Dynasty 2/9/24

(EAW intro plays.)

(As Friday Night Dynasty faded onto the air, it is brought quickly into a video recap, which was in regards to the 2024 King Of Elite marquee event, and most importantly, the marquee Dynasty matches to have taken place on said event. Jay Jerry Johnson defeated Hans Grayson after weeks of heinous acts. Drake Armstrong managed to narrowly escape while not even under his own power in order to defeat Cy Henderson in a Steel Cage match. To end a trilogy of matches, Ryan Wilson finally defeats Xander Payne one last time in Chained Fury III. Three Elitists went at it for a shot at the World Heavyweight Championship at Operation: Doomsday, as Ms. Extreme beats both Chris Elite and Milli Banks. It ended up being a bad night for KAI-ZEN, as Ronan Malosi successfully defended the Interwire Championship against Shinzo Sasaki, while Michael Machina successfully defended against Prince Tohru. The Jaded Hearts walked out of yet another marquee event, the Unified Tag Team Champions, as they defeated Donovan Duke and Mia Santoro. In the night one main event, Myles would successfully defend his World Heavyweight Championship for the first time against both Bronson Daniels and Jake Smith, and in the main event of night two, Joso who represented Dynasty would go on to defeat Alex Myers and PJ Hendrx in the finals of the 2024 King Of Elite tournament. As the recap officially concludes, the broadcast would come onto the air as the camera pointed to the commentary table with Stew-O, Jake Mercer, and Flannery McCoy all seated down.)

Stew-O: AND WELCOME EVERYBODY TO FRIDAY NIGHT DYNASTY HERE TONIGHT, OFFICIALLY ONE WEEK REMOVED FROM THE FIRST MARQUEE EVENT OF THE NEW YEAR, KING OF ELITE! We are LIVE from the Stadium Maradi in Maradi, Niger, as I am Stew-O, sitting along with Flannery McCoy and Jake Mercer as always.

Flannery McCoy: What a weekend we experienced just last week, championship matches, grudge matches, rivalries finally coming to an end, and of course, the King Of Elite tournament had finally come to a rightful conclusion!

Jake Mercer: AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, NOT ONLY DID THE GREAT ‘KAISER’ RONAN MALOSI SUCCESSFULLY DEFEND THE INTERWIRE CHAMPIONSHIP LAST WEEKEND, BUT WE ALSO GOT TO WATCH BRONSON DANIELS FAIL ONCE MORE TO CLAIM THE WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP! Life is SO good right now! I am feeling absolutely ALIVE here tonight!

Flannery McCoy: *sighs* We can see that, Jake.

Stew-O: But, let’s not waste any time getting right into it, as we are opening up the night with the recently crowned 2024 King Of Elite tournament winner, the ‘New Era’ himself; JOSO!

(The camera would fade over and to the stage, as ‘Trophies’ by Drake would hit the speakers of the arena to an explosion, an absolute eruption of both cheers, but boos as well. The crowd was equally mixed, there was no true reaction outweighing the other as the winner of the 2024 King Of Elite tournament, the man who calls himself the New Era would make his way out onto the stage; Joso. Fitting the vibe of the new King Of Elite, Joso wore a crown on his head, wearing a more formal attire than what he usually wears as he would begin to make his way down the ramp.)

Stephie Love: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, PLEASE HELP ME INTRODUCE AT THIS TIME, TONIGHT… HE IS THE WINNER OF THE 2024 KING OF ELITE TOURNAMENT… HE IS THE ‘NEW ERA!!!!!!’ JOOOOOOSSSSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stew-O: At King Of Elite just last week, in a highly anticipated triple threat finals match of the King Of Elite tournament, only one Elitist was going to watch as their destiny became a reality, only one would realise their moment, and that man is here tonight, who was representing the Dynasty brand and all of Elite Answers Wrestling; Joso!

Flannery McCoy: Alex Myers and PJ Hendrx both put up a fight just as much as Joso did last week, it was a poetic triple threat knowing the history that the three Elitists have with each other, but in the end everything that Joso had ever said came true, and he stands before us now as the King Of Elite.

Jake Mercer: THAT’S MY GOAT! THAT’S THE NEW ERA! THE LEADER, THE KING OF ELITE ANSWERS WRESTLING! I have been Joso’s number one since DAY ONE, even when he was going up against The Kaiser, even when he was new here, I was always rooting behind him every step of the way and now look at him! I’m so proud.

(The crowd continued to make their voices heard as Joso made his way down to the ringside area. He would look over, being handed a microphone by a timekeeper as he took it all in. He climbed up onto the apron, wiping his feet on the apron before he would enter into the ring and begin to pace around. The crowd was chanting his name. The cheers, the boos, it was all polarising, but for a reason. That is how Joso has always been in EAW. As ‘Trophies’ faded away, he would lift his microphone up to speak his mind…)

Joso: I won.

One Side Of The Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Other Side Of The Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(Joso simply smirked at this.)

Joso: I love it. I love all of it. You guys can love me, you guys can hate me. You guys can adore me, you guys can despise me, but at the end of the day, each, and every single one of you now needs to respect me, and respect everything that I have done, everything that I have achieved, and accomplished. From being the winner of the New Era Classic tournament back in 2022, to winning the Interwire Championship, to beating some of the best of the very best that there has to offer, being the ironman of the Grand Rampage match, competing in matches such as Cash In The Vault, such as Anarchy In The Arena, whatever it may have been, and now, here we are, as I stand before all of you, as I stand in the middle of this professional wrestling… with this microphone in my hand… with this crown on the very top of my head… I now stand as not only the LEADER of the New Era, but the KING of the New Era, not only the LEADER of the Elite, but the KING of Elite, and I did it all on my own.

Joso: I have carved my own path from the very beginning, every single step of the way, I have done this all on my own, this has all been because of me, because of the nonstop improvement that I have made, being able to adapt and evolve with the company that I have finally engraved my legacy into and this whole entire time, I did it in spite of the people who wanted to hold me back, in spite of the people who thought I was handed everything, in spite of everything that people had to say about me, I am now the winner of the 2024 King Of Elite, and it is all because of me, and now, I have a future World Heavyweight Championship match in my foresight, I am going to become the World Heavyweight Champion and no one could stop me… because it is my destiny.

(Joso would reach upward, as he grabbed onto the crown that was placed around his head, he slowly brought it off before he lowered his hand with the crown in it, eyeing down at it with a smirk on his face, lifting the microphone back up to continue to speak.)

Joso: Alex Myers, PJ Hendrx, they both tried their hardest, I will give them that; they are two of the greatest Elitists of today’s era alongside myself, and they will hopefully be seeing the same success as I one day… but it was never going to come at my expense, it was never going to be at my own destiny. I have known those two not only more, but longer than anyone else within this company and now I can proudly stand here today and say that I have surpassed them, that in every which way I am better than them and I am above them. They aren’t on my level. They are great, but not great enough, they weren’t better than me. There is so much on my mind right now but none of that matters. What matters is that the crown is in my hand. What matters is I can place this crown onto my head and I can consider myself the King. There is no one that’ll be able to stop me EVER AGAIN. No one’s going to be able to get in my way EVER AGAIN. Love me or hate me, but I AM the King.

Joso: What is next for me on my path to the World Heavyweight Championship I don’t know yet, this time is going to be looked upon as filler, I won the King Of Elite tournament, I have practically set my destiny in stone and I am going to be standing here sooner rather than later as the new World Heavyweight Championship. But for now, I will wait to see what comes next. For now, I will await to see what is next for the King, what is next for the New Era, the greatest that this company will ever see, the fastest rising Elitist in the history of this company. But whatever it may be, I am going to carve my own path, whatever it may be, I am going to do whatever it may take to make it to the World Heavyweight Championship match on top of the world.

(The crowd continued to cheer even louder, to the point where it was starting to outweigh the boos that could also be heard. Joso had a huge smirk on his face as he took a deep breath in, he fiddled with the microphone, before he would then finish this off…)

Joso: This is the New Era, the New Era is officially in full swing, in full gear, and I am going to be the one at the helm, with the steering wheel in hand. It’s my time now.

(The crowd cheers even more. Joso finished his speech after winning the King Of Elite tournament, and he lowered the microphone as he went to leave the ring…)




(Until ‘il vento d’oro’ hit.)

Jake Mercer: …

Stew-O: This is an interesting development here!

Flannery McCoy: It looks like someone has something to say!

(Joso looked on with the most confused and disgusted face that one could ever imagine, as MITSU would make his way out onto the stage! He had a microphone in hand as well, as he began to make his way down the ramp. Joso was seething, as MITSU would then get up onto the apron and enter into the ring. ‘il vento d’oro’ would fade out from there, as he’d begin to speak to Joso.)

MITSU: I’m sure you know why I’m out here.

Joso: :jr:

MITSU: ANd I know you wouldn’t deny it, either.

Joso: :comeagain:

MITSU: I want you. In a match. Straight up. No bullshit.

Joso: :wtf:

MITSU: Come on, accept it-

Joso: Who the absolute FUCK do you think you are?!

Crowd: :mjlol:

(MITSU simply sighed.)

MITSU: You know who I am, Joso, and you know why I am out here, and I am not going to be the one to sugarcoat it, and I don’t want you to sugarcoat it either. You can’t deny how talented I am, how skilled I am. You can’t deny just how big of an Elitist that I am and that I can be. You have been one of the faces of the Dynasty brand for a long time now but it is finally time that I take that spot away from you and I take it for my own, exactly where I belong to be, and where I have earned to be.

(Joso… simply laughed right in MITSU’s face.)

Joso: Great speech, now name me the last time you have actually beaten some of worth. Actually, name me the last time you actually won a match point blank period. Name me the last time you actually tried weekly and not just for an opportunity on a big stage that you STILL end up losing at the end of the day no matter how hard you try to avoid failure. You sound fucking stupid. No one wants you here. No one wants an inconsistent piece of shit on this brand. The fans don’t care about you, the commentators don’t care about you, the people don’t care about you, and most importantly, I don’t care about you. I don’t need to give you what you want because you’re not worth my time. Your biggest move is a flapjack. Fuck off, get out of my ring, and get out of my face.

(MITSU just stood there, taking it all in. Joso walked away, shoving right past him but MITSU put his hand on Joso’s chest, stopping him and pulling him back face to face.)

MITSU: Give me… the match that I want. And I want it at Operation: Doomsday.

Crowd: !!!!!!!

Joso: No damn. The answer is fucking no.

(Joso tried to shove past him again… but MITSU held him back once more.)

MITSU: You’re going to give me the match that I want, and you’re going to give it to me for Operation: Doomsday, and at the end of the day, when the match does happen, I am going to beat you, and I am going to leave you a broken mess. I am going to prove to you, and the whole entire world, what I already know; that I belong to be in the position that you are in, and I have earned and I have deserved every last opportunity that you have simply been handed in your entire career. At the end of the day, you will face me, and you will lose to me, as I stand on top of the world instead of you.

Joso: …

(Joso scoffed.)

Joso: :mjlol: Sure, bud. Sure. Whatever you say.

(And again, Joso shoved right past MITSU. MITSU didn’t hold him back this time around, as Joso exited out onto the apron, before jumping down to the ringside mats, as he began to make his way up the ramp.)

Jake Mercer: Damn. That’s tuff… MITSU PACK. :ripbozo:

Flannery McCoy: JAKE!

Stew-O: Well, It looks like MITSU has made his statement known, he wants to face Joso at Operation: Doomsday, but the winner of the King Of Elite tournament doesn’t look to be too interested in it! We will have to see how this develops.

(The camera would then fade out into commercials.)

(A commercial plays for Hot Pockets, featuring Alex Myers.)

(Friday Night Dynasty returns from commercials, and ‘Deli’ by Ice Spice is playing. Tyrone Montgomery is in the ring, smiling from ear to ear. His theme song fades and the fans cheer.)

Tyrone Montgomery: Good evening, EAW Universe. It’s always great getting the chance to come out here and not only see you but speak with you.

Crowd: :blessed:

Tyrone Montgomery: Your enthusiasm is always noted. But honestly, I couldn’t be any more happy with how everything has been turning out. It’s been an amazing season seventeen all around and I am proud of all that we have been able to do. King of Elite is done and I must say, every match of ours hit it out the park. We have some exciting developments to emerge from it, and while the talk of the town this week may be which Showdown and Voltage talents got traded, Friday night is always going to belong to us. Of course, Joso is now the new King of Elite, and once again, I extend my congratulations out to him. It’s been incredible seeing him blossom, and being a two-time tournament winner is no easy feat. For him to be able to do that while still having a relatively-young career is nothing short of amazing. I just like every single last one of you look forward to seeing what he can do with such an immense opportunity in his hands.

Tyrone Montgomery: Speaking of opportunities, though… there is an announcement that I want to make.

(Excitement builds from the fans.)

Tyrone Montgomery: Ah, I can see that grabbed your interest. Trust me, you all are going to love this.

(Tyrone chuckles before continuing.)

Tyrone Montgomery: King of Elite may be over and the tournament has concluded, but that doesn’t mean that opportunities are over and done with. Of course, every Elitist is having their minds set on Pain for Pride and doing everything they can to end their season off with a bang, and I know that for many of them, they envision a world title being a part of that. Likewise, we have Elitists here who have been waiting for their breakthrough moment and have been doing everything they can to emerge as the next star everyone should be watching. Trust me, I’ve been taking note of everything, and it is not lost on me how so many here on Dynasty are trying to position themselves to be champions, be it for the first time or to add another one to their resume. This time of year always seems to bring out an unmistakable fire out of everyone, and I for one prefer to see that fire continue to roar rather than kill it. That is why I have come to a decision to present the ultimate opportunity to many here.

Tyrone Montgomery: The best part? It has never before been seen or done in EAW. Because at Operation: Doomsday we are introducing a new stipulation…

Crowd: 👀

Tyrone Montgomery: … And it is the Iron Survivor Challenge.

(The arena buzzes in curiosity, wondering what such a match type entails.)

Stew-O: Iron Survivor? That’s definitely something!

(Tyrone looks around, seeing the fans’ reactions and nods.)

Tyrone Montgomery: It’s similar to an Ironman match. Same basis. Whoever scores the most points in the end of the time limit wins. However, it starts to deviat from there. Instead of it being one-on-one, we will have five Elitists in total competing in the match. Two people start, and every five minutes, a new Elitist will enter until everyone is in the ring. Elitist can gain points by pinfall, submission, or if they happen to be a victim of disqualifcation. An Elitist who is pinned, submitted or is disqualified gets sent into the penalty box and stays there for ninety seconds. Whoever is able to score the most points will be dubbed the Iron Survivor, but in the event of a tie? Then we go into a sudden death overtime between the two Elitists who have the most points.

Tyrone Montgomery: Hopefully, you guys are able to get the gist of that. 😅 It is a bit more complex, but it is exciting nonetheless, and here on Dynasty, we always seek to be innovative and push boundaries. But with that being said, we will be having two of these at Operation: Doomsday. The first one will be for the New Breed Championship, and Michael Machina will be defending the title in this first-of-its-kind match against BRAE, Cody Maverick, Mig De Decker and Rory Slate!

(The fans cheer, liking the sound of that.)

Tyrone Montgomery: All four of the challengers have continued to be impressive, and there’s no denying their hunger. This match will surely be a good fit of them, just ike it will be for the defending champion who has been nothing but dominant all throughout his time with the championship. As for the other Iron Survivor match… the winner of that will get to stake their claim for any word championship of their choosing. And when I say any, I mean it. It doesn’t just have to be our World Heavyweight Championship.

(The fans wait on eagerly before Tyrone carries on.)

Tyrone Montgomery: For that match, it will be Jake Smith, Bronson Daniels, Xander Payne, Chirs Elite, and Milli Banks!

(The arena erupts in a sea of cheers.)

Tyrone Montgomery: All five Elitists have made it known that they want to be a world champion this season. So, what better way of getting that opportunity than by having this match? Ultimately, only one of them will be able to earn the right to call themselves the Iron Survivor and get their world title match. It’ll be exciting to see who will be able to win in the end. Operation: Doomsday is going to be an incredible show, and we’re going to have ours an incredible rest of season seventeen!

(Tyrone grins, and ‘Deli’ hits again. He leaves the ring and the fans cheer, liking what they heard!)

Stew-O: What an announcement! A new match stipulation, and we will be having two matches contested under its rules!

Jake Mercer: Talk about upping the ante! Wow! I’m just as excited as everyone!

Flannery McCoy: Same for me! This is going to be incredible!

(Dynasty fades to commercials.)

(An advertisement plays for Operation: Doomsday, with the new Iron Survivor Challenges being highlighted.)

(Friday Night Dynasty returns to the ring as Stephie Love is seen standing by with a microphone in hand.)

Stephie Love: The following SINGLES MATCH is a contest scheduled for…

Crowd: ONE FALL!!!

(‘Geto’s True Identity’ by Yoshimasa Terui begins to play as Chiyo Gedo is seen beginning to make his way out. He has a determined expression on his face as he begins to make his way down the ramp.)

Stephie Love: Introducing first… from Osaka, Japan… weighing in at 170 pounds… ‘THE FACELESS TERMINATOR’… CHIYO GEDO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(‘The Story Of Yomiyama’ by Kow Otani is then heard following that as a determined AIRI Evergarden is seen making her way out. She looks ready to go and ready to get a win as she makes her way toward the ring.)

Stephie Love: And his opponent… from Chiba, Japan… weighing in at 170 pounds… ‘THE INFINITY’… AIRI EVERGARDEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(DING! DING! DING!)

Stew-O: This match is officially underway- AND RIGHT OUT OF THE GATE IT’S AIRI EVERGARDEN THAT SHOOTS OUT OF HER CORNER AND CONNECTS WITH A RUNNING KNEE TO THE SKULL OF CHIYO GETO! CHIYO IS TAKEN BY SURPRISE AND DROPPED TO THE GROUND AND AIRI DOES NOT WASTE ANYTIME MOUNTING ON TOP OF HIM AND BEGINNING TO NAIL REPEATED PUNCHES AGAINST HIS SKULL!

Flannery McCoy: Chiyo is trying to block the attack while he can but AIRI is absolutely relentless right now knowing the disadvantage that she could possibly be at if she allowed Chiyo to take advantage of this situation. Chiyo manages to slip away though and roll toward the ropes to create some distance between the two. He grabs a hold of them and begins to make his way up to his feet before it’s too late, BUT AIRI RUSHES FORWARD AND GOES FOR A CLOTHESLINE TO SEND HIM OVER THE TOP ROPE AND OUT OF THE RING- NO! CHIYO MANAGES TO MOVE OUT OF THE WAY AND SEND HER THROUGH THE MIDDLE ROPE INSTEAD!

Jake Mercer: Chiyo is hurt as he staggers back for a moment but turns himself around toward AIRI, BUT BEFORE HE CAN DO ANYTHING, IT’S AIRI THAT MANAGES TO RECOVER BEFORE HIM AND CONNECT WITH A ROPE-ASSISTED ENZUIGIRI WHILE SHE’S ON THE APRON TO HIS FACE! Chiyo staggers backward, trying to get back into this match but realizing just how difficult that is with a competitor like AIRI Evergarden, AS AIRI LEAPS ONTO THE ROPES AND LAUNCHES HERSELF OFF- NO! CHIYO RUSHES FORWARD AND SWEEPS THE LEGS OF AIRI WHICH COMPLETELY TAKE HER OUT AND SEND HER TUMBLING OUT OF THE RING AND TOWARD THE RINGSIDE AREA!

Stew-O: AIRI is laid out but is quickly trying to get back up, and she realizes just how much the tides have turned right now and the position that she finds herself in. She gets back up and turns around… JUST FOR CHIYO TO LEAP OVER THE TOP ROPE AND FLATTEN AIRI WITH A TOPE CON HILO TO COMPLETELY LAY HER OUT! AIRI is hurt and Chiyo is quick to grab her by the head and roll her back into the ring. He then climbs onto the apron before beginning to make his way up to the top rope… LAUNCHING OFF AND TAKING HER BACK DOWN TO THE GROUND WITH A DIVING CROSSBODY AS SHE WAS GETTING BACK UP TO HER FEET!

Stew-O: Chiyo takes a moment to recover while he has the opportunity, realizing how quick of a pace this match has gone so far. AIRI is back up and Chiyo is quick to run to the ropes and back… SPINNING BACK ELBOW! HE’S GOING FOR ‘HEAT SEEKER’ STRAIGHT TO THE FACE-

Flannery McCoy: BUT AIRI MANAGES TO SIDESTEP OUT OF THE WAY AND SEND CHIYO TOWARD THE OPPOSITE PAIR OF ROPES! Chiyo rebounds… AS AIRI RUNS FORWARD AND CONNECTS WITH A HIGH KNEE TO THE FACE AS HE WAS REBOUNDING! Chiyo is pressed up against the ropes, barely managing to keep himself up, but that’s before AIRI takes him by the head and rolls him down onto the canvas with a Snapmare! AIRI then turns around and runs to the ropes and back… BEFORE LEAPING INTO THE AIR AND CONNECTING WITH A FRONT DROPKICK TO A SEATED CHIYO’S CHEST!

Jake Mercer: AVOIDED! CHIYO GETS BACK UP JUST IN TIME AND SENDS AIRI BACK OVER THE TOP ROPE! CHIYO ROLLS BACK UP TO HIS FEET AND RUSHES TOWARD HER…

Stew-O: JUST TO BE CAUGHT WITH A ‘511 KINDERHEIM’! THE SLINGSHOT CUTTER CONNECTS AND AIRI IS QUICK TO ROLL CHIYO OVER AND HOOK THE LEG!

OOONNNEEE!!!

TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!

TTTTTTHHHHHHRRRRR-

Flannery McCoy: CHIYO GETS THE SHOULDER UP JUST IN TIME! AIRI rolls back up to her feet and does not waste any time picking up the pace, bringing Chiyo back up… AND WHAT A SHOW OF STRENGTH! JUST BARELY MANAGING TO LIFT HIM UP INTO AN ELECTRIC CHAIR POSITION! THIS LOOKS LIKE AN ATTEMPT AT ‘UZUMAKI’ RIGHT HERE-

Jake Mercer: BUT AS AIRI SPINS HIM AROUND INTO THE SITOUT POWERBOMB, CHIYO REVERSES IT AND GRABS HER BY THE HEAD BEFORE SPIKING HER DOWN WITH THE ‘FATAL HEAD TRAUMA’! THE DDT CONNECTS AND THIS TIME IT’S CHIYO THAT’S GOING FOR THE PIN!

OOONNNEEE!!!

TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!

TTTTTHHHHHHRRRRRRRRRREE-

Stew-O: BUT IT’S AIRI THAT KICKS OUT OF THAT! Chiyo knows that this match is in reach and whatever he can do now he needs to do quickly before AIRI takes advantage of this. Chiyo makes his way toward one of the corners, patiently waiting for AIRI to get back up to her feet, looking for something…

Flannery McCoy: AS HE ROLLS FORWARD FOR ‘UNEXPECTED WHIPLASH’!

Flannery McCoy: BUT AIRI CATCHES HIM AGAINST THE JAW WITH A SUPERKICK! CHIYO IS TAKEN DOWN AND AIRI LIFTS HIM BACK UP TO HIS FEET… ‘ETERNAL SHRILL THRENODY’! CHIYO IS PLANTED DOWN TO THE GROUND AND AIRI IS NOT DONE HERE AS SHE BRINGS HIM BACK UP TO HIS FEET!

Jake Mercer: ‘THE 3RD IMPACT’ TO CHIYO-

Stew-O: BUT CHIYO MANAGES TO SLIP OUT OF HARM’S WAY BEFORE TURNING AROUND… SECOND ATTEMPT AT ‘HEAT SEEKER’ CONNECTS RIGHT ACROSS THE FACE OF AIRI! AIRI IS DOWN AND CHIYO LIFTS HER BACK UP!

Flannery McCoy: ‘SWIFT ENDING’! SWIFT ENDING CONNECTS! CHIYO WITH THE SOMERSAULT BEFORE PLANTING AIRI EVERGARDEN DOWN! AIRI IS OUT AND CHIYO HOOKS THE LEG AND TRIES FOR THE PIN ATTEMPT! WILL THIS BE IT RIGHT HERE?! WILL CHIYO MANAGE TO COME OUT ON TOP WITH THE WIN?!

OOONNNEEE!!!

TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!

TTTTTHHHHHRRRRRRREEEEEEEEE!!!!!

(DING! DING! DING!)

(‘Geto’s True Identity’ begins to play through the speakers as Chiyo Gedo begins to get back up to his feet. The referee raises his hand in victory as he celebrates his success here tonight.)

Stephie Love: Here is your winner… CHIYO GEDO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stew-O: What a win Chiyo just got here tonight! AIRI tried but at the end of the day it was Chiyo that managed to get the better of her and come out on top.

Flannery McCoy: Valiant effort being shown and it’s Chiyo that comes out with the victory. Congratulations on his victory!

(A commercial plays for the NBA All-Star Game.)

(Friday Night Dynasty returns to show a shot of the backstage area of the Stadium Maradi where the camera focuses on an interview area, with Dynasty’s designated backstage correspondent Michael Belfort standing by. He has a smile on his face and a microphone in hand as the scene begins to settle in he begins to speak.)

Michael Belfort: Welcome back, and what a start it has been to Friday Night Dynasty so far! We have come right out of the gate with the build to Operation: Doomsday and more specifically, as you may have heard, some new match confirmations. We saw Tyrone Montgomery just announce the Iron Survivor match, which is being introduced to EAW for the first time at the Marquee Event. There will be two matches of the stipulation taking place, one to determine who will be getting a future World Championship opportunity, along with one with the New Breed Championship on the line. This leads me to my guest at this time, please welcome… the New Breed Champion, Michael Machina!

(The crowd gives a mixed reaction as the camera pans over to Michael Machina as he is seen making his way into the scene with the New Breed Championship resting on his shoulder. He has a smirk on his face as he eyes Belfort, who continues to speak.)

Michael Belfort: Michael, thank you for joining us tonight.

Michael Machina: Of course.

Michael Belfort: First off I wanted to get your thoughts on King of Elite last week and your title defense. You successfully beat KAI-ZEN’s Prince Tohru to retain your New Breed Championship in a dominant performance all around. What do you have to say about that?

(Michael chuckles to himself, a pause before he responds.)

Michael Machina: I mean, what needs to be said about it? I told Prince Tohru straight up that the only person who can determine when this New Breed Championship reign is coming to an end is the Champion himself. He may have been born into generational wealth, he may have a mound of success and recognition that he accumulated before joining Elite Answers Wrestling, and I can’t deny that he put up a fight. But none of that was going to save him from the generational ass-kicking that I ended up giving him, and he found out real quick that there was a Bullet From Hell with his name on it and that is what happened at King of Elite. Everything that happened that night was nothing that wasn’t expected. It was business as usual for me as it always is when I have to defend this title. I hope this is a proper warning sent to anyone else who wants to make the mistake of thinking that they have one over on me because just like Tohru, just like the trail of bodies behind him, they all find out soon enough just exactly the type of person that I am.

Michael Belfort: Speaking of potential challengers, I’m sure you’ve heard the announcement…

(Belfort pauses, as Machina’s grin grows on his face.)

Michael Machina: Go ahead.

Michael Belfort: Tyrone Montgomery announcing the New Breed Championship Iron Survivor. I’m sure everybody is clamoring to know your thoughts on that.

Michael Machina: It’s interesting, for sure. I was anticipating a big fight feel for Operation: Doomsday now that we’ve kicked things into full gear and I was certainly not disappointed. In fact, this was everything that I could’ve asked for, and I’m glad that Tyrone took me into consideration for such a match with my title on the line. I’d like to assume it’s because he thinks I’m one of the few who could handle it, and with that, he’d be right. I don’t think there was any doubt that I’d be up for the challenge, and I’ve only wanted the best for the New Breed Championship in order to elevate the New Breed division in its entirety and show everyone exactly what it is all about. I’ve mentioned extensively that the past few Champions before us have not done a good job upholding those standards, but thankfully as you can see, starting with The New Breed of Legends, change has begun. Change has truly begun to take form and I’m glad that we are all witness to it because now moving onto the main point… while elevating this title is indeed the main priority that I focus on, I certainly can’t forget my purpose of establishing myself at the very top of the food chain here in EAW.

Michael Machina: The particulars of the match are real interesting and something that I have never faced before. We already know who’s going to be announced and I could run them down right now but it doesn’t matter, all I know is that what happens regardless of that is not going to be much different than it has always been. I am still going to win, and I am still going to be at the very top, disturbed by no one. Try as you may but nothing will be able to change that whatsoever. It’s exciting times that much I can say for certain, but one thing doesn’t change and it’s that I am the one that runs things around here. I am not just a cog in the wheel, I am the engine that runs this vehicle. I will continue onward the way that I always have and while at Operation: Doomsday I will be walking into unknown territory that makes no difference.

Michael Belfort: Do you have any final words before we close this interview off?

Michael Machina: The names have already been made official and the Elitists have already thrown in their ballot. But just know that whoever wants to step into the Iron Survivor with the New Breed of Legends then you can be my guest. Just know that for each person that’s a bullet with their name on it, and they’ll find out that they fucked with the wrong person come Operation: Doomsday when I walk in AND walk out as the New Breed Champion.

Michael Belfort: :wow: Michael, once again, thank you for joining us.

(Machina turns and makes his way out of the scene, leaving Belfort to his lonesome as it’s the last shot seen before Friday Night Dynasty from there begins to fade out.)

Stephie Love: This match is scheduled for… ONE FALL!

Crowd: ONE FALL!

(‘Under The Tree’ by SiM hits the speakers as Shisui Tategami makes his way onto the ramp, looking determined as over. He quickly makes his way to the ring, unable to wait for the start of this match.)

Flannery McCoy: Shisui Tategami coming off a win 2 weeks ago over Chiyo Gedo. Some call it lucky, others call it skill. What matters is that he is looking to make the same mark against a very, very tough opponent in BRAE. Can he do that or will he find his match again?

(‘Duel of The Fates | EPIC VERSION’ by Samuel Kim Music fades in after, BRAE making his way out of the back not long after. He looks pumped up and ready to give the beatdown of a lifetime. After posing like he usually does, he walks down to the ramp.)

Jake Mercer: And here comes someone that has barely lost anything ever since his arrival in this company! BRAE! I think he stands at 3 losses in singles competition, one of which he already made right! And tonight, he wants to keep that momentum going! Will Shisui be what stops him?

(Ding! Ding! Ding!)

Stew-O: And this match has officially started out! BRAE and Shisui staring each other down from opposite sides of the ring. They are both here to make a statement against each other. A big war of words between the two and it seems to have gotten to Tategami’s head like Mig’s words just weeks ago. But right now, he needs to keep his head in the game and focus on the man in the ring right there.

Flannery McCoy: And it seems like he does have his mind on that man, hyper-focused on BRAE as they both slowly start to circle the ring to get closer to each other. And Tategami is showing no signs of making this a fun fight for the Imperial Symphony. He quickly moves in and throws a massive shoot kick to the side of his knee! It certainly shakes up BRAE who takes a small step backwards after.

Jake Mercer: But he doesn’t stay behind for long as he gets back in this, looking to get back into this with a lock-up once again but a second rounding kick to his knee sends him stepping back a bit yet again. But this time it seems to annoy BRAE instead of just catching him off-guard. He walks back into the lock-up into ANOTHER kick but this time BRAE checks it! And now Tategami is sent walking back to recover his leg from it!

Stew-O: BRAE however isn’t waiting for him to move back in as he runs straight at him and takes him down by sweeping both legs! He mounts on top of him and just starts punching away at the face of Shisui! This man is possessed right now and the disrespect from his foe is making him go all out right now! Right hand after right hand, a vein popping out of his head as he turns red from the adrenaline!

Flannery McCoy: Shisui Tategami managing to roll BRAE off of him to escape the barrage of fists hitting his face! But the Imperial Symphony is not letting him get far as he catches him while he is trying to get up into a front facelock and starts to throw knees right up into the skull of Tategami! It’s like he wants to concuss this man! But Shisui manages to push BRAE away from him for the time being! But he is STILL seeing red!

Jake Mercer: But BRAE moves back in to look for even more punishment after Shisui moves into the corner trying to get away! He looks to start stomping away at the gut of the Banished Devil! And it’s working! There seems to be no escape for him at all! The referee starts the count for BRAE to let go and right before the 5 hits, he stops the stomping and lets go of his opponent! At least he is following rules in this beatdown!

Stew-O: BRAE taking his distance as the referee forces him to let loose of Tategami! Shisui using the opened up opportunity to take a quick breather! After that barrage of punishment from the Imperial Symphony, I don’t think it’s shocking that he needs a little break. That was literally just battering a man in broad daylight! BRAE turns his back towards the man to show that he is NOT afraid of him and what he can do!

Flannery McCoy: But that might be a mistake, because as he turns around, Tategami runs in and looks to level him with the ground with a massive shoot kick to the chest of the Imperial Symphony! But he does not go down! He doesn’t go down at all, it seems like he just tanks it and remains on his feet, letting out a warcry for Shisui to throw his best shot again! BRAE is insane!

Jake Mercer: And it only seems to fire up Shisui as well as he throws an even more deadly shoot kick to the chest of his opponent! BRAE however still just remained standing after that massive kick! His chest is seeing red from the kicks but that might just be the adrenaline! You know how red he gets when he is motivated to kick somebody’s ass! He’s challenging Tategami to have one more go at trying to take him down!

Stew-O: And he does attempt it yet again! A third shoot kicks, and BRAE slowly drops to his knees! But he is still seeing red and screaming at Shisui for more! He is enduring this punishment as a test for himself! I think he wants to prove that even when he allows his opponent to take some shots, that he can beat them perfectly fine afterwards! Tategami can only keep kicking that chest until BRAE gives out!

Flannery McCoy: That’s exactly what he is going to do right there! A massive shoot kick to the kneeling BRAE! But the Imperial Symphony just remains on his knees as he screams even louder to take him down completely! This man is a mad man and I don’t know how Shisui isn’t trembling in fear from the sheer fighting spirit that his opponent is showing him right now! But he has to keep going and not be deterred by this otherwise he gives BRAE what he wants!

Jake Mercer: And another massive shoot kick thrown towards the chest of BRAE! He is looking to make that chest bright red at the end of this matchup right here! BRAE falls backwards but he is slowly coming back up to challenge Shisui even more… BUT THE BANISHED DEVIL SAW THAT COMING AS HE ALREADY RAN TOWARDS THE ROPES AND RAN RIGHT AT BRAE TO HIT HIM WITH THAT ‘BLADE OF WIND’! PK ACROSS THE CHEST INTO THE COVER!

OOONNNNNEEEEEEE!
TTWWW—

Stew-O: KICK OUT WITH AUTHORITY FROM BRAE! He nearly sent Tategami flying away from him with the force behind that kick out! Tategami can’t believe that BRAE just kicked out that move! But he has to continue with the match before he starts to give the advantage away to the Imperial Symphony! He goes to the corner and waits for him to get back to his feet! BRAE is also looking to make his way to the corner to pull himself up!

Flannery McCoy: Tategami runs at BRAE as he walks out of the corner, LOOKING TO SEND HIM INTO IT WITH THE ‘GETSUGA KENSHOU’! SHOTGUN DROPKICK! BUT WAIT HE IS NOT DONE AT ALL! He runs back to the same corner he came from to rebound it and chain THAT INTO THE ‘KAGUTSUCHI’! CORNER METEORA! He drags the Imperial Symphony out of the corner and covers him again after two massive moves!

ONNNNNEEEEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWOOO!

Jake Mercer: BUT BRAE STILL KICKS OUT WITH POWER BEHIND IT! CAN YOU BELIEVE IT? Because Shisui Tategami most certainly can’t! He is stunned but he starts to lift BRAE to his feet, he is looking to follow it up with another big move! He has him under his legs looking to hook the arms above his head for that massive ‘Giga Drill break’! But no! BRAE sends a punch to the kneecap of his opponent to stop him from going through!

Stew-O: And now he lifts him up onto his shoulders walking towards the middle of the ring before he drops him down onto his knees for a Gut Check! A big move that damages that already damaged gut area from Tategami from earlier! BRAE has damaged two vital parts of the body and it’s obvious because Shisui is not looking the best right now! He is holding his gut in pain as he rolls over onto his back! He may be in danger!

Flannery McCoy: And BRAE shoots up back to his feet and he is seeing red again! He is looking like a man even more possessed as he just was! Look at his eyes! He takes his distance from Tategami but that rage in his eyes, you can feel him about to hit something devastating! AND HE SUDDENLY TURNS AROUND AND RUNS UP TO HIM! HE LEAPS HIGH UP IN THE AIR! THAT H-BOMB! ‘RED DEATH’ CONNECTS AS HE FALLS INTO THE COVER!

ONNNNNEEEEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWOOO!
TTTHHRRRRR—

Jake Mercer: BUT BRAE PUSHES HIMSELF OUT OF THE COVER! He’s standing over a downed Tategami! He looks like he wants to kill that man right here! And with that rage in his eyes… HE DROPS HIS ELBOW DOWN ON TATEGAMI AGAIN FOR ANOTHER ‘RED DEATH’! A SECOND ONE INTO THE COVER!

OONNNNEEEEEEEEEEE!
TTWWWWWWWWWOOO!
TTTTTHHHHRRRRR—

Stew-O: BUT BRAE AGAIN PUSHES HIMSELF OUT OF THE COVER! HE IS SCREAMING AT TATEGAMI! He is telling him that this is a battle he should not have picked! This is a battle that BRAE was destined to win! And it seems to be exactly like that… BECAUSE BRAE DOES IT A THIRD TIME! A THIRD ‘RED DEATH’ TO PUT THE EXCLAMATION MARK BEHIND THIS MATCH! AND THE COVER TO FINISH THIS OFF!

OOOONNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TTTTTTTWWWWWWWWWOOOOOO!
TTTTTHHHHHHHHHRRRRRRREEEE!

(Ding! Ding! Ding!)

Stephie Love: Here is your winner… BRAEEEEEEEEEEE!

Flannery McCoy: Oh my… Three Red Deaths to finish off Shisui Tategami… Don’t you think that’s a bit overkill to hit a man while he is down three times? I mean, I get that the words exchanged weren’t exactly pretty but this is definitely unneeded. Well, maybe it was to send a message, because that message has been sent out to everyone. Don’t mess with that mad man right there!

Jake Mercer: You mess with BRAE, you get battered like Shisui was battered right there! He did good but the sheer brutality shown by his opponent tonight was just way too much to overcome. The Imperial Symphony is a man to be reckoned with and if you find yourself facing him, you better watch out and do so respectfully, because you will be taken care of!

(BRAE gets his hand raised by the referee after beating Shisui Tategami, putting an end to this match with 3 uses of his deadly finishing maneuver.)

(Back from break, “True Love” by CFO$ hits. The fans boo, already anticipating the women who will be coming out. Sure enough, Kassidy Heart and Sienna Jade step out, arms linked with one another while holding their respective tag titles in their free hands.)

Stephie Love: Ladies and gentlemen, introducing at this time… the EAW Unified Tag Team Champions… THE JAAAAADED HEEEEEEAAAAAARTS!

Stew-O: Well, it’s another successful title defense in the books. #DoMia fought valiantly against Sienna and Kassidy, but their best was simply not good enough. The Unified Tag Team Championships remain firmly in the Jaded Hearts’ grasp, and they look to continue their dominance as a team.

Jake Mercer: At this point, who can stop them? Kassidy and Sienna have had an iron grip on the division ever since they won the titles back in October, and try as othe teams might, they just haven’t been able to beat them. La Familia couldn’t. #DoMia couldn’t. So, who’s next at this rate?!

Flannery McCoy: The Jaded Hearts could reign for a long time, that’s for sure. Knowing Sienna and Kassidy too? They would probably like it to stay that way, too.

(Kassidy and Sienna enter the ring, and request microphones. They both look proud and yet smug as can be as their theme fades. Kassidy chuckles, looking around the arena.)

Kassidy Heart: So… is anyone surprised at all? Because I’m not.

(Kassidy turns to Sienna.)

Kassidy Heart: Are you?

(Sienna shakes her head.)

Sienna Jade: Nope! Not surprised whatsoever! 😌 Just another day at the Jaded Hearts office as far as I’m concerned.

(Kassidy smirked.)

Kassidy Heart: I was thinking the same thing. At this point, I don’t know why Sienna and I have to continuously make it a point to stand corrected. No one should get ahead of themselves and think the can come on in and conquer us. The Jaded Hearts have and never will be a footstep for anyone here, be it together or separately. I don’t know what on earth compelled Donovan and Mia to think that they were going to get lucky in the end and beat us, but we’ve told them for weeks now that they were simply not on our level, and they didn’t want to listen to us. Now, they get to tuck their tails in between their legs, go back to Voltage, and continue to underperform and unerachieve while the real stars such as myself and Sienna can carry on, maintaining our dominance with everything that we do.

Sienna Jade: Ugh, I love how you say that, Kassi-Poo. It’s true! Those two annoying lovebirds thought they could make us pay, and Donovan especially thought that he could prove he was better than not only us but you! One title reign that was a complete bore to witness filled him with a false sense of confidence, thinking he was ready to come after us, but sure enough, we do what we do best and that’s remind these puny teams they are nothing compared to us. Na-da! I mean, seriously, when will people actually learn?!

Kassidy Heart: At this rate, it may be never, because the same idiot come out in droves to repeat the same tired speeches, filled with the same bit of unwarranted confidence, and they make the same mistakes. Then people will complain about how I don’t often taken people seriously, but when I’m dealing with the same sort of foolishness week in and week out, you can’t blame me for being just a bit jaded.

Sienna Jade: 😉

Kassidy Heart: At any rate, I have to wonder who else will step up to the plate? It feels like we have beaten many teams here, and the pool is getting smaller. I mean, there’s Nicholism and the British Invasion, but let’s be real: they wouldn’t stand a chance against us. No matter what they may say or do, they simply don’t stack up to us, and their cute little drive and ambition they have shown this season isn’t going to make a difference. They’re better off beating bottom of the barrel teams and be content they don’t have to get humiliated by the two of us, because that’s exactly what we will do to them should they ever choose to face off against us.

Sienna Jade: Ugh, and I definiely don’t wnat to deal with those Voltage bums again! Gross! We’ve had enough wasting our time with those losers! You honestly may be right, Kassidy – who is there that can challenge us? We’ve either beaten every other team there is, or the teams that are here are simply not ready for us. I almost feel bad. We’ve destroyed the competition every chance we got and they haven’t been able to recover. 😔

Kassidy Heart: Well, when you’re the most winngest tag team of all time, that’s bound to happen. The pecking order gets picked off, and you remain at the top. At this rate no one is on our level, and that is no exaggeration. It isn’t cockiness or arrogance. It is simply the truth. Still, I have to wonder if there’s anyone else who can challenge us. Otherwise, Sienna and I may go unopposed, and hey, I’m not going to turn down the opportunity to statpad.

Sienna Jade: Same. Honestly, makes my job a lot easier–

???: Are you sure about that?

(Boos emanate from the fans. Kassidy and Sienna both raise a brow before they turn their heads towards the stage.)

Kassidy Heart: … Oh. I guess we did forget about one other team.

Sienna Jade: Actually, we didn’t. We’ve beaten them before, remember?

Kassidy Heart: Oh, right. CTE, I guess. :troll:

(KAI-ZEN stood on stage. Shinzo Sasaki and Prince Tohru, and Mig De Decker were on standby.)

Ricky: Now ladies, I get that you are on cloud nine, but let’s not forget that women of your caliber are still at risk of falling if they get too carried away.

KassIidy Heart: Is that a threat?

Ricky: Not a threat, but a word of caution. No one is exempt from that. Not even you.

Sienna Jade: Oh boy, here he goes with the cryptic bullshit again. 🙄

Ricky: Am I being cryptic? If so, then I apologize. Allow me to be direct…

(Ricky grins.)

Ricky: KAI-ZEN is next, and we’re coming to collect your gold.

Kassidy Heart: …

Sienna Jade: …

(Both women started to laugh.)

Sienna Jade: Seriously? God, you’re so cheesy!

(KAI-ZEN looks serious though, and noticing this, Kassidy and Sienna eventually settle down.)

Kassidy Heart: Okay. So you want a shot at us, huh?

(Shinzo steps forward.)

Shinzo Sasaki: Yes, we do.

(Prince Tohru also steps out.)

Prince Tohru: And we will make good use of that shot by taking away your tag titles.

Sienna Jade: Aww, isn’t that cute? It’s like they’re synchronized!

Shinzo Sasaki: You can joke all you like, but we are serious. We plan on beating you, and we see no better punchline than by defeating two arrogant, over themselves veterans who think they are untouchable.

(Sienna and Kassidy narrow their eyes.)

Kassidy Heart: Is that so? Well then, fine. You want a match that badly? You got it.

(The fans react loudly to that. Ricky grins.)

Ricky: Good. Glad to see that the Jaded Hearts aren’t cowards. However, this won’t be the end of you seeing us. Far from it.

(Kassidy and Sienna look confused y that, even slightly annoyed. However, they both rolled their eyes and left the ring. As they made their way to the stage, they made it a point to look over KAI-ZEN and raise their championships. The two departed, and Mig De Decker’s theme hits, seeing as how his match was next.)

Stew-O: Well, what a confrontation that was! Looks like KAI-ZEN are next in line, staking their claim! However, we have their own Mig De Decker in action against Rory Slate, coming up next!

(A commercial plays for Chanel, featuring ‘Chanel’ by Frank Ocean.)

(Dynasty returns on air, and Mig De Decker is in the ring warming up with ‘Out of the Black’ by Royal Blood​ blaring.)

Stephie Love: This match is scheduled for…

Crowd: ONE FALL!

Stephie Love: INTRODUCING FIRST, AND ALREADY IN THE RING! HAILING FROM BRUSSELS, BELGIUM, WEIGHING IN AT 187 POUNDS… HE IS THE BELGIAN WRESTLING MACHINE… MIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIG! DEEEEEEEEEEEEE! DECKERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

Jake Mercer: And here we have the promising New Breed, Mig De Decker, who is representing KAI-ZEN in this match! He may not have had a championship opportunity like his faction mates at King of Elite, but he let the world know in a video during the leadup to the big show about his championship aspirations for 2024. He wants to make it very clear that he is a winner, and he looks to prove it tonight against Rory Slate!

Flannery McCoy: It seems one of the reasons he’s looking forward to this match is because of Rory Slate’s boyfriend, the New Breed Champion Michael Machina. Mig thinks he can get closer to facing Machina by defeating Slate; I’m not sure if he’ll get his wish, but one way or another he’s extremely motivated to walk out the arena with a win tonight!

(‘Monsters’ by Currents replaced Mig De Decker’s theme song as Rory Slate walked out onto the stage with a confident smirk across her face; she stormed down to the ring with her eyes on Mig.)

Stephie Love: AND HIS OPPONENT! HAILING FROM CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, WEIGHING IN AT 138 POUNDS… SHE IS THE WINDY CITY SADIST! ROOOOOOOOORYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY SLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATE!

Stew-O: You can’t count Rory Slate out either, however! Just like Mig De Decker, Rory is looking to prove her naysayers wrong and get some traction going for 2024! She didn’t get an opportunity to fight at King of Elite, but she did pick up a win over LILITH at the Dynasty prior! A win over a member of KAI-ZEN would undoubtedly be helpful in picking up momentum as we begin the journey towards Operation: Doomsday.

Jake Mercer: Rory has shown us how she’s able to perform in matches against tough opponents before, and Mig De Decker is certainly a tough man to keep down if you fall prey to his technical wrestling expertise.

Stew-O: That’s right; it’s anyone’s call on who is going to come out on top, but we won’t have to wait any longer!

(Ding! Ding! Ding!)

Flannery McCoy: And the match is underway! Both competitors walk out of their corners while keeping eye contact as they begin to circle the ring. Neither elitist wants to get hit with the first strike; setting the tone in the early stages is key.

Stew-O: It looks like Mig De Decker is tentatively reaching his hand out, perhaps looking for a lock-up of sorts, but Rory Slate has no intention of giving in to Mig’s approach; I can’t blame her, the grappling game is where he shines the best!

Jake Mercer: But Mig isn’t in the mood to wait any longer! He swings for Rory’s head! But no, she uses her superior agility to duck out of the way; before Mig is able to fully turn around to face her, he gets blasted in the face with a vicious forearm smash from the Dark Saint!

Flannery McCoy: Rory may be quick, but she also likes to employ a strong style of wrestling; every blow she lands is one you’ll be feeling for days, and that forearm was no exception! Mig staggers back only to be thrown further with a front dropkick from Slate!

Stew-O: Mig gets thrown against the ropes before rebounding and stumbling back towards Rory, who catches him with a front waist lock and attempts a belly to belly suplex! I fear she may have fallen for Mig’s trap, though, as he stalls the maneuver by sandbagging! Rory struggles to force Mig up, and this gives Mig a chance to counter!

Jake Mercer: He’s called the realest wrestler around for a reason, Stew-O! He’s able to force himself underneath Rory’s arm and apply a belly to back waist lock, before lifting her up and taking her down with it! Look at the smooth expertise on display, he’s executing this as naturally as he breathes!

Flannery McCoy: Say what you will about his faction’s methods, but Mig is not a wrestler to be ignored! He floats over and launches a heavy knee strike to the side of Rory’s head; tit for tat, that’s gotta be revenge for that earlier forearm smash!

Stew-O: It looks as though he’s not finished yet as he slithers back down to re-apply the waist lock, only to get on his feet and deadlift the smaller opponent into a bridging German suplex! WOW, even aside from his technical expertise, Mig’s strength is notable as well! The bridged German suplex stays locked in for a pinfall attempt!

ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Jake Mercer: But a kickout by Rory Slate keeps her in the game! It seems as though Mig anticipated that, though, as he uses the momentum of the kickout to transition himself back over Rory and hoists her back up to a standing waist lock as before; this time, though, he hoists her up in a back suplex lift… but this close to the ropes? OH, NO, he goes from the back suplex lift straight into a facebuster!

Flannery McCoy: More accurately, he TRIES to hit the facebuster, but Rory ducks her head on the way down and slides between his legs with a push to force him forward with a stumble! Before Mig can process what just happened, Rory leaps up and catches his head, crashing him down with a jumping neckbreaker! That gives Rory a moment to recuperate from the damage sustained while Mig clutches his neck in pain.

Stew-O: Mig manages to stagger up, but all he receives for his efforts is a discus knee strike! He gets sent staggering back into the corner, where Rory quickly joins him with a step-up high knee to the head using the corner ropes! That has Mig positively rocked and vulnerable to more of Rory’s assault; she begins lighting his chest up with a flurry of rapid-fire knife-edge chops!

Flannery McCoy: Rory is anything if not vicious in her pursuit for victory! You can see the Belgian Wrestling Machine’s chest quickly turn red and blistery from the relentless barrage! At this point, Mig is barely able to keep himself standing, and Rory follows through with that by forcing him down to a kneel-

Jake Mercer: WOW! Look at the ruthlessness on display! Rory just SMASHED the back of Mig’s head with a rear clothesline; not only would that have knocked any normal person out, but Mig’s head bounced off the mat upon landing! I think he may be out! Rory covers the shoulders for the pin!

ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Stew-O: OH, but the referee noticed that Mig grabbed the nearby rope! Unfortunately, a lapse in ring awareness from Rory allowed Mig to get out of the pinfall without needing to forcefully kick out! Rory certainly seems frustrated at this as she gets up and begins flattening Mig with some particularly aggressive stomps and even an extra elbow smash to boot!

Flannery McCoy: Rory is looking to make a statement here at Mig’s expense, and that’s exactly what she plans to do! After attacking Mig to her own satisfaction, she steps out between the ropes and climbs up to the top turnbuckle! It seems she’s planning a high-flying maneuver of some kind, but what will it be?

Jake Mercer: She launches herself off the top ropes and takes to the sky, before plummeting down towards Mig with all her limbs outstretched! She’s going for the frog splash- NO! MIG DE DECKER GETS THE KNEES UP AND CREATES A CRASH LANDING FOR RORY SLATE! THAT HAS GOT TO HURT!

Stew-O: Rory collapses off of Mig’s knees as she tries to escape the danger by rolling out from underneath the bottom rope; before she can, though, Mig grabs her arm and forces her into a prone position as he wrenches the arm with a grounded hammerlock! On top of that, he keeps her hammerlocked forearm trapped against her back with the weight of his knee, effectively keeping her stuck to the mat with little way to defend herself!

Flannery McCoy: Rory Slate may be ruthless, but KAI-ZEN have shown no mercy ever since they came onto the stage! With no way to counter, Rory gets subject to a merciless onslaught of 12-6 elbows to the back of her head! This is horrifying, and it’s a complete manifestation of Mig De Decker’s unyielding drive to get an accolade this year! Is Rory still conscious?!

Jake Mercer: I’m not sure it’s going to matter, Flannery, as Mig releases his knee off of Rory’s arm and moves it between both of his legs to trap it in an even more uncomfortable looking position- oh, no, he’s moving his arms up to her face!

Stew-O: A CROSSFACE WITH THE ARM TRAPPED! THIS IS MIG DE DECKER’S BXL STRETCH, AND HE’S GOT IT LOCKED ON RORY SLATE! THE REFEREE IS CHECKING ON HER…!

Flannery McCoy: HE’S ASKING IF SHE WANTS TO QUIT, BUT HE’S GETTING NO RESPONSE! HE’S CHECKING HER CONSCIOUSNESS WITH THE FREE ARM!

(Ding! Ding! Ding!)

Stephie Love: YOUR WINNER BY SUBMISSION… MIIIIIIIIG! DEEEEEEEEEEEE! DECKERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

Jake Mercer: Now that’s the way to keep Ricky proud! I’m sure that’s one step closer to a championship opportunity for… Oh, he’s still got it locked in! The referee is arguing with him to let go, but he’s got the BXL Stretch still on!

Flannery McCoy: Somebody stop this, the match is already over! Mig is trying to make a statement, but this is going way too far! That’s a dangerous move!

(Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! The bellkeeper tries calling Mig off, but he’s not listening. Suddenly, the crowd begins reacting to something as their heads turn.)

Stew-O: THAT’S MICHAEL MACHINA, THE BOYFRIEND OF RORY SLATE! MIG NOTICES MACHINA SLIDING INTO THE RING AND RELEASES THE HOLD BEFORE PROMPTLY ROLLING OUT OF THE RING BEFORE HE CAN GET ATTACKED!

Jake Mercer: Statement. Made. Look at the smirk on Mig De Decker’s face! He laid out his plan against Rory Slate, and it went EXACTLY how he wanted it to! You can never underestimate a member of KAI-ZEN!

(Mig De Decker walks up the ramp, keeping his eye on the couple as he raises his arms raised in triumph; meanwhile, Machina checks up on Rory, who’s alternating between holding her damaged arm and her jaw after being put through an extended session of the BXL stretch.)

(A commercial plays for the upcoming 21st anniversary of St. Anger by Metallica.)

(Friday Night Dynasty returns to a shot of the arena as ‘My War’ by Shinsei Kamattechan begins to blast through the speakers to the cheers of the crowd. Bronson Daniels is then seen making his way out with a serious look on his face as from there he would make his way down the ramp and to the ring.)

Stephie Love: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome… BRONSON DANIELS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(Bronson makes his way up the steel steps and into the ring, taking a microphone from the ringside area as ‘My War’ begins to come to a close. From there he brings his microphone up to his mouth and begins to speak to the crowd.)

Bronson Daniels: I’ve been thinking about what I wanted to say now this entire week, and it’s safe to say recent events have not been easy on my mind. I have been through a lot, and I do not believe that recently I have been putting in my best work. It’s funny how things go when once upon a time, just this Season actually, I was at the top of the world. I was at the very top of the food chain here on Friday Night Dynasty and untouched by many. Reigning as the World Heavyweight Champion I really believed that nothing could take me down. But when it did, I fell hard, and I was forced to eat my words. It hurt, but it also gave me a reminder and brought me back down to Earth, which I learned was exactly what I needed. It was hard to come to terms with it at first. For a certain time I was down on my luck, moping around, and airing out my insecurities, it’s easy to see that specific moment in time was a very dark place in my career. But I knew that wasn’t going to get me anywhere, and no matter how hurt or conflicted I was, I needed to seize control of my destiny again. That brought me to King of Elite, that brought me to Myles and Jake Smith, and I was a hair away from the World Heavyweight Championship but in an instant… I watched it all slip.

Bronson Daniels: I’m not the type to make excuses so I won’t, and I’ll say that in the end Myles once again got the better of me. It was by no means the result that I wanted and if I had the choice I’d be standing here as a two-time World Heavyweight Champion. But unfortunately fate had other plans for me, and yet again I find myself at the bottom wondering how I’m going to climb back up. It was never meant to be an easy process, and I knew that it was going to take a helluva lot in order to be in the position that I wanted to be in. And while King of Elite did not exactly place me in the position that I wanted to be in, it showed me where I needed to be. It reminded me of the type of Elitist that I am and the level that I can compete at, and that it was no use lowballing myself because of one singular point in time that I focused on so heavily once it all came crashing down. My job is far from over, while the level of competition continues to improve, so do I, and I do believe that it is only a matter of time before I am back where I feel I belong. Whatever it takes, whatever I need to give, I’ll do it. From the very beginning I’ve never settled for anything less than that and I will make sure nothing changes about it either.

Bronson Daniels: I know where I need to be and that is back in my place at the very top of the company. Right now it’s been taken from me, and at Road To Redemption I found it being occupied by someone else instead of myself, which is a strange feeling to say the least. While it continues to be taken away from me by a dominant Champion in his own right, it won’t be forever. I’m not just going to sit back and allow all of this to happen, especially when I have the power to change things here on Dynasty. I want, I need to be World Heavyweight Champion again, and I promise that you do not know the lengths that I am willing to go to in order to get it. My road to Pain For Pride especially this late in could not be less clear, I don’t really know what is going to happen from now until then and that doesn’t really help me put things at ease. But what I do know is that I am going to have to step up to the plate and assert myself if I want to punch my ticket to the main event and I already have everything set up right now. Everything that I work for leading into Pain For Pride, it starts at Operation: Doomsday, in a little more than a month I will participate and I will do so in the biggest way possible. I already know what I want and when I want it, and recent events have allowed my goals to be set in stone for what is to come.

Bronson Daniels: Earlier in the night, Tyrone Montgomery announced an Iron Survivor match, with one of them having the winner compete for a World Championship opportunity. Now I don’t know about you guys, but that seems like the perfect match I need to be in. If I want to reassert myself and put my name back on the map as a World Championship contender then that’s the position that I’m going to have to be in. I’m going to make it known right now that now that I am in the match I am going to do everything that I can in order to get ahead. I don’t know what I’m going to have to do, the hurdles that I am going to have to jump, you will not only see me participating in it, but winning the entire thing. I have been waiting for this a long time, and just because I fell short one or two times does not mean I am going to give it all up. I have absolutely nothing to lose and at Operation: Doomsday you will see exactly why I am here and that is to get back my World Heavyweight Championship.

(Bronson drops his microphone down to the ground as ‘My War’ begins to play again. The crowd cheers as Bronson makes his way out of the ring and up the ramp as it is the last shot seen before Friday Night Dynasty from there begins to completely fade out.)

(A commercial is shown for Hot Pockets.)

(Dynasty returns, and Stephie Love can be seen, smiling as she’s ready to present the next match.)

Stephie Love: The following match is scheduled for one fall…

Crowd: ONE FALL!

(“Lord Knows” by Drake ft. Rick Ross filling the arena! Cody Maverick came stomping out, making his way to the ring. A look of confidence and ego that has been expected from this superstar.)

Stephie Love: Introducing first From Las Vegas, Nevada… Weighing in at 235 pounds… He is the “Sin City Superstar”… CODYYYYYYYYYY MAVERIIIIIIIIIICK!!!

(His music was replaced by “Sakayume” by King Gnu. Emerging slowly from the curtain was Jay Jerry Johnson. He stood on the apron, looking at the crowd of people hyped for this match-up. He puts his hand on his chin and pops his neck. Laser focus in his eyes as he makes his walk to the ring.)

Stephie Love: Introducing his opponent! From Bridgeport, Connecticut, weighing 206 pounds, “THE ARTIST”…JAY JERRY JOHNSSSOOOOOONNNNN!”

(DING! DING! DING!)

Flannery McCoy: Coming off of a brutal win against Hans Grayson, Jay Jerry Johnson is looking like a different man entirely. Laser-focused, with the eyes of a killer. If I were Cody Maverick, I would be careful not to irritate the snake.

Jake Mercer: Solid advice, but Cody is backing down, charging in for a collar and elbow tie-up— BUT JAY SHUTTING IT DOWN WITH A KICK TO THE GUT!

(Jay charged towards Maverick with intensity in each step, slamming his forearm into the back of his neck, sending him down to one knee! He bounces off and goes low with a forearm strike to the jaw! Taking him down! The offense was immediately on Jay’s side so quickly that even Maverick was confused. He tried to regroup, but Jay was already on top of him, hammering down on the back of his head!)

Stew-O: Like you said, Jay is on another level and mindset! He is fighting Cody early on. I don’t even know what Cody was prepared for! Being on the ground this early is a bad sign, but it is not impossible to come back.

Flannery McCoy: Sure, but you don’t ever want to be the first one on the ground. It allows your opponent to inflict as much pain as possible!

(When the referee warned Jay to get off of Cody, he just glared at the official, standing up slowly, staying above Maverick. As he tried to lift himself, JAY SLAMS HIS FOOT ON THE BACK OF HIS NECK! Sending his face straight into the mat. He scoffs, kicking him and hooking his legs for the pin!)

ONE!

(Maverick gets his shoulder up, but Jay quickly transitions into an armbar, yanking on it like he was trying to steal it! Cody yells out in pain, but he doesn’t want to tap! He needed to fight through that instinct!)

Jake Mercer: Jay is as technical as it comes. One move can lead to a hundred others! It’s like a chess game when you’re in a match with The Artist. Maverick is learning that the hard way!

Stew-O: But one thing about Maverick is that he isn’t going to give up so easily. Despite the pain he is going through, he still has a lot left in the tank! You can never count him out!

(As Jay kept the hold tight, that resilience started to kick in! Cody started to use his strength to twist himself around and begin to stand! Jay looked surprised, trying to keep him down, but it wasn’t working. Eventually, Maverick was about to stand and SEND JAY DOWN WITH A CLOTHESLINE! Nearly taking Jay’s head off of his shoulders!)

Flannery McCoy: There we go! Cody is back in this match, but his arm looks like it sustained too much damage from the armbar! That might be a sign of blood in the water

Jake Mercer: Might? It is a sign of blood and something Cody needs to watch out for! He has the advantage at the moment, so he should use it to get as much offense in as possible.

(Cody gets Jay back up and, with his one good arm, throws him hard into the corner! Unloading with a bunch of right-hand jabs to the face before switching to kicks to the gut! When Jay was hunched in the corner, he finally stepped away momentarily, and when Jerry thought he had some space— CODY CHARGES BACK IN WITH A SHOULDER RAM TO THE GUT! Knocking the wind out of “The Artist”!)

(Jay drops to the ground, allowing Cody some time to recover from his arm pain and do some time taunting. When he returns to Jay— he is quickly tripped by Jay and slams his chin right into the second turnbuckle! Once again, Jay takes control, quickly grabbing Cody and swinging him into the STEEL POST!)

Stew-O: Never take your eyes off Jay. That was a rookie mistake! He paid for it! Jay again took advantage of that injured arm, swinging him into the steel post!

(Jay rolls Cody up! The referee slides in!)

ONE!

TWO!!

(CODY ONCE AGAIN KICKING OUT! Jay shakes his head, getting the same look in his eye as he did at King of Elite. He grabs Cody and SLAMS his head into his! Yelling at him as he did so! Lifting him again and DOING it again for the second time, this time harder than the last!)

Flannery McCoy: Jay is absolutely vicious with these headbutts, almost like his goal is to break his nose or something! If he is trying to send a message, it is sent. But do you think he is going too far?

Jake Mercer: I think the question is, has he gone far enough? There is never a length anyone wouldn’t go to secure a victory in wrestling. That’s just how the business is.

(Jay picks up Cody, hoisting him up and down quickly with a snap suplex! Still having a hold of him, he rolls up and lifts him up again, going for ANOTHER quick snap suplex. Then for the third time, lifting him up— BUT BEFORE HE COULD FINISH! Cody quickly pushed Jay forward and rams his back into the corner! Jay stumbles forward and into the arms of Maverick! Who tosses him overhead with a Belly to Belly Suplex!)

Stew-O: The strength on display by Cody! You said a match with Jay is like playing chess, well Cody must be a super computer the way he is outplaying Jay right now!

(With a little bit of space, Cody looks at Jay, scouting him, slowly getting up when he does. Until Jay started to stand! He bounces off the ropes, towards Jay looking for the LIGHTS OUT—)

Flannery McCoy: Jay stops the Superman punch with a dropkick! A dropkick to the hurt arm! This is bad for Cody, really bad! Jay quickly hooking his arm looking for the “LONG LIVE JAYISM”!

(CODY BREAKS OUT OF IT, LIFTING HIM UP AND THROWING HIM DOWN OVERHEAD! SLAMMING ON THE MAT AND QUICKLY TRYING TO RECOVER! But Cody was way ahead of Jay, kicking him in the gut and going for the Sin City Stunner—)

(But once again Jay finds a way out, pushing him forward into the ropes! Bouncing back and getting rolled up by Jay!)

ONE!

TWO!!

THRE—

(SUDDENLY CODY REVERSES THE PIN INTO HIS OWN! The referee is now counting the pin for Maverick!)

ONE!

TWO!!

Jake Mercer: LOOK CODY IS GRABBING THE TRUNKS! HE IS GRABBING THE TRUNKS!

THREEEEE!!!!

(DING! DING! DING!)

(Immediately when the bell rang, Cody slid out of the ring, in shock that it worked and he got a pinfall victory over the former Interwire Champion! Nobody was more shocked than Jay, who looked to the referee and then back at Cody screaming profanity!)

Stephie Love: HERE IS YOUR WINNER…THE SIN CITY SUPERSTAR…CODY MAVERICK!

Stew-O: Like you said before Jake, however far you’re willing to go in wrestling and some might say that he was wrong for doing so but Cody got the desired outcome!

Flannery McCoy: This is a huge win for Cody and a hard fought battle on the part of both of these men! Though it looks like Jay is taking it the hardest. Do you think it’s wise to upset him like that?

Jake Mercer: Only time will tell.

(Jay continues to look at Cody as he walks up the ramp with a smile on his face, the camera fades to black as Maverick keeps talking smack.)

(After Maverick went back up the ramp, Jay slowly staggered to his feet and looked to get out of the ring himself; however, before he could step foot through the ropes, the crowd began cheering seemingly unprovoked. Jay noticed and look around with a confused expression on his face, before his eyes narrowed at the ramp where Hans Grayson was walking down towards him with an intense glare and a microphone held up to his mouth.)

Hans Grayson: You know, Jay, I like to consider myself an honorable wrestler. I like to win fair and square with no outside involvement or cheap tricks, and if I end up losing like you did here tonight, I want to take it on the chin and LEARN from my mistakes to improve myself. I’m willing to admit when my opponent was the better man… but I don’t acknowledge the loss that I took at King of Elite. I don’t need to admit anything. You weren’t the better man that night, and the only reason you walked out of the Johannesburg Stadium with a win is because you CHEATED.

(Jay stared intensely at Hans as he rolled into the ring and walked near him.)

Hans Grayson: Before you started this whole mess, I respected you. But piece by piece, you’ve torn every shred of respect I had out of my heart, and now I’m left with nothing but PITY. At King of Elite, you had to give me a low blow and use the concrete beneath our feet to put me down! By tainting our match, you disrespect me, you disrespected the audience, and you disrespected yourself. You think I’m just going to sit here and let it go? I never wanted it to get to this point, especially with someone I considered to be a friend, but YOU escalated it. All because of your jealousy. You want to beat me that badly, Jay? If you’re going to defeat me, you do it the right way.

(Hans throws the microphone at Jay, who catches it and looks over at his recent opponent.)

Jay Jerry Johnson: You want me to beat you… the right way? What does that mean, exactly? I beat you at King of Elite one way or another. We were in a fight, Hans; I did what had to be done to win, and you couldn’t do what had to be done to stay in the match. I have nothing more to prove to a man I beat a week ago. I’ve proven everything I needed to, so anything further between us would just be a waste of time. Get out of my face, Hans.

(Jay starts to walk past Hans, but Hans blocks his path and gets up in his face.)

Hans Grayson: Just gonna run away like a coward? Is that what the Artist does? That showing at King of Elite was your ART? It doesn’t belong in a museum’s dumpster, let alone the museum itself. But I get it. You don’t want to fight me again because you’re afraid you’ll get exposed as the fraud that you are. You don’t want to try to prove you can beat me clean as a whistle because the only way you’re capable of beating me is DIRTY. You can’t do it. You’re not good enough. You-

(Before Hans could utter another insult, Jay cut him off with a punch to the mouth, and the pair began brawling! Both man began exchanging vicious blows, with the crowd clearly on the side of the Fire Heart. However, the burden of Jay’s recent match was weighing down on him, allowing Hans to get the advantage; the Fire Heart lit Jay up with a flurry of punches. Hans leaned back as he prepared to knock Jay out with a Burning Shot Lariat, but Jay dropped himself to the mat and quickly rolled out of the ring and away from danger. Hans continued yelling at Jay as the Artist was forced to retreat up the ramp, glaring at the Fire Heart as he did.)

(A commercial plays for Moana 2.)

(The camera returns to the ring after commercial break as “The Leaving Song Pt. II” by AFI is playing as Hans is pacing in the ring trying to calm down from what just happened as we hear Stew-O on commentary. )

Stew-O: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to Friday Night Dynasty and we can see that Hans Grayson is still in the ring after the incident moments ago with Jay Jerry Johnson. That’s a story for another time because Hans is in singles action tonight. Right now, let’s send it to Stephie Love in the ring for our next match.

(The camera focuses on Stephie Love as she is standing in the center of the ring as she is ready to go and begin the introductions for the next contest.)

Stephie Love: Ladies and gentlemen, this next contest is scheduled for ONE FALL!

Crowd: ONE FALL!

Stephie Love: Introducing first and already in the ring! From Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada! Weighing in at 219 pounds. Here is “FIRE HEART” HANS GRAYSON!!

Stew-O: After what we just witnessed moments ago, Hans isn’t exactly in the best of moods. He wants Jay bad and that isn’t good for Jay. Especially after King of Elite.

Jake Mercer: Yeah. He got his brains scrambled a little bit thanks to the beatdown by Jay Jerry Johnson at King of Elite. It was interesting to watch. Now he wants to try and do it again. Is he stupid or what?

Flannery McCoy: He isn’t stupid. He just wants another chance to fight Jay. Hans is a very tough competitor and he is a fighter ready to compete tonight. His opponent is not someone to overlook.

(Hans stops pacing the ring and takes his corner while his theme is replaced by “il vento d’oro” by Yugo Kanno. Seconds later, MITSU enters the arena to a positive reaction from the crowd as he heads to the ring.)

Stephie Love: Introducing his opponent! From Sōka, Saitama, Japan! Weighing 187 pounds! Here is “THE GOLDEN DOYEN” MITSU!!

Flannery McCoy: Here comes MITSU to the ring and he has a big task ahead of him going into this match.

Jake Mercer: Yeah. We last saw MITSU a few weeks ago losing to Drake Armstrong. Will things change for him tonight?

Stew-O: They certainly could. MITSU has been looking for the golden opportunity ever since leaving KAI-ZEN. He very well could get it if he wins tonight. Who will leave victorious? We are about to find out.

(MITSU enters the ring and takes his corner as his entrance music fades off. Seconds later, the referee is checking both competitors before calling for the bell.)

(DING! DING! DING!)

Stew-O: Here we go! This match is underway and we start off with a quick lock up in the center of the ring and Hans takes the early advantage with a side headlock on Mitsu.

Jake Mercer: Mitsu trying to find a way to get free, but Hans is tightening the grip on his head before Hans takes him down with a headlock takeover.

Flannery McCoy: Give credit to Mitsu for immediately bridging up and trying to keep his shoulders off the mat, BUT MITSU ROLLS BACK TO GET BACK ONTO HIS FEET AND THAT IMMEDIATELY PUTS HANS INTO A PIN–

Stew-O: BUT HANS QUICKLY KICKS OUT BEFORE A COUNT CAN BE STARTED! Hans tosses Mitsu off of him and both men are back to their feet and we have a standoff in the center of the ring.

Flannery McCoy: The crowd showing their appreciation of that little flurry of events as Mitsu and Hans show respect and sportsmanship with quick high five before they lock up again.

Jake Mercer: This time it’s Mitsu who takes the advantage with what looked to be a kick to the gut to break free before he fires off a few forearms into the face of his opponent.

Stew-O: Mitsu is rocking Hans back to the ropes before whipping him over to the other side. Hans with the rebound AND MITSU WITH A BACK BODY DROP-

Jake Mercer: HANS LANDS ON HIS FEET! Hans uses the ropes on the other side as Mitsu turns around AND HANS CLOBBERS HIM WITH A JUMPING KNEE RIGHT TO THE FACE THAT MAKES MITSU DOWN!

Flannery McCoy: Mitsu is getting back to his feet AND HANS MEETS HIM WITH A KNIFE EDGE CHOP TO THE CHEST! THE FORCE OF THAT CHOP COULD HAVE STOPPED MITSU’S HEART!

Stew-O: Hans grabs Mitsu and whips him to the corner. Mitsu hits the turnbuckles AND HANS LIGHTS HIM UP WITH ANOTHER KNIFE EDGE CHOP TO THE CHEST! Hans is not playing around in this match.

Jake Mercer: I guess having a few screws knocked loose can make anybody mad. Like right now. Hans is not letting up on Mitsu AS HE CHOPS HIM AGAIN!

Flannery McCoy: Hans is not in the best of moods after King of Elite and I don’t blame him, so he is strictly business tonight as Hans backs away from the corner.

Stew-O: HANS RUNS FULL SPEED BACK TO THE CORNER AND CLOBBERS MITSU WITH ANOTHER JUMPING KNEE TO THE JAW! Now he grabs Mitsu by the head AND RUNS HIM OUT OF THE CORNER–

Flannery McCoy: RUNNING BULLDOG BY HANS AND MITSU GOES FACE FIRST INTO THE MAT! Hans rolls him over AND HITS THE STANDING MOONSAULT BEFORE HOOKING THE LEG!

ONNNNNNNNNNEEEEE!

TWWWWWWOOOOOOO!

Jake Mercer: MITSU KICKS OUT AT TWO! I guess you can give credit to both of these competitors thus far in the match for the intensity they are bringing already. Hans quickly gets into the mount position–

Stew-O: AND HE IS JUST DRIVING THOSE ELBOWS RIGHT INTO MITSU’S FACE! Mitsu is doing whatever he can to block those elbow shots and prevent as much damage as possible.

Jake Mercer: Hans is such a cheater! Aren’t those elbows illegal or something? Come on, Ref! Start a count.

Flannery McCoy: I don’t think that elbows are considered illegal. Be that as it may, the referee is letting it go, but Mitsu manages to shove Hans off of him as he tries to create some distance.

Stew-O: Mitsu is trying to get to the ropes, but Hans is right there AND MITSU WITH A KICK TO THE BREADBASKET STOPS HANS FOR A MOMENT! But it wasn’t enough as Hans has Mitsu by the head.

Jake Mercer: Hans gets Mitsu to his feet AND MITSU WITH A STRAIGHT ELBOW TO THE GUT! That forces Hans to let Mitsu go. Mitsu tries for a roundhouse kick–

Flannery McCoy: BUT HANS CATCHES THE FOOT! Mitsu is bouncing on one foot BEFORE QUICKLY COUNTERING INTO AN ENZUIGIRI TO THE SIDE OF THE HEAD! The force of the move sends Hans through the ropes and out to the ringside floor.

Stew-O: Give Mitsu credit for being one step ahead of the former New Breed Champion on that one as Hans is trying to recover on the outside. Meanwhile, Mitsu is trying to build up a head of steam as he hits the far side ropes-

Flannery McCoy: Mitsu comes back AND HE LAUNCHES HIMSELF OVER THE TOP ROPE AND HE TAKES HANS BACK DOWN TO THE MAT WITH A BEAUTIFUL CORKSCREW PLANCHA!

Jake Mercer: The back of Hans’ head crashes hard against the floor and now it’s Mitsu who is in firm control. Who would have thought?

Stew-O: Will you be nice? Right now it’s Mitsu who brings Hans back to his feet and picks before taking him to the ring AND SLAMMING HIM SPINE FIRST AGAINST THE EDGE OF THE RING!

Jake Mercer: Mitsu showing that he wants to be taken very seriously as a competitor and a win over Hans Grayson will certainly prove that he isn’t the goofball he was in the past.

Flannery McCoy: Mitsu just put Hans on the ring apron before he climbs up there himself. MITSU JUMPS INTO THE AIR AND HITS THE KNEE DROP RIGHT INTO THE HEART OF HANS GRAYSON!

Stew-O: Hans holds his chest in pain as he rolls into the ring. Mitsu quickly follows suit AND HE HITS ANOTHER JUMPING KNEE DROP BEFORE ROLLING HANS OVER FOR THE COVER!

ONNNNNNNNNNEEEEEE!

TWWWWWWWWOOOOO!

TH–

Jake Mercer: HANS KICKS OUT AT TWO WITH AUTHORITY! Hans didn’t have a good night last week. He is dead set on not losing two weeks in a row, but right now, things are going MITSU’s way.

Flannery McCoy: Mitsu is grabbing Hans and he whips him to the turnbuckle AND HANS SPRINGS UP TO THE TOP ROPE AND DOES A BACKFLIP!

Stew-O: HE MANAGES TO GRAB MITSU’S HEAD BEFORE LANDING AND HE DROPS MITSU WITH AN INVERTED DDT THAT HANS CALLS A STYLIN DDT! BEAUTIFUL COUNTER BY MITSU!

Flannery McCoy: Mitsu’s offense was quickly countered with that DDT. Mitsu is down AND HANS IS DROPPING KNEES INTO THE MIDSECTION OF MITSU! If Mitsu isn’t careful, he could suffer a broken rib or two.

Jake Mercer: Hans grabs Mitsu and brings him back to his feet BEFORE QUICKLY PULLING HIM UP AND HANS TAKES HIM DOWN WITH A POWERFUL SAITO SUPLEX! Mitsu is having his world rocked by a crazy man who wants to get his ass kicked again.

Stew-O: Will you quit? There’s no doubt that Jay is gonna be watching this match after what we saw just moments ago. But Hans can’t let that distract him from this match with Mitsu.

Jake Mercer: People make jokes about Mitsu, but Mitsu can be dangerous when given the chance and he will have no issue taking this match if there is any level of opening.

Flannery McCoy: Mitsu has made it back to his feet AND HANS WITH THE BACKFLIP AS HE GOES FOR THE PELE KICK–

Stew-O: MITSU STEPS OUT OF THE WAY AT THE LAST SECOND! Mitsu shoves Hans to the ropes. Hans comes back AS MITSU JUMPS IN THE AIR AND TAKES HANS DOWN WITH A FRANKENSTEINER!

Jake Mercer: Hans was taken up and over as he was sent into the corner. Hans gets back to his feet AND MITSU GOES FULL SPEED AND DELIVERS A DROPKICK TO HANS IN THE CORNER!

Flannery McCoy: HANS WAS CAUGHT IN THE FACE WITH THAT DROPKICK! Hans comes stumbling out of the corner into the waiting arms of Mitsu–

Stew-O: Mitsu with a kick to the gut! Hans doubled over and Mitsu grabs his head to lift him up into the suplex position–

Flannery McCoy: INSTEAD MITSU DROPS HIM DOWN FACE FIRST WITH THAT STANDING GOURDBUSTER! Hans is holding his ribs in pain as he starts to get back to his feet.

Jake Mercer: But Mitsu grabs hold of Hans before lifting him up in the air AND PLANTING HIM FACE FIRST ONCE AGAIN WITH THE MITSU STYLE FLAPJACK! NICE MOVE BY MITSU AS HE ROLLS HANS OVER AND HOOKS THE LEG FOR THE COVER!

ONNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEE!

TWWWWWWWWOOOOOO!

THHHHHHHRRRREEEEEEE!

Stew-O: HANS GOT THE SHOULDER UP AT TWO! That was a very close near fall and Mitsu was very close right there. Mistu is really bringing the fight to Hans in this match.

Jake Mercer: Do you know how embarrassing it would have been to Hans if he lost to a flapjack? Ohh Jay would probably be backstage laughing his ass off.

Flannery McCoy: Will you shut up, Jake? Mitsu is an amazing athlete and he is doing everything he can to win this match and he has been doing an amazing job against a former New Breed Champion like Hans Grayson.

Stew-O: Mitsu is getting back to his feet as he grabs Hans by the leg AND HE HAS A SINGLE LEG BOSTON CRAB APPLIED! SUBMISSION MOVE APPLIED HERE!

Flannery McCoy: Mitsu has great ring awareness as he pulls Hans right to the center of the ring and sits deeper into that Boston Crab.

Jake Mercer: I am alright with this. Mitsu must know that taking out Hans’ legs would take away the majority of his arsenal and completely neutralize him.

Stew-O: Hans is scratching and clawing to get himself to the ropes and he is getting closer and closer to getting a rope break to break the submission–

Jake Mercer: MITSU ONCE AGAIN PULLS HANS BACK TO THE CENTER OF THE RING! NOW MITSU GRABS HANS’ OTHER LEG AND NOW MITSU HAS A FULL BOSTON CRAB LOCKED IN!

Flannery McCoy: Hans really needs to think of a way to counter the submission or there will have been too much damage done to his legs and could completely ruin his chances of winning this match–

Stew-O: HANS MANAGES TO ROLL THROUGH AND NOW HE IS IN THE SLINGSHOT POSITION! Hans is still bridged up as HE TURNS WITH ALL OF HIS MIGHT–

Jake Mercer: HANS MANAGES TO TAKE MITSU DOWN WITH A MODIFIED BODYSCISSORS TAKEOVER AND THAT SENDS MITSU FOR A RIDE! HOW IN THE HELL DID HE MANAGE TO PULL THAT OFF?

Flannery McCoy: Because the Elitists of EAW can be very creative and innovative when they find themselves in very dire situations. Just like what we witnessed with Hans right here.

Stew-O: Mitsu was sent for the ride and he is now back on his feet as he runs in for a clothesline, BUT HANS AVOIDS IT! Mitsu hits the ropes and comes back AS HANS JUMPS IN THE AIR AND TAKES MITSU UP AND OVER ONCE AGAIN WITH A HURRICANRANA–

Flannery McCoy: BUT MITSU WAS ABLE TO GET HIS SHOULDERS UP BEFORE A COUNT COULD BE STARTED! Both men are back to their feet and MITSU IS THE FIRST ONE TO STRIKE WITH A STEPOVER INTO THE SPINNING HEEL KICK!

Jake Mercer: Hans was knocked for a loop and it is great to enjoy. He could be knocked out on his feet right now as Mitsu spins him into a waistlock AND HE GOES FOR A GERMAN SUPLEX–

Stew-O: HANS MANAGES TO LAND ON HIS FEET ONCE AGAIN AND HE GRABS HOLD OF MITSU BEFORE HE COULD TURN AROUND! Hans has a full nelson applied–

Jake Mercer: AND HANS LIFTS HIM UP AND SPIKES HIM WITH A SNAP DRAGON SUPLEX! POOR MITSU LANDED RIGHT ON THE BACK OF HIS NECK ON THAT ONE!

Flannery McCoy: Hans is in control as he drags Mitsu away from the ropes to the center of the ring. Hans now hits the ropes AND HE JUMPS ONTO THE MIDDLE ROPE AND HITS THE LIONSAULT!

Stew-O: “FIRE FLY” BY HANS GRAYSON! DIRECT HIT BY HANS AS HE LANDS ON TOP OF MITSU AND HOOKS THE LEG FOR THE COVER!

ONNNNNNNNNNEEEEEE!

TWWWWOOOOOOOOOO!

THHHHHHRRREEEEEEEE!

Stew-O: MITSU GETS THE SHOULDER UP! That was a very close near fall for Hans Grayson and he was very close to winning this match. This has been a great match here tonight.

Flannery McCoy: It certainly has, Stew. Right now, Mitsu isn’t moving and we can only wonder what Hans is going to do next. I guess he is deciding to leave his ground attack and Hans is climbing up to the top rope again. I wonder why?

Jake Mercer: Hans isn’t going up there to raise his IQ. I can guarantee that much. He should have stayed on the attack instead of climbing up and trying to play in the high rent district.

Flannery McCoy: WHAT THE HELL IS THAT? THAT’S JAY JERRY JOHNSON! JAY IS BACK AND HE JUST PULLED HANS’ LEG OUT FROM HIM! THAT CAUSES JAY TO LOSE HIS BALANCE AND HE CRASHES AND BURNS OFF THE TOP ROPE!

Stew-O: JAY MADE HIS WAY BACK TO THE RING AND IT COULD COST HANS THE MATCH! How Jay did that under the radar is beyond me. Referee must need to go to the eye doctor or something. This match continues on.

Jake Mercer: ALWAYS WATCH YOUR BACK WHEN YOU PISS SOMEBODY OFF LIKE THAT! Hans should know that. Hans is getting back to his feet AND HE IS READING THE RIOT ACT TO JAY–

Flannery McCoy: THAT DISTRACTION MIGHT HAVE COST HANS THE MATCH BECAUSE HERE COMES MITSU WITH A ROLLUP! O’CONNOR ROLL AND HANS’ SHOULDERS ARE DOWN! IS MITSU GONNA STEAL IT HERE!

ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEE!

TWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOO!

THHHHHHHRRRRREEEEEEEE!

Stew-O: HANS REVERSES! HANS ROLLS BACK AND NOW MITSU’S SHOULDERS ARE ON THE MAT! TURNABOUT IS FAIR PLAY IN A MATCH LIKE THIS!

ONNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!

TWWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!

THHHHRRRRRRREEEEEEE!

Flannery McCoy: MITSU KICKS OUT AND THE FORCE OF THE KICKOUT SENDS HANS FLYING! HANS GOES THROUGH THE ROPES AND HE IS ON THE RING APRON!

Jake Mercer: Hans gets back to his feet after being kicked through the ropes. Mitsu comes running in and HANS WITH A ELBOW TO THE FACE AND THAT TAKES MITSU DOWN!

Stew-O: That gives Hans a little bit of time to recover as he waits for Mitsu to get back to his feet. Mitsu is recovering and Hans is ready to finish this match off once and for all–

Jake Mercer: JAY GETS ON THE APRON ONCE AGAIN! HE SPINS HANS OVER TO HIM, BUT HANS CATCHES JAY RIGHT IN THE SIDE OF THE HEAD WITH AN ELBOW AND THAT KNOCKS JAY OFF THE APRON AND TO THE FLOOR! THAT’S UNFAIR!

Flannery McCoy: UNFAIR MY ASS! JAY DESERVED GETTING KNOCKED ON HIS ASS! NOW MITSU IS BACK TO HIS FEET AND HANS SPRINGBOARDS AND DOES A FRONT FLIP INTO THE RING! HE LANDS ON HIS FEET AND GOES STRAIGHT FOR MITSU!

Stew-O: BURNING! SHOT! LARIAT! THE BUCKSHOT SPRINGBOARD LARIAT LANDS RIGHT ON THE MONEY AND HAS TURNED MITSU INSIDE OUT! MITSU ISN’T MOVING AND JAY IS GETTING BACK TO HIS FEET! JAY IS NOT GONNA BE HAPPY THAT THINGS ARE ENDING LIKE THIS AS HANS ROLLS MITSU OVER FOR THE COVER!

ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEE!

TWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOO!

THHHHHHHRRRRRREEEEEEEE!

(DING! DING! DING!)

( “The Leaving Song Pt. II” starts playing again as Hans rolls off of MITSU and hasn’t taken his eyes off of Jay as Stephie Love announces the final decision of the match.)

Stephie Love: Here is your winner… HANS GRAYSON!

Stew-O: What a match we witnessed here tonight and it was the former New Breed Champion Hans Grayson who walks away with the victory here tonight.

Flannery McCoy: Hans does leave victorious, but it almost went in a completely different direction, but thankfully for Hans, the interference by Jay Jerry Johnson backfired.

(Hans gets back to his feet and his arm is raised in victory by the referee. Hans STILL hasn’t taken his eyes off Jay as the referee lets go of Hans and goes to check on MITSU. Jay isn’t sure what to think as he slowly starts walking back up the entrance ramp.)

Jake Mercer: MITSU was handed that match on a silver platter, but don’t blame Jay for MITSU not being able to take advantage of what Jay tried to do. MITSU could have had the biggest victory of his career since his return… but he didn’t.

Flannery McCoy: Don’t blame MITSU either. MITSU put up an amazing effort in this match. He was close on a few occasions, but it wasn’t meant to be. MITSU just needs to keep up the effort and he will get that major victory he wants.

Stew-O: MITSU will live to fight another day. After what we have seen tonight, the story between Jay Jerry Johnson and Hans Grayson is not over yet it seems. Things are only going to get more heated from here. As for tonight, Hans Grayson leaves victorious and we offer our congratulations once again to Hans Grayson!

(The final shot shows Jay standing at the top of the entrance ramp looking down at Hans, before cutting to Hans, who is glaring up the entrance ramp right at Jay telling him to come down to the ring and fight before the camera cuts elsewhere.)

(The camera cuts backstage to Ronan Malosi, who is wearing his usual, that of an expensive suit, and sunglasses to match. The Interwire Title is draped over his shoulder, and Ronan is talking over the phone with somebody as he walks down the corridor backstage.)

Ronan Malosi: Wiseman, no need to worry. Enjoy your week off. I’ve got things handled tonight. Besides, no one is dumb enough to try, and step to me for this title. Not after the way I dominated Shinzo Sasaki at King of Elite. I mean, the whole roster should be afraid of me. By the way, you know any good food spots in Maradi… Niger? Yeah, I think that’s it.

(Ronan chuckles, presumably at something Albert says over the phone.)

Ronan Malosi: …you’re right, this place is a dump.

(The crowd boos heavily at this comment made by Ronan.)

Ronan Malosi: Time to get out of here. Hey, I’ll get back to you, alright?

(Ronan stops walking briefly to hang up his phone call with Hitchman before attempting to keep walking, looking to leave the arena, but something off screen catches his eye, which turns out to be Ryan Wilson as the camera pans over towards him. The crowd cheers at the mere sight of Wilson, who is sitting on a production crate, reading the latest EAW magazine. The camera pans back to Ronan Malosi, who places the phone in his pocket, and decides to approach his former rival.)

Ronan Malosi: Ryan Wilson.

(Ryan decides to close up his magazine, and set it down on the production crate before hopping off it, and standing face-to-face with Ronan.)

Ryan Wilson: Ronan Malosi. Long time, no see.

Ronan Malosi: Yeah, I knew there’d be a time when the two of us would cross paths again, just was a matter of when.

Ryan Wilson: Well, we haven’t been on the same brand together since-

Ronan Malosi: Yeah, since Pain for Pride 14. Ya know, all things considered, Ryan, we had some good times together.

Ryan Wilson: Really?

Ronan Malosi: Yeah. I mean, we had our very own talk show, remember that?

Ryan Wilson: Of course. The Rated R&R Show.

(Ronan nods.)

Ronan Malosi: We also were the most entertaining thing on Showdown that season, whether we were teaming, or whether we were fighting. We drew some good ratings, and even got Feud of the Year for it. To think, that was all because of me.

(Ryan chuckles to himself, amused, but not surprised by Ronan’s comment.)

Ryan Wilson: Well, Ronan, as things change, some stay the same.

(Ronan scoffs.)

Ronan Malosi: What’s that supposed to mean?

Ryan Wilson: Means that you’re still absolutely full of yourself.

(Ronan laughs it off.)

Ronan Malosi: Well, Ryan, if we’re talking about things staying the same, I see you still haven’t shaved that beard, which makes you look like an absolute homeless person.

Ryan Wilson: I haven’t shaved, you haven’t grown any hair. I guess we’re even.

(Ronan rubs his head, growing frustrated before issuing a rebuttal.)

Ronan Malosi: Yeah, well, I see you’re still a Mama’s boy. That old hag is still getting involved in your business. I’m surprised she hasn’t kicked the bucket by now.

Ryan Wilson: I’m still a mama’s boy, and you? You’re still an Andre Walker dickeater.

(Ronan rolls his eyes.)

Ronan Malosi: You better watch the way you talk to me. Do you know who I am? I’m the Interwire Champion.

(Ronan smugly taps the belt.)

Ryan Wilson: You’re right, you are the Interwire Champion, a two-time one at that. I’ve been meaning to congratulate you. I bet it wasn’t easy cheating your way to that championship.

Ronan Malosi: Cheated? No, I outsmarted. Big difference.

Ryan Wilson: Well… whatever you say.

(Ronan catches Ryan looking directly at the Interwire Championship, and snaps his attention back to him.)

Ronan Malosi: Hey! My eyes are up here. Quit looking down at my championship, will ya? Perhaps… get one of your own. :mjgrin:

Ryan Wilson: Oh, I plan to, especially following King of Elite. Finally, I can put Xander Payne, and DOMINION behind me. No longer do I have to worry about him coming after me, and my family ever again this season. It feels good.

Ronan Malosi: I bet it does, Ryan, and I can somewhat relate, because I no longer have to worry about either Shinzo Sasaki or Theron Nikolas coming after me for this title.

Ryan Wilson: Huh. Seems like Chained Fury is doing well these days.

(Ronan shrugs.)

Ronan Malosi: You could say that.

Ryan Wilson: So, what’s next?

Ronan Malosi: What’s next is: I continue my reign as the Interwire Champion, no matter who is placed in front of me. My match with Shinzo Sasaki proved that I am a fighting champion, who takes on any, and all comers.

(This piques Ryan’s interest.)

Ryan Wilson: Any, and all comers? Really?

Ronan Malosi: Yeah! You name em, I’ll beat em. Jake Smith? Beat him. Bronson Daniels? Beat him. Xander Payne? Beat him. Ther-

Ryan Wilson: Sorry to cut you off there, Ronan, but you know who’s not included in that little list there?

(Ronan shrugs, interested to know.)

Ryan Wilson: Me. You haven’t beaten me, so I suggest that you put that title on the line, and prove how much of a fighting champion you are. Ronan Malosi versus Ryan Wilson, just like old times.

(Ronan shakes his head.)

Ronan Malosi: No, nothing like old times, because I am a different man than I was back then when we faced. Sure, you could beat me then, but your ass can’t beat me now.

Ryan Wilson: Then prove it. Prove it by putting that title on the line.

(The crowd fill the arena with “YES!” Chants, wanting to see Ryan Wilson and Ronan Malosi run it back for the first time in years. Of course, Ronan seems a bit hesitant at accepting this challenge, but gets in Ryan’s face.)

Ronan Malosi: Alright, Ryan. You wanna run it back like the old days? You’re-

???: Gentlemen, gentlemen, gentlemen…

(Drake Armstrong squeezes between both Ryan and Ronan Malosi, separating them from one another, and drawing their attention away as well, causing the crowd to boo.)

Drake Armstrong: Look, I hate to interrupt, but at King of Elite, did the two of you see what happened when I squared off against Cy Henderson? Ronan, I did something that you couldn’t do, I did something that most people in this company couldn’t do. I defeated an EAW Hall of Famer in Cy Henderson.

Ronan Malosi: …Congratulations? Am I meant to care?

Drake Armstrong: You should, and I’ll get to that in a minute. But Ryan, how does it feel?

(Ryan gives Drake a confused look.)

Ryan Wilson: How does what feel?

Drake Armstrong: How does it feel to have your victory overshadowed by ME? I mean, who cares that you defeated Xander Payne? Let’s be honest, anyone can defeat Xander Payne these days. The man is a shell of his former self. But Cy Henderson? Not many people have been able to do that since his return, meaning I’m in an elite group, one that I share with a former World Champion like Drake King, and-

Ronan Malosi: Can you speed this up? I’ve kinda got places to be.

(Drake cracks a smirk.)

Drake Armstrong: Gladly.

(Drake steps in front of Ryan Wilson, completely neglecting him as he now stands face-to-face with Ronan Malosi.)

Drake Armstrong: Ronan, I’m ready to take that next step in my career, and the only way I can do that is with Championship gold. Now, Myles is a little booked up, and I’ve already had my encounters with Michael Machina. But I’ve never gone after that.

(Drake touches the belt with his finger, but Ronan quickly swats his hand away, causing Drake to put both hands up with a smile.)

Drake Armstrong: Relax. Ronan, I like you. Similar to me, you’re accustomed to the finer things in life. You have money, you have it all, but you have what I want, and I’m coming for that Interwire Championship.

(Drake walks off, leaving Ronan and Ryan to look on as the camera fades elsewhere.)

(The camera cuts to Stephie Love in the ring.)

Stephie Love: THE FOLLOWING CONTEST IS SCHEDULED FOR… ONE FALL!!

Crowd: ONE FALL!!

(“It Follows” by Cane Hill plays out Xander Payne, who skips the theatrics, and marches straight down to the ring, the utmost focus, and determination in his eyes. Paying no attention to the fact he is being booed by the audience in Maradi, Niger.)

Stephie Love: Introducing first! Hailing out of Toronto, Canada, weighing in at 255 pounds…XANDER PAYNE!!

(‘Changed It’ by Nicki Minaj feat. Lil Wayne. Plays next, and Xander paces back and forth inside the ring, staring directly at the stage area as Milli Banks comes out bopping to her theme song, and mouthing the lyrics. Milli struts down the ramp, but tosses her sunglasses aside, looking directly back at Xander Payne, showing she isn’t taking him lightly either.)

Stephie Love: And his opponent! Hailing out of Brooklyn, New York, weighing in at 135 pounds…SHE IS THE SUPERNOVA…MILLI BANKS!!

(Both competitors stare one another down from opposing corners as the referee signals the bell.)

(DING! DING! DING!)

Stew-O: Bell has rung, and we are underway. Milli Banks versus Xander Payne! Both competitors lost at King of Elite, but look to regain momentum tonight, and a win could do that. Xander Payne is an EAW Hall of Famer, but Milli Banks is also a former Specialists Champion. Won’t be easy for either competitor to overcome the other.

Flannery McCoy: Both competitors start things off by circling one another before initiating a collar and elbow tie-up in the center of the ring- OOH! XANDER PAYNE CAUGHT MILLI WITH A KICK TO THE MIDSECTION INSTEAD, AND SHOVES HER BACK INTO THE CORNER! XANDER STOMPS A MUDHOLE INTO A MILLI BANKS, BEATING HER DOWN TO A SEATED POSITION!

Jake Mercer: Xander finally relents, but look at the eyes, look at the expression on his face! He is intense tonight, possibly having some leftover aggression from his match with Ryan Wilson.

Stew-O: Xander pulls Milli up in the corner, and irish whips her HARD into the opposite corner, putting his strength advantage to good use! Milli drops to both knees before falling to all fours, favoring the back.

Flannery McCoy: Xander stands Milli back up, and sends her out through the middle rope. Payne exits the ring shortly after, and continues the attack on Milli, pulling her up to a vertical base, and sending her BACK FIRST into a corner of the barricade! Xander isn’t done, and sends Milli BACK FIRST into another corner of the barricade!

Stew-O: Xander stands Milli up, and leans her back against the barricade, talking trash to her briefly before rolling Milli back inside the ring. Milli rises to a knee, and Xander goes to climb up on the apron- BUT MILLI CONNECTS WITH A BASEBALL SLIDE! XANDER GETS KNOCKED BACK INTO THE BARRICADE, BUT IS ABLE TO SHRUG THE BLOW OFF!

Jake Mercer: Xander approaches the ring, and Milli tries for ANOTHER baseball slide! BUT XANDER PAYNE SIDE STEPS OUT THE WAY! MILLI SLIDES UNDERNEATH THE BOTTOM ROPE, LANDING ON HER FEET, AND SPINS AROUND INTO A CLOTHESLINE!

Flannery McCoy: Xander Payne has been dominating early on, but look at that. He gave Milli Banks a sliver of recovery time, and she was able to turn the tables, albeit momentarily.

Stew-O: Yeah, so that was a message for Xander that he has to stay on top of her, not give her too much space, not give her too much opportunity to breathe. Xander rolls Milli back inside in the ring, and slides in himself shortly after. Milli has risen to a knee, and Xander approaches, grabbing her by the head-

Flannery McCoy: Milli! Milli fights back with a shot to the rib cage, but Xander immediately responds with a clubbing blow to the back! Xander drags Milli by the hair, and hangs her across the middle rope, choking her across it as he presses his forearm on the back of Milli’s neck! Referee has no choice but to get involved, giving Xander til the count of five!

Referee: ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR!

Stew-O: Xander breaks just before the count of five, and that was deliberate by the Hall of Famer, maximizing all his seconds to inflict the most pain on Milli, who remains up to a knee, coughing for air.

Jake Mercer: The referee pulls Xander away from Milli, attempting to give her space, but Xander pushes past him, grabbing hold of Milli, and directing her to the center of the ring for a SNAPMARE! Xander follows that up with a grounded rear chinlock!

Flannery McCoy: This buys Xander time to recover, and possibly think up his next move while, at the same time, grounding Milli Banks, and wearing her down even further. Last thing Xander wants is for Milli to start gaining momentum, because she’ll be nearly unstoppable at that point.

Stew-O: The fans rally behind Milli Banks, and she appears to fuel off their energy as she powers back to her feet. Milli scores with multiple shots to the rib cage, loosening Xander’s grip before EXPLODING with a forearm strike! Xander is stunned, and Milli goes to run off the ropes!

Flannery McCoy: BUT XANDER CUTS HER OFF WITH A HAIR PULL MAT SLAM, SENDING BANKS BACK DOWN TO THE CANVAS! Xander reaches down to grab Milli’s head, BUT MILLI TURNS IT INTO A VICTORY ROLL!

ONNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEE!!

TWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOO!!

THH-

Stew-O: KICKOUT! MILLI ROLLS THROUGH TO HER FEET, XANDER SCRAMBLES TO A KNEE! MILLI GOES FOR A ROUNDHOUSE KICK- BUT XANDER DUCKS UNDERNEATH IT, AND DOUBLES MILLI OVER WITH A KICK TO THE GUT!

Flannery McCoy: XANDER RUNS OFF THE ROPES- BUT MILLI DROPS DOWN, FORCING PAYNE TO JUMP OVER HER! XANDER REBOUNDS OFF THE ROPES AGAIN, AND MILLI LEAPS IN THE AIR FOR A LEAPFROG!

Jake Mercer: BUT XANDER CATCHES HER OUT OF MID AIR IN A FIREMANS CARRY, AND TURNS IT INTO A DEATH VALLEY DRIVER! COVER IS MADE!

ONNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEE!!

TWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOO!!

TH-

Stew-O: SHOULDER UP! Milli got the shoulder up, and makes it all fours. Xander pulls her up from behind, and SLAMS Milli down with a back suplex! Another cover is made, hooking the leg deep!

ONNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEE!!

TWWWWWWOOOOOOO-

Flannery McCoy: Kickout! Xander Payne immediately transitions into a chinlock. Notice he isn’t taking much time to think on what he’s going to do next, he just a plan B when plan A doesn’t work out.

Jake Mercer: Well, I hope he has a plan B here, because Milli Banks is powering back to her feet, and starts to loosen his grip with back elbows to the abdomen!

Stew-O: Milli EXPLODES with a shoot kick to the side of Xander’s knee! FOLLOWING THAT UP WITH A SPINNING BACKFIST! BUT XANDER FIRES BACK WITH A STIFF FOREARM SMASH TO THE FACE! Milli stumbles to the corner as a result, and Xander charges in!

Flannery McCoy: BACK ELBOW! XANDER GOT CAUGHT WITH A BACK ELBOW BY MILLI BANKS, WHO HOPS TO THE MIDDLE ROPE! BUT XANDER GRABS MILLI BY THE ANKLE, AND YANKS HER OFF INTO A CRADLE BACKBREAKER! XANDER SHOOTS THE HALF, AND HOOKS THE LEG!

ONNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEE!!

TWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOO!!

Stew-O: AGAIN, SHOULDER UP! Milli Banks has been on the receiving end of tons of punishment by the Hall of Famer, but still has fight left in her, which appears to be frustrating Xander Payne.

Jake Mercer: Yeah, look at the disrespect, shoving Milli’s head with his boot as she rose to all fours.

Flannery McCoy: Xander pulls Milli up to her feet, BUT MILLI STARTS TO BATTLE BACK WITH A FOREARM! Xander Payne staggers back as Milli drops to a knee, the wear and tear beginning to show. Xander manages to shrug off the big blow given to him by Banks, and goes to stand her back up-

Stew-O: BUT MILLI BANKS CONNECTS WITH ANOTHER FOREARM STRIKE! Again, Xander staggers back, but Milli drops to a knee from exhaustion, along with the punishment she’s taken thus far. Xander marches toward her, and stands Milli up. MILLI GOES FOR A KICK TO THE MIDSECTION-

Flannery McCoy: BUT XANDER CATCHES IT, AND TRIES TO FLIP MILLI! BUT MILLI BACKFLIPS ON HER FEET! XANDER GOES FOR A CLOTHESLINE, BUT MILLI ROLLS UNDERNEATH IT, AND BACKFLIPS INTO XANDER FOR A HEADSCISSORS TAKEDOWN!

Stew-O: XANDER ROLLS TO THE OUTSIDE, AND MILLI BEGINS FIRING UP! RUNNING OFF THE ROPES FOR A TOPE CON HILO! MILLI TAKES A MOMENT TO HIGH FIVE FANS IN THE FRONT ROW BEFORE ROLLING XANDER PAYNE BACK INSIDE THE RING!

Jake Mercer: MILLI CLIMBS TO THE TOP ROPE! BUT XANDER PAYNE RUSHES HER, FORCING MILLI TO LEAP OVER HIM, AND ROLL THROUGH TO HER FEET! MILLI CHARGES XANDER, AND PLANTS HIM WITH A TILT A WHIRL FACEBUSTER! MILLI SHOOTS THE HALF FOR A COVER!

ONNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEE!!

TWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOO!!

THHHHHHHRRRRRRRRR-

Flannery McCoy: NO! XANDER KICKS OUT! XANDER GOT THE SHOULDER UP!

Stew-O: Xander rolls away from Milli, but finds himself in perfect positioning for Milli-On-Air. Banks sees this, and quickly heads to the top rope. BUT PAYNE WAS PLAYING POSSUM, AND STUNS MILLI WITH A HUGE FOREARM! Xander connects with another, and climbs to the middle rope, hooking Milli up for a superplex!

Flannery McCoy: BUT MILLI HANGS ONTO THE TOP ROPE, REFUSING TO LET GO! AND MILLI STARTS TO FIGHT BACK WITH SHOTS TO THE RIB CAGE! MILLI STARTS TO LAND PUNCHES TO THE FACE, AND REALLY WINDS BACK ON ONE, KNOCKING XANDER OFF THE MIDDLE ROPE! XANDER REMAINS ON HIS FEET, ALBEIT STAGGERED! MILLI GOES TO PERCH HERSELF ON THE TOP ROPE-

Stew-O: BUT XANDER PAYNE QUICKLY RUSHES TO THE MIDDLE ROPE, GRABBING A HANDFUL OF MILLI’S HAIR AS SHE CLIMBS DOWN TO THE APRON! MILLI TAGS XANDER RIGHT BETWEEN THE EYES WITH A ROPE-ASSISTED ENZIGURI, AND THE HALL OF FAMER HITS THE CANVAS HARD, BEING KNOCKED OFF THE MIDDLE ROPE!

Jake Mercer: AND LOOK OF THE EYES OF MILLI BANKS AS SHE SEES XANDER PAYNE SPRAWLED ON THE CANVAS!

Flannery McCoy: MILLI CLIMBS TO THE TOP ROPE! THE WHOLE CROWD KNOWS WHATS COMING! MILLI-ON-AIR! CORKSCREW SHOOTING STAR PRESS… DOESNT CONNECT AS XANDER ROLLS OUT OF THE WAY!

Stew-O: MILLI FAVORS HER RIBS AS SHE STRUGGLES BACK TO HER FEET, AND TURNS AROUND! XANDER SHOOTS OUT OF THE CORNER WITH A SHOTGUN DROPKICK! MILLI GOT TURNED INSIDE OUT BY THE KODIAK CANNON, AND XANDER SHOOTS THE HALF FOR A COVER!

ONNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEE!!

TWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOO!!

THHHHHHRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEE-

Flannery McCoy: ALMOST! ALMOST, BUT MILLI GOT THE SHOULDER UP! Xander is irate, and grabs the referee by his shirt, wanting affirmation that the count was a two!

Jake Mercer: Xander needs to be careful not to be disqualified!

Stew-O: Xander averts his attention back to Milli Banks as she begins stirring, stalking her as she gets to a knee. Xander has her lined up, and goes for a SUPERKICK! BUT MILLI CATCHES THE BOOT, AND RISES BACK TO HER FEET! MILLI THROWS IT DOWN, AND STARTS TO BOMBARD XANDER WITH STRIKES! FOREARM, CHOP, FOREARM, CHOP!

Flannery McCoy: MILLI BEATS XANDER BACK INTO THE CORNER, AND PAYS HIM BACK FROM EARLIER, STOMPING A MUDHOLE INTO PAYNE AS HE TRIES TO COVER UP, BEING BEATEN DOWN TO THE BOTTOM TURNBUCKLE!

Stew-O: The referee intervenes, pulling Milli away from Xander. Once able to, Milli marches back toward a seated Payne in the corner, BUT EATS A KICK TO THE GUT FOR HER TROUBLES! Milli staggers to the center of the ring, and Xander comes from behind, looking for a back suplex-

Flannery McCoy: BUT MILLI BACKFLIPS ONTO HER FEET! XANDER SPINS AROUND- ALMOST GETS CAUGHT WITH A KICK TO THE MIDSECTION HIMSELF! BUT XANDER CATCHES THE BOOT, AND MILLI BACKFLIPS ONTO HER FEET, REMINISCENT OF EARLIER- NO!

Jake Mercer: THIS TIME, XANDER HAS AN ANSWER, AND SUPERKICKS MILLI IN THE FACE! MILLI FALLS TO THE CANVAS, AND XANDER QUICKLY DROPS INTO THE COVER, HOOKING THE LEG!!

ONNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEE!!

TWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOO!!

THHHHHHHRRRRRREEEEEEE-

Stew-O: KICKOUT! MILLI BANKS KICKS OUT, AND XANDER STARTS TO POUND THE MAT IN FRUSTRATION! SEEMS LIKE NO MATTER WHAT HE THROWS AT MILLI BANKS, SHE KEEPS FINDING WAYS TO KICK OUT, AND KEEP GOING!

Jake Mercer: But is it doing more harm than good?! Because Xander has a look in his eyes that says he wants to kill Milli Banks!

Flannery McCoy: And he just might kill part of Milli Banks, the part that allows her to keep kicking out. Xander pulls Milli up to her feet, and looks in her eyes momentarily. Milli looks glossed over, but Xander is intense as can be. MILLI GETS SENT TO THE ROPES FOR THE LAST SEDATION! POP-UP POWER-

Stew-O: DIAMONDS DANCING! MILLI TURNED IT INTO THAT DOUBLE KNEE FACEBREAKER! XANDER IS DOWN, AND MILLI RUSHES TO THE TOP ROPE, MOVING WITH URGENCY, AND MOVING WITH A PURPOSE!

Flannery McCoy: MILLI PERCHES HERSELF ON THE TOP ROPE, THE ANTICIPATION BEGINNING TO BUILD BEFORE SHE LEAPS IN THE AIR FOR THAT CORKSCREW SHOOTING STAR PRESS! MILLI-ON-AIR HITS ITS TARGET, AND HOOKS THE LEG FOR A COVER!

ONNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEE!!

TWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOO!!

THHHHHHHHRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEE!!

(DING! DING! DING!)

Stephie Love: HERES YOUR WINNER… MILLI BANKS!!

(‘Changed It’ by Nicki Minaj feat. Lil Wayne plays to a loud ovation from fans as Milli steps over Xander Payne’s body to have her hand raised in victory before she starts to bop around, dancing as she was during her entrance.)

Stew-O: Milli picks up in the win!

Flannery McCoy: Yeah, and one thing is for certain, you can’t say she didn’t earn it, gritting through all Xander Payne threw at her, and still coming out on top.

Stew-O: Speaking of, Xander Payne put up one hell of a fight, forcing Milli to fight from underneath for half this thing. But in the end, he couldn’t avoid getting caught with that corkscrew shooting star press, which never ceases to amaze me.

Jake Mercer: Couldn’t have been that hard for Milli to hit. After all, she did have a huge target. :troll:

Stew-O: You wanna say that to Xander’s face? It looks like he’s coming toward our announce table.

Jake Mercer: :whoa:

(Milli Banks backpedals up the ramp, proud of the victory she scored. Meanwhile, Xander Payne staggers toward the announce table, and leans forward on it before freaking out, clearing the table of it’s cover, and monitors shortly afterwards.)

Stew-O: Well, Xander isn’t exactly taking the loss well-

(Xander kicks the steels steps, dislodging them.)

Flannery McCoy: Sometimes, a competitor finds themselves being sent over the edge, and I think that’s where Xander is right now!

Jake Mercer: :lupe:

Stew-O: Hey, what’s he doing?!

(Xander marches toward Stephie Love, and takes the chair she was sitting on before smashing the chair on the ringpost repeatedly.)

Stew-O: We might need security out here, Xander Payne has completely lost his mind.

(Xander tosses the steel chair aside, and starts heading to the back, seething with rage still, and telling fans that hurl insults to “shut up” as the camera fades elsewhere.)

(A commercial plays for Fortnite, with Jon Kelton trying to wake a sleeping Halsey Neel up after she passed out during gameplay.)

(Dynasty returns from commercial break and Stephie Love is already in the ring.)

Stephie Love: THE FOLLOWING CONTEST IS YOUR MAAAAIN EVENT, AND IT IS A TAG TEAM MATCH SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL!!!

Crowd: ONE FALL!!!!!

(‘Arkadia’ by BABYMETAL would hit the speakers to an explosion of boos, as Prince Tohru and Shinzo Sasaki would both make their way out onto the stage representing KAI-ZEN tonight, with Ricky there along with them. The two are looking to bounce back, as they begin to make their way down to the ring.)

Stephie Love: INTRODUCING FIRST, ACCOMPANIED TO THE RING BY RICKY, THEY ARE THE TEAM OF PRINCE TOHRU AND SHINZO SASAKI… KAIIII-ZEEEENNNN!!!!!!!!!!

Stew-O: Last week at King Of Elite didn’t go so well for KAI-ZEN, with Prince failing to capture the New Breed Championship, along with Shinzo failing to capture the Interwire Championship, but tonight looks to be the bounce back for the two of them.

Flannery McCoy: But to get through that bounce back, they are going to have to defeat two former World Champions in the form of Chris Elite and Jake Smith.

(And then, ‘Shake It’ by Metro Station would hit the speakers, and the crowd would erupt into a frenzy of cheers, as Jake Smith and Chris Elite make their way out onto the stage together, The Haircare Kings reuniting once more here tonight as they make their way down the ramp together.)

Stephie Love: AND THEIR OPPONENTS, THEY ARE THE TEAM OF JAKE SMITH AND CHRIS ELITE… THEEE HAIRCAREEEEEEE KINGSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!

Flannery McCoy: And KAI-ZEN may not have had the best of weeks at King Of Elite, but you can make the argument that The Haircare Kings, Jake Smith and Chris Elite, might have had it all that much worse than them.

Stew-O: Jake Smith failing to capture the World Heavyweight Championship, Chris Elite failing to capture a shot at the World Heavyweight Championship, you can tell neither man is happy right now but they are stepping into tonight reunited one more to take out the opposition.

(DING! DING! DING!)

Stew-O: And your main event of Friday Night Dynasty is now underway! The Haircare Kings once more reunite inside of an EAW ring, as they take on the team of Prince Tohru and Shinzo Sasaki from KAI-ZEN! And it looks like we are going to start this match off with Chris Elite and Shizno, these two have had many encounters within the past and it looks like it will be renewed once more here tonight, as they rush towards the centre of the ring, and engage into a quick collar and elbow tie up to start!

Flannery McCoy: And both men are managing to hold their ground early on within this match, but the size advantage of Shinzo is going to pose a threat to Chris Elite early on here, as he breaks right through the lockup and pulls him forward into a side headlock. Elite looked to escape this quickly, but Shinzo seized the headlock in, keeping ‘Uncle’ Chris at bay early on in this match… but Chris manages to slip out of the way and go into a waist lock in an attempt to ground Shizno now.

Jake Mercer: But Shizno was quick to reach behind and once again grasp onto Elite by the head, BEFORE THROWING HIM OVER AND INTO THE MAT! Elite falls hard onto his side, as he was quick to attempt getting back up, BUT SHIZNO WITH ONE STEP FORWARD IS ENOUGH POWER IN ORDER TO KNOCK ELITE DOWN INTO THE MAT WITH A SHOULDER BLOCK! Elite is down, and Shinzo was going to take advantage, grasping onto Elite by the wrist as he pulled him into KAI-ZEN’s corner, and got the tag to Prince Tohru!

(TAG!)

Stew-O: And Prince quickly entered the ring while Elite was struggling to get out of the grasp of Shizno… AND PRINCE STOMPS DOWN ONTO HIS RIBCAGE! The ring was being cut down early on within this match, as Prince would lift Elite back up to his feet, leaning him up against the ropes, before throwing a knife edge chop right across the chest of ‘Gawd Given Greatness,’ and Chris Elite is left defenceless right now, as Tohru then strikes with yet a second chop, and then with a third one!

Flannery McCoy: BUT LOOK; CHRIS ELITE IS FIGHTING BACK, AS HE STRIKES PRINCE TOHRU WITH A RIGHT HAND! AND HE GOES FOR A SECOND ONE- ONLY FOR IT TO BE BLOCKED BY TOHRU, WHO PUSHES ELITE BACK INTO THE ROPES AND KNEES HIM RIGHT BACK INTO THE RIBCAGE! Chris Elite is in a world of hurt as he reaches back out, and tags Shinzo back into the match, this is an amazing strategy by KAI-ZEN early on here!

(TAG!)

Jake Mercer: Shizno gets the tag back into the mat as Prince was going to keep Chris held up in the ropes, AND SHINZO FROM THE APRON KNEES ELITE RIGHT IN THE SPINE! That had to hurt! Elite crumbles to his knees as Prince leaves the ring, with Shinzo entering and now he is going to continue the beat down, as he throws him around and into a seated position with a snapmare, before shooting off the ropes right near Jake Smith, AND A DROPKICK TO THE FACE! THE COVER!

ONEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
TWOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

Stew-O: BUT CHRIS ELITE STAYS ALIVE WITHIN THIS MATCH! Despite the punishment that has been done to him early on, he manages to stay alive, and Shinzo Sasaki did not look happy about it whatsoever, but he was going to have to come to terms with it and accept it. He gets back to his feet and grabs a hold of Elite, pulling him back over into a grounded headlock and locks it in tight.

Flannery McCoy: Chris Elite is trying his hardest to fight back against Shinzo, but it just isn’t enough as the headlock is keeping him down and grounded, but Elite is starting to get back to his feet, and he begins to strike with right hands to the gut… but Shinzo is going to redirect, and he pushes backward instead of forward, right over and back into the corner of KAI-ZEN, as Prince Tohru slaps him hard on the back for another tag!

(TAG!)

Jake Mercer: And you can tell from the struggle by Elite that he understands that the tag was once more made, as Prince Tohru quickly enters into the ring, BUT ELITE STRIKES SHINZO GOOD ENOUGH TO GET HIM TO LET GO, AND NOW ELITE QUICKLY REACTS AND GOES FOR A RIGHT HAND TO TOHRU, BUT TOHRU DUCKS IT… BUT ELITE WITH A SLAP TO THE FACE! Tohru is stunned, and Elite then with a kick to the gut forcing him to double over!

Stew-O: Chris Elite is finally finding himself with some offence within this match as he looks to take advantage of the opening that he has created, shooting right off of the ropes… BUT TOHRU WAS QUICK TO RECOVER AS HE PUSHES FORWARD, TWISTING HIMSELF TO THE SIDE AS HE DROPS ELITE BACK TO THE MAT WITH A BACK ELBOW STRIKE! ELITE IS DOWN, AND TOHRU QUICKLY FOLLOWS HIM TO THE MAT FOR YET ANOTHER COVER!

ONEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
TWOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

Flannery McCoy: Another kick out by Chris Elite! Elite is going to keep The Haircare Kings alive within this match, as Jake Smith is hyped up on the apron, trying his hardest to get Chris Elite back into this! Prince Tohru quickly shoots back up to his feet as he rips Elite up as well, hooking onto him by the head, AND HE BEGINS TO LIFT HIM INTO THE AIR FOR A SNAP VERTICAL SUPLEX, BUT ELITE TWISTS OUT OF IT AND LANDS BEHIND TOHRU ON HIS FEET! Tohru doesn’t know what happened, AND A JUMPING NECKBREAKER BY CHRIS ELITE!

Jake Mercer: AND PRINCE TOHRU GETS SLAMMED DOWN HARD INTO THE MAT, HOLDING THE BACK OF HIS HEAD! Chris Elite scrambles back up to his feet as he falls backward into the ropes, rebounding off of them and pushing forward, BEFORE LEAPING INTO THE AIR FOR A STANDING SHOOTING STAR PRESS! CHRIS ELITE JUST CRUSHED PRINCE TOHRU IN THE RIBCAGE! This is exactly what Elite needed right here in order to get back into this match!

Stew-O: And he is going to lift Prince Tohru back up to his feet and hooks onto his head, lifting him up into the air, BEFORE TWISTING AROUND AND SPIKING TOHRU INTO THE MAT WITH A TWISTING BRAINBUSTER! TOHRU GETS PLANTED INTO THE MAT AS ELITE ROLLS OVER AND INTO THE COVER!

ONEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
TWOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

Flannery McCoy: Prince Tohru with the kick out, but Chris Elite was going to be quick to respond, rolling over, AND HE TAGS JAKE SMITH INTO THE MATCH! JAKE IS IN!

(TAG!)

Jake Mercer: AND JAKE SMITH RUSHES INTO THE RING AS PRINCE TOHRU STUMBLED UP TO HIS FEET, AND HE RUSHES AT JAKE, ONLY FOR JAKE TO DUCK UNDER… AND HE NAILS SHINZO OFF OF THE APRON WITH A MASSIVE SUPERKICK!!!! Shinzo is down and Shinzo is knocked out cold, as Jake turns back around, but Prince rushes right in at him, only for Jake to move and duck out of the way, sending Prince rebounding chest first off the ropes, INTO A MASSIVE BACKSTABBER! BACKSTABBER BY THE “NEW”JAKE SMITH!

Stew-O: Jake is on a roll right now one week removed from failing to capture the World Heavyweight Championship as he quickly floats over and around, and begins to nail Prince with lefts and rights and making sure that he stays down and he stays out! Prince tried to get his guard up the whole time but it had no effect on him whatsoever, as he has to forcefully push Jake off of him, and Jake pushed up to his feet noticing that Shinzo was slowly getting back up as well… AND JAKE RUNS OFF OF THE ROPES!!!!

Flannery McCoy: SUICIDE DIVE!!!! JAKE SMITH WITH A SUICIDE DIVE TO SHINZO SASAKI SENDS HIM FLYING OVER OUR ANNOUNCER’S TABLE IN THE PROCESS OF DOING SO! Shinzo is laid out as Jake gets back to his feet and listens to everyone who is behind him right now! He quickly pops back up onto the apron, and he goes to enter the ring… wait! Prince catches him and he kicks the middle rope upward and into the face of Smith! Smith has to be hurting right here as he stumbles back into the ring!

Jake Mercer: And Prince pushes forward and at Jake, but Jake moves out of the way! Prince turns around… and a bicycle pump kick attempt by Jake, but it is blocked and pushed down by Prince, who looks to follow up with a massive lariat, but Jake moves to the side, only for Prince to catch him with a back elbow to the face!

Flannery McCoy: BUT SHINZO SASAKI MANAGES TO JUMP INTO THE RING TO BREAK UP THE PINFALL!!!! Sasaki keeps this match going for KAI-ZEN, as he gets back to his feet, but Chris Elite is back in! Sasaki rushes at Elite for a clothesline, but Elite ducks under and sends Sasaki forward towards the ropes, before leaping at him, AND BOTH MEN GO FLYING OVER THE TOP ROPE AND TO THE RINGSIDE FLOOR WITH A CACTUS CLOTHESLINE, BUT ELITE LANDS ON HIS FEET! Elite hooks onto Sasaki by the head, AND SLAMS HIM INTO THE CORNER OF THE BARRICADE, AND HARD!

Jake Mercer: And Chris Elite is going to rush over and back to his corner, hopping up onto the apron, and he begins calling Jake Smith over for the tag! Jake begins to rise back up to his feet, crawling towards the tag to be made, AS HE GOES TO JUMP FOR IT… BUT TOHRU SPRINGS INTO THE AIR AND HE COMES CRASHING DOWN ONTO THE BACK OF JAKE’S HEAD WITH A JUMPING DOUBLE FOOT STOMP!!! WHAT THE HELL?! JAKE WENT FOR THE HOT TAG AND GOT COMPLETELY DENIED BY TOHRU!

Stew-O: And Tohru is going to get back to his feet, spotting Chris Elite, and he goes to swing right at him but Elite ducks under it… before he goes for an enziguri kick to the side of Tohru’s head from the apron! BUT TOHRU CATCHES ELITE’S LEGS… AND HE BRINGS ELITE INTO THE RING OVER THE ROPES, HOLDING HIM IN HIS ARMS LIKE HE WAS A BABY AS HE TURNS AROUND, WHERE JAKE WAS GETTING TO ALL FOURS… AND HE TWISTS ELITE AROUND BEFORE DROPPING HIM INTO JAKE’S BACK WITH A POWERSLAM!!! HE USED JAKE’S OWN PARTNER AGAINST HIM!

Flannery McCoy: AND PRINCE WASN’T EVEN DONE THERE, AS HE YANKS CHRIS RIGHT BACK INTO HIS ARMS LIKE HE WAS NOTHING… AND A POWERBOMB INTO THE MAT! Chris Elite was down and out and Shinzo is going to slide half his body in, in order to grab Elite’s legs and yank him out of the ring! KAI-ZEN are cutting down The Haircare Kings as Chris Elite drops lifeless to the ringside floor, and Shinzo rushes back to his corner, while Prince is going to drag Jake over, and he makes the tag! Shinzo is the legal man of this match!

(TAG!)

Jake Mercer: Jake Smith is a lifeless, lifeless man right now as Prince is going to grab hold of him and lift him up to his feet, and they bring him back over towards the centre of the ring… AS PRINCE LIFTS JAKE HIGH INTO THE AIR IN A VERTICAL SUPLEX POSITION, BEFORE THROWING HIM AND PASSING HIM RIGHT ON OVER TO SHINZO SASAKI!!!!! THE ‘ENTER THE DRAGON’ BRAINBUSTER HITS, ‘ENTER THE VORTEX’ CONNECTING ON JAKE SMITH! JAKE IS OUT COLD AS SHINZO QUICKLY GOES INTO THE COVER, FOR THE WIN FOR KAI-ZEN WITH RICKY WATCHING ON IN ABSOLUTE DELIGHT!

ONEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
TWOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

Stew-O: KICK OUT BY SMITH!!!! KICK OUT BY JAKE SMITH!!!! KAI-ZEN thought that they had this match won right then and there but it’s not over, not just yet, as Jake Smith keeps this alive for The Haircare Kings, and both Shinzo and Tohru are starting to grow more and more pissed off because of it! Shinzo gets back up to his feet, as he grabs Jake by the chin, guiding him up as well, and Jake has to look up and into Shinzo’s face… AND JAKE SPITS AT HIM! JAKE SMITH JUST SPAT IN THE FACE OF SHINZO SASAKI!

Flannery McCoy: AND SHINZO IS PISSED OFF, WHO YANKS JAKE RIGHT UP TO HIS FEET, BEFORE COMPLETELY KNOCKING HIM OUT COLD WITH A DEVIOUS HEADBUTT!!!! Jake just had to take that headbutt, but Shinzo wasn’t going to let him drop to the mat, he quickly hooked onto him, and clutched his wrist… AND SHINZO WAS GOING TO PUT AN END TO THIS MATCH ONCE AND FOR ALL AND PROCLAIM KAI-ZEN THE WINNERS… WITH ‘MADVILLAINY!!!!!!’ WRIST CLUTCH EXPLODER SUPLEX CONNECTS HERE—

Jake Mercer: —JAKE LANDS OUT ON HIS FEET! SHINZO TURNS… SUPERKICK! JAKE STUMBLES INTO THE CORNER, AND A TAG TO CHRIS ELITE! TAG IS MADE!


(TAG!)

Stew-O: AND CHRIS ELITE IMMEDIATELY SPRINGBOARDS ONTO THE ROPES, AND HE TAKES SHINZO SASAKI OUT WITH A HUGE SPRINGBOARD EUROPEAN UPPERCUT!!!! Shinzo is down and out and Chris pops to his feet, quickly running over and he takes Prince down and off the apron! Shinzo Sasaki starts to get back to his feet… AND ELITE PUSHES FORWARD FOR THE ‘BOX OFFICE SMASH’ BUT SASAKI DUCKS TO THE SIDE… ONLY TO BE CAUGHT WITH A PELE KICK!!!! Chris Elite gets right back to his feet and he is on a roll right now, and there is no one who’s stopping him!

Flannery McCoy: Shinzo starts to slowly get back to his feet… and a forearm smash by Chris Elite connects, sending him back and into the ropes, and Elite is going to clutch onto him by the wrist, irish whipping him, but Shinzo counters it and sends Elite instead, ELITE REBOUNDS OFF THE ROPES AND HE FLIPS OVER SHINZO WITH A SUNSET PINFALL BUT ROLLS THROUGH IT, AND A ROUNDHOUSE KICK TO THE HEAD CONNECTS! AND ELITE IS GOING TO LIFT HIM BACK TO HIS FEET, HOOKING HIS HEAD AND DROPPING HIM INTO THE MAT WITH A DDT! SHINZO SASAKI’S OUT!

Jake Mercer: But look, Prince Tohru was quick to grab Chris Elite from the outside and he drags him to the outside of the ring, BUT ELITE QUICKLY FIGHTS BACK AND HE SENDS TOHRU CRASHING INTO THE STEEL STEPS! THE HAIRCARE KINGS ARE NOT HERE TO PLAY TONIGHT, AS ELITE LEAPS BACK ONTO THE APON, AND HE HAS SHINZO IN HIS CROSSHAIRS… SPRINGBOARDING ONTO THE ROPES ONE MORE TIME; THIS TIME FOR ‘AIMIN FOR THE MOON!!!!!’ THE SPRINGBOARD 450 CONNECTS—

TTTHHRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEE………



(BAAAAAAAAAAANG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Jake Mercer: WHAT THE HELL?!?!?!?\

Flannery McCoy: HOLY SHIT????

Stew-O: ’KAIOKEEEEEEEEEEEEEENNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!’ JAKE SMITH JUST… HE NAILED HIS OWN TAG TEAM PARTNER IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD WITH THE RUNNING SHINING WIZARD!!!!! We thought he was down and out from that handspring back elbow by Sasaki, but looking back at it now, he just barely moved a bit too much over to the side and that in result made it so he didn’t take much of the impact either!

Flannery McCoy: But why?! These two were like best friends almost, through hell and back, when fighting against each other or with each other, they always had each other’s back no matter what, and Jake Smith just nailed Elite in the back of the head with a shining wizard and broke all of that in a near instant! Why, Jake?!

Jake Mercer: Whatever it may be… I LOVE IT!!!! HAHAHAH! I LOVE EVERY LAST SECOND OF THIS! JAKE SMITH YOU BASTARD! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Stew-O: And look at Jake Smith, just staring down at Chris Elite, he was as remorseless as one could possibly be, that cold stare… before he leaves the ring! Jake is just leaving the ring and leaving his tag partner for dead, as he begins to make his way up the ramp, and he isn’t looking back… AND SHINZO ROLLS OVER AND HE THROWS HIS ARM ONTO CHRIS ELITE FOR THE COVER! CHRIS ELITE IS KNOCKED OUT COLD!

ONEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
TWOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
TTTHHRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(DING! DING! DING!)

Stephie Love: HERE ARE YOUR WINNERS… PRINCE TOHRU AND SHINZO SASAKI… KAIIIIIIIIIIII-ZENNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(‘Arkadia’ would hit the speakers once more as Prince Tohru would slowly crawl over to Shinzo Sasaki, helping him up into a seated position as the two men held onto each other, knowing that tonight, they were victorious. Ricky would enter the ring, helping them both up.)

Stew-O: I am still in utter shock…

Flannery McCoy: My question for Jake remains the same; why?!-

Jake Mercer: WHO CARES, WHY?! HE GOT RID OF THAT BOZO AND WITH GOOD REASON! The “Process” TRULY begins now for Jake Smith, carving his path to becoming a bonafide Hall Of Famer in EAW. But tonight, it was at the expense of a defeat. Congratulations to my personal goats, KAI-ZEN!

(KAI-ZEN would continue to celebrate their victory, as Jake Smith was seen at the top of the stage, looking up at the titantron that showed Chris Elite stirring in the ring. Jake watched on, before simply walking away, as Dynasty fades into commercial.)

(A commercial plays for Expedia, with Milli Banks and Ms. Extreme begrudgingly sitting next to each other on a plane.)

(‘They Call Me a God’ by NEFFEX hits. Ms. Extreme steps out, receiving a mixed ovation. She doesn’t care though. In fact, she looks mightly pleased. There’s an unmistakable smirk to her face, knowing that in the end, she won at King of Elite. The doubts, the jokes, they were over with. She nods her head, proud as can be as she heads down the ramp and towards the ring.)

Stephie Love: Ladies and gentlemen, introducing at this time…. MSSSSSSS. EEEEEEXXXXTREEEEEEEMMMEMEEEEEEEEE!

Stew-O: And here she is, the woman who outlasted Milli Banks and Chris Elite to win at King of Elite after an intense triple threat match. All three Elitists put everything on the line out there, but in the end, it would be Ms. Extreme who would earn herself a win and a shot at a world title of her choosing at Operation: Doomsday!


Jake Mercer: Love her or hate her, she did the damn thing. She went out there, went to war, and came out with a golden opportunity in the hands. Now, we just have to wait and see for ourselves which route is she going to go towards! Will she set sail on uncharted territories and try her hand at the world heavyweight championship, or will she famiiarize herself with a gold synonymous with her name in the universal women’s championship?

(Ms. Extreme gets in the ring and is handed a microphone. She smirks, standing right in the middle.)

Ms. Extreme: I did it.

(Vindicated. That was the feeling. Saying those words out loud made her grin even wider.)

Ms. Extreme: I don’t care if you like me for it. I don’t care if you respect me for it. However, I’m not going to be denied. I went out there and won the match just when everyone was getting too big for their britches and thought that my time at the top had long sailed. So many people wanted that to be the case. They wanted this idea that I had fallen off to stick. They wanted there to be doubt around my name. In the end, I cleared any and all doubts there were. At King of Eite, I kicked ass, and now, I am one step closer to getting a championship in my hands. For weeks people have questioned whether or not I deserved to be in that triple threat, but I like to think that doesn’t matter anymore. I deserved to be here, and now, no one can say I don’t deserve that win. Chris Elite can sulk off elsewhere, and Milli Banks can be sick and beside herself that the woman she hates the most outdid when it truly mattered the most. At this point? They’re both in my rear view. They mean little to me, especially when they don’t have any gold for me to collect. They can have fun slumming it up in the Iron Survivor challenge and having to deal with all that pressure to win. As for me? I’ll sleep on the cool side of my pillow comfortably knowing that I backed my words up, and because of it, I’m heading to Operation: Doomsday with a title match I am more than worthy of having.

Ms. Extreme: I guess that makes me entitled, but hey, I’ve never been one to shy away from that. 😉

(She chuckles.)

Ms. Extreme: … But on a serious note, it feels great to win. It feels even better knowing I decided to grab this kind of opportunity by my hands and seized it when I had the chance to. I knew I had what it took to be a champion again, and I have never dared to think any less of myself. Losing to Kassidy and Milli did sting, but it fueled a fire in me that was never going to die. I wasn’t going to let those setbacks get to me whatsoever. At the end of the day, I’m Ms. Extreme. I am one of one, and no one can or ever will be me. I’m a future hall of famer, a former world champion, the longest-reigning PURE and Universal Women’s Champion of all time, and my legacy, especially as it stands now, remains intact. People can say or do whatever, but I will always be the one who is left standing. I’ll never break. I’ll never doubt myself. I’ll never let any idiot try and instill this sense that I should just hang it up and call it quits. The only way I’m leaving is when I say so on my terms, but with the ambition and drive that I have, it’s going to be a long, long time before I ever decide to step away from the ring completely.

Ms. Extreme: I mean, I’m not insecure. I don’t let the words of detractors get to me. Never have and never will, but let’s say I entertained that sort of idea of leaving and never coming back. Well, I wouldn’t have owned Devolution completely. I wouldn’t have won Brand Warfare. I wouldn’t have been able to stake my claim for Operation: Doomsday, and I wouldn’t have been able to become one step closer to becoming a world champion again. After all of the hard work I put in, I would’ve made all of that go to waste. So, if you’re tired of seeing my face, then I’m sorry to break the news to you.

(A pause. Then, a shrug.)

Ms. Extreme: Actually, I’m not. I’m more than happy to say that I’m staying right here and I don’t give a fuck what anyone has to say about it.

(Her smirk widens.)

Ms. Extreme: I’ll never leave. Not when I can see the gold ahead. In fact, I bet you all have been real curious about which championship I’m going after, huh?

Crowd: :lupe:

Ms. Extreme: You know, I had all week long to mull over this. Both championships are tempting. The World Heavyweight Championship is decorated here on Dynasty, and no woman has been able to win it yet. On the flip side, the Universal Women’s Championship is like my child. I hold it near and dear to me. I made history off of that title, and my name is forever attached to it. The thought of getting to win it again, and especially off of the woman currently holding it hasn’t escaped my mind…

Ms. Extreme: But I’ve come to my decision.

(Suspense builds as Ms. Extreme looks straight into the hard cam.)

Ms. Extreme: And I want Myles.

Crowd: !!!

(The arena explodes with a large reaction pouring from the fans.)

Stew-O: WELL, THERE WE GO! MS. EXTREME IS COMING STRAIGHT FOR THE EAW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION! SHE WANTS HER SHOT AT MYLES AT OPERATION: DOOMSDAY!

Jake Mercer: OH YEAH THIS IS BIG! THE WARLORD AND THE PROBLEM CHILD GOING AT IT! I CAN ALREADY IMAGINE HOW CRAZY THAT MATCHUP IS GOING TO BE!

(The fans cheer, loving what they’re hearing. However, they grow even louder as ‘Enemy Strike’ by Yuki Hayashi hits. Myles steps out onto the stage, nodding his head and clapping. He then looks straight at Ms. Extreme and smirks. Holding onto his title, he raises it up.)

Myles: (off-mic) Very well, Camille. Be carefu what you wish for.

(In the ring, Ms. Extreme has a smirk of her own. She points straight at Myles and then, to the title.)

Ms. Extreme: I’m coming for that. It’s mine. Sorry, but I’m going to be the one to end your title reign.

(Myles raises a brow. Not of doubt, but intrigue. The Warlord shrugs, then grins.)

Myles: (off-mic) We shall see, won’t we?

(Myles. Ms. Extreme. It was official. The two icons stared each other down, and the camera zooms out, capturing the fans going wild. Dynasty then fades to black.)

(EAW logo buzzes.)
