Dynasty 8/20/21

(EAW intro plays.) 

(As always, a recap of last week’s episode of Friday Night Dynasty is shown: The show starts with The Visual Prophet and Dr. Angelo D’Angelo made their way out to the ring and demanded justice for Viz after what happened at Operation: Doomsday. StarrStan then comes out to calm down the situation, but only ends up getting threatened by Viz. Starr then comes to a conclusion that Viz can become the Team Captain for Friday Night Dynasty in WarGames come Territorial Invasion, and regardless of victory or not if he puts in an excellent effort as seen before, he will be guaranteed a World Heavyweight Championship shot. Dynasty got a visit by Voltage’s Kirk Redwood who faced Solomon Stane 1-on-1. In a bout that showed the willingness of both men to lay it on the line, it was Kirk that managed to come out with his hand raised in victory. Lisa Wren and Kensi are interviewed by Michael Belfort amidst their Unified Tag Team Championship loss. Both of them say they don’t know what’s going to happen next, but regardless they’re going to put their 110% into everything they do and hope something good comes out of it. Jonny Airhart is back in in-ring action, coming off of a devastating Interwire Championship loss, where he gets a quick and easy victory over Envy Ellis. Ximena Velasquez is then seen where she talks about her Unique Opportunity victory, then sends a warning to whoever will be Universal Women’s Champion between Ms. Extreme and Hikari Kanno post-Bloodsport. Rebecca Blackwell takes a visit to Friday Night Dynasty, where she goes up against Domino Stone. In a battle to prove who wanted it more, in the end, it was Domino that got her hand raised in victory. Griff Warner also shows up on Dynasty where he goes up against Johnny Andrews, in the end, it was Johnny that managed to come out on top. Jack Ripley talks about his future, saying that he’s once again not going to let his past define it. Saying that Operation: Doomsday was one hard pill to swallow, but he’s going to continue to push on regardless. While he leaves, it’s StarrStan that comes out and gives him the opportunity to be the Team Captain for the Brand Warfare match coming along at Territorial Invasion. Jack, of course, accepts the offer. Andre Walker then comes out, talking about his dominant win at Operation: Doomsday, where he of course sends a warning to Bronson Daniels amidst their Interwire Championship matchup. SOSA Henderson and Xavier Williams fight in one-on-one action, both of them setting out to prove a point one way or another. In the end, it was SOSA that managed to persevere and come out on top, kipping up from a World Heavyweight Championship loss at Operation: Doomsday. An odd tag team match is then underway which sees Xander Payne and Andrea Valentine go up against the team of Bronson Daniels and Andre Walker. After a thrilling main event, in the end, it was Andrea that managed to capitalize on a weak Bronson, getting the victory for her team. Afterward, Xander sends a warning to Andrea, saying that she doesn’t know what she’s getting herself into before the two Territorial Invasion opponents stare a hole into one another while the recap ends.)

(Right after the recap ends, Dynasty goes to the arena where ‘Recreant’ by Chelsea Grin blasts through the speakers of the arena to the thunderous boos of the arena in response to Ximena Velasquez making her way out from the backstage area to the center of the ring. She has her arms crossed, with her attention focused dead on the ring with a straight expression on her face. After a while, letting the negative reaction of the crowd bask in just a little bit longer, she then makes her way down the ramp and to the stage.)

Stephie Love: Introducing at this time, XIMENA VELASQUEZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stew-O: Well welcome to Friday Night Dynasty and it seems that we’re going right on ahead with the festivities here tonight! I’m sure Ximena Velasquez has been having fun these past few weeks considering everything that has presented itself for her. We don’t need to explain what she’s done, we already know of the Unique Opportunity that she won and how it presented itself to be a Universal Women’s Championship opportunity. She made a statement to the Champion that came out on top last week at Bloodsport, Ms. Extreme. Confronting her immediately after her match on the stage AND backstage as well, it’s clear Ximena is gunning for the gold and is going to make sure her presence is known one way or another. 

Flannery McCoy: She hasn’t been shy in saying that Ms. Extreme has been undermining her abilities in the ring and her sheer presence. But if anything ‘La Diosa’ knows exactly what she’s worth. Her dominance since her debut in Elite Answers Wrestling hasn’t gone unnoticed and her getting a World Championship shot in the process further solidifies that. I’m sure she’s out here to address everything at the moment and drive her foot in the ground heading into Territorial Invasion.

Jake Mercer: XIMENA VELASQUEZ! What a dominant figure! You know, I was taught ✨ Español ✨ from the Spanish Gods and there’s a way to describe certain figures like Ximena that they said that I encapsulated as well! “Soy un idiota y me gustan los hombres!”

(Ximena makes her way up the steps while she steps into the ring. The crowd continues to boo while she makes her way over and snatches a microphone from the Timekeeper’s Area. She then begins to make her way to the center of the ring, taking a moment to scan the crowd with her hands on her hips. ‘Recreant’ then begins to fade out from there while Ximena begins to speak.)

Ximena Velasquez: There’s no better satisfaction than shutting a World Champion up on her own brand. I’d like to ask one thing, Ms. Extreme! You mad? Because by the looks of it, that does seem to be the case. But what else could I have expected from a small, inferior puta like yourself? Someone who dares sweep the presence of ‘La Diosa’ under the rug like she’s nothing, who the hell do you think you are? Because you sure as hell are not in the position to undermine my abilities and my presence in the ring. If anything, you should be proud that someone like me, a warrior in my own right, gave a cabrón like you the time of day. Because you don’t even deserve that! You made the mistake of believing that I, of all people, won’t be the one to take the Universal Women’s Championship away from you and that will furthermore be your undoing. I have torn through everyone that has stood in my way since the very moment I stepped through those doors, yet all of that is a taste of what I’m going to do to you at Territorial Invasion. If you believe it? You believe it, regardless, it’s something that you’ll find out in person when I stomp your head in. When I make your prized, esteemed Elitist nothing more than bottom-of-the-barrel basura, the only thing I want out of the EAW Universe is a shower of praise. For saving your women’s division and giving it a taste of what it feels like to truly be a Champion. 

Ximena Velasquez: But let’s do this real quick. Let’s invite the disgrace that you have the unfortunate displeasure of calling a campeona out to the ring. Because I know the one thing she wants to do while she has salvation is bask in the presence of her maker. So Ms. Extreme, get your sorry ass out here and acknowledge my presence; it’s the only thing that you’ll be left to do in the end once I strip you of that one hint of legitimacy that you have left. The Universal Women’s Championship.

(Ximena brings her microphone down to her side before turning to the stage. She waits patiently for a moment, the only sound being heard is the crowd continuing to boo the challenger for the Universal Women’s Champion. It isn’t long before ‘Zombies’ by Bad Wolves hits to the deafening cheers from the crowd in response. Ximena has a look of amusement on her face upon seeing Ms. Extreme make her way out to the stage with the Universal Women’s Championship resting on her shoulder. She looks around with a smirk on her face, raising her Championship with pride while the pyro begins to shoot out from the stage. She’s still bearing the wounds from last week at Bloodsport, but nonetheless, she’s shaken all of that off. She then begins to make her way down the ramp and towards the ring with a smug look.)

Stew-O: Well here comes a woman who very much disagrees with what Ximena has to say right now. Of course, last week Ms. Extreme was confronted by her Territorial Invasion opponent on two occasions, where Ximena sent a warning that could send a shiver down the common person’s spine. But there’s nothing common about Ms. Extreme, she’s extraordinary. And I’m sure she’s here to say her piece regarding everything that Ximena has said tonight on Dynasty. 

Flannery McCoy: Away from the brand that she calls home, Ms. Extreme is still full of confidence and it’s apparent that in her eyes, Ximena is someone that she just doesn’t see dethroning her of her Championship. She hasn’t been afraid to tell the truth and I think that’s something that she’s not going to be short of tonight!

Jake Mercer: Oh shit, it just got lit up in this bitch! The adopted Ava is here and she’s here to unleash an Irish ass-kicking tonight! Sorry Black Shamrock, Ms. Extreme is off the market, she’s got a date with destiny tonight BAY BEE!

(Ms. Extreme stops at the bottom of the ramp, eyeing Ximena before taking a deep breath. She then begins to make her way up the steel steps and onto the apron, looking out to the crowd while they continue to go unhinged for the Voltage Elitist. It’s not long after that she makes her way into the ring, walking towards Ximena and pushing through her like she’s not there, before taking a microphone from the timekeeper’s area. ‘Zombies’ then begins to fade out while Ms. Extreme begins to make her way towards the center of the ring to face Ximena. She takes her Championship and raises it in the air while the crowd continues to show their support for her. After a bit, Ms. Extreme finally begins to speak into her microphone.)

Ms. Extreme: What an unfortunate scenario for someone like me 😔. Even though I’m the Universal Women’s Champion, top of my brand, and the best in the women’s division currently; I have to go up against Ximena Velasquez! A tall and dominant machine who hasn’t been pinned since her debut, against a “prissy, ill-looking, red-haired colonizer” like myself… Yeah, no. Let’s hop off our high horse and face reality real quick, even on your best day and my worst, there is absolutely zero chance that you can size up to me. There’s a reason that I’m the Champion in the first place, there’s a reason that you’re gunning for my crown and my position at the top; because I am THE Champion and everyone wants a piece of that. And people like you are always going to come scrambling along hoping that you’re the lucky one to take me out. 

Ms. Extreme: I’d understand why you’d believe that though, the shield of security that surrounds you knowing that you have that aura of impeccable dominance that has brought you to this point. But let’s tell the truth about ‘La Diosa’ right here, she has not had the chance to face credible competition since she arrived here in EAW. As much as you want to believe that you can so easily level with me, which is a tall task in itself. You need to realize that I, especially as a World Champion, am not like any of the other people that you’ve faced. This doesn’t need to be said, but I’m one of the best and I haven’t been afraid to prove that to whoever steps up to the plate and challenges for what I hold near and dear. Let me warn you now so when the time comes I said I did, you are in for one hell of a beating just like everyone else that thought they could take me down a peg. You need to get that in your head before it comes back around and bites you in the ass, pendeja.

(The crowd continues to cheer loudly for the Universal Women’s Champion while Ximena watches with her arms crossed. It’s apparent that she’s not amused with what Ms. Extreme has to say at the moment, only shaking her head in disapproval. She closes her eyes and rubs her temple before bringing her microphone up to her mouth and beginning to speak.)

Ximena Velasquez: If that’s the hill that you’re willing to die on, I’m not going to stop you. If you really believe that you’re as tough as you think you are, then how about I put out a challenge your way. Let’s truly put that ego to the test and let ‘La Diosa’ see for herself if you’re truly up to snuff with the standards that you put up for yourself. Next week, on Friday Night Dynasty, how about you face someone of my choosing?

(Love or hate Ximena, the crowd is enticed by that idea. Ms. Extreme’s eyes are full of interest while she slowly nods in response to what Ximena had to say towards her, for once, she is listening to what her challenger at Territorial Invasion has to say towards her.)

Ms. Extreme: Oh, believe me, I would absolutely love that. I would love to stand across the ring from whatever miserable piece of shit that you put in my way, though I have an idea or two who that may be, and completely decimate them. So yeah, let’s do that, shall we? Whatever sorry motherfucker you put in my way is your choice, but, now it’s my turn. You think that I would accept your little idea without having my fun as well? I’ll accept your little bargain, your desperate grab at legitimacy, contingent on me having the honor and privilege of choosing your opponent on Voltage next week as well.

(Ximena once again as her arms crossed, looking at Ms. Extreme with a straight look on her face. No words are needed to be said, Ximena simply responds with a nod while the crowd continues to cheer in anticipation.)

Ximena Velasquez: How unfair and ungenerous of me would it be to not give you the chance to return the favor? Of course, whatever sorry puto that you put in my way is just going to have to face exactly what I’ve been saying these past few months, and that’s when I make them my bitch. So by all means, feed a lamb to the slaughter. But when it comes to me? I’m not going to let you go so easily. Because you, my friend, are going to be facing Sierra next week. And don’t be so surprised when La Reina makes quick work of you like the disposable basura that I said you were. 

Ms. Extreme: I haven’t had any ill will towards the girl, but what a sad and disappointing fate that you’re going to be leading her to. Of course, I’m going to accept, but don’t be so surprised when the obvious result happens. As for me? Who are you going to be facing on Sunday Night Voltage when the time comes? I’ve decided to leave that to myself for the time being. You’re just going to have to wait and see for yourself. Till then? I’ll see you soon Ximena, let’s see if “lA DiOsA” is truly as good as she said she is.

(‘Zombies’ once again blasts through the speakers while Ms. Extreme takes her Universal Women’s Championship and raises it high in the air. She nudges the shoulder of Ximena while passing by, leaving the ring full of confidence before turning around with a smirk on her face. Ximena simply watches while Ms. Extreme makes her way up the ramp, a stern and serious look on her face while her hands are on her hips. Ms. Extreme then shakes her head while the two Territorial Invasion opponents stare a hole into one another, the last shot seen before Friday Night Dynasty fades out to elsewhere.)

(A commercial is shown advertising Ms. Extreme versus Ximena Velasquez for the Universal Women’s Championship at Territorial Invasion.)

(Dynasty fades back to the ringside area to show Stephie Love standing at the center of the ring with a smile on her face before she speaks into the microphone.)

Stephie Love: Ladies and gentlemen, the following singles match is scheduled for…

Crowd: ONE FALL!!!

(‘Can’t Let Go’ by Caught a Ghost blasts through the speakers of the arena to the loud boos from the crowd upon seeing Solomon Stane make his way out from the backstage area. He has an intimidating presence while he stands at the center of the ring, looking around with a stern look on his face before focusing on the ring. He lets out a loud battle cry which triggers pyro to come out behind him before he begins to make his way to the ring.)

Stephie Love: Introducing first… from Las Vegas, Nevada… weighing in at 300 pounds… THE CUTTHROAT… SOLOMON STANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stew-O: Well here comes Solomon who no doubt has been having a rough time as of late. Falling short to Kirk Redwood last week, Solomon found some help in the form of a gangster-like Mazzoni. It’s this newfound attitude that is believed to be the one to turn things around in his career, could that possibly be true?

Flannery McCoy: There’s only one way to find out is there? Solomon has always been someone that has bent the rules when he could, so I have no doubt that attitude is only going to be amplified when the time comes and the pressure is on. Poor Johnny Andrews tonight is going to be the first example of such, but who the hell knows what is going to happen? 

Jake Mercer: Bah gawd it’s the first caveman that has been transported to the present timeline. There are only one species with just as much body hair as Solomon Stane right there, and that’s cavemen. Yet you want me to believe that he stands a chance?! HAH! CAVEMEN COULDN’T EVEN START A FUCKING FIRE!

(‘Sing For The Moment’ by Eminem hits to deafening boos from the crowd this time while Johnny Andrews arrogantly struts out to the stage. He has a smirk on his face while he mocks the crowd that continues to show their disapproval for the Elitist. It’s not long before he poses at the center of the stage, raising his arm in the air while letting the negative reaction continue to soak in while he has the chance, before then making his way to the ring.)

Stephie Love: And his opponent… from Los Angeles, California… weighing in at 215 pounds… THE GURU OF GREATNESS… JOHNNY ANDREWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stew-O: And here comes Johnny Andrews who has managed to get back on track after suffering a loss at Territorial Invasion. We know how hard losses can be, but Johnny is someone that has always managed to pick himself up and get back on track. He got a victory against Griff Warner last week, could we be seeing a repeat?

Flannery McCoy: Johnny definitely has the skills to do just that and I have no doubt that he’s going to put in the work this week to make sure that it happens as well. He’s in for one hell of a challenge but it’s nothing that he hasn’t gone through either. I’m sure, just as always, we’re going to see Johnny Andrews shine in this matchup. 

Jake Mercer: I don’t care about that, THAT is a man that I need to know his hair care routine for. Look at that luscious, flowing hair! Only a few people have that, him, Jake Smith, and me! We need to trade business cards or something, I need to know his secrets!

(DING! DING! DING!)

Stew-O: Here we go, this highly anticipated match between two of Dynasty’s rising stars is officially underway! Johnny is precariously making his way out of the corner, seeing the massive size advantage that Solomon possesses right before his very eyes. Both of them are beginning to circle around the ring, not keeping their eyes off of one another while the crowd patiently waits in anticipation. BUT IT’S JOHNNY THAT ATTEMPTS TO CATCH SOLOMON BY SURPRISE, RUNNING FORWARD AND ATTEMPTING TO CONNECT WITH A QUICK DROPKICK TOWARDS HIS CHEST!

Flannery McCoy: Solomon is sent backward towards the ropes, while Johnny wastes zero time approaching him and begins to unload on him with punches towards his face! Solomon is trying to block as many shots as he can with his forearms, not expecting such a sudden and abrupt attack by the significantly smaller Johnny Andrews right now! Solomon just needed to suck it up, as it appears the referee is beginning to make his way over to split the two of them up before this gets out of hand. Johnny backing up for a moment, BEFORE TAKING A HUGE BARGAIN RUNNING FORWARD AND ATTEMPTING TO SEND HIM OVER THE TOP ROPE WITH A BIG CLOTHESLINE! CAN HE CONNECT!

Jake Mercer: SOLOMON IS MAKING SURE THAT DOESN’T HAPPEN, GRABBING HIM AND LIFTING HIM OVER THE TOP INSTEAD AND SENDING HIM ONTO THE APRON! Johnny quickly turning him around while clutching onto the ropes for dear life, before sending a forearm shot towards his face! Solomon steps backward, RUNNING FORWARD AND ATTEMPTING TO SEND JOHNNY FLYING OFF THE APRON! BUT IT’S JOHNNY WITH A ROPE-ASSISTED ENZUIGIRI TOWARDS HIS FACE TO COUNTER! Solomon stumbles backward and is forced to drop down to a knee at the center of the ring, while Johnny runs across the apron and begins to make his way up to the top rope while Solomon attempts to get up to his feet. LEAPING OFF THE TOP ROPE AND GOING FOR A BIG CROSSBODY TO ONCE AGAIN TAKE HIM DOWN TO THE MAT!

Stew-O: BUT SOLOMON MANAGES TO CATCH HIM AND DROP HIM DOWN INTO A BRUTAL POWERSLAM! Solomon quickly hooking the leg and going for an early pin attempt! Is he able to keep Johnny down right here?! 

OOONNNEEE!!!

Flannery McCoy: But Johnny manages to get the shoulder up before the two count! Solomon sits up before grabbing Johnny by his head and bringing him up to his feet. Solomon brings him up onto his shoulders into a Fireman’s Carry position, and whatever he has planned does not bode well for Johnny right here. Johnny attempts to fight back with elbow shots towards the side of his head to take him off guard! Trying to find a way to escape out of this, BUT SOLOMON MUSCLES THROUGH AND DROPS JOHNNY DOWN TO THE GROUND WITH A BRUTAL SAMOAN DROP! 

Jake Mercer: Johnny grabbing his back in pain, rolling around, and slamming the canvas in pain. This is the offense that Solomon needs, if he can keep this up then we might as well have a winner right here and now. Solomon makes his way towards Johnny and once again drags him up to his feet against his will, now grabbing him by his arm and sending him towards the corner with an Irish whip! Johnny is backed up against the corner, WHILE SOLOMON RUNS FORWARD GOING FOR A SPLASH TO CRUSH JOHNNY WHERE HE STANDS! 

Stew-O: BUT IT’S JOHNNY THAT MANAGES TO USE THE ROPES TO SEND A KICK TOWARDS THE HEAD OF SOLOMON! Solomon is sent back once again pretty stunned while Johnny begins to make his way up to the top rope, SETTING HIMSELF UP BEFORE LAUNCHING OFF THE TOP ROPE AND TAKING HIM DOWN TO THE GROUND WITH A BEAUTIFUL TOP ROPE BLOCKBUSTER!

Flannery McCoy: Great execution by Johnny, a hard landing for Solomon. Solomon is grabbing his neck while Johnny turns around and runs to the ropes while Solomon is down, RUNNING FORWARD AND CRUSHING HIM WITH A STANDING SHOOTING STAR PRESS TO FOLLOW UP! Johnny knows that he’s back on track and needs to make sure that Solomon is down and out for the time being so he can collect himself and keep the ball rolling for himself. Johnny mounting on top of him and already beginning to unload with multiple punches towards his skull! Solomon is trying to block all of them to the best of his abilities, but Johnny is absolutely relentless in making sure that the match is undoubtedly in his favor! 

Jake Mercer: And it’s been working believe it or not. Johnny finally letting up and getting off of Solomon and getting back up to his feet. Solomon is in a world of hurt but is still pushing through all of the pain and getting back up to his feet. Johnny is patiently waiting for Solomon to get up to his feet, BEFORE TURNING HIM AROUND AND LOOKING TO CONNECT WITH A SUPERKICK AGAINST HIS JAW TO TAKE HIM DOWN TO THE GROUND!

Stew-O: But just in time it’s Solomon that grabs the leg before it’s able to connect! Johnny’s eyes widened as he hobbles around on one leg trying to get Solomon to let go of his other leg. BUT SOLOMON GRABS HIM AND LIFTS HIM IN THE AIR FOR SIT DOWN AND SHUT UP! THE SITOUT CHOKESLAM DRIVING JOHNNY DOWN TO THE MAT!

Flannery McCoy: BUT IT’S JOHNNY THAT MANAGES TO USE THE MOMENTUM TO ROLL UP SOLOMON INTO A VICTORY ROLL PIN ATTEMPT!

OOONNNEEE!!!

TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!

TTTTTTHHHHHRRRRRRRRREEE-

Jake Mercer: REALLY CLOSE ATTEMPT BY JOHNNY BUT IT’S SOLOMON THAT MANAGES TO GET THE SHOULDER UP! Both of them are back up to their feet, Solomon realizing the danger that he’s in after Johnny’s counter. BUT JOHNNY RUNS FORWARD AND CONNECTS WITH THE GREATNESS OF A GURU TO FOLLOW UP WITH HIS PIN ATTEMPT! THE CARTWHEEL PELE KICK QUICKLY TAKES SOLOMON DOWN TO THE GROUND WHILE JOHNNY ONCE AGAIN DROPS DOWN TO THE GROUND AND PINS SOLOMON DOWN TO THE MAT FOR THE THREE!

OOONNNEEE!!!

TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!

TTTTTHHHHHRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEE-

Stew-O: BUT SOLOMON SIMPLY REFUSES TO GIVE MANAGING TO GET THE SHOULDER UP ONCE AGAIN! You can see the look of frustration on Johnny’s face at the moment, but he’s still managing to push through and keep going in this matchup so far. Johnny is back up to his feet and beginning to make his way towards the corner, once again climbing up to the top rope and crushing Solomon with another attempt at an aerial assault. Johnny standing at the top rope with a smirk on his face, BEFORE LEAPING OFF AND GOING FOR A MOONSAULT!

Flannery McCoy: BUT BEFORE HE CAN DO THAT IT’S SOLOMON THAT RUNS FORWARD AND SHOVES HIM OFF THE TOP ROPE SENDING HIM TUMBLING DOWN TO THE RINGSIDE AREA! Johnny takes a rough landing on the outside, but he still shows signs of life clutching onto the barricade and helping himself back up to his feet. He’s trying to shake off all the pain while he can, but it looks like Solomon is rolling out of the ring and making his way towards Johnny to dish out even more punishment. Solomon grabs Johnny, BEFORE THROWING HIM BRUTALLY INTO THE BARRICADE! Johnny going limo against the barricade, once again trying to get himself back up to his feet while planting himself onto a knee, BUT THIS TIME SOLOMON RUNS TOWARDS HIM AGAIN AND SENDS A KNEE TO HIS FACE SLAMMING HIS HEAD AGAINST THE BARRICADE!

OONNEE!!

TTWWOO!!

Jake Mercer: And now the count has begun while Solomon grabs Johnny by the head once again and brings him up, BEFORE RUNNING FORWARD AND THIS TIME THROWING HIM FACE FIRST INTO THE RING POST! Now that one must’ve been brutal for Johnny, look at the blood slowly beginning to pour down from a cut on his forehead!

TTHHRRRREEEE!!

FFOOUURR!!

Stew-O: Johnny trying to recover to the best of his abilities, desperately trying to rub the blood away from his face to prevent from obscuring his vision. BUT SOLOMON GRABS HIM FROM BEHIND AND SLAMS HIM BACK FIRST INTO OUR ANNOUNCERS TABLE! That was a hard landing for Johnny especially against the cover of our table, you can see him crumbling down to the floor, this is not a good scenario for him especially with someone like Solomon on offense. Solomon grabbing Johnny once again, BEFORE LIFTING HIM UP LOOKING TO DROP HIM THIS TIME INTO A BACK SUPLEX ON THE APRON!

FFIIVVEE!!

SSIIXX!!

Flannery McCoy: BUT JOHNNY MANAGES TO LAND ON THE APRON JUST IN TIME AND LAUNCH OFF TAKING SOLOMON DOWN TO THE GROUND WITH A BIG MOONSAULT! Johnny barely saving himself but you can see the fatigue on his face, he’s struggling to get up at the moment. Johnny stumbling backward and using the announcer’s desk as a crutch while Solomon helps himself up to his feet feeling the effects as well. BUT JOHNNY STEPS FORWARD AND CONNECTS WITH A SUPERKICK AGAINST HIS JAW TO SEND HIM BACK DOWN!

SSEEVVEENN!!

EEIIGGHHTT!!

Jake Mercer: Johnny knowing that his time is beginning to run out, grabbing Solomon and trying to slowly get him back up to his feet. Johnny grabbing him and setting him up for something big, there are many ways that this can go down. JOHNNY SPRINGING OFF THE APRON AND DRIVING SOLOMON’S HEAD DOWN ON THE RING MAT WITH A BRUTAL TORNADO DDT! Johnny attempts to muster up the strength to get back up to his feet, grabbing Solomon by the head and barely rolling him into the ring. JOHNNY FINDS THE STRENGTH TO HOOK THE LEG AND GO FOR A PIN ATTEMPT!

OOONNNEEE!!!

TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!

TTTTTHHHHHRRR-

Stew-O: BUT JOHNNY WAS TOO LATE, SOLOMON GETS THE SHOULDER UP! Johnny stumbling towards the corner, looking towards Solomon and using this as an opportunity to follow up and once again take Solomon down to the ground for a possible pin attempt. WAITING FOR SOLOMON TO GET UP BEFORE GOING FOR WELCOME TO ELITE ANDREWS WRESTLING! MOONLIGHT DRIVE TO SOLOMON TAKING HIM DOWN TO THE MAT!

Flannery McCoy: BUT SOLOMON TURNS IT INTO A BACK BODY DROP TAKING JOHNNY DOWN TO THE GROUND WITH A SICKENING THUD! Solomon manages to save his chances in this match just for a moment, but you can tell that he’s tired. If there was a time to finish the match for Solomon, it’s immediately. Solomon picking Johnny up off the ground and setting him up BEFORE LAUNCHING HIM INTO A BIG EXPLODER SUPLEX!

Jake Mercer: Johnny tumbles down to the ground but clutches onto the corner turnbuckle padding to help himself up to his feet, SOLOMON RUNNING FORWARD AND GOING FOR A SPLASH TOWARDS HIM! But Johnny manages to move out of the way just in time! Johnny stumbling forward trying to escape out of the situation that he finds himself in, BEFORE SOLOMON RUNS FORWARD AND LOOKS TO MAUL HIM ONCE AGAIN WITH A SWIFT SHOULDER TACKLE!

Stew-O: BUT JOHNNY SIDESTEPS AND MOVES OUT OF THE WAY FORCING SOLOMON TO COLLIDE WITH THE REFEREE DROPPING HIM DOWN TO THE MAT! The referee is down while Johnny tries to help himself up to his feet, BEFORE TAKING SOLOMON DOWN TO THE MAT WITH A QUICK CALF KICK! Johnny managing to get his groove back into this match-

Flannery McCoy: LOOK! IT’S TWO BODYGUARDS! SOLOMON ENLISTED THE HELP OF MAZZONI AND DELIVERED WHILE THE TWO OF THEM COMPLETELY BOMBARD JOHNNY ANDREWS AND BEGIN TO STOMP DOWN ON HIM REPEATEDLY! SOLOMON KNOWS THAT IF HE LOSES HE’LL BE LOSING MONEY AND MAZZONI IS GIVING A HELPING HAND TO MAKE SURE THAT THIS DOESN’T HAPPEN! THE TWO BODYGUARDS GRAB JOHNNY AND LIFT HIM UP BEFORE SLAMMING HIM BACK DOWN TO THE CANVAS WITH A BRUTAL DOUBLE CHOKESLAM!

Jake Mercer: Johnny is driven down to the mat while both bodyguards quickly retreat out of the ring before anything can happen! Solomon sees the opportunity, patiently waiting for Johnny to get back up to his feet so he can capitalize. The referee is beginning to recover as well, he didn’t see any of the brutal assault courtesy of the two beefy bodyguards and that might just be the deciding factor in this match!

Stew-O: SOLOMON LIFTS JOHNNY UP AND SLAMS HIM DOWN TO THE MAT WITH KEY OF SOLOMON! THE SITOUT FORWARD FIREMAN’S CARRY SLAM CONNECTS ONCE AGAIN TAKING JOHNNY DOWN TO THE GROUND! THIS IS THE CHANCE THAT SOLOMON NEEDS, QUICKLY HOOKING THE LEG AND PINNING SOLOMON’S SHOULDERS DOWN TO THE MAT! PIN ATTEMPT!

OOONNNEEE!!!

TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!

TTTTTTHHHHHHHRRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!




Flannery McCoy: HOW DID JOHNNY MANAGE TO GET HIS FOOT ON THE ROPES! THE REFEREE SEES IT JUST IN TIME STOPPING THE PIN ATTEMPT! THIS MATCH CONTINUES!

Jake Mercer: The frustration mingled with complete shock on the face of Solomon Stane tells it all about how he thinks about this. How has Johnny Andrews managed to hold on so long?! Solomon slamming the canvas and getting back up to his feet, grabbing the head of Johnny and bringing him back up to his feet. HE’S LIFTING HIM UP AND GOING FOR ANOTHER KEY OF SOLOMON ATTEMPT!

Stew-O: But this time it’s Johnny that manages to send a barrage of back elbows towards his face forcing Solomon to loosen the grip on him before the finishing maneuver can connect! I don’t know how Johnny has managed to survive in this match, but it’s turning out well for him since it seems like Solomon is having a hard time trying to keep Johnny on his shoulders! Johnny continues to attack trying to find a way to get Solomon to let go of him, and he does! Solomon stumbling back trying to keep his ground, BUT BEFORE HE CAN DO ANYTHING HE’S MET WITH A ENZUIGIRI TO THE SIDE OF HIS HEAD BY JOHNNY TO TAKE HIM DOWN!

Flannery McCoy: Solomon is sent back against the ropes, trying to rebound off of them and use the momentum to make his way towards Johnny. BUT JOHNNY ONCE AGAIN CONNECTS WITH AN ENZUIGIRI TOWARDS HIS HEAD! Solomon drops down to a knee while Johnny looks to set him up right here! BUT JOHNNY GOING FOR ANOTHER ATTEMPT AT THE GREATNESS OF THE GURU! CARTWHEEL PELE KICK!

Johnny bounces off the canvas but desperately tries to get up to his feet, seeing the danger that he finds himself in at the moment, but it looks like he fell into Solomon’s trap! SOLOMON GOING FOR CHILL-OUT! SPINNING SPINEBUSTER INCOMING

Stew-O: BUT JOHNNY MANAGES TO FLIP OVER SOLOMON AND ROLL HIM UP INTO A SCHOOLBOY PIN ATTEMPT! COULD JOHNNY GET A QUICK VICTORY?!

OOONNNEEE!!!

OOONNNEEE!!!

TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!!

TTTTTTTHHHHHHRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!




(DING! DING! DING!)

(‘Sing For The Moment’ once again hits to the boos from the crowd while Johnny Andrews pops up to a knee. He looks around, nodding with the biggest smirk ever on his face before getting back up to his feet. He falls back and leans against the ropes for a moment, taking the time to catch his breath, before making his way towards the center of the ring and arrogantly spreading his arms out. The referee then begins to make their way towards him, raising his arm in victory before Johnny climbs up to the top and raises an arm in the air with a smile.)

Stephie Love: Here is your winner… JOHNNY ANDREWS!!!!!!!!!!

Stew-O: What a match that we were able to witness right here! Both men, hungry for a victory, laid it all on the line to make sure that one way or another that goal ended up accomplished. It was clear that especially after Operation: Doomsday there was zero room for error on the road to Territorial Invasion for these men. In the end, though, it was Johnny Andrews that showed he had the bigger heart this week, coming out victorious when it was all said and done.

Flannery McCoy: It was apparent that Solomon pulled out all the stops in this matchup. Even bringing out bodyguards that one way or another could secure a victory for him. But at the end that wasn’t enough, Johnny managed to fight through the odds and come out on top. Another victory added to the notch of Johnny Andrews!

(Solomon rolls out of the ring, being helped by the two bodyguards that came and interfered in this matchup. He slammed the apron repeatedly in frustration while Johnny makes his way towards him and begins to laugh while Solomon is helped up the ramp. The last shot seen is Johnny posing for the last time while Dynasty then begins to fade out to elsewhere.)

(A commercial is shown for the official Elite Answers Wrestling UNO deck starring none other than the UNO Champion himself, Jonny Airhart.)

(Dynasty comes back from commercial break as the North Little Rock, Arkansas crowd is rocking and hype just as “Runnin’” by 21 Savage begins to blast. The fans in attendance rise to their feet as out walks The Interwire Champion Bronson Daniels with his manager Treyvon Harris by his side. Treyvon is handed the belt by Bronson as Harris raises it high above his head while Bronson leads him down the ramp towards the ring.)

Stephie Love: Introducing at this time… BRONSON DANIELS!!!!!!!!!!

Stew-O: THE INTERWIRE CHAMPION IS HERE AND HE LOOKS LIKE HE’S GOT SOMETHING ON HIS MIND!

Jake Mercer: I know he has dread on his mind but I wonder if the incoming Andre Walker collision has any dread weighing in his heart. This wouldn’t be the first time Bronson lost a title to Andre Walker!

Flannery McCoy: Presumptuous of you to assume anything while Bronson walks to the ring with a smile that’s going from ear to ear right now! He looks confident to me and I can’t blame him in being confident even with Andre Walker being his Territorial Invasion opponent for the second year in a row.

(We watch as Harris and Bronson enter the ring and both receive microphones. The music dies down as Harris keeps the Interwire title on his shoulder as he stands a few feet behind Bronson’s right shoulder.)

Bronson Daniels: At Operation: Doomsday, many people may have falsely assumed I had backed myself into a corner. I extended an open challenge to anyone who wanted to step up and challenge me for the Interwire Championship. The belt that I have high plans for, the belt I aim to elevate, and the championship I strive to make the most prestigious title in EAW…I gave an open challenge and Jonny Airhart decided to step up and take on this challenge. After weeks of mind games, after Jonny Airhart tried to mentally and physically destroy me, and even after Jonny Airhart picked the stipulations to our Operation: Doomsday match…I still managed to go Savage Mode on that man and leave with that Interwire Championship!

(The crowd cheers and goes wild.)

Bronson Daniels: Jonny fought valiantly, and proved many of the expectations correct, and even exceeded them. He showed especially in this match that he was willing to put it on the line and do anything to make sure that he came out victorious when it was all said and done. But his efforts, unfortunately, were not enough to walk out of this match with a victory. There is still so much left in store for him and there is no doubt that this is a testament to his abilities and what he’s capable of, but that night was simply just not his night. I proved that I wanted it more and proved exactly that by laying it all on the line despite the major disadvantage that I had. Afterward, I received an offer from Roc Nation’s own Treyvon Harris who aims to help take my career to even bigger heights. Life is good for me. I even had the privilege to witness three elitists fight on the same card to see who would be my next challenger for this belt of mine. Turns out, it’s the guy who beat me a year ago for the New Breed Championship…Andre Walker.

(The fans begin booing as Bronson turns and smirks at Treyvon.)

Bronson Daniels: Yea. That guy. The guy who has been talking nonstop trash about me this entire week. The guy who has been bad mouthing me and treating me as if I’ve already been beaten for this very belt or something. I mean, I get the reasons why Andre would be so cocky and brash. He actually did take the New Breed title from me a year ago. That’s an achievement that he should be proud of. Andre ended up having one of the more memorable title reigns with the New Breed Championship as well. The guy really took the ball and ran with it. Andre Walker may have beaten me a year ago but…that’s NOT going to happen again. Make no mistake about it, because I don’t plan on making any mistakes this time. While Andre Walker surely looks at this match-up the same way he did a year ago, things have changed since last year. Well, besides Andre’s new teeth and Jason Mamoa cosplay look. I myself have changed within and this season isn’t going to be a rerun of the last one. I myself have grown. I have evolved. I have become a much better version of the guy that Andre Walker beat at last season’s Territorial Invasion and this season’s version will see a different outcome for us both. I’m elated that we get to have the one on one that I desired because I’m sure Jack Ripley and I could have torn the roof off the building had he won. Darcy and I would have been electric. But it just makes sense that I’d have to defend my belt against you, Dre. Things are going to be different and-

(“Rockstar” by N.E.R.D. Blasts as the fans insanely begin booing. Out walks Andre Walker with Albert Hitchman in tow. Both men look annoyed at Bronson and Treyvon as they step slowly down the ring ramp.)

Stew-O: Here comes the challenger to that very Interwire Championship! The Notorious Kaiser is looking not too keen on how Bronson is talking right now!

Flannery McCoy: Andre found a way to enter a match with Darcy May Morgan and Jack Ripley and exit with this opportunity in front of him and he has made it clear he wants to take a second championship away from Bronson as he did a year ago!

(Andre and Albert enter the ring and grab mics as Bronson and Treyvon shake their heads.)

Treyvon Harris: Hold on now, y’all boys know the champ here has this time reserved to address the crowd and promote-

Albert Hitchman: You. Yea. Shut your mouth. Nobody here came to hear that fraud talk and you might as well get used to referring to Bronson Daniels as the FORMER champ because that’s all he will be known as after Andre smashes him into the earth in just a few weeks. 

Treyvon Harris: You sound crazy, fat boy! My guy here isn’t backing down from nobody! Not Johnny Airhart, Jack Fipley, Darcy May Morgan, and especially not Andre Walker! Ain’t nobody afraid of your giant tan Aquaman stunt double boyfriend! 

(The crowd pops as Albert looks disgusted and Andre himself rolls his eyes.)

Crowd: AQUAMAN!!! AQUAMAN!!! AQUAMAN!!! AQUAMAN!!! 

Bronson Daniels: Man, we got an Aquaman chant going!

Andre Walker: Enough of this bullshit.

(The crowd instantly stops chanting and begins booing heavily for Andre.)

Andre Walker: I hear you talking. I hear the scheming. I hear the excuses. I hear the confidence. I hear the reasonings spout behind all of this. I see you looking prideful. I saw what you did to Jonny Whogivesafuck-Hart. I’ve watched you seemingly get better. I’ve witnessed you do some pretty impressive things that have made these people fond of you. Things that would make them believe that you yourself believe that this will be different. I’ve paid close attention to you gathering confidence, building composure, and growing as an athlete in this sport we both compete in. I’ve heard the commentators wax poetic about your potential and how at Operation: Doomsday you have moved closer and closer to being considered one of the best talents in Elite Answers Wrestling. But there are levels to this game, Bronny. You can be excited, hyper-focused, in the best shape of your life, and have that recent win where you overcame the stacked odds under your record. Thing is…I’M STILL VERY MUCH SO…better than you.

(The crowd begins booing even harder as Andre gets in Bronson’s face.)

Andre Walker: I don’t care what state you’re in. You can be in a state of bliss, a New York State of Mind, it doesn’t matter. The only state you will be in when you get in this ring with me and put that Interwire title on the line is a state of emergency. You can be as prepared as you ever have been and you will still get worked like a low-wage job, Bronson. I am one of the best, I am a World Championship contender, at Operation: Doomsday I defeated two former World Champions while you were struggling with Jonny fucking Airhart. 

Bronson Daniels: You talk about being a World Championship contender yet you ain’t won a single World Championship yet! All this World Champion nonsense and you still have to coast off that New Breed title run while I’ve clearly elevated past you and currently hold gold while you are stuck holding Albert Hitchman’s nuts talking about what you could be and would be.

Andre Walker: No could or would about it. I WILL be a World Champion. It’s obvious. It’s clearly going to happen. Even the biggest Andre Walker hater can see this the same way they can see the sun shining in the sky or see your brittle, concave chest. 

Bronson Daniels: You used to look similar body-wise to me. You did a couple of push ups, got Dr. Miami on speed dial, and now you talking crazy.

Andre Walker: I’m not talking crazy. I’m trying to talk some sense into you. You are naive to expect me to not break your face and take that belt off you as I did a year ago. You can’t be that damn dumb to really think any steps you took to get better are further ahead of who I am right now.

Bronson Daniels: You talking about breaking faces a year ago…why don’t you try breaking my face and taking my belt right now!!!

(We see Treyvon and Albert quickly realize things are getting out of hand as they both rush to get in front of their clients.)

Stew-O: WE MIGHT GET OURSELVES A BRAWL RIGHT HERE AND NOW! ANDRE AND BRONSON BEING HELD BACK BY THEIR MANAGERS AS-

(“Voodoo Chile” by Jimi Hendrix blasts as the entire building pops. Out indeed walks The Visual Prophet, wearing a “VPLA” sweatsuit as he raises one finger in the air and waves it at Bronson and Andre.)

The Visual Prophet: Woah, woah, woah there children! You fellas getting all rambunctious and amped up. It’s a lot of Red Bull and Monster energy permeating from that damn ring. Ima need y’all two pupils to pull it back together and relax for at least a moment. I get it. It’s beef between you two guys. Bronson still upset over Andre taking his belt and Andre clearly jealous cause Bronson went in to get himself a higher ranked title while Andre left empty-handed. I feel you both. It’s so sad. So very sad. Instead of just hashing this out over a game of EAW 2k, y’all rather punch and kick each other in the ring while these lovely V-Hive fans cheer y’all on, huh? Bronny Bron and Dre Dre rather claw and scratch right now and spoil your future title match. Is that right? Well, I got some news for you both. You two can relax cause I will not allow you two men to spoil such a highly anticipated rematch. Well, that’s because…I’M GOING TO SPOIL IT FOR YOU! If you two PLANNED or THOUGHT you would face off at Territorial Invasion for the Interwire Championship…YOU DEAD WRONG! YOU WILL NOT FIGHT AT TI FOR THAT INTERWIRE CHAMPIONSHIP!

(The crowd is shocked as are Bronson, Andre, Treyvon, and Albert Hitchman.)

The Visual Prophet: 🎶 OOOOOOOH…HE GIVES US WHAT WE NEEEEEED!!!! …IT MAY NOT BE WHAT WE WAAAAAAAAAANT!!! 🎶 Nope. Not going to happen. No match. No match that night between you two for that big gold belt that my beloved brother Treyvon Harris has. Speaking of Treyvon Harris…

(Viz squints as he stares dead at Treyvon Harris.)

The Visual Prophet: :oh: You look familiar!

Treyvon Harris: :mjwhat:

The Visual Prophet: :viz: Nevermind. Yeah.

Albert Hitchman: You don’t have the authority to do that! Who do you think you-

The Visual Prophet: You shut your face, fat boy! I’ll slice a piece of bacon off your bacon and make a BLT!

Andre Walker: You watch your mouth you oversized, go to prison on purpose, kufi-wearing crook. Who the hell are you to try and cancel a match I earned? A match I’m guaranteed to win.

Bronson Daniels: Guaranteed? You sound dumber than Hitchman over there. 

The Visual Prophet: Wait. Hol’ up. He makes a good point. Great question, Dre Dre. Who. Am. I. What authority do I have to tell you that you won’t be facing Bronson Daniels for a title shot you already earned. Maybe…maybe because I can see the future, guys!

Andre Walker: :francis: What?

Bronson Daniels: :mjwhat: Come again?

Albert Hitchman: :merchant: Excuse me?

Treyvon Harris: :respek: You shittin me.

The Visual Prophet: :troll: Nah in trolling! Or am I! But the truth is…I am Dynasty’s Team Captain for this year’s War Games match, guys. Your title match isn’t happening because the founder of The Visual Prophet Leadership Academy, the beloved brother of The beloved brother Dr. Angelo D’Angelo, and the proud black man that I have proven to be…I’ve been entrusted to build a team capable enough to defeat Team Voltage and defeat Team Showdown. This is why I choose to interrupt you guys and tell you…my young friend. My soon-to-be apprentice. My teacher’s aid for this lead up to Territorial Invasion that you will be joining Team Dynasty at Territorial Invasion!

Treyvon Harris: That’s HUGE! Bronson Daniels as Interwire Champ AND participating in the historic War Games match as a member of Team Dynasty?! What I tell you, Bronson! You about to be the biggest thing since sliced bread!

Bronson Daniels: Ah man, how great would it have been to shut Andre Walker’s mouth finally but it looks like I’ll be rocking with Viz as we put Voltage and Showdown in their place.

The Visual Prophet: Ah nah, my guy. Love you to death. We would look great together in that match but I wasn’t out here to invite you to be on the team. Nah, sorry if I led you on. Yea. We adding Andre Walker to Team Dynasty for the War Games match!

Stew-O: AHDHDJEHUFHEHDHHW!!!!

Bronson Daniels: What?!

Flannery McCoy: BBDBDHDHEISJAAAAAAH!!!

Treyvon Harris: But…WHY?!

Albert Hitchman: :mjlol:

The Visual Prophet: Look man, I’ll be Frank. Not gurryman but blunt and concise. Andre fits what this team needs. You still my black brother, REPARATIONS, JET MAGAZINE yadda yadda. But, you got that belt and Andre just might be hungrier for this. No slight against you Bronny!

Andre Walker: Nah. All slights. Take this as another reminder that I am simply BETTER than you. Another main eventer, another World Championship contender, looks at me as his peer. Not you. Never you. 

Bronson Daniels: Eat it up. Viz is making a mistake and deep down he knows it. If he doesn’t know, he will learn the hard way when you choke away the win for Team Dynasty!

The Visual Prophet: Oh he better not! I’ll give his ass detention if he dies!

Andre Walker: Eat a dick, champ.

Bronson Daniels: Bring an apple with you, teacher’s pet!

(Bronson and Andre stare each other down as The Visual Prophet’s theme music begins to play.)

Stew-O: Andre Walker vs Bronson Daniels for the Interwire championship has been postponed. Andre Walker joining Team Dynasty? That’s official! Viz might be building a formidable team based on his own abilities and Andre’s as well!

Flannery McCoy: Viz better be careful. Andre may know Viz is Team Captain but Walker and Hitchman may have interests in making Team Dynasty all about Team Walker!

Jake Mercer: THIS IS AWESOME! I HAVEN’T BEEN THIS EXCITED FOR A TAG TEAM SINCE MAYBE WHEN HEADMASHER RYKEEKEE AND THE OPTICAL PRIEST TEAMED TOGETHER IN AWE’S CIVIL WAR PLAY MATCH!!! IT’S LITTY 2 TITTY, BABY!!!!!

(The camera cuts to a commercial for the Top 10 wrestlers injured by Drake Smith episode of Dark Side of the Ring.)

(Dynasty fades back to ringside, and ‘Sacrifice’ by Bebe Rexha hits, causing the crowd to give off a mixed reaction as Kensi begins walking out to the stage. She looks around at the crowd, and stops at the top of the ramp, waiting for her partner as her theme is eventually replaced by ‘Flawless’ by Mega Drive. The mixed reaction continues as Lisa Wren walks out to join her tag team partner, and after the two share some words, the team begin making their way down towards the ring as the crowd gives off a mix of both cheers and boos, clearly split on their feelings of both Lisa Wren and Kensi.)

Stephie Love: Ladies and gentlemen…. The following contest is a tag team match scheduled for ONE FALL!!!!

Crowd: ONE FALL!!!!

Stephie Love: Introducing first…. The team of LIISSAA WWRREENNNNN AND KENSSIIIIIIII!!!!!

(Kensi and Lisa Wren make their way into the ring, and it’s there that Lisa decides that she’ll be starting the match, leaving Kensi to make her way out onto the apron.)

Stew-O: Lisa Wren and Kensi may have come up short at Operation: Doomsday, but their time as a tag team clearly isn’t done yet! They have the opportunity to bounce back, but they’re not facing just anybody.

Jake Mercer: That’s right. In fact, they’re facing two people who I KNOW they’ll have trouble with. I don’t know about you guys, but I don’t think Kensi and Lisa will get the victory tonight. Just look at the fear in their eyes!

Flannery McCoy: Fear? I don’t see any fear. They’ve both been in EAW for a while, I don’t think-

Jake Mercer: THEY’RE SCARED! Terrified! Don’t question me, I know what I’m talking about.

Flannery McCoy: Whatever. Anyways, these two definitely have the potential to be a great team, so if there’s an opportunity for them to once again show us what they could do, it’s tonight.

(‘Bow Down’ by I Prevail hits, and another mixed reaction is given, but the reaction is a bit louder as someone the EAW universe hasn’t seen in a while returns in Seth Osiris. Seth Osiris walks out to the stage, and he looks extremely focused on his upcoming match, as do his two opponents. Seth decides to wait near the top of the ramp, and ‘Written in my Hellfire’ hits. After this, all of the positive reactions in the arena disappear and are replaced by boos as a focused Black Shamrock begins walking out to the stage. He doesn’t waste any time at all, walking right to the end of the stage and walking down the ramp as Seth Osiris follows behind.)

Stephie Love: And their opponents…… The team of SETHHHHHH OOSSSIIIRRRRIIISSSSSS…. AND BLAAAAACK SHHAAAMMMRROOOOCCKK!!!!

Stew-O: And here’s the team of Seth Osiris and Black Shamrock! This should be an interesting one and we all know exactly why. Seth Osiris is making his return to EAW, meanwhile, Black Shamrock is making his debut! In other words, none of us really know what to expect tonight.

Jake Mercer: Except for me, obviously. Seth Osiris has been doing tons of training overseas, learning all kinds of brutal martial arts! There’s really nothing that could stop him at this point. I’ll never forget watching Seth take out 30 men all by himself :wow:.

Flannery McCoy: Mind expanding on that? Where and when did any of this happen?

Jake Mercer: You just had to be there.

Flannery McCoy: Riiiight. I don’t know what I’ll be getting from these two, but both of them seem like they’re extremely focused on this match, and if there’s any match you always want to win, it’s the match where you’re giving your first impression. Whether they have what it takes or not, we’ll just have to see!

(Seth Osiris stays inside of the ring as Black Shamrock exits out to the apron, and from there the referee calls for the bell.)

(Ding! Ding! Ding!)

Stew-O: Here we go! This tag team match is underway, and it looks like the returning Seth Osiris will be starting this match off against Lisa Wren! The two Elitists circle the ring to wait who’ll strike first, and I don’t blame Lisa for wanting to see how this will play out. Seth Osiris hasn’t been around for a while, and this is Black Shamrock’s first-ever match! The two continue to come closer and closer to one another- AND SETH OSIRIS JUST WENT FOR A ROUNDHOUSE KICK BUT LISA WREN MANAGED TO DUCK IT! LISA WREN NOW ATTEMPTING AN ENZUIGIRI, BUT SETH HAD IT SCOUTED! 

Jake Mercer: OF COURSE HE HAD IT SCOUTED! All that training he did overseas paid off :wow:!!! Seth Osiris now pulls Lisa Wren up from behind, AND HE GOES FOR A GERMAN SUPLEX BUT LISA WREN MANAGED TO DELIVER A BACK ELBOW TO THE JAW! Lisa Wren now grabs Seth in a headlock, but Seth quickly pushes Lisa into the ropes and forces her to bounce off of them, BUT SETH QUICKLY FOLLOWS BEHIND- AND HE KNEES LISA IN THE MIDSECTION AS SOON AS SHE BOUNCES OFF OF THE OPPOSITE PAIR OF ROPES! 

Flannery McCoy: That was a huge hit that dropped Lisa to her knees, and now Seth Osiris has her in a rear chinlock! Seth Osiris clearly hasn’t lost a step seeing how he’s performing right now, but he’s not just facing anyone tonight! Lisa Wren knows exactly what she’s doing as well, and right now she’s finding her way back up to her feet, AND SHE MANAGES TO PULL HERSELF OUT OF THE SUBMISSION BEFORE SWINGING AT SETH FOR A CLOTHESLINE! SETH OSIRIS DUCKED UNDER IT- BUT LISA WREN JUST QUICKLY SPUN AROUND AND DELIVERED A CORKSCREW DROPKICK!

Stew-O: That dropkick dropped Seth Osiris, but he’s quickly able to get back up! Seth charges in at Lisa, BUT LISA DUCKS DOWN AND SENDS SETH OVER THE TOP ROPE! Seth Osiris manages to land on the apron though, and I don’t think Lisa expected that! Lisa Wren goes after Seth Osiris, BUT SETH DELIVERS A FOREARM! That forearm hit Lisa hard- BUT LISA IS ABLE TO RETALIATE WITH AN ENZUIGIRI! That enzuigiri stunned Seth, and he’s barely holding onto the top rope, the only thing keeping him on the apron! LISA WREN NOW RUNS THE ROPES, AND SHE-

Jake Mercer: GETS HIT WITH A SHOULDER TO THE MIDSECTION! SETH OSIRIS NOW, WITH A SPRINGBOARD EUROPEAN UPPERCUT! That uppercut nearly took Lisa’s head off! Seth Osiris now going for the cover, and that has to be the end of the match! That was actually Seth’s finishing move when he was training overseas, and rumor has it he actually ended someone’s career with that move, accidentally uppercutting their entire jaw off! There’s no way this match doesn’t end!

ONE!

T-

Flannery McCoy: Aaand Lisa Wren kicks out. You were saying?

Jake Mercer: :wow: Lisa’s more powerful than I thought. 

Flannery McCoy: 🙄 Whatever you say. Seth Osiris just dragged Lisa back up to her feet before pulling her towards his team’s corner, and there’s the tag to the debuting Black Shamrock! Black Shamrock is in the ring, AND THERE’S A HUGE KICK TO LISA’S MIDSECTION! BLACK SHAMROCK SLAMS LISA’S HEAD INTO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE, AND HE DRIVES HIS SHOULDER INTO HER MIDSECTION REPEATEDLY! Black Shamrock now lifts Lisa Wren up for a suplex, BUT LISA SLIPS OUT OF IT AND LANDS ON HER FEET! BOTH ELITISTS QUICKLY TURN TOWARDS EACH OTHER, AND NOW LISA WREN CHARGES IN BEFORE GOING FOR A-

Stew-O: NO! BLACK SHAMROCK JUST POPPED LISA UP AND DELIVERED FASTBALL PUNCH! Lisa Wren just dropped to the mat, and that right there is the power that Black Shamrock possesses! Lisa Wren is pulling herself up in an empty corner, AND BLACK SHAMROCK CHARGES IN- BUT LISA WREN ROLLS OUT OF THE CORNER AND AVOIDS BLACK SHAMROCK’S ATTEMPT AT A RUNNING CORNER CLOTHESLINE! LISA WREN DIVES TOWARDS HER CORNER, AND SHE MAKES THE TAG TO KENSI! KENSI ENTERS THE RING, AND SHE QUICKLY CHARGES IN BEFORE DELIVERING A RUNNING FOREARM TO BLACK SHAMROCK IN THE CORNER! Kensi’s not done yet though!

Jake Mercer: Kensi now running the ropes as Black Shamrock stumbles out of the corner, AND BLACK SHAMROCK SWINGS FOR A CLOTHESLINE BUT IT DOESN’T CONNECT! KENSI BOUNCES OFF OF THE OPPOSITE PAIR OF ROPES, AND SHE HITS SHAMROCK WITH A DROPKICK! Black Shamrock is a big man so that didn’t take him off his feet, but it did cause him to stumble towards the ropes! Kensi is back up and she runs towards Black Shamrock, AND I THINK BLACK SHAMROCK EXPECTED HER TO RUN RIGHT UP TO HIS FACE SO HE WENT FOR A BACK ELBOW, BUT KENSI HAD SOMETHING ELSE IN MIND! SHE JUST SLID OUT OF THE RING, AND SHE PULLED SHAMROCK’S LEGS OUT FROM UNDER HIM, DROPPING HIM ON HIS FACE! 

Flannery McCoy: Kensi quickly slides back into the ring, and she locks in a crossface in Black Shamrock! Kensi and Lisa Wren have been doing a good job working against a team consisting of someone that’s been away for a long time and a man that’s having his first-ever match in EAW! Black Shamrock may have underestimated his competition this week despite him just starting out here, and clearly, that’s put him in a lot of trouble! 

Stew-O: WAIT! BLACK SHAMROCK IS SLIPPING OUT OF THE CROSSFACE! SHAMROCK MANAGES TO PULL KENSI’S HANDS AWAY FROM HIS FACE, AND HE PULLS HIMSELF UP TO A KNEE BEFORE PULLING KENSI UP INTO A POWERBOMB POSITION! BLACK SHAMROCK MANAGED TO ESCAPE THE CROSSFACE AND LIFT KENSI UP INTO A POWERBOMB POSITION, AND NOW SHAMROCK QUICKLY HEADS TO THE CENTER OF THE RING BEFORE DROPPING KENSI IN A SIT-OUT POWERBOMB, FOLLOWED BY A COVER!

ONE!

TWO!!

Stew-O: KENSI MANAGES TO KICK OUT! That was a big move by Shamrock though, and it’s exactly what he needed against the two Elitists clearly more experienced than him!

Jake Mercer: Power is clearly Black Shamrock’s greatest friend right now, and Kensi and Lisa are being forced to learn that the hard way! Black Shamrock pulls Kensi back up, AND HE DELIVERS A HARD HITTING KNEE TO THE MIDSECTION! Black Shamrock now grabs Kensi by the arm, AND HE USES HIS FULL POWER TO SEND KENSI CRASHING INTO THE TURNBUCKLES! Kensi hit the turnbuckles hard, and now it looks like her and Lisa are the ones in trouble! Black Shamrock is looking great right now, and now he lifts Kensi up onto his shoulders-

Flannery McCoy: BUT KENSI MANAGES TO SLIP OUT OF BLACK SHAMROCK’S GRASP! KENSI CHARGES IN- BUT SHAMROCK DELIVERS A BECK ELBOW TO KENSI’S JAW! Kensi stumbles back, AND NOW SHAMROCK GOES FOR THE PSK- BUT IT DOESN’T CONNECT! THE BSK DOESN’T CONNECT BECAUSE KENSI MOVED OUT OF THE WAY, AND NOW KENSI CHARGES IN BEFORE DELIVERING A CHOP BLOCK TO THE BACK OF BLACK SHAMROCK’S LEG! Kensi now with the tag to Lisa Wren, and it looks like these two might be looking for a tag team maneuver as they send Shamrock towards the center of the ring! 

Stew-O: The two women charge in, AND THEY HIT A DOUBLE BIG BOOT TO SHAMROCK’S FACE! Lisa Wren now with the cover on Black Shamrock! 

ONE!

TWO!!

Stew-O: AND SHAMROCK MANAGES TO KICK OUT! That wasn’t enough to get the job done, but it looks like these two aren’t done just yet! Lisa Wren goes back to her team’s corner, and she tags Kensi back in! These two clearly know how to work as a team, and that might just be what separates these two from Black Shamrock and Seth Osiris! Their teamwork might just win them the match tonight!

Jake Mercer: Lisa Wren sends Black Shamrock into the corner, AND SHE CHARGES IN BEFORE DELIVERING A RUNNING SPLASH! Kensi now climbs up to the top rope as Black Shamrock stumbles out of the corner, AND SHE GOES FOR A DIVING CROSSBODY- WAIT NO! BLACK SHAMROCK CAUGHT KENSI! BLACK SHAMROCK CAUGHT KENSI, AND HE CHARGES INTO THE CORNER AND CRUSHES LISA WREN USING KENSI’S BODY, BEFORE TOSSING KENSI ACROSS THE RING WITH A FALLAWAY SLAM! Black Shamrock is in firm control of this match now, and it looks like their tag team moves didn’t actually go according to plan!

Flannery McCoy: Black Shamrock now with the tag to Seth Osiris, AND HE CHARGES AT KENSI WHO MANAGED TO CRAWL INTO THE CORNER, BEFORE DELIVERING A- NO! KENSI SLIPPED OUT OF THE WAY AS SHE PULLED HERSELF OUT TO THE APRON, AND SETH OSIRIS’ KNEE JUST HIT THE TURNBUCKLE! Kensi pulls herself up on the apron, AND SHE PULLS SETH’S THROAT DOWN ONTO THE TOP ROPE! Kensi quickly pulls herself back into the ring, AND SHE SLAMS SETH’S FACE INTO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE BEFORE PULLING HIM INTO A COBRA CLUTCH, AND NOW KENSI CONNECTS WITH A COBRA CLUTCH BULLDOG! COVER NOW BY KENSI!

ONE!

TWO!!

T-

Stew-O: SETH OSIRIS MANAGES TO GET THE SHOULDER UP! Kensi looks a bit frustrated, but this match isn’t over yet! Kensi pulls Seth Osiris back to his feet- BUT SETH OUT OF DESPERATION SHOVES KENSI INTO THE CORNER! KENSI BOUNCES OUT OF THE CORNER, AND SETH OSIRIS DELIVERS A SPINEBUSTER TO THE SMALLER OPPONENT! SETH OSIRIS DROPS TO THE MAT AND TRIES TO PULL AN ARM OVER KENSI… But wait a second! What’s the referee telling him!?

Referee: (off-mic) She’s not the legal woman! You can’t pin her!

Stew-O: Seth looks confused- BUT LISA WREN ENTERS THE RING AND DELIVERS A RUNNING SENTON!

Jake Mercer: Lisa tagged herself in when Seth pushed Kensi into the corner! That was genius! Kensi is rolling out onto the apron, and now Lisa Wren has the upper hand as she pulls Seth Osiris back up! SETH ISN’T GOING DOWN WITHOUT A FIGHT THOUGH, AS HE HITS LISA WITH A HARD-HITTING FOREARM! Lisa Wren manages to hit Seth with one in return though, and now she sends Seth into the ropes, BEFORE GOING FOR A HURRICANRANA! Seth Osiris stumbles into the corner as Lisa Wren charges in, AND LISA GOES FOR A-

Flannery McCoy: DISCUS LARIAT!!!!! DISCUS LARIAT BY SETH OSIRIS!!!! SETH OSIRIS JUST HIT LISA WREN WITH THE HUGE DISCUS LARIAT, AND THAT JUST TURNED LISA INSIDE OUT! SETH OSIRIS NOW GOES FOR THE COVER ON LISA WREN, AND I’D BE SURPRISED IF THAT’S NOT THE END OF THE MATCH! WHAT A RETURN THIS COULD BE FOR SETH!!

ONE!

TWO!!

THR-

Flannery McCoy: BUT IT’S NOT DONE YET!!! LISA WREN SOMEHOW FOUND IT IN HER TO GET THE SHOULDER UP! Somehow this match still isn’t over, but Seth Osiris now is fed up, and he’s beginning to punch away at Lisa Wren! This ground and pound isn’t good for Lisa! 

Stew-O: That’s right, but now Seth Osiris has something else on his mind that might be even more dangerous than all of the punches! Seth Osiris slowly gets back up to his feet before pulling Lisa Wren up, AND NOW SETH LIFTS LISA UP BEFORE GOING FOR ONE OF THE BIGGEST MOVES IN HIS ARSENAL! EAT AT THE TABLE- WAIT NO! LISA WREN SLIPS OUT OF SETH’S GRASP! LISA WREN SLIPPED OUT OF SETH OSIRIS’ GRASP, AND NOW SHE QUICKLY BOUNCES OFF OF THE ROPES BEFORE DELIVERING A RUNNING SUNSET FLIP POWERBOMB! Lisa Wren is still feeling the effects of the discus clothesline, but she manages to pull herself towards her team’s corner!

Jake Mercer: AND SHE MAKES THE TAG TO KENSI, WHO IMMEDIATELY CLIMBS UP TO THE TOP ROPE AS SHE SEES THAT SETH OSIRIS IS SLOWLY BEGINNING TO STIR, BUT THAT MIGHT NOT MATTER AT THIS POINT OF THE MATCH! Black Shamrock is telling Seth Osiris to get back up and get his head in the game, but Seth is stunned and I don’t blame him at all, that sunset flip powerbomb clearly rocked him, and whatever Kensi has in mind might just do a whole lot worse!

Flannery McCoy: SPECIAL K!!!! SETH OSIRIS HAD MADE IT BACK TO HIS FEET, AND THAT ALLOWED KENSI TO DIVE OFF OF THE TOP ROPE AND DELIVER HER FINISHING MANEUVER! BLACK SHAMROCK JUST ENTERED THE RING, BUT LISA WREN IS ALREADY IN THE RING AND SHE QUICKLY CHARGES AT BLACK SHAMROCK AND HITS HIM WITH A HUGE FOREARM TO STOP HIM FROM BREAKING THINGS UP! KENSI IS NOW ABLE TO GO FOR THE COVER WITHOUT HAVING TO WORRY ABOUT IT BEING BROKEN UP, AND THIS HAS TO BE IT! THE MATCH HAS TO BE OVER!

ONE!

TWO!!

THREE!!!

(Ding! Ding! Ding!)

Stephie Love: Here are your winners…… KENNSSSIIIIIIIII AND LIIIISSSAAA WWERRRENNNNNN!!!!!

Stew-O: And there it is! Kensi and Lisa Wren pick up the victory! These two had a rough loss back at Operation: Doomsday and after we all saw what was running through their minds last week on Dynasty, but they made it clear that they wanted to bounce back, and bounce back they did!

Jake Mercer: I knew Kensi and Lisa would win this match, I was just testing you guys! These two clearly know what they’re doing as a team, but Seth Osiris and Black Shamrock didn’t do bad at all.

Flannery McCoy: I’m just gonna ignore that first sentence. I agree, Seth and Shamrock didn’t do bad at all. As long as they keep pushing forward I think they may have what it takes to do some great things, just like Kensi and Lisa. Clearly, we know who the better team was tonight though, so congratulations to Kensi and Lisa Wren!

(‘Sacrifice’ hits as Kensi gets back up to her feet, and Lisa Wren joins her as the two have their hands raised by the referee and the crowd gives a mixed reaction. At this point, Seth Osiris has already rolled out of the ring and is looking to recover, and Black Shamrock is seen frustrated after his team didn’t win the match. Nonetheless, Kensi and Lisa continue to celebrate their victory as Dynasty begins to fade from ringside.)

(A commercial is shown for Discord starring various Elite Answers Wrestling stars, the perfect place to ask for a pint at a bar and call your World Champions trash.)

( The scene fades backstage and cuts to Dynasty correspondent, Michael Belfort. Belfort sports a nice suit and professional smile, and as soon as he is given the signal, he begins speaking. )

Michael Belfort: With Territorial Invasion right around the corner, things have been heating up here in Elite Answers Wrestling. Battle lines have been drawn and brands are gearing up to go to war with one another for another season of bragging rights. Joining me right now are two people who are hoping to find themselves on the Territorial Invasion card… the Unified Tag Team Champions, Xavier Williams and Harlow Reichert. Guys, welcome, and thank you for joining me.

( The camera shot widens to show both Xavier and Harlow standing on either side of Belfort. Both of the champions are dressed in street clothes and have their belts slung across their shoulders. Harlow can’t help but look at her boyfriend and roll her eyes. She tosses her silky black hair behind her shoulders and shakes her head. )

Harlow Reichert: I realize that your introduction was probably meant to come off as light-hearted and friendly, but the fact Xavier and I are trying to find a match for Territorial Invasion is rather sad to me. We are the Unified Tag Team Champions and we should have people lining up for the right to challenge us.

Xavier Williams: At the very least, StarrStan should be going above and beyond to make sure that the tag team division is stacked with competition.

Michael Belfort: Well let’s talk about that. At Operation: Doomsday, the two of you faced the inexperienced team of Lisa Wren and Kensi, who put up a rather valiant effort even in defeat. Neither of you seemed particularly worried about the challenge those two ladies could potentially present, and at several points during the match, it appeared as if Lisa and Kensi could have pulled off the upset.

Xavier Williams: Let me stop you right there. There wasn’t any point in the match where either of us feared that our reign was going to come to an end. Lisa Wren and Kensi might have risen to the occasion, but Harlow and I were never in any danger of losing. The two of us have weathered a lot of storms throughout our time here in EAW, and had a plethora of personal and professional experience to draw on during that match, which is why the situation never really got out of hand for either of us. We did what we always do and that is wrestle circles around our competition, regardless of who they are.

Harlow Reichert: It’s like Xav said during the week of Operation: Doomsday, we were both expected to pretend that the match with Lisa and Kensi was something bigger than what it really was. They were never a threat to us, and they definitely weren’t a challenge. I’m not going to go as far as saying that the entire match was a waste of our time, because ultimately the two of us just want to compete and defend our championships like the goats that we are, but I’m not about to act like every team that comes our way is a legitimate threat to our reign. That’s simply not true.

Michael Belfort: Even though it’s unclear who might step up to the plate for Territorial Invasion, Voltage is in the process of holding what is being hailed as a mini-Grand Prix tournament of sorts. The Tag Team Turmoil Tournament has put together eight pretty impressive teams, with the winner of the tournament being decided at Wicked Games. Captain Charisma has stated that the winners of the tournament will receive a shot at the Unified Tag Team Championships. While that doesn’t answer the immediate question of who will potentially step up to the plate for Territorial Invasion, it does raise some interest in the tag team division going forward.

Xavier Williams: This is where I have a problem, Michael. The lack of interest shown in the tag team division by StarrStan concerns me. I spent a good portion of my time last season bored and uninterested with Showdown because of how poorly managed the brand was. Trust me, it was a breath of fresh air to be drafted over to Dynasty or so I thought. It’s clear that StarrStan’s concern is not the tag team division and that’s disheartening because I am a Hall of Famer. Harlow is one of the best in the business today. The two of us holding these championships raise the value of them tremendously, and that is something I feel StarrStan doesn’t see.

Harlow Reichert: It sucks because I had high hopes for this season. I was ready for a change of scenery after wasting away on Showdown for two straight seasons but it really does seem like that the more things change, the more they stay the same.

Xavier Williams: The point is, Harlow and I don’t want to just sit idly by and let the world pass us up. We’ve been there, done that, and it ran its course last season. We want to be inside the ring, defending the Unified Tag Team Championships, and at this point, the competition might not even matter. It’s clear that StarrStan is preoccupied with people he deems more important than two of his own brand’s champions, and that’s completely fine. At this point, Harlow and I are used to it which is why we took control of our respective destinies before Pain for Pride. We set our sights on what we wanted and we took the Unified Tag Team Championships from a seemingly dominant team that cracked the second they were faced with real competition.

( Harlow looks over at Xav and grins at him. )

Harlow Reichert: And if the two of us need to go hunting for competition, then you better believe that we are willing to do that too.

Michael Belfort: Far be it for me to talk about rumors, but the little birdies have been chirping all week that Captain Charisma might have one more thing up his sleeve. The tag team lottery may be used to produce another team, potential challengers to the two of you at Territorial Invasion. How would you feel about that?

Xavier Williams: Considering the majority of the roster was already thrown into the tournament, I’m not sure what type of team could possibly be made from another random drawing.

Harlow Reichert: It actually doesn’t even matter to me. I won’t speak for Xavier, but I just want to be a fighting champion. When I held the PURE Championship, I defended it every single week and nearly ran an entire gauntlet in order to hold on to it. Being a champion means everything to me, and I take a lot of pride in this belt that’s on my shoulder. The Unified Tag Team Championships have a long history and some of the biggest names EAW has ever had have held them, Xav included, and I plan to make sure that the name ‘Harlow Reichert’ goes down in history as one of the best to ever do this. In order to continue building my own legacy, I need to be inside that ring. It’s taken me a long time to get my head together and get myself focused on my career again. I don’t think it’s any secret that Showdown destroyed all the passion I had for this business. The management over there used me, jerked me around, forced me to act out of character, and made me contemplate quitting this business altogether. I was living in my own personal version of Hell, and I don’t want to go back there ever again. If Voltage wants to throw together a team to face Xavier and me, then so be it. I’m down for whatever at this point. I’m not going to spend another season questioning whether or not any of this is even worth it. That’s taxing and emotionally draining, and I can not go through that again.

Xavier Williams: Harlow and I both want to be seen as fighting champions, and I have never backed down from anyone in my career. So whatever hand we are dealt when it comes to Territorial Invasion, we’ll make the most of it. The two of us plan to be the Unified Tag Team Champions for a very long time, and I realize that it’s probably unrealistic to assume that every team that comes around is going to be on our level. They simply won’t be. I just want to make sure that everyone realizes that Harlow and I aren’t going to let anyone or any situation hold us back. We will stand side by side and defend these champions against anyone; whether it’s an experienced team or another Lisa/Kensi situation.

Harlow Reichert: Absolutely. So I guess both of us will be keeping an eye on Voltage this weekend to see if there’s anything to be made of this ‘rumor’, and if it is, then Xavier and I will be ready. One way or another, we will be defending these championships at Territorial Invasion.

Michael Belfort: I can’t think of any better note to end on than that.

( Belfort looks directly into the camera. )

Michael Belfort: Xavier Williams and Harlow Reichert have vowed to defend the Unified Tag Team Championships at Territorial Invasion. I don’t know about you, but I absolutely can not wait to see who their opponents end up being! Stick with us, folks. We are just getting started tonight. We’ll be right back.

( Belfort sends the broadcast to commercial break and the last shot before the scene fades is of Xavier and Harlow falling into step together and walking away. )

(Out at ringside, the cameras do a sweep over the raucous live audience in attendance for tonight’s Friday Night Dynasty broadcast, all anticipating what’s to come next! “It Follows” by Cane Hill begins to play and that changes their joyous mood into a reception of boos for the World Heavyweight Champion as he makes his way out from the back, shaking his head at the jeering and booing crowd who all make their displeasure for him known. Xander stands at the top of the ramp taking in the reception with an unfazed stature about himself, before starting down the ramp!)

Stephie Love: Please welcome at this time, your World Heavyweight Champion… XAAAANNNNNDEEEERRRRR PAAAAAYYYYYYNNNNNEEEEEE!!!!

Stew-O: Xander Payne is on his way to the ring and for what, we’ll find out soon enough, but I would think that maybe he’d be strategizing with his teammate for the second week in a row now, who’s ironically enough his opponent for his next Championship defense, Andrea Valentine!

Flannery McCoy: Who’s to say they haven’t? I would trust Andrea to make sure that they would go out here later on tonight with a sound game plan considering the matches she’s had with their opponents, and Xander just went through a war of wills against SOSA Henderson back at Operation: Doomsday – surely they’ll have worked something out.

Jake Mercer: I don’t know, Flan. I have it on good authority that Xander hasn’t eaten anything in the last 4 minutes; who knows what kind of trouble that could cause for their team!

Flannery McCoy: :skip:

(Xander makes his way into the ring after retrieving a microphone for himself and he casually walks to the middle of the mat. He looks out into the audience as his music fades and awaits for the booing to quiet down, before he finally speaks.)

Xander Payne: So many people seem to have it out for me these days, wanting to try to rank themselves above me and my stature as the World Heavyweight Champion just because they say and want to believe it’s that way. People from this brand will make fools of themselves trying to justify why they only think that they’re surpassing the level that I’m competing at when it’s been me who’s been raising the bar and giving StarrStan the World Champion that his brand has been needing for the longest time now. Ever since I ascended to the top and took my rightful place as the World Heavyweight Champion, I’ve been nothing but the example of dominance that people are looking at in awe and needing to hype themselves up into believing they stand a chance against – but every single time, I’ve given them a test that they just can’t pass and it should come as no surprise that I’ve delivered on every occasion to crush whatever hopes they had of taking what’s mine.

(The crowd continues to boo while Xander remains standing in the ring and their continued show of hate draws an amused scoff from the Champion, not surprised and certainly not in need of their approval when he’s sure enough of himself as it is.)

Xander Payne: What, you all don’t believe me like I haven’t provided everyone the proof as a FACT of what I’ve accomplished in these months as THE World Champion of EAW? Everyone that’s ended up in front of me one way or another – whether they earned their shot or not – has been defeated, they’ve fallen at my hands and there’s been nothing that anyone’s been able to do about it because everyone’s learned the hard that there’s been no stopping my reign! When it’s come down to it, when I’ve been defending my Championship and setting the precedent for withstanding every attack that’s been launched against me, I’ve been unstoppable. Just ask Charlie Marr, go find Impact and he’ll tell you all about it, and ask SOSA Henderson if gassing himself up just fail got him what he truly wanted in the end. But this goes even beyond them and starts at the very beginning when I ripped this Championship away from Lethal Consequences to be the Heavyweight God I’ve proven myself to be nothing short of!

Xander Payne: LC was a relic of a bygone era that had somehow, someway found himself succeeding in this new era of EAW. He came in with history, knowledge, and experience that eventually got him to some of the achievements that we all saw play out…. until his World Heavyweight Championship run found me in the pathway and I slammed the brakes on that reign like only I could. I put that Hall of Famer down in a Dome of Death and that couldn’t have been a more fitting name to go right along with how his reign was killed off by me. There was Charlie Marr who everyone had called ruthless, bloodthirsty, a cold-blooded and destructive force to be reckoned with. A man who took every route and avenue to success by any means necessary because he stopped at literally nothing to achieve dominance…. and then I showed him exactly why his past success wouldn’t translate over from anything he’d done before against someone of MY caliber. Everyone tried to say that Impact’s World Title reigns are just “expected” at this point, and maybe he’s earned that kind of reputation with all he’s accomplished – but when he came looking for that record-setting tenth World Championship, I denied him that success at my expense and showed the world that I was prepared to take him to limits that he wasn’t prepared to cross over into in the end.

Xander Payne: And to start this season as I would prove this reign is nowhere near finished? SOSA Henderson. A former World Champion just like the rest, a man so determined to try to be the one who would take me down, and yet despite all the time that I generously allowed him to change his mind and keep him from embarrassing himself for having run his mouth about goals he wouldn’t achieve – he pressed on just to find himself on the losing end. He decided his ego was more important than heeding the warning I gave him in advance, and what he got for all that he fought for was a loss while being a stepping stone for what more that I’m going to go on to accomplish. I’ve beaten the former World Champions were thrown in front of me, the Hall of Famers, the future Hall of Famers – LC, Impact, and Charlie Marr, and SOSA Henderson and then….. Andrea Valentine.

(Xander’s announcement of Andrea’s name brings cheers from the crowd and he gives them their moment to get that out, in no rush to quiet them down but merely sighing as he was quite clearly preparing himself to dismiss their hopes.)

Xander Payne: You’re all so eager to see me removed from this spot of mine one way or another that you’ll take anyone at this point, even someone like her who’s shown over time that she isn’t looking anyway at all capable of going to the heights that she once accomplished. Andrea Valentine has fallen down the ladder and defeating The Visual Prophet wasn’t the win she thinks it is when the opportunity that came to be on the line wasn’t for who’d challenge me next, it was for which one of them would be next to fall at my feet and she rushed into that opportunity head-first like the desperate, delusional whore she is. I’m sure she would’ve taken any chance to try to come close to where she once stood, but as she’ll come to find out, all that eagerness to try to dethrone me is just misguided hope and misplaced trust within herself. Territorial Invasion will be a disaster for her and she’ll be lucky if she doesn’t go spiraling out again. But that’s no concern of mine – what I do know is that she’s previously accomplished, she’s got stats that have her lined up for a possible Hall of Fame induction, and that’s another name I’m putting on my list for who I’ll have continued to defeat during this reign. She’s otherwise no real threat, not worthy of being the one to defeat me-

(“Roll With Me” by Charli XCX cuts off the World Heavyweight Champion before he can continue and turning his attention to the stage with a roll of his eyes, Xander sees Andrea on her way out with a microphone in hand!)

Flannery McCoy: Surely, Xander had to know that Andrea Valentine wasn’t going to sit in the back and let him go on for much longer! She’s been on a mission to step up every chance she’s gotten, and to come out and confront him was going to be no different!

Stew-O: With everything that she had gone through last season, showing how that she’s made a change and for the better is going to be something that we’ll surely continue to see from her, but Xander’s getting an up-close demonstration of that now and she looks ready to have this kind of meeting with the Champion after having gotten her chance to earn the right to be the next challenger to that World Heavyweight Championship!

(Andrea looks around at the cheering audience before heading down the ramp, shaking her head as she mouths off at Xander without the use of the microphone as she comes up the steps and gets into the ring to stand across from him.)

Andrea Valentine: Are you sure this is the way you wanna go about things tonight considering we’re supposed to be tag team partners for our match later? I’m not surprised to hear you dismissing me as a challenge and not even thinking to see me as a threat – and I know we both would much rather be fighting each other than having to team up, but this is just another sign of you wanting to overlook me when this isn’t the time for you to be making that kind of mistake. You’ve beaten me before just last season before I was traded from Dynasty to Showdown, but I’ve been all about proving how this time it’s all going to be a really different situation for me.

Andrea Valentine: Everyone knows that Season 14 wasn’t the season I wanted it to be and I let things get way out of control – some of the stuff that I ended up doing are a lot of things that I wouldn’t think about doing now and looking back on them, I can see how they affected the people involved. But since Pain for Pride, I’ve beaten former World Champions, I’ve beaten reigning Champions in this season already, and I’ve certainly been showing that I’ll do the work to prove how drastically different I’m going to be out to prove things really are. I had the chance to finally have that match with Xavier Williams and I seized that opportunity the way I know I needed to, the same can be said about how I was prepared to do what was necessary for me to defeat Viz and it just so happens that I managed to get myself a World Heavyweight Title match for myself out of that whole situation as well – and now that I’ve got the chance to come back around to Dynasty and defeat you on this second chance, I’m not gonna let this opportunity get by me! You’re in for a world of shock when you realize that you had no business underestimating me or looking past me once I’ve beaten you, and when you don’t have that World Heavyweight Championship any longer, you’ll know exactly where you went wrong!

(Xander only looks annoyed with Andrea’s determination while the seriousness from his challenger is evident, and the Champion shakes his head in disagreement as he works himself up to respond.)

Xander Payne: Don’t you know any better than to go giving these fans anymore false hope? Shouldn’t you have thought those words out more carefully, considering they’re words coming from just someone else that’s a non-believer of me being capable of doing everything that I said I’m going to? They trusted Impact, they trusted SOSA, and while you came into this season off of a lackluster Season 14 with people doubting what you’d bring to the table this time, you’re trying to get them to trust in you now and they’re going to find themselves beyond disappointed once again not only with you, Andrea, but with the fact that I won’t and refuse to be beaten! But they’ll have no choice but to recognize me for the Champion that I am, the Champion that’s necessary to lead Dynasty and EAW for what it means to be a dominant face of this industry like only I can!

Xander Payne: And as far as you go, Andrea? You’re just another defense. You’re just someone else that I’m going to use to keep propping myself up as the World Heavyweight Champion, as I’ve done with everyone who was left knowing that couldn’t get on my level. What I bring to the ring, what I bring to EAW – there’s no one who can ultimately do it like I can and come Territorial Invasion, you’ll come to know that you need to realize that you’re not someone who’s meant to lead but someone who should be recognizing me for who I AM and that’s the World Heavyweight God! Untouchable, the man who’s been carrying Dynasty for the past few months, and there’s nobody that’s come close to showing they’re prepared to take over from me in the ways that I’ve shown that I’m the only one capable. But I’m not surprised, not shocked to know that I’ve done all that through multiple months, multiple FPVs, or that I’ve carried this reign through one season and continued it into this one – and it won’t be long until it’s seen that I’ll continue to do all that through Territorial Invasion as well.

(Andrea isn’t impressed by any of it at all, rolling her eyes and shaking her head having listened to all of that and there’s nothing about her that’s been shaken. But just the same, Xander hasn’t switched up and has remained confident and collected ever since he walked out in front of the crowd, and Andrea’s presence is something he hasn’t shown to let affect him either.)

Andrea Valentine: Honestly, I’m glad you’re confident, Xander, because I wouldn’t want it any other way for when I beat you. It’ll only make my win just that much sweeter when I win the World Heavyweight Championship for the first time-

Xander Payne: And there you go getting your hopes again, thinking that you’ll change the outcome from last year’s Territorial Invasion just because you’ve been winning lately, but I can change that in a moment and when I DO defeat you, Andrea, you suddenly won’t be so sure and confident like you are now. This World Heavyweight Championship? It’s not leaving my possession and that’s something you can count on.

(Xander raises the World Heavyweight Championship from off his shoulder and up into the air, staring down Andrea as she looks up at the Championship that’s above their heads before she looks back at Xander.)

Andrea Valentine: If you feel like being that dense and refuse to see me as a challenge, as a legit threat, then trust me that it won’t be a problem for me to show you how wrong you are at Territorial Invasion but I can start that even tonight. In tonight’s main event match, you can watch me go to work against two former World Champions that I’m sure I can get a win over in this match and I’m sure I can close this match for us again, even without too much help from you at all if this is how you’re gonna be. And when I’m beating Viz again, and now SOSA – two former World Champions – maybe then you’ll realize just how much immediate and very real danger your reign is in with me coming for that Championship.

(Andrea tosses her microphone down at Xander’s feet and “Roll With Me” begins to play again. Xander simply keeps the World Heavyweight Championship raised, scowling at his tag team partner for the night and his future Territorial Invasion challenger. As the two of them stare each other down, the scene in the ring begins to fade out.)

(A commercial is shown for ProtonVPN, sometimes you need it for Netflix, sometimes you need it to sneak into websites that you’ve been exiled from while being filled to the brim with copium.)

(Dynasty comes back from commercial break and fades into the backstage area. Michael Belfort is seen in the interview area. The Dynasty logo is shown flashing wildly on a screen behind him as he stands in front smiling and holding a microphone.)

Michael Belfort: Ladies and gentlemen at this time please welcome my guest… DOMINO STONE!!!!

(Domino Stone makes her way into the scene, she has her arms crossed with a stern look on her face while she looks towards Michael Belfort. Michael nods his head in greeting while Domino rolls her eyes and looks towards the camera.)

Michael Belfort: So Domino I know that you have personally requested this time to speak this week. Well the General Manager has answered your call and you have the time to talk about everything and say whatever you want. The floor is yours.

(Michael Belfort hands Domino Stone the microphone and backs off screen as she takes it and looks towards the camera to speak to the EAW fans directly.)

Domino Stone: Another week, another day to kick the ass of another unfortunate soul who tries to step up to the plate. I know I been running my mouth this week but it’s for a good reason, besides, I know all of you adoring fans and my best friend Sierra couldn’t get enough of me regardless. You see, the point I’m out here for is to clear the air before I get another victory under my belt. Bitches around here love to run their mouth and say that I’m not all that. They like to say that Domino Stone isn’t up to snuff even after everything that she’s done to prove otherwise. When I’ve collected those bones, collected that money, and accumulated that fame; for some reason bitches like to believe that it just isn’t enough to say that I’m as good as I say I am. Let’s state the obvious real quick, have all of you been seeing how I’ve been suddenly thrust all up into this spotlight these last few weeks? You don’t need to answer that, the point is that’s to be expected. A star of my caliber deserves to have the light shining down on them, and unlike what people like to say, that’s not arrogance, that’s facts. And if you need more proof, see me back it up in the ring every week showing exactly why I deserve that, why I deserve everything that I’ve been given and I’m damn sure not wasted time. 

Domino Stone: When I haven’t been pinned once since my Elite Answers Wrestling debut, how the hell can you say that I don’t deserve shit because of some “loss” that occurred at Operation: Doomsday. I am one of the best here on Friday Night Dynasty and have proved that in just a few short weeks ever since I stepped through that door. Elite Answers Wrestling saw dollar signs, and I gave them a reason to right off the mat. I have stepped up to this motherfucking plate and I’m about to hit a homerun when you consider how my future is about to turn out. And I know all of you can see it too. You can see just how much of an asset that Domino Stone is going to prove herself to be and anyone that doesn’t see it can see it for themselves when they walk their sorry ass into the ring with me. I can see it all; the money, the fame, the fortune, all of that Championship gold. You know if there is something to be won, I want it, I want it all. Of course I am not so entitled just to demand it, no, of course I’m going to earn it with that hard work that’s been there since the beginning, and that’s the kind of person that Domino Stone is. Not that wack ass shit that everyone has been trying to say about me from the get go.

Domino Stone: One-by-one they’ll all fall into my hands. Mark my words, it’s only a matter of time before you’re placing Domino Stone in the proper place that she deserves to be in, and that’s a Champion like I was born to me. You blink and you miss it, but it’s all going to happen before you know it mark my words. I am all about that hustle and the haters are trying to hold me down, it’s been a long and treacherous road in the world of professional wrestling to get here and in the end it’s nothing new. I have always been forced to take the hard way so why stop now, why stop kicking ass when it’s what you’re best at?

Domino Stone: The people want Domino Stone. It all starts right here tonight in North Little Rock, Arkansas at the Simmons Bank Arena. You all are witnessing history as I steamroll over my best friend Sierra and make my name known on these streets. You just can’t stop the Bone Collector from collecting all their bones. And anyone underestimating that claim is in for one hell of a shocker when this match comes around-

???: Absolutely hilarious.

(The crowd begins to give a mixed reaction upon seeing Sierra walk into frame. She’s in her ring gear with her hands on her hips, looking at Domino while scoffing. Domino simply looks at her with a straight look on her face, clearly unamused.)

Domino Stone: Oh you actually showed up. Why am I not surprised?

Sierra: Awww you think you actually said something important? How cute. I mean you’re not worth anything more than underestimating and you haven’t even given me a reason to be proven otherwise. As much as I would love that. I mean I am here to make a statement for myself, hun. I don’t really think it would be the best impression either if I beat some disappointment who’s all hype and no bite who didn’t bear any challenge to me in the first place. Sadly that is probably what I am going to get from someone like you. They could really do with finding me a bit better competition. There’s gotta be someone actually on my level-

???: Is that what you want?

(The booming voice of Kensi is heard while she coincidentally walks into the scene with a smirk on her face. Upon seeing that, she’s followed by Lisa Wren, both of them looking to one another in disappointment before turning towards them.

Kensi: How kewt is that, Lisa? Two people who haven’t even been properly shown in the limelight during Season 15 begging for an opportunity like that isn’t present for them? Like they have an actual effect on the Dynasty roster might I add? But if you truly do want that, then my my, look at who came around? We said it last week and we’ll say it again, me and Lisa deserve whatever is going to present themselves. Not you two, none of that, we’ve been first in line for a long time now and we’re not just going to accept people cutting in line. We both have fallen down in the past, yet we haven’t given up. If there’s one thing that both me and Lisa can co-exist on? It’s the fact that we both deserve our due. 

Lisa Wren: Me and Stripperella have always made an impression when the time comes to do that. Making sure that one way or another we get the job done, no matter what it takes. It’s what she said before, sure we’ve fallen down, but it doesn’t mean that we’re not going to get back up to our feet at the end of the day. We’re only continuing to work up the card and I’ll be damned if that Unified Tag Team Championship match at Operation: Doomsday is the end of everything that we’ve been working for. If there’s two people that deserve to be the future of this company more than us, then step up to the plate. But I just don’t see it.

Sierra: Please, give me a fucking break. I’ve had enough of being stepped over and people acting like that’s ok. If there’s one thing I’m saying for certain, if there’s a line like Kensi is talking about? Well then, consider me first unlike the rest of you.

Domino Stone: :mjlol: Believe what you want to believe, but it ain’t gonna be you. 

Kensi: 🙄 We’re really about to argue about this right here and now? 

(Everyone begins arguing over who is the best and who is the future as the segment descends into chaos with no woman able to be heard over the others. As they argue the camera pans to the side to show a dark shadow lurking around the corner. None other than StarrStan is seen watching the four women argue with a passion. The Dynasty General Manager slowly nods while he takes mental notes. He then turns around and walks away while Dynasty fades out to elsewhere from there.)

(‘Odd Eye’ by DREAMCATCHER starts playing through the speakers. Sierra steps into the stage with a serious expression on her face, gaining a mixed reaction from the crowd. Sierra starts making her way down to the ring, as the one walking out behind her is none other than her partner, ‘La Diosa,’ Ximena Velasquez.) 

Stephie Love: The following contest is scheduled for… 

Crowd: ONE FALL! 

Stephie Love: ONE FALL! 

Stephie Love: Making her way to the ring, from San Jose, California weighing in at 121 pounds, she is ‘THE QUEEN’ SIEEEEEEEEERRRRAAAAAAAA!!!!!

Stew-O: Ximena Velasquez won at Operation: Doomsday last week for a Unique Opportunity, and now she is facing Ms. Extreme for The Universal Women’s Championship at Territorial Invasion. But now, this match is Sierra’s chance to bounce back, despite everything. The serious expression is clear on Sierra’s face; this season has been a rough season for her, and now she has the chance of picking up her first win in the season. 

Flannery McCoy: But in order to do that, she has to beat one of the toughest new talents here on the roster; Domino Stone. 

(As Sierra is in the ring, and Ximena Velasquez is standing on the ringside, ‘Silence & Surrender – Tangerine Beams Remix’ by C Z A R I N A ft. tangerine beams replaces ‘Odd Eye,’ as Domino Stone steps into the stage with a smiling expression on her face, gaining a loud mixed reaction from the crowd. She shows off, before making her way down to the ring.) 

Stephie Love: And her opponent, from Los Angeles, CA weighing in at 157 pounds, ‘The Bone Collector,’ DOMINO STOOONNNEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! 

Stew-O: And now comes ‘The Bone Collector!’ She had an impressive debut match win over Johnny Andrews, a great showing in both the tag team match with The Visual Prophet against Lisa Wren and SOSA Henderson before a no contest end by Xander Payne, and the Unique Opportunity Match at Operation: Doomsday which was own by Sierra’s own partner, Ximena Velasquez, and most recently, an impressive win over one of Voltage’s talented new Elitists, Rebecca Black! And tonight, she has the chance to keep that wave of momentum going if she could leave this match with a win over Sierra. 

(DING! DING! DING!) 

Jake Mercer: Here’s the bell, we are now underway! And now Sierra starts running at Domino wasting no time hitting Bicycle Kick! 

Stew-O: Domino falls on her back as Sierra immediately runs off the ropes, she rebounds running at Domino hitting a Shining Wizard-

Flannery McCoy: No! Domino moves down! Sierra falls behind Domino, as Domino gets up. Sierra slowly gets back up, BUT DOMINO HITS A NORTHERN LIGHTS SUPLEX! SHE GOES FOR THE COVER! 

Referee: ONNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! 

TWOOOOOOOOO-

Stew-O: And Sierra with a quick kick out! 

Jake Mercer: Now, Domino gets back up. She gets up Sierra, getting her in a Sidewalk Slam position. She goes for it, and… it connects! 

Flannery McCoy: Domino gets up again, she taunts the crowd with a smiling expression on her face, looking at Ximena Velasquez who doesn’t look so happy as well, BEFORE SIERRA ROLLS HER UP FROM BEHIND! 

Referee: ONNNEEEEEEEEE!!!! 

TWWWOOOOOOOOOO-

Jake Mercer: Kick out by Domino, as both competitors get back up to their feet. And now Domino runs at Sierra, but Sierra connects with a Calf Kick! Domino Stone falls. Sierra immediately hits a Jumping Double High Knees! 

Stew-O: Domino holds her stomach in pain, as Sierra gets her up by the hair throwing her outside! Domino Stone falls outside the ring holding her hair, while Sierra quickly runs off the ropes rebounding… SIERRA CONNECTS WITH A TOPE CON HILO ON DOMINO STONE! 

Referee: ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE! 

Flannery McCoy: Looks like she is not done yet… She runs sliding in the ring, as she runs off the ropes rebounding again… ANOTHER TOPE CON HILO-

Jake Mercer: NO! DOMINO STONE CATCHES HER ON HER SHOULDERS! And now she lifts Sierra up high in her hands… GORILLA PRESS SLAM ON THE ANNOUNCING TABLE!!!! Domino starts laughing before she walks up to Ximena Velasquez. What is Domino Stone thinking of? She stares at Ximena, getting in her face. Ximena doesn’t look happy at all, as the angry expression is totally clear on her face!

Referee: SIX! SEVEN! EIGHT! 

Stew-O: And now Domino turns, getting up Sierra, as she gets her in the ring, throwing her inside while holding her by the hair! 

Referee: NINE! 

Flannery McCoy: Domino slides back inside the ring before the tenth count. 

Jake Mercer: Domino Stone gets Sierra up, she gets her up… AND A PUMPHANDLE SLAM! 

Stew-O: Domino Stone gets back up, she grabs the pad of the corner exposing the turnbuckle… What is she looking for? 

Jake Mercer: She gets up Sierra as she Irish Whips her hard into the exposed turnbuckle, making her back hit it with full speed! Oh my God! 

Flannery McCoy: What a cheap shot by Domino Stone. 

Jake Mercer: Cheap? How the hell are you calling that cheap? That’s intelligence! 

Flannery McCoy: :comeagain:

Stew-O: And now Domino gets Sierra up, she tries to Irish Whip her hard into the exposed turnbuckle again- No! Sierra reverses Irish Whipping her into the exposed turnbuckle- No! Domino holds the ropes, saving herself at the last second! But she elbows Sierra’s ribs hard, again! Again! Sierra backs up, as Domino runs at her connecting with a shoulder block- But Sierra ducks underneath, Sierra rolls her up before she turns. SCHOOLBOY INTO A SUPERKICK!!! SIERRA WITH THE COVER! 

Referee: ONNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! 

TWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! 

THREEEEEEEE-

Flannery McCoy: Domino with a kick out! Sierra looks at Domino with an angry expression on her face. 

(The referee grabs the pod, then places it on the exposed turnbuckle where it was, making the match safe again.)

Jake Mercer: Sierra sets Domino up on her knees, she runs off the ropes, as she rebounds… AND WITH A SHINING WIZARD! 

Flannery McCoy: She is not done yet. She gets up Domino again, AND WITH A SUNSET FLIP POWERBOMB! INTO A COVER! 

Referee: ONNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! 

TWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! 

THRRREEEEEEEEEEEEE-

Stew-O: No! Domino Stone with a kick out again! Sierra looks quite angry, as she picks up Domino. We can see the same angry expression on the face of The Universal Women’s Championship Number One Contender! Sierra jumps on the ropes springboarding, BEFORE CONNECTING WITH A TORNADO DDT! DOMINO STONE IS DOWN! Sierra starts climbing the top rope, AND WITH A DIVING DOUBLE FOOT STOMP TO DOMINO-

Jake Mercer: BUT DOMINO MOVES AWAY! SIERRA FLIPS OVER DOMINO AS SHE GETS UP, SHE RUNS OFF THE ROPES REBOUNDING WITH FULL SPEED! DOMINO STONE GETS UP QUICKLY CONNECTING WITH A HIGH KNEE TO SIERRA!

Flannery McCoy: Sierra falls, as Domino Stone taunts the crowd hyped up! She turns to Sierra, as Sierra slowly starts getting up, as she leans on the ropes for some seconds- BUT DOMINO STONE WASTES NO TIME, AS SHE RUNS AT HER CLOTHESLINING HER OUT OF THE RING!!! 

Referee: ONE! TWO! 

Stew-O: Sierra slowly gets up using the barricade… BUT DOMINO STONE RUNS OFF THE ROPES, REBOUNDS… SUICIDE DIVE MAKING SIERRA HIT THE BARRICADE!!!! SUICIDE DIVE INTO THE BARRICADE!! 

Referee: THREE! FOUR! FIVE! 

Flannery McCoy: Domino gets up, as she picks Sierra up, AND WITH A POWERSLAM ON THE APRON!!!!

Referee: SIX! SEVEN! 

Jake Mercer: And now Domino pushes Sierra inside the ring, as Sierra holding her back looking totally hurt. She looks at Ximena Velasquez who is staring at her with clear anger before laughing, as she slides back inside the ring once again! 

Jake Mercer: Domino Stone gets up Sierra, as she gets her in a Snap Suplex position! She goes for it lifting her up-

Stew-O: No! Sierra knees her head! Again! Again! Domino lets go as Sierra gets back up to her feet… Sierra with a Roundhouse Kick to Domino that connects, as Domino falls! Sierra backs off to the corner, as she taunts waiting for Domino to get up… Domino gets back up, AS SIERRA RUNS AT DOMINO HITTING A ‘SEROTONIN’! THE ROLLING ELBOW CONNECTS!!! SIERRA WITH THE COVER!

Referee: ONNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! 

TWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! 

THRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEE-

Flannery McCoy: DOMINO STONE MANAGES TO KICK OUT! SHE GETS THE SHOULDER UP! And now Sierra gets up looking at Domino with an angry expression, she runs towards the ropes… AND THE ‘STUPID BITCH’!!! THE HANDSPRING MOONSAULT CONNECTS!!!!! SIERRA IMMEDIATELY GOES FOR THE COVER!

Referee: ONNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! 

TWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! 

THRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! 

Jake Mercer: DOMINO WITH THE FOOT ON THE BOTTOM ROPE! Sierra looks completely shocked with what just happened as it is now clear with the shocked expression on her face. We can see a clear angry, shocked expression on the face of Ximena Velasquez, who punches the barricade in anger. Sierra picks up Domino Stone, as she lifts her up in a Backbreaker Rack position. SIERRA WITH A ‘SELF DESTRUCTOR’!! THE BACKBREAKER RACK, THEN INTO KNEE LIFT! IT CONNECTS- NO! DOMINO GRABS HER KNEE, NOT ALLOWING SIERRA TO GO FOR IT! DOMINO ELBOWS SIERRA’S HEAD! Domino gets back up, as she gets Sierra in a ‘Big 6’ Position!!! She’s looking for the Crucifix Powerbomb!! Good run, Sierra, but looks like it’s over already!

Stew-O: AND WITH THE CRUCIFIX POWERBOMB! THE ‘BIG 6!’ SHE HITS IT! IT CONNECTS! Sierra is knocked out! BUT WHAT THE HELL? Domino does not go for the cover! What is she thinking of? She can just win there! 

(Domino rolls outside the ring, as she walks up to Ximena Velasquez, getting in her face once again. Ximena looks absolutely angry, but she doesn’t do anything to Domino who is taunting her in her face.)

Jake Mercer: Domino Stone is facing off with Ximena Velasquez again! She is taunting her again! What are you doing, Domino? Just pin Sierra already! 

Flannery McCoy: I don’t understand what Domino is thinking about, but she rolls back inside the ring- 

Stew-O: BUT SIERRA SUDDENLY LIFTS HER UP! THE BACKBREAKER RACK! WE KNOW WHAT’S HAPPENING… INTO A KNEE LIFT! THE ‘SELF DESTRUCTOR!’ SIERRA WITH THE ‘SELF DESTRUCTOR!’ SHE FALLS ONTO THE COVER!! DOMINO IS KNOCKED OUT! 

Referee: ONNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! 

TWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! 

THRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!! 

(DING! DING! DING!) 

(‘Odd Eye’ by DREAMCATCHER plays again through the speakers, as Sierra rolls off Domino, getting up with a smirk on her face. The Referee raises her hand in victory, as Ximena Velasquez rolls inside the ring clapping with a smiling expression.)

Stephie Love: HERE IS YOUR WINNER… SIIEEEEEERRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!! 

Stew-O: Domino Stone could have won this, but the tables turned out and Sierra could end this match as the winner. 

Flannery McCoy: I’m sure Domino had this win in the bag, but she ruined all of it for herself due to being cocky, allowing Sierra to pick this win. 

Jake Mercer: Congratulations to Sierra. Domino Stone showed out and nearly won this, but what happened just gave Sierra the advantage and she is now the winner. 

(A commercial is shown advertising a visit to Kabul, Afghanistan, starring Mr. DEDEDE.)

(Dynasty then comes back from commercial break to see Sierra making her way through the backstage area. She’s separated from Ximena and has taken a moment to collect herself while holding an ice pack on the back of her neck. She makes her way through the halls before being quickly turned around.)

Domino Stone: Look at you all hyped up. We know the truth about this whole entire thing and that’s the fact that you wouldn’t have won that match if it wasn’t for Sierra. You can act all proud about getting a victory at my expense all you want, but we know the truth. Sierra would’ve been nothing without Ximena Velasquez, and that would’ve been reflected in the ring if it was just me and you without any outside interference.

Sierra: Aww, look who’s mad!!! Look, it’s not my fault that you decided to badmouth Ximena. THAT cost you, it had nothing to do with me. You can make excuses for everything that you’ve done all you want, but I know the truth, and it’s that you’re simply just not on par with everything that you’ve said. Guess what? Which is exactly what I’ve been saying.

Domino Stone: You want to go for a round two and see-

???: WHOA! WHOA! LET’S CALM IT DOWN!

(The situation is turned down for the moment as both of them look towards the hallway to see Dynasty General Manager, StarrStan quickly run into the scene. He stands between them so nothing can happen while both Sierra and Domino stare at one another.)

StarrStan: Before you guys do anything, I have a proposal instead of this blowing up and escalating into a brawl. Here’s the deal, and both of you have to agree with me on this though I have no doubt that you will. How about… both of you work together?

Domino Stone: :dahell: Repeat that shit one more time?

Sierra: :comeagain:

StarrStan: NOT JUST YET! I promise that there’s more to this than you’d think. If you want the full details on it, next week, I invite both of you to meet me out in the ring for my idea proposal. Good luck.

(Starr pats both of them on the back before walking away from the scene. Sierra looks in disgust while Domino looks at Sierra.)

Domino Stone: See you soon, best friend.

(Domino then walks away, which is the last shot seen before Dynasty then begins to fade out to elsewhere from there.)

(Friday Night Dynasty fades into the backstage area and viewers can see the Interwire Champion, Bronson Daniels, making his way through the halls. While fans would usually be happy to see him on their screens, Bronson looks anything but pleased and like he’d much rather be out of the view of anyone! Bronson turns a corner, bumping into a garbage can and then kicking it over out of pure frustration! Garbage litters the floor and Bronson doesn’t look back, as he nearly collides with an unknown, backstage worker!)

Bronson Daniels: Man, move.

(Bronson sounds exasperated, the mix of frustration and disappointment clear on his face as he steps around the worker and continues on. The Interwire Title slung over his shoulder, Bronson lets out a heavy sigh as he approaches his locker room door and goes to make his way in until a hand latched onto his shoulder to stop him from going anywhere. Bronson brushes the hand off of him before turning around, still sounding in no mood to be met with having to speak to anyone.)

Bronson Daniels: Look, I wasn’t trying to take my frustrations out on you back there, but now you put your hands on me, and now you’re pushing your luck… Oh. And what do you want?

(As the camera turns, it comes upon the face of former Answers World Champion, Jack Ripley! Jack chuckles trying to ease the tension, knowing that he caught up to Bronson at a precarious time considering how The Visual Prophet’s choice to choose Andre Walker over him put Bronson in the position of seemingly having no Territorial Invasion plans, leaving Bronson on the outside looking in.)

Jack Ripley: Well, as it would turn out, I’m hearing that your Territorial Invasion weekend plans just got left wide open-

Bronson Daniels: Yeah, but by no choice of my own, Jack. Viz just hijacked my whole plan to defeat Andre Walker at Territorial Invasion and set the record straight, and everything about that, the way it’s got me feeling- the whole vibe about feeling like I just got passed over on when I’m the one as the Champion everyone’s looking to and damn sure not Xander Payne, well it’s not right! Sure, Andre beat me for the New Breed Championship last year, but that’s just the thing about all that – it was last year. Since then I’ve improved beyond comparison and people still wanna hold Andre to some higher regard or standard than me and somehow, someway that’s gotta change. I’m the one with the Championship, I’m the one with the most to offer knowing what I can do and how far I’d go to elevate this title and myself all at the same time; I should be the one getting all the praise and the big offers.

Jack Ripley: Look, you don’t need to rant to me about how you feel because I know from my own experiences what you’re going through. You wanted the biggest moment you could have for the Interwire Championship, the strongest competition, and what you thought would be another chance to really cement yourself further as Champion just got swept up away from you. It sucks, I know, but there’s more to it than just one match.

(Bronson hears that and he can’t help but look understandably confused – with all that he’s got weighing on his mind already, trying to figure out the meaning of that isn’t anywhere close to being a priority for him at the moment.)

Bronson Daniels: So you’re saying what, exactly? Because if you came to just give me a pep talk and a pat on the back, I’m good on that. I really don’t need anyone’s sympathy and I’m not looking to be the guy that people think needs to be pitied-

Jack Ripley: Before you get any ideas, this isn’t like that and not at all the way I wanted this whole conversation to go. So, that said, I’m going to save you the trouble of running your mouth and letting that ruin this opportunity I wanted to give you. You want to prove people wrong? Now’s your chance. Being Dynasty’s Team Captain for the Brand Warfare Match at Territorial Invasion, I need people going into that match with me who I know are driven, motivated, and more than willing to put in the work to achieve what they want no matter the circumstances. At Operation: Doomsday, I watched your match having anticipated that I’d be the one challenging you for that Interwire Championship, and the rules of your match that Jonny Airhart tried to capitalize on weren’t meant to favor you at all, but you pulled through and delivered as someone who knew what kind of pressure was on them should. That’s the kind of competition I’m looking to bring with me for this Brand Warfare Match.

Jack Ripley: I know we haven’t always seen eye to eye or ever considered ourselves friends, but none of that’s got to be anything that gets in the way for how I know we both have some respect for each other knowing what the other has been through. The way I see it, this is a great opportunity for you just as much as it is for me. The Interwire Champion representing this brand and doing it successfully like I know we’d be able to do, is something I would only think would definitely raise the stock of yourself and the Championship that you want to keep elevating.

(Bronson’s expression turns from one of confusion to one of intrigue by the end of what Jack has had to say, seemingly considering the offer that the former World Champion just presented him with and weighing his options. What could he possibly have to lose? If Jack sees something in him to be a worthwhile teammate, then it’s definitely something to really take into account.)

Bronson Daniels: I’m not gonna lie, you make some good points but after all the shit that went on between us last season and you being named the Team Captain for Territorial Invasion, right now this sounds like something you want me to do for you. Like you know you need me for that team right now more than anything. I can’t really blame you for wanting to come and try to get me on the team – I’m one of the best stars going right now, I’ve got plenty more to prove, and I know I’ve got the talent to do it all even if other people think I’m just someone to pass up on. But like I said, on the other hand, this proposal seems like something made to benefit you just so you don’t end up looking like a fool of a captain for not getting the best of the best on your team.

(Jack raises his hands just in front of himself, resembling a defensive stance to show he meant no underlying motives.)

Jack Ripley: I can get how you’d see that, but I wanna win and show I can be at the forefront leading Dynasty like I wanted to lead Showdown last season – people can’t say that’s not something I didn’t aim to do and make the effort to prove I could do that when I was the one making challenges and competing against stars on other brands to prove I could handle that pressure. And where you come in for all this, Bronson, is how I know you want to show you’re someone that this brand, and everyone on it and everyone watching, needs to take more notice of. The way I see it, we could both benefit from this to accomplish our goals – and if I’m working to get you on my side and on this team despite all the disagreements that went on between us, that alone should say more than enough about how I want this all to work out. And if a determined and hungry Interwire Champion is something Team Dynasty for this year’s War Games match wants to pass up on? I’d be more than happy to have you on my team.

(Jack nods his head reassuringly while Bronson doesn’t give anything away with his expression. But clearly, Ripley is hopeful and it can be seen that he’s serious about how he wants this to work out for everyone involved. Bronson slowly begins to nod his head, seemingly coming around to the idea of working with Jack.)

Bronson Daniels: Alright, alright. I know your job right now is to sell people on Dynasty’s chances of winning the Brand Warfare Match with you as the leader but you don’t have to keep doing the whole pitch thing to convince me. Viz took away my chance to prove what I wanted to against Andre for his own petty reasons, but there’s not shit I can do about that right now. It just pisses me off though because I know what I’m worth and what I can bring to the table in any match, it’s feeling like other people wanna doubt me or overlook what I’m doing like I can’t be better than Andre when that sure as hell isn’t true – but I know for damn sure that in a match like Brand Warfare that I can show just as much I’m a huge asset. So, you know what? You’ve got yourself a deal, Jack. Consider Bronson Daniels a part of Team Dynasty for Brand Warfare – everyone’s gonna see you made the right choice picking me.

(A grin shows up on Jack’s face as Bronson agrees to join him, the two of them shaking hands after Jack extends his to show his appreciation. Dynasty’s Team Captain walks off, obviously happy to have secured a competitor like Bronson to his team and feeling even better about his team’s chances to get the job done when the time comes. The camera pans back to Bronson watching Jack walk away and the Interwire Champion can be seen coming around to the idea of them working together even more and feeling like he made a good decision for himself just as much, before he turns to finally go into his locker room, the scene fading out.)

(Dynasty fades into the ringside area to show Stephie Love standing at the center of the ring with a smile on her face ready to announce the next match.)

Stephie Love: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is set for…

Crowd: ONE FALL!!!

(‘Act a Fool’ by Ludacris blasts through the speakers of the arena to loud boos that resound throughout the arena in response. It isn’t long before Jonny Airhart begins to make his way out to the stage with an UNO card in his mouth. He simply looks around with a serious look on his face before turning to the camera and beginning to trash talk, he winks before spitting the UNO card towards the camera as he makes his way down the ramp.)

Stephie Love: Introducing first… from Atherton, California… weighing in at 205 pounds… THE UNO CHAMP KID… JONNY AIRHART!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stew-O: Well last week, Jonny managed to get a victory over Envy Ellis to rebound off of a heartbreaking loss against Bronson Daniels for the Interwire Championship at Operation: Doomsday. While the aforementioned loss might’ve been hard for Jonny, there is no doubt that the charisma is back and he’s ready to get to work tonight. 

Flannery McCoy: Jonny knows the stakes and he knows especially that a victory like this could be big for him heading into a Free-Per-View like Territorial Invasion. We don’t exactly know what his future might entail at the tri-branded event, but no doubt he’ll be blazing a trail of fire heading into the Free-Per-View and it could possibly be an eye-opener to any team on this brand that is looking to recruit some fresh members.

Jake Mercer: I’m sorry, I’ve had this question for a while now, how am I supposed to take a kid who prides himself on having a UNO deck seriously? I mean come on now, he couldn’t beat BRONSON DANIELS of all people. Give me a reason to believe he’d be an asset ANYWHERE?! Exactly, that’s what I fucking thought. 

(‘BxMxC’ by BABYMETAL then hits as the boos begin to be replaced by thunderous cheers upon seeing Jack Ripley begin to make his way out to the stage with a big smile on his face. He looks around at the crowd, pointing around every so often before beginning to focus in on the ring. He eyes his opponent for a split second before raising his arms high in the air, pyro begins to shoot out from the stage while Jack smirks as he makes his way to the ring.)

Stephie Love: And his opponent… from Las Vegas, Nevada… weighing in at 202 pounds… THE STRAIGHT SHOOTER… JACK RIPLEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stew-O: Well we know things have definitely been looking up for Jack. Just last week StarrStan came out after Jack’s promo and gave him the opportunity to be the Team Captain for Friday Night Dynasty in the Brand Warfare match at Territorial Invasion. In the end it was Jack that accepted the offer and started building his team. Of course as you saw before the commercial break he did just that, enlisting the help of Bronson Daniels who accepted the offer after Andre Walker was confirmed for the WarGames matchup.

Flannery McCoy: It’s apparent that Jack’s team is only going to grow from there, but he needs to show right now that he’s a more than competent Team Captain, though I have no doubt that he’s going to do just that tonight. Jack is a man on a mission heading to Territorial Invasion, and a victory is necessary in order for him to solidify himself as well.

Jake Mercer: Now THIS is a man that I can take seriously. Someone with a deck of cards that doesn’t look like a child holding them, THE STRAIGHT SHOOTER! You know, I heard him and Donovan Duke from Voltage go way back from their gambling days. A part of me remembers him forming a team with him called The Low Riderz… probably just a dream I had.

(DING! DING! DING!)

Stew-O: Here we go, this match is officially underway! Both Jack and Jonny are making their way out of their corner, circling around the ring, both of them with determination in their eyes ready to get this match underway. Both of them are beginning to slowly make their way towards the ring, looking to start this match off properly with a test of strength. Both of them are slowly bringing their hands up, looking to engage in the collar-and-elbow. But immediately it’s Jonny that fakes it and grabs Jack by the head before ramming a knee into his abdomen! 

Flannery McCoy: Disrespect right out of the gate by the UNO Champion, Jack retreating backwards trying to recover but it’s apparent that he’s not going to take this so lightly once he’s back on track. Jonny with a smirk on his face beginning to make his way towards Jack, BUT IT’S JACK THAT RUNS FORWARD AND CONNECTS WITH A RUNNING FOREARM SMASH TO TAKE JONNY DOWN TO THE GROUND! Jonny drops down to the mat but quickly gets back up trying to make sure that Jack can’t capitalize on that surprise attack, BUT JACK ONCE AGAIN RUNS TOWARDS HIM AND CONNECTS WITH A TANDEM FOREARM SMASH TAKING HIM DOWN! Jonny sits up now, finding it slower to recover but still managing to prop himself up and quickly get back up to his feet. Jonny takes a swing, BUT IT’S JACK THAT DIPS UNDER AND TURNS JONNY AROUND BEFORE GRABBING HIS HEAD AND DROPPING HIM DOWN ONTO HIS NECK WITH A GERMAN SUPLEX! 

Jake Mercer: Jonny is taken down grabbing the back of his head, while Jack follows up quickly locking in a headlock and taking him back down to the ground! Jack has a grounded Headlock cinched in while Jonny waves his arms around trying to find a way out of the hold. Jack keeps a hold of him for as much as he can, making sure to weaken him while he has the chance to create an opening as this match goes on. Jonny slowly scooting towards the ropes, before bringing his leg up and barely touching the bottom rope forcing the referee to make his way over and break up the hold! Jack quickly pushes Jonny away while both of them get back up to their feet, JACK LEAPING INTO THE AIR AND GOING FOR A DROPKICK TO HIS CHEST!

Stew-O: But it’s Jonny that manages to push the leg away forcing Jack to drop down to the ground stomach first! That was a rough landing for Jack while he tries to get himself up to a knee, BUT IT’S JONNY THAT STEPS FORWARD AND CONNECTS WITH A BICYCLE KNEE STRIKE TOWARDS THE FACE OF JACK TO SEND HIM DOWN TO THE MAT! Jonny manages to get himself back into this match, but it always asks the question how long can he keep this going? Jonny grabbing Jack by his head and bringing him up to his feet, BEFORE GRABBING HIM BY HIS HEAD AND SLAMMING HIM AGAINST THE TOP TURNBUCKLE PADDING! Jonny pushes Jack into the corner, before sending a brutal European Uppercut towards his jaw! Jack is stunned momentarily, but it’s Jonny that grabs him by the arm and keeps the assault going, sending him towards the opposite corner. BEFORE RUNNING FORWARD AND CONNECTING WITH ANOTHER BRUTAL EUROPEAN UPPERCUT TOWARDS HIS JAW LEAVING JACK COMPLETELY LIMP FOR A MOMENT!

Flannery McCoy: Jack is definitely going to feel that next week, while he collapses down to a seated position in the corner. Already Jonny is beginning to tee off on him with stomps towards his chest, compacting him in the corner while Jack desperately tries to push Jonny’s leg away. Jonny is relentless though continuing to completely unload on him, making sure that Jack is backed up in a corner. The referee finally intervenes and once again telling them to back up again, Jonny holding his hands up in innocence while Jack tries to catch his breath while he has the chance. BUT IT’S JONNY THAT RUNS FORWARD AND SENDS A KNEE STRIKE TOWARDS HIS FACE TRYING TO CATCH HIM COMPLETELY OFF GUARD! 

Jake Mercer: But it’s Jack that manages to barely pull himself away from the corner using the bottom rope! Jack retreating away, shaking his head and trying to recover while Jonny tries to shake off colliding with the corner at full speed. Jonny turns around in anger and makes his way towards Jack, grabbing him by his hair and bringing him back up to his feet. ATTEMPTING TO THROW HIM INTO THE RINGPOST SHOULDERFIRST! BUT JACK MANAGES TO USE HIS LEG BEFORE JONNY CAN THROW HIM AT FULL FORCE TO TRIP HIM DOWN TO THE GROUND! Jonny unexpectedly lands hard, BEFORE JACK LEAPS INTO THE AIR AND CONNECTS WITH A DOUBLE FOOT STOMP TO HIS UPPER BODY! 

Stew-O: Jack slides down to the canvas, shaking his head for a moment and taking a breather while he has the chance, because it’s not going to be long before Jonny finds his way back up to his feet. Jonny begins to make his way up to his feet, the stunned look on his face tells it all, he wasn’t expecting Jack to have him scouted so abruptly. Jonny stumbles towards Jack while Jack gets up to his feet, trying to swing a wild punch before Jack can continue any further! BUT IT’S JACK THAT STEPS FORWARD AND SENDS A BIG BOOT TOWARDS HIS FACE TO DROP HIM DOWN TO A KNEE! Jack quickly grabbing ahold of his head and popping him up, BEFORE MANHANDLING HIM AND DROPPING HIM DOWN ONTO HIS HEAD WITH A BRUTAL BRAINBUSTER!

Flannery McCoy: Jonny grabbing his head in pain, the best he can do is bring himself up to a seated position but that’s not going to be enough to fend off the ongoing assault of the Dynasty Brand Warfare Team Captain. Jack running to the ropes and back, BEFORE SENDING A PENALTY KICK TOWARDS THE FACE OF JONNY! Jonny grabs his head and drops down to the mat, not willing to risk any more damage making sure that he rolls out of the ring before the situation gets any worse for him! Jack is up to his feet, eyeing Jonny while he gets back up to his feet. BEFORE JACK RUNS TO THE ROPES AND LOOKS TO GO FOR A SUICIDE DIVE TO THE OUTSIDE TO TAKE HIM DOWN TO THE MAT! 

Jake Mercer: BUT JONNY MANAGES TO RECOVER JUST IN TIME TO SEND A STIFF PUNCH TOWARDS THE SKULL OF JACK BEFORE HE CAN LAUNCH THROUGH THE ROPES! Jack is draped over the middle rope for a moment while Jonny pushes him back into the ring and begins to climb up to the top rope. JONNY LEAPING OFF THE TOP ROPE AND CONNECTING WITH A MOONSAULT TO CRUSH JACK RIPLEY RIGHT WHERE HE LAYS! Jonny hooks the leg going for a quick and easy pin attempt!

OOONNNEEE!!!

TTTTWWWWWOOOOO-

Stew-O: But Jack gets the shoulder up quickly! It should be common sense, but it’s going to take a lot more to keep Jack Ripley down for the count. Jonny knows what kind of challenge that he’s up against this time around, I’m sure he’s eager to make a statement by pinning a former Answers World Champion and staking a claim for the future. But Jack isn’t going to go down too easily, and Jonny knows that while grabbing him by his hair once again and dragging him back up to his feet. Jonny attempts to go for an uppercut towards his jaw, but it’s Jack that manages to muster out the strength to send a sharp elbow towards his head! Jonny is sent back for a moment, but immediately steps forward and sends a barrage of forearm strikes towards his face! Jack is stunned trying to block as many as he can, but ultimately Jonny is getting the best of him forcing him to drop down to a knee! Jonny running to the ropes and back looking to take down Jack swiftly!

Flannery McCoy: BUT IT’S JACK THAT MANAGES TO GET UP TO HIS FEET AND SEND A THRUST KICK TOWARDS HIS FACE TO TAKE HIM DOWN TO THE GROUND! Jack drops down to the ground in exhaustion while Jonny is taken out for the time being. Jack is looking up at the lights while Jonny grabs his face trying to shake off the pain that has been inflicted courtesy of ‘The Straight Shooter’ throughout this match. Jack begins to make his way up to his feet, slowly showing signs of life while taking a few deep breaths to collect himself. Despite him obviously sweeping the challenge of Jonny Airhart under the rug, Jack knows that he’s going to be a very persistent individual. He’s going to be one tough cookie to keep down especially in a match of this capacity for someone like him. 

Jake Mercer: As stated before, Jonny knows the stakes and he knows that he has to crush it to make a statement, especially coming off of a loss like the one he came off at Operation: Doomsday. Jonny begins to make his way up to his feet, still showing some fighter spirit and pushing through all the pain that he surely must be feeling right now. BUT JACK ISN’T LETTING HIM CATCH A BREAK, GRABBING HIM AND GOING FOR A SWIFT BELLY-TO-BELLY SUPLEX TO DROP HIM DOWN TO THE GROUND! 

Stew-O: BUT JONNY HAS THE EYES! JONNY RAKING THE EYES OF JACK AND FORCING HIM TO LET GO OF THE HOLD! Jack stumbles back grabbing his face, it appears that the referee hasn’t seen it and Jonny is taking advantage of that. JONNY GRABBING HIM AND DROPPING HIM DOWN WITH A JAWBREAKER! Jack manages to keep himself upwards though, trying to retreat away! BUT JONNY GRABS HIM AND TAKES HIM DOWN WITH A RIPCORD LARIAT! JONNY DROPPING DOWN AND HOOKING THE LEG ON JACK! COULD JONNY TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE CHEAP TACTICS THAT HE USED AND GET POSSIBLY GET THE BIGGEST VICTORY OF HIS CAREER RIGHT HERE?! 

OOONNNEEE!!!

TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!

TTTTTTHHHHHHHRRRRRRRRRRRREEE-

Flannery McCoy: BUT NOT JUST YET JONNY! JACK MANAGES TO GET THE SHOULDER UP AS THIS MATCH CONTINUES! Jonny sitting up, feeling the effects but he’s still pushing on knowing that he has ways to go in this matchup. Jack is attempting to crawl to the ropes and hold onto them to help himself up to his feet, but the disrespect is beginning to show by Jonny as he steps on his hand! You can see the cocky grin on Jonny’s face while he spreads his arms out, he’s eating this up while the crowd boos the hell out of him! 

Jake Mercer: He’s forced to let go though, Jack gripping onto the ropes for dear life trying to make sure that he creates some separation between him and Jonny. Jack begins to help himself up to his feet, bringing himself up to a kneeling position and attempting to compose himself. BUT JONNY RUNS FORWARD AND SENDS A KNEE STRIKE TO THE SIDE OF HIS HEAD! Jack is stunned for the moment while Jonny grabs him by his arm and pulls him into an Irish whip towards the opposite pair of ropes, CATCHING HIM WITH A RUNNING LARIAT TOWARDS HIS HEAD TO TAKE HIM DOWN TO THE MAT! 

Stew-O: Jack is finding it hard to recover after that brutal Ripcord Lariat by Jonny, and Jonny knows that it’s something that he has to take advantage of if he wants to get the better of Jack in this matchup. Jonny makes his way towards Jack and grabs him by his head before bringing him up to his feet, this time sending him into an Irish whip towards the turnbuckle padding! JONNY RUNNING FORWARD AND GOING FOR A CLOTHESLINE! BUT IT’S JACK THAT MANAGES TO STEP OUT OF THE CORNER AND SEND JONNY INTO THE TURNBUCKLE PADDING WITH A BIG RELEASE BELLY-TO-BELLY SUPLEX!

Flannery McCoy: Jonny completely decimated against the corner, you know that had to hurt him. But the biggest part about this is the fact that Jack Ripley is furthermore back into this match. Jack wasting zero time grabbing Jonny and bringing him up to his feet, JONNY ATTEMPTING TO SWING TOWARDS JACK TO TAKE HIM BY SURPRISE! BUT JACK MANAGES TO DUCK UNDER ONCE AGAIN AND GRAB HIM BEFORE LIFTING HIM AND DROPPING HIM DOWN ON HIS HEAD WITH A BACK SUPLEX!

Jake Mercer: Jack pulling himself up to a knee, you can tell that Jonny is completely out of the look but he continues to persevere through all the wretched punishment. Jonny is dragging himself up, clutching onto the ropes, but it’s Jack that makes his way over and grabs his arm before sending him to the ropes! QUICKLY TAKING HIM DOWN TO THE MAT WITH AN ARM DRAG! Jack is trying to inflict as much damage as he can so a victory in this match can be a done deal for him. Jonny pulls himself up to a knee once again, still feeling the effects but hoping to counter out of this. BUT IT’S JACK THAT RUNS FORWARD GOING FOR DAYLIGHT SLAYING TIME! RUNNING KNEE STRIKE TO THE HEAD OF JONNY!

Stew-O: But Jonny manages to save himself by barely avoiding the knee strike to his face! Jonny stumbles up to his feet while Jack turns around, JONNY JUMPING UP ONTO THE SHOULDERS OF JACK AND DRIVING HIS HEAD INTO THE CANVAS WITH A FRANKENSTEINER! Jonny pops right back up to his feet, and you can see that he’s feeling it now. He’s not letting Jack get the better of him and he’s pulling all the stops to prevent that right now! Jonny makes his way over and grabs Jack by his head before pulling him up to his feet. BEFORE GRABBING HIM AND ONCE AGAIN GOING FOR ANOTHER RIPCORD LARIAT ATTEMPT TOWARDS THE HEAD OF JACK!

Flannery McCoy: BUT JACK MANAGES TO DUCK UNDER THAT AND PUT JONNY UP ON HIS SHOULDERS, SLAMMING HIM FACE FIRST INTO THE TURNBUCKLE WITH A LAWN DART! RUNNING SNAKE EYES BY JACK USING ALL THE ENERGY THAT HE HAS LEFT IN HIS BODY BEFORE ROLLING JONNY OVER ONTO HIS BACK AND HOOKING THE LEG FOR THE PIN ATTEMPT! COULD THIS SPELL THE END OF THE MATCH RIGHT HERE?!

OOONNNEEE!!!

TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!

TTTTTHHHHHRRRRRRRRRREEE-

Jake Mercer: JONNY GETS THE SHOULDER UP JUST IN TIME! Jonny manages to stay alive and Jack is giving more of a sigh of relief than a sign of frustration, his chances aren’t at jeopardy as much as they were with Jonny taking full control of this match. Jonny is down but he’s quickly getting back up to his feet, Jack knows what to do though. JACK RUNNING FORWARD AND GOING FOR A CLOTHESLINE! BUT JONNY MANAGES TO CONNECT WITH A DROP TOE HOLD SENDING JACK’S FACE TOWARDS THE MIDDLE TURNBUCKLE! Jonny managing to preserve his chances for the moment while Jack is trying to help himself using the turnbuckles to prop himself up, BUT BEFORE HE CAN DO ANYTHING HE’S MET WITH A RUNNING EUROPEAN UPPERCUT TOWARDS HIS JAW! 

Stew-O: Jonny connects with the move and begins to move back while Jack attempts to shake the pain off for the moment. Jonny begins to run forward while Jack is backed up against the corner, GOING FOR A BIG CORNER CLOTHESLINE TOWARDS HIS FACE! But it’s Jack that manages to slip through the middle rope and onto the apron forcing Jonny to collide with the turnbuckle padding! Jonny tries to recuperate to the best of his abilities, but it’s Jack that sends a forearm smash to his face sending him backwards! Jack makes his way up to the top rope and sets himself up while Jonny is attempting to recover. But it’s Jonny that manages to grab ahold of the top rope and shake them, nearly tripping Jack and dropping him down to a seated position on the top turnbuckle!

Flannery McCoy: Now this isn’t looking good, Jonny is about to join Jack on the top turnbuckle! Jonny climbed up to the top with Jack, before sending repeated forearm shots towards the face of Jack hoping to weaken him! Jack attempts to block as much as he can, sending punches of his own whenever there’s an opening! Both of them are going all in, especially in the position that they find themselves in on the top turnbuckle! JONNY STEPPING UP AND SENDING A KNEE TO THE FACE OF JACK! Jack is completely stunned while Jonny begins to set him up, LOOKING TO GO FOR A BIG SUPERPLEX TO DROP JACK DOWN TO THE MAT!

Jake Mercer: But not before Jack manages to send shots towards the abdomen of Jonny! Jonny is struggling to keep a hold of Jack especially with the pain that he’s been going through in this match! Jonny is finally forced to let go, BEFORE JACK GRABS HIM BY HIS HEAD AND SHOVES HIM OFF THE TOP ROPE! Jack steadily begins to recollect himself and stand on the top, a hard fall by Jonny as he’s clearly feeling the hurt right now. Jack sees the opportunity present itself and now I think we know what he might be going for right here! SETTING JONNY UP!

Stew-O: BELIEVE IT OR NOT! SHOOTING STAR PRESS CRUSHES JONNY BENEATH HIM! JONNY COUGHING UP AIR TRYING TO RECOVER BUT JACK IS TAKING ADVANTAGE QUICKLY ROLLING JONNY ONTO HIS BACK AND HOOKING THE LEG! PIN ATTEMPT INCOMING! WILL THIS BE IT FOR THIS MATCH?!

OOONNNEEE!!!

TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!

TTTTTHHHHHHRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!

(DING! DING! DING!)

(‘BxMxC’ blasts through the speakers of the arena while Jack Ripley pulls himself up to a seated position grabbing his head in pain. He takes a few deep breaths to collect himself, still feeling the pain but recovering enough to muster out the strength to get back up to his feet. The referee begins to make their way over and raises Jack’s hand in the air, while Jack smiles and begins to make his way up to the top rope. He points around at the fans who go berserk for him after his victory before jumping down and circling around the ring, continuing his celebration from there.)

Stephie Love: Ladies and gentlemen, here is your winner… JACK RIPLEY!!!!!!!!!!

Flannery McCoy: What a match that we’ve been able to witness tonight! Both competitors gave it their all in a must-win situation for both of them. They knew the stakes on the line and knew that this victory was the one that each of them desired to get on track, especially heading into a Free-Per-View like Territorial Invasion. In the end though only one could come out on top despite their similar desires, and that turned out to be Jack Ripley. 

Stew-O: The Captain of Team Dynasty for Brand Warfare proving that StarrStan couldn’t have made a better choice in the long run. Jack is here and he’s ready to lead his team to victory one way or another, in the end every week he gets one step closer and this week he just racked up a much needed victory. Congratulations to Jack Ripley!

(Jonny leaves the ring in pain, trying to shake himself off and fight through it but ultimately he’s more pissed off than anything else. He helps himself up using the barricade and eyes Jack who continues his celebration. Both of their eyes catch one another, and after a tense staredown, Jack nods as a sign of respect before rolling out of the ring. Jack stands at the bottom of the ramp, raising his hands once again high in the air, before making his way up the ramp which is the last shot seen before Dynasty then begins to fade out to elsewhere.)

(A commercial is shown for the World Heavyweight Championship match between Xander Payne and Andrea Valentine at Territorial Invasion.)

(‘Faneto’ by Chief Keef hits, as the crowd boos heavily. After a moment, Sosa Henderson steps out onto the stage wearing some shades and a leather jacket. He has a diamond chain that reads “BULLETPROOF”. It shines brightly, as the crowd continues to boo him on his way down to the ring.)

Stephie Love: The Following match is a tag team bout set for.. ONE FALL!! And it is your main event of the evening!!! Introducing first.. From Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.. Weighing in at 191lbs.. HE IS BULLETPROOF!! SOSA HENDERSON!!!

Stew-O: Here we go! Main Event time here on Friday Night Dynasty.

Flannery McCoy: This is a big match for Sosa. Last week he defeated a fellow former world champion and reigning tag team champion, Xavier Williams… This week he gets to compete against three individuals who have world title aspirations just like himself.

Jake Mercer: But tonight he has to team with Viz.. Someone who he hasn’t seen eye to eye with in the past, but we’ll see what they can do as they face the World Heavyweight Champion and his number one contender.

(‘Voodoo Chile (Slight Return)’ by Jimi Hendrix hits, as the crowd erupts into cheers. After a moment, The Visual Prophet steps out onto the stage wearing a VPLA T-Shirt that displays faces of the numerous students and children that attend the VPLA. Viz flexes out, and then points at his shirt, as he continues down the ramp and towards the ring.)

Stephie Love: And his opponent.. He is the Founder of the Visual Prophet Leadership Academy!! THE VISUAL PROPHET!!

Stew-O: And here he comes!! The captain for Dynasty in War Games, The Visual Prophet!! Viz has a huge task in proving his worth as the captain of Team Dynasty, but if he succeeds by doing his best, he’ll be rewarded with a World Heavyweight Championship match that could be against one of his two opponents.

Flannery McCoy: That’s right, Stew. Viz and D’Angelo made it clear last week that they wanted to get what they deserved and are owed from StarrStan. At least this way, he can almost certainly say he’ll get his shot. This is going to be a big match for Viz seeing how he can set the tone and let both potential opponents know what’s coming their way if they hold the World Heavyweight Championship in the near future.

(‘Roll With Me’ by Charli XCX hits, as the crowd cheers heavily. Andrea Valentine steps out onto the stage and raises her hands out to wave to the crowd. She’s wearing a blue attire with black trim. Andrea makes her way down the entrance ramp and high fives her cheering fans on her way down to the ring.)

Stephie Love: And their opponent.. First, from Orlando, Florida.. Weighing in at 110lbs.. She is ANDREA VALENTINE!!!

Stew-O: Andrea Valentine has to team up with Xander Payne once again this week.. After what happened at the end of last week’s show, I don’t know how that is physically possible.

Flannery McCoy: Yeah, they won last week against Bronson Daniels and Andre Walker, but this time it’s different seeing how Xander cheap shotted her after the match and told her she isn’t getting anymore respect from him. Now here they are.. Set to team with one another.. I’m curious to see how this turns out.

(‘It Follows’ by Cane Hill hits, as the crowd boos heavily. After a moment, Xander Payne steps out onto the stage with the EAW World Heavyweight Championship resting on his shoulder. Xander raises his World Heavyweight Championship in the air, and stares at all three of the individuals in the ring, as he knows that they all want what he has in his hands. He then lowers the title, and walks down the entrance ramp with absolute confidence.)

Stephie Love: And her partner.. From Toronto, Ontario, Canada.. Weighing in at 253lbs.. He is PAYNE KILLER!! XANDER PAYNE!!

Stew-O: Now I’m curious to see how Xander approaches this match after what happened last week.

Flannery McCoy: I think we all are, but I also think that Xander Payne probably wants to come into this match and set an example for all three of the other Elitists involved. This is going to be a big match for him since everyone is gunning for him. Let’s see what the champion does.

(DING! DING! DING!)

Stew-O: There’s the bell, and this main event match of the evening is underway! We’re starting off with an Operation: Doomsday rematch, as Xander Payne and Sosa Henderson make their way over to the center of the ring, as The Visual Prophet and Andrea Valentine remain in their corner. You can just sense the tension between both Sosa Henderson and Xander Payne who just went to war against one another just two weeks ago for the World Heavyweight Championship. For someone like Xander, this would be the perfect opportunity to demonstrate to Andrea what’s coming her way in the near future.. Whereas with Sosa, this is a great chance to show that his name needs to remain with the top contenders and even the world champion himself, as he is right at that level.

Flannery McCoy: But here we go!! The tension elevated and immediately turned into a strong right hand by Sosa Henderson!! That right handed punch is responded to by a right hook from Xander Payne!!! Left hook by Henderson!! Xander now responds with a right jab!! Both of these Elitists are trading punches right now in the center of the ring!!

Stew-O: Well it’s clear to see that these two still don’t like each other, as each punch is being thrown with some emotion behind it!! Xander with another strike! Now it’s Sosa!!! Back to Xander!!! Now another strike from Sosa!!! Xander!! Sosa!!! Xander!! Sosa!! Sosa!!! Sosa with three consecutive right hooks to Xander Payne’s head, as Xander stumbles back against the side ropes!! Sosa Henderson quickly grabs Xander by the wrist now, as he whips him hard towards the ropes at the other end!! Xander Payne hits the ropes, then bounces back!!

Flannery McCoy: He’s moving with tons of speed, as Sosa drops chest down to the canvas!! Xander runs past the body of Sosa Henderson, as he hits the ropes on the other side!! Sosa pops up to his feet.. TORNADO KICK!!

Jake Mercer: NOBODY HOME!!! Xander Payne managed to hang onto the top rope to prevent himself from rebounding back into that Tornado kick by Sosa Henderson!! A smirk grows on the face of Xander Payne now, as Sosa faces him, crutches low into an athletic stance, and tells him to come here!!

Stew-O: That tornado kick definitely would have rocked Xander Payne, but it seems like Sosa has more in store for the World Heavyweight Champion!! Xander Payne quickly charges in at Sosa Henderson with a running lariat!!! No!! Sosa ducks his head underneath the arm, as Xander Payne runs right past him!! Payne turns around.. ROUNDHOUSE KICK BY SOSA!!!

Flannery McCoy: NO!! Xander Payne ducks underneath the leg of Sosa, as Sosa turns all the way around! His back is turned to Xander Payne, as Xander grabs a hold of Henderson! He lifts him up in the air on his shoulders!!! It looks like Xander is going for the inverted ushigoroshi!!!

Jake Mercer: NO!! Sosa Henderson rotates his body, hooks the arms of Xander Payne with his own arms and legs.. AND HE PINS XANDER PAYNE DOWN TO THE CANVAS OF THE RING WITH A CRUCIFIX STYLE PIN OUT OF NOWHERE!!!

ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

TWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

THHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHRRRRRRRR-

Stew-O: But there’s the kick out by Xander Payne!! Sosa quickly works up to his hands and knees, then back up to-

Flannery McCoy: XANDER QUICKLY GOT UP TOO, AND SHOVED SOSA HENDERSON ACROSS THE RING!!! Sosa quickly works up to his feet, and charges in at Xander Payne!!! BUT XANDER QUICKLY DROPS SOSA HENDERSON BACK DOWN TO THE CANVAS WITH A HEADBUTT THAT LANDS DIRECTLY INTO THE CHEST OF SOSA HENDERSON!!! Xander clutches at his forehead, as he definitely felt that one too. He turns towards Andrea Valentine, then makes his way over to her for the tag!

TAG!

Stew-O: Here comes Andrea Valentine, as she steps through the ropes and begins to make her way over to Sosa Henderson who is working his way up to his hands and knees. Andrea quickly stomps down onto the right leg of Henderson, then grabs him by the head, and brings him up to his feet. Andrea Valentine now with an irish whip to the far ropes!! Sosa runs hard, hits the ropes, bounces back.. SPINNING BACKFIST BY ANDREA VALENTINE!!!

Jake Mercer: NO!! Sosa Henderson baseball slides himself out of the way and past Andrea!! He pops back up to his feet behind her.. He quickly charges towards Valentine, then wraps his arms around her waist!! BACK SUPLEX BY SOS-

Stew-O: NO!! Andrea grabs a hold of the top ropes, and she’s fighting off that back suplex!! Sosa tries to lower his body to get more leverage, but Andrea remains hanging on tightly to that top rope!! Sosa now releases Andrea.. THEN STOMPS RIGHT BEHIND THE KNEE OF THE CURRENT NUMBER ONE CONTENDER, AS SHE DROPS DOWN TO THAT RIGHT KNEE!!! Andrea Valentine slowly works back up to her feet.. BUT THAT JUST ALLOWS SOSA TO RE-GRIP, AND HE LIFTS HER IN THE AIR FOR A BACK SUPLEX!!!

Jake Mercer: NO!!! Andrea Valentine flips in mid air, and lands on her feet behind Sosa Henderson!!! Sosa quickly turns around.. RUNNING LARIAT BY SOSA!!!

Flannery McCoy: BUT ANDREA DROPS INTO THE SPLITS, AND POPS BACK UP TO HER FEET!! What an incredible way to dodge that clothesline!! Sosa quickly turns around and charges back at Andrea!!! BUT HE GETS HIT BY A BACK ELBOW TO THE BRIDGE OF THE NOSE!!!

Stew-O: Sosa Henderson is clutching at his face in pain, as he staggers back. Meanwhile, Andrea is running to the far ropes!! She rebounds back towards Henderson!! BACK HANDSPRING BY ANDREA!!! INTO AN ELBOW SMASH ACROSS THE FACE OF SOSA HENDERSON!!! That elbow smash drops Henderson, and this Arkansas crowd is going wild for Andrea Valentine!!

Flannery McCoy: Andrea now looks to a neutral corner, and begins to make her way over to it. Valentine is climbing her way up to the top rope now, as it seems like she wants to go for something high risk. She stands up on the top rope now, as she stares down at Henderson who is slowly working up to his hands and knees.. He’s now getting up to his feet, as Andrea leaps into the air!!! DIVING CROSSBODY BY ANDREA VALENTINE!!!

Jake Mercer: SPEAR!!! SOSA HENDERSON LOADED UP AT THE LAST POSSIBLE MOMENT, THEN LAUNCHED HIMSELF TOWARDS THE FALLING ANDREA VALENTINE WITH A SPEAR!!! Andrea might have been broken in half with that one!!! Both her and Sosa Henderson are down!!

Stew-O: Andrea might need to get herself out of there with a tag to Xander Payne. That spear is one of Sosa Henderson’s best moves, and it will take so much out of you.. Likewise, Henderson has been in this match for a minute, and a fresh Visual Prophet would do wonders for their team right now. It looks like both Elitists are trying to crawl their way over to their team’s corners to make the necessary tag!! Who will get their first between these two!?

Flannery McCoy: Both Andrea and Sosa are stretching themselves out and reaching out as far as they can to make the tag!! They are both so close..

TAG!

Stew-O: That’s to Big Viz!! The Visual Prophet has just entered into the ring, and he sprints his way over to Andrea Valentine!! Wait what’s this!?!

Flannery McCoy: It looks like The Visual Prophet just ran in between Andrea Valentine and Xander Payne!! Viz turns his head over his shoulder, and winks at the World Heavyweight Champion before crouching down and staring at Andrea Valentine!! Andrea lifts her head up, as The Visual Prophet gives her the good ol’ Mutombo Finger wag!! Viz now grabs Andrea and brings her up to her feet!!

Stew-O: What’s this!?! AND NOW VIZ LIFTS HER UP IN THE AIR, AND BEGINS PRESSING THE NUMBER ONE CONTENDER LIKE SHE’S A BARBELL AT THE GYM!! ONE!! TWO!! THREE!! FOUR!! FIVE REPS BY BIG VIZ!!!

Jake Mercer: The Visual Prophet.. The son of Ronnie Coleman.

Flannery McCoy: Wait.. Viz is related to Ronnie Coleman now?

Jake Mercer: You saw what Viz looked like two years ago.. You don’t get that big and strong in two years unless you’ve got those Ronnie Coleman genetics!!

Flannery McCoy: Why do I even ask? Anyways, let’s focus back on this match, because now Viz has Andrea Valentine resting on his shoulders. He’s in the center of the ring, and begins to squat with her on his shoulders!! Once he completes two squats, he begins to spin!! THAT’S AIR BAE!!! ONE!!! TWO!! THREE!! FOUR!! FIVE!! SIX!! SEVEN!! EIGHT!! NINE!! TEN ROTATIONS!!!

Stew-O: The Visual Prophet now sets Andrea Valentine back to her feet, as she can barely hold her balance due to how dizzy she became from that airplane Air Bae by The Visual Prophet! The Visual Prophet now runs to the far ropes!! He bounces back.. AND SENDS ANDREA VALENTINE DOWN TO THE CANVAS OF THE RING WITH A RUNNING SHOULDER BLOCK!! That Shoulder block sent Andrea flying across the ring, as she lands by the side ropes!

Flannery McCoy: And here goes Viz!! He’s getting the crowd on their feet, as he raises his arms in the air, then slowly lowers them as he shimmies while his arms get lowered. Viz makes his way over to Xander Payne, and.. What’s this!?! CHEST POP!! Viz is doing a pec dance in front of Xander, as his muscular chest begins to move back and forth in front of Xander Payne!! After a few seconds, The Visual Prophet stops, then smiles back at Xander!!

The Visual Prophet: (Off Mic) Your turn champ :smugcena:

(Xander Payne is seen rolling his eyes and leaning back away from the ring, as he knows he doesn’t have the chest muscle to do a pec dance like The Visual Prophet. If anything, Xander Payne looks annoyed at the fact that The Visual Prophet is standing in front of him at all. Viz smiles at Xander, goes back into pec dancing to show off, then turns back around.)

Stew-O: Andrea Valentine is down on her hands and knees. She’s using the side ropes to help get herself up to her feet. However, once she’s there, it’s The Visual Prophet who grabs a hold of her by the head, and takes back down to the canvas of the ring with a snapmare!! Andrea is now in a seated position near the center of the ring, as The Visual Prophet gets back up to his feet, and tags in Sosa Henderson!!

TAG!

Flannery McCoy: Sosa Henderson enters into the ring, and sees the position Andrea Valentine is in!! SINGLE LEG DROPKICK TO THE BACK BY SOSA HENDERSON!! Andrea falls off to her side, and arches her back in pain after that brutal dropkick by Sosa!!!

Stew-O: The Visual Prophet and Sosa Henderson have faced each other so many times now, that I’m pretty sure Viz understands that Sosa likes to hit that Single Leg Dropkick while his opponent is in that seated position, and that’s why he tagged Sosa in when he did. Being the Captain of Team Dynasty’s War Games Team is very fitting for Viz seeing how he can learn and understand his teammate’s strengths and weaknesses pretty easily. An attribute like that will only benefit Team Dynasty by the time Territorial Invasion comes around.

Jake Mercer: Viz is a true leader.. Just look at how he’s making fellow African Americans flourish in the Visual Prophet Leadership Academy. Whatever this man touches turns to gold, and that’s what we need for Team Dynasty!

Flannery McCoy: Back to the action inside of the ring. It looks like Sosa Henderson is having fun right now, as he delivers a powerful stomp down onto the shoulder of Andrea Valentine that turns her onto her back! Sosa now with another stomp!! This time it’s to her stomach, as Valentine pops up to a seated position!! However, Sosa Henderson sends her back down in an instant with a knee strike to the face!!! Andrea lays flat on her back, as she stares up at the ceiling. Meanwhile, Sosa Henderson makes his way over to the side ropes where he steps out and onto the ring apron. What does Sosa Henderson have in mind here?! He’s pulling back on that top rope.. This can’t be good for Andrea!! SLINGSHOT DOUBLE FOOTSTOMP INTO THE MIDSECTION OF ANDREA VALENTINE!!!

Stew-O: Sosa Henderson just drilled his boots into the stomach of Valentine, and now she begins to roll towards the center of the ring while clutching at her midsection in pain!! That is a 191lbs athlete dropping his entire body weight into one specific and vulnerable spot on the body!! Sosa makes his way over to Andrea, turns her on her back, then hooks the legs!!

ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

TWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

THHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHRRRRRRRR-

Stew-O: And there’s the kick out by Andrea Valentine!!

Flannery McCoy: That was a close one!! However, it’s going to take much more than that to overcome the resilience of Andrea Valentine.

Jake Mercer: When you say much more, does a Sharpshooter count? :lupe:

Flannery McCoy: We’ll see, because it looks like that is exactly what Sosa Henderson is going for!! Henderson is back to his feet, and has a hold of both of Andrea Valentine’s legs!! He’s trying to turn her over, but she’s using every ounce of strength that she has to prevent him from locking in this shar-

Stew-O: SOSA JUST STOMPED RIGHT DOWN INTO THE MIDSECTION OF ANDREA VALENTINE!!! HE NOW INTERLOCKS HIS LEGS WITH HERS, TURNS HER OVER.. AND THE SHARPSHOOTER IS LOCKED IN!!!

Flannery McCoy: Andrea is in tremendous pain right now, and you can hear it in her voice as she begins to scream at the top of her lungs!! She’s clutching at her blonde hair, trying to figure a way out of this!!

Stew-O: In most cases during tag team action, the partner would normally come out to break up the submission if it’s as painful and punishing as this Sharpshooter that Sosa Henderson has locked in, but it looks like Xander Payne wants nothing to do with helping Andrea Valentine! He’s just watching from their corner, and simply just letting it happen in front of him!

Flannery McCoy: Well if you can remember.. Last week, he said his match with Andrea was the last dose of respect that he would show to her. No more respect shall be shown from Xander Payne towards Andrea Valentine, and I believe that statement still stands even if they are teamed up with each other for the second week in a row.

Stew-O: It’s sickening if you ask me, Flannery. I’m sure you agree, but to let your own partner struggle in a painful submission hold the way he is letting Andrea struggle in that sharpshooter doesn’t sit well with me.

Jake Mercer: You two are looking at it all wrong. Xander Payne already said he doesn’t care about Andrea. He’s said she’s nothing less than the enemy, so that’s how he is going to treat her even if they are partners. You both heard what Viz said last week. Though it may not be true, he said that the spinebuster through the barricade on Sosa Henderson during the first week of the season is what gave Xander Payne the edge over him at Operation: Doomsday.. If Xander can wear down Andrea Valentine and have her broken and beaten before they have their title match, then that’s an advantage he would surely take, because that would only increase his chances of remaining EAW World Heavyweight Champion like he says he will.

Flannery McCoy: I don’t see how he can be like this!?! Andrea is screaming at the top of her lungs right now, and nearly about to tap out.. However, I don’t think she has it in her to tap out knowing that her future opponent is watching from her own corner!! Andrea is being extremely stubborn to not give up, but that might be the best option for her right now!!

Stew-O: Wait a second, Flannery. Look at that!! Andrea has her forearms underneath her body, and now she is slowly army crawling her way over to the side ropes!! She’s inching her way over to the ropes, as Sosa Henderson does small back pedals with her!! Andrea is almost there!! She’s reaching!! Her arm is extended out and.. SHE GRABS THE ROPES!!!!

Flannery McCoy: Wait!! But Sosa Henderson isn’t releasing his grip on Andrea!! Sosa still has Andrea locked in that sharpshooter!! He’s wrenching on her back, and she begins to scream even louder, as the crowd begins to boo heavily at the actions of Henderson!! The referee has no choice but to count in order to get Henderson off of Andrea!!

Referee: One.. Two.. Three.. Four.. Fi-

Stew-O: And Henderson releases the Sharpshooter!! He raises his hands to the referee to show that he has let go of the hold.. THEN INSTANTLY STOMPS DOWN ONTO THE BACK OF THE DEFENSELESS ANDREA VALENTINE!!! This Arkansas crowd boos even louder, as Sosa Henderson makes his way over to The Visual Prophet. Viz extends his hand out, and the two make the tag!!

TAG!

Jake Mercer: The Visual Prophet steps into the ring, and makes his way over to Andrea Valentine who looks like she’s in rough shape by the side ropes of the ring. Viz reaches down, grabs Andrea Valentine, then brings her up to her feet. Viz now goes for a hard irish whip, as he sends Andrea to the far ropes at the other end!! Andrea rebounds back.. SPINEBUSTER!!! THE VISUAL PROPHET JUST SLAMMED ANDREA INTO THE CANVAS OF THE RING WITH THAT POWERFUL SPINEBUSTER!! Viz drops down for the pin!!

ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

TWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

THHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEE-

Stew-O: And there’s another kick out by Andrea Valentine!! Andrea is showing a tremendous amount of resiliency here tonight as her body has been through a lot against Sosa and Viz.

Jake Mercer: Well you know what they say. Once you go black, you’re gonna need a wheelchair.

Flannery McCoy: Jake!!! :damn:

Jake Mercer: I heard that from Terry Cruz. Another strong and muscular person that I believe could be a relative of The Visual Prophet.

Flannery McCoy: I’m not sure if Terry Cruz meant it the way that you said it.. But it looks like this match is going to be over soon!!

Stew-O: That’s absolutely right, Flannery, because Viz has just gotten down to his knee, and now he’s raising Andrea’s head up. He kisses her forehead, then stands right up to his feet. Viz begins to pat his elbows, as this crowd knows what’s coming nex-

Flannery McCoy: Wait!! Viz turns his attention back over to Xander Payne.. He begins to walk towards Xander Payne, as Xander looks absolutely annoyed at the fact that Viz is coming up to him again!! Viz gets within a foot of Xander, and.. HE BLOWS XANDER A KISS AS WELL!! Xander doesn’t take that blown kiss that well, as he it infuriates him, and he tries to throw a right hook onto The Visual Prophet, but Viz backs his head up, as Xander misses entirely!!

The Visual Prophet: (Off-mic) Too Slow, Fat Boy!

Stew-O: And Viz sticks his tongue out at the champion, as the crowd cheers heavily for him!! Xander Payne looks pissed off at the disrespect that’s being shown to him!! Viz turns around, as Andrea is just now getting up to her feet.. KISS TO THE HEAD!!! BULLHAMMER ELBOW STRIKE BY THE VISUAL PROPHET ONTO ANDREA VALENTINE!!!

Flannery McCoy: NO!!! ANDREA DUCKS UNDERNEATH THE ARM, AS VIZ GOES RIGHT PAST HER!! Viz turns around.. INVERTED STOMP FACEBREAKER BY ANDREA VALENTINE!! SHE JUST HOOKED VIZ’S ARM AND STUNNED HIM WITH THAT FACEBREAKER!!!

Stew-O: The Visual Prophet drops down to his hands and knees, as his head is definitely ringing after that counter by Andrea Valentine!!! Viz now works his way up to one knee..

Flannery McCoy: VALENTINE’S MASSACRE!!!! HANDSTAND HEADSCISSORS DRIVER BY ANDREA VALENTINE!!! SHE JUST DROVE VIZ’S HEAD RIGHT INTO THE CANVAS OF THE RING, AND NOW VIZ IS DOWN!!! Andrea looks up to Xander Payne. She’s hurting.. She’s exhausted.. She’s been in this match for so long.. She reaches her arm out, hoping for a tag.. AND XANDER GETS TAGGED IN!!

TAG!

Stew-O: Xander rushes into the ring, and instantly begins to stomp down onto Visual Prophet!! There was no way that Xander was going to just allow Viz to mock him the way that he did just a few moments ago, and now he’s making Big Viz pay for it!!

Flannery McCoy: He now grabs Viz and brings him up to his feet. Xander with a strong right hand!! Another!! And another!! Viz is definitely still out of focus, as he is groggy and leans up against Xander Payne as Xander holds him up. Xander Payne now turns his head and faces Sosa Henderson.. What the hell is he thinking? He shoves Viz back, as Viz groggily steps into.. A SUPERKICK!!! THE SUPERKICK JUST BLASTED VIZ IN THE CHIN, AS VIZ FALLS BACK AGAINST THE RING ROPES.. AND HE GETS HIS ARMS TRAPPED INTO THE ROPES!!!!

Stew-O: Looking back at that Superkick, you have to believe that Xander hit that move to mock Sosa Henderson’s mentor, Heart Break Boy. Xander is trying to get under the skin of everyone in this match, and he’s doing a fine job, as he’s in full control. Viz is trapped with the ring ropes.. AND XANDER CHARGES IN AT HIM WITH A EUROPEAN UPPERCUT!!!!! VIZ’S ARMS GET UNTRAPPED, AS HE DROPS DOWN TO HIS KNEES!!!

Jake Mercer: Xander Payne now grabs Viz by the head, and.. HE CONNECTS WITH A POWERFUL HEADBUTT THAT DROPS VIZ DOWN TO THE CANVAS OF THE RING!!! The Visual Prophet rolls to the center of the ring, as he faces the ceiling. Xander Payne now runs to the ropes.. He rebounds back towards Viz.. JUMPING SEATED SENTON!!! HE JUST DROVE 250+ pounds of himself into the chest of The Visual Prophet, and took the air right out of Big Viz!!! Xander Payne hooks the legs!!!

ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

TWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

THHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-

Stew-O: KICK OUT BY THE VISUAL PROPHET!!!

Flannery McCoy: These two teams have fought so hard tonight, and nobody is giving up!! Xander Payne slams his hand up against the ring mat hard, as he works his way up to his feet. He grabs Viz, and brings him up to his hands and knees.. BUT VIZ SHOVES XANDER PAYNE BACK!!! Xander falls back against the side ropes, bounces back.. AND INTO A SPINEBUSTER BY THE VISUAL PROPHET!!! XANDER PAYNE IS DOWN!!!

Jake Merceer: The Visual Prophet slowly works his way up to his hands and knees. He is obviously hurting, as he clutches at his head. He looks up at the corner turnbuckles, and begins to make his way over to them. What does Viz have in mind here? This can’t be good for Xander Payne.. Viz now begins to climb up to the top rope, as he gets himself set up.. That’s 280lbs of Pure muscle about to drop down into 253lbs of pure fa-

Flannery McCoy: Don’t be mean now..

Stew-O: Viz leaps into the air!!! BOW TO THE HEART!!!! DIVING ELBOW DROP BY THE VISUAL PROPHET!!!!!

Jake Mercer: AND IT MISSES!!! THE VISUAL PROPHET MISSES THE ELBOW DROP, AS XANDER PAYNE ROLLS OUT OF THE WAY!!! Viz is clutching at his elbow in pain, as he tries to work up to his feet. Meanwhile, Xander is doing the same thing and using the ropes to get to his feet. Xander is standing tall, as Viz slowly makes his way up while holding his elbow!! Viz walks over to Xander Pay-

Stew-O: KICK TO THE STOMACH.. STUNNER BY XANDER PAYNE!!!!

Flannery McCoy: That stunner caught Viz off guard, as he falls back towards the ropes behind him!! Viz bounce off the ropes and towards Xander Payne.. LAST SEDATION!!! POP UP POWERBOM-

Stew-O: KISS TO THE HEAD!!!! THE VISUAL PROPHET CONNECTS WITH THE KISS TO THE HEAD!!! HE HIT IT AS XANDER PAYNE POPPED HIM UP INTO THE AIR!!! XANDER PAYNE IS DOWN!!! HE’S OUT COLD!!! AND VIZ GOES FOR THE PIN!!!

ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

Flannery McCoy: Andrea steps into the ring!!!

TWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Flannery McCoy: And now she steps back out and onto the ring apron!!!

THHHHHHHHHHHHHHHRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

(DING! DING! DING!)

(“Voodoo Chile” Slight return by Jimi Hendrix hits, as the crowd goes wild. The Visual Prophet gets up to his feet, as Sosa Henderson meets him in the center of the ring to get their hands raised by the referee. We see Andrea Valentine hopping off of the ring apron, as she stares at the broken and beaten Xander Payne.)

Stephie Love: Here are your winners.. The Team of BULLETPROOF SOSA HENDERSON!!!! AND THE FOUNDER OF THE VISUAL PROPHET LEADERSHIP ACADEMY, THE VISUAL PROPHET!!!!

Stew-O: What a match that was!! And what a counter by Viz late in this match as he picks up a pin against a man that he may be facing for the world heavyweight championship in the future.

Flannery McCoy: But we can’t forget his other possible opponent, Andrea Valentine, as she basically threw this match after the treatment that Xander Payne gave her earlier on. He didn’t put any effort towards breaking the submission hold that she was in earlier against Sosa Henderson, and so she responded by not breaking up the pin and giving their team a chance. Those two are definitely rivals that don’t have any ounce of respect for the other!

Stew-O: And because of that, Sosa Henderson and The Visual Prophet managed to capitalize on it, and came out with the victory here tonight!! Thanks for tuning in to Friday Night Dynasty. We’ll see you next week as we get closer to Territorial Invasion!!

(The screen shows The Visual Prophet and Sosa Henderson celebrating their victory separately, then shows Andrea Valentine walking back up the entrance ramp with Xander Payne’s unconscious body in the background. The screen then fades to black.)
