Midsummer Massacre (2024)

(EAW intro plays…)

(The scene slowly panned out once again over into the star filled sky, with a full moon tonight as it seems like it was going to be another terrifying spooky night for the people of the world, the camera whooshing quickly across the sky and moving quickly, slowly lowering down towards a forest full of darkness and without any light at all seeping out of it before the camera moved itself up into the sky yet again and finally, it slowly stopped against an incredibly haunting looking house.)

Narrator: And here, ladies and gentlemen, I want to ask you in a way, can you tell me what your favorite scary movie is? Because you are about to see someone experience what a scary movie is about to be in front of their own eyes, unimaginable horrors that your mind can not imagine in any way being able to become true and have the chance to completely tear you apart, and we discrete the viewer right now to turn their head away from the television right now if they do not want to see this. It is about to get ugly, because we are about to see right now two courageous valiant women be forced to deal with their impending doom, those two women being known as Sienna Jade and Kassidy Heart-

Sienna Jade: HOLD ON, CUT!

(Suddenly, the scene is immediately taken out and it suddenly switches to the voice booth where they are shooting the narration as Sienna suddenly entered inside with an annoyed expression on her face.)

Sienna Jade: What are you all doing?!

Narrator: We are uh… shooting the narration right now.

Sienna Jade: Do you really think me and my bestie are going to go into an ugly looking house to shoot this stupid intro? Nuh-uh, no way!

Narrator: But we have to-

Sienna Jade: I have a BETTER idea, get out of the chair. I am going to start narrating.

Narrator: It is my job though!

Sienna Jade: Then congrats! You got vacations early, now shoo, shoo!

(Sienna ends up pushing the Narrator off their seat as she sits down on the seat instead, clearing her throat.)

Sienna Jade: (narrating) Anyway, hiiii! We are the hosts tonight so we might as well do the intro ourselves!

(Immediately, the scene goes back to the haunted house before in a snap, it is suddenly switched over to an incredibly prestigious and expensive looking mansion, most likely belonging to Kassidy as she and Sienna were sitting over on the couch.)

Sienna Jade: (narrating) Ignore whatever THAT guy was talking about, me and Kassidy were enjoying the cold but fresh night ooooff, idk, yesterday, trying to prepare ourselves for our roles as hosts of Midsummer Massacre when something… very weird, ended up happening.

(The camera now focuses towards Kassidy who is looking incredibly bored while Sienna rummages through some movies.)

Kassidy Heart: Sienna, can you tell me why we are doing this again?

Sienna Jade: Because we have to do a good job as hosts for Midsummer Massacre! I thought that it would be fun if we had a little girl’s night out watching hoooorror movies! Ooooh! And I got here some movies from the 70’s that I KNOW you are going to love!

Kassidy Heart: Okay, and quick question for a moment, why… the fuck… are we doing a horror movie themed Marquee Event… IN JULY AND NOT OCTOBER?!

Sienna Jade: :oh: I never thought about it that way.

Kassidy Heart: That is so stupid, I am going to ask Daddy Gawd if he can change that.

Sienna Jade: Anyway, don’t be a Debbie Downer! Let’s go and start watching some!

(Sienna quickly put on the first movie as it slowly turned onto the TV, the incredibly hot sun on Texas beaming down on a few women slowly entering what seemed to be a rundown house, five women to be exact, Miku, Auburn, Luna, Brianna and Aria, as they slowly enter inside and try to explore this weird looking house, Luna ends up walking over to what seemed to be a door that leads to the basement, she tilts her head on a confused manner, before suddenly, a chainsaw burst through the door and she screams incredibly loudly. Outside, two men standing on a small truck look towards each other, SOSA Henderson and Donovan Duke, as they quickly grab some weapons, hop out and then rush towards the door. It is broken down out of nowhere with Luna’s corpse, as they look up and see a gigantic man, revving up his chainsaw up, Leatherface-)

Kassidy Heart: Boooooriiiinggg! What kind of horror movie is this? Such an uninteresting first part just to lead up to that?

Sienna Jade: Ugh, they must have tricked me when they said the originals were better, bummer.

Kassidy Heart: Should have put on Carrie.

(Sienna goes to change movies as Kassidy stops for a moment, believing that she saw something out the window, but she shrugs and thinks it is her imagination.)

(The second movie is completely different, instead in the middle of a cold, completely dead night. Two women are quickly running inside of a house, moving up and down trying to escape something, Harper Lee and Milli Banks are running as suddenly, Harper ends up pushing Milli away and makes her trip, completely running away and leaving her to die, as Milli is forced to take cover and grab a weapon for herself, completely drenched in blood as she prepares herself. Police cars are suddenly driving forward and moving down the speedway, one red car being the fastest, as Cody Maverick was at the wheel wearing the most jock-like outfit possible while Ruler is sitting down on the driver’s seat with a sheriff’s outfit on. They stop right in front of the house, Ruler quickly drawing out a gun before they look towards the top floor, a figure standing right behind the curtains, his silhouette being very much recognizable. Michael Myers-)

Kassidy Heart: Wait, is this not the movie where the killer is an old weirdo, and he gets his ass kicked by a scrawny nerdy kid? When is that part coming up?

Sienna Jade: No, those are the latest movies, that one is a sequel to the sequel of the requel of Halloween.

Kassidy Heart: …can you sincerely tell me what even is a requel?

(Sienna shrugs as she continues watching the movie. Kassidy is ready to just focus on her phone when she stops for a moment and she sees the lights blink for a moment. Technical problems at this hour?)

(They are basically on their third movie by this point, instead people are running around what seemed to be futuristic looking hallways, Nikki and Ryan are running quickly as suddenly laser blasts are trying to shoot them down, they are trying to rob the ship right now. The two people trying to do that are Luis de la Rosa and Raeangel Guzman, they rush quickly trying to shoot down Nikki and Ryan, they avoid and zig zag, they fighting back too before something is heard all across above them, as suddenly, scrawny looking alien creatures suddenly jump out and end up falling first onto Luis as everyone panics. At the ship’s control, the captains Bronson and Kelton are trying to keep the ship from getting out of control, before a vent in the room suddenly starts being invaded with weird sounds. The two of them turns towards that vent, readying their weapons before the vent bursts through, and a incredibly creepy looking alien creature comes out of the vent, it is nothing else but the Xenomorph-)

Kassidy Heart: Wait, since when is Alien a 70’s movie?

Sienna Jade: It actually came out in 1979, so it does work! And besides, it is a perfect segway for the sponsorship.

(Sienna turns towards the camera Office style and winks towards it several times.)

Kassidy Heart: …what the fuck are you looking at?

(And finally, in the fourth movie, the scenery has changed once more, a sun shining all across the sky as the scene was now on a prosperous beach full of so many people, enjoying their time and playing on the sand. One Veena Adams was currently enjoying the sea at the moment, slowly resting upon the water with her cute pink bikini, hands on the back of her head and drifting in the water. Over at the side in a boat, a fisherman named Roberto de la Rosa is enjoying his time when he suddenly sees something in the distance, a fin. He shouts loudly to the beach to everyone, people start evacuating. The lifeguard in charge, Charlie Marr, sees Veena still on the water as he rushes quickly onto the water, but it is too late as Veena turns over and screams loudly, as something comes out of the water to bite her down, a Great White Shark-)

Kassidy Heart: Alright Sienna, something weird is happening around here, and I am not talking about my stupid fucking niece being on Jaws for some reason!

Sienna Jade: Eh, what are you talking about?

(The lights quickly start blinking now, trees and the wind growing stronger as branches from trees knock against the windows of the mansion. Sienna and Kassidy are confused and looking around, not knowing there was a gigantic looking figure starting to approach behind them.)

(They continue to approach slowly and slowly, their intimidating presence being hidden by a hoodie and wearing a hideous looking mask. They slowly raise something above their head as they get closer and closer, inch by inch.)

(They are standing right behind the couch as the tension rises up, and Sienna slowly turns around.)

Sienna Jade: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

Kassidy Heart: 😐

Kassidy Heart: Ugh, I know that mask everywhere.

(The person slowly takes off the mask and they quickly reveal to be…)

TLA: ¡Epale mijas! How are y’all doing?!

Kassidy Heart: Really?

Sienna Jade: Hehe, wanted to pull a small prank on you! You liked my scream queen acting though? I thought I did fabulous!

Kassidy Heart: (in the most monotone tone of voice possible) Good job, bestie.

Sienna Jade: Anyway, what did we learn today?

Kassidy Heart: Huh?

Sienna Jade: What did we learn from watching horror movies?

Kassidy Heart: Oh, I did not learn anything at all, I was on my phone the whole time.

Sienna Jade: Ugh! Fine, guess I will have to do all of the heavy lifting for the host job, but I can’t watch all of these movies for myself!

TLA: I can help!

Sienna Jade: …uuuuuh, sure, I guess.

Kassidy Heart: Please don’t-

TLA: WOOHOO! SLUMBER PARTY SE HA DICHO!

(TLA suddenly rips his outfit apart, revealing that he was wearing some Mexico themed pijamas underneath, as he suddenly jumps over the couch, sitting down right in between Kassidy and Sienna and magically brings out some popcorn for himself.)

(Kassidy annoyingly sighs and she simply continues spending her time on her phone, while Sienna shrugs again and decides to spend the rest of the night watching horror movies with TLA. The scene changes once more, the camera quickly moving away from the mansion and moving to show the moon in the sky, the scene fading away on that last shot.)

???: AND NOW ALIEN: ROMULUS AND A&W ROOT BEER PRESENT THE SHOWDOWN EXCLUSIVE 2024 – MIDSUMMER MASSACRE!!!!!

(The camera pans around the Chaifetz Arena in St. Louis, Missouri as the pyro goes off. “looking For The Magic ” by Mind The Gap plays loudly as people are dancing, the set up of the arena is like an old 70’s Horror Movie, shifting to the announce team of Deadprez, Eve, and Gavin Kirkland, all three dressed in 70’s style clothing.)

Deadprez: EAW UNIVERSE! WELCOME TO THE SHOWDOWN EXCLUSIVE! MIDSUMMER MASSACRE! WHAT AN EXCITING NIGHT OF PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING WE HAVE FOR YOU! I AM DEADPREZ, JOINED BY MY COLLEAGUES, EVE AND GAVIN KIRKLAND! WE HAVE THREE TITLES ON THE LINE TONIGHT AND TWO ELITISTS LURKING WITH CASH-INS, COULD WE SEE ONE OF THEM DO IT TONIGHT?

Eve: GREAT POINT, WE COULD SEE A CASH IN TONIGHT, BUT ASIDE FROM THE ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP BEING INSIDE OF THE STEEL CAGE, WE ALSO HAVE THE UNIVERSAL WOMEN’S CHAMPIONSHIP AS A VERY HUNGRY HARPER LEE WILL LOOK TO DETHRONE MILLI BANKS! WE ALSO HAVE VEENA ADAMS DEFENDING HER TITLE AGAINST LA FAMILIA’S OWN, ROBERTO DE LA ROSA!

Gavin Kirkland: NOT JUST THE TITLE MATCHES, WE HAVE AN IRON MAN MATCH! A MEXICAN STREET FIGHT, TWO HUNGRY YOUNG LIONS WANTING TO POSITION THEMSELVES ON THE SHOWDOWN ROSTER! THE TWO CASH-INS FACE ONE ANOTHER AND FIVE OF THE HOTTEST WOMEN… I MEAN MOST TALENTED FACE OFF IN A FATAL FIVE WAY WITH A CHAMPIONSHIP SHOT ON THE LINE…. AND… THE JADED HEARTS ARE HOSTING THE EVENTS TONIGHT!

Deadprez: ALL THIS AND MORE, LET’S SEND IT TO GINA ROMANO WHO IS ABOUT TO INTRODUCE THE PARTICIPANTS FOR OUR FIRST CONTEST OF THE NIGHT AND WE ARE GOING TO KICK IT OFF WITH ONE OF THE BIGGEST MATCHES OF THE NIGHT AND IT IS GOING TO BE A SHUCKY DUCKY QUACK QUACK!

(The first match graphic of the night appears as the crowd roars in excitement.)

https://i.ibb.co/S3mtQyk/Veenavs-Roberto-NEC.png

(The camera cuts to the ring where Gina Romano is standing as she is ready to begin the introductions for the first match of the evening.)

Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is your OPENING CONTEST OF MIDSUMMER MASSACRE SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL….

Crowd: ONE FALL!

Gina Romano: AND IT IS FOR YOUR ELITE ANSWERS WRESTLING NATIONAL ELITE CHAMPIONSHIP!

(“PUT EM IN THE FRIDGE” by Peso Pluma (ft. Cardi B) starts playing throughout the arena which elicits a negative reaction from the crowd as we see two black sedan’s drive in front of a black Escalade SUV before they arrive inside the arena in front of the fans. As the cars come to a full stop the security inside the black sedan get out as the remaining members of La Familia exit the Escalade to open the door for the Challenger Roberto De La Rosa and the lovely Esmeralda. Security guards walk in front of Roberto as himself and La Familia head to the ring.)

Gina Romano: Introducing first and making his way to the ring is the CHALLENGER! Representing and accompanied to the ring by LA FAMILIA! Currently residing in Cancun, Mexico as well as Miami, Florida! Weighing 225 pounds! Here is “EL PADRINO” ROBERTO DE LA ROOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSA!

Deadprez: Here comes the Challenger for the first of three title matches here tonight at Midsummer Massacre. Roberto De La Rosa is heading to the ring and naturally he is not as alone as he is being flanked by La Familia.

Gavin Kirkland: This brute is a former Hardcore Champion who lost his title at Pain for Pride to Cameron Ella Ava. Ever since being drafted, he has been looking for his next taste of Championship gold.

Eve: De La Rosa is devious and dangerous especially when he has La Familia by his side. Tonight, The Godfather of Elite Answers Wrestling is looking to dethrone Veena Adams and become the new National Elite Champion. Roberto has Veena’s wrath, but we are about to see if he’ll have her title too.

(Security surrounds the ring as Roberto De La Rosa helps Esmeralda get inside the ring before he gets inside as he throws the ones up looking around the arena with a very confident smirk before helping Esmeralda get out and heading to his respective corner and La Familia take their place at ringside. Seconds later, his music is replaced by “7 Rings” by Ariana Grande as the crowd continues the mostly negative reaction as the National Elite Champion Veena Adams enters the arena. The image of style and glamour, Veena soaks in the crowd’s reaction… not that she cares… as she holds the National Elite Championship high in the air as she heads to the ring.)

Gina Romano: Introducing his opponent! From Greenwich, Connecticut. Weighing in at 137 pounds! Here is the REIGNING AND DEFENDING ELITE ANSWERS WRESTLING NATIONAL ELITE CHAMPION! “THE GOLDEN STAR” VEENA AAAAAAAAAADDDAAAAAAAAAMMMMMSSSS!

Gavin Kirkland: WOOOOOOOO! Here is the winner. Here is MY PICK to retain her National Elite Championship and continue her glorious reign. I am feeling so much right now… and I would like to feel more.

Eve: Wishful thinking from Gavin Kirkland, but ever since she was attacked at the beginning of the season, she has been out for blood against the man, or should I say the FAMILIA, who tried to take her out.

Deadprez: Veena is a two time National Elite Champion. Roberto is looking to win the second title of his career. Who will leave St. Louis victorious? We are about to find out!

(Veena enters the ring and takes her corner as her entrance music fades off. Veena hands her title belt to the referee who presents it to both Champion and Challenger. The referee then holds the belt in the air for the crowd to see before they hand it to Gina Romano and call for the bell.)

(DING! DING! DING!)

Eve: Sound of the bell and the National Elite Championship is on the line in our opening contest of Midsummer Massacre AND VEENA ADAMS BARELY WAITED FOR THE BELL TO RING BEFORE SHE JUST STARTED POUNDING THE CRAP OUT OF HER CHALLENGER!

Deadprez: Roberto is doing whatever he can to block the shots, but Veena has him boxed into the corner and the referee is right there telling Veena to let him out of the corner. Naturally, Veena is not listening and the referee starts a count.

Gavin Kirkland: Of course she listened! Look at her! The referee was on four and she pulled him out of the corner and stopped beating on him. She is such a good girl.

Deadprez: What you are forgetting to mention is that SHE PULLED HIM OUT OF THE CORNER BY HIS HAIR, GAVIN! But Veena does have a couple of handfuls of Roberto’s hair AND SHE USES MOMENTUM IN HER FAVOR AND FLINGS HIM ACROSS THE RING!

Eve: La Familia didn’t like that one bit and they are screaming at Veena from ringside as she is now ignoring them AND the referee who is reprimanding her for using Roberto’s hair against him.

Gavin Kirkland: You know that the referee is just playing favorites. Everybody is always against Veena Adams. Right now we see Roberto sitting up after being used as a frisbee AND SHE JUST KICKS ROBERTO RIGHT IN THE SPINE!

Eve: Cheap shot by the Champion, but to be quite honest, these two right now aren’t exactly the most popular competitors in EAW, but neither of them care. The only thing that either of them care about right now is leaving with the National Elite Championship.

Deadprez: Veena pulls Roberto back to his while once again using his hair as leverage before she whips him to the ropes. Roberto with the rebound AS VEENA GOES FOR THE THESZ PRESS–

Gavin Kirkland: ROBERTO CAUGHT HER! ROBERTO HAS HOLD OF VEENA BY THE LEGS AND BLOCKING THE THESZ PRESS! PUT HER DOWN!! THAT’S MY JOB!!

Eve: Yuck! Anyways, Veena is in a lot of trouble right now as Roberto starts backing up towards the ropes. This isn’t going to be good for Veena as Roberto falls back–

Deadprez: ROBERTO DROPS VEENA THROAT FIRST ON THE TOP ROPE! BEAUTIFUL COUNTER BY THE FORMER HARDCORE CHAMPION! Veena is still on her feet but holding her throat in pain. Not the first time I’m sure.

Gavin Kirkland: What a horrible comment to make. Veena is as kind as she is beautiful and that back fighter could have injured her so badly that she might never talk again.

Deadprez: We aren’t that lucky, but Veena does turn around to a waiting Roberto who had hit the ropes AND HE CLOBBERS VEENA WITH A CLOTHESLINE FROM HELL!

Eve: Veena was turned inside out after that shot as more damage was done to her throat. Poor Charlie will be so disappointed after seeing that.

Gavin Kirkland: And so is Gavin Kirkland. You two are horrible!! Making our National Elite Champion out to be someone who is not pure and wholesome. All while she is in so much pain.

Eve: While I don’t condone what La Familia did, Veena is NOT pure and wholesome. Right now she is on the receiving end of a beatdown from Roberto as he puts the boots to the Champion.

Deadprez: Now Roberto is going to return the favor and he is using Veena’s hair to bring her back to her feet. He whips Veena to the ropes before she rebounds AND ROBERTO TAKES HER DOWN WITH A DOUBLE LEG TAKEOVER! Now the Challenger is mounting Veena Adams… Gavin’s fantasy… AND HE IS THROWING THOSE MMA STYLE PUNCHES IN HER FACE!

Gavin Kirkland: I would NEVER punch Veena in the face! But this horrible barbarian is beating up on Veena and on the verge of trying to permanently scar a billion dollar face! STOP IT! Thank gawd the referee is there to tell Roberto to open the fists.

Eve: The referee starts a count and Roberto opens the fist on four to prevent being disqualified, but from what I can see, this is just the beginning of these two beating the hell out of each other in this match.

Deadprez: Roberto is not in a good mood as he continues to return the favor by using her hair again to pull her back to her feet and the referee is right there reprimanding Roberto about the hair before he whips her to the corner.

Gavin Kirkland: Yeah, to the corner where La Familia is standing. That’s like six on one or something. That is completely unfair! The referee needs to throw their asses out or something.

Deadprez: They haven’t done anything yet, but I am sure if they do, the referee will do what is necessary. Now let’s get back to the match as Veena is in the corner as Roberto has his back to Veena–

Eve: ROBERTO STARTS THROWING THOSE BACK ELBOWS THAT ARE CATCHING VEENA IN THE FACE AND IN THE HEAD! DIRECT HITS BY THE CHALLENGER AND THE REFEREE IS AGAIN RIGHT THERE TO TELL ROBERTO TO LET HER OUT OF THE CORNER!

Gavin Kirkland: It’s about time Roberto listens as he stops throwing those elbows on four. If he keeps doing that to poor Veena, he needs to be disqualified. Now he pulls her out of the corner AND INTO A BELLY TO BELLY SUPLEX!

Eve: Veena is down on the mat and Roberto decides that it’s time to go high risk as he makes his way to the top rope in order to cause more damage to the Champion. They are going to be pulling out all stops this entire match and this is just one small taste of it.

Deadprez: Roberto has made it to the top rope and he is looking to get turned around… BUT LOOK AT THIS! VEENA WAS ABLE TO GET BACK TO HER FEET IN ENOUGH TIME TO BEAT ROBERTO TO THE PUNCH!

Gavin Kirkland: ROBERTO COULDN’T GET FULLY TURNED AROUND AS VEENA USES ALL HER POWER TO SHOVE ROBERTO OFF THE TOP ROPE AND SHOVE HIM ALL THE WAY TO THE ARENA FLOOR!

Eve: ROBERTO WAS ALMOST LAUNCHED RIGHT INTO THE TIMEKEEPER’S AREA! Gina Romano got out of there for her safety, but Roberto did not have a good landing at all. This is almost reminiscent of what Veena did to Milli Banks last week.

Deadprez: That ended up leading to a double countout draw for both of them. But I don’t think Veena would care if she won via countout in this match because how she might have taken Roberto completely out right there.

Gavin Kirkland: Oh please, Prezzy. Veena doesn’t settle for victories like that. She wants to really shove it in their face by pinning them or making them tap in the center of the ring.

Deadprez: That explains why Veena has made her way to the top turnbuckle AND SHE IS LOOKING OUT TO ROBERTO! WHAT THE HELL IS ON HER MIND?

Eve: With all that bleach, probably nothing, but whatever she plans on doing is not going to be good as the referee is counting and Veena is watching Roberto slowly make it to his feet. I am honestly surprised that Roberto is conscious after that landing.

Gavin Kirkland: I am too, so I guess I can give him credit. But not for long as he is back to his feet and he turns around to Veena WHO LAUNCHES HERSELF OFF THE TOP TURNBUCKLE WITH FLYING CROSSBODY–

Eve: That little princess certainly got some air time as she makes contact with Roberto and sends him crashing back down to the arena floor. Even though the crowd isn’t exactly supportive of either competitor, they are certainly giving Veena her credit for what she just did right there.

Deadprez: But Veena didn’t get out of that completely unscathed as she took a little bit of damage when she hit the floor. Meanwhile, the referee is in the ring counting both competitors out of the match.

Gavin Kirkland: Oh now that Veena is out of the ring, the referee finds the fire to pick up the pace. How ridiculous. Even though the referee is counting faster than usual, Veena is still the first to make it back to her feet.

Eve: Veena is trying to shake the cobwebs out of possibly hitting her head on the floor as he grabs Roberto and again uses his hair for leverage to drag him back to the ring. At this rate, she is going to pull Roberto’s hair out by the roots.

Deadprez: Roberto hit the floor hard twice in a row, so the challenger could be completely knocked out right now as Veena is lifting Roberto into the ring like a sack of potatoes. It took some work, but she was able to get Roberto back into the ring.

Gavin Kirkland: Now the beautiful Veena drags Roberto over to the corner as she goes right back up to the top turnbuckle. Seeing her jump off the top rope is like watching an angel fly.

Deadprez: Are you getting paid extra to kiss her ass, dawg? It’s getting sickening! Be that as it may, Roberto hasn’t moved as Veena gets her balance on the turnbuckle BEFORE SHE JUMPS OFF THE TOP ROPE ONCE AGAIN–

Eve: CORKSCREW ELBOW DROP FINDS ITS MARK IN THE HEART OF ROBERTO DE LA ROSA! DIRECT HIT BY THE CHAMPION AS SHE QUICKLY HOOKS THE LEG FOR THE COVER!

ONNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEE!

TWWWWWWWWWOOOOOO!

Gavin Kirkland: NEAR FALL FOR VEENA ADAMS! OH COME ON! THAT LOVELY LADY HAD THE THREE COUNT! STOP COUNTING SO SLOW TO GIVE HIM A CHANCE TO KICK OUT!

Eve: She doesn’t love you and she never will, so stop acting like a lovesick bitch for someone who doesn’t know you exist. That was a two count. It was NOT a three count and it NEVER was going to be a three count.

Deadprez: She has a point, Gavin. Just do your job and call this Championship Match!

Gavin Kirkland: My appreciation for amazing beauty will NOT BE SILENCED! COME ON VEENA! WIN THIS MATCH!

Eve: He’s hopeless. While Gavin was professing his love, Veena glared at the referee while she was bringing Roberto back to his feet. She whips Roberto into the corner and FOLLOWS IT UP WITH A CLOTHESLINE!

Deadprez: Roberto is stumbling out of the corner as Veena makes her way to the second rope. VEENA JUMPS OFF THE SECOND ROPE AND CATCHES ROBERTO WITH THE BULLDOG! ROBERTO GOES FACE FIRST INTO THE MAT!

Gavin Kirkland: Veena really needs to keep building up that momentum so she can put the challenger away. Veena is now on Roberto’s back AND SHE IS JUST POUNDING AWAY ON THE BACK OF HIS HEAD!

Deadprez: THOSE MMA STYLE STRIKES ARE FINDING THEIR MARK ON THE BACK OF ROBERTO’S SKULL! The referee is making sure they don’t turn into closed fists and become illegal strikes–

Eve: DAMN! PALM STRIKE TO THE BASE OF THE SKULL! Roberto is starting to fall to the mat AS VEENA GRABS HIM BY THE NECK AND ROLLS HIM OVER! I THINK VEENA HAS A SLEEPER HOLD APPLIED!

Gavin Kirkland: Come on, Eve. THAT IS A REAR NAKED CHOKE! SUBMISSION MOVE APPLIED! WHAT A THING OF BEAUTY THAT IS!!

Eve: Of course you would think so, but the Rear Naked Choke is not one of Veena’s standard submissions, but sometimes you have to get unique with your offense. The referee is right there to check and see if Roberto is going to give it up.

Deadprez: Veena has that submission locked in tight as Roberto is trying to find a way to break the hold or get free. His hands are too far away from the ropes to get a break, but I THINK HE’S THOUGHT OF SOMETHING!

Gavin Kirkland: HE’S STILL DRAGGING HIMSELF OVER TO THE ROPES! Alright, I can give him credit for that, but Veena is using all the power she can to prevent that and make sure that Roberto passes out because if he passes out VEENA WINS AND I GET TO CELEBRATE!!

Eve: This is only the first match and you are already too much, Roberto is dragging himself over to the ropes. HE IS ABOUT A FOOT AWAY AND HE THROWS HIS BOOT WITH ALL HIS MIGHT–

Deadprez: HE MADE IT TO THE ROPES! ROPE BREAK AND VEENA IS FORCED TO BREAK THE HOLD! BUT SHE ISN’T DOING IT! SHE STILL HAS THE CHOKE APPLIED AND THE REFEREE IS STARTING A COUNT!

Gavin Kirkland: The referee didn’t even give her a warning before they started counting. How is that fair? But Veena, being the good girl that she is, relinquished the choke on four. See! She follows the rules.

Deadprez: Yeah yeah. She’s a regular angel in the ring, but Roberto was smart right there as he was able to get his boots grapevine along the bottom rope and he is able to maneuver himself onto the apron.

Eve: That was all while Veena was getting in the referee’s face about counting her out again. She’s obviously tired of the referee as she turns her attention back to Roberto and sees that he is on the apron.

Gavin Kirkland: Veena comes running in to take him off the apron, BUT ROBERTO CATCHES VEENA WITH A MODIFIED ROUNDHOUSE KICK TO THE SIDE OF VEENA’S HEAD! POOR VEENA GOES STUMBLING BACK AFTER THAT SHOT!

Eve: Veena is still on her feet and Roberto springs up to the top rope BEFORE TURNING AROUND AND HITTING THE SPRINGBOARD MOONSAULT! ROBERTO GOT ALL OF THE MOONSAULT AND TAKES VEENA DOWN BEFORE HOOKING THE LEG!

ONNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEE!

TWWWWWWWWOOOOOO!

THHHHHH–

Deadprez: VEENA GETS THE SHOULDER UP AT TWO AND THIS MATCH CONTINUES ON! Roberto doesn’t give Veena a chance to recover as he pulls her back to her feet and lifts her up in the air BEFORE DROPPING HER WITH A SIDE SUPLEX!

Gavin Kirkland: He dropped poor Veena on the back of her head! Look at her holding the back of her head in pain. I must go to her and make her feel better. She could have a concussion.

Eve: You will stay right here, stop the simping, and call the damn match before we let La Familia kick your ass. Speaking of La Familia, they are all cheering on their leader Roberto as he keeps putting the boots to Veena.

Deadprez: Veena is trying to create some distance between her and Roberto as she makes it to the ropes and the referee forces Roberto back away from Veena.

Gavin Kirkland: It’s about time the referee did something right and got that back fighter away from the National Elite Champion. Not just the National Elite Champion, but the GREATEST NATIONAL ELITE CHAMPION IN ALL OF EAW HISTORY!

Deadprez: Stop inflating her ego more than it already is, Gavin. There are many people who will strongly debate that statement, but she is making her mark on the Championship. Meanwhile, Roberto JUST SHOVED THE REFEREE OUT OF THE WAY AND GOES RIGHT BACK TO VEENA–

Eve: VEENA JUST GRABBED THE FRONT OF ROBERTO’S TIGHTS AND SENT HIM THROAT FIRST INTO THE TOP ROPE! Roberto comes stumbling backwards away from the top rope while Veena is back on her feet and she hits the ropes.

Gavin Kirkland: Veena comes back as Roberto turns around AND VEENA CATCHES ROBERTO IN THE JAW WITH A JUMPING KNEE STRIKE! THAT’S WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT!

Eve: Roberto bounces off the ropes from the impact but comes back to Veena AND VEENA THROWS A BACK ELBOW THAT CATCHES ROBERTO RIGHT IN THE NOSE! WHAT A SHOT BY THE CHAMPION!

Deadprez: That certainly had to make his eyes water as he bounces off the ropes again before Veena kicks him in the gut and doubles him over. Veena hooks both of Roberto’s arms as SHE USES ALL THE MOMENTUM THAT SHE CAN TO TAKE HIM OVER WITH THE BUTTERFLY SUPLEX–

Gavin Kirkland: RIGHT INTO THE CROSS ARMBREAKER BY VEENA! VEENA CALLS THAT COMBINATION “FLOAT LIKE A BUTTERFLY”! IT’S NOT GOING TO FEEL LIKE A BUTTERFLY WHEN VEENA’S DONE! MAKE HIM TAP!

Eve: ROBERTO IS TOO FAR AWAY FROM THE ROPES TO GET HIS FEET OR HIS BOOTS ON THE ROPES! LOOK AT VEENA JUST WRENCHING AND TORQUING THAT ARM OF ROBERTO!

Deadprez: HE BETTER THINK QUICK AGAIN OR VEENA COULD BREAK HIS ARM… LOOK! ROBERTO IS ABLE TO ROLL AND MOVE HIMSELF THAT HE ROLLS UP VEENA! SHE STILL HAS THE ARMBREAKER APPLIED BUT HER SHOULDERS ARE DOWN!

ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEE!

TWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOO!

THHHHHHH—

Gavin Kirkland: VEENA GOT HER SHOULDER UP! WOOOOOO! Look at Veena still having that armbreaker applied. She is still wrenching on Roberto’s arm–

Deadprez: LOOK AT THE POWER FROM ROBERTO DE LA ROSA! ROBERTO JUST DEADLIFTED THE NATIONAL ELITE CHAMPION FROM THE MAT INTO THE AIR! Veena is trying to hold onto the armbreaker with all her might–

Eve: ROBERTO JUST DROPS VEENA WITH A MODIFIED POWERBOMB! VEENA WAS ALMOST DROPPED ON HER HEAD AFTER THAT MOVE, BUT IT DOES FORCE VEENA TO RELEASE THE HOLD!

Gavin Kirkland: As great as it is for him to get free, there was no need to drop poor Veena on her head with that little stunt. I can understand winning, but there is no need to try and injure her.

Eve: You are about as dramatic as she is. Veena once again manages to roll over to the ropes, BUT ROBERTO DOESN’T CARE! ROBERTO IS STANDING ON VEENA’S HEAD AND USING THE ROPES FOR LEVERAGE!

Deadprez: The referee is telling Roberto to get off of Veena’s head and the ropes before the referee starts another count to which Roberto stops standing on Veena’s head when the referee reaches four.

Gavin Kirkland: I am not going to criticize, but I think that had to be one of the slowest four counts I have ever seen a referee do. It’s sad when somebody is showing complete bias like. It burns inside me seeing Roberto pull Veena away from the ropes by the neck like that.

Eve: The referee is reprimanding Roberto for doing that, so calm your ass, Gavin. As we get back to the match, Roberto picks Veena and goes to slam her BUT INSTEAD DROPS HER INTO A BACKBREAKER!

Deadprez: THE POINT OF ROBERTO’S KNEE WAS DRIVEN INTO THE SPINE OF THE NATIONAL ELITE CHAMPION! Roberto keeps Veena stretched across his knee just for the sake of torturing Veena a little more.

Gavin Kirkland: The referee is asking if she wants to continue the match. What the hell kind of question is that? Of course she wants to continue. Just look at her trying to fight back AS SHE MANAGES TO SEND HER FOOT BACK AND KICK ROBERTO IN THE SIDE OF THE HEAD! THAT WAS GREAT!

Deadprez: The causes Veena to get free of the backbreaker and now both competitors are back to their feet AND ROBERTO IMMEDIATELY GRABS VEENA TO TRY WHAT LOOKS LIKE A FLATLINER–

Eve: VEENA WITH ELBOWS TO THE SIDE OF THE HEAD THAT SEND ROBERTO STAGGERING BACK! Veena grabs Roberto and whips him to the corner. Veena comes running in full speed AND HITS ROBERTO WITH THE CLOTHESLINE AGAINST THE THROAT!

Gavin Kirkland: Roberto falls back and he is sitting in the corner now. Veena sees an opportunity to strike again as she backs up to the opposite corner BEFORE RUNNING FULL SPEED TO THE CORNER–

Eve: BRONCO BUSTER BY VEENA ADAMS! Honestly, there are no words that I can use to commentate that move because the move speaks for itself as Gavin’s eyes are about to roll into the back of his head.

Deadprez: The referee is telling Veena to get out of the corner and she stops the bronco buster on four. Veena turns around to follow up the bronco buster WITH A STINKFACE!! WHAT IN THE HELL? GAVIN, SIT DOWN DAMN IT!!

Gavin Kirkland: IT’S NOT FAIR! ROBERTO IS MARRIED! I’M NOT! THAT’S THE “FORBIDDEN FRUITS” BY VEENA! I VOLUNTEER AS TRIBUTE TO TASTE THE FORBIDDEN FRUITS! I WANT IT!

Eve: Gawd. Could you sound any more needy? Yeah, you probably can. Anyways, Roberto is still in the corner AND VEENA RUNS TO THE CORNER AGAIN AND DELIVERS A DROPKICK RIGHT TO THE FACE!

Deadprez: I THINK VEENA CAUGHT HIM IN THE MOUTH WITH THAT DROPKICK! Either way, Veena grabs another handful of Roberto’s hair to bring him back to his feet. Roberto still a little dazed after the dropkick–

Gavin Kirkland: CARTWHEEL KICK BY THE CHAMPION! KICK CAUGHT ROBERTO IN THE SIDE OF THE HEAD AND HE FALLS TO THE MAT! The amazing Veena follows that by stacking Roberto up for the cover!

ONNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEE!

TWWWWWWWOOOOOOOO!

THHHH–

Deadprez: ROBERTO KICKS OUT AT TWO! Look at the close up on Roberto. We can see that his mouth is bleeding after that dropkick from Veena that caught him in the mouth. That could have knocked a tooth or two out, but I am not sure if Roberto cares.

Eve: Veena doesn’t either as she pulls Roberto onto his knees again using the hair. I think the referee has given up telling these two to stop using each others’ hair. Let them pull their hair out by the roots.

Gavin Kirkland: That would cost Roberto some money to replace Veena’s beautiful locks. Veena has Roberto on his knees AND VEENA DELIVERS THE KESAGIRI CHOP! STRAIGHT DIAGONAL CHOP TO THE THROAT!

Eve: Now Veena tries to follow it up with a kick to the head BUT ROBERTO DUCKS IT AT THE LAST SECOND! Veena tries the kick again, BUT ROBERTO CAUGHT IT! ROBERTO CAUGHT VEENA’S FOOT AS ROBERTO GETS BACK TO HIS FEET!

Deadprez: Veena is bouncing around on one foot as she tries to reason with Roberto, but Roberto wants nothing to do with it AS VEENA TRIES FOR AN ENZUIGIRI COUNTER, BUT ROBERTO AVOIDS THE SHOT!

Gavin Kirkland: But Roberto manages to grab hold of Veena AND TAKES HER UP AND OVER WITH A JUDO STYLE THROW AND VEENA HITS THE MAT! Roberto follows that up WITH A KICK TO THE SPINE! THAT WASN’T NICE!

Eve: If it was good for Veena, then it is good for Roberto. Veena is still on the mat AND ROBERTO THROWS A BIG ELBOW TO THE BACK OF HER NECK! VEENA CRUMBLES DOWN TO THE MAT IN PAIN!

Deadprez: Roberto is once again pulling Veena back to her feet using the hair and we can hear that he is screaming something at Veena in Spanish. If my Spanish is correct, then I believe he said “THIS IS WHAT YOU GET WHEN YOU MESS WITH LA FAMILIA, BITCH”!

Gavin Kirkland: Now that was uncalled for. No need to call her names like that. But that horrible brutish Roberto kicks Veena and doubles her over before he hits the ropes. Roberto rebounds off the ropes–

Deadprez: RUNNING KNEE LIFT BY ROBERTO AND THAT CAUGHT VEENA RIGHT IN THE FACE! THAT WAS A HORRIBLE SHOT AS VEENA FALLS BACK TO THE MAT HOLDING HER FACE!

Eve: Roberto actually doesn’t let her fall as he pulls her back up AND HITS THE SAITO SUPLEX! VEENA DROPPED ON THE BACK OF HER HEAD AGAIN AS ROBERTO MANAGES TO BRIDGE UP FOR THE COVER!

ONNNNNNNNNNEEEEEE!

TWWWWWWWWOOOOO!

THHHHHRRRRRREEEEEE–

Gavin Kirkland: YES! MY GIRL VEENA SHOWS HOW STRONG SHE IS BY POWERFULLY KICKING OUT BEFORE THREE! SHE IS AMAZING! SHE IS THE BEST SHE IS… BLEEDING!

Eve: You certainly got that right, Gavin. The imaginary love of your life for the next twenty minutes is horribly bleeding from the nose after that knee from Roberto. And her eyes are watering too. You know how I can tell? Her mascara is starting to run.

Deadprez: That must have been a hell of a shot to do that. Veena’s nose could be broken, but I don’t think she gives a damn or a fuck about that right now with her title on the line and in jeopardy.

Gavin Kirkland: That bastard has possibly permanently scarred Veena’s beautiful face. Look at him. He looks so proud of himself as he rolls Veena onto her stomach. What does he have planned?

Eve: Roberto has just put Veena’s legs in that figure four position. Now he puts his knee into her spine AND LIFTS HER UP IN THE AIR! ROBERTO WITH THE LASSO FROM EL PASO! HE HAS A SUBMISSION OF HIS OWN APPLIED ON VEENA!

Deadprez: Just like Roberto earlier, Veena is nowhere near the ropes so a rope break is almost out of the question. Especially with his knee in her back. She isn’t crawling anywhere.

Gavin Kirkland: Poor Veena looks to be in excruciating pain being locked in that submission. Roberto is looking to finish the job he started a few weeks ago. He won’t stop until she is permanently injured and he has HER title around his waist.

Deadprez: The rest of La Familia is cheering on Roberto at ringside whilst he could be a few moments away from winning the second championship of his career. The referee is asking Veena right now if she wants to give it up.

Eve: We already know that she’s not going to tap out. She’d rather die before she loses to someone she deems beneath her… and that’s pretty much EVERYBODY! Veena’s back is being bent at horrible angle right now and who knows how much damage is being caused right now—

Gavin Kirkland: SHE’S BITING! SHE MANAGED TO MANEUVER HERSELF ENOUGH TO GRAB HOLD OF ROBERTO’S OTHER LEG AND SHE IS BITING HIS CALF!! You have to give Veena credit for coming up with that one.

Eve: Alright. Yeah we can. Veena had to get very creative to think of that one. But that is still an illegal move and the referee is telling Veena to get her fangs… I mean teeth out of Roberto’s leg.

Deadprez: The pain must have gotten too much for Roberto as he breaks the Lasso from El Paso just as the referee reaches four. Roberto is limping a little bit as he tries to shake off any damage Veena did by biting him.

Gavin Kirkland: Meanwhile Veena has made it back to her feet with a little help from the ropes as she runs in for an attack to Roberto, BUT ROBERTO COUNTERS WITH THAT BIG BOOT TO THE FACE—

Eve: NO HE DIDN’T! VEENA WAS ABLE TO AVOID THE BOOT AT THE LAST SECOND AS SHE HITS THE ROPES ON THE OTHER SIDE! Roberto was catching his balance off the missed big boot as Veena was coming back. Roberto turns around–

Deadprez: SPEAR! VEENA GOT THE SPEAR ON ROBERTO AS HE SNAPS BACK AND HITS THE MAT HARD! THAT MOVE CAME RIGHT OUT OF HER UNCLE’S PLAYBOOK! ROBERTO IS DOWN AND VEENA HOOKS THE LEG FOR THE COVER!

ONNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!

TWWWWWWWWOOOOOO!

THHHHHHRRRRREEEEEEE!

Gavin Kirkland: NOOOOOOOOOO! ROBERTO KICKED OUT AT TWO! I thought that Veena had won the match there, but I guess it wasn’t meant to be. Veena doesn’t look happy that the Adams Family spear didn’t get her the win.

Deadprez: Veena looks like she wants to beat the crap out of the referee, BUT LOOK AT THE APRON! WHAT THE HELL IS THIS? ESMERALDA DE LA ROSA IS ON THE APRON FOR SOME ODD REASON!

Eve: She has Veena’s attention and Veena looks almost amused that Esmeralda has made her presence felt at this point in the match. Veena is glaring at Esmeralda before she starts busting up laughing at Esmeralda.

Gavin Kirkland: Of course Veena would be in hysterics looking at Esmeralda. She knows it won’t be a fair fight. It’s a world class competitor in Veena going face to face with a blonde bimbo in Esmeralda. Esmeralda better just get off the apron before she gets hurt.

Eve: Did the girl crazy Gavin just call a lady a bimbo? I never thought I’d see the day. Gavin is jaded by Veena and what he will never get, but Esmeralda might have heard you because she is getting off the apron to fight another day.

Deadprez: I don’t think it was fear. I think it was because the mission was accomplished because ROBERTO IS BACK TO HIS FEET! ROBERTO GRABS VEENA AND PUSHES HER AGAINST THE ROPES FOR THE O’CONNOR ROLL UP! ROBERTO MIGHT STEAL IT HERE!

ONNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!

TWWWWWWWWWOOOOOO!

Gavin Kirkland: ROBERTO HAS THE TIGHTS! ROBERTO IS CHEATING, REFEREE!! NOT THAT I AM REALLY COMPLAINING. LOOK UP REFEREE!

THHHHHHHHRRRRRREEEEEE!

Eve: VEENA WAS ABLE TO ROLL BACK ENOUGH TO CAUSE ROBERTO TO FALL BACKWARDS AND NOW THE ROLLUP IS REVERSED! ROBERTO’S SHOULDERS ARE DOWN!

ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!

TWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!

Deadprez: TURNABOUT IS FAIR PLAY! NOW VEENA HAS HOLD OF ROBERTO’S TIGHTS FOR LEVERAGE! IS VEENA GOING TO BEAT ROBERTO AT HIS OWN GAME?!?

THHHHHHHHHRRRRREEEEEEE!

Gavin Kirkland: NOPE… DAMN IT! ROBERTO REVERSES THE PIN AGAIN AND AGAIN HE GRABS THE TIGHTS! THIS IS GETTING RIDICULOUS!

ONNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEE!

TWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOO!

Deadprez: VEENA REVERSES AGAIN AND GRABS THE TIGHTS AGAIN! I AM GETTING FUCKING DIZZY WATCHING THESE TWO REVERSE EACH OTHER!

ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!

TWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOO!

Eve: Roberto was able to roll through, but he couldn’t reverse the cover again because they both rolled back into the ropes. More like they went through the ropes AND BOTH COMPETITORS FALL OUT OF THE RING AND TO THE FLOOR!

Gavin Kirkland: Veena went through the bottom and middle ropes while Roberto fell through the middle and top ropes and they both landed in the same place. Outside the ring. Hold on! They are right in front of us. Perfect time for me to check up on Veena.

Eve: Please just sit here and finish calling this match. Veena and Roberto already have made asses out of themselves. So they really don’t need your help in that regard.

Deadprez: I am surprised the referee didn’t catch either of them with their underhanded tactics, but be that as it may, both competitors are getting back to their feet as the referee is counting them both out.

Gavin Kirkland: Veena and Roberto are just glaring at each other as Veena starts backing up and gets back into the ring. See! Veena is being kind and generous as she motions for Roberto to enter the ring.

Eve: If I was Roberto, I wouldn’t trust Veena as far as I could throw her. Roberto is eyeing Veena closely as he jumps on the apron and tells her to back up. Surprisingly, Veena does back up as Roberto walks through the ropes–

Deadprez: THAT DIDN’T LAST LONG AS VEENA RUNS BACK IN AND GRABS ROBERTO BY THE HAIR AND PULLS HIM BACK INTO THE RING AND STARTS BEATING THE CRAP OUT OF HIM WITH THOSE MMA STYLE STRIKES!

Gavin Kirkland: AND ROBERTO IS STARTING TO FIGHT BACK! WE THOUGHT THAT THINGS WERE GOING TO BREAK DOWN OUTSIDE THE RING AND INSTEAD THEY BROKE DOWN IN THE RING!

Deadprez: The Champion and her Challenger are just beating the holy hell out of each other with the brawl going on in the ring. Veena tried to take a shortcut, but Roberto is fighting back UNTIL VEENA CATCHES ROBERTO WITH A THUMB TO THE EYE!

Eve: It was done right in front of the referee, but it was so quick, the referee didn’t see it. Roberto is holding his eye after that cheap trick as Veena turns Roberto around and uses her power TO LIFT HIM UP FOR A GERMAN SUPLEX–

Gavin Kirkland: ROBERTO WAS ABLE TO LAND ON HIS FEET! Roberto delivers a kick to the back of Veena’s knee to get her off balance long enough for him to hit the ropes. Roberto comes back as Veena turns around.

Eve: Veena went for another Kesagiri chop, BUT ROBERTO GOT OUT OF THE WAY! Roberto hits the ropes on the other side before he comes back and Veena tries to quickly turn around–

Deadprez: IT WASN’T FAST ENOUGH AS SHE WAS CAUGHT WITH A SPEAR! “TALON DE ÁGUILA” BY ROBERTO DE LA ROSA! ROBERTO USES VEENA’S OWN FAMILY SPEAR AGAINST HER! VEENA IS DOWN AND ROBERTO GOES FOR THE COVER!

ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEE!

TWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOO!

THHHHHHRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEE!

Gavin Kirkland: YES! YES! THANK GAWD YES! VEENA WAS ABLE TO NUDGE HER SHOULDER OFF THE CANVAS ENOUGH FOR THE REFEREE TO STOP THE COUNT AT TWO! WOOOOOOOOO! THIS MATCH CONTINUES ON!

Eve: I will give these two a lot of credit. They have been throwing everything the had at each other all for the sake of the National Elite Champion. Look at Veena! Veena is trying to hide it, but I was able to catch a glimpse of her holding her back.

Deadprez: I guess the effects of the submission earlier are starting to come back and haunt her as this match has gone on. Roberto is the first one back to his feet as he grabs Veena and brings her back to her feet.

Gavin Kirkland: Roberto grabs Veena and whips her into the turnbuckle. Roberto quickly follows suit and he stops right in front of Veena and… puts his fist in the air? What the hell is this weirdo doing?

Deadprez: I don’t know either, but Veena decides to look up at Roberto’s left hand BEFORE HE COMES BACK AND PUNCHES HER IN THE JAW WITH HIS RIGHT! I THINK THEY CALL THAT A BOP AND BANG!

Eve: The referee tells Roberto to lay off the closed fists and Roberto grabs Veena and brings her back to her feet. Roberto whips Veena to the ropes and SHE DUCKS THE BIG BOOT FROM ROBERTO!

Gavin Kirkland: Veena hits the ropes on the other side and she looks ready to hit another spear possibly, BUT WHAT THE HELL IS THIS!

Eve: LA FAMILIA! BRIANNA HILL GRABS VEENA’S LEG AND TRIPS HER UP AS VEENA GOES FACE FIRST INTO THE MAT! VEENA IS TRYING TO QUICKLY RECOVER BUT ROBERTO GRABS HER!

Deadprez: ROBERTO LIFTS HER UP IN THE AIR BEFORE HE DROPS DOWN WITH THE PILEDRIVER! “THE CALLING CARD” SPIKES VEENA ON THE TOP OF HER HEAD AND ROBERTO LOOKS TO GO FOR THE COVER—

Gavin Kirkland: THE REFEREE IS WITH LA FAMILIA! The Familia doesn’t have much in the brains department because the referee caught Brianna tripping Veena and they are arguing with the referee—

Referee: LA FAMILIA! YOU! ARE! OUT OF HERE!

Eve: THIS CHANGES THE COMPLEXION OF THE MATCH! LA FAMILIA HAS BEEN EJECTED FROM THE MATCH AND THEY HAVE TO GO BACK TO THE LOCKER ROOM!

Deadprez: LA FAMILIA IS PISSED AND THEY ARE SCREAMING AT THE REFEREE AND ROBERTO CAN’T BELIEVE IT! HE LOST HIS FAMILIA AND HIS BACK UP!

Gavin Kirkland: WHY IN THE HELL AREN’T THEY LEAVING! GET SECURITY OUT HERE! THEY WERE TRYING TO CHEAT VEENA!

Deadprez: LOOK WHO IS COMING DOWN THE RAMP! IT’S RYAN WILSON AND NIKKI KIMURA! LA FAMILIA DOESN’T REALIZE THEY ARE HERE BECAUSE THEY ARE STILL ARGUING WITH THE REF.

Eve: THEY KNOW NOW! AS THEY ATTACK LA FAMILIA FROM BEHIND! INTERESTING DEVELOPMENT AS RYAN AND NIKKI TAKE ON LA FAMILIA’S LUIS DE LA ROSA ALONG WITH RAEANGEL GUZMAN LATER TONIGHT IN A MEXICAN STREET FIGHT!

Gavin Kirkland: It looks like the fight is going to start early as we have a brawl going on at ringside with Ryan and Nikki. La Familia got a breakaway AND THEY ARE RUNNING! THEY ARE GETTING OUT OF HERE WITH RYAN AND NIKKI HOT ON THEIR HEELS!

Deadprez: RYAN, NIKKI, AND LA FAMILIA ARE GOING ALL THE WAY TO THE BACK AND THAT LEAVES ROBERTO AND VEENA ALL ALONE. ONE ON ONE!

Eve: Roberto is not happy that La Familia were thrown out of the match as well as attacked. Roberto is getting in the face of the referee and the referee is telling him that the decision is final. Roberto brushes off the referee and turns back to Veena—

Gavin Kirkland: BAHAHAHHAHA! VEENA GOT THE SPEAR AGAIN! HER UNCLE WOULD BE SO PROUD! ROBERTO BOUNCES OFF THE ROPES AND VEENA GRABS HIM AGAIN BY THE HEAD BEFORE SHE HITS THE SPINNING HEADLOCK ELBOW DROP!

Eve: “A DARK TURN” BY THE NATIONAL ELITE CHAMPION AND ROBERTO WAS DRIVEN HEAD FIRST INTO THE MAT! THE ARGUMENT WITH THE REFEREE GAVE VEENA ALL THE TIME SHE NEEDED TO RECOVER! Now the Champion is dragging Roberto over to the corner.

Deadprez: Veena is done playing around as she once again looks to make her way to the top rope. There she climbs.

Gavin Kirkland: VEENA IS BACK ON THE TOP ROPE AND SHE IS LOOKING TO FINISH THIS MATCH ONCE AND FOR ALL! THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT SHE WILL AS ROBERTO IS STILL DOWN AS SHE FLIPS OFF THE TOP ROPE!

Eve: SHE GOT IT! “FATAL VOW” CONNECTS! SHE GOT ALL OF THE DOUBLE FOOT STOMP AFTER THE MOONSAULT AND SHE DROVE HER BOOTS RIGHT INTO THE HEART OF ROBERTO DE LA ROSA AS VEENA DROPS DOWN FOR THE COVER!

ONNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEE!

TWWWWWWWWWWOOOOO!

THHHHHHHRRRRREEEEEEEE!

(DING! DING! DING!)

(“7 Rings” starts playing again as Veena slowly starts to roll off of Roberto. She sits on the mat to try and catch a breather as Gina Romano begins to announce the final decision of the match.)

Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen! The winner of this contest…

Gina Romano: AND STILLLLLLLLLLL the Elite Answers Wrestling National Elite Champion! VEEEEEEEEEEEEENA AAAAAAAAADAAAAAMMMMMMSS!

Eve: Whether you like either one of them or you don’t, this was certainly an amazing match to kick off Midsummer Massacre. Both competitors brought their all for the chance to leave St. Louis as the National Elite Champion.

Deadprez: Both competitors tried to use a couple of shortcuts against the other, but it wasn’t a shortcut that decided this match. It was straight wrestling as the Champion successfully retains her title here tonight.

(Veena finally makes it back to her feet as the referee gets the title belt and hands it to Veena before raising her arm in victory. Seconds later, she snatches her arm away and looks at the referee in disgust before turning to a still down Roberto and gives him a look of equal disgust as she leaves the ring and heads up the entrance ramp.)

Gavin Kirkland: I told you this was going to happen. It’s like I prayed for it and it happened. This is a great day! Veena Adams is still the National Elite Champion and she got some payback for that lowdown attack from La Familia.

Eve: But you have to give Roberto credit for the effort he showed in this match. He was dangerously close to winning the match and the title. He tried to use La Familia in the end and it was their ejection from ringside that was his ultimate downfall. But he did show that he is no doubt a very talented competitor.

Deadprez: Roberto fought hard, but it was Veena Adams who continues her very successful reign. Congrats once again to Veena for the victory here at Midsummer Massacre.

(Veena stops about halfway up the entrance ramp before she turns around and holds her title high in the air to sounds of boos while the referee is still checking on Roberto. She has an egotistical smirk on her face.)

Gavin Kirklannd: Hold the title up proud, queen!

(As Veena Adams continues to raise her title looking back at the crowd, getting a mix of reviews standing triumphant, blowing a kiss to the crowd when suddenly “True Love” by CFO$ starts to play throughout the arena cutting off her celebration.)

Gavin Kirkland: WHAT!? DID THE JADED HEARTS JUST CUT OFF VEENA ADAM’S CELEBRATION!?

Deadprez: THEY SURE AS HELL DID!

Eve: LOOK AT VEENA! SHE IS NOT HAPPY!

(Veena’s facial expression turns into an extreme scowl as she slowly turns around and sees Kassidy Heart and Sienna Jade, the Unified Tag Team Champions come out as they are the hosts of Midsummer Massacre. THEY HAVE MICS IN HAND BUT Veena is not impressed.)

Eve: THE HOSTS OF MIDSUMMER MASSACRE ARE HERE! AND HOW DISRESPECTFUL TO THE NATIONAL ELITE CHAMPION!

Deadprez: AMD YOU KNOW THIS WAS ON PURPOSE, THE HISTORY BETWEEN VEENA ADAMS AND KASSIDY HEART IS WELL DOCUMENTED, SHE IS THE AUNT OF VEENA AND THERE IS NO SECRET THAT THEY DESPISE ONE ANOTHER!

Gavin Kirkland: IS THAT NOT THE COLLECTION OF THREE OF THE HOTTEST WOMEN IN THE EAW!

Eve: Gavin, get some ice.

(Veena gets right in the face of Kassidy Heart as the two stare at one another, Kassidy cracks a smirk and Veena is not amused. But then Sienna Jade quickly wedges herself between Kassidy and Veena, glaring right into her blue eyes.)

Deadprez: WAIT A SECOND! Sienna Jade has just wedged herself between Aunt and Niece! Veena is shaking her head and look at Sienna Jade! Look at what she is staring at!

(Sienna’s eyes are on the National Elite Championship as Veena lifts it up in the air. The two stare at one another as Sienna smiles but Veena wants no part of it, walking away to the back bumping Sienna on the shoulder as she leaves.)

Gavin Kirkland: There is some major tension there, but Veena Adams retains, and our hosts are here!)

(The music dies down as the Tag Team Champions look out into the dols out crowd.)

Kassidy Heart: St. Louis, Missouri!

(The fans jump up to their feet and cheer.)

Sienna Jade: Your BBQ sucks!

(And those cheers quickly turn to boos.)

Sienna Jade: Anywaaays! We are the hosts for Midsummer Massacre, so welcome! We have some really big matches tonight, okay, a bit underwhelming and mediocre if I am to be honest.

Kassidy Heart: I think the word you are looking for is MID.

Sienna Jade: You are too kind bestie. We are here to spice up this show and actually make it watchable. We just saw the opening match between wanna-be Kassidy Heart and some Mexican drug dealer. Anyways, tonight is going to be spectacular because WE are here and at least for you that are live won’t feel like you wasted whatever hard earned money you make working at McDonald’s or 7-11. That is why we are here to save this Marquee Event!

(Both women laugh as the crowd boos.)

Kassidy Heart: All of you are privileged right now to be in our presence. Let’s be honest, The Jaded hearts should be defending their Unified Tag Team Championships tonight. This show should be built around us, but instead there were no teams that were brave enough to face us, oh boo-hoo. That’s fine, so we have the power tonight to host the show instead and that is exactly what we are going to do, the Jaded Hearts are taking over!

Sienna Jade: Boo all you want, but it’s the facts and truth. We are here to enhance your experience and look at the matches we have tonight, The Universal Women’s Championship is on the line between Milli Banks and Harper Lee!

(Kassidy and Sienna both look at one another.)

Kassidy Heart: :mjlol2:

Sienna Jade: :mjlol2:

Kassidy Heart: That sounds like a stinker. The Answers World Championship is on the line in a Steel Cage match as well in the Main Event.

Sienna Jade: YYYAAAWWWNNNNNNN! What about the Fatal Five-Way?

Kassidy Heart: That is going to be a great match, for the person that is defending their titles against.

Sienna Jade: :mjlol: Oh… oh… and Jon Kelton taking on Bronson Daniels in an Ironman Match, is Kelton going to finish the story against the guy that cleaned out all the minorities from having a career on Dynasty!?

Kassidy Heart: HA HA HA HA HA HA HA! What a bunch of losers! We are being told to wrap it up? Are you serious? We don’t wrap up anything, The Jaded Hearts work on our time, but do not worry, we will be back later as your hosts so enjoy whatever crap is next!

Sienna Jade: Yeah yeah…. Whatever!

(“True Love” by CFO$ blasts throughout the arena as Kassidy and Sienna turn to each other and kiss on the cheeks lifting one leg up. They then turn around and lift the Unified Tag team Championships high as the crowd boos.)

Deadprez: Not gonna lie, dawg, this might be a long night with the Jaded Hearts hosting Midsummer Massacre. They are talented, they are beautiful, two Hall of Famers, but boy are they hating.

Gavin Kirkland: Who cares, they might be taken, but they are a sight to see and are two of the greatest women to ever grace us in the ring! They can talk for all three hours, and we will all be here watching in anticipation!

Eve: Let’s not go that far, these two are egomaniacs that deserve nothing and are only using this great Marquee Event to push their own agenda! I wish Veena would have slapped those two in the mouth, disrespectful bitches.

Gavin Kirkland: :whoa:

Eve: Shut up Gavin, let’s get to our next match and cut that shitty theme song off. We are being told the next match is ready.

(The camera pans to ringside with Gina Romano ready to introduce the next match as the graphic appears.)

(https://i.ibb.co/cCTmgvx/Ryan-Nikkivs-Luis-Raeangel.png)

Gina Romano: THE FOLLOWING CONTEST IS THE MEXICAN STREET FIGHT! WE NOW TAKE YOU TO THE SCENE OF WHERE THE MATCH WILL TAKE PLACE BETWEEN RYAN JOSEPH WILSON AND NIKKI KIMURA TAKING ON LUIS DE LE ROSA AND RAEANGEL GUZMAN!

(After the scuffle during the first match, the camera fades to a Mexican-American neighborhood in St. Louis, Missouri only a few blocks from the arena. A yellow tinted Mexico filter is shown being applied to the video production to make sure all viewers are aware this is indeed a Mexican themed Street Fight.)

Eve: Well, we are now taking a detour outside of Chaifetz Arena as La Familia’s Luis De La Rosa & Raeangel Guzman are scheduled to face off against Ryan Wilson & Nikki Kimura in a Street Fight! We saw a scuffle just minutes ago but they were able to transport them now to the area where the match will be. And it looks like they are about to literally take it to the streets!!!

(The camera cuts to a cul-de-sac where a crowd has gathered around a wrestling ring that has been set up. The crowd is all wearing La Familia t-shirts as many of them are shown hitting the ring with weapons and calling for Ryan & Nikki’s blood.)

Gavin Kirkland: Damn this doesn’t look safe for my precious waifu Nikki Kimura. She should just forfeit the match and protect her fine self.

(Luis De La Rosa and Raeangel Guzman are shown in the ring as a DJ who has a booth set up near the ring is shown playing ‘Peligro’ by Peso Pluma. Luis is hyping the crowd up as they become even more rabid.)

Luis De La Rosa: ¡Orale mi gente! ¡Vamos a matar a los gringos! We gonna make em bleed tonight carnales!!!

(The crowd roars in approval and hype but it suddenly turns to boos as the opponents are shown arriving to ringside. The DJ stops playing the music immediately as they are not granted entrance music and are forced to walk to the ring in silence being glared down by the La Familia fans surrounding the ring.)

Luis De La Rosa: Looks like y’all took a wrong turn eh cabrones? What are you doing here? You don’t belong here pendej-

Deadprez: But Ryan Wilson just ran up into the ring and slapped the shit out of Luis De La Rosa! Ryan is not going to tolerate his intimidation tactics and he won’t back down!

Eve: The referee is calling for the bell and this match is immediately underway as Nikki Kimura is rushed by Raeangel Guzman outside the ring before she can even get in!

(DING! DING! DING!)

Eve: This match is now underway as Ryan Wilson is in the ring facing off with Luis De La Rosa! On the outside of the ring Nikki Kimura & Raeangel Guzman are brawling around ringside! Luis reaches into his pants and pulls out a fork as he begins to try to stab Ryan with it! But Ryan dodges it quickly as Luis slides the fork back into his pants! Ryan now looking to take advantage here as he grabs the arm of Luis and tosses him across the ring. Luis rolls back up to his feet and catches Ryan tossing him across the ring with a Hurricanrana! Ryan gets thrown across the ring but rolls back up to his feet looking to throw down once more. Luis grabs his fork again as he stabs repeatedly into the gut of Ryan and nails him several times successfully stabbing Ryan as he looks to draw blood!

Deadprez: Meanwhile outside the ring Raeangel Guzman has a metal spike and she is slamming it into the shoulder of Nikki Kimura! But Kimura with a Roundhouse Kick sends the spike flying away. But Guzman catches it and tucks it back into her pants as Kimura charges in at her. Guzman takes a hard Spear right to the hard concrete ground! There is no padding to protect her in this Mexican Street Fight! Her back just might have been from the sheer force of that attack by Nikki! The crowd in the arena is fully behind her as Nikki continues to stomp away at Guzman outside the ring! But the crowd that La Familia has gathered around the ring are not pleased!

Eve: Back inside the ring Ryan Wilson managed to dodge a stabbing from the fork of Luis De La Rosa and then kicks him in the side! With Raeangel Guzman down on the outside and Luis De La Rosa down on the inside this Mexican Street Fight has taken a sad turn for Luis & Raeangel! Nikki Kimura tosses Raeangel back into the ring so Ryan can get a few shots in on her too. Nikki and Ryan both pick their opponents up and connect with Suplexes in the middle of the ring.

Deadprez: Wait Luis De La Rosa just threw a fireball into the eyes of Ryan Wilson! Ryan is screaming now as his face is burning up! The referee is checking on him, but Luis shoves the official away and gets in some shots! Nikki Kimura successfully hit her Suplex on Raeangel Guzman so now she is coming after Luis, but Luis throws a fireball into her face as well! Nikki goes down screaming as well! Luis is laughing in the ring as he is mutilating his opponents out here tonight! Luis is doing La Familia proud with this one! Luis goes for the first cover of the match on Nikki!

Referee: UNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOO-

Gavin Kirkland: Wow the kickout right away from Nikki Kimura! She must have a lot of stamina… She could prolly go all night long!

Eve: I agree she does seem well conditioned to go all night long… in the ring which is I am sure what you meant Gavin.

Deadprez: Raeangel Guzman appears to be recovering now as she reaches into her pocket and slips on a pair of brass knuckles. Raeangel now climbs on top of Ryan Wilson and begins unloading shots right to his face with those brass knuckles! Those things are often enough to end a match when they get used once! Raeangel is going to give this man Ryan severe CTE!

Eve: Luis De La Rosa now going after Nikki Kimura and throws her shoulder first into the turnbuckle pole! Nikki falls through the ropes and out onto the apron as Luis grabs her and pulls her in through the ropes and connects with a Hanging DDT! Luis gets all of it but he’s not done with Nikki who is somehow already getting back up! Luis grabs Nikki and connects with a Suplex! Luis rolls through and connects with another Suplex! And another Suplex! Luis with the Three Amigos here in the middle of the ring as he goes up to the top rope! But then Luis decides not to jump off the top rope and instead just picks Nikki up for a fourth Suplex and then goes for a pin! Good idea for Luis to play it safe Nikki prolly would have moved or some shit.

Referee: UNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN-

Eve: Nikki Kimura still kicks out at one! Luis De La Rosa looks annoyed. I think he was hoping to put this match away quickly tonight. But that is not going to happen with a wrestler the caliber of Nikki Kimura! Raeangel Guzman has busted Ryan Wilson open with those brass knuckles in the ring as she goes for a cover as well…

Referee: UNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-

Deadprez: Ryan Wilson is not ready to give up fighting either! Raeangel looks a bit shook that she pummeled him with brass knuckles and only got a one count. Ryan’s skull must be very resilient. La Familia appears to have taken control of the match once again. They toss Nikki & Ryan out of the ring and the fine Mexican gentlemen who they have assembled around the ring out there are now stomping down Nikki & Ryan!

Gavin Kirkland: Those thugs are beating down my beloved Nikki Kimura! This is a gang initiation!

Eve: :damn:

Deadprez: :damn:

Eve: You might fit in better on Dynasty Gavin.

Gavin Kirkland: No! I can’t be drafted right now! I need to drive out to wherever that is and save her!

Deadprez: That’s why I took your keys away remember?

Gavin Kirkland: :mjcry: !!!

Eve: I think it is clear that La Familia has stacked the odds against their opponents here tonight! They are fighting them on their home turf and now Luis De La Rosa & Raeangel Guzman are getting out of the ring to get in their shots on Ryan & Nikki as well! They are getting beaten down and mobbed by everyone out here around the ring! I don’t know if they can overcome numbers like this!-

Deadprez: You might have spoken too soon Eve! Ryan & Nikki are now fighting back against the crowd! They just laid out several of the people surrounding the ring and now they are going after Luis & Raeangel again! Luis falls over in surprise as he did not expect them to overcome the odds! Nikki lunges at Raeangel and tackles her down twisting her into an Armbar! Nikki has the wrist of Raeangel as she reaches into her pants and pulls out that metal spike! Nikki is going to break the wrist of Raeangel here!

Eve: And now Nikki Kimura with the metal spike! Nikki repeatedly drives the spike into the hand of Raeangel Guzman! Guzman is screaming in pain, but Nikki then yanks the arm backwards and I think I just heard a popping noise!

Deadprez: Oh god that is disgusting to look at! I think that Raeangel just had her shoulder forcibly dislocated by Nikki Kimura! Nikki is laughing and smiling clearly pleased at having heard that popping sound and is enjoying listening to Raeangel’s screams of pain!

Gavin Kirkland: Ryan Wilson broke free also and is slamming Luis’ head into the pavement! Ryan beating down Luis here, but the crowd is getting back up and they are pulling Ryan away! Ryan is being dragged off by the crowd! Ryan is being taken somewhere and he might be eliminated from this match entirely! Luis is back up and he is directing traffic! Luis telling the crowd what to do with Ryan as they slam him back first into the pavement and then begin dragging him across the street away from the ring! The referee is trying to tell them to get back to the ring, but Luis has other ideas!

Luis De La Rosa: (off-mic) Hermanos… lock this gringo up in the trunk!

Eve: Ryan Wilson now is being stuffed into the trunk of a car! If Luis can get him in there then he will be effectively eliminated from this matchup! But Ryan is fighting back! Luis tries to slam the trunk closed but Ryan kicks back sending Luis and several of this crowd flying backwards! Luis tries to close the trunk, but Ryan slams his hand into the trunk as it closes! The trunk bounces off the hand of Luis as he screams in pain and falls backwards but the trunk doesn’t closed! Ryan almost got kidnapped there! Ryan is out of the car now and he lunges off the bumper and connects with a Tornado DDT spiking Luis hard onto the pavement! Ryan with the cover!

Referee: UNOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Referee: D-

Deadprez: Luis De La Rosa kicks out! But Luis’ forehead is now bloody from that DDT right into the concrete! Luis is taking a severe beating out here!

Eve: Meanwhile back in the ring Nikki Kimura is still beating down Raeangel Guzman! Guzman has a dislocated shoulder and has had one arm effectively neutralized. The referee is in the ring asking Guzman if she wants to quit but she refuses! Kimura stomps hard on her shoulder before going up to the middle rope… Flying Crossbody from Nikki! Raeangel tries to catch her… but her arm gives out! Nikki connects with the Crossbody-

Deadprez: No! Raeangel rolled through! Raeangel with one arm manages to lift Nikki up and throws her backwards with a Fallaway Slam! Raeangel back up now as she forcibly relocates her shoulder popping it back into the socket! Raeangel with a sadistic look on her face as if Nikki only managed to piss her off by dislocating her shoulder! Raeangel grabs Nikki by the hair and picks her back up… Sit Down Powerbomb from Raeangel as she drops her down hard in the ring! Raeangel with the cover!

Referee: UNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

Gavin Kirkland: But somehow my queen Nikki Kimura only kicks out at one! I only wish I could be out there by her side…

Eve: You are more than welcome to join the Spanish commentary team. It seems they have set their table up out there for some reason tonight.

(A camera shot is shown of the Spanish commentary table which has been set up in the cul-de-sac near the ring. However, one of the commentators is shown wearing dark sunglasses and a bandana around their face strangely masking their identity.)

Deadprez: I wonder if the table will get destroyed during the match. We will see. But right now, Raeangel is determined to destroy Nikki! Ryan is also dragging Luis back to the ring! Luis is tossed into the ring by Ryan, but Raeangel lunges out of the ring with a Suicide Dive taking Ryan down! Raeangel grabs Ryan and tosses him back into the ring and it looks like all competitors are back into the ring once again!

(Luis De La Rosa is shown on his knees as he begs Ryan to stay away from him and offers him a spot in La Familia if he leaves him alone.)

Luis De La Rosa: (off-mic) Lo siento senor Ryan. I didn’t do nothing to you amigo. Come on now join La Familia and we can celebrate together!

Ryan Wilson: (off-mic) :francis:

Luis De La Rosa: (off-mic) Oh so it’s like tha-

Eve: Luis suddenly hits Ryan with a Low Blow! Ryan crumbles down to the mat as Luis gets back up and celebrates like he just won the World Title. But Nikki Kimura with a Roundhouse Kick takes Luis down! But Raeangel from behind jumps onto the back of Nikki. Nikki runs at full speed into the ropes nailing Raeangel and knocking her off. Nikki then grabs Raeangel and whips her hard into Luis who is slowly getting back up. They both collide in the middle of the ring! Nikki & Ryan both fall on top of their opponents for a double pin! The referee is counting them down with both hands!!!

Referee: UNOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Referee: DOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!

Referee: TREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-

Deadprez: Both Raeangel and Luis kick out at the same time! The match continues on! Nikki tosses Luis out of the ring while Ryan continues to beat down Raeangel in the ring stomping a mudhole into her in the corner. Nikki grabs the leg of Luis and drags him over to a trash can placed outside one of the houses. Nikki opens up the trashcan and pulls a trashbag out causing it to spill everywhere. Nikki now trying to throw Luis into the trash! Nikki is trying to stuff him into the trashcan and this is what Luis deserves after trying to kidnap Ryan earlier-

Gavin Kirkland: But Luis fights back and rakes the eyes of Nikki! Now Luis is trying to throw Nikki into the trash! Nikki is thrown face first into the trash can! But she reaches into the trash can and grabs something!

(SMASH!)

Eve: Nikki Kimura with a glass bottle and she just shattered it over the head of Luis De La Rosa! Luis is bleeding more than ever as Nikki has sliced and diced him with that glass!

Gavin Kirkland: Nikki just busted Luis open with a tequila bottle! She is beating the hell out of him and trying to throw him into the trash can!

Eve: Wait how could you tell it was a tequila bottle? She smashed it over his head as soon as she grabbed it I couldn’t even tell. Are you assuming it was just because this is a Mexican Street Fight :mjpls:

Deadprez: :mjpls:

Gavin Kirkland: :whoa: !!!

Eve: Nikki Kimura is now dragging Luis De La Rosa face first across the pavement! She’s grinding his face into the concrete leaving a bloody trail! Wait where the hell is she going?

Deadprez: But Luis’ fans are jumping her! The crowd that Luis has gathered around the ring is interfering again! Nikki might be able to get a win for a minute here, but she cannot overcome the full force of La Familia and all of their allies!

Gavin Kirkland: I told you! She needs my help! Give me my keys back!

Luis De La Rosa: (off-mic) Get me the club. We are going to BEAT her La Familia style!

(WOP WOP WOP WOP WOP)

(Luis De La Rosa is handed a nightstick as he begins to whack away at Nikki Kimura on the ground. He then drags her across the pavement getting some payback for what she did before.)

Eve: But look in the ring now! Ryan Wilson just connected with a Moonsault off the top rope onto Raeangel Guzman! Ryan has managed to maintain control of this situation here as he goes for the cover on Raeangel! The referee slides in to make the count and Luis might not even know what is going on here!

Referee: UNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Referee: DOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!

Referee: TRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEESSS!!!-

Deadprez: But Raeangel Guzman manages to kick out! She’s still alive in this thing!

Eve: But Nikki Kimura might not be for long! Luis is bringing Nikki over to the Spanish commentary table as one of the commentators flees knowing what is coming. Luis drags Nikki up on top of the commentary table as he looks to Piledrive her into it. However, suddenly Luis looks confused by the commentator who is still sitting there wearing dark sunglasses and a bandana to hide their true identity.

???: Do it Luis! Mi amor! Drop her headfirst through the table! Break her neck!

Luis De La Rosa: (off-mic) Persephone? What are you doing here? Isn’t this a Showdown PPV?

???: No entiendo. What are you talking about? I am Persephone’s adopted twin sister Paquita. I work for the Showdown Spanish commentary team. At least tonight… if that’s what it takes…

(Luis De La Rosa shrugs before dropping Nikki Kimura with a Piledriver through the Spanish commentary table.)

Deadprez: No! Nikki Kimura had more than enough time to counter! She throws Luis backwards with a Back Body Drop sending him flying off the table and landing on the pavement next to the table! Luis’ spine just got smashed from that move right there!

Gavin Kirkland: Paquita looks horrified! I don’t think that she expected her presence to backfire like that! You can tell that she deeply cares about Luis’ well being which is strange because I have never seen them interact before!

Eve: I’m pretty sure she doesn’t even work here and I have never seen anyone named that backstage in my life. But regardless, Nikki Kimura now turns around and pulls herself up on the table as Luis is slowly getting back up! Nikki runs off the table and lunges onto Luis and connects with a Corkscrew Crossbodoy onto Luis on the ground! She falls on top for the cover!

Referee: …

Deadprez: But the referee is still in the ring where Ryan Wilson has Raeangel Guzman in a headlock in the middle of the ring! Ryan has had Raeangel in a rest hold for so long that we stopped paying attention to what they were doing over there completely.

Referee: Oh damn there’s a pin over there. FUCK!

(The referee leaves the ring to sprint over at full speed to make the count as Nikki is pinning Luis next to the Spanish commentary table.)

Referee: UNOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Referee: DOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!

Referee: TR-

Eve: But the referee was too late! Luis kicks out! And now Luis’ friends are jumping Nikki again! Wait what the hell? One of them just got knocked out with a soccer ball flying into the head?

(Luis’ goons turn around in surprise as a group of women wearing Nikki Kimura shirts are shown walking into the cul-de-sac carrying weapons.)

Deadprez: Who the hell are these people?

Gavin Kirkland: I know who they are! It’s Nikki Kimura’s old soccer team from Japan! Nikki called in backup for this match! I used to watch their games all the time…

Eve: You a big fan of Japanese soccer huh?

Gavin Kirkland: Indeed. :troll:

Deadprez: And now Nikki Kimura’s former soccer team is attacking Luis De La Rosa’s friends and this thing has turned into an all-out brawl! The team came walking through with barbed wire baseball bats and metal spikes and they are stabbing Luis’ friends!

(Luis is shown waking up on the pavement looking on in confusion. Ryan Wilson is also confused in the ring where he still has Raeangel in a rest hold, but he seems to approve of what is happening.)

Gavin Kirkland: These fine ass Japanese ladies are beating the hell out of Luis’ Mexican homies! The race war has begun! Is Alexander Da Vinci booking this?

Eve: But as a result of this the odds have been evened! While everyone is brawling around outside the ring Nikki Kimura has grabbed Luis by the hair and is dragging him back towards the ring! Nikki throws Luis back into the ring and by this point it looks like Ryan Wilson has basically fallen asleep from holding onto his own rest hold for too long. But Nikki is waking him back up to get him back into the game! Nikki picks Luis up and along with Ryan drops him with a Double Flapjack in the middle of the ring! Ryan goes to the cover!

Referee: UNOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Referee: DOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!

Referee: TR-

Deadprez: The kickout by Luis! Luis is taking a beating but is somehow surviving. It looks like Raeangel Guzman is completely unconscious in the ring having been in a Headlock for like ten minutes and it looks like Ryan is going to try pinning her! It is worth a shot!

Referee: UNOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Referee: DOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!

Referee: TR-

Gavin Kirkland: But Raeangel Guzman kicks out! It looks like she must not have been completely unconscious! But things are not looking good for La Familia! My love and positive vibes have been sent to Nikki to will her to keep fighting on!!! Nikki is my kawaii princess. <3 <3 <3

Eve: I will let her know you said that and see if she agrees after tonight’s show. If she survives that is because in a match like this death is definitely a possibility! It looks like as the fighting continues out there on the streets the police have even shown up as we can hear sirens in the distance.

(The police are shown arriving as EAW officials are discussing with them what is going on informing them that it is an official Midsummer Massacre sanctioned event.)

Luis De La Rosa: (off-mic) No! Get them away! La policía son demonios! I won’t go back to prison again!

Eve: Has Luis actually been in prison before?

Gavin Kirkland: Of course, Eve. He is a hardened inmate. But he won’t allow himself to be captured unlike that weak ass viejo El Mayo.

(Luis De La Rosa is shown trying to escape beneath the ring but his leg is captured by Nikki Kimura and dragged out from beneath the ring.)

Deadprez: Wait Luis didn’t come back out of the ring alone! He has a weapon! Luis has a can of our beloved sponsor Minute Maid Aguas Frescas and smashes it over the head of Nikki Kimura!!!

(Luis is shown looking in confusion at what he pulled out from underneath the ring before placing it in the nearby trash can.)

Eve: Ryan Wilson lunges out of the ring and takes out Luis with a Suicide Dive! But Raeangel Guzman on the apron now and takes Ryan down with an Asai Moonsault!!! Raeangel is now looking underneath the ring, and it looks like it is basically 90% cans of Minute Maid Aguas Frescas down there. I guess we weren’t able to sell that shit at concessions and just threw it under there.

Deadprez: Raeangel is shown looking around underneath the ring for an actual weapon and eventually finds a bag which she dumps out in the ring dumping out hundreds of thumbtacks all over the ring.

Gavin Kirkland: Damn they ignored my suggestion that we hang a pinata filled with thumbtacks in the ring. That would’ve been an all-time spot.

Eve: Raeangel Guzman is now dragging Nikki Kimura back into the ring and hurls her over into the thumbtacks! But Nikki does a backflip in midair and manages to avoid them and falls over into the corner! Raeangel charges in leaping over the pile of tacks as well as she charges in at Nikki in the corner! But Nikki with a Drop Toe Hold sending Raeangel face first into the corner! Nikki leaps up to the top rope as Raeangel stands up and throws her across the ring with a Hurricanrana but Raeangel does a cartwheel around the tacks. It is like they are trying not to step on the lava!

Deadprez: Outside the ring Luis De La Rosa and Ryan Wilson are now getting back up and brawling as they fall backwards towards the Spanish commentary table. Luis with shots to Ryan but Ryan fights right back! They are brawling back and forth! Hard uppercut from Ryan sends Luis sprawling across the pavement. Luis down against the curb now as Ryan charges in with a Curb Stomp to his face!!!-

Eve: But Luis moves out of the way just in time to avoid having his jaw and teeth completely shattered! Ryan might be going a lil too far here! But Luis now taking advantage as he grabs Ryan from behind and throws him into the trash can! Ryan goes diving headfirst into the trash can as Luis closes the lid and keeps it shut! You can hear Ryan banging around on the inside begging for his life! Ryan is suffocating inside in all of that smelly trash!

Luis De La Rosa: (off-mic) You are basura Ryan! And now you have finally gone home! :russlol:

Deadprez: Wait look out back in the ring! Raeangel Guzman just slammed Nikki Kimura back first into the tacks! No! Nikki counters it in midair and drops Raeangel face first into the tacks instead! Nikki lands on the back of Raeangel! Raeangel has tacks sticking out of her face! She is screaming in pain as blood pours down her face!

Gavin Kirkland: Damn she getting poked with everything but what I wanted to poke her with tonight.

Deadprez: Ayo.

Eve: Nikki Kimura is now looking to take full advantage here! Nikki grabs Raeangel and pulls her in… KAMIGOYEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!

Deadprez: Nikki Kimura with that knee strike right to the jaw of Raeangel! Nikki with the cover!!!

Referee: UNOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Referee: DOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!

Referee: TREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!

Eve: NO! LUIS JUST LUNGED INTO THE RING AND BROKE UP THE PINFALL JUST IN TIME!!!

Deadprez: And now we have to acknowledge the situation! Ryan Wilson is still trapped in that trash can as Luis De La Rosa hits a Dragon Suplex dropping Nikki Kimura back first into the thumbtacks in the middle of the ring! Raeangel is slowly recovering, and Nikki is now facing two on one odds!

Gavin Kirkland: I don’t like those odds.

Eve: I imagine that Nikki likes them even less! And now Luis is toying with Nikki picking up individual thumbtacks and inserting them into her skin one by one! Luis what are you even doing?

Deadprez: Luis is enjoying watching the torment of Nikki Kimura, but Nikki just grabbed a thumbtack and shoved it right into the neck of Luis! Luis falls backwards in pain, but Nikki is back up and she is pummeling Luis up against the ropes! Nikki grabs Luis and twists him around…

Eve: The Hooligan Special!!! A Tilt-a-Whirl-Headsissors into the Fujiwara Armbar drops Luis right into the thumbtacks as he screams for help, but he might have no choice but to tap out! Luis can’t even drag himself across the ring because he is lying in a pool of thumbtacks! As he tries to move across the tacks only slice into his skin deeper and deeper! Luis is leaving a trail of blood across the ring as he drags himself towards the ropes!

Deadprez: But this is a Street Fight and the rope breaks ain’t mean shit! Luis is fucked! Luis taps! LUIS TAPS!!!

Gavin Kirkland: NO! Raeangel Guzman caught the hand of Luis De La Rosa before he could tap out! And Raeangel now with a chair shot to the back of Nikki Kimura forcing her to release the hold!!! The numbers game is too much for Nikki to overcome!

Eve: Ryan Wilson needs to find a way out of that trash can. Did Luis lock it or some shit? Like how is he still stuck in there those things are not that strong…

(The camera pans over to the trash can where it is revealed that Luis placed a massive carton of Minute Maid Aguas Frescas on top of the trash can preventing Ryan from escaping. Ryan can be heard desperately trying to escape as he clangs against the side of the trash can.)

Deadprez: Raeangel Guzman drives the chair down hard into the throat of Nikki Kimur-

Eve: No! Nikki Kimura blocks the chair shot and reaches across the ring grabbing a handful of thumbtacks and hurls them into the face of Raeangel Guzman! I think one of them stabbed her in the eye! Raeangel falls back screaming as Nikki grabs the chair!!!

Deadprez: Luis De La Rosa rushes in but gets hit with the chair from Nikki Kimura! Nikki then hits Raeangel Guzman with the chair as well! Nikki is now taking out both opponents single handedly!!! Both Luis and Raeangel roll out of the ring to the outside! But Nikki up to the top rope…

Gavin Kirkland: Nikki Kimura plunges off the top rope with a Flying Corkscrew Splash taking out both opponents down to the pavement!!! Nikki is rolling! She’s doing it all by herself! I guess she didn’t need my help after all!

Eve: Well, there was never any doubt of that.

Gavin Kirkland: The cruelty is real. But it looks like Nikki Kimura’s Japanese soccer team won the fight against Luis’ goons as well! Now Nikki can really turn the tables. I wish that Ryan Wilson brought some backup too I wanted to see some Canadians up in here beating people down with hockey sticks and wearing Drake t-shirts. The race war will not be complete until this occurs.

Deadprez: I guess you will have to keep on dreaming then. Because it looks like Nikki Kimura is not going to be taking advantage of her opponents like that. Unlike Luis she is an honorable competitor! Honorable… but very brutal! She is bashing Raeangel Guzman’s head into the side of the curb! And now Nikki is going over to free Ryan from the trash can-

Eve: But Luis De La Rosa from behind with a punch to the back of Nikki Kimura’s head! And Luis was wearing brass knuckles as he did it! Luis now pummeling into the back of Nikki’s head with those brass knuckles. He reaches into his pants and pulls out a fork and begins stabbing into Nikki as well! Luis drawing blood the hard way from the back of Nikki as he is stabbing her maniacally! Luis has snapped! We might have to stop this before Nikki gets murdered by this madman!

Deadprez: But it is completely legal! Wait look out! The trash can just tipped over and Ryan Wilson fell out of it! Ryan is freed but Luis now walking over to him and laughing as he looks at Ryan pulling himself up among the trash.

Luis De La Rosa: (off-mic) Look how far you have fallen Ryan. So pathetic. Honestly you smelled better before I put you in the trash can pendejo.

Gavin Kirkland: But Ryan Wilson spits defiantly into the face of Luis De La Rosa! I am not sure that was a good idea because it only made Luis angry! Luis is now stabbing the face of Ryan and he is drawing blood! Ryan’s entire face is now a crimson mask! Luis is dragging Ryan back into the ring now as he goes for the cover…

Referee: UNOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Referee: DOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!

Referee: TREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!

Eve: Somehow someway Ryan Wilson has managed to kick out! Luis grabs a metal spike and goes to drive it down right into the eye of Rya-

Deadprez: But Ryan Wilson dodges it and headbutts Luis hard! Luis falls backwards as Ryan shoves him into the corner! Ryan rushes in… But Luis dodges out of the way! Luis grabs Ryan and sets him up…

Eve: LUIS LOCKS RYAN INTO THE CARTEL EXECUTION!

Deadprez: No! Ryan dodges in and grabbed the metal spike from Luis! He stabs Luis hard right in the gut as he pulls Luis in by the arm-

Eve: RYAN PULLS LUIS UP AND DROPS HIM!!! MIC DROP CONNECTS!!!! RYAN GOT ALL OF IT! THE COVER!!!

Referee: UNOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Referee: DOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!

Referee: TREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!

(DING! DING! DING!)

Gina Romano: (in the arena) Here are your winners… RYAN WILSONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN AND NIKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKI KIMURRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!

(Olé by The Bouncing Souls hits as Ryan Wilson has his arm raised in the ring as Nikki Kimura is slowly pulling herself back into the ring to have her arm raised as well just realizing what has happened.)

Gavin Kirkland: Damn. The Mexicans lost the Mexican Street Fight. This feels racist.

Eve: Huge win tonight for Ryan Wilson & Nikki Kimura! The odds were stacked against them, but they never stopped fighting, and they overcame them!

Deadprez: Luis tried his best the entire match to humiliate Ryan but in the end it was Luis who took the final fall at Ryan’s hands and ended up humiliating himself.

Eve: Ryan Wilson has been collecting big wins this year and this is just another one to add to the pile. Nikki Kimura is proving that she can hang, and I wouldn’t be shocked to see her in title contention at some point this season!

Deadprez: We have to give props to La Familia too. They were devious and dominant out here and we didn’t exactly know what to expect from Raeangel Guzman in a match like this, but she clearly held her own even if she didn’t come out with the win.

Gavin Kirkland: Congrats to Ryan & Nikki!!! :clap: Hit me up later Nikki! We will celebrate gurrrrl!

Eve: :mjpls:

Deadprez: I am just surprised the Spanish commentary table survived the match. It is a true miracle. :wow:

(The camera cuts to a commercial. Report: EAW gives up on Ronan Malosi.)

(The graphic for the next match appears.)

https://i.ibb.co/MNyWNWn/Rulervs-Cody.png

Gina Romano: THE FOLLOWING CONTEST IS SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL…

(“Prices” by Lil Uzi Vert began to play, he stood on stage for a moment as soon as he walked out, he took in the crowd and then directed his focus in the ring. He then starts to make his way down the ramp.)

Gina Romano: Introducing first, from Boston, Massachusetts, weighing in at 220 pounds! THE RULER OF EVERYTHING!

(Ruler continues his slow walk as the darkness covers the arena, he slowly rolls into the the ring, sitting in the middle of it as a spotlight shines on him.

Deadprez: He has a presence, like a Jack Kirby character come to life, and I know that Ruler is looking to get back on track in singles action on Showdown, will it be tonight?

Eve: He has the tools, a former champion on multiple occasions,.and I feel like he needs to find his way.

Gavin Kirkland: He is downright scary, and honestly, one of the most dangerous men on Showdown. I know that he is looking to end the rise of Cody Maverick really quickly.

(As Ruler’s theme slowly fades, ‘Lord Knows’ by Drake (feat. Rick Ross) plays out Cody Maverick to a positive reaction from fans as he confidently struts to the ring for his match against Ruler, talking shit along the way, and reminding the world that anything can happen.)

Gina Romano: And his opponent!! Hailing out of Las Vegas, Nevada, weighing in at 235 pounds…HE IS THE SIN CITY SUPERSTAR…CODY MAVERICK!!

Deadprez: Talk about a guy on the rise! We are talking about Cody Maverick, Kennedy drafted him for a reason, she knows talent and this guy has it!

Eve: He does, Prez, and is exciting to watch, was almost the 24/7 Contract winner, but he needs to watch the speed of one, Ruler, he can end it in an instance!

Gavin Kirkland: This dude almost has as much swagger as me!

Eve: Oh brother.

(Cody gets in the ring and poses, before turning to Ruler who is ready. Cody takes off his vest, the referee checks both men and rings for hte bell to start.)

(DING! DING! DING!)

Gavin Kirkland: The match has started, and this is shaping up to be a matchup! Cody Maverick, one of Showdown’s hottest stars, is looking to keep his momentum rolling by facing off against The Ruler of Everything! Maverick has made it well known he wasn’t going to let up. He was out to show the world what he could do, and tonight, he has a big message to send against an adamant opponent. Locking up in the center of the ring, they seem to be on equal footing- spoke too soon! Ruler with a side headlock!

Eve: Keeping him in the center of the ring, trying to wear him down early- but Cody not having any of it! Running off the ropes and using the leverage to push him off! Ruler rolls to his feet and stares down at his challenger! Cody will have to get used to that, although he may have the strength to do so. He got to deal with Ruler’s ring awareness with his athleticism and agility! He has accumulated all the skills over time. I’m returning for another lock-up, BUT CODY is GRABBING THE ARM! Twisting it around, managing to get Ruler on one knee!

Deadprez: Cody is twisting that arm up and around his head, making Ruler scramble for some release, that doesn’t seem to be coming soon. Ruler falling back on his knees, trying to relieve that pressure on his arm- RULER ROLLS TO HIS BACK, INTO A KIP-UP! Reversing the hold on his arm, grabbing him instead! Now pulling him into a headlock! Clenching on the skull, managing to get Maverick down to one knee! Ruler is so smart and experienced, knowing how to keep a match at his pace and get back control when he loses it!

Gavin Kirkland: Maverick though, wants to make sure that he isn’t at the mercy of his opponent. Once again, bouncing off the ropes and throwing Ruler off again! Ruler bouncing off the ropes, Cody drops to the mat, Ruler leaps over him, rebounding back- Cody leapfrogs over him! Maverick lands and- RULER WAS WAITING FOR HIM! Taking him to the ground with a leg sweep! Cody Maverick tries to recover but is immediately placed in another headlock! Taking Maverick back to the ground, on one knee…Maverick has got to find a way to counter Ruler’s defense cause right now he is lost.

Eve: That’s easier said than done, Ruler is just too quick, whenever you think you have the upper hand. He manages to regain offense in a blink of an eye! Wait, Maverick managed to lift himself up! Picking up Ruler along with him! HITTING THE BACK BODY DROP! Cody quickly got back to his feet— immediately jumping into a Jackknife Roll-Up!

Referee: ONE!

Referee: …

Eve: Ruler kicking out! Ruler getting back to his feet— right into a kick to the gut! Right hook to the face, a left hook, right hook, taking Ruler back into the corner! Maverick continues the attack in the corner! Stomping Ruler in the midsection!

Gavin Kirkland: The official having to get involved, pushing Cody away from Ruler before the count of five. Would be a terrible way of ending this match, I don’t blame him from stepping in. Cody still going back on the attack- BUT RULER CONNECTS WITH A FOREARM TO THE FACE! Sending Maverick staggering backwards! Ruler coming back with another one, another one, and ANOTHER ONE! Getting out of the corner and getting Cody on the ropes! Now sending a chop to the chest of Cody! Continuing the striking game on the ropes, making him feel every impact!

Eve: Maverick slowly stumbling into the ropes across from him, Ruler not giving up on him! Sending another chop to his chest, making him crouch down! Maverick needs a breather but Ruler isn’t about to give him any room to breath! Sending a elbow down to the back of the head! Sending him staggering to the next set of ropes nearest to him! Ruler following him behind- KICKING HIM IN THE GUT! Ruler is breaking down the Sin City Superstar and now looking for an Irish whip- NO! Cody reverses it! Ruler rebounds off the ropes, Cody going for the up and over-

Deadprez: BUT RULER ABLE TO FLIP OVER HIS BACK! Landing on his feet! Cody quickly goes for a right hook but Ruler once again reverses it! Throwing out strikes of his own! Cody trying to box with him but Ruler is showing quick movements! Moving his body and head, Cody missing the hooks and then getting clipped with a strike to the face! Finding it hard to find what Ruler is going to do! Now driving Cody back into the ropes with repeated forearm strikes, it’s been hard for Cody to find any footing in this match! Ruler going to the ropes, bouncing off and-

Gavin Kirkland: INTO THE ARMS OF CODY! PLANTING DOWN RULER WITH A BELLY TO BELLY SUPLEX! Maverick quickly going for another pin attempt…

Referee: ONE!

Referee: …

Gavin Kirkland: Once again! Ruler kicking out at one! Just isn’t going to be enough to put this man down, he has a lot more fight in him and that is starting to become more apparent to Cody. But he shouldn’t take his eyes off Ruler, managing to slip out of the ring in order to catch his breath and get some room to recover a little. Not good in a match this highly contested.

Eve: Cody is on it, quickly approaching Ruler- BUT GETS NAILED WITH A KICK TO THE MIDSECTION! Ruler now back in control of the match, grabbing Cody and looks to shame his skull into the steel steps! NO! Maverick manages to stop the impact and throws a back elbow into the head of Ruler! Making him stumble back and away from Maverick! However, Cody is keeping the pressure applied as much as he can. Grabbing Ruler and whipping him into the STEEL STEPS- BUT RULER HOPPING OVER THEM! Avoiding what could have been a game changer for Maverick and now sliding back into the ring! Taunting Cody Maverick to get inside.

Gavin Kirkland: Maverick is completely stunted, he is trying to figure out what exactly he needs to do to stop Ruler and keep hold of the offensive and flow of the match. Cody charges back into the ring, looking for a more aggressive approach- but runs right into another kick to the midsection and a stiff right hand to the jaw!

Eve: Ruler firing off with strong and stiff strikes, shutting down Maverick almost immediately! Sending Cody down to the mat, Maverick trying to quickly recover- BUT GETS A KICK STRAIGHT TO THE FACE! Sending back down to the mat. Ruler takes his time, showing not just the audience but Cody that he has control over him. Lifting him back to his feet slowly- AND SENDING HIM BACK DOWN WITH A FOREARM TO THE FACE! That one looked like it knocked him out! It might have but it doesn’t seem like enough for Ruler! Bouncing off the ropes, jumping up and SLAMMING his knee across the face of Cody! Now going for a quick pin attempt!

Referee: ONE!

Referee: …

Referee: TWO!!

Referee: …

Deadprez: Cody managed to get that shoulder up but you can tell it was just barely! Maverick has been getting dominated this whole match and the damage he is taking is starting to show! He desperately needs to get back into this match if he wants any shot of winning it. Ruler though, is very confident. Not a worry on his face as he grabs Maverick, lifting him back up and SLAMMING HIS FACE ON THE TOP TURNBUCKLE!

Gavin Kirkland: Cody completely at the mercy of Ruler, still on his feet but clearly not in as much fighter shape as we would expect from him. Ruler walks over to Cody and grabs him, putting him in a headlock draping the arm on his shoulder, he grabs his shorts, lifts him, and DROPS HIM DOWN WITH A SNAP VERTICAL SUPLEX! Ruler showed Cody that he may still have some things to learn, especially if he wants to beat him. He is absolutely dominating this match and Maverick is still unable to find an answer. Ruler just one move after another…

Eve: Ruler lifting Cody backup- BUT CODY ABLE TO POP OUT! Throwing out a right hand but he seems to be losing stem- NO MAVERICK WITH A KICK TO THE MIDSECTION! Ruler is stunned, giving Cody some room to get some offense in what feels like forever! Throwing right hooks to face! Grabbing Ruler and SLAMMING HIS FACE INTO THE CORNER! Doing everything he can to fight back! Making up for all the time he was being forced into defense! Whipping Ruler from the corner to another! Ruler’s back slamming against the turnbuckles, Cody rushing towards Ruler- BUT RULER QUICKLY GETS OUT THE WAY! Slamming himself shoulder first into the top turnbuckle!

Gavin Kirkland: Cody had a spark of energy that seemed to be immediately extinguished by Ruler! Maverick grabbing that hurt shoulder, trying to get back up- BUT RULER KICKS IT! Going straight for that hurt arm! Sending him to the mat in even more pain!

Eve: Ruler again not letting Cody get a single breath, lifting him up and leaning him against the ropes. Grabbing at the arm, he goes for an Irish whip- WAIT! Maverick reverses it! Ruler rebounding off the ropes and into an- BACKBODY! Maverick shooting Ruler high in the air and sending him CRASHING DOWN TO THE MAT! Cody fell to the ground but he managed to do a tremendous amount of damage to Ruler! Cody struggles to get back to his feet but so is Ruler, both of them are now on even ground!

Deadprez: Ruler and Cody both get up! Ruler swinging at Cody but Maverick ducks it! Hitting a clothesline to knock him down! Ruler stands up but into another one! Maverick bouncing off the ropes- INTO A PERFECT DROPKICK BY RULER! Completely stopping Cody’s momentum before it could get too out of control! That was so quick, standing up and immediately dropping him where he stood! Can the Ruler be stopped? Does Cody really have what it takes to keep this man down? By the looks of it, the answer might unfortunately be no! At every stop, it has been Ruler in firm control of this match.

Gavin Kirkland: You can’t discredit Cody and his resilience, everytime Ruler slips up, it seems like Maverick pops out with 10x the strength and gives him a bit of a fight. Ruler though, is so quick that he is able to stomp it out before it becomes a major problem. Ruler knows what Cody is capable of and he isn’t going to allow that potential to get released. Ruler, picking Cody back to his feet- BUT CODY ONCE AGAIN FEELING THAT SURGE! TAKING RULER DOWN WITH A CLOTHESLINE! Ruler back up, running into ANOTHER CLOTHESLINE! Standing right back up, charging at him—

Eve: CODY CATCHING HIM WITH A “DEEP END” SPINBUSTER! THIS COULD BE IT, THE PIN ATTEMPT—

Referee: ONE!

Referee: …

Referee: TWO!!

Referee: …

Eve: RULER KICKS OUT! Ruler just barely able to get that shoulder up! Maverick looked frustrated but he should be glad he got such a big move off! If it wasn’t for that spinebuster, he would’ve still been on the ground! Maverick needs to get out of his own head and continue to fight back! That is the only way he is going to be able to have a fighting chance. Giving Ruler any spacing is a recipe for disaster.

Gavin Kirkland: Cody is back on the attack with a grounded headlock. Looks like he’s doing what she can to wear down Ruler! Ruler is well known for his stamina, so the more Maverick can take that out of him, the better his chances of winning are! Cody is not just strong, but he can be a highly intelligent competitor. At the start of this match Ruler started to pull away with this match, but Cody managed to reel things in, all thanks to Maverick’s ability to dish things out as much as he can take it. He seems to be adjusting well to the Ruler’s game!

Eve: Cody could very well weather the storm that is Ruler! The challenger sits up, but Cody turns his hold into a chin lock, not offering any sort of reprieve to him. He’s doing a good job keeping control of the match right now. She’s adapting to Ruler’s style. But it seems like Ruler is trying to get a handle on this match, in his own way! He pulls forward before driving himself back into Cody! AGAIN! AND AGAIN! SIGNS OF FIGHT FROM THE CHALLENGER! All of that is driving the air out of Cody. His grip seems to be weakening…and yes, it is, as Ruler slips his hands in between that small gap, and now, he spins around, enabling a test of strength! HE FORCED MAVERICK TO BEND BACKWARDS!

Deadprez: Oh! Cody looks surprised, but he uses his core strength so he is able to push back! It’s a struggle, but he’s able to push back against the Ruler…slowly…but surely… HE’S BACK UPRIGHT! Cody reverses it! He turns it back on Ruler! Now we’re back at a standstill as these two aren’t willing to lose this test of strength! A lot of struggle here… but Ruler goes low with a kick to the gut! Cody drops an arm, instinctively holding his midsection! That paves the way for Ruler to run to the ropes, leading Cody to chase after him- RIGHT INTO A WELL TIMED ARMDRAG! Taking Cody back out of the ring!

Gavin Kirkland: Cody slowly getting back to his feet, he had good control over this match but he wasn’t able to keep it! Cody got to find a way to keep Ruler ground and keep offense on his side- LOOK OUT! Ruler flying through the ropes for a SUICIDE DIVE! Taking out Maverick!

Eve: Absolutely awful crash landing from Cody Maverick! Ruler jumping through the ropes and sending Maverick over the announce table! If he wasn’t out of the match then, he is definitely out now! Ruler coming over to grab Maverick, throwing him back into the ring and calling for Maverick to get up! Cody staggering, dazed, trying to stand on his two feet, just barely getting upright- OH! RULER WITH THE RUNNING KNEE STRIKE! TURNING CODY INSIDE OUT WITH THE “RV1”! With all the damage Cody has taken, I wouldn’t be surprised if this is what ends him! Ruler with the cover on Maverick!

Referee: ONE!

Referee: …

Referee: TWO!!

Referee: …

Referee: THREEEEEE—

Gavin Kirkland: CODY JUST BARELY ABLE TO GET THAT SHOULDER UP! Maverick is pushing back hard against this Ruler, not letting up, not going to stop until he wins this match or Ruler puts him down for good! Ruler is still calm, knowing that was far from his most devastating move. Ruler grabs his head, slowly lifting him back to his feet. Pulling him to the center of the ring, Ruler looking for the “Will of Nicholas”— WAIT! CODY STRUGGLING, TRYING TO FIGHT OUT OF HIS GRIP! RULER UNABLE TO CONTROL HIM—

Eve: A BRIDGING NORTHERN LIGHTS SUPLEX! Maverick managed to get Ruler down, into a pinfall!

Referee: ONE!

Referee: …

Referee: TWO!!

Referee: …

Referee: THREEEEEE—

Eve: RULER KICKING OUT! Cody Maverick pulling out moves out of his magic bag, unpredictable offense is the way to stomp Ruler! He had absolutely no idea that he could do that and now the ball is back in the court of Maverick! He might be thinking about doing something big, get Ruler on the same level that he is at! Ruler slowly getting up, staggered, dazed, not sure where he is— WALKING RIGHT INTO A “LIGHTS OUT”—

Deadprez: RULER GRABS MAVERICK OUT OF THE AIR! Slamming him down and locking in the “Monarchy Escape” Crossface! CODY IS IN A LOT OF TROUBLE! MAVERICK IS TRYING TO FIGHT HIS WAY OUT OF THIS SUBMISSION! A horrible position as well, right in the center of the ring, can’t even think about a rope break! The hold is so tight, he might not even be able to break the hold! Trying to pry away at his finger! This is the worst case scenario for Maverick! He may not have any other choice but to tap out! There is no other way!

Gavin Kirkland: Cody Maverick would rather die then allow this hard fought match to end in a tap out! He has made it very clear how much this match means and the lengths he is willing to go to come out as the victor! That thought hasn’t left his mind, even if he is trapped in this deadly submission hold! It helps that the crowd seems to be 100% behind Maverick! Pushing him to fight the hold, pleading for him not to tap out! Come on Maverick, don’t give in and don’t give up! Maverick is fading despite all the encouragement!

Eve: You’re right, maybe it was hopeful thinking- NO! Maverick got that needed burst of energy, finally able to fight out of his grip! Getting some much needed relief! Ruler attempting to get the hold back on- BUT MAVERICK SLAMS HIS HEAD BACK INTO RULER’S NOSE! Maverick finally makes it out and quickly crawls to the ropes! Ruler charges towards Cody- MAVERICK LIFTING RULER UP AND OVER HIS SHOULDER! Ruler lands on the apron, Cody turning around into a kick- MAVERICK BLOCKS IT! Cody grabs Ruler by the head, stepping up on the second rope! Pulling him back into a ring with a BIG VERTICAL SUPLEX! Cody going for another pin attempt!

Referee: ONE!

Referee: …

Referee: TWO!!

Referee: …

Referee: THREEE—

Gavin Kirkland: RULER GETS THE SHOULDER UP! Cody pulls him back to his feet, but Ruler EXPLODES with a Jumping Enziguri- HOWEVER, IT’S UNDERNEATH BY CODY! Ruler raises to his feet- BUT GETS SPUN AROUND FOR A SIN CITY STUNNER! RULER REVERSES AGAIN, SHOVING CODY STERNUM FIRST INTO THE CORNER! Cody rushes in- but Cody connects with a back kick to the abdominal region! Again, Ruler is doubled over, and Cody attempts to spring off the middle rope- BACKSTABBER! Ruler caught him with a backstabber before he could SPRING off the middle rope! Cody is in pain, and Ruler crawls into the cover, hooking the leg!

Referee: ONE!

Referee: …

Referee: TWO!!

Referee: …

Referee: THREEE—

Eve: CODY GETS THE SHOULDER UP! But is it possible that he exerted all his energy with that kickout? Cody is barely moving following that kickout, and is practically huffing wind. Ruler feeling confident, having Cody right where he wants him, and reaches down- BUT GETS CAUGHT WITH A SMALL PACKAGE! CODY WAS PLAYING POSSUM!

Referee: ONE!

Referee: …

Referee: TWO!!

Referee: …

Referee: THREEE—

Deadprez: KICKOUT! Both men are quickly back to their feet- SUPERKICK ATTEMPT BY RULER! BUT CODY CATCHES THE BOOT! RULER GETS SPUN AROUND, AND SHOVED TOWARD THE ROPES! Ruler rebounds off into “A DEEP END” SPINEBUSTER! TWO SPINEBUSTERS BY MAVERICK, WHO STARTS STALKING RULER FROM THE CORNER, WAITING FOR HIM TO GET UP! Ruler slowly rises back to his feet, and Cody charges in for that Superman Punch— “LIGHTS OUT”! NO! RULER TRAPS THE ARM ONCE AGAIN, AND HITS CODY IN THE JAW WITH A SUPERKICK! CODY GETTING SPINNED AROUND, AND RULER PLANTS HIM WITH “WILL OF NICHOLAS”! THAT DEVASTATING DDT, AND RULER IMMEDIATELY HOOKS THE LEG FOR A COVER!

Referee: ONE!

Referee: …

Referee: TWO!!

Referee: …

Referee: THREEE!!—

Gavin Kirkland: Shoulder up! Are we sure that wasn’t a THREE?! Even Ruler is asking the referee that question before rising up to his knees. Cody does the same, and gets BLASTED with a forearm! CODY RESPONDS WITH A RIGHT HAND! FOREARM BY RULER! THESE TWO ARE BATTLING BACK AND FORTH AS BOTH MEN RISE TO THEIR FEET! CODY STARTS TO GET THE BETTER OF RULER WITH A FLURRY OF RIGHTS! RULER GETS BACKED AGAINST THE ROPES FOR AN IRISH WHIP! CODY DUCKS DOWN, PERHAPS SIGNALING EARLY FOR A BACK BODY DROP! BUT RULER COUNTERS WITH A PENALTY KICK TO THE CHEST, JOLTING HIM UPRIGHT!

Eve: Ruler staggers back against the ropes, but Cody marches towards him after recovering- KNEE STRIKE! CODY WALKED RIGHT INTO A KNEE STRIKE, AND RULER DROPS INTO A COVER, HOOKING THE LEG!

Referee: ONE!

Referee: …

Referee: TWO!!

Referee: …

Referee: THREEE!!—

Eve: AGAIN, CODY GETS THE SHOULDER UP! MAVERICK IS STIRRING, AND RISES TO ALL FOURS! RULER SEES THIS, AND GRABS CODY LIFTING HIM UP! RULER TRIES FOR “FAKE IT FLOWER” ON CODY! BUT THE EMERALD FLOWSION GETS COUNTERED WITH A GERMAN SUPLEX! RULER ROLLS BACK TO HIS FEET, CLUTCHING AT HIS NECK IN PAIN- BUT GETS FLOORED WITH A SUPERMAN PUNCH! RULER JUST CRUMPLED TO THE CANVAS! CODY SHOOTS THE HALF FOR A COVER!

Referee: ONE!

Referee: …

Referee: TWO!!

Referee: …

Referee: THREEE!!—

Gavin Kirkland: DID HE GET HIM?! NO! RULER MANAGED TO KICK OUT BEFORE THE COUNT OF THREE! Ruler rolls out to the apron, and Cody reaches over the top rope, grabbing a handful of hair, pulling Ruler back to his feet- HOTSHOT! OOH! RULER JUST DROPPED CODY THROAT FIRST ACROSS THE TOP ROPE, AND CODY DROPS TO HIS KNEES IN THE CENTER, GASPING FOR AIR!

Eve: RULER SLIDES IN THE RING BOUNCING OFF THE ROPES- RIGHT INTO A “CATCH A RAINBOW”! A METEORA TO THE CHEST OF CODY’S HEAD! COVER IS MADE!

Referee: ONE!

Referee: …

Referee: TWO!!

Referee: …

Referee: THREEE!!!

Referee: …

Deadprez: THAT’S IT CODY HAS LOST- NO! MAVERICK MANAGED TO GET HIS SHOULDER UP! From the sound of it, it looked like Maverick might have got his shoulder up late but the referee is saying that it was clean! Ruler is disputing it but the official is staying true to his call! All that is going to do is motivate him to end this match even faster!

Gavin Kirkland: He is calling for Maverick to get back up, lifting him up and on his shoulder! GOING FOR THE “FAKE IT FLOWER” EMERALD FLOWSION! CODY STEADY ON HIS SHOULDERS! LOOKING TO PLANT MAVERICK TO THE MAT! HE HITS IT! CODY MAVERICK GOING DOWN! IS THIS FINALLY IT! WILL THIS FINALLY END THE MATCH? RULER GOING FOR THE COVER, HOOKING BOTH LEGS!

Referee: ONE!

Referee: …

Referee: TWO!!

Referee: …

Referee: THREEE!!!

Referee: …

Referee: …

Referee: …

Gavin Kirkland: NO WAY! NO WAY! MAVERICK MANAGING TO GET HIS SHOULDER UP AGAIN!

Eve: Cody is on a mission to prove what kind of star he is! Ruler doesn’t know whether to be shocked, angry, or impressed but either way he can’t deny — Maverick has not just reached his limit but has been going beyond! If Ruler wants to take down Maverick, he is going to have to put him down for good! Which it seems like he is flowing through his mind right now, flipping him on his stomach…HE MIGHT BE LOOKING FOR THE “SUBJECTIVE MORALITY”- NO! CODY IS LIFTING RULER UP ON HIS BACK! CODY FINDING THE STRENGTH TO GET OFF THE GROUND WITH RULER ON TOP OF HIM!

Deadprez: RULER NOW WRAPPING HIS LEGS AROUND HIS WAIST! WRAPPING HIS ARMS AROUND HIS NECK! GOING FOR A SLEEPER HOLD TO TRY TO GET CODY BACK DOWN TO THE MAT! CODY STAGGERING, NOT KNOWING WHERE TO GO! Maverick slowly dropping down to one knee, Ruler able to curb out the momentum he was getting! Ruler making sure he has a tight hold of the neck, as long as he has control there is nothing Maverick can do too- WAIT A SECOND! MAVERICK QUICKLY GETTING UP AND SLAMMING RULER’S BACK AGAINST THE CORNER!

Gavin Kirkland: Cody is finally free! Maverick quickly charged in with a shoulder tackle, ramming his shoulder into Ruler’s midsection! Maverick grabs Ruler and tries to quickly place him on the top rope! Leading his head out, he is looking for the “MONEYMAKER” DDT- WHICH HE GETS! DROPPING RULER STRAIGHT IN THE HEAD! MAVERICK HAS A BIG OPPORTUNITY TO FINISH THIS MATCH! MAVERICK CRAWLS INTO THE COVER! LOOKING TO FINALLY END THIS!

Referee: ONE!

Referee: …

Referee: TWO!!

Referee: …

Referee: THREEE!!!

Referee: …

Referee: …

Referee: …

Gavin Kirkland: ONCE AGAIN! RULER MANAGING TO GET OUT PIN! BUT THAT EXERTED A LOT OF ENERGY!

Eve: That means that Cody is in a very good spot, he could manage to get the victory if he can hit one more of his big moves! Maverick slowly gets back to his feet, watching Ruler try to find the ropes to assist himself back up! Maverick not being patient, grabbing Ruler but the hair looking for his “SIN CITY STUNNER”- NO! RULER CATCHING THE LEG! RULER DROPPING HIM DOWN TO HIS BACK! Ruler walks over to the legs of Cody Maverick and is starting to put them into a knot. It seems like he is looking to tap him out with that Inverted Cloverleaf! Maverick is locked in tight, he has nowhere to go! Is he going to tap out tonight or will he stay in this right now?

Deadprez: Cody Maverick is using his arms to drag himself closer to the ropes but the effort he makes is halted by Ruler pulling him back to the exact same spot, no matter where he tries to go. It’s agonizing for Cody to be in the center of the ring this late into the match! Any longer and we could be seeing a tap out! You can even see Maverick thinking about it!

Gavin Kirkland: Maverick is starting to wrestle his way out the hard way as he starts to forcefully turn to his side, looking to get a better vantage point to start making move in. Cody uses one arm to balance before he starts to tug on one of Ruler’s legs to bring him out of balance and it is working it seems like! Ruler is slipping out of the hold and it may be time for Cody to pick up some steam and come back! Ruler is out of the hold but he wastes absolutely no time and slaps the back of Maverick’s head as he starts to get up to stun him.

Eve: Cody is still trying to get to his feet however but Ruler is looking at those ropes and starts to speed up towards them. Ruler is looking to hit Maverick right here as he zooms towards him AND LOOKS TO TAKE HIM DOWN WITH A MASSIVE “REVOLUTIONIZER” TO END THE MATCH! SPINNING HEEL KICK! BUT NO, CODY MANAGES TO CATCH THE LEG AND LIFTS BRAE UP IN THE AIR, TURNING HIM AROUND FOR A THIRD MASSIVE SPINEBUSTER! THE “DEEP END” SIGNATURE MOVE OUT OF NOWHERE!

Gavin Kirkland: BOTH MEN ARE DOWN! BOTH MEN ARE DOWN! THIS MATCH HAS TAKEN SO MUCH OUT OF THEM! Ruler has thrown almost everything at Cody Maverick and The Sin City Superstar has taken all of it and then returned the favor! These two have pushed each other to the edge and I don’t know how long they are going to continue on! Can their bodies take any more damage? They might crumble like glass! Both of them are now getting back to their feet, slowly but with a look of fiery fight in their eyes! Cody yelling at Ruler to swing! Ruler doing the same!

Eve: CODY THROWS A RIGHT HAND! RULER THROWS A LEFT HAND! CODY THROWS ONE! RULER THROWS ONE RIGHT BACK! RULER! CODY! RULER! CODY! CODY COMING BACK SENDING HIM STAGGERING INTO THE ROPES! CODY WHIPPING RULER INTO THE ROPES- HE REBOUNDS GOING FOR ANOTHER “RV1” — CODY SIDE STEPS AND SENDING RULER DOWN! QUICKLY GETTING BACK UP, RULER SWINGS AT CODY- CODY GRABBING HIM INTO A HALF NELSON GOING FOR THE “HIGH ROLLER”!- NO! RULER ESCAPES IT!

Deadprez: RULER ABLE TO NEARLY GET OUT OF WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN THE END OF THIS MATCH- “REVOLUTIONIZER”! DID HE JUST GET THE SPINNING HEEL KICK?!

Gavin Kirkland: NO! CODY WAS ABLE TO DUCK UNDER IT! RULER SPINNING AROUND INTO A KICK TO THE GUT! “SIN CITY STUNNER”! TAKING RULER DOWN! CODY CRAWLING TO THE COVER! DRAPING AN ARM ON THE CHEST OF RULER…

Referee: ONE!

Referee: …

Referee: TWO!!

Referee: …

Referee: THREEE!!!

Referee: …

Referee: …

Referee: …

(DING! DING! DING!)

Gina Romano: HERE IS YOUR WINNER…“THE SIN CITY SUPERSTAR” CODY MAVERICK!

(Cody slowly rolls off Ruler as he lies next to him in a hard fought battle. The referee waits until he gets to his feet and has his arm raised.)

Gavin Kirkland: An Incredible match between two of the core here on Showdown! Ruler is establishing himself as a force again in the singles ranks but Cody Maverick is a rising star that is looking to ascend further and further, this was a great start! Yeah!

Eve: CODY DID IT! In a highly contested match! Cody was able to fight his way to the top! If people weren’t watching Maverick before then they sure as hell are watching him now! Congratulations to Maverick!

Deadprez: Also props to Ruler, this whole match he seemed to have had Maverick’s number but thanks to Cody’s resilience and strength, he was able to not just power through to the end and but dish out what was thrown at him! Something you can’t truly prepare for!

(Cody climbs to the top rope, celebrating with his arm holding what could be a possible hurt rib. However; that didn’t matter much to him. As much as it mattered that he is able to call himself the winner of this match.)

Deadprez: Both of these men should be proud with their performance tonight and I see big things for both of them in the future of Showdown the rest of the season!

(The final shot is Cody holding his ribs while raising his arms in pain while Ruler lays against the ropes seething at the loss.)

(Midsummer Massacre came back from ringside and slowly, it moved towards backstage as currently, the cameras were in catering at the moment, everyone was grabbing their food and then going to sit down on their tables. Over on the corner where they did not like to be bothered, the Jaded Hearts were sitting down by themselves, holding the Unified Tag Team Championships on their shoulders as Sienna was currently rushing through her hands small letters with bullet points while Kassidy was poking at the food that she refused to eat, kind of uncooked BBQ with some flimsy french fries.)

Kassidy Heart: Ew.

Sienna Jade: Let’s seeeee, maybe I could do a little Chucky joke, maybe throw one about a modern movie, oooh, that one about the creepy robot girl that came out recently, megan? M3GAN? I can definitely make a connection there-

Kassidy Heart: Sienna, this food is dog shit.

Sienna Jade: Oh, I know!

Kassidy Heart: I can’t believe that they ended up putting up such a dumbass BBQ bar over here, just because we are in St. Louis? If its a horror movie themed Marquee Event now, and the food being given is NOT HORROR THEMED then what the fuck are we even doing by this point?!

(Kassidy grabs the plate and then immediately chucks the food as it lands on an unsuspecting intern as by this point, the cameramen finally arrived towards their table as Sienna turned over.)

Sienna Jade: OH, WE ARE LIVE AGAIN?! Hold on!

(Sienna grabs her own plate, chucks it behind her and then once again hits the same intern before she turns to the camera with a smile.)

Sienna Jade: Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the rundown catering that we were forced to go into just so we could go get some decent food and then we were served trash on a platter, I hope that (not really) all of you have been able to enjoy better food, anyway, what are the matches that are still left to arrive, bestie babe?

Kassidy Heart: I have not been paying attention to anything at all.

Sienna Jade: Okay, let me lead it forward here, just like when Chucky was burned up at the end of the movie, this match is about to be looking pretty fire 😉 when we see one of the most annoying human beings in the whole world in Harper Lee go up against the Universal Women’s Champion, Milli Banks! Obviously, very bias here for Milli Vanilli, she did what she set out to do when winning the Universal Women’s Championship, loveeeed seeing the expression on Minerva’s face seeing her perfect record at Pain For Pride be completely broken like that, and I will enjoy it even more when I see the bitch of Harper be broken into tiny little pieces!

Kassidy Heart: Yaaaawn, Milli Banks is simply a placeholder before I ever decide to go for the Universal Women’s Championship again, but I am going to focus on continuing to break my records with my best friend in the whole world and Milli can continue to play pretend before I arrive.

Sienna Jade: We also have one of the most interesting matches coming up. I am confused about what these two losers want to get out of this match, glory or something I don’t know but they are fighting indeed for some reason! Jon Kelton and Bronson Daniels will fight in an Iron Man match, I don’t really have a bias for any of them. Actually, I don’t particularly like any of them, so I am hoping for a draw tonight and nobody wins!

Kassidy Heart: I definitely want Bronson to lose, not only is is it even more embarrassing seeing him try so hard to beat Daddy Gawd and then failing when he was so close, it is going to be the final nail of the coffin seeing him lose to Kelton of all people :mjlol2:

Sienna Jade: And finally the world championship, don’t let our words jump out at you like a facehugger, it is the main event, it is probably going to be a great match, Charlie is a bastard, TLA is a weird dude, but they are somehow both good wrestlers, obviously don’t like Charlie, he can ✨unalive✨ himself, so I am rooting for TLA after he helped me yesterday watching those movies.

Kassidy Heart: I don’t like my stupid fucking niece, and somehow I like less the bitchy boyfriend of my stupid fucking niece, so I do agree on wanting TLA to win, because I have some things to settle from many years ago when he ended my world breaking championship reign with the Answers World Championship. Might have to go and get that championship back and actually break the last record that I need, the “Ace’s” record.

Sienna Jade: Anyway, the rest of the show will be fun, probably, but I am very confused about how an athlete can wrestle being served this shit on a plate.

Kassidy Heart: I know, right? You have to be one of the most idiotic people in the world to enjoy this kind of food.

(Kassidy and Sienna look around for a moment before they end up seeing some dude just chopping down all of that BBQ food, he really had so many plates on his table and he was eating them all.)

Sienna Jade: Like that idiot over there?

Kassidy Heart: Exactly him-

(Kassidy stops talking for a moment, squinting her eyes to see the person eating all of that food and her expression suddenly changes into one of pure rage.)

Kassidy Heart: No fucking way…

Sienna Jade: Hm? What is it?

(Kassidy quickly gets up out of her table and Sienna follows after her in a confused manner. The two eventually reach the person’s table, the camera turning around to reveal…)

(…)

(…)

Lucas Johnson: Hi guys! 👋

(IT WAS LUCAS “JUSTIN” FUCKING JOHNSON! HE HAS NOT BEEN SEEN IN AGES! HOW IS HE HERE?)

(Lucas continues chomping down on the BBQ, eating all of the ribs up like he was a machine, not exactly a wrestling one but still one, and Kassidy immediately felt her expression turn into one of pure annoyance seeing Lucas Johnson of all people yet again)

Kassidy Heart: Why is the scum of the Earth in our show?

Sienna Jade: Uhhhh… Kassi-poo, who is this guy?

Lucas Johnson: Hey Sienna! You do remember me, right?

Sienna Jade: …???

Lucas Johnson: We have been co-workers for years! Not exactly on the same brand but still that! I am Lucas Johnson! Well, Justin Johnson! Lucas “Justin” Johnson! You can call me LJ Johnson if you like it too!

Sienna Jade: …Kass, has a Mental Asylum patient escaped here to steal our food?

Kassidy Heart: No, Sienna, he just has been the local jobber of the promotion for years and right now I am very confused on WHY you are here at this moment?

Lucas Johnson: Why are you confused about it? I work here!

Kassidy Heart: Uh- no, the fuck you don’t?! Your ass was fired after you got your neck broken by that neanderthal looking man!

Lucas Johnson: Hey, he does not like to be called that, quick note! Also I am sure he did not mean it, it was probably a freak accident.

Lucas Johnson: But yeah, it was a super crazy story, I was going to get moved to the hospital so they could be able to treat my neck but uh, funny thing! I did not get the insurance of the company to pay for the operation because I changed my name from Lucas to Justin and they thought I was a different dude!

Lucas Johnson: So I had to go and treat it with some incredibly shady dude in Cancún, had to go on a boat, ended up being thrown into a super crazy storm, ended up in Guam having to fight Laser Dolphins and everything, wild, super wild…

Sienna Jade: I don’t even think Guam and Cancún are anywhere close together.

Kassidy Heart: Oh wow, what a super cute and inspiring story- I DON’T GIVE A FUCK! You still do not work here!

Lucas Johnson: No, I actually do! In fact, I practically work every job here! I tried to get my job as a wrestler back after my contract expired during that time I was injured, so I asked the guy in charge of the jobs if I could get a job, and he just told me “you can do whatever you do with your life…”

Lucas Johnson: So I did everything! I work as a Valet Parker, I work as one of the Stage Hands, I work as an Assistant, I work as a Janitor, I even work in the kitchen and everything making those delicious ribs!

Kassidy Heart: Great, so there IS someone to blame!

Lucas Johnson: And I am doing it all so that way I can work hard to get my job as a wrestler back!

(Kassidy and Sienna stand there completely dumbfounded and confused hearing that story as Kassidy quickly puts a hand on her purse and takes out a phone.)

Kassidy Heart: (on phone) Yes, security? There is a weirdo here in catering, please take him out right now.

Lucas Johnson: (on phone) Oh yeah sure, I can take care of it! What do they look like?

Kassidy Heart: …

(Kassidy immediately snaps her head to the side to look towards Lucas on the phone as well, as he waves towards her again.)

Lucas Johnson: I also work as a part time security guard here! And also, let me tell you, as a guy who has owned a lot of phones, you should not use that kind of phone, it can break easily!

Kassidy Heart: …well, guess I am killing you now.

(Kassidy quickly grabs one of the chairs and she is about to snap it right over Lucas’ head-)

Sienna Jade: WOW! Calm down on that, Kass! I know that inside of the ring we are supposed to be machines of destruction but I believe as hosts, we need to have some control, even if it is to the less fortunate!

Kassidy Heart: …really?

Sienna Jade: Yes, really! Here, let me take it away! You, Larry Johnson!

Lucas Johnson: Lucas.

Sienna Jade: Logan?

Lucas Johnson: Justin.

Sienna Jade: Jeremiah????

Lucas Johnson: LJ.

Sienna Jade: WHATEVER YOUR NAME IS! I, as the co-host of Midsummer Massacre, will allow you to be here in the event only if you promise to not make a mess of any kind!

Lucas Johnson: Oh wow, thank you so much Sienna! Here, as a gift of gratitude, this is on the house!

(Lucas quickly grabs one of his plates and gives it to Sienna, the rib being very overcooked this time.)

Sienna Jade: Uhhh… no, thank you-

(Suddenly, one of the lights in the ceiling completely snaps off to the side, swinging down and hitting the plate out of Lucas’ hand… AND MAKING THE FOOD LAND ON SIENNA’S DRESS!)

Lucas Johnson: Oh dang! I am sorry, I was also given the job of Electrician Assistant and it seems I did not screw that light well, oops!

Sienna Jade: https://media1.tenor.com/m/yljUqzXwOPYAAAAC/cringe-danny.gif

(SIENNA SUDDENLY SLAMS HER ARM RIGHT ON THE TABLE AND COMPLETELY SNAPS THE TABLE IN HALF!)

(Kassidy and Sienna turn to glare genuine death glares towards Lucas as he sits there, blinking slowly.)

Lucas Johnson: …soooo, does that mean you want the food for take-out?

( **A few minutes later!** )

Lucas Johnson: :dead:

(Both Kassidy and Sienna quickly cleaned their hands after beating the shit out of Lucas for minutes and throwing him out of the building, they quickly go inside and close the door behind them, Lucas being left out on the cold and on the ground as Midsummer Massacre fades away from the scene.)

(The graphic for the next match appears.)

Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen… The following Singles Match is scheduled for ONE FALL!!!

Crowd: ONE FALL!!!!

(The crowd is seen waiting in anticipation as ‘Faneto’ by Chief Keef is heard throughout the arena as the fans start to boo loudly. The reaction gets even louder when SOSA Henderson is seen coming out sporting a bulletproof jacket with the words “BULLETPROOF” written in front of it, some black shades, some white gloves, and his iconic SOSA chain on his neck as he makes his way down the ramp and towards the ring.)

Gina Romano: Introducing first… From Philadelphia, Pennsylvania… Weighing in at 191 pounds… He is The 24/7 Contract Holder… “BULLETPROOF”… SOSAAAAAAAAAAAA HENDERSOOOOOOOOOON!!!

Deadprez: Awwww man, this right here is a man with not just the dedication to become world champion again, but he is seeing red here tonight after Donovan Duke cost him an opportunity to become the EAW Answers World Champion! Best believe we are about to see SOSA go all out to ensure that tonight he walks out with a dubya!

Gavin Kirkland: You couldn’t have said it any better Prezzy! SOSA Henderson is looking to get his “get back” as the kids say and Donovan Duke best hopes his grappling skills are enough to keep SOSA down or else it’s about to get brutal inside that ring.

(As SOSA Henderson finally makes it inside the ring and starts taking off his accessories and his bulletproof jacket, his theme song is slowly switched out by ‘I Rise’ by Cory Marks and the loud booing crowd quickly start to cheer very loudly at the sight of Donovan Duke coming out pumped up as ever and ready to go all out as he heads towards the ring slapping the hands of many of his fans.)

Gina Romano: His opponent… From Stillwater, Oklahoma… Weighing in at 212 pounds… He is Mr Cash In The Vault… “THE OKLAHOMA STORM” DONOVAAAAAAAAAN DUUUUUUUKE!!!

Eve: Don’t you guys count out Donovan Duke out of this match just yet! Donovan is out here to prove that he deserves to be a world champion this season and best believe if he needs to shut SOSA Henderson’s mouth to get one step closer to becoming a world champion he’s going to do it!

Gavin Kirkland: SOSA Henderson is about to put this “munchkin’” in his place here tonight and best believe afterwards WE will be partying the night to celebrate because you know… I AM part of the SOSA team no matter what the silly rumors would have you all think!

(Ding! Ding! Ding!)

Deadprez: The 24/7 contract holder against Mr. Cash In The Vault; two elitists looking to become world champion this season, but tonight it’s about both men trying to prove who deserved it the most as the bell has been rung and both men are staring at each other for s few seconds… Quickly, both men start to approach the middle of the ring as they go for a collar-and-elbow lock up!

Eve: A technical start, something we kind of expected with Donovan Duke being quite experienced in that field as he quickly puts SOSA in a headlock, but SOSA Henderson not giving in that easily as he starts to push Donovan to the ropes as he uses them to help him not only escape the headlock, but also irish-whip Donovan Duke to the other side of the ring! Donovan Duke now rebounds off the ropes where SOSA is ready as he goes for a Bicycle Knee right to the face of Donovan D-

Gavin Kirkland: Not so fast as Donovan Duke is able to grab onto the knee of SOSA, turns him around in quick fashion, and positions him for a German Suplex as he picks up SOSA Henderson and looks to plant him right down onto the mat! SOSA now goes up aaaaaaand… HE LANDS ON HIS TWO FEET AS HE SPINS DONOVAN DUKE AROUND AND HITS DONOVAN DUKE WITH A ROUNDHOUSE KICK THAT LEAVES HIM DAZED! SOSA Henderson now seeing this as an opportunity to continue to strike down Donovan Duke quickly runs to the other side of the ring using the ropes for momentum to SUCCESSFULLY hit Donovan with a Bicycle Knee that sends him down to the mat!

Deadprez: Now that was a NASTY knee right to the face of Donovan not wasting any time on Mr. Cash In The Vault as SOSA hits “The Oklahoma Storm” with a Jumping Foot Stomp right to his abdomen area! Talk about getting down and dirty as each move is more painful than the last. SOSA knows there’s no time to waste especially with the likes of Donovan Duke which is capable of using any opening to his own benefit, he grabs the grounded Donovan Duke, picks him up, and it looks like he’s looking to hit Donovan with a suplex of his own.

Eve: SOSA going for a Back Suplex, but Donovan Duke is able to escape as he’s able to escape SOSA’s grasp as he’s able to get behind SOSA Henderson! He grabs him from behind and picks him up for a German Suplex! Woah, SOSA will not stay down as he fights through the pain to get back to his feet as he starts yelling at Donovan Duke to hit him which Donovan Duke does by trying to go for a Stiff Lariat, but SOSA using his strong boxing experience to dodge out of the way quickly going for a Superkick to the back of Donovan Duke’s head, but Donovan is able to to turn around just in time to grab SOSA’s leg and wastes no time to pick him up!

Gavin Kirkland: Donovan Duke able to pick up SOSA as he drops him back down with a beautiful Powerbomb! Donovan Duke now on the offense notices he’s got quite an opening as he positions himself as he goes for a Standing Moonsault that lands flawlessly! He gets back to his feet in quick fashion as he moves to the lower half of SOSA Henderson and starts to hook him in for a Boston Crab! It may be too soon for a submission victory, but Donovan Duke isn’t looking for the win right now more so trying to damage SOSA’s back some more after that Powerbomb… Donovan Duke now almost having SOSA Henderson fully into the Boston Crab, the question is will he be able to hook it in, or will SOSA be able to-

Deadprez: That’s exactly what happens Gavin as SOSA ain’t letting this opportunity to not only prove he is the better elitist between the both of them, but a little revenge for essentially costing SOSA a big opportunity to possibly become world champion once again as SOSA is able to kick Donovan Duke right in the face sending him back towards the ropes, quickly with a kip-up to get up on his feet, and a lariat with an attempt to get Donovan Duke over that ropes! Donovan Duke had enough power still to prevent himself from being forcibly thrown to the outside, but SOSA still was able to leave that brotha dazed enough to quickly flip him around and hit a beautiful Back Suplex sending Donovan to the middle of the ring!

Eve: SOSA continuing to put the hurt on Donovan Duke, looking to weaken the torso some more by going for a Double Stomp that lands right on the stomach of Donovan, but SOSA isn’t done just yet as he quickly starts to head to the turnbuckle and climb to the top rope! Donovan Duke, still trying to recover from that brutal Double Foot Stomp, doesn’t notice that SOSA Henderson is currently on the top rope as SOSA goes for a 450 Splash onto Donovan Duke! What a beautiful spin mid-air as he lands it flawlessly and goes for the quick cover! Does SOSA Henderson have this match won this early on?!?

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Referee: TWOOOOOOO-

Gavin Kirkland: Kick out just before the two count as Donovan Duke looks to keep this match going, which it Seems SOSA is willing to continue as well, and just like that he starts to pick up Donovan Duke up to his feet looking to position him for a Vertical Suplex… SOSA picks Donovan up and it looks like he’s got him where he wants him as SOSA keeps Donovan up in the air for a Delayed Vertical Suplex! The crowd is about to chant how many seconds SOSA can keep Donovan Duke up in the air, but Donovan Duke able to hit SOSA in the dome with a knee that gives Donovan the opportunity to escape the Vertical Suplex position and without wasting any time pushes SOSA right towards the ropes as SOSA rebounds and is quickly put down with a Spinebuster from Donovan Duke!

Eve: Donovan Duke is in the zone right now with the fans cheering loudly for him as he looks down at SOSA Henderson before picking him up as quickly as he can, grabbing both his arms, and goes for a Double Armed Suplex that is executed perfectly… Yet he doesn’t let go just yet as Donovan Duke is able to roll himself back up with SOSA Henderson still in his grasp quickly repositioning himself for a German Suplex as once again SOSA goes down to the mat back first! What’s this?!? Donovan Duke once again picking himself back up right after a Suplex with SOSA still in his grasp as he once again repositions SOSA Henderson for a Vertical Suplex of his own as Donovan picks up SOSA and… He keeps him up trying to show SOSA how a PROPER DELAYED VERTICAL SUPLEX IS HIT AS THE FANS START TO COUNT THE SECONDS!!!

Crowd: ONE!

Crowd: TWO!

Crowd: THREE!

Crowd: FOUR!

Crowd: FIVE!

Crowd: SIX!

Crowd: SEVEN!

Crowd: EIGHT!

Crowd: NINE!

Crowd: TEN!

Crowd: ELEVEN!

Crowd: TWELVE!

Gavin Kirkland: Just like that Donovan Duke puts SOSA down on the mat! What a showcase of power from Donovan Duke here tonight, but it’s going to take more than just that to keep down a former world champion like SOSA Henderson here tonight. Donovan Duke is now working on SOSA’s right leg as he starts to unleash a fury of elbows onto it trying to weaken it as best as he can knowing that SOSA’s legs are his biggest asset inside this ring!

Deadprez: What a rarity from you Gavin to talk about folks legs in that context, but you’re right about it. Them legs can put a hurt on most the elitists in this company just as we seen him try to Superkick Donovan a couple minutes ago in this match and best believe there’s more kicks where that came from in SOSA’s repertoire, but SOSA ain’t letting that brotha cause more harm to his right leg as a nice kick to Donovan’s face gives SOSA the opening he needed to get back on his feet, struggling a bit of course, but that ain’t gone hold SOSA back especially in a match of this caliber!

Eve: You’re right about that Prez as SOSA is quick to hook in a Poisoned Frankensteiner that spikes Donovan Duke’s head right on the ring mat! That’s going to leave a mark especially if SOSA is able to successfully pull off what he’s looking to do here at the moment by grabbing both Donovan’s arms, and he starts to STOMP Donovan Duke’s face over and over like there’s no tomorrow! What else to be expected when someone costs you an opportunity as big as becoming world champion once again… Donovan’s face is quite red after the stomping he received which is clear that was SOSA Henderson’s intent here tonight as he turns him around and is looking to hook in his signature Crossface Submission Hold…

Gavin Kirkland: HE HAS IT HOOKED IN! Donovan Duke is now trying his hardest to escape from this Crossface Submission Hold, but SOSA is not letting go of Donnie just yet as he continues to make the hold tighter and tighter! The look of pain from Donovan Duke’s face says it all as he tries to crawl his way to the ropes, but SOSA tries his best to pull him back before he can reach the ropes for a rope break…

…

…

…

Deadprez: DONOVAN DUKE ABLE TO GRAB THE ROPES IN TIME FOR A ROPE BREAK! SOSA ain’t letting go just yet though as the referee starts the count of five!

Referee: ONE! TWO! THREE! FO-!

Eve: SOSA Henderson letting go of the Crossface submission hold before the four count, but not before getting away with a sneaky take to the face of Donovan Duke as the referee goes to scold SOSA Henderson, giving Donovan Duke enough time to pick himself up with help from the nearby ropes, and heads towards SOSA’s direction as he quickly turns him around and sets him up for a…

Gavin Kirkland: BELLY TO BELLY SUPLEX! Donovan Duke is back in the game and he’s not looking to let SOSA catch his breath as Donovan Duke goes towards the bottom half of SOSA, starts to deadlift him trying to pick him up from the mat, and he does before quickly planting SOSA Henderson back on the mat with a devastating Deadlift Powerbomb stumbling a bit afterwards towards the nearest turnbuckle as Donovan Duke sees an opportunity to fly high tonight!

Eve: Well he’s definitely going to show his daredevil side here tonight, not wasting any time climbing to the top rope looking to land a Diving Moonsault… FLAWLESSLY, Donovan Duke is able to land it, but quickly right after he stands up, and hits a standing variation of the Moonsault on SOSA! Going for the cover now, will this be enough to put down SOSA, or will this match continue on?!?

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOO-!!!

Deadprez: A kick out before the count of two as the “King of Philly” still has the strength and power to keep fighting! That only means these boys boutta go harder and harder until one of them is able to overpower the opposition here tonight. Donovan Duke looks to keep the pressure on SOSA as he hits a Knee Drop on SOSA’s left leg now before rolling back up and heading to the top rope once again! This time it’s looking like Donovan Duke’s preparing himself to land this move with no mistakes as it looks like it’s time to fly!

Gavin Kirkland: Donovan Duke now straightening himself before the di- SOSA HENDERSON PLAYING POSSUM LONG ENOUGH TO GET BACK UP QUICKLY AS HE CLIMBS THE TOP ROPE WITH DONOVAN DUKE AND IMMEDIATELY GRABS DONOVAN TO HIT A TOP ROPE BRAINBUSTER THAT CATCHES DONOVAN’S HEAD ON THE TURNBUCKLE CAUSING HIM TO FALL OUT OF THE RING ENTIRELY! SOSA Henderson catching himself at the last minute to stay on the apron, he starts to climb up the turnbuckle to the top rope, and quickly aims for Donovan Duke with a Jumping Foot Stomp from the top rope to the outside!!!

Eve: OUCH! That’s going to leave a mark as it fully connects! The referee’s discretion will be a big key whether these men can continue to go or if they will call things fully by the rules as SOSA starts to pick himself up with the help of the barricade while it seems the referee will start the count just as SOSA is mostly back on his feet.

Referee: ONE!

Referee: TWO!

Referee: THREE!

Deadprez: The outside of the ring is a very dangerous spot for both these men to be, but they both know the benefits of using everything they can to wear their opponent out there. SOSA is the first to use this to his advantage as he slowly picks up Donovan Duke and slams him face first onto the barricade! Awwwww man this is getting REAAAAAL GOOD as Donovan Duke bounces back from that face slam and SOSA Henderson ready to pick him up to slam Donnie back first onto the barricade with a Back Suplex!

Referee: FOUR!

Referee: FIVE!

Gavin Kirkland: We’re getting closer to the count of five, but SOSA quickly gets back inside the ring and gets back out in quick fashion, restarting the count! Very smart thinking from the veteran as he wants to continue punishing Donovan Duke outside which who can blame him? Donovan DID cost SOSA Henderson an opportunity to become EAW Answers World Champion on last Showdown. He’s more than motivated to continue hurting the man responsible for this as SOSA climbs on top of the barricade as he attempts to hit a Jumping DDT from it…

Referee: ONE!

Referee: TWO!

Eve: Donovan Duke more than prepared as he grabs on SOSA’s leg and pulls him down from the barricade as he falls back first to the floor! Quickly, Donovan Duke repositions himself after turning SOSA Henderson over as he goes for another deadlift, but this time it’s looking like Donovan is looking for a Deadlift German Suplex… RIGHT ONTO THE APRON! That’s the hardest part of the ring that SOSA’s back just hit! SOSA’s starting to try and crawl away from Donovan Duke, making his way towards the steel steps, but Donovan Duke not trying to give any room for SOSA to breathe prepared a Spear as SOSA is struggling to get up and turns around to get hit with a Sp-

…

…

…

Gavin Kirkland: SOSA HENDERSON MOVES OUT OF THE WAY! Donovan Duke goes headfirst into the steel steps as SOSA Henderson is seen with a devilish smirk on his face knowing that this is his opportunity to strike Donovan Duke down some more and one step closer to picking up the win here tonight at Midsummer Massacre. SOSA gets back up on his feet as he starts to bash Donovan Duke’s face onto the steel steps before throwing him to the side of the apron as the fans start to boo him loudly here tonight.

Referee: ONE!

Referee: TWO!

Referee: THREE!

Referee: FOUR!

Deadprez: They can boo SOSA all he wants, but let’s not pretend he don’t have the right to feel the way he does towards Donovan Duke alright? If someone did what Donovan did to you, wouldn’t you feel the need to punish that person that took a huge opportunity away from you, and even try to make sure their own attempts don’t work out? SOSA Henderson is in the absolute right tonight and that’s a hill I will die on as SOSA starts to pick Donovan Duke up and put him up on the outer side of the apron looking to use the hardest part of the ring to his advantage…

Referee: FIVE!

Referee: SIX!

Eve: SOSA gets up on the outer side of the apron as well, setting up a DDT onto it, but Donovan Duke is able to push him off as both men start trading blows back and forth on the outer apron! Donovan Duke with an elbow as SOSA Henderson gives him one back in return, both men striking each other with a strong strike that separates both men a couple of inches, but SOSA sees an opportunity to knock Donovan off as he goes for a Bicycle knee!

Referee: SEVEN!

Referee: EIGHT!

Gavin Kirkland: Donovan Duke able to catch the knee in time, quickly repositioning SOSA Henderson into a Overhead Belly-To-Belly Suplex that sends SOSA Henderson back into the ring! This gives Donovan Duke the opening he needs as he quickly starts to climb to the nearest top rope, and is looking to hit “Stack The Deck”… THE PHOENIX SPLASH CONNECT AND QUICKLY NOW DONOVAN DUKE GOES FOR THE COVER!!! DONOVAN DUKE MAY BE CLOSER TO THE WIN…

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Referee: THREE-!!!

Deadprez: KICK OUT RIGHT AT TWO FROM SOSA HENDERSON! Donovan Duke knows what he has to do next if he wants to end this match for good here tonight as he starts to slowly pick up SOSA from the ground and position him in a fireman’s carry position… Awww man it may be time to ring the bell afterwards as Donovan Duke is looking to hit his patented Fireman’s Carry Back-To-Belly Piledriver he calls the “Duke of Hazard” as he transitions SOSA from a fireman’s carry into th-

Eve: SOSA HENDERSON ABLE TO REVERSE AWAY FROM THE BACK-TO-BELLY PILEDRIVER BY USING THE MOMENTUM AGAINST DONOVAN TO CONNECT WITH A HURRICANRANA THAT SENDS DONOVAN DUKE RIGHT TO THE MIDDLE ROPES!!! SOSA sees an opening as he runs towards the other side of the ring, rebounds off them, and uses the momentum from being rebounded to connect Donovan Duke with a Tiger Feint Kick!

Deadprez: SOSA Henderson staying on the outside while Donovan Duke is able to roll back up slightly dazed as he tries to make his way quickly towards SOSA’s direction, but is quickly put down for good by SOSA as he connects with a NASTY Slingshot Flatliner near the ropes! “The Philly King” is now picking up Donovan Duke from the ground as he starts to drag him to the nearest corner… Slowly, SOSA starts to put him up on the turnbuckle as he’s looking to hit Donovan with another NASTY Top Rope Brainbuster as both men are now on the top rope and SOSA starts to pick up Donovan Duke…

Eve: Donovan Duke however was ready this time as he puts all his weight down with both men standing on the top of the turnbuckle as they started trading blows back and forth! SOSA! DONOVAN! SOSA! DONOVAN! SOSA! DONOVAN WITH A STIFF ELBOW THAT GIVES HIM THE OPENING HE NEEDS AS HE USES THIS OPPORTUNITY TO SET UP SOSA HENDERSON FOR A SUPERPLEX! DONOVAN NOW PICKING UP SOSA AND THE SUPERPLEX CONNECTS AS BOTH MEN ARE DOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE RING!!! Donovan Duke regains some consciousness now as he makes his way to SOSA Henderson and quickly puts his arm over SOSA as the referee starts the count!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Referee: THREEEEEE-!!!

Gavin Kirkland: Not just yet as SOSA stays in the match! Donovan Duke starts to roll towards the ropes and so does SOSA Henderson as both men start to get up assisted by the ropes as they get back up on their feet and both start to head to the middle where both men meet as they get in each other’s face…

SOSA Henderson: (off-mic) C’mon Munchkin’ show me what you really got!

Donovan Duke: (off-mic) How about you show me what YOU really have eh jackass?!?

Gavin Kirkland: THE TRADING OF BLOWS STARTS AGAIN AS BOTH MEN ARE THROWING STIFF ELBOWS BACK AND FORTH! DONOVAN DUKE! SOSA HENDERSON! DONOVAN DUKE! SOSA HENDERSON! DONOVAN DUKE! SOSA HENDERSON! DONOVAN DUKE WITH A STIFF ELBOW THAT SENDS SOSA BACK TO THE ROPES WHICH GIVES DONOVAN DUKE AN OPPORTUNITY TO HIT SOSA WITH ANOTHER LARIAT AS HE’S LOOKING TO SEND SOSA OVER THE TOP ROPE!

Deadprez: NOT SO FAST AS SOSA HENDERSON IS ABLE TO PULL THE ROPE DOWN SENDING DONOVAN DUKE CRASHING DOWN TO THE OUTSIDE!!! SOSA looks at Donovan Duke trying to pick himself back up with help from our announcers table as he starts to run towards the ropes, rebounds off them, and as Donovan Duke gets up and turns around he’s met with a FLAWLESS Over The Top Rope Moonsault Plancha right into Donovan Duke!

Referee: ONE!

Referee: TWO!

Eve: SOSA quickly gets back up on his feet, picks up Donovan Duke, and slams him down on the top of our announcers table with a Back Suplex! Both these men have been giving each other their worst, soon enough their bodies are going to force them to slow down, but it seems for now the action continues on as SOSA Henderson wastes no time by picking up Donovan Duke by his hair as he puts him on top of the outer side of apron before he gets up as well… SOSA now putting Donovan Duke up on his shoulders… Looks like he’s going to continue focusing on that back of Donovan Duke as he hits him with a Death Valley right on the hardest part of the ring!!!

Referee: THREE!

Referee: FOUR!

Referee: FIVE!

Gavin Kirkland: SOSA with that sinister smirk on his face knowing damn well what he’s doing here tonight as he yells at Donovan Duke who rolled off the ground to get up while Donovan Duke aching in pain heads our way using our beautiful table to pick himself back up while SOSA is looking to use the ropes to his advantage as he does so well by trying to go for a springboard Hurricanrana on Donovan Duke as SOSA connects… YET DONOVAN DUKE DEMONSTRATING WHAT FREAK OF NATURE HE IS AS HE MUSTERS ALL HIS STRENGTH, WILL, AND POWER TO GRAB ONTO SOSA! DONOVAN DUKE PICKS HIM UP IN A POWERBOMB POSITION AND SLAMS HIM RIGHT DOWN ONTO THE APRON AS DONOVAN STUMBLES BACK A HIT RIGHT ONTO OUR TABLE AFTERWARDS!!!

Referee: SIX!

Referee: SEVEN!

Referee: EIGHT!

Deadprez: Donovan Duke quickly slides inside the ring and slides back out of the ring as the count restarts! He knows that he’s going to have to play SOSA’s game if he wants to get the edge on him. The fans are VERY loud here tonight as it energizes Donovan Duke! Donovan starts to pull down the straps awwww man we might be seeing him pull out some crazy suplexes now to weaken SOSA here tonight as he quickly grabs SOSA, picks him up, and sets him up for a Tiger Suplex right onto our table! NASTY! THAT WAS REAL NASTY FROM DONNIE!

Referee: ONE!

Referee: TWO!

Referee: THREE!

Eve: I’m surprised the table has been broken after how many times they’ve slammed each other down on it, but Donovan is in his bag right now as he looks at the slumped down SOSA Henderson… Not wasting any precious time now, Donovan picks up SOSA with a headlock while dragging him towards the apron, puts him up while setting up for a DDT variant from off the apron, and SLAMS SOSA’s head right back into the floor!

Referee: FOUR!

Referee: FIVE!

Eve: Seems like Donovan is satisfied with his work on the outside as once again he picks up SOSA, but this time he throws him inside the ring as he follows suit with both of them back inside the ring! Looks like Donovan Duke wants to keep working on the right leg as he starts to put it in a leg lock of sorts and starts wrenching on it attempting to weaken it some more!

Gavin Kirkland: Not so fast as SOSA is able to use his free leg to lock Donovan Duke’s head with his leg for some type of headlock variation, but Donovan Duke quickly escapes from it with a kip-up and immediately after SOSA goes for a kip-up as well stumbling a bit after the landing as Donovan tries to go for a grapple take down… SOSA is too fast as he moves around and as Donovan turns around is met with a Superkick from SOSA that sends him off the ropes as he bounces off them! SOSA Henderson, quick to notice, quickly grabs Donovan Duke as he hits him with a beautifully Spanish Fly! What a big opportunity here for SOSA as he gets up and starts to head to the nearest top rope. He climbs to the very top and GOES FOR A “SOSA BOMB” SWANTON BOMB THAT CONNECTS! SOSA NOW GOING FOR THE COVER!!!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Referee: THREEEEEEE-!!!

Eve: Donovan Duke able to kick out before the three count! SOSA doesn’t look that surprised however as he slowly gets back up while kicking Donovan Duke so he slowly gets up as the groggy Donovan Duke is struggling to stay up, SOSA runs the ropes for momentum as he tries to hit Donovan Duke with a Frankensteiner, but Donovan Duke being able to quickly push SOSA away, BUT SOSA GOES FOR “STOLE YO BITCH” OUT OF NOW-

Gavin Kirkland: DONOVAN DUKE ABLE TO KEEP SOSA HENDERSON UP IN THE AIR BEFORE DROPPING HIM DOWN WITH A BACK SUPLEX! WHAT A BEAUTIFUL COUNTER FROM MR. CASH IN THE VAULT AS HE WAS ABLE TO SCOUT THAT OUT BEFORE HE WAS HIT WITH IT! Donovan Duke though rolls back up on his feet as he picks up the downed SOSA and positions him for what looks like a DEVASTATING Running Powerslam right in the middle of the ring! This may be a bad situation for SOSA to be in as Donovan Duke starts looking at SOSA’s right leg that he’s been working on for a bit since the match started as he grabs onto the leg and hooks in an Ankle Lock! THE ANKLE LOCK IS IN AND SOSA IS RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE RING AS HE ATTEMPTS TO CRAWL TO THE NEAREST ROPE!!!

Deadprez: It don’t matter how hard SOSA tries to get that rope break, Donovan Duke continues to pull him back, wrenching that Ankle Lock tighter and tighter, but it don’t look like SOSA’s gonna stop trying… Just like Donovan Duke doesn’t look like he’s going to let that Ankle Lock be broken any time soon as he’s looking to stop SOSA from moving for good with Donnie trying to turn that Ankle Lock from just a regular one into a Grapevine Ankle lock… Donovan Duke now hooking his legs onto the Ankle Lock…

…

…

…

Eve: SOSA THOUGH ABLE TO TURN AROUND JUST ENOUGH TO KICK DONOVAN AWAY FROM HIM LAST MINUTE TO FREE HIMSELF FROM THAT ANKLE LOCK!!! The damage has been done already, but I suppose it’s better to be free than to be locked in an Ankle Lock and without having any mobility at all…SOSA finally gets back up on his feet struggling a bit after just barely escaping that submission hold, but Donovan Duke prepared to knock SOSA’s with a Clothesline, but SOSA quickly ducking under that attempt as he quickly goes towards the ropes! Donovan Duke turns around as fast as he possibly can, but SOSA Henderson is ready as he hits Donnie with a Springboard Dropkick that sends Donovan Duke down to the mat!

Gavin Kirkland: That Springboard Dropkick landing may have affected SOSA Henderson a bit, but he’s back up after momentarily checking on his right leg as he starts to kick Donovan’s face forcing him to slowly and sloppily get up from the ring back until he’s forced to slightly kneel… SOSA has Donovan Duke now dazed and confused as he starts to go pick him up and it looks like SOSA may be looking for another Back Suplex- NO! SOSA Henderson goes for a Back Suplex Backbreaker continuing to work on the back of Donovan Duke as the knee connects viciously before SOSA just tosses Donovan Duke to the side! SOSA Henderson is more than ready to end this match as he stumbles his way to the nearest turnbuckle limping a bit from his right leg as he slowly starts to climb to the very top… After a few seconds he’s at the very top and dives off looking for another “SOSA BOMB” SWANTON BOMB!!! SOSA NOW GOING FOR THE COVER AS HE NOTICES THE ROPES NEARBY AS HE PUTS HIS FEET ON THEM FOR ASSISTANCE ON THE PIN AS HE GOES FOR THE COVER!!!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Referee: THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

…

…

…

Referee: ROPE BREAK!

Deadprez: AWWWW MAN SOSA ALMOST HAD THE WIN RIGHT THERE BUT THE REFEREE WAS ABLE TO CATCH HIM TRYNNA STEAL THE WIN HERE TONIGHT USING THOSE ROPES! SOSA now very angry slams his hand down on the mat as he struggles to get up while arguing with the referee that he basically had won the match already, but he doesn’t notice that he’s giving Donovan Duke time to recover as he starts to slowly drag himself towards the ropes and uses them to help himself back up on his feet as he attempts to approach SOSA Henderson from behind…

Gavin Kirkland: “STOLE YO BITCH” OUT OF NO- NO, DONOVAN DUKE ABLE TO PUSH SOSA AWAY ONCE AGAIN AS SOSA TURNS AROUND AND IS MET WITH “DEALER’S CHOICE” AS THE SPINNING BACKFIST CONNECTS! DONOVAN NOT LETTING SOSA GO DOWN TO THE MAT JUST YET AS HE GRABS HIS ARM AND PICKS HIM UP IN A FIREMAN CARRY POSITION! DONOVAN DUKE NOW CONNECTING WITH “DUKE OF HAZARD” AS THE FIREMAN’S CARRY BACK-TO-BELLY PILEDRIVER CONNECTS!!! THE THIRD TIME’S A CHARM AS QUICKLY DONOVAN GOES FOR THE COVER!!! WILL THIS BE IT?!?

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Referee: THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

…

…

…

Deadprez: SOSA HAS HIS FOOT ON THE ROPE AS THE REFEREE CALLS OFF THE COUNT!!! DONOVAN DUKE TOO FOCUSED ON PICKING UP THE WIN DID NOT NOTICE HOW CLOSE THOSE ROPES WERE AND THAT ALLOWED SOSA HENDERSON TO SAVE THIS MATCH FOR HIMSELF! It’s clear that Donovan Duke is not too happy about this as he has both his hands on his face before picking himself back up, metaphorically pulling his bootstraps up, and slowly picking up SOSA Henderson as he’s looking to hit him with a Deadlift German Suplex… He slowly picks him up and dumps him back down on the mat!

Eve: Donovan Duke though not finished with SOSA as he might be looking for a trifecta of German Suplexes as he picks up SOSA Henderson once again, and slams him down for the second German Suplex! The adrenaline is rushing through Donovan Duke’s system as clearly the damage to his back SOSA has targeted through the match is catching up as this time he picks up SOSA a bit slower than the last two times as he looks to hit the third German Suplex… SOSA Henderson goes up and… HE ESCAPES LANDING ON HIS FEET, STRUGGLING A BIT TO GET UP, BUT ABLE TO STAY UP AS HE WASTES NO TIME TO PICK UP DONOVAN DUKE AND HITS A LUMBAR CHECK ON DONOVAN DUKE!

Gavin Kirkland: Both men are seeing these targeted body parts of theirs taking effect on them, but that isn’t going to slow them one bit here tonight as Mr. Cash In The Vault and The 24/7 Contract Holder are looking to show the world who truly is not just better, but who deserves to be seen as THE top contender on Saturday Night Showdown. SOSA though looking like he wants to end things here NOW as he picks up Donovan Duke, hits him with a stiff slap to wake him up, and tries to Irish-Whip Donovan Duke towards the ropes… Donovan Duke however is able to reverse it into an Irish-Whip of his own that sends SOSA towards the ropes which he rebounds off them as Donovan Duke is ready to grapple him down…

Deadprez: SOSA Henderson though able to roll over the back of Donovan Duke as he stands behind him, quickly turns him around, and hits him with a “STOLE YO BITCH” THAT CONNECTS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE RING! DONOVAN DUKE DON’T GOT ANY ROPES TO HELP HIM GET OUT OF THIS ONE AS SOSA GOES FOR THE COVER! AWWW MAN THIS MIGHT BE IT AFTER THAT NASTY NASTY “STOLE YO BITCH”!!!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Referee: THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

…

…

…

Eve: DONOVAN DUKE ABLE TO KICK OUT OF THAT “STOLE YO BITCH” SOMEHOW SOMEWAY AND IT IS CLEAR THAT SOSA HENDERSON THOUGHT THAT WAS GOING TO BE ALL IT TOOK!!! SOSA looks at Donovan Duke for a quick second before he picks himself back up and starts dragging Donovan Duke closer to the ropes as he exits out of the ring and starts to grab the ropes. SOSA using those ropes as he attempts to him poot Donovan with a Slingshot Double Foot Stomp, but Donovan Duke able to roll out of the way last minute as SOSA’s right leg gives up on him as he’s forced to be kneel on one knee giving Donovan Duke enough time to get back up on his feet!

Gavin Kirkland: SOSA Henderson back up to as Donovan Duke sees an opportunity as he goes for a Stiff Lariat one more time as SOSA attempts to dodge it once again, which he does, but is quickly put back down as Donovan Duke quickly turns around and hits him with a Stiff Lariat to the back of the head! Learn and adapt at its finest ladies and gentlemen as he finally gets that Lariat to connect in a beautiful manner as well! Donovan does not let SOSA off easily as he starts to pick him back up and positions him for a Military Press as he puts SOSA up above his head showing some signs of struggle, but puts him back down with a Military Press Drop!

Deadprez: Immediately after Donovan Duke goes for a flawless Standing Shooting Star Press into SOSA here… I’ve got a real bad feeling about this situation, but SOSA uses his veteran ring awareness to pull himself out of the ring while trying to get back up with the help from the ropes… Donovan Duke ain’t letting SOSA even get an opportunity to get on the offense though as he grabs SOSA real quick and tosses him back into the ring, but SOSA uses his insane athleticism to land on his feet! At least he tries as his right left seems to completely give up. The referee now goes to check up on SOSA Henderson as SOSA seems to struggle to get back up…

Eve: We might have an injury on our hands here tonight ladies and gentlemen, but it seems Donovan Duke ain’t buying it one bit as he has an opening while SOSA attempts to limp towards Donovan Duke as he’s looking to hit the clearly hurt SOSA Henderson with another “Dealer’s Choice” as he goes for the Spinning Back Fist on SOSA…

…

…

…

Gavin Kirkland: SOSA TOUGH PULLS THE REFEREE TOWARDS DONOVAN DUKE AS HE ACCIDENTALLY LAYS THE REFEREE OUT WITH THE “DEALER’S CHOICE” SPINNING BACK FIST!!! SOSA IS SHOWING A VERY SINISTER SMIRK ON HIS FACE AS HE ROLLS OUT OF THE RING WHILE DONOVAN DUKE CONTINUES TO CHECK ON THE REFEREE TRYING TO HELP HIM REGAIN HIS CONSCIOUSNESS!!!

Deadprez: Is he stupid? Is he dumb? He’s giving SOSA an opportunity to recover as SOSA is pulling up toward our direction as he snatches Donovan Duke’s Cash In The Vault briefcase and slides back into the ring as he SMACKS the back of the head of Donovan Duke with it!!! I suppose if you’re not cheating you ain’t trying on this occasion as Donovan Duke is completely laid out in the ring, but SOSA ain’t done just yet as he continues to have that briefcase in his grasp before picking up Donovan’s head and placing that briefcase underneath…

Eve: This is NOT a good sign for Donovan Duke whatsoever as SOSA Henderson is looking to end this match for GOOD! SOSA is now setting up Donovan Duke for… GARNISHMENT AS THESE ENDLESS CURB STOMPS ON THE BRIEFCASE KEEP GOING!!! THIS IS ASSAULT AT THIS POINT AS SOSA KICKS THE CASE OUT OF THE RING AFTER HE’S HAD HIS FUN, TURNS DONOVAN DUKE OVER, AND DRAGS THE REFEREE OVER AS SOSA GOES FOR THE COVER!!!

Deadprez: The referee is still down but it seems he’s regaining some conciousness and notices the pinfall… The referee is now starting the count; this may be over already…

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Referee: THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

…

…

…

(DING! DING! DING!)

Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen, here is your winner by pinfall… “BULLETPROOF”…. SOSAAAAAAAAAA HENDERSOOOOOOON!!!

(‘Faneto’ by Chief Keef is heard throughout the arena as the fans start to boo very loudly while SOSA Henderson is still sporting that sinister smirk knowing exactly what he has done here tonight.)

Deadprez: After this brutal back and forth match, it seems SOSA Henderson was able to outsmart Donovan Duke here tonight and prove that between both of these two elitists, SOSA Henderson is the better one.

Eve: How can anyone claim SOSA is the better of these two after having to cheat to beat Donovan Duke?!? Regardless, it’s clear SOSA came to win here tonight and he did just that, proving that whoever is holding EAW Championship gold should be worried about The 24/7 Contract Holder coming after them.

Gavin Kirkland: It doesn’t matter how someone wins; what matters is the results of the match itself and it’s clear that SOSA Henderson was the better one here tonight. Quite frankly, I believe that SOSA has proven himself as a deserving top contender here tonight and while Donovan Duke fought valiantly here tonight… He just wasn’t good enough to take down “The King of Philly” himself here tonight!

(SOSA Henderson is seen grabbing his 24/7 Contract still smirking like a mad man as he celebrates his win here tonight while slowly walking to the back soaking in the negative reaction of the fans while the camera transitions to show Donovan Duke still out cold after the devastating attack witnessed tonight before the screen fades to black.)

(Midsummer Massacre returns from the break as the screen begins flashing the details of the next match.)

(The scene then fades from the screen down to Gina Romano, standing under the spotlight and smiling, excited to announce the match as well.)

Gina Romano: THE FOLLOWING CONTEST IS A FATAL 5-WAY MATCH FOR A FUTURE CHAMPIONSHIP OPPORTUNITY AND IT’S SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL!

Crowd: ONE FALL!

(‘Bad Blood’ by Taylor Swift (feat. Kendrick Lamar) hits the PA system, and the Chaifetz Arena erupts in cheers as Auburn Ware makes her way from behind the curtain up to the stage, waving at the fans. She quickly locks in her focus and heads toward the ring, determined to fight for the championship as soon as she wins this match.)

Gina Romano: INTRODUCING FIRST!… FROM BULAWAYO, ZIMBABWE!.. WEIGHING IN AT 119 POUNDS!…. THE PRODIGY!!!!!… AUBURNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!…. WAREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!

Eve: Trained by the all-time great CM Bank$ himself, Auburn Ware is a young rookie looking to shine even brighter and live up to the Prodigy name tonight by fighting to become the champion. From a very young age, Auburn has been training, fighting, and working tirelessly for this very moment. Auburn is getting closer and closer to becoming one of the brightest young stars. Tonight, she is about to be more than just that.

Gavin Kirkland: Come on now, Auburn Ware isn’t just “one of” but THE GREATEST rookie of all time! I mean, let’s recognize, when was the last time we even got a rookie we could actually care about since Caroline?! This is truly a generational talent, and by talent, I mean EVERYTHING—not just in the ring!

Eve: :jr:

Deadprez: Oh nah, you going to jail.

Gavin Kirkland: !??! I’m talking about mic ability! Ugh, come on guys!

(Auburn Ware enters the ring and looks down at the ground. She’s deep in thought, imagining what she’s about to witness. She retreats to her corner, waiting for the others to come out. ‘Ich Tu Dir Weh’ by Rammstein hits right afterward. Hardcore Luna comes out, showing off some kicks and steps she has been practicing. The crowd has mixed reactions about her, but that’s beside the point for Luna. She looks up at Auburn Ware as she makes her way toward the ring for this match.)

Gina Romano: NEXT!… FROM DIAMOND HEAD, HAWAII!… WEIGHING IN AT 170 POUNDS!… THE DIVA OF VIOLENCE!!!!!… HARDCOREEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!… LUUUUUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!

Eve: Hardcore Luna is here despite not being heard from much this week. Maybe she has been taking her time off to prepare herself specifically for this match.

Deadprez: She is also a rookie, in contrast to Auburn Ware, except Auburn has achieved more so far. Both have talent, but we have to see whose talent can really back it up in the ring.

Gavin Kirkland: It’s gotta be Auburn Ware! Though Luna is sexy.

Deadprez: We get it man! You are GOONING for her! Now shut the hell up!

Gavin Kirkland: I’m not a goon! I’m all about dignity and kindness!!!!!!

Eve: Me when I lie.

Gavin Kirkland: :wtf:

(‘Ballad of a homeschooled girl’ by by Olivia Rodrigo now hits as Hardcore Luna steps into the ring, with Brianna Hill making her way to the stage, an annoyed expression evident on her face. Brianna has already been through a lot since the events at Pain For Pride this year. She is looking to redeem herself for La Familla and aims to make this match one to remember.)

Gina Romano: NEXT!… FROM CANCÚN, MEXICO!… WEIGHING IN AT 119 POUNDS!… EL ALMA DE LA FAMILIA!… KNOWN AS THE SOUL OF LA FAMILIA!… BRIANNAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!… HILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!

Eve: Remember what transpired at Pain For Pride? I’m certain Brianna Hill hasn’t been content since then, particularly given she had to contend with Aria and a host of other women all week culminating in this moment. Brianna is resolute in silencing them all with her actions.

Gavin Kirkland: She won’t be able to achieve that with Auburn Ware, just saying. BUT BUT It’s Brianna Hill so maybe!!!!!!!!

Deadprez: What is wrong with you man?

(Brianna Hill enters the ring and begins arguing with both Auburn and Luna, who are already there waiting for her. Then all eyes turn when ‘Who’s Gonna Save U Now?’ by Rina Sawayama starts playing, with Aria’s chant replacement at the intro of the song. Aria walks out to massive boos from the sold-out Chaifetz Arena crowd. Everyone despises Aria, but it’s something she has accepted to go along with. Aria heads towards the ring, ignoring everything around her, and starts quarreling with Brianna Hill, especially given the turmoil both have experienced this week.)

Gina Romano: NEXT!… FROM CHANDLER, ARIZONA!… WEIGHING IN AT 110 POUNDS!… THE PARIAH!!!!!!… ARIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!… LESTRADEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gavin Kirkland: Here’s Aria Lestrade. As I mentioned weeks ago on Showdown, this is supposed to be the realest Aria we have seen yet. Pinning Bronson Daniels for the count of three might as well confirm that, even though it was just a tag team competition. The theme sounds familiar.

Eve: I think so. I don’t remember things like that, but anyway, Aria has promised that this week is going to be her week. Aria is highly focused coming into this match, just like the others, and she’s looking not just to seek approval, but to seek gold and opportunities that will come in handy.

Deadprez: Aria has caused a lot of damage to herself, and this is one of those instances, but perhaps it’s for the best. Aria may have wanted it this way after all, and it could benefit her much more in what she’s doing right now. She could win this match with this attitude; it’s becoming more predictable the more you look at it and think about it.

(The women arguing in the ring then look back to the stage for the final participant of this match to come out. ‘STFU!’ by Rina Sawayama plays right after one of her songs as Miku Sakai walks out, embracing the atmosphere of the arena. She takes off her entrance cape and heads straight to the ring, having been waiting for this fight all week.)

Gina Romano: AND LAST!… FROM FUKUI, JAPAN!… WEIGHING IN AT 110 POUNDS!… MIKUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!… SAKAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Eve: Former member of Idol-Gun and former EAW Specialist Champion, Miku Sakai, joins Aria Lestrade in this match. Miku has struggled repeatedly to add to her accolades, often failing to conquer her goals. Tonight, Miku is determined to compete and soon fight for the championship once again. Will she be able to do it? We’ll just have to wait and see.

Gavin Kirkland: No because Auburn Ware will-

Deadprez: No.

Gavin Kirkland: :slight_frown:

(DING DING DING!)

Gavin Kirkland: Fatal Five Ways has officially begun to find out who will be fighting for the championship in the near future WITH AUBURN WARE IMMEDIATELY IN THE SPOTLIGHT!!!!!!! :krabs:

Deadprez: ARIA, MIKU, AND BRIANNA ARE ALL CHARGING TOWARDS HER SIMULTANEOUSLY, DELIVERING STOMPS IN UNISON AND INFLICTING A SIGNIFICANT WOUND UPON THE PRODIGY RIGHT FROM THE START!

Gavin Kirkland: Is this because she is the biggest threat in the match, or do they simply hate her? What did Auburn do to deserve this treatment??!?!?

Eve: I think it’s the latter, but now all eyes are turning towards Hardcore Luna, who has been left alone in the ring. All three turn back with Aria Lesterade taking the first step to take her out-

Gavin Kirkland: A HAIR PULL BACKBREAKER ON ARIA BY BRIANNA HILL! Brianna makes a sneaky move taking ARIA out by breaking her back in half! Brianna gets onto her feet and kicks ARIA, sending her rolling out of the ring!

Brianna Hill: (Off-Mic) Eat shit, bitch!

Deadprez: Keep your eyes on the match, guys! Hardcore Luna takes this moment and charges towards Brianna Hill!… A ZERO FIGHTER KICK TAKES BRIANNA’S HEAD OFF AND SENDS HER THROUGH THE ROPES DOWN OUTSIDE THE RING! Hardcore Luna has just made the move, and now she’s commanding this match! It’s down to her and Miku Sakai!

Gavin Kirkland: Miku Sakai wastes no time and makes a beeline towards Hardcore Luna, sending her back-first into the corner with a shoulder to the gut! Another shoulder tackle connects with Hardcore Luna from Miku Sakai, giving her the upper hand.

Deadprez: Miku now makes her move, whipping Luna towards the opposite corner. Luna crashes into the corner as Miku follows up with full steam ahead… A RUNNING DROPKICK TAKES HARDCORE LUNA DOWN WITH AUTHORITY!

Eve: Action is going to continue here! Miku is the one standing tall, but the dance won’t end there. ARIA grabs the rope and flies off, looking for a springboard maneuver on Miku Sakai! Miku Sakai slides out of her way, with ARIA landing safely on the canvas, rolling back onto her feet, and facing Miku. Miku delivers a quick kick to the gut, followed by a hard forearm club, putting ARIA onto both of her knees!

Deadprez: Miku is now setting off, running towards the ropes, making a beeline straight… ARIA RETURNS TO HER FEET AND DELIVERS A STEP-UP ENZUIGIRI STOPPING MIKU IN HER TRACKS!

Gavin Kirkland: Lestrade is looking to press her advantage, getting back to her feet, seizing Miku by the wrist and pushing her towards the ropes, sending her to the opposite side-

Eve: BUT MIKU INTERCEPTS! Miku twists her wrist out and delivers a kick to Aria’s gut, seizing her and tucking her in… SPRINGBOARD TORNADO DDT BY MIKU SAKAI, AND DOWN GOES ARIA LESTRADE!

Gavin Kirkland: Look who’s back in the ring now! Brianna Hill slips back inside and rolls Miku up from behind once she regains her footing! Brianna is aiming to take the opportunity away from everyone right here!

ONEEEEEEEEEEEE!

(….)

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Gavin Kirkland: TWO COUNTS! :whew: I thought that was it!

Deadprez: She’s not really going to let this very crucial opportunity slip through her fingers so easily! Miku rolls back to her feet now, and Brinna Hill makes another attempt to take her down charging towards her like a raging bull!

Eve: Miku sidesteps causing Brianna to go flying through the ropes and down to the apron, clinging to the middle rope for dear life!

Deadprez: Miku dashes towards her, aiming to connect with a forearm, but Brianna also manages to sidestep… AN ENZUIGIRI FROM THE APRON SENT MIKU REELING BACK TO THE CENTER OF THE RING!

Eve: Brianna Hill is now getting a grip on reality and could very well be looking to springboard back into the ring-

Gavin Kirkland: AUBURN WARE! :heart_eyes:

Eve: THE PRODIGY HAS RISEN FROM HER SLUMBER YANKING BRIANNA’S LEG OUT OF MID-AIR AND SENDING HER FACE-FIRST ONTO THE APRON! IN THE PROCESS, AUBURN GRABS BRIANNA AND HURLS HER INTO THE BARRICADE LIKE A RAG DOLL!

Deadprez: Auburn is on a roll and she’s out for blood! Auburn gets back into the ring, and here comes ARIA, one of the women who took her down earlier, looking to stop her momentum with a Superkick!… AUBURN SEES THE ATTACK COMING, CATCHES THE KICK, SPINS AROUND…. KNOCKING ARIA DOWN WITH A SPINNING BACK FIST!

Gavin Kirkland: TWO DOWN! LET’S GO AUBURN!!!!!! Miku charges toward Auburn, full of momentum looking for the Cat Scratch Fever!!!! WATCH OUT!

Eve: AUBURN GRABS THOSE HANDS LIKE A VICE AND WON’T LET GO! MIKU GIVES IT HER ALL TO BREAK THROUGH! AUBURN IS STILL DETERMINED TO HOLD HER GROUND!… AUBURN SWATS THOSE HANDS AWAY AND THE CAT SCRATCH FEVER HITS HARDCORE LUNA WHO’S STANDING RIGHT NEXT TO THEM!

Deadprez: Auburn is delighted by the magic unfolding before her eyes, is this divine intervention??? Auburn charges towards the ropes and springs back to both Miku and Luna… A SPRINGBOARD SPINNING HEEL KICK TAKES BOTH LUNA AND MIKU OUT AT ONCE! THE PRODIGY HAS CLEARED THE HOUSE!

Eve: There’s no time to rest on her laurels right now. Auburn snapped back to reality, refocusing her attention on the game. Auburn, on the outside, grabbed Brianna Hill, whom she had taken down earlier, and tossed her back inside the ring.

Gavin Kirkland: Auburn is slowly stalking Brianna, looking like she might be ready to take flight. Auburn made her way to the top rope. Brianna remained grounded as Auburn climbed up- HEY! SOMEONE SPRANG UP TO THE TOP!

Deadprez: IT’S ARIA LESTRADE! She’s already bounced back from the taste of her own medicine and now looks to give Auburn a dose of her own!… ARIA PUT SOME MUSCLE INTO HER MASTERY AND SENT AUBURN CRASHING TO THE CANVAS WITH THE SUPERPLEX!!!!

Eve: NO NO, NOT JUST THERE! Lestrade isn’t done yet; she smoothly transitioned and rolled through to her feet with Auburn still firmly in her grip!…. BRAINBUSTER BY ARIA DROPS AUBURN HARD TO THE MAT!

Gavin Kirkland: Aria sprang to her feet and didn’t waste a second making her move towards her target!…. SHOOTING STAR PRESS ON AUBURN WARE!!!!!!!! ARIA WITH THE RUNNING SHOOTING STAR PRESS JUST CRASHED RIGHT ONTO HER! ARIA HOOKS THE LEG! COME ON AUBURN! KICK OUT!

ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

(….)

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

(….)

Deadprez: POW!!! A RUNNING BASEMENT DROPKICK FROM BRIANNA HILL TO ARIA’S FACE BREAKS UP A PIN!

Eve: That’s one way to stop your opponent in their tracks. ARIA gets to her feet, holding her face in pain from the hard dropkick that just connected with her. ARIA rolls to the side as Brianna Hill follows, picking her up and putting her back against the ropes… BRIANNA WITH A HARD CHOP RIGHT ACROSS ARIA’S CHEST!

Gavin Kirkland: ARIA looks like she’s been struck by lightning from the shockwave of that chop. How on earth can this woman deliver a chop like that?! Must have really got some real work in her training this week for this match! Brianna continues to get a grip on ARIA, now sending her flying towards the corner behind her… ARIA ENDS UP CRASHING SHOULDER-FIRST INTO THE RING POST, CAUSING HER TO FALL TO THE OUTSIDE OF THE RING! BRIANNA INDEED HAS THE UPPER HAND TONIGHT TO WALK AWAY WITH THE WIN!

Deadprez: ARIA is out! but Brianna still has more fish to fry this week. Hardcore Luna is back into the ring and quickly tucks Brianna under her shoulder from behind… HARDCORE LUNA LOOKING FOR THE LIFTING SPINNING REVERSE DDT ON BRIANNA HILL!

Eve: Brianna manages to turn the tables by gripping her technique and using her knee, sending it towards Luna over her head and connecting right down to her nose, knocking Luna for a loop!

Gavin Kirkland: Brianna is free and ends up near the ropes. She charges towards Luna with a knee to her gut, sending her down to the ropes before sending her running to the opposite side of the ring… BRIANNA RUNS BACK AT LUNA AND TRIES TO CONNECT WITH THE BREAKTHROUGH KICK, BUT LUNA ROLLS UNDERNEATH THE KICK! She ends up hitting the deck as she leaps into the air, her kick flying through the air-

Eve: SPRINGBOARD FOREARM SMASH!!!!!!! AS BRIANNA GETS BACK TO HER FEET, MIKU, WHO IS ON THE APRON IN FRONT OF HER, IMMEDIATELY CONNECTS WITH A SPRINGBOARD FOREARM SMASH! DOWN GOES BRIANNA HILL!

Deadprez: Miku hits the Springboard Forearm Smash, but here comes Hardcore Luna from behind, putting her in position… LUNA HITS THE RIPCORD ELBOW STRIKE!!! IT’S CONNECTING ACROSS MIKU’S TEMPLE!!!

Eve: Hardcore Luna is looking to light Miku up and backs down to the ropes, rebounding from there… FLYING TOWARDS MIKU FOR THE LADY CASTIEL UPPER ELBOW SMASH!!!!!!!

Gavin Kirkland: RUNNING KNEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MIKU ISN’T GOING DOWN WITHOUT A FIGHT AND JUST SENDS LUNA’S SOUL FLYING WITH A DESTRUCTIVE KNEE MID-RUN WHEN SHE WAS GOING FOR THE MASSIVE ELBOW SMASH!

Deadprez: Look up there! Auburn Ware is on the top! I don’t think Miku sees what’s coming her way! Miku tries to get back up, but it might be too late! Auburn Ware is on the prowl!…. A BEAUTIFUL MOONSAULT SENTON CRASHING ONTO MIKU SAKAI’S BACK! AUBURN WARE HAS MIKU AND SHE GOES FOR THE COVER!

ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

(….)

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

(….)

Deadprez: TWO! MIKU KICKS OUT!

Gavin Kirkland: We’ve got some GREAT action unfolding in this match so far. There’s no doubt in mind these five women are putting their talents on the line for this championship opportunity. There’s no doubt that what they are doing right now is PEAK of their abilities! No puns intended, we do not stan that Australian moron who stole Queen Minerva from me!!!!!!!

Deadprez: Give it up, man. She’s already married.

Gavin Kirkland: LOOK HOW HE TREATS HER! SIGN THE DIVORCE PAPERS ASAP!!!!!!!!!!

Deadprez: ?????

Eve: ???? Anyway!!! Auburn Ware is back to standing tall in this match among these five women. She might not be catching a break right now as ARIA has just got back into the ring attempting to blindside Auburn with a clothesline!

Deadprez: Auburn ducks under it just in the nick of time! ARIA Lestrade swings and misses… AUBURN ATTEMPTS TO LEAP TOWARDS ARIA WITH A STANDING VARIATION OF THE SPINNING HEEL KICK BUT GETS CAUGHT!

Gavin Kirkland: ARIA HAS WISED UP THIS TIME SPINNING AUBURN AROUND… INTO A PERFECTLY EXECUTED BLUE THUNDER BOMB PLANTING AUBURN AT THE CENTER OF THE RING! ARIA HAS JUST TURNED THE TABLES ON AUBURN IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE!

Deadprez: PENALTY KICK FROM BRIANNA HILL!!! ARIA IS NOW FLOORED BY A POWERFUL PENALTY KICK FROM BRIANNA SENDING HER SPRAWLING… CAUSING ARIA TO ROLL BACK TO HER FEET AND DELIVER A SUPERKICK RIGHT TO BRIANNA’S JAW, SENDING HER REELING BACK INTO THE ROPES! MY GAWD!

Eve: BRIANNA FIRES BACK WITH A SUPERKICK OF HER OWN AND RETREATS FROM THE ROPES… BRIANNA CHARGED AT ARIA WITH A BICYCLE KNEE STRIKE! ARIA SIDE STEPS, CAUSING BRIANNA TO DRIVE HER KNEE THROUGH THIN AIR… HOOK KICK! ARIA THEN DELIVERS A HOOK KICK FROM BEHIND CATCHING BRIANNA’S FACE TWICE IN A ROW!…. FOLLOWED BY A REVERSE HURRICANRANA JUST HARDLY SPIKING BRIANNA TO THE GROUND! ARIA IS GOING ALL OUT—

Gavin Kirkland: BREAKTHROUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BRIANNA HILL, USING THE LAST OUNCE OF HER STRENGTH, STRIKES THE BREAKTHROUGH KICK ON THE BACK OF ARIA’S SKULL, AND BOTH WOMEN ARE DOWN! BUT HOW??????

Deadprez: These girls are pulling out all the stops in this match right now! They are doing everything but the kitchen sink to win! Brianna Hill and Aria Lestrade have gone down, but the ones who are back in the saddle are Miku Sakai and Auburn Ware! Auburn Ware takes a step further and connects with a right forearm to Miku before she can bat an eye!

Gavin Kirkland: Auburn is going for broke with the forearm barrage now raining all over Miku’s body and she’s absolutely on the ropes! From the gut to the chin to the side of her body, every single part of her body has been on the receiving end of Auburn’s forearm… AND AUBURN HITS MIKU WITH THE SHINY BROKEN PIECES! THE DISCUS ELBOW SMASH EVENTUALLY PUTS MIKU ON HER KNEES!

Eve: Miku is on her knees, struggling to stay off the ground! Auburn, aware of her tenacity, wastes no time and spins around… A SPINNING ROUNDHOUSE KICK SENDS MIKU BACK TO THE GROUND! AUBURN WARE HAS FLOORED MIKU YET AGAIN! She truly has some great momentum going into this match. She’s focused on the task at hand.

Gavin Kirkland: Eyes on Miku, Auburn is still not looking to let Miku go anywhere. The Prodigy aims to put the formidable demon in front of her down and now steps forward as soon as Miku gets back to both knees… RUNNING DOUBLE KNEE STRIKE ON SEATED MIKU!

Deadprez: HOLD ON A SECOND! Auburn is stuck on her knees as Hardcore Luna approaches from behind and seizes both wrists!… REVERSE KAMIGOYE TO THE BACK OF HER HEAD! THE KNEE STRIKE FROM BEHIND CONNECTS HARD!

Eve: AUBURN MIGHT BE OUT COLD AFTER THE BLOW! LUNA PICKS AUBURN UP RIGHT AFTERWARD FROM THE KNEES!… A BRIDGING GERMAN SUPLEX PLANTS AUBURN WARE IN THE CENTER OF THE RING!

Gavin Kirkland: SHE’S NOT DONE YET! LUNA’S GOT MORE TRICKS UP HER SLEEVE, FLIPPING OVER WITH AUBURN STILL LOCKED IN, BRINGING HER BACK TO HER FEET! HOW ON EARTH DID SHE DO THAT?!?!?!… A BRIDGING PUMPHANDLE HALF NELSON SUPLEX!!!! LUNA WITH THE ROLLING MAYAN INTO PEACH SUNRISE HAS JUST FIRMLY PLANTED AUBURN WARE ON THE GROUND FOR A COMPLETE COVER!

ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

(….)

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

(….)

Gavin Kirkland: AUBURN WARE KICKS OUT AT TWO!

Deadprez: This match has been getting the crowd hyped up repeatedly; you never know who could really be winning. They are all going crazy! The stakes are truly high! Hardcore Luna moves out of the way, and Auburn can be seen rolling down to the ground outside the ring. Miku is still reeling from those striking maneuvers. ARIA and Brianna are both scrambling to get back on their feet.

Eve: Luna aims for the biggest fish, quickly seizing Miku and sending her through the ropes to the outside of the ring. Miku, on the outside, regains some consciousness. Luna catches up with her and quickly yanks her hair from behind, trying to send Miku towards the post-

Gavin Kirkland: NO! Miku uses her right boot to thrust against the steel post, stopping Luna in her tracks! Miku quickly nails a back elbow right down towards her gut, causing Luna to drop to both knees. Miku now heads up to the apron. What is she cooking up here?

Deadprez: Luna holds onto her gut and gets to her feet… MIKU FLIES OFF AND NAILS THE RUNNING BLOCKBUSTER OFF THE APRON TAKING LUNA DOWN!

Gavin Kirkland: Back inside the ring, ARIA has just won the race to get back to her feet first and, telling Brianna “nuh uh,” she quickly drives her knee into Brianna’s gut, knocking the wind out of her. ARIA now presses Brianna against the corner… LANDING A CHOP RIGHT ACROSS BRIANNA’S CHEST TO FOLLOW UP!

Eve: Brianna, now reeling from the chop, gives ARIA the upper hand, and ARIA sends her to the opposite corner- BRIANNA GRABS THE ROPE WITH BOTH HANDS, USING IT TO CATAPULT HERSELF OUT OF THE CORNER DODGING A BULLET!

Deadprez: She now turns back and beckons ARIA in for a run-in. ARIA charges towards her without hesitation… BRIANNA PULLS A FAST ONE, SENDING HER CHEST-FIRST CRASHING INTO THE CORNER!… AND ARIA FALLS RIGHT INTO A SAITO SUPLEX BY BRIANNA HILL!

Gavin Kirkland: ARIA has been taken down this time, and now Brianna Hill is taking her sweet time heading up to the top corner while ARIA is already down there! Brianna eventually reaches the top and could be aiming to launch herself off! She might be looking for a diving elbow drop!

Deadprez: NO BECAUSE SOMEONE HAS JUST COME AROUND THE CORNER AND STOPPED HER IN HER TRACKS! IT’S MIKU SAKAI! MIKU JUST GOT BACK TO HER FEET IN THE NICK OF TIME AND PUT THE KIBOSH ON BRIANNA’S OFFENSE!

Eve: Miku is up on top, and she has Brianna instead! Miku is setting up for something nasty here! She’s got Brianna, but Brianna is refusing to be her crash dummy!… :krabs:

Gavin Kirkland: AHHHHHHHHH! OH NO! MIKU BITES HER HEAD! BRIANNA HILL ABSOLUTELY HATES IT! Brianna Hill is powerless and has just been bitten on her head… CAT SCRATCH FEVER STUNS BRIANNA HILL EVEN MORE! MIKU EVENTUALLY GETS HOLD OF HER! OH NO!… MIKU WITH THE AVALANCHE SUNSET FLIP POWERBOMB FROM THE TOP DRIVING BRIANNA BACK TO THE GROUND!!!!!!!!!

Deadprez: DON’T BLINK BECAUSE ARIA HAS JUST GOTTEN ENOUGH TIME TO BOUNCE BACK, AND SHE’S GOT HER SIGHTS SET ON MIKU, LOOKING TO SNAG A WIN FROM THIS ONE!… DEAD END!!!!!!

Eve: IT’S ONLY JUST A POINT OF NO RETURN! THE SWINGING BACK ELBOW TRIES TO KNOCK MIKU’S HEAD OFF, BUT MIKU INTERCEPTS THE ARM AND TURNS THE TABLES ON ARIA, TRAPPING HER ARM AND FLIPPING HER UPSIDE DOWN!…. STARFALL PLANTS ARIA PERFECTLY!

Gavin Kirkland: MIKU CONNECTS ARIA WITH THE VERTEBREAKER!!!!!! SHE GOES FOR A COVER! WOULD THIS BE IT????

ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

(….)

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

(….)

Gavin Kirkland: THREE- OHHHHHHHH!!!!!! STEP-SPLASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HARDCORE LUNA COMES OUT OF NOWHERE HITTING THE BACK SPLASH MOONSAULT AND BREAKING UP THE PINFALL, STOPPING MIKU FROM TAKING THIS OPPORTUNITY AWAY FROM HER!!! THESE WOMEN ARE FIGHTING TOOTH AND NAIL FOR THEIR LIVES!!!!

Eve: Luna impressively stops the pinfall from counting down to three. Meanwhile, Auburn manages to pull herself together and sneak into the ring from behind, nailing a dropkick that sends Standing Luna flying through the ropes and out of the ring! Here comes Auburn, already with her foot on the gas, running towards the ropes!…. TOPE CON HILO TAKES OUT HARDCORE LUNA INSTANTLY!

Deadprez: All eyes are on the student of the game! Auburn wastes no time getting back on her feet and rolling into the ring. ARIA, trying to regain her senses, now faces Auburn Ware, who is determined to finish the job!

Gavin Kirkland: Auburn jogs towards her and quickly slows ARIA down with a barrage of European Uppercuts raining down on her! One after another connects, leaving ARIA reeling from each blow! Auburn now turns ARIA around and looks to hit her own German Suplex!… ARIA FLIPS OVER THE GERMAN AND LANDS ON HER FEET! WHAT?!

Eve: OH NO! AUBURN REALIZES WHAT JUST HAPPENED AND TURNS AROUND TO FACE ARIA… THE RUNNING CLAYMORE KICK KNOCKS AUBURN DOWN!

Deadprez: SHE COULDN’T SEE THAT KICK COMING, AND ARIA PICKS HER UP FROM THE GROUND, PULLING HER IN! ARIA HOOKS THOSE ARMS AND MIGHT BE SETTING HER UP FOR THE FINISHER!… ZIRCON DRIVER-

Gavin Kirkland: OH MY GOD! HURRICANRANA INTO A ROLL-UP COVER! AUBURN WARE JUST USED BOTH OF HER LEGS TO TURN THE TABLES ON ARIA YET AGAIN CONVERTING A NEAR DEFEAT INTO A COVER AFTER ESCAPING THE TIGER DRIVER 98 FROM ARIA! ARIA HAS BEEN PINNED! SHE HAS BEEN CAUGHT OFF GUARD!

ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

(….)

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

(….)

Gavin Kirkland: THREE BUT NO! ARIA HAS JUST MANAGED TO KICK OUT IN THE NICK OF TIME! AUBURN WARE, POSITIONED IN THE CORNER, IS ALMOST IN DISBELIEF AT THE RABBIT SHE JUST PULLED OUT OF HER SLEEVE! ARIA IS NOT ONLY UNHAPPY BUT ALSO SHELL SHOCKED BY WHAT AUBURN HAS JUST DONE TO HER! ARIA IS FIRED UP AND SEEING RED READY TO COME AFTER POOR AUBURN!

Aria Lestrade: (Off-Mic) YOU BITC –

Eve: ARIA RUNS RIGHT INTO THE SPINNING ROUNDHOUSE KICK, CONNECTING ACROSS HER JAW FROM AUBURN WARE, ALMOST SENDING HER BACK TO SQUARE ONE!…

Deadprez: BOOM! AUBURN FOLLOWS UP WITH A SPINNING BACK FIST, TURNING ARIA COMPLETELY AROUND IN A FULL 360! … LOCKING HER IN AND AHHH LOOK AT THIS!!!… ARIA HAS JUST BEEN PLANTED BY AUBURN’S BRIDGING GERMAN SUPLEX INTO A COVER! UNFORTUNATELY NOT THIS TIME! AUBURN WITH A HUGE PAYBACK!

ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

(….)

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

(….)

Gavin Kirkland: THE REF IS JUST ABOUT TO LAND THE THREE-COUNT ON THAT PINFALL, BUT LOOK WHO’S STICKING HER NOSE BACK INTO THE BUSINESS! BRIANNA HILL! SHE INSERTS HERSELF BACK INTO THE MATCH, DRAGGING AUBURN TO HER FEET!… FIGURE FOUR LEG LOCK! FIGURE FOUR LEG LOCK!

Eve: AUBURN HAS BEEN CAUGHT IN THE FIGURE FOUR LEG LOCK FROM BRIANNA HILL IN THE CENTER OF THE RING AFTER BEING DRAGGED OUT OF THERE! AUBURN COULD BE HEARD CRYING IN AGONY!

Deadprez: SHE’S STUCK BETWEEN A ROCK AND A HARD PLACE! YOU ARE DONE FOR! THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT BRIANNA WOULD BE TELLING HER TO HER FACE RIGHT NOW WHILE LOCKING HER UP TIGHT!

Gavin Kirkland: This is a tight spot for Auburn Ware, but she might be able to pull a rabbit out of the hat sooner or later! Brianna Hill keeps the hold locked in tight, not letting Auburn squirm much after running circles around her for a while.

Deadprez: Auburn Ware is trapped, and it’s going to be a cold day in hell before she gets out of this! Hardcore Luna sneaks up from behind, but Brianna Hill doesn’t notice! Aria has just gotten to her feet as well, despite being taken down earlier with the German Suplex!

Eve: BOTH WOMEN ARE CLOSING IN ON BRIANNA AND AUBURN WHO ARE STUCK IN THE CENTER!… DOUBLE HOOK KICKS! ARIA’S HOOK KICK LANDS ON AUBURN’S HEAD, AND LUNA HITS HER OWN ON BRIANNA! BOTH WOMEN HAVE BEEN KNOCKED OUT OF THE SCENE WITH THOSE HOOK KICKS!

Gavin Kirkland: Hook Kick Party! But now, let’s zero in on someone who’s finally back in this match once again! Miku Sakai is back! Aria and Luna quickly join forces, trying to take her down with a double clothesline!

Deadprez: Double Swings, Double Misses! Miku ducks underneath their arms before sending Luna crashing into Aria and knocking her through the ropes down to the apron! Luna steadies herself and turns to face Miku… FACE FIRST TO THE GROUND! MIKU LEAPS TOWARDS HER AND PLANTS LUNA WITH A WHEELBARROW BULLDOG!

Eve: Luna is out for the count after the bulldog, and Miku sets her sights on Aria- WOW! SLINGSHOT DDT!!!!!! ARIA IMMEDIATELY JUMPS BACK INTO THE THICK OF IT, INSTANTLY CONNECTING WITH MIKU, SPIKING HER WITH THE SLINGSHOT DDT! ARIA ROLLS MIKU OVER FOR A COVER!

ONEEEEEEEEEEEE!

(….)

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

(….)

Eve: MIKU LIFTS HER SHOULDER OFF THE GROUND AT TWO! BUT THAT ISN’T GOING TO STOP ARIA FROM DOING WHAT SHE’S DOING RIGHT NOW IN THE RING. ARIA IS GETTING BACK ON HER FEET AND PICKING MIKU UP RIGHT AFTER THE SLINGSHOT DDT! ARIA HOISTS HER UP AND LOCKS IN TIGHT COULD BE LOOKING TO LAND GLITCH IN THE MATRIX!!!!!!!

Gavin Kirkland: Aria is trying to set up for the Styles Clash, but look who’s coming from the top! Auburn Ware is back on the second rope and Aria still has a hold of Miku Sakai!… A DIVING HURRICANRANA TAKES ARIA OUT OF THE PICTURE!

Deadprez: Down goes the Pariah! Aria is knocked for a loop and now she ends up rolling down against the corner, holding herself back. Auburn grabs both feet and is coming after Aria!… A VICIOUS RUNNING EUROPEAN UPPERCUT CONNECTS WITH ARIA IN THE CORNER! AUBURN THEN THROWS ARIA OVER HER SHOULDERS AND MOVES OUT OF THE CORNER!… AUBURN WITH THE FISHERMEN BUSTER PLANTS ARIA WITH IT!

Eve: Fisherman Buster connects, but Auburn can’t go for the pin just yet as she sees Brianna back on her feet and quickly heading her way!… SUICIDE DIVE THROUGH THE ROPES TAKING BRIANNA DOWN!

Gavin Kirkland: BRIANNA ON THE OUTSIDE COUNTERS WITH A RUNNING FOREARM, STRIKING DIRECTLY ACROSS AUBURN’S JAW AND LEAVING HER DRAPED OVER THE MIDDLE ROPE! BRIANNA PROMPTLY DRAGS HER OUTSIDE THE RING AND WASTES NO TIME… A SUPLEX FROM BRIANNA DRIVES AUBURN TO THE CONCRETE GROUND!

Deadprez: Hardcore Luna has entered the ring this time and is gradually finding her footing, getting back on track once more. Luna notices an opening on Miku and wastes no time, picking her up from the ground, locking her tightly, and MIGHT BE AIMING FOR ENDSHIP! THE SAITO SPECIAL 5 COULD SECURE A VICTORY RIGHT HERE!

Gavin Kirkland: Pressure has been applied! Miku intensifies the pressure on Luna, transitioning her into a headlock when she was attempting to execute the Endship, seizing the opportunity!

Eve: Miku capitalizes on the moment delivering repeated pointed elbows to the top of Luna’s head! Luna collapses to both knees, Miku now heads toward the ropes—LUNA INSTEAD PULLING HER BACK INTO A RIPCORD SHOULDER BUTT! LUNA SEIZES MIKU, AND HERE SHE GOES!… SPINNING SCRAP BUSTER SLAMS MIKU BACK TO THE GROUND!

Deadprez: Spinning Scrap Buster lands a bullseye, and the action looks to heat up from there. Brianna creeps up like a shadow from behind once Luna has floored Miku, smashing her face-first into the top turnbuckle!

Gavin Kirkland: And now Luna falls onto the middle rope, Brianna sneaks to the side… HOTLINE CONNECTS! THE TIGER FEINT KICK SENDS LUNA ROLLING BACK TOWARD THE CENTER OF THE RING LIKE A TUMBLEWEED! Brianna grabs the middle rope and springs back to her feet, heading to the top rope and raining down more offense!… DIVING CANNONBALL SENTON ON LUNA BY BRIANNA! SHE GOES FOR A COVER!

ONEEEEEEEEEEEE!

(….)

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

(….)

Eve: AUBURN WARE BARELY MAKES IT BACK INSIDE THE RING TO BREAK IT UP! Two counts, and Brianna is far from thrilled with the outcome. Spotting Auburn, who just broke it up, she wastes no time going after her!

Deadprez: She lands forearm clubs after forearm clubs onto Auburn’s back, trying to put her down for the count. Brianna gets back to a kneeling position and starts raining right hand after right hand into her face! Brianna is really making her pay the piper!

Gavin Kirkland: Now Brianna gets a grip on the situation, picking Auburn up by both feet and sending her into the corner, following up without missing a beat… BRIANNA KNOCKS HER BACK WITH A RUNNING JUMPING KNEE IN THE CORNER! Brianna Hill drags Auburn Ware out of there and back facing the corner… DRIVING AUBURN INTO THE CORNER WITH AN EXPLODER SUPLEX!!!!!!!!!

Eve: LOOK OUT! ARIA IS TRYING TO HEAD BACK INSIDE THE RING, TAKING DOWN THE RISING BRIANNA HILL WITH THE ZIRCON INJECTION AS SHE MAKES IT TO THE CENTER!!!!!!!!

Deadprez: INJECTING NOBODY!!! BRIANNA CATCHES HER, HOLDING ON TIGHT… TURNING ARIA AROUND AND PUSHING HER BACK TOWARDS THE ROPES… BICYCLE KNEE STRIKE ACROSS ARIA’S JAW BY BRIANNA HILL AS SOON AS SHE REBOUNDED! WHAT A SHOT!

Gavin Kirkland: INDEED! BRIANNA HILL HOOKS ARIA, FOLLOWING UP ON THE BICYCLE KNEE STRIKE WITH ADRENALINE PUMPING THROUGH HER VEINS!… THE GRUDGE!!!!!!! TIGER DRIVER CONNECTS AS ARIA GOES DOWN, AND BRIANNA HILL GOES FOR THE COVER AGAIN!!!!!! THIS TIME ON ARIA!!!!!!

ONEEEEEEEEEEEE!

(….)

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

(….)

Gavin Kirkland: BUT NO! ARIA LESTRADE KICKS OUT AT TWO! BRIANNA HILL IS IN DISBELIEF!

Eve: Brianna has indeed been pulling out all the stops to win this competition and work her way toward fighting for the championship in the near future. However, right now, she’s struggling to beat anyone she’s faced so far.

Deadprez: Brianna is fuming, but she’s determined to push through. As the heart and soul of La Familla, she can’t afford to let anyone down anymore! Brianna gets back on her feet and targets Aria, whom she recently floored with the Grudge…. SETTING HER UP FROM BEHIND, SHE LOOKS TO PUT THE FINAL NAIL IN THE COFFIN WITH CRUSH CULTURE!

Gavin Kirkland: SLEEPER HOLD! MIKU APPEARS OUT OF NOWHERE AND LEAPS ONTO BRIANNA’S BACK, TRYING TO PUT HER TO SLEEP! BRIANNA’S ROLLING CUTTER IS INTERCEPTED FROM BEHIND BY MIKU’S SUDDEN RETURN FROM THE SHADOWS!

Eve: MIKU EVENTUALLY RELEASES BRIANNA ONCE SHE’S CAUGHT HER IN THE CROSSFIRE!… JUMPING SNAPMARE SPIKES BRIANNA’S HEAD FIRST INTO THE GROUND!!!!

Deadprez: BRIANNA ENDS UP ROLLING TOWARDS THE CORNER AFTER THE JUMPING SNAPMARE, WITH MIKU CONTINUING HER RELENTLESS PURSUIT… SWEET CHEEK MUSIC CRACKS BRIANNA’S JAW IN THE CORNER!!!!!! A RUNNING CORNER STINK FACE AND BRIANNA COULD BE OUT COLD AFTER THIS! MIKU IS GOING FOR THE COVER!!

ONEEEEEEEEEEEE!

(….)

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

(….)

Gavin Kirkland: BRIANNA HILL KICKS OUT AT TWO! And look who’s back on their feet, going right after both women! Auburn Ware and Hardcore Luna are up and at ’em, ganging up on Brianna Hill and Miku Sakai, putting them down before they can even catch their breath!

Eve: Both Brianna and Miku are being stomped into the ground, eventually rolling out of the ring! Miku and Brianna struggle to their feet, but here comes Auburn, not wasting a second, ready to take them out! She’s climbing to the top rope, and look at her go! Auburn’s doing a tightrope walk up there and now the leapppppp!!!!!!!… SHOOTING STAR PRESS TO THE OUTSIDE, TAKING BOTH BRIANNA AND MIKU OUT IN ONE FELL SWOOP! AUBURN WARE IS UNBELIEVABLE!!!!

Deadprez: POW! FROM BEHIND IN THE RING! ARIA HAS JUST TAKEN DOWN HARDCORE LUNA WITH THE BACKSTABBER! ARIA GETS BACK ON HER FEET, YANKING HARDCORE LUNA UP BY HER HAIR, AND HERE’S WHAT SHE’S SETTING UP FOR!… A CURE FOR YOUR HEADACHE!!!!!! A TWISTING BRAINBUSTER SNUFFING OUT THE FIRE IN LUNA COMPLETELY! ARIA QUICKLY GOES FOR A COVER!!

Gavin Kirkland: AUBURN IS MAKING A MAD DASH TO GET BACK INSIDE THE RING AS FAST AS POSSIBLE TO STOP THE COUNT!

ONEEEEEEEEEEEE!

(….)

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

(….)

THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!-

(….)

(….)

Gavin Kirkland: YES! AUBURN DOES IT! THE COUNT IS BROKEN THE MOMENT SHE SLIDES BACK INTO THE RING AND TACKLES ARIA OFF THE COVER! AN INFURIATED ARIA LOOKS BACK TO SEE AUBURN WITH A SMUG GRIN PLASTERED ON HER FACE AFTER WHAT SHE’S DONE!

Eve: ARIA SHAKES HER HEAD IN DISBELIEF AND HEADS TO THE ROPES IMMEDIATELY AS AUBURN SCRAMBLES TO GET BACK ON HER FEET!… ZIRCON INJECTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Deadprez: WOAHHOOOOOOO!!!!! CAUGHT! CAUGHT! CAUGH! ARIA LEAPS TOWARDS AUBURN FOR THE ZIRCON INJECTION, BUT THE CUTTER IS REVERSED INTO THE KATA HA JIME! THE LOVELY BONES!

Gavin Kirkland: THAT COULD BE THE END, BUT IT’S NOT LOCKED IN YET! ARIA GRABS ONTO AUBURN’S ARMS AS SOON AS SHE’S CAUGHT, TRYING TO FEND OFF THE SUBMISSION HOLD TO FINISH THE MATCH!

Eve: ARIA IS DIGGING IN HER HEELS! SHE’S NOT LETTING AUBURN WARE GET THAT SUBMISSION FINISHER LOCKED IN TIGHT!

Gavin Kirkland: Aria finally gets a hold of Auburn and spins her around, landing right hand after right hand! Auburn Ware is on the ropes this time! Aria is throwing punches left and right while they’re both on the ground! Aria pulls Auburn to her feet and steps back… A SPINNING ELBOW STRIKE FROM ARIA TO AUBURN! ARIA LEANS BACK AGAINST AUBURN AND HEADS TO THE ROPES FOR A REBOUND-

Deadprez: UPPERCUT CAUGHT HER! AUBURN IS BACK ON HER FEET AND CONNECTS WITH A EUROPEAN UPPERCUT, STOPPING ARIA DEAD IN HER TRACKS! AUBURN BOUNCES OFF THE ROPES AND CHARGES BACK TOWARDS ARIA… AUBURN GOES FOR A RUNNING FOREARM STRIKE, BUT ARIA DUCKS UNDER THE ARM AND HOOKS THE ARMS!… SNAP DRAGON SUPLEX BY ARIA, SLAMMING AUBURN DOWN!

Eve: AUBURN ENDS UP ON HER KNEES, ARIA SETS HER SIGHTS AND PICKS AUBURN UP AFTERWARDS!… KAMIGOYE KNEE STRIKE TO AUBURN’S JAW! ARIA ISN’T DONE YET! SHE’S NOT LEAVING ANYTHING TO CHANCE! ARIA TUCKS AUBURN’S LEGS AND LIFTS HER UP!… GLITCH IN THE MATRIX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! STYLES CLASH CONNECTS WITH AUBURN AS ARIA IS ABOUT TO GO FOR THE COVER!

Gavin Kirkland: NO! SOMEONE IS UP ON THE TOP ROPE, AND IT’S MIKU SAKAI! SHE LEAPS OFF THE TOP, LOOKING TO CATCH LIGHTNING IN A BOTTLE BY HITTING ARIA WITH THIS ONE!… WALK OF SHAME!!!!!!! NO NO! NO FREAKING WAY!

Deadprez: ARIA CATCHES MIKU IN MID-AIR! SHE SENDS HER CRASHING BACK-FIRST TO THE GROUND AS SOON AS SHE LEAPS OFF THE TOP, IMMEDIATELY PULLING HER LEGS UP AND TYING MIKU UP WITH HER!… GLITCH IN THE MATRIX ON MIKU AS WELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Eve: LOOKS LIKE THE WALK OF SHAME JUST STUMBLED INTO HIGH DANGER! ARIA TURNS THE TABLES IN HER FAVOR AND GOES FOR THE COVER ON MIKU!!!!!

ONEEEEEEEEEEEE!

(….)

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

(….)

THRE-

Gavin Kirkland: THREE!!!!!!

Eve: OH!!!!!!!!! WHAT A RUNNING SOCCER BALL KICK TO THE CHEST FROM LUNA, KICKING ARIA AWAY FROM PINNING MIKU!!!!! THE COUNT OF THREE ISN’T FINALIZED AS HARDCORE LUNA MAKES IT BACK TO THE RING JUST IN THE NICK OF TIME, BREAKING UP THE PINFALL WITH HER OWN KICK!

Deadprez: LUNA IS A STEP AHEAD, ANTICIPATING ARIA’S NEXT MOVE AND CHARGES AT HER… THE HARLEM SIDEKICK TAKES DOWN ARIA! IT CONNECTS! ARIA HITS THE DECK AFTER THE KICK, AND LUNA SEIZES BOTH LEGS FROM BEHIND, POPPING HER BACK UP! ARIA IS LOCKED IN TIGHT!… LUNA IS PUTTING ARIA DOWN WITH THE SUPLEX DE LA LUNA!!!!! THE SAME MOVE SHE BEAT BRIANNA HILL WITH!!!!!!!

Gavin Kirkland: SHE CAN’T FINISH THE SUPLEX FINISHER! SOMEONE’S IN HER WAY! BRIANNA HILL! SHE’S PULLING ARIA DOWN JUST AS LUNA LEANS BACK, ABOUT TO LAND THE SUPLEX DE LA LUNA, STOPPING LUNA FROM SEALING THE DEAL!

Eve: ARIA HAS BEEN THROWN TO THE SIDE, BRIANNA BACKS AGAINST THE ROPES, WAITING FOR LUNA TO TURN AROUND! LUNA TURNS BACK AS BRIANNA HEADS OUT!… WHAT A KICK!!!!!! BRIANNA IS LOOKING TO HIT THE BREAKTHROUGH KICK BUT IT’S MET WITH A KICK FROM LUNA! LUNA’S ENZUI BLADE KICK JUST TOOK BRIANNA’S HEAD OFF!

Deadprez: LUNA STEPS UP ON HER BACK AND THE ROMERO FOOT STOMP JUST SNAPPED BRIANNA’S SPINE IN HALF! LUNA IS ON FIRE, LIVING BY HER PHILOSOPHY! LUNA HEADS UP TO THE SECOND ROPE!

Gavin Kirkland: BRIANNA CAN BARELY GET BACK TO HER FEET, LET ALONE HER KNEES, BUT LUNA ISN’T CONCERNED ABOUT ANY OF THAT! LUNA DIVES OFF THE SECOND ROPE!… PANAMA SUNRISE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT JUST SPIKED BRIANNA!!!!!! LUNA ROLLS BRIANNA OVER AND SHE GOES FOR A COVER!!!!! LUNA IS GOING TO DO IT!!!!!!!!!

ONEEEEEEEEEEEE!

(….)

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

(….)

Deadprez: TWO!!!!!!!! ARIA CRAWLS AND LEAPS TOWARD THEM JUST IN TIME TO BREAK IT UP!!!!!!

Crowd: WE WRESTLE! WE WRESTLE! WE WRESTLE! WE WRESTLE! WE WRESTLE! WE WRESTLE! WE WRESTLE! WE WRESTLE! WE WRESTLE!

(All five women are barely getting back on their feet. Everyone is completely wiped out, fighting tooth and nail for the championship opportunity in this match.)

Gavin Kirkland: Showdown is truly living up to their motto in this match because in our brand, our ring, WE WRESTLE! It looks like all five women are eventually going to get to their feet together at once! Hardcore Luna, Miku Sakai, Auburn Ware, Aria Lestrade, and Brianna Hill. They are finally back on their feet, glaring at each other-

Eve: AND ALL HELL IMMEDIATELY BREAKS LOOSE! MIKU AND ARIA ARE GOING AT IT! BRIANNA AND LUNA WHILE AUBURN IS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHO TO TARGET!

Deadprez: ARIA GOES FOR A SUPERKICK TO KNOCK MIKU OUT, BUT SHE ENDS UP GETTING HER LEG STUCK ON THE TOP ROPE… CLOTHESLINE OVER THE ROPES SENDS ARIA DOWN TO THE APRON!

Gavin Kirkland: HERE COMES AUBURN WARE, SEIZING THE OPPORTUNITY TO LOCK MIKU DOWN FROM BEHIND, SETTING HER UP FOR THE FAIRY TALE FINISHER!!!!!!!!! SHE’S SETTING UP FOR THE HALF-NELSON PUMPHANDLE DRIVER!!!!

Eve: MIKU USES ONE OF HER ARMS TO SEND AUBURN ROLLING TOWARDS ARIA… AN STEP UP ENZUIGIRI FROM THE APRON KNOCKS AUBURN BACK DOWN!

(….)

Gavin Kirkland: ARIA THROWS THE HAND IN TO BREAK IT UPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP……………………………………………………………

(……………….)

Gavin Kirkland: :lupe:

Eve: :lupe:

Deadprez: :lupe:

(In the final moment, as Aria struggles to crawl and break up the pinfall, she sees Miku Sakai looking down at her while pinning Hardcore Luna.)

Miku Sakai: (Off-Mic) Nice try, bitch.

THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(……………….)

(……………….)

(……………….)

(Aria Lestrade manages to leap forward to break the count, but she’s **__a millisecond too__** late. She ends up collapsing to the ground right after.)

(DING DING DING!)

(‘STFU!’ by Rina Sawayama hits right after the three count as Miku Sakai rolls off Luna and ends up lying exhausted right next to her. Meanwhile, Aria is lying there, feeling utterly disappointed.)

Gina Romano: HERE IS YOUR WINNER AND THE RECIPIENT OF THE NEWLY ESTABLISHED FUTURE CHAMPIONSHIP OPPORTUNITY!… MIKU SAKAI!

Gavin Kirkland: WHAT A MATCH! Midsummer Massacre is truly the marquee event you don’t want to miss, and this match is the perfect example of why Showdown is the greatest brand of all time! Auburn Ware might not have won tonight, but the real winners are the fans, especially me!!!!!!!!!!

Deadprez: All these women put in a tremendous effort fighting until the very end to earn their spot but in the end, the one with the most experience proved that her journey in this company is undeniable. That’s Miku Sakai, who now stands here with a future championship opportunity.

Eve: That’s indeed one of the fatal five-way matches that will go down in history! Everyone in this match gave it their all, regardless of their reputation! The talent they displayed in this match proves they truly deserve the prize. And here it is, Miku Sakai is your winner!

(While ‘STFU!’ by Rina Sawayama is still playing, Miku Sakai gets back to her feet, raising both arms without a smile, showing the toll of everything she just went through. She rolls out of the ring and continues celebrating. Meanwhile, Brianna Hill sits back, leaning against the corner, clearly concerned about what just occurred, pounding the ground in disappointment. Hardcore Luna continues lying there as the referee checks on her, unable to move at the moment, unconscious. Auburn Ware, who got kicked out of the ring at the last minute, sits up and glares at Miku Sakai, pointing and yelling, demanding justice, but Miku couldn’t care less and keeps mocking Auburn from the stage. Finally, Aria Lestrade is utterly disappointed. She rubs her face, and continues lying there, throwing tantrums, pounding the ground, and stomping the ring, knowing she just lost an important match yet again. The final shot shows Miku satisfied with her win as she celebrates on the stage, and Midsummer Massacre fades into a commercial break.)

(A commercial break is shown for the Paris 2024 Olympics featuring Bronson Daniels wearing a 2024 Team USA jersey and his pookie bear, Lebron James.)

( The crowd cheers in anticipation to the upcoming match before “Last Strike” by Polo G reverberates throughout the Chaifetz Arena. Jon Kelton jerks the curtains and arrives to a loud reaction, posing on the stage before making his way down to the squared circle. )

Gina Romano: INTRODUCING FIRST! From Dallas, Texas, weighing in at 218 pounds… HE IS “THE LAST HOPE,” JJJONN!! KEEEELLLLLTONNN!!!!

Stew-O: With this month marking the first full month of Season 18, that means that many elitists are walking into this season with many types of resolutions, and these resolutions are formed from what happened in the previous season… and for the two men in this match here tonight, Jon Kelton and Bronson Daniel, this season’s resolution is all about putting last season effectively in the past, rectifying those mistakes, and ultimately proving that they are better.

Eve: Jon Kelton found himself some allies for the better half of last season in the form of DEVOLUTION, and that was a group of talented elitists that went through many ups and downs, and the man he is a remnant of what DEVOLUTION was once was. However, Kelton doesn’t want to be remembered for what he did in DEVOLUTION because while he did find notable success last season with the EAW National Elite Champion, he wants to make two things clear this season. He does not need to rely on anything. That includes peers, that includes any underhanded tactics, nothing. He just needs to be good. Scratch that, great, Scratch that too, Jon Kelton wants to be the best in the world, and he understands that he can only accomplish that tethered and held down by nobody…

Gavin Kirkland: Jon Kelton had the gall to come out two weeks ago and challenge Bronson Daniels to an Iron Man match, as if he can last thirty minutes with a girl, let alone even a man! What a bold challenge by Kelton, and just because he took out Daryl Kinkade, he believes he can go toe-to-toe with a man like Bronson Daniels! Daniels has gone to war with the worst of the worst! He just went to war with Methuselah, and while he lost, Bronson has come out stronger than ever. Kelton has no idea what he is getting into that ring with, but if he wants to do this to prove that he needs nobody and he really wants to work for the crown. Then, that is something I can admire.

( Jon Kelton hops off the turnbuckle and stands in the middle of the ring to await his opponent. “My War” by Shinsei Kamattechan blasts through the speakers to an ear-deafening pop as the former World Champion emerges into view. Bronson Daniels steps out to the stage, basking in the energetic atmosphere before zeroing and locking in focus as he meets Jon Kelton inside the ring. )

Gina Romano: AND HIS OPPONENT! From Los Angeles, California, weighing in at 190 pounds… BRONNNNSONNNN DANIEELSS!!!

Gavin Kirkland: The paths that both Bronson Daniels and Jon Kelton have a striking resemblance with both wanting to turn a new page after the unfortunate events from last season. Kelton is more of a moral approach, simply wanting to do better and create a new image for people to look at him at. Bronson Daniels, however, after an incredible season of finally becoming the EAW World Heavyweight Champion and wrestling Methuselah in the grandest stage of them all, has found himself with a huge void to fill.

Eve: Bronson Daniels was wrestling in Orlando with the whole future of Dynasty resting on his shoulders, and with him finding a new home in Showdown, he no longer has to be weighed down by that pressure. However, the fact that he failed everyone in Dynasty weighs him down just as much, and he wants to prove that he is so much more. He doesn’t want to be remembered as someone that left the Dynasty to rot. And he, akin to his opponent here tonight, will do anything it takes to build himself back to the top. He will go through every obstacle, every twist and turn, and left and right, he will put his body on the line if it means getting himself back to tip-top status.

Gavin Kirkland: Let’s hope that we get Bronson Daniels back because god forbid, Methuselah makes his way over to Showdown, we’re screwed!

( Bronson Daniels and Jon Kelton exchange friendly insults while standing on opposite ends of the ring. They continue to stare off well into the bell ringing. )

( DING! DING! DING! )

( 30:00 – The crowd cheers in excitement for the match beginning as the camera pans over their staredown with the thirty minute clock initiating on the titantron in the background. )

Deadprez: The bell has rung and that could only mean that this match is underway. You can tell that Bronson Daniels and Jon Kelton couldn’t wait to get their hands on each other here at Midsummer Massacre with the way their eyes haven’t moved off each other. A match like this is what these two elitists have been looking for a long time. Daniels’ weight of being the face of Dynasty being lifted off his shoulders while Kelton tries to get back on track after his battle with Daryl Kinkade. This match is an opportunity for both of these elitists to give a stern reminder, not only to the fine people here in St Louis and at home, but to the people in the locker room exactly who they are. Bronson Daniels aims to show the world that not even a methodical anomaly like Methusalah could silence his pulse. Jon Kelton looking to turn a new page and atone for his many sins. It is clear that these two men are locked in on scratching and clawing their way to the top of the mountain, and why wait for their inevitable clash when we can really get it now.

( 29:02 – Bronson Daniels and Jon Kelton get closer to each other and briefly shake hands before engaging in a collar-and-elbow tie-up. )

Eve: Both men extending an olive branch and showing some fine sportsmanship here as they lock up here in St. Louis. It is appearing to be evenly matched up until Daniels overtakes Kelton by twisting the arm and going underneath it with a hammerlock. Kelton turns it into a headlock, causing Daniels to lead him in and rebound off the ropes. Kelton plants his foot into the ground, halting on the brakes and derailing Daniels’ plans to release the headlock. Bronson Daniels attempts to overpower and ELEVATES KELTON FOR A BACK SUPLEX …Only for Kelton to fortify the headlock and block the reversal.

Gavin Kirkland: There is no stipulation to this match and fine print. There is nothing on the line here. This is as professional wrestling as it gets. This is Showdown at its purest. Two men slanging and hauling meat in the middle of the ring all to prove who is the better wrestler. Jon Kelton understands how valuable a victory over a former EAW World Heavyweight Champion is, while conversely Bronson Daniels acknowledges the threat he poses to him should he go for gold again.

Eve: Bronson Daniels finds his way out of the headlock by maneuvering under the arm, grabs his left wrist with both hands and uses it to DRAG HIM INTO THE GROUND! Kelton uses the momentum to flip over and roll into the ground, revolving around and using his two feet to thrust Bronson Daniels to a safe distance!

Deadprez: Both men rise up to their feet at around the same time with Jon Kelton quickly bringing him down into a headlock. Bronson Daniels giving him no time and getting in the leg scissors. Kelton immediately powers out of the leg scissors with his legs. Both elitists get up to their feet and Daniels this time gets him down with a side headlock takedown. Kelton transitions into the leg-scissors. Bronson Daniels kips-up out of it. Both men trading takedowns as BRONSON DANIELS SWINGS FOR THE FENCES WITH A ROUNDHOUSE KICK!!

Eve: Jon Kelton slightly ducks underneath the kick and pushes Bronson Daniels into the ropes! Daniels rebounds with Kelton doing the same just right after! KELTON LUNGES FOR A CLOTHESLINE! Daniels goes under the arm, runs into the ropes and rebounds off! KELTON SNATCHES DANIELS! DANIELS TRAVELS INTO A TILT-A-WHIRL CROSSBODY!! KELTON GETS FLATTENED, BUT HE USES THE MOMENTUM OF THE DESCENT TO ROLL OVER AND PIN BRONSON’S SHOULDERS INTO THE GROUND!

ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Gavin Kirkland: Bronson Daniels immediately powering out of the cover! Both elitists get up to their feet and KELTON GOES FOR A SIDE HEADLOCK TAKEDOWN! Kelton blocks it, hooks the arms and tries for a backslide pin! Daniels blocks it as both men jockey for position to muscle others upper bodies to the ground! Daniels powers him over his shoulders with his arms and Kelton lands on his feet!

Eve: HOWEVER, KELTON LANDS RIGHT IN POSITION FOR SAVAGE MODE!! THE DOUBLE UNDERHOOK GUTBUSTER!!

Deadprez: JON KELTON PUSHES HIM OVER HIS SHOULDER WITH A BACK BODY DROP! Daniels lands on his feet meanwhile Jon Kelton builds speed and rebounds off the ropes!! AND KELTON DARTS TOWARDS BRONSON DANIELS FOR A SPEAR! THE FINAL ATONEMENT!!

Eve: BRONSON DANIELS HAD IT SCOUTED AND LEAPS OVER HIS SHOULDERS AND ROLLS HIM DOWN INTO A SCHOOL-BOY PIN!!

ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Gavin Kirkland: KELTON TURNS IT AROUND AND GETS THE PIN!

ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!

Deadprez: Bronson Daniels kicks out of the pin! AND HE IMMEDIATELY BEHEADS KELTON WITH THE SWINGING BACK ELBOW!! MICKEY I JUST KNOCKED YOUR HEAD OFF!!!

Gavin Kirkland: JON KELTON DROPS DOWN AND AVOIDS THE SWINGING BACK ELBOW! Daniels turns around and Kelton shoots for a flush superkick to the jaw! GALICK GUN IS BLOCKED!! Daniels holds onto his foot before he HOOK KICKS HIM IN THE GUT.. FOLLOWED BY A CHEST KICK AND THEN A BIG BACK ELBOW THAT ROCKS THE FORMER EAW NATIONAL ELITE CHAMPION! OUCH! KELTON REELS INTO THE CORNER!

Deadprez: Bronson Daniels charges into the corner of Kelton! KELTON DROPS DOWN AND LIFTS HIM UP!! DANIELS TRIES TO GET OUT OVER THE TOP ROPE, BUT KELTON SNATCHES HIS LEGS AND TRANSITIONS HIM INTO A FIREMAN’S CARRY!!

Eve: AND KELTON SWINGS DANIELS INTO THE ANTI-LIFE EQUATION!!! FIREMAN’S CARRY URANAGE!!!

Gavin Kirkland: DANIELS FLIPS BACKWARDS AND COUNTERS THE ANTI-LIFE EQUATION WITH A SENSATIONAL ARM DRAG!!!

Deadprez: Bronson Daniels gets up to his feet and PLANTS KELTON IN THE FACE WITH A PUMP KICK!! KELTON DOESN’T GO DOWN AS HE ALMOST EATS IT!! AND HE REBOUNDS OFF THE ROPES AND BLASTS DANIELS WITH A PUMP KICK OF HIS OWN–

Eve: THE KICK CONNECTED! BUT DANIELS IMMEDIATELY KIPPED UP OFF THE GROUND!!! CATCHING KELTON OFF GUARD AND NAILING HIM IN THE SIDE OF THE HEAD WITH AN ENZIGURI!! AND THIS CAUSES KELTON TO LOSE HIS BALANCE AND SPILL THROUGH THE ROPES AND ONTO THE RINGSIDE FLOOR!

Deadprez: JON KELTON JUMPS BACK ONTO THE APRON!! BUT HE IMMEDIATELY EATS A DROPKICK TO THE FACE THAT SENDS HIM SPIRALING ONTO THE RINGSIDE FLOOR!!

Gavin Kirkland: AND THIS IS THE RAPID-FIRE OFFENSE THAT JON KELTON NEEDED TO AVOID HERE.. AS DANIELS IS GETTING THE VOICES IN HIS HEAD AS HE BEGINS TO RUN THE ROPES.. HE CARTWHEELS OVER AND BACKFLIPS OVER THE TOP ROPE!!! AND DESCENDS ONTO KELTON WITH A SEXY CORKSCREW TOPE CON HILO!!!!

( 27:00 – After a success Cartwheel Corkscrew Tope Con Hilo, Bronson Daniels soaks in the roar of the crowd before getting Jon Kelton back into the ring and jumping onto the apron in anticipation for a springboard move. )

T-

Gavin Kirkland: Jon Kelton with a creative counter there as now looks to slow down the pace of this match with an arm bar. Not sure if this is wise with the clock counting down at 26:25, but Bronson Daniels is trying not to waste time here as he fights out of the arm bar! Bronson Daniels with punches to the midsection! BUT KELTON REELS HIM IN AND SLAMS HIM DOWN WITH A SUPLEX! AND HE FLOATS OVER FOR THE LATERAL PRESS!

ONE!!!!

Eve: Quick kickout! And Daniels is right back into the thick of it as Kelton administers a chin lock in the middle of the ring! It is clear what Kelton is trying to do here which is test the patience of Daniels, but we all know how much mettle and fortitude resides within the former World Champion. Kelton continues to apply the chin lock, but with resistance here as Daniels begins to struggle out of it!

Gavin Kirkland: AND DANIELS DROPS KELTON DOWN WITH A JAWBREAKE—

Deadprez: KELTON LETS GO AT THE LAST SECOND!! AND KICKS DANIELS RIGHT IN THE FACE! AND HE PUTS HIM RIGHT BACK INTO THE CHIN LOCK!!

Eve: Daniels went for the traditional route of getting out of the chin-lock with a jawbreaker, but Kelton saw it coming, released the chin-lock at the last second, leaving Daniels to drop down onto his knee for nothing but to receive a huge kick to the face! Daniels back in the chin-lock here, but he is back to defense as he muscles up to his feet!

Gavin Kirkland: WHAT THE!! KELTON CAUGHT DANIELS IN MID-AIR!! AND SPIKED HIM DOWN WITH A MODIFIED SIDEWALK SLAM!! WHAT A COUNTER!!

Deadprez: Kelton isn’t electing for the pin here as he seems to be aggravated by the persistence of Bronson Daniels. He rolls away, underneath the bottom rope and is looking to get froggy… Bronson Daniels is back up to his feet, favouring his lower back while KELTON LEAPS OFF THE TOP ROPE!!!

Gavin Kirkland: AND KELTON CONNECTS WITH THE SPRINGBOARD CLOTHESLIN–

Eve: BRONSON DANIELS GRABS HIS INCOMING ARM IN MID-AIR!! USES IT FLOAT OVER THE UPPER BODY OF JON KELTON!! AND HOOKS BOTH ARMS FOR THE SAVAGE MODE!! SAVAGE MODE!!

Eve: BRONSON DANIELS CAN’T BELIEVE IT! HE WAS ON THE CUSP OF ACQUIRING A FALL, BUT THE HIGH RING AWARENESS OF THE CHOSEN ONE TOLD HIM TO ROLL OUT OF THE RING AND TAKE THE PROSPECT OF THAT OUT OF THE EQUATION!!

Deadprez: DANIELS ROLLS UNDERNEATH THE BOTTOM ROPE AND PUTS ALL OF HIS REMAINING POWER INTO BRINGING ALL OF THE DEADWEIGHT BACK INTO THE RING!

Gavin Kirkland: Bronson Daniels isn’t electing for the pin here as he sees there is still life left in Jon Kelton! He looks to the top turnbuckle and he has thought of a way to completely SAP KELTON OF ALL THAT ENERGY!! AND HE NOW ASCENDS TO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE!! THIS IS NOT LOOKING GOOD FOR KELTON!!

Deadprez: KELTON IS STILL RECOVERING FROM THAT MICKEY ELBOW!! AND NOW HE IS ABOUT TO DEAL WITH THIS!!

Eve: THE LEAP OF FAITH SPIRAL TAP!!!!!

( 1:35 – Bronson Daniels lands the “Leap of Faith” Spiral Tap onto Jon Kelton. )

Gavin Kirkland: LESS THAN A MINUTE AND A HALF IN THIS MATCH AS KELTON NOTICES IT AND URGENTLY CLIMBS TO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE! WHAT IS HE THINKING HERE?!!

Eve: BE CAREFUL GUYS!! BRONSON DANIELS JUST GOT HIS JINGLE BELLED ON THE TOP ROPE AS KELTON HAS HIM ON HIS SHOULDERS!! HE’S GOT DANIELS IN THE FIREMAN’S CARRY!!

Deadprez: THAT IS IT!!

Eve: NO!! KELTON WENT HEAD-FIRST OFF THE TOP TURNBUCKLE AS DANIELS MANAGED TO TURN IT INTO A DDT!! AN AVALANCE DDT CONNECTS!!

Deadprez: WHAT A COUNTER!! KELTON SWUNG HIM FROM THE FIREMAN’S CARRY ON THE TOP TURNBUCKLE INTO THE URANAGE!! BUT BRONSON DANIELS SOMEHOW SNATCHED HIS HEAD AND REVERSED IT INTO A SPIKE DDT!! I DON’T EVEN THINK BRONSON DANIELS KNOWS HIMSELF WHAT HE JUST DID!

Eve: AND WE ARE ALMOST AT THIRTY SECONDS HERE AS DANIELS HAS REGAINED CONCIOUSNESS!! MEANWHILE, JON KELTON IS LAID OUT IN A PRONE POSITION AND HAS YET TO MOVE!! DANIELS GINGERLY USES THE ROPES TO GET UP TO HIS FEET AND HE CLIMBS BACK TO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE!!

( 0:20 )

Gavin Kirkland: KELTON REMAINS AWOL! AND NOW DANIELS SLOWLY, BUT SURELY ASCENDS TO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE!! HE IS TRYING HIS BEST TO DO IT AS FAST AS HE CAN! BUT THESE TWO MEN HAVE PUT EACH OTHER THROUGH A PHYSICAL MATCH, WHERE IT HURTS EVERYTIME HE MOVES ANYTHING IN HIS BODY!

( 0:12 )

Deadprez: BRONSON DANIELS IS FINALLY PERCHED ON THE TOP TURNBUCKLE!! AND HE HITS THE SPIRAL TAP!!!

Deadprez: BRONSON DANIELS LANDS ONTO THE KNEES OF JON KELTON!! HOW IN THE HELL DOES KELTON STILL HAVE IT IN HIM!!!

( DING! DING! DING! )

Deadprez: DID BRONSON DANIELS GET THE FALL IN TIME?!?!?! WHAT IS THE REFEREE SAYING?!?!

Gavin Kirkland: IS THIS A TIE! OR DID DANIELS GET THE FALL!!

Gina Romano: ……………. …. ..

( 0:00 – Jon Kelton: 2 | Bronson Daniels: 3 )

Gina Romano: HERE IS YOUR WINNNNERRR!! BRONSON DANIELS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

( “My War” by Shinsei Kamattechan blasts through the speakers as Bronson Daniels smiles in relief. He gingerly gets up to his feet and gets his hand raised. )

Deadprez: In a grit-your-teeth style match, both of these men arrived at St. Louis with only one goal in mind; to be the better professional wrestler. We had the pleasure of seeing these two simply wrestle and duke it out, and it would be an equally fought match up until the finish!

Eve: The end of Iron-Man matches are always contested by who can thrive under pressure… Who can make minimum mistakes… Who can take advantage of these mistakes… However, it would be Bronson Daniels who would show that he just had a little bit more of HEART! A little bit more of SOUL! A little bit more of PASSION! And where it seemed like Jon Kelton was on the precipice of a match-winning Final Atonement spear, Bronson Daniels reached deep into his heart to hit the Swinging Back Elbow to win him this match.

( Bronson Daniels notices Jon Kelton resting in the corner and offers his hand. )

Deadprez: Both of these men agreed to this match knowing that this would be an opportunity to show the entire world, to remind them of the level of an elitist that they are… but they both walked into this knowing that it would be a friendly competition. Two wrestlers simply wrestle for the love of the game. And Daniels, the class-act that he is, offering his hand in time for Kelton as a sign of respect!

( Jon Kelton momentarily looks at the hand with gloom, until he finally takes the hand and Daniels helps him up to his feet. They both shake hands, with Daniels whispering some words into his ear before he leaves the ring. Kelton smirks and rests against the ropes as Daniels makes his way up the ramp. )

Eve: Take nothing away from Kelton because he just showed tonight that he can indeed hang with anybody, and that includes one of the top wrestling stars here today in Bronson Daniels

Gavin Kirkland: Bronson Daniels takes one step closer to the mountaintop, while it isn’t that big of a step, slow motion is better than no motion. Now for Kelton? He’s got no motion at all! LMAO!!! What a match and congratulations to Bronson Daniels!

( The last shot is Bronson Daniels celebrating on the ramp while Jon Kelton contemplates against the ropes. )

(It slowly fades to ads of Reckless Wiring and Blood Sport.)

(“Her” by Megan Thee Stallion starts to play throughout the arena as Kennedy Street, the Showdown General Manager walks out, she is flanked by both her bodyguard, AJAX and her assistant General Manager and former tag team partner, and best friend, Alana Starr. The crowd gives a mixed reaction to the gorgeous General Manager and her beautiful assistant. The music dies down as Kennedy stands on the entranceway.)

Kennedy Street: HELLO ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI!

(The fans react with cheers.)

Kennedy Street: Kennie hopes that you have ALL enjoyed the Midsummer Massacre so far!

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

Kennedy Street: That’s what Kennie wants to hear! Now, before we get to the last two matches of the night, Kennie would like to talk about what is next for Showdown. First and foremost, we do have Territorial Invasion next and Kennie is going to make you all a promise, honey, that Showdown WILL WIN IT THIS YEAR!

(The fans cheer as Alana Starr claps.)

Kennedy Street: This is going to be a huge se4ason for us, honey. Showdown has always been the Land of Opportunity and WE WRESTLE, but this is the year where we are looking to do so much more. I look at this roster and I have nothing but faith in it, we are looking at some of the top Elitists in the company AND some of the biggest future stars in the EAW. We are continuing to raise the bar here, and are ready to raise the bar.

Alana Starr: Kennie knows how to raise the bar! Are we going to discuss the whole Jake Smith thing?

(Kennedy looks confused)

Kennedy Street: Alana… he’s the EAW World Champion on Voltage right now, but Kennie bets he loses the title in three weeks, then we can talk.

Alana Starr: Oh good… and… wait, we are in front of this entire arena, sorry Kennie, this was supposed to be a private conversation.

Kennedy Street: You need ice honey.

Alana Starr: You are so smart.

Kennedy Street: Thank you honey. There are so many huge things on the horizon for the Blue Brand honey and the BEST is still yet to come. This brand has some of the most incredible Elitists in the EAW, they have all been in action here tonight. And just because there were winners and losers, this is a LONG season ahead of us and Kennie sees some future champions on the horizon! But we here are transparent with our fans.

Alana Starr: So…. November 2nd, live from THE MECCA of Professional Wrestling…. MADISON SQUARE GARDEN! We will see THE LAST STAND…. And the Main Event will be the TEMPLE OF TRIALS MATCH!

(The crowd erupts in cheers, remembering the brutality of the last one.)

Deadprez: HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT! THE TEMPLE OF TRIALS MATCH RETURNS AT THE LAST STAND FROM THE GREATEST ARENA OF ALL TIME, MADISON SQUARE GARDEN!

Gavin Kirkland: THAT IS GOING TO BE AMAZING AND HISTORIC!

Eve: WHAT A TREAT FOR TH –

(Eve though is interrupted with “True Love” by CFO$ as Kennedy just shakes her head and Alana Starr turns to see the Unified Tag Team Champion walk out, the hosts of Midsummer Massacre.)

Eve: OH, FOR FUCKS SAKE!

Gavin Kirkland: LANGUAGE!

Eve: We are not with Disney anymore! THESE TWO HAVE BEEN RUNNING AMUCK ALL NIGHT AND DOING WHATEVER THEY PLEASE RUNNING THE SHOW DOWN AND I AM SICK OF IT!

(Kennedy folds her arms as Kassidy and Sienna walk out, their4 music cuts and the two stand across from the General Manager and the Assistant General Manager. Kennedy holds AJAX back.)

Kassidy Heart: Yes, you better hold that ogre back, because you are the one that was forced into giving us airtime since you couldn’t book us in a match. We are not happy about it, because see, we are the two best wrestlers on this damn roster and there isn’t a single person that can say otherwise, not even you.

Sienna Jade: And… Kennie. While we really don’t think much about you other than both of you used to be wrestlers out in the swamps and pretty good ones, and let’s not lie, you two are eye candy, but not like us, we are willing to give you a pass for screwing up the booking. Anyway, we are still hosting if I recall, we appreciate your contribution to the show, but we need you two to clear the stage and let us take the center stage, now.

(Kennedy Street smirks, she then looks up at the two ladies and nods.)

Alana Starr: Uh…. we are not done, okay?

(Kassidy smiles and then PUSHES ALANA STARR TOO THE FLOOR LANDING ASS FIRST! The crowd boos.)

Alana Starr: THAT WAS NOT NECESSARY, I AM WEARING WHITE AND THE DIRT SHOWS OFF MY THONG!?

Gavin Kirkland: :eyes:

(AJAX picks her up as Alana is about to charge but Kenedy stops her.)

Kennedy Street: Not here.

(Kennedy then turns to the Jaded Hearts.)

Kennedy Street: You know what honey, you are right! The greatest Tag Team of all time is hosting, so please, take it away and talk about the remainder of the show. Come on Alana.

(But as the two ladies in charge are about to leave, Alana stops Kennedy while rubbing her but.)

Alana Starr: That cute camera guy in the left side of the ramp keeps looking at me, can we stay a little longer, I am single you know and feel like I have not had se-

Kennedy Street: AHEM! You need to stop right now. Let these two play. Kennie will take you bar hopping or something after the show.

(Alana shrugs her shoulders as they both walk out, but Kennedy stops and looks back at the Jaded Hearts.)

Kennedy Street: Oh and by the way…. Kennie is going to find a match for you to defend the Unified Tag Team titles.

(Kennedy smiles and walks out, Kassidy and Sienna shake their heads before they both giggle as they turn back to the fans.)

Kassidy Heart: Okay, now that they are done with all of that, this show has really sucked so far except for us, we are the bright shining lights.

Sienna Jade: We are and since this will be the last two matches of the night, we wanted to give you something that you all would remember forever. So… we are here to say that this Marquee Event would have been nothing without us! So as we continue to host –

(Suddenly the mic cuts off. Sienna starts tapping it and no sound is coming out of it. Kassidy then tries to do the same and her mic doesn;t work, the fans start to cheer that they don’t need to hear them anymore as the Jaded Hearts lok annoyed.)

Deadprez: It looks like our General Manager had their mics cut off! Well, I guess this is it for the Jaded Hearts tonight, hey thanks for hosting ladies!

Eve: :mjlol2:

Gavin Kikrland: What the hell!? That is now rude!

Eve: Well… they got what they deserved, no lie.

Gavin Kirkland: BLASPHEMOUS!

Deadprez: Let’s get this mess cleared up, we will be right back after a few words from Jake’s Smith’s new Self-Help Book… How to Kill Your Wife and Get Away With It!

(The scene fades while both Kassidy and Sienna are annoyed at their mics not working, switching to a paid advertisement.)

(The graphic for the next match appears.)

https://i.ibb.co/HXGXF8M/Millivs-Harper-UWC.png

(‘Sweet Dreams’ by Eurythmics begins to blare through the speakers in the Chaifetz Arena as Harper Lee strolls out from the back. The crowd boos, almost like it’s in complete command as Harper rolls her eyes, clearly unamused by the entire thing. She does her little pose before walking down the ramp.)

Gina Romano: THE FOLLOWING MATCH IS SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL!!!!!!!

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

Gina Romano: AND, IT’S FOR THE EAW UNIVERSAL WOMEN’S CHAMPIONSHIP!!!!! INTRODUCING FIRST…THE CHALLENGER…FROM CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA…SHE IS ‘THE STAR PLAYER’…HARPER LEE!!!!!!!

Gavin Kirkland: Harper Lee made a statement a couple weeks ago on Showdown, where she would interfere in the main event where Milli Banks teamed up with Bronson Daniels to face the Cash in the Vault briefcase holder Donovan Duke and the Answers World Champion, TLA! It would lead to Kennedy Street making this match for Midsummer Massacre!

Eve: Harper Lee claims that she could have gotten a title shot whenever she wanted too. She did what she did the week before to keep Milli Banks on her toes. Harper has never been the one to take the predictable route with these things and that’s what makes her so dangerous. She’s a former Universal Women’s Champion. Someone who has been in these types of match ups before.

Deadprez: Harper Lee has one goal and that’s to “expose” Milli Banks. She wants to show everyone that Milli is not ready to be Universal Women’s Champion. She is not ready for what the title entails for her to do, but this match should be a wonderful test to see if Milli is more than ready for what this championship needs for her to do.

(‘Changed It’ by Nicki Minaj featuring Lil Wayne replaces ‘Sweet Dreams’ as Milli Banks comes out from the back, oozing confidence as she does her little dance. She takes the Universal Women’s Championship from her waist as she raises it high in the air before making her way down the ramp, taking her shit to Harper on the way down.)

Gina Romano: INTRODUCING HER OPPONENT…FROM BROOKLYN, NEW YORK…SHE IS THE CURRENT EAW UNIVERSAL WOMEN’S CHAMPION… ‘THE SUPERNOVA’…MILLI BANKS!!!!!!!!

Gavin Kirkland: OH MY GOOOOOOOOD, I CHANGED IIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTT!!!!! :singing:

Eve: Oh god, he’s still singing. :francis:

Deadprez: Milli Banks won the Universal Women’s Championship at Pain for Pride in a triple threat against Hikari Kanno and former champion Minerva! It was a spectacular match between these three! Something that I LOVED being at ringside for! This will be title defense number one for Milli as she looks to take down Harper Lee!

Gavin Kirkland: There’s some talk in the back from those that believe that Milli Banks is not ready to be a World Champion. Milli Banks is not ready for what this championship is going to require for her to do. But, she’s a former Specialists Champion. Someone who almost broke the record set by Brody Sparks and Andrea Valentine. Someone who gave Minerva her first loss at the Pain for Pride stage. I know, she has what it takes to carry that standard!

Eve: Harper Lee thinks that she’s going in the match to take advantage of someone who hasn’t been wrestling for as long. Someone who really might be naive when it comes to being a World Champion, but competing and competition is what Milli has been used too all her sports career. It’s not uncharted territory for her.

Deadprez: This is going to be a good one. Both of them are around the same height. Both of them will be able to execute the same move that they won’t with competitors bigger and stronger than then. I think this could be a fantastic match up!

(DING! DING! DING!)

Gavin Kirkland: MILLI BANKS. HARPER LEE. UNIVERSAL WOMEN’S CHAMPIONSHIP ON THE LINE!

Eve: The two women are circling around inside the ring, looking for the right opening to go for a lock up —THEY LOCK UP! The two of them are trying to back the other to the ropes! It seems like Milli Banks is winning this match as she manages to back Harper Lee! Harper is doing everything she can to push Milli back, but Harper finds herself back to the ropes —

Deadprez: Harper Lee ducks her head through the ropes and demands for the referee to separate her from Milli Banks! Harper is doing the “time out” gesture with her hands as the referee backs Milli away from Harper! Milli doesn’t look clearly amused by the situation! She knows what Harper’s games are all about and she’s not going to allow for herself to get wrapped in them!

Gavin Kirkland: After a moment or two, we see Harper Lee getting her head back inside the ring! She has herself in a lock up stance as she waits for Milli Banks to lock up with her! Milli does so with no hesitation, but Harper manages to go around the waist of Milli! Harper is right behind Milli as she looks to lift her up with a German suplex, but Milli manages to keep her feet planted on the ground! Milli connects with a back elbow shot to the face of Harper! Harper releases whatever grasp that she has of Milli’s waist! MILLI GRABS HARPER BY ONE OF HER ARMS BEFORE PULLING HER WITH A SHORT-ARMED CLOTHESLINE! HARPER TRIES TO GET HER ARM AWAY FROM MILLI, BUT MILLI YANKS HER UP AND CONNECTS WITH ANOTHER SHORT-ARMED CLOTHESLINE! HARPER CAN FEEL HER ARM GETTING SORE AS SHE TRIES TO PULL HER ARM AWAY FROM MILLI!

Eve: But, it seems like Milli Banks is not completely done as she manages to yank Harper Lee back to her feet and connect with a third consecutive short-armed clothesline! This takes Harper down once more! Milli begins to stalk Harper up to her feet as Harper goes right after her, but Milli connects with a hip toss as she flips Harper forward! But, Milli has possession of that same arm that she was yanking Harper up with! Milli grabs Harper up and connects with an arm drag that sends Harper sliding across the ring! Harper gets herself to her feet, BUT MILLI IS NOT LOOKING TO WASTE ANY TIME AS SHE CONNECTS WITH A METEORA TO HARPER AT THE CORNER! HARPER COLLAPSES TO A SEATED POSITION ON THE SECOND TURNBUCKLE! MILLI BEGINS TO CONNECT WITH SOME MUDHOLE STOMPS TO THE RIBS BEFORE APPLYING A HIGH LEG EXTENDED CORNER FOOT CHOKE ON HARPER!

Referee: (off-mic) ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE!

Deadprez: Milli Banks gets that leg back to the ground before grabbing Harper Lee by one of her arms and whipping her to the corner diagonally from them! Harper goes to that corner, but manages to back flip herself out of that corner! Milli thought that she would be able to get to Harper at that corner, but stopped herself before she could collide with that turnbuckle! Harper stands right behind Milli as Harper throws her to the turnbuckle at the corner! Harper rolls up Milli as she looks to end this match as soon as possible!

OOOOOOONNNNNNNEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!

TTTTTTWW—

Gavin Kirkland: Milli Banks kicks out! Harper Lee manages to still get Milli in position as she looks to lift up the Universal Women’s Champion up for a powerbomb! But, Milli is trying to fight her way out of the situation! She is trying to get herself down! But, Harper begins to throw some stiff punches to the face of the champion! This allows for Harper to pick up Milli in a powerbomb position before throwing her to the turnbuckle! A turnbuckle powerbomb as the champion goes down at the corner! Harper begins to stomp on the body of the champion before placing her foot on the face of Milli! Clearly, showing no sign of respect!

Referee: (off-mic) ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE!

Eve: Harper Lee knows that she can’t get herself disqualified! She wants nothing more than to walk out of Midsummer Massacre as the Universal Women’s Champion! She is going to need to play a careful game and avoid having the referee see her in situations that could get her disqualified! Harper picks up Milli by her chin before throwing her back to the corner! Harper goes for the double knees to Milli’s face before taking her forward with a monkey flip! BUT, THE CHAMPION MANAGES TO LAND ON HER FEET! I THINK THAT MAY HAVE SURPRISED HARPER THERE! SHE TRIES TO GET HERSELF TO HER FEET! BUT, MILLI CONNECTS WITH A SUPERKICK AS THAT TAKES HARPER BACK TO THE ROPES! THEN, WE SEE MILLI CONNECTING WITH A JUMPING STO AS SHE MANAGES TO TAKE HARPER DOWN! MILLI GOES FOR THE COVER!

OOOOOOONNNNNNNEEEEEEE!!!!!!

TTTTTWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

Deadprez: Harper Lee with a kick out! Milli Banks picks her up before getting her into a fireman’s carry position on her shoulders! Milli connects with a rolling fireman’s carry before following that up with a second rope moonsault as Milli lands right on Harper’s ribs! Milli goes for another cover!

OOOOOOONNNNNNNEEEEEEEE!!!!!!

TTTTTWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Gavin Kirkland: Harper Lee with a kick out! Milli Banks picks up Harper by the back of her head before lifting her up and connecting with a front suplex! But, Milli drops Harper on the first horizontal rope as Harper is teetering up and down like a seesaw! Milli manages to get herself on the top turnbuckle as Harper might find herself in a situation that she may not be able to get herself out of! Milli flies from the turnbuckle and connects with a knee drop to Harper on the first rope! Harper flips onto her back as Milli picks up Harper and connects with a knee to the gut of ‘The Star Player!’ MILLI GOES BACK TO THE ROPES BEFORE REBOUNDING OFF THEM AND CONNECTING WITH A SOMERSAULT NECK BREAKER! HARPER GOES DOWN, BUT MILLI FINDS HER WAY BACK TO HER FEET! SHE BEGINS TO STALK HARPER TO HER FEET BEFORE RUNNING TOWARDS HER AND CONNECTING WITH ANOTHER SOMERSAULT NECKBREAKER! HARPER GOES DOWN ONCE MORE BEFORE MILLI STALKS HARPER TO HER FEET BEFORE CONNECTING WITH A THIRD SOMERSAULT NECK BREAKER!

Eve: Milli Banks begins to get to her feet as she’s gesturing for Harper Lee to rise back to her feet! Milli pulls Harper into a front headlock before lifting her up with a vertical suplex, but Harper manages to drop behind Milli! I don’t think that Milli saw that coming as Harper manages to get Milli by her neck and connect with a neck breaker! Milli is clutching the back of her neck as Harper gets to her knees! SHE TAKES A MOMENT TO RECOVER AS SHE GRABS MILLI WITH A FISTFUL OF HER HAIR! HARPER SLAMS MILLI FACE-FIRST AGAINST THE MAT! YOU CAN SEE MILLI CLUTCHING TO HER FACE AS HARPER GRABS MILLI BY THE BACK OF HER HEAD AND PROCEEDS TO SLAM HER FACE OVER AND OVER AGAIN! HARPER IS GOING COMPLETELY BALLISTIC AS SHE THROWS MILLI BACK!

Deadprez: Harper Lee slowly rises to her feet as grabs Milli Banks by her hair and pulls her closer before connecting with an elbow to the back of Milli’s neck! Harper connects with another sharp elbow to the spine of the champion as that takes Milli to one knee! Harper connects with a spike DDT as Milli lands on the top of her head before flipping g to her back! Harper gets on top of Milli before throwing a series of punches to the face of the champion! Then, Harper takes Milli by the back of her head once more and takes her to the middle rope! We see that Harper is applying a rope choke to ‘The Supernova!’ Harper is screaming at Milli and trash-talking to her as she continues to choke Milli!

Referee: (off-mic) ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE! LET GO, HARPER!

Gavin Kirkland: Harper Lee jumps off of Milli Banks! Her hands are where the referee can see them! Milli tries to find herself to her feet by grabbing onto the top horizontal rope! But, mid way, Harper goes right after Milli and connects with a knee strike to the side of her temple! This takes the Universal Women’s Champion back down! Harper manages to get Milli’s head on the middle rope before running towards Milli and going for the tiger feint kick as that takes the champion back! Harper jumps on the top rope before spring boarding herself off of it and connecting with a forearm as that takes Milli back once again! Harper goes for the cover!

OOOOOOONNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!

TTTTTTWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Eve: Kick out by Milli Banks! Harper Lee is remaining calm for the moment being as Harper gets Milli’s arms from behind! Harper stretches the arms of ‘The Supernova’ back as she has her feet on the spine of Milli! AND…WE’RE SEEING HARPER LEE APPLY A SURFBOARD STRETCH ON THE CHAMPION! MILLI IS IN A BIT OF TROUBLE AS HARPER SEEMS TO BE HOPING THAT SHE’LL MANAGE TO GET HERSELF OUT OF THIS SITUATION! MILLI BEGINS TO CRY OUT IN PAIN AS YOU CAN HEAR THAT HARPER IS TELLING MILLI TO GIVE UP AND THROW IN THE TOWEL! STILL, YOU CAN SEE THE CHAMPION SHAKING HER HEAD NO! SHE IS NOT GOING TO ALLOW FOR THE TITLE TO SLIP AWAY FROM HER! THE TITLE THAT SHE WORKED SO HARD IN GETTING INTO HER CLUTCHES!

Deadprez: Harper Lee begins to gently bring Milli Banks to the ground! Still, she is stretching the arms of the champion back! The referee asks Milli if she wants to submit here, but Milli is shaking her head no! Still, we see that Harper is demanding for the referee to keep asking Milli if she wants to throw in the towel! The referee does that as Milli is shaking her head even more! This seems to be annoying Harper! Harper releases Milli’s arms before kicking her in the spine as Milli falls face first on the mat!

Gavin Kirkland: Harper Lee finds herself to her feet as she manages to stand above Milli Banks! Harper grabs Milli by her waist before lifting her up and connecting with a deadlift German suplex as she takes the champion back! Milli tried to land on her feet, but she collapsed to her knees and went back! She wasn’t able to keep her balance there! Harper follows that up by connecting with a basement dropkick can that sends Milli to her back! Then, we see Harper get Milli by her legs as she places her head underneath the bottom rope! What is Harper looking to do here? :lupe:

Eve: Catapult by Harper Lee! Milli Banks’ face collides underneath that bottom rope! Harper still has a grasp of Milli’s legs as it seems like we might be seeing Harper go for a submission move here! I think that we’re going to be seeing Harper apply a single-leg Boston crab on the champion! But, Milli sees what Harper is looking to do and knows that she needs to get herself out of this mess! She begins to twist and turn herself out of the grasp of her challenger! Harper begins to stomp on the ribs of Milli! This causes her to stop as Harper manages to turn Milli around and connect with that single-leg Boston crab! Milli begins to cry out in pain as she tries to reach for that bottom rope! That’s her best bet at the moment!

Deadprez: Harper Lee begins to laugh as she looks down at Milli Banks who is looking to grab onto the bottom rope! But, Harper manages to get herself up and lift Milli away from the ropes! No! Milli manages to use that opening to roll herself through the legs of ‘The Star Player!’ YOU CAN SEE THE CHALLENGER BEGINNING TO FREAK OUT A BIT AS MILLI MANAGES TO TAKE HARPER DOWN AS SHE COUNTERS WITH A ROLL UP OF HER OWN! IS MILLI GOING TO STAY HERE?!?!

OOOOOOONNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!

TTTTTWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

Gavin Kirkland: NO! HARPER LEE MANAGES TO SEND HERSELF FORWARD, SO THAT SHE SITS ON TWO OF MILLI BANKS, COUNTERING WITH A ROLL UP OVER HER OWN!

OOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!!!!!!!

TTTTTTTWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Eve: No! Milli Banks manages to get herself up as it looks like she’s going to counter with her own roll up again! No! She has Harper Lee by her midsection as she is being held upside down! Harper is freaking out as she realizes that she might be in a position that she won’t be able to get herself out of! Milli lifts up her challenger and proceeds to slam her down with a powerbomb! This gets Harper away from her! Milli gets Harper before rolling her back as Harper finds her way to her knees! Milli charges forward and takes Harper back with a penalty kick to the face! It seems like the wheels in Milli’s head are beginning to turn as she lifts up Harper and places her horizontally on the middle rope at the corner!

Deadprez: Milli Banks connects with a jumping double knee drop to the body of Harper Lee as that takes her down! Now, we see Milli getting herself on the top turnbuckle as she looks down on the unconscious body of her challenger! Milli from the top rope — FROG SPLASH ON HARPER LEE! BUT, MILLI IS CLUTCHING TO HER STOMACH IN PAIN AS WE LOOK AT HARPER LEE AND SOMEHOW, SHE WAS ABLE TO GET HER KNEES UP JUST IN TIME FOR THAT FROG SPLASH!

Gavin Kirkland: Harper Lee is all about waiting for the right opportunity to strike! It’s what makes her dangerous in these types of matches! She will string you along before it’s time to strike! Still, we see that Harper is still affected by the jumping double knee drop! These two women find themselves down as it seems like Milli is still finding the strength to rise to her feet! She clutches her ribs with one of the arms as she looks to get Harper with her other hand! She proceeds to get Harper in a front headlock before taking her down with a ‘Comet Crusher’ — her variation of the fisherman’s neck breaker! Milli goes for another cover attempt!

OOOOOOONNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!

TTTTTTWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Eve: Harper Lee kicks out! Milli Banks gets Harper up by her hair and connects with a calf kick that causes her to bend forward, clutching her stomach! Milli goes back to the ropes, rebounds off of them as she throws herself at Harper and connects with a wheelbarrow DDT! Harper goes down, but Milli knows that she needs to keep it going! She waits for Harper to get herself up just a bit before running towards her and connecting with a running facebuster as that takes ‘The Star Player’ down once more! Still, Harper tries to find her way back to her feet, but Milli manages to take her down with a gorgeous dropkick! Harper gets back up, but Milli connects with another dropkick as that makes it take Harper back to the ropes!

Deadprez: Milli Banks goes right after Harper Lee as she looks to clothesline her out of the ring! BUT, HARPER, USING HER STRENGTH, MANAGES TO LIFT UP THE CHAMPION AND THROW HER OUT OF THE RING! BUT, MILLI MANAGES TO LAND ON THE APRON! HARPER GOES FOR A FOREARM IN HOPES TO KNOCK MILLI OFF THE APRON, BUT MILLI MANAGES TO CATCH HARPER BY THE FIRST! HARPER BEGINS TO SHAKE HER HEAD NO! SHE REALIZES THAT SHE MAY HAVE GOTTEN HERSELF IN A SITUATION THAT SHE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO GET HERSELF OUT OF! MILLI CONNECTS WITH A PELE KICK AS THAT SENDS HARPER BACK! MILLI GOES TO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE AS SHE LOOKS TO GO HIGH RISK —

Gavin Kirkland: BUT, HARPER LEE JUMPS ONTO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE! SHE MEETS MILLI BANKS ON TOP OF THERE! MILLI THROWS A PUNCH IN HOPES TO KNOCK HARPER OFF! BUT, HARPER RETURNS THE FAVOR BY THROWING A PUNCH TO THE UNIVERSAL WOMEN’S CHAMPION! MILLI THROWS A PUNCH TO HARPER! HARPER THROWS A PUNCH TO MILLI! MILLI! HARPER! MILLI! HARPER! MILLI! HARPER! THE TWO WOMEN ARE THROWING PUNCHES AT ONE ANOTHER! MILLI GOES FOR A HEADBUTT TO HER CHALLENGER! THIS MANAGES TO CAUSE HARPER TO STUMBLE BACK! BUT, HARPER MANAGES TO REBALANCE HERSELF ON THE TOP ROPE AS MILLI CONNECTS WITH ANOTHER HEADBUTT! HARPER STUMBLES BACK, BUT SHE DELIVERS A PUNCH TO THE STOMACH OF MILLI! AND ANOTHER ONE! AND ANOTHER ONE!

Eve: HARPER LEE WITH A FRANKENSTEINER FROM THE TOP ROPE! MILLI BANKS GOES FLYING OFF THE TURNBUCKLE! I think that Harper Lee might have her opening here! She sees that Milli is getting to her feet as Harper runs right after her and connects with a spinning backfist as that takes the champion back! Harper gets Milli and connects with an olympic slam that she likes to call ‘Ragnarok!’ Milli is wobbly on her feet as Harper looks for a clothesline, but Milli does a matrix evasion causing Harper to completely speed past her! Milli grabs Harper from underneath her chin and connects with a snapmare! Milli charges forward as she looks for a penalty kick —

Deadprez: But, Harper Lee must have eyes in the back of her head as she sensed what Milli Banks was going to go for next! She ducks as Milli speeds right past her! Harper manages to sweep the feet of the champion causing Milli to drop face first! Now, we see Harper looking to apply a muta lock on the champion! She has the bridge as she fully applies the move! Milli finds herself in quite some trouble! Milli is trying to rip the hands away from her chin! Harper is shaking her head no! She cannot allow for herself to be stuck in this move! But, Harper’s grasp is too strong!

Gavin Kirkland: It seems like Milli Banks has no other choice, but to try to crawl for that bottom rope across from her! She seems to be headed there as Milli is literally trying to dig her nails against the mat! She pulls herself closer and closer to the rope as Harper Lee could feel her grasp slipping away from her! Harper can sense the trouble that she is in as she is shaking her head no, but…MILLI MANAGES TO GET HER HAND ON THE BOTTOM ROPE! THIS FORCES FOR THE REFEREE TO BEGIN HIS COUNT!

Referee: (off-mic) ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE! LET GO, HARPER!

Eve: Harper Lee has no other choice, but to release the submission hold! The referee manages to separate Harper from Milli Banks! Harper is pacing back-and-forth, waiting for Milli to rise back to her feet! When it seems like Milli is partially back to her feet, Harper charges right at her and nails her with a dropkick! The force of the dropkick was enough to send the Universal Women’s Champion through the middle rope and out of the ring! Harper is hyping herself up as the crowd is not anticipating what Harper is going to do next! Harper sends herself through the middle rope and connects with a suicide dive into a tornado DDT! The champion is taken down! The challenger is up to her feet! Can we get a replay of that spot??

(REPLAY: A slow motion of Harper Lee nailing a suicide dive into a tornado DDT. The clip begins to go at normal pace when the tornado DDT is hit.)

(It pans back to ringside where Harper Lee has her arms out in the open. She is feeling more than confident as the crowd obviously hates it. She goes to a little girl in a crowd with a “MILLI BANKS” poster before snatching the poster from her and ripping it up to pieces and stomping on it. The booing of the crowd gets louder as the little girl begins to trash talk to her.)

Crowd: FUCK YOU, HARPER! 👏👏👏👏👏 FUCK YOU, HARPER! 👏👏👏👏👏 FUCK YOU, HARPER! 👏👏👏👏👏 FUCK YOU, HARPER! 👏👏👏👏👏 FUCK YOU, HARPER! 👏👏👏👏👏 FUCK YOU, HARPER! 👏👏👏👏👏

Deadprez: The crowd telling Harper Lee how they feel about her! Harper is trying to block the negativity of the crowd as she focuses on getting Milli Banks up to her feet! Harper has Milli by the arm as she throws her body to the barricade! Milli crashes down in response as she charges right after the champion and connects with a sliding forearm to the face of Milli! This knocks Milli down as Harper begins to stomp on the body of the champion! At the same time, we see Harper trash talking the crowd! Harper is completely mocking this crowd!

Gavin Kirkland: She picks up Milli Banks and stands her up straight before sending herself forward and connects with a knife-edge chop to the chest! This causes Milli to clutch her chest in pain, but Harper connects with another knife-edge chop to the chest! Milli clutches to her chest again! Harper is telling the crowd to shush, but it just causes the crowd to boo her even more!

Eve: They aren’t even giving her that courtesy! Harper Lee just rolls her eyes and connects with the loudest knife-edge chop that I have ever heard! This causes Milli Banks to collapse down! But, Harper manages to get her back to her feet before placing her on the apron! Then, she looks at the crowd!

Harper Lee: (off-mic) YOU ARE ALL RUDE BY THE WAY!

Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

Harper Lee: (off-mic) Remind me to never come back here. :francis:

Deadprez: Harper Lee manages to get onto the apron where Milli Banks is at! Harper gets Milli up to her feet as she gets her in a powerbomb position! BUT, IT SEEMS LIKE THERE IS STILL A FIGHT WITHIN THE CHAMPION AS SHE MANAGES TO SEPARATE HERSELF FROM HER CHALLENGER! MILLI SENDS HERSELF FORWARD WITH A FOREARM SMASH, BUT HARPER MANAGES TO DUCK AS SHE MANAGES TO LIFT UP MILLI AND CONNECT WITH A URANAGE AS SHE SENDS MILLI CRASHING ONTO THE APRON! This causes Milli to contort her back in pain! Harper rolls Milli back inside the ring before heading for the top turnbuckle! She sees that Milli is down as positions herself on the top turnbuckle! Her eyes are on ‘The Supernova’ as she is finding the strength to rise back to her feet! Harper, from the top rope, lands a dropkick as she takes Milli down once more! Harper goes for the cover!

OOOOOOONNNNNNNEEEEEEE!!!!!!!

TTTTTTWWWWWWWOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

Gavin Kirkland: Milli Banks with a kick out! Harper Lee gets to her feet once more as she picks up Milli and takes her down with a pendulum backbreaker! Harper goes back to the ropes as she stalks Milli up to her feet before charging towards her with a headscssors take down! Milli goes around like a top before Harper nails her with a ‘Dragon Fist’ — the right hook take the champion down! Harper goes for the cover!

OOOOOOONNNNNNNEEEEEEE!!!!!!

TTTTTTWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

TT—

Eve: Milli Banks kicks out! Harper Lee looks down at the Universal Women’s Champion and knows that she is going to need to put an end to Milli’s reign as champion! Harper finds herself to her knees as she slowly begins to back away to the corner diagonally from where Milli is slowly regaining consciousness and rising back to her feet! Harper is more than anxious to hit this move as she charges right after Milli — ‘Lonely Star!’ The busaiku knee strike to Milli Banks!

Deadprez: BUT, MILLI BANKS MANAGES TO DUCK THE MOVE! HARPER LEE SPEEDS PAST HER, UNABLE TO STOP HERSELF! MILLI MANAGES TO JUMP ONTO THE SHOULDERS OF HARPER BEFORE TAKING HER DOWN WITH A POISONRANA! Harper is loopy as she is trying to find herself back to her feet, but Milli runs right after her and connects with a tilt-a-whirl arm drag! Harper is sent sliding across the ring as Milli goes right after her challenger and dropkicks Harper to the corner!

Gavin Kirkland: Milli Banks begins to connect with some stomps to the gut of Harper Lee! She picks up Harper before sitting her up on the top turnbuckle! She looks to get herself up on the top turnbuckle as well, but Harper manages to kick her away from the time being! Still, we see that Milli is looking to meet Harper up there! But, Harper tries to get herself on the top turnbuckle as fast as she can! She tries to position herself on top as she can see that the Universal Women’s Champion is looking to meet ‘The Star Player’ up there! Milli jumps up to meet Harper! BUT, HARPER MANAGES TO GET MILLI IN A FRONT HEADLOCK AS SHE CONNECTS WITH A FRONT SUPLEX AS SHE THROWS HER OFF THE TOP ROPE! MILLI GOES CRASHING DOWN ON HER STOMACH! THAT HAS TO HURT, EVE AND DP!

Eve: Harper Lee situates herself on the top turnbuckle before jumping off of it and connecting with a moonsault on Milli Banks! Harper connects with a moonsault as she looks down at Milli! Harper knows that she needs to put an end to ‘The Supernova’ or Milli might find a way to put an end to her! Harper gets Milli up to her feet before standing behind her — ‘House of Balloons’ — her vibration of the backstabber as that takes the champion down! Now, Harper is going back to that corner once more! She is going for ‘Lonely Star’ once more in hopes that this might secure her the Universal Women’s Champion! She is waiting for Milli to rise to her feet before —

Deadprez: ‘LONELY STAR’ TO MILLI BANKS! BUT, MILLI MANAGES TO DODGE THE KNEE STRIKE! SHE MANAGES TO GET RIGHT BEHIND HER CHALLENGER AND CONNECT WITH A BACKSTABBER! HARPER LEE GOES DOWN AS MILLI FOLLOWS THAT UP WITH A SPRINGBOARD BACKFLIP INTO AN INVERTED DDT! MILLI LIKES TO CALL THAT ‘FORECLOSURE!’ Milli is hyping herself up as she waits for Harper to show some signs of life before she rises back to her feet — back handspring roundhouse kick as that takes the challenger back! Milli goes right after Harper before connecting with a spiked hurricanrana driver as Harper’s face eats the mat!

Gavin Kirkland: Milli Banks turns Harper Lee around as she goes for a pin on the challenger!

Eve: BUT, HARPER LEE MANAGES TO SLAM MILLI BANKS’ FACE AGAINST THE MAT! HARPER NOW GETS ON ONE OF MILLI’S SIDES AS IT SEEMS LIKE HARPER IS LOOKING TO APPLY HER GO-TO SUBMISSION MOVE! ‘JOURNEY’S END’ IS A CHICKENING OVER-THE-SHOULDER CROSSFACE! Milli is moving her entire body back-and-forth, realizing that if Harper locks in this move, it could be the end of her Universal Women’s Championship reign! Milli is not ready to let go of that title! Harper can’t even lock her arms together as Milli has Harper’s right arm as she looks to wrench it back! Harper is shaking her head no, she realizes that Milli might be a bit too strong at this moment! She hasn’t worn down the champion enough to slip in this submission move!

Deadprez: Milli Banks looks to roll Harper Lee back to her shoulders, but Harper realizes what Milli was looking to do and gets herself out of the way! She creates a bit of distance between her and Milli! Harper connects with a forearm smash to the face of the Universal Women’s Champion! BUT, MILLI CHARGES TOWARDS HER AND TAKES HER BACK WITH ‘NO FAKE BILLS HERE’ — THE RUNNING SINGLE LEG HIGH KNEE AS THAT TAKES THE CHALLENGER TO HER OWN KNEE! MILLI PULLS HARPER INTO A BACK-TO-BACK POSITION AS SHE LOOKS TO GO FOR THE ‘MONEY MAKER!’ THE GORY SPECIAL THAT GETS SPUN INTO A DDT! BUT, HARPER DROPS TO HER SIDE AS SHE MANAGES TO CATCH MILLI WITH A ‘DRAGON FIST’ AS THAT TAKES HER OWN! HARPER GOES BACK AS — ‘LONELY STAR!’

Gavin Kirkland: FINALLY, HARPER LEE NAILS MILLI BANKS WITH THE BUSAIKU KNEE STRIKE THAT SHE TRIED TO HIT ON TWO OTHER OCCASIONS! MILLI GOES DOWN AS HARPER QUICKLY GOES FOR THE COVER! THIS MIGHT BE A THREE COUNT HERE, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!

OOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

TTTTTTWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

TTTTTTTHHHHHHHHHRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEE—

EVE: MILLI BANKS GETS A SHOULDER UP! HARPER LEE CANNOT BELIEVE IT!

Deadprez: Harper Lee is beside herself! She is trying to confirm that it was really a two count! The poor girl is just hoping that it was a three count! The referee holds two fingers, confirming that it was a two count as Harper just can’t believe! Harper clutches her hair in frustration before rising back to her feet! She begins to go back to the corner again, but this time, she pulls down her right knee pad, exposing her knee! She wants to make sure that the next ‘Lonely Star’ she connects with, it’s more brutal than the last move! She wants nothing more than for this to secure her the title!

Gavin Kirkland: Harper Lee waits for Milli Banks to rise to her feet! The Universal Women’s Champion is up to her feet as she turns herself around! Harper charges at Milli Banks with ‘Lonely Star’ once more! NO! MILLI MANAGES TO TAKE HARPER DOWN WITH A SLINGBLADE! THE TWO WOMEN GO DOWN AS THEY HAVE THROWN SOME AMAZING MOVES AT EACH OTHER! WHICH ONE OF THEM IS GOING TO MAKE IT BACK TO THEIR FEET NEXT??

Eve: Both the champion and challenge are slowly rising to their feet as Milli Banks goes right after her with a knee strike to Harper Lee’s gut! Then, she gets Harper into position before taking her back with a straightjacket suplex! But, Harper manages to get one of her arms out of position! She grabs Milli by one of her arms before wrist pulling her and connecting with a lariat, BUT MILLI DUCKS THE LARIAT! HARPER GOES FORWARD AS MILLI CONNECTS WITH A SUPERKICK TO THE BACK OF HARPER’S HEAD! THIS CAUSES THE CHALLENGER TO STAGGER FORWARD INTO THE ROPES! MILLI CONNECTS WITH A DROPKICK TO THE SPINE OF THE CHAMPION AS THE UPPER HALF OF HARPER’S BODY GOES THROUGH THE MIDDLE ROPE! HER LEGS ARE STILL INSIDE THE RING AS MILLI GRABS ONE OF HARPER’S LEGS AND CONNECTS WITH A DRAGON SCREW LEG WHIP AS THAT TAKES HER FULLY BACK INSIDE!

Deadprez: Milli Banks finds herself back up as she’s gesturing for Harper Lee to get herself back up! Harper is a bit loopy as Milli goes right after her, connecting with a tilt-a-whirl headscissors! No! Harper manages to use Milli’s momentum to her advantage as she connects with a facebuster as she takes the champion down! I don’t think that Milli had anticipated that whatsoever! But, Harper manages to get each leg on each side of Milli! She has Milli’s arms pulled back as she has her foot on the spine of ‘The Supernova!’ If you know Harper Lee, you know exactly what she’s planning to do next!

Gavin Kirkland: ‘SLEEPING ON THE FLOOR’ AS HARPER LEE HAS A SHIT EATING GRIN ON HER FACE AS SHE LIFTS UP MILLI BANKS IN A SURFBOARD POSITION BEFORE SLAMMING HER DOWN TO THE CANVAS! I THINK THAT WAS ENOUGH TO KNOCK MILLI OUT AS HARPER GOES FOR THE COVER ON MILLI! IS THIS WHAT’S GOING TO BE ENOUGH TO MAKE HER A TWO-TIME UNIVERSAL WOMEN’S CHAMPION?

OOOOOOONNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!

TTTTTTWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

TTTTTTHHHHHHHRRRRREEEEEEEEEE—

Eve: Milli Banks with a hand on the bottom rope! The referee points that to Harper Lee! Harper can’t seem to believe it, but she should have taken Milli and pinned her away from the ropes! Harper is shaking her head and muttering to herself as she begins to slap each side of Milli’s face! Harper is beginning to be a bit irritated, but what did she expect when going up against someone like Milli Banks?

Deadprez: Harper Lee anticipated for things to go another way! But, Milli Banks is not going to let the title slip from her on a first title defense! As champion, Milli knows that she is going to need to step up. Everyone wants a shot at her. Everyone wants to take her down. That’s a ton of pressure on a young woman and Harper Lee is a first test in all of that for her. Harper begins to pick up Milli by her hair and gets her in a powerbomb position! We are seeing a bit of power moves from the challenger! She knows that she is going to need to bring out these bigger moves to take down Milli! HARPER LIFTS UP MILLI WITH A POWERBOMB! MILLI IS CONNECTING WITH LEFT AND RIGHT PUNCHES TO THE TOP OF HARPER’S HEAD! HARPER SEEMS TO BE OVERWHELMED BY THEM AS MILLI ESCAPES THE POWERBOMB POSITION! SHE STANDS RIGHT BEHIND HARPER AS MILLI MANAGES TO TAKE HARPER DOWN WITH A BACKSTABBER! BUT, MILLI IS NOT DONE HERE! SHE WAITS FOR HARPER TO START SCRAMBLING UP TO HER FEET AS SHE CONNECTS WITH THE SOMERSAULT DOUBLE KNEE FACE BREAKER THAT SHE LIKES TO CALL ‘NEW BODY!’

Gavin Kirkland: THE MOVE CONNECTS AS MILLI BANKS HOOKS THE LEG ON HARPER LEE! IS THIS GOING TO BE ENOUGH TO RETAIN THE CHAMPIONSHIP HERE??!?!

OOOOOOONNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!

TTTTTTTWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

TTTTTTTTHHHHHHHRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEE—

Eve: HARPER LEE KICKS OUT! Milli Banks seems to be a bit surprised there, but Harper Lee has been in this position before! Harper Lee knows how it feels to stand on top as World Champion! She knows exactly what she needs to do to become champion again! It’s not just Milli that has brought her entire game into this match, but Harper as well! Milli shakes her head and you can tell that she’s not amused by the situation, but she moves forward! She begins to go back as she’s demanding for Harper to get herself back to her feet! She seems more than anxious to hit this next move! Harper rises up even more as Milli runs right after ‘The Star Player’ — back handspring roundhouse kick takes back Harper! Milli runs to the ropes, springboards herself off of them and connects with a moonsault! But, Harper manages to pick up Milli by one of her shoulders! Slowly, it seems like Harper is rising up to her feet as she has Milli on her shoulder!

Deadprez: But, Milli Banks slides off Harper Lee’s shoulder as she pushes her to the ropes! Milli goes for an O’Connor roll on Harper! BUT, HARPER MANAGES TO ROLL UP MILLI INSTEAD! HARPER HAS HER TIGHTS! SHE HAS MILLI BY THE TIGHTS AS SHE LOOKS TO ESCAPE WITH THE UNIVERSAL WOMEN’S CHAMPIONSHIP IN HER POSSESSION!

OOOOOOONNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!

TTTTTTWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

TTTTTHHHHHHRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEE!—

Gavin Kirkland: Milli Banks manages to get herself out of the roll up! Harper Lee tried to take the easier way out of this match and it backfired on her part! I know that must have pissed off Milli! She was not going to allow for her title reign to end like that!

(Milli Banks is staring down at Harper Lee. Both of these women are clearly exhausted, but continue to fight on for the sake of calling themselves World Champion. Both are breathing hardly as Milli cannot believe that Harper would try to pull some bullshit like that. The two women are circling around, looking for an opening to resume this match.)

Eve: Harper Lee knows exactly the level of competitor that she’s in the ring with. She needed something that was going to shift the match into her favor! She goes right after Milli Banks as she looks to take her down with a meteora— BUT MILLI MANAGES TO LIFT UP HARPER AND CONNECT WITH A SHARP UPPERCUT AS THE CHALLENGER IS TAKEN DOWN INSTANTLY!

Milli Banks: (off-mic) YOU ARE NOT HER!

Deadprez: MILLI BANKS TAKES HARPER LEE BACK WITH A ‘GALAXY IMPACT’ — HOLLY ARROW’S DOUBLE KNEE FACE BREAKER. THE SECOND HALF OF POTARA, HARPER LEE’S FORMER TAG TEAM PARTNER! THE WOMAN THAT HARPER DEFEATED AT PAIN FOR PRIDE, BUT HARPER IS FINDING SOME WAY TO RISE TO HER FEET! SHE CLUTCHES ONTO THE ROPES AS SHE LOOKS FOR MORE SMOKE FROM THE UNIVERSAL WOMEN’S CHAMPION, BUT MILLI ISN’T DONE HERE!

Milli Banks: (off-mic) YOU ARE NOT HER!

Gavin Kirkland: ‘SEROTONIN’ — THE ROLLING ELBOW FROM SIERRA BRADFORD, HARPER LEE’S FORMER TAG TEAM PARTNER IN THE REALM! HARPER IS KNOCKED DOWN TO THE FLOOR AS SHE CAN’T BELIEVE THE FORCE OF THESE MOVES THAT SHE’S BEING HIT WITH! MILLI BANKS IS GIVING HARPER A DOSE OF THE MEDICINE THAT MOST PEOPLE THINK THAT SHE’S BEEN MEANING TO HAVE FOR AGES! STILL, I DON’T THINK THAT MILLI BANKS IS DONE HERE! SHE’S GOING FOR THE TOP TURNBUCKLE AS SHE HAS HER BACK TURNED TOWARDS HARPER —

Milli Banks: (off-mic) ***YOU ARE NOT HER!***

Eve: ‘HAPPY ENDING?’ I HAVE NOT SEEN THAT VARIATION OF THE MOONSAULT IN QUITE SOME TIME, GAV AND DP! SINCE WE’RE IN THIS PATTERN OF HARPER LEE’S FORMER TAG TEAM PARTNERS, IT MUST MEAN THAT THIS LAST MOVE IS FROM SARAH PRICE! THE LEADER OF THE REALM. THE STABLE THAT HARPER LEE BEGAN WITH ALONG WITH SIERRA BRADFORD!

Gavin Kirkland: SARAH, YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO BE THE CHOSEN ONE! :noah:

Deadprez: Still, I don’t think that Milli Banks is done here, Gav and Eve! Milli could toil with Harper all night if she wanted too, but she wants nothing more than to end this match! I think that Milli is going to make sure that Harper stays down and out for good! She finds herself on that top turnbuckle as she looks to go high risk once more! ALL FOR THE SAKE OF MAKING SURE THAT SHE RETAINS HER UNIVERSAL WOMEN’S CHAMPIONSHIP! MILLI GOES OFF THE TOP ROPE WITH ‘MILLI-ON-AIR’ — THE CORKSCREW SHOOTING STAR PRESS ONTO A DOWNED HARPER LEE!

Gavin Kirkland: HARPER LEE GETS HER KNEES UP AS MILLI BANKS CRASHES AND BURNS DOWN TO THE CANVAS! MILLI WAS GETTING A BIT TOO COCKY HERE AND HARPER MANAGED TO BRING HER DOWN BACK TO EARTH! Harper rises to her feet as she gets Milli by her hair! Then, she takes the champion to the corner as she takes Milli up on the top rope! Harper sits Milli on the top rope! Milli is turned back to the challenger and I have no idea what Harper is looking to do next, but I know that this can’t be good! We see that Harper is connecting with a series of punches to the spine of Milli, hoping to weaken her! Now, we see Harper looking to get up on the top turnbuckle! I think that we might be seeing a reverserana from the challenger!

Eve: BUT, MILLI BANKS CONNECTS WITH AN ELBOW TO THE GUT OF HARPER LEE! MILLI CONNECTS WITH ANOTHER ELBOW TO THE GUT OF ‘THE STAR PLAYER’ AS MILLI MANAGES TO HOLD HARPER FROM UNDERNEATH HER CHIN! WHAT IS MILLI LOOKING TO DO NOW???

Deadprez: MILLI BANKS LIFTS HERSELF UP BEFORE — ‘BANKRUPT!’ ‘BANKRUPT’ FROM THE TOP ROPE AS MILLI FLIPS HERSELF AROUND AND SLAMS HARPER ON THE MAT! MILLI’S VARIATION OF THE STANDING SITOUT SHIRANUI TAKES DOWN HARPER LEE! MILLI HOOKS THE LEG! IS THIS GOING TO BE ENOUGH TO RETAIN THE UNIVERSAL WOMEN’S CHAMPIONSHIP?!?!?!?!

OOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!

TTTTTWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

TTTTTTTHHHHHHHRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!

(DING! DING! DING!)

(‘Changed It’ plays once more as Milli Banks rolls off of Harper Lee. Milli resets on her back as the referee hands her the Universal Women’s Championship. Milli clutches it to her chest as she soaks in the moment. She finds her way to a seated position as the referee raises her hand, solidifying her as the winner of the match.)

Gina Romano: THE WINNER OF THIS MATCH AND ***STILL*** EAW UNIVERSAL WOMEN’S CHAMPION… MILLI BANKS!!!!!!!!

Gavin Kirkland: And just like that, Milli Banks retains the Universal Women’s Championship. Nothing more than an impressive championship match here! Milli went into this match and continued to push herself to the next level. She continued to push herself when Harper Lee was looking for any way to push her down.

Eve: Harper Lee threw what she had to offer at Milli Banks. Harper came into this match wanting to expose Milli Banks as a one-hit wonder of sorts, but Milli got plenty of hits to throw at everyone. This match was another example of that!

(The referee is helping Harper Lee roll out of the ring. Clearly, Harper is annoyed and unamused by Milli Banks retaining the Universal Women’s Championship. She looks at Milli who is beginning to find her way back to her feet as Milli raises the title high above her head, letting Harper get a good look at her. Harper rolls her eyes as she allows for the referee to help her up the ramp.)

Deadprez: Minus all of the shortcuts/mind games that Harper Lee tried to take throughout this match, she did put up a wonderful effort. That deserves credit there, at least.

Gavin Kirkland: A positive way to look at it, but another way to look at it is that we get to look at Milli Banks with championship gold for much longer! Congratulations to Milli Banks on a successful first defense with many coming her way!

(The last shot is of Milli Banks celebrating inside the ring, doing her little dance inside the ring as she raises the title once more before fading elsewhere.)

(The final match card for the night is shown off.)

(https://i.ibb.co/qn10LBD/TLAvs-Charlie-AWC.png)

(Gina Romano stands in the ring.)

Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is a STEEL CAGE match, and it is for the EAW Answers World Championship!

Crowd: :blessed:

(Gina leaves the ring, and that’s when the harrowing steel cage structure begins to descend. It soon surrounds the ring. Referees are around it.)

(Soon, ‘It Ain’t Safe’ by Skepta hits. The fans immediately boo. Charlie Marr comes walking out, acclimated to the hate he constantly receives. However, it doesn’t waver his determination as he makes his way to the ring.)

Gina Romano: Introducing first, the challenger! From Tower Hamlets, London, United Kingdom, weighing in at 240 pounds, he is the ‘Colossus’, CHAAAARRRRRRLIIIIIEEEEEE MAAAAAAARRRRRRRR!!!

Deadprez: It’s officially main event time, guys! And it’s safe to say that everyone has been looking forward to this match. The history is there, the hatred is there, and everything else in between! But of course, TLA and definitely Charlie Marr don’t care to put on some kind of all-time classic. They’re ready for war, and for Charlie, he’s looking to do everything possible to become a world champion once more in his career.

Gavin Kirkland: It certainly would be an accomplishment for him to be a three-time world champion, and to ultimately rebound quickly after his Pain for Pride loss to Jake Smith last month. He may not have ended his season seventeen on top, but he showed the world that he is still very much dangerous and a threat to be taken seriously.

Eve: That he has, and tonight could cement everything for him if he’s able to edge out against TLA.

(Charlie gets in the ring, bringing his attention to the stage. Then, ‘Ambitionz as a Ridah’ by Tupac plays, causing the fans to cheer loudly. TLA comes out in his lowrider, with the Poon Palace crew accompanying him. He parks the vehicle, and gives Steroid Dawg some pats on the head before he steps out. He flashes the Answers World Championship and gets up on the ramp before striding down to the ring.)

Gina Romano: And the champion! Residing in The Poon Palace in Miami, Florida, weighing in at 210 pounds, he is La Pantera Sexual, and the current EAW Answers World Champion… T! L! A!

Deadprez: It ain’t gonna take a rocket scientist to know who these fans want to see win, especially when that person just captured the championship last month at Pain for Pride. Now, TLA is having his first defense of the title, against an old foe no less, and he’s looking to win no matter what.

Gavin Kirkland: And you can see there is no love lost between him and Charlie. They’re pretty much staring daggers into one another! However, TLA is ready to go, and seeing as how Charlie thwarted his attempts at becoming the EAW World Champion last season when they were both on Voltage, he’s looking to gain a bit of redemption and show Charlie Marr that he isnt going to beat him this time around!

Eve: The main event has been hotly anticipated for a plethora of reasons, and soon, it’s going to start. TLA and Charlie Marr, it doesn’t get any bigger than this!

(TLA is in the ring. He hands the title off to the referee that’s on the inside with him and Charlie, raising it up high before he hands it off to the other referee on the outside. The officials on the outside lock the steel cage’s door. Anticipation builds up as TLA and Charlie look at each other. Then, the bell rings.)

(DING DING DING!)

Deadprez: The match starts, and TLA AND CHARLIE MARR ARE NOT WASTING ANY TIME HERE AS THEY BOTH RUSH AT EACH OTHER AND BEGIN TO FIRE AWAY, STRIKING ONE ANOTHER WITH A BARRAGE OF FOREARMS TO THE FACE! WOW! AND THE FANS ARE GOING CRAZY! THEY’RE NOT MESSING AROUND WHATSOEVER!

Eve: GIVEN THEIR YEARS-LONG RIVALRY, IT SHOULD COME AS NO SURPRISE! THERE’S NO LOVE LOST HERE AS BOTH THE CHAMPION AND CHALLENGER ARE GOING AROUND THE RING, BRAWLING IT OUT! THIS WAS BOUND TO GET VIOLENT SOONER OR LATER!

Gavin Kirkland: It certainly is spicy from the get-go! Charlie and TLA continue to duke it out — until Charlie decides to switch things up by kicking the champion straight in the gut! That catches him by surprise! TLA is hunched over and Charlie takes the opportunity to clobber him over the back with a stiff forearm! He roughs him up by grabbing him by the head, and now, he looks to send his face crashing into one of the steel cage’s walls! Oh, this is going to be nasty!

Deadprez: But TLA has the wherewithal to block the attempt, using his hands to grab the wall and stop Charlie from shoving his face into it! Charlie’s eyes go slightly wide, and he becomes frustrated, looking to try and smash his face into it again! However, TLA blocks it once more! Charlie lets go and looks to go for a boot to the face, but TLA is able to side step! The Answers World Champion quickly grabs him by the wrist and whips him into the ropes! Charlie comes back on the rebound AND TLA LEAPS UP, CATCHING HIM WITH THE THESZ PRESS! TLA GOES TO TOWN PUNCHING AWAY AT HIM!

Eve: TLA isn’t holding a single thing back as he remains on the offensive, battering Charlie right in the face! The challenger brings his arms up to block as many of those punches as possible, but some of them are still getting through! Charlie is able to shove TLA away and scrambles up to his feet—

Gavin Kirkland: CLOTHESLINE, COURTESY OF THE BADDEST HOMBRE ON THE PLANET! CHARLIE GOES DOWN AND GOES ROLLING TOWARDS THE CORNER, TRYING TO GATHER HIMSELF! HE USES THE ROPES TO HELP PUSH HIMSELF BACK UP TO HIS FEET—

Deadprez: BUT HE GETS FLATTENED WITH A LIGHTNING-FAST SET OF DOUBLE KNEES TO THE CHEST! DAMN! CHARLIE LOOKS AS THOUGH THE WIND HAS BEEN KNOCKED OUT OF HIM FROM THAT! TLA IS GETTING THE MOMENTUM ROLLING HERE IN THE OPENING MOMENTS OF THIS MATCH!

Eve: We started off fast and furious, and the champion is edging out here as he is quickly gathering the advantage for himself! Charlie tries his best to recover, but TLA closes the distance and begins to stomp away at him! He’s just relentless!

Gavin Kirkland: I don’t think this is going to be the kind of match where we’re gonna see some flashy lucha-lucha from our hermano TLA! He’s just looking to kick some ass, and so far, he’s able to do that! He takes his boot and smothers Charlie with it, roughing up his face! And some might say with Charlie’s tendency to be downright nasty and ruthless, that he’s getting an exact taste of his own medicine!

Deadprez: Yeah, no kidding. TLA eventually lets go, and Charlie crawls away from the corner, clearly a bit frazzled by the offensive onslaught he was on the receiving end of! Charlie once again goes near the ropes, using them to help stabilize himself. However, TLA is on the prowl, and he is far from done with him! The defending champion makes his way back over to the challenger — OH! AND CHARLIE IS ACTUALLY ABLE TO TRIP TLA UP, SENDING HIM CRASHING THROAT-FIRST INTO THE MIDDLE ROPE! :damn:

Eve: Wow! Just like that, Charlie Marr is able to get a breather. Meanwhile, TLA is struggling to do that himself as she rolls around on the mat in clear pain! The fans begin to boo as Charlie is able to work his way back up to his feet, and he walks over and stomps down on TLA repeatedly! He’s indiscriminate with his targeting as he’s just attacking any and all parts of him right now!

Gavin Kirkland: And he sure is being aggressive with his attacks! He’s doing all that he can to quickly snuff out any fight from TLA as he looks to become the new Answers World Champion!

Deadprez: Charlie even goes far as to press his foot against TLA’s throat, looking to add more insult to injury as he has the champion flailing! And given the nature of this match, he can do whatever he pleases! TLA struggles as he tries to push his foot off of him, but Charlie is relentless, and he snarls down at him, refusing to back down! He’s practically choking him at this rate!

Eve: TLA is starting to get a little red in the face. However, Charlie steps off of him – only to go ahead and mount him! He grabs TLA by the hair and brings his forearm crashing down into his face! More and more shots are fired as Charlie continues to attack TLA! This is just nasty!

Gavin Kirkland: Well, that’s Charlie Marr for you. He’s as ruthless as he is cunning, and right now, TLA is being reminded of that as the challenger is pretty much having his way with him!

Deadprez: Charlie stops and gets up, and TLA quickly rolls away so that he himself can recover. However, Charlie gets him up and shoves him into the corner, attacking him with punches to the body! TLA tries to cover up, but that only gets Charlie to focus on striking him in the face! TLA is having a hard time defending himself as anytime he tries to protect a different body part, Marr focuses on a different one!

Eve: Yeah, things are starting to devolve fast for the champion. Charlie unleashes a sharp knee to the gut that pretty much has TLA weakened! Charlie takes a few steps back and charges forward, driving his shoulder into him! TLA is in trouble now as Charlie grabs his wrist and musters all of his strength, sending TLA running towards the opposite corner!

Gavin Kirkland: But wait! TLA is able to stop himself from crashing into it! Charlie sees this and looks absolutely annoyed! He runs forward, but TLA catches him with a back elbow! Charlie stumbles backwards from the unsuspecting hit! He shakes his head and storms forward, but TLA hops up on the top rope and comes springing off of it, catching him with the crossbody! What a smooth reversal by the champion as he’s able to catch Charlie off guard with that!

Deadprez: TLA rolls away and comes back up, shaking off some of the cobwebs. However, Charlie works his way up as well! Marr sees the champion and immediately lunges at him! TLA leapfrogs over him and rolls forward! Guess we are getting some of that fine lucha after all as the champion is using his speed and athleticism to avoid Charlie!

Eve: He certainly is! Charlie spins around and looks for a big boot, but TLA ducks underneath it! He slips behind him and grabs him around the waist and rolls both himself and Charlie backwards, LIFTING HIM UP FOR AN O’CONNOR GERMAN SUPLEX!

Gavin Kirkland: But Charlie strikes him with a back elbow of his own, putting an end to that attempt! I think he may have gotten TLA in the eye as well as he staggers back, holding onto the right one! And Charlie sees this! He rushes forward and takes him down with a running lariat, flooring him!

Eve: OR would’ve, if TLA didn’t have the wherewithal to fall back and kip up! Wow! Charlie turns around, completely dumbfounded, but he looks for another attempt to attack him as he runs forward—

Deadprez: But TLA catches him with a dropkick! Charlie scrambles up, but TLA takes him down with an arm drag, completely flipping him onto his back! Charlie stumbles up, and TLA grabs him by the head! He runs forward, AND SHOVES CHARLIE FACE FIRST INTO THE STEEL CAGE! AND THE FANS GO CRAZY AS CHARLIE FALLS DOWN, FAVORING HIS FACE!

Gavin Kirkland: Well, Charlie certainly is in a pickle now, is he? He was trying to do that earlier, and that ended up backfiring on him! He rolls over onto this knees, looking to get back up – SHINING WIZARD TO THE FACE! TLA QUICKLY COVERS HIM!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE—

Eve: But Charlie is able to get the shoulder raised! However, TLA is far from dejected. He mounts Charlie and attacks with a flurry of punches, with the crowd eating it up!

Deadprez: He’s definitely keeping the pressure hot here! Charlie hardly has any answers in this moment! TLA continues to attack him right in the face before he gets up and unleashes one hell of a stomp! Charlie writhes around, but TLA gets him up and SLAMS him down with a snap suplex!

Gavin Kirkland: TLA isn’t playing any games! The champion heads to the corner and begins to make his ascent, looking to go big for a huge reward! TLA is up on the top of the turnbuckle with his back facing Marr.

Eve: Oh, but hang on, Charlie is starting to stir, and he looks to see where TLA is at! He gets up and quickly scurries towards him, catching TLA with a forearm to the back! That gets him to stop in his tracks! Charlie attacks with more forearms, alternating between the right and left one as he continues to strike TLA, doing everything he can to halt the champion!

Deadprez: And it seems to be working! Charlie begins to climb up now, looking to add more damage! He could be ready to send TLA crashing down to the mat himself!

Gavin Kirkland: That would be absolutely disastrous for the Answers World Champion! Charlie catches up and wraps his arms around him, looking to send him down with an avalanche back suplex!

Eve: But TLA throws some elbows back towards Marr, looking to stop him in his own right! Charlie tries to lift him up, but more of those elbows are connecting, and it’s becoming increasingly difficult for him to do that! Charlie’s grasp on TLA weakens! Meanwhile, TLA reaches back and grabs onto his head! What is he thinking of doing here?!

Deadprez: Something big, that’s what, Eve! TLA uses the CAGE WALLS TO PLANT HIS FEET ON THEM BEFORE HE FALLS BACK WITH CHARLIE!

Gavin Kirkland: OH MY GOD! WAS THAT LIKE AN AVALANCHE SHIRANUI WE JUST SAW?!!

Eve: IT WAS! TLA JUST EXECUTED IT, LAYING CHARLIE MARR OUT! HE ROLLS OVER AND THROWS HIS SHOULDER OVER HIM, GETTING A COVER AFTER SUCH AN IMPACTFUL MOVE!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO—

Deadprez: But Charlie kicks out! This match is far from over, folks!

Gavin Kirkland: Wow! Charlie is able to persist despite taking such a nuts move! Still, he can barely move after being on the receiving end of that! That more than likely took a lot out of him!

Eve: It did. You can see the pain enveloping on him as he winces, trying to roll onto his side. Meanwhile, TLA works his way up, slow in his own right, but he’s able to come to his feet and stand. Seeing Charlie, the champion grabs him and forces him up. He takes Charlie and SLAMS his face against one of the steel cage’s walls, not holding a single thing back! However, he catches Charlie before he can fall and drags him towards the right side of the ring, where he proceeds to slam his face AGAIN! Charlie looks absolutely rocked at this point, but there’s not letting up from TLA’s side as he takes him to another part of the ring and does the same thing! Charlie Marr is just getting messed up here!

Deadprez: He is! TLA takes him all around the world, and he’s gonna bring him to a crash landing as he goes to the last side and slams his face into the steel! Marr is light on his feet, dropping down to a knee! TLA works his way behind him and grabs him by the head, lifting him up! He plants him down with an inversed suplex! TLA hooks to leg, going for another pinfall attempt!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO—

Gavin Kirkland: Another two count! TLA has been able to do some serious damage, but not enough to the point where Charlie is staying down for the count! TLA realizes this, and looks like the gears are turning in his head, because he’s starting to get a move on! He takes hold of Charlie and leads him back up to his feet, looking to set something else up.

Eve: But Charlie isn’t completely out as he answers with a sudden punch to the gut! TLA flinches! Charlie fires off with another one, and TLA takes a step back! Charlie hits him with a punch! He goes for another strike, but TLA is able to telegraph it! Now, he wraps his arm around Charlie’s head and runs forward with him, possibly going for a bulldog—

Deadprez: No! Charlie lifts him up and THROWS HIM FORWARD!

(***CRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASH!!!***)

Gavin Kirkland: TLA GOES CRASHING INTO THE STEEL CAGE!!!

Eve: OH, NO! THIS IS NOT GOOD! TLA COMPLETELY CRUMBLES DOWN ONTO THE MAT FROM THAT! HE ROLLS AROUND IN AGONY AS HE FAVORS HIS BACK! THAT WAS A HARSH COLLISION!

Deadprez: It certainly was! The champion is in trouble now, but the break allows Charlie to recover as he looks to work his way back to a dominant position in this match! Marr rises to his feet, shaking his head, and once he’s able to gather himself, he stalks TLA down!

Gavin Kirkland: Charlie drags TLA up and whips him harshly into the corner, causing TLA to crash back first into it! TLA stumbles forward, and Charlie comes in with a big boot!

Eve: Oh God! TLA goes down into the corner, and I think he may have clipped the back of his head from that! :lupe:

Deadprez: It definitely looked like it! Man, this match is far from a pretty one! But then again, in an environment like this, there was only ever going to be carnage and chaos! Currently, Charlie is reveling in it as he grabs TLA and yanks him up! He lifts him up, and hits a suplex – but to the steel wall!

Gavin Kirkland: Now that was just dangerous and brutal! Wow! TLA falls down, once again favoring that back! And now, it has become a clear and direct target for the challenger as he stomps down on it before cinching in a camel clutch! TLA looks to be in pain here! This is NOT the kind of position he wants to be in!

Eve: Absolutely not! Charlie Marr is dishing out a lot of punishment here, and TLA is having a hard time as a result. The champion tries to pry Charlie’s hands away from his face, but Marr isn’t having any of it. In fact, he takes his fingers and places them into his mouth, hooking the corners! He stretching out TLA’s face, adding even more insult to injury with this submission attempt here!

Deadprez: That nasty streak of Charlie Marr is coming into play here, and he isn’t backing down! The fans here boo as TLA struggles against him! It isn’t like the champion can use the ropes to help break this up since anything goes inside of a steel cage match!

Gavin Kirkland: And Charlie relents – only to transition into a standing surfboard! He stretches TLA out… BANG! CURB STOMP TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD! JESUS!

Eve: THAT WAS JUST BRUTAL TO WATCH! TLA IS LAID OUT, AND CHARLIE MARR GOES FOR HIS FIRST PINFALL ATTEMPT IN THIS MATCH!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO—

Deadprez: TLA KICKS OUT!

Gavin Kirkland: Wow, I’m surprised TLA wasn’t completely knocked out from that! That looked like something that could knock anyone out cold! But the champion is able to kick out, even if he’s unable to get up immediately.

Eve: And with that, it sets the pace for Charlie to force him up to his feet. He clobbers him in the face before he lifts TLA up and snaps him down with a backbreaker, driving him down onto his knee! TLA flails around, but Charlie goes towards his feet and grabs his legs! He falls back – AND HIS CATAPULTS TLA INTO THE STEEL WALL! TLA CRASHES INTO IT!

Deadprez: Oh man, and not only that, but he falls back first into Charlie’s knees! Charlie gets up and drives his knee into his back before grasping at his chin, once again going for a submission. However, I think it’s less about making TLA tap out in this scenario and moreso hurting him further!

Gavin Kikland: I definitely see that being the case. Charlie has been lazer-focused on that back and he’s doing everything he can to further weaken his enemy. TLA can barely move, and with Charlie’s knee digging into his back, it’s going to make it that much harder for him to try and find a way out of this, if it’s even *possible* for him to do so in the first place!

Eve: Troubling predicament here as Charlie Marr seems intent on punishing TLA in this match. In fact, he lets go of his face – ONLY TO GRAB HIM BY THE HAIR AND RELENTLESSLY SLAM HIS FACE INTO THE CANVAS REPEATEDLY! JESUS!

Deadprez: This is bad! Real bad! Charlie continues to slam his face into the ring, and TLA can’t defend himself whatsoever! Charlie lets go, and TLA rolls away, clutching his face. I think there are some blood droplets hitting the canvas!

Gavin Kirkland: There is! Charlie Marr drew first blood in this match!

Eve: This is getting brutal fast. Charlie doesn’t give TLA the chance to rest. Marr gets him up and hoists him up onto his shoulder! He takes off running and launches him into the corner with the snake eyes! TLA staggers backwards while Charlie hits the ropes! Neckbreaker! TLA is down on the mat once more, and Charlie has a cruel, sadistic grin running across his face!

Deadprez: Charlie definitely looks pleased with his handiwork. TLA is the most vulnerable he has been in this contest by far, and Charlie has continued to deal damage at every turn. He is firmly in the driver seat, and if he keeps this up, he might speed his way into becoming a three-time world champion in his career!

Gavin Kirkland: And that’s exactly what he wants, especially being fresh off of a Pain for Pride loss to Jake Smith. Charlie would love nothing more than to reclaim his spot at the top, and putting down an old adversary in TLA would just be the cherry on top for him.

Eve: Charlie Marr gets a move on now as he grabs TLA and props him up on the middle ropes! He has him hung! The fans begin to boo loudly as Charlie falls back and hits ‘The Last Judgement’!! The rope-hung variant of that patented DDT connects!

Deadprez: And just like that, Charlie may have this match won! He turns TLA around and covers!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Referee: THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE—

Gavin Kirkland: NO! TLA IS ABLE TO KICK OUT!

Eve: And the fans are cheering, glad that TLA was able to keep going! However, Charlie looks less than amused by his foe’s resilience! He grabs TLA and places him on his shoulders, looking for possibly another big move to hit!

Deadprez: But TLA starts to show some signs of life and attacks with some elbows, doing all that he can to throw Charlie Marr off course!

Gavin Kirkland: Here we go! More elbows are thrown and Charlie decides to put TLA down! Charlie kicks him in the gut before trapping both of his arms and lifts him up, looking for ‘The Queen is Dead’!

Eve: But TLA is able to keep himself grounded! Charlie goes for it again, but TLA kicks away! Charlie rushes at him with a clothesline—

Deadprez: ‘SWAG SHOT’! CHARLIE GETS CLOCKED WITH THAT ONE! THE PIMP SLAP HAS HIM DAZED AND TLA TAKES ADVANTAGE, HOPPING ONTO HIS SHOULDERS AND SPIKING HIM ON HIS HEAD WITH A POISONRANA! WHAT A COMEBACK!

Gavin Kirkland: AND TLA SHOVES CHARLIE INTO THE ROPES! HE CATCHES HIM WITH THE ‘DESMARDE’!!! REBOUND SITOUT POWERBOMB TAKES CHARLIE MARR DOWN! COVER! COVER!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Referee: THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE—

Eve: OH, BUT CHARLIE KICKS OUT, KEEPING THIS MATCH ALIVE! THE FANS AREN’T PLEASED!

Deadprez: They may not, but Charlie doesn’t want to lose here tonight, and he’s showing that off tonight as he was able to kick out despite taking back-to-back huge moves from the champion!

Gavin Kirkland: Still, how much longer can Charlie Marr keep going?! He looks nearly out of it as TLA was able to weaken him!

Eve: You may be right, Gavin, and with TLA doing all that he can to keep going despite the pain he’s in, it could be a matter of time before the Answers World Champion closes this out and scores his first title defense since winning at Pain for Pride!

Deadprez: TLA definitely seems intent on winning this. He takes Charlie up and looks to unleash the ‘Mexican Destroyer’!

Gavin Kirkland: … But Charlie Marr drops down and goes completely limp. Oh my. :lupe:

Eve: Wow. I don’t think he has much left in him, then. TLA sees this, and he just casually shrugs before pushing Charlie down. Now, TLA redirects his attention to the top rope. I think he realizes that this can be the end right here!

Deadprez: No doubt he’s going for that patented corkscrew 360 senton of his, otherwise known as the ‘Burnout’, and if he hits it, then that’s it! That’s game, baby!

Gavin Kirkland: The fans sure are anticipating the end right now. They’re firmly behind TLA, ready to see him put down Charlie Marr for good! The champion is at the top and—

Eve: WAIT, WAIT, WAIT! CHARLIE MARR IS BACK UP ON HIS FEET AND RUSHES TOWARDS TLA, PUSHING HIM INTO THE CAGE! HE WAS PLAYING POSSUM THE WHOLE TIME! HE HAD EVERYONE FOOLED!!

Deadprez: Well, damn! Can’t lie, that was smart on his part! He feigned dropping down so that TLA wouldn’t hit the Mexican Destroyer, and in turn, that bided him more time to recover as TLA had to redirect his approach!

Gavin Kirkland: Ever the sly bastard Charlie Marr is, and that is why he is a legend. Even with the pain he is in, you can see that snake-like smirk on his face as he realizes he caught TLA off guard when he least expected it! Charlie climbs up to the top and meets up with TLA. He grabs him… AND DOWN HE GOES! AVALANCHE BACK SUPLEX!

Eve: Both men are down! TLA, landing hard on that part of the body that has become weakened throughout the duration of his bout, is writhing in pain! He can’t get up!

Deadprez: And that gives Charlie all the cause in the world to… wait. What’s that he just pulled out of his trunks??

Gavin Kirkland: Are those *brass knuckles*?!

Eve: They… they are! Charlie didn’t come defenseless in this match! He has those brass knuckles, and the entire arena is almost deafening in its boos! However, anything goes, and that means Charlie Marr as all the liberties in the world to hurt TLA however he sees fit!

Deadprez: Oh boy, this is not good! Not good at all, man! Charlie Marr goes over to TLA and STRIKES HIM IN THE FACE WITH IT! :damn: !!!

Gavin Kirkland: AND HE DOES IT AGAIN! TLA IS DEFENESLESS! THE CHAMPION IS GETTING ATTACKED RUTHLESSLY WITH THOSE BRASS KNUCKLES! HE CAN’T DO ANYTHING!

Eve: AND CHARLIE IS JUST HAVING HIS WAY WITH HIM! MORE PUNCHES ARE UNLEASHED, AND TLA IS BUSTED OPEN ON HIS FOREHEAD NOW! BLOOD IS LEAKING AS CHARLIE CONTINUES TO ATTACK THAT SAME SPOT OVER AND OVER! TLA IS UNABLE TO FIGHT BACK!

Deadprez: TLA MAY BE OUT! HE’S GETTING WEAKER AND WEAKER BY THE SECOND! THE CHAMPION LOOKS JUST ABOUT LIFELESS HERE!

Gavin Kirkland: AND FINALLY, CHARLIE STOPS, BUT NOT OUT OF ANY KIND OF MERCY! HE LOOKS DOWN AT THE BLOODIED BRASS KNUCKLES AND GRINS! THIS IS SICK!

Eve: IT IS, BUT THIS IS CLASSIC CHARLIE MARR FARE! HE WAS GOING TO DO EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO BREAK TLA DOWN, AND AS IT STANDS NOW, HE’S ACCOMPLISHED JUST THAT!

Deadprez: :wow: Charlie came more than prepared for this match. He gets TLA up, looking right at his bloodied face before he drags him towards the steel cage and grates his face against it! Dragging it all around, he’s doing even more damage to his face!

Gavin Kirkland: Oh jeez, I’ve seen a lot of intense stuff in my career here in EAW, but this is making me squeamish! Charlie is not letting up, either! The challenger is having his fun ruining TLA, whose face is completely drenched in his own blood at this rate! He almost looks unrecognizeable!

Eve: Charlie sees red, and he lets go. TLA just falls down on the mat. Charlie Marr stands over him, shaking his head, as if he’s somehow disappointed in him. The nerve!

Deadprez: And now, Charlie grabs TLA by the wrist and drags him up… he gets him in position. He grabs the arms, and spikes him down with the double underhook DDT! ‘The Queen is Dead’!

Gavin Kirkland: Charlie flips TLA onto his back and hooks the leg! This is it!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Referee: THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

(…)

Eve: SHOULDER UP!

Deadprez: WOW! TLA WITH THE KICK OUT! AND CHARLIE MARR IS IN SHOCK! HE THOUGHT HE HAD IT THERE, AS DID EVERYONE! HOWEVER, TLA IS STILL VERY MUCH IN THIS FIGHT, AND HE ISN’T GOING TO QUIT! THE FANS COME UNGLUED FOR THE ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION!

Crowd: TLA! TLA! TLA!

Gavin Kirkland: The baddest hombre on the planet for a reason! :whew: Still, Charlie Marr is still at a far more advantageous position than he is. Charlie gets up, snarling down at TLA who is barely responsive at this point. Marr grabs him, and I think Charlie is going to end this match right here, right now!

Eve: Charlie looks to go for that underhook DDT again… but WAIT! TLA IS SHOWING SOME RESISTANCE! CHARLIE LOSES HIS GRASP ON ONE OF THOSE ARMS AND THEN THE OTHER! CHARLIE IS BEYOND DISBELIEF! TLA SHOVES HIM AWAY, WEAK ON HIS FEET, BUT HE LOOKS AT HIM DEFIANTLY!

Gavin Kirkland: BAHAHA, AND LOOK – HE STUCK THE MIDDLE FINGER AT CHARLIE!

Deadprez: BUT CHARLIE AIN’T AMUSED, AND HE KICKS AT THAT FINGER! TLA HOLDS ONTO HIS HAND AS CHARLIE COMES IN, GOING FOR THAT HELLACIOUS DISCUS LARIAT!

Crowd: :damn: !!!

Eve: BUT TLA SCOUTS IT OUT! HE HAS IT SCOUTED! HE THEN HITS CHARLIE WITH THE ‘CARTEL KICK’!!! OH MY GOD, THE PELE KICK STUNS CHARLIE ON HIS FEET! TLA HAS A WHOLE NEW WIND IN HIM AS HE GETS UP AND LOOKS TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS!

Deadprez: AND HE JUST MIGHT DO IT! HE GETS CHARLIE SET UP AND FLIPS OVER – ‘MEXICAN DESTROYER’!!!

Gavin Kirkland: HE GOT ALL OF IT! CHARLIE GOES DOWN AND TLA GETS THE PIN!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Referee: THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

(…)

Eve: BUT CHARLIE MARR IS ABLE TO KICK OUT!!!

Deadprez: OH MY GOODNESS! THAT MAY HAVE BEEN TLA’S BEST CHANCE OF WINNING THIS MATCH! BUT JUST AS RESILIENT AS HE IS, SO TOO IS CHARLIE MARR! CHARLIE IS ABLE TO KEEP THIS MATCH GOING DESPITE HOW SPENT HE IS!

Gavin Kirkland: Well, this match was going to be crazy, but this is something entirely different! Both Charlie and TLA have been able to keep things going for themselves, but at this point, something has to give! Only one Elitist is going to be able to end Midsummer Massacre on top, and it’s either going to be Charlie Marr or TLA!

Eve: TLA looks hurt and exhausted, but he wipes the blood off of his face. He looks down at Charlie and realizes that he needs to end things, and quickly! TLA grabs Charlie Marr and drags him up. He winces, as he once again favors that back of his!

Deadprez: And that little window gives Charlie the time to shove TLA away from him! The champion staggers back, while the challenger can barely stand! TLA pushes past the pain and does his best to charge forward–

Gavin Kirkland: BUT HE RUNS INTO CHARLIE MARR, WHO SCOOPS HIM UP AND SLAMS HIM DOWN WITH AUTHORITY WITH THE SPINEBUSTER! ‘THE HEADMASTER RITUAL’!!!

Eve: AND THAT’S ALL SHE WROTE! CHARLIE MARR SENDS TLA DOWN! THE CHAMPION IS OUT! HE DOESN’T MOVE! THIS COULD VERY WELL BE IT!

Deadprez: CHARLIE MARR FALLS INTO THE COVER!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Referee: THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Gavin Kirkland: AND CHARLIE MARR—

Eve: ISN’T THE NEW CHAMPION! TLA BARELY LIFTS HIS SHOULDER OFF OF THE CANVAS AT THE VERY *LAST* SECOND! THAT WAS TOO CLOSE TO COMFORT!

Deadprez: AT THIS RATE, WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE FOR EITHER OF THIS MEN TO WALK OUT WITH THE WIN TONIGHT?! THEY HAVE THROWN EVERYTHING AT EACH OTHER, BUT THIS MATCH CONTINUES! THIS IS CRAZY!

Gavin Kirkland: It just goes to show how much the Answers World Championship means a lot to them, and with the animosity shared between them, it has only heightened everything! Charlie isn’t willing to lose, and neither is TLA! Both of them have had an answer for everything, but now, it’s all about who can dig deep and find a way to win!

Eve: And it seems like Charlie Marr is intent on being the one to win! He begins to move… however, he’s not looking for another pinfall! He gets those brass knuckles ready again and begins to pummel away at TLA! Just like before, he’s attacking him!

Charlie Marr: (off-mic) Stay.

(***CRACK!!!***)

Charlie Marr: (off-mic) *The fuck.*

(***CRACK!!!***)

Charlie Marr: (off-mic) **Down.**

(***CRACK!!!***)

Deadprez: Charlie Marr isn’t pulling any of those punches. He continues to crack TLA right in the face, continuing to dismantle him! And TLA doesn’t have an answer for it! He’s becoming more and more hurt in the process as Charlie continues to batter him!

Gavin Kirkland: Charlie Marr finally stops… and TLA isn’t moving. He could very well be out.

Eve: And the fans quiet down as they realize this. We may have a new champion on the horizon as TLA looks completely out of it.

(Charlie looks down at the battered TLA. His face was bloodied, staring up at the lights. The fans then begin to boo, not liking what this will more than likely entail. Charlie, sensing that the end is near, is more than content with what he has done. He takes the brass knuckles down, throws them at TLA and begins to make his way towards the door. He limps a bit, moving a bit slowly, but it’s clear what his intent is, and the fans boo louder than before.)

Deadprez: Well, there’s no need for him to do anything else! I don’t know if TLA is coming back from that! Charlie requests to one of the referees on the outside to open up the door, and they comply! He has this match in the bag!

Gavin Kirkland: Yeah, he does, and just like that, Charlie goes from defeat to triumph! In one month, Charlie went from ending his season on a sour note to starting it on the highest one possible! Charlie Marr walks to the door, and with that, TLA’s reign as world champion is over!

(Charlie Marr steps out.)

Eve: …! WAIT! LOOK!

(But before he can exit entirely, a hand is on his ankle.)

Deadprez: IT’S TLA! TLA GRABS HIM! CHARLIE LOOKS CONFUSED AND THEN LOOKS DOWN, SEEING THAT TLA IS DRAGGING HIS LEG!! CHARLIE HOPS ON ONE FOOT AND LOOKS TO HANG ON TO THE ROPES, BUT TLA FORCES HIS WAY UP TO HIS FEET, AND WITH ALL THE STRENGTH HE CAN MUSTER, HE YANKS CHARLIE MARR AWAY FROM THE DOOR!

(Charlie falls, and gets dragged back to the center of the ring.)

Eve: AND WITH THAT, ESCAPE IS OUT OF THE OPTION! THE DOOR CLOSES, AND TLA TRAPS HIM UP WITH THE ‘AR15”!! TLA PULLS THE LEGS BACK AND CHARLIE CRIES OUT IN AGONY AND FRUSTRATION!! THE CROWD HAS COME UNGLUED!!

Deadprez: CHARLIE IS STUCK! TLA ISN’T LETTING HIM OUT OF HIS SIGHTS! THE DEFENDING CHAMPION HAS HIS CHALLENGER TRAPPED! THIS IS THE WORST POSSIBLE OUTCOME FOR CHARLIE MARR!

Gavin Kirkland: BUT WAIT! CHARLIE MARR STARTS TO DRAG HIMSELF TOWARDS THE ROPES! HE ISN’T GONNA GET A BREAK IN THIS MATCH, BUT EVEN IF HE WON’T FORCE TLA TO LET GO, HE JUST MIGHT HAVE A BETTER SHOT AT GETTING OUT OF THIS HOLD BY LESSENING THE PRESSURE TLA IS APPLYING TO HIM!

Eve: And Charlie Marr is able to get to them! He reaches up to the middle rope, but TLA drags hima away—

Deadprez: Oh! Oh! Charlie kicks at him! He kicks him right in the face! TLA lets go and drops to a knee! Charlie Marr scrambles up to his feet, looking absolutely uncomfortable from being in that hold! However, he goes to TLA and delivers a thrust kick straight to his face! TLA’s rally comes to a screeching halt!

Gavin Kirkland: Oh, man. Just when we thought that TLA would mount a comeback, that gets instantly thwarted! TLA falls to the mat, but Charlie briskly limps towards him and… no way! Don’t tell me he’s gonna go for it!

Eve: HE IS — AND HE DOES! ‘MEXICAN DESTROYER’ ONTO TLA!

Deadprez: :damn:!!!

Gavin Kirkland: Well, he pulled that one out of his book! Charlie flatlines TLA with his own move, or I guess it would be fitting to call it the ‘British Destroyer’ now!

Eve: Charlie Marr just planted him with it! And now, Charlie drags himself towards the ropes before using them to help him up! Marr looks back at TLA, and seeing that he isn’t getting back up, decides to make a break for it! He starts to climb the steel cage!

Deadprez: Oh man! Charlie is making the climb up! He just wants to get outta there and win this match! Charlie is doing all that he can to reach the top! No more pins! No more trying to put TLA down constantly! At this point, all that matters is that he wins tonight, regardless of how he does so, and if that means getting outta the cage, then he’ll do it that way!

Gavin Kirkland: Charlie is halfway there! He’s getting closer and closer to the top!

(The fans boo relentlessly as a shot shows Charlie making his way to the top. It’s an arduous endevour given how physical the match had been in its entirety. However, Charlie was getting closer to his end goal.)

Eve: People may not like the results, but there’s no denying it. Charlie Marr is just severals seconds from escaping the cage!

(But then, the fans cheer. Charlie looks around, confused at their reactions, before looking down and seeing…)

Deadprez: TLA! TLA IS UP! HE’S DAMN NEAR STUMBLING AND TRIPPING OVER HIMSELF, BUT HE MAKES HIS WAY TOWARDS CHARLIE’S SIDE AND STARTS TO CLIMB UP! HE’S DOING EVERYTHING HE CAN TO REACH UP TO HIM!

Gavin Kirkland: AND TLA IS MOVING WITH PURPOSE! THERE’S BLOOD IN HIS EYES, HIS BODY IS CRYING OUT IN PAIN, BUT THE CHAMPION MOVES AND CLOSES THE DISTANCE! CHARLIE CONTINUES TO CLIMB AND REACHES THE TOP–

Eve: – BUT TLA GRABS HIS ANKLE, HALTING HIM! HE CLIMBS UP TO HIM! NOW, BOTH CHAMPION AND CHALLENGER ARE ALL THE WAY AT THE TOP OF THE STEEL CAGE! TLA SITS AT THE TOP AND CHARLIE FOLLOWS SUIT, IMMEDIATELY GETTING INTO A PUNCHING WAR, JUST LIKE WHAT THEY DID AT THE START OF THIS MATCH!

Deadprez: BOTH ELITISTS ARE TEEING OFF, NOT HOLDING BACK! TLA! CHARLIE! TLA! CHARLIE! TLA!

Gavin Kirkland: HEADBUTT BY CHARLIE!

Eve: HEADBUTT BY TLA!

Deadprez: SMACK FROM CHARLIE!

Gavin Kirkland: SMACK FROM TLA!

Eve: AND THAT SEEMS TO HAVE STUNNED CHARLIE FOR A BIT! HE SHAKES HIS HEAD AND GOES FOR ANOTHER PUNCH—

Deadprez: – ONLY FOR TLA TO PUNCH HIM *WITH THE BRASS KNUCKLES CHARLIE THREW DOWN AT HIM EARLIER*!!

Gavin Kirkland: AND CHARLIE GETS ABSOLUTELY CRACKED IN THE FACE! RIGHT ON THE NOSE, HE STARTS TO BLEED!

Eve: TLA HITS HIM AGAIN! CHARLIE NEARLY FALLS BACKWARDS ONTO THE TOP OF THE CAGE! HE LOOKS GLOSSY EYED FROM THAT!

Deadprez: AND TLA TOSSES THE BRASS KNUCKLES AWAY! HE BALANCES ON THAT THIN RAILING AT THE TOP OF THE CAGE AND GETS CHARLIE UP… WAIT, WHAT THE HELL IS HE THINKING OF DOING!???

Gavin Kirkland: Oh, no…

Eve: NO WAY! NO WAY! TLA GETS CHARLIE MARR SET UP!!!

Crowd: :damn: !!!

Deadprez: ## ‘VERY MEXICAN DESTROYER’ FROM THE TOP OF THE STEEL CAGE!!!!!

Gavin Kirkland: WHAT!?

Crowd: HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!

Eve: TLA WIPES CHARLIE MARR OUT! BOTH MEN ARE DOWN IN THE RING! CHARLIE MARR IS OUT COLD!

Deadprez: AND TLA, USING HIS LAST REMAINING STRENGTH, SLINGS HIS ARM ACROSS CHARLIE’S CHEST, GETTING THE PIN!

Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

(…)

Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

(…)

Referee: THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

(DING DING DING!)

(‘Ambitonz as a Ridah’ hits. Majority of the fans go ballistic, but notable shots show off the stunned and shocked expressions at some who are still trying to take in the final minute of the match and what they just saw.)

(Meanwhile, TLA is laying on the mat. That match took everything out of him. Still, he was able to overcome one of his most bitter enemies. Referees come in to check on both Elitists.)

Gina Romano: Here is YOUR winner… aaaaaaaaand STILL the EAW Answers World Champion… T! L! A!

Eve: Well, that may be one of the most insane endings in the history of EAW. What a way for TLA to win and retain. I mean, guys… I’m just speechless.

Deadprez: I don’t blame you, Eve! That was nuts! Still, TLA needed to pull off something big as he and Charlie Marr went through absolute hell and back trying to tear each other apart, and that’s what he needed to do in order to win tonight! This match was just crazy from bell to bell!

Gavin Kirkland: It definitely didn’t disappoint. I think the efforts both men gave here tonight will forever live on, just like their other matches. Last year, TLA came up short in his quest to become a world champion and lost to Charlie Marr, but tonight, at Midsummer Massacre, he was able to avenge himself and show that he is more than capable of being a world champion this season! What a clash!

(TLA is helped out. He is handed his championship, which he raises triumphantly.)

(Charlie, fortunately – or unfortunately, depending on how you view him – is alive, if not in complete and absolute pain. He’s helped away from the ring, barely able to walk. Veena Adams would come rushing out and check on him.)

Eve: Well, it’s safe to say that both Charlie Marr and TLA took a piece of each other in this match. If they ever cross paths again this season, one can only imagine how intense that match would be. But tonight, TLA secures his first title defense, and he remains on top of Showdown. Thank you all for tuning into Midsummer Massacre! We will see you all next week for Showdown!

(As the cage rises, Veena is helping Charlie out as the final shot shows a bloodied TLA barely able to stand being helped by the referee- )

Eve: What a great night and…. WAIT!

Deadprez: OH HELL NAH!!!!!!

(Faneto’ by Chief Keef is heard throughout the arena.)

Gavin Kirkland: :damn:

( The fans are in complete shock as SOSA Henderson comes running out with a referee and his 24/7 Contract in hand.)

Eve: SOSA HENDERSON IS RUNNING TO THE RING AND HE IS GOING TO CASH IN HIS 24/7 CONTRACT ON TLA! HE IS LOOKING TO BE THE NEXT AEW ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION!

Gavin Kirkland: WE WERE SIGNING OFF THE AIR AND NOW SUDDENLY WE HAVE SOSA HENDERSON SLIDING INTO THE RING AS THE CAGE IS STILL BEING LIFTED! HE IS HANDING THE CONTRACT TO THE REFEREE AND SIGNALING TO CASH IT IN!

Deadprez: WE ARE ABOUT TO HAVE A CASH IN! HE REALLY IS DOING IT! THE REIGN OF TLA IS ALREADY IN JEOPARDY!

(SOSA Henderson hands the referee the contract, TLA can barely stand, covered in blood as the referee goes to Gina Romano.)

Eve: HE IS DOING IT!

Gina Romano: EAW UNIVERSE! THE REFEREE HAS JUST INFORMER ME…. THAT SOSA HENDERSON HAS ELECTED TO……

(The crowd explodes in cheers.)

Gina Romano: ….. IS CASHING –

(SMACK!!!!)

Eve: IT’S DONOVAN DUKE! HE CAME OUT OF NOWHERE AND JUST SLAMMED THE CASH IN THE VAULT BRIEFCASE OVER THE HEAD OF SOSA HENDERSON! THE SAME ONE THAT WAS USED ON HIM EARLIER!

(SMACK!!!!)

(SMACK!!!!)

(SMACK!!!!)

(SMACK!!!!)

(SMACK!!!!)

Gavin Kirkland: WHAT THE HELL! HE GRABS SOSA HENDERSON AND THROWS HIM INTO THE RISING CAGE ON HIS WAY OUT OF THE RING AND HE CRASHES HARD! CASH IN FAILED AND –

(Donovan Duke is looking at the briefcase, he then turns to a hurting TLA who is still struggling to stand.)

Crowd: CASH IT IN!!!!! CASH IT IN!!!!! CASH IT IN!!!!

Eve: IS DONOVAN DUKE GOING TO CASH IT IN! IS HE READY TO TAKE THAT WORLD TITLE FROM TLA IN THIS CONDITION!

(Donovan continues to stare at the suitcase before he finally lowers it down. Shaking his head.)

Deadprez: NOT LIKE THIS! HE ISN;T GOING TO BECOME A WORLD CHAMPION LIKE THIS! HE EXTENDS THE HAND AS TLA AND DONOVAN SHAKE!

(The crowd explodes in cheers as Donovan leaves, SOSA Henderson is on the outside still on the floor trying to get up but he is bleeding and in no shape to cash in his contract. TLA nods and lifts up the title as ‘Ambitonz as a Ridah’ plays again throughout the arena.)

Deadprez: TLA survives tonight, but he knows there are TWO targets on him and sooner or later it will come to head! I am Deadprez… for Eve and Gavin Kirkland! We hope you loved Midsummer Massacre and we will see you again next week on Showdown! Goodnight everyone!

(The last shot is of TLA holding his title up to the thrill of the sold out crowd, while knowing that he dodged a bullet.)
