(EAW Intro plays)
Narrator: Throughout history, society has always found ways to punish those who break the law…
(We open to see a medieval looking courthouse)
Narrator: But what happens when those enforcing the law are no better than the criminals who break them…
(We see flashes of Mr. DEDEDE and Amber Keys from their time back in AWF together. It immediately cuts to show Amber attacking DEDEDE at Battle of Egypt before showing flashes of everytime Amber’s name was dragged through the mud, finishing with the now company chairman, Mr. DEDEDE.)
Narrator: Will a young rebel rise up to destroy the establishment and build something better?
(Flashes are seen of Harlow Reichert facing off with Ryan Wilson and matches of Shane Gates and Shaker Jones.)
(We then see inside the medieval courthouse where an executioner stands over a chopping block with an axe in hand.)
Narrator: Will the established leaders fall to the young upstarts?
(Clips are seen of Xander Payne destroying Myles before cutting to show Darkane’s move to Showdown.)
(A prisoner in rags is walked into the courthouse. It’s a woman with red hair. As she looks up, we see it’s Amber Keys bound in chains.)
Narrator: Can the young ones truly make things better? For what is worse? An established Hell or an untamed beast?
(Clips are seen of Lucas Johnson and Lance Blackfyre laying out Heavenly Hell before we then see Minerva cost them a match as well as clips of Constance Blevins.)
(Amber is walked up towards the chopping block and forced to her knees.)
Narrator: As the youth gain their power… are they strong enough to hold onto it?
(We see Jake Smith winning the PURE title at Battle of Egypt before seeing Mark Michaels demand his rematch as well as Santo Muerte earning his title shot.)
(Amber has her head forced down into the chopping block.)
Narrator: Can the greatest among us hold up and overcome the evil nature that guides so many men?
(We see the recent attacks on Jamie O’Hara from the Illionaires before Cameron Ella Ava runs out for the save.)
(The executioner pulls down his hood to reveal its Mr. DEDEDE.)
Narrator: When there’s nothing left to lose… when all options are gone…
(We see DEDEDE lay out the match to Amber and we see Amber accept.)
(Executioner DEDEDE now lifts the axe over his head as Amber is held down on the block.)
Narrator: When your life is on the line… when the executioner’s blade is at your throat…
(DEDEDE swings the axe down at Amber’s neck)
(Cut to black.)
Narrator: How will you fight?

(“Bring Home the Glory” by Sara Skinner continues to play as we open to the T-Mobile Arena In Las Vegas, Nevada and see the swarm of cheering fans.)
SCREENBAR — SOLD OUT
(The fans are going wild as we now cut to the commentary desk of Eve, Deadprez, and Gavin Kirkland.)
Eve: WELCOME EVERYONE AND WE ARE LIVE! THIS IS REASONABLE DOUBT 2019! AND THE BLUE BRAND IS BRINGING IT HEAVY TONIGHT! I am here with Deadprez and Gavin Kirkland for what promises to be an exciting night of action!
Deadprez: That’s right! In our main event, Amber Keys puts it all on the line after costing the company hundreds of millions back at the Battle of Egypt when she attacked the Chairman! Now she steps up against Mr. DEDEDE and she will either leave as the Answers World Champion or with her career ended!
Gavin Kirkland: And In the purest sausage fest of the night, Jake Smith has his first defense against both Santo Muerte and the former champion Mark Michaels! It’s a PURE rules triple threat match!
Eve: And Heavenly Hell will take on Lucas Johnson and Lance Blackfyre! Johnson and Blackfyre made things pretty hellish for the Tag team champs a couple weeks ago but Heavenly Hell made their presence felt as well! Also, Constance Blevins is the number one contender for the Universal Women’s Championship and the champion, Raven Roberts, has promised to be in attendance tonight!
Gavin Kirkland: Go team titties! And speaking of teams that have a pair of titties, the Illionaires are looking to prove it all as they finally have Jamie O’Hara in their sights alongside Cameron Ella Ava. This war has raged since just after Territorial Invasion and it comes to a head here tonight!
Deadprez: And the newest member of Showdown, Darkane will take on Xander Payne. Darkane is a proven talent but Xander is on the warpath to prove he belongs at the top!
Eve: And Harlow Reichert, Shaker Jones, Ryan Wilson, and Shane Gates will do battle for a shot at the Answers World Championship! All this and more right here tonight! Let’s go to Gina Romano for our first contest!
(My Way by Limp Bizkit plays loudly over the PA system as Ryan Wilson steps through the curtain leading up to the stage right under the titantron carrying a hockey stick which rests on his right shoulder.)
Gina Romano: THE OPENING CONTEST of Reasonable Doubt is a FATAL FOURWAY for the Number One Contendership to the Answers World Championship and it is scheduled for ONE FALL!
(The crowd roars… ONE FALL!)
Gina Romano: Introducing first, making his way down to ringside, Hailing from Montreal, Quebec! Weighing in a 212 lbs., accompanied to the ring by SYLVAIN PRIMEAU and BRUJAH ST-MICHEL, he is the “AGENT OF CHAOS” RYAN WILSON!!!
(He is followed by a stoic looking Sylvain Primeau and the towering Brujah St-Michel who cracks his knuckles with a bestial smirk on his face walking behind the Canadian Studmuffin. Wilson takes lead walking slowly towards the ring looking at the crowd frowning at some of them until he makes his way inside the ring and goes to one of the turnbuckles climbing with agility up top and raises his hockey stick high above his head and yells. Doing this on another turnbuckle he then tosses the stick to Sylvain and stands in the middle of the ring.)
Deadprez: Here we go dawg and the Agent of Chaos the first to come out and we saw last Showdown Ryan make a stamen, taking out Shane Gates and Angela Grant.
Eve: It was disgusting and despicable and even though Shane isn’t exactly a nice guy either, it just shows how bad all these four wrestlers were jockeying for position and momentum going into this match, there is a lot at stake and confidence can make the difference.
Gavin Kirkland: Canadians… where’s Harlow?
(The screen goes pitch black and a series of words are shown on the screen although all bloody. They say the words “PEOPLE=SHIT” As Shane gates theme “People=Shit” by Slipknot is blasted and fire is blasted out from the stage. Shane Gates comes out with his wife in tow. Shane wears his signature airplane jacket from his Japan days although all scratched and bloodied up. His wife in tow right behind him. Shane walks down the ramp and proceeds to spit in the face of the nearest fan for no reason as he laughs and continues to walk down the ramp.)
Gina Romano: And the second opponent, accompanied to the ring by Angela Grant, from Huntington Beach, California, weighing in at 213 pounds…. “THE FN’ DYNASTY”…..SHANE GATES!!!
(Angela holds the ropes open for him as Shane Gates steps in, climbing the second rope, he raises his arms as the crowd boos him some more, Ryan Wilson jumps down to the floor as Gates stares him down.)
Eve: Talk about some bad blood from last week and Wilson jumps out of the ring already. These two men know what is on the line and a huge opportunity for both.
Deadprez: New theme, same attitude, Shane Gates has been on a bit of a roll, defeated Victor Jones last week and up until Ryan Wilson attacked him, he is showing why this playa is a premiere athlete on Showdown.
Gavin Kirkland: Let’s talk about what the fans really care about, those tight jeans that Angela Grant is wearing, want to talk about a fashion statement, I may need to call her over here and discuss this matter further.
Eve: Really Gavin?
Gavin Kirkland: Investigative journalism my dear Eve.
(“Love it Loud” by Kiss kicks off as the crowd cheers, the howling of a wolf sounds throughout the arena before Shaker Jones walks out, priming his mustache and beard. Focused on the ring, he makes his way, interacting with some fans never keeping his eyes off Gates and Wilson.)
Gina Romano: And the third opponent hailing from Inglis, Manitoba! Weighing in at 238 pounds! He is “THE CANADIAN WOLF” SHAKER JONES!
(The crowd cheers as Shaker gets to the ring, he rolls in and stand in the middle, looking over at his two opponents, Wilson on the outside and Gates in the corner. He nods as the crowd roars.)
Gavin Kirkland: Another Canadian but the important thing here they saved the best for last!
Eve: Listen to this crowd, they are really behind shaker Jones and while he has had his ups and downs, this man can change his entire season in one match, imagine if he walks out the Number One Contender to the Answers World Championship?
Gavin Kirkland: I am trying…. I can’t.
Deadprez: Don’t sleep on this guy, the Canadian Wolf is looking to silence the critics and in a match like this? Anything can happen!
(“Castle” by Halsey plays as Harlow Reichert walks out onto the set to a mixed reaction, leaning towards cheers, she stops and soaks up the reaction, looking at ringside at the three men that stand in her way. She takes a second to pump herself before walking down to the ring)
Gina Romano: And the final opponent! She hails From Christchurch, New Zealand! Weighing in at 155 lbs.! She is “Ms. NO FUCKS GIVEN” HARLOW REICHERT!
(She runs and slides under the ropes quickly standing up and climbing the turnbuckle and raising her arms high in the air.)
Gavin Kirkland: Finally! Someone I can get behind…. Literally and figuratively, this is my pick to win it all, she has been focused and look at the glow, women get that when confident.
Eve: It’s makeup.
Gavin Kirkland: We are going to be doing this all night, aren’t we?
Eve: Probably but you are right, Harlow is determined, what a huge win it would be for any of these four but Harlow being the only female in the ring, would make it extra special.
Deadprez: Have you ever seen her look more ready? This match right here is a season changer for any of these four wrestlers, they all have the talent to be at the top of Showdown and now it is their time to showcase their talent AND get rewarded.
(All four wrestlers are in the ring, the referee checks on them all, but first he points at SYLVAIN PRIMEAU and BRUJAH ST-MICHEL, then he points at ANGELA GRANT…..)
Referee: You three are OUTA HERE!
(The crowd roars, Shane Gates pleads with he referee, Ryan Wilson throws a tantrum. Harlow and Shaker look on with smirks on their faces…)
Deadprez: The referee is laying the law down now! No one will be allowed at ringside! He wants this to be fair, I like it….. I like it a lot!
Eve: Ryan Wilson’s entourage, Angela Grant for Shane, all gone and with good reason, this was a gutsy move by the referee and now ALL four wrestlers are on even ground, NO advantages, we are going to get a WINNER here and it will be because they were the best of the four!
Gavin Kirkland: NOT ANGELA!
(Angela glances at Shane, blowing him a kiss as she heads to the back, Brujah and Sylvain are both still arguing until Wilson tells them to leave. As they start to all make their way to the back, the referee calls for the bell….)
DING! DING! DING!
Deadprez: In a moment where TLAA would be proud, all four competitors look at one another in a modern-day Mexican Standoff, it seems like they are all hesitant on pulling the trigger. Who will be the first!?
(The crowd starts to cheer, getting rowdy as the competitors look at one another…)
Eve: The stakes are so high for this match, they know it, we know it and the crowd knows it.
Gavin Kirkland: Harlow is standing right in front of us, this standoff needs to continue for at least the next 20 minutes!
Eve: You are impossible, and Harlow makes the first move with a vicious elbow to Shaker Jones! Ryan Wilson and Shane Gates start delivering haymakers at one another! These two men are not going down easily and it loos like Harlow pissed off the Canadian Wolf!
Gavin Kirkland: Harlow, run over here! Hide under the announce table in front of me!
Deadprez: Harlow doesn’t care, she is unloading with forearm after forearm on Shaker’s chest and he is taking it, a big meat hook to Harlow’s head! And another! Backing up Shaker but he stops it cold with a huge clothesline! Harlow is down!
Eve: Shane Gates has Ryan Wilson in the ropes, the two are trading blows but Wilson ducks and flips Gates over the top rope on the floor, watch it Ryan, Shaker Jones with a HUGE BOOT! He caught Ryan off guard, and this could be i!
ONE!!!
TWO!!!
Deadprez: WILSON KICKS OUT! Shaker Jones gets up, but he doesn’t see Harlow rolling him up in a School Boy from behind!
ONE!!!
TWO!!!
Eve: SHAKER KICKS OUT! And suddenly you are seeing these wrestlers in the match trying to end this quick, they do not work by the hour! Gates is sliding back into the ring; Harlow turns right into a Lou Thezs Press! Gates is teetering off on her but… NO! SHAKER JONES WITH A BASEMENT DROPKICK RIGHT IN THE FACE OF GATES!
Gavin Kirkland: This is going too fast, Shaker doesn’t see Ryan Wilson, proud of his move on Gates he doesn’t see Wilson MUSCLE HIM UP FOR A RELEASE GERMAN SUPLEX! SHAKER HITS HARD ON THE MAT! WILSON RUNS TO THE ROPES AND DELIVERS A FLASH ELBOW! HE IS GOING FOR THE QUICK PIN!

Deadprez: SHAKER JONES POWERS OUT! WILSON HAS OTHER PLANS BUT HARLOW REICHERT HITS ATONEMENT ON A UNSUSPECTING RYAN WILSON! ATONEMENT! ATONEMENT!

Eve: GATES KICKS OUT AND THE CROWD IS LOVING THIS, LISTEN TO THE REACTION TO HARLOW!
(The crowd chants NO FUCKS GIVEN! NO FUCKS GIVEN! NO FUCKS GIVEN! Harlow screams as they cheer….)
Deadprez: “Harlow has taken control already and she has the pick of the litter! She grabs Gates with some devastating European forearms over and over on Gates, he knees her in the stomach, a quick Gutwrench Suplex on Harlow to stop the moment! Gates tries to cover but Shaker grabs him by the ankle, pulls Gates away but he flips over and kicks Shaker off just as Wilson comes in with a Cannonball on Gates stunning him! Getting back on his feet he runs at Shaker and goes for the Tornado DDT of Death but Shaker throws him off! Wilson lands hard on his stomach! Her comes Shaker… PELE KIKC BY GATES! JONES FALLS OUT OF THE RING! WILSON IS GETTING UP AND GATES MEASURES HIM!
Gavin Kirkland: HE KICKS WILSON IN THE HEAD TWO, THREE, FOUR TIMES MY GOD THIS MAN WILL BE SPEAKING IN DROOL THE REST OF HIS LIFE! SHANE GATES BACK UPS, SHINING WIZARD! BULLET2HEAD AND HE TOOK WILSON’S HEAD CLEAN OFF! WE MAY HAVE OUR NUMBER ONE CONTENDER!

(Crowd: WOOOO!)
Deaprez: “I don’t think he’s done… KNIFE EDGE CHOP ON HARLOW!
Gavin Kirkland: BE CARFUL YOU DUMB BASTARD! NOT THE TITS!
(Crowd: WOOOO!)
Deadprez: HARLOW AIN’T TAKING NONE OF THAT PLAYA, SHE LAYS ANOTHER KNIFE EDGE CHOP AND MY GAWD! LOOK AT HIS CHEST! IT LOOKS LIKE BURNT SPAGHETTI SAUCE!
(Crowd: WOOO!)
Gavin Kirkland: DON’T YOU DARE SHANE! OUT OF NOWHERE SHAKER JONES SLID BACK INTO THE RING WITH A DOUBLE LARIAT! HE TOOK BOTH DOWN! HARLOW ROLLING OUT OF THE RING!

HE CAN’T EVEN GET A COUNT, HARLOW REICHERT BREAKS IT UP WITH A SPRINGBOARDING FROM THE TOP MIDDLE ROPE DROPKICK!
Deadprez: HARLOW STOPS THE COUNT WITH A STATEMENT! SHAKER JONES IS GETTING UP! REICHERT PICKS UP GATES, SHE IS GOING FOR THE DIVINE COMEDY! IF SHE GETS THIS IT COULD BE OVER! HARLOW BUTTERFLIES THE ARMS, NO! SHAKER JONES HOPS OFF THE ROPES WITH THE SUPA DUPA KICK! FLUSH RIGHT IN THE FACE OF HARLOW! HE MAY HAVE KNOCKED HER OUT!

Deadprez: HARLOW KICKS OUT!
Gavin Kirkland: YES! SHE KICKS OUT!
(Wilson slams the mats with frustration. The crowd boos as he sits there wondering what the hell he has to do to take the contendership.)
Deadprez: Wilson is in complete shock. He wants to end this now and I will tell you this, how much more can any of them take!? He is picking up Harlow by the hair, wait… he HAIR TOSSES HER ACROSS THE RING, MY GAWD! LOOK! HE HAS STRANDS OF HER HAIR IN HIS FINGERS!
Eve: Shane Gates, Wilson is so concentrated on Harlow, he turns right into EAT DEFEAT! WILSON IS STUNNED! GATES SETS HIM UP, HE IS GOING FOR CALIFORNIAN DESTRUCTION! HOISTS UP WILSON AND HERE COMES SHAKER JONES WITH SWITCHIN’ TO GLIDE! AN AALANCHE! KNOCKING BOTH MEN DOWN!
Gavin Kirkland: THAT BIG HAIRY CANADIAN IS NOT DONE! HE IS GRABING HARLOW! SHE’S HURT! LEAVE HER ALONE DAMN IT!
(Shaker Jones looks out to the crowd as the cheer. He signals for the 87’, as they all scream in unison EIGHTY SEVEN!)
Eve: The 87’, Jumping Cutter! NO! HARLOW PUSHES OFF! SHAKER STUMBLES, TURNING AROUND AND HARLOW WITH A FLYING BODYPRESS BUT SHAKER CATCHES HER IN MID AIR! SHE IS FIGHTING! HARLOW IS PUGNACIOUS AND FORCES THEM BOTH OVER THE TOP ROPE! THAT LEAVES GATES AND WILSON IN THE RING ALONE!
Gavin Kirkland: They took each other out and Shaker’s hairy ass landed on Harlow crushing her! We need a Doctor! Like…. Dr. B…
Eve: DON’T EVEN GO THERE!
Deadprez: Wilson is getting up first, he took the least impact, what is he doing?
(Wilson rolls out of the ring, he walks over to the Spanish Announce Table and starts taking the monitors out. The crowd starts cheer as the Spanish announcer step back….)
Spanish Announcer 1: No otra ves! Esto paso en el ultimo PPV!
Spanish Announcer 2: Hijo de la puta!
(Wilson smirks and roll back in the ring….)
Deadprez: What is Ryan Wilson doing!? What is he doing! ? He is grabbing Shane Gates and hoisting him on the top rope! WILSON WITH A FOREARM! AND ANOTHER! HE IS CLIMBING TO THE TOP WITH GATES!

Deadprez: THIS IS COMPLETELY INSANE! THEY ARE TEETERING! SHANE IS FIGHTING BACK! WILSON AND SHANE TRADING BLOWS AS WILSON TRIED TO LAUNCH GATES INTO THAT ANNOUCE TABLE…..

Deadprez: JONES IS IN THE RING! JONES IS IN THE RING!

Deadprez: THEY ARE DEAD DAWG! THEY ARE DEAD!

(Shaker screams before finally tapping….. TAP TAP TAP….)
Eve: HE TAPS OUT! HE TAPS OUT! SHAKER JONES TAPS OUT!
DING!!!!! DING!!!!!!!!!! DING!!!!!!!!!
(Harlow rolls off covering her face in pain as she lies on the mat next to Jones. “Castle” by Halsey plays throughout the arena. EMT’s are checking on Ryan Wilson and Shane Gates. The referee raises the arm of Harlow as she slowly tries to get to her feet holding the hurt ribs…..)
Gina Romano: THE WINNER OF THE MATCH AND THE NUMBER ONE CONTENDER TO THE ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP…… “MS. NO FUCKS GIVEN”….. HARLOOOOOOW REICCCHHHHEEEERRRRTTTT!
(The crowd cheers, some boo but praise the effort of all four wrestlers in this match,)
Deadprez: These four wrestlers gave it their all, they showed why EAW is the best and the Showdown brand is the leader! Harlow Reichert, hurt was able to catch Shaker Jones and took the victory but all four left their hearts out there, love them or hate them.
Eve: Amazing and if this is setting the tone for the rest of the show… WOW. I just hope that Ryan Wilson and Shane Gates are okay being checked on right now by the medical staff. Harlow through all obstacles walks away with the victory tonight.
Gavin Kirkland: She did it, there was question when she lost to Mark Michaels and look at her now! Harlow Reichert is THE Number One Contender!
(Harlow rolls out of the ring and makes her way up the ramp. Shaker leans against the ropes disappointed, as the EMT’s help up Wilson and Gates. Reasonable Doubt fades to a commercial break.)
(Commercial break for Mountain Dew featuring Landerson. HERE COMES THE BOOM!!!!)
(Reasonable Doubt returns and cuts to Gina.)
Gina Romano: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN… THE FOLLOW CONTEST IS SCHEDULED FOR…
Crowd: ONE FALL!
(The opening riffs to ‘Wizard in Black’ by Electric Wizard begin to play as the lights begin to dim. Soon, a dark figure wearing a black, long jacket emerges from beneath the soil of a holographic graveyard in an entrance only seen earlier this year at Pain for Pride. The dark figure begins crawling out of the holographic dirt as the fans begin cheering as they seem to immediately know who it is based on the shovel in the figures hand.)
Gina Romano: Making his way to the ring.. From New Orleans, Louisiana… Weighing in at 240 pounds…. DAAARRRRRKKAAAAAA-
(Suddenly, a scratch is heard, and all the lights go out. Not long after, ‘It Follows’ by Cane Hill starts up, and the lights fully turn back on as Xander Payne takes off the jacket and wig he was previously wearing. Upon the reveal the crowd immediately begins booing, but Xander has a huge smile on his face due to how he fooled everyone as he begins walking down the ramp towards the ring.)
Gina Romano: Ahem.. MAKING HIS WAY TO THE RING… FROM BRAMPTON, ONTARIO, CANADA… WEIGHING IN AT 255 POUNDS… XXAAANNNDEERRRRR PPAAAAAAAAYYYYNNNEEE!!!!
Deadprez: WOW! What disrespect shown here as Xander Payne just fooled us all! We all thought Darkane was making an entrance as big as he made a few months ago at the biggest show of the year, but instead it was the Paynekiller, seemingly trying to get into the mind of his opponent here!
Eve: Now, if any of you somehow don’t know who this man is, his name, as said before, is Xander Payne. This man is a former New Breed Champion, AND a former Unified Tag Team Champion with his partner Myles. If you wanna know what happened to Myles? The two got into more than a little disagreement, and Xander got rid of him. Tonight, Xander claims he’s going to do the same thing to Darkane.
Gavin Kirkland: Hopefully this one ends quickly. The less of Xander Payne I see, the better.
(It’s after that when ‘Born Too Late’ by Saint Vitus hits, and the crowd begins cheering even louder than before as Darkane walks out to the stage. This time there are no confusions or mistakes, it is the Grave Worm for sure. Darkane finally begins making his way to the ring, keeping his eyes locked on his open who has exited the ring, but still has that grin on his face from earlier.)
Gina Romano: AND HIS OPPONENT… FROM NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA… WEIGHING IN AT 240 POUNDS… DAAARRRRRKKAAAAAANNEEE!!
Gavin Kirkland: Darkane is gonna destroy that pig.
Deadprez: I don’t know if I’d say he’ll destroy Xander, but I will say Xander may have bitten off more than he can chew here tonight. Darkane is a former Answers World Champion, and the only singles Championship Xander has won, despite competing for the National Elite and World Heavyweight Championships, is the New Breed title.
Eve: Darkane is one of the most destructive competitors in the company, but at the same time we saw what Xander did to Myles. If I had to make a guess, I’d say that no matter who wins, neither man is gonna walk out of the match the same.
Gavin Kirkland: Really? Darkane would eat guys like Xander for breakfast. Which is funny really, normally it’s Xander doing all the eating.
Deadprez: Anyways, I guess it’s time to start this one.
(The referee goes to start the match but Xander holds up his hand.)
Xander Payne (Off Mic): Hang on.
Darkane: :wtf:
(Xander walks to the ropes and motions for Gina to hand him the microphone.)
Xander Payne: Alright, look. We already know how this match is going to end and that’s with me sending you, Darkane, to the same place I sent Myles…
(The crowd cuts Xander off with their jeering. He simply smirks in return.)
Xander Payne: But I want to be nice about this and give you a fair chance. How about we turn this match into your specialty? How about we make this… I don’t know? A deathmatch?
Darkane (Off Mic): You want to take me on in a deathmatch?
Crowd: YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES!
(Xander nods.)
Eve: DARKANE RESPONDS BY NAILING XANDER PAYNE WITH A BOOT TO THE FACE AND SNATCHING THE MICROPHONE FROM HIM! DARKANE IS BEATING THE HELL OUT OF XANDER WITH THE MICROPHONE NOW AND HAS ALREADY SPLIT XANDER’S FOREHEAD OPEN! DARKANE TOSSES THE MICROPHONE TO THE SIDE AND JERKS XANDER UP, WHIPPING HIM INTO THE ROPES! SPEAR! SPEAR! XANDER IS FOLDED IN HALF AND THE REFEREE IS SIGNALING FOR THE BELL!
(Ding! Ding! Ding!)
Deadprez: :damn: DARKANE WITH THE COVER AND THIS MATCH IS OVER!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
TTTTTHHHHHRRRRREEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: XANDER GOT HIS SLAB OF BEEF SHOULDER UP AT THE LAST POSSIBLE NANOSECOND!
Deadprez: DARKANE SLIPS TO THE OUTSIDE OF THE RING AND GRABS A STEEL CHAIR! HE’S TOSSING IT INTO THE RING ALONG WITH A METAL TRASH CAN, KENDO STICK, AND WHATEVER ELSE HE CAN FIND UNDER THAT RING!
Eve: We marketed this show as a mostly pure wrestling show with the exception of Hell in a Cell! I hope this match doesn’t piss off or offend the purest of fans we might have watching.
Gavin Kirkland: Man fuck all that. The only thing those disgusting neckbeards are gunna do is accuse the show of being quote ‘overbooked’ so I say lets have a fucking hardcore, bloody ass, MOTHER FUCKIN’ SPOTFEST! THROW THE WHOLE DAMN KITCHEN SINK INTO THE RING!
(As if on cue, Darkane pulls out a kitchen sink.)
Eve: Oh Gawd…
Deadprez: XANDER PAYNE IS BACK UP AND HE SEES WHAT’S GOING ON! HE GRABS THE STEEL CHAIR AND MEETS DARKANE AS THE GRAVE WORM CLIMBS BACK INTO THE RING! XANDER SLAMS THE CHAIR OVER DARKANE’S BACK! DARKANE SHAKES IT OFF AND GETS TO HIS FEET AND LOOK AT THE EXPRESSION ON XANDER’S FACE! HE IS SHOOK! XANDER SWINGS FOR THE FENCES BUT DARKANE CATCHES THE DAMN CHAIR AND KICKS XANDER IN THE GUT!
Gavin Kirkland: Let’s keep it real Deadprez. Xander’s gut just ate that man’s foot.
Eve: DARKANE TAKES THE CHAIR AND SLAMS IT ACROSS XANDER’S BACK SENDING THE PAYNEKILLER TO HIS KNEES! NOW DARKANE IS CRACKING THE CHAIR OVER XANDER’S HEAD! XANDER IS DOWN AND DARKANE PLACES THE CHAIR ON THE MAT! HE YANKS XANDER UP, GETS HIM IN POSITION… CALLING IN THE CORONER! DARKANE JUST PLANTED XANDER INTO THE CHAIR WITH HIS VERSION OF THE STROKE! DARKANE QUICKLY HOOKS THE LEGS FOR A COVER!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
TTTTTHHHHHRRRRREEEEEEEE-
Deadprez: Xander kicks out!
Gavin Kirkland: Darkane is right back to work though! He mounts that beached whale and starts hammering away! Darkane is further aggravating the wound he caused earlier when he slammed the microphone into Xander’s forehead and blood is just pouring down the face of Xander Payne. Darkane seems content to just punish Xander at this point and make him squeal like the little fat porker of a piggy that he is! Darkane is back up now and he brings Xander up too, he nails Xander with an uppercut and sends him back into the corner! Darkane rushes forward and looks for a corner clothesline, but Xander gets the foot up, catching Darkane in the jaw! Darkane stumbles back and Xander springs forward, clothesli- NO! Darkane ducks but Xander whirls around, catching Darkane with a boot to the gut! Xander hooks Darkane, looking for a DDT, but Darkane blocks and grabs the tights! He attempts to lift Two Ton Tony in the air, but Xander wiggles his short fat legs and disrupts Darkane’s momentum! Darkane sets him back down, clubs him the back of the head, and that forces Xander to his knees!
Deadprez: Darkane with a flurry of knee strikes now, which cause Xander to start bleeding from the mouth! I don’t know about y’all, but Xander might be regretting his decision to make this match a deathmatch right about now! Darkane has been dominant since before the bell, and it doesn’t look like the former Answers World Champion is even remotely close to being done. Darkane pulls Xander up… EXPLODER SUPLEX INTO THE TURNBUCKLE!
Eve: Darkane grabs for the kendo stick and stalks Xander, who is trying to figure out how the hell he’s going to get himself into this match. Darkane’s got the kendo stick raised over his head and he slams it do- NO! XANDER SLIPS OUT OF THE RING AND HITS THE GROUND! THE KENDO STICK SLAMS INTO THE MAT AND XANDER QUICKLY HOISTS HIMSELF UP USING THE RING SKIRT. DARKANE SLIDES OUT OF THE RING AND XANDER IS QUICK TO PULL HIMSELF BACK IN! DARKANE FOLLOWS SUIT AND XANDER IS RIGHT BACK TO THE FLOOR NOW!
Xander Payne (Off Mic): Naw, fuck this.
Gavin Kirkland: Xander is making his way up the ramp! He’s leaving the match despite the fact he asked for this!
Deadprez: Darkane not about to let him get away just like that! Darkane is out of the ring and he chases down ‘The Paynekiller’! He grabs Xander and turns him around BUT XANDER JUST NAILED DARKANE WITH A RIGHT HAND TO THE JAW! DARKANE JUST WENT DOWN LIKE A TON OF BRICKS AND WHAT’S THAT?! THOSE ARE BRASS KNUCKLES! XANDER JUST CLOCKED THE GRAVE WORM AND DARKANE IS DOWN!
Eve: XANDER HAS DARKANE BY THE HAIR AND HE IS DRAGGING HIM BACK TOWARDS THE RING! XANDER TOSSES DARKANE INTO THE RINGSTEPS AND BEGINS PUTTING THE BOOTS TO HIM! XANDER BACKS UP TO GET A RUNNING START… CANNONBALL SENTON CONNECTS! DARKANE’S HEAD JUST SLAMMED INTO THE STEEL! XANDER ROLLS BACKWARDS AND GETS UP TO HIS FEET… FOLLOWING UP WITH A DROPKICK TO DARKANE AGAINST THE STEPS! XANDER IS REACHING UNDER THE RING NOW AND HE PULLS OUT A FIRE HYDRANT! XANDER SPRAYS DARKANE WITH THE FIRE HYDRANT AND SLAMS IT RIGHT INTO DARKANE’S FACE! DARKANE IS BUSTED OPEN NOW AND XANDER THROWS HIM INTO THE RING! XANDER QUICKLY GOES TO THE TOP ROPE AND FLIES OFF… ELBOW DROP!!! XANDER LANDED THAT RIGHT SMACK DAB IN THE MIDDLE OF DARKANE’S CHEST AND HE GOES FOR HIS FIRST COVER OF THE MATCH!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
TTTTTHHHHHRRRRREEEEEE-
Gavin Kirkland: KICKOUT!
Deadprez: Xander bites back a little bit of frustration but he has to know that was never going to be enough to put Darkane away. He grabs Darkane and drags him over to the edge of the ring! He hooks Darkane’s arms in the ropes and looks around the ring. His eyes finally settle on the kendo stick and he grabs it, before making his way back over to this opponent! Xander takes the kendo stick and slams it down on Darkane’s head! Xander does it again… and again! He breaks the kendo stick over Darkane’s head on the fourth try and takes the piece that remains in his hand and drives it into the skull of ‘The Grave Worm’!
Eve: :lupe: Blood is pouring that head wound now, and Xander is just digging that broken stick into Darkane’s skull. Darkane is helpless at the moment because Xander has him trapped! Xander’s left that broken stick stuck in Darkane’s skull and he’s stomping away at Darkane’s face now! Xander has finally gotten himself into the match now and he is doing whatever he can to truly hurt Darkane now.
Gavin Kirkland: Free Willy unhooks Darkane from the ropes and drags him to the center of the ring. That kitchen sink is just sitting there and Xander’s got his beady little eyes on it. He picks up the sink and hoists it in the air… AND THE MAN JUST DROPPED THE SINK DOWN ON DARKANE’S ABDOMEN! DARKANE CLUTCHES HIS STOMACH AND XANDER IS LAUGHING! XANDER GRABS THE SINK AGAIN AND HE SLAMS IT DOWN INTO THE GUT OF DARKANE! DARKANE IS COUGHING UP BLOOD AND XANDER TOSSES THE SINK TO THE SIDE! HE PULLS DARKANE UP AND TOSSES HIM INTO THE CORNER!
Deadprez: Darkane slams back first into the turnbuckles and slumps to the mat. Xander takes off running and nails him with another cannonball senton! Xander quickly grabs Darkane and pulls him up, locking his arms around Darkane’s waist. He pulls Darkane up and hits with a release German suplex!! Darkane slams into the ropes and Xander grabs him, going for the quick cover!!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
TTTTTHHHHHRRRRREEEEEEEEE-
Gavin Kirkland: DARKANE LIVES!!!
Eve: Xander looks a little surprised, but Darkane is a former Answers World Champion. This man has survived war after war!
Deadprez: Xander pulls Darkane back to his feet and throws him out of the ring! Darkane hits the ground and Xander backs up, waiting for Darkane to get to his feet. Darkane is having a hell of a time getting back up, BUT HERE GOES XANDER! XANDER COMES RUNNING AND THERE’S A SUICIDE DIVE THROUGH THE ROPES!
Eve: BUT DARKANE MOVES! XANDER CRASHES AND BURNS!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: DID YOU FEEL THE GROUND SHAKE?!
Deadprez: Darkane may have just given himself new life in this match, but he has got to find a way to capitalize on this! Darkane is crawling towards the ring and he lifts the skirt, reaching under it!
(The crowd erupts as Darkane pulls out his trademark shovel.)
Eve: :damn: THAT’S CERTAINLY GOING TO HELP HIM CAPITALIZE! DARKANE HAS A SHOVEL AND HE’S CRAWLING TOWARDS XANDER! XANDER IS BACK UP TO HIS FEET BUT DARKANE DRIVES THE HANDLE OF THE SHOVEL RIGHT IN XANDER’S BALLS! XANDER DROPS TO HIS KNEES AND DARKANE WHIPS THE SHOVEL ACROSS XANDER’S FACE! BLOOD JUST WENT FLYING AND I THINK XANDER MIGHT BE UNCONSCIOUS! DARKANE DOESN’T SEEM TO CARE THOUGH! HE’S GOT THE POINTED END OF THE SHOVEL AND HE’S LOOKING TO DRIVE IT RIGHT INTO XANDER’S THROAT! DARKANE RISES TO HIS FEET AND HE RAISES THE SHOVEL ABOVE HIS HEAD :lupe:!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: :mjlit: CALL ME PEYTON BECAUSE YOUR MAN ABOUT TO DIE! :blessed: :blessed: :blessed:
Deadprez: DARKANE BRINGS THE SHOVEL DOWN BUT HE STRIKES CONCRETE! XANDER ROLLED OUT OF THE WAY AND THANK GAWD TO BE HONEST! THAT SURELY WOULD HAVE DECAPITATED THE FORMER NEW BREED GOD AND DARKANE DOESN’T SEEM TO CARE! XANDER SCRAMBLES BACK TO HIS FEET AND DARKANE SWINGS THE SHOVEL, CONNECTING WITH XANDER’S BACK! XANDER FALLS TO HIS KNEES AND BEGINS TO CRAWLING AWAY, BUT DARKANE GRABS HIM BY THE PANTS AND JERKS HIM UP! DARKANE WHIPS XANDER INTO THE STEEL BARRICADES AND FOLLOWS IT UP WITH A HUGE EREBUS SPLASH! :mjgrin:
Gavin Kirkland: DARKANE HAS THE HANDLE OF THE SHOVEL NOW AND HE’S SHOVED IT UP UNDER THE CHIN OF XANDER! DARKANE IS CHOKING XANDER WITH THE HANDLE OF THE SHOVEL NOW!!! HE’S DRAGGING XANDER BACK TOWARDS THE RING AND HE SLAMS XANDER’S FACE OFF THE HARDEST PART OF THE RING! HE RELINQUISHES THE CHOKE IN ORDER TO SHOVE XANDER INTO THE RING AND DARKANE CRAWLS BACK IN AS WELL!
Deadprez: Xander is crawling right for the ropes but Darkane grabs him by the ankle and pulls him right back into the center of the ring! Darkane pulls Xander up and positions him right over the shovel. :lupe:!!!!
Eve: Darkane gets Xander up and :damn:!!!! CASKET CLOSER ONTO THE SHOVEL! TOMBSTONE PILEDRIVER!!! DARKANE JUST DESTROYED XANDER! THAT HAS GOT TO BE IT!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
TTTTTHHHHHRRRRREEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: NO! THAT PIECE OF BLUBBER IS STILL ALIVE!!!! HOW COULD THAT EVEN BE POSSIBLE!? HOW IS XANDER PAYNE STILL IN THIS MATCH, XANDER OF ALL PEOPLE!? THIS MATCH SHOULD BE OVER! IT’S NO WONDER WHY DARKANE CAN’T BELIEVE HIS EYES, XANDER PAYNE SOMEHOW IS STILL IN THIS!
Deadprez: We can’t underestimate the resilience of Xander Payne after this match. The fight Xander Payne is bringing to Darkane is a fight I’m sure many people watching didn’t expect. Darkane now exiting the ring, and it looks like he’s going for another weapon as he begins looking out of the ring… AND NOW THIS IS WHERE WE SHOULD START WORRYING! DARKANE JUST GRABBED A SLEDGEHAMMER FROM UNDER THE RING! THIS MAN ALREADY TRIED TO KILL XANDER EARLIER IN THE MATCH, NOW WHAT’S HE GONNA DO!?
Eve: Oh no.. Darkane now entering the ring, and Xander still hasn’t gotten back up! This isn’t looking too good for the Paynekiller right now. Darkane grabbing that shovel, and he’s placing it under the head of Xander. Darkane now raising the sledgehammer over Xander’s head- OH MY GOD!
**Clang!**
Gavin Kirkland: NO! THE DONUTKILLER MANAGED TO MOVE AT THE LAST SECOND ONCE AGAIN! ONCE AGAIN XANDER MANAGED TO AVOID A LIKELY DEATH AS THE SLEDGEHAMMER CONNECTS WITH THE SHOVEL, BUT NOT XANDER’S HEAD! XANDER LOOKS LIKE HE’S IN DISBELIEF AS ONCE AGAIN HIS LIFE NEARLY CAME TO AN END, BUT NOW DARKANE SWINGS THE SLEDGEHAMMER AT XANDER ONCE AGAIN!
Deadprez: BUT XANDER ONCE AGAIN MANAGED TO MOVE, AND HE GRABS THE SHOVEL- AND XANDER SLAMS IT ACROSS DARKANE’S LEG! XANDER GETTING ONTO BOTH KNEES AS HE BEGINS WHACKING THE SHOVEL ACROSS DARKANE’S LEG! DARKANE IS DOWN TO ONE FOOT, AND NOW XANDER IS BACKING UP INTO THE CORNER! XANDER PULLING HIMSELF UP TO HIS FEET, AND NOW HE’S CHARGING IN, LOOK OUT DARKANE-
Eve: DARKANE SMASHES THE SLEDGEHAMMER INTO XANDER’S MIDSECTION! XANDER DROPPING TO THE MAT AFTER RECEIVING THAT SHOT WITH THE SLEDGEHAMMER, BUT DARKANE ISN’T LOOKING SO HOT EITHER AS HIS LEFT LEG SEEMS TO STILL BE SUFFERING THE EFFECTS OF THAT SHOVEL! DARKANE STILL MANAGING TO GET TO HIS FEET THOUGH, AND NOW DARKANE JUST SLAMMED THE SLEDGEHAMMER INTO THE BACK OF XANDER! XANDER SCREAMING OUT IN PAIN, BUT IT’S BE AN OBVIOUS LIE TO THINK DARKANE CARES HOW XANDER FEELS RIGHT NOW!
Gavin Kirkland: Xander now pulling himself into the corner, BUT THAT’S NOT WHERE HE WANTS TO BE AS DARKANE SHOVES THE SLEDGEHAMMER HANDLE INTO XANDER’S THROAT AND BEGINS TO CHOKE HIM! DARKANE IS CHOKING XANDER USING THE SLEDGEHAMMER, THAT FAT PIECE OF GARBAGE XANDER SOMEHOW IS MANAGING TO KICK DARKANE OFF OF HIM THOUGH, AND NOW XANDER ROLLS OUT OF THE RING, HAVING TO RETREAT FROM THE GRAVE WORM!
Deadprez: Darkane rolling out of the ring in pursuit of Xander, AND NOW DARKANE IS ATTACKING XANDER FROM BEHIND! DARKANE CLUBBING THE BACK OF XANDER AS IT LOOKED LIKE XANDER WAS TRYING TO GRAB SOMETHING FROM THE TIMEKEEPERS AREA! WAIT, XANDER WITH AN ELBOW TO THE JAW, CAUSING DARKANE TO STUMBLE BACK A BIT! DARKANE NOW-
Eve: XANDER JUST LAUNCHED THE TIMEKEEPERS BELL INTO THE FACE OF DARKANE! XANDER LEANING ONTO THE BARRICADE TO EVEN STAND, BUT HE JUST FLOORED DARKANE WITH THE BELL! XANDER NOW EYEING THE UNMOVING BODY OF DARKANE, AND I THINK HE HAS SOMETHING IN MIND AS HE SLOWLY BEGINS APPROACHING HIM! XANDER NOW LIFTING DARKANE UP, OH MY GOD!! XANDER WITH A POWERBOMB ONTO THE APRON!!!
Gavin Kirkland: NO NO NO NO NO!!! DARKANE MAY BE HURT!!! XANDER JUST POWERBOMBED DARKANE ONTO THE APRON, AND NOW HE’S ROLLING HIM BACK INTO THE RING! XANDER PAYNE MAY HAVE DARKANE BEAT! XANDER GOING FOR THE COVER NOW, PLEASE DARKANE KICK OUT! DON’T LET THIS GUY BEAT YOU, NOT HIM!!
OOOOONNNNNEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
TTTTTTWWWWWOOOOOOO!!!!
TTTHHHHRRRREEEEEEEEEE!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: YES, YES! THANK GOD YES!! DARKANE KICKED OUT!!! DARKANE IS STILL IN THIS MATCH!!!
Deadprez: HOW DID HE DO IT!? HOW DID DARKANE MANAGE TO SURVIVE THAT POWERBOMB ON THE APRON!? XANDER IS YELLING AT THE REFEREE BUT THE MAN DID HIS JOB! SOMEHOW DARKANE JUST MANAGED TO GET HIS SHOULDER UP BEFORE THREE! XANDER IS FURIOUS RIGHT NOW, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE HE’S WILLING TO DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO GET THE JOB DONE AS HE SLOWLY BEGINS TO CLIMB THE TOP ROPE! DARKANE HAS YET TO EVEN MOVE AS XANDER GETS INTO POSITION! FROG SPLASH!!!!
Eve: WAIT, NO! DARKANE MOVED!! DARKANE MANAGED TO MOVE AT THE LAST SECOND AND XANDER JUST CRASHED ONTO THE MAT! DARKANE TRYING TO GRAB ONTO THE ROPES TO PULL HIMSELF UP, AND IT LOOKS LIKE HE CAN’T CAPITALIZE OFF OF THAT HUGE MISTAKE AS XANDER SLOWLY BEGINS FINDING HIS WAY BACK TO HIS FEET! BOTH COMPETITORS MANAGING TO SLOWLY FIND THEIR WAY UP AS XANDER BEGINS APPROACHING DARKANE- BUT DARKANE JUST POKED XANDER IN THE EYE!
Gavin Kirkland: YES! XANDER HAS BEEN TEMPORARILY BLINDED BY DARKANE, AND NOW DARKANE IS GRABBING THAT SLEDGEHAMMER- AND HE JUST SWUNG IT RIGHT INTO THE BACK OF XANDER’S HEAD!!!! XANDER IS BLEEDING PROFUSELY FROM THE BACK OF HIS HEAD, WHAT HAS DARKANE DONE!? DARKANE NOT EVEN GOING FOR THE COVER, INSTEAD IT LOOKS LIKE HE’S FOCUSED ON TRYING TO DESTROY XANDER!! DARKANE GRABBING THAT STEEL CHAIR, AND NOW HE’S BASHING IT OVER THE BACK OF XANDER’S HEAD! HE’S ATTEMPTED TO END THIS MAN’S LIFE TWO TIMES NOW, AND RIGHT NOW I THINK HE’S ACTUALLY GOING TO DO IT!!
Deadprez: DARKANE ISN’T STOPPING WITH THAT CHAIR, BUT THANK GOD XANDER WAS CLOSE ENOUGH TO THE ROPES TO BE ABLE TO ROLL HIMSELF OUT OF THE RING! EVEN SO, XANDER IS DOWN AND I DON’T SEE HIM GETTING UP ANYTIME SOON AS HE’S HE’S SLOWLY BEING COVERED IN BLOOD! DARKANE SLOWLY FOLLOWING XANDER OUT OF THE RING, AND HONESTLY I THINK THIS MATCH NEEDS TO BE CALLED OFF OR SOMETHING BEFORE DARKANE JUST HURTS XANDER EVEN MORE! DARKANE GRABBING XANDER NOW, AND THE PAYNEKILLER IS SENT FACE FIRST INTO THE RINGPOST, CAUSING HIM TO LAND RIGHT ON THE ALREADY BLOODY BACK OF HIS HEAD!
Eve: Darkane now with that steel chair, and he’s wrapping it around Xander’s neck! Deadprez I’ve gotta say, I agree with you here! If this match isn’t stopped Xander may be very badly injured! Darkane now picking Xander up with the chair around his neck, AND HE THROWS HIM BACK INTO THE RING POST- NO! XANDER STOPPED HIMSELF WITH HIS FOOT! XANDER WITH AN ELBOW TO BACK DARKANE AWAY FROM HIM, AND NOW HE PULLS THAT KENDO STICK FROM INSIDE OF THE RING BEFORE HITTING DARKANE RIGHT IN THE MIDSECTION WITH IT!
Gavin Kirkland: NO! XANDER NOW TAKING THAT STEEL CHAIR OFF OF HIS HEAD BEFORE HITTING DARKANE IN THE MIDSECTION WITH IT, FOLLOWING IT UP BY HITTING HIM IN THE BACK WITH THAT CHAIR! XANDER REPEATEDLY SLAMMING THE STEEL CHAIR ACROSS DARKANE’S BACK, AND FINALLY THAT ELEPHANT HAS RUN OUT OF ENERGY AS HE HAS TO USE THE APRON TO KEEP HIS BALANCE! DARKANE TRYING TO USE THE BARRICADE TO GET BACK UP- BUT XANDER HITS HIM IN THE HEAD WITH THAT CHAIR! DARKANE LOOKS OUT OF IT! Xander now climbing onto the apron, and he’s pulling Darkane up as well. Wait a second. This doesn’t look good. XANDER HAS DARKANE UP IN A POWERBOMB POSITION!! NO NO NO! STOP!! PLEASE DON’T!!
Deadprez: DARKANE FIGHTS OUT OF IT! I THOUGHT DARKANE WAS DONE FOR BUT IT LOOKS LIKE HE ISN’T! SPEAR!!! DARKANE JUST SPEARED XANDER OFF OF THE APRON!! BOTH MEN ARE DOWN AS DARKANE JUST CONNECTED WITH A HUGE SPEAR TAKING BOTH MEN OFF OF THE APRON AND ONTO THE GROUND!! THESE TWO ARE GIVING THIS MATCH THEIR ALL AND AT THIS POINT I DON’T THINK I CAN SAY I HAVE AN IDEA OF WHO’S GOING TO WIN! THESE TWO ARE GIVING IT EVERYTHING THEY HAVE, HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO CHOOSE A WINNER!?
Eve: Forget choosing a winner, we don’t even know if either man is capable of getting back to their feet! The referee now checking on both competitors- BUT DARKANE ISN’T FINISHED! DARKANE IS WAVING OFF THE REFEREE, AND IT LOOKS LIKE HE’S TRYING TO GRAB ONTO THE BARRICADE TO PULL HIMSELF UP! SOMEHOW DARKANE MANAGED TO BRING HIMSELF BACK INTO THIS MATCH DESPITE THAT POWERBOMB ONTO THE APRON EARLIER, AND NOW IT’S HIM BRINGING HUGE MOVES AFTER SUCH A HUGE SPEAR OFF OF IT!
Gavin Kirkland: Darkane is dragging Xander back to his feet, and surprising enough I don’t think Darkane is through with Xander just yet! Darkane grabbing that timekeepers bell- AND IT LOOKS LIKE HE’S DARKANE GOT SOME REVENGE AS HE JUST SMASHED IT RIGHT INTO XANDER’S FAT FACE!! DARKANE NOW ROLLING XANDER INTO THE RING, IS HE FINALLY PLANNING ON FINISHING THIS MATCH!? DARKANE TRYING TO PULL XANDER UP- BUT NO! WHY!? WHY IS XANDER STILL TRYING TO FIGHT!?
Deadprez: XANDER WITH A HUGE RIGHT HAND CAUSING DARKANE TO STUMBLE A BIT! DARKANE NOW ATTEMPTING A LARIAT- BUT XANDER SUCKED IT! BLOODY NOSE!! DARKANE JUST DROPPED TO A KNEE, AND IMMEDIATELY YOU CAN SEE THE BLOOD STARTING TO TRICKLE DOWN THE NOSE OF DARKANE! DARKANE IS STILL GETTING BACK UP THOUGH, THESE TWO WANT TO FINISH THIS- AND THERE’S THAT SHOVEL FROM DARKANE!!
Eve: NO! XANDER CAUGHT THE SHOVEL!! XANDER PUSHING THE SHOVEL INTO THE MIDSECTION OF DARKANE, AND NOW XANDER IS PICKING DARKANE UP!! THE PAYNEKILLER!!! JUST LIKE THAT, XANDER JUST HIT THE PAYNEKILLER ON DARKANE, AND THAT MAY BE IT!!! IT’S GOTTA BE IT!!! XANDER NOW GOING FOR THE COVER, IS HE REALLY GOING TO BEAT DARKANE OF ALL PEOPLE!?!?
OOOOONNNNNNNEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
TTTTTWWWWWOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
TTTTTTHHHRRRREEEEEEEEE-
Gavin Kirkland: WHAT!? XANDER LET GO OF DARKANE!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING YOU IDIOT!?!? XANDER JUST RELEASED THE PIN, WHY WOULD HE DO THAT WHEN HE HAD THE MATCH WON!?!? DOES HE NOT CARE ABOUT WINNING THIS MATCH!?!? Wait a minute… Oh no.
Deadprez: Xander Payne is picking up that shovel, and right now Darkane is at Xander’s mercy! Wait, NO! XANDER STOP! XANDER IS STUFFING THE SHOVEL INTO THE MOUTH OF DARKANE AS FAR AS HE CAN!! WE’VE SEEN DARKANE DO THIS IN THE PAST, DON’T TELL ME HE’S GONNA DO WHAT I THINK HE’S ABOUT TO DO!!!
Eve: XANDER WALKING AROUND TO THE BACK OF DARKANE AND- OH MY GOD!!! XANDER DID IT!! OPEN FACE SURGERY ON DARKANE!!! DARKANE IS LIFELESS AS XANDER JUST STOPPED ON THE BACK OF HIS HEAD, AND I THINK THIS ONE IS OVER AS XANDER GOES FOR THE COVER!!! EVEN THE REFEREE IS HESITANT TO NOT JUST CALL OFF THE MATCH!!!
Gavin Kirkland: YOU’VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!! WHAT AN ACT OF DISRESPECT!! PLEASE, NOT LIKE THIS DARKANE!! DON’T LET XANDER WIN LIKE THIS!!!
OOOOOONNNNNEEEEEEE!!!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
TTTTTTHHHHHRRRRREEEEEEEE!!!!
(Ding! Ding! Ding!)
Gina Romano: HERE IS YOUR WINNER…… XXAAAAAAANNNNDDEEERRRR PPAAAAYYYYYYNNNEEEEE!!!!!
Deadprez: I have no words to describe what we just saw right there. Xander had the match won the second he hit the Paynekiller, but instead of just ending it there, he beat Darkane in the most disrespectful way possible. Not only was it disrespectful though, Darkane may be seriously hurt.
Eve: “Seriously hurt” is putting it mildly. And let’s not forget this is Darkane of all people. Normally it’s Darkane that’s doing this to others, now we’ve just seen Xander do the same to him in an already incredibly brutal match up. I gotta say, this match was nothing short of a war. These two gave it everything they’ve got, but in the end Xander scored possibly the biggest win of his career, and in the process may have done exactly what he said he was going to do.
Gavin Kirkland: Wait. You don’t mean, sending him where he sent Myles, right?
Deadprez: Who knows Gavin? What I do know is this. This is a night Xander is going to celebrate for ages, and rightfully so. Darkane isn’t a man just anybody is able to beat, but this man right here, somehow he managed to do it.
(‘It Follows’ picks back up and the arena is overcome by boos. Even so, Xander Payne has a devilish grin on his face as his hand is raised by the referee, before he tells the referee to go away. Soon after Xander takes a look at all the angry, and even sad fans in the crowd as he even begins to chuckle, before leaving the ring, leaving behind all the weapons, and Darkane, who still hasn’t moved after being pinned by the Paynekiller.)
( Broadcast transitions backstage to the Showdown interview area where Kyra Phillips is standing by with a microphone in her hand. )
Kyra Phillips: It is looking like a rite of passage for many of our Showdown Elitists, and for one woman in particular it is a do or die scenario as she enters the Hell in a Cell match this evening with her career on the line as she challenges for the Answers World Championship. She’s here with me now… please welcome, AMBER KEYS!!!!!
( Amber Keys enters the frame and the audience gives a thunderous ovation. She is dressed to compete in ring gear with a dark hoodie zipped up to cover her top, and she wears a confident smile on her face. )
Kyra Phillips: Thank you for taking a second out of your day to speak with me, Amber. You have managed to get the EAW Universe squarely in your corner over the past number of weeks simply by speaking your truth. A lot of people including myself feel they can relate to what you’ve gone through and you’ve turned a 180 in public perception since that fateful night at Battle of Egypt, where you got involved in the main event and cost EAW 350 million dollars. However while most find themselves relating to your story, very few people know exactly what it’s like entering a scenario like you are tonight. What are you feeling heading into tonight?
Amber Keys: (takes a breath) I feel incredible. I feel more alive than I’ve ever felt before in my life. It’s exciting, being here. I’m confident. I’m as prepared as I’ll ever be. I’m sure during this match my confidence will be put to the absolute test because no one does to their opponents quite like Ryan Adams, but at the end of the day I know I put the time in and work in. God only knows how many hours I dedicated to being prepared for where I am right now. I’m in the best shape of my fucking life, I’m at 100%, no nagging injuries, and most importantly I’m at peace. I accept this entire situation for what it is because I know there’s no turning back now, and I wouldn’t want it any other way.
It’s nice that people can relate to me, but I’m not here to be a hero. Truth be told I never was. I’m not the protagonist to this little story, I’m not anybody’s role model. I’m just me. Amber Keys. The Dirti Diva you all grew up to know and love, or hate who has freed herself with her truth. It feels nice to have people in my corner, but I won’t delude myself into thinking for one second that I’m not all alone out there when the doors to Hell in a Cell are chained shut. I know exactly what I’m up against, and I know who I’m dealing with better than anybody.
Kyra Phillips: There’s a lot of people who want to see you win tonight Amber, but with all due respect, there aren’t a lot of people who believe you actually can win.
Amber Keys: I understand that.
Kyra Phillips: So what is keeping you walking into a match like this willfully? What makes you believe that you can win tonight against arguably the greatest of all time, at his angriest?
Amber Keys: You got it! You just answered it right there with your own question. That last little tidbit, his “anger”. Most people would say it’s justified right? I cost Ryan Adams hundreds of millions of dollars and ruined an epic championship match between himself and Charlie Marr. I destroyed the narrative of a perfect show ending with two of the most talented athletes in the world, and turned it into a fiasco. That’s enough to inspire the wrath from anybody isn’t it? But not this time.
The misconception here Kyra is that I incurred Ryan’s wrath at Battle of Egypt. The truth is that man has spent the last decade and a half burning inside because of me. For as badly as he and his other cohorts robbed me all those years ago, like I said, I am far from the blameless protagonist some of you think I am. It’s no secret. I’ve had that man’s heart and his mind in the palm of my hand, and I crushed it with a smile on my face. And he’s had painful reminders of what I did to him thrown in his face year after year, era after era, decade after decade.
This fire breathing, misogynistic woman hating, MGTOW hard on hoes crap that you have heard from that man incessantly is nothing more than deep seated resentment that continues to bleed out in every one of his little scathing monologues. Even when this business was thought to have long passed me by, the cornerstone of this business himself still reflected me always. That’s the Amber Effect. I activate his rage like no other person in the history of his career. For all of the enemies he’s faced, all of the giants he’s conquered, and all of the rivals he’s outlasted.. the pain that I caused him is the one enemy that he hasn’t been able to overcome. It has done everything from sabotage his relationships, to hampering his decision making, and the reason for that is simple. It’s because even after all these years I still have Ryan Adams’ heart locked in my hands, right where it belongs.
And I’ve come to learn quickly that when a woman owns a man’s heart, even for a period of time, she owns his soul forever.
( Amber combs her fingers through her hair and smiles before continuing. )
Amber Keys: Soul ties are real Kyra, and no matter what fresh new blonde bimbo he finds himself betrothed to, at the end of the day I still control his mind. I know how Ryan’s mind works. I know how he perceives the world. I know what gets his attention, what throws him for a loop, what makes his heart skip a beat. I know what puts a knot in his throat. And most importantly, what rattles him to his core. Most of Ryan’s opponents go into matches against him putting on their brave face. They are playing through fear and are therefore playing a character. I am playing in the absence of fear. No gimmicks, no charades, no bullshit. Just Amber. I am not afraid of that man, and truth be told I don’t even have hate in my heart for him. And my advantage comes from the fact that I KNOW he cannot say the same thing about me.
Ryan hates me with every fiber in his being, and there’s an awfully thin line between “love” and “hate”. I took him across that line years ago and it has scarred him deeply ever since. I’ve already crossed nearly every line there is imaginable to cross. I cross that final line tonight inside Hell in a Cell. And if this is the end of my career, if the mouth of Hell itself opens up and swallows me whole, I’m going to drag that sadistic son of a Bitch down to Hell with me. And we can finally have what we once wanted more than anything in the world: an eternity together, forever.
Kyra Phillips: Thank you, Amber.
( Amber nods and takes her leave, leaving behind a stunned Kyra Phillips who can feel the weight behind Amber Keys’ statement )
Eve (in the background): The Unified Tag Team Championships on the line! Heavenly Hell — Constance Blevins and Minerva are looking to prove their worth as the top team in this company. However, in their way is a new alliance consisting of Lucas Johnson and Lance Blackfyre! Will the champions reign supreme going into Road to Redemption? Or will The Emperor and Omen of Destruction bring in a new era…one with royalty?
(The camera pans to ringside as Universal Women’s Champion and Voltage’s own Raven Roberts is sat ringside with the title on her lap. Raven was personally invited to Reasonable Doubt and she wasn’t going to pass up the opportunity to study her opponent at Wicked Games, Constance Blevins.)
(“Young and Bitter” by Hot Media Tag plays through the speakers as Lucas Johnson comes out sitting on top of the shoulders of Lance Blackfyre. Lance looks like an intimidating force, showing no ounce of emotion. Lucas dons his beautiful crown. Albert Hitchman stands next to them as he has Lucas’ royal ring in a pillow. Albert is trying to hype up his client as the crowd is booing the living hell out of these three.)
Gina Romano: THE FOLLOWING MATCH IS SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL—
Crowd: ONE FALL!!!!!!!
Gina Romano: AND…IT’S FOR THE ELITE ANSWERS WRESTLING UNIFIED TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIPS!!!! INTRODUCING FIRST…BEING ACCOMPANIED TO THE RING BY ALBERT HITCHMAN…WEIGHING IN THE COMBINED WEIGHT OF 570 POUNDS…THEY ARE THE TEAM OF “THE OMEN OF DESTRUCTION” LANCE BLACKFYRE AND “THE EMPEROR”… LUUUUUCCCCCAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSS JOOOOOHHHHHHHNNNNNNNNNNNSSSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: I know it’s Lucas Johnson, but I am obsessed with the persona change! I think it has provided him with the confidence that he really needed! Sure, he’s been on the losing end of a lot of things, but he never gives up! He lets those losses motivate him into delivering his best! He’s been a bit stagnant over the past several months, but maybe, he has learned from all of those failures enough to come out and give the performance of his entire career!
Eve: There’s also Lance Blackfyre, who has been able to handle Heavenly Hell by himself! He managed to take down the Unified Tag Team Champions by himself! Albert Hitchman said on Showdown last week to let Lance do the work and by the way he was able to handle Heavenly Hell, will there be a need for Lucas Johnson to get himself involved in the match?
Deadprez: I’m unsure if Heavenly Hell are going to walk out with those Tag Team Championships. Just the idea of these two pulling an upset makes me uneasy! Lance Blackfyre and Lucas Johnson are both hungry individuals. They have found themselves on the lower end of the card! Lucas can stand toe-to-toe with the likes of Jamie O’Hara and when motivated, Lucas is shown to be a wonderful talent! Lance shined back at Midsummer Massacre and I’m not sure if we’re going to get that same energy in this match that we did in that event!
Gavin Kirkland: Lucas Johnson and Lance Blackfyre have one tag team match underneath their belt! They are facing a team who has reigned the Tag Team Division for about five months now! A team with much better chemistry than them! Sure, Lance could make a huge difference, but we’ll see!
(By the time the commentators are done with talking, Lucas Johnson and Lance Blackfyre are in the ring. Albert Hitchman tries to give as much advice as possible as they wait for their opponents. “Young and Bitter” dies down as they wait for the champions to come out.)
(“No More” by Disturbed blasts through the speakers as the crowd gives a mixed ovation for the Unified Tag Team Champions. Constance Blevins and Minerva come out in matching ring gear with the Unified Tag Team Championships on their waist. Heavenly Hell look laser focused on their opponents in the ring, not really paying attention to anything else, but them. Constance takes a glimpse of Raven Roberts, noticing her presence, but tries not to let that phase her.)
Gina Romano: INTRODUCING THEIR OPPONENTS…THEY ARE THE CURRENT REIGNING AND DEFENDING ELITE ANSWERS WRESTLING UNIFIED TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS….”THE ABSOLVED” CONSTANCE BLEVINS AND “THE GYPSY MOTH” MINERVA!! THEY ARE…. HEEEEAAAAAVVVVEEEEEENNNNNNNLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY HEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!
Eve: Heavenly Hell weren’t sure if they were going to be on the card! Jenny Punk wasn’t putting any competitors against of them! It provided anyone to challenge the champions at Reasonable Doubt! I don’t think that they were expecting for Lucas Johnson out of everyone to challenge them! It seemed like Heavenly Hell didn’t believe that Lucas was going to find a partner on time, but Lance Blackfyre made his presence known by causing Constance Blevins a victory over Lucas Johnson! Lance managed to dismantle Heavenly Hell and make their statement that they’re coming for the titles!
Deadprez: What Lance Blackfyre did with them was terrifying! On Showdown last week, we saw Lucas Johnson stick his nose in Minerva’s business as she faced Xander Payne for a chance to face Raven Roberts at Wicked Games! It was a Beat the Clock Challenge and Lucas did what he needed to do and that was waste the time that Minerva needed! Minerva tried spraying The Dark on Lucas, but ended up nailing Xander and costing herself the match! At Wicked Games, it will be Constance Blevins of Heavenly Hell taking on Raven Roberts for the Universal Women’s Championship!
Gavin Kirkland: Let’s not promote a Voltgina FPV, please. We need to at least get through Reasonable Doubt! This is our time to shine!
(Raven Roberts looks over her shoulder and raises her brow at Gavin Kirkland.)
Gavin Kirkland: Okay, don’t stare at me like that, Raven! Even though Heavenly Hell were in a Beat the Clock Challenge, I don’t think Minerva is holding it against Constance! I feel like it’s made Heavenly Hell’s bond even stronger and Lucas Johnson and Lance Blackfyre will know that first hand in this match! Heavenly Hell has a bunch of frustration building up! These two believe that they have been cannon fodders on Showdown! They are offended that they need to prove to Jenny Punk that they’re decent competition for The ILLIONAIRES, even though they’re the champions! Heavenly Hell need to retain tonight if they want that match with The ILLIONAIRES to be considered!
Eve: A lot weighing on Heavenly Hell’s mind, but let’s get this match underway!!
(DING! DING! DING!)
Gavin Kirkland: The beautiful Minerva begins with match for Heavenly Hell! It seems like our beloved Emperor is going to begin the match for this newly brought alliance! The Unified Tag Team Championships are on the line and as dominating as Heavenly Hell has been, I’m not super certain that they will be able to walk out with those titles!
Eve: You gotta give these women some faith, Gavin! They’ve been able to rule the Tag Team Division since Pain for Pride! Might as well give them Tag Team of the Year because these two women have been the backbone of the Division. They have been undervalued on this brand and it must frustrate them enough! I see that being enough of a factor to assure that they keep those titles going into Road to Redemption!
Deadprez: Minerva and Lucas Johnson are circling each other, looking for that opportunity to lock up! Minerva launches herself to lock up with Lucas Johnson —
**TAG!**
Gavin Kirkland: Lucas Johnson tags in the Omen of Destruction, Lance Blackfyre! He is a factor that Heavenly Hell needs to look out for! Only a select few people on this roster can say that they’ve been able to put Lance down! Heavenly Hell aren’t those people! Instead, we had to witness Lance nearly take Constance and Minerva and put them through our announce table! Lucas takes Lance’s spot on the apron as Lance steps inside the ring!
Eve: Minerva’s demeanor becomes more guarded as Lance Blackfyre towers over her! Minerva is going to need to be extra careful! We saw how Lance was able to manhandle her and Constance on Showdown two weeks ago! It seemed like it was with no effort at all!
Deadprez: Minerva charges towards Lance Blackfyre with a punch —
Gavin Kirkland: Lance Blackfyre manages to stop Minerva’s punch right on its tracks! While having a good grasp on her fists, he shoves Minerva towards the horizontal ropes! The champion rebounds from the ropes as Minerva tries to go for that punch again; however, she tries to go for the flying forearm in hopes that it will be enough to knock her taller challenger down! NO! LANCE MANAGES TO CATCH MINERVA BY HER NECK! ALREADY IN THIS MATCH? LANCE BLACKFYRE WITH THE TITANIC PLUNGE — ONE HANDED CHOKESLAM ON THE GYPSY MOTH!!!!
Eve: No! Minerva manages to land on her feet as she delivers a kick to Lance Blackfyre’s stomach! Lance manages to catch Minerva by her leg, but Minerva manages to count with an enziguri which stumbles Lance to his side, but doesn’t seem enough to knock the bigger man down! Minerva runs towards Lance before connecting with a dropkick as Lance drapes the upper part of his body on the second rope! MINERVA JUMPS ON LANCE’S BACK AS SHE STANDS ON IT! SHE USES THE ROPES AND CONNECTS WITH A ROPE CHOKE ON THE CHALLENGER! MINERVA IS CHOKING THE HELL OUT OF LANCE BLACKFYRE! IT SEEMS LIKE MINERVA IS DOING FINE SO FAR, BUT THE MOMENT THAT LANCE GETS BACK TO HIS FEET, IT’S GOING TO BE HEAVENLY HELL’S WORST NIGHTMARE! MINERVA AND CONSTANCE CAN’T LET LANCE GET BACK TO HIS FEET!
Referee: ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE! LET GO, MINERVA!
Deadprez: Minerva doesn’t necessary let go of the rope choke on Lance Blackfyre, but Minerva gets Lance and connects with rope hung triangle choke on the challenger! Lance still remains on the second rope, but Minerva is dangling from the outside!
Referee: ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE—
Gavin Kirkland: LUCAS JOHNSON WITH A SHOOT KICK THAT RELEASE THE ROPE HUNG TRIANGLE CHOKE FROM LANCE BLACKFYRE! MINERVA FALLS ON THE TOP OF HER HEAD TO RINGSIDE! THE CROWD IS NOT HAPPY ABOUT THAT, BUT LUCAS RAISES HIS ARMS IN CONFIDENCE AS HE EMBRACES THE HEAT FROM THE CROWD!
Lucas Johnson (off-mic): TAG ME IN, LANCE! LET ME HAVE THIS BITCH!
Eve: Lance Blackfyre does exactly that as he goes over to his corner!
**TAG!**
Eve: Lucas Johnson is the legal man in this match as he jumps from the apron and goes to retrieve Minerva from the outside! LUCAS GETS A FISTFUL OF MINERVA’S HAIR AND LOOKS HER DIRECTLY IN THE EYES BEFORE THROWING THE CHAMPION HEAD FIRST AGAINST THE BARRICADE! MINERVA IS HOLDING HER HEAD IN PAIN, BUT YOU CAN SEE THE INTENSE LOOK ON THE CHALLENGER’S FACE! LUCAS GRABS MINERVA BEFORE GETTING HER BY HER WAIST AND CONNECTING WITH A GERMAN SUPLEX! MINERVA’S NECK LANDS ON THE HARD PART OF THE APRON! It seems like it’s going to be one of those matches where Minerva is going to take a lot of abuse, but there’s nothing that Minerva can’t take in these types of matches! She knows what’s on the line! She knows what could be ahead of her when she makes it past Reasonable Doubt!
Deadprez: The possibility of Heavenly Hell versus The ILLIONAIRES is enough motivation to make sure that Heavenly Hell successfully retains tonight! Lucas Johnson gets Minerva by her waist again before connecting with another German suplex! This time, Minerva lands on the back of her head on the steel steps! Lucas is really bringing the punishment to Minerva in this match! There’s a lot weighing on his mind as well! It’s been a while since Lucas has found himself in a championship match! For a while now, Lucas has found himself on the losing end of matches, but he’s hoping that his luck begins by knocking off the Unified Tag Team Champions? Is Lance Blackfyre and this whole persona chance what Lucas needed to get himself his second championship in EAW?
Gavin Kirkland: Maybe, maybe not, but The Emperor is looking fantastic going into the match! You can see the sinister grin on Lord Hitchman’s face! The wheels are beginning to turn as Lucas manages to roll Minerva back inside the ring! Lucas slides himself back into the ring before going for the first cover in this match!
Referee: ONE! TWO!
Eve: The Unified Tag Team Champion kicks out at two! The Emperor manages to get Minerva in a chokehold! Minerva is trying to shift her body over to the Heavenly Hell corner! Minerva needs for Constance Blevins to become a presence in the match! Lucas Johnson manages to shift her body away from her corner, but he maintains the chokehold! Lucas manages to wrap his legs around Minerva before applying more pressure onto the chokehold! Lucas may get the champion to submit here, but it’s nothing that Constance Blevins could do! Constance knows that if she tries to intervene for Minerva, it may provide Lance and Lucas from getting the upper hand on her partner! That’s something that Constance can’t do!
Constance Blevins (off-mic): COME ON, MINERVA!!!!!
Lord Hitchman (off-mic): STAY DOWN, MINERVA!!!
Constance Blevins (off-mic): SHUT UP!!!!
Deadprez: Minerva seems to be in trouble at the moment as she could feel herself passing out! It seems like Constance Blevins has had enough and decides to step through the ropes and stomp on the forehead of Lucas Johnson! The official approaches Constance and tells her to get back into the ring! I think what Constance did was the best thing for Minerva at the moment and happily, Lance Blackfyre did nothing about it! However, I can sense him being a factor later in this match! Lance has stood on the apron, watching this entire match go down! Minerva is recovering at the corner, but it seems like Lucas is not going to provide Minerva with anytime to recover! Lucas runs towards the corner, but Minerva gets her foot up and stops Lucas in his tracks! Minerva gets on the top turnbuckle before jumping from the top rope before connecting with a crossbody!
Gavin Kirkland: Lucas Johnson is able to roll Minerva over and pick her up! Lucas manages to get a good hold of Minerva’s waist again before connecting with a German suplex! Minerva goes crashing to the corner!
Eve: NO! MINERVA MANAGES TO LAND PERFECTLY ON HER FEET, BUT SHE STUMBLES BACK TO THE HEAVENLY HELL CORNER AS CONSTANCE BLEVINS MANAGES TO MAKE A TAG! HER FIRST APPEARANCE IN THIS TAG TEAM MATCH!
**TAG!**
Deadprez: The Absolved makes her presence known in this match! I’m not sure if Lucas Johnson is aware that Minerva is no longer the legal woman in this match as he turns himself around —
Gavin Kirkland: CONSTANCE BLEVINS CACHES LUCAS JOHNSON OFF GUARD WITH A ROUNDHOUSE KICK! CONSTANCE MANAGES TO TAKE DOWN HER CHALLENGER BEFORE PROCEEDING TO MOUNT PUNCHES ON THE EMPEROR! THE EMPEROR IS TRYING TO BLOCK EACH SHOTS TO HIS FACE! Constance rises back to her feet as she delivers a battlecry! Constance delivers a glare to the Universal Women’s Champion, who seems focused in this match! Constance gets Lucas back to his feet by pulling his arm! Constance manages to connect with a short-armed clothesline as she manages to take Lucas down! Constance picks up Lucas by his arm again before connecting with another short-armed clothesline! Lucas drops his back as Constance manages to take a few steps back! She’s demanding Lucas to get back to his feet! Slowly, Lucas rises back to his feet, but Constance runs towards him!
Eve: Constance Blevins takes Lucas Johnson down with a running lariat! Lucas gets back to his feet, but Constance takes him down with a side kick to Lucas’ chin! Lucas falls to one knee before Constance pulls him closer in a headlock before connecting with a DDT! Constance rolls Lucas to his back before going for a cover!
Referee: OOOOOOOOOOOOONE!!!! TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Deadprez: The Emperor with a kick out! Lucas Johnson and Lance Blackfyre are still in this match as Constance Blevins gets Lucas to his feet and drapes the upper part of his body through the middle rope! CONSTANCE EXITS THE RING BEFORE CONNECTING WITH MULTIPLE KNEE STRIKES TO THE CHALLENGER’S FACE! LUCAS IS EATING EVERY ONE OF THOSE KNEE STRIKES! THIS MAY BE ENOUGH TO WEAKEN LUCAS! LUCAS WAS DOING QUITE WELL EARLIER IN THIS MATCH, BUT IT SEEMS LIKE HEAVENLY HELL HAS PUT A STOP TO THAT MOMENTUM! CONSTANCE TURNS HER HEAD TO LOOK AT RAVEN ROBERTS, WHO IS JUST SITTING AND WATCHING THE MATCH! CONSTANCE FEELS RAVEN’S PRESENCE FOR SURE!
Gavin Kirkland: LANCE BLACKFYRE GETS CONSTANCE BLEVINS BY HER HAIR AND DROPS HER ON HER BACK! CONSTANCE LANDS ON THE APRON! IT SEEMED LIKE LANCE WAS WAITING FOR THE PERFECT MOMENT TO DO SOMETHING! HE SAW THE PERFECT OPPORTUNITY WITH CONSTANCE’S FOCUS ELSEWHERE! Lucas falls back inside the ring! He’s trying to shake his head and prove that those knee strikes to the head did not impact his focus in this title match! Constance rolls off the apron and falls to ringside near our table! It seems like this was the opening that Lucas and Lance’s team to get them back in this match up! Lucas exits out the ring and stands on the apron! He is above Constance Blevins as Lucas takes a couple steps back! LUCAS RUNS ON THE APRON BEFORE CONNECTING WITH A SHOOTING STAR PRESS ONTO CONSTANCE! WHAT A BEAUTIFUL SHOOTING STAR PRESS FROM THE EMPEROR!
Eve: That was an impressive move! I got to give him that! The challenger gets back to his feet as he’s standing up like he just won the match! There’s a match still going on, Lucas! Gavin, Deadprez, look inside the ring —
Deadprez: MINERVA LAUNCHES HERSELF THROUGH THE MIDDLE ROPE AND CONNECTS WITH A SUICIDE DIVE TO LUCAS JOHNSON ON THE OUTSIDE! MINERVA SAVING HER PARTNER OF THE POTENTIAL ABUSE THAT SHE COULD GO THROUGH IN THIS MATCH! MINERVA IS LOOKING DOWN ON LUCAS WITH INTENSITY IN HER EYES! MINERVA GETS LUCAS AND THROWS HIM TOWARDS THE STEEL STEPS!
Gavin Kirkland: LANCE BLACKFYRE JUST CONNECTED WITH A BIG BIG BOOT TO MINERVA!!!! LANCE TOOK DOWN THE UNIFIED TAG TEAM CHAMPION!!! Just with a snap of a finger, the match could change! Whenever Heavenly Hell seem like they are shifting this match back into their favor, Lance Blackfyre has been there to ruin the fun! LANCE PICKS UP MINERVA BY HER HAIR AND FLIPS HER LIKE A RAG DOLL! MINERVA LANDS BACK FIRST ON THE STEEL STEPS! LANCE TURNS AROUND AS CONSTANCE JUMPS FROM THE APRON! TORNADO DDT!!!
Eve: THIS FREAK OF NATURE IS ABLE TO PUT A STOP TO THE TORNADO DDT! HE MANAGES TO CARRY CONSTANCE BLEVINS LIKE A CHILD BEFORE BATTERY RAMMING HER AGAINST THE RING POST! CONSTANCE DROPS TO THE GROUND AS SHE’S CRYING OUT IN PAIN! THIS MATCH HAS GONE OUT OF CONTROL RING SIDE! The official is demanding for the legal participants to get back into the ring! If I can recall, Lucas and Constance are the legal competitors in the match! Lance rolls Constance back inside as he manages to get Lucas and rolls him inside! Lucas is trying to drag his arm and he drapes it over Constance! Could this be enough to end the match?
Referee: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE!!!!! TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Deadprez: Constance Blevins gets a shoulder up! Lucas Johnson’s eyes widened! This was not enough to put the champion down! Lucas tries to rise back to his feet before tagging in Lance Blackfyre back inside the match! Lance is the freshest competitor in this match! Minerva is out of the equation for the time being after Lance threw her towards the barricade! This is not looking good for Constance Blevins! She has a Universal Women’s Championship Match next weekend! She can’t go into the match in bad shape! Lance gets Constance by her arm and gets her back to her feet! Lance Irish whips the challenger towards the corner! Lance runs towards Constance at the corner! Lance with a huge clothesline to the champion! Constance is holding her chest in pain before stumbling forward! Lance gets Constance before connecting with a sidewalk slam! Lance is in perfect position to cover the champion as he does that!
Referee: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE!!!! TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Constance Blevins kicks out! Lance Blackfyre doesn’t looked shocked about Constance kicking out! He has a calm and serious look on his face, which intimidates me sitting on this table!
Lord Hitchman (off-mic): WRAP UP THIS MATCH, LANCE! THESE HARLOTS HAVE SUFFERED ENOUGH!
Eve: LANCE BLACKFYRE GETS CONSTANCE BLEVINS BY HER THROAT! CONSTANCE IS GASPING FOR HER AS LANCE MANAGES TO LIFT HER UP ABOVE HIS HEAD — TITANIC PLUNGE ON CONSTANCE! HOW MANY FEET IN THE AIR WAS THAT FOR HER! SEVEN? EIGHT ? NINE FEET IN THE AIR! CONSTANCE CRASHES DOWN AS LANCE PLACES HIS FOOT ON CONSTANCE’S STOMACH! THIS MAY BE OVER! :lupe:
Referee: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE!!!!! TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
Deadprez: MINERVA CONNECTS WITH A CHOP BLOCK TO THE BACK OF LANCE BLACKFYRE’S LEG!!! FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THIS MATCH, LANCE DROPS TO HIS BACK!!! HEAVENLY HELL IS STILL IN THE MATCH!!!!!! MINERVA WAS ABLE TO STOP THE COUNT!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: :blessed: :blessed: :blessed:
Eve: Lucas Johnson enters the ring, but Minerva manages to drop The Emperor with a drop toehold! MINERVA GETS TO HER FEET AS LUCAS DOES THE SAME THING, BUT THE CHAMPION CONNECTS WITH A LOU THESZ PRESS ON HER CHALLENGER! MINERVA BEGINS TO PUNCH THE LIVING HELL OUT OF LUCAS JOHNSON AND I AM LOVING EVERY MOMENT OF IT! MINERVA IS NOT LETTING THOSE TITLES GO WITHOUT A FIGHT! MINERVA SEEMS LANCE BLACKFYRE ALMOST GETTING TO HIS FEET, BUT MINERVA GETS LUCAS BACK TO HIS FEET BEFORE BATTERY RAMMING THE EMPEROR TO THE OMEN OF DESTRUCTION! The referee is trying to get back control of the match! He gets Minerva back to his corner! Meanwhile, Constance has used this time to recover! The referee gets Lucas back to his corner, leaving the legal competitors, Constance and Lance back into the ring! Lucas is demanding to be let in the match! Lance tags in The Emperor back into the match! It would be great for Constance to tag Minerva, but we’ll see how Constance is holding up!
Deadprez: Constance Blevins is up to her feet as she and Lucas Johnson are circling around each other, looking for an opening! Lucas finds his open, but Constance manages to get Lucas by his arm and connect with a twisting wrist lock!

Eve: COMPLETE BULLSHIT!!! LANCE BLACKFYRE DELIVERS A BIG BOOT TO MINERVA AND TAKES HER DOWN!!!!!!
Referee: THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!
….
….
….
Eve: … Are you kidding me? :skip:
Deadprez: :skip:
Gavin Kirkland: CONSTANCE BLEVINS CLUTCHES ONTO THE BOTTOM ROPE!!!! THE REFEREE IS WAVING OFF THE COUNT!!!! THIS IS WONDERFUL RING AWARENESS FROM THE UNIFIED TAG TEAM CHAMPION!!!!! I AM SO HARD RIGHT NOW!!!!!
Eve: Was that necessary to know???
Deadprez: LUCAS JOHNSON HAS A SHOCKED LOOK ON HIS FACE AS HE LOOKS AT CONSTANCE BLEVINS’ HAND ON THE BOTTOM ROPE! RAVEN ROBERTS IS LOOKING A BIT SURPRISED WHAT CONSTANCE WAS ABLE TO CLUTCH ONTO THE BOTTOM ROPE!!! LUCAS BELIEVES THAT HE AND LANCE BLACKFYRE SHOULD BE CHAMPIONS! LUCAS IS SLAMMING HIS HANDS AGAINST THE MAT IN FRUSTRATION! HE IS DOING EVERYTHING TO CONTAIN HIS ANGER! HE CAN’T GET FRUSTRATED AT THIS POINT IN THE MATCH! HE JUST NEEDS TO PUT DOWN CONSTANCE FOR THE THREE COUNT!
Lord Hitchman (off-mic): My Emperor, there’s only one thing to do…
Gavin, Eve and Deadprez: :lupe:
Lord Hitchman (off-mic): OFF WITH THE BITCH’S HEAD!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Is he going to execute Constance Blevins? She has a title match next weekend! Killing her off is not going to do her favors! :lupe: Lucas Johnson has a sinister look on his face! The challenger gets the champion and it seems like he’s going for The Machine Break — Kimura Lock on Constance Blevins! Not necessary going to rip off her head, but he’s going to break her arm, which is not going to look good going into Wicked Games!
Eve: NOOOOOOOO!!!! CONSTANCE BLEVINS IS NOT ALLOWING FOR LUCAS JOHNSON TO LOCK IN THE MACHINE BREAK! CONSTANCE IS AWARE OF HOW MUCH TROUBLE THAT MOVE CAN BE WHEN IT’S APPLIED! CONSTANCE IS TRYING TO SQUIRM HER WAY OUT OF THE MOVE! LUCAS IS USING HIS FIST AND PUNCHING THE BACK OF CONSTANCE’S HEAD! THE EMPEROR IS TRYING TO KNOCK CONSTANCE OUT WITH THOSE PUNCHES! LUCAS LOCKS IN THE MACHINE BREAK! CONSTANCE IS IN TROUBLE! CONSTANCE IS TRYING TO RAISE HERSELF UP! IT SEEMS LIKE THOSE PUNCHES FROM LUCAS WERE NOT ENOUGH TO KEEP THE CHAMPION DOWN! LUCAS IS TRYING NOT TO LET THAT KIMURA LOCK SLIP AWAY FROM HIM!
Deadprez: It seems like Constance Blevins has stopped moving around! It looks like he doesn’t want to end the match there, so he’s going to check on her to see if she’s still alive! THE REFEREE GETS CONSTANCE BY HER ARM AND RAISES IT UP! THE ARM DROPS DOWN! IF CONSTANCE BLEVINS’ ARM DROPS TWO MORE TIMES, THIS MATCH IS DONE! MINERVA IS STILL DOWN FROM THE BIG BOOT! THE REFEREE RAISES CONSTANCE’S ARM AGAIN BEFORE IT DROPS DOWN!
Gavin Kirkland: I’M NOT SURE IF CONSTANCE BLEVINS WILL BE ABLE TO RESPOND IN TIME! THE REFEREE RAISES CONSTANCE’S ARM FOR A TIME AND RELEASES IT!!!
Eve: MINERVA JUMPS ON LUCAS JOHNSON AND BREAKS UP THE KIMURA LOCK!!! MINERVA WITH A SAVE ONCE AGAIN!!! THIS MATCH STILL CONTINUES!!! Minerva takes Constance over to her corner before tagging herself back into the match!
**TAG!**
Deadprez: Minerva could have not made that save at a better time! If Constance Blevins’ arm managed to drop, it would be the end of Heavenly Hell’s five-month championship reign! Minerva steps inside the ring as Lucas Johnson tags in Lance Blackfyre into the match! Minerva seems fired up at this point in the match! Minerva charges right toward Lance with some stiff and fiery punches to the chest!

Minerva manages to take down Lance! Minerva is back to her feet as she manages to take down Lance with a dropkick to the ribs! Lance falls to his knee! Minerva takes a few steps back as Lance begins to slowly get back to a vertical base, but Minerva puts a stop to that and connects with a scissors kick to Lance! LANCE IS TAKEN DOWN AS MINERVA GOES FOR THE COVER! MINERVA IS GOING TO RETAIN THE TITLES FOR HEAVENLY HELL!!!
Referee: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE!!!! TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Deadprez: LANCE BLACKFYRE MANAGES TO SHOVE MINERVA OFF OF HIM! MINERVA GOES RIGHT AFTER LANCE AND BEGINS TO GAUGE HIS EYE AGAIN! THE REFEREE IS YELLING AT MINERVA ABOUT THE ILLEGAL MOVE! If Minerva gets her team disqualified, she still retains the titles! The champions have that advantage going into the match! Lucas steps inside the ring as the referee goes over to get him back on the apron!
Gavin Kirkland: CONSTANCE BLEVINS RUNS OVER TO LUCAS JOHNSON AND PULLS HIM BY HIS LEGS! LUCAS’ FOREHEAD GOES CRASHING ON THE EDGE OF THE APRON! HE FALLS BACK AS CONSTANCE PROCEEDS TO BEAT THE LIVING HELL OUT OF THE CHALLENGER!
(Constance Blevins looks Raven Robert’s way.)
Constance Blevins (off-mic): WATCH THIS!!
Gavin Kirkland: CONSTANCE BLEVINS GETS LUCAS JOHNSON BY HIS HEAD AND THROWS HIM HEAD FIRST AGAINST THE STEEP STEPS! CONSTANCE RUNS TOWARDS LUCAS BEFORE CONNECTING WITH A DEADLY KNEE STRIKE ON THE EMPEROR —
Eve: NO! ALBERT HITCHMAN MANAGES TO STAND IN FRONT OF CONSTANCE BLEVINS! ALBERT IS TRYING TO PROTECT HIS CLIENT AS CONSTANCE STOPS IN HER TRACKS! ALBERT IS PLEADING FOR CONSTANCE TO SHOW HIM MERCY! SHOW MERCY FOR LUCAS JOHNSON! CONSTANCE IS LOOKING AT THE SHOWDOWN FANS AS THEY ARE SHAKING THEIR HEADS NO!
Deadprez: CONSTANCE BLEVINS WITH A ROUNDHOUSE KICK AS SHE DROPS ALBERT HITCHMAN! ALBERT FALLS BACK ONTO LUCAS JOHNSON!!!
Gavin Kirkland: CONSTANCE BLEVINS TAKES A COUPLE STEPS BACK BEFORE RUNNING!!! KNEE STRIKE ONTO ALBERT HITCHMAN!! MEANWHILE, WITH ALBERT FALLING BACK, LUCAS JOHNSON’S HEAD COLLIDES WITH THE STEEL STEPS! Constance Blevins goes back to her corner! Heavenly Hell are alone in the ring with Lance Blackfyre! Minerva tags Constance Blevins back into the match! Constance stands on the top rope before connecting with a double foot stomp on the Omen of Destruction! Constance goes for the cover!!!
Referee: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE!!!
Eve: LANCE BLACKFYRE MANAGES TO MOVE CONSTANCE BLEVINS OFF OF HIM SOMEHOW! LANCE IS STILL IN THIS MATCH AS CONSTANCE BEGINS TO DELIVER SOME HARSH KNEE STRIKES ONTO LANCE’S EYE! IT SEEMED LIKE CONSTANCE IS GOING TO DO WHAT WORKED WITH MINERVA EARLIER IN THE MATCH AND THAT WAS BLIND LANCE ENOUGH TO WEAKEN HIM! The more that I’m looking in Lance’s left eye, the more you can see it swelling up! Minerva was anything, but nice to that eye of Lance’s! I’m wondering what’s the approach that Heavenly Hell will take to end this match! These women can’t go for any of their finishers because they can’t lift Lance without injuring themselves!
Deadprez: It seems like we’re going for a move that we barely see Constance Blevins going for — CTO!!! CONSTANCE TAP OUT!!! THE GOGOPLATA ON LANCE BLACKFYRE!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: LANCE BLACKFYRE MANAGES TO LIFT CONSTANCE BLEVINS UP IN THE AIR!!!!
Eve: MINERVA WITH A CHOP BLOCK TO THE BACK OF LANCE BLACKFYRE’S LEG!!! LANCE DROPS DOWN AS CONSTANCE FULLY APPLIES THE CTO!!!!! LANCE IS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE RING!!!!
Deadprez: LUCAS JOHNSON IS TRYING TO GET HIMSELF BACK INSIDE THE RING!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: MINERVA WITH A KNEE STRIKE THAT SENDS LUCAS JOHNSON BACK TO THE OUTSIDE!!!!
Eve: Minerva is standing watch incase Lucas Johnson or Albert Hitchman try to get themselves involved in the match! CONSTANCE BLEVINS IS YELLING FOR LANCE BLACKFYRE TO SUBMIT! IT SEEMS LIKE LANCE’S FACE IS GOING PURPLE AS HE’S CLOSING HIS EYES!! THE REFEREE RAISES LANCE’S ARM ONCE BEFORE DROPPING IT DOWN! THAT’S ONE! THE REFEREE GETS LANCE’S ARM AND RAISES IT UP AGAIN BEFORE DROPPING IT DOWN! THAT’S TWO! ONE MORE TIME AND THIS MATCH IS OVER! THE REFEREE RAISES LANCE’S ARM FOR A THIRD TIME!! :lupe:
Deadprez: :lupe:
Gavin Kirkland: :lupe:
Crowd: :lupe:
Eve: LANCE BLACKFYRE’S ARM DROPS FOR A THIRD TIME!!! THE REFEREE CALLS FOR THE BELL!!!!
(DING! DING! DING!)
(“No More” blasts through the speakers as Constance Blevins releases the hold from Lance Blackfyre. Minerva helps Constance back to her feet as Heavenly Hell embrace each other. The referee hands them their titles as the champions raise them proudly.)
Gina Romano: THE WINNER OF THIS MATCH…VIA KNOCKOUT…AND STILL ELITE ANSWERS WRESTLING UNIFIED TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS…HEAAAVVVVEEEEENNNNNLLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYYYY HEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!
Deadprez: What an excellent championship defense for Heavenly Hell! Things seemed unclear at times for the champions! From factors such as Lance Blackfyre to Albert Hitchman and Lucas Johnson, it seems unclear if Heavenly Hell were going to pull this entire thing off!
Gavin Kirkland: My goth queens pull this off!!!! :blessed: :blessed: :blessed: If this isn’t enough proof that Heavenly Hell are not the team to beat. Not only on Showdown, but this entire company, I’m not sure what is! Lance Blackfyre and Lucas Johnson put out an amazing performance! Lucas showed that he took a different approach with this match and I look forward to see him carry on with the approach!
(The camera pans to ring side to a frustrated Lucas Johnson. Albert Hitchman tries to help his client back to his feet, but Lucas shoves him out of the way. Lance Blackfyre is still out cold from the CTO, but when he wakes up, he won’t be in a happy mood.)
Eve: Lance Blackfyre looked unfuckingstoppable in this match! He seemed to be the one that turned the tide of the matches whenever he made his presence know, but Heavenly Hell came into this match with something to prove and that they should be the team to beat! They should be the team that everyone’s gunning to take down!
Deadprez: If I were the other teams, I would be afraid of them! Congratulations to Heavenly Hell on a successful title defense!
(The camera goes to Constance Blevins looking at Raven Roberts from inside the ring. Raven Roberts stands up from the chair that she sat in and raises the Universal Women’s Championship above her head. Constance raises the Unified Tag Team Championship high in the air. The crowd roars in anticipation for the match.)
Gavim Kirkland: If I were Raven Roberts, I wouldn’t like her chances because if Constance Blevins pulls out the performance she did tonight, that Universal Women’s Championship is coming to Showdown.
(Constance Blevins takes her sights off Raven Roberts to resume her celebration. The last shot is of Heavenly Hell raising their championships highly in the air.)
(Commercial promoting Wicked Games! Voltage’s Raven Roberts defends the Universal Women’s Championship against Showdown’s Constance Blevins next weekend on the EAW Network!)
(Reasonable Doubt returns from commercial break.)
Gavin Kirkland (in the background): This is going to be a good one, Eve and Deadprez! In probably one of the toughtest first title defenses, champion Jake Smith looks to defend his title against former champion Mark Michaels and The Saint of Death, Santo Muerte! Let’s check out how this entire match came together.
( ***VIDEO PACKAGE:*** It begins with Mark Michaels in the middle of the ring after his title defense at Territorial Invasion. He calls out anyone from the back to challenge him at Battle of Egypt. A newly traded Jake Smith happens to answer the call as the two men get in a heated exchange of words, which result in them clashing. Before Jake can connect with his finisher, Mark escapes the ring and makes his way up the ramp. It goes to the go-home show with Jake facing Shane Gates with Mark on commentary. Jake end up getting the victory, but Mark blindsides Jake with an attack before getting a microphone and claiming that Jake will always be the bridesmaid and never the bride. It goes forward to a video promo for Santo Muerte and what he has been doing with his absence, claiming that this was a way to shut him up and not get El Rey’s message out in the open. He claims that no one can escape death. No Gawd or Ace can escape death and whoever he crosses path won’t be able to escape it either.)
( ***VIDEO PACKAGE CONTINUES:*** It pans to Battle of Egypt as highlights of the match before fast forwarding to the two Elitists on the apron. Jake connects with Last Resort before rolling Mark back into the ring and getting the huge win. It pans to the huge celebration with Drake King, Jessica Miller and Sierra Bradford all celebrating in the ring with him. It goes forward to Showdown with Jake being interviewed by Kyra Phillips. Jake does the interview before being stopped by Santo Muerte who tells him that even the Mightiest ones can’t escape death before looking at Sierra and saying that death doesn’t discriminate either. Static appears on the screen before panning to Mark in the production room. He talks about Battle of Egypt and vows to get his rematch. Security rushes to escort him out of the room, but Mark fights back. More security comes in as Mark manages to fight them back. Eventually, police from the cruise ship appears before arresting Mark.)
(** VIDEO PACKAGE CONTINUES AGAIN:** It goes forward to Mark trying to get into the arena, but security isn’t letting him. Jenny Punk is behind the security as Mark tries to demand for a rematch, but Jenny says no. Mark lets Jenny know that he doesn’t take no for an answer. It goes to the PURE rules match with Jake Smith and Santo Muerte. Mark attacks Santo, causing a disqualification for Mark. Mark proceeds to attack Jake before it gets chaotic out there with the three men brawling. Security comes to seperate these men, but the three Elitists being held back, try to fight them off, but the security becomes enough for them. Jenny Punk comes out and still denies Mark his rematch, but Jake insists on facing Mark and shutting him up once and for all. Eventually, Jenny agrees to the idea and makes the match official, but since Santo won the match by disqualification and if the match was for the title, Santo would be champion, so he gets himself into the match. The video package ends with the three men staring down each other.)
(The camera pans to Gina Romano in the ring.)
Gina Romano: LADIES AND GENTLEMAN THE FOLLOWING CONTEST IS A TRIPLE THREAT MATCH SET FOR ONE FALL!
Crowd: ONE FALL!!!
Gina Romano: AND IT CONTESTED UNDER PURE RULES….FOR THE EAW PURE CHAMPIONSHIP!!!!!!!!
(“Just Cos You Got The Power” by Motorhead hits as Mark Michaels comes out to overwhelming boos.)
Gina Romano: INTRODUCING FIRST…..FROM MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA…..WEIGHING IN AT TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY POUNDS…..”THE LETHAL INJECTION”….MMMAARRRKKK MMMMIICCHHHAAEEELLLSSSS!!!!!
Eve: Could you imagine if he won the PURE Title again? His first reign was a nightmare to get through. I can’t imagine a second reign.
Deadprez: Despite how you feel about him, he deserved this rematch because he was PURE Champion for four months for a reason. Because he’s dangerous and both of his opponents know that already. If he wins the championship back, you may not like it, but you will deal with it.
(“War” by Dance With The Dead replaces Motorhead and Santo Muerte comes out to almost silence from the crowd. )
Gina Romano: MAKING HIS WAY TO THE RING…..FROM DEATH VALLEY, CALIFORNIA……WEIGHING IN AT TWO HUNDRED AND POUNDS….”THE SAINT OF DEATH”…..SSAANNTTTOOO MMUUERRTTEE!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Could you imagine this guy as champ?
Eve: Sure why not? He’s an amazing talent and in my opinion one of Showdown’s fastest rising stars. He has an amazing opportunity tonight and he is more than capable of getting the job done. He’s made quite the impact since arriving and I can’t wait to see if he can capture his first championship in the Land Of Elite tonight!
(“Toxic Valentine” by All Time Low hits as Jake Smith comes out wearing the PURE Championship around his waist to a mixed reaction from the Las Vegas crowd,)
Gina Romano: AND FINALLY….FROM VENICE, CALIFORNIA…..WEIGHING IN AT TWO HUNDRED AND TEN POUNDS…..”THE MIGHTIEST ONE”….HE IS THE REIGNING EAW PURE CHAMPION……JJJAAAKKKEEE SSMMITTTHH!!!!
Deadprez: Here comes the champ! He’s not facing the best odds tonight but no excuses for him. He came to Showdown and right awya made the biggest impact by finally dethroning the hated reign of Mark Michaels. This is his first defense tonight and you know he’s gonna do whatever it takes to walk away still the PURE Champion.
(PURE Championship graphic flashes across the screen.)
(All three men are in a corner as Jake Smith hands the PURE Championship to the referee. The referee holds the PURE Championship high in the air before checking for weapons on the competitors.)
(Ding! Ding! Ding!)
Eve: AND THIS IS UNDERWAY! Again, if you’re a bit confused on PURE Rules in a triple threat match, they’re pretty much the same as the traditional one on one. Each competitor gets three rope breaks from submissions or pins. After they’re used up, the ropes can’t save you anymore. No closed fist punches, and if you’re caught, you get a warning, then you get penalized a rope break if you’re caught a second time. A third and you’re out of here. The twist with three people is if you’re caught bringing a weapon in or doing anything considered illegal, there is no warning, you’re gone and it’s a one on one matchup!
Deadprez: All three men are in the center of the ring. Mark and Jake are just staring a hole through one another with Santo in the background. WOAH JAKE TURNS AND SUPERKICKS SANTO!
Gavin Kirkland: :woah: Santo rolls out of the ring and Mark takes this chance and jumps at Jake backing Jack up to the corner and is throwing haymakers at Jake’s back and Jake is trying to get away! These two wanna tear each other apart! The referee steps in and is able to get some separation between the two. But only for a second as Mark goes back on the attack but Jake with the drop toe hold and Mark goes face first into the second turnbuckle! AND JAKE SLAPS THE BACK OF MARK’S HEAD AS HARD AS HE CAN!
Jake Smith (Without a mic): THIS IS MY-
Deadprez: Santo with a running backstabber to Jake! He popped in the frame out of nowhere! Santo picks up Jake and wraps his arm around Jake’s waist…GERMAN SUPLEX TO JAKE! Jake flew halfway across the ring and now Mark is back up and charges at Santo but Santo saw him coming and catches Mark’s arm! Santo hooks the right leg of Mark…suplex across the ring! Mark is back up quickly here and Santo hits a roundhouse kick to Mark driving Mark full speed colliding into Jake in the corner! Santo backs up….He runs with full speed and leaps high in the air….THE SPLASH CONNECTS ON BOTH JAKE AND MARK IN THE CORNER!
Eve: Santo throws Mark back to the center of the ring and then throws a vicious knee to the downed Jake Smith causing Jake to stumble through the bottom rope to the outside floor! Santo turns around sees Mark vulnerable. Santo steps to Mark and grabs him by the hair, but Mark throws a hard elbow to the face of Santo buying Mark a few valuable seconds! Mark is up and grabs Santo by the head and….Snapmare Driver! He spikes Santo’s head into the mat and now he goes for the cover!
OOONNNEEE…
TWWWOOO….
Gavin Kirkland: Santo kick out of it! Mark wasting no time as he picks up Santo and places him on the rope. Mark irish whips Santo and Santo reverses it sending Mark into the ropes and Santo with strength lifts Mark high in the air and—SUPERKICK IN MID AIR FROM JAKE SMITH!!! WHAT IN THE FUCK?! Santo turns around and seems shocked as he looks at Jake Smith!
Eve: I think Santo was expecting Mark to land on the top rope coming down. Santo attempts to clothesline Jake but Jake ducks underneath and hits a chop to Santo’s chest! These are legal as Jake does it again! Jake kicks Santo in the midsection and throws Santo’s arm over his head going for a suplex but Santo is trying to block it! Santo is throwing body shots trying to get Jake to let go but Jake isn’t budging! Jake eventually lifts Santo high in the air….BUT SANTO REVERSES IT INTO A TORNADO DDT! SANTO COVERS JAKE!
ONNNEEE…
TTWWOOO…..
Deadprez: Jake stays alive! Santo now stands up and looks down at Jake lying on the mat! Santo slowly picks up Jake but Jake pushes Santo away in desperation And Santo retaliates with a hard right hand to the face of Jake! WOAH REMEMBER HE CAN’T DO THAT! THE REFEREE IS IN SANTO’S FACE WARNING HIM ON THE CLOSED FIST PUNCHES! Santo got a bit frustrated there or something and he goes right back on the offense picking up Jake and places Jake between his legs in a powerbomb position but Jake counters it with a back body drop! Mark Michaels is stirring on the apron trying to lift himself up with the ropes still dazed from the superkick in mid air earlier in the matchup as Jake and Santo don’t even seems to notice him. Jake picks up Santo with urgency and grabs his head and runs and throws him but Santo reverses it and throws Jake full speed into Mark on the apron causing Mark to hit face first on the barricade! Jake turns around and Santo clotheslines Jake over the top rope to the floor! Santo is feeling pumped up here! Jake and Mark stands up against each other on the outside and SANTO RUNS WITH A FULL HEAD OF STEAM TO THE ROPES AND LEAPS TO THE OUTSIDE—TOPE CON HILO!!! TOPE CON HILO ON BOTH MARK AND JAKE ON THE OUTSIDE!
(Instant replay of the Tope Con Hilo.)
Eve: Santo is up and he’s fired up! He chooses Mark as he lifts Mark up and throws him in the ring. Santo steps up on the apron He leaps through the middle rope looking for another tornado DDT on Mark! But Mark is holding up Santo in the air! Mark throws Santo stomach first on the top rope! Santo is now just hanging there! Mark with a kick right to the face of the dangling Santo and Santo crashes to the floor! Did you hear that?! Mark now looking down at Santo from inside the ring BUT LOOK OUT!! JAKE PUSHES MARK TO THE ROPE!! THE ROLLUP!!
OONNNEE….
TTTWWOOO…..
TTTHHREEEE….
Gavin Kirkland: BUT MARK REVERSES IT INTO A PIN OF HIS OWN!! HE HAS THE TIGHTS!
ONNNEEE…
TTWWWOO…
TTTHHRREEEE…..
Eve: BUT JAKE STILL MANAGES TO KICK OUT! BOTH MEN ARE UP AND RUN RIGHT INTO A DOUBLE CLOTHESLINE! Both men are down in the ring and Santo is down on the outside. Both men are stirring to their feet and it’s a race to who gets to their feet first and Mark was a tad bit quicker as he charges at Jake but Jake reverses and turns it into a backslide pin! But Mark rolls through it and kicks the seated Jake right in his face! Mark now grabs both of Jake’s legs—FIGURE FOUR LEG LOCK IS LOCKED IN!! JAKE IS SCREAMING IN AGONY! HE’S IN THE DEAD CENTER OF THE RING! JAKE MANAGES TO FLIP MARK ON HIS STOMACH AND REVERSE THE PRESSURE! MARK IS NOW THE ONE IN PAIN! BUT MARK MANAGES TO REVERSE IT BACK AND JAKE HAS NOWHERE TO GO!! HE MAY HAVE TO TAP HERE!
Deadprez: SANTO FLIES IN WITH A FROG SPLASH RIGHT ON TOP OF MARK MICHAELS BREAKING UP THE FIGURE FOUR!! THE COVER!
OOONNEEE….
TTTWWWOO….
TTTHHREEE!!!
Eve: MARK GETS THE SHOULDER UP!! SANTO MAY HAVE JUST SAVED JAKE’S CHAMPIONSHIP RIGHT THERE!
Gavin Kirkland: Jake is now on the apron holding his calf from the figure four and Santo now looking at both of his opponents and he seems to be measuring Mark! Mark is stirring to his feet and Santo is dying for Mark to turn around! Kick to the midsection…looking for perhaps the Death Note!! He has him up….but Mark transitions it into a arm drag! But Santo is up right away and he comes right for Mark but Mark back body drops Santo to the outside floor but Santo held on to the rope and Mark doesn’t know it! Mark turns around walks right into a jumping elbow from Santo! Santo might be setting up for something here but WOAH JAKE CHARGES AT MARK IN THE RING BUT MARK SIDESTEPS IT AND JAKE SPEARS SANTO OFF THE APRON! BUT MARK TURNS JAKE SMITH AROUND! SPINEBUSTER!!! JAKE SMITH’S HEAD HITS HARD ON THE CANVAS!
Deadprez: MARK IS UP AND CIRCLING THE RING MAKING SURE SANTO AIN’T A FACTOR! HE TURNS HIS ATTENTION TO JAKE AGAIN!! DOWNFALL!!!!—BUT JAKE CAUGHT MARK ON HIS SHOULDERS! LOOK! MARK WITH THE EYE RAKE BUT THE REFEREE NEVER SAW IT AS HE WAS ON THE BLIND SIDE OF IT!! MARK CHOPS BLOCKS THE BACK OF JAKE’S LEG!—DOWNFALL CONNECTS!!! THE CURBSTOMP CONNECTS ON MARK!! IT’S OVER!
OOONNNEEEE!!
TTTWWWOOOO!!
TTTHHHRREEEE!!!!
Eve: JAKE KICKS OUT!! AND MARK CANNOT BELIEVE IT! THE CROWD LOVED IT AS THEY DON’T HAVE TO ENDURE MARK AS PURE CHAMPION ONCE AGAIN AT LEAST FOR NOW!
Gavin Kirkland: Mark is sitting thinking about what to do next. He may have just took his best shot right there. MARK NOW GRABS JAKE BY HIS HAIR!
Mark Michaels (No mic): STAY DOWN YOU STUPID FUCKING-
Eve: OH NO!! SANTO MUERTE RUNS UP BEHIND MARK! GERMAN SUPLEX!! MARK IS PULLING HIMSELF UP IN THE CORNER AND SANTO WITH A FULL HEAD OF STEAM RUNS AND HITS THE RUNNING DROPKICK IN THE CORNER TO MARK! SANTO HAS ALL THE MOMENTUM HERE AS HE RUNS TO THE ROPES AND CONNECTS WITH THE SLINGBLADE ON MARK!! SANTO NOW GRABS MARK’S RIGHT ARM AND FLINGS MARK’S ENTIRE BODY OVER HIS BACK ON THE GROUND AND SANTO HAS MARK’S ARM UP! MARK IS BEGGING PRETTY MUCH FOR HIS CAREER HERE! THE DEADLY MOVE THE OFFERING SANTO IS ABOUT TO APPLY! SANTO MUERTE IS ABOUT TO BECOME THE NEW PURE CHAMPION!!
Deadprez: BUT LOOK!!—JAKE SMITH ON THE OUTSIDE!! HE’S REACHING IN AND GRABBING MARK’S FREE HAND! HE PLACES MARK’S HAND ON THE ROPE!! GENIUS MOVE FROM THE CHAMPION AS HE JUST SAVED HIS PURE CHAMPIONSHIP RIGHT THERE! It’s a double win for Jake there because not only did he save his title but that counts as one of Mark’s three rope breaks in this match! Santo lets go in the ring and Jake pulls out Mark to the outside and throws Mark back first into the barricade! JAKE TURNS AROUND AND SANTO IS LOOKING FOR TOPE CON HILO AGAIN!! BUT JAKE MOVES OUT OF THE WAY!! NOBODY HOME AND SANTO JUST CRASHED AND BURNED ON THE OUTSIDE! Santo is holding his back in extreme pain as Jake is sitting on the ground reflecting on what just happened!
Gavin Kirkland: Jake Smith picks up Santo and throws him in the ring and Santo is still in lots of pain from the hard landing on his back just a moment ago! Jake is setting up Santo…..RIDE TO HELL!!! BUT SANTO TWIRLS OUT OF IT FROM PURE DESPERATION AND THROWS A VICIOUS HEADBUTT AT JAKE SMITH!—BUT JAKE SMITH RETALIATES CONNECTING WITH A SUPERKICK! SANTO IS ON SPAGHETTI LEGS HERE NOW!!! JAKE SMITH WITH ANOTHER SUPERKICK! JAKE RIGHT AWAY FOLLOWS UP WITH A RIDE TO HELL!! THE BUTTERFLY FLOATING DDT!! JAKE COVERS SANTO!! SANTO’S OUT!!!
OOONNEEE!!!
TTTWWOOOO!!!!
TTTHHRREEEE!!!!
Deadprez: WHAT THE HELL?!?!
Eve: MARK MICHAELS JUST JUMPED ON THE REFEREE!!! HE HITS THE REFEREE IN THE BACK OF HIS HEAD A FEW TIMES! WHAT IN THE HELL DID HE JUST DO?!?!
Gavin Kirkland: MARK WAS TOO FAR FROM STOPPING THE COUNT SO HE DID WHAT HE HAD TO DO TO SAVE THE MATCH FOR HIMSELF!
(Mark gives an evil smirk over to the shocked Jake Smith.)
Deadprez: AND JAKE SMITH OUT OF ANGER CHASES MARK OUT OF THE RING AND THEY ARE GOING IN CIRCLES AS MARK FINALLY GOES IN THE RING AND JAKE FOLLOWS SUIT—LOW BLOW FROM MARK TO JAKE!!
Eve: WHAT A DISGUSTING ACT BY THIS MAN! COULD YOU IMAGINE THE HORROR OF ANOTHER PURE REIGN FROM HIM?!
Gavin Kirkland: Well it looks like we’re headed that way! The referee is still down holding the back of his head! Mark kicks Santo out of the ring and then exits the ring right after. Mark picks up Santo and tosses him right over the Spanish announce desk!! Mark has a sadistic smile on his face as he grabs a steel chair from ringside! He slides in the ring with it and he slams it on the mat getting ready to use it on Jake! The referee is awakening though! Mark notices this as both Jake and the referee are rising to their feet! Mark looks at both of them back and forth!—OH MY GOD HE’S GONNA HIT THEM BOTH!!!
(Mark Michaels tosses the chair to Jake Smith and drops down to the mat.)
Eve: WHAT IN THE FUCK?!?! HE JUST TOSSED IT TO JAKE AND THE REFEREE HAS JUST TURNED AROUND AND SEES JAKE SMITH WITH THE CHAIR IN HIS HAND WITH MARK AT HIS FEET!! NO!!!!
Deadprez: JAKE IS BEGGING THE REFEREE AS THE REFEREE SEEMS CONFUSED ON WHAT TO DO!! REMEMBER IF YOU GET CAUGHT TRYING TO BREAK THE PURE RULES IN A TRIPLE THREAT MATCH, YOU’RE THROWN OUT AND DISQUALIFIED FROM THE MATCH! JAKE’S GONNA LOSE THE PURE CHAMPIONSHIP RIGHT NOW!!!

SANTO NOT WASTING ANY TIME AS HE LIFTS JAKE UP AND THROWS HIM SHOULDER FIRST INTO THE RING POST IN THE CORNER! SANTO HAS JUST TAKEN JAKE SMITH OUT OF THE EQUATION! HE PICKS UP MARK!!—DEATH NOTE!!!!!!! THE PUMPHANDLE HALF NELSON DRIVER HAS CONNECTED!!! WE’RE GONNA HAVE A NEW CHAMPION!!!
OOONNEEEE!!!!
TTTWWWOOO!!!!
TTTHHRREEEEEEE!!!!!
Deadprez: NEW PURE CHAMPION!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: NO!!!!! MARK GETS THE SHOULDER UP AT THE LAST POSSIBLE SECOND!!!
Eve: SANTO IS IN DISBELIEF HERE! HOW IN THE EVER LOVING HELL DID MARK KICK OUT OF THAT!?! SANTO IS UP NOW AND PICKS MARK UP AND NOW DRAGS MARK TO THE CORNER AND LIFTS HIM UP TO THE TOP ROPE! SANTO IS GOING UP HIGH WITH MARK HERE AND WHAT THE HELL DOES HE HAVE PLANNED?!—OH MY GOD!! HE’S TRYING THE DEATH NOTE UP FROM THE TOP! HE’S MAKING SURE HE WINS THIS MATCH AND THE PURE TITLE! MARK IS THROWING ELBOWS IN DESPERATION TRYING TO SAVE NOT ONLY THE MATCH BUT HIS CAREER! MARK MANAGES TO FREE THE GRIPS FROM SANTO MUERTE! MARK WITH THE SUNSET FLIP POWERBOMB FROM THE TOP ROPE! BUT NO!! SANTO HELD ON TO THE TURNBUCKLE AND MARK LANDS RIGHT ON HIS ASS! AND OH SHIT FOLLOWING THAT JAKE COMES IN AND HITS A RUNNING DROPKICK TO THE FACE OF THE SEATED MARK MICHAELS! JAKE GETS UP AND WOAH LOOK OUT!!
Deadprez: JAKE SMITH TURNS AROUND AND A FLYING HURRICANRANA FROM SANTO OFF THE TOP ROPE TO JAKE! HE APPROACHES JAKE AND HITS A KICK TO THE MIDSECTION! HE’S LOOKING FOR THE FINAL BREATHE—AND IT CONNECTS! THE PACKAGE PILEDRIVERS CONNECTS TO PERFECTION!! THIS IS SANTO’S MOMENT AS HE GOES FOR THE COVER—BUT WAIT MARK PICKS UP SANTO AND SLIDES HIM FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE RING TO THE OUTSIDE!! HE COVERS JAKE!! HE’S GONNA STEAL THIS!! NO!!

Eve: JAKE KICKS OUT AGAIN!!! HE REFUSES TO LET THAT PURE CHAMPIONSHIP GO!
Gavin Kirkland: WHAT A WAR BETWEEN THESE GUYS! THEY ARE PULLING OUT ALL THE STOPS TO BECOME THE PURE CHAMPION! AND NOW MARK PICKS UP JAKE AND IT LOOKS TO BE ABOUT DEAD WEIGHT AS HE’S HAVING A TOUGH TIME GETTING JAKE OFF THE MAT BUT OH GOD!!—JAKE SLAPS MARK’S HANDS AWAY AND PUSHES HIM BACKWARDS RIGHT INTO A SUPERKICK TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD BY SANTO!! AND JAKE NOW WITH A SUPERKICK RIGHT TO THE FACE OF MARK!!! AND SANTO WITH ANOTHER SUPERKICK TO THE BACK OF MARK’S HEAD!! AND A SUPERKICK FROM JAKE TO MARK’S FACE!!

IT TOOK ALMOST ALL OF WHAT HE HAD LEFT TO DELIVER THAT PARALYZER! JAKE SMITH IS NOW CRAWLING OVER TO THE CORNER AND TRYING TO PULL HIMSELF UP! AND HE DOES!! HE CLIMBS UP VERY GINGERLY TO THE TOP ROPE!! IS THIS SMART AT THIS POINT IN THE MATCH FOR HIM?! HE STANDS HIGH ON THE TOP ROPE BALANCING HIMSELF—CROSSFIRE!!!!!! THE FALCON ARROW CONNECTS!!!!
Deadprez: NO!!!!! SANTO GOT THE KNEES UP!! SANTO TRANSITIONS INTO THE OFFERING ARMBREAKER!!! HE’S GONNA SNAP JAKE’S ARM OFF!!! JAKE IS SCREAMING FOR HIS LIFE RIGHT NOW!!!
Eve: MARK COMES IN AND KNEES SANTO IN THE HEAD!!! HE TAKES A FEW STEPS BACK AND—DOWNFALL!!! THE CURBSTOMP CONNECTS!! MARK TURNS AROUND FOR A SPLIT SECOND AND JAKE IS THERE WAITING FOR HIM!!!!—-BROKEN WINGS!!!! THE SNAP SWINGING NECKBREAKER CONNECTS!!!

TTTTHHRREEEE!!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: SANTO TAKES ONE BIG LEAP!!!!!
(Ding! Ding! Ding!)
(“Toxic Valentine” hits as Santo rolls off of Jake slowly and the referee raises Jake’s hand as he’s sitting on the ground. The referee then awards the exhausted Jake Smith the PURE Championship.)
Gina Romano: HERE IS YOUR WINNER………AND STTTTTTIILLLLLLLL THE EAW PURE CHAMPION…….JJJAAAAAKKEEEE SSSMMIIITTTHHH!!!!
Deadprez: WHAT A MATCH BETWEEN THESE THREE WARRIORS! All of them pulled out all the stops to win the PURE Championship and tonight it was Jake Smith who prevailed and survived to retain his PURE Championship!
Eve: Take nothing away from Santo or Mark though! Santo was literally just half an inch away form breaking up the pinfall! The future is bright for him here on Showdown and this for sure ain’t going to be his last title opportunity! Mark you just have to give credit for his brains here tonight. Despite how we feel about him, this isn’t the end for him either.
(The final shot is Jake Smith holding the PURE Championship high in the air in the center of the ring through the pain.)
(Five minute intermission.)
Eve (in the background): This is one match that I have been waiting for! This rivalry has gotten a little more personal than it needs to be! Four of the most compelling Elitists on this brand clash in tag team action! Will Jamie O’Hara and Cameron Ella Ava prove that The ILLIONAIRES are no match for them? Or will The ILLIONAIRES surprise everyone by getting the victory over two Hall of Famers and justifying their claim to go after the Unified Tag Team Championships? Now, let’s see how this entire thing came together!)
( ***VIDEO PACKAGE:*** It begins with the footage of Showdown General Manager Jenny Punk selecting Jamie O’Hara to be the captain of Team Showdown at Territorial Invasion. The notable thing about the segment was trying to make Jamie #WarGamesReady by placing him in a Steel Cage Match with Lance Blackfyre and Last Man Standing Match against Lucas Johnson. It fast forwards to a newly aligned Chris Elite and Ahren Fournier in the ring, sick about being written off as people who can’t get the job done. The two men are asking for an opportunity to prove themselves and plan to do so by stepping into War Games. Jamie comes out and doubts their capabilities of taking this match seriously. After much convincing by The ILLIONAIRES, Jamie lets them be apart of Team Showdown.
( ***VIDEO PACKAGE CONTINUES:*** It forwards a week after as Jamie faced Voltage’s Raven Roberts and Dynasty’s TLA in a War Games Preview Match. After some assistance by Chris and Ahren, Jamie manages to pick up the victory. It goes to the go-home show, where Team Showdown in action before Territorial Invasion. The three men pick up the victory before fast forwarding to Territorial Invasion. Highlights of Team Showdown’s performance is seen as well as their unsuccessful attempt to bring pride to Showdown. On the Showdown after Territorial Invasion, Jamie comes out and lets it be known that he promised Jenny Punk that he wouldn’t let her down as team captain and their loss falls on his shoulders. Jamie points out that he’s let a few people down as of late. Instead of the crowd turning on Jamie, they show him with adoration, which he believes, he doesn’t deserve. The ILLIONAIRES come out and let Jamie know that they’ve got his back. Despite Territorial Invasion being over, these two claim that they need to be more united than ever.)
( ***VIDEO PACKAGE STILL CONTINUING:*** Jenny Punk comes out and commends Jamie on his efforts as captain of Team Showdown. Her tone completely changes as she tells Jamie that he deserves to be alone in this world. Out of nowhere, Ahren blindsides Jamie with a microphone before him and Chris begin their assault on Jamie. The ILLIONAIRES ends their assault with Put It On Ice as Jenny enters the ring with a huge grin on her face, which confirms that this was a setup operated by her. Jenny blames Jamie for Team Showdown’s loss and claims that The ILLIONAIRES carried him in the match. Jenny calls Jamie an incompetent piece of shit and promises not to lead The ILLIONAIRES to disappointment. It fast forwards to a week later with The ILLIONAIRES in the ring explaining their attack on Jamie from last week. The ILLIONAIRES just drag Jamie’s name through the mud before Jamie comes out to defend himself. This results in Jamie being attacked by The ILLIONAIRES for the second week in a row. It fast forwards to a frustrated Jamie in the locker room. His phone ringing as Cameron Ella Ava is seen FaceTiming. Cameron insists on returning a few weeks earlier, putting her own health to help Jamie out, but Jamie insists that he has the situation under control. He really doesn’t. 😐 )
( ***IT’S STILL FUCKING CONTINUING:*** Two weeks later, Jamie and Chris face off on Showdown. Towards the end of the match, Ahren comes out to cheer his partner on. Before Jamie can capitalize for the victory, Ahren itnerfers and causes a disqualification. The two attack Jamie for a third time before a returning Cameron runs out to even the odds. The two sides brawl throughout the cruise ship before throwing Ahren and Chris into the fucking sea. It forwards to a week later with footage of what happened to Ahren and Chris after last week’s edition. They meet Jenny Punk in the spa resort on the cruise ship as they ask to face Jamie and Cameron at Reasonable Doubt. After a bit of hesitation from the General Manager, she makes the match official. Later in the might, Cameron and Ahren face off, resulting in Cameron getting a victory over Ahren who apparently had his foot on the bottom rope, but the official not catching that at all. The footage ends with The ILLIONAIRES in the ring looking back at the husband-wife duo.)
( It pans back to the ring as”Money and Power” by Kid INK hits. )
( Chris Elite and Ahren Fournier walk out to the stage dressed in matching pink Gopher fur coats, with Ahren carrying Jennipurr in one arm who also is sporting a mini made-for-cats Gopher fur pink coat. They are accompanied by Big Mike who follows them down to the ring from behind. )
( DING! DING! DING! )
Gina Romano: The following tag team contest is scheduled for ONE FALL!!!! Introducing first, accompanied by BIG MIKE and JENNIPURR, weighing in at a combined weight of 420 POOOUUNNNDSSS!!! THE TEAM OF AHREN FOURNIER AND CHRIS ELITE!!! THEYYYY ARRREEEE ILLLLLLIIIOONAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIRRRREEESSSSSSSS!!!!
Deadprez: Two storied EAW careers joining as one tandem, now compete in their first official tag team Marquee contest. And man is their confidence at an all time high!
Gavin Kirkland: When you’re as talented and resourceful as both of these two former World Champions are, I’m sure it warrants confidence among many other attributes! If you ask me, we’re looking at two future Hall of Famers barring catastrophe, but add in the personal endorsement of Showdown General Manager Jenny Punk and you basically have a tag team with the world as their oyster!
Eve: Well Illionaires have taken their newfound confidence awfully far; and in doing so they’ve made sure not only to alienate themselves from the rest of the Showdown roster, but put themselves in an adverse situation with another tandem who are already EAW Hall of Famers, who are already familiar with championship gold. It’s been a chaotic thrillride over the past number of weeks, but the antics need to amount to a real tangible victory for ILLIONAIRES – and considering their opponents that is way easier said than done!
( Ahren Fournier places Jennipurr on the announce table. Gavin Kirkland reaches for Jennipurr to hold her, but she squirms out of her grasp and settles in Deadprez’s arms. Gavin hangs his head in shame after being #rejected. ILLIONAIRES theme music dies down and Big Mike is talking the two athletes up from ringside, motivating them to keep their head in the game. )
Gavin Kirkland: We got ourselves a belated birthday GOAT by the way! Happy belated to Ahren Fournier who celebrated his 28th birthday yesterday!
( “ULTRANumb” by Blue Stahli hits, and Cameron Ella Ava walks out to the stage with a big smile on her face as she dons a purple and black variation of her ring gear. “ULTRANumb” is replaced by “Ultimate Battle” by ZENTA [EAW Edit] and Jamie O’Hara walks out to the stage dressed in a purple and black variation of his ring gear, showing off synchronicity to his wife. The two walk down the ramp side by side with one another, embracing the audience. )
Gina Romano: And their opponents! Both residing in Los Angeles, California, and weighing in at a combined weight of 320 POOOOUNNNNDSSSSS!!! THE TEAM OF JAAAAMMIIIIEEEEEEEE OOOOO’HARRRRAAAAAAAAAAAA AND CAMMMEROOOOOOOOOON ELLLAAAAAAAA AVVVVAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!
Deadprez: You hear the term “power couple” thrown around loosely but there’s really no other way to describe two of the most decorated Elitists in the history of this company coming together, both in holy matrimony, but also in the squared circle.
Eve: A case can be made that we’re looking at two out of the top five greatest Elitists of all time. But I will play devil’s advocate before Gavin gets a chance to, they have established their legacies in singles competition more than anything. Cameron’s experience in team based accomplishments certainly eclipses her husband’s, but even Cam has spent the majority of her career pulling herself through hurdles. They are going to rely on their trust towards each other more than ever especially against a like minded pairing like ILLIONAIRES who mesh together better than gears in a machine.
( “Ultimate Battle” dies down once Jamie and Cameron are finished showing off for the audience on their respective turnbuckles. The referee gets between both teams, patting each individual down for a weapons check and going over the rules. )
Gavin Kirkland: Well we’re in Vegas tonight, place your bets! Jamie/Cameron or ILLIONAIRES? Personally I go ILLIONAIRES. Look at the stats, Jamie and Cameron NEVER win big matches with each other as partners! They’re Type A personalities just bound to get in each others way somehow!
Eve: The jury’s still out for me, come on let’s not act like Chris Elite and Ahren Fournier aren’t the definition of Type A personalities. This is as much a litmus test for them as it is for Jameron.
( DING! DING! DING! )
Eve: We’re underway, the match begins with Jamie O’Hara circling the ring with Chris Elite. Two men who have a lot of history with each other especially stemming from Season 11 Voltage when they shared the same brand. They enter a collar and elbow tie up which eventually leads way to O’Hara applying a wrist lock. Elite twists his body, reaches back with his free hand and pries apart O’Hara’s grip before wrenching his arm. O’Hara shoulder rolls to the mat, attempts a leg sweep, Elite jumps over it! Low roundhouse by Elite! O’Hara quickly spins like a top to a pushup-like position, and takes Chris Elite down with a drop toe hold! Chris Elite does a front handspring to avoid hitting the mat, and he careens off of the ropes only for O’Hara to catch him halfway across the ring with a LEAPFROG TAKEOVER! No! Elite rolls through it, nips back up to his feet, and goes for a SPRINGBOARD ARMDRAG!!!
Deadprez: JAMIE O’HARA QUICKLY SIDE STEPS IT! ELITE SAW THAT PREEMPTIVELY, AND HE BALANCES HIMSELF ON THE RING ROPES! HE QUICKLY TIGHTROPE SIDE STEPS ON THE ROPES, AND SPRINGS OFF, REDIRECTING HIMSELF WITH A WEST COAST POP IN THE MATTER OF A SPLIT SECOND!!
Eve: AND JAMIE LANDS ON HIS FEET!!!
( Jamie O’Hara turns to Chris Elite and gives him a cheeky smirk while wagging his finger, the fascinated audience claps their hands for that exchange. )
Eve: You forget just how incredible these athletes are and they give you a reminder every single time as to why EAW wrestling is the best wrestling on the planet! Elite and O’Hara close in on each other again, and this time they engage in a Greco roman style knuckle lock, testing each other’s strength… O’Hara’s vice like grip and overbearing strength bodes a little bit too much for Chris Elite to handle apparently. Elite backpedals into his own team corner and extends his hand to his partner Ahren Fournier to tag him in. Fournier and Elite are both in the ring standing across from O’Hara two on one, and Jamie’s loyal companion Cameron Ella Ava steps in as well to even the odds. For a second they all had me fooled into thinking this would be a sportsmanlike, dare I say civil beginning to the match, but all four of them are getting into it now! CHEAP SHOT RIGHT HAND BY AHREN TO JAMIE!
Deadprez: CAM FIRES WITH A RIGHT HAND OF HER OWN! ELITE WITH A KNIFE EDGE CHOP TO CAM! ONE TO JAMIE! ANOTHER TO CAM! Elite sends Ava back into the ropes and Irish whips her into O’Hara! O’Hara catches his wife and gently places her to the side – BOX OFFICE SMASH!!! DUCKED BY O’HARA! PROTECT YA’ NECK!!!! COMBAT ROLL EVASION BY O’HARA, AVOIDING FOURNIER’S CLOTHESLINE FROM HELL! FOURNIER TURNS AROUND – SPRINGBOARD DOUBLE DROPKICK BY AVA WITH EACH BOOT CRASHING INTO THE ILLIONAIRES AND SENDING THEM ROLLING TO THE OUTSIDE! Fournier and Elite scramble back up, Big Mike is calling for the two of them to watch their backs, but O’HARA MAKES THE DIVE TO THE OUTSIDE, CLEARING THE ROPES WITH A HILO!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: FOURNIER AND ELITE JUMP OUT OF THE WAY AT THE LAST SECOND!
Eve: But O’Hara brilliantly catches himself on the apron! AVA SHOOTS HERSELF THROUGH THE ROPES AND SENDS AHREN TO THE FLOOR WITH A SUICIDE DIVE OF HER OWN! ELITE WAS CAUGHT OFF GUARD BY AVA’S ATTACK ON FOURNIER, AND IS UNWITTINGLY HIT RIGHT IN THE FACE WITH A PENALTY KICK FROM THE APRON COURTESY OF O’HARA!!! Ava sends Elite rolling back into the ring, Elite scrambles back up, and he’s sent CRASHING INTO THE TURNBUCKLE WITH A JOHN WOO DROPKICK! HE HITS THE CORNER HARD KIDNEYS FIRST, ROLLING RIGHT INTO POSITION IN THE DROP ZONE WHILE O’HARA MAKES THE HASTY CLIMB TO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE… O’HARA IS PREPARED TO END THIS ALREADY! GENKI CANNON!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: NOT SO FAST! Chris Elite tumbles out of the way just before the diving double foot stomp can connect! O’Hara lands on the mat and rolls through to shield the landing, while Elite scrambles to a corner with his eyes wide open. He is not happy about how close he came to defeat just now, but O’Hara is challenging him to continue the fight with the come hither motion. Elite deliberates over it…… and he marches over to his corner to tag in Ahren Fournier :unamused: so much for that.
Gavin Kirkland: Fournier springs over the ropes and rushes in for the action with a wild right hand! Matrix evasion by O’Hara, STIFF SHOOT KICK TO THE HAMSTRING BY O’HARA! ANOTHER KICK! A THIRD! GOODNESS LORD THOSE KICKS JUST STUNNING THE GOAT! O’Hara fires away with a flurry of forearm shots in succession! Ducks a wild swipe by Fournier, and hits a spin kick to the midsection! O’Hara rebounds off the ropes nearby – but he’s taken off his feet courtesy of a clubbing ax handle! Fournier follows up with a knee drop to the chest! Rebounds off the nearby ropes himself, into a much more elevated knee drop straight into the face! Now Fournier drags O’Hara to his own corner looking to for lack of a better expression corner him, but O’Hara is privy to that; he manages to nail a big kick to the top of the head of Fournier despite being on the grounded position. Fournier stumbles back into his own corner and Elite makes the blind tag while O’Hara combat rolls away from the ILLIONAIRES corner and makes a bee-line over to his partner Cameron Ella Ava! NO! ELITE POUNCES ON HIM AND TRIPS HIM TO THE GROUND BY THE LEG! JUMPING DOUBLE FOOT STOMP INTO THE BACK OF O’HARA! ELITE IS SCREAMING PROFANITY INTO CAM’S FACE WHILE STANDING ON JAMIE’S BACK, AND ELITE SLAPS THE TASTE OUT OF CAMERON ELLA AVA’S MOUTH WITH A VICIOUS BITCHMAKER!!!!! THE DISRESPECT! Nah but for real though he really slapped the shit out of this bitch while standing on her husbands back :dead:
Deadprez: :mjlol: That is kinda funny. You shouldn’t call women bitches though Gavin that’s disrespectful, right Eve? :mjpls:
Eve: :mjpls:
Deadprez: Nonetheless Elite springs up off O’Hara’s back and onto the middle turnbuckle, waiting for Jamie O’Hara to pull himself back up… once he does Elite takes off with a DIVING SOMERSAULT NECKBREAKER! HOOK OF BOTH LEGS AFTER THAT ONE!
Ref: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE!!! TWWWWWWWWWWWWO
Eve: Kick out by O’Hara. Elite wasting little time, he drags O’Hara back to the ILLIONAIRES corner by the wrist and tags in his partner Ahren Fournier. O’Hara takes a few swipes at Elite but Fournier is giving O’Hara a hell of a time, stomping away at his torso while Elite wrenches O’Hara’s left arm around the bottom rope, torquing it in an uncomfortable position. The official is making his standard “five” count as teams are allotted a limited window of double team action, and Fournier takes the last second opportunity at backing away and delivering a BONE JARRING PUNT KICK TO THE TORQUED UP ARM OF JAMIE’S, WHILE ELITE HAD IT HELD IN POSITION!!!! O’Hara rolls away grasping at his tricep! Fournier drags O’Hara by that arm, bends it backwards, and delivers a vicious stomp into the tricep of that bent over backwards arm! O’Hara sits up in a jolt of pain, and Fournier slaps in a snug rear chinlock, keeping the EAW Hall of Famer planted on the canvas while his partner stands by with her sights fixated on the action.
( A moment goes by with Ahren wearing down Jamie, Jamie gives his best efforts to escape and Cameron Ella Ava is leading the crowd on with claps to help will Jamie out of the grounded position he is in. )
Deadprez: Cameron Ella Ava is trying to coach and encourage her husband on the from the apron, hopefully to motivate him to find the quickest escape. Fournier is looking real aggressive tonight. You can tell he didn’t come for play play, as he rips back at the hair of Jamie O’Hara, prompting a citation from the referee. Fournier stands up and places a boot to the side of O’Hara’s head to pin his head to the ground, and he shows off to the audience here in the sold out T-Mobile Arena. Over 19,500 members of the EAW Universe giving Fournier the boo birds in retaliation. Fournier rips O’Hara off the mat and takes him back to the ILLIONAIRES corner by the nape of his neck. He delivers a STIFF ASS KNIFE EDGE CHOP TO THE CHEST! And tags in Chris Elite before grabbing Jamie O’Hara by one side while his partner Chris Elite grabs the other. There’s a DOUBLE ARM DRAG FROM ILLIONAIRES, FOLLOWED BY A CARTWHEEL DROPKICK FROM CHRIS ELITE!
Gavin Kirkland: BEAUTIFUL! ILLIONAIRES PERFORMING LIKE A WELL OILED MACHINE, THIS IS WHY I FIRMLY BELIEVED GOING INTO THIS THAT THEY WOULD HAVE THE ADVANTAGE! AS UNDYING AS THE LOVE BETWEEN JAMIE O’HARA AND CAMERON ELLA AVA MAY BE, THAT DOESN’T CHANGE THE FACT THEY ARE SINGLES COMPETITORS AT HEART! THAT WILL BE THEIR DOWNFALL, JUST YOU WATCH!
Eve: Chris Elite drags Jamie O’Hara in front of the turnbuckle and he hypes up the crowd, demanding that they get on his side and receiving a pretty hefty split reaction in response. Elite springs up to the turnbuckle and pulls something rare out of his wheelhouse! A SPRINGBOARD SPLIT LEGGED MOONSAULT!!!
Deadprez: INTO THE BOOTS OF O’HARA! That gives Jamie O’Hara enough of an opening to crawl away from that corner and closer to the center of the ring! Now he pulls himself up from the canvas and jumps at his partner for the HOT TAG! GOT IT!!!
Eve: NOT SO FAST! BIG MIKE FROM RINGSIDE! BIG MIKE RIPS CAMERON ELLA AVA OFF THE APRON BY HER ANKLES! … CHRIS ELITE , IN THE RING, CATCHES JAMIE O’HARA FROM BEHIND WITH THE GERMAN SUPLEX! ROLLS THROUGH THE GERMAN SUPLEX…. LONG KISS GOODNIGHT!!!!!!
Deadprez: MEANWHILE AVA LANDS ON BIG MIKE’S SHOULDERS AND SPIKES HIM ON THE TOP OF HIS HEAD WITH A REVERSE FRANKENSTEINER!!!! WHAT A COUNTER!
EVE: THAT WAS AMAZING! IN THE RING CHRIS ELITE HAS O’HARA UP ON HIS SHOULDERS TO COMPLETE “LONG KISS GOODNIGHT” BY PLANTING O’HARA WITH THE ONE WINGED ANGEL! BUT CAMERON ELLA AVA SLIDES INTO THE RING AND CLOBBERS ELITE WITH A WONDER WOMAN PUNCH!!! Jumping forearm smashes into Elite’s face making the last second save, and O’Hara slides off of Chris Elite’s shoulders to behind! STRAIGHT JACKET!!! STARDUST BREAKER!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: But Ahren Fournier drags Jamie O’Hara out of the ring by the ankles from behind! Ava trying to get involved, but the referee is informing Ava she is not the legal woman in this match, and is spending all of his attention getting her back to the apron! O’Hara and Fournier are trading heavy shots at ringside, each clubbing blow can be heard from the stands! O’Hara delivers multiple forearm shots, cuts Fournier off with a shoot kick, followed by a SPINNING BACKHAND TO KNOCK HIM DOWN! No Fournier ducked under that wild swing, and CHRIS ELITE SENDS O’HARA CRASHING INTO THE BARRICADE WITH THE SUICIDE DIVE!!! ELITE SPRINTS BACK INTO THE RING, WHILE AVA GOES CHARGING AFTER AHREN FOURNIER, CHASING HIM AWAY! ELITE MEANWHILE TAKES O’HARA BACK DOWN AGAIN WITH A FOSBURY FLOP!!!! BOTH MEN ARE DOWN, UH OH, I THINK ELITE MAY HAVE ACTUALLY LANDED A LITTLE TOO HARD ON HIS WAY DOWN TO THE FLOOR! LET’S TAKE ANOTHER LOOK ON THE REPLAY!
( REPLAY: Chris Elite dives over the ropes with a Fosbury Flop, and can be seen colliding head-to-head with Jamie O’Hara in midair and crashing down on his own shoulder in an awkward landing. )
Eve: You’re absolutely right Gavin, that landing did not look good at all, it could have taken just as much out of himself as it did Jamie! But regardless of that Chris Elite pulls himself up using the barricade behind him, he’s favoring the right shoulder but he’s not letting it deter him. Elite takes note of the referee counting away and breaks the official’s count by sending O’Hara back into the ring with seemingly one good arm. Elite follows Jamie O’Hara in, and slides over O’Hara for a lateral press cover.
Ref: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE!!! TWO!!!
Deadprez: Shoulder up from Jamie. Yeah nah Chris Elite definitely fucked himself up on that Fosbury Flop, you can see the visible discomfort. Elite looks back at his partner and is in the process of dragging Jamie O’Hara back to the ILLIONAIRES corner…. WOULD YOU LOOK AT THAT! JAMIE COUNTERS FROM THE FLOOR WITH AN ARM-SCISSORS TAKEOVER, INTO A MODIFIED CROSS ARMBAR! HE DOESN’T HAVE ALL OF IT, BUT HE HAS HIS LEGS WRAPPED COMPLETELY AROUND CHRIS ELITE’S RIGHT ARM!
Gavin Kirkland: :damn: That is God-like in ring awareness Deadprez!!!! He delivered that from the ground no less, on his back!!! Chris Elite is desperately trying to drag himself over to the ILLIONAIRES corner, while O’Hara has his legs wrapped tightly around Elite’s arms and is practically clawing his fingernails down to the nub to pull himself and his opponent over to his own corner! LOOK AT THIS! O’HARA TRANSITIONS INTO A ROLLING BODY SCISSORS BACKSLIDE PIN!
Ref: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE!!! TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Eve: CHRIS ELITE ESCAPES IT! But O’Hara has his legs wrapped tightly around Elite’s torso on the canvas, dead in the center of the ring! Chris Elite goes from favoring the right shoulder, to using his good left arm in order to send an elbow back into O’Hara’s face! But Jamie O’Hara catches the arm, maneuvers Chris Elite over until he’s face first against the mat, and Jamie O’Hara stands with both feet on the damaged shoulder of Chris Elite! What an absolutely brilliant method of turning the tides against an opponent, by picking up on a vulnerability and capitalizing on it instantly! And in pure ironic fashion, Jamie O’Hara stands across his wife Cameron Ella Ava with a faint smile, standing on Chris Elite’s back the same way Chris did earlier in this match. And he jumps off of Elite…. into a TAG! CAMERON ELLA AVA IS OFFICIALLY IN THIS MATCH! CHRIS ELITE ROLLS AWAY AND SCRAMBLES UP TO HIS FEET TO TAG IN HIS PARTNER! TOO LATE!!!!!!!!!! GODDESS’ TOUCH!!!!!!!!! AVA SLAMMING THE BOOT INTO THE SIDE OF CHRIS ELITE’S HEAD!!!! THERE’S THE COVER, HOOK OF THE LEG!
Ref: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE!!!! TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Deadprez: AHREN FOURNIER JUMPS INTO THE RING! BUT JAMIE O’HARA TACKLES HIM THROUGH THE ROPES AND DOWN TO THE RINGSIDE FLOOR!!!
Ref: THRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
Eve: DAMN IT! BIG MIKE GETS HIMSELF INVOLVED AGAIN! BIG MIKE SLIDES THE BOOT OF CHRIS ELITE OVER THE MIDDLE ROPE, AND THE REFEREE SPOTS IT!
Deadprez: Yeah but while that may have delayed the inevitable, the referee SAW Big Mike interfere yet again this time! And Big Mike is at ringside holding up his hands like some blameless innocent victim!
Referee: :usure:
Big Mike: :lupe:
Referee: :camby:
Eve: AND JUST LIKE THAT, BIG MIKE IS OUTTA HERE!!!
Gavin Kirkland: WHY?! HE DIDN’T DO ANYTHING WRONG!!!
Deadprez: TELL IT TO THE JUDGE, OH THAT’S RIGHT IN THIS CASE THE REFEREE IS THE JUDGE, AND HE DECIDES WHO STAYS AND WHO GOES! Big Mike is cursing up a storm and some sort of gravitational pull eventually has him wandering over to the ramp, throwing a tantrum due to being ejected from this match! Cameron Ella Ava has Chris Elite’s right arm torqued and is watching Big Mike leave with a smile, waving him goodbye with a slick little grin… before delivering a SITOUT ARMBREAKER, AGGRAVATING CHRIS ELITE’S INJURED RIGHT SHOULDER SOCKET!!! Chris Elite squirms around, screaming in pain at what could be a dislocated right shoulder! Cameron Ella Ava has a look that could kill in her eyes right now! She backs into the corner out of sight, and TAKES OFF! IN EXCELSIS!!!!!!! EXECUTION STYLE TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD!!!!
Eve: ELITE DUCKS AT THE LAST SECOND! KNEE DOESN’T CONNECT! Ava turns around! JUMPING ENZUIGIRI FROM ELITE! Sidestepped by Ava! Elite scrambles, LONG DELAYED TILT-A-WHIRL HEADSCISSORS TAKEDOWN BY AVA! TRANSITIONED INTO THE AVA LOCK!!!!! STF!!!! STF!!!!! CHRIS ELITE IS IN A BAD, BAD WAY HERE! AHREN FOURNIER IS PULLING HIMSELF UP FROM THE FLOOR, TRYING HIS DAMNDEST TO GET BACK TO HIS TEAM CORNER! Elite is flopping around as much as possible, he is in dire straits!
Gavin Kirkland: But would you look at this! Elite somehow manages to get enough leverage to roll out of the STF and stack Ava on her own shoulders!
Ref: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE!!!! TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Ava gets out of it, and Elite jumps up to grab Ava by both legs! Sending her into the ring ropes with a SLINGSHOT! That sends Cameron Ella Ava tumbling through the ropes and landing outside of the ring! Ava hit the ringside floor pretty hard, Chris Elite may have bought himself some time with that outside the box little tactic. Ahren Fournier has made it back to his team corner, Elite scratching and clawing as quickly as he can over to his partner! Cameron Ella Ava is climbing back up from the ringside floor and back into the ring as quickly as she can………. she returns to the ring…….. Chris Elite reaches UP!!!! AND…………..
…
…..
Eve: HE GOT THE TAG! BUT BEFORE FOURNIER CAN EVEN STEP THROUGH THE ROPES, CAMERON RE-ENTERS THE RING LIKE A SPEEDING BULLET! SHE SPRINGBOARDS OFF THE PERPENDICULAR ROPES TO AHREN FOURNIER AND CATCHES HIM WITH THE SPRINGBOARD ROUNDHOUSE KICK TO KNOCK HIM OFF OF THE APRON!!
Deadprez: Nobody home! Fournier jumps off the apron just in time! CHRIS ELITE CATCHES AVA WITH A VICTORY ROLL! BUT HE KNOWS DAMN WELL HE AIN’T EVEN THE LEGAL MAN! BUT HE CONVERTED THAT O’CONNOR ROLL INTO THE ONE WINGED ANGEL POSITION!!! MEANWHILE AHREN DARTS UP TO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE QUICKER THAN A HICCUP!!!! AHREN FOURNIER GOING FOR “PROTECT YA NECK” OFF THE TOP ROPE, WITH CAMERON ELLA AVA ON CHRIS ELITE’S SHOULDERS! “PUT IT ON ICE” TO FINISH THIS MATCH!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: UH OH, HANG ON!
Eve: They don’t get it just yet! Chris Elite drops down to his knees favoring his injured shoulder! He is unable to hold Cameron Ella Ava up, a woman who weighs significantly less than he does, which should tell you exactly what kind of damage has been done to that shoulder! Cameron Ella Ava takes the opportunity to charge up the turnbuckle and meet Ahren Fournier on the top rope! And holy hell is she unleashing with those right and left gruesome blows to the ribs! Now Fournier and Ava are battling it out now high above the ring, while the referee checks on the well being of Chris Elite… But Elite brushes past the official and charges up that same turnbuckle that Cam is on, hammering shots away at the kidneys of an unsuspecting Cameron Ella Ava! Elite is trying to take Cam off the top turnbuckle with a GERMAN SUPLEX NOW, FROM THE 2ND TURNBUCKLE!!!!!!
Deadprez: BUT JAMIE O’HARA GETS HIMSELF INVOLVED, HAMMERING SHOTS AWAY AT CHRIS ELITE!
Eve: Chris Elite, Cameron Ella Ava and Ahren Fournier are all standing above the ring while Jamie O’Hara fights from the ground to restore the playing fields to an equal level. O’Hara RIPS Elite off the middle rope where he stood and pulls him down to the ring in a straight jacket hold!!!
Gavin Kirkland: BAM!!!!! STARDUST BREAKER ON CHRIS ELITE!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: NOT YET! ELITE CAUGHT JAMIE OFF GUARD MID SPIN WITH TWO RIGHT HANDS! SHOOT KICK! BACK FIST! FOLLOWED BY A LARIAT! 5 BOROUGH COMBO BY CHRIS ELITE TO COUNTER THE STARDUST BREAKER!!!! NOW CHRIS ELITE SPRINGS UP THE TURNBUCKLE NOW, AND YANKS CAMERON OFF OF THE TOP ROPE AND ONTO HIS SHOULDERS IN A SEATED POSITION! SIMILAR TO THAT OF “LONG KISS GOODNIGHT”, BUT HE’S SETTING CAM UP FOR “PUT IT ON ICE”! AHREN FOURNIER STRAIGHTENS HIMSELF UP AFTER EATING PUNCHES DIRECTLY TO THE NOSE… PREPARING HIMSELF FOR THE DOOMSDAY DEVICE TO FINISH THIS —
Gavin Kirkland: BUT CAM STRAIGHTENS HERSELF UP ON CHRIS ELITE’S SHOULDERS AGAIN! STANDING AND JUMPING OFF OF CHRIS ELITE’S SHOULDERS —
Deadprez: ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!! CAMERON ELLA AVA WITH A SPRINGBOARD GODDESS’ TOUCH OFF OF CHRIS ELITE’S SHOULDERS, KNOCKING AHREN FOURNIER OFF THE TOP TURNBUCKLE AND SENDING HIM CRASHING DOWN TO THE RINGSIDE FLOOR!!!!!
Eve: That was absolutely insane!!! Chris Elite himself looks absolutely stunned by what he saw! I’ve never seen anybody deliver something like that in my life! Chris Elite is given a final warning to go back to his corner by the referee, but Elite completely dismisses it and charges right after Cameron Ella Ava with a clothesline! JAMIE O’HARA CUTS CHRIS ELITE OFF WITH A SLINGBLADE AT THE LAST SECOND, PUTTING HIS ALL INTO IT! BOTH MEN TAKE EACH OTHER OUT, AND GO ROLLING OUT OF THE RING AFTER HITTING THE DECK HARD! Cameron Ella Ava descends to ringside to drag Fournier back in the ring, much to the behest of the referee. Ava is huffing and puffing for air, and now has to find a way to get the dead weight of Ahren Fournier back into the ring as quickly as possible after a tremendous quick thinking variation of the Goddess’ Touch.
Deadprez: It ain’t long before Ava has Fournier slumped over the apron, again that is the dead weight of a grown ass man she’s lugging along. It’s not easy, especially not in the middle of a grueling match. Fournier looks like he actually might be badly banged up after that brain scrambling Goddess’ Touch followed by the horrific tumble to the outside of the ring. Ava is trying to push Fournier back in the ring…. hold up…???
( Jennipurr, who has made her way off of the announce table area, is now firmly perched on top of Ahren’s head while he is laid out on the apron. )
Gavin Kirkland: JENNIPURR HAS ARRIVED TO SAVE THE DAY AT ZERO HOUR! WHAT A BRAVE KITTY, PUTTING HERSELF IN THE LINE OF FIRE FOR ONE OF HER ILLIONAIRE MASTERS!
Eve: More like trying to protect her source of food! Either way, Cam is trying to be as gentle as she can and remove Jennipurr from her opponent, but Jennipurr is holding on for dear life! Ava definitely isn’t going to be able to reason with her! But we have a match going on for pete’s sake!
( Jamie O’Hara climbs to the far side of the apron…. and extends the hand guns signal towards Jennipurr. )
Deadprez: HOLD UP GUYS HOLD UP! JAMIE O’HARA IS LOCKED IN ON HIS TARGET!
( Jennipurr, still clinging to Ahren’s head, stares back at Jamie daring him to try it. )
Gavin Kirkland & Eve: NO JAMIE! NO!!!
Deadprez: PENALTY KICK FROM O’HARA!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PENALTY KICK TO JENNIPURR ON THE APRON!!!!!!!
( Cameron Ella Ava jumps up on the apron and stops Jamie O’Hara in his tracks before he can connect. Ahren Fournier rolls himself in the ring barely conscious of where he even is. )
Jamie O’Hara (off-mic): LET ME KICK THE FURRY CUNT’S HEAD OFF.
Cameron Ella Ava (off-mic): No!!! We have a PETA sponsorship :damn: !!!!
Jamie O’Hara (off-mic): SCREW THE DAMN SPONSORSHIP, I WANT ITS HEAD.
Eve: BOX OFFICE SMASH!!!!! CHRIS ELITE TAKES JAMIE O’HARA’S HEAD OFF WITH A SUPERKICK FROM THE RING!!! O’HARA DROPS TO THE RINGSIDE FLOOR! CHRIS ELITE REBOUNDS OFF THE ROPES AND SPRINTS BACK ACROSS THE RING FOR A DIVE —
Deadprez: IN EXCELSIS!!!!!!!! BICYCLE KNEE BY CAMERON HITS CHRIS ELITE ACROSS HIS TEMPLE!!!! CAMERON ELLA AVA TURNS AROUND!
Gavin Kirkland: PYK!!!!!!!!!!!!! CLOTHESLINE FROM HELL!!!!!!! JESUS CHRIST WHAT A DECAPITATING SHOT! CAMERON ELLA AVA TURNED INSIDE OUT OFF THE DISTRACTION FROM CHRIS ELITE AND JENNIPURR, AND AHREN FOURNIER COLLAPSES OVER AVA, HOOKING BOTH LEGS!
Ref: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE!!! TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
( DING! DING! DING! )
( “Starboi” by The Weeknd hits, and Ahren Fournier raises both fists in celebration and bangs his fists on the canvas following his monumental victory. )
Gina Romano: HERE ARE YOUR WINNERS, THE TEAM OF CHRIS ELITE AND AHREN FOURNIER, IIILLLLLLIIOOOOOOONNNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIRRREEEEEEEEEEEEESS!!!
Eve: This is what you call passing the litmus test?! I know we’re in Vegas but for the love of God, this entire thing may as well have been fixed by the referee himself! There was more chicanery in this match than the 2002 Western Conference Finals!
Deadprez: You a real one for that reference Eve, but a win is a damn win, that’s just the bottomline to it! ILLIONAIRES did what they had to do to succeed and expended every tool they brought to the table.
Gavin Kirkland: DAMN do I love being right! Maybe if Jamie O’Hara wasn’t a sadistic animal abusing sociopath with the abs of a greek god, he’d have a loyal and devoted four legged furry companion to remain by his side. But instead his cruel and evil nature cost their team the match, NOT sweet little Jennipurr! You leave that girl alone! She’ll accept me someday…
( A badly banged up Chris Elite embraces Ahren in the ring, as they both pump each other up over the tremendous victory. Big Mike returns into the ring and raises both Chris Elite and Ahren Fournier’s hands in celebration, showing off for the audience. Jamie O’Hara is on all fours at ringside, with blood pouring from his busted lip following the Box Office Smash. Cameron Ella Ava remains unconscious in the ring, and in the backdrop of ILLIONAIRE’s celebration. )
Eve: Well forgive me for not being quite convinced just yet. These are two incredibly talented young guys who may still be on the precipice of the prime of their careers! You would think a win like this is beneath them after all they’ve accomplished before by their own merit but, by hook or by crook I suppose right?
Gavin Kirkland: Stop dickeating and appreciate greatness, Evie! Also are you calling Chris Elite a crook because he’s black? Because that is VERY racist and totally uncalled for.
Eve: ….Gavin I swear to God.
( Gavin applauds ILLIONAIRES for their hard fought victory and ILLIONAIRES continue their celebration on the ramp until they leave for the back. )
(The scene fades into Kyra Phillips backstage with a grin on her face. So far, Reasonable Doubt has shaped up to be wonderful and there’s still so much that needs to go down. At the moment, Kyra stands behind a blue back drop as she’s excited to introduce her next guest.)
Kyra Phillips: Reasonable Doubt is shaping up to be a wonderful event for the Showdown brand, but we are far from over. We still have our main event to get too. Earlier tonight, a fatal-4-way match consisting of Ryan Wilson, Shane Gates, Shaker Jones and Harlow Reichert opened the show and set the tone for the night. The winner would move on to face the Answers World Champion on the Showdown after Reasonable Doubt. The match was competitive and anyone could have walked away with the victory. Right now with me, I have the winner of the fatal-4-way match. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome my guest at this time, Harlow Reichert!
(Harlow Reichert walks into the camera frame with a huge grin on her face. She has a towel wrapped around her neck as she still seems to be in a high from winning her match. After losing her match at Territorial Invasion, Harlow needed to win this match and find herself back on track to getting her first championship in EAW.)
Kyra Phillips: Harlow, congratulations from winning your match earlier tonight? How are you feeling at this moment?
Harlow Reichert: Kyra, I knew that my hard work was going to result in another victory. I was fully confident that I would walk out of the fatal-4-way match as the winner. There’s no doubt in my mind that out of the four competitors in the match, I wanted to win the match more than anyone. I was aware that just stating that “I want to win the match” was not going to be enough. I needed to prove out there that there was no one could hold a candle to me in the ring. Throughout the week, nothing was brought to the table from my opponents. Nothing they said struck a chord with me and I wasn’t impressed with what I saw from them in the match. From there, I knew that this match was going to be mine for the taking. It was just a matter of when I was planning to win the match. I know, it sounds arrogant coming from me, but the match proved my point. There was no one that compared to me in the ring. There was no ounce of competition that was going to make me worry about whether I can pull this entire thing off. I feel pretty good. I felt pretty good about my chances going into the match and I feel good going into my match against the Answers World Champion.
Kyra Phillips: Harlow, you now have an opportunity for the Answers World Championship. Are you planning on any different approach to make sure that you walk away with your first championship on Showdown next week?
Harlow Reichert: Without knowing who will be the champion after tonight, the only strategy I have is to pick and choose when to attack. That’s always been that strategy with me. The only action that I can do in the match without any knowledge of my opponents is to show them why I am the best pure wrestler — not only on Showdown — but in EAW. It’s what I’ve done with whoever I stood across from in the ring. Constantly, I’m thinking of Xav’s words in my mind. I’m trying everything I can to take this one match at a time. I truly believe that my moment is coming and I haven’t felt more confident than ever that I will be a champion soon. I mean, can you imagine me as the Answers World Champion? :wow: Just being a champion in general would be amazing and it’s safe to say that I’m in better shape now than I was a year ago. A year ago, I was on the shelf thanks to Raven Roberts. Now, I have a chance to be the Answers World Champion.
Kyra Phillips: As we approach this main event with Mr. DEDEDE and Amber Keys, is there anyone in particular that you want to face on Showdown?
Harlow Reichert: I have to admit — I almost got ahead of myself with saying that it’s going to be Harlow Reichert versus Mr. DEDEDE, but I don’t believe Amber is someone that we should be counting out at all. Both of them thrive on chaos and there’s no doubt that their match is going to be a bloodbath. If I face one of them on Showdown, I know I will be getting that same energy. It’s something that I won’t be able to avoid, but I’ll be ready for whatever is thrown in front of me. I know that it’s going to be bigger competition — bigger than the competition that I faced in the fatal-4-way match. I’m aware that this is one of the first times that I am going to face the best in this company. Ryan Wilson has gloated about facing elite competition, but the difference between Ryan and myself is that I will look like I belong with main caliber talent. I don’t have a preference for who I want as my opponent. I’ll face whoever gets thrown in my way. People will say that the odds won’t be in my favor, but let’s not forget that either DEDEDE or Amber is going to have a week to fully recover from the match they will be competing in tonight. I’m fully confident in my abilities. Both of them are intimidating figures, but if I have face them in order to get my first championship, it’s something that I’m more than willing to do.
Kyra Phillips: Harlow, good luck to you on Showdown! Now, we’re going to take a quick commercial break, and then it’ll be time for the main event!
(Commercial for the “Pain Collection: Twelve Years of Pain for Pride” with special, never before seen backstage interviews as well as every heart stopping moment to occur at the grandest stage in wrestling! Preorder your special edition box set today!)
(We open back up to the arena dimmed as strobe lighting highlights the Hell in a Cell structure that slowly lowers itself down towards the ring. The camera then pans down and we see Gina Romano standing just outside of the cell’s radius near the timekeeper’s area.)
Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen… the following contest is our main event of the evening…
(The tron lights up with the match graphic.)
Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Gina Romano: AND IT IS A HELL IN A CELL MATCH FOR THE EAW ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP!!!
(“All It Takes For Your Dreams To Come True” by A Skylit Drive blasts through the speakers as Amber Keys runs out from behind the curtain and onto the stage. The crowd goes massively wild with cheers for Amber, which somewhat catches her by surprise. She wears an old Mr. DEDEDE t-shirt with AWF branding on it.)
Gavin Kirkland: Dead woman walking!
Eve: Amber Keys hasn’t cared about the risks or the odds for a long time now! She went out and she intentionally destroyed the company’s deal with Egypt, costing over $300 million in revenue which sent our chairman and Answers World Champion into a frenzy! She— wait… what’s this?
(Amber grabs at the neck of her AWF Mr. DEDEDE shirt and tears it away, revealing a black t-shirt underneath with the old ACW logo. The already pro-Amber crowd goes even more insane for the veteran superstar.)
Crowd: A-C-Dub! A-C-Dub! A-C-Dub!
(Amber leads the fans in the chant as she begins to make her way down to the ring.)
Deadprez: Well… we are right in the heart of old ACW territory. It’s an old rival promotion that once competed with us and I can’t think the Chairman will be very happy to see this! But Amber is already putting her career on the line tonight, I don’t think she cares what the chairman will think!
(Amber climbs up and poses briefly on the apron before climbing into the ring. The fans continue to chant and she soaks up the approval. Her music then fades and is replaced by “Let It Go” by A$AP Ferg, causing the chants to get even louder in an attempt to drown out the music.)
Crowd: **A-C-Dub! A-C-Dub! A-C-Dub!**
(Mr. DEDEDE hears the chants as he steps out onto the ramp with the Answers World Championship around his waist. He pauses and looks down the ramp and sees Amber wearing the ACW shirt. Immediately his jaw clenches and a vein above his eyebrow begins to pulse. His eye almost seems to twitch in anger before he begins a march down towards the ring at a pace noticeably quicker than his usual.)
Deadprez: As I said, the chairman clearly unhappy to see Amber promoting an old rival here on EAW programming, dead or not. This is not a man I’d intentionally poke and prod into anger. I still can’t get the image of him driving those elbows into the Visual Prophet out of my head.
Eve: You’re probably right, Prez. But try explaining that to Amber! She’s hell bent on getting what she wants and that’s to finally take her spot at the top by force while telling the company to fuck itself in the mean time. What do you think, Gav?
(Camera quickly shows only Eve and Deadprez visible at the desk as both look underneath.)
Deadprez: Bitch, you hiding again?
Gavin Kirkland: Just tell me when he’s locked inside the cell, okay?
(DEDEDE climbs up into the ring and immediately starts to tell Amber off, getting in her face, but the referee steps between the two and separates them much to DEDEDE’s annoyance. Amber smirks as she now pulls off the t-shirt, getting down to just her ring gear.)
Gina Romano: Introducing first… the challenger. From the Bronx, New York… weighing in at 135 pounds… the “Dirti Diva”…. AAAAAMMMBBBEEEERRRR KKEEEEEEEYYYYSSSSS!!!
(Amber turns and steps up into the turnbuckles, tossing the ACW t-shirt into the crowd as the fans explode for her. After a brief moment, she hops down and eyes DEDEDE with a confident grin.)
Gina Romano: And the Champion… From the Ryan Adams Estate In Santo Domingo of the Dominican Republic… weighing in at 227 pounds… he is the Answers World Champion… “The Gawd”… MIISSSSSSTTTEEEERRRRR DDDEEEEEEEDDDEEEEEEDDDEEEEEEE!!!!
(The chairman holds up the title as the crowd boos but he doesn’t take his eyes off of Amber, the look of rage still apparent on his face. The referee comes to take the title but DEDEDE throws it at him. The referee recovers, holding the belt up for the camera. He then hands the title to the outside before signaling for the cell to finish being lowered.)
Eve: It’s so ominous to watch this structure lowered down and secured around two people…
Deadprez: In all of Wrestling… there are few things as dangerous as Hell in a Cell…
(Once the cell is in place, the referee signals for the bell.)
(DING! DING! DING!)
Eve: And we are underway— DEDEDE CHARGING OUT OF HIS CORNER STRAIGHT FOR AMBER WITH MURDER IN HIS EYES!
Deadprez: But Amber sliding quickly out of the ring, not going to take on DEDEDE with a full head of steam! She knows DEDEDE perhaps better than anyone in the history of this industry so if anyone has a strategic advantage over the champion, it’s Amber Keys! Amber now sliding back into the ring, watching the champion as she moves, no wasted motion! DEDEDE staring a laser through the challenger as she begins to circle around him! DEDEDE clearly wants to wrap his hands around her neck but Amber trying to play it smart! She moves around— AMBER GOES IN FOR A TIE UP!
Eve: BUT DEDEDE GRABS HER ARMS AND HURLS HER BACK INTO THE CORNER! NO INTEREST IN CLASSICAL WRESTLING RIGHT NOW!

Ref: ONEEEEEEEEEE!
Eve: But a quick kick out from the champion! DEDEDE not going to be taken out quite that easy! The champion checks his jaw and rolls over to get to his feet— BUT AMBER ALREADY LOOKING TO KEEP THE PRESSURE ON! AMBER RUSHES IN AND WRAPS HER ARMS AROUND THE CHAIRMAN’S NECK! SHE ROTATES UP! THE MK LOCK! AMBER APPLYING DEDEDE’S OWN SUBMISSION TO HIM! DEDEDE FIGHTING!
Deadprez: DEDEDE manages to fight his way out of the vertical muta lock before its fully applied! But had that been locked in we could’ve seen the chairman submitted by his own signature hold! DEDEDE gripping at his neck as he rises again to his feet— SUCIAKICK! AMBER PLANTS THE SUPERKICK RIGHT INTO THE CHIN OF THE CHAMPION! AMBER KEYS ABSOLUTELY ON FIRE HERE IN THE EARLY STAGES! DEDEDE IS DROPPED TO THE MAT! FLAT ON HIS BACK! AMBER KEYS HAS A MASSIVE OPPORTUNITY HERE AND I THINK SHE SEES IT! AMBER POPPING HERSELF UP TO THE TOP ROPE IN THE CORNER! SHE LOOKS OUT TO THE SEA OF RAUCOUS FANS THAT HAVE RALLIED BEHIND AN UNLIKELY HERO! AMBER LINES UP HER SHOT! SHE TAKES OFF! DIRTI DIVE!
Gavin Kirkland: DEMOLITION! DEDEDE POPPED UP AND CAUGHT AMBER OUT OF THE AIR WITH THE DIAMOND CUTTER!
Eve: But DEDEDE not done there. He grabs Keys by the hair, dragging her up slowly, savoring the moment! Amber still rocked from the cutter out of nowhere… DEDEDE taking her head in by a front face lock! LIFTING HER UP! IMPALER! THE IMPALER DDT PLANTING AMBER KEYS DOWN INTO THE CANVAS! DEDEDE ROLLS HER OVER AND HOOKS THE LEG!
Ref: ONEEEEEEEEEE!
T—
Deadprez: NOT EVEN A TWO COUNT! AMBER KEYS SHOWING THE HEART OF A WARRIOR ALREADY! I don’t remember the last time someone kicked out of DEDEDE’s Impaler that quickly! DEDEDE not letting it get to him though! The champion has control and he is going to take advantage of it! He has Amber by the hair yet again! Looking to further the punishment on the woman who took hundreds of millions from his pocket! DEDEDE pulls Amber up to her feet! DEDEDE applying the double underhooks! LIFTING HER UP! LOOKING FOR THE MK DRIVER!
Eve: But Amber kicks her feet and DEDEDE can’t keep her balanced! He drops her back down but still has the underhooks! DEDEDE lifting her again— BUT AMBER SWINGING HER LEG DOWN AND DRIVING A KNEE RIGHT INTO THE FOREHEAD OF THE CHAIRMAN! DEDEDE RELEASES THE GRIP AND AMBER FLIPS OVER TO HER FEET BEHIND HIM! SHE GRABS HIM BY THE HEAD FROM BEHIND! MASSIVE NECKBREAKER!
Deadprez: Amber Keys fighting back and getting back on the offensive! Amber takes off quickly and leaps into the ropes! SPRINGBOARD MOONSAULT CONNECTS!

Eve: OH MY GOD! Not even close to a three count! DEDEDE just grabbed her by the face and shoved her off! For all the punishment Keys has doled out already, the chairman is still pressing forward! Amber looks somewhat surprised that didn’t get the three! But she had better stay on her game if she’s going to be taking this home! You can’t leave any moment of opening for the champion! Amber up to her feet, trying to shake off the Kickout. She reaches down to grab DEDEDE by the shoulder— BUT DEDEDE GRABS HER ARM INSTEAD! HE YANKS HER DOWN TO THE MAT! AND DEDEDE IMMEDIATELY MOUNTS HER AND CLIMBS ON TOP OF HER! HE GRABS HER BY THE THROAT AND BEGINS TO SMASH HER BACKWARDS INTO THE MAT WHILE THROTTLING HER NECK!
Gavin Kirkland: I guarantee it’s not the first time DEDEDE has choked Amber while being on top.
Deadprez and Eve: :skip:
Gavin Kirkland: But the chairman now continuing to drive Amber’s skull back into the ring canvas! Refusing to relent as he seeks to cause as much punishment to her as possible! DEDEDE now rolling off of Amber but keeping his hand around her throat! He drags her up to her feet as she coughs and chokes in his grasp! DEDEDE HURLING AMBER BACK INTO THE CORNER! HE FOLLOWS UP! RAPTURE! THE HELLUVA KICK CAUGHT AMBER RIGHT ON THE BRIDGE OF THE NOSE!
Eve: Amber is rocked! She doesn’t fall over but she stumbles out of that corner and her head is scrambled! OH! Look at the blood flowing! That boot from DEDEDE must’ve broken her nose or something! Blood pouring like a faucet out of her nostrils! Amber turns around— SPEAR! DEDEDE CONNECTS WITH A SPEAR! KEYS DRIVEN FLAT TO THE MAT!! THE CHAIRMAN NOW WITH A LATERAL PRESS!

DEDEDE looks like he has some evil intentions in mind though! Could be looking for that MK Driver still! If he hits that, that’s Amber’s career done for! DEDEDE stalking! Coming in at Amber’s side and trying to get a grip on her head— BUT AMBER WRAPS HER HANDS TOGETHER AND DRIVES AN ELBOW RIGHT INTO THE TESTICLES OF THE CHAIRMAN! AMBER KEYS NOT CARING WHAT LENGTHS SHE WILL HAVE TO GO TO IN ORDER TO WIN! DEDEDE IS DOUBLED OVER! AMBER PRESSES UP TO HER FEET! SHE HITS THE ROPES!

Deadprez: Still not even close to a full three count! And DEDEDE is once again already trying to find his way to his feet! Amber is in shock! You can see the worry beginning to build behind her eyes! You’re only going to hit so many of those shots! You have to make them count! Amber grabs DEDEDE by the long hair and pulls him over to the corner! Half dragging the body of the champion as DEDEDE is barely to his knees! Keys now pulling the champion up to his feet! She shoves him back into the corner now! Amber walks backwards along the ropes, keeping her eyes on DEDEDE as she goes! Amber finds herself in another corner! AND SHE TAKES OFF!! AMBER ALERT!
Eve: BUT DEDEDE SLIPS OUT OF THE CORNER! HE GRABS AMBER BY THE HEAD AND USES HER MOMENTUM TO SEND HER FLYING OUT OF THE RING AND CONNECTING WITH THE CELL WALL BEFORE CRASHING TO THE FLOOR!
Deadprez: But the chairman isn’t done! He looks at Amber on the outside and he gets an idea! DEDEDE now runs and hits the ropes on the far side! He comes
Across the ring! LEAPING UP INTO A SOMERSAULT OVER THE TOP ROPE! VINTAGE DEDEDE! HE THROWS CAUTION TO THE WIND AND CRASHES HIS OWN BODY INTO AMBER’S!

Eve: Nearly caving in Amber’s rib cage! Amber writhing on the floor now in pain as DEDEDE stands over her, just looking down and staring a hole through her! DEDEDE now turning his attention away from Amber! He reaches down and lifts the ring skirt, looking see what he can find underneath! DEDEDE sifting through the contents under the ring, but clearly not satisfied with what he sees! Amber is coughing as she tries to roll over to her knees but DEDEDE is focused on his task! He walks around the corner of the ring and continues his investigation! Amber now crawling! She reaches over and looks underneath the ring herself! DEDEDE now on the complete opposite side of the ring to her! Oh… wait… DEDEDE has that twisted grin on his face! What’s he—
Deadprez: THE EQUALIZER!
Eve: THAT CUSTOM GUITAR! ITS GOT BARBED WIRE STRINGS AND IS FILLED WITH NAILS, TACKS, AND GLASS SHARDS! THAT ABOMINATION OF A CREATION HAS TAKEN OUT SO MANY ELITISTS OVER THE YEARS! DEDEDE LOOKING TO END THE CAREER OF AMBER KEYS WITH IT RIGHT HERE TONIGHT! DEDEDE NOW MAKING HIS WAY AROUND THE RING AND GOING AFTER AMBER!

AMBER KEYS GOING TO TOWN WITH THAT KENDO STICK HERE TONIGHT! DOING WHATEVER SHE CAN TO KEEP DEDEDE FROM UTILIZING THE EQUALIZER!
Eve: Amber swinging with reckless abandon just to survive! DEDEDE drops the guitar over on to the ring apron to try and cover up! Amber still swinging away with everything she has inside of her at the chairman! These two former lovers, life partners, now just seeking absolute destruction in this bitter war! Amber swings again— AND ANOTHER SHOT CRACKS ACROSS THE FACE OF THE CHAMPION! YOU COULD HEAR THAT ONE FROM HERE! DEDEDE IS FINALLY STUMBLED! Amber tosses the kendo stick aside now and kneels down quickly to look underneath the ring! She pulls out… something? I couldn’t see it! But she shoves it into her back pocket! And now she grabs a steel chair out from under the ring as well! She slides the chair into the ring and rolls in with it! She pulls herself back into the corner, standing at the ready!
Deadprez: DEDEDE is finally recovered and rolls himself slowly into the ring! But I think Amber just saw the equalizer sitting on the ring apron! DEDEDE reaches over to grab his trusty weapon— BUT AMBER TOSSES HER CHAIR ASIDE! AMBER KEYS GRABS THE EQUALIZER AND YANKS IT AWAY FROM THE CHAIRMAN!

Gavin Kirkland: Amber rushes over! Clubbing at the back of the champion now! Desperately trying to wear him down further! Amber swinging again and again! But how much is it really doing against a man like DEDEDE? Amber now dropping down and rolling out of the ring again! She grabs that kendo stick!

Deadprez: Amber looks like she’s near tears! She can’t believe that didn’t do it! All these shots she’s hit DEDEDE with and none of it has been enough! The chairman keeps coming like a damn terminator!
Gavin Kirkland: And that window of opportunity may have just ran out! DEDEDE up to his knees already as all Amber can do is stare at her impending doom! He wipes his eyes and it looks like he can finally see again!
Eve: Amber simply may not be able to keep DEDEDE down! There’s no shot she hasn’t thrown at him! Amber is still on her knees as DEDEDE now stands in front of her! Towering over her! DEDEDE grabs Amber by the throat and now lifts her up! DEDEDE’s large gram holding Amber Keys by the neck as he holds her inches off the mat! Amber not even fighting! Has she accepted her fate? Is this all there is left? Is she staring into the abyss right now?
Deadprez: The only one who can answer that is Amber but DEDEDE looks ready to end things! He—
Gavin Kirkland: WHAT WAS THAT?!?
Eve: AMBER JUST REACHED INTO HER BACK POCKET AND PULLED SOMETHING OUT! SHE JUST BLASTED DEDEDE ACROSS THE FACE WITH IT!
Deadprez: What’s she got though?!? She drops from DEDEDE’s grip and— HANDCUFFS! SHE HAD HANDCUFFS! SHE SLIPPED THEM AROUND HER FINGERS AND PUNCHED DEDEDE WITH THEM ALMOST LIKE BRASS KNUCKLES!
Eve: THATS RIGHT! SHE GRABBED SOMETHING EARLIER FROM UNDER THE RING AND SLIPPED IT INTO HER POCKET! AMBER STILL WITH ANOTHER BACK UP PLAN!
Deadprez: But she needs them to start counting! These opportunities are beginning to run thin and the longer she takes to end things, the more this match favors the chairman! Amber now rolling down and out of the ring as she tries to make her move! She grabs DEDEDE’s hand and pulls him over towards the corner! Amber about to try and cuff DEDEDE to that bottom rope near the corner and keep him from getting back up all these times! She tries to snap the cuff in place—

DEDEDE now rolling out of the ring, checking himself after that shot with the hand cuffs!

DEDEDE DRIVUNGAMBER FACE FIRST INTO THE STEEL OF THE CELL WALL! NOW RUNNING HER ALONG THE CHAIN LINK! DEDEDE GRATING AMBER KEYS ALONG THE WALL OF HELL IN A CELL AND SLICING HER FACE OPEN MORE AND MORE!
Eve: DEDEDE DRAGGING KEYS ALONG THE LENGTH OF THAT WALL! AND NOW RIGHT BACK DOWN IT AGAIN FROM WHERE THEY CAME! Amber Keys is almost unrecognizable at this point! She’s being torn to pieces here in this contest every time DEDEDE gets his hands on her! But she continues to fight! She refuses to give up! And she’s giving everything! But she may be in for it if she can’t recover from this! DEDEDE with an unmerciful expression as he drags Keys down the cell wall again, grinding her face against that chain link!
Gavin Kirkland: Her face looks like ground meat!
Deadprez: :dahell: Shut the fuck up, Mercer-lite!
Gavin Kirkland: Jake Mercer wishes he could be me.
Eve: DEDEDE finishes running Amber along that wall and drops her in a heap near the corner of the cell! DEDEDE stepping over! NO! NO! DEDEDE HAS THOSE HANDCUFFS! HE STEPS OVER AND AMBER STILL HASN’T RECOVERED! DEDEDE HOISTS AMBER UP BY THE ARM! AND HE CUFFS HER TO THAT CELL WALL!
Deadprez: AMBER JUST REALIZED WHERE SHE IS AND TRIES TO FREE HER ARM BUT CANT PULL AWAY! THAT CUFF AROUND HER RIGHT WRIST AND THE OTHER AROUND THE CHAIN LINK! AND NOW DEDEDE SMILES AT HER WITH THAT SICKENING LOOK!
Eve: DEDEDE now fishing underneath the ring! DEDEDE PULLS OUT A LEAD PIPE! HE WALKS OVER TO AMBER AND SMASHES IT RIGHT INTO HER STOMACH! AND AGAIN! AND AGAIN! DEDEDE TRYING TO PICK APART THE HELPLESS VETERAN RIGHT NOW! DEDEDE LOOKS BEHIND HIM!! AND NOW HE— Drops the pipe? What’s he doing?
Deadprez: KEYS IS IN THE CORNER OF THE CELL! DEDEDE SLOWLY BEGINS TO BACK UP! HE HAS A FREE LANE! DEDEDE IS BACKING UP TO THE FAR CORNER OUTSIDE THE RING! AND HE TAKES OFF! AMBER HAS NOWHERE TO GO AS DEDEDE CHARGES! SPEAR!!!

Helpless! DEDEDE now backing up again! Oh come on! This is just disgusting! DEDEDE lines up again! And he takes off! SPEAR!
Gavin Kirkland: YIKES! That one hit even harder than the last! The cell wall beginning to warp from the impact of these spears! DEDEDE showing no remorse! Taking $300,000,000 entirely out of Amber’s hide! DEDEDE checks to see if there’s still life in Amber and there is, just barely! He now is backing up again! Stepping back just a little further this time! DEDEDE CHARGING AGAIN! SPEAR!
Crowd: :damn:
Deadprez: I THINK DEDEDE IS STARTING TO SEPARATE THE CELL WALL! SOME OF THE BINDINGS HOLDING THAT CORNER TOGETHER JUST POPPED OFF AFTER THAT MASSIVE FORCE! DEDEDE looking like bese enjoying himself! Spear after spear now and each one threatening to be the end of Amber Keys! Not just her career but possibly her life!
Eve: Well it’s not over yet! DEDEDE pacing back yet again and getting in position! Taking off— SPEAR!

Gavin Kirkland: DEAR GAWD! DEDEDE continuing to increase the impact of every spear! DEDEDE setting up once again! He walks down the lane once more! DEDEDE lining up! He takes off! SPEAR!!
Deadprez: SHIT! DEDEDE KNOCKING EVEN MORE BINDINGS OFF AS THAT WALL BEGINS TO ACTUALLY SEPARATE FROM THE REST OF THE CELL! Amber is barely clinging to consciousness after six spears! No human should endure that from someone as deadly as DEDEDE! I can see blood just dripping from her mouth as she hangs there from her arm! DEDEDE— are you fuckin serious? He’s gonna do it again?!?
Eve: No! Come on! Just stop this! This is insanity! DEDEDE down his lane again! His back against the wall and— just… just come on! Stop the madness! DEDEDE now walking all the way down to the far corner! This is just hard to watch! Amber Keys could very well be dead and he wants to keep adding momentum to this garbage! DEDEDE gets himself set! And now he takes off! Running at full speed down along the ring! He turns the corner and is going with a full head of steam at Amber! SPEAR!
Deadprez: WAIT! NO! AMBER GRABBED THE CELL AND PULLED HERSELF UP AND DEDEDE GOES UNDERNEATH HER! DEDEDE JUST PLOWED RIGHT INTO THAT CHAIN LINK AT FULL SPEED! HE KNOCKED IT BACK EVEN FURTHER BUT HE ALSO MAY HAVE JUST KNOCKED HIMSELF SENSELESS!
Eve: DEDEDE is on his feet but just barely! Amber must have had just enough time to figure out something to do while DEDEDE took the extra distance to run! Amber now pulling herself up once again! SHE KICKS WITH HER LEGS AND SENDS DEDEDE BACKWARDS! THE CHAIRMAN’S HEAD BOUNCES OFF THE STEEL POST OF THE RING! Amber Keys has a moment to breathe but she’s still cuffed to that wall! Amber now using her free hand to wipe some blood from her face again as she pulls at that cuff! The wall may be bent and busted but she’s still caught there and it’s not giving at all!
Deadprez: Amber reaching up! She has a grip on her hand as she pulls! Wait… she’s thinking about something. Amber looks like she isn’t happy but she has an idea! Amber reaching up! Amber grabbing her own hand and—
**SNAP**
Amber Keys (off-mic): AAAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
Eve: AMBER KEYS WITH A BLOOD CURDLING SCREAM! Did… did she just…
Deadprez: AMBER KEYS JUST SNAPPED HER OWN THUMB! SHE NOW SLIDES HER HAND OUT OF THE CUFF AND IS FINALLY FREE! BUT SHE PAID A PRICE FOR THAT ESCAPE!
Eve: But was that price worth it? Amber looks over and sees DEDEDE once again starting to climb to his feet! He won’t stay down for any extended period! Amber moves over— PUNT KICK! AMBER KEYS CONNECTS WITH A KICK ACROSS THE SKULL OF THE CHAMPION!
Gavin Kirkland: You can see that desperation rising in Amber Keys! She’s fighting with all she has on this mission to reclaim her own legacy from what has been done to tarnish her name over twelve long years! The champion is down but Amber knows it won’t be for long!
Deadprez: It won’t! Amber now reaching down with her good hand and grabbing that lead pipe! AMBER CRACKS THAT PIPE OVER THE BACK OF DEDEDE’S SKULL! AND A SHOT TO THE BACK! AND TO THE LEG! AND ANOTHER TO THE HEAD! AMBER LAYING INTO THE CHAIRMAN WITH THAT PIPE AS SHE TRIES TO MAKE DEDEDE STAY DOWN!
Eve: Keys now tossing the pipe aside looking at that damaged wall! She begins to press into it but immediately pulls back! That broken thumb keeping her from doing much with that hand! Amber now driving her shoulder into the corner of that damaged cell wall! AND AMBER PRESSES ENOUGH AND SLIPS OUT OF THE CORNER! AMBER KEYS HAS ESCAPED THE CELL STRUCTURE!
Deadprez: She knows she has to get back inside but being able to create a moment to rest is an invaluable opportunity for her right now! You can see the blood running from her face! The bruising that’s completely changed the color of her abdomen from the damage done while she was handcuffed! And now she just coughed up more blood from what I can only assume is horrendous internal damage!
Gavin Kirkland: OH MY GOD! LOOK INSIDE THE CELL!
Eve: HOW?!?
Deadprez: DEDEDE STILL RISING TO HIS FEET! HOW IS THIS MAN NOT BLEEDING? HE ISN’T HUMAN!
Eve: The look on Amber’s face tells the whole story! She almost looks heartbroken! How will she ever make DEDEDE stay down?!? He keeps getting up after everything! It’s almost unfair! And that frantic look so clear in Amber’s eyes! DEDEDE now already trying to go for the gap in the cell that Amber slipped out of! But DEDEDE is much larger than Amber is so he’s nowhere close to fitting! Amber needs this time to recover! And she knows it!
Gavin Kirkland: Amber now running over to the far side of that cell wall! She’s right in front of us here at commentary! AMBER KEYS IS CLIMBING UP THE HELL IN A CELL STRUCTURE! AMBER IS MAKING HER WAY TOWARDS THE TOP! LOOK AT HER JUST TRYING TO KEEP THAT SPACE BETWEEN HER AND THE CHAMPION! AMBER WINCING, SCREAMING IN PAIN EVERY TIME SHE USES THAT RIGHT HAND DUE TO THE BROKEN THUMB!
Deadprez: And DEDEDE not letting her escape! He’s looking for something! Anything to— DEDEDE HAS THAT LEAD PIPE AGAIN! HE JAMS IT INTO THE GAP IN THE CAGE AND USES IT TO PRY THE CELL WALL FURTHER FROM THE STRUCTURE! DEDEDE WORKING THAT PIPE TO CREATE SPACE! DEDEDE IS FREE! HE HAS ESCAPED THE CELL AND IS IN HOT PURSUIT OF THE CHALLENGER!
Eve: Amber is nearing the top of the cell now, though and DEDEDE steps up right beneath where she is to start climbing! DEDEDE with nothing but cold hatred in his eyes as he climbs! Looking to put and end to the career of Amber Keys once and for all! DEDEDE climbing quickly as Amber finally crests over onto the top of the cell! She looks down and sees DEDEDE close behind and he just begins to pull at her hair! What can she do to stop this force of nature?
Deadprez: Amber has no choice but to watch as DEDEDE climbs up the cell! Closer and closer to her! Looking to make her pay for every crime she committed against the company! For every dollar she cost him! Amber watches as the man she once shared a life with now approaches with intent to kill!
Eve: Amber slowly backing away! DEDEDE nearing the top! Amber watches as DEDEDE gets his hands up onto the top of the structure! The chairman pulling himself up! DEDEDE standing to—
Gavin Kirkland: AMBER ALERT!!!!!!!
**CRASH**
Eve: OH MY GOD!!!
Deadprez: AMBER KEYS JUST SPEARED THE CHAMPION RIGHT OFF THE TOP OF THE CELL! THE BOTH JUST CRASHED DOWN FROM THE SKY RIGHT THROUGH OUR COMMENTARY TABLE!
(Slow motion replay shows DEDEDE getting to his feet and looking up just in time to see Amber run in with the Amber Alert. She plows through the chairman and both go flying off the top of the cell and down through the commentary desk.)
Eve: Neither of them are moving… this is sheer carnage…
Deadprez: Amber Keys didn’t want DEDEDE to be the one who ended her career… she may have just taken that matter into her own hands and taken the chairman with her…
(Twelve EMT’s rush out from the production area behind the stage and sprint down the ring pushing stretchers and carrying body boards.)
Gavin Kirkland: Wait so what does this mean?
Eve: Honestly I don’t know… we may have a vacated World Championship…
Deadprez: Neither of them are about to finish this match… that’s for certain. They haven’t even moved since they hit the floor… but Amber didn’t win… which means her career is over whether she survives or not…
(Several EMT’s position DEDEDE’s bodyboard next to him as another group begin to check on Amber.)
Deadprez: Ladies and gentlemen… we apologize for what you’ve all just had to bear witness to…
(DEDEDE is rolled over onto the body board and lifted up onto a stretcher. The EMT’s strap him down to the stretcher and begin to roll him away.)
Eve: What does this do to the future of Showdown? Of EAW as a whole? That’s our company chairman! And he may very well be dead for all we know!
(Amber is rolled onto her body board and placed onto her stretcher now as an Ambulance is backed down towards the ramp from a utility entrance. They EMT’s open the door and get in position to lift DEDEDE’s stretcher into the ambulance.)
Deadprez: Out condolences go out to the friends and families of both of these competitors… we know Kassidy Heart must be backstage watching somewhere and for what she just had to see her husband go through—
Eve: AMBER JUST PUNCHED AN EMT!
Deadprez: HOW DOES AMBER STILL HAVE THAT WILL TO LIVE?!? SHE’S SWINGING PUNCHES AT THE MEDICAL STAFF THAT ARE TRYING TO HOLD HER DOWN! BUT AMBER REACHES DOWN AND POPS THE STRAPS OFF OF HERSELF! SHE PULLS HERSELF OFF THE BODY BOARD! AN EMT NOW TRYING TO REASON WITH AMBER—
Gavin Kirkland: SUCIAKICK! AMBER PUT THE SUPERKICK RIGHT ON THE BUTTON TO THE EMT AND NOW SHES MOVING TOWARDS DEDEDE WHO IS JUST ROLLING INTO THE AMBULANCE!
Eve: NO BELL EVER RANG! TECHNICALLY THIS MATCH IS STILL UNDERWAY! AMBER MOVING THROUGH EXCRUCIATING PAIN AS SHE LIMPS OVER TOWARDS THE AMBULANCE! SHE SHOVES ONE OF THE EMERGENCY STAFF AWAY AND PULLS THE AMBULANCE DOOR OPEN! AMBER KEYS GRABBING THE STRETCHER THAT HOLDS THE CHAIRMAN DOWN AND PULLS HIM OUT OF THE AMBULANCE!
Deadprez: THE STRETCHER BOUNCES AS IT HITS THE FLOOR BUT IT LANDS ON ITS WHEELS! AMBER NOW PUSHING THE STRETCHER! NOT LETTING IT END THE WAY!
Amber Keys (off-mic): OPEN THE FUCKING DOOR!
Eve: Amber demanding the outside referee open the door to the cell but the referee is afraid! That’s his boss! AMBER JUST KNOCKED THE REFEREE BACK INTO THE CELL! SHE GRABS THE KEY FROM HIS HAND AND OPENS THE DOOR HERSELF! WITH EVERYTHING SHE HAS LEFT!! AMBER KEYS PUSHING DEDEDE UP ALONGSIDE THE RING! AMBER UNSTRAPPING DEDEDE FROM THE STRETCHER!
Deadprez: AMBER JUST ROLLED THE CHAIRMAN INTO THE RING! SHE ROLLS HERSELF IN! CLUTCHING AT THAT BROKEN HAND AND LIMPING AS SHE MOVES! AMBER DROPS DOWN! SHE HAS THE COVER! AMBER KEYS IS THE ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION!!!
Ref: ONEEEEEEEEEE!
……………………………..
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
………………………………
Eve: THE FIRST FEMALE ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION! AMBER KEYS!
Deadprez: NO! DEDEDE GOT HIS SHOULDER UP AT THE ABSOLUTE LAST INSTANT!
Eve: But… but how? HOW? JUST FUCKING HOW?!?
Deadprez: Amber is going wild now! She’s pounding the mat! She absolutely can’t understand it! She’s pulling at her own hair! Amber thought the nightmare was finally over!
Gavin Kirkland: You guys… that’s Gawd…
Eve: Amber trying to force that emotion back down! She crawls her way over to the far side of the ring! She spills herself down to her knees in a runners stance! She doesn’t care about the pain anymore! This is life or death for Amber Keys! She has to put everything left into one final shot!
Deadprez: AMBER POUNDING AT THE MAT! SHE WANTS DEDEDE UP! SHE’S GOING TO END THIS RIGHT HERE!
Amber Keys (off-mic): GET UP! GET UP YOU SORRY SACK OF SHIT!
Eve: DEDEDE now feeling for the ropes! He’s trying to pull himself up but both of these two just took a crash from the top of the cell! The fact they’re still in this is ungodly…
Amber Keys (off-mic): COME ON RYAN! GET YOUR ASS UP! COME ON!
Deadprez: DEDEDE dragging himself up by the ropes as Amber is almost shrieking at him now! Refusing to let him have any respite! AMBER KEYS IS IN POSITION! DEDEDE IS ALMOST TO HIS FEET! AMBER TAKES OFF ONE MORE TIME! AMBER ALERT!
Eve: BUT DEDEDE MANAGED TO CATCH HER AT FULL SPEED!
Gavin Kirkland: DEDEDE LEANED BACK INTO THE TURNBUCKLES TO KEEP ON HIS FEET AND HE GRABBED AMBER OUT OF THE SPEAR!
Deadprez: DEDEDE APPLIES THE DOUBLE UNDERHOOKS! HE HOISTS AMBER UP!
Eve: MK DRIVER! THE DOUBLE UNDERHOOK BRAINBUSTER DRIVES AMBER KEYS SKULL FIRST DOWN— RIGHT INTO THE EQUALIZER! IT WAS STILL THERE FROM EARLIER! DID YOU SEE HOW AMBER’S NECK SNAPPED TO THE SIDE ON IMPACT?!? DEDEDE NOW COLLAPSING OVER HER WITH A COVER!
Ref: ONEEEEEEEEEE!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

(DING! DING! DING!)
Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen… here is your winner and STILL the Answers World Champion… MISTER DEDEDE!!!
(“Let It Go” blasts again as DEDEDE rolls off of Amber and just lies there in the ring. The medical staff try to come in but the chairman waves them off.)
Deadprez: Gawdzilla retains and the story of the Dirti Diva comes to a close… dear god… what a war…
(Suddenly, Kassidy Hearts bursts out through the curtain. She runs down into the cell and slides into the ring, immediately crawling over to her husband.)
Kassidy Heart (off-mic): Ryan? Ryan, baby? It’s okay! I’m here!
Eve: Kassidy here to check on her husbands health… and now she’s yelling for officials to come in and help DEDEDE.
(Kassidy waves to the outside and two referees come in and begin to help DEDEDE roll to the outside where each takes an arm over their shoulders and help him walk out of the cell. Kassidy rushes over to the timekeepers area and grabs the Answers World Championship for her husband before rejoining him as they begin to walk up the ramp.)
Gavin Kirkland: That… was brutal…
Eve: We’ve had quite a night here at Reasonable Doubt and I think it’s time we bring it all to a close. For Deadprez and Gavin Kirkland… I’m Eve, and we’ll see you all next week for Saturday Night Showdown…
(The Camera watches as Kassidy walks behind the referees helping DEDEDE up the ramp. The final shot shows Amber still unresponsive as a brace is wrapped around her neck.)
