(EAW intro plays)
(A recap of last week’s Showdown is shown as Andrea Valentine kicks off the show where she talks about her frustrations about her treatment on both Dynasty and Showdown before Harlow Reichert interrupted her. After an argument ensued Ryan Wilson came out and confirmed along with Alexis Chambers that both of them would be representing Showdown in the Extreme Elimination Chamber and the Specialists Chamber. Bashar Jackson gets a well needed victory over a debuting Kid Ohio in the first match of the night. Dr. Winston Brett provides an update on Kassidy Heart after Reasonable Doubt stating she suffered from second degree burns and a concussion but will still be able to participate in the Grand Prix tournament. Jon Kelton gets a win over Lucas Johnson to qualify for the Extreme Elimination Chamber for the Answers World Championship. Ryan Wilson and Alissa Brady have a flirtatious conversation with one another before Ronan Malosi comes along and tries to find peace with the Showdown General Manager and align with him, despite Ryan pushing it away Ronan says the offer is still on the table as he leaves. Mr. Business cuts a promo demanding that he gets better competition on the roster when he’s interrupted by Maxwell trying to bring him back down to Earth. Before anything else both of them are interrupted by Bashar Jackson as before long both Bashar and Maxwell lay waste to Mr. Business and his employees as they retreat from the scene. Maxwell gets a quick win over Strawberry Steve with a dominant victory over him. James Ranger talks about his Reasonable Doubt victory before Consuela Rose Ava makes her way out and gives her signs of respect, but not before Justin Windgate comes out and inputs himself into the Road To Redemption match by cashing in his 24/7 Contract at the event. After that Justin Windgate gets a win over SKA before SKA cuts a promo talking about how he plans to rebound from his losses and makes sure nobody mentions his name in vain again. Speaking of SKA he confronts Bronson Daniels and confirms to him that next week they’ll be facing off for a spot in the Extreme Elimination Chamber. Before long Nurse Goldstein and Alexis Chambers give an update on Dr. Bethany Blue as The Good Doctor sustained second degree bones and cracked ribs as Alexis goes on to blame it on Kassidy Heart as it gets heated as the scene ends. And in the main event Jack Ripley beats Ronan Malosi as Ryan comes out and tells Ronan that he accepts his offer and at Road To Redemption it will be them vs The Realm for the Unified Tag Team Championships to end the recap)
(‘Uncontainable’ by Set It Off plays up to cheers from the crowd as blue and white pyro bursts out from the stage as the crowd begins to cheer in anticipation as the camera pans over to the virtual setting around the World 1 Theatre. Before long the camera pans over to the broadcasting team consisting of the usual Deadprez, Eve, and Gavin Kirkland as they begin to speak to the camera)
Gavin Kirkland: Ladies and gentlemen as always, welcome to SATURDAY NIGHT SHOWDOWN!
Eve: Indeed and we have a jam packed show for you this week as always as in our main event in an Extreme Elimination Chamber preview as former EAW World Champion, Andrea Valentine, will be going up against former 24/7 Contract Holder, Jon Kelton!
Gavin Kirkland: :whew: Women in the main event, yeah and Jon Kelton too sure… and we can’t forget more regarding the Extreme Elimination Chamber as a qualifier is also on the show as former New Breed Bro, Bronson Daniels, will be going up against SKA, nothing of interest of course, but you get the point!
Eve: God can’t you just talk about the matches.
Gavin Kirkland: I for one respect women, it appears you can’t respect your own gender. :mjpls:
Eve: Womanizer.
Gavin Kirkland: WHAT-
Eve: LET’S GET ON TO THE SHOW! We take it to Deadprez standing in the middle of the ring!
(Deadprez stands in the center of the ring with a microphone in his hand.)
Deadprez: Ladies and gentlemen, several weeks ago at Reasonable Doubt, these women entered inside the Cell, looking to cement their legacy as the Answers World Champion. Both of them went through hell, and we mean that quite literally. Both of them tumbled off the top of the cell after it looked like Bethany sent Kassidy off, before Kassidy pulled Bethany down to the flames with her. Both of them received second degree burns because of it. Bethany suffered cracked ribs. And Kassidy suffered another concussion from it. Last week, both representatives from both sides gave updates, and we heard from Alexis that Bethany has quite the bone to pick with The Mauler. Both of them have something they want to get off their chest.
Deadprez: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome…DR. BETHANY BLUE!!
(Bethany is sitting in her condo she shares with Alexis here in New Jersey. The screenbar under her reads “NEWARK, NEW JERSEY.” She has a few burn marks on her face as she wears a red top, her sandy blonde hair brushed all the way down.)
Deadprez: And please welcome…KASSIDY HEART!!
(Kassidy square appears next to Bethany’s on the screen. Kassidy looks like she’s sitting in her suite here in New Jersey. She’s still in town after competing on Dynasty last night. Underneath her reads the screenbar “NEWARK, NEW JERSEY.” She looks roughed up, but still as beautiful as ever.)
Deadprez: Kassidy, first off. It must sting after what happened last night on Dynasty. You and Sienna came up short and you didn’t reach the pin in tim–
Kassidy Heart: I am going to cut you there, Deadprez. Blicky Boyz BARELY defeated Jaded Hearts last night on Dynasty. Blicky Boyz barely defeated Jaded Hearts last night and according to the word on the street, I was not at 100%. Malcolm and Chris had all of the opportunity to take advantage of a less than 100% Kassidy Heart, but they barely won the match. It just proves that I can be less than 100% against those two and I will be heads and shoulders above them. The fact of the matter is – they didn’t out-wrestle me. They just kept me out of the ring long enough to capitalize on Sienna. I can sit back and reflect on the match. I can wonder ‘what if’ I was in perfect health going into the match, but I don’t regret going out there and competing. I went against doctor’s orders. I went against all medical advice to stay out of wrestling, but I was not going to let my best friend and partner, Sienna down. I was going to suck up any pain that I felt within my body and be the best fucking partner that I can be to Sienna. Does it suck that we won’t be back-to-back Grand Prix winners? Of course, but me and Sienna are flawless and beautiful wrestlers, it won’t be long until we get some accomplishment underneath our belt. Whether it be as a unit or as individuals. We’re way too damn good to be ignored. We’re Tag Team Of The Decade for a reason.
Dr. Bethany Blue: You all heard that right? In the middle of all that rambling. She said she went against Doctor’s orders to stay out of the ring. And now look at her, she’s clearly suffering more because of it. I did what I was told to do because it was smart for me and my health long term and I wasn’t going to risk anything. Kass’ head clearly doesn’t seem in the right place.
Kassidy Heart: Shut up, you delusional fuck. No doctors will tell me what to do. I’m Kassidy Heart and can do what I want to do, and I was gonna be damned if Jaded Hearts gave up their spots in that tournament without a fight. I’m a fighter, Bethany. All of my career I’ve been fighting to keep wrestling in that stupid ring. I’ve had doctor after doctor after doctor give me the same typical advice of just calling it a day and there was no way I was going to give him that satisfaction. You, Bethany, are just like every other ‘doctor’ who would have advised me to stay away from this ring. I spent the past three months out of that wrestling ring and it made me…miss wrestling. It made me miss sinking my teeth to the flesh of my opponents. It made me miss ripping their limbs out as they tap out for mercy. It made me miss collecting victory after victory, asserting my dominance and proving that I more than belong to be in this ring. I more than belong to be standing on top of this company and no one is going to take that away from me. No one is going to tell me what I should do with my life. Not even a doctor.
Dr. Bethany Blue: That’s where you’re wrong, “mauler.” I’m just as much of a fighter as anybody else, including you. Are you forgetting some of the match types I’ve been in during my short time here? I’m not going to sit here and be criticized for taking my health seriously, Kassidy. Something you should be ashamed of. I’m looking at the bigger picture which is a long and storied career, not some rebellious short term thing where you defy authority and throw your weight around like you have been. Ryan Wilson even offered me a chance to be in the Chamber, and after thinking long and hard about it, I declined it because once again, think of the bigger picture. It’s not worth the risk. What did you get out of risking your health the way you did? Another loss. I actually care for you Kassidy. The reason I am on you the way I am is because I don’t want those beautiful twins to see you in a wheelchair while you are still young. You’re going down that route and you won’t take any advice, and it’s quite sad to see.
(Kassidy Heart rolls her eyes at the Good Doctor.)
Deadprez: Well last week, Alexis claimed she had a problem with Kassidy saying what happened at Reasonable Doubt could have been avoided if Kassidy just “minded her own business.” Do you agree with that Bethany?
Dr. Bethany Blue: Absolutely. Us falling down into flames never would have happened. I was a sole survivor carrying a team on my back, and I earned that spot to face James O’Hara one on one, and Kassidy shows up and places herself into the match because she can. She attacked him afterwards at Territorial Invasion but that still doesn’t automatically mean she should be the contender after she was nowhere to be seen for three months. I know I would have beaten James and I know I would be standing here as the Answers World Champion, but someone else’s greed got in my way of accomplishing that. Adding on top of that. Kassidy says she could have snapped her fingers and gotten me taken out of that match. I would never have stood for that. Nobody throws their weight around and takes something away I earned that easily and gets away with it. Now, when I’m healthy enough, I’m going to make you pay, Kassidy. I AM a future Answers World Champion and I will show that when I come back healthy and better than ever.
Kassidy Heart: You’re implying that I’m greedy and it got in the way of you becoming Answers World Champion? Oh no, you being in the match was a giant inconvenience, but I made it work. I could have called up Ryan and had you taken out of the match, but I decided to do that. Oh no, I figured that there was a better way to take care of you. I thought by destroying you in that Armageddon Hell in a Cell and proving that you don’t belong in any World Championship picture, you would have gotten the picture and probably learned that you’re not on my level. Yes, there is a part of me that wished I would have gotten my one-on-one match for the Answers World Championship. I was looking to make that magical story of submitting Jamie to the Louis Vuttion of Wrestling Moves, but to defeat you and that bozo ex-boyfriend of yours? It would have made things more satisfying for me. It would have solidified that I was better than anyone on this brand and especially, I was better than you, Bethany. By the two of us going to hell, I saved you the heartache of defeat. Sadly, it cost me my victory, but there will come a day where I’ll get another match for the Answers World Championship and I won’t fail.
Dr. Bethany Blue: You’re truly the stereotypical delusional blonde aren’t you? You could never match up to me. You’ve been on a downward spiral since Pain for Pride, while I’ve been at the very top of my game. Add in the fact you’re making dumb decision while I’m playing things smart health wise. It’s not just all of that Kassidy, you just got ANOTHER concussion when we fell off that cell. I might have lost count how many you have taken throughout your career. It’s your second one since Pain for Pride. I’m honestly shocked you’re still going and I wouldn’t be shocked if five years in the future you’re not only in a wheelchair, but your brain is a big pile of mush. You seriously should have taken your leave and spent the rest of your days raising Emogen and Jessamyn.
Kassidy Heart: Don’t you ever bring them up again.
Dr. Bethany Blue: You’re quite also selfish. I’m sorry to bring them into this but what did you do when they were born? You were back competing. Those babies need you in this stage of their life. They can’t get too attached to a nanny or something. Not only are you selfish in the ring, but you’re selfish to your own family.
Kassidy Heart: THAT IS IT!! You don’t know anything about me. Them and my husband are the most important people in my life. My wrestling career is one of the most important things in my life and I’m not going to let you control how I run my life in and out. You’re a cancer around here Bethany. You’re not that good of a wrestler and all you do is cause drama for everybody here. Nobody wants you here and I’m gonna be the one to finally rid EAW of the Doctor. I’m gonna be the one to show I’M the future Answers World Champion. I’M gonna be the one who shows that Showdown is MY brand. Once again, I could have you fired within a snap of a finger, but where’s the fun in that? I’m looking to take you out with my BARE HANDS. I’m gonna do that at Road to Redemption. Accept the challenge and fight me at Road to Redemption, Bethany.
Deadprez: Kassidy just laid down a challenge for a fight at Road to Redemption. What do you say Doctor?
(Bethany chuckles.)
Dr. Bethany Blue: You clearly are a dumb blonde aren’t you? The answer is no. Didn’t I tell you earlier I’m playing it smart? I CANNOT and WILL NOT risk further injury. I may be “cleared” by the time the vent comes, but I know I won’t be nearly my full self. I can’t let you take advantage of me or vice versa because I don’t want people to think of me as beating up a wounded Kassidy who just competed in Grand Prix. Again Kassidy, it’s better for both of us if we just rest and heal up for the New Year. I’m gonna do it, and for once listen to the doctors…YOU DO IT TOO!
Kassidy Heart: You’re making excuses. You say you deserved that championship shot more than me? Now’s your chance to prove it.
Dr. Bethany Blue: Have a blessed night, Kassidy.
(Bethany’s feed cuts off as Kassidy looks on from her satellite feed, she shakes her head at Bethany declining.)
Deadprez: Well Kassidy, it seems Bethany has declined your challenge. So what now?
Kassidy Heart: It looks like I’m gonna find out where that condo is.
(Kassidy’s video feed cuts out as the camera fades to black.)

Gina Romano: The following contest is scheduled for One FALL!!
Virtual Crowd: ONE FALL!!
( ‘King Is Born’ by Aloe Blacc plays over the PA system of World 1 Theatre while Perfection Personified is making his way towards the ring. )
Gina Romano: From Cleveland, Ohio! Weighing in at 218 pounds! KID…O-HI-OOOOOOOO!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Second EAW match for Kid Ohio who lost on his debut match last week against Bashar Jackson.
Deadprez: A good match mind you, keep an eye on him, ladies and gentlemen.
( ‘Blazblue’ from the Alter Memory Soundtrack plays over the PA system as James is making his way to the ring looking square at his opponent the whole way. )
Gina Romano: AAAAAAAAND His Opponent! From London, England! Weighing In at 243 pounds! He is The Black Mamba! JAAAAAAAAAMES RAN-GERRRRRRRR!!!
Gavin Kirkland: One of two contenders for Consuela Rose Ava’s Interwire Championship! He looks to be on a mission tonight.
Deadprez: Ever since after Territorial Invasion James has been on the way up! Will this translate into a title victory at Road to Redemption?
( Ding! Ding!! Ding!!! )
Eve: And This Match Is Officially Under Way! Both men are glaring at each other in the center of the ring before locking up quickly and Ranger has the upper hand early on! Headlock followed by an Irish whip into the ropes sees Ohio bounce off them he dodges the clothesline thrown forth by James and WOAH Kid Is Trying To Go For Perfect’d Early On! The Zig Zag manoeuver connects!! Can Kid Ohio put Ranger down in record time???
Official: ONE! TWO!! THR-
Gavin Kirkland: NO! THE MAMBA MANAGED TO KICK OUT AT TWO AND THREE QUARTERS!!!!
Deadprez: That could’ve ended up quickly!
Eve: Kid Ohio looks surprised at how quickly things went! Kid Ohio quickly goes to a mounted position atop of Ranger and pummels him with a series of angry fists before the official gets him off of James for a moment. Just long enough to remain within the confines of legality! This is a bad start for James who gets up to his feet helped by the newcomer who is only at his second match here on Showdown and Elite Answers Wrestling! He whips Ranger into the ropes he tries for a clothesline but he gets clipped by a running enziguri by Black Mamba! Down does the Kid but he gets rapidly to his knees! Ranger closes in and sets him up for a double underhook backbreaker and it connects! Down goes the kid from Cleveland as the London born seems to be picking up momentum! James moves behind a slow rising Kid Ohio before throwing him backward with a german suplex! But he doesn’t let go! He swings Kid once more for a second suplex!
Virtual Crowd: Two!!
Eve: James is still not letting go of the waist of his opponent, swinging him back for a third suplex, and this time…
Virtual Crowd: Three!!!
Eve: He let’s ah no! I was wrong! He is still coiled around the waist of Kid Ohio as this time he gets close to one of the corners he performs the fourth suplex but Ohio Slams Into The Turnbuckles!!!
Virtual Crowd: FOUR!!
Eve: Ranger grabs Ohio by a foot, dragging him to the center of the ring to attempt a cover!!
Referee: One! T-
Gavin Kirkland: Kick out at two!
Virtual Crowd: TWO!!!
Deadprez: Close but no cigar!
Eve: And the action continues with now James picking up Ohio and whipping him into the ropes! The attempt at a shoulder block missed as Kid ducks! He quickly turns to face James’ back and grabs his arms from under them! FULL NELSON SLAM! And just like that, the tables have turned! Ranger is holding is back in pain as we see Kid Ohio rush to a corner and taps his foot to the ground! He’s calling for the Picture Perfect Kick! He goes in but James blocks it with a grab of the foot before forcefully shiving it down and raise his own knee up to strike at Kid three times!
Deadprez: Sunset Triple!
Eve: Kid goes to the ground while James is looking to make good on this opportunity following a successful signature move! He goes up the top of the nearest corner and calls for the Advent Dawn! The Shooting Star Double Foot Stomp! He flies! Kid rolls away! James saw it coming so he parkour rolls then get up moving to face the Kid who clips him with a missile dropkick!! Down goes Ranger but he gets up fairly quickly although looking a bit woozy! Kid goes to him and kicks him in the midsection, he positions him for a DDT BUT RANGER SURPRISES HIM WITH A NORTHERN LIGHTS SUPLEX!! No pin following the move as Kid rolls right after the move holding the back of his head and rolls out of the ring which allows for Ranger to recover a little bit. He doesn’t give himself much time as he moves out of the ring to give chase to Kid Ohio who suddenly kicks him and-
Gavin Kirkland: WOAH!!
Eve: THE PERFECT CATCH SURPRISED JAMES!! THE JUMPING DDT ALL OF A SUDDEN DRILLS RANGER’S HEAD TO THE MAT ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE RING!! Ohio quickly tries to roll James inside the ring and goes for a cover!
Referee: One! Two!!
Deadprez: He Lifts The Shoulder Up!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Whaaat???
Eve: James is showing resiliency tonight which is good heading towards the Interwire Championship match at Road to Redemption! Kid Ohio groans in annoyance but then picks up James whipping him into the ropes before lifting him up for the Stun Gun! James lands chest first on the top ropes before landing on the ground this seems to be hurting a lot! James gets up helped by Ohio who throws a series of fists to his face and head before whipping him into the ropes! He tries a clothesline but Ranger brings Kid down with a reverse Russian leg sweep! Both men are down and Rangers gets back up first, throwing in a few kicks to the shin of Ohio trying to reduce his mobility! Smart move by James at this point in the match! James keeps the pressure on as he connects with a series of cross chops, Kid’s chest is getting a few shades of red before getting a mouthful of European uppercut which makes him back up to a corner! James follows with a combination of head and body boxing punches and ends it with another Uppercut!
Deadprez: Almost a Shoryuken!!
Gavin Kirkland: Don’t tell me you just…
Eve: Yes he has! Get over it! Ranger whips Ohio with force to the opposite corner of the ring, Kid slams hard. Ranger charges forth looking to go for a hard tackle to inflict more pain to the newcomer WHO CONNECTS WITH THE PICTURE PERFECT KICK!!! THE SUPERKICK CONNECTS!! RANGER DROPS LIKE A BAG OF POTATOES!!!
Gavin Kirkland: So Good It Can End Matches!!
Deadprez: OUT OF NOWHERE TOO!!
Eve: WILL IT BE ENOUGH TO PUT DOWN RANGER??
Referee: ONE! TWO!! THREE!!!
( DING! DING!! DING!!! )
( ‘King Is Born’ by Aloe Blacc plays over the PA system of World 1 Theatre while Perfection Personified is getting his arm raised by the official. Meanwhile, we see separate shots of Justin Windgate and Interwire Champion Consuela Rose Avar looking )
Gina Romano: The Winner Of This Bout! KID… O-HI-OOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: I’m floored!!
Deadprez: So is Consuela and Justin apparently! This should’ve been a match Ranger should’ve won!
Eve: Let’s not take away credits from Kid Ohio however, this is a massive win for him and only on his second match!
(Kid Ohio has a shit eating grin on his face as he makes his way up the ring celebrating. Meanwhile, James sits in the ring disappointed in himself, and he pounds the mat in some frustration.)
Deadprez: It seems James Ranger might have been caught looking ahead. He needs to realize he has an opportunity of a lifetime coming up in a few weeks and he can’t be caught looking ahead. He just got tripped up tonight but I think he bounces back and shows us he was the right man to challenge for the Interwire Championship.
Eve: I think he will too. After the speech he gave last week, I think he shakes the cobwebs out and gets back on track before Road to Redemption.
(日本語の水コマーシャルで、エリートのエリートだけが理解できます。)
(The scene opens to Kyra Phillips backstage.)
Kyra Phillips: It’s been quite an interesting start to Saturday Night Showdown, but we’re going to make things a bit more interesting with my next guest. She is one of the women, who will be representing the Showdown brand at Road to Redemption as she takes part of the Specialists Chamber. She’s had quite an interesting couple of months, but it’s going to continue in a few weeks as she has the chance to become Specialists Champion. Ladies and gentlemen…Harlow Reichert!
(‘Miss No Fucks Given’ Harlow Reichert steps into the camera shot. She has her confident swagger on her face as she’s had quite an interesting week. She went from wanting to get her hands on Andrea Valentine to having that opportunity denied to her to getting herself placed in a Specialists Chamber —it wasn’t an opportunity that she was anticipated to have, but who would she deny herself of an opportunity to not only prove to be the best wrestler in that Chamber, but becoming Specialists Champion? Don’t mind if she do.)
Kyra Phillips: Now, Harlow I know that you had your heart on setting to get your hands on Andrea Valentine after it may or may not have been implied that she had some connection to Xavier Williams getting attacked backstage as well as her attacking you after your match with her at Reasonable Doubt. It’s safe to say that we’ve gotten a different side to Andrea Valentine that the EAW Universe is not familiar with, but what are your feelings about everything that transpired with Andrea and how you’re intertwined with all of that?
Harlow Reichert: With everything that’s transpired with Xavier being attacked and Andrea responding in a way that doesn’t seem like her whatsoever, it sure feels like I’m in ‘The Twilight Zone,’ but if people didn’t really seem to understand what she had said in the matter of Xavier, I think it confirms that she did have something to do with him, but she’ll probably never be like: ‘I took out Xavier Williams’ and she’ll continue to..mock the situation and what for? Because it doesn’t concern her? She didn’t hold any emotional attachment to Xavier like I did? Me and Xavier haven’t conversed since Pain for Pride, but I still wanted him to succeed. I wanted him to climb back to the heights that he once stood as the ‘Best in the World,’ but now, his season possibly ended too soon. Who knows that if Xavier will even be motivated enough to go after Andrea? Who knows if he’ll ever be cleared enough to take that step in avenging himself? With Andrea’s match in jeopardy, I didn’t want to see someone as talented as her stay in the sidelines. With my planned opponent Cac boy, out of the company, I thought I was going to have no other choice than to be benched for Reasonable Doubt, but seeing Andrea without an opponent and me without an opponent, I figured ‘why not?’
(Harlow Reichert takes a deep breath before continuing.)
Harlow Reichert: I thought it was going to be nothing more than me stepping into the ring against one of the most decorated females in this company. I thought it would be a true honor to go up against a future Hall of Famer like Andrea Valentine. I thought it would be a learning experience combined with me proving to everyone that I would be able to hang with her inside the ring. We had a great match and I outsmarted her with a roll up and won the match. In Andrea fashion, she would give me my props and raise my hand up. I thought it would just be two women with the mutual respect for one another, giving each other props for putting each other through hell and back for a victory. It was a dumb mistake on my part. It’s dumb to think that I go into these matches with Elitists that I more than respect and I always end up looking like an idiot. Does respect mean nothing around these parts? Does putting on an amazing and flawless wrestling match not get the proper recognition or would people rather anticipate a clusterfuck ‘aRmAgeDdOn’ Hell in a Cell? Would people like to see Elitists whip each other like dogs with chains instead of chain wrestling? I saw my match with Andrea was a way to take the attention off these weird stipulations that should be left on Dynasty and Voltage, but it seemed like Andrea had other plans. Was it intentional on her part to attack me post match? No, I think that she fantasized that attack on her mind, but it was just a matter of when she completely lost her temper and who she attacked. Sadly, it was me.
Harlow Reichert: I was like everyone — ‘Why, Andrea, Why?’ It wasn’t the Andrea Valentine that I’ve known from my time on Empire and seen last season on Voltage, but I plan to knock some sense into her — after Road to Redemption.
Kyra Phillips: Ryan Wilson denied you the opportunity to put your hands on Andrea Valentine and that’s something that you don’t like, but he also placed an opportunity in your hands that may distract you from your issues with Andrea.
Harlow Reichert: After Road to Redemption is said and done, I’ll get my hands on Andrea Valentine. I don’t care if we’re holding championships or not, but this issue between the two of us isn’t finished. Not even by a little bit. At the moment, it seems like her focus is on the Answers World Championship Chamber. My focus is on the Specialists Chamber. As I said on Voltage, everyone knows how I feel about these matches, but as seen with Red Wallz at House of Glass, I am more than capable of handling myself in those types of matches. When it comes to a stipulation that’s out of my comfort zone, I can more than hold my own and it surprises a lot of people. Going into the match, people are going to be so quick to think that ‘Harlow doesn’t give a fuck about this match’ and eliminate me as a threat, but they shouldn’t be doing that? Even if my opponents don’t want to acknowledge it, but I am a huge threat going into the match. I am the only one on Showdown with a fighting chance of bringing that Specialists Championship home to the blue brand, but I don’t want to win the match for Ryan Wilson or for Showdown, I couldn’t care less about any of the stuff, but I want to win this match for me because last year at Road to Redemption, I won the PURE Championship and proved that I can be held to the highest standard possible and win.
Harlow Reichert: Now on social media, I’ve been hearing people use the hashtag ‘#ANDREAFEARSHARLOW, Harlow cracks a smile, but tries to go back to her normal self but I believe the hashtag that people need to get trending is this one — #HARLOWFORSPECIALISTSCHAMPION. Well, I really could care less about social media and that stuff, but I just want my opponents to realize that I’m not someone that you can be taking your eyes off of. Now, there’s a debate or two on whether I deserve to be part of a match like this, but my performances this season alone — Under Siege, Pain for Pride, House of Glass, Reasonable Doubt and my victories against former World Champions — Mr. DEDEDE, Cage, TLA and most recently, Andrea Valentine, make me a threat that everyone should be keeping their eye on. I’m not shocked that some of these fans are going back to their old ways of doubting ‘Miss No Fucks Given.’ It was the same energy that I was given at Road to Redemption last year. Despite me being confident about winning the match, there weren’t many people who were betting on me winning the PURE Championship, but I did that. It was an amazing moment and I would love for Road to Redemption to be another amazing moment in my career, but it’s going to be tough. You have the champion, Kasey Kaos, who stands on top, waiting for someone to try to knock her down. You have Candice Blair, who comes from an important family and someone who gave an awesome performance against Serena. You have Nina Bravo who has managed to shine on FPVs. You have Lisa Wren who may be the dark horse of this match and surprise us all. You have Alexis Chambers with a huge chip on her shoulder.
Harlow Reichert: But me? The best pure wrestler in the company. A woman, who eats, breathes and sleeps clean technical wrestling. I know, this match will be anything, but technical. It’s almost going to be a survival of the fittest, but I’m more than fit to take the reins from Kasey Kaos and become Specialists Champion. Since my return, it’s been kind of slow for me, but I put on the best performances possible. I still take former World Champions to their limit. I prove that I can hang with anyone in this company. The women in this Chamber need to be on a look out for that because I’m going into the match with guns blazing and my sights set on that Specialists Championship.
(With that, Harlow Reichert ends her promo with a confident smile on her face. She escorts herself out of the interview area, leaving Kyra Phillips by herself.)
Kyra Phillips: Well, you heard it from here. Let’s get back to ringside!
(The camera cuts back to the ring where Strawberry Steve and Woogieman are already in the ring awaiting the arrival of their opponents.)
Gina Romano: The following contest is scheduled for one fall!

(Ryan Wilson and Ronan Malosi make their way down the ramp and enter the ring as Ryan Wilson hands his microphone off to a member of the production crew at ringside as he and Ronan talk strategy to see who should start the match off first, ultimately playing Rock Paper Scissors to see who will start off, Ronan Malosi losing and exiting the ring and standing in his respective corner.)
(Ding! Ding! Ding!)
DeadPrez: It looks like Ryan Wilson is going to start this match off and across from him stands the great Woogieman! Ryan wastes no time as he rushes the much bigger Woogieman and knocks him to the ground sacrificing himself with a HUGE RUNNING CROSSBODY!!! RYAN WILSON STARTING THIS MATCH OFF WITH BREAK-NECK PACE AS HE PICKS WOOGIEMAN BACK UP TO HIS FEET JUST TO DROP WOOGIEMAN AGAIN WITH A VICIOUS HEAD TURNING SUPERKICK RIGHT ON THE BUTTON!
Eve: Ryan Wilson is out here showing exactly why he is the General Manager of Showdown and furthermore prove why he and Ronan Malosi deserve a shot at those Tag Team Championships– as Ryan Wilson once again picks Woogieman back to his feet just to whip him into the corner before completing the tag to Ronan Malosi!
Gavin Kirkland: Ronan Malosi enters the ring and both he and Ryan Wilson start kicking and stomping away at the current or former Big Boogie Bhampion– I gotta be honest with you guys.. I really don’t care enough to keep up with the shenanigans :wow: But nonetheless Ryan Wilson and Ronan Malosi are absolutely beating the holy hell out of Woogieman and— RONAN MALOSI GRABS WOOGIEMAN BY HIS NECK AND—
DeadPrez: MY GAWD! RONAN MALOSI JUST NECK TOSSES THE WOOGIEMAN FROM THE CORNER TO THE CENTER OF THE RING! WHAT A DISPLAY OF STRENGTH THERE FROM THE HOT TAKE KING! AND WOOGIEMAN IS SQUIRMING AROUND AND HOLDING HIS BACK AS HE SCREAMS IN AGONY! RONAN MALOSI PICKS WOOGIEMAN UP AND…HOLY— RONAN MALOSI RUNS FORWARD AND DAMN NEAR KNOCKS WOOGIEMANS HEAD OFF AS HE CONNECTS WITH A WICKED LARIAT THAT HAS BOTH LITERALLY AND PHYSICALLY TURNED WOOGIEMAN INSIDE OUT!
Eve: Ronan Malosi scrambles to make the cover!!!!
ONE!!!!!!!
TWOOOOOOO!!!!!
THR——-
Gavin Kirkland: DID…DID WOOGIE KICKOUT? NO. Ronan Malosi breaks his own pin attempt just to walk over to the corner and tag in Ryan Wilson????!! Just a few short weeks ago these two were trying to kill one another now they’re actually able to be on the same page and work together???
DeadPrez: Nonetheless Ryan Wilson happily accepts the invite and enters the ring as Ronan walks over to pick up the helpless Woogieman- who he then sends towards Ryan Wilson.. WHO NEARLY DECAPITATES WOOGIEMAN WITH A ENZIGUIRI!!! Woogieman is in bad shape and he desperately needs a tag…but look in his corner! Strawberry Steve isn’t even on the apron!
Eve: Not just that, Strawberry Steve isn’t even paying attention to this match! He has his phone out and he’s sitting by the bell keeper! What could he possibly be doing that’s more important than tagging with ‘The Great’ Woogieman!?!?
Strawberry Steve(off mic): Hmm.. I might as well do some tasks or something. I’ll go electrical— wow… he killed me? Not cool man.. Not cool. What the hell even is a.. Killdriver?
Gavin Kirkland: It looks like StrawBerry Steve is playing Among Us… and he doesn’t seem to be too good at it either. Meanwhile, in the ring, Ronan Malosi and Ryan Wilson have Woogieman in the corner and both men once again start taking turns delivering punishment as Ryan Wilson instructs Ronan Malosi to use his strength to Irish whip him into the corner delivering more devastation to their opponent.
DeadPrez: Ronan Malosi runs towards the ropes and using his inertia he whips Ryan Wilson into the corner– the same corner where Woogieman is seated and barely responsive and Ryan Wilson BLASTS WOOGIEMAN WITH A SEATED SENTON THAT RATTLES WOOGIEMAN!!!!
Eve: Ronan Malosi exits the ring and waits patiently on the apron as Ryan Wilson walks over and Tags him in— Ronan Malosi is now the legal man… RONAN MALOSI PICKS WOOGIEMAN UP….DEATH-RO!!! RONAN MALOSI CONNECTS WITH THE DEATH-RO AND THAT HAS GOT TO BE IT!
Gavin Kirkland: Wait Ronan Malosi is telling Ryan Wilson to enter the ring… Are these two experimenting to see the extent of their chemistry with one another? RONAN MALOSI PICKS UP WOOGIEMAN…. AND DROPS HIM FOR A VICIOUS FLAP JAC— NO ON THE OTHER END RYAN WILSON GRABS THE HEAD OF WOOGIEMAN AS HE’S ON HIS WAY DOWN AND CONNECTS WITH A CUTTER…FLAPJACK CUTTER—- I BELIEVE THESE TWO CALL IT; CHAIN REACTION!!!!! EITHER WAY IT CONNECTS AND RONAN MALOSI HOOKS THE LEG OF WOOGIEMAN!!!!
ONE!
TWOOOOOO!!!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!
(Ding! Ding! Ding!)
Gina Romano: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN YOUR WINNERS….. CHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAIIIIIIINNNNNEEEEDDDDDDD FUUUUUUURRRRRRYYYYYYY
(‘ I Prevail’ by Bow Down begins playing as Ryan Wilson and Ronan Malosi celebrate their win before Ryan Wilson asks for two mics from the ringside production crew.)
Ryan Wilson: Cut the music, cut the music. Cut it.
(‘I Prevail ‘ fades out as Ryan Wilson hands a mic over to Ronan Malosi who genuinely looks confused and surprised but takes the microphone from Ryan Wilson regardless.)
Ryan Wilson: Ronan.. I know you barely even had to exert any effort in defeating the ruffians we just dismantled. But I want it to be known that if we can work like that against The Realm those tag team championships will be right where they belong.. Around our waists. But before we get to that, I’d like to say something that I’ve been putting off for a really long time.
(Ronan looks genuinely curious as to what Ryan is talking about as they exchange inaudible words back and forth between one another off-mic before Ryan Wilson places his microphone back to his mouth to say….)
Ryan Wilson: I forgive you.
(The World 1 Theatre Crowd shifts from booing to complete dead silence as Ryan Wilson reiterates on what he just said, as Ronan Malosi processes what he’s just heard.)
Ryan Wilson: Ronan… buddy. I forgive you. I forgive you for everything. Crashing my show, creating havoc for my brand. Challenging my roster and myself. Trying to take my job, involving my family in this, people I care for- going after people I’m close to. I forgive you, Ronan.
(Ronan Malosi pauses a minute to let the reality of what Ryan Wilson just said dawn on him before he picks up his microphone to retort.)
Ronan Malosi: I.. I’m not too sure how to respond to that Ryan. I mean mainly I’m happy to hear that and more than anything I wish to express my gratitude at the fact that you’ve allowed me the chance to have this opportunity of reconciliation and I’m sorry for any damage and pain that I’ve caused.
(Ryan Wilson expresses his satisfaction at hearing Ronan’s apology before spreading his arms inviting Malosi in for a hug to which Ronan mutually agrees — as the World 1 Theatre crowd boo’s while the two villainous sycophants hug in the ring before Ronan picks up his microphone to speak again.)
Ronan Malosi: But let it be known, I gave little to no effort picking apart our opponents here tonight Ryan when we face those two little girls, I promise you it’ll be so much easier. They won’t even know what hit them.
Ryan Wilson: Ah! My thoughts precisely. So I’m aware that you have your own show.. Hot Takes, and you know that I too have a show of my own; The Ryan Wilson Show. All throughout today, I’ve had this lingering thought.
Ronan Malosi: About what?
Ryan Wilson: Why don’t we combine both of our shows into one and call it The Rated R&R Show. The very first of it’s kind… and just to add a little flair… for the very first episode of the show I say we extend an invitation to… The Realm.
(The World 1 Theatre erupts in cheers at the idea of The Realm and Chained Fury being in the same ring at the same time as Ronan Malosi expresses his excitement for the opportunity ahead of him.)
Ronan Malosi: Well there you have it, ladies. You’ve been issued a VIP pass to the very first edition of the Rated R&R Show, hosted by Ryan Wilson and Yours truly… we’ll see you here next week… if you’re brave enough to show.
(Ronan Malosi and Ryan Wilson laugh amongst each other as they exit the ring to ‘ I Prevail ‘ by Bow Down)
(Camera pans over to Strawberry Steve still playing Among Us clueless that his match is over and has been for the last 10 minutes- before finally cutting to commercial.)
( #EAWCares ad plays talking about the importance of mental health and understanding situations regarding it.)
(The camera pans backstage where Lucas Johnson is walking backstage with his manager, Albert Hitchman following behind. Albert is trying to get his client to stop and talk to him for a quick second.)
Albert Hitchman: Besides during your venting this past past, you have shut me out, I need to talk with you Lucas.
Lucas Johnson: There’s nothing to talk about.
Albert Hitchman: Clearly there is if you’re trying to shut me out.
(Albert Hitchman turns Lucas around and Lucas doesn’t look too pleased.)
Lucas Johnson: I’m getting sick and tired of it Albert. I was supposed to have a bright future in this place. When I came back, I was supposed to have a redemption story by claiming that PURE Championship. It’s just been nothing but a slippery slope for me ever since then with loss and after loss, with a couple victories sprinkled in every now and then. It just has me thinking to myself, when is it my turn to eat at the table? When is it my turn to cash in these royalty checks and become a champion in this company again? I had that chance last week. I had Jon Kelton beat, but I ended up on the losing end once more. And then to make things worse, you cost me the match last week, and that cost me a chance at redemption inside the Extreme Elimination Chamber. I wanted that more than anything in the world, and you were the main cause of why I’m not there. Do you have anything to say for yourself?
Albert Hitchman: You seriously can’t be blaming me for all your failures?
Lucas Johnson: Look what you did for Scott Diamond and how you took his career to amazing heights.
Albert Hitchman: Scott Diamond is a Hall of Famer for a reason. You are where you are for one reason only, LUCAS JOHNSON! You need to seriously get over yourself and quit playing the blame game because that’s when we know you’re grasping for straws at this point blaming someone else. Did I get in your way one time, yes, but don’t act like this entire rollercoaster is my fault. I got you that PURE Championship match when you came back against Harlow. I got you the championship match at Odyssey, and I got you that match last week, YOU just couldn’t capitalize. Bitching and moaning right here isn’t going to change anything. You are just giving your opponents more ammo and more power to underestimate you. You will let it go to your head and they’re gonna take advantage of you.
(Lucas Johnson rolls his eyes.)
Albert Hitchman: You hired me for a reason. And there’s a reason despite all your setbacks dating back to our partnership and your setbacks that I haven’t given up on you. Because I see value in the name “LUCAS JOHNSON.” I see value and so much potential. But the question is, do YOU see it in yourself? Enough with the self pity party because nobody is going to feel bad or take pity on you. It’s about that time you either wake up, or people are going to walk all over you in this company until you decide to throw in the towel.
Lucas Johnson: What are you trying to say?
Albert Hitchman: Scott Diamond made people fear him. Scott Diamond has the it factor that you somehow lost. Whatever happened to that killer instinct of wanting to finish the match early by using what you do best, submissions? Whatever happened to the guy who took on Hades the Hellraiser in a Buried Alive match. Whatever happened to the guy who took Lethal Consequences to his limit in his own backyard, Midsummer Massacre? Whatever happened to the former New Breed Champion? What happened to the guy who was chosen to reignite the Young Lions Cup? I had high expectations for you when I signed you on as a client and you’ve done nothing but show this is a bad investment. I don’t see it that way though. The only way you will EVER do anything is if you stop blaming everybody else, take some responsibility, and then release your inner Wrestling Machine and show you still have that killer mindset that you had lost for a while. I still believe in you, but do you believe in yourself?
(Lucas Johnson rolls his head back.)
Lucas Johnson: You’re right. All these losses are just as bad for you are they are for me. I understand the opportunities you have given to me and I don’t step up to the plate. I remember those days when I was considered a rising star. I remember all of it. I will do anything to get back to that status, and I will do anything to become a champion in this company again. You’re absolutely right that I lost something inside of me. I need to find it again and I need to make a statement that I’m here to stay and that the world has only just seen the beginning of Lucas Johnson. And it starts right here, right now inside that ring with Mr. Business.
(Lucas walks off as his manager follows closely behind with a sinister smirk on his face as the camera then fades to Gina Romano standing inside the ring.)
Gina Romano: The following contest is scheduled for ONE FALL!
Virtual Crowd: ONE FALL!!!
(“Business Men” by 30Kingz hits to boos from the crowd.)
Gina Romano: Introducing first from Columbus, Ohio weighing in at 161 pounds he is “The Jeff Bezos of EAW” MRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR BUSINESS!!!
(Mr. Business comes out to the ring looking like he means business.)
Gavin Kirkland: Mr. Business remained entirely silent this week. He must be very focused on getting the job done.
Deadprez: Well he seems very focused on handling his business.
Eve: I hope that he gets his ass kicked tonight just because I have to endure these terrible puns.
(The camera cuts to show that Maxwell and Bashar Jackson are on commentary also.)
Maxwell: What a stooge this guy is. I mean he is the kind of guy who would be a wage slave for my father. He works so hard and is supposedly a CEO but he probably one of the lesser ones. I mean class mobility isn’t really a thing and we are all better for it.
Bashar Jackson: Well if it was me I would have talked all kinds of shit about my opponent this week but I guess this guy Mr. Business is just different huh. But I am built different and built better. I guess he can do shit how he likes tho.
(“Young and Bitter” by Hot Tag Media hits to boos from the crowd.)
Gina Romano: And his opponent from Long Island, New York weighing in at 197 pounds “The Wrestling Machine” LUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCAS JOHNSON!!!!
(Lucas Johnson makes his way to the ring mocking Mr. Business and saying he has no business being in the ring with him.)
Gavin Kirkland: Lucas Johnson looks like he has locked onto his prey and he is being accompanied by Albert Hitchman here tonight as per usual.
Deadprez: Earlier we saw a heated discussion between Lucas and Albert and you have to wonder if that is weighing heavily on his mind going into this match.
Eve: Indeed Albert apologized for costing Lucas the match last week but I am not quite so sure that Lucas accepted the apology. But it looks like they have made up at least for now as Lucas is not protesting Albert’s presence in accompanying him to the ring tonight.
Maxwell: He is too soft for my liking. Honestly I have no problem just firing my lackeys. I mean can you really say they are people? If someone works for me they better be causing good things to happen to me or they just aren’t worth my time.
Bashar Jackson: Nah fam you gotta stay true to your homies. Like this Albert guy and Lucas have been thru some real shit together. That means something. That’s that truth.
(DING! DING! DING!)
Gavin Kirkland: The match is underway as Mr. Business pokes Lucas Johnson hard in the eyes and goes for a Small Package!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!! TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: Kickout by Lucas Johnson. Wow. Almost got an upset with that surprise rollup there from Mr. Business!!! Maybe the reason he was quiet all week is because he wanted to trick his opponent into thinking he was afraid of him. All strategic n shit.
Bashar Jackson: I like that. I like that a lot. But it didn’t work. I don’t like that. Now Mr. Business has to pay!
Eve: And Lucas Johnson fully intends to make him! Hard right hands from Lucas into the face of Mr. Business who is knocked to the mat. Now Lucas dropping his knee onto the neck of Business and choking him out with his boot. Business cannot even breath but Lucas is not letting up. At least he wasn’t until the referee made him. Business tries to scramble away but Lucas drops a knee onto his leg and drags him back. Lucas pulls Business all the way back up and drops him with a Spinebuster. Lucas runs the ropes and flips off them with a Springboard Elbow Drop. Lucas now with the quick cover!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEE! TWOOOOOOOO!
Maxwell: Ah well it would appear Mr. Business is putting up further fight. Pointless I say much like this whole contest but of course it would have been over already had I been involved in the match.
Gavin Kirkland: Well that would be nice. But both men back up and locking up as this match is not yet over. Lucas Johnson gains the advantage shoving Mr. Business back into the corner and beating him with forearms to the face. Lucas whips Business across the ring. But Business reverses it! Lucas off the ropes however as he slams his forearm into the head of Business taking him down. Lucas climbs up to the top rope. Flying Body Splash off the top! It connects! The cover by Lucas Johnson!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!! TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!
Eve: Kickout by Mr. Business! Business not doing so hot out here this week but props to him for at least not giving up that easily. However, Lucas Johnson has this one in the bag if his opponent cannot manage to mount some offense soon here! Business back up but Lucas is waiting and takes his head off.
Bashar Jackson: LARIATOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Deadprez: Knee Strike to the head from Lucas Johnson on Mr. Business who seems to have opened a gash on the back of his head. Lucas reaches down into the bloody hair and yanks it back pulling Business up into a Dragon Sleeper. But Business is fighting out of it! Hard elbow strikes to the midsection of Lucas as he fights back. He whirls around… but Lucas just knocks him out with an Axe Handle Smash to the face! Lucas drags Business into the corner and begins repeatedly bashing his head into the turnbuckle padding. He grabs him from behind yanking him back into the ring hooking his head… REVERSE DDT CONNECTS!!
Maxwell: Alright! Now you can pin him and put this lowly opponent out of his misery! Or not… I mean I guess if you aren’t smart enough to listen to my wise words.
Gavin Kirkland: Lucas Johnson pulls Mr. Business back up and connects with a hard knee to the gut flipping Business over his leg to the mat. He grabs him from behind and begins delivering a series of hammer blows to the chest. Business tries to fight out of it back up to his feet… but Lucas grabs Business from behind and tosses him with a momentous German Suplex! Lucas grabs Business setting him up on the top rope and delivering strikes keeping him up on top. But Business is fighting back. Hard thumb to the eye by Lucas puts an end to that. Lucas now climbing up onto the top turnbuckle as well. He hooks the arm of Business!!! CAN HE HIT IT?!?!?
Bashar Jackson: OH LAWD! MASSIVE SUPERPLEX SHAKING THE WHOLE RING! LUCAS HAS GOT THIS MATCH ALL DONE IN! THE COVER!!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!! THRRRRRRRRRRR-
Maxwell: Oh shit! He actually kicked out!
Eve: Well remember last week Mr. Business was all running his mouth about how he belonged in the main event! If he can take a beating like that and still kick out maybe he actually has a point!
Deadprez: Lucas Johnson is shocked but he isn’t going to be shook. He pulls Mr. Business up to his feet and rakes the eyes. Ignoring the scolding from the referee he shoves Business back against the ropes. Business falls back… right into a big Claymore Kick from Lucas Johnson! Lucas then applies the Twister Lock! That devastating submission hold has been locked in! Can Business hold on?!?! I’m not so sure that he can!
Maxwell: MR. BUSINESS TAPS OUT! IT’S ALL OVER!
(DING! DING! DING!)
Gina Romano: Here is your winner… LUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCAS JOHNSONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(“Young and Bitter” by Hot Tag Media hits to boos from the crowd as Lucas Johnson has his arm raised in victory. Albert Hitchman cautiously enters the ring to celebrate the match but Lucas still has his eye on him.)
Deadprez: Awww shucky ducky Lucas give the man a break! Everyone makes mistakes! Albert Hitchman has always had your back man!
Eve: Well I don’t know if I would have trusted Albert Hitchman to begin with but tonight Lucas was able to handle business without him. However, Albert was there for moral support and maybe that is what really matters.
Gavin Kirkland: What really matters is that Mr. Business was unable to handle The Wrestling Machine this week!
Maxwell: Exactly. Now what is it you were saying about how this guy was running his mouth last week about being a main eventer? Holy shit he is not even close! I mean if this is considered main event level in EAW then my path to the World Championship is going to be even easier than I thought it would be.
Bashar Jackson: I hate to agree with Maxwell but I sadly do. Mr. Business that was an absolutely trash showing this week especially after all the shit you talked last week. I mean you are just embarrassing yourself and you are going to have to step it up. Everyone has a bad week but yo if you let opportunities like this slide by then guys like myself are going to pick them up and run with them. Looks like my spot around here is safe tho. Mr. Business I am not impressed!
(Mr. Business is shown slowly walking backstage licking his wounds as Lucas Johnson celebrates in the ring.)
Eve: WHOA!!!!
(Maxwell and Bashar begin to come to blows next to the announce table after Bashar had gotten in the face of Maxwell and Maxwell shoved him away.)
Deadprez: The camera didn’t catch that, but Bashar Jackson just got into the face of Maxwell and Maxwell didn’t appreciate it, and now they’re going at it here ringside, and now Maxwell picks up and throws Bashar Jackson into the steel steps!!! MAXWELL IS FEELING FIRED UP!! MAXWELL THEN THROWS BASHAR INSIDE THE RING!
Eve: BASHAR WALKS RIGHT TO LUCAS, AND THEN LUCAS GRABS HIM BY THE HEAD AND THEN THROWS HIM OVER THE TOP ROPE!! LUCAS LOOK BEHIND YOU — MAXWELL LOOKING FOR THE LARIAT–BUT LUCAS DUCKS IT AND RUNS OFF THE ROPES AND CONNECTS WITH THE CLAYMORE KICK!!! MAXWELL IMMEDIATELY RETREATS FROM THE RING AND MAKES HIS WAY UP THE RAMP AS BASHAR IS AT THE TOP OF IT! LUCAS STANDS TALL AS ALBERT PATS HIM ON THE BACK!
Deadprez: Maybe Lucas was on to something when he said he needed to wake up and find that Lucas Johnson again. He just picked up a momentum building win and then cleared the ring!
???: ENOUGH!!!
(Showdown Consultant Alissa Brady walks out.)
Alissa Brady: Okay, clearly Maxwell, Mr. Business, and you Mr. Bashar, have some issues you guys need to work out. And I just got confirmation from the General Manager Ryan Wilson, that at Road To Redemption, there’s going to be a special Eliminations Match between all three brands. We will know more details as time goes on the next few weeks, but what we know now, is that the three of you will be added to that match, and maybe you can get that hostility towards each other out of your system.
Alissa Brady: And you know what, Lucas, you, my former baby. From what you showed tonight, you deserve a spot in that match also. So you’re in as well! If you show that aggressiveness you did tonight in that match at Road to Redemption, who honestly stands in your way?
(Albert once again pats his client on the back.)
Alissa Brady: Thank you, and I bid you all a farewell.
Deadprez: Wow! An announcement that there will be an Elimination Match with all three brands. We just found out the first four competitors in it. I wonder what else is in store and who else is going to compete inside of it.
Eve: More details over the next several weeks going into the event.
(The camera fades to a commercial for Hades the Hellraiser making his very first TikTok video.)
(The camera fades backstage where James Ranger is shown texting on his phone, clearly disappointed from his loss.)
(A few seconds later, in walks the Interwire Champion, Consuela Rose Ava into the shot. She is wearing casual attire with the Interwire Championship draped across her shoulder. She has a look of pity for James.)
Consuela Rose Ava: Don’t beat yourself up over that loss James.
James Ranger: He just caught me off guard, trust me, it won’t happen again.
Consuela Rose Ava: You can’t let him catch you off guard. You’re about to enter one of the biggest opportunities in your life, and you can’t be caught looking ahead thinking Kid Ohio was just gonna be an easy win. People already thought of you as an easy target to pull that “you don’t deserve this opportunity” card, and you just gave them ammo.
James Ranger: No worries, I didn’t work this hard to get this opportunity at Road to Redemption just to feel sorry for myself when I lost a match I should have won out there. I’ll give Kid Ohio credit where it’s due, he beat me fair and square and there’s nothing I can do about that. If anything, that loss makes me an even bigger underdog than I was before when I won this contract to have the right to face you. The odds went lower most likely when it was announced Justin Windgate was adding himself to our championship match. None of it will phase me because I will do exactly what I did at Reasonable Doubt, which is shock the world. I’m on the rise back up here and I’m gonna show this loss was just a trip up, and that I will become the next Interwire Champion at the appropriately named, Road To Redemption.
Consuela Rose Ava: That’s good to hear. I heard you sometimes let losses get you down. I just wanted to make sure that wasn’t the case. If you were, I was going to make sure to tell you to remember that you won that ladder match because you deserved it and you put in the work, and that you are facing me for a reason. If I am going to break the Interwire Championship record, I want to do it against people at their very best. I want no excuses from anybody. I want that James Ranger from Reasonable Doubt to show up at Road to Redemption. I want you to give me the fight of your life, and I promise, you will get mine.
(Footsteps are heard, both Consuela and James turn their head and see Justin Wingdate entering the frame.)
Justin Windgate: As you guys have heard by now, I’m apart if your guys match you guys were looking forward to.
Consuela Rose Ava: Yeah, that was an interesting way to cahs in the contract.
Justin Windgate: I mean, I assumed you of all people would be okay with it. You wanna beat the best to secure the greatest title reign. I heard you guys talking last week about how you guys want this to be a straight up match where no shenanigans are involved and you guys decide who a winner is in a true and fair way. You guys are two of the people I know who share those same values with me. Just like both of you, I want to beat the very best to become the best. I knew I didn’t want to wait and sit on this contract and use it as a crutch. I wanted to use it and I have what it takes to go out there and get it done, and to leave the same way I entered the year, a champion. You guys might have had your minds set on facing one another in a one on one fight, but this was something I felt I had to do. And my plan is for this to be a full circle moment for you Consuela, as you won that championship with the 24/7 Contract, and you will lose the championship for the very same reason, coming up short of your goal of becoming the longest reigning Interwire Champion.
Consuela Rose Ava: I admire it Justin. You said it yourself as have I on countless occasions, I want to beat the best in order to secure my legacy with this championship on my shoulder. Adding a competitor like yourself into this match makes it more difficult for me, and it will only make it that much sweeter when I take both you and James here down. I sat on that contract for so long because I wanted to pick the right moment. You had the contract for barely over a week, and you didn’t waste any time. I’m not criticizing you for it either because you felt this was the right time, competing against two of the best Showdown has to offer in this division. There’s no better way to put yourself on the map than winning the championship in a cash in where you let the champion know ahead of time, in a match where you don’t even have to be pinned to lose this cash-in opportunity. I dig it Justin, but I am going to tell you right now that even though you thought it was the right moment, I’m going to show you it was far from because the way I am feeling and how much I’m motivated to retain, nobody is going to stand in my way Justin.
Justin Windgate: That’s the fire and confidence I like to see. Honestly, another reason I cashed in right now is because I didn’t know how much longer you were going to be the Interwire Champion, and I knew with both of our values of hard work and doing things the right way, I wanted to be the one to take it off of you. I wanted to be in a fight with the both of you. James over here is somebody I respect, and you guys have been building this match up, and I wanted to be apart of it. I could easily just pick the bones of the winner after the match for an easy title victory, but where’s the fun and satisfaction in that knowing you didn’t truly earn it? My first championship reign didn’t last very long many years ago. Since I came back, I’ve done nothing but show just how good I am and how high my ceiling in this company is. My New Breed Championship was only a taste, and now I take the next step in my career at Road to Redemption when I become the new Interwire Champion.
James Ranger: Let me just tell you both right now. People look at this match and they see me as an outsider looking at this marquee matchup between the two. After my loss tonight, that take might have gained some traction. I’m going to do everything in my power to prove that wrong. I’m going to prove no matter how many obstacles are thrown in my way, I’m going to overcome them all and capture my first championship in this company. I’m glad you’re here Justin, because it’s a challenge that’s going to push me past my normal boundaries. It’s a challenge where I’m going to need to go above and beyond to prove I’m championship material, and I can’t stress it enough how ready I am. Both of you are great competitors and I’m sure you guys will hold championship gold again in the future, but it ain’t going to happen if I have anything to say about it. I was an underdog in the past, I’m an underdog in this match, and I’ll be an underdog my entire reign as the Interwire Champion. Both of you need to know one thing about and this entire match and that is…expect the unexpected.
Justin Windgate: Well, I was in your shoes a couple of times James, as have I in your Consuela. This is going to be a match where in the end result, we all know they deserved it. I will go to hell and back to make sure I am the one standing with the Interwire Championship in my hands, knowing I made the right call cashing in my 24/7 Contract not only this quickly, but in advance to the champion. This is my moment, and neither one of you are gonna stand in my way of accomplishing my goal.
(Justin Windgate backs away out of the frame and after several seconds, Consuela nods her head before she looks back at James Ranger before she also backs out of the shot. Now it leaves James Ranger sitting alone in the backstage area.
James Ranger: Keep letting them doubt, it only fuels me.
(The camera pans to the ring where we see that Gina Romano is standing in the middle of, with a mic in hand.)
Gina Romano: The following contest is scheduled for…ONE FALL!
Virtual Crowd: ONE FALL!!!
(“Runnin” by 21 Savage and Metro Boomin begins to play over the PA System and Bronson Daniels begins making his way to the ring under a mostly positive and loud ovation from the virtual audience.)
Gina Romano: Introducing first! Hailing from Cocoa Beach, Florida, weighing in at 210 pounds…he is “THE EUPHORIC MACHINE” BRONSON DANIELS!!!
Deadprez: Here comes Bronson Daniels! And dawg, what can I say about this man that hasn’t already been said? Bronson Daniels is a phenomenal competitor in between those ropes and you have to assume that his New Breed Title run is only the beginning for him. Sky’s the limit for this guy!
Eve: I’d agree with that! And if Bronson Daniels is able to defeat SKA tonight, he’d put himself in some pretty elite company inside that Extreme Elimination Chamber. And who knows? Who’s to say that Bronson couldn’t win said Extreme Elimination Chamber?
(Bronson settles into his corner, awaiting the arrival of his opponent which doesn’t take long as “Runnin” soon fades out and is replaced with “The Negative” by Silent Season as SKA makes his way to the ring to a mixed reaction from the audience.)
Gavin Kirkland: Speaking of sky’s the limit, here comes SKA! Who promised last week that he’d get his name to start meaning something around here and even prove why he’s dubbed himself “The Elite Answer.” And a spot in the Extreme Elimination Chamber is certainly one way to achieve that.
Deadprez: Yeah, SKA has all eyes on him and that’s when you wanna show out the most. He beats someone the caliber of Bronson Daniels, he definitely gets a feather in his cap and he definitely gets his stick raised here in EAW.
(DING! DING! DING!)
Eve: There’s the bell and things are underway as SKA extends the hand over to Bronson Daniels who seems a little wary on whether to shake it or not.
(Bronson Daniels goes to shake SKA’s hand but feigns it and brushes his dreads back with his hand instead and SKA isn’t too happy by that.)
Eve: Bronson Daniels playing mind games early as the two go in for a lock up but much like Bronson, SKA fakes it and instead delivers a kick to the gut which staggers Bronson back a bit. And SKA continues on the attack with a punch square on the nose of Bronson. Bronson is once again staggered back but SKA locks Bronson in a tight headlock here! He’s really wrenching on that thing. And when you’re in a headlock like that, it can be really hard to defend yourself in that position. But Bronson attempts to slip out of the headlock by rebounding SKA off the ropes who puts that to a screeching halt by dropping down to knee on the headlock. Still having it tightly locked in. Now, Bronson is looking for another way to escape as he begins delivering some strikes to the body of SKA to the best of his abilities and you can see SKA’s grip beginning to loosen. But he’s still keeping the hold locked on relatively tight.
Deadprez: Maybe not for long as Bronson delivers more strikes to the body and is able to hoist SKA up for a back Suplex! Which makes the man from Rotterdam favor his back before quickly getting up to his feet to regain advantage in this match up. And he looks to connect with a lariat but BRONSON CATCHES THE ARM AND BRINGS SKA DOWN TO THE MAT WITH A FUJIWARA ARMBAR! SKA is just a little bit too fresh for this move though as he quickly manages to grab the rope with his other arm, forcing Bronson to release the hold. The referee is able to create some separation as SKA regroups in the corner but Bronson Daniels quickly pulls him to the center of the ring to deliver a nice snap Suplex! Which brings SKA to a seated position while he holds his back and Bronson rebounds off the rebounds for a PENALTY KICK! Which brings SKA down to his back. And Bronson looks for the quick cover!
ONNNEEEEEEEE!
T-
Gavin Kirkland: Referee’s count doesn’t get very far as SKA manages to power out of the pinfall. Bronson seems to have been prepared for this as he begins attempting to trap the arm of SKA who quickly squirms out of whatever Bronson had in mind there and rolls out of the ring. SKA seems to be looking for a new game plan before entering the ring as his current one may not be working all that well against Bronson here.
Eve: Bronson backs up to give space to SKA to enter the ring who promptly does and is able to kick Bronson in the shin and find his mark with a stiff European uppercut that undoubtedly just jacked the jaw of Bronson Daniels who’s checking to see if he’s missing any teeth right now. And SKA lifts Bronson up onto his shoulders in a fireman’s carry position- TO WHERE BRONSON SLIPS OUT THE BACK AND WRAPS HIS ARMS AROUND SKA FOR SEEMINGLY A GERMAN SUPLEX! But before Bronson can even really lift SKA off the ground, SKA promptly delivers a stiff back elbow which releases Bronson’s German Suplex. SKA looks over to notice that Bronson has staggered over into the ropes and builds momentum to connect with the IED! RUNNING CORNER DROPKICK BY SKA! Which causes Bronson to stumble out of the corner long enough for SKA to kick him in the midsection and hook him up for THE MES-CU- BUT BRONSON PUSHES SKA OFF OF HIM BEFORE HE COULD POP OFF WITH THE CUTTER! AND BRONSON LEAPS IN THE AIR FOR THE MUSHROOM STOMP ON SKA WHO JUST BARELY SIDE STEPS IT! AND SKA SENDS BRONSON DOWN TO THE CANVAS WITH A STO! AND HE DOESN’T LOOK TO STOP THERE AS SKA SPRINGS OFF THE MIDDLE ROPE WITH A MOONSAULT! Some confidence falls over SKA as he hooks the leg of Bronson for the cover!
ONEEEEEE!
TWWWOO-
Deadprez: Bronson Daniels stays alive! And SKA could’ve sworn he had the victory there but he needs to keep pushing forward, and push forward he does as he begins ascending the top turnbuckle while Bronson Daniels remains downed from that moonsault. I don’t know what SKA could have up his sleeve here- BUT WE MAY NOT FIND OUT AS BRONSON SPRINGS TO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE AND BRINGS SKA DOWN TO THE MAT WITH A TOP ROPE SUPERPLEX!!! You can tell that move had its effect on both men as they rive in pain from that fall. SKA just a bit more than Bronson who is beginning to stir and realizes that he needs to make the cover before it’s too late. Bronson begins crawling over towards SKA who manages to roll over to the ring apron.
Eve: Nothing but great ring awareness from SKA but Bronson Daniels follows him out on the apron and pulls SKA to his feet- WHO PUSHES BRONSON BACK AND CAUSES BRONSON’S BACK TO HIT TO THE POST! AND SKA TAKES ADVANTAGE WITH A KICK TO THE GUT AND THE MES-CUTT CONNECTS ON BRONSON! TWIST OF FATE ON THE APRON, THATS THE HARDEST PART OF THE RING! :damn: And both men fall over to ringside! SKA is the first one up and he rushes Bronson Daniels into the ring where SKA looks to be signaling the beginning of the end as he begins lining up a clearly dazed Bronson Daniels. Who finds himself up on SKA’s shoulders in a torture rack position and I think it’s becoming clear to everyone what SKA is looking to hit as he TOSSES BRONSON IN THE AIR WHO IS ABLE TO COME CRASHING DOWN ON SKA WITH THE MUSHROOM STOMP! DANIELS DRIVING BOTH FEET INTO THE CHEST OF SKA! And I’ll tell you what, SKA is no stranger to that move as Bronson connected with it in their match at Reasonable Doubt. Only difference was: Bronson performed it off of a ladder then which damn near took SKA out of the ladder match entirely.
Gavin Kirkland: Yes, and meanwhile, SKA is rolling on the mat in pain, holding his chest. And Bronson Daniels takes this moment to climb to the top rope, a place where we know he’s comfortable at. AND DANIELS SOARS IN THE AIR WITH A DIVING ROLLING SENTON THAT COMES DOWN HARD ON SKA! Bronson hooks both legs and this could be the end as referee gets into position!
ONNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOO!
THREEEEEEEEEE-
KICKOUT!
Gavin Kirkland: SKA manages to stay in the match! Both men are doing their damnedest to stay in the fight tonight as they know what’s at stake. This match could be the only thing standing between them and their world title in the company.
Eve: Well, that and five other hungry competitors also looking to win world titles.
Gavin Kirkland: You’re right about that as Bronson brings SKA to his feet and gets him in a powerbomb position. Bronson attempts to hoist SKA up but SKA is showing some fight in him. Not looking to go up for this move at all and I can’t blame him as SKA. Who attempts to dump Bronson over his head with a back body drop but Bronson manages to counter with a sunset flip that SKA immediately rolls out of AND THIS TIME BRONSON GETS SKA UP AND DROPS HIM DOWN WITH THE POWERBOMB! BUT THAT’S NOT ALL AS BRONSON ROLLS SKA TO HIS KNEES AND MANAGES TO DELIVER A SICK BICYCLE KNEE STRIKE TO THE FACE OF SKA! A combination we’ve seen many times! Now Bronson begins to post in the corner, his eyes are dead set on SKA who’s he’s waiting to get back up to his feet. But that may be easier said than done as SKA has shown no movement since Bronson connected with that Powerbomb/bicycle knee combination on him. And I think it’s beginning to dawn on Bronson that SKA may be unconscious as he attempts a pin fal- BUT SKA ROLLS HIM UP FOR A SMALL PACKAGE!!!! Something I happen to know a thing or two about :mjlit:
Eve: :comeagain: NEVERMIND! THE REFEREE IS IN POSITION!
ONNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
THREEEE-
KICKOUT!
Eve: BRONSON BARELY MANAGES TO KICKOUT, SKA ALMOST CAUGHT HIM WITH THE ELEMENT OF SURPRISE AS BOTH MEN SCRAMBLE TO THEIR FEET WHERE BRONSON KICKS SKA IN THE HEAD WITH A ROUNDHOUSE KICK THAT CERTAINLY JUST SCRAMBLED HIS BRAIN! But SKA doesn’t lose his footing as he is able to catch Bronson with- OUCH! THE ROLLING ELBOW FROM SKA WHICH SENDS BRONSON REELING INTO THE ROPES MOMENTARILY BEFORE BOUNCING BACK TO BE HOISTED ON THE SHOULDERS OF SKA WHO HITS BRONSON WITH THE NÄHDÄÄN TAAS! GTS FROM SKA WHICH MAY HAVE BACKFIRED AS BRONSON STAGGERS THROUGH THE ROPES ALL THE WAY OUT TO RINGSIDE!
Deadprez: And I don’t think that was ring awareness, I think that was just pure luck on the side of Bronson Daniels. And you can tell SKA is annoyed by this occurrence as he clearly would’ve had the match won by now and if he hurries up to the outside, he could still have the match won as Bronson looks to be out cold.
Eve: SKA is attempting to bring Bronson back to his feet but it may be no use for SKA as it’s posing difficult to the 210 pounder back in the ring as he is just dead weight at this point! But while SKA is attempting to bring Bronson Daniels into the ring, he needs to be wary of the referees count who’s already at 5. But SKA is still looking to bring Bronson in the ring as he is looking to beat him by pinfall with the 1-2-3.
Referee: SIX…SEVEN…EIGHT..
Deadprez: It may be no use at this point as SKA attempts to break the count of the ref- BUT BRONSON DANIELS PULLS SKA BACK DOWN TO RINGSIDE! HE COULD BE PULLING THE SAME MOVE HE DID AGAINST RIPLEY AS BRONSON JUMPS INTO THE RING!
Referee: NINE!
Deadprez: WAIT! SKA PULLS BRONSON OUT JUST BEFORE HE COULD OFFICIALLY GET IN THE RING AND NOW BOTH MEN ARE AT RINGSIDE ATTEMPTING TO RUSH IN THE RING!
Referee: TEN!
(DING! DING! DING!)
(The bell rings and confusion falls over the EAW audience and the commentators as both men failed to meet the count!)
Gavin Kirkland: WHAT THE- Neither man beat the count?! Who’s gonna be in the Extreme Elimination Chamber now?!
Eve: I’m not sure, I’m not even sure SKA and Bronson Daniels themselves are as they even looked confused.
???: AHEM!
(Suddenly, the Showdown consultant Alissa Brady shows up on the stage with a microphone in hand. Looking to address the controversy.)
Alissa Brady: Well due to the referee’s decision, it seems that neither SKA and Bronson Daniels won in their match tonight. But fear not, as me and the brilliant General Manager of Showdown have come to an agreement that things will not end on a sour note. We have some news.
Alissa Brady: As a result of how this qualifying match ended here tonight, I’m announcing that BOTH Bronson Daniels AND SKA have qualified for the Extreme Elimination Chamber!
(Alissa finishes her speech and heads to the back as Bronson and SKA now stare each other down, knowing they’ll be fighting each other at Road to Redemption before we fade to black.)
(A commercial for Netflix starring Myles as it features his favorite movie “One Piece Film: Z” where his favorite character Sanji, has some interesting feelings about a de-aged Nami.)
(The scene opens in an unknown location with Kyra Phillips smiling.)
Kyra Phillips: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome my guest at this time….Jack Ripley!
(Jack is sitting six feet opposite of Kyra wearing his casual attire. He nods at Kyra with a small grin.)
Jack Ripley: Thanks for having me.
Kyra Phillips: Well, first question I have for you is, how is the ankle doing? We all saw you test it out last week and you even picked up the victory against Ronan Malosi.
Jack Ripley: Ankle injuries are a tricky thing. You don’t want to push yourself too hard or you’ll either re injury it or make it worse. But overall, I think I’m doing much better, and almost back to 100%. As you mentioned I did just beat Ronan last week, so I’d say I’m performing just about at where i want to be. But it’s a day by day process, so I’ll get be getting back to 100% very very soon.
Kyra Phillips: Well, it will be interesting to see if it will be fully healed by Road to Redemption. Speaking of that, you were originally supposed to be taking part in a match at Reasonable Doubt where you could have been fighting for the Interwire Championship. Unfortunately, a week before the event, you sprained your ankle in a training session. I just want to know, what was going through your head when you watched that ladder match from the sidelines? Did you think you could have easily beaten those three guys?
Jack Ripley: Fuck… That’s what I was thinking. All the expletives that I could think of, I was thinking of. You know I’ve had so many setbacks, especially these past 2 years, and it just felt like another setback that I couldn’t afford. I’ve had many opportunities, and lately I haven’t been able to capitalize on any. But, it only makes me hungrier, and it only makes me want to prove the doubters wrong that much more. Now no, I don’t ever go into a match thinking that it will be an easy victory, because once you’re out there you don’t know what to expect. I mean a repeat of when I faced off against Bronson Daniels could’ve happened for all I know. Wrestling isn’t some scripted story that we follow word by word; it’s a mystical beast that’s on its period, and you just do your best to make the roulette wheel fall in your favor.
Kyra Phillips: Would you say it was a blessing in disguise, maybe that you got hurt as it seems you’re in a better spot?
Jack Ripley: I wouldn’t say that at all. I wanted to become Interwire Champion. But God had other plans for me. That plan is finally overcoming that demon and becoming a World Champion.
Kyra Phillips: You fought Jamie this past season for the title at Midsummer Massacre and fell short. How are you preparing yourself this time along with four others to worry about?
Jack Ripley: Watching the match over and over again. Replaying it in my mind, picking apart the places that I went wrong, and trying to implement those lessons into this upcoming match. Look Jamie O’Hara bar none is one of the best Elitists of all time, and I know that. Being good isn’t good enough, being great isn’t good enough, being phenomenal isn’t good enough.. I need to be perfect. If I slip up one time, that could be the end of my hopes of becoming the World Champion at Road To Redemption. I’m not allowing myself to be looked at as the sad underachiever anymore. And I know that Jamie O’Hara is the gatekeeper to my success, and I must defeat him in order to achieve what I want to achieve. Not to take anything away from any of the other opponents in this match. All of them have a right to be in it, and I’m sure they have a chance of winning, just as I have. But I can’t take anything away from Jamie O’Hara, he has built a legacy, and cemented that legacy to proportions that no one else seems to be able to match. If I want to win, and really drive home the fact that I belong.. I have to beat him; and I will do everything in my power to do so.
Kyra Phillips: You were in this match last year for the EAW Title, and you were actually the first guy eliminated. I know how crushing that was for you. How are you feeling going into the match this year?
Jack Ripley: Yeah.. That sucked, thanks for reminding me! Nah, I’m kidding. Yeah last year I was in my world. I was in my own world where no one else mattered. And by that I mean I had one goal in mind and it centered around one man. Charlie Marr.. And I guess you could hear what I’m saying now, and misconstrued that as me making the same mistakes, but let me assure you; that’s not what’s happening. Though I know Jamie O’Hara is the one I must go through in order to win that title, I’m fully aware of the talent that will surround me in that ring. I’m not going to be taking my eye off of anyone when it comes to that chamber. See last year I was blinded by hate, by rage, and my own bitterness. I was blindsided by my sister, as I focused too much upon Charlie. This year I’m not blinded. I don’t hate anyone. I can see clearly, and I know what I must do in order to win. I didn’t forget last year; and I don’t think I ever will. That feeling of utter disappointment will live with me for the rest of my life, and serve as a lesson to never repeat. So yeah, last year was devastating.. And it was in that match that I got hurt, and disappeared until Grand Rampage.. I will refuse to have another repeat performance.
Kyra Phillips: It’s safe to say that winning the World Championship is at the top of your priority list. You have tried and have failed on a few occasions in the past. Why do you think this time is gonna be different? Why do you think Road To Redemption is finally the time Jack Ripley gets over the hump?
Jack Ripley: I can’t explain it. Honestly I can’t tell you what’s going to be different from last Road To Redemption.. Or my last fight with Jamie. My first match against Darkane; I was essentially a rookie to singles competition, and I hardly think I was ready for that opportunity. Road To Redemption last year my sister and Charlie stabbed me with a railroad spike or something… But I don’t want to make excuses; honestly what’s different this time is.. Time. I have had more experience since then, and I now have a good understanding of what I need to do. And honestly I never faced Jamie O’Hara before that match we had for the World Championship.. Now that I have experience against him, I have a better understanding of what to expect, and I think that can help me. But will I guarantee a victory? No, no I don’t think I will. I’ve made foolish remarks such as that before, and you know that puts way too much pressure on a person. I’m just going to say, that I like my odds, and I will use my past to dictate my present. But I will not be consumed by my past, and dwell on what once was, because that won’t help a thing. There’s already a lot of talent in this match, including the person that won the Extreme Elimination Chamber match on Voltage last year. Honestly i’m just excited to get in that ring, and back up what I say.
Kyra Phillips: Any last words to say to your opponents and to the rest of us going into the Chamber?
Jack Ripley: The Extreme Elimination Chamber isn’t for the faint of heart. I think if you go into this match with clouded judgement, or expectations of something, you might find yourself on the outs. I’m not allowing myself to make the same mistakes that I happened to make last year. I know all of you are top tier talents, and belong in this match. I know what all of you will probably bring to the table, saying that I’m a failure that just can’t win the big one. That I was undeservedly handed this opportunity. Well go ahead and think that. Keep thinking that because it’s that mindset that will keep you from winning this match. I am more motivated than I ever have been. Set back after setback has plagued me for the past year, and I’m ready to put it all behind me. I’ve said for quite some time now it only takes 1 match to make a wrestlers career. This could be that match to set the tone for my future. And I wonder, when I do win the World Championship, what will you all have to say then? The same boring rhetoric that I’ve had to endure for the past almost 2 years now.. Does it disappear? Do you finally find something else to say? Because I’ve said for a while, if all you can do is bring up the fact that I haven’t won the World Championship.. That’s a rather thinly veiled argument as to why I’m not one of the best in EAW. So, I implore you to give me the best you can; and I assure you, I’ll do the same.
Kyra Phillips: Thank you Jack. This truly was a pleasure, and good luck to you inside the Extreme Elimination Chamber!
Jack Ripley: Thank you Kyra, anytime.

( “Last Strike” by Polo G blasts through the speakers to a mixed reaction from the virtual crowd. Jon Kelton jerks the curtain and makes his appearance on the entrance way. He scans the ambience and atmosphere before making his way down the ramp and into the squared circle. )
Gina Romano: INTRODUCING FIRST! From Toronto, Ontario, Canada, weighing in at 210 pounds…. THE CHOSEEEEEEEN ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!! JONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN KELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLTONNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!
Eve: Jon Kelton has found himself with arguably one of the biggest opportunities of his career and that is vying for Jamie O’Hara’s EAW Answers World Championship at Road To Redemption. While he will be competing inside the hellacious Extreme Elimination Chamber structure, Jon Kelton has found a way to bounce back from losing his 24/7 Contract not so long ago. Jon Kelton has proven himself to be a formidable threat to Jamie’s championship reign, but as long as he maintains that ambition and passion for this business, we might as well see The Chosen One get his prophecy fulfilled in December.
( Jon Kelton mentally and physically prepares himself in his designated corner before “Roll With Me” by Charli XCX begins to echo throughout the World 1 Theatre. Andrea Valentine comes out to a humongous pop. She comes out with a confident smile and begins to stride down the aisle. )
Gina Romano: AND HIS OPPONENT! From Orlando, Florida, weighing in at 110 pounds.. AAANDDDDREAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA VALLLLENTINNNEEE!!!
Deadprez: Approximately a year ago from today, Andrea Valentine shocked the world and was able to walk out of the Extreme Elimination Chamber match with the EAW Championship. She kept that championship until Pain For Pride and a few weeks from now, she gets the opportunity to repeat history and to usurp Jamie O’Hara of his throne. However, the question is, does Andrea still possess that same ambition and passion from a year ago. Who knows!

( “Roll With Me’ by Charli XCX blasts through the speaker to a pop as Andrea Valentine gets up to her feet while the referee checks up on Jon Kelton. )
Gina Romano: AND HERE IS YOUR WINNER…. ANDDDDDDDDDDREAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA VALLLLLLLLLLLLENNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTI-
Eve: ANDREA VALENTINE IS NOW STOMPING DOWN ONTO THE CHOSEN ONE!! VALENTINE IS ORCHESTRATING A RAID OF STOMPS ONTO THE CHEST OF JON KELTON AS HE IS DEFENCELESS!! JON KELTON IS STILL FRESH OFF THE LOW BLOW AND VALENTINE IS TAKING ADVANTAGE OF IT!! VALENTINE IS JUST CHOPPING OFF THE BITS HERE!! VALENTINE GRABS BOTH FEET AND SPREADS THEM APART!! AND DRIVES HER FOOT IN BETWEEN!! ANOTHER LOW BLOW AS JON KELTON IS SCREAMING IN PAIN!!
Deadprez: ANDREA IS CHANNELLING THOSE INNER FRUSTRATIONS AND UNLOCKING THE DARK SIDE OF HER ONCE AGAIN AS SHE IS JUST UNLEASHING A HEARTLESS ASSAULT ONTO THE CHOSEN ONE!! IF ANDREA BRINGS THIS AGGRESSION TO THE CHAMBER, THEN JAMIE O’HARA’S CHAMPIONSHIP REIGN COULD COME TO A DEFINING END AT ROAD TO REDEMPTION!!
Gavin Kirkland: SPEAK OF THE DEVIL!! JAMIE O’HARA COMES FROM BEHIND AND GOES ON A FULL-ON SPRINT INTO THE DIRECTION OF ANDREA VALENTINE! THE SEXY ASS WORLD CHAMPION IS ON PURSUIT AS ANDREA RUNS UP THE RAMP AND EVADES THE WRATH OF THE ACE OF ELITE ANSWERS WRESTLING!! SHE HAS HER HANDS UP IN DEFENSE ON THE RAMP AS JAMIE O’HARA SLIDES BACK INTO THE RING AND GETS HIS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP BELT AND CHECKS ON JON KELTON!!
Eve: The referee is checking on Kelton after the ruthless attack courtesy of Andrea Valentine and Jamie O’Hara looks slightly worried! O’Hara checks up on Kelton after he retrieves his world championship as Valentine is out of here! Valentine went into the back after that assault! That was an amazing match, but it was cut short by Valentine playing dirty and taking advantage of the circumstances! An incredible main event otherwise! Jamie O’Hara definitely has his hands full come Road To Redemption!
Deadprez: WAIT!! ANDREA COMES FROM BEHIND AND DRILLS HIM WITH A POISON RANA!! ANDREA COMES FROM THE SHADOWS AND OUT OF NOWHERE AND CONNECTS WITH THE ATOMIC BLONDE MANEUVER!! JAMIE O’HARA DID NOT SEE IT COMING AS HE HAD HIS EYES FIXATED ONTO JON KELTON!! THIS IS WHY YOU ALWAYS WATCH YOUR BACK AS ANDREA VALENTINE IS NOW STOMPING DOWN ONTO THE WORLD CHAMPION! ANDREA WITH A RUTHLESS ASSAULT ONTO THE WORLD CHAMPION AS SHE NOW GRABS BOTH LEGS, SPREADS THEM OPEN AND STOMPS HIS SACKS IN!!! ANOTHER STOMP INTO THE BALLS AS ANDREA NOW GETS OUT OF THE RING AND GRABS A STEEL CHAIR FROM RINGSIDE!! SHE BRINGS IT INTO THE RING AND SMASHES KELTON IN THE HEAD WITH THE STEEL CHAIR!! KELTON WASN’T EVEN FULLY UP TO HIS FEET YET!!
Eve: ANDREA HOISTS THE STEEL CHAIR INTO THE HAIR AND SMASHES IT INTO THE HEAD OF THE SUPINE JAMIE O’HARA!! SHE THEN PROPS IT UP IN THE CENTER OF THE RING AND LEANS JAMIE AGAINST IT!! THE SUBCONSCIOUS WORLD CHAMPION IS USING THE STEEL CHAIR TO GINGERLY HELP HIMSELF UP TO HIS FEET AS ANDREA NOW RUNS THE ROPES, REBOUNDS AND SNATCHES JAMIE’S HEAD AS SHE SOMERSAULTS OVER!! AND DRIVES HIM AGAINST THE STANDING STEEL CHAIR WITH THE LOVE HAZE NECKBREAKER!! THE SPINNING CORKSCREW NECKBREAKER BREAKS THE STEEL CHAIR!!
Deadprez: Andrea is not finished yet as she picks up Jamie O’Hara’s EAW Answers World Championship! She grabs Jamie’s head and slides it beneath her head. SHE JUMPS UP INTO THE AIR!! AND STOMPS HIS HEAD DOWN ONTO HIS OWN CHAMPIONSHIP!!! SHE THEN SLIDES THE TITLE OUT AND HOLDS IT UP IN THE AIR!! COULD THIS BE SYMBOLIC FOR WHAT IS TO COME AT EXTREME ELIMINATION CHAMBER?!? WILL ANDREA VALENTINE FIND HERSELF BACK AT THE TOP OF THE UPPER ECHELONS ONCE AGAIN!!?
