Mikaela Street
(EAW intro plays)
(Showdown opens up with a recap of last week’s Super Showdown. TLA comes out promising he will come out Answers World Champion at Road to Redemption, as all of the challengers like Roberto, Harper, Kelton and Bronson, and finally Ruler, each one giving their reason for winning, and that is before Ruler sends his druids and a brawl happens between everyone before the opening match can start. Finally, things calm down and the match takes place, where Kelton and Bronson are able to succeed against TLA and Roberto. Mikaela has an interview with all of the Showdown participants for the Extreme Enigma Battle Royale with TJ, Brianna, Luis and Raeangel. Nikki Kimura defeats Brianna Hill after some cheeky distraction from Silas. Kyra Phillips has an interview with Charlie and Veena where they promise that they are winning so much more and achieving a lot more in the future, and that starts at Road to Redemption. Charlie versus Ruler ends in a Double DQ after the druids interfere. The Jaded Hearts brag and are confident yet again heading into another defense, as Pandora and Halsey interrupt them and once again warn them to not take them as a joke, that they will finally take their titles while Kassidy promises to end them once and for all. Ryan and Cody versus SOSA and Donovan ends in a No Contest as a brawl breaks out between everyone. Milli comes out, going over all of her opponents yet again and calls out her challengers to talk out with them, as KASAI, Holly, Ms. Extreme, Bea and Miku all come out and each give their piece about the match as Milli stands her ground and tells everyone to get ready to suffer a bankruptcy. And finally, in the main event, after a chaotic match, Veena is able to get the win against Miku.)
(The recap ends, and it is replaced with the song “Brick Wall” by a Day to Remember, as the camera pans around the inside of the SaskTel Centre in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Fireworks are shooting out of the stage and the whole crowd can be seen cheering and being excited for the show. The camera ends up panning over to the commentary table with Deadprez, Eve and Gavin Kirkland as the commentators start talking.)
Eve: WELCOME EVERYONE… TO SATURDAY NIGHT SHOWDOWN!
Deadprez: WE ARE BASICALLY TWO WEEKS AWAY FROM ROAD TO REDEMPTION, AND EVEN THOUGH WE ARE CLOSE TO A MONTH FULL OF SNOW, EVERY MATCH HEADING INTO THE EVENT IS HEATING UP!
Eve: We have a lot of incredible matches to look forward to tonight as well, we see Nikki Kimura go up against Roberto de la Rosa, TJ Alexander teaming up with Luis de la Rosa to go against Brianna Hill and Raeangel Guzman and we see Cody Maverick go against Charlie Marr.
Deadprez: The Answers World Champion TLA is in action as well against Ryan Joseph Wilson and in the main event, a stacked trios match! As the Unified Tag Team Champions The Jaded Hearts team with Harper Lee against the Universal Women’s Championship Milli Banks teaming with Jon Kelton and Bronson Daniels.
Gavin Kirkland: ENOUGH OF THAT, LET’S START OFF THE SHOW WITH THE BEAUTIFULLY TALENTED VEENA ADAMS!…And Charlie Marr too, I guess.
(“7 Rings” by Ariana Grande plays throughout the arena as the crowd cheers, some boo when the beautiful Veena Adams walks out, followed by Charlie Marr who is in action later tonight. They both come out to the ring and look like they have a lot to say.)
Deadprez: Ad Infinitum is here and they have a huge match against two other couples team, Fire & Ice which is Raven Roberts and Rex McAllister, the other being what they call themselves The Royal Elite which is Adam Lucas and Dr. Bethany Blue, both married couples and two of the best pairings in wrestling, but what we have in Veena and Charlie is definitely one of the better teams as well.
Eve: I totally agree, this Tri-Brand match is going to be incredible for all three brands, and Showdown has already dominated for the first time this season and look to do more.
Gavin Kirkland: Three beautiful women, but Veena gets the crown for me! That gives them the edge!
(Veena and Charlie both get in the ring as Veena has the mic and looks out into the crowd as the theme dies down.)
Veena Adams: It’s cold up here in Saskatoon. This seems like the place some big bruising lumberjack dude with a tattoo of a sword on his chest would have a ranch.
(The crowd cheers.)
Veena Adams: Anyway, Saskatoon, tonight is your lucky night because I am here to grace you with my presence! Oh… and Charlie too.
(Veena looks over at Charlie and winks as he smirks.)
Veena Adams: Tonight, Charlie will handle business with Cody Maverick, but until then there are a few things that we need to talk about. Road to Redemption. I have already handled Miku Sakai, and soon I will have Championship gold around my waist. Charlie as well, but we were tasked with representing Showdown and everyone is well aware that the last teams that both Charlie and myself led into the battle against the rest of the brands, well… WE WON. WE brought victories for the very FIRST time to Showdown at Territorial Invasion!
(The fans cheer as both Veena and Charlie Marr are proud of that accomplishment. Charlie now has the mic.)
Charlie Marr: Kennedy Street knew that the only two people that were capable of winning this Tri-Brand Triple Threat Tag Team Couples Match was Veena and I. We are former Champions, we have been on fire this entire season and past that, I Main Evented Pain For Pride and Veena WILL Main Event Pain For Pride maybe even this year, but we all know that this match is ours to win and theirs to lose. Rex McAllister is a bloody joke. I have had his number his entire career. Raven Roberts hasn’t been able to shake the rust off AND to top that off, Raven couldn’t beat Veena for the National Elite Championship. Then we have Adam Lucas and Dr. Bethany Blue. I gave Bethany her first singles loss ever and as for Adam Lucas, he hasn’t been the same since losing the Answers Worlds Championship and becoming a cuck to his wife.
Veena Adams: In truth, this is a joke. Now grant it, Raven and Rex, Bethany and Adam are all talented and all Hall of Famers or future ones in their own right much like Charlie is and I will be, but if anyone believes that we are not going to walk out of there as the winners, and then force Kennedy Street’s hand to give us what we deserved. Nothing is going to stop us from that, and We don’t care on what sort of streak or momentum Fira & Ice, or The Royal Elite have, because Ad Infinitum is going to prove why we are the “IT” couple.
(The crowd cheers, though they boo every time Charlie Marr takes the mic. He paces for a second before looking at the entranceway.)
Charlie Marr: So plain and simple, if any of those four are here right now, why don’t you mosey yourselves down here and prove us differently? All we have is time and opportunity, so come on…. Come down here!
(The crowd stands up looking out at the entranceway, waiting for someone, anyone to come out.)
Charlie Marr: Come on mates, we do not have all day.
Veena Adams: Here is the perfect chance to prove us all wrong. We are waiting.
(Ad Infinitum stands there waiting for either team to come out, but no one does.)
Deadprez: It doesn’t look like anyone is going to answer the challenge here, because as Veena and Charlie are calling out both teams, it doesn’t seem like they are here tonight. It doesn’t seem like Fire & Ice or The Royal Elite are on their time.
Eve: And why would they be. These two teams want the advantage, just like Charlie and Veena. They are definitely wanting to bring them out but as you can see, there isn’t anyone coming. This will definitely anger them.
Gavin Kirkland: Here is the thing, Dr. Bethany Blue and Adam Lucas will be sneaky about it, they will show up when it is convenient for them and will strike when they wish. Fire & Ice would have come out by now, but they are probably making snow angels right now in the forest somewhere.
(The crowd starts to boo as Veena just smirks, Charlie Marr shakes his head.)
Charlie Marr: I see how it is, well then we are going to go out there and look for you then. We are not going to wait around; we will take full advantage and walk into your yards and slap you in the mouth.
Veena Adams: You heard him, but that is okay, we don’t blame you, I wouldn’t come out either if I was facing us. Toodles!
(Veena drops the mic as the crowd cheers, “7 Rings” by Ariana Grande plays throughout the arena as both members of Ad Infinitum starts to make their way out of the ring as it cuts to a commercial break.)
(The camera cuts to Gina Romano in the ring.)
Gina Romano: The following contest is scheduled for one fall!
Crowd: ONE FALL!
(Vroom by Hoodie Allen & Connor Price hits!!!)
Gina Romano: Introducing first being accompanied by Silas Mason… NIKKKKKKKKKI KIMURAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!
(Nikki Kimura makes her way out to the ring with Silas Mason behind her as the crowd is booing him heavily.)
Gavin Kirkland: Nikki is such a goddess. I will be watching over her during this match to protect her.
Eve: I don’t think she needs that. Besides she has Silas to do that for her.
Deadprez: I think she can handle herself just fine. But it is not debatable the impact Silas has had on her career…
(PUT EM IN THE FRIDGE – By Peso Pluma (ft. Cardi B) hits!!!)
Gina Romano: And her opponent from Hidalgo, Mexico weighing in at 225 pounds he is “El Padrino” ROBERRRRRRRRRTO DE LA ROOOOOOOOOOOSAAAAAAA!!!
(Roberto De La Rosa makes his way down to the ring to a mixed reaction from the crowd as he confronts Silas Mason briefly at ringside yelling at him to stay out of this.)
Eve: Well Roberto De La Rosa is preparing for the biggest match of his career at Road to Redemption. Could it be his defining moment?
Deadprez: He defeated his entire faction for that opportunity so he had better make sure it is worth it. With how much he brutalized them can you imagine the reaction if he failed? Nah this is all or nothing for him!
Gavin Kirkland: I don’t see why he has to hurt my precious Nikki though to do all that…
Eve: Just shut up Gavin…
(DING! DING! DING!)
Eve: We are underway in this very exciting contest as Nikki Kimura and Roberto De La Rosa lock up in the ring. They are fighting for position early on and it is crucial that they win this lock up. Well it looks like actually neither of them did as they force each other back. It seems they are evenly matched which is not an outcome either of them wanted to experience. They lock up again and they fall backwards into the ropes and begin hitting at each other until eventually Roberto pins Nikki back into the corner. Roberto now with hard elbow strikes to the side of Nikki’s arm eventually battering her down and allowing him to grab her by the arm. Roberto whips Nikki across the ring sending her into the corner. But Nikki bursts out of the corner rushing towards Roberto and takes him down with a Running Clothesline! Roberto quickly gets back up but Nikki takes him down with an Arm Drag throwing him across the ring. Nikki descends on Roberto kicking at him but he ducks into the ropes as Nikki grabs his arm and the referee forces the break. Nikki is forced to back away as Roberto recovers and gets back up in the ring.
Deadprez: Roberto De La Rosa circles around the ring as Nikki Kimura watches him and eventually they lock up in the middle of the ring. They are going at it and the crowd is really hyped for this wrestling match. But Roberto suddenly rakes the eyes of Nikki! Damn what poor sportsmanship. The crowd does not at all approve. But Roberto ignores them as he looks to take full advantage here. Roberto is a former Hardcore Champion and he is looking to win the World Title at Road to Redemption so he is not messing around. Roberto clubs into the back of Nikki knocking her over before connecting with a Suplex dropping her back first in the ring. Roberto slides into the first cover of this match.
Referee: ONNNNNNNNN-
Eve: Not even a one count there. Clearly Roberto De La Rosa has a way to go in order to put Nikki Kimura away. Roberto picks up Nikki and drops her with a Swinging Side Slam. Wait no! Nikki flipped out of it and bounced off the ropes! But Roberto has her scouted and hits a Clothesline dropping her right back down to the mat. Roberto kicks at Nikki before transitioning into a headlock to keep her grounded. But Nikki forces herself up to her feet as she is powering up and preparing to fight back! Nikki lunges at Roberto but he smartly moves out of the way. Roberto comes off the ropes as Nikki turns around and he takes her down with a Spinning Headscissors. Roberto throws Nikki across the ring with his legs as Nikki gets back up and looks frustrated as she goes to lock up with Roberto again. Wait Nikki out of nowhere with a Small Package!
Referee: ONNNNNNNNNN-
Deadprez: Another less than one count. Nikki Kimura tried to steal it there but Roberto De La Rosa saw it coming and was prepared to kick out immediately! Both competitors get back up as Roberto charges in wildly with yet another Clothesline! But Nikki ducks under it and runs off the ropes! Nikki ducks around Roberto as she runs across the ring and tosses him backwards with Tiger Suplex! Roberto gets driven hard into the mat and that was a big move for Nikki and a good chance for her to capitalize here! Nikki grabs Roberto by the arm and yanks it back as he gets back up. Nikki then grabs Roberto around the neck and drops him with a Snapmare takedown into a headlock. Nikki controlling the competition as she grabs the arm and transitions into a Crippler Crossface!
Gavin Kirkland: ROBERTO TAPS OUT! QUEEN NIKKI WINS! DING! DING! DING!
Eve: No no that didn’t happen at all. Please watch the match Gavin and you will see that Roberto actually made it to the ropes and forced the break.
Gavin Kirkland: Huh you are right that is what happened… My bad.
Deadprez: Both competitors are back up as Roberto De La Rosa suddenly catches Nikki Kimura off guard with a Spinning Roundhouse Kick! But his ankle is grabbed by Silas Mason from outside the ring! This distracts Roberto long enough for Nikki to slip up behind him with a Double Knee Strike ramming her face first into the corner. Nikki then grabs Roberto by the hair and rams him repeatedly into the top turnbuckle padding. Nikki then grabs Roberto and tosses him over the top rope to the outside! Nikki is going to the outside as well to continue the damage as the referee begins the count. Roberto is getting back up but Nikki grabs him… but wait! Roberto with a Drop Toe Hold sends Nikki face first into the steal ring steps! Silas Mason is horrified to see what just happened as Nikki might have just been knocked the hell out! Roberto picks Nikki up and drops her with a Brainbuster on the outside! That floor padding protects some… but not from something like that!
Referee: ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE! SIX! SEVEN! EIGHT! NIN-
Eve: Roberto De La Rosa shoves Nikki Kimura back into the ring and beats the count as he goes for the cover!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEE!!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
Deadprez: Only two! The match continues on. Roberto De La Rosa lifts Nikki Kimura up from the mat but Nikki shoves him away desperately. Roberto ignores it and grabs her around the neck and transitions into a Side Headlock. But Nikki with a hard kick to the leg of Roberto as she falls out of it and manages to slip free! Nikki with a Spinning Backfist connects on the side of Roberto’s face catching him off guard as he falls backwards into the ropes! Roberto rushes out but Nikki leaps into the air and hits a Standing Dropkick taking him down! Nikki is holding her head in pain from that Brainbuster outside the ring as she has a breather now but is still slowly recovering. Nikki gets back up to her feet at the same time as Roberto! Roberto throws a fist! But Nikki catches it! Nikki then fires back with shots of her own shoving Roberto backwards into the corner. Nikki then begins goring into the midsection of Roberto with repeated Shoulder Thrusts! Roberto collapses in the corner and Nikki backs up waiting for him to stand before rushing in—
Gavin Kirkland: NIKKI KIMURA WITH A STINGER SPLASH INTO THE CORNER!!!-
Eve: No! Roberto De La Rosa moved out of the way and Nikki Kimura crashed and burned running front first into the corner! Roberto grabs her from behind and connects with a Backstabber! Roberto with the cover to end all covers!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Referee: THHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH–
Deadprez: Nikki kicks out! Nikki shoves Roberto off her before getting back up. Roberto gets into a stance waiting for Nikki to get back up before charging in with a Running Spear! Nikki moves out of the way but Roberto had it scouted and stopped before hitting the corner. Nikki grabs Roberto from behind and locks him into a Sleeper Hold! But Roberto kicks up using his legs in the corner kicking backwards and landing on top of Nikki! Nikki is forced to release the Sleeper Hold to avoid getting pinned and again shoves Roberto off her. Nikki gets back up and Roberto goes in for a Superkick! But Nikki catches the leg and spins him around… Roberto fires back with a Spinning Heel Kick! But Nikki dodges that too! Nikki grabs Roberto from behind and goes for another Tiger Suplex! But Roberto flips out of it! Roberto is countering everything that Nikki throws at him!
Gavin Kirkland: Wait look out! Silas Mason is up on the apron distracting Roberto again! The referee is yelling at him to get down! I should help Nikki too! I got your back Mr. Mason!
Eve: Absolutely not! Roberto gets jumped from behind by Nikki Kimura and every time so far in this match he gets rolling Silas is there to take the advantage out from under him! Nikki picks up Roberto and drops him into the ring with a Suplex! Nikki then goes up to the middle rope and jumps off with a Diving Fist Drop right to Roberto’s face! Nikki got all of it and goes for the cover!!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Referee: THHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH–
Deadprez: Roberto kicks out! Silas Mason is now raging on the outside of the ring as he slaps the apron and hops back up! But the referee screams at him and he is forced to get back down. Silas is pushing it. He’s gonna get Nikki disqualified at this point!!!
(Suddenly there is a loud sound from the crowd as all the attention turns towards the stage.)
Gavin Kirkland: What the…
Deadprez: What the hell is she doing out here???
Eve: Could that be?!?!?
(Daniella Atlas is shown stepping out onto the stage as she walks down to ringside to everyone’s surprise.)
Eve: I have literally no idea what is even going on at this point. Nobody expected Daniella Atlas to be out here for this match.
Deadprez: But she is! And maybe that will keep Silas in check having another pair of eyes on him.
Gavin Kirkland: Or maybe it will just encourage him. I know I am feeling extra encouraged seeing Dashing Dani out here!!! Oh lawd!
Eve: Back in the ring it looks like Nikki Kimura has kept Roberto De La Rosa grounded with a Sleeper Hold… But wait! Roberto managed to slip out of it! Roberto gets back up onto his feet as Nikki grabs his arm looking to try to toss him back down to the mat once more. But Roberto stands back up and manages to turn things around in order to get Nikki back into a headlock. But Nikki’s leg is moved into the ropes by Silas Mason outside the ring and the referee demands the break. But Roberto yanks Nikki out of the ropes! Roberto pulls Nikki out into the middle of the ring but Nikki uses the occasion to break out of the headlock and kicks Roberto hard in the gut. Nikki bounces off the ropes and nails Roberto hard right in the jaw with a Running Knee Lift dropping him down to the mat! Nikki is rolling and it is only a matter of time before she puts him away here!
Deadprez: Roberto De La Rosa rolls out of the ring before Nikki Kimura can pin him! Roberto manages to escape as Nikki throws herself out and goes after him! Roberto shoves Nikki backwards and she falls into Silas Mason! But wait Daniella Atlas now is stepping forward… and Nikki shoves Roberto and they all collide! All four of these people the two in the match and the two very much not in the match have fallen over at ringside! And now suddenly Silas grabs a steel chair from ringside and begins slamming it repeatedly into the back of Nikki! But Nikki with a low blow to Silas and then grabs the chair and hits Roberto with it! Daniella Atlas is up as well and throws Silas towards the other two knocking them over! This thing has completely lost control!
Gavin Kirkland: Ahh Nikki! I’ll save you!
Eve: Get back here!
(Gavin Kirkland is shown running over towards the other two but trips on the way and begins screaming and crying holding his ankle in pain.)
Eve: Well that is what I would expect would happen with one of his “heroic” rescue attempts…
Deadprez: Another chair shot connects on Daniella from Silas Mason from behind! But it has no effect! Daniella grabs the chair as Silas runs away fleeing! The referee has seen enough at this point as he calls for the bell.
(DING! DING! DING!)
Gina Romano: The referee has declared this match a NO CONTEST!!!
Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
Eve: This crowd is clearly not pleased they didn’t get a resolution from this match.
Deadprez: Honestly it was doomed from the start with Silas out here. It only got worse with Daniella and I’m still not sure what she was doing out here to begin with either.
Eve: This match got out of hand and here comes security to drag everyone backstage. We need to restore order out here folks and then we will be back for more great Showdown action!
(The camera cuts to a commercial for Banksgiving featuring CM Banks.)
Gina Ramano: THE FOLLOWING CONTEST IS AN EXTREME ENIGMA PREVIEW TAG MATCH…SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL!
Crowd: ONE FALL!
( ‘ballad of a homeschooled girl’ by Olivia Rodrigo hits to boos from the crowd. As she makes it to the ramp, her music fades out and is replaced with “Tear Away” by Drowning Pool, coming out was Raeangel Guzman looking at Brianna but proceeding to play to the booing crowd as they walk down to the ring! )
Gina Romano: Introducing first, THE TEAM OF BRIANNA HILL AND RAEGUZMAN!
( Upnext, “The Torch” by Stan Bush plays and TJ Alexander makes his way out from the back — making his confidence known to the crowd! Soon after, “PA’ ROMPERLA” by Bad Bunny and Don Omar blast through the arena as Luis came out to join him — completely ignoring him entirely! Going to do his own thing. )
Gina Romano: AND THEIR OPPONENTS! THE TEAM OF TJ ALEXANDER AND LUIS DE LA ROSA!
( DING! DING! DING! )
Gavin Kirkman: Here we go! Brianna looks to be starting this one off along with Luis De La Rosa, AND NOW THE TWO QUICKLY LOCK UP, NOT WASTING MUCH TIME! Brianna is able to take control so far, locking Luis in a headlock! Luis is trying to push Brianna towards the ropes, but Brianna is able to stand his ground and prevent Brianna from overpowering him! LUIS FINDS A SOLUTION TO THIS THOUGH, AS HE LIFTS BRIANNA UP, POSSIBLY LOOKING TO HIT HILL WITH A BACK SUPLEX
Eve: BRIANNA FLIPS OUT OF IT AND LANDS ON HER FEET BEFORE GRABBING LUIS FROM BEHIND AND DELIVERING A GERMAN SUPLEX! Brianna is overpowering Luis right now! Brianna Hill is still holding onto Luis De La Rosa, and now she pulls Luis up, BEFORE LIFTING HIM UP FOR A SECOND GERMAN SUPLEX IN A ROW! Brianna still isn’t finished though! Brianna pulls Luis back up before grabbing the arm, AND NOW HE SPINS LUIS AROUND BEFORE LOOKING FOR A RIPCORD LARIAT-
Deadprez: IT DOESN’T CONNECT! LUIS DE LA ROSA MANAGED TO DUCK UNDER THE LARIAT, AND HE HITS BRIANNA HILL WITH A SUPERKICK THAT CAUSES BRIANNA TO STUMBLE BACKWARDS INTO THE ROPES! BRIANNA BOUNCES OFF OF THE ROPES, AND NOW LUIS GOES FOR A ROLLING FOREARM SMA- NO! BRIANNA COUNTERS BY DELIVERING A BOOT TO THE FACE AND NOW IT’S LUIS DE LA ROSA BACKPEDALING INTO THE ROPES- BUT AS LUIS BOUNCES OFF OF THEM HE JUMPS OVER BRIANNA, PULLING HER DOWN FOR A SUNSET FLIP PIN! LUIS DE LA ROSA MIGHT BE LOOKING TO STEAL THIS ONE! THE REFEREE SLIDING IN!
ONE!
…
TW-
…
Gavin Kirkman: BRIANNA KICKS OUT BEFORE TWO BEFORE QUICKLY GETTING BACK TO HIS FEET, AND NOW BRIANNA GOES FOR-
( TAG! )
Eve: Raeangel Guzman tagging herself in! Right as it seems like Hill was getting her bearings! Brianna exits the ring but needless to say she isn’t too happy about what Raeangel Guzman just did. RAEANGEL IS IN THE RING THOUGH, AND SHE QUICKLY GRABS LUIS DE LA ROSA BEFORE LUIS COULD MAKE A MOVE, AND NOW THERE’S A DRAGON SCREW! RAEANGEL GUZMAN NOW IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING UP WITH A KNEEBAR, AND IT LOOKS LIKE LUIS DE LA ROSA MIGHT BE IN SOME TROUBLE HERE AS HE IS STRUGGLING TO ESCAPE THIS SUBMISSION! Raeangel Guzman made it clear that she never planned to rely on Brianna, but Brianna’s offense in this match so far has allowed Raeangel to take control! Luis De La Rosa is quick to grab onto the ropes before Raeangel Guzman could do much damage, and of course this means that Guzman must let go of the submission! Raeangel lets go before making it backup to her feet, AND NOW RAEANGEL PULLS LUIS BACKUP BEFORE- LUIS SHOVES GUZMAN AWAY BEFORE JUMPING UP AND HITTING RAEANGEL WITH A DROPKICK!! LUIS PUSHES HIMSELF BACK TO HIS FEET AS RAENAGEL MAKES IT BACK UP, AND LUIS SENDS RAEANGEL GUZMAN OVER THE TOP ROPE WITH A CLOTHESLINE!
Gavin Kirkman: RAEANGEL MANAGES TO HANG ONTO THE ROPES THOUGH, ALLOWING HER TO LAND ON THE RING APRON! Luis could tag in TJ Alexander right now, but I think it’s safe to say he wants to try to flex his endurance as TJ Alexander is going to be an opponent of his come Road to Redemption! TJ Alexander now heading towards Raeangel before grabbing her- BUT RAEANGEL GUZMAN IS ABLE TO LAND A HEADBUTT ON LUIS! RAEANGEL GUZMAN NOW HEADING UP TO THE TOP ROPE AS LUIS STUMBLES BACK, AND-
( TAG!
Eve: DIVING KNEE STRIKE BY RAEANGEL GUZMAN TO LUIS DE LA ROSA- NO! RAEANGEL HESITATED AFTER BRIANNA TAGGED HERSELF IN, AND THAT GAVE LUIS DE LA ROSA TIME TO COUNTER AND GRAB RAEANGEL GUZMAN FROM BEHIND BEFORE DELIVERING A RIPCORD SLINGBLADE! Luis De La Rosa now back to his feet- BUT BRIANNA QUICKLY DROPS HIM WITH A RUNNING LARIAT! Luis is in trouble as he is pretty much forcing himself into a handicap, but for what it’s worth, Brianna and Raeangel aren’t working together very well either! Raeangel has made it back to his feet, and now her and Brianna are beginning to argue with one another!
Deadprez: Raeangel Guzman is finally making her way out of the ring as Brianna turns her attention back to the match- AND LUIS DE LA ROSA HITS BRIANNA WITH A RIGHT HAND! BRIANNA WAS CAUGHT OFF GUARD BUT SHE IS ABLE TO THROW- NO! LUIS SWERVES IT BEFORE SWINGING AT BRIANNA AGAIN- BUT BRIANNA CATCHES LUIS’S ARM! NOW BRIANNA PUSHES LUIS AWAY BEFORE GOING FOR A RUNNING KNEE, BUT LUIS IS ABLE TO AVOID IT BEFORE GRABBING BRIANNA FROM BEHIND! BRIANNA LANDS A BACK ELBOW THOUGH, AND HE FOLLOWS THIS UP WITH A SNAPMARE BEFORE LOOKING TO HIT LUIS WITH A ROUNDHOUSE KICK! LUIS DE LA ROSA DUCKED UNDER IT! LUIS NOW QUICKLY GETTING BACK UP, AND-
( TAG! )
Gavin Kirkman: …And now TJ Alexander enters the match! Now it’s Luis and TJ arguing as TJ makes his first appearance in this match, AND BRIANNA LOOKS TO CAPITALIZE AS SHE GOES AFTER THE TWO, BUT TJ ALEXANDER DUCKS, CAUSING BRIANNA TO KNOCK LUIS DE LA ROSA OUT OF THE RING WITH AN ELBOW SMASH! NOW TJ ALEXANDER TRIES TO TAKE ADVANTAGE AS HE LOOKS FOR THE PERFECTION 10- BUT BRIANNA IS ABLE TO PULL TJ’ ARMS AWAY FROM HIM BEFORE TAKING HIM TO THE MAT WITH A HIP TOSS! Brianna now running the ropes, AND SHE LOOKS FOR A KNEE DROP-
Eve: WHICH TJ ALEXANDER IS ABLE TO AVOID AS HE ROLLS OUT OF THE WAY! TJ QUICKLY GETS BACK UP AS BRIANNA PULLS HERSELF UP TO A KNEE- AND TJ ALEXANDER GRABS BRIANNA BY THE HEAD BEFORE PLANTING HER WITH A DDT!! TJ ALEXANDER NOW WITH THE COVER!!
ONE!
…
TWO-
Gavin Kirkman: AND NOW BRIANNA KICKS OUT, KEEPING THIS TAG TEAM MATCH ALIVE!! What a match this has been so far, especially knowing that these are two completely dysfunctional tag teams competing right now! Somehow this has still been great! TJ Alexander makes it back up to his feet, AND HE BEGIN TO STOMP AWAY AT BRIANNA, FORCING BRIANNA TO ROLL TOWARDS THE ROPES AND USE THEM TO TRY AND PULL HERSELF BACK UP! TJ ALEXANDER IS STILL ON THE ATTACK THOUGH AS HE CONTINUES TO HIT BRIANNA WITH SHOOT KICKS, BACKING BRIANNA INTO THE CORNER WHERE TJ IS ABLE TO BEGIN KICKING AWAY AT HER STOMACH! BRIANNA IS IN TROUBLE RIGHT NOW, AS TJ ALEXANDER IS FRESH IN THIS MATCH AND HAS NOT HAD TO WORRY ABOUT GETTING EXHAUSTED THE SAME WAY BRIANNA HAS! SO FAR THIS IS ALL TJ, AND- WAIT! BRIANNA JUST CAUGHT TJ ALEXANDER’S BOOT! BRIANNA JUST CAUGHT HIS BOOT, AND NOW BRIANNA POPS TJ UP INTO A POWERBOMB POSITION! IT LOOKS LIKE BRIANNA HAD SOMETHING IN MIND AFTER ALL, AS SHE MAKES HIS WAY TO THE MIDDLE OF THE RING!
Eve: TJ ALEXANDER QUICKLY BEGINS PUNCHING AWAY THOUGH, DOING EVERYTHING HE CAN TO MAKE SURE BRIANNA ISN’T ABLE TO LAND THE POWERBOMB! BRIANNA IS FORCED TO LET GO OF TJ AS THE PUNCHES BECOME TOO MUCH FOR HER- BUT AS SOON AS BRIANNA LETS TJ GO HE HITS TJ WITH A EUROPEAN UPPERCUT! TJ STUMBLES BACK, BUT HE’S ABLE TO RETALIATE WITH A RIGHT HAND BEFORE TURNING AND HITTING A SPINNING BACKFIST! TJ NOW KICKING BRIANNA’ LEG OUT FROM UNDER HER BEFORE PULLING BRIANNA INTO A FRONT FACELOCK, AND NOW TJ PULLS BRIANNA UP FOR A SUPLE- Brianna managing to land on her feet! Looking to capitalize!
( TAG! )
Deadprez: At this point Brianna doesn’t even say anything and just makes her way out of the ring, but Raeangel Guzman doesn’t have much of an advantage as TJ was able to turn and see the tag happen! Raeangel Guzman enters the ring, AND NOW IT’S TJ AND RAEANGEL LOCKING UP WITH EACH OTHER, ONLY RAEANGEL IS QUICK TO LOCK IN A HAMMERLOCK! TJ USES A FREE ARM TO ATTEMPT A BACK ELBOW BUT RAEANGEL DUCKS UNDER IT! TJ NOW ATTEMPTING A ROUNDHOUSE KICK, BUT TJ DUCKS UNDER THAT BEFORE TAKING RAEANGEL TO THE MAT WITH A DOUBLE LEG TAKEDOWN!
Gavin Kirkman: TJ ALEXANDER LOOKING TO STRIKE WHILE HE’S ON TOP OF RAEANGEL, BUT GUZMAN PULLS HER LEGS UP BEFORE WRAPPING THEM AROUND TJ’ ARM, PULLING TJ INTO AN ARMBAR! RAEANGEL GUZMAN HAS TJ ALEXANDER IN AN ARMBAR RIGHT NOW, AND TJ ALEXANDER DESPERATELY NEEDS TO GET OUT OF THIS SUBMISSION FAST, BECAUSE EVEN IF HE DOESN’T TAP OUT THAT ARM COULD BECOME A VERY BIG WEAKNESS LATER ON THE LONGER HE’S TRAPPED IN THIS ARMBAR!
Eve: That’s the thing! TJ Alexander is in trouble no matter what and Raeangel Guzman knows that, which is what makes that counter into the armbar that much more impressive! TJ Alexander is already fighting his way out of this though as he slowly pulls himself up, BUT THIS JUST CAUSES RAEANGEL GUZMAN TO TRY AND TRANSITION INTO A TRIANGLE CH- NO! TJ ALEXANDER WITH A HUGE RIGHT HAND, FORCING RAEANGEL GUZMAN TO LET GO OF HIM! RAEANGEL GUZMAN MAKES IT BACK TO A KNEE- BUT TJ ALEXANDER CATCHES HER WITH A ROUNDHOUSE KICK! TJ ALEXANDER GRABS GUZMAN LIFTING HER UP, AND HE HITS HER WITH THE PERFECTION 10! TJ GOES FOR THE COVER, IS TJ ALEXANDER ABOUT TO PIN RAEANGEL GUZMAN?
ONE!
…
TWO!!
…
THREE!!!
Gavin Kirkman: NO, RAEANGEL GUZMAN MANAGES TO GET THE SHOULDER UP, AND LOOK AT BRIANNA! Brianna had only one foot in the ring, and I think she had debated whether or not he should make an attempt to break up the pin! Had Raeangel not had enough to kick out though, that hesitation would’ve cost them the match! TJ Alexander slowly makes his way back to his feet, and at this point I just have to say that it’s very impressive how this match has been playing out
Eve: TJ Alexander is pulling Raeangel Guzman back to his feet, AND NOW TJ IS PULLING HER INTO A FRONT FACELOCK, BUT RAEANGEL PUNCHES TJ IN THE SIDE! TJ LETS GO AND DELIVERS A KNEE TO THE MIDSECTION CAUSING RAEANGEL TO STUMBLE INTO THE CORNER, AND NOW TJ ALEXANDER RUNS IN- BUT RAEANGEL MANAGES TO GET A BOOT UP, AND IT CONNECTS!
Deadprez: RAEANGEL DRAGS HERSELF UP ONTO THE MIDDLE ROPE AS TJ ALEXANDER STUMBLES BACK, AND NOW RAEANGEL CONNECTS WITH A DIVING KNEE, DROPPING TJ ALEXANDER ONTO THE MAT! RAEANGEL GUZMAN USES THE ROPES TO PULL HERSELF UP, AND NOW SHE HEADS OVER TO TJ BEFORE GRABBING HIS ARMS, AND STOMPING AWAY AT HIS FACE! THIS IS JUST STRAIGHT BRUTALITY! GUZMAN SHOWING THAT SHE CAN GET AGGRESSIVE WHEN SHE WANTS TOO! RAEANGEL FINALLY STOPS STOMPING ON TJ, BUT SHE HOLDS ONTO THE ARMS STILL!
Gavin Kirkman: Raeangel Guzman now pulling TJ Alexander up to his knees, AND RAEANGEL DELIVERS A KNEE STRIKE! RAEANGEL GUZMAN WITH A BRUTAL DISPLAY RIGHT NOW AS SHE LIFTS TJ ALEXANDER UP, AND NOW DELIVERS A DRAGON SUPLEX! RAEANGEL GUZMAN NOW PULLING TJ ALEXANDER UP ONCE AGAIN, AND I THINK HE’S LOOKING FOR ANOTHER- BUT TJ MANAGES TO FREE AN ARM BEFORE ELBOWING RAEANGEL IN THE STOMACH!! TJ ALEXANDER NOW TURNING AND KICKING RAEANGEL IN THE MIDSECTION, AND TJ LOOKS FOR A DDT- BUT RAEANGEL PUSHES TJ AWAY! TJ ALEXANDER RUNS BACK IN- BUT RAEANGEL DROPS HIM WITH A DROP TOE HOLD BEFORE TRYING TO LOCK IN A CROSSFACE! RAEANGEL IS TRYING TO LOCK IT IN, BUT TJ ALEXANDER IS PULLING HIMSELF AWAY BEFORE RAEANGEL COULD ACTUALLY APPLY THE SUBMISSION! TJ ALEXANDER FINALLY GRABS ONTO THE ROPES, ALL BEFORE RAEANGEL COULD EVEN APPLY THE SUBMISSION!
Eve: YEAH, BUT RAEANGEL PULLS TJ AWAY FROM THE ROPES BEFORE LOOKING FOR A BOOT TO THE SIDE OF THE HEAD- OH! TJ ALEXANDER AVOIDS THE BOOT, AND NOW-
( TAG! )
Gavin Kirkman: LUIS DE LA ROSA TAGS HIMSELF IN! Luis gets in the ring, and TJ is arguing with him! TJ and Luis going back and forth- AND TJ ALEXANDER SHOVES LUIS BEFORE EXITING THE RING! Things are heated between these two, but look at what’s going on the other side of the ring! Brianna is holding her hand out. Raeangel does TAG Brianna in, and Brianna stares a hole in Raeangel Guzman as Raeangel leaves the ring, and Brianna enters!
Eve: Both Brianna and Luis De La Rosa are in the ring, AND NOW THE TWO CHARGE AT ONE ANOTHER! BRIANNA WENT FOR A LARIAT BUT LUIS DE LA ROSA DUCKED UNDER IT BEFORE RUNNING THE ROPES! LUIS DE LA ROSA LOOKS FOR A BICYCLE KICK- BUT BRIANNA AVOIDS IT BEFORE GRABBING LUIS FROM BEHIND AND LOOKING FOR A GERMAN SUPLEX- WHICH LUIS IS ABLE TO FLIP OUT OF AND LAND ON HIS FEET! Brianna now quickly gets back to his feet, AND NOW LUIS DE LA ROSA LOOKS FOR THE SUPERKICK! BRIANNA PUSHES LUIS DE LA ROSA INTO THE ROPES BEFORE IMMEDIATELY CHARGING IN- AND BRIANNA HITS LUIS WITH A BOOT TO THE FACE BEFORE LUIS COULD EVEN BOUNCE OFF OF THE ROPES! BRIANNA NOW LIFTING LUIS UP BEFORE TURNING TO THE MIDDLE OF THE RING, AND BRIANNA PLANTS LUIS DE LA ROSA WITH A SIT OUT POWERBOMB! BRIANNA NOW WITH THE COVER TO POSSIBLY BRING THIS MATCH TO AN END!
ONE!
…
TWO!!
…
THREEE—
…
Deadprez: AND LUIS DE LA ROSA KICKS OUT, LUIS DE LA ROSA KEEPS THIS MATCH ALIVE! Brianna is right back up, AND NOW HE PULLS LUIS TO THE ROPES BEFORE WRAPPING HIS ARMS IN THEM!! LUIS DE LA ROSA IS TRAPPED IN THE ROPES, AND NOW BRIANNA BEGINS RUNNING THE ROPES BEFORE HITTING LUIS WITH A JUMPING KNEE STRIKE! Luis De La Lisa looks out of it, but Brianna doesn’t look like she is finished just yet! BRIANNA BEGINS TO RUN THE ROPES FOR A SECOND TIME- ONLY THIS TIME LUIS IS ABLE TO GET A BOOT UP, HITTING BRIANNA RIGHT IN THE FACE AND STOPPING HER FROM CONNECTING WITH ANYMORE KNEE STRIKES!
Gavin Kirkman: Brianna stumbled back as Luis began to free himself! Luis saw the opportunity! Going for ONE SUPERKICK! Turning Brianna around and a SECOND ONE to the back of the head! Luis has Brianna and this match exactly where he wants it! Going to the top rope! He is looking for that Destripada to finish this match off- WAIT! TJ LOOKING FOR THAT TAG BUT LUIS DROPPING OF THE ROPES BEFORE HE COULD TAG HIMSELF IN YET AGAIN!
Luis De La Rosa ( off mic ): What ‘s up man? You want my spotlight? You want to make a name for yourself? What is up with you?!
TJ Alexander ( off mic ): I just want to make sure this match gets finished and doesn’t seem like you’re getting the job done!
Luis De La Rosa ( off mic ): Doing a better job than you!
Eve: While they are bickering! Brianna dropkicks Luis into TJ Alexander! Sending him down to the outside! It doesn’t seem like they are finished capitalizing! Raeangel Guzman leaping off the apron with the ESTÁ FUERA! KNOCKING ALEXANDER OUT! BRIANNA ALSO TAKING ADVANTAGE, PICKING LUIS UP AND SLAMMING HIM DOWN WITH THE “CRUSH CULTURE”! GOING FOR THE PIN!
ONE!
…
TWO!!
…
THREEEE!!!
…
( DING! DING! DING! )
Gina Romano: HERE IS YOUR WINNER…BRIANNA HILL AND RAEANGEL GUZMAN!
Gavin Kirkman: Brianna and Raeangel are able to overcome their differences and pick up the win! While Luis and TJ came close, it seems like they just weren’t clicking as much as they needed too! Hopefully, they have better luck in the Battle Royal!
( Brianna and Raeangel stand in the ring together, both of them looking happy that they managed to get the victory. )
Raeangel Guzman ( off mic ): Not bad, not bad, but don’t expect any of this in the Battle Royale.
Brianna Hill ( off mic): Trust me, I won’t.
( BRIANNA FLIPS RAEANGEL AROUND AND QUICKLY HITS THE CRUSH CULTURE! STANDING ABOVE BOTH LUIS AND RAEANGEL! )
Eve: A message was surely sent by Brianna! No teams, one opportunity! Only one of these people will be the Winner of the Extreme Enigma Battle Royal and everyone wants to be that one person!
( The scene fades on Brianna with her arm raised, continuing to celebrate her victory by herself!)
(The camera cuts back to the locker room where we see Bronson Daniels sitting on the floor, stretching and getting himself ready for his match later on tonight. We hear a faint sound of crowd cheers in the background as we hear footsteps getting louder as Bronson looks up and the person speaks up.)
???: I had a feeling that I would find you here. It looks like you are getting yourself prepared for later tonight.
(The camera moves from the floor where Bronson is sitting and pans up to the person that Bronson is looking at and it is partner in Elysium, Jon Kelton. Once again, we hear the cheers from the crowd in the background as Kelton sits down on one of the locker room seats next to Bronson.)
Bronson Daniels: Absolutely. You can’t be too prepared for a match like this. Are you ready for tonight?
Jon Kelton: I am more than ready to face those three in the ring. Nothing better to finish Thanksgiving week than being in the Showdown Main Event. How about you? Are you ready for tonight?
Bronson Daniels: I feel the same way. More than ready. The only thing better than being in the main event is I have been waiting for another chance to get in the ring with the Tag Team Champions ever since The Last Stand.
Jon Kelton: Don’t you find it just the least bit annoying to hear Sienna and Kassidy singing their own praises every week?
Bronson Daniels: It can get on my nerves, that’s for sure. I get that they are both Hall of Famers and former World Champions and all of that. But it doesn’t mean we wanna hear them brag over and over again.
Jon Kelton: Yeah. Just because of the damn stronghold they’ve held on the Tag Team Titles and all their past successes that they have the right to talk down to the rest of us and do whatever they can to make the rest of us feel like crap.
Bronson Daniels: Yeah, they think they are the best team in EAW, but that’s because they haven’t really faced us two on two. Sure there was The Last Stand, but it was under a little bit of a different set of circumstances.
Jon Kelton: They have The British Invasion next, but we will easily be right on their heels if given the chance. Let them say they’re the best after facing us with those Tag Team Titles on the line.
Bronson Daniels: That will come soon enough, but we will make sure to make them eat some of their words later on tonight when we team with Milli. We already have chemistry between the three of us, so I strongly believe that we have the advantage.
Jon Kelton: Absolutely. Especially with three huge egos and attitudes on the opposing team. Sure, Sienna and Kassidy have chemistry, but will the chemistry pull through with somebody like Harper Lee on their team?
(Bronson and Kelton look at each other before they both roll their eyes and shake their heads at the thought of Harper Lee’s well known bad attitude as they continue speaking.)
Bronson Daniels: Harper Lee. She is certainly outspoken… or someone with a very big mouth. Am I the only person who thinks that she’s not playing with a full deck with how she thinks?
Jon Kelton: Oh you mean how she thinks she’s the star of the show and how everything should be all about her and everything. Yeah she’s off her rocker.
Bronson Daniels: If she thinks that tonight is going to be anything different for her or this is her chance to get back into the spotlight, then she is crazy and she has another thing coming if she thinks that she’s going to win.
Jon Kelton: There’s no doubt that me, you, and Milli will have everything figured out by the time the bell rings. Those three aren’t going to have a clue what will hit them.
Bronson Daniels: They will have a clue after the match starts and the clue is going to come in the form of the Universal Women’s Champion Milli Banks along with the fastest rising team in EAW today and eventual EAW Unified Tag Team Champions. Bronson Daniels. Jon Kelton. Elysium.
Jon Kelton: That sounds perfect, but there is one more match we need to keep our focus on at Road to Redemption. You know what I am talking about.
Bronson Daniels: I know exactly what you are talking about. The Extreme Elimination Chamber. What a hellacious match and a hellacious fight the Chamber is going to be in a few weeks.
Jon Kelton: A match like that almost guarantees that you are going to bleed, suffer some sort of injury, or both.
Bronson Daniels: The Chamber isn’t just about the extreme environment it promises and guarantees, there’s also the prize that’s on the line in the Chamber.
Jon Kelton: The Answers World Championship.
Bronson Daniels: The Answers World Championship.
Jon Kelton: You know what that means, right?
Bronson Daniels: Yeah… I know exactly what that means.
(Both members of Elysium go silent for a moment and there is now an aura in the locker room that could only be described as depressing because of what both realize what the Answers World Championship match at Road to Redemption truly means.)
Bronson Daniels: We’re tag partners, but at Road to Redemption, we will be opponents in the Chamber.
Jon Kelton: We will be opponents. It kinds of sucks of the situation we find ourselves in, doesn’t it?
Bronson Daniels: It does kind of suck considering the relationship and chemistry we have been building as a team the last few months and now we have to put that aside for our own individual goals.
Jon Kelton: I am not going to deny the fact that this match was an amazing opportunity that was offered to the two of us. The chance to become Answers World Champion. Who wouldn’t jump at the chance of winning that title?
Bronson Daniels: Nobody is that stupid to say no to being given a chance at one of the top titles in all of EAW. Even if it means having to face off against your partner.
Jon Kelton: I think we are both professional enough to know that when Road to Redemption comes around, we need to keep all of our focus on that title and not hold back regardless of who our opposition is.
Bronson Daniels: I can almost guarantee that we will be facing off against each other in the Chamber, but as you said, we are both professional enough to realize that what happens is all part of the business and the match we find ourselves in.
Jon Kelton: We just need to remember that Road to Redemption is all about winning the Answers World Championship and bringing some gold back to Elysium.
Bronson Daniels: At the end of the day, hopefully one of Elysium leaves as Champion. Whether it be my next run as Champion or your first taste of World Championship gold.
Jon Kelton: Regardless of how the match result goes, I promise to have your back in the match.
Bronson Daniels: And I promise to have your back in the match as well.
(After Bronson finishes, Kelton extends his hand out for a handshake.)
Jon Kelton: What do you say? Brothers in arms?
(Bronson looks at Kelton and the extended hand for a second before he quickly returns the favor and shakes the hand of his tag team partner.)
Bronson Daniels: Exactly. Brothers in arms.
(As Elysium are shaking hands, we see that their tag team partner for tonight, the Universal Women’s Champion Milli Banks, has entered the locker room and she has a pleased look on her face and her Universal Women’s Championship as she sees that her teammates are on the same page and showing strong solidarity.)
Milli Banks: Now this is what I like to see and hear. Two teammates not letting a little bit of competition get in between them and not cause any dissension. You two certainly have your priorities straight. I wish you both good luck at Road to Redemption.
Jon Kelton: We wish you good luck in your title defense at Road to Redemption, but tonight is not about our respective World Championship matches inside the Extreme Elimination Chamber.
Bronson Daniels: He’s right. Tonight is about business. Tonight is about beating the hell out of and defeating The Jaded Hearts and Harper Lee and showing how serious and how big of threats we truly are.
Milli Banks: We’ve always been threats. This is just to help remind them to not take us lightly and I couldn’t think of a better way to do that than bringing The Jaded Hearts and Harp-HO Lee off their pedestals and deflating their egos.
(The final shot shows Elysium and Milli Banks shaking hands with confident smiles on their faces as they leave the locker room to prepare for their match later tonight before the camera shot fades elsewhere.)
(The camera returns to the arena where there is a brief moment of silence before the sounds of “I Rise” by Cory Marks starts to play and seconds later the crowd goes absolutely crazy with cheers for the appearance of Donovan Duke. He has a smile on his face as he holds his Cash in the Vault briefcase high in the air before heading to the ring.
Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome at this time… “MR. CASH IN THE VAULT” DONOVAN DUKE!
Deadprez: Well this is certainly a surprise we have here. Looks like we are going to be graced with the presence of Donovan Duke before our next match. No doubt he is very interested in this upcoming match.
Gavin Kirkland: Why can’t he mind his own business? This match really doesn’t concern him and he’s got a damn screw loose if you ask me.
Eve: Well considering that there has been a rivalry building up between Donovan and one of the participants in this match, you could almost expect Donovan was gonna to be watching very closely! Lucky for you, he’s coming over to the commentary table.
Gavin Kirkland: Oh shit.
(After Donovan is finished slapping hands with the fans at ringside, he makes his way over to the commentary table. He shakes hands with Deadprez and Eve before taking a seat next to Eve and starts putting a headset on.)
Deadprez: Not only will Mr. Cash in the Vault be at ringside, he’ll be joining us for commentary for this match. Donovan, thank you for joining us tonight.
Donovan Duke: Thanks, Prezzy. It’s a pleasure to be here. Hi, Gavin. How are ya
Gavin Kirkland: Umm…. I’m doing good.
Donovan Duke: No need to be nervous. I don’t hold what you said against you. I know you think with your head instead of your head. Water under the bridge.
Eve: You’re a bigger person than many others around here. They would have knocked the shit out of him. Anyways, we’re glad you are here and we would love to get your input on this next match. With that being said, let’s send it to the ring to Gina Romano.
(The camera cuts to Gina Romano standing in the ring with a microphone as she is ready to begin the introductions for the next match.)
Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen, this next contest is scheduled for ONE FALL!
Crowd: ONE FALL!
(“It Ain’t Safe” by Skepta starts to play as the crowd gives a mostly negative reaction to the arrival of Charlie Marr. Following closely behind Charlie is the lovely Veena Adams. Both of them have serious looks on their face as they head to the ring.)
Gina Romano: Introducing first and making his way to the ring. Accompanied to the ring by Veena Adams. From Tower Hamlets, London, United Kingdom! Weighing 240 pounds. Here is “COLOSSUS” CHARLIE MARR!!
Deadprez: Here comes the dynamic duo of Veena and Charlie, who will be representing Showdown in the special Triple Threat Interbrand Tag Team Match at Road to Redemption. Of course we all saw what’s on their mind regarding that match earlier tonight.
Gavin Kirkland: Tonight we get Charlie Marr in singles action and I am so happy that Veena is accompanying him to ringside. What a beautiful woman
Donovan Duke: These two have been a pain in my ass in the past. Even if I don’t see eye to eye with either one of them, they have both worked their asses off. Charlie to make his Hall of Fame status and Veena to become a formidable contender.
Eve: Last week, Charlie and Ruler went to a double disqualification while Veena defeated Miku in the Lumberjack and Jill match. Will Ad Infinitum have a victory two weeks in a row in some form? They certainly could, but it’s going to be a tough task ahead.
(Charlie enters the ring while Veena takes her place at ringside as Charlie’s music fades off. Seconds later, ‘Kostas’ by Westside Gunn, Conway the Machine & Benny the Butcher starts playing as Cody Maverick enters the arena. The crowd is giving him a mixed, but negative reaction as he doesn’t look to be in a good mood as he heads to the ring.)
Gina Romano: Introducing his opponent! From Las Vegas, Nevada. Weighing 235 pounds. Here is “THE SIN CITY SUPERSTAR” CODY MAVERICK!
Gavin Kirkland: Here comes the man you screwed over a few weeks ago. This should be the man facing SOSA at Road to Redemption. Instead, he’s facing you.
Eve: You really need to stop being a jackass, Gavin. Last week, Donovan, you and Cody were on opposite sides in tag team action and that all ended in a fight that had to be broken up by security. Is there any hatred towards Cody for what he said.
Donovan Duke: Absolutely not. I don’t hate Cody. He is just finding an outlet to get his frustration out. Somehow he tried to lay all of this on my doorstep and I am not just going to sit back and let him keep blaming shit on me. All I have done is defend myself and fight back and that is what I am going to keep doing and I am going to prove that I am the Iron Man at Road to Redemption.
Deadprez: The Iron Man match between you and Cody has all the elements of stealing the show at Road to Redemption. Tonight, Cody has to make it past Charlie. Both men are looking for victory, but who will get it? We are about to find out!
(Cody slides into and heads right towards Charlie as the referee separates the two and forces them back to neutral corners. Cody’s music has faded off as the referee checks both competitors before calling for the bell.)
(DING! DING! DING!)
Eve: Bell has rung and this match is underway. Both these competitors have a history with each other in the past and they don’t exactly get along with each other. Who do you think has the advantage in the match, Donovan?
Donovan Duke: Hard to tell right at the beginning of the match because this match could go either way considering Charlie has established himself as a competitor and Cody is still on the rise.
Deadprez: Couldn’t have said it better myself as Cody goes to lock up BUT CHARLIES CATCHES CODY IN THE FACE WITH A RIGHT HAND! That caught Cody by surprise as he staggered back.
Gavin Kirkland: Charlie has control early on as he continues throwing those right hands that back Cody back to the ropes before Charlie whips him to the other side.
Deadprez: Cody comes back and CHARLIE TAKES HIM UP AND OVER WITH A BACK BODY DROP, BUT CODY IS ABLE TO LAND ON HIS FEET! Cody grabs his waist before Charlie can turn around AND CODY COUNTERS WITH A GERMAN SUPLEX!
Donovan Duke: With moves like that at his disposal, I really don’t see why he has such a big chip on his shoulder. He just needs to do what he does best and get out of his own head to find the success he wants instead of throwing the blame on someone like me. It still baffles me.
Eve: Charlie goes head over heels off the suplex as he gets back to his feet BEFORE CODY COMES BACK AND CLOBBERS CHARLIE WITH A CLOTHESLINE TAKING CHARLIE BACK DOWN TO THE MAT!
Gavin Kirkland: Cody stays on the attack by bringing him back to his feet and shoves Charlie back into the corner before HITTING HIM ACROSS THE CHEST WITH A KNIFE EDGE CHOP! OH THAT HURT! VEENA HELP HIM!
Eve: Cody keeps on the chops in the corner AND TURNS IT INTO THE MACHINE GUN CHOPS! GOOD GRIEF! CHARLIE’S CHEST LOOKS LIKE IT’S STARTING TO BLEED!
Donovan Duke: Those chops hurt like a bitch, believe me. I felt those a few weeks ago in the triple threat match that the welts and bruises took a few days to go away.
Deadprez: There is a little blood trickling down Charlie’s chest as Cody grabs him by the arm AND FIRES A PUNCH THAT SENDS CHARLIE FALLING BACK INTO THE CORNER! Charlie is certainly on the rails right now.
Gavin Kirkland: Now Cody has climbed onto the second rope AND CODY STARTS THROWING PUNCHES IN THE CORNER AND THE CROWD IS NOW COUNTING ALONGSIDE THE PUNCHES
Crowd: (off-mic) ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE! SIX! SEVEN! EIG–
Eve: WAIT A SECOND! CODY TOOK A QUICK SECOND TO LOOK OVER AT DONOVAN AND THAT GAVE CHARLIE ENOUGH OF AN OPENING TO GRAB CODY’S LEGS AND WALKS HIM OVER TO THE ROPES AND DELIVERS A HANGMAN ON THE TOP ROPE!
Donovan Duke: He doesn’t need to be looking at me when he’s facing Charlie. Mistakes like that aren’t going to be taken lightly against much more experienced opponents and Charlie is going to make him pay for that mistake.
Deadprez: Very astute observation by Mr. Cash in the Vault as Cody is dangling on the top rope before Charlie grabs Cody’s legs AND THROWS HIM RIGHT OVER THE TOP ROPE–
Gavin Kirkland: CODY CAUGHT HIS BACK ON THE EDGE OF THE APRON BEFORE HE CRASHES ONTO THE RINGSIDE FLOOR! That was an ugly landing for The Sin City Superstar
Deadprez: Cody is down on the floor as Charlie rolls out of the ring and grabs Cody before hoisting Cody onto his shoulders AND DELIVERING A FRONT POWERSLAM ON THE FLOOR!
Eve: Cody hits the floor hard and Veena is cheering Charlie on from another side of the ring as Charlie brings Cody back to his feet and WHIPS HIM TOWARDS THE RING–
Gavin Kirkland: AND CODY GOES FACE FIRST INTO THE RINGPOST! DID YOU HEAR THAT THUD FROM CODY’S HEAD?
Donovan Duke: That was certainly a painful shot to say the least. I would hope that it would knock some sense into him, but I don’t think that I will be that lucky.
Eve: Donnie, would you say your match with Cody is about showing him respect.
Donovan Duke: The match is going to show that I am not going to let him throw me under the best because of his own issues and frustrations. I can take a lot of crap from people, but when you start pulling stuff like Cody did, I am going to fight back and I am going to fight back with all the power that I have. I don’t hate Cody. Not in the slightest.
Deadprez: Meanwhile, Cody was rolled back into the ring by Charlie. Cody was trying to get back to his feet as Charlie hits the ropes AND CATCHES CODY IN THE FACE WITH A RUNNING KNEE LIFT!
Gavin Kirkland: Cody goes down hard as Veena is cheering for her Charlie as Charlie Marr rolls Cody over and hooks the leg for the cover!
ONNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWOOOOOO–
Eve: CODY POWERS OUT AT TWO! Near fall for Charlie Marr as Charlie mounts Cody AND STARTS THROWING RIGHT HANDS AGAINST CODY’S SKULL! Cody is trying to block as many shots as he can as the referee starts a count on Charlie.
Deadprez: Charlie stops the punches on four as Charlie grabs Cody by the hair and brings him back to his feet and whips him to the ropes. Cody comes back off the ropes AND CHARLIE GOES FOR A BIG BOOT–
Gavin Kirkland: CODY DUCKS OUT OF THE WAY! Cody hits the ropes on the other side AND LEAVES HIS FEET AND TAKING CHARLIE DOWN WITH A SHOULDER TACKLE!
Donovan Duke: Not a bad counter. I can give credit where credit is due. Cody has some skills in the ring.
Deadprez: Do you think that they will match up with your in ring skills?
Donovan Duke: That remains to be seen. There’s a reason why I am one of the most technically gifted wrestlers in all of EAW. He’ll be a challenge. That’s for sure.
Eve: Charlie gets back to his feet AS CODY THROWS A JAB. Cody follows up with another jab and another jab BEFORE COMING BACK WITH A DISCUS LARIAT ACROSS THE THROAT TAKING CHARLIE DOWN TO THE MAT!
Gavin Kirkland: Cody is building up some momentum right her as he puts the boots to the Hall of Famer before grabbing him and applying the facelock before lifting him up AND BOUNCING HIM OFF THE ROPES BEFORE TAKING HIM UP AND OVER WITH THE SLINGSHOT SUPLEX!
Eve: Cody still has hold of Charlie as he changes grip and LIFTS HIM UP AND DROPS HIM WITH THE INVERTED ATOMIC DROP! NOT A GOOD LANDING FOR CHARLIE–
Deadprez: Cody spins Charlie around and lifts him up again BEFORE HITTING HIM WITH A REGULAR ATOMIC DROP! CHARLIE FEELING A LITTLE PAIN DOWN BELOW!
Donovan Duke: Charlie is just an all around pain, but that is a completely different story.
Gavin Kirkland: Veena doesn’t like that at all. There goes fun for tonight as Veena is yelling at Cody as Charlie turns around towards Cody AND CODY LEAVES HIS FEET TO HIT THE LEAPING NECKBREAKER!
Eve: Charlie being rocked right now as he tries to make it back to his feet but Cody grabs Charlie by the head AND DROPS HIM DOWN WITH THE DDT! CHARLIE WAS SPIKED ON HIS HEAD!
Deadprez: Charlie is down off the DDT as Charlie gets rolled over and Cody hooks the leg for the cover!
ONNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWOOOOOO!
THHHHHHH–
Gavin Kirkland: CHARLIE KICKS OUT AT TWO! That means that Veena gets to stay at ringside as the match continues. WOOHOOO! I am so happy.
Donovan Duke: So it is true that you are very biased or very lovelorn when it comes to your commentary, huh? Either way, I am glad I am out here watching this match.
Deadprez: We’re glad you are out here as well. Now Cody grabs Charlie and brings him back to his feet and whips him to the ropes. Charlie with the rebound and Cody grabs him BUT CHARLIE LOOKS LIKE HE IS TRYING TO COUNTER–
Eve: BUT CODY IS ABLE TO HOLD ON AND CODY DROPS DOWN AND PLANTS CHARLIE WITH THE SIDEWALK SLAM! Charlie is really having trouble getting back into the match after Cody started building some momentum.
Gavin Kirkland: If Charlie doesn’t, then the match will be over and poor Veena will have to leave. Anyways, Cody is deciding to change things up as he gets onto the second rope and he waits for Charlie to get back to his feet.
Donovan Duke: Cody is changing up his arsenal a little bit as he goes onto the ropes. Certainly living up to the Las Vegas gambling mentality. Hopefully it doesn’t crap out for him. But he really shouldn’t give Charlie too much time to recover.
Eve: That very well could be the case as Charlie is back on his feet. Charlie turns around AND CODY JUMPS OFF THE SECOND ROPE FOR THE MISSILE DROPKICK–
Deadprez: CHARLIE GETS OUT OF THE WAY AT THE LAST SECOND AND CODY CRASHES AND BURNS ON THE MAT! The gamble did not pay off for Cody.
Gavin Kirkland: Charlie grabs Cody up and pulls him back to his feet and whips him to the ropes. Cody rebounds off the ropes and Charlie picks him AND DRIVES HIM DOWN TO THE MAT WITH “THE HEADMASTER RITUAL”!
Eve: What a spinebuster by Charlie Marr and that snapped Cody’s head and neck back on impact. Cody is down at the moment and Charlie doesn’t waste a moment as Charlie hooks the leg for the cover!
ONNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWOOOOOO!
THHHHHHRRRRRRREEEEEE!
Deadprez: CODY KICKED OUT AT TWO! That was a very close near fall by Charlie Marr. Even Veena thought the match was over and she started pounding the edge of the ring in frustration.
Donovan Duke: Charlie has a very dangerous spinebuster. Could be one of the best in the game.
Gavin Kirkland: Charlie doesn’t look too amused at the moment as he grabs hold of Cody’s neck and has it locked up BEFORE CHARLIE JUMPS UP IN THE AIR FOR A JUMPING DDT-
Deadprez: CODY IS ABLE TO CHANGE MOMENTUM AND HE REVERSES THE DDT INTO A NORTHERN LIGHTS SUPLEX! Charlie hits the mat hard as Cody has now changed control back to him.
Eve: Now it’s Cody’s turn to bring Charlie back to his feet and whips him to the ropes. Charlie rebounds off the ropes and heads towards Cody and lifts him up AND CODY DRIVES HIM DOWN WITH THE “DEEP END”!
Donovan Duke: Cody hit is spinebuster and that doesn’t exactly feel good either. Turnabout is fair play. Maybe Cody is trying to rub salt in the wound by using a Spinebuster as well.
Gavin Kirkland: What a spinebuster that was by Cody and Veena is yelling for Charlie as Cody goes to hook the leg for the cover!
ONNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWOOOOOO!
THHHHHHRRRRRRREEEEEE!
Eve: CHARLIE POWERS OUT AT TWO! ANOTHER NEAR FALL FOR CODY MAVERICK! Cody is not in a good mood as he starts pounding lefts and rights into Charlie’s skull.
Donovan Duke: Close match going on, but I don’t know how punching Charlie’s lights out is going to help him win, especially with the referee counting him down. Then again, sometimes you do what you have to do in order to win.
Deadprez: The referee has reached a count of four and Cody stops the punches and gets back to his feet. Now he grabs Charlie AND LIFTS HIM UP IN THE AIR FOR THE “HIGH ROLLER”!
Gavin Kirkland: CODY IS GOING FOR THAT MODIFIED OLYMPIC SLAM, BUT CHARLIE STARTED THROWING ELBOWS INTO THE SIDE OF CODY’S HEAD AND CODY LET CHARLIE GO!
Eve: Charlie slid off Cody’s shoulders and down his back! Charlie is trying to take Cody down with a sunset flip! Cody is trying to keep his balance, BUT IT WASN’T ENOUGH! CODY FALLS BACK AND CHARLIE STACK HIM UP FOR A COVER! SHOULDERS ARE DOWN!
ONNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWOOOOOO!
Gavin Kirklkand: BAHAHAHHAHA! CHARLIE IS GRABBING THE ROPES WITH ONE HAND AND HAS A HANDFUL OF TIGHTS WITH THE OTHER! THE VETERAN INSTINCT OF CHARLIE ON DISPLAY AND VEENA APPROVES!
THHHHHHRRRRRRREEEEEE!
Deadprez: THE REFEREE CAUGHT CHARLIE! The referee saw that Charlie had a handful of tights and they stopped the count and now they are yelling at Charlie to let go of Cody’s trunks.
Donovan Duke: That was a case of bad luck, wasn’t it? Charlie tried to take a shortcut and it didn’t work. Sometimes it happens. Mistakes like that can’t happen in big time match situations. Hopefully Cody is taking notes.
Gavin Kirkland: I hope you still have that salt when Cody beats you.
Donovan Duke: I would be more than happy to help Cody and listen to his frustrations, Gavin. But when Cody is in the frame of mind he has been in, there is no breaking through to him. I wish him the best with his career and I wish him success, but his success isn’t going to come at my expense with that attitude.
Deadprez: Charlie isn’t happy that the referee stopped the count and Charlie is getting in the face of the referee, really letting them hear the riot act while Veena is yelling from ringside.
Eve: Charlie’s annoyance at the referee is giving Cody all the time in the world to recover and that could be very detrimental to Charlie and that’s exactly what is happening.
Gavin Kirkland: Cody is back on his feet and he is crouching down waiting for Charlie to turn around and that’s exactly what he does. CHARLIE BE CAREFUL–
Eve: “LIGHTS OUT”! WHAT A PUNCH BY CODY MAVERICK AND THAT LOOKED LIKE A KNOCKOUT PUNCH AND CHARLIE GOES DOWN! Charlie could be out cold as Cody drags Charlie over to the ropes.
Donovan Duke: Cody’s past as a boxer really adds extra damage to those punches of his. That’s something that anybody who faces Cody should watch out for. That’s gonna be interesting. Boxer against Country Brawler.
Deadprez: Cody looks back at Charlie BEFORE HE RUNS TO THE ROPES! CODY JUMPS UP TO THE TOP ROPE AND HE HITS THE SPRINGBOARD MOONSAULT! PLEASE! DON’T! DIE!
Gavin Kirkland: Beautiful moonsault by Cody. I’ll give him that credit and it was a direct hit on Charlie Marr and Cody hooks the leg. Will it be enough?
ONNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWOOOOOO!
THHHHHHRRRRRRREEEEEE!
Eve: FOOT ON THE ROPE! CHARLIE GOT THE FOOT ON THE ROPE AND THE REFEREE SAW IT! THAT STOPS THE COUNT, BUT WHAT A NEAR FALL FOR CODY MAVERICK!
Donovan Duke: That was very close and Cody could have had it there, but I think he overlooked the fact that Charlie was very close to the ropes.
Deadprez: That is a small mistake made by Cody and it could come back to haunt him as he brings Charlie back to his feet and brings him back to the center of the ring BEFORE PLANTING HIM WITH A SIDE RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP!
Gavin Kirkland: Cody is back to his feet and he yells out his name BEFORE COMING BACK DOWN AND HITTING THE JUMPING ELBOW DROP! ELBOW WENT RIGHT INTO THE HEART OF CHARLIE MARR!
Donovan Duke: Some people would think doing something like that is extremely vain or egotistical, but I can respect the confidence that he has in himself.
Deadprez: The confidence is continuously growing within Cody Maverick and Cody brings Charlie back to his feet and lifts him up in the air and keeps Charlie up there for a moment BEFORE BRINGING HIM DOWN WITH THE VERTICAL SUPLEX!
Eve: Charlie is back down and Cody doesn’t waste another second as he once again brings Charlie back to his feet and kicks him to double him over.
Gavin Kirkland: Cody has the gutwrench applied AND CODY LIFTS CHARLIE UP IN THE AIR TO DRIVE HIM DOWN WITH A POWERBOMB–
Eve: CHARLIE FALLS BACK AND TAKES CODY WITH HIM AND HE COUNTERS WITH A MODIFIED HURRICANRANA! CHARLIE REACHES BACK AND GRABS THE LEG FOR THE COVER! CHARLIE COULD STEAL IT HERE!
ONNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!
THHHHHHHHRRRREEEEEEE!
Deadprez: CODY KICKS OUT AT TWO! THAT WAS A VERY CLOSE NEAR FALL FOR THE HALL OF FAMER! Both competitors are getting back to their feet, but Charlie is up first AND HE DELIVERS A BIG BOOT CATCHING CODY IN THE FACE!
Donovan Duke: That boot to the face could have loosened a few of his teeth right there. Damn what a shot. These two have honestly been going all out against each other. I’ll be honest, if this is the intensity that Cody will bring, our Iron Man match will no doubt steal the show.
Gavin Kirkland: Sad you won’t win the match.
Donovan Duke: If you are trying to get me to lose my temper, it isn’t gonna work. I have taken worse shit from people around here. Just don’t start crying like you did at the Last Stand.
Eve: Damn!
Deadprez: Charlie has made it to the second rope as Cody is now back on his feet AND CHARLIE JUMPS OFF THE SECOND ROPE AND CATCHES CODY WITH “DEATH OR GLORY”! EUROPEAN UPPERCUT CONNECTS AND CHARLIE GOES FOR THE COVER!
ONNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!
THHHHHHHHRRRREEEEEEE!
Gavin Kirkland: CODY GOT THE SHOULDER UP! He barely got the shoulder up as the referee was coming down for three.
Eve: Charlie is done with this match as he grabs Cody and brings him back to his feet and FIRES OFF THE DISCUS LARIAT! “CHARING CROSS” ON THE WAY–
Gavin Kirkland: HE DUCKED IT! CODY AVOIDED THE LARIAT AND CHARLIE WAS TAKEN OFF BALANCE! CODY TURNS CHARLIE AROUND AND KICKS HIM IN THE GUT BEFORE GRABBING HIM BY THE HEAD–
Deadprez: “SIN CITY STUNNER”! WHAT A STUNNER BY CODY MAVERICK! THAT ROCKED CHARLIE AND HE IS DOWN AT THE MOMENT AND HE COULD BE OUT AS CODY ROLLS CHARLIE OVER FOR THE COVER AND HOOKS THE LEG!
ONNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!
THHHHHHHHRRRREEEEEEE!
(DING! DING! DING!)
(“Kostas” starts playing again as the crowd gives a mixed reaction to Cody, who has rolled off of Charlie and is taking a moment to catch his breath before cutting to Donovan Duke still sitting at commentary looking very impressed as Gina Romano announces the final decision of the match.)
Gina Romano: Here is your winner… CODY MAVERICK!
Deadprez: To say the least, that was a hard hitting match between two very tough competitors on the Showdown roster. They literally beat the hell out of each other. What do you have to say about the match, Duke?
Donovan Duke: It was to be expected considering the two men who were in the ring. They are both hard hitters and I wouldn’t expect any differently from Charlie and Cody.
(Cody has made it back to his feet and the referee raises his arm in victory before Cody stays in the ring and soaks in his victory as Veena slides into the ring and helps roll Charlie out of the ring to check on him.)
Gavin Kirkland: Cody really showed out in this match with the way he took down Charlie Marr. It looks like he’s trying to make a statement toward you, Donovan, for your match in a few weeks.
Donovan Duke: I will agree. He did make a statement with this victory. I applaud his victory. I really do, but he can make as many statements as he wants before the match. I wasn’t expecting this match to be easy at all. I knew what I was getting myself into when I accepted his challenge. I know that I am going to have to fight my ass off to win, but Cody is going to have to go even further in order to take me down. I welcome the challenge!
Eve: Good way to look at it, Donovan. Charlie fought hard in the match and almost had the match won on a few occasions. Unfortunately, it wasn’t enough and he will have to find another way to get more momentum as he and Veena head to Road to Redemption for their tag team match.
(Cody slides out of the ring and walks right over to the commentary table and gets right in Donovan’s face. Donovan stands up from the table and slowly takes off his headset and locks eyes with Cody getting right back in Cody’s face.)
Deadprez: Well this is about to get interesting as Cody Maverick has left the ring and has come over to commentary table and confronting his opponent at Road to Redemption and Donovan has stood up from the commentary table
Eve: Alright, Donovan. Cody. Back it up. There’s a time for you two to fight and it’s not right now. There is no need to get physical.
Gavin Kirkland: That’s right. That’s at Road to Redemption. Cody ran through Charlie Marr and he’s going to run through Donovan Duke.
Deadprez: Cody Maverick got a huge victory here on Showdown and we offer our congratulations to him on the victory against Charlie, but what we have in front us is one of the high profile matches at Road to Redemption. Cody Maverick. Donovan Duke. Thirty Minute Iron Man match. What a match that’s going to be between these two.
(The final shot shows Donovan and Cody still standing face to face and almost nose to nose as they stay locking eyes with each other and neither one is showing intimidation to the other as the camera shot fades elsewhere.)
(The camera fades in to ringside where the lights have dimmed with only a dim blue light in the ring as organ music begins to play.)
Eve: Well that’s not creepy at all…
(As the music continues to play at least a dozen of hooded druids make their way down to the ring. As the music slowly begins to fade two hooded men enter the ring and unmask to reveal Ruler and Zariah to boos from the crowd.)
Deadprez: We are Showdown and WE WRESTLE. And we have also been taken over by some sort of demonic cult. But that is just kind of how we roll on Saturdays.
Gavin Kirkland: I think Ruler is pretty badass.
Eve: You are thinking about becoming a druid aren’t you Gavin?
Gavin Kirkland: I mean… druids get the bitches. Didn’t you know?
Eve: I did not know this. I did not need to know this.
(The music fades out as Zariah presents Ruler with a microphone and waits for the crowd to quiet down before he begins to speak.)
Ruler: I have gathered the Congregation before you all to extend an invitation. But first I must extend something else. I must extend out… a warning… Not simply to my opponents in the Extreme Elimination Chamber Match at Road to Redemption. No… I have thought far beyond that! I have looked into the future to when I have ushered in the change that you all so desperately crave. When I have become the EAW Answers World Champion. It will be a time of great change but this also means a time of great turmoil. Which is why I am warning the entire Showdown Brand… be prepared…
Crowd: RULER SUCKS! RULER SUCKS! RULER SUCKS!
Eve: Clearly the crowd likes Showdown as it is…
Ruler: I would not expect you to understand… But you will! Oh you will! And you will begin to understand when you close your mouths. Close your hearts… and listen. Stand now and gather before me with my great Congregation… And listen! Listen to the words of NICHOLISM! The words that are now gospel here on Showdown! Here in MY WORLD!
Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Ruler: Perhaps you are not the ones who need to hear the gospel. Perhaps it is others. So let me again repeat what I have said before. Let me extend once more an invitation to the old guard. To the conservative change-defying relics of the past. Let me welcome out to you all to visit my congregation a gathering of pagan savages. Perhaps they shall be converted by the gospel of NICHOLISM yet…
(‘Sweet Dreams’ by Eurythmics hits as the crowd begins to boo even more than they had before. The lights in the arena don’t change and soon her theme is drowned out by loud organ music. Bursts of fire and smoke shoot out on stage but Harper just shrugs at them.)
Harper Lee: Oooh so scary! Hahaha!
(Harper Lee is shown laughing as she mockingly dusts off the shoulder of a druid standing alongside the entrance ramp.)
Harper Lee: You know something Ruler… I find you really amusing. I really do! I mean you are a real character. You are one of the more unique individuals on the Showdown roster and I have to give you credit for that. But honestly it is so transparent don’t you think? I mean maybe you have all of these people here in Saskatchewan fooled. They aren’t exactly the brightest!
Crowd: HARPER SUCKS! HARPER SUCKS! HARPER SUCKS!
Harper Lee: But unlike all of you… unlike all of you. I see all of this ridiculousness that Ruler brings out here on a weekly basis as exactly what it is. You come out here and want us all to be afraid to think you are some kind of supernatural presence. Like your words have any real kind of intelligence behind them at all. But I see it for exactly what it is Ruler. It’s all just smoke and mirrors. And I’m not impressed!
(PUT EM IN THE FRIDGE – By Peso Pluma (ft. Cardi B) hits as the crowd continues to boo.)
Eve: Definitely not a lot of winners here tonight with this crowd. I think they are actually warming up to Ruler…
Roberto De La Rosa: You know Harper can come out here and complain about whatever this mierda is that Ruler does every week. Try to “expose” him or whatever. No me importa… I just don’t have the time to care about something like that! So while Harper wastes her time I will be focusing on what really matters. WINNING! Which is exactly what Roberto De La Rosa does best! And it all starts at Road to Red-
(Roberto De La Rosa is quickly cut off by the music as “Mr. Rager” – Kid Cudi begins to blast over the speakers to cheers from the crowd and Elysium steps out onto the stage.)
Jon Kelton: That’s great Roberto. You don’t care about Harper. Harper doesn’t care about Ruler. We don’t care about you.
Bronson Daniels: You care about winning but you won’t get the opportunity to because that’s what we care about. Just like we took the opportunity to cut you off before you had a chance to spew some more bullshit. We will take the opportunity to work together and guarantee that Elysium walks out of the Extreme Elimination Chamber with the EAW Answers World Championship!
Jon Kelton: 100% guaranteed!
Bronson Daniels: Things are going to change!
Jon Kelton: Facts!
Bronson Daniels: But not like Ruler says they will change!
Jon Kelton: Double facts!
Ruler: …
(Suddenly “Ambitionz az a Ridah” by Tupac hits as the crowd continues to cheer. TLA appears on stage as he begins to make his way down to the ring.)
TLA: This is so dumb for real. I mean y’all talkin’ bout some change. Talkin’ bout some opportunity. Talkin’ bout some smoke and mirrors. But that’s all it be muchachos. It all just be some talk. So you know me. I be all bout throwin’ manos. Remember that fuck shit Ruler pulled last week? He done gave us an invitation so I gotta ask y’all this pregunta… What the fuck we waiting for homies?
(Everyone on stage looks at each other briefly. Then they look down towards the ring where Ruler and the druids are. They all nod at each other before rushing the ring at full speed.)
Eve: Oh shit! The melee is on!
Deadprez: IT’S ON! WE HAVE LOST CONTROL! THE CONTENDERS ARE BEATING THE SHIT OUT THE DRUIDS!!!
(All kinds of chaos erupts as everyone is brawling at ringside. However, in the chaos it becomes obvious that Harper Lee only ran halfway down to the ring before making her way back up to the stage not getting involved in the conflict. Harper pulls the entrance curtain aside and leaves to the backstage area as everyone else continues to fight.)
Gavin Kirkland: Smart move Harper. Let the others tear each other apart and then return to pick up the pieces later.
Eve: TLA JUST LUNGED OVER THE TOP ROPE AND TACKLED ZARIAH!!! ZARIAH IS GETTING THE SHIT BEATEN OUT OF HIM BY THE ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION!!!
Deadprez: Elysium is taking out druids all by themselves! Roberto De La Rosa is up on the top rope and he is leaping at Ruler! FLYING CROSSBODY TAKES RULER DOWN!
(Ruler rolls away from Roberto De La Rosa and quickly gets out of the ring as more druids enter the ring.)
Eve: But TLA and Roberto De La Rosa just took the druids out of the ring with a Double Team Dropkick! Elysium is throwing druids over the barricade and into the crowd! The Extreme Elimination Chamber participants are clearing out Ruler’s entire Congregation here tonight!
(TLA is shown hitting a Mexican Destroyer on Zariah in the ring as Ruler begins to get back into the ring.)
Deadprez: But Elysium is now in the ring too and Ruler decided to back off!
Eve: And here comes the referees and officials to get this show back under control! It is clear that tonight was all about getting some payback on Ruler!
Deadprez: Ruler is heading out with the remainder of his druids as he is calling them off! The crowd is going insane!
Gavin Kirkland: Ruler is going to be gunning for payback after this! There’s no telling what he’s capable of!
(The officials restore order and clear out the ringside area as we fade to a commercial.)
(A commercial airs for Cobra Kai the final season.)
(Showdown comes back from commercials as the camera focused towards the announcer’s table first, where the National Elite Champion SOSA Henderson was sitting in. He put a confident grin on his face and a relaxed position in the chair.)
Gina Romano: ACCOMPANYING US IN COMMENTARY! HE IS THE NATIONAL ELITE CHAMPION, SOSAAAAAAA HENDERSOOOOOOOONNNNN!
Eve: Pleasure to have you here in commentary, SOSA!
SOSA Henderson: Glad you have it because I am not really here to play it up with y’all that much, I am just here to watch my opponent and see how he does if you don’t mind.
Deadprez: Man all about the business, I respect that.
SOSA Henderson: That is why I am the champion.
(At that moment though, “Olé” by the Bouncing Souls played on the speakers and the Canadian crowd started cheering incredibly loudly in every way. Ryan calmly walks out of backstage, breathing in and out to himself, ready and focused for this important match against the Answers World Champion but seeing such a reception, he ends up cracking a smile and then starts getting hyped up! He raises his arms up and gets the people of Saskatchewan to get even louder, as he runs down the ramp and then accepts all of the high fives and support from the people in the front row.)
Gina Romano: INTRODUCING FIRST, FROM MONTREAL, QUÉBEC, CANADAAAA! WEIGHING AT 225 POUNDS! HE IS “THE WORKHORSE”. RYAAAAANNN… JOSEEEEEEEEEEEEPPHHHHH… WILSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNN!!!
SOSA Henderson: As for Ryan though… I can’t say the same.
Eve: Give him a break, SOSA. There is a reason why Ryan ended up achieving that championship shot against you in the first place, he has truly worked hard to be able to fix his public image and he has turned into such a genuine inspiration for the people that watch.
SOSA Henderson: Of course, I am not saying that he has not worked hard, I can give him that. But considering the circumstances of our match, and I am heading into our match… basically in enemy territory… I am going to be forced to take the role of the bad guy, y’know?
(After Ryan took his time to accept the support of the crowd, he got into the ring and calmly took his corner. As his theme song stopped and it was replaced by “Ambitionz az a Ridah” by Tupac, the crowd cheered again but not as loudly as TLA slowly walked into the entrance stage looking down, he stretches his neck before he lifts his head up and then raises the Answers World Championship up in the air, grinning to himself and once again having an incredible time as he prepares himself to go into another match to beat some Canadian ass, even though Ryan cool.)
Gina Romano: AND HIS OPPONENT, FROM TLAXCALA, MEXICO, WEIGHING IN AT 210 POUNDS, HE IS THE ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION, HE IS “LA PANTERA SEXUAAALLL!”, T! L! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!
SOSA Henderson: But even with that, truly, I don’t think he has it in him to beat TLA.
Deadprez: TLA has had another amazing reign when it comes to being the world champion, as he took every challenge that has been thrown at him and has come out of it continuing to win and add to his legacy, you are right when it comes to the fact that it is going to be an incredibly tough challenge for Ryan, but I know that the two are going to leave it all in the ring to come out on top here.
(A few people in the front row got high fives from TLA as TLA went down the ramp and got inside, he put his jacket and championship away in his corner as he got ready as well.)
(DING! DING! DING!)
Gavin Kirkland: AND HERE WE GO- oh, lame start here.
Eve: A very honorable way to start off the match here as instead of locking up, Ryan moves over and decides to extend a hand towards the Answers World Champion, TLA! And of course, TLA walks over with a big grin on his face…
Deadprez: And he accepts the handshake! Some very honorable action here from the two competitors in this match.
Gavin Kirkland: Maaan, none of the goats I like to watch are in this match, I am going to suffer 😔
Eve: Well, this kind of thing was obviously going to happen with both Ryan and TLA, the two of them are very much well-liked and respected at this point of their careers, and even though you can try and bring success as a difference between them, the two of them genuinely respect and think highly of the other one and are willing to just give an amazing match for the crowd.
SOSA Henderson: Give praise to Ryan Wilson all you want right now, even somehow, someway, on a specific day, you can get me to feel bad for him, but when it ends up coming down to our match… there won’t be any mercy.
Eve: The two competitors finally back up and they quickly go here into a lockup! TLA is trying to gain a quick advantage here and trying to use his strength to push Ryan back but Ryan is able to go down low and grab onto his waist instead of going for a tug of war here, turning over and then pushing TLA to the ropes!
Deadprez: Referee calling out to get away from the ropes as TLA puts his hands up and Ryan backs away, once again in a respectful manner, but TLA says something to him and taunts him a bit. Ryan points to the crowd and then towards the world champion, before Ryan moves forward…
Gavin Kirkland: SLAP! A LOUD CHOP RIGHT ACROSS TLA’S CHEST THAT IS HEARD ALL ACROSS THE ARENA HERE! TLA winces a bit but he pushes through the pain here and claps Ryan here for the attempt! And Ryan puts his arms behind his back and lets… TLA get a hit too? Okay, I don’t want to sound like Persephone, but we don’t need all of this.
Eve: I think it is a nice change of pace here! TLA this time raises his arms up and tries to get the crowd hyped! As he pulls his arm back… AND THEN SLAPS RYAN RIGHT ON THE CHEST WITH ANOTHER LOUD CHOP! Ryan winces as well but he shakes it off and nods back!
Deadprez: And the two once again get ready and they go back to locking up! Ryan tries again to use his speed here, going low once more, spinning around and trying to grab TLA’s waist from behind!
Eve: TLA ends up scouting that one out as he quickly uses his speed to go around Ryan as well and go behind his back, grabbing him by the waist and then lifting him up for a German- Well, Mexican Suplex!
Gavin Kirkland: Wilson stops TLA from lifting him up as he shifts his weight forward and gets back down onto the mat, grabbing TLA by his wrist and then twisting it over to the side, trying to get in an arm lock here!
Deadprez: But knowing TLA, he does not stay in one place for too long! As he quickly rolls forward and then backflips back onto his feet, untwisting his arm away from Ryan’s grasp before grabbing onto TLA and then finally getting a headlock in on Ryan! Very impressive from the world champion!
SOSA Henderson: Letting a guy like TLA get going and get speed was his first mistake.
Eve: But Ryan does not stop either and gets his chance here to push TLA towards the ropes bit by bit before running forward and bouncing TLA off of him with the help of the ropes! Instead of letting TLA bounce back he runs after him and tries to go for-
Deadprez: TLA ducks down and then lifts Ryan up high, trying to throw him over the ropes!
Gavin Kirkland: But Ryan is able to land down on the ring apron and save himself, he ends up hitting TLA right on the head and gets ready to fly here! As he ends up lifting himself up into the ropes and then tries to go for a springboard forearm-
Eve: And TLA is able to grab Ryan before he can jump off! He gets him on his shoulders and runs to the side, trying to go for a Death Valley Driver!
Deadprez: Ryan is able to slip down behind TLA just in time before he can hit it as he pushes TLA towards the ropes yet again! He bounces off of them and that gives Ryan the chance to jump onto the ropes and then springboard yet again, going for a Tornado DDT-
Gavin Kirkland: AND TLA INSTEAD CATCHES HIM YET AGAIN, TWISTING IT OVER AND HITTING THE DEATH VALLEY DRIVER THIS TIME!
SOSA Henderson: He tried to play TLA’s game of going to the sky and then he ended up falling, would like to call that a dumbass move but I am in a good mood so I will just say it is better he does not try that again.
Eve: SOSA is right on this as letting TLA get some airtime and some momentum can be an incredibly devastating combination to deal with as TLA quickly has his eyes set and then runs forward towards the ropes yet again, jumping onto them and then going for a Springboard Moonsault-
Deadprez: Ryan ain’t done yet though! He puts up his knees and TLA is forced to land down gut first onto them! Ryan rolls backwards onto his feet and takes his chance here, running towards the ropes and then getting some speed here… BEFORE RUNNING FORWARD AND THEN HITTING A NORTHERN LARIAT RIGHT ACROSS TLA’S HEAD! DAMN!
Eve: Ryan got a good hit there as TLA falls down from the lariat and Ryan drops down, moving quickly to pin him!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOO-
Gavin Kirkland: Obviously not enough to take the world champion down, as he moves and ends up kicking out at two! Ryan is forced to roll away and has to re-think the strategy on how to take down TLA.
Deadprez: Ryan not letting this get to him as he calmly gets up to his feet and then gives TLA a chance to get up, giving him some room and doing more honorable stuff here.
SOSA Henderson: In a fight you ain’t let the other guy get up and give you the chance to knock your lights out, you take everything that you can get to make sure he does not move anymore. I am genuinely trying to give leeway here but this is just ridiculous.
Eve: I have a different opinion when it comes to that but I won’t doubt the National Elite Champion.
Gavin Kirkland: Oooh, now when an actual wrestler is here, you don’t want to speak up.
SOSA Henderson: Stop speaking to the lady.
Gavin Kirkland: I- But I-… man. :mjcry:
Eve: :mjgrin: Would love to see Gavin continue to get verbally smacked but we have a match to commentate! TLA finally gets up and then rolls towards his feet yet again, dusting himself off and giving Ryan a nod of respect…
Deadprez: TLA SUDDENLY RUNS FORWARD TOWARDS THE ROPES AND CATCHES RYAN OFF GUARD WITH HIS SPEED! RYAN TRIES TURNING AROUND AND GOING TO ATTACK BACK-
Eve: TLA IS ABLE TO CATCH RYAN OFF GUARD WITH A DISCUS LARIAT OUT OF NOWHERE! RYAN FALLS DOWN HARD AGAINST THE MAT AND TLA GOES TO PICK UP RYAN ONCE MORE, GRABBING HIM BY THE ARMS AND THEN LIFTING HIM UP HIGH IN THE AIR BEFORE DROPPING HIM DOWN HARD WITH A POWERBOMB!
Gavin Kirkland: TLA RUNS OVER AND THEN GOES TO COVER RYAN JOSEPH WILSON!
ONEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-
Eve: AND RYAN ENDS UP KICKING OUT RIGHT ON TIME AT TWO AS WELL JUST LIKE TLA!
Deadprez: TLA rolls away and grins to himself, and yep, guess he gave that nod because he was going to catch Ryan off guard and suddenly floor him down like that, but it seems it was to test him as Ryan ended up kicking out just like him.
SOSA Henderson: That man is a psychopath, he is just well liked because he knows how to hide that part about him and joke about it in a well-manered way. I love to see chaos every now and then so I don’t mind him either.
Gavin Kirkland: The world champion giving Ryan space and letting him get up as well without attacking, giving back the favor here by him. And it seems Ryan is not very happy about that as he glares towards TLA and he simply shrugs in response. I think we have reached the point where the gloves are being taken off.
Eve: Ryan, fired up, this time yelling something towards TLA and TLA casually chills against the ropes… BEFORE RUNNING FORWARD! HE GOES FOR A SPINNING ELBOW STRIKE!
Deadprez: RYAN ENDS UP DUCKING DOWN AND THEN RUNS TOWARDS THE ROPES AS WELL, BOUNCING OFF THEM AND GOING AT TLA, TRYING TO LIFT HIS LEG AND GOING FOR A KNEE-
Gavin Kirkland: TLA BACKS AWAY TOWARDS THE CORNER AS HE ENDS UP GRABBING RYAN ONCE HE JUMPS UP AND THEN POPS HIM UP INTO THE AIR!
Eve: BUT TLA ENDS UP LETTING RYAN DROP INSTEAD AS RYAN DROPS HARD FACE FIRST INTO THE CORNER AND TLA RUNS TOWARDS THE CORNER YET AGAIN, GETTING SPEED HERE AND TRYING TO GO FOR A-
Deadprez: METEORAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
Eve: RYAN IS ABLE TO GET OFF THE CORNER IN TIME AND TLA ENDS UP SLAMMING HARD AGAINST THE CORNER KNEES FIRST! RYAN GRABS TLA BY HIS HAIR AND THEN THROWS HIM OVER THE TOP ROPES, AS TLA LANDS DOWN HARD AGAINST THE FLOOR OUTSIDE!
Gavin Kirkland: RYAN FINALLY DECIDING TO TAKE SOME RISKS HERE AS HE GOES THROUGH THE ROPES AND THEN GETS TO THE RING APRON! HE JUMPS UP TO THE MIDDLE AND THEN TOWARDS THE TOP ROPE ONE JUST AS TLA GETS UP!
Deadprez: AS RYAN BOUNCES OFF THE ROPES IN AN EFFORTLESS MANNER AND HITS THE ARABIAN PRESS MOONSAULT! THE CROWD POPS INTO CHEERS AFTER THAT MANEUVER AS RYAN GETS UP TO LOUD CHEERS, THE CANADIAN CROWD FULLY BEHIND HIM!
Crowd: OLEEEEEEEE! OLE! OLE! OLEEEE! OLEEEEEEE! OLEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
(Ryan turns towards SOSA in the announcer’s table and then cracks a confident grin at him while SOSA simply keeps an incredibly serious expression on his face.)
SOSA Henderson: Is this going to happen everytime we go to Canada?
Eve: And it is most likely going to happen again at Road to Redemption but personally, I love when the crowd gets involved like this!
SOSA Henderson: Sometimes, people’s opinions are wrong, and that is okay.
Eve: Ugh. Anyway, Ryan after taking in the atmosphere from the crowd, grabs TLA and then tosses him back inside of the ring as Ryan gets up again on the ring apron. He gets ready as he-
SOSA Henderson: Mistake.
Deadprez: TLA SUDDENLY POPS UP AND HITS A RIGHT HAND AT RYAN’S JAW AS RYAN’S HANDS SLIPS AND THEN HE FALLS HARD AGAINST THE RING APRON AND THEN TOWARDS THE GROUND.
SOSA Henderson: Pandering to the crowd for what?
Gavin Kirkland: THIS GIVES THE WORLD CHAMP A CHANCE TO ATTACK HERE AS HE RUNS FORWARD TOWARDS THE CORNER AND JUMPS ACROSS IT AS RYAN ENDS UP GETTING UP! LA PANTERA!
Deadprez: GOES FLYING! TLA JUMPS OFF AND HITS A CORKSCREW PLANCHA ON RYAN!
(And as TLA lands, he ends up laying over against the announcer’s table and he strikes a tranquilo pose, grinning to himself as while some of the crowd cheers, the reaction is mixed knowing what country they are in.)
Deadprez: La Pantera Sexual once again taking in the advantage here in this match and getting a chance to brag a little bit, when it comes to this man, you can respect everything that he has done, but when it comes to who he is as a person, either he can be your friend or your enemy for life, literally no in-between.
Eve: As TLA finishes posing in the announcer’s table, he gets off of it and goes to grab Ryan, grabbing him by his hair before throwing him inside of the ring and then TLA once again gets ready! TLA jumps up onto the ring apron!
Gavin Kirkland: As he jumps over the ropes and then bounces off… INTO A SPRINGBOARD REVERSE DDT! HE SLAMS RYAN’S HEAD HARD AGAINST THE MAT WITH THAT ONE!
Deadprez: Ryan grabbing onto his head hard here from that one as TLA gets off of him and then does not let up here now that he has him! He grabs Ryan here and then lifts him up high… and then drops him down hard with a suplex! Wait!
Eve: TLA doesn’t stop here as he once again lifts up Ryan and then turns him around, lifting him up… AND THEN HITTING THE MEXICAN SUPLEX THIS TIME AS RYAN LANDS HARD AT THE TOP OF HIS BACK!
Gavin Kirkland: But TLA doesn’t cover as he rolls over and then lifts Ryan up yet again towards his feet, TLA grabbing him by his arms and then once again taunting here for a moment, TLA playing around here as he goes… for the Tiger Suplex-
Deadprez: AND THAT LITTLE MOMENT ENDED UP COSTING HIM AS RYAN PULLED HIS ARMS DOWN, WRAPPED HIS LEGS AROUND HIM AND THEN PULLED HIM DOWN INTO A SMALL PACKAGE PIN!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-
Eve: TLA KICKS OUT JUST IN TIME AND THE TWO RUSH UP TO THEIR FEET! RYAN RUNS FORWARD AND THEN TRIES TO GO FOR A CUTTER HERE TO FLOOR TLA DOWN!
Gavin Kirkland: TLA THROWS RYAN OFF OF HIM BEFORE HE CAN HIT IT AND THEN RUNS FORWARD WITH SPEED, TRYING TO GO FOR A SOCCER KICK HERE WHILE RYAN IS SEATED!
Deadprez: RYAN IS ABLE TO DUCK DOWN UNDER IT AS HE PUSHES HIMSELF UP AND EXTENDS HIS LEGS, THEY LOCK WITH TLA’S ARMS AND HE PULLS HIM DOWN FOR ANOTHER ROLL-UP HERE!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-
Eve: TLA KICKS OUT YET AGAIN AND THE TWO SCURRY UP TO THEIR FEET YET AGAIN, THIS TIME RYAN IS FASTER THOUGH!
Deadprez: HELLUVA KICK RIGHT ACROSS TLA’S FACE THAT ENDS UP DISORIENTING HIM HERE! HE GRABS TLA BY THE WAIST AND THEN LIFTS HIM UP HIGH, HITTING A NORTHERN LIGHTS SUPLEX THAT SLAMS TLA DOWN HARD!
Eve: RYAN IS NOT DONE THIS TIME YET! HE IS DOING THE SAME COMBO AS TLA DID BEFORE AS HE LIFTS HIM UP ONCE MORE, HE GRABS BOTH HIS ARMS AND THEN HITS HIM DOWN WITH A BUTTERFLY SUPLEX!
Gavin Kirkland: AS RYAN LIFTS TLA UP FOR A THIRD TIME AND THEN TURNS HIM OVER, HE TRIES TO GO FOR A-
Deadprez: TLA HITS RYAN RIGHT IN THE JAW WITH A LOUD BACK ELBOW THAT FORCES HIM TO BACK UP! TLA!
Eve: TLA JUMPS AND FLIPS OVER! THE “CARTEL KICK!” TLA GETS ALL OF THAT RIGHT AGAINST RYAN AS THE TWO DROP DOWN AND THEN TLA GOES TO COVER RYAN WILSON! IS THIS ENOUGH TO KEEP HIM DOWN?!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-
Gavin Kirkland: NO! THE WORKHORSE KICKS OUT JUST IN TIME BEFORE THREE! BUT TLA ROLLS AWAY AND DOES NOT STOP ATTACKING HERE! AS HE PUTS HIS HANDS TOGETHER AND IS GETTING READY TO FLY!
Eve: TLA RUNS TO THE ROPES AND THEN SPRINGBOARDS OFF THEM-
Deadprez: NO! RYAN GOT UP IN TIME AND AGAIN GRABBED TLA IN TIME BEFORE HE COULD JUMP! AS RYAN SPINS HIM AROUND!
Gavin Kirkland: “LA BOMBE BLEUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!”
Eve: REVERSED INTO AN INCREDIBLE HEADSCISSORS FROM TLA! RYAN GETS SENT HARD ONTO THE CORNER AS TLA GETS UP TO HIS FEET AND GOES TO THE OTHER CORNER ACROSS HIM!
Deadprez: TLA PREPARES AND THEN RUNS FORWARD! HE TRIES YET AGAIN FOR THE RUNNING METEORA!
Gavin Kirkland: RYAN SUDDENLY POPS UP TO HIS FEET WITH ENERGY AND THEN HITS TLA RIGHT ACROSS THE JAW WITH A RUNNING KNEE STRIKE! I KNOW WHAT IS THE SIGNAL FOR THIS ONE!
Eve: RYAN GOES FOR AN OPPORTUNITY HERE AS HE JUMPS UP!
Deadprez: THE “SUPERMAN PUNCH 2.4!!!” RYAN GETS ALL OF IT AS TLA DROPS DOWN AND THEN RYAN GOES TO COVER HIM AS THE CROWD IS CHEERING WILDLY FOR RYAN!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-
Eve: SO CLOSE BUT SO FAR! TLA KICKS OUT IN TIME BEFORE THE THREE YET AGAIN!
SOSA Henderson: If that is the best that he has to take me down then he might as well not try.
Eve: Don’t count out Ryan just yet! Ryan is not stopping either and wallowing in that attempt! He stumbles a bit because of the pain and the tiredness but he grabs onto TLA and backs up against the ropes, HE GRABS HIM BY HIS ARMS AND THEN LIFTS HIM UP WITH THE STRENGHT THAT HE HAS LEFT!
Deadprez: “MIC DROP!”
Gavin Kirkland: THAT DOESN’T DROP! TLA ENDS UP GRABBING RYAN AND LIFTS HIM UP, A BACK BODY DROP OVER THE ROPES!
Eve: RYAN LANDS ON THE RING APRON THOUGH AND HITS TLA WITH A PUNCH ACROSS THE BACK OF HIS HEAD! HE TURNS HIM OVER AND THEN LIFTS HIM UP HIGH FOR A VERTICAL SUPLEX! HE IS PLANNING TO HIT IT FROM THE RING APRON ONTO THE OUTSIDE!
Deadprez: TLA THOUGH STOPS IT AS HE KNEES RYAN BEFORE HE CAN HIT IT AND TLA LANDS ON THE RING APRON TOO! THE TWO BACK AWAY FROM EACH OTHER AND STARE AT EACH OTHER… THEY ATTACK AGAIN!
Eve: RIGHT STRIKE FROM RYAN!
Deadprez: LEFT STRIKE FROM TLA!
Eve: CHOP FROM RYAN!
Deadprez: CHOP FROM TLA AS WELL!
Eve: KNEE STRIKE FROM RYAN!
Deadprez: SUPERKICK FROM TLA!
Gavin Kirkland: THE TWO DON’T DROP DOWN JUST YET!
Eve: RYAN RUNS FORWARD AND THEN HITS THE “UPPERCUT QUÉBÉCOIIISSSS!!!”
Deadprez: BUT TLA DOES NOT DROP DOWN FROM IT, AS HE SPRINTS AND THEN HITS THE “MEXICAN UPPERCUUUUUUUUUTTTTTT!!!”
Eve: RYAN HOLDS ONTO THE ROPES BEFORE HE CAN FALL DOWN! HE IS STILL IN IT! HE IS NOT LETTING UP AS HE LIFTS HIMSELF UP TO HIS FEET AND THEN RUNS FORWARD-
Gavin Kirkland: TLA GRABS HIM!
Eve: SPANISH FLY OFF THE RING APROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNN!!!
Deadprez: TLA HITS A SPANISH FLY ONTO RYAN AS THE TWO JUMP OFF THE RING APRON AND LAND HARD AGAINST THE GROUND! THE TWO GOT WIPED OUT JUST LIKE THAT!
Eve: The referee seeing the two wiped out on the outside… he is forced to count!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Gavin Kirkland: The two are barely moving right now!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
FOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURRRRRR!
Deadprez: But TLA is the one to move first as he starts pulling himself up to his feet…
FIVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Eve: TLA…
SIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIXXXXXXXXXXXX!
Gavin Kirkland: GETS INSIDE OF THE RING! BUT RYAN IS STILL OUT!
SEVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENNNNNNN!
Eve: DON’T COUNT HIM OUT YET! RYAN PUSHES THROUGH THE PAIN AND THEN GETS UP TO HIS FEET AS WELL, HIS LEGS ARE WOBBLING!
EIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!
Deadprez: Ryan…
NINEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Eve: RUNS FORWARD AND TRIES TO JUMP INSIDE!
…
…
…
Gavin Kirkland: BUT SOSA GETS OFF HIS CHAIR AND GRABS RYAN’S FOOT BEHIND OUR TABLE BEFORE HE CAN JUMP INSIDE! NO WAY!
TEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!
(DING! DING! DING!)
Gina Romano: YOUR WINNER OF THIS MATCH, BY COUNT-OUT, THE ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION, TLA!
(“Ambitionz az a Ridah” plays on the speakers and the crowd ends up booing incredibly loudly at what just happened. TLA sits in the ring confused about what happened, as the championship is handed to him and his arm is raised. But Ryan is left outside in complete shock at what just happened, slowly turning and seeing SOSA simply sitting there and acting like he did not do anything, simply grinning back at Ryan.)
Eve: What the hell was that about?!
Deadprez: SOSA decided to suddenly interfere and cost Ryan the chance to enter back inside of the ring!
Gavin Kirkland: SOSA, what the-
Eve: RYAN SUDDENLY TURNS AROUND AND JUMPS ONTO SOSA! RYAN THROWING ALL OF THE STRIKES HE HAS ONTO SOSA AS THE CROWD CHEERS IN SUPPORT!
Deadprez: SOSA STARTS ATTACKING BACK AND THE TWO BACK AWAY TOWARDS THE BARRICADE!
Eve: RYAN ENDS UP CLOTHESLINING SOSA OVER THE BARRICADE! HE JUMPS OVER AND HE DOES NOT LET UP ON THE ATTACK!
Gavin Kirkland: RYAN AND SOSA CONTINUE TO THROW STRIKES AND PUNCHES AT EACH OTHER AS THE TWO HEAD DEEP INTO THE CROWD! UH! LET’S GO TO COMMERCIAL BREAK FIRST AS WE RESOLVE THIS!
(The last shot shown is of Ryan and SOSA not letting up in their strikes and brawling through the crowd before Showdown goes to commercials.)
(Backstage we see Kyra Phillips with a mic in hand, she smiles while talking to the camera.)
Kyra Phillips: As Showdown continues, I would like to introduce at this time, a woman that will compete for the Universal Women’s Championship inside the Extreme Elimination Chamber, none other than Miku Sakai.
(Miku walks into the scene and she doesn’t look very happy. She takes a second before speaking.)
Kyra Phillips: Miku thanks for –
(But before she can ask her any questions, Miku snags the mic from her hands.)
Miku Sakai: STOP! Just Stop! Listen to me closely, Kyra and all those dumb fucks out there as well! What happened in that Lumber Jack and Jill match was bullshit! Milli Banks wants to interfere in my matches when I was about to bust that coconut of Veena Adams with a baseball bat, but nooooo… Milli suddenly is best fucking friends with that bitch, Veena Adams!?
(She4 pauses for a second as Kyra tries to take the mic from her, but Miku yanks it again and gets right in her face.)
Miku Sakai: DON’T YOU DARE PISS ME OFF! DO YOU HEAR ME!?
(Kyra can only nod her head.)
Miku Sakai: I have done everything that has been asked of me and yet Kennedy Street is an idiot! I won a championship opportunity and where is it, huh!? The Chamber!? Are you fucking kidding me!? For years, I have been told that I was the one holding IDOL-GUN down, that Hikari was always the better wrestler, the one that would be the World Champion and I would just disappear into nothing but midcard mediocrity and yet I have made it to TWO finals in the Empress of Elite and Iconic Cup Tournaments, I have defeated some of the best including former World Champions, the last time I was in any semblance of a Lumber Jack I won the Specialist Championship! But now I am supposed to take a backseat to Milli fucking Banks!?
(The camera shows Miku seething, the crowd and the EAW have never seen her like this before.)
Miku Sakai: NO! Hikari is long gone, and I am still here! The disrespect has gone too far, do you hear me!? Milli Banks!? You are NOT walking out of that Chamber as the Universal Women’s Champion! You will not survive that Chamber, that much I promise! Then we have who? Holly Arrow? Are you fucking kidding me? Ns. Extreme!? Another Loser!? Bea Valentine!? Bitch please, she is so fragile and dramatic! KASAI!? She JUST lost to Milli! It is going to be ME!
(She again pauses for a second, then turns back to the camera this time gritting her teeth with a scowl on her face.)
Miku Sakai: You have no idea what you did Milli! And these other bitches that think they have a chance who have blown them consistently for the last few seasons, well they don’t stand a chance either! And tonight? I’m going to be watching Milli…. And I am going to make sure that you know who the fuck Miku Sakai is! Your NEXT Universal Women’s Champion!
(Miku throws the mic at Kyra Phillips before storming off.)
Kyra Phillips: You heard it from Miku. Let’s go down to the ring for the Main Event.)
(The camera fades to ringside and Gina Romano as she is ready to make the introductions to the main event.)
(Saturday Night Showdown returns from its final commercial break with a graphic flashing across the screen to prompt loud cheers from the crowd. Gina Romano is already standing in the ring, microphone in hand, preparing to announce the main event.)
Gina Romano: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!… YOUR MAIN EVENT OF THE EVENING IS A TAG TEAM MATCH SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL!
Crowd: ONE FALL!
(‘True Love’ by CFO$ plays as Kassidy Heart and Sienna Jade make their entrance to a thunderous wave of boos from the crowd. Both women revel in the reaction, flaunting the Unified Tag Team Championships proudly displayed around their waists. However, their moment is abruptly cut short as ‘Sweet Dreams’ by Eurythmics blares through the speakers, signaling Harper Lee’s arrival. Harper walks out with a focused demeanor, completely ignoring the Jaded Hearts as she strides purposefully toward the ring. Kassidy and Sienna exchange disgusted looks, clearly unimpressed by Harper’s disregard, before eventually following her to the ring for the match.)
Gina Romano: INTRODUCING FIRST!… THE TEAM OF… STAR PLATINUM, HARPER LEE!… AND THE EAW UNIFIED TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS!… KASSIDY HEART AND SIENNA JADE!… TOGETHER, THEY ARE… JADED HEARTS!!!!!!!!!
Eve: An interesting matchup is set for this week, and it will be fascinating to see how it plays out. Harper Lee has made it clear that she doesn’t like anyone in this match, and working with the Jaded Hearts must feel like a terrible fate for her while the Jaded Hearts are focused on building more momentum and securing another victory as they head into Road to Redemption in two weeks.
Gavin Kirkland: That’s cool but LADIES! LADIES! I LOVE LADIES! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Deadprez: We definitely have to see how this plays out because, on the other hand, this main event features a very stacked lineup that could make this match an absolute joy to watch as the action unfolds!
(Harper Lee enters the ring as she’s still pointedly ignoring Jaded Hearts. Kassidy and Sienna exchange disgusted looks at her behavior but ultimately choose to focus on preparing for the match. ‘Mr. Rager’ by Kid Cudi hits, and Bronson Daniels and Jon Kelton make their entrance. Elysium walks out together, their expressions serious as they lock eyes with Jaded Hearts, clearly remembering the events of The Last Stand. They pause on the ramp, waiting for their final partner to join them as ‘Changed It’ by Nicki Minaj (feat. Lil Wayne) hits. The EAW Universal Women’s Champion, Milli Banks, strides out confidently, her championship gold proudly displayed around her waist. Milli joins her teammates. Milli exchanges smirks with Bronson and Kelton, a clear sign of mutual respect and understanding as the trio makes their way to the ring together.
Gina Romano: INTRODUCING THEIR OPPONENTS!… THE TEAM OF!… THE HONORED ONE, BRONSON DANIELS AND THE LAST HOPE, JON KELTON!… THEY ARE… ELYSIUM!… AND THE EAW UNIVERSAL WOMEN’S CHAMPION!… MILLI BANKS!!!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Couldn’t ask for a more perfect tag team than this when you have three of the biggest faces of the blue brand uniting together! Milli Banks, Jon Kelton, and Bronson Daniels of Elysium are here in the main event scene!
Eve: This might just be the strongest “can they co-exist” tag team concept yet, considering the potential relationships these three could forge with one another, not to mention the success that both Milli and Bronson had earlier this year at Territorial Invasion!
Deadprez: It’s going to be interesting to see how these two teams work together. One side might already have the upper hand, but unpredictability is always in play. Harper and the Jaded Hearts could use their professionalism to turn this competition in their favor!
(DING DING DING!)
Gavin Kirkland: Main Event time, baby! Take a look at this incredible lineup of competitors we have tonight, this promises to be nothing short of another stellar main event! The Jaded Hearts and their unholy alliance with Harper Lee will face off against Milli Banks and Elysium!
Eve: One-half of Elysium, Bronson Daniels, has already proven his teamwork capabilities when he joined forces with Milli Banks and Veena Adams back at Territorial Invasion, bringing glory to the brand by winning the War Games main event. Tonight, they reunite once again, but this time, it’s Elysium teaming up with Milli Banks, making this matchup even more exciting.
Deadprez: Milli Banks and Harper Lee square off, meeting at the center of the ring. Milli Banks gears up, ready to face Harper Lee, who teases a test of strength… BUT HARPER IMMEDIATELY STRIKES FIRST, HITTING MILLI WITH A DROPKICK TO THE LEGS, TAKING THE ADVANTAGE RIGHT OFF THE BAT!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Harper knows exactly what kind of competitor Banks is, especially after their previous encounters. Banks tries to get off the ground, but Lee wastes no time, rushing forward and taking her back down with another dropkick to the legs!
Eve: Lee quickly rises to her feet as Banks struggles to stand. Harper bounces off the ropes… attempting another dropkick, this time aimed at Banks’ chest! However, Milli avoids the attack, causing Harper to crash to the mat! Milli quickly goes for a cover!
Deadprez: Harper kicks out immediately, even before the referee can fully start the count. Both women scramble back to their feet, ready for the next exchange!…LEE GOES FOR THE DRAGON FIST, BUT BANKS CATCHES HER ARM AND SWINGS BEHIND HER!!!!!… BANKS ATTEMPTS TO SET UP FOR THE MONEY MOVE WITH HER SIGNATURE RIPCORD SLAP!!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: HARPER COUNTERS WITH A SWIFT KICK TO MILLI’S ARM, STOPPING THE MANEUVER BEFORE IT CAN FULLY CONNECT! Lee wastes no time, firing off a sharp roundhouse kick to the side of Milli’s leg, immediately following up with another kick to her chest, sending Banks stumbling further back toward the ropes.
Eve: Harper stays on the offensive, maintaining her focus, and delivers yet another roundhouse kick, this time landing squarely on Milli’s abdomen, causing her to double over in pain! Lee forces Banks against the ropes and whips her across the ring. Banks rebounds off the ropes…
Deadprez: Lee attempts a bicycle kick, but Banks sidesteps it with expert timing! While still running, Banks quickly transitions to the second rope behind Lee… LEAPING OFF AND TAKING HARPER DOWN IN SPECTACULAR FASHION WITH A DIVING HURRICANRANA!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Harper stumbles back to her feet, clearly shaken, while Banks lands gracefully and wastes no time charging toward her!… BANKS HOOKS HARPER AND PLANTS HER WITH A SLINGBLADE, SENDING HER OPPONENT CRASHING TO THE MAT YET AGAIN!!!!! Harper is down! The Universal Women’s Champion stays locked in, wasting no movement…. BANKS IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWS UP WITH A BASEMENT DROPKICK, HITTING HARPER SQUARELY AND KEEPING HER GROUNDED!!!!
Deadprez: Lee struggles to rise from the ground, clearly in pain and fighting to stay in the match. Banks, already back on her feet, sees her opponent’s vulnerable state and wastes no time aiming to take her down further! Banks leaps forward… LOOKING TO CONNECT WITH THE DIAMOND DANCING, INTENDING TO DRIVE HARPER’S FACE INTO HER KNEES!!!!
Eve: COUNTER! Harper desperately counters! She dives toward Banks, catching her off guard and taking her down by the legs into a jackknife roll-up cover! Referee dives into position to count!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
Eve: The Champ kicks out at two, narrowly avoiding being defeated in a sneaky fashion. Banks rolls away, trying to regain her composure after being caught off guard. Harper Lee wastes no time and charges forward… AIMING TO TAKE HER DOWN IMMEDIATELY WITH A PENALTY KICK, BUT BANKS CATCHES HER LEG!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Banks attempts to keep Harper in place— HARPER SURPRISES HER WITH AN ENZUIGIRI FROM HER FREE LEG! The unexpected strike connects cleanly, snatching the opportunity away from Milli Banks and sending her tumbling backward!
Deadprez: Banks is forced back to her knees as Harper Lee repositions herself again. She now charges in… LOOKING TO FOLLOW UP WITH A SHINING WIZARD, BUT BANKS ROLLS OUT OF THE WAY JUST IN TIME!
Eve: Banks avoids the move yet again! Banks pops back to her feet as Harper turns to face her, leaping toward her and attempting a Wheelbarrow DDT but Harper counters by holding onto Banks’ momentum and forcing both of Banks’ feet back onto the ground to make her stand upright…. HARPER QUICKLY CAPITALIZES, TRANSITIONING INTO AN EXPLODER SUPLEX, DRIVING THE CHAMPION NECK-FIRST INTO THE MAT!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: What a way to turn things around for Harper Lee! She just sent Milli Banks crashing straight to the mat with authority. Harper has been preparing relentlessly for the Extreme Elimination Chamber and the opportunity to fight for the EAW Answers World Championship.
Deadprez: She’s proving tonight that she’s ready for anything Milli dares to throw her way. Lee grabs Banks by the hair, yanking her back to her feet after delivering that impactful Exploder Suplex. Lee hooks Banks around the waist, looking to send her flying overhead with a German Suplex… BUT MILLI PULLS OFF AN UNBELIEVABLE COUNTER, LANDING ON HER FEET LIKE A TRUE CHAMPION!
Eve: Lee senses something is wrong and immediately turns around to counter her opponent with a Jumping DDT but Banks counters, lifting Lee onto her shoulders and charging backward into the corner!… BANKS DRIVES LEE FACE-FIRST INTO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE, LEAVING HER SLUMPED AND VULNERABLE AGAINST THE CORNER!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Banks turns back and follows up with a punishing European Uppercut, giving Harper even less time to recover. With the momentum in her favor, Banks sets her sights on Lee, running to the opposite corner to set up her next move… BUT HARPER SURPRISES HER WITH A SUDDEN BURST OF ENERGY!!! LEE FOLLOWS HER FROM BEHIND AND NAILS BANKS WITH A RUNNING BOOT TO THE JAW WHILE SHE’S IN THE CORNER, TURNING THE TIDE ONCE AGAIN!!!!
Deadprez: Banks now takes her turn leaning against the corner, trying to regain her composure, as Lee retreats to the opposite corner to build momentum. Lee charges out… BUT BANKS EXPLODES OUT OF HER CORNER AT THE PERFECT MOMENT, DUCKING UNDER HARPER LEE’S ARM AND COUNTERING!!!! BANKS HOOKS LEE AND DRIVES HER DOWN WITH A FLOATOVER DDT, SPIKING LEE HEADFIRST INTO THE MAT!!!! BOTH COMPETITORS CRASH TO THE GROUND, LEAVING THE CROWD IN AWE AS THE MATCH HANGS IN THE BALANCE!!!
Eve: Both teams are desperately looking to make a tag. Elysium’s members stretch out their hands, urging Banks to tag them in, while the Jaded Hearts, in their characteristic mix of annoyance and impatience, also extend their arms, eager to take control of the match!
Gavin Kirkland: Harper Lee and Milli Banks crawl toward their respective corners, each trying to reach their teammates… and both make the tag!…
(TAG!)
Gavin Kirkland: Milli slaps hands with Bronson Daniels, and Harper tags in Kassidy Heart! These two rivals are about to go at it once again after their encounter at The Last Stand! Bronson bursts out of his corner, wasting no time as he charges at Kassidy… AIMING TO TAKE HER OUT IMMEDIATELY WITH MICKEY, I KNOCKED YOUR HEAD OFF!!!!!!!!
Eve: BUT KASSIDY, FULLY AWARE OF THE MOVE AND THE INTENSITY BRONSON BRINGS, ANTICIPATES HIS PLAN AND SHE LEAPS FORWARD WITHOUT HESITATION, USING BRONSON’S MOMENTUM AGAINST HIM AND FLIPPING HIM OVER, TRANSITIONING INTO A TRIANGLE CHOKE!!!!!!!! KASSIDY LOCKS IT IN TIGHTLY, LOOKING TO WEAR DOWN BRONSON RIGHT FROM THE START!!!!
Deadprez: But Daniels isn’t letting himself get fully locked in, doing everything he can to yank one of his arms free. He manages to pull it loose and starts striking Kassidy’s face repeatedly, landing sharp blows that force her to release the hold!
Gavin Kirkland: Kassidy, who has a history of concussions, becomes an immediate target for Bronson. He leaps toward her and lands a vicious Falling Elbow Smash right across her head, hitting harder each time to exploit her weak spot… BRONSON FOLLOWS UP WITH ANOTHER BRUTAL FALLING ELBOW SMASH, AS THOUGH TRYING TO CRACK HER SKULL IN HALF!
Eve: Kassidy collapses to the mat, clearly affected by the calculated strikes. Bronson now spins around… AND LANDS A SWITCHBLADE KICK DIRECTLY TO HER SPINE, CAUSING THE EAW UNIFIED TAG TEAM CHAMPION TO DROP TO HER KNEES!
Deadprez: Daniels leans against Kassidy, using her as leverage to launch himself off the ropes for his next move… BUT KASSIDY GRABS THE BACK OF HIS TIGHTS AND YANKS HIM BACKWARD WITH SURPRISING STRENGTH AND PRECISION AS SHE TRANSITIONS INTO A SNAP GERMAN SUPLEX, LOOKING TO REGAIN CONTROL OF THE MATCH!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: DANIELS INSTEAD LEAPING ONTO KASSIDY’S SHOULDERS AS SHE ATTEMPTS THE GERMAN SUPLEX, AND SPIKES HER HEAD INTO THE MAT WITH A POISONRANA!!!!!!!! OH MY GOD!!!!!!!! WHAT AN ABSOLUTELY BRUTAL MANEUVER, DIRECTLY TARGETING KASSIDY’S KNOWN WEAKNESS!!!!!!!
Eve: That could be the ultimate way to break her apart but if there’s one thing everyone knows about Kassidy Heart, it’s that she’s built for this! Even after taking such a devastating move, you can bet she’ll claw her way back to her original form in no time.
Deadprez: Daniels, not letting up for even a moment, turns back around, knowing he can’t take his eyes off Kassidy for long. He backs into the corner, setting himself up and preparing to charge out, looking to finish things off decisively!… BRONSON LOOKING TO FINISH HER OFF WITH MICKEY, I KNOCKED YOUR HEAD OFF!!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: But Kassidy Heart manages to narrowly duck underneath the elbow, just barely escaping what could have been the end! Bronson slides to the ground after the miss, quickly popping back to his feet and charging right back toward Kassidy, convinced she’s vulnerable and in pain!…. KASSIDY WITH A MASSIVE LARIAT!!!!!!!! THE SHEER FORCE SHUTS DOWN BRONSON DANIELS’ OFFENSE COMPLETELY, FLIPPING HIM INSIDE OUT AND SENDING HIM CRASHING TO THE MAT! WHAT AN EXPLOSIVE COUNTER BY KASSIDY HEART, TURNING THE TIDES IN AN INSTANT!!!!!!!!!! MY GOD!!!!!!!!
Eve: Bronson may very well be out of this match after that devastating lariat from Kassidy Heart. The move was enough to ground the high-flying Bronson, and Kassidy, now seething with rage as she immediately goes after Daniels, grabbing a fistful of his hair and repeatedly slamming the back of his head onto the unforgiving mat!
Deadprez: Relentless attack continues as she unleashes a brutal assault, showing no signs of letting up. Bronson is clearly in no condition to fight back, and Kassidy takes full advantage of the situation!
Gavin Kirkland: AND NOW SHE ESCALATES THE BRUTALITY, LEANING IN TO BITE HIS EAR OFF! The referee steps in, demanding she stop the illegal maneuver, but Kassidy only intensifies her assault! She releases Bronson momentarily, only to slam his head face-first into the mat, leaving him in a vulnerable position!
Eve: Bronson’s teammates on the apron are doing their best to motivate him, shouting words of encouragement and insisting it’s not over yet. Kassidy Heart, visibly annoyed by their voices, pauses briefly to glare at them. She then grabs Bronson by the chin, forcing him to face his teammates with soulless eyes as he weakly reaches out toward them…. BANG!!!! A BRUTAL ELBOW STRIKES THE BACK OF BRONSON’S HEAD, SENDING HIM CRASHING BACK TO THE MAT!!!!
Deadprez: Kassidy isn’t satisfied, and her relentless punishment continues. This may as well eerily mirrors the devastating conclusion of her match at Pain for Pride earlier this year during the Fate of Dynasty match!
Gavin Kirkland: Kassidy hammers away with more elbows, mercilessly targeting the back of Bronson’s head! Each strike lands harder than the last, leaving Bronson barely able to move. The referee steps in, once again forced to intervene, and pulls Kassidy away as Bronson lies motionless on the mat!
Eve: The referee quickly checks on Bronson to ensure he’s still able to continue, while Kassidy paces menacingly, her eyes fixed on her fallen opponent. This is a brutal display from Kassidy Heart!…
Deadprez: but Kassidy doesn’t waste any time or care about Bronson’s condition, ignoring the referee’s attempt to check if he can continue in the match. She immediately picks Bronson up, dragging him to his feet with ruthless intent!… KASS DRIVES BRONSON STRAIGHT INTO THE MAT WITH CHANEL N°5, PERFECTLY EXECUTED, AND BRIDGES INTO A COVER FOR THE PIN!!!!!!!!!!!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
THREE–
Deadprez: AND BRONSON STILL KICKS OUT AT TWO DESPITE THE BRUTAL PUNISHMENT KASSIDY HEART HAS INFLICTED ON HIM SO FAR! Bronson is showing incredible fighting spirit against an opponent of Kassidy’s caliber, and he’s definitely not going down just yet. Kelton and Milli are watching the match intently, and trying to encourage Bronson, willing him to keep fighting and reach out for help.
Gavin Kirkland: It’s futile at the moment as Kassidy Heart continues to dominate the match, dragging Bronson to his feet only to shove his face back down in an insulting fashion, as if dissatisfied with his efforts so far. Kass presses her boot against Bronson’s face, grinding it in to further humiliate him, the disdain and hatred clearly visible in her actions!
Eve: Kass now steps away from Bronson, positioning herself in the corner, eyes locked on her target, ready to finish him off. Bronson, barely able to stand, struggles to his feet as Kass charges out of the corner… LOOKING TO DRIVE HIS FACE INTO THE MAT WITH PAINFULLY EVER AFTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: But Bronson avoids the stomp, rolling Kassidy up from behind! Both competitors scramble to their feet… AND BRONSON STRIKES FIRST WITH A ROUNDHOUSE KICK CONNECTING WITH KASSIDY’S JAW! Bronson follows up… SWINGING BACK AND LANDING A HOOK KICK, LEAVING KASS REELING!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Bronson picks Kassidy up as she rises from the ground, lifting her and carefully placing her onto the top rope!… BRONSON HOISTS HER FURTHER OFF THE ROPES AND DRIVES HER DOWN TO THE MAT WITH A ROPE-HUNG JACKHAMMER!!!!! Kassidy crashes hard to the canvas, finally taken down by Bronson’s maneuver!
Eve: Daniels is already in excruciating pain after enduring Kassidy’s relentless punishment, and he desperately needs to make a tag. Milli is yelling at him to tag in Kelton… while Kassidy, refusing to give up easily, crawls toward Bronson to grab one of his legs!
Deadprez: Kassidy’s resilience keeps her going despite being worn down from the relentless attacks. She slowly begins to push herself off the ground as Bronson struggles toward his corner to make the crucial tag!
Gavin Kirkland: But Bronson eventually drops to the mat, using both boots to thrust Kassidy away with all his strength, sending her stumbling back into her corner!
(BLIND TAG!)
Eve: TAG! Sienna Jade steps into the ring, quickly targeting Bronson Daniels, who is just inches away from tagging in Jon Kelton. She intercepts him, sending him into the corner with an Irish whip! Daniels is slammed against the turnbuckles as Sienna immediately follows up with a sharp chop across his chest!
Gavin Kirkland: She doesn’t let up, landing another vicious chop, this time adding a slap filled with disdain, showing just how much animosity she harbors toward him, akin to Kassidy’s hatred!
Deadprez: Sienna grabs Bronson out of the corner and turns him around… SETTING HIM UP FOR WITCHES HAMMER! BUT BRONSON DUCKS UNDERNEATH THE ATTEMPT AND CATCHES SIENNA’S ARM! Bronson now hooks her over and steadies himself in position… BRONSON WITH THE GO HOME DRIVER!!!!! SIENNA IS FLIPPED UPSIDE DOWN!!!!
Eve: Kassidy Heart is already positioned in the corner, watching Bronson Daniels closely. She’s not about to let him escape after what he just did. As Bronson steps out of the corner and turns around, Kassidy charges toward him… LOOKING TO DELIVER GO TO GAWD!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: BUT BRONSON REACTS QUICKLY, LEAPING OVER HER, CAUSING KASSIDY TO COLLAPSE FACEFIRST ONTO THE MAT! Bronson scrambles back to his feet, turning around and sprinting off Kassidy’s back as she tries to recover…
(TAG!)
Gavin Kirkland: HE LAUNCHES HIMSELF TOWARD JON KELTON, WHO’S BEEN EAGERLY WAITING ON THE APRON TO MAKE THE TAG! YES! A TAG IS MADE! BRONSON LEAPS OFF KASSIDY’S BACK AND SUCCESSFULLY TAGS IN KELTON!
Eve: Kelton enters the ring with the energy he’s been saving for this moment, immediately taking charge. He strikes down a charging Sienna Jade with a quick clothesline, bringing his opponent to the mat! Kassidy Heart gets to her feet and attempts to attack Kelton from behind with a right hand, but Kelton, fully aware, ducks underneath her swing. Kelton now delivers a sharp kick to Kassidy’s abdomen!…. KELTON TAKES KASS DOWN WITH A TWIST OF FATE!
Deadprez: Kassidy rolls to the outside, visibly frustrated, while Harper Lee yells at the Jaded Hearts in disappointment. Sienna Jade gets to her feet, but Kelton immediately delivers a solid right hand, driving her further into the corner!
Gavin Kirkland: Bronson signals Kelton for a team attack, and Kelton nods before stepping aside. Both men charge at Sienna Jade simultaneously…. EXECUTING A KNEE STRIKE AND APRON ENZUIGIRI COMBINATION!!!!!
Eve: Kelton quickly drags Sienna out of the corner, lifting her onto his shoulders in a reverse position while Bronson climbs to the top rope, ready to take flight. BRONSON LEAPS OFF WITH A DOUBLE FOOT STOMP, GIVING KELTON THE OPENING TO DRIVE SIENNA WITH A BURNING HAMMER IN PERFECT COMBINATION!!!!!!
Deadprez: Harper Lee, visibly frustrated by her team’s predicament, tries to intervene, stepping into the ring but Milli Banks, sensing Harper’s intentions, rushes into the ring to intercept her…. RUNNING AND KNOCKING HARPER DOWN WITH NO FAKE BILLS HERE!!!!!!! THE IMPACTFUL SINGLE KNEE STRIKE SENDS HARPER LEE ROLLING TO THE OUTSIDE, LANDING IN THE SAME SPOT WHERE KASSIDY HEART HAD BEEN TAKEN DOWN EARLIER!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Lee, still reeling from the single knee strike delivered by the Universal Women’s Champion, is visibly dazed, while Kassidy Heart struggles to drag herself back to her feet on outside. Sienna Jade is now tossed to the outside, regrouping with her teammates.
Eve: Elysium spots an opportunity, as does Milli Banks, who quickly realizes the next move. Both members of Elysium clasp their hands together, creating a launching pad. MILLI BANKS USES ELYSIUM AS A SPRINGBOARD, ELEVATING HERSELF INTO A HIGHER VARIATION OF TOPE CON HILO, TAKING OUT HARPER LEE AND THE JADED HEARTS ON THE OUTSIDE!!!!!!! WHAT A DISPLAY OF TEAMWORK FROM MILLI BANKS AND ELYSIUM!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: Remember, you may have the advantage for now, but Sienna Jade is still the legal member of the opposing team. Milli Banks focuses her attention on Harper Lee, tossing her far from the ring and delivering a kick to Kassidy Heart to keep her from interfering any further.
Gavin Kirkland: Clearing space for Elysium, Milli creates the perfect opening to send Sienna Jade back into the ring. Elysium is ready to capitalize and finish this match. Sienna Jade, still dazed from the previous attacks, is lifted into a suplex position. Jon Kelton climbs to the second rope, positioning himself for what could be the decisive move…. ELYSIUM IS SETTING UP FOR SUPLEX AND THE DIVING FINAL ATONEMENT AS KELTON PREPARES TO SOAR!!!!!!!!!
Eve: NO! Sienna Jade interrupts the tag team maneuver, slipping out of Bronson’s grasp and shoving him toward Kelton, causing Kelton to tumble off to the apron! Bronson is left isolated in the ring, and as he turns around, he quickly launches himself toward Sienna… LOOKING TO TAKE HER DOWN WITH THE BATMAN PUNCH!!!!!
Deadprez: COUNTER! Sienna catches the arm and she hooks both of Bronson’s arms with incredible raw power, lifting him off the ground despite his struggles… CLAPBACK!!!!!! THE GORY SPECIAL SNAPS BRONSON IN HALF, LEAVING THE HONORED ONE LAID OUT IN THE CENTER OF THE RING!!!!!!! WHAT A REVERSAL FROM SIENNA JADE!!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Here comes Milli Banks rushing into the ring, looking to buy some time for Kelton to recover. She charges toward Sienna Jade, attempting to hook her for a Northern Lights Suplex!
Eve: Sienna counters yet again, shoving Milli toward the ropes and straight into Kassidy Heart, who’s back on the apron just in time after recovering from the Tope Con Hilo…. POW!!!!! HEART STOPPER PUNCH! KASSIDY’S BRUTAL PUNCH FROM THE APRON SENDS THE UNIVERSAL WOMEN’S CHAMPION STUMBLING BACKWARD INTO SIENNA!
Deadprez: Sienna lifts Banks onto her shoulders in a fireman’s carry as Kassidy re-enters the ring, signaling to Sienna for the follow-up…. FIREMAN’S CARRY THROW INTO A GERMAN SUPLEX!!!!!! LIFE’S A DRAG!!!!!!! THE DOUBLE TEAM MANEUVER FROM JADED HEARTS TAKES DOWN MILLI BANKS, ONE OF THE FIERCEST COMPETITORS IN THIS MATCH!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: And now it’s Harper Lee’s turn as she heads all the way to the top rope! Jaded Hearts clear the ring, making space for Harper Lee to take flight…. HARPER LEE WITH THE DIVING DOUBLE FOOT STOMP!!!!!1 SHE DELIVERS THE FINAL NAIL IN THE COFFIN TO MILLI BANKS!!!!!
Eve: Milli Banks is clearly out of this match after the immense and brutal teamwork from Harper Lee and Jaded Hearts. Perhaps this unexpected collaboration isn’t so bad after all. Now, Jon Kelton finds himself alone, facing a 3v1 disadvantage!
Deadprez: Kassidy Heart begins to drag Jon Kelton back into the ring, catching both of his legs as she slowly pulls him up…. SHE’S SETTING HIM UP FOR THE 33!
Gavin Kirkland: Kass is looking for Suplex De La Luna, but Kelton still has one free arm, allowing him to elbow Kass away and free himself from her grasp! Harper Lee charges at Kelton… ATTEMPTING TO HIT HIM WITH THE DRAGON FIST, BUT KELTON DODGES AND RUNS TOWARDS THE ROPES! Back off the ropes… DOUBLE FINAL ATONEMENT!!!!!!! OH WOW!!!!!! KELTON TAKES DOWN BOTH HARPER LEE AND KASSIDY HEART AT THE SAME TIME!!!!! WHAT AN INCREDIBLE COUNTERATTACK!!!!!!!!!!!
Eve: Jon Kelton is fully locked in, determined to pick up the win in this match. Sienna Jade finds herself alone against her legal opponent. Sienna, ever the opportunist, sneaks up from behind and spins Kelton around… SETTING HIM UP FOR THE WITCHES HAMMER!!!!!
Deadprez: Kelton, however, ducks under her arm and immediately hoists her onto his shoulders!… KELTON LOOKS TO DELIVER THE ANTI-LIFE EQUATION, BUT SIENNA EXPERTLY COUNTERS, APPLYING A HEADLOCK WHILE ON HIS SHOULDERS!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Kelton struggles, forced to release her, and Sienna slowly lands on her feet while maintaining the headlock. Kelton begins to maneuver around, trying to break free, and he edges closer to the ropes. Kelton then recognizing his positioning as he shoves Sienna back into the ropes and launches her off!…. KELTON CHARGES FORWARD, TRYING TO KNOCK HER DOWN WITH THE DEVIL MADE ME DO IT KNEE STRIKE!!!!!!
Eve: SIENNA CATCHES THE KNEE!!!!!!! She’s now dragging him down and turning him over, leaving his back exposed to her!… AND SIENNA JADE SCRAPES HER NAILS ACROSS KELTON’S BACK WITH A BACK RAKE, LEAVING HIM WRITHING ON THE MAT!!!!!
Deadprez: Kelton is left prone on the ground, but Sienna wastes no time prolonging the recovery. She pulls him right back up off the mat, locking him into a ripcord position once more!…. WITCHES HAMMER!!!!!!!!! RIPCORD ELBOW GOT KELTON THIS TIME!!!!!!! SIENNA KNOCKING KELTON CLEAN OFF HIS FEET AND LEAVING HIM MOTIONLESS ON THE CANVAS! SIENNA JADE IMMEDIATELY DROPS INTO A COVER ON HIM!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THREE–
Deadprez: TWO!!!!!!!! BRONSON DANIELS SLIDES INTO THE RING IN TIME JUST TO BREAK IT UP!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: That was a very close call in this intense tag team match! Daniels now drags his Elysium partner over to the corner and quickly makes the tag to become the legal man. Sienna Jade is left in the ring, unaware of the danger she’s in.
(TAG!)
Eve: Bronson spots the clear opening and takes aim straight at Sienna, who is attempting to recover but might not realize she’s on the brink of her end!…. MICKEY, I KNOCKED YOUR HEAD OFF!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: BUT WAIT! SOMEONE GRABS HIS LEG! IT’S KASSIDY HEART! She’s not letting Bronson move, but here comes Milli Banks trying to fend her off! Bronson attempts to target Sienna again, but she’s already back on her feet, charging toward him before he can regain his composure, attacking Bronson in the corner!
Gavin Kirkland: Sienna Jade tries to throw Bronson into her team’s corner, but Bronson counters and sends Sienna into the opposite corner, allowing Harper, who just recovered from Kelton’s Final Atonement, to make the tag despite pushing through immense pain!
(TAG!)
Gavin Kirkland: Lee, still hurt from the Spear, tries her best to throw the Dragon Fist at Bronson, but Bronson ducks it and quickly knocks Harper back to the ground with a Superkick, giving himself some time to recover from Sienna’s assault!
Eve: Meanwhile, Kassidy is ambushed by Milli Banks, who continues stomping on Kassidy as she’s already down against the barricade!
(SPLASH!)
Eve: Oh what the– Someone in the crowd just threw water at Milli Banks, leaving her confused about what just happened!
Milli Banks: (Off-Mic) Bitch, what the fuck–
Gavin Kirkland: But that’s not the member of EAW Universe!… IT’S MIKU SAKAI!
Miku Sakai: (Off-Mic) What’s the matter, huh? Did I just ruin your makeup? Doesn’t matter if you have any or not—you look like shit either way, you overhyped cunt.
Milli Banks: (Off-Mic) You–
Gavin Kirkland: Sakai retreats into the crowd area as Milli tries to rush over to catch her and get her revenge, but Sienna attacks from behind, dragging Milli back and slamming her onto the concrete ground! Milli is under attack, and here comes Kassidy Heart, rising from the ground as well. Kassidy grabs Milli away from Sienna and tosses her straight into the steel steps, continuing the assault without hesitation!
Eve: The assault continues as Bronson Daniels, who has just regained his senses, sees the chaos outside and realizes things aren’t looking good. He tries to step in and help, but Jon Kelton is also struggling to get back to his feet, attempting to assist as well!
Deadprez: Sienna is fully aware of the situation and quickly intercepts Kelton, shoving him away from her and Kassidy. Meanwhile, Kassidy relentlessly drives her right foot onto Milli’s head, furthering the assault—Milli might already be completely out!
Gavin Kirkland: BUT LOOK NO FURTHER IN THE RING! BRONSON TURNS AROUND AND HARPER IMMEDIATELY HITS HIM WITH THE LONELY STAR, KNOCKING HIM OUT COLD!!!!!!!!
Eve: OH!!!!!! Bronson has been taken down while trying to lend a helping hand to his teammate, but Harper has seized the opportunity to take him out! She crawls over for the cover, aiming to secure the team’s victory!!!!!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!
(DING DING DING!)
Gina Romano: HERE ARE YOUR WINNERS!… HARPER LEE AND JADED HEARTS!
Gavin Kirkland: Victory or loss might not really matter right now, as Kelton is being further assaulted, especially after Milli has already been taken out! Bronson can be seen lying on the ground as Harper releases him, watching as Kelton is attacked by Jaded Hearts.
(While the attack continues, Miku Sakai, spotted in the crowd, throws up a middle finger at Milli as she’s being assaulted.)
Miku Sakai: (Off-Mic) You fucked with the wrong elitist, bitch.
Deadprez: Harper has no business intervening and decides to leave the ring. Jaded Hearts continue their assault on Kelton, who struggles to get into the ring to check on Bronson before Sienna grabs him and slams the back of his head against the steel post, leaving him knocked out on the ground!
Eve: And what’s Kassidy thinking over there?! She’s already lifting one of the steel steps, yelling at Sienna Jade to bring him down here! What is she planning???
Gavin Kirkland: Jade drags Kelton’s limp body toward Kassidy, who looks ready to decapitate him! She’s going to remove him from the RTR Schedule! Oh no, what did Kelton even do to deserve this??? Someone has to stop this!
(Crowd suddenly erupts as Kass is jumped from behind and immediately knocked down.)
Gavin Kirkland: WAIT! THAT’S ONE HALF OF BRITISH INVASION! PANDORA PAISLEY! SHE’S HERE!!!!!!
Deadprez: And she’s not alone! Sienna Jade is also being jumped from behind! Halsey Neel is here! Kelton’s former allies have arrived to make the save! Pandora is retreating up the ramp to continue a fight with Kassidy up there, and now the fight is breaking down between British Invasion and Jaded Hearts!
Eve: We absolutely cannot wait to see how this match will play out! Halsey Neel is focused on Sienna, slamming one half of the Unified Tag Team Champions into the barricade next to the ramp and further sending her stumbling up the ramp as the brawl intensifies! There’s clearly some serious heat fueling this chaotic ending to Showdown!
(Camera focuses on Kassidy Heart, who manages to fight back with rage, throwing quick, hard fists at Pandora as their brawl continues on the stage as fight then spills into the back, with Halsey following the initial clash. Halsey lands a hard kick to Sienna, sending her crawling away in pain as the chaos moves behind the curtain.)
Gavin Kirkland: And with the fight now spilling into the backstage, we’re not sure what’s happening from here on out. Goodnight, ladies and gentlemen! We hope you enjoyed this Showdown main event and all the chaos unfolding right before your eyes!
(Camera then shifts back to Milli Banks, who is still unconscious, while Bronson Daniels, in visible pain, comes to her aid. Jon Kelton, barely able to stand, kneels down to check on her as well. Miku Sakai, from a distance, continues yelling angrily, her frustration and hatred evident in her expressions. And then… the camera cuts to Harper Lee… sitting calmly and watching everything unfold with absolute joy, clearly reveling in the chaos as the only one seemingly unbothered by the events.)
Eve: Well, it seems the chaos isn’t over yet! Look in the back, another camera catches up, and Kassidy can now be seen brawling in the parking lot with Pandora Paisley!
Gavin Kirkland: Kass tries to send Pandora headfirst into one of the car doors, but Pandora manages to block it by thrusting her right foot against the door and stabbing Kass in the face with a sharp elbow!… PANDORA NOW TRIES TO SLAM KASSIDY’S HEAD THROUGH THE CAR WINDOW, BUT THE GLASS PROVES TOO HARD, CAUSING KASSIDY TO COLLAPSE TIGHTLY IN FRONT OF IT INSTEAD!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: Halsey now walks over, targeting the injured Sienna, who is already writhing in pain from the main event. Halsey hoists Sienna up… DRIVES HER FROM THE BACK OF THE CAR ONTO THE TOP OF THE TAILGATE, SENDING SIENNA FLYING LIKE A KICKED BALL BEFORE SLIDING OFF AND HITTING THE GROUND HARD!!!!!!
Pandora Paisley: (Off-Mic) Halsey, open the trunk up!
Eve: These two are now further formulating a plan to assault Jaded Hearts. Kassidy, already trying to get back to her feet after the attack, is picked up by British Invasion as Halsey pulls open the trunk of a nearby car!
Gavin Kirkland: It seems no one locked it! With the trunk now wide open, Pandora throws Kassidy’s body into it!… OH NO! THEY ARE TRYING TO CUT KASSIDY IN HALF BY SLAMMING THE TRUNK SHUT AND PRESSING THE DOOR TIGHTER, THREATENING TO BREAK EVERY BONE IN HER BODY!!!!
Deadprez: PANDORA CONTINUES TO TORMENT KASSIDY, PRESSING HER BODY AGAINST THE CAR DOOR WITH HER RIGHT FOOT, APPLYING MORE FORCE AS KASSIDY SCREAMS LOUDER IN PAIN!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Sienna Jade is at the mercy of Halsey Neel, who relentlessly slams Jade’s face into the hard concrete ground even though Jade is barely moving at this point! HER CONDITION WORSENS AS BLOOD SPILLS FROM HER MOUTH AND HEAD!!!!! It’s a gruesome sight! I can hardly bear to watch this unfold!
Eve: Kassidy is still being tortured, but here comes the security team! They’re rushing in to put an end to this chaos! The British Invasion tries to continue their assault, but they are forced away by the swarm of security personnel stepping in to stop this brutal attack! ABOUT THE TIME!
(A lot of EAW officials and security personnel had to rush in, dragging them away while others focused on rescuing Jaded Hearts and checking on their condition. Meanwhile, both Halsey and Pandora were still trying to break through, as if they weren’t satisfied with the chaos just yet.)
Pandora Paisley: (Off-Mic) WE’RE JUST GETTING STARTED! GO ON, DOUBT US A BIT MORE, AND YOU’LL FIND OUT EXACTLY WHAT IT’S LIKE TO BE WALKING THROUGH BLOODY HELL!!!!
(And with that, the final scene of Showdown shows British Invasion being escorted away from the scene, leaving behind a shocking aftermath of the bloodied and fallen Jaded Hearts lying on the ground, surrounded by officials checking on their condition as they are both stirring as Saturday Night Showdown comes to an end.)
(EAW logo buzzes.)
