Mikaela Street
(EAW Intro plays…)
(RECAP–The recap of last week’s Showdown takes place from the Thong Nhat Stadium in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Before his match, Roberto De La Rosa comes out with his La Familia and tells the world that he is ready to be taken seriously and he is going to send a message by any means necessary in order to become a champion in EAW. He then goes on to defeat Komatsu Ogawa in singles action. Then we go backstage to Kyra Phillips, who announces the Showdown participants in the Extreme Enigma Battle Royal before Hans Grayson, Major Scotty Connor, Komatsu Ogawa, and Lucas Johnson appear and talk about who is going to win the battle royal…before all four of them are taken out by Roberto De La Rosa and La Familia with Roberto declaring that he will win the match. The next match is triple threat action as Hans Grayson pulls off the victory against Major Scotty Connor and Lucas Johnson. Next, the Answers World Champion Impact comes out saying that nobody is going to defeat him in the Elimination Chamber match and that leads to all of the other Elimination Chamber competitors to come out, which eventually leads to officials coming out to stop a potential fight. Impact watches it all go down, but is unaware that Jake snuck up on him. Impact catches on and avoids Jake with no harm done. The next match sees Abel Atami picking up the win over Lexi after Mary S. Atlas came down to ringside and argued with Antonne Prudence causing a distraction.)
(The recap continues as Kassidy Heart comes to the ring to explain that she is angry after last week with Jake Smith before saying that she doesn’t see Jake as good enough to be on the top of the mountain before listing some of her spotlight matches before Jake Smith comes out and says that no matter what, nobody will stop him from reaching the top of the mountain. After that, Kassidy sprays Jake in the eyes with pepper spray before clobbering him with his briefcase and proclaiming that she will be the last woman standing. The next match has Holly Arrow and Harper Lee defeating Jack Ripley and Alex Myers with Veena Adams as the special guest referee after Jack superkicks Alex and leaves them to the wolves. After the match, Harper attacks Holly and leaves her laying in the ring. Next, Kyra Phillips interviews Heidi Huxley who explains the rules and format of the special Contenders Scramble Match at Road to Redemption. The main event of the evening had Xander Payne getting the win over Jon Kelton. Finally, GM Kennedy Street comes to the ring and orders Donovan Duke and Adam Lucas out to the ring. She tells them that as long as she is GM, they will do what they are told. She’s already forced them to be the first two men in the chamber, but then she decides to punish them even further by making the duo take on the other four Elimination Chamber participants in a handicap match next week. Duke and Lucas are stunned and mad as they glare at a smiling Kennedy Street as the recap ends…)
(“Brick Wall” by A Day to Remember is playing throughout the beautiful Bangkok Arena in Bangkok, Thailand. The crowd in attendance is going absolutely crazy in excitement for all the Showdown action to start, especially with Road to Redemption only one week away. The crowd has on their EAW merchandise supporting their favorite EAW Elitists while others are holding up signs cheering for their favorites or ridiculing the ones that they despise. After a few moments of the camera panning through the entire crowd, the camera finally settles at the broadcast table where the trio of Deadprez, Gavin Kirkland, and Eve are sitting and ready to once again call all the Showdown Action.)
Deadprez: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN! We are only one week away from Road to Redemption! The tension and the action are both rising with each passing second. This is SATURDAY! NIGHT! SHOWDOWN! We are coming to you from the Bangkok Arena in Bangkok, Thailand! I’m Deadprez and along with Gavin Kirkland and the lovely Eve, we will be calling all the blue branded action. Let me tell you that we have an amazing show for you all tonight.
Gavin Kirkland: I love it when we are on the same page, Prezzy. So much action on tap for you all tonight and I can’t wait to see it all unfold. Ohhhhh. Tonight is going to be so good. I am so excited!!
Eve: We can definitely see your excitement, Gavin. But you are right. Tonight is filled to the brim with action. Including Alex Myers, who I heard has a lot on their mind and they are going to speak up tonight.
Deadprez: This has been building up all week and now it’s coming to a boiling point. Also tonight, Disney Representative Heidi Huxley will be in the ring and she will conduct a debate among the six Scramble match participants. Who knows how this one is going to end up. Also tonight, Kassidy Heart and Impact who are considered to be the most dangerous duo on Showdown and possibly all of EAW, have something to say and will probably guarantee victory in their respective matches. That’s tonight.
Gavin Kirkland: I’ve just got word that La Familia might have just made a few people’s hit list. More specifically, The Triangle of Terror, Major Scotty Connor, and Hans Grayson. After being on the receiving end of their terror, they are no doubt looking for some retribution. Will they get it? We will find out later tonight.
Deadprez: Finally, Mikaela Street will be conducting a sitdown interview with Mr. Cash in the Vault himself, Jake Smith tonight. Jake is no doubt in the head of the Answers World Champion and has come very close on numerous occasions to cashing in on Impact. Tonight, Jake speaks to Mikaela.
Gavin Kirkland: Am I good now, Prezzy?
Deadprez: Yeah, go ahead.
Gavin Kirkland: It’s time to talk about my favorite part of Showdown! THE MATCHES!! I love the matches because WE WRESTLE!!!
Eve: You get so hilarious when you talk about the matches, but your energy can be infectious sometimes. Tonight we are going to revisit last year’s Road to Redemption a little bit with two special Rewind Matches. First, we are going to rewatch the 24/7 Contract defense of Donovan when he defended his contract against Ronan Malosi. We are also going to rewatch the Extreme Elimination Chamber match for the Answers World Championship.
Gavin Kirkland: It’s gonna be great to rewatch last year’s Road to Redemption a little bit, but let’s talk about the present. Tonight we have three special preview matches on the card. First, we have a Specialists Elimination Chamber preview match. The challengers from Showdown collide as Mary S. Atlas takes on Lexi. We also have two special Scramble Preview matches. One match has Abel Atami taking on Harley Lewis. Both men are looking to build momentum going into Road to Redemption, but who will come out on top? The other preview match has Hunnid Honcho taking on Harper Lee. Hunnid Honcho will no doubt be the fan favorite of the Scramble, but he is taking on his toughest challenge to date in a former World Champion.
Deadprez: Finally, in our main event, it might be a whole bunch of trouble for the duo of Adam Lucas and the National Elite Champion Donovan Duke. One week before they have to enter the Elimination Chamber at Numbers 1 and 2, they have to take on the other four members of the Elimination Chamber in a FOUR ON TWO HANDICAP MATCH! Duke and Lucas take on Jon Kelton, Xander Payne, Ryan Joseph Wilson, AND the Answers World Champion Impact. How are Duke and Lucas gonna survive this? We’ll find out later tonight, but right now, let’s take it to the ring and the lovely Gina Romano.
(‘Manners’ by BAND-MAID begins to blast throughout the speakers, as everyone in attendance erupts in cheers, waiting for the appearance of the ‘Guardian Angel.’ After a few moments, Alex Myers finally makes their presence known, appearing on the stage with their hood over their head. They let out a deep breath, as they begin to make their way down the rampway.)
Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen, help me introduce at this time… ‘GUARDIAN ANGEL’!!!!!! ALEX MYERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: MY GUARDIAN ANGEL!!!! :blessed:!!!!
Deadprez: You can just tell by the look on their face that Alex is not happy tonight, and rightfully so. After weeks of torment, you can just tell that they are dying to get their hands on Jack Ripley, and will finally be able to get exactly that at Road To Redemption.
Eve: If there is one thing that everyone who watches Showdown, and is a part of Showdown, has learned about Alex since the beginning of this season, it’s their will to fight, and that they will not stay down. They have developed a mentality that is unlike any other Elitists on this brand, and I think that is what makes them the most dangerous.
(Alex would make it down to ringside, as they are handed a Microphone. They would then climb up onto the apron, before entering the ring, and pacing around. They pull their hood down, fidgeting with the Microphone as ‘Manners’ would soon fade out from there. They take a moment, listening to the ovation that is being given to them before they raise the Mic up to them.)
Alex Myers: I have just been… really annoyed recently.
Alex Myers: I thought everything was going to go the way that it should have, I really did. I thought that I would be able to keep Hurricane Hawk in power, I thought I was going to be able to make sure that Impact was no longer the Answers World Championship, but in the end, it didn’t happen. Hawk is out of power now, Impact is still World Champion, and why is that? Because at No Regards just a month ago, I put trust into someone who should never be trusted, and he ended up breaking that in a heartbeat. Because of greed? Because he’s petty? Jack Ripley broke my trust and it has been nothing more than an uphill battle for me since that night.
(Alex looks down for a second, sighing in disappointment before looking back up.)
Alex Myers: Ever since that night, my mental state has not been the best for me. I have had many talks outside of the ring with my best friend ARIA, and she has tried to be there for me, but she has had other things to do across Dynasty and Voltage in her time making it to the Specialist Chamber match at Road To Redemption, which I am sure she has that in the bag. But ever since No Regards, it really has just been an uphill battle for me. I faced Adam a few weeks back, in a chance to qualify for the Elimination Chamber match… but I lost. The cAn tHeY cO-ExIsT match last week, where Jack laid me out and again, I lost. All of this has happened because I allowed a situation get the best of me, and it has always been a problem that I have had to deal with; and that is trust. I trusted Jack, Hawk trusted Jack, and in the end, that was the worst possible thing that we could have done. But at Road To Redemption, I have the opportunity to fix it.
Alex Myers: At Road To Redemption, I AM going to put this to rest, and I am going to do that both literally and figuratively when I stuff Jack Ripley right on into that coffin, and I close the lid, quite possibly on his own career to add onto that. I am going to make sure that I win in the end, and there IS going to be nothing that Jack can do—
???: Alex, Alex, Alex… you really are still caught up on all of that, aren’t you?
(Suddenly, Alex gets cut off, as they look towards the titantron, and they spot Jack Ripley on the tron. He is in the backstage area in an unknown location, sitting down in front of the camera with a cocky smirk on his face.)
Jack Ripley: You don’t get it, don’t you? I don’t care about Hurricane Hawk, and I most definitely don’t care about you. The amount of times that I have been screwed over this season has shown clear signs of someone out there in the high regards having some sort of vendetta against me, and at No Regards, I got my revenge, and how exactly did I do that? By breaking your trust, AND Hawk’s trust in the process. Did I want to win the Answers World Championship? Yeah, I did. But after going through hell and back just for nothing in return, I knew that I was going to do exactly what I had planned. YOU were in the crossfire of all of that, and because of that, I was going to do it to you as well, and why? Because I. Didn’t. Care. This match at Road To Redemption? It’s quite idiotic, don’t you think, kiddo? But actually, to you, this match should be nothing more than a blessing in disguise.
Jack Ripley: Because at Road To Redemption, I am going to save you from years and years of pain and agony, and you are going to have no choice but to thank me for all of that, do you understand that? I am going to be the one to close the lid of that coffin on top of you, and after that, I can finally put an end to this little detour that I had to take, because that is all this is; a detour. Once I beat you, I can finally move on, and I can finally focus back on the Championship that I SHOULD have won a whole while ago, and that is the Answers World Championship, do you get that, kid? That’s all you are to me, a childish detour who means absolutely nothing to me and my path to the Answers World Championship. So I really do hope that you are prepared for what is to come at Road To Redemption.
Jack Ripley: Because when it is all said and done, you will finally be set free from all the pain in this world that you talk about. You want to talk about being a Guardian Angel? Alex, consider me your own Guardian Angel, because I’m saving you from all the pain and suffering that you were too foolish and stupid to avoid in the first place. You made it this far, and I’m putting an end to all of that because you get too far.
Alex Myers: Sure, Jack. Tell yourself that. Tell yourself everything that you want to hear, because by the time that Road To Redemption does come around, do you want to know something? Everything that you have said will not be backed up, because you can’t do crap about what I am going to accomplish, how far I am going to get in my career, and pass you by in the process. You don’t got nothing on me. You’re my Guardian Angel? No, no, you got it all wrong. You’re going to find the white feather of the calling card when you are sent into that coffin, and you are going to realize that it was Alex Myers who saved you. I’ll see you there.
Jack Ripley: I’m glad you think that, I really am. Think like that all you want, because at the end of the day, Alex Myers will never stand a chance against Jack Ripley, and that is something that you are going to have to come to terms with. Remember the last time that we had to face in the middle of that ring? I beat you. I beat you once, and I will beat you again, because you are nothing, and you will always be nothing. I pity you, I pity your mental state, and I pity your delusions. Because you truly are too stupid to save yourself from utter disaster. And well, disaster is what is to come.
Jack Ripley: But, let’s show everyone here tonight in Thailand a little preview of what that disaster is, Alex. Because what you don’t seem to realize is, I have more smarts than you, and I always will have more smarts than you. And if there is one thing that you never expected, it was for this video to be made before you ever even came down to that very ring tonight. The beauty of pre-recorded messages is something that you will never, and I mean it when I say never, seem to understand.
Crowd: :lupe:
(Suddenly, the titantron would cut to black. Alex Myers looks confused, as they drop their Microphone, and look towards the rampway, looking for a fight. That is when… someone slides into the ring behind them.)
Deadprez: JACK RIPLEY! IT’S JACK RIPLEY! JACK IS IN THE RING RIGHT NOW, AND ALEX DOESN’T EVEN KNOW IT! ALEX HEARS THE BOOS, AND THEY TURN AROUND, BUT IT’S TOO LATE!!!
Gavin Kirkland: YOU’LL FLOAT TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Eve: NO! ALEX MYERS IS ABLE TO DIVE OUT OF HARM’S WAY, AND THEY FALL TO THE MAT BELOW BEFORE JACK CAN HIT THE SUPERKICK! ALEX MYERS JUST SAVED THEMSELF HERE, AND YOU CAN TELL BY THE LOOK ON JACK’S FACE THAT HIS PLAN DID NOT WORK OUT THE WAY THAT HE HAD HOPED FOR IT TO!
(Alex crawls into the corner as Jack leans against the ropes. Jack has a look of panic and annoyance on his face, while Alex is more happy that they were able to move out of the way and ruin Jack’s plan. Alex would then get up to their feet, and cracks their knuckles as Jack cracks his neck, as security starts running down the ramp and into the ring.)
Deadprez; ALEX MYERS AND JACK RIPLEY BOTH RUN TOWARDS EACH OTHER!!! BUT THEY ARE TACKLED BY SECURITY AND HELD DOWN BEFORE THEY CAN EVEN GET THEIR HANDS ON EACH OTHER! IT SEEMS THAT ALEX AND JACK ARE GOING TO HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL ROAD TO REDEMPTION, AS THE SECURITY IS NOT GOING TO ALLOW FOR THEM TO GET THEIR HANDS ON EACH OTHER!
Jack Ripley: (off-mic) I’M GOING TO PUT AN END TO YOU!!!
Alex Myers: (off-mic) YOU’RE GOING TO HAVE TO DO MORE THAN THAT TO KEEP ME DOWN AT ROAD TO REDEMPTION!!!
(The security continues to keep them separated as they pull Jack out of the ring, leaving Alex there. They walk Jack up the ramp, as Alex is soon pulled out of the drag as well to follow suit. They continue to try and break free, looking to tear each other apart, but it is no use; they are going to have to wait until Road To Redemption and the Coffin match for it to happen. They are both sent to the backstage area from there, as the camera would soon fade out.)
(A commercial is shown for Alex Myers vs. Jack Ripley in a coffin match at Road To Redemption!)
Gina Romano: Ladies and Gentlemen, the following contest is a Specialists Elimination Chamber Preview with a twenty-minute time limit, and is scheduled FOR!
Crowd: ONE FALL!!
( ‘The Lazy Song’ by Bruno Mars plays over the sound system of Bangkok Arena as Mary is making her way to the ring under the cheers of the crowd. )
Gina Romano: INTRODUCING FIRST! From St-Louis, Missouri! Weighing in at 115 pounds! She is Most Wanted: MARY S. ATLAAAAAAAAAASS!!!!!!
Deadprez: This is the first match since November 5th on Showdown for Mary who then faced Harper Lee in a valiant but losing effort
Gavin Kirkland: Tonight, Atlas will be looking to get a win ahead of the Specialist Championship Elimination Chamber match!
Eve: A win tonight would give her a bit of momentum heading towards Road to Redemption but she isn’t going against an easy opponent.
( ‘Mr. Brightshade’ by The Killers follows on the speakers, the fans also cheer for the woman making her way toward the ring whose focus is on her opponent tonight. She doesn’t look too happy. )
Gina Romano: ANNND HER OPPONENT! From Detroit, Michigan! Weighing in at 117 pounds! She is The Motor City Machine Gun! LEEEEEEEEXIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: Here is a woman who probably’s been in a bad mood all week and looked forward to tonight’s match!
Gavin Kirkland: For those who missed it, Lexi lost last week against Abel Atami in part due to being distracted by Mary who came to try to get Antonne not to interfere in the match.
Eve: The attempt caused Lexi to be distracted when she was a pinfall away from victory. Tonight she will look to get Mary to pay for sure, a win would be good for her ahead of Road to Redemption!
( Ding! Ding! Ding! )
Deadprez: AND HERE WE GO! This match is officially underway! Both ladies meet at the center of the ring and shake hands in good sportsmanship! They circle one another a few rounds, Lexi skips on her feet while Mary sidesteps but then both engage in a clinch!
Gavin Kirkland: Both competitors are on an equal level in terms of strength they aren’t budging but suddenly Mary goes for a wrist lock which is reversed almost instantly by one coming from Lexi who ends up forcing Atlas into a corner. The official causes a break, Lexi backs off slowly her hands to her side and Mary meets up with her.
Eve: Another clinch, both of them straining but Lexi this time moves with a headlock but Mary pushes her to the ropes. Lexi crosses the ring, Mary hits the deck as Lexi hops over her followed by a Japanese arm drag from Mary taking Lexi down but the Detroit native quickly moves back up and barely evades a clothesline from Mary! Atlas herself ducks a leg sweep and tries for a spin kick that Lexi moves away from!
Deadprez: Both quickly end up back on their feet and in a fighting stance under the cheers of the crowd who enjoys this so far. The question is who’s going to gain the upper hand and later who will win this match? Your guess is as good as mine folks!
Gavin Kirkland: Both of them are very agile, nimble and quick on their feet this has shown thus far in this match as Lexi is moving in for a clothesline but Mary ducks the arm AND GOES FOR A CRUCIFIX PINFALL ATTEMPT!
OOOOONNNNNEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TTTTTTTWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Lexi kicks out AND SHE QUICKLY MOVES TO ROLL MARY UP FOR A COVER OF HER OWN!!
OOOOONNNNNEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TTTTTTTWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: And Mary kicks out as well! Both ladies move to their feet, Atlas with an attempt at a lariat but Lexi steps aside trying for one of her own reversed into a wristlock to the back by Mary. Quick elbow to the face by Lexi while Mary holds on but finally lets go when she is backed into a corner by her opponent.
Gavin Kirkland: Lexi quickly turns around, throwing fists and elbow strikes at Mary who herself quickly reverses turning Lexi into the corner for some strikes of her own! Quick back-and-forth action between these two ladies you can’t blink or risk missing some of the action!
Eve: Snapmare from Mary sending Lexi closer to the center of the ring and Lexi right back sends Mary down with a Japanese arm drag! Lexi tries to chain some offense up with an attempt at a hurricanrana but Mary lands on her feet and quickly moves in on Lexi with a clothesline that connects! Lexi back vertical but taken back down with yet another clothesline followed by a hasty elbow from Mary CONVERTED INTO AN AN ARMBAR BY LEXI BUT MARY QUICKLY GRABS HOLD OF THE ROPES NEARBY SAVING HERSELF!
Deadprez: The action is picking up here folks!
Deadprez: Quick open-palm smacks from Mary who is backing Lexi into a corner BEFORE SWINGING HER TO THE CENTER OF THE RING WITH A MONKEY FLIP! Lexi gets up BUT MARY TAKES HER DOWN ONCE MORE WITH A SUNSET FLIP POWERBOMB!! Lexi rolls to the outside of the ring, strategic retreat to try and recover from this as she’s holding her back and stands on a knee. Mary looks on and quickly runs to the ropes.
Gavin Kirkland: A SUICIDE DIVE TURNED INTO A TORNADO DDT TAKES LEXI DOWN FOR GOOD!! The crowd loves this cheering on Mary for her daring move and she’s going back inside the ring. She’s waiting for Lexi to get up and try for Tope Con Hilo! She dives BUT LEXI CAUGHT HER IN A SUPLEX POSITION AND GERMANS MARY AGAINST THE SECURITY RAILING! Smart move from Lexi! Great counter following the DDT!
Eve: Lexi moves towards the ring, Mary follows groggily soon after they both move in, stopping the referee from counting them out. Lexi grabs at Mary, whipping her into the ropes she tries for a clothesline but MARY STRIKES BACK WITH A REBOUND LARIAT!
Deadprez: Lexi holds her head with a hand but is still quickly getting back to her feet and Mary grabs her free arm to whip her against a corner FOLLOWING WITH AN ENZUIGIRI!! Mary doesn’t give any respite to Lexi, sending her to the ropes trying for a roundhouse kick but Lexi goes under it. She tries to turn and strike at Mary BUT ATLAS NAILS HER DOWN WITH A PELE KICK!
Gavin Kirkland: Mary moves Lexi to her feet, forcing a wrist lock FOLLOWED by A DISCUS ELBOW! DOWN GOES LEXI as Mary then moves things into a headlock keeping Lexi grounded. Mary is on the offensive at the moment, and Lexi is trying to get out of the headlock as both of them are getting back to their feet. Lexi attempts to free herself through the use of elbows to the stomach.
Eve: Lexi manages to free herself while Mary looks stunned, she dashes to the ropes looking to turn things around BUT MARY SLAMS HER DOWN WITH AN EXPLODER SUPLEX! SHE CAUGHT LEXI BY SURPRISE NO WAY SHE EXPECTED THIS! Mary back on the offensive as she waits for her opponent to get up as she then goes to a corner hoping AND THEN TAKING LEXI DOWN WITH A TRIANGLE DROPKICK!
Deadprez: Right on the button by Atlas who moves back on Lexi grabbing her by an arm to force her up, turning it into a wrist lock AND THEN A RIPCORD KNEE STRIKE! The impact looks like it could concuss the one on the receiving end! Atlas drops an elbow drop on Lexi before setting her up for an Inverted Alabama slam AND IT CONNECTS!
Gavin Kirkland: Lexi is trying her best to get up by her own power and fight through the pain of the move she just manages to get to her feet AND MARY THROWS HER UPSIDE DOWN WITH A BRIDGING DRAGON SUPLEX!
OOOOONNNNNEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TTTTTTTWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
Eve: Lexi kicks out! And Mary doesn’t let go as she quickly gets her opponent to her feet and whips her to a corner and throws a few European uppercuts to Lexi keeping her docile in the corner to a point where she ends up sitting in the corner. Mary quickly goes to the opposite corner and charges at Lexi SMASHING HER IN THE CORNER WITH A CANNONBALL!
Deadprez: Mary rolls to her feet, hoisting Lexi to the top of the corner and she follows her! She stands on the corner with her what will she do? Lexi strikes at Mary’s ribs trying to stop her but Atlas throws a headbutt! SHE GOES FOR A SUPER FRANKENSTEINEEEEEEEEEERRRRRR!!! She both ladies are writhing in pain and Mary goes to her feet the fastest. Moving behind Lexi SHE GOES FOR A GERMAN SUPLEX!
Gavin Kirkland: Lexi lands atop of her neck and looks folded like an accordeon right now! Mary moves to help her up, a few punches and elbows to the face and body before taking Lexi FOR A SNAP SINGLE UNDERHOOK FRONT FACELOCK DROP! DOWN GOES LEXI and yet she tries to get up! Lexi is showing how much of a warrior she is but gets taken down by slingblade!
Eve: And get Lexi still tries to get up! She has a pained expression on her face BEFORE GETTING A BOOT TO THE FACE IN THE FORM OF A ROUNDHOUSE KICK!! MARY WITH A COVER!
OOOOONNNNNEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TTTTTTTWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
Eve: Lexi kicks out one more!!!
Deadprez: Lexi is showing her heart and resiliency in this part of the match she who’s been on the receiving end of Mary’s offensive capabilities. She currently is on her hands and keeps trying to get her bearings BUT GETS BICYCLE KICKED AND BROUGHT DOWN TO THE GROUND!
Gavin Kirkland: Mary grabs Lexi and sends her to the ropes, she goes for a spinning heel kick but Lexi ducks under it and goes to the ropes again, bouncing against them she charges at Mary TAKING HER DOWN WITH A RUNNING HIGH KNEE! That took Mary by surprise as she gets knocked down, she goes to her knees and Lexi is quickly moving behind her LIFTING HER UP WITH A GERMAN SUPLEX WITH A BRIDGING PIN COMBINAISON!!!
OOOOONNNNNEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TTTTTTTWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: Atlas with the shoulder up keeps this match going!
Gavin Kirkland: Lexi goes for a series of elbow strikes before whipping Mary to the ropes and on the rebound, Atlas ends up on her back with Lexi’s backspin kick followed by a TORNADO DDT!!! Lexi moves Lexi to her feet and kicks her midsection followed by a quick snap suplex Mary is looking to create separation between herself and her opponent by rolling out of the ring.
Eve: Smart play by the Most Wanted BUT SHE GETS BOMBED BY LEXI WHO LANDED ATOP OF HER WITH A SUICIDE DIVE!! She mirrored the earlier actions of Mary who struck her in a similar fashion when she herself moves outside of the ring. Lexi interacts with the crowd a bit who reacts favorably before moving behind Mary AND SLAM HER FACE TO THE OUTSIDE FLOOR MAT WITH A RUNNING BULLDOG!! Mary is holding her face, Lexi seems to be letting a bit of frustration out following the way her match ended last week.
Deadprez: Perhaps so, but Mary did apologize for what she qualified as an incident. Maybe after this match they can still remain friends, we’ll have to see but right now business is at hand and this match must continue. Lexi moves to the apron, the official has begun his count notifying them both to get inside the ring BUT LEXI THROWS HERSELF ON LEXI WITH A CROSSBODY FROM THE APRON!
Deadprez: Mary drops to the floor but Lexi moves her up and sends her against the ring apron, throwing a few elbows to the face of Atlas before pushing her inside the ring and stopping the official from counting. Lexi goes to the second rope looking down on Mary, sizing her up, and goes for a leg drop that lands on the chest of her opponent! Cover by Lexi!
OOOOONNNNNEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TTTTTTTWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: Mary kicks out! Lexi looks at the official who confirms the two counts but makes no fuss about it.
Gavin Kirkland: Getting Mary up she punches her a few times before throwing her against the ropes and goes to the opposite ones as well! Mary actually tries to strike back with a clothesline but Lexi ducks low and bounces to the ropes BEFORE POUNCING ON MARY WITH A LOU THESZ PRESS AND THROW SEVERAL PALM STRIKES AT ATLAS UNDER THE CHEERS OF THE CROWD!
Eve: She picks up Mary and puts her down with a scoop slam before moving to the ropes and SPRINGBOARD MOONSAULT HERSELF UPON MARY! PERFECTLY EXECUTED as she quickly gets up and goes on the apron having stepped through the ropes. She holds onto the top ropes what does Lexi have in store now? She’s waiting for Mar to get up BEFORE LAUNCHING HERSELF IN THE AIR AND NAIL MARY WITH A FOREARM SMASH!! DOWN GOES MARY who backs herself into a corner.
Deadprez: Lexi closes in on her opponent forcing her up before herself hopping on the second ropes and beginning to pound against Mary’s head!
Crowd: ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE! SIX! SEVEN! EIGHT! NINE! … … TEN!!!!
Deadprez: Lexi kissed her knuckles just before the last strike as she hops away from Mary who walks a bit like a zombie before falling down near the center of the ring! Lexi looks quite pleased with herself but she can’t let her foot off the gas pedal she has to continue if she wants a shot at victory ahead of Road to Redemption!
Gavin Kirkland: She waits for Mary who is slow to get up at this point, when the right moment comes she charges into a running knee that flips Mary over! Atlas seems a bit faster into getting up somehow BUT SHE GOES DOWN AGAIN WITH A HURRICANRANA FROM LEXI!! She’s getting up to her feet, crouched behind Mary again waiting BEFORE GOING FOR THE BACKSTABBER!! AND SHE QUICKLY FOLLOWS UP WITH A CROSSFACE JUST AS MARY WAS TURNING ON HER BELLY!!
Eve: MARY IS FLAILING HER ARMS AROUND TRYING TO FIND A WAY TO BREAK THE HOLD BUT LEXI ISN’T LETTING GO! ATLAS IS POWERING HER WAY TO THE ROPES JUST ABOUT TO GRAB HOLD OF ONE BUT LEXI BRINGS HER BACK TO THE CENTER OF THE RING!! ATLAS IS SCREAMING WHILE LEXI IS PULLING AS HARD AS SHE CAN…
Deadprez: BUT LOOK AT MARY SHE’S GETTING ON HER HANDS AND KNEES! SHE’S GETTING UP AND LEXI TRIES TO HOLD ON WITH HER WEIGHT ON MARY’S BACK BUT ATLAS THEN BACKPEDALS INTO A CORNER FORCING LEXI TO LET GO! What strength by the St-Louis born woman this was incredible! Oh look! It appears as though both butted heads in the manoeuver!
Gavin Kirkland: Lexi remains in the corner looking a bit stunned as Mary holds the back of her head BUT LEXITHROWS A SUPERKICK SQUARE ON MARY’S JAW!! LIGHTS OUT FOR ATLAS!!! ONE OF LEXI’S SIGNATURE MOVES ANS SHE QUICKLY GOES TO THE ROPES… HEART STOPPER!!!!!! THE ELEVATED MOONSAULT FROM THE TOP ROPES!! MARY’S IN TROUBLE NOW AS SHE THEN GETS PICKED UP BY LEXI WHO GOES FOR THE BLOODSHOT!! THE DEATH VALLEY DRIVER JUST SPIKES ATLAS ON TOP OF HER HEAD!!! THAT’S THREE OFLEXI’S SIGNATURE MOVES IN A ROW!! THAT’S GOT TO BE It AS SHE GOES FOR A COVER!!
OOOOONNNNNEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TTTTTHHHHHRRRRREEEE-
Deadprez: HOW DID MARY KICK OUT OF THAT THIRD SIGNATURE MOVE???? Lexi barely believes it as she looks at the official she thought she had that match in the bag but the referee calls a two! Lexi gets up to her feet, arguing a little with the referee BUT GETS SPUN AROUND AND DROPPED WITH CUTTER CULTURE!!
Gavin Kirkland: MARY’S RKO FROM OUT OF NOWHERE AND QUICKLY SHE MOVES LEXI TO A CORNER. She goes to the opposite one though a bit groggily, she shakes her head focusing and charges forward. NINE MILES!! THE HELLUVA KICK ON LEXI’S FACE AND SHE QUICKLY GRABS LEXI’S HEAD … MOST WANTED DDT!!!!
Eve: HOLY COW SHE JUST CHAINED UP THREE OF HER OWN SIGNATURE MOVES ON LEXI!! COVER!!!!!

TTTTTHHHHHRRRRREEEE-
Deadprez: BY WHAT MIRACLE LEXI MANAGED TO KICK OUT OF THOSE THREE?? Both of them are on the ground looking spent but they have to keep on fighting! The official starts to count them but they start to both stirr about.
Gavin Kirkland: Both girls now exchanging blows under the cheers of the crowd and Mary quickly shifts trying to go for a clothesline but Lexi ducks it.

( DING! DING!! DING!!! )
( ‘Mr. Brightshade’ by The Killers follows on the speakers as Lexi gets her lead arm raised by the official to confirm her victory after she moved away from Mary. )
Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen the winner of this match: LEXIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: An incredible performance by both ladies tonight, quick-paced and hard-hitting action on both sides but there can be one winner and tonight Lexi leaves Vietnam with the win.
Deadprez: Mary offered a great opposition tonight through the match and she came very close to win but Lexi emerged victorious.
Eve: Mary shouldn’t feel bad about this loss, she did wonderfully and now both ladies can focus on the Specialist Scrambles match at Road to Redemption! Good luck to them both and congratulations to Lexi tonight!
( The final shot is of Lexi making her way up the ramp looking at Mary with a satisfied smile on her face before the camera transitions to the Road to Redemption 2021 Rewind.)
( The camera fades to the ring, where Bella Braxton is seen holding a microphone. )
Bella Braxton: Ladies And Gentlemen! The following contest is scheduled for…
Crowd: ONE FALL!!!!
Bella Braxton: AND IT IS FOR THE OWNERSHIP OF THE 24/7 CONTRAAAAACT!!
(The lights go out in the arena and as the camera travels up the entrance as the sound of cards shuffling echoes throughout the arena. As the camera makes its way up the ramp, a repeated pattern of card suits lights the way. When they reach the top of the ramp, the fans finally hear a voice.)
(THE HOUSE ALWAYS WINS!)
(Then ‘The Outsiders’ by Eric Church starts to play as numerous people dressed in standard casino card dealer’s outfits and wearing cowboy hats make their way to the stage riding motorcycles. When the song reaches the chorus, they all rev their engines as Donovan Duke makes his way to the stage riding his own custom Harley-Davidson motorcycle wearing a leather jacket and his lucky cowboy hat. He revs his own engine trying to get the crowd motivated.)
Bella Braxton: INTRODUCING FIRST! Making his way to the ring. From Stillwater, Oklahoma. Weighing 212 pounds. He is “THE OKLAHOMA GENTLEMAN” AND THE 24/7 CONTRACT HOLDER; DONOVAN DUKE!
(Donovan rides his motorcycle down the ramp and does a few laps around the ring, slapping hands with the fans at ringside before returning to the bottom of the ramp. After he gets off the motorcycle, he pulls a gun out of his jacket pocket and points it to the sky. He fires it and fireworks are fired from the gun.)
(Seconds later, dollar bills start falling from the sky. There aren’t just one-dollar bill, there are many other dollar amounts falling from the sky. Donovan looks at the camera and gives a wink.)
Donovan Duke: (Off-Mic) I’m the real deal. This isn’t that cheap shit Ronan had created. You won’t see him doing something like this. Worth every penny.
(As the money continues falling, Donovan takes off the jacket and reveals a black and blood red singlet for the event as he enters the ring and motions to the crowd.)
James Peters: Now THAT… Is what I call an entrance! This is mighty surprising coming from the Gentlemen but obviously, he’s been going all out for this special occasion!
Rich Russillo: Donovan has a chance tonight to continue to roll with the 24/7 Championship in his possession tonight he who so far has not made good on the possibilities that come with that privilege. The last one who waited too long ended up losing the contract. We all remember Jon Kelton’s defeat against Justin Windgate who soon after won the Interwire Championship.
Persephone: We remember he lost it to Ronan after too. Speaking of which!
( The lights of the arena all going to focus on the ramp with heavy spots enlightening it along with the stage and the jumbotron. We hear sirens as a line of 14 police motorbikes are driving into view from the right side of the entrance and drive to part themselves on each side of the ramp the whole length of it between the ring and the stage area. Shortly after the motorcade is stopped an abyssal black Cadillac SUV drives up the ramp and stops just before the line of a police escort. We see Ronan’s Dogs of War hanging off the side of the SUV as it drives slowly while ‘Mo Money’ by Ben McLusky begins playing through the sound system of Lucas Oil Stadium. The Dogs of War gets off the vehicle and one of them opens a side door through which emerges Ronan. The former Interwire Champion moves forth and is followed two steps behind by his crew. )
Bella Braxton: AAAAAAAAAND HIS OPPONENT!! From Cape Town, South Africa but living it large in Palm Springs, Florida! Weighing in at 285 pounds! He Is The Million Dollar Megastar: RONAAAAAAAAAAAAN MA-LO-SIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!
( We see Ronan look down at the dollar bills that are everywhere from Duke’s entrance and pick one up, he observes it before scoffing and shredding the currently in three and discards it as if it was trash! )
Persephone: He just shredded a high-value banknote like it meant nothing that bald fuck!!
James Peters: I don’t think Ronan cares about Duke’s money when he can get the 24/7 contract which is invaluable should he win the match! This is a high-stakes battle that is about to take place and the two of them heading to this match have shown they are ready to keep the thing but also do what they must to get it!
Rich Russillo: It’s been interesting to follow the two of them interact with each other and it all comes to a boiling point tonight as the two are battling for the right to own the 24/7 contract! Will Donovan keep it? Or will Ronan become its the new owner? These two men will not go easy on each other in order to get their hands on it!
Persephone: ALRIGHT REF! SAY THE THING!
Referee: RING THE BELL!!!
( DING! DING! DING! )
James Peters: And Here We GO!! This match is officially underway!! Both men are circling each other in the center of the ring measuring and poised for a strike! Who will engage first! Ronan is motioning a Hold On sign with a hand to Donovan as he then turns to face the official and takes out a big fat wad of clipped bills and presents it to the official.
Ronan Malosi: (Off-Mic) If you do things my way, Imma make you a rich man!
Referee: (Off-Mic) I don’t want your stinking money, Ronan! Do your job and FIGHT!
Ronan Malosi: (Off-Mic) What? Do you refuse the easiest payday of your miserable entry-level job’s life? Pff! Screw you then.
Rich Russillo: Finally this match can start pro-
Persephone: Ah you’ve got to be fucking kidding me!!
Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
James Peters: Ronan Malosi ducks a clinch attempt by Donovan and rolls out of the ring! The fans are booing as Ronan points to the side of his head with a finger.
Ronan Malosi: You don’t get to decide when we start this match! I DO! Because unlike you I’m filthy RICH!
Persephone: Makes you wonder if he really wants the 24/7 Contract doesn’t it?
James Peters: Ronan is messing around outside the ring taunting the crowd and actually ignoring his opponent for the time being! Duke ends up sliding out of the ring trying to get to Malosi but Ronan’s Dogs of War bars his way! The pair stands stall between Duke and their boss under the boos of the crowd! Duke is annoyed as Malosi is laughing while the official begins to count them both!
ONE!

Rich Russillo: Donovan goes back in the ring first! Looking down to Ronan who doesn’t seem in a rush!

James Peters: And Ronan at the last possible second dashes inside the ring sliding under the bottom rope! The action can now resume!
Persephone: Or should we say begin! They didn’t even touch each other yet!
Rich Russillo: Donovan goes for Clinch! Ronan shows the power of a man who is much taller than his opponent roughing him around with a harsh push forcing Duke to fall back but he rolls with agility and ends with a knee down.
Rich Russillo: Ronan rolls his eyes and dashes towards Donovan who ducks and throws Ronan backward into a German Suplex! Ronan gets up, he gets greeted by a Belly to Belly Suplex! Then a Japanese arm drag! And a good old clothesline! Donovan is on a roll now as he throws Ronan into the ropes but Malosi tackles him down with a shoulder block sending Duke to the ground hard.
James Peters: Ronan dashes forward and into a power slam as Duke uses his opponent’s momentum against him! DOWN GOES HAPPY MALOSI! Duke tries to go for a suplex but gets an elbow to the face for his efforts! He goes down to a knee! Malosi picks him up and shoves him into a corner followed by a series of body strikes and a few well-placed kicks before Ronan barks at the crowd ordering them to shut up which of course they respond to with a chorus of boos. Ronan drives a knee to the midsection of the 24/7 contract holder who drops to his knees again. Ronan goes to pick him up once more BUTt Duke takes him down!! It doesn’t last as Ronan shoves him off.
Rich Russillo: Duke to the ropes, Ronan dashes forth and lands outside the ring as Duke lowers the ropes! Smart move by the Duke as Ronan lands to his feet and against the railing! Malosi quickly runs back in ONLY to get dropkicked by Donovan! The move is sending Ronan back out of the ring! Duke to his feet now looking at the crowd and then behind him before dashing into the ropes bouncing towards Ronan and LEAP INTO A SUICIDE DIVE FROM INSIDE THE RING AND LANDING STRAIGHT OVER RONAN!! Duke is in control now as he gets quickly vertical.
James Peters: Donovan backs off a little then runs in! Running hurricanrana on Malosi who just barely got up to his feet! Ronan is getting slowly up, leaning against the barricade, Duke takes a few long steps back getting ready to dash forward! He is measuring his opponent! Off he goes charging in! SIDEWALK SLAM! RONAN STOPPED DONOVAN SHORT WITH THAT MOVE! DOWN GOES DUKE! What a counter by Ronan Malosi! The official is starting to make the count force the two back in!
ONE!

Rich Russillo: Ronan Malosi rolls Donovan inside the ring like a bag of trash. He follows after him, he lifts Duke to his feet and throws a series of elbows to the shoulder of Duke trying to soften him up! He then grabs hold of Duke’s head with both hands! He is trying to twist cap Donovan’s head right off! Duke is in trouble but not giving up resisting Ronan’s attack with his hands. Duke gets up, throws some punches to the gut free himself from Malosi then whips Ronan to the nearest corner! Ronan slides out of the ring, runs to the other side of the ring post, rushes back in going for a clot-NO! DUKE CAUGHT HIM WITH A SUPERKICK! COVER BY DONOVAN!!
ONNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
TTTTTTTTTTTTWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Rich Russillo: Ronan Kicks OUT!
James Peters: Close but Donovan will need to do more if he wants to put the taller Ronan away! Donovan gets Malosi up, whipping him into a corner! Ronan turns to face Donovan who hops on him! MONKEY FLIP! RONAN GOES FLYING AND LANDS ON HIS BACK! Ronan gets back up to his feet, he tries to reach Donovan! Ronan lunges AND DUKE LIFTS HIM OVER HIS SHOULDERS!! HOLY COW HE IS MILITARY PRESSING RONAN OVER HIS HEAD!! THAT’S 285 POUNDS AND EVEN MALOSI HIMSELF DOESN’T BELIEVE IT!! The crows love it as then Donovan goes for a quick but efficient running POWERSLAM!! COVER!!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTTWWWWWOOOO!!!!!
Rich Russillo: Ronan lifts the shoulder up! This was quite the feat of strength from Donovan! The contract holder grabs at Ronan, pulls him up, and sends him into the ropes! He goes for a discus clothesline but Ronan ducks! He turns around AND SENDS A BIG BOOT TO DONOVAN! DOWN HE GOES! He gets up rather quickly but is slammed back down with a CLOTHESLINE followed by a lazy cover by Ronan Malosi!
ONNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
Persephone: Lame ass bum! Too rich to properly hook the leg up?
James Peters: Donovan easily moved out of that pinning predicament! Ronan can’t possibly win this match if he doesn’t take it as seriously as he possibly can. Donovan is not going to give him the opportunity to profit through laziness or arrogance! Ronan is getting a bit annoyed at this point as he picks up Donovan and whips him into the ropes. Duke bounces chest first against the hard ropes he back steps AND GETS CLOCKED BY RONAN WITH A FOREARM TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD!!
Ronan Malosi: (Off-Mic) And That’s Why I’m The BEST!!!
Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Rich Russillo: While the crowd jeers the Dogs of War are cheering on their boss who is picking up Donovan! He goes for a punch but it’s blocked by Duke who goes on the offensive with a series of quick strikes! He turns, goes to the ropes and bounces toward Ronan, and dives forward for a hard shoulder tackle which is sending Ronan backward! But! He bounces on the second rope moving quickly toward Duke with a FOREARM SMASH!
James Peters: Donovan is getting up, looking in pain through, Ronan twists an arm applying a bit more before he whips Duke harshly into a corner! Donovan falls down, Ronan is gloating!
Ronan Malosi: (Off-Mic) The 24-7 Contract WILL Be Mine!
Rich Russillo: Ronan lifts up Duke and sizes him up before throwing in a few stiff elbows to the jaw of Donovan who’s against a corner! LOOK OUT! DONOVAN JUST GRABBED ONTO RONANS’ ARM AND MOVED OVER THE TOP ROPE! TARENTULA ARM LOCK!! RONAN IS IN TROUBLE AND LOOKING IN PAIN AS DUKE GOT HIS ENTIRE WEIGHT ON THE ARM OF MALOSI!

He towers over Donovan, moves his head in a wise grip he is trying to twist cap it! Donovan gets up, overhead fist to the back of Duke who is down on a knee now! Ronan throws in a few more but then Donovan fights back with a series of body shots before getting whipped into the ropes. Ronan is trying for a big boot but Donovan ducks low!

IT LANDS PERFECTLY BUT IT SEEMS TO HAVE HURT DUKE A LITTLE! He powers through the pain as he goes to a corner, climbing and looking down on his opponent!

TTTTTTTTTTTTWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Rich Russillo: AND THE ONE MOST HATED KICKS OUT ONCE MORE! This has so far been quite the competitive back and forth match between these two! Who will leave tonight with the 24/7 Contract? Your guess is as good as mine!
James Peters: Donovan enjoys the cheers of the crowd for a short moment clearly they are rooting for him to retain the contract that allows him to cash in on a Championship at any moment! He waits for Ronan to get to his knees before grabbing his head BUT RONAN THROWS IN A THROAT PUNCH! SUDDEN AND VICIOUSLY1 Duke grabs at his throat this allows for Ronan to go for a snap suplex taking Duke down! He then prompts a dazed Duke to his feet and shoves him outside of the ring before arguing with the official!
Persephone: Hey look outside!
Rich Russillo: Ronan’s Dogs of War are doing a number on Donovan! Assaulting him with kicks and punches that’s unfair! A clear advantage for Ronan is they need to get banned from the ring dammit! They drive Donovan into the ground with a dual clothesline and a shoulder block before shoving Duke inside the ring! Ronan ends up ignoring the official and throws himself at Duke for a cover!

Ronan goes to the ropes, raising a leg for a running high knee strike BUT DONOVAN COUNTERS IT WITH A POWERBOMB
REVERSAAAAAAL!!!!! MY GOD THAT STRENGHT BY DUKE!! But it comes with a price as he is holding his lower back after the move!
Persephone: Go For The Pin You IDIOT!!!!
Rich Russillo: I’m sure he wants to but seems like his back is playing tricks on him. This could cost him later!
James Peters: Donovan is waiting for Ronan to get up, this is buying him some time as well to rest his back a little. He’s is going for a hurricanrana BUT RONAN HOLDS HIM WITH BOTH HANDS! DONOVAN IS IN A POWERBOMB POSITION! MALOSI RUNS TOWARDS A CORNER! BUCKLE BOOOOOOOOMB!!! With such force by Ronan that Duke is now facing first on the mat! Malosi with much arrogance flips Donovan over and puts a boot on his chest! THE ANKLE LOCK! THE ANKLE LOCK IS IN!!

Donovan is inside the ring and the official is counting Malosi!

DUKE ROLLED TO THE SIDE AND GRABS AT MALOSI’S LEG! THE ANKLE LOCK! HE GOT THE ANKLE LOCK AND THIS TIME HE IS IN THE CENTER OF THE RING!! RONAN ISN’T ABLE TO KICK HIM AWAY THIS TIME AND HE IS IN A WORLD OF PAIN!! HE TRIES TO REACH THE ROPES BUT DUKE DROPS TO THE FLOOR PUTTING ALL HIS WEIGHT INTO THE MOVE! MALOSI SCREAMING! INCHING CLOSER TO THE ROPES WILL HE TAP BEFORE HE REACHES THEM? NO! HE GRABS ONTO THE BOTTOM ROPE! HE LOOKED SO CLOSE TO TAPPING OUT!!!
James Peters: Donovan let’s go of Ronan reluctantly but goes for an elbow drop on Malosi’s back square on the spine! He then follows with a rear-naked choke!!! He still tries to force Malosi to submit but Ronan manages to get Donovan’s shoulders to the ground having rolled over. THAT’S A COVER!!
ONNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
James Peters: Donovan kicks out and breaks the hold! This just saved Ronan’s leg! Both men gets up, Ronan with a thumb to the eyes! The official warns him but Ronan doesn’t give a damn! This is on the limit of legality and Ronan knows it! Malosi whips Duke through the ropes the man lands hard on the floor outside of the ring. Malosi tests his leg, it’s not too bad looking before he moves to the apron to the outside. HE DIVES TO DONOVAN! THE DOUBLE AX HANDLE TAKES DOWN THE CONTRACT HOLDER!
Rich Russillo: Ronan is in command at this point of the match, what will he do next? The official warns that he will count them both if they don’t get in-MALOSI GOES FOR A CHOKESLAM SWITCHING TO A BACK BREAKEEEEEER!! What a move by Ronan he wants to break Duke’s back!
James Peters: Well, Donovan did try to weakened his leg after all.

THAT CAME OUT OF NOWHERE AND IT BRINGS RONAN DOWN AND ON HIS BACK! Holding his face this must be hurting!
James Peters: Duke has an opportunity now as he picks Ronan up before taking him for a ride and a perfectly executed dragon suplex on the hard ring floor! He quickly gets up, nurses his back a little bit before DOING A SUMMERSAULT LEG DROP! LANDING SQUARE ON RONAN! The official has enough! He begins to count!
ONE!
TWO!!
THREE!!!
James Peters: Duke waits for a second before getting Malosi back vertical and throws in a handspring elbow that connects! He then SLAMS Ronan down with a powerslam again a display of force by the smaller Duke before he moves inside the ring to break the count. He quickly moves out, standing on the apron he’s calling for a 450 splash will he be able to do it from the apron as Ronan is getting up? He jumps! RONAN CAUGHT HIM AND SLAMMED HIM DOWN INTO A POWERBOMB ON THE APRON! DUKE’S ARCHING HIS BACK IN BACK WRITING AND SQUIRMING AS HE ROLLS INSIDE THE RING!

Malosi is wincing in pain but he quickly charges forth and RAMS DUKE STIFFLY AGAINST THE BARRICADE BEHIND HIM! Donovan is arching his back holding it in pain as Ronan is bragging about his dominance in the match! Ronan grabs hold of Donovan’s hair pulling him and maneuvering he shoves him against our announce table.
Persephone: Ah fuck no not our table! This happens EVERY DAMN TIME!!
Rich Russillo: Donovan is leaning against our table as Ronan is sizing him up! He runs! DONOVAN DUCKS LOW AND FLIPS RONAN ATOP OUR TABLE!! Donovan quickly turns and begins to throw fists of fury at Malosi’s face he is unwinding something fierce this is pleasing the sold-out crowd!!

Persephone: Awww look at Ronan! Poor big tall bastard again on the losing end! There’s SOME things money can buy! A win? Hehe!
( We see Duke celebrate under the deafening cheers of the capacity crowd here in Indianapolis while Ronan is on his knees outside of the ring and is looking up to Donovan in frustration to have failed to his opponent. His Dogs of war are there for moral support but he painfully gets up shrugging them off and walking ahead of them as he makes his way towards the back. )
Rich Russillo: We can say what we want about the one who claims to be none more hated but he threw at Donovan the kind of opposition that will earn him other opportunities like this one in the future and perhaps sooner than he might think! But for now, time to lick his wounds as we go on with the show!
(It cuts to a commercial break)
(We cut back to the ringside area, where Heidi Huxley is in the center of the ring which microphone readied. With her are six podiums, each of a different color.)
Deadprez: Heidi Huxley joining us… we believe she is going to host a debate between the six participants in the National Elite Number One Contendership match.
Gavin Kirkland: What’s she doing out here, where is the beautiful and delectable Kennedy Street
Eve: Probably doing her nails
Gavin Kirkland: Oooo, Green eyed Monster coming out there Eve?
Eve: Nope, and it’s probably the truth.
(Heidi starts to speak, a smattering of boos not putting her off.)
Heidi Huxley: Ladies and Gentlemen, may I please introduce the competitors in the Scramble Match this weekend at Road to Redemption. First of all… my good friend… VEENA ADAMS!!!
(Veena makes her way through the curtain and down to the ring, as Heidi continues)
Heidi Huxley: ABEL ATAMI!!!
(Abel comes through as Veena is halfway down the ramp, the boos there but nowhere near the level of Veena Adams.)
Heidi Huxley: HARPER LEE!!!
(Harper comes through the curtain being well, Harper, confidence oozing from her as she walks down the ramp, not caring for the fans reaction one bit.)
Heidi Huxley: HARLEY LEWIS!!!
(EAW’s don walks down the ramp, a look a pure determination on his face, knowing that this is his opportunity to make good on his promises)
Heidi Huxley: Holly Arrow…
(There is nowhere near the level of enthusiasm from Heidi as Holly steps through the curtain, but the fans make up for that by cheering from the rafters, a reaction that makes Holly smile.)
Heidi Huxley: And finally, HUNNID HONCHO!!!
(Hunnid walks through the curtain and puts on his best rapper pose, boos ringing down on him but he doesn’t care as he makes his way down the ramp.)
Deadprez: There you are, six people with destiny in their hands, and a mixed reaction for them from this capacity crowd
Eve: Pretty obvious who their favorite was, Holly Arrow milking that reaction.
Deadprez: Being the favorite with the fans doesn’t guarantee victory though.
Gavin Kirkland: Still can’t believe Kennedy isn’t here
Eve: Get over it will you
(We cut back to the ring, where Heidi waits as each competitor takes their podium.)
Heidi Huxley: Thank you all for joining me for this debate. I, and Kennedy both hope you are going to behave yourselves. I’m sure you understand Kennedy doesn’t stand for any nonsense.
(A mixed reaction from the competitors, but the camera catches Holly Arrow rolling her eyes.)
Heidi Huxley: You have all been given a huge opportunity in this match, so Abel Atami, why don’t you tell us why YOU should be the number one contender to the National Elite Championship?
(Boos ring out as Abel leans forwards towards his mic. He pauses, before starting to speak.)
Abel Atami: That’s an easy one. For as long as I can remember, my name has been treated like a joke.
Harper Lee: Which it is…
Heidi Huxley: Please Harper, you will get your chance.
(Harper holds up her hands but obviously isn’t really sorry.)
Abel Atami: As I was saying before I was rudely interrupted by that scrawny specimen over there. I’ve been seen as a laughing stock for too long, treated as if I was nothing. I have the size, and the strength to beat ANYONE in this company, and recently I have been proving it every single week. I know it’s going to be tough, there is ‘some’ opposition that is sure, but no one is laughing at me anymore, and after the Scramble match, everyone will have to shut up. And once I am the Number One contender, it is inevitable that the Championship itself will follow.
Heidi Huxley: Thank you Abel… Veena, same question?
Veena Adams: Thank you Heidi, let’s do lunch later yeah. You, me and Kennedy?
(The crowd boos, Veena obviously bringing to the fans attention her relation as advisor to management.)
Veena Adams: However, why should I be the number one contender? Everyone knows I should be the Champion, never mind a contender. Look around me, at these other people assembled, there isn’t one of them anywhere my level.
Hunnid Honcho: You trippin’ Dawg
(Heidi gives him a look, Honcho waving his hand at her dismissively.)
Heidi Huxley: Please Veena, continue.
Veena Adams: Thank you… as I was saying, no one is at my level or has the same prestige and as such there is absolutely no way I lose this match. Period. I’m just built from different stocks.
Heidi Huxley: Thank you… Harley?
Harper Lee: Hold on, there isn’t any way you are leaving me till last, that ain’t happening.
Heidi Huxley: You will wait your turn
Veena Adams: Yeah, back of the line where you belong.
Harley Lewis: It’s not like anyone wants to hear what you have to say anyway.
Harper Lee: How’s about you step off that podium and I break it over your head ‘Don’
Abel Atami: HAHA!!!
Veena Adams: And once you’ve done that Harper, why don’t I shove it up Abels gargantuan a…
Heidi Huxley: PLEASE!!!
Hunnid Honcho: Dawg got ass to spare, ain’t no lie.
Harley Lewis: As I was saying… I faced Joso in the finals of the New Era Classic and since then, things haven’t been the same. There is no question I belong in this company, and there is no question that I should be the National Elite Champion. Joso went onto to great things, but there is no question in my mind that I am better than he ever will be. And this match is opportunity to prove that.
Hunnid Honcho: Give over bro, you ain’t really believin’ that with Honcho in the match.
Harley Lewis: The fact you are makes it all the more believable.
Hunnid Honcho: You spittin’ lies homie. See, there is only room for one top dog, and everyone knows the biggest dawg in the house is the Honcho. You all be scramblin’ for position, makin’ ya moves, but it all be pointless. Only one person grabbin’ that title shot, and that’s always gonna be me. Period.
Harley Lewis: I honestly don’t know what you just said.
(Everyone else on their podiums shrug their shoulders in agreement.)
Hunnid Honcho: You all trippin’… I’m gonna be winnin’
Harper Lee: Only one person going to be winning this match, and this whole arena knows that’s going to be me.
Abel Atami: And what you done of late?
Harper Lee: What have I done? Bro, I don’t know if you’ve been paying attention, but while you’ve been scraping the barrel with these other insignificancies, I’ve been winning Gold ALL year. Yeah, it’s gone a bit south of late, and I’m maybe a little less confident that usual, but fact is, Harper Lee getting back on the horse is only a matter of time.
Holly Arrow: I disagree
(All eyes turn to Holly who has been quite quiet thus far)
Veena Adams: Oh look, she speaks.
Holly Arrow: Just because I don’t need to hog the limelight like everyone else in this match, doesn’t mean that I’m not listening to every single word you all say. See, I don’t have to discount all your abilities to make me feel better about myself. I know full well what you can all do, and that it’s going to be tough. All I know is that more than ever I am ready to win gold in this company, and this is the next step towards that.
Veena Adams: Looks like you’ll be taking a step backwards.
Harper Lee: That’s just about the most sensible thing you’ve said, but you’ll be joining her.
Hunnid Honcho: Are yous for reals?
Harper Lee: Count on it.
Abel Atami: So, how about you see how ‘reals’ I am.
Harley Lewis: You all wanna go, we don’t have to wait
Heidi Huxley: I’M WARNING YOU ALL RIGHT NOW!!!
Holly Arrow: You all want a taste of what’s coming, I’m rea…
(Harper leaps off her podium and drives an elbow into the back of Holly, sending her off the podium and to the floor. Honcho takes the opportunity and the element of surprise to tackle down Harley, the two of them rolling on the canvas.)
Abel Atami: Now you are all talking my language.
(Abel grabs Harper and throws her into the corner, the two of them trading blows, trying to knock the other out. Heidi is screaming, trying to get some sense of order, but Veena leads her away, knowing the situation has escalated too far. As Veena gets Heidi out of the ring, security run down the ramp as Harley and Honcho are on their feet, Honcho hitting Harley with a low blow, before Harper spins him around and is about to slug him when Holly takes her down with a perfectly executed drop kick. Finally security floods the ring, and starts to gain some semblance of order, as Veena leads Heidi up the ramp.)
Deadprez: This debate predictably gets out of order. All six individuals making their points before all out brawling ensued
Gavin Kirkland: It’s passion that’s all, nothing wrong with that.
Eve: Either way, this situation has deteriorated just one week before Road to Redemption. And you can bet Kennedy Street will not be happy with what she has just seen.
Gavin Kirkland: Wouldn’t have happened if she was here… mark my words.
(The camera cuts back to the ring where order has been restored, but the competitors in the scramble continue to shout at each other as it cuts to a commercial break.)
(The camera pans back to the ringside area, as Gina Romano is seen standing with a smile on her face and a microphone in her hand.)
Gina Romano: THE FOLLOWING CONTEST IS SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL!
Crowd: ONE FALL!
(‘Bad Man’ by Polo G blasts through the speakers to a loud negative reception from the audience as Abel Atami is seen making his way out to the stage while being accompanied to the ring by none other than his manager, Antonne Prudence. Atami poses for a moment trying to display his strength as Antonne Prudence claps, before both of them start walking down the ramp right after.)
Gina Romano: INTRODUCING FIRST… FROM SAMOA… WEIGHING IN AT 251 POUNDS… ‘THE REDEEMED…’ AAAABEEEEEEEL AAAAATAAAAMIIIIII!
Deadprez: Here comes Abel Atami! This match is scheduled to be a preview match for the Scramble Contenders match at Road to Redemption, and Abel looks to make a statement here tonight! Last week Abel Atami was able to pick up a HUGE victory over Lexi, and tonight he can keep that wave of momentum going ahead of Road to Redemption if he can get past someone who happens to be one of his opponents there as well!
(As Abel is in the ring and Antonne is by his side at ringside, ‘I’m a Wanted Man’ by Royal Deluxe is heard replacing ‘Bad Man’ to another loud negative reception from the audience as Harley Lewis is seen making his way out to the stage with a grin on his face which displays nothing but confidence. Harley spreads his arms in the air embracing his strong will to make sure things go his way tonight, before starting to make his way down to the ring.)
Gina Romano: AND HIS OPPONENT… FROM MANCHESTER, ENGLAND… WEIGHING IN AT 196 POUNDS…’DON LEWIS…’ HAAAAARLEEEEEY LEEEEEWIIIIIIS!!!!!
Deadprez: And here comes his opponent for his match here tonight, Harley Lewis is here! The Scramble Contenders match at Road to Redemption is a match Harley Lewis was able to qualify for after beating Major Michael Scott Connor in a qualifying match a few weeks ago, and now he faces one of his opponents in said match in the form of Abel Atami! Both of these competitors look hungrier than ever for a win here tonight, and it is what generally makes this one seem to be about to end up as a pretty interesting dynamic! Let’s get this started!
(DING! DING! DING!)
Deadprez: Here we go ladies and gentlemen, this National Elite Championship Scramble Contenders Preview Match is officially underway! We got Abel Atami squaring off against Harley Lewis here tonight, and obviously, both of these young men have so much to prove! Harley Lewis has Abel Atami in a headlock, but Abel is obviously able to easily overpower him as he drops him down the ring mat! Harley is quickly able to get back up though, but Abel wastes no time, immediately running at him with a lariat! But Harley Lewis ducks underneath the lariat attempt by Abel Atami as he rebounds running off the ropes, AND ABEL ATAMI TURNS AROUND JUST FOR LEWIS TO SUCCESSFULLY GROUND HIM WITH A DROPKICK! WHAT A MANEUVER BY LEWIS! ATAMI GETS BACK UP TO HIS FEET NOT ENTIRELY BALANCED ALL BECAUSE OF THE IMPACT OF THE MOVE, ALL FOR HARLEY LEWIS JUST TO STRIKE HIM WITH A SPINNING KICK TO THE GUT, BEFORE FOLLOWING IT UP WITH A SPINNING HEEL KICK RIGHT TO THE SKULL GROUNDING HIM ONCE AGAIN! WHAT A COMBINATION BY HARLEY LEWIS!
Eve: Harley Lewis smirks as Antonne Prudence is shouting at Abel to get back up from the ringside area, but Harley does not seem to care much whatsoever, as he grabs Abel Atami, picking him right back up to his feet- BUT ABEL IS QUICKLY ABLE TO TURN THE TABLES, AS HE NAILS HARLEY WITH A HUGE FOREARM STRIKE RIGHT TO THE CHIN! HARLEY LEWIS IS FAZED AT THE MOMENT, WHICH ABEL QUICKLY LOOKS TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF AS HE GRABS HARLEY LEWIS, PUSHING HIM INTO THE ROPES, AND THUS, HARLEY FORCEFULLY REBOUNDS, ALL SET UP FOR ABEL TO TAKE HIM DOWN WITH A BIG BOOT! WOW! HARLEY FLIPS INSIDE OUT FALLING ALL THE WAY DOWN THE RING MAT AND STANDING BACK UP ON WOBBLY FEET FROM THE IMPACT, ALL FOR ABEL ATAMI TO GRAB HIM, AND THEN IMMEDIATELY DROP HIM BACK DOWN WITH A NORTHERN LIGHTS SUPLEX! NORTHERN LIGHTS SUPLEX CONNECTS ON HARLEY LEWIS, AND ABEL QUICKLY TAKES ADVANTAGE, GOING FOR THE PIN! THE COVER! THE COVER ON HARLEY LEWIS!
OOOOONNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Gavin Kirkland: NOT JUST WAS HARLEY LEWIS QUICKLY ABLE TO FORCE THE SHOULDER UP AND BREAK THE PIN ATTEMPT BY HIS OPPONENT HERE TONIGHT, BUT HE QUICKLY TRANSITIONS THE POSITION INTO A SMALL PACKAGE PIN! SMALL PACKAGE PIN RIGHT HERE BY HARLEY LEWIS! THE SMALL PACKAGE PIN ON ABEL ATAMI, AND IT WAS SO SMARTLY AND QUICKLY APPLIED THAT IT IS ACTUALLY QUESTIONABLE IF ABEL WILL BE ABLE TO SURVIVE ALTHOUGH THIS MATCH JUST STARTED! THE ROLL-UP BY HARLEY LEWIS RIGHT HERE, AND ABEL ATAMI’S SHOULDERS ARE DOWN! HARLEY LEWIS MIGHT JUST STEAL IT RIGHT HERE!
OOOOONNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEE-
Deadprez: BUT ABEL ATAMI IS IMMEDIATELY ABLE TO KICK OUT NONETHELESS, CLEARLY STATING THAT IT IS GOING TO OBVIOUSLY TAKE MUCH MORE IN ORDER TO KEEP HIM OUT OF THIS ONE FOR GOOD, AS BOTH COMPETITORS QUICKLY GET RIGHT BACK UP TO THEIR FEET, BUT THIS TIME IT IS HARLEY LEWIS WHO IS PERFECTLY ABLE TO CAPITALIZE, AS HE GROUNDS ABEL ATAMI WITH A HUGE JUMPING SPINNING KICK! WHAT A MANEUVER BY HARLEY LEWIS! ABEL ATAMI IS SLOWLY BACKING UP TO HIS FEET, BUT HARLEY USES THAT IN HIS FAVOR AS HE QUICKLY JUMPS INTO THE ROPES SPRINGBOARDING, MEANWHILE ABEL IS STARTING TO FULLY STAND STILL WOOZY THOUGH, AND HE TAKES HIM DOWN WITH A SPRINGBOARD DROPKICK! SPRINGBOARD DROPKICK CONNECTS ON ABEL ATAMI, AND IT SENDS HIM BACK DOWN!
Eve: Antonne Prudence is seen sighing at the ringside area, clearly unhappy with what is taking place right now, but nonetheless Harley Lewis keeps going as he grabs Abel Atami, picking him back up to his feet- BUT ABEL IS SECRETLY ABLE TO RAKE THE EYE OF HARLEY LEWIS, AND HE’S BLINDSIDED! THE EYE RAKE BY ABEL ATAMI! WHAT A CHEAP AND AT THE SAME TIME SMART STRATEGY! HARLEY LEWIS IS UNABLE TO SEE ANYTHING, ALL THANKS TO WHAT ABEL ATAMI JUST DID, AND HE USES IT FOR HIS FAVOR! ABEL ATAMI GRABS HARLEY LEWIS, AS HE LIFTS HIM UP, BEFORE DROPPING HIM DOWN WITH A GUTWRENCH POWERBOMB! GUTWRENCH POWERBOMB ON HARLEY LEWIS CONNECTS! THE GUTWRENCH POWERBOMB BY ABEL ATAMI DROPS THE OPPONENT DOWN THE MAT!
Gavin Kirkland: YEAH, WHAT A MOVE BY ABEL! ABEL ATAMI DOES NOT SEEM TO BE DONE JUST YET, THOUGH, AS HE LOOKS AT DOWN AT HARLEY LEWIS WHO HE JUST DROPPED DOWN WITH THAT POWERFUL GUTWRENCH POWERBOMB, WITH AN EVIL-LOOKING GRIN SLOWLY STARTING TO FORM ON HIS FACE, BEFORE TAKING A FEW MOMENTS TO BALANCE HIMSELF, AND NAILING THE ALREADY DOWNED HARLEY LEWIS WITH A HUGE STANDING MOONSAULT! WOW! WHAT A DAMN MANEUVER BY ABEL ATAMI! THE STANDING MOONSAULT CONNECTS, AND IF YOU ASK ME, IT WAS TRULY IMPRESSIVE TO SEE SOMEONE OF HIS SIZE HITTING A MOVE LIKE THIS ONE! HARLEY LEWIS IS DOWN, AND ATAMI GOES FOR THE COVER!
OOOOONNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TTTTWWWW-
Deadprez: HARLEY LEWIS FORCES THE SHOULDER UP FROM THE MAT, STILL NOT EVEN A TWO! ABEL ATAMI LOOKS A LITTLE ANGERED AT THIS POINT, BUT HE STILL, UP TO THIS POINT AT LEAST, DOESN’T SLOW DOWN NONETHELESS! ATAMI PICKS LEWIS BACK UP TO HIS FEET, BUT IT’S HARLEY WHO FIGHTS BACK AS HE NAILS ABEL WITH A FOREARM SMASH RIGHT TO THE NOSE WHICH SENDS ABEL STUMBLING NEVERTHELESS REBOUNDING OFF THE ROPES, ALL TO DROP HARLEY DOWN WITH A REBOUND LARIAT! REBOUND LARIAT BY ABEL ATAMI CONNECTS AND TAKES HARLEY LEWIS WHO FALLS FLIPPING INSIDE OUT ALL THE WAY DOWN THE RING MAT! HARLEY IS DOWN AND NOW ABEL GRABS HIM PICKING HIM BACK UP TO HIS FEET, BUT ONCE AGAIN HARLEY IS **STILL** ABLE TO FIGHT BACK, AS HE HITS ABEL ATAMI WITH AN ELBOW STRIKE, BEFORE NAILING HIM WITH A KICK STRAIGHT INTO THE GUT, AND GROUNDING HIM WITH A SIT-OUT POWERBOMB! SIT-OUT POWERBOMB CONNECTS!
Eve: HARLEY LEWIS WAS JUST ABLE TO ONCE AGAIN GAIN FULL CONTROL OVER THIS MATCHUP RIGHT HERE, AND HE’S APPARENTLY LOOKING TO CAPITALIZE ON IT! Harley Lewis rolls out of the ring into the ring apron, before starting to climb his way up to the top turnbuckle, which he finally reaches, and now he’s charging at Abel Atami to get back up to his feet, which he is slowly doing! Harley takes his shot, AND HE TAKES DOWN ABEL ATAMI WITH A DIVING CROSSBODY! DIVING CROSSBODY BY HARLEY LEWIS! THE DIVING CROSSBODY CONNECTS TO ABEL ATAMI! THE DIVING CROSSBODY CONNECTS, AND ABEL ATAMI IS DOWN! HARLEY LEWIS SEEMINGLY IS NOT DONE THOUGH, AS HE ONCE AGAIN ROLLS OUT INTO THE RING APRON STARTING TO CLIMB HIS WAY UP TO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE YET AGAIN, PROBABLY GOING FOR YET ANOTHER DIVING CROSSBODY- BUT IT’S ANTONNE PRUDENCE WHO TAKES ADVANTAGE OF THE SITUATION AS THE REFEREE AIN’T LOOKING BUT INSTEAD CHECKING ON ABEL ATAMI, AS HE THROWS HARLEY OFF THE TURNBUCKLE LEADING TO HIS PRIVATE AREA LANDING RIGHT ON THE ROPES! HARLEY LEWIS IS IN ABSOLUTE AGONY RIGHT NOW! COME ON, THIS ISN’T GOOD! THIS ISN’T AS CLEAN AS IT HAS TO BE!
(As Abel Atami is finally able to recover, he realizes what just happened as he smirks in reaction, which is a look exchanged with his manager Antonne Prudence, all happening while both of them are looking at one another. Abel Atami gets right back up to his feet, staring down Harley Lewis with a confident smirk on his face…)
Gavin Kirkland: Antonne Prudence just got himself involved and it certainly ended up in Abel’s favor, and now this is Abel Atami’s chance to capitalize! Abel grabs Harley Lewis as he slowly picks him back up to his feet, before lifting him up on his shoulder, oh, this does not look good! Abel Atami keeps Harley Lewis on his shoulders for a while, and that is before he drops him down… PUMPHANDLE SLAM! PUMPHANDLE SLAM TO HARLEY LEWIS! WOW! WHAT A MANEUVER! PUMPHANDLE SLAM BY ABEL ATAMI TAKES DOWN HARLEY LEWIS, AND HARLEY LEWIS GETS BACK UP TO A SEATED POSITION FROM THE IMPACT OF THE MOVE! BUT ABEL ATAMI KEEPS THE ASSULT GOING WHATSOEVER AS HE TAKES HARLEY LEWIS DOWN WITH A PENALTY KICK RIGHT TO THE CHEST!
Deadprez: ABEL ATAMI IS UNLEASHING A VICIOUS ATTACK ON HARLEY LEWIS RIGHT HERE, AND HE ISN’T LOOKING TO STOP! HE GETS ON THE GROUNDED BODY OF HARLEY LEWIS AND HE STARTS NAILING HIS FOREHEAD WITH MULTIPLE FOREARM STRIKES RIGHT TO THE FOREHEAD! ABEL DOESN’T STOP NOR SLOW DOWN AT ALL, NOT ONE BIT, AND THE REFEREE TELLS HIM TO STOP – WHICH HE IMMEDIATELY DOES? AN UNEXPECTED MOVE BY ATAMI RIGHT HERE— OH, NEVERMIND, NOT FOR GOOD REASONS APPARENTLY! ABEL ATAMI GRABS THE HEAD OF HARLEY LEWIS, AND SLAMS IT RIGHT ON THE RING MAT MULTIPLE TIMES! ANTONNE PRUDENCE IS SEEN CLAPPING OUTSIDE THE RING, AS ABEL FINALLY STOPS AS HE STANDS BACK UP ON HIS FEET IN THE MIDDLE OF THE THE RING AND POSSES, TAUNTING THE CROWD, WHICH SHOWERS HIM WITH NOTHING BUT A THUNDER OF BOOS!
Crowd: YOU SUCK! YOU SUCK! YOU SUCK! YOU SUCK! YOU SUCK!
Eve: Abel now grabs the grounded Harley Lewis as he drags him around the ring, and he places him in a seated position against the bottom turnbuckle! What could he be looking for right now? Abel Atami then takes a distance as he runs into the opposite corner against Harley Lewis, and he runs back at his opponent… CANNONBALL! CANNONBALL BY ABEL ATAMI! THAT IS ONE OF THE MAIN MOVES IN THE ARSENAL OF HIS TRAINER, EAW HALL OF FAMER XANDER PAYNE! THE CANNONBALL BY ABEL ATAMI ABSOLUTELY NAILS HARLEY LEWIS, WHO IS NOW LAID OUT, LAYING DOWN RIGHT ON THE RING MAT! ABEL LOOKS TO KEEP THE ASSAULT GOING AS HE STARTS ROLLING OUT INTO THE RING APRON, MAKING HIS WAY UP TO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE, FINALLY REACHING, AND HE IMMEDIATELY NAILS LEWIS WITH A DIVING SPLASH! DIVING SPLASH BY ABEL ATAMI CONN-
(**CRASH!**)
Gavin Kirkland: HARLEY LEWIS ROLLS OUT OF THE HARM’S WAY, AS ABEL ATAMI JUST CRASHED ALL THE WAY DOWN INTO THE RING MAT! WHAT A REVERSAL BY HARLEY LEWIS, WHO NOW WAS ABLE TO TURN THINGS AROUND AND MAKE THIS MATCH GO HIS WAY AGAIN! ABEL ATAMI IS HOLDING HIS CHEST AND RIBS SCREAMING IN AGONY, BUT THAT DOES NOT SEEM TO BE JUST IT AS HARLEY LEWIS, ALTHOUGH EXTREMELY TIRED AND HURT, IS QUICKLY ABLE TO GET RIGHT BACK UP TO HIS FEET, AND HE GRABS ABEL ATAMI, HOLDING HIS ARM, BEFORE PUSHING HIM FORWARD AND PULLING HIM BACK INTO HIMSELF, AND ‘THE QUEEN’S BLESSING!!!!’ ‘THE QUEEN’S BLESSING’ BY HARLEY LEWIS!!! WHAT A MANEUVER! WHAT A MANEUVER! THE RIPCORD KNEE BY HARLEY LEWIS CONNECTS!! I CONFIRM THAT THIS MUST HAVE HURT, HECK, ABEL ATAMI’S JAW MIGHT AS WELL JUST BE BROKEN RIGHT NOW!!! LEWIS DROPS DOWN INTO THE COVER, HE HOOKS BOTH LEGS! THE COVER ON ABEL ATAMI!
OOOOONNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TTTTWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
TTTTTHHH-
Deadprez: SHOULDER UP BY ATAMI! STILL GOT A LITTLE MORE LEFT IN THE TANK, ABEL ATAMI SURVIVES! HARLEY LEWIS IS NOT NECESSARILY SHOCKED AT THE MOMENT, BUT HE’S ANGERED! LIKE, EXTRAORDINARILY ANGERED! HARLEY LEWIS STILL TRIES TO PUT AN END TO THIS MATCHUP AS HE GRABS ABEL ATAMI, PICKING HIM RIGHT BACK UP TO HIS FEET, AND HE SHOVES HIM OUT OF THE RING! WAIT, NO! ABEL REVERSES! ABEL SHOVES HARLEY LEWIS OUT OF THE RING INSTEAD, AND HARLEY LEWIS CRASHES FALLING RIGHT INTO THE FLOOR OF THE RINGSIDE AREA! ABEL DOESN’T LOOK TO ROLL OUT AND CONTINUE THIS MATCHUP OUT OF THE RING THOUGH- but instead…he’s talking to the referee? Is Abel distracting the referee right now? Oh, come on now, stop with this! Meanwhile Abel is distracting the referee, it’s Harley Lewis who’s slowly getting back up to his feet thanks to the barricade, ALL TO GET DROPPED BACK DOWN AS ANTONNE PRUDENCE SMASHES HIS WALKING STICK RIGHT INTO THE HEAD OF LEWIS! SERIOUSLY? ABEL SUDDENLY STOPS TALKING TO THE REF AS HE LOOKS BACK AT LEWIS WHO’S LAID OUT IN THE RINGSIDE AREA, BEFORE BOTH HE AND ANTONNE LAUGH LOOKING AT EACH OTHER AT THE SAME TIME!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
Eve: Abel Atami rolls out of the ring, as he grabs Harley Lewis slowly picking him up to his feet, ALL TO TOSS HIM INTO THE BARRICADE! HARLEY LEWIS SCREAMS IN AGONY WHICH DOESN’T EVEN FAZE ABEL WHATSOEVER, AS HE GRABS HIM, SLAMMING HIS HEAD ON THE TOP OF THE BARRICADE MULTIPLE TIMES! ABEL GRABS HARLEY LEWIS BEFORE LIFTING HIM UP ON HIS SHOULDERS! OH NO! OH NO! THIS DOESN’T LOOK GOOD! FISHERMAN’S DRIVER! FISHERMAN’S DRIVER! FISHERMAN’S DRIVE NAILS HARLEY LEWIS! FISHERMAN’S DRIVER BY ABEL ATAMI CONNECTS, AND HE THROWS HARLEY LEWIS BACK IN THE RING, BEFORE POSING RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE FRONT ROW, GETTING SHOWERED WITH NOTHING BUT LOUDER BOOS IN REACTION!
FOUR!
FIVE!
SIX!
Gavin Kirkland: Abel Atami rolls back inside the ring, kicking off the head of Lewis keeping him grounded, and then stomping his chest! A huge display of violence and ruthlessness here by Abel Atami, AND HE JUMPS WITH ALL OF HIS WEIGHT RIGHT INTO THE CHEST OF HARLEY LEWIS! Abel Atami now grabs Lewis, picking him back up to his feet, and he lifts him up yet again, AND ANOTHER FISHERMAN’S DRIVER BY ABEL ATAMI! FISHERMAN’S DRIVER TO HARLEY LEWIS DRIVES HIS HEAD DOWN THE RING MAT! WHAT A MANEUVER FOR THE SECOND TIME BY ABEL ATAMI HERE IN THIS MATCHUP! AND HE GOES FOR THE COVER!
OOOOONNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
TTTTWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
TTTHHHHRR-
Deadprez: STILL NOT ENOUGH! HARLEY LEWIS IS A FIGHTER! HARLEY POPS THE SHOULDER UP YET AGAIN! ABEL ATAMI HITS THE MAT IN ANGER MEANWHILE ANTONNE PRUDENCE IS STOMPING HIS FEET IN FRUSTRATION AT THE RINGSIDE AREA! BUT IT CHANGES NOTHING WHATSOEVER; THIS MATCH IS STILL GOING!
Eve: ABEL ATAMI IS IN SHOCK AT THE MOMENT! HE’S SLOWLY GAINING THE FULL ABILITY TO REALIZE THAT HARLEY LEWIS WAS NEVER GONNA BE A CAKEWALK, AND IT SHOWS! ABEL ATAMI GRABS HARLEY LEWIS PICKING HIM BACK UP TO HIS FEET, BUT THE INSTANT REALIZATION BY LEWIS! KICK RIGHT TO THE GUT OF ATAMI, FOLLOWED UP BY AN UPPERCUT! ATAMI IS FAZED! BUT HE STILL RESPONDS WITH A HUGE FOREARM STRIKE RIGHT TO THE SKULL! BUT HARLEY HAS THE VERY SAME RESPONSE; FOREARM STRIKE RIGHT TO THE FACE OF ABEL! AND THESE INDIVIDUALS START TRADING STRIKES RIGHT NOW! ABEL! HARLEY! ABEL! HARLEY! ABEL! HARLEY! ABEL! HARLEY! ABEL! ABEL! ABEL! ABEL! ABEL ATAMI IS STARTING TO REGAIN CONTROL, BUT HARLEY LEWIS DUCKS UNDERNEATH THE LAST STRIKE GOING RIGHT BEHIND HIM! DROPKICK RIGHT TO THE BACK SENDS ATAMI STUMBLING AND NOW HE’S LEANING TOWARDS THE ROPES! AND ANOTHER DROPKICK AND ABEL ATAMI IS SENT OUT OF THE RING! HARLEY LEWIS ROLLS OUT FOLLOWING HIM THOUGH AND THIS MATCH IS ONCE AGAIN GOING ON OUT OF THE RING!

Gavin Kirkland: HARLEY LEWIS GRABS ABEL ATAMI PICKING HIM RIGHT BACK UP TO HIS FEET- WAIT! THAT’S ANTONNE PRUDENCE! ANTONNE PRUDENCE IS STILL GETTING HIMSELF INVOLVED IN THIS MATCH! HE’S DISTRACTING HARLEY! COME ON, STOP!
Antonne Prudence: (off-mic) Come on, Mr. Lewis. Let’s face it here; Abel Atami is a monster. He already has this match in the bag; you already lost. Why not give it up already? You would make it easier for both of yo-
(**SLAP!**)
Deadprez: HARLEY LEWIS HAS HAD ENOUGH, AND HE NAILS ANTONNE PRUDENCE WITH A SLAP ACROSS THE FACE! AND HE GRABS HIM LIFTING HIM UP… ‘JUKEBOX BREAKER!!!’ HARLEY LEWIS JUST LAID OUT ANTONNE PRUDENCE FOR GOOD, AND IF YOU ASK ME, HE DESERVED IT! ANTONNE PRUDENCE FINALLY GOT WHAT HE DESERVES!

HARLEY GRABS HIM TRYING TO TOSS HIM BACK INTO THE RING, BUT HE’S SO HEAVY! HARLEY LOOKS CONFUSED WITH WHAT TO DO RIGHT NOW, BUT HE CHOOSES TO KEEP HIMSELF SAFE ALTHOUGH NOT IN A WAY HE WOULD HAVE WANTED! HARLEY LEWIS ROLLS BACK IN THE RING!

Antonne Prudence: (off-mic) :dead:

**TEN!!!!**
(DING! DING! DING!)
Harley Lewis: :noah:
Gina Romano: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN… HERE IS YOUR WINNER AS A RESULT OF COUNT-OUT… HAAAAARLEEEEEYYYY LEEEEEWIIIIISSSS!!!!
(‘I’m a Wanted Man’ is heard playing up through the speakers to a mixed reception from the audience mostly dominated with boos, as Harley Lewis shoots back up to his feet, still not looking entirely happy with the outcome, but still tends to live with it nonetheless as the referee helps him fully stand back up, before raising his arm in victory, thus, acknowledging him as the winner.)
Deadprez: Clearly not the way he would have hoped for, but Harley Lewis wins nonetheless!
Eve: On the other hand, though, this was a great matchup where both individuals were able to bring their absolute all to the table. Harley Lewis was the one able to win although not through the most dominating method, and it is still in his favor, as he’s the one with all of the momentum by his side ahead of Road to Redemption! Congratulations to Harley Lewis!
(The last shot is seen as Harley Lewis is seen celebrating his victory on the top rope, posing, and still not having the happiest expression on his face. Meanwhile, Abel Atami is seen slowly recovering and checking on his manager, Antonne Prudence, who still is totally unconscious. From there, Saturday Night Showdown fades to an ad for Road to Retribution.)
(“M3tamorphosis” by Playboi Carti ft. Kid Cudi screams through the Bangkok arena, instantaneously bringing the good times to a close. Thunderous jeers ring out as the Answers World champion, who is accompanied tonight by the malevolent Kassidy Heart, appears on the stage. Impact is deep into his tenth-reign atop the mountain in Elite Answers Wrestling. But at Road to Redemption, he’ll undoubtedly face the toughest test of his reign yet as he is locked inside of the Elimination Chamber alongside five other men! That’s without speaking on the antics of Jake Smith; who with a Cash in the Vault briefcase forever at his side, will always pose a threat to the unrivalled legacy that Impact has curated in the business. Two of the promotion’s most dominant athletes head straight for the ring, a week out from the second-biggest Free-Per-View on the calendar, it’s no surprise that both Impact and Kassidy are alert and punctual. This is crunch time, people! Cameras cut to ringside where we are greeted with the ever-familiar sight of Eve, Gavin Kirkland and Showdown’s lead announcer, Deadprez. )
Deadprez: It’s been one hell of a ride for Impact of late. That target on his back has been growing wider-and-wider for some time now. You’ve got to assume that in Beijing, China at Road to Redemption, our reigning Answers World champion will be under an incredible amount of stress! In spite of this, he and Kassidy Heart have been traversing the waters well. Especially since the arrival of Kennedy Street to Saturday Night Showdown! I dare say that our new General Manager has taken a liking to the two. An example of this is tonight’s main event, a four-on-two match as Impact is joined by Jon Kelton, Xander Payne and Ryan Wilson as they come against Adam Lucas and Donovan Duke! Gavin, your thoughts?
Gavin Kirkland: I don’t necessarily think much has changed for Impact and Kassidy. They’re both bred for this business and both have accolades stacked higher than a skyscraper! Impact is forever at the center of the “Greatest of All Time” conversations and Kassidy Heart isn’t far behind him! Most champions would fear entering the Elimination Chamber. But Impact has been competing in these kinds of matches and winning when the likes of Donovan Duke and Jon Kelton were still struggling on their science homework! Meanwhile Kassidy Heart, the personification of greatness, a well-rounded woman with a mean streak. We saw what happens when somebody presses her buttons just last week! Jake Smith has been antagonizing these two for what seems like forever. It was good to see Kassidy get some payback!
Eve: Payback? Gavin, she almost blinded poor Jake! That woman doesn’t have a mean streak, you could very easily make an argument that she should be locked-up! Kassidy Heart is a temptress, she lures you in with those pretty eyes and then rips your jugular from your neck. Impact isn’t much better, either! These two are the reason Hurricane Hawk was fired, sure they’ve been dominant this season, I can’t argue with that. But it’s borderline-oppression, their partnership has left Showdown starved and where some people see excellence? I see an opportunity for someone to rise up to the task and walk out of Road to Redemption with the Answers World Championship! Should that be Jake Smith, or one of the five other men inside of the daunting Elimination Chamber, I’m not sure.
Deadprez: Let’s cut back to the ring and see what these two polarizing figures have to say!
( Almost as if Deadprez knew, Impact and Kassidy Heart are now situated in the ring. Walking over to the apron, Kassidy gestures for a pair of microphones from a ringside attendant. Her request is granted, handing one of the sound devices over to Impact while she begins to address her assault of Jake Smith; as well as what has been going on in her personal life. )
Kassidy Heart: Last week was oh-so memorable for me. No, not due to what I did to Jake Smith, but what occurred the morning after. Our gestational carrier gave birth to a beautiful baby boy and I once again became a mother. My husband and I couldn’t be happier. I have been given an incredible life and that is never lost on me; in spite of what you fans and the men and women backstage who are jealous of me think. Now I could talk for hours about how wonderful motherhood is and the things that our family gets up to when I have the time. But I understand you’re not here for that. There’s so much that has happened on Showdown this season, it’s an ever-changing platform and at the top of that platform? Sit myself and my good friend Impact.
Kassidy Heart: At No Regards, the two of us ensured that Showdown would change for the better. Hurricane Hawk was running this place into the ground, in spite of my efforts and the efforts of the Answers World champion, we were in a rut. Behind Dynasty, behind Voltage, every appearance we had was a glimmer of hope struggling to swim through minutes-on-minutes of tiring and repetitive darkness. I look at the men that Impact is facing in the Elimination Chamber and I struggle to see how one win in one qualification match suddenly un-does the months preceding it, where men like Jon Kelton, Adam Lucas and Ryan Wilson have failed themselves and failed their brand time-and-time again.
Kassidy Heart: Kennedy has done a wonderful job since taking over. I have no doubts in my mind that come the end of the year, Heidi Huxley will be getting a raise, Kennedy will be getting the praise and as for Impact? He will still be holding the Answers World Championship. Showdown has changed for the better, Kennedy is clamping down on these little wannabe vigilantes such as Adam, Donovan Duke too, making sure they know not to step out of line and challenge the hierarchy. Look at my own problems, too. Jake Smith has been flailing like a fish out of water since he won that Cash in the Vault briefcase. He thinks he’s going to do the unthinkable. He thinks that he’s going to grow a backbone, find some talent and overcome me? I don’t think so. I do not think that’s possible. Because I am the epitome of superiority and whenever I get into the ring? Bloodshed isn’t far behind.
Kassidy Heart: Our Last Person Standing match gives me a chance to exercise my rights as the bloodiest, most violent woman in wrestling. It gives a chance for my nasty side, that deep, dark side of me that has watched Jake Smith try cash-in, try to shock the world again-and-again, to come out and put a stop to the nonsense. Should Showdown be entrenched in snow or at front-and-center, sitting in the sunshine? Best believe that two names will be synonymous with the main event, taking all of the glory. Impact and Kassidy Heart, those are the names that saved this show week-in and week-out as Hurricane Hawk was backstage twiddling his thumbs and being out of touch. They’re also the names that’ll spearhead this new era into 2023, I don’t make a habit of lying so you can mark those words down. We’re unstoppable!
( Kassidy Heart looks over at Impact, who in turn lifts the microphone up in front of him. The fans here tonight in Thailand boo him, but he’s unphased by the reaction. Impact has been doing this far too long to grow irate in relation to the crowd’s behaviour. So, he exchanges a few inaudible comments with Kassidy while the audience simmers down. )
Impact: Everything that Kassidy has said is right and I agree with every word. Hurricane Hawk was the reason this brand stagnated. At No Regards? Alex Myers and Jack Ripley threw everything they could at us and we overcame it together. That is what people like us do. No matter if times are hard or if this sport is in a golden age, we outwork and beat those we come up against because we’re stronger, smarter and faster. We adapt to any and all situations and we’ve proven that this season. Working under two general managers, fighting against a plethora of challenges and coming out on top. They’re stacking the deck against me. At Road to Redemption I’ll be fighting against five men, with a sixth waiting to cash-in on me when I inevitably come out of the Elimination Chamber with my Answers World Championship.
Impact: I’m not worried about Jake Smith. He’s a non-threat. His season has been poor with him, his tag team partner and his girlfriend being the perennial disappointments of Showdown. People are distracted by this, distracted by how poor he has been in the ring this season because he keeps showing up and poking his nose where it isn’t involved. Jake’s running a game here, and sure, he’s gotten the better of Kassidy and I once-or-twice at most. But he is letting his mouth write a check that his ass can’t cash. All these threats and insinuations, all the people cheering and wanting him to get the better of me, of myself and Kassidy, they don’t know Jake Smith like I do. I’m a realist, if he was ever going to be someone of prominence in this business it would have happened years ago, he is never taking my title from me.
Impact: There is no doubt in my mind that the woman standing next to me is going to maul Jake and leave him a shell of the man he once was. She is going to rag-doll around the arena and then leave him knocked out, concussed, incapable of walking let alone running down to the ring and cashing in his Cash in the Vault briefcase. You people have forgotten about Kassidy and what she can accomplish when she puts her mind to something. Just because she isn’t obsessed with the limelight, because she has oh-so selflessly been helping me manage Showdown and be the top stars of Showdown, you think she isn’t capable of winning a championship whenever she wants and breaking a man in two whenever she wants.
Impact: Just like Jake, my opponents forget who I am and what I am capable of. If I was able to outlast twenty-nine other men to win the Grand Rampage not once, but twice? Then surviving the Elimination is a small task by comparison. I look at the other Elimination Chambers slated for this show and I scoff, I look at the champions hyping them up as the biggest matches of their careers. For me? This is merely a formality. My opponents will treat this like they’ll die if they don’t walk out with my championship. I’ve faced taller tasks, meaner feats and bluntly better talents in the ring than them and I have the utmost confidence when all is said and done, I’ll have washed through their souls and come out of the other side unafflicted. Adam, Donovan, Jon, Ryan and Xander. They have to prove they’re capable, for there is no greater big game player and no man better than I am who can handle the brightest of spotlights.
( Assured in his words, Impact takes a couple of steps back. Kassidy immediately follows on from what he was saying, ignoring the mostly-negative reaction here in Bangkok. )
Kassidy Heart: At Road to Redemption, Jake Smith will realize he’s not as clever as he thinks he is and that he has bitten off more than he can chew. He’s not the one in control, I am. Impact and I have been controlling this brand all season and nothing is going to change that. At Road to Redemption, dreams die. These silly little ambitions of men not capable of matching up against Impact and I die. I am going to dispose of Jake Smith, put an end to all of this Cash in the Vault nonsense and ensure that heading into the new year? I’ll have everything that I need to pursue a championship of my choosing. Because truly, it’s like Impact said. People have forgotten there’s a divide between the two of us and the rest of this roster. Next weekend? We’re both going to win with relative ease and nothing can be done or said to change that.
( Impact holds his championship up high while Kassidy gives an intense stare down the barrel of the camera. From there, both of the high-caliber athletes and megastars of Showdown vacate the ring, walking up the ramp as the crowd serenades them in jeers. We cut back to he commentary table who summarize what has been said, before the broadcast transitions from Deadprez, Gavin Kirkland and Eve to the next portion of the show! )
(The camera returns to the ring, where Gina Romano is standing in the center of the ring with a microphone in hand, ready to announce the next contest.)
Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen! This next contest has a 20 MINUTE TIME LIMIT, and it is scheduled for ONE FALL!
Crowd: ONE FALL!!
(‘No Auto Durk’ by Lil Durk starts playing throughout as Hunnid Honcho enters the arena. The crowd is giving the competitor a mixed, but more negative reaction as he heads to the ring.)
Gina Romano: Introducing first! From Chicago, Illinois! Weighing in at 345 pounds! Here is the “LYRICAL MIRACLE” HUNNID HONCHO!
Deadprez: Here comes a man who is starting to develop somewhat of a following here in EAW. He isn’t the most popular by any means, but you have to give him credit for the work he is putting into his career here in EAW.
Eve: He is the biggest man on Showdown. Almost seven feet tall and 345 pounds. He is one of the six competitors in the Contender’s Scramble Match at Road to Redemption. If he can use his size and his power to his advantage, he could walk away as the Number One Contender to the National Elite Championship.
Gavin Kirkland: But the noticeable advantage will also put a bullseye on his back. Not only does he want to have a Number One Album, he wants success in the ring. He also wants to build momentum towards next week and if he can defeat his opponent tonight, what momentum he will have.
(Hunnid enters the ring and takes his corner as his music goes off. After a few seconds of silence,’Sweet Dreams’ by Eurythmics, Annie Lennox & Dave Stewart starts to play as Harper Lee enters the arena. Her reaction is more profound and definite with the whole arena giving her boos and jeers. Harper doesn’t care )
Gina Romano: Introducing his opponent! From Charlotte, North Carolina. Weighing in at 118 pounds! Here is “THE CAPTAIN” HARPER LEE!
Eve: Say what you want about Harper Lee’s attitude, and I have, but she is a very dangerous competitor and she is more than willing to do whatever she can to win this scramble match and become the Number One contender yet again.
Gavin Kirkland: This is the first time in a long time that Harper is without championship gold and she doesn’t like it one bit. She’s more than a little frustrated and she has no issue taking her aggressions out on Hunnid Honcho tonight.
Deadprez: Harper Lee is the only one of the six competitors in the Scramble match that is a former Champion, so she has that advantage. But that’s Road to Redemption. Tonight she has Hunnid Honcho in singles action and if she isn’t focused on this match, Hunnid could send Harper down the charts. Let’s see who picks up the win tonight.
(Harper slides into the ring and takes her corner as her entrance music fades off. She is glaring at Hunnid as she is ready to fight. The referee checks both competitors before calling for the bell.)
(DING! DING! DING!)
Deadprez: Here we go! Bell has rung and we are underway. If you look at the two competitors in the ring and look at their stats, you’d have to admit that this is almost a mismatch. Honcho is almost two feet taller and almost triple Harper’s weight. What should Harper do in this match?
Eve: Do what she is doing right now. She needs to avoid a direct fight with Honcho as much as possible because there’s no doubt she will be overpowered in a direct contact situation. She needs to use that bag of tricks she has developed since arriving in EAW to pull her through.
Gavin Kirkland: Honcho was looking for a lockup, but Harper gets herself into the ropes and the referee forces Honcho back as Harper points to her head. Saying that she’s smarter than Honcho. That remains to be seen right now as Honcho brushes Harper off for a moment and yells to the crowd.
Hunnid Honcho: (off-mic) LISTEN TO MY NEWEST RELEASE!!
Deadprez: It might not be the smartest thing to do, but you gotta give him credit for advertising during a match like this, BUT HARPER LEE HAS JUST JUMPED ON HONCHO’S BACK AND IS TRYING TO GET A SLEEPER HOLD APPLIED!
Gavin Kirkland: HARPER IS GETTING BOUNCED AROUND LIKE A RODEO RIDER AT THE MOMENT AS HONCHO IS TRYING TO GET HARPER OFF HIS BACK! It’s to no avail as Harper is still trying to choke out Honcho–
Eve: HONCHO JUST GRABBED A HANDFUL OF HARPER’S HAIR AND SNAPMARED HER OFF HIS BACK AND TO THE CANVAS! Harper holding her back as Honcho uses that big boot AND KICKS HARPER IN THE SPINE!
Deadprez: That kick could have knocked her spine out of alignment right there but doesn’t stop Harper from making it back to her feet. Honcho grabs Harper’s arm and whips her into the ropes. Harper with a rebound as Honcho grabs her, BUT HARPER LOOKS TO COUNTER WITH A HEADSCISSORS–
Gavin Kirkland: NO! SHE IS LOOKING FOR THAT OCTOPUS STYLE SUBMISSION! She’s trying to grab his arm to lock the submission in, BUT HONCHO SPINS HER OUT AND COUNTERS WITH A SIDEWALK SLAM! HARPER LEE PLANTED HARD AFTER THAT! At this rate, we’ll have to scrape Harper off the mat when the match is over.
Eve: That’s not nice, but it unfortunately could be true. A 230 pound weight disadvantage might be too big… no pun intended… of odds for even Harper Lee to overcome. But it’s still early in the match as Honcho still has firm control.
Deadprez: Honcho once again looks to show his power as he picks Harper up like a sack of potatoes and whips her into the corner. HERE COMES HONCHO RUNNING AT FULL SPEED INTO THE CORNER LIKE A BULLDOZER–
Gavin Kirkland: HARPER GETS OUT OF THE WAY AT THE LAST SECOND AND HONCHO GETS UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL WITH THE TURNBUCKLES! Harper sees an opportunity to take advantage of this match by climbing to the top rope! Honcho has his back to Harper AS SHE JUMPS FROM THE TOP ROPE! SHE CATCHES HONCHO’S HEAD FOR A BULLDOG!
Deadprez: HE CAUGHT HER! HONCHO CAUGHT HARPER BEFORE SHE CAN GET THE BULLDOG AND HE JUST COUNTERS RIGHT INTO A BACK SUPLEX! HARPER WAS ABOUT TEN FEET IN THE HAIR AFTER THAT! DID YOU GUYS SEE THE BACK OF HER HEAD SNAP BACK AFTER THE SUPLEX?
Gavin Kirkland: Harper has taken some damage from some high impact moves early in this match as Honcho is using that power advantage expertly right now as he drags Harper to the center of the ring and hooks the leg for the cover. Are we about to witness an upset right here?
ONNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWOOOOOO!!
TTHHHHHRRRRRR—
Eve: HARPER LEE KICKS OUT AT TWO AND A NEAR FALL FOR HUNNID HONCHO! It’s hard to believe that this is only the first cover of the match. Harper has been through a lot of dangerous matches in her EAW career, but none of those matches have involved somebody the size of Hunnid Honcho. Honcho right now needs to stay on Harper if he hopes to finish her off.
Deadprez: That looks to be exactly what he is doing. Honcho brings Harper back to her feet and once again whips her into the corner. Honcho goes to the well once again by running full speed into the corner. THIS TIME IT WORKS AS HE JUST SPLASHES HARPER IN THE CORNER!
Eve: HARPER COULD HAVE BEEN FLATTENED RIGHT THERE, BUT SHE MANAGES TO KEEP STANDING IN THE CORNER BY HANGING ONTO THE ROPES! Honcho pulls her out of the corner and kicks her in the gut and locks her head BEFORE TAKING HER UP IN THE AIR! WHAT POWER BEING SHOWN BY HONCHO!
Gavin Kirkland: When your opponent is only 118 pounds, Honcho can keep Harper up there until the cows come home or until he gets bored, whichever comes first. He is just letting the blood rush to Harper’s head and he’s doing that because… simply because he can. Who’s gonna try to stop him right now. It certainly isn’t Harper.
Deadprez: Honcho decides that enough is enough and JUST DROPS HARPER TO THE MAT WITH THAT DELAYED VERTICAL SUPLEX! Now Honcho pulls Harper to the center of the ring before hitting the ropes–
Gavin Kirkland: HONCHO REBOUNDS AND DROPS ONE OF THOSE TREE TRUNK LEGS ACROSS HARPER’S THROAT! WHAT A SHOT! HARPER DOESN’T LOOK TO BE MOVING AS HONCHO LOOKS THE LEG FOR ANOTHER COVER!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWOOOOOO!
THHHHHHHRRRRRRREEEEE–
Eve: HARPER LEE MANAGES TO KICK OUT AT TWO! Harper might not be one of the most popular members of the Showdown rosters, but she is one of the most tenacious wrestlers in EAW. It’s going to take a lot more to put Harper down for good.
Deadprez: I think Honcho realizes it too because he pulls Harper back up and whips her against the ropes. Harper rebounds as Honcho fires a clothesline, BUT HARPER DUCKS IT! Harper hits the ropes on the opposite side and rebounds–
Gavin Kirkland: BUT SHE RUNS RIGHT INTO A BIG BOOT FROM HUNNID HONCHO! HARPER TURNED INSIDE OUT AFTER THAT BOOT! Harper Lee needs to reach into that bag of tricks before it’s too late.
Eve: You can say that again, but what can she do against a mountain of a competitor like that? Right now Harper is barely moving on the mat as Honcho once again brings Harper to her feet.
Deadprez: Harper looks to be on spaghetti legs as HONCHO HOISTS HER UP IN THE AIR! WHAT A MILITARY PRESS BY HUNNID HONCHO! HONCHO IS HAVING FUN RIGHT NOW USING HIS POWER TO KEEP HARPER UNDER CONTROL!
Gavin Kirkland: Honcho looking to set up Harper for that Military Press Powerslam. Honcho tries to drop Harper into the powerslam position, BUT SHE GETS FREE!
Eve: HARPER SLIDES OUT OF THE MILITARY PRESS AND DOWN HIS BACK! HARPER LOOKING FOR A SUNSET FLIP! HONCHO IS OFF BALANCE AND HE IS ABOUT TO FALL—
Gavin Kirkland: HONCHO CATCHES HIS BALANCE AND HE JUMPS UP LOOKING FOR A STANDING BANZAI DROP, BUT HARPER GETS AWAY AND HONCHO LANDS HARD ON THE CANVAS! Honcho could have broken a few boards under the ring with that landing.
Deadprez: Gavin, that’s not nice, but this is the first time that Honcho has been off his feet and Harper looks ready to take advantage of the situation. Harper quickly scrambles to her feet and hits the ropes.
Gavin Kirkland: Harper rebounds AND DELIVERS A DROPKICK RIGHT TO HONCHO’S FACE BUT HE DOESN’T FALL! Harper doesn’t relent as he hits the ropes again AND THIS TIME SHE HITS A SLIDING ELBOW SMASH AFTER THE REBOUND!
Deadprez: BUT HONCHO IS STILL UP! HARPER IS STILL ON HONCHO AS SHE HITS THE ROPES ONE MORE TIME! THIS TIME HARPER HITS A RUNNING METEORA AND THAT TAKES HONCHO DOWN! Harper sees a golden opportunity as she manages to stack Honcho up and roll him up for the cover!
ONNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWOOOOOO!
TTTHHHHHHRRRREEEEEEEE!
Eve: HONCHO ROLLS THROUGH AND GETS THE SHOULDER UP! HOW CLOSE WAS THAT! WHAT A FLURRY OF OFFENSE FROM THE CAPTAIN! Harper is still staying on Honcho as she mounts the rapper–
Gavin Kirkland: LOOK AT THE FISTS FLYING! HARPER IS JUST TRYING TO BEAT THE CRAP OUT OF HIM AS MUCH AS SHE CAN WITH HIM DOWN! Hold on! What is she doing now?
Deadprez: SHE’S BITING! HARPER IS BITING HONCHO! The referee doesn’t like it as he is admonishing Harper to stop biting before they start the count.
Eve: The ref reaches four and Harper stops so she doesn’t risk disqualification on five. Now she’s trying to change her strategy AS SHE STOMPS THE CRAP OUT OF HONCHO’S KNEE! That might be the best thing for Harper to do is to take away one of his legs.
Gavin Kirkland: Harper is still stomping on that leg before she KICKS HONCHO IN THE RIBS! That shot sends Honcho onto his stomach. That gives Harper a chance to grab that leg she has been kicking AND SHE APPLIES THE DEVIL’S FRUIT!
Eve: CALF CRUSHER SUBMISSION BY HARPER LEE AND HARPER IS LOOKING TO MAKE HUNNID HONCHO TAP OUT! THE REFEREE IS RIGHT THERE MAKING SURE THAT THEY SEE IF HUNNID WANTS TO GIVE IT UP!
Deadprez: I highly doubt that Hunnid will tap out, but it could happen. You can see the annoyance on his face with the damage his leg and knee has taken from Harper, BUT HUNNID ROLLS OVER AND JUST STARTS KICKING HARPER RIGHT IN THE HEAD!
Gavin Kirkland: SHE DOESN’T TAKE VERY MANY OF THOSE KICKS BEFORE SHE LETS THE SUBMISSION GO! Harper might have been knocked loopy or even knocked out after those direct kicks to the head. She rolls away as much as she can from Honcho as Honcho gets onto a knee.
Eve: He looks like he is waiting for Harper to get back to her feet. Harper is still looking groggy, but is slowly making it back to her feet and Honcho has anticipation clear in his eyes as Harper is finally back up. Honcho now takes off–
Gavin Kirkland: HONCHO JUST TACKLED HARPER TO THE GROUND! HONCHO CALLS THAT THE “HONCHO DELUXE”! WHAT A TACKLE BY HONCHO! HARPER LEE WAS TURNED INSIDE OUT YET AGAIN AS HUNNID HONCHO GOES FOR THE COVER. THIS COULD BE ENOUGH RIGHT HERE!
ONNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!
TWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOO!
THHHHHHRRRRRREEEEEEE!!
Deadprez: FOOT ON THE ROPE! HARPER LEE GOT HER FOOT ON THE ROPE AND THAT STOPS THE COUNT! Honcho thought he had the win right there, but the referee was in perfect position to see the rope break. Honcho didn’t like that at all.
Gavin Kirkland: HE IS GETTING IN THE REFEREE’S FACE! WHAT IS HE DOING? This is the inexperience of Hunnid Honcho. He is arguing with the referee when she should be finishing Harper Lee off and winning the match. He is giving Harper too much time to recover.
Eve: Honcho is done arguing with the referee as he goes back to Harper Lee, WHO JUST DELIVERED A DOUBLE MULE KICK INTO HONCHO’S GUT! THAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN A LOW BLOW, AND IF IT WAS, SHE GOT AWAY WITH ONE RIGHT THERE!
Gavin Kirkland: Honcho was doubled over after that kick and Harper takes advantage of the situation as she goes behind Hunnid Honcho and manages to take him down with a schoolboy rollup. Will Harper steal it here?
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOO!
Deadprez: WAIT A SECOND! HARPER HAS A HANDFUL OF TIGHTS RIGHT THERE! THE REFEREE IS OUT OF POSITION AND CAN’T SEE THE EXTRA LEVERAGE HARPER HAS ON HONCHO! HARPER REALLY MIGHT STEAL IT HERE!
THHHHRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEE!
Eve: HONCHO KICKED OUT RIGHT AS THE REFEREE WAS COMING DOWN FOR THE THREE COUNT AND HARPER IS A LITTLE SHOCKED AT THAT! Even that little bit of extra leverage wasn’t enough to keep Honcho down and this match will continue. You gotta give it up to Honcho for putting up an amazing fight with the former Universal Women’s Champion.
Gavin Kirkland: Honcho was getting to his knees to get back to his feet AND HARPER LEE WITH A BICYCLE KNEE RIGHT TO THE NOSE! THAT HAS HONCHO’S EYES WATERING RIGHT THERE! Harper Lee hits the ropes looking to hit Honcho in the face again–
Deadprez: HONCHO JUST CLOBBERED WITH THAT CLOTHESLINE THAT HONCHO CALLS A CHIRAQLINE AND JUST LIKE THAT, HARPER LEE HAS BEEN STOPPED IN HER TRACKS! Honcho makes it back to his feet and brings Harper up as well.
Eve: Harper whipped into the corner by Honcho AND SHE IS SQUASHED AGAIN BY THAT RUNNING SPLASH! Honcho doesn’t let Harper fall as he grabs Harper AND JUST THROWS HER ALMOST INTO THE OTHER CORNER WITH THAT TWO HANDED THROW!
Deadprez: Harper Lee got some hangtime right there with that throw by Honcho and Honcho might be close to picking up a huge victory here tonight on Showdown as he watches Harper Lee get back to her feet.
Gavin Kirkland: Honcho waits for Harper to come out of the corner. He has some painful intentions on his mind. He wants to win this match in the worst way possible.
Deadprez: Harper walks right into Honcho WHO JUST DRIVES HER INTO THE CANVAS WITH THAT POWERFUL URANAGE! WHAT A THROW BY HUNNID HONCHO! HARPER LANDS HARD, BUT HONCHO ISN’T FINISHED!
Eve: He brings Harper Lee back to her feet before lifting her up and sitting her on the top turnbuckle! What does Honcho have in mind for Harper?
Gavin Kirkland: OH MY GAWD! HE CLIMBS UP ONTO THE SECOND ROPE AND HAS A FACELOCK ON HARPER! HE IS GOING TO SUPERPLEX HARPER LEE! OH THIS COULD FINISH HARPER OFF IF IT HITS.
Eve: HE’S TRYING TO GET HER UP, BUT SOMEHOW SHE BLOCKS IT. HONCHO TRIES AGAIN, BUT HARPER BLOCKS IT AGAIN! HARPER WITH A THUMB TO THE EYE AS SHE SLIDES OFF THE TOP TURNBUCKLE!
Gavin Kirkland: Harper hitting Honcho in the knees to get him off balance. Now Harper uses the momentum and a handful of tights TO PULL HONCHO OFF THE SECOND ROPE AND COUNTER THE SUPERPLEX WITH A MODIFIED POWERBOMB! HOLY CRAP! DID WE REALLY JUST SEE THAT?
Deadprez: OH MY GAWD! I DON’T BELIEVE THAT HARPER LEE DID THAT! SHE USED THE MOMENTUM AND ACTUALLY POWERBOMBED HUNNID HONCHO! NOW I’VE SEEN EVERYTHING! While we were stunned by the powerbomb, Harper went up to the second rope this time as she waits for Honcho to get back to his feet.
Gavin Kirkland: Hunnid is up AND HARPER LEE FROM THE SECOND ROPE AND SHE CAUGHT HONCHO RIGHT IN THE JAW WITH THAT STEP UP KNEE FROM THE SECOND ROPE AND HE WENT DOWN HARD! Harper takes a second to start delivering boot after boot anywhere and everywhere she can to cause more damage.
Eve: Harper is satisfied with what she did and she finds herself going right to the top rope. High rent district for Harper Lee as she waits for the slowly moving Hunnid Honcho to get back to his feet.
Deadprez: Harper has something in mind and she wants to finish off Honcho. Honcho was certainly feeling it after that knee to the jaw, but he has made it back to his feet AND HARPER JUMPS FROM THE TOP ROPE!
Eve: HARPER WENT FOR THE CROSSBODY OFF THE TOP ROPE BUT HONCHO CAUGHT HER! HONCHO RUNS FULL SPEED AND CRASHES HER BACK FIRST INTO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE! HARPER’S BACK TAKES SOME DAMAGE BEFORE HONCHO PUTS HARPER ON HIS SHOULDERS!
Gavin Kirkland: HONCHO HAS HARPER IN THE AIR YET AGAIN WITH THE MILITARY PRESS! It didn’t work the first time, but it did the second so who knows what will happen on the third attempt. Honcho drops Harper into powerslam position–
Deadprez: HONCHO TRYING FOR THAT MILITARY POWERSLAM FOR THE THIRD TIME , BUT HARPER SPINS OUT AS HONCHO WAS RUNNING AND HARPER LEE COUNTERS WITH A MODIFIED TORNADO DDT OUT OF NOWHERE! HONCHO WAS SPIKED ON THE TOP OF HIS HEAD!
Eve: Harper managed to keep Honcho down after that DDT. Right now Harper looks ready to take a gamble as he makes her way up to the top rope. Honcho is still down as Harper gets her footing and balance before she decides to fly–
Gavin Kirkland: HARPER LEE JUMPS FROM THE TOP ROPE LOOKING FOR THE DIVING SENTON, BUT HONCHO CAUGHT HER AS SHE LANDED! HE TOOK SOME DAMAGE BUT HE HAS HARPER IN A BEAR HUG BEFORE SHAKING HER AROUND LIKE A RAG DOLL!
Eve: Harper was just thrown to the ground like nothing before Honcho picks her up again and kicks her in the gut. Harper’s head is down for a second BEFORE HONCHO LIFTS HER UP AND JUST DRIVES HER BACK DOWN TO THE MAT WITH A SITOUT POWERBOMB! HONCHO STACKS HER UP FOR THE COVER? DOES HONCHO HAVE IT?
ONNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWOOOOOO!
THHHHHHHRRRRREEEEEE!
Gavin Kirkland: HARPER KICKED OUT! HOW IN THE WORLD DID SHE MANAGE THAT? SHE MUST BE TAPPING INTO HER FINAL STORAGE OF ENERGY TO EVEN PULL THAT OFF! Even Honcho is a little shocked that Harper kicked out. Regardless, this match continues.
Eve: Harper Lee is down and now Honcho takes advantage and drags Harper close to the corner. Now what is he doing? OH NO! COME ON! HONCHO IS GOING TO THE TOP ROPE! HE’S READY TO FINISH HARPER LEE OFF AND GET THE BIGGEST WIN OF HIS CAREER!
Deadprez: THAT’S 345 POUNDS COMING OFF THE TOP ROPE! THAT CAN CAUSE SOME SERIOUS DAMAGE! Honcho only goes to the top rope like that for one move. He is looking for his version of the frog splash that he calls the “Hip Hop Hippo Splash”. Harper still hasn’t moved as HONCHO JUMPS OFF THE TOP ROPE! FROG SPLASH ON THE WAY–
Eve: HARPER ROLLS OUT OF THE WAY AT THE LAST SECOND AND HONCHO MEETS NOTHING BUT THE MAT! THAT WAS MORE OF A HIP HOP HIPPO SPLAT! THAT WAS NOT A GOOD LANDING AS THE VETERAN INSTINCTS OF HARPER LEE ARE KICKING INTO OVERDRIVE AS SHE LOOKS TO FINISH HONCHO OFF AFTER THAT MISTAKE!
Deadprez: HARPER GRABS HONCHO’S ARM AND PULLS HIM BACK AS MUCH AS SHE CAN AND DRIVES HER FOOT INTO THE BACK OF HIS HEAD AND SENDING HIM FACE FIRST INTO THE MAT! THAT’S “SLEEPING ON THE FLOOR” BY HARPER LEE! CURB STOMP CONNECTS AND HONCHO MIGHT BE OUT AS HARPER USES WHAT’S LEFT OF HER STRENGTH TO ROLL HONCHO OVER AND HOOK THE LEG FOR THE COVER!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWOOOOOO!
THHHHHHHRRRRRRREEEEE!
(DING! DING! DING!)
(“Sweet Dreams” starts playing again as Harper rolls off of Hunnid as she makes it back to her feet. When she makes it back to her feet, she looks down and laughs at her fallen opponent.)
Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen! Here is your winner! HARPER LEE!
(The referee raises Harper’s arm in victory as the crowd pretty much boos Harper out of the building. Harper just has a huge smirk on her face knowing that she’s got a few people mad with her win as she brushes them off and exits the ring.)
Deadprez: What a good match we just witnessed right here. It was a classic David vs. Goliath situation here. Hunnid had the match in his control for a good amount of time, but it was the experience and the creativity of Harper Lee that gave her the win.
Eve: You have to believe that Harper Lee is going to be feeling good about this win, considering it gives her a little bit of momentum as heads into Road to Redemption in Beijing with a chance to become Number One Contender for the National Elite Championship.
Gavin Kirkland: You can’t take anything away from Hunnid Honcho, either. He might have come up short, but he showed that he can most definitely hang in the ring with the likes of Harper Lee. He should take this experience and use it to fuel him for Road to Redemption.
Deadprez: That’s very true. If he keeps it up, Hunnid Honcho can no doubt be a force in EAW. These two put on a great match here tonight, but at Road to Redemption next week, it’s going to be a six person Scramble match and the winner earns themself a National Elite Championship match. Once again, congratulations to Harper Lee and we will be back with more Showdown action!
(The final shot shows Harper Lee standing at the top of the ramp still with that huge smirk on her face, looking down at Hunnid Honcho, who is sitting up now in the ring looking up at Harper with a look of frustration on his face as the camera cuts elsewhere.)
(We cut to the backstage area, where Kyra Phillips stood for four of the participants in the Extreme Enigma Battle Royal. Lucas Johnson, Komatsu Ogawa, Major Michael Scott Connor and Hans Grayson stood patiently, and surprisingly all together. Kyra surveying the scene before starting to speak.)
Kyra Phillips: Guys, you’ve joined me here together at this time… I’m confused, and I’m sure the fans are too.
Lucas Johnson: No confusion, we all just want to get our points across.
Komatsu Ogawa: Some need more than others.
Major Michael Scott Connor: You can’t be saying that about us. We are all Showdown representatives after all.
Komatsu Ogawa: We are… but we all want that prize.
Lucas Johnson: You saying you want it more than me Komatsu?
Komatsu Ogawa: Not at all…
Kyra Phillips: Hans? You’re not saying much?
Hans Grayson: I’m the new guy, it’s not like anyone is going to listen to me is it?
Lucas Johnson: So you’re accusing us of ignorance? Just because you’ve been here five minutes doesn’t mean you get to preach. This is an Elimination match, and a huge opportunity
Hans Grayson: An opportunity I have been given just as much as you.
Komatsu Ogawa: As filler, nothing more.
Kyra Phillips: So Lucas… you intend to win this match?
Lucas Johnson: I intend to win every match I compete in, especially when there is a unique opportunity on offer. I’ve been here more than just a few moments, I’ve paid my dues every single year and never been given the chances I have earned. Same can be said for Komatsu, so hearing these two bleat on, it kinda gets my goat a little
Komatsu Ogawa: Yes, my goat too. It’s about time that Komatsu Ogawa put some respect on my name. This match gives me that chance to shine.
Lucas Johnson: Even if you can’t win
Komatsu Ogawa: We will see.
Kyra Phillips: Major, you have become a fan favorite in a short space of time
Lucas Johnson: A kiss ass you mean
Major Michael Scott Connor: There is nothing wrong with showing honor towards the sport. If you were a former military man, you’d understand what honor means, like Hans here.
Lucas Johnson: Are you saying I lack honor
Komatsu Ogawa: I think he is.
Hans Grayson: It only takes a brain cell to figure out Komatsu. Just like it takes the same brain cell to understand it doesn’t matter if I’ve been here five minutes or not, I’m still capable of upsetting the apple cart and taking home the prize.
Major Michael Scott Connor: Very well said, and having the respect of your peers isn’t a weakness Lucas, it’s a privilege. But again, you haven’t ever really been respected have you, because you haven’t given anyone any reason.
Kyra Phillips: Obviously, there are representatives from other brands in this match…
Lucas Johnson: So what, it changes nothing
Komatsu Ogawa: We still win, no question about it.
Major Michael Scott Connor: It’s that arrogance that I am talking about. To not understand your opponents is foolish.
Lucas Johnson: So now I have no honor, AND I’m foolish. Bro, you are fixing for a beat down right now if you don’t shut your mouth.
Komatsu Ogawa: Damn right, you wanna go to Sarge?
Lucas Johnson: He’s a major bro…
Major Michael Scott Connor: STOP!!!
(Lucas and Komatsu look surprised, Kyra as well who backs off a little, sensing an altercation.)
Lucas Johnson: Who the hell are you shouting at, get back in your lane.
Hans Grayson: I’d say he’s shouting at you Lucas, and it’s my guess with what he is about to say, you’d do well to listen.
Lucas Johnson: That a threat?
Hans Grayson: Call it advice… but like I say, you won’t listen.
Kyra Phillips: Major… you had something to say?
Major Michael Scott Connor: Yes I did. Of course, we all want to win, this is an amazing opportunity. But first, we need to focus on the bigger threat.
(Lucas and Komatsu look confused.)
Hans Grayson: If you would allow me Major?
(Major Michael Scott Connor motions for him to continue.)
Hans Grayson: La Familia… they have been jumping people for the last few weeks, and you can be certain they have no intention of representing our brand.
Major Michael Scott Connor: That’s right, all he wants to do is hurt OUR chances, and that needs to stop, right now.
Voice: Is that right?
(The camera pans out, revealing Roberto De La Rosa flanked by La Familia, Diego and Javier both holding baseball bats threateningly.)
Roberto De La Rosa: Don’t let me interrupt your interesting conversation. Please…continue.
Lucas Johnson: I should kick your ass after what you did last week.
Roberto De La Rosa: Yes, you’re probably right, but how close do you think you’d get?
(Diego and Javier take a step forward.)
Komatsu Ogawa: You think they are going to stop us?
Roberto De La Rosa: Actually, yes I do but you are more than welcome to try. See, you might be complaining about what has been happening the last few weeks, but this is only an example of what Roberto De La Rosa and La Familia can achieve when we are united. You can all speak as much as you like about how you are going to win the Extreme Enigma Battle Royal, but the truth is there is only one of us standing here right now who is capable, because this is only the beginning. I’ve been treated like dirt since day one in this company, and all that is about to change. Esto es mi venganza.
(Lucas and Komatsu step forwards, about to attack anyway and regardless of the danger. However the Major and Hans step in front of them, placing a hand on their chest.)
Major Michael Scott Connor: Not here.
Hans Grayson: Not now.
(Lucas and Johnson back down, recognizing what they were putting at risk, Major Michael Scott Connor then turning to face La Familia.)
Major Michael Scott Connor: We will see you at Road to Redemption.
(The four of them then walk away, Diego and Javier looking at each other. Roberto De La Rosa with a scowl etched on his forehead.)
(The scene transitions to the Road to Redemption Rewind 2021)
Gina Romano: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN… THE FOLLOWING CONTEST IS THE SHOWDOWN EXTREME ELIMINATION CHAMBER MATCH… AND IT’S FOR THE ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP!!!!
( The crowd pops off and rightfully so. The participants in the Showdown Chamber didn’t hold anything back this week when it came time to promote it. Kassidy Heart’s five opponents made it perfectly clear that they believe her time as Answers World Champion is done and in turn, she made it known how little she respects their opinion on that. )
Gina Romano: The match will begin with two Elitists inside the ring, while the other four competitors are locked inside of their pods. Every five minutes, a randomly selected pod door will open, allowing another Elitist to enter the match! The process will continue until every Elitist has entered the match! Once an Elitist is pinned, submitted, or knocked out, they must exit the chamber! The last person remaining will be the Answers World Champion!
( “M3tamorphosis” by Playboi Carti ft. Kid Cudi begins to blast across the PA system and the familiar white lights that belong to the one and only Impact begin to flicker across the entire stadium. )
Gina Romano: INTRODUCING FIRST… FROM SEATTLE, WASHINGTON… WEIGHING IN AT 221 POUNDS… HE IS THE ‘MOST WATCHED CHAMPION IN HISTORY’… IMPACT!!!!
( Impact steps onto the stage and like always, he doesn’t bother focusing on the crowd. The only thing on his mind is winning this chamber and becoming the 10-time world champion. )
Deadprez: I can’t front. I’m stoked for this chamber. This could very well be the night that we crown a brand new Answers World Champion and if I were a betting man, that man right there is someone I put my money on. No one has the experience Impact does in this kind of match with stakes this high, and look at what’s in his hands.
( The camera focuses in on the black bag in Impact is carrying. )
Eve: I won’t even begin to speculate on what could be inside that bag. Impact could literally have anything in there and his fellow competitors aren’t going to know what it is until he decides to open it. That’s pretty smart, but come on. Impact is one of the most intelligent competitors in EAW history. He’s absolutely going to come into this match with more than one trick up his sleeve.
Gavin Kirkland: :drakelike: All I know is that tonight is the night. Whether it’s Impact and his mysterious black bag, or my God Emperor, who will forever be the God Emperor in my eyes, or someone else, we will FINALLY have a new Answers World Champion. We’ve been forced to endure Kassidy Heart’s reign of terror for way to long, and tonight it comes to an end.
( Impact gets into the ring and the referee in charge of the match points to one of the open pods. Impact takes his time getting inside and getting settled, but after a moment, his music fades out.)
( “Ambitionz az a Ridah” by Tupac begins to play and every single fan inside of Lucas Oil Stadium unloads a barrage of cheers and whistles. )
Gina Romano: AND HIS OPPONENTS… FIRST!!! RESIDING IN THE POON PALACE IN MIAMI, FLORIDA… WEIGHING IN AT 210 POUNDS… HE IS ‘LA PANTERA SEXUAL’… TLA!!!!
Eve: Well judging from the reaction of the crowd, I think we know who the fans want to see leave this chamber as the Answers World Champion! TLA will forever be one of the most popular Elitists in EAW history, and if he does win tonight, imagine how big the celebration party will be!!!
Gavin Kirkland: :drakelike: Hell, I’ll throw the party myself if he takes the title from that yeast infected cunt who’s got it now. I just hope that at some point tonight we can see TLA use those bolt cutters and start cutting away pieces of Kassidy’s rotting body.
Deadprez: Damn man. She never did anything to you except challenge Jamie O’Hara to a match.
Gavin Kirkland: :mjcry: And we all see how that worked out.
( TLA is in the ring now, and he is holding up the bolt cutters that were referenced by the commentary team. They have customized and colored to look like the Mexican flag, and as we all know, TLA is not shy about showing off his heritage. It’s something he is extremely proud of. He takes in the reaction of the crowd, patting his heart, and giving them all the love right back before he lets the referee direct him towards his pod. )
( ‘Stigmata’ by Grandson kicks up across the sound system next, and the fans continue to cheer for this next man. After all, he is the one that suffered an extremely heartbreaking and rather humbling loss back at Reasonable Doubt. )
Gina Romano: INTRODUCING NEXT… EDMONTON, ALBERTA, CANADA… WEIGHING IN AT 224 POUNDS… HE IS THERON NIKOLAS!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: :blessed: :blessed: :blessed: AND HERE COMES THE SOON TO BE KINGSLAYER! THE MAN I BELIEVE WILL BE OUR NEXT ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION! THERON NIKOLAS!!!! KNEEL BITCHES!!! GET DOWN ON YOUR KNEES AND KNEEL!!!!
Eve: Absolutely not. No one is going to kneel, but I will say this, Gavin. If there was ever someone who had something to prove tonight, it’s that man who is making his way down to the ring. I have never seen Theron Nikolas so focused and so determined to get the job done, and I think everyone needs to keep their eyes on him tonight.
Deadprez: And if anyone had any doubts about Theron forgetting what happened to him at Reasonable Doubt, look no further than the barbed wire he has in his hands right now. I spoke to him earlier today and that’s the same barbed wire the champion used to try and sever Theron’s arm with. Tonight, he looks to not only return the favor, but to bring King Kass’ world crashing down around her.
( Theron takes his time getting into the chamber and surveying the scene around him. He clutches the barbed wire in his hand before heading towards his pod and letting the referee lock him inside. )
( “Monster” by Kanye West is the next theme song to play and the fans don’t care to hear this at all. Their booing nearly drowns out Gina’s introduction. )
Gina Romano: AND NEXT!!! FROM SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA… WEIGHING IN AT 139 POUNDS… SHE IS THE UNDEFEATED ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION… ‘THE MAULER’ KASSIDY HEART!!!!
Deadprez: Right before we came on the air tonight, Hurricane Hawk randomly selected the entrance order for our competitors tonight. It was apparently a rather nasty scene backstage when the champion found out she would not be starting the match and she stormed off in a rage, vowing that Hurricane Hawk would come to regret the decision to have her locked inside of a pod.
Eve: Earlier in the week, we found out that Kassidy Heart would not be bringing a weapon inside of the chamber, but guys… she’s not exactly walking out here empty-handed and I’m pretty sure this is a direct result of Hurricane Hawk exercising his authority over the entrance order and putting his foot down :lupe:
( Kassidy, who is clutching the Answers World Championship in her right hand, has something else all together in her left. )
Gavin Kirkland: :comeagain: IS THAT A FUCKING CLAW HAMMER?
Deadprez: Sure is! Apparently Kassidy snatched it from one of the tool boxes backstage and no one was able to grab it from her before she walked here :lupe:
Gavin Kirkland: Shades of Ed Kemper, the notorious serial killer who finally fell off the deep end and bludgeoned his own mother to death with a claw hammer and then decapitated her while she slept. I hope after this cunt loses the title night, someone locks her the fuck up and throws away the key.
( Kassidy enters the ring and immediately strikes Theron’s pod with the hammer. All Theron does in response is dangle the barbed wire in front of her. Kassidy takes several deep breaths before looking wildy at Impact and TLA. She reluctantly hands over the Answers World Championship, but the referee has to force Kassidy inside of her pod. The second the door locks, the champ sinks down to her haunches and buries her face in her hands. )
Deadprez: Well… that’s interesting.
( Of course, once Kassidy’s music fades, the whole crowd is forced to wait for a few precious seconds. They know exactly who is going to start the match now, and they’re more than ready. Finally, ‘Survivors Guilt’ by Dave begins to play and the crowd boo once again. )
Gina Romano: AND NEXT… FROM TOWER HAMLETS… LONDON… WEIGHING IN AT 240 POUNDS… HE IS ‘ THE MAN OF ALWAYS’… CHARLIE MARR!!!!
( Charlie Marr walks onto the stage and this time, Veena Adams does not join him. No doubt she’s somewhere watching backstage, hoping her man brings home his second ever world championship. Charlie Marr proudly holds up his weapon and it’s literally a prosthetic mannequin head that looks like Kassidy. )
Gavin Kirkland: Holy shit, you can barely tell the difference between the plastic head and the real one.
Deadprez: :mjlol: Nevertheless, Charlie Marr enters this match knowing damn well he has what it takes to completely dominate an Extreme Elimination Chamber. When Charlie was the defending champion a few years ago on Voltage, he either directly or indirectly eliminated everyone before Malcolm Jones gave the win to Andrea Valentine. It’s been a very tumultuous season thus far for Charlie Marr but as we all know, the chamber is the great equalizer. It can make you, or it can break you, and someone with Charlie Marr’s knowledge of the chamber has one hell of an advantage in this match.
Eve: I have no doubt about that, Deadprez, and someone as dangerous as Charlie shouldn’t be overlooked. I know he’s had his struggles recently, but what top Elitist doesn’t? If this sport were easy, everyone would be employed, but that just isn’t how it works. Charlie shoulders adversity so well, and honestly, it’s just a matter of time before he gets a much needed win that propels him back into the spotlight.
( Charlie, who is now inside the ring, strolls over to Kassidy’s pod and gives her a mocking little wave. The champion, who is still resting on her haunches, looks at Charlie with a glare. He takes the mannequin head and places it near his crotch, making a lewd gesture towards Kassidy. The champ immediately jumps to her feet and slams against her pod, dying for the door to open so she can get her hands on someone. )
Charlie Marr: ( off-mic) :mjlol2: Stupid whore.
( Finally, Charlie’s music fades out and the last competitor’s theme begins to play. The audience erupts, almost as loudly as they did for TLA, as “You Know My Name” by Chris Cornell begins to play. )
Gina Romano: AND LAST… FROM NEW YORK… WEIGHING IN AT 231 POUNDS… HE IS ‘THE NEXT LEVEL’… ADAM LUCAS!!!
( As the former Hardcore Champion steps on the stage, the camera zooms in to get a good look at his face. There is no fear in the eyes of Adam Lucas, in fact, he is smiling. This is first ever world championship opportunity and he plans to make the absolute most out of it. )
Eve: A LOT of people believe that Adam Lucas could very well be the dark horse when it comes to winning this match.
Gavin Kirkland: Like we said during Charlie’s entrance, the Elimination Chamber itself is the great equalizer, Eve, and sure, Adam Lucas could pull off the mother of all upsets tonight. All five of his opponents have been in this match before. All five of them had headlined countless free-per-views in the past. All of them know what it feels like to fight for the right to call themselves the world champion. All of that is new territory for Adam Lucas but I’ll be honest. I think this match is a little too big for him.
Deadprez: I completely disagree. The less you know about this match, the better. Adam is going in blind with nothing but faith, and unlike the others, he has nothing to lose. That man right there is the most dangerous person inside that chamber and with that baseball bat in his hands, he is going to make a big impression here tonight.
Gavin Kirkland: :francis: That is a Louisville Slugger signed by the great Mickey Mantle. The fact Adam Lucas is dumb enough to bring a piece of memorabillia to the ring that is worth close to 70,000 dollars tells me everything I need to know about his chances in this match. However…. #ANYONEBUTKINGCUNTIDY!
( Adam Lucas gets into the ring and nods his head towards the crowd. He is obviously impressed with what he’s seeing right now and the way the crowd is reacting. This is a huge match for him, and he feels so prepared for this moment. )
(The crowd is electric as Adam Lucas and Charlie Marr face off one on one while the rest of the Chambers are now closed. In his hand Adam holds the Louisville Slugger, Charlie Marr with a mannequin head that looks just like Kassidy Heart. The fans are on their feet in anticipation for the Showdown Answers World Championship Chamber…
… and the referee calls for the bell and the start of the match!)
(DING!!!!!!!!!! DING!!!!!!!! DING!!!!!!!!!)
Deadprez: And here we go! The Answers World Championship Chamber has begun, these tow men are going to have to go the distance if they are to become the champion and dethrone the woman that has broken records and has the opportunity right now to come in later and really help her chances against five of the best!
Eve: These Elitists have waited for so long to finally get the opportunity in stepping into what is the most unrelenting structure known in the EAW. Charlie Marr and Adam Lucas are going to have to dig deep and after those initial five minutes, that is when the chambers start to open one by one!
Gavin Kirkland: ANYONE BUT KASSIDY! But now she is in the Pod and if she comes out last!? They will never get the title off her!
(Charlie Marr and Adam Lucas continue to stare at each other while Theron, Impact, TLA and Kassidy Heart are all locked in their chambers. Lucas and Charlie push each other and ….)
Deadprez: Adam swings the bat! Charlie ducks and he throws the Head of Kassidy, don’t know if I am going to get used to that calling it here tonight, right into the midsection of Lucas! He stumbles back some, Charlie with another hit and now he takes a few steps back…. TRIES TO RAM HIM WITH THE HEAD! NO! ADAM LUCAS DUCKS AND CHARLIE RUNS INTO A SUPERKICK!
Eve: ADAM GRABS THE BET, HE LOCKS IT IN, RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP WITH THE BAT ON CHARLIE MARR! MARR IS DOWN! ADAM LUCAS PICKS HIM UP BY THE BEARD AND THROWS HIM OVER THE TOP ROPE AND HE LANDS HARD ON THE CHAMBER FLOOR!
Gavin Kirkland: They are not taking it easy with each other to start this match and the first five minutes they could both be done for before the first Chamber open! Stud muffin Adam though! HE IS NOW CHOKING CHARLIE WITH THE BAT! DRIVING IT INTO HIS NECK AND EVERYONE KNOWS THAT ADAM LUCAS WANTS TO BE A WORLD CHAMPION AND GET THATR SOOO GOOD WORLD CHAMPION SEX TONIGHT FROM THICCANY!
Eve: Really Gavin!? Pay him no attention! Adam is trying to wear Charlie down pretty quickly here! RUNNING TOWARD THE ROPES, HE LEAPS OFF WITH A SENTON ON CHARLIE! ADAM IS NOW ON TOP OF CHARLIE, LADNIGN THOSE LEFT AND RIGHTS! MARR DROPPED THE HEAD AND HE IS TRYING TO REACH FOR IT BUT ADAM IS NOT BACKING DOWN FROM IT! HE KEEPS UNLOADING ON CHARLIE’S FACE, HE MIGHT BE ABLE TO ELIMINATE MARR LONG BEFORE ANYONE IS IN THE CHAMBER!
Deadprez: And that is a great strategy! Keep those that are waiting in the chamber to a limit! Adam is back up, grabbing Marr, placing him in a headlock, walking over to TLA’s Chamber! Adam BASHES MARR’S HEAD INTO THE PLEXIGLASS! TLA WITH HIS TONGUE STICKING OUT ENJOYING THE EARLY GOINGS HERE! ADAM WITH ANOTHER VICIOUS SLAM! HE IS DRIVING THE HEAD OF THE MARR REPEATEDLY OVER AND OVER!
(TLA is hopping up and down loving every minute of this carnage. The sweat spots left, now Adam drives the head of Marr smearing it across the glass….)
Eve: MARR WITH A BACK ELBOW TO THE STOMACH! AN ANOTHER! MARR WITH SOME OFFENSE AND HE SMASHES ADAM’S HEAD INTO THE PLEXIGLASS! ADAM BUCKLES OVER AND MARR GRABS HIM BY THE HAIR, HE THROWS ADAM INTO THE CHAMBER! FALLING HARD ON THE CAGE FLOOR! NOW IT’S CHARLIE MARR IN CONTROL, GRABBING THE HEAD AND HE THROWS IT RIGHT AT ADAM’S HEAD AS HE3 WAS GETTING BACK TO HIS FEET!
PLONK!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: That head bounced off Adam like a basketball hitting Xander Payne in Summer School Recess! That may have caused a concussion! Adam is wobbly on his feet, he is dazed and confused, Charlie picks him up, SPINEBUSTER ON THE STEEL! ADAM SCREAMS IN PAIN AND LOOK AT CHARLIE NOW, HE WALKS UP TO TLA’S CHAMBER AND SLAMS HIS HANDS AGAINST THE PLEXIGLASS! TLA IS JUST GLARING AT HIM BUT CHARLIE TURNS BACK AND ADAM IS DOWN, WAIT… CHARLIE LOOKING UP, HE IS CLIMBING THE CAGE PART WAY…..
Deadprez: FLYING ELBOW RIGHT ON TOP OF ADAM’S CHEST! CHARLIE MARR NOW SHOWING HIS VICIOUSNESS AND HE DRAGS ADAM, LEANING HIM THIS TIME AGAINST THE CHAMBER OF THERON NIKOLAS! THERON IS LOOKING ON WITHOUT ANY EMOTION! CHARLIE MARR GRABS THE KASSIDY HEAD; ADAM’S LEGS ARE SPLIT OPEN….
Gavin Kirkland: Oh, the horror! :lupe
Eve: CHARLIE WITH THE WIND UP AND HE THROWS THE HEAD!
SMACK!
Eve: RIGHT IN BETWEEN THE LEGS OF ADAM LUCAS AND HE MAY HAVE ALREADY BEEN TAKEN OUT OF THIS! BELLOWING IN PAIN AND LOOK AT CHARLIE MARR!
(Marr lets out a scream, slamming the Chamber glasses of Theron and TLA, the closest to him. Adam slumps down, lying on the steel floor as Charlie then runs at full speed….)
Deadprez: HIGH RUNNING KNEE! CHARLIE MARR CRUSHED ADAM’S HEAD INTO THE PLEXIGLASS, HE DRAGS HIM OUT, ROLLING ADAM INTO THE RING AND GOING FOR THE COVER! WE COULD HAVE THE FIRST ELIMINATION OF THE NIGHT!
ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TWO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: KICK OUT BY THE GOAT! No matter how bad Charlie Marr wants to take him down, he will not stay down though and now you can see the desperation with Charlie Marr! He wants to eliminate Adam before the next Chamber opens, it could be TLA and then he could find himself on a two on one! Charlie picks up Adam, whipping him into the ropes, he charges in with a clothesline, NO! Adam ducks, he springs off the ropes, Charlie turns, FLYING FOREARM BY ADAM LUCAS! THE GOAT IS BACK!
Eve: ADAM IS NOW REACHING OVERF AND GRABBING HIS LOUSIVILLE SLUGGER, LOOKING AROUND AT IMPACT, KASSIDY HEART BOTH WATCHING, THE WORLD CHAMPION PACING IN HER POD. ADAM RUNS RIGHT AT CHARLIE AND SWINGS FOR THE FENCES! CHARLIE BUCKLES OVER AFTER THE HARD SWING ON HIS STOMACH AND NOW CRACKING IT OVER HIS BACK! CHARLIE FALLS TO HIS KNEES AND ADAM WINDS UP AGAIN AND RUNNING AT HIM, FORWARD DROPKICK HOLDING THE BAT UNDER HIS BOOTS! BASEMENT DROPKICK ON HIS FACE!
(Charlie holds his face in agony, writhing in pain, as the other members of the Chamber look on, waiting in anticipation to get in the ring. Adam looks around, holding the bat up as the crowd cheers.)
Deadprez: You want to talk about two men that have laid it all on the line in the early goings of this match and they do not care knowing that in just a few moments there will be the third participant and when they enter the fray, when they come in it will change the dynamic and the complexity of this match! Adam though is buying himself some time, he has one eye on the chamber pods, one eye on Charlie and his Spider sense better start to tingle because we are within a minute of the next pod opening up!
Eve: And that will change the complexion of the match, and then after that the next and the next, and before you know it, all hell has broken loose! Adam is putting some distance between himself and Charlie Marr, who is slowly getting back to his feet, Adam steps over the ropes, he waits, it could be that Buck Shot Lariat that we have seen use so many times over!
Gavin Kirkland: It’s actually a good strategy to get a seconds of rest. We are about to see this match blow up and the fans are starting to get antsy here!
(The crowd starts to chant, they want the next pod to open, and Adam knows it, but Charlie Marr is back on his feet, he jumps on the top rope, springing out with a crossbody block on Charlie and lands it but quickly rolls off, Charlie and Adam back on their feet, they charge in….)
Deadprez: DOUBLE CLOTHESLINE! THEY JUST DOUBLE CLOTHESLINED EACH OTHER AND WE ARE MERE SECONDS AWAY FROM THE FIRST POD OPENING! THIS IS THE WORST-CASE SCENARIO FOR EITHER ONE OF THESE TWO AND…. HERE WE GO!
(The crowd chants in unison with the timer….)
Crowd:
FIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FOUR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TWO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(Suddenly the arena goes dark, the lights start to shine on each of the pods, all four Elitists are ready to get into the ring and it finally stops on one….)
(BUZZ!!!!!!!!!!!)
(The Pod Opens and it is…..)
Eve: KASSIDY HEART! KASSIDY HEART IS IN AND THE WORLD CHAMPION HAS ENTERED THE CHAMBER!
(Kassidy quickly runs out of the Chamber with the claw hammer in hand, but she tucks it in the side of her tights and goes right after Adam Lucas! She starts kicking him while he is down, over and over, dropping to her knees, digging her nails into his eyes as he starts to scream in pain…)
Eve: KASSIDY IS TRYING TO GOUGE THE EYES OF ADAM LUCAS HERE! DIGGING THESE SHARP NAILS INTO HIS EYES! ADAM IS ROLLING AROUND OBVIOUSLY BLINDED AND NOW KASSIDY WITH CRUEL INTENTIONS IN HER EYES SLOWLY GETS TO HER FEET! SHE IS NOW TURNING HER ATTENTION TO CHARLIE MARR!
(Kassidy’s eyes shift to the mannequin head, with a sneer on her face she reaches over and grabs it, then turns to Charlie flipping the head in her hands up and down with a sadistic and sinister smile on her face, placing and wedging it right on the neck of Charlie’s chin and chest, then running against the ropes….)
Gavin Kirkland: OH, THAT BITCH! CURB STOMP AND SHE MAY HAVE JUST CRUSHED CHARLIE MARR’S LARYNX! CHARLIE MARR IS GASPING FOR AIR AS KASSIDY SMILES, TURNING BACK TO ADAM WHO IS TRYING TO GET BACK UP, SHE COMES UP FROM BEHIND…. LEAVE HIM ALONE!
Deadprez: GERMAN SUPLEX AND THEN ANOTHER AND THE THIRD A RELEASE ONE ON ADAM LUCAS! THE KASSPLODER! BOTH MEN ARE DOWN AND LOOK AT KASSIDY! HER EYES SAY TI ALL, SHE IS GLARING AT THE THREE REMAINING CHAMBERS! TLA, IMPACT AND THERON NIKOLAS ARE ALL WATCHING, WAITING TO GET INTO THIS MATCH! KASSIDY WALKS OVER TO MARR, SHE IS PICKING BOTH OF THESE MEN APART SO METHODICALLY AND NOW KASSIDY DRIVES HER BOOT INTO HIS NECK! USING THE ROPES AS LEVERAGE, THE WORLD CHAMPION KNOWS THAT SHE NEEDS TO ELIMINATE BOTH OF THESE COMPETITORS RATHER QUICKLY IN ORDER TO GET A SPECIFIC ADVANTAGE HERE!
Eve: The question is does she!? We have seen her slow instability start to form, I mean she has never had both oars in the water, that much is certain, but this woman’s brain right now is a submarine with screen doors, she is not right, and when are we going to see The Mauler? Has she already turned into that? This is that environment and Theron, Impact and TLA KNOW it, that is why they are ready for any of this! All of it is legal!
(Charlie is wailing, trying to reach anything while Kassidy continues to press that boot right into his neck! After a bit she starts to stomp away over and over, not stopping for one single second. She picks up Charlie Marr, whipping him into the ropes, he bounces back, and she strikes….
Deadprez: BICYCLE KNEE… NO! MARR DUCKS, SHE TURNS AND MARR WITH A KICK TO THE MIDSECTION, DDT! KASSIDY GOES DOWN HARD AND ROLLS OUT OF THE WAY AND CHARLIE GRABS THE HEAD, HE LOOKS AROUND TRYING TO CATCH A BREATH AS THE CROWD GIVES HIM A CHEER FOR WHAT HEW ABOUT TO DO! HE HAS IT AND KASSIDY IS USING THE ROPES TO GET BACK UP, CHARLIE SHOVES THE HEAD INTO HER FACE….
Charlie Marr: (Off Mic) NOW KITH!
Deadprez: AND NOW KASSIDY IS HEADBUTTED WITH HER OWN MANNEQUIN HEAD! KASSIDY STUMBLES BACK AND SHE DOESN’T NOTICE THAT ADAM LUCAS IS ON THE OUTSIDE TRYING TO SEE, HOLDING ON TO THE ROPES! KASSIDY TURNS…. BUCKSHOT LARIAT BY ADAM LUCAS AND KASSIDY GOES DOWN!
(Kassidy lies in between Charlie and Adam, both Elitists look at one another for a moment, then back down at Kassidy, then back at each other and nod……)
Gavin Kirkland: YES!!!!!!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ADAM LUCAS AND CHARLIE MARR ARE STOMPING A MUDHOLE IN KASSIDY HEART! THEY ARE WORKING TOGETHER TO TAKE HER DOWN! THIS IS BEAUTIFUL!
(Charlie and Adam are stomping away at Kassidy as the crowd roars…..)
Crowd: THIS IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!THIS IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: BEAT HER ASS!
Eve: Adam and Charlie stop, and they look at each other, yes seems like there is a truce right now and they pick up Kassidy by the hair, she is trying to fight back, knowing that the World Champion has been nearly impossible to defeat, they point at the Chamber wall….. ADAM AND CHARLIE SEND KASSIDY FLYING OVER THE ROPES AND SHE LANDS HARD ON THE CHAMBER FLOOR! BUT THEY ARE NOT DONE! PICKING HER UP AND THEY BOTH HAVE HER HOISTED ON THEIR SHOULDERS AND THEY LAUNCH KASSIDY HEADFIRST INTO THE STEEL!
(The cheers deafen the arena as Charlie Marr and Adam Lucas both nod, they know that the biggest threat in this match is Kassidy Heart. Adam goes to pick her up by the hair….)
Gavin Kirkland: SFDGJFDJHFGDAG! WHY CHARLIE!? THE HEADMASTER RITUAL ON ADAM LUCAS! WHY DID YOU TURN ON HIM CHARLIE!? WHY!? CHARLIE MARR NOW IS STANDING AND LOOK, WE ARE ONLY LESS THAN A MINUTE FROM THE NEXT CHAMBER OPENING!
(Charlie shrugs his shoulders after laying out Adam Lucas, he then turns his attention back to Kassidy, picking her up and smiling, when suddenly…..)
CRACK!!!!
Deadprez: KASSIDY HAD THAT CLAW HAMMER IN HER TIGHTS AND SHE JUST WALLOPED CHARLIE ACROSS THE FACE WITH IT AND HE CRUMBLED TO THE FLOOR LIKE A SACK OF POTATOES! KASSIDY IS NOW WAITING! LOOK AT HER, SHE IS BLEEDING FROM THE FOREHEAD SOME, BUT LOOK AT HER, AGAIN THIS WOMAN HAS A BLOODLUST THAT YOU ONLY SEE IN CERTAIN PEOPLE AND SHE IS STANDING OVER BOTH FALLEN MEN! WAIT….. HERE WE GO! THE NEXT POD IS ABOUT TO OPEN!
Crowd:
FIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FOUR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TWO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(Suddenly the arena goes dark, the lights start to shine on each of the pods, all three Elitists left are ready to get into the ring and it finally stops on one….)
(BUZZ!!!!!!!!!!!)
(With a huge smile across the face of Kassidy, The Pod Opens and it is with the roaring of the crowd….)
Eve: IT IS THERON NIKOLAS!!!!!
(Nikolas runs out of the chamber into the waiting arms of Kassidy as she swings the hammer, but he ducks, Theron turns and hits Kassidy with a stiff right and another….)
Eve: THERON GOING RIGHT AFTER KASSIDY HEART AND HE HAS THAT BARBED WIRE SHE USED ON HIM AT REASONABLE DOUBT TIED ON THE SIDE LIKE THE LASSO OF TRUTH! THERON IS GETTING THE UPPERHAND! FIST AFTER FIST AND HE HAS KASSIDY REELING! WHIPPING HER INTO THE ROPES, THERON CATCHES HER WITH A HUGE POWERSLAM AND NOW HE IS UNTYING THE BARBED WIRE! HE WANTS TO PUNISH KASSIDY! HE WANTS TO BRING HER BACK DOWN TO EARTH! HE DIDN’T FORGET WHAT HAPPENED AT REASONABLE DOUBT!
(Kassidy quickly tries to get to her feet, but Theron is stalking her, read to wrap the barbed wire around her neck if possible, but Kassidy crawls out of the ring, looking for her hammer that she dropped, Theron though is only focused on her and no one else. She finally gets to the wall of the cage standing her ground….)
Gavin Kirkland: YES! Kassidy has ran out of real estate and doesn’t have anywhere else to go! Come on Theron! Rip her apart!
Deadprez: Theron is stalking her and…. KASSIDY OUT OF NOWHERE TACKLED HIM DOWN AND NOW SHE IS LAYING THE FISTS ON THERON! CLAWING AT HIS EYES, WAIT… SHE IS TRYING TRO BITE HIM! DAWG, SHE IS GONNA EAT HIS NOSE! KASSIDY HAS BECOME A DAMN CANNIBAL! THERON THOUGH KICKS HER OFF! KASSIDY IS BACK UP AND SHE SEES ADAM’S BAT, GRABBING IT AND THERON DUCKS WITH A SWING AND A MISS, HE CHARGES HER AND RAMS KASSIDY INTO THE STEEL CHAMBER!
(Theron grabs her ankles, he then drags and swings Kassidy headfirst into the chamber wall as the crowd roars.)
Eve: Theron is now going for that barbed wired! He wants to take the World Champion out right now! He is not going to wait another second! Kassidy is in dire straits! She is pretty out of it right now and Theron picks her up by the hair, he goes TO WRAP THE BARBED WIRED AROUND HER NECK! SHE THOUGH IS FIGHTING IT! SHE HAS HER HANDS FIRMLY ON THE WIRE AND LOOK AT THE BLOOD FROM THE SPOKES IMBEDDING IN HER HANDS AS SHE TRIES TO HOLD IT OFF, THERON THOUGH IS TRYING HIS HARDEST TO GET IT AROUND HER NECK!
Gavin Kirkland: COME ON THERON! GET IT AROUND HER NECK AND MAKE HER PAY FOR IT! WE NEED A NEW ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION, DAMN IT! COME ON! HE ALMOST HAS IT, BUT THAT BITCH IS HOLDING ON THE WIRE, SHE IS TOTALLY BLEEDING FROM HER HANDS AND…..
Deadprez: ADAM LUCAS COMES OUT OF NOWHERE FROM THE TOP ROPE AND TAKES THERON AND KASSIDY OUT! ADAM LUCAS SOMEHOW WAS ABLE TO RECOVER AND HE RAN ACROSS THE RING AND WITH A SENTON TOOK BOTH OF THEM OUT THOUGH HE LANDED ON THE BARBED WIRE AND CUT HIS BACK UP A LITTLE! THIS HAS CHJANGED THE COMPLEXION OF THE MATCH AND ADAM IS KICKING THERON! HE IS KICKING KASSIDY! HE…. AND CHARLIE MARR NOW WITH A SUICIDE DIVE ON ADAM CRUSHING HIM INTO THE STEEL WALL!
Eve: Charlie picks up Kassidy, he goes to throw her into the empty pod but Kassidy reverses, Charlie stops at the plexiglass though pointing to thew side of his head, Charlie turns around…..
CRASH!!!!
Eve: KASSIDY HEART WITH A SPEAR AND SHE GOES THROUGH THE PLEXIGLASS ALONG WITH CHARLIE MARR! BOTH COMPETITORS JUST BROKE THE CHAMBER GLASS AND ARE COVERED IN IT!
Crowd: HOLY SHIT!!!! HOLY SHIT!!!! HOLY SHIT!!!!!!
Eve: Charlie Marr has been taking a beating and now he has been taken out by Kassidy Heart but at what cost!? There are still two chambers that need to open and one of them will be doing that shortly! Kassidy is bleeding from her hands and forehead! Charlie is just broken in half! Adam Lucas though I s back up and he goes to grab Theron, NO! Theron all over Lucas! HE STOPPED HIM FROM GETTING HIS REVENGE AND THERON IS INCENSED WITH PAYING KASSIDY HEART BACK AT EVERY COST AND JUNCTURE!
Gavin Kirkland: This is exactly what Kassidy needs! And it sucks! The bros are all turning on each other and Theron is wailing on Adam, picking him up and slamming Adam on the steel floor! We are not that far off from the next entrant, and it will be either Impact or TLA! Theron looks around and he finds the barbed wire, his fist his heavily taped, wrapping it around his fist and now as Adam gets up, THERON IS GOING TO TOWN ON ADAM’S FLESH! A PUNCH TO THE MIDSECTION! ANOTHER! WAIT…. HE IS GOING FOR ADAM’S NECK! THE INJURY HE SUFFERED AT REASONABLE DOUBT! THERON NIKOLAS IS A MAN OBSESSED AND WE ARE SEEING IT HERE WHEN ADAM STOPPED HIM FROM GETTING HIS REVENGE ON Kassidy Heart!
Deadprez: HE IS MIKE TYSON OUT THERE! FIST AFTER FIST AND ADAM IS JUST A BLOODY MESS RIGHT NOW! FALLING TO ONE KNEE AND THERON THOUGH ISN’T STOPPING, LIFTNG UP THE FIST AND ONE MORE RIGHT ON THE NECK OF ADAM AS HE STARTS TO BLEED, FALLING TO THE STEEL WHILE THERON THEN TURNS HIS EYES ON KASSIDY WHO IS UNDER THE PLEXIGLASS TRYING TO SLOWLY MOVE WITH CHARLIE AND…. UH OH GUYS…. THE TIMER! ANOTHER CHAMBER IS ABOUT TO OPEN!

(Suddenly the arena goes dark, the lights start to shine on each of the pods, the two Elitists left are ready to get into the ring and it finally stops on one….)
(BUZZ!!!!!!!!!!!)
(The chamber pod slowly opens and here comes……)
Eve: TLA!!!!! TLA!!!!! HE HAS ENTERED THE CHAMBER AND HE HAS THOSE MEXICAN FLAG BOLT CUTTERS AND WE DON’T KNOW WHY BUT HE POINTS AT THE CROWD WHO IS CHEERING HIM ON! TLA RUNS ACROSS THE RING JUST AS THERON TURNS FLYING BODYPRESS OVER THE ROPES WITH BOLT CUTTERS IN HAND LANDING ON THERON NIKOLAS AND WHAT A WAY TO ENTER THE MATCH! TLA RAINING DOWN FISTS ON THERON NIKOLAS! THE CROWD IS GOING WILD!
Crowd: TLA!!!!!!!!!! TLA!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TLA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: TLA ALL OVER NIKOLAS AND NOW HE GRABS THE GOD EMPEROR, THROWING HIM OVBER THE TOP ROPE AND HE LANDS IN THE RING! TLA IS ALL OVER THE PLACE, HE TAKES ADAM LUCAS AND WHIPS HIM RIGHT INTO THE STEEL POST, HE FLIES OVER INTO THE OPPOSITE CHAMBER! BLOOD SPLATTERED ALL OVER IT! NOW HE FOCUSES ON KASSIDY WHO IS SLOWLY GETTING UP, CHARLIE MARR IS STIRRING AND TLA WITH THOSE BOLT CUTTERS! KASSIDY GETS UP, SHE TURNS AND BOLT CUTTERS TO THE ABDOMEN! SHE BUCKLES OVER AND HE SLAMS THE BOLT CUTTERS ON HER BACK! KASSIDY BELLOWS IN PAIN, DROPPING TO HER KNEES BEFORE TLA TAKES A FEW STEPS BACK… SHINING WIZARD WITH THE BOLT CUTTERS ON HEART!
Crowd: THIS IS AWESOME!!!!! THIS IS AWESOME!!!!!! THIS IS AWESOME!!!!!!!

Eve: WE ARE ABOUT TO SEE A CASTRATION!!!!!
(TLA places the bolt cutters on the crouch of Charlie Marr who is looking down wide-eyed screaming. TLA has it latched in…)
Gavin Kirkland: HE IS ABOUT TO MAKE CHARLIE INTO CHARLOTTE! I CAN’T WATCH THIS ANYMORE!
Deadprez: Dawg! Come on! Not like this TLA! NOT LIKE……

Gavin Kirkland: :damn:

Charlie Marr: (off Mic) :ciampa:
Gavin Kirkland: KASSIDY HEART WITH A LOW BLOW ON TLA BEFORE HE COULD CHOPPY CHOPPY CHARLIE’S WEE-WEE! TLA DROPS THE BOLT CUTTERS AND FALLS FORWARD! CHARLIE LOOKS RELIEVED UNTIL KASSIDY HEART JUST SLAMMED THE BOLT CUTTERS RIGHT INTO CHARLIE’S CROUCH! CHARLIE IS SCREAMING IN PAIN BUT KASSIDY TURNS HER ATTENTION ON TLA!
(Kassidy looks around frantically, finding the claw hammer, flipping to the side of the claw, stalking TLA as he gets back to his feet, she waits and drops it down on his back….)
Eve: NO! THERON FROM INSIDE THE RING JUST GRABBED THE HAMMER FROM HER! HE JUST GRABBED IT AND SHE TURNS; THERON FLIPS HER OVER INTO THE RING! KASSIDY LANDS HARD AND SHE GETS RIGHT BACK UP, THERON SLAMS THE HAMMER ON HER FOREHEAD! KASSIDY STUMBLES, THE BLOOD POURING OUT OF HER HEAD AND THERON DROPS IT, HE NOW UNWINDS THE BARBED WIRE FROM HIS FIST AND HE WRAPS IT AROUND THE MOUTH AND FACE OF KASSIDY HEART, OH MY GOSH!!!!!!
(Kassidy screams as the barbed wire tears the flesh from the side of her mouth Theron howls as she starts to drop to one knee, trying to find anything to stop it! TLA is still recovering! Charlie Marr is still down! Adam Lucas is back on his feet; he sees what is happening and grabs his Louisville Slugger….)
Gavin Kirkland: NO ADAM! LEAVE THERON ALONE!
Eve: ADAM LUCAS MAY DESPISE KASSIDY HEART BUT EVEN HE DOESN’T WANT TO SEE SEOMTHING LIKE THIS HAPPENING TO ANYONE! HE RESPECTS THE BUSINESS TOO MUCH AND…..
WHACK!!!!!
Eve: ADAM LUCAS JUST HIT A HOMERUN ON THE BACK OF THERON’S KNEE! HE LET’S GO OF THE HOLD AND WE ARE AT ABOUT SIXTY SECONDS AND WE GETT HE FINAL PARTICIPANT IN AS IMPACT IS READY! IMPACT IS GETTING SIKED UP FOR THIS! IMPACT HAS BEEN WATCHING THIS CARNAGE FOR FAR TOO LONG AND WANTS TO BE A PART OF IT!
(Theron buckles over releasing the barbed wire around the mouth of Heart who drops to the mats. Shaking, she grips at her mouth, the blood coming out…..)
Deadprez: ADAM NOW WALLOPS KASSIDY IN THE BACK WITH THE BASEBALL BAT! HE THEN TURNS AND WALLOPS THERON ON THE KNEE AGAIN! HE TURNS AND HITS KASSIDY IN THE BACK AND THEN BACK TO THE KNEE! ADAM LUCAS RAISES THE BAT IN THE AIR!
Crowd: NEXT LEVEL!!!!!! NEXT LEVEL!!!!!!!!!!! NEXT LEVEL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(Adam then points at the Chamber with Impact in it, telling him to come on! TLA though is already up, with bolt cutters in hand he starts signaling for something…..)
Deadprez: What is TLA doing!? WHAT IN THE HELL IS HE DOING!? WAIT…… what is this!?
(Suddenly in the entrance way four Poons suddenly drag out a huge metal box, the fans all turn to the entranceway as Adam looks over as well. TLA walks over to the chamber’s main entrance door as he grabs the bolt cutters….)
Eve: WAIT! THE TIMER!
Crowd:
FIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FOUR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TWO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(Suddenly the arena goes dark, the lights start to shine on the very last pod with Impact in it.)
(BUZZ!!!!!!!!!!!)
(The chamber pod slowly opens and here comes……)
Eve: THE FINAL ENTRANT IS IN THE CHAMBER! IMPACT IS IN AND WAIT…..
Deadprez: TLA IS WILDIN’ TONIGHT!
(TLA goes to the chain holding the lock and TLA raises the bolt cutters, Kassidy is now on all fours watching as is Theron. Charlie is up too…..)
TLA: (Off mic) YOU VATOS THOUGHT THIS WAS MY WEAPON!? NAH CARNAL….. THIS IS MY WEAPON!
(The poons open up the metal box…..)
Gavin Kirkland: IT IS AN ARMORED-UP STEROID DAWG! THE BEAST WHO LOVES TO FEAST!
(Steroid Dawg slowly walks out wearing armor all the way to covering his face. The competitors all look in shock as TLA kicks the Chamber door open! Impact quickly closes his pod door and stays inside.)
Eve: IMPACT ISN’T COMING OUT! HE DECIDED TO STAY IN THE CHAMBER AND HERE COMES STEROID DAWG!
Steroid Dawg: (off Mic) WOOF! WOOF! WOOF! WOOF! WOOF! WOOF!
(Translation: ORALE!)
Eve: STEROID DAWG IS BARRELING DOWN THE RAMP AND HE JUMPS RIGHT INTO THE RING! ADAM LUCAS SWINGS AT STEROID DAWG BUT HE BARRELS HIM OVER LIKE A CHARGING BULL! THERON GRABS THE BARBED WIRE AND TRIES TO JUMP ON STEROID DAWG BUT THE BEAST THROWS HIM OFF AS HE HITS THE ROPES AND OVER TO THE CHAMBER FLOOR! STEROID DAWG…..
PLOP!
(Everyone stops and turns as the one lone mannequin head of Kassidy Heart bounces off Steroid Dawg’s armor, who then slowly turns at Charlie Marr who is standing there wondering why in the hell did he just do that.)
Eve: Uhh… Charlie….
Deadprez: RUUUUUNNNNNN!
Steroid Dawg: (off Mic) WOOF! WOOF! WOOF!
(Translation: Dumbass.)
Gavin Kirkland: STEROID DAWG JUST JUMPED ON CHARLIE MARR AND HE IS MAULING HIM! WHERE… WHERE IS KASSIDY!?
(Kassidy was able to climb up to the one of the empty chambers. TLA notices that Impact is refusing to come out of his chamber, so he goes over and starts grabbing the plexiglass door, trying to force it open and get Impact into the fray….)
Deadprez: HERE COME OFFICIALS FROM THE EAW! HERE ARE SOME SECURITY AND REFEREES AS WELL! THEY ARE HERE TO GET STEROID DAWG OUT OF THE CAGE BUTR HE IS DOING HIS DAMAGE ON MARR AND WAIT! ADAM LUCAS JUMPS ON THE BACK OF STEROID DAWG! THIS GUY WILL EVEN SAVE HIS ENEMIES FROM A DOG MAULING!
Eve: Uhhh…. Bethany is such a lucky girl.
Gavin Kirkland: OR ABOUT TO BE SINGLE IN A FEW SECONDS! STEROID DAWG IS TRYING TO BUCK OFF ADAM LUCAS! ADAM IS HANGING ON FOR DEAR LIFE AND HE FALLS! ADAM GETS TRAMPLED BY STEROID DAWG UNTIL….. KASSIDY HEART! KJASSIDY JUMPS FROM THE CHAMBER POD WITH THE HAMMER AND SLAMS IT INTO THE……
(The hammer bounces off like a rubber ball. Kassidy just stands there as Steroid Dawg slowly turns to her as they are face to face, growling….)
Steroid Dawg: WOOF! WOOF! WOOF!
(Translation: Really bitch?)
Eve: KASSIDY TURNS AND JUMPS OUT OF THE WAY AS STEROID DAWG CHARGES! WAIT THEY ARE ALL IN THERE AND HERE COMES ANIMAL CONTROL! THERE ARE ABOUT SIX OF THEM RUNNING DOWN WITH LEASHES TRYING TO GET STEROID DAWG OUT BUT NO! TLA STARTS DROPKICKING THEM! TLA IS NOT HAVING ANY OF IT AND HERE COMES HURRICANE HAWK WITH A MIC IN HAND!
(Hurricane Hawk quickly runs down to the ring with a mic…)
Hurricane Hawk: TLA! STOP THIS RIGHT NOW! GET STEROID DAWG OU OF THERE RIGHT NOW OR YOU ARE ELIMINATED FROM THE CHAMBER! DO YOU HEAR ME!? I WILL ELIMINATE YOU FROM THE CHAMBER RIGHT NOW IF THAT BEAST IS NOT OUT OF THERE!
(The crowd obviously is not happy with this situation; they start to boo Hurricane hawk and chant….)
Crowd: ASSHOLE! ASSHOLE! ASSHOLE! ASSHOLE! ASSHOLE!
Hurricane Hawk: I MEAN IT! HE GETS OUT RIGHT NOW OR YOU ARE ELIMINATED!
(TLA looks at the crowd who chant “NO” repeatedly, but he takes a deep breath and nods, looking at Steroid Dawg whispering something, in which Steroid Dawg walks out of the chamber and into the waiting hands of four gorgeous poons, turning back to see TLA….)
Steroid Dawg: (Off Mic) WOOF!
(Translation: Dirty ass gringos always ruining all the fun of some Latinos.)
Hurricane Hawk: NOW LOCK THE DAMN DOORS AND LET’S GET THIS SHOWDOWN CHAMBER GOING! RIGHT NOW!)
(The crowd cheers as Steroid Dawg, officials, Poons and animal control along with Hurricane Hawk all go to the back, TLA standing there and turns….)
Deadprez: THE HAIL MARY BY IMPACT! THROUGHOUT THE COMMOTION HE SNUCK OUT OF HIS CHAMBER AND LAID TLA OUT! HE GOES FOR THE COVER AND THE FIRST ELIMINATION!

Deadprez: TLA KICKS OUT! LOOK AT THE CARNAGE IN THE RING! ADAM LUCAS AND THERON NIKOLAS ARE DOWN, CHARLIE WAS MAULED AND IS SLOWLY MOVING, KASSIDY HEART IS BLEEDING BAD BUT SHE WAS ABLE TO ESCAPE ANY SERIOUS INJURY FROM STEROID DAWG BUT IMPACT IS FRESH AS A DAISY AND HE IS ALL OVER TLA RIGHT NOW! PICKING HIM UP, WHIPPING TLA INTO THE ROPES, IMPACT WITH A HURRICARANA! THE TURNING TIDES! ADAM LUCAS IS UP AND IMPACT CHARGES IN WITH A STIFF ELBOW!
Eve: He is the freshest one in there and can have the pick of the litter! He is like a vulture right going after his prey! He is picking them off one by one and now he has Theron, picking him up too, slamming him into the mat, running against the ropes, FLIGHT SIGHTS! IMPACT IS JUST PICKING THEM APART NOW! POOR CHARLIE MARR, HE IS DOWN AND NOW HE GRABS HIM TOO WHILE ON THE STEEL CHAMBER FLOOR, PICKING UP MARR AND HOISTING HIM UP FOR A SUPLEX ON THE HARD STEEL. Impact is laughing , loving his work and now he sees Kassidy Heart!
Gavin Kirkland: YES! Take her out now! Finish her Imp! Get rid of her and then we can finally have a NEW World Champion! Her reign of terror is over. Impact is to Kassidy Heart now and she spring up, forearm after forearm and Impact is taking it all! He is backed up the ropes and Kassidy clothesline him…. NO! IMPACT WITH A THUMB TO THE EYE AND HOISTING HER UP, THE ABSOLUTION! KASSIDY IS DOWN AND NOW HE POSES IN THE MIDDLE OF THE RING, BODIES LAYING ALL AROUND IMPACT AND HE DOESN’T CARE ONE BIT!
(Impact continues to pose until he finally goes and grabs his weapon of choice, that being the black back which has some things in it. Reaching in he takes out…..)
Deadprez: IT’S A RAZOR GLOVE! HE IS SLIPPING THAT ON RIGHT NOW! HE LOOKS DOWN AT THE BAG AT OTHER GOODIES AS THE CROWD ROARS! BUT WAIT! IMPACT TURNS AROUND AND TLA IS STANDING THERE ALREADY UP! HE HAS THOSE BOLT CUTTERS IN HAND AS IMPACT IS SMILING AND HE CHARGES TLA!
Eve: TLA BLOCKS THE RAZOR GLOVE WITH THE BOLT CUTTERS! HE KICKS IMPACT OFF AS HE STUMBLES BACK AND TLA SWINGS THE BOLT CUTTERS! IMPACT DUCKS AND SLICES TLA’S CHEST WITH THE RAZOR GLOVE! TLA FALLS BACK SOME! STUNNED THAT HE WAS SLICED!
(TLA runs the fingers across the slice, then looks up at Impact smiling and then TLA smiles, Impact though tilts his head when he then turns around and sees Charlie Marr holding the head, Adam Lucas holding his bat, Theron Nikolas with his barbed wire wrapped around his fist and finally Kassidy Heart with the claw hammer in hand, they all start to circle him….)
Gavin Kirkland: IMPACT IS ABOUT TO DIE! HE IS ABOUT TO BE BEATEN LIKE A CRIMINAL! THEY REALIZED THAT HE HASN’T EVEN BEEN TOUCHED IN THIS MATCH THEY HAVE HIM SURROUNDED AND……
Eve: THE OTHER FIVE COMPETITORS ARE BEATING THE HELL OUT OF IMPACT! ALL FIVE ARE WALLOPING IMPACT WITH THEIR WEAPONS! KASSIDY IS BLASTING HIM WITH THE HAMMER! ADAM IS SWINGING AWAY WITH THE BAT! TLA IS TRYING TO CUT IMPACT’S HAIR WITH THE BOLT CUTTERS! THERON IS BREAKING HIM OPEN ON THE HEAD GRINDING THE BARBED WIRE ON IMPACT’S FACE AND CHARLIE MARR…. THEY ALL CLEAR OUT AND FROM HALFWAY ACROSS THE RING HE THROWS THE MANNEQUIN HEAD OF KASSIDY AND IT BOUNCES OFF IMPACT’S HEAD AS HE FALLS TO THE GROUND!
Crowd: THIS IS AWESOME!!!!!! THIS IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: IMPACT IS NOW ON THE SAME LEVEL AS EVERYONE ELSE! BLEEDING, HURT AND BEAT UP! THIS CHAMBER HAS ALREADY TAKEN SO MUCH TOLL ON THESE ATHLETES AND WER ARE JUST NOW WITH ALL SIX WRESTLERS IN BUT THAT DIDN’T LAST LONG! THERON GOES AFTER KASSIDY BUT SHE HITS HIM WITH THE HAMMER ON THE SHOULDER!

Gavin Kirkland: KASSIDY HEART JUST DRILLED THE CLAW OF THE HAMMER INTO THERON AND IT IS STUCK IN HIM! THERON IS SCREAMING IN PAIN AND KASSIDY…. NORVINA LIGHTS ON THERON AND SHE DRILLED THE HAMMER MORE INTO HIS SHOULDER WHEN HE LANDED ON THE MAT! THEY ARE TRYING TO KILL EACH OTHER!
(TLA is driving the bolt cutters into the cut open wound of Impact, Charlie Marr and Adam Lucas are once again going toe to toe when Charlie Marr kicks Adam between the legs, he crunches over and Charlie sets the head down, hooking Adam….)
Eve: CHARLIE MARR IS LOOKING TO END THIS NOW! HOISTING UP ADAM AND….. THE QUEEN IS DEAD ON THE HEAD! ADAM LUCAS IS DONE AND CHARLIE MARR COVERS HIM! WE HAVE THE FIRST ELIMINATION!

Gavin Kirkland: HOW THE HELL DID ADAM LUCAS KICK OUT! CHARLIE MARR IS SHOCKED! LOOK AT HIM! THE CROWD THOUGHT THIS WAS OVER TOO! ADAM LUCAS AND CHARLIE MARR STARTED THIS THING FROM THE VERY BEGINNING AND LOOK AT WHERE WE ARE NOW! I bet Bethany comes running out here pretty soon and I won’t be complaining.
Eve: Ugh… you are such a pig. ADAM LUCAS THOUGH IS STILL IN THIS AND LOOK AT KASSIDY, SHE HAS MOUNTED THERON AND IS GRINDING THAT HAMMER! LOOK AT HER FACE! SHE IS ENJOYING EVERY SINGLE BIT OF THIS AND….. SHE IS BITING THERON ON THE FACE! KASSIDY HEART IS GOING TO EAT THERON ON FREE PER VIEW!
(Theron screams as Kassidy bites his face, suddenly she sits up and spits a chunk of flesh out and starts to wipe her mouth, with a sneer and sadistic look on her face.)
Deadprez: SHE HAS LOST IT! TRYING TO MANGLE THERON! TRYING TO RIP HIM APART WITH HER DAMN TEETH! WAIT WHAT IS CHARLIE MARR DOING! HE IS CLIMBING TO THE TOP OF THE CHAMBER! TLA IS DRIVING THOSE BOLT CUTTERS INTO THE NECK OF IMPACT AND KASSIDY IS NOW PREYING ON THERON NIKOLAS! CHARLIE HAS CLIMBED TO THE VERY TOP OF THE CHAMBER POD; HE HAS THE HEAD LUCAS IS STILL LAID OUT AND CHARLIE DIVES HEAD AND HEAD FIRST!

(Veena Adams rushes to the Chamber and she tries to get into the door, the referees already used a different chain and lock to keep everyone out after TLA cut it with the Bolt Cutters. Adam sees her, he then turns and sees Charlie Marr slowly getting to his feet, gripping the bat and….)
WHACK!!!!!!!
Eve: LOUSIVILLE SLUGGER TO THE JAW OF CHARLIE MARR AND HER CRUMBLES INTO THE ICONIC! THE TRIANGLE CHOKE BY ADAM LUCAS TAUGHT TO HIM BY THE LATE GREAT ORLANDO CRUZE HIS MENTOR! HE HAS CHARLIE LOCKED IN BUT I THINK HE IS OUT!
(Veena throws the referees aside as she tries to get in but the referee checks Charlie Marr……)
Referee: (off mic) HE IS OUT!!!! HE IS OUT!!!!!!
Gina Romano: CHARLIE MARR HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!!!!
(Adam lets go and falls backwards trying to regain his composure. The door opens and Veena rushes in trying to check on Charlie as the officials help to roll him out of harms way. She glares daggers right at Adam Lucas who waves goodbye.)
Deadprez: WE HAVE OUR FIRST ELIMINATION OF THE NIGHT AT THE 30 MINUTE MARK! CHARLIE MARR STARTED THIS AND HE CAME TO FIGHT HERE TONIGHT BUT CRASHED AND BURNED WITH THAT MOVE OFF THE TOP OF THE CAGE AND NOW WE HAVE FIVE COMPETITORS LEFT!

Eve: THE MANNEQUIN CHARLIE BROUGHT IN OF KASSIDY JUST BOUNCED OFF ADAM LUCAS HEAD, NOW HE STUMBLES FORWARD, KASSIDY HEART GRABBED HER OWN HEAD AND THREW IT AT HIM AND NOW ADAM TURNS RIGHT INTO THE ARMS OF IMPACT WITH THAT BULLETPROOF VEST ON WITH SPIKES AND BELLY TO BELLY SUPLEX ON LUCAS!

SHE IS BACK UP TO HER FEET AND SEES THERON BACK UP, TAKING THE HAMMER OUT OF HIS SHOULDER!
Theron Nikolas: (Off Mic) You and I are just getting started. NOBODY is going to take the title home out here tonight except for ME! Nobody! Let’s finish this!
(All Kassidy can do is smile before letting out a primal scream as both competitors circle the ring, both bleeding, battered but not broken. The crowd is on their feet as Theron and Kassidy stand in the middle of the ring, the rest are lying around these two are the ones standing…..)
Eve: :lupe:
Gavin Kirkland: :lupe:
Deadprez: :lupe:
Crowd: EAW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! EAW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! EAW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Deadprez: AND HERE IS THAT STANDOFF! HERE IS WHERE IT WILL MAKE ALL THE DIFFERENCE IN THE WORLD, THERON WANTS HIS REVENGE AND KASSIDY IS NOT ABOUT TO GIVE IT AND HERE THEY GO!
(The crowd explodes in cheers as Kassidy and Theron starts to throw fists at each other….)
Deadprez: HE IS LAYING THAT BARBED WIRE INTO HER FLESH! KASSIDY WITH EVERY SINGLE PUNCH SHE IS LASHED AND GASHED! KASSIDY IS YELLING AT HIM!
Kassidy Heart: (Off mic) IS THAT ALL YOU HAVE!?
Deadprez: THERON NIKOLAS CHARGES AT KASSIDY BUT SHE SUPERKICKS HIM! THERON LOSES HIS BALANCE AND KASSIDY STORMS OUT WITH A HUGE CLOTHESLIN…. NO!

HE IS GOING TO TIE IT AROUND KASSIDY LIKE SHE DID HIM AND LOOK AT KASSIDY, SHE IS BARELY ABLE TO CRAWL, BUT THERE IS IMPACT’S BAG! KASSIDY IS REACHING FOR IT AND HERE COMES THERON!
(Kassidy tries to grab the bag but Theron grabs her ankle…..)
Gavin Kirkland: HE IS GOING FOR THE HORCRUX WITH THE BARBED WIRE AND IF HE GETS THIS LOCKED IN WE ARE GUARANTEED A NEW CHAMPION! WE ARE….. ADAM LUCAS FROM BEHIND, HE GRABS THERON, AND RED MIST! ADAM IS BLINDED BY THE RED MIST! HE…..

……..
Gina Romano: ADAM LUCAS HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!
Gavin Kirkland: Damn it!
(Adam Lucas rolls out of the ring as the referees are there but he is bleeding massively and blinded, some medical personnel come to help him. )
Deadprez: Adam Lucas was one of the first to start this match and this young man opened up a lot of eyes, he was definitely a victim of the draw but there is no doubt that Adam will be a World Champion! Impact with the elimination and Theron Nikolas is completely obsessed with Kassidy Heart! He is still trying to lock in the HORCRUX!
(As Adam is helped to the back, the chamber closes up again and Impact now grabs TLA and grabs his legs, trying to turn him over for the Walls of Impact!)
Eve: We have two things going on right now and the final four! THIS HAS BEEN AN INCREDIBLE MATCH BUT A BRUTAL ONE THAT HAS SET THE PACE HERE TONIGHT! WE ARE LOOKING AT FOUR WRESTLERS WHERE ONE OF THEM, WILL WALK OUT AS THE WORLD CHAMPION! ONE OF THEM WILL BE THE KING OR QUEEN OF SHOWDOWN! TLA IS ALMOST TURNED INTO THE WALLS OF IMAPCT AND THERON NIKOLAS IS TRYING TO LOCK IN THE HORCRUX! KASSIDY IS GRABBING THAT BAG; SHE IS REACHING INTO SOMETHING BUT THERON HAS LOCKED IN THE BARBED WIRE!!!!! HE LOCKED THE BARBED WIRE AROUND HER ANKLE AND LEG!
(Kassidy screams as the barbed wire drills into her leg! She grunts biting down on her arm trying to fight the pain. Kassidy reaches into the bag and grabs a handful of something, turning…..)
Gavin Kirkland: THAT BITCH JUST THREW SALT INTO THE EYES OF THERON NIKOLAS! IMPACT HAD SALT IN THE BAG AND SHE JUST BLINDED THERON! HE LETS GO OF THE HORCRUX! TLA THOUGH IS FIGHTING WITH IMPACT AND HE FLIPS IMPACT OVER! IMPACT BUMPS INTO THERON AND PUSHES HIM FORWARD AS HE STUMBLES! THIS GIVES KASSIDY TIME TO RECOVER AND LOOK AT HER, SHE IS REACHING INTO HER BOOT, WHAT DOES SHE HAVE!
Eve: Is that….. PIANO WIRE! KASSIDY HEART HAS PIANO WIRE AND SHE WRAPS IT AROUND THERON NIKOLAS THROAT! SHE WRAPS IT AROUND HIS THROAT AND FALLS BACK! KASSIDY REACHES OVER AND GRABS THE HAMMER, PLACING IT IN THE RINGS AND TWISTING IT TIGHT! SHE IS GOING TO KILL THERON NIKOLAS! SHE HAS NO REMORSE AND LOOK AT HER EMPTY AND SOULLES EYES! IT IS LIKE SHE IS STARING OUT INTO A VOID! SHE HAS COMPLETELY LOST IT HERE! KASSIDY IS BLEEDING ALL OVER AND SHE IS STILL CHOKING THERON OUT! BLOOD IS STARTING TO COME OUT OF HIS NECK! MY GOSH REFEREE STOP THIS DAMN IT! SHE IS GOING TO KILL HIM!
(Kassidy continues to choke him while TLA sees what is happening and climbs to the top of the chamber pod, then he looks up to the top of the chamber as the crowd cheers! )
Deadprez: WHAT IS TLA DOING!? HE JUST HOPPED ON THE BARS OF THE TOP OF THE CHAMBER CEILING AND HE STARTS SWINGING, KASSIDY IS PAYING NO ATTENTION, SHE HAS THERON CHOKING AND ALMOST OUT AND TLA IS SWINGING TRYING TO GET SOME MOMENTUM AND……
Gavin Kirkland: 420 SHOOTING STAR PRESS OFF THE TOP OF THE CAGE ON THERON AND KASSIDY HEART! 420 SHOOTING STAR PRESS FROM THE TOP OF THE CHAMBER ON KASSIDY AND THERON!
Crowd: HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!! HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(TLA holding his midsection rolls away holding his abdomen. Kassidy lets go crushed under the weight of both men as Theron falls to the side trying to get his air back. TLA has enough presence to press on Kassidy for the pin….)
Deadprez: THE CHAMPION COULD BE ELIMINATED RIGHT HERE!
ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TWO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

………
Eve: KASSIDY HEART GETS A SHOULDER UP! BARELY UP BUT STOPS THE COUNT AND TLA IS LOOKING SHOCKED! HE SLOWLY GETS UP AND PICKS UP KASSIDY, HERE COMES THE MEXICAN DESTROYER! TLA GETS THE……
Deadprez: NO!!!!! THERON NIKOLAS CLOTHESLINES TLA WITH THE PIANO WIRE!!!! TLA GOES DOWN AND HIS THROAT IS NOW CUT TOO! THERON NOW TURNS BACK TO KASSIDY AND NOW HE GRABS THE BARBED WIRE STILL WRAPPED AROUND HER LEG AND TRIPS HER BACK UP, KASSIDY STARTS TO FIGHT HIM OFF! SHE IS KICKING HIM BUT THERON IS SO OBSESSED WITH MAKING KASSIDY TAP OUT HE IS ONLY FOCUSED ON THAT AND ONLY THAT!
Gavin Kirkland: THERON IS GOING FOR THE HORCRUX AGAIN AND …. IMPACT WITH THE FIST OF FURY! HE JUST WALLOPED THERON AS HE WAS TRYING TO GET KASSIDY IN THE HORCRUX! IMPACT DROPS ON THERON FOR THE COVER AND WE MAY HAVE OUR THIRD ELIMINATION!

Gina Romano: THERON NIKOLAS HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!!!!!
Deadprez: WHAT THE HELL!? HE WAS A FAVORITE TO WIN AND HIS OBSESSION WITH BEATING KASSIDY HEART COST HIM! IT COST HIM AND NOW HE HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!
(Theron lays there bloody for a moment, he can’t believe what has happened, slowly being rolled out of the ring but he stops. Sitting up wide-eyed just realizing what has happened.)
Theron Nikolas: (Off Mic) NO! NO! NO! I AM NOT ELIMINATED! NO!
(The referee’s trying to get him out of the chamber but Theron slowly gets back up reaching over to the Louisville Slugger that was Adam’s, TLA is up at his feet, and he grabs Kassidy Heart as she tries to get up….)
Deadprez: THERON WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING!? WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?
SMACK!!!!!!!
Eve: THERON NIKOLAS JUST CRACKED THE SKULL OF TLA WITH THE BASEBALL BAT! TLA FALLS RIGHT ON TO HIS FOURS AND KASSIDY DROPS SOME OF THE BARBED WIRE ON TRHE BOTTOM OF HER BOOT, SHE RUNS AT TLA….

Gina Romano: TLA HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!!!!
(Theron Nikolas and Kassidy continue to stare at one another as the referees pull him out of the cage. They help TLA as the crowd boos tremendously at both eliminations, but Theron doesn’t go easy.)
Deadprez: they are trying to get him out of the cage right now, but he also cost TLA after being eliminated by who many thought would be the favorite here! And now we are down to our last two, Kassidy Heart and Impact!
(The crowd cheers for TLA who starts to make his way toward the back, being helped by the medical staff but Theron refuses, taking the bolt cutters and walking out of the cage. The close and lock the Chamber and realize that Theron has the bolt cutters. )
Eve: Theron has the bolt cutters! He is refusing to leave the area! Kassidy is slowly getting back up as is Impact and look at the stare down! The FINAL TWO AND ONE OF THESE WILL BE THE ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION AND THEY WILL LEAVE TONIGHT WITH IMMORTALITY! THAT KILLS THERON BECAUSE HE WANTED THIS! HE WAS ONE OF THE FAVORITES BUT EVERYONE SLEEPS ON TLA AND HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE GUY THAT WALKED OUT AS CHAMPION TONIGHT! BUT WILL IT BE IMPACT! WILL THE LEGENDARY REIGN OF KASSIDY HEART CONTINUE!? WE ARE ABOUT TO FIND OUT!
Crowd: LET’S GO IMPACT!!!!!!
Crowd: KASSIDY HEART!!!!!!!!
Crowd: LET’S GO IMPACT!!!!!!!
Crowd: KASSIDY HEART!!!!!!!!
(Barely able to walk, her leg, her face, her body bleeding, beaten and bruised she limps in the ring as Impact also a bloody mess circles the ring too, they both glare at one another knowing this is it, the homestretch.)
Deadprez: AND HERE WE GO! IMPACT AND KASSIDY WITH THEIR WEAPONS, KASSIDY HAS THE HAMMER AND IMPACT WITH THE VEST, HE GRABS HIS BAG AND TAKES OUT ONE MORE THING…. IT’S A CATTLE PROD! KASSIDY KNOWS ALL ABOUT THAT! LOOK AT HER FACE! SHE IS DROOLING BLOOD AND SWEAT!
(Kassidy screams and charges Impact, he tries to cattle prod her, but she performs a high bicycle knee with the barbed wire….)
Eve: IMPACT IS DOWN! KASSIDY HEART WITH THE BICYCLE KICK AND SHE GRANB THE CATTLE PROD! SHE GOES TO STICK IT ON IMPACT BUT IT HAS NO AFFECT! HE HAS A BULLET PROOF VEST ON! IMPACT KIPS UP AND THAT PROBABLY DISLOCATED TWO DISCS IN HIS BACK BUT HE GRABS KASSIDY AND BEAR HUGS HER! PRESSING THE CHAMPION AGAINST THE SPIKES AND KASSIDY IS SCREAMING AS THOSE STEEL SPIKES ARE DRIVEN INTO THE CHEST!
Gavin Kirkland: SOMETHING IS SERIOUSLY GOING TO POP AGAINST HER CHEST AND SHE IS GOING TO FLOAT ALL OVER THE PLACE LIKE A BALLOON LOSING AIR!
Deadprez: IMPACT LET’S GO AND BACKS UP; HE CHARGES IN AND FIST OF FURY! NO! KASSIDY DUCKS AND IMPACT TURNS INTO THE DEDEDE DDT! IMPACT IS DOWN AND KASSIDY LIMPING LOOKS AT THE HAMMER AND WAITS AS SHE WRAPS THE FIGURE FOUR ON IMP[ACT WITH THE BARBED WIRE AND NOW SHE IS SLAMMING THE HAMMER ON HIS KNEE! SHE3 IS SLAMMING THAT RIGHT ON HIS KNEE AND IS YELLING OUT IN PAIN!
(Outside the ring, Theron Nikolas looks on, he tries to get back to the door but now officials and security are there to stop him. Theron wants to get in but he then looks up at the chamber and starts to climb it from the side….)
Eve: WHAT THE HELL IS THERON NIKOLAS DOING!? WHAT THE HELL IS HE THINKING RIGHT NOW! HE IS CLIMBING THE CHAMBER WITH THE BOLT CUTTERS AND WHAT IN THE WORLD IS HE PLANNING! HE CAN’T GET IN FROM THERE CAN HE!?
Gavin Kirkland: I DON’T KNOW BUT THERON RIGHT NOW HAS ONLY ONE FOCUS AND THAT IS HIS REVENGE ON KASSIDY HEART BUT INSIDE THE RING IMPACT IS IN TROUBLE AND KASSIDY CONTINUES TO SMASH THAT HAMMER INTO HIS KNEE AND NOW SHE TURNS IT INTO THE FIGURE EIGHT! IMPACT IS SCREAMING BLOODY MURDER! HE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO HOLD ON ANY LONGER! NOT LIKE THIS! SHE CAN’T BE THE WORLD CHAMPION AFTER THIS!
(Theron makes it to the top of the cage, looking down at Kassidy and Theron in the middle of the ring and he is slamming it with the bolt cutters! Trying to get in and Impact though is able to turn on the figure eight, the XOXO Kass is doing the damage….)
Deadprez: HE ALMOST HAS IT OVER BUT KASSIDY IS SO UNRELENTING RIGHT NOW, SHE CAN SEE THE DAMN FINISH LINE! IT IS RIGHT THERE! IMPACT THOUGH IS SLOWLY TURNING IT OVER; HE IS DOING HIS BEST TO TRY AND GET OUT OF THIS! AND HE DOES! KASSIDY HAS TO BREAK IT BUT THE DAMAGE IS DONE AND IMPACT IS HAVING PROBLEMS STANDING UP! HE IS BARELY ABLE TO GET TO HIS FEET AND KASSIDY AS WELL! SHE IS UP AND GOES TO GRAB IMPACT BUT ANB ELBOW TO THE MIDSECTION! AND ANOTHER! KASSIDY HEART STUMBLING BACK…..
Eve: IMPACT WITH TURNING TIDES AGAIN BUT NO KASSIDY HOLDS HIM AND SHE POWERS HIM UP INTO A SITDOWN POWERBOMB! THE STRENGTH OF KASSIDY HEART MY GOSH! SHE HAS HIM FOR THE COVER!

THAT FACE SAYS IT ALL, SO DEMENTED AS IMPACT IS BACK UP AND KASSIDY RUSHES IMPACT….. FIST OF FURY! IMPACT JUST HIT THE FIST OF FURY AND KASSIDY FALLS MOTIONLESS!
Theron Nikolas: (Off Mic) NOOOOOOO!!!!!
(Theron Nikolas suddenly starts trying to cut at the chains of the chamber with the bolt cutters! He screams no repeatedly as Impact looks up at Theron and flips him the bird.)
Impact: (Off mic) Fuck You Ass Hat!
Deadprez: IMPACT DROPS ON KASSIDY HEART FOR THE COVER AND WE HAVE OURSELVES A NEW WORLD CHAMPION!

Eve: KASSIDY HEART GETS A SHOULDER UP! AND IMPACT DOESN’T CARE! HE LOCKS HER IN THE WALLS OF IMPACT AND TURNS HER OVER! THIS COULD BE IT! KASSIDY HEART IS FIGHTING FOR EVERYTHING THAT SHE HAS AND WAIT! LOOK AT THERON!
(Theron cuts some heavy chains and they start to fall from the top of the Chamber! The crowd starts screaming as one of those could kill one of the competitors!)
Deadprez: THERON WANTS NO ONE TO BEAT KASSIDY BUT HIMSELF AND THIS HAS DROVE THE GOD EMPEROR MAD! HE WANTS NOTHING MORE THAN TO TOPPLE THE EVIL QUEEN AND IS DOING EVERYTHING IN HIS POWER T….

Gavin Kirkland: ONE OF THOSE CHAINS LANDED ON IMPACT! IT CRUSHED IMPACT AND HE HAS FALLEN FORWARD BREAKING UP THE HOLD! LOOK AT KASSIDY HEART! SHE ROLLS OVER AND LOOKS UP AT THERON, HE IS STARING RIGHT AT HER…. COME ON NOT LIKE THIS! IMPACT IS HURT! HE COULD BE TWITCHING!
Deadprez: KASSIDY HEART LOCKS IN THE THANK U NEXT! THE BARBED WIRE STILL WRAPPED UNDER HER BOOT AND SHE IS KICKING IMPACT IN THE HEAD WHILE THE MOVE IS LOCKED IN BUT HE MAYBE UNCONSCIOUS! HE MAY BE MOTIONLESS AND KASSIDY IS LOOKING UP AT THERON, SHE IS LAUGHING AND KICKING IMPACT BUT HE IS NOT QUITTING HE IS NOT…….
(The referee stops the match…)
(DING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
Gina Romano: IMPACT HAS BEEN ELIMINATED! THE WINNER AND STILL ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION! KASSIDY HEART!
(Monster by Kanye West plays throughout the arena as Kassidy lets go and is handed the World Championship, embracing it and lying on her back glaring up at Theron Nikolas laughing at him while he just stares at her with cold eyes.)
Deadprez: THERON NIKOLAS JUST HELPED KASSIDY HEART DEFEAT IMPACT! HIS OBSESSION WITH DEFEATING HER WAS TOO MUCH TO BEAR AND HE BASICALLY THREW CAUTION TO THE WIND AND GAVE HER AN OPENING TO RETAIN THE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP!
Eve: Kassidy Heart doesn’t care, there are no rules in this match, she didn’t cheat, she didn’t ask for the help or need it! Impact had her in a very bad situation but she manages to survive like she does every single time in defending that title! She was not the favorite going into this match but she is ending 2021 As THE ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION!
Gavin Kirkland: I HATE MY LIFE RIGHT NOW!
(Kassidy holds the title and continues to laugh, as Theron and her continue to stare at one another. The officials and medical staff check on both but Kassidy pushes them away, getting up on her own, bleeding and hurt, walking out of the Chamber holding the Answers World Championship. Theron doesn’t take his eyes off her as she raises it up in the air with a wicked smile on her face. Impact is being tended to as he starts to stir but the officials are concerned.)
Deadprez: This was an epic chamber match where all six of these wrestlers simply put it all out on the line and in the end Kassidy Heart wins again, the question is, can anyone stop her?
Gavin Kirkland: I don’t know, I just need a hug right now.
Eve: Right now, no but I know that TLA, Adam Lucas, Charlie Marr, Impact and Theron Nikolas will have something to say about it. There is no doubt that things could have been different here tonight, but in the end, Theron wanted it all and didn’t get it, at what lengths will he go now. As for Kassidy Heart? She is the best and who will take her down!?
(The last shot is of a bleeding Kassidy Heart raising her championship one more time high above her head and backing up slowly sneering at the fans it cuts to a commercial break.)
(As we return from commercials.)
[SCREEN BAR – EARLIER TODAY]
(The scene opens with the lovely Mikaela Street waving to the camera.)
Mikaela Street: Hello EAW Universe! What a treat do I have for you!
(The camera pans to her guest, Jake Smith.)
Mikaela Street: I’d like to welcome the Cash In The Vault winner and has been teasing cashing it in now this past month, thank you so much for joining me, Jake Smith! Hi Jake!
Jake Smith: Hello Mikaela, thank you for allowing me this opportunity. It truly is an exciting time on the Jake Smith Show this Season 16, and I’m glad to be a part of it, especially with the opportunity to cash in as you’ve mentioned. So please, ask away.
Mikaela Street: Okay… first question, you were one of the top draft picks for Showdown, of course that was under Hurricane Hawk. How do you feel about how things have gone down and the new General Manager?
Jake Smith: Wonderfully, the addition of Kennedy Street onto this brand was the best thing that could’ve happened for it. I know at this point it might seem like water under the bridge, but me and Hurricane Hawk have never had the most stable business relationship. Especially after the incident back in 2020 concerning The Round Table, he was always doubting pulling the trigger on what I rightfully deserved. Sure the PURE Championship was great and all, the two times I held it, but I knew especially with my second run on the brand that I could do so much more as an Elitist. So it comes as no surprise to me that other brands would see that and not his, unlocking my true potential and allowing me to become the Elitist that I am today. I returned already having the keys to the kingdom in my hand, and Hawk knew that just as well as anyone. But despite that I knew there was always something in the back of his mind that held him back from allowing me to truly flourish. So maybe Showdown did need a new coat of paint, and thankfully that was in pink.
(Mikaela smiles and nods.)
Jake Smith: I have the utmost faith in Kennedy and her abilities and know that she’s fully capable of bringing this brand into the future. We’ve seen the changes that this company has gone through this Season, there has been a shift in how everything has gone down especially with the Disney partnership and of course all three brands had to adapt to it. Always though it seemed like Showdown had the most problems doing that, even with the problem child Voltage doing somewhat good for itself thanks to Captain Charisma and Eden Sinclair. The main problem always lies in the management, and I mean that with no offense to Heidi Huxley. Kennedy is the change that this brand needed and as I mentioned at the beginning I am more than happy to be a part of it.
(She proceeds with the next question.)
Mikaela Street: You called out Impact and made your intentions known that it’s time for the Champion to start looking behind his back, but with Kassidy Heart there, what kind of threat do you feel she represents to your chances?
Jake Smith: None at all, regardless of whether or not she serves as a roadblock absolutely nothing changes. I’ve said it before and I’m more than happy to say it again, all I need is one moment, one chance, and I will take it. When that will be is my secret to keep, and that will eat Impact alive. It eats him alive so much that he decides to get some extra help to keep me at bay, which is a bit hypocritical considering that he was the one trashing on me for not having a fair fight. If Kassidy wants to get in the way of my aspirations then so be it, I’ve had the cards stacked against me my entire career, what’s new? Just know that despite that, nothing is going to stop me from winning the Answers World Championship, nothing is going to stop me from fulfilling my destiny. And at Road To Redemption I will desecrate The Mauler and get myself one step closer to plucking off Impact and truly making this the Jake Smith Show.
Mikaela Street: Kassidy said she would be the Last Person Standing, What happens at Road to Redemption?
Jake Smith: Exactly what I said, the complete opposite. Kassidy might think that I’m walking into her own territory by making this a Last Person Standing match, but I know that I’m capable of fighting against whatever she has in store for me. I’ve been in the ring with her so many times this Season alone, I know what she’s capable of and I know just how brutal and sadistic she can be especially on Free-Per-View. If I want to even stand a chance against her, then I need to be ready, I need to take my game to the next level. At Road To Redemption I have no choice but to bring out the best Jake Smith possible against a Hall of Famer and the longest reigning Answers World Champion, and I know that if I do that I have what it takes to put her down for the ten count and walk out the victor. If I want to make a statement toward Impact, then that is what I’m going to have to do, and make no mistake about it I will. I’ve already put him on notice enough, but just know this will be my biggest statement yet… whatever happens after that is anyone’s guess.
(Mikaela’s eyes widen then asks her next question.)
Mikaela Street: What can we expect from Jake Smith moving forward?
Jake Smith: Heading into the year 2023 regardless of how Road To Redemption pans out I look to further myself and this brand even further. A lot of people look at the new year as a fresh start, a page turned and a chapter started, but how I look at it as a continuation of my work from 2022. I have already accomplished so much, but I want more, I need more, and I’m not going to stop until I accomplish just that. The opportunity is right in the palm of my hands, and I know that my success has never been guaranteed with that circumstance in the past, but that’s going to change. I’m going to change people’s perception on me from the Jake Smith who fails opportunity after opportunity and become something more, something greater, and it is truly going to be an amazing sight, I hope you can join me for the ride.
Mikaela Street: Finally, any last words?
Jake Smith: There’s a lot I could say, specifically toward Impact and Kassidy Heart, but I’ll reserve what I need to say for next week instead. I just hope everyone enjoys Road To Redemption and I’m excited to put on a show alongside everyone else on the Jake Smith Show. Let’s end 2022 with a bang, and have some fun out there.
Mikaela Street: Thank you so much Jake! And tune into Road to Redemption next week! Remember…. Mikaela Knows Best! XOXO!
(She waves while Jake Smith smiles as the camera fades to the final commercial break,)
( The scene fades back from the commercial break as ‘You Know My Name’ by Chris Cornell plays throughout the arena. The crowd crazily starts cheering as Adam Lucas, with a high confident look on his face, makes his way to the ring then ‘The Outsiders’ by Eric Church replaces Adam’s theme music as The National Elite Champion, Donovan Duke, follows him from behind. )
Gina Romano: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, IT’S TIME FOR YOUR MAIN EVENT OF THE EVENING!… THE FOLLOWING CONTEST IS A 4-ON-2 HANDICAP TAG TEAM MATCH BY ORDER OF KENNEDY STREET, AND IT’S SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL!

Eve: Just say Kennedy Street, man.
Gavin Kirkland: HEY! It’s my queue! Anyway, last week on Showdown, Kennedy Street decided to set this match as the main event of today’s Showdown due to the benefit of #WEWRESTLE! What a legend, right?
Deadprez: I don’t really understand how this will help our brand but… I’m just going to see why Kennedy decided to do this.
( Adam and Donovan enter the ring then ‘The Only Thing They Fear Is You’ by Mick Gordon starts playing as Ryan Wilson comes out first before ‘Black Ball’ by NBA Youngboy replaces his theme music as Jon Kelton comes out and follows Ryan from behind to the stage. After all, ‘It Follows’ replaces once again as Xander Payne comes out and joins the side of both men. Finally, ‘M3tamorphosis’ by Playboi Carti (ft. Kid Cudi) hits the speakers as The Answer World Champion himself, Impact, makes his way from behind the curtain down to the ring. All three men start walking down from the stage to the ring with Impact leading them all the way down to the ring. )

Eve: Here come the other four men who Adam and Duke are going to fight inside the Elimination Chamber. Ryan has been fighting his way out to prove that the real Ryan Wilson is something to this business. Kelton is looking to finally become the world champion. Xander is looking to prove that ‘The Best Wrestler In The World’ isn’t just a nickname but his whole personification as he’s looking to become two-times world champion! Then Impact looks to keep dominating as the Answers World Champion!
Gavin Kirkland: I love this match, everyone! This sounds absolutely amazing and I can’t wait until Road to Redemption! It’s going to be a spectacular title match!
(DING DING DING!)
Gavin Kirkland: Your main event is underway, ladies and gentlemen! Ryan and Donovan are kicking things off as the first legal men of this handicap match by order of Kennedy Street! Two men who have been facing each other for the National Elite title at Pain For Pride XV earlier this year! Both men encounter in the middle of the ring and start off with a collar and elbow tie-up! Duke snatches Ryan by his head and tries to go for a Headlock Takedown. Ryan gets sent down to the ground but quickly wraps his legs around Duke’s head. Duke bounces off as both men rise back to their feet. Ryan runs in, but Duke takes him down with a quick arm drag! Ryan pops back to his feet, and Dukes tries to go for another one, but Ryan stops! Ryan grabs and scoops him down to the ground with an arm drag on his own instead!
Deadprez: Duke gets taken down to the ground and Ryan looks to go for a headlock but Duke quickly pulls his head out from under Ryan’s shoulder. Duke grabs Ryan from behind and tries to bring him down to the canvas with a German Suplex! Ryan utilizes his right elbow and stuns Duke away by driving it right into his face! Duke stumbles back away from Ryan. Ryan turns his attention back to Duke as he runs in but Duke moves to the side, goes behind him, underhooks both shoulders, and A Dragon Suplex sends the back of Ryan’s neck to the mat!-
Eve: RYAN LANDS ON HIS FEET! Ryan quickly goes under Duke’s shoulder and hoists him up into the air for a Back Body Drop!… And he lands it! Duke falls flat to the ground! Duke holds down his spine in pain. The National Elite champion is in danger and this is Ryan’s chance to make more advantages. Ryan jogs back to the ropes and bounces off for a running clothesline, sending rising Duke… but Duke ducks under!
Gavin Kirkland: Ryan misses the mark and turns back around. Duke with a superkick rocking Ryan’s jaw, stomps on one of Ryan’s feet, causing him to down to both knees. Duke holds his back and moves down to the ropes behind him as he looks to put Ryan down for good with a running dropkick…
Gavin Kirkland: Ryan jumps back to both feet and throws himself to the National Elite Champion, crashing and ending up lying upon Duke! Ryan proceeds with a pinfall on the champion!
ONE!!!!!!!-
Eve: The champion kicks out at one! Ryan isn’t spare any time for the Champion as he picks Duke back to both feet and tosses him down to his team’s corner! Ryan follows up and connects Duke with a running forearm smash at the corner! Ryan looks to his partners as he thinks for a second about who he will choose….
Ryan Wilson (Off-Mic): Okay Kelton, let’s do this.
Jon Kelton (Off-Mic): Wait, why me- Okay, you know what? Fine.
(TAG!)
Deadprez: Kelton doesn’t seem to enjoy a bit, but he’s still made a tag to act like a professional. Kelton goes through the ropes entering the ring. Ryan signals him before sending a knee to Duke’s gut. Ryan grabs and throws the champion to Kelton. Kelton catches by popping him up in the air and crashing him to the ground with a Spinebuster!
Gavin Kirkland: Kelton rises back to his fe-
(TAG!)
Jon Kelton: ??????
Ryan Wilson: :wtf:
Gavin Kirkland: Ryan and Kelton gaze their eyes to the man who just made a tag… and here comes the Answers World Champion, Impact. Impact seems disgruntled by what these two have done in this match so far and is sick of it. Kelton looks at Impact in confusion while Ryan shakes his head before entering behind the ropes, upon the apron. Kelton shrugs then go behind the ropes without doing anything further. This man…
Deadprez: While the National Elite Champion tries to pick the pieces together, Impact completely ignores him and goes eyes-to-eyes with Adam Lucas standing on the apron, watching the competition. Impact doesn’t do anything but stare… right into his soul. Impact slowly turns back around to focus on the matc- A SAVATE KICK OUT OF THE SHADOW, TAKING THE ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION DOWN TO BOTH KNEES!
Eve: DUKE ASCENDS BACK TO BOTH FEET AND IMPACT IS IN TROUBLE! IMPACT TRIES TO CAPITALIZE AND RECOVERS FROM A KICK, BUT DUKE KEEPS HIM DOWN TO THE GROUND WITH A HURRICARANA! IMPACT’S FACE DRIVES DOWN TO THE GROUND BY DUKE’S HURRICANRANA! HE’S BEATING THE HELL OUT OF IMPACT SO FAR!
Gavin Kirkland: Impact crawls down to the corner behind him and tries to pull himself back to both feet, using the middle rope. Impact turns his attention back to Du- DUKE JUMPS IN AND SENDS IMPACT BACK TO THE CORNER WITH A RUNNING CORNER CLOTHESLINE! THE CROWD IN THAILAND ARE UP TO THEIR FEET! THEY ARE EXCITED ABOUT WHAT DUKE IS DOING RIGHT NOW TO THE ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION!
Deadprez: Duke is on a roll. He’s fired up right now and Impact struggles to get back to both feet. Duke keeps both eyes on Impact and waits for the perfect moment to come… DUKE SPINS AND GOES FOR A ‘DEALER’S CHOICE’ ON IMPACT BUT IMPACT CATCHES HIM IN A MID-SPIN WITH A HEADBUTT DIRECTLY TO HIS SKULL! Impact stops the action as he quickly snatches Duke by his head and connects him to the ground with a Running Bulldog!
Eve: Down goes Duke but Impact gets upon him and starts raining blows on Duke over and over! It’s his turn to beat the hell out of Duke! Impact gets back to his feet, pulling Duke with him before Irish whipping him into the corner behind. Duke’s back hits the corner as he automatically bounces off the corner into a Knife Edge Chop from Impact! Impact with another chop before pushing Duke back into the corner… and another one right across his chest once again!
Gavin Kirkland: Impact is controlling his game now. Impact starts sending Duke down to the opposite corner. Duke goes right down to the opposite corner and Impact starts running at full speed… BUT DUKE STEPS OUT OF THE CORNER ALL OF SUDDEN AND CATCHES IMPACT, DRIVING THE ANSWERS WORLD CHAMPION INTO THE CORNER WITH A NOTHERN LIGHTS SUPLEX!!! IMPACT COLLAPSES TO THE MAT!!! DUKE IS CRAWLING DOWN TO HIS PARTNER, ADAM LUCAS, WHO IS LOOKING TO MAKE A TAG WHILE IMPACT DOES THE SAME DOWN TO HIS TEAM’S SIDE AS XANDER REACHES HIS RIGHT HAND FOR HIS PAYNEPACT PARTNER!….
( TAG! )
Deadprez: A tag made on both sides at the same time. Adam Lucas and Xander Payne are now legal men! Adam jumps over the ropes. Xander goes through the ropes. Xander looks to takedown Adam from the beginning with a Superkic- But Adam blocks and catches Xander by his leg! Adam tosses it away and delivers a Standing Dropkick, taking Xander down!
Eve: Adam rises back to both feet as fast as he possibly can and moves down to take the three other men off the apron. A right hand to Impact. To Ryan! To Kelton! Kelton tries to push himself off the concrete floor… ADAM FLIES DOWN OVER THE ROPES TO OUTSIDE THE RING, KEEPING KELTON DOWN TO THE GROUND WITH A SPRINGBOARD FOREARM SMASH! Adam grabs the ring post and uses it to help him get back to both feet. Ryan runs in and drops an elbow to the back of his neck. Ryan pulls his wrist and tries to toss Adam down to the barricade… RYAN PULLS HIM IN BUT ADAM SLIDES UNDER RYAN’S LEGS INSTEAD! ADAM REGAINS BACK TO HIS FEET QUICKLY, GRABS RYAN, AND SENDS HIM FLYING DOWN TO THE CONCRETE FLOOR WITH A GERMAN SUPLEX!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Two men are out and here comes Impact who have yet to be taken down by Adam Lucas. Adam is coming back to his feet and Impact tries to pull him into a powerbomb position. Adam struggles and gets his way out successfully. Adam pulls his head out from under Impact’s legs and a discus punch goes right across Impact’s face!
Deadprez: Impact takes a hard punch before holding down his face and walking back into A SPINEBUSTER TO THE CONCRETE FLOOR BY ADAM LUCAS, TAKING IMPACT DOWN!
Eve: Adam Lucas is on fire for this 4v2 Handicap match here tonight! Adam heads back inside the ring, seeing Xander recover himself from the dropkick he gave at the beginning at the corner of his team. Adam wastes no time as he runs in and crashes on Xander with a Stinger Splash! Adam then looks at Duke. Both men look at each other…
Adam Lucas (Off-Mic): Yeah, let’s go for that.
( TAG! )
Gavin Kirkland: Adam makes a tag and here comes Donovan Duke once again! Adam picks Xander back to both feet and drives a discus punch across Xander’s jaw! Duke with a Clothesline to the back of Xander’s head, followed by a Step-Up Enzuigiri from Adam Lucas….
Deadprez: AND DUKE BOUNCES OFF THE ROPES IN FRONT OF XANDER AND SPLITS HIM IN HALF WITH A SPEAR!!!!!!!! WHAT A COMBO BY THESE TWO ELITISTS! DUKE DROPS DOWN FOR A QUICK COVER!
ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!

TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
….
THR-
Eve: Xander Payne kicks out! The match co-… oh?
( Everyone inside/outside the ring turns their attention to the stage as Sexy Flawless GM, Kennedy Street fabulously makes her way to the ring. She does nothing but crosses her arms, smiles at all the Showdown’s Elimination Chamber competitors, and starts watching the match. )
Gavin Kirkland: I have no idea what she’s doing out here, but I’m sure she’s here for me!
Deadprez: She doesn’t care about you, my brother.
Gavin Kirkland: I-
Eve: Focus on the match, guys. This is the main event. Duke starts getting back to his feet while Xander crawls all the way down to the bottom rope, trying to reach it. Duke reaches both feet as he starts walking down to Xander and pulls him back to both feet by the back of his pant. Duke drives a knee to Xander’s gut before putting him in a DDT position. Duke slowly puts both feet on the second rope… AND LEAPS OFF IT FOR A TORNADO DDT BUT XANDER SAYS NO!
Gavin Kirkland: XANDER HAS HIM LANDING ON BOTH FEET BEFORE HOOKING HIS LEFT LEG AND TURNING DUKE INTO A FISHERMAN BUSTER!
Deadprez: Duke falls to the ground by Xander’s counter and now it’s Xander’s chance to do a payback. Xander starts getting back to his feet as Duke remains laying down on the ground in pain.

All four men leave the ring while Kennedy Street enters the ring and looks down at Duke and Adam who are completely out after what they have just been through. )
