Mikaela Street
(EAW intro plays)
(Showdown opens up with a recap of Showdown last week. The Jaded Hearts come out, Kassidy enjoying the crowd cheering and supporting due to being in her hometown, but she speaks up and suddenly turns on them, making them boo her. The Jaded Hearts tell Fire and Ice to come to Showdown for a contract signing and warn them again. Luis de la Rosa defeats Nikki Kimura after Roberto interferes, Aria and Miku enter the ring to separate the two of them, Miku calls out for the rest of the Divide and Conquer team to get them in the same page, where everyone realizes then at the moment they were actually in Divide and Conquer since the beginning and only thought Miku was just being crazy, Miku shuts them up and tells them to not fight before Miku and Aria go back to commentary for the next match. Brianna Hill beats Elly Elle after this time cheating from Luis. The Brand Warfare team goes bowling for another team build activity. Jon Kelton and SOSA Henderson defeat TLA and Harper Lee. Raeangel Guzman comes out to brag about and insult her opponents at Territorial Invasion, saying that she will be the next Specialists Champion. Aria Lestrade talks about her opponents at Territorial Invasion before suddenly being attacked behind by Auburn Ware. Charlie Marr defeats Roberto de la Rosa and Ryan Wilson. Kyra Phillips has an interview with the Wargames team, everyone being confident heading into Territorial Invasion. Milli Banks and Bronson Daniels defeated Cody Maverick and Donovan Duke in the main event. The show ends with the Showdown Wargames Team and New Eden in a staredown.
(The recap ends, and it is replaced with the song “Brick Wall” by a Day to Remember, as the camera pans around the inside of the RAC Arena in Perth, Australia. Fireworks are shooting out of the stage and the whole crowd can be seen cheering and being excited for the show. The camera ends up panning over to the commentary table with Deadprez, Eve and Gavin Kirkland as the commentators start talking.)
Eve: WELCOME EVERYONE… TO SATURDAY NIGHT SHOWDOWN!
Deadprez: We got an exciting bunch of matches for tonight, we got the Jaded Hearts teaming as they face off against Nikki Kimura and Elly Elle, we have Ruler facing off against Miku Sakai and Aria Lestrade fights against Auburn Ware!
Eve: We also have the Universal Women’s Champion Milli Banks facing off against Raeangel Guzmán! And in the main event, we see Charlie Marr, Cody Maverick and Donovan Duke face off against La Familia!
Gavin Kirkland: LET US NOT WASTE ANYMORE TIME AND LET’S START OFF WITH THE JADED HEARTS!
Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen! Our opening contest is a TAG TEAM MATCH SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL!
Crowd: ONE FALL!
(“True Love” by CFO$ starts to play as the crowd immediately begins to boo. Seconds later, the jeers get louder as the Tag Team Champions, The Jaded Hearts enter the arena. Kassidy and Sienna look ready to get down to business as Gina Romano begins the introductions for the first match of the night.)
Gina Romano: Introducing first and making their way to the ring! At a total combined weight of 276 pounds! Here are the reigning EAW UNIFIED TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS! SIENNA JADE! KASSIDY HEART! THE! JADED! HEARTS!
Deadprez: Ladies and gentlemen welcome back to Showdown, and you can see that The Jaded Hearts are still in the ring and ready for tag team action. After what happened just moments ago, they look ready to fight.
Gavin Kirkland: I know. I love it. Who knew being so bad would look so good. I am glad that they are still out here ready to go.
Eve: Well, I feel bad for their opposition because there is no doubt that the Jaded Hearts are looking to use them as an example for Fire and Ice and what is to come at Territorial Invasion. I hope they are ready.
(Kass and Sienna enter the arena and hold their titles high before they take their corner. They are keeping their eyes focused on the entrance ramp as their entrance music is replaced by “Swallowing the Rabbit Whole” by Code Orange. Seconds later, the team of Elly Elle and Nikki Kimura enter the arena, and they are not alone. They duo are accompanied by Divide & Conquer Captain Miku Sakai as well as La Familia. They look ready as they all head to the ring.)
Gina Romano: Introducing their opponents! Being accompanied to the ring by Miku Sakai and La Familia! At a total combined weight of 242 pounds. Here is the team of ELLY ELLE AND NIKKI KIMURA!
Gavin Kirkland: Look at the solidarity of our Divide and Conquer team. Miku and La Familia have matches later tonight and they are here supporting Elly and Nikki. I love it.
Eve: As “sweet” as it may be, having a seven on two disadvantage is not going to make The Jaded Hearts happy. Be that as it may, Nikki and Elly were on the losing end of their matches last week. Tonight, they are looking to pick up the biggest victory of their young careers.
Deadprez: Beating the Jaded Hearts would send their stocks to the moon, but they have a VERY tall task ahead of them. Can Elly and Nikki pick up the upset victory as they head to Territorial Invasion? We are about to find out.
(Elly and Nikki enter the ring as La Familia and Miku take their place at ringside as Elly’s entrance music fades off. Seconds later, the referee checks all four competitors before they call for the bell.)
(DING! DING! DING!)
Eve: Here we go! Our opening contest for Saturday Night Showdown is underway. The question is how long will this match last? This is going to be interesting as Nikki and Sienna will be starting off this match.
Deadprez: Nikki and Sienna lock up in the center of the ring as Sienna is trying to overpower Nikki, BUT NIKKI IS NOT LETTING THAT HAPPEN! Nikki is able to match Sienna as we have a stalemate in the center of the ring–
Gavin Kirkland: SIENNA WITH A KICK TO THE GUT THAT DOUBLES OVER NIKKI! Sienna is throwing forearms into Nikki’s face as she gets backed into the ropes before Sienna whips Nikki to the other side.
Deadprez: Nikki comes back as Sienna grabs her for a backbreaker, BUT NIKKI IS ABLE TO COUNTER INTO A HEADSCISSOR TAKEOVER THAT SENDS SIENNA FOR THE RIDE! SIENNA IS STUNNED!
Eve: Sienna is back to her feet AND NIKKI IS RIGHT THERE WITH A CLOTHESLINE THAT TAKES SIENNA OFF OF HER FEET! Sienna is back up again AND NIKKI TAKES HER OVER WITH AN ARMDRAG!
Gavin Kirkland: I certainly didn’t see this coming from Nikki. I wasn’t expecting Nikki to be in control against someone the likes of Sienna Jade. But look at her wrenching against the arm of Sienna.
Eve: But Sienna rolls back to help get herself back to her feet. She does a cartwheel to get her arm free BEFORE SHE COUNTERS WITH A FOREARM TO NIKKI’S FACE! SIENNA IS NOT HAPPY RIGHT NOW!
Deadprez: Sienna doesn’t like to not be in control, but Sienna has it back AND SHE CHOPS NIKKI ACROSS THE CHEST! REPEATED CHOPS ACROSS THE CHEST LIGHT UP NIKKI AND SEND HER INTO THE CORNER!
(TAG!)
Gavin Kirkland: She was backed into Sienna’s corner and Sienna Jade tagged out to Kassidy Heart. This is not going to be good for Nikki because Kassidy is very dangerous. Both ladies have a facelock–
Eve: AND NIKKI WAS TAKEN OVER WITH THE DOUBLE SUPLEX! Nikki is trying to get back to her feet AND KASSIDY IS RIGHT THERE READY TO GO WITH A SESSION OF BOXING PRACTICE!
Deadprez: KASSIDY IS USING NIKKI KIMURA AS A PUNCHING BAG WITH ALL THOSE PUNCHES BEING DELIVERED TO POOR NIKKI! NOW KASSIDY USES NIKKI’S HAIR AND THROWS HER DOWN TO THE MAT!
Gavin Kirkland: When you face the Jaded Hearts, you have to be ready for anything because Kassidy and Sienna both have large arsenals that they can use at any time. Kassidy is now on the second rope–
Deadprez: KASSIDY JUMPS OFF THE SECOND ROPE AND DELIVERS THE DIVING FIST DROP IN NIKKI’S FACE BEFORE SHE ROLLS HER OVER AND HOOKS THE LEG FOR THE COVER!
ONNNNNNNNNNEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWOOOOOOOO!
Eve: NIKKI KICKS OUT AT TWO! Kassidy doesn’t look mad. She looks more amused that she kicked out and wants to keep fighting. Kassidy uses the hair to pull Nikki back to her feet BEFORE CLOBBERING HER WITH A CLOTHESLINE!
Gavin Kirkland: Poor Nikki is down as Kassidy once again tries to pull Nikki back up to her feet BUT NIKKI GRABS HOLD OF KASSIDY AND PULLS HER OVER INTO AN INSIDE CRADLE! KASS’ SHOULDERS ARE DOWN!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWWOOOOO!
THHHHHHHRRRRRREEEE—
Eve: KASSIDY KICKS OUT AND NIKKI WAS LESS THAN A SECOND AWAY FROM PICKING UP THE BIGGEST VICTORY OF HER CAREER! Both women are back to their feet AND NIKKI BEATS KASSIDY TO THE PUNCH–
Deadprez: DROPKICK TO KASSIDY’S FACE! Look at this offense from Nikki Kimura. She is here to fight. Kassidy is back on her feet AND NIKKI GOES FOR A RUNNING CROSSBODY–
Gavin Kirkland: KASSIDY WAS TAKEN DOWN, BUT KASSIDY ROLLS THROUGH AND SHE HAS HOLD OF NIKKI–
Eve: NIKKI MANAGES TO COUNTER WITH A MODIFIED ARM SCISSORS TO TAKE KASSIDY OVER! Kassidy is back on her feet and Nikki kicks her in the gut before Nikki grabs her and lifts her up–
Deadprez: NIKKI JUST DROPS KASSIDY WITH THE SITOUT POWERBOMB! WHAT A SHOW OF POWER FROM NIKKI KIMURA AS SHE STACKS KASSIDY UP FOR A COVER!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOO!
THHHHHHHHHRRRRREEEEEEEE—
Gavin Kirkland: KASSIDY WITH THE SHOULDER UP AT TWO! I think that The Jaded Hearts took Nikki Kimura a little too lightly and it almost cost them the match. Elly Elle is reaching out for the tag as Nikki pulls Kassidy to her corner–
(TAG!)
Deadprez: Elly Elle is now in this match and both ladies have hold of Kassidy BEFORE TAKING HER OVER WITH A DOUBLE RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP! Now Elly has hold of Kassidy AND TAKES HER UP AND OVER WITH A SUPLEX!
Eve: Kassidy has crawled into a corner AND ELLY IS RIGHT THERE WITH A SPLIT CHOKE IN THE CORNER! BOOT AGAINST THE THROAT AND THE REFEREE IS RIGHT THERE TELLING ELLY TO LET KASSIDY OUT OF THE CORNER–
Gavin Kirkland: The referee didn’t have to start a count as Kassidy has hold of Elly’s leg AND SHE THROWS ELLY DOWN INTO THE SPLIT POSITION! THAT WAS NOT A PRETTY LANDING!
Eve: Kassidy is not happy as SHE KICKS ELLY RIGHT IN THE SKULL AND SENDS HER FALLING BACK TO THE MAT! Kassidy now has Elly by the hair AND PULLS HER RIGHT INTO THE BEAR HUG!
Deadprez: Submission hold applied AND KASSIDY IS SHAKING ELLY AROUND LIKE A RAGDOLL! KASSIDY’S FISTS ARE DEEP IN ELLY’S LOWER BACK! The referee is right there checking to see if Elly wants to give it up.
Gavin Kirkland: To Elly’s credit she still wants to fight SO KASSIDY JUST SHAKES HER SOME MORE! Wait a second! Now Kassidy is walking Elly to the corner AND SHE IS WALKING ONTO THE SECOND ROPE WILL ELLY STILL IN HER HANDS!
Eve: I don’t know what Kassidy has planned in that demented mind of hers, but there is no doubt that it isn’t going to be good. Kassidy still has hold of Elly AS SHE LEAPS OFF THE SECOND ROPE–
Deadprez: “THE BRIGHTON FLY” BY KASSIDY HEART! KASSIDY HEART HITS THE SPANISH FLY OFF THE SECOND ROPE! VERY CREATIVE WAY TO TURN THE BEAR HUG INTO A VERY DANGEROUS MOVE!
Gavin Kirkland: That move was a thing of beauty as Kassidy hooks the leg for the cover!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!
THHHHHRRRRRRREEEEEEEEE!
Deadprez: NIKKI COMES INTO THE RING AND KICKS KASSIDY IN THE HEAD TO BREAK UP THE COUNT! The referee is right there to get Nikki back outside the ring–
Eve: SIENNA JADES SNEAKS INTO THE RING AND RAKES ELLY’S BACK BEFORE RUNNING OUT OF THE RING AND BACK TO THE APRON!
Gavin Kirkland: The referee turns back to the match and is none the wiser of Sienna’s cheap trick as Kassidy pulls Elly back to her feet and tosses her into the corner–
(TAG!)
Eve: Sienna Jade is back in the match AND KASSIDY IS BITING ELLY AS SIENNA DELIVERS A ROUNDHOUSE KICK TO THE SIDE OF ELLY’S HEAD! Poor Elly has been getting the crap beat out of her ever since she got into the match!
Deadprez: Miku and La Familia are still at ringside trying to cheer her on and help her get back into this match as Sienna whips Elly back into the ropes–
(TAG!)
Gavin Kirkland: Nikki Kimura made a blind tag and she is the legal competitor in the match AS SIENNA CAUGHT ELLY WITH THE “WITCHES HAMMER”! RIPCORD ELBOW KNOCKS ELLY OUT ONTO THE APRON–
Eve: AND NIKKI CAUGHT SIENNA WITH THE DOUBLE KNEE BACKBREAKER! Sienna is down and Nikki is back on her feet as she climbs her way up to the top rope!
Deadprez: First time in the match that Nikki has climbed up to the high rent district as she doesn’t waste a moment AND NIKKI JUMPS OFF THE TOP ROPE–
Gavin Kirkland: MOONSAULT! NIKKI GOT THE MOONSAULT AND IT WAS A DIRECT HIT ON SIENNA JADE! SIENNA ISN’T MOVING AS NIKKI QUICKLY CRAWLS OVER AND HOOKS THE LEG FOR THE COVER!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!
THHHHHHHHHRRRRRREEEEEEE!
Eve: DID SHE GET IT? NO! THE REFEREE IS CALLING IT A TWO COUNT! OHH THAT WAS A VERY CLOSE NEAR FALL FOR NIKKI KIMURA!
Deadprez: Nikki is really showing out in this match. She is showing that she certainly was a great choice to be part of the Showdown Divide and Conquer team. Right now, Nikki is checking with the referee to make sure that it was really a two count.
Gavin Kirkland: Nikki needs to focus on the match and not the referee considering she is competing against the most dominating duo in probably Elite Answers Wrestling history… and the hottest duo.
Deadprez: You are a very hopeful man, Gavin. Right now, Nikki is back on her feet, and she drags Sienna back up to her feet. Nikki has the face lock applied and she hooks the leg–
Eve: NIKKI IS TRYING TO HIT A FISHERMAN’S SUPLEX! THAT’S ONE OF SIENNA’S MAIN MOVES AND THAT WILL CERTAINLY NOT SIT WELL WITH SIENNA, BUT SIENNA IS BLOCKING IT!
Gavin Kirkland: Nikki tries to hit the fisherman’s suplex again, BUT SIENNA IS BLOCKING THE MOVE ONCE AGAIN! NOW SHE GETS HER LEG FREE IN MIDAIR AND SHE SWINGS AROUND AND SNAPS NIKKI DOWN WITH A MODIFIED IMPALER DDT!
Eve: That was a very innovative counter by the Hall of Famer Sienna Jade as Nikki was planted face first into the mat. Now Sienna is back on her feet, and she looks PISSED! Could it be that The Jaded Hearts have been taking Nikki and Elly lightly this entire time.
Deadprez: That is a very strong possibility, but I don’t think that’s the case anymore as Sienna looks like she is done playing around with these two. She is ready to end this match.
Gavin Kirkland: Nikki is still down AS SIENNA DELIVERS A STIFF KICK TO THE SPINE OF NIKKI KIMURA BEFORE SHE DELIVERS ANOTHER ONE FOR GOOD MEASURE!
Eve: Now she grabs Nikki by the hair AND SHE JUST FLINGS NIKKI ACROSS THE RING BY THE HAIR! Look at Sienna just picking the hair from in between her fingers.
(TAG!)
Deadprez: Good thing for NIkki that she was thrown into her corner and Elly was right there to make a tag and now Elly is climbing her way to the top rope AND ELLY JUMPS OFF THE TOP ROPE–
Gavin Kirkland: ELLY WAS LOOKING FOR A SOMERSAULT NECKBREAKER FROM THE TOP ROPE BUT SIENNA CAUGHT HER! SIENNA HAS ELLY BY THE ARMS AND LIFTS HER INTO POSITION–
Deadprez: FOR THE “CLAPBACK”! BACK TO BACK BACKBREAKER LOOKED LIKE IT ALSO GAVE ELLY A WHIPLASH EFFECT AS SHE FALLS TO THE MAT! Sienna is feeling pretty good as she rolls Elly over for the cover!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!
THHHHHHHHHHHRRRRRREEEEE!
Eve: WHOA WHOA WHOA! WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT? Sienna Jade no doubt had the three count right there and the match won, but Sienna pulled Elly’s shoulders off the mat and that forced the referee to stop the count. That might be a mistake made by overconfidence.
Gavin Kirkland: That wasn’t a mistake and that wasn’t brought about by overconfidence. The Jaded Hearts are showing Nikki and Elly that they might have got lucky a few times in this match, but this is The Jaded Hearts’ house.
Eve: Kassidy Heart is on the top rope as Sienna drags Elly over to the corner and Sienna Jade tags Kassidy in.
(TAG!)
Deadprez: Kassidy is legal AND SHE COMES OFF THE TOP ROPE AND SHE HITS “MAXX SOLARIS”! BEAUTIFUL CORKSCREW SHOOTING STAR PRESS BY THE MAULER! ELLY STILL HASN’T MOVED AND KASSIDY TAGS SIENNA BACK INTO THE MATCH!
Gavin Kirkland: It looks like Sienna Jade is getting the honor of finishing this match. Sienna pulls Elly up by the hair so she is back on her feet before locking her face and hooks her leg–
Eve: SIENNA HAS HER UP AND DROPS HER WITH THE “RDG”! THE BRIDGING FISHERMAN’S SUPLEX ALMOST SPIKES POOR ELLY RIGHT ON HER HEAD AS SIENNA KEEPS THE BRIDGE UP FOR THE COVER!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!
THHHHHHHHRRRREEEEEEEEE!
(DING! DING! DING!)
(“True Love” starts playing again as Sienna rolls off of Elly and feigns fatigue, which gets the crowd booing loudly as Gina Romano begins announcing the final decision of the match.)
Gina Romano: Here are your winners! The EAW UNIFIED TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS! KASSIDY HEART! SIENNA JADE! THE JADED HEARTS!
Deadprez: When I say this, I mean no disrespect to Elly and Nikki, but this end result was almost inevitable considering who the opposition is.
Gavin Kirkland: Well duh! No random team is going to go into the ring and defeat the toughest and most beautiful team in all of EAW.
(Kassidy is in the ring as the referee hands the duo their title belts and tries to raise their arms in victory, but the referee is quickly shoved away and glared at by The Jaded Hearts as the referee goes to check on Elly. Meanwhile, Nikki has slid back in the ring to check on Elly as well.)
Eve: Gavin, you are such an ass. Yeah, Nikki and Elly’s chances of winning this match might have been slim to none, but that didn’t stop them from bringing the fight to the Unified Tag Team Champions. They did an amazing job in this match.
Deadprez: That’s right, Gavin. They might not have won, but they opened some eyes on their performance. But it was the Champions who won this non-title match. Congrats once again to the Jaded He–
(As Sienna is celebrating to the crowd, Nikki is getting back to her feet AND KASSIDY QUICKLY TURNS AROUND AND CLOCKS HER WITH THE CHAMPIONSHIP BELT!)
Eve: OH, COME ON! THAT WAS UNCALLED FOR! KASSIDY HEART WITH THE TITLE BELT TO THE SKULL! YOU ALREADY WON THE MATCH, KASS! THERE WAS NO NEED FOR THAT!
Gavin Kirkland: The Jaded Hearts are looking to further make a statement as Kassidy runs to Nikki AND DELIVERS THE “PAINFULLY EVER AFTER”! CURB STOMP TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD!
Deadprez: To further add insult to injury, Kassidy grabs Nikki like a sack of potatoes and just throws her right out of the ring. The referee is trying to intervene, but it isn’t doing any good.
Eve: Kass is pulling Elly Elle back to her feet and they drag her to the corner. Sienna Jade is holding onto Elly as Kassidy runs in AND HITS “RAPTURE”! HELLUVA KICK RIGHT TO THE FACE!
Gavin Kirkland: LOOK! IT LOOKS LIKE MIKU SAKAI AND THE REST OF LA FAMILIA ARE GOING TO COME IN HELP ELLY OUT–
(As they try to slide into the ring, it seems like they have second thoughts and reverse course. Miku picks up Nikki and they all leave ringside.)
Deadprez: WHAT IN THE HELL ARE THEY DOING? MIKU AND LA FAMILIA HAVE PICKED UP A STILL UNCONSCIOUS NIKKI AND THEY ARE LEAVING THE RINGSIDE AREA! NOT ONLY THAT, BUT THEY ARE ALSO LEAVING ELLY ELLE ALL BY HER LONESOME!
Eve: That is not right! Elly has got to be unconscious right now after the Rapture kick and KASSIDY IS SITTING ON THE TOP TURNBUCKLE! KASSIDY JUST TOLD SIENNA TO FINISH HER OFF… FOR GOOD!
Gavin Kirkland: As hot as I think these two are, I think this is a little too much. Sienna grabs Elly by the hair AND SLAMS HER FACE FIRST INTO THE TAG TEAM TITLE BELT! OVER AND OVER AGAIN AS THEY ARE BEATING THE HELL OUT OF THIS POOR YOUNG COMPETITOR!
Eve: This can’t be about making a statement to Fire and Ice. It just has to be more than that! Sienna is not done! Sienna has Elly by hair once more AND FIRES OFF THE RIPCORD ROLLING ELBOW ACROSS THE SIDE OF THE HEAD!
Deadprez: “WITCHES HAMMER” CRACKS ELLY IN THE SKULL! ELLY IS NOT MOVING AS SIENNA ROLLS OUT OF THE RING AND GRABS A STEEL CHAIR FROM THE TIMEKEEPER’S AREA BEFORE ROLLING BACK IN THE RING!
Gavin Kirkland: Sienna has ill intentions deep in her eyes as she is laser focused on Elly Elle. Sienna Jade brings that chair back–
Eve: BEFORE SHE SWINGS THE CHAIR AND CRACKS ELLY ACROSS THE SKULL! OH MY GAWD! THIS IS JUST GETTING TO BE TOO MUCH! WHERE IN THE HELL IS SECURITY TO STOP THIS!
Deadprez: The referee is trying, but it is falling on deaf ears… OH MY GAWD! ELLY IS BLEEDING AND BLEEDING BADLY! SIENNA! STOP THIS! YOU HAVE MADE YOUR POINT! YOU HAVE MADE YOUR STATEMENT!
Gavin Kirkland: That’s not it! Sienna Jade has rolled out of the ring again AND THIS TIME SHE GRABS THE RING BELL! THIS IS STARTING TO GET TOO MUCH TO WATCH! EVEN FOR ME!
Eve: Sienna Jade slides back into the ring and puts the ring bell down in the middle of the ring! Not only that, BUT SIENNA ALSO JUST SLID THE STEEL CHAIR ACROSS ELLY’S THROAT! SIENNA STOP THIS!
Deadprez: Sienna grabs Elly and lifts her in the air with the chair still around her neck! SHE IS RIGHT ABOVE THE RING BELL BEFORE SIENNA DROPS DOWN AND HITS ELLY WITH A PILEDRIVER ON THE RING BELL!
Gavin Kirkland: ELLY IS… I REALLY CAN’T EVEN PUT INTO WORDS WHAT SHE JUST DID, BUT SHE IS NOT MOVING! WE NEED SECURITY AND THE MEDICAL STAFF OUT HERE NOW AND KASSIDY HEART JUST HAS A SMILE ON HER FACE!
(Sienna is back to her feet as Kassidy gets off the top turnbuckle and hands Sienna back the Tag Title belt. Both women hold their titles high in the air which gets the crowd booing again.)
Eve: I don’t even know how they could be smiling right now after what they did to poor Elly Elle. She could have a broken neck! Her career could be in jeopardy thanks to the heinous actions of the Jaded Hearts.
(Elly is motionless in the ring as we finally see the EMTs rushing out to the ring with a stretcher to take care of Elly.)
Deadprez: Well, it’s about damn time that the EMTs have made it out to the ring. I hope that Sienna and Kassidy are proud of themselves for what they did as they start to load Elly onto the stretcher.
Gavin Kirkland: I wonder if Fire and Ice were watching this match considering they will be facing off with the Jaded Hearts in two weeks for the Unified Tag Team Championships. If they are willing to do that kind of beatdown to a poor rookie, imagine what they will do to Rex and Raven at Territorial Invasion.
Eve: What the actual fuck? There is somebody in the ring who no doubt has internal and external bleeding among other things. She could have permanent injury for all we know and you are asking if Fire and Ice saw this match. Get your damn priorities straight.
Deadprez: I’ll admit, Eve, that I wonder if Rex and Raven caught this match, but that isn’t the most important thing to worry about right now. They have Elly on the stretcher, and we will keep you posted on her condition as soon as we find out something.
Eve: We will certainly keep Elly Elle in our thoughts and give her our best wishes. From the looks of this, she will more than likely be OUT of Territorial Invasion. Right now, it looks like The Jaded Hearts have asked for microphones and they have something to say.
(EMTs have Elly on the stretcher, and they are rushing her out of the arena and back to the waiting ambulance. After they have their microphones, Kass and Sienna wave goodbye to the EMTs and Elly before they begin to speak.)
Kassidy Heart: Are you going to take us seriously, now? Week after week, we have come out to the ring to establish how serious we are as Unified Tag Team Champions, but all you have done is boo us because you didn’t want to admit what we have been saying is the truth.
Sienna Jade: It didn’t have to reach this level of extreme for us to prove our point, but it was because of….
(Sienna points out and turns all the way around to emphasize what she is trying to say.)
Sienna Jade: YOU PEOPLE! That’s right! You people who sit your asses in these damn seats every week and the losers who watch at home and then sit behind their keyboards and bitch about the shows. ALL OF YOU! If you would have just taken what we said seriously, we wouldn’t have had to beat the shit out of that rookie bitch.
(Sienna turns to Kassidy and asks her a question.)
Sienna Jade: What the fuck was her name anyway?
Kassidy Heart: How the fuck should I know? The announcer said it, but I wasn’t listening.
Sienna Jade: Oh well. That’s not the point. Whatever her name is had to suffer because you all were such ignorant dumbasses.
Kassidy Heart: Hold on, Sienna. We didn’t do that just to prove a point with these idiotic fans. We did that to further make a statement.
(Kassidy steps closer to the camera and pats the Unified Tag Championship belt that is resting on her shoulder. The look on her face is showing that she is NOT messing around.)
Kassidy Heart: And that statement is to show those deranged old dumb bitches Fire and Ice that these beautiful Tag Team Titles are NOT going to be leaving our grasp at Territorial Invasion.
Sienna Jade: Do you guys even realize what we have done with the Unified Tag Team Championships ever since we’ve won the titles?
(Sienna and Kassidy hold their titles in the air once again which gets another round of boos from the arena crowd.)
Kassidy Heart: Of course, you idiots don’t realize it BECAUSE ALL YOU DO IS JUST KEEP BOOING US! GO AHEAD AND KEEP BOOING US BECAUSE YOU ARE JUST FURTHER PROVING OUR POINT!
Sienna Jade: WILL YOU JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP FOR ONCE IN YOUR PATHETIC LIVES AND LISTEN TO WHAT WE HAVE TO SAY!
(The screaming for the Jaded Hearts just causes the crowd to boo even louder which then leads to the crowd to start chanting.
Crowd: (off-mic) YOU SUCK! YOU SUCK! YOU SUCK! YOU SUCK! YOU SUCK! YOU SUCK! YOU SUCK!
(Sienna and Kassidy just roll their eyes because this was exactly what they were expecting. They let the crowd have their little fun for a moment before they continue to speak.)
Kassidy Heart: You disgusting perverts only wish we did so you could continue to put us into your sleazy little fantasies, but just accept the fact that we are some of the most classy ladies in all of Elite Answers Wrestling.
Sienna Jade: And that is just one more thing that we have added to the Tag Team Championships since we’ve won them… among all the other things that we’ve done.
Kassidy Heart: Not only have we added some class and prestige to these Tag Team Championship belts, we have made these titles much more sought after.
Sienna Jade: That’s right. Before we were Tag Team Champions, did you see all these random ass tag teams come out of the woodwork and try their luck at becoming Champions?
Kassidy Heart: Hell no you didn’t. That’s just one more reason as to why we are without a shadow of a doubt the greatest tag team in Elite Answers Wrestling… EVER!
(Kassidy and Sienna have smirks on their faces as they give themselves a pat on the back before they get back to talking.)
Sienna Jade: As we are the greatest tag team ever, every time we have had a challenger step up to the plate to try and dethrone us, they have all suffered the same fate.
Kassidy Heart: They have ALL fallen at the hands of the Jaded Hearts. NOBODY up to this point has been able to come CLOSE to dethroning us and I don’t see that happening in the future because how we are still continuing to build our already amazing legacies.
Sienna Jade: That leads us to Territorial Invasion. As annoying and as easy as this title defense is going to be, now that the Tag Team Championships finally have some dignity and some class behind them, it is our duty to accept a challenge for these titles.
Kassidy Heart: Of course, when we issued our open challenge, we were expecting a team… hell we were expecting ANY other team than this Fire and Ice shit. But being the generous and dedicated titleholders that we are, we are more than happy to kick their asses in two weeks.
Sienna Jade: Speaking of Fire and Ice, I certainly hope that Rex and Raven were watching this match from wherever the fuck they are because what we did to that rookie… still can’t remember her name… is just a VERY SMALL portion of what we are going to do to them at Territorial Invasion.
Kassidy Heart: Since we are talking about Fire and Ice once again, I have this feeling that Rex and Raven might be here in the arena. Since those two has beens seem to not be able to get any spotlight of their own, they are doing whatever they can to mooch off of the spotlight that we EARNED!
Sienna Jade: Hey, Kass. Since we are the most generous people you will ever meet, how about we give them another chance to mooch off of us yet again and call their asses out to the ring.
Kassidy Heart: You know what? Let’s do it. HEY REX! HEY RAVEN! You want the spotlight so badly? How about you come out to the ring and try and take it from us.
(Kass and Sienna turn to the entrance ramp and wait for Fire and Ice to come to the ring… which they haven’t done yet.)
Sienna Jade: YOOHOO! HELLO? Come out, come out wherever you are! Free spotlight at twelve o’clock. All you have to do is just come out to the ring.
(They keep looking towards the entrance ramp and once again we do not see Fire and Ice appear.)
Kassidy Heart: Wow. What a shock. We are generous and they don’t accept it. Are they scared? Or maybe they have some sort of brains in their heads. That’s fine. We aren’t offended.
Sienna Jade: That’s because maybe they realize the trouble they are going to find themselves in. Face it. At Territorial Invasion, you are going to be added to a list of other teams that fell to the Jaded Hearts. We’re the best and we are going to be staying the best for a very long time, so just accept it NOW!
(The Jaded Hearts toss their microphones down to the ground and leave the ring as “True Love” starts playing again. The crowd is booing them as they leave the ring and head up the entrance ramp.)
Eve: We didn’t see Fire and Ice tonight, but at Territorial Invasion, that will not be the case. The title reign of The Jaded Hearts is in serious jeopardy. All they did was just stir the pot that much more. I hope they are ready for what comes their way in just two weeks.)
(The final shot is Kassidy and Sienna standing proud at the top of the entrance ramp holding their Tag Titles high in the air as the camera fades to a commercial break..)
(As Showdown returns from the commercial break, “Tear Away” by Drowning Pool ends up playing on the speakers and the crowd are very much booing incredibly loudly seeing this woman come out right now, and knowing who she was for the past few months she has been here, they are very much not looking forward to hearing her annoying voice and what she has to say for herself. Raeangel Guzman slowly came out with a confident step and a confident look on her face, looking around while she walked out to the ramp and basically ignoring the crowd booing heavily at her and trying to break her concentration, she had a lot in her mind right now and a lot to complain about from everybody around her, and she is NOT going to let any of the stupid people in the crowd try to ruin her mood because of them trying to get her riled up in any way, she has a message to look forward to and she is going to make sure everyone around her hears her.)
Eve: Well, here we have one of the women competing for the Specialists Championship at Territorial Invasion, Raeangel Guzmán! She has been trying her best to let everyone know what kind of person and wrestler she is for the past few months, and it is easy to say for now that uh… she is not exactly the most pleasant to be fair!
Deadprez: You could say that for most of the people in the roster but you can’t deny at all that despite her awful attitude, there is a reason why she ended up getting the Specialists Championship title shot at Territorial Invasion, and despite most people not wanting to see her there at all, she has been showing up and showing out in almost every match she has been in despite how annoying she is, so I am sure those three women will do the dance at the event.
Gavin Kirkland: AND I am looking forward to dancing with Rae-Rae once I hone my spanish! I do really need to find that Spanish for Dummies book…
(Raeangel continued and walked down the ramp, waving away the people around her and keeping that shit eating grin on her face while she made her way to the ring, moving quickly through ringside to grab a microphone and then moving once again to roll inside of the ring. She got up and casually walked around, enjoying her attempts at trying to rile the people around her up, and once her music ended up dying down. She got in the middle of the ring and cleared her throat.)
Raeangel Guzman: Ehem.
Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
(Raeangel simply laughed and shook her head as the crowd continued to boo, before she spoke up.)
Raeangel Guzman: I suggest all of you are able to save the oxygen in your lungs before all of you completely waste it, believe me, I know I am in necessary in the lives of all of you so you can continue to live and you can use me as some kind of symbol for all of you to push your anger on, but I am limited after all, and I won’t last long if all of you small brained people continue to waste me.
(She only got the crowd riled up even more and they were all able to continue to boo, Raeangel shaking her head and then getting to continue talking, shrugging in response.)
Raeangel Guzman: You see what I am able to do with me simply speaking a few words in this microphone and getting a reaction simply with my existence and me staking what is supposed to be mine, what I truly want in my grasp and nobody else deserves, and that is what I plan to do coming out here and looking forward to be able to achieve when going towards Territorial Invasion, respect, genuine praise from all of you insects who sit there in that crowd. But it does make me wonder sometimes how things would go if all of you were just able to understand the greatness that I show off simply by standing in front all of you and saying just a few words, all of you should be truly groveling at my feet and understand the PRODIGY that you have in front of you, but sadly, that is never going to happen, after various years have passed and I have won several championships here in EAW to my name, all of you are still going to continue hating and never recognize how amazing I could truly be, and believe me, if you think I will ever be affected by that kind of truth, then you are wrong in every way, I am going to be the happiest woman in the world when I go and win my first championship in just the first few months of my company and I completely get rid of the clown and that emo girl away from your screens and a REAL champion can take the mantle of the Specialists Champion.
(Raeangel keeps a big grin on her face as she says all of this while she continues.)
Raeangel Guzman: And I know all of you are so salty as hell about this kind of fact that all of you are going to be grasping at straws and trying to make things up that are not true about me, it has been done since the first day I was here that all of you thought I was with La Familia simply by just being there at the right place right time, and then when I actually allied with them, all of you are trying to lie and trying to make up shit about me that I am not capable of succeeding by myself. El Oxigeno does not need to hear any of your clearly wrong opinions. Because since the first day all of you have tried to act like I am just another rookie, that I am talking out of my ass every time I go out here, and I am sure that is the same that Daniella and KASAI have felt since when we first met, one of them is a weirdo, the other one looks like a vampire from Twilight, and then they try to underplay me and not give me the attention that I deserve for all of the attention and press I am giving to this match in the first place? They should be grateful that they added me to this match because no one would even dare to even watch those two of them wrestle a match all by themselves.
(The crowd booed yet again at the kind of insult that she just threw at her two competitors, she once again shrugs and then speaks again.)
Raeangel Guzman: I simply can’t win with any of you and believe me, I am not going to try now, that is why I needed to send a message last Voltage and try to lay those women out, but they had to bring out security to stop me from beating their ass so bad they ended up gifting me the championship instead, but I am such a fighting future champion that I am even going to fight me to earn the championship all by myself and then be able to reach new heights with it, no matter what you try to tell towards me, no matter how much you loathe me or hate me, or wished for me to never exist again, you will have to deal with the beautiful truth that at Territorial Invasion you are going to see a new Specialists Champion and it is going to be Raeangel Guzmán! Nothing is going to stop me; nothing is going to prevent the future to be all about me.
Raeangel Guzman: Enjoy these next two shows, because the one after Territorial Invasion I will personally make sure it is hours of me saying “I TOLD YOU SO!”.
(Raeangel ended up dropping the microphone and spread her arms to the side in an incredibly confident manner, the crowd once again booing incredibly loudly, her music once again picked back up and then she moved and rolled out of the ring, she then began to walk slowly up the ramp with her back turned towards the entrance as Showdown fades away in that scene to an ad for Territorial Invasion.)
(As Showdown returns from the ad, the camera pans to Gina ROmano as she is ready to announce the participants to the next match.)
Gina Romano: THIS MATCH IS SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL…
Crowd: ONE FALL!
(‘STFU’ by Rina Sawayama plays as Miku Sakai makes her entrance, Miku heads straight to the ring with Aria following right behind her.)
Gina Romano: INTRODUCING FIRST! ACCOMPANIED BY ARIA LESTRADE… FROM FUKUI, JAPAN!… WEIGHING IN AT 110 POUNDS!… MIKUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!… SAKAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(“Prices” by Lil Uzi Vert began to replace Maki’s music, he stood on stage for a moment as soon as he walked out, he took in the crowd and then directed his focus to his opponent in the ring. He then starts to make his way down the ramp.)
Gina Romano: Introducing the challenger, from Boston, Massachusetts, weighting in at 220 pounds! THE RULER OF EVERYTHING!
( DING! DING! DING! )
Gavin Kirkland: Here we go, Ruler takes on Miku Sakai with Aria Lestrade at ring side and Harper Lee joining us along with Ryan Wilson!
Harper Lee: Let’s hope this doesn’t take too long, I could be doing better things then watching a Ruler match right next to Ryan.
Ryan Wilson: Like what? What possibly could you be doing?
Harper Lee: I don’t know, watching paint dry.
Eve: The match starts off with Ruler knocking Maki down with a shoulder tackle! And look at this– instead of getting up and hitting back harder, Maki rolls out of the ring! Careful consideration from Maki Sakai maybe. She rolls out of the ring, looking at Ruler and shaking her head in disagreement. Screaming at the official to get some control over Ruler before she gets back into the ring. Harsher words have probably been said from people like Maki Sakai to the officials, as she slowly climbs up on the apron, enters the ring once more– BUT ACCESS DENIED AS RULER SUPERKICKS HER OFF THE APRON! HE GOT ALL OF THAT ONE! Right on the chin of Maki, as Ruler rolls out of the ring – glaring at Maki Sakai is scrunched up in the corner. Ruler is gonna make this one as quickly and as painful as possible for Maki Sakai.. AS HE HITS HER WITH A KNEE AGAINST THE TURNBUCKLE POST!
Ryan Wilson: OH! I felt that from over here, Ruler has a killer offense and some strong strikes.
Harper Lee: Mine are better, if I hit it the Maki wouldn’t be conscious. I guess that’s just the skill gap between me and Ruler.
Deadprez: Getting Maki back into the ring, dragging her in the middle of the ring and hooking the leg!
ONE!
TWO!!
…
THR—
Gavin Kirkland: Maki Sakai got the shoulder up, but it doesn’t at all really give her the proper advantage as we tread forth into this match, as Maki rolls over to the other side of the ring, and- is Aria calling the referee over to check on Maki? The referee is tending to Maki as confusion is setting in- RULER IS THE ONE CAUGHT, AS MAKI USES IT TO HER ADVANTAGE, PUSHING THE REFEREE IN THE LINE OF FIRE BEFORE RAKING RULER IN THE EYES! The tactics from Maki Sakai and Aria, seems to be the theme of the game, as Ruler can’t see from the eye rake, the underhanded tactics with zero remorse from Maki Sakai- AND A CHOP BLOCK DISABLES HIS KNEE! MAKI SAKAI GOES FOR THE KNEE OF RULER, AS RULER IS DOWN AND CRAWLS TO THE CORNER. Maki Saki is catching some momentum now, as Ruler is in danger for the first time in this match, as Maki Sakai has him right where she wants him.
Eve: AND A RUNNING UPPERCUT IN THE CORNER TAKES OUT RULER! Maki Sakai has swung the momentum in her favor quick enough here, as she has truly started to make a case for herself. Maki has newfound momentum, and with Ruler sitting in the corner? Maki definitely has to capitalize on this window, as she backs up in the ring, glaring at Kevin in the corner… AS SHE HITS KEVIN OWENS WITH HER KNEES IN THE CORNER! AN ACT OF REVENGE FROM MAKI! Just like that, the mind games from Maki Sakai have put her in this fight, as she grabs Ruler, hooking the leg right here!
ONE!
…
TWO!!
…
THRE—
Gavin Kirkland: No, not even close as Ruler gets the shoulder up! But wait a second. Maki is pinning him again?
ONE!
…
TWO-
…
Gavin Kirkland: IT DIDN’T WORK. Maki is sending a bit of a mental message, she is gonna do anything to put Ruler out– she goes for the cover again?
ONE-
Gavin Kirkland: Ruler has shown resilience and he isn’t gonna be put down from a few smacks across the jaw! Finally, Maki realizes that, and she is moving onto something else!
Ryan Wilson: Maki got to try something else if she wants to get that pinfall. She definitely didn’t do enough damage to warrant a victory.
Harper Lee: Hey, maybe if she pins him again it will work…what a dumbass.
Eve: “Sending a message” has been the name of the game, as Maki Sakai looks at Ruler slowly rising up to his feet, he has to keep limiting the chances that Ruler has, AND THAT INVOLVES TAKING RISK AS MAKI SAKAI THROWS HERSELF TOWARDS RULER! A back body drop from Ruler reinserts herself back on the offense, as Maki Sakai is flung onto the ground, as she is holding his back.. Ruler starts to materialize something again, as he stands up.. regaining composure.. But maybe not for long, as Maki Sakai pulls herself back up, looking to hop into the fight and bring it to Ruler– BUT RULER IS A BELIEVER OTHERWISE, AS HE HITS MAKI SAKAI WITH AN IMPALER DDT THAT SPIKES HER ON THE MAT! Maki Sakai did a nice little flip there, AS RULER HOOKS THE LEG!
ONE!
…
TWO!!
…
THR—
Deadprez: BUT MAKI SAKAI GETS THE SHOULDER UP! But look! Ruler covers her again!
ONE!
…
TWO!!
…
THR—
Gavin Kirkland: Ruler showing that he can do the exact same thing that Maki Sakai wanted, as Maki lays there in the middle of the ring…Ruler exits the ring now, as he ascended to the turnbuckle looking down at Sakai…GOING FOR A FROG SPLASH- BUT MAKI SAKAI MOVED OUT OF THE WAY, AS RULER HIT THE MAT! A not so precise and well landing for the challenger, as Maki Sakai slowly pulls herself up using the turnbuckle, but Ruler is mirroring her opposite. Ruler took a nasty landing on the chest there, but the fight in Ruler can overcome anything. Maki Sakai and Ruler turn the attention back towards one another, as they seek to try and follow up on the onslaught–
Eve: OKAY THAT WAS COOL, MAKI SAKAI WITH A GIANT LEAPING PUNCH ONTO RULER! RULER GOES DOWN, AS MAKI FALLS INTO THE COVER!
ONE!
…
TWO!!
…
THRE—
Eve: NO! RULER GETS OUT AND KEEPS THIS MATCH ALIVE! But you can see some anger in Maki Sakai, as she slaps the mat! She is asking the referee if it was three or not, she feels she should be handed the win right now! That was only a count of two however, but it seems as if that was never a caution, as Maki marches back up in the corner, looking to wrap this one up– Surely this won’t be the end of Ruler’ chances so quickly, as Ruler slowly rises to his feet, AND MAKI SAKAI ASCENDS– INTO A SUPERKICK FROM RULER! Maki is woozy, as she manages to stick on her feet– BUT RULER WITH A BACKSTABBER DISMANTLES HER! AND HE GOES FOR THE COVER!
Harper Lee: WEAK! Come on, that was barely a backstabber. A pat on the back looks more devastating!
ONE!
…
TWO!!
…
THRE—
Gavin Kirkland: NOT CLOSE ENOUGH! I won’t deny here, I was expecting Ruker to walk this one home, but Maki Sakai is showing a tough fight, escaping all that Rer has thrown at her, but she is in a tough spot, and Ruler has to just put her away here from this point forth. And it looks like he’s trying to put her away right here and now as Ruler has grabbed onto the legs of Maki, looking to flip her over for a Boston Crab! Ruler is looking to tap Maki out right here and now, but Sakai isn’t letting up and- OH! OH! MAKI WITH THE ROLL UP!
ONE!
…
TWO!!
…
THR—
Eve: Ruler with the shoulder up, it’s gonna take a lot more than a quick roll up to put down Ruler here tonight! The challenger is staying resilient. Both competitors quickly get up to their feet after the pinfall and here comes Ruler, running right at Maki and throwing haymaker after haymaker! Maki is definitely getting rocked by those as she stumbles back into the corner! Ruler is ready to keep throwing those bombs in the corner but wait! Maki Sakai ducks under one of the punches just narrowly and Ruler is sent into the corner, turning around! Now, Sakai is trying to fight Ruler, but Ruler is fast, throwing his hands out and pushing Maki away from him… but Sakai doesn’t let up! Quickly running back at Ruler and jumping low with a low dropkick to the left knee of Ruler! Smart move from Sakai there!
Deadprez: Ruler drops down to the mat in the corner after that shot to his left knee, Sakai again showing some quick thinking to be able to get the better of Ruler as Maki quickly grabs a fist full of Ruler’s hair and brings him towards the center of the ring- What is Sakai thinking here?! She’s trying to take advantage of that shot to Ruler’s left knee as she drops Ruler down and goes for a Figure Four Leg Lock! BUT NO! Ruler won’t allow that as she brings her right leg and body up and quickly shoves Maki forwards and into the ropes, avoiding the Figure Four!
Gavin Kirkland: Ruler throws Maki into the ropes, Sakai rebounding and being sent into the arms of Ruler as The Ruler of Everything is looking to send Maki up and over with a German Suplex! The referee in front of Maki now- OH COME ON! RULER WAS GOING FOR A GERMAN SUPLEX BUT ARIA GOING BETWEEN THE ROPES STEATHLY AND BLASTED RULER WITH A LOW BLOW! The referee was too focused on Maki, not able to see it! Maki once again managing to make an advantage for herself by Aria playing dirty! And Maki might be able to win here as Maki quickly lands on Ruler with a SHARP ELBOW DROP TO THE CHEST OF RULER!
Gavin Kirkland: BUT THAT ISN’T IT AS SAKAI QUICKLY ROLLS THROUGH, LEAPING ONTO THE TOP ROPE BEFORE LANDING ON RULER WITH ANOTHER BIG ELBOW DROP! Agility from Sakai and it might win her the match here as she goes for the pinfall!
ONE!
…
TWO!!
…
THR—
Eve: RULER GETS HIS SHOULDER UP! Maki is using every trick in the book and it is not going so well for him, Ruler still managing to avoid defeat. Maki clearly looks frustrated here! She’s been weaseling her way through this match, having cheated on two occasions with that eye poke and low blow by Aria and Ruler is still finding a way to power out! Now, Sakai is resorting to slapping Ruler on the ground now, she’s desperate! I’ll give her credit for being able to survive this long in the ring with Ruler. Sakai picks Ruler up and is looking to bring him towards the corner, Ruler brought up onto the top rope and I think we’re about to see it…
Deadprez: I’ll be the one to say it, Maki hooks Ruler’s arm over her shoulder as he looks to lift him up for her signature SUPERPLEX! Maki lands the Suplex perfectly and now looks to go for the Falcon Arrow… BUT WAIT! AS RULER IS BROUGHT TO HIS FEET FOR THE FALCON ARROW, SHE PLANTS HER FEET FIRM INTO THE MAT BEFORE QUICKLY LIFTING MAKI UP AND COUNTERING WITH A NECKBREAKER! DROPPING HER DOWN ON HIS KNEE! BOTH COMPETITORS GO DOWN! Ruler is still feeling the effects of that Superplex while Maki is feeling the firsthand effects of that vicious neck breaker!
Ryan Wilson: JEEZ! That Neckbreaker could put anyone on a stretcher! I actually hope that Maki is ok.
Harper Lee: I hope Maki’s neck is broken and Ruler broke his knee doing it.
Gavin Kirkland: Aria is now trying to rally Miku back to her feet, slapping the apron trying to get something started- wait a minute. Look at the ramp! What is going on?
Eve: Six hooded druids are slowly coming down to the ring, spooking out Aria enough for her to step away from ringside! Ruler and Maki both confused! Watching these druids surround ringside! Ruler getting up first, Maki slowly getting back to her feet. Looking at the weirdness all around them. The good news for Ruler is that he won’t have to worry about Aria poking her nose in this match anymore. She is scared to death of these druids! She won’t even peek her head out from the time keepers nest. They don’t seem to be moving anytime soon, staring and watching as the match slowly-
Gavin Kirkland: MAKI ROLLING RULER UP! GRABBING RULER BY THE TRUNKS! THE REFEREE DOESN’T SEE IT!
ONE!
…
TWO!!
…
THREE-
Eve: RULER MANAGING TO KICK OUT! Both competitors get to their knees slowly but surely, both clearly worse for wear but Ruler seems to have more life in himself as he begins to throw bomb after bomb straight towards the head of Maki whilst on her knees. Each Forearm is harder than the last, colliding right with the head of Maki as Ruler slowly gets up to his feet, looking down at Maki and grabbing a fist full of her hair! Ruler looking to end it right here and now as he throws Maki into the ropes and looks to send her up and down with a POP-UP POWERBOMB- BUT OH! MAKI JUMPS OVER RULER AND… RUNS RIGHT INTO THE OFFICIAL! The official is down and Maki looks shocked but she doesn’t have much time as Ruler quickly turns Maki around and goes for a REVOLUTIONIZER!
Deadprez: MAKI SAKAI IS KNOCKED OUT! RULER HAS A CHANCE TO WIN THE MATCH! BUT THE REFEREE IS DOWN- Wait, where did Harper go? Wait there she is! Harper Lee jumping into the ring and knocking Ruler to the ground! She starts punching down on Ruler, making this match all about her- and it looks like Ryan Wilson isn’t going to let this happen! Running into the ring and going after Harper Lee! Both exchanging blows! Brawling out in the center of the ring, this match has gotten out of control! Between the Druids still standing there and them fighting! I have no idea what to focus on!
Gavin Kirkland: Focus on the referee getting back into the ring, seeing that things are no longer in his control. It looks like he is calling for the bell!
( DING! DING! DING! )
Deadprez: This match is over with no winner! All thanks to Harper Lee and Ryan! Mostly Harper! Ruler gets out of the ring and it looks like Aria is helping Maki out of the ring now that the Druids are cleared! Ryan swings and misses Harper, she ducks under- BACKSTABBER! “HOUSE OF BALLOONS”! HARPER LEE MANAGING TO TAKE DOWN RYAN! SHE IS STANDING TALL! I CAN’T BELIEVE SHE DERAILED EVERYTHING!
Eve: She was tired of watching the match and wanted to get involved, showing Showdown once again why she is the Star- OH MY! POISONRANA FROM BEHIND! IT’S TLA! IT’S THE ANSWER WORLD CHAMPION! HARPER LEE ROLLING OUT OF THE RING AND DROPPING TO THE FLOOR!
Gavin Kirkland: No matter when and where, TLA will always be there to show everyone who runs things around here. Now it looks like he is going to speak his mind, now that he has effectively cleared the chaos!
TLA: Let me make one thing clear: This goes out to Ruler, Ryan Wilson and especially to Harper Lee. While I am holding this belt, while I am the Answer World Champion — this little chaotic game that we are playing won’t continue under my watch. I had it up to here with each and every one of you and at Territorial Invasion — I am going to remind you why I hold this belt and I am going to show you all why I maintain the peace on this brand. If you want to call the shots, if you want to be the one standing in this ring standing high and mighty. Then I suggest giving it your all at Territorial Invasion, cause when you have a chance to take a shot at the king…you better not miss.
(TLA tosses the microphone and raises the Championship. His theme blasts throughout the arena, as he celebrates with his title. Harper Lee watches leaned against the barricade, Ruler watching from the stage and Ryan leaned against the announce table. The scene then fades to a commercial break.)
*as Showdown returns from the commercial break, the camera pans to Gina Romano ready to announce the introductions for the next match.)
Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen… The following Singles Match is scheduled for ONE FALL!!!
Crowd: ONE FALL!!!
(‘Bad Blood’ by Taylor Swift ft. Kendrick Lamar plays throughout the arena as the fans erupt into cheers at the sight of Auburn Ware. Auburn Ware makes her way down the ring with a big smile while shaking and slapping as many hands as she can.)
Gino Romano: Introducing first… From Bulawayo, Zimbabwe… Weighing in at 119 lbs… She is “The Prodigy”… AUBUUUUUUUUUUUUUURN WAAAAAAAAAAARE!!!
(Auburn Ware gets inside the ring as she starts warming it up before her team is soon replaced with ‘GOSSIP’ by Maneskin can be heard being played throughout the arena as the fans start to boo loudly before Aria Lestrade comes out by herself seeing as Miku Sakai is banned from ringside.)
Gina Romano: Introducing her opponent… From Chandler , Arizona… Weighing in at 110 lbs… She is “THE PARIAH”… ARIAAAAAAAAAA LESTRADEEEEEEEE!!!
(Ding! Ding! Ding!)
Eve: We are on our way as both elitists in the ring quickly start things off as they start things up with a Collar-And-Elbow lock, but both quickly break away from it as Aria Lestrade is able to get a hold of Auburn Ware and Irish Whips her to the other side of the ring! Auburn Ware rebounds off the ropes as Aria Lestrade waits for her, but Auburn is able to roll off Aria’s back to the other side as she grabs onto the ropes quickly and without wasting any time goes for a Springboard Spinning Heel Kick! Auburn was able to connect as Aria was greeted by it as she tried to turn around, but now Aria Lestrade is rolling out of the ring to try and catch her breath… It seems however that Auburn Ware doesn’t want this match to be slowed down anytime soon as she quickly starts to run the ropes, rebounds off them, and she’s looking to hit Aria with a beautiful Suicide Dive through the middle rope…
Gavin Kirkland: CRASHING ONTO ARIA LESTRADE AS SHE SENDS HER BACK FIRST ONTO THE BARRICADE! This match has started off so quickly and I don’t think there’s any slowing it down as Auburn pulls Aria a bit away from the barricade before she starts to climb on it, runs a bit on it towards Aria’s direction, and HITS Aria with a “gone girl” Diving Hurricanrana off the barricade sending her back first on the ring apron! You know if Miku Sakai wasn’t banned from ringside things would be way different and let’s just say there would be more eyes on this match because I mean three beautiful women sell more than just two no?!? You guys wouldn’t get it… but It looks like Auburn Ware was able to get Aria back inside the ring as she’s looking to keep this fast paced action going for a quick Standing Moonsault Senton, but Aria has her knees up as Auburn Ware goes back first onto them! This gives Aria Lestrade the opening she needed as she quickly starts running towards the ropes and goes for a Springboard Moonsault from the second rope that lands flawlessly on Auburn!
Deadprez: Aria finally gets back in the match with some offense as she positions Auburn Ware before once again running towards the ropes, rebounding off them, and connecting with a NASTY Shining Wizard to poor Auburn Ware! Lord have mercy on that girl because if she keeps getting hit like that it may be a short career for her. Using her time wisely, Aria starts to pull Auburn back up to her feet before Aria Lestrade once again using the ropes to her advanced to connect with a Springboard Arm Drag that sends Auburn across the ring, but not strong enough to keep her down as she’s able to stay on one knee while trying to get back up… Aria peeps game as she quickly runs towards the kneeling Auburn Ware looking to connect with a NASTY Bicycle Knee Stri- AUBURN ABLE TO USE ARIA’S MOMENTUM AGAINST HER AS AUBURN WARE THROWS HER OUT OF THE RING AND QUICKLY RUNS THE ROPES AS WE ARE KEEPING THINGS UP IN THE AIR AND VERY FAST!
Eve: Auburn Ware once again connects to the outside of the ring with a Tope Con Hilo causing both these elitists to go down to the ground! Auburn Ware of course got back up first seeing as she crash landed onto Aria Lestrade. Picking Aria back up, Auburn throws her back inside the ring before getting back up on the ring apron in quick fashion, and just as quickly gets up to the top rope while Aria Lestrade, still a bit dazed, slowly picks herself up with the help of the ropes near her… Aria turns around and is met with a Top Rope Clothesline that grounds Aria down on the mat giving enough time for Auburn to give it another go with the Standing Moonsault Senton… She connects this time around and quickly goes for a cover on Aria Lestrade as the referee starts to check the count!!!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOO-!!!
Eve: A kick out before the two count as the match continues on while Auburn Ware is still on the offense and she intends to keep things that way as she grabs onto Aria Lestrade, picks her up, and goes for a German Suplex of some sorts… She picks her up and IT CONNE- NO! ARIA BEING ABLE TO FLIP AND LAND ON HER FEET BEFORE IT CAN CONNECT! From behind now Aria connecting with a Backstabber to get back in on the offensive side of things as she Kip-Ups right afterwards to quickly deliver a Standing Moonsault to Auburn Ware as it seems both elitists are trying their hardest out here tonight especially Aria Lestrade with her huge inter brand match at Territorial Invasion against Diamond Dixon and Holly Arrow!
Gavin Kirkland: Aria Lestrade has a lot of pressure on her tonight which I could alleviate if asked too… I mean a big match at Territorial Invasion while trying to beat Auburn Ware tonight, that is a lot of work, but if she can pick up some momentum here tonight she has a shot to bring a big “dubya” as the kids say to our beautiful blue brand of Showdown at Territorial Invasion! Though right now her focus tonight is making sure she beats Auburn Ware as Aria Lestrade starts to pick up Auburn from the ground and quickly connects with a German Suplex that sends Auburn near the ropes! Not wasting time, Aria makes her way quickly to the outside part of the ring apron, grabs onto the ropes, and goes for a beautiful Springboard 450 Splash! ARIA IS ABLE TO LAND- NO! AUBURN WARE HAS HER KNEES UP AS SHE PUSHED ARIA OFF OF HER BEFORE SHE GETS BACK UP ONTO HER FEET WITH A KIP-UP! These two ladies have been killing it so far tonight as Auburn in quick fashion starts to head to the top rope… As she finally gets up there she starts to… WALK ON THE ROPE BEFORE LEAPING UP AND GOING FOR A SPRINGBOARD SHOOTING STAR PRESS! “A WALK TO REMEMBER” AS SHE CALLS IT CONNECTS AND QUICKLY NOW GOES FOR THE COVER AS THE REFEREE GOES CHECK IT OUT!!!
Referee: ONEEEEEEE!!!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Referee: THRE-!!!
Deadprez: A kick out at two as the match continues on and the young upstart Auburn Ware shrugging off the failed attempt at a pinfall victory as quickly she picks up Aria Lestrade and attempts at another German Suplex… Successfully being able to connect it as she sends Aria near the corner! Aria slowly makes her way back up to her feet thanks to the support and help of the ropes near her, but Auburn Ware is more than ready as she quickly runs towards Aria. Aria turns around, but is quickly put back down as Auburn Ware connects with a Running Jumping Knee Strike before pushing Aria Lestrade away from the corner causing her to fall flat on her back. Awww man, it seems Auburn Ware is more than ready to pick up the win here tonight as she climbs to the top rope once again, sees the opportunity, and she’s going for a Top Rope Moonsault Senton on Aria… She takes the dive, flips for the moonsault, and…
Eve: ARIA LESTRADE MOVES OUT OF THE WAY LAST MINUTE AS SHE ROLLS OUT OF THE RING!!! AUBURN GOES BACK FIRST TO THE MAT WHILE ARIA QUICKLY PICKS HERSELF, CLIMBS UP TO THE RING APRON, GRABS ONTO THE ROPES, AND CONNECTS WITH A FLAWLESS SPRINGBOARD 450 SPLASH AS SHE GOES FOR THE COVER ON AUBURN NOW! THE REFEREE SLIDES INTO POSITION TO START THE COUNT!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEE!!!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Referee: THR-!!!
Eve: Auburn Ware kicking out at two as she’s still got energy to keep on fighting! Aria picks up Auburn Ware as she quickly throws her out of the ring before she quickly starts to run the ropes while Auburn Ware picks herself back up with help from our announcers table. Aria Lestrade rebounds off the ropes now as she quickly makes her way through the middle rope while Auburn is back up and turns around to be greeted with a Sucide Dive transitioned into a Tornado DDT that drops Auburn head first onto the floor!
Referee: ONE!
Referee: TWO!
Referee: THREE!
Gavin Kirkland: The referee starts the count, but it doesn’t seem to be a concern for these two VERY beautiful women as Aria Lestrade wastes no time, quickly getting up on the ring apron, grabbing onto the ropes, and going for a Springboard Moonsaultl on Auburn Ware as it connects! Aria looks very satisfied with how things have gone as she picks up Auburn Ware and throws her back into the ring where Auburn starts to pick herself up, Aria now sliding back into the ring, runs past the slightly dazed Auburn, and it looks like she’s going to connect with “Zircon Injection” as she goes for the Handspring Cutter! Aira is now midway through the Handspring BUT AUBURN IS ABLE TO INTERRUPT THE MOVE BEFORE ARIA COULD CONNECT WITH IT BY CONNECTING ON ARIA’S BACK WITH A BEAUTIFUL SPINNING HEEL KICK!!! This match has been a true showcase of speed and agility from both ladies here tonight! Yet both of them want the same thing and that’s to pick up the win here tonight as Auburn Ware picks up Aria and hits her with a VICIOUS European Uppercut that sends Aria stumbling towards the ropes!
Deadprez: I think Auburn packed a bigger punch on that attack than we expected as it had enough power to cause Aria to bounce back, but Auburn Ware is quick to put Aria down on the mat with a real NASTY Spinning Backfist right on the jaw! Auburn Ware sees a big opportunity here as she grabs Aria and picks her back up. Aria Lestrade is left stumbling a bit as she’s still groggy after that Spinning Backfist while Auburn takes a deep breathe and starts to run the ropes, running past Aria a few shades of what we saw Aria attempt a few minutes ago, and Auburn Ware looks to connect with “this girl” her signature Handspring Back Elbow combo! Auburn able to use the ropes to start the Handspring part of the move- ARIA THOUGH PLAYING POSSUM IT SEEMS AS SHE SHUTS IT DOWN WITH A SHOTGUN DROPKICK TO AUBURN’S BACK! NASTY STRAIGHT UP NASTY WORK HERE!!! Looks like Aria Lestrade wants to keep the offense as she quickly runs towards the ropes, rebounds off them, and connects with a Running Shooting Star Press on the grounded Auburn Ware!
Gavin Kirkland: Rather than going for the pin, it looks like Aria is looking for one big move to end things as she starts to pick up Auburn Ware from the hair and it looks like she’s setting up… “GLITCH IN THE MATRIX” AS THE BELLY-TO-BACK INVERTED MAT SLAM CONNECTS AND ARIA NOW ROLLING WITH AUBURN FOR THE PIN AS THE REFEREE STARTS THE COUNT! IS IT OVER FOR AUBURN WARE HERE TONIGHT?!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Referee: THREEEEEEEEEEEE-!!!
Gavin Kirkland: NOT JUST YET AS AUBURN WARE KICKS OUT BEFORE THE THREE COUNT BUT ARIA ISN’T FAZED AS SHE PUSHES AUBURN AWAY FROM HER BEFORE GETTING BACK UP! Aria heading to the nearest corner as she starts yelling at Auburn Ware to get up on her feet… Aria Lestrade perhaps looking to end things for good here tonight as Auburn slowly makes her way back up and Aria pulls on the ropes one last time before she starts running towards Auburn’s direction looking to connect with “GOD SHATTERING STAR” AS ARIA CONNECTS WITH THE RUNNING KNEE STR- AUBURN WARE MOVES OUT THE WAY LAST MINUTE AND ARIA IS LEFT ON THE MAT AS SHE ROLLS OUT TO SAFETY!!
Deadprez: Slowly getting back up on her feet, Aria Lestrade turns around and “the summer i turned pretty” as Auburn Ware successfully connects with the Springboard Meteora! What a NASTY landing, but Auburn Ware quickly picks up Aria and throws her back inside the ring as she wants to win the good ole fashion way. Auburn makes her way to the top rope now as she gets to the very top, takes a few seconds as she locks in on Aria Lestrade, and takes the dive looking to hopefully connect with the Moonsault Senton this time around… AS SHE DOES CONNECT THIS TIME AROUND before quickly picking up Aria and without hesitation connecting with “malibu rising” as Auburn connects with her signature Rolling Fireman’s Carry Slam! Auburn now goes for the cover; will this be it?!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Referee: THREEEEEEEEEE-!!!
Eve: A kick out before the three from Aria Lestrade as both these elitists aren’t willing to give up just yet! Auburn picks up Aria from the ground and starts to hook in “the lovely bones” finishing submission hold as both Aria and Auburn are down on the mat! It looks like Aria may be out, but Aria using her agility and flexibility to position herself for a pinfall on Auburn Ware as the referee starts the count!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Referee: THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-!!!
Eve: Auburn Ware is forced to break the hold before the three count as both elitists are now slowly getting back up, but what’s this now?!?
(The camera shot transitions to show Voltage’s own Diamond Dixon making her way through the crowd to her front row seat as she starts cheering on for Auburn Ware while on the opposite side the same can be seen as Dynasty’s own Holly Arrow makes her way to her front row seat as they’re focus on watching their opponent at Territorial Invasion, Aria Lestrade, in action.)
Gavin Kirkland: AM I IN HEAVEN PREZZY?!? SO MANY BEAUTIFUL WOMEN AROUND HOLD ME TIGHTLY BROTHER I FEEL LIKE I’M FAINTING!!!
Deadprez: Your ass ain’t fainting, you just one shameless ass dog, but we ain’t here to talk about you at all! We are here to focus on the action as it’s clear that Aria Lestrade has taken notice on the late arrivals here tonight maybe even distracting her a bit looking at them as Auburn tries to get Aria’s attention not trying to play dirty as she turns her around and quickly both elitists start trading blows back and forth before not too long Aria connects with a Superkick that sends Auburn towards the ropes, she rebounds, and Aria more than ready to connect with “Zircon Cutter” as the Cutter connects! Aria is now once again heading to the corner as she points at both Holly Arrow and Diamond Dixon as she yells at Auburn Ware to get back up as she is looking to connect with “God Shattering Star” here tonight… Auburn Ware gets up and Aria runs towards her looking to connect with the Running Knee Strike!
Eve: AUBURN WARE ROLLS OUT OF THE WAY QUICKLY GRABBING ONTO THE ROPE AS ARIA QUICKLY GETS BACK UP TO KEEP THE OFFENSE GOING, BUT IT’S TOO LATE AS AUBURN CONNECTS WITH “LESSONS IN CHEMISTRY”! WHAT A BEAUTIFUL 720 SPRINGBOARD TORNADO DDT AS AUBURN WARE NOW GOING FOR THE COVER! WILL THIS BE ALL IT TAKES?!?
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Referee: TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Referee: THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
(DING! DING! DING!)
Gina Romano: Here is your winner by submission… She is… “The Prodigy”…. AUBUUUUUUUURN WAAAAAAAAARE!!!
Gavin Kirkland: Wow… just… wow! Four beautiful women, an amazing match, and I’m still alive?!? Possibly the greatest Showdown match of all time unless you know… Even MORE women are added and perchance we get some beautiful guest commentators no?
Deadprez: Moving on from whatever THAT was… Both Aria Lestrade and Auburn Ware gave it their all for this very fast paced match, but at the end of the day Auburn Ware picked up the win while Aria Lestrade took an embarrassing loss in front of her Territorial Invasion.
Eve: Who’s to say if things could’ve gone different if Aria wasn’t slightly distracted on their arrival, but this is a huge win from Auburn Ware here tonight as she put in the work and earned this very deserving win here tonight!
(Auburn Ware is seen celebrating the win as she makes her way backstage while shaking some hands on her way out while the camera shot transitions to both Diamond Dixon and Holly Arrow looking at the downed Aria Lestrade slowly getting back up after her loss as the scene fades to elsewhere.)
(Showdown came back from commercials and it slowly tuned in back towards backstage, someone was slowly walking through the entrance and then simply walked through the hallways with a mostly neutral expression, of course that woman was Aria Lestrade after having her match with Auburn Ware, she ended up grabbing a towel that was nearby so she could clean herself from the sweat that she worked up from the match, she was unnaturally quiet right now considering how loud she has been the past few weeks, she was definitely pissed off, she was definitely full of anger right now but it was definitely a quiet anger in a sense, it was almost like she was trying to hold it back and letting it all out right now. She was just looking quickly to go back to the locker room, to find Miku and then get the hell out of there but Aria is very known for having a lot of bad luck and this time it was not going to be any different at all.)
(Just as she turned the corner to go back to the locker room and be done with all of this quick, out of fucking nowhere, Kyra Phillips ended up popping from that corner with the usual dumb smile she had on her face when making questions and preparing to do an interview. Once again a camera was yet again on Aria and she had to force herself to just put up with whatever is happening right now, she closed her eyes and tried her best to breathe in and out as Kyra suddenly started to speak up.)
Kyra Phillips: Aria! Sorry about suddenly rushing in like that, but I gotta get some quick questions in, how are you feeling after that match that you ended up having with Auburn Ware?
Aria Lestrade: …
(Aria was definitely not in the greatest mood, she was beyond pissed and she was trying her best to hide how she was feeling right now, how she was feeling after everything she had to deal with for the past few months and tonight, she once again wanted the whole Earth to open up and just swallow her up right now, she simply stayed in complete silence to the question that Kyra just asked her about and completely ignored her as Kyra blinked in a confused manner.)
Kyra Phillips: Uhm, Aria, everything alright?
Aria Lestrade: What do you think, Kyra? Of course, that I am not alright, of course that I am in the worst mood that I have ever been in a long time, do you think I actually want to take any interviews? Do you truly think that I want to be in front of this camera telling you the same shit over and over again? I am tired. I just do not want to deal with any more of this in any way. I don’t want any more stupid questions, I don’t want to give anymore stupid answers, can’t you see how much of a mess I am? Just…
(Aria grabbed at her hair and pulled on it slightly, just wanting to rip it off right then and there but she was able to control herself and once again her expression showed one without any emotion at all in it as she glared slowly at Kyra.)
Aria Lestrade: Just ask me anything else, please…
(Kyra looks slightly shocked and confused at what she saw but she nods slowly and tries her best to simply focus on making questions.)
Kyra Phillips: Understood uh… well, can you tell me about what has happened the last week when it comes to your opponents at Territorial Invasion? Any thoughts on them after everything?
(Aria was clearly out of it and trying more to contain her emotions as best as she could, she simply shook her head and then responded slowly.)
Aria Lestrade: You want me to truly be honest? Genuinely, fuck everything else that I said before, this is how I am truly feeling now, and this is how I truly think, you want me to talk about my opponents? Awesome then, I consider Holly genuinely one of my friends, after all of the bullshit that everyone has said about her and me suddenly piling up like that, she does not deserve what she has gone through, and even with the way I am acting right now and how all of you might see me right now, I am A HUMAN BEING! I HAVE FEELINGS! AND I HAVE A BRAIN! And despite me loathing some of you, I will never hate someone I consider a friend, so yeah, I am indeed heading into that match looking at her as an opponent, but I still consider her a friend, and that is never going to stop being wrong in any way. I am heading into that match feeling various feelings, but I still appreciate her for even giving me any kind of words in the first place. Diamond Dixon is one of the most overrated bitches to ever step foot in this company, and I don’t know what the fuck does she even do in the first place to even deserve the praise that she gets or the opportunities that she has to be able to be in this match, it is so genuinely stupid and it is genuinely incredible how much shit she continues talk and she cannot back up in any way, that is why I am going to make sure to carry out that objective and then beat her ass from post to post and then get the win for me.
Kyra Phillips: I.. see then, and now wondering if I can ask one more question or will you…
(Aria once again shoots her another glare towards Kyra, once again trying her best to not snap right then and there but she is slowly starting to slip out and not being able to control herself.)
Aria Lestrade: Are you sure you do not regret all the words that just came out of your mouth right now, Kyra? Do you think this is funny? Do you think it is fucking hilarious trying to play with my feelings right now?
Kyra Phillips: What??? No-
Aria Lestrade: Do you think I am a joke? Do you think I deserve what is happening to me right now? Everything, this whole place right now, this whole thing, whatever happened since the past few months… THIS IS BULLSHIT, KYRA, BULLSHIT!
(Aria got closer to Kyra in genuine anger and it looked like she was genuinely about to fight her, but Miku quickly came out of the locker room and moved quickly towards Aria to be able to grab her and pull her back to prevent her from attacking anyone right now. With Showdown fading away from the scene quickly and moving on after that to ringside.)
(The camera returns to the ring where Gina Romano is standing with a microphone as she is ready to begin the introductions for the next match.)
Gina Romano: Ladies and gentlemen, this next contest is scheduled for ONE FALL!
(‘Changed It’ by Nicki Minaj feat. Lil Wayne starts to play as the Universal Women’s Champion, Milli Banks enters the arena. She forgoes her standard entrance this week as she is being accompanied to the ring by her War Games teammates Veena Adams and Bronson Daniels. They all look ready to go as the trio head to the ring.)
Gina Romano: Introducing first and making her way to the ring! Being accompanied by Bronson Daniels and the National Elite Champion Veena Adams! From Brooklyn, New York! Weighing 135 pounds. Here is the reigning EAW UNIVERSAL WOMEN’S CHAMPION! “THE SUPERNOVA” MILLI BANKS!
Deadprez: Here comes the Universal Women’s Champion as she heads to the ring for singles action, and she isn’t coming alone. That might be the best strategy for Milli.
Gavin Kirkland: Milli is coming to the ring looking to build some more momentum as she, along with the lovely Veena and that screwup Bronson Daniels, head towards Territorial Invasion.
Eve: Bronson and Milli won a hard fought tag team victory over Cody Maverick and Donovan Duke of the Brand Warfare team. Can Milli make it two in a row in this match?
(Milli enters the ring as Veena and Bronson take their place at ringside. Milli takes her corner and raises her title high in the air before she hands it to the referee and her music is replaced by “Tear Away” by Drowning Pool. The cheers turn to boos as Raeangel Guzman enters the arena and she is flanked by La Familia. They all nod their heads in agreement as the head to the arena.)
Gina Romano: Introducing her opponent! Being accompanied to the ring by La Familia! From San Antonio, Texas! Weighing in at 120 pounds. Here is “EL OXÍGENO” RAEANGEL GUZMÁN!
Gavin Kirkland: Here comes the beautiful Raeangel Guzman as she is accompanied by La Familia. What solidarity is being shown even though La Familia has a big match later on tonight.
Eve: Solidarity my ass! They sure as hell didn’t show any solidarity earlier tonight when The Jaded Hearts beat the hell out of Elly Elle.
Deadprez: Speaking of, Elly has been taken to a local hospital and we will keep you posted on that. But right now, Raeangel is looking to pick up a huge victory as she heads towards her Specialists Championship match in a few weeks. Will she get the win?
(Raeangel enters the ring as La Familia once again take their place at ringside and Raeangel takes her corner and the entrance music fades off. The referee checks both competitors before they call for the bell.)
(DING! DING! DING!)
Eve: The bell has rung and this non title match is underway. Milli looks ready to lock up with Raeangel Guzman, but Guzman isn’t looking too anxious to meet Milli in the center of the ring
Deadprez: Milli goes right over to try and grab Guzman, BUT GUZMAN RUNS RIGHT OVER TO THE ROPES! THE REFEREE IS RIGHT THERE TO BLOCK MILLI!
Gavin Kirkland: Milli is beautiful, but she has got to let Guzman get ready. She just needs an extra moment to prepare herself.
Deadprez: Good gawd, Gavin. There are no time outs in wrestling, Dawg. Guzman had plenty of time to get ready. Now it’s time for action. Milli goes right back to the corner to grab Raeangel–
Eve: GUZMAN WITH A THUMB TO THE EYE AND THAT CAUGHT MILLI HARD! Milli is holding her eye in pain before Guzman grabs a handful of hair AND JUST TOSSES HER DOWN TO THE GROUND!
Gavin Kirkland: When you are outmatched in different aspects like Raeangel is right now with how experienced Milli is, you do what you have to do in order to even up the odds.
Eve: It’s still cheap and Guzman mounts Milli AND SHE STARTS CHOKING MILLI! HANDS ACROSS THE THROAT AS THE REFEREE IS TELLING GUZMAN TO STOP THE CHOKE!
Deadprez: The referee started a count and Raeangel released the choke on four before risking disqualification on five. She is pushing her luck early on in this match.
Gavin Kirkland: She is going against a World Champion right now. She has to do what she has to do. If it means walking the line of disqualification, then I hope she knows how to walk a tightrope.
Eve: She better be careful considering she’s in the ring with Milli and Milli is strictly business when that bell rings. Now Guzman has Milli by the hair again BEFORE SHE PULLS HER DOWN OVER HER KNEE INTO A BACKBREAKER!
Deadprez: When it comes to underhanded tactics, she is associating with the right people in La Familia. Now Milli is trying to get to her feet BUT GUZMAN IS RIGHT THERE PUTTING THE BOOTS TO THE UNIVERSAL WOMEN’S CHAMPION!
Gavin Kirkland: Her first major chance against Milli Banks and she is doing a great job thus far. I mean Raeangel could pull off the upset at the rate as Milli has rolled herself onto the apron.
Deadprez: Guzman is pulling Milli back to her feet on the apron AGAIN using the hair BUT MILLI CATCHES GUZMAN WITH A RIGHT HAND BEFORE CATCHING HER WITH A SHOULDER TACKLE THROUGH THE ROPES!
Eve: Guzman is staggered back as Milli runs over to the corner and quickly climbs to the top turnbuckle. Guzman turns around AND MILLI LEAVES THE TOP ROPE AND CATCHES GUZMAN IN THE FACE WITH A MISSILE DROPKICK!
Gavin Kirkland: Poor Raeangel was sent head over heels off the Missile Dropkick. Guzman is trying to get back to her feet AND MILLI CATCHES HER AGAIN WITH THE DOUBLE KNEE FACEBREAKER!
Eve: Guzman hits the mat hard off the facebreaker and Milli scrambles over to her and rolls her over before hooking her leg for the first cover of the match.
ONNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOO!
Deadprez: GUZMAN KICKS OUT AT TWO! Now Milli brings Guzman back to her feet and whips her to the ropes. Rae rebounds AND TRIES TO FIRE OFF A CLOTHESLINE THAT MILLI AVOIDS WITH THE MATRIX STYLE EVASION!
Gavin Kirkland: Milli bends back up after the evasion BEFORE SHE DOES A BACK HANDSPRING! GUZMAN TURNS AROUND AND SHE IS CAUGHT WITH THE BACK HANDSPRING ROUNDHOUSE KICK!
Eve: The kick caught Rae in the side of the head and it took her down to the mat. Milli is back on her feet AND SHE DRIVES HER KNEES INTO GUZMAN’S GUT! Now she rolls forward BEFORE DOING ANOTHER BACKFLIP–
Deadprez: SHE DROVE HER KNEES INTO RAEANGEL ONCE AGAIN! Milli calls that the “Bank Roll” and that could help Milli add a victory to her bank roll.
Gavin Kirkland: But Milli grabs Guzman and brings her up before hoisting her onto her shoulders BEFORE PLANTING GUZMAN WITH THE ROLLING FIREMAN’S CARRY!
Deadprez: Guzman is down AS MILLI JUMPS ONTO THE SECOND AND FLIPS BACK AS SHE LOOKS FOR THE MOONSAULT–
Eve: SHE GOT THE KNEES UP! GUZMAN GOT HER KNEES UP AND DROVE THEM RIGHT INTO THE RIBS OF THE UNIVERSAL WOMEN’S CHAMPION!
Gavin Kirkland: Milli didn’t see that coming as Guzman slowly gets back to her feet AND DROPS MILLI WITH A NECKBREAKER! Now she’s starting to build up the momentum to get her back into the match.
Eve: Milli is on her knees trying to recover and Guzman is right there ready to strike AND THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT SHE DOES WHEN SHE HITS THE BUZZSAW KICK! THAT CAUGHT MILLI RIGHT IN THE FACE!
Deadprez: Milli falls back and she is holding her nose in pain as Guzman quickly drops down and hooks the leg for the cover! That could have been a knockout shot!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWOOOOOO!
THHHHHHRRRRR-
Gavin Kirkland: MILLI KICKS OUT AT TWO AND GUZMAN IS NOT HAPPY ABOUT IT! Guzman looks like she wants to argue with the referee, but instead she drags Milli over to the corner and climbs up to the top rope.
Eve: Milli is starting to get back to her feet AND RAEANGEL JUMPS OFF THE TOP ROPE FOR THE DIVING HURRICANRANA—
Deadprez: MILLI CAUGHT HER! MILLI SHOWING SOME POWER AND TOSSES GUZMAN OFF OF HER AND GUZMAN LANDED ON HER FEET!
Gavin Kirkland: Guzman turns around AND SHE GRABS MILLI BY THE EYES AND JUST STARTS RAKING MILLI’S EYES! SHE’S CLAWING MILLI’S EYES OUT!
Deadprez: Milli was blinded for a moment after the eye rake and now Guzman has a waistlock AND SHE LIFTS MILLI UP FOR A GERMAN SUPLEX–
Eve: MILLI GRABS GUZMAN’S HEAD AT THE LAST SECOND AND MANAGES TO GET FREE AND COUNTER WITH A BULLDOG THAT PLANTS RAEANGEL FACE FIRST INTO THE MAT!
Gavin Kirkland: That’s Milli for you. Able to turn a negative moment into a positive. That’s how she has been so successful in her EAW career thus far as we hear Bronson and Veena cheering Milli on from ringside.
Eve: Guzman is trying to recover and she gets back up BUT MILLI HITS THE ROPES AND COMES BACK WITH A SLINGBLADE THAT TAKES GUZMAN BACK DOWN! Guzman is trying to sit up–
Deadprez: MILLI FOLLOWS UP WITH A BASEMENT DROPKICK TO HER FACE! Milli drags Guzman to the corner as Milli jumps on the second rope AND HITS GUZMAN WITH THE MOONSAULT FROM THE SECOND ROPE! LEG’S HOOKED FOR THE COVER!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOO!
THHHHHHHHHRRRRRRRREEEEEEE-
Gavin Kirkland: GUZMAN KICKS OUT AT TWO! Close near fall for Milli and Milli brings her back to her feet. MILLI IS LIFTING UP RAEANGEL FOR A NORTHERN LIGHTS SUPLEX–
Eve: GUZMAN IS IN THE AIR AND SHE IS ABLE TO SPIN AROUND AND COUNTER WITH A MODIFIED SATELLITE DDT! MILLI SPIKED ON HER HEAD!
Deadprez: Guzman is now back in control as she drags Milli over to the ropes–
Gavin Kirkland: GUYS LOOK! LOOK WHO IS COMING DOWN THE ENTRANCE RAMP!
(The crowd started cheering as the Specialists Champion KASAI starts walking down the entrance ramp. She has her title on her shoulder as she reaches ringside.)
Deadprez: IT’S KASAI! THE SPECIALISTS CHAMPION IS HERE AT RINGSIDE AND SHE WANTS A BIRD’S EYE VIEW OF ALL THE ACTION, ESPECIALLY SINCE RAEANGEL IS ONE OF HER CHALLENGERS AT TERRITORIAL INVASION!
Eve: Guzman catches KASAI as she backs up to the ropes AND SHE RUNS TO MILLI BEFORE ROLLING AND LANDING ON MILLI WITH THE ROLLING THUNDER SENTON!
Gavin Kirkland: WAIT A SECOND! THE CROWD IS CHEERING ONCE AGAIN… GUYS! LOOK BEHIND US! LOOK WHO’S COMING THROUGH THE CROWD! ANOTHER DAMN INVADER OF SHOWDOWN!
(The crowd starts to cheer again as the Dynasty Challenger for the Specialists Championship, Daniella Atlas comes down through the crowd as she jumps over the barricade and reaches ringside.)
Eve: IT’S NOT AN INVADER, YOU IDIOT! THAT’S DYNASTY’S DANIELLA ATLAS! SHE’S THE THIRD COMPETITOR IN THE SPECIALISTS TITLE MATCH! YOU DIDN’T THINK THAT DANIELLA WOULD BE LEFT OUT OF THIS!
Deadprez: Now Guzman sees that both of her opponents are at ringside and that doesn’t make Guzman very happy at the moment, but she can’t let them get in her head right now with an important match like this going on.
Gavin Kirkland: Rae brings Milli back to her feet as she backs up to gain some speed AS SHE RUNS PAST MILLI AND USES THE SECOND TURNBUCKLE AS A SPRINGBOARD–
Eve: GUZMAN IS LOOKING FOR “ESTAS FUERA”! SHE WAS TRYING TO THE MODIFIED SHINING WIZARD, BUT MILLI WAS ABLE TO TURN AROUND AND DELIVER A DROPKICK TO THE RIBS!
Deadprez: Guzman is on her knees as she holds her ribs in pain AND HERE COMES MILLI–
Gavin Kirkland: DOUBLE KNEE FACEBUSTER! “DIAMONDS DANCING” FOR MILLI AS RAEANGEL’S FACE BOUNCES OFF THE CANVAS!
Deadprez: DIRECT HIT FOR MILLI AS MILLI DRAGS GUZMAN TO THE CENTER OF THE RING AND HOOKS THE LEG FOR THE COVER!
ONNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWOOOOOO!
THHHHHHHHRRRRREEEEEE!
Eve: GUZMAN BARELY GOT HER SHOULDER OFF THE CANVAS AS THE REFEREE WAS COMING DOWN FOR THE THREE AND MILLI ENDS UP WITH A NEAR FALL!
Deadprez: Milli is still in control of the match as she brings Raeangel back to her feet and whips her to the ropes. Guzman hits one side and Milli runs to the other–
Gavin Kirkland: MILLI GRABS GUZMAN AND PLANTS HER WITH A RUNNING FACEBUSTER! GUZMAN KISSES THE CANVAS ONCE AGAIN!
Deadprez: Guzman is trying to get back to her feet and Milli grabs her by the neck. Milli hooks one of the legs AND SPINS OUT INTO THE “COMET CRUSHER”! FISHERMAN’S NECKBREAKER BY THE UNIVERSAL WOMEN’S CHAMPION!
Eve: Guzman is down and Milli brings her back to her feet before lifting Guzman up and gets her into the Gory Position–
Gavin Kirkland: Guzman with elbows to the head and she gets free. Milli quickly turns around AND CLOTHESLINES GUZMAN OVER THE TOP ROPE–
Eve: GUZMAN LANDS ON THE APRON! Milli tries to throw a right hand, BUT GUZMAN DUCKS AND DELIVERS A SHOULDER TACKLE THROUGH THE ROPES!
Deadprez: Milli was doubled over after the shoulder tackle AS GUZMAN SLINGS HERSELF OVER THE TOP ROPE AND SPIKES MILLI WITH THE “LA ULTIMA DDT”!
Gavin Kirkland: Slingshot DDT sends the Champion down on the mat! Guzman takes the opportunity to pull Milli away from the ropes and hooks the leg for the cover!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOO!
Deadprez: GUZMAN HAS THE TIGHTS! RAEANGEL HAS A HANDFUL OF TIGHTS AND THE REFEREE IS OUT OF POSITION TO SEE IT! GUZMAN IS GONNA STEAL IT!
THHHHHHHHHHRRRRRRREEEEEEEE!
Eve: DID SHE GET IT? NO SHE DIDN’T! THE REFEREE IS CALLING IT A TWO COUNT AND THAT DOESN’T SIT WELL WITH RAEANGEL!
Gavin Kirkland: SHE IS GETTING IN THE FACE OF THE REFEREE AND THE REFEREE IS STILL TELLING HER IT IS A TWO COUNT!
Eve: She is picking a fight with the wrong person as she finishes fighting with the referee and turns back towards Milli.
Deadprez: Milli is back on her feet as Guzman has her by the hair AND MILLI COUNTERS WITH A JAWBREAKER!
Gavin Kirkland: Guzman stumbles back as Milli grabs her and whips her to the corner. Guzman jumps onto the second turnbuckle AND SHE DOES A FRONT FLIP!
Eve: GUZMAN IS LOOKING FOR THE “PLAN RESTARTER”! GUZMAN IS LOOKING FOR THAT CUTTER THAT HAS ENDED MANY MATCHES–
Deadprez: NOBODY HOME! MILLI GETS OUT OF THE WAY AND GUZMAN CRASHES AND BURNS ONTO THE CANVAS!
Gavin Kirkland: Guzman is holding her back as Milli is motioning for Guzman to get back to her feet. Milli wants to end this!
Deadprez: GUZMAN IS BACK TO HER FEET AFTER MISSING THE “PLAN RESTARTER” AND NOW MILLI HAS HOLD OF GUZMAN BY THE NECK AS SHE BACKFLIPS OVER RAEANGEL–
Eve: AND MILLI HITS “BANKRUPT”! THE SALIDA DEL SOL JUST PLANTS RAEANGEL HARD ON THE BACK OF HER HEAD! GUZMAN ISN’T MOVING AS MILLI REACHES OVER AND HOOKS THE LEG FOR THE COVER! DID MILLI JUST BANKRUPT RAEANGEL?
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEE!
TWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOO!
THHHHHHHHHHRRRRRRREEEEEEEE!
(DING! DING! DING!)
(“Changed It” starts playing again as Milli rolls off of Raeangel and sits for a moment to catch her breath as Gina Romano announces the final decision of the match.)
Gina Romano: Here is your winner… THE EAW UNIVERSAL WOMEN’S CHAMPION! MILLI BANKS!
Deadprez: What a match. The action was nonstop from bell to bell and you can’t complain about that. Milli and Raeangel certainly brought it to the match, but you would have to say that it was the experience edge that Milli has that turned things in her favor.
Eve: I am honestly shocked that both sides stayed cool and collected along with there being no interferences from either side. It was a hard fought match between both ladies.
(Milli is back on her feet as Veena and Bronson enter the ring and raise Milli’s arm in victory. Seconds later, the referee hands Milli her.)
Gavin Kirkland: You would have to give some credit to Daniella and KASAI for sticking their nose in Showdown’s business. If it wasn’t for them, Raeangel would be leaving with a huge victory.
Eve: Gavin… that’s not right at all and you know it. KASAI and Daniella were here, yes, but they didn’t interfere. They were just watching the action. Raeangel gave a lot of effort, but it just was not meant to be tonight.
(La Familia slide Raeangel out of the ring. Right now, Raeangel is sitting up on the floor and she does NOT look happy right now.)
Deadprez: Raeangel fought hard, but at the end of the day, it wasn’t enough as Milli picks up the victory in this non-title matchup. We congratulate her on the victory, but what is building right now is the Interbranded Triple Threat match for the Specialists Championship. After what went down tonight, it very well might be a fight.
(Milli soaking in her victory before cutting to KASAI watching her challengers and then cutting to Daniella, who is watching intently from the timekeeper’s area before cutting to Raeangel. Raeangel is glaring at both Daniella and KASAI, not happy they showed up on Showdown.)
(As the match finishes, and the victorious Milli Banks stands in the ring, sweaty and pretty bruised up with her win over Raeangel Guzman, the Universal Women’s Champion is joined by the National Elite Champion, Veena Adams and Bronson Daniels. Veena has the mic as the Milli’s theme fades, Raeangel can be seen looking back at the ring and then at her two Territorial Invasion opponents as La Familia helps her to the back, her face full of anger says it all.)
Veena Adams: Okay byeeee.
(Veena waves at La Familia.)
Veeba Adams: Did you see the Universal Women’s Champion in action!? I sure hope so because all yes are on her today and there isn’t a damn thing that anyone can do about it, and that includes both Voltage’s War Games and New Eden representing Dynasty! We proved it last week, and ever since that us three are the most united unit of the three and why? Can Myles and Minerva trust Drake King…. Uh NO! Can Michael Machina, Bea Valentine and especially Jake Smith get along and work as a team Uh…. NO! But look at us!
(With a huge smile on her face, she looks over at Milli who nods as Bronson takes the mic,)
Bronson Daniels: I will say that I am honestly pleasantly surprised as to how well we have gelled together as a team. I respect the hell out of Milli Banks who has always been my friend, and Veena Adams, I have a total new respect for you too, even though I know that after this is over, you will be a woman to beat, but I think it is nice that we are all three on the same page, ready to do whatever it takes to win the War Games and bring it home to Showdown. With everything that has happened last season until now, one thing I know is that no matter what, we want and need this win, not just for me, not just for Veena, not just for Milli, but for Showdown as well, and after Dynasty, and the New Eden reforming again, no matter if this is for one match or not, the point is this, that we are ready as one team, against what Voltage pretty much put together and what Dynasty forced, but we were put together because Kennedy Street gave Veena Adams the role of captain and allowed her to choose her own team and she chose us.
(Milli catches her breath, as she then takes the mic and looks into the camera and speaks.)
Milli Banks: First off, I want to give props to Raeangel Guzman, that girl is gonna be good. But now that is over, let’s talk about what is important right now, chile. WAR GAMES. I hear a lot of people talking their shit about why Veena Adams was picked as the Team Captain and not me, simple really, this girl is Showdown and has been that for three season, now while I was on Dynasty, and she earned the spot, but want to know what is even more important? The fact she picked me and Bronson to be on her team, she could have taken anyone else, but chose me and Bronson because she knows with us, we got this. I think we already roved that we can hang with New Eden and the Voltage Team, all we need is the time and place and that will be in Seoul, South Korea.
Veena Adams: That’s right, so get ready because Team Showdown is putting the “W” in WAR! Toodles!
(“7 Rings” by Ariana Grande starts to play throughout the arena as both Veena and Milli hold up their Championships. Bronson climbs the second rope and gets the fans all riled up as everyone cheers.)
Deadprez: Talk about a well-oiled machine! Team Showdown is ready and is running on all cylinders! I really like our chances!
Eve: As do I, this is the strongest Showdown team we have seen in quite some time and every single one of them have issues with Dynasty and Voltage, there is incentive here!
Gavin Kirkland: Because Veena Adams is the greatest leader of all!
(Team Showdown continues to get the fans into the possibility of a huge War Games win on Showdown as it fades to a commercial break.)
(Showdown returns from its final commercial break, with Gina Romano standing tall in the ring, microphone in hand, excited to announce the evening’s main event.)
Gina Romano: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, YOUR MAIN EVENT OF THE EVENING IS A TAG TEAM MATCH SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL!
Crowd: ONE FALL!
(‘Peligro’ by Peso Pluma plays as La Familia—Roberto, Luis, and Brianna—make their entrance, walking out together with confidence and swagger, accompanied by Raeangel Guzman, who follows behind to support them tonight.)
Gina Romano: INTRODUCING FIRST, ACCOMPANIED BY RAEANGEL GUZMAN, THE TEAM OF ROBERTO DE LA ROSA, LUIS DE LA ROSA, AND BRIANNA HILL—THEY ARE… LA FAMILIA!
(All members of La Familia enter the ring while Raeangel stands at ringside. ‘It Ain’t Safe’ by Skepta plays next, as the members of the Showdown Brand Warfare team make their entrance, led by Charlie Marr, followed by Donovan Duke, Cody Maverick, SOSA Henderson, and Jon Kelton, all marching straight to the ring to face La Familia.)
Gina Romano: AND INTRODUCING THEIR OPPONENTS, ACCOMPANIED BY JON KELTON AND THE 24/7 BATTLE ROYALE WINNER, SOSA HENDERSON—THE TEAM OF CODY MAVERICK, MR. CASH IN THE VAULT DONOVAN DUKE, AND CHARLIE MARR—THIS IS… SHOWDOWN’S BRAND WARFARE!
(DING! DING! DING!)
Gavin Kirkland: The main event is officially underway! La Familia is teaming up to face the 2024 Showdown Brand Warfare team, which includes the leader, Charlie Marr, along with his teammates Cody Maverick and Donovan Duke.
Eve: Both leaders, Charlie Marr and Roberto De La Rosa, are preparing to face off again. The last time these two met, it was on Voltage, where they traded victories, with Roberto as the Hardcore Champion and Charlie as the EAW World Champion.
Deadprez: These two, familiar with each other’s tactics, are about to kick things off. Now meeting at the center of the ring, they go for a collar-and-elbow tie-up, but Charlie fakes the attempt and quickly pokes Roberto in the eyes!
Gavin Kirkland: Charlie, playing it smart, starts raining repeated kicks to Roberto’s gut, gradually forcing him to his knees. He attempts an Irish whip, but Roberto intercepts, landing a sharp uppercut that sends Charlie staring at the arena ceiling! Roberto follows up with a judo throw, but Charlie counters with one of his own!
Eve: Marr is making his move, heading towards the ropes with Roberto rising underneath him. The elder De La Rosa gets back to his feet and leaps over Marr. The Tyrant stops behind him, hooking him into a backslide for a cover!
Deadprez: Roberto kicks out before the count. Roberto then grabs both of Marr’s legs, quickly covering him, but Marr kicks out before the count as well. Both competitors roll back to their feet simultaneously. Roberto attempts a quick clothesline, but Charlie traps his arm and seems to be setting up for The Queen is Dead — a Double Underhook DDT!
Gavin Kirkland: Roberto counters by shifting his weight, causing Charlie to lose control, both landing safely on the ground. Roberto now throws Charlie under setting up for the Mexican Destroyer!
Deadprez: The very finisher seemingly borrowed from TLA but not yet executed perfectly, as Marr scoops De La Rosa over but lands on his own back! Charlie, noticing his right arm charging up, while Roberto, still trying to compose himself, clutches his back in pain. Marr spins around, aiming to take him out with the Charing Cross!
Eve: Roberto ducks just in time, saving himself from trouble, and counters by launching Charlie over his head with a German suplex! Charlie, resisting the impact, quickly rises to his feet and strides back toward Roberto, grabbing him from behind by the tights… and SLAMS ROBERTO DOWN WITH A SUPLEX OF HIS OWN! BOTH MEN ARE DOWN!
Gavin Kirkland: An exchange between the respective leaders of their teams is unfolding, and it seems like both still have more left in the tank as they eventually rise to their knees simultaneously. Charlie slowly throws a right elbow across Roberto’s temple, and Roberto responds with one of his own, forcing Marr to back away!
Deadprez: Charlie shakes his head, loosening his arm before delivering a harsh chop across Roberto’s chest! Roberto, wanting more, chops Charlie in return, with Charlie quickly responding with another chop of his own! Roberto then lands an elbow across Charlie’s chin!
Eve: Charlie then driving a pointed elbow into Roberto’s head, momentarily blinding him. Charlie leaps off the ground, going over Roberto for a jumping DDT!
Gavin Kirkland: Roberto manages to counter and lifts Charlie onto his right shoulder, sending him straight up into the top corner after Charlie fails to connect with the Jumping DDT. Charlie is positioned at the top, but Roberto quickly grabs the rope and hits him with a Step-Up Enzuigiri while he’s perched there!
Deadprez: Charlie is stunned by the kick, and now Roberto has another opportunity to deal with him. This could be the moment—Roberto scrambles up to the second rope and grabs hold of Charlie, potentially setting up for a big superplex.
Eve: Charlie is hanging on! Marr is not about to let the elder De La Rosa take control, hammering Roberto’s back with multiple forearm strikes, causing Roberto to slip off the second rope!
Gavin Kirkland: Marr regains his balance, climbs back up, and looks down at Roberto from the top… DEATH OR GLORY CONNECTS! Marr launches off the top, taking Roberto down with a Diving Uppercut! Marr rolls Roberto over for the cover!
ONEEE!
TWOOOOO!
Gavin Kirkland: Roberto kicks out at two!
Deadprez: You could tell that Marr is not pleased with the outcome, as it allows Roberto to remain in the match. Marr slowly gets back to his feet and drags Roberto to the corner, slamming his face into the top turnbuckle! Charlie quickly seizes the opportunity, trying to wear Roberto down with a tight headlock, pressing him against the corner!
Eve: Roberto struggles as the referee rushes in to break it up, while Charlie shows clear annoyance with the interference. Roberto is stunned in the corner, and Charlie presses him back against it, grabbing his wrist and attempting to throw him toward the opposite corner. Roberto resists, and as Charlie turns around, Roberto charges at him, looking for the Running Spear—Talon De Águila!
Gavin Kirkland: But it doesn’t connect, as Charlie sends Roberto over his head and onto the apron instead. Roberto stays focused and seizes another opportunity, going after Charlie, who turns just in time… BORDER CRASHER ACROSS THE JAW! Roberto, now on both knees, hooks both of Charlie’s legs for the cover!
ONEEE!
TWOOOOO!
Gavin Kirkland: Shoulder off the mat! Charlie manages to survive at 2! Roberto slowly gets back to his feet and notices Brianna Hill reaching for the tag. Roberto isn’t going to allow Charlie to tag just yet—he drags him away to the corner and tags in Brianna Hill!
(TAG!)
Eve: La Familia now has Charlie in the corner as Brianna joins forces with Roberto. Together, they begin stomping Charlie in the corner, showing no signs of stopping anytime soon! Charlie is then dragged out, and Brianna and Roberto work together to toss Marr into the ropes, setting up for a double clothesline!
Deadprez: Marr ducks under their arms and moves behind Brianna, pushing her into Roberto, causing them to crash into each other! Roberto loses his balance and tumbles to the outside of the ring!
Gavin Kirkland: Marr quickly turns back around, heads to his team’s corner, and makes the tag! The Main Event Mogul is now in!
(TAG!)
Gavin Kirkland: Cody enters the ring and wastes no time, landing a right hook across Brianna’s jaw, sending her tumbling to the ground. He immediately targets Luis, tackling him off the apron, before turning his attention back to Brianna, who is slowly getting back to her feet. Cody attempts a Rolling Elbow!
Deadprez: Brianna counters with a Bicycle Kick aimed at Cody’s arm, but Maverick rolls to the side, taking her down in the process with the second attempt of rolling elbow!
Eve: Maverick quickly gets back to his feet while Brianna struggles to recover. He positions himself on the middle rope, seizes the moment, and reenters the ring, knocking Brianna down with a Slingshot Shoulder Block!
Gavin Kirkland Cody is continually back on his feet, picks Brianna up, hooks her from the side, and connects with a Russian Legsweep! Cody then backs into the ropes…
(Cody, facing the crowd after bouncing off the ropes, points at them and yells, “CO-DY MAVERICK!” before leaping off the ground and hitting a jumping elbow on the grounded Brianna!)
Gavin Kirkland: And the elbow! Cody covers!
ONEEEE!
TWOOOOOO!
Gavin Kirkland: But a kickout!
Eve: Brianna has taken a lot of punishment from Cody and hasn’t been able to recover well so far. Meanwhile, Maverick is slowly getting back to his feet, and it looks like Raeangel might be trying to get up on the apron.
Deadprez: Kelton approaches from ringside to confront her, causing enough of a distraction for Maverick to notice the commotion.
Gavin Kirkland: Look no further, Brianna quickly gets to her feet and sends Cody into the middle rope with a Running Dropkick! Brianna springs to her feet, runs off the ropes, and swings back… HOTLINE CONNECTS WITH MAVERICK’S FACE!
Eve: Now on the apron, Brianna rises and charges across, looking to inflict more damage on Maverick!… launches herself with a Diving Cannonball Senton onto Cody in the center of the ring! Brianna goes for the cover this time!
ONEEEE!
TWOOOOOO!
Eve: Maverick is able to kick out in time!
Gavin Kirkland: Brianna managed to land a significant strike, giving her a crucial opportunity to press forward and execute a decisive move to finish off Cody. Brianna now faces Maverick, taking aim to put an end to him. Brianna charges forward, possibly setting up for the Breakthrough Kick!
Eve: Maverick rolls under the attempt, causing Brianna’s kick to sail through the air. She quickly recovers, rolling back to her feet and sprinting towards Maverick again.
Maverick catches her with a kick to the gut and prepares to finish her off with the Sin City Stunner!
Deadprez: Brianna grabs a handful of his hair. She pulls him into position, looking to lift him for the Crush Culture!
Gavin Kirkland: Maverick shifts his weight, preventing her from completing the maneuver! He lands on his feet and spins around, delivering a Discus Punch that sends Brianna stumbling into the ropes!
Eve: She bounces back off the ropes, and Cody seems ready to lift her for the Deep End!
Deadprez: Brianna fights back fiercely landing a barrage of sharp elbows to Maverick’s shoulder, preventing him from fully competing the move.
Gavin Kirkland: She now shoves Cody towards the ropes, and as he rebounds, she catches him—planting him with a Chokehold STO! Brianna quickly goes for the cover while Cody is momentarily distracted by the pain.
ONEEE!
TWOOOOO!
Gavin Kirkland: Cody still kicks out at two!
Eve: Brianna looks determined to take control of the match as she goes after Cody, who is once again on his feet. She grabs his head and slams him back to the ground with force! Maverick holds his head in pain, while Brianna, clearly frustrated, appears to be shouting at him after taking him down. She heads towards the ropes, preparing to make her next move on Maverick-
Deadprez: Cody strikes from beneath with a Chop Block right to her left knee—the spot where she previously suffered an ACL tear!
Gavin Kirkland: Brianna lets out a loud scream as the blow lands directly on her injured knee. Cody has found her weak spot and uses it to his advantage, sending Brianna crashing to the mat. Maverick returns to his feet, positioning himself in the corner.
Eve: Look! Luis suddenly appears on the apron and grabs Maverick’s right hand, distracting him. Luis quickly hops off as Cody swings at him, but the distraction is brief. Cody turns around just as Brianna, in desperation, charges at him with a right hand!
Deadprez: Maverick ducks under her strike… LIGHTS OUT! He tries to land a Superman Punch, but Brianna manages to catch his arm! Using Cody’s momentum, she catapults herself into the Rift in Time submission maneuver, attempting to lock in the Guillotine Choke!
Gavin Kirkland: It’s not working as planned, as Cody lifts her in a Deadlift Suplex, scooping her over his head!
Eve: Brianna is down, but Cody isn’t finished. He rolls through, still holding Brianna, and gets back to his feet. He sends Brianna’s legs hanging over the top turnbuckle… MONEYMAKER! DDT SPIKING BRIANNA HEAD FIRST TO THE GROUND! Cody quickly rolls her over for the cover. Is this the end for Brianna?
ONEEEE!
TWOOOOOO!
Eve: Brianna pops her shoulder off the ground at two!
Gavin Kirkland: Cody looks like he needs to make a tag soon, as Donovan is reaching out for the tag, while Brianna Hill is doing the same, looking to tag in Luis! Both are stretching out to reach their partners—wait a second, Roberto is down on Charlie’s side! What’s he doing?
Deadprez: He just pulled the Showdown Team Leader off the apron and lifted him onto his shoulders… ROBERTO POWERBOMBS CHARLIE ONTO THE APRON OUTSIDE! Donovan sees this unfolding and quickly heads to the top rope, while Roberto is momentarily distracted by his triumph in taking out Charlie.
Eve: SOSA and Kelton approach Roberto, exchanging harsh words after the sudden attack. Raeangel joins in, and now there’s a heated argument between both sides on the outside!
Gavin Kirkland: They’re too busy arguing to notice what’s about to happen! Guys!!… MOONSAULT FROM THE TOP ROPE TO THE OUTSIDE, TAKING ALL FOUR DOWN! Donovan, with plenty left in the tank, quickly gets back to his feet, climbs up to the apron, and looks to make the tag!
(DOUBLE TAG!)
Gavin Kirkland: The tag has been made on the other side as well! Donovan enters the ring, and Luis De La Rosa charges forward, only to run straight into a back elbow from Donovan Duke, taking him down. Luis quickly gets back up, but he’s met with another elbow strike, sending him reeling like he’s been hit by a ton of bricks.
Eve: Luis stumbles to his feet, he walks right into Donovan, who’s already prepared to catch him… Belly-to-Belly Suplex! It connects perfectly, planting Luis hard on the mat! Donovan quickly rises back to his feet after the suplex, moving to the side… STANDING MOONSAULT BY DONOVAN ON LUIS! Donovan immediately goes for the cover!
ONEEE!
TWOOOOO!
Eve: Luis kicks out of the Moonsault just in time, saving his team from disaster! He quickly rolls to the outside, trying to distance himself from Donovan. Donovan isn’t wasting any time—he follows Luis, grabs him, and drives him gut-first into the edge of the apron!
Gavin Kirkland: Donovan has been itching to dish out some ass kicking, and now he’s getting his chance! Luis, in desperation, scrambles back into the ring, clutching his gut, while Donovan rolls in after him.
Deadprez: Donovan closes in and Luis delivers a desperate shin kick to stun him momentarily! Seizing the moment, Luis hooks Donovan, attempting a Snap Suplex! But Donovan isn’t letting it happen—he wiggles out and lands on his feet.
Eve: Donovan goes for a Superkick to the gut, but Luis catches it and counters by lifting Donovan into a Stun Gun, dropping him throat-first on the ropes!
Gavin Kirkland: Luis, not missing a beat, runs towards the ropes, rebounds, and delivers a crushing running right boot to Donovan, knocking him down in the center of the ring! Luis quickly goes for a cover!
ONEEEE!
TWOOOOO!
Eve: Donovan quickly kicks out at two!
Deadprez: Luis seems to understand exactly who he’s up against right now, and he either has to handle this with ease… or maybe not.
(Luis gets back to his feet, pointing at his own head in an attempt to mock Donovan’s intelligence, as Donovan remains stunned by the hard kick Luis delivered earlier.)
Luis De La Rosa: Qué es esto ahora? Ahora te quieres debilitar?!? Qué hace este bebé por aquí??!? Papá no tiene tiempo todo el día!!!!
(SPIT!)
Deadprez: Oh.
Eve: Welp, that’s a wrap, folks.
Gavin Kirkland: And Donovan is definitely not going to take that lightly! Ole Reliable turns Luis around, sending him stumbling into the corner! Duke charges in and hits him with a hard lariat that nearly knocks the soul out of Luis!
Eve: Frustration is building in Duke, and now he’s relentlessly slapping Luis in the corner over and over, until it looks like the taste is knocked out of his mouth! Donovan is fed up with Luis’s attitude!
Deadprez: Duke continues his assault, the referee steps in to check if Luis is okay. Donovan is pushed back but starts motivating Luis. Luis rises to his feet in the corner, signaling that he’s okay and giving Duke the green light to continue the attack.
Gavin Kirkland: Luis quickly moves out of the corner, causing Donovan to crash into the turnbuckles!
Eve: Donovan hits hard, and Luis, back on his feet, grabs Donovan from behind, lifting him onto his shoulders for Choque de esquina! He’s aiming for the Lawn Dart Throw into the same turnbuckle Donovan just collided with!
Deadprez: Donovan slips down behind him, getting Luis exactly where he wants him—pressing him from behind against the corner and rolling backward! Oh boy here we go. Here it comes! Here it comes!… ROLLING CHAOS THEORY BRIDGING INTO A PIN BY DONOVAN! WHAT A TAKEDOWN!
ONEEEE!
TWOOOOOOO!
Deadprez: A kick out! Aw man!
Gavin Kirkland: What an incredible move we just witnessed, almost not giving Luis enough time to anticipate or kick out! Luis now takes a moment to recover while Donovan refocuses on the match. Luis slowly rises to his feet, determined to fight back. Donovan, already back on his feet, immediately charges in for a Spear!-
Eve: OH!!! Luis counters with a SUPERKICK TURNING DUKE AROUND IN MID RUN! Luis follows up with a Double Superkick, landing another one to the back of Donovan’s head! Luis quickly drops down for the cover! He’s got Donovan this time and is not about to let him slip away!
ONEEEE!
TWOOOOOO!
Eve: Three! No, not quite! Donovan Duke has managed to kick out after two back-to-back superkicks that almost knocked him out cold! Luis’s opportunity is right here—he’s slowly lifting Donovan off the ground and seems ready to apply the Guillotine Choke finisher! He’s going for the Cartel Execution #2 to finish Donovan off!
Deadprez: Duke catches a glimpse of what’s coming and refuses to let it happen. He fights back, preventing Luis from fully locking in the choke, and forces him to fire knee after knee into Donovan’s face while he’s already down and dazed!
Gavin Kirkland: Luis looks ready to wrap this up for good—Cartel Execution #2 incoming!
Eve: LIGHTS OUT!!!! Cody storms in and knocks Luis down with Lights Out! Donovan is freed from the submission!

Gavin Kirkland: Brianna rolls out of the ring, completely knocked out. Now Roberto De La Rosa charges in. Cody anticipates him but can’t react in time… SPIKED by a running Mexican Destroyer from Roberto! Cody is out cold! SOSA is up on the apron, distracting the referee—what is he planning?
Eve: Oh look, Gavin! Here comes Jon Kelton! He’s approaching Roberto, setting up for… FINAL ATONEMENT! But Roberto dodges, causing Kelton to accidentally tackle the referee from behind, sending both of them crashing to the outside, and the referee knocks SOSA off the apron!
Deadprez: SOSA, furious, gets back to his feet, re-enters the ring, and charges at Roberto, looking to hit a spear of his own! But Roberto leaps over him, causing SOSA to crash into the ring post!
Gavin Kirkland: Roberto has dodged several spears tonight, but he might not escape this one! Look out, Roberto!… CHARING CROSS TURNS HIM INSIDE OUT! What a Discus Lariat from Charlie Marr, knocking Roberto out cold! Roberto rolls to the outside floor as Charlie follows him.
Eve: Chaos is breaking out between both teams on the outside, but someone is missing… And there she is! Raeangel is up on the top rope while everyone is brawling below!!!… RAEANGEL FROM THE TOP ROPE WITH A CROSSBODY TAKING EVERYONE OUT!!!!
Gavin Kirkland: WOW!
Deadprez: SHUCKY DUCKY QUACK QUACK!!!!
Eve: And now it’s down to Duke and Luis, the only two left inside the ring. Duke gets back to his feet, while Luis is still dazed from the Superman Punch Cody landed on him earlier. Donovan charges in, possibly looking to repeat the same spot!… DUKE GOING FOR DEALER’S CHOICE!
Gavin Kirkland: Luis ducks under the Discus Punch and runs straight to the ropes, rebounding and leaping toward Donovan, taking him down with a Running Hurricanrana! Duke is down again!

Eve: It’s all over for him! Donovan has him right where he wants him!… STACK THE DECK!!! PHOENIX SPLASH ON LUIS!
Deadprez: Roberto, desperate, rushes back into the ring, quickly trying to lift Donovan for the Calling Card! But Charlie sees it coming and knows Duke won’t go down that easily.
Gavin Kirkland: Donovan scoops Roberto up and tosses him to Charlie, who’s ready… CHARLIE CATCHES ROBERTO RIGHT INTO THE QUEEN IS DEAD! The Double Underhook DDT connects’
Donovan signals to Charlie, and together they pick Roberto up again. Donovan throws him toward Charlie… Charlie intercepts Luis instead with THE HEADMASTER RITUAL!
Eve; Charlie grabs Luis by the legs and catapults him right into Donovan… RIGHT ONTO HIS SHOULDERS! Donovan catches him and brings him down with DUKE OF HAZARD!!! Donovan drops into the cover! That’s it!
ONEEE!

Eve: Kelton and SOSA, still trying to get a handle on what’s happening, rush to defend themselves—BUT LIMMY STRIKES FIRST WITH DIABLE JAMBE, KNOCKING KELTON OUT COLD, WHILE AKARI HITS SOSA WITH PEACH DREAM!
Gavin Kirkland: VOLTAGE IS HERE AND TWO OF MY KINGS ARE BACK ON SHOWDOWN! WHAT ON EARTH?!?!?
(All members of Showdown have been beaten down. Adam is handling Charlie, Akari is taking care of SOSA, Limmy is dealing with Kelton, and Ms. Extreme is focused on Donovan. Each member of the opposing team is being given special attention, to the point where they’ve been beaten to a pulp… but there’s still one member standing tall, defiant before the others, as the crowd erupts in loud cheers.)
Crowd: CODY! CODY! CODY! CODY! CODY!
Gavin Kirkland: Cody is the last remaining member of our brand’s team! Oh no!
(Cody stands tall, staring down the five Voltage members who just took out the rest of his team. The other Voltage members move toward him, but Limmy, watching closely, pushes them back and steps forward, locking eyes with Cody.)
Limmy Monaghan: (Off-Mic) Consider this a fair warning for tonight from us.
(Limmy taps Cody on the shoulder just as he’s about to leave, then can be heard whispering something near Ms. Extreme’s ear as he walks past.)
Limmy Monaghan: (Off-Mic) Get him.
Gavin Kirkland: HOLY GROUND TAKES CODY OUT IMMEDIATELY! Every other member of Voltage, except Limmy, who stands there watching, follows up to finish Cody off for good! My word, what on earth did Showdown do to deserve this?!
(The members of Voltage begin stacking the Showdown team on top of one another, with Charlie Marr placed at the top. Limmy walks over, placing his foot on the pile, looking directly into the hard cam. The rest of the Voltage team celebrates their successful beatdown of Showdown, while Limmy smirks alongside Ms. Extreme as ‘Number One’ by Shirō Sagisu & Hazel Fernandes plays in the background. The final shot captures the brutal dominance of the Voltage team, standing tall and victorious, sending a clear warning heading into Territorial Invasion. Showdown closes with the Voltage Brand Warfare team standing tall.)
(EAW logo buzzes.)
