(EAW intro plays.)
(A recap of last week’s Voltage begins to play. Following Persephone’s tribute to Rex McAllister, the Woogieman welcomes fans back to Voltage, before Captain Charisma announces that next week Hikari Kanno and Ms. Extreme will spin the wheel to determine their stipulation at Bloodsport. After this, Alex Myers defeats Kevin Hunter. Next Candice Blair accidentally gets in the way of Miku Sakai, who’s not taking her Pain for Pride loss too well, and her interview. This leads to an altercation that ends with Miku slapping Candice in the face. After this Jake Smith and Mary S. Atlas defeats Holly Arrow and Donovan Duke after Mary destroys Holly outside of the ring, and Jake capitalizes off of a distracted Donovan with a roll up. After this Ryan Wilson celebrates his Championship victory and says he’ll defend his Championship at Bloodsport, before promising to defeat Lucas Johnson. After this Raven Roberts defeats Shane Gates, and Danny Tanner introduces himself to Voltage, before an altercation with Shane Gates gets him attacked. After this Ryan Wilson defeats Lucas Johnson, and after both Justin Windgate and Chris Elite interrupt New Eden wanting an EAW Championship match, Captain Charisma makes their upcoming match a contendership match for the title. Next New Eden defeats IDOL-GUN after a distraction from Ms. Extreme’s music, and Ms. Extreme would attack both members of IDOL-GUN afterwards, before cutting a promo warning Hikari Kanno of what’ll happen at Bloodsport. After this Chris Elite and Justin Windgate end up in a double pin situation, and Captain Charisma promises to settle things next week. Next, Jamie O’Hara has an interview where he promises that the next year will be just like the last 12 months, and he’ll find his way back to the top. The main event match between Drake King and Ms. Extreme ends in chaos when IDOL-GUN’s simps attack Ms. Extreme. Security takes them away, and with the match called off, Drake puts out his hand to help Ms. Extreme up. Ms. Extreme slaps his hand away, and the show ends with Ms. Extreme promising to kill Hikari Kanno.)
(The recap ends, and “33rd Blakk Glass” by Sosmula and ZillaKami plays as the camera pans around the live audience. Once again the crowd cheers as loud as they can, as the lights flash and the pyro goes off, before finally the camera pans to James Peters, Persephone Tsitsipas, and Rich Russillo at the commentary table.)
James Peters: Ladies and gentlemen… Welcome back to Sunday night Voltage! It sure feels good having the fans with us once again, and I just can’t wait to get the night started!
Rich Russillo: Me neither. We have some fantastic matches lined up here tonight, including a Champion versus Champion showcase match!
Persephone: Ehh… I don’t see anything interesting. Maybe if Rexy was here :mjcry:.
Rich Russillo: :mjcry:
James Peters: :snoop:
(‘Invincible’ by Pop Smoke hits, and the camera cuts to the stage as the crowd gives a mixed reaction. Chris Elite begins to walk out to the stage, and he has a microphone in his hand. Chris looks pissed off after the events of last week’s Voltage, where he and Justin Windgate got into a double pin in their EAW Championship number one contenders match. Chris makes his way down towards the ring as the crowd gives him a mix of both cheers and boos.)
James Peters: Well it looks like Chris Elite isn’t too happy :lupe:.
Rich Russillo: Of course he isn’t, you saw what happened last week. He went through that insane match against Justin Windgate, just for it to end in a double pin!
Persephone: Captain Charisma said he’d resolve it or something, right? Hopefully his answer is to just not have an EAW Championship match at Bloodsport. These Voltage free-per-views are always longer than they need to be and the last thing I need is an overly long show without Rexy on it.
(Chris Elite enters the ring, and the fans can see how frustrated he is. It doesn’t take long for them to quiet down, allowing Chris to begin speaking.)
Chris Elite: It’s really been a whole fuckin’ week and I still haven’t got what I deserved. Y’all saw my match against Justin Windgate’s bumass. I beat his ass that entire match, so why the FUCK am I not the number one contender to the EAW Championship yet? I don’t give a fuck if it ended in some stupid double pin. If shit didn’t go down I would’ve won the match just like I always do. Justin Windgate isn’t fucking with me on his best day or on my worst, so the fact that we’re even doing this shit is stupid when Captain Charisma easily could’ve just come out and named me the number one contender. Shit would’ve saved us so much time. Nobody wants to see Justin fucking Windgate in a World Championship match or in a free-per-view main event. There’s no reason why we need to be having this conversation. I don’t give a fuck about a double pin, or the referees not knowing who won, or whatever the fuck Captain Charisma’s thinking about. I don’t know why it takes a fucking week to make an obvious choice like “who should get the EAW Championship match” when I’m a Hall of Famer and Justin’s biggest accomplishment is having a drug addiction, but I’m tired of waiting.
Chris Elite: I know I didn’t get drafted to Voltage just to get pushed to the fucking side by Justin Windgate of all people. His bumass has never been anywhere as good as me and I made sure he knew that all last week. Promos, wrestling, it really didn’t matter. I should’ve won that match and I WOULD’VE won it if these referee’s weren’t made of fucking paper, so Justin really shouldn’t be anywhere near the EAW Championship scene right now, not when I’m here. He’s not about to be the reason I don’t get this opportunity, so Captain Charisma? You might as well get out here right now, because I’m not going nowhere until I get my fucking title match-
(‘High All The Time’ by 50 Cent hits, and the crowd explodes in excitement as Justin Windgate begins walking out with a microphone in his hand. Chris Elite immediately sighs and shakes his head as Justin begins to make his way down to the ring, clearly not happy about his presence here tonight. Justin finally enters the ring, but before he even gets to speak, Chris Elite interrupts him.)
Chris Elite: You’re not the one that should be out here right now. I’m done with you. I don’t give a fuck about you. I should be preparing for an upcoming EAW Championship match right now, not listening to your dumbass speak.
Justin Windgate: I don’t know why you keep pretending you deserve that match more than me. We know your history, Chris. You’ve had chances to become World Champion again. More chances than some people get to become World Champion for their first time, and you’ve constantly come up short. You weren’t going to beat me Chris, and if I’m remembering things correctly YOU’RE the reason things ended the way they did. You’re the one that kicked the referee in the face. I’ve been proving time and time again that I have what it takes to go further with my career. Ever since I returned I’ve been rising higher and higher. All I needed was an opportunity and I’d find a way to become World Champion. I had that opportunity last week and somehow things got way more complicated than they needed to be, but it we’re about to come out here and make a case for why we should be facing Drake, the conversation starts and ends with Justin Windgate. I don’t see why you deserve a damn thing let alone a World Championship match at Bloodsport.
Chris Elite: :francis: But YOU deserve it, huh? Your bumass lost the Cash in the Vault ladder match thanks to Myles yet you wanna face Drake at Bloodsport, ‘cause that makes so much sense. If you weren’t so fucking garbage maybe you could’ve won the briefcase and then just cashed in on Drake. It’s nobody else’s fault that you couldn’t get the job done but yours, so you might as well get to the back of the line.
Justin Windgate: Because you did sooo much better at Pain for Pride, huh? I don’t care what happened at Pain for Pride. That was Pain for Pride, we’re in a new season now and that means I have the opportunity to continue to step up my game and go places I’ve never been before. I’m going to beat Myles later tonight anyway, and it’s only right that after beating one third of New Eden I go on to defeat another at the first free-per-view of the season, *and* win my first World Championship in the process.
Chris Elite: I genuinely couldn’t give any less of a fuck about what happens in your match against Myles. All that matters is that I should be getting my World Championship match. Where the fuck is Captain Charisma, he’s the one that should be here right now.
Justin Windgate: For once I actually agree with you. It’s been a whole week, one of us should be getting that EAW Championship match confirmed right now. Captain Charisma, can you come out and fix this already?
(Finally, ‘Self Help Tape’ by Moses Sumney hits, causing the crowd to begin cheering loudly. Captain Charisma finally walks out, and he begins walking down to the ring with a microphone in his hand as both Justin and Chris watch on. They’re both annoyed with the whole situation, and just want it to be resolved.)
Persephone: Finally, time for Captain Charisma to announce that there won’t be an EAW Championship match at Bloodsport :blessed:!
James Peters: You don’t actually think that’ll happen, right?
Persephone: Not really, but that or Rexy returning are literally the only good options. Drake and whoever faces him both dying at Bloodsport would pass too I guess.
Rich Russillo: Well I don’t know what’s going to happen, but I’m excited to finally get an answer for what happened last week!
(Finally, Captain Charisma enters the ring. The crowd is still excited to hear what he has to say, meanwhile Chris and Justin are both just waiting to hear who he chooses to face Drake.)
Captain Charisma: I-
(Unfortunately for everyone involved, Captain Charisma doesn’t actually get to say anything, because right before he could get a single sentence out, ‘My Brother (The Dragonslayer)’ by Shiro SAGISU hits, causing the crowd to begin booing as loud as they can. All three men inside of the ring turn towards the stage, and not a single one of them seem too amused by the interruption.)
James Peters: I guess it was only a matter of time until these three came out.
Persephone: I’m so tired of seeing these guys. Can they just get killed off already?
(Drake, Myles and Minerva stand at the stage. They all have microphones in their hand which angers the crowd even more, and they don’t look happy with what’s going on between Chris, Justin, and Captain Charisma.)
Drake King: Look at this. Just look at what’s going on here. A bunch of bickering and arguing, and for what? Just some Championship match? Every single week you guys just prove our point. You prove that you’re all just consumed with Championship gold and you refuse to see the bigger picture. None of you ever actually want to listen, but you prove us right every single time you speak. The season JUST started and you guys are already arguing over a title opportunity that neither of you actually did anything to earn not going your way, and that’s just sad. In my opinion, someone with a limited vocabulary and someone who poisons their own body with all of these horrible toxins don’t deserve the spotlight, but the human ego is a powerful thing so of course two losers like Justin Windgate and Chris Elite believe that they’re the ones who deserve it. I don’t think the EAW Championship should be defended. In fact, I believe the Championship should be taken away just like the PURE Championship was.
Captain Charisma:…. You do know the PURE Championship was just replaced with another title, right?
Drake King: Don’t speak.
(Captain Charisma rolls his eyes, meanwhile Myles turns his attention towards Justin Windgate.)
Myles: Justin, I don’t know why you’re so confident that you’ll be winning against me tonight. Then again, I’m also not so sure why you feel you deserve some Championship match so badly even though in the end you’d just come up short. You’re so entitled and you don’t even have a real reason to be this way. You had your time in the spotlight just this year with the Interwire Championship, and we saw how that went. Since then you’ve had your chances. You had the Grand Rampage, you had Cash in the Vault, you had your match against Chris Elite, why should you be rewarded when you couldn’t get the job done a single time? You feel so entitled even though you have no reason to. There’s no reason why an EAW Championship match has to happen at Bloodsport, and if it DOES happen then there’s no reason why you need to be part of it, but you just don’t see it yet, huh? I really am going to enjoy every part of what I do to you tonight.
Justin Windgate: I’m sure you will, but our match won’t end the same way Cash in the Vault did. I’m going to beat you, and I’m going to not just face Drake at Bloodsport, but I’m going to beat him too.
(Myles rolls his eyes, brushing off what Justin said. Drake on the other hand still has his eyes on Captain Charisma.)
Drake King: Thanks to the agenda you have on New Eden I know we’re going to be forced into some awful, disgusting, overly violent match. None of this is actually necessary, but we’re going to be put through some of the worst matches possible because for some reason, you guys think New Eden can actually be stopped, even though every single-
Chris Elite: Oh my God, SHUT THE FUCK UP! Nobody gives a shit about what the fucking mayo mutants think! I’m deadass fucking tired of hearing y’all whine about a bunch of bullshit and this is only my second week on the same brand as you. How are y’all this insufferable when you’re all either Champions or Mr. Cash in the Vault? I don’t know how the fuck everyone else dealt with you weirdos for an entire season but I’m not dealing with this shit when I should be getting an EAW Championship match. I came out here to get what I rightfully deserve, not to put up with Justin’s bitchass interrupting me and saying the same shit as always, and definitely not to fucking hear y’all go and on about nothing. I don’t give a shit about how “mistreated” you are. I don’t give a shit about how y’all wanna get rid of titles or whatever the fuck y’all be talking about, and I DEFINITELY don’t give a shit whether or not you think I deserve a shot at that title. Suck my dick bozo. I got a Gawd contract.
Drake King: Ok.
Chris Elite: :francis:
(Chris just shakes his head, but right after Minerva actually steps forward, raising her microphone as she looks directly at Chris Elite.)
Minerva: Chris, I know the World Championship is your priority, but that’s not the only thing you’re after, is it? You don’t just want to become World Champion again, you want to do something only a few names in this company’s history have been able to. You want to put together a career Grand Slam. After all, the Illionaires were born and put ahead of Heavenly Hell all so you could statpad and add the Unified Tag Team Championships to your resume. You tried to win those titles at our expense all so you could come one step closer to achieving finally everything, and that’s not even to mention your other attempts at becoming Champion such as your match for the PURE Championship, the Grand Prix, and even your last attempt at winning the Championship I now have around my own waist. This is what you want. Not just to win the EAW Championship so you could call yourself a two-time World Champion, but the opportunity to say that you’ve won everything EAW has to offer.
(Minerva glares at Captain Charisma.)
Minerva: I know I’ll have to compete at Bloodsport. As long as you’re a member of New Eden you’re not given any actual choices on whether or not you’d like to compete, so Chris if you want a Championship match so badly, why don’t you try and do what you failed to in the past? You might as well chase after something that’ll bring you one step closer to getting what you want instead of an accolade that’ll do nothing for you. You’re only a few Championship victories away from the Grand Slam you’re looking for, and the title I’m holding is one of the few titles on that list. The lust and greed you have really is sickening, but trust me, I’d be more than happy to put this National Elite Championship on the line against you at Bloodsport, all so I can tear you apart and destroy your dreams.
Chris Elite: …
(Chris Elite doesn’t seem to know what to say. He hadn’t thought about going after the National Elite Championship, and the last thing he expected was for Minerva to step up and challenge him. He’s surprised, but after thinking for a while, he slowly begins to nod his head, which actually causes the crowd to cheer.)
Chris Elite: You know what? Fuck it. I’ve never been National Elite Champion before and I’m definitely not about to back down to no bitch, so I accept.
(Once again the crowd begins to cheer as Chris accepts the challenge, likely mainly thanks to the possibility of Chris dethroning the member of New Eden.)
Justin Windgate: Well CC, it looks like your dilemma’s solved :troll:.
Drake King: :comeagain:
(Captain Charisma looks over at Drake, who’s shaking his head, trying to get Captain Charisma to not listen to Justin Windgate. A smile grows on the Voltage Commissioner’s face, before looking back at Justin and giving him a nod of approval.)
Captain Charisma: I like it. I like all of it, so you know what? It’s official! At Bloodsport, CHRIS ELITE WILL FACE MINERVA FOR THE NATIONAL ELITE CHAMPIONSHIP….. AND JUSTIN WINDGATE WILL FACE DRAKE KING FOR THE EAW CHAMPIONSHIP!!!
(The crowd explodes at the huge announcement for Bloodsport, and while Minerva has a smirk on her face as she laid out the challenge to Chris Elite, Drake King can’t believe Captain Charisma listened to Justin.)
James Peters: There you have it! Two huge matches were just confirmed for Bloodsport! Chris Elite versus Minerva for the National Elite Championship! Justin Windgate versus Drake King for the EAW Championship!
Rich Russillo: This is big news to open up Voltage! I didn’t think we’d be getting something like this!
Persephone: So not one match was confirmed, but TWO!? You’ve got to be kidding me. This is Bloodsport, right? They better get some good stipulations to make up for this.
(Chris Elite and Justin Windgate both look focused on their upcoming Bloodsport opponents, but they look pretty satisfied with the opportunities they were both given. Captain Charisma has a smile on his face hearing the positive reception from the crowd, meanwhile Drake, Minerva and Myles stay on the stage, staring right back down at Justin and Chris. From there, Voltage fades to the first commercial break of the night.)
(Promotional ad for Bloodsport, where Drake King defends his EAW Championship against Justin Windgate.)
(The camera cuts to backstage where we see Shane Gates coming through the parking garage as he has just arrived. His eyebrows furrow as the impending feeling of doom seems to be encompassing him. He shakes it off though, and continues his trudge through the garage, and through the door to the arena. As soon as he opens the door to enter, he sees an oddly dressed woman sitting, in an oddly placed chair. As soon as she sees him she arises, and greets him)
???: Hell Mr. Shane Gates, my name is Elizabeth, it’s a pleasure to meet you. Can we talk?
(Confused Shane is apprehensive to greet her back, but cautiously he does as he feels as though he doesn’t have any other option)
Shane Gates: Good evening ma’am, how may I help you?
(Shane shakes off whatever feelings he was having, as he starts to believe that this woman is just a fan. She’s an attractive woman, brown shoulder length hair, soft delicate eyes, and a smile that could put him into a trance. It could be said that at first meeting, Shane became a fan of hers as well)
Elizabeth: Mr. Gates, I’m not sure how to say this, but I’ll cut right to the chase. It may come as a surprise to you, but that doll… Lizzie. You’re not the first to come into contact with that vile being. As you know she’s much more than just a doll. My family has been dealing with her for ages. You see, that doll has been in my family for centuries; it dates back to the 1800’s and has been passed down from generations to generations. When my Grandmother passed away I was just the next in line to take possession of it. But before Lizze ever got to me, the doll disappeared.
Shane Gates: I’m sorry I don’t..
Elizabeth: Let me tell you a story Mr. Gates. My Grandmother was just a young Mother, who herself had to deal with a death in the family. Now that Lizzie doll was one my Great Great Grandmother’s pride and joy. See back then it was much more clean, it was taken care of, and presented proudly in the middle of my Great Grandmother’s living room. Honestly she was treated like family, and that could’ve been because my Great Grandmother lost her mind, or it could’ve been because that doll took control of her. That doll had been passed down through the family, and at one point was not the heinous beast that it is now. We’re not sure what happened, but we have our theories. What I will say is that as the days went by my Great Grandmother started to lose her mind when the doll was around. Some of it though, seemed to not be by her own doing. When my Grandmother was a child and lived with the doll, the doll, she said, would almost feel lifelike. My Grandmother didn’t have a normal life growing up, and it’s a miracle she came out being as normal as she was. Because as the story goes, that doll was treated better than even she was. The doll was fed first, the doll got bathed first, the doll was actually given night time stories.. But it got to a point where these things seemed to automatically happen. As if her Mother wasn’t the one placing her in these situations. When my Grandmother would be sitting at the table waiting for dinner; the doll would appear right when she turned her head.. Like clockwork. When everyone would be sitting around telling stories, the doll would be listening right there with them, almost seemingly engaging with the story, looking at whoever would be talking. That doll always gave my Grandmother creepy vibes, and honestly I don’t know why she took it when her Mother died. But she said she felt like it was her obligation to. My Great Grandmother always loved that thing.
Elizabeth: Even though my Great Grandmother treated that doll better, than she treated her own Daughter, my Grandmother; it still felt like a little piece of her Mother was still with her, as she explained to me.. But the doll didn’t stop being a menace once my Grandmother grew into an adult. Even when she decided to take it, even in her own house, the doll would do things that were unexplainable. Nothing malicious, but always creepy. It didn’t seem to matter what my Grandmother would be doing, that doll would appear out of nowhere, just out of the blue, and would stare with those lifeless eyes right into the soul of my Grandmother it seemed. Make no mistake, my Grandmother always hated that doll. She loathed it for the way her own Mother treated it, she loathed it for even existing, and making her own existence feel lesser than. She thought it was enough that she took the doll in, and with that she had had it with the creepiness, and threw it down in her basement, in a closet, and hoped that was the end of it. But unfortunately that wasn’t able to do the trick, that doll would keep popping up, staring at her, and every time she would pop back up, she would go right back into the closet. Doesn’t sound too bad though right? I mean you can take a staring doll? But that’s not where this story ends, no it’s just the beginning. Because my Grandmother never liked that thing, or treated it with respect, it got angry. That doll, came back with a vengeance.
Shane Gates: What do you mean?
(Shane’s voice is noticeably shaky, and labored. After all, he just spent close to a year with this thing and never knew the actual story behind it.)
Elizabeth: My Grandmother never really wanted the doll in her house anyway. She never wanted to be around it, she never wanted to see it, she didn’t even want to know that she had it. So she decided to take it up a notch, and said to hell with feeling connected to her Mother through this thing. She went out back and made a fire pit, and threw that devil right into the flames. She watched as it burned, and melted, and convulsed in the flames. She was pleased with herself, and thought that the problem had been solved… But not too long after she entered the house, it started popping up again. But now, the charred wood was prevalent, and she could tell this thing wasn’t going to ever let her be. So she decided she just had to live with it… Back again to sitting next to this doll on the couch while she watched TV, waiting at the table while she made dinner. And worst of all, the rocking chair in her bedroom. Lizzie found herself quite comfortable in that rocking chair. My Grandmother did everything that she could to keep that thing away from her, but nothing worked. She would lock the door, she would lock Lizzie in the basement, she would put trip alarms.. And yet at night, the rocking chair in the corner of her room would rock back and forth, back and forth, back and forth… And wouldn’t stop until she would turn a light on. Once that light was turned on, do you know what she saw every time? The burnt up face of Lizzie staring back at her…
(Elizabeth evades her eyes from the gaze of Shane Gates, as it seems the story still pains her to say)
Elizabeth: But this was nothing new, and at a point she started paying it no mind. So she would turn the lights off, and just try to forget. So with the lights off, again she would hear the rocking of the chair, and it became quite a constant to her night time ritual. At night, the rocking chair in the corner of the room would rock back and forth. To the point my Grandmother seemingly used it as whitenoise. This seemingly angered Lizzie as she just wanted to be noticed.. Everything was quite mundane as far as hauntings go… Until one night, the rocking stopped, and the floor creaking began. With the creaking floor, my Grandma would turn over, and see nothing… But every night the creaking of the floor would get closer and closer to the bed, until it got so close to the bed that it stopped. My Grandmother turned around, and standing above her… Was Lizzie. Lizzie then hopped on that bed, and started choking the life out of my Grandmother, she gasped for air, until finally this phantom let go. She ran and turned the lights on only to see the doll Lizzie on the floor of the bedroom. Well she had enough, and called a Priest. They came over, and blessed the house, tried to bless the doll, and put her in a chained glass container, that was also blessed; that she put deep, hidden, in a closet in her basement. And that worked.. Or so she told us. Some of us believe that she just stopped updating us because she didn’t want us to worry. But, we didn’t hear a peep out of that doll… Until she passed away, and that doll was supposed to go to me.
Shane Gates: …
Elizabeth: I believe that my Great Grandmother never liked my Grandmother. I believe the fact that my Grandmother never accepted the doll as a sister as my Great Grandmother wanted, and that made my Great Grandmother despise my Grandmother. It’s been said within my family, that my Great Grandmother actually had the doll cursed, in a way to make it be a real life daughter so that she could fill the void that my Grandmother never could. She wanted the ideal Daughter, and she felt as though Lizzie was that Daughter. But in the quest to make this doll into something real, clearly it took a dark turn. That doll is pure evil. I’m not so sure that the doll isn’t the reason my Grandmother is now not with us anymore. Lizzie won’t stop until everyone is dead.. But, with proper care, the doll can be subdued. I know how to subdue Lizzie, I have done the research, and it is my burden to bare. When the doll was being passed down, my Mother wanted nothing to do with it, and she made that clear. I never minded a scary story, and I knew how to properly take care of it but; I never got the chance. Somehow she found her way to you, and it seems like.. She wants you.
Shane Gates: I have to go…
(Shane starts to walk away, but Elizabeth grabs his arm)
Elizabeth: Last year… During your graveyard match with Ms. Extreme, Lizzie appeared…. Heavenly Host Cemetery, that is where my Grandmother is buried, and that is where you had your match. I can only assume Lizzie was with my Grandmother this whole time, and she tracked the doll while she was with YOU.
(Shane just shakes his head)
Shane Gates: No no no, at Pain for Pride the doll was destroyed.
(Elizabeth looks up at Shane with cold dark eyes that Shane hadn’t seen before this moment)
Elizabeth: Lizzie can never be destroyed…
Shane Gates: :comeagain:
Elizabeth: We have to find her before she begins to hurt people again.. Before she latches onto the next soul that she wants to feast upon. You know Lizzie just as well as I do, and I feel that as a team, we can put an end to her.
Shane Gates: FEMALE COMPANIONSHIP?!!! Um.. I mean uhhh.. I don’t know..
Elizabeth: You have to help.. After all, Lizzie chose you..
(The camera pans in on Shane’s face, nervous about this encounter, as the scene fades)
(Voltage fades back to ringside, and Bella Braxton is seen in the ring with a microphone in her hand.)
Bella Braxton: Ladies and Gentlemen, the following contest is scheduled for…ONE FALL!
Crowd: ONE FALL!!!
Bella Braxton: And it is for number one contendership FOR THE EAW NEW BREED CHAMPIONSHIP!!
(The crowd cheers at the announcement before quickly changing to boos as “While She Sleeps” by Trophies of Violence plays as Alex Myers makes their way to the ring. They look extremely focused on this match, and they don’t pay attention to the negative reaction from the fans at all.)
Bella Braxton: Introducing first, from Seattle, Washington, weighing in at 170 pounds. THE KING OF PAIN! ALEX MYERS!
Persephone: The Demon is back again? Can’t there be a Grateful Dead concert or something they can go to instead?
James Peters: Will you stop? Alex Myers makes their way to the ring. Last week Alex Myers had a very strong showing against Kevin Hunter in their Voltage Debut. Will Alex be able to make it two in a row and become the Number One Contender? It’s very possible, but they will have to get past another up and coming Elitist first.
(Alex Myers enters the ring as “While She Sleeps” stops playing. Seconds later, the boos change to cheers as “Nothing Helps” by ONE OK ROCK plays as Mary S. Atlas makes her way to the ring.)
Bella Braxton: The opponent! From St. Louis, Missouri. Weighing 125 pounds. She is “MOST WANTED” MARY S. ATLAS!!
Rich Russillo: Listen to the ovation for Mary S. Atlas. She too was victorious last week when she was on the winning team with Jake Smith against Donovan Duke and her rival Holly Arrow.
James Peters: I highly doubt that the rivalry between Atlas and Arrow is close to being over, but Mary has much more important matters on her mind tonight. She is one win away from getting a shot at the New Breed Title.
Persephone: Nobody cares!
James Peters: I bet that Ryan Wilson cares about this match. He will be watching this match very closely since his next challenger will be the winner of this match. Two up and coming Elitists are competing for an amazing opportunity in perhaps the biggest match in their careers so far.
(Mary S. Atlas enters the ring and looks ready to fight. “Nothing Helps” stops playing as the referee motions for both wrestlers to the center of the ring to begin.
Rich Russillo: Mary has entered the ring and we are ready to begin. This is going to be a hell of a match. Mary S. Atlas! Alex Myers! Number One Contender’s Match coming up. The referee calls for the bell.
(DING! DING! DING!)
James Peters: The bell has rung and here we go. Our opening contest on Voltage is about to begin and the winner of this match will have a huge opportunity in the future. The winner becomes the Number One Contender and will face Ryan Wilson for the New Breed Championship. The two Elitists have a brief staredown in the ring before finally locking up in the center of the ring.
Rich Russillo: Alex Myers takes the early advantage and backs Mary up into the ropes. The referee goes to break them up, but Myers goes for a cheap shot. Swing and a miss as Mary ducks the shot and goes back into the center of the ring. She’s motioning for Alex to bring it on and Alex is happy to oblige. Myers is running in for a clothesline, but Mary ducks once again. Mary behind Myers and she tries to rollup Myers, but Myers doesn’t even stay down for a 1 count.
Persephone: Why go for a pin now? She hasn’t even done anything yet. Ditzy broad.
James Peters: Both are trying to get back to their feet, but Mary is just a little quicker. Myers running in, BUT MARY CATCHES MYERS RIGHT IN THE FACE WITH A DISCUS ELBOW. MYERS IS A LITTLE DAZED AS MARY CATCHES MYERS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HEAD WITH A BEAUTIFUL ROUNDHOUSE KICK!! MYERS IS DOWN! MARY HOOKS THE LEG AND GOES FOR THE COVER!!
ONNNEEEEE!
TWOOOOOO!!
Persephone: Damn, Myers kicks out. She needs to stop hitting him in the head. She’s just knocking sense INTO him. Stupid!
Rich Russillo: We’ll see if the head shots are mistakes or not, but right now Mary has the advantage as she drags Myers to their feet and whips them into the corner. Mary with multiple kicks to the midsection of Myers in the corner before she puts Myers on the top turnbuckle before climbing up to the top rope herself. What is she planning to do? Mary jumps and wraps her legs around the neck of Myers. MARY WITH THE SUPER FRANKENSTEINER OFF THE TOP….
James Peters: HOLD ON A SECOND! MYERS HOLDS ONTO THE ROPES AT THE LAST SECOND!! MARY CRASHES AND BURNS BACK IN THE RING!! SHIT! THAT LANDING WAS UGLY!! MARY LANDED HARD ON THE BACK OF HER HEAD AND NECK. I HOPE SHE ISN’T TOO HURT!
Persephone: Why not? She gets hurt. Ref calls the match. We go on with the show and I can continue thinking about Rexy. I miss him so much.
Rich Russillo: Don’t worry. You still have me.
Persephone: :mjcry: Don’t make me feel worse.
James Peters: Would you two focus on the match, dammit? Mary is still down and Myers is off the turnbuckle and back into the ring. Myers is eyeing Mary holding the back of her neck and head. There’s no doubt that there are evil intentions brewing in the mind of Alex Myers. MYERS RUNS AND DELIVERS A KICK RIGHT TO THE SIDE OF THE NECK OF MARY S. ATLAS!! MORE DAMAGE BEING DEALT TO THE NECK! MYERS ADDING INSULT TO INJURY WITH A KNEE DROP TO THE BACK OF HER NECK! THERE’S NO DOUBT THAT MARY HAS GOTTA BE HURTING! MYERS WITH A COVER OF THEIR OWN!
ONNNNEEEE!
TWWOOOOOOOO!!
THR–
Rich Russillo: MARY S. ATLAS KICKS OUT WITH AUTHORITY! SHE MIGHT BE HURTING, BUT SHE ISN’T GOING TO GIVE IT UP THAT EASY! NOT WITH A NEW BREED TITLE MATCH ON THE LINE! Myers brings Mary to her feet and whips her into the ropes. Myers puts their head down as Mary rebounds. MARY JUMPS AND LOCKS ONTO MYERS BEFORE CATCHING MYERS IN A SUNSET FLIP!! SHOULDERS ARE DOWN!
ONNNNNEEE!
TWWWOOOO!!
James Peters: Myers kicks out, but not before clapping their legs on both sides of Mary’s neck. That had to have done more damage to that already hurting neck. Alex Myers drags Mary S. Atlas by the hair to the bottom rope. ALEX IS CHOKING MARY ON THE BOTTOM ROPE! THE REF STARTS THE COUNT!
Referee: ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR!
James Peters: Myers breaks the choke, but not before delivering ANOTHER KNEE DROP TO THE BACK OF THE NECK! MYERS LOVES CAUSING PAIN AND IS CERTAINLY DOING A GOOD JOB OF IT! MYERS HAS STOPPED THE MOMENTUM OF MARY S. ATLAS DEAD IN ITS TRACKS!
Persephone: Damn! Hurry up and finish this boring match!
Rich Russillo: Alex Myers brings Mary back to her feet once again and whips her to the ropes once more. Mary rebounds and Alex goes for a clothesline, but Mary ducks and hits the ropes on the other side and COUNTERS WITH A SLINGBLADE TAKING ALEX MYERS DOWN! MARY WITH AN AMAZING COUNTER AND SHE ISN’T STOPPING THERE! MARY WITH LEFTS AND RIGHTS TO THE SKULL OF ALEX MYERS. MARY S. ATLAS BUILDING MOMENTUM. ATLAS DRAG MYERS UP AND HITS AND EXPLODER SUPLEX. LISTEN TO THE CROWD SHOWING THEIR SUPPORT FOR MARY S. ATLAS! MYERS IS ON ONE KNEE TRYING TO RECOVER, BUT MARY LOOKS READY TO STRIKE! MARY LASER FOCUSED ON HER OPPONENT!
James Peters: BAM!! BUZZSAW KICK RIGHT TO THE FACE OF ALEX MYERS. MYERS CUPPING THEIR FACE! WHERE EXACTLY DID THAT KICK CATCH MYERS BECAUSE MARY GOT ALL OF IT! MARY GOES FOR THE COVER!!
ONNNEEEE!!!
TWWWOOO!!!!!
THREEEEE!!!!!!
James Peters: ALEX MYERS GETS THE SHOULDER UP!! IT’S NOT OVER YET!!
Persephone: SHUT UP FOR A SECOND! Is there blood on the mat? YES!!! Finally something good happens in this match! MORE MORE MORE!!!!
Rich Russillo: Geez. But she isn’t wrong. ALEX MYERS IS BLEEDING FROM THE NOSE! IT HAS TO BE FROM THAT BUZZSAW KICK EARLIER AND MYERS DOES NOT LOOK HAPPY! Mary still has control of the matchup and whips Myers to the ropes. Instead of rebounding, Myers hooks their arms on the ropes. Mary runs to the ropes in hopes of clotheslining Myers to the outside, but Myers ducks AND MARY CRASHES TO THE OUTSIDE!
James Peters: NO SHE DOESN’T! ATLAS GRABS ONTO THE ROPES AND CATCHES HERSELF ON THE APRON! BUT MYERS SAW IT COMING AND DELIVERS A BASEBALL SLIDE DROPKICK TO THE ANKLES OF MARY AND SENDS HER TO THE FLOOR!! MYERS RUBS THEIR NOSE AND FINALLY SEES THE BLOOD FLOWING! LOOK AT THEIR EYES!! THERE IS A FIRE AND THEY ARE PISSED! MYERS SEES MARY TRYING TO RECOVER AND HITS THE ROPES! MYERS LOOKING TO FLY! SUICIDE DIVE CONNECTS AND MARY BOUNCES OFF THE TABLE IN FRONT OF US!!
Persephone: WATCH IT, BITCH! IF THE COFFEE SPILLS ON MY OUTFIT, IT’S YOUR ASS!
Rich Russillo: I’ll protect you! MARY IS BARELY HANGING ONTO THE TABLE TRYING TO RECOVER!! BUT THERE’S STILL AND LOOK AT THE FACE OF MYERS! WHAT AN EVIL LOOK!! MYERS ROLLS BACK IN THE RING AND IS GEARING UP TO FLY ONE MORE TIME! MYERS HITS THE ROPES LOOKING FOR ANOTHER SUICIDE DIVE! THE SUICIDE DIVE HITS AGAIN!!
Persephone: God, just shut up!
James Peters: LOOK AT MARY! LOOK AT MARY! AT THE VERY LAST SECOND, MARY WAS ABLE TO MUSTER UP ENOUGH STRENGTH AND COUNTER THE SUICIDE DIVE INTO A DDT. MARY CAUGHT ALEX BY THE NECK WHEN THEY FLEW THROUGH THE ROPES AT THE VERY LAST POSSIBLE SECOND! DID YOU HEAR THE THUD OF ALEX’S HEAD AND FACE WHEN MARY HIT THAT BOTH ELITISTS ARE DOWN RIGHT IN FRONT OF US AS THE REF STARTS THE COUNT!
ONE!
TWO!
Persephone: Just ring the damn bell! If we’re lucky, they knocked themselves out. Don’t make this any longer.
THREE!
FOUR!
James Peters: BOTH COMPETITORS HAVE YET TO MOVE. THIS MATCH COULD END AS A DOUBLE COUNTOUT!
FIVE!
Rich Russillo: THEY ARE STARTING TO MOVE! HOPEFULLY ONE OR BOTH OF THEM CAN BREAK THE REF’S TEN COUNT!
SIX!
SEVEN!
James Peters: THEY ARE PULLING THEMSELVES TO THEIR FEET! THEY ARE CUTTING IT CLOSE!
EIGHT!
NINE!
Rich Russillo: MARY S. ATLAS ROLLS INTO THE RING AT NINE! WILL SHE WIN THIS MATCH BY COUNTOUT AND BECOME NUMBER ONE CONTENDER!?
TE—
James Peters: NO SHE DOESN’T!! ALEX MYERS LUNGES INTO THE RING RIGHT BEFORE THE REF REACHES TEN!! SUCH DETERMINATION AND TENACITY FROM BOTH OF THESE YOUNG ELITISTS! THEY BOTH WANT THIS OPPORTUNITY AT THE NEW BREED CHAMPIONSHIP AND THEY BOTH WANT IT BAD! LOOK AT THEM NOW! MEETING BACK IN THE CENTER OF THE RING JUST GLARING AT EACH OTHER!!
Rich Russillo: MORE THAN GLARES NOW! ALEX JUST SLAPPED MARY IN THE FACE! NOW MARY RETALIATES WITH A SLAP TO THE NOSE! DAMN! THEIR NOSE MIGHT BE BROKEN BUT I DON’T THINK ALEX GIVES A DAMN IF IT IS! ALEX’S NOSE IS STARTING TO BLEED AGAIN AFTER SLAP FROM MARY!
Persephone: YES! MORE BLOOD! NOW LET’S GET THE BARBED WIRE AND TABLES!!
James Peters: Will you calm down? This isn’t a deathmatch, Persephone! This is just a… LOOK AT THEM NOW! ATLAS AND MYERS ARE THROWING FOREARMS IN EACH OTHERS FACES!! THEIR HEADS HAVE STILL GOT TO BE SORE. MYERS FROM THAT DDT OUTSIDE AND ATLAS FROM THE FRANKENSTEINER ATTEMPT EARLIER IN THE MATCH! THEY ARE JUST JUST THROWING ONE AFTER THE OTHER! ATLAS! MYERS! ATLAS! MYERS! ATLAS! MYERS! AT-NOPE! MYERS DUCKS AND GETS BEHIND ATLAS! MYERS PULLS THE LEGS OUT FROM UNDER MARY AND SHE CRASHES! LOOK AT THE WAY MYERS IS CONTORTING MARY’S BODY! IS MYERS GOING FOR WHAT I THINK IT IS!
Rich Russillo: IT’S EXACTLY WHAT YOU THINK IT IS!! LOOK AT THAT SUBMISSION! IT’S A MODIFIED STF!! ALEX MYERS CALLS IT “DAWN OF TORMENT” AND IT IS LIVING UP TO ITS NAME BECAUSE THAT MOVE IS CERTAINLY TORMENTING MARY S. ATLAS! LOOK AT THE WAY MARY’S NECK IS BENT! WITH ALL THE DAMAGE THAT HAS ALREADY BEEN DONE TO THE NECK, MARY HAS GOT TO BE IN EXCRUCIATING PAIN!! BUT MARY IS A FIGHTER AND WILL DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO STAY IN THIS MATCH.
Persephone: Do you hear Alex yelling at Mary to tap out? I don’t like the little demon, but I agree. Just tap out, stupid. Nobody cares about this match.
James Peters: Well there are two people in the ring who would disagree with you. LOOK AT THE WAY ALEX MYERS IS LEANING BACK!! THAT’S PULLING MARY UP AND PUTTING MORE PRESSURE ON THE NECK OF MARY S. ATLAS! WILL MARY GIVE IT UP? SHE NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING OR IT WILL NO DOUBTEDLY BE OVER! MARY IS STARTING TO SCREAM IN PAIN! I DON’T THINK SHE CAN TAKE ANY MORE PAIN. WHAT THE HELL IS SHE DOING NOW?
Rich Russillo: I CAN TELL YOU EXACTLY WHAT SHE’S DOING! SHE REALIZES SHE HAS A HAND FREE!! SHE IS STARTING TO FIGHT BACK!! SHE STRIKING THE ARMS OF ALEX MYERS, BUT IT ISN’T WORKING! SHE NEEDS TO THINK OF SOMETHING ELSE OR SHE MIGHT HAVE TO TAP!! I THINK SHE FIGURED IT OUT! SHE WENT FOR IT AND FLUNG HER FIST WITH ALL HER MIGHT AND CAUGHT ALEX MYERS RIGHT IN THE CHEEK!! WHAT A SHOT!!
James Peters: ALEX MYERS BROKE THE HOLD!! WHAT GREAT EFFORT AND INGENUITY BY MARY S. ATLAS BUT HAS THE DAMAGE BEEN DONE? SHE WAS IN THAT SUBMISSION FOR A GOOD WHILE! BUT ALEX ISN’T GOING TO LET HER RECOVER AND DELIVERING KICKS TO THE BACK OF MARY. ALEX WANTS TO CAUSE AS MUCH PAIN AS POSSIBLE BEFORE FINISHING HER OFF!! MYERS PICKS UP MARY LOOKING FOR A SUPLEX, BUT MARY SOMEHOW SHIFTS HER WEIGHT AND COUNTERS INTO AN INSIDE CRADLE. SHOULDERS ARE DOWN!!
ONNNNNEEEE!!!
TWWWOOOOO!!!!
THREEEEEEEE!!!!!
Persephone: Alex Myers kicks out again. Stop doing that!!
Rich Russillo: MARY S. ATLAS ALMOST STOLE THE VICTORY!! BUT HOW MUCH DOES SHE HAVE LEFT? MARY IS ON ONE KNEE TRYING TO GET A BREATHER, BUT HERE COMES ALEX!! ALEX WITH A FULL HEAD OF STEAM, BUT MARY CATCHES ALEX WITH A DROP TOE HOLD INTO THE ROPES!! ALEX GOT CAUGHT ON THE CHIN BY THE ROPES BUT THEY QUICKLY RECOVER!! MYERS TRIES TO GO FOR MARY AGAIN BUT…
BAM!!
James Peters: HEADSHOT!! WITH POSSIBLY HER LAST BIT OF ENERGY MARY HITS THE HEADSHOT!! THAT SUPERKICK CAUGHT ALEX RIGHT ON THE MONEY!! DID YOU SEE ALEX’S NECK SNAP BACK? WHAT A SHOT!! MARY FALLS INTO THE COVER!!! THIS HAS GOT TO BE IT!
ONNNEEEEEE!!!
TWWWWOOOOO!!!
THHHRRRREEEEEEEE!!!!!
Rich Russillo: IT IS NOT OVER YET!! ALEX MYERS BARELY AND I MEAN BARELY GETS THE SHOULDER UP!! MARY S. ATLAS IS IN SHOCK!!! SHE LIKE MANY OF THE PEOPLE HERE THOUGHT THAT KICK WOULD GET THE JOB DONE!! WHAT STRENGTH AND HEART BEING SHOWN BY BOTH OF THESE ELITISTS! THEY ARE WILLING TO PUT IT ALL ON THE LINE ALL TO BECOME NUMBER ONE CONTENDER FOR THE NEW BREED TITLE!
Persephone: You call it strength and heart. I call it ignorance and stupidity. These two don’t know when to give it up.
James Peters: Whatever you wanna call it, they are both showing their potential here tonight! Mary needs to stay focused and keep on Alex Myers. She is giving Myers too much time to recover. Mary is going to get Myers to their feet, but MYERS WITH A QUICK GO BEHIND!! MYERS CATCHES MARY IN A SCHOOLBOY!!
ONNNNNEEEEEE!!!!!
TWWWWWOOOO!!!!
THREEE—-
James Peters: ATLAS KICKS OUT AGAIN! SHE ALMOST GOT CAUGHT!! MARY BACK TO HER FEET AS MYERS HITS THE ROPES!! MARY GOING FOR A CLOTHESLINE, BUT MYERS DUCKS AND CATCHES THE RIGHT ARM OF ATLAS!! MYERS GETS THEMSELF IN A CRUCIFIX POSITION!! I THINK MYERS IS GOING FOR THE FINAL SYMPHONY!! BUT MARY MUSTERS AS MUCH STRENGTH AS SHE CAN FROM DEEP INSIDE TO SWING MYERS OUT OF THE CRUCIFIX!! ATLAS AND MYERS ARE NOW FACE TO FACE AND MARY QUICKLY CATCHES MYERS WITH A BOOT TO THE GUT!!!
Rich Russillo: MARY S. ATLAS IS GOING FOR HER VERSION OF THE BRAINBUSTER! MARY HAS MYERS LOCKED IN AND IS TRYING TO LIFT THEM UP, BUT MYERS IS TRYING TO FIGHT IT!! MYERS IS KICKING AWAY TRYING TO GET FREE, BUT THE REFEREE GOT KICKED RIGHT IN THE FACE!! THE REFEREE IS HOLDING HIS FACE AS HE GOES DOWN! HE IS OUT!!
Persephone: Who gives a shit?
James Peters: SHE DIDN’T SEE WHAT HAPPENED BUT MARY S. ATLAS FINALLY GETS MYERS UP IN THE AIR AND QUICKLY DROPS THEM DOWN!! SHE STILL HITS THE SLEEPING ARROW!! BRAINBUSTER RIGHT ON THE MONEY!! ALEX MYERS DROPPED RIGHT ON THEIR HEAD! THEY ARE OUT!! MARY HOOKS THE LEG AND GOES FOR THE COVER!! IF THE REF WAS STILL CONSCIOUS, THIS MATCH WOULD BE OVER, BUT MARY DIDN’T SEE WHAT HAPPENED DURING THAT BRAINBUSTER ATTEMPT!! SHE LOOKS AROUND WONDERING WHY THERE IS NO COUNT GOING!! NOW SHE SEES THE REFEREE’S UNMOVING FORM BY THE ROPES! SHE SLAPS THE MAT IN FRUSTRATION! SHE THOUGHT SHE HAD THE MATCH WON!! THE EXHAUSTED MARY S. ATLAS IS SLOWLY TRYING TO CRAWL OVER TO THE REFEREE AND WAKE HIM UP!
Persephone: Idiot! Why the fuck did she do that? Bitch should’ve been more careful and shit like this wouldn’t happen, this match would be over, and I won’t have to look at them anymore. How careless can you be or do they just hate me?
Rich Russillo: HOLD ON A SECOND! WHAT IS GOING ON NOW? WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT? SOMEONE CAME OUT FROM UNDER THE RING!! WHO THE HELL WAS THAT? I COULDN’T SEE WHO IT WAS!!
James Peters: I’LL TELL YOU WHO THAT IS! IT’S HOLLY ARROW WITH A KENDO STICK!! WHAT THE HELL IS HOLLY ARROW DOING IN THE RING? OF COURSE THE REFEREE HAS TO BE KNOCKED OUT RIGHT NOW!
WHACK!!!
James Peters: DAMN IT!! HOLLY ARROW JUST STRUCK THE BACK OF MARY S. ATLAS WITH THAT KENDO STICK!! WHAT THE HELL IS HOLLY ARROW DOING? SHE IS RUINING THIS AMAZING MATCHUP! I KNOW THAT MARY AND HOLLY DON’T LIKE EACH OTHER, BUT THIS IS RIDICULOUS! LOOK AT THE STUNNED LOOK ON MARY’S FACE AFTER BEING HIT! SHE CERTAINLY WAS NOT EXPECTING THAT! MARY CAN NOT BE HAPPY BECAUSE SHE IS SLOWLY GETTING BACK TO HER FEET! SHE WANTS TO KNOW WHO HIT HER! SLOWLY SHE TURNS TO TRY AND CATCH THE PERPETRATOR WHO STRUCK HER BUT I DON’T THINK SHE’LL LIKE WHO IT IS!! SHE SEES HOLLY! BUT SHE DOESN’T GET A CHANCE TO FULLY REGISTER HOLLY’S PRESENCE BECAUSE HOLLY HAS BEEN WINDING UP TO STRIKE AGAIN!! WATCH OUT MARY!
Persephone: Bitch probably deserves it! Other bitch should hit her hard enough that we get more blood.
WHACK!
Rich Russillo: HOLLY STRIKES AGAIN! HOLLY ARROW WITH THE KENDO STICK SHOT AGAIN!! YOU CAN PRACTICALLY SEE THE DISDAIN AND THE HATRED THAT HOLLY ARROW HAS FOR MARY RADIATING FROM THAT KENDO STICK!! THIS TIME TO THE HEAD OF MARY S. ATLAS AND MARY COULDN’T BLOCK THE SHOT! MARY IS DAZED BUT SHE IS SOMEHOW STILL ON HER FEET!! I DON’T THINK IT WILL BE FOR LONG BECAUSE HOLLY ARROW ISN’T DONE YET!! SHE LOOKING FOR A TRIFECTA! SHE WANTS TO PUT AN EXCLAMATION POINT ON HER HANDIWORK AND THE TROUBLE SHE’S CAUSED! SHE QUICKLY HITS THE ROPES AND…
James Peters: PANICLAND!! HOLLY ARROW WITH PANICLAND ON MARY S. ATLAS!! THAT CAUGHT HER RIGHT IN THE FACE! DID YOU SEE THE POINT OF HOLLY’S BOOT HIT MARY IN THE TEMPLE? MARY S. ATLAS JUST DROPPED TO THE MAT LIKE A STONE! SHE HAS GOT TO BE KNOCKED OUT BECAUSE SHE IS NOT MOVING! LOOK AT HOLLY NOW! SHE IS SMILING AT THE END RESULT!!
Persephone: I hope that this means that the match is about the end.
Rich Russillo: HOLLY ARROW ROLLS OUT OF THE RING AND ALEX MYERS IS BACK TO THEIR FEET!! I’M NOT SURE IF MYERS REALIZES WHAT WENT DOWN, BUT THEY CERTAINLY SEE MARY OUT COLD ON THE MAT. MYERS LOOKS AT THE CORNER AND DRAGS MARY CLOSER TO THE CORNER!! MYERS CLIMBS TO THE SECOND ROPE!! MYERS WANTS TO FLY ONE MORE TIME AND HOPEFULLY PUT THE NAIL IN THE COFFIN OF MARY S. ATLAS!! MYERS TAKES ONE QUICK LOOK BEFORE JUMPING!
James Peters: THE SINNERS LULLABY CONNECTS!!! THE FULL WEIGHT OF ALEX MYER LANDING ON THE CHEST OF MARY S. ATLAS!! THAT HAD TO JUST KNOCK OUT WHATEVER WIND MARY HAD LEFT. MYERS ADJUSTS AND IS GOING FOR THE COVER!! THE REFEREE IS WAKING UP AND IS STARTING TO COME TO AND IS BEGINNING THE COUNT!! COME ON!!! NOT THIS WAY, REF!! NOT THIS WAY!! WHAT A CRIME!!!
ONNNEEEEEEE!!

(DING! DING! DING!)
(“While She Sleeps” plays as Alex Myers rolls off Mary and has their hand raised in victory. The crowd is heavily booing. Partially because of how much they don’t like Alex, but they are also booing Holly Arrow’s interference that led to Mary losing the match.)
Bella Braxton: Here is your winner and the NUMBER ONE CONTENDER FOR THE NEW BREED CHAMPIONSHIP…ALEX MYERS!!
James Peters: What a match!! Both of these young Elitists fought so hard and wanted to be Number One Contender, but it is Alex Myers who walks out the winner. Alex Myers will now face Ryan Wilson for the New Breed Championship. Mary S. Atlas did amazing ,but there is no other way to say it. Mary S. Atlas got screwed. She tried so hard, but thanks to Holly Arrow, it wasn’t enough.
Persephone: Who cares? She knew Holly was pissed and the moron should’ve had eyes in the back of her head. I’m just glad the match is over.
Rich Russillo: Either way, congratulations to Alex Myers for winning this match. They have a tall task ahead of them when they face Ryan Wilson. Look at it, Holly just grabbed a microphone and is getting back in the ring.
(As Alex makes their way out of the ring and to the back “While She Sleeps” stops playing, and Holly Arrow walks back into the ring. Mary S. Atlas is finally starting to move, but very slowly. The crowd is loudly booing Holly Arrow as she simply smiles and absorbs the crowd’s reaction.)
Holly Arrow: Poor Mary. You were so close, but you once again fell just a little bit short.
(Holly starts laughing at what she said since she knows that part of the reason Mary lost was because of her.)
Holly Arrow: What did I tell you, Mary? What did I tell you? I just showed the world what exactly you are, Mary. You are absolutely NOTHING! Without me, that’s all you will amount to in this company. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!! Yet, you just don’t seem to want to listen to what I have to say.
(Holly gets down on one knee and gets closer to the face of Mary S. Atlas. Mary is in pain, but she is locking eyes with Holly.)
Holly Arrow: You know how sick and tired I am of you, but you don’t seem to want to go away and stay out of my business. So if you really want to keep up all of this back and forth stuff that we have been doing since Pain for Pride, how about we settle this like women. I have an idea! How about a match…
(Holly looks out to the crowd for a quick second before getting back in Mary’s face.)
Holly Arrow: AT BLOODSPORT!!
(The crowd cheers at the possibility of these two beating the hell out of each other at Bloodsport.)
Holly Arrow: So what do you say, Mary? Are you going to step up and accept my challenge for Bloodsport?
(Mary S. Atlas finally is able to sit up as she holds her ribs and stomach in pain. She looks right in Holly’s face. They glare at each other for a moment before Mary nods the affirmative. She wants this match at Bloodsport.)
Holly Arrow: I guess I’ll see you at Bloodsport, Mary. Just be aware of one thing. I’m going to make sure that accepting this match will be the biggest mistake you ever made.
(Holly gets back to her feet and looks to leave the ring, but she drops the mic and quickly turns around to kick Mary right in the ribs. Mary is squirming in pain, but Holly will not quit. Holly is kicking Mary in the ribs again and again.)
James Peters: HOLLY ARROW ATTACKING MARY ONCE AGAIN WITH THOSE KICKS TO THE RIBS! HASN’T SHE DONE ENOUGH? What a heinous assault by Holly Arrow! SOMEBODY COME OUT AND STOP HER!
(Holly delivers one more kick to the ribs for good measure. She takes a quick second to pose for the crowd like they love, but they don’t and they are booing her as loud as possible.)
Rich Russillo: How delusional can Holly Arrow be? She thinks the fans are still in love with her, but they are booing her right out of the building!
Persephone: Maybe she’s stupid!
(Holly stops posing and grabs Mary S. Atlas back to her feet by the hair. She gives Mary a quick little pat on the cheek for good measure.)
Rich Russillo: AND HOLLY IS STILL NOT DONE! She wants to make sure that Mary S. Atlas pays for what she did last week and for accepting the challenge for Bloodsport.
Holly Arrow: (off-mic) SHORYUKEN!
(Holly lets go of Mary’s hair and quickly hits her SHORYUKEN Uppercut.)
James Peters: AND HOLLY ARROW WITH THE SHORYUKEN! UPPERCUT CAUGHT HER RIGHT ON THE JAW AND MARY’S NECK SNAPS BACK BEFORE SHE FALLS BACK TO THE MAT!! MARY IS NOT MOVING AND HOLLY IS SO PROUD OF HERSELF!! GET HER OUT OF THE RING!
(Holly Arrow takes one more second to look at the fallen and beaten body of Mary S. Atlas before leaving the ring. Medical staff run past Holly and rush to the ring to check on Mary. Holly has an evil smile on her face as she watches the medical team help Mary as the scene fades away.)
(Commercial for the next Street Fighter game, featuring Holly Arrow as a guest character.)
(Voltage returns as ‘The Outsiders’ by Erich Church plays throughout the arena. Donovan Duke enters the arena to a mixed reception from the Voltage crowd.)
Bella Braxton: LADIES AND GENTLEMAN, PLEASE WELCOME THE 24/7 CONTRACCCTTT HOLDDDEERRRRRR, DONOOVVAAAANNNN DUKKEEEEE!!!!
(Crowd mostly cheers for Donovan Duke as he walks down the ramp, clearly intent written on his face as he’s calling for a microphone.)
James Peters: Ladies and gentleman, last week we saw the team of Jake Smith and Mary S. Atlas defeat the team of Donovan Duke and Holly Arrow after Jake rolled up Donovan Duke and escaped with a quick pin.
Rich Russillo: Whoa, a pin is a pin and a win is a win.
Persephone: And you two are fucking dingbats and the guy in the ring right now is an attention vacuum like no other.
(Donovan Duke begins to speak.)
Donovan Duke: Last week, I lost. That’s what everyone wants to hear right? The plain and simple fact of the matter. Well, things happen and Jake knew he had to roll me up while my partner’s skull was essentially splattered all over the floor. He could never have dropped me and pinned me like any actual elitist might have tried. But hey, that’s Jake Smith after all, isn’t it?
Donovan Duke: A guy whose career survives on shortcuts and not really putting the work in. A guy who relies heavily on his ability to take the rat route of any situation and calling his results legitimate. Just the kind of competitor who fucking sucks, putting it simply. He could never and would never look me in my eyes and pull that same shit. Look a man in his face and actually fight like the man he claims to be, he just could never do it. He never will, so I’m not gonna expect him to.
(Donovan smiles and ponders as he lightly walks around the ring.)
Donovan Duke: I guess it stings differently now because I’m on the other side of Jake’s antics. I’m not suffocating in the idea that I’ll never achieve my goals because I’ve got the evidence to show that Insurgency was only ever just another route to what was Donovan Duke’s eventual breakthrough. But as I said, he’s gonna be doing that the rest of his career until everyone catches on and realizes Jake Smith is the world’s greatest fraud.
(Voltage crowd cheers for Donovan.)
Donovan Duke: You know, Jake was a guy who despite promising to have our best and only OUR best interests at heart, always alienated me. Always pinned defeats and lost momentum on me and allowed me to shelter him from the bombshells of his career’s worst mistakes. And after a veiled group decision that Donovan Duke was Insurgency’s scapegoat, I knew something NEEDED to change. Everything up to that point had been finding my way, but at that point, it was time my career NEEDED to turn something around. I showed the world that I have more potential than any member of Insurgency and I was done with the bullshit. My career is only taking the best turns and biggest opportunities. But Jake’s?…
(Donovan Duke laughs, almost indiscernible between authentic and inauthentic.)
Donovan Duke: Jake is still where he was when we started Insurgency, he’s still where he was a year before we started Insurgency. Actually, scratch that, all those years ago Jake actually hadn’t used up all of his potential yet. Now? Jake is stuck in his ways. His short ass self isn’t holding a candle to where I’ll go from here because I’m on a mission to take over this brand. You know, I’m glad we ended up on Voltage together, Jake, you’ll not only have a first hand seat to watch all that I’ll do in EAW, while you fail, but I’ll also be occupying the spots you’ve been undeservingly hogging for years now.
Donovan Duke: So that roll up win, count it in your book, Jake, it’s all you’ll get ever again. But I’m moving upwards and onwards. Moving up the ladders you’re scared to death to go ANYWHERE at all. So, smedium sized Jake Smith can get fucked. Time to focus on Bloodsport.
(Crowd cheers as Donovan Duke holds his finger up, as if he’s got something to say about the first Voltage event of the season.)
Donovan Duke: I’m a top acquisition for this brand and I want a statement match on its first event of the season.
(Crowd cheers as Donovan says he wants a match at Bloodsport.)
Donovan Duke: Jamie, Myles, Chris Elite, hell, even the chance to bury Jake Smith once and for all. Either way, I want a big opportunity at Bloodsport…or rather, I’ll put up a big opportunity at Bloodsport.
(The crowd goes quiet in anticipation of what he’s going to say.)
Donovan Duke: So, I’m putting up an open challenge for Bloodsport, 2021. Anybody and everybody can get it and you know what, I’ll put this 24/7 Contract on the line as well. Any title shot, any time. The chance of a lifetime and I’ll put it up against ANYBODY. Any single member of that locker room can get it at Bloodsport because I’m looking to make a statement. I want a big match and I want a dangerous opponent. And if this contract isn’t motivation enough to frankly take your matches against Donovan Duke as the most serious business you could be involved in, I don’t know what is.
(The crowd waits on their toes as the stage remains silent and the challenge is still unanswered.)
Donovan Duke….
(….)
Donovan Duke: I-
(‘Loser’ by Charles Hamilton begins to play as the Voltage crowd slowly cheers Danny Tanner onto the stage.)
James Peters: Maybe not quite the Jamie-Myles caliber, but a challenger nonetheless!
(Donovan Duke appears confused, as if Danny Tanner can’t be serious.)
Donovan Duke: Uhhh..you’re a roster member.?
Danny Tanner:…Yeah pal!? I was here last week, you don’t remember me, big guy?
Donovan Duke: No, I do, I thought you were a local talent to sugarcoat one of EAW’s next prospects.
Danny Tanner: Nah, bro. I’m the guy who’s gonna take that 24/7 Contract at Bloodsport!
(Voltage crowd cheers excitedly as Danny smiles and amps them up.)
Danny Tanner: Yeah and do you know the kind of attention that will be coming my way after I beat you? The kind of females imma be bagging? Shiddddd I’m cashing in that v-v-card the night of Bloodsport, brobro!
Donovan Duke: I’m gonna pretend that you didn’t say that and try for one second to comprehend that your first Free-Per-View event could be for the 24/7 contract title against me. Have you actually even had one match in EAW, yet?
Danny Tanner: Well, apparently I’m gonna! And according to you, it’ll be a big one!
Donovan Duke: You know, I’ve seen it all. I guess I’m so used to looking at almost insurmountable conditions and heights, that it’s odd seeing someone so…green. So prone to being hurt and being embarrassed. This could be the most catastrophic choice of your life, “brobro”.
Danny Tanner: My life? Naw, your life. It’ll be the worst mistake of your life to not have taken Danny Tanner more seriously. It’ll cost you your contract and all the hype that goes with it. Ima take that and then ima take whatever bitches you got, even though right now that looks like zero.
Donovan Duke: Wait, didn’t you just say you were a virgin? :wtf:
Danny Tanner: Naw, said I got plans to cash that shit in. :ufdup:
Donovan Duke: Jesus Christ. I’m almost speechless. You know, I am surprised, I’m surprised that of all people who could’ve walked out onto that stage and staked their claim at this opportunity, it was Danny Tanner. And without one match under your belt, you’re in for a rough time to say the least. But I’m a man of my word…
(Danny Tanner smiles and nods his head.)
Donovan Duke: So, I accept your challenge. At Bloodsport, you’ll be going one on one with Donovan Duke for the 24/7 Contract holder title. And word of wisdom, Andrea will never love you, buddy.
Danny Tanner: Bro, she has to meet me before she can love me?
Donovan Duke: Yeah and the fact that she hasn’t goes to show what a small speck you are in an indifferent universe as far as you’re concerned. At Bloodsport, I’ll make a statement that nobody but the best should be challenging Donovan Duke and I’ll defend this 24/7 Contract against the man I promised I would.
(Danny Tanner grins as Donovan begins to leave the ring.)
Donovan Duke: I’ll see you at Bloodsport, bitchboy.
(Danny Tanner laughs and replies.)
Danny Tanner: Yeah brodie, yeah you will. And you’ll lose that contract like the loser you’ve always been.
(The crowd erupts with laughter and cheers as they get excited for the heating up rivalry that was just born between these two.)
(Donovan Duke looks back at Danny, laughs, then walks back up the ramp with meaningful intent in his eyes.)
James Peters: Well, you heard it here first folks! At Voltage’s first Free-Per-Event of the season, Danny Tanner will face Donovan Duke in an open challenge for that 24/7 Contract! What a chance for Danny!
Persephone: Chance? Are you kidding me LMFAO. He’s getting fucking whooped. He’s like a puppy who doesn’t know what it’s like to get kicked. And Donovan Duke? There’s a reason only a loser answered his challenge, nobody gives a shit about him.
James Peters: Well, someone’s cereal didn’t have milk in it this morning.
Rich Russillo: Well, either way, he’s got as much of a chance as anybody because as far as we know, he could be incredibly talented! This is his opportunity to show the world he means business and my lord, what an opportunity it is!
(Danny Tanner leaves the ring with a smile on his face and elbow bumps fans on his way up the ramp. Voltage fades to commercial break.)
(Commercial promoting the final episode of Loki, currently on Disney+.)
(Voltage fades back to ringside, and Bella Braxton stands inside the middle of the ring.)
Bella Braxton: The following contest is scheduled for ONE FALL!!
Crowd: ONE FALL!!

Bella Braxton: Introducing FIRST! From Long Island, New York! Weighing in at 210 pounds! The Wrestling Machine! LUCAAAAAAAAAAAAAS JOHN-SOOOOOOOOOOONNN!!
James Peters: Lucas Johnson failed to defeat Ryan Wilson, but this week he’s looking to get a victory under his belt! I’m sure he has what it takes to do better than he did last week:
Persephone: Of course he can do better! He lost to Ryan Wilson of all people!
Rich Russillo: Not the way he wanted to start the season but tonight is a chance to get that first win, something tells me he is ready for a fight tonight!
( The lights dim to red as ‘Swallowing The Rabbit Whole’ begins. Shane walks out and sadistically smiles at the camera as he walks down to the ring. Once he climbs up to the apron all the lights dim to black but a spotlight that is fixated on Shane appears as he enters the ring and gives a menacing look to the camera and his opponent. )
Bella Braxton: And his opponent! From Huntington Beach, Florida! Weighing in at 213 pounds: SHAAAAAANE GAAAAAAATES!!!!
James Peters: Having lost a closely fought battle to Raven Roberts last week, Shane is in the same boat as Lucas. Both of them are looking to add a win under their belt here.
Persephone: Two losers, one will get a win. Yay?
Rich Russillo: Shane showed he was able to throw with the best by his fight against the Bird of Prey, this week he has a chance to win and get his season really started!
( Ding Ding Ding! )
James Peters: And here we go! This match is officially underway. Both men are looking to get their first win of the season tonight. Let’s see who wants it enough to get it! Those two aren’t afraid to do whatever is required in order to make it to the Dub so this should be interesting! Both men are circling each other in the middle of the ring live before this capacity crowd inside Minute Maid Park! Lock up between both men, they struggle and strain for a bit but Lucas has the advantage with a headlock followed by a quick hip toss takedown forcing his grip to still be tightly around Shane’s head. The psychopath tries to break free but doesn’t matter too as Johnson is keeping this match grounded very early on!
Rich Russillo: Lucas tries to quickly turn this into a crossface maneuver wanting to force Gates into submission but his opponent catches on and slips out during the transition and gets free of Lucas’ grasp! Both men get up to their knees! Shane throws a thumb to the eyes blinding Lucas temporarily as he holds his face from the surprise strike and Shane takes advantage by throwing in a dropkick to the face! Lucas didn’t see it coming and he couldn’t dodge it! Down goes Lucas and Shane isn’t done as he goes to the ropes and bounces back quickly dropping against Lucas with a running senton! He quickly gets up and repeats the move not wasting any time, he actually gets up even faster as he goes to and back from the ropes for a third running senton! Lucas twitches each time! Gates with a co-No! Lucas shoves him away almost instantly!
Penelope: Sure as if Gates was going to win with just three Sentons! Please!
Rich Russillo: I agree, but it sure gives him the edge early on.
James Peters: The question is how long will he keep said edge!? Picking Lucas up he brings him down with a snap suplex crisp and quick and down goes Lucas who holds his lower back now. He still moves to get up but gets a kick to the back by Gates followed by a double axe handle! Shane is growing more aggressive as he is getting more and more attacks in, this doesn’t bode well for Lucas if he picks things up! Gates picking up Lucas, helping him to a vertical base before whipping him into the ropes! An attempt at a big boot missed by Gates as Johnson bounces to the other ropes! RUNNING CLOTHESLINE BY LUCAS!! HE ALMOST TOOK SHANE’S HEAD OFF WITH THAT SINGULAR CLOTHESLINE WHAT FORCE!!! SHANE GOES DOWN BUT HE QUICKLY GETS BACK UP! WHAM! DOWN HE GOES AGAIN WITH ANOTHER CLOTHESLINE BUT HE GETS BACK UP ONCE M-WHAM!!! ANOTHER CLOTHESLINE BY LUCAS THIS TIME SHANE IS TAKING LONGER TO GET TO HIS FEET HIS LEGS WOBBLING A BIT!
Rich Russillo: But that doesn’t seem to bother the Emperor of Violence at all as he goes for a SWINGING NECK BREAKER ON SHANE AGAIN HE DROPS TO THE MAT THIS TIME HE IS HOLDING THE BACK OF HIS NECK! Lucas keeps the pressure on with a leg drop on Shane! He goes for another! AND THEN A THIRD HIS LEGS LOOKS LIKE A MASSIVE LOG WITH THE IMPACT OF THE MOVES! The Tables Have Turned In Favor Of Lucas Johnson! WILL HE BE ABLE TO KEEP THE PRESSURE ON? Shane is down and LUCAS TRIES TO GO FOR THE ANKLE LOCK BUT SHANE MANAGES TO SCATTER FROM THE FLOOR TO THE ROPES GRABBING ONTO THEM AND THE OFFICIAL FORCES LUCAS TO LET GO OF GATES!
Persephone: Smart by Shane I guess, but boring.
James Peters: Lucas backs off of Shane under the official’s orders while Shane moves to his feet. The official is starting an argument with Johnson AND GATES TRIES TO TAKE ADVANTAGE BY SNEAKING PAST THE OFFICIAL AND THROW A BIG BOOT TO LUCAS BUT JOHNSON GRABS THE LEG! HE TWISTS IT TRYING TO GO FOR THE ANKLE LOCK AGAIN BUT GATES TURNS AND MULE KICKS LUCAS IN THE CHEST! Lucas drops the leg backing off into the ropes as Shane grunts and spins around quickly charging at Lucas and tackle him into a corner before driving in some solid shoulders into the midsection of his opponent! He goes with power into each hit as Lucas is rammed into the corner!! Shane isn’t done he grabs at Lucas’ arm back stepping into the center of the ring before going for a massive swing AND WHIP JOHNSON WITH STRENGTH INTO THE OTHER TURNBUCKLE!! LUCAS SLAMS INTO IT THEN FALLS DOWN FACE FIRST! DAMN!
Rich Russillo: Gates is on a roll right now and Johnson is getting the worst of it! Picked up by Gates, Lucas is seated on the top turnbuckle GATES IMMEDIATELY GOES FOR A PELE KICK!! THE ELEVATION NEEDED TO BE ABLE TO CONNECT WITH LUCAS’ JAW WAS IMPRESSIVE! JOHNSON IS LEANING FORWARD LOOKING LIKE HE IS ABOUT TO FALL FROM THE CORNER BUT GATES GET’S UP AND PICKS HIM UP OFF THE CORNER AND SPINS! THE KILL SHOT BY GATES!! SPIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINE BUSTEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR FOLLOWED BY A POWERFUL SUPERKICK THAT GETS LUCAS INTO THE OTHER CORNER! HE is in a whole lot of trouble now as Gates charges forth BIG BOOT INTO THE CORNER! BIG BIG BOOT INTO THE CORNER AND LUCAS CRUMBLES FACE FIRST ON THE MAT!!
Persephone: Cover by Gates! End this, please!
ONNNNEEEE!!
TWWWOOOOO!!!
Persephone: Ugh! Why Lucas?! One more second and we were off to better things!! Damn it!
James Peters: Shane looks annoyed to see his efforts did not translate into victory especially with the Kill Shot which is one of his many signature moves! It came close though but he will need to do more if he wants to leave Minute Maid Park the winner tonight! Meanwhile, Lucas Johnson is rolling outside of the ring looking to recover if he wants a chance to win as Shane is provoking the crowd who is booing him something fierce! He doesn’t seem bothered as he points to himself and screams to them that he is the best! The official is counting for Lucas now as he is still outside the ring leaning against the security railing surrounding the ring.
Persephone: You know who is the best?
Rich Russillo: Me?
Persephone: Ew, no. Rexy :blessed:!!!
James Peters: Lucas is still staggering to the outside of the ring! Shane has really done a number on the Wrestling Machine and the referee is still counting warning the belligerent to get back inside the ropes or risk disqualification! Gates rolls his eyes, he looks down Lucas is slowly moving to the apron trying to move inside of the ring. Shane Gates from inside of the ring bounces off the ropes running for a suicide dive to Lucas on the outside HOLY SHIT!!! LUCAS CAUGHT SHANE WITH THE BLUEPRINT! THE RKO BY LUCAS JOHNSON TO COUNTER THE SUICIDE DIVE OF SHANE!! HIS HEAD GETS PLANTED HARD INTO THE MAT COVERING THE HARD FLOOR OF THE ARENA!!! THAT LITERALLY CAME OUT OF NOWHERE!!!
Crowd: HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!
Rich Russillo: GATES STAYED PLANTED LIKE A CANDLE FOR A FEW SECONDS HEAD FIRST BEFORE CRUMBLING TO THE GROUND THAT MOVE WILL SURELY LEAVE A MATCH IN THE MORNING! HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A COUNTER LIKE THIS PERSEPHONE??
Persephone: Meh!
Rich Russillo: Lucas has an opportunity to end it right there! He goes to his feet, he sees Gates who hasn’t moved much since the Blueprint and he grabs him by the head forcing him up pulling him into the ring! JOHNSON WITH A COVER!!
ONNNNEEEE!!
TWWWOOOOO!!!
Persephone: And Shane Gates kicks out. If Rexy was in this match it would be over already! I MISS MY REXY!!!
James Peters: Can Lucas do more in order to maximize his chances to win tonight? Lucas is observing his opponent as he is slowly getting on his knees. Lucas moves into position behind Gates AND APPLIES THE COQUINA CLUTCH!!!! THE SUBMISSION MANOEUVER ON SHANE GATES FALLS TO HIS SIDE DOWN ON THE MAT WITH LUCAS HAVING A FIRM GRIP ON HIS HOLD! THE OFFICIAL WATCHES ON AS GATES IS FLAILING TRYING TO REACH THE ROPES AND LUCKY FOR HIM HE MANAGES TO PUT A BOOT IN! THIS JUST SAVED HIS MATCH!
Persephone: Oh for fuck sake! I thought we were about done with this!
James Peters: Another chance missed by Lucas a close call and Shane saved himself keeping this –
Persephone: Boring!
James Peters: – match alive for a while longer as Lucas looks around wondering what to do next in order to get the edge needed to secure victory! LUCAS GOES FOR THE CHICKEN WING NOT ALLOWING SHANE A CHANCE TO RECOVER THE SECOND THE OFFICIAL LETS HIM RESUME THE MATCH!!! BUT LOOK! SHANE IS GETTING TO HIS FEET! HE HAS JOHNSON ON HIS BACK PIGGYBACK RIDING THE PSYCHOPATH NOT LETTING GO OF HIM AND SHANE GOES FOR A BACK BODY DROP PUTTING ALL OF HIS WEIGHT INTO THE SWING IN HOPES FOR LUCAS TO LET GO OF THE HOLD! BUT LUCAS DOESN’T! HE DID FOR A SECOND BUT HE KEEPS HIS HANDS SOMEHOW MANAGES TO KEEP THE HOLD ON SHANE WHO SEEMS TO BE FADING! THE OFFICIAL RAISES HIS ARM ONCE AND IT FALLS DOWN!
ONNNNEEEE!!
James Peters: THAT’S ONE! THE OFFICIAL RAISES THE ARM AGAIN! IT PLOPS DOWN ONCE MORE!!
TWWWOOOOO!!!
James Peters: ONE MORE TO GO! THE OFFICIAL TESTS THE ARM! HE LIFTS IT! LUCAS CAN TASTE VICTORY AT THIS POINT!!
THREEEE-
Rich Russillo: HOW IS HE GOING THIS???
James Peters: SOMEHOW SOMEWAY SHANE IS KEEPING HIS SHOULDER UP!! LUCAS THOUGHT HE HAD THE MATCH WON BUT SHANE IS STILL ALIVE AND THROWS SOME DESPERATION HEAD BUTTS BACKWARDS TO LUCAS IN HOPES OF BE FREED AND IT WORKS!! LUCAS IS HOLDING ONTO HIS NOSE MAYBE SHANE BUSTED IT OPEN AND SHANE ROLLS OUT OF THE RING TO GET DISTANCE FROM HIS OPPONENT AT THIS CRITICAL POINT IN THE MATCH! Lucas sees he isn’t bleeding and so decides to go on the offense and he is going to the nearest turnbuckle to Shane what is he actually going? He won’t throw himself at… HE WILL!! HE IS GOING FOR IT! LUCAS IS AIRBORNE! HURRICAN-NAH!! WAIT FOR NO!! SHANE BLOCKS THE SPINNING MOTION! HE HAS LUCAS IN A POWERBOMB POSITION! LUCAS GETS PLANTED INTO THE APROOOOOOOOOOONNNNN!!! JESUS CHRIST THAT’S ONE OF THE HARDEST PARTS OF THE RING SAVE FOR THE POSTS AND RING STEPS!! MY GOD, SHANE MAY HAVE BROKEN LUCAS’ SPINE WITH THIS COUNTER!!
Rich Russillo: WHAT ACTION WE ARE WITNESSING HERE TONIGHT LIVE FROM MINUTE MAID PARK FOLKS! LUCAS IS ON HIS KNEES IN A WORLD OF PAIN AND SHANE MEASURES HIM UP BEFORE CHARGING INTO HIM AND TACKLES HIS BACK INTO THE APRON! HE DOES IT AGAIN! A THIRD TIME LUCAS GOES TO HIS KNEES HARD AS SHANE IS PROUD OF WHAT HE IS DOING! THE OFFICIAL HAS STARTED THE COUNT SINCE BOTH MEN ARE OUTSIDE OF THE RING BUT SHANE AS ALWAYS DOESN’T CARE! HE BACKS OFF LUCAS AND CHARGES BACK GOING FOR A BIG B-NO!!!! LUCAS WITH A BELLY TO BELLY SUPLEXXXXX!!! DOWN GOES SHANE!! AND LUCAS IS ON HIS FEET SCREAMING AS IF TRYING TO CHASE THE PAIN AWAY!
James Peters: He took quite a beating so far and showed he was able to give one too and here he goes climbing with some effort on the apron while Shane is getting to his feet, NO DAMN WAY!!! A MOONSAULT FROM THE SECOND ROPE TO THE OUTSIDE BY LUCAS TURNING INTO A SIDE RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP AGAINST THE BARRICAAAAAAAAAAAADE!!!! BOTH MEN ARE SEATED AGAINST THE THE RAIL LOOKING UPWARD WITH PAINED EXPRESSIONS ON THEIR FACES THEY ARE GOING HARD AT EACH OTHER AND THIS ISN’T EVEN A FREE PER VIEW!!
Rich Russillo: Who will get up first? The official is doing the count! Both opponents are starting to make their way to the ring, and both are getting in at the same time! Lucas and Shane rolling inside the ring ending up on their knees and facing each other! Lucas throws a punch to Shane! Gates returns the favor to Johnson! And again! Hammer fists to the button! By Gates! By Johnson! ONE! THAN THE OTHER THEY ARE THROWING DOWN FASTER AND FASTER THE CROWD IS ACTUALLY CHEERING ON AS BOTH MEN ARE ACTUALLY GETTING TO THEIR FEET AS THEY PUNCH THE CRAP OUT OF ONE ANOTHER!!
James Peters: AND LUCAS WITH A SUDDEN KNEE TO THE GUT OF SHANE FOLLOWED BY A QUICK IRISH WHIP INTO THE ROPES! UPPERCUT TO SHANE STOPPING HIM IN HIS TRACKS! FOLLOWED BY A GERMAN SUPLEX! THEN A SECOND! A THIRD!! SHANE LOOKS IN TROUBLE NOW AS LUCAS SEEMS TO BE GAINING THE ADVANTAGE! A DDT BY LUCAS FAST AND SUDDEN TAKE-NO! SHANE BLOCKS THE ATTEMPT! LUCAS GOES FOR IT AGAIN IT FAILS ONCE MORE! SHANE REVERSES THE MOVE WITH A SUPLEX FROM THE DDT POSITION AND TURNS IT INTO A BRIDGE PINFALL!!
ONNNNEEEE!!
TWWWOOOOO!!!
Rich Russillo: LUCAS KICKS OUT!! HE LOOKS SHOCKED HE ALMOST LOST THIS WAY! Shane tries to gather some steam and throws himself at Lucas once both men get up. SPINNING HEEL KICK BY SHANE! LUCAS GOES DOWN! LUCAS GETS UP AND SHANE PICKS HIM UP INTO A GORILLA PRESS! LUCAS IS OVER SHANE’S HEAD!! BUT HE WIGGLES WHICH MAKES SHANE’S HOLD TO LOOSEN! LUCAS GOES DOWN LANDING ON HIS FEET HE BACKS OFF TO THE ROPES SPRINGBOARDING OFF THEM HE GOES FOR THE LIGHTSWITCH!! THE CLAYM-NO!!! GATES DUCKS AND EVADES THE KICK BY SIDE STEPPING JUST IN A NICK OF TIME!! HE TURNS! GRABBING LUCAS BY THE THROAT!! HE IS CALLING THE FOR REC-
( Suddenly the lights go out inside the Park! )
James Peters: What the Hell??
Rich Russillo: Is that…
Persephone: :skip:
( Everyone seems confused all around as there is A SUDDEN FLASH OF LIGHTNING ON THE STAGE!! This seems to surprise some in the crowd we hear a gasp from them as the lights are back. )
James Peters: IS THAT??
Rich Russillo: LIZZIE THE DOLL!?!?!?
Persephone: Oh brother…
( Even Shane looks confused, he doesn’t seem sure of what he just saw, much like the announcing team or the thousands in attendance!! FLASH! Another strike of blinding light and the doll is gone! Shane wipes his eyes they are wide as owls’ as he stares at the stage. )
James Peters: LOOK AT LUCAS BEHIND SHANE!! HE IS CREEPING UP ON SHANE GATES!! SHANE HAS NO IDEA LUCAS IS BEHIND HIM!!
Rich Russillo: ROLL-UP!!!! SHANE LOOKS SHOCKED HAVING NOT NOTICED LUCAS AT ALL IS THIS HOW JOHNSON WINS THIS?????
ONNNNEEEE!
TWWWOOOOO!!
THREEEEEEEEEEE!!!
(DING! DING! DING!)
Bella Braxton: HERE IS YOUR WINNER…LUCAAAAAAAAAAS JOHNSOOOOOONNN!!!!!!
( Lucas gets off of Shane with a massive grin off his face as he gets his hand raised by the referee. ‘Ready To Die’ by The Notorious B.I.G. plays over the PA system of Minute Maid Park shortly after.)
James Peters: WHAT A MATCH BY BOTH MEN HERE TONIGHT!!
Persephone: I’m just glad this one’s over!
Rich Russillo: Are we going to ignore the way it ended? I saw Lizzie The Doll at the stage!! Tell me I’m not the only one who saw it!
James Peters: I’m not even sure if I saw it myself, but it was enough to cause Shane to be distracted and it gave Lucas the opening he needed to pick up the win! That has got to be one of the most unusual match endings I’ve seen in a while here on Voltage!
Persephone: That was weird as hell, but that was not what I was hoping for. If it’s not them murdering one another, I don’t want it.
(Lucas walks up the ramp, proud of his victory while Shane looks annoyed and very confused at what just happened. He almost can’t believe his eyes, and finally the camera fades elsewhere.)
(The camera cuts backstage to Sofia Clarke at a designated interview area.The look on her face tells you that she is apprehensive about this interview, but she has a job to do)
Sofia Clarke: Ladies, and Gentlemen my guest at this time, Miku Sakai!
(Miku comes into frame glaring at Sofia)
Miku Sakai: Are you FUCKING kidding me? My guest Miku Sakai.. Like you’re not happy to talk to me? Where is the FUCKING enthusiasm you stupid cow? You are LUCKY to get to talk to me, and you should act as if I’m the gift to your shitty little interview that I am. I’m sure you’re just loving what you see right now. I’m sure you loved a dumb cunt Ava costing me our match last week. I bet you’re SOPPING wet. You can’t get to me. You can’t make me feel lesser than you bitch. What you think you’re better than me? You know how I got here this week? A fucking limo. Did you come here in a limo? No? Because you’re fucking poor, and disgusting. Being poor is disgusting, and if I’m being honest with you, it embarrasses me that I am actually talking to someone with such little money. I pay out so much money to charity so that less people will be poor, and yet here you are.. Why don’t you go to one of those charities and get some money? I mean what am I even paying them for?… Um, excuse me? What? Why are you staring at me?
Sofia Clarke: Uh because you’re talking?
Miku Sakai: What the fuck? You little slut. You’re undressing me with your eyes… You really want to see me naked right now you whore. God we’re at work, what is wrong with you. If you want to see me naked so bad, just subscribe to my OnlyFans.. If you can afford it that is. And you know, you should subscribe to it, because right now, I’m not happy. Last week, Pain For Pride.. It’s all just been shitty.
Sofia Clarke: Would you care to talk about last week?
Miku Sakai: No, I actually don’t want to talk about last week at all. Jesus tap dancing Christ! Why do you continue to be a terrible person, and say only negative things to me? Why can’t you be a nice person, and tell me that I’m the greatest, cutest, most adorable person you’ve ever met? Fuck you. THIS PLACE IS NOTHING BUT HORSE SHIT, BULLSHIT, AND FUCKING SHIT. EVERYONE KNOWS I WASN’T IN THE RIGHT MINDSET TO WRESTLE LAST WEEK, CLEARLY I HAD TOO MUCH TO DRINK, AND THEY SHOULD’VE HONORED THE FACT I WAS NOT READY! AND LETS NOT EVEN FORGET THE FACT THAT PIECE OF SHIT WASTE OF CUM MS EXTREME, WHO’S NOT EVEN THAT EXTREME BY THE WAY, RUINED OUR MATCH LAST WEEK, EVEN WHILE I WAS IN A HORRIBLE MINDSET… Do you know what that is Stephanie???
Sofia Clarke: ….
Miku Sakai: DUMB CUNT?? STEPHANIE!!!
Sofia Clarke: Oh… Am I Stephanie?
Miku Sakai: God you’re so dumb, you don’t even know your own name.. IT WAS BULLYING! Ms. Extreme, is a bully. She is taking advantage of a situation, of me being sad as shit, and then piling on because she’s a terrible person… Just like you Steph. Those titles meant everything to me, and now they’re gone, and what am I supposed to do? Just go on living like everything is normal? Every day those titles are forgotten about more and more, because the people that hold them are so fucking forgettable. But I’ll tell you one thing, Ms. Extreme showed her true colors. Ms. Extreme showed that she is so desperate to gain fame off of us, because she can’t do it by being interesting. She’s a leech, trying to suck all the fame from us, and it’s pathetic. You can try to make a name off of us, but you’re still never going to be interesting. Camille, you’re the champion, right? Why don’t you act like it for once in your god damn pathetic life. You’re already not a believable champion in the first fucking place. The fact that you force swear words, and try to act so edgy because all your other sisters are so prissy.. It’s not in your character, and it’s clearly not you. It’s so sad too, that you needed to create your own personality in order to break out from being just another Ava. Always leeching, always being the worst. By the way, this title reign is already fucking shit, and she’s going to try and stay in the spotlight for as long as she can by forcing herself onto people that actually fucking matter and do you know why? Because it’s the Ava way. They are nothing but leeches to the world, that use everyone around them to stay relevant. This title couldn’t even make her relevant, that’s how you know she fucking sucks. But let’s run down her whole family. Cam.. Ugh, sucked off Jamie in order to stay relevant. I mean the only reason she has a spot on Showdown right now is because of him. Consuela tried to leech off her own sister in order to have a career in wrestling, and it sucked! She’s out of here! Ms Extreme.. Trying to steal everything from us.. And now, Candice cunt face
???: Now that’s enough!
Miku Sakai: Ugh I know that smell of cum on the breath from anywhere.. Hello Candice..
Candice Blair: You’re just mad because my sister beat you to get that opportunity for the Universal Women’s Championship, and now she’s going to beat your partner to defend it. You’re such a little brat. You just think the world should fall to your feet, but you know what? You actually kinda suck. Neither one of you are as good as you think you are, and you just try to tear everyone around you down, just so YOU can stay relevant and look like bigger stars than you are. Why don’t you stop trying to talk shit about my family, and instead get some help for your alcoholism. Even though I’m a big pop sensation now, I still am an activist, and though you’re the nastiest little creature on Earth, I don’t want to see you waste away.
Miku Sakai: No one cares about your shitty music for the thousandth time! Not even your whore sisters are going to listen to that crap! They’ll be too busy singing loud from the dick they’re riding to get to the top!
(Candice reaches back and slaps Miku. Miku turns her head and starts shaking vigorously before snapping)
(The sound of the announcers come into play as Miku attacks Candice.)
James Peters: Miku just double legged Candice down to the ground, and now she’s repeatedly punching her in the face! Oh my God those sounds coming from Miku! They’re almost animalistic! Miku has lost it! She brings Candice up, and throws her face first into the metal structure that is the interview area. Miku picks Candice back up again, and continues to throw Candice’s face right into the metal steel!
Miku Sakai: Can you sing with a broken jaw you dumb cunt??? Let’s hear it???
Rich Rusillo: Miku now lets Candice’s body fall to the ground, and as she’s trying to get back up, Miku swiftly kicks Candice right in the gut. Miku is clearly not in a good headspace right now, and Candice is getting the brunt of her frustrations. And it doesn’t seem like she’s done here, as Miku is dragging Candice to one of those metal containers that are used to store ring supplies, and camera equipment! She opens the metal container and places Candice’s face right where the lid opens!! Oh no this can’t be good! Mikus is slamming that metal lid up, and down on the face of Candice! More specifically the mouth!
Miku Sakai: LET’S HEAR IT??! LET’S HEAR YOUR SHITTY MUSIC!!
Persephone: THANK GOD! MAYBE WE DON’T HAVE TO HEAR HER SPEAK EVER AGAIN!! .. Wouldn’t be a bad idea if Miku joined her though…
James Peters: It still doesn’t seem like Miku is done.. Candice’s head is still in between the lid of the container, and Miku seems to be getting up high on some of the stacked containers.. What is she doing??? SHE JUMPS DOWN AND SQUISHES CANDICE HEAD BETWEEN THE CONTAINER! HER JAW MIGHT BE BROKEN!! CANDICE FLOPS DOWN ON THE FLOOR WRITHING IN PAIN! SPITTING OUT BLOOD, AS MIKU LAYS BESIDE HER TILTING HER HEAD SEEMINGLY PROUD OF WHAT SHE DID!! Security now is swooping in and carrying Miku away, and the medical team is tending to Candice!
(As Miku is being dragged away)
Miku Sakai: Fuck you.. Bitch…
Rich Russillo: What has gotten into Miku! I can’t believe the heinous act she just committed..
Persephone: What got into her? Have you met this dumb bitch before? She’s always been this psycho! But I mean.. She has some common sense here, now we might not have to be forced to hear that shitty album..
James Peters: You’re despicable, and so is Miku! We’re sorry about what you had to see folks.. We need to go to commercial now!
(Voltage fades away from the backstage area and to a commercial break.)
(Commercial for Andre Walker’s eye contacts. If you don’t want to change your entire race, settle for changing your eye color :drakelike:.)
(The camera cuts back to the Minute Maid Park as “Enemy Strike” by Yuki Hayashi hits and Myles confidently makes his way through the curtain and onto the stage to a THUNDEROUS reaction of boos which echo throughout the stadium. He stands on the stage with nothing that’s being thrown his way from those in attendance bothering him in the slightest, instead drawing a smirk to his face as he looks down at the Cash in the Vault briefcase in his right hand before he begins to make his way down to the ring.)
Bella Braxton: Ladies and Gentlemen, please welcome at this time… the 2021 CASH IN THE VAULT BRIEFCASE HOLDER!!!! MYYYYYLLEEEESSSSS!!!!!
Persephone: Oh god. Just when I thought things couldn’t get any worse – I’m now forced to listen to someone from New Eden drone on about something that isn’t my Sexy Rexy.
James Peters: Truthfully, it’s a little interesting to see why Mr. Cash in the Vault is out here alone. We know that the EAW World Champion, Drake King has a date set with Justin Windgate at Bloodsport and the National Elite Champion, Minerva will meet Chris Elite at the same event. There’s absolutely no doubt that New Eden is going to look to try to continue to ride that incredible wave of momentum that they’ve had since coming together. I’m sure that Myles has something or someone in his sights, and will be looking to make his intentions clear tonight.
Rich Russillo: And who do you believe that’s going to be?
James Peters: I have no idea, but I’m guessing that we may be about to find out.
(Myles makes his way up onto the apron and enters the ring. The boo’s continue to rain down to the point where they’re overpowering his theme which blasts through the speakers. He extends his hand, being given the microphone from Bella who exits the ring. Myles places his index finger on his lips as “Enemy Strike” fades out and he signals for those in attendance to quiet down, which obviously they don’t. Myles is happy to stand here as long as he needs to, placing his arms behind his back; happy to wait for it all to settle down.)
Persephone: They realise that the faster they shut up, the faster that he leaves. 🙄
(Those packed inside the Minute Maid Park finally quiet down as Myles takes a deep breath before beginning to speak.)
Myles: Don’t worry; there’s nothing that you can do that’s going to come close to the constant disrespect that we’ve become accustomed to here.
(The rumpus crowd in attendance roar again as Myles places his arms behind his back again, simply waiting once again.)
Myles: But, the truth is that I’m out here for more pressing matters than the constant disrespect guided towards New Eden by Captain Charisma, no matter how much we consistently prove the value of our vision and what we do for this brand. For this moment – I set my sights towards Bloodsport. The unknown. Drake and Minerva have the pleasure of stepping forward and continue to cement our truth. New Eden will never be stopped. But, there was something that was said last week that caught my attention. You all sat at home on the edge of your seats and listened to every single word that he said. You all hoped. You all prayed, and he gave every single one of you exactly what YOU wanted. He went against the words that he preached; those words about being dragged back into this business when he didn’t want to be. Almost having his ability to hold his own child taken away from him at Pain for Pride; he turned his back on his own family for this company. He turned his back on his own son for his own selfish desires. And, for what? A feeble attempt to do something that even Jamie O’Hara isn’t going to come close to achieving? The “Ace” that’s going to force himself to finally stand before a mountain that he’s never going to come close to conquering. The man that bought into the same gospel that you’ve all allowed yourselves to buy into. It’s pathetic. You said last week that if anybody has a problem with anything that you’ve said that they know where to find you, Jamie. Well, here I am. I’m waiting for the so-called Ascended Master to step forward and test the hand of fate.
(Without hesitation “Kashmir” by Led Zeppelin blasts through the speakers of the Minute Maid Park as the crowd absolutely ERUPTS. Jamie O’Hara slowly makes his way through the curtain back onto the brand that he both made his EAW Debut and made history as the longest reigning World Champion in company history for the first time since 2017. Jamie stands on the stage, soaking in everything before making his way down to the ring. The Ascended Master’s eyes never leave Myles who stands in the ring.)
Rich Russillo: Listen to that reaction! Jamie O’Hara making his homecoming to the brand where he took his first steps here in EAW. The brand where he made history as the New Breed Champion. The brand where he won the Cash in the Vault briefcase. The brand where he made history as the LONGEST REIGNING WORLD CHAMPION IN EAW HISTORY! Eleven incredible months as the man that stood at the top of this company unmatched as the true ACE of professional wrestling. Arguably the biggest acquisition from the draft!
James Peters: I’m not going to pretend that I wasn’t absolutely ecstatic when we saw that Jamie O’Hara was coming back to Voltage. There was that uncertainty that his match at Pain for Pride for the Answers World Championship against Kassidy Heart was going to be his last, and with the end of that match; almost having his shoulder destroyed. The possibility of never being able to hold Hathaway again. You couldn’t blame the man for walking away. But, here he is. :wow:
Persephone: Go back and rewatch when Sexy Rexy won the Grand Rampage and see who really is the Ascended Master.
(Jamie stands on the apron as he takes a moment to look out at the crowd before entering the ring. He walks straight past Myles who continues to stand in the middle of the ring. Jamie is handed a microphone and leans back into the corner as Myles grits his teeth, unimpressed with the man standing before him.)
Jamie O’Hara: This… is what has decided to knock at my door?
(Jamie looks Myles up and down before beginning to laugh.)
Jamie O’Hara: Drake King and Minerva have their trophies to defend, and that leaves you to try and stand before something that’s going to cut you down further than you’re going to believe possible. But, foolish things come from those who are guided by the foolish themselves. Those who believe that they hold all the power; too blinded to see that they’re simply living in a world ruled by the inevitable. I’m not going to take anything away from what the three of you have done. The Grand Rampage; the National Elite Championship, the EAW World Championship; that Cash in the Vault briefcase that you’re clutching onto. Those are all reasons to continue to believe that you’re untouchable. But, there’s one constant with each of those achievements, Myles. You hold those because I never wanted them. Drake King and Minerva stand with those championships resting around their waists; you hold that Cash in the Vault briefcase because I never wanted them. Do you really believe that with the combined efforts of you three that you would have been able to stop something that’s far greater than your collection? You feel unstoppable when you’re able to stand against those who are bound to crumble, but crumble when you’re forced to stand against those who don’t. Pain for Pride was meant to be the moment where Jake Smith shattered through that proverbial glass ceiling after beating Tyler Parker, and a week later was forced to understand that he’s simply an insignificant piece in a world ruled by someone far greater. And now you want to force yourself to walk down that same road? Don’t let me stop you from picking the hill that you’re willing to die on.
Myles: You don’t get it.
Jamie O’Hara: Oh, trust me. I do. I’ve seen this story play out a thousand times before, Myles. You three aren’t the first people to walk down the same road that you are now. But, where are all of them now? They’re all nothing. They’re all names that destroyed themselves as they tried to chase something that they were never going to be able to catch. It’s what makes all of them, including New Eden, the same thing. It’s what makes the three of you temporary. It’s what makes everything in this business temporary, except me. You thrive in situations where it feels like absolutely nothing can slow you down, and the moment that something does – everything bursts at the seams and before you know it – there’s nothing left except the remnants of something that tried their hardest to make the world believe couldn’t be stopped. They prove that there was no truth to the lies that they spewed. But, Drake King already knows that, doesn’t he? The truth is that if he didn’t; it would have been him standing here, wouldn’t it? Instead, here you stand. The man that’s forced to cut himself down in a war that he’s never going to survive.
Myles: I didn’t think that a man that’s as great as he’s perceived to be could be so blind. But, how could I expect anything less from a man that’s so selfish. You could have just walked away, Jamie. There was no shame in losing to Kassidy Heart at Pain for Pride in the fashion that you did. You said it last week; you were forced to swallow your pride and submit for the sake of your son. He was more important than your own pride. That constant need to re-enforce your status as the “Ace”. But, you standing here now shows how much truth that actually holds, doesn’t it? If he were the most important thing, Jamie – you wouldn’t be here. You would have walked away the moment that you had the chance; knowing that she did you a favour at Pain for Pride. She gave you an out. She gave you the chance to walk away forever and be the father that you tell yourself that you want to be. But, that’s the mentality of your entire family, isn’t it? It’s always about putting yourself first before those you tell yourselves that you love. Both you and Cameron almost killed each other to be the World Heavyweight Champion years ago. You almost lost the use of your arm and just this week – Cameron openly said that Pain for Pride was perfect, simply because she managed to beat someone that wasn’t close to being anything that he once was. Your safety; the father of her own child, didn’t matter. Pain for Pride was PERFECT because SHE got what SHE wanted. The two of you putting your own child to the side to chase your own selfish desires; dreams that you’re never going to be able to reach. But, do you know the worst part of it all, Jamie?
(Myles steps forward; the smile on the face of Jamie O’Hara is done as he steps forward and meets Myles face to face.)
Myles: I imagine that your son is going to grow up consumed by lust and greed just like his awful parents.
James Peters: JAMIE O’HARA WITH A HEADBUTT TO THE BRIDGE OF THE NOSE OF MYLES! MYLES STAGGERS BACK, BLOOD ALREADY POURING FROM HIS NOSE – AND JAMIE O’HARA SWEEPS OUT HIS LEGS! JAMIE O’HARA FIRING AWAY WITH UNPROTECTED, CLOSED FISTED STRIKES TO THE HEAD! MYLES JUST CROSSED A MAJOR LINE AND HE MAY BE ABOUT TO PAY THE DEAREST PRICE FOR IT! JAMIE GETS OFF OF MYLES AND RIPS OFF HIS LEATHER JACKET AND PULLS DOWN THAT KNEEPAD! MYLES NOSE IS A MESS; MYLES IS A MESS! A DAZED AND HURT MYLES SLOWLY MAKES HIS WAY BACK TO A KNEE – IN EXCELSIS! JAMIE O’HARA WITH THAT RUNNING BICYCLE KNEE STRIKE TO THE BACK OF MYLES HEAD!
(Jamie O’Hara stands over the motionless Myles. There’s no emotion on the face of the Ace as those inside the Minute Maid Park chant his name. Jamie picks up his leather jacket, putting it back on and beginning to make his leave, but stops at the ropes.)
Rich Russillo: OH MY GOD! JAMIE ISN’T FINISHED! JAMIE FORCING THE UNMOVING MYLES BACK TO HIS KNEES AND LOCKS BOTH ARMS! STARDUST BREAKER! DOUBLE WRIST CLUTCHED KNEE STRIKE TO THE HEAD OF MYLES!!!!!
(“Kashmir” by Led Zeppelin hits as Jamie O’Hara finally makes his leave from the ring. He doesn’t look back at the unconscious Myles who remains in the ring.)
James Peters: You can’t say that Myles didn’t deserve that! He knew the buttons that he was going to press by mentioning his son and paid the price in full for it!
Rich Russillo: Two brutal knee strikes! One to the back of the head; one straight to the face! There’s one thing that I’m positive of; this certainly isn’t going to be the end of this and that New Eden isn’t going to take kindly to Jamie O’Hara’s actions! Jamie said last week that this was his world and the rest of us are simply living in it, and if there’s anybody that’s able to prove that. It’s him.
(Jamie stands on the stage, finally turning back towards Myles who still hasn’t moved an inch. Jamie points his arms down back towards Myles and shoots before the camera cuts elsewhere.)

(The camera fades back to ringside, and Bella Braxton stands in the center of the ring.)
Bella Braxton: THE FOLLOWING CONTEST IS SCHEDULED FOR… ONE FALL!
Crowd: ONE FALL!
(‘The Outsiders’ by Eric Church starts playing throughout the arena as the crowd emerges with a mixed reaction, as Donovan Duke comes out with a serious, focused expression on his face. He starts making his way to the ring.)
Bella Braxton: Introducing first! From Stillwater, OK.. weighing in at 212 pounds… HE IS THE CURRENT 24/7 CONTRACT HOLDER, ‘THE OKLAHOMA GENTLEMAN ‘, DONOVAN DUKE!!
James Peters: Here comes Mr. 24/7, Donovan Duke.
Rich Russillo: The man who at Pain For Pride managed to win The 24/7 Battle Royal, and now he is out here to bounce back after a tag team loss alongside with Holly Arrow against Jake Smith and Mary S. Atlas last week.
James Peters: Exactly. And that’s what he would be able to do if he won this match tonight, Rich.
(‘Diva’ by Beyoncé replaces ‘The Outsiders’ by Eric Church to another mixed reaction by the crowd as Donovan Duke is now in the ring. Candice Blair walks out, almost in no condition to compete following the brutal attack by Miku Sakai. She’s slow to make it down the ramp, but she continues to walk down to the ring nonetheless, not giving up on her match against Donovan Duke.)
Bella Braxton: And his opponent… from San Francisco, California… weighing in at 126 pounds… ‘The Hot Commodity’, CANDICE BLAIR!
James Peters: Here comes the person who was attacked by Miku Sakai earlier tonight, Candice Blair.
Rich Russillo: That attack by Miku Sakai earlier tonight definitely decreased Candice’s chances in beating Donovan Duke out here tonight. However, seeing her face expression, she will still give Donovan a tough fight whatever was the result.
James Peters: Candice is definitely not allowing any result to happen without giving out a fight, Rich. And that’s what we are about to see right now, as both competitors are in the ring.
(DING! DING! DING!)
James Peters: Well, this match is now underway. Candice Blair who was attacked by Miku Sakai earlier takes on Mister 24/7, Donovan Duke, who wastes no time running at Candice with a hard Clothesline, as Candice Blair falls down on the mat.
Rich Russillo: Donovan Duke does not seem to be happy after the tag team loss he suffered with Holly Arrow against Jake Smith and Mary S. Atlas, and that’s quite clear as he gets on the top of Candice Blair, AND STARTS NAILING HER WITH STRAIGHT PUNCHES RIGHT TO THE SEEMINGLY BROKEN JAW OF HER!
James Peters: DONOVAN IS NOT LOOKING TO STOP THIS AS HE KEEPS THE ATTACK GOING! A PUNCH AFTER THE OTHER AND IT’S ALL CONNECTING WITH THE JAW OF CANDICE BLAIR THAT MIGHT BE ACTUALLY BROKEN! The referee tries to back Donovan off, which he fails in. He starts his count!
Referee: GET OFF HER DONOVAN! ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FI-
Rich Russillo: Donovan Duke FINALLY gets off the body of Candice Blair. The Decimator does not waste a single second, picking the body of Candice Blair back up to the feet. He goes behind her, applying a waist lock, THEN IMMEDIATELY LIFTS HER UP, NAILING HER WITH A GERMAN SUPLEX! THE GERMAN SUPLEX CONNECTS, HOWEVER, DONOVAN DUKE DOESN’T SEEM TO BE SATISFIED WITH THIS, FLIPPING BACKWARDS, WHILE STILL APPLYING THE WAIST LOCK IN, LIFTING CANDICE’S BODY UP IN THE AIR ONCE AGAIN, AND NAILS HER WITH ANOTHER GERMAN SUPLEX! ANOTHER GERMAN SUPLEX CONNECTS TO CANDICE BLAIR! CANDICE SEEMS HELPLESS AT THE MOMENT, WHILE DONOVAN DOESN’T SEEM TO GIVE A SHIT!
James Peters: HE STILL HAS THE WAIST LOCK APPLIED IN! IS HE REALLY GOING TO DO THIS **AGAIN**? HE FLIPS BACKWARDS, LIFTING HER BODY UP ONCE AGAIN!! AND WITH A THIRD GERMAN SUPLEX!!! THE THIRD GERMAN SUPLEX CONNECTS, SLAMMING THE BACK OF THE HEAD OF CANDICE BLAIR ON THE MAT FOR THE THIRD DAMN TIME! DONOVAN DUKE WITH THREE GERMAN SUPLEXES IN A ROW!! HE GRABS CANDICE BLAIR, AND THEN HOOKS THE LEG! THE COVER ON CANDICE BLAIR!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!! TWOOOOOOOO-
James Peters: Candice gets the shoulder up! Despite how she was attacked earlier tonight, and how Donovan Duke is seemingly taking the advantage, she is still proving that taking her out under any situation will never be that easy! However, Donovan Duke gets back up to his feet, picking the body of Candice Blair back up as well, AND WITH THE SPINEBUSTER! THE SPINEBUSTER CONNECTS!! DONOVAN DUKE FLIPS FORWARDS, HOOKING BOTH LEGS, WITH ANOTHER COVER!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! TWWWWOOOOOOOOOO-
Rich Russillo: BUT, CANDICE BLAIR WITH ANOTHER KICK OUT! Donovan Duke punches the mat looking a bit angry, however, he gets off Candice Blair, then gets up fast, picking Candice back up as well. He lifts up her body and nails her with the Dragon Suplex! The Dragon Suplex slams Candice Blair’s body on the mat! She gets up to her knees obviously hurt from the impact, allowing Donovan to take the advantage, AS HE NAILS HER WITH THE SNAP DDT! THE SNAP DDT SLAMS CANDICE BLAIR’S HEAD ON THE MAT! DONOVAN DOES NOT SEEM TO WASTE ANY TIME AS HE COVERS CANDICE BLAIR! ANOTHER PIN!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! TWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
James Peters: CANDICE BLAIR STAYS ALIVE, GETTING HER SHOULDER UP ONCE AGAIN! CANDICE BLAIR IS DESPITE EVERYTHING, STILL REFUSING THE OPTION OF A LOSS!
Rich Russillo: BUT, DONOVAN DUKE IS STILL TRYING TO MAKE IT THE ONLY AVAILABLE OPTION, DROPPING HIS KNEE ON HER STOMACH!! THE KNEE DROP ON THE STOMACH OF CANDICE BLAIR!!! I BET THAT THIS DEFINITELY HURTS!
James Peters: Yes, it surely does. But, the goal of Mister 24/7, Donovan Duke, is to do everything that hurts. That’s the only way you can take out someone like Candice Blair. Now, Donovan picks Candice back up once again, AND WITH THE SWINGING NECKBREAKE-
Rich Russillo: BUT, CANDICE BLAIR FINALLY SAVES HERSELF, AS SHE PUSHES OFF THE BODY OF DONOVAN DUKE AWAY FROM HERSELF, NAILING HIM WITH A DROPKICK RIGHT ON HIS BACK! THE DROPKICK CONNECTS SENDING DONOVAN DUKE OUT OF THE RING THROUGH THE SECOND ROPE! HIS ARM HITS THE BARRICADE!! CANDICE BLAIR DROPS TO KNEE, TRYING TO CATCH HER BREATH, WHILE DONOVAN DUKE IS DOWN HOLDING HIS ARM!
James Peters: That was not enough to keep Donovan Duke downed for long, though. He manages to get up with the help of holding the barricade, BUT ON THE OTHER HAND, CANDICE BLAIR INSIDE THE RING TAKES THE ADVANTAGE AS SHE REBOUNDS RUNNING OFF THE ROPES, AND WITH THE SUICIDE DIVE TO DONOVAN!! THE SUICIDE DIVE SENDS DONOVAN DUKE FLYING INTO THE BARRICADE!! DONOVAN DUKE HITS THE BARRICADE HARD, WHILE CANDICE BLAIR IS DOWN LEANING ON THE RING POST.
Rich Russillo: Both competitors are out of the ring, forcing the referee to start his ten-count.
Referee: ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE!
Persephone: She somehow made it back to the ring after the fifth count, but I hope that the other guy isn’t able to get back in so this match would end already.
Referee: SIX! SEVEN!
James Peters: Well, it looks like he will be able to, because Donovan finally moves a muscle as he gets on the apron. He rolls back inside the rin-
Rich Russillo: BUT, CANDICE BLAIR WITH A DROPKICK OFF THE ROPES!! THE DROPKICK SENDS DONOVAN DUKE FLYING INTO THE BARRICADE FROM THE APRON!!!
Referee: EIGHT! NINE!
James Peters: AND CANDICE REBOUNDS, RUNNING OFF THE ROPES ONCE AGAIN, AND NAILS DONOVAN DUKE WITH ANOTHER SUICIDE DIVE!! ANOTHER SUICIDE DIVE CONNECTS MAKING DONOVAN HIT THE BARRICADE ONCE AGAIN! THE SUICIDE DIVE DIDN’T JUST NAIL DONOVAN DUKE, BUT BROKE THE COUNT AS WELL! BOTH CANDICE BLAIR AND DONOVAN DUKE ARE DOWN, AND THE REF RESTARTS THE COUNT!
Referee: ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE!
Rich Russillo: Candice Blair starts slowly trying to get back up to her feet using the barricade, which she does. And now she starts trying to get back in the ring before the match is forced to end in a double count-out!
Referee: SIX! SEVEN!
James Peters: And Candice Blair finally makes it back to the ring! However, Donovan Duke still cannot catch his breath as he’s still downed out of the ring. But, he starts using the barricade to get up, which he does.
Referee: EIGHT! NINE! TE-
Rich Russillo: AND DONOVAN DUKE ROLLS BACK INSIDE THE RING IN THE LAST MOMENT, SAVING THIS MATCH FROM ENDING LIKE THIS!!!
Persephone: FUCK!
James Peters: AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THERE’S CANDICE WITH THE SHOOT KICK TO DONOVAN DUKE!! THE SHOOT KICK HITS THE CHEST OF DONOVAN DUKE!!! DONOVAN DUKE FALLS DOWN ON THE MAT!!
Rich Russillo: However, Candice Blair runs to the ropes, as Donovan Duke gets up hurt, BUT CANDICE TAKES THE ADVANTAGE AND WITH THE SPRINGBOARD ARM DRAG! THE SPRINGBOARD ARM DRAG FLIPPING DONOVAN DUKE AS HE LANDS RIGHT ON HIS BACK! CANDICE BLAIR HOOKS THE LEG, FOR THE PIN!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! TWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-
James Peters: BUT, DONOVAN DUKE STAYS ALIVE, GETTING HIS SHOULDER UP! DONOVAN DUKE KICKS OUT, KEEPING THIS MATCH GOING! Candice Blair is quite clearly tired and disappointed, while Donovan Duke is just down breathing hard! What an effort by Candice! Despite the attack, she’s still giving everything she can out here!
Rich Russillo: Yes, she is! Candice Blair picks the body of Donovan Duke back up, AND NAILS HIS JAW WITH A BIG RIGHT HAND! THE PUNCH TO THE JAW OF DONOVAN DUKE CONNECTS, BUT SHE HITS ANOTHER ONE! DONOVAN DUKE STARTS FIGHTING BACK, WITH A PUNCH OF HIS OWN TO THE JAW OF CANDICE BLAIR! THIS SHOULDN’T BE GOOD FOR CANDICE BLAIR, ESPECIALLY KNOWING HOW SHE WAS ATTACKED BY MIKU SAKAI AND SEEMINGLY GOT HER JAW BROKEN! AND DONOVAN START TRADING PUNCHES! CANDICE! DONOVAN! CANDICE! DONOVAN! CANDICE! DONOVAN! CANDICE! DONOVAN! CANDICE! DONOVA-
James Peters: BUT, CANDICE BLAIR MANAGES TO DUCK DONOVAN’S PUNCH! DONOVAN MISSES DUE TO CANDICE BLAIR BEING ABLE TO DODGE IN THE LAST MOMENT! CANDICE BLAIR TAKES THE ADVANTAGE, AS SHE REBOUNDS RUNNING OFF THE ROPES, AND DONOVAN DUKE TURNS TO ONLY GET NAILED BY THE SLINGBLADE! THE SLINGBLADE BY CANDICE BLAIR CONNECTS! DONOVAN DUKE IS DOWN! CANDICE BLAIR HOOKS THE LEG! ANOTHER COVER ON DONOVAN!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! TWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-
Rich Russillo: AND DONOVAN DUKE GETS HIS SHOULDER UP! DONOVAN KICKS OUT ONCE AGAIN! MISTER 24/7 STAYS ALIVE! HE KEEPS THE MATCH GOING! Candice Blair does not waste any time despite how she cannot believe it! She picks Donovan Duke back up to his feet, as she lifts him up for the Suplex, but she drops him again! Looks like she’s not in her best after all! Candice is not able to hit it, ALLOWING DONOVAN DUKE TO TAKE THE ADVANTAGE, AS HE NAILS HIM WITH A NORTHERN LIGHTS SUPLEX OF HIS OWN! THE NORTHERN LIGHTS SUPLEX SLAMS THE BODY OF CANDICE RIGHT ON THE MAT! DONOVAN DUKE KEEPS HER IN THE SAME POSITION, AS A PIN! THE COVER BY DONOVAN DUKE!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! TWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-
James Peters: CANDICE BLAIR KICKS OUT ONCE AGAIN! DESPITE NOT BEING IN HER HUNDRED PERCENT, CANDICE BLAIR IS STILL NOT ALLOWING DONOVAN DUKE TO TAKE HER OUT! Donovan Duke is down, while Donovan Duke looks frustrated as he doesn’t know what to do to end this match and knock Candice Blair the hell out, despite how he has the advantage of the attack Candice got before the match!
Rich Russillo: However, Donovan Duke is still trying everything out, as he picks Candice Blair back up to her feet, and with the kick to Candice Blair’s gut that connects! Donovan then lifts her up high in the air, AND NAILS HER WITH THE POWERBOMB! THE POWERBOMB SLAMS THE HELL OUT OF CANDICE’S BACK ON THE MAT! CANDICE BLAIR IS DOWN, WHILE DONOVAN DUKE STARES DOWN AT HER WITH A QUITE ANGRY EXPRESSION ON HIS FACE!
James Peters: Donovan Duke starts thinking, as now we can see a huge smirk on his face. It looks like Donovan Duke has something in mind, as he rolls out into the apron, then starts climbing the top rope, which he riches. What is this man thinking of? Donovan Duke is on the top rope. Candice Blair is down. Donovan starts balancing himself, as he then turns back while keeping his balance. HE DIVES FLIPPING BACKWARDS AS HE NAILS CANDICE BLAIR WITH A MONOSAULT! THE MONOSAULT TO CANDICE BLAIR WHO DOESN’T SEEM TO BE ABLE TO DO ANYTHING AT THE MOMENT! DONOVAN DUKE HOOKS THE LEG, FOR THE COVER! THIS HAS TO BE IT!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! TWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! THREEE-
Rich Russillo: AND DESPITE EVERYTHING, CANDICE BLAIR STAYS ALIVE!!! CANDICE BLAIR GETS THE SHOULDER UP!! CANDICE BLAIR JUST KICKED OUT!! DONOVAN DUKE LOOKS DEFINITELY MAD, SHOCKED AND ANGRY! DONOVAN CANNOT BELIEVE IT! HOW IS CANDICE STILL DOING THIS!!!???
Persephone: JUST MAKE SURE HER FUCKING JAW IS BROKEN THEN BEAT HER ALREADY, DAMN!
James Peters: Well, that’s seemingly what he is willing to do right now. Donovan Duke grabs the face of Candice Blair, thinking for a while, AND HE THEN STARTS TO ELBOW THE FUCK OUT OF CANDICE BLAIR’S JAW!! DONOVAN DUKE WITH THE THE ELBOWS STRAIGHT INTO THE SEEMINGLY BROKEN JAW OF CANDICE BLAIR!! He then stops, still having the angry expression on his face, as he grabs Candice Blair, then drags her into the corner. Donovan puts the face of Candice Blair on the bottom turnbuckle, then backs away, standing in the opposite corner. Donovan is charging for something big it seems! HE RUNS AT CANDICE BLAIR WITH A RUNNING KNEE RIGHT TO THE JAW INTO THE TURNBUCKLE!!! THE RUNNING KNEE TO THE JAW OF CANDICE BLAIR INTO THE TURNBUCKLES’ IMPACT MAKES A HUGE SOUND THROUGH THE ARENA!!!! NOW I’M MORE THAN SURE THAT IF CANDICE BLAIR’S JAW WAS NOT BROKEN AFTER MIKU SAKAI’S ATTACK, THEN IT’S DEFINITELY BROKEN NOW!!!! WHAT A MOVE BY DONOVAN!!!
Rich Russillo: Holy shit!! Literally, what a move by Donovan! However, Donovan grabs Candice, then drags her into the middle of the ring. He hooks the leg, for the pin! This SURELY has to be it!!!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!! TWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! THREEEEEEEEEE-
James Peters: WHAT THE HELL!!!? CANDICE BLAIR SOME FREAKIN’ HOW WITH ANOTHER KICK OUT!!!! CANDICE BLAIR JUST KEPT THIS MATCH GOING!!! SHE JUST GOT HER SHOULDER UP!!!! DONOVAN DUKE JUST AS PERSEPHONE WANTED, MADE SURE CANDICE’S JAW IS BROKEN, BUT IT STILL WAS NOT ENOUGH TO GET THE WIN SOMEHOW!!
Persephone: Well, that’s not my fault. He just better end this shit soon ’cause I’m bored. :ufdup:
Rich Russillo: Well, that’s what he is trying to do, indeed. Donovan backs off to the corner, starting to charge. He waits for Candice to get up. He starts taunting as well, as the crowd gives a mixed reaction. Candice Blair starts getting using the ropes despite how hurt she is, BUT DONOVAN DUKE WASTES NO TIME AS HE RUNS AT HER THEN NAILS HER WITH THE RUNNING KNEE LIFT!! THE RUNNING KNEE LEFT CONNECTS!!!!! CANDICE BLAIR IS DOWN!!! DONOVAN DUKE HOOKS THE LEG, WITH ANOTHER COVER!!!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! TWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-
James Peters: :comeagain: DID CANDICE BLAIR JUST KICK OUT *AGAIN*!!!!!?? HOW THE HELL IS SHE STILL IN THIS!? HOW THE HELL COULD SHE GET THE SHOULDER UP ONCE AGAIN!? HOW THE HELL COULD SHE STAY ALIVE!? HOW THE HELL COULD SHE STILL KEEP THE MATCH GOING!? HOW THE HELL IS SHE STILL WRESTLING DESPITE THE BRUTAL ATTACK BY MIKU SAKAI EARLIER TONIGHT AND DONOVAN DUKE TAKING THE ADVANTAGE!? DONOVAN DUKE CANNOT BELIEVE IT!!!!!
Rich Russillo: DONOVAN DUKE HITS THE MAT DEFINITELY FRUSTRATED, AS HE STILL DOESN’T KNOW WHAT TO DO KNOCK CANDICE BLAIR THE FUCK OUT!!! HE GETS OFF HER BODY, GRABBING HER ANKLE, THEN APPLIES AN ANKLE LOCK!!! THE ANKLE LOCK LOCKED IN!!! THIS HAS TO BE IT!!!! CANDICE BLAIR IS SCREAMING AGONY!!!! IS SHE GONNA TAP OUT!!!?
James Peters: IT DOES NOT SEEM SO! CANDICE BLAIR STILL TRIES EVERYTHING OUT TO STAY IN!! CANDICE BLAIR USES EVERYTHING SHE CAN TO CRAWL, AS SHE FINALLY GRABS THE ROP-
Rich Russillo: BUT, DONOVAN DUKE PULLS HER BACK IN, APPLYING IT EVEN MORE HARDER!! DONOVAN DUKE JUST MADE IT EVEN MORE DIFFICULT OR EVEN IMPOSSIBLE FOR CANDICE BLAIR TO BREAK THIS SUBMISSION!!! THE ANKLE LOCK IS STILL APPLIED IN!! IT’S STILL LOCKED IN!!
James Peters: IT SEEMS LIKE CANDICE BLAIR IS STILL NOT ALLOWING HERSELF TO COME UP SHORT, NOR IS SHE ALLOWING HERSELF TO GIVE UP, NOR IS SHE WILLING TO TAP OUT!!! CANDICE BLAIR USES LITERALLY ALL OF HER STRENGTH AND POWER, GRABBING THE BOTTOM ROPE!!! CANDICE BLAIR FINALLY DID IT!! DONOVAN DUKE IS NOW FORCED TO LET THE ANKLE LOCK GO OF CANDICE BLAIR!!!!
Referee: LET IT GO DONOVAN! ONE! TWO! THREE!
Rich Russillo: Donovan Duke lets go of the ankle of Candice Blair, but instead applies a waist lock in and NAILS HER WITH A GERMAN SUPLEX!!! THE GERMAN SUPLEX DROPS CANDICE BLAIR’S BACK OF THE HEAD ON THE MAT!!! INTO A COVER!!!!
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! TWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-
James Peters: CANDICE BLAIR JUST FUCKING KICKED OUT AGAIN!!!! CANDICE JUST KICKED OUT AGAIN!!! HOW THE HELL!!! THIS IS DEFINITELY UNBELIEVABLE!!! DESPITE EVERYTHING CANDICE BLAIR IS STILL NOT GIVING UP!!! DONOVAN DUKE SHOUTS IN ANGER!! HOW IN THE HELL CAN YOU KEEP SOMEONE LIKE CANDICE BLAIR AWAY!!!?
Rich Russillo: But Donovan Duke is actually still trying to do that! He is still trying to keep Candice Blair away, as he picks her back up to her feet-
James Peters: BUT, CANDICE BLAIR ALL OF A SUDDEN WITH THE ROUNDHOUSE KICK!!! THE ROUNDHOUSE KICK SENDS DONOVAN DUKE REBOUNDING AS HE GOES OFF THE ROPES!! WHAT A MOVE BY CANDICE BLAIR!!!
Rich Russillo: And Candice Blair takes the advantage, rebounding as she runs off the opposite ropes, AND NAILS HIS FACE WITH THE ‘BICYCLE KNEE STRIKE’!!! THE ‘BICYCLE KNEE STRIKE’ CONNECTS AS DONOVAN DUKE FALLS DOWN ON THE MAT!! WHAT A COMEBACK BY CANDICE!!
James Peters: AND SHE DOES NOT LOOK TO GO FOR A PIN AT THIS POINT AS SHE GETS ON THE APRON ROLLING OUT OF THE RING, THEN STARTS CLIMBING THE TOP ROPE, WHICH SHE REACHES. SHE WAITS FOR DONOVAN TO GET BACK UP TO HIS FEET WHICH HE FINALLY DOES, BUT WASTES NO TIME NAILING HIM WITH THE DRIVING METEORA!!! THE DRIVING METEORA CONNECTS, SLAMMING DONOVAN DUKE’S HEAD RIGHT ON THE MAT WITH BOTH OF CANDICE BLAIR’S KNEES ON IT!! CANDICE BLAIR HOOKS BOTH LEGS, FOR THE COVER!! WILL DONOVAN DUKE STILL BE ABLE TO KICK OUT!?
Referee: ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! TWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! THREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-
Rich Russillo: AND MISTER 24/7 KICKS OUT AGAIN! DONOVAN DUKE WITH ANOTHER KICK OUT!!! CANDICE BLAIR CANNOT BELIEVE THAT THIS HAPPENED AT ALL, BUT IT DID HAPPEN! DONOVAN JUST STAYED ALIVE, AND KEPT THE MATCH GOING!!! HOW ARE BOTH OF THEM STILL DOING THIS!? THIS AND WITHOUT A DOUBT IS A GREAT EFFORT FROM BOTH COMPETITORS!!! CANDICE BLAIR LOOKS DEFINITELY DISAPPOINTED AND CLEARLY TIRED!!
James Peters: As Candice Blair still tries to leave victorious despite how she might be actually injured, she gets up using the ropes, finally making it back to her feet. She picks Donovan Duke back up to his feet as well, she nails him with a kick to the gut, grabbing him in a Powerbomb position! We know what’s coming… AND CANDICE BLAIR WITH THE ‘CANDY DESTROYER’!!!!!!!! THE CANADIAN DESTROYER CONNECTS!!!! DONOVAN DUKE IS DOWN!!! DONOVAN DUKE IS HELPLESS!!! THIS HAS TO BE CANDICE’S CHANCE!!!! SHE HOOKS THE LEGS, FOR THE COVER!!! THAT’S DEFINITELY IT!!!

DONOVAN DUKE DID NOT JUST SHOCK CANDICE WHOSE EYES ARE LITERALLY OPENED WIDE RIGHT NOW IN A HUGE SHOCK, BUT ALSO THE WHOLE ARENA!!! DONOVAN DUKE JUST SURVIVED DESPITE WHAT HAPPENED!!!
James Peters: Candice Blair who is definitely shocked right now sitting on the mat with her eyes opened wide gets back up to her feet, picking Donovan back up as well. She kicks his gut again which connects going for ANOTHER ‘Candy Destroyer’ to end this match and leave Voltage with the win-
Rich Russillo: BUT DONOVAN DUKE OUT OF NOWHERE WITH A BRUTAL PUNCH TO THE RIBS!! CANDICE BLAIR BACKS AWAY FROM DONOVAN, HOLDING HER RIBS IN A CLEARLY HORRIBLE PAIN!!! DONOVAN CATCHES HIS BREATH FOR A MOMENT, TAKING THE ADVANTAGE. HE GRABS CANDICE BLAIR, AND NAILS HER WITH THE ‘DUKE OF HAZARD’!!!! THE FIREMAN’S CARRY BACK-TO-BELLY PILEDRIVER CONNECTS!!!

Referee: ONNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! TWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! THHHRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(DING! DING! DING!)
Bella Braxton: HERE IS YOUR WINNER… MISTER 24/7, DONOVAN DUKE!!!
(‘The Outsiders’ by Eric Church hits, as Donovan Duke gets off the body of Candice Blair. He uses the second rope to get up as the referee grabs his hand, holding it up, and acknowledging him as the winner.)
James Peters: What a match. What a win for Donovan Duke. What a performance by Candice Blair.
Rich Russillo: Despite how Candice Blair had a seemingly broken jaw, and that’s what obviously gave Donovan Duke the advantage and made the win a lot easier, Candice Blair still did everything out here and made it the opposite of easy for Donovan to pick up the win. Which maybe was not enough, but she still got all of my respect.
Persephone: at least this match ended already.
James Peters: And now you can see Donovan Duke celebrating his win, as he poses. Congratulations to Donavan Duke.
(Donovan Duke looks at Candice Blair, who was already hurt coming into this match, before continuing to celebrate his victory, knowing he still had to work for that one. From there, Voltage fades away from ringside.)
( Voltage fades backstage where Sofia Clarke is standing by. The pretty reporter has a smile on her face as she looks directly into the camera. )
Sofia Clarke: Ladies and gentlemen, it’s been another amazing night on Voltage. In addition to the action we’ve seen, two more matches have been added to the Bloodsport card. Minerva will be defending her National Elite Championship against the Hall of Famer, Chris Elite, while her stablemate, the EAW World Champion, Drake King, takes on Justin Windgate with the championship on the line! Thanks to the draft, Voltage is stacked with new faces and a ton of talent, and joining me right now is the man who was victorious in his Season 15 debut last weekend. Please welcome… Jake Smith!
( The camera shot widens to show Jake standing next to Sofia Clarke. He is standing up straight so he looks as tall as possible, and he has that trademark arrogant grin of his on his face. Sofia turns to face Jake and begins to interview him. )
Sofia Clarke: Congratulations on your victory last week, Jake, although there seems to be a bit of controversy around it. How do you respond to the critics who are saying that you got lucky against Donovan Duke?
( An annoyed little laugh escapes Jake and he shakes his head. )
Jake Smith: Why should I respond? Everyone has an opinion and quite frankly, those opinions don’t matter. I did what I said I was going to do last week and that was beat Donovan Duke and Holly Arrow. It’s not my fault that Donovan has the attention span of a squirrel and took his eyes off me inside the ring. That’s exactly why he isn’t fit to be a champion anytime soon and it wouldn’t shock me to see him pull a Kelton and lose that 24/7 contract before he can even cash in. I simply outsmarted Donovan and he needs to accept that and move on. Our paths may or may not cross again, who knows? I know I have bigger and better things to do than worry myself with someone like that.
Sofia Clarke: That’s fair enough. It seems like Donovan has enough people lining up to face him at the moment and you have Chris Elite on the immediate horizon. How do you like your chances going into that match?
Jake Smith: :mjlol: What kind of question is that? I like my chances a lot, obviously, because I’m clearly going to win the match. I find it kind of funny that Chris Elite got himself a National Elite Championship shot, and when I beat him tonight, where does that leave me? Beating the number one contender should put me at the front of the line, right? That should be all the evidence Captain Charisma needs to change the match and let me face Minerva instead. Honestly, I’m not even sure why I’m not in a championship picture to begin with because I just beat Tyler Parker at Pain for Pride. All of last season, I remained steady and consistent, and defeated all the legends that were placed in front of me. Chris Elite will be no different, and while Minerva certainly isn’t a legend, I’m happy to take that National Elite Championship from her and maybe, just maybe, put a stop to some of this NoOnE bUt NeW eDeN bullshit. It’s starting to get boring, and that’s saying a lot because Drake, Myles, and Minerva were never really interesting in the first place.
Sofia Clarke: Defeating Chris Elite is a tall task for anyone, even you… no pun intended :mjlol:
Jake Smith: 😒
Sofia Clarke: And now that his interest has been piqued in pursuing a Grand Slam once again, he will be more determined than ever to get a victory over you tonight.
Jake Smith: And? So what? When have I ever cared about the wants and needs of other people who aren’t Jake Smith? Chris Elite can do whatever he feels is necessary in order to get some momentum going into Bloodsport, but he’s not going to do it at my expense. This is the Jake Smith Show and Season 15 is going to be the season that I finally rise to the top and cement my place as the real K1NG of this company. Everyone is going to fucking kneel because I said so and there’s not a damn thing anyone can do about it. Got it?
( All Sofia can do is nod her head. Jake’s words are very firm, and it’s obvious that he truly believes in what he is saying. He knows that he has so much talent and is capable of doing more, and it’s time to show the world that he can make good on all his promises. )
Sofia Clarke: Thank you for joining me, Jake. Good luck tonight.
Jake Smith: The pleasure was all yours, sweetheart.
( Jake arrogantly grins and leaves Sofia, who is seen rolling her eyes to the back of her head. As he is rounding the corner, someone brushes against his shoulder, dropping their phone and mumbling an apology. )
Jake Smith: Excuse me! Hello??
( The person, who is a female with long dark hair, had continued to walk, pausing long enough to collect her phone. )
Jake Smith: HEY!!!!!
( Jake turns and hurries to catch up with the person, roughly grabbing them by the arm and spinning them around. )
Jake Smith: Answer me when I speak to you! Did you really just brush against the shoulder of ‘The Godsend’?
( The person Jake has grabbed is none other than Raven Roberts and she looks absolutely furious that someone like Jake would even think of putting their hands on her. She jerks her arm free and shoves him back, eyes full of fury. )
Raven Roberts: If you ever put a hand on me again, I won’t hesitate to break your fucking arm.
Jake Smith: :whoa: Did you shove your tampon up the wrong hole today or something? You fucking bumped into me, not the other way around.
Raven Roberts: And I apologized for it, which is more than you deserve, and kept it moving. However, you felt the need to fucking grab me, which is the last thing a man should ever do to a woman, not that you would know anything about that since you threatened to beat Holly Arrow for not liking you and turned two other woman lesbian, but that is beside the point. Don’t put your hands on me. Period.
Jake Smith: JFC, you got it. Imagine bumping into someone and acting like they’re the bad guy. Fucking crazy ass bitch. Maybe your husband can fuck some of that aggression out of you or something.
( Jake obviously mutters that last part, but Raven hears it. She is on Jake in a flash, hands wrapped around his throat, and forcing him back against the wall. )
Raven Roberts: I’m the last person you want to make shit personal with. I have been through a lot the last year and a half, and I’m determined to make this season my best one yet and remind everyone exactly who ‘The Bird of Prey’ is. I wouldn’t want to be the person that I use as an example to remind everyone why I’ve always been one of the most feared women on the roster.
( Jake obviously can’t respond because he is being choked and Raven tightens her grip around his throat. Jake knees her in the stomach out of pure instinct, and Raven lets him drop, clutching her stomach. )
Jake Smith: Fucking psycho.
( Jake wants nothing more to do with Raven, not with his match with Chris Elite coming up. He is cursing Raven as he walks away, and Raven doesn’t follow him. She watches him go, narrowing her eyes, and it’s clear that whatever just happened between these two isn’t going to be confined to this single incident. )
( Voltage goes to break. )
(Commercial for Black Widow featuring Limmy Monaghan, who tells everyone to watch the movie solely for it’s usage of famous song “Smells Like Teen Spirit”.)
( As we resume the action off the commercial break, we see a shot of the backstage section of Minute Maid Stadium. There is production equipment everywhere and production crates as well lined up along the walls. The production crew of all levels are passing by showing just how busy the place is with the reality of now being on the road again and working before a live crown and no longer inside World1 Theater as we then hear someone clearly in a ranting mood. The camera is moving towards the left, moving closer and closer to the individual as we see the back of the one talking loudly enough to have caught the attention of the cameraman. Lucas Johnson is seen dressed in ring gear, showing that he had not changed since his match against Shane Gates, which gave him a rather controversial victory, looking ruffled and annoyed. He has a phone over one of his ears as he is pacing back and forth, looking to be in his own mind right now. He wipes some sweat off his forehead with the towel that is around his neck. )
Lucas Johnson: Yes, yes, love I know. Yes, I understand, but it really just grinds my gear I…
( He listens more as someone on the other side of the phone is talking to him. He looks straight at the camera for a few seconds, rolling his eyes, doing nothing else as he nods through what he is being told. )
Lucas Johnson: I get that, I do! But to think that I was so close and missed it! Argh! I can’t believe I actually allowed Danny Tanner, Danny Freaking TANNER of all people to be faster than me and accept Donovan Duke’s challenge at Bloodsport! To get beaten in the ring is one thing, but to lose a chance at something great simply because someone said dibs faster? This is pissing me off beyond annoying, man. I mean this timeline is going out of its way to make me angry. It’s mind-blowingly frustrating! I mean, it’s bad enough that I lost a match to the likes of Ryan Wilson, again, but to miss out on something like Duke’s challenge? It’s exasperating!
( Lucas listens to what his beloved Meghan says, but then from the left, a hand moves over his shoulder and two fingers tap them. Lucas doesn’t flinch, but he freezes before turning to see who is bothering him. The camera backs off to reveal it was the New Breed Champion, Ryan Wilson, with a large smile on his bearded face and holding the belt prominently over a shoulder that is standing there and gives him a wave in silence. )
Lucas Johnson: I have to go dear, yes things will work out I am sure. Love you.
( He pockets the phone and simply looks towards his long-time rival. )
Ryan Wilson: Heard you mention me by name, I had to come and see what’s up.
( Lucas Johnson groans in annoyance )
Lucas Johnson: Ryan, I don’t have time for you even if you have something on your shoulder that obviously belongs to me. So I demand you get to the point and tell me what you want!
Ryan Wilson: Is that an Imperial demand from the great Emperor of Violence?
Lucas Johnson: It goes without saying!! You should give Royal Johnson the respect he deserves!
Ryan Wilson: A 5 and 2 record against you, Your Majesty, entices me to say no, not sorry. So does this beautiful New Breed Championship I have on my shoulder.
Lucas Johnson: …
Ryan Wilson: You should know this by now. I have your number, but I get that we all have to cling to whatever hope we can muster. I’m going to stop you right there, though. I ain’t here looking for a fight, I already have a great one coming against Drake King. So let’s de-escalate, chill, relax, and listen to what I have to say.
( The Wrestling Machine shrugs, rolling his eyes before giving off a motion signaling to Ryan that he proverbially has the stage. )
Ryan Wilson: Well, first off, I wanted to thank you.
( Lucas Johnson confused )
Lucas Johnson: :skip: I’m sorry?
Ryan Wilson: Yes! You heard me right, your ears aren’t deceiving you. See, you gave me a good match last week, and even if I am the better man between the two of us, I see how taking this beautiful piece of forged gold and crafted leather off my shoulders would mean to you. If you want my honest to Gawd opinion, you should be getting an opportunity to have it again.
( Lucas Johnson looks surprised, but he is also a little bit suspicious. )
Lucas Johnson: You would give me such an opportunity?
( Unable to help himself, the New Breed Champion throws his head back and laughs. )
Ryan Wilson: Are you kidding me? I just kicked your ass last week, why should I give you a chance to humiliate yourself again so soon, especially with the Championship on the line? Do you seriously want to go 6 and 2 against me this quickly? I’m not saying you shouldn’t go for it. I’m saying you need to work for it. See the difference? Beyond that, if I were you, I would be salty too to see that some bloke who can’t tell the difference between Shane Gates and Jackson Blade gets an opportunity and not me.
( Lucas looks increasingly annoyed bordering on getting angry, his fists balling up which Ryan notices and smirks about it. )
Ryan Wilson: Besides, didn’t Shane just rag-dolled the sum bitch last week exactly for that? And the guy gets a crack at facing Donovan for the 24-7 contract? Where is the justice, right? You feel like crying Wolf like New Eden, right? Who is that Tanner guy anyway? No wait, I heard of him. When I was General Manager, he was working as a custodian at the Performance Center, and he sent me a demo of his work hoping to get a contract. Well, I guess some sucker in upper management saw something in him because here he is. I guess he saw Ronan begging for a job to Management at the start of Season 14, and he saw it work, so he figured it could work for him too. Lucas, at this point I feel bad for you because you got beaten to the punch by a guy who is nothing short of talent enhancement.
( Ryan stops, looking on as Lucas, who is getting more and more frustrated by this conversation. Ryan then clears his throat. )
Ryan Wilson: You are okay there, bud? Lucas seems to me like you need medication, I’m no doctor, but I would prescribe a chill pill if I could, but I will straight up say I am trolling you so calm down.
( Lucas grumbles some things that aren’t picked up clearly by the camera. )
Ryan Wilson: Let’s talk seriously for a moment, though. You are getting salty much too quickly, if you had not overreacted, had you not lost your mind you would have picked up on something Donovan said about his challenge. Something I myself clicked on the moment he spoke, so allow me to say it to you so you can see what you are missing. He said it was for everyone, which means not just Danny Tanner. That guy just happens to be the first to raise his hand and want a piece of the 24-7 pie. Do you know what that means? That means if you want another go at winning the contract, the one you did come pretty close to getting your hands on during Pain For Pride, let’s be real here, then you should go to Donovan and add yourself into the match. You should turn Duke versus Tanner into a three-way affair! Donovan Duke versus Donny Tanner versus Lucas Johnson, the Wrestling Machine, the Emperor of Violence, the Blueprint.
( Lucas blinks as he catches on. )
Lucas Johnson: :oh: I didn’t think about it this way.
Ryan Wilson: See Lucas? Food for thought right there, friendo. And then after you win it, IF you win, maybe just maybe you could use it so that you can have another shot at my Championship.
Lucas Johnson: That is definitely something to look forward to. I will make sure I go and do what I have to do to get the chance I deserve! I didn’t think I would tell you this, especially not today, but, thank you, Ryan! You really did bring some clarity that I needed about this, I was on the verge of missing an opportunity out of anger.
Ryan Wilson: See what happens when you think clearly? ATA boy! So now that you know what to do, go get’em, tiger. You got this!
( He gives Lucas a smack on the shoulder before making his way out of the picture, leaving Lucas in the center of the frame as he rubs his chin with a hand with a deeply pensive look. )
(Voltage fades back to ringside, and Bella Braxton stands in the center of the ring.)
Bella Braxton: Ladies and gentlemen…. The following contest is scheduled for ONE FALL!!!
Crowd: ONE FALL!!!!
(‘Stop Breathing’ by Playboi Carti hits, and the entire crowd begins booing as Jake Smith begins to walk out to the stage. He pretty much has the same look as usual despite what happened between him and Raven Roberts earlier. He looks confident and not worried at all about his upcoming match tonight, nor does he seem to care about the boos coming from the fans. Jake begins walking down the ramp and towards the ring, keeping a smirk on his face despite the negative reaction to him.)
Bella Braxton: Introducing first… From Newark, New Jersey… Weighing in at 210 pounds….. JJJAAAAAAAAAAKKEEEE SSSSSMMMIIITTHH!!!!!
James Peters: Here comes Jake Smith, the man who pinned the 24/7 Contract Holder just last week! He didn’t do it in the fairest of ways, but Jake is the last person I see caring about something like that.
Rich Russillo: Jake had a little altercation with Raven Roberts earlier in the night, and hopefully that’s not enough to throw him off his game tonight. Jake is a talented individual and this could be a big win for him.
Persephone: How? It’s just Chris Elite. That’s not a big win for anyone.
(As Jake waits inside of the ring, ‘Invincible’ by Pop Smoke hits, and Chris Elite begins to make his way out to the stage. Chris Elite isn’t the biggest fan favorite, but the entire crowd is cheering for him as they despise Jake Smith. Chris begins making his way towards the ring, and he looks confident in his chances tonight just like Jake. Chris did have a good night after all as he got a National Elite Championship opportunity, and he has no doubts that he has what it takes to take Jake down tonight.)
Bella Braxton: And his opponent… From Brooklyn, New York…. Weighing in at 210 pounds…. CCCHHRRRIIISSSSSS EEEELLLIIITTTTEEE!!!
James Peters: And now here’s Chris Elite! Chris Elite actually had a good night so far, as it turns out he’ll be getting the opportunity to face Minerva for the National Elite Championship at Bloodsport!
Rich Russillo: It’s a big match, so Chris really can’t afford to take a loss tonight when he’s on the road to his first Championship match of the season.
Persephone: Yeah, but he’ll probably lose anyway. Chris loses to people he should be able to beat all the time. That’s kinda his thing.
James Peters: Well both Elitists look focused for this match, so let’s see what they got!
(Ding! Ding! Ding!)
James Peters: And here we go! Chris Elite versus Jake Smith is on! Both men are circling the ring right now, and now they begin to lock up! Chris Elite manages to power Jake up against the ropes, and the referee is forced to start a count- but Chris lets go immediately- AND JAKE SLAPS CHRIS IN THE FACE! Jake has a huge grin on his face as he just slapped Chris Elite in the face- BUT CHRIS SLAPS JAKE RIGHT BACK! Chris Elite was the wrong Elitist to try and disrespect like that, and now Chris gets Jake in a headlock!
Rich Russillo: Jake runs with Chris against the ropes and forces Chris to bounce off of them, AND JAKE CHARGES IN FOR A CLOTHESLINE BUT CHRIS DUCKS UNDER THEM BEFORE RUNNING THE OPPOSITE PAIR OF ROPES- AND JAKE CATCHES HIM WITH A HEADLOCK TAKEDOWN! Jake Smith has Chris Elite in the grounded headlock, but Chris is able to escape by getting his legs around Jake’s throat, pulling Jake off of the headlock! Both Elitists get back to their feet, AND CHRIS GOES FOR THE BOX OFFICE SMASH, BUT JAKE DUCKS UNDER IT BEFORE GOING FOR A SUPERKICK HIMSELF!
James Peters: AND CHRIS CATCHES THE SUPERKICK! Chris spins Jake around, BEFORE DELIVERING A DISCUS FOREARM SMASH! Jake stumbles back, and Chris grabs Jake before sending him into the corner! Chris Elite now charges in, BUT JAKE MANAGES TO DELIVER A SIDE ELBOW TO CHRIS’ JAW! Jake grabs Chris by the neck, BEFORE SLAMMING HIS FACE INTO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE! Chris turns around, right into a kick to the midsection! Jake is just stomping away at Chris in the corner, and the referee is forced to count!
Referee: ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIV-
Persephone: I really wish Jake would just get himself disqualified, but unfortunately he let Chris go just before the count of five.
Rich Russillo: Chris Elite pulls himself out of the corner, AND NOW JAKE CHOKES CHRIS ELITE ON THE ROPES, FORCING THE REFEREE TO START ANOTHER COUNT!
Referee: ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR-
Rich Russillo: And Jake lets go, but only before pressing Chris’ throat against the middle rope!
Referee: ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FI-
Rich Russillo: And now Jake lets go, BUT ONLY BEFORE PULLING CHRIS INTO A SLEEPER HOLD! Jake repeatedly choked Chris against the ropes, and he might be putting this match to an end already!
James Peters: NOPE! CHRIS IS ABLE TO DROP TO A KNEE AND PULL JAKE INTO A SNAPMARE, AND HE QUICKLY RUNS THE ROPES BEFORE DELIVERING A FRONT DROPKICK! Chris is holding his throat, and I imagine some damage may have already been done! Nonetheless Chris is still in this match, and Jake may be getting back up to his feet right now, BUT CHRIS IS OFF AND RUNNING THE ROPES!! OPEN YA MATA- NO! JAKE JUST BARELY AVOIDS THE JUMPING KNEE STRIKE, AND NOW HE PULLS CHRIS INTO A SCHOOL BOY ROLL UP, THE SAME MOVE HE USED TO PIN DONOVAN DUKE LAST WEEK!
ONE!
TW-
Rich Russillo: AND CHRIS ELITE IS OUT OF IT! CHRIS IMMEDIATELY JUMPS UP, AND HE DELIVERS A KICK TO THE SIDE OF JAKE’S HEAD! That was an amazing move by Chris Elite, who might just be in control of this match right now! Chris Elite pulls Jake up to his feet, AND HE DELIVERS A NORTHERN LIGHTS SUPLEX! Chris doesn’t go for the cover though, instead he manages to bring himself back to his feet while still holding Jake! Chris gets Jake in a front facelock, AND NOW HE LIFTS HIM UP BEFORE DELIVERING A-
Persephone: Before delivering nothing. Jake was able to deliver a knee to the top of Chris’ head before stumbling back into the corner. Chris is able to charge in, but Jake rolls out of the way as Chris went for a running forearm smash, and now Jake delivers a side kick to Chris’ midsection that dropped him to a knee. I’m surprised Jake’s leg was actually able to reach Chris’ stomach.
James Peters: JAKE WITH ANOTHER SUPERKICK ATTEMPT, BUT CHRIS DUCKS UNDER IT BEFORE PULLING JAKE’S OTHER LEG OUT FROM UNDER HIM! CHRIS NOW, JUMPING UP AND DELIVERING A DOUBLE FOOT STOMP!
Rich Russillo: NO! IT MISSES! THE DOUBLE FOOT STOMP DOESN’T CONNECT, JAKE MANAGED TO ROLL OUT OF THE WAY! Jake manages to quickly get back to his feet, AND HE HITS CHRIS IN THE SIDE OF THE HEAD WITH A HUGE BICYCLE KICK AS CHRIS CHARGED IN! Chris Elite stumbles back a bit, AND NOW JAKE KICKS CHRIS’ LEG OUT FROM UNDER HIM BEFORE RUNNING THE ROPES! JAKE GOES FOR A SHINING WIZARD TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD, BUT CHRIS ELITE IS ABLE TO DUCK UNDER IT! CHRIS NOW GRABS JAKE, AND PULLS HIM UP FOR A DEADLIFT GERMAN SUPLEX!
James Peters: What an impressive show of strength by Chris Elite! Jake just had to pull himself to the ropes to get himself back to his feet, AND CHRIS CHARGES TOWARDS JAKE- BUT JAKE IS ABLE TO GET A BOOT UP! Chris Elite stumbles back, BUT HE RESPONDS WITH A BICYCLE KICK OF HIS OWN, SENDING JAKE OUT ONTO THE APRON! Jake is in a lot of trouble here! I don’t think he saw this match going like this! Chris Elite goes after Jake- BUT JAKE PULLS CHRIS’ THROAT DOWN ONTO THE TOP ROPE! CHRIS IS STUNNED, AND NOW-
Rich Russillo: HEAD SHOT!!!! CHRIS ELITE WAS HURT, BUT HE FOUGHT THROUGH THE PAIN TO DELIVER A HUGE PELE KICK! Jake Smith is barely even hanging onto the top rope to stay on the apron! Chris Elite quickly rushes back to his feet before running the ropes, AND NOW WHAT’S THIS!?!? CHRIS ELITE JUMPING OVER THE TOP ROPE, AND THERE’S A HUGE DDT ONTO THE RING APRON! WOW!!! BOTH ELITISTS FALL DOWN TO RINGSIDE, AND THAT MIGHT BE IT FOR JAKE!!! HIS HEAD JUST CAME CRASHING DOWN ONTO THE HARDEST PART OF THE RING!!!
Persephone: That wasn’t good enough. Jake’s brains should be splattered across the ring apron right now. Well… If he actually has anything in there. If there’s anyone around here that has an empty skull it’s probably Jake.
James Peters: Chris Elite is pulling himself back up to his feet, and that was an amazing DDT! I can’t believe what we just saw!
Persephone: Come on, that was boring. There was absolutely nothing special about that, I don’t know why you guys are acting so surprised. Chris does a bunch of unnecessary flips in literally every match, this is nothing new.
James Peters: Chris Elite sends Jake back into the ring, and Jake is slowly getting back up but Chris is waiting on the apron! CHRIS ELITE NOW, WITH A SPRINGBOARD BACK ELBOW! CHRIS NOW QUICKLY HOOKING THE LEGS, AND THAT MIGHT BE IT FOR JAKE SMITH! THIS MATCH MIGHT BE OVER!
ONE!
TW-
James Peters: JAKE SMITH GETS THE SHOULDER UP! This match is still on and it might not be ending anytime soon at this rate! These are two extremely talented Elitists, and I’m interested in seeing how this match actually ends! I can see this going either way right now.
Rich Russillo: Chris Elite is in control of this match though, AND HE LIFTS JAKE UP FOR POTENTIALLY A SUPLEX, BUT JAKE IS ABLE TO PULL HIS WEIGHT DOWN AND BRING HIMSELF DOWN TO HIS FEET! NOW IT’S JAKE THAT’S TRYING TO LIFT CHRIS UP FOR A SUPLEX, BUT CHRIS IS ABLE TO GET HIS FEET ONTO THE MIDDLE ROPE, BEFORE SPRINGING OFF OF TURNBUCKLE AND DELIVERING A TORNADO SUPLEX! Fantastic move by Chris Elite, and this has been all Chris so far! Chris now going back after Jake, and-
Persephone: And the midget pulls Chris into a small package pin.
ONE!
TWO!!
T-
James Peters: CHRIS ELITE IS OUT OF IT! Both Elitists get back up, BUT JAKE SMITH DELIVERS A HUGE SPINEBUSTER AS SOON AS CHRIS ELITE CHARGES AT HIM!
Persephone: Wait… Jake did that?? :mjlol: That’s gotta be the weakest spinebuster I’ve ever seen.
James Peters: Well it clearly did the damage Jake wanted! Jake Smith picks Chris Elite up, AND HE DROPS HIM RIGHT BACK DOWN TO THE MAT WITH A HUGE MICHINOKU DRIVER, FOLLOWING IT UP WITH A PIN TO POSSIBLY PUT THIS MATCH AWAY! IS THAT IT FOR CHRIS ELITE!?
ONE!
TWO-
Rich Russillo: NO! CHRIS IS STILL IN THIS MATCH!
Jake Smith: (off-mic) :wtf: That was clearly three!
Referee: (off-mic) :skip: That wasn’t even close.
Rich Russillo: Jake just shakes his head, and it looks like he’s about to try and finish this match off! Jake pulls Chris into the headlock, AND HE WAS ABOUT TO GO FOR IN BLOOM, BUT CHRIS PUSHED JAKE INTO THE ROPES, AND NOW THERE’S A HUGE BACKSTABBER BY CHRIS ELITE AS JAKE BOUNCES OFF OF THEM! Chris Elite just saved his chances in this match with that amazing backstabber! What a counter by the man who’ll face Minerva at Bloodsport!
James Peters: Chris Elite now pulls Jake into an electric chair- AND JAKE BEGINS PUNCHING AWAY AT THE TOP OF CHRIS ELITE’S HEAD! JAKE TRYING HIS BEST TO ESCAPE CHRIS’ ATTEMPT AT POSSIBLY DELIVERING THE FUSION DANCE, AND HE DOES IT! JAKE SLIPS OUT OF CHRIS’ GRASP, AND NOW JAKE PULLS CHRIS UP FROM BEHIND! JAKE SMITH ATTEMPTING ULTIMA- BUT CHRIS MANAGES TO LAND A HUGE KNEE TO JAKE’S FACE! CHRIS ESCAPES WHAT WOULD’VE BEEN A HUGE REVERSE BRAINBUSTER, AND IT LOOKS LIKE CHRIS IS ABOUT TO GO FOR A BIG MOVE OF HIS OWN!
Rich Russillo: OPEN YA MATA!!! CHRIS ELITE CONNECTS WITH THE JUMPING KNEE STRIKE, THE SAME MOVE HE ATTEMPTED TO HIT EARLIER IN THE MATCH THAT DIDN’T CONNECT! WELL IT CONNECTED THIS TIME, AND JAKE’S LIGHTS ARE OUT! THE “GODSEND” HAS BEEN KNOCKED OUT, AND NOW CHRIS ELITE GOES FOR THE COVER TO PUT HIM AWAY!
ONE!
TWO!!
THR-
Rich Russillo: NO!!! HOW!?!? JAKE SMITH MANAGED TO GET THE SHOULDER UP!! Jake Smith just barely managed to get his shoulder off of the mat, right before the referee could hit the mat a third time! That was so close, this match was nearly over!
Persephone: Well that sucks. So close to finally moving on and instead we have to keep sitting through this.
James Peters: Chris Elite now climbing up to the top rope, and it looks like he may be looking to put an end to this match! We all know just what Chris is capable of, AND IT LOOKS LIKE JAKE SMITH DOESN’T WANT ANY PART OF IT AS HE ROLLS OUT OF THE RING! Jake immediately drops down to a knee as he’s still hurt, but it looks like he may have just saved himself- OR NOT! WOW! CHRIS ELITE WITH A DIVING MOONSAULT TO JAKE!!!
Rich Russillo: CHRIS ELITE MANAGES TO LAND ON HIS FEET AFTER TAKING JAKE DOWN WITH A THAT DIVING MOONSAULT, AND IT LOOKS LIKE HE’S NOT FINISHED WITH JAKE JUST YET! CHRIS HAS ROLLED BACK INTO THE RING, AND IT LOOKS LIKE HE’S WAITING FOR JAKE TO GET BACK UP TO HIS FEET! Jake is slowly finding his way back up, but he might still be in a lot of trouble here! Chris clearly has something in mind, AS HE NOW BEGINS RUNNING THE ROPES! FOSBURY FLOP BY CHRIS ELITE-
James Peters: SUPERKICK!!! JAKE SMITH JUST HIT CHRIS WITH A SUPERKICK FROM MIDAIR!!! JAKE JUST TOOK CHRIS’ HEAD OFF! JAKE ROLLS CHRIS BACK INTO THE RING, AND NOW HE QUICKLY PULLS HIMSELF UP ONTO THE MIDDLE ROPE! JAKE SMITH IS ABOUT TO PUT CHRIS ELITE AWAY, HE’S ABOUT TO WIN THIS MATCH! HELL ABOVE!!! HELL ABOVE CONNECTS, AND NOW JAKE GOES FOR THE COVER! THAT’S IT!!!
ONE!
TWO!!
THREE-
James Peters: CHRIS ELITE JUST BARELY MANAGES TO GET THE SHOULDER UP! CHRIS IS STILL SHOWING SIGNS OF LIFE, SOMEHOW THIS MATCH ISN’T OVER YET! I genuinely can’t believe it, I thought the match was over!
Rich Russillo: Jake did too! Jake Smith is furious right now, and I can’t say I blame him! He kicked Chris Elite’s head off and followed it up with one of his biggest moves! This has been a fantastic match, and I really have no idea how this one is going to end. Chris Elite has been putting up a great fight, but right now Jake Smith is in control and he’s making sure things stay that way! Jake is on top of Chris, punching away at the man who COULD become the National Elite Champion at Bloodsport!
Persephone: Chris really didn’t have to kick out of that. He could’ve taken the L. He’ll still have his title match and Jake will still be short. Who cares what happens here?
James Peters: Jake pulls Chris back up to his feet, BEFORE SENDING HIM CRASHING INTO THE TURNBUCKLES! Jake now stomping away at Chris Elite, AND NOW HE RUNS THE ROPES- JUST FOR CHRIS TO SPRING BACK UP TO HIS FEET AND DELIVER A HUGE SPEAR TO JAKE! CHRIS ELITE WITH AN ACT OF DESPERATION, TEARING JAKE IN HALF WITH AN AMAZING SPEAR!! Chris Elite is still struggling to get back up, but somehow he’s not done in this match just yet!
Rich Russillo: Jake Smith slowly gets back up to his feet as he stumbles into the corner, AND NOW CHRIS ELITE CHARGES IN- BUT JAKE MOVES OUT OF THE WAY, CAUSING CHRIS TO GO SHOULDER FIRST INTO THE RING POST! I thought Jake was struggling there, but just like that he managed to turn the match right back towards his favor! Jake loves to talk about how he’s able to outsmart his opponents, and right now he might’ve done it again! JAKE PULLS CHRIS OUT OF THE CORNER, AND NOW THERE’S THE 505!!!
Persephone: :blessed: Guillotine choke! Now this match should definitely be ending soon! Chris really has no reason to try and force himself to get out of this submission, and if I’m lucky he WON’T try. He’ll just let himself pass out or better yet tap out. Then we can all come one step closer to ending this stupid show! I really don’t care about a match between Chris Elite and Jake Smith of all people. This match had no reason to last as long as it did in the first place, and it has no reason to continue after this either.
James Peters: Chris Elite is struggling inside of this submission, and this is exactly what Jake Smith wants! The longer Chris is trapped in this submission, the better it is for Jake! This match is slowly but surely falling in Jake’s favor, and just imagine the momentum Jake would gain by beating the 24/7 Contract holder and the challenger for the National Elite Championship in back to back weeks, even if he didn’t beat Donovan fairly. Chris Elite is trying to reach out towards the ropes, but let’s be honest. He doesn’t stand a chance of reaching them!
Persephone: Imagine Jake Smith of all people making you pass out :mjlol:. His arms look like twigs, Chris shouldn’t have any trouble getting out of this.
Rich Russillo: Chris Elite is slowly beginning to fade though, and the longer he’s in the submission the harder it is for him to actually fight out of it! The crowd is booing extremely loudly, and it looks like this match may be over very soon! Chris is stuck in this grounded Guillotine Choke, and I don’t know if he can get out of it at this point-
James Peters: WAIT! CHRIS PULLS HIMSELF BACK UP TO HIS FEET, AND HE GETS AN ARM OVER JAKE’S NECK, PULLING HIM INTO A FRONT FACELOCK! CHRIS ELITE LIFTS JAKE UP, AND HE DROPS HIM DOWN ONTO THE MAT WITH A BRAINBUSTER! JAKE SMITH WAS JUST DROPPED WITH AN AMAZING BRAINBUSTER, AND THAT HAS TO BE IT!! CHRIS ELITE JUST BARELY PUTS AN ARM OVER JAKE, AND NOW THERE’S THE COVER! CHRIS ELITE NOT ONLY SAVED HIS CHANCES IN THIS MATCH, BUT HE JUST ENDED THE MATCH AS WELL!!!!
ONE!
TWO!!
THREE-
Persephone: OH MY GOD, STOP KICKING OUT ALREADY!!!
Rich Russillo: Both men are exhausted after everything they’ve done in this match, but we still need a winner! Neither Chris Elite or Jake Smith have been able to put this one away, and you just have to respect how far they’re willing to go in order to get the victory tonight!
Persephone: No I don’t have to respect it, not when they’re putting out boring, overly long snoozefests. This match has been garbage, and the sooner it ends the better. Why it still hasn’t ended yet is beyond me, but I’m over it. These two need to hurry up and do something.
James Peters: Both men are slowly getting back up to their feet, AND CHRIS ELITE HITS JAKE WITH A RIGHT HAND, CAUSING JAKE TO DROP TO A KNEE! Chris looks to follow it up, BUT JAKE GETS BACK UP AND HITS CHRIS WITH A FOREARM! NOW CHRIS HITS JAKE WITH A FOREARM OF HIS OWN! NOW JAKE WITH A FOREARM IN RETURN! NOW CHRIS! NOW JAKE! NOW CHRIS! NOW JAKE! NOW CHRIS- WAIT! JAKE JUST SWUNG AT CHRIS FOR A CLOTHESLINE, BUT CHRIS DUCKS UNDER IT BEFORE QUICKLY RUNNING THE ROPES, AND DELIVERING A-
Rich Russillo: NOTHING! HE DOESN’T DELIVER ANYTHING BECAUSE JAKE CATCHES HIM WITH ANOTHER BICYCLE KICK! Jake Smith now, PULLING CHRIS INTO THE STARMAKER- NO! CHRIS PUSHES JAKE AWAY JUST AS JAKE TRIED TO DELIVER THE MOVE, AND NOW THERE’S A FOREARM TO THE BACK OF JAKE’S HEAD! CHRIS ELITE PULLS JAKE UP, AND I THINK ONCE AGAIN CHRIS IS ABOUT TO TRY THE FUSION DANCE, BUT JUST LIKE BEFORE JAKE BEGINS TO PUNCH AWAY AT CHRIS! JAKE MANAGES TO SLIP OUT OF CHRIS’ GRASP AGAIN, AND NOW JAKE PULLS CHRIS INTO A HEADLOCK!! JAKE NOW, LOOKING TO PUT THIS MATCH AWAY! IN BLOOM!!
James Peters: NO! CHRIS ELITE TOSSES JAKE OVER HIM! JAKE MANAGES TO LAND ON HIS FEET, AND CHRIS LOOKS FOR A CLOTHESLINE BUT JAKE MANAGES TO DUCK UNDER IT! SUPERKICK TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD BY JAKE SMITH!!! Chris Elite looks like he may have been knocked unconscious! That was a devastating kick to the back of the head!
Persephone: One step closer to this match finally ending. If Chris really is out cold I don’t even know why we’re still here. This match should’ve been called off already. We should be moving on by now.
Rich Russillo: Well I think you’re in luck Persephone, because Jake Smith is undoubtedly looking to put this match away! Jake now getting Chris in the single underhook, AND HE GOES FOR THE FAMOUS LAST WORDS- BUT CHRIS TWISTS HIMSELF OUT OF IT BEFORE PULLING JAKE INTO THE BOX OFFICE SMASH!!! HOW DID CHRIS JUST PULL THAT ONE OFF!?!? THE BOX OFFICE SMASH CONNECTS BY CHRIS ELITE, AND NOW CHRIS DROPS DOWN ON TOP OF JAKE FOR THE COVER AFTER THAT AMAZING COUNTER! WE THOUGHT JAKE KICKED CHRIS’ HEAD OFF EARLIER, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE CHRIS ELITE JUST RETURNED THE FAVOR!
ONE!
TWO!!
THREE!!!
(Ding! Ding! Ding!)
Bella Braxton: Here is your winner… CCHHRRIIISSSSSSS EEEELLLIIIIIIIIITTTEEE!!!!!
James Peters: What a match these two just put on! Chris Elite is going to face Minerva for the National Elite Championship at Bloodsport, and this was a great way to pick up momentum on his road to Bloodsport!
Rich Russillo: Jake Smith gave that match everything he could, but in the end it wasn’t enough. Chris Elite gets another win added to his resume, and Minerva needs to watch out. This is her opponent in just a few weeks after all.
Persephone: I’m just glad that this is finally over with. We have way too much stuff left to go.
James Peters: Congratulations to Chris Elite for picking up his first victory of the season!
(‘Invincible’ hits, and the crowd is full of cheers thanks to Chris defeating Jake Smith. Chris slowly rolls off of Jake before finding his way back to his feet, and he has his hand raised by the referee before pulling his arm away and continuing to celebrate on his own. The camera cuts to Jake Smith, and he is still unconscious after that superkick. The camera shows Chris Elite one last time as he continues to celebrate his win, until finally Voltage fades away from ringside.)
( Voltage fades away from the ringside area and cuts to the lockerroom area. The lockerroom door of the Universal Women’s Champion is open, and Ms. Extreme is seen comforting her younger sister, Candice Blair, who hasn’t had the best night. Candice is hurting from the attack at the hands of Miku Sakai earlier in the evening, and partially due to that beating, she was unable to overcome the challenge of Donovan Duke. Candice is a sad panda right now, needless to say. )
Candice Blair: This is not how I wanted to start my season. Like yes, I got knocked out at Pain for Pride and lost the Specialists Championship again, but I cemented myself as the star EAW needs to bridge the gap between professional wrestling and the entertainment industry. I really do have the ‘IT’ factor. I’m kind and compassionate. I clearly care about people. I can also beat them senseless when they act out. AND… I have everything going for me in terms of my beauty. I really am the whole package :wow:. It’s actually pretty incredible when you think about it, Camille.
( The champion forces a smile on her face because she doesn’t want to be the one who crushes Candice’s dreams about becoming a singer, at least not tonight when Candice is in obvious distress. She simply pats her sister on the back and shrugs her shoulders. )
Ms. Extreme: It is incredible, although I do think you should shift your focus just to wrestling for now. I know Cameron and Consuela have managed to build a brand away from EAW, but it was still EAW and wrestling that gave them the ability to spread their wings and see what else is out there. Even with their other businesses and projects, wrestling is still their focus and their livelihood. It almost killed Cameron, but being away from the ring killed her even more.
Candice Blair: Right, but I’m not Cameron or Consuela. I am Candice Blair and there’s nothing wrong with me being ambitious and wanting to test the waters when it comes to other areas of the entertainment industry. I can be a champion and still work on my album. I can train for matches while modeling and auditioning for acting roles. I can literally save the world while kicking the ass of whatever idiot tries to get in my way.
( Ms. Extreme doesn’t reply right away. This has been Candice’s attitude since Pain for Pride ended. The youngest Ava has done nothing but talk about wanting to expand her brand especially after the Pain for Pride entrance went viral. She was reveling in the attention she had received for portraying Marilyn Monroe and didn’t seem to care that some of the attention wasn’t positive. Ms. Extreme knew Candice better than anyone else in the world, and she knew that this wasn’t the road her sister needed to go down. She knew that Candice had the most raw talent out of all the sisters when it came to this sport, but she lacked the focus and the drive that had made the Avas an absolute force to be reckoned with. )
Ms. Extreme: When was the last time you met up with Desmond for a training session?
( Candice furrowed her brow and looked over at her sister. )
Candice Blair: What?
Ms. Extreme: It’s a legitimate question, Candice. When was the last time you went to training?
( Candice can’t help but feel a teeny bit insulted that Ms. Extreme is questioning her work ethic, especially when Candice had just gone out and put on a hell of a match with Donovan, despite being less than 100%. )
Candice Blair: I work out every day, thank you very much. Just because I have a lot on my plate doesn’t mean I’m going to let myself go or whatever you’re insinuating right now.
Ms. Extreme: You know as well as I do that there is a big difference between working out and actually training. You lost at Pain for Pride, but showed everyone that you’re not afraid to get down and dirty in the ring, and that you’re damn sure not afraid of getting hurt. You fought like a fucking champion and raised your stock.
Candice Blair: Duh. I know this, Camille. I mean, the gruesome ending of the Specialists Championship match went viral as well, and everyone is talking about how tough I am, in addition to how gifted I am vocally. I have everything in the world going for me right now, and it really pisses me off that Miku Sakai has decided to stick her nose in my business and make me suffer like this. She attacked me for no reason, and I did nothing to her.
Ms. Extreme: :usure:
Candice Blair: Yes.
Ms. Extreme: I think you are omitting some of the facts. She was backstage giving an interview and you interrupted her last week. You did the same thing this week and clearly both members of IDOL-GUN are on some delusional fucking power trip after losing their titles to Xavlo, and while I will never be the one to defend any member of IDOL-GUN because I fucking hate them, YOU are the one who picked the fight with Miku, intentional or not.
Candice Blair: She slapped me in the face!
( Ms. Extreme can’t help but roll her eyes. )
Ms. Extreme: It’s not the first time you’ve been slapped and it definitely won’t be the last.
Candice Blair: She basically cost me a win against Donovan tonight.
Ms. Extreme: Okay. What are you going to do about it, then? Are you going to sit back here and wallow in your misery, while trying to convince me and everyone else that wrestling is still your priority despite you not being able to go ten minutes without mentioning this album you are supposedly cutting or are you going to confront Miku and make her regret ever fucking with an Ava?
( Candice sits up straight, although she can’t help but wince. Miku’s attack plus the match with Donovan will no doubt leave her sore for the next few days. )
Candice Blair: I mean, I guess I could challenge her or something for Bloodsport, but the poor girl has been through enough. I mean she lost at Pain for Pride. She’s basically an alcoholic now. She has to watch her partner get a world title match that she is definitely going to lose. Should I really challenge her and expose her for not being able to get the job done without Hikari?
( Candice can’t help but giggle and her blue eyes shine with a hint of mischief. )
Candice Blair: PERFECT idea, Camille! I’m glad we talked!
( Candice jumps up, but immediately regrets that decision. She feels every bit of the beating Miku gave her earlier and starts to limp towards Ms. Extreme’s door. )
Ms. Extreme: :mjlol: You good, fam?
Candice Blair: Y-yes. I totally got this. Miku is totally going to get a piece of my mind.
( Candice pauses and flashes Ms. Extreme a sheepish smile. )
Candice Blair: Next week.
Ms. Extreme: :mjlol: :mjlol:
( Candice gingerly leaves the lockerroom, leaving the Universal Women’s Champion alone with her thoughts. However, the peace doesn’t last. )
???: :adpeek:
Ms. Extreme: :wtf:
( The EAW World Champion, Drake King, pokes his head into Ms. Extreme’s lockerroom. )
Drake King: Do you have a moment?
Ms. Extreme: For you? No.
Drake King: :francis:
( Drake walks into her lockerroom anyway, which really does nothing but annoy Ms. Extreme. )
Ms. Extreme: I didn’t invite you in. What the fuck? You really just can’t go around and walk into whatever lockerroom you please. That is fucking creepy and I am not Sierra Bradford.
Drake King: Can you please tone down your language? I didn’t come here to pick a fight with you.
Ms. Extreme: I will not fucking tone down my fucking language because it fucking bothers you.
Drake King: 😐
Ms. Extreme: 😊
Drake King: Well, nevertheless, I came to see how you were doing after last week.
Ms. Extreme: :comeagain: Why would you care?
( Drake sighs. )
Drake King: Because while I don’t agree with anything you stand for and wish that you had a better outlook on things, I looked forward to facing you last week. I think you are good even if the attitude leaves a lot to be desired. The whole point of New Eden is to remind people of what this sport is supposed to be about and that is two people getting into the ring together and pushing one another to have the best match possible. Competition is a great thing, Camille, and you are a tough competitor. Even though our match was billed as some nonsensical ‘Champion versus Champion Showcase’ match, it was still a match that was worth being in. The way it ended made me absolutely sick to my stomach and of course Captain Charisma didn’t do anything about it. The man you support did nothing to protect you and he didn’t so much as give IDOL-GUN a slap on the wrist to reprimand them for allowing their si…
( Drake makes a face, almost as if he is about to vomit. )
Drake King: For allowing their simps :mjlol: to be all over the building last week. You could have been seriously injured in that attack. Why were they even allowed to have that many guests at ringside anyway? None of it makes any sense, and this is your commissioner.
( Ms. Extreme practically rolls her eyes to the back of her head. )
Ms. Extreme: You’re wasting your breath and more importantly, my time right now. Captain Charisma didn’t do anything about it because I told him not to. I don’t need an authority figure to cater to me, Drake. I’m perfectly capable of handling my business myself, and what happened last week doesn’t mean a fucking thing to me. Hikari Kanno has to face me in that ring tonight when we spin the wheel, and she will have to answer for the shit that went down last week. I’m not the type of person who is going to bitch about unfavorable circumstances because I know that no matter the odds, I’m going to overcome them and continue shattering glass ceilings. I’m the Universal Women’s Champion, and I dare someone to try and tell me that I’m not the most important world champion in the company. Fuck the fatty that thinks he runs Dynasty. Fuck that dumb whore Kassidy Heart. Fuck you too, Drake, because honestly, I really just can’t stand your face.
Drake King: :francis: So I came here to check on you and make sure you were okay after what happened last week, and instead of you being grateful, I have swears thrown at me and I’m insulted.
Ms. Extreme: I don’t want your concern.
Drake King: I’m the bad guy because I took time out of my day to find my opponent from last week, tell them I didn’t like the ending of our match, and that something should be done to punish IDOL-GUN.
Ms. Extreme: I don’t want your concern.
Drake King: It’s really unbelievable that me extending an olive branch, against my better judgment might I add, has somehow continued to reinforce this narrative that I’m selfish and only care about myself, even though for the last year I have done everything I can to make EAW a better place. I’m sad that I was concerned about your hea-
Ms. Extreme: I DON’T WANT YOUR CONCERN!
( Drake’s eyes flash with anger and clash with Camille’s. She looks like a storm cloud right now, about to strike and Drake just shakes his head. )
Drake King: Duly noted, Camille.
( The ‘Last Messiah’ turns on his heels and leaves Camille alone, slamming her door shut despite the fact she had left it open. )
( The sound of laughter can be heard, and that draws Drake’s attention. He glares at his stablemate, Minerva, who seems to be enjoying how badly his conversation went with Ms. Extreme. )
Drake King: I don’t find anything about that exchange funny at all.
Minerva: Camille is such a firecracker 😍. What a woman.
Drake King: Camille is just another spoiled Ava plaguing this company like a cancer.
Minerva: You’re just mad because you crashed and burned.
( Drake is not amused in the least little bit. He fixes his gaze on Minerva, looking extremely serious. )
Drake King: If I were you, I would go to Myles and make sure he is ready for the crack addict he is about to face. That absolute waste of space is probably high as a kite right now, which means Myles will be unnecessarily risking his life once the bell rings. It’s bad enough Jamie broke his nose earlier and nearly concussed him, and of course no one stopped it because everyone hates New Eden, but this match against Justin Windgate now has bigger stakes. I don’t believe there is such a thing as a functioning drug addict and I don’t want to see anything happen to Myles.
( Minerva does her best not to roll her eyes. )
Minerva: The only bad thing that will happen tonight is Justin Windgate not being able to make it to Bloodsport. I’ll be out there watching Myles’ back, you can be sure of that. As far as Jamie goes, he will regret what he did, and you know that as well as I do. Captain Charisma isn’t going to take action, but we will. One thing at a time, though.
( That is exactly what the EAW World Champion wants to hear. He nods his head at Minerva. )
Drake King: Good. No one BUT New Eden.
Minerva: No one BUT New Eden.
( Those are the final words spoken as two of the members of New Eden split and go their separate ways. Drake heads off to pray or whatever it is he does before a match, while Minerva makes her way to where she knows her boyfriend is. Myles’ match with Justin Windgate is next. )
( Voltage fades into a commercial break. )
( Commercial break for microwaves starring Jake Smith. He doesn’t actually use one, he just stands there next to it and tries to appear tall. )
(The camera cuts to Bella Braxton in the ring.)
Bella Braxton: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.. THE FOLLOWING CONTEST IS SCHEDULED FOR…ONE FALL!!
Crowd: ONE FALL!!
(‘Enemy Strike’ by Yuki Hayashi blares throughout the arena to a negative reaction as Myles is the first one out, accompanied by Minerva, who’s carrying her National Elite Championship as Myles carries his case. Myles certainly is heading to the ring at a steady pace, still feeling the effects of his attack earlier at the hands of Jamie.)
Bella Braxton: Introducing first! Hailing out of Melbourne, Australia, weighing in at 215 pounds, accompanied to the ring by Minerva…HE IS MR. CASH IN THE VAULT…THE WARLORD…MYLES!!
Persephone: I was hoping he wasn’t gonna show up so we wouldn’t have to sit through this match.
James Peters: You should’ve never expected that outta Myles, I don’t think he’s gonna really avoid a fight under any circumstances, especially the one he’s in, having been brutalized by Jamie O’Hara earlier.
Rich Russillo: An attack that might honestly fuel him tonight if he can harness that anger toward O’Hara over to his opponent for this evening, Justin Windgate.
(‘Enemy Strike’ fades out and gets replaced by ‘High All The Time’ by 50 Cent, which gets a raucous reaction from the EAW crowd, happy to see Justin Windgate, who walks down to the ring, confident and having a slight playful smirk on his face, knowing Myles isn’t at 100% tonight.)
Bella Braxton: And his opponent! Hailing out of Detroit, Michigan, weighing in at 225 pounds…HE IS THE XTREME CLASSIC…JUSTIN WINDGATE!
James Peters: Bella Braxton said the Xtreme Classic, but following Bloodsport, he may be known as the Xtreme Champion.
Rich Russillo: Yeah, Justin Windgate has a big task ahead of him in taking on Drake King at the event, who you know isn’t gonna be looking to drop in his first defense.
James Peters: I don’t think he’ll be looking to drop the title over to anyone in general, especially someone like Windgate, I’m sure King doesn’t think he’s worthy of anything but exile. But tonight, Windgate looks to prove he’s worthy of a title shot by defeating the right hand man of Drake King, Myles.
(Windgate takes his entrance gear off as his song fades out, meanwhile, in the opposite corner, Myles is on the receiving end of a talk from Minerva, who stands up on the apron, whispering something in his ear before dropping down as the referee signals for the bell.)
(DING! DING! DING!)
James Peters: Alright, the bell has rung and the match is officially underway, it’ll be interesting to see the back-and-forth between these two talented competitors as they now look to lockup in the center of the ring- OH! Or so we thought as Windgate faked out Myles, catching him with a kick to the midsection instead, and now Windgate tacks on a standing side headlock, targeting the head of Myles! The match is still early and Myles is already in some extreme trouble, no pun intended. But regardless, Myles bounces Windgate off the ropes, effectively escaping that side headlock. But Windgate hangs onto the ropes before he can return back to the waiting arms of Myles, smart move there.
Rich Russillo: Myles and Windgate begin to circle each other before going for another lockup in the center of the ring. But again, Windgate fakes out Myles in doing a go behind instead! Windgate has a rear waistlock in on Myles, WHO CLOCKS HIM WITH A STRONG BACK ELBOW, CAUSING WINDGATE TO RELEASE HIS GRASP! MYLES TAKES ADVANTAGE OF THIS, RUNNING OFF THE ROPES IN FRONT OF HIS OPPOSITION! WINDGATE DROPS DOWN TO THE MAT, MYLES GOES REBOUNDING OFF THE ROPES FOR A SECOND TIME! JUSTIN LEAPFROGS IN THE AIR!
James Peters: BUT MYLES RIPS HIM RIGHT OUT OF IT WITH A SAMOAN DROP! MYLES SCOOTS BACK INTO THE COVER ON WINDGATE!!
ONNNNEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWOOOO-
James Peters: Windgate gets the shoulder up! Myles gets back to his feet before standing a stunned Windgate up. MYLES IS GONNA LOOK TO END THIS EARLY WITH DE FACTO! …WINDGATE BLOCKS IT WITH A BACK ELBOW! MYLES STAGGERS BACK, HOLDING THAT HEAD, JUSTIN CAUGHT HIM GOOD! MYLES SOON SHAKES THE COBWEBS OFF AND LOOKS FOR A RUNNING LARIAT, BUT WINDGATE CATCHES THE ARM AND WRESTLES HIM DOWN TO THE MAT! WINDGATE’S GONNA ATTEMPT THE NO X-SCAPE SUBMISSION HOLD!
Rich Russillo: MYLES HAS IT WELL SCOUTED AS HE ROLLS TO THE OUTSIDE, SEPARATING HIMSELF FROM WINDGATE AS HE STRETCHES OUT HIS SHOULDER ON THE OUTSIDE! Myles takes his time to get back into the ring, really making sure to get his bearings together before he does. FOLLOWING HIS SHORT TALK WITH MINERVA ON THE OUTSIDE, MYLES SLIDES IN, MAKING A BEELINE RIGHT AT WINDGATE, WHO MAKES ANOTHER GO BEHIND ON MYLES! BUT THERE’S A STANDING SWITCH FROM THE WARLORD, PUTTING HIMSELF IN CONTROL OF THE WAISTLOCK NOW! BUT THAT’S NOT FOR LONG AS WINDGATE TAKES HIM DOWN WITH A DROP TOE HOLD, WHICH IS FOLLOWED WITH A FLOATOVER BY WINDGATE, TRAPPING THE PRONE MYLES IN A GROUNDED FRONT FACELOCK!
Persephone: Mat Wrestling…:noah: It’s only interesting when Sexy Rexy does it…but he’s not here. :will:
James Peters: Myles works his way up to a vertical base along with Windgate in that front facelock! MYLES DRIVES JUSTIN BACK FIRST INTO THE CORNER, FORCING HIM TO RELEASE HIS HOLD! MYLES DOES ONE OF HIS OWN NOW, WRINGING THE ARM OF WINDGATE AND BRINGING HIM TO THE MIDDLE OF THE RING! BUT JUSTIN LANDS A KICK TO THE GUT OF MYLES BEFORE FOLLOWING THAT UP WITH A STANDING DROPKICK! MYLES GETS TAKEN DOWN, BUT HE FINDS REFUGE IN THE CORNER, CREATING A BIT OF DISTANCE BETWEEN HIM AND HIS OPPONENT!
Rich Russillo: HOWEVER, NOT FOR LONG AS WINDGATE LOOKS TO WHIP MYLES INTO THE OPPOSITE CORNER! BUT MYLES REVERSES, SENDING WINDGATE INSTEAD, WHO COMES STUMBLING OUT OF SAID CORNER FOLLOWING THE IMPACT OFF THE COLLISION! MYLES SENDS WINDGATE INTO THE CORNER HE WAS RECENTLY IN NOW! ONCE AGAIN, JUSTIN COMES STUMBLING OUT AND INTO A SNAP SUPLEX FROM MYLES, WHO MAKES A QUICK COVER ON WINDGATE THIS TIME AROUND!
ONNNNNEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOO!!
James Peters: EMPHATIC KICKOUT BY WINDGATE! MYLES PULLS WINDGATE UP TO HIS FEET BEFORE LIFTING HIM UP IN A POWERBOMB POSITION! MYLES DOESN’T DROP WINDGATE IMMEDIATELY AS HE LOOKS TO MAKE SURE HES IN THE RING CENTER WITH IT, BUT MYLES FALLS DOWN TO ONE KNEE AS WINDGATE SLIPS OFF HIS SHOULDERS! I DON’T THINK MYLES COULD HOLD WINDGATE UP FOR LONG, AGAIN, FEELING THE EFFECTS OF THAT ATTACK, CLEARLY NOT HAVING HIS STRENGTH BE AT MAX! JUSTIN’S GONNA TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THAT WITH A KNEELING SUPERKICK TO MYLES!
Rich Russillo: THAT ONE DROPPED THE CITV HOLDER, BUT HE’S BACK UP TO A SEATED POSITION NOW! WINDGATE RUNS OFF THE ROPES AND DROPS THE STUNNED MYLES AGAIN WITH A SLIDING KNEE STRIKE, PERHAPS GIVING THE AUSSIE A TASTE OF HIS OWN MEDICINE, AS WE KNOW MYLES’ LOVE OF CRACKING OPPONENTS IN THE HEAD WITH KNEES! BUT REGARDLESS OF ALL THAT, WINDGATES MOVES INTO A COVER, HOOKING BOTH LEGS OF MYLES!
ONNNNNEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWOOOOOOOOO!!
James Peters: BUT THERE’S ANOTHER KICKOUT BY MYLES, WHO RETREATS OVER TO THE ROPES AFTER THAT CLOSE CALL THERE! JUSTIN RETRIEVES HIM AND SNAPMARES HIM DOWN TO A SEATED POSITION IN THE RING CENTER! AND NOW JUSTIN HAS A REAR CHINLOCK ON MYLES, DRIVING THAT KNEE INTO THE BACK ALSO!
Rich Russillo: Justin is playing to what he has here, and what he has is a hurt New Eden member, not to mention Cash in the Vault holder. A win like this could be huge for someone like Windgate, who’s still trying to get that loss to Ronan Malosi out the minds of many, but also trying to mount momentum for his match with Drake King.
Persephone: I don’t think people will ever forget about that blunder against Ronan, I still don’t know how he lost to that bald doofus. :mjlol2:
Rich Russillo: :wow: Anyways, Myles starts to work his way back up to a vertical position, which he soon does, fighting out the remaining grip Windgate has over him with punches to the ribcage! BUT WINDGATES DENTS MYLES IN THE BACK OF HIS HEAD WITH A POINTED ELBOW! WINDGATE LOOKS TO RUN OFF THE ROPES IN FRONT, BUT MYLES PULLS HIM BACK IN BY THE REAR OF HIS WAISTBAND AND TAKES HIM DOWN WITH A BACK SUPLEX! MYLES GRABS THE BACK OF HIS HEAD WHILE HE’S SEATED BEFORE HOOKING THE LEG OF WINDGATE!
ONNNNNEEEEEEEEEE!!
TW-
James Peters: The small moments to breathe coulda been what cost him there as Myles now pulls Windgate back up and leans him up against the ropes! AND LOOK AT MYLES WITH A FOREARM SMASH TO THE FACE, WHICH GETS FOLLOWED UP BY ANOTHER! WINDGATE IS REELING AS HE’S SENT OFF THE ROPES BY MYLES, WHO DUCKS DOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE RING, MAYBE GOING FOR A BACK BODY DROP! BUT WE DON’T FIND THIS OUT AS WINDGATE SLOWS HIMSELF DOWN TO CATCH AND SPIKE MYLES WITH A DDT! WINDGATE RUSHES INTO A COVER, KNOWING HE’S ONCE AGAIN TARGETED THE WEAK SPOT OF MYLES IN HIS HEAD!
ONNNNNEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
THHHH-
James Peters: Whoa, did you see how close the call was there?
Rich Russillo: Yeah, Windgate almost got the win right there, but even a weakened state, Myles isn’t gonna give it to him easy. Windgate realizes that and starts to pull Myles back to his feet by his head, BUT MYLES STARTS TO FIGHT BACK WITH PUNCHES TO THE BODY OF WINDGATE! MYLES IS FREE AND STARTS TO LAY IN THOSE FOREARM STRIKES WHICH WERE SEEN EARLIER ON WINDGATE! AND NOW MYLES WITH A STANDING BIG BOOT! WINDGATE ON WOBBLY LEGS! SUPERKICK ATTEMPT! BUT WINDGATE CATCHES THE BOOT BEFORE TWIRLING MYLES AROUND, SO HIS BACK IS FACING HIM!
James Peters: AND NOW WINDGATE WITH A STIFF FOREARM SMASH TO THE BACK OF MYLES HEAD, CRUMPLING DOWN HIS FOE TO ONE KNEE! MYLES IS LOOKING REAL GLOSSED OVER RIGHT ABOUT NOW! WINDGATE LIFTS THE KNEELING MYLES UP TO STANDING, HOLDING HIM BY HIS CHIN, MAKING SURE ITS TITLED UP SO HE HAS A CLEAR TARGET! ROUNDHOUSE KICK FROM WINDGATE! MYLES STAGGERS BACK OVER TO THE ROPES! WINDGATE CHARGES IN AT MYLES, WHO MANAGES TO GET THE BOOT UP, TURNING WINDGATE AROUND AS HE DOUBLES OVER, GRABBING AT HIS FACE NOW, MYLES MAYBE TURNING THE TABLES ON HIS OPPONENT!
Rich Russillo: MYLES STILL LOOKS A BIT OUT OF IT, BUT HE PUSHES FORWARD AND ATTEMPTS TO TURN AROUND WINDGATE- WHO SCORES WITH A PELE KICK! MYLES ALMOST FALLS DOWN TO THE MAT, BUT HE USES THE ROPES TO HIS ADVANTAGE IN AIDING HIM TO STAND UP! WINDGATE CHARGES AND NAILS MYLES WITH AN ELBOW RIGHT TO THE SIDE OF HIS HEAD! WINDGATE RUNS OFF THE OPPOSITE SET OF ROPES, UNDOUBTEDLY LOOKING TO LAND SOMETHING ELSE ON THE LOOSELY STANDING MYLES!
James Peters: WAIT! MYLES SNAPS OUT OF HIS DAZE AND CRACKS WINDGATE WITH A JUMPING KNEE STRIKE UPON REBOUND! AND NOW WINDGATE IS THE ONE ON WOBBLY LEGS AS HE STUMBLES INTO THE CORNER! MYLES REELS BACK INTO THE OPPOSITE CORNER, GRABBING THE SIDE OF HIS HEAD, SHOWING THAT ELBOW FROM WINDGATE DID HAVE SOME EFFECT! BUT NONETHELESS, MYLES CHARGES AT HIS OPPONENT IN THE OPPOSITE CORNER, DRIVING HIS FOREARM IN THE FACE OF WINDGATE, WHO GETS SENT OUT THE CORNER TO THE CANVAS BY MYLES, WHO ISNT EVEN ABLE TO FOLLOW UP AS HE SINKS DOWN IN THAT CORNER, BACK AGAINST THE BOTTOM TURNBUCKLE, SHOWING THE EFFECTS OF JAMIE’S ATTACK AND THE CONTINUED ONSLAUGHT HE’S GOTTEN FROM WINDGATE!
Persephone: I’m glad this idiot is hurt, he’s the reason Rex didn’t add National Elite Champion to his resume last season. #NeverForget.
James Peters: :roman:
Rich Russillo: MYLES FINALLY LOOKS MAKE A MOVE ON WINDGATE, WHO GETS BACK UP TO HIS FEET! MYLES BEGINS TO THROW THOSE REPEATED FOREARM STRIKES AGAIN, WHOSE IMPACT YOU CAN JUST HEAR RING OUT THROUGH THE ARENA! SWEAT IS FLYING OFF OF WINDGATE WITH HOW HARD MYLES IS HITTING HIM! JUSTIN FINDS HIMSELF BACK IN THE CORNER, TRYING TO COVER UP AGAINST MYLES, WHO WHIPS HIM INTO THE OPPOSITE CORNER! MYLES BUILDS MOMENTUM AND SMASHES WITH ANOTHER FOREARM!
James Peters: MYLES PULLS WINDGATE INTO A FIREMAN’S CARRY AND BRINGS HIM TO THE MIDDLE OF THE RING! BUT WINDGATE SLIPS OUT THE BACK! MYLES TAKES A WILD BACKHAND SWING AS HE TURNS HIMSELF TOWARDS WINDGATE, WHO DUCKS UNDERNEATH IT! BUT MYLES SHOVES WINDGATE BACK TO THE ROPES, WHICH HE REBOUNDS OFF OF! AND MYLES PLANTS HIM WITH A MICHINOKU DRIVER! HE HOLDS IT FOR A PIN, HOOKING THE LEG OF JUSTIN!
ONNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
T-
Rich Russillo: WINDGATE NARROWLY KICKS OUT! BUT NOTICE HOW MYLES ISN’T GETTING PARTICULARLY FRUSTRATED, THAT HAS REMAINED THE SAME THROUGHOUT THE CONTEST, ANOTHER THING BEING MYLES CONSTANT PIN ATTEMPTS AT TIMES, BECAUSE HE REALIZES IF THIS CONTEST GOES ON FOR LONG, THAT COULD BE MORE TO HIS DETRIMENT AGAINST AN OPPONENT LIKE WINDGATE, WHO WILL CAPITALIZE OFF MYLES’ MISSTEPS, THIS IS STRATEGIC BY THE KANGAROO KILLER! MYLES PULLS WINDGATE UP BY THE BACK OF HIS GEAR, READY TO INFLICT MORE PUNISHMENT! BUT WINDGATE BREAKS FREE OF MYLES WITH A PELE KICK THAT CONNECTS, CALLBACK TO EARLIER IN THIS MATCHUP WITH ANOTHER PELE KICK THAT HIT ITS MARK!
James Peters: MYLES DROPS TO ONE KNEE AS WINDGATE TAKES OFF THE SET OF ROPES IN FRONT OF MYLES, WHO WEAKLY REACHES OUT, HOPING TO GRAB WINDGATE BEFORE HE CAN MOUNT SUCH MOMENTUM, BUT ITS NO USE ON MYLES END! WINDGATE COMES BACK AND FLOORS HIM JUST AS SOON AS MYLES RETURNED TO VERTICAL! AND NOW A PIN IS MADE BY JUSTIN, HOOKING THE LEG OF MYLES!
ONNNNNEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOO!!
James Peters: MYLES GETS THE SHOULDER UP! THIS IS WHERE YOU START TO NOTICE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MYLES AND WINDGATE, WHO SEEMS TO BE GROWING SLIGHT FRUSTRATION WITH HIS OPPONENT CONTINUING TO KICKOUT! WINDGATE GETS BACK TO HIS FEET AND GRABS BOTH LEGS OF MYLES, BUT THE WARLORD KICKS WINDGATE AWAY, SENDING HIM OUT THROUGH THE MIDDLE ROPE! WINDGATE LANDS ON HIS FEET, HOWEVER, SIGNALING THAT HE HAS HIS EYES ON MINERVA, WHO HAS HER ATTENTION TO HIM ON THE OUTSIDE! BUT WHILE WINDGATE’S DISTRACTED JAW JACKING, MYLES PEEKS HIS HEAD OUT THROUGH THE MIDDLE ROPE, GRABBING AHOLD OF WINDGATE’S HEAD!
Rich Russillo: BUT WINDGATE BREAKS FREE, SURPRISING MYLES WITH AN ENZIGURI! MYLES ALMOST FALLS BACK TO THE CANVAS, BUT HE USES THE MIDDLE ROPE TO KEEP HIMSELF UPRIGHT! WINDGATE CLIMBS UP ON THE APRON, ATTEMPTING TO BRING MYLES UP AND OVER THE TOP ROPE TO THE OUTSIDE WITH A SUPLEX! BUT MYLES BLOCKS IT, STILL HAVING A HOLD OF THAT MIDDLE ROPE, WHICH HELPS GIVE HIM A BIT OF LEVERAGE OVER WINDGATE, WHO HE LIFTS OVER THE TOP ROPE AND SLAMS DOWN IN THE CENTER OF THE RING WITH A VERTICAL SUPLEX! MYLES TAKES A MOMENT TO BREATHE BEFORE SCOOTING INTO THE COVER!
ONNNNNEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
James Peters: WINDGATE POWERS OUT! MYLES PULLS HIM UP BY HIS HAIR NOW, NOT REALLY SHOWING MUCH RESPECT FOR HIS ADVERSARY! MYLES LOOKS TO IRISH WHIP WINDGATE INTO THE CORNER! BUT WINDGATE REVERSES, CHUCKING MYLES THERE INSTEAD! WINDGATE RUNS IN AT MYLES, WHO GETS THE BOOT UP! MYLES COMES OUT OF THE CORNER, NOW LIFTING WINDGATE UP ON HIS SHOULDER BEFORE DROPPING HIM DOWN FACE FIRST ON THE TOP TURNBUCKLE WITH SNAKE EYES!
Rich Russillo: MYLES BRINGS WINDGATE TO THE MIDDLE OF THE SQUARED CIRCLE, ATTEMPTING TO WHIP HIM OVER TO THE ROPES! BUT WINDGATE WRINGS THE ARM OF MYLES BEFORE PULLING HIM INTO A SNAPPY SWINGING NECKBREAKER! MYLES GRABS THE BACK OF HIS HEAD AS THE COVER IS MADE!
ONNNNNNNEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOO!!
THHHHRRRRRR-
Rich Russillo: MYLES BARELY INCHES THAT SHOULDER UP OFF THE MAT, TURNING TO HIS SIDE AS WINDGATE STARES BACK AT HIM FROM HIS SEATED POSITION, MAYBE WONDERING WHAT HE HAS TO DO AT THIS POINT! JUSTIN GETS STANDS HIMSELF UP, NOW GRABBING THE FOOT OF A DOWNED MYLES, WHO USES HIS FREE FOOT TO KICK WINDGATE IN THE FACE MULTIPLE TIMES UNTIL HE RELEASES HIS OTHER, WINDGATE DOES AS HE GETS KNOCKED LOOPY HIMSELF! MYLES TRIES TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS SLIGHT SLIVER OF OPPORTUNITY TO GET HIMSELF BACK UP TO HIS FEET! BUT WINDGATE CUTS HIM OFF AT A KNEEL WITH A BIG BOOT! WINDGATE’S REALLY EXECUTING THIS GAMEPLAN PERFECTLY!
James Peters: WINDGATE RUNS OFF THE ROPES AND GOES FOR ANOTHER BIG BOOT! BUT MYLES CATCHES THE FOOT OF JUSTIN, CONTINUING TO HOLD IT AS HE MOVES TO BOTH FEET! MYLES THROWS HIS FOOT DOWN BEFORE THROWING A HARD RIGHT AT JUSTIN, WHO FIRES BACK WITH ONE OF HIS OWN! AND NOW THE TWO ENGAGE IN A HOCKEY-LIKE BRAWL, EACH THROWING FISTICUFFS OF THEIR OWN! SURPRISINGLY, MYLES GETS THE UPPER HAND ON THIS, PERHAPS HIS ADRENALINE MANAGING TO BLOCK OUT THE PRE EXISTING PAIN TO HIS HEAD! WINDGATE IS LEANED BACK AGAINST THE ROPES! MYLES RUNS OFF THE OPPOSITE SET!
Rich Russillo: WINDGATE CATCHES MYLES RIGHT AS HES ABOUT TO REBOUND OFF THE ROPES WITH A RUNNING DROPKICK! MYLES IS DAZED AS WINDGATE RUNS OFF THE OPPOSITE SET OF ROPES HIMSELF NOW! BUT JUST LIKE WINDGATE, MYLES CUTS HIM OFF BEFORE HE COULD REBOUND OFF THE ROPES! RUNNING CALF KICK FROM MYLES, WHO LOOKS TO RUN OFF THE OPPOSITE SET OF ROPES AGAIN! BUT RIGHT WHEN WINDGATE WAS GONNA TRY TO CUT HIM OFF FOR A SECOND TIME, MYLES WAS A READY FOR IT, SIDESTEPPING AND DROPPING HIM WITH A REBOUND GERMAN SUPLEX!
James Peters: JUSTIN WINDGATE ROLLS TO BOTH KNEES AS MYLES GETS TO HIS FEET WHILE CLUTCHING THE BACK OF HIS HEAD OFF THAT GERMAN! MYLES NOW LANDS A RUNNING KNEE STRIKE, TAKING DOWN THE KNEELING WINDGATE! MYLES MOVES INTO A COVER!
ONNNNNEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOO!!
James Peters: WINDGATE KICKS OUT! BOTH COMPETITORS LIE ON THE MAT NOW, SHOWING THE FATIGUE THAT HAS SET IN! MINERVA POUNDS THE APRON, TRYING TO WILL MYLES ON! BUT THE CROWD IS LOOKING TO WILL WINDGATE ON WITH THEIR UPROAR, WHICH IS ALMOST DROWNING OUT MINERVA AT THIS POINT! BUT IN THE RING, WINDGATE ROLLS OUT TO THE APRON AND IS NOW CLIMBING TO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE! BUT MYLES FORESEES SOMETHING BAD POSSIBLY COMING HIS WAY AND CUTS WINDGATE OFF, ATTACKING HIM ON THE TOP ROPE!
Rich Russillo: MYLES CLIMBS TO THE MIDDLE ROPE NOW, HOOKING WINDGATE UP FOR A SUPERPLEX! BUT JUSTIN THROWS SHOTS TO THE BODY WITH HIS FREE HAND! AND AS THE SUPERSUPLEX GETS BROKEN, JUSTIN STARTS TO LAY INTO MYLES WITH FOREARM SMASHES THAT SEND MYLES OFF THE MIDDLE ROPE, STUMBLING BACK CLOSE TO THE RING CENTER! JUSTIN DIVES DOWN ONTO MYLES WITH A BEAUTIFUL CROSSBODY, THE HEAD OF MYLES WHIPLASHING OFF THE MAT AS WINDGATE KEEPS BOTH LEGS HOOKED FOR A COVER!
ONNNNNEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWOOOOOOOOOO!!
THH-
James Peters: COULD THIS BE I- NO! MYLES STILL MANAGES TO KICKOUT! WINDGATE PULLS THE OPPONENT BACK TO HIS FEET, HOOKING HIM UP FOR A SUPLEX- MYLES! MYLES SHIFTED THE MOMENTUM FOR A BRAINBUSTER! WINDGATE’S LIGHTS LOOKED TO BE DIMMED AS MYLES MAKES THE COVER!
ONNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOO!!
THHHHRRRREEEEE-
James Peters: ANOTHER NEARFALL THERE FROM WINDGATE, WHO ROLLS OUT TO THE APRON A SECOND TIME FOLLOWING THAT CLOSE CALL! MYLES GOES AFTER HIM, PULLING HIM UP TO BOTH FEET ON THAT APRON! WINDGATE CLOCKS MYLES WITH AN ELBOW! AND NOW WINDGATE ATTEMPTS TO SLINGSHOT HIMSELF OVER THE TOP ROPE! BUT MYLES NIPS THAT RIGHT IN THE BUD WITH A JUMPING KNEE STRIKE, KNOCKING WINDGATE TO THE OUTSIDE, END OF THE RAMP AREA!
Rich Russillo: YEAH, AND NOW LOOK INTO THE EYES OF MYLES, WHOSE FIRING UP BEFORE BUILDING UP A HEAD OF STEAM OFF THE ROPES! ….TOPE CON GIRO!!! THE CROWD ARE NOT IN FAVOR OF MYLES, BUT THEY HAD TO POP FOR THAT SPECTACLE OF A MOVE AS MYLES ROLLS WINDGATE BACK INTO THE RING! WINDGATE SCRAMBLES BACK TO HIS FEET, ONLY TO GET SENT BACK IN THE CORNER WITH A SHOTGUN DROPKICK FROM MYLES, WHO LOOKS TO MAKE THE COVER!
James Peters: BUT WINDGATE SHOWS SOME SMARTS, ROLLING OUT OF THE RING OVER TO OUR ANNOUNCE TABLE!
Persephone: Ew, he really does smell like weed.
James Peters: :wow: MYLES SLIDES OUT OF THE RING, NOW SLAMMING WINDGATE DOWN FACE FIRST ON OUR TABLE COVER BEFORE ROLLING HIM ONTO THE APRON! MYLES GETS ON THERE HIMSELF AND IS GONNA ATTEMPT A POWERBOMB FROM THE LOOKS OF THINGS ON THAT APRON! BUT WINDGATE EFFECTIVELY BLOCKS IT, DROPPING DOWN TO ONE KNEE, BASICALLY DEAD WEIGHTING MYLES! WINDGATE ESCAPES OUT FROM IN BETWEEN HIS LEGS AND CONNECTS WITH A FOREARM! WINDGATE TRAPS MYLES IN A FRONT FACELOCK! HE’S GONNA TRY A DDT ON THE APRON!
Rich Russillo: BUT MYLES SHOVES HIM OFF, MAKING WINDGATE GO BACK FIRST INTO THE RINGPOST! WINDGATE STUMBLES INTO THE WAITING ARMS OF MYLES, WHO GOES FOR A SUPLEX OR EVEN A BRAINBUSTER ON THAT APRON! BUT WINDGATE TURNS THE TABLES, SHIFTING THE MOMENTUM HIMSELF WITH AN APRON SNAP SUPLEX! BOTH COMPETITORS FALL TO RINGSIDE! WINDGATE FAVORS HIS BACK, BUT MYLES FAVORS THE BACK OF HIS HEAD! BOTH COMPETITORS LOOK TO BE DOWN AND OUT AS THE REFEREE COUNTS!
Referee: ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE! SIX!
Persephone: I better not have sat through this mostly boring match just for it to end in a count out…actually, that’ll get things over with quicker. Let it end in a count out! :blessed:
Referee: SEVEN! EIGHT! NINE! TE-
James Peters: OH! BARELY, JUST BARELY, BOTH COMPETITORS BEAT THE COUNT OF TEN FROM THE REF!
Persephone: :noah:
James Peters: BOTH COMPETITORS USE THE OPPOSITE CORNERS TO ASSIST THEMSELVES BACK UP! WINDGATE IS JUST A BIT QUICKER THAN MYLES AND GOES FOR A RUNNING CORNER SPEAR! BUT MYLES SIDESTEPS, MAKING WINDGATE’S FACE COLLIDE WITH THAT MIDDLE TURNBUCKLE! WINDGATE STAGGERS BACK INTO THE ARMS OF MYLES, WHOSE MAYBE LOOKING FOR A GERMAN SUPLEX! BUT WINDGATE STOPS THAT FROM HAPPENING WITH A STIFF BACK ELBOW! JUSTIN REACHES BACK, GRABBING MYLES IN A THREE-QUARTER FACELOCK! AND NOW WINDGATE PLANTS HIM WITH THE SLICED BREAD VERSION OF RUN IT UP!! THE COVER IS MADE!
ONNNNNEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWOOOOOOOOOO!!
THHHHRRRREEEEEEE-
Rich Russillo: I THOUGHT THE MATCH WAS OVER RIGHT THEN AND THERE! BUT MYLES GETS HIS FOOT ON THE BOTTOM ROPE! WINDGATE DRAGS MYLES TO MIDDLE OF THE RING NOW, GONNA GO FOR THAT NO X-SCAPE SUBMISSION MANEUVER AGAIN! BUT MYLES QUICKLY TURNS WINDGATE TO BOTH SHOULDERS ON THE MAT!
ONNNNNEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWOO-
Rich Russillo: JUSTIN KICKS OUT AND BOTH HURRY BACK TO THEIR FEET! MYLES ATTEMPTS A PUMP KICK! BUT WINDGATE CATCHES IT, SPINS MYLES AROUND, CATCHING HIM NOW WITH A SUPERKICK, WHICH GETS FOLLOWED BY A SPINNING BACKFIST! MYLES FALLS DOWN TO THE MAT AND WINDGATE TAKES THIS OPPORTUNITY TO CLIMB UP THE TOP TURNBUCKLE! BUT MYLES HAS ENOUGH RING IQ TO ROLL TO THE OUTSIDE! THAT DOESNT BOTHER WINDGATE AS HE SPLASHES DOWN ON MYLES WITH A CROSSBODY!
James Peters: OR SO HE ATTEMPTED! MYLES MOVED OUT OF THE WAY! WINDGATE WENT GUT FIRST ON THE BARRICADE! MYLES SLIDES BACK INTO THE RING, BUYING HIMSELF SOME TIME TO RECOVER! WINDGATE TRIES TO FOLLOW, BUT HES MUCH SLOWER IN THAT ENDEAVOR HAVING JUST GOTTEN THE WIND TAKEN OUT OF HIS SAILS! MYLES KICKS THE MIDDLE ROPE TO CREATIVELY LOW BLOW HIS OPPONENT, WHO HE PULLS INTO THE RING IN A SUPLEX POSITION! MYLES HOISTS HIM UP AND BRINGS HIM DOWN WITH A FALCON’S ARROW! MYLES HOOKS THE LEG FOR A COVER!
ONNNNNEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWOOOOOOOOOO!!
THHHRRRREEEE-
Rich Russillo: KICKOUT!!! WINDGATE KICKS OUT! BUT HE MIGHTA CAUGHT MYLES WITH A PUNCH AS HE THREW THAT ARM UP IN THE AIR! MYLES FAVORS HIS NOSE, WHICH BLOOD ONCE AGAIN BEGINS TO POUR OUT FROM, REMINISCENT OF EARLIER! MYLES ROLLS OUT TO THE APRON, CLUTCHING HIS NOSE! BUT I DON’T THINK HE NOTICES WINDGATE, WHO SLINGSHOTS HIMSELF OVER THE TOP ROPE IN ATTEMPT OF DTX!!
James Peters: MYLES SHOWS POWER AS HE HOLDS WINDGATE UP, USING HIS FREE HAND TO HOLD ON TO THE MIDDLE ROPE! WINDGATE GETS PLACED ON THE APRON BEFORE GETTING HAMMERED BY MYLES’ FIST! WINDGATE DROPS OFF THE APRON STUNNED, BUT HE TRIPS UP ON MYLES, PULLING HIS LEG OUT OF FROM UNDER HIM! THE BACK OF MYLES’ HEAD BOUNCES OFF THE APRON, WHICH IS THE HARDEST PART OF THE RING! BUT WINDGATE PULLS HIM DOWN TO RINGSIDE BEFORE LANDING A SITOUT FACEBUSTER, THAT ISNT GONNA DO MUCH GOOD FOR HIS NOSE! MYLES GETS ROLLED BACK INTO THE RING!
Persephone: And hopefully they’re gonna look to wrap this up, so we can ROLL on with this show…
Rich Russillo: WINDGATE CLIMBS TO THE ROPE, EYEING UP MYLES FOR…X-FACTOR!! THE SHOOTING STAR PRESS…DOESN’T CONNECT AS MYLES GETS THE KNEES UP- BUT THERE’S AN INSIDE CRADLE FROM WINDGATE!
ONNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
THHHHHRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
Persephone: WAS THAT A THREE?!
Rich Russillo: NO, BUT THEY COULDA FOOLED ME! MYLES BARELY KICKS OUT IN THE NICK OF TIME! BUT NOW JUSTIN LOCKS IN NO X-SCAPE, THE MOVE HE’S ATTEMPTED JUST ABOUT ALL MATCH! IS MYLES GONNA TAP?! IS MYLES GONNA TAP?!
Persephone: Please!
James Peters: ALL SIGNS BEGIN TO POINT TO YES AS MYLES SLOWLY BEGINS TO FADE! THE HAND OF MYLES RAISES UP IN THE AIR, ALMOST CONSIDERING A TAPOUT! BUT NO, MYLES IS GONNA TRY TO GRIT THROUGH THE SUBMISSION AND CRAWL OVER TO THE ROPES, BUT WILL HE MAKE IT IN TIME BEFORE HE DOES FADE?!
Rich Russillo: IM SURE THATS THE SAME QUESTION MYLES IS ASKING HIMSELF RIGHT ABOUT NOW AS HES FINGERTIPS AWAY FROM REACHING THE ROPES, BUT WINDGATE! WINDGATE FURTHER WRENCHES BACK ON THAT HOLD! MYLES FINGERS ARE SLIPPING OFF THE BOTTOM ROPE, THE EYES ARE CLOSING!!!
James Peters: BUT IN ONE LAST GASP EFFORT, MYLES GETS HIS HAND ON THE BOTTOM ROPE! THE REFEREE PULLS WINDGATE AWAY, TRYING TO CREATE SEPERATION! WINDGATE GOES BACK IN AFTER MYLES, WHO FIGHTS BACK WITH FOREARM STRIKES, THROWING EM RIGHT IN THE CENTER OF THE RING NOW! BUT WINDGATE SUPERKICKS MYLES RIGHT IN THE KNEE, BRINGING HIM TO A KNEEL! AND NOW WINDGATE REPEATEDLY SUPERKICKS THE FACE OF MYLES! WINDGATE RUNS OFF THE SET OF ROPES IN FRONT OF MYLES NOW!
Rich Russillo: BUT MYLES REELS HIM BACK IN BY THE BACK OF HIS TIGHTS- ONLY TO GET CAUGHT WITH ANOTHER KNEELING SUPERKICK FOR HIS TROUBLES, TONIGHT HAS NOT BEEN A GOOD NIGHT FOR MYLES’ HEAD! WINDGATE RUNS OFF THE ROPES SUCCESSFULLY THIS TIME- BUT GETS CAUGHT WITH A JUMPING KNEE FROM MYLES, WHO I THINK IS DONE PLAYING AROUND AS HE ATTEMPTS DE FACTO! BUT THE MOVE GETS COUNTERED INTO A VICTORY ROLL FROM WINDGATE!
ONNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
TWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
THHHHHRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
(DING! DING! DING!)
Bella Braxton: HERES YOUR WINNER…JUSTIN WINDGATE!!
(‘High All The Time’ by 50 Cent plays to a thunderous reaction from the crowd, some shocked with Windgate’s victory Myles, even Windgate to an extent as he gets his hand raised by the referee, Myles looks on from the corner, slumped up against the bottom turnbuckle.)
James Peters: WHAT A MATCH BETWEEN THESE TWO COMPETITORS, ENDING WITH JUSTIN WINDGATE MAYBE PULLING A RABBIT OUT OF A HAT WITH THAT SURPRISE ROLL UP, UNDOUBTEDLY BUILDING MOMENTUM TOWARDS HIS CONFRONTATION WITH DRAKE KING! BU- OH MY GOD! FROM BEHIND, MINERVA WITH AN RUNNING ELBOW TO THE BACK OF WINDGATE’S HEAD!
(‘High All The Time’ cuts off and is replaced with defeating boos from the audience, who aren’t happy with Minerva’s uncalled for attack after the match.)
Rich Russillo: I MEAN, YOU HAD TO EXPECT THIS, NEW EDEN HAVEN’T ALWAYS BEEN THE MOST HONORABLE GROUP! BUT THEY’VE CERTAINLY BEEN A MORE BRUTAL ONE AS MINERVA LAYS INTO WINDGATE WITH STOMPS AND STRIKES!
James Peters: THIS IS JUST A MUGGING! MINERVA PULLS WINDGATE UP TO HIS FEET BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO DROP HIM WITH ATLAS FALL- BUT WINDGATE BEGINS TO FIGHT BACK, MUCH TO THE HAPPINESS OF THE THIS CROWD!
Rich Russillo: WELL, THEY BETTER DIE BACK DOWN AGAIN BECAUSE MYLES IS ON THE ATTACK NOW, BLINDSIDING WINDGATE AND THE TWO JUST PUT THE BOOTS TO THE NUMBER ONE CONTENDER!
(‘Cold War’ by Hans Zimmer plays, somehow making the boos even louder as the World Champion in Drake steps out from behind the curtain, holding a wide smile on his face, making you want to punch him in it, as he slowly strolls his way down the ring, not in a particular rush as Windgate continues to be mauled.)
James Peters: DRAKE KING IS JUST TAKING HIS DAMN TIME TO HIT THE RING AS MYLES PUTS WINDGATE UP IN A CANADIAN RACK! DEVIL’S TOUCH SUPERKICK FROM MINERVA CONNECTS BEFORE MYLES DROPS HIM WITH A DDT! PANDORA’S KISS CONNECTS!
Rich Russillo: WINDGATE IS BARELY RESPONSIVE AS BOTH NEW EDEN MEMBERS HOLD HIM UP FOR DRAKE KING, WHO FINALLY ENTERS THE RING! DRAKE’S DEMEANOR SWITCHES TO ONE OF ANGER BEFORE RUNNING OFF THE ROPES!
James Peters: GUILLOTINE! THE SICK KICK CONNECTS ON JUSTIN WINDGATE, WHO’S NOT MOVING! NEW EDEN HAS CERTAINLY MADE A STATEMENT TONIGHT!
(‘My Brother (the Dragonslayer)’ by Shiro SAGISU plays while all three stand over the fallen Windgate, having sent a message to the challenger as the camera fades to black, the boos of the audience being highly prevalent. From there, Voltage fades out.)
(The camera opens backstage to Danny Tanner who seems to be in a great mood now knowing he’s facing Donovan Duke at Bloodsport for the 24/7 contract without even competing in an actual match yet. He’s not even affected by Shane Gates trying to bully him last week. As he continues to walk, he sees Woogieman who is SURROUNDED by bitches. Danny just looks shocked and confused about how Woogieman does it so effortlessly. Danny takes a deep breath before approaching them. The bitches see Danny and just gloss over him immediately giving their attention back to Woogie before Danny finally speaks up.)
Danny Tanner: Woogieman! Big fan man! Hopefully I can be around something like this one day. I mean other than titles, it’s my dream to have the attention of ladies like this on me!
Woogieman: Well you’re on a good path. You have a match for the 24/7 contract at Bloodsport without even competing in a match yet. They obviously see something in you and it was very brave of you to go out there and accept Donovan’s challenge. It was pretty impressive how quickly you stepped up to take on such a big match, and now you have to prove that you deserve the opportunity and make the best of it. Understand?
(Danny is nodding, although his attention is on the females. He is mesmerized by the fact one of them has a striking resemblance to Hikari, and the other one is blonde like Andrea.)
Danny Tanner: When are THEY going to see something in me? That’s what I want to know, it’s like the ladies here just glance over me or look straight past me as if I don’t exist. You though? They are all over you, being all flirtatious and what not. l what am I chopped liver? I’m going to hold onto the 24/7 contract soon! I will not make an ass out of myself once Bloodsport comes around. I know I have a lot of doubters and people who don’t think I deserve it or they deserve it over me. I’m going to show them that they are wrong, though. Donovan said he would face anyone, and I made sure that person was going to be me.
Woogieman: Hey man, let it all fall into place. You have bigger things to worry about. That 24/7 contract can sway all that in eventually and that’s what you should be focused on. You think this happened to me overnight? Well of course it did. I’m Woogieman but that’s beside the point. Not everyone is this lucky but you might be considering what you got going on at Bloodsport. So I hope you mean what you are saying because it’s easy to speak on it but harder to actually act on it. I respect the integrity though. I wanna see it more often though. I saw what Shane did to you last week and if you do want these females to fall in line you can’t be getting punked around like that, you have to input your will! You have to show not only these ladies all over me that you aren’t a punk but the rest of this roster or you’ll continue to be treated like one, understand? Put your foot do-
(Suddenly someone interrupts and it’s none other than Shane Gates who is obviously upset about Danny capitalizing on an opportunity without even stepping foot in an EAW ring yet)
Shane Gates: You have to be kidding me! This fucking virgin gets a shot to compete for the 24/7 contract before me? I work my ass off night in and night out and this is who they reward for an opportunity? Captain Charisma should have stepped in and stopped you from accepting Donovan’s challenge because it’s obvious you aren’t ready, you flabby bastard. I mean what kind of name even is that?!? Was what I did last week not enough to scare you? Do I have to make sure you can’t compete at Bloodsport at all? A matter of fact I think you should tell them that you want to give your opportunity to me!
Danny Tanner: Hey don’t hate the playa, hate the game man! Donovan said ANYONE and I stepped up to the plate and called my shot. It’s just how life works out sometimes. You heard what CC said about me last week. He sees potential in me and that’s not my fault he doesn’t see it in you. All the muscle in the world doesn’t mean you are good at what you do. So I won’t be telling anyone anything! The opportunity was there for anyone to take and I got it. You’re just a muscular idiot. All that muscle and yet you are still so feminine complaining about opportunities not being given to you. You have been here long enough to know how this goes already Mr.Blayde. I bet you didn’t try to punk anyone else when they took an opportunity you “Deserved” and you aren’t going to punk me anymore either! I’m a man! My mom reminds me everyday on the phone!
(Shane Gates looks in disbelief knowing this is the same kid he punked last week. Now all of a sudden he’s talking back to him. The disbelief quickly turns to anger again as he grabs Danny Tanner by his collar looking to repeat the same actions as last week. He wants to embarrass Danny again.)
Shane Gates: That’s real funny coming from someone I treated like my bitch last week. You get around Woogieman and think you are the man now? I told you last week I don’t take disrespect lightly and you saw what I did to you, do you want that again? This time it’ll be worse. It won’t be a toss into some equipment, I will beat your ass this time! Don’t you dare disrespect me just because some females are around. I will embarrass you in front of them. Do you understand that? You want their attention so badly you’ll get it but it won’t be the attention you want so watch how you speak to me kid!
Danny Tanner: Please get off of me before I do something that embarrasses you in front of these beautiful women. You lost earlier tonight to Lucas Johnson because a doll appeared on the stage and scared you. Let’s not make your night worse. I just told you I’m not going to be punked anymore. Last week was the first and last time something like that happened. Now before I get out of character I suggest you unhand me, you heathen! Before you get put in a sticky situation!
(Woogieman and his bitches are clearly confused by that statement, all going :roman:, yet they seem like they are interested, impressed even that Danny is standing up for himself like this and not allowing Shane to walk all over him and take advantage just because he’s a rookie)
Shane Gates: :comeagain: You can’t even threaten people correctly. Do you think I’m supposed to be afraid or something? You don’t look like you can hurt a fly let alone a grown man like myself. I mean look at you then look at me. I am everything Voltage should want in an Elitist yet they give this moron an opportunity to join the roster and accept matches he has no business competing in. He doesn’t even know how to talk to these worthless bitches without his stomach tying in a knot but it’s you who’s going to make this a sticky situation? If anything is going to make something sticky it’s me! By the way, your mom lied to you! I mean how can she know what a man is if she doesn’t even have on-
(Danny doesn’t let Shane finish his sentence before head butting him and knocking him to the floor and shocking everyone around him including himself. Shane is holding his nose in disbelief and you can see Danny is proud of his work after being punked last week by the same Elitist he brushes himself off before speaking again)
Danny Tanner: No one talks about momma Tanner and gets away with it! I told you to unhand me before things got ugly!
(Woogieman looks very impressed and not only that but so do his bitches for Danny standing up for himself and not allowing himself to get punked again by Shane Gates. Woogie really looks like he respects what Danny just did; he even looks like a proud dad watching his son hit his first home run)
Woogieman: :wow: man that was impressive you should be proud, how about we leave this alone and you come hang out with us all.
(Danny Tanner shocked by what he just heard immediately gets excited he finally has the attention he’s always wanted by females and just got invited to go hang with them and of course he isn’t going to let this opportunity get by)
Danny Tanner: Really?? Sure, okay I’ll join you guys!
(Two of the females go and latch themselves onto Danny’s arms and the rest remain on Woogieman as he gives a nod meaning “let’s get out of here” the group walks away leaving Shane behind still confused on what happened as the camera fades)
(Voltage returns as Bella Braxton is shown inside the ring.)
Bella Braxton: LADIES AND GENTLEMAN, THE FOLLOWING CONTEST IS A SINGLES MATCH AND IT IS SCHEDULED FOR ONE FALL!
(Crowd repeats “ONE FALL!” as the lights dim.)
(‘In My Bones’ by The Score begins to play as Raven Roberts is cheered onto the stage by the fans. The stage lights decorate Raven’s entrance as she smiles and cracks her neck in preparation for her match.)
Bella Braxton: INTRODUCING FIRST, WRESTLING OUT OF LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKYYYYY!!!! WEIGHING IN AT 134 POOOUUNNDSSSSS, RAVVVEEEEENNNNNN ‘THE BIRD OF PREYYYYYY’ ROBERTSSSSSSSSS!!!!
(Crowd cheers excitedly as Raven gets atop the second turnbuckle and poses.)
Persephone: Hillbillies man. Can’t stand these people. Can Jamie No’Hara make his way down to the ring so we can get this match over and done with?
Rich Russillo: No’Hara :mjlol2:
James Peters: Well, no matter how Persephone feels, Raven Roberts is one of the most exciting wrestlers on this roster and one of EAW’s most decorated active elitists. A special talent for absolutely sure and she’ll look to put that on display against a Voltage bound ace tonight!
Persephone: “no matter how Persephone feels” :wtf:
(Raven readies herself inside the ring as ‘Kashmir’ by Led Zeppelin (Paratus) begins to ring throughout the arena as Jamie O’Hara enters to an also welcoming reception. Jamie slowly walks onto the stage, still appearing satisfied having attacked Myles earlier in the evening.)
Bella Braxton: AND HER OPPONENT, WRESTLING OUT OF LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIAAAA!!! WEIGHING IN AT 190 POOOUUNNDSSSS, JAMIEEEEEEEEEEE ‘THE ACEEEEE’ O’HARAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!
James Peters: One of the greatest of all time, it’s hard not to feel blessed when we’re able to watch this man wrestle and still do it at the highest level. A once in a lifetime talent, one that will never be replicated. Jamie O’Hara.
Persephone: Did you just cream your panties saying that??
Rich Russillo: You know, while all that is true, James, Jamie’s future for the first time in a long while is uncertain. Where does he go from here? He’s on Voltage now and has a fresh start to make season 15 the season of Jamie O’Hara, but he’s got a tough challenge ahead of him tonight after that trifling Pain For Pride loss.
Persephone: Yeah, he’s a loser. Lost to Crapsidy Heart and tapped too, didn’t he say he’d never tap? He’s got something to prove to himself AND us tonight.
(The crowd goes absolutely crazy as Jamie pops his collar and stoically makes his way down the ramp. Once getting in the ring, he poses on the ropes and looks down at Raven Roberts. He throws his jacket down to ringside officials and the referee calls for the bell.)
(DING! DING! DING!)
James Peters: And here we go! Jamie O’Hara and Raven Roberts are live and in color! Both competitors circle one another, looking for the best angle of attack, and Jamie grabs both wrists of Raven, pressuring her back into the turnbuckles. Jamie uses his head to push on Raven’s chin, keeping her suspended in the corner, before using all of the referee’s five count. A clean break from Jamie O’Hara, who points at Raven and invites her to engage again.
Rich Russillo: A clean break there, but don’t think for a second Jamie wasn’t gonna use all of that five count and show Raven that he came to play. Raven resets and the two meet in the middle again. Jamie once more rabs the wrists, but Raven turns him around and pushes him back into the corner. Now Raven keeps an elbow firmly planted on the face of O’Hara, using the entirety of her five count as well! Raven now with a clean break-
Persephone: YES! Smack that Aussie in the face!
Rich Russillo: Well, she faked a slap as O’Hara flinched! Raven smiles and points to the center of the ring. O’Hara acknowledges with a nod as well and smiles as he comes charging towards the center! They lock up in a collar and elbow tie-up, where Jamie launches a knee up to the chest of Raven! ‘The Ace’ comes up the middle with a knee to the solar-plexus and now a boot to the chest! That one sent Raven Roberts into the turnbuckles! Her ner snapped back and Jamie comes charging in with another jumping knee strike in the corner!
James Peters: Wait! Raven evades that one and sends Jamie knee first into the turnbuckle! He clutches at his right knee, Raven now with a chop block that puts Jamie down to a knee! She tries to come off the ropes with a quick back elbow- Jamie ducks under that attempt and grabs a hold of Raven! Now going for the dragon suplex! But Raven was able to run herself to the ropes and hold on before Jamie could dump her on her head!
Persephone: Jamie kicks the feet out from under Raven, took her down like the dumbass she is! She kicks the bum knee of No’hara! Jamie grabs his right leg and backs up from Raven! She now goes for a codebreaker- JAMIE CATCHES HER IN MID-AIR! GUESS ALL THOSE DUMBASS YOGA LESSONS WITH HIS UGLY ASS WIFE PAID OFF!
James Peters: You’re right.. about some of that! That core strength of O’Hara is something else! He catches Raven mid-codebreaker and drops her to the canvas- WAIT! SINGLE UNDERHOOK! JAMIE DROPS RAVEN ON THE CANVAS WITH THAT SINGLE UNDERHOOK BRAINBUSTER! WOW! Raven is grabbing the top of her head and grinding her teeth in pain! She slides under the bottom rope and out to the floor, she’s doing anything she can to avoid this O’Hara onslaught!
Rich Russillo: Jamie doesn’t care! He wants a statement win tonight! Wastin no time and heading out to the apron! HE CHARGES WITH A RUNNING PENALTY KICK TO THE FACE OF RAVEN- NO! SHE DUCKS UNDER IT AND GRABS THE BOOT OF JAMIE AS HE GOES FLYING BY! SHE TRIES TO YANK HIM OFF THE APRON, BUT HE NAILS HER WITH THE OTHER BOOT! Raven just got rocked by the boot of Jamie- WAIT, WHAT HE IS DOING?!? JAMIE O’HARA IS SETTING UP FOR AN AERIAL ATTACK!
Persephone: Raven makes her way to the other side of the ring! FINALLY! A FUCKING HALFWAY INTELLIGENT COMPETITOR! She’s doing anything possible to stay away from Jamie right now, or perhaps luring him out because Jamie is following her in this game of cat and mouse! Jamie is now making his way towards Raven again- she kicks Jamie’s knee again as he nearly buckles this time! Now throwing O’Hara over her hip! HE SMACKS AGAINST THE FLOOR AFTER GETTING TOSSED BY RAVEN LIKE A LITTLE KID!
James Peters: Raven managed to throw Jamie to the floor and he’s wincing in pain as he’s getting back to his knees! Raven eyes her opportunity and SHE’S GONNA TAKE IT! RAVEN ROBERTS STORMS TOWARDS O’HARA WITH A HURRICANRANA THAT SLAMS JAMIE’S HEAD INTO THE BARRICADE! HE FALLS BACK ON THE FLOOR AND HIS EYES ROLL INTO THE BACK OF HIS HEAD! RAVEN ROBERTS HAS JAMIE O’HARA SHOCKED RIGHT NOW!
Rich Russillo: Raven needs to get Jamie back in the ring and capitalize on this wave of momentum that’s crashing her way right now!
James Peters: Crashing down her way and devastating the village of ‘The Ace’!
Persephone: You’re crashing my IQ with that corncake ass comment.
Rich Russillo: Raven rolls Jamie under the bottom rope and slides in after him, trying to get Jamie to his feet- BANG! JAMIE WITH A LARIAT! WAIT, THAT ONE DIDN’T DROP RAVEN! SHE’S ON HER FEET AND COMES CHARGING FORWARD ONCE MORE! JAMIE SPINS AND TAKES THE HEAD OFF THE SHOULDERS OF RAVEN ROBERTS WITH ANOTHER LARIAT! THAT ONE DEFINITELY PUT HER LIGHTS OUT! JAMIE SHOWING US ALL JUST HOW DECISIVELY HE CAN TURN MATCHES AROUND WITHIN THE BLINK OF AN EYE!
James Peters: Now it’s O’Hara in control! Jamie calls for Raven to get to her feet, he feels the end coming! Raven is stumbling up using the turnbuckles, SHE TURNS AROUND AND WALKS RIGHT INTO A SLINGBLADE FROM JAMIE O’HARA! JAME PLANTS THE NECK OF RAVEN ROBERTS INTO THE CANVAS AND HE SCREAMS IN ADRENALINE AS HE GETS BACK TO HIS FEET! THIS IS VINTAGE O’HARA, FOLKS!
Persephone: Vintage O’Hara? He’s always been a nerd and still is, that’s what vintage. Anybody would have been able to finish Raven five minutes ago. Jamie’s old ass is still fighting through the pain of doing a…oh..my back creaked just saying it..a slingblade!!! Shutup and pin her already Jamie, jesus.
Rich Russillo: It appears as if Jamie has just that on his mind! He’s dragging Raven up, wait! RAVEN POPPED UP INTO A GUILLOTINE AND LOCKED BODY SCISSORS AROUND JAMIE! SHE’S GOT A GUILLOTINE IN AND IS TRYING TO SUBMIT O’HARA!
Persephone: YES! JAMIE O’TAPPA, SUBMIT HIM AND MAKE HIM TAP AGAIN!
Rich Russillo: SHE’S TUGGING AT THE NECK OF JAMIE, AS IF SHE WANTS TO BREAK HIS NECK AND CHOKE HIM AT THE SAME TIME! JAMIE IS STUMBLING, BUT JUST BARELY ABOUT TO FIND THE ROPES! JAMIE GRABS THE TOP ROPE, WAIT, HE’S NOT WAITING FOR THE REFEREE! HE PRIES THE ARMS OF RAVEN FROM HIS NECK AND IS ABLE TO LIFT HER INTO THE AIR! MODIFIED BRAINBUSTER FROM O’HARA!
James Peters: JAMIE WAS IN DEEP TROUBLE THERE, BUT HE MANAGED TO FIND HIS WAY OUT WITH A STIFF VERSION OF THAT UNDERHOOK BRAINBUSTER! Now both competitors are struggling to their knees, but Raven looks to be the worse for wear!
Persephone: She just got dropped on her skull, what did you expect!?
James Peters: Jamie just narrowly able to settle his movements and steady his stance. He grabs Raven and tries to throw her with a suplex! He’s pulling, but Raven is holding onto the ropes and won’t let O’Hara suplex her! Raven Roberts is resisting with every shred of power she’s got left, her movements are labored and she’s wildly shaking her head, just not allowing Jamie to- CRACK!
Persephone: JAMIE WITH A BOOT TO THE SKULL OF RAVEN! HE DRILLED A HOLE THROUGH HER HEAD WITH THAT ONE! NOW O’HARA COMES OFF THE ROPES AGAIN AND DROPKICKS THE BACK OF RAVEN, SENDING HER FACE FIRST INTO THE ROPE AND SMACKING AGAINST THE CANVAS! FINALLY!!
Rich Russillo: JAMIE IS MAKING RAVEN PAY RIGHT NOW! TWO HUGE KICKS AND THAT SECOND ONE APPEARED TO REALLY TAKE THE LIFE OUT OF RAVEN! NOW LIFTING HER BODY UP AGAIN AND POSITIONING HER SITTING UP ON THE SECOND ROPE!?! WHAT IN GOD’S NAME!!! JAMIE COMES OFF THE ROPES AND SLIDES UNDER THE BOTTOM ROPE, GERMAN SUPLEX ON HIS WAY OUT OF THE RING!!! A SLIDING GERMAN SUPLEX THAT SNAPPED RAVEN ROBERT’S BODY TO THE CANVAS!!! OH MY!!!
Persephone: BEAT THAT DUMB BITCH UP! SHE WAS ALWAYS THE WEAK LINK OF FIRE AND ICE! THAT’S WHY SHE JUST GOT SUPLEXED TO HELL BY JAMIE NO’HARA!!!!!!!!
James Peters: Man, what a move from Jamie! He slid under that rope and drove Raven down with a suplex and these two are completely exhausted! But Jamie’s in better condition right now, Raven appears to be down and out! Jamie now back in the ring, grabbing the legs of Raven, perhaps looking for his own submission- WAIT! Raven with an upkick to the face of Jamie! O’Hara now fires a kick to Raven, who rolls out of the way and gets back to her feet! HERE COMES RAVEN!
Rich Russillo: A CLOTHESLINE FROM RAVEN THAT DROPS JAMIE! HE GETS BACK TO HIS FEET AND RAVEN MEETS HIM A BOOT TO THE FACE! JAMIE NOT SO QUICK TO GET UP THIS TIME, EXTREMELY LABORED MOVEMENTS FROM O’HARA! HE GETS BACK UP ONE LAST TIME! NOW RAVEN OFF THE ROPES AND TAKES O’HARA DOWN HARD WITH A THESZ PRESS! UNLOADING A FURY OF PUNCHES AND ELBOWS TO THE DOWNED ‘ACE’!!
James Peters: RAVEN ROBERTS UP TO HER FEET NOW, YELLING TO THE CROWD! CALLING FOR THEM TO RALLY HER ON! THIS CROWD IS ON ITS FEET, ALL CHANTING AND CLAPPING FOR RAVEN ROBERTS! RAVEN RUNS TOWARDS THE ROPES AND ATTEMPTS THE LIONSAULT!-
Persephone: JAMIE SHOVED HER OVER THE TOP ROPE! RAVEN FALLS ONTO THE APRON NAND OUT TO THE FLOOR! SHE HIT HARD AS SHE CLUTCHED AT HER SPINE! MAN, GET HER BACK IN THE RING SO THIS SHIT CAN BE FUCKING FINISHED!
James Peters:Your wish doesn’t seem to be coming true because Jamie is heading out to the apron as well! OH BOY, YOU KNOW WHAT HE’S LOOKING FOR! WALKING TO THE RINGPOST, CALLING FOR THE KICK! RAVEN TURNS AROUND AND EATS A PENALTY KICK SQUARE IN THE FACE FROM JAMIE! THAT ONE TURNED HER INSIDE OUT AS SHE HIT THE FLOOR! JAMIE HIT THE KICK THAT TIME! HE’S REELING ON THE APRON, BUT THE CROWD IS WILLING O’HARA ON! THEY LOVE BOTH THESE ELITISTS!
Rich Russillo: Jamie managing to roll Raven back into the ring and get back in himself, man, these two barely have anything left to give! But Jamie seems to have taken back control and now the match may be in the palm of his hand! WHAT IN THE- RAVEN POPS UP AND LAUNCHES A RIGHT HOOK FLUSH ON THE CHEEK OF JAMIE! HOW?!?! HOW IS SHE UP!?! LIKE THE QUEEN OF THE DEAD, RAVEN RISES AND STUMBLES AROUND THE RING, BLEEDING FROM HER MOUTH AFTER THAT KICK!!
Persephone: JAMIE IS ON WOBBLY LEGS, BUT HE COMES BACK WITH A SHARP ELBOW! NOW RAVEN FIRES A SHOT BACK- JAMIE DUCKS UNDER THAT ONE AND DRILLS HER SHOULDERS TO THE CANVAS WITH A SNAP DRAGON SUPLEX!!! LOOK AT JAMIE, HE ROLLED THROUGH!!! HE ROLLED THROUGH AND KEPT HOLD OF RAVEN, LIFTING HER BACK TO HER FEET! SIDE CONTROL FOR JAMIE- OH NO!!! HE LAUNCHES RAVEN IN THE AIR AND TURNS HER ON HER HEAD!!!! ‘GALACTIC BUSTERRRRRR’!!!!! HE HIT IT! DROPPED THAT BITCH ON HER HEAD!
James Peters: HE NAILED THAT ‘GALACTIC BUSTER’ AND RAVEN ROBERTS IS LAID OUT UNCONSCIOUS ON THE CANVAS! JAMIE O’HARA GRABS BOTH LEGS AND HOOKS RAVEN ROBERTS FOR THE COVER! JAMIE O’HARA IS TAKING HOME A HUGE WIN ON VOLTAGE! HERE HE GOES!
ONNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEE!!!
TWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
THRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
…
…
…
Rich Russillo: KICKOUT! SHE KICKED OUT! SHE FREAKING KICKED OUT! NO WAY!!!
Persephone: MAN, FUCK!
James Peters: HOW IN THE LORD’S NAME DID SHE POWER OUT OF THAT ONE! EVEN JAMIE CAN’T BELIEVE IT! SHE SHOULD BE DONE FOR! SHE’S STILL GOT SOME FIGHT IN HER, JAMIE O’HARA THOUGHT IT WAS OVER!
Rich Russillo: This entire arena is speechless!
James Peters: They don’t call him ‘The Ace’ for nothing! He’s already back to it, he won’t let the moment get to him! Jamie grabs Raven by the wrist, she’s trying to fight flimsily, but she can’t summon up the stgrneth! Jamie O’Hara sighs deeply and tries to gather his breath- RAVEN OUT OF NOWHERE, DRAGON SCREW TO THAT PREVIOUSLY INJURED LEG OF JAMIE! SHE TOOK THAT OUT OF JAMIE’S PLAYBOOK AND TARGETED HIS INJURED KNEE! SHE WAS PLAYING POSSUM!
Persephone: Or that was the last gasp of a desperate and fading woman!
Rich Russillo: Raven trying to get to her feet as Jamie gets up on the injured leg! He’s smacking it saying it’s okay, but you know that one hurt him! Jamie is calling for more punishment from Raven, who throws a slow punch at his chin, Jamie just ate it though! Jamie eats it like a tic-tac and calls for more! Raven is getting angry and tries a lariat! JAMIE AVOIDS IT AND TAKES THE BACK! BRIDGING GERMAN SUPLEX FROM JAMIE O’HARA! THAT ONE SENT RAVEN’S WHOLE BODY LIMP! JAMIE IS BRIDGING INTO THE PIN, THIS COULD BE IT!
Persephone: FOOT ON THE ROPE! SHE GOT HER FOOT ON THE ROPE, DAMMIT MAN! THIS ONE WAS ALMOST OVER! DON’T LET UP YOU PALE DORK, FINISH HER!
Rich Russillo: THAT GERMAN SUPLEX GETTING THE COUNT TO THREE SHOWS YOU JUST HOW MUCH DAMAGE THEY’VE TAKEN! ANY MOVE COULD BE FATAL AT THIS POINT! Jamie is on his knees and calling for Raven to get back up, he’s been pushing the action and the tides of this match have favored O’Hara in these last few minutes! Jamie calls for her to get up, but Raven can barely drag herself up. Jamie is now going to position her- WAIT!
James Peters: HE GOT CAUGHT IN A SMALL PACKAGE PIN! JAMIE CAUGHT! RAVEN MIGHT HAVE HIM HERE!!
ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEE!!!
TWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
THRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
Persephone: ANOTHER KICKOUT! AT THE LAST FUCKING SECOND! JAMIE KICKED OUT! LMFAO, HE ALMOST LOST THIS MATCH WITH A QUICK PACKAGE PIN! JAMIE IS SHOCKED, THEY BOTH GET TO THEIR FEET AND TURN TO EACH OTHER! JAMIE TRIES A SHOOT KICK, RAVEN SIDESTEPS AND SWINGS BACK WITH A HEEL KICK TO THE FACE OF JAMIE!!! OH MY GOD ‘THE FACELIFT’ LANDED TO PERFECTION, SHE HIT IT AND JAMIE IS WOBBLING!
Rich Russillo: HOW!!?!? RAVEN JUST TURNED IT AROUND ON THE ACE IN WHAT SEEMINGLY LOOKED LIKE HER DYING SECONDS! NOW HEADING TO THE CORNER! STOMPING HER FOOT AND CALLING FOR THE END! ‘THE TALON’ IS ON THE WAY! RAVEN ROBERTS SOARS ACROSS THE RING-
James Peters: ‘IN EXCELSISSSSSSSSSSS’!!!!! ‘IN EXCELSIS’ TO THE FACE OF RAVEN AS SHE’S DROPPED TO THE CANVAS BY THE DEVASTATING KNEE OF O’HARA!! TOOK HER OUT OF THE SKIES AND RIPPED HER TALONS OFF! HELL, HE MADE A NECKLACE OUT OF THEM TOO! BUT RAVEN ROLLED TO THE OUTSIDE, JAMIE O’HARA CAN’T COVER HER! RAVEN ROBERTS IS ON THE OUTSIDE, JUST BARELY STIRRING ON HER FEET!
Rich Russillo: JAMIE DOESN’T CARE! HE’S GOING CRAZY! JAMIE IS UNLOCKING A NEW LEVEL OF CONVICTION TONIGHT, HE’S GOING TO FLY! JAMIE OFF THE ROPES AND HE LAUNCHES HIMSELF OVER THE TOP ROPE!! TUMBLING DOWN ON RAVN ROBERTS WITH THAT TOPE CON HILO!!! JAMIE O’HARA WITH THE TOPE CON HILO! HOW IS HE STILL DOING THIS!?JUST HOW?!?
Persephone: YES, JAMIE, YES, YOU FUCKING BITCH! FINISH HER HERE AND NOW! THIS IS IT!
James Peters: JAMIE ROLLS RAVEN BACK INTO THE RING! WAIT, HE’S NOT COVERING HER?!
Rich Russillo: JAMIE, WHAT ARE YOU DOING, HE’S JUST SLOUCHED AGAINST THE TURNBUCKLES!
Persephone: ACT AS SMART AS YOU TALK, FUCKING DUMBASS!
Rich Russillo: WAIT-
James Peters: WE KNOW WHY HE AIN’T COVERING HER! HE WANTS TO PUT THE FINISHING TOUCHES ON THIS MONA LISA OF A MATCH! THIS WILL BE A GEM OF A WIN OR JAMIE O’HARA AND HE WANTS TO END IT PERFECTLY!
Rich Russillo: JAMIE O’HARA ASCENDING THE TURNBUCKLES! HE’S ASCENDING THE HEIGHTS OF EAW’S LADDER AND ONCE AGAIN RISING FROM THE ASHES OF HIS DEFEAT! THE PHOENIX OF JAMIE O’HARA LOOKS TO SILENCE RAVEN! JAMIE O’HARA ON THE TOP ROPE, HERE HE GOES!!!!

ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
TWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
THHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
(DING! DING! DING!)
(‘Kashmir’ by Led Zeppelin begins to sound and Jamie O’Hara slowly rises to his feet as his hand is raised in victory.)
Bella Braxton: LADIES AND GENTLEMAN, HERE IS YOUR WINNER, JAMIEEEEEE O’HARRAAAAAAA!!!
Rich Russillo: HE DID IT! ‘THE ACE’ RISES AS RAVEN ROBERTS FALLS TO JAMIE O’HARA! MY GOD, WHAT A WAR! THESE TWO LEFT IT ALL ON THE TABLE!
Persephone: Finally. That match just kept drawing on and drawing on, these two stale mated one another’s mediocrity.
James Peters:…Anyway, man, what an effort on both parts, but this is a huge win for Jamie. A statement victory that he’s not going anywhere and on any given day is one of the best to ever do it. Standing toe to toe with the giants from every era, Jamie does it again tonight with a big victory.
(Jamie O’Hara falls to a knee and smiles, he’s exhausted but satisfied with this win. Raven is laying on the outside, still recovering after that closing sequence.)
James Peters: Jamie O’Hara reopened so many options for his future with a performance like that and just stole the show once more. This man just cannot be stopped.
Persephone: He was at Pain For Pride?
Rich Russillo: I believe what James is saying is that this season looks to be the return of the greatest to have ever laced the boots! ‘The Ace’ rises again!
(Jamie poses on the ropes and points to the crowd as the shot fades to commercial break.)
(Commercial for green hair dye featuring Limmy Monaghan. WARNING: Keep away from children. They might accidentally use it as toothpaste :lupe:.)
(Voltage fades back to ringside, and the fans immediately cheer as James Peters is seen standing inside of the ring next to a huge round object that’s covered by cloth. James has a microphone in his hand, and he waits for the crowd to settle down before finally beginning to speak.)
James Peters: Ladies and gentlemen, in just a matter of moments we’ll have the opportunity to see what stipulation Ms. Extreme and Hikari Kanno will fight under in their Universal Women’s Championship match at Bloodsport! This year we’ll be following tradition, so with that being said, we’re bringing back…
(James removes the cloth from the object, and the crowd explodes.)
James Peters: THE BLOODSPORT WHEEL OF DEATH!!
(The cheering continues, knowing that the Bloodsport wheel has brought tons of unique match stipulations in the past.)
James Peters: First, please welcome the challenger… She is a former Unified Tag Team Champion who managed to win that title in only the second month of her EAW career…. Hikari Kanno!!!
(‘Dream In Drive’ The Oral Cigarettes hits, and the crowd immediately begins booing loudly as Hikari Kanno begins walking out to the stage with a microphone in her hand. She doesn’t look too pleased after Ms. Extreme’s attack on her and Miku Sakai following the distraction that cost IDOL-GUN against New Eden last week, but she continues walking down towards the ring nonetheless, looking directly at the wheel inside of the ring next to James.)
Rich Russillo: Last week didn’t go how Hikari Kanno hoped as IDOL-GUN lost to New Eden, and Ms. Extreme would only add salt to the wound with an attack after the match!
Persephone: Yeah, but it’s not like Camille had a great night either. Both of their nights ended pretty shitty. Watching Camille get beat up by a bunch of simps was pretty funny though :mjlol:.
(Hikari enters the ring, waiting inside of the corner.)
James Peters: And now-
Hikari Kanno: Can we just get this shit over with? Regardless of the stipulation Ms. Extreme’s Championship reign is coming to an end, so just save the grand introduction.
James Peters: :wow: Ok. Please welcome the Universal Women’s Champion, Ms. Extreme!!!
(The crowd explodes as ‘Zombie’ by Bad Wolves hits. Ms. Extreme walks out holding the Universal Women’s Championship, and she has a microphone in her free hand. Ms. Extreme looks directly at Hikari, and she doesn’t look too happy either after IDOL-GUN’s simps put an abrupt end to her match against Drake King, before continuing to attack her afterwards. Ms. Extreme stares a hole into her Bloodsport opponent as she makes her way towards the ring.)
Rich Russillo: Here comes the Universal Women’s Champion! I can’t imagine she’s in the best of moods either, but I’m sure she’s at least a little excited to see what type of stipulation these two will receive for Bloodsport.
Persephone: Eh.. As long as these two get to kill each other I guess.
(As Ms. Extreme enters the ring, she walks right up to Hikari.)
Ms. Extreme: That shit you pulled last week was real fucking funny, but I hope you realize it’s never gonna happen again. You’re fucking dead at Bloodsport.
Hikari Kanno: Me? You mean the simps, right? I didn’t actually do anything, and you’re lucky I didn’t after that shitty attack after our match with New Eden. You deserved to get the shit beaten out of you, and the way it happened was actually pretty fucking funny. IDOL-GUN actually has a dedicated fanbase that doesn’t take shit like that too kindly. Sorry you can’t relate to that, I guess.
Ms. Extreme: I don’t need to rely on a bunch of fucking fans to do my dirty work for me because I’m not a bitch. You had that attack coming, and you’re lucky I didn’t do more, because I *want* to be able to face you at Bloodsport. I want you to actually make it to that show, because I’m gonna fucking kill you, and when I do you won’t have any excuse for it. You clearly have no idea what you’re getting yourself into, Hikari. This wouldn’t be the first time I kicked your ass, and I really don’t care what you’ve done the past seven months. I didn’t win my first World Championship just to lose it on my first defense, and I’m definitely not losing it to you of all people. If having the fans interrupt my matches and attack me is the best you can do then you really made the biggest mistake of your fucking life challenging me for my title Hikari, because I don’t give a shit what stipulation we’re fighting in, you’re not leaving Bloodsport on your own two feet and I’m going to make sure of that.
Hikari Kanno: I’m sure you’ll try your best, but you’re already used to not living up to your promises, so it shouldn’t surprise you one bit when I’m not only leaving Bloodsport on my own two feet, but leaving with that Universal Women’s Championship. The fact that you thought you’d get away with costing IDOL-GUN that match was funny, but you won’t have to worry about fans running in at Bloodsport. All you’ll have to worry about is what comes next after your Championship reign ends quicker than it started. Then you can go right back to doing things the Ms. Extreme way. You know? Getting as close as you possibly can to getting what you want just to trip and fall flat on your face? Maybe you can face me in a rematch at the next major event so you can fail again. Let’s face it, what happened at Pain for Pride was nothing more than an exception to the rule, and after Bloodsport you’ll be right back at square one.
James Peters: :lupe:
(Ms. Extreme and Hikari Kanno get even closer, and it’s clear tensions are beginning to rise after everything that happened in the past few weeks, from Hikari’s attack back at the Draft to the attacks from Ms. Extreme and IDOL-GUN’s simps last week. James Peters is finally forced to intervene, separating the two before they could try to hurt each other.)
James Peters: :whoa: Okay, okay. This isn’t what we’re here for! We still have to find out our stipulation. Now, may one of you please do the honors?
(Both women slowly take their eyes off of each other, looking over at the Bloodsport wheel.)
Hikari Kanno: Go ahead. You’ll be losing your Championship at Bloodsport. Might as well get the opportunity to decide *how* you lose.
(Ms. Extreme glances over at Hikari, before finally walking up to the Bloodsport wheel. She looks at the wheel and all of the stipulations listed, before finally spinning the wheel.)
Rich Russillo: Here we go! Time to find out what stipulation Hikari and Camille will be fighting in!
Persephone: Please be something good. If I have to watch these two fight it better be worth my time.
(The wheel continues to spin, and you can just see the anticipation from the Voltage crowd, waiting to see what stipulation the wheel will land on. Finally, the wheel begins to slow down, before landing on…)
James Peters: SCAFFOLD MATCH!!!
(The crowd explodes after seeing the wheel stop on the Scaffold Match stipulation. Hikari looks a bit surprised, but she quickly accepts the match type.)
Ms. Extreme: :notbad:
James Peters: The last time we had a Scaffold Match in EAW was actually at Bloodsport one year ago. It was a fantastic match between two Elitists that’d go on to become World Champions that season! Let’s take a look.
(James Peters points to the titantron, and suddenly it lights up as both Hikari and Ms. Extreme look towards the stage.)
(RECAP: The video opens to a recap of Darcy May Morgan versus Terry Chambers in the Scaffold Match at Bloodsport 2020. The recap shows the terrifying structure, showing the barbed wire net above the ring, and the scaffold above the net. The recap then shows highlights of the actual match, which started abruptly after Darcy May Morgan attacked Terry Chambers during his entrance. The two would have a huge brawl, and eventually Terry would use a chain and climb up to the top of the scaffold while dragging Darcy up by her ankles. From there the match would really get going as Terry is nearly sent flying off of the scaffold, just like Darcy who is forced to hang onto the edge, before falling down into the barbed wire net. Terry Chambers would try to take Darcy out with a tope con hilo but Darcy would move, causing Terry to fall down into the barbed wire net. Darcy would try to cover Terry from there, but it wouldn’t be enough to get the job done. Darcy would follow this up by throwing everything at Terry, even trying to put Terry in the “Encore” submission, but it wouldn’t work. Instead Terry would manage to put Darcy in “Locked in the Chambers”, forcing Darcy to pass out after her face was pressed against the barbed wire net.)
(The camera fades back to the ring as the recap of Bloodsport 2020’s Scaffold Match continues to play, and Ms. Extreme is seen watching the match very closely, making sure she knows what she’s getting herself into. Hikari Kanno on the other hand..)
James Peters: :krabs:
Rich Russillo: :krabs: HIKARI KANNO JUST GRABBED CAMILLE FROM BEHIND AND SENT HER FACE CRASHING INTO THE BLOODSPORT WHEEL! Hikari Kanno is attacking Ms. Extreme!
(Immediately Hikari Kanno jumps onto Ms. Extreme and begins throwing lefts and rights to the grounded Champion.)
Rich Russillo: MS. EXTREME MANAGES TO ROLL HIKARI ONTO HER BACK, AND NOW SHE’S THE ONE PUNCHING AWAY AT HER CHALLENGER AT BLOODSPORT!
Persephone: Boring. A Scaffold Match is pretty good though. There’s a chance they could fall off the scaffold, miss the barbed wire net and die :drakelike:.
(The two Elitists continue rolling back and forth getting the upper hand, until finally Hikari Kanno gets up, pulling Ms. Extreme back up before sending her out of the ring. In the meantime James Peters rushes back to the commentary table, putting on his headset as he notices what’s going on between the two.)
James Peters: HIKARI KANNO JUST THREW CAMILLE OUTSIDE OF THE RING! I didn’t expect a brawl to erupt here but Hikari attacked Camille from behind while she was watching the recap! Hikari Kanno now exiting the ring- BUT MS. EXTREME SWEEPS HIKARI’S LEG AND CAUSES HER TO FALL BACK FIRST ONTO THE APRON! Hikari drops off of the apron, and Ms. Extreme immediately begins attacking her! It looks like Ms. Extreme may have actually been prepared for a fight tonight-
Rich Russillo: NO! HIKARI GRABS CAMILLE’S LEGS AND TAKES HER DOWN WITH A DOUBLE LEG TAKEDOWN! Both Elitists now are rolling around the ground at ringside trying to get the upper hand once again, AND NOW HIKARI GETS THE UPPER HAND! HIKARI PUNCHES AWAY AT MS. EXTREME- BUT NOW MS. EXTREME GETS THE UPPER HAND, AND SHE STARTS PUNCHING HIKARI HERSELF! NOW HIKARI! NOW CAMILLE-
James Peters: HIKARI PUSHES CAMILLE OFF OF HER! Both Elitists get back up, BUT HIKARI SENDS MS. EXTREME CRASHING INTO THE STEEL STEPS!!! Hikari was able to get the upper hand first, and that allowed her to send Camille into the steps! Hikari now is looking under the ring for something, and this was meant to just be the reveal of their Bloodsport stipulation and instead it turned into so much more!
Persephone: Scissors :dahell:? What is she gonna do with that?
Rich Russillo: Ms. Extreme is trying to get back up- BUT HIKARI KANNO JUST STABBED CAMILLE IN THE LEG WITH THE SCISSORS!!!
Persephone: :notbad: Nevermind then.
James Peters: :lupe: Ms. Extreme is screaming in pain thanks to Hikari stabbing her in the leg with the scissors, but what is she doing now?
(Hikari pulls the scissors out of Ms. Extreme’s leg, before grabbing her by the hair.)
Rich Russillo: HIKARI JUST CUT OFF SOME OF CAMILLE’S HAIR!
(Hikari holds up the piece of hair she cut off with a proud smile on her face, and she gets a mix of cheers and loud boos, with the cheers likely just coming from all of IDOL-GUN’s simps that attended the show.)
James Peters: Ms. Extreme is trying to get back up, and she looks furious! Luckily for her it wasn’t a lot of hair Hikari cut off, but she still stabbed Camille in the leg and disrespected her in a major way, all to add salt to the wound-
Rich Russillo: AND HIKARI DOESN’T LET CAMILLE GET BACK TO HER FEET EITHER! INSTEAD SHE JUST KICKED CAMILLE IN THE HURT LEG!
(With Ms. Extreme grounded once again, Hikari Kanno takes the hair she cut off and shoves it in the Champion’s mouth, causing everyone but IDOL-GUN’s loyal fanbase to continue booing, getting even louder than before.)
James Peters: :lupe: I hope Hikari knows what she’s doing. I don’t think angering Ms. Extreme even more is what she should be doing.
Rich Russillo: James, you do see what Hikari just did to Camille, right? I think Hikari will be fine. We might even see a new Universal Women’s Champion at the end of all this.
Persephone: As long as someone dies. Watching Camille get humiliated was pretty funny, so I guess this wasn’t a complete waste of time.
James Peters: :skip: It wasn’t a waste of time regardless. Now we know what stipulation these two will be fighting in! A Scaffold Match!
(‘Dream In Drive’ plays once again, and the crowd’s reaction stays the same as Hikari Kanno slowly makes her way up the ramp, clearly satisfied with what she’s done. Ms. Extreme is still laid out by the steel steps, bleeding from her leg after that attack. As Hikari makes her way to the back, Voltage fades away from ringside.)
(Voltage fades to one more promotional ad for Bloodsport, where Ms. Extreme faces Hikari Kanno in a Scaffold Match for the Universal Women’s Championship.)
(Voltage comes back from the final commercial break of the night as Bella Braxton is seen at the center of the ring with a smile on her face ready to announce the main event of the night)
Bella Braxton: Ladies and gentlemen, this is your MAIN EVENT!!! And it is a Champion versus Champion match scheduled for…
Crowd: ONE FALL!!!
(‘Cold War’ by Hans Zimmer plays up to the absolutely thunderous boos that resonate throughout the Minute Maid Park. Not long after, Drake King is seen making his way out to the ring with a cold look on his face. He’s dragging the EAW World Championship behind him before stopping at the center of the ring. The disgust from the crowd in attendance still resides in him and will probably continue to reside in him all throughout the Season, shaking his head in pure disappointment. He scowls before turning his attention towards the ring, slowly beginning to make his way down the ramp. At the same time, soaking in the negative reaction that the crowd seems to be giving him with a cold look on his face)
Bella Braxton: Introducing first… residing in The Dead Sea… weighing in at 220 pounds… he is the EAW WORLD CHAMPION!!!!!!!!!!! ‘THE LAST MESSIAH’… DRAKE THE REDEEMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rich Russillo: You can tell how baffled Drake seems to be entering into this match. Not because of the match itself, but what happened earlier in the night to kick off the show. Captain Charisma made the match official, while Minerva defends her National Elite Championship against Chris Elite at Bloodsport, Drake King finds his challenger for the EAW World Championship in the form of Justin Windgate. You saw the look on his face when Captain Charisma actually listened to what Justin had to say, you can tell making his way down the ramp that he is not a happy camper whatsoever.
James Peters: That is something that’s been apparent. But Drake knows he has a job to do, and a match that he cannot afford to lose in the process. Throughout the week he’s considered the opponent that he’s facing in our main event tonight completely below him. He knows well that if there’s a match that he’s going to win, it’s this one. Drake walks in tonight to make sure that it happens, and I don’t think he has a single doubt in mind either.
Persephone: For the first time in forever, I don’t exactly blame him. Sure none of the competitors in this match actually have any sense of talent, but at the same time what can you say about any of the people on the roster? A good majority of them lack character, height, charisma, actual wrestling skill; it’s rough out here. This is a match that someone that we’re forced to call a World Champion should actually win, so let’s get to it.
(Drake stops at the bottom of the ramp, making his way around the ring and going up the steel steps. He grabs onto the ropes and makes his way towards the center, turning around and once again looking at the crowd. The lights are dimmed for Drake’s entrance while a lone spotlight shines on him, but it doesn’t stop the crowd from practically jeering at him, completely drowning out his theme music. Drake looks disappointed entering into the ring before dragging his Championship towards the center of the ring. He completely drops it down to the ground, taking a look around, before making his way towards the corner. The ref picks up his Championship from the center of the ring while ‘Cold War’ fades out from there. The only thing being heard is the loud negative reception from the crowd towards ‘The Last Messiah’)
(The heavy guitar riff of ‘The Only Thing they Fear is You’ by Mick Gordan blasts through the speakers of the arena to practically deafening boos from the arena as well. It has become apparent that the crowd hates both competitors in this match. Coming out from the backstage area, is none other than Ryan Wilson who struts out with the New Breed Championship resting on his shoulder. He has the biggest smirk in the world on his face, circling around the ring while cupping his hand to his ear to hear the negative reaction from the crowd. He’s eating all of this up as he from there begins to make his way down the ramp and to the ring, holding up his Championship high in the air as he does so)
Bella Braxton: And his opponent… from Montréal, Québec, Canada… weighing in at 220 pounds… he is the EAW NEW BREED CHAMPION!!!!!!!!!!! LE ROI DU STRONG STYLE QUÉBÉCOIS… RYAN WILSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rich Russillo: I think you can see that no matter the scenario, the confidence of Ryan Wilson always shines through in every match that he finds himself in. I think it’s been a fairly decent day for Ryan if I do say so myself. He found out the opponent that he’s going to be defending the New Breed Championship against in the form of Alex Myers, and he’s walking into the main event tonight going up against the EAW World Champion of all people. I think the only thing that would make this better for him is if he caps off the night coming out victorious.
James Peters: Ryan has never believed that he wasn’t going to win a match that he’s heading into, it’s an unmatched level of confidence that makes him stand out from the rest. The New Breed Championship was a long time coming for someone like Ryan, who fought through thick and thin to make sure that he got the opportunities he desired. If we could say one thing for certain? He’s not going to let it go for a second. He’s going to make the best out of this title reign and if he wins tonight? Then I don’t see a better way of doing it if you ask me.
Persephone: Oh please, are we talking about the same person? Ryan Wilson is nowhere capable of even competing in main event matches in the first place. That’s kind of disappointing to say considering how long he’s been here for, but somehow he’s managed to make himself a whole other level of garbage, surpassing everyone else. Take it from me, that New Breed Championship is nothing but shit. That multiracial bitch Andre Walker already drove it down to rock bottom and Ryan Wilson is just keeping up the trend. So I find it really hard to believe that he’s going to do anything of significance in this reign.
(Ryan makes his way up the steel steps dramatically before stepping onto the apron. He spreads his arms out raising the New Breed Championship up before entering into the ring with a smile on his face. He makes his way towards Drake and holds out his Championship in front of his face, it is clear, Drake does not care. Ryan makes his way back towards the center of the ring and raises the New Breed Championship in the air once again with both hands, clearly showing pride in holding the Championship. He passes it over to the ref, taking a turn and making his way towards the corner. That cocky demeanor he had making his entrance turning into a serious look on his face as ‘The Only Thing they Fear is You’ fades out and from there the referee checks both of them before signaling for the bell)
(DING! DING! DING!)
Rich Russillo: Here we go, Drake King versus Ryan Wilson; Champion versus Champion. A long awaited rematch for both of them from Clash of Kingdoms, and it looks like both of them are chomping at the bit to get this match underway. Both Drake and Ryan are beginning to make their way towards the ring, possibly looking to start this match off with a feeling out process. Drake and Ryan locking up into a collar-and-elbow tie up, which immediately starts with Ryan moving behind Drake and locking in a waist lock! Drake is trying to find his way out of it, prying Ryan’s grip as much as possible to somehow loosen it and break free. BUT RYAN LIFTS HIM UP INTO THE AIR AND DROPS HIM DOWN TO THE GROUND! Ryan in control transitions the waist lock into a grounded headlock, cinching it in while Drake struggles to escape out at the moment. The New Breed Champion has control so far but I believe it won’t be long before Drake comes back into this match.
James Peters: Drake slowly maneuvering his way out of the hold, TURNING IT INTO A CRUCIFIX PIN! But before the referee can count anything Ryan gets his shoulder up and lets go of the hold! Both of them are slowly getting back up to their feet, patiently waiting for the other to make the next move. They once again look to be moving forward and once again locking up with one another. But look at the disrespect from Ryan Wilson! Ryan drove his knee into the gut of Drake out of nowhere taking him completely off guard! Drake doubles over, while Ryan follows up with an Axe Handle to the back of his head dropping him down to a knee!
Persephone: How are you going to let Ryan Wilson outplay you like that? This is the World Champion that is representing our brand, letting himself get fucked up by an old breed division competitor. That’s it, I’ll admit it, Voltage is unsavable.
Rich Russillo: Ryan picking Drake up by his head, BEFORE LIFTING HIM UP OFF HIS FEET AND GOING FOR A SUPLEX! But before that can happen Drake manages to land on his feet behind Ryan, AND RYAN DOESN’T EVEN GET A CHANCE TO TURN AROUND BEFORE DRAKE CONNECTS WITH A SUPERKICK TO THE BACK OF HIS KNEECAP! Ryan drops down to a knee for a moment while Drake runs forward, gaining momentum! BEFORE GRABBING RYAN BY HIS HEAD AND TAKING HIM DOWN TO THE MAT WITH A BIG RUNNING BLOCKBUSTER! Ryan seeing the situation he’s in, getting too close for comfort in the early going. Ryan retreats out of the ring and takes a breather on the outside in hopes of collecting himself. But I don’t think Drake is going to let that happen, RUNNING THE ROPES AND TAKING RYAN DOWN TO THE MAT WITH A BIG SUICIDE DIVE! Drake isn’t done though, sliding back into the ring while Ryan stumbles back up to his feet trying to recover. BEFORE HE’S TAKEN DOWN BY ONE MORE SUICIDE DIVE BY DRAKE!
James Peters: Drake grabbing him by his head and bringing him back up to his feet, BUT RYAN IS SHOWING SIGNS OF LIFE AS HE PUSHES DRAKE INTO THE BARRICADE! Ryan rolling him back into the ring before jumping up onto the apron, now making his way up to the top rope. Drake is slowly getting himself up to his feet while Ryan balances himself, BEFORE LAUNCHING OFF THE TOP ROPE AND TAKING HIM DOWN TO THE GROUND WITH A FLYING EUROPEAN UPPERCUT!
Persephone: You see, this wouldn’t be happening if Rex McAllister was World Champion :mjcry:. He would’ve held it with honor and glory instead of getting his ass beat by someone that’s obviously below him. But better yet, I’ll take myself as your new EAW World Champion. Thank you very much.
James Peters: I know damn well you haven’t even had a single wrestling match.
Persephone: Who fucking said huh, James? Quite frankly, who the fuck asked?!
Rich Russillo: Drake dragging himself towards the turnbuckle to help himself back up, leaning against the corner to stabilize himself. BUT RYAN RUNS FORWARD AND DOESN’T WASTE ANY TIME SENDING ANOTHER EUROPEAN UPPERCUT TO THE JAW OF DRAKE! Ryan grabbing Drake by the arm and Irish whipping him to the opposite corner, BEFORE RUNNING FORWARD AND GOING FOR ANOTHER! But Drake manages to pull himself out of the way causing Ryan to collide with the corner! Ryan dazed for a moment while he turns around, BUT DRAKE LEAPS UP INTO THE AIR AND TAKES HIM DOWN TO THE MAT WITH A BIG JUMPING NECKBREAKER!
James Peters: Drake manages to get himself back on track for the time being before pulling himself back up to his feet. He knows that whenever he gets the chance, Ryan is going to come back with full force. He knows to make the best out of what he has right here before it goes south for him. Drake making his way over to Ryan and bringing him up to his feet, grabbing him by his arm and sending him towards the ropes! But before he can do that Ryan manages to drop his weight to keep himself in place before turning it around and sending Drake into an Irish whip instead! Drake manages to grab onto the ropes before he rebounds back to Ryan! Ryan making his way over, BUT DRAKE LIFTING HIM OVER HIS HEAD AND DROPPING HIM DOWN ONTO THE TOP ROPE WITH A STUN GUN!
Persephone: It’s about damn time. I have nothing better to do other than watch this shitty match so I better make it worth my time by, you know, actually making it entertaining. But you know what we need?! BLOOD AND GUTS! LET’S GET TO IT NECKBEARDS! MAKE SOMETHING EXPLODE I DON’T CARE WHAT IT IS!
Rich Russillo: Ryan stumbles down to the ground, but is already beginning to bring himself back up to his feet. Drake making his way over though not letting him get any sort of leeway whatsoever in this main event, DRAKE GRABS HIM AND LIFTS HIM UP BEFORE DROPPING HIM DOWN TO THE GROUND WITH A BIG FALCON ARROW! Drake falls into the corner, grabbing onto the ropes and bringing himself up to a seated position on the top rope. He’s in a very precarious position seeming to know what he has to do, BEFORE DRAKE JUMPS OFF THE TOP ROPE LOOKING TO FLY!
James Peters: BUT RYAN SCRAMBLES TOWARDS DRAKE AND PULLS HIM OFF THE TOP ROPE INTO A BACKBREAKER! Drake is squirming around in pain but Ryan brings him right back up and Irish whips him towards the opposite corner, RUNNING TOWARDS HIM AND CONNECTING WITH AN HELLUVA KICK TOWARDS HIS FACE TO KNOCK HIM DOWN TO THE MAT! DRAKE IS FEELING THE EFFECTS AS RYAN ROLLS HIM OVER TO HIS BACK AND HOOKS THE LEGS!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
Persephone: Walmart Jesus gets the shoulder up… hooray…
Rich Russillo: Ryan nodding his head in acceptance knowing that it’s going to take a lot more to keep him down on the mat. Drake is attempting to get back up, planting himself onto a knee and shaking off any pain that he’s been through in this match so far. BUT RYAN ISN’T DONE RUNNING FORWARD AND SENDING A KNEE SHOT FLUSH AGAINST THE BRIDGE OF HIS NOSE! Drake is down on the mat, and just look at the expression on Ryan’s face. He’s looking satisfied with the upper hand that he has at the moment, but he’s thinking about his next move in the process. Ryan making his way out of the ring and standing on the apron, Drake is still down on the mat but it’s not going to be long before he regains stability. Ryan bracing himself and getting ready to execute a maneuver, SLINGSHOTTING THROUGH THE ROPES AND LOOKING TO TAKE DRAKE DOWN TO THE GROUND WITH A SLINGSHOT SPEAR!
James Peters: BUT BEFORE DRAKE CAN DO THAT HE GRABS HIM AND PLANTS HIM DOWN TO THE MAT WITH ‘DAWN OF JUSTICE’! DOUBLE UNDERHOOK ROPE HUNG DDT KNOCKS RYAN WILSON OUT COLD, AND DRAKE IS GOING TO TAKE ADVANTAGE! ROLLING RYAN ONTO HIS BACK AND HOOKING THE LEG FOR A PIN ATTEMPT!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWWOOOO!!!!
TTTTTTHHHHHHRRRRRRRRRRREEEE-
Persephone: What’s wrong with not kicking out? Is it that hard for either of you?
Rich Russillo: RYAN KICKS OUT THIS TIME! Ryan still having some fight left in him, and that’s became apparent to Drake looking down at his splayed out body. Drake brings himself back up to his feet and grabs onto the top rope, carefully watching Ryan from a distance while he gets himself back up to his feet. Ryan leaning against the middle rope in a kneeling position, BUT HE DOESN’T HAVE MUCH TIME TO REACT AS DRAKE STEPS IN AND CONNECTS WITH A SUPERKICK TO THE SIDE OF HIS FACE! Ryan still managed to keep himself up though, shaking off the effects and still bringing himself up to his feet. You can see the look of anger on Drake’s face, STEPPING FORWARD AND CONNECTING WITH ANOTHER SUPERKICK TO THE JAW! Ryan falls back against the ropes so he doesn’t drop back down to the canvas. DRAKE HAS HAD ENOUGH AS HE KICKS HIM IN THE GUT AND GOES FOR ‘ASCENSION’! DOUBLE UNDERHOOK FACEBUSTER!
James Peters: BUT RYAN WITH PURE UPPER BODY STRENGTH USING IT TO LIFT DRAKE OVER HIS HEAD AND DROP HIM DOWN TO THE MAT! Ryan stumbles down to a knee grabbing his head but pounding on the canvas to shake it off. The widened look of shock on Drake’s face is plastered onto him while he stumbles up to his feet. Drake turning around, BUT RYAN OUT OF NOWHERE RUNNING FORWARD WITH A BURST OF ADRENALINE AND DROPPING HIM DOWN WITH A JUMPING DDT! Both of them are down now but it’s Ryan that’s beginning to get himself back up to his feet, but notice that Drake is doing the same and he’s following closely behind. Ryan realizing this, BEFORE TAKING HIS HEAD OFF WITH A NORTHERN LARIAT!
Persephone: And once again, Ryan continues to wipe Drake around the canvas and back. I can’t even find a single source of entertainment from this, it’s just depressing.
Rich Russillo: Ryan falls against the ropes catching his breath, but Drake is already getting back up to his feet. Ryan is making his way towards Drake, but Drake manages to step forward and connects with a side kick towards his gut! Ryan stumbles backwards falling against the ropes once again, ALLOWING DRAKE TO RUN TOWARDS HIM AND SEND HIM OVER THE TOP ROPE WITH A CLOTHESLINE! BUT IT’S RYAN LIFTING DRAKE UP AND DUMPING HIM OVER THE TOP ROPE! But Drake manages to hang on! Drake lands on the apron, before sending a sharp forearm to the face of Ryan! Ryan is forced to stumble backwards while Drake braces himself and gets ready for his next move. DRAKE LEAPING OFF THE ROPES AND GOING FOR A SPRINGBOARD CLOTHESLINE! BUT RYAN MANAGES TO SWEEP DRAKE’S LEGS CAUSING DRAKE TO TUMBLE OFF THE ROPES AND DOWN TO THE OUTSIDE!
James Peters: Drake is on the outside clutching at the ringmat trying to help himself up to hie feet, he knows he doesn’t have much time left before Ryan takes advantage. He’s back up to his feet looking to roll back into the ring, BUT RYAN TAKING FLIGHT LAUNCHING OFF THE APRON AND TAKING DRAKE DOWN AT RINGSIDE WITH A BIG CROSSBODY!
Persephone: Everything you could’ve done, like a nice flip, and you choose a Crossbody.
Rich Russillo: What a move by Ryan to follow up, he knows that he has Drake right where he wants him and is going to continue to take advantage of that for as long as he can. Ryan slowly begins to bring Drake up by his hair, trying to keep the offense he has at the moment keeping a good grip on him. BUT DRAKE GRABS RYAN AND PUSHES HIM HEADFIRST INTO THE RINGPOST!
CRACK!
(Ryan collapses down to the ground clutching at his head. He slams his fists to the mat before opening them to see a crimson red painted on his palms. Drake busted him open, cracking him against the ringpost. Drake simply looks down at him with a cold, damn well maniacal, look on his face. Turning to his left to see the blood of the New Breed Champion dripping down the ringpost)
OONNEE!!
TTWWOO!!
James Peters: Ryan Wilson welcome to Voltage. Look at that maniacal look on his face, no matter his opinion on the over-the-top violent match stipulations that we have; he’s loving every second of this. Drake brings Ryan back up to his feet, LOOKING TO SLAM HIS SKULL AGAINST THE RINGPOST AGAIN! But Ryan is showing signs of life, holding out his hands in front of him to save himself! Ryan stepping back, before connecting with a back elbow to the nose of Drake! Drake stumbles back, as Ryan sends a knee strike to his abdomen! Ryan staggering back once again, BUT RYAN GRABS HIM BY HIS HEAD AND SLAMS HIM INTO THE RINGPOST! AND RYAN ISN’T STOPPING AT ONCE, HE’S CRUSHING DRAKE’S SKULL AGAINST THE RINGPOST REPEATEDLY MAKING HIM JUST AS BLOODY AS RYAN IS RIGHT NOW!
TTHHRRRREEEE!!
FFOOUURR!!
Persephone: NOW WE’RE TALKING! LET THERE BE BLOOD!
Rich Russillo: Ryan finally stops, but I don’t think he’s done with Drake just yet. Bringing him back up to his feet, possibly setting up something huge! DROPPING DRAKE DOWN TO THE GROUND WITH CHEMIN DE CROIX! CRUCIFIX POWERBOMB ONTO THE UNFORGIVING OUTSIDE FLOORING!
(Ryan stumbles sideways and falls against the apron. He grips onto the edge of the apron and pulls himself up, sliding into the ring and dragging himself into a seated position. He looks at the ref and begins to yell at him to continue the count)
FFIIVVEE!!
SSIIXX
James Peters: :lupe: This isn’t a good situation for the World Champion. Drake is slowly beginning to show some signs of life, but a part of me believes that he might not make it up. Will he make it, or is there a slight possibility that Ryan Wilson comes out of this match with a victory via countout?
Persephone: I honestly could care less at this point.
SSEEVVEENN!!
EEIIGGHHTT!!
Rich Russillo: Drake is grabbing onto the barricade, he’s feeling the fatigue but at the same time he needs to slide back into the ring and keep this match going. Look at that smirk through the crimson mask that Ryan has on, he knows that this is the end. And personally a part of me believes that Drake won’t be able to do it either.
NNIINNEE!!
TTEENN!!
…
…
James Peters: BUT DRAKE BARELY MANAGES TO SLIDE INTO THE RING BEFORE THE COUNT CAN FINISH! DRAKE MAKES IT INSIDE AS THE MATCH CONTINUES! AND THE LOOK ON RYAN’S FACE TELLS IT ALL!
(Ryan looks absolutely baffled at what he was seeing. He thought he had Drake down for good, keeping him down long enough for the ten count to finish and for him to be awarded the victory. He slams the mat in anger before looking at the ref, who only shakes his head. Meaning one thing and one thing only, Drake King barely saved his chances in this match)
Persephone: He looks like he just ate a lemon. What a loser.
Rich Russillo: Drake bringing himself up to his feet, looking to advance towards Ryan to somehow save his chances now beginning to sprint towards him! BUT RYAN JUMPS UP AND FLIPS HIM OVER INTO A BIG CANADIAN DESTROYER! Drake is taken down to the mat while Ryan tumbles down to the ground as well, both of these competitors have been through hell but in the end only one can come out victorious. Ryan clutching onto the bottom turnbuckle for dear life, bringing himself up and holding onto the top turnbuckle for leverage. If there’s a chance to capitalize in this match, it’s right now for Ryan Wilson. Possibly getting the biggest win of his career defeating a bonafide Hall of Famer in the form of the EAW World Champion, Drake King. Drake is stirring up, attempting to shake off the wear and tear that he’s been through in this match. Ryan Wilson has the perfect opportunity right here and he sees it, RYAN RUNNING FORWARD AND GOING FOR A RUNNING KNEE STRIKE!
James Peters: ‘GUILLOTINE’! ‘GUILLOTINE’! THE SICK KICK CONNECTS AGAINST THE JAW OF RYAN WILSON COMPLETELY KNOCKING HIM OUT COLD! SHADES OF CLASH OF KINGDOMS HERE AS DRAKE SLOWLY ROLLS RYAN ONTO HIS BACK! DRAKE IS DRAPED OVER RYAN, SHOULDERS DOWN! PIN ATTEMPT! WILL THIS BE THE END OF THE MATCH RIGHT HERE?!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
TTTTTHHHHHRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!
…
…
…
Persephone: :mjcry: I can’t get shit around here.
Rich Russillo: HOW THE HELL?! RYAN WILSON JUST KICKED OUT OF THE ‘GUILLOTINE’! Ryan knows better than to make the same mistake as he did a year ago, but I don’t think Drake is happy about that. Drake looks absolutely baffled, look at him getting up in the ref’s face trying to get a grasp on the situation. He didn’t expect Ryan Wilson to kick out of the finishing move that has kept so many people down for the count time after time again. But I think it’s become apparent that this is a match that Ryan must win. The fatigue on Ryan’s face tells it all but he’s still pushing, he’s still going against admittedly one of the best that Sunday Night Voltage has to offer. And that tells alot about how much this New Breed Championship run means to him.
James Peters: Drake is back up to his feet, he’s attempting to collect himself to the best of his abilities. If there’s one thing that’s undeniable it’s that no matter if he was going to kick out of that or not, Ryan is hurt. If there’s a chance to finish this match for ‘The Last Messiah’, it’s now. Drake falls back into the corner, keeping himself upwards while Ryan slowly begins to show signs of life. Ryan is barely moving his arms but is still attempting to get himself back up to his feet to the best of his abilities. But I don’t think he realizes this, he’s in the perfect position for Drake to capitalize. DRAKE RUNNING TOWARDS RYAN AND GOING FOR ‘JUDGEMENT DAY’! THE CURB STOMP DRILLS RYAN WILSON’S SKULL INTO THE GROUND!
(Drake runs forward but slows down in confusion, before he can go for the ‘Judgement Day’ Curb Stomp; Ryan collapses back down to the ground. Drake is clearly pissed off, putting his hands on his hips and shaking his head in disappointment. The referee makes his way over and checks on Ryan, not getting much of a response out of him)
Persephone: IS HE DEAD?! LET’S FUCKING GO!
Rich Russillo: :lupe: This doesn’t look like such a great situation for Ryan. The referee is continuing to get some sort of life out of the New Breed Champion, BUT DRAKE ISN’T HAVING IT AS HE SHOVES THE REF AWAY! Drake does a give a fuck, he wants to finish off Ryan properly and he’s going to stop at nothing to make sure that happens tonight. Drake grabbing Ryan by his hair and slowly beginning to heave him up to his big, there’s a possibility that he could be going for something big right here!
James Peters: RYAN! RYAN! HE WAS PLAYING POSSUM THIS WHOLE TIME! HE GRABS DRAKE BY HIS HEAD AND ROLLS HIM INTO A SMALL PACKAGE! SMALL PACKAGE PIN! THE REF SLIDING DOWN FOR THE COUNT, COULD RYAN WILSON STEAL A VICTORY AGAINST THE EAW WORLD CHAMPION RIGHT HERE?!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
TTTTTHHHHHRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!
Persephone: Damn even doing what he’s best at, being a pussy, doesn’t work.
Rich Russillo: BUT DRAKE MANAGES TO GET THE SHOULDER UP BEFORE THREE! Both of them are quickly scrambling back up to their feet knowing the predicament that they’re both in, there is absolutely no room for error. DRAKE ATTEMPTS A SUPERKICK! But Ryan blocks in and spins him around, BEFORE TAKING HIS HEAD OFF WITH A STIFF LARIAT! Drake isn’t taken down though, stumbling backwards trying to hold his ground. BEFORE DRAKE SPINS AROUND AND GOES FOR A DISCUS LARIAT!
James Peters: BUT IT’S RYAN THAT TAKES DRAKE DOWN TO THE MAT AND LOCKS IN LE CRABE DU QUÉBEC! BOSTON CRAB LOCKED IN! Both of them are dead at the center of the ring, Ryan dropping all his weight onto the back of Drake while he screams in pure agony! Drake attempts to claw at the canvas in hopes of finding a way out of the situation that he’s found himself in, slamming his fists into the ground to fight through the pain and keep pushing. Both of these competitors are gladiators, unable to know when to give up. But haven’t you ever thought that enough is enough? Drake is continuing to crawl with all of his power, every inch getting closer and closer to the ropes and you can see Ryan putting every bit of weight and power that he has left into this hold. He has Drake exactly where he wants him, why wouldn’t you want to take advantage of that while you have the chance?
Persephone: How about both of them just leave the ring and call this match a draw, that’s much better use of taking advantage of something if you ask me.
Rich Russillo: Drake is continuing to crawl, that mask of blood blurring his vision but he still knows exactly where he needs to go. The only thing that Ryan can truly do now, is pray to make sure that Drake stays in this hold. He knows Drake isn’t going to tap, so the best thing he can really do is subdue him and take him out to secure the victory! Drake is fighting with all of his life though, inching closer and closer to the ropes but he seems to be slowing down though. Drake seems to be fading as we could very well be seeing the end of the match right here.
James Peters: BUT DRAKE GRABS ONTO THE ROPES! DRAKE MANAGES THE ROPE BREAK LEAVING RYAN ABSOLUTELY FURIOUS AS HE IMMEDIATELY LETS GO OF THE HOLD!
Rich Russillo: Ryan grabbing onto Drake and sending him towards the corner, I think he’s looking for something else. AND THAT APPEARS TO BE THE CASE AS RYAN RUNS TOWARDS HIM AND CONNECTS WITH A CORNER CLOTHESLINE! Ryan sends him to the opposite corner, BEFORE CONNECTING WITH ANOTHER! I don’t think Ryan is stopping though, DOING IT AGAIN AND THIS TIME GOING FOR AN HELLUVA KICK! But Drake with a kick to the face of Ryan completely stunning him! Drake climbs up to the top rope, BUT WAIT! RYAN JUMPS UP TO THE TOP AND JOINS HIM AS WELL!
James Peters: This is not a good position for either of them, it’s very precarious considering one wrong move could cost them the entire match tumbling off the top rope. Both of them are trading fists with one another, trying to get the upper hand and possibly looking to go for a big move as a result! Ryan with a quick European Uppercut, but Drake sends one back that nearly costs Ryan and takes him off the turnbuckle! But Ryan manages to stay on, NOT BEFORE DRAKE CONNECTS WITH A HEADBUTT AGAINST HIS SKULL! NOW DRAKE PUSHES RYAN OFF THE TOP ROPE! Ryan tumbles down to the ground hitting the canvas heavy. Drake sees the spot he’s in and I think he realizes that it’s better if he uses this for his own good. Drake is on the top, BEFORE JUMPING OFF AND LOOKING TO CRUSH RYAN WITH A PHOENIX SPLASH!
Persephone: Drake has been getting fatter ever since he started impersonating Jesus, I don’t know how he’s able to do that anymore.
Rich Russillo: BUT RYAN MOVES OUT OF THE WAY! Drake lands hard on the ground feeling the effects, but already trying to get himself back up to his feet as well. BUT RYAN! LE BOMBE BLEU! BLUE THUNDER BOMB PLANTS THE EAW WORLD CHAMPION TO THE GROUND! RYAN ISN’T GOING FOR THE PIN THOUGH HE SEEMS TO BE GOING FOR ONE MORE MOVE!
James Peters: MIC DROP! SMALL PACKAGE DRIVER DROPS DRAKE’S HEAD ON THE CANVAS! RYAN IS FIGHTING THROUGH MULTITUDES OF PAIN TO DRAG HIMSELF TOWARDS DRAKE! RYAN HAS HIS ARM DRAPED OVER ‘THE LAST MESSIAH’! PIN ATTEMPT! PIN ATTEMPT!
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
TTTTTHHHHHRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
…
…
…
Persephone: :will: I quit.
Rich Russillo: BUT DRAKE MANAGES TO GET HIS SHOULDER OFF THE MAT! WHETHER RYAN LIKES IT OR NOT, THIS MATCH CONTINUES! Look at that shock all over Ryan’s face, how the hell did he manage to kick out of the ‘Mic Drop’? Both of these competitors have kicked out of one anothers finishing moves, it just asks the question: what the hell is going to be enough to finish the job?! Ryan looks absolutely pissed off, grabbing Drake by his head and getting back up to his feet! BEFORE TAKING HIM DOWN WITH A HUGE FOREARM SMASH! Drake is still getting back up though, BEFORE RYAN TURNS AROUND AND GOES FOR ANOTHER! But this time Drake ducks under it, BEFORE GOING FOR A BICYCLE KICK! Which Ryan grabs and manages to push away! Both of them run towards one another, BUT THEY WERE THINKING THE SAME THING AS BOTH OF THEM TAKE ONE ANOTHER DOWN TO THE GROUND WITH A DOUBLE CLOTHESLINE!
James Peters: That had to hurt both of them, but it’s become apparent that both of them are not going to stay down for long. Both of them are slowly recovering and getting back up to their feet, grabbing their heads and relying on strikes to stun one another! Both of them are completely unloading on one another like it’s the beginning of the match! Drake gets the upper hand managing to send repeated forearms towards the face of Ryan while he tries to desperately block it against the ropes! Drake grabbing Ryan and sending him towards the ropes, RUNNING FORWARD AND POSSIBLY GOING FOR A SLINGBLADE! BUT RYAN TAKES DRAKE DOWN TO THE GROUND WITH A FOREARM WHILE HE REBOUNDS! Ryan runs to the ropes and back while Drake stumbles up to his feet! RYAN GOING FOR A SUPERMAN PUNCH TO THE HEAD OF DRAKE KING!
Persephone: Why do they call it a Superman Punch? I don’t know why I’m asking that, I just need to think of something actually interesting to get me away from this match.
Rich Russillo: BUT IT’S DRAKE THAT GRABS RYAN BEFORE THAT HAPPENS AND DUMPS HIM OVER THE TOP ROPE! Ryan is sent tumbling down to the outside flooring and you know that had to be a hard impact for him. Ryan is clutching onto the barricade trying to get his bearings and help himself up to his feet, trying to shake off the pain that he’s been through in this match and keep his head in the game.
James Peters: He knows that there isn’t much time to spare. It’s either get back inside the ring, or rest on the outside long enough for Drake to once again take advantage. You can see Ryan continuing to push on and that tells alot about our New Breed Champion. Ryan attempts to enter the ring through the bottom rope, Drake backed up in the corner.
Persephone: BOOM! HIS HEAD EXPLODES INTO BITS AND HE DIES!
Rich Russillo: DRAKE WITH ‘JUDGEMENT DAY’! THE CURB STOMP CONNECTS WHILE RYAN WAS ATTEMPTING TO RE-ENTER THE RING! RYAN IS COMPLETELY KNOCKED OUT COLD! BUT I DON’T THINK DRAKE IS DONE JUST YET! KNOWING RYAN IT’S GOING TO TAKE MORE THAN ONE TO FINISH HIM OFF! THAT’S WHAT DRAKE PLANS TO DO!
James Peters: CONNECTING WITH ANOTHER ‘JUDGEMENT DAY’ CURB STOMP! RYAN WILSON’S HEAD WHICH IS POURING WITH BLOOD IS DRIVEN DOWN TO THE MAT! DRAKE QUICKLY ROLLING RYAN OVER AND HOOKING THE LEG! PIN ATTEMPT! PIN ATTEMPT!
Persephone: Please Jesus I beg you…
OOONNNEEE!!!
TTTTWWWWOOOO!!!!
TTTTTHHHHHRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
…
…
…
(DING! DING! DING!)
(‘Cold War’ once again plays up as a lifeless Drake rolls onto his back in exhaustion. The ref makes his way over to help him up to a seated position, Drake’s eyes fluttering trying to regain some sort of consciousness after that final stretch. He takes his hand and wipes his face, smudging the blood that completely covers his face down to his upper body. He blinks repeatedly before dragging himself towards the ropes and brings himself back up to his feet. The crowd boos in response to him getting back up while the ref makes his way over and raises his hand in victory. Drake from there leans fully against the ropes, taking a breather)
Bella Braxton: Ladies and gentlemen, here is your winner… the EAW WORLD CHAMPION!!!!! DRAKE THE REDEEMER!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rich Russillo: What a war that we’ve just seen unfold tonight. It was a match that solidified their status on the Sunday Night Voltage, both Drake King and Ryan Wilson putting one another through hell. They knew that this was a match that they both needed to win, and they looked like they were going to kill one another to make sure that happened. When it was all said and done and the smoke cleared though, only one stood on top.
James Peters: Ryan Wilson put up a hell of a fight, a surprising one that pushed the World Champion to his absolute limit. Making him dig down deep and pull out all the stops to keep him down. Despite the defeat, the only way to go from here for Ryan is up. But nonetheless, is this the image that we’re going to be seeing at Bloodsport? With Drake King standing in victory over a beaten and battered Justin Windgate? Well, that’s something that we’re going to have to see for ourselves. That’s all we have tonight! Congratulations to Drake on the victory! For Rich Russillo and Persephone, I’m James Peters; signing off.
(Drake drops down and rolls out to the ring, completely neglecting the EAW World Championship and leaving it at the timekeeper’s area. He makes his way up the ramp clutching his gut in pain. At ringside Ryan is seen seated against the barricade, he’s barely conscious as the medical team wipes away the blood from his face with a damp cloth. The last shot seen is Drake looking out at the booing crowd once more on the stage, before disappearing through the backstage area as Voltage fades to complete black)
(EAW logo buzzes.)
