Tokyo, Japan.

One hour after FALLOUT.

 

The scene opens to an expensive upper class sushi restaurant called SHOKU. The MAWL FALLOUT afterparty is underway. The atmosphere is buzzing as everyone celebrates the events of the pay per view.

 

 

“The Wicked Deadly” Matt Martigon walks up to one of the bars and slams a yellow brief case down on the bar top before he sits. He orders himself a double rye and ginger. Taking a single sip before putting the glass down.

 

MATT MARTIGON: “Hey buddy. Keep these drinks coming. Put them on the company tab or whatever. 

 

Martigons eyes shift back to the yellow briefcase. Spinning it around on the bar. 

 

MATT MARTIGON: “WOW. Just like that. A US title shot… I want to say I earned this but I straight up stole the bitch. I may not be getting the results I want in the matches so far but sometimes it’s the IMPRESSION that you make with people. Letting them know right away what you are capable of. In and out of the ring. 

 

WAITER: “Hi. Excuse me Mr Martigon but there are two men kicking your ass outside the establishment.”

 

Matt Martigon turns his head to see his limo driver Cid, now dressed exactly like Matt Martigon getting beat down by two men in suits.

 

MATT MARTIGON: “You can’t find good help these days…”

 

Matt Martigon finishes his drink and picks up his brief case and walks through the crowd. Pushing his way to the entrance. The men pick Cid  up and slam him face first into glass door. Martigon standing there in awe like his reflection at funhouse. Martigon knocks on the glass over Cids face.

 

MATT MARTIGON: “I TOLD YOU to wait in the car. And why are you still dressed like me? You’re on driver time now not stunt guy time. Smarten up dipshit”

 

CID: “UGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH”

 

Martigon kicks the door open sending Cid flying to ground. The two men in suits suddenly look confused. 

 

MATT MARTIGON: “Anybody else having Deja Vu tonight fellas? Just you?”

 

SUIT 1: “This some kind of joke?”

 

SUIT 2: “This fuckin guy out here talking a load of crap. But it looks like he cloned himself to even the odds”

 

MATT MARTIGON: “Wait.. you think I’m copying him?…”

 

With that Matt Martigon tosses the yellow briefcase up in the air and round house kicks SUIT 2 in the head. Catching  the briefcase as the man in the suit drops to the ground.

 

MATT MARTIGON: “Now we are even. Guaranteed.”

 

The man in the suit runs straight at Martigon. Tackling him through the glass door and back into SHOKU. Martigon on his back repeatedly striking the top and sides of the suits head with alternating elbow. Knocking him out.

 

MATT MARTIGON: “I always did have a way with first impressions.”

 

“The Wicked Deadly” shoves the suited thug off of him before standing up in front of a now silient crowd. Martigon grabs his yellow brief case and smiles to himself. 

 

MATT MARTIGON: “Listen up nerds. I don’t know which one of you pricks is JP SPEARS. But let him know that if I find out that he had anything to do with this attack.. I GUARANTEE that our match at GRAVEYARD SHIFT will have him giving up on ever holding the US TITLE…

 

CID!!? CID!!! Get your shit! This party sucks ass..”

OCTOBER 3, 2025
BEIJING, CHINA

BEIJING WORKERS' SPORTS COMPLEX

 

 

Inside the Parking lot, the team of Sanity In Ring are seen walking together, seemingly plotting their next move. Pam Arnasdóttir and Manda Miento walk a little bit ahead-

 

 

When suddenly Brick Benson and Lou Bison attack them from behind!

 

 

Both Manda and Pam take an intense beating. Pam manages barely to get away but Manda isn't so lucky, and is beaten within an inch of his life. 

 

Brick Benson: Courtesy of the Godmother. 

 

Brick and Lou stalk off in the direction of Pam, as EMTs try to attend to Manda. We keep the camera on Manda's brutalized face for a moment then-

 

 

The crowd goes absolutely wild as "Together Right" by Finger Eleven plays through the stadium and fireworks go off. 

 

Simon (OC): We are in the Fallout...of Fallout... in the heart and soul of China, and absolutely reeling from what lived up to its place as our flagship show! A title was reborn, multiple superstars got their belts back, X-Treme Society unseated two living legends, and Kid Kross completed his journey from Spring Sting in capturing the belt...only to be nearly run over by Guinevere!

 

 

Simon: If you've been watching the social sphere, you'll know that the internet has been in heated debate since Fallout. The question on everyone's mind is, did Guinevere mean to run Kross over?

 

 

Kendra: I want to believe that it was an accident. You saw the reflection of her in the mirror and she looked truly shocked.

 

 

Arvin: She was clearly gunning for him. You saw how fast she was going. The look I think was more about her missing her target and instead running over the prize she's seeking. 

 

Simon: That's a truly cynical take, Arvin. Guinevere is one of the kindest, most heroic women in the locker room. I doubt she would have stooped to that level. 

 

Kendra: I actually have to side with Simon on this one. Guinevere is too pure for this world. 

 

Arvin: You're both being stupid. Championship gold lures bright people to do dark things. Everyone's got that killer in them, and this I think lured that out of her.

 

 

Simon: Well it's not gonna take us long to learn, is it?

 

Guinevere stands on the stage with a microphone, receiving a mixed reaction - boos from those who think she was intentional and cheers in support of her. 

 

 

Guinevere walks down the ramp tapping the mic on her chin, taking in the boos and cheers alike with a small but determined smile. When she enters the ring she signals for the noise stop.

 

Guinevere: Now since Fallout, everyone has had one thing on their mind.... me. 

 

The divided audience reaction picks up again.

 

Guinevere: Some of you have been very rabid in your support of me, and for that, I thank you graciously. And some of you...need your mouths washed out with soap. Or bleach. 

 

Don't drink bleach, kids.

 

Guinevere: So the million dollar question. Did I attempt to run over Kid Kross, or was that an accident? Well-

 

 

Simon: Kid Kross clearly wants answers too.

 

 

Kid Kross lifts a microphone to his face, but before any words can come out-

 

 

Morgan Maverick attacks Kid Kross from behind, driving Kross into the steel of the stage with a clothesline to the back of the head. Morgan picks Kross up, and sets him up for the Phire in the Hole. Suddenly...

 

Guinevere smiles and nods, and Morgan drives Kross into the steps. Guinevere unzips her white jumpsuit to reveal-

 

 

-A matching outfit! Guinevere smiles coldly.

 

Guinevere: Of COURSE I MEOWING did you idiots. You wanna know what happened at Fallout? I won the briefcase to challenge for the TOP MEOWING TITLE IN THIS WHOLE MEOWING PLACE AND BARELY A PEEP WAS SAID EITHER BY YOU ASSHOLES AT COMMENTARY-

 

Simon: Hey don't drag us into this. 

 

Guinevere: OR ANY OF YOU ASSHOLES BACKSTAGE. I went from elated to confused. How could it be that I could have this opportunity of a lifetime, a shot at the top, and almost nobody gave a damn. You all cared more about the mid-card title won by a failed pundit than the top damn title. You know who DID congratulate me? Morgan Maverick. Zora Luthor. You know who DID offer to have my back at Graveyard Shift? Morgan Maverick and Zora Luthor. Now you all-

 

Now it's all boos.

 

Guinevere: Boo all you want now, you didn't cheer me when I played nice either. Ever since I first set foot in this hellhole, Morgan has been trying to get me to team up. Be the Fabulous Firebirds. She was the Philly Phirebird, I was the default one, and I demurred and deferred because I wanted to be your hero. I wanted to show up for you and do the right thing. And wouldn't you know that when the tables were turned, not one person in the MAWL Fandom, the IWC, not one of you useless pails of pathetic plasma responded in kind. And yet, here I am, a few short weeks away from Graveyard Shift and a shot at the gold and honestly? I...

 

Feel...

 

FABULOUS.

 

Guinevere chuckles coldly as the fans boo then smiles in a way that sends shivers down a grown man's spine.

 

Guinevere: You're all talking about me now, aren't you. This is what it takes here, then I am all in on it. Partner, drop him again.

 

Morgan Maverick lifts him up and ANOTHER PHIRE IN THE HOLE! Guinevere steps out of the ring, walks up the ramp to boos, and Morgan raises her hand as the crowd lets out roaring disapproval. Morgan and Guinevere sneer and walk back through the doorway. 

 

Arvin: I told you. And honestly, I love this for her.

 

Kendra: Guinevere joins the ranks of Jassy and Aja Lioness, and also all the women who'd turned their back on the MAWLTIVERSE. 

 

Simon: Well, we start off the week with a heartbreak... I guess let's get into the week itself before it gets any worse. 

 

Kendra: We're dealing with all the post-Fallout mess, as well as beginning to move towards Graveyard Shift, WHILE hosting Frequency of the Damned stars until we figure out just what's going where with whom. So let's take it down to Ash for our first match as the competitors are already in the ring! 

 

DEDO APESTOSO DE LA MUERTE VS HIGH FLYER MONO

 

 

Ash: The following contest is scheduled for one fall!

 

Crowd: ONE FALL!

 

Ash: In the ring- from Phoenix, Arizona, weighing in at 198 pounds, HIGH FLYER MONO!!

 

 

Ash: And his opponent! From Cardiff, Wales, weighing in at 269 pounds, DEEEEDO APESTOSO DE LA MUERTE!!

 

 

Crowd: CHICKEN! CHICKEN! CHICKEN!

 

Kendra: In our magnanimousness, we have housed the Frequency refs here while we figure out what we're doing. Classic Jenny Caldwell will be overseeing this match.

 

 

The bell rings!

 

Simon: Dedo takes a charge at Mono to start this match, coming for an early Shining Wizard, Mono slides under it up on the other side of him with a kip-up Poison Rana! Dedo rolls up to his feet but Mono meets him with a Dropsault!

 

Kendra: Mono's giving himself an early edge here, we knew this was going to be a fast paced match and these guys aren't disappointing!

 

Simon: Indeed not, Mono taking another run and trying to keep pace up, hasn't broken stride yet, Drop Toe Hold by Dedo cuts the momentum, Dedo kipping up now and an elbow drop to the back of Mono, and picks him up into an Atomic Drop MONO WITH A BACK BODY DROP! 

 

Arvin: Mono better watch himself, a 79 pound difference might not SEEM like much but Mono's not cut out for the powerhouse life and moves like that will wear on ya. 

 

Simon: You're not wrong, and the little pause is enough for Dedo to get up and an Air Raid Siren! Mono pops up like it's nothing and huracanrana! Going for a pin-

 

Jenny: ONE! TWO! THR-

 

Arvin: Roll back by Dedo!

 

Jenny: ONE! TWO!

 

Kendra: Mono rolls it back his own way!

 

Jenny: ONE! 

 

Simon: Dedo kicks and punches Mono in the face on his way up. 

 

Kendra: Mono grabs his arm and Inverted DDT! Keeping it locked for an arm-trapped sleeperhold, Dedo trying to get himself to the ropes but Mono spins them into the center of the ring and Dedo can't fight it off anymore as he taps.

 

High Flyer Mono wins by submission!

 

 

Ash: Here is your winner, HIGH FLYER MONO!

 

Kendra: And we're off to a kinetic start. Let's keep the action going. Ash?

 

JEANNIE ROSE VS ISABELLA VAN DER GARDE

 

Ash: The following contest is scheduled for one fall!

 

Crowd: ONE FALL!

 

Sounds of cannons blast off and "I, Emperor" begins playing. 

 

 

A hooded feminine figure appears on stage and lowers her hood to reveal herself as Isabella Van der Garde.

 

 

She winks at a nearby camera before heading to the ramp.

 

Ash: FIRST! From Den Helder, Netherlands, ISABELLLLLA VAN DER GARDE!

 

Simon: We haven't had much interaction yet with Isabella on a one-on-one basis, it will be interesting to see what happens here.

 

Once at ringside Isabella slides immediately underneath the bottom rope to not just enter the ring but slide all the way to the opposite ropes. Afterwards the Dutchwoman climbs up the ropes until she is bent over the top rope and she blows a cheeky wink towards the camera as she takes her cloak off and carefully drapes it on the apron.

 

 

Jeannie Rose is backstage and she does the Sailor Moon transformation pose.

 

 

Pink smoke fills the stage. When the smoke clears, Jeannie is on the stage in her Sailor Moon transformation pose.

 

Ash: And her opponent! From London, England, JEAANNNNIE ROOOOSE!

 

Fireworks go off behind her, and she skips to the ring.

 

Arvin: She fashions herself a superhero of sorts, but she's about to crushed underneath that giant tush. 

 

She climbs to the turnbuckle and backflips into the ring, doing a superhero landing.

 

Simon: And we've got Erica Lance in the stripes, I guess this means she's back in the good graces of the fed.

 

 

The bell rings!

 

Simon: Jeannie coming in hot with a crucifix and a pin attempt -

 

Erica: ONE!

 

Kendra: Isabella kicks easily. Jeannie really think she's that super, she can end it in a single move?

 

Simon: Jeannie with a belly to belly, Isabella back to her feet and looking for a superkick but Jeannie catches it into a leg-trapped back suplex. Jeannie going for a ripcord, Isabella comes in with an elbow to the face, backs herself up into a run...

 

Arvin: We're about to get some push from that tush! Jumping Butt Bump! Bella Bomb! And she sits on Jeannie's face for that pin!

 

Erica: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

Isabella Van Der Garde wins by Pinfall!

 

 

Ash: HERE IS YOUR WINNER, ISABELLA VAN DER GARDE!

 

Arvin: The rumpus doesn't disappoint!

 

Simon: And the audience is shocked at that win! Isabella is shocked too! She gives the audience a small thumbs up as she gets back up to her feet. It wasn't just a Squash, it was a BUTTernut Squash.

 

Kendra: No. Just no. Can we go to the next match?

 

Arvin: I actually appreciated that one. 

 

Kendra: SHOCKING.

 

Simon: Wait, I think the chaos hasn't subsided...here come Dark Sails from the crowd!

 

 

Kendra: They're taking advantage of the fallen Jeannie and are kicking the hell out of them... Isabella isn't going to let that slide! She charges and a Butt Bump big enough for two! Bella Bombed! She helps Jeannie to her feet and they double superkick Dark Sails over the ropes!!

 

Arvin: What CAN'T Isabella's butt do?

 

Simon: Well the word I'm getting now is that this is going to be a tag match next week, Dark Sails vs Isabella and Jeannie! 

 

Arvin: We're not gonna have to wait to see the Goddesses of Stardom in action though, I think their limo is pulling up now...and here's TM Ichiban!

 

 

AIKO AND MAYU IWATANI VS MAKI AND MIU

 

Ash: The following is a tag team contest and it is scheduled for one fall!

 

Crowd: ONE FALL!

 

TM Ichiban opens the limo door and out walk the Maki Birds.

 

 

The Maki Birds begin to sing-

 

 

And as this happens, Maki and Miu emerge from the limo with glasses of champagne and Maki with the Inferno Title around her shoulder.

 

 

Ash: First! Representing Goddesses of Stardom, Miu and The Cutest and Cruelest in the World, the Inferno Champion, MAKI!

 

Maki and Miu take sips as they saunter down the ramp, meeting halfway with Dark Sails. 

 

Simon: This group feels like a slap in the face to fans of pure Joshi wrestling.

 

Arvin: I say if New Japan can be invaded by a bunch of non-Asians and the Shotgun Society or whatever they're called then turnabout is fair play.

 

The four of them pose on the apron in full mega-star fashion before Maki and Miu enter the ring.

 

The big screen cuts to backstage where Rina, Aiko's personal announcer and sometimes partner, is standing. Her infectious smile sparkles.

 

 

 

Rina: Introducing two beautiful and mighty fighters from Yamaguchi, Japan... the Moonblade Aiko, and Mayu Iwatani!!!!

 

Mayu and Aiko flank Rina in traditional Japanese Attire, with matching Black Umbrellas. 

 

"Neon Blade" by MoonDeity hits -

 

- And Aiko and Mayu now face the camera.

 

 

Kendra: We've got two of Yamaguchi's finest answering the call!

 

They remove their designer glasses and walk with zeal and boldness toward the gorilla position and out through the entrance way stage area.

 

The crowd erupts into cheers of admiration, and they bounce along with our heroes as they strut to the rhythmic beat. On the stage they jump, and give synchronized quick kicks downwards followed by matching high kicks once they land. 

 

Maki and Miu have seen enough and they lunge at our two heroes! Erica Lance breaks them up and sends them to their relative corners. Maki and Aiko start, and the bell rings.

 

Simon: At this point these two are well-versed with each other. Aiko wastes no time launching herself at Maki with a flying cross body! Maki pushes her off and starts to her feet, Aiko pushes her back with a front kick. Great to see Aiko putting the pressure on early!

 

Kendra: Ooh Maki pokes Aiko in her bad eye! It's just started to fully heal! Aiko goes for a spinning backfist, but with the depth perception thrown she barely grazes her. Tries it with the other hand and same result. 

 

Arvin: She wasn't prepared to fight again. She shoulda stayed home.

 

Simon: Maki whips Aiko into the corner, tag in to Miu and a double suplex from the corner. Miu with a leg drop and going for a cover-

 

Erica: ONE!

 

Kendra: Aiko gets the shoulder up! Aiko with a side kick, oh swings wide and Miu sweeps her back leg out. Miu with a stomp to the leg, Aiko up to her feet off the ropes and MOONBLADE KICK!!! MAYU CHARGES IN AND DROPKICKS MAKI OFF THE APRON AND AIKO COVERS-

 

Erica: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

Aiko and Mayu Iwatani win by Pinfall!

 

 

Ash: Here are your winners, Aiko and Mayu Iwatani!!

 

Kendra: DARK SAILS ARE RUSHING THE RING! THEY ARE GOING HAM ON AIKO AND MAKI...ISABELLA AND JEANNIE ROSE ARE BACK OUT HERE AND LOOKING NICE AND REFRESHED, WE GOT A BRAWL ON OUR HANDS AND BASED ON ERICA CALLING FOR THE BELL IT LOOKS LIKE THIS JUST BECAME A 4 ON 4 SURVIVOR SERIES MATCH!

 

JEANNIE ROSE, ISABELLA VAN DER GARDE, AIKO, AND MAYU IWATANI VS GODDESSES OF STARDOM

 

Arvin: Looks like Aiko and Miyuu Sakai will be starting us off now. I wanted to see what Dark Sails can do in the ring, so I personally am excited.

 

Simon: Aiko tags Mayu Iwatani in, that's smart, and Mayu with a running elbow to Sakai. Sakai eats the elbow but grabs the arm and a huge judo flip! Going for an early elim with a pin but Iwatani kicks before one.

 

Kendra: Using last names, smart.

 

Simon: The first names are all so close. 

 

Arvin: Iwatani with a big ol' scoop slam to Sakai! That's no way to treat an icon of screen! But Sakai rights it with a drop toe hold to Iwatani. 

 

Simon: Iwatani rolls up behind her and grabs her ankle! She drops her on her face and an elevated ankle lock!! Miyuu Sakai trying to get to the ropes, get to her teammates, but Iwatani's team runs interference and the starlet taps out!!!

 

Mayu Iwatani eliminates Miyuu Sakai by submission!

 

Maki enters the match.

 

Kendra: I think she wasn't ring ready yet. But Maki enters AND MAYU SPEARS HER! Tag in to Jeannie Rose and Jeannie comes in guns blazing, Maki sidesteps her and a big neckbreaker. Maki with a tag to Watanabe, Watanabe stomps out Rose. Azama starting to undo a turnbuckle, Erica catches her out OH IT WAS A DIVERSION AND MAKI WITH THE BRASS KNUCKLES TO JEANNIE ROSE!

 

Arvin: One Punch Champ strikes again!!

 

Simon: Jeannie looking to crawl for a tag but Maki cuts her off with a stomp JEANNIE WITH A HARD AND FAST ROLL UP DRIVING MAKI TO THE MAT-

 

Erica: ONE!

 

Arvin: MAKI REVERSES! HELL YEAH! 

 

Kendra: JEANNIE REVERSES BACK! HELL YEAH!

 

Erica: ONE!

 

Arvin: Maki gets the shoulder up and ends that façade. 

 

Kendra: Jeannie would really benefit from a tag right now.

 

Simon: She chooses instead to drive Maki down with a boot, and a fist drop, going for a pin but Maki gets her shoulder up easily. NOW Jeannie tries for the tag, but Maki drives her backwards with a German Suplex! Jeannie lands rough but bounces back and blasts her with a spin kick!! Maki hooks Jeannie's legs and locks her into the Itoh Punish!! Jeannie's struggling for dear life but Maki pulls her closer into the center of the ring! Isabella in to save her but it's too late and Jeannie Rose taps!

 

Maki eliminates Jeannie Rose by submission!

 

Isabella Van Der Garde enters the match.

 

Simon: Maki evens the playing field but Isabella with a running senton puts Maki in a pin predicament!! 

 

Arvin: I hate to admit it but the butt may be too powerful even for the One Punch Champ!

 

Erica: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

Isabella Van Der Garde eliminates Maki by pinfall!

 

Mew Azama enters the match.

 

Kendra: Unless Azama can be more effective than Sakai, this just became a 3 on 1 and a half! Isabella off the ropes and BELLA BOMB! 

 

Erica: ONE! TWO!

 

Simon: AZAMA REVERSES?!?

 

Erica: ONE! TWO!

 

Kendra: Isabella kicks but Azama kicks her in the face on her way up OH ISABELLA GRABS HER FOOT AND SIDE CRADLE PIN! But Azama kicks.

 

Arvin: She's already faring better than her partner, survived the Bella Bomb. Isabella with a running elbow, AZAMA GRABS HER ARM AND JUDO FLIP! AZAMA LOCKS HER INTO A RINGS OF SATURN!!! Watanabe fights off Mayu! Watanabe fights off Aiko! Isabella can't hold out any longer!!! WHO'S JUST A STUPID CELEBRITY NOW, SIMON?

 

Mew Azama eliminates Isabella Van Der Garde by submission!

 

Mayu Iwatani enters the match. 

 

Simon: Azama whips Iwatani into the corner, tag to Watanabe, double brainbuster!! Elbow drop by Watanabe and goes for the pin-Mayu Iwatani shoulders up before one. Watanabe with a Fujiwara Armbar to Iwatani! But Iwatani fights out of that easily. Watanabe gets Iwatani up by the waist, the lift and Flapjack! TEAR DROP! The cover-MAYU REVERSES! 

 

Erica: ONE! TWO!

 

Arvin: Watanabe reverses back!!!

 

Erica: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

Miu Watanabe eliminates Mayu Iwatani by pinfall!

 

Aiko enters the match. 

 

Kendra: Aiko is the last woman standing but she doesn't back down! Running dropkick to Watanabe! Watanabe pushes back with a Spinebuster!! 

 

Arvin: Attagirl! And she follows up with a leg drop, and Aiko is in serious peril right now. Off the ropes and a splash into a cover-

 

Erica: ONE! T-

 

Kendra: Aiko kicks out! That never say die attitude is at the forefront! 

 

Arvin: Aiko's just fooling herself at this point, as Watanabe gets her with mounted punches. Oooh and a headbutt. Aiko turns it into an O'Connor Roll but of course nothing comes of it. 

 

Kendra: So Aiko will just have to take a run aaaaand Moonblade Kick!! Going for the cover but Azama pulls her partner to the ropes before one. Watanabe going for the Inverted Cloverleaf and I think I heard a snap, but Aiko manages to get to the ropes. Gets herself to her feet and she's gonna try for a run and Moonblade Kick again!!

 

Erica: ONE! TWO!

 

Simon: Azama breaks it up with a splash!! And Watanabe stays alive but Aiko with a huge belly to belly! AZAMA RUNS IN WITH A CLOTHESLINE AND TAKES AIKO DOWN, WATANABE GETS THAT INVERTED CLOVERLEAF!! REVERSE PARADOX!!! AIKO IS SERIOUS PAIN BUT SHE JUST MANAGES TO MAKE IT TO THE ROPES! WATANABE DROPS THE HOLD BUT GETS HER BY THE WAIST... TEAR DROP! THE COVER-

 

Erica: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

Miu Watanabe eliminates Aiko by pinfall! Miu Watanabe and Mew Azama win!

 

 

Ash: Here are your winners, Goddesses of Stardom!!!

 

Simon: This is not going to be a great momentum going into Graveyard Shift.

 

Arvin: What are you talking about? This team is primed to protect Maki's title and get their own trios shot in the process. 

 

Kendra: Well, opinions are certainly varied, but one thing that is a fact, we have much more card to go. 

 

Simon: We sure do, and this next one is gonna be an exercise in brutality, as we have Mansin taking on Chorker in a Boiler Room Brawl.

 

BOILER ROOM BRAWL

MANSIN VS CHORKER

 

Arvin: We have Vanya Cross in the Boiler Room to officiate this match.

 

 

Kendra: Vanya's only real role in this is to certify when one person is no longer able to compete. Ah, and here come our two monsters now.

 

 

Arvin: Chorker gets in there quickly with a series of forearm shots to the face of Mansin and spears him into a Boiler! Mansin grabs him by the hair and face smash into the boiler. Ripcords Chorker right into his knee and that's a Maneurysm if I've ever seen one! 

 

Simon: Chorker struggling to his feet, Mansin grabs a hold of Chorker's chain and he's choking him out with it! Chorker trying to get him away with a series of elbows to the ribs, Mansin answers with a giant headbutt CHORKER FLIPS HIM OVER! Right onto the hold concrete floor!

 

Kendra: Mansin with ANOTHER Maneurysm and Chorker looks a bit dazed, but not broken and he gets him with a GIANT Spinebuster onto the Concrete. Mansin gets the legs and Alabama Slam! Stomp to Chorker's midsection, grabs Chorker's legs and splits him open around the Boiler!!! Anyone hungry for roasted nuts?

 

Simon: Chorker wraps his legs around Mansin's and he grabs his arms, holding him on the boiler!! We're looking at some major burns here. 

 

Arvin: Mansin able to get control of his arms long enough to drive Chorker face first into the boiler and get himself out of this situation. Mansin keeps hold of the arms and another face smash into the boiler. Lets go of one arm, judo flip with the other. 

 

Kendra: Mansin doing what he can to keep control of this match, stomps out Chorker and a kick to the face. Tries it again, Chorker gets the leg! Holding onto the leg, runs it into the boiler! Mansin not giving him the pleasure of showing pain, but Chorker keeps hold of the leg and just kicking at the burn spot now! How long can he hold on??

 

Simon: And just SMASHING Mansin's leg onto the floor at full velocity! And another one! Mansin's face showing strain, but Vanya looking unconcerned. Chorker trying it again MANSIN WITH AN ENZUIGIRI!! I don't think that's normally in his repertoire but he's gotta give it all he can right now!! 

 

Arvin: Chorker clearly stumbling a bit, but regaining composure and trips Mansin on that bad leg! He's putting his energy into crippling the man! Leg hold over his shoulder... no submissions in this one but perhaps Vanya will call it. 

 

Kendra: Seems unlikely, she looks unfazed still. Chorker with a quick kick to Mansin's back as he keeps that hold. MANSIN WITH A HEADSCISSORS DRIVER TAKES CHORKER FACE FIRST INTO THE FLOOR! 

 

Arvin: You mean onto.

 

Kendra: No, I mean into, there's a dent in the concrete!! And a STOMP to the head of Chorker! That may have hurt them both in equal measure! 

 

Simon: You can for sure see that Mansin is regretting that choice a little, but tries it again CHORKER MOVES! MANSIN JUST STOMPED HIS BAD LEG STRAIGHT INTO CONCRETE! CHORKER TAKES ADVANTAGE WITH A CHOP BLOCK! Knee Smash! Lifts the leg all the way up and ANOTHER Knee Smash! 

 

Arvin: Mansin grounded, Chorker taking a different tack and that steel plated knee goes right...almost through the jaw!!! RIVET DRIVER!!! 

 

Kendra: Vanya STILL refusing to call it off! Does she want them to kill each other??

 

Simon: Chorker telling Vanya to just declare him the winner already MANSIN UP WITH A SPINEBUSTER! THIS ONE AIN'T OVER! MANSIN'S GOT CHORKER'S LEGS AND LOW BLOW WITH THE BOILER NUMBER TWO! HE...HE'S LOCKING IN A FIGURE FOUR AROUND THE BOILER!!! 

 

Kendra: Mansin will saw his own leg off to win this match!! Chorker's got hold of his chains! He's lashing the bottom half of Mansin with it and Mansin lets go! Chorker kicks Mansin on the side MANSIN GETS A HAND ON THE CHAINS! IT'S A TUG OF WAR AND HE STRAIGHT UP DENTS THE BOILER WITH CHORKER'S HEAD!! 

 

Arvin: Chorker is whipping at the sides with his chain, but you can tell it's a more desperate move this time around! And it's not enough to break Mansin's hold on the other side, driving Chorker's head in one more time OH HE'S WRAPPING THE CHAIN AROUND CHORKER'S HEAD! CHORKER IS FACE FIRST ON THIS BOILER!! CALL THE DAMN MATCH VANYA!!!

 

Simon: Chorker is tied up...Mansin boots the head into the boiler!! BUT CHORKER STILL SWINGING AND MANAGING TO GET SOME PUNCHES IN!!! PRIDE WILL STRAIGHT UP KILL YA IF YOU'RE NOT CAREFUL!!! CHORKER GETS HIS ARMS AROUND MANSIN'S WAIST AND FOLDS HIS HANDS INTO AN AXE HANDLE! DRIVES IT TO THE BACK OF THE SPINE!! HE'S HOLDING MANSIN ON THE BOILER TOO!!! IT'S MUTUALLY ASSURED DESTRUCTION HERE!!! And a punch to Mansin's rib! Chorker able to pull his head away and Mansin's onto the boiler!!! 

 

Kendra: You can see the weakness starting to kick in, particularly on Chorker. Mansin gets a hand free HOLDING CHORKER'S FACE ON THE BOILER AND CHORKER LOOKS LIKE HE'S ABOUT TO PASS OUT ENTIRELY!!! VANYA FINALLY CALLS IT!!!

 

Mansin wins by Match Stoppage!

 

 

Simon: Mansin won this time, but at what cost is yet to be determined. It will be curious to see how these two look going into Graveyard Shift.

 

Kendra: On Graveyard Shift, our next match then will be a title match but our two competitors are going to get a dry run of sorts as they take each other one on one.

 

JP SPEARS VS MATT MARTIGON

 

Ash: The following contest is scheduled for one fall!

 

Crowd: ONE FALL!

 

 

Hand Clapper starts playing and the crowd starts to clap along.

 

JP runs out as the tron starts to play his reel and he plays to the crowd, clapping to either side before starting a jog towards the ring.

 

 

Ash: FIRST! From Charlotte, North Carolina, weighing in at 215 pounds, J! P! SPEEEEARS!

 

Simon: It's JP Spears' first time on Madness since the Split and this crowd is happy to have him back!

 

He slides under the bottom rope and takes off his cut-off T-shirt and throws it into the crowd.

 

 

Dark blue lighting and dark smoke building up for Martigon to slowly walk through Scott Hall/Penta Jr style.

 

 

Ash: AND his opponent! From Ottawa, Canada, weighing in at 233 pounds, the Wicked Deadly, MATT! MARTIGON!

 

Matt intermittently stops to interact with fans at ring side but keeps his eyes locked on JP.

 

Arvin: The man's got a mouth on him but fists to back him up. Some love him, some hate him, none deny him. It's about to get wicked deadly in this match.

 

The bell rings.

 

Simon: Matt wastes no time getting in JP's face with a shove, and right into a spinning wheel kick! JP staggers back but catches into a German and going for the pin early-

 

Jenny: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

JP Spears wins by Pinfall!

 

 

Ash: Here is your winner, J-

 

Matt: Hold the goddamn phone. What the fast count hell was that? Let's go again!

 

Jenny looks at JP who shrugs and they restart the match!

 

Kendra: That'll still reflect on their W-L, but JP wants a workout and Matt wants to not be clowned. Matt with a capture suplex, JP hits the ground roughly but kips up to his feet and blasts Matt with a standing dropkick.

 

Simon: Matt rolls up now, quick arm drag to Spears, Matt gets him up for a suplex JP reverses into a neckbreaker! Quick fist drop to Matt, going for a stomp but Matt grabs his foot and drags him down into an ankle lock!! JP wincing a bit but he gets his free leg up and roll-up pin - NO! MATT REVERSES!

 

Jenny: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

Matt Martigon wins by Pinfall!

 

 

Ash: Here is your winner, The Wicked Deadly, Matt Martigon!

 

Matt looks intensely into the camera.

 

Matt: Violent, Vile, and Viral, Just how I-

 

Kendra: JP SPEARS SACKS HIM WITH THE HIT STICK!

 

Arvin: What a sore loser!

 

Simon: REALLY? Matt is the one who bitched about the fast count or whatever. But Matt drives his shoulder into a turnbuckle post and it looks like we're gonna get a tiebreaker!

 

The bell rings one more time!

 

Kendra: Matt with a snake eyes! JP SPRINGS UP ON THE TURNBUCKLE...BLOCKBUSTER! WE'RE ON THE SCOREBOARD! A PIN-

 

Jenny: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

JP Spears wins by Pinfall...again!

 

 

Ash: Here is the final winner of this exchange...J! P! Spears!!

 

Arvin: Matt with an axe-handle and throws JP out of the ring! This one isn't over yet, and Graveyard Shift is bound to be explosive!! 

 

Simon: That is an understatement, as these two brawl to the backstage. The intensity continues to ratchet up here and it only promises to get more intense later as we have an Over-the-Top style battle on the Great Wall. That's a between 20 and 40 foot drop for our competitors, which is not in its easiest too unlike falling off the top of a cell. And the winner of that will come to battle the Dead Air Champion - remember, that title has to be defended every show. We need to keep Frequency's rules alive for when the next person takes over. 

 

Kendra: But first, we have a trio of elimination tag matches! 

 

PRESS START, STEVE THUNDER, AND POWER PLAY vs WILDFIRE, DARIA DONNER, AM BROOKS, AND MAWLIWOOD BLONDES

 

Ash: The following is an elimination tag match!

 

 

A red carpet comes down the ramp. The MAWLIWOOD Blondes unlatch a Velvet Rope and pose at the stage.

 

 

Ash: First! From Hollywood, California, the tag team of Red Carpet Mark Anderson and High Risk Winston Lewis, THE MAWLIWOOD BLONDES!

 

The Blondes strut down the ramp, posing for carefully placed Paparazzi whose cameras drown out the boos. 

 

Arvin: The former Signal Tag champs are going to get a shot at redemption at Graveyard Shift, but for tonight they are here hoping not to get eliminated. 

 

Arena light go out as the crowd goes silent

The Titantron goes all white, as the name "WildFire" is displayed on the main screen, before he makes an appearance

"Better than the Best!!!", "12 out of 10 !!!", "8 stars out of 5 !!!","Simply the Greatest EVER!!!"

WildFire charges out of the crowd sliding into the ring

 

 

Ash: And their partners! From Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, the Ether Champion, WILDFIRE!

 

WildFire kneels in the center of the ring both arms raised

 Fireworks Explode from the 4 ring posts as "I Wanna Rock" by Twisted Sister plays

 

 

Kendra: The last time WildFire and Steve Thunder met in a 5-on-5 elimination match, WildFire was the sole survivor. And one of his teammates was on the other side. 

 

 

The lights pulse red in time with the drums as on the Titan Tron a stingray has a fiery pentacle ripping through it, leading the fire image to truck through the runners. 

 

When the song hits the chorus, a huge flame erupts on the stage and Daria Donner steps out from it, pounding her chest with both hands to boos.

 

 

Ash: From North Star, Delaware, the Delaware Devil, DARIA DONNER!! 

 

Daria preens as she walks down the aisle, occasionally yelling at the fans.

 

Simon: Of course, it doesn't tell the whole story to say that Daria was on the other side of WildFire, as she's the one who caused WildFire to eliminate Steve the last time. 

 

Daria flips her hair Glinda-style as she jumps on the apron, then slowly backflips over the rope, savoring the moment. 

 

 

AM Brooks poses at the stage in a mock-punk fashion but holding what is obviously a martini.

 

 

Ash: AND! From Jersey City, New Jersey, the First Lady of Punk, AM Brooks!

 

AM tosses her martini back and flounces to the ring. 

 

Kendra: AM Brooks used to team with the Blondes, and now for possibly one night we get to see it in action again.

 

 

Derek and Dion give each other a jumping high five on the ramp. 

 

 

Ash: And their opponents! First, from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Dion and Derek Lane, POWERPLAY!!

 

Powerplay jog down, high fiving the fans as they head towards the ring before both sliding in.

 

Simon: These brothers are perfectly in sync, and are not likely to betray their compatriots the way some people do.

 

Daria: You know we can hear you.

 

 

The opening instrumental for "A Ghost in the Arcade" blares, as multicolored lights flash all around the arena and the ramp video mimics an arcade floor. When the drum riff into the opening lyrics hits, Nicole Odeon and Penny R Cade jump onto the stage in unison, causing fireworks to go off. 

 

 

Ash: Their partners! From Toad Suck, Arkansas, the team of Penny R. Cade and Nicole Odeon, PRESS START!

 

They come barreling down the ramp and a double flip at the "Hey hey hey Alibi!" causing fireworks to pop up from the ringposts. 

 

Kendra: These college roommates turned tag team, bonded over their love of video games, are ready to go, and coupled with their double dates, are hoping to show some real synchronicity. And of course, we've got the 5th.

 

The lights go out.

 

 

Suddenly a familiar guitar riff echoes through the arena and and blue lights flicker in time to the opening licks of AC/DC “Thunderstruck.” Even if you don’t know the man, you can’t deny the song, and the crowd goes NUTS. They chant “THUNDER” in time to the bass drums during which the lights in time briefly flash white to mimic the energy of a thunderstorm.

 

The main riff comes in lightning bolts erupt around the arena. A blonde man comes running out, and throws the horns to the left of the crowd, igniting a brief pillar of flame. He runs to the right of the stage and gives the horns to that side of the crowd, igniting a brief pillar of flame.

 

 

He comes charging down the ramp, high fiving anyone he can. He runs around the ring and all the way back to the other side of the ramp continuing this high five.

 

Ash: AND! From Slaughter Beach, Delaware, weighing in at 203 pounds, STING! RAY! STEVE THUUUUUUNDER!!!

 

Back in the center of the ramp he lets out a hell yeah scream and sprints full force to the ring, springboarding himself and flipping over the apron, throwing a final set of horns and then whipping off the trenchcoat dramatically in preparation for the fight.

 

Arvin: I don't see what the big deal about this man is.

 

Simon: The audience is fully on the opposite side of you on that. 

 

Steve and Daria stare daggers into each other as they each step on the apron. Red Carpet Mark Anderson and Dion Hardball Lane circle each other in the ring. The bell rings!

 

Kendra: It's going to be Hardball and Red Carpet starting us off. Dion goes for a punch, Mark blocks and an eye poke. The fans hate that and Dion agrees as he short-arm lariats Anderson to the mat! Anderson to his feet and hits him with a Cutter!! Going for an early pin, Derek comes in to cut it off but Winston kicks him out of the ring!

 

Jenny: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

Dion Hardball Lane is eliminated by Red Carpet Mark Anderson!

 

Arvin: Embarrassing start for Power Play, I guess they should call themselves Penalty Kill now.

 

Derek Dodgeball Lane enters the ring.

 

Kendra: Anderson with a sharp knee to the gut of Derek Lane, tags in Daria but Derek Lane ready for her with a springboard axe kick. Going for a cover-

 

Jenny: ONE!

 

Arvin: Daria kicks up easily and eye rake to Dodgeball on her way up. That's how it's done.

 

Simon: And she follows that up with a kick to the side, gets Dodgeball up on her shoulders and we're about to go for a ride... you can call that the F-5 but she calls it the 5D, and Derek may be calling an Uber!

 

Jenny: ONE! 

 

Kendra: DEREK REVERSES WITH A ROLL UP! DARIA ROLLS IT BACK BEFORE THE ONE!

 

Jenny: ONE! TWO!

 

Simon: Dodgeball kicks out, rolls, Daria with the Irish Whip DEREK SPRINGBOARDS AND 540 KICK!!! DODGEBALL SPECIAL!!! Going for a pin-

 

Jenny: ONE! TWO! TH-

 

Arvin: Brooks with the save! Daria to her feet, Derek to his, Derek now with the Irish Whip DARIA COMES BACK WITH A BOOT AND NEARLY TAKES DEREK'S HEAD CLEAN OFF! Derek able to get the tag to Nicole Odeon, and Nicole gets Daria with a slap! How freakin' rude! Daria tags in AM Brooks, Brooks comes blasting in with a Rocket Kick and a pin but nothing doing. 

 

Kendra: AM Brooks with a swinging neckbreaker on Nicole Odeon now and keeps her down with a series of stomps. 

 

Simon: Nicole gets the leg and gets herself up, able to drive Brooks down with a capture suplex and going for the pin but Brooks able to roll out of it before a 1 and wraps Nicole in the Black Widow!!! Nicole trying so hard not to tap, trying to reach for the ropes but AM pulling her back to the center, Nicole going to need a new path and she seems to have found one, tripping out the leg and grounding her, a roll-up pin by Odeon-

 

Jenny: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

AM Brooks is eliminated by Nicole Odeon!

 

Arvin: Brooks is livid, LIVID that she was taken out quickly like that and I agree. No respect for icons in this business.

 

High Risk Winston Lewis enters the match.

 

Simon: Nicole tags in Steve Thunder! Thunder with a running headscissors and Lewis is on the ground already! Lewis up but Thunder takes him right back down with an Enzuigiri! Steve keeps the pressure on with a springboard back elbow, and Sting Ray has the crowd fired up as he is firmly in control. 

 

Kendra: Been a while since we've seen him with this much of an energy burst, and he's got no wasted movements! To the middle rope and an elbow drop to Winston's ribs. Beautiful standing moonsault and going for a pin attempt-

 

Jenny: ONE! TWO!

 

Arvin: Red Carpet going to the top to save his partner, Dodgeball shakes the ropes on him!

 

Jenny: THREE!

 

High Risk Winston Lewis is eliminated by Sting Ray Steve Thunder!

 

Red Carpet Mark Anderson enters the ring.

 

Arvin: Anderson tags in Daria and this is the fight we've been waiting to see, Daria with a huge slap to Steve, more like a claw with those sharp nails!

 

Simon: Steve with a punch back and Daria grabs the arm, two HUGE kicks to Steve's midsection! Going for a third...Steve with a Saito Suplex! Steve whips her into the corner, tags in Nicole Odeon, double Irish whip to Daria Steve gives Nicole a boost and Nicole cuts the run with a leg lariat!! What teamwork!!! And the pin attempt-

 

Jenny: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

Daria Donner is eliminated by Nicole Odeon!

 

Kendra: And that's teamwork, that's putting the ego aside, Thunder could have taken the fall for himself, but he chose to give the assist and Nicole just spot on with that leg lariat. Hitting a moving target like that ain't easy. 

 

WildFire enters the match.

 

Arvin: Two on four now, but WildFire isn't worried, he was the sole survivor last time he was in this situation. And tag into Red Carpet Mark Anderson, Anderson takes a run and gets Odeon with an elbow drop to the face. 

 

Simon: Odeon back up to her feet and jumping DDT to Anderson. Jump to the middle rope, top the Top Turnbuckle, Frog Splash!!! FROGGER SPLASH EVEN!!! 

 

Jenny: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

Red Carpet Mark Anderson is eliminated by Nicole Odeon!

 

WildFire enters the match.

 

Arvin: Wild with the odds stacked against him, but he likes it like that. Standing dropkick with significant force pushes Odeon back. Going for the pin, Steve coming to the top to interrupt PENNY R CADE ACCIDENTALLY KNOCKS STEVE IN THE BACK!!! 

 

Jenny: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

Nicole Odeon is eliminated by WildFire!

 

Derek Dodgeball Lane enters the match. 

 

Simon: Dodgeball with a quick jab to Wild, a second one, takes a quick run and 540 degree kick! Dodgeball Special! Going for a pin-

 

Jenny: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

WildFire is eliminated by Derek Dodgeball Lane! Thunder, Dodgeball, and Penny win!

 

 

Ash: Here are your winners! Dodgeball Derek Lane, Penny R. Cade, and Sting Ray Steve Thunder! 

 

Kendra: Slight miscommunication aside, the team comes out on top, with Dodgeball getting the final fall. WildFire won't be able to replicate his sole survivor performance tonight. 

 

Arvin: But we're not going to have much time to sit on this one, as we've got another one comin' right up! 

 

KID KROSS, EDELWEISS BRIGADE, AND BIRDS OF PLAY VS ZORA LUTHOR INTERNATIONAL

 

Ash: The following contest is a six-on-six elimination match!

Ash: Ladies and gentlemen, from the depths of despair and depravity of Sunnyvale Trailer Park, in Sunnyvale Nova Scotia Canada, weighing in at 230 pounds, your hometown hero and their cross town rival, Twisted Kiiiiiddddd Kross!! 

 

Kid Kross saunters down to the ring with his flashy blue and green vest with a facial depiction of “the green bastard”, a local Sunnyvale wrestler.

 

He has his aviators on carrying a hockey stick over his shoulder. His long hair flowing behind him. Kid Kross kneels down In the ring with his arms out to the side as the music hits the chorus “ Show me the power child I’d like to say, that I’m down on my knees today”.

 

He pops back up when the lyrics say “it gives the butterflies, gives me away until I’m up on my feet again”. He climbs to the second rope and raises his stick in unison with “OUTSHINED, OUTSHINED, OUTSHINED, OUTSHINED!”  

 

Ash: Kid Kross! The one we’ve all been waiting for! He’s here to take professional wrestling by storm!

 

Kid Kross stares intently at the curtain awaiting his next challenge. Ready to prove himself to his fans and the rest of the wrestling world.

 

 

The lights flash on and off to the rhythm of the drums as Paulie Parrot and Petey Peacock do flight circles around Pen Gwen.

 

 

Ash: And his partners! FIRST, the team of Petey Peacock, Pen Gwen, and Paulie Parrot, BIRDS OF PLAY!

 

The two men mimic flying down the ramp as Pen kicks a stone-shaped beach ball into the audience before running to the apron.

 

Kendra: One of Colin's favorite teams, and this Chinese crowd would be quick to agree with him!

 

Once all three reach the apron, they flip in together.

 

 

A rainbow wheel rotates and from this, rainbow lights rotate around the entrance way. 

 

 

Ash: AND! The team of "The Rainbow Raider" Chanty, "The Unstable Unicorn" Imogen, EDELWEISS BRIGADE!!

 

They shake hands with the audience as they walk down the ramp and get the audience going and pumped up.

The bell rings, Imogen and Morgan start.

Valencia: And if you'd all shut up a second, we have an announcement. Give a warm welcome to another new member of Zora Luthor International... PG-13!!

 

The now former Pen Gwen lowers her hood to boos.

 

 

PG-13: Do you think I really give a meow what you idiots think? A while ago, my former partner Puffin Pam made a point that I thought at one point was cynical and heartless, but it turns out she was right and those aren't bad things to be. Running around in animal costumes is for children, and it's time I remembered I am a grown-ass woman. The penguin is dead. 

 

They boo, she smirks, and ZLI raises her hand.

 

Kendra: Well, ZLI still has some pull after all, and now they've brought another fan favorite into their orbit. We'll see how this plays out.

 

ZLI walks out almost as if it's a grand parade.

LESNAR AND LA SANGRE MALDITA VS RABIA SAGRIENTE AND BLOOD DRAWN

 

Ash: The following is an elimination tag match!

 

 

Lesnar stomps out to boos. Fireworks go off on the apron.

 

 

Ash: First! From Minneapolis, Minnesota, weighing in at 286 pounds, LESNAR!!!

 

Lesnar storms down to the ring. 

 

Kendra: Big man's gonna have to fight his wife today.

 

Lesnar does a boxing hop then jumps up onto the apron and enters the ring, creaking his neck. 

 

 

Ralph Silva approaches the stage, flanked by Sombras, Aerial Assassin Shawn Harris, and Superstar Davy Boy, carrying the Legacy Title on his shoulder.

 

 

Ralph: China, my name is El Orrrrrrrrrrrador, Ralph Silva! And I am here to introduce you to your saviors, and the men who have honored Lesnar with their presence. The Phantom of Shadows, Sombras. The Aerial Assassin, Shawn Harris. And of course, your Legacy Champiiiiiiion SUPERSTAR DAVY BOY!!! The all new, all improved, no weak link and no wasted movement, La SANGRRRRRRE MALDITA 3.0!!!

 

The three strut down to the ring, with Superstar holding his title up high. 

 

Simon: This is as disjointed a unit as I've seen in some time. The three men there carry the name of a team that had at one time been two eternal brothers, but even the man whose name makes up most of the team is on the opposite end of this fight. Truly, it's a wild time to be alive.

 

Kendra: I hate to agree with you this much but you can even hear it in Silva's voice, like he's not believing what he's selling. 

 

Arvin: If that's even Silva.

 

Kendra: Here we go. 

 

Arvin: I'm just saying, he's not exuding that raw sex-dripping charisma, he did a Paul Heyman entrance which didn't feel right for him, and just last week he was talking about taking over Frequency, disappeared without a trace and doesn't even bring it up today when Frequency staff and talent have no idea what's happening to them? I'm just saying, that's likely a stunt double who didn't do his homework.

 

Simon: Huh. 

 

The arena goes dark, and the sound of a slow, ominous drumbeat fills the air before this theme music begins.

 

 

A blood-red spotlight illuminates the stage as Blood Drawn slowly makes his way to the ring. 

 

 

Ash: AND THEIR OPPONENTS! First, from Bloodhaven, weighing in at 285 pounds, BLOOD DRAWN!

 

He stares down the crowd with cold, predatory eyes before stepping into the ring and roaring to signal his dominance.

 

The lights go out. The sounds of clocks ticking and owls hooting fill the arena. 

 

 

Small lights flash around the arena in the experience of thunder... 

 

 

Rena Terror comes out first with the microphone in her hand. The clocks continue ticking and effectively music stops-

 

Rena: Oh, lover, lover, lover. You foolishly throw your lot in with a sinking ship with rats running in different directions and constantly into each other, a bunch of drunken sailors who've plastered a name on the side of the boat but have no idea what it means as if it's a tribal tattoo. But of course you did. I've always been the brains of our relationship and you've been the lumbering dog that I tell where to pee and what to eat. You're lost without me and these equally lost lumbering loser hounds are just going to direct you right into a bomb test site. And baby, I'm the bomb that's gonna drop on you. But not just me, but these fine specimens of pure, unadulterated RAGE that squirrel deep inside your pain, rotting out your guts and destroying you from within the caverns of flesh that comprise your fast decaying body. These, lover, are what REAL men look like. Vessels of Wrath, Blood Collectors, coming from you. MAL SANGRE, RADE, AND I, RENA TERROR, ARE RRRRRRRRRRABIA SAGRRRRRRRRRRIENTE!!!!

 

The music picks up as Rade and Mal Sangre spit blood up into the sky, with Rena basking in the rain of it laughing. The three of them stalk down the ring, and Rade and Mal Sangre raise Rena up and carry her over the ropes, before stepping over the top rope herself.

 

The bell rings.

 

Simon: Lesnar and Blood Drawn to start. Lesnar Irish Whips Blood Drawn, Blood Drawn comes back around with a spinning back elbow. Drawn grabs Lesnar up and a scoop slam. Lesnar rolls to his feet and lariat back! Blood Drawn staggers back a little but not much movement, Lesnar coming for a second BLOOD DRAWN WITH A SPINEBUSTER! 

 

Kendra: Lesnar choosing not to just get up, but to scoop Blood Drawn on his shoulders... F-5!!! 

 

Erica: ONE! TWO! 

 

Arvin: Rena with the save!! Lesnar with a harsh face punch on his way up and goes for a tag to Shawn Harris. Harris with a standing dropkick, Blood Drawn staggering a bit, Harris tag to Sombras and Sombras off the top, Springboard DDT! Blood Drawn tag into Mal Sangre and this is what we've all been wanting to see!

 

Kendra: Brother vs Brother, Sangre with a one-arm backbreaker to Sombras!! Going for a Stomp, SOMBRAS DOES THE VANISHING ACT, SPRINGBOARD CUTTER!!! PHANTOM'S EMBRACE!!! GOING FOR A PIN-

 

Erica: ONE! TWO!

 

Simon: Mal Sangre with a reversal!! 

 

Erica: ONE! 

 

Kendra: Kick out by Sombras, and we continue ANOTHER PHANTOM'S EMBRACE!!! 

 

Erica: ONE!

 

Arvin: Sangre barely gets the shoulder up, and Sombras getting steamed. Quick punches by Sombras, and a DDT to Mal. 

 

Simon: Sombras with a run and elbow drop keeping the pressure on. Sangre with the hot tag to Rena, Rena with a jumping wheel kick to Sombras! Rena quickly scurries to her corner and HERE COMES RADE!

Erica: ONE! TWO!

 

Arvin: RENA REVERSES!!!

 

Erica: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

Superstar Davy Boy is eliminated by Rena Terror!

 

Kendra: WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED??

 

Lesnar enters the match.

 

Simon: The married couple stares each other down. RENA LOW BLOWS LESNAR! Off the ropes...AXE KICK TO LESNAR! But he hooks the leg and rolls her up-

 

Erica: ONE!

 

Arvin: RENA REVERSES AGAIN!! But Lesnar kicks. And Rena with a huge chop to Lesnar's throat. And she brings him down with a Package Piledriver!! Lesnar headbutts her off and is heading for a tag, she cuts it off with another low blow!! To the top rope, STOMP!!!

 

Simon: Rena with a jumping splash and goes for the cover-

 

Erica: ONE!

 

Simon: Lesnar kicks. Rena with a leg lock and pushing on Lesnar's crotch, and that's gonna be a tapout for Lesnar!! I never thought I'd see the day!

 

Lesnar is eliminated by Rena Terror!

 

Aerial Assassin Shawn Harris enters the ring.

 

Kendra: La Sangre's hopes are pinned on this newest member, Rena tags in Blood Drawn and he drops Harris with a running shoulder block, Harris rolls back and kips up with a jawbreaker! Blood Drawn throws Harris into his corner and tags in Rena, Rena with an eye rake and an exploder suplex!!
