JANUARY 9, 2026
HELSINKI, FINLAND

HELSINKI OLYMPIC STADIUM

 

Fireworks go off as "Cha, Cha, Cha" plays in Helsinki Olympic Stadium.

 

 

Colin: Welcome back to the W2!!! I'm Colin McRae with the amazing announcing team from Gung Ho, Sherman Grace and Valerie Thomas. We are back with the B group, where many of our guests from all over the wrestleverse have converged. Day 1 in the B group had some huge surprises related to these myriad X-Factors.

 

 

Sherman: You're not wrong, Colin. Tamara Rivers got absolutely clowned by El Señor Pikachu, and Dan Hammer got robbed by Sex Appeal's antics. If he's smart, he'll show up with his posse today and prevent that from happening again. 

 

 

Valerie: At the very least, take a lesson from his cohorts of Path DefJam and Jared Scythe and get in get out with a quickness.

 

Colin: He and Rufus are going to be trying to prevent their single loss from becoming a pattern, with several matches in each group in the same boat including in a shocker Rade, and our first match of the night, Wonderwolf vs Vain Plato.

 

Sherman: You forgot to call him beautiful.

 

Colin: I'll call him beautiful when he wins a match.

 

VAIN PLATO VS WONDERWOLF

 

 

Ash: The following contest is scheduled for One Fall!!

 

Crowd: ONE FALL!

 

 

Vain Plato walks to the stage with a montage played on the Platotron5000 of Plato’s most beautiful posing moments.

 

 

Ash: FIRST! Born in Rome, Italy but reisiding in Las Vegas, weighing in at 260 pounds.... The BEAUTIFUL ONE, VAIN PLATO!

 

Plato turns his back to the crowd, the arena goes dark and a spotlight appears over him. Plato starts to muscle pose whilst holographic roses appear on the walls.

 

Sherman: Well, at least Ash got it right.

 

Colin: They're reading off their provided cards. 

 

Plato then walks to the ring and the lights turn back on and Plato stands in the center of the ring and begins to gyrate and blows a kiss at the camera.

 

 

 Arena Lights go out, while heavy fog starts filling the entrance ramp, Wonderwolf's logo flashes over the screen, and an introductory video starts playing, as Wonderwolf makes his way to the ring with his entrance music.

 

 

Ash: And his opponent! From Amsterdam, Netherlands, weighing at 200 pounds, WONDERWOLF!

 

The light go out and a spotlight hits the center of the ring where Wonderwolf starts howling.

 

The bell rings!

 

Colin: Vain Plato going right for a Superkick and Wonderwolf ducks, grabs the leg, and an ankle lock! Vain reaching for the ropes, Wonderwolf pulls him to the center and Plato with an enzuigiri! 

 

Sherman: Wonder to his feet and Vain catches him out with an Atomic Drop, off the ropes and a DDT! Better get prepared to use the big B, Colin.

 

Colin: Not over until Vain Plato sings. 

 

Valerie: Isn't the phrase the f...oh you're mean. Vain picks Wonder up and a backbreaker! Going to the legs and a Sharpshooter! Wonder now trying to get to the ropes, and he's successful! Vain refusing to break the hold..

 

 

Lisa: ONE! TWO! THREE! F-

 

Sherman: Vain lets go, Wonder using the ropes, and a Diving Headbutt to gain control of the match! Wonder with a Fisherman DDT, and getting that Kimura locked in, or as we know it, the Wolf Lock!! 

 

Valerie: Vain trying to get himself to the ropes, once again finding himself in peril, getting the legs close, and he pushes himself off with the leg to a form of lateral press-

 

Lisa: ONE! TWO!

 

Colin: WONDERWOLF ROLLS HIM INTO A SIDE CRADLE!!

 

Lisa: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

Wonderwolf wins by Pinfall!

 

 

Ash: Here is your winner, WONDERWOLF!! 

 

Colin: Guess I still won't have to call him Beautiful. Ohhhh well. 

 

Valerie: And on we go to the next match.

 

Sherman: And this is going from two people trying to avoid the 0-2 to two people seeking a 2-0. 

 

SLANG DANG VS STORM RIDER

 

Ash: The following contest is scheduled for One Fall!

 

Crowd: ONE FALL!

 

 

Storm Rider steps onto the stage and just keeps moving, eyes locked firmly on the ring.

 

 

Ash: First! From New Islington, Manchester, England, weighing in at 190 pounds, STORM RIDER!

 

Sherman: After he shut down everyone's favorite overrated wrestler Steve Thunder last time, Storm Ride is going headfirst into this match full of worthy confidence.

 

Some fans cheer, some boo, but Storm Rider doesn't care as he rolls into the ring.

 

 

Slang Dang walks out of the gate hyping up the crowd, he taps the left wrist with his right hand. When he is done, he points to the ring and smirks, and an “X” pyro explode from turnbuckle to turnbuckle.

 

 

Ash: And his opponent! From The Dog House, weighing in at 180 pounds, SLANG DANG!

 

He walks to the ring clapping the hands to his fans.

 

Colin: After his statement win against Moon last time, the fans are just that much more excited.

 

The bell rings!

 

Valerie: Storm Rider is right in with the bell and absolutely wastes no time just BLASTING Slang Dang with hooks, showing him how they do it in England, and Uppercut! Irish Whipping Slang Dang and catching him out with a Powerbomb! Going for a quick pin-

 

 

Jenny: ONE!

 

Sherman: Slang gets the shoulder up, and that's gonna end the pin but Storm lifts himself up just enough and then right back down with a flurry of mounted punches. Slang's gonna have a real hard time if he can't get it together.

 

Valerie: Slang with a Monkey Flip, bouncing up to his feet and blasts Storm with a Spinning Wheel Kick! It's the same Spinning Wheel Kick that started to end Moon's night. Keeping it running, Storm to his feet and Slang blasts him with a DDT! Up to the top rope and going for the 450 Splash! OH STORM ROLLS OUT OF THE WAY! Scraping Slang off the mat and a German Suplex!!

 

Colin: Going for another German, Slang jumps back and lands on his feet and it's his time to pull it off!! Going from one German, making it two... here we go for number 3... and the pin! 

 

Jenny: ONE! T-

 

Sherman: Storm able to roll himself back, going for a run backward, but Slang gets him with a back body drop! Storm gets Slang with some chops at the ankles to unground him, back to his feet and gets Slang up into a Samoan Drop! Looking for a pin but Slang rolls it back into a side cradle!!

 

Jenny: ONE! TWO! 

 

Valerie: Storm gets the shoulder up and the pin is broken. These two are really showing themselves to be evenly matched here, I think it's going to come down to who can get the big move or make the big mistake. 

 

Colin: I think you're right, and I couldn't tell you who that was going to be. Storm Rider drives Slang Dang down with a bulldog. Scoops him up and a bodyslam, and I think he's gonna go for that Third Rope Splash of his!! SLANG ROLLS OUT OF THE WAY!!

 

Sherman: There's that big mistake, and Slang gets him up... DANG A SLANG SLAM!!!! 

 

Jenny: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

Slang Dang wins by Pinfall!

 

 

Ash: Here is your winner, SLANG DANG!

 

Colin: Slang walks out of this match with the 2-0! Storm's Dreamz are killed for this match but he still has time to come back from this.

 

Sherman: Not too much else to say about this match, we keep it moving. 

 

Valerie: And it's two people that weren't originally scheduled.

 

DAMIAN BLACKHEART VS ROSALINA RAMOS

 

Ash: The following contest is scheduled for One Fall!

 

Crowd: ONE FALL!

 

 

Fog machine, candles and 18th century street lamps adorn the entrance way. Titantron/screen shows images of leeches, pre-20th century surgery, anatomical drawings, plus short video clips of Blackheart performing submission moves and ringing a hand bell in full plague doctor uniform.

 

 

Ash: First! From the Silk Road, London, weighing 228 pounds, one half of Spirit Crusher...the Empiric, Damian Blackheart!! 

 

Damian puffs his pipe as he walks down to the ring. 

 

Sherman: Damian dispatched of the mighty Rade, as you said earlier, in his first match. And now he's going to face off against Rosalina Ramos.

 

Damian enters the ring and removes his hat, snuffs out his pipe.

 

 

Rosalina Ramos walks out holding a black rose.

 

 

Ash: And his opponent... from Miami, Florida, ROSALINA RAMOS!!

 

Valerie: Rosalina Ramos had a rough go in her first match but she seems perky and ready to go for this second match.

 

Rosalina walks with a bit of a skip to the ring then rolls in and offers Damian the rose. 

 

The bell rings!

 

Sherman: Damian takes the rose AND HER WRIST... DRAGS HER CLOSE AND INTO A BRAINBUSTER!!! PLAGUEBRINGER!!! 

 

 

Carter: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

Damian Blackheart wins by Pinfall!

 

 

Ash: Here is your winner! THE EMPIRIC, DAMIAN BLACKHEART!!

 

Colin: Well, that didn't work out for her. 

 

Valerie: Sure didn't, and now Damian is up 2-0 and Rosalina is in the hole 0-2. 

 

Sherman: So we keep it going, and it's our first match in the Silver Group.

 

TREVOR DEMARTIN VS MATT MARTIGON

 

Ash: The following contest is scheduled for One Fall!

 

Crowd: ONE FALL!

 

 

Trevor DeMartin steps out grimacing.

 

 

Ash: FIRST! From Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada, weighing in at 245 pounds, representing Riot Block, the Surliest Man in Saskatoon, Trevor DeMartin!

 

Trevor stomps down the ramp threatening occasionally to backhand a fan.

 

Sherman: He's even angrier from his first loss, and he's here for vindication and revenge. 

 

 

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 occasionally stops to interact with fans at ring side but focuses mostly in the ring. 

 

The bell rings!

 

Valerie: Matt and Trevor immediately rushing in and unloading on each other, headlocks into fists and fists into faces. Trevor switching it up with his hands into the chin of Matt and Matt going for the temple. 

 

Sherman: We have here probably two of the angriest men in this entire federation, at the very least in this event, and they're showing serious Brawl For All energy here. This is more of a boxing match right now than a wrestling one but the fans still seem pretty locked in and Martigon puts some distance between them with a European Uppercut!

 

Colin: Trevor staggers back, Martigon blasts him with a jumping roundhouse! Trevor hits the ground, Matt grabs the ankle for an ankle lock but Trevor pushes him away. Trevor back to his feet, charging in for a shoulder block and coming in on the offensive with a boxing combo MATT LAUNCHES HIM OUT OF THE RING! 

 

 

DeAndra: ONE! TWO! 

 

Sherman: Trevor trying to make his way onto the apron and Matt boots Trevor back down.

 

DeAndra: THREE! FOUR!

 

Valerie: Trevor was pushed pretty far back, but he's trying to shake it off.

 

DeAndra: FIVE! SIX! SEVEN!

 

One Asshole in the Audience: DOOT DOOT!

 

Colin: That irritated Trevor, and he's lost focus of the match!

 

Trevor: Do that stupid meow one more time.

 

DeAndra: EIGHT! NINE!

 

Sherman: Trevor's irritation may have just cost him the match!! 

 

DeAndra: TEN!

 

Matt Martigon wins by Count Out!

 

 

Ash: Here is your winner, The Wicked Deadly, MATT MARTIGON!

 

Sherman: And Trevor just realized that his anger has ruined this moment for him! He charges into the ring and gets in DeAndra's face MATT MARTIGON BLASTS HIM WITH A MIDKICK!!! CHAOTIC NEUTRAL SPINNING IMPALER DDT!!!

 

Colin: Well the crowd most certainly appreciated that. And the beat goes on, as we head back to the Air Group.

 

YULETIDE VS IRIS CORREA

 

Ash: The following contest is scheduled for one fall!

Crowd: ONE FALL!

 

 

Snow falls on the Finland Arena. Yuletide walks out carrying his heavier looking bag of gifts on a "sled", with a jolly but determined look in his eyes.

 

 

Ash: And his opponent! From North Pole, Alaska, weighing in at 220 pounds, YULE-

 

Suddenly out of Yuletide's bag pop-

 

 

- Sex Appeal! They beat the living hell out of Yuletide!

 

Colin: OH MY GOD! THIS IS TERRIBLE! 

 

Sherman: ZLI have each others' backs, COLIN. Why's that make you so mad? That Bianca finally found people on her level?

 

Valerie: Well, Sex Appeal are going directly on the Naughty List, and they each have a limb of Yuletide! Toss him into the ring, and FOUR PLAY POWERBOMB!!! 

 

Lisa beckons Sex Appeal out of the ring save Iris. The bell rings!

 

Colin: Iris with the pin to steal the win.

 

Lisa: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

Iris Correa wins by Pinfall!

 

 

Ash: Here is your winner, The Eye Candy, IRIS CORREA!

 

Sherman: And Sex Appeal aren't done yet! They're going for a full on beatdown on the Jolly Warrior!! The kids in the audience are starting to cry!

 

Valerie: This is exactly what Daria told Yuletide in their last match at Path would happen, and she couldn't get it done there but she's sure putting toes to misels now... HERE COMES THE CAVALRY! 

 

 

Colin: We saw this dynamic in Path and now it's playing out here... Manifestation of Defenestration is out here! And they're starting to fight back against Sex Appeal but the numbers game is still working against WHO THE HELL IS COMING OUT WITH SUGAR COOKI! Sure as hell isn't Syndy Sweet or Sprinkl!!

 

 

Sherman: His trunks read Cinnaman, and they've just turned the numbers game in Yule's favor!! Sex Appeal is actually outnumbered and this is just getting out of hand again-

 

 

Valerie: Oh this is about to get even worse for Sex Ap-SHE JUST SOCKED SUGAR COOKI!!! I DON'T KNOW IF SHE'S LOOKING TO JOIN SEX APPEAL BUT THIS IS THE END OF SUGARKOMA!!! WE GOT A 5 ON 5 BRAWL ON OUR HANDS HERE!!! And Colin is stepping in the ring-oh, what're you doing bud?

 

Colin: Since you're all so intent on fighting, and Yuletide was robbed of his match, we'll be back to our scheduled W-2 AFTER this 5 on 5 Elimination Tag!!

 

ELIMINATION TAG

SEX APPEAL + SYNFUL SYNDY SWEET VS YULETIDE, SUGAR COOKI, CINNAMAN, + MANIFESTATION OF DEFENESTRATION

 

Ding ding ding!

 

Yuletide and Iris start. 

 

Valerie: Yuletide's gonna get his chance to get his hands on Iris after all and drops her down with a ripcord lariat! A stomp and scoops her up... taking a run and a beautiful Samoan Drop to her!! He's going up to the top, and it looks like we're going for an early Ride... SLEIGH RIDE DDT!!! 

 

Lisa: ONE!

 

Sherman: Jassy with the save and breaks up the pin. Iris tries to get him in a headlock but Yule back body drops her! IRIS RINGS HIS SILVER BELLS WITH A KICK AND A BULLDOG! Lisa warns Iris SUGAR ROLLS YULE A STRING OF SLEIGH BELLS AND YULE PALMS THEM... KNUCKLE PUNCH TO IRIS AND THE CROWD CHEERING BLOCKS THE NOISE OF THE BELLS!!! Going for the pin-

 

Lisa: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

Yuletide eliminates Iris Correa!

 

Colin: What an assist to the crowd.

 

Syndy Sweet enters the match.

 

Valerie: Sweet takes initiative, hoping perhaps to get noticed for it by Sex Appeal, and jumps in with a Sunset Flip Powerbomb for a quick cover but Yule doesn't give her the one. Yule scoops her up for a bodyslam but Sweet gets her legs around his head! Headscissors and a cover-

 

Lisa: ONE!

 

Colin: Yule kicks again, and a headbutt on his way up. Sweet rolls back and is coming for a standing dropkick but Yule gets her by the feet and big swing!! 

 

Sherman: She lands in her own corner, tag to Bianca, Bianca runs at him and a dropkick. Bianca gets him with an enzuigiri and double foot stomp to his face! Pulls him up by his beard and has the dragon headlock... like a Cross Rhodes but in Reverse! That's some BDE!!! And the pin attempt but Sugar breaks it up before the 1!

 

Valerie: Bianca lets the pin go but pulls Yuletide's beard and punches to the face! And she slams his head into the ground by his beard!! 

 

Sherman: You gotta use what you got. Bianca lays a legdrop across his throat and going for a pin but Yuletide kicks. 

 

Colin: That was a really arrogant pin attempt, Yule gets the sleigh bells and CLOCKS Bianca!! Going for a pin BUT BIANCA REVERSES!

 

Lisa: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

Bianca Diaz eliminates Yuletide!

 

Valerie: Are they aware this is a tag match? And that in said matches you can tag?

 

 Gilbert Glass enters the match.

 

Colin: Gilbert walks right into her Superkick!! Siren Song!!! Pin attempt-

 

Lisa: ONE! TWO!

 

Valerie: He gets his shoulder up, and she jumps up... knee drop to the neck! Pulls him up...BDE!!! Going for a pin-

 

Lisa: ONE!

 

Sherman: Perry interrupts the count! And as soon as he rolls out she responds with ANOTHER BDE!!!!

 

Lisa: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

Bianca Diaz eliminates Gilbert Glass!

 

Valerie: On a long enough timeline, everyone's survival rate drops to zero.

 

Perry Payne enters the match. 

 

Colin: Here's the other half. Bianca tries the same move with Perry, he slides under and gets her with a basement kick taking her off her feet. He gets the crowd going, don't take your eyes off her, he swings around and she jabs him in the throat!! Sitout Jawbreaker!! She calls that DONE TALKING! Going for the pin but Perry gets his shoulder up. Bianca tries for an Irish Whip... Perry reverses the Irish Whip! Bianca coming back around POP UP BLUE THUNDER BOMB!!! PERRYWINKLE!!!! 

 

Lisa: ONE!

 

Sherman: Daria rescues Bianca! Perry with the face punch as he lets go of the pin, before he can get up she trips him! Getting on his back and locking in the Camel Clutch...and holds his mouth open with her hands!! Another reference to her commentary days, the No Comment!  Perry is struggling pretty significantly, Sugar and Cinna pulling Perry's legs towards the ropes but Bianca's got this in tight and Gilbert is there to help this tug of war, Perry's foot makes it to the rope! 

 

Valerie: That's big teamwork, Sherm.

 

Sherman: I have to admit it but you're not wrong. Bianca breaks the hold, the team lets Perry's legs go and Bianca immediately rolls him up! And there's Gilbert to interrupt it again.

 

Colin: Gilbert's smart not to leave ringside, same as Yule. You never know if ZLI is going to pop out of the woodwork. Perry slides behind Bianca and a German Suplex and rolling into another one bringing her to the center of the ring!

 

Lisa: ONE! TWO! TH-

 

Valerie: Bianca reverses the roll! And Perry kicks out of her pin. She gets him with a snap suplex, bridging for another pin attempt-

 

Lisa: ONE!

 

Colin: Still no good, he gets his shoulder up, she still has him locked up and moves her arms into Fisher position...going for a spin...BUENOS DIAS! The Spinning Fisherman Buster!!!

 

Lisa: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

Bianca Diaz eliminates Perry Payne!

 

Sherman: You gotta admit, Colin, your former announcer is now in her best era.

 

Colin: I admit nothing. 

 

Cinnaman enters the match.

 

Valerie: We're gonna see this new man fight! And Bianca already gets him with an arm whip, and blasts him with the Siren Song!! 

 

Lisa: ONE! TWO!

 

Colin: That would have been a quick end, but Cinna gets his shoulder up and immediately gets her with a snap suplex! 

 

Lisa: ONE! T-

 

Sherman: She gets her shoulder up. You got three people in this match Bianca, you should tag. And Cinna with a headscissors!! Right to his feet, spinning Double Underhook DDT! Cinnaman Swirl!! Going for a pin-

 

Lisa: ONE! 

 

Colin: Bianca reverses!!! And Cinna kicks and the tag to Sugar. Sugar comin' in hot with a floatover DDT! Bianca catches her on the landing with a Spinebuster! Gets her up by the legs and Alabama Slam! The cover, and Jassy and Daria blocking Cinna! SWEET HOLDING SUGAR DOWN!

 

Lisa: ONE! TWO! THREE! 

 

Bianca Diaz eliminates Sugar Cooki!

 

Valerie: And it's down to 4 on 1. Can Cinnaman persevere? NO, Bianca tags Jassy in and here comes the whole team... FOUR PLAY POWERBOMB!!! Jassy covers-

 

Lisa: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

Jassy eliminates Cinnaman! Sex Appeal + Syndy Sweet win!

 

 

Ash: Here are your winners, SEX APPEAL AND SYNFUL SYNDY SWEET!

 

Sweet: Does this mean I'm in??

 

Daria: We'll... let you know.

 

Sex Appeal flounces off, Syndy trying to catch up close behind. After a moment, Manifestation, Cinna, and Sugar help up Yuletide to cheers. 

 

Valerie: Despite the double robbery, this crowd is still firmly behind Yuletide.

 

Colin: It's a fascinating full circle here too... Bianca and I at this event last year saw and called Syndy's betrayal to join up with Sugar Cooki. And here today we see that same dynamic with her ending that very relationship in no uncertain terms. I doubt that ZLI will honor her efforts, but that's just my cynicism towards them writ large. 

 

Sherman: Well, if Sex Appeal doesn't take her I'm sure Zora will.

 

Colin: That's a lot of faith to put in Zora Luthor. 

 

Valerie: And now we go back to our regular schedule, unless Colin you have a further surprise for us.

 

Colin: No, we're back on track. 

 

STING RAY STEVE THUNDER VS TYLER HAYES

 

Ash: The following contest is scheduled for One Fall!

 

Crowd: ONE FALL!

 

 

 Lights go out before his music hits, then the Pretender is blasted through the stadium with Yellow & Green lights floating over the crowd. When ready the lights will meet directly at the top of the crowd.

 

 

Ash: First! From Adelaide, Australia, weighing in at 220 pounds, TYLER HAYES!!

 

Where Tyler is standing proud. He makes his way down through the crowd making sure to shake hands with anyone who wants it. He signs an autograph for a fan at the front of the barrier, jumps over the barricade and does a lap of the ring smacking the crowds hands as he comes around, he shakes hands with the commentators, slides into the ring and shakes hands with the ref, and leans back on to the turnbuckle waiting for his opponent.

 

Sherman: Hayes kicked this half of the event with a solid win against DX Royal, and he goes into this with momentum on his side. Honestly this should be an easy win for him. Of course these maroons won't care and they'll go apeshit for this guy any way.

 

 

Sure enough 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. Steve 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.

 

Valerie: There's something to be said for comebacks, and he's a man known for his comebacks.

 

Ash: AND HIS OPPONENT!!!! FROM SLAUGHTER BEACH, DELAWARE, WEIGHING IN AT 203 POUNDS, THE 2024 W2 CHAMPION.... STING! RAY! STEEEEEEEEVE! THUUUUUUUUUNDER!

 

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. 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.

 

Steve offers a handshake, Tyler takes it and the crowd cheers before Jenny separates them. The bell rings!

 

Colin: Earlier we had the two grouchiest men in the federation and now we have two of the most gregarious, with probably only Greg Arias being moreso. Tyler and Steve lock up, Tyler with a huge hip toss, Thunder bounces off the group, kips right up and a front dropkick! Thunder taking a run back, comes with a dash, cartwheel and a moonsault! Momentum a little too much and he lands on Tyler but can't stop for the pin and rolls back, keeps the motion going with a run to the other side and cartwheel again, this one to a leg drop! Looking for an early pin, trying to adjust to get the leg hooked and Tyler has his shoulder up.

 

Sherman: Thunder off, Tyler with a back body drop and Thunder lands a bit rougher this time, but rolls out to the apron and looking for a springboard clothesline TYLER CATCHES HIM AND FRONT SLAM! Tyler goes for the pin-

 

Jenny: ONE!

 

Valerie: Shoulder up by Thunder to break the count, and log rolls away from Tyler. 

 

Colin: Smart play by Thunder, he knows too much time on the ground with Tyler puts all of his limbs at risk. Thunder up and Tyler already running at him, back elbow puts Thunder up against the ropes. Arm drag to the center by Hayes and locks in the armbar. 

 

Valerie: And smart on Hayes, he's catching on that any runway for Steve is going to be dangerous so rather than go for the Irish Whip he decides to keep him close. Thunder attempting to flip to his feet but Tyler keeps the armbar locked in and is moving with it, grounding this match. 

 

Sherman: Steve would have to break his own arm to get out of this hold. Hayes keeping the pressure on, Thunder trying to contort his body to get out of this, you can see the calculations running in his brain and up come the legs, looking for a headscissors and Thunder has NO Tyler reversing into a running powerslam NO THUNDER SLIDES BEHIND HIM AND PUSHES HIM AGAINST THE ROPES, ROLLING HIM BACK AND AN O'CONNOR ROLL!

 

Jenny: ONE!

 

Colin: Tyler pushes out of the pin and a German Suplex to Thunder! 

 

Jenny: ONE!

 

Valerie: Thunder out with a back roll, loading back on the ropes Tyler catches him with a judo flip NO THUNDER LANDS ON HIS FEET AND DROPSAULT GOING UP FOR THE SPRINGBOARD AND SHOOTING STAR C-NO! TYLER CATCHES FOR A BACK SUPLEX AND A PIN!

 

Jenny: ONE! TWO!

 

Colin: Thunder rolls away, both of these men would be wise to alter their gameplan.

 

Sherman: Or to have one at all, it seems like they're both playing a reactive game.

 

Valerie: Thunder and Tyler looking at each other, sizing up the situation, and back to lock-up, Thunder puts himself in a significant disadvantage by doing this with Hayes, Hayes overpowering him and going for a Camel Clutch, smart move keeping more of the limbs locked up, keeping his movement to an absolute minimum, Thunder is starting to fade a bit and Tyler could have this OH WAIT Thunder is using his fading to his advantage and slides under, Poison Rana and going for a pin but Tyler is too close to the ropes, and pin broken.

 

Sherman: Thunder taking it in stride, rides to the ropes, he's going for the Shooting Star Cutter again and VENOM SPIKE TO TYLER HAYES!!! 

 

Jenny: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

Sting Ray Steve Thunder wins by Pinfall!

 

 

Ash: Here is your winner, STING RAY STEVE THUNDER!

 

Steve helps Tyler up and they hug. Thunder signals for two boots, which are tossed into the ring. He gets two beers tossed in and they set up a Shoey! 

 

Colin: There's a good natured way to end a match.

 

Sherman: Oh boo. Beat each other up!

 

Valerie: Nah, it looks like we're just going to our next match, as Cellula is already in the ring.

 

 

CELLULA VS LYNX

 

Ash: The following contest is scheduled for One Fall!

 

Crowd: ONE FALL!

 

Ash: Already in the ring, from Baltimora, Maryland, weighing in at 175 pounds, CELLULA!

 

 

The audience sings along as Lynx walks out getting the crowd pumped. 

 

 

Ash: AND HIS OPPONENT! From the Bialowieza Forest, Poland, weighing in at 205 pounds, LYNX!!

 

Lynx runs to the ring and flips in, and right into the arms of Cellula as the bell rings! 

 

Colin: Right into the Ghost Step Spinebuster! And he's goin' down!

 

Carter: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

Cellula wins by Pinfall!

 

 

Ash: Here is your winner!! CELLULA!! 

 

Sherman: In one fell swoop, Cellula stops his own slide and steepens Lynx's. Our next match is two people in a similar predicament.

 

DANTE RIVERA VS JEANNIE ROSE

 

Ash: The following contest is scheduled for One Fall!

 

Crowd: ONE FALL!

 

 

A burning X fills the Titan tron as Start The Shooting by A Day To Remember starts blasting. Dante steps out menacingly, like a bandit looking for trouble.

 

 

Ash: First! From Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, weighing in at 205 pounds, one half of X-Treme Society, DANTE RIVERA!!! 

 

He stops at the top of the ramp as the Titan tron starts displaying ‘Watch your step’ in burning letters as the chorus plays. As Dante walks down the ramp, pyro goes off on either side of the ramp with each step. After a few he stomps triggering the stage to fill with fire. 

 

Colin: All of the Scythes lost their first match and so did Dante. All of them won their second match, can Dante once again follow in their footsteps?

 

He walks down the ramp and to the ring, jumping onto the apron and climbing through the ropes. He stands in the center of the ring, slowly removing his shades from his face. He eyes fixed on the camera (or opponent). He tosses the shades to the side and stomps hard onto the mat, setting off flames on all four corners of the ring.

 

Jeannie 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 costume and does a Sailor Moon pose.

 

Ash: And his opponent! From London, England, JEAAAAANNIE! ROSE!!!

 

Fireworks go off behind her, and she skips to the ring, climbing up onto the turnbuckle and backflipping off into the ring, doing a super hero landing.

 

Colin: Jeannie had the daunting task of fighting WildFire in her first go. Dante doesn't seem any less tough so this is going to be a hard go for her again.

 

The bell rings!

 

Valerie: Dante and Jeannie shake hands, another show of good sportsmanship, and breaking it off, and now into a tie-up, Dante getting the advantage, throwing some solid knees into the ribs of Jeannie Rose. Pushes her back, going for a spin kick JEANNIE WITH A SPLIT AND CATCHES HIM OUT WITH A GERMAN SUPLEX, DANTE BACKFLIPS AND LANDS ON HIS FEET, GOING FOR A GERMAN AND JEANNIE LANDS ON HER FEET, JEANNIE WITH HER OWN SPIN KICK BUT DANTE WITH THE BLOCK AND GOING FOR THE POWERBOMB! BOOOOM!

 

DeAndra: ONE! 

 

Sherman: Jeannie kicks out. Dante unloading with a flurry of kicks, Jeannie trying to evade but Dante is too quick, he comes off the ropes and SHE BLASTS HIM WITH THE SUPER DUPER KICK!!! 

 

DeAndra: ONE! TWO! TH-

 

Colin: DANTE BARELY GETS TO THE ROPES. JEANNIE PULLS HIM AWAY AND SHE GETS HIM UP.... JEANNIE-GO-ROUND!!! COMING OFF THE ROPES, SUPERGIRL PUNCH!

 

Sherman: Off the ropes, going for a knee drop but Dante is out of the way! Dante perches himself onto the turnbuckle, here we go and Jeannie up... Dante dives down and Tornado DDT!! Dante in the corner, he's looking for that Knee, looking to give Jeannie a Dirt Nap, here we go SHE DUCKS IT SUPER DUPER KICK!! The pin!

 

DeAndra: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

Jeannie Rose wins by Pinfall!

 

 

Ash: Here is your winner, JEANNIE ROSE!!

 

Colin: Jeannie's timing is impeccable but well fought battle on both accounts, and this now leaves Dante 2 in the hole. 

 

Sherman: Back into the Air we go, to keep this party running.

 

EL SEÑOR PIKACHU VS SCOTT RAZOR

 

Ash: The following contest is scheduled for One Fall!

 

Crowd: ONE FALL!

 

 

Ash: First, from France, representing RFDC, El SEÑOR PIKAAAAACHU!!!

 

Colin: Tamara Rivers underestimated ESP in her match, we'll see if Razor does the same or if he learns from her mistakes.

 

The camera’s return to Helsinki Olympic Stadium as the fans in attendance cheer in the excitement of being on TV. The lights in the arena progressively, but quickly dim until there is a slight darkness hanging over the arena. The opening riffs of “Wherever I May Roam” by Metallica begins to play from the speakers and plumes of smoke can be seen filling the centre of the stage.

 

 

The darkness remains through the intro, before the song drops and a spotlight shines on the center of the stage, revealing a silhouette of a man within the mist clutching a bat.

 

 

He lifts the bat and points it towards the ring, the tip of it emerging from the shroud. As the song picks up pace, he cuts through the smoke by swiping upwards and emerges from it, standing at the top of the stage as red and white lights weave their way around the crowd like serpents - who respond with feverish anticipation.

 

Ash: Introducing first, weighing in at 336 pounds, he is The Bully of Bullies - SCOOOOTTT RAAAAAZOOR!!

 

Colin: Welcome back Scott! Hope DCW is treating you good, but happy to have you on our soil again.

 

He begins to stride forward towards the ring confidently with his bat hanging over his shoulder. He calmly walks up the ring steps, entering the ring and faces each side of the arena with his bat raised in the air, shouting ferociously. He finally turns to face ESP.

 

Valerie: The two faces of their respective federations, Razor and Pikachu stand face to... well, not face, I guess, face to stomach? They stand ready to battle each other in the ring. 

 

The bell rings!

 

Sherman: Razor straight up punts Pikachu, Pikachu rolls back but gets the space to take a run at Razor, oh and Razor punts him again! It's like he's playing soccer with himself... oh, I'm sorry, "football." Football with himself in his backyard.

 

Valerie: We're still here all month, don't piss off the Football Fans. 

 

Colin: Pikachu is looking bruised up already, and I bet Razor is wishing this were a hardcore match so he could home run this dude into the stands with his trusty bat. But for now, he scoops him up, and a humungous bodyslam. Deadlifting him up, and dunking him back down with a chokeslam. Going for the pin-

 

Lisa: ONE!

 

Sherman: Pikachu gets his shoulder up! Little bastard don't know what's good for him. Well, Razor whips him off the ropes and just DEVASTATES HIM with a Big Boot. Pikachu struggling to his feet, Razor boots him and stomping him out! Going for the pin-

 

Lisa: ONE! T-

 

Valerie: Pika refuses to go down! Scott lifts him up all the way over head and DEVASTATES him with a Powerbomb! Lifts him up again and PANCAKED! A kick to Pika's midsection, and Scott's looking to get the arm-

 

 

Valerie: Oh Goddammit, all of Deck of Hearts is out here AGAIN. 

 

Colin: SM has made no bones about hating outsiders... despite you know, recruiting a bunch of 404 people... and now that Scott Razor is an outsider again, not only that but an outsider who's courting his son, he and his gang of ne'er-do-wells are showing Scott exactly what they think of him! Scott easily launches Rox Starr and Diana Dresden out!! Scott throws Con at Utterly Vile!! And now he's face to face with Violent and he's more alive than I've seen him all match.

 

Sherman: With absolutely no shade to ESP, Scott was seeking a fight more of this caliber, and he and Violent are throwing hands! Hands turn into headbutts! Neither man really willing to move a muscle but Lisa gets between them and directing the Deck out of the arena JEN TEAL WHACKS SCOTT RAZOR IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD WITH THE BRIEFCASE! SCOTT WOBBLIN' AND SM WITH AN INSTRUMENT OF DESTRUCTION!!! SCOTT GOES DOWN!!! JEN DUMPS THE COMPLETELY UNAWARE PIKACHU ON SCOTT AND THEY ALL CLEAR THE RING!!! 

 

Lisa: ONE! TWO! THREE!

 

El Señor Pikachu wins by Pinfall!

 

 

Ash: HERE IS YOUR WINNER, EL SEÑOR PIKACHU!!!

 

Colin: He looks like he has 0 idea what's happening right now, and trying to remember what he did to get the win. 

 

Sherman: You can be mad all you want about this turn of events, but a win is a win is a win.

 

Valerie: Well, Razor is coming to and looks like he's about to have words with the Deck of Hearts... personally I don't blame him. Colin, no offense when I say this... okay, maybe a tiny bit of offense... were we really ready to host everyone like this? The problems of last year are rearing their ugly heads again and now we have even more little cliques to worry about causing mayhem. 

 

Colin: Yeah, I think your point may be well-taken. 

 

Valerie: Well what do you plan to do about it, GM? 

 

Colin: We may need to reinstitute some sort of ring protection, or manager banning... maybe up security... I'm gonna need to think on it.

 

Sherman: Didn't you push against just that last year when Leila Blake wanted to do the same? 

 

Colin: Yeah, and then it got crazier and the company was almost taken over. Trying not to let THAT happen again. 

 

Valerie: Well, it's probably too short notice to do anything about it TODAY, but some policy would not be a bad idea. 

 

Colin walks to the ring.

 

Colin: Can I have everyone's attention please. Starting tomorrow, any wrestler in this event who interferes will be penalized one point per interference. Any MAWL roster not in this event who interferes will be barred from any title matches at Heart Condition and will be consigned to the kickoff show. Any non-MAWL roster in this event who interferes will not be invited back next year. These rules will apply to both the A and B days, so I hope you're all watching.

 

The crowd murmurs as Colin returns to the desk.

 

Valerie: Setting down the law. I'm proud of you. Despite the fact that today will potentially feel like the Purge, the law goes into effect and all are warned. 

 

Colin: I mean, do you think today will be that bad?

 

Moon is dropped from a rafter!

 

 

Valerie: No Colin, I think it'll probably be fine.

 

MOON VS SOPHIE DESIRE

 

Ash: The following...contest....is scheduled for One Fall. Already in the ring, from Pune, India, weighing in at 200 pounds, Moon.

 

 

The arena is plunged into darkness and a green pulsing light fills the arena, 'Killing in the Name' by Rage Against the Machine begins to play and out from the back appears the voluptuous figure of Sophie Desire. 

 

 

She poses seductively at the top of the ramp, playing with her long blonde curls and blowing kisses to the crowd.

 

Ash: And his opponent, hailing from Santa Monica, California.
Representing The Firm……..Standing 5 feet 5 inches tall and weighing in at 165lbs.
She is the ‘Suicide Blonde……… SOPHIE DESIRE!!!!!

 

The bell rings and Sophie immediately covers Moon.

 

Jenny: ONE. TWO. THREE.

 

Sophie Desire wins by Pinfall.

 

 

Ash: Here is your winner, the Suicide Blonde, Sophie Desire.

 

The crowd boos but Sophie poses like she just won an Iron Person match.

 

Colin: Ugh, what a joke. Let's... just move on. And maybe I'll make a Firm vs Moon and Solemn Guardian for next B-Day, give Moon a chance to heal up. Until then, who's our next match?

 

MARLA ANDERSON VS RADE

 

Ash: The following contest is scheduled for One Fall!

 

Crowd: ONE FALL!

 

 

The lavender lights have a chasing effect going upwards before starting from the bottom again, to the clap rhythm. Many in the audience clap and hum along with the opening. When Kele begins singing "Lord give me grace", Marla Anderson appears on the stage clapping along and going from left to right engaging the crowd in it.

 

 

As Kele sings "Is it so wrong" the lavender and white lights become a fast strobe, and Marla jogs down high fiving everyone. 

 

Ash: And his opponent, from Vancouver, Canada, True North MARLA ANDERSON!

 

Sherman: It's ironic that her song is "The Prayer" given that she doesn't have one in this match.

 

Colin: That's horrible. 

 

Sherman: But wrong?

 

As the chorus hits Marla baseball slides into the ring and climbs a turnbuckle, pointing to the sky at "Tonight make me unstoppable", with pyro of two upward arrows connecting so the rooves are fashioned like an M. The crowd goes wild.

 

The lights go completely out. The arena is filled with sounds of owls hooting and clocks ticking.

 

 

Red smiley faces show in hologram around the arena in time with the bell. Rena Terror steps out to the stage, illuminated only by the red glow in the dark mask that she removes from her face. Ash immediately holds their microphone down as they have learned by now their microphone is turned off.
