Crowd: SCW! SCW! SCW!
The first shot of the show that we see is a panning shot of the six thousand plus fans crowded within the Grand Canyon University Arena. Men and women, boys and girls, fans of all ages make up the SCW Universe and they are all showing their support for their favorite Superstars and Bombshells! And finally, the camera focuses on a close up shot of Justin Decent, standing inside of SCW's six-sided ring.
Justin: Hello everyone and welcome to the Grand Canyon University Arena in Phoenix, Arizona, and welcome to Sin City Wrestling "Climax Control"!
The crowd cheers!
Justin: Now please help me welcome the Hostess With the Mostess for "Climax Control" -- Miss Amanda Hugginkiss!
The fans cheer as Amanda bounces out, dressed to resemble Lucille Ball from the hit sitcom, "I Love Lucy" complete with red hair and a polka dot dress. The music starts to play and the comedic antics of Amanda begins.
Amanda: *giggles*
Oh nothing could be finer, than to have my own vagina
Well you'd pay cash if you want to touch this gash
It would cost a lot of money, but let me tell you honey
But my crotch begins to itch, and then to twitch!
Should I substitute erections for the chance at yeast infections?
And what if I felt nothing with tits of silicone stuffing?
Oh I am what I am!
For ladies who's just oozing, my manhood I'd be losing!
If a surgeon used a cleaver, to leave me with a beaver
My penis he'd detach
I could serve up quite a luncheon on my hair pie to be munched on
If I only had a snatch
I could catch me a pot of cash
Oh I'd be the perfect Venus if my arms would lose that penis
If I only had a snatch
Sorry! I hate to be so blunt
But a lady of the Millennium has to be up front
So no cash, no c*nt
I'm gonna get the tits to match
Why not? I'll be on the table. It's cheaper.
For all the money I'd be earning with the tricks I could be turning
If I only had that snatch
Getting neutered like a dog can really be a bitch!
Whooooooa!
A snippety snippety snitch!
Why is it all white transsexuals look like Barbara Eden?
With no ovaries to hatch?
A hole that's wet and hairy?
I'd have two! That's really scary!
If I got myself that snatch!
And what if they didn't match?
Oh they'd sag like weeping willows! I'd be stuck with dirty pillows!
If I got myself that snatch!
They're all gonna laugh at me!
I've never even seen a bearded clam!
So the first vagina that I'd ever taste, would be below my own waist!
Oh!
If I did I'd have to scratch!
So I'll just keep right on tucking
Use my booty for the f**king
If I only had a...
Ding Dong! I'll keep my schlong!
My big fat long and manly schlong!
Yes I'm going to keep my manly ... SCHLONG!
The crowd is in hysterics, laughing uproariously and cheering as Amanda prances about the stage, waving and blowing kisses to the crowd before disappearing behind the stage curtains.
The camera shot then transitions to the ringside area where we join Belinda Simone and Jason Adams at the broadcast table.
Simone: Hello everyone and welcome to the official 'Going Home's edition of Sin City Wrestling Climax Control!
Adams: Can you believe it, Bel?? Two weeks away from Blaze of Glory XII!? I'm so excited I could make a spot!
Simone: For the love of God, don't do that again! But you, like everyone else in the SCW Universe, has every right to be excited! Thirteen top matches in Flagstaff!
Adams: And tonight we put the finishing touches on the Road To Blaze of Glory XII!
Simone: And we are kicking things off in exciting fashion as Kat Jones is back on the active roster and she opens things up tonight against none other than Miss Manners!
Adams: Georgie Robertson sure made her presence felt in last week's Main Event when she laid out all three singles champions! And before her big match in Flagstaff, tonight she's fighting the Best of the Best aka Mercedes Vargas!
Simone: Erika Moore has been nothing short of phenomenal since her debut but tonight she goes up against one of the brightest stars in the Bombshell division, Ariana Angelos!
Adams: Goth has the chance of a lifetime at Blaze of Glory XII when he challenges Finn Whelan for the World Heavyweight titles, but his opponent tonight is the hardcore veteran Justin Smith who just might see to it Goth never makes it that far!
Simone: And speaking of golden opportunities, the veteran "Bulldog" Bill Barnhart has one this evening as he faces the Roulette Champion "Unbreakable" Eddie Lyons in a non-title match with a stipulation that should Bill win, can you go challenge for the gold in Flagstaff, Arizona on February 14th!
Adams: And tonight's main event is a taste test of what we're going to see at Blaze of Glory XII in the mixed tag team street fight! Alexander Raven has sunk to a new low, now targeting the friends of Ben Jordan! Last week attacking Ben's close friend and former tag team partner, Jamie Dean! After that happened, Ben went straight to the top! Namely Christian underwood! Ben didn't ask for a match this week, he DEMANDED one! It's Ben Jordan with Samantha Marlowe in his corner, fighting Alexander Raven with Luna Pasilno in his!
Simone: All this and more on SCW Climax Control!
Cameras had panned away from the ring to the backstage area. The focus was on Scott Oliver, but he wasn't alone. Standing just to the left of him was a newcomer to SCW, Erika Moore. She had the brightest smile across her facial features..Scott lifting the microphone in his hand to address everyone watching.
Scott Oliver: Ladies and gentlemen. I am standing here with the lovely Miss Erika Moore! Thank you for taking the time to speak to me,
Erika Moore: Thank you for having me, darlin'.
Scott Oliver: Oh.
For some reason Scott's face could be turning a bright red when she smiled in his direction. He was quick to try and keep things moving.
Scott Oliver: I forgot what I was going to ask... oh right! It was a few weeks ago that it was announced that you will be competing at the Supercard known as Blaze of Glory. How does that make you feel?
Erika Moore: Hmm, well.. I want to start off by saying. I'll forever be grateful to Mr. Ward for giving me a chance to be on this roster. Therefore anything else that comes whether it's competing at a Supercard or just on Climax Control every sunday. I'll just see it as extra toppings to my sundae!
Based on the crowd reaction that could be heard in the back. Most of the fans just found her completely adorable. A collective "awe" sound could be heard from them.
Erika Moore: Now with that being said. I am not too foolish to admit that maybe there was one or two girls in the locker room that were more deserving of this chance than I am. I can admit that I'm not ready for an opportunity like this. I can admit that I still have a lot to prove. But I don't control the booking. I don't control when I'm in a match and when I'm not. All I do is show up when I'm asked to do so and do the best I can. Everyone will see me at Blaze of Glory. Just have to see how it goes.
Scott Oliver: I'm more of the many that is excited to see you in action. Over the last month, you've had a chance to show your skills. Against the likes of Taylor Sweet and then against Mercedes Vargas more recently. Each match you've walked away the winner. Do you feel like your finding your stride
Erika Moore: I'd like to hope so, but I feel like that's a suggestion that's very subjective in a lot of ways. I feel like I'm getting my feet up and under me. But our fans are the consumers here. Do they feel that way? Do they like what they're seeing? Are they buying what I'm bringing to the table? That's the type of thing I ask myself. That's who I am aiming to please. Those are the people I want to feel like they got their money's worth.
She paused for a moment. Keeping that ever so bright smile.
Erika Moore: Taylor, that was the case of the both of us being introduced to the faithful here at Sin City Wrestling. I don't know that anyone was really expecting a whole lot out of either one of us. I don't know that anyone was expecting us to steal the show or anything like that. Therefore I don't believe anyone put too much thought or focus on our match. But the match with Mercedes, that's a different story.
Scott Oliver: Is it?
Erika Moore: Of course. Each person is different. Each person brings something different to the table. In that situation, I think a lot of people thought I didn't have a chance. Think a lot of people saw it as my first loss here. Rightfully so, that didn't bother me. I know I'm the less experienced of the two. Mercedes' resume speaks for herself. Quite the legend around here. But I always bet on myself. I gave it all I had. In the end I pulled out an impressive victory. I think I put myself on the map. I think the fans are getting behind me, but there's still so much work to do.
Scott Oliver: Well, that brings us back to Blaze of Glory. It was announced you'd be going one on one with Krystal Wolfe. What is your take on the match you're about to embark in?
Erika Moore: This is the first time anyone is going to hear me speak ill of someone. But since she started it. I might as well finish it, right? Mama didn't raise no... well you know.
She brought her index finger to her lips for a 'sh' type motion. Clearly not wanting to be the one to say anything too inappropriate but had no problems alluding to the specific word..
Erika Moore: Taylor, we had a competitive match. Showed what two young up and comers could do. Not a bad word was said amongst each other. Mercedes same thing. She had all the right to bad mouth me and sell me shut. Cut my legs out from under me. All of that stuff. But she didn't. She made her statement about my inexperience and made her intentions known. Yet at no point was it disrespectful. Then you take Krystal. The moment the match is announced. She's got something to say about taking my winning streak away.
Scott Oliver: Oh, I think I heard about that.
Erika Moore: Can't tell you how many times I was tagged in that tweet from fans. The first thing that came to mind for me was, is she serious? First of all, It's two wins. Two wins. Sure they're back to back wins. I don't exactly consider that a win streak. A win streak is like when you're five or six deep. Looking like you're really hitting the pavement running. Looking like you'll be difficult to stop. That's a win streak to me. But then again I got to think of it from her perspective.
As she paused, this was a chance for the cameras to zoom in. Focusing on her a little more. Her next words had to be important based on camera work.
Erika Moore: Krystal has been around these parts for a good little while now. She doesn't exactly have a lot to show for it. One title reign that took place nearly three years ago. A recently failed run at being on the dark side. No one bought into her being edgy or evil. Heck, has the poor girl ever strung to win in a row together? Makes you wonder if she was that focused on my little win streak.
Scott Oliver: I don't have those facts on hand right this second. I'm sure I could figure that out for you though, if you'd like.
Erika Moore: Nonsense. That won't be needed, mister. It isn't that big of a deal. At least it isn't to me. That being said, Krystal. Since you think that highly of yourself. Since you want to be the first one to disrespect me. Since you think you're that darn good. Let me fill you in on a little something. Blaze of Glory, you're about to find yourself in a world of hurt. Grew up on a form. Did some rodeoing in my time. Faced certain death in the eyes once or twice. You aren't anything I can't handle sweetheart. Can't wait to hear what the excuse is when you got another big-fat L added to your record.
The little smirk featured on her face was intentional.
Scott Oliver: That's one way to put it. I think this match just got a little more interesting.
Erika Moore: All due respect. It'll be the most interesting thing Krystal does all of two thousand and twenty four.
Another intentional smirk was featured. Erika backed it up with a small wink. Before taking the time to walk out of the camera shot. Allowing Scott to be the primary focus.
Scott Oliver: There you have it folks, the woman has spoken!
A small shrug consuming the man's shoulders. With the interview clearly being over. This led to the cameras cutting back to the ringside area for the next scheduled contest of the night.
Justin gets to his feet and climbs the ringstairs to slide into the ring. He puts the microphone to his lips to make the introductions for the opening match as Holly Wood watches him with a smile.
Justin: The following contest is scheduled for one fall…Introducing first…
Beethoven's "Moonlight" Sonata begins to play across the sound system of the building and the crowd turns toward the entrance stage where Miss Manners emerges with a heart warming smile on her face and a hand in the air, greeting one and all politely.
Justin: From Madison Wisconsin-- Miss Manners!
Not a single fan reaches out to her and some give her a thumbs down but she never the less smiles to them, holding a hand over her heart as if she can feel their love and admiration as she arrives at ringside. She climbs up the steps and stares at Justin (or the male referee) and shouts, "Well aren't you going to hold the ropes open for a lady!?" prompting them to scramble over and hold the ropes open for her to step through. Miss Manners then walks around to the center of the ring with her arms held open and out, greeting the boos and jeers before returning to her corner.
Adams: Miss Manners looks ready for this match tonight Belinda.
Justin: And her opponent…
Release me!
The two words from the Public Address system in the arena cause the fans in attendance, already on their feet, to react with disdain and unappreciative shouts. Kat Jones,, badass Cincinnati native of ill repute methodically makes her way to the top of the ramp from the gorilla position. Her black shorts and knee high boots are more characterizing of her facial expression and attitude toward the scathing crowd, than her highly decorative top full of self expression. Kat walks toward the ring, methodically and without much concern at all, regarding the insults and jeers thrown in her direction.
Justin: Making her way to the ring, hailing from Cincinnati, Ohio, standing five feet, eight inches tall and weighing in at one hundred twenty eight pounds, she is the "WildKat"... KAT JJOONNEESS!!!"
Standing before the ring apron, Kat removes her black leather jacket, whips it behind her, releasing it and allowing it to sail toward the ramp, ultimately letting out a bloodcurdling scream, before she enters the ring and awaits the bell.
Simone: Is Miss Manners ready for Kat Jones here in another return to SCW?
Adams: We are about to find out if she is because Holly Wood just called for the bell.
DING DING DING!
Holly Wood calls both women into the middle of the ring where Kat and Manners glare at each other. Manners listens as Holly Wood calls for a fair match. Turning to Kat, Manners strikes out with an attempted slap on the face but Kat blocks it and then slams her own hand across the cheek of Manners sending her staggering away from the middle of the ring and towards the ropes. Bringing her hand up, Manners checks for blood on her lip then charges towards Kat who has turned her back on Manners. Catching her by the back of the head, Manners pulls her into the corner and slams her face first into the turnbuckle. Kat tries to prevent a second slam on the turnbuckle but Manners is ready and manages to hit the turnbuckle again with the head of Kat before releasing the handful of hair she is using to hold the head of Kat. Jones staggers away, her hands over her face as Holly Wood admonishes Manners who smirks and shrugs. Kat is checking her hands for blood as Manners moves towards her. Seeing her, Kat strikes out with a mule kick that manages to catch Manners in the midsection and drops her to her knees.
Adams: It was looking like Manners had control of the match but that kick from Kat stopped her right in her tracks.
Manners is breathing hard trying to catch the breath that Kat had kicked out of her lungs. Kat pulls Manners up and watches for a moment as she sways slightly. Kat backs up and then hits a standing drop kick on Manners sending her across the ring and rolling to the outside. Kat makes to follow her out of the ring but Holly stops her and motions her back before he steps up to the ropes and begins a ten count. Kat moves towards the ropes as Manners uses the apron to pull herself upwards. Holly Wood stops and moves Kat back as Manners waves her back from the outside. Manners makes to climb up on the apron as Kat moves around Holly. Manners pushes herself off the apron and moves back against the barricade. Holly Wood moves to Kat and warns her to get back. Jones grumbles and then moves to the center of the ring where she waits as Holly Wood moves to count out Manners again. This time, Manners rolls under the ring and then gets quickly to her feet. Kat and Manners lock up in the middle of the ring where the pair fight for leverage that Kat is able to turn into a headlock.
Simone: It started out as a back and forth match but it looks like Kat has got the upper hand.
Manners fights to push Kat into the ropes and manages to send her against them before she is sent back to the mat with a shoulder block from Kat. Looking down at Manners on the mat, Kat heads for the opposite ropes. Manners throws herself to the mat under a charging Kat who has rebound off the ropes. Leaping over Manners, Jones hits the opposite ropes then is surprised by Manners locking on a sleeperhold. Kat's arms begin to windmill as she struggles to get to the ropes. Digging in her heels, she struggles backwards and finally slams Manners back first into the corner. Manners keeps the hold on but Kat steps forward and in desperation slams once more against the turnbuckles which loosens the hold that Manners has on the sleeper. Kat reaches up and grabbing the head of Manners, she pulls her over her shoulder then slams her on her back. Manners arches in pain as Kat sags in the corner trying to catch her breath. Manners rolls to her hands and knees and crawls to the center of the ring. Kat follows her slowly and allows Manners to stand before catching her with a belly to back suplex that lands Manners on the back of her head. Clutching at her head, Manners rolls into a fetal position.
Adams: For someone that is recovering from a sleeper hold, what a show of power from Kat Jones.
Simone: She has to pin Manners to win though Jason and doesn't looks like she is able to.
Kat lays on the mat herself as she breathes hard. Kipping up, Kat turns to see Manners getting to her hands and knees. Rolling over the back of Manners, Jones attempts a pin but Manners is able to kick out easily. Kat rolls out of the pin and slams her hands on the canvas in anger as Manners rolls to the ropes. Getting to her feet, Kat sees Manners leaning against the ropes and she sends Manners out of the ring with a mule kick. Manners flops through the ropes and lands in a heap on the floor. Kat leans over the ropes and looks down at the fallen woman. Dropping to the mat, Kat rolls to the outside and then picks up Manners. Using her wrist, Kat attempts to whip Manners into the steel ringpost but Manners reverses it and it is Jones that lands against the ringsteps instead. Kat lays on the steel as Manners leans on the apron. Holly is counting both women out. Manners reacts by quickly rolling in the ring to break the count before rolling back to the outside.
Simone: What is Miss Manners trying to do Jason. If she just would stay in the ring and let Holly count Kat out, she would win the match easily.
Manners walks towards the ring steps and lifting the head of Kat, she drops it violently on the steel. Kat lays prone on the steps as Manners smirks at the fans. Grabbing Jones by the hair, Manners picks her up and then whips her into the ring under the bottom rope. Climbing on the apron, Manners slides between the ropes and then towards Kat who is stirring on the mat. Catching the legs of Kat, Manners sets her up for a figure four that she locks in making Kat scream out in pain. Kat leans back and reaches for the ropes that are just out of reach of her fingers. Holly Wood counts her shoulders to the mat but Jones sits up to prevent the pin. Manners taunts Kat as she leans back putting more pressure on the knees of Jones. Kat tries to roll to the side then to the opposite side in an attempt to reverse the hold. Manners fights hard to keep Kat on her back but Jones is able to reverse the hold and forces Manners to release the hold.
Simone: Manners almost had the win but Kat was able to reverse the figure four which put Manners in jeopardy of having to submit. Manners was smart to let the hold go.
Manners is slowly getting to her feet as Kat pulls herself up by the ropes. Manners charges towards Kat with bad intentions but is stopped dead in her tracks as Kat is able to hit a superkick into the jaw of Manners. Manners drops like a stone to the mat as Kat recovers slightly. Moving towards Manners, Kat rolls her over and prepares Manners to lock in her Wildkat finisher.
Adams: Oh no, if Miss Manners doesn't do something, Kat is going to lock in the Wildkat and there is nowhere to go after that.
Kat pulls her up and then locks in the Wildkat finisher. Manners cries out in pain as her back is arched in the wrong way. Kat leans back with the hold forcing Manners to tap out quickly.
Adams: There it is Belinda, the Wildkat!
Simone: And Miss Manners is tapping out desperate to break the hold.
Kat drops Manners who curls up in a pained ball as Holly Wood signals for the bell.
DING DING DING!
Justin: The winner of the match, Kat Jones!
Holly Wood moves to hold the arm of Kat upwards in victory before moving to check on Manners who has rolled to the side of the ring to be checked on by medical staff leaving Kat to celebrate her win in the ring.
Adams: What a match Belinda.
Simone: Kat Jones winning tonight with a submission win over Miss Manners. I can't wait to see who she will be facing next.
Kat celebrates as her music fills the arena.
Backstage and following her triumphant return, the victorious Kat Jones is walking confidently through the halls, accepting congratulations from staff and star alike when she turns a corner near catering and bumps into –
Bea Barnhart! The bump causes Bea to lose hold of her plate with an Easter cupcake on it, flipping it back onto her blouse and staining it. Bea stares down at the ruined garment and then at Kat.
Kat: I am SO sor-!
But before she can finish what she was going to say, an infuriated bea throws her full cup of scalding hot coffee right in Kat's face! Kat lets loose a loud shriek of pain as she grabs her face and falls back against the wall! Backstage personnel come running to tend to Kat who holds her face while a non remorseful Bea just walks away as if nothing had just occurred.
We fade backstage on Ms. Rocky Mountains standing by Mercedes Vargas for an interview segment. The Hall of Famer is in anticipation ahead of her match tonight.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: Happy Easter, everyone. I'm here with Mercedes Vargas, who tonight goes one-on-one with Georgie Robertson. To the surprise of no one, Georgie has made quite a few enemies. I can't even go backstage without fearing for my own safety. Mercedes, I think it's fair to say that you're looking to this return match back from January.
Mercedes: Not only am I looking forward to it, Rocky, I'm staying ready for it. I will say that what Georgie did last week to Julianna, Tempest, and Bobbie probably won't do her any favor, but who am I?
Mercedes gives a nonchalant shrug.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: Mercedes, you're still searching for your first win in the new year. How do you plan on doing that tonight and how is your match with Georgie going to be different this time around?
Mercedes: Georgie is one name that got away. She won't get away tonight. For the past few months, my checklist has been left blank and I think it's time I correct that by adding a new name to my checklist.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: From her comments ahead of this match, it seems asvif she's already looking past you. Is that a mistake saying that against someone accomplished as you?
Mercedes: Confidence is important to having success in SCW, but overconfidence, Rocky, is the kiss of death. I'm going to make Georgie eat her words tonight. And if you don't believe me, just watch.
Simone: Welcome back to Climax Control! Last week Georgie Robertson caused quite a stir when she, in her roll as Special Guest Referee, attacked Bobbie, Juliana and Tempest with a steel chair causing the Triple Threat Main Event between the Bombshell Roulette, Internet and World Bombshell Champions to be declared a no contest! Now she faces a woman who has held all three of those titles and then some as she takes on Mercedes Vargas in singles action.
Simone: Mercedes has been the victim of accusations that she's past her prime but make no mistake, past her prime or not, she is a dangerous competitor in the ring! This should be a good one!
Adams: No time to waste, let's take it to Justin!
Justin: The following contest is scheduled for one fall!
The throbbing beat of Adam Lambert's For your entertainment fills the venue. A body can be seen in shadow as the fans turn towards the entrance. A strobing light flashes behind the body that turns slowly as a spotlight slowly lights up the ramp area and kills the strob to reveal a brunette in a black leather jacket over black tights and staring down into the ring, a slow smirk beginning to cross her lips. Heading to the ring, she stops at the ringstairs and then moves slowly up to the apron and into the ring where she moves towards a corner and leans back against the turnbuckles with one foot on the bottom rope.
Justin: Introducing first, from South London, she is the Golden Briefcase holder Georgie Robertson.
The smirk returns as she looks at the camera and snaps off a contemptuous salute before pulling off the jacket to reveal a dark halter with silver buckles on it. She turns and once more leans into the corner to await the bell.
Simone: Georgie was out to send a message in last week's Main Event and not only did the champs get it but so did the rest of the Bombshell Roster!
Adams: As did the bosses, they weren't happy with her ruining a blockbuster main event!
Justin: And her opponent!
Suddenly, the arena lights turn off and the crowd is hyped up for what was in store. As the opening of "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me" by U2 blares across the PA system, the mood of the crowd changes instantly and the arena is under the subtle glowing of the lights. As the lyrics finally kick in, a figure emerges; the highlight of their attire is being under the illusion. Mercedes Vargas stops short of the entrance ramp, hands on waist, and overlooking the crowd.
Justin: Making her way to the ring, from Buenos Aires, Argentina, MERCEEEEEDEEEES VAAAARGAAAAS!
Cheers, boos, and catcalls soon greet her. Oblivious and yet satisfied with their reaction for several seconds, she flips her long hair, then makes her way to the ring. As she goes up the steps and walks to the end of the ring apron, she climbs to the turnbuckle, then turns her head back as the camera shows her determined expression-perhaps a message that her opponent will be in for a tough fight. Mercedes vaults into the ring and walks over to the opposite corner where she relaxes along the corner ropes while waiting for her opponent(s) to arrive.
Simone: Mercedes has faced Georgie before and the Brit did pick up the win last time.
Adams: We'll see if the same rings true here.
Jacob goes over the rules with both women but rather than hand over her briefcase Georgie goes to whack Mercedes over the head with it, Mercedes ducks he attempt and sends her scrambling with a dropkick before Jacob calls for the bell.
DING DING DING!
Simone: Georgie tried to het the jump on Mercedes but it didn't work out.
Adams: Well, Mercedes has been wrestling since Georgie was in diapers so….
Georgie scrambles to her feet but is met with a running clothesline from Mercedes who continues to lay in the stomps on the younger wrestler, it's only after Jscob intervenes that Mercedes backs off and Georgie retreats to the ring ropes which she uses to pull herself up, seeing the young upstart back up to her feet Mercedes goes to press the advantage but Georgie bullrushes her and hits a pair of clotheslines before locking in the Octopus Hold!
Simone: Georgie started the match on the backfoot but now she's turned it around with the Octopus Hold that we've seen her use many times since she signed with the company!
Adams: It's an effective hold and not an easy one to get out of, but a veteran like Mercedes will find a way.
Jacob gets into position to ask Mercedes if she wants to tap out but the Argentinian Bombshell refuses adamantly as she continues to fight against Georgie's hold eventually managing to loosen Georgie's grip and turn her body into position for the Black Rose Overdrive! Mercedes goes for the move but Georgie lands on her feet and connects with a rising knee strike to Mercedes's jaw! Georgie goes for the first pin of the match!
ONE!
TWO!
And Mercedes kicks out!
Simone: Mercedes's jaw will be sore for a while after that knee strike but it wasn't enough to keep her down for the three!
Adams: Considering she almost had Georgie with the Black Rose Overdrive that's saying something!
Georgie lets out a frustrated grunt before she turns her attention back to Mercedes but the older Bombshell grabs her by the waist line of her pants and throws the Brit to the outside of the ring through the middle and top ropes! Georgie lands on her hands and knees and seems to be checking her bra for something before Mercedes hits her with a Suicide Drive as soon as she gets back to her feet.
Adams: Is it me or was Georgie checking for something in her bra?
Simone: ……….you were paying attention to her bra?
Adams: Err………..man what a dive from Mercedes!
Jacob restarts the count but Mercedes goes to return to the ring but Georgie grabs her by the leg to try to stop her but the older Bombshell kicks the upstart away before returning to the ring fully, Georgie follows suit but only after realizing that Mercedes isn't going to get outside the ring with her and Mercedes charges in, hitting Georgie with a knee lift to the stomach before taking her down with a Brainbuster! Mercedes goes for the pin!
ONE!
TWO!
And Georgie kicks out! Before Georgie can mount a comeback though Mercedes follows that up with a Single Leg Boston Crab!
Simone: Mercedes has that Boston Crab locked in!
Adams: Georgie uses her knees as part of her finisher, taking them out is smart!
Jacob gets into position to ask Georgie if she wants to quit but the Brit has a two word reply and the second word is "off"! she instead starts fighting her way out of the hold but eventually manages to reach the ring ropes and force the rope break! Mercedes lets go off the hold and goes to kick up Georgie but the Brit surprises her with a Small Package, it takes Jacob a second to get into position but when he does he starts the count.
ONE!
TWO!
And Mercedes kicks out, Georgie then retreats to the outside again and this time Mercedes gives chase.
Simone: It's not like Georgie to go to the outside so often!
JA; She seems to be leading Mercedes on a wild goose chase!Mercedes catches up with Georgie and goes to throw her into the ring steps but Georgie reverses the attempt sending the older Bombshell flipping over the ring steps! Mercedes leans against the crowd barrier to try to regroup but Georgie charges in only to get backdropped into the crowd! Mercedes goes to follow Georgie into the crowd but gets warning from Jacob, saying that his count is up to eight already!
Simone: Mercedes had better get Georgie back to the ring pronto if she wants to avoid a double countout!
Adams: Especially with the PPV right around the corner!
Mercedes nods at Jacob's warning and goes to pick up Georgie only to catch a punch square to the jaw! Mercedes drops kick a sack of potatoes and Georgie pounces on her reigning down punches.
Simone: Wow, what a punch from Georgie!
Adams: I don't know how she knocked Mercedes down with that punch since she isn't a brawler but I think Mercedes is out! And more importantly? Jacob is seconds away from counting them out!
Jacob gives Georgie and Mercedes one final warning but Georgie is too busy reigning down the punches on the unconscious and bloody Mercedes to care and he's forced to count them out!
DING DING DING!
Justin: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN NEITHER GEORGIE NOR MERCEDES WERE ABLE TO ANSWER THE REFEREES'S TEN COUNT, THEREFORE THIS MATCH IS A DOUBLE COUNTOUT DRAW!
Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Simone: The crowd are making his displeasure known but the ref's decision is final!
Adams: And that's two matches in a row that Georgie has ruined and wait, did you see that?!
In a blink and you miss it moment Georgie removes something from her hand and tosses it under some nearby seats, she isn't sticking around to get questioned though as she hops the barricade, retrieves her Golden Briefcase and makes a run for it!
Simone: There's gonna be hell to pay for that young lady but can we get an instant replay from just after Georgie was backdropped into the crowd? From the other camera's perspective?
Belinda gets her wish and the tron shows Georgie reaching down her top and grabbing an object from her bra, what that object is isn't clear as she quickly slips it onto her hand and decks Mercedes with it seconds later.
Adams: Whatever that was, Georgie didn't want Jacob to find it.
Simone: We'd better get some medical attention down here for Mercedes!
Sure enough paramedics rush down to check on the downed Hall of Famer as the scene fades.
The scene opens backstage where we see Ariana looking disappointed.
Ariana: I had such high hopes for Erika and this match between me and her, and what happens? She leaves me to do all the promo work.
Ariana shakes her head.
Ariana: I look forward to this match regardless Erika, but I do wonder how you'll do against my Go Gym teammate in Krystal if this is the effort you put in against me.
Ariana lets out a frustrated sigh as she makes the cross motion with her gloved arms.
Ariana: Either way? I'm on the rebound! Watch out!
Ariana walks off as the scene fades.
The scene opens backstage where we see Krystal and her minions watching a monitor as the match between Erika and Ariana is about to start.
Kelly: So why are we scouting Erika again?
Krystal: She's my opponent at Blaze of Glory.
Hayley: But she was quiet for her match against Ari?
Krystal: I noticed, will be interesting to see how Ari handles that level of disappointment, but more importantly? This is my chance to scout my competition at Blaze of Glory.
Kelly: Want me to grab popcorn?
Krystal: It'd be appreciated.
Kelly run off as the scene fades.
Justin: This match is scheduled for one fall... introducing first…
The arena was filled with the excited and vibrant fans. All of which were waiting for the next scheduled contest of the night. "Country Girl" by Savannah Dexter began to pump into the speaker system of the building. The hip hop beat had the crowd in attendance bopping along with the music. A very positive response coming from those in their seats. A shot cut over to the entrance way as the curtain could be seen being brushed aside. Stepping out from behind that curtain was Erika Moore. The sweetest smile crossed over the tattooed beauty's lips. Taking her cowboy hat and tipping it to the crowd as she was being acknowledged by them with cheers. She then began to make her journey down to the ring, bouncing back and forth across both sides of the guardrails in order to slap hands with the fans.
Justin: Coming from Chattanooga, Tennessee. The Country Girl herself: ERIIIKKAAA MOOOORRREEEE!
The shot cut back over to Ms. Moore as she reached the ringside area. She reached up, taking the cowboy hat off her head before placing it firmly on the head of a child in the front row. Keeping a smile across those red painted lips. She then dashed towards the ring and slid under the bottom rope hopping to her feet right away. Ms. Moore made her way to the corner climbing it to the second turnbuckle and began to blow kisses out to the crowd. About that time her music began to fade out. That was her cue to jump down and begin to focus on the match at hand.
Justin: and her opponent…
The opening guitar riff to "In the Middle of the Night" by Within Temptation hits the speakers and the crowd comes unglued as Ariana emerges from the back wearing a long cloak with her initials on the back and with her back to the crowd.
Justin: ng first, from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, "The Greek Goddess" Ariana Angelos!
Ariana spins around right as the song kicks into high gear with the opening lyrics, she poses for the crowd as she makes her way down to the ring before rolling into the ring and removing her cloak ready for her match.
The ref moves in and checks both for weapons before indicating for the bell to be rung…
DING DING DING!
The ref rings the bell and Angelos and Moore circle the ring, before Angelos rushes in as she and Moore lock up in the centre of the ring, where they jockey for position briefly in the centre of the ring as they both try to get the upper hand, as they move to the ropes before moving away as they continue to jockey before Moore puts her weight behind her pushing and drives Angelos into the ropes and pins her there. The ref quickly moves in and tells Moore to back off, which she slowly does and takes a step backwards before rushing in and tries to catch Angelos off guard but Angelis ducks out of the way.
Simone: Angelos and Moore lock up where she jockey as they seek to get the upper hand, as Moore looks to take another big scalp, as Moore momentarily gets the upper hand on Angelos as she gets her up against the ropes, but the ref moves in and forces her to back off.
Adams: She backs off and then tries to surprise Angelos, but Angelos sees it coming and avoids.
Angelos turns and charges back towards Moore, but Moore ducks out of the way and keeps going away from Angelos. Angelos looks toward Moore and moves away from the corner, as they circle the ring once more before moving in, but Angelos ducks passed Moore and grabs her around the waist.

Moore adjusts herself on the mat as she seeks to get free, but Angelos' keeps a grip on Moore waist and follows her.

Simone: She looks for a way out but Angelos isn't given up so early.
Moore slowly makes her way to her feet, as Angelos has to follow and once they back to their feet, Moore gabs at Angelos' hands once more and breaks her grip and counters the waist lock into one of her own, but it brief as Angelos breaks free as she looks to counter but Moore is ready and lock in a headlock.
Simone: They both make their way to their feet with Moore countering the waist lock with one of her own. But Angelos quickly counters but that counter doesn't work out and Moore grabs Angelos into a headlock.
Angelos tries to push Moore away, but Moore keeps hold and drops to a knee putting pressure on her head, but Angelos pushes herself back up to her feet, which Moore has no choice to follow as Angelos grabs Moore's leg and lifts her up as she looks to take her down to the mat, but Moore keeps her grip tight around Angelos' head and Moore thrusts herself forward and takes Angelos down to the mat and the headlock stays in place, as the ref moves in and check's Angelos' shoulders with no obvious pin until Angelos pulls Moore backwards and into a pin…
Adams: Angelos tries to free herself, but Moore keeps the headlock in place. But Angelos isn't done trying to free herself as she lifts Moore up but Moore shifts her weight and takes Angelos down to the mat with the headlock still in place.
Simone: impressive, as the ref checks for a pin and then finds a pin as Angelos tries to surprise Moore.
ONE!

Simone: Moore climbs from the ring and moves after Angelos, where she moves after her and kicks her in the side. She grabs her away and pulls her up and delivers a slap.
Moore nods, as she moves to Angelos, where she spins her around, but Angelos responds with a forearm shot, which rocks Moore as the ref tells Angelos to bring the action back into the ring, which she also nods, as she moves to Moore, where she grabs her hair and drags her towards the ring and pushes her in. Moore rolls away, as Angelos climbs up onto the apron before climbing through the ropes. Moore grabs the ropes and pulls herself up just as Angelos reaches her.

She then goes for a pin…
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
Simone: Angelos wins and puts a stop on Moore's progress.
DING DING DING
Justin: Winner of this match via pinfall… Ariana Angelos.
Angelos' music hits over the p.a, as she climbs off Moore and gets to her feet as the referee raises her arm in victory.
Ms. Rocky Mountains is standing backstage, microphone in hand as she looks into the camera. The crowd in the arena quiet down, eager to see what she has to say or who she is about to speak with.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: In two weeks time, the Bombshell I am about to speak with puts her SCW Bombshell Roulette Championship on the line against Bella Madison. She wanted to take this opportunity to address a few things so everyone please welcome…Bobbie Dahl.
The camera pans out and Bobbie steps into view holding her Bombshell Roulette Title over her shoulder. Normally she would be smiling but she has a more serious presence about her this time as she waits to speak.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: Bobbie, welcome. So I understand you have a few things to say. Now is your chance. What's on your mind, Bobbie?
Bobbie moss and takes in a deep breath. Indeed she looks to have a lot on her mind as she prepares to speak.
Bobbie: That's quite the question, Rocky. And I mean that, because I have quite a bit on my mind these days. I'm still the Bombshell Roulette Champion, but honestly…for how much longer? I mean, last week it was obvious that Georgie Robertson could take me out at any time she wants. She did just that, but she also took out Tempest and Julianna at the same time.
She pauses, shaking her head disappointedly.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: Well she did use her authority as a special referee to achieve that. You can't be disappointed in yourself about that.
Bobbie: Oh, but I am, Rocky. I'm disappointed because I wasn't able to stop one woman from single handedly taking out three other women. Three CHAMPIONS no less and ruining what was supposed to be a memorable match. I didn't do enough.
Ms. Rocky goes to respond, but Bobbie holds up her hand, stopping her. She closes her eyes and gathers her thoughts before continuing.
Bobbie: That's been the trend these days with me, right? Not doing enough. Not being enough as the Bombshell Roulette Champion. I represent this company just like Tempest and Julianna do, and I've done little to show for it. And I haven't even given the respect to Bella that she deserves as my next opponent by trying to hype our match as it should be. And why?
Bobbie goes silent as she looks at Ms. Rocky. Ms. Rocky thinks for a moment, but she is unsure of what reason Bobbie could have.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: Why is that, Bobbie?
Bobbie: Because my mind is on so many other things and I'm not focusing on one thing at a time. And I've been trying to get Artie prepared as quickly as possible for the Blast From The Past tournament. And I'm just letting everybody down! I'm letting this championship down! I'm letting SCW down. I'm letting myself down!
Bobbie gets increasingly more and more frustrated with herself and Ms. Rocky takes a step back, just in case.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: You've always had a way of beating the odds, Bobbie. And surely you'll be able to focus once you step into that ring with Bella in two weeks.
Bobbie shakes her head and let's out a laugh that says otherwise.
Bobbie: Maybe. Maybe not. Time will tell, won't it? Bella deserves to go up against a better version of me, though. The version of me that won this title in the first place. Will she get that version in two weeks? I don't know. And even if she does, will I be able to stay focused enough to keep it if Georgie Robertson decides to cash in that contract? I don't know. All I know is that I'm going to do my best. I just don't know how good my best is these days…
Bobbie's expression drops, disappointed in herself. She shakes her head before she turns and walks away, not giving Ms. Rocky a chance to respond again. Ms. Rocky watches her leave then looks into the camera with a blank expression as the scene fades.
Backstage, we catch up to SCW Roulette Champion Eddie Lyons, doing some last minute exercises before his match later with Bill Barnhart, he notices the cameras and stops to address them. The Roulette Championship is displayed behind him on some crates.
Eddie Lyons: Later tonight, I have a chance at redemption when I go up against Bill Barnhart, one of the few men to have beaten me in this company. Should he win he gets a shot at my Roulette Championship, which I can't say isn't fair, but it simply isn't going to happen.
Eddie takes in a breath.
Eddie Lyons: A match that was postponed due to Bill getting his groin bruised. Well Bill, I'm afraid you're going to have to push past much more than a bruised groin to beat me. Whatever match we end up in later, you're going to have to push a lot harder if all it takes is a bruised groin to get you out of the match.
Eddie shrugs.
Eddie Lyons: I'm fresh, and ready to go. Defeating Peter Vaughn instilled a new confidence in me that I didn't have last time and you are going to find out first hand who the real Eddie Lyons is. I don't know what your future holds, but at least at this time you will NOT be receiving a championship match against me, because I am ending that dream tonight.
Eddie reaches back to grab his championship and place it on his shoulder
Eddie Lyons: This championship is going nowhere, you'll have to take it from my cold dead hands because I refuse to lose. Are you listening Bill, because if you're not then I have no problem showing you later tonight. Be Prepared Bill, be very prepared.
Eddie smirks at the camera with confidence, before exiting camera left with his championship proudly on his shoulder.
SCW Bombshells World Champion Julianna DiMaria is trying to do the best that she can to hold back her anger when the camera comes on. But, the anger in her eyes is too prevalent and it's clear that the events of last week are still weighing on her mind. Still, she's as composed as she can be as she begins to express her thoughts.
Julianna: I'll start off by saying this real quick. What happened last week was reprehensible. It was disgusting. It was pathetic. It was obviously an orchestrated amount of bullshit by someone that clearly shouldn't have ever been in that spot in the first place. I don't know whose brilliant idea it was to book that match. Actually, let me walk that back a little bit. I don't mind having a match with the other two singles champions no matter how much bigger than me they are. That's perfectly fine. I know deep down that I would've won that match outright and proven just how dominant I have been from the moment that I've walked into this company.
But the "brilliant" idea to insert someone so… UGH… let's just put it this way…
And considering how I'm not even name dropping her, that about tells you that I don't think highly of her because that woman barely promos half the time she's booked, coming into tonight, I don't think she's even won a match since winning the Golden Briefcase that she clearly only won because everyone else underestimated her or completely sucked and didn't deserve to be in a match like that at themselves.
I'll put it this way, she has been a complete flop since winning the stupid thing and someone else should've challenged her for it by now.
But anyway, the same person who had the brilliant idea to have a special referee for that match is probably the same person who had the brilliant idea to put her in the stupid briefcase match to begin with…
Julianna pauses as she lets out a bit of a sigh. She doesn't resume speaking right away as she takes a moment to bottle up any anger from last week, letting out a deeper breath to simply let it go and move on.
Julianna: That's ALL I am going to say about that. Hell, that's all I am going to say about HER because someone like HER isn't worth wasting any more time on than I already have.
So this is it, huh Kayla?
That's right, I'm shifting gears to someone that actually matters. I don't want to make too much of a big deal about this, but you misinterpreted a tweet I made after two weeks ago when I said I just wanted to move on forget about the whole experience I had. It had nothing to do with you, even though you being the guest commentator was a load of bullshit. It had everything to do with the fact that I wanted to be done with Seleana Zdunich and her stupid obsession with me that she was carrying out for months. You'll notice that I didn't even celebrate that win over her because in my book? A win over someone like that isn't even worth celebrating against. It was, merely, another day in the office for me.
THAT is what I meant when I said "I'm just going to move on"...
But I get it Kayla…
I have everything that you wish you could have.
I have the title that you want…
I have the dominant streak that you once had when you were the three time Internet Champion and you want that back for yourself.
So of course, you're going to twist and prod and poke and try to get into my head by being effectively the pettiest little bitch on the roster. Oh I know exactly how you operate, Kayla. I know you're going to run me down however you want. I know you're going to come in here showing why you have one of the biggest mouths on the roster. But ultimately?
Julianna scoffs, showing a lack of fear of her.
Julianna: I am one of the few opponents that isn't intimidated by anything that you have to say. You've rarely had to face an opponent like me. You can talk all you want, but when it comes to being the world champion and being THE most dominant bitch of this entire division, nobody has been able to do it better than I have and that's WITH all of the obstacles that my reign has overcome. Everything that happened last week? It was a mere bump in the road and now that I've vented about it? I'm over it…
And once I take care of you two weeks from tonight, I WILL put the final stamp that I need for this reign for this fucking company and for this fucking division to put some respect on my name!
Julianna angrily leaves the scene, clearly showing her passion and determination (even if it's in a bit of a warped way to some) as the scene fades out.
Justin: Our next match is a Standard Rules match pitting Goth against Justin smith.
Adams: This should be a one-sided match as I feel Goth will make easy work of Justin Smith.
Simone: You should not be too quick to make a prediction like that. If Goth was all that good of a wrestler he would be the World Heavyweight Champion instead of Finn Whelan. And, yes, it was Goth who Finn defeated to become the World Heavyweight Champion.
Justin: First to make his way to the ring, he hails from Manhattan, New York, and he stands in at six feet four inches and two hundred thirty-nine pounds, please give a great Phoenix, Arizona, welcome for THE MESSIAN OF PAIN. . .GOTH!!!
As Justin finishes with his introduction of Goth we hear AIN'T NO GRAVE by JOHNNY CASH begin to play and Johnny Cash starts to sing. This brings out Melissa and Kat Jones upon the entrance ramp and both stand on either side before Goth walks out wearing a dark overall and a mask with a crown of thorns attached to it as he stares towards the ring. Goth raises his head towards the air as he extends his arms. Both Melissa and Kat walk towards the ring as Goth follows them towards the ring. The two women walk up the ramp as they open up the ropes for Goth and he then slowly steps through the ropes before the lights go down when Johnny Cash sings that THEIR AIN'T NO GRAVE. . .NO GRAVE CAN HOLD MY BODY DOWN. The lights come back up again as Goth has taken off the overall and can be seen standing in the middle of the ring still wearing the crown. Melissa slowly takes it off as this gives Goth the chance to look at the entrance ramp to await his opponent, Justin Smith, to make his way to the ring.
Justin: That, Belinda, is the epitome of class. Goth is one of the all-time greats in the sport of Wrestling.
Simone: We will see if you still feel that way when Goth loses to Justin Smith.
Justin: Next to make his way to the ring, he is from Tarrytown, New York, and he stands in at six feet four inches and two hundred fifty pounds, please give a great Phoenix, Arizona, welcome for THE TARRYTOWN TORMENTOR. . .JUSTIN SMITH!!!
The opening riffs of MADNESS by LILIAC hits the speakers as Justin TERRYTOWN TORMENTOR Smith comes out on the stage looking smug. He stands there as the crowd gives him a mostly negative reaction. The New York Smasher walks from one side of the stage to the other with a swag in his step then he looks around the crowd and starts to walk slowly towards the ring stopping halfway down the ramp and turning his head with his nose in the air to look at the crowd. The looks on the faces of the fans show that they do not like the way he is looking down upon them. Justin lowers his head slowly and turns back to face the ring as he walks down towards the apron then he climbs up to the apron and steps between the top rope and the middle rope, looking around at the fans as they continue to boo him. Justin takes a place in a corner and he glares at Goth waiting for their match to begin.
Adams: Lame! Lame! Lame! Goth is going to have an easy match against Justin.
Simone: Tsk tsk task Jason. You know better than to pre-determine the outcome of a match before the match is in progress.
Referee Drew Patton motions for Goth and Justin to join him in the center of the ring. Referee Patton informs them that their match is Standard rules with the winner determined by Pinfall, Submission, Disqualification, Countout, or if one wrestler is unable to physically continue in the match. Patton asks Goth and Justin if they both fully understand the rules and stipulations of this match and both tell Referee Patton they understand. Referee Drew Patton then pats down both wrestlers to ensure they do not have any foreign objects, or weapons, or illegal substances on them. Finding both wrestlers clean he tells Justin and Goth to return to their corners and when they hear the bell from the Timekeeper they are to come out fighting. Goth and Justin return to their corners and as soon as they are in place the Timekeeper rings the bell to start the match.
DING DING DING!
Adams: Woo hoo! This match is officially underway! Time to enjoy watching Goth destroy Justin Smith!
Simone: I need to check your drink to see if you are ingesting foreign substances Jason. For darn sure you are hallucinating.
Goth and Justin come out of their corners and charge each other and when they reach the center of the ring they stop and stare down each other. Justin starts some smack talk and Goth returns the smack talk. The two continue jawing at each other until Justin has had enough and he shoves Goth in the chest causing Goth to take a few steps back. Goth steps up and shoves Justin in the chest causing him to take several steps back. Justin goes for another shove to Goth but Goth grabs the arms of Justin and maneuvers him to there he is behind Justin and he pulls Justin's arm up causing it go press on Justin's neck. Goth pulls hard on the arm of Justin causing Justin to gasp for air. Referee Patton steps in to check if the maneuver is a choke but before he can check it Justin manages to get to the ropes and get his leg through the rope causing Referee Patton to call for a break. Goth refuses break the hold so Patton starts a break count on him.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
At the three count Goth releases the hold he had on Justin. Referee Drew Patton cautions Goth to not disobey him as he is the the Referee and he manages the match. He then tells Goth to step away to allow Justin to come out of the ropes then he further informs Goth that he is to wait until he is told he can get back into the action of the match. Goth is not happy with the comments from Referee Patton but he does what Patton told him and he stands off to the side.
Adams: I told you if Justin was going to get too aggressive that it would cost him and it did. Had Justin not been able to get to the ropes to have the Referee tell Goth to release the hold this match would have ended quickly for Justin.
Simone: You are just jealous that Justin Smith was able to get out of a hold that Goth put on him.
Adams: Excuse me Belinda but Justin Smith did not GET OUT OF THE HOLD as you stated. He happened to get his leg in the ropes and the Referee called for a break.
Simone: I is like saying six of one and a half dozen of another. The fact is that Justin was able to maneuver into the ropes for the break.
Justin comes out of the ropes but he remains cautious and he watches Goth closely. Justin then slides down the ropes, with Goth watching him, until Justin gets to a corner where he leans back into the corner. Goth slowly approaches Justin then he charges at Justin but at the last moment Smith dives out of the corner and Goth slams hard into the corner. Justin quickly gets to his feet and when Goth turns around Justin leaps up and grabs Goth and Monkey Flips him to the mat. Acting quickly Justin applies a Figure-Four Leglock on Goth and he works on leaning back to apply pressure to the legs of Goth. However Goth manages to get up in a sitting position and he starts landing blows to Justin. After several very hard blows to Justin we watch as Smith releases the Figure-Four Leglock he had on Goth. Justin then rolls to the side and through the ring ropes and then he hops down onto the arena floor. Referee Patton steps over to that side of the ring and he orders Goth to remain back while he starts a count on Justin Smith who is outside of the ring. Goth remains back, for now anyway, while Referee Patton begins his count on Justin.
Adams: I give credit to Justin for trying to get an advantage on Goth but as we saw Goth was able to get out of the hold Justin put on him. Then Justin decided to get out of the ring to get a break from Goth.
Simone: A wrestler has to always think about what is going on in the ring. Justin realized that going to the outside of the ring will allow a cooling-off period for Goth so that when Justin returns inside the ring he can go after Goth again.
Referee Patton starts his count on Justin Smith who is outside of the ring.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
Referee Drew Patton looks over at Goth to ensure he is staying back.
FOUR!
FIVE!
When Referee Patton is at the five count Goth doesn't waste any more time and he slides out of the ring and he goes after Justin on the arena floor. Referee Patton threatens to call a Disqualification on both Goth and Justin but Goth continues to chase Justin around the arena floor and Justin manages to stay a few steps in front of Goth. In the ring Referee Patton continues his count but this time the count for a Disqualification applies to both wrestlers.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
Goth catches up with Justin and he grabs him by the arm and whips him into the ring steps. Justin's back slams into the steps and he drops to the arena floor.
FOUR!
Goth pulls Justin to his feet then he wraps his arms around Justin and drives him backward into the side of the ring. Justin again drops to the arena floor.
FIVE!
Goth returns to inside of the ring while leaving Justin on the arena floor. When Goth enters the ring Referee Drew Patton reprimands Goth for going out of the ring to go after Justin. Goth complaints to Referee Patton that it was Justin who started it and that he is finishing it. Referee Patton tells Goth to remain back this time and if he fails to remain back this time he will issue a Disqualification on him. He asks Goth if he understand what he is saying and Goth tells him he does and he will hold back.
Adams: With Justin still on the outside of the ring and on the arena floor I wonder if Referee Patton continue his count or start the count over from ONE instead of continuing the count at SIX.
Simone: We are about to find out.
Referee Drew Patton takes up the count on Justin Smith who is still outside of the ring.
ONE!
TWO!
Goth is upset that Referee Patton restarted the count on Justin on the outside of the ring rather than continuing the count with SIX and continuing on from there. He approaches Referee Patton and a very animated argument takes place between the two. Referee Patton reminds Goth that HE is in charge of officiating this match and he has determined that when Goth returned inside the ring that broke the count and he started the count over. Goth is extremely animated during his complaint to Referee Patton. While Goth continues to argue with the Referee we see Justin Smith get up on the ring apron then he walks over to one of the corners and mounts the top ropes in that corner. When Goth finishes arguing with Referee Patton he turns around and at that instant Justin Smith leaps off the top of the corner and lands feet-first into the upper body of Goth. Goth is shoved hard backwards and he falls to the mat. Justin lands on the mat but more on his side than on his back.
Simone: There is your answer Jason.
Adams: That was not the answer I was looking for.
Goth gets to his feet and the look on his face tells us he is extremely upset and determined to destroy Justin. Justin sees Goth on his feet and he also stands up. The two get face-to-face and a loud and animated argument takes place. Justin tries to land a quick blow but Goth blocks the attempt and lands a blow on Justin. Again Justin goes to land a blow on Goth and again Goth blocks the attempt. Goth then lands several backhanded chops to the upper chest and throat of Justin. Having Justin reeling Goth locks in his Gothic Dream submission hold. Although Justin attempts to get to the ropes for a break Goth keeps Justin in the middle of the ring. When Justin starts fading from the hold Goth drops backwards to the mat and once both men are on the mat Goth wraps his legs around the body of Justin, a body scissors move, while holding tightly on the sleeper hold. Referee Patton checks on Justin by raising his arm and releasing it. When Justin's arm falls limp to the mat Referee Patton immediately calls for the bell by the Timekeeper to end the match. DING DING DING!
Referee Patton orders Goth to release his hold in Justin and Goth releases the hold. The Referee then orders Goth to stand next to him and to not attack Justin again and Goth does so.
Justin: The official decision on this match by Referee Drew Patton is that the winner, by submission, is GOTH!!!!!
Referee Patton raises the hand of Goth for the victory and after a short time he drops the hand of Goth. We watch as Goth confidently exits the ring and he heads up the ramp towards the backstage area accompanied by Melissa and Kat. When our attention is returned to the ring Justin Smith has regained consciousness and he asks Referee Patton what happened and the Referee informs him that he lost the match to Goth by submission. Justin is disappointed but the decision is final. We then watch as Justin slowly gets to his feet then he exits the ring and slowly makes his way into the backstage area.
Adams: I wish to use my famous four-word phrase on you Belinda: I TOLD YOU SO!!! I told you Goth was going to win this match.
Simone: Grrr!!!
The backstage camera person arrives at the dressing room Bill and Bea are using. They knock on the door and Bea opens the door and invites the camera person inside. They set up their camera to focus on Bill and Bea.
Bill: Shortly I will be making my way to the staging area to be ready to make my entrance for my match against Eddie Lyons so that I can break him for a second time in two matches.
Bea: I will be there with Bill, as his Manager, to ensure friends of Eddie Lyons do not interfere in the match.
Bill: I do not feel Eddie Lyons will hire interference. I believe Eddie learned a valuable lesson concerning interference in matches so I do not feel he is that huge of a coward to require interference against me in this match. Even if Eddie hired interference he is still going to lose to me for the second time. All that a few hired thugs will accomplish for Eddie Lyons is to still get his ass kicked, and the asses of those he hired to interfere in our match, by me and he will still lose the match to me and I will then face him for the Roulette Championship at the SuperCard..
Bea: I doubt that Eddie Lyons learned his lesson yet. Some people are just so damn stupid that they will step in a pile of dog shit with bare feet then continue to step in the pile of dog shit because they did not learn their lesson. Oh well. Should be interesting, and amusing, to see what he will attempt this time.
Bill: Eddie will attempt to defeat me again and he will lose to me again. Just because it is a different day and a different match does not mean that Eddie will defeat me.
There is a knock on the dressing room door. It is a backstage attendant to tell Bill to make his way to the staging area to be ready to make his entrance for his match. Bill and Bea stand up and walk out of the dressing room with the camera person keeping their camera focused on them. The three walk down the hallways and come to the staging area. Once in position both Bill and Bea both give two thumbs up into the camera. The two then turn away from the camera person and the camera person cuts the feed to their camera.
Climax Control 376
November 5, 2023
Las Vegas, NV
Bella wastes no time as she is back on her feet and she steps through the ropes and out onto the apron. Bella climbs to the top but Bobbie is back on her feet and meets her up there! The two women start to swing at each other, attempting to fend the other off! Bella delivers a right hand that ALMOST sends Dahl toppling, but Bobbie hangs on and she returns fire that Bella catches herself from a nasty fall to the ringside floor! Bobbie then wraps her arms around Bella's upper body...
Simone: What is she doing...???
And Bobbie brings Bella CRASHING down from the top rope with a...
Adams: Belly to Bobbie Superplex!
Rather than go for the pin, Bobbie climbs up the corner facing the fans and launches herself off...
Adams: Boobie Bomb!
Bobbie with the cover!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
DING DING DING!
Justin: Here is your winner -- BOBBIE DAHL!
Dawn raises Bobbie's arm as Bella struggles to recover!
Adams: Bobbie wins!
Simone: Both women returning after months of inactivity and only one could win, and this time it was Bobbie Dahl!
Bobbie then kneels down and checks on Bella, something that would have been unheard of over a year ago. Bella nods and Bobbie helps her to her feet and raises Bella's arm in victory, much to the fans delight!
Simone: And what a gesture of sportsmanship!
Just then, "Mine" by Halestorm starts to play.
Simone: What...?
Adams: What's going on?
And out onto the stage steps the reigning Bombshell Roulette Champion, Alexandra Calaway! She is greeted by boos and some scattered cheers as she stands there stoically, looking out at the crowd around her as Bobbie looks on from the ring. Alexandra then looks straight ahead toward Bobbie and the two women begin to exchange heated words with one another.
The video pauses and we see Bella Madison sitting back in a high backed chair.
Bella: It was both of our returns and it set us both on our paths since then. From there you went on to defeat Alexandra and I battled my wait to take on the SCW Bombshell Champion...while I have come up on the short end, this moment Bobbie...this set our paths. You cannot tell me that you don't feel it too. You cannot tell me that from this moment to in just a few short weeks, we haven't come full circle.
Twirling the remote in her hand.
Bella: One thing I was taught early on, it's how to separate personal from business. At Blaze of Glory, you and I have unfinished business and that is all about that Roulette Championship. I won't bore you with the details but I invite you to go back, watch exactly what I have been willing to go through. I have turned my page into the legacy that I'm now going to leave. I have my reasons.
Leaning forward, Bella smirks.
Bella: Nothing is going to stop the circle from being complete....and I owe you one. It's not personal. But this business...sometimes we don't have a choice. See ya late, champ.
The scene opens backstage at Climax Control where we see the Roulette Champion Eddie Lyons standing across the room from Bill Barnhart!
Simone: It's Golden Opportunity time folks! If Bill can beat Eddie is tonight's non-title Roulette Rules Match then he will challenge Eddie at Blaze of Glory!
Adams: The bosses apparently have a contingency plan in place in the event Eddie wins but Bill did win their last encounter!
Ms. Rocky Mountains: Ready gentlemen?
The two men nod and Rocky spins the wheel, it eventually stops on.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: Blindfold Match?
Simone: Oh good, our wrestlers will be literally wrestling in the dark!
Adams: This will either be a cringe fest or hilarious, there's no in between!
Ms. Rocky Mountains: Err, good look gentlemen!
The two men walk off as the scene fades.
Simone: Welcome back to Climax Control and tonight Bill Barnhart gets a golden opportunity because if he beats Eddie Lyons in this Roulette Rules Match there will be a rematch for the title at Blaze of Glory! Unfortunately the Roulette Wheel landed on Blindfold Match!
Adams: Both men will be wrestling in blindfolds, that's literally it, don't expect much chain wrestling here folks!
Simone: This will be interesting, let's take it to Justin!
Justin: The following is a Roulette Rules Golden Opportunity Match scheduled for once fall, if Bill Barnhart wins he will challenge Eddie Lyons at Blaze of Glory! Thanks to a spin of the wheel we know that it'll be a Blindfold Match! Both men will wrestle blindfolded.
Raise Your Glass by Pink hits the speakers and we see Bill Barnhart walk out from the backstage area holding a pink glass chalice in his hand. He is followed by his wife and Manager, Bea Barnhart, who is leading their English Bulldog Iris by a pink leash attached to her pink diamond-studded collar.
Justin: Introducing first, from Lawrenceville, Georgia, weighing in at 240ibs. "BULLDOG" BILL BARNHART!
When the song comes to the lyrics RAISE YOUR GLASS Bill Barnhart raises the chalice into the air. The crowd gives a mixed reaction to Barnhart. The three make their way to the ring where Bill hands the chalice to Bea so she can keep watch on it until the match is over. Bill enters the ring then walks around the ring playing the crowd before settling into a corner.
Simone: It's like Justin said, a win here will secure Bill a place of the Supercard.
Adams: He will be wrestling blind though! And literally!
Justin: And his opponent!
As Clouds by NF begins A fog fills the stage area, as Eddie Lyons appears in the middle, hoodie up, and arms folded. He stands there looking down at the ring for a few moments.
Justin: From Baltimore, Maryland, weighing 230ibs, he is the SCW Roulette Champion "UNBREAKABLE" EDDIE LYONS!
Shooting a fist into the air, Eddie pulls his hoodie down, and makes his way down the ramp, tagging the hands of a few fans along the way before climbing the stairs into the ring. Eddie extends his arms to both sides then drops to a knee, and punches the mat, he then moves to his corner to await the start of the match.
Simone: Eddie's last defence was a Falls Count Anywhere match against Justin Smith, this will be a different beast all together though!
Adams: And not just because Bill's a much better wrestler than Justin.
Holly takes the title from Justin and hands him and Bill the blindfolds, Eddie ties his own blindfold whilst Bea does Bill's for him and as soon as they are secure Holly calls for the bell.
DING DING DING!
Adams: I bet that's not the first time Bea's tied a blindfold around Bill's………..
Simone: I DON'T NEED THAT MENTAL IMAGE JASON!
Once the bell rings Eddie and Bill stumble around for a bit not being able to see much of anything really, Eddie uses the ring ropes to guide him along whilst Bill just fumbles about in the middle of the ring, Edie finds himself at a turnbuckle and starts firing shots into the empty space in front of it thinking that he has Bill where he wants him whilst Bill tries to do a lockup, only problem?
Simone: I think that's the first time in SCW history that a wrestler has tried to lock up with a ref!
Adams: And it's a good thing Bill isn't doing this intentionally because he'd get fined otherwise! Meanwhile Eddie's getting some shadow boxing done across the ring from him!
Holly backs off and eventually has to outright tell Bill that she's not his opponent and turns him in Eddie's direction right in time to see Bea ram Eddie's head into the turnbuckle. She insists that she was trying to help Eddie get his bearings together but Holly warns her against doing it again whilst Eddie stumbles back into a (surprisingly good given the circumstances) roll up.
ONE!
TWO!
And Eddie gets the shoulder up! Both men get to their feet and Bill, after fumbling around for a bit in the darkness manages to shove Eddie away towards the ring ropes sending him to the outside of the ring! Hearing Holly's count Bill decides to press the advantage by heading out onto the apron and hitting a running senton, there's just one problem.
Simone: Why didn't Bea tell her husband that he was about to hit a senton on the opposite side of the ring from Eddie?
JA; Because she's too busy yelling trash talk at Eddie to notice Bill's fall?Holly is too busy counting out Eddie to notice that and only catches on when Bill manages get back in the ring favouring his back and has to direct the veteran wrestler to were Eddie is actually lying, once he's on the apron again he successfully hits the senton and Bea offers him a kiss in celebration! Bill complies but completely misses Bea and kisses the turnbuckle instead! Even Holly is having trouble remaining composed at this point as Bea stands there, hands on her hips, with an annoyed look on her face.
Simone: We can all be thankful that Bill's blindfold kept him from kissing Bea and I can't believe that sentence just came out of my mouth!
Adams: I think it's safe to say that Bill will be spending April sleeping on the couch but more importantly? Eddie's back on his feet!
Eddie fumbles around a bit but as soon as Bill stops kissing the ring post Eddie acts on instinct and hits Bill with a dropkick that sends him into the ring post! Bill stumbles back into Eddie's arms and he throws Bill back into the ring before following him in and going for a pin on Bill,
ONE!
TWO!
And Bill kicks out! Both men get to their feet and, running on pure adrenaline, charge at each other, only to completely miss each other and knock themselves down against the turnbuckles, all thanks to the blindfolds.
Simone: Never thought I'd feel sorry for an SCW Ref but then we have Holly reffing this Roulette Rules Match!
Adams: And I remind you that these guys are wrestling to determine if Bill will fight Eddie for the SCW Roulette Championship at Blaze of Glory!
The look on Holly's face just screams "I'm not getting pain enough for this" as she starts her count on both men, despite the blindfolds both Eddie and Bill use the turnbuckles to pull themselves up ad go back to what they were doing originally, namely fumbling around, Eddie does eventually find a body and rolls that person up into a small package but there's no one to count pin because he's rolling up Holly.
Simone: Do you think Eddie will get fined for that?
Adams: Doubt it since he obviously didn't mean to roll up the ref! Wait, what's Bea doing to Bill?!
Whilst Holly is busy screaming at Eddie to let go off his small package (hehe) Bea has jumped on the apron closest to Bill and completely removed his blindfold to let him see what's happening! Bill takes advantage of this by hitting Eddie with a Back Suplex whilst Holly is recovering from being rolled up! Bill quickly puts his blindfold back on and by the time Holly turns around Bill has the blindfold on and his going for the pin!
ONE!
TWO!
And Eddie kicks out! Bill gets to his feet and signals for the Barnhart Shoulder Breaker!
Simone: Bill's going for the Barnhart Shoulder Breaker on Eddie!
Adams: Err, Holly? You might want to keep your distance until either Bill gets it locked in or Eddie reverses it!
Holly seemingly hears Jason's advice and keeps her distance as Bill goes for his submission finisher but Eddie catches him with a elbow to the face as he gets the Hammerlock locked in and then turns round to hit the Lyons Roar!
Simone: And despite the darkness, Eddie hits the Lyons Roar and sees the light!
Adams: Bill is out! Stick a fork in him, he's done!
Eddie goes for the pin!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
DING DING DING!
Justin: HERE IS YOUR WINNER, THE SCW ROULETTE CHAMPION EDDIE LYONS!
Simone: Eddie gets the win in his second match as Roulette Champion!
Adams: But who will challenge him at Blaze of Glory?!
Eddie removes his blindfold and celebrates his win whilst Bea removes Bill's blindfold for him and checks on him with Holly.
The sound of heavy rainfall could be heard when the shot opened up. There was a small shot of the GCU arena as the rainfall could now be seen. A sudden cut to the left revealed that they were not alone. A close up of the masked figure of Entity could be seen. Those ever soulless eyes are a primary focus.
It meant nothing.
Slowly but surely those cameras began to zoom out. Not such a close up on their face. Likely a good thing for the fans in attendance. No one wanted to be spooked at a wrestling show.
The loss you people prayed for.
The loss that Sin City Wrestling needed.
The loss that Ward and Underwood made happen.
It all means nothing in the grand scheme of things.
The Entity slowly shook their head from side to side.
I'm not going to give him the satisfaction of mentioning his name.
However, even he knows it means nothing.
And the reason being. . .
What is he going to do with that win?
Nothing, nothing at all.
It'll be the same song and dance.
He got an opportunity he didn't deserve.
Got a chance to face me. Got lucky with an underhanded tactic.
Got the win, but nothing will come of it.
He will do nothing with the win.
He'll fade back into the background once again.
Bravo for having the right people in your back pocket.
Bravo for the underhanded tactic.
But enjoy the obscurity that you have been in.
And will continue to be in.
For a brief second. There was almost a smirk that could be seen on their painted lips. However their shift in direction became clear at that moment.
That brings me to you. . .
Justin Smith, it's your time to shine.
Or at least that's what SCW wants.
Now that they found a way in their head to devalue me.
They think it makes you look like you have a chance.
They think it makes you look like a threat.
They think it makes you look like someone that can beat me.
After all, any given Sunday, right? That's the belief.
But surely, you aren't that delusional.
Or are you?
The Entity paused in that moment. Almost as if it was a way to let Justin himself soak in what was being asked of him. Although it was done in such a condescending manner.
You've allowed yourself to be here this long.
Zero credibility to your name.
No reason for anyone to fear you.
Everyone knows that you're just the resident punching bag.
That's not even an opinion. It's a mere fact.
However, what you need to understand. . .
Blaze of Glory, it isn't about a wrestling match to me.
I said it a week ago. Wins and loses.
Having great matches. Being the face of the company.
None of that means anything to me.
I had my day in the sun when it came to that.
They took all of that from me.
All I want is blood. All I want is pain.
All I want is suffering.
You're the next victim!
The slow zoom on that wicked smirk that now formed over the Entity's lips was every bit of disturbing one would imagine it was. That image was haunting for those few seconds before the shot cut back inside the building.
MIXED TAG TEAM MATCH
KAT JONES AND A PARTNER OF HER CHOICE vs THE BARNHARTS
The scene opens backstage at Climax Control where we see Harper looking confident as Joshua looks on.
Harper: How about we stop and look over my career in SCW so far?
Harper asked as she holds up a finger.
Harper: Jane, so far she's my only opponent who's no longer with the company and has never held a title, I doubt she's coming back with her brother either? Bea? I'm still waiting for a rematch with her, but I can wait, Laura? It was a great honour to retire a legend like her, what can I say? Mercedes? Beat her by DQ the first time, kicked her ass the second time, Courtney? Had her pinned but Mercedes attacked me mid-pin.
Harper lets out a frustrated grunt.
Harper: At least I paid her back for that BS.
Joshua: Harper, focus.
Harper: Right, sorry.
Harper shakes her head.
Harper: First match of the year against the returning Crystal Zdunich, she beat me, I admit that, but I got that win back last week, Bella was a tough opponent but I beat her, Tempest? The thought of wrestling her again makes me feel sore but I went down fighting against her, Bobbie? I was this close to winning my first title, would I have kicked Georgie's chair into her face? Hard to say, I'm fast with my feet but that doesn't help much if she gets the jump on me, Sam Marlowe?
Harper shakes her head.
Harper: I hope I get a rematch with her once the business with The Conspiracy is sorted, would like to actually EARN that win!
Joshua: Give it time Harp.
Harper: I know, and that brings me up to date, why the history lesson?
Harper grins confidently.
Harper: I'm the future of the Bombshell Division! Look at who I've beaten, former champions, Hall of Famers, hell I'll probably be the youngest ever challenger all year! And I'm not turning twenty until the middle of September, just under five months away, what does that tell you about me?
Harper grins broadly.
Harper: Kallie? Be ready to bring it babe, because I'm ready to prove that point all over again at Blaze of Glory!
Harper and Josh walk off as the scene fades.
The cameras cut back to the ringside area for the main event of the evening. The opening guitar riff to "Blame it on the Boom Boom" by Black Stone Cherry starts to play. The riff repeats itself once more. A British flag appears on the screen, waving with a gray filter and the lyrics kick in.
The familiar face of Ben Jordan appears on the screen. The fans instantly burst into cheers as a smiling Ben Jordan appears at the top of the ramp, dressed in a white shorts with matching knee pads and boots. Ben looks around the crowd, his trademark smile on his face. He turns his head to the left, winking at the crowd before slowly walking down the ramp. He moves to the left, running his hand along the fans, high fiving as many as possible, before moving to the right and doing the same. Ben stops in front of a fan with a phone and moves next to them, allowing them to take a selfie with the smiling Englishman
Justin: The following contest is scheduled for one fall. Making his way down the aisle! From London, England, weighing 220 pounds -- Ben Jordan!
He stands outside the ring, looking up at the ring, before moving to the steps and jumping up them. He ducks down and into the ring through the middle and top rope and spins into the corner, climbing on the top rope and raising his hands. He quickly jumps down and moves towards the center of the ring.
The lights begin to dim as the opening melody of "Watch The World Burn" plays through the speakers. Alexander Raven slowly steps out onto the stage, metal pipe in one hand. He comes to a stop at the center of the top of the ramp, and looks over the crowd. A cacophony of boos raining down on him. A smile spreads across his face, as he taps the pipe against his temple lightly.
'Yeah I got voices in my head again, tread carefully.'
As the song kicks into gear, he slowly begins to walk down the ramp. A slow, measured stride taking his time. As he walks down he swings the pipe towards the outstretched hands of the fans at ringside. Threatening to take their heads off if they get too close. As he gets to the step he stops and bounces from side to side. Further boos and disdain from the raucous crowd.
Justin: And now making his way to the ring. From Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Weighing in at two hundred and twenty five pounds. The Napalm Kingslayer, ALEXANDER RAVEN!
He slams the pipe down several times on the steps, before throwing it down right next to them, climbing the steps rapidly. Walking the length of the apron to his right, he wipes his feet aggressively on the apron, before stepping between the top and middle ropes. The crowd roaring their displeasure as he runs to the opposite ropes, throwing his arms out wide to his sides bathing in the vitriol. He checks the buttons at his wrists on his shirt and begins to slowly pace the rampside of the ring.
DING DING DING!
As soon as the bell sounded Jordan found himself exploding forward and taking Raven off his feet with a forceful double leg takedown. Jordan mounted Raven and started to land punch after punch to the face. Raven was doing his best to shield his face by putting his arms up. Yet, it was like Jordan was able to punch right through them. Jasmine was right there to warn Jordan of the closed fists to which was being ignored. Leaving her no option to start a five count.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
FOUR!
Before the five count could take place. Raven had enough of the punches and somehow managed to grab a hold of Jordan's waist to roll him off of him. Jordan was quick to get back to his feet. Raven was just getting to his as well. The moment he turned around he was met with a RIGHT HAND to the jaw. Raven's eyes seemed to roll back in his head as he fell against the ropes and took a tumble to the outside.
Adams: Ben just cleaned that man's clock!
Simone: I don't blame him one bit. Alexander has been making things extremely personal for weeks.
Adams: And last week, Alexander attacked Ben's friend Jamie?! Yeah, that punch was more than well deserved.
Simone: He does need to be careful to not get himself disqualified though!
On the outside Raven was trying to get himself back to his feet. Jordan was quick to drop down and roll out of the ring. Before he could go on the attack even more Luna rushed over standing in front of Raven. A smirk spread on her face like she had some type of upper hand. That was until Samantha marched right over and got in Luna's face. The two women began to bicker back and forth with one another as Jordan eyed up Raven who was sliding back into the ring.
Jordan was quick to follow, sliding in the same direction he came out. Both men were on their feet at the same time. Raven thought he had the upper hand for the time being rushed Jordan. Jordan ducked under his arm before turning back around and floored Raven with a LARIAT once again being back in charge. Raven was back on his feet starting to back himself into the corner trying to keep separation between them.
Simone: Ben is in such a rare form tonight. I cannot remember the last time I have seen him this fired up!
Adams: Well like mentioned before. Alexander has made things personal over the last little while. Ben has just managed to turn that into motivation that isn't leading him to make mistakes.
Jordan wasn't going to stop. Starting to zero in on Raven who was backed into the corner. That turned out to be a costly mistake. Once Jordan was close, Raven gripped a hold of his waistband and managed to pull Jordan forward leading to him smacking his face off the top turnbuckle pad leading to him stumbling backwards. Jordan was holding his face but that's when Raven met him with a THRUST KICK to the back of the head.
Jordan was taken off his feet with the kick. He laid face down on the mat for a moment. Long enough for Raven to drop down. Rolling him over and making the first pin attempt of the match.
ONE!
KICK OUT FROM JORDAN!
Adams: Alexander should've known better than that.
Simone: You are correct. Everything that Raven put Ben through back at My Bloody Valentine. A kick to the back of the head isn't going to cut it.
Raven seemed unbothered by Jordan kicking out. He got to his feet before grabbing a hold of Jordan's head pulling him up to his feet. Raven forced Jordan to double over with a shot to the gut before driving his elbow right to the back of the head. Jordan held his head as he stumbled away from Raven. Right away Raven rushed in behind Jordan and clubbed him in the back knocking him into the corner.
That's when Raven spun Jordan around and delivered a series of punches to the gut again. The last punch dropped Jordan down to a seated position in the corner. Raven took a couple of steps back eyeing Jordan up. Luna was right there on the outside talking trash to Jordan who was trying to come to terms with what was going on. By the time he looked up Jordan was looking up Raven was rushing in for a FACE WASH BOOT across the face.
Simone: That's going to leave quite the mark!
Adams: Forget the mark being across his face. Ben might've lost some teeth just then!
Simone: One of the stiffest kicks I've seen in a long time.
Adams: And to make matters worse. Ben had to listen to that jezebel Lunda trash talk him while he got kicked!
Jordan was leaning limps against the ropes. Raven grabbed a hold of his foot and pulled him out of the corner towards the middle of the ring. Quickly followed by dropping down to make the cover again.
ONE!
TWO!
ANOTHER KICK OUT FROM JORDAN!
Raven was now glaring at Jordan before getting up to his feet. Once again he grabbed a hold of Jordan's head but didn't pull him up all the way. Just to his knees before landing violent punches to the head to daze the man. With Jordan in the state he was in, Raven turned and went rushing towards the ropes. Using them for momentum and came rushing back towards him. He had Jordan lined up for a SHINING WIZA-NO! Jordan suddenly sprung to his feet before it was landed catching Raven off guard with an EXPLODER SUPLEX putting him down hard.
Raven held his back from where it had hit the mat but was still getting to his feet right away. He didn't have a chance to go anywhere though as Jordan came right up behind him and took him over his shoulders with a release GERMAN SUPLEX to the middle of the ring. Despite being planted into the mat a second time. Raven was still not wanting to go down. Back to his feet based on instinct alone.
The moment a dazed Raven turned around. Jordan was waiting for him, planting a boot right to his gut to force him to double over. Jordan hooking a hold of Raven by the head and neck before taking him over him with a SNAP SUPLEX finally keeping Raven down for the time being.
Adams: Ben out here showing his diverse wrestling skills with three variations of a suplex!
Simone: They might have been a different variation, but I could only imagine each one of them felt the same. Pain has to be shooting up Raven's spine right now.
On the outside a shot of Samantha cheering Jordan on was seen briefly. Back inside the ring, Jordan was stepping through the ropes to the apron. His eyes were locked on Raven as he began to shout at him to stand up. Raven had rolled over and was trying to push himself to his feet. Slowly but surely he did just that.
However as soon as he turned around he was caught by surprise with Jordan. He used the ropes to his advantage to take Raven down with a SPRINGBOARD CLOTHESLINE as he landed right on top of the Napalm Kingslayer. Going for the cover right away deep hooking one of his Raven's legs for extra leverage.
ONE!
TWO!
STRONG KICK OUT FROM RAVEN!
Jordan being the cool, calm, and collected man he could be at times. He just got right to his taking a chance to deliver a stiff kick right to Raven's ribs. Forcing him to roll over and screaming agony while holding his legs. Raven rolled over a few times to the edge of the apron. That's when he laid there for a couple of seconds. Before reaching up to grab the ropes to try and pull himself up there on the apron.
Raven finally got up and was using the ropes to lean against for a second. Jordan was starting to rush towards Raven for a SHOULDER BLO-NOO! Raven stepped to the side when Jordan went head first through the ropes in an attempt to knock him down. Before Jordan could register that he had missed. Raven rushed in with a KNEE to the head knocking Jordan back into the ring. Allowing himself to have a breather.
Simone: Raven just sucked the momentum out of the room for Ben.
Adams: That knee really looked like it rocked Ben.
Simone: As much as I might not like that man. I gotta give it to Alexander. These strikes of his over the last few weeks have become more and more devastating.
Adams: And all it's going to take is one of those strikes to knock Ben out cold. He's already taken some punishing blows to the head tonight.
Raven had swung his foot over the middle rope to climb back inside the ring. Jordan had crawled to one of the corners and used it to pull himself up. He let go of the top rope and turned around. Only to walk right into a kick to the gut from Raven. He wasted no time in setting Jordan up and driving him on his head with "THE KINGSLAYER" before making the cover on Jordan after putting him down.
ONE!
Adams: That DDT might be enough!
TWO!
Simone: Ben literally stood straight up on his head and neck! It's concerning how bad his neck condition could be!
THRE-NOOOO!
JORDAN FORCES HIS SHOULDER UP!
Adams: Ben is still in it! He's still in it!
Simone: This is a testament to how much of a fighter this man is. It seems like every time these two meet and it's a situation where Raven should win. Ben just comes at his best and makes sure it doesn't happen!
Raven sat up and his facial expressions said it all. By no means was he happy with the fact that Jordan still had fight in him. Being in this situation he grabbed a hold of Jordan before he could do too much and was attempting something, but Jordan threw an elbow back and caught Raven right on the bridge of the nose. Raven quickly dropped back and grabbed a hold of his nose rolling over to hide his face.
Jordan took this chance to start to get to his feet. Taking the time to turn around and look at Raven. Blood could be seen starting to soak through his finger tips. That back elbow to the nose just might have broken his nose with the amount of blood being seen. Jordan knew it was time to be a shark that smelled blood in the water. As Raven started to get up, bringing his hands away from his face. Jordan drilled him right in the nose again but this time with a right hand.
Raven fell back against the ropes with that direct shot. He rebounded off them and as soon as he did. Jordan grabbed a hold of him by the head and dragged him to the mat. Having him right there in the middle of the ring to lock in "CROSSING JORDAN" being sure to really yank back on the head and neck area of his bitter rival.
Adams: He's trapped him! He's trapped Alexander Raven with Crossing Jordan!
Simone: We saw Alexander pass out to this move once before. Is that going to happen again or will he tap out?!
Jasmine was right there on her to get a good view of what was going on. Raven was screaming in pain as he had his hand up in the air. Teasing the idea of tapping, but all of the sudden LUNA leaped onto the ring apron to gain the attention of Jasmine. Right away she was face to face with Luna telling her to get down. Something she was refusing to listen to. However the crowd began to cheer with excitement.
That was all thanks to Samantha sprinting around the ring and grabbing a hold of Luna pulling her down from the ring apron. Before tossing her into the guardrails right there at ring side. Luna held her back for a brief moment, but the last thing she was going to do is be out done. She exploded forward taking Samantha down starting to unload with punches. Only for Samantha to roll over on top of her to bring some punches of her own.
Simone: Oh we're getting a sample of what Blaze of Glory is going to look like!
Adams: Samantha isn't going to back down from Luna. And we all know Luna is a little off upstairs. It's going to be chaotic!
With the brawl on the outside going on. Jasmine was distracted from the action inside the ring. Raven was able to dig his fingers right into the eye socket of Jordan to blind him but more importantly force him to break the hold he had on him. Jordan got to his feet holding his eye where the fingers had been dug right into it. Turning himself around to be met with a LOW BLOW from Raven.
Landing that direct kick right between the legs. It brought Jordan down to his knees for the time being. Best part for Raven was it was completely undetected by Jasmine who was just starting to turn around. Raven had a firm grip on Jordan's chin and parts of his face trash talking him a little bit. His grin started to grow with the belief he had this right where he wanted it. Raven let go of the chin of Jordan and went running towards the ropes.
Using them for leverage to bounce off them. However whatever he had planned was completely halted when Jordan sprung from his knees grabbing both of Raven's legs and used his momentum against him. Catching the Napalm Kingslayer by surprise with a JACKKNIFE PIN in the middle of the ring. Jasmine being in the perfect position to make the count.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
DING DING DING!
Justin: Here is your winner, BEEENNNN JOOOORRRDDANNNN!
Once the bell rang to signify the end of the match. Jordan had rolled right off of Raven and rolled out of the ring. Raven was sitting up in the middle of the ring with a confused look on his face. He could be heard shouting and screaming at Jasmine, as if things were somehow her fault. Jordan was leaning against the barricade with a smirk on his lips looking back at the ring.
Adams: He did it! Ben did it again!
Simone: Once again defeating Alexander Raven. This time it was by pinfall.
Adams: One that truly came out of nowhere too. I thought the writing was on the wall after Alexander went low.
Simone: Way I see it. This is just karma. Every dirty underhanded thing he does. It comes back to bite him in the rear end!
On the outside Samantha was finally joining Ben on the ramp way. Luna had slid into the ring where she and Raven were glaring daggers at the two on the ramp.The stand off between the two really setting the tone for what the fans were going to be treated to at Blaze of Glory. From there the cameras cuts the the credits.
THANK YOU! to everyone who wrote for this show!
