Sin City Underground High Stakes X comes to you taped in front of a limited live audience of 25% capacity, wearing face masks and social distancing between groups, at the Orleans Arena in Las Vegas, NV. This episode will air on WGN and the Sin City Network, November 22nd, 2020.
Inside the Jeckel Family traveling freak show the Jeckels are sitting on the ground surrounded by the members of the freakshow.
Jack: Since our arrival, we warned everyone of their fates, but their failure to listen, has brought them their present faith. We are the Hardcore Tag team champions, and we have slowly thought you the true meaning of Hardcore. Raisa lifts her hand and fire appears on her finger tips.
Raisa: Fire burns doesn’t it Raab, you felt the fire of the Jack, and it nearly engulfed you, to our disappointment. Jake: For a long time the Monstimals were a team that people feared, they thrived with the hardcore world of wrestling, then we arrived and put fear into the Monstimals, you are right to fear us, for we are the true monsters, and we must inform you Monstimals High Stakes will be your end. Jack: Ashes to Ashes, Dust to Dust. Helena rocks back and forth.
Helena: Miss Vixen, you have been chosen to oppose me at High Stakes. Those who chose you have sent you to your end, Miss Vixen, you're a great warrior, but I have defeated you, and I will defeat you again, They have asked this and a Jeckel always does what They ask, at High Stakes you will hear the Devil whispering your end.
The camera slowly opens on a black SUV with its back door open, the camera moves to find Stewart sitting on the seat, his feet planted on the ground.
Stewart: Whatever the circumstances for the last show being cancelled, it’s okay these things happen. Stewart quickly checks his phone.
Stewart: Dax, I give you credit man, you a damn fine professional wrestler, and the pre show at High Stakes is in for a classic when we clash for the chance to fight Father Gerald on the High Stakes ppv. Dax you know what I can do inside a wrestling ring and you know all my accomplishments, as I know yours, but the question is Dax do you want it as much as I do.
That’s the million dollar question isn’t, we’ll see at High stakes who faces Father Gerald for the opportunity to become SCU Underground champion, a Title I’ve held more times than anyone. Maybe my time has passed and it's now your time Dax, but we’ll see about that won’t we.
Backstage we see Melissa Ruin and Kelli Torres. Dev stands between them as he gets ready to interview the two ladies.
Dev: Tonight, Melissa Ruin and Kelli Torres close tonight's pre-show on WGN. Then we hope those on WGN will turn on the SCWNetwork to tonights High Stakes. But before that, these two ladies will set the stage for whats to come tonight. Any pressure, any thoughts on knowing that SCU has given you two the best spot on SCU pre-show for SCW's biggest show of the year. Melissa: You clearly want us to say yes to that, but to me, that’s a no. Kelli: I agree with Miss Ruin. Melissa: Excited more than anything Dev, tonight Kelli and I understand what’s in front of us. When it comes to opponents, who better than Kelli Torres. Kelli: Maybe everyone else, I am so last year as you said when you spoke about our match on the SCW website. You want to help sell tickets for a match, cool, to say I am so last year then act like I am the best in front of me will not fly. Women up, Miss Annis. Melissa: D game, you only had to beat me with your D game, screw you, Kelli, ain’t you shit, I said the truth, you had one good year just one as I looked you up. You didn't have the best record in PHW so. Kelli: I never said I did, like you did your research. I love how you failed to mention any of that in your video. Maybe you would have had me worried that you would have a chance to win tonight. Instead, I bet you watched no match of mine in PHW but saw my PHW match record and wanted to mention it now like you know something about me. Melissa: Why so mad for? I saw how Songbird beat you fair and square, how you got dropped by Chase, or how you thought speaking so highly of Nina would have her take it easy on you. Instead, she treated you, not like how I’ll be treating you when the bell rings. Kelli: Dev, you asked about pressure, looks like all the pressure is on Melissa if she thinks spilling this information is supposed to spook me. Melissa: Will see about that Kelli, I’ll have you eating your words when the bell rings. Kelli: Oh shit, let us see you try doing just that mate, lets do this. The two ladies share a smile before turning around to face away from each other and walk off-screen.
Dev: Well, now, if you weren’t sure if you wanted to see tonight’s pre-show main event, I’m sure you do now. Sounds like this one is going to be the must-watch for tonight!!!!!!
The cameras go backstage after the show opened up with Henry, standing by backstage with his men in front of the camera, getting ready to get their second Hardcore Tag Title in their careers. The Monstimals have somewhat been on fire, but at the same time, they haven't gotten over The Jeckals, stealing their chance to win the title in the Hardcore tag tournament a month ago. Henry begins to speak as his men, signal for the title.
Henry Losak: "This is finally it, the time for The Monstimals and The Jeckals beef coming to close. They've always wanted a match with The Jeckals since the day they've walked into this company. It's disgraceful that our match is the opening of the show because this tag title match is more deserving to be the main event of this show or even the main PPV show itself, especially the match Max has, there's been no build-up or anything. Makes me sick how GRIME Wrestling isn't willing to push this match to the main event of the pre-show, not the opening."The fans boo, although Henry in his mind is right, the match should've been a lot higher on the show, and he continues after taking a break.
Henry Losak: "Anyway, we are sick and tired of having these idiots, trying to cost matches for The Monstimals both as solos wrestlers and as a tag team they are. You know damn well Jeckals that you are nowhere near as good as The Monstimals are. They've beaten every single team they've been put in front of them. We knew The Good Shephards didn't fit for the titles and they pissed all over the legacy of what hardcore wrestling means. We also knew that team that literally challenged us ran away, knowing we were the ones that should've fought them for the Hardcore Tag belts anyway. We are a better team."Henry was talking faster than usual with both Lord Raab and Samuel signalling the titles and punch the wall behind them slightly, showing the cameras they were ready to fight.
Henry Losak: "You see Jeckals, these two are more than willing to beat the holy shit out of you in multiple ways than one. Also, The Monstimals don't just want the tag team titles because they want to be known as the best hardcore tag team in the world, they also want to help evolve the tag team division, bringing new eyes to the product that even would encourage the SCU stars to make that jump to GRIME Wrestling to face us for the titles. Yes, we are willing to face even the younger talent to recognise this title for what it is. Of course, none of you fucks is interested in doing that. That's been shown time and time again you aren't willing to defend the tag titles even since you won those belts. Maybe you fucks have, but nobody remembers those matches."Henry nodded as he feels he has said quite a lot about the match coming up and what their plans are for developing the hardcore tag division in GRIME Wrestling to another level. Henry continues to talk about it.
Henry Losak: "See how impatient The Monstimals are for willing to do everything it takes to prove that they are the best hardcore tag team in the world? It's the fault of the staff also for making us wait so long for this violent and vicious hardcore tag match that should've happened months ago for us to beat the living shit out of each other to a point, nobody will stop us from doing so. We all know this is far from a regular hardcore tag match, oh no, we are going to bend the rules and let the world see that this hardcore tag team title match is the most violent and vicious title match the world's ever seen and The Monstimals with all the tools both with their bodies and weapons out on ringside, they will be walking away with the tag titles around their waists as hardcore tag champions they've should've been last month. Prepare to be destroyed by The Monstimals."Samuel and Raab bash their fists together on their right palm hand. They once again go up close to the camera and signal the title and the punch to the camera before they were sent to behind the curtain with the commentators talking about the build-up the rivalry has had so far between The Jeckals and The Monstimals before The Monstimals theme hits over the sound system.
Hardcore Tag Team Championships
The Monstimals Vs The Jeckels
Liam: The following contest is scheduled for one fall and is an Empty Arena Match recorded earlier tonight, and is for the Hardcore Tag Team Championships!!! Ding! Ding! Ding!

Sam rushes Jack and shoves him hard to the ground. He then grabs Jake and sends him toward Raab and also runs at Jake and Spears him. Jack tries to get up but Sam kicks him forcing him outside the ring.
Sam turns his attention to Jake as he and Raab pick him up for a Double Suplex. Jack slides back in the ring now holding a chair. Jack smacks Sam in the back, he lets go of Jake allowing Jake momentum to drop down on his feet and reverse it sending Raab into the air for a Suplex.
Jack tries to hit Sam with the chair but he sweeps his legs, tripping her up as he gets up from the mat. Jake Dropkick kicks Sam as Raab starts to get up. Jake goes for a spinning back fist hitting Raab knocking him back down.

Jack gets up and sees everyone in the stance. He slides out the ring and looks under the ring for something. Sam gets up and looks around, he doesn’t see Jack. Raab gets up as the two pick up Jake.
Jack comes from out of nowhere and hits Sam in the back of the head with a Kendo Stick as he jumps from the top of the barricade. Jack hits Raab on the chest, Jake starts to get up as Jack looks on waiting for Raab or Sam to get up so he can swing his Kendo stick.
Raab grabs a chair and throws it towards Jack. He moves out the way as Sam kicks a chair hitting Jack in his left leg. Jake grabs Raab as he gets up. They tie up as Sam gets up and hits Jake on his side with a jab. Sam kicks another chair towards Jack hitting him in the face.
Raab pushes Jake as he goes back close enough for Sam to grab him. Sam grabs him from behind and drops Jake with a German Suplex. Jake body hits a few chairs as Raab tackles Jack who was trying to get up. Sam goes for the cover.

Ding! Ding! Ding!
Liam: Here is your winners and NEW Hardcore Tag Team Champions… Lord Raab and Samuel McPherson… THE MONSTIMALS!!! The Monstimals take up their belts and walk up the ramp.
Backstage, Dax is seen stretching out in a sideway split position over two sets of benches. His hands are pressed together and his eyes are closed. He takes deep breaths in his grey sweatpants. We come in closer to see his tattoos more clearly. His head is bowed slightly, but as we get just a few feet in front of him, his eyes slowly open.
Dax: How badly do I want the SCU Underground Championship? More than anything else. Dax holds onto the benches and lifts up to bring his legs back to the front, and then onto the ground. He holds onto the bench to steady himself as he stands up.
Dax: I have mad respect for Stewart. It ain’t the first time we’ve clashed in the ring. Stewart and I went a few different rounds. As a matter of fact, defeating him for the Combat Championship is what cemented my reign as legit. We went round and round, I was the bad guy, he was the bad guy. But this time, we’re both the good guys. Dax begins jogging in place, getting his heart rate up when he continues speaking.
Dax: We both get the support of the crowd. We both have no reason to hold back. We get to impress the fans. The stakes really are high, bruh. We get the chance to kick off the live action tonight, and the chance to compete for the Underground Championship. Hell, our match has more eyes on it that Father Gerald and whichever one of us goes on to face him. This is a match for the ages, man… Dax stops jogging, patting at his face with a dry towel.
Dax: But one thing's for sure. I want the match more. I’m just gonna say it. Not to say your time has passed, Stewart, but I crave the win more because I haven’t had a time with the Underground Championship. That alone makes me more dangerous in this match. No matter what I’ve said in the past, I respect you. But I respect you enough not to hold back, and to give you the fight of your life, more than anyone else here is able to. Dax pulls his sweatpants down to reveal his wrestling attire. The crowd can be heard cheering from ringside. Dax looks like he’s taken by surprise by this, and then a smile creeps onto his face.
Dax: See ya out there, bruh…

However, Stewart extends a hand, and both men shake on a great performance, Stewart going as far as to raise Dax’s arm up in victory for the cheering crowd.
Earl is leaning against a white wall.
Earl: When this war between SCU and GRIME began, the SCU locker room looked to me for leadership, I admit that it had it ups and downs but as good as GRIME as given SCU has given it right back. Earl shifted his position .
Earl: At High Stakes, and yeah there are High Stakes in this match bragging right if you will, SCU vs Grime once again. All I see on the GRIME side are four people that De Luca has sent to their doom. I may have a sorted history with the Staggs, but Alexis is a tough as nail girl with a don’t give a fuck attitude, Halo is another hell of a wrestler, and Coby has been on the rise, which for you GRIME means the bragging right will be our at High Stakes, I take my team and SCU on my back once again and leads us to victory at High Stakes.

Coby steps out onto the stage in his black boxing trunks. His hands are taped and down at his sides. The gold trim on his trunks shine extra bright when the lights hit them. Cheers fill the arena.

"Unbreakable" by Fireflight starts to play in the sound system and a video montage of some of Alexis Edwards memorable moments appears on the screen.

Chad: Sea Green and Earl start the action off by tying up in the center of the ring. Sea Green hits a knee to the gut and then hits a Snap Suplex, bringing Earl to the mat. He climbs on top to pummel Earl. Rob: But Earl grabs hold of Sea Green’s second fist and twists it, getting out from under him. He gets him in a Hammerlock. He gives Sea Green a nudge as he shows off for the crowd, but still keeps the arm locked. Chad: Sea Green reaches his leg back and kicks Earl right in the dick! Earl releases and drops down to one knee. Sea Green gets warned by the referee, but he rushes up and punt kicks Earl, shouting at him. The referee shouts at him, and Sea Green shoves them to the ground! Darlyn: Sea Green has been eliminated! Crowd: NAH NAH NAH NAH, NAH NAH NAH NAH, HEY HEY HEY, GOOOOOOODBYYYYYYYYYYE!!!
Rob: A disrespectful bunch of little shits, huh? Sea Green storms out of the ring, mouthing off to the crowd as he disappears. Royal Purple immediately rushes inside to take advantage of Earl being down. She kicks the midsection, and then goes for a Sleeper Hold. Chad: Earl uses his strength to power out of it, but thanks to the asshole move of Sea Green, it takes him a little longer. He whips Royal Purple over with a Snapmare and then drags her over to his corner. He gives her a few boots to the stomach before tagging in Alexis. Rob: Alexis climbs to the top rope as Earl twists Royal Purple’s arm and raises it up. Alexis comes down with an Axe Handle Smash. Earl steps outside of the ring, but Cadet Blue does damage control and kicks Alexis in the back of the head. Chad: Damage control, or cheap fucking tactics? Cadet Blue lifts Alexis up into a Vertical Suplex before the referee ushers her to the outside. However, Royal Purple lifts Alexis up and sends her into the ropes. Rob: As she comes back, she avoids a Dropkick, and then does a Bulldog to Royal Purple. She climbs on top to execute a Bow and Arrow Stretch. Royal Purple tries to break free from it, but doesn’t have to try too hard as Cadet Blue comes back in for the save. Chad: Halo has had enough of this, and she climbs inside and hits the Black 13 (Claymore Kick) to Cadet Blue, and then nails one on Royal Purple for good measure! Alexis nods, but she picks Royal Purple up for the Put On Notice (Kudo Driver). She hooks the leg! One!

Darlyn: Royal Purple has been eliminated! Rob: Come on, GRIME! Get back in the game! Alexis walks over and tags Halo in. Halo steps back inside of the ring and dares Jim the Clown to try anything. She lifts Cadet Blue up, who is still seeing stars, and she hits a monstrous Discus Lariat, sending her right back down. Chad: The crowd cheers as Halo nods She watches as Cadet Blue barely stirs. She grabs onto her leg and kicks at her knee several times. She drags Cadet Blue to the center of the ring, but she’s basically just playing with her food before she takes a bite. Rob: You say that like it’s a compliment. Fucking savages, the lot of you. She walks around her, telling her to get up, giving the occasional stomp. Once Cadet Blue is able to muster up enough strength to get up, Halo On Fire (Bridging Fujiwara Armbar)... Chad: Cadet Blue taps before Jim can even get inside to make the save. But Jim is clapping his hands instead? He steps inside and helps to dispense Cadet Blue out of the ring, waving goodbye to her. Rob: Idiot… Halo makes the tag to Earl. Earl comes up behind Jim, who is still waving, and he takes him down into a Dragon Sleeper. Jim flails his arms around, trying to save himself, but it does no good. Chad: He starts to go limp, and Earl wrenches the neck. However, instead of taking him out with the move, he bashes the back of Jim’s head against his knee. He then drops Jim and waves him back up. Rob: Playing with his food, I presume? Jim slides outside of the ring and grabs hold of his balloons. Earl slides outside to confront Jim, and Jim stands there, almost as if he’s waiting. Earl and Jim begin trading punches as the ref counts. 1!
2!

Rob: Earl grabs onto the back of Jim’s head. Jim raises the balloons up to Earl’s face and pops one right there, and… Spiders! There’s literal fucking tarantulas in there, and two land on Earl’s face! He swats away at them as Jim slides back inside of the ring! 7!
8!
Chad: Earl can’t seem to break their grip on his face, but he slides back inside of the ring anyway! He finds his way to Coby for the tag as Alexis and Halo laugh, but help Earl remove the spiders. Rob: Coby rushes at Jim, who pops another balloon at Coby, causing angry bees to come out, chasing after Coby. Coby slides outside of the ring as Jim laughs maniacally. Coby slides back inside of the ring and rolls a few paces. Chad: Jim begins stomping at Coby, but Coby grabs onto his leg, and uses Jim as a shield against the bees. Jim screams out in pain, but only between his laughter. He is able to bridge a bit to pin Coby’s shoulders down. One!
Two!
Kickout!
Rob: Coby gets his shoulders up. Jim turns around and begins hammering away at Coby. Coby punches back, but he’s at a clear disadvantage. He is able to use his feet to kick at Jim until he can get Jim on his back. Chad: As Jim gets up, Coby rushes at him with ThatsWhatsUp (Running Busaiku Knee Kick)! Jim lets out a laugh as he falls down to the mat. Coby goes for the cover. One!
Two!
Kickout!
Rob: Attaboy. You can still do this, Jimbo! But Coby picks him up and sends him into the corner. He hits a rushing Avalanche, and then he tags Earl back in once more. Earl quickly sets him up for the E.L. 91 (Michinoku Driver 2)! He hooks the leg! One!
Two!
Three!
Ding! Ding! Ding!
Liam: Ahem… here are your winners, beating the bottom of the GRIME barrel… Halo Annis, Earl Lockyer, Coby Quik, and Alexis Staggs… The crowd gives Liam a hard time, heckling him as the four survivors of the bragging rights match join raised arms high in the air in the center of the ring.
The scene opens backstage at the High Stakes pre-show where we see someone who’s competing on the main show tonight, namely the challenger for Dahlia Rotten’s Underground Championship Ariana Angelos walking through the backstage area with her half of the Pride Tag Team Championship over her shoulder, she is checking her phone and has a puzzled look on her face.
Ariana: Come on! There must be a recipe for blackened chicken somewhere on the Internet! Maybe I should use simpler terms, what’s shorthand for chicken again? Oh yeah, cock! Ari goes to google images and (not noticing that the Safe Search option is turned off) types the following: “black cock”, we are, fortunately, saved the indignity of seeing the results of the image search but Ari’s wide eyed and slack jaw look says it all.
Ariana: Err, erm………… HBCarter: BESTIE! Ariana doesn’t even notice Carter running up to her until he hugs her from the side, at which point he sees what she’s googling.
HBCarter: Oh my………… Ariana: It’s not what it looks like, I swear! HBCarter: Then what does it look like?! Ariana goes to respond but can’t find the words before she pockets her phone.
Ariana: Can we change the subject before I end up in China? God, as if I weren’t nervous enough already! Carter gives her a confused look.
HBCarter: Why are you nervous? Ariana: I’m competing in the biggest match of my career on the biggest show on the SCW Calendar AND it’s for the Underground Championship! Why wouldn’t I be nervous? HBCarter: Look if all else fails, just imagine Brother David and Austin James Mercer in thongs! Ariana: That’s oddly specific. HBCarter: It works for me! Ariana shakes her head.
Ariana: How about I just help you prepare for your match tonight? HBCarter: Great idea! And no googling of porn! Ari shakes her head before Team Go walk off.
The scene opens up backstage, where we see Rainbow sitting on a packing crate in her wrestling gear as she looks down the camera and begins to speak.
ああ、私のデビュー. (Ah my debut...)
I find them very difficult and a little 神経ラッキング (nerve racking) because you want to make a huge impression not only to your boss but co-workers and fans but at the same there is a huge amount of pressure on you to do well and not screw up. But the thing is... my debut here in GRIME.... I feel nothing but confidence and some nervous excitement flowing through me.
I have made an impact here already with Esther constantly looking over her shoulder and perhaps others wondering who will be next. The reason I went for Esther and not the likes of Vixen is because I want to その土地の敷地を調査する (survey the lay of the land). Get to know the competition and what the standards are like and who is the biggest threat. I know that Vixen and Helena Jackel are the biggest of them all, but Esther is ... 何もない (nothing). As I said before Esther is just a stepping stone onto the ladder of success and so far I am already a quarter of a way there.
I don’t really know much about you Esther and frankly i do not care too much. What I do care about is ensuring my victory and using you to showcase my skills and talent and make you my 価値のないペットの雌犬 (worthless pet bitch) and after I am done with you... you and your friends can スクルク (skulk) back into obscurity and never come back.
And speaking of obscurity... Ruby.... I am truly sorry about last week. I really wanted this match and looking back... I saw that Gianni may have had a hand in that attack, but I am not 100% sure. But i can assure you that i had nothing to do with it. I wanted this match and i wanted it to go ahead. I am utterly sorry this happened.
ごめんなさい。 (I am sorry)
Oh... that reminds me...
Where is that thank you, you owe me? I never heard or even saw anything from you, just more bitching and ungratefulness. If it wasn’t for me you would be still sitting on the side-lines moaning about Gianni and not having a match and bitching about his talentless fiancé.
Ahem.
上に迅速に移動 (Moving swiftly on...)
You show too much pride Ruby, and this is why you sat on the side-lines. You didn’t want to accept that you could be in the wrong or whatever... but instead you wanted to play the victim. Which is a poor choice to make. If I was Max Burke... I would have told you to grow a pair and get the fuck over it.
私はあなたがルビーが好き (I like you Ruby...)
I like the no nonsense attitude you have, however, I didn’t like you being sat on the side-lines... and if you think I am showing you pity... then I am not in anyway. I think it’s a waste of your talent sitting on your ass doing nothing.
Now come High Stakes...
Here is the plan.
私はこの試合に勝つつもりです。... (I am going to win this match...)
You two owe me big time... but I am not going to allow this, and my power affect this match. We are going to fight and fight hard. I am not going to ask you to lay down... Instead I want a hard-decent 戦い (fight)... I want you to show me that I joined GRIME for a reason. But just remember this I will be fighting twice as hard as you two...
I want to this debut to be memorable and I will do everything in my power to win. So, you two betters be ready... because I will not be listening to any bullshit excuses about not being ready.
手に入れたのか? (You got that?)
Good.
I wish you luck and I will see you soon.Rainbow pulls off the mic and stands to her feet before walking away and get ready for the match.
Cameras cut to a dark room, unclear chanting is being heard in the background. The camera follows the chants as it follows a pipeline. We pass a boiler as we see dimmed light up ahead. The camera slowly turns the corner, we see two shadows from the candlelight. The camera gets closer as we see Le Coven standing over a boiling kettle.
The two turn to the left and take three paces forward. They both turn to the right and remove the top of their robes.
Celeste: Tonight you take on Delia Darling. They say she's the best to come from France. Jenifer: Ces gens n'ont jamais entendu parler de moi. (These people have never heard of me.)
Celeste: Maybe so, the best of France indeed, I know Delia very well, she won’t be easy to beat. She’s going to cheat if she has to. Jenifer: Elle devra le faire, mais ça ne l’aidera pas. (She'll have to, but it won't help her.)
Celeste cracks a smile which makes Jenifer do the same.
Celeste: Well like you, I have my hands fool tonight. I need to go get ready. Clean this up and meet me in the locker room. Celeste walks away to leave the boiler room. We hear the door close as Celeste leaves. Seconds later a tap is heard in the background. Jenifer turns around as does the camera. A shadow figure is seen.
Jenifer: Ça t’a pris assez de temps... OmAsa. Took you long enough... Omasa.
Omasa: 最初のメルロ、次はあなた。(First Merlot, you next.)
Jenifer: J’ai hâte d’y être. (Looking forward to it.)
The camera turns to Jenifer as she smirks then turns to Omasa as we now see smoke is appearing around Omasa, once the smoke clears we see Omasa is gone as the camera fades out.
GRIME Rules
Ruby Vs Esther Azarov Vs Rainbow
Liam: The following contest is a GRIME Rules match scheduled for one fall! Already in the ring, she is… Ruby! The crowd boos as Ruby glares out, clearly not in the mood for their shit. She also looks to the spot “Debbi” should normally be, and she clenches her jaw as she settles into her corner, but not without looking over her shoulders frequently.
“American Landfill” by 3TEETH begins to play over the sounds system, the lights begin to strobe through the venue as Rainbow appears through the curtain dancing before stopping half way and pushes her hair back to reveal the Rainbow mask.. Rainbow surveys the crowd for a moment.
Liam: Making her way to the ring, representing the masked members of GRIME, she is… Rainbow!!! She then continues down the ramp, as slaps the hands of the awaiting fans, she then climbs into the ring, where she then climbs the turnbuckles and surveys the crowd before climbing back down and heads to the corner, where she waits for the match to start.
The crowd is cheering for the upcoming action when “Problem” by Natalia Kills begins to play over the speakers. Red and white lights flash and alternate across the dim lighted ringside area. The cheering turns to boos when Sister Ester walks out onto the stage with Red by her side. She has on a denim jacket over a black bustier and matching bottoms along with black boots and knee pads. She wraps Red’s arms around her before playing with the long strand of beads around her neck.
Liam: On her way to the ring from Tulsa, Oklahoma. She is 5’3” and weighed in today at 113lb. She represents G.R.I.M.E. she is Sister Esther!!!
She grims as she leans up and tilts Red’s mask up just enough to kiss his lips. She looks devious when she brings his hands down to her thighs. She then begins laughing and she skips down the ramp while teasing the crowd and sticking her tongue out at them. She prances to the naughty music until she gets to the steps. She runs up them as Red climbs to the apron. He holds them open for her and she enters. She prances around to the beat before coming to a corner to get one last kiss from Red. She waits for the match to start.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
Rob: No love lost here as Ruby, Esther, and Rainbow look to one another with nothing but contempt for their opposition.
Ada: They all begin to circle the ring like sharks sniffing out blood. Esther lunges first, only to get clobbered by Ruby, and Rainbow hits a jab between the eyes.
Rob: Esther shouts out in pain, but she leans and kicks Ruby in the stomach. She grabs Rainbow by the mask and begins shaking her around from side to side.
Ada: Ruby grabs onto Esther, and she shrieks as she shoves Ruby down to the ground! She hits a Punt Kick to Ruby’s chin, and Rainbow grabs onto her by the hair and whips her into the corner.
Rob: She runs up the first two ropes and then hits a modified Shining Wizard. She rolls back and gets in position as Ruby gets up to her feet. Ruby shuffles back to avoid getting hit.
Ada: Ruby ducks under a Clothesline from Rainbow and then hits a Neckbreaker. She rolls Rainbow over and then begins pounding her head into the mat. After several hits, Rainbow reverses and does the same to her.
Rob: Esther gets up and grabs onto the hood of Rainbow and whips her into the ropes. Ruby tugs on Esther’s tights and rolls her back into a pin!
One!
Two!
Ada: Rainbow with a Rolling Senton to break up the pin. Ruby grabs onto the ropes to pull herself to the apron as Rainbow focuses on Esther, clobbering the young star.
Rob: Ruby drops down to the ground unnoticed. She picks through objects under the ring and then settles on… a barbed wire bat! She watches and waits until the right moment when Esther spins Rainbow over onto her back.
Ada: Ruby clobbers Esther with it and rakes it up and down her back. She tears into the top and the skin, ripping the young one open. Esther kicks and screams as Ruby pins her down with one knee, and a sadistic smile on her face.
Rob: Rainbow takes a note from Ruby and goes to the outside of the ring. She grabs hold of a lead pipe. She rolls back inside and as Ruby tries to get up, Rainbow smacks her over the head with the pipe!
Ada: Ruby goes down and tries to pull herself to the ropes. Rainbow twirls the lead pipe menacingly as she slowly approaches. She sees Ruby start to get up and she kicks her right in the side of the head.
Rob: Rainbow is making her presence known in her debut. She smacks the pipe down on Ruby’s leg, but Ruby only groans in pleasure. She bites her bottom lip as she moves over to the corner.
Ada: Ruby wants to get it on with Rainbow, I think, tracing down her cleavage with her finger and a come hither look. That’s one fucked up bitch. Rainbow points to her chest, and Ruby nods.
Rob: The crowd is roaring as Rainbow looks as if she’s going to give in, until fucking Esther interferes. She begins punching Rainbow in the back, and it looks like she might have found a way to cover her gloves in broken glass while we were distracted!
Ada: Esther is also one sick puppy, as she’s smiling as she rips away at the fabric of the hoodie, and the skin of Rainbow. She’s getting her jollies off with this. Ruby pulls herself up slowly, but she’s still light headed.
Rob: She holds onto the side of her head which is busted open from the lead pipe, and her eyes cross. But she finds a way to rush Esther down to the mat. She holds her down as she hits rapid headbutts to the former Combat Champion!
Ada: Esther flails her arms until she can get a hold of her whereabouts. She then rakes her glass covered fists over Ruby’s face. She then hits rapid elbows on both sides of Ruby’s head.
Rob: Rainbow pulls Ruby off of Esther and gives her a kiss through the mask, and then throws her down to the mat. Esther kicks Rainbow in the….. nethers, and Rainbow drops to her knees.
Ada: Rainbow looks up as Esther begins punching at the sides of her head, taking a few lessons from her husband, Andrey. She then hits an uppercut that sends Rainbow down to the mat. She hooks the leg.
One!
Two!
Rob: And Ruby pulls Esther off of Rainbow, with the barbed wire bat! She rubs it across the whin and throat of Esther, choking her with it as Esther claws at Ruby’s sides! It’s a fucking bloodbath in that ring!
Ada: Ruby nearly has Esther unconscious from blood loss, or lack of air, of both… And Rainbow is back on her feet, barely. She wraps the lead pipe around Ruby’s throat and chokes her with everything she’s got!
Rob: As Ruby is lowered, Rainbow drops Ruby and grabs onto her legs, doing the Crossface Indian Lock, with the steel pipe in her hands! Ruby refuses to tap out, even as she fades. The referee raises her arm up once… twice… three times!
Ding! Ding! Ding!
Liam: Here is your winner by technical knockout… Masked member Rainbow!!!
“American Landfill” by 3TEETH plays as Rainbow stares down at Ruby and Esther, both bleeding on the mat. The medical team is quick to come down and help Ruby and Esther out of the ring, while trying to coax Rainbow out to get treated as well. She refuses, and she soaks in the mixed reaction from the crowd, taking pride in all of the stirred emotions.
