The camera opens backstage to find Haylie Jo “Halo” Annis standing with a bottle of beer in her hand.

Halo: So, last week me and Kelli proved that we ARE uniquely gifted… and we do get over!

She sets the bottle down and nods forcefully.

Halo: We been bad ass sisters in combat since we got arrested together and last week we showed what happens when everybody gets the hell out of our way and we get to just kick ass together!

Halo extends her arms out so that she is encompassing everything around her.

Halo: And like she said, don’t worry, y’all, we ain’t done neither!

Leaning down, Halo traces a line in front of her.

Halo: Y’all seein us line up against G.R.I.M.E., me, Kelli, Melissa Ruin and even Merlot Ayano, we walk into that shit and go we ain’t goin no further! Y’all wanted a fight and here we fuckin’ are!

Her hands clasp and start rubbing together in anticipation.

Halo: And tonight, I walk into the ring with a woman whose family has lined up in that fight too! G.R.I.M.E. done fucked up when they made this a personal holy war by taking the Good Shepherds’ daughter and showin’ her how to walk the devil’s path!

She nods knowingly, almost smirking as she does so.

Halo: Well, Mother Mavis and me, we ain’t gonna have that problem! We gonna walk to that ring tonight and we gonna fight so that God’s Holy Light shines down on us and illuminates to the world how this shit is supposed to go! I’ve gone drinkin’ with Jesus a time or two. I have walked down that path that leads into the darkness and felt like I was all alone only to wake up somewhere to find I had me a drinkin’ partner the whole damn time and he never abandoned me the way everyone else did!

She pauses to point to herself.

Halo: G.R.I.M.E. thinks they’re the only ones who know what’s like to get down and dirty and wallow with the demons in the sludge but as Veronica Taylor and Angel Kash and their ilk have been only too happy to point out, that just ain’t true because I am the gutter slime that those people cannot stand! I was born into it and raised to think my demons were my friends that I should cling to until I just ain’t got the strength no more and through it all, I knew there would always be someone there…

She leans down to pick up her bottle.

Halo: Now drinkin’ with Jesus has brought me things I could never have dreamed of before. I’ve found a callin’ in wrestling, won me some championships, found me a wife and a family and found me friends to go to war with against those same demons that are still chasing at my heels!  Them hellhounds may still be on my trail, they may even be nippin’ at my heels but I know I ain’t alone in this war and I never will be! So Mama Mavis, let’s walk us down that Holy Trail and shine THE Light for the world to see! And if G.R.I.M.E. decides they don’t wanna let us show what those demons do when hidin’ in the dark….

She nods, motioning at the camera to bring it on.

Halo: Let them come try to stop us! My Halo might be bent, tarnished and possibly even on fire… but they ain’t never takin’ it away from me!    

Her eyes flash as she holds the bottle aloft and then drinks the contents down in one shot.

Halo: Time to shine, y’all!



The scene cuts on Cordelia Clark, who of course, is in a foul mood following the events of Violent Conduct. She’s keeping it simple at this point as she sits in the studio, thinking about the event no matter how much it pisses her off. She is able to maintain this anger as she takes a deep breath and expresses her thoughts.

Cordelia: Violent Conduct was a load of crap! I mean… really. I just wanted to remind every single one of you that I am a PROFESSIONAL WRESTLER! I am NOT, in any way, shape or form, a boxer! What is someone like me even doing competing for the SCU Combat Championship to begin with? What were the powers that be thinking? Of course I freaking lost! I was in there doing something for the first time against someone with far more experience than me. How in the hell is that fair? Was this just for the amusement of everyone just so they can see me get knocked out? Is that it? Because regardless of how you want to spin it, the fact of the matter is, I don’t belong in that division and I wouldn’t try to stick me in a division where I’m basically having two hands tied behind my back to begin with. Being in a boxing match with Merlot Ayano is like… well… Michael Jordan playing baseball… and we all know how well THAT worked out for him.

Cordelia pauses, expressing an angry, frustrated sigh. Her frustration is definitely coming through and she can even feel a temptation to punch the camera coming but for the moment, she’s able to hold off.

Cordelia: Oh and by the way… TECHNICALLY… STILL undefeated! Nobody in SCU has beaten me in a WRESTLING match. That boxing crap? That doesn’t count… because that’s NOT a wrestling match! I know that the Combat division is for the Neanderthals that have a thirst for that sort of crap, but I’m not one of them and now that I am done being a complete fish out of water, I can focus on WRESTLING because WRESTLING is what I came here to do! I’m just glad that tonight, things are at least starting to get back in order when I am in a WRESTLING match… thank god… against Krystal Wolfe and you’re darn right I am going to make a statement against that blue haired freak who belongs in the trash with every other social reject subhuman that infests this earth. I mean… have you SEEN her? Is it any wonder that she tried so hard, in vain, to try to find a tag team partner, but couldn’t do so because nobody wanted to team with her? No really… have you SEEN HER? WHY would ANYONE EVER want to team with THAT?

No really Krystal… that was so pathetic of you!

You’re walking around all night last week wanting to make an impact!

But… nobody wanted to team with you! How SAD! Hey, maybe you should put your struggles on your YouTube channel and get everyone to watch it and laugh at you because other than that… there’s no damn way anyone would want to watch that. In all reality? You’re just the blue-haired diet version of Ariana Lynx… remember her? Remember how I beat her twice? Get your head out of fantasy land and live in reality here.

This isn’t your stupid Magic the Gathering game.

This isn’t Dungeons and Dragons!

This is REALITY! And in THIS reality… or ‘canon’ as NERDS like you put it… people like me… self-made success stories with an Ivy League education are WAY MORE SUCCESSFUL than people like YOU who spend all their time, money and effort into stupid video games and nonsense that gives you an escape from realilty because you’re too damn afraid to live in it! People like you have to escape into a fantasy world because in the real world, you’re not good enough! Hey, maybe after I beat you tonight, I can put you on a path to at least having a LIFE! I can hire you as my own shoe shiner… or maid… or… nah… I think I’d ruin my own reputation if someone like me was seen in public with someone like you!

After Violent Conduct, Krystal… I’m in a real foul mood… and I’m not in the mood to tolerate any sort of crap from people like you!

Cordelia glares at the camera some more, letting out a little more anger before the scene fades to black.



Vs

Singles Match
Mother Mavis Shepherd Vs Halo Annis

Darlyn: The opening contest is scheduled for one fall!

A white light flashes over the crowd that is almost blinding. It returns to a more tolerable brightness as "Spirit In the Sky" by Norman Greenbaum begins to play through the arena. The crowd boos and gets louder when the announcer speaks up.

Darlyn: On her way to the ring from Tulsa, Oklahoma she is 5'10" and weighed in this morning at 145lb. Representing The Church of The Good Shepherds she is Mother Mavis Shepherd!

And the boos become louder. Mavis walks out onto the stage, folding her hands in front of her, making sure to show off the cross hanging from her neck. She looks around the crowd, her eyes narrow and piercing. She keeps her hands folded as she walks down the aisle. At the end, she walks up to the apron and climbs up onto it. She raises her hands to the air as the white light shines down on her. For a second she smiles and then she lowers her hat to the apron. She steps inside of the ring and walks back and forth while she waits for the match to start.

Darlyn: On her way next, from Hollywood Hills, CA, standing at 5’10” and weighing in at 144lb, she is your Underground Champion… Halo Williaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaams!!!

Life of Agony’s “Lost At 22” starts up and B-Brat walks out, smirking and twirling what looks like a long necklace as the crowd boos the second generation star. Halo follows behind her looking stoic and simply ready to go seemingly paying the boo birds no attention at all. B-Brat takes her sweet time getting to the ring making sure she milks all the attention she possibly can as she drinks everything in. She makes her way up the steps and slips through the ropes effortlessly, Halo following right behind her. They take the center of the ring and B-Brat walks up to the ropes, flashing hand signals to the crowd as Halo stands behind her, simply raising her right fist to the sky. B-Brat steps back and smacks Halo on the belly, pointing to her as Halo simply stands tall, ready for war.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Gena: Mavis and Halo walk to the middle of the ring. Mavis starts yelling and poking Halo in the shoulder as they stand eye to eye in the middle of the ring.

Chad: Mavis winds her hand back and slaps Halo in the face! Halo doesn't seem fazed. Mavis goes for another slap but gets met with a fury of body shots!

Gena: Mavis drops to her knees. Halo kicks Mavis in the chest just once which knocks her on her back. Halo grabs Mavis by the head but Mavis wraps Halo up for a small package!

One...
Tw...

Chad: Halo powers out! The two get to there feet. Halo goes for a clothesline but Mavis quickly kicks her in the gut. Mavis grabs Halo's head and drops her with a DDT!

Gena: Mavis runs to the corner and climbs the turnbuckle.  Halo gets up to her feet and runs over at Mavis. Mavis jumps down back to the ring, the two tie up in the corner. Mavis gets overpowered as Halo pushes Mavis away causing her to land on her rear!

Chad: Halo gets the Good Shepherd back to her feet. Halo nails a chop to the chest that drops Mavis back on her rear! Halo grabs Mavis to stand her back up. Halo sends Mavis to the ropes, Mavis bounces off and makes her way to Halo who picks her up for a power slam!!!

Gena: Halo goes to the turnbuckle and climbs up, and she jumps off going for Elijah’s Rise!!!  (Corkscrew 450)

Chad: Halo misses as Mavis rolls out of the way on time! Mavis gets up to her feet and charges at Halo, she jumps up in the air and hits a Swanton bomb! Mavis now gets to her feet and gets Halo up to hers. Mavis grabs her and sends her to the ropes. Halo bounces off and jumps up hitting Mavis with the Black 13!!!!!!!  (Claymore Kick)

Gena: Halo goes for the cover!

One...
Two...
Three!!!

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Darlyn: Your winner of this match via pinfall... Halo Williams!!!!

Halo rolls out of the ring, taking no time to celebrate as she heads toward the back.



The scene opens backstage at Underground where we see Krystal Wolfe walking through the hallways with a purpose ahead of her first match in several weeks against Cordelia Clark when she is stopped by Dev.

Dev: Krystal, you have your first match in several weeks against Cordelia Clark coming up next, what are your thoughts heading into this match?

Krystal: What do you think? I’ve been on every show since my TV Title Match, and I am still after that rematch, but they didn’t book me until tonight! What? Did they suddenly realise: “oh shit, the blue haired chick who was trained by Gabriel and Odette actually wrestles?”, they say no one stepped up to be my partner last week but they never bothered to say how to make that fact known!

Dev: Will you still go after the titles?

Krystal: If and only if Angel Kash beats me fairly when I get my hands on her again but we both know that ain’t happening! She escaped with the TV Title last week, but she won’t escape forever, and I will win that title! Cordelia is just a stepping stone for me and she’s about to suffer her second loss in SCU!

Krystal says before walking off.

Dev: Err, the ring is that way.

Krystal: I know, but I wasn’t going that way, Ari wasn’t kidding about those Duck Fat Cookies and she’s been trying to get people to try them!

Ariana: Krys, there you are!

Krys quickly walks off as Ari steps into view carrying a plate of cookies in her hands, Dev looks at the cookies, shrugs and tries one.

Ariana: Are they good or what?

Dev immediately regrets his decision and runs off.

Ariana: They tasted great to me!

Ari sighs before eating one as the scene fades.

Singles Match
Krystal Wolfe Vs Cordelia Clark

Darlyn:  The following contest is scheduled for one fall…

The guitar intro to “When Destinies Align” by Lovebites hits the speakers and Krystal makes her way onto the entrance ramp wearing a black t-shirt with the words “Critical Hit” companied with a D20 that has landed on a Natural Twenty over her ring gear.

Darlyn: Introducing first, from Adelaide, Australia, Krystal Wolfe!

Krystal makes her way down the ramp whilst occasionally slapping hands with the fans before she rolls into the ring and poses for the fans, as her music fades she removes her shirt and hands it to a ring attendant as she waits for her opponent.

The radio version of "Sucker" by Charli XCX hits the PA system and Cordelia Clark steps through the curtains, instantly drawing some boos from the crowd.

Darlyn:  On her way to the ring, from Princeton, NJ standing at 5’5” and weighing in at 125lb, she is… Cordelia Clllllllllllark!!!

She starts to walk down the ramp, obviously confident in her self-proclaimed, prodigious abilities. She has a smirk on her face as she gets to the ring, obviously enjoying whatever reaction she's getting from the fans. When she enters the ring, she finally acknowledges the "haters" with a 'hush' signal, which only serves to incite them to boo her louder. Cordelia has a laugh to herself at this, as she starts to focus on her match and the song fades.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Chad: They approach the ring, but stay back a couple paces and begin to circle each other. Cordelia makes the first move, tying up with Krystal. Cordelia uses her size advantage to back Krystal into the corner. She tries to overpower Krystal.

Gena: Krystal ain’t having none of that. She knees Cordelia in the side, but Cordelia still doesn’t give. She then knees her other side, giving her a bit of space.

Chad: Krystal then holds onto the top ropes and jumps up to kick Cordelia in the chest with both feet, sending her back several paces.

Gena: Krystal comes with a series of kicks, but Cordelia blocks each attempt. With the final high kick, Cordelia grabs Krystal’s leg and sweeps her off of her feet. She drops an elbow and hooks the leg.

One…
Tw-Kickout!

Chad: Cordelia mounts Krystal and begins to punch away. Krystal holds her arms up to block, but Cordelia’s speed and force begins to be too much.

Gena: With Cordelia focused on the face, Krystal uses her agility and flexibility to raise her legs under Cordelia’s chest, using everything she’s got to kick Cordelia off of her.

Chad: Krystal gets to her feet and she regroups. Cordelia is breathing heavily as she and Krystal circle each other once again. Cordelia tries for the tie up, but Krystal ducks, catching Cordelia with a hard Back Heel Kick.

Gena: Krystal then connects with a Spinning Back Fist to Cordelia’s chest. Cordelia stumbles back and Krystal hits a Dropkick to Cordelia’s knee, bringing her down to one knee.

Chad: Krystal is on fire right now. Cordelia breathes heavily as Krystal bounces off of the ropes, looking for a Dropkick to the face, but Cordelia spins out of the way!

Gena: Cordelia grabs onto the back of Krystal’s head and drops down into a Reverse Neckbreaker, flipping Krystal over onto her stomach. She grabs on with a One Arm Chickenwing Crossface.

Chad: Krystal doesn’t have anywhere to go now! Cordelia is wrenching the arm, holding it in place over the face as she leans in, trash talking to Krystal.

Gena: Krystal uses her free hand to try to inch her way toward the ropes, little by little. Cordelia does her best to ground her weight, but Krystal’s determination is just a bit stronger.

Chad: She is about to grab onto the ropes when Cordelia wrenches tighter and scoots back a couple of feet! The crowd is electric as Krystal raises her hand to tap!

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Darlyn:  Here is your winner via submission… Cordelia Clark!

Cordelia doesn’t let go immediately, but once the referee threatens to reverse the decision, Cordelia lets up.  She steps back and waits for Krystal to get up.  She is ready to attack when Ariana Angelos shows up for damage control.  She and Cordelia keep their eyes locked as Krystal slowly gets up. Ari helps her out of the ring as Cordelia waves them away and celebrates her victory.



Dev is waved into the room by Raisa. Nervously Dev and the camera crew enter.

Dev: Hello please welcome my guests, The Jeckels.

Helena: Thank-you for coming Mr. Dev we get so little company.

Dev: Um, thanks anyway last week Jack and Jake became the new Hardcore tag team champions.

Raisa: You speak correctly Mr.Dev, last week Jack and Jake obtained victory.

Dev: Tonight they defend their title against Javier Gonzalez and Eric Weaver who have had a fair share of success lately, what is your strategy to defeat them?

Jack: Mr. Dev, we know better than to reveal match strategy, but I must inform our G.R.I.M.E and SCU that you are about to be introduced to the reality of real violence, the type of violence only we can bring. Mr. Dev tonight Mr. Javier and Mr. Eric, must and will fall at our feet.

Dev: Do you fear any sort of payback from team uggo and the Monstimals.

Jake: We fear  no such payback Mr. Dev, they are the ones who will learn to fear my brother and I.

Dev: Tonight you face Angel Kash for the Uncensored Television Title, Angel has become very good at saving her title, what are your..

Helena titles her head side to side.

Raisa: We are very aware of Ms. Kash’s tactics, how are tactics against someone with extremely heightened senses, Helena through her years has heightened her senses, she will be quite capable to counter any tactics that Ms. Kash may choose to employ.

Helena: Mr. Dev, all I fear for Ms. Kash is how she will handle the  outcome of her defeat. Mr. Dev they require more gold and I will provide what they require, tonight Mr. Dev, Ms. Kash will be defeated, there is nothing that can be done to change that tonight, for they have written it.

Jack: So it shall be done

Darlyn:  On his way to the ring next, from Chicago, IL standing at 6’2” and weighing in at 230lb, he is your SCU Combat Champion… Eyesnsane!!!

Once he is in place the music starts and at the 15 second mark of the song as the arena hears, “Here I am” a blue spot light shines on Eyesnsane as he looks slowly to the left and then to the right before slowly walking down to the ring where he uses the steps to get on the ring apron and then climbs in the ring between the second and top rope. He walks to the center of the ring and turns and looks throughout the entire arena as the music plays before the lights return to normal.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Chad: Damian and Eyesnsane meet in the middle of the ring, tied up and pushing against one another.  The larger Damian gains the advantage and sets Eyesnsane up against the ropes.

Gena:  Eyesnsane leans through the ropes and jumps to the outside.  He reaches under the ring and pulls out a trash can and lid.  Damian trash talks him, and he throws the can in the ring. The referee kicks it back outside and admonishes Eyesnsane.

Chad:  Damian picks up the trash can and slides back inside with it, but Eyesnsane gets inside of the ring first.  He kicks the trash can right into Damian’s stomach. The referee knocks it outside and warns Eyes, who holds his hands up innocently.

Gena:  He goes to kick Damian in the head, but he moves and bashes Eyesnsane over the head with a hard fist, trash f.  He then Clotheslines Eyesnsane to the outside.

Chad:  Eyesnsane rolls Damian back inside of the ring and goes with him.  He instantly locks on the Snap or Tap (Crippler Crossface)!  Damian tries to fight it, crawling across the ring, but he slows down just short of the ropes and collapses as Eyesnsane locks on tighter!

Gena:  The referee raises the arm up and drops it once… twice… three times!

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Darlyn:  As a result of a knock out… your winner is… Eyesnsane!!!

Eyesnsane rolls to the outside to get his SCU Combat Championship.  He celebrates outside with the fans, raising the belt up high in the air, turning for all to see as they cheer him wildly.



Cameras go backstage as Henry Losak stands only with Lord Raab tonight, seeing he's been booked for a match, finally after months of not wrestling inside of the ring, until last week in the tag team tournament. Henry shook his head on the events last week with Staggs family and The Jeckels getting involved in the match. Although that does cause a smile on Henry's face, knowing they've got the future match with The Jeckels, but not the way they wanted it.

Henry Losak: "What a god damn joke this is. How low would The Jeckels go to a point they'll make a deal with Staggs family because they know The Jeckels wouldn't be able to beat Lord Raab and Samuel by themselves to accept hired help to kiss Staggs family's ass. Too bad violence and brutal wrestling were way too much for you pricks. The Hardcore Tag titles belong to GRIME Wrestling in the first place, not that shit show of Underground where their wrestling is for people who are too lazy to showcase how violent they are with their boring down to the middle skills."

There are massive boos from Henry from the damage his team did last week and Lord Raab signals for the slash across his throat with his right arm.

Henry Losak: "Shows how weak The Jeckels really are to get some other help when The Monstimals can do everything by themselves without any help needed from a bunch of cunts. I feel so sorry for Andrew Garcia who has to suffer the rage Lord Raab has for him to beat the holy living shit out of Andrew for something he's not responsible for. Samuel and Raab can wait for the day we'll knock out Staggs family and hopefully, place them in retirement once and for all."

Boos from the crowd as Henry has a smile on his face, being proud of his men for what they did in the matches last week.

Henry Losak: "Fact is The Monstimals would've won if The Jeckels would've waited for the finals to fight us, but knowing if they did, they would've got wrecked badly by The Monstimals and win the hardcore tag titles because we're the best hardcore tag team in the whole of the wrestling world. Nobody can deny that fact, even without the belts. Sorry, Andrew, for you to suffer so much damage you'll have against Raab, but you can blame the Staggs and Jeckel bitches for what they've done to us? Although Max Burke who is a fucking betrayer at his best to stab people in the back as he usually does. It's nothing new coming from him. Lord Raab's more pissed off because he was set up to be taken down and you will be blooded and sent to a hospital on a god damn stretcher. Tonight begins the whole world of hell from Lord Raab of beating every motherfucker he sees. Prepare to be Raabinated by The Masked German Monster."

Lord Raab gets up close and squeezes his hands hard and doing a fake punch to the camera before walking away with Henry as the cameras go back to ringside for the next match to take place on the show.

Liam: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand the challengers… Eric Weaver and Javier Gonzalez!!!

Javier charges down the rampway and slides inside of the ring. Eric does the same. They walk to each corner, stepping up to the second rope as he stares across the crowd with no emotion. After completing all six sides, they stop and settle into their corner and wait for the match to start.

Rob:  Javi slides down his back and goes for a Dropkick to the small of Jake’s back.  Jake grips onto the cage, but his gloves act as a barrier.  Javi tries to crash into Jake, but Jake hits an elbow to Javi’s face! 

Ada:  He grabs Javi and flings him right into the cage!  Javi begins shaking violently as Jake lifts him up into the Hokus Pokus (Flowing Snap DDT)!  He hooks the leg!

One!
Two!

Rob:  Eric tries to leap to break up the pin, but it’s no use!

Three!

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Liam:  Here are your winners and STILL Hardcore Tag Team Champions… Jack and Jake… The Jeckels!!!

As “Freakshow” plays over the speakers, and the cage walls are d'lectrified, Jack and Jake see Lord Raab and Samuel McPherson walking down the rampway.  Raab and Sam rip the door of the cage open, in pretty record timing.  As they enter, Jack and Jake immediately get into a brawl, slamming each other into the cage walls.  Eric helps Javi out of the ring, and then surprises everyone by flipping the electricity back on, causing all four men to electrocute while security rushes in to handle the situation.  Javi and Eric high five as they get to the back.



Kingingiseisha “Hitamashii” Shirasu is seen in catering with his GRIME friends Andrew Garcia and Ivan Darrell, as well as managers Johan Svensson and Giovanni Teixeira to discuss Hitamashii’s TV title  match against Helluva Bottom Carter ad Andrew’s match with Lord Raab.

Hitamashii-Carter, I know you’ve been impressive since you debuted, but that undefeated streak will come to a bitter end, and I regain that TV title, then go on to win the GRIME World title and be a duel champion.

Andrew decides to discuss the loss to the Jeckells and his match with Lord Raab as Hitamashii grabs a bottle of water and drinks from it.

Andrew-Ivan and I were screwed out o the tag team titles by Max Burke and Casey Williams, and they will get what they deserve for that travesty when they least expect it.  Meanwhile, I need to focus on Lord Raab, who is mad about how he and Samuel have been treated as a team, and understandably so, as former tag champions in their own right.  I will show Lord Raab that he is nothing but a shell of his former self.

Hitamashii throws away the water bottle and speaks again.

Hitamashii-Tonight, Andrew and I are going to prove that we are a threat and there is nothing nobody can fuck with us and get away with it.

Hitamashii cackles, smiles and he, with his friends in tow, decide to go into the locker room as the scene fades to black.

GRIME Rules Match - Non-Title
Esther Azarov Vs Vixen Staggs

Liam:  The following contest is a GRIME Rules Match, scheduled for one fall!

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.

The haunting opening notes of Joke’s on You begin to fill the venue as the lights lower to a crimson light that plays over the ramp where Vixen Staggs can be seen standing at the entrance dressed in dark tights and crimson halter under a studded black leather jacket.  Walking to the beat, her lips smirking slightly as she avoids the reach of the crowd until she reaches ringside.  Stopping at the side of the ring, she reaches up and pulls herself onto the apron and turns to offer a cocky salute to the fans before sliding between the ropes.

Liam:  Introducing from Ottawa Ontario, she is the current World Nightmare Champion Vixen STAGGS!

Vixen climbs the turnbuckle to slowly peel off the leather jacket and hang it from the ringpost.  She turns and relaxes on the top turnbuckle as she waits for the bell.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Rob:  Esther goes right for Vixen with alternating kicks that Vixen blocks.  Esther stops and catches Vixen with a sucker punch that sends spit flying outside of the ring.

Ada:  Esther then backs Vixen into the corner and uses her Combat experience to send Vixen into space.  She is relentless in her attack.

Rob: Atta girl!  Esther then grabs onto Vixen and hits a Snapmare, converting it into a Sleeper Hold.  She wrenches the neck as Vixen puts a foot on the bottom rope.

Ada:  Esther laughs as the referee lets Vixen know there are no rope breaks.  Vixen was really not prepared for this Esther.

Rob:  Never count Esther out.  There’s a reason she was one of the first ladies to join GRIME.  She uses her legs to pull herself to the ropes and she moves outside.

Ada:  But Esther still has the hold locked on.  Vixen uses her powerful legs and drags Esther right to the ringpost,  She grabs onto her and slams her into it to break the hold.

Rob:  Vixen quickly hits a high kick to Esther’s head and the crowd boos as she leans down and catches her breath.  She then slides back inside of the ring and picks Esther up.

Ada:  Esther tries to bat Vixen away, but Vixen picks her up and into a German Suplex.  She latches on for the first pin of the match.

One!
Two!
Kickout!

Rob:  Esther plays possum, getting just enough time to recover.  She gets a shoulder up and then she grabs onto Vixen’s arms.  She stands up and goes for a Kudo Driver!

Ada:  Oh, but Vixen locks her legs around Esther’s neck and holds onto her back.  Esther stomps around, trying to find a way out of the hold.

Rob:  She hits a Double Leg Slam to Vixen onto the turnbuckle.  Vixen holds the back of her head as Esther grabs the legs into a kneeling pin combination.

One!
Two!
Kickout!

Ada:  Vixen throws her shoulder up.  She’s not going to lose to Esther so easily, even if Esther has gone into overdrive.  Vixen slides out from under Esther, but Esther grabs onto her leg.

Rob:  She pulls Vixen to the center of the ring, but Vixen kicks Esther in the face.  Esther doesn’t let go, so Vixen hits two more solid heels to the face and she drops the leg.

Ada:  Esther holds onto her eye, giving Vixen the opportunity to get to her feet where she hits a Crescent Kick to Esther, dropping her.

Rob:  Esther tries to scurry backward, waving her hand up as Vixen stalks her.  She starts to slide out of the ring, but Vixen grabs her leg and pulls her in.  Esther tries to get up.

Ada:  She is hopping on one foot and she tries to turn around.  Vixen does a Dragon Screw and takes her down.  She is taunting Esther as she backs her into a corner, kicking her as Esther blocks.

Rob:  Esther jams her finger into Vixen’s eye and shouts out, and the crowd joins her.

Crowd:  LOOK HERE YOU LITTLE BITCH!

Rob:  Esther then grabs hold of Vixen and hits the Salvation Slam.  She rolls the World Nightmare Champion onto her back and hooks the leg!

One!
Two!
Three!

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Liam:  Here is your winner… Esther Azarov!!!

Esther laughs as she rolls outside of the ring, staring at Vixen as she relishes her victory as she walks backward up the ramp with a bratty bounce in her step.



The intro to “Fortune Favours the Bold” hits the speakers and once the vocals hit Ariana comes out to a modest reception carrying the cookie tray from her brief appearance in Krystal’s seg, she makes her way down to the ring and places the plate on the apron’s edge before rolling into the ring and grabbing the plate in one hand and a mic in the other.

Ariana: Hi guys! So, as anyone who pays attention to YouTube and Twitter will now, my YouTube Channel Recipe 4 Disaster hit one thousand subscribers earlier this week after its appearance on last week’s Underground!

The crowd gives her a respectful pop and Ari sighs.

Ariana: I mean, yeah, I almost burned down the building and yeah, Tad basically threatened to fire me if I ever suggested doing another segment like that BUT I have the next best thing! I made these Duck Fat Cookies for the channel yesterday and they are…………

Ariana says before grinning broadly.

Ariana: #ARecipe4Delight!

The fact that she said the word “hashtag” out loud causes a collective groan from the audience, but Ari doesn’t seem fazed.

Ariana: That just leaves one question, who wants to try one!

Liam immediately bolts from the ring as does the referee for the match following Ari’s seg and they leg it, likewise the wrestlers at ringside immediately back away from the ringside area and Ariana pouts.

Ariana: Anyone?

It’s at this point that Ariana’s bestie and fellow Team Go member HBCarter sprints down to the ring like a man possessed, he enters the ring and takes a mic from a stage hand before said stage hand bolts.

HBCarter: Ari, honey, I told you, those cookies aren’t for everyone!

Ariana: But they are delicious! You tried one yourself!

Carter almost throws up at the memory but manages to regain his composure.

HBCarter: Yes, yes, they are! Look, Alex has said that one of his rhinos wants to try them but will only try them backstage!

Ariana: Really?

HBCarter: Really! And totally not because Tad is threatening to have security drag you out or anything!

Ariana gives her bestie a sceptical look before grinning.

Ariana: Okay!

Ariana leaves the ring with Carter as the scene fades.



Vs

GRIME Rules Match
Lord Raab Vs Andrew Garcia

Liam:  The following contest is a GRIME Rules Match scheduled for one fall!  Making his way to the ring first… Lord Raab!!!

Monster by Skillet plays over the sound system as Lord Raab comes out through the curtain wearing his red and black wrestling trousers with his nickname The Masked German Monster on the front of them with Monster Energy logos on the side of his trousers with black gloves on both of his hands and wears a black and red stripy mask and ignores the fans as he goes up the stairs before going in-between the ropes and crouches down in the corner moving backwards and forwards, rubbing his hands and moving his neck around while looking at his opponent with anger in his eyes while waiting for the match to start.

Liam:  Aaaaaaaand next, he is… Andrew Garcia!!!

 The opening beat to Sully Erna’s “Your Own Drum" starts to blast through the speakers, as red and gold lights flash across the building, synchronized to the beat of the drums. The fans look confused as the lyrics kick in. Andrew lets out a roar, his arms out wide before he looks around the crowd, focused. The Orange Hulk starts to walk towards the ring slowly, stopping halfway down the ramp and turning his head to look at the booing crowd, his thumbs pointing down. Andrew shakes his head slowly and turns back to face the ring, walking down towards the apron. Andrew puts his hand on the rope, and pulls himself up onto the ring apron and steps between the middle and top rope, staring around at the booing fans as Andrew raises his arms.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Gena:  Raab challenges Andrew to a Test of Strength, but Andrew shakes his head.  Instead, he takes a few steps back to get some space, and he grabs onto Raab.

Chad:  The element of surprise lets Andrew get a few feet of leeway, pushing Raab back toward the corner.  However, Raab flips Andrew around and into the corner.

Gena:  Fists of fury flying at Andrew as he gets Andrew pinned into the corner.  He then picks Andrew up and sets him on the top rope.  He goes to pick Andrew up, but Andrew knees him in the head.

Chad:  Andrew hits a kick to the side of Raab’s head, causing the monster to go light on his feet.  He turns around, holding onto his head.

Gena:  As he comes back to Andrew, Andrew jumps off of the middle rope and takes Raab down with a Missile Dropkick!

Chad:  Andrew doesn’t stop there.  He climbs up onto the top rope and looks down at Raab.  He jumps off with a Frog Splash, but Raab moves out of the way at the last second!

Gena:  Raab hits a dropping throat punch. He picks Andrew up from the mat and trips him up into the corner.  Andrew falls into the corner, and Raab hits a series of Shoulderbutts.  As Andrew grips the ropes so not to fall, he is able to trip Raab up.

Chad:  Andrew maneuvers Raab into a Tarantula hold on the ropes!  This is legal in GRIME Rules, so the referee can’t force Andrew to break it up!

Gena:  Raab grunt in pain.  His arms reach out to try to pry Andrew’s grip away, but he has no luck at first.  After several tries, he is successful.

Chad:  Raab rolls out of the hold and onto the mat.  Andrew climbs up onto the top ropes, patiently waiting for Raab to get into place.  He rolls outside of the ring and grabs a broomstick.

Chad:  As Raab gets up, Andrew begins beating him with the broom handle.  Raab tries to pull it from Andrew’s hand, but Andrew spins it around and cracks it in half over Raab’s head!

Gena:  Raab is staring up at the lights as Andrew dives on top for the pin.

One!
Two!
Thr-Kickout!

Chad:  Raab gets a shoulder up!  Andrew almost can’t believe it.  He goes back outside to grab a sheet of glass!  He slides it inside of the ring and sets it up in the corner.

Gena:  He helps Raab up from the mat and he Irish Whip’s Raab into the corner.  But Raab holds onto Andrew’s arm and picks him up into a Powerslam, right through the glass!

Chad: Andrew arches his back in pain as Raab gives him a couple stomps for good measure.  He then picks Andrew up and does a Body Slam onto the broken glass!

Gena:  He is ready to lean down to pin Andrew when Roy the Pizza Boy comes darting into the ring!  He begins clubbing at the back of Raab, with little effect at first.  Raab turns around and punches him right in the face!

Chad:  Roy sends a Headbutt between Raab’s eyes and then pulls out a blow torch from his delivery bag!  He shoots it in Raab’s face!

Gena:  Andrew has time to get back up, but instantly he gets the Nail in the Coffin from Max Burke!!!

Chad:  Max Burke tosses Andrew to the outside of the ring as Roy fires up the blow torch again.  However, Raab grabs him by the throat and Chokeslams him to the mat.  He follows him outside as Omasa, Ivan, and Hitamashii come rushing down!

Gena:  All hell has broken loose as both opponents leave ringside!

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Liam:  With both competitors leaving ringside, the match has been thrown out!

[Underground]

Merlot Ayano: There are some mistakes you can’t come back from, Piper―

Her direct words and harsh tone usher forth the picture. A close up of the Sin City Underground Combat Champion’s face can be seen in front of a black backer. Her usual tiredness is enhanced by some anger and annoyance.

Merlot Ayano: There are two things in Merlot’s book that require a severe ass beating.

The camera pulls back a bit to reveal Merlot holding up one finger.

Merlot Ayano: One. Disrespecting Merlot’s family.

She holds up another finger.

Merlot Ayano: Two. Disrespecting Merlot.

She folds both of her arms across her chest.

Merlot Ayano: Is no doubt that Piper showed disrespect by getting involved in business that no belong to her and attacking Merlot. Those actions don’t make Piper tough; they don’t make Piper a badass. If anything, proves Piper no think things through.

Merlot nods her head.

Merlot Ayano: Now? Piper has to get dealt with in more serious manner. Beating Piper isn’t sufficient any longer. Now have to make example and show Piper true extent of her error.

Her eyes continue to gaze at the camera.

Merlot Ayano: This won’t be the shot at Merlot that Piper wanted. But it’s the one she’s going to get. Hai.

The picture fades away moments later.

Singles Match - Uncensored Television Championship
Helena Jeckel Vs Angel Kash

Darlyn:  The following contest is scheduled for one fall and is for the Uncensored Television Championship! Coming to the ring first, from Transylvania, Romania, standing at 5'8" and weighing in at 150lb, she is... Helena Jeckel!!!

“Freak Show” plays. Smoke and fire cover the stage. Helena walks slowly, Helena slides under the ropes. Helena crawls and sits by the ropes and rocks back and forth.

The fans begin to boo loudly as "Superficial" by Heidi Montag hits over the public address system

It aint that easy, it aint that easy
it aint that easy, but it aint so hard
It aint that easy, it aint that easy
it aint that easy, but it aint so hard

As the lights dim and flash gold all over the arena, a lone spotlight forms at the entrance ramp as out from the back first steps Leroy with a stern look on his face. After a few moments, Todd walks out from behind him, looking nervous. As he claps within a few seconds in arrogant and exaggerated fashion, Angel Kash herself walks out as the fans boo loudly.

Darlyn:  And next, from The Hamptons, NY, standing at 5’9” and weighing in at 125lb, she is your Uncensored Television Champion, “The Trillion Dollar Princess”... Angel Kaaaaaaaaaaaashhhhhhhhhh!!!

Hoppin' out the maserati
All I see is paparazzi
Snapping pictures for the
Front cover of a magazine
So I pose in everything I wear
Love to make the people stare
Always center of attention
Lookin' so bootylicious

Angel blows an arrogant kiss to the fans before doing a series of arrogant poses at the top of the ramp. She then says something to Todd and Leroy as they first go ahead, before the arrogant rich blonde bombshell does an arrogant supermodel like strut down to the ring, taunting the fans as she walks by them, before rudely sticking out her hand, and flipping her hair arrogantly as she brushes past the fans, not letting them even come close to touching her. She makes her way up the ring steps with Leroy, holding her hand from the outside, as Todd is standing in front of her on the ring apron. Angel then points down as he holds the ropes for her; she enters and poses in the center of the ring as the fans boo loudly. After that, she lays on the top turnbuckle nonchalantly taunting the fans as Todd hands her a mirror and she admires her beauty.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Chad: Angel seems to be getting a bit angry with Helena just ignoring her yelling in her face… Angel smacks Helena hard then tackles her down. Angel grabs Helena’s head and lifts it up the mat then slams it down to the mat!

Gena: Angel gets off Helena and turns to look at the fans who start booing her. Angel taunts the crowd as they boo louder… Angel turns back around to Helena who does a Kip Up, Angel goes to grab Helena who blocks it.

Chad: Helena grabs Angel for a Belly to Belly Suplex!! Helena goes to pick up Angel but gets poked in the eye! Helena backs off as Angel runs at Helena… Angel hits Helena with one heck of a Clothesline from hell as Helena flips in mid air before hitting the floor!!!

Gena: Angel gets Helena to her feet… Angel grabs… Helena grabs Angel first and rolls a small package on Angel!!

1..

Chad: Just a one count as Angel quickly kicks out.

Gena: The two get up… Angel goes for a Superkick but misses as Helena ducks it… Helena grabs her and lifts her onto her shoulder for her Torture Rack. Helena has Angel up and has yet to even change her facial expression this whole time!

Chad:  Angel shouts out, but it’s hard to understand what she’s saying through the shaking in her voice from the pain.  Helena continues to bounce, keeping the move locked on tightly.

Gena:  She walks around the ring with the champ on her shoulders!  This could be terrible news for SCU right now as Angel looks as if she will tap any second now!

Chad:  But wait!  The Monstimals rush out to the ring.  Samuel kicks Helena in the gut and then nails a Powerslam on her!

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Liam:  As a result of a disqualification… here is your winner… Helena Jeckel!  But, championships cannot change hands due to disqualification, so STILL Uncensored TV Champion… Angel Kash!!!

The crowd gives off a mixed reaction as Angel grabs a microphone.  She breathes heavily and winces in pain, while Raab picks Helena up for a Chokeslam.  He glares down at her with one of his eyes reddened from the blow torch earlier tonight.  Sam picks her up and nails a Powerslam as Angel waves him away.

Angel:  You did your job.  Now you peasants can go…

The crowd boos as Angel hands the check over to Henry Losak.  However, Sam and Raab slowly back Angel into a corner, intimidating her as they get ever so close to her.  Henry smiles widely at this.  Raab grabs her by the throat and lifts her up, but Henry calls him off at the last second.  Both Monstimals leave the ring, while Angel holds onto her throat, coughing.

Angel:  Next time you disgusting creatures lay hands on me, I’ll have your hands as gross little trophies in my summer home!  And do you know why?  Because I am Angel Freaking Kash, and I have the money to make anything possible.  Just like I had the money to hire a little extra insurance tonight, from two goons who were more than happy to do what I asked because of what Erik Staggs and Hella Ugly Jeckel did to them last week.

Angel crinkles her nose with a bitchy smile as she turns away from the Monstimals exiting and looks out into the crowd. As Valentina enters the ring with the Uncensored TV Championship.  She puts it around Angel’s waist before she continues speaking.

Angel:  I’m sure you didn’t have any trouble chaining those circus freaks back in the boiler room where they belong?

Valentina:  It was too easy.  Those pendejos chingados are not the smartest, so I lured them in no problem.  I got you, Ange…

Angel: Good, now as we said the Boss Bitches are taking over this show, and time and time again things have gone my way. I finally got rid of Melissa Ruin by soundly defeating her in a cage match, this week once again I retain the SCU Television title.

The fans boo loudly as Angel smirks rubbing the face plate of her title belt. Before speaking in her arrogant tone.

Angel: And this scene will be the scene you will see time and time again. They will all come and I will put them down why? Because I am what I say I am. And that is a natural born goddess, and that is the Golden Queen of SCU. And with Valentina at my side there's nothing anyone can do about it.

Angel Kash let out an evil chuckle. Valentina sneers as she accepts the microphone from Angel. She waits as the fans shout all kinds of insulting profanities at her. She crosses one arm over her chest and taps her foot impatiently.

Valentina: You done? Great. Important people are speaking, so it's time you shut your filthy fucking mouths. Angel has the TV division locked down. I got my sights set on other things in the meantime for myself. But know that we're taking over. If you thought that GRIME was bad, well… you saw what we just did…

Angel and Val look to one another and laugh in a bitchy way and then they lock hands to show solidarity.



Backstage at the Mandalay Bay Events Center, the reigning SCU Television Champion Helluva Bottom Carter is spotted creeping along the halls. He is dressed and ready for tonight's TV title defense, complete with his Austin James Mercer shirt with sleeves cutoff, black, latex booty shorts and high heel boots. At the sight of the popular and flamboyant young man on the SCU-Tron above the entrance stage, the crowd on hand cheers as they watch on to see what exactly he is up to.

Chad: What is Carter up to? It looks like he's up to something.

Gena: Or avoiding someone. Has Ariana been cooking backstage again?

Chad: I don't think so. The EPA hasn't evacuated anyone yet.

Carter then comes to a turning point in the hall, where around the corner leads to the dressing rooms of the men and women of Sin City Underground. Carter then reaches down into his short and removes a compact and slowly lowers himself to his knees. He opens the mirror and uses it to coyly sneak a peek around the corner and see if there was anyone there -- or more to the point, whether or not a certain someone was there.

Seemingly satisfied, Carter smiles and gets back into a standing position and turns around -- and is face-to-face with backstage reporter, Marissa Henry, startling him.

HBCarter: AHH!

Marissa: AHH!

And startling the reporter as well! Both stumble back, Marissa clutching her chest while Carter looks around frantically and waves his hands.

HBCarter: Shhh! You're making too much noise!

Marissa: Oh my word! Carter, what are you doing skulking about backstage like that for??

HBCarter: Me!? What are you doing sneaking up on me like that!? At least next time have the decency to talk dirty -- and look more like Austin James Mercer!

Marissa is about to say something in her defense, but her mouth remains open and is unable to finish her train of thought thanks in part to Carter's flamboyant nature and never care attitude. After a brief moment, Marissa collects herself.

Marissa: I-I asked you first. You seem awfully jittery, Carter. Is Ariana cooking again?

HBCarter: Yes... no! I mean, she is but don't jinx it! I have an important match tonight and I'd rather not go in at a disadvantage with rocks in my stomach!

Marissa: Well, that was going to be my next guess. I was going to ask if you were nervous about this title defense tonight.

Carter looks one way, then realizes what she just asked and does a double take.

HBCarter: I wouldn't say I'm nervous. Just cautious, and not for the reasons GRIME would like to believe.

Marissa: Then -- why?

HBCarter: Mainly because where one member of GRIME goes, you know others won't be far behind. And they do whatever they have to in order to cheat someone else out of a win.

Marissa: You think GRIME will be out there to try and help Hitamashii steal the TV title?

HBCarter: Well I wouldn't put it past them, would you? They don't have the balls to face anyone on even and fair terms, so why should this match with that SCW castoff be any different?

Marissa: Well, Hitamashii has held SCU gold before GRIME.

HBCarter: Look, I'm not saying the guy isn't talented, because he is. or he was. But that was before GRIME. Now he relies on their help just like they all do. And all that talent he had before?

Carter blows a raspberry and jets a thumb back over his shoulder.

HBCarter: It's like a muscle that atrophies from lack of use. I have friends around too that will watch my back, and what is Hitamashii going to do when the odds aren't stacked in his favor, or his friends can't help? I haven't been beaten yet in singles competition and I'm sure as hell not going to drop my first match to someone from GRIME!

Carter then frowns and holds his arms out.

HBCarter: And why exactly is someone from GRIME getting a shot at a SCU title when they have their own belts to compete for? I don't see anyone from SCU challenging for a GRIME title! Although that's not altogether a bad thing. I'd rather be competing for the real championships, not ones from that sad little new world order!

Marissa: Were you surprised at all that you were booked in a second defense so soon, a week after you defended against Alex Rush?

HBCarter: A week after I successfully defended against Pride Tag Team Champion Alex Rush, you mean! People can say what they want but that man is a riot and an altogether great guy! And if he could get it out of his head that I'm not a chick and not Ari's lesbian lover, I think we'd get along even better. And I can tell you, I went through worse against Alex than I will against Hitamashii!

Marissa: yes, did you ever return that cardboard cut out of Brother David?

HBCarter: No I-- cheese it! It's da man!

Carter suddenly darts around the corner and takes off in a mad dash, leaving Marissa perplexed until Ariana Angelos pops up beside her with a big smile and an even bigger plate of cookies.

Ariana: Cookie?

Marissa: oh -- er, no. I can't. Diet.

Ariana looks at her cookies and shakes her head.

Ariana: It must be a holiday thing. Everybody backstage is on a diet.

GRIME Rules Match - Non-Title
Piper Beckett Vs Merlot Ayano

Liam: The following contest is scheduled for one fall and will be cntested under GRIME Rules!

“I’m gonna show you…” can be heard playing out as lights flash and a female silhouette can be seen backlit at the entrance way.

Liam: From Anaheim, CA standing at five nine and weighing in at one hundred thirty three pounds, Piper Beckett!!!

Stepping into the light, Piper Beckett smirks at the fans around the ringside area as she moves down to the ring.  She poses just out of reach of the fans and snaps a selfie or two of the fans reach out towards her.  Blowing a cocky kiss to the fans over her shoulder, she climbs the ringsteps and then slides between the ropes.  Setting her phone down on the canvas at ringside, she slowly peels off a satin jacket to reveal her wrestling gear.

The fans sit and wait as the lights in the arena phase out. Everyone sits in silence until the chaotic rifts of symphonic sounds of exist†trace’s “Futatsu no Roe” begins to pump throughout air. A couple of lights at the base of the entrance ramp flicker on.

Darlyn:  On her way to the ring, from Osaka, Japan, standing at 5’5” and weighing in at 133lb, she is… Merlot Ayyyyyyyyyanooooooooooo!!!

Merlot Ayano stands with her back turned as the beams illuminate her. She quickly raises her right fist in the air before using both of her hands to blow kisses into the air. She then spins around and lets out great shout just as the song begins to ramp up. She scans the cheering crowd and stretches out her right arm as she makes her way down to the ring. Merlot heads directly towards the steps upon reaching the end of the entrance ramp. She wipes her boots on the apron before stepping through the ropes. Merlot strolls around the ring as the lights return before heading to one of the corners. She uses the ropes to get loose and stretch out her legs before the bell rings

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Chad: Merlot and Piper run to the middle, Piper goes for a forearm that catches Merlot and has her staggering. Piper runs and goes for a clothesline that drops Merlot on her rear. Piper grabs Merlot’s arm to get her to her feet while locking in a wrist lock… Merlot hits a stiff kick to Piper leg, another stiff kick. Piper lets go of the wrist lock, Merlot hits a third stiff kick to her leg.

Ada: Piper backs away, Merlot rushes at Piper jumping forward for a running knee that connects to Piper’s jaw. Piper goes down, Merlot runs to the ropes as Piper sits up. Merlot bonus off and heads back hitting Piper with another running knee to the face!

Chad: Merlot gets to her feet while helping Piper to hers. Merlot wraps her arms around Piper and lifts her up, Merlot turns around as she drops Piper with a belly-to-belly suplex. Merlot gets to her feet and gets on the top turnbuckle.

Ada: Merlot stands there keeping her balance as Piper slowly starts to sit up, Piper gets to her feet and turns to see Merlot on the top turnbuckle. Piper charges towards the corner, Merlot jumps off, jumping over Piper. Merlot lands on her feet as Piper turns around to face the champion. Merlot jumps backwards and nails a pele kick to Piper.

Chad: Piper stumbles over to the corner, Merlot rushes in and hits a spear onto Piper. Piper holds her gut but Merlot wastes no time as she backs away then nails Piper with a hard knife chop to the chest. Merlot nails a second one.

Ada: Okay, not Merlot made Piper mad. Merlot’s about to get Piper’s wrath!

Chad: Merlot goes for another chop but Piper gets a foot up to kick Merlot as she tries to create some gap between the two. Piper rushes in and nails a clothesline, Piper grabs Merlot and sends her to the ropes.

Ada: See, I told you Piper was going to make Merlot pay.

Chad: Merlot bounces off the ropes heading back to Piper. Piper goes for a superkick but misses as Merlot ducks underneath Piper’s foot.

Ada:  Merlot stops and turns around as Piper gets her foot down. Piper turns around to face Merlot…

Chad: High Velocity Roundhouse!!!

Ada: I can’t believe it! Merlot goes for the cover.

One…
Two…
Three!!!

Dint! Ding! Ding!

Darlyn: Your winner of this match by pinfall… The Comabt Champion… Merlot Ayano!!!

Chad: Just like that Merlot is the winner of this match. Merlot walked in and wasted no time to end this one. A message to SCU, to all in GRIME and to Omasa Tazu.

Ada: Merlot is biting more than she can chew if she wants a piece of Omasa.

Chad: Omasa calls out Merlot everytime we see her. Merlot doesn’t back down from a fight. She’s the Combat Champion for a reason.


Ada: The reason being that GRIME can’t go after the title or Omasa would be the Combat Champion already…

Chad: Yeah, well till then, Merlot is the champion and she;ll be waiting for her next opponent, rather it’s someone from SCU or GRIME or better yet Omasa Tazu. Merlot will be ready and will come out on top.

Ada: Merlot got lucky tonight. Piper wasn’t feeling good and under the weather she still came out to have a match. She’s a fighter unlike SCU.

Chad: Okay, you've been hanging around Gianni and Liam if you really believe that.



In the parking lot area, we see the smoke rising up from the grill.  Michi, Kaos, and Mrs Right are sitting by in chairs, talking amongst each other while Eyesnsane mans the grill.  Dax is pacing back and forth as he is looking at his phone intently.

Dax:  Where is he?  He said he would meet us here, and he’s nowhere to be found.

Eyesnsane:  Don’t worry about it.  Mickey won’t let this opportunity slip by him so easily.

Mrs Right:  If GRIME was going to do something, they would make sure the cameras were rolling to rub it in our faces.

Michi:  Not to be a bitch, but tonight is about Eyesnsane and his big win over Stewart Mason.

Eyes doesn’t fully acknowledge the comment, but he does give his shoulder a roll to push the belt up just a little bit higher.  Dax nods his head as he walks up and pats Eyes on his back.

Dax:  Yeah, you’re right.  We got a lot to celebrate tonight after going through some shit recently.  Stewart gave it all he had against you, but it just wasn’t enough.  We got our first piece of gold, and it’s riding on your back now.

Eyesnsane:  Nothing I ain’t prepared to deal with.  I’m already looking for my next challenge after Stewart gets his rematch.  I’m ready for it, and I’m looking at both brands.  Hell, I’m looking within OTE, right at the first ever Combat Champion.

Eyes looks over his shoulder right at Dax.  Dax grins and laughs.  He takes a step back as he sees Mickey walking up in his wrestling gear, holding a leather bound book in his hand.

Dax:  Mickey, where the fuck have you been, man?

Mickey holds up a finger as he finishes reading something in the book.  After a long pause, he closes the book and looks up at Dax.

Mickey:  Sorry, I just couldn’t put this thing down.  It’s one ‘elluva story.  Got some boring points, but did ya know that yer not sposed’ta eat shrimp, and ye got to let anyone come up to yer yard and take whatever they want, and that Judas sold out Jesus Feckin’ Christ ‘imself fer some gold coins, and hung ‘imself in a tree because ‘e couldn’t stand ‘is guilt? Like…

Mickey makes a head exploding gesture and sound with his hands at the sides of his head.  Dax just stares at Mickey while Eyesnsane just shakes his head and flips over a burger.

Eyesnsane:  You’re clowning a bit early there, Mick.

Mickey’s eyes light up and he glares over at Eyesnsane.  He takes two steps toward Eyes and points right at him.

Mickey:  Oi!  Just because we’re mates doesn’t mean I won’t boot ye in the gooleys for that one.  But, since we’re mates, ye get a free pass there.

Eyesnsane:  Any time you wanna go in that ring, I got nothing but respect for you.  I’ll take anyone on at any time.

Mickey:  Aye.  Just watch it next time.

Mickey picks up the book and puts it down on the grill next to the burgers as Eyes looks at Mickey with a smirk.

Mickey:  Ye know, fer a magical guy in the clouds who can’t do no wrong, there’s a lotta contradictions in that there book.  Ye can’t be gay because it’s a mortal sin.  No sin is better or worse than another, yet ye better not murder someone or enjoy the same sex, because ye got a one way ticket to ‘ell.  Women can’t speak out, and are always supposed to ‘ave their heads covered when in the presence of the lord.  Yet, ye got that insufferable Virginia Mae Putnam running ‘er mouth when she can be bothered to do so.  I just can’t get behind any of that, so why not use it as kindling for the grill?

Dax:  Dude, that’s blasphemy.  It might even be a little… over the edge… Huh?

Dax holds his arms out like he just made the best joke ever created.  He looks around to see the others nodding their heads, or just groaning.  Mickey gives his arm a rub and then pats his behind.

Mickey:  Good go of it.  A fer effort, mate.  But the truth is that I take exception to the messages of hate in that book.  I take exception to Gerald running around ‘ere with that Underground Championship like it validates anything ‘e’s preaching.  All of ‘is little followers spewing hate just makes me sick.  Gerald is as evil as they come, and giving ‘im that title is nothing more than excusing and giving ‘im a platform to spread that hate.  We’re focused on GRIME right now, but once we snuff them out, The Good Shepherds is on me list next.  I can’t stand a hypocrite, and Gerald is the prime example.  So tonight, I plan to go out there and take away ‘is platform and put ‘im back to where he belongs; feeding at the bottom of the pecking order.  Now, Eyes, I’m gonna need to borrow ya fer a second.

Mickey gives a silent nod as Eyes walks over, waving the smoke from the burning book out of his face.  He looks into the camera as Mickey continues to nod and encourage it.

Eyesnsane:  That’s it, that’s all…



Vs

Singles Match - Uncensored Television Championship
Hitamashii vs “Helluva Bottom” Carter

Darlyn: Ladies and gentlemen, your special guest commentator…

Jared James Nichols opening vocals on "Nails In The Coffin"  cuts through the silence, as a fog fills the SCU entrance. A light from below reveals the current G.R.I.M.E World Nightmare Champion, Max Burke and his associate "The Freight Train Of Pain" Casey Williams.

Darlyn:  On his way to the ring, your current G.R.I.M.E World Nightmare Champion, Max Burke!!!

As the music intensifies, “The Destroyer” reaches the edge of the squared circle. He turns on his heel, and makes his way to the ring steps. Once on the ringside apron, Burke glides his finger over the top rope as he walks to the center. He turns, his head bowed. Spotlights hit him from all directions as his music reaches a crescendo. Max swiftly removes his Abaddon mask and cackles into the camera, lifting his championship above his head. He hands off his title to Casey as he makes his way to the commentary desk.

Gena: Mr. Burke, welcome to the desk.

Chad: Max, this is a surprise.

Max:  Oh, it shouldn’t be. We are far from finished here. Hitamashii, and his little crew need to realize that my World Nightmare Championship is not going anywhere. He needs to be focused on his challenge here tonight.

The opening riffs of Fire In Our House by Astral Doors hits the speakers.

Max:  Oh, here we go.

Darlyn: From Hijemi, Japan, standing at 5’8” and weighing in at 192lb, he is… Hitamashii!!!

Kingingiseisha “Hitamashii” Shirasu comes out to the stage, looking smug, and stands there as the crowd gives him boos. Hitamashii walks from one side of the stage to the other with a swag in his step before he looks around the crowd, and starts to walk towards the ring slowly, stopping halfway down the ramp and turning his head with his nose in the air to look at the crowd, their faces showing that they do not like the way he is looking down upon them. Hitamashii lowers his head slowly and turns back to face the ring, walking down towards the apron. Hitamashii 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.

Darlyn: And now, introducing the current reigning, and defending SCU Uncensored Television Champion…

Glee Cast Version of “I Know What Boys Like” begins to play and Carter steps through the curtains, holding an ankle length, sleeveless black robe closed in front of him. He then whips it open, revealing his ring attire of a printed belly t, booty shorts and thigh high boots. The spotlights bounce off his championship. He holds one hand behind his head while running the other hand down his body while grinding his hips to the music.

Darlyn: From Seattle, Washington, weighing 176 pounds, he is the "Hardcore Bottom" -- Helluva Bottom Carter!

Carter drops the robe to the stage and runs toward the ring, slapping hands offered out to him all around the ringside area. He then hops up onto the ring apron in a split and slides beneath the bottom rope. He crawls seductively on all fours until he arrives in his corner. He pulls himself up and then lays across the top corner, awaiting the start of the match.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Gena: You go Carter! Frankensteiner outta nowhere to kick things off! G.R.I.M.E. won’t love that! Followed up with a senton right to the bread basket of his challenger.

Max:  C’mon kid! Get your shit together. Carter’s comin’ out firing here early on. He’s got H on the ropes.

Chad: Get him Carter! Boots to his challenger! Dig 'em in! Carter drops an elbow!

One!
Two!
Kickout!

Gena: Hitamashii just gets his shoulder up.

Max:  Whoa. I’m going to cut you off. Chad... Little bias eh? How about you call this a bit more down the middle. What do you say champ?

Chad: Bias? Are you serious... champ? Slingshot legdrop from the champ!

One!
Two!

Gena: Challenger with great ring awareness. Gets his foot on the bottom rope. And boys.... place nice.

Max:  As much as I despise that kid, you’re going to give him his due. Just because we are G.R.I.M.E. doesn’t mean he doesn’t get his respect. Gena, I always play nice. Just ask Andrew.

Gena: Speaking of Andrew, why is this still going on? Didn’t this finish at Violent Conduct?

Max:  Let’s focus on the match, and the champion in the ring. Carter has been on fire since his big win. I’ve been really impressed. You can see how intelligent Carter truly is victory after victory. He finds the way to win, and keep his championship night after night. Wait... I may stand corrected. I still don’t know why he does this?

Chad: Champ getting his twerk on. Fairy Tail!

One!
Two!

Max:  Kickout with authority by the challenger! Get on him kid! There ya go!

Chad: Flurry of strikes coming from Hitamashii! Concrete Heart!

One!
Two!
Kickout!

Max:  H just kicks JESU!!!!

Gena: Dying Breed with steel chairs to the skulls of Max and Casey! These two have had enough of the constant interference! Carter’s going up top!

Chad: Dying Breed are beating the ever loving shit out of Max and Casey with those chairs! Carter needs to focus on the action in the ring! He needs to pay attention to his challenger!

Gena: Fruit Fly!! Knockout counter by Hitamashii! The challenger cleaned the clock of the champion with that roll of nickels. Look at you! Pin him you fool!

ONE!

TWO!

Chad: NO! Carter rolls his shoulder at the last moment. But, Hitamashii isn’t wasting time. I know what’s comin’!

Gena: Farore's Wind! That’s it!

Chad: This one is over! Roll of nickels and that knee strike. It’s academic.

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

Darlyn: Your winner and NEW SCU UNCENSORED TV CHAMPION... HITAMASHII!!

Gena: Rule #1 in wrasslin’... never take your eyes off your opponent. Carter unfortunately did that just for a moment... and that moment was all his challenger needed to turn the match around become champion. Hitamashii, and The Dying Breed with the last laugh here tonight.

Hitamashii with his newly won championship, and The Dying Breed with their dented steel chairs pose in the center of the ring.




We come in to see a very angry Gerald Shepherd walking through the hallways.  He is literally shaking in anger as he wears a robe over his wrestling gear, with the Underground Championship around his waist.  Mavis walks behind Gerald, humming a soft tune to try to calm him down.

Gerald:  Mother!  Please let me channel my thoughts!

Mavis:  Pardon my speaking, Father, but you aren’t channeling.  You’re becoming distracted, which is exactly what the heathen wanted with his demented, unspeakable act.

Gerald turns around to look at his wife and he wants to shout.  He grabs onto her shoulders and looks down into her eyes.

Gerald:  Burning the Good Book is not something I can just look past.  I just can’t stand by and allow that to happen without beating the unholy hell outta him.

Before he can continue, there is a rather sexual sounding moan heard from out of the corner.  Mavis scoffs and glares behind Gerald, making him turn around to see the source of this.

Celeste:  Sounds kinky, Daddy Gerald.

Jenifer puts her fingers in her mouth, popping them out with a loud sound.  Gerald’s eyebrows somehow furl even more.  He shakes his head and points in the other direction.

Gerald:  I ain’t got the time for your nonsense, ladies.  Please let me be so that I can prepare myself mentally to go out to that ring and not commit murder!

Celeste:  Oh, no.  I agree.  Burning sacred texts is fucked up, no matter the contents.  It’s extreme.  But, do you really think that you stand a chance against Mickey?  He’s like half your age.

Jenifer: Il est plus athlétique que toi. (He’s more athletic than you.)

Celeste:  Oh, and he’s held like soooooo many titles, and you’ve only held one.

Jenifer:  Mickey est impitoyable et a passé du temps en prison. (Mickey is more ruthless and spent time in prison.) En d'autres termes (in other words) Mickey gonna killlllllllllll youuuuuuuuuuu…

Jenifer laughs and her and Celeste high five.  Mavis steps up to them and reaches back to slap Jenifer across the face, but Celeste steps in front and grabs Mavis by the shirt.

Celeste:  Unless you want your ass kicked worse than Halo did earlier tonight, I would step the fuck back, Mother…

Gerald:  You two seem to forget something.  I got one title more than this one has ever had…

Gerald points to Jenifer as Mavis snubs her nose at Jenifer as well.

Gerald:  And I got one more title than you got Ms. North.  And if my senior memory serves me right, and thanks to St John’s Wort, by golly I think it does, having this title around my waist?

Gerald flicks at the gold plate of the belt he’s wearing over the robe.  He looks right at Celeste, smiling wickedly at the sour look forming on her face.

Gerald:  Gives me a certain clout around here.  Your words, Celeste.  It allows me to be a bit of a shot caller around here.  So why don’t you move along, former champ, and let me prepare for my title defense.

Celeste nods her head and clasps her fingers together.

Celeste:  Yeah… or, we could not do that and stay here because this is kinda fun.

Jenifer:  Oui.

Gerald chuckles, but it is clear he doesn’t find it very funny.  Instead he takes a couple steps closer.

Gerald:  Let’s see if I can’t flex that clout of mine, hm?  I’m sure Jenifer is itching for a fight, because she seems to be one of the few who likes to go around and stir up the pot. She’s still undefeated, if my memory serves, right?  At least one of you is.

Jenifer:  As you say, it’s fair.

Celeste:  Fuck you both…

Jenifer snickers as Gerald doesn’t allow this to go any further.

Gerald:  I’ve received a new pledge to my church, and I know they would love to get their hands on you.  So why don’t you, Jenifer, get ready for your first loss, and to a member of the Church of the Good Shepherds.

Jenifer: Je vais affronter n'importe qui. Andrew Borg en jupe, peut-être? (I will take on anyone.  Andrew Borg in a skirt, perhaps?)

Celeste gives her a high five.

Gerald:  Hold your witchy tongue, Ms. LaCroix. Don’t go casting no devil spells upon me!  Our newest pledge to the church is none other than…

The camera turns slightly to see, dressed in a black sunday dress, and a fashionable head covering, with black gloves to match…

Delia:  Moi! Merci beaucoup, Father, darling…

Delia walks to Mavis and gives a kiss to the air on each side of her face.  She then does the same with Gerald.  She steps to Celeste, ready to do the same, but then she instead holds her nose and takes a step back.

Delia:  Ew… No s’ank you… I barely even want to lay hands on Jenifer, but I will, because I love streaks. I used to have one of my own in SCW.

Jenifer: Nous nous souvenons tous. De retour en 2014. Mais ce n'est plus cette année-là, mais plutôt 2020, salope. (We all remember. Back in 2014.  But it is no longer that year, but instead it is 2020, bitch.)

Delia chortles.

Delia:  As God is my witness, z’ere are only two bitches here, and it is clear to everyone who z’e scraggly little curs are…

Jenifer lunges at Delia, but Gerald holds her back, and Delia steps back, looking stunned, but at the same time, a bitchy smirk on her face.

Delia:  Ooooh, somebody has a temper… Come on, Father, vous has a match to prepare for in peace… I’ll see you at High Stakes, Jenny darling…

Delia blows a kiss back at Jenifer over her shoulder as she urges Gerald away from Le Coven.



Vs

Singles Match - SCU Underground Championship
Mickey Carroll Vs Father Gerald Shepherd

Darlyn:  The following Main Event contest is scheduled for one fall and is for the SCU Underground Championship!

The opening of "Amazing Grace" by Dropkick Murphys plays as Mickey pushes through the curtains. He pulls the cigarette out of his mouth and drops it on the ground, quickly putting it out as he marches back and forth across the stage.

Darlyn: Coming to the ring, from London, England, standing at 5'11" and weighing in at 190lb, he is "Sin City's Resident Shithead"... Mickey Carrrrrrrrrrrrolllllllllllll!!!

He looks from side to side, nodding his head at the cheers before pointing out into the audience, starting an powerful "Oi! Oi! Oi!" chant that really gets the crowd pumped. He dashes straight down the ramp where he leaps up and onto the ring apron. He paces back and forth, stomping along to the beat of the music before climbing inside. He looks up at the ceiling and then signals the trinity, kissing his fingers and then pointing up as he waits for his opponent.

A white light flashes over the crowd that is almost blinding.  It returns to a more tolerable brightness as "Spirit In the Sky" by Norman Greenbaum begins to play through the arena.  The crowd boos and gets louder when the announcer speaks up.

Darlyn: On his way to the ring from Tulsa, Oklahoma he is 6'6" and weighed in this morning at 275lb. Representing The Church of The Good Shepherds he is your Underground Champion... Father Gerald Shepherd!

And the boos become louder.  Gerald runs out onto the stage, throwing his hands in the air, looking up.  He nods his head and smiles when he goes back and forth across the stage.  He holds His Holy Word in his hand as he shouts out a verse.  He walks down the ramp as he continues to read. He sits it on the ring steps and runs up them.  He walks across the apron as he seeks His praise. He gets inside of the ring and slowly spins around before settling in a corner and waits for the match to start.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Gena: Gerald and Mickey get to the center of the ring. They lock up in the middle of the ring.

Chad: Both men try to gain the advantage on the other but with no luck as they both sit at a standstill.

Gena: Gerald tries to knee Mickey in the stomach but Mickey blocks raising his knee up as well.

Chad: Mickey let's go and tries a European uppercut but Gerald backs out the way then grabs Mickey and swings his neck around for a spinning neckbreaker.

Gena: Gerald gets up and goes to grab Mickey but Mickey kicks the top of Gerald’s head as he bends down.

Chad: Mickey gets up, as Gerald stumbles back a step. Mickey grabs Gerald and throws him to the ground with an armdrag. Gerald gets up but Mickey quickly grabs him for another armdrag.

Gena: Gerald does a back roll to create distance before getting to his feet. Mickey comes in, Gerald goes to kiick Mickey but Mickey blocks it by grabbing Gerald’s leg… Dragon Screw!

Chad: Mickey gets up and picks Gerald up, Mickey gets behind Gerald… Gerald puts his arms over his right shoulder and grabs Mickey’s head, tossing him over with a Snapmare then kicks Mickey from behind with a soccer kick!

Gena: Gerald picks Mickey up only to drop him with a scoop slam. Gerald hits an elbow drop on Mickey then runs, hops on the top turnbuckle. Gerald jumps off!!!

Chad: Flying Double Leg Stomp by Gerald but misses as Mickey rolls out the way!

Gena: Mickey gets to his feet as Gerald times it out and Spears Mickey back to the ground. Gerald gets to his feet then grabs Mickey and with his power lifts Mickey up for a pendulum backbreaker… Mickey rapidly strikes Gerald with punches, Gerald drops Mickey, Mickey grabs Gerald's foot but Gerald kicks away.

Chad: Mickey gets to his feet. Gerald rushes Mickey but Mickey leaps forwards and hits Gerald with a Lariat. Gerald gets right back up. Mickey kicks him in the gut then gets behind Gerald. Mickey picks him up and drops him with a Back body Drop!

Gena: Mickey runs to the ropes and jumps off hitting a middle rope Moonsault!

Chad: Mickey goes for the cover but Gerald gets up before the ref can get down to start the count…

Gena: The crowd gets to there feet… Mickey goes for a Backhand chop! Mickey goes for another but Gerald blocks it!

Chad: He then hits Mickey with two quick Stiff martial arts kicks! Mickey goes to block a third but instead Gerald grabs Mickey’s head and drops him with a Snap DDT!!!

Gena: Gerald goes for the cover!

One…
Two…

Gena: Mickey kicks out at two! Gerald gets up and picks Mickey up, Gerald tries a Suplex but it gets blocked by Mickey. Gerald tries again but again it gets blocked. Mickey pulls away from Gerald.

Chad: Gerald tries to grab Mickey again but Mickey comes in and Headbutts Gerald. Gerald stumbles back a bit. Mickey quickly rushes in and grabs Gerald… Belly to Belly Suplex by Mickey! Mickey runs to the ropes and jumps off for another Moonsault on Gerald. Mickey goes for the cover.

One…

Gena: Gerald picks Mickey up and Irish Whips him to the turnbuckle, Gerald runs at Mickey… Looks like Gerald is going for his Ray of Light (Diamond Cutter)!

Chad: Mickey pushes away, Gerald face hits the turnbuckle! Mickey gets behind Gerald and hits a Belly to Back Suplex!

Gena: Mickey quickly grabs Gerald’s legs and locks in his Four Leaf Clover! (Inverted Cloverleaf)! Mickey pulls Gerald to the middle of the ring!

Chad: Gerald uses his upper body strength to crawl to the ropes but can only move about a foot close… Gerald shakes his head as the referee ask Gerald if he gives!

Gena: Gerald keeps shaking his head no as he inches closer to the ropes. Gerald is just inches from grabbing the ropes!!!

Chad: Gerald gives himself a good push towards the ropes… and he gets hold of them for the break! Gerald grabs onto them, and Mickey shouts out in anger.  He slaps the mat.  As he goes to pick Gerald up…

Gena:  Gerald trips him up into the corner.  He then hits a Running Big Boot that takes off Mickey’s head practically!  He then hits the Ray of Light on Mickey, rolling him over for the cover!

One!
Two!
Three!

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Darlyn:  Here is your winner and STILL SCU Underground Champion… Father Gerald Shepherd!!!

Gerald accepts the belt on his knees.  He raises it up, almost as emotional as he was when he won the belt to begin with.  He holds it up in His glory, and then slowly rises to his feet to celebrate.  He then picks Mickey up and throws him outside of the ring and throws a copy of the Good Book next to Mickey.  He looks to the camera and leans in to speak as we go off the air.

Gerald:  Praise be to God!  But next time?  Give me a real challenge…

However, just before we fade totally out, we see Mickey Carroll rush Gerald from the side and down to the mat as a brawl ensues...



Tune in next week as SCU/GRIME Underground Ep. 75 comes at you, recorded LIVE  on Sunday, October 25th, 2020 at 11:59pm PST![/color
