The show opens up inside of the crowded stands of Reno, Nevada's Reno-Sparks Livestock Events Center with the fans standing and cheering, waving for the attention of the camera. They hold up their signs that show their support for their favorite SCW superstars and the chant is heard throughout the building;

Crowd: SCW! SCW! SCW!

The holiday mood is in full swing as Christmas trees stand tall in several corners of the building and one giant one stands beside the ring itself. Garland is strung around the ring ropes in all colors and lights twine around the ring posts. The staff themselves are even taken with the holiday mood as both Belinda Simone and Jason Adams are clad in red with the much required Santa hats adorning their scalps.

Ring announcer Justin Decent stands in the ring, bare chested and dressed in a pair of lycra red booty shorts trimmed in white fur and black boots, along with the Santa hat on his head. He waves to the cheering crowd and brings the microphone up to address the crowd.

Justin: Hello everybody and welcome to the Reno-Sparks Livestock Events Center, right here in Reno, Nevada!

The crowd on hand cheers with hearty enthusiasm at the mere mention of their hometown.

Justin: And more importantly, welcome to the special Christmas edition of Climax Control!

The fans cheer with excitement.

Justin: Now without further ado, may I present to you our holiday hostess, Miss Amanda Hugginkiss!

The fans cheer and applaud as the music starts and Amanda sashays out onto the stage, dressed in a classic Mrs. Clause costume, complete with white curly wig and horn rimmed glasses. She waves at the crowd and the performance begins.

Amanda: "Santa Baby, slip a sable under the tree, For me.
Been an awful good girl, Santa baby,
So hurry down the chimney tonight.

Santa baby, a 54 convertible too,
Light blue.
I'll wait up for you dear,
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight.

Think of all the fun I've missed,
Think of all the fellas that I haven't kissed,
Next year I could be just as good,
If you'll check off my Christmas list,

Santa baby, I wanna yacht,
And really that's not a lot,
Been an angel all year,
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight.

Santa honey, there's one thing I really do need,
The deed
To a platinum mine,
Santa honey, so hurry down the chimney tonight.

Santa cutie, and fill my stocking with a duplex,
And checks.
Sign your 'X' on the line,
Santa cutie, and hurry down the chimney tonight.

Come and trim my Christmas tree,
With some decorations bought at Tiffany's,
I really do believe in you,
Let's see if you believe in me,

Santa baby, forgot to mention one little thing,
A ring.
I don't mean on the phone,
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight,
Hurry down the chimney tonight,
Hurry, tonight."

The fans applaud and Amanda prances around the stage, waving and blowing kisses before vanishing into the back.

Adams: She won't get any luck with Santa tonight!

Simone: And why is that?

Adams: I hear he comes only once a year.

Simone: Sorry I asked. Anyway, tonight we bring to you the final show of Sin City Wrestling for 2018 before we return to Las Vegas on January 13 for Inception III!

Adams: And tonight is the Christmas show! Every match will have a special Christmas themed stip from the Roulette wheel!

Simone: And it all starts off with one of the biggest debuts -- literally -- in a long time as the sometimes not-so-gentle giant, Slappy McGoo debuts with a tough test ahead of him in the form of Joshua Acquin!

Adams: Jessie Salco pulled a fast one on Christian with that Rudolph nose guard and the boss wasn't amused! He booked Jessie against Pandora Barrett as 'punishment' this week!

Simone: The final match in the Mixed Tag Series comes to play when Gamers Inc. take on the makeshift team of Amy Santino and Jon Dough! The winners move on to Inception III in a play off match against the Jordans to see who faces the champions, Lachlan Kane and Sierra Williams!

Adams: Triple threat matches are popular again! We have three young fellas, each wanting to move further up the singles ranks! One-half of the Mixed tag Champs, Lachlan Kane! St. John Cross! And Travis Levitt!

Simone: The war between Crystal Zdunich and Cat Riley comes to a head at Inception III, but tonight we get a sneak preview when Cat teams with the reigning Roulette Champion Sam Marlowe to take on Crystal and her good friend and SCW newcomer, Mercedes Lewis in Bombshell tag team action!

Adams: And we close 2018 out with a match for the World Championship!

Simone: It was the match that Main Evented High Stakes VIII and brought the house down! Fenris defends the championship against by his own admission, his toughest opponent to date in Senor Vinnie! The winner moves on to face Jake Raab in the title versus title Unification match at Inception III!

Adams: Who can wait!? Woot woot!




A table and chairs are set up in the ring as GM Brooke Saxon has a mic with a smirk on her face.

Brooke Saxon: Ladies and Gentlemen, we are only a few short weeks away from Inception three and the night of champions. And at that event, we will have the SCW World Bombshell Champion Danielle Weston taking on Honor Wrestling Champion Alicia Lukas...

The crowd cheers hearing Dani's name but they turn right to boo's with Alicia's.

Brooke Saxon: But in front of me I have the contract for the event, and I would like to ask both women to come out here now and make it official for all of you great fans!...

What makes your beautiful, by One Direction slams over the personal address system and without any delay, the black curtains part and out runs Dani Weston. She makes her way to the centre of the stage to wave towards the fans, before she starts to walk down the runway. Stopping to high five the fans along the way.

Adams: There's our champion, the champion of OUR brand, she has been a great champ for us but at Inception, she faces what could be her toughest opponent to date...

Simone: She looks confident despite Jesse and Alicia attacking her last week...

She continues to smile out to the fans, before she makes her way over towards the ring. Sliding into it under the bottom rope, she leaps up to her feet to wave out to the people before her theme song slowly dies off the speaker system.

Brooke Saxon: And her opponent....

"Wild Eyes" By Parkway drive hits as Alicia steps out with a black hoodie over her upper half with the hood up over her long blond hair. She makes her way down to the ring and runs up the steps before climbing the ropes on the outside, she flips the hood back before putting her arms out, she smiles at the crowd before leaping into the ring from the outside. She lifts the Honor Wrestling Championship in the air as the song fades.

Simone: I've never seen a woman this arrogant...and considering we've had Crystal and Mercedes in SCW for years...that's saying something...

Brooke Saxon: Ladies, thank you for joining me, now in front of you both is the contract for your championship unification match at Ince-

Alicia snatches the mic from Brooke and shakes her head. The crowd boo's causing Alicia to just smile and raise the Honor title again.

Alicia Lukas: You hear that Brooke?. You hear what your father did with this merger?. No one in SCW respects us. They care about entitled weaklings like her....

Alicia points at Dani with a twisted smirk on her lips.

Alicia Lukas: I have been one of the most dominant women in the professional wrestling world. I cleared out entire divisions in WWH and Honor, and now?. Well, now I'm going to do it here. But SCW kept putting me in multi-person matches hoping and praying that somehow I'd get beaten. It didn't work in the fourway did it?. In singles matches against Parand and Vargas, I just dominated like I always do. But then, there was the tag team match. I was forced to team with Jesse who, god bless her little heart...she tried. But in the end, she got pinned....I didn't get pinned SHE did....

The crowd again boos and Alicia just shrugs it off.

Alicia Lukas: Look at me Dani, this isn't a match where you have a partner, this isn't a match where you have others in the ring you can hope to pin. This is one on one. This is you against me. You've had a lovely little fairytale run here, winning that championship and yeah, you EARNED it. But this fairytale doesn't have a happy ending. This isn't a match where you can be the plucky underdog and come out on top to give these cretins a cheap feel-good moment. You will be stepping in the ring with one of the best wrestlers alive today.

Alicia lowers the microphone and grabs the pen signing the bottom of the contract sliding it over to Dani along with a second microphone. Dani takes her time as she looks at the document that has been signed in front of her. Scooping up the microphone, it doesn't take the World Bombshell Champion long to speak her mind.

Dani: Blah, Blah, Blah...

The camera panned in on Danielle's bruised face as she was still wearing the ear paint of last week's attack. Dani's voice wasn't the soft tone it normally was as she raised her voice a little when she spoke in Alicia's manner.

Dani: I get it, I mean we all get it... you're the baddest champion on the planet. Blah! You've been a champion in some form for over six hundred days. Blah! You're one of the BEST wrestlers alive today. Blah, blah, blah...

Dani looked over to see that Alicia was rolling her eyes towards her, while the SCW fans were going wild for her.

Dani: Girl, every week you come out here and say the same damn things, it's like clockwork. You walk into the arena, you punch in and you do the same labor intensive unimaginative crap week in and week out and then you punch out, you go home and you sit on Twitter ringing your own bell, tooting your own horn, waiting just waiting for someone to spit out your name so you can jump down their throats to remind them... that you're the best, six hundred days, how you're the most dominant force in women's wrestling today. Wash. Rinse. Repeat.

It was Dani's time to roll her eyes as she looked towards the woman she would be facing at Inception. Alicia raised her microphone up to her lips to speak but Dani cut her off before she could make a sound.

Dani: Just shut your damn mouth.

Those words caused the SCW audience to POP, as they supported their Bombshell Champion.

Dani: Do you honestly think for a single second, that I don't know who you are or what you have done? Huh?! Do you honestly think that I don't know what I'm staring down at Inception? I know exactly who you are... you're just another girl, that's trying to intimidate me, trying to over shadow me and get inside my head but what you need to realise is that people have tried to do that since I first stepped foot inside Sin City Wrestling and what do you know? It hasn't... worked and Alicia I've got the Championship to prove it. I'm the World Bombshell Champion for a reason, because I didn't let trolls like you get inside my head. I didn't let power hungry girls like you push me down. Even after my hideous start in my career I stood back up each time I was pushed down and cast to the side and I clawed my way up the ranks so I could stand here today with my World Bombshell Championship.

Dani steps up towards Alicia not holding back, before she talks once more she adjusts her Championship that's draped over her right shoulder.

Dani: So tell me again why I should fear you? Tell me again.. why I should treat you any differently. Sure you might have ganged up on me last week with Salco, sure you might have thought that was a perfect way to get inside my head but trust me, all you managed to do was ruffle some feathers... bruised my face, left me a little sore around the edges. I've had worse and all your little beat down did was make me want to destroy your precious little throne at you sit upon and at Inception, I'll take away what you love the most.

Dani looked down at the contract and she quickly picked up the pen that was on offer. Scrawling her name across the dotted line as she looked up at Alicia before she tossed the pen down on the freshly signed contract. Alicia just smirks and she looks over at Brooke who nods.

Dani: Your title will become my title and all those bragging rings you hold so close to your chest, will be worthless after in beat your ass in the middle of this ring, at Inception.

A cold hard stare crossed Dani's face, but still, she was smiling as she looked into Alicia's eyes. The SCW fans had started a Dani chant as the two came together in the centre of the ring. The only thing keeping them apart was the table between them.

Brooke Saxon: Ladies and Gentlemen, at Inception we will have an undisputed champion...but who will it be?...Dani Weston?..or Alicia Lukas?

The crowd cheers as both women stand on either side of Brooke holding their titles, Dani smiles at the fans and Alicia drops her title and lunges at Dani going for a clothesline, Dani ducks under it and hits a dropkick sending Alicia down. Dani slides behind Alicia and goes to hit the Westoned, Alicia though rolls forward out of it and out of the ring sliding back in to grab the title. Dani calls for Alicia to get back in the ring exciting the fans, Alicia just backs her way towards the entrance with a shake of the head.




The camera switches backstage where we see Joshua Acquin and Slappy McGoo standing next to the roulette wheel to decide the Christmas theme for the opening match.

Ms. Rocky Mountains: Ladies and gentlemen, I'm here with Joshua Acquin and the debuting Slappy McGoo. Gentlemen, let's see what kind of match you will be competing in tonight.

Ms. Rocky Mountains spins the wheel and the three sets of eyes watch the needle tick. The wheel stops spinning.

Ms. Rocky Mountains: Tonight's opening contest will be a Santa's little helper match. We'll be back right after the break to give our competitors a chance to prepare.

The camera switches to a commerical break.




Justin: This match is scheduled for one fall and is a Santa's Little Helpers match... introducing first... hailing from Las Vegas, NV... Joshua Acquin...

Jekyll and Hyde Hits the PA as Joshua walks out from the back with boos from the crowd. As he walks slowly to the ring he avoids all contact from fans. Once in the ring he goes up to the middle rope of the turnbuckle, drawing boos from the crowd as he holds up his arms.

Justin: And his opponent...hailing from Kickapoo, Missouri... Slappy McGoo...

The lights kick out in the arena as a synthesizer blasts...

"YOU GOT THE TOUCH!
YOU GOT THE POWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER!!!!"

Laser lights start flying around the arena as a mountain of a man gets pushed out onto the stage by a much smaller man. Levi Russow tries to goad Slappy McGoo to have fun with it and interact with the fans as Slappy sheepishly walks towards the ring kinda shyly waving at everybody and lightly letting kids slap him a high five as he walks up the steps, steps over the ropes, goes to his corner, kneels down and starts praying.

Jacob Summers moves in and checks both men for weapons while having a silent chuckle at how both men look stupid before indicating for the bell to be rung...

DING DING DING!

As soon as the bell rings both men adjust their elves costumes before moving around the ring waiting for each other to make the first move, but it never happens. They both then move in and lock up as the bells on their costumes tinkle away, as they jockey for a position but Mcgoo uses his height and weight advantage and pushes Acquin into the corner. McGoo looks at Acquin and move in but Acquin takes a rope break as the ref asks McGoo to take step back, which he does takes a few steps back.

Simone: These guys look absolutely ridiculous.

Adams: Especially McGoo... they couldn't find any big elf costumes and to his top is riding up his stomach.

Acquin moves out from the corner, as both men once more circle the ring a couple of time before slowly inching toward each other, as they go to lock up but Acquin ducks and moves past McGoo before turning and kicks McGoo in the leg before punching and then chopping McGoo but McGoo doesn't seem too fazed by it as Acquin repeats the punch and the chop across the chest before grabbing McGoo's hand and tries to whip him into the ropes but McGoo doesn't allow it to happen and stands his ground. Acquin tries again but again McGoo blocks it and McGoo then whips Acquin into the ropes, who rebounds back but ducks the first swing from McGoo as Acquin bounces off the ropes again and again ducking another wild swing from McGoo and as he comes back from the rebound, Acquin attempts a crossbody but McGoo stands his ground and Acquin hits McGoo and then the ground.

Adams: It appears Acquin has the upper hand in this match, but it isn't the case, Acquin gets in a few hits against McGoo but McGoo may be slow but he has the power and as soon as Acquin tries to knock McGoo off his feet... Acquin hits nothing but a brick wall.

Acquin rolls away and gets to a knee, as McGoo puts his hands up and back away a little, as Acquin glares at him before making his way to his feet, where he slowly approaches McGoo before raising his hand up to offer a test of strength, which McGoo looks at his hand and slowly raises it up but Acquin jabs McGoo in the throat.

Simone: Wow... that was a little uncalled for from Acquin.

Adams: McGoo was gullible enough to fall for the test of strength thing.

Acquin then tries to pick McGoo up but with little success and instead McGoo grabs Acquin and picks him up before dropping him down on his back. Acquin grimaces in pain a little but makes his way to his feet. As he continues to glare at McGoo as they move in once more, where they look to lock up but don't as Acquin ducks away from McGoo's grasp, Acquin punches and chops at McGoo a few times before turning and bouncing off the ropes, however, McGoo gets his big boot up and stops Acquin dead.

Adams: McGoo needs to step up and finish Acquin.

Simone: thing is McGoo needs to snap and then he will dominate this match. At the moment he is going too easy on Acquin and Acquin is getting away with it.

McGoo looks down at Acquin and pulls him up to his feet, where he whips into to the corner and goes to follow up with a splash in the corner but Acquin spots this and drops down and rolls out of the ring and McGoo stops just before making a collision with the turnbuckle.

Simone: Luck escape for Acquin for now. I would have thought that boot would slow him down.

McGoo looks down at Acquin and climbs out of the ring via the top rope, where he jumps down off the apron, where he approaches the recovering Acquin. Grabbing Acquin he pulls him to his feet, where he goes to roll Acquin back into the ring but Acquin throws a couple of elbows into McGoo's face before grabbing McGoo by hair and drives his face into the apron.

Meanwhile the ref inside the ring who had tried to bring both men back into the ring has given up and has reached a five count.

Adams: Neither man has noticed the count, as McGoo tries to get Acquin back in the ring but Acquin has other ideas.

Acquin grabs McGoo again and tries to drive his face into the apron again but this time McGoo blocks it and lets out a guttural roar and grabs Acquin and hits several headbutts, which staggers Acquin back and McGoo grabs at his top and rips it off before turning and grabbing Acquin and throws him into the ring.

Simone: McGoo has snapped by the sounds of it, which could spell the end of Acquin.

Adams: I hope the bosses didn't pay too much for the outfits or have to return them... McGoo just ripped his top off and in half.

Simone: He is still wearing those small cropped green and brown trousers and elves boots... he still looks ridiculous.

McGoo climbs back into the ring and goes to pin Acquin...

ONE!

TWO!

Kickout!

Acquin kicks out, as McGoo shakes his head before moving to his feet, where he pulls Acquin up to his feet but Acquin somehow surprises McGoo with a kick to the stomach and then a DDT before going for a pin...

Adams: First pin of the match and Acquin kicks out, however, things quickly shift and Acquin catches McGoo with a surprise DDT and a pin of his own.

ONE!

TWO!

Kickout!

McGoo kicks out following the DDT, as Acquin climbs to his feet and begins to stomp on McGoo although a little unbalanced as McGoo tries to cover up the best he can. Acquin stops as grabs McGoo and pulls him to his feet, where he begins to set up and tries for the Nightmare 2 (Full Nelson Facebuster), however, McGoo blocks it as he breaks Acquin's hold and then fires his elbow backward, which connects to Acquin head before doing it again, which forces Acquin backward. McGoo then turns and grabs Acquin's hand and delivers a short arm clothesline sending Acquin down to the mat.

Simone: Acquin surprises McGoo with a DDT but McGoo kicks out with ease... but Acquin isn't done and he begin to stomp on McGoo, which the bells on the boots jingle away with everyone stomp. Acquin tries to follow up with the Nightmare 2 but McGoo blocks it and gives Acquin a short-arm clothesline for his troubles.

Adams: This match has been really a see saw match... you would have thought that McGoo would have dominated a little more.

McGoo grabs Acquin and pulls him to his feet before hoisting him up onto his shoulder, where he then hits the Fatal Fury (Fireman's Carry Jackhammer) and then goes for a pin...

Adams: Fatal Fury... Acquin is done.

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

Simone: McGoo wins.

DING DING DING!

Justin: Winner of this match via pin fall.... Slappy McGoo.

McGoo's music hits over the p.a, as he climbs to his feet and celebrates a successful match against Acquin.




The pounding, heavy riff of "No Friends" by Bleeding Through begins to blare through the speakers and ten seconds into the song "The Heavy Metal Angel" Jessie Salco comes out from the back headbanging to the song as she does.

Simone: Last week we saw Jessie give Christian a gag Christmas gift in the form of a Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer style nose guard, now that she's learned that he sold it for a coffee at Starbucks she's threatened something in retaliation.

Adams: Is it really wise to aggravate Christian after everything that's happened this past few weeks?!

Jessie throws up the metal horns before making her way down to the ring, she slides into the ring and reacts to the chorus of boos with two middle fingers high in the air as she waits for the music to die down before she grabs the mic from Justin.

Jessie: Last week, I got Christian a thoughtful Christmas gift, I had to have it custom made and everything! And what does he do? He sells it for a coffee.

Jessie states whilst ignoring the boos.

Jessie: And not even good quality coffee either, he got a one dollar coffee from Starbucks for fuck's sake! That's why I'm out here today, Christian if you thought the mockery you received last week was bad, well, have a look.

The titantron shows a video that starts with Christian getting punched and shows him getting his ass kicked over and over with his face badly photoshopped onto the bodies of weak video game characters such as Jenkins from Mass Effect, Glass Joe from Punch Out, a Gumba from Super Mario Bros. and at one point even has him on the head of Justin Bieber as he's gunned own on CSI, all set to dramatic classical music, the video ends on a mock tombstone with the words "RIP Christian's Glass Nose" on it before cutting back to Jessie with a big grin on her face.

Jessie: If you thought your mockery was bad before, well now that I know that your idea of punishment is to give me an easy opponent it's only going to get worse! As for Pandora, enjoy your first loss in SCW!

No Friends starts up again and Jessie heads to the back.




We go backstage to see Brooke Saxon dressed up in a red dress with black heels, her hair hidden underneath a Santa hat. She smiles at the camera as we can see she is enjoying her night.

Brooke: As GM of SCW I would like to say on behalf of everyone here. We wish you all a safe holiday, rather you celebrate it or not. We want you all to stay safe and enjoy your time with your family.

This has been an interesting year to say the least. Honor Wrestling and SCW have provided you all with nothing but the best action possible. Then when you thought it couldn't get better it did. Honor and SCW became one company. Dream matches becoming reality.

We look forward until closing 2018 with a bang as Senor Vinnie and Fenris will have the Honor to wrap up SCW 2018 with the SCW World title on the line. Just think, next time we all see each other won't just be 2019, it will be Inception III. All titles on the line, who will go on to merged the Honor and SCW Titles? Will the Legacy Champions be able to prepare for a Roulette rules match. Mix Tag Teams come and stepped up. Team Eggplant will be waiting for them.

In a nutshell, SCW reopened its doors, Honor shut there's to merge with SCW, dream matches being booked. Only to start the new year with a bang. 2018 was a great year but I promise you that 2019 will be even bigger.

Jon Dough appears from out of nowhere.

Jon Dough: Plus, lets not forget the Blast From The Past. The list can go on and on. But no need to bore you all with that. Let's get back to the program. I want to see some wrestling.

Brooke: Agreed, well everyone, have a Happy Holiday's!




You see Casey Williams and Dying Breed members Andrew Garcia and Ivan Darrell backstage outside his locker room standing next to "Stoner" Scott Oliver. The trio looks pissed.

Scott: Andrew, Ivan, it is good to see you back at Climax Control. Did you ever get a response about the trademark infringement issues from Lachlan?

Andrew: No, we did not, and after going back to our lawyers, they realized there wasn't anything they could do legally, as the trademark ran out during the week.

Scott: I see. Casey, how do you feel about your retirement?

Casey: It is nice, but I am curious to what London Underground's Daniel J. Morgan and Osbourne's answer to my challenge to them will be, as I was unsuccessful at obtaining the Honor Championship.

Scott: I am interested to see their response as well. What will you do after you retire at Inception III?

Casey: I have something planned, but I don't want to discuss it at the present time, as it hasn't been made official yet.

Casey smiles and the trio walks away from Scott as the scene fades to black.




A video pops up onto the screen as Jordan Monroe is seen waving through the camera.

Jordan: Hi guys and gals, it's your old pal Jordan here with a special holiday message. I have been watching the product and I am very pleased with the new direction. I wish I could be there with you guys but I can't. So I just wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Jordan smiles and blows a kiss at the camera.




Rocky Mountains stands by the wheel as Jessie Salco and Pandora Barrett move into the shot. Rocky reaches up and pulls down on the wheel to set it spinning. The two wrestlers watch each other with a few glances at the wheel as it slows down.

Ms. Rocky Mountains: The wheel is slowing and it looks like this match is going to be...a naughty or nice match

The wrestlers watch as the wheel slows and stops. Jessie and Pandora look at the wheel then at each other. The pair leaves the area as Rocky Mountains shakes her head and the camera moves to the ringside area where technicians can be seen scurrying around with wrapped presents that they begin to decorate the ringside area as Jason speaks up.




Adams: The upcoming match is going to be interesting as the wheel has decided that Jessie and Pandora will be in a Naughty or Nice match. The stipulations for this match is that there are gifts around the ring that have gifts for the wrestlers can use in the match. Some might be weapons...others could be gag gifts but it is going to make things interesting.

Justin makes his way into the ring as boxes are still piled around the ring.

Justin: The following match is scheduled for one fall and introducing first!

The pounding, heavy riff of "No Friends" by Bleeding Through begins to blare through the speakers and ten seconds into the song "The Heavy Metal Angel" Jessie Salco" comes out from the back headbanging to the song as she does.

Justin: From Miami Florida she is "The Heavy Metal Angel" Jessie Salco!

Following her introduction Jessie throws up the metal horns before making her way down to the ring, she slides into the ring and reacts to the chorus of boos with two middle fingers high in the air as she waits for her opponent. The lights go completely out leaving the entire audience in suspense as the song "One for the money" By Escape the Fate hits the speakers. The fans instantly know exactly who's coming out to the ring. Suddenly a single spotlight hits the stage and standing there in a spiked jacket with the hood pulled up over her head happens to be the self-proclaimed Scream Queen. She smirks out peering from under the hood looking out at all the faces before she begins to make her way down the rampway.

Justin: And her opponent, from Lancashire England...She is Pandora Barrett.

As soon as she reaches the ramp, she turns sideways and skips down the steel ramp ignoring all the fans attempting to reach out to her. The black haired beauty chuckles as she finally reaches the end of the ramp and walks up the steel steps along the side of the ring. She stops at the middle of the ropes and looks out at the crowd before tossing her head back removing the hood and letting out a scream before finally climbing into the ring through the middle and bottom ring rope. Pandora makes her way towards the side turnbuckle and easily pulls herself up to sit on the top one crossing her legs.

Simone: Naughty or nice match, I have to say that it suits these two women...well the naughty part.

Adams: From the looks of it Belinda, neither woman is going to care if Santa thinks they are nice.

The referee motions for both women to come to the center of the ring where they are checked over then told the rules as their attention is kept on each other. The referee singles for the bell as neither woman waits before attacking.

Simone: I guess the Christmas spirit isn't with these two.

DING DING DING!

Jessie uses a round house slap against the cheek of Pandora that rocks her back slightly. Barrett feels her cheek with her hand and looks down to check for blood before returning the slap that rocks Jessie to stumble towards a corner where a box is. Before she can open it, Pandora attacks her from behind and pulls her into the corner and smacks her face first into the turnbuckle. Jessie clutches at her face as she staggers away from the corner. Barrett follows her and grabs at the wrist of Jessie to whip her into the ropes. Jessie rebounds off the ropes as Pandora aims for a slingblade but Jessie ducks it then bounces off the bottom rope with a springboard clothesline that takes Pandora to the mat. The two women roll to their hands and knees but Jessie surges up and lands a hare dropkick on the rising Pandora to send her rolling to the ropes. Jessie looks at her then moves to the corner to open one of the presents. Looking at Pandora, Jessie finally rips off the top and pulls out a Christmas card. Looking down at it, she watches as Monopoly money falls out. Tossing it to the side, she reaches out and pulls open another then with disgust reaches inside and pulls out a ball gag. Angrily she slams it to the mat and angrily berates the fans who are screaming and jeering and turns to find Pandora making her way to her feet. Reaching down for the gag, she whips it at the head of Pandora who ducks then charges across the ring with a spear to the midsection of Jessie that doubles her up and sends her through the ropes.

Adams: Pandora Barrett getting the first advantage here by sending Jessie to the outside.

Simone: I wonder if that ball gag was a gift from Amy Marshall knowing that Jessie could have been in this type of match.

Pandora gets to her feet and motions to the fan at the fallen Salco on the outside. Moving to a present, she picks it up and makes a big show of opening it. As the top of the box comes off for the boastful Pandora, her smile fades as she reaches into the box and pulls out reindeer horn headband that she glares at then up at the referee with a questioning look. Rolling her eyes, she drops them and moves to another box that she opens wildly as Jessie pulls on the apron and slides under the ropes where she crawls to the corner to pull herself up by the ropes. Pandora opens another gift to find a pair of coalminers gloves. Smiling, she makes a show of sliding them on. Reaching up, she shows them off to the fans as Jessie opens her own present to reveal a blackjack. Pandora turns to attack a weakened jessie but is surprised as Jessie wields the blackjack that sends Pandora to the mat near where the ball gag is. Smirking evilly, Jessie drops and picking up the ball gag, shoves it into the mouth of Pandora who is laying on her stomach. Pulling back on the straps of it, she tries to bend Pandora in half backwards with a well placed foot in her back. Pandora reaches out for the ropes that are quite near but Jessie pulls harder. Pandora is fighting for the ropes and finally has moved herself enough to drape a foot over the bottom rope forcing the break.

Simone: I guess Jessie got over her anger at the ball gag.

Adams: The way she is using it makes me think she has used it before.

Pandora crawls to the ropes, gagging and trying to get her breath back as Jessie taunts the crowd. Jessie moves to another box, this one a bigger present. She pulls it open and reveals a knit scarf. Tossing it over her shoulder to let it flutter to the canvas, she reaches for a long flat package that she tears into revealing a kendo stick. Pandora makes her way towards Jessie and picks up the scarf that she twists into her hands then loops over the neck of Salco who is surprised. With the noose around the neck of Jessie, Pandora leads her towards the ropes then climbing on them, she flips over to land on the apron while hanging on the scarf to choke Jessie. Salco frantically claws at her throat as Pandora swings along the apron with her feet barely off the floor as Jessie turns blue. The referee is counting Pandore for choking Jessie and at four, she lets go of the scarf as she sits on the apron with a smirk for the ringside fans as Jessie staggers across the ring.

Adams: Pandora being very naughty here Belinda, choking Jessie with that gift.

Simone: You know that the stipulation allows them to use the gifts any way they want to right?

Jessie coughs and rubs at her throat as Pandora is about to stand on the apron. In desperation, Jessie bounces off the ropes and takes a run at the now standing Pandora to hit a suicide dive through the ropes that sends Pandora into the barricade and Jessie to the floor. Both women are on the mats surrounding the ring. Jessie is clutching her chest as Pandora is sprawled on the mat on her back. Slowly each woman fights to get to her feet as Pandora reaches the ring first and rolls under the ropes. Jessie crawls to the other side of the ringsteps then pulls herself up to stand then using her hands climbs the steps and then the turnbuckles as she sees Pandora still on her back trying to catch her breath. Jessie straightens up on the top turnbuckle then sways slightly before launching herself on the body of Pandora with a swanton bomb that has Barrett rolling to her stomach. Jessie rolls herself to her hands and knees then turns Pandora over and into a pin.

Adams: Jessie Salco hits a swanton and now is going to try for the win.

ONE!

TWO!

Simone: Pandora kicks out.

Kicking out of the pin, Pandora rolls to the ropes and under them as Jessie slams her hands in frustration on the mat. Getting to her feet, Jessie moves to the rope as Pandora is struggling to open a package that reveals a fire extinguisher. Dropping the box, Pandora cocks the extinguisher as Jessie reaches through the ropes to grab her by the hair. Pandora hits the button on the extinguisher to hit Salco with the foaming spray that has her coughing and staggering across the ring. Pandora rolls into the ring and then picks up the kendo stick to swing it cockily as Jessie is fighting to catch her breath. With Jessie bent over, Pandora brings the weapon down on the back of Salco who arches in pain then staggers away. Pandora follows and slams another shot from the kendo into the back of Jessie who again arches in pain. Pandora continues to rain down kendo shots before the snap of the stick breaking over the back of Jessie Salco. Pandora tosses the broken stick away and then grabs Jessie to pull her over her shoulders and hits a fall away slam on Salco that has her arching in pain. Pandora then picks her up to have her swaying slightly in the middle of the ring before moving around her then with a taunt, Pandora jumps up and uses a double knee backbreaker on Salco that sends Jessie to the mat. Rolling her up, Pandora pulls the body of Jessie up to pin her to the mat as the referee drops to make the count. Salco begins to kick but Pandora lays a forearm across the neck of Salco taking her fight away by depriving her of oxygen.

Simone: What a vicious woman this Pandora Barrett is!

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

DING DING DING!

Justin: The winner of the match, Pandora Barrett!

Adams: Pandora Barrett wins this naughty or nice match by being very naughty!

Simone: I am shocked that this match wasn't bloodier with that kendo stick being worn out on the back of Salco.

Jessie rolls to the ropes and pulls herself under them to the floor as Pandora celebrates on the corner. Angrily Jessie moves up the ramp watching as Barrett mocks her from the turnbuckles.




We see Junior Guerrero standing outside the locker room where the they are discussing about the trial that Cactus Pete had put on the SCW world champion Fenris.

Senor Vinnie: Now Senor Junior, I know that I usually carry Pete around. But why do I have to be in this court room while I should be preparing for the match???

Junior: Well Senor Vinnie, you are the only one that can translate whatever it is that Pete says, nobody else hears his words.

Senor Vinnie sighs, realizing that Junior was right. Even though he wanted to attempt that Valora seemed to be able to converse with Pete, but realized that the time schedule would be too short to get her there.

Senor Vinnie: oh okay..., just make sure that it will be short!!!

Junior: I try senor Vinnie, but do you know who is going to defend the champ???

Senor Vinnie starts to think about that, but cannot answer that as we go back to the ring.

Adams: Is this really going to happen??

Simone: I'm afraid so.




Eric Weaver: Merry Christmas? I get that it's that time of year but What do I have to be happy about?

Eric says as he has a face of disgust

Eric Weaver: I'm always about the holiday spirit, I'm off for having a good time and being a good guy. But those Bad Boys I've gone too far and need to be done with. I must be the only one to think that since the boss decided to have them fight each other 4 the Combat title instead of having a real wrestler like me get a shot.

So if I ran around with a few people and I was the champion all we will have to do is attack anybody we want and I will be rewarded with fighting someone from my own group so I can have an easy match and continue to be the champion.

You see this is what has been given to Dax. Dax ain't no champion in my eyes. Get in a real match and defended the title. This easy win where Tim lays on his back for you will not slide with me.

Tad, fix this booking or come Christmas day I will do everything in my power to make sure neither men even make it to the ring. You have two days to fix your god awful mistake.

Cameras cut off as Eric walks away.




Char Kwan and Jack Stewart are making their way towards the ring as the cameras fade in on them. Char is smiling from ear to ear as Jack is looking very serious.

Char: Nerd Inc rides again Jack.

Jack: Let's not lose focus. Our main goal is to move past Jon Dough and Amy Marshall.

Char nods.

Char: I hope we make Jim and Bev proud.

Jack smiles.

Jack: That is going to happen when we leave with the win.

Char nods as they walk out of the shot.




The lights in the arena dim slightly as the distinct opening chords of Imagine Dragons "I'm So Sorry" starts to play over the speaker. The drumbeat kicks in as every eye in the area looks towards the entrance ramp. Images of London flashes on the main screen, along with the members of London Underground. The fans boo as Daniel J Morgan, Osbourne, Mackenzie Page and Charlotte Elliot walk on to the ramp.

Justin: Please welcome to the ring at this time, Daniel J Morgan, Osbourne, Charlotte Elliot and Mackenzie Page, they are London Underground.

The four stand calmly, Daniel looks around the crowd as the stoned faced, emotionless Osbourne stands behind him. To either side of them, Mackenzie stands focused, while Charlotte stands stone faced. Daniel looks back with a tilt of the head, nodding towards the ring. The four slowly start to walk down the ramp, mostly ignoring the fans as they move along. Daniel gets to the ring first, a picture of calmness on his face as he looks up at the ring and starts to walk up the steps. He lifts his nearest legs to the ropes and steps in the ring, ducking his body and moving in to the ring. He puts his arms out to the fans as the emotionless Osbourne joins him in the ring, just standing in the middle of the ring, his left hand on his right as a smile crosses Daniel's face. Mackenzie and Charlotte join the two in the ring and quickly moves towards the ropes, both women climbing on them, unaffected by their boos. The women jump down and join the men in the middle of the ring. Justin hands Daniel a microphone as the music fades out.

Daniel: It's not often I find meself out here talking to you but I know you got a lot to hear and it just so happens I got a lot to say.

The fans boo as London Underground look around at them but Daniel remains perfectly calm.

Daniel: I know you all saw the card for this weeks show and said to yourself hold up, rules switched on the mixed tag team championship. The third point will be gained at Inception III. Well, we had one point to our names so we should have been involved in the match coming up where Jon Dough and Amy Marshall, as well as Gamer Inc have a chance to win point two and go on for their play off match with The Jordan's in a few weeks time. We should have been involved I've heard fall from mouths ever since last Sunday.

Daniel looks around at Osbourne, Charlotte and Mackenzie.

Daniel: We can explain that one easily enough, but first we need someone down in the ring to explain it, because it all links together, all wrapped up with a Christmas bow on it. So Casey Williams, I know you're backstage right now, bring yourself out here.

Simone: Casey called out Daniel and Osbourne last week, now Daniel is returning the favour.

The opening guitar rifts and drums hit, then the lyrics of "Trouble" by Five Finger Death Punch start to blast through the speakers, as red and dark blue lights start to flash, reflecting off of mirrors that are set up at the top of the stage, and they go black, and when the lights come back on, Casey Williams appears at the top of the ramp, looking around at the crowd and not moving, his eyes looking at the mirror into his conflicted self.

Casey lets out a roar, his arms out wide before he looks around the crowd, focused and intense. The Freight Train Of Pain starts to walk towards the ring slowly, stopping halfway down the ramp and turning his head to look at the conflicted crowd, their faces showing that they do not know what to make of Casey William's new found aggressiveness. Casey nods his head slowly and turns back to face the ring, walking down towards the apron. Casey puts his hand on the rope, and pulls himself up on to the ring apron and steps over the top rope, staring around at the fans, some cheering and some booing.

Casey looks across the ring at Daniel as the music stops

Daniel: I'm sure you're standing there wondering what you have to do with this tag team bollocks, so let me explain.

Daniel shakes a finger at Casey.

Daniel: Last week, we lost to Ben and Evie Jordan, but we were told we were still in this thing, and that we could indeed go face the guys up next to get a second point, but we said no Casey and it wasn't to do with your challenge either.

Adams: Say what?

Daniel: It's no secret that I am opening up a sports bar in my casino, and I happened to have struck up a deal with Christian Underwood to allow all SCW shows streamed there with SCW wrestlers there to do some hosting, or do their segments when they fancy a piss up when they're not booked. All this starts at Inception III, where myself, Os, Charley and Kenz will be hosting for it's opening night, so if you ain't got tickets for the show, arses can be brought to the sports bar where you can watch the show with us.

The crowd cheer at this news.

Daniel: Needless to say Casey, that is why we will not be booked at Inception III, nor will we be able to accept your challenge to face be or Os.

Daniel points to Os as the crowd boo and Casey looks disappointed.

Daniel: So we won't be the ones waving you off in your retirement match, but we felt like most good retirements for people who have worked here for as long as you have, for someone that is a foundation of Sin City Wrestling. We have brought you a present.

Daniel points to the back and Casey turns around to see.

Simone: What is going on here?

The lights in the arena complete drop to black, staying off for what seems like an eternity.

Adams: I don't know but I thought this was a Christmas show, not a Halloween show.

"Zombie" by Breed 77 blasts through the speakers, the slow intro playing as the lyrics move on the screen. The crowd burst in to huge cheers....

Simone: Oh my god! Could that be?

Adams: It can't be!

The eyes of Gabriel appear on the screen, turning red as the heavier guitars kick in. Purple lights cut through the thick smoke starting to fill the entrance ramp. The crowd wait in anticipation, but Odette Stevens walks out on the top of the ramp.

Simone: It's Odette Stevens!

Adams: When means....

The figure of Gabriel walks out from behind the dark curtain, the a huge chorus of huge cheers. Gabriel is wearing a leather jacket, down to his heels with a hood attached. Odette walks behind him and pulls the hood back from over his eyes, showing Gabriel's face. Gabriel's eyes are focused completely on the ring, his eyes narrowed as he glares at the ring. Odette walks in front of him, opening his long coat, pulling it apart, he puts his arms to his side and Odette runs her hands down his body. Gabriel turns his head to her, with a simple nod, they start to walk to the ring. Gabriel gets outside the ring and puts his hands together, a light burning from his palms. A flash of light engulfs the ring and Gabriel and Odette stands inside.

Simone: I can't believe what we're seeing here. Gabriel and Odette Stevens are in an SCW ring!

A slight smile crosses Casey's face as Gabriel moves around to his group of trainees and Daniel J Morgan hands Gabriel the microphone. Daniel turns to the group and nod, leading London Underground out of the ring. Gabriel turns back towards Casey and tilts his head as he looks at him.

Gabriel: Surprise....

The fans burst in to cheers as Odette moves behind her husband, placing a hand on his shoulder.

Gabriel: Oh Casey, Casey, Casey, my old friend, my old nemesis, the man I had my first ever match against way back when in AWA. Now I'm standing looking at you with one more match left in your tank.

Gabriel's eyes flash red for just a second before he continues.

Gabriel: The last drop of fuel in the tank is there, and I can see it in your eyes that it is more than a bittersweet feeling Casey.

Gabriel tilts his head and smiles slightly at Casey.

Gabriel: I can smell it on ya, but I also know you well enough that you want to go out with a bang. You wanted to go out with someone special, so I am not surprised in the slightest that you looked towards the great people my wife and I have trained, the great champions that came through our ranks and continued our great wrestling legacies. I can see why you looked at them and thought yes, they will be a challenge, and I get why you called out Daniel and Osbourne, because at some point, they will be solo champions here without a doubt in my mind, but you failed to remember one thing Casey.

Gabriel leans in closer to Casey, a slightly arrogant smirk on his face.

Gabriel: I never EVER said I was retired.

The crowd burst in to cheers as a smirk crosses Gabriel's face.

Gabriel: Despayre throws the term around all the time, hell, he did on Twitter earlier, but me, I never said I was a retired wrestler, I stepped away because I had done it all, I had beaten all there was to beat, I became a father and that became my life. I didn't need the money, or to be away from my family.

The crowd cheer at Gabriel's words.

Gabriel: Now I might be old, hell, some people here think anything over thirty is old, but I am sure as shit not retired Casey, so when the rumours went around that you challenged people from my gym because you couldn't face the old enemies in Despayre and Gabriel, the thought hit me. Despayre might claim retirement but I never did. So I'm gonna do a Casey Williams special here and now.

Gabriel fearlessly pokes Casey Williams in the chest.

Gabriel: I'm calling YOU out for Inception III.

The crowd burst in the cheers as Gabriel holds the mic out for Casey. Casey takes it in his hand.

Casey: You know what, Gabriel, I accept your challenge as London Underground decided to surprise me with the opportunity to face one of my all time favorite opponents in my final match here in SCW. I mean, who better to face then someone who knows my career as well as anybody, as we started out in AWA together a decade ago. I am glad London Underground chickened our due to their sports bar as my intent was to get a match with you, and my plan worked.

Gabriel smiles as he puts his hand out towards Casey who grips it firmly. Gabriel smiles as he nods down to his hand, smoke appearing from the handshake of he and Casey, getting thicker and thicker.

Simone: What is going on there?

Adams: I don't know but someone call the police and the fireman cause that's too hot! God damn!

The smoke starts to get thicker before a flash of light engulfs the ring. When the smoke and light clears. Casey is seen in the ring on his own, his hand still out in a shaking position.

Adams: Was Gabriel and Odette even here?

The camera quickly moves to the top of the screen, where Gabriel sits perched high above the arena. Casey looks up at him, but Gabriel just salutes at him.

Simone: Gabriel was the mind freak, the king of mind games and it seems we will be to see his return to the ring for Casey Williams retirement match at Inception III!

The camera cuts elsewhere.




Backstage, Miss Rocky Mountains is joined at the Christmas themed roulette wheel by both teams who would be facing each other in mere moments. To her left, the team of Amy Santino and Jon Dough, and to her right, the combination of Char Kwan and Jack Stewart of Gamers Inc.

Ms. Rocky Mountains: Fans, in just moments we will find out whom will be moving on to face the team of Evie and Ben Jordan in the opening contest of Inception III to determine the challengers for the World Mixed Tag Team Championship, currently held by Sierra Williams and Lachlan Kane. There was a flip of the coin, and Char Kwan? If you would please do the honors?

Char steps up and takes hold of the roulette wheel and gives it a hard spin. Around and around it goes as all eyes are glued to it, watching each stipulation pass by until it starts to slow down and finally falls upon...

Ms. Rocky Mountains: Oh my ... Eggnog Match! These two teams will be doing battle in a kiddie pool filled with holiday eggnog! Good luck to all!

The Gamers Inc members don't seem TOO put out, and Amy has no visible issues. But as he walks away, Jon seems incredibly perturbed!




A close up shot of a large, rectangle shaped kiddie pool filled with thick eggnog and topped off with cinnamon and the pool surrounded by four poles and "ropes."

Adams: I can't believe we're about to see an Eggnog match! Woo hoo as far as seeing Amy and Char in there, but Jon Dough and Jack Stewart?

Jason visibly shudders.

Justin: The following Mixed Tag Team Series match is an Eggnog match, scheduled for one fall to a finish! Introducing first...!

Jon waits for the lyrics to "New Low" to start and holding a mic in his right hand he walks from behind the curtain singing the lyrics to the song while he high fives as many fans as he can till he hit's the area where the pool is set up.

Justin: from Parts Unknown, weighing two hundred and twenty five pounds -- Jon Dough!

Jon stands at the corner of the pool and looks into it and shakes his head as he waits.

Adams: Jon doesn't look too happy, does he?

Simone: How can you tell when he's wearing that ridiculous mask?

Justin: His tag team partner...!

Victim of Me by Descendants begins to play over the sounds system, the lights begin to strobe through the venue as Amy appears through the curtain dancing before stopping half way and pushes her hair back to reveal the black leather surgical face mask decorated with a Cheshire Cat Smile and above that Amy Santino is written in red and in Japanese.

Amy survey the crowd for a moment and raises the as Justin makes her introduction.

Justin: Making her way to the ring, hailing from Juneau, Alaska, she is the current , Amy Santino!

She then continues down the ramp, as slaps the hands of the awaiting fans, she then climbs into the pool, where she surveys the crowd before she heads to the corner, where she takes off the mask and waistcoat and waits for the match to start.

Adams: Amy doesn't seem too bothered by the eggnog.

Simone: Amy is both a competitor and a sport in every sense of the word. She may not be happy but she's going in there with the intent to win.

"Priceless" blares over the sound system as Jack Stewart and Char Kwan step through the curtains. The two of them stand together while waving towards the crowd. They start strutting down the ramp as fans lean over to shake their hands. Once at the poolside area, Jack turns left and Char steps forward. They look at each other before Jack exhales sharply and Char climbs into the pool through the ropes.

Simone: Jack doesn't seem too much in a hurry to get in there either but Char climbed right in to face Amy without a second thought.

Adams: I guess that means the Bombshells get to start this match.

Jasmine, stepping carefully into the pool and grimacing, calls for the bell.

DING DING DING

Char and Amy emerge from their corners and they lock up, and the slippery eggnog already causes the struggle between the two Bombshells to force them to slip and land in the mess with a loud splash! The crowd cheers as they continue to struggle in the collar and elbow tie up, rolling around on the pool's flat surface, fighting to gain the upper hand and creating a mess all in one fell swoop! Char ends up on top, pinning Amy down while she straddles her waistline and Char throws hammering forearm blows into the side of Santino's head! Amy fights out of it, and throws Char over and onto her own back where Amy brings down rapid left and right strikes into Kwan's exposed lovely face, stunning her!

Simone: This one is already getting dirty!

Adams: Well they're fighting in eggnog! I'd hardly think it would be clean!

Simone: That is not what I -- ohh, never mind!

Amy drags Char up and holds her tightly by the head and neck while she brings a hard knee strike into the side of her head, knocking her back up against the ropes! Char almost falls to her knees but Amy helps her along with a snapmare, then comes up in front of her and slides into her with a Shining wizard knee strike! Char is knocked flat on her back and Amy makes the first cover attempt for the match!

ONE!

TWO!

Char kicks out!

Simone: With so much on the line in this one match, it's not going to be easy to keep any of these four down!

Amy pulls Char up into a seated position and uses this as a means to wrap her legs around her waistline from behind in a full body scissors.

Simone: Amy is a ring veteran. She knows the moves she -- and any of these four -- will be limited in such a mess, so she's going with what she knows could prove successful.

Char grimaces and Jasmine asks if she wants to submit but Char shakes her head, refusing! Char reaches for the ropes but is unable to reach it -- and Amy rolls her over so that her shoulders are pinned down!

ONE!

TWO!

Char kicks out!

And they roll back where Amy retains the scissors. Char looks around for a counter until she finally is able to get to her knees and slowly turn around so that she is facing Amy. Char manages to stand on her feet and she falls back, sending Amy flying with a catapult! Amy flies into the ropes, thanks in part to the maneuver, and her throat lands across the makeshift ring ropes! Amy staggers back and Char grabs her and falls back with a side Chinese leg sweep! Char rolls right through and is on top, hooking the leg!

ONE!

TWO!

Amy kicks out!

Char grabs Amy and drags her to her feet and hits a stiff clothesline right to the throat, causing the HoFer to crumble to her back, clutching her throat. Amy coughs as she rolls over and gets to her knees slowly, and Char manages a cartwheel enzugari strike to the back of her head! Char rolls her over onto her back and covers her again.

ONE!

TWO!

Amy gets her shoulder up!

Adams: Are the guys ever going to get in there?

Simone: Not if they can help it.

Adams: Maybe the Bombshells are just going to try and save them the pain and handle this themselves. Fine by me!

Char drags Amy to her feet and tries to throw her down into the corner but slips in the eggnog and in mid-fall, Amy counters and reverses it into a Fujiwara arm bar! Amy pulls back on the hold, working on Kwan's shoulder as the young grappler yells out in pain! But being covered in that substance keeps Amy from being able to retain the hold for long and Char finally slips out. Char rolls to the corner holding her arm and Amy moves in and starts to deliver several stomps down into her body, ignoring Jasmine's attempts to back her off!

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

FOUR!

Amy then breaks, but only long enough to move back in. She grabs Char and drags her up where she manages to throw her over with an Exploder suplex without much difficulty! Char rolls over to her corner and Jack has no choice BUT to tag himself in in order to save the match for his team!

Adams: Oh boy! You know what THIS means!

Simone: Now the Superstars have to get into that mess!

Jack is incredibly reluctant to do so but he does, stepping through the ropes. On the other hand, Jon Dough steps back from the corner, refusing Amy's hand and waving his arms.

Adams: Not that I want to see this, but what are you doing? You have to!

But Jon shakes his head, refusing to tag Amy and refusing Jasmine's orders to get into the pool! Jack stands there, beckoning him but to no avail when the crowd starts cheering!

Adams: What ... uh OH!

Simone: It's Ty West!

The Roulette Champion walks out from backstage and approaches Jon from behind, leaving the masked Superstar none the wiser! Ty suddenly places both hands on Jon's back and PUSHES him! Jon hits the ropes and flies into the pool with a big SPLASH!

Adams: Oh NO!

An eggnog covered Jon rolls over and tares at Ty who backs away with a shrug, waving toward Jon before taking his leave! Jon manages to scramble to his feet and he starts for the ropes, possibly to give chase but Jack dropkicks him from behind, sending him flying into the eggnog, face and chest first! As Jon gets to his hands and knees, Jack plays to his fun loving side and hops on Dough's back for a horsey ride!

Simone: Oh that's humiliating!

Jack "rides" Jon around the pool until Jon rolls over and throws him off! But Jack jumps and plants him with a one handed bulldog! Jack rolls him over onto his back for the cover!

ONE!

TWO!

Jon kicks out!

Jack pulls Jon up to his feet from behind in a rear waist lock and brings him over with a release German suplex! Jack covers him again!

ONE!

TWO!

Jon kicks out a second time!

Jack backs up a few steps, readying himself and waiting for his opponent to rise! Once Jon does, Jack moves forward quickly but Jon jumps and nails Stewart with a Black Mass spinning kick!

Simone: Good god!

Jack goes down like he was shot!

Adams: I THINK Jon Dough may be a wee bit pissed!

Simone: You think!?

Jon is fuming and he grabs Jack and pulls him to his knees where he lashes out with a shuffle sidekick, sending him to his back! Jon covers him and hooks the leg!

ONE!

TWO!

But Jack gets his shoulder up!

Jon drags him up to his feet from behind, grabbing his arms and attempting the Dough Drop, but Jack slips out and reverses it into a victory roll up!

ONE!

TWO!

Jon kicks out!

Jack shows some resiliency as they both rise and Jack hits him with a forearm! He then goes for the Mic Drop but Jon reverses it into the Silent Nightmare! Jon rolls him over and covers him!

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

DING DING DING!

Justin: Here are your winners, advancing to Inception III -- Jon Dough and Amy Santino!

Jon immediately exits the pool an storms off to the back with Amy following closely as Char Kwan checks on Jack!

Simone: That settles it! It will be Jon Dough and Amy Santino against Ben Jordan and Evie Jordan to see just who will face the World Mixed Tag Team Champions, Sierra Williams and Lachlan Kane at Inception III!

Adams: But if you thought it was over between Jon Dough and Ty West - not after what we just saw happen!




The camera cuts backstage directly after the match to see Ben and Evie Jordan watching Amy and Jon celebrate while covered in eggnog. Ben is dressed in a red santa suit with matching Santa hat and a fake white beard hanging from his chin. Not joining in with the festivities, Evie is dressed in blue jeans and a white shirt, cut to show off her midrift. Ben looks towards Evie.

Ben: I had a feeling we'd be facing a couple of my old muckers at Inception III.

Evie: Yeah, mostly because Gamer Inc suck and have no business being wrestlers.

Ben: I wouldn't have put it that way to be fair. It is the season to be nice and all that stuff, not just cause I look alright in red.

Ben points to his Santa suits.

Evie: You look good in everything.

Evie bites her lower lip as she looks at her husband, wrapping her arms around his neck and smile, but Pussy Willow interupts the couple, much to Evie's anger.

Evie: What the fuck do you want?

Pussy steps a little closer to the couple, slightly nervous.

Ben: Don't worry about my little elf here, she just misplaced her Christmas spirit.

Evie: This elf has claws Santa.

Ben raises and eyebrow at his wife before turning towards Pussy.

Ben: What can we do for ya?

Pussy: We've just seen who you'll be facing at Inception III before maybe getting a shot at the Mixed Tag Team championship. What are your thoughts?

Evie rolls her eyes, not impressed by the question.

Evie: We're facing Amy Santino, one of the luckiest people to have ever stepped foot in an SCW ring, a woman who has never won anything clearly, it's all been by dumb luck. She thinks she is gonna get past us? No fucking chance.

Ben: I wouldn't be as blunt as that but old rivalries and friendships collide but the truth is I'm pretty confident that we'll be in the ring facing Team Eggplant.

Evie: Those two wouldn't even be in the match if it wasn't for London Underground stepping away cause they would have kicked the shit out of Amy and Jon.

Ben: Not sure how happy they would have been in that kinda match.

Pussy: With 2018 coming to a close, it's been a tough year for you personally, but a great one by announcing your marriage, do you have anything to say to the SCW fans.

Ben: I want to thank you all for supporting me through my illness and thanks for the well wishes and congrats on the marriage. I'm far from done, Evie is far from done, 2019 is the year of the Jordans. Anyway love, we gotta go, I gotta speak to Mark and Christian about something, I'll catch ya later.

Ben and Evie walk off camera as the scene cuts elsewhere.




Camera go backstage, we see many of the SCW and SCU staff mingling in what looks like a small company Christmas party environment. As the cameras look around they spot Jerry and Kandy. The camera zooms in at them, Jerry taps Kandy to turn around so she can face the camera. The two put on a big cheesy smile.

Jerry: You know, I'd love for Kandy and I to have been in the finals to take on Team Eggplant. It didn't work out that way but guess what?

Kandy: What?

Jerry: Oh sorry Kandy, I was talking to the viewers watching on thought the camera.

Kandy: Oh... MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Jerry: Yes, Merry Christmas, I hope 2018 was great for you all. Come 2019 expect nothing but great things, Kandy and I sure will.

Kandy: We will?

Jerry: Of course, SCU and SCW have not seen the last...

Kandy: Of the Killer Kandy's!!!

SCU Hardcore Tag Team Champions appear on screen. Tatsu in front and Winter behind them.

Kandy: Hey Tatsu!

Tatsu: You too have to kiss!

Jerry raises his left eyebrow. Tatsu points up above them, they look up and see Winter holding a mistletoe just inches from there heads.

Winter: You heard Tatsu-Dragon! Now Kiss eh!

Jerry and Kandy just shrug it off and give each other a peck.

Tatsu: That's no kiss.

Winter: Yeah we'll show you what a kiss is right Tatsu-Dragon!

Tatsu: Oh know we won't!

Winter: Hey get over here!

Tatsu runs away as Winter chases after her. Jerry and Kandy just look on not sure what to think as the cameras fade out.




We cut backstage as as Senor Vinnie, Cactus Pete and their lawyer are sitting behind their table as we see Fenris sitting behind his. He has the championship belt in front of him as Senor Vinnie has the plant in his hands as he is staring back at the champ angrily.

Senor Vinnie: You should be thankful that I can contain Pete!!! He is ready to tear you apart!!!

Fenris looks at him and is clueless.

Fenris: What??? It's a PLANT!

The door opens and we see Justin Decent walk in and has a microphone that isn't attached to any sound system.

Justin: All rise!!!

The four men stand up and the camera turn back to Justin Decent.

Justin: And the judge to this court session is one of our bosses!!! Christian Underwood!!!

Underwood gets in and sits down, plants his feet on the table in front of him and is clearly annoyed.

Christian: Okay, here is my thing. I don't care about this, I want Vinnie and Fenris in the ring tonight. So I want to get this done and I want all of you do your thing and say what you want to say. So let's get this started!!

He looks at the champion and sees there are no defense team for the champ.

Christian: Who is your defense team Fenris??

He is about to say something when suddenly the door opens and a familiar face enters.

Senor Vinnie: A kid???

Despayre: Sorry I'm late!

He plops himself into the chair beside Fenris. He plops briefcase on the table, narrowly missing the champion's fingers. he pops it open and inside are -- comic books!? He looks to the "judge" and smiles.

Despayre: They were making a fresh batch of cotton candy. I'm sure you understand.

He holds up a cone of powder blue cotton candy and tears off a mouthful with his teeth.

Adams: That's Despayre! Despayre is Fenris's attorney!?




Castle is coming.... #2019




We cut to the backstage area and it is there where we are taken to the office of Mark Ward and Christian Underwood. It is there where we are able to see Mercedes Lewis walking into the office with a wicked grin on her face as she walks right up to the desk with a smile on her face.

Mercedes: Hello there I am Mercedes Lewis best right hand in all of wrestling. Have you seen Crystal Hilton?!

Christina can't help but offer a wicked grin as she lifts her head up with a grin on her face. She is wearing her eye glasses along with a pokemon shirt.

Christina: Nice to meet you... I am Christina Rose. Crystal Hilton hasn't arrived yet... To be honest she only shows up at the very last minute.

Mercedes: ...

Christina: Hey why are you looking at me like that?! I have so much work to catch up on. I have hotels to book for these bombshells and superstars. Despite what Christian thinks I am an amazing personal assistant. I am able to do my job unless I am BANNED FROM THE FUCKING ARENA!

Mercedes: You okay?!

Christina: Yeah just venting... Although don't know if I am venting over Christian Underwood or the fact that beating that final boss in Mega Man 8 was a Bitch!

Mercedes: So do you know when I can find Crystal?!

Christina gets up as she walks away. A few moments goes by and when she walks back we can see her in her wrestling gear along with a following of paparazzi behind her. Crystal cracks a wide grin on her face as she looks at Mercedes.

Crystal: Did you need the FOUR TIME HALL OF FAMER?! Of course you do. Are you ready to make your big debut tonight?!

Mercedes: Of course I am... I am ready to knock out somebody.

Crystal: Good and it's also about being an awesome bodyguard. Just make sure Cat Riley doesn't come anywhere near me. I will get my licks in and you are there to protect me at all costs. If stuff gets too hectic promise you will be there to protect your queen?

Mercedes: Of course...

Crystal: Good I am the QUEEN OF SUBMISSIONS! The whole world witnessed Cat Riley tapping out like a little bitch! She doesn't deserve to be in the same ring with me. I will twist her like a pretzel and when I am done with her this company better give me what I eventually want and that's a shot at the World Bombshell Championship. It's so unfitting of me to have to sit out three Super Cards without being in contention for the biggest championship that this company has to offer. Since the days of Mikah stepping away and me not really competing this division has tanked. They need me to take a stand. It needs me to be it's Queen once again and bring the rightful balance that it deserves. It starts with Cat Riley and it's about making me look good at all costs and of course rising through the ranks.

Mercedes: Understood I am right by your side Christina... More so than that of Seleana...

Crystal sighs as she just shakes her head in disgust.

Crystal: You mean that wife of mine who thinks I am an "aging star" the same wife who lets her friends SMJ and Eavan just talk so much shit about me and doesn't say anything back?! Yeah we aren't going to discuss Seleana right now. This is about me... It's always been about me and right now this rose needs to show that it refuses to wither away. Come on Mercedes we got some work to do...

With that Crystal can't help but grin as the two of them walk out of the office.




Once again we return to the busiest reporter on the show, Ms. Rocky Mountains. This time, she stands next to Lachlan Kane, Travis Levitt and St. John Cross.

Ms. Rocky Mountains: It's time for another spin of the wheel to determine what match type Lachlan Kane, Travis Levitt and St. John Cross will be wrestling in, in just a few minutes.

Ms. Rocky Mountains spins the wheel and the crowd hold their breath in anticipation. The wheel rotates before landing on Glass Bulb match. Ms. Rocky Mountains looks around the group with a warm smile.

Ms. Rocky Mountains: A Glass Bulb match. Best of luck to you all.

The camera switches back to ringside.




The camera enters a screen shot of the six-sided ring with referee, Drew Patton.

Justin: The following Glass Bulbs match is scheduled for one fall!

The bass kicks in through the PA and 'Ashes to Ashes' starts to echo around the arena. A small fog starting to slip from the stage, and as the music builds a melancholy atmosphere, from the back stalks 'The Phoenix' Travis Levitt. Dressed in his usual long leather jacket, hair cascading around his face as he walks out, and starts to pace down the ramp.

Justin: Making his way to the ring, from Richmond, Virginia, weighing two hundred and fifty pounds, 'the Phoenix' Travis Levitt!

The Phoenix reaches the ring, sliding in under the bottom rope and propping up onto his knees. Glancing around at the crowd, Levitt's face is one of focus as he slowly rises to his feet before stripping off his jacket, and turning to drop it outside the ring to the roadie, before he gets ready for battle.

Simone: This man impressed a number of people in his debut recently.

Adams: Things can only get better for him from here. Well, unless he lands on those light bulbs that is.

Simone: Which will be a difficult thing to avoid.

"The Soul of a Man" by Steven Stern begins to play. The lights in the arena dim with a sole spotlight on the ramp. In the spotlight stands St. John Cross with his hooded head lowered and his arms stretched out. After a few moments, he lifts his head and does the "sign of the cross" to himself before walking down the ramp.

Justin: From Los Angeles, California, weighing two hundred and five pounds -- St. John Cross!

St. John is emotionless as he makes his way to ringside. He slides into the ring from under the bottom rope and in a fluid motion pops up to his feet. He pauses at center ring and faces the camera with his arms once again stretched out just glaring at his audience. He then backs up into a corner as he waits further instruction from the official.

Simone: Whether it be on social media, inside of the ring or at poolside, this man, who was once a monk, has a way of impressive all who lay eyes on him.

Adams: Poolside?

Simone: I have eyes, Jason.

As the lights in the arena cut to black, the speakers come to life with the sound of "Heart of Fire" by Black Veil Brides. The lights begin to flash in an array of white and red as smoke fills the entrance stage. Strolling out to an overwhelming chorus of cheers, Lachlan Kane smiles out at the crowd and throws a couple of phantom punches before making his way down the ramp, slapping hands with the fans along the way.

Justin: And their opponent! From Waterford, Ireland, weighing one hundred and ninety pounds, he is one-half of the World Mixed Tag Team Champions, Lachlan Kane!

He runs up the steel steps and bounces against the ropes on the outside of the ring on the apron's edge before stepping through the ropes into the centre of the ring. He grins again before throwing his hands up to the deafening roar of the crowd. As his music fades away, he takes off his jacket and hands it off to the ring announcer and throws a few more punches to ready himself.

Adams: Lachlan is unbeaten so far in his singles career here in SCW.

Simone: And both St. John and Travis Levitt would love to be the ones to put an end to that.

Drew steps up into the center of the ring with a large canvas sack in hand. He shows it to all three men and then proceeds to turn it upside down and dumps the contents -- a mountain of colorful Christmas light bulbs -- all over the ring. The crowd cheers and the three men stare at the bulbs, and then at each other.

Simone: This will not be pretty.

Drew drops the bag over the ropes to the floor, then calls for the bell!

DING DING DING!

The three young men come out of their corners with caution, eyeing one another at first, then the light bulbs. Suddenly the Mixed Tag Champion Lachlan fires off the first shot with a sharp kick to the midsection of Travis, then moves in on St. John who looks to take advantage. Lachlan strikes a knife edge chop across Cross's perfect pecs, sending a stinging shot across the building and making him stagger back against the ropes, holding his chest and making a pained face!

Travis goes to attack Lachlan from behind with a running blow, but Lachlan ducks and then hits him with a knife edge chop as well!

Simone: Lachlan's speed is going to come in very handy here in this match.

Lachlan then rocks Travis with a European uppercut and grabs him into a front facelock. Lachlan tries for a DDT into the bulbs, but the larger 'Phoenix' puts on the brakes and heaves him off! But Lachlan lands on his feet, crushing some of the bulbs underfoot! They both have forgotten about St. John who has stepped out onto the ring apron. St. John lets loose a whistle, causing both to turn their heads in his direction. St. John then jumps on the ropes and uses it as a springboard to launch himself and he dropkicks BOTH Lachlan as well as Travis! St. John lands on the mat and immediately yells out and thrashes about!

Simone: Oh my---!! He sacrificed himself in order to do some damage to his two opponents and entertain the fans!

Adams: Just because he's pretty doesn't necessarily mean he's smart. I know what that's like!

Simone:..................

But Lachlan and Travis suffer as well as they too have landed on the fragile bulbs and crushed them beneath their bodies! All three men roll through and display small lacerations on their backs and now legs as they slowly rise. St. John stands in between both kneeling men and he goes back and forth between them, lashing out and kicking each men in turn with a hard MMA kick to their sternum!

Adams: YES! YES! YES!

Simone: Wrong company, Jason!

St. John then comes off the ropes and goes for a head kick on the Mixed Tag champ but Lachlan avoids it and rolls him up from behind for the pin!

ONE!

TWO!

St. John kicks out!

Lachlan is back up and as Travis moves toward him, the champion jumps on him for a Thesz press, taking him down and raining right hands into his head while Levitt kicks and struggles to get him off! Lachlan rolls off, bringing Travis up along with him and he goes for a short-arm clothesline but Travis ducks under the blow and grabs him around the waist from behind and dumps him on the back of his head and neck with a release German suplex!

Adams: God, look! Now Lachlan is bleeding from the back of his head!

Simone: With over six hundred pounds of humanity crashing around that ring, there's no way those light bulbs will stay intact!

Travis stands up with his own back, arms and legs bleeding freely and he turns around -- and St. John attempts a spinning wheel kick on him but Travis ducks and counters with a pump handle suplex, driving St. John into more shards! Travis hooks the leg on Cross!

ONE!

TWO!

St. John gets a shoulder up!

Adams: I wonder which Bombshell will win the bidding to lean his back up from that mess Travis is making -- Bel? Why are you getting your credit card out?

Travis drags St. John up and sends him hard into the corner with an Irish whip and follows in with a corner splash! Travis then pulls him out and attempts a belly to back suplex but St. John shifts his weight and lands on his feet behind him! Travis spins around quickly but St. John doubles him over with a boot to the midsection. St. John races into the ropes and comes off, and runs right into a Tilt-A-Whirl slam courtesy of the Phoenix! Travis covers him again!

ONE!

TWO!

Lachlan breaks it up, diving on top of both men!

Simone: What action we are seeing!

Lachlan immediately assaults Travis with forearms on the mat, working him over until Travis starts fending him off with shots of his own! He fights his way to his feet and now both men are exchanging heavy face and body blows!

Adams: It was pretty obvious this match wouldn't be pretty! -- No offense St. John!

The larger Travis Levitt gains the advantage of this melee, and he drives Lachlan back into the corner with a number of right hands! Travis then goes for an Irish whip into the neutral corner but Lachlan reverses it! Travis hits the corner and staggers out -- and Lachlan jumps and drives him face-first with a one handed bulldog!

Simone: Dear god! Right into the glass!

Travis rolls over onto his back, his forehead now bleeding profusely! Lachlan then quickly goes up top, his own body aching, readying for the Lach-Down, but St. John runs right up the corner and instead brings him crashing down the hard way with a top rope belly to belly!

Adams: Oh! My! GAWD!

Crowd: HOLY SH*T! HOLY SH*T! HOLY SH*T!

Simone: Perhaps not appropriate for a Christmas show but very well intended!

St. John with the cover!

ONE!

TWO!

Lachlan gets a shoulder up!

St. John then covers Travis!

ONE!

TWO!

Travis kicks out!

Simone: Neither man willing to stay on their backs!

Adams: There's a dirty joke in there somewhere but this is a Christmas show...

St. John then drags Lachlan to his feet and throws him through the ropes, dumping him to the outside!

Simone: That indeed is a very smart tactic from Lachlan. He needs to isolate one man if he hopes to get the win here.

Adams: All three of these fellas could use that!

A bleeding Travis uses the ropes to drag himself up to his feet and St. John comes running in for a high knee but Travis catches him and drops him in a back breaker across his knee! Travis Irish whips him into the ropes and attempts a clothesline but St. John ducks and comes flying off the far side of the ropes, and right into a big boot! Travis stands over the dazed St. John and kicks a number of the bulbs, broken and otherwise, into a small pile.

Adams: Oh no, what's Travis up to?

Simone: Whatever it is, it won't be anything good for St. John Cross!

Travis drags him up with his hand entangled in Cross's bloody curls, and hits the tiger bomb -- right on the bulbs!

Adams: BLOODY HELL! -- And I mean that!

Travis with the cover!

ONE!

TWO!

THR-St. John kicks out!

Simone: Travis Levitt can't believe it!

Travis stands up and he goes to run into the ropes, but Lachlan grabs his boot from the outside and trips him! Lachlan drags Levitt out under the bottom rope and drops him to the floor! As Travis slowly rises, Lachlan gets a running start and hits him with a perfect Shotgun dropkick -- sending him crashing back into the metal ring steps!

Adams: Oh it sucks to be him!!

Lachlan drinks in the cheers of the fans with a smile on his face, but as he drags Travis to a vertical base, St. John comes diving through the ropes with a suicide dive, wiping all three men out!

Fans: SCW! SCW! SCW!

Adams: I couldn't have said it any better myself!

St. John staggers to his feet, bringing Lachlan up along with him! He rolls the tag champion into the ring and follows. He pulls him up onto his feet, back to back and ducks down, lifting him up and dropping him into the shards...!

Simone: Soul's Exile!

St. John covers him!

ONE!

TWO!

Travis tries to get in to break it up!

THREE!

DING DING DING!

Simone: And just like that, the unbeaten streak of Lachlan Kane comes to an end!

Drew raises St. John's arm in victory as the crowd cheers!

Justin: Here is your winner -- St. John CROSS!!

The crowd cheers!

Adams: After this, all three of those men have an appointment with the paramedics!




Gimme Chocolate by Baby Metal Starts to play. Hardcore Tag Team champions Kawaii Dragons skip down the ramp. The crowd give them a mix reaction as they slide in the ring then dance to there theme song.

After about a minute the music fades and they stoop dancing. Winter and Tatsu remove microphone from there back pocket.

Tatsu: Tomorrow is Christmas!!!!

Winter: No.

Tatsu: Yes.

Winter: No.

Tatsu: Yes!

Winter: Tatsu-dragon�

Tatsu: Yes, Tatsu from Japan, Japan ahead on timezone by like a lot.

Winter lets out s laugh

Winter: Like a lot eh!

Tatsu lets out a laugh.

Tatsu: Eh! You sound funny sometimes Winter-Dragon.

Winter gives Tatsu the evil eye. Tatsu sticks her tongue out at her in response.

Tatsu: We want to�

�Say nothing�

Everyone turns to the rampway as we see Combat Champion Shannon Middlebrooks walk out with a microphone along with Ivory and Shelby holding the Kawaii Dragons kendo sticks.

Tatsu: Hey you steal Kawaii Sticks!

Shannon: You want them back?

Shannon lets out an evil smile.

Shannon: You heard them ladies, go give them back there kendo sticks.

Ivory and Shelby make a b line towards the ring.

Winter: Oh shit!

Tatsu and Winter drop there microphones and runs away, they jump over the ropes then over the barricade. The New Foundation give chase. Kawaii Dragons take off jumping on people's laps as they cut a few aisles. The crowd goes nuts as Ivory and Shelby chase them around the the fans seating area.

They reach a tunnel that leads to the food stances. Security run in from the other side, they let the Kawaii Dragons pass them so they can block Ivory and Shelby from getting any closer.

As security hold the challengers back the hardcore champions stick their tongues out at them and begin to taunt them. They see Shannon leaving the ramp and heading towards them. Kawaii Dragons the the area with the crowd booing and chanting for them to fight as the camera zoom out then cut away.




Backstage, Sam Marlowe can be seen stretching out dressed in a pair of hot pants and a halter that is green and shiny and looks like an elf suit. Her red hair is pulled up in a pile of curls that frames her face. She is joined by Pussy Willow who smiles and and begins to speak.

Pussy Willow: Merry Christmas Sam. I wanted to talk to you about your match this evening. You are teamed up with Cat Riley to face Crystal Zdunich and her friend Mercedes Lewis. Do you have any idea of why this happened or what will be happening in the ring tonight?

Sam smiles as she straightens up and addresses the microphone that is shoved towards her.

Sam Marlowe: Well Pussy, tonight I am in a match that most people would be surprised to see me in. I mean that I was chosen by Cat Riley to help her in this tag match means a lot, it means that she thinks that I am a worthy partner for this match and that she has faith in me. Which you know means that I am going to be giving my all in this match and won't let her down.

Pussy Willow: But Sam you always do. And I want to ask you, what is your thoughts on facing the team of Crystal and her friend Mercedes?

Sam Marlowe: My thoughts are that they are going to be giving us a fight but that fight is not going to be enough to beat us in the match. I know Crystal will talk about how she has beaten me before and I freely admit she has but since then, I have gotten better and I have made sure that I trained for this match tonight in preparation. And beside, I have all the confidence in my partner that between us, we have Crystal's number.

Sam nods in confidence as she speaks. Suddenly a slow clap can be heard from the side as Apple Coren moves into the shot. Still clapping, she pushes between the pair and smirks.

Pussy Willow: Sammi, I don't think you have met Apple Coren before.

Sam Marlowe: No, I haven't been formally introduced. Merry Christmas Apple!

The smirk fades as Apple looks down at the hand that is extended by Sam before turning to Pussy and nudges her conspiratorily.

Apple Coren: Oh look, it is Ms Trendsetter...

Sam Marlowe: I beg your pardon?

Apple Coren: What part of trendsetter do you not understand? You do something and everyone else has to follow...It is like no one else in SCW has a collective original thought.

Sam frowns slightly at Apple's comment before speaking out.

Sam Marlowe: What are you talking about? I do something and everyone follows?

Apple Coren: Let me elucidate for you. Isn't it you that decided to sit with the common people out in the arena. Now everyone from Ben and Evie Jordan, Lachlan and Sierra...all the nobodies in this company have taken to sitting in with the fans. So instead of you being out there with the unwashed masses, you are here backstage and goodness knows that everyone will follow the trend you set and be backstage. Pathetic really. But I am here to tell you that for as much as you are a trendsetter, I am not a sheep like the rest of the roster. You may think you are a leader but you will never lead me do you hear me?

With that, Apple lifts her nose upward and offers a false smile to Sam and Pussy before she leaves again. Sam shoots a look at her friend and tilts her head questioningly.

Sam Marlowe: Do you know what that was about?

Pussy shrugs as she brings the microphone up to speak again but an intern moves to tap Sam on the shoulder and point to something on the clipboard in his hand. Sam offers an apologetic look at Pussy as she begins to back away.

Sam Marlowe: Merry Christmas Pussy.

Sam picks up her belt and tosses it over her shoulder before moving out of eyesight around the corner leaving Pussy to watch her go.




The lights shut off as "United Divided" by Voodoo Johnson kicks in, as it builds different lights flash around the arena. As the song builds into the refrain and the guitars kick in a spotlight forms on the stage with Austin standing in the middle. He makes his way down to the ring before moving around to the steps, he makes his way up and walks across the apron before stepping between the ropes, he stands in the center of the ring as the music shuts off.

Adams: Austin did not have a good night last week...

Simone: No kidding, but alot will say he never lost the Honor title...

Adams: Well technically he didn't, but in the end Jake Raab is the Honor champion and that huge match that we had been hoping would happen between Fenris and Austin is on hold...

Simone: Normally I stand by company decisions but who the hell gives a whiny child a title shot in a triple threat match weeks before a major supercard when tickets have been sold on the idea that we would have two titans of wrestling going head to head?

Austin stands in the center of the ring and shakes his head looking less than impressed. He wears street clothes with jeans and a black and red "wolfslair" T-shirt.

Austin: I feel like I need to apologise to all of you. See, I was ready to defend that Honor title and then go on to face Fenris at Inception. It was a match the entire wrestling world had looked at with excitement. But I don't get to give that match to you. See, a few weeks ago Jake Raab decided to throw a tantrum in his promo and beg and whine till he got a title shot. Now, I wouldn't have cared if it was a one on one shot, cause if it had been one on one?..Jake Raab would not be holding MY title....

Austin lowers the mic for a moment pacing back and forth.

Austin: I kept thinking to myself Why?. Why would SCW management book me in a triple threat match so close to a supercard. One on one, no one back there can beat me, no one can stop me so instead they made it so someone could slip in the back door and take the Honor championship and now A man who wasn't even in Honor is representing that brand as it's champion and it hit me....SCW doesn't give a damn about Honor and it's legacy...

His anger rises as he moves back and forth again.

Austin: I tried, I tried so hard to toe the company line, but in the end look what happened. I have no problem facing anyone at any time but that right there was the definition of a screw job. Jake Raab got a shot cause he whined like a bitch and Casey Williams shouldn't have been there after I beat him. So why?....why am I going to put up with this?...well...I'm not. I'm not going to stand for it...but when you decide to go to war...you need backup.....you need people you can trust and people who believe the in the same things you do....

Austin lowers the mic as Crystal Lake's "The Circle" hits, the crowd seems confused but then it turns to shock as Alex Jones steps out onto the stage in a black hoodie and jeans. The fans then start a slow cheer as Alex moves down to the ring.

Simone: Is that?....that's Alex Jones!

Adams: Wow, he is a former Honor champion as well as a world champion many many other times over.....and he is also one of the men who trained Alicia Lukas and he owns Wolfslair gym with Austin...

Alex takes the mic from Austin and shakes his head.

Alex: Well, I'm sure many of you are shocked to see me here in an SCW ring. See when Honor and SCW merged I took some time off, worked a few smaller shows. And I was content to sit back and enjoy a few months or years of relaxation. But then I turned on SCW TV and watched as the man who held a title I made famous had to defend it against two men. I watched as Honor's legacy...MY LEGACY got flushed down the toilet....I mean...Jake Raab?....a champion?....anyone with the last name or Raab shouldn't hold a title as prestigeous as that....so it was clear what I had to do.....

Alex slowly unzips his hoodie and shows the same t-shirt Austin is wearing.

Alex: I had to come back and stand by this mans side. And this...this isn't just a gym, this now who we are....so SCW...prepare for Wolfslair....

Alex drops the mic as The Circle hits again, Austin and Alex slide from the ring and walk back up the ramp




We are back to the court room where we see that Despayre has volunteered to defend Fenris, who is wearing his glasses while looking down at some law books, who are upside down and tries to get prepared for this.

Christian: Are we all ready???

Despayre: I object!!!!

Everyone looks at Despayre including Fenris as he face palms himself.

Christian: For what??? We haven't even started yet!!

Despayre: I know Christian...., I was just checking if you were aware of it too.

Underwood ignores that as he turns to Junior.

Christian: Do you have your statement ready??

Junior: Yes sir,

He gets up from his seat and walks to the table of Underwood and starts to do his speech.

Junior: TO everyone out here, let us go back to the faithful evening that Fenris defended his title and knocked out his number one contender Senor Vinnie. When that moment came, Senor Vinnie's manager and friend the cactus Pete suffered a painful emotional distress. Having to witness the best friend that he has ever had suffer and gotten knocked out.

Despayre: You ready???

Junior looks around and shakes his head no, causing Despayre to roll his eyes.

Despayre: Okay, just hurry up. I have more to do.

Junior looks at him clueless and continues.

Junior: That moment has made the cactus lose his confidence, has lost ability to finance the man that he manages and well.... He has turned into a little child. And that is all this man's fault!!!

He points at Fenris and sits down. Despayre looks to his client.

Despayre: Boy has he got a good case against you! I'd hate to be the one to try and fight that!

Fenris: You ARE the one who has to try and fight that!

Despayre: Oh.

Despayre stares straight ahead.

Despayre: Well that sucks!

Christian: Now it is your turn Despy.

Despayre: For what?

Christian closes his eyes and sighs with annoyance.

Christian: To present your case!

Despayre: Right!

Despayre then hops to his feet, and with his thumbs tucked into his shirt, he starts to walk back and forth in front of the "court" just like a real pro.

Despayre: Ladies and gentlemen of the jury...

Christian: There's no jury, Despayre. It's just me presiding over this -- this, case.

Despayre: Oh, well there went part one of my defense. I guess it's on to part two!

He turns around and walks back toward his table, bumping into the prosecution's table due in part to his glasses rendering him blind as a bat! He turns and stares down at the table...

Despayre: I do apologize. I didn't see you there.

He then takes his spot in front of the table where Fenris sits behind.

Despayre: Point number one your Honor, professional wrestling is a sport. A sport where people get hurt every day. In and out of the ring. People punch and kick each other. They hit each other with their favorite moves, sometimes even more than once! They even get hit with weapons like tables and ladders and chairs - OH MY!

He gives his client a knowing look.

Despayre: And you wonder why I got out of the biz?

He then moves on to continue.

Despayre: Can the opposing council tell us how a wrestler is expected to win a match without doling out some punishment? Pain is a part of the biz. Sad but true! You can't win without hurting your opponent at least a LITTLE bit! All my client did was kick that big weenie sitting over there...

Vinnie jumps to his feet!

Senor Vinnie: OBJECTION!

Despayre: SIT DOWN!!

Vinnie drops into his seat, but then frowns and turns to Despayre.

Senor Vinnie: Why am I listening to you?

But Despayre opts to continue with pleading his case.

Despayre: Now if this case were to have merit, it wouldn't be a lawsuit against my client. Since it wasn't my client's fault he got booked in the match in the first place. If the prostitution wanted to get a case with some meat to it, he'd file a suit against SCW since YOU GUYS booked the match!

Vinnie looks at Junior while Christian fidgets uncomfortably.

Christian: Erm, is there a point to this, Despayre?

Despayre: Duh! The point is ... a cactus is a plant and a plant can't file a lawsuit in a court! Case closed!

Christian: I get to say that!

Despayre: Oh -- then I rest my case.

Despayre skips around the table, only bumping into it once. He has a seat and picks his cotton candy back up...

Senor Vinnie looks in awe at the former wrestler who gives his view on the whole situation before turning to Junior.

Senor Vinnie: Isn't this his bedtime for this child???

Despayre: I heard that!!!

Despayre sticks his tongue out at Vinnie. Vinnie sticks his tongue out at Despayre. Despayre gasps and points at him while looking to Christian the judge.

Despayre: Did you see that!? How rude!

Christian pounds the gavel and rubs his temples.

Christian: In don't have time for this sh-...Okay, I am not wasting any more time with this. I have reached a decision and its...

Despayre raises his hand.

Despayre: Your honor?

Christian: WHAT!?

Despayre: Before this case started, my dad wanted me to remind you he still has the video of a train wreck you and he and Scotty were involved in?

He frowns.

Despayre: Whatever that means....

Christian stares wide-eyed at Despayre who is trying to decipher his own dad's words when Christian pounds the gavel.

Christian: My judgement is for the defense! And we will never speak of that again!

Vinnie is on his feet, eyes as wide as his mouth as Christian rushes past him to leave the "court room"! Despayre smiles in a very self satisfied way and turns to Vinnie and Junior...

Despayre: PTTTHHHH!!!!




The camera cuts backstage to where Hot Stuff Mark Ward sits at his desk. In front of him sit a glass of champagne. Hot Stuff looks directly down the camera.

HS: It's that time of the year that most people sit and reflect on what they've done, who they've become, who they want to be in the next year and to be honest, I'm no different, especially when it comes to business. I look at SCW every year and think about where it's come from, where it's going. At the start of the year, we had what we thought was our last ever show. It turned out to be a well deserved break. A couple of months off every seven years is not a bad thing, trust me.

Hot Stuff can't help but smile.

HS: It was needed and when we came back, we knew it was gonna be tough to capture past glories, to capture the form we had before yet somehow, I sit here in front of you on our last show of the year with the strongest roster we've had in a long time, with the fans backing us all the way and 2019 looking to be a huge year for Sin City Wrestling and Sin City Underground. This year was just putting the pieces back together, next year is going to be one of the biggest and best in our history, you can take my word for that.

Hot Stuff lifts the glass of champagne.

HS: So as we say goodbye to 2018, I wanna thank each and every person that has pulled on the boots for us, that have gone above and beyond by being here when they don't have to just to talk to the fans, to every member of staff that has worked tirelessly to give you the best shows possible. This is a team effort and from wrestlers to staff, we have the best team we can hope for and more importantly, to the fans. Without the fans, this wouldn't be worth doing, so I thank you all.

Hot Stuff raises his glass.

HS: So from myself, from Christian Underwood, from Brooke Saxon, From Tad Ezra at SCU, our wrestlers, our on screen staff and our off screen staff, we'd like to thank you all for keeping Sin City Wrestling and Underground going strong and wish you all a very happy holidays and a safe new year.

Hot Stuff takes a sip of the champagne as the camera cuts somewhere else.




The scene opens backstage at the Christmas Special edition of Climax Control where it's time to decide the next match to be taken place, this time it's a tag team match between Cat Riley and the reigning SCW Bombshell Roulette Champion Sam Marlowe and the debuting Mercedes Lewis and Crystal Millar and all four Bombshells are present for the wheel spinning.

Simone: We've seen several unusual match types already, but a tag tam match could cause all kinds of mayhem depending on what the wheel stops on!

Adams: I can't wait!

Ms. Rocky Mountains: Ready ladies?

All four women nod in response and the wheel gets spun, after a few rotations the wheel starts to slow down before eventually stopping on a stip that causes them all to take double takes.

Ms. Rocky Mountains: A Christmas Stocking Match! You essentially must wrestle blindfolded.

All four women share uneasy looks but make their way to the gorilla position regardless.




Simone: Welcome back to Climax Control and this next match will have the blind leading the blind as Mercedes Lewis and Crystal Millar team up against Cat Riley and Sam Marlowe in a Tag Team Christmas Stocking Match!

Adams: They must wrestle Blindfolded! This is going to be good!

Simone: Well, maybe not for the women, let's take it to Justin!

Justin: The following Tag Team Contest is scheduled for one fall! And thanks to a spin of a wheel. It'll be a Christmas Stocking Match! The wrestlers will compete blindfolded!

The lights go completely out leaving the entire audience in suspense as the song "One for the money" By Escape the Fate hits the speakers. The fans instantly know exactly who's coming out to the ring. Suddenly a single spotlight hits the stage and standing there in a spiked jacket with the hood pulled up over her head happens to be the self-proclaimed Scream Queen. She smirks out peering from under the hood looking out at all the faces before she begins to make her way down the rampway.

Justin: Introducing first, making her SCW debut, from Virginia Beach, Virginia, Mercedes Lewis!

As soon as she reaches the ramp, she turns sideways and skips down the steel ramp ignoring all the fans attempting to reach out to her. The black haired beauty chuckles as she finally reaches the end of the ramp and walks up the steel steps along the side of the ring. She stops at the middle of the ropes and looks out at the crowd before tossing her head back removing the hood and letting out a scream before finally climbing into the ring through the middle and bottom ring rope. Mercedes makes her way towards the side turnbuckle and easily pulls herself up to sit on the top one crossing her legs and proceeds to wait on her opponent to make their appearance.

Simone: Mercedes is looking to make her mark in her SCW debut!

Adams: At least she isn't taking on Mercedes Vargas, that would get confusing quickly!

Justin: And her partner!

Meganerd by YTcracker begins to blast across the speakers as it does so Christina Rose makes her way from the back curtain with her fianc�e Seleana Zdunich. Christina smiles as she blows kisses to the crowd as she makes her way down to the ring.

Justin: Being accompanied by Seleana Zdunich, from Los Angelis, California, Chrystal Millar!

She slaps the outstretched hands of all the roaring fans. She quickly slides into the ring and kips up to her feet as she waves her hands in the air getting the crowd behind her. She jumps around a bit as she tosses her eye glasses to her fianc�e. Seleana smiles as she catches them as she claps for her future wife.

Simone: I'm glad Seleana is looking better after the Handicap Match last week.

Adams: No kidding, she went through a warzone last week!

Justin: And their opponents!

Plumes of smoke billow forth into the arena as the opening guitar riff of "Back in the game" by Airbourne slices through opposing speakers. The jumbotron flickers to life with hazy images of a pair of grapplers facing off in the ring, spectators shrieking and gesturing in excitement. The silhouettes onscreen continue to grapple for position, the pair slowly coming into focus revealing the duo as two women locked in gladiatorial embrace. One takes a step back on the mat, strands of long blonde hair draping over sinewy shoulders as the fair skinned vituperator signals her opponent to come after her with a single finger. The other woman quickly obliges by rushing in to attempt a side kick, but her leg is caught mid-flight at the ankle by the blonde who twists her body forcing the aggressor to fall chest first to the canvass and allowing her to spin over onto the victim's back securing a da

ling heel hook. The hireling is forced to surrender during which the screen closes in on the perspire face of the victor.

Justin: From Greater Manchester, England, "Cardiac" Cat Riley!

Cat Riley, flanked by Gene's sister Cassie emerges through the smoke at the top of the entrance ramp, Cat's steely blue eyes focused on the ring ahead while stepping into the aisle and her lips twisted into a menacing snarl to match the one sported by her red head co-manager. The simple black, logo-less ball cap facing backwards atop her head is reached for by an overzealous fan that is thwarted by security. Upon reaching the ringside area Cat stops at the base of the steps, her dark eyebrows fluted while she peers between the ropes towards her snickering manager who busies himself pandering to the fans lining the railing. With a deep breath, Cat reaches up to pull off her hat followed by the tattered black and white over shirt revealing a black sports bra with a white puma logo commanding the center. Dropping the shirt and hat into Cassie's outstretched hands she then steps underneath the middle rope entering the ring. The onslaught of the overhead lights prompts the arrival to wipe the sweat from her brow and rub her hands against the fabric of tight grey leggings before bending over to adjust the laces of her black and white sneakers and then raising her right arm in acknowledgement to the crowd.

Simone: Cat has been impressive since her debut, but she has yet to hold a title.

Adams: I see that ending very soon!

"Invincible by Hedley begins to play as a familiar redhead walks out onto the stage of the show where she stops and looks over the crowds who begin to chant her name as Justin brings the microphone to his lips.

Justin: Introducing from Houston Texas, she has been known as SCW's sweetheart and is the reigning SCW Bombshell Roulette Champion, she is Sam Marlowe!

Sam raises her arms as she is introduced. Heading to the ring, she plays to the fans, slapping hands and posing with others. Finally, she climbs the stairs to the ring apron and lays herself across the middle rope and blows a kiss to the camera and then rolls inside the ring. Walking towards the corner, she unzips her short jacket and pulls it off. Handing it to ringside staff, she turns and begins stretching out for the match as she watches her opponent.

Simone: Sam is looking to build momentum going into Inception III!

Adams: As are most of the champions in SCW!

Once Jacob goes over the rules with them, he hands each Bombshell a stocking cap each, Sam, Cat and Mercedes put there caps on without assistance, but Seleana insists in helping Crystal and once they are blindfolded Jacob calls for the bell.

DING DING DING!

Adams: That's probably the only time Seleana has helped Crystal put clothes on rather than take them off.......

Simone: KEEP IT CLEAN JASON!

The opening moments of the match are as awkward as you'd expect with the legal women, namely Cat and Crystal, feeling around in order to try to find their opponent, after a few seconds they find each other and lock up in the middle of the ring before Cat manages to hit an arm-drag on Crystal before going for a dropkick, however it misses by a county mile because of the blindfold and Crystal uses the sound of Cat hitting the matt to guide her into the first cover of the match.

ONE!

TWO!

And Cat kicks out!

Simone: I would normally say "expect high octane action in this match" given the talent involved but all four women are hampered by the stocking caps.

Adams: I always thought I'd be a lot more excited about Bombshells wrestling in stockings but then again, my idea wasn't that they'd wear it over their heads!

Simone: What did I just say about keeping it clean?!

Both Cat and Crystal get back to their feet slowly due to the caps over their eyes and are once again feeling around for any sign of their opponent, eventually Cat feels someone near her and instinctively goes for a School Girl Roll-Up on that person, except it's not Crystal, or any of the wrestlers in the match for that matter.

Jacob: CAT! YOU ROLLED ME UP!

Simone: Such a shame that the Year End Awards have been given out already because that deserves an award on its own!

Adams: Your right, I never thought I'd see the ref get rolled up!

Cat quickly lets go of Jacob once she realizes her mistake but Crystal has used the sound of Jacob's voice as a guide to where her opponent is as she pounces on Cat with rights and lefts barely giving Jacob any time to get out of the way as she pulls Cat up to her feet, however Cat has now recovered and has enough where withal to drop Crystal with a DDT in the middle of the ring, it takes her a few seconds because of the stocking but Cat is able to go for a pin on Crystal!

ONE!

TWO!

And Crystal gets the shoulder up! Both women get to their feet slowly and, once they realize how close they are to each other, start brawling in the middle of the ring and whilst some punches miss due to their lack of site enough hit for this to be an intense brawl regardless, Cat manages to back Crystal to the ropes where she whips her to the opposite ropes, both women go for a cross body but miss by a mile due to the lack of site and stay down.

Simone: Wait a minute, did Crystal and Cat manage to knock themselves out by Cross Bodying the air?!

Adams: I've heard of fighting climate change but that's ridiculous!

Even Seleana on the outside can't help but face-palm hard at her wife's mistake whilst a bemused Jacob starts the count, Sam and Mercedes start calling for themselves to be tagged in and after a few seconds Cat and Crystal start crawling towards what they think is their respective corners, key word being think.

Simone: I know this is a stupid question but for Christ's Sake! Do they even realize that Crystal is about to tag in Sam and Cat is about to tag in Mercedes!?

Adams: We do often boast about Climax Controls being nights of firsts, and this is a first!

By the time Jacob realizes that Cat and Crystal are going towards the wrong corner it's too late as Sam is tagged in by Crystal (thinking that it's Cat) and Mercedes is tagged in by Cat (see Sam) and the two women charge at each other only to start brawling with the air due to their lack of site, after a few seconds they back into each other and the real brawl begins as Sam and Mercedes start exchanging rights and lefts, after a few seconds Cat and Crystal, in search of their corners, back into their respective tag team partners and start brawling with them because of course they do.

Simone: I would like to remind everyone that, despite appearances, Cat is teaming with Sam and Crystal is teaming with Mercedes.

Adams: I think Jacob's just given up on trying to keep track of this thing.

Indeed Jacob is just sitting back and watching the chaos unfold between the four women and after a few seconds Sam breaks away from Cat and Crystal does the same with Mercedes once they realize their mistakes and start brawling with their real opponents, however despite the confusing nature of the earlier tag the legal women are Mercedes and Sam and when Sam (somehow) manages to hit a Hurricarana on Mercedes without seriously injuring herself or Mercedes and holds on for the cover.

ONE!

TWO!

And Mercedes kicks out! And where were their partners in all this? Brawling and at once point Crystal manages to clothesline Cat over the ropes and too the outside and goes for a suicide dive.......across the ring from where Cat is.

Simone: I'm not sure what would be more painful for Seleana to watch, last week's handicap match or Crystal's mistakes in this match!

Adams: I'd say both!

Jacob is laughing at the chaos around him at this point (whilst Seleana is thankful that Crystal landed on her back and not her head) and the brawl between Sam and Mercedes is still going strong, well as strong as it can with both participants blindfolded, but when Jacob pokes his head through the ropes to check if Crystal's okay Mercedes kicks Sam in the stomach and lifts up her blindfold to figure out her next move and upon seeing that Sam is prone, pulls the blindfold back down and calls for her finisher but not before she rolls up Sam to cover up her cheating.

ONE!

TWO!

And Sam kicks out!

Simone: Mercedes just cheated and is looking to end it!

Adams: Real question is, can she execute the Downward Spiral!?

Mercedes gets Sam's head into position for the move, but Sam manages to slip out of it and, through what can only be described as a miracle, manages to lock in the Sammi-Wrap on Mercedes.

Simone: The Sammi-Wrap! I was half expecting Sam to lock it in on Cat at the rate they were going but the Sammi-Wrap is locked in!

Adams: Stick a fork in Mercedes, she's done!

Crystal can hear her partner crying in pain but can't locate her for obvious reasons, after a few seconds Mercedes has no choice but to tap.

DING DING DING!

Justin: Here are your winners by submission, Sam Marlowe and Cat Riley!

Simone: That was........unique.

Adams: You can say that again!

Now that they can remove the caps Cat and Sam celebrate whilst Crystal roars in frustration.




The scene opens backstage at Climax Control where we see Caleb Storms watching the end of the tag team match between Sam Marlowe and Cat Riley and Crystal Millar and Mercedes Lewis, he shakes his head at the antics before seeing the camera and grabbing a piece of paper next to him.

Caleb: Well, after last week I've been banned from singing Christmas Carols by Katie under threat of sleeping on the couch for the whole year, that said I have come up with an alternative.

Caleb says before clearing his throat.

Caleb: Twas the night before Climax Control, and all through the arena
Only one creature was stirring, was it Sam Marlowe? It couldn't have been her!
Championships were hung from the shoulders of champions with care
In hopes that they will be remembered for having more than one defense during their reign, hey there!
The wrestlers were nestled and snug in their beds
While visions of J2H actually being relevant danced in their heads
But I heard him exclaim, ere drove out of site
If Jessie mocks my nose again, she'll be in for a fright.

Caleb grins sheepishly.

Caleb: Err, I threw that together in like five minutes. I originally wanted to do each line from the poem but then I realized how damn long it was.

Caleb walks off as the scene fades.




EMF's "Unbelievable" suddenly blares across the stadium's sound system and the crowd ignites, standing on their feet and booing while all eyes turn to the stage atop the entrance aisle! Christian Underwood steps out onto the stage and is immediately greeted with louder boos and jeers by the capacity crowd as he rolls his eyes and shakes his head. Clad in a white business suit and violet undershirt, Christian stares ahead at the ring before he starts down towards the ring, ignoring the outstretched hands along the way! Arriving at the ringside area, Christian looks out around at the fans who are booing for his appearance and openly scoffs.

Simone: We know Christian was not happy about Seleana Zdunich making it out of her match with the Metal Maniacs relatively unscathed. We've heard whispers about a Plan B... perhaps this is it?

Adams: Or maybe Christian is out here to congratulate Seleana on her win instead?

Simone: That would be too much of a Christmas miracle to be believable.

Christian smirks briefly before he then climbs up the steps and once on the ring apron, he pauses to look out to the fans before he turns his back and moves his backside to the music. He then steps through the ropes and gestures toward the corner. Justin Decent is immediately on his feet, offering the boss a house microphone. Christian snatches it away from him and takes center stage and begins to address the crowd.

Christian: So, some of you are probably expecting me to address Jessie Salco and that terribly unoriginal gag gift she gave me last week and what happened to her this week, but I'd rather not waste the airtime on someone who can't draw ratings. So instead, I'm going to talk about me, talking about someone.

He smiles as the fans react negatively.

Christian: Last week when I saw Seleana managed to make it past Iron Maiden and Twisted Sister, I have to admit that I was surprised. I had her resting plot and a tombstone all ready for Sel. It was grand. It read; Seleana Zdunich, We Are Richer For Having Lost Her!

Boos!

Simone: How tasteless!

Christian: And thanks to her win, that means I wasted all of that money but not to worry! I plan to take it out of her wages since it's her fault. But never fear, my loyal fans! For I am not one to give up easily. Before that match was even over, I was already thinking. Planning for just such emergencies! A Plan B, if you will...

As Christian stands in the ring, yet again, smirking as only he can, the screen lights up and we are treated to an old school movie countdown image that makes Christian nod, apparently quite pleased that this is happening.

Suddenly the countdown is stopped by claws slashing through the image and a cat's roar sounds through the arena. Janet Jackson's "Black Cat" blasts over the speakers and Seleana "The Cat" Zdunich walks through the entryway. Christian continues to nod his head, amusement clearly shining through every orifice of his body as Seleana makes her way to the ring and joins him there. Christian starts to speak but, as before, Seleana cuts him off.

Seleana Zdunich: Du har inte l�rt dig n�gonting!

She leans in, angry and defiant.

Seleana Zdunich: NOTHING!! You stack odds against me, ban my family from building and send two violent raving lunatics at me with no rules. They have help and try to end me, bring out fire table while you pretend to have some kind of authority over everything as if respect should be handed to you and what did it get you?

Her head cocks to the left as she continues to glare at him.

Seleana Zdunich: All of your money, all of your power, all of your plans and what did your plan accomplish?

Seleana's eyes bore holes through Christian as he stands there both pleased to see this and yet annoyed at the disrespect being shown him.

Seleana Zdunich: Nothing!

She points accusingly at him.

Seleana Zdunich: Your face is still broken, I am still here and I survive!

Seleana's hand lowers as the crowd cheers her on.

Seleana Zdunich: Now you promise a Plan B for Inception? What do you have now? You go pick someone that will fight for your money or what you can do for them? You find mercenary? You find someone else to do your dirty work for you?

She steps up close to him, almost touching him but stopping just short of physical contact.

Seleana Zdunich: F�r fan i helvete! Din j�vla skiten! Du har ingen styrka!

They glare into each other's eyes in deadly silence as the crowd cheers her on again.

Seleana Zdunich: Knowing you, there probably is no Plan B, but if there is, I will face whatever you put in front of me! There is no one you can throw out that will succeed in your plan! So give me whoever you have at Inception III, if there even is someone for Plan B!

Simone: Wait -- WAIT!

Adams: Who--!?

A mystery woman in a feathered mask and styled hair reminiscent to Marie Antoinette, rolls into the ring behind Seleana who doesn't notice her in her tirade! Not until it's too late! Christian smiles -- and Seleana turns around -- and the woman brings a hand mirror down right into Seleana's face! The mirror shatters and Seleana hits the mat, holding her face as a trickle of blood can be seen squeezing its way through and past her fingers!

Simone: What the hell ... who IS that!?

Adams: She ... she looks familiar behind that mask....

Christian steps back and sweeps an arm out to the woman toward Seleana in a gesture of "Go right ahead...! The woman reaches down and grabs a handful of Seleana's blonde locks, now stained crimson thanks to the gash in her hairline! She tucks her head between her knees and reached around her waist. The attacker then lifts Seleana up for a powerbomb and slams her hard back into the corner! Seleana hits hard and crashes down to the mat as Christian cheers the woman on while the crowd boos deafeningly!

The woman then slowly looks up at Christian, and then out to the crowd! She reaches up and pinches the mask in her fingers and starts to remove it...

Adams: OH MY--

Simone: DELIA! DELIA DARLING!

The crowd boos viciously as Delia simply looks out to them with a nonchalant smile on her lovely face!

Simone: Delia Darling is Plan B!?

Adams: One of the most successful Bombshells in SCW history!

Christian applauds with a bright smile on his face and Delia walks right up to him and the two embrace! The crowd boos as Christian raises her arm and the boos only intensify!

Simone: That is SICK!

"Break Free" kicks up over the sound system and Christian holds the ropes open for Delia to take her leave from the ring, the two of them leaving Seleana down in the ring as paramedics and Crystal Zdunich rush out to help her!

Adams: I guess we know who Seleana's hand picked opponent for Inception III is!

At the stage entrance, Delia and Christian turn around to the jeering crowd and he once again raises her arm!




Trinity is standing next to a Christmas tree in the back as she is holding a mug of hot chocolate. She is looking at how well the backstage is put together. Her eyes narrow a bit when she notices a poster with her face plastered on it. She smirks before looking at the camera.

Trinity: So we have made it to Christmas and once again I'm not on the show. Why? Is it because I haven't won a match since I beat that Syrian bitch. Or is it because I've been talking to Tony Thorn.

Trinity ponders as she takes a sip of her hot chocolate. She leans her head back while chuckling to herself.

Trinity: In 2019, I promise to show the entire world the REAL dragon and no one will forget it. You want bloodshed well I'll give you that and then some. So don't test me or I will burn your ass.

Trinity throws her mug against the wall as hot chocolate drips down it.

Trinity: Enter the Dragon.

Trinity walks off as the camera zooms in on the chocolate covered poster.




Backstage Despayre can be seen running through the halls, his hair tied back, thick rimmed glasses on his face as well as an old brown hat on his with a card sticking out from the top with the word "Press" on it. Despayre turns back to face the camera.

Despayre: Helllooooooooo good people, Joshua Kooky here!

Adams: Joshua Kooky? That dude looks a lot like Despayre!

Simone: It is Despayre.

Adams: Just cause he has the same first name as Despayre, doesn't make it so.

Simone: Idiot.

Despayre: Earlier tonight, we saw something fantabulous, which is like really great Fanta, but we saw two people we haven't seen in so long, not since last night for me, but that feels like so long ago, and I, Joshua Kooky has the first exclusive interview.

Despayre turns the corner to see Gabriel and Odette standing talking to a stagehand. The stagehand walks away as Despayre approaches.

Gabriel: What's up Despy?

Despayre looks confused as he looks at Gabriel.

Despayre: Who is this Despayre gentleman you speak of? I'm sure he is a talented man, who's just ever so slightly cute, but I have no idea who he is.

Odette: Who are you today Joshua?

Despayre smiles at Odette.

Despayre: That's right, I am Joshua Kooky! Worlds best reporter, always first with the scoops because I carry them around with me.

Despayre reaches in to his pocket and pulls out ice cream scoop, proudly showing Gabriel and Odette before tossing it over his shoulder. An "ow!" can be heard off stage.

Odette: That's a lawsuit.

Despayre: I have questions, the fans want answers. First question, how long have you known you was gonna return to SCW to face Casey Williams.

Gabriel: All very spur of the moment. Casey was ours... Well, mine and that Despayre guy's biggest rival for so long. When I heard he was looking for an opponent, I thought why not.

Despayre: He would be your biggest rival, have you seen the size of him? He's huge!

Gabriel and Odette share a laugh.

Despayre: Why didn't you tell me you was coming back? I mean no me, ummm, Despayre, why didn't you tell Despayre?

Odette: How do you know we didn't? I mean you haven't asked him, have you?

Despayre scratches his head, falling for Odette tying him up with his own persona.

Despayre: You raise a valid point, I mean I can't remember what I had for breakfast today.

Gabriel and Odette look closely at Despayre who brushes over things.

Despayre: Thirdly, what should I get dad for Christmas?

Gabriel: We don't know your dad so can't help you there buddy.

Gabriel taps Despayre on the shoulder.

Gabriel: Right, we've got to go and see if our friend Despayre is hiding around here somewhere.

Odette: Merry Christmas!

Odette plants a kiss on the cheek of "Joshua Kooky" before Gabriel and Odette walk away. Despayre wipes his cheek and looks down the camera.

Despayre: This is Joshua Kooky asking the questions that really matter!

Despayre turns around and looks in the direction of Gabriel and Odette before taking off in their direction.




We return to Ms. Rocky Mountains as she now stands with Fenris and Senor Vinnie, holding Pete the Cactus.

Ms. Rocky Mountains: We're here to see what type of match you will be competing in.

Fenris: We all know how it works, get on with spinning the wheel!

Ms. Rocky Mountains does what she's instructed to do and the three wait. The wheel stops spinning around.

Ms. Rocky Mountains: You will be squaring off in a Santa's Sleigh match! Good luck to you both.

Fenris frowns as Vinnie looks down at Pete the Cactus and nods his head as we switch back to ringside.




Justin: The following contest is your main event of the evening and is for the SCW World Heavyweight championship!

The fans cheer.

Justin: Introducing first, the challenger...

The crowd is in anticipation of the arrival of the next wrestler as the lights go out and a huge cactus emerges upon the Titan Tron. We hear Epic from Metalachi hit the sound system as a big figure emerges in the dark holding a cactus. Running his hand that is covered in a glove over the cactus as if he is worshipping to it.

Justin: Coming down the aisle, standing in at 6'8 and weighing in at 280 pounds!! Hailing from Tijuana, Mexico!! Senor Vinnie!!!!

The spotlight shines upon the man as he looks up towards the ring, mumbling something while walking towards the ring. He places the cactus in the corner before rolling into the ring, there he crawls over towards the center of the ring and stares at the fans at the front row seats. He then slowly walks towards the corner where he had placed his cactus, putting it back into his hands as he starts to talk to it and ignores the music of the next entrant.

Justin: and his opponent....

"If I Had A Heart" by Fever Ray begins to play across the building and the crowd turns with anticipation towards the entrance as "the White Wolf" Fenris emerges from behind the curtains with his younger brother at his side. As Aron looks on, Fenris stands stoically, looking out towards the capacity crowd before dropping to one knee with head bowed. He symbolically crosses his heart and looks 'up' in homage before standing upright and beginning his journey toward the ring with his brother following close behind.

Justin: Making his way toward the ring! Accompanied by Aron Baltasarsson, from Iceland, weighing two hundred and four pounds. He is the SCW World Heavyweight Champion -- Fenris!

Despite the fans that reach out toward him, Fenris does not reciprocate and his attention is solely on the ring, whereas the smiling Aron good naturedly slaps a hand or two that extends toward him. Fenris climbs the ring steps and walks along the apron, turning towards the fans and extends his arms up and begins the 'Viking Clap.' Slowly but surely, despite any potential misgivings towards the young man, many fans join along with him in the Viking Clap. Aron holds the ropes for his brother, and Fenris steps through and continues the clap from one corner to the next, drawing in the energy of the crowd. Joined by Aron, Fenris returns to his own corner and paces like a wolf stalking his prey, kicking off his slippers to compete barefoot as the claps slowly subside.

Adams: This is the rematch we have been waiting for.

Simone: And could change the face of our main event at Inception III.

As the crowd is getting back into their seats, Fenris and Vinnie step out of their corners. They meet in the middle as Jacob holds up the World Championship. The two men are just staring at each other while mouthing inaudible words at each other. Jacob signals for the bell as Vinnie holds up one hand for a possible test of strength.

DING DING DING!

Fenris looks at the hand before striking with an open palm strike to the side of Vinnie's head. Vinnie staggers a little as Fenris strikes with another open palm strike to the chest. Vinnie grabs at his chest as Fenris lands a vicious knee to the gut. Vinnie keels over as Fenris grabs Vinnie by the head and drops him with a DDT.

Simone: Vinnie was looking for a test of strength but Fenris beat him to the punch

Adams: Fenris is looking good right now.

Fenris keeps control of Vinnie's head as he repeatedly slams multiple knees in different areas. Fenris then gets back up to his feet while bouncing off the ropes. He comes off them and strikes with a sliding knee to the side of Vinnie's skull. Vinnie holds his head as Fenris grabs Vinnie's arm and twists behind his back. Vinnie is writhing in pain as Fenris pulls the arm up even further. Jacob checks on Vinnie but doesn't ask him anything.

Fenris uses the arm to lift Vinnie up to his feet. He goes to shoot Vinnie off to the ropes but Vinnie reverses it. Fenris bounces off the ropes as Vinnie catches him with a big boot. Fenris falls on his back as Vinnie follows up with a leaping leg drop. The meaty portion of his leg drops across Fenris' throat as Vinnie returns to his feet. He looks down at him before exiting the ring. He walks up to a Santa bag and opens it up. He pulls out a street sign and slides back into the ring.

Adams: Did someone forget to remove the Santa bags?

Simone: I wonder if Vinnie knows that the sleigh is ready.

Vinnie stands back up to his feet as Fenris is getting back up to his feet. Right as he does so, Vinnie slams the street sign across the back as Fenris staggers forward. Vinnie hits Fenris two more times before slamming the sign across his face. Fenris drops down to the canvas as Vinnie strikes with an elbow drop. Vinnie quickly gets back up to his feet as he picks Fenris up. Vinnie strikes with a couple forearms before hooking Fenris in a front Facelock. Vinnie hoists Fenris up but as he gets vertical. Fenris drops his knee down onto Vinnie's head which causes him to put Fenris down.

Once Fenris is down, he starts hitting Vinnie with multiple open palm strikes before capping them off with a spinning roundhouse kick. The kick knocks Vinnie over the top rope. Vinnie uses the ring apron to pull himself up but Fenris comes sliding into him with a baseball slide. Vinnie falls forward as Fenris grabs him by the head and slams him chest first into the barricade.

As Vinnie grabs his chest, Fenris bends down to pick up a cookie sheet and brings it down across Vinnie's back. Vinnie bows back as Fenris strikes again with the sheet. Vinnie grabs the apron as Fenris slams the sheet right into his face. Vinnie falls onto his knee as Fenris digs through the Santa bag.

He pulls out a teddy bear which causes Fenris to raise an eyebrow.

Adams: Fenris looks confused quite frankly I'm confused too.

Simone: I hope Despy isn't watching this match.

As Fenris continues to look at the teddy bear, Vinnie comes up behind, wraps his arms around and throws him over his head. Fenris lands hard on his back as Vinnie follows up with a low boot to Fenris's head. Fenris grabs at his head as Vinnie grabs a handful of Fenris's hair and pulls him up to his feet. Vinnie then drags him around the ringside area, he drapes Fenris's arm over his shoulder before lifting him up and dropping him chest first over the barricade.

Fenris falls down to one knee as Vinnie repeatedly stomps Fenris into a mudhole. Vinnie walks away before running at Fenris before slamming his knee into his face. Vinnie smirks while walking towards the center of the ring apron. He kneels down, lifts the apron up and pulls out a Christmas Wreath. He looks at the wreath with a sinister grin as he turns back towards Fenris. Vinnie raises the wreath up but Fenris kicks him in the gut. Vinnie keels over while picking up the wreath. Fenris places the wreath around Vinnie's neck and flings him into the barricade.

Vinnie grabs his lower back as Fenris picks him up and drives him face first into the steel ring post. Fenris walks around the ring and opens up another Santa bag. He pulls out a tire iron as Fenris shrugs his shoulders. Vinnie slowly starts getting up to his feet as blood is starting to pour out of his forehead.

Simone: Vinnie is busted open.

Adams: That's horrible but what is Fenris going to do with that tire iron.

Vinnie is standing up as Fenris comes charging at him while swinging the tire iron. Vinnie ducks as Fenris stumbles forward a bit. Fenris turns around as Vinnie drops him with a hard right. Vinnie shakes his head while grabbing the wreath. He places it around Fenris's neck and proceeds to drag him across the floor. He gets Fenris near the ramp and picks him up. Vinnie looks Fenris in the eyes before tossing him up the ramp.

Fenris bounces off the steel grates as Vinnie walks up to him. Fenris is trying to get to one knee but Vinnie knocks him back down with another strong boot. Vinnie grabs the wreath and drags Fenris over towards the sleigh. Vinnie picks Fenris back up and grabs him by the arm. Vinnie goes to whip him but pulls Fenris back while hitting a back body drop. Fenris lands hard on his back as Vinnie looks over the sleigh.

Simone: Vinnie is sizing up the sleigh.

Adams: Who is going to pull the sleigh out of here?

Simone: That's a great question.

Vinnie seems pleased with the sleigh as he walks back over towards Fenris. He picks him up and leads him over towards the sleigh. Vinnie tries to pick Fenris up but gets a sharp elbow to his ribs as a response. Vinnie grimaces in pain as Fenris slams him face first into the sleigh. As Vinnie stumbles, Fenris grabs a thermos full of eggnog out of the sleigh. He slams the thermos up against Vinnie's head while twisting the top off.

Vinnie nearly stands up as Fenris strikes with a hard kick. Fenris takes a long swig off the eggnog as Vinnie pulls himself up. As he does, Fenris spews eggnog into Vinnie's face. Vinnie staggers as Fenris strikes with a sharp clothesline. Fenris takes a minute to pump up the crowd while searching the sleigh for something. He pulls out a toy nutcracker as the crowd is goes crazy. He holds the toy in his hand as Vinnie stands back up. Fenris walks over toward him and raises the toy up. He goes to strike but Vinnie catches him with another hard right. Fenris staggers as Vinnie strikes with a left.

Fenris staggers even more as Vinnie tries to clothesline him into the sleigh. As he does, Fenris sticks his leg out and keeps himself from going inside the sleigh. Vinnie tries to throw him inside but Fenris continues to hold himself. He punches Vinnie in the stomach while pulling out a white China plate. He puts his leg back down and breaks the plate over Vinnie's head. Fenris grabs Vinnie by the head but gets a face full of fake snow. Fenris tries to clean his eyes as Vinnie charges at him.

Vinnie continues to throw rights and lefts into Fenris's sternum. Vinnie tries to toss Fenris back into the sleigh but gets stopped. Fenris puts his foot against the side before driving his elbow into Vinnie's ribs again.

Simone: Who will get put in the sleigh?

Fenris tries to strike with a right hand but Vinnie slams the edge of an elf shoe into Fenris's gut. Vinnie strikes with the shoe again before hitting a standing Russian Legsweep. Fenris slides down the sleigh as Vinnie backs up a little. He looks around while seeing a pile of presents. He walks back toward Fenris and grabs him by the arm. Vinnie shoots Fenris into the pile of presents. Fenris struggles to get back up but Vinnie hits him in the back with a clothesline. Fenris falls forward as Vinnie spins him around and grabs him by the hand.

Vinnie shoots him back towards the sleigh. Fenris hits hard as Vinnie comes charging at him. Fenris manages to use Vinnie's momentum against him by catching him with a back body drop into the sleigh. Thinking on his feet, Fenris grabs a thing of red garland and proceeds to use it to tie Vinnie down. Vinnie tries to fight out of it as Fenris strikes him with a hard forearm. He then slaps the side of the sleigh as it starts moving away.

Jacob calls for the bell as Fenris waves.

DING DING DING!

Justin: here is your winner and still SCW World Champion Fenris

Fenris hoists the belt high into the air as the sleigh slowly glides out of sight.

Adams: Fenris retains in a great match.

Simone: Just don't start singing Santa Claus Lane

Adams: Oh!

Simone: Well that's all we've got time for in 2018. Thank you all for the continued support and we will see you for Inception III.
