The sun is high over Ariake Coliseum in Tokyo, Japan, giving everyone inside, both fan and superstar alike, the unique experience of an exciting wrestling program beneath the open sky. The afternoon glare of the sun is warm and bright as the Japanese crowd waits anxiously for the beginning of this show! The big screen toward the entrance begins showing clips of in-ring action from Sin City Wrestling.
The crowd applauds as ring announcer Justin Decent steps out onto the stage, and is greeted by the applause. The handsome exhibitionist jogs out to the ring, slapping hands to the fans who reach out to him. He is handed the microphone by Jason Adams and he runs up the ring steps and climbs inside of the six-sided SCW ring and walks around, pumping his fist in the air!
Justin then hops up onto the corner turnbuckle and smiles, looking out around at the fans filling the stands. He drops back down and takes his place in the center of the ring and brings the microphone up to his lips.
Justin: Hello everyone and welcome to Tokyo, Japan, and welcome to Sin City Wrestling's 2024 Royal Pain tour!
The crowd cheers!
Justin: Now please help me welcome the Hostess With the Mostess for "Climax Control" -- Miss Amanda Hugginkiss!
The crowd cheers as the lights quickly shut off, and then a brief moment later, a lone spotlight flashes onto the stage, illuminating Amanda in a slinky black Dalmatian print gown and Cruella deVille wig. She takes a puff on from her cigarette holder while snapping her fingers to the beat of the music.
Amanda: Never know how much I want one
Make it pretty
I would lie down on the table
Everybody want a hot twat
It's something that I'm set on doing
Now man listen when I drink too much and I yell
My plastic surgeon outta sign a
That's what this is right at home in the spotlight
Where's my man meat
Why does my vagina burn
Never know how much I'd spend
When I look down into my panties
I wanna see a warm and fuzzy new friend
I want a beaver
So I can keep on the light
Beaver my new kitty
Wet and pink and hopefully tight
Let them cut my right down the front
I cannot wait until I'm able
To slide a penis in and out of my c*nt
I need a beaver
It makes a lady glamorous
But I don't want no ugly front butt
I want a picture perfect puss
And you aint' gonna change my mind
Someday soon my man will be screwing
Me in my new vagina not the behind
Shiny new beaver
BEAVER with low mileage
Breathe in that new car smell
Work of art as fine as this
It's such a great designer vagina
That I feel guilty when I'm taking a piss
I love my beaver
Beaver give it kisses dont'cha worry it doesn't bite
I miss my weiner
What a lousy way to learn
Beaver I kept my receipt
Hope it's not too late to return
Why does my poonanee burn
Why does my new c*nty burn
Why does my cvagona burn
The music ends and the crowd applauds as Amanda gives a coy wink to the crowd and the spotlight turns off, leaving the stage in darkness.
Simone: Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to Climax Control from Japan, I'm Belinda Simone.
Adams: And I'm Jason Adams.
Simone: We got a night planned for you tonight and it kicks off with a debut. Raine makes her SCW debut and she takes on former Bombshell World Champion, Andrea Hernandez.
Adams: Tough start. We also get to see Song in action as she goes one on one against a very dangerous lady, Luna Pasilno!
Simone: Third match of the night sees Austin James Mercer in an SCW ring as a guest referee. Sadly for Austin, its a match between his girlfriend and his best friend as Alicia Lukas takes on Tempest.
Adams: Man's gonna be in someone's doghouse tonight, but moving on. Proving Ground series match. What does that mean? Where does it lead? I don't know, we will get Columbo on the case, but Eddie Lyon's goes on to face Aiden Reynolds, no relation to Deadpool.
Simone: A lot on the line in our mixed tag match as The Barnharts will be going up against Miles Kasey and Alexandra Calaway, the winners will be headlining Climax Control 403 for the Mixed Tag Team championship.
Adams: And in our main event, a special guest referee appears once more, as Amy Santino returns to keep an eye on our Bombshells Roulette championship match as Victoria Lyons defends against Harper Mason.
Simone: All this and more on Climax Control.
Adams: That was shorter then usual, Mark must be pushed for time.
Simone: Huh?
Adams: LET'S GO!
Bad Omens "Artificial Suicide" hits as the Japanese crowd boos loudly in the Ariake Arena. It takes but a couple of seconds before Kayla Richards and Finn Whelan step out, both of them wearing their World Championships around their waists and their Mixed Tag Titles over their shoulders. They make their way down to the ring, barely glancing at the fans who, despite the boos, still reach out to see if they can touch them just as Justin gets ready to announce them.
Justin Decent: Making their way to the ring, the current reigning, defending SCW Mixed Tag Team Champions, the SCW World Bombshells Champion Kayla Richards and the SCW World Heavyweight Champion Finn Whelan…THE WOLVES OF GHEIMHRIDH!!!!!
The crowd lets out another loud boo as Finn seems to not care and Kayla chuckles with an arrogant smile. They've both entered the ring, Finn sliding under the ropes and Kayla through the second and third, just as slowly as possible. As the music and the crowd dies down Kayla hands a mic to Finn and then raises her own to her lips.
Kayla: Why am I not surprised? You people just love to hate anyone who is more successful than you. Unfortunately that's about 90% of the roster. But in the case of myself and Finn, we are so above you, all of you, that you have no choice but to hate us. And it's sad. It is. We have done things in this company that no one else before and after we have accomplished.
But if you listen to a lot of the morons who are sitting in the cheap seats, or who are staying out of the ring because they don't have what it takes any more, Finn and I haven't actually done anything of note.
Kayla turns her head and looks at Finn, who shrugs his shoulders, as if he doesn't know why anything like that could be said.
Kayla: First it was that we weren't a good enough team to become the Tag Team Champions. And then we won the titles. Then we weren't good enough to keep them, and we've kept them longer than anyone. Then it was that we barely defended them. Despite having the most defenses. You see where I'm going with this?
Kayla pauses and moves the microphone away from her lips as the crowd boos heavily again. She shakes her head and throws her arms in the air before continuing.
Kayla: All I keep hearing is how we aren't good enough to do this or aren't good enough to do that…while we continually break records and hold onto not one, but two championships at the same time. And this company has tried to promote that. This company has tried to make the rest of the wrestling world see just how amazing its two top champions are. Mark and Christian have put out press releases telling the world that we are the first in this company to hold two championships at the same time and defend them.
Yet people who aren't even in this company any more or who are just sitting around wasting away are running their mouths about how they held two championships in this company before us. So let me be very clear on this: winning a second championship and having to give one up because you're not good enough to both is not holding two championships. It's failing at holding two championships.
We have held two of the best and biggest singles championships in the professional wrestling world while also being the Mixed Tag Team Champions. We have defended two championships a piece for months and we are the first two to do it. And it's about time we got some goddamn respect.
Kayla lowers the microphone, nods her head affirmatively, and then hikes her championship belt a little stronger on her shoulder. She waits for a moment, and then the crowd begins to boo loudly, to which she sneers at them and rolls her eyes. It takes but a couple of seconds before she realizes they're not particularly booing at her – they're booing at Finn. A few positive reactions can be heard, but Whelan doesn't particularly care. He holds the microphone up to his lips and then hesitates just for a second to bask in the irritation of the SCW fanbase in Japan.
Finn: You know, at first, I felt the same as Kayla. I questioned why in the hell we weren't being treated as glorified as every other champion in this scene – heaven knows that as we walked up the plank, we celebrated our opponents just as much as we picked them apart. Multiple defenses, multiple opportunities for us to put the titles on the line, multiple opportunities for several of the company to come and try to take…
And yet…time and time again, we do what everyone expects not to. Win. Cleanly, most of the time, might I add, so you can't even sit there and say we've cheated our way to the top. We don't pop around into owners' offices and try to make friends to pad our way to the top, and we certainly don't sit in a stable that's positively recognized. It seems like it's a joking point to badmouth Wolfslair, but kind of sucks when we turn around and kick your teeth in regardless. How we continue to rise despite your jibes.
Finn looks at Kayla, who is pursing her lips. She doesn't readily like being recognized as part of the New York-based gym, because she's not. Guilt by association. He reaches out and pats her shoulder, before turning to face a new side of the crowd.
Finn: I know, I know. It sucks when the people you most hate sit at the top of the company you waddled into and thought you were the kings and queens of. There is no royalty here, so you might as well accept your lack of crowns.
Boos arise, but it doesn't seem to bother either of the competitors. He smirks and then waits a couple of seconds. A shift.
Finn: Let's talk about another point…let's talk about Summer XXXtreme, and the results of that cruise. We had a few changes in champions, and despite the valiant efforts of one Luna Paslino in a main event to rock main events…Kayla continues on her reign as your World Bombshells Champion.
Kayla bows deeply as the crowd roars with upset.
Finn: And in my case, I had yet another poorly prepared contender in a man that was carried by his betters into winning a shot that he never should have deserved. Let's look at this honestly. Sean Parker won his championship and then fucked off into the night. There was no mention of SCW even minutely enough to respect the company in which gave him a glorious opportunity to possibly dethrone my championship. There was no conversation about it in any of the eight companies he was a part of.
No, instead, we all got to watch as he failed at felling the XWF World Champion and then he subsequently went on hiatus. A waste of not only my time, but your time. He couldn't even leave the company with parting words of how he was going to succeed and do his best. I waited. I waited for him to say something, to rise up, and to do something so the rest of us could be hyped.
But no. He disappeared and only showed up for his match. And even more of a shit situation arose when Peter Vaughn used his cute little golden briefcase and got involved in my business. A man who is a walking stick of boredom had the audacity to think that he could step up to me and because he surprised me, he thought he had a chance. I don't know if it's the crap company sitting in his veins or whatever, but the fact that the only way that he thought he could win was to jump into my business.
Finn looks directly into the camera, shaking his head side to side slowly as if to say not only "no", but "hell no".
Finn: If there is anything that pisses me off more, it's a snake in the water. And don't you dare sit there and tell me that I am one, because as much as you idiots don't like me, I am upfront, and I speak the truth. I wouldn't piss my way into someone else's match, I wouldn't try to surprise someone else. I have always been the type of competitor that's going to do shit right, and when you choose to be a little bitch? I'll end your career. When you set your challenge, you best do it openly so that I can measure you for what you're worth. Peter Vaughn? Not worth shit.
He turns away and looks at Kayla, who claps with the tips of her fingers in order to hype her man up. Finn smiles again.
Finn: So that leaves both of us without challengers at this time. Don't worry, we'll be watching, waiting, commiserating as we wait for someone to rise above the rest. For Kayla, it could be any one of the Bombshells that she hasn't faced. And for me? Well, I'm left with an open plate. But believe me when I say this: you said that my reign was boring? Fine. You said that the lack of sell was boring? Cool. I'll be here every week reminding every single one of you why I am the top of this company and why I am here. You wrote what you wanted, and here I am to deliver.
He leans on the ropes and looks at the camera directly.
Finn: And tonight, we get to see who will face us for our Mixed Tag Team Champions. Miles Kasey and Alexandra Callaway, or the Barnharts. Whoever wins tonight best be on their "A" game…because Kay and I are in a pissed off mood and we're ready to annihilate either of you as we have before. See you soon, and to the rest of you? Your complaints? You just earned yourselves seeing me every week. Congrats, hope you enjoy. Omae nanka fukou ni nare ba ii.
Finn throws the mic down outside the ring as Kayla chucks it into the ring herself just as Bad Omens "Artificial Suicide" plays again. They exit the ring as cameras cut elsewhere within the arena.
The first match of the night was right around the corner from happening. The excitement and buzz from the japanese crowd could be felt. All of the sudden "Summertime Sadness" hits the venue's soundwaves. Andrea appears on the stage to some strong cheers from the crowd.
Justin: The following contest is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first at this time. From Phoenix, Arizona... ANDREA HERNANDEZ!
Andrea acknowledges the crowd and completely focuses on the task at hand. She gets up to the ring apron and uses the top rope to slingshot herself into it, acknowledging the crowd even further as she leans against the corner, confidently waiting for what comes next.
The arena was filled with a jam-packed audience. Their excitement and buzz could be felt throughout the hold building. About that time there was a shift in the arena's lighting. Replaced with hints of purple, yellow, and white strobe lights. All while the start of "Run Away Girl" by Alice Merton began to pump through the speaker system. This resulted in a little excitement being felt from those in attendance.
Several cheers started to get a little louder. It wasn't but a few seconds later stepping out through the curtain was the one they called Raine. She had a smirk plastered across her lips as she stepped to the center with all eyes on her. Tugging at the ends of her ring jacket while peering out at the cheering crowd. She tossed her hand into the air to pump up the crowd a bit more as she began her journey to the ring.
Justin: And now introducing Andrea's opponent. Making her official Sin City Wrestling debut. Wrestling out of Seattle, Washington. 'The Queen of Self Mutilation' RAINE!
By the time the introduction had finished. Raine was right there at the ringside area. Slapping hands with a couple of fans there at ringside before turning herself towards the ring steps. She jogged right on up them. Taking a small stroll to the middle of the ring apron, Raine then stopped and put her back against the ropes as she peered out at the crowd again.
Her smirk had seemingly only gotten bigger from when she had first walked out. Tossing the hand of hers into the air again to get a reaction. Only for her to swing herself into the ring and quickly head towards the nearest turnbuckle. Climbing it up, she raised that hand into the air and then brought it over to her eyes as if she was creating a shield.
For her to be able to peer out at the people in the audience. This lasted for a few seconds before her theme song started to die down. Raine leaped from the turnbuckle to the ring, slowly starting to remove her ring jacket. Once it was off, she tossed it down in the corner of the ring before bringing her attention up to begin to prepare for the match about to happen.
DING DING DING!
The match was underway resulting in both women coming out of their respective corners. Andrea and Raine locking up in the center of the ring with a tight collar-elbow tie up. For a few seconds there wasn't much of an advantage by either woman. That was until Andrea managed to take over and place Raine in a side headlock in the middle of the ring. Squeezing her arms tightly around the head of the new Bombshell.
It wasn't long before Raine found herself using both of her hands to push up on the arms of Andrea managing to free her head before turning those arms she had up in a situation where she quickly applied a side head lock of her own. Dropping down to one knee with some force and squeezing heard on the head of Andrea clearly trying to showcase that she wasn't going to be someone that was outdone so easily.
Adams: Raine is showing some impressive chain wrestling so far.
Simone: She does have over twelve years of experience in this business Jason. It's not like she's a rookie, but her experience is a bit different from the traditional.
Adams: Anyone that takes part in deathmatch wrestling. I don't really consider them a true wrestler. Raine has a lot to prove here as far as I'm concerned.
Andrea found herself taking her elbow and landing a couple of stiff shots to the kidneys of Raine to weaken that hold she had on her. That moment she felt the grip loosen up Andrea wrapped her arms around the waist of Raine and took them back against the ropes very briefly to shoot Raine off sending her into the ropes.
She hit them with force and came back as Andrea leaped up over her, sending Raine into the ropes a second time. Once Andrea landed on her feet and planted them. She turned around waiting for Raine to come back and attempted a clothesline, but Raine quickly ducked under the arm while catching Andrea by surprise with a BACK SLIDE forcing her shoulders to the mat for a pin. Jacob dropped down to make the count.
Simone: Raine with a surprise backslide on Andrea!
Adams: This isn't going to be enough!
ONE!
ANDREA KICKS OUT RIGHT AWAY!
Adams: Who does this girl think she's kidding? She's facing a former Bombshell World Champion after all.
Simone: Stranger things have happened before. That would have been quite the statement made by Raine!
As soon as Andrea kicked out. She rolled to her feet as Raine scrambled right up to hers. However, no sooner than Raine stood up. Andrea blasted her right in the face with a BUSAIKU KNEE taking the Queen of Self Mutilation right off her feet. Raine laid there holding her face where that knee had quite literally come close to crushing her orbital bone.
Now that Andrea had firm control she showed her veteran status while reaching down and grabbing a hold of the arm of Raine. In a matter of seconds she had an ARMBAR locked in right there in the center of the ring. It left Raine with nowhere to go. Andrea trying to wrench back with all her might on that arm in order to get the woman to tap. Raine found herself only biting down on the knuckle of her free hand refusing to give in so easily.
Adams: Andrea has that armbar locked in deep. Raine is trapped and doesn't really have anywhere to go with her being right there in the middle of the ring. This might end early.
Simone: I don't know how good Raine's submission defense is. I wasn't able to get a deep dive on that before tonight's match, but again it has to go hand in hand with just being able to take pain as it's dished out. She's a professional at that.
Raine could be seen starting to twist her body about as she brought her leg up and managed to wrap it around the head as well as the neck of Andrea. With a quick movement of those hips she was able to break free of the armbar as she wrapped both of her legs around Andrea's head now while holding her arm and locking in a tight grip for the TRIANGLE CHOKE right there in the middle of the ring. Andrea could be seen panicking as she tried to pull herself free from the submission hold.
But the more and more that she panicked. The tighter that Raine was able to secure her legs around her head while pulling that arm in a little deeper to keep her right where she had her. In a last ditch effort to break the hold. Andrea began to lift Raine up with that one arm showing impressive strength, but she didn't get her up off the mat far before driving her down to the mat with force. Raine's head smacking against the back of the mat forcing her to break the hold.
Simone: Andrea got a little desperate there, but she found a way out of the situation!
Adams: Desperate? Excuse me?! I wouldn't call that desperate by any means Belinda. She was simply using her surroundings to her advantage.
Simone: I think Andrea knew she was in trouble, but it's neither here nor there. She got out of the submission and the match continues.
Andrea backed up a little bit, shaking her arm out. Raine found herself rolling to her knees and then shooting up to her feet. Right away she grabbed the wrist of Andrea and spun her around going for a right hand, but it was quickly blocked by Andrea. She then landed a stiff forearm shot to the woman's jaw causing Raine to stumble back towards the corner. Andrea followed as she connected with a second forearm to the jaw causing Raine to finish calling into the turnbuckle. She leaned there as Andrea took a couple of steps backwards before turning and rushing towards Raine while throwing herself into a flip before connecting with a picture perfect HANDSPRING BACK ELBOW to the chest of Raine.
Simone: I have to give it to Andrea. She's got one of the best Handspring Back Elbows in the game. She just makes it look effortless.
Adams: That's because Andrea is one of the best female wrestlers to exist in today's world. She's on a redemption tour right now. She's going to show up and show out every chance she gets!
Andrea had taken a few steps away from Raine before turning around. Taking notice of Raine stumbling out of the corner clearly stunned from that elbow. Andrea rushes in and quickly takes the woman off her feet with a FLOAT OVER DDT in the middle of the ring. No sooner than she caused Raine to spike her head off the mat. She rolled the woman over to make the cover. Jacob sliding down to his knees to do his job.
ONE!
TWO!
STRONG KICK OUT FROM RAINE!
Adams: I'm a little surprised here. I thought that might've been enough to secure Andrea the win.
Simone: Tonight is Raine's debut. I don't see the woman going down without a fight.
Adams: No, but Andrea is in firm control here. She's laying it on heavy with those strikes. Not very many people are able to keep fighting in a situation like that.
Simone: And this is where Raine's background is going to come into play. This might not be a deathmatch, but Raine's tolerance for pain is going to shine through.
Andrea sat there nodding her head a little bit. By the time she started to get to her feet she turned to see that Raine rolled out of the ring and dropped to her knees on the outside. Andrea let a smirk cross her lips as it appeared she had something in mind. Raine grabbed the steel barricade and pulled herself up to her feet before turning around.
Andrea had sprinted across the ring and was mid dive through the ropes for a SOMERSAULT SUICIDE DIV-NOOOO! Raine was able to counter by scooping Andrea onto her shoulders mid-dive as she quickly turned around and then flipped Andrea off her shoulders driving her into the unforgiving floor of the arena with "RAINEY DAYS" as the sick thud of Andrea's body hitting the floor could be heard. Raine sat there looking down at Andrea before her with her own smirk starting to form.
Simone: Goodness gracious! I hope Andrea's neck and lower back is alright. That sounded nasty!
Adams: That shouldn't have been allowed. She could have caused a serious injury to Andrea. The floors of our arenas aren't meant for the action to be taking place on them.
Simone: Yet every single week the fight spills to the outside in numerous matches.
Adams: Well it shouldn't! Keep the action in the ring. Our officials need to do a better job with enforcing the rules!
By this time Raine had gotten up to her feet as she grabbed a hold of Andrea by her head and tights pulling her up long enough to toss her into the ring from under the bottom rope. Raine then pulled herself on to the apron and took a look at the prone position Andrea was in. She pulled the top rope down and used it to springboard off it coming down to land "MAKE IT RAIN" on top of Andrea in the middle of the ring. As soon as she connected the high flying move, Raine turned herself over and hooked both the legs for a pin attempt.
ONE!
Simone: What an innovative move from Raine!
TWO!
Adams: I'll give it to Raine. That was pretty cool to see her soar through the air like that!
TH-NO!
KICK OUT FROM ANDREA!
Simone: Andrea is still in this thing!
Andrea had rolled herself over away from Raine. Raine got up to her feet as she turned around and rushed Andrea who was using the ropes to stand up connecting with a SUPERKICK to the jaw of Andrea. The stiff kick sent Andrea flying over the top rope, but the former champion grabbed the ropes to prevent herself from falling to the floor on the outside. Andrea tried to shake the cobwebs loose after the kick by pulling herself up on the apron.
Raine took notice and charged in again. However it was Andrea that had it scouted as she caught Raine with a SHOULDER TO THE GUT to cut her off. Raine quickly held her midsection and stumbled away from the ropes. Andrea saw the perfect opening for what she wanted to do as it was her turn to use the ropes to her advantage. Springing off the top rope and into the ring to catch Raine from behind with a SPRINGBOARD BULLDOG driving Raine's head down into the mat.
With Raine's head bouncing off the mat she flung to lay on her back. The perfect position as Andrea crawled over and tossed herself over the top of Raine to make the cover.
Adams: Andrea just sealed Raine's fate with that bulldog! My god what a beautiful sight that was!
ONE!
Simone: Raine was rolling and had all the momentum in her favor. Then within the blink of an eye Andrea took all the wind out of her sail!
TWO!
Adams: Raine had an impressive debut, but like we said from the gate. This is a different world she's competing in.
THR-NOOO!
RAINE POPS HER SHOULDER UP!
Simone: No! It's not over at all! Raine still has some fight left in her.
Adams: That is going to turn out to be a mistake. Andrea is going to make her pay for that.
The crowd found themselves coming more alive witnessing these two women put it all on the line in the opening contest of the night. Andrea was quick to start trying to pull herself up to her feet knowing she had to keep the pressure on. Raine was doing her best to get to her feet as well. Nearly at the same time both ladies got to a vertical basis as Andrea connected with a forearm to Raine's jaw. However Raine came right back with a forearm smash of her own.
Andrea was rocked briefly but came back with a huge forearm. This rocked Raine all the way back as she bounced off the ropes and then completely blasted Andrea with a ROARING ELBOW right to the tip of her jaw. It was so stiff it rolled the woman's eyes back and dropped her down to her knees. Raine turned and went running towards the ropes. She hit them with force and came back going for a KNEE LI-NO! Andrea sidestepped the knee and grabbed Raine from behind rolling her up.
ONE!
TWO!
THRE-NOOOOOO!
RAINE KICKED OUT AGAIN!
Andrea realized that things were going to come down to the wire now as she rushed to her feet. By then it was too late as Raine was up first and leaped into the air catching her with a leaping KNEE LIFT to the face which brought Andrea back down to her knees. In a rushing situation Raine ran to the nearest corner and hopped to the second turnbuckle. Andrea was already getting up as Raine leaped into the air and caught Andrea by floating over her.
Slamming the woman down into the mat with a picture perfect looking BLOCKBUSTER in the center of the ring. That seemed to be all that Raine had left in the tank as she laid there just a few inches away from Andrea looking completely gassed.
Simone: That blockbuster might've been what Raine needed to win, but it took everything she had left in her. She can't make the cover.
Adams: It sure did. However, it did a number on Andrea as well.
Simone: I think it's safe to say the first one to their feet is going to end up the winner of this match. But who is it going to be, is the question?!
For a brief moment Jacob dropped down between both women to find himself checking on them. Before standing himself back up as he had no choice but to start a ten count.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
Raine found herself starting to show some signs of life. Rolling onto her stomach and attempting to crawl towards the nearby corner.
FOUR!
FIVE!
SIX!
SEVEN!
Andrea found herself starting to sit up in the middle of the ring. Looking around a little dazed and confused after being on the receiving end of the previous move.
EIGHT!
NINE!
As Jacob was on the verge of ten. Andrea stood herself up to her feet, at the same time Raine used that corner to get herself up to a vertical basis. As Raine turned herself around she was blindsided by Andrea who connected with a SPLASH on her in the corner dazing the woman. Raine stumbled out of the corner and right into a kick to the gut from Andrea forcing her to double over. Raine was at Andrea's mercy as she grabbed a hold of her head.
She was setting up for a SITOUT FACEBUS-NOOOO! All of the sudden Raine popped Andrea's hands off her and connected with a HEADBUTT right to the jaw of Andrea. She fell back into the ropes and came right back to Raine who grabbed her by the hips and POPPED HER UP into the air, but out of nowhere Andrea came back down surprising Raine with a HURRICANRANA that sent her flying across the ring. In a daze Raine got back to her feet and turned right into the SITOUT FACEBUSTER from Andrea.
Raine's face bashed off the mat and then she rolled right on over to her back. Andrea sat there on her knees for a second taking a look at Raine before looking over to the nearest corner. This caused an uproar of cheers from the crowd causing Andrea to shoot up to her feet and make a mad dash towards that corner with something in mind.
Adams: I think we all know what Andrea has in mind here! She's aiming to put an end to this match!
Simone: You know those top rope moves are pretty high risk and don't always work out, but I don't know if Raine is going to get up after what we just saw.
Adams: If I was a betting man. I would say she's not getting up!
Andrea had stepped through the apron and then started to climb the top rope. She no sooner had her right foot on the top rope and was about to perch herself up when Andrea was blasted with an OPEN PALM STRIKE right to the nose from Raine. That stiff strike caused Andrea to lose balance and crotch herself on the top turnbuckle. That's when Raine found herself starting to climb the top rope as well. Pulling herself up to the second turnbuckles while grabbing a hold of Andrea.
Simone: Oh this could get dangerous. Both of them up there?!
Adams: If both of them crash and burn right here. It's not going to be pretty.
Simone: High risks moves don't always have the high rewards people are aiming for!
As soon as Raine grabbed hold of Andrea, it led to the woman fighting back. Andrea landed a couple of elbows to the side of Raine's head trying to weaken her. Raine lost her balance briefly but was able to catch it. As she landed a shot of her own to Andrea's gut doubling her over. Raine stood right back up on the ropes and grabbed a hold of her head again before leaping off for a SWINGING NECKBREAK-NOOOO! Andrea managed to grab the top rope causing Raine to go crashing to the mat herself.
She hit with a thud. However before she even had a chance to really register what happened. It was Andrea who took the opportunity to launch herself off the top rope and rotate in mid-air to come splashing down on Raine with "RISE OF THE PHOENIX"! As soon as she connected with it, she deep-hooked both of the legs of the new bombshell with Jacob dropping down to make the count.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
DING DING DING!
Justin: Here is your winner... ANNNNDDRREEEEAAAAA HEEERRRNNNAAANNNNDDDEEZZZ!
The sound of "Summertime Sadness" was starting to play throughout the speaker system for a second time. Andrea rolled herself off of Raine and stood up. Right away Jacob was there to raise the woman's hand in the air. Andrea lifting her other arm up in a sign of celebration.
Adams: What did I tell you, Belinda? I knew Andrea was picking up the win tonight.
Simone: I've never been one to take anything away from anyone. Certainly not Andrea. She's quite the talent, but I think Raine proved tonight she belongs and has a promising career here in Sin City Wrestling.
Adams: Personally, I think she's got a long way to go before she can say she belongs here. But if she's able to learn from tonight's loss and turn it into something positive. Who knows what the future could hold for her?!
By that time Raine had rolled out of the ring and was sitting there at ringside. Holding her head in her hands before she tossed her hair out of her face and decided to stand herself up. She looked back at the ring where Andrea continued to celebrate before turning around and starting to head to the back. The cameras focused on Andrea who stood there in the middle of the ring soaking in the cheers from the fans before the shot cut to the backstage area.
Cameras found themselves cutting in the hallway of the arena. Right away they were locked on the newcomer, Raine. Pulling the sweat soaked hair band from her hair and tossing it in the nearby trash can. She found herself looking up then and seeing the camera crew right there.
Raine: What? Are you wanting some kind of inside scoop? You want me to feel sorry for myself? Throw a fit? Be pissed off? Is that what you're looking for?
Her eyebrow was arched a bit.
Raine: Well, you came to the wrong person for all of that. I came into tonight knowing fully that it might not end up with a victory. Knowing that I was likely going to lose. After all, that's the first non-death match I've competed in since my early twenties. Without a doubt, I was out of my element. Shit happens.
Finding herself shrugging her shoulders for a brief moment. That's when she began to tear the white tape off her wrist and unravel it as quickly as she could. Keeping her eyes forward.
Raine: The main goal I had set for myself I achieved. I showed up tonight and I showed that I could compete at a high level. It might take me a while to be able to string along some victories and start to make an impact, but proving that I could compete at a high level was step number one. I have to build on that from here. That's up to me to figure out what to do, how to do it, and how to make myself bigger. Challenges like that I embrace and look forward to.
Balling up that tape and tossing it into the same trash can. This was followed up with Raine taking a couple of steps towards the cameras. Her focus changed for a moment.
Raine: And as far as Andrea goes. Sweetheart, enjoy the win. I'm not going to take anything from you. You were the better woman. No ifs, ands, or buts about it. You earned your win. However, you showed who you truly were to me. No matter how much you say you're different from what you once were. As long as you act the same, talk the same, and carry yourself the same. Guess what? You're still a cunt.
Her eyes were narrowed a bit. Letting it be known how she truly felt in just the simplest of expressions.
Raine: And that's fine, you can be who you want to be. Yet, now that I know who you are. The next time we meet. I guarantee you there will be a next time. When it happens, you're going to see my cunt side and I'm going to get my lick back!
Raine nodded her head for a moment or two. Seemingly satisfied with what she needed to say, she found herself walking right past the camera crew and heading towards the locker room area. This led to the shot cutting away to catch some more of the action.
The interview area is set up with SCW branding, including a backdrop featuring the SCW logo and images of the top wrestlers. Bright lights illuminate the space. The sounds of the ongoing show can be heard faintly in the background.
Song holding a one liter of Coke Zero stands next to the SCW interviewer, HollyWood , who is holding a microphone and ready to conduct the interview. Master Lilly.
Holly Wood: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome my guests at this time, Song and her manager, Master Lilly!
Song smiling and nodding
Song: Thanks for having us, Holly.
Master Lilly nods
Master Lily:It's a pleasure to be here.
Holly Wood: Song, you've got a big match coming up in just a few minutes against Luna Pasilno. How are you feeling about this matchup?
Song: I'm feeling confident, Holly. Luna is a tough competitor, but I've been training hard and I'm ready to give it my all in the ring. This match is important to me, and I'm determined to come out on top.
Holly Wood: Luna is known for her high-flying and brawler style. How do you plan to counter her unique approach?
Song: Luna's style is definitely challenging, but I've been working on my counters and my footwork. My goal is to stay one step ahead of her and use her own aggression against her. I've also got the strength advantage, so I'll be looking to capitalize on that whenever I can.
Holly Wood: Master Lilly, as Song's manager, what advice have you given her for this match?
Master Lily:I've reminded Song to stay focused and composed. Luna's high-flying moves can be unpredictable, but if Song can anticipate her attacks and stay grounded, she'll have the upper hand. We've also worked on enhancing Song's defensive skills and her ability to read Luna's movements.
Holly Wood: Song, you've mentioned before that this match is personal for you. Can you tell us more about that?
Song: Absolutely. Luna is facing me in hopes of stepping over me to climb up the ranks. I will do everything in my power to not let that happen and to prove that I have what it takes to be a top star in SCW.
Holly Wood: Master Lilly, how do you see Song's chances in this match?
Master Lily:"I have complete faith in Song. She's one of the most dedicated and hardworking athletes I've ever had the pleasure of working with. Her determination and resilience are unmatched, and I know she's going to give it everything she has in that ring.
Holly Wood: Song, what message do you have for Luna as you head into this match?
Song: looking directly into the camera Luna, I hope you're ready. Tonight, I'm bringing everything I've got, and I'm not backing down. Get ready for the fight of your life.
Holly Wood: Master Lilly, any final words of encouragement for Song?
Master Lily: Song, remember everything we've worked on. Trust in your training, trust in your instincts, and most importantly, trust in yourself. You've got this.
Song smiles
Song: Thank you, Master Lilly. Your support means everything to me.
Holly Wood: Thank you, Song and Master Lilly. We wish you the best of luck in your match.
Song: Thank you, Holly. I appreciate it.
Master Lily:Thank you, Holly.
The Cameraman cuts the camera off but quickly turns it back on and focuses on Song. Song jogs, jumping over equipment crates. She hopes over the cables scattered around, and the faint roar of the crowd can be heard from the arena. Song turns the corner as the cameraman stays right behind her As Song jogs down the hallway, her mind focused on the upcoming match. As she turns another corner, she spots Seleana Zdunich talking to a crew member.
Song: Seleana! Just the person I was looking for.
Seleana looks up and turns smiling towards Song.
Seleana: Ja?
Seleana walks closer to her.
Seleana: Heya Song, how's it?
Song gives Seleana a slight bow.
Song: I'm great
Song spots a security guard with her phone out. Song can tell she would like to take a photo. Song points at the guard so Seleana can see. Song then takes Seleana arm and places it on her neck to look like Seleana is going to chokeslam Song. The guard takes the photo then bows. Song does a slight bow back.
Song: How are you doing?
Seleana grins.
Seleana: That was funny as.
Song smiles
Song: Yeah, I spotted her earlier, she needs to be careful not to get caught by her bosses.
Song says with a worried voice for the young guard.
Song: Anyways, I'm so happy to see you, I wasn't sure if you were coming since you were off. I'm glad you made it. Did you come alone?
Seleana shakes her head.
Seleana: Nej, but I do not know where Christina is. Aurora started back at school this week so could not come on this trip.
Song demeanor changes hearing how school just started.
Song: Oh crap… I didn't realize we where so close to kids returning back to school. That explains a lot. Oh, I owe Loti big time.
Before Sel can ask what Song is talking about, Song explains.
Song: I asked Loti to join me on this trip. She said yes, then I told her that we would leave a week out and Loti's face changed, she already told me yes and I think she would have felt bad if she retracted.
Song stomps the floor realizing her mistake.
Song: Now I see why she has been snippy here and there. This is the time of year Loti looks forward to. It's one of the only times a year that Loti gets to go to work and give kids shots needed before going to school. It's one of the only times she gets to go to work and knows that 95% of the kids she will see are just fine and get to go home.
Song snaps her fingers while moving her arm in a half circle motion.
Song: It may not sound much but to her its the world and it means a lot to her and I kind of took that moment away from her this year. FUCK…
Song covers her mouth realizing she just cursed on camera.
Song: I messed up big you know!
Seleana: I can understand that being bad, ja, but you do not make a habit of such things. It happen once, she will know you are not faking when you show remorse.
Song nods
Song: I been saying sorry not knowing why. Loti said that we'll talk later. I know that means she is waiting for me to have my match with Luna. She wants me to make sure I am focused on this match. So my sorry(s) have been fake, well fake in that I don't know what the issue is but not fake in knowing that whatever I did I didn't mean it. Loti knows that, which is why she is waiting.
Song takes a deep breath
Song: I don't know why I am so lucky to have her sometimes. She even put my match against Luna before her own anger towards me. I will go find her, she's in the nurses offices talking nurse stuff. Anyways, I was looking for you to say thank you for letting Aurora hang out with Loti and me. The two share a bond that is special. From the outside, I enjoy the smile Loti gets when hearing how Aurora is doing, Which is even more why I really messed up. I was hoping she was around for this trip.
Song gets an idea in her head.
Song: Hey, once we get back to the states. Loti and I were going to have her nieces for the weekend. I was going to ask if Aurora could join but I'm sure you want to spend time with her when you get back so maybe the week after that she can come over?
Seleana nods and takes hold of Song by her shoulders.
Seleana: Then you should thank her by focusing on Luna now and talking to har after. It will be alright. One problem at a time, ja?
She nods her head taking in what Seleana is telling her.
Seleana: First Luna, then you can focus on fixing the Loti problem. As for Aurora, of course she can. She loves Las Vegas and she likes the two of you.
Song nods, taking Seleana's advice
Song: You're right, I was going to talk to her now but that is greedy of me. If she can wait, I should be able to as well. Thank you Seleana, this was an unexpected eye opener for me.
Seleana puts her hands together and bows.
Seleana: Happy to help.
Song bows back this time a bit lower than before to show Seleana more respect after their talk. Song then makes a Beeline to the women's locker room before heading out to her match.
The camera captures a panning shot of the quiet and respectful yet eager fans that have filled each and every seat in Tokyo's Ariake Arena. There are smiles and hushed whispers between them as the camera then pans to the interior of the six-sided ring where both Justin Decent and referee Dawn Barnes await...
Justin: The following contest is scheduled for one fall to a finish!
Song's theme starts to play we see Song walking down the ramp. She gets half way down and pauses. Song bows and then proceeds to walk to ringside. Song jumps and lands on the apron. Song puts her hands on the ropes and flip over to get inside the ring. The fans Boo with a few cheers and we see Song bowing to the fans.
Justin: Currently in the ring! From FoShan, China! SONG!!!
The crowd applauds politely.
Simone: Song had been dearly missed by the SCW Universe and the feeling was more than mutual, I can assure you.
Adams: And she showed she is still the same Song. She got a big win over Ariana Angelos in her return at Summer XXXTreme XII.
Simone: Who she is facing tonight will be al altogether different story.
Justin: And her opponent....!
The lights begin to dull, going to almost complete black. The opening chime, a single spotlight appearing above Luna Pasilno. A large smile plastered across her face, hands raising to her sides, palms downwards, hands bent somewhat. "'Cause I'm a King," plays out as blue lights begin to pulse across the arena in time with the music. Her hands thrust down rapidly, striding forth. Rolling her hips heavily with each measured and purposeful step. The crowd roaring with boos and dissent, vitriol flowing from them.
Justin: Making her way down the aisle! From New Orleans, Louisiana - Luna! Pasilno!!
She comes to a stop at the base of the ramp, eyes fixed on the centre of the ring. She bends at the knee slightly, turning side on and throwing her head back. One hand pressing the back of her wrist against her head, hand hanging flaccidly, the other still resting on her hip. "There is a god, and she is me," she bounces up slightly, bringing her hand from her hip up in full flourish and 'shows herself off', taking a few quick steps before swinging one leg up onto the apron. Hooking her hands, she pulls herself up and under, bringing the other leg up in a momentary split as she slides beneath the bottom rope. She sits and turns, pulling herself up with the ropes, and slowly backing into the middle of the ring. Shimmying her jacket off in the process.
Once assured both women are ready, Dawn calls for the opening bell.
DING DING DING!
The two Bombshells emerge from out of their corners and begin to circle the ring, sizing one another up. They pause in the center of the ring before Song extends a hand to her opponent in a gesture of good sportsmanship. Luna looks at her hand and then at her with an arched brow.
Simone: Song needs to be careful. Much has changed on the Bombshell landscape. Song remains quite the honorable competitor while Luna...
Luna slowly accepts Song's hand -- much to the surprise of everyone in attendance.
Adams: ... Well I'll be!
The two women lock up, collar and elbow and they struggle briefly for the advantage until Luna slowly overpowers Song and backs her up against the ropes. Dawn calls for the clean break and is about to start her count when Luna backs away slowly, hands up and looking to the crowd for approval.
Simone: Has something gotten into Luna? She is being awfully sportsmanlike.
Adams: Maybe it was the sake at the buffet?
Simone: We didn't serve sake at the buffet, Jason.
Adams: Oh... maybe that was just me then.
Song comes off of the ropes and the two women circle once again and as they pause to lock up, this time it is Luna who extends a hand to her opponent. Song pauses, looking out to the fans. She then steps forward and reaches to accept -- and Luna delivers a boot to the midsection, doubling her over!
Adams: And THERE'S the Luna we all know and loathe, er, love!
Luna goes on the attack, showing her true colors as she assaults Song under a flurry of forearm smashes, driving her back on her feet until she is pinned against the ropes. With a handful of her long hair, Luna bends Song backwards over the ropes, exposing her stomach for a fist that drives the air completely from her. Luna then quickly grabs her by the head and rakes Song's forehead across the top rope, eliciting a shriek of pain from her opponent!
Simone: Those rope burns are nasty!
Each time Dawn warns Luna about her foul tactics, Luna breaks away before the referee can begin a count to admonish her and risk disqualification. Luna confidently grabs two handfuls of her hair to follow up her attack when Song suddenly uses both arms to sweep aside Luna's arms, breaking her grip. Song then unleashes a rapid series of left and right open handed palm strikes to the sternum and head of Luna, taking her by surprise! Song follows up with a spinning back fist that staggers Luna and sends her into a tail spin where Song delivers a kick to the back of her knee, dropping her down to a single knee. Song then delivers a scorpion kick across the back of her exposed head and neck.
Adams: I think Luna is finding out you make a big mistake if you think you can take advantage of Song's demeanor!
Song drags her upright and goes to send her into the ropes but Luna holds on and reverses it! Song comes off the far side and Luna catches her in a drop toe hold, causing Song to fall throat-first across the middle rope! Luna jumps to her feet and races into the ropes and comes careening in and slides through the ropes for a 619 but Song moves! Luna spins around to face her and Song strikes fast with a roundhouse kick that sends Luna toppling over the top rope and she crash lands in a heap on the outside!
Simone: Song has taken complete control of this match!
Luna rolls over on the outside to recover and Song looks to go out after her but Dawn intervenes and Song obliges, backing off. Dawn returns to count against Luna on the outside...
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
FOUR!
Luna uses the ringside barricade to drag herself to her feet...
FIVE!
SIX!
SEVEN!
Luna climbs up onto the apron to return to action and Song comes in after her but Luna counters, delivering a shoulder block to her midsection, knocking her back. Luna mocks Dawn who orders her in the ring when Luna spots movement and she ducks down low but Song soars over her and the top rope, attempting a sunset powerbomb to the outside!
Adams: Oh no! Anything but this!
Song tugs and pulls as Luna holds on for dear life until Song finally wrenches her free!
Simone: This could very well end things right here!
And just as Song goes to deliver the powerbomb, Luna counters with a hurricanrana that sends Song crashing into the barricade head-first!
Adams: Well THAT didn't work out how Song wanted!
Luna grabs hold of Song by the hair and tights and whips her back into the ring, rolling her beneath the bottom rope! Luna then quickly climbs to the top of the nearest corner facing the crowd and leaps back, landing on top of Song with a perfect moonsault! Luna hooks the leg for the cover!
ONE!
TWO!
Song kicks out!
Luna grabs a hold of her head and delivers two straight right hands to the skull before jumping to her feet and grabbing Song by the legs. Luna falls back, sending Song flying via slingshot face-first into the corner - Song's head striking the top turnbuckle! Song slowly turns around, hurt and on her feet and Luna kicks a boot up and against Song's throat, choking her out as Dawn counts against her...!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
FOUR!
Luna breaks but does not ease up as she Irish whips Song into the far corner and comes right in with a high boot right to the head! The blow staggers Song and she sinks down to her backside, dazed! Luna power walks around the ring, mocking the fans until she builds up a head of steam and comes racing in and lands atop of Song with a cannonball senton! Luna pulls Song away from the ropes and covers her again!
ONE!
TWO!
Kick out by Song!
Adams: Still not enough to keep the former World Tag Champion down!
Luna shows her frustration by going on the attack, dragging Song to her knees and coming off the ropes with a spiked Hurricanrana. Luna then positions Song just so and slices a thumb across her throat!
Simone: Could we be seeing the end?
Adams: Luna sure thinks so!
Again Luna ascends to the top, taking a moment to yell at the fans when suddenly Song is back on her feet! Song runs right up the turnbuckles and grabs Luna, bringing her crashing down with a belly to belly superplex!
Simone: Luna wasted too much time!
Adams: I bet she and Alexander have a conspiracy just waiting to explain that mistake!
Song with the immediate cover!
ONE!
TWO!
TH-Luna gets her shoulder up!
Adams: SO close!
Song drags Luna to her feet and fires her off into the far corner and comes in, jumping and sandwiching Pasilno with a Stinger splash! Luna staggers out of the corner and Song quickly mounts the corner and comes off with a missile dropkick, sending Luna tumbling head over heels! Song with another cover!
ONE!
TWO!
THR-Kick out AGAIN by Luna!
Simone: Song has to be getting a little bit frustrated herself!
Sing brings Luna over with a snap suplex, setting her up herself. Song then climbs to the top rope and she pauses in wait for Luna to rise. Luna stands upright and turns around and Song leaps for a flying body press -- but Luna moves and Song crashes! Song rises to her knees, holding her sternum in pain and Luna attempts a knee strike but Song dives aside! Luna grabs Song and scoops her up for a body slam but Song transitions into a Hurricanrana but as she rolls through, Luna drops to her knees on Song's shoulders!
ONE!
Luna grabs the ropes for leverage!
Simone: Dawn! Look up!
TWO!
Adams: NO!
THREE!
DING DING DING!
Adams: Awww!
Luna rolls out of the ring quickly as Song jumps to her feet, shocked at the outcome! Dawn is on the outside as she raises Luna's arm!
Justin: The winner of this match -- LUNA PASILNO!
Song protests to Dawn as Luna backs up the aisle, taunting the defeated Bombshell!
A camera comes up in the back, Alexandra is sitting on a gear box, LJ is leaning against it with her and the two are talking. Alexandra is dressed in her ring gear, prepared for mixed tag team action tonight. LJ is dressed in his regular clothes as he's not booked.
Alexandra: Now all we need is Miles and Carter and this is complete.
She joked softly.
Alexandra: Seriously though, I know he'll be here, but I just want to work out a strategy for beating the Barnharts tonight. Miles and I both really could use this win.
LJ smiled at her.
LJ: You two have it and you'll go on to face Finn and Kayla again. If you two can focus and not be so worried about other stuff, you'll get it.
He took her hand in his and leaned towards her. Before anything else could happen, someone cleared their throat.
Miles: Hey, just cause I know it's happening doesn't mean I want to see it.
Miles gave a chuckle.
Miles: LJ, Ally.
Alexandra pulls away quickly, turning to look at Miles.
Alexandra: Hey it's about time you got here. I was starting to worry.
Miles: You ever known me to not show up.
Miles shook his head.
Miles: Look, we trust each other and I know that the Barnharts shouldn't be too hard for us. But, we need to be ready for anything to happen out there.
Alexandra: I trust you Miles, so this is what I was thinking..
The scene fades out with them grouped up together talking.
Just then, the lights inside of the Ariake Arena flickers until they one by one across the building, wink out until all is covered by darkness. The SCW-Tron above the entrance stage then flickers to life, covered by scrolling Matrix symbols and numbers...
Until they begin to take shape into the form of a slim man's outline and the outline takes form to Internet Champion Helluva Bottom Carter with his hair slicked back and he slips a pair of dark shades over his eyes ala Neo of the Matrix! And just like that, the screen flickers off and the lights return and on top of the stage with his back turned to the camera and audience is Carter himself, clad from head to toe in black, complete with the ankle-length black jacket.
Pussy Willow: Ladies and gentlemen! Please welcome the NEW Sin City Wrestling Internet Champion! Helluva Bottom Carter!
"No Shame" by 5 Seconds of Summer kick starts across the arena's sound system and Carter spins around on spot, throwing off the black jacket to reveal his shimmering rainbow unitard with the Internet Championship belt around his slim waist! He slips off the black shades and replaces them with his preferred rose-colored shades and he begins his descent down the ramp, slapping hands with those offered to him on both sides of the aisle. Carter then pauses and takes a seat next to one young female fan. He leans up against her to pose for a selfie before resuming his trek toward the ring. Carter bounds up the ring steps and turns his back against the ropes and performs a sweeping bow while blowing a kiss to the fans before stepping through the ropes, between the top and middle ropes in order to enter the six-sided ring.
Simone: Just listen to these fans in Tokyo! They love the new Internet Champion!
Adams: And why wouldn't they? He's a living, breathing anime character!
The crowd noise subsides as a beaming Carter joins Pussy Willow in the center of the ring.
Pussy Willow: Carter, I have to offer my sincerest congratulations! Your very first singles championship in Sin City Wrestling and it is none other than the Internet Championship! How does it feel???
Carter chuckles and shakes his head, the excitement still evident on his young face.
HBCarter: I have to admit that I was starting to think that it was never going to happen. I mean, I spent the beginning of my career in Sin City Underground and there the sky was the limit! Every championship opportunity they offered up to me, I took and ran with it! I thought that success was going to keep going when SCU closed down and Mark Ward signed me almost immediately only...
Carter bit his lip and shrugged his shoulders.
Pussy Willow: Only it took a little longer than you expected?
HBCarter: It took a LOT longer than I expected! I tried to repeat my success with Ariana in the Mixed Tag division...
Pussy Willow: Only now Ariana's contract has not been renewed.
Carter nods his head sadly.
HBCarter: Yeah. SCW just isn't the same without my bestie here, and I can't see myself teaming with just anyone else. I was given opportunities at the World Heavyweight title and even this one I have right now a time or two and I just couldn't get past that roadblock! But you know what they say; all good things come to those that wait!
Pussy Willow: And now just with your championship success, but also in your personal life. Congratulations are in order for you and Miles!
Above the stage, on the screen, a wedding still of Carter and Miles posing together on their wedding day. The Tokyo fans applaud and cheer and Carter could not look any happier as Pussy Willow places a warm hand on his shoulder.
HBCarter: Thank you! And as happy and as excited as I am to finally be able to call myself a champion, that is nothing compared to being able to call myself Miles's husband!
Pussy Willow: I'll bet! Now, are there any thoughts or plans where your new championship title is concerned?
To this, Carter shakes his head.
HBCarter: Not a thing! I had toyed with asking Tempest if she'd mind if I borrowed her Internet poll schtick, but I think for my first time on the carousel, I am just going to wing it! With Mark Ward in charge this time around, I am just going to sit back and enjoy the ride. I don't know who my first challenger is going to be, but I'll put the title on the line against anyone...
Pussy Willow: Oh we know who your first challenger will be. We already got notified. You're defending your championship in two weeks in Belgium against Justin Smith.
Carter nods.
HBCarter: Alright, great! I'm defending in two weeks against .... JUSTIN Smith!?
Carter does a comedic double take at this bit of news. He frowns and looks around before turning back to Pussy Willow and leans in.
HBCarter: Justin Smith? Are you sure?
Pussy Willow nods.
Pussy Willow: Very sure. The announcement had Mark Ward's seal on it.
Carter nods, clearly caught off guard.
HBCarter: Hunh...! Well...!
He shrugs.
HBCarter: I can say one thing at least! This is going to be easier than Miles on our wedding night!
"No Shame" kicks up again and Carter shakes the hand of Pussy Willow before parading around threw ring, holding his Internet title belt up high and looking into the camera as the screen faces out.
Justin Decent: The following match is scheduled for one fall and has a special referee
And sure enough Austin James Mercer steps forward wearing a referee shirt and black jeans.
"I still wear this crown"
"I still wear this crown" By Kittie hits as Alicia steps out with a black hoodie over her upper half with the hood up over her long blond hair. She stands on the stage and reaches up flipping the hood back and looking down at the ring before pointing her finger guns with a smirk. 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 and taking off the hoodie.
Justin Decent: Now in the ring, standing 5'8 and weighing in at 150 pounds….ALLLLICIA LUKAS
The heavy beat of Halestorm's "You Call Me a Bitch Like It's a Bad Thing" kicks up over the sound system and the heads of the SCW Universe turns towards the entrance as the Bombshell amazon Tempest walks out onto the stage..
Justin Decent: Coming to the ring! From Honolulu, Hawaii, weighing two hundred and eighteen pounds -- Tempest!
The fans are in awe at the size of Tempest as she wastes no time in power walking straight to the ring, her eyes never straying from her destination and paying no mind to the fans reaching out toward her. A perpetual frown on her face, she arrives at the ringside area where she climbs up onto the ring apron and straight inside of the ring. Tempest stands in the center of the ring, her arms held out and turns full circle before moving to her corner.
DING DING DING!
The two women move around the ring staring at each other. Austin steps back and is smart enough just to let them go. Alicia shows no fear of the woman who Towers over every single bombshell on the roster. She smiles and shakes her head stepping closer. Tempus takes two long strides reaching the centre of the ring and looking down at Alicia as the former bombshell champion comes up to Tempest"s mid chest
Adams: This is a horrible situation for Austin to be in. His tag team partner and best friend against his longtime friend and current girlfriend. Why on earth would he agree to be in the middle of this?
Simone: One. you say current girlfriend like he's just going to drop Alicia and find someone else. 2.some men just want to put themselves in awkward situations. But if he knows what's good for him he will just call it all down the middle
Adams: Oh, that is where you are wrong. No matter what happens he's going to end up with a woman mad at him. But one of them he only sees every few weeks, the other one he has to live with. If he's smart, he knows which one he won't disappoint
Alicia nods slowly before stepping back and then firing off a hard right hand. It connects with Tempest but because she has to punch upward she loses some power. Tempest uncorks a right of her own and the two women go right into it. Brawling with hard right hand peppering them back-and-forth over and over again. Austin steps back and looks at both women with a concerned glare. Alicia then steps back and hit a kick right to the stomach of tempest which doubles her over, Alicia grabs hold of Tempest by the head in a front face lock. She then runs up the ropes and goes for a tornado DDT
Tempest uses her incredible strength to catch Alicia and pick her straight up in the air and tries to dump Alicia over the top rope. Alicia grabs hold of the top rope and lands on the ring apron she then hits tempest with a hard forearm staggering the large woman sending her back toward the centre of the ring. Alicia then grabs hold of the middle rope ducks down and slingshots herself through the ropes with a spear hitting tempest in the midsection. But tempest catches Alicia and hooks her arm around Alicia's head pulling Alicia's arm over her own and lifting Alicia straight up in the air with a vertical Suplex before they both crashed to the mat with a loud thud
Austin runs his hands through his hair shaking his head obviously not enjoying what is going on
Simone: Well, these two are definitely not going easy on each other. Then again I didn't really think they were going to. Alicia is a former world champion and tempest is probably in a bad mood after just losing her championship.
Adams: And they are both extremely proud women. When you talk to Alicia and Tempus they both have the same kind of reaction when it comes to professional wrestling. In their mind this is all about pride and honour. It is all about the sanctity of the ring. Not a lot of women have that attitude, not a lot of men have that attitude. In fact I just think the wrestling business is starting to go to shit
Simone: Okay grandpa, get off your soapbox and get back to commenting on the match
Tempest pulls Alicia to her feet and grabs hold of Alicia by the head slamming in a head butt. Alicia staggers back by Tempest grabs her by the wrist and pulls her forward, scooping her straight up in the air for scoop slam. Alicia hits the mat and Tempest waste no time reaching down and in an incredible show of strength lifts Alicia with a dead lift off the mat straight in the air into a military press. The crowd is shocked and Austin who was showing concern now has a smile on his face being impressed with his tagteam partner strength.
He snaps out of it and Alicia reaches down grabbing hold of Tempest by the nostrils and pulling back on her nose. Tempest drops Alicia lands on her feet and right away starts hitting hard right hand backing temper stopping into the ropes. Austin admonishes Alicia for grabbing hold of Tempest by the nose but Alicia just shrugged him off and goes back to hitting hard right and lefts. Alicia then turns and backs up before hitting a vicious knife edge chop right across Tempus chest but this has the opposite effect to what she would want as tempest seems to wake up.
Alicia then it's another chop, Tempest steps out of the corner. Alicia hits a third but still tempest comes toward her. Alicia hits another and another and another but each shot seems to just make Tempest more determined to move forward into them. Alicia shakes her head and Tempest tells her to do it again, puffing out her chest. Alicia nods and pulls her arm back but before she can hit Tempest with a chop she instead throws her other hand forward poking tempest in the eye
Austin throws his hands in the air and tells Alicia to knock it off.
Simone: Oh come on. That isn't exactly respectful. That isn't exactly about honour.
Adams: No, but it is one of those things where everyone will always do whatever they can to get the win. All is fair in love and war and this is going to be a war
Alicia grabs Tempest by her hair and hits a few hard forearms. Tempest backs up into the ropes and Alicia runs and jumps hitting a dropkick sending tempest tumbling over the top rope to the outside. Alicia pops up and runs to the ropes hitting them with an incredible amount of speed before throwing herself between the top and middle road with a suicide dive landing onto Tempest outside the ring. Austin shakes his head and starts to count
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
Alicia starts to stir but Austin continues counting faster, almost like he's trying to get this match over and done with
FOUR!
FIVE!
SIX!
Alicia pops to her feet and slides back into the ring. Then the count suddenly starts to go to a normal pace
SEVEN!
EIGHT!
NINE!
Austin slowly raises his hands up and is about to count to 10 by Tempest slides back in the ring. Alicia throws her hands in the air and then shoves Austin who tells her to calm down. Alicia turns around and runs at Tempus realising that she's getting to her feet and goes for a running big boot. Tempest moves to the side and shoves Alicia out of the way before catching her with a vis Clothesline sending her down. Tempest pulls herself up and as Alicia goes to the ropes and tries to get herself to her feet tempest goes in and tries to grab a hold of her. But because Alicia is touching the ropes tells Tempest to back up. Tempest shakes her head and tries to get back at Alicia Austin again tells her to back up since Alicia is touching the ropes.
Simone: Well… The 10 count may have been a little weird but at least Austin is trying to keep the rules in check. We have Alicia being in Monish for cheating and Tempest got told to stay back because Alicia was holding a rope
Adams: And since it's something that we don't always see I have to explain this to some of the people at Home. If a wrestler is touching the ropes, they are technically safe. You have to wait for them to let go of the rope, but with that being said that side of it doesn't really get enforced
Alicia steps away from the side and runs at Tempest going for a clothesline. Tempest catches Alicia hooking her arm around the smaller woman and throwing her up and over with an exploder. Alicia lands hard and hold her back. As she gets to her feet temp calls for the fireman carry stunner. She ducks and picks Alicia up onto her shoulders and as she goes to spin her around Alicia kicks her legs, lands behind Tempest, and is able to hit a few hard. Low kicks to Tempest thigh. She keeps going about it trying to chop the large woman down with vicious kick to her legs before hitting the ropes and jumping in the air hitting a low dropkick to Tempest knee. Tempest drops down to one knee and Alicia pops up before hitting some kicks to her chest. she then backs up the ropes and leaps in the air with a dropkick face. Alicia crawls over and dives on top of Tempest
ONE!
TWO!
Tempest kicks out. The account being perfectly paced by Austin. Alicia swallows hard knowing there's nothing she can say about it. She reaches over and pulls herself up to her feet before calling Tempest to get up. As she does Alicia Duckdown and goes to pick Tempest up onto her shoulders for the Georgia drop. She is able to power the larger woman up and as the crowd is impressed she isn't able to complete the move. She goes to lift Tempest up in the air and Tempest slides down Alicia's back, getting her, and picking her up in the accordion rack before slamming Alicia down out of it and going for a pin herself
ONE!
TWO!
Alicia kicks out!
Simone: She got her shoulder up! This is a hard hitting match
Adams: We didn't expect anything less.
Simone: the fact remains one of these women is going to have to win the match and Austin is going to have to call it
Alicia and Tempest get to their feet staring holes at each other. Alicia shakes her head and then steps forward hitting Tempest who then returns favour and hits Alicia back the two women hitting hard right hands just like they did at the start of the match. Over and over and over again. Alicia ducks under a swinging right attempt from Tempest, she hits the ropes hard and comes back throwing her body at Tempest hitting a spear. it takes Tempest down and Alicia seems to be getting some momentum. She then calls for the Georgia drop again pulling tempest to her feet but as she lifts her up tempest is able to slide down and pull Alicia with her into a rollup putting all of her weight down onto Alicia's shoulders. Alicia is locked up and Austin slide down to do the count
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
DING DING DING!
Justin: Here is your winner.... Tempest!
Bella Madison appears backstage with a sweet smile on her face as she takes a bow.
Bella: Kon'nichiwa Tokyo.
Bella straights up and smiles innocently taking a deep breath.
Bella: I'm just gonna get straight to the point, ever since Summer XXXtreme I cannot seem to get something off my mind. I have been scratching and clawing for a long time now. I am always finding myself waiting and waiting and working my way up. Well, this time...I'm not waiting.
She shakes his head and gives a little nod.
Bella: I do not give a damn who it is after tonight. Whether it's Harper or that bitch Victoria, it's not about either one of you, it's about just one thing and one thing only. The SCW Bombshell's Roulette. Harper we both know that this shot should have never gone to you but hell I'm all for torture. We all have to learn our hard ways. I do, however, hope that you Victoria do retain tonight because I KNOW for a fact that we have a whole lot of unfinished business.
The look on her face hardens and she sneers.
Bella: You are no damn queen of mine. The ONLY reason you even have that crown is because I stayed away. I could easily be where you are now. Hold on tight to it Victoria, oh please, please do. Because I'm going to take everything, simply because I can. I promised myself and now I'm promising you, the Queen is going to lose her head while dealing with me and then she's gonna lose her title.
One more wicked little smirk and a glare.
Bella: TO ME!
Simone: We've had a great night of action so far though one anticipated debut wasn't scheduled for tonight as despite signing with the company right before Summer XXXTreme and issuing an open challenge for her debut Cassie Wolfe will have to wait another week before she makes her in ring debut.
Adams: She wasn't exactly happy about it either but she promised to cheer on her partner in crime Harper Mason in tonight's Main Event for the Roulette Title against Victoria Lyons but……
Voice Over: The following message is being delivered from the Young Justice News Room.
Simone: Err, what?
Adams: I know Harper and Cassie team up as Young Justice elsewhere but SCW hasn't had a Bombshell Tag Team Division in years.
We cut to a custom newsroom on the screen where we see Cassie Wolfe shuffling some papers.
Cassie: Hello and welcome to the 69 O'Clock News, I'm Cassie Wolfe!
Adams: Nice.
Simone: KEEP IT CLEAN JASON!
Cassie: In tonight's top story, most of the Bombshells in SCW are scared of getting their asses kicked by a twenty one year old Aussie prodigy! Seriously guys, you had two weeks to answer my challenge, TWO WEEKS! You had plenty of time to sum up the courage to answer my challenge and who gets booked instead?
Cassie checks her notes.
Cassie: Some chick called Raine and Song! I won't stand for this crap much longer!
Cassie leans back and folds her arms.
Cassie: I'm extending my challenge to next week and trust me, I will keep these segments going for as long as I can! And on a more personal note?
Two pictures appear on the green screen behind Cassie, one picture shows Harper Mason with angels wings and a halo, the other shows Victoria Lyons with devil horns, a pitchfork and a forked tongue.
Cassie: My partner in crime Harper is challenging for the Bombshell Roulette Title in this week's main event, I could pretend to be unbiased in my reporting but, well……..
Cassie motions to the pictures.
Cassie: I've made my choice!
Cassie adds as she stares into the camera.
Cassie: So to all my fans? In a world of fake queens and open challenges going unanswered? Be yourselves and be a Rebel Princess, and to whoever finally answers my challenge next week? Watch out because I'm hungry like the wolfe!
The screen goes blank as Climax Control goes to commercial.
Simone: Welcome back to Climax Control! Aiden Reynolds and Eddie Lyons fell short in their quest to win back the Roulette Title from Alexander Raven at Summer XXXTreme two weeks ago and now they are competing in the opening round of the Proving Ground Series!
Adams: We don't know what the prize is at the end nut Eddie and Aiden have gone at it before, can they tear the house down again?
Simone: This should be a great match! Let's take it to Justin!
Justin: The following contest is a proving ground match scheduled for one fall!
The opening riff of Parkway Drive's "Vice grip" hits. The high speed gives way to Aiden Reynolds stepping out onto the stage, a fist in the air and a black leather jacket with "The Aussie Wolf" spray painted on the back. He moves his way down to the ring and as the refrain of the song hits he throws his arms out to the side as he and the crowd both chant.
"YEAAAH YEAH YEAH"
Justin: Introducing first, from the Gold Coast in Queensland, Australia, weighing 220ibs, "The Aussie Wolf" Aiden Reynolds!
He leaps onto the apron and takes a few steps backwards before sling shoting himself into the ring and spinning around, he then stops and drops to one knee slamming his fist into the mat.
Simone: Aiden had the shortest reign with the Roulette Title in a long time and now wants to get back in the title picture!
Adams: Eddie has the same desire though!
Justin: And his opponent!
As Clouds by NF begins A fog fills the stage area, as Eddie Lyons appears in the middle, hoodie up, and arms folded. He stands there looking down at the ring for a few moments. Shooting a fist into the air, Eddie pulls his hoodie down, and makes his way down the ramp, tagging the hands of a few fans along the way before climbing the stairs into the ring. Eddie extends his arms to both sides then drops to a knee, and punches the mat, he then moves to his corner to await the start of the match.
Justin: From Baltimore, Maryland, weighing 230ibs "Unbreakable" Eddie Lyons!
Simone: Eddie wants to win his second title in SCW and with Victoria's success in the Bombshell division the pressure is on him n this series.
Adams: Especially since Aiden was the one who ended Eddie's reign!
Jasmine goes over the rules with both men and once they make it clear that they understand the rules Aiden and Eddie share a quick handshake before Jasmine calls for the bell.
DING DING DING!
Simone: Nice bit of sportsmanship to kick things off between Eddie and Aiden!
Adams: those two men know each other well by this point!
Eddie and Aiden circle around each other for a minute or two before they lock up in the middle of the ring, Eddie uses his slight weight advantage to back Aiden up to the ropes but Aiden shoves his opponent away before he can press the advantage! Eddie gets back to his feet and Aiden hirs a running leg lariat, knocking Eddie down and allowing Aiden to go for the first pin of the match.
ONE!
TWO!
And Eddie gets the shoulder up!
Simone: Aiden pressing the early advantage here with that pin attempt.
Adams: And now Eddie's on the backfoot!
Both men get to their feet and this time it's Eddie that gets the advantage by hitting Aiden with a high dropkick to the chin that sends him to the outside! Aiden gets back to his feet and Eddie follows him out to the ringside area where they start trading blows this brawl takes them all over the ringside area until they reach an area where there are no fans seated and Eddie sends Aiden into that area with a Belly to Belly Suplex! Eddie breaks up Jasmine's ten count at nine before he starts climbing the nearest turnbuckle to where he left Aiden.
Simone: Aiden took a big fall into the crowd and it looks like Eddie's about to take an even bigger risk!
Adams: This won't be good for Aiden but it could backfire on Eddie just as badly!
Luckily for Eddie the risk pays off as he hits Aiden with a flip dive into the area behind the barricade! The crowd comes unglued at the move and Jasmine restarts her count again.
Crowd: HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!
At the count of five Eddie brings Aiden over the barricade and at the count of seven both men are back in the ring though Jasmine quickly finds herself applying another count as Eddie goes for a pin on Aiden!
ONE!
TWO!
And Aiden gets the shoulder up! Both men get to their feet but Eddie makes the first move again, this time with a Running Clothesline but Aiden ducks under it and hits Eddie with a release German Suplex! Eddie retreats into a seated position in the corner but Aiden charges into the corner and hits Eddie with a Cannonball Senton! Aiden then drags Eddie out of the corner and goes for a pin!
ONE!
TWO!
And Eddie kicks out! Aiden doesn't let up though as he locks in a Single Leg Boston Crab on Eddie prompting Jasmine to get into position to check on Eddie!
Simone: Aiden has Eddie at his mercy with that Boston Crab.
Adams: Even if Eddie doesn't tap out this will wear him down!
Jasmine asks Eddie if he wants to submit but Eddie refuses to give up so Aiden tries to crank up the pressure by sitting back on the submission hold! Eddie manages to fight through the pain however and manages to grab the bottom rope, breaking the submission up via a Rope Break and Aiden lets go before backing off from Eddie to let him use the ring ropes to pull himself up! Once Eddie is back on his feet Aiden goes for a Snap Suplex but Eddie blocks it before turning it around into a Brainbuster!
Simone: And now the ball is in Eddie's corner!
Adams: But how much damage did Aiden's submission do?
Eddie floats over into a pin on Aiden.
ONE!
TWO!
And Aiden kicks out! Eddie picks up Aiden but Aiden breaks Eddie's grip with a European Uppercut before he whips Eddie off the ropes and hits Eddie with a Double A Spinebuster on the rebound! Aiden floats over into a pin!
ONE!
TWO!
And Eddie kicks out! Both men get back to their feet and they both go for the same move, a running cross body, but they instead collide mid air and are down for a while!
Simone: it's often been said but it's true, whoever gets up first will have a huge advantage.
Adams: And that'll be invaluable to either Eddie or Aiden!
Eddie gets back to his feet first and he goes to pick up Aiden but Aiden counters it into a roll-up in the middle of the ring!
ONE!
TWO!
And Eddie kicks out! Both men get back to their feet and they start exchanging blows in the middle of the ring while Jasmine watches on and the crowd eats it up big time! Eddie turns things around though by hitting Aiden with a Lung Blower after turning him around with an uppercut and wastes little time in going for a pin on Aiden!
ONE!
TWO!
And Aiden kicks out! Both men are winded from the long match but they aren't letting up! Aiden is the first one to get back to his feet and connects with a High Standing Dropkick before he calls for his finisher the Gold Coast Cutter, however the long match means that he is slow to pick up Eddie for the move and Eddie starts to fight back with punches to the Aussie's midsection, however Aiden manages to cut off the flurry of offense with a knee to the midsection before getting Eddie onto his shoulders for the Gold Coast Cutter.
Simone: Aiden's going for the Gold Coast Cutter.
Adams: Can he hit it and get the win over Eddie!
However Eddie manages to get free of Aiden's grip, spins him around and drops Aiden with the Lyons Roar DDT!
Simone: And there's Eddie with the Lyons Roar DDT!
Adams: Stick a fork in Aiden, he's done!
Eddie goes for the pin!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
DING DING DING!
Justin: Here is your winner, Eddie Lyons!
Simone: Eddie gets the win in a hard fought battle!
Adams: Is this his comeback?
Eddie celebrates the win while Jasmine checks on Aiden.
Julianna DiMaria is sitting down with her newly won SCW Bombshells Internet Championship and needless to say, the former world champion is definitely in one happy mood considering the events of the cruise ship and Summer XXXtreme. She places the belt down on her lap and starts to think through a few things which turns out to be impeccable timing with the sudden appearance of Ms. Rocky Mountains.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: Congratulations.
Julianna: Yeah, thanks…
Julianna comes off as annoyed, but she's clearly still in a post-Summer XXXtreme glow as she stands up from her seat without being bothered.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: How did you do it? Tempest was definitely one of the more dominant Internet Champions that we have had recently.
Julianna: That's true.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: Not to mention that after two brutal shortcomings in the two supercards prior and then being suddenly shuttled down to the Internet Championship out of nowhere due to Victoria Lyons and her "Queen of the Day"...
Julianna: I am going to stop you right there. I don't see it as a "shuttling down". I never did. An opportunity came to me in the most unorthodox of ways and it's true that I would've rather not earned it in a handicap match of all things but I just had to do what had to be done. It was an opportunity for me to be a champion again. I was never going to treat this as a consolation prize. I wasn't going to be like others that have won this title after a world title reign and talk about how it means nothing to them and how they don't give a shit about it. That's not me. I am confident in saying that had I not been challenging for the World Championship, this is the championship that I would've been challenging for at High Stakes last year.
You want to mention the two supercards before, but…
Julianna pauses and shrugs.
Julianna: I honestly went into the match against Tempest putting those away and just not thinking about that. You can't just dwell on the past and dwell on your shortcomings and for a few weeks, yeah I was kicking my own ass that my world title reign wasn't necessarily the most sparkling thing in the world. But that was then and this is now. This isn't a 'learning on the job' type of situation. I know a lot more about what it takes to be a champion in this company than when I won the world title so I am highly confident that this is going to be just as good, if not a better reign than the world title reign I am coming off of.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: And yet, you are still inviting criticism from a select few women on the roster and…
Julianna lifts a finger, indicating that it's time for her to pause.
Julianna: Can you do me a favor on that?
Ms. Rocky Mountains: Yes?
Julianna: I don't need you to bring that up anymore. It's so irrelevant and to be honest, it's so boring. One of the mistakes I made during my world title reign is that I was focusing far too much on what other people were saying about me when I wasn't even wrestling them, or studying older promos to dissect anything that they had to say about me because I was going into a match against them. It's just a waste of time and honestly, it's a mental drain. I'm looking ahead to the future. I've learned plenty, but there's still plenty to learn. With this championship reign? I admit, the kinks of what I have planned for the Internet Championship are still in the works, but trust me when I say that I DO have some grand plans…
Plans such as taking this championship to a higher level and other reasonable goals like being the most interactive, social media savvy champion as long as I hold it…
To the seemingly impossible goal of 351 days…
Ms. Rocky Mountains: 351 days? Do you realize how hard that's going to be to break Myra's single reign record? You might not even last past Violent Conduct. Don't you think that's far too lofty of a goal to even think about?
Julianna: Why should I play it safe the way a few champions before me have? You know how I roll: I don't play things safe.
Julianna rolls her eyes and leaves the interview definitely confident in her future plans.
Bill Barnhart is sitting in his dressing room with an assigned camera person getting a shot of him before his Mixed Tag Team match.
Bill: It truly amazes me that Miles Kasey is trying to present himself as tough and undefeatable when we had two matches against each other and I won both of those matches. Miles will find out shortly that I am in this match to get my third win against him.
Bill takes a drink of Classic Coke.
Bill: On the other side of our Mixed Tag Team match we have Bea and Alexandra. Bea is fired up for this match having faced Alexandra four times and obtaining two wins over Alexandra by submission. Yes Alexandra has two wins over Bea but not a win by an overwhelming submission as Bea has over her.
Bill takes another drink of Classic Coke.
Bill: Now there is one item concerning our match that I want you to take notice of. At ringside during our match the current Mixed Tag Team Champions Finn Whelan and Kayla Richards will be at ringside. Usually when myself or Bea have an upcoming Championship match the person holding the current Championship shows up at ringside to try to interfere in our match to screw us out of the win. With that concept out there let me tell you what I have done. I have asked my friend, and fellow wrestler, Felix Hernandez, to be at ringside, The reason for this is simply to ensure that the Referee for our match calls the match fairly, and that Miles and Alexandra do not cheat during the match, and for damn sure to make sure that Finn Whelan and Kayla Richards do not interfere in the match to cheat me and Bea out of our win.
Bill finishes off the Classic Coke then he crushes the can in his hands and tosses the can into the trash.
Bill: I am done with my comments so I will turn the air time over to Bea for her to present her comments on our match. Bea steps in camera view and she is ready to present comments for the Mixed Tag Team match she and Bill have against Miles Kasey and Alexandra Calaway.
Bea: Bill put our match in perspective and there is not much more I can add to what Bill said but I will present what is on my mind. If our Mixed Tag Team match comes down to me and Alexandra I assure you I will defeat her and her team and me and Bill will move on for a shot at the Mixed Tag Team Championship. However if it comes down to Bill and Miles then with Bill having two wins over Miles and with Miles having no wins over Bill that is an automatic win for us.
Bea shows two thumbs up into the camera.
Bea: I am sure you want to know how I feel about having Fin Whelan and Kayla Richards hanging around ringside. I know they are not there to enjoy watching our match. I know they are there to interfere in the match to make sure the weaker team, meaning Miles and Alexandra, win the match so that they will not have a difficult Mixed Tag Team Title defense as they would against me and Bill.
Bea gain shows two thumbs up into the camera.
Bea: That is why I am glad that Felix, although he returned to his home in Athens, Georgia, offered to fly out and be at ringside to ensure there is no interference perpetrated by Alexander or Kayla to screw us out of our win.
One of the Backstage persons arrives at the dressing room of Bill and Bea and they inform them they need to start on their way to the entrance area to be ready to make their entrance for their match.
Bea: It is time for me and Bill to get ready to make our entrance for our Mixed Tag Team Match.
The assigned camera person cuts their camera feed as Bill walks into the room were he grabs the hand of Bea and then the two exit the dressing room and head down the hallway to get to the stating area to be ready for their entrance.
Simone: The Wolves have been dominant since they won the Mixed Tag Team Titles but they still need challengers! Coming up next we will see their next challengers be decided as The Barnharts take on Miles Kasey and Alexandra Callaway to determine their next challengers!
Adams: Four former singles title holders make up the match, and stranger things have happened in SCW!
Simone: Indeed they have, let's take it to Justin!
Justin: The following is a Mixed Tag Team Contenders Match scheduled for one fall!
Raise Your Glass by Pink hits the speakers and we see Bill Barnhart walk out from the backstage area holding a pink glass chalice in his hand. He is followed by his wife and Manager, Bea Barnhart, who is leading their English Bulldog Iris by a pink leash attached to her pink diamond-studded collar. When the song comes to the lyrics RAISE YOUR GLASS Bill Barnhart raises the chalice into the air. The crowd gives a mixed reaction to Barnhart. The three make their way to the ring where Bill hands the chalice to Bea so she can keep watch on it until the match is over. Bill enters the ring then walks around the ring playing the crowd before settling into a corner.
Justin: Introducing team #1, Bill and Bea, THE BARNHARTS!
Simone: Bill's had success as a singles wrestler, Bea? Not so much but that can change!
Adams: Especially if they pull out the win here!
Justin: And their opponents!
The lights go down and "Mine" by Halestorm starts to play. The arena is filled with Red and lights and fog. The Silhouette of Alexandra can be seen at the top of the ramp. She poses on the top of the ramp and as the beat drops, she starts to make her way down the ramp, towards the ring. Stopping halfway down the ramp, she stops looking out over the crowd, before continuing on. She smirks seeing some of the signs people made a cocky smirk crosses her face.
Justin: First, from DALLAS, TX.. ALEXANDRA CALAWAY!!!!!
Finishing her walk down the ramp, she climbs onto the ring apron and up onto the turnbuckle. She slips into the ring and poses on the ropes, leaning forward on the ropes, sometimes talking shit with people in front row. She watches up the ramp, messing with her hair as she waits for her partner.
Simone: Wasn't that long ago that Alexandra was enjoying her second reign as Roulette Champion, then Victoria Lyons ended that and her hopes of reclaiming the gold at Summer XXXTreme!
Adams: We'll see Victoria defend the title in the main even against Harper Mason but now the former champion has a chance to get her hands back on gold!
"Throne" by Bring Me The Horizon starts pumping through the speakers as Miles Kasey bops out onto the ramp in rhythm with the beat. He bounces in place twice before bolting towards the ring, sliding under the bottom rope, running into the adjacent ropes and handstand springboarding backwards into a superhero pose as the fans go crazy!
Justin: And her partner, from Manchester, England, MILES KASEY!
Simone: Miles has almost held every title in the men's division and that's not even counting the fact that he's now Carter's husband!
Adams: Though adding the Mixed Tag Titles to that list certainly wouldn't hurt!
Dawn goes over the rules with both teams before it's decided that the women will start the match as Alexandra and Bea remain in the ring and Miles and Bill step out.
Simone: Lots of history here, Bea was Alexandra's first opponent after she officially signed with SCW!
Adams: And now she seeks to beat Bea and Bill in this match!
DING DING DING!
Once the bell rings Alexandra and Bea circle around each other for a bit before they lock up in the middle of the ring! Alexandra backs Bea up to a corner where Alexandra backs off at Dawn's insistence only to charge in with a corner clothesline, Bea stumbles out of the corner and Alexandra kicks her in the stomach before dropping Bea with a Snap Suplex! Alexandra goes for the first pin of the match after floating ober.
ONE!
TWO!
And Bea kicks out!
Simone: Alexandra seemed to be testing the waters with that early pin attempt.
Adams: it'll take more than a clothesline and a Suplex to keep Bea down!
Alexandra shakes her head before she goes to pick up Bea only to get surprised with a roll up by Bea!
ONE!
TWO!
And Alexandra kicks out! Both women get back to their feet and they start brawling in the middle of the ring while their partners watch on from the ring apron, Miles gets the crowd behind Alexandra while Bill shouts words of encouragement at Bea but after a few moments Bea backs Alexandra up to the ropes where she tries to take the Texas to the floor only for Alexandra to backdrop Bea over the ropes and too the floor.
Simone: It started as a brawl and now Bea's on the outside!
Adams: And looks like Alexandra wants to take flight!
Bill rushes to his wife's side and upon seeing this Alexandra nods at Miles, the Brit gets the idea quickly and he enters the ring only too bolt across the ring and climb the turnbuckle nearest Bill, before they know it the Barnharts are hit with simultaneous dives from their opponents, Bill is hit with a moonsault press by Miles and Alexandra hits Bea with a regular dive over the ropes! Dawn restarts her count as the two teams lay sprawn out on the outside!
Simone: Both teams are down!
Adams: But only Alexandra and Bea are the legal wrestlers! Unless Miles and Bill help their partners back into the ring they can't do much right now!
Dawn's count reaches seven before Alexandra gets up, picks up Bea and throws her into the ring before following her in and going for a pin!
ONE!
TWO!
And Bea kicks out! Callaway looks ready to tag out to Miles but she realizes that he and Bill are still licking their wounds on the outside but this distraction leaves Alexandra open to a German Suplex from Bea which she bridges for a pin.
ONE!
TWO!
And Alexandra kicks out! By this point the match has taken a lot out of both women and with Milles and Bill back on the apron they are more than ready to tag out to their partners! And sure enough Bea tags out to Bill and Alexandra tags out to Miles.
Simone: And now the men are going to go at it!
Adams: bill ended Miles's Roulette Title Reign a couple of years ago so there's history here!
Miles comes in like a house on fire and lays into Bill with a series of clotheslines and dropkicks but Bill manages to cut off Miles's momentum with a knee lift to the midsection before backing his opponent up to the ropes where Bill goes for a whip across the ring, however on the rebound Miles leaps to the middle rope and hits Bill with cross body press! Miles goes for a pin as Dawn gets into position.
ONE!
TWO!
And Bill kicks out! Miles shakes his head before he picks up Bill only to get his eyes raked followed by Bill rolling up Miles.
ONE!
TWO!
And Miles gets the shoulder up! However Bill grabs the arm and locks in an arm bar in the middle of the ring and Dawn gets into position to check on Miles!
Simone: And now Miles is in trouble thanks to Bill's submission!
Adams: Miles will need that arm to execute the God Save The King finisher, Bill is being smart by targeting it.
Dawn asks Miles if he wants to submit but Miles refuses so Bill tries to crank up the pressure by leaning further back but this allows Miles to counter it into a pinning combination!
ONE!
TWO!
And Bill kicks out! Both men get to their feet but Bill is quicker to go on the attack, nailing Miles with a spear before he goes for the pin!
ONE!
TWO!
And Miles kicks out! Bill gets to his feet and calls for the end.
Simone: Bill's going for the Barnhart Shoulder Breaker!
Adams: If he gets this locked in it's over for Miles and Alexandra!
Bill waits for Miles to get back to his feet and goes for the Elevated Hammerlock but Miles counters it mid air into a victory roll which he rolls through and hits a standing double stomp onto Bill! Mils rolls toward the ring ropes, waits for Bill to get back to his feet and when he does Miles hits Bill with a springboard cutter.
Simone: And there's Miles with the Blast from the Past!
Adams: Stick a fork in Bill, he's done!
Miles goes for a pin!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
DING DING DING!
Justin: Here are your winners, Miles Kasey and Alexandra Callaway!
Simone: Miles and Alexandra are officially the next challengers for Kayla and Finn!
Adams: Wolfslair vs. Wolfslair, this will be good!
Miles and Alexandra celebrate while Bea checks on Bill.
Cameras found themselves back at the ringside area. A slow roaming camera caught the first row of fans as they were all cheering and getting their faces in the cameras. Showing just how excited they were, but the excitement was about to be sucked right out of the building. "The Devil In I." by Slipknot began to blare through the speaker system of the building. The very moment that song was heard the boos began to pour in. To the point it was drowning the music out in a matter of seconds.
A different camera angle cut was made to reveal Kevin Carter coming through the curtain with the Entity Mask in hand. Directly behind him J2H and Alexander Raven came walking out as well. The three men standing there at the top of the makeshift ramp with similar scowls on their faces while looking out at the booing crowd. It didn't last long before the three of them started to walk down towards the ramp keeping the cameras to remain focused on them.
Adams: It's about time. We were told we were going to hear from this man all night and the night is just about over.
Simone: I think it is more than clear Jason. Kevin does things at his own pace. For crying out loud he was under that mask seven months before revealing his identity to the world.
Adams: I want to know what the reason was. What the purpose was. We're owed that much!
At that point all three of them had reached the ringside area. Alexander took the stairs while holding that Roulette Championship in his hand. Kevin took the ring apron that faced the hard camera with J2H sliding himself into the ring. Alexander and J2H walked right behind Kevin who stood there on the apron slowly lifting his hand up with the Entity Mask in it. This didn't do either man a favor with the boos becoming a little stronger.
Simone: If this man's goal was to somehow become that much more hatred by revealing his identity. I think he accomplished it.
Adams: Well, I think that fits all three of them if we are being honest. Alexander already had the world hating on him with those silly conspiracy theories. J2H has never been lovable and anyone that hides behind a mask for as long as he did. It's the stuff made of cowards and no one likes a coward.
Simone: I'm not personally going to go as far as calling him a coward, but I can see why people might have that mindset about the man.
Kevin had now entered the ring with the other two men. The music was slowly starting to fade out as they approached the side of the ring and made motions with their hands. In a matter of seconds Justin had handed each man a microphone. Allowing them to turn and take the center of the ring. Now that the music was gone. Kevin tapped the top of the microphone to make sure it was on before bringing it up to speak and address the SCW crowd for the first time as himself in over a decade.
Kevin Carter: Eleven years is a long time.
A slight smirk crossed the man's lips.
Kevin Carter: And in the last eleven years. I've had time to grow as a person. I've had time to mature. I've had time to view things in a different light. Allowed myself to sit down, to think, to digest, and re-evaluate how my wrestling career had played out. To the point that I started to put the blame on myself and think that things didn't play out the way I wanted them to because of something to do with me, but that was quickly put to rest when I reached out about returning.
He had those eyes of his looking right into the stands. Seeing the rows and rows of fans that were making it more than clearly they didn't want to see him. It didn't slow him down.
Kevin Carter: I say reached out because I made the first initial contact with this company. Yet, not a single phone call was returned. Not a single email was returned. Christiian didn't get back in contact with me. Neither did that slimy, no good gas-lighting-backstabbing piece of shit known as Mark Ward. That's when it became clear that everything I felt when I left eleven years ago was real. This place wanted nothing to do with me. They did not want to acknowledge who I was, remember who I was, and have done everything they could to erase my name and legacy from the history books!
Each word coming out of his mouth now was getting a bigger reaction. The boos were getting louder once again. Instantly Kevin's face turned into a sour state as he began screaming at those fans in attendance.
Kevin Carter: Go ahead, boo me. Call me whatever names you want to call me. You're just as bad as the two men I mentioned. You people allowed my name to be forgotten. You allowed my legacy to be erased. Don't believe me?! When is the last time a video package of the greatest world champions this place has ever had was played showcased me?! Yet, none of you made a stink about it. When was the last time when this trash ass company came to Los Angeles did you people chant my name, the hometown hero?! Huh?! Hell, look at what happened a few weeks ago. Climax Control Four Hundred. So many big names returned. Most of them were old, crippled, and in many ways mentally disabled but they were given a chance to be a part of the show. Yet, no one ever called me and offered me a spot! And none of you batted an eye about it!
Lowering the microphone for a moment as his face had filled with a red color. Showcasing how upset he was, but he took just a second to pace in a small circle. Before raising the microphone back up.
Kevin Carter: Now after all these years have passed. I look around and I see none of the people you cheered for here. I see none of the people Mark flat out told me on countless occasions were better than me anywhere near this place. Where is Drake Green huh?! The man that was supposed to be the biggest fucking thing to ever come to Sin City Wrestling. Nowhere to be found. Let me guess, dead like his brother? Do I need to find his grave and piss on it too?! Ahhhh the memories!
It seemed to be a memory those fans remembered. The tone of the boos became more hate-filled with those few words that he had spoken.
Kevin Carter: What about Simon Jones? Nick Jones? Two men that everyone frothed at the mouth over. Two men that everyone said were going to be the ones that set the pace for this company's entire foundation and would carry it for years to come. Suddenly just gone, vanished, shriveled up and writhed away into nothingness. Or better yet, better than those two. What about your hero, Goth?! Huh?! I have hated that man since the day I stepped foot in this company all these years ago. But everyone got a hard on over him. People said he was so unique and so different. Brought something creative to the company. And the ego on that guy was something else. Always thought that he belonged in the main event. Always thought he was a World Champion. Thought he could compete with the best of the best. Thought that he should just be given everything because of who he was. It was insane to me.
The one they once called the Main Attraction stood there in the middle of the ring shaking his head from side to side.
Kevin Carter: But it didn't seem to be insane to any of you. Because you people bought into all of it. Fed into his bullshit, fed into his ego, and made him become the monster he was. It also didn't help with Mark and Christian backing him the way that they did. I will never forgive them for intentionally screwing me over in my first reign for that piece of shit. Say what you want, but that had a screw job written all over it. From front to fucking back. And all because they wanted to get a little sympathy pop for the man winning his first world title. It was not only wrong, but it was the most vile thing they could have ever done to me. Make me feel like I was beneath someone like Goth. But look at where Goth is now? I held onto that grudge for eleven years. Knowing there was going to come a time and a place where I would get a chance to get even for what happened. I did just that. You see, thanks to me, he's no longer here. The man literally could not handle the heat, especially when it was directly to the face!
Once again the arrogant and sadistic smirk crossed the man's lips. Allowing him to take that small stroll down memory lane, but it didn't settle well with the crowd. Not by a long shot.
Adams: These fans cannot stand this man. Kevin is quite literally just out here making them relive some of the worst things that have ever taken place. That inferno match was disgusting a few months back.
Simone: I honestly can't say that I'm surprised, Jason. He's clearly become obsessed with everyone remembering who he is and what he's capable of. He's going to make sure those memories are crammed down our throats.
Adams: Maybe if the guy was better than what he was. He wouldn't have been forgotten about in the first place. Anyone that makes a true defining moment doesn't have to constantly bring it up!
All of the sudden Kevin could be seen slowly lifting up the mask that he had in his hand once again. Keeping it held up as he went back to addressing the crowd.
Kevin Carter: Sadly, I had to do it inside this super mask because this place wouldn't give me the second chance that I deserved. It's a goddamn shame that from day one I was better than their golden child Drake Green. From day one I was better than Simon Jones and Nick Jones. And I was quite literally born better than Goth, but they wouldn't ever back me. They wouldn't ever get on board with me. And got bitter each time that I overcame whatever hurdle they put in front of me. Until they finally had the one thing over me I couldn't control and opted to not resign me back in two thousand thirteen. That was the only thing they could do to harm me. It worked in a lot of ways, but the saddest part is eleven years later this company is still as shady as ever. It's still as corrupt as ever. It has not improved for the better at any given moment. Along with Mark and Christian are still up to their dirty underhanded tactics. It's fucking disgusting!
Taking the mask in hand. He slammed it down to the ground and stomped on it for a dramatic effect. Before bringing his eyes back up and looking right to the hard-cam while pointing towards Alexander.
Kevin Carter: Take the man to the right of me. Alexander Raven, if you opted up your eyes and ears. Gave this man the time of day. You would see that he has the main event written all over him. You would see that he should have already been a multi-time World Champion by now. You would see that this is a man you should be building your company's future around, but you are treating him the same exact way that you treated me when I first came in. You say you don't see it. You say you don't think he's that special. You say he's a good hand to have, but that's all he is. The fucking amount of disrespect and shade you have shown this man is unreal!
Alex rolls his head neck a little, tapping his microphone on the Roulette Championship slung over his shoulder. He raises his free hand to his head, rubbing at his temple a little, slowly bringing the mic up to his mouth. Pacing back and forth a little.
Alexander Raven: Oh how things turn around. How these things come about, and every single time I am proven right once again. Every fucking week, I bust my ass. Every single week I come out to this ring and make everyone around me look better for it. Every week I do something that makes people talk. These two men? They saw it. In fact, they may two of the only people with their fucking eyes open. Kevin knows what it is like to be in my shoes. To be overlooked, to be looked down on. To be considered less than you actually are. The man who was the world changer eleven years ago. The man who now stands to change it all over again. The man who has his eyes open.
Turning on his heel, Alex storms forward and climbs up onto the middle and top rope. He raises his championship in the air, to the chagrin of the attending crowd. Shaking his head a little, a smile creeping across his face. Visible frustration and rage in his yes.
Alexander Raven: Everything I touch turns into fucking gold. I made the Internet Championship relevant again. After James and I went to war for a second time, he saw the writing on the wall that there were no-one else close to being good enough to step up, and now? This championship is on lock. I decide who gets a shot. I decided who gets a chance. I decide, because I am the one that matters. I am the workhorse. I am the Napalm Kingslayer. I am Alexander fucking Raven, and I will force them to change. I will not sit quietly by whilst the abortion of fairness continues to happen. Whilst Mark and Christian parade about pretending like they are doing anything but keeping their favourites in warm graces. Ignoring and hating those of us who work, sweat and bleed for this business. If they won't acknowledge what I do, then I'm going to change the rhetoric. These men with me? Kevin Carter and J2H? We're not going to let things stand. I'm going to take this championship to the fucking main event, and nobody will be able to deny me any longer.
Kevin stood there looking at Alexander finish making his statement. Before bringing his microphone back to his own lips.
Kevin Carter: You see your mistakes now, Mark and Christian? Of course not. Because this man to the left of me. James Huntington Hawkes, the third or better known to you as J2H. It's rare you get two gold childs in a wrestling company, but you got one with J2H. Not that long after Drake Green couldn't handle the pressure and disappeared. Opposite of Alexander and I, from day one you were behind J2H. From day one you set him up to succeed. Out the gate you said J2H was going to be something and you were right. James crushed it. Winning every championship he ever wanted. Being a terrorizer to the Main Event scene. A four time World Heavyweight Champion. And if memory serves me correctly, the longest reigning and youngest World Heavyweight Champion this place has ever seen. Where as some might view me as the past, Alexander should have been your future, but J2H he was always your present!
There was a brief close up shot of J2H standing there next to Kevin with a scowl on his own face. Before the camera cut back to Kevin.
Kevin Carter: But you managed to fumble the ball with J2H. You managed to let down a true generational talent. A man that was bringing eyes to this company that had never been seen before. You made the man feel like he was wasting his time. You fed him the same boring useless talent over and over again. You never found ways to truly challenge him as a competitor. You didn't go out there and bring in new talent. To bring a challenge to him. You simply just wasted James for years to the point he got sick and tired of it. To the point he felt there was no use. To the point he was vacating championships and going on vacations with his family because there was truly nothing for him here anymore. To the point this man didn't feel as if he was needed here which in reality he was always needed. How could you make one of the best things you ever had feel that way?!
J2H: Right under your fucking noses.
J2H smirks as the crowd boos.
J2H: Not one of your fucking idiots had a clue. We had you on the hook from day one, we got you to take notice of everything we did. That's something you fuck wits should have been doing from day one but you pissed on everything we did. Why is Alexander Raven getting chances in the main event, why is J2H being shoved down our throats again? Why, why, why?
He mockingly wipes his eyes.
J2H: And this man...
J2H points at Kevin.
J2H: You pissed all over him when he was a champion, yet he played his part in out smarting every last one of you. We dragged you in, because we could. Alexander and I kicked the shit out of each other to grab you in. Me and Kevin Carter dragged you the fuck in, while you all sat there opened mouth and not seeing for a second that our power was growing by the day until we ran this place. Now you know who's in charge and it sure as suit ain't those two suits, my friend here took care of one half of the odd couple and he's never coming back. I saw what you couldn't and with the right people, we could take over and I'm standing here with those people.
The crowd voiced their dislike the entire time J2H had been speaking to him. Kevin stood there shaking his head from side to side.
Kevin Carter: Again, this is what I mean by you people are just as much apart of the problem as Mark, Christian, and this company as a whole. You never accepted and embraced J2H. Like you should have. Instead you wanted to make it known you'd never support the man because he didn't cater to your egos or say the things you wanted him to say. No different than with Alexander. Because he spoke up and spoke the truth. Because he was willing to call things out the way they needed to be called out. You saw him as difficult, as problematic, and shunned him. Then of course I already touched on how guilty you are for what's been done to me. You all deserve to rot in hell for your sins!
Clearly those comments didn't go well. The crowd began to start chanting "asshole" at the top of their lungs. Kevin's smirk only grew.
Kevin Carter: It's about goddamn time something is done. Time for you two to pay for your sins. Time for this company to crumble to ash and the three of us are going to be the ones to do it. Doesn't matter how you view us, doesn't matter who you put in front of us, and doesn't matter what you think you're capable of doing in stopping us. It will not happen and we will...
Before he could finish his statement. "Bad Man" by Polo G hit the arena's speakers and there was an instant positive reaction that consumed the fans. Not the usual for that music, but all three men stopped what they were doing and glared up at the entrance way. It took only a matter of seconds before a very angry Jayden Harris could be seen coming out.
Simone: Listen to that crowd! Who knew Jayden would be so loved over here?!
Adams: Let's not get too far ahead of ourselves. I think they would have cheered for anyone that walked out here as long as it shut them up!
Simone: Maybe, but I think after what went down at Summer XXXtreme. These people want to see Jayden get even. I know I'm one of those people.
All three men stood their ground in the ring with Jayden starting to take a couple of steps down the make-shift ramp with his music fading out. Lifting the microphone that he had in his hand. Jayden's eyes were narrowed on them.
Jayden Harris: Everyone is tired of hearing you talk. All these people sitting out here. Everyone in the back. Everyone that is watching on the webcast. And I'm done hearing you talk.
His eyes were narrowed a little more as he was about half way down the little ramp at that point
Jayden Harris: And since y'all think you're so fucking slick with the shit you pulled two weeks ago. I've learned the only way to make you shut up is by making you fight and I came to fight tonight!
Following those words he tossed the microphone behind him and started to charge towards the ring with force. It was clear what he had in mind. Kevin quickly bringing the microphone up in an attempt to control the situation.
Kevin Carter: Hey kid! We knew you'd pull something like this, and you might want to chill for a second because we got something to show you!
Jayden found himself stopping just as he was about to reach the ring. His eyes remained fueled with hate as he looked at the three of them standing in the ring. All of which they were pointing to direct Jayden's attention to behind him. As the second generation star turned around there was a giant screen coming down showcasing a video on it.
---
On the deck of the cruiseship there was a close up shot of none other than Michael Harris. As he laid on the deck gasping for air blood could be seen starting to trickle down his forehead. Suddenly someone grabbed a hold of the man's hair and yanked him up to his knees. As the cameras began to pan out a little that person turned out to be none other than Kevin.
Kevin Carter: You want to stick your nose in my business you old prick?! Huh?! Do you?!
Harris attempted to swing at Kevin despite being in no position to do so. He swung and missed as Kevin laughed. That's when Kevin took his knee and rammed it in the side of the man's head knocking him to the ground. Cameras zoomed out a little more to reveal that Alexander Raven and J2H were right there. Now taking the time to stomp on the older man to keep him down.
Alexander Raven: You were always part of the fucking problem, you stupid cunt. Austin and Miles? You picked Austin and Miles over me? You're not going to duck me now! You're going to get everything you deserve.
This was prompted with a stomp from Raven right onto the back of Harris' neck. Right away he found himself clutching the back of his neck while withering in pain. The three on one assault was far too much to overcome. Kevin turned back around and grabbed a hold of Harris's hair starting to yank him back to his feet. Raven joined in while holding both of Harris' arms behind his back as Kevin pulled him up the rest of the way.
Kevin Carter: All you had to do is let us teach that immature child of yours a lesson. That's all you had to do, but you wanted to play father of the year. You wanted to seem like you were the toughest son of a bitch walking. Now you can pay for your sins.
Taking a step back Kevin came forward and this time drilled his leg right between the legs of Harris causing him to nearly fall back down, but due to Raven holding his arms back it kept him upright for the time being. That's when J2H stepped forward and forced Harris to look up at him.
J2H: Look me in the fucking eyes.
J2H leaned closer.
J2H: You ran from me once. Just like the little bitch that you are. Did you think I was gonna forgive and forget that? Did you think I was gonna be like one of those pussies out there that would let you get away with that? I was never letting you run from me again. Now I get to do what I should have done along time ago.
Following the words of J2H. He motioned for Raven to drag him over to the side of the cruise ship. Kevin takes it upon himself to help carry the seemingly deadweight of the older man with Raven. The ship was cruising along on the water. The night sky made it impossible to see the sea, but it could be heard plain as simple.
J2H: You thought you was gonna get the heroes welcome, one more cheer from the crowd? No, you were never the hero, you were never anything. Now things end for you as just a worthless piece of shit, the same way you lived your life. No one's even gonna miss you.
Harris was forced to look over the side of the ship thanks to J2H forcing his head up. All for a brief moment before the three of them found themselves lifting the battered legend up and in a single toss, Harris was thrown overboard. He could be heard screaming for a brief moment before his body hit the water with a splash and the ship kept moving forward past him. Kevin, Raven, and K2H peered over the edge of the ship for a few seconds as the video came to a close.
--
The silence that consumed the crowd was eerie as they had just witnessed the same thing Jayden did. A state of shock was plastered all over the second generation star's face. As he dropped to his knees feeling and continued to stare up at the now blank screen in clear disbelief.
Adams: What did we just witness?!
Simone: I am pretty sure we just witnessed a crime!
Adams: Wow, I just am at a loss for words right now. That man might've been a pain in the ass, but he didn't deserve that.
Simone: There needs to be something done about this!
Adams: But what?! The damage is clearly already done.
Inside the ring the cameras caught Kevin, Raven, and J2H starting to climb out of the ring. All had sinister smirks across their expressions as they backed up to the point they were hopping over the barricade to disappear into the crowd. Cameras cut back over to a visibly emotional Jayden, the sadness in his eyes were one thing but the red color and the anger that was starting to overcome the rest of his face was a scary sight to see. Cameras found themselves cutting away from the ringside area and into the back for the time being.
The scene opens backstage at Climax Control where we see tonight's challenger for the Bombshell Roulette Championship Harper Mason warming up for the match against Victoria.
Harper: Alexandra, Bella, Mercedes, three veteran bombshells who failed to dethrone Victoria at Summer XXXTreme.
Harper comments as she folds her arms.
Harper: And now? It's my turn, a woman who hasn't even wrestled for a full two years yet, hell I'm still a teenager, my twentieth birthday is next month, can I do what those three women couldn't?
Harper grins as stares into the camera.
Harper: One way to find out!
Harper walks off as the scene fades.
The scene opens backstage, where we see Miss Rocky Mountains standing in front of the Roulette wheel as she prepares to spin the wheel. On either side of her is Harper Mason and the Bombshell Roulette Champion - Victoria Lyons.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: Ladies and Gentlemen… with me at this time is Harper Mason and Victoria Lyons as they wait for the spin of the Roulette Wheel for their main event match.
MRM steps back and approaches the wheel and grabs a peg.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: Ready ladies… here we go.
They both nod and MRM pulls on the wheel and releases and the wheel spins around… as various matches zip past the red pointer.
Death Match > I Quit > Falls count anywhere > Hell in a cell > TLC…
All these zip pasts before the wheel slows down and eventually stops.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: This match will be a Last Woman Standing match… and you will have a special guest referee.
Harper and Victoria both frown.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: This special guess referee is…
MRM smiles before looking to the door and both ladies follow her gaze as well as the camera to reveal – SCW Hall of Famer and legend… Amy Santino. You can hear the fans roar with approval.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: Amy Santino.
Amy steps forward with a smile as Harper smiles and Victoria shakes her head.
Amy: Harper… Victoria. Good Luck… and don't do anything too stupid.
MRM smiles, as Harper nods and walks away pleased, while Victoria steps forward and gets into Amy's face.
Victoria: I hope you know what you are doing.
Amy smirks.
Amy: Don't worry I am pretty sure I can count to ten.
Amy says sarcastically.
Victoria: Make sure you don't fuck that up. Don't need your old ass making this about you and your comeback.
Victoria sneers at Amy before walking off, leaving Amy and MRM alone. Amy rolls her eyes as MRM breaks the silence.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: good to see you.
Amy: You too. Now to find some stripes.
Amy smiles and walks away leaving MRM by the roulette wheel as the scene fades out on the roulette wheel.
Justin: This match has been determined by the roulette wheel and will be last woman standing match… and is also for the Bombshell Roulette Championship. Introducing first… tonight's special guest referee…
Victim of Me by The 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 surveys the crowd as they appreciate Amy. She smooths out the striped top before moving down the ramp, as slaps the hands of the awaiting fans, she then climbs into the ring, where she then climbs the turnbuckles and surveys the crowd before climbing back down and heads to the corner, where she takes off the mask and proceeds to bow to the Japanese fans before moving to the centre of the ring to wait for the fighters.
Justin: Introducing first…
Jonathon Young's cover of "New Divide" by Linkin Park hits the speakers and Harper emerges from the back throwing some kicks in the air to the opening beat as her manager Joshua Acquin watches on with approval, once the initial lyrics hit Harper does a spinning roundhouse kick before dropping to one knee and throwing up the Devil Horns.
Justin: From Orlando, Florida and being accompanied by Joshua Acquin, she is the "Slaytanic Avenger" HARPER MASON!
Once Harper hears her name called she jumps to her feet with a massive grin on her face, she sprints down to the ring clapping hands with the fans at ringside before she jumps into the ring and down a forward roll landing on her knees and grinning broadly, ready to throw down with her opponent, Josh applauds his charge from the outside as they wait her opponent.
Justin: And her opponent… hailing from Charlotte, North Carolina. She is the current Bombshell Roulette Champion… The Head Lyoness… Victoria Lyons.
The arena lights dim as "Sweet Dreams" by Vin Jay plays, and Victoria Lyons appears onstage with the Roulette Championship sitting around her waist. She makes her slow and haunting walk to the ring. She glares at some of the fans, and even bites at a few as she passes by. As she gets in the ring, the lights go back on, as Victoria raises her arms in a V in he middle of the ring, as if looking for worship, and giving the camera a creepy smile.
She slips off the Roulette champion from her waist and raises it high up in the air, as Amy steps forward, where she looks to take the championship off Lyons. Lyons looks at Amy and sneers at her before handing her the championship. Amy moves to the corner to hand it off before indicating for the bell to be rung…
DING DING DING!
Lyons and Mason circle the ring, as Amy takes a step backwards to allow them space. As Mason moves in and offers out a handshake, which Lyons look at it with some contempt before taking it, but she drags Mason in with a vicious clothesline sending her down to the mat. Mason sits up rocked, but Lyons drops to a knee and trash talks her before grabbing a handful of hair before throwing her backwards before mounting Mason and again aims more insults at her before unloading a series of punches before letting go and standing to her feet and moves away, as Amy moves in…
Simone: Here we go… Lyons and Mason circle the ring, as Mason offers her hand and Lyons takes it but Lyons merely drags Mason in for a clothesline. Mason is rocked and Lyons moves in and she begins to break down Mason.
Adams: It's great to see Amy back in a SCW ring.
Simone: It is but let's focus on the match at hand.
ONE!
TWO!
Mason slowly climbs to her feet, as she checks her face for blood but none, as Lyons moves in and grabs Mason by the head and drags her across the ring to a corner, where she drives her face into the top turnbuckle. Mason drops down to the mat, but Lyons grabs Mason again pulling her up and then begins to drive boots into Mason's stomach a few times before grabbing her hand and pulls her from the corner and sends her across the ring, where Lyons follows close behind, however, Mason pushes herself up to dodge Lyons, as Lyons dives past and Mason drops down behind Lyons. Lyons turns around and Mason hits three forearm shots to Lyons, which rocks her, and Mason then turns and rushes forward and bounces off the ropes and Lyons steps forward Mason catches Lyons with a flying clothesline sending Lyons down to the mat.
Adams: Amy is needed right away, and she gets to two before Mason is back to her feet, as Lyons moves in and grabs Mason and drags her across the ring to a corner, where she drives her face into the turnbuckle. Again, Mason is rocked but Lyons isn't done and unleashes a series of boots to Mason's stomach.
Simone: Lyons stops and grabs Mason hands and sends her across the ring, but Mason dodges Lyons attack and Mason follows up with forearm shots on Lyons. Lyons is stunned and Mason moves and bounces off the ropes and she catches Lyons with a clothesline.
Mason goes for a cover as she momentarily forgets that it's last woman standing and Amy does start to count…
ONE!
TWO!
Adams: Mason goes for a cover… Amy counts but the main stipulation.
Mason climbs off Lyons, as Lyons sits up holding her chest and breathing heavily, as Mason grabs Lyons and pulls her up to her feet, where she fires in a forearm shot, which Lyons stumbles backwards but Mason grabs her hand and goes to Irish whip her, but Lyons counters and sends Mason into a corner and Lyons goes to follow up with a splash, but Mason dodges and slips through the ropes and onto the apron, where Mason goes for a wild swing but Lyons blocks it and grabs Mason and tries to drive her face into the top turnbuckle but Mason now blocks it and grabs Lyons and drives her face into the turnbuckle. Lyons is rocks, as Mason leaps off the apron and she grabs Lyons' legs and drags her down to the mat. Once Lyons is down, Mason adjusts her grip so that the ring post in the middle and she drags Lyons towards her and then she proceeds to tie up Lyons before locking in a figure four leg lock.
Simone: Mason grabs Lyons and pulls her to her feet, where she rocks Lyons with a forearm shot. Mason grabs Lyons hand and goes for a Irish whip, but Lyons counters and sends Mason into the corner and Lyons looks for a splash but Mason dodges.
Adams: She slips out through the ropes, as both try to drive each other face into the top turnbuckle but both times blocked before Mason actually drives Lyons' face into the turnbuckle.
Simone: Mason leaps off the apron and she grabs Lyons' legs and pulls and sends her down to the mat, where she drags Lyons forward and wraps her up in a figure four leg lock around the ring post.
Adams: Ouch!
Lyons screams out in pain as Mason pulls on Lyons' legs as Amy watches on impressed with the submission hold before Mason releases. Amy moves in and begins to count…
ONE!
TWO!
Lyons untangles herself from the ring post and rolls off the apron to the outside.
Simone: Mason releases and backs off.
THREE!
FOUR!
Mason stands back and watches before climbing back into the ring.
FIVE!
Lyons sits up holding a knee…
SIX!
Adams: Amy up to six, but Lyons is back to her feet.
Lyons slowly much surely gets back to her feet, still reeling from the figure four leg lock as Mason moves to the ropes and climbs through the ropes and waits before leaping off and hitting a crossbody onto Lyons and sends her back down. Mason slowly makes her way back to her feet, as Amy slides herself from the ring and begins a count…
Simone: As Lyons gets back to her feet, Mason climbs from the ring and hits a crossbody. Mason gets back to her feet and stands back.
ONE!
TWO!
Mason climbs back into the ring, where she looks over the ropes and watches Lyons…
THREE!
FOUR!
Lyons slowly moves to a knee, as Mason moves to the corner, where she begins to climb the ropes to the top but Lyons looks up and scrambles backwards.
Adams: Mason watches and stalks but Lyons moves away from Mason.

Lyons leans against the barriers, as her music hits over the p.a, before she stands and demands Amy to raise her hand up. Which Amy does and Lyons smirks as she looks down at Mason as Joshua Acquin moves in and checks on her.
Simone: Well what a night but that's all we have time for...
Adams: Actually....
Following the bell Victoria raises her hand and suddenly we hear New Years Day hit the sound system and Bella Madison steps out onto the stage with a slow cap and Victoria turns to her and raises the SCW Bombshell Roulette Title high as Bella just stands there with a smirk and without a second thought she flips Victoria the bird while motioning that she wants that title as we see the SCW logo.
