The sun is setting over the sea aboard the Sun Princess, giving everyone the unique experience of this, the traditional wrestling program hosted on a luxury ocean cruise liner. A spotlight begins to shine and the crowd of Saxon staff and families and SCU/GRIME stars cheer as ring announcer Justin Decent steps out onto the stage, bare chested with white lycra pants with gold stripe down the side, black neck tie and a sailor hat with gold anchor detail on the front. 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 as he runs up the ring steps and climbs inside of the six-sided SCW ring and walks around, pumping his fist in the air to the tune of the crowd's chants;
Crowd: SCW! SCW! SCW!
Justin then hops up onto the corner turnbuckle and smiles, looking out around the ship at all of the fans filling the seats. 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 the Sun Princess Cruise for the sixth annual Summer XXXTreme VIII!
The crowd cheers!
Justin: Now please help me welcome the Hostess With the Mostess for "Climax Control" -- Miss Amanda Hugginkiss!
The crowd applauds and cheers as Amanda steps out onto the stage, dressed in a white sundress with pink and red hearts 'dotted' all over it! With a skip in her step, she pops open a frilly, pink umbrella and begins the performance.
Amanda:You know I'm getting older and I've gained some weight, too.
If there's a camera up in here, that's taking photographs of me, then it's true, that you.
Retouch my body.
Give me a tiny waist, because I eat like a slob.

In my imagination I am just twenty-two.
I'm way too busy to do Jenny, Weight Watchers, too.

Erase under my eyes, where it is wrinkled and dark.
Your resume says that you worked on Jurassic Park.
If there's a camera up in here, that's taking photographs of me, then it's true, that you.
Must sign this confidentiality agreement in blood, or else you, will get sued.
'Cause if I end up on Perez Hilton looking like a Lez, I will hunt you down.

Retouch my body.
I refuse to take the stairs.
Make me fucking young and sweet.
Get rid of my cellulite.
I don't want no photo, boy.
I want an oil painting.
Don't cause any trouble.
I am in denial.
Don't you burst my bubble.
Retouch my body.
Just look at Madonna.
In real life she looks like an ancient iguana.
Retouch my body.
And if you can, of course,
Try and make me look like less of a horse.
Retouch my body.
I've no other choice.
I only wish you could retouch my voice.
Retouch, retouch, retouch, retouch.
Retouch, retouch, retouch, retouch.
Retouch, retouch, retouch, retouch.
Retouch, retouch, retouch, retouch.
The crowd applauds and cheers as Amanda curtsies and makes her exit backstage, vanishing behind the curtains.
Simone: Hello everyone and welcome one and all to the Sun Princess for the eighth annual Summer XXXTreme! I am Belinda Simone!
Adams: And I'm the winner of the 2020 Nude Limbo Contest -- Jason Adams!
Simone: Jason, I told you before that was not a real contest! It was just something Helluva Bottom Carter cooked up for amusement!
Adams: I don't believe it. Amusement? What's so amusing about a nude limbo ... oh. Ohhhh!
Simone: isn't it nice when all the gears turn when they're supposed to? And in tonight's opener, three men vie for the right to challenge the Roulette Champion, whomever he might be, at Violent Conduct VI when El Dark, Miles Kasey and Mason Alexander Vanderbilt all go toe to toe, and the first man to score the pinfall or submission is the Supercard challenger!
Adams: Jack Washington had a setback against Ben Jordan but he's back in the ring and this time he's going up against Agostino Romano!
Simone: Daniela V. Rodgers is anxious to work her way back up and get a return match for that Bombshell Roulette Champion, but first and foremost she has to face and get past one of the best in Samantha Marlowe!
Adams: Then it's the first title match of the night, and it's for the SCU TV Championship when the champion Holly Wood defends against Brother David!
Simone: And then it's the first title match for SCW, and it's the traditional Ultimate X Over the Pool match for the Bombshell Roulette title! It's the champion Seleana Zdunich fighting to retain against not only Keira Fisher-Johnson, but also Maki and Jessie Salco! The first one to get the title belt from the X is the champion! And if you fall into the pool, you're out of the match!
Adams: Then it's the Battle of the Rock Stars! Teddy Warren-Steele up against Caleb Storms! No matter what, these two guys are going to put on a fun match! And ... is either of these guys REALLY a rock star?
Simone: Maybe in their heads. Then it's the Ultimate X match for the Roulette title! The champion Kedron Williams hopes to retain against three credible challengers in O'Malley, Lachlan Kane and Stephen Callaway!
Adams: Then it's the Warrior's Brawl for the GRIME Nightmare Championship! Former SCW Superstar and current Nightmare Champion Max Burke defends against SEVEN challengers! Samuel McPherson! Javier Gonzalez! Jake and Jack Jeckel! Gold! Hitamashii and Yellow! Things look bad for the Nightmare Champion!
Simone: Kris Ryans and Mikah look to move further up the standings in the mixed tag division, but aboard this ship they face the husband and wife duo of the Barnharts -- Beatrice and "Bulldog Bill Barnhart!
Adams: Then Myra Rivers finally gets a chance to prove that she still belongs where she is inside of the ring when she challenges Kate Steele for the Internet Championship! Kate has not been pinned or submitted yet in 2020 so let's see if Myra will do what nobody else has been able!
Simone: The feud between Candy and Violet Amelia Holt took a personal turn when Violet 'dog napped' Candy's canine companion, Fluffy. Candy got her pet back but now we may see a new side to Candy, and Violet might not like it!
Adams: The World Mixed Tag Team titles are on the line as Sass and Bash finally get a title shot to themselves but the Wolfslair has been so dominant! Can anyone beat them for the gold?
Simone: Then it's a Triple Threat for the GRIME Nightmare title as the champion, Vixen Staggs, defends against two vile threats in Ruby and Kittie!
Adams: Then it's a battle of two of the greatest in the Bombshell division when Christina Rose goes up against Mercedes Vargas and this one is two out of three falls to remove any and all doubt!
Simone: Then the SCU Television title is defended in a First Blood match when the champion Angel Kash defends against Melissa Ruin!
Adams: It's a rematch from 2019! Last year at Summer XXXTreme VII, Senor Vinnie challenged and beat Austin James Mercer for the World Heavyweight title! Now Austin defends the Internet Championship against Vinnie! Can and will history repeat itself??
Simone: Amber Ryan shocked everyone when she turned on Roxi Johnson, brutally attacking her with a fireball that sent her to the hospital with temporary blindness. Now Roxi is back and she's going for a pound of flesh from Amber and she will get it because this match is No Disqualification!
Adams: Griffin Hawkins is FINALLY getting what he's been wanting ever since he was in his first reign as Roulette Champion! He is facing and challenging "the Cockney King" Ben Jordan for the World Heavyweight Championship!
Simone: And then we have the Main Event for the evening! The World Bombshell Championship is on the line as Evie Jordan faces her toughest test yet, defending against not one but TWO top level challengers and former champions in their own right; Alicia Lukas and Andrea Hernandez! All this and more on Summer XXXTreme VIII!
The camera quickly goes to the ring where Christian Underwood stands with a microphone.
Christian: Ladies and gentlemen, every year, Summer XXXTreme VIII has a guest host or hosts, and this year will be no different. They have asked that they would not be known till this point. Well the time has come to reveal....
The dull sound of a helicopter can be heard in the distance. Christian stops and looks around.
Christian: What the hell?
The sounds of the spinning blades come closer, and Christian rolls his eyes as he looks at the helicopter coming closer.
Adams: Is it me, or is that thing heading this way?
Simone: It looks like it.
The helicopter comes closer and moves towards a landing pad on the ship, hovering over and getting lower as Christian looks at Justin Decent shrugging his shoulders. The helicopter lands and people look towards it. Every light lighting up the ring and surrounding area shuts off.
Simone: I don't know what's going on here.
Gold lights start flashing around the deck as "Lights Out" by P.O.D blasts through the speakers.
Simone: No way!
Christian: Ladies and gentlemen, your guest hosts for Summer XXXTreme VIII J...2....H AND MELODY GRACE!
The people surrounding the ring scream out as Melody Grace steps out of the helicopter and looks around and a small child is handed to her.
Adams: J2H must have shrunk or something.
Simone: That's James Jr. He's adorable.
Adams: I don't know why he'd want a helicopter.
Simone: He's always loved a big entrance.
J2H stands up and jumps out the helicopter and looks around from the top deck towards the ring. He looks at Melody as the crowd screams out for them and he puts his arm around Melody. He reaches in to the helicopter and pulls out two microphones and hands one to Melody. He runs his finger across his throat to stop the music and the music fades out.
J2H: Don't worry Christian, we've brought our own microphones and we'll do it from here, cause I am not gonna be that close to the great unwashed down there.
J2H points around the booing crowd as James Jr grabs his free hand, and Melody's free hand.
J2H: First off, someone take a mop and bucket backstage, cause somewhere back there, Teddy Warren just pissed his pants.
Melody looks at her husband and leans in, lifting her microphone to her lips.
Melody: I think what he's trying to say is welcome to Summer XXXTreme VIII!
The crowd of wrestlers, staff and family cheer.
J2H: Yeah, something like that, but just to be safe, someone check on Teddy.
J2H smirks. Melody gives J2H a glare but she can't help but smile proudly at her husband.
J2H: So in the midst of a pandemic, SCW keeps the tradition alive, so I guess that means we have to too by talking about the shit that's on this card. Opening match, El Dark is probably one of the worst wrestlers I think I've ever seen, guy can't cut a promo for shit. I have no fucking clue who Miles Kasey is, don't fucking care and the guy with the longest name in wrestling, ok, I like him. He reminds me as a poor man's version of me. But yeah, one of them are gonna win, don't care who.
J2H shrugs his shoulders as he looks at Melody and down to James Jr, holding his free hand as well as Melody's.
J2H: Then you'll be treated to the shit show that is Jack Washington against Agostino Romero. Man Jack must be pissed from nearly being world champion to facing some guy who gets a stiffy over bikes.
J2H nods to Melody.
Melody: Then it's the ladies time to shine as we get the witness the delightful and beautiful Sam take on the Dangerous Daniela... this one is going to kick the night off for the bombshell's and believe me, they are going to life the roof of this place, uhh, ummm boat.
J2H: Me again? It's an SCU match, I have to talk about that too? Some dude looks like a lady is facing some other dude who likes religion. Mz Holly Wood vs Brother David. I'm sure if there was a crowd here, no one would have paid to see that.
J2H's sarcastic tones ring out through the ship. James Jnr flashes the camera a cheeky smile stealing the show for a moment.
Melody: Then we move pool side to see first of the Ultimate X Over the Pool battles. This one is between Seleana, Keira, Jessie and Maki battle it out for the Bombshell roulette championship. Sel has got her work cut out for her tonight, but since being gift wrapped the championship to begin with, all her future matches as the champion will be an up hill battle. Anyways, I hope they packed their bikinis because before the night is over three of them will be soaking wet. Pro tip, white t-shirts not a good idea out there tonight, keep those ladies covered.
J2H smirks while Melody blushes.
J2H: Then you got Teddy Warren, hopefully wearing clean pants against Caleb Storms. Ladies and gentlemen, please wear a mask during this one, cause this is gonna stink the place up, seriously. With Teddy and his pissed pants and Caleb looking like he doesn't know what a shower is, this one is gonna reek.
J2H shakes his head.
J2H: And the men's Roulette title, shit, Melody explained the women's one, just replace the names with the son of a witch Kedron Williams, Mr always falling too short and moaning about it on Twitter Lachlan Kane, some Scottish guy who can't wait to get his ass out the door, Stephen Callaway, good job giving him a shot at something when he don't wanna be here, and the biggest disappointment of Misty's life, O'Malley.
The people boo J2H's comment but he shrugs.
J2H: And I ain't even going through the list of names for that shit Warrior's Brawl match, but Max Burke is gonna ruin those guys anyway.
J2H looks at James Jr who nods his head up and down.
Melody: OHHH now we move onto the mixed tag team match, team BS... that's an awful team name but anywho, we have Mikah and Kris taking on the barn animals in a mixed tag team style match up. I wonder if the arena will set Mikah off as this boat holds sooooo many memories for her? Although Kris seems to have her on track for her first super card win since returning. Will Bill and Bea have what it takes to dethrone the team of Mikah and Kris, the team that many people believe will be the future Mixed Tag Team Champions...
J2H: Am I the only one who finds it weird that Mikah's waving those fake plastic tits of hers around with her new boyfriend in the same place she got married to that loser Drake Green?
He shrugs again.
Melody: Then it's my Co Star and Best friend for life Kate Steele taking on Myra. My money is on Kate... woooooo get it girl!!! You keep that Internet Championship!!!!!! You deserve it!!
J2H looks over at Melody who is shouting in excitement for Kate's match. James Jnr just looks at J2H with a confused look on his little face.
Melody: Followed by Candy versus Violet. I'm calling it now, gimmick infringement for the use of unicorns and glitter but what can I say, I'm a trend setter!! Hold onto your hats everyone because this match is going to be a whirlwind of color, glitter and hairspray!
Melody smirks towards the camera.
Melody: Me again? Wooo I love it. Next match is for the Mixed Tag Team Titles, team Sass and Bash up against the champions Wolfslair... which is weird because I thought wolfs lived in dens but hahah I'm not a animal science lady.
J2H chuckles at Melody's air headedness before she continues.
Melody: WOW and the ladies just keep on coming.
J2H smirks catching Melody's attention.
Melody: I see where I went wrong there... however, later on tonight we will witness Kittie and Ruby unmasked as they take on Vixen for the Grime Nightmare Championship. I'm calling it now this will be the match of the night hands down, no body and I mean no body can hold it down like Vixen can and tonight will be no different.
Melody smiles.
Melody: Then it's time to treat yourself to a 2 out of 3 falls match between Crystal and Mer-IStillCantBeatMelody-cedes!!! This match has been building for years and it all comes down to tonight winner takes all the pride and I honestly have no idea which way this is going to go.
Melody takes a big inhale before she rolls into the next match.
Melody: Angel Kash and Melissa Ruin are set to lock horns and THERE WILL BE BLOOD!
Melody looks over to J2H giving him the heads up that it's his turn again.
J2H: I gotta talk about that cactus fucking thing?
Melody nods.
J2H: Fine, some guy who has an unhealthy obsession with plant life, Senor Vinnie, will be getting his ass kicked so hard, his two personalities will turn in to seven when Austin James Mercer does what we all want to do and shut that weird little man up.
Melody: Now would be a good time to put the littlest viewers to bed because it's Roxi and Amber going one on one in a no disqualification match up and if last climax control wasn't a preview of what these two ladies are willing to do to each other than you really have no idea. Tonight won't be about the business, It's personal... you got this Roxi, teach Amber a lesson on what we do to bullies.
Melody blows Roxi a kiss before she looks back at James.
J2H: And now for the good stuff. I spoke to Griffin Hawkins a while ago, I told him to stop being this sad pathetic loser. Tonight Griffin, if you want my respect, if you want me to think you got it in you, go get that championship belt from Ben Jordan, stop him before he gets any closer to breaking my record. You lose, you're fucked.
Melody: But wait there's more. Tonight's main event is very much the cherry on top, where we get to witness Alicia and Andrea challenge Evie Jordan and attempt to dethrone the Aussie champion in her first ever defence. Alicia has been waiting for this moment since Bobbie took her out a few months back, Andrea has been begging for this since Into the Void... tonight 3 ladies with big dreams will walk into the main event but only 1 will walk away with the most prized possession, the World Bombshell Championship.
Melody paused for dramatic flare.
Melody: So without further ado... let's get ready tooooooooooo ruuuuuuuummmmmbbbbbbbblllleeeeeeeee!!
She jumps up and down excitedly.
Melody: I've always wanted to do that.
J2H just smiles at his wife and a count down from 10 lights up the screens around the ship. It turns to 9 and the lights drop. 8 the offical Summer XXXTreme theme song hits. 7 there is a bu
in the crowd. 6 smoke starts to fill the ring area for the night. 5 flashes up getting everyone's hearts racing. 4 the cameras are in position.3

Fireworks stream to life from the ocean behind the boat and set the night off with an almighty display of colors as the cameras swirl around the crowd before the focus back on the titantrons that are showing off the matches for tonight.
Adams: I can't believe the original power couple of SCW are back in the house.
Simone: and they brought James Jnr as well.
The night is now ready to kick off with the opening match up.
We open to the backstage area where Rocky Mountains is standing in front of the roulette wheel with El Dark, Mason Alexander Vanderbilt and Miles Kasey standing in front of the wheel.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: Alright, it's time to find out what match the wheel lands on for the opening contest.
Rocky grabs a hold of the wheel and gives it a quick spin. The wheel goes round and round as the three men are talking amongst themselves. The wheel begins to slow as Rocky looks at all three men.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: What match will it be!
The wheel finally stops as the three men each give a nod of their head. They make their way towards the ringside area as Rocky looks at the wheel.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: Ooh, that should be a good one.
The cameraman pans up to show the match that was chosen. Triple Threat First Blood. Rocky smiles as the camera cuts back toward ringside.
Justin: The following contest is a triple threat match, the winner will be handed a SCW Roulette championship match at the next supercard. Introducing first, standing to my left, El Dark....
Simone: I don't like that guy.
Justin: And his opponent, standing to my right, Miles Kasey!
Adams: This is what happens when you don't fill your bios out properly...
Simone: Huh?
Justin: And their opponent....
The ring is shown with house-lights dim, as silence befalls the arena. The camera transitions over to the stage where on the screen, images of traditional "Americana" can be seen. Beginning with shots of Times Square in New York City, the videos then transitions between skylines of some of America's most notable locations. The skylines of Miami, Chicago, San Francisco, Detroit, Houston, and New York City are shown. After a moment, much of the United States natural landforms are shown in a drone-style fly-over style. The Rocky Mountains, Grand Canyon, and Niagara Falls are just a few of the images shown in quick succession. Suddenly, the video transitions to a majestic valley, where a large American flag stands erect, flowing through the wind at the top of a hill. Suddenly, the imagery overtakes the screen on the feed of those watching around the world. At this moment, the word "MAVERICK" flies across the screen. At that moment, the sounds of Goodbye June's Man of the Moment fill the arena. With the camera transitioning back from the video feed to the live action in the arena, boos begin to fill the arena. Standing at the top of the ramp, wearing a suit stands a smiling Mason Alexander Vanderbilt.
As the booing of the live audience intensifies, the smile on the face of the self-proclaimed President of Professional Wrestling grows bigger. Throwing his arms into the air, the six foot five maverick begins to slowly move in a circle, allowing the crowd to rain down jeers at him. Finishing his rotation, he lets out a boisterously over-exaggerated laugh, before places his hands on the lapel of his suit jacket. Mason primps his lapels slightly, keeping his hands on them as he begins to walk towards the ring. Looking to his left, and then to his right. He can be seen mouthing words at the hostile audience. When he stands halfway down the entrance way, he removes his hands from his lapel, and heads towards the barricade on his right. Then, he extends his right hand out, and begins to shake hands with the fans. Though most are not receptive to this, he does manage to shake a few hands. Once he makes it to the ringside area, he turns his back to the ring. Letting his hands find their way towards his face, he kisses his index and middle fingers on both hands. Raising them up, he makes two peace signs as mouths the words "I love you all too" at the crowd who continue to rain down heavy jeers at the self-proclaimed "Mr. America". Turning to face the ring, he once again adjusts the lapels on his suit before walking over to the ring-stairs to begin his ascension into the ring. After walking onto the ring apron, he walks across the entirety of the side, before slowly climbing onto the middle of the turnbuckle.
Justin: "From New York City, weighing two-hundred and twenty nine pounds, he is the self-professed President of Professional Wrestling, The Maverick, Mason... Alexander... Vanderbilt!"
At the sound of his name, he rips open his suit, to reveal his chiseled physique. Beaming from ear-to-ear, he slowly removes the suit jacket, allowing the inside to be seen as it is adorned with an American flag. Bringing it forward, he holds the jacket underneath his neck to show the flag to the crowd. Throwing it down to the ringside attendant, he jumps down from the turnbuckle. Methodically, he then enters the ring. Walking straight to the center, he picks his head up to look towards the crowd. With the booing continuing to come from the fans, he places his hands onto his trousers. In one swift motion, he tears away at the trousers to reveal his ring attire. His trunks, in American regalia, have the word Maverick directly printed on the front. Throwing the trousers out of the ring, he walks over to the nearest turnbuckle, and climbs up to the middle once again. He then takes his index and middle finger, and once again kisses them. Making the two peace signs once again, the fans continue to boo the "Presumptive President of Professional Wrestling". Throwing his arms into the air once again, Mason Alexander Vanderbilt poses arrogantly, letting the fans get their fill of his pompous attitude. He then jumps down from the turnbuckle, and walks back towards the center of the ring awaiting the start of the match.
Simone: Jason, wake up!
Adams: Uh, what??
The three athletes starting the show are standing inside the ring with Jacob Summers positioned in the middle of them as he explains to the rules to them. As he in the middle of explaining, Mason grows a little bored as decides to get the match underway with a cheap right hook across the jaw of El Dark. El Dark staggers a little as Mason follows the right hook with a straight left jab while keeping his concentration firmly on El Dark. Miles watches Mason for a little before running towards the ring ropes, springing off the middle rope and catching Mason with a beautiful high cross body.
DING DING DING!
The bell finally sounds as Miles quickly gets back up to his feet and begins to run the ropes. He bounces off one set of ropes as Mason drops down in front of Miles. Miles steps over him but gets met with a vicious big boot from El Dark. Mason turns his head only to get caught with a hard clothesline from El Dark. Dark looks at both men down on the canvas as he steps over the ring ropes and proceeds to lift up the ring apron.
Simone: Well, it was only a matter of time until we see what is hiding under the ring this time around.
Adams: Everyone knows you can never know what lies underneath the ring.
El Dark drops to one knee as he looks underneath the ring to look at all the weapons. The first weapon he pulls out is a steel chair. El Dark looks at the steel chair with a wicked look in his eye. As he continues to look at the steel chair, Miles can be seen charging across the ring then diving through the ropes while sending El Dark back first into the steel barricade. Miles is quickly back up to his feet as he jumps back up onto the ring apron. He looks down at Dark while thinking about his next move. As he continues to think, Mason sneaks up behind Miles and wraps his arms around his neck before lifting him over the ropes before throwing him across the ring.
Miles is grasping at his back as Mason follows up the biel with a running knee to the spine. Miles cries out in pain as Mason places his leg over him and starts raining down punches. Each punch lands hard as Mason tells to Jacob to check Miles. Jacob does check and finds no blood. Mason grunts as he continues to fire rights and lefts into the skull of Miles. As Mason continues his assault, El Dark reenters the ring and slams the steel chair right across the back of Mason. Mason bows his arms back as Dark slams the chair against his back for a second time.
Adams: Who do you think is going to bleed first?
Simone: This is going to be one hell of a way to kick off Summer XXXtreme.
Mason rolls off of Miles as Dark places the chair down before running the ropes and dropping a leg across the throat of Miles. As Miles appears to be a non-factor at the moment. El Dark turns his focus toward Mason. Mason is using the ring ropes to help back up to his feet. El Dark charges at him and drapes his giant leg across the back of Mason. Mason drops back down to a knee as Dark holds him down while crushing his throat against the ropes. Mason is trying to fight his way out of this predicament as Dark reaches his hand across the ropes and pulls on his nose. Mason screams out in pain as Dark lets go of him. Dark grabs a handful of Mason's hair as he pulls him back up to a vertical base.
Mason allows Dark to manipulate him until he could drive the point of his elbow into the sternum of Dark. Dark lets out a loud grunt as Mason strikes three more times in the same spot. Dark finally loosens his grip as Mason charges at the ropes but gets caught with a snap powerslam from Dark. Dark coughs a little before bouncing off the ropes and looks for a leg drop. As he rebounds, Miles comes flying at him with a crossbody that sends both men over the top rope and land hard on the floor.
Dark is grasping at his lower back as Miles is holding his left arm. Both men struggle to get back up to their feet as Mason comes flying at both men and sends both of them into the barricade. Mason is the first one back up to a vertical base. Miles is the second one back up as Mason strikes with a hard right hand. Miles staggers back as Mason follows up with another right as Miles leans against the ring post. Mason smiles as he measures Miles. He pulls his right hand back but as he brings it toward Miles's face. Miles ducks to the side as Mason strikes the ring post with his right hand. Mason screams out while grabbing his right hand. He bends over slightly as Dark catches him with a big boot.
Mason falls down as Miles uses the ring steps to flip over Dark before sliding back into the ring.
Adams: Whoever wins this match will be the number one to the men's roulette championship?
Simone: Which means Kedron, Lachlan, Stephen and O'Malley had better keep their eyes peeled to this match?
Miles is back up to his feet as Dark keeps his focus on Mason. Dark takes a hold of the right hand of Mason and continues to slam it on top of the ring steps. Mason continues to scream out in pain as Dark wraps his hand around Mason's neck. He pulls him in close before letting out a sinister chuckle. He goes to lift Mason up but Mason catches him with a quick boot to the stomach. The kick doesn't quite loosen the grip until Mason uses his left hand to rake Dark's eyes. That move does cause Dark to release Mason as he is clawing at his eyes. Mason follows it up with another rake of the eyes as Dark continues to stagger on his feet.
Miles is watching this as he shakes his head before sprinting across the ring, springing off the top rope and landing on top of both men with a top rope plancha. Miles quickly jumps back up to his feet as he motions to some of the SCU superstars watching in the audience. Some of them let out cheers as Miles pulls out another steel chair. He notices Mason is getting back up as he measures him with the chair. Mason slowly turns around as Miles tosses him the steel chair. Jacob looks confused as Mason does as well. Mason shrugs his shoulders as he goes to swing the chair but Miles catches the chair with spinning roundhouse kick. The force of the kick sends the chair right back into the face of Mason. Miles thinks that busted Mason up but notices Dark is facing the ring post. Without hesitation, Miles grabs Dark by the head and rams him face first into the ring post.
Jacob is checking over Mason but that chair shot didn't quite do the job. However as he checks Dark after kissing the ring post, he takes one look before signaling for the bell.
DING DING DING!
Justin: Here is your winner and the new number one contender to the roulette championship.....Miles Kasey.
Miles' music suddenly starts to play as he celebrates his huge supershow victory.
Simone: What a way to win a match, You make someone bleed and earn a title shot in the process.
Adams: What a match? I can't wait to see what happens next.
Backstage is Mercedes Vargas already suited up for her match later tonight.
Mercedes: So last night at Supernova, I didn't exactly walk out Mayhem Survivor. As a matter of fact it was a bad night all around as Austin didn't win and GRIME stays in business, but tonight's a new night. Under the bright lights and on the biggest stage at Summer XXXtreme, I will settle something that's been long overdue. Tonight, I will beat Crystal Rose in a decisive two-out-of-three falls match and finally put this saga behind me. Because, let's face it, that's where it needs to be. For the past five years in this company, Crystal found a way to beat each and every time. This time, I plan on leaving with my hand raised. This time, Crystal, the rose that refuse to whither away will be trampled under my boot. For the past few months, my checklist has been left blank and I think it's time I correct that by adding your name to my checklist.
Mercedes holds up her checklist.
Mercedes: I've competed in over 150 matches in SCW, but you probably wouldn't think this is actually my first ever two-out-of-three falls match in SCW. Fun fact: this isn't the first time you've competed in a two-out-of-three falls match. And the last time that happened, you lost to Mikah two years ago at Climax Control 210, the final show before Summer XXXtreme V.
Mercedes looks the camera up and down, as if Crystal was standing right in front of her. And with blatant disrespect, arrogance in her voice flows.
Mercedes: Oh, wait, there I go talking about the past again, silly me. You know what, Crystal? You can't run away from your past, because no matter how far you run, your past will catch up with you. The things you've done in your career, that will always be with you. Kind of like, well, me. But you probably already knew that. That's why it pains that I'm going to have to beat you tonight. Records, we can throws those out the window. The only record that matters to me is beating you twice in one night. You wanted this match, you got it. No other words need to be spoken. No other words need to be said. What happens at Summer XXXtreme is going to hurt you a hell of a lot more than it hurts me. But at the end of the day, it's what is best for you, Crystal. That's what a best friend would do, right?
Mercedes raises an eyebrow.
Mercedes: Asking for a friend.
We find ourselves in a makeshift locker room and it is there where we are able to see Aurora Martinez she smiles as she is wearing a blue wig and is wearing a #TeamZdunich t shirt. She smiles as she looks at Christina and Seleana.
Aurora: Are you both ready to kick some serious butt tonight?!
She smiles as she looks at the tall blonde.
Aurora: Or should I say... Du är redo att sparka!! See I practiced that all by myself!
She giggles in return.
Seleana: Es la verdad. Es la verdad.
Aurora: Oh my God you can speak spanish... That's so cool!!! You both have huge matches tonight and I can't wait to see both of you doing what you do best.
Christina smiles as she looks back at the two of them.
Christina: Got that right I have been at this for a long time with Vargas. I do understand that most of everything is my fault but tonight hopefully I can put everything behind me. Hopefully we will finally get closure to this story that has gone on for the past 11 years. It's been so long in the making.
Seleana nods.
Seleana: And I am keen to go out and give Ultimate X another go. Maki, Keira and Jessie won't make it easy, but I'm keen to give it my all to keep the Bombshell Roulette Championship!
Aurora: It should be fun and even if you do lose swimming doesn't sound so bad does it... Nothing wrong with taking a dip in a pool especially if it's hot...
Christina smiles.
Christina: It should be fine... To be fair we both were in that type of match before and yours truly managed to pull out the win, but that's only because Seleana did help me.
Seleana: Ja, we were.
Christina: But tonight it Seleana's night and no matter what happens I believe in her skills and in her ability. She will overcome the odds and return as a champion. It can't get any better than that right?!
Seleana shrugs.
Seleana: You could defeat Vargas...
Christina: Better than me celebrating you?! I don't think so honey... We need to celebrate in a big way and it can't get any better than the two of us both of us being able to be happy. You have so much family here... This is your night.
Seleana can't help but smile.
Seleana: Ja, it has been nice having them around.
Aurora: Exactly and at least you have me around as well. So that already makes everything that much better right?!
Seleana squats down and takes Aurora into her arms.
Seleana: Ja, that is always la verdad.
Christina smirks.
Christina: And after tonight we need to do something really big. It's going to be a huge day and we might as well go all out. I really have enjoyed this time around all of you.
Seleana nods to Aurora.
Seleana: What do you think?
Aurora chuckles.
Aurora: I think both of you are awesome and it needs to be exciting. Let's just have fun okay... Maybe I can hang out with Juliet some more!
Seleana: Ja, det har ar bra. Det finns ingen ko pa isen.
Aurora seems confused as Christina laughs in return.
Christina: It's okay I get confused as well... Let's just enjoy tonight shall we?!
Seleana: Ja, let's.
Justin: Our next match is a Standard Rules match. First to come to the ring, from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, at six feet one inch and two hundred thirty-five pounds, he is JACK WASHINGTON!!!
"Wasted" begins and there is a brief murmuring people in attendance. As the song picks up, Jack Washington parts the curtain, a look of focus and minor indifference on his face. He shows very little emotion, walking to the ring in his hooded sweatshirt, tights and boots. He hits the ring, uses the ropes the stretch, and then sits on the top turnbuckle, mentally preparing himself to wrestle against Agostino Romano.
Justin: Next to make their way to the ring, from Milan, Italy, at five feet nine inches and two hundred fifteen pounds, he is AGOSTINO ROMANO!!!
Fragments Of Insanity by Necrodeath plays over the sounds system as Agostino Romano comes out with James Brown from the backstage area, wearing green and yellow wrestling trousers with green and yellow elbow pads and green and yellow boots, having his fists in the air with James Brown following behind him. Agostino acknowledges the crowd as he makes his way toward the ring. When Agostino arrives at the ring he climbs the ring steps, then walks along the ring apron, before ducking through the ropes into the ring. He glances in the direction of Jack Washington before settling into a corner to await the start of the match.
Adams: We have a young talented wrestler in Agostino Romano who came from a racing background in motor sports. He was very successful in the world of motorcycle racing and he has been successful in the wrestling ring so this should be an interesting match.
Simone: I say Jack Washington will have an easy time with Romano. Washington recently faced Ben Jordan for the Heavyweight Championship against Ben Jordan. Also with Washington having a four inch height advantage and twenty pounds of weight over Romano. . .
Adams: What? Every time I mention a height and weight advantage for a wrestler you tell me height and weight means nothing. Now you claim the height and weight advantage Washington has over Romano makes a difference. Sheesh!
Simone: I have a right to change my opinion.
Referee Jasmine St. John calls both wrestlers to join her in the center of the ring. She checks both wrestlers to ensure they are clean of substances and foreign objects. Once they have been checked she goes over the rules of the match and that she will be firm in her officiating. Satisfied both wrestlers understand where she is coming from on this match she sends them back to their corners to await the bell from the Timekeeper to start the match.
DING DING DING!
Referee St. John motions Jack and Agostino to get into the action. The two cautiously approach and size each other up. The two lock up and it is Washington with the early advantage by breaking the lock up, grabbing the arm of Romano, and whipping Agostino into the ropes. Jack follows him toward the ropes and when Agostino rebounds off the ropes Jack goes for a kick to the body of Agostino but Romano grabs the leg, spins Washington around, and quickly drops Jack with a Stunner. Agostino flips Jack onto his back and goes for the pin.
ONE!
TWO!
Jack Washington gets his shoulder up to stop the count at two. He then rolls to the side of the ring and grabs the ropes which causes Referee Jasmine St. John to order Agostino Romano to stay back until Jack comes out of the ropes.
Simone: I wasn't expecting that level of action so soon in the match. Agostino Romano is a bit quicker than I thought he would be.
Adams: Remember that Romano came off a successful career in motorcycle racing. Riding on a motorcycle at those high speeds requires you to always be thinking ahead and reacting to avoid a mishap and to keep your motorcycle on the track for the win. From what we just saw Agostino Romano has brought that ability to the wrestling ring.
Washington gets to his feet but he keeps one leg through the ropes to keep Romano back. Referee St. John only allows this for a short period of time before ordering Jack to come off the ropes or she will begin a count on him to force him to do so. Washington comes out of the ropes to spare a count on it by the Referee. Jack slides along the ropes until he backs into a corner. Agostino flies into the corner and monkey flips Jack out of the corner. Romano grabs the arm of Washington and whips him hard into a corner. Agostino runs into the corner and leaps up on the ropes so he towers over Jack. He is about to start landing blows on Washington but Jack wraps his arms around Romano and walks out of the corner. When he gets a few feet out of the corner he drops Agostino onto his knee in what can be referred to as a reverse atomic drop, From the reaction of Agostino Romano we assume this maneuver ended up being a low blow. Romano drops onto his back, moaning and grabbing his groin, but Referee Jasmine St. John rules it was a legal reverse atomic drop maneuver. Jack Washington leaps onto Agostino Romano and hooks both legs for the pin.
ONE!
TWO!
T. . .
Just in time Romano manages to get a shoulder up stopping the count before it can go to three. Washington slaps the mat with his hands as he was sure he was going to get the pinfall there. Washington gets to his feet and stands back from Romano waiting for an opportunity to strike again.
Simone: Ohhhhh!!! I thought Jack Washington had the win there!
Adams: Closies only count in horseshoes and hand-grenades.
Simone: Surely you could have come up with a better comment than that.
Agostino Romano gets to his feet and complains to Referee St. John on the maneuver he claims was a low blow. Jasmine St. John reminds Romano she ruled it was a legal reverse atomic drop so he needs to stop complaining and return to the action in the match. Agostino turns to face Washington and he gives him the hand motion saying bring it on. Not being one to back down from a challenge Jack approaches Agostino and the two stars trading blows. Referee Jasmine St. John checks and calls the blows legal so she backs off the lets the two men go at each other. The two go non-stop on the heavy blows but we see both of them wearing down a bit. Both are nearly to the point where their blows have little effect on the other.
Simone: Both wrestlers are worn down so the match comes down to who makes a mistake the other can take advantage of first. Of course that would be Jack Washington.
Adams: Wishful thinking on your part. With his quick responses during his motorcycle racing career I see Agostino Romano staying viable and getting the win.
The two continue trading blows but there isn't as much power behind the blows as there was before. Even though both are tired Agostino executes a snap mare neck breaker and he attempts a pin on Jack. Washington quickly wriggles out of the pin attempt so there is no count on the attempt. Jack counters on Agostino with a shoulder breaker but he wasn't able to hit it as hard as he wanted to. Before he can go for the pin Romano rolls to the side. When Washington goes for a maneuver with his leg Romano counters with a dragon screw leg whip. He tries to double it up with a double knee face breaker but he isn't able to get Jack into position to execute the maneuver. As the two face each other again Jack lashes out with a knee to the midsection of Agostino causing Romano to double over. This allows Washington to execute a fisherman's buster on Romano. Instead of going for a pin Jack locks in a crippler cross face and Agostino has no escape as they are in the center of the ring. Referee Jasmine St. John steps in to ask Agostino Romano if he wishes to submit and he taps the mat.
DING DING DING!
Adams: Darn!
Simone: I told you so!
Justin: Here is the winner of this match, by submission, JACK WASHINGTON!!!
Referee Jasmine St. John raises the hand of Jack Washington for the win. Jack then walk to the ropes where he exits the ring and makes his way to the backstage area. Agostino Romano is slowly getting to his feet and he walks to the ropes, exits and ring, and walks toward the backstage area.
Sam Marlowe is dressed ready to wrestle as she moves down the walkway towards the show. She is seen smiling as the makes her way closer. A cameraman catches up with her and begins filming which stops Sam in her tracks. The cameraman asks for a soundbyte so she nods and faces the camera.
Sam Marlowe: Tonight I am facing Daniela Rodgers and she has basically laid down the warning that she knows I am injured and that she is going to focus right on that injury and use it to make me the loser in our match tonight.
Sam's hand unconsciously moves to rub against her ribs before she offers a smile to the camera.
Sam Marlowe: I hope she knows that I may have been injured and I may still be a little tender. But if she thinks that is going to slow me down or ground my high flying, I want her to realize that nothing is going to hold me back tonight in that ring. I am more than ready to show her and the rest of the bombshells that I am ready for the next step whether that is working my way up the ranks, challenging for a title or just having fun in the ring to continue my winning streak.
She offers the camera a beaming smile as she leans closer as if sharing a secret.
Sam Marlowe: I also want to wish you luck tonight Daniela, you are going to need it.
Sam blows a kiss to the camera and winks then starts to walk past the cameraman who keeps the camera focused on the back of the bombshell as she continues down the hall.
The cruise ship was slowly bobbing from side to side as Melissa Aki, dressed in black yoga pants and a black "Maki is the Bombshell" Tee shirt, strolled along the deck. She could hear some people enjoying their time together from the room and as she walked she noticed that there was a sign to the captain's deck. She shrugged and thought why not.
She entered and was quickly ushered outside by a sailor.
Sailor: You're not allowed in there.
Maki: Why not?
Sailor: Only the staff can be in there.
Maki: That looked like Mercedes Vargas in there
Maki tried to look through the door.
Sailor: Um...
Maki: Bet she is blowing all of you in there. Anyway, I am Melissai the biggest signee to Sin City wrestling in years so still sure I cannot go in there?
She batted her eyelashes and then one of them got caught in her eye. As she fussed with her eye, which was difficult whilst wearing glasses, the Sailor started to look uncomfortable.
Sailor: Is that all Ma'am?
Maki: No. Go back in there and tell Mercedes that I am going to split her botox when I see her next.
She turned in a huff and went down the stairs and a wave of heat hit her face and her olfactory senses told her brain to unleash the bile from her throat but she held on. Body heat, mixed with poor dead animals and alcohol. Somehow it smelt like urine too.
As she got to the bottom of the stairs she noticed the gambling tables, saw Alicia Lukas arguing with the croupier and downing shots. Same old Alicia. She turned and saw some of her Swedish House Mafia. Then saw Crystal with her arm around Seleana. Typical controlling behaviour she thought to herself.
She walked on, took a bottle of water from the bar, drank a little and then walked on. Candy was moping about her damn dog again. She wished she had hit her harder when she beat her. What is it with moping little women? As she walked she saw a group of guys circling a woman...ah it was Amber. This was one cool girl. She really liked and respected her and even more after what she did to Roxi. That girl was a magnet to male attention. Must be the flowing red locks.
She headed out towards the pool area. She leaned on a lounger, put on her sunglasses then kept hearing Griffin singing Shallow with some woman like they were in A Star Is Born on the other side of the pool as he strummed on his acoustic. She sipped some water, put her headphones on and listened to some Hinder to drown them out.
She stared at the pool and then looked up. How can she avoid falling into the pool with her lack of balance when she was up high? She was so confused by it all. Obviously in a four way she would easily beat the others. This was going to be hell. She decided to take a look at the structure. Walking around the pool area, singing to herself, she knew she must do what must be done.
As she got closer she got cold feet but then the thought of everyone on this boat she could Makihouse Kick. Imagine the carnage of her whi
ing around the boat knocking everyone out. This could be fun after...Maki: The fuck?
Maki went flying into the pool, then as she hit the bottom, her glasses fell and she broke them. She broke through the water and yelled.
Maki: Who the hell did that? I am going to massacre you!
She turned to see Griff Hawkins running and laughing. She shook the water from her hair. This better not happen later tonight, she thought. She slowly climbed out of the water, soaked and saw everyone suddenly there laughing and pointing at her.
Maki: You won't be laughing when I knock you all the hell out!
She stormed off out of view as we fade.
Justin: This match is scheduled for one fall... introducing first...
"Invincible by Hedley begins to play as a familiar redhead walks out onto the stage of the show where she stops and surveys the empty boat as Justin brings the microphone to his lips.
Justin: Introducing from Houston Texas, she has been known as SCW's sweetheart, she is Sam Marlowe!
Sam raises her arms as she is introduced. Heading to the ring she climbs the stairs to the ring apron and lays herself across the middle rope and blows a kiss to the camera and then rolls inside the ring. Walking towards the corner, she unzips her short jacket and pulls it off. Handing it to ringside staff, she turns and begins stretching out for the match as she watches her opponent.
Justin: And her opponent...
"Look It Up" strikes up as blue and cyan colored lights start dancing around the arena. A video package also plays on the screen as Daniela V. Rodgers steps out from behind the curtain with her manager Cheryl Hastings. Cheryl is all smiles as they begin their way down the ramp.
Justin: Making her way to the ring, accompanied by Cheryl Hastings, from Trenton, Florida, representing the Trenton Tigers, she is the self proclaimed "Throwback Princess" Daniela V. Rodgers
Daniela slides into the ring under the bottom rope. Cheryl remains on the floor as Daniela leaps up onto one of the turnbuckles and poses. She hops down while waiting for the match.
The ref moves in and checks both women for weapons before indicating for the bell to be rung...
DING DING DING!
Marlowe and Rodgers circle the ring before moving in and locking up, where they jockey for position in the centre of the ring until Rodgers gets the upper hand and counters the lock up and grabs Marlowe arm before reversing it into a wrist lock, but Marlowe is quick to counter and she ducks underneath her own arm and for a moment putting in a hammerlock before twisting and grabbing Rodgers arm and twisting and locking in a wrist lock. Rodgers grits her teeth as she takes a moment before countering the wrist lock and latching in a hammerlock. Marlowe thinks for a moment, as she taps at her shoulder, as she does a squat, which Rodgers frowns wondering what she is doing. Marlowe does it again and Rodgers follows this time and Marlowe squats for one final time before raising a foot up and breaking Rodgers grip.
Simone: Good early exchange between Marlowe and Rodgers here... as both look to take an early advantage of this match and get their name back into a title picture.
Adams: Interesting moves here from Marlowe, as she seeks a way out of the move and Rodgers face is priceless. Wondering what she is doing.
Marlowe then grabs Rodgers wrist and adjusts herself before putting a wrist lock on Rodgers, as Rodgers grimaces in pain as Marlowe then transitions into a hammerlock and then into a headlock. Marlowe then cranks on Rodgers head a few times as Rodgers grabs at Marlowe hands but with little luck before pushing her up against the ropes, Rodgers then goes to push her away but she grabs Marlowe and throws her down her against the mat. Marlowe holds her head, as she crawls away from Rodgers int the corner, where Rodgers approaches her and delivers a forearm shot on Marlowe before grabbing her hand and whipping her across the ring.
Adams: Rodgers briefly has the upper hand, but Marlowe quickly turns things around and frees herself before countering and grabbing Rodgers wrist into a lock before adjusting into a hammerlock and then into a headlock.
Simone: Good series of moves there from Marlowe, but it's only brief as Rodgers turns the tables very quickly as she pushes her up against the ropes and feigns the release and instead throws Marlowe down hard against the mat.
Adams: That clearly hurt... and Marlowe is now on the backfoot.
Rodgers follows Marlowe but Marlowe grabs the ropes and pushes herself up and Rodgers moves past her, as Marlowe lands on her feet and waits a second for Rodgers to turn before giving a chop to her chest. Rodgers holds her chest, as Marlowe steps backwards for a moment to avoid any count from the ref. Rodgers charges out of the corner, but Marlowe is ready and grabs Rodgers and hits an arm drag. Rodgers and Marlowe climb back to their feet for only Marlowe to hit another arm drag on Rodgers. They both get to their feet once more as Marlowe attempts another arm drag but Rodgers blocks it and the releases her arm before adjusting Marlowe's stance and then hitting a high knee to Marlowe.
Simone: Rodgers attempts to capitalise, but Marlowe avoids the incoming Rodgers and she quickly switches things around and delivers a chop to Rodgers chest.
Adams: I don't know why but Marlowe moves away from Rodgers, but she is ready for Rodgers who charges at her, but she is met by a couple of arm drags. Marlowe attempts once more and but gets a high knee for her troubles.
Marlowe stumbles backward towards the ropes, as she then turns as Rodgers rushes in and tries for a clothesline but is nothing more than a wild swing and Marlowe turns and hits a standing dropkick to Rodgers, who drops to the mat and then proceeds to roll herself out of the ring. Once outside the ring, she stays on her feet as she grimaces in pain. Marlowe inside the ring, looks at Rodgers who moves around the ring. Marlowe climbs through the ropes onto the ring apron, she calls out at Rodgers who turns and Marlowe rushes in and delivers a punt to Rodgers chest.
Adams: Marlowe isn't totally down and out, as Rodgers rushes in and wildly swings her arm but she is met by a dropkick. She then bails from the ring.
Simone: She isn't safe out there...
Adams: And she just found out... what a punt.
Rodgers moves away holding her chest, as she sucks in some air as Marlowe looks to line Rodgers up once more for another kick. As she moves in, Rodgers grabs Marlowe's foot and drags it from underneath her and sends Marlowe face first down onto the apron before falling off the apron and onto the mat.
Simone: Marlowe tries again but Rodgers is ready this time and she takes Marlowe leg out from underneath her.
Adams: Sam surely has been knocked out?
Rodgers smirks, as she approaches Marlowe and grabs her and pulls her up to her feet, where she pushes her up against the barriers. She then back up a little before rushing in and hitting a bit boot to the face. Marlowe collapses against the barriers seemingly out of it. The ref who shouts at Rodgers to bring the action back into the ring is ignored and starts their count...
ONE!
Rodgers climbs into the ring, as the ref continues their count...
Adams: Rodgers isn't done and she hits a boot to the face of Marlowe just to make sure she isn't coming back into the ring.
TWO!
THREE!
FOUR!
Marlowe begins to move and forces herself off the barriers.
FIVE!
SIX!
Marlowe turns and rolls herself into the ring breaking the ref's count, but Rodgers is back on her and Rodgers drives a boot into Marlowe's back. Marlowe stays on her hands and knees as Rodgers once again drives her boot into Marlowe's back. Marlowe refuses to stay down and Rodgers grabs
Simone: The ref gets to a six count and Marlowe somehow gets back into the ring. That's quite impressive considering her face met the ring apron and then Rodgers boot.
Adams: And now she faces boots to the back. Marlowe is in serious trouble here. She needs to start fighting back.
Marlowe pulling her up slightly and says a few words to her before grabbing a handful of hair and then drives a knee into Marlowe's temple.
Marlowe sits down on the mat a little dazed as Rodgers follows up with a kick to the chest and then a kick to the head, which Marlowe collapses sideways and Rodgers turns and drops down and goes for a cover...
Adams: What a knee.
Simone: Rodgers follows up with a pin...
ONE!
TWO!
Kickout!
Adams: And only gets to a two count.
Rodgers shakes her head, as Marlowe rolls away to the corner holding her head, unfortunately Rodgers moves towards Marlowe grabs her and pulls her up, where she grabs her around the waist as she goes for a belly to belly suplex but Marlowe uses her head and delivers a headbutt to the bridge of Rodgers nose. Rodgers releases her grip and staggers back, as Marlowe rubs her head before shaking it off and then surprises Rodgers with a roundhouse kick.
Simone: Interesting way of getting back into this match.
Adams: She has to do something. Even it is someone that she barely does.
Rodgers staggers backwards even more and Marlowe rushes forward and leaps up with a Lou Thesz Press, where she unleashes a series of lefts and rights before climbing off her, where she grabs Rodgers by the hair and pulls her up to feet and whips her into the ropes and as Rodgers comes back, Marlowe hits a spear.
Adams: Marlowe is starting to get into this match... and she is pretty much on top as she catches Rodgers with a spear.
Marlowe then grabs Rodgers and proceeds to tie her up and lock in the Sammi Wrap (Guillotine Choke Hold). Rodgers struggles as she tries to find a way out of the choke hold, but she had no choice and she taps out.
Simone: And no sooner has Marlowe gotten into this match... she makes Rodgers tap out.
DING DING DING!
Justin: Winner of this match via submission... Samantha Marlowe.
Adams: Well Sam is well on the way to working her way back to the top.
Marlowe's music hits over the p.a, as she lets go of Rodgers before making her way to her feet, as the ref takes her hand and raises it in victory.
The camera rejoins the ringside area where the comely head reporter, Pussy Willow, stands alongside two familiar faces; the reigning SCU Pride Tag Team Champions, Ariana Angelos and Helluva Bottom Carter aka Team GO.
Pussy Willow: Fans, last night at Supernova III, Helluva Bottom Carter and Ariana Angelos successfully defended their Tag Team Championships against Tim Staggs and Alexis Edwards...
Carter and Ari both hold up their Pride tag title belts and play to the cameras...
Pussy Willow: But it was what happened after that has people talking, when GRIME attacked, notably Sister Esther and Andrey Azarov who helped themselves to your title belts, and then attacked you with them!
Carter huffs and rolls his eyes.
HBCarter: You just 'had' to kill our buzz, didn't you? Reminding us of that? Listen, what happened after our defense isn't important because let's face it; neither Esther or Andrey really ranks as important. The important thing is that Ari here and I...?
Carter puts an arm around the shoulder of his bestie.
HBCarter: We're the champions. And it really shouldn't surprise anyone what the Al and Peg Bundy of GRIME did because that's all they can do. Sneak attack with weapons or numbers -- or both! And it's because they know they suck -- and not in the good way! Now GRIME can be booked on Underground? So what? What's next? One of them beats the other with a 'finger poke of doom?' Esther and Andrey want a shot at us so bad? Fine. EARN IT! Or here's an idea ... grow a damn set and meet us without weapons OR help! But then we all know Esther has bigger balls than Andrey does!
Carter turns and looks seriously at Pussy Willow.
HBCarter: It's nice though that his mother decided to still raise Andrey as a boy, don't you think?
Pussy Willow clears her throat and looks awkwardly at the camera.
Raisa stands behind Jack and Jake.
Raisa: Warriors Brawl, to the prize GRIME's top men's title, tonight Jack and Jake, will go through whatever extreme they see fitting to capture the GRIME Nightmare Championship and have it forever enter the hands of the Jeckels.
Jake: We are men of no remorse, we are men who possess no fear, we are the men that SCU and GRIME have grown to fear.
Jack: Tonight, we enter the Warriors Brawl, and one by one everyone will fall, tonight The Jeckel family take Max Burke's prized possession into our family, tonight the Jeckels will rise.
Raisa speaks in Romanian: Este scris astfel incat sa fie facutJake: It is written so it shall be done.
Darlyn: The following contest is scheduled for one fall and is for the SCU Television Championship! On her way to the ring, from Hollywood, CA standing at 5'11" and weighing in at 165lb, she is... Mz Holly Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooood!!!
"Hollywood" by Collective blasts over the sound system as a pink shadow box appears through the curtains. The silhouette of a lovely lady dancing is seen from the inside, seducing the crowd with her feminine wiles. It comes to rest at the edge of the stage, and after a moment, the lady inside kicks her way through the thin paper to reveal... Holly Wood! Mz. Wood if you nasty. She flips her blonde hair over her shoulder as she raises her arms in the air, loosening her hips before sashaying down the ramp. She climbs onto the apron, swaying her hips back and forth as she lowers herself down into a split position. She crawls under the ropes and does a sexy pose on the mat before leaping up, dancing around the ring to the music as she waits for the bell to ring.
A white light flashes over the crowd that is almost blinding. It returns to a more tolerable brightness as "Feel Invincible" by Skillet begins to play through the arena. The crowd boos and gets louder when the announcer speaks up.
Darlyn: On his way to the ring from Tulsa, Oklahoma he is 6'4" and weighed in this morning at 245lb. Representing The Church of The Good Shepherds he is Brother David Shepherd!And the boos become louder. David walks out onto the stage, throwing his hands in the air, looking up. He nods his head and smiles when he goes back and forth across the stage. He holds His Holy Word in his hand as he comes to the center of the stage. He walks down the aisle as he continues to read. He sits it on the ring steps and jumps up onto the apron. He walks across the apron as he seeks His praise. He gets inside of the ring and bounces off of the ropes multiple times with high, angry energy as he waits for the match to start.
DING DING DING!
Gena: Brother David wastes no time charging across the ring for a Clothesline From Heaven? That a thing? But Holly ducks it! She turns around and grabs Brother David... by the ass!
Crowd: Hahahaha!
Chad: David turns around and nails the Clothesline he was looking for, planting Holly on the mat. He dives on top of Holly with a Lateral Press!
ONE!
TWO!
Gena: Holly is pinching her nipples and groaning, so Brother David immediately gets off of Holly and begins stomping, growling in anger. Holly rolls to the corner, but David follows, stomping away.
Chad: Holly uses the ropes to guard herself before standing up. David goes to punch her off of the apron, but she ducks and rams her shoulders into his stomach and he doubles over.
Gena: Holly flips over with a Sunset Flip attempt. David holds his ground and grabs onto Holly's head. Holly's face immediately makes a beeline for his crotch! He loses his balance and goes over!
ONE!
TWO!
Kickout!
Chad: Holly sits down on David and lifts his legs up for another pin, grinding Cowgirl Style!
ONE!
TWO!
Kickout!
Gena: Holly is thrown into the ropes, and David catches her on the rebound with a Back Body Drop. David does a Leg Drop to Holly. He gets up and drops an elbow right to her chest.
Chad: I'm pretty sure that was wasted energy with the breastplate and all. David picks Holly up and flings her right into the corner with such force that she falls to the mat. She crawls into the corner, but David begins stomping her into the corner.
Gena: Holly tries to pull herself up, but David continues to stomp away. He then yanks Holly up and pops her up onto his shoulders. He then tosses her to the ground with a Military Press Slam.
Chad: Holly holds onto her back, arching up in pain. She tries to crawl away, but David grabs onto her legs and pulls her closer. Holly turns and kicks him in the stomach, and then the face!
Gena: Holly comes off the ropes and hits a Hurricanrana. She doesn't bother hooking the legs, instead rolling off and grabbing hold of the ropes. She launches herself up top and flies off with the Sashay Away (Shining Star Press)!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
DING DING DING!
Darlyn: Here is your winner and STILL SCU Television Champion... Mz Holly Wood!!!
Holly grabs her belt and raises it up high as the referee raises one of her arms. She jumps up and down, excited over the victory. She looks down at David and blows him a kiss as he holds onto his gut. Holly then leaves the ring.
Keira is seen in her gear for the match tonight, it was a special one for the pool as she stretches out a bit. She turns and looks at the picture of her and Roxi they they took earlier in the weekend and one with her, Roxi and Candy. She sighs a little bit as she says
Keira: I hope I can stop all of this.
Keira shakes her head and then says
Keira: But for now. I got to focus. Roxi, you got your fight...
Keira grabs her sunglasses to finish looking the part as she says
Keira: And I got mine. Maki, Seleana, Jessie. Here I come!
Keira turns and walks out the door as the scene fades
The scene opens backstage at Summer XXXTreme where we see Jessie Salco lacing up her boots ahead of the Ultimate X Over the Pool Match, she spots the camera and takes a moment to address it.
Jessie: Why didn't I do a second promo? Didn't feel like repeating myself, that said I do have some things to say about my opponents.
Jessie adds before standing up.
Jessie: Seleana's the luckiest Roulette Champion we've had in years but tonight her luck and reign ends, Keira will be too busy caring for her roasted wife to focus on the match and Maki? I still don't know why you were added to the match by Mark, but it doesn't matter.
Jessie adds before heading to the door of the room she's in.
Jessie: Because I'm long overdue for a title reign!
Jessie leaves the room as the scene fades.
Justin: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is the first Ultimate-X Over the Pool match, and it is for the Bombshell Roulette Championship!
Adams: This one is always my favorite! Bombshell pool party!
Simone: Not exactly, Jason. The Roulette title will be hanging above the pool, and the whole point is to NOT get wet, because if you land in the pool...you're eliminated!
Adams: Don't spoil my dreams, Belinda!!
Those in attendance erupt in a huge pop as the camera focuses on the poolside area where all four Bombshells are already waiting along with referee Jacob Summers!
Justin: Introducing first..Weighing in at one hundred fifty five pounds! From Brighton, England! Maki!!!
Maki steps forward and holds her hand up, as a few beats to "Sick Individual" by Halestorm plays! She looks around at her opponents then steps back as her music stops!
Simone: Maki has her first opportunity to win championship gold here in SCW, and she looks pretty damn determined!
Adams: That woman scares me.
Simone: What woman doesn't?
Adams: Candy?
Justin: Next...Weighing in at one hundred twenty pounds! From Miami, Florida! Jessie Salco!!
"Unsainted" by Slipknot plays as Jessie steps forward, glaring directly at Seleana and the Roulette title! Her music died a few moments later and she steps back!
Adams: I wonder if Jessie will actually win this one this year. Hasn't she been in this before?
Simone: Well, at least last year she was. My memory is failing me from the previous years at the moment!
Keira Fisher-Johnson wastes no time stepping forward next.
Justin: And next..Weighing in at one hundred twenty pounds! From Miami, Florida! Keira Fisher-Johnson!!
"Like a Phoenix" by Fallout Boy plays as Keira points to the Bombshell Roulette Championship and signals it towards her waist. All three women shake their head as Keira steps back and her music stops.
Simone: Keira hoping to win her second Bombshell Roulette Championship tonight, and I'd say she stands a decent chance.
Adams: You remember that but not how many times Jessie Salco has been in the Ultimate-X?
Simone: As the numbers goes up, it gets harder to remember...
Justin: And finally! Weighing in at one hundred twenty-five pounds! From Los Angeles, California! She is the current Bombshell Roulette Champion! SELEANA ZDUNICH!
Adams: Gesundheit, Justin!
Janet Jackson's "Black Cat" plays as Seleana steps forward, hoisting the Roulette Championship! She is forced to hand it over to Jacob Summers soon after, and he hooks it onto the cables before it is raised up to the center of the X! Seleana's music dies down and all four women look up to the prize as they wait for the bell!
DING DING DING!
Adams: Mad dash!
Simone: And they're off! They're all going straight for one of the towers!
As soon as the bell rings, all four women make a mad dash for the towers, trying to be the first to reach the cables! Keira is perhaps the quickest as she leaps onto the tower nearest her, but Jessie makes a dash over to her, trying to stop her! Seleana and Make climb up their own towers, however, signaling this one may end before it truly begins! Jessie catches Keira by her foot and tries to pull her down, but Keira kicks with her other foot, trying to get her away! Jessie stalls her long enough so she can start climbing just behind Keira!
Simone: Look at Keira go! She practically FLEW towards the top of that tower!
Adams: But she doesn't have her cape...
Maki and Seleana each make it to the top of their respective towers! Seleana is reaching for the cable, while Maki is slightly hesitant, trying to figure out what to do! Meanwhile, Keira and Jessie are going back and forth bouncing each other's heads off of the tower, trying to force the other to fall! Just as Seleana is about to start making her way across the cable, Maki LEAPS from off of her tower and right over to Seleana's! She very nearly falls in the process, but she holds on for dear life, and quickly recovers! She grabs Seleana's hair and pulls her away, trying to get the current champion to go flying into the pool! But Seleana fights back and grabs Maki's hair, as she begins climbing back DOWN the tower!
Simone: I...can't believe Maki just took a risky move like that! She could have eliminated herself!
Adams: But it was fun to watch, Belinda!
Simone: I'll give you that one...
Keira and Jessie are becoming dazed and confused and with one final blow to the head, Jessie can't keep her balance any longer! But as she falls, she grabs Keira's foot and pulls her down with her! Keira somehow lands on her feet, but Jessie crashes down, dangerously close to the edge of the pool! But she manages to grab a hold of the bottom of the tower, saving herself from going tumbling in! As Jessie recovers, Keira sees Maki and Seleana battling it out on the other side, and she makes a run for it, ready to eliminate all of her competition!
Adams: Ooh! Jessie almost went swimming!
Simone: Lucky for her she grabbed the bottom of the tower. Now Keira is headed towards Maki and Seleana!
As Keira runs around the side of the pool, she trips and goes flying forward! Luckily(and amazingly!) for her, she baseball slides right into Seleana and Maki's feet, knocking them down! Both women crash on top of Keira and a catfight ensues right there! Keira throws her elbow back, hitting Maki!
Simone: Jesus! Keira just did a face first baseball slide by ACCIDENT!
Adams: How embarrassing would it have been if she did that into the pool?
Simone: I mean...You have a point!
Maki kicks and throws punches at Seleana as the champion tries to crawl away! The entire time this is going on, none of them have noticed that Jessie Salco has recovered and is sneaking her way up the tower again, almost to the cable! That is, not until Seleana catches sight of her and she yells out something in Swedish simply followed by "Jessie!" Maki and Keira stop what they're doing and see Jessie, and all three women make a mad dash to get back to their feet!
Simone: Team work, ladies! Jessie is about to become the new champ!
Seleana runs around one side of the pool, as Maki and Keira go the other way! Jessie has just reached the cable, making her dangerously close to the Roulette Championship, but Maki is hot on her trail! Maki flies up one of the towers, while Seleana is on the opposite side! As Jessie pulls herself up and wraps her legs around the cable for added leverage, Maki is quickly right behind her! Jessie tries to crawl faster, but her hands slip! She falls backwards and is DANGLING over the pool by just her legs! She's screaming as she looks at the water just under her, but she holds on with everything she's got! Keira finds a long handled pool net and grins as she gets an idea! As Maki makes it right to Jessie, Jessie tries to pull herself back up to get away, but Seleana is now coming at her from the other side! And Keira is teasing Jessie with the pool net!
Adams: Ha! Interesting idea, Keira! Swinging at her like a Jessie Salco pinata!
Simone: Damn...that was a good one, Jason!
Jessie swings at the net as Keira tries to smack her with it, while Maki and Seleana hang on either side of Jessie! Jessie eventually manages to GRAB the end of the pool net and yanks it forward, along with Keira! Keira goes flying forward and ALMOST loses her balance which would send her flying forward right into the water, but she balances on the tips of her toes, then jumps backwards to safety! Maki begins swinging and KICKS at Jessie! Seleana does the same! Back and forth they continue for a few moments until one of Jessie's legs slips and she falls! As she falls, however, she catches Maki's feet! But Maki's weight and hand strength holding on to the cable isn't enough to hold them both and her hands slip causing BOTH women to fall into the pool!
Justin: Jessie AND Maki have been eliminated!!
Adams: Sorry, Jessie! Not this year!
Simone: And just like that we're down to two!
The ensuing splash caused by Jessie's and Maki's eliminations brings panic to Keira's face! Seleana is still hanging from the cable just feet away from the Roulette Championship, and possibly not enough time to stop Seleana from retaining! But Keira makes a run for it anyway! Seleana is reaching towards the title, trying to grab it, when she sees a determined Keira coming right towards her! Her arms, however, are starting to cramp and it's getting harder for her to hold on! She pulls her way towards Keira and decides to BLOCK her from making it closer to the title! Keira swings her legs at Seleana, trying to wrap them around the champion, but Seleana pulls back! Seleana uses the same idea, only this works for her, and she gets her legs wrapped around, Keira's waste, trying to scoot them away from the title and back towards the tower!
Adams: Umm...hopefully Roxi isn't watching this one.
Simone: Oh I'm sure she is! But that was a smart move by Seleana!
Keira looks around, confused, and wondering how to get out of this interesting position she finds herself in! This causes enough of a distraction and precarious situation for both women that Keira reaches her arm back towards the tower, reaching for safety! Seleana gets to the tower herself, giving her arms a much needed break, but Keira isn't ready to give up! She has her eyes locked on the Roulette title, but Seleana blocking her and now kicking at her legs and feet! Keira grabs Seleana by her hair and bashes her head against the tower! She cringes, almost remorsefully, as Seleana brings her hand up to her face, holding it!
Adams: Oh no! Not the face!
Seleana: Her nose could be broken!Adams: Why does this happen to Seleana?
Seleana slides down the tower, leaving the title ripe for the picking for Keira! But Seleana is still holding her nose and blood can be seen in her hands! Against her better judgement, she jumps down from the tower to check on Seleana whom she considers a friend! When she checks to make sure Seleana is alright, she's met by a hard right shot that sends Keira stumbling back! Once we get a good look at Seleana's face, there is indeed blood dripping from her nose and the two lunge at one another engaging in a lock up, right near the pool!
Simone: Did...did Seleana just trick Keira?
Adams: Technically, no. She really is hurt!
Simone: And now they're battling it out dangerously close to the edge of the pool!
Keira shoves forward, trying to eliminate Seleana and win the match, but Seleana shoves her back, keeping away from the water! Seleana eventually counters the tie up and gets behind Keira, locking her arms around her waste, but Keira reverses that and ends up in the same position! With Keira behind Seleana and her arms locked around her waste, Seleana is in a dangerous position! Keira is leading her right towards the pool but Seleana's quick thinking goes into gear and Seleana manages to hit Keira with the Shot of Z(Asai DDT) finisher right on the deck of the pool! Keira lays motionless as Seleana stays on her knees for a few moments, trying to gather herself, and wiping blood away from her face!
Simone: Oh my! Keira looks to be out cold after that one!
Adams: I'd say so! You try getting hit like that on a pool deck! Ouch!
Seleana stares up at the Roulette Championship and slowly makes her way back over to the tower, where she begins climbing! But she is clearly showing signs of exhaustion and she's taking steps one at a time! Keira begins to show signs of life, but is not move quick enough as Seleana reaches towards the cables, but not quite close enough! As Keira looks up and finally gets a sense of what is happening, she panics and adrenaline kicks in! She springs up to a seated position, but still feeling the effects of that Asai DDT and she crawls over towards the tower! Seleana is sitting on the top of the tower now, her eyes locked on the Roulette Championship, but also spotting Keira at the base of the tower now!
Simone: Keira's not giving up! It's not over yet!
Seleana quickly gets down from the top of the tower and grabs on to the cable, trying to make her way towards the center of the cable, but Keira is now closer to her! Keira reaches towards the cable, a muscle spasm shooting up her spine but she ignores it, and fights with everything she's got! Seleana is RIGHT by the belt reaching towards it! Keira comes up next to her, wrapping her legs around the champion in the same manner Seleana had, and she slaps Seleana's hand away and reaches PAST her, towards the belt! Both women get a hand on the belt and it comes unclasped, but Seleana swings her head back, hitting Keira with a headbutt, causing Keira to release her grasp on the title and she falls- RIGHT DOWN INTO THE POOL! And Seleana is still holding the belt!
Adams: Keira went swimming! It's all over!
Simone: Seleana did it! She retained and in amazing fashion!
DING DING DING!
Justin: Keira Fisher-Johnson has been eliminated! Here is your winner AND STILLLLL Bombshell Roulette Champion...Seleana Zdunich!!
Seleana puts the title over her shoulder and makes her way across the cable back to the safety of the tower where she holds the belt up high as her music hits once again! Jacob Summers helps a defeated Keira out of the pool, as Seleana celebrates!
The scene opens on board the cruise ship hosting this year's Summer XXXTreme where we see Caleb Storms with his guitar and amp set up.
Caleb: You know, this whole thing started with Teddy challenging me to a battle of the bands, so in that case here's my message to him in song.
Caleb adds before he starts playing the classic song "Sound of Silence".
Caleb: Hello Teddy, my old friend.
I've come to talk trash about you again
Because you couldn't be seen
On SCW TV for about a week
And the vision, of you talking about me
Still remains, within the sound of silence
Caleb adds before clearing his throat.
Caleb: In boring matches, I walk alone
Having to carry useless opponents, who may be stoned
Beneath the lights of an empty arena
I turned my back on the wrong opponent
And my back was stabbed, by someone who was a friend
It'll happen eventually, within the sound of silence
Caleb stops playing and clears his throat.
Caleb: I'm not doing the whole song because that would take too long, but my point still stands, Teddy, I beat you as a musician and I'll beat you as a wrestler!
Caleb resumed playing as the scene fades.
O'Malley and Darcy are "backstage" smiling from ear to ear. O'Malley still has his Underground Championship in his possession, signalling the outcome of his title defense against Mark Cross last night at Supernova, if you didn't watch. O'Malley leans down and kisses Darcy passionately as she wraps her arms around him. As they continue kissing, the sound of someone clearing their throat interrupts them. Darcy spins around and looks back as the camera pans back to see Ms. Rocky Mountains.
Ms. Rocky: Sorry to interrupt...whatever this is.
Darcy laughs and O'Malley cracks a smile as he shrugs.
O'Malley: No yer not. But no need to worry. Sometimes we just can't help ourselves.
Darcy: Not sure why people have a problem. It's just a little bit of kissing. But anyway...what can we help you with, Ms. Mountains?
Ms. Rocky raises an eyebrow and lets out a sigh.
Ms. Rocky: Well, I'd say congratulations on retaining the Underground Championship, but that was kinda due to Darcy's interference...again. Yet word going around is that Darcy had agreed not to get involved anymore.
O'Malley: Oh, that? Well, I made her a bit of a deal. Ye see, I really don't like Mark Cross and neither does she. So...we worked together as a team on that one. But...I would have won either way. I just wanted to stick it to the bastard before finishing him off. No regrets.
Darcy grins wickedly as O'Malley pulls her in close to his side, throwing his arm around her shoulder.
Ms. Rocky: And what was the deal you made?
O'Malley: That..is none of yer business. Now, are ye gonna stand there talkin' about last night, or do ye have something else ye'd like to talk about?
Ms. Rocky glances to a smiling Darcy and rolls her eyes. She looks back to O'Malley before continuing.
Ms. Rocky: In just a little while you'll be competing in the Ultimate-X match for the Roulette Championship. I'd ask how you're feeling but it's clear you're more than confident going into this one.
O'Malley: Of course I'm confident. This match is basically a fight between Kedron and meself. Stephen and Lachlan clearly don't give a rat's arse about that title, but I do. So...I'm gonna take it.
Ms. Rocky nods slowly.
Ms. Rocky: And I'm sure Darcy will stay completely out of it, right?
Darcy: Look, this isn't exactly a match I can get too involved in even if I wanted to. It's essentially a ladder match over the pool, and if you fall in, you're eliminated. I'm not getting involved, but I WILL be there to support him and cheer him on. And to celebrate when he wins.
O'Malley: That title is mine, Ms. Rocky. It's gonna join its half brother here and I'm gonna be a double champ after tonight. That is a feckin' guarantee.
Ms. Rocky: I guess we'll all find out in a little while, won't we? Best of luck to you, though. Oh, and Darcy?
Darcy glares at Ms. Rocky.
Darcy: What?
Ms. Rocky: I heard that Victoria Thorn was spotted earlier. Thought you'd be interested to know...
Darcy glares, but her anger fades and she almost looks panicked. O'Malley keeps a hold of her and then the two head off down the hall.
Justin Decent: The following match is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first
The opening scream for the song "Test Your Metal" by Unleash The Archers is heard over the PA and the lights start flashing across the arena before Caleb comes out headbanging along to the song before he poses for the crowd at the top of the ramp.
Justin Decent: from Syracuse, New York and weighing in at 220ibs, he is "The Metal Storm" Caleb Storms!
Caleb makes his way down the ramp slapping hands with the fans as he makes his way down the ramp before sliding into the ring and throwing up the metal horns as he waits for his opponent
The spotlight hits the curtain as it does the loud sounds of Let Go Control" by Saosin begins to blast across the speakers. The moment it does "The Lyrical One" Teddy emerges from the curtains with a smile on his face accompanied by his wife Diamond. He smirks as he slowly enter into the ring and takes his robe off. The crowd cheers him loudly and he smirks at them. Diamond smiles clapping for her man.
Justin Decent: Now in the ring,standing 5'10 and weighing in at 215 pounds. TEDDY WARREN-STEELE
DING DING DING!
The bell rings and there is no feeling out process as Caleb and Teddy lock straight up and Caleb docs down and hits Teddy with a arm drag take over both men pop up to their feet and Teddy hits Caleb with a Japanese variation, causing Caleb to flip front woods onto his back. Both men pop back to their feet and go for a dropkick their feet hitting in the air they land facedown and pop-up off their hands to face one another Caleb smiles and Teddy not his head in appreciation as the two men circle around each other after the fast start the match. They circle around one another and Caleb drops to one knee going for a standing switch Teddy though runs straightforward pulling Caleb with him hitting the ropes and throwing his body back against Caleb causing Caleb to fly back and roll over to his feet
Teddy turns around and runs at Caleb going for a lariat, Caleb ducks under runs to the ropes jumps up and springboards off the middle spinning in midair hitting an arm drag take over across the ring but Teddy rolls and keeps up off his shoulders to his feet before spinning around coming face-to-face with Caleb again. Both men eyeing each other up and down with arrogant greens at their shared athletic ability.
Adams: Well damn what a start to this contest. These two didn't give a crap about a feeling out process they just went for it
Simone: You can doubt if they'll win a match, you can question their ability to close one out but never question how athletically gifted these two men are.
Adams: We always knew Teddy could match it with Caleb but normally he's happy to simply showboat and throw hands, this time Teddy is showing us that there is some serious swing in his step
Teddy and Caleb act as if they are going to lock up again but Teddy steps back and hits a hard jab followed by another jab and a third jab looks at his right hand and fires it in like a fastball slamming it right at Caleb. Caleb that was able to duck under the right hand, hit the ropes and come back going for spear Teddy is able to leap frog over the spear landing facing away from Caleb before dropping down on his back rolling backwards causing Caleb to leap over teddy roll across the ring pop to his feet and spin around as they do Caleb leaps in the air hitting a dropkick sending Teddy to the outside of the rain Caleb gets a head of steam hitting the ropes rebounding back and then throwing himself through the top and middle rope with a suicide dive down onto Teddy. The small crowd at ringside going insane for the crazy metal superstar
Caleb claps his hands and grabs a hold of Teddy pulling him up and rolling him back into the rain he gets onto the apron and goes for a springboard crossbody Teddy looks up and is able to see it coming jumping in the air hitting a front dropkick of his own right into the stomach and chest of Caleb, Teddy lands on his feet but then keeps up to a vertical base and bounces up and down on the souls of his feet calling for Caleb to get up.
Simone: And there's mr showboat. We've been critical of it before but it just seems to fall on deaf ears. Teddy Warren could be a bigger star than his wife with multiple title reigns to his name if he would just learn to curb the showman
Adams: Thats like asking a fish not to swim, or nasking Caleb Storms and Griffin Hawkins to stop air guitaring and screaming "SLAYYYYER" at people in catering...
Teddy goes for another jab at Caleb but Caleb is able to step back and fire a right hand at Teddy. Teddy stumbles back on the ropes Caleb steps forward and Alicia is a hard knife edge chop across Teddys chest even with steady crossing ringing docs down going for a back body drop Teddy though rolls over cables back land behind him and scoops his head going for a reverse DDT, Caleb spins but Teddy hits a knee to his stomach and goes for a regular DDT. Caleb blocks it, trips Teddy down and steps back going to blast Teddy with a super kick. Teddy is able to duck the kick and grab Caleb into a swinging neckbreaker. He goes for the pin.
ONE!
TWO!
Caleb kicks out. Teddy stays on the attack and pulls Caleb up, he goes for a snap Sue Plex but Caleb grabs a hold of the top rope just in time causing Teddy to slip back and slam the back of his head on the mat. Caleb takes a few deep breaths and shakes his head to get rid of all fog, he then looks up and climbs to the top rope going for an insult he throws himself back Teddy rolls away and Caleb is able to land on his feet he then launches forward and hits the super kick taking Teddy down. Caleb jumps on Teddy and hooks the leg.
ONE!
TWO!
Teddy kicks out
Simone: Damn Caleb almost took Teddy's head off. That superkick was nasty. But to Teddys credit he kicked out
Adams: These two both need a win. They need a win to keep their names relevant in the SCW world.
Caleb looks to the top row he smirks and waits for Teddy to get to his feet he hits the ropes and slams into Teddys midsection with a spear he then pops up and starts to climb the top rope screaming for the shooting star press he calls the metal storm Caleb jobs Teddy is able to roll out of the way and Caleb crashes and burns Teddy looks over and is able to roll Caleb back onto his back and hook the leg
ONE!
TWO!
Caleb kicks out just in time, Teddy looks at the referee and hold up three fingers wishing it was over. Caleb crawls over to the corner pulling himself up Teddy shakes his head and runs in going for the cuddling moment throwing himself in the air hitting the splash Caleb looks to be dazed, Teddy then keeps Caleb in the corner getting onto the ring apron climbing to the top rope he throws himself off hitting the droppin Da bomb jawbreaker Caleb bounces off the mat and Teddy turns hooking the leg
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
DING DING DING!
Justin: The winner of the match..... Teddy Warren!
Simone: What a match!
Adams: These two went at it but in the end this goes to Teddy
The camera cuts to the backstage, makeshift locker room area as Teddy Warren enters the room, his arms in the air and a wide smile on his face.
Teddy: YEEEEEEEAH!
Teddy turns his head but his face freezes with his mouth wide open as he spots J2H sitting looking at him with a tilted head.
J2H: Congrats, you just beat the worst wrestler on the roster, you must be so proud of yourself.
J2H stands up with a smirk on his face as he looks at Teddy. Teddy wasn't quite expecting J2H to be in his locker room and the mere sight of him frightens him a bit. Teddy manages to wet his trunks as we can see a huge wet spot emerging from his wrestling gear. Teddy's eyes light up as he looks at J2H trying his best to cover up.
Teddy: Listen here you piece of crap you can't be sneaking up on a person like that!
It isn't long before we can see a short 11 year old girl walking into the locker room with long raven hair. She crosses her arms as she looks at J2H
Juliet: Are you bothering my daddy!!! I will have you know that nobody picks on my daddy!
Teddy: Juliet honey please leave the room I...
Teddy tries to cover his lower half.
Juliet: It's PEARL I told you I am an honorary Gem S....
Before she could even finish his statement Teddy moves his daughter out of the way as he looks at J2H and glares at him.
Teddy: I am sick and tired of you J2H... For this entire year you have been making my life a living hell. You have been sneaking up on me. Pulling your antics with these fake outs... I am pretty sure you even used Tony Thorn as a way to get to me. I am tired of being made fun of. I am tired of you making me look ridiculous and I need to deal with this... I want an answer right now. Before the end of the year you and me one on one!
Teddy shakes his head as he tries to look tough even if he has one hand covering his wet area.
Juliet: That's right you heard my daddy... You scared you stupid meanie?!
J2H raises a finger. He looks down at Teddy trying to cover himself up and looks down at Juliet.
J2H: Can you do me a solid?
Juliet looks at J2H, slightly confused by the question. J2H raises his hands over his ears.
J2H: Can you cover your ears up for me?
Teddy and Juliet share a look and Juliet does as she's told. J2H looks Teddy in the eye.
J2H: Did you just legit piss your pants you disgusting, vile, sad excuse for a human being? Seriously, did you lose control of that bladder just being in the same room as me? You call yourself a man, yet you can't even do the simplest of things? What the hell is even wrong with you?
A look of embarrassment passes over Teddy's face as he breaks eye contact.
J2H: Like really Teddy? You can't stand there and act all tough to me while you literally have piss running down your leg. Look, there's a puddle and everything!
J2H points to the floor and shakes his head in disgust.
J2H: I had nothing to do with Tony Thorn, I just think he saw you as....
J2H looks down at Juliet to make sure she's still covering her ears.
J2H: The piece of shit that you really are, but I'll make a deal with you. If you learn how to control that bladder of yours, I'll make sure in November that I'm free and ready to shut you up for good. You've chased me for nearly a year Teddy and I'm getting bored of it. I'm getting tired of you using my name to get attention for you. You want me at High Stakes X, learn how to stop pissing yourself cause I ain't having your weak ass pissing on my wrestling boots.
J2H takes a slight step back.
J2H: Now clean yourself up you fucking mess. I'm embarrassed to even be in the same room as you.
Teddy nods his head as he looks at him.
Teddy: It's going to feel good to finally shut you up once and for all. High Stakes we will finish this once and for all!
He looks at his daughter and tells her to undo her airs. She does exactly as she is told and she places her hands on her hips.
Juliet: That's right whatever you both said!!! And another thing!
She looks at J2H sizing him up.
Juliet: You can also thank Auntie Melly for the stuffed Pony... It's amazing!!!
Teddy however backs up as he leaves the locker room.
Teddy: Remember what I said J2H... And you can watch my daughter too or at least find Melody and ask her too... I have to like take a shower because you reek of nonsense!
Teddy runs out of that locker room as he heads back to his hotel room. Leaving Juliet standing there dumbfounded. J2H looks down at Juliet.
J2H: Nonsense smells a lot like pi...
The camera cuts elsewhere.
Justin brings the microphone to his lips as technicians finish up hanging the Roulette title over the pool.
Justin:The following match is the superstar Roulette title match which is an Ultimate X match over the ship's pool...Introducing first...
Adams: Time for the men to get wet Belinda.
Simone: Very true Jason but you have to admit that this tradition is one that you don't see anywhere else and given who is in the match, one has to worry about making a slip up which will end your shot like that.
The opening riffs of Gothic Celtic Music Shadow Wisps starts to play. The lights stay out for several seconds before dark green and white strobe lights start shining all around, and fog fills the entrance and along the ramp. Moments later, O'Malley steps through the curtain wearing a long black leather trenchcoat. He is joined by lady companion, Darcy Donohue. They stand at the entrance for several moments before O'Malley takes the first step on their way to the pool, and Darcy follows closely behind.
Justin: Making his way to the pool being accompanied by Darcy Donohue! From Dublin, Ireland...Weighing in at one hundred ninety-five pounds...Please welcome...O'MALLEY!!
Simone: Last night, O'Malley retained his SCU title against a very game Mark Cross. I wonder if he is feeling it today.
Adams: We will definitely be seeing if it will slow him down.
Speakers come to life with the sound of "You Ain't Ready" by Skillet. The lights begin to flash in an array of white and red as smoke fills the entrance stage. Strolling out to an overwhelming chorus of cheers, Lachlan Kane smiles out at the crowd and throws a couple of phantom punches before making his way down the ramp, slapping hands with the fans along the way. He grins again before throwing his hands up to the deafening roar of the crowd. As his music fades away, he takes off his jacket and hands it off to the ring announcer and throws a few more punches to ready himself.
Justin: From Waterford Ireland, weighing in at one hundred ninety pounds, he is Lachlan Kane!
Adams: Lachlan Kane fighting for a title here tonight.
Simone: And he could pull out the win too. He is quite capable in matches like this.
"Remedy" by Cold plays and Stephen Callaway struts to the ring singing along with his music. He never touches hands with the fans. He taps the rigging with his index finger before walking up the steps where he moves around the pool and raises his right arm in the shape of a semi circle
Justin: Their opponent...from Hamilton South Lanarkshire, weighing in at two hundred thirty four pounds, Stephen Callaway!
Adams: Stephen Callaway is looking quite confident about the match.
Simone: Well, let's see how confident he is once the match starts.
The eerie harmonies of the Devils Waltz courses its path from the sound system and across the spines of those in attendance. Curious onlookers turn their gaze toward the stage as the lights that illuminate the stage, ramp and pool fade from bright white to a disturbing red, and there, on the stage bathed in crimson, stands Kedron Williams, his flesh pale and his eyes almost as much so.
Justin: From Salem, Massachusetts, weighing one hundred and seventy nine pounds, he is Kedron Williams!
There is little reaction from the crowd, neither positive nor negative, as Kedron walks down toward the pool with a purpose; the lights above him beating on and off as if in tune with the beating of a heart. Each time the lights flicker off, once they resume, Kedron is further down the aisle and that much closer to the pool. Once he arrives at poolside, he smiles, before the lights go completely dark.
Adams: Champion Kedron Williams needs to be careful. If you remember, he is a warlock and you know what water does to witches.
Simone: That isn't true Jason. Water doesn't cause them to melt.
All four look at each other as the referee signals for the bell.
Simone: Here we go!
DING DING DING!
As the bell rings, the four men rush to the rigging and each begin to climb their corners in a rush to get the belt. Stephen looks at the others then drops to the floor and rushes towards the rig where the champion can be seen climbing. Grabbing the foot of Kedron, Stephen pulls him off the rig to the floor before beginning to slam punches against the head of the champion. O'Malley and Lachlan both move higher on the rigging as Stephen drops Kedron and moves to the rig where O'Malley is climbing. Kedron also makes it to his feet and moves along the pool edge to where Lachlan is caught on the rig. Kedron climbs up and the pair begin to trade punches and short kicks before Lachlan is knocked from the structure. Kedron drops as well and moves to the Irishman. On the opposite side of the pool, O'Malley and Callaway are locked up in a collar and elbow on the side of the pool. Darcy can be seen screaming encouragement at O'Malley who manages to turn the hold into a headlock. He runs towards the structure to slam the head of Stephen into the metal of the structure. Callaway staggers away holding his head.
Adams: That is unforgiving steel Belinda. That is going to lead to one hell of a headache.
Lachlan manages to push Kedron back first into the steel then heads around the pool where O'Malley is. Coming up behind him, Lachlan spins O'Malley around and begins to use knife edged chops to rock him back towards the pool. Sensing he is close to the pool, Lachlan reaches for the body of O'Malley and uses a European uppercut to rock his head back. Teetering on the side of the pool, O'Malley windmills his hands trying to reach for something to save him. Lachlan backs away and charges with a one handed bulldog attempt but Darcy is able to warn O'Malley who has gotten his balance. Ducking the grab, O'Malley uses the momentum of Kane to push him into the pool to eliminate him.
Simone: We have the first elimination Jason. Lachlan Kane has hit the water and is out of the running for the title.
Justin: Lachlan Kane has been eliminated!
O'Malley leans his hands on his knees as he is joined by Darcy who checks on him. Before she can reach him however, Kedron is there to clothesline O'Malley to the deck. Rolling away, the Irishman clutches at his neck as Kedron moves towards him. Behind Kedron, Stephen Callaway is shaking off the pain from the headbutt into the steel and attacks Kedron who was stalking towards O'Malley. Williams and Callaway begin to trade kicks and punches as O'Malley moves to begin to climb slowly on the rigging. Kedron and Callaway see this and both men share a look then move to pull O'Malley off the steel. All three men begin to circle. Callaway and Kedron close in on the Irishman who ducks under the double clotheslines of the others before turning and hitting a European uppercut on Kedron. Williams staggers away from the pool as Callaway uses the distraction to grab O'Malley and lifts him for an Olympic slam onto the deck.
Adams: That isn't going to win the match. You have to put your opponent into the pool.
Stephen gets to his feet and reaches down for the leg of O'Malley who tries to pull away from a hold. Spinning the leg of O'Malley, Callaway locks in a half crab which has the Irishman arching in pain as Stephen leans back into the hold putting more pressure on the lower back of O'Malley. Kedron looks at the title over the pool then at Callaway with O'Malley in the hold. With Stephen holding the leg of O'Malley, Kedron turns and hits a shining wizard on Callaway who is rocked to the side and releases the hold on O'Malley who clutches at his back in pain. Kedron looks down at O'Malley and picking him up, whips him towards the pool before turning to pick up Stephen. O'Malley catches the structure and is able to prevent himself from falling into the pool. Holding the structure, he watches as Callaway and Kedron are fighting on the deck.
Simone: O'Malley has time to climb the structure and win this match.
Kedron manages to push Stephen into the barricade that leaves him draped over the steel. Turning to O'Malley, Kedron stalks towards him only to be sent staggering to the side as O'Malley levels him with a running European uppercut. O'Malley smiles as he turns to the pool and begins to walk to the structure. He is caught by Stephen Callaway who kicks O'Malley in the midsection doubling him over then delivering a DDT on the deck. Kipping to his feet, Callaway rushes to the structure and begins to climb as Kedron gets to his feet. Kedron reaches up and pulling on the leg of Callaway, he tries to pull him off the rigging. Stephen kicks Kedron off before turning to launch himself off the structure with a plancha to the staggered Kedron but Williams uses a dropkick on Stephen that sends him staggering into the pool's edge. Kedron follows up with a second dropkick that sends Stephen splashing into the pool.
Justin: Stephen Callaway has been eliminated!
Simone: We are down to the last two in the match. Champion Kedron and O'Malley. Which one will be the one to pull the belt down and win?
Kedron moves to climb the structure when he sees that O'Malley is on the deck. He slowly and carefully begins to climb as Darcy is calling to O'Malley to get to his feet. The Irishman slowly rises and then crawls his way to another support and starts his own climb. The two men work their way upwards and then begin to work their way towards the belt. On the outside, Darcy is following O'Malley and screaming encouragement at him. She is close to the side of the pool as she continues to call out to O'Malley.
Adams: Wait a minute...is that who I think it is?
Darcy turns as the fans can be heard calling out. Her eyes widen as she finds Victoria Thorn standing behind her, a smirk on her face. Darcy screams and begins to back away from Victoria who follows her then fakes a lunge at Darcy who leaps backward to avoid the attack and lands with a splash in the pool. O'Malley is distracted as he looks to find Darcy treading water in the pool and wiping her hair out of her face. O'Malley looks towards Kedron then at Darcy, indecision on his face. Darcy sees it and tells him to get the belt as she moves through the water and the referee sends Victoria Thorn away from poolside. O'Malley nods once then begins to crawl towards the belt once more. Kedron pulls himself along the cable towards the belt as well.
Adams: It looks like it is going to be a race to the belt.
Kedron is first to the belt but O'Malley is there only seconds later. Kedron reaches for the belt only to have his hand slapped away by O'Malley before he reaches for the belt himself. Kedron shakes his hand then seeing the hand of O'Malley on the belt, he reaches up to rake the eyes of O'Malley who screams in pain, his hands falling away from the belt before he catches the cable. Kedron smiles as he pulls himself closer to the belt. O'Malley blinks wildly as he sees Kedron unbuckling the belt. O'Malley clutches the cable and begins to swing forcing Kedron to let go of the belt and clasp the cable to remain in the match. Seeing how William is unsteady, O'Malley forces his body to swing harder as he levels a kick to the head of Kedron who is rocked hard. O'Malley uses a second kick to the head of Kedron which has him barely able to hold on. Kedron weakly reaches out for the belt but O'Malley shakes the cable which sends Kedron tumbling into the pool. The Irishman watches him splash down before he reaches out to pull the belt from the cable and cradle it against his chest as he hangs there.
DING DING DING!
Justin: Kedron Williams has been eliminated and the winner of the match, and NEW Roulette champion...O'Malley!
Kedron pulls himself from the pool and with his head down, slowly moves away towards the curtain as O'Malley looks around then holds the title out as he releases the cable and falls to the water.
Adams: We have a new Roulette champion in O'Malley!
Simone: But what a battle Jason. He definitely earned it.
Adams: I have to agree with you on that Belinda.
O'Malley rises out of the water with the belt and swims towards the edge of the pool where Darcy has pulled herself out. He lays the belt on the outstretched hands of Darcy before pulling himself from the pool. She helps him to his feet as she holds the title to his chest and the pair make their way behind the curtain.
Cameras to backstage to see Samuel McPherson, standing behind Henry Losak with the microphone in his hands. There was no Lord Raab appearance tonight as he had other things to do and take care of in Vegas. Besides, it was Samuel's time to take over GRIME Wrestling. There was no word from Henry on him talking about the battle royal last night but knew he didn't need to with it not being that important, unlike tonight with the GRIME Nightmare title on the line. Henry begins to speak.
Henry Losak: "It might be hard to go out and win the rumble last night, but it's even harder to be consistent every single year with the rumble. Samuel once again was the last man standing in the match, Samuel was again the last man to be eliminated from the match and second to last person to be eliminated too. I consider that a success for Samuel here. That's what you have to know with The Monstimals is they are the most consistent team in GRIME Wrestling. Also, the first team ever to be both solos and tag champions at the same time. Jackels and Dying Breed haven't done that yet."
That was one thing Monstimals have done that the other two teams hadn't, being champions on their own and as a team. Samuel nods, sliding his arms around his waist.
Henry Losak: "I'm glad Max paid a lot of attention to what I said a few weeks ago that he needed to stop hyping up his fake monster manager and focus on being a proper champion. I'm glad you're starting to care about the title because we all thought you forgot about being champion for a while. We also know The Jackals are a team The Monstimals want to face someday. It's a shame it's not happened yet, when The Monstimals are a crucial part of growing the tag team division for GRIME, especially with Dying Breed coming back too."
It's true, The Monstimals wanted more tag team competition, although Henry knew he had to get back on track quickly.
Henry Losak: "The point is The Jackals are going to witness a preview of what Samuel can actually do in the ring by himself and then we'll have The Jackals and The Monstimals facing each other in a tag match on GRIME Wrestling. We have Gold and Yellow wrestlers in the match who god knows who's under those masks. Samuel will have no problems tearing your masks off your faces to see who you bitches are. Oh, we haven't forgotten about Hitamashii and Javier Gonzalez either. Bitches, both Lord Raab and Samuel have beaten before in both solos and tag matches. Bitches who are the weakest wrestlers in the match. You both still don't stand a chance against Samuel here who will tear the fuck out of you both."
Henry pats Samuel on his back as Samuel walks towards the camera and punches his left hand with his fist. Samuel does the signal for the title around his waist.
Henry Losak: "Max, you may have defeated Lord Raab for the title before, but you're going up more than just against him. While The Jackals, Gold and Yellow are still unknown to GRIME Wrestling, looking unlikely to threaten you in any way, you know Samuel is a much more significant threat to you than Hitamashii and Javier are. Samuel is the real threat you have to deal with, and he will beat the living shit out of you, busting you wide open with pure violence and strength. Most importantly, Samuel will take his title back where it belongs, around The Monstimals's waist. Samuel will go in there and win the Warriors Brawl and walking away from the stupid boat with the GRIME Nightmare title around his waist, fighting like a ruthless animal Samuel is. He's waiting to strike on Max and leave him until he can't walk out of the ring. Prepare to be ripped apart by The Animal."
It was a new quote Henry thought of for Samuel, suiting with his style of wrestling as Henry nods in approval of that. While he leaves, Samuel gives a close stare to the screen, signalling for the title on the camera. Samuel was bashing his hand against his other hand, using his fist again before walking to his deck for the next match to take place on the supershow.
Backstage, we cut to the G.R.I.M.E. World Nightmare Champion Max Burke preparing to defend his title against seven challengers in the Warriors Brawl. Max is busy lacing his boots when he looks up. He motions to come closer, and the camera obliges. The champ picks up a roll of tape, and begins wrapping his wrist and fist.
Max: First things first. As I said last night, G.R.I.M.E. took our place at the head of the table with our victory in Mayhem Survival. We told you we would, and we always make good on our promises. Congratulations to our leader, Angel Of Filth in leading us to victory. Moving on. In a matter of moments, I will step into the ring against my seven challengers in the Warriors Brawl. These seven individuals last night were a part of the Mayhem Survival. I thank all of them for the contribution to the end goal last night.
Max tosses his tape aside. He straps on his championship, and pulls on his ring jacket.
Max: However, that was last night. Tonight, you step into the ring with me. Yes, the odds are definitely not stacked in my favour. That doesn't concern me. The Warriors Brawl is a fitting title for this contest. I have been preparing for tonight for a very long time. Summer XXXTreme holds an extremely special place in my heart. This event was the location of my Roulette Championship victory at Summer XXXTreme II against Kain in a Bodybag match. We beat each other to a bloody pulp, but I was the one that left Kain lying in a pool of his own blood. I raised the Roulette Championship for Sin City Wrestling that night. Tonight, I raise my G.R.I.M.E. World Nightmare Championship in victory. I say it over and over. It is simply fact. Your nightmare has just begun.
Liam: The following contest is a Warrior's Brawl Match and is for the GRIME World Nightmare Championship!
Jared James Nichols opening vocals on "Nails In The Coffin" cuts through the silence, as a fog fills the SCU entrance. A light from below reveals the current G.R.I.M.E World Nightmare Champion, Max Burke.
Liam: On his way to the ring, from Dorchester, New Brunswick Canada, standing at 6' and weighing in at 220lb, current G.R.I.M.E World Nightmare Champion, Max Burke!!!
As the music intensifies, "The Destroyer" reaches the edge of the squared circle. He turns on his heel, and makes his way to the ring steps and through the Warrior's Chamber. Once near the apron, Burke glides his finger over the top rope as he walks to the center. He turns, his head bowed. Spotlights hit him from all directions as his music reaches a crescendo. Max swiftly removes his Abaddon mask and cackles into the camera, lifting his championship above his head. He hands the belt over to the referee and then steps into the furthest pod.
Liam: From Hijemi, Japan, standing at 5'8" and weighing in at 192lb, he is... Hitamashii!!!
The opening riffs of Fire In Our House by Astral Doors hits the speakers and Kingingiseisha "Hitamashii" Shirasu comes out to the stage, looking smug, and stands there as the crowd gives him boos. Hitamashii walks from one side of the stage to the other with a swag in his step before he looks around the crowd, and starts to walk towards the Warrior's Chamber slowly, stopping halfway down the ramp and turning his head with his nose in the air to look at the crowd, their faces showing that they do not like the way he is looking down upon them. Hitamashii lowers his head slowly and turns back to face the ring, walking down towards the steps. Hitamashii climbs up to the platform and steps between the top rope and the middle rope, looking around at the fans as they continue to boo him. He takes the next chamber.
Liam: Coming to the ring from Transylvania, Romania, standing at 6'2" and weighing in at 250lb, they are... Jake and Jack Jeckel!!!
Smoke and fire cover the stage Raisa emerges from the flames and smokes followed the Jeckels, she leads them to the ring, they walk slowly, Helena stops just outside of the chamber, Jake steps through the door and goes to the ring and sits in the corner, Jack leans through the ropes, placing his hands on Jack's shoulders, Helena sits by steps and rocks back and forth.
Liam: Aaaaaaand next, from Las Vegas, NV, standing at 6'6" and weighing in at 280lb, he is... Samuel McPherson!!!
"Animal I Have Become" by Three Days Grace plays over the sound system as a large man walks out from the curtain and stands on top of the ramp, looking around with Henry standing behind him before he walks very slowly to ringside as he steps through the door to the chamber and goes over the top rope with his feet and goes to a pod as the door closes behind him.
Liam: And next, representing the masked members of GRIME, we have Yellow and Gold!!!
Yellow and Gold come rushing down the ramp as "American Landfill" by 3TEETH plays over the speakers. They dart up the ring steps and inside of the cage. They both head toward the last pod, doing Rock, Paper, Scissors, to which Yellow seems to win. He steps inside of the pod as Gold waits for the last participant to enter.
"Way Down We Go" by KALEO begins playing on the speakers. Camera shifts to the side of the stage to see Javier Gonzalez stepping through the curtains. He has his arms raised in the air as he walks back and forth.
Liam: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand her partner... Coming to the ring from Albuquerque, NM, standing at 5'10" and weighing in at 190lb, he is... Javier... Gonzalez!!!
Javier charges down the rampway and jogs up the steps to the chamber. He walks to each corner, stepping up to the second rope as he stares at each participant in their pods, paying close attention to Max Burke. After completing all six sides, he stops and settles into a corner and gives Gold a nod.
DING DING DING!
Liam: Javi and masked member Gold start the match off, and Javi seems arrogant in his approach to Gold. Gold grabs Javi by the head and crashes it down over his knee.
Erik: Javi bounces back and Gold hits a Shoulder Block that puts Javi down on the ground. Javi might think twice about underestimating a masked member.
Liam: Javi kips up to his feet and wipes the blood from his nose and spits on the mat. Gold scratches at the side of his head, not even bothered.
Erik: Javi rushes at Gold, who moves out of the way and flings Javi over the top rope. Javi lands on his feet and he turns around and leaps over the top rope with an Ax Handle Smash!
Liam: The crowd gives a little reaction. Come on, that was fucking amazing! Get used to these faces, because after the Mayhem Survival, you're going to be seeing a lot more of them.
Erik: Javi hits several mount punches to Gold. Gold bridges out of it and gets to his feet, kicking Javi in the back of the head. He comes off the ropes and nails a Chop Block.
Liam: He does a Lateral Press to Javi, hooking the leg.
ONE!
TWO!
Kickout!
Liam: Javi kicks out. He sits up as Gold gets back to his feet. Javi twists out of the way of a Running Clothesline. He hits a German Suplex to Gold, latching on for the pin.
ONE!
TWO!
Kickout!
Erik: Gold kicks out as the lights start to flicker as it seems we're going to get our next participant. Javi continued to hammer away at Gold as the light flashes on Jack Jeckel.
Liam: Jack steps over the ropes and goes right for Javi, lifting him up and throwing him into the corner. Gold gets up, and Jack gives him the same treatment.
Erik: Jack charges over, hitting a Big Boot to Javi's face, dropping him down to the corner. He then charges at Gold and hits a Big Boot to drop him into the corner. He then grabs onto Gold and sends him right into Javi.
Liam: He goes for a Body Avalanche, but Gold moves out of the way, and Javi raises his knee, moving just enough to avoid getting hurt. He nods to Gold, and both men lift Jack up into a Double Powerbomb position.
Erik: Jack slides back and grabs onto both of their heads and charges forward with a Double Bulldog. He rolls Gold over and goes for the cover.
ONE!
TWO!
Kickout!
Erik: Gold gets a shoulder up as Javi kicks the back of Jack's head. He picks Jack up and whips him into the ropes. Gold gets up just in time and they lift Jack up so that his mid section folds over the top rope!
Liam: Javi and Gold high five, but both men have the same idea, dragging the other into a tie up. Gold is able to knee Javi in the gut and drops him with a Belly-to-Belly Suplex.
Erik: The lights flash again, letting us know we're about to see a fourth person enter the match. Jack drops to the platform, holding his stomach as he crawls toward the ring.
Liam: And now we're seeing Yellow enter the match. He grabs hold of Jack and nails a Curb Stomp onto the steel platform! He drags Jack toward the ring, setting him up over the bottom rope. He leaps over with a Guillotine Leg Drop.
Erik: Yellow rushes at Javi and hits a Battering Ram to his stomach. He then bounces off of the ropes and tries to catch Gold with a Flying Knee, but Gold punches him right in the crotch, and then lifts him back into an Exploder Suplex!
Liam: Yellow holds onto his schwanz und hoden tenderly. He tries to crawl to the corner, but Javi grabs onto his head and hits a Curbstomp of his own against the second turnbuckle.
Erik: Gold picks Yellow up and locks on an Abdominal Stretch. Javi kicks Yellow in the gut a few times for good measure. However, Jack is back on his feet and he picks Javi up in a Sidewalk Slam and goes for the cover!
ONE!
TWO!
Kickout!
Liam: Jack slaps the mat and goes to throw Javi back to the mat, but Gold comes crashing down, trying for a Standing Splash on Jack, but Jack moves, and Gold hits Javi. Jack pushes down on Gold's back for the pin!

Liam: Jack gets up, and Sam Spears him to the ground. Jake gets inside of the ring and pulls Sam up from the mat. They go for a back and forth brawl. Meanwhile, Yellow gets up to his feet and charges at Gold, nailing a Tornado DDT, hooking the leg.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
Liam: Gold has been eliminated!
Erik: Yellow steps up and sees Samuel getting double teamed by the Jeckels. She jumps up on Jack's back, wrapping his arms around Jack's neck for a choke. Samuel bucks Jake off of him and then flings him into the ropes.
Liam: Yellow does a Leapfrog over Sam and hits a Forearm Smash on Jake. Sam picks Jack up and sends him over the ropes. Jake gets up, but Yellow hits a Shining Wizard on him as Sam goes to the outside, hitting the Animal Kill (Vertabreaker)!
Erik: He goes for the pin on Jack!
ONE!
TWO!
Kickout!
Erik: He kicked out of the Animal Kill! Jack kicked out! Yellow bounces off of the ropes and rushes at Jake, but Jake lifts him up for a Back Body Drop into one of the pods with a sick thud! Yellow slides down and tumbles to the outside.
Liam: Jake steps through the ropes and picks Yellow up. He throws Yellow into the side of the chamber, bouncing his face off of the chains. He repeats this a few times until Yellow is busted open!
Erik: Jack gets out from under Sam and crawls over to an opened pod. Sam kicks the back of his head as he crawls. Jack stumbles but continues crawling. Sam kicks him again. However, Jake slams one of the pod doors closed and he pulls a baton out from the leg of his tights.
Liam: He pushes it into the door so it won't open. On the other side, Jack does the same, trapping Sam inside of it! After gaining a bit of steam back, the Jeckels lift Yellow up into a Powerbomb onto the platform, and pin him.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
Liam: Yellow has been eliminated!
Erik: The lights flash and we wait to see if it's the champ or Hitamashii, and... Max Burke! The champ is entering the match now! He rushes at Jake and bashes him into the side of the chamber.
Liam: Max lifts Jake up, and as Jack tries to fling an elbow at Max, Max uses Jake as a shield, and Jack hits his brother. He flings Jake head first into Jack, sandwiching him between the cage.
Erik: Max sets Jake up for the Nail In The Coffin (Ted Hart Hangman's Driver), nailing it right on the platform! Damn, that's gonna hurt in the morning! He rolls Jake over onto his side.
ONE! Erik: Jack gets to Jake and pulls him out from under the pin. Sam finally cracks the glass of the pod, kicking it out as he storms out. He grabs Jack and hits the Animal Kill (Vertabreaker)! Max and Sam trade a nod and they pin the Jeckels at the same time! ONE! ONE! Liam: Jake Jeckel has been eliminated! Jack Jeckel has been eliminated! Erik: And just like that, we're down to two, and one pod left to open. Max and Sam look to one another, both relatively fresh in this. They nod and Max turns away, but hits a chop to the chest of Sam. Sam returns the favor. Liam: Max hits a Headbutt, and Sam hits one right back at him. Max sweeps Sam off of his feet and drops a knee to his chest. He then begins hitting rapid mount punches as the lights begin to flash. Erik: Hitamashii exits the pod and immediately helps Max to stomp on Sam. They pick Sam up for the platform. They fling Sam into the chamber walls. They then coordinate a double Hip Toss on Sam, and they drop down to pin together! ONE! TWO!
Kickout! Liam: Sam kicks out quickly, but this doesn't stop Hitamashii from standing up and repeatedly kicking him in the head. He and Max lift Sam up from the platform again and fling him right into a pod door. Erik: Sam turns around and hits Max with a Clothesline. He charges at Hitamashii, but Hitamashii does a Drop Toe Hold out of nowhere, right against the jagged edges of the broken pod door, cutting open the Animal! Liam: Hitamashii leans down to pick Sam up, but he has a handful of glass and he slaps it right into Hitamashii's face. Hitamashii stumbles backward, and Sam stands up, not paying attention to the gash in his forehead! Erik: Hitamashii stumbles forward, and Max catches him, going for Nail In The Coffin (Ted Hart Hangman's Driver)! He doesn't even bother to pin Hitamashii after stabbing him in the back! I love that bastard! Liam: He sees Sam coming at him, and the two go at it, brawling, while Hitamashii is out cold on the platform. Sam is able to lift Max up into a quick Bodyslam. He picks Max up onto his shoulders and he goes for a Powerslam! He nails it! Erik: Sam goes for a DDT onto the platform covered in broken glass! He rolls Max over onto his back and goes for the cover! ONE! TWO!
Kickout! Erik: Max gets a shoulder up. He's not going to give up that easily, especially when his title is on the line. He crawls out from under Sam, who is starting to lose a lot of blood now. He is woozy as he starts to pull himself up. Liam: Max grabs at Sam and rams a knee into his forehead, busting him open even more. He hits a Snapmare and locks on a chokehold. He watches as Hitamashii starts to stir. Max torques the neck of Sam, causing the blood to rush to his head. Sam fights as hard as he can. Erik: But with a contusion that bad, with that kind of pressure to the head... it's only a matter of seconds before...
Liam: And the referee has declared that Samuel McPherson has been eliminated! Erik: Before Max can even get up, Hitamashii lands his Farore's Wind (knee strike/Rain Trigger)! He throws Max's shoulders against the platform and plants his feet on the chains of the chamber wall! ONE! TWO!
Kickout! Liam: OMG WHY DON'T FINISHERS FINISH MATCHES ANYMORE?!? Max gets a shoulder up. Hitamashii goes vertical with a Handstand Knee Smash to Max, and then another! He stands up and waits for Max to get to his feet before hitting a Yakuza Kick! Erik: Hitamashii doesn't even risk it as he puts Max's head between his legs and then drops him with a Piledriver right onto the glass! He rolls Max over onto his back now and goes for the cover. ONE! TWO!
Kickout! Liam: Now that is a warrior. All eight men have impressed me tonight, and these two definitely earned their spots in the match. Max crawls to the ropes and pulls himself inside of the ring. Hitamashii crawls after him, but his vision is blurred. Erik: Max does little to trip Hitamashii up, right into the Revelations (Von Erich Claw)! Hitamashii fights back against it, but once it's fully applied, he goes down. The referee checks on him a couple times before lifting the arm up. ONE! Liam: He looks around and lifts the arm one more time, and it drops limp! TWO! Erik: The referee leans down and lifts Hitamashii's arm once more. It drops down! THREE!NO! Erik: NO! Hitamashii clenches his fists and shakes them as he hits a knee to the side of Max. And then another. He then cracks an elbow over Max's head. As Max finally let's go, Hitamashii spits on the ground, disgusted. Liam: He grabs hold of Max's head and Max spits in Hitamashii's face. Hitamashii wipes it off and then slaps him right back in his face! Max slowly gets up, and both men resort to slugging it out. The blood loss and fatigue is setting in more and more. Erik: Both men stumble about, but Max uses everything left in him as he lands the Nail In the Coffin (Hangman's Driver)! He falls limp on top of Hitamashii, in a technical cover! ONE! TWO!
THREE! DING DING DING! Liam: Here is your winner and STILL GRIME World Nightmare Champion... Max Burke!!! Both men are laid out on the mat, motionless and bleeding. After a moment, Max rolls off of Hitamashii, but still finds himself face first on the mat. Medics come to the ring to check on both men, assisting Hitamashii out first, and then Max. Max lifts a hand up, as if waving a flag, and the fans can't help but give a cheer for their performances, and the rest of the participants of the Warrior's Brawl. The scene shifts to the staging area where wrestlers go to get ready to make their entrances for their matches. Bill and Bea Barnhart are in place and Sin City Wrestling Interviewer, Scott Oliver, is standing with them to get last moment comments from them. Scott: Bill, Bea, the time has come for your Mixed Tag Team match against Kris Ryans and Mikah, Black Sheep, so what are your final thoughts before the match takes place?
TWO!
TWO! TWO!
THREE! THREE!
Bill: I previously mentioned that Kris came out of retirement too soon and his first match was against me. I put him in my Sweet Dreams Sleeper Hold and put him into nightmare land with a loss to me. If the match comes down to me and Kris that would put their team at a maximum of a thirty percent chance of winning the match. However if it comes down to Bea and Mikah then I say it is a fifty percent chance for the win on both sides. No offense Bea but Mikah does have the experience over you even if she did go into retirement and return to active wrestling recently.
Bea: No offense taken. I agree with your comments. If the match were to come down to me and Mikah I will not waste anything to be flashy or cute. It is all serious when the two of us are in the ring.
Scott: Bea if you could end this match by defeating Mikah how would you like to accomplish that?
Bea: Winning by submission is always fun as it proves you dominate your opponent. I love to hear my opponent submit to me in the match. However a win is a win and I'll take a pinfall victory also.
Scott: How about you Bill?
Bill: Since I won my previous match against Kris using my Sweet Dreams Sleeper Hold this time I would like to get the win over him with my favorite hold which is the Barnhart Shoulder Breaker Flying Hammer Lock. Always fun to hear my opponent scream out from the pain then submit to me to prevent suffering a dislocated shoulder or broken arm. Just as Bea stated I'll also take a win by pinfall. Hope everyone watching have placed their bets on me and Bea to win because if you did you're gonna make tons of money on that bet.
Scott: Thanks for your time with me before your match.
Bill and Bea are informed their entrance will be shortly so they thank Scott for his time to interview them before their match.
Justin: The following match is for one fall and it is a mixed tag team match up, introducing first...
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 dressed ready for action tonight in this mixed tag team match. When the song comes to the lyrics RAISE YOUR GLASS Bill Barnhart raises the chalice into the air.
Justin: From Lawenceville, Georgia... Bill and Bea Barnhart
The crowd gives a mixed reaction to Barnharts. The two 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. They enter the ring walking around waiting for the match to start as their theme is cut from the personal address system.
Justin: And their opponents.
All the lights in the arena go out as "Black Sheep" starts to play. Through the build-up of the song the stage flashes with a mix of orange, and turquoise lights. Mikah makes her way out onto the stage through the left curtain, one hand on her hip and the other is held out, brushing off the negative reaction of those in attendance. Simultaneously, Kris comes through the right curtain
Justin: Coming down to the ring, SCW Hall of Famer, Mikah and "The Miracle" Kristopher Ryans! Together, they are The Black Sheep!
Both of them stop at the centre of the stage, Mikah putting her back to Kris before rolling her hips and whipping her hair over her left shoulder. The cameras move up the ramp, rotating around behind the duo to see the word "MIRACLE" across the back of Kris' jacket. They make their way down the ramp, mostly ignoring everyone reaching out to them, and talking back and forth to one another. Once they reach the bottom of the ramp Kris takes a running start and slides under the bottom rope and into the ring. Mikah, on the other hand, jogs up the ringside stairs before strutting two steps onto the apron. Kris pops up to his feet and comes to the ropes near Mikah, sitting down on the middle rope to lower it. The fans boo as Mikah shakes her head at first, only to reconsider it. She steps over the middle rope, dipping her upper body lower than her lower body to make her butt stick out a bit in front of him. As soon as she is into the ring, Kris sprints across the ring and leaps up onto the middle rope of the far corner and sits down on the top turnbuckle while they wait for the match to get underway.
Adams: No matter how many times I see Mikah, I'm always impressed.
Simone: Big fan hey?
Adams: Always.
Mikah and Kris are standing in the middle of the ring discussing who is going to be the one to kick off this match, however Bill and Bea can't hold on any longer as the two rush Team Black Sheep. Bea knocks Mikah off her feet, whilst Bill comes in clobbering away at Kris, knocking him down to his knees. Jacob rushes in to scold Bill as Mikah and Bea spill to the outside in a fury of flying fists.
Adams: Well that didn't take long.
Simone: Welcome to the very competitive mixed tag team division ladies and gentlemen.
Mikah gets up and kicks Bea away from her, giving her a piece of her mind whilst inside the ring Jacob calls for the bell and this one can officially get underway.
DING DING DING!
Kris is back up to his feet and he wastes no time in seeking his revenge as he rushes towards Bill, he ducks Bill's attempts at a shoulder block ducking underneath his arm before driving the big guy down with a reverse neck breaker. Kris is back to his feet and it's his turn to start hailing down on Bill with left and rights, getting in some payback.
Adams: It was really unwise of Bill and Bea to think they could get the upper hand in this match by taking down two former champions.
Simone: They probably hoped it would rattle the returning and relatively newish tag team of Kris and Mikah.
Bill covers up and as Kris goes to slam his right fist down on Bill's face once more, he is out powered and pushed away with ease. Kris flies across the ring and lands on the canvas, he doesn't get any words of encouragement from Mikah, just her shouting at him to get up and get back on the attack.
Adams: Wise words from Mikah.
Simone: I think Kris knows how to win a wrestling match though, so maybe wise words but also mute words.
Kris and Bill get back up to their feet and look as if they are about to lock up in the middle of the ring but Kris side steps out of the way before swiveling around to face Bill's back. Kris is quick to get his right foot and drive it in the middle of Bill's back. Bill stumbles forward but doesn't fall to the matt as Kris was hoping. Bill turns to face Kris, Kris attempts to kick Bill in the mid-section, but Bill catches his foot. Kris is hopping up and down on one leg and out of the blue hits a perfect standing enziguri. Bill drops to the matt while Kris sits up and pats himself on the back while pointing towards Mikah seeking her approval.
Simone: Mikah seems slightly impressed.
Kris jumps up to his feet and grabs onto Bill's head dragging him up. As Bill is now standing Kris starts to lay body shot after body shot. Fast left and right closed fists contact Bill's stomach, but Bill gets fed up with it and grabs on to Kris's shoulders stopping him. Lifting Kris in his spot Bill drops Kris to the ring canvas with a sit out power bomb. Kris's body pancakes the canvas with a splat and the SCW crowd of family and friends' gasps in shock, worried that Bill just punctured Kris into the abyss.
Adams: Wow... Bill almost sent Kris into the deep dark belly of the ship with that one.
Kris springs back up to his feet along with Bill, Kris rushes towards the ropes to use them momentum but Bill catches him off the rebound with a massive clothesline. As Kris is down on the canvas Bill drops down and hooks the leg looking for the win.
ONE!
TWO!
Simone: Kris kicks out just in time.
Kris gets the shoulder up and pushes Bill off of him. Mikah starts to clap trying to rally behind Kris. Bill is up to his feet first and he attempts to pick up Kris but Kris pushes him off of him, Bill slams into the ropes and Kris drops him face first to the canvas with a drop toe hold. Kris now makes a cover.
ONE!
TWO!
Bill kicks out, Bea is now pacing up and down the ring apron her hand out stretched she wants in to this match. Bill starts to crawl across the canvas and extends his hands out tagging in Bea. Bea storms into the ring looking to make thins right for her team as Kris had been all over Bill so far, not letting him get a decent move in. Bea trashes Mikah from across the ring.
Adams: It's MIKAH TIME!
Mikah rushes into the ring, without the need for a tag and she is full of rage as she full steam ahead she tackles Bea to the floor before offloading left and right swings to the side of Bea's face. Mikah grabs onto Bea's head and slams it into the ring canvas before jumping off of Bea and flipping her hair back, much to the fans disgust.
Simone: Typical Mikah, she always finds time to showboat.
Adams: Was that a cruise ship pun?
Simone: I'm appalled with myself.
Bea is back up to her feet and the two ladies circle around each other in the ring. Bea lunges forward to initiate a lock up that Mikah is more than happy to overpower, tossing Bea away. Mikah grabs a hand full of Bea's hair hooks her legs around hers before connecting with a sharp Russian Leg sweep, Mikah is quick to make the cover.
ONE!
Bea gets the shoulder up. Mikah makes her way to her feet grabbing on to Bea pulling her up with her. Letting her go the two circle each other once again this time Bea has had enough, she shoves Mikah with a palm in the face. The face palm is followed up by a vicious slap and the look on Mikah's face says it all.
She swiftly kicking Bea in the midsection, as Bea is doubles over and stumbles back into the ropes. Mikah grabs a handful of hair and drops the country bombshell to the canvas with a bulldog. Mikah once again grabs a handful of Bea's hair and starts to slam her face first into the ring canvas over and over and over, while Bill is begging for a tag.
Simone: Bill wants back in, he just tagged himself out.
Adams: Well in his defense it would be awful watching your wife be thrown around the ring like Mikah's chew toy.
Lifting Bea off the ring canvas Mikah scoops her right hand up over her neck and lifts Bea off her feet to connect with a spinning back breaker. Bea doubles over Mikah's bent knee and screams in pain before Mikah quickly goes for another cover.
ONE!
TWO!
Adams: OHMYGOD GET OUT!
The pin is broken up as Bill storms the ring and pulls Mikah off of his wife Bea. This enrages Kris who enters the ring and take it upon himself to send the big fella to the outside with a vicious spear. Mikah is calling for a disqualification, but as she is fighting with Jacob Bean snake sup behind her and rolls her up for a schoolgirl pin.
ONE!
TWO!
NO! Lucky for Mikah she is able to kick out keeping this match up alive. Bea gets back up to her feet and she drags Mikah up by the roots of her hair and without warning she slaps the taste out of her mouth once more. Kris and Bill have finally separated on the outside and return back to their corners
Simone: Kris is begging to be let back into this match.
Adams: Bill as well.
Bea drops Mikah to the canvas with a hip toss before she makes her way over looking to make the tag to get out of this match, but Mikah springs back up to her feet and she rushes towards Bea and clocks her one with a massive running boot to the back of her head. Mikah drags her back into the center of the ring before scooping her back up to her feet, Bea gets the upper hand as she fights of Mikah's hands before she drops her back to the canvas with a sit out jaw breaker. Bea makes the pin fall
ONE!
TWO!
Simone: Mikah isn't giving in that easy!!!
Adams: Kris is STILL begging for a tag.
Simone: Mikah feels like she has a point to prove, I think she'll try and see this one out.
Bea slaps the ring canvas in frustration before popping back up to her feet, stalking the fallen Mikah she sets her up for a punt to the back of her head as Bill screams directions at his wife from the ring apron. Mikah staggers to her feet and Bea charges towards her collecting her head and spinning around for a jumping DDT, NO! Mikah shoves her away, Bea spins around and walks straight into the TKO.
Adams: THE MIKAHANGELLLLLOOOOOOOOOOO!
Bea crumbles into a heap and Mikah makes the cover.
ONE!
Bill storms the ring once more, but Kris meets him halfway before he can touch Mikah again.
TWO!
THREE!
DING DING DING!
Justin: Here are your winners MIIIIIIKKKKKKAAAAAHHHH AND KRRRRIIIIIIISSSSSS RRRYYYYYAAAANNNNS
Kris and Bill come to blows after the bell as Bill is enraged about the outcome, but Jacob quickly steps in between the two heated males breaking up their fight. Mikah demands to have her hand raised as Bill finally moves away from Kris to check on his fallen wife. Jacob raises Mikah and Kris' arm up in victory.
Adams: I feel like there will be a discussion later about sharing the in-ring time.
Simone: I don't think he will mind, considering the Black Sheep have just walked out of Summer XXXTreme with a victory under their belts.
The cameras go backstage, and they find one half of tonight's host Melody Grace she is dressed to impress in a long yellow sparkly gown as she stands in front of the Bombshell's locker room. She doesn't waste any time as she bursts into the room and makes a bee line towards her best hair friend Kate Steele.
Melody: KAAAAAAAAATTTTEEEEE!!!
She screams.
Kate: MELLLLLLLLLLODDDDYYY!!
Kate and Melody rush towards each other and leap into each other arms for a hug. Melody takes a step back before she smooshes Kate's face in between her two hands.
Melody: OMG YOU LOOK AMAZING!
Kate goes to speak but she can't from Melody squeezing her cheeks.
Melody: I just wanted to say, I can't wait to see you kick some mega booty out there tonight and retain your Internet Championship, you deserve it girl and once your match is over with we will totally be celebrating...
Kate goes to say something but Melody cuts her off again because she is mega excited to be back on SCW TV.
Melody: I believe in you... you got this... you beautiful, beautiful cutie.
Melody let's go of Kate's cheeks and Kate can finally reply.
Kate: Thank you Melly.
Before they can say anything else, they hug each other again, screaming in excitement whilst jumping up and down as they are over the moon about being together again at a SCW show.
Adams: This boat really is magic at times Belinda.
Simone: I think they just blew out our speakers from screaming.
Justin:The following Bombshell Internet title match is scheduled for one fall...Introducing first...
"Come to Life" by Alter Bridge hits the speakers and the crowd lets out a strong reaction of support as Myra Rivers appears on the stage, already looking to take care of business. She heads down the ramp momentarily pausing at the bottom to give a quick smile at anyone nearby that is letting her know that they are behind her. Once the chorus starts, she gets inside of the ring and walks up to the opposite corner, adjacent to the ring announcer. She leans against the corner, focused and determined for her upcoming match, reveling in the continued showering of love the crowd is raining upon her.
Justin: The challenger, from Miami Florida, she is Myra Rivers!!
Simone: Myra Rivers is set to face Kate Steele for the Bombshell Internet title tonight.
Adams: And from the looks of her, she is going to be giving our champion a fight. Speaking of...
Diamond and the Gem Stones begins to blare all across the sound system and as it does we are able to see the likes of the Gem Stones playing on a tron. Ruby, Emerald, and Sapphire are all playing various instruments as we are able to see Diamond Steele emerging from the curtain with a microphone in her hand. She sings as loudly as she can to the sound of roaring cheers. Kate smirks as she just sings loudly which results in even more cheers. Diamond finally makes it to the ring and she quickly runs up the ring steps as she grabs the turnbuckle as hard as she can. She immediately leap frogs over the ropes and bounces about before she points at the crowd who cheers louder than before. She waves at them off as she throws the microphone to the side. She smirks as she opens up a pocket mirror and takes a moment to admire how beautiful her hair is as she waits for the match to begin.
Justin: And her opponent...The champion herself, Kate Steele!!
Adams: Kate Steele is coming out tonight to defend her title and if she is able to retain, she will have taken over the record for defenses and length of reign for the Internet title.
Simone: But she is facing Myra Rivers who will be looking for the win tonight as well.
Adams: And we are about to get started right now because there is the bell.
DING DING DING!
Myra and Kate begin to circle as Ruby on the outside is cheering Kate on. Rivers and Steele lock up in a collar and elbow tie up that neither woman can take advantage of until Kate moves enough to lock on a headlock. Myra pushes her off into the ropes and Kate rebounds with a clothesline that takes Myra to the mat. Looking down, Kate rushes to the opposite ropes. She rebounds as Myra throws herself to the mat forcing Kate to jump over her. A second rebound sees Kate caught by Myra who doubles Kate over with a running shoulder tackle to the midsection. Myra rolls to the side as Kate clutches her midsection and rolls to the ropes. Using the ropes to pull her upright, Kate turns to face Myra who is motioning for her to bring the fight. Kate cautiously moves forward as Myra lunges for a leg take down that she turns into a knee bar that has Steele screaming out in pain. Myra leans back as Kate fights to pull her leg away from the hold. Digging deep, Kate pulls herself towards the ropes in hopes of breaking the hold. Myra is pulled along and with a last ditch effort, Kate lunges close enough to the ropes for her to grab the bottom rope to force the break. Jasmine moves to warn Myra to let go of the hold as Kate pulls harder on the bottom rope. Myra lets the leg go and rolls to her feet as Kate drags herself out of the ring where Ruby meets her to check on the champion.
Adams: Smart move on Kate's part, going to the outside. Myra can't win the title out there.
Myra moves to the side of the ring and then drops to the mat to roll to the outside. She stalks around the ring towards Kate who sees her coming and takes her off her feet with a springboard crossbody off the ringsteps. Myra is down on the mats at ringside as Kate fights to her feet then reaching down, pulls Myra up by the hair and whips her under the bottom rope. Leaping on the apron, Kate slides between the ropes and moves to grab the feet of Myra. Seeing what Kate is about to do, Myra struggles to pull her feet away from the champion but her struggles move her closer to being turned. Kate uses the momentum to finish rolling Myra to her stomach and locking in a boston crab that now has Rivers suffering in pain. Myra pushes upward trying to fight off the hold as Kate leans back almost sitting on the small of Myra's back. Jasmine leans down to check on Myra and asking if she submits. Myra screams no as she fights to pull to the ropes. Kate sees the attempt and leans back farther which has Rivers clutching her head in pain. Jasmine again asks if she submits and Myra can't respond except to reach out for the ropes. Kate feels her leg slip and she falters which breaks the hold on the legs of Myra just enough for her to make a final lunge to clutch the ropes.
Simone: What a match Jason. Both women are working on the back and legs of her opponent to weaken them enough for the pin. But who will be getting that win? It is still a toss up if you ask me.
Myra lays on the bottom rope as she slowly crawls to the corner where she lays on the bottom turnbuckle. Kate works her way to her feet and turns to where she sees Myra on the ropes. Moving forward, Kate pulls Myra to her feet then sits her on the top turnbuckle. Myra is on the top but uses a top rope headscissors to evade the attempt at the silence is golden top rope blockbuster of Kate. Sending Steele to the mat, Myra is unable to capitalize as she lays on the mat breathing deeply. Jasmine checks on both women and begins her ten count. Kate manages to get to her feet then stagger towards Myra who is on her hands and knees. Pulling Rivers upward, Kate spins her around, catches her around the waist and then lifts her over with a german suplex that has Myra clutching at her head. Kate turns and gets to her feet once more to pull Myra to her feet and whips her into the corner. With Rivers leaning against the turnbuckles, Kate hits her with a yakuza kick that sends her to the mat. Jasmine moves towards the pair to push Kate away warning her to let Myra out of the corner. Kate holds up her hands as she backs away while Myra rolls slowly out to the apron then falls to the floor.
Adams: Myra Rivers is taking a helluva beating in this match Belinda.
Simone: But it looks like Kate is getting frustrated that she can't put this match away.
Kate moves to the ropes and is about to leave the ring when she is stopped by Jasmine who tells her to stay in the ring. Kate backs away as Jasmine looks over the ropes to check on Myra and begins her ten count. Kate moves to the side of the ring where she drops and rolls to the outside. Moving around the ring, she stalks towards Myra as Jasmine leans between the ropes and tries to warn her off. Kate ignores the referee as she helps Myra to her feet then whips her shoulder first into the steel ringpost. Myra staggers away cradling her arm against her chest in pain as Kate follows her. Grabbing her by the wrist, she once more wraps the arm of Myra violently around the steel ringpost. Jasmine has reached eight on her ten count when Kate rolls Myra into the ring then climbs inside as well. Myra is on her stomach holding her arm to her midsection as Kate rises slowly beside her. Myra pushes to her hands and knees but is unable to put any weight on the arm. Steele grasps it and then pushes down on Myra to force her to the mat near the ropes. Kate locks on a fujiwara armbar which has Myra screaming in pain as Jasmine checks on her.
Simone: Kate Steele is really punishing Myra Rivers in this match. I
Myra is fighting the hold as hard as she can as her feet reach towards the ropes. Her toe brushes by it as she tries to maneuver enough to get her foot draped on the rope. She manages to drape her foot across the rope which forces the break. Kate angrily gets to her feet and leans on the ropes as Myra crawls to the corner. Kate looks over the ringside area questioning where Myra is getting the luck from. Myra pulls herself to her feet and leans against the turnbuckles. Kate turns to Myra and charges into the corner with a shoulder block attempt but Myra pulls herself up and over which has Kate going shoulder first into the steel ringpost. Myra moves to pull Kate out of the corner then picks her up. Kate is staggered and swings wildly at Rivers who ducks then catches Steele with a kick to the midsection. Doubled over, Kate is pulled in and lifted to the shoulder of Myra who struggles to hold her up and get her into position. Suddenly, Kate is dropped by Myra with the Rebel Bomb which lays her out on her stomach as Myra rolls over to see the woman on the mat. Ducking her head against the side of Kate, Myra uses her upper body to roll the champion over before grabbing her leg and rolling her up for the pin.
Simone: Myra Rivers has the champion on the mat.
Jasmine drops and begins her count.
ONE!
Adams: Kate's moving...Myra needs to be careful that she doesn't kick out.
TWO!
Adams: Movement is getting stronger Belinda.
Simone: But not strong enough Jason because there is the three count,
THREE!
Adams: Myra Rivers has done it, she has beaten Kate Steele.
Jasmine slaps the mat for the final three.
DING DING DING!
Justin: The winner of the match, and NEW Bombshell Internet champion...Myra Rivers!!
Kate slowly rolls to her hands and knees then fights her way to her feet as Myra is on the mat holding her hands to her chest, still unable to believe she won the match. Kate moves to the referee and takes the belt. Holding it in front of her, she looks at it then at Myra who has slowly gotten to her feet. Kate aagain looks at the belt before holding it out to Myra who takes it then holds it high as Kate backs away and drops to roll out of the ring leaving Myra there to celebrate her win.
Adams: Class act by Kate Steele handing the new champion the belt.
Simone: It will be interesting to see what Kate has planned for herself now that she is no longer champion.
Kate moves towards the curtain and stops to turn back to the ring where Myra has climbed the turnbuckle to show off her belt. Smiling, Kate disappears behind the curtain as Come to Life blares out.
Before the next match gets underway, the big screen suddenly lights up with a video feed from another location. A pool lounger is seen, as well as a set of, um...plus sized legs? Next to it a scrawny pair. As the camera pans back, the familiar faces of Bobbie Dahl and Artie are seen, sipping on some yummy looking drinks with a little umbrella in them. Bobbie is in a leopard print one piece swimsuit, and Artie has on his swimming trunks and a t-shirt! Bobbie has on a large hat, blocking the sun from her face and she smiles into the camera.
Bobbie: Helllooooo everyone! Do you all miss me?!
Simone: That depends on what version she's speaking of.
Adams: Rude, Belinda! She looks great!
Bobbie waves into the camera, and Artie even does the same as they sit poolside.
Bobbie: I would have loved to be there with you all, but I decided to enjoy the show from the comfort of my home this year! Now, this little video is pre-recorded so I can't say how the show has been thus far, unless I'm tweeting about it right now, but it's highly possible. Hashtag SCWBobbieDahl, ya'll!
Artie slurps through his straw loudly, drinking the last of the contents of his glass. Bobbie looks to him and he frowns.
Artie: Oops. Sorry.
Bobbie: Annnnyway! I decided to do a little something fun today! As it is Summer XXXTreme, what better way to celebrate my favorite annual show, than the SCW Beefcakes in their swimming trunks! Am I right?!
Bobbie claps and Artie shakes his head.
Simone: Looks like the old Bobbie is back. Not sure how I feel about that.
Bobbie sets her drink down and reaches beside her, grabbing a pile of what appear to be 8x10 photographs. She grins as she sits up and claps her hands.
Bobbie: I have here in my lap, several photos that were sent to me this week from a very reliable and gracious source on board the ship! I won't say who, but they know who they are so...thanks, honey! These photos were taken of various SCW men as they were about to take a dip in the pool, and let me tell you...GOOD JOB FELLAS! I'm gonna rate these guys, but honestly, they're all winners in my book! First up!
Bobbie lifts up the first photograph- of Kris Ryans! She looks at it and grins.
Bobbie: Solid seven there, Kris. As cute as that butt of yours is in those trunks...it's a little small! But, I won't focus on you for very long, for obvious reasons.
She tosses the photo behind her and moves on to the next. Her smile grows as she brings the photograph up to reveal Austin James Mercer! Bobbie fans herself off with the photograph.
Bobbie: Hoooly sweet Jesus! I know I'm not part of the AJM fan club, but I'm a fan none-the-less! I mean...look at those buns! Solid 8.5, there!! Still...not quite the best. Moving on!!
Just like the previous one, she tosses the photo behind her. She pulls the next one up to reveal...Angel of Filth???
Adams: My eyes! My eyes!
Simone: Ummm...
Before Bobbie can speak, Artie looks at the picture and his eyes widen. He leans in and whispers into Bobbie's ear. She freaks and looks at the picture.
Bobbie: Angel of Filth?! What?! I thought that was HB Carter! MY BAD! So sorry, Carter!
She rips the photograph and tosses it behind her. The next one up shows Lachlan Kane posing on a ledge in his swim trunks!
Bobbie: 8.75 right here! But, being careful because I don't need his crazy wife coming after me again! Those abs though...Yum!
And the photo goes flying, but the wind catches it and it nearly smacks Artie in the face. He shakes his head as Bobbie pulls up a photo of...FENRIS?! But it was an older photograph from his Mr. Tight Buns contest! Bobbie smirks.
Bobbie: Honorable mention HAS to go to Fenris for that ass! 9.5 easily...
Bobbie doesn't throw this one. Instead, she sets it down on the table next to her, moving on to the next to last photo. We see none other than current World Heavyweight Champion Ben Jordan and Bobbie nearly faints!
Bobbie: Good God, Evie Jordan you are one lucky bitch! That right there is...I can't even! Lord I'ma faint! 9.9! 9.9!
Simone: Is it just me or has she not rated anyone a ten?
Adams: Something tells me that whoever that last photograph is will be her ten pointer.
Bobbie places the photograph of Ben Jordan right by the photo of Fenris. She nearly places it on top, but giggles and stops before she does.
Bobbie: Before I even show you the final photograph, I want you all the know, this one is the absolute TEN! The best of the best! No arguments needed because it's just sooo obvious!
Bobbie pulls up the final photo to reveal...
Simone: Oh My God! MY eyes!
Artie! That's right, the final photograph is of Artie in a little speedo! Artie's eyes go wide and his face flushes red from embarrassment as he jumps up from his seat and runs inside! Bobbie laughs.
Bobbie: My baby, Artie! That butt will always be my winner and can you argue with me on why?! Anyway, that's all I've got folks! Enjoy the rest of the show and miss you all! BOBBIE OUT!
Bobbie leans back in her lounger once more, propping her legs up and grabbing her drink as the video fades to black.
Cameras cut to a dimly lit corner of the ship as Shelby and Violet are finishing prepping for the upcoming battle with Candy. Shelby and Violet are booming with confidence as Violet looks toward the camera.
Violet: Tonight, I put an end to that walking troglodyte. Tonight, Candy finds out what happens when you poke the fucking bear. She wants to a fight while then she's got one. I just hope she's ready for the beating.
Violet laughs as she and Shelby continues to prepare for the match as the cameras cut away.
Simone: Welcome back to Summer XXXTreme and whilst the ship might not be moving, the show must go on! Coming up next, we will see a rematch from Into the Void as Candy looks to settle the score with Violet Amelia Holt.
Adams: When Candy and Violet met at Into the Void, it was for the Bombshell Roulette Championship in an Inferno Match which was ultimately won by Violet! Violet would subsequently lose that title to Seleana Zdunich at the Queen for a Day Special and Candy has not minced words about her one time challenger, even going as far as to say that Violet deserved to lose the title!
Simone: At the very least, Candy and Violet won't have to worry about getting set on fire this time! Let's take it to Justin!
Justin: The following contest is scheduled for one fall!
The lights dim as pink fog starts to take over the entrance ramp. "Pour Some Sugar on Me" by Def Leppard begins to play over the speakers as the lights brighten up. Pink pyro begins to cascade down from the tron as Candy comes bouncing out ready for action.
Justin: Introducing first, from Malibu Beach, California, Candy!
She skips her way down to the ring. She gets in the ring and bounces around some more as she waits for Violet.
Simone: Much like at Into the Void, Candy is without her Pomeranian Puppy Fluffy tonight.
Adams: And unlike Into the Void, it wasn't by choice because the cruise ship doesn't allow pets on board, not that that didn't stop Candy from trying to sneak Fluffy aboard which was why she didn't board until Thursday night.
Justin: And her opponent!
The lights softly die down as a countdown clock appears on the screen. Once the clock hits zero, "GIMME" strikes up as a young woman with blonde hair steps through the curtains with an older gentleman and another young woman alongside her. The crowd is mixed with their reactions.
Justin: Making her way to the ring being accompanied by her father Dustin Holt and sister Shelby Holt, from Port Charlotte, Florida. Please welcome Violet Amelia Holt
Violet sombrely walks down the ramp while whispering to her little sister. However, Violet's entourage quickly ducks out of the way as Candy hits a suicide dive on Violet prompting Drew to call for the bell.
DING DING DING!
Simone: I was all set to talk about Violet's month since she won the Roulette Title from Candy, but Candy isn't waiting to start the match!
Adams: Not that there's much of note, she hasn't picked up a win since Into the Void!
Candy continues to pummel away at Violet whilst Drew tries to restore order to the match not even seconds into it, after a few seconds Candy picks up Violet and rolls her into the ring and follows her back in before going for the first pin of the match.
ONE!
TWO!
And Violet gets the shoulder up, but Candy doesn't relent as she grabs the arm Violet used to get out of the pin attempt and locks in an armbar.
Simone: Candy is normally respectful of her opponents, but she seems intent on ripping Violet's arm out of its socket!
Adams: If she does do that, I'll faint! But at the same time, consider the tension between Violet and Candy is it really that surprising?
Drew switches positions to ask Violet if she wants to tap but Violet refuses before fighting her way back to her feet and delivering some stiff elbow shots with her free arm to Candy's face to break the hold and back Candy up towards the ring ropes, Violet then whips Candy across the ring before nailing her with a high dropkick to the chin and following that up with a Standing Shooting Star Press! Violet hooks the leg for her first pin of the match.
ONE!
TWO!
And Candy gets the shoulder up! Violet shakes her head before mounting Candy and starting to rain down fists to her face.
Simone: There is clearly no love lost between Candy and Violet!
Adams: Gee Belinda, what was your first clue?
Belinda shakes her head at her broadcast partner's blatant sarcasm whilst in the ring, Candy has caught one of Violet's arms and has locked in a Triangle Choke, Drew gets into position again and once again Violet refuses to submit initially trying to break the hold by punching Candy in the face, when that doesn't work she changes tactics by using her free hand to grab Candy around the throat and choke her.
Adams: The last time I saw a woman trying to choke a woman she was on top off was during a video I watched on the internet last night.......
Simone: Haven't said this in a while but KEEP IT CLEAN JASON!
Drew tries to get Violet to let go before she strangles Candy but underhanded tactic or not, it works as Candy is forced to relinquish the Triangle Choke to try to get free of Violet's chokehold! Violet isn't going to let go of it that easy however as she continues to choke Candy even after being freed from the Triangle Choke! Drew applies a four count and Violet let's go off the chokehold, however it seems she let go to argue with the ref.
Violet: She choked me first! Drew: That was a wrestling hold, what you were doing was either murder or requires buying a woman dinner first!Adams: See, even Drew is getting in on it!
Simone: I don't get paid enough for this!
Violet throws up her hands in frustration but that's all she can do before Candy rolls her up from behind with a School Girl!
ONE!
TWO!
And Violet gets the shoulder up! Both women get back to their feet and start throwing punches at each other with neither Candy nor Violet backing off from each other nor getting an advantage but after a few minutes Violet is backed up to the ropes and Candy backs off looking for a Clothesline only for Violet to duck under and try to backdrop Candy to the outside, that doesn't get further than that as Candy lands on the apron and spins Violet around before going to ram her face first into the nearest turnbuckle, but Violet blocks it and gives Candy a taste of her own medicine.
Simone: Candy nearly fell off the apron there!
Adams: And Violet is back in control!
Violet drags Candy back into the ring in between the middle and top rope and hits Candy with a Swinging Neckbreaker with Candy's feet on the ropes, Violet quickly goes for a cover.
ONE!
TWO!
And Candy gets her foot on the bottom rope! Violet sees this and drags Candy to the middle of the ring before going for another pin.
ONE!
TWO!
And Candy still gets the shoulder up! Violet starts arguing with Drew again though this time around we can't hear what they are saying.
Simone: You'd think the wrestlers would know better than to argue with a ref by now!
Adams: SCW has been active for eight years, not counting the hiatus, and the wrestlers still haven't learned!
Eventually the argument cools down as Candy has rolled out to the apron and ascended the top rope apparently looking for the Gumdrop! However Violet sees this out of the corner of her eye and rushes across the ring to cut Candy off before she can hit the finisher! Violet follows that up with two more shots for good measure and repositions Candy before climbing top the top rope and calling for a Hurricanrana to the outside.
Simone: I think Violet is trying to end this the same way her first match against Candy ended.
Adams: Only with one hundred percent less fire!
However, Candy prevents the attempt with a couple of shots to Violet's midsection and follows that up by shoving Violet back into the ring! Candy then steadies herself on the top rope before leaping off and hitting Violet with the Gumdrop!
Simone: Gumdrop! Candy hits it!
Adams: Stick a fork in Violet, she's done!
Candy goes for the pin!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
DING DING DING!
Justin: Here is your winner, Candy!
Simone: Candy avenges her loss to Violet at Into the Void leaving both women with one win apiece between them!
Adams: How long until we get a tie breaker?
Candy celebrates her win whilst Violet's family checks on her.
Kingingiseisha "Hitamashii" Shirasu is seen with his GRIME friends Andrew Garcia and Ivan Darrell, as well as managers Johan Svensson and Giovanni Teixeira to discuss Hitamashii's shot at the GRIME World title tonight, and Dying Breed's return to action at Supernova last night.
Hitamashii: I look forward to kicking a bunch of people's ass tonight in the Warrior's Brawl at Summer XXXtreme, taking the GRIME World championship off of Max Burke's hand. There is nothing, and I mean NOTHING, that will prevent me from becoming the GRIME World champion. At least that despite me not winning the Mayhem Survival match, GRIME did, meaning that GRIME controls booking
Andrew: Just like Ivan and I defeated Cyan and Saddie Brown just like we said we would. There is nothing preventing us from dominating the tag team division here in SCU.
Hitamashii: Let's go out there and show the world what GRIME is made of, especially those of us who stick together.
Hitamashii cackles and he, with his friends in tow, decide to go into the locker room to get ready for his match as the scene fades to black.
Justin: The following match is for the Sin City Wrestling Mixed Tag Team Championships... making their way to the ring first, the challengers...
Arena goes dark as the ominous tones of New Years Day's "Shut up" begins to blare. The entrance lights up as does the video screen that shows, climbing up a set of stairs we see with each step taken a different footwear. Saddle shoes followed by heels followed by Chuck Taylors followed by a pair of wrestling shoes with kickpads.
Justin: Coming to the ring, from New York, New York... Bella Madison.
The roar comes over the sound system as we see Bella standing on top of the entrance. She stands wearing her wrestling gear along with a ring jacket with the hood up and starts making her way to the ring. Towards the end of the chorus she hops up on the ring side and climbs to the second rope, drops the hood of the jacket with a smirk and a wink as the song fades out.
Justin: and her partner from Waterford, Ireland...Malachhhhiiiiiii
The quiet beginning of "Blood//Water" begins playing through the speakers as Malachi enters the arena to a solid mix of boos and cheers. He simply stares around at the crowd with a look of utter disinterest as he walks down the ramp towards the ring, climbing the steps and entering through the ropes. He climbs the turnbuckle and throws his arms to the side while staring out at the crowd again as his music fades away. He climbs down and sheds his jacket, tossing it to the corner as he rolls his wrists in preparation for the match.
Justin: And their opponents they are your current Sin City Wrestling Mixed Tag Team Champions... Alex Jones and Johanna Krieger
"War" By Palisades hits and as we come into the first verse Alex Jones and Johanna Krieger steps out, flanked on either side by Austin James Mercer and Alicia Lukas. They make their way to the centre of the top ramp showing their numbers, before Austin and Alicia step backstage allowing the current Mixed Tag Team Champions to head down towards the ring. They stop at the bottom of the ramp taking it all in before they enter the ring ready to get this match underway.
Malachi and Alex waste no time in coming to meet in the centre of the ring Johanna and Bella take a back seat as they head to the outside and Jacob calls for the bell.
DING DING DING!
Adams: And we are off and racing.
Malachi and Alex lock up in the middle of the ring and the two alpha males lock up in a power struggle. Malachi wastes no time in rag dolling Alex to the side, tossing him towards the ropes. Malachi takes a moment to boast about his actions, Alex take advantage to Malachi's taunting and he rolls him up for a schoolboy pin.
ONE!
TWO!
NO! Malachi powers out just in time keeping the match alive.
Adams: That would have been embarrassing.
Simone: Very much so.
Malachi is back to his feet and Alex ties him up, this time Alex gets the upper hand as he snakes his way around him gripping Malachi around his waste for a bear hug. Malachi though tosses Alex off of him sending the champion across the ring.
Simone: Johanna is desperate for the tag here.
Adams: Look at Bella she is so damn proud of her Malachi.
Alex looks up at Malachi from the canvas with a smirk, he gets back up and rushes towards Malachi and the two come to blows in the centre of the ring. Alex gets the advantage as she grabs a hold of Malachi stretching him out, exposing the side of his ribs before he clubs his closed fist across them, winding the challenger.
Adams: That could have broken a rib.
Simone: Look at Malachi's chest its already turning purple.
Alex tosses Malachi away like he was last night's leftovers. However, Malachi is in reach of Bella and she quickly leans over the top rope and tags herself into the match.
Simone: Well Alex just lost his advantage.
Malachi rolls out of the ring, as does Alex and in rushes Johanna and she wastes no time in spearing Bella into the corner before she drives her shoulder into the challengers midsection winding her. Bella yelps out in pain, but that doesn't stop Johanna as she continues the onslaught.
Adams: Get out of the corner Bella.
Bella grabs a hold of Johanna's hair yanking on it trying to buy an opening, but Johanna slaps her hands away before she slaps her hand across Bella's face. Bella falls down onto the canvas, but she's not hurt as she rushes towards Johanna's ankles knocking her off her feet.
Simone: Smart move by Bella.
Bella mounts Johanna and starts to lay into her with left and rights, Johanna is able to overpower Bella and she rolls out of the way. Both women are back up to their feet and they rush towards each other taking each other out with a double clothesline. Both Alex and Malachi are begging to be tagged back into the match. Johanna gets back up to her feet first and in a fit of fury she drives her foot down onto Bella's midsection stomping her. Bella rolls over in pain, reaching out for Malachi but Johanna walks over her trashing Malachi before she starts to toy with the challenger.
Adams: Oh, this won't end well.
Johanna stands on Bella's back and jumps before she drops down to her knees and grinds Bella's face into the canvas. Before she wraps Bella's long blond hair in between her fingers and forcefully pounds her head off the canvas over and over and over. Malachi is reaching in he wants to save Bella. Johanna just chuckles to herself before she gets back up to her feet.
Simone: The champions aren't mucking around tonight, especially not Johanna.
Johanna reaches down to drag Bella back up to her feet, but Bella with everything she has is able to weasel out of Johanna's grip before she plants her to the canvas with a sit out jaw breaker. With everything she can muster she makes her way back to Malachi making the tag.
Adams: The boys are back in town.
Simone: Johanna looks furious.
Alex storms the ring and he collides with Malachi, the challenger gets the upper hand tossing Alex to the side. Alex leaps back up to his feet and both men use the ropes for speed, and they rush towards one another, Alex ducks out of the way of Malachi, and on the return, Malachi leaps over Alex but on the third rush Alex drops Malachi forcefully with a spear. Alex drops down and hooks Malachi's leg looking for the win.
ONE!
TWO!
NO! Kick out.
Alex gets back up and he stomps on Malachi's back, Alex rushes to the closet ropes looking to punt the back of Malachi's head but Malachi weaves out oft the way and leaps back to his feet, Alex rushes towards him and Malachi flattens the champion with a spine buster. Alex is laid out, Malachi now makes the cover and Jacob is quick to slide in and make the count.
ONE!
TWO!
NO! Alex gets the shoulder up.
Adams: We almost had new champions Belinda.
Simone: What an upset that would have been.
Malachi is back to his feet he raises Alex up with him and the two start to exchange chops, Malachi backs Alex up against the ropes bit Alex fires back with a swift kick to Malachi's right knee dropping him down. Alex springs over Malachi and plants Malachi into the canvas with a sickening back crusher. Malachi is doubled over, and Alex goes for the win.
ONE!
TWO!
NO! Malachi kicks out again.
Adams: WOW... Malachi folded up like a camp chair.
Simone: I don't know how he didn't break his back.
Bella is begging for the tag on the ring apron, so is Johanna as she can tell Alex is getting frustrated. Alex gets back up to his feet, he drags Malachi up with him and he uses the ropes as a springboard sending Malachi flying into them looking to drive his knees into his back once more, but Malachi holds onto the ropes and Alex just hits the canvas.
Simone: Excellent counter by Malachi
Adams: Malachi needs to get to Bella.
Malachi moves across the ring evidently in pain and he is able to make it Bella tagging her in. Bella wastes little time in getting back into the match but Johanna comes storming in and slams Bella to the canvas with a massive shoulder block. Bella hits the canvas hard and Johanna goes to work on her shoulder, yanking on it, stomping on it doing everything she can to weaken it. She sends a stiff forearm into Bella's face knocking her down the canvas before she makes the cover.
ONE!
TWO!
NO! Bella just kicks out, but Johanna also seems to have pulled Bella up at the last second.
Adams: What's going on here?
Simone: Johanna obviously wants to milk this victory.
Adams: That sounds dirty.
Johanna drags Bella up to her feet and she is looking to put this match away with her world famous Krieger Clutch. Johanna smiles confidently as she looks to lock it in, but Bella drops down to the canvas saving herself, she quickly swings back up to her feet and with a vicious kick to Johanna' midsection she scoops her up for a pancaked-out DDT.
Adams: ASHES TO ASHES!!!!
Simone: COVER HER!
Bella crawls over Johanna and hooks the leg.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
Jacob calls for the bell.
DING DING DING!
Justin: Here are your winners... AND NEW MIXED TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS Malachi and Bellllllaaaaaa SASS N BASH!!!!
Simone: I.... I never saw that coming....
Adams: Neither did I but Sass N Bash have finally got their dream and became SCW Mixed Tag Team champions!
Just a short while ago, O'Malley did exactly what he said he was going to do, and he's backstage celebrating. Darcy would be, too, but she's currently trying to dry off, due to her winding up in the pool thanks to Victoria Thorn. O'Malley has both the Underground Championship and now the Roulette Championship, in his hands as he looks down at both belts.
O'Malley: This...this is something that none of the others from the GO Gym can say they've accomplished. I'm a double champ, love!
Darcy is furiously trying to dry her hair with a towel as she looks at O'Malley. She musters up the best smile she can, though she is not happy with what bad happened to her.
Darcy: Of course you are, my love. And I'm proud of you. But you'll have to excuse me for holding off on the celebrating right now because I'd like to get into some dry clothes!
O'Malley grins as he stares at her.
O'Malley: Why? We could just head back to our mini-suite now and start the celebratin' the best way we know how.
Darcy: I am not amused, O'Malley! I am looking forward to celebrating properly, but I'm a little agitated right now because that woman once again couldn't leave me alone!
O'Malley slowly approaches Darcy, a wicked grin on his face.
O'Malley: Ye know I love it when yer agitated like this. Sorry to do this, love, but off we go!
Darcy: Don't you--O'Malley!
O'Malley then hoists Darcy up on to his shoulder, holding the belts in his other hand, as he heads off down the hall, carrying back to their mini-suite, her screaming she can walk just fine. But he continues to carry her as the scene fades.
Liam: The following contest is a GRIME Rules Match, and is for the GRIME World Nightmare Championship!!!
The opening drum beat of "Lollirot" by Jack Off Jill begins blasting through the speakers as the light flash along with the music. As the instrumentals pick up, Kittie shoves her way through the curtains.
Liam: Iiiiiiiiintroducing first, from Henderson, NV, standing at 5'8" and weighing in at 135lb, she is... Kittie!!!
A spotlight lands on her as she pauses, throwing her head forward, and then back. She moves her head slowly from one side to the other. She throws her hands up in the air and lets out a scream before she starts skipping down the entryway. She bops her head to the side as she goes. She stops to stick her tongue out to tease a cheering fan or two, and then she continues skipping until about halfway to the ring. From there she makes a mad dash toward the ring, leaping onto the apron. She quickly bangs her head as she dances to the nearest turnbuckle. She climbs it, and pauses there, looking out across the audience through her hair as they cheer her on. She throws her middle fingers in the air before jumping down into the ring. She paces back and forth quickly as her music dies down.
The lights in the arena go out as the opening riffs of Going To Hell by The Pretty Recess begin to play throughout the sound system. As the music progresses, strobe lights flash around the building and smoke fills the entrance way. Moments later, Ruby bursts through the curtain, dancing seductively at the top of the ramp with a sick smile on her face and her signature whip in hand.
Liam: Making her way to the ring, from Las Vegas, NV standing at 5'6" and weighing in at 115lb, she is... Ruby!!!
She begins making her way to the ring licking her lips wickedly and twirling the whip along the way. She slides in under the ring and crawls her way seductively to the center of the ring. She stops in the center of the ring, staying on her knees as she laughs wickedly as her music finally dies down.
The haunting opening notes of Joke's on You begin to fill the venue as the lights lower to a crimson light that plays over the ramp where Vixen Staggs can be seen standing at the entrance dressed in dark tights and crimson halter under a studded black leather jacket. Walking to the beat, her lips smirking slightly as she avoids the reach of the crowd until she reaches ringside. Stopping at the side of the ring, she reaches up and pulls herself onto the apron and turns to offer a cocky salute to the fans before sliding between the ropes.
Liam: Introducing from Ottawa Ontario, she is the current World Nightmare Champion Vixen STAGGS!
Vixen climbs the turnbuckle to slowly peel off the leather jacket and hang it from the ringpost. She turns and relaxes on the top turnbuckle as she waits for the bell.
DING DING DING!
Erik: Ruby and Kittie immediately charge at Vixen, and the crowd goes nuts for the nostalgia factor. Now that's what I call ratings, Liam.
Liam: Vixen is able to dodge both ladies, but Kittie catches a wild kick that trips Vixen up. Ruby tackles her to the ground and begins pummeling the champ!
Erik: Kittie gives a few stomps before looking out to the audience. They are giving her a playful boo, and she walks over to the ropes.
Kittie: Do you guys want to see this get really fucked up?!
Crowd: YEAHHHHHHH!!!
Liam: Kittie slides to the outside of the ring as Vixen turns the tables on Ruby, pummeling her into the mat now. Vixen relents just long enough to scramble to her feet.
Erik: Ruby gets up part way and Vixen catches her with a Crescent Kick. She goes for a Standing Moonsault, but Ruby moves out of the way.
Liam: Kittie slides a bed of nails into the ring and the crowd begins cheering loudly. She slides into the ring and rolls Vixen up, hooking the leg as she lands on the nails!
Vixen: YUHHHHHHHH!!!
ONE!
TWO!
Kickout!
Erik: Vixen fights through the pain and kicks out of the pin. She rolls off of the nails, clutching onto her back. This woman, who does she even still have a back?
Liam: She must have a great dermatologist. She holds onto the ropes as Kittie tries to drag her away. However, Ruby spins Kittie around and hits a DDT onto the bed of nails!
Crowd: HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!
Erik: I second that emotion. Kittie shouts out as her short hair quickly starts to turn a shade of red. She rolls to the outside of the ring, rummaging through stuff until she finds cloth that she ties around her head.
Liam: She looks up and cusses at Ruby who just shrugs her shoulders with a sneer. She finds herself spun around and Bodyslammed onto the bed of nails. Vixen kicks Ruby multiple times.
Erik: Kittie rummages some more, finding a cooler of drinks from the ring crew, and she lifts it up onto the apron. She opens it, finding a bottle of beer. She cracks it open and takes a few swigs before smashing it down on the mat.
Liam: This draws Vixen's attention, and she rushes at Kittie for a Shoulderbutt, but Kittie dodges it. She picks up the cooler and tosses the contents at Vixen, stunning her with the cold.
Crowd: WET T-SHIRT CONTEST!!!
Erik: Kittie shrugs and then she tackles Vixen on top of a few bottles, cracking one or two, but knocking the rest to the outside. Kittie grabs onto Vixen's throat and begins choking as that crazy returns!
Liam: Kittie shrieks as she goes into full on psycho mode, and Vixen has a hard time breaking out of it. Thankfully Ruby bashes a beer bottle over her head, breaking up the choke. She then nails a DDT onto some of the broken glass.
ONE!
TWO!
NO!
Erik: Vixen saves her title with a kick to the side of Ruby's head. She picks Kittie up and tosses her to the outside of the ring. As Ruby holds onto her head, standing up, Vixen hits The Joke's on You (Sonia Deville's Hellavator)!
Liam: She goes for the cover, but Kittie tugs on Ruby's leg to break it up. She slowly gets up, but Vixen is mad. She grabs Kittie by the head covering and drags her up to her feet. Kittie, however, kicks Vixen in the stomach and nails the Eye of the Kat (Twist of Fate)!
Erik: She goes for the cover, and the referee slides into position to count!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!NO!
Erik: Ruby is barely able to get to her feet in time to drop an Ax Handle Smash over Vixen's back. She picks Vixen up and sets her up for the Joke's on You, but Ruby works her way out of it.
Liam: Ruby kicks Vixen in the stomach and goes to the top rope. With surprising accuracy, she hits a Shooting Star DDT, a la Misty Waters! She goes for the cover.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!NO!
Erik: Kittie barely makes it in time to break it up. She tackles Ruby to the mat, saving her chances of becoming the GRIME World Nightmare Champion!
Liam: Kittie and Ruby trade punches on the mat until Ruby is able to get to her feet. She kicks Kittie in the side of the head and then grabs onto her hair, doing a Hair Pull Mat Slam.
Erik: She drops an elbow and then goes up to the top rope. She sizes Kittie up for another Shooting Star DDT, but Kittie moves and hits a knee to the gut.
Liam:She goes for Kat's Cradle (Cradle Suplex), showboating before putting Ruby down on the mat. But before she can go for the cover, Vixen spins her around and plants her with the Joke's On You! She gets the cover!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
DING DING DING!
Liam: Here is your winner and STILL GRIME World Nightmare Champion... Vixen Staggs!!!
Vixen quickly grabs the belt as "Joke's On You" by Charlotte Lawrence plays over the speakers. She rolls out of the ring, not even bothering to celebrate at first. She stumbles to the rampway as a couple members of the medical team look at her back. She looks inside of the ring at the two SCW alumni that she's just put down.
Vinnie can be seen sitting in his locker room with a mirror in his hands
Good Vinnie: Okay, we are here once again Austin. You and me, another title match for me to win. But I don't know whether I should be the one beating you or it should be....
Bad Vinnie: It is of course going to be me Vinnie!!!
The face changed in the mirror as that simplifies the personification of the evil side of Vinnie. He is almost foaming from the mouth before laughing out loud.
Bad Vinnie: Can you imagine Daddy?? Having me to beat you??? Well at least you won't have to worry about whether Vinnie repeating the same thing over and over again!! I know you have an issue with losing to him of course!!!
The camera turns to Vinnie's face, showing a normal face on Vinnie's face.
Good Vinnie: He has an issue with me???
The shot turns back to his mirror as the sinister smile has returned.
Bad Vinnie: Oh don't worry Vinnie, after our match is over there's only one thing left to be remembered..... us being the NEW SCW Internet Champion.
With that the shot fades.
Suddenly, the arena lights turn off and the crowd is hyped up for what was in store. As the opening of "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me" by U2 blares across the PA system, the mood of the crowd changes instantly and the arena is under the subtle glowing of the lights. As the lyrics finally kick in, a figure emerges; the highlight of their attire is being under the illusion. Mercedes Vargas stops short of the entrance ramp, hands on waist, and overlooking the crowd.
Justin: Making her way to the ring, from Buenos Aires, Argentina, weighing in at 125 pounds, MERCEEEEEDEEEES VAAAARGAAAAS!
Cheers, boos and catcalls soon greet her. Oblivious and yet satisfied with their reaction for several seconds, she flips her long hair, then makes her way to the ring. As she goes up the steps and walks to the end of the ring apron, she climbs to the turnbuckle, then turns her head back as the camera shows her determined expression-perhaps a message that her opponent will be in for a tough fight. Mercedes vaults into the ring and walks over to the opposite corner where she relaxes along the corner ropes while waiting for her opponent to arrive. Meganerd by YTcracker begins to blast all across the speakers as it does so Christina Rose makes her way from the back curtain with her fiancee Seleana Zdunich. Christina smiles as she blows kisses to the crowd as she makes her way down to the ring. She slaps the outstretched hands of all of the roaring fans. She quickly slides into the ring and kips up to her feet as she waves her hands in the air getting the crowd behind her. She jumps around a bit as she tosses her eye glasses to her fiancee. Seleana smiles as she catches them as she claps for her future wife.
Justin: And her opponent, weighing in at 115 pounds and wrestling out of Los Angeles, California, CHRISTINA ROSE!!!
DING DING DING!
Mercedes Vargas and Christina Rose walk up to each other in the middle of the ring and stare each other down, the animosity palpable in the air as they do so. The two women glare through each other for what seems like years, neither even so much as flinching.
Adams: Wow!
Simone: When you've waited as long as these two have for this to come to a head like this, this is what you get.
Finally, Vargas and Rose lock-up in a traditional collar and elbow tie-up. The larger Vargas immediately forces Christina into the corner and unleashes a nasty reverse knife-edge chop in the corner. As Christina recoils from the impact, Vargas lets fly with a second, not bothering with her usual shushing beforehand. Christina's eyes almost try to come out of her head in shock at the pain as Vargas starts to machine gun the chops, hitting Christina with a dozen in rapid fire succession. As Christian starts to fall out of the corner, Vargas catches her and drives her down with a facebuster by grabbing Christina by the hair on the back of her head. Christina hits hard and rolls over onto her back, bleeding from the nose. Vargas jumps on looking for Divine Mercy only for Christina to roll into an inside cradle.

Vargas shushes anyone watching and then snaps off the Preemptive Strike, visibly enjoying the sound made especially as Christina cries out in pain. Vargas shushes everyone again, making particular emphasis this time as if there are a million people all screaming at once. She nods and then snaps off another chop.

Jasmine motions for Vargas to get it on and Vargas runs in. Christina catches her coming in for a rolling crab. Caught unaware again, Vargas cries out more in frustration than pain and reaches out for the bottom rope. She grabs it and the referee calls for the break. Christina shakes her head and holds on. The referee starts counting for the break.

The two get to their feet, Christina dragging Vargas. Vargas blocks a shot from Christiana dn then jumps into the RPM ending in a facebuster near the ropes. Christina rolls out onto the apron. Vargas gets up, Drag Christina to her feet backfirst against the ropes and then steps out to see her. Varags shushes everyone again and then goes for a chop. Christina catches the arm and jumps off the apron, driving Vargas face first onto the floor with a modified bulldog. Christina rolls away as Jasmine St. John calls on them to get back into the ring.

Justin: The winner of the match.... Christina Rose!
Adams: They say every rose has its thorn and I think Vargas just found hers!
Simone: Christina managed to find a way!
As Jasmine St. John checks on them, both women wave her off and stagger up to their feet. They stare at each other, both seeing the blood rolling down the other's face. Vargas nods and Christina nods back. They shake hands and then fall to one knee, neither really able to stand anymore.
The scene opens on the portside of the cruise ship where we see SCU Bombshell Krystal Wolfe walking around with an empty can of soda in her hand, Krystal is coming off a win at Supernova the previous night where she and Jennifer LeCrux beat two members of GRIME at their own game in a GRIME rules tag team match though GRIME still went on to win the Mayhem Survival Match granting them control over SCU programming.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: Krystal?
Krystal looks up and spots SCW interviewer Ms. Rocky Mountains up ahead of her.
Krystal: Either your looking for one of Christina Rose's personalities or you want to speak with me?
Ms. Rocky Mountains: It's the latter, I'm just surprised that you are out and about.
Rocky adds as she walks up to Krystal and Krystal shrugs.
Krystal: Why not? I'm still on this ship until tomorrow so as far as I'm concerned, I have a right to hang around! That said I have some things to get off my chest regarding GRIME.
Krystal adds before taking a deep breath.
Krystal: Summer XXXTreme III, way back in 2015, my friend Kylie got us tickets as an early birthday present to me as it was the first ever SCW show to be hosted in Australia, well just off the coast of Australia but still.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: Sorry to interrupt but just out of curiosity, you lived in Adelaide at the time, how far is that from Brisbane?
Krystal: Just under a day's travel by car, we made a road trip out of it and stayed in a hotel the night before, but back to my point, it was that show that helped me make my mind up about becoming a wrestler and I dreamt about making my Summer XXXTreme debut all the while whilst I was training under Gabriel.
Krystal adds before taking a deep breath.
Krystal: Granted I made my debut on Supernova rather than the main show but my point still stands, whilst I won my debut on this show GRIME ended up winning it big later that night as they got control over SCU programming.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: Do you have any words for GRIME?
Krystal: You idiots want the exposure? Fine, you can be exposed as the talentless hacks you are whilst the real stars on SCU shine brighter than ever before and if any member of the GRIME roster, and I don't care who they are whether it's Omassa or any of the washed up has-beens they brought out of the wood work to try to remain relevant it doesn't matter because I put you all down before you even think about fucking with matches, courtesy of the Down Under Thunderbomb from Krystal Wolfe!
Krystal walks off as the scene fades.
The fans begin to boo loudly as "Superficial" by Heidi Montag hits over the public address system
As the lights dim and flash gold all over the arena, a lone spotlight forms at the entrance ramp as out from the back first steps Leroy with a stern look on his face. After a few moments, Todd walks out from behind him, looking nervous. As he claps within a few seconds in arrogant and exaggerated fashion, Angel Kash herself walks out as the fans boo loudly.
Darlyn: And next, from The Hamptons, NY, standing at 5'9" and weighing in at 125lb, she is "The Trillion Dollar Princess"... Angel Kaaaaaaaaaaaashhhhhhhhhh!!!
Angel blows an arrogant kiss to the fans before doing a series of arrogant poses at the top of the ramp. She then says something to Todd and Leroy as they first go ahead, before the arrogant rich blonde bombshell does an arrogant supermodel like strut down to the ring, taunting the fans as she walks by them, before rudely sticking out her hand, and flipping her hair arrogantly as she brushes past the fans, not letting them even come close to touching her. She makes her way up the ring steps with Leroy, holding her hand from the outside, as Todd is standing in front of her on the ring apron. Angel then points down as he holds the ropes for her; she enters and poses in the center of the ring as the fans boo loudly. After that, she lays on the top turnbuckle nonchalantly taunting the fans as Todd hands her a mirror and she admires her beauty.
The SCUTron turns on. We see the Sun Devils football field with the drummers of the school's marching band in the middle of the field making the letters ASU for Arizona State University. The drums goes off twice, with a second pause before going off again twice repeating this process 3 times before the other drums come in. This happens twice before the group starts breaking formation.
The bugle team march onto the field as they begin to play...
ASU Marching band plays their version of Public Service Announcement II by Jay Z.
The Drummers move around as they form the letters SCU. The Bugle team marches in place below the letters making 6 rows underneath. The S and C break apart as the drummers making the U move to the side. The first row of bugle break up to join the drummers as they form the letters TV. The rest of the Bugle team break formation as they walk around the letters TV. Within 20 seconds they all gather under the letters TV to spell out CHAMPION.
The bugle breaks up and marches around the field for a bit as they start to slowly make out the name Melissa Ruin...
Darlyn: On the way to the ring she is a two time all American in Lacrosse and Basketball from Arizona State... She is your SCU TV Champion... Melissa Ruin!!!
DING DING DING!
Chad: Both ladies walk to the center of the ring. Melissa wants to tie up but Angel rakes Melissa in the eyes. The ref warns Angel, Angel pokes Melissa in the eyes. The ref warns her again as Angel just laughs about it.
Gena: Angel goes around the ref to grab Melissa and nails a body slam. Angel runs to the ropes, Melissa does a kip up to get to her feet. Angel bounces off, Melissa goes for a superkick but Angel ducks then bounces off the other ropes.
Chad: Melissa runs and clotheslines Angel almost knocking her over the top ropes. The two start trading legal strikes at each other.
Gena: The strike turns into hard chops to the chest as Melissa starts nailing Angel with chop after chop. Angel takes a step back as Melissa comes in chopping away... Angel pokes Melissa in the eyes.
Chad: The ref gets between them and gives Angel one last warning.
Gena: Smart on Angel as it buys her a few seconds.
Chad: The two now tie up, Melissa gets the advantage and picks Angel up for a stalling suplex!
Gena: Melissa drops Angel after a few seconds. Melissa quickly grabs Angel from behind for a sleeper hold. Angel tries to get off the hold but Melissa keeps it locked in.
Chad: You can't win a First Blood match by submission, but I guess if the challenger is unable to continue...
Gena: Melissa is proving to be smarter and smarter, and that started the second she told Angel where to shove it.
Chad: Angel is able to get to the ropes. There are no rope breaks, but Angel uses the ropes to pull herself against them, bumping Melissa into the ropes to knock her off.
Gena: Melissa pulls Angel all the way back in the ring as she tries to escape. Angel kicks Melissa in the face, getting some distance. As Angel gets up, Melissa charges with a clothesline into the ropes.
Chad: She turns Angel around and rakes her face across the top rope, back and forth, which is smart, too! Melissa is proving to be more and more vicious as well.
Gena: Angel hits an elbow to the side of Melissa's face, allowing her to drop and roll out of the ring. She pats at her forehead, seeing no blood, and she sighs in relief.
Chad: Melissa rolls outside of the ring and she grabs Angel by the hair, stopping her from running away. She whips Angel into the barricade, and then tackles her to the ground.
Gena: She's throwing hard, rapid fire punches at Angel's face, and Angel shouts out in surprise. She turns slightly and picks up a stray cup. She cracks the styrofoam, which stuns Melissa enough for Angel to hit a hard elbow, and then she crawls out from under.
Chad: As Angel rushes away, Melissa trips her up. She grabs onto Angel's hair and begins slamming her face first into the padded deck of the boat. She growls and roars angrily and the crowd is behind her one hundred and ten percent.
Gena: Angel knocks her head back into Melissa's face to knock her off of her. She immediately crawls away as we see Melissa's nose bleeding!
DING DING DING!
Darlyn: Here is your winner and NEW SCU Television Champion... Angel Kash!!!
Angel is shocked to hear this, so she looks back to see Melissa bleeding, and this probably wasn't the best idea. Melissa gives chase to her. Angel grabs the belt on her way around the ring, and she dives into the crowd, as the crowd boos her loudly.
The cameras go backstage and find Roxi Johnson, getting ready for her big match against Amber. The look of focus is unmatched on Roxi's face as she appears to be lost in her own little pre-match ritual, but the peace is short lived as Melody Grace is back on the scene this time sporting a long purple dress. As Roxi goes to switch positions Melody crash tackles her, wrapping her arms around Roxi's waist squeezing her tightly.
Melody: OHMYGOD OHMYGOD OHMYGOD!!
Roxi looks down to see Melody hanging off her and can't help but smile, just a little. Melody let's her go and sheepishly takes a few steps back.
Melody: I've missed you guuuuuurrrrl.
Melody clapped her hands together.
Melody: I just wanted to wish you luck out there tonight, I hope you smash the living heck out of that big bad bully Amber.
She frowned as Roxi just looked Melody up and down.
Melody: You got this... you're a superhero and she is the mega-ugly villain.
Melody nodded once more, but she couldn't help but notice Roxi's train of thought was elsewhere, so she quickly stole another hug from her before she wished her well again as Roxi's match was coming up soon. Roxi quickly took her exit, leaving a very concerned Melody behind.
The scene opens by the pool at Summer XXXTreme where we see the Pride Tag Team Champions Team Go nursing their injuries from the night before at Supernova when they are approached by Pussy Willow.
Pussy: Team Go, last night you successfully defended the Pride Tag Team Championships against Tim and Alexis Staggs only to get attacked by Andrey and Esther from GRIME..........
Ariana: Those fucking c**** can go fuck themselves!
Both Pussy and Carter's jaws drop to the floor from the shock of the strong language used by the youngest member of Team Go.
HBCarter: Honey, there are kids present..........
Ariana: I DON'T CARE!
HBCarter: Ari, please.........
Ariana: DON'T ARI ME! I have been the nice girl for way to fucking long!
Ariana adds before leaning forward.
Ariana: It was one thing for GRIME to cost us our rightful spots in the Mayhem Survival Match last night at Supernova but not only did they win that match but they sent out those fucking idiots to attack us after we had defended our titles in our first ever main event, ruining what was meant to be a great moment for Team Go, Carter?
Carter recovers from the shock and turns to Pussy.
HBCarter: If they want to challenge us, all they had to do was ask! It's like Krystal said earlier, they can dig up whatever dead wrestling career they want to try to revive it, but it won't work! Me and Ari are the future of SCU and SCW and we will bury the past on our way to the top!
Ariana: Because fortune favors the bold and Team Go will go the distance!
Pussy walks off as the scene fades.
Simone: And now we head back up to the ring for our next championship contest!
The camera is directed to the ring where Justin Decent stands with referee Drew Patton standing by.
The crowd is in anticipation of the arrival of the next wrestler as the lights go out and a huge cactus emerges upon the Titan Tron. We hear Epic from Metalachi hit the sound system as a big figure emerges in the dark, he slowly turns around as he stares at the Titan Tron where a large picture of Pete the Cactus emerges. His eyes are fixed on it before turning around and enters the ring.
Justin: Coming down the aisle, standing in at 6'8 and weighing in at 280 pounds!! Hailing from Tijuana, Mexico!! He is the challenger, Senor Vinnie!!!!
The spotlight shines upon the man as he looks up towards the ring, mumbling something while walking towards the ring. There he crawls over towards the center of the ring and stares at the fans at the front row seats. He then slowly walks towards the neutral corner and sits down and ignores the music of the next entrant.
Simone: It was at Summer XXXTreme VII where Senor Vinnie defeated Austin James Mercer for the World Heavyweight Championship. Can history repeat itself?
Adams: I wonder! Vinnie also got married on that show. If history repeats itself ... bigamy is illegal!
Simone: **sighs**
Justin: And his opponent...!
The lights shut off as "United Divided" by Voodoo Johnson kicks in, as it builds different lights flash around the arena. As the song builds into the refrain and the guitars kick in a spotlight forms on the stage with Austin standing in the middle.
Justin: From Manhattan, New York, weighing two hundred and sixty five pounds, he is the reigning and defending Internet Champion -- Austin James Mercer!
He makes his way down to the ring before moving around to the steps, he makes his way up and walks across the apron before stepping between the ropes, he stands in the center of the ring as the music shuts off.
Adams: Just look at the way Austin is staring at Vinnie!
Simone: Ever since this match was made official, we've seen both of these men take shots at one another on social media. To say that there is a lack of respect between these two is a vast understatement.
Austin hands the Internet title belt over to Drew who shows it to Vinnie and...
Adams: Vinnie just swiped the belt!
Simone: he can't seriously think Drew was GIVING him the title!?
Vinnie 'celebrates' with the belt but Drew manages to wrest it away! Austin shakes his head as Drew holds the belt up for everyone to see, then passes it out to Justin. Drew the calls for the bell and the start of the match...
DING DING DING!
And immediately both champion and challenger meet in the center of the ring, engaging in a verbal smackdown as they stand nose to nose!
Simone: I am glad we can't hear what those two are calling one another!
Adams: I know, you can practically hear the 'BEEP' all the way over here!
Suddenly, Vinnie lands a hard forearm shot to the side of the head that sends the champion staggering back, but Austin wheels back and returns the favor with his own blow to the head, knocking Vinnie back! Another shot from the challemnger and again from the champion! And suddenly the two towering competitors are swinging blindly at one another as this one has broken down before its even had a chance to begin!
Adams: Well we knew it wasn't going to be pretty!
Simone: And it is very few men who can get in the ring and stand toe to toe with Austin James mercer!
Both men suddenly break and throw themselves into the ropes and collide in a shoulder block to which neither budges! They run into the ropes a second time and this time, they swing clubbing lariats and send each other stumbling back, but neither man falls!
Adams: This. Is. Great!
Simone: And we are still just within the opening moments!
Austin then turns and stands tall and holds his hand up, spewing a vicious barb in Vinnie's direction that makes the challenger glare at the champion!
Simone: He's challenging Senor Vinnie to a test of strength!
Adams: Vinnie is bigger than Austin but not by much! Couple of inches and maybe fifteen pounds.
Simone: If Vinnie accepts, this could be interesting.
Vinnie nods and steps forward, reaching up and locks Mercer's hand with his own, likewise with the other-and it's on! Their upper chest's collide and neither gains an advantage as they push against each other! Vinnie looks as if he is gaining an edge but Austin fends him off, powering back!
Adams: This is a real Clash of the Titans!
Neither man is giving an inch when Vinnie buries a knee into Mercer's midsection, breaking the test-of-strength and giving the advantage to the challenger!
Simone: Vinnie taking a short cut there but the championship is on the line so...
Austin bends at the waist, winded and Vinnie goes on the attack, clobbering Mercer with repeated forearm shots to the back that drive the champion down to his knees! Vinnie pulls him up and goes for an Irish whip but Austin reverses it and catches him in a Tilt-A-Whirl slam!
Simone: Vinnie is two hundred and eighty pounds! An amazing feat of strength by Austin James Mercer!
Austin stands up and comes off the ropes with a guillotine leg drop across Vinnie's head and throat! Austin with the cover!
ONE!
TWO!
Vinnie kicks out!
Austin brings him up to his feet and drives him down with authority thanks to a full body slam! Austin rebounds off of the ropes and jumps, going for another leg drop, but Vinnie rolls out of the way and Austin hits hard on his tailbone!
Adams: I suppose the champ could use a life preserver as a donut pillow?
Vinnie pulls Mercer up and runs him hard to the far corner, slamming his head against the top turnbuckle! Austin stumbles out and Vinnie grabs him around the waist from behind and lands a release German suplex, folding the champion in half! Vinnie goes for the cover with a jackknife...
ONE!
Vinnie crawls off of the pin attempt with a smile.
Simone: What is he DOING??
Adams: I doubt he'd have pinned Austin there but... wow! What a nut!
Drew questions Vinnie who just smiles and nods at the official. Vinnie then grabs Mercer up and sends him back into the corner where he follows in with stiff kicks to the stomach. Vinnie then gets a running start around the ring and plows a big boot right into Austin's face!
Adams: One of the few men whose boot can reach Austin's head!
Senor Vinnie Irish whips him out towards the opposing corner but Austin reverses the attempt, sending Vinnie up and over with an overhead suplex! Austin and Vinnie BOTH lay on the canvas, trying to recuperate from this grueling encounter as Drew begins to issue his mandatory count against both Superstars...
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
FOUR!
FIVE!
Austin rolls over to his hands and knees and starts forcing himself back up to a vertical base!
SIX!
SEVEN!
EIGHT!
Vinnie uses the ring ropes to pull himself back to his feet -- and Austin plows right into him with a running elbow! Austin then runs off of the neutral side -- and Vinnie is right there with a big boot to the face!
Adams: This just keeps going back and forth!
Simone: Neither one of these men are willing to give anything up to the other!
Vinnie sets Austin up for a pump handle slam but as Vinnie lifts the 265 pounder up, Austin shifts his weight and lands in his feet behind the challenger! Austin ensnares him into a Full Nelson and throws him up into the air before driving him straight down! Austin covers him again!
ONE!
TWO!
Vinnie kicks out!
Simone: It's hard to keep Senor Vinnie down as many an opponent has found out over the years!
Adams: Mariachi Forever!
Simone: ....
Austin looks to Drew but the official confirms the count of two. The champion brings the challenger to his feet and hurls him I to the corner, but then Austin gets a running start and Vinnie moves aside at the last moment! Austin goes right between the top and middle turnbuckles, striking the ring post!
Simone: Good god! Austin could have knocked himself out after that!
Austin's upper body is dangling through the ropes and slumps out onto the ring apron. Vinnie keeps trying to go after him but Drew continuously ushers him back and away. A groggy Austin pulls himself to his feet and Vinnie immediately charges to shoulder block him off, but Austin dodges and Vinnie hangs himself halfway through the ropes! Austin connects with a charging knee strike to the side of the head, sending Vinnie stumbling back in!
Adams: Austin was waiting on him! He was playing possum!
Austin grabs Vinnie and makes the attempt to suplex him to the outside but Vinnie hangs on, blocking it! Vinnie then counters and tries to suplex Austin back into the ring but it gets blocked!
Simone: It's a power struggle! Who's going to win?
The answer is the champion! Slowly but surely, Austin powers Vinnie up, suplexing him over the ropes and to the outside! Vinnie crashes to the ringside floor...!
Simone: Good lord! What a nasty fall!
And Austin rolls over and falls off the apron himself and to the floor!
Adams: That one wasn't much better!
Now both men are on the outside, hurt and spent! Drew is on the outside, checking on both men but as they stir and show signs of life, the official climbs back into the ring to begin his count!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
FOUR!
FIVE!
SIX!
SEVEN!
Austin finally forces his way to his feet and falls back against the barricade!
EIGHT!
Adams: Don't let it end like this!
NINE!
Vinnie is on his feet and rolls back in the ring -- but Austin grabs him by the boot and drags him right back out, thus breaking the count! Austin grabs the mats around the ringside floor and pulls them up, exposing the deck of the ship underneath! Austin then grabs Vinnie and sets him up for a piledriver or perhaps even a powerbomb -- but Vinnie blocks it and suddenly counters, sending Mercer toppling over with a back body drop!
Simone: Austin took too much time!
Vinnie has an ugly look on his face and he suddenly pushes an agent from their chair and grabs it, wielding it menacingly over the head of the champion!
Adams: Don't do it!
Simone: You'll get your ass disqualified!
Adams: Yeah that's another reason!
Drew rolls to the outside quickly and warns Vinnie off! Vinnie rears back two times before he takes the official's words in and throws the chair down and off to the side!
Adams: Good Vinnie won out!
Vinnie then turns back around when -- !!
Adams: Mercenary Kick!
Vinnie laid out! Austin staggers to his feet and grabs the challenger, rolling him back to the inside! Drew climbs in as Austin climbs up onto the ring apron and steps through the ropes -- AND VINNIE KICKS THE ROPES, CROTCHING AUSTIN!
Adams: OWWW!!
Austin's eyes and mouth are wide open as he practically falls the rest of the way into the ring, and right into a DDT!
Simone: Face the Cactus!
Vinnie rolls Austin over and covers him, hooking the leg AND the tights!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
DING DING DING!
Justin: Here is your winner, and NEW Internet Champion! SENOR VINNIE!!!!!
Drew presents the title belt to the new champion! Vinnie pulls it away from the official and raises it high as Austin slowly rolls to the outside, still clutching himself!
Simone: Good Vinnie may have come out ahead earlier, but Bad Vinnie won in the end!
Adams: And Austin's dominant reign as champion is over!
Backstage, Roxi exits from her cabin, and begins to walk to where the ring is set up. Keira places a hand on her shoulder from behind, causing Roxi to stop and turn to her.
Roxi: Hey...I gotta go. I'm up.
Keira: I know that. Please be careful.
Roxi: Keira, I just need you to trust me.
Keira: I do, but...
Roxi: Listen, I don't know what's about to happen out there, but I need you to understand that this fight is mine. No matter what happens, you have to promise me you're going to stay back here. Please. Stay here. Be with Nate, and don't let him watch. I don't want him to see what's about to happen.
Keira: Roxi, I –
Roxi: No matter what. Please. For me. Promise me.
Keira finally nods.
Keira: Okay... I promise.
Roxi: Thank you. And Keira?
Keira: Yes?
Roxi: I love you.
Roxi kisses Keira on the lips, and then slowly begins to walk towards the ring, headed out for her match.
Justin: The following contest, is a NO DISQUALIFICATION MATCH!
Pulsing, red lights rolls over the crowd like a tide to the opening echoing chords of 'Roots' by In This Moment. Maria Brink's vocals seem to summon a familiar response from those who know what to expect. Those who don't, well they seem to follow the lead.
Most cheer in anticipation, but there are few who still jeer due to affiliations or just the fickle nature of a wrestling crowd on any given night. Atop the ramp, the lithe silhouette of the Distorted Angel seems to have materialised, soaking up the crowds reaction and energy. Fans reach out for acknowledgement and wave signs in the same way that others lean out over the rail as much as they dare to yell expletives and empty threats- some get a perceptive nod, a sly wink or perhaps even a kiss blown in sarcasm towards the most derisive.
Fluidly, Amber circles the ring- beelining for a camera person before trying to mess with them or talking some shit down into the camera lens.
Justin: Introducing first, from Atlantic City, New Jersey, weight 132 pounds, she is .... AMBER RYAN!
Slipping under the rope, Amber doesn't call for fanfare nor adulation, just making her way to the closest turnbuckle so that she might leisurely perch herself on the top with hands clasped and elbows resting on her knees in rather non-plussed outside of the trademark sly smirk seemingly ever-present on her features.
Adams: That is one dangerous woman.
Simone: That is an understatement. I have a bad feeling about what we're going to see here.
Justin: And her opponent... From Tampa, Florida, weighing 132 pounds.... THIS...IS... ROXI... JOHNSON!
The opening guitar riff of Rush' "Limelight" begin on the PA system. The cameras pan around the arena, and as the lyrics begin, Roxi Johnson rushes through the curtain and stops. Her eyes lock onto Amber's eyes, and Amber eases off the top rope, motioning for Roxi to come to the ring. Roxi begins to run down, sliding into the ring and taking Amber down with a double leg takedown!
Adams: And here we go!
Simone: Wasting no time getting it on!
DING DING DING
The bell rings and Roxi is already on top of Amber, having taken her down and is firing off right hands. She punches like mad for a few seconds, before Amber is able to push her away. Amber scrambles to her feet, only to get dropkicked by Roxi which sends her down. Amber again scrambles up into the corner and catches Roxi coming in with a sharp elbow. Amber grabs Roxi by the hair and tosses her into the same corner and begins punching Roxi with hard left hands. Roxi slumps down, but only for a moment, as she fights back up and punches back, and then unleashes a chop, backing Amber up. Roxi advances, only to catch a short knee into her ribs. The blow doubles Roxi over, and Amber again tosses her by the hair into the opposite corner. Amber now takes measured strikes with lefts and rights to the head, dropping Roxi into a seated position in the corner. Amber backs up a few steps, and then charges, running her right knee right into Roxi's temple!
Simone: These two are going to hurt each other.
Amber backs up as Roxi pulls herself up using the ropes. Amber moves in but Roxi will not back down either, firing off right hands and stumbling Amber for a few seconds. Roxi goes for an Irish whip, but Amber twists out of it, and jams her finger in Roxi's eye and face area!
Simone: She's going for the eye!
Adams: If Roxi wasn't blind before, she might be after this match!
Amber holds it there for a few seconds, causing Roxi to crumble to the mat. Amber slowly get to a standing position and Roxi starts to, but Amber kicks her in the head, and Roxi goes back down. Amber then exits the ring, and pulls Roxi's towards the outside, draping her head and neck over the apron, and then steps back and drives her elbow into Roxi's throat!
Simone: Amber has so many way to hurt people.
Roxi slumps to the outside and Amber has a sly grin on her face as she looks around, and then under the ring, presumably for a weapon. Roxi is slowly pulling herself up on the outside as well, and Amber goes over to meet her and then slams Roxi's face into the apron. Roxi stumbles away as Amber continues to try and find whatever she's looking for, as Roxi climbs up onto the apron. Amber sees and turns towards Roxi, climbing on the apron herself. Roxi and Amber again begin trading punches, until Roxi delivers a low dropkick to Amber's knee! Amber splats face-first on the apron and falls to the mat below.
Simone: Roxi is right back in the fight!
Amber holds her chin as she slowly gets up, and by the time she fully stands, she is met with a missile dropkick from Roxi from off the apron! Amber is sent careening and bouncing off the retaining wall!
Adams: What a dropkick and Amber is now down and hurt!
Simone: This is already out of control!
Roxi slowly gets to her feet as Amber claws at the ring skirt and apron to get back up. Roxi grabs Amber by the hair and returns the favor slamming Amber's head into the apron and tosses her back inside. Roxi slides back into the ring, and pulls Amber up, using a forearm to keep her stunned. Roxi tries for the Irish whip again, but Amber reverses. Amber throws up a leg for a kick, but Roxi is fast enough to catch it, and the steps over and nails Amber with a heel kick!
Simone: Roxi is lightning quick!
Adams: Quicker than a hiccup!
Roxi stands up and exits to the apron and begins to climb to the top rope. When Amber stands back up, Roxi jumps off for an axe handle, but Amber catches her with quick kick to the mid-section. Amber then hooks Roxi's arms, and prepared for the Original Sin!
Adams: Original Sin!
Simone: No! Countered!
Roxi does indeed counter with a back drop that sends Amber over the top to the floor below. Amber lands hard and Roxi waits for her to get up. Amber in the meantime looks under the ring again for an object. Roxi sees Amber getting up and she hits the ropes, and then dives through the ropes looking to attack Amber with a suicide dive, but Amber has a chair in her hands, and hurls it at Roxi, who cannot stop, and she takes the chair right in the face!
Adams: OH MY GOD!
Amber has dodged out of the way, and looks back over at Roxi who is lying face down on the ground. Amber grabs the chair she hurled at Roxi and sees the blood stains adorning it. She has a wicked grin looking over at Roxi who is slowly moving, but is bleeding profusely from the head! Amber goes to move in, but referee Drew Patton demands she re-enter the ring while he slips on medical gloves and tries to check on Roxi.
Adams: And Drew Patton is trying to make sure Roxi is okay.
Simone: I think he may just be trying to stop the carnage.
Amber gets back into the ring as Drew Patton makes sure Roxi is okay. Roxi slowly begins crawling towards the ring, even trying to push Drew away.
Drew Patton: Roxi... come on... I can stop this fight.
Roxi: You don't... stop this fight... no matter what... Get away!
Adams: Roxi is in bad shape.
Simone: Her face is a mess, but she just told Drew that she's going to continue.
Roxi claws at the ring apron herself and slowly rolls back into the ring. Amber simply walks over, and mounts Roxi, raining down hard punches to the head, attempting to open the cut on Roxi up even more. After a few hard shots, Amber stands up, displaying her now bloody taped knuckles.
Adams: This is getting ugly.
Roxi slowly begins to pull herself to her feet, but as soon as she does, Amber nails her with another hard punch. Roxi stumbles and staggers as Amber begins peppering her with punches, until one final hard left drops Roxi back to the canvas.
Adams: This is... getting hard to watch.
Simone: Look! Roxi is moving!
Roxi again crawls to the ropes, and Amber is seemingly amused by the pain she's causing. Roxi makes to the ropes in the corner and gets to a standing position, and motions for Amber to come and fight her, drawing a concerned cheer. Amber shakes her head and shrugs, obliging with more rights and lefts, before she hits the ropes and connects with a Yakuza kicks that drops Roxi like a rock. Amber makes a cover
ONE!
TWO!
THR –
Simone: She kicked out!
Roxi indeed rolls her right shoulder off the mat, and again begins to crawl to the ropes to get up. Amber watches in a morbid curiosity as Roxi gets to her feet, albeit unsteady.
Amber: THIS IS YOUR FAULT! ALL YOUR FAULT!
Roxi slowly turns with glassy eyes towards Amber, and again motions for her to bring the fight.
Adams: Oh no...
Simone: Roxi may just be delirious from this blood loss!
Amber's smirk turns into an angry frown as she nails Roxi again, but Roxi throws a punch back! Amber is stunned for a moment, and then delivers a barrage of punches, and then grabs Roxi's arm, and sets up, and spikes Roxi head first into the mat with the Calling card! Amber again makes the cover
ONE!
TWO!
THRE- NO! A KICKOUT!
Adams: This is... unbelievable.
Simone: Roxi said she wasn't going to give up. But I think at a certain point, you have to live to fight another day.
Amber at this point is less amused and more annoyed. She slides out of the ring, grabbing the bloody steel chair and re-entering the ring with it. Roxi rolls onto her stomach, trying to get back up, and then Amber swings the chair, bringing it down hard across Roxi's back! Roxi continues to try and get up, but Amber swings again and connects. Roxi stops moving. Amber throws the chair aside and makes another cover.
Adams: That's gotta be it.
ONE!
TWO!
TH- KICKOUT!
Adams: I don't believe it... I just don't believe this.
Amber is now highly annoyed as Roxi won't stay down. Amber gets up, hands on hips staring a hole through Roxi who continues to try and get back up. Amber continues to stare as Roxi woozily makes it back to her feet, held up by the ropes. Amber goes to attack again, but Roxi slaps her across the face!
Adams: Roxi has lost her mind... I think you hit the nail on the head, she's delirious!
Amber closes her eyes, now more annoyed than ever. She goes for a punch, but Roxi blocks and nails a right hand. Amber stumbles back, and fires a left. Roxi responds with another right, this time forcing Amber back even farther. Roxi strikes again, and again staggering Amber, until Amber again slips a knee in. Amber delivered a hard kick to the back of Roxi's legs and forces her to her knees. Amber hits the ropes, looking for a bomaye knee strike, but Roxi dodges out of the way. Amber bangs her knee on the mat and gets up slightly hobbling, and Roxi quickly hooks her head, runs up the ropes and swings around, spiking Amber with a tornado DDT! Roxi and Amber are both laid out from the match.
Adams: How are these two still going?
Simone: This is unreal. This cannot go on like this, they WILL end up killing each other.
As Drew checks on both women, Roxi makes it to the corner, and her glassy eyes appear cleared. She has a rush of adrenaline and quickly pulls herself up in the corner. Shockingly, she is the first one back on her feet. Roxi then grabs the chair, and she wallops Amber in the back! She then places the chair on Amber's torso, hit the ropes, and then connects with a rolling thunder! Roxi quickly uses the ropes to get back up as Amber rolls towards the center of the ring, holding her ribcage. Roxi take the opportunity and hits the ropes, and connects with a beautiful Reality Bites!
Adams: Improbable as it sounds, Roxi is going to try and win this! It's crazy!
Simone: She's lost a ton of blood, but she keeps fighting, I don't think Amber expected this much, especially after she busted Roxi open!
Roxi again pulls herself up, and waits. She is laser focused, despite the blood still on her face. She waits and as Amber gets up, Roxi, runs and springs off the rope
Simone: RAY OF HOPE!
Adams: MISSED!
Amber dodges at the last second, and Roxi lands awkwardly. She spins around, only to be nailed this time by the Bomaye! Amber scrambles into the cover!
ONE!
TWO!
THRE- NO!
Roxi barely manages to lift her arm off the mat.
Adams: AGAIN? HOW IN THE WORLD IS ROXI STILL MOVING?!
Amber is now frustrated. She stands up, staring at Roxi who is barely moving, but still trying to move. Amber gets up, and looks to end this. She drags Roxi into the center of the ring, and prepares to continue, but Roxi quickly kicks her in the knee, dropping her onto Roxi's knee! Amber holds her chin, only to get caught in a triangle choke!
Adams: JUSTICE LOCK! YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME!
Simone: ROXI MAY JUST PULL THIS OFF!
Amber frantically claws and scratches trying to escape. Roxi squeezes for all she's worth, and Amber shakes her head no when asked if she submits. Amber then digs with one hand into her pocket, and produces brass knuckles! Amber then fires off a shot that nails Roxi in the head! Roxi lets go of the choke and Amber rubs her throat and breaths, and re-mounts Roxi and uses the brass knuckles repeatedly and this opens up another cut on Roxi. After seeing even more blood, and Roxi almost unable to defend herself, Drew Patton waves it off and calls for the bell!
Justin: Ladies and Gentlemen, referee Drew Patton has stopped this match due to blood loss. Your winner ..... AMBER RYAN!
Adams: Mercifully, it's over.
Simone: Drew Patton did the right thing. Even though Roxi told him not to... I shudder to think what would have happened if this went on any longer.
Amber slowly rises as her arm is raised. She looks down at Roxi who is a bloody, crumpled heap, but still starts to try and get up. Amber is now perplexed as Roxi begins crawling towards her. Amber sneers as she gives another hard boot, kicking Roxi in the face and putting her back down. Amber turns to start to leave, looking back as Roxi is still down, slowly squirming on the mat. Amber finally decides to leave, headed back up the aisle.
Simone: Amber Ryan gets the win, and quite frankly that was impressive, and brutal.
As Amber music plays, she continues up the aisle. She raises her arms as she turns back seeing that Roxi somehow is back up! Again she motions for Amber to come back and continuing fighting her, stumbling towards the ropes and wiping the blood from her face and eyes. Amber scoffs and starts to walk back down to the ring, until medical personnel and staff rush past Amber to the ring with bandages and towels, forcing Roxi to stay in the ring and getting between her and Amber. Roxi tries to leave the ring to get at Amber, but she is stopped and basically subdued so they can tend to her.
Adams: I don't even know what to say...
Simone: Roxi is a warrior, and Amber proved just how violent she can be. But... I don't think this is over. Not even close.
Amber finally just turns, walking up the aisle and starting to feel the pain her body went through as she looks back one last time, seemingly proud of herself, but perhaps a bit amazed by all that was done. Amber disappears from view and Roxi is eventually bandaged up.
The cameras cut to the backstage area where Ben Jordan stands next to Pussy Willow, Ben's SCW World Heavyweight Championship over his shoulder.
Pussy: Ben, we're not too long away from the match the fans have been waiting for. How are you feeling?
Ben: There has been some absolutely cracking matches so far tonight Pussy, so you'd think the weight was on my shoulders to keep it going. I'm not feeling that weight mate, what I'm feeling is excitement, what I'm feeling is confidence.
Pussy: You asked for the best version of Griffin Hawkins, do you expect to get that?
Ben: Absolutely. I ean if you can't get fired up for a match like this, with everything on the line, you shouldn't be here. It's nights like this is what you live for when you're a wrestler. If you can't get up for this, you shouldn't be knocking about.
Pussy: Do you think asking for the best version of Griffin could come back and bite you?
Ben: I'm not worried, I'm confident. I've been ready for this match for a long time, since the second he put his name on the contract, I've been ready for this for a while.
Pussy: Social media has blown up with good luck message.
Ben: It has and I appreciate them all. Everyone knows this is gonna be a challenge, everyone is pulling in different directions but without being cheesy, I'm ready to rock and roll, I'm ready to go out there and prove to everyone that I'm a champion for a reason. I'm up and ready to go for this. Thank you all for the messages, I will show you that your faith in me has not been misplaced.
Ben winks at the camera and nods at Pussy as the camera cuts elsewhere.
Justin: And the following match is the first of two Main Event Matches and it is for the SCW Heavyweight Championship of the World!!!!
The lights tun colors from Red to Green to various other colors as "Livin' On A Prayer" by Bon Jovi begins to fill the air. Fog fills the stage, and emerging from it is none other than Griffin Hawkins!
Justin: Making his way to the ring...from Windsor, Ontario Canada...weighing in at 227 Pounds...put your hands together for Griffin Hawkins!!
The crowd is cheering as he makes his way down to the ring, slapping hands with the fans as signs that read "Griffin Rox" and "Rock Soldier" are present. He soaks in the positive reaction as he walks up the steps and steps between the ropes. He gets on the turnbuckles and raises the Devil Horns in the air with both hands, pumping the crowd up.
He gets down, taking off his leather jacket before getting out of the ring. He sees a young little boy in the front row as he takes off his silver aviator shades. He places his sunglasses on the young fan who looks excited to be here, smiling as he pats him on the head. He rolls back into the ring, and kicks his feet up ropes in the corner of the ring and leans across the turnbuckle like it's a hammock, waiting for the match to begin.
Justin: And his opponent!!!
The opening guitar riff to "Blame it on the Boom Boom" by Black Stone Cherry starts to play. The riff repeats itself once more. A British flag appears on the screen, waving with a gray filter and the lyrics kick in.
The familiar face of Ben Jordan appears on the screen. The fans instantly burst in to cheers as a smiling Ben Jordan appears at the top of the ramp, dressed in a white shorts with matching knee pads and boots. Ben looks around the crowd, his trademark smile on his face. He turns his head to the left, winking at the crowd before slowly walking down the ramp. He moves to the left, running his hand along the fans, high fiving as many as possible, before moving to the right and doing the same. Ben stops in front of a fan with a phone and moves next to them, allowing them to take a selfie with the smiling Englishman
Justin: Making his way down the aisle! From London, England, weighing 220 pounds -- Ben Jordan!
He stands outside the ring, looking up at ring, before moving to the steps and jumping up them. He ducks down and in to the ring through the middle and top rope and spins in to the corner, climbing on the top rope and raising his hands. He quickly jumps down and moves towards the center of the ring, looking at his opponent.
DING DING DING!
Jasmine is being handed the championship belt as she holds it up high for the number one contender before showing it to the champion. Then she hands it over to the time keeper as the two men circle each other before Ben extends his hand to shake that of Griffin, who looks around and asks the crowd of employees of the cruise ship whether he shake it also.
Simone: What a showmanship of respect of our champion towards the man that could very well stand toe to toe with him in many ways.
Adams: Question is, will he shake his hand??
After hearing the reaction from the crewmen he smiles and extends his hand and shakes it before the two men nod and circle each other once more. The two lock arms and attempt to get momentum on the other as Ben manages to get Griffin in a standing side headlock. Grinding his arm around the head of Griffin, who pushes Ben into the ropes and Irish Whips Ben in the ropes and leapfrogs over Ben before dropping down on his stomach as Ben comes off the ropes and jumps over him and stops before turning around. Griffin gets up and turns around before walking into a standing dropkick from the champion. This sends Griffin into the ropes as Ben follows it up immediately by grabbing his arm and pulls him up to his feet. There he delivers an Irish Whip into the opposite corner, follows Griffin to the other side of the ring in an attempt to deliver an avalanche into his back but Griffin manages to jump the turnbuckles and jumps over Ben and lands behind him. There he delivers series of Jabs before following it up with a Discus Clothesline that sends Ben down to the canvas. Griffin immediately jumps the second turnbuckle and executes a Moonsault on top of the champion and hooks his legs for the cover.
ONE!
TWO!
Ben bets his shoulder up and Griffin immediately grabs him by the arm and drives a knee into underneath the shoulder blade of Ben while pulling his arm backwards. Jasmine is checking on Ben if he wants to submit to the hold that Griffin ahs on him, but the Cockney King shakes his head and refuses to submit as he reaches for the ropes with his free arm. This forces Jasmine to tell Griffin to break the hold as he gets up and watches Ben to get up to his feet, he spins Ben around and sets Ben up for a scoop slam. But Ben manages to free himself out of the grip of Griffin and slides down behind his back into a backslide. Forcing Griffin to fall backwards into a pinning position, but instead of going for the cover it is Ben that gets up to his feet while holding on to the legs and lifts Griffin up from the canvas and executes a sit down Powerbomb in the middle of the ring for the cover.
ONE!
TWO!
Griffin manages to kick out as Ben grabs the legs once more as Griffin is now on his stomach.
Adams: Did you see the momentum change by Ben???
Simone: Sure did!! And I cannot remember him using this combination before!!!
Ben locks Griffin into a Boston Crab in the middle of the ring, sitting down on the lower back of the challenger and putting all of the pressure on that region as well as the legs of Griffin. Who is trying to claw away towards the ring ropes but is too far away to reach it just yet. He is shaking his head from left to right, telling Jasmine that he does not want to give in to the pressure that Ben has on him and continues to scratch and claw towards the ropes. Only to be pulled back to the centre of the ring by Ben as he lets go off the hold and sets him up for his finishing submission hold.
Simone: crossing Jordan coming up!!!
Adams: No!! Griffin manages to block it !!!
Griffin puts his hands out to make sure that Ben cannot lock his fingers in his finishing submission hold, pulling the fingers backwards as this causes Ben to scream out in agonizing pain and is forced to break the hold that he attempted to put on Griffin.
Simone: That was a smart move from Griffin, Ben is known for his submission wrestling and without being able to use his hands properly you have a bigger chance to escape the hold.
Griffin has the hands held in his own and executes a modified a Belly to Belly Suplex on Ben while holding on to the hands. Bridging on top of his head as he sends ben downwards before leaping on top of him for a pinning position, but only to have Ben pushing his legs upwards and then kicking Griffin up in the air. Causing Griffin to land down on his feet while Ben uses the momentum of Griffin to get to his as well and both men clash chest first in another test of strength. The cruise ship crew explode and applaud both men for their wrestling ability and willingness to excite the crowd with moves that are not used often. Ben manages to get the upper hand as he lifts both mens hands upwards and then pushes Griffin to his knees while the hands are still locked.
Adams: This match will be a sea saw type of match where I believe the one that wins will be the one that will capitalize upon a mistake from his opponent!!
Simone: indeed Jason, both men are so equally matched.
Griffin shakes his head telling Jasmine no as he does not want to submit to this hold, trying to get back to a knee and push himself upwards again. Ben uses all of his weight and pressure in an attempt to keep Griffin down, but in the end it is Griffin that manages to get to his feet. He jumps upwards, putting his feet into the midsection of Ben and lands backwards. When landing on the canvas he pushes Ben in the midsection with his feet and that causes Ben to be send onto the canvas before Griffin follows it up by rolling on top of Ben.
ONE!
TWO!
Ben gets his shoulders off the canvas by pushing his upper body off the canvas while resting on his head and the tips of his feet. Griffin jumps up and lands his knees on the midsection of Ben, forcing all the oxygen to escape Ben's lungs and that sends him crashing down on the canvas for another pin attempt.
ONE!
TWO!
Ben again pushes his upper body off the canvas, this time with Griffin on top of him as this causes Griffin's his eyes to grow bigger. He gets to his feet and jumps upwards, wanting to land on Ben's midsection in a sit down position. But Ben gets his knees up and that causes Griffin to land on it and drops down on the canvas holding on to his upper legs in pain.
Adams: Great counter wrestling from both men
Ben gets up to his feet, shaking his hands as he is trying to get some blood flow back to his hands before grabbing the legs of Griffin and sets him up for a figure four leglock. Ben drops downwards and then attempts to finalize the move with his leg to lock in the hold completely. But Griffin sits up and blocks the foot with both of his hands in an attempt to stop Ben's attempt to make him submit with one of the oldest and classical submission holds known to wrestling. Ben tries to push the hands away and after a few failed attempts finally finalizes. Causing Griffin's shoulders to fall backwards on the canvas due to the pain that he is enduring by Ben. This causes Jasmine to use the three count on him, counting his shoulders on the canvas.
ONE!
TWO!
But Griffin gets his upper body off the canvas in a sit down position and starts to use his hands to scratch and claw him to the ropes in a finalized attempt to break free. Ben does the same as this causes both men to remain in the middle of the ring as this causes Griffin to drop backwards on the canvas once more.
ONE!
TWO!
THRE...
Griffin gets up again, using all of his last ounces of strength to roll Ben over and reverse into a inverted Scorpion Deathlock. Ben is trying to block the move, but in the end it is Griffin that manages to roll Ben over to his stomach and then putting the pressure on his knee joints instead as Jasmine is now checking on the champ.
Simone: Another great counter!! Now it is Ben that needs to try to break the hold to remain in the match and not lose his belt!!!
Ben refuses to give in as he manages to finally roll back to his back, only to have Griffin to be near the ropes and grabbing it. Forcing Jasmine to break the hold and both men crawl away from each other as they are both in clear pain. Jasmine is using the ten count to see if they can continue the match
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
Both men grab the ropes as they are slowly trying to get to their feet
FOUR!
FIVE!
SIX!
Ben is to his feet first, rubbing his knees for a few moments before staring at Griffin. Who has got his back turned to him and Ben walks over to Griffin. Driving series of forearm smashes into the back of Griffin's neck before setting him up for a German Suplex. Only to have Griffin managing to somehow land on his feet, only to have his knee buckle down under the weight due to the figure four earlier on. But he bites on his lower lip and gets up as he watches Ben turn around slowly and then surprises him with a
Simone: SPEAR!!!!!
From out of nowhere Griffin manages to somehow execute a spear. Both men drop on the canvas as Griffin drops on his back next to Ben, both men are breathing heavily before Griffin places his arm on the chest of Ben after a few seconds
ONE!
TWO!
THRE....
Simone: NO!!!!!
Adams: I think if Griffin covered Ben sooner, he would have won it!!!!
Griffin realizes what just happened and puts his hands to his head and can be seen asking himself what to do next.
Simone: You shouldn't spend too much time asking why Griffin!! If you want to beat Ben you have to be all over him!!!
Griffin gets to his feet slowly, getting to a corner and seizes up Ben for another spear while trying to ignore the pain that his body has endured. We see Ben slowly stir and get to his feet. Ben turns around and we see Griffin charge in on him with another spear. Only to have Ben sidestep and Griffin hits the steel ring post with authority.
Adams: GOOD GRIEF!!!
Ben uses his final ounces of energy and grabs Griffin from behind, he grabs the arm of Griffin of his injured shoulder and sets him up for a slam with his arm behind Griffins back. He then drops Griffin hard on the canvas before setting him up for his Crossing Jordan once more. Only to have Griffin surprising him with a small package with his other arm.
ONE!
TWO!
Ben kicks out, he is momentarily disorientated as he gets up to his feet and turns around. Walking straight into a
Simone: Shot In The Dark!!!!!
Ben walks straight into a last moment superkick from Griffin, who drops on top of Ben while his injured arm is leaning motionless besides his body and his other arm grabs one of Ben's legs as Jasmine goes for the three count.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
DING DING DING!
Justin: The winner by pinfall and NEW SCW HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION!! GRIFFIN HAWKINS!!!
Simone: Oh My God!! He did it!!!!
Jasmine hands Griffin the championship belt as Griffin grabs it with his good arm, sitting up slowly while looking at the championship belt while staring at the gold that he had been wanting to obtain for so long as he starts to cry out of happiness. We can see Jasmine check on Ben as Griffin slowly tries to get to his feet and holds the title up high in the air for everyone to see that he has become the World Champion.
The camera go backstage, they are focused on Ben as he pushes through the black curtains to be met by a small crowd of SCU and SCW staff and superstars all shouting out words of encouragement to the former World Heavyweight Champion trying time lift his spirits. The cameras spot Evie frantically trying to make her way through the crowd, as she pushes past people without any consideration her focus was purely on getting to her husband.
Adams: GET OUT OF THE WAY PEOPLE.
Simone: I swear to God if you yell in my ear again tonight, I'll wallop you.
Ben sees Evie coming throw the people and he to makes a bee line towards her, they meet in the middle and the small crowd dies down around them. Leaving them to have a moment.
Evie: You were amazing out there.
Evie's voice was hard to pick up as she was whispering this was a private moment between the two but of course the cameras were there to catch it.
Ben: Ended on a high can't complain.
Ben matched her tone, knowing full well this was going to be streamed live. Evie just reached up and put her right hand on the side of Ben's face, looking deep into his eyes.
Evie: Don't you dare let this get you down. You are the most dominant, entertaining, exciting World Champion that has walked these halls and when you're ready you can take it all back.
Evie moved in closure to Ben, trying to block off their voices entirely from making the airways. As she wrapped her left arm around him taking a hug that Ben is all to happy to return.
Evie: I love you.
The cameras are still focused on the two but their voices are muffled as they go back and forth for a bit. Evie still has her hand on the side of Ben's face, as she brushes a few strands of his longer hair out of his face.
Adams: Well, we can't hear anything they are saying... but lucky for you guys I can lip read.
Simone: Since when?
Adams: Ben just said he is really tired and would like nothing more than a espresso martini.
Evie and Ben continue to whisper to one another.
Adams: Evie just said, make it a double and now Ben is saying something about wooly sheep are friends not food. Such a strange thing to say.
Simone: What I think is going on is they are both taking a moment to themselves and Evie is giving Ben a little bit of a pump up talk considering he just lost the World Heavyweight Championship.
Adams: Well... maybe.
Ben reaches down to press his lips on Evie's forehead. He gives her another squeeze before they seperate as they can hear Justin in the background hyping the main event. Ben taps on the World Bombshell Championship that's around Evie's waist, giving her a small pep talk before taking a step to the side turning towards the monitor to view her match that was next.
Adams: Gotta give it to Ben it wouldn't be easy for him right now having to watch his wife defend her title up next.
Simone: I'm pretty sure we all know how much of a stand up guy Ben is and he will be able to push aside his feelings right now to watch Evie do her thing.
Evie starts to walk off but she only gets a few steps away before she turns back and closes the gap between herself and her husband with pace. She makes it back to him and gives him one last hug, followed by a kiss. As they come apart, Ben winks down at him trying to reassure her that he is fine. The cameras pan back to ringside and get ready for the main event.
Alex Rush can be seen walking around the top deck, the SCU Hardcore Tag Team championship over his shoulder when Pussy Willow approaches him.
Pussy: Alex!
Alex: Marissa!
Pussy: Pussy....
Alex rocks his eyebrows up and down as he grins at her.
Alex: Well you're not backwards at coming forward are ya? I accept!
Pussy: I didn't mean that!
Alex: Well that's disappointing.
Pussy: While you're here, last night at Supernova III, you retained the Hardcore Tag Team championship with the Kawaii Dragons. Where are they?
Alex moves in closer as if to whispier.
Alex: Well... the thing is..... BOOOO!
Alex giggles as Pussy holds her chest as she jumps back, shocked by Alex and his fun ways.
Alex: You know when you jump, your melons are like two jelly molds that just wobble around. They're like the waves.
Pussy: Why did you do that?!?
Alex: Poopies and giggles. The Dragons could be anywhere. They're like little ninjas, they could be hiding right behind you and you wouldn't see them.
Pussy: So what's next for you?
Alex taps his chin.
Alex: Ice cream with bacon sprinkled on top.
Pussy looks confused but Alex waves at her.
Alex: Ta-rah for a bit!
And with that, Alex walks off camera.
Simone: Are you ready. This is what we have been waiting for and tonight three women will walk into a match and fight for the biggest prize in the company.
Adams: A lot is definitely at stake which include the title and also pride. Each of these women have been a dominating champion.
Simone: But only one will be able to emerge as a winner.
Justin: The following match is our main event for the evening and is for the SCW World Bombshell Championship!
"Wild Eyes" By Parkway drive hits as Alicia steps out with a black hoodie over her upper half with the hood up over her long blond hair. She makes her way down to the ring and runs up the steps before climbing the ropes on the outside, she flips the hood back before putting her arms out , she smiles at the crowd before leaping into the ring from the outside and taking off the hoodie.
Justin: Introducing first from Atlanta Georgia, she is Alicia Lukas!
Justin: From Sedona Arizona she is Andrea Hernandez!
"Ultranumb" by Blue Stahli hits the venue's soundwaves. Andrea appears on the stage to some strong cheers from the crowd. She she acknowledges the positive reaction that she's getting as she makes her way toward the ring, completely focused on the task at hand.
Justin: From Sedona Arizona she is Andrea Hernandez!
She gets up to the ring apron and uses the top rope to slingshot herself into it, continuing to soak in the cheers she gets as she leans against the corner, confidently waiting for what comes next.
The cameras whirl back around and focus on the top of stage before the lights cut off leaving the arena in darkness. The creepy and spine tickling sounds of an electric guitar come to life over the personal address system followed by a deep heavy drum beat. As "Anthem of the Year 2000" by SilverChair hits, the stage area dimly lights up glowing red. The lights continue to gradually get brighter to expose Evie Baang standing in the middle of the runway with her back to the crowd.
Justin: Making her way to the ring from Victor Harbour, South Australia the SCW WORLD BOMBSHELL CHAMPION... Evieeee Baaaang.
Evie turns around slowly and keeps her hoodie over her head before she makes her way down the ramp. She completely ignores the fans as her focus is on the ring in front of her. She slowly walks up the steal steps before stepping into the ring while the lighting gradually returns to normal. Evie walks around the ring pulling on the ropes getting ready for her match while her song slowly dies down to nothing.
Drew Patton holds the SCW World Bombshell Championship high into the air. Each of the three women look at it as they all smile. Patton calls for the bell as he hands the belt to somebody at ringside. The women can't help but glance at one another as they try to decide on their opening moves. Evie locks eyes with Andrea, and almost in unison the two of them begin to sprint towards one another.
DING DING DING!
Simone: These two absolutely hate one another and they are unleashing a fury upon one another.
Adams: Lukas is just sitting back at this point. Not trying to waste any energy.
Andrea backs up into the corner turnbuckle and that's when Evie rushes at her. Andrea leaps up locking her legs around the head of Jordan. She begins to twist for her tilt a whirl but Evie manages to gain the upper hand as she lifts Andrea high into the air and sends her outside with a vicious power bomb. Andrea's back hit's the mat with a thud as Evie smiles loving what she just did. Meanwhile that is when Alicia Lukas decides to finally strike. She delivers some very stiff kicks which causes Evie to back up.
Simone: Evie might have gotten the advantage over Andrea but this is a triple threat match.
Adams: Exactly and you always need to watch your back to be aware of where the third competitor is!
Alicia doesn't stop her fury as she counters by delivering some vicious Muay Thai knee lifts right into Evie's gut. Jordan tries to double over from the pain but Alicia tucks Evie underneath an arm as she slings her backwards for a snap suplex. Alicia nips up to her feet as she quickly leaps to the top of the turnbuckle. She sizes up Evie leaping off with a frog splash elbow drop that catches Evie right in her chest. Evie clutches in pain as Alicia hops on top of Evie for a pin.
Simone: Here is that deadly frog splash elbow drop!
Adams: This might be over already as Evie is having a hard time in breathing.
Patton drops down to make a count.
ONE!
TWO!
Andrea however is able to dive in the ring and break the attempt at the very last second. Andrea stands up as she spots Alicia trying her best to make it to her feet. Hernandez quickly kicks Alicia in the gut and she follows up by driving her head first into the mat with a sitout facebuster. Alicia reaches for her head in pain as Andrea floats over and locks Lukas up into a very tight camel clutch. She yanks back as far as she can and it is at that moment that Patton asks if Lukas wants to give up. Alicia refuses to give Hernandez the satisfaction of a verbal surrender. Evie however is up on her feet. She bounces off of the ropes and nails Andrea right in the jaw with a basement drop kick. Andrea falls backwards off of Lukas and Evie smiles as she screams for either of them to get up. Alicia is the one to get up first and that is when Evie runs at her and sends her crashing back down with a sling blade.
Simone: Evie is on fire here... She has managed to change things to her favor.
Adams: There is a reason why she is a champion and she is showcasing it tonight!
Andrea is back up on her feet and Evie quickly grabs her looking for a belly to belly suplex. Andrea however counters by smashing both of her hands around Evie's head. She does it over and over again until Evie gives her a small window. Andrea steps behind Evie wrapping her arms around her waist. Alicia however is back up to her feet and she steps behind Andrea and wraps her arms around both of their waists.
Simone: Lukas seems to have her arms wrapped around both women. What could she be thinking?!
Adams: I don't know but Lukas is the biggest woman in the ring so whatever it is you know it will be impressive!
Alicia smiles and it isn't long before she slings both women backwards at the same time with a very powerful German Suplex. The entire Sun Princess ship erupts into chants as Alicia stands up to her feet and raises her hands proudly into the air.
Crowd: HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!
Simone: ALICIA LUKAS JUST GERMAN SUPLEX 'D THESE WOMEN AT THE SAME TIME!!!
Adams: THE CROWD WE DO HAVE HERE IS ABSOLUTELY LOVING IT! HOW STRONG IS THE GEORGIA PEACH?!
Alicia is feeling the momentum as she watches both of her opponents struggling on the mat. Alicia however walks over to Evie Jordan. She yanks Evie in the middle of the ring and doesn't waste any time as she sets her up and puts her into her tight Lioness Bite. She has that Gorilla Lock standing cloverleaf ankle lock on tight and Evie has nowhere to go!
Simone: LIONESS BITE!!! WE WILL HAVE A NEW CHAMPION IF EVIE TAPS OUT HERE!!!
Adams: WAIT A MINUTE WHERE IS ANDREA HERNANDEZ GOING?!
Andrea Hernandez however is on the top of the ropes. She leaps off with a cross body. Alicia however is able to let go Evie and just as Andrea is about to collide with her Lukas manages to catch her in the middle of the air. She throws her up and nails her as hard as she can with a knee to the face. The crowd erupts once again into chants.
Crowd: HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!!
Simone: Alicia Lukas just Georgia Drop Andrea in midair!
Adams: I can't believe what I am seeing but mama just might be back home!
The impact sends Andrea rolling but Alicia stops her as she quickly drops down to make a pin.
ONE!
TWO!
THR......
NOOOOOOOO.... Drew Patton calls it off as he points to Andrea's leg which is hanging outside of the ring.
Simone: Alicia Lukas had the match won right there!!!! But Hernandez foot was hanging outside of the ring!
Adams: It's not over yet pin her again!
Alicia does exactly that as she pulls Andrea a little more inside of the ring and hooks a leg for the pin fall.
ONE!
TWO!
THR.... NOOOOO
At the very last second Evie Jordan breaks up the move as she shakes her head at Alicia Lukas. Alicia smiles as she nods her head in agreement loving the challenge. Alicia is on one knee and Jordan doesn't take any time to give Alicia breathing room as she quickly runs towards her. She looks for her Svetlana (drive by kick) Alicia however ducks as Evie gets caught in the ropes. Alicia pushes Evie right to the outside of the ring. Alicia sizes up Evie as she looks to plancha to the outside of the ring but as she leaps onto the ropes Andrea is there and PUSHES her out. Lukas falls to the outside of the ring as Andrea stands up looking at both of her opponents who are on the outside of the ring.
Simone: Great awareness by Andrea and now she is in full control.
Adams: But both of her opponents are outside of the ring and she needs one of them inside to win this thing!
Andrea looks at both of her opponents struggling on the outside of the ring. She smiles as she sends herself over the ropes to the outside of the ring with a plancha. She manages to land on both Alicia and Evie as all three women are out of it on the outside.
Simone: What a plancha and now all three women are out of it.
Adams: This is anybody's match. Every woman is knocked out. Whoever moves first might just win this thing!
Shockingly Evie is the first one to stir as she makes her way to the apron. Lukas is the next to stir as she follows suit climbing to the top of the apron. The two of them are fighting on top of the apron. Evie however sends a vicious leg between Lukas legs. Lukas screams as Evie lifts Alicia upwards and delivers her Toxic Maid (Air Raid) right onto the apron. Alicia's body is crushed on the apron in impact as Evie viciously kicks her forcing her to roll to the inside of the ring.
Simone: THAT'S IT... TOXIC MAID!!!
Adams: ALL EVIE NEEDS TO DO IS PIN ALICIA TO WIN THIS MATCH!!!!
Andrea however hops onto the apron and she sends a sharp elbow to the face of Evie. Evie clutches at her head as she falls to the inside of the ring. Andrea looks at Alicia who is out of it on the floor. She begins to ascend to the top of the ropes as she keeps her eyes locked on Alicia and begins to signal for her rise of the Phoenix.
Simone: She is calling for it and it can all end right here!!!
Adams: RISE OF THE PHOENIX!!!!
She leaps off of the ropes and nails her phoenix splash right on top of Alicia. The momentum causes her to pop up but the moment she does Evie is on her feet. She rushes at Andrea and nails her with Empty Beauty (Spanish Fly) right on top of Alicia's prone body. Andrea is out of it as Evie hooks Andrea's leg for a pin.
Simone: EMPTY BEAUTY OUT OF NOWHERE!!!
Adams: AND RIGHT ON TOP OF ALICIA LUKAS... THAT HAS TO BE IT!!!
Drew Patton drops down to make the count.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
DING DING DING
Simone: She did it!!! Evie Jordan has retained her championship tonight!!!
Adams: Evie has made a statement tonight!!! What a hard fought win.
Justin: The winner of this match and still your SCW World Bombshell Champion Evie Jordan!!!!!!!!
Drew Patton raises Evie Jordan's hands into the air. Evie grabs her championship and clutches onto it tightly as she raises it high into the air. She smirks as Alicia Lukas and Andrea Hernandez are in pain and are being checked on by Drew Patton.
Simone: What a weekend of wrestling it's been, From Supernova III to Summer XXXTreme.
Adams: It's been amazing.
Simone: Ladies and gentlemen, this is where we end. We'll see you in just 2 weeks time for another edition of Climax Control. Till then, stay safe. For Jason Adams, I'm Belinda Simone, saying good night everybody!
The camera fades to Evie raising the championship belt above her head.
