The crowd is alive with energy inside of the Galen Center in Los Angeles, California. The camera scans around the capacity crowd, cheering and waving while holding up signs for their favorites.

A spotlight then begins to shine and the crowd cheers as ring announcer Justin Decent steps out onto the stage. 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 at all of the fans filling the grandstand and the rows of seats around the grounds itself. 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 Galen Center right here in Los Angeles, California, and welcome to Sin City Wrestling "Blaze of Glory X"!

The fans cheer with excitement.

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

The fans cheer and applaud as the music starts and Amanda sashays out onto the stage, dressed as Aphrodite, goddess of love, complete with a golden curly wig. She waves at the crowd and the performance begins.

Amanda: If you're gonna go then go
She said to me on the phone

Boy problems, who's got 'em?

Boy trouble

The song ends, and Amanda prances about the stage, blowing kisses in all directions before vanishing backstage behind the curtains.

The camera then heads toward the broadcaster's table at the ringside area...

Simone: Hello everyone, on behalf of my colleague Jason Adams...

Jason leans over into the camera and gives an obvious wink and 'bang bang' salute.

Simone: I am Belinda Simone and WELCOME to the tenth annual Blaze of Glory Supershow!

Adams: Eighteen matches Bel! And four are some of the biggest matches that we've ever seen from Sin City Underground!

Simone: Indeed, not to mention the first time that the Blast From the Past finals with the World Heavyweight title on the line! But kicking things off tonight, the Bulldog aka Bill Barnhart puts his Roulette Championship on the line against Alexander Raven!

Adams: Then we have a big grudge match from SCU with even BIGGER stakes when Ariana Angelos takes on the woman that went power mad and has been a thorn in Team GO's side for months, the now FORMER SCU General Manager - Donna Beauchamp! And if Ari wins against all odds - Donna is gone forever!

Simone: Then we have the Battle of the Amazons, courtesy of "Hot Stuff" Mark Ward himself when Tempest takes on the equally imposing Ms. Jon!

Adams: That bloody wanker The Troll REALLY stepped in it this time when he actually tried to bearnap Angel! Ol' "Hot Stuff" was so pissed he's making Troll now face Despayre in the first-ever Angel On A Pole match!

Simone: Seleana Zdunich won the rights to face the Internet Champion, whomever she is, right here tonight at Blaze of Glory X! And the long-time and unbeaten champion Andrea Hernandez IS that defending champion!

Adams: Then a second grudge match from SCU when Cordelia Clark goes up against Morganna!

Simone: Then it's a Battle of the GO Gym when two of its most prominent stars go at it as the Original Evie Jordan goes one on one against the Future Krystal Wolfe!

Adams: Then we have the first of two Gauntlet matches tonight where the winner goes on to Into the Void IX to challenge for the Internet Championship with Goth! Agostino Romano! Finn Whelan! Supreme Machine! Miles Kasey and Jaycee MacDonald!

Simone: We are still not certain who Jessie Salco upset in the SCW hierarchy but it must have been bad because tonight she faces the mysterious entity Masque!

Adams: We finally get the match that we were meant to have three weeks ago when the Cockney King Ben Jordan takes on Lincoln Daniels!

Simone: Then it's the Bombshells turn at the Gauntlet, over the top rope eliminations until the final two, where the winner will face the Internet Champion at In to the Void IX! Crystal Zdunich! Chloe Benton! Bella Madison! Mercedes Vargas! Kat Jones and Levana Cade!

Adams: Next we are going to see a REAL Battle of the Alphas when the two biggest MMA turned pro wrestlers go at it when JC takes on Fenris! BOTH of these fellas have been dying for this match to happen, and so has the SCW Universe!

Simone: Then the SCU Underground Championship is on the line when the reigning champion Angel of Filth defends the title against Merlot Ayano!

Adams: The Internet Championship is on the line in a Triple Threat match which CAN'T make Jack Washington happy! He earned this spot but due to the champion - "Godly" Ken Davison's request, Matthew the Raven Knox has been added officially!

Simone: The Bombshell Roulette title will be on the line as the new champion Keira Fisher-Johnson defends against the woman who has been a thorn in the side of the entire SCW Universe, Diamond Steele!

Adams: Then it's the fabled Warrior's Brawl for the SCU Underground Championship! Hitamashii has all the odds against him as he defends against SEVEN challengers elimination style! His personal two biggest nemesis; Javier Gonzalez and Helluva Bottom Carter! Alex Rush! Mz. Holly Wood! Stewart Mason! Rory Rockefeller and Dax Beckett!

Simone: Then it is the finals of the 2022 Blast From the Past memorial tournament! The World Heavyweight Champion Mac Bane and his partner, one-half of the Mixed Tag Team Champions Mikah, takes on Max Burke and perennial contender Myra Rivers! And yes, if Max Burke defeats Mac Bane, the World title WILL change hands!

Adams: And the Main Event! One of the biggest in SCW Bombshell history when longtime World Champion Amber Ryans faces the Great One aka Roxi Johnson!

Simone: All this and more on Sin City Wrestling Blaze of Glory X!

We cut backstage to see Bill Barnhart and his wife/manager Bea Barnhart standing in the hallway with Sin City Wrestling interviewer Scott Oliver.

Scott: Well, Bill, we have now reached the point where you are defending the Roulette Championship for the third time. This is also the second time you are defending the Roulette Championship against Alexander Raven. What are your thoughts going into this match?

Bill: I'm going to defeat Alexander Raven again. I'll defeat him quicker than I did the first time. I'm going to beat Raven down so hard he may end up retiring from wrestling than to have to deal with another match with me.

Scott: How can you be so sure you can defeat Alexander Raven quicker than you did the last time?

Bill: Because in the first match I wanted Alex to have longer than five minutes before I won the match. Now that I see how he has become, and that he hasn't learned from his first loss to me, I'm going into this match to defeat him as quickly as I can. I don't care if I defeat him in less than a minute. The fact remains I'm going to win and continue on as Sin City Wrestling's Roulette Champion.

Scott: Bea we've been over this situation before but I want to talk to you a bit more about it now. You are in Bill's corner as his Manager. In that capacity you are there to provide encouragement and to ensure nobody attempts to run in on the match and interfere for the benefit of Bill's opponents. Anything you wish to add?

Bea: I honestly cannot see anyone on the Roster wanting to help Alexander Raven in this match. From the talk I hear backstage everyone wants him to lose quickly to Bill. However, Scott, should someone decide to try to interfere in the match I'll make sure I inform the Referee. Then I will do all I can to stop the perpetrator from interfering in the match. I know Senor Vinnie is standing by to run down to the ring if he is needed. I'll gladly tell you that most of the wrestlers support Bill more than they support Alexander Raven. Therefore I don't see any interference on behalf of Raven.

Scott: A final question for you Bea. Are you jealous that Bill obtained the Roulette Championship but you haven't yet obtained a Singles Championship but you did hold the Mixed Tag Team Championship with Bill for a short time.

Bea: No jealousy here Scott. I'm proud of Bill's accomplishment and when my time comes that I earn a Singles Championship Bill will be there to support me. We're here for each other. We're not here to be jealous of each other.

Scott: Thanks for your honest response Bea. Back to you Bill. Do you have any final comments for Alexander Raven before the match starts?

Bill: Raven you suck. Everyone knows you suck. Even you know you suck. I'm gonna make quick work of you shortly. So quick, in fact, that you may only remember the Timekeeper ringing the bell then the next thing you will know is that you wake up in the Intensive Care Unit. I'm not here to wrestle you, Raven, I'm here to destroy you!

Scott: Thanks for giving me your time for this interview.

At that closing comment the camera feed is cut and our screen goes dark.

Justin: The following contest is a THUMBTACKS MATCH! In this match, you must drive your opponent into 10000 thumbtacks in order to win and leave tonight as the SCW Roulette Champion!

As all the lights dim, blue and red lights begin to flicker on the stage, images of ravens flying appearing on the screen. 'Ladies and Gentleman' as these words fill the arena a loud bang of pyro is joined with blinding white lights. These flicker rapidly for a few moments, 'because the devil has my throat,' as these words of the song flow out, out steps Alexander Raven into the centre of the stage. He gazes across the crowd, pulling his cloak tightly around his shoulders, his eyes opened wide a slight smile tugging at his lips. The flashing off the lights stops. 'I am the powers that be!' in sync with these lines he throws his hands up, basking in the reaction of the crowd, beginning to slowly walk down the ramp. He strolls towards the ring leisurely, crossing his arms across his chest, head tilted back, soaking in the world around him. Slowly he begins to ascend the stairs to the left of the ramp, once in the ring, spinning his way to the centre of the ring, dropping to his knees. He hunches over and places his fists on the canvas. 'I am the alpha! and the omega!' as soon as these words come out, he lifts himself backwards slightly, the cloak slipping from his shoulders as he extends his arms to the sky, staring upwards, soaking everything in once again. Slowly he raises to his feet, pushing his cloak from the ring slowly with his foot.

Justin: Introducing the challenger, from Melbourne, Victoria, Australia... weighing in at 215 pounds... ALEXANDER RAVEN!!!!

Adams: The roulette wheel really gave us a barnburner. This is not going to be any old regular match. You have to figure that the challenger may be quite happy with this draw considering the rules are out the window.

Simone: Anything goes in this Thumbtacks match, you are right about that. Alexander will certainly take every advantage he can get considering that he's going to be outsized. Still, Alexander Raven is a man that is generally ready for anything.

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 his English Bulldog Iris leading her by a pink leash attached to her pink diamond-studded collar. When the song comes to the lyrics RAISE YOUR GLASS Bill Barnhart raises the chalice into the air. The crowd gives a mixed reaction to Barnhart. The two make their way to the ring where Bill hands the chalice to a ring attendant to hold onto until the match is over. Bill enters enters the ring then walks around the ring playing the crowd before settling into a corner.

Justin: And his opponent, from Lawrenceville, Georgia, weighing in at 240 pounds, he is the SCW Roulette Champion... BILL BARNHART!

Adams: This type of match is certainly not something up the alley of the champion considering he is more of an old-school brawler. However, Bill has been able to adjust to the unpredictability of this division quite well and he's looking to showcase that here.

Simone: Bill certainly has an experience advantage nonetheless. He's looking to prove that he should still be a champion in Sin City Wrestling. Of course, Bill is not someone that is afraid to get down and dirty in his own right.

DING DING DING!

Bill and Alexander trade some hard right hands with each other with neither man letting up. Bill comes in with a headbutt, but then Alexander comes in with a lariat that takes the Roulette Champion down. Raven stomps and kicks Barnhart for a bit before he picks him up and he nails him with a back suplex. Bill is holding the back of his head. Alexander waits for him to get to his knees and once he does so, Alexander comes in with a double knee to the chest, knocking Bill down to the mat. Alexander gets up and stands on the second rope. Bill gets to a vertical base and then Alexander knocks him down with a double axe handle.

Alexander waits for Bill to get up. He does so. Alexander grabs him from behind and nails Bill with a German suplex... or so he thinks. Bill lands right behind Alexander. Alexander turns around and Bill manages to counter with a belly to belly suplex. Bill is quick to leave the ring and grab his own Roulette Championship. He rolls back into the ring. Alexander gets to his knees and Bill clocks him in the back of the head with the championship. Alexander is laid out, but Bill is far from done. Bill lays the title down on the mat. He grabs Alexander and gets him back to a vertical base before getting him up and spinebustering him into the gold!

Adams: It should come as no surprise whatsoever that Bill is the first one to pull some dirty tricks out of the bag, no pun intended.

Simone: He's going to do whatever he has to do in order to retain that Roulette Championship and he certainly won't give a damn about Alexander's safety.

Alexander isn't moving as Bill rolls out of the ring. He reaches under the ring and pulls out a burlap sack. He slides it back into the ring before he rolls into the ring himself. Bill opens up the sack and pulls out a kendo stick. Alexander is barely starting to get up and then Bill smacks the stick across his spine. Alexander yells out in pain as Bill smacks him across the spine again. He smacks him a third time and at this point, the kendo stick snaps in two. Bill drags Alexander back up to a vertical base. He picks him up and then nails him with a Samoan drop near the center of the ring.

Bill reaches for the burlap sack. He pulls out a bag and he has a smirk on his face figuring that they are the thumbtacks. However, Alexander is able to recover and he jumps Bill from behind. Bill drops the bag and Alexander pummels him into the corner. Alexander reaches inside the sack and pulls out a stop sign. Bill is able to get back to a vertical base, but Alexander is there to smack it across his head. Bill stumbles, leaning back into the corner. Alexander pulls out a fire extinguisher and he drills Bill in the gut with it. Alexander drops it, then he gives Bill a snap DDT head first into the fire extinguisher!

Adams: OUCH! That's gotta hurt for Bill! Alexander was very resourceful with that fire extinguisher and Bill may have just gotten a concussion from that.

Simone: Raven isn't one to be underestimated in his own right. He's not going to back down. He doesn't care about Bill and he certainly doesn't care if he gives him a concussion if that's what it takes to flip the title.

Alexander goes ham and dumps out all of the burlap sack revealing various weapons. Bill begins to get back up but Alexander grabs the fire extinguisher and sprays it right in his face. Bill is blinded and by the time he can come to his senses, Alexander is running at him with a steel chair that nails him right across the face. Alexander isn't done as he takes the chair and smacks him in the lower back a couple of times. Alexander lifts up Bill and then he gives him a sidewalk slam back first into his own title. The challenger follows up with a standing moonsault, keeping Bill down on the mat while Alexander goes back to the pile of weapons.

Alexander notices the thumbtacks bag and he grabs it. He walks toward Bill. He's about to open the bag, but Bill surprises him with a drop toe hold that drives his face into the mat. Alexander loses the bag. Bill stomps Alexander for a bit before he picks him up and gives him a back suplex. He grabs a lead pipe from the pile of weapons and applies a sleeper hold with it. He strangles a struggling Alexander with the pipe before he drags him up and takes him down with a Russian legsweep. Alexander coughs with the pipe going right across the throat. For good measure, Bill clocks him in the back of the head with the pipe.

Adams: As you would expect with a stipulation like a thumbtacks match, this match has become an all out brawl.

Simone: This is a match that IS up the alley of both competitors, there is no question about that at all. Bill is back in control. He's got to find a way to maintain this to keep Raven at bay.

Bill then applies a rearnaked choke with the pipe. Alexander fades after a bit. Bill breaks the hold then delivers a few more shots to the gut for good measure. After that, Bill picks up a baking sheet. Alexander isn't moving and Bill makes things worse for him by getting him up for a bit and then driving his face into the baking sheet with a quick curb stomp. Bill smirks, gaining some confidence as he drags Alexander back up. He picks him up and then gives him a running powerslam into the championship gold. Bill picks up the fire extinguisher from earlier and viciously throws it down right across the gut to knock some wind out of his challenger.

Bill has a smirk on his face as he grabs the back of thumbtacks. He opens the bag and spreads out the thumbtacks, causing the crowd to become unglued for a bit. He drags Alexander back up and he's thinking about an STO, but Alexander is able to elbow Bill in the face to save himself. Alexander counters into a drop toe hold that sends Bill's face right into the championship. Bill rolls away. Alexander picks up a barbwire baseball bat and constantly guts Bill with it, striking him in the chest a couple of times. He drags Bill back up and whips him into the corner. Bill stumbles out of the corner and then Alexander picks him up and nails him with a hard backbreaker!

Adams: Raven is certainly giving the champion a run for his money here. He could perhaps be a few moments away from winning the title especially since the thumbtacks have been introduced into this match.

Simone: Bill bringing the thumbtacks into this match may end up backfiring in the end and it just may end up costing him his title...

Alexander starts to gain some confidence as he drags Bill back up. He whips him hard into the corner and then he runs up to him and nails him with a corner splash. Bill stumbles out of the corner and then Alexander picks him up and drills him with a T-bone suplex right off the rebound. Close enough to the corner, Alexander then follows up with a reverse corner slingshot splash. The Roulette Champion is in some trouble as he rolls away. A running knee to the head knocks him back down. Following that, the challenger drags Bill right back up. He drills him with the double hammerlock DDT into the gold and as a result, Bill has been busted open.

Alexander is feeling confident as he looks at the thumbtacks. He grabs Bill and drags him back up. He gets him up and drags him back for a bit, picking him up and getting ready for the Raven's Spine. However, Bill proves to be much too strong as he is able to escape. He grabs Alexander and then he gives him a belly to belly suplex. Bill goes back to the pile of weapons and grabs a glass jar. Alexander is getting up, but Bill comes up from behind and smashes the glass jar across the back of his neck, stunning him. Alexander goes down to a knee. Bill grabs him and drags him back toward the thumbtacks, picking him up and giving him a Tornado spinebuster right into the thumbtacks!

DING DING DING!

Justin: The winner of this match and STILL the SCW Roulette Champion... BILL BARNHART!

Adams: Alexander really wanted to go big at the end, but ultimately, the decision to attempt his finisher on someone larger than him backfired. Bill did what he had to do and despite being busted open, he retains the Roulette Championship here tonight.

Simone: Bill, no pun intended, is a real hard headed competitor. It certainly served him well tonight as he came away with the win. This was a hell of an entertaining brawl to open up Blaze of Glory!

Bill has a smirk on his bloody face as he is handed the title that he just retained. He wastes no time rolling out of the ring and celebrating as he goes up the ramp...

The scene opens backstage at Blaze of Glory X where we see SCU/GCW Bombshell Ariana Angelos ready for an interview with Pussy Willow.

Pussy: Ari, coming up next you have your match against SCU GM Donna Beauchamp, what are your thoughts on this?

Ariana: Well for one thing it's nice to be allowed into an arena again!

Pussy: Again? They really banned you from the SCU arenas?

Ariana: Yeah, in winter! I don't think I need to point out how cold it gets! At least after this cycle we'll be going to my family's home country of Greece!

Pussy: I remember you mentioning that fact, your family's from Corfu right?

Ariana: Right, it's a lovely island and I can't wait to show my friends the sights and sounds but before we get to that point, I have to beat up my incompetent boss! And by that I mean Donna, not Mark or Christian!

Pussy: Thanks for clarifying, I was worried for my job for a second there! Any other matches you're looking forward to tonight?

Ariana: There's the standard ones, namely the ones that feature my fellow Go Gym graduates like Tempest vs. Ms. Jon, Krystal Wolfe vs. Evie Jordan in a clash of the graduates from South Australia, Levana Cade's in the Bombshell Gauntlet Match, Fenris vs. JC and off course, my bestie HB Carter is finally going to win the SCU Underground Championship in the Warrior's Brawl match! I see tonight being a very good night for the Go Gym!

Pussy: Any last words for Donna?

Ariana: I'll keep this short and sweet, Donna, I don't need the handcuffs to be removed because I can beat you with both hands tied behind my back but once those handcuffs are removed? WATCH OUT! Because Donna will witness the grace of the Angel's Descent courtesy of "The Greek Angel" Ariana Angelos!

Ariana goes to walk off but pauses before stepping back into view.

Ariana: Oh and tune in to GCW's Shotgun this Wednesday night where I make my debut for that promotion against Chrystal Swift! She'll probably put up a better fight than Donna at least.

Pussy: I take it she's a trained wrestler?

Ariana: Yep!

Pussy: Then why the "probably"?

Ariana: Just because you're a trained wrestler doesn't mean your good at wrestling, see Apple Coren!

Ariana walks off as the scene fades.

Darlyn: The following contest is scheduled for one fall and is a Handcuff Grudge Match! First, already in the ring, from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, standing at 5'4" and weighing in at 127lb, she is... Donna Beauchamp!!!

"Crawling After You" by Bass Drum of Death plays over the speakers as Donna waves to the crowd, despite their booing of her. She settles into her corner, stretching her legs out.

The opening guitar riff to "In the Middle of the Night" by Within Temptation hits the speakers and the crowd comes unglued as Ariana emerges from the back wearing a long cloak with her initials on the back and with her back to the crowd.

Darlyn: Introducing first, from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, "The Greek Goddess" Ariana Angelos!!!

Ariana spins around right as the song kicks into high gear with the opening lyrics, she poses for the crowd as she makes her way down to the ring before rolling into the ring and removing her cloak ready for her match.

Before the match can start, the referee first puts handcuffs around Ariana's wrists, clicking them tightly. Donna points and laughs before stretching her legs out.

DING DING DING!

Gena: As soon as the bell rings, Donna rushes at Ari and begins smacking her. After six smacks, Ari kicks Donna in the stomach, doubling her over. She tries to stomp Donna, but Donna rolls out of the ring.

Chad: Donna quickly grabs a broomstick from under the ring and tries to get back inside of the ring, but Ari kicks at her, stopping her from re-entering. Donna swings the broomstick, nailing Ari in the shins.

Gena: Ari steps back, and Donna begins pulling things out from under the ring and throwing them at Ari, including a fire extinguisher, a trash can, a steel chair, and a wrench. After getting some distance, Donna gets back inside of the ring.

Chad: She begins wailing on Ari with the broomstick, getting her down to the mat. She then picks up the trash can and bashes Ari with it. She places it on Ari's chest and then drops an elbow onto the trash can.

Gena: She goes for a cover, but Ari kicks out before the referee can even count to one. Donna moves the trash can and tries again, but gets the same result. She drags Ari over to the corner and begins bashing her face into the turnbuckle.

Chad: Donna isn't doing too bad considering she's not actually a wrestler. Ari kicks Donna's knee, causing it to buckle. She turns around and grabs onto the top rope and lifts up to kick Donna in the face!

Gena: She then climbs onto the top rope, trying to steady herself before Donna gets up and slams down on the top rope, causing Ari to trip up. Donna catches Ari and drops her with a Piledriver, hooking the leg!

ONE!

TWO!

KICKOUT!

Chad: Ari rolls over onto her side as Donna picks up the steel chair. She begins trying to smash Ari with it, but Ari rolls back and forth, avoiding the shots. Donna throws the chair down to the ground, picking Ari up and nailing a Bulldog on top of the chair!

ONE!

TWO!

KICKOUT!

Gena: Donna slaps her hands together, telling the referee to do his job, or he'll be fired. Donna pulls Ari up from the mat and goes for another Bulldog, but Ari grounds her weight and does a Crescent Kick.

Chad: Donna goes back into the corner, and Ari charges her, looking for a battering ram style headbutt, but Donna moves out of the way. She then rolls Ari up into another pin!

ONE!

TWO!

KICKOUT!

Gena: Donna is not happy about this, but she doesn't waste time before picking up the fire extinguisher. She waits for Ari to get up, and she clocks her good with it, busting her open on her forehead!

Chad: Ari rolls to the ropes, struggling hard after that hit! Donna rolls her over and goes for a cover!

ONE!

TWO!

Chad: Ari gets her foot on the ropes! Donna growls out in frustration. She picks up the trash can once more, but the referee shouts at her to stop. Donna isn't happy until she realizes what time it is...

Gena: And the cuffs come off! Ari stretches out her arms and a big smile comes over her face, from under the bloody mess of hair. She pushes her hair back, and Donna charges her, but she ducks and grabs Donna from behind, nailing a German Suplex!

Chad: She gets up, and so does Donna! She ducks a Clothesline, and then drops Donna with a Neckbreaker! As Donna gets up, Ari kicks her in the stomach and nails a Sitout Jawbreaker! And the crowd is ecstatic!

Gena: Ari grabs Donna by the back of the head and takes her to each of the six corner, bouncing her head off of each one as the crowd counts with her! 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6!!! And she spins Donna around, nailing a Running Corner Dropkick before hitting a Running Bulldog!

Chad: Ari isn't wasting any time as she climbs up top. She looks out into the crowd as they cheer loudly. She then flies off with the Angel's Descent (Corkscrew Shooting Star Press)! She hooks the leg!

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

DING DING DING!

Darlyn: Here is your winner... Ariana Angelos!!!

The crowd cheers loudly for Ari as she stands up tall and proud. She raises her arms up in victory, walking around the ring, enjoying her return in front of the crowd. "In The Middle of the Night" by Within Temptation hits the speakers as she continues to celebrate. After a moment, she turns her attention to Donna and drags her to her feet. She tosses her over the ropes and quickly follows after. The crowd begins singing.

Crowd: NAH NAH NAH NAH, NAH NAH NAH NAH, HEY HEY HEY, GOOOOOOODBYEEEEEE!!!

Ari continues dragging Donna up the rampway and through the curtains as the crowd continues to sing.

The opening to "Stand My Ground" by Within Temptation hits the speakers and the crowd turns their attention towards the entrance ramp where Krystal Wolfe steps out in her street clothes and carrying a clipboard under her arm, the Aussie bombshell makes her way down the ramp and takes a mic from a stage hand as she approaches the ring.

Simone: Krystal isn't scheduled to compete until much later in the show, I wonder what she wants?

Adams: Aside from a chance to win back the Bombshell Roulette Title? Not much I bet!

Krystal rolls into the ring and waits for her music to stop playing before she starts addressing the crowd.

Krystal: So, hell of a night so far right?

Krystal asks and the crowd cheers in response.

Krystal: I won't try to occupy your time too much because I have an issue to address, not with any of the other Bombshells on the roster mind you, rather my now former manager.

Simone: Matthew?!

Adams: I heard he had declared bankruptcy after PTA was brought out!

Krystal: Come on out Matthew!

A few seconds pass before former SCW Superstar Matthew Kennedy walks out with a frown on his face, he enters the ring glaring at Krystal the whole time.

Matthew: Do we really need to do this out here? You know we could've discussed this in the back!

Krystal: I know, but it's more fun this way, now what was it you said when you returned at High Stakes XI? Oh yeah, you had signed a contract with SCW.

Matthew: Simple semantics, yes I am under contract with SCW but the real contract was with you until you let it expire earlier this month.

Krystal nods before taking out the clipboard.

Krystal: Yeah, your contract with me has expired but here's the thing Matt, the bosses were so unhappy with all the stunts you've pulled since you became my manager that they were this close to firing you, I pointed out that firing a guy who just declared bankruptcy is cruel, even for Christian so we discussed an alternative, feel free to read your new contract.

Krystal hands him the contract and Matthew goes over it, all colour drains from his face when it hits him.

Matthew: Starting from Blaze of Glory X. Matthew and Marty will become the personal assistants to Krystal and her extended family?!

Simone: Oh, that's going to sting!

Adams: I wonder what Krystal has in mind first?

Krystal: And wouldn't you know it? I have your first job all lined up for you, Cass?

Matthew closes his eyes and lowers his head as his former trainee and Krystal's younger cousin Cassie skips down the ramp with a massive grin on the teenager's face, Krystal reaches into her purse and hands Matthew a couple of hundred dollars.

Krystal: Now Matt, me and Makayla will be out of town for two weeks on our honeymoon, and Cass will have to go cold turkey if she wants to make the trip to Greece, tell me Cass, how much weed are you planning to smoke over the next two weeks?

Cass takes a mic from a stage hand.

Cassie: Is that a trick question?

Krystal: Nope! My point is Matt that your first job will be to treat Cass whenever she gets the munchies over the next two weeks, spoiler alert: that'll be at least twice a day!

Cassie: IF he's lucky!

Krystal: And she had better be satisfied to my standards by the time we return on the 27th and if I hear anything about a cruel April Fool's Joke, well, I might take that up with the bosses at Climax Control 226, have fun!

Krystal leaves the ring and Cass soon follows her, Matthew leaves reluctantly clearly unhappy with his situation.

In the ring, Dawn Barnes can be seen waiting for the match to be introduced as she checks on the ring ropes and turnbuckles.

Simone: This next match is going yto be a real fight for the ages with our two strongest bombshells in the locker room.

Justin Decent moves to the ring and climbing the ring stairs, he slides between the ropes and stands in the middle of the ring.

Adams: We are ready for the introductions for this match so let's go to Justin in the ring.

Justin: The following contest is scheduled for one fall...Introducing first...

Coming out to the top of the ramp is Ms. Jon's manager Martin Howe III with a microphone.

Martin Howe III: Good evening, my name is Martin Howe III, Primary Partner for the law firm of Dewey, Cheatum, and Howe. Tonight, I give to all of you my client, standing at 6 feet and weighing 272 pounds, she is one of the most destructive forces in all of wrestling, here is Ms. Jon!!

The peaceful tones of "The Day the World Went Away" by Nine Inch Nails engulfs the arena as Ms. Jon comes out from the back and is led to the ring by Martin Howe III. Ms. Jon pays no attention to the crowd along the way, focused only on the destruction that she is about to cause. Getting inside the ring, Ms. Jon simply goes to her corner, waiting for the massacre that she is about to unleash to begin while Martin Howe III screams instructions from the outside.

Justin: And her opponent...

The heavy beat of Halestorm's "You Call Me a Bitch Like It's a Bad Thing" kicks up over the sound system and the heads of the SCW Universe turns towards the entrance as the Bombshell amazon Tempest walks out onto the stage

Justin: And her opponent, coming to the ring! From Honolulu, Hawaii, weighing two hundred and eighteen pounds -- Tempest!

Adams: I hope they have reenforced the ring because the two of them could cause a lot of damage.

Simone: The SCW ring may not be able to contain these two.

The fans are in awe at the size of Tempest as she wastes no time in power walking straight to the ring, her eyes never straying from her destination and paying no mind to the fans reaching out toward her. A perpetual frown on her face, she arrives at the ringside area where she climbs up onto the ring apron and straight inside of the ring. Tempest stands in the center of the ring, her arms held out and turns full circle before moving to her corner.

Simone: Tempest is one intimidating woman. And so is Ms Jon.

Adams: We shall see Belinda because there is the bell.

DING DING DING!

Dawn Barnes motions for both women to move to the middle of the ring where Tempest sneers down at her opponent Jon. Jon glares back at the Hawaiian bombshell who only looks at the other woman then with a shake of her head, she grabs at Jon. Jon quickly ducks under the grab and races for the ropes to rebound off them charging in with a shoulder block. The impact with Tempest does nothing to Jon as both women stand there until Tempest violently sends Jon to the mat. Tempest laughs as she reaches down and pulls Jon to her feet with one hand. Picking her up, Tempest uses an awkward scoop slam that has Jon arching in pain. Tempest pushes Jon to the mat and leans down with one hand to hold her in a pin. Jon kicks out quickly and rolls away as Tempest glares at Barnes who motions for the one count. She turns to go after Jon who hits a superkick on the bigger woman. Tempest staggers backwards and brings her hand up to her face checking for blood. Seeing none, she charges towards Jon who had backed up to the ropes. Seeing the big woman coming at her, Jon drops as she pulls down the top rope which sends Tempest to the floor.

Adams: In this battle of the big bombshells, we are not going to see anyone being nice at all.

On the outside, Tempest stands at the ring apron glaring at Jon who rebounds off the opposite ropes and launches herself under the ropes with a baseball slide that takes both women down. Jon is slow to get up but she rises and rolls quickly into the ring. Tempest pulls herself up using the bottom rope and then pulls herself into the ring where she stands. Jon rushes across the ring and rebounding off the ropes, she launches herself up into the arms of Tempest who catches her in a bear hug but can't lock her arms around the big woman but tries to tighten the hold on her. Sliding her hand along the neck of Tempest, Jon tries to break the hold but Tempest once more tightens the bear hug that forces the air from the lungs of Jon. Sagging as she fights for breath, Jon reaches deep and begins to rain down forearms onto the head of Tempest who tries to shake them off. Jon arches and she forces her hand into a nerve hold that manages to force Tempest to release the hold slightly. Jon drops to the mat gagging for breath as Tempest walks along the ropes shaking feeling back into her arm. Jon rolls to the corner where she pulls herself up and sags against the turnbuckles. Tempest grabs a handful of hair and pulls Jon to the middle of the ring where she taunts her opponent who swings wildly trying to escape. Tempest brings her closer to headbutt her viciously. Jon doesn't sag in the hold of Tempest but returns the headbutt that rocks Tempest making Dawn check both Jon and Tempest. Tempest pulls her away from Dawn and then pulls Jon into another headbutt which she releases the head of Jon who drops to one knee on the mat.

Simone: Both women are trading headbutts that are making each other see stars.

Slowly standing up, Jon tries to get some distance from Tempest as she fights to recover along the ropes. Tempest moves to the ropes but is intercepted by Barnes who warns her away. Stepping back angrily, Tempest moves across the ring and towards the ropes as Dawn turns and begins to check on Jon in the corner. Tempest rolls out of the ring and moves around the ring to catch Jon. Jon sees her coming and drops to roll out of the ring. Tempest reaches her and the two women start to trade rights and lefts on the outside as Dawn counts. Tempest pulls herself up using the top rope to pull herself up on the apron as Jon yanks her back down by her feet causing Tempest to clam face first onto the ring apron. Barely able to stand, Jon sees Tempest sway and then hits a lariat hat sends Tempest into the ringpost apron into the barricade. Kneeling on the mats on the outside, Tempest checks her face as she breathes deeply. Working her way to her feet, Tempest turns as Jon uses the ringsteps to launch herself over to attempt a clothesline on the bigger woman. Tempest catches her and before she can flip the bigger woman, Tempest drops Jon back first onto the ring apron. Jon arches in pain clutching at her back as she falls to the floor. Tempest reaches down and picking her up, tosses her under the ropes and back into the ring. Jon lays on the mat as Tempest pulls herself up on the apron then slides between the ropes

Adams: I don't know who is more determined to win this match Belinda.

Simone: From the looks of it, Tempest has a bit more fire. Oh my god Jason...look at Tempest!

Once inside the ring, Tempest straightens up as she stalks towards Jon who is slowly pulling herself up by the ropes. She slowly moves toward the corner and is helped the last few feet by Tempest who spins her around and sets her up against the turnbuckles. Tempest pulls Jon onto her shoulders and begins to climb the turnbuckles but Jon kicks and struggles enough to get into a position to use the top rope to unbalance Tempest and takes her to the mat with a desperation splash. Both bombshells are laid out breathing heavily as Jon rolls to her stomach then crawls ever so slowly towards the downed Tempest and falls over her in a pin attempt. Dawn manages to get into position then hits a one count but Tempest powers Jon off her shoulders then rolls over to see Jon slam her hands against the mat in frustration. Tempest makes her way to her feet then whips Jon into the ropes and catches the rebounding bombshell with a running clothesline that takes her out of her boots. Jon is laid out on the mat as Tempest moves to pin her by planting her boot on the chest of Jon. Desperately, Jon manages to raise her shoulder enough before the three count to break up the pin. Tempest glares at Dawn as she reaches down and pulls Jon up by the hair. The big woman barks at Barnes to count faster as she picks up Jon to lay her over her shoulders.

Simone: Tempest has some monster strength Jason to be able to pick up Ms Jon

Tempest begins to bend Jon the wrong way forcing a scream of pain from Jon. Tempest keeps up the pressure as Jon tries to hit out at her opponent. Tempest taunts the fans before turning and picking up Jon, sets her into position then drops her with the Amazon Prime powerbomb that lays out the smaller woman. Tempest rolls over and pins Jon..

Simone: The Amazon Prime!

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

DING DING DING!

Justin: The winner of the match, TEMPEST

The large woman gets to her feet and ignores the prone Jon as she raises both her hands in victory. Dawn kneels to check on Ms Jon as Tempest smirks before sliding between the ropes to stand on the apron and once more taunt the fans with her arms raised in challenge. Dropping to the floor, she moves up the ramp as her music plays. In the ring, Jon is slowly making her way to the ropes with the help of Barnes. Sliding under the ropes, she stomps up the ramp behind Tempest and heads backstage as Barnes follows her.

Adams: What a match Belinda.

Simone: I can't argue with you there Jason however, I don't think that this is the last time these two will meet..

Tempest turns at the top of the ramp forcing Jon to stop. She takes a couple of steps towards the pair but Drew warns her off. She smirks as she heads through the curtain. Jon and Dawn wait for a moment then follow her through.

We cut to the backstage area and it is there where we are able to see Crystal Zdunich. She bounces about with a grin on her face as she can hear the roaring crowds in the background cheering her on. She has a list in her hand that reads Crystal's checklist. She smiles showing the camera as it has the five names of Mikah, Mercedes, Alicia Lukas, Amber Ryan, and Andrea Hernandez. She grins as she looks over at her wife Seleana who seems to be getting ready for her big match.

Crystal: Okay my little Swedish fishy. Are you ready for tonight?! I have a feeling that it's going to be absolutely amazing. Last Super Card I was sick with Covid but tonight SCW is live from what I would call my home town. The city I have lived in for the majority of my life. WE ARE IN LOS ANGELES BABY! Vi är hemma älskling!!! There's no place like home right?!

Seleana: Ja, Estrellita, this is the truth! I am keen for this tonight!

Crystal: As you should be because we are in Los Angeles!!!!

Aurora Zdunich runs off to her mothers and she hugs both women. She isn't alone as Juliet Warren-Steele is also by her side. The two girls smile as they smile.

Aurora: Hi mommies!

Juliet: Hiya Auntie Chrissy and Sel... You going to kick butt tonight?!

Crystal: Am I going to kick some butt?! You can bet your bottom dollar I am going to DO EXACTLY THAT! Truth be told I can finally say that after months and maybe years of soul searching the redemption story has officially come to an end. No more running away. No more trying to figure things out. The truth is I already knew who I was but I was afraid. I was afraid of simply admitting that I am me. If you want to call me Crystal Hilton!

Aurora: That's you!!!

Crystal: If you want to make fun of me and call me Crystalina Millar Hilton Lopez Zdunich Williams. Guess what?! That is me as well. The truth is none of your words can hurt me anymore because I know that I have worked my ass off to get here. It doesn't change the fact that I am an amazing wrestler... The absolute best and I won't tell anyone else any different. I came for a fight and I will do everything in my power to show why I am that dominant wrestler. It's not just me either. Seleana is an amazing wrestler as well!

Seleana: Ja, she finally see what we see. She sees the spark in her eye that always says this is going to be an interesting wonder to behold. Tonight will be no different.

Crystal: Now I will be the one to say that your match is super important because whoever wins your match will have to face me in the future. I will win that gauntlet match and I will be a survivor. I know it would be weird for us to fight each other but honestly it's more so the fact that if for some reason to fail to beat Andrea. Let it be known I got your back. I will deal with her and every single way that she mocked this family, our relationship, and what we do in our personal lives..... Girls please cover your ears.

Both girls put hands over their ears as she speaks some more.

Crystal: I am going to fuck her up. The only thing I want right now is to get a piece of Andrea. I thought I had shut the bitch up after I made her scream I Quit but she rather go about not mentioning. She wants to bring up you mentioning me. I WILL make her mention me and asx long as she is on this check list she will always be on my radar until I cross her out.

Seleana: She is mine first and I am keen to take my pound of flesh!

Crystal: You better get yours. If you do get past her, and I win as well. I guess it's you and I at Into The Void... The Zdunichs will steal the show. Anyway to make all of that happen we both need to win so let's go for it ja?!

Seleana nods.

Seleana: Ja!

Crystal: Anyway best of luck and go get em tiger!

Crystal slaps Seleana hard on the butt as she makes a cat noise but that's when Aurora shakes her head.

Aurora: Not a tiger... She's the black cat! Just like her theme song!

Everybody is giggling as we go elsewhere.

Blaze of Glory cuts backstage to Morganna who is beaming with pride as she sits down on a stool in front of a green screen. She's got an evil smirk on her face as she holds the dress that she stripped off of her own sister Cordelila Clark earlier in the night on the pre-show. She is showing no remorse whatsoever as she begins to express her thoughts.

Morganna: Needless to say, I REALLY enjoyed what happened earlier. You think you're too good to face me, Cordy. You think you could insult me by scheduling a photoshoot on the same day that you were to face me. You were always someone that wanted to overlook me more than anyone else on this roster. Well, this is the chance that I have been waiting for... for a LONG time! I FINALLY get the chance to prove that I always was the better sister! Yeah, I ripped off your dress, I dumped rotten milk on you, I humiliated the hell out of you and yet, I don't give a crap about what you think. I don't give a crap about the fact that I stripped you of your pride. You think I honestly came here with the intention to wrestle you? I'll let you in on a secret. I had planned to wrestle you if I HAD TO, but if there was something that I would be able to do to ensure that I would chase you out of this building, out of this company, out of this business, then by god I was going to do it. I HOPE you do the smart thing, Cordy. I HOPE you decide to leave this business right here and now. I did what I did to you earlier for your own good. Of course, you're always going to be too stupid to see that. You're too used to acting like you're the victim...

Morganna takes a pause as she looks at Cordelia's dress that she took off of her. She definitely feels some disgust. Suddenly, Morganna feels like there is some type of sneeze coming on and she quickly directs the sneeze into Cordelia's dress showing no remorse nor care whatsoever.

Morganna: All I ever hear about you is that you're this big, huge star... that you're going to be a star in this business for a long, LONG time. It made me sick. The star should've been ME!

Morganna slides off the stool and walks by a garbage can, tossing Cordelia's dress inside of it. She bolts from the scene and the scene fades to black.

Denis Leary's "Im An Asshole" plays and the crowd boos as the rotund and hyperactive "know-it-all" of professional wrestling, the Troll, runs onto the stage as fast as he can (which altogether isn't that fast). He has an annoying, excited look on his face as he pumps his arms, greeted by the boos of the fans.

Justin: From Parts Unknown, weighing 252 pounds - the Troll!

The Troll points into the ring, taking offense at the "lies" about his grandiose weight being made public. He then "jogs'' down to the ring, holding his hands out for high-fives but receives none. He struggles up onto the ring apron and climbs through the ropes, catching his shoe on the middle rope and face plants in the ring, much to the laughter of the crowd. The Troll then gets to his feet and pumps his arms again until he is herded back to his corner.

Adams: So here we go, Sin City Wrestling's very first Angel on a Pole match...

Simone: The closest thing to a handicap match without being a handicap match, you can guarantee Despayre is going to be cheered on by Angel throughout.

Adams: Too bad I can't speak stuffed bear!

The pulsating beat of Orgy's "Opticon" begins to sound over the public address system of the arena. The fans turn their attention to the stage atop the entry ramp and their wait is soon rewarded. Accompanied by Synn, Despayre steps out onto the stage, with Synn at his side and they are greeted enthusiastically with cheers.

Justin: Accompanied to the ring by Synn, and watched on by Angel, from the top of the pole! From Vancouver, British Columbia, weighing 168 pounds -- Despayre!

Despayre holds a photo of his teddy bear pal up for the fans, and is rewarded with cheers and chants of "Angel!" "Angel!", and the "trio" begin their descent towards the ring.

Adams: Jasmine St. John out here officiating tonight.

Simone: The head referee holds just enough seniority to make Despy listen to her. Sometimes.

DING DING DING!

Despayre walks forward to the center of the ring, offering a 'may-the-best-man-win' handshake to The Troll who unleashes a FIST ACROSS THE CHOPS to Despy...which sends the whole Galen Center into a hushed silence...

Adams: I think that punch had so little venom on it Despy's neck snapped forward to face it, as if he wanted to actually feel something. Sounds like me in my last relationship...

Simone: Troll must have been binge-watching Cobra Kai from his Mom's basement these past few weeks, making use of that strike first strike hard mentality to prepare for this match.

Adams: Guess he forgot about the hard part...

Troll having surprised himself, is shaking his hand muttering 'ow...ow...ow...' out loud as one of the only professional wrestlers in history unable to throw a punch in anger, jumps in the air in even more surprise to find Despy standing there, watching him, and not passed out in a stupor on the ground from that 'vicious' shot.

His eyes grow wide as he turns tail and runs, Despayre hot on his heels as the pair head for the outside, running around and around in circles around the ring a couple of times.

Adams: Why does he run so...weird?

Simone: It's like the Phoebe from Friends mixed with a Naruto run...

Adams: He is hauling ass though, Despy's needing to maintain a light jog to keep on his tail.

Getting tired of this game of rope-a-dope, quite literally, the sweat starting to pour from the face of Troll he figures he needs to end this now, sliding...getting stuck...rolling...getting stuck...MAKING IT BACK INTO THE RING and heads straight for the pole, jumping up onto it at a run and sliding straight to the bottom.

As Despayre doesn't seem to feel at any danger, he makes his way slowly and casually into the ring, watching Troll go for the pole again, his clammy hands unable to get any kind of purchase...which he punches in frustration, making him shake his other hand in excruciating pain, Despy coming over to investigate the situation.

Adams: Troll now explaining to his opponent that the pole has been greased.

Simone: The only thing greased here is what The Troll had for breakfast in catering. Steak and eggs. Twice.

Adams: Despy seeming to want to try this himself now...

As Despy takes a firm grip of the pole, Troll seems so confident that his opponent won't be able to climb he goes to take a load-off against the ropes, forgetting that the ropes bounce, flinging himself onto the floor as his opponent hoists himself up, koala-clinging to the pole and shimmying himself up, much to The Troll's disgust at how easy it's turning out to be.

Climbing up from the mat...eventually...Troll grabs the shirt of Despy and hauls back, putting his weight into it until he rips the much smaller man clean off the pole. Seemingly unhappy at being interrupted, but willing to make friends regardless, Despy holds up a peace sign to Troll...flattens it out...then delivers a DEVASTATING EYE POKE before turning back to climb again.

Simone: Anything's legal in an Angel on a Pole match!

Adams: Jasmine's right in there to waggle a finger of her own though, warning Despy that eye pokes aren't nice...

Paying little attention and seemingly done with playing games, Despayre heads back to the pole and begins to climb, almost unnoticed considering the blood-curdling screams coming from his opponent, who has taken to running around in circles screaming "I'M BLIND, I CAN'T SEE! I'M BLIIIIIIIIIIND! I WANT MY MOM! I WANT MY MOOOOOOOOM..." until he runs full-tilt into the pole, the force of the blow shaking Despy loose and sending him careering outside of the ring, colliding hard with the barricade at ground level.

Adams: Despy's not moving...

Simone: Falling from heights like that are going to knock the air out of your lungs at the very least. If the Troll can figure out his eyes still work...

Adams: And after giving them a good rub, it seems like he has!

Finally coming around and getting his bearings, Gabriel glances around, trying to figure out where his opponent was hiding, peering over the sides of the ring until he sees the stricken Despy bent up against the barricade, still trying to get his bearings.

A CHANCE!!

Running for the pole like he was running for the pizza delivery guy, The Troll starts to climb, and DAMN MANAGEMENT for greasing the damn pole with Anti-Troll paint but he was a man on a mission and while the huffing and panting could be heard from the cheap seats he was making his way. Halfway. Still going, never giv-

*Rattle rattle rattle*

Simone: Surely not...

*Rattle rattle rattle*

Head snapping to the sound, Troll drops himself off the pole, stalking for the outside, attracted to the packet being shaken by Despayre on the outside.

Adams: I'm sorry...is Despy shaking a bag of cat treats? Our referees need to start checking pockets...

Simone: When Mom punishes you with no meals for a week, you have to get creative - Gaming sessions are nothing without snacks, Krystal Wolfe can attest.

Adams: Are you a gamer, Belinda?

Simone: No.

Adams: Well okay. Good chat.

Grabbing the packet with both hands and ripping away at it, The Troll sends cat treats scattering down to the floor, following them down to ground level and starting to chow down. Chuckling sadistically, Despy didn't seem to expect it to go that well as he makes his way back into the ring, exchanges a sideways glance with the referee as he pushes his fingers into his mouth, whistling loudly.

With The Troll's attention diverted back to the ring, an amused Despy lays himself down flat in the center of the ring.

ANOTHER CHANCE.

Springing himself back under the bottom rope...kind of...with a struggle...The Troll takes his opportunity to go for a BIG PINFALL.

Simone: That...is not going to work...

The Troll looks expectantly at Jasmine, who looks back, bemused. The Troll smacks the mat as if expecting the referee to count, only to be pointed towards the pole again. The Troll, upset he isn't getting his own way, begins to bang his feet against the mat.

Adams: Looks like Jasmine is going to humor our resident man-child and starts the count.

ONE!

With one big push, Despayre finds himself able to reverse the pin easily...but the much larger Troll is a kind of human barrel when he gets moving and the momentum just results in reversal after reversal after reversal af-

ONE!

ONE!

ONE!

ON-

O-

Adams: I'm not sure who's regretting this decision more now, Despayre, for starting this freight train rolling...or Jasmine, for this arm workout she's just earned herself

Simone: This won't be doing either man any favors - After all that rolling around, their balance is certainly going to be affected for a while, and equilibrium is one thing you need when you're trying to shimmy a pole.

Adams: *Snickers*

Simone: What's funny?

Adams: Shimmy...a pole...

Simone: You're such a child.

Adams: Aaaaaaaand that yelp of pain you heard is the referee, who seems to be suffering from a bout of cramp after all that ring-slapping action.

Now writhing in agony, Despy slips himself out of the pinning predicament, leaving The Troll to continue rolling around and around and around on his own on the floor, bouncing over to the aid of his favorite referee, offering to help stretch out that arm of hers and fight off the cramp.

Noticing something had changed...no counting...no opponent...

A THIRD CHANCE!

Pushing himself up from the mat, Troll stumbles and stumbles and stumbles around, definitely feeling the effects of his little tumble, staggering and face planting the pole for a second time before clinging onto it for dear life for a moment. The cogs clearly turning and his balance slowly returning, he eyes the turnbuckle, figuring it might be better to use that, rather than trying and failing to go up the pole.

Meanwhile, Despy is busy trying to force-feed a banana and water to Jasmine St. John, figuring that the sudden onset of cramp was due to dehydration, a potassium shortage, or both, although his eyes are drawn to bear-snatcher extraordinaire, who has made his way up to the second turnbuckle, grimy fingers reaching up to make a play for Angel but in the end all it earns him is a BIG DROPKICK TO THE BACK OF THE KNEE.

The blow from the dropkick was just enough to send The Troll, arms windmilling trying to keep his balance, to fall backwards and get stuck, bent 90 degrees backwards over the turnbuckle, contorted around the pole, legs still trapped in the second rope, and if he wasn't already screaming in agony from being bent backwards, the effect was ten-fold as Despy starts to use him as a human ladder!

As if seeing it coming, The Troll tries to frantically wave Despy off who seems to be weighing up his options, retrieve his precious Angel with his opponent incapacitated, or show Angel's kidnapper what a mistake he made...fluffy bear...or revenge...wave his arms in victory, or destroy the waving basement dwell-

Bouncing off the top rope, Despy unleashes a devastating DOUBLE FOOT STOMP to The Troll, bending him all the way over and finally freeing his feet from the tangle of ropes as the pair tumble to the outside.

Adams: OH MY GOD!!

Simone: That has to be defying science....

Adams: Gabriel Thomas Wank has been flattened and folded, people!

Simone: I think that maneuver is going to give Despayre all the time he needs to retrieve his bear too, EMTs saw that coming are on stand-by just in case...

Adams: Bending back at that angle is rough for even...you know...the real athletes on the roster...

Simone: The Troll isn't going to be able to walk away under his own power I don't think...

Adams: Hey Belinda...do you remember when people got those folding phones and peeled off the coating thinking it was a protective cover and then snapped their expensive new folding phone?

Simone: ...no...

Adams: That. Definitely that.

Taking the hint, the medical staff already start to make their way down to ringside. At the very least, we can see The Troll is moving, but barely, and we'll no doubt be 'graced' with his presence on a Climax Control coming soon, but in the meantime there was still a match to win.

ANGEL! ANGEL! ANGEL! ANGEL!

DING DING DING!

Justin: Here is your winner.... Despayre!

As Despayre gives his missing bear a big squeeze, he holds Angel aloft to drink in the adoration of the crowd as Jasmine St. John raises his arm in victory...then on instruction from Despy...raises Angel's arm in victory as the crowd goes wild!

Adams: DESPY WINS! DESPY WINS! DESPY WINS!

Simone: You're screaming that in my ear like you were surprised...

Adams: But I'm excited about the m-

Simone: Our headsets have microphones! You don't need to shout!

Blaze of Glory cuts to the locker room where the SCW Bombshells Internet Champion Andrea Hernandez is standing by already dressed to compete and with her championship slung over her shoulder. She does not, in any way whatsoever, look worried. Nothing but confidence is flowing through her as she begins to express her thoughts about her upcoming title defense.

Andrea: Seleana Zdunich... always easily offended. You've always had that temper tantrum that is both funny and sad at the same time to observe. Your wife is even adding her name to the fray as if she actually matters in the big picture right now, but at the moment? I would say she doesn't. This is ALL between you and me. I don't need Mercedes to go on Twitter and plug stats for me to know that I AM better than you, always HAVE been better than you and always WILL be better than you and tonight is going to be yet ANOTHER example of that whether you like it or not. You're coming into this match tonight having already been defeated. Period! You're still stuck on that whole 'pawn' thing, you're still stuck on false accusations that you just won't let go of. I don't know why you continue to present this false narrative that I was just using you as a pawn to get to someone else and that I've always done that in every single match we've ever had against each other even though I only ever did that ONCE... but... you know... whatever helps you sleep at night...

Andrea takes a pause and gives off a shrug, showing how little, if at all, she even gives a damn about Seleana's feelings.

Andrea: Whatever you want to tell yourself to desperately grab at relevancy again? I mean sheesh,you've got to be one of the easiest Bombshells on the roster to piss off and you're probably the easiest Bombshell on the roster to... you know...

It's telling that you want to MEAN SOMETHING to me so bad considering how MAD you are that you supposedly "mean nothing" to me. Though, as I've stated before, you once DID mean something to me. I was in the stands on the night you won the world title, risking the possibility of getting fired from OCW had they found out that I was at another company's wrestling show while I was under contract. Yeah, I risked my contract with another company to see YOU win the world title because you DID mean something to me at that time. You DID provide the blueprint of what it takes to go from underdog to champion. You made me want to do the same damn thing someday. Not only did I come to SCW and DO that... I did it better. I mean, at least I got past the first defense and at least I got past the two week mark which is more than what I can say for you.

But hey, keep living your lies. Keep creating these falsehoods so that you can feel better about yourself over the fact that you ARE a failure to the family that matters the most especially the girl that you and Crystal adopted a while back. No wonder you have never been considered one of the top Bombshells in the company: because you just don't have IT to be one. Sure, you were a world champion once and everything, but from day one, all you have ever done is get in your own way. You have already lost this match to me before we've even made our entrances because you're not FOCUSED on what matters. You're NOT focused on my championship. All you are focused on is your own HURT FEELINGS that I caused and all you are focused on is creating these horribly bullshit narratives about me, my title reign, my career, the history that we have and all of that. You're focused on the wrong things when some of these wrong things aren't even TRUE... at ALL!

You've never beaten me inside of that ring because you see me and you know that I'm your kryptonite. You see me and you know that I am the one Bombshell that you will NEVER figure out. Every time I face you and win against you, you grow angrier and more bitter toward me. Well tonight? When I defeat you and send you right back to the back of the line where you should've stayed this entire time, I'll give you something to be bitter about. I used to hope that you would come around someday, but I don't think you ever will. Seleana, the most you can hope for is some kind of moral victory because the way I've gone for the last sixteen months? I WILL be defeating you again. I WILL remain Internet Champion and I WILL extend my personal winning streak to 19 in a row! Maybe you WILL learn something for once...

Andrea scoffs and roll her eyes.

Andrea: Nah... you won't. It's not like you ever learned anything from the other times I've beaten you.

Andrea shrugs and has a laugh to herself. She turns and exits the scene. The boos are incredibly loud and clear and she's not giving a crap about any of them as the scene fades out.

---

Simone: It's time for our second title match of the night! Seleana Zdunich earned a shot at the Bombshell Internet Title at Inception V but since then she's fallen into a slump, can she turn it around and dethrone Andrea? We will find out right now!

Adams: We saw a preview of this match on the last Climax Control where Seleana teamed up with Crystal Zdunich to take on Andrea and Evie Jordan! Evie picked up the win for her team after she and Andrea hit Seleana with their finishers and Andrea pinned Seleana after the match to send a message to her challenger, one must wonder how those mind-games are affecting Seleana heading into this match!

Simone: One way to find out! Let's take it to Justin!

Justin: The following contest is scheduled for one fall and it is for the SCW Bombshell Internet Championship!

"Waking the Demon" by Bullet for my Valentine hits the venue's soundwaves. Andrea appears on the stage to some strong boos from the crowd.

Justin: Introducing first, from Sedona, Arizona she is the reigning and defending SCW Bombshell Internet Champion Andrea Hernandez!

Andrea scoffs at the crowd and doesn't pay them any attention at all otherwise as she is completely focused on the task at hand. She gets up to the ring apron and uses the top rope to slingshot herself into it, ignoring the crowd even further as she leans against the corner, confidently waiting for what comes next.

Simone: Andrea has been on a winning streak for over a year now, and we're talking about before the reign started.

Adams: She has turned away three challengers so far, Keira Fisher and Alicia Lukas in her first defence and Jessie Salco in her second defence, will Seleana be her fourth and final challenger?

Justin: Introducing the challenger!

The arena fades to black as the screen lights up and we are treated to an old school movie countdown image.

Suddenly the countdown is stopped by claws slashing through the image and a cat's roar sounds through the arena. Janet Jackson's "Black Cat" blasts through the speakers and Seleana Zdunich walks through the entranceway and makes her way to the ring, slapping hands along the way as the crowd cheers her on.

Justin: From Halmstad, Sweden, Seleana Zdunich!

Simone: As we said before, Seleana's luck took a serious downturn after she earned this shot at Inception V!

Adams: You can say that again, she hasn't won a single match in the two months that have passed since that match!

Jacob makes sure to go over the rules with champion and challenger before he takes the title from Andrea and holds it above his head for the crowd to see, however as he is handing the Bombshell Internet Title over to a stage hand Andrea tries to get the upper hand on Seleana by charging at her for a clothesline attempt! Seleana for her part sees it coming and ducks under the clothesline before spinning Andrea around and firing rights and lefts at her face prompting Jacob to call for the bell.

DING DING DING!

Simone: Andrea tried to get the advantage early on via a cheapshot but Seleana saw it coming!

Adams: We're barely a minute into the match and Seleana has Andrea on the backfoot!

Once the surprise wears off Andrea starts fighting back and a brawl ensues between the champion and her challenger with the fans eating it up by doing duelling "let's go Andrea" and "let's go Seleana" chants! Jacob resolves to let the two women go at it for a while rather than try to regain the control over the match that he never had but eventually Andrea uses cheap tactics to get the advantage by raking Seleana's eyes stunning the Swedish Bombshell long enough for Andrea to hit her challenger with a Sitout Facebuster!

Simone: Andrea is back in the Driver's Seat after that Sitout Facebuster and raking Seleana's eyes.

Adams: Say what you will about Andrea's tactics, they are effective and she's going for a pin on Seleana!

ONE!

TWO!

And Seleana gets the shoulder up! Andrea shakes her head before she grabs Seleana by her blonde hair and drags the Swedish Bombshell back to her feet before doing a hair assisted hip toss! Jacob admonishes Andrea for pulling Seleana's hair but the champion ignores him before she picks up Seleana again and tries for the same move, this time however Seleana blocks it before delivering a knee to Andrea's midsection to break her drip on Seleana's hair and backs her up to the ropes where she whips Andrea off, Seleana nails Andrea with a standing dropkick to the face but Andrea rolls to the outside of the ring before Seleana can press the advantage.

Simone: Andrea's on the backfoot again but I don't think retreating to the outside will do anything to slow down Seleana's momentum!

Adams: Seleana demonstrated in that tag match that she isn't afraid to take to the skies and Andrea had better remember that!

The commentator's prediction comes true as Seleana goes over to the ring ropes and waits for Andrea to turn around before hitting her with a Springboard Hurricanrana to the outside! Jacob restarts his count and it doesn't even reach five before Seleana picks up Andrea and rolls her back into the ring but rather than follow Andrea in Seleana instead heads to the top rope before executing a 450 Splash to perfection! Seleana goes for her first pin of the match!

ONE!

TWO!

And Andrea gets the shoulder up! Seleana shakes her head before she heads back to the top rope and this time she waits for Andrea to get back to her feet.

Simone: Seleana has another big high flying move planned!

Adams: She had better watch herself up there, Andrea isn't exactly a pleasant person to put it mildly but she's just as comfortable on the top rope as Seleana is!

Jason's prediction ends up coming true as Andrea knocks Seleana loopy with a punch to the Swedish Bombshell's jaw before Andrea joins her challenger on the top rope and nails her with a beautiful top rope Hurricanrana! The impact on the matt causes Seleana to sit up briefly before she plops back down and Andrea goes for a quick pin but Jacob is out of position and thus is unable to get to the pin-fall quickly.

ONE!

TWO!

And Seleana kicks out!

Simone: I wonder if Jacob's hesitation there cost Andrea her third defence?

Adams: Maybe but it could also be Seleana's resiliency.

Andrea clearly thinks that Belinda has a point as she argues with Jacob over how slow he was to get into position for the pin-fall! Jacob for his part argues that he did his job as the ref to make sure Seleana's shoulders where down so Andrea chooses to change up her tactics by locking in a Single Leg Boston Crab on Seleana! This time Jacob is quick to get into position and ask Seleana if she wants to tap out for the Swedish Bombshell refuses.

Simone: After her argument with Jacob Andrea is showing the rarely seen technical side of her offence with that Single Leg Boston Crab!

Adams: It's a classic submission hold but sometimes you can't beat the classics, real question is, can Seleana break the hold?

Seleana wastes little time in crawling her way over to the ring ropes to break the hold but as soon as she close enough to potentially break Andrea's hold the champion pulls her challenger back to the centre of the ring and changes up her submission, this time going for a Heel Hook! Seleana still refuses to tap out to the hold and manages to make her way back to the ring ropes and break the hold! Andrea holds onto the submission hold for the four count to ensure that the damage is done before finally letting go and it's clear that Andrea thinks that she has the match in the bag as she watches Seleana favour her leg! Andrea picks up Seleana but the challenger surprises her with a roll up.

ONE!

TWO!

And Andrea BARELY kicks out in time!

Simone: Andrea's cockiness almost cost her the Bombshell Internet Title!

Adams: Something I bet the rest of the Bombshell Locker Room would've never let her live down after everything she's said about Seleana!

Seleana is still favouring the leg that Andrea targeted earlier in the match so Andrea is the first one to get back to her feet following Seleana's failed pin-attempt but Seleana is able to will herself into charging at Andrea and hitting Andrea with a series of clotheslines letting out a primal scream on the last one as the fans get behind Seleana clearly thinking that she could win the match! Seleana goes for a fifth clothesline but it becomes clear that Andrea had the same idea, possibly to try to halt Seleana's momentum, and both women go down.

Simone: Champion and challenger both had the same idea and now both Andrea and Seleana are down!

Adams: Whoever gets up first will have a huge advantage!

Jacob's count reaches nine before Seleana gets back to her feet and she calls out for her finisher, the Katoga! She measures up Andrea as the champion gets back to her feet before she goes for the move but her leg buckles when Seleana tries to leap up the Asai DDT! Seeing the opportunity to end the match Andrea hits Seleana with a dropkick to her bad leg before dragging Seleana over to the corner and heading to the top rope!

Simone: Seleana's in trouble after her leg buckled whilst she tries to hit the Katoga!

Adams: And if Andrea is going for her Rise of the Phoenix then this is over!

Andrea indeed hits the Rise of the Phoenix on Seleana but makes sure to land on Seleana's bad leg rather than her body! Seleana is clearly in a lot of pain from that leg but Andrea doesn't go for the pin, instead locking in the Heel Hook on her bad leg again!

Simone: Oh, come on! Andrea already had Seleana beat with the Rise of the Phoenix, there's no need for that Heel Hook!

Adams: I don't think Seleana's getting out of it this time! Stick a fork in Seleana, she's done!

Jacob gets into position to ask Seleana if she wants to tap but this time, it's clear that Seleana can't continue the match and she has no choice but to tap out!

DING DING DING!

Justin: Here is your winner by submission AND STILL SCW BOMBSHELL INTRERNET CHAMPION! ANDREA HERNANDEZ!

Simone: Andrea retains in her third defence but I wonder who challenger number four will be?

Adams: I bet it'll be whoever wins the Bombshell gauntlet later in the show!

Andrea refuses to let go of the hold at first but eventually relents before celebrating her win whilst Jacob checks on Seleana.

Cordelia Clark finds herself in the locker room all alone. She's definitely feeling not just alone, but humiliated. She's dressed in her wrestling gear at this point and after the humiliation that she went through earlier, she's got so much going through her head. She knows that the camera is on her but unlike before when she was having some fun with the photoshoot, she'd rather the camera not be on her. She's definitely feeling miserable as she begins to express her thoughts.

Cordelia: What the hell do you want me to say? I was only doing something fun and then I got humiliated in front of the whole world on the preshow. Morganna went WAY too far, to say the least. I don't know. I don't want to make this sound like a pity party. Having to pick myself up and somehow make my way to the locker room without anyone seeing me, then having to shower to get all of that rotten milk out of my head, then having like the worst cry you could ever imagine while it was in the shower... it was all just way too much for me. And now? I'm hearing that my sister wants me to give up and quit. She wants me to not just leave SCU, but she also wants me to leave this business. She wants me to give up on my dream. And you know, normally, I'd just want to get up and fight her so I can shut her up and really just be DONE with this as far as SCU is concerned, but then after everything that she has done to me, I think tonight is the last straw. I think tonight is the night that maybe I should just give up and stop fighting. As much as I don't want to leave the professional wrestling business, maybe it's the only way that our sisterhood could ever be repaired. Maybe if I give her what she wants, all the pain she's put me through will go away...

In a perfect world, you'd think that leaving the business would solve everything and yet, I know that it won't. In my heart, I know that if I were to give my sister what she wanted, if I were to leave this business, then I'd be doing it for NOTHING. How can I know that? Because I know that if Morgan gets one victory over me in any capacity, then she is going to want even MORE from me. She's going to want to run up that score. Leaving this business is never going to be enough for her. She's basically going to torture me until I die. Or... she's really making it seem that way. The only thing that leaving this business is going to guarantee is that my career would be over.

That's why...

I'm NOT GOING TO GIVE IN TO YOUR DEMANDS, MORGAN!!!!

The crowd cheers as Cordelia develops an angry glare on her face and a fierce determination in her eyes.

Cordelia: POWER! That is ALL that you want over me! POWER! You want to control me because you're so insecure with your pathetic little pity party. I know that I have that power over you because at the end of the day, you're the one that talked about how embarrassed and humiliated you were that I went into this business and succeeded so much faster than you did. I wasn't shocked to hear you say the things that you said because you've always been jealous of me. I've long accepted that fact! You're angry because while I've become one of the most accomplished wrestlers in SCU in near record time and even gone on to break TWO title length records, you haven't amounted to MUCH in your career. You've never won a singles championship. The one championship that you've had, it was with ME when we were tag team champions together. You've got to accept reality here, Morgan. You're doing all of this to me because you know you're not at my level. This desperate cry for attention at every turn is something that I would never imagine my big sister would ever stoop to. You want to call me 'selfish' for thinking that I am better than you but here's the thing. I don't think I'm better than you. I KNOW I am better than you. I've NEVER been the one that has needed to stoop to the levels of outright bullshit that you have stooped to. I'm finishing this here in SCU Morgan... and I am doing this my way. You may have humiliated me and made me cry in the shower, but the sadness and the humiliation is gone. All I've got left in me is ANGER... an ANGER that you should've NEVER unlocked in me. It's like you forget what happened the last time you brought anger out of me. Well... when I put you in your place and when I get to move on to bigger and better things here in SCU... not only will you REMEMBER the anger you've brought out of me, but you will REGRET IT TOO!

BUBBLES is about to go POWERPUFF GIRLS on your ass... BITCH!

Cordelia storms out of the room incredibly determined to silence her sister once and for all in Sin City Underground as the scene fades to black.

---

Darlyn: The following contest is scheduled for one fall!!!

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

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

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

Darlyn: Next, from Brooklyn, NY, standing at 5'4" and weighing in at 120lb, she is... Morganna!!!

"Dub on the Track" hits the speakers as Morganna appears on the stage drawing a negative reaction from the audience. She ignores the fans and heads down to the ring with a serious, determined look on her face. Once she heads inside the ring, she delivers a "talk to the hand" gesture toward all the fans that are booing her quite loudly. She heads to her corner and scoffs at all the boos she's getting. The song fades as she waits for the match to begin.

Aron: Ben! Good to see you!

Aron turns his phone off from the video he was watching and tucks it into his pocket, standing up to greet Ben with a friendly handshake.

Aron: Haven't really had much of a chance to talk since your return. What are you up to... besides getting ready for another win?

Aron teases with good nature, a tease Ben takes in amused stride, shrugging his shoulders with an innocent smirk.

Ben: Actually I was just looking for that grumpy old git of a brother of yours. I just laid eyes on the fella he's going to fight tonight and check to make sure his medical insurance policy was paid up. Not sure I want to lug his big ass backstage like I did last time around.

Aron smiles, knowing full well that Ben was just teasing. The Cockney King knew Fenris almost as well as anybody and had a lot of confidence in his friend and his ability to succeed even when matched up against men bigger than him - like JC certainly was. And despite his jest, Ben is always the first one there to lend a hand - just like he did at Into the Void XI.

Aron: Actually, that's why I was sitting here. Making sure nobody disturbed the 'grumpy git' as you call him.

Aron turns and grasps the door handle to the room they stand in front of and opens it quietly. Ben peeks inside and there in a darkened room lays Fenris on a bench, sound asleep with his hands curled up on his midsection. Ben then steps back as Aron closes the door, Ben with a slight frown of curiosity.

Ben: Was he... asleep?

Aron nods.

Ben: Isn't that usually... you know. Frowned upon?

Aron: Usually. But K's had the same pre-fight routine since his earliest MMA days. He eats very little. A nap. Then a cold shower and reading while listening to music.

Ben nods, taking this bit of information in and filing it away for later inside the ol' noggin. It was always of interest to learn something new about a friend and their habits.

Aron: And this is only his second match against someone from an MMA background since Jake Raab so he's taking it seriously.

Aron then shrugs.

Aron: And I think we all know my brother is a creature of habit.

Ben: Yes...

Ben pats Aron on the shoulder.

Ben: That is exactly the word I was going to use to describe him.

Fenris: (from behind the closed door) Like 'grumpy old git'!?

Ben and Aron turn startled glances toward the closed door.

The scene opens backstage where we see Jessie Salco getting ready for an interview with Ms. Rocky Mountains ahead of her match against Masque.

Ms. Rocky Mountains: Jessie, tonight you have unenviable task of taking on Masque! In the short time Masque has been a part of the SCW roster she has run roughshod over the Bombshell Division with her only loss being in the Blast from the Past Tournament, what sets you apart from the other Bombshells who have faced Masque?

Jessie: Experience.

Ms. Rocky Mountains: What do you mean?

Jessie: Doesn't it speak for itself? Kaiju Rainbow is a veteran but in her short time in SCW she hasn't shown much for it and she hasn't been seen since Ms. Jon had an imprint of her in the ring a few weeks ago, Adrienne Beaufort is a rookie with only four matches to her name and I'm not even sure if I should count Kat Jones since she faced Masque in the Blast from the Past Tournament rather than a one on one match and it was Bill Barnhart who took the pin in that match! Not only have I been around a lot longer than Adrienne but I have more to show for my wrestling career than Kaiju and I'll reserve judgment on Kat until she faces Masque in singles action.

Ms. Rocky Mountains: And you think that'll be enough?

Jessie: I know it'll be enough! You see, I'm not denying that Masque is a tough cookie and that counts even after you take away her mystique and terrifying presence but with just under a decade of experience in an SCW ring and over a decade of wrestling experience in general, I feel like I've seen and done most things in this business, Masque hasn't faced a competitor like me in SCW and that will be her downfall as we head into this match!

Jessie says before she steps forward.

Jessie: I described myself as the final girl to Masque's slasher villain and tonight I will prove that to be true when I strike her down like blood lightning! Anything else Rocky?

Ms. Rocky Mountains: No.

Jessie: Good, I've got a match to win if you excuse me!

Jessie walks off as the scene fades.

Justin: The following Bombshells contest is scheduled for one fall...

The arena is plunged into darkness. A single spotlight illuminates the entranceway, as the choral refrain asks, "Will the Circle be Unbroken?" Stepping into the brightness, Masque drops to her knees and with a head tipped upwards, stares into the rafters - arms held outwards. After a few seconds she brings her gloved palms together in an apparent moment of prayer.

Climbing back to her feet, Masque interlocks her fingers and makes her languid way down the ramp, hands pressed together against her chest. Periodically, she stops in front of a gesticulating, whooping member of the audience and offers them her hand. Some shrink back, others grasp it with theirs. All quieten as she turns her eyes on them.

Pausing at the ring steps, she drops to one knee and touches a hand from her heart onto the metalwork, running fingers against scuffed steel. Once she climbs onto the apron Masque raises a long leg up, hovers it just above the top rope and rolls through; using momentum to spin her entire body over and inside in a single fluid twirl. She lands sitting on the mat, hands clasped together again and looking up at the lights.

Justin: Introducing first.... MASQUE DE LUNE!

Adams: We've got some bombshells action coming up next and here's Masque... the mysterious, scary, Masque...who thus far has run roughshod throughout the Bombshells division...

Simone: Poor Adrienne Beaufort didn't stand much of a chance against her, that's for sure...

The arena cuts to black as the slow guitar intro of "Blood Lightning" by Lutharo is heard over the PA System, right as the song launches into the opening guitar solo the lights start to flash across the arena before a single spotlight shines on Jessie headbanging to the song.

Justin: From Miami, Florida, please welcome Jessie Salco!

Jessie posses at the top of the ramp just as the clean vocals of Krista is heard over the PA before she makes her way down the ramp, Jessie rolls into the ring and poses for the crowd again as the song fades.

Adams: Jessie Salco is, of course, way more experienced then Adrienne, but I don't think that matters very much to Masque...

Simone: Considering their relations, you wonder if Jessie is going to seek revenge for Adrienne in some way, shape or form. I wouldn't be surprised if Masque sees Jessie as the main course after Adrienne was the appetizer...

DING DING DING!

Jessie makes a beeline right for Masque, but Masque simply knocks her down with a headbutt. Jessie falls down to the mat while Masque just smirks. Masque bends down to grab Jessie by the hair and then pull her back up. She holds her by the hair and she fires off a couple of more headbutts before she leaps and nails Jessie with a standing hurricanrana. Jessie stumbles and falls down near the ropes. She slowly gets back up and then Masque comes running at her with a lariat. Jessie goes down again and Masque laughs as she is seemingly toying with her. Jessie is able to get to her knees, but that's as far as she gets as Masque comes back and DDT's her! Masque covers...

ONE!

TWO!

KICKOUT!

Masque remains confident as she pulls Jessie up by the hair again. Jessie is able to counter with a desperate jawbreaker that leaves Masque in a seated position. Jessie stands up, then runs up to Masque and nails her with a running dropkick. Masque is down on the mat, then Jessie pounces on her and fires some punches to the face to keep her down. Masque is able to push her off, but when she gets up, Jessie grabs her from behind and throws her shoulder first into the ringpost. Masque stumbles backward out of the corner. Jessie then turns her around, nails her right in the gut and then she manages to plant her with a swinging neckbreaker. Jessie turns her over and pins her for the cover...

ONE!

TWO!

KICKOUT!

Adams: It's still early, but so far, Jessie is not showing any sort of intimidation or fear of Masque whatsoever...

Simone: She is making a valiant effort so far, I will give her that. But, she's going to need more than a swinging neckbreaker to pull a stunner on Masque...

Jessie has the presence of mind to turn Masque over and apply a Boston Crab. Masque grits her teeth as she struggles for a bit. She manages to drag herself up to the bottom rope and she grabs it. Jessie lets go and she quickly climbs to the top rope. Masque uses the ropes to get back to a vertical base. Jessie leaps off and she manages to take her down with a diving crossbody. Jessie kips up and she's starting to get fired up. Masque gets up and then Jessie runs up to her and nails her right in the gut. She drags her to the ropes and then she is able to take her down by leaping off the ropes and nailing her with a springboard bulldog. Jessie turns Masque over for the cover...

ONE!

TWO!

KICKOUT!

Jessie sits up, a bit surprised. She climbs back to the top rope and she immediately goes for a moonsault. However, Masque is able to roll out of the way and Jessie hits nothing but mat. Masque recovers. When Jessie gets to her hands and knees, Masque is able to run at her and nail her with a running knee to the side of the head. Jessie goes down and Masque is a little bit less amused. She drags her up and places her on the corner. Masque steps back and delivers a spear to the gut. Jessie stumbles out of the corner and Masque nails her with a leaping high knee right in the jaw. Jessie goes down and Masque pounces on her for the pin...

ONE!

TWO!

KICKOUT!

Adams: Just when you think Jessie might build some momentum, Masque comes right back to take it away.

Simone: I don't think Jessie... or any Bombshell in the division up to this point, knows how to take out Masque just yet... or to even throw her off her game.

Masque doesn't react to this as she gets back up. She steps through the ropes as Jessie stands up. Jessie gets up and turns around then Masque goes for a springboard forearm. However, Jessie fucks underneath it. Masque lands on her feet, but when she turns around, she turns right into a leaping enziguri from Jessie. Masque goes down and then Jessie pounces on her and locks in a sleeper hold. Masque struggles to breathe for a bit, but she begins to elbow her way out of the hold. Still, Jessie is able to drag her up. She nails her with a knee to the gut to double her over then follows up with a snapmare. Jessie turns Masque over and goes for the cover...

ONE!

TWO!

KICKOUT!

Jessie is starting to seem a bit flustered as she stands up. She waits for Masque to do the same. Once Masque stands up, Jessie goes for a lariat, but Masque ends up countering into an arm drag. Jessie hits the mat hard and grabs her arm. She winces in pain as she stands up but Masque comes back and nails her with a running bicycle kick. Jessie goes down, but Jessie grabs her and drags her back up to a vertical base. She picks her up and then nails her with a snap suplex giving her the chance to regain her breath. Masque steps through the ropes and springboards off the top, nailing Jessie with a springboard cross body. Masque stays on her for the cover.

ONE!

TWO!

KICKOUT!

Adams: Moves like that are exactly what make Masque so unpredictable...

Simone: Jessie is definitely in trouble now. Masque has the clear advantage and you just wonder when Masque is going to think about finishing her off.

Masque smirks with amusement as she pounces on Jessie Salco and she begins to strangle her. The referee gets in there to put a stop to it. Masque stops choking Jessie and then she grabs her and drags her up again. She picks her up and nails her with a scoop slam near the center of the ring to keep her grounded. Masque gets back to a vertical base. She begins to kick Jessie repeatedly. Jessie gets to her knees and then Masque comes back and nails her with a shining wizard that nails her right in the side of the head. Masque drags Jessie back to the center of the ring. She drops down and hooks the leg for the cover...

ONE!

TWO!

KICKOUT!

Masque doesn't seem to be bothered by this as she stands up again. She waits for Jessie to get up and when Jessie does just that, Masque goes for a spinning back elbow. Jessie ducks it. Masque spins back around to Jessie who kicks her in the gut and then takes her out with a sitout facebuster. Masque is laid out and then Jessie takes some time to recover as she gets back to a vertical base. Jessie drags Masque back up and then grabs her and nails her with a vertical suplex. Masque is looking distressed as she sits up and turns over. Jessie is waiting for her so she can grab her and nail her with a Northern Lights suplex right into a cover...

ONE!

TWO!

KICKOUT!

Adams: Jessie has certainly hung in there better than most would expect. She's really giving it the best fight that she can give.

Simone: Jessie's really got to dig deep if she wants to pull what many would consider a stunner. When you're in this situation as she is, you want to finish her as soon as possible.

Following the kickout, Jessie applies a cobra clutch. Masque struggles for a bit as she tries to elbow her way out of the hold. Jessie doesn't quite let her do that as she drags her back up with the hold still applied. Jessie leaps and nails Masque with a double knee backbreaker, causing her further discomfort. Jessie goes to the top rope at this point and then she waits for Masque to get back up. Masque does just that and then Jessie leaps off the top rope and nails her with a senton to take her back down. Jessie isn't done yet. Masque gets back to her knees and Jessie nails her with a superkick square in the jaw. Masque goes down and then Jessie drops down and hooks the leg for the cover...

ONE!

TWO!

KICKOUT!

Jessie looks a bit stunned by the kickout, but nevertheless, she gathers herself as she heads back to the top rope. Jessie goes for the Wall of Death. However, Masque is able to block the 450 Splash. Jessie rolls away and holds her ribs in pain. Masque sits up and she is laughing at Jessie's misery. Jessie is able to get to her knees, but Masque comes right back at her with a running knee right to the throat. Jessie goes down, rolls away and starts to gasp for air. Masque grabs her from behind and drags her back up. She lets her go, then steps back and nails her hard in the throat with the Terrorfex! The leaping spinning heel kick to the throat knocks the wind out of Jessie as Masque pounces on her for the cover...

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

DING DING DING!

Justin: Here is your winner, MASQUE DE LUNE!

Masque sits up following the three count and she merely rolls out of the ring after that, more or less satisfied in the win she just got...

Adams: Masque wins again! Jessie wanted to go for the finish, but in the end, she took far too much of a risk and Masque took advantage of that.

Simone: Is there anyone on this roster that can stop this woman?

Backstage in the rec area of the Galen Center, where the SCW and SCU stars and staff alike were afforded a brief break during the show and between matches, "the White Wolf" Fenris is seen seated not on one of the many chairs or two sofas, but on the floor itself. His hair is slicked back from a fresh, cool shower, and he is cross-legged and eyes on the book in his lap, buds in his ears as he listens to a pre-fight playlist on Spotify...

The camera switches backstage, where Ben Jordan stands ready for his match. He turns his head towards the camera and starts to speak.

Ben: Alright people.

A half smile creeps on to his face.

Ben: It's no secret that I ain't been the guy you're used to, I ain't been overly bright and bubbly as always, in fact, this is the first time you've seen me in a bit under two weeks and I ain't gonna lie, I haven't felt like myself. I know it's in people's head that what you're gonna see in that ring ain't gonna be the old Ben Jordan. I mean this alone is very different, no questions, no one around me, but here I am about to put your mind at rest.

Ben holds up a finger.

Ben: I made it very clear I need to get back to who I was, do what I used to do to become the man I was. You know what the old Ben did a lot? He used to win a lot.

A serious look crosses Ben's face.

Ben: Tonight, that happens again, tonight, Lincoln Daniels gets to meet the old Ben Jordan, he gets to meet the fella that is gonna leave it all in that ring. Am I taking this match lightly? Nah, I don't take anyone lightly, it doesn't matter who I'm in the ring with and tonight, it's no different. This is a rebirth so to speak, this is where Ben Jordan starts to rise again, this is where Ben Jordan starts walking down that road to greatness again. This is where I get back to the old me, cheers for being part of that Lincoln.

Ben looks to the side, before quickly looking back at the camera.

Ben: I'll see you all in a few.

Ben winks at the camera.

Ben: Laters people.

Ben walks off camera towards the entrance ramp as the camera cuts to the arena.

Jasmine St John is in the ring watching up the ramp as Justin brings the microphone to his lips for the introductions.

Justin: The following contest is scheduled for one fall...Introducing first...

A video package starts playing on the screen as "Go Hard" suddenly blasts through the sound system. Blue and green lights start to float around the arena as Lincoln Daniels steps through the curtain with his wife Zania right by his side. Lincoln takes one look at the audience before holding his arms out wide. A small set of pyro goes off behind him as they slowly make their way down the ramp.

Justin: Making his way down the aisle, being accompanied to the ring by Zania Daniels, from Valdosta, Georgia, he stands six feet two inches tall. He weighs two hundred forty one pounds. He is "Mr. Incredible" Lincoln Daniels

Lincoln gets half way down the ramp before leaving his wife's side and sliding into the ring. He stands on the far turnbuckle while holding his arms out wide while mouthing out towards the audience.

Adams: Lincoln Daniels is ready for what is to come. Well, it is going to be one heck of a challenge in my mind. Let's go back to Justin for that intro.

Justin: And his opponent...

Simone: Here we go...the challenge that might just be too much for Lincoln.

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 two hundred twenty 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.

Simone: The fans of Sin City Wrestling love to see the Cockney King. And tonight he is facing Lincoln Daniels in a fairly even match up.

Adams: And there is the bell. This match is underway.

DING DING DING!

Lincoln moves to the middle of the ring where he is checked by Jasmine St John while watching as Ben Jordan moves close. Jasmine motions for both to begin the match. The two begin to circle before locking up in a collar and elbow lock up that neither man can take advantage of. Lincoln manages to shift Jordan enough to roll the collar and elbow into a headlock. Ben pushes Lincoln off and into the ropes where he rebounds then takes Ben off his feet with a clothesline that sends him to the mat. Lincoln stops for only a moment before he charges towards the opposite ropes to rebound again. Ben throws himself to the mat forcing Daniels to leap over him. Rebounding off the ropes again, Lincoln is taken to the mat with a gutwrench suplex from Ben. Daniels rolls towards the ropes and pulls himself to his feet. Ben follows him in but is surprised with an exploder clothesline that takes Jordan to the mat himself. Lincoln moves to pick him up then spins him around. Catching him by the midsection in an attempted german suplex, Lincoln pulls him up while Ben reaches out for the ropes to prevent himself from being suplexed. Lincoln tries to pry him free but Jordan puts a foot over the bottom rope as well forcing Jasmine to tell Lincoln to release the hold. Reluctantly, Daniels lets go of Ben and backs away to the center of the ring with his hands held up proving he had released the hold.

Adams: Wow, what a start to the match. Both men had and lost the advantage. We need to restart this contest Belinda.

Once more the two circle in the middle of the ring. Ben lunges towards Lincoln who avoids the hold by ducking under it then turning quickly, grabs Ben around the midsection and german suplexes him to the mat. Releasing his midsection, Lincoln rolls to his hands and knees as Ben clutches at the back of his head. Lincoln gets to his feet and smirks to the crowd and then turns to pick up Jordan who has made it to his hands and knees. Grabbing him by the neck, Daniels stands up Ben and then surprises him with a drop kick that sends Ben stumbling backwards into the corner. Kipping to his feet, Daniels rushes in and clotheslines Ben. Jordan takes the hit and slumps into the corner. Jasmine moves in and forces Daniels to allow Ben to get to his feet. Jordan straightens up as Daniels is talking to St John. Jordan uses the slight distraction to climb onto the middle rope then balances on the top rope to fly off with a missile dropkick that sends Daniels through the ropes to the floor. Ben Jordan kips to his feet and moves to the ropes. He looks down at the man slowly working his way to his feet. As he rises, Ben grabs the top rope then slingshots himself over the top rope and lands on Daniels to send both men down to the floor. Daniels is clutching his head as Ben gets to his feet and slides into the ring.

Simone: Ben managing to use some high flying to take the advantage after Lincoln had the ability to control the match at the start of the match. But Ben better be on his toes, Lincoln isn't someone to underestimate.

Inside the ring, Ben gets to his feet again and moves to the ropes as Daniels gets to his feet. Grabbing the top rope, Ben looks like he is going to sling shot himself again which has Lincoln scrambling away. Jordan doesn't leap as Lincoln moves around the ringsteps. Jordan follows him inside the ring. Lincoln sees him coming and then reaches in quickly to grab the feet of Ben and pulls him to the mat. Jordan is helpless as Daniels pulls him towards the ringpost. Jasmine is warning Daniels as Ben tries to fight off the hold. Daniels slams the knee of Ben against the ringpost giving him some time to roll into the ring and break the count. Ben clutches his knee as Daniels drops and then grabs the leg and still in the ring, he bends it around the steel to punish Jordan. Jasmine warns him again and begins his five count. At four, Lincoln releases the hold and Ben pulls himself away from the ringpost and fights his way to his feet. Gingerly he tries putting weight on the leg that had been wrapped around the steel. Lincoln moves towards him as he limps towards the corner. Daniels moves closer and then reaches for the leg that Ben is trying to protect. Unable to grab it, he uses a haymaker to send Jordan to the mat. Grabbing Ben, Daniels pulls him up and then catches the leg to use it in a delayed fisherman's suplex that has Ben' shoulders to the mat. Jasmine drops to make the count but Jordan kicks out with a scream of pain. Lincoln slams his hands on the mat as he gets to his knees then rises up as Ben rolls towards the outside. Daniels reaches for him over the ropes as Ben tries to straighten up on the ring apron.

Adams: Lincoln Daniels as taken the wheel out from under Ben Jordan.

Simone: And escaping to the apron might not have been a smart move for Jordan.

Grabbing the back of the neck of Daniels, Jordan drops to the floor and hangs Lincoln on the top rope. Daniels is shot backwards clutching at his throat as he fights to breath. Ben gets to his feet and then rolls under the bottom rope before pulling himself upwards and trying to shake the pain from his leg. Leaning into the corner, he pulls himself upward and then sits on the top turnbuckle as Lincoln who has recovered and moves towards him. Ben leaps off the middle rope with a lou thesz press on Daniels which takes him to the mat. Ben rolls through the move then to his feet. Turning to watch Lincoln roll to his stomach then hands and knees, Ben levels a kick to the midsection of Daniels which sends him to the mat once more clutching his midsection. Ben kips up and staggers as weight is put on his leg. Clutching it, he moves towards the corner once more to climb to the top turnbuckle to launch himself at Daniels with a flying elbow that Jordan drives into the chest of Lincoln before trying to roll him up into a pin attempt that Daniels kicks out of at two.

Simone: Lincoln is still fighting Jason. What is Ben Jordan going to need to do for the win?

Ben Jordan makes it to his feet as Lincoln rolls to his stomach. Rising slowly, Lincoln motions for Jordan to bring it while still clutching at his chest. Ben looks around then charges at Lincoln who attempts a dropkick on Jordan but Ben is able to bat the attempt away. Reaching down, Ben pulls Lincoln to his feet then whips him chest first into the corner. Slamming hard into the turnbuckles, Lincoln staggers out into a reverse frankensteiner from Ben who takes Daniels to the mat. Ben kips up and then stands over the prone Lincoln Daniels. Reaching down, Ben pulls him to his feet then between the legs. Catching up his arms, Ben pulls him upwards to land on his shoulder. With Daniels still stunned, Jordan looks around then hits his that hadta hurt lungblower powerbomb move on Lincoln which drives him hard to the canvas. Rolling towards Lincoln who is laid out on the mat, Jordan reaches for the leg and rolls him up for the pin. Jasmine drops to the mat to make the count on the prone Daniels.

Simone: Ben Jordan hits his finisher and from the looks of it, Lincoln Daniels is finished.

ONE!

Adams: Ben Jordan is not going to let this match end without the win.

TWO!

Adams: Lincoln Daniels is beginning to struggle to escape the pin but Jordan is has him down for the pin and he is going nowhere.

Simone: Jasmine is about to count the finish now so I think that Lincoln will just miss out this time.

THREE!

Adams: And there it is...the pin that got the three.

DING DING DING!

Justin: The winner of the match, Ben Jordan!

Jordan rolls away from Daniels and gets to his feet to have his arm raised in victory. Jasmine holds up his hand in victory then checks on the Lincoln Daniels who has rolled to the ropes where he is met by his wife and helped from the ring.

Adams: What a win by Ben Jordan Lincoln Daniels put up a really good fight but it wasn't enough to beat the Cockney King tonight.

Simone: Ben Jordan continuing to celebrate his win.

Jordan climbs the turnbuckles to celebrate as begins to play as Ben moves across the ring to climb the opposite corner to hold his arms up in victory once more.

The cameras cut to the backstage area near the dressing room of Mac Bane as he is exiting the locker room. He's dressed in his ring gear with the world title on his left shoulder and a stepstool in his right hand.

Mac Bane: There you are Kat.

She looks like she may dart, but Mac shakes his head indicating she should not. He sets up the step stool. He then embraces her in a hug.

Mac Bane: I know you think I'm angry, but I'm not. What I need to know is if you are okay?

She nods with a rather sheepish look on her face, Mac then gibsmacks her in the back of the head.

Kat Jones: Hey! That hurt!

Mac Bane: That's for scaring ten years of my life out of me that I can't afford.

Kat Jones: I did no such thing!!

Kat put her fists in her side and glared up at him. Must have been quite the sight to see the tiny Kat compared to Mac.

Kat Jones: I can travel by myself just fine thank you very much.

Mac amused by the show of aggression, goes completely smart ass

Mac Bane: Can ya? Can ya really?

Kat Jones: What the.. I have been traveling by myself for years! What the hell are you talking about?

Mac stops a moment and notices a slight raise on the skin of her face that she's tried to hide with makeup

Mac Bane: So, why did Cyrus headbutt you again?

Kat shrugs and tilts her head

Kat Jones: He headbutts me all the time. It is kinda our thing.. He has a lump on his forehead too. He did not like something he saw. I guess.. Didn't ask..

Mac shakes his head

Mac Bane: my money is on, you scared him, but you deserved that smack upside the head and you know it.

Kat Jones: Unfounded but appreciated nonetheless.

The shot returns to ringside

Blaze of Glory cuts to the locker room where Myra Rivers is standing by. She's looking at a television monitor and she's watching last year's Blaze of Glory event where she is watching herself verbally go to town on Ruby Steele. A part of her does show SOME regret that she allowed herself to get to that point, but her eyes tell a different story. Once what she watches wraps, she shuts off the television and has a few thoughts go through her head. When she turns toward the camera, she begins to express them.

Myra: A lesson learned from failure...

Myra pauses and delivers a scoff at this, all but shrugging off the notion.

Myra: Not when you're repeating personal history it's not. I've gotten this far because I HAVE learned from my mistakes and failures to become a stronger, better person and wrestler. I could yell at you both, snap at you, tell you both "fuck you, you're wrong" and go on the same rant I made last year... but nope. I HAVE learned my lesson. I just showed it. In my heart, I know that regardless of what you two have to say, Max and I GOT THIS.

Myra delivers a confident wink to the camera before she turns and heads out of the scene. She's showing absolutely no signs of anger or nervousness at all as the scene fades out.

Justin: The following contest is the Bombshell Gauntlet Match!! The match starts with two Bombshells that randomly drew number one and two, every 90 seconds another Bombshell will come to the ring until all six have entered!! The way to be eliminated is that you have to throw your opponent over the top rope and that Bombshell has to touch the floor. Except for the final two wrestlers, they have to fight each other until you pin or make your opponent submit. The sole survivor is the one that will get a championship opportunity of her choosing!!

The crowd cheers loudly

Justin: Now lets turn to the Bombshell that drew number one!!!

"Release me"

The two words from the Public Address system in the arena cause the fans in attendance, already on their feet, to react with disdain and unappreciative shouts. Kat Jones,, badass Cincinnati native of ill repute methodically makes her way to the top of the ramp from the gorilla position. Her black shorts and knee high boots are more characterizing of her facial expression and attitude toward the scathing crowd, than her highly decorative top full of self expression.

Kat walks toward the ring, methodically and without much concern at all, regarding the insults and jeers thrown in her direction.

Justin: "Making her way to the ring, hailing from Cincinnati, Ohio, standing five feet, eight inches tall and weighing in at one hundred twenty eight pounds, she is the "WildKat"... KAT JJOONNEESS!!!"

Standing before the ring apron, Kat removes her black leather jacket, whips it behind her, releasing it and allowing it to sail toward the ramp, ultimately letting out a bloodcurdling scream, before she enters the ring and awaits Levana Cade's arrival

Justin: And her opponent...

A short but punchy electric guitar rift hits the speakers before the pounding of drums slams through the PA system. Stealing the fans attention, driving their eyes towards the stage. The familiar notes of "Paranoia" by A Day to Remember continues to barrel through the speakers at a deafening level, meanwhile the lighting that looms over the ramp way starts to flicker ghostly whites in time with the music. Stepping out from behind the curtains, Levana Cade makes her way towards the middle of the stage before she comes to a stop. She looks out towards the fans, as the cameras pan in on her blue eyes, her glare is as cold as ice as she surveys the crowd. Reaching up she flicks the collar of her oversized leather jacket before she makes her way towards the ring.

Justin: Making her way to the ring from Las Vegas, Nevada... Levana Caaaaaaddeee.

Levana makes it to the ring, disregarding the fans' outstretched hands along the way. Approaching the steps slowly... painfully... slowly she walks up them before both her feet hit the ring apron. Walking around two sides of the six-sided ring, Levana takes her time before stepping over the middle rope. Once inside the ring Levana removes her leather jacket before carefully handing it to Justin. Rocking the back of her shoulders against the ropes, Levana waits for the match to begin, her eyes never leaving her opponent. As the lights and speaker system return to normal.

DING DING DING!

Both Kat and Levana circle each other, waiting for the right moment to strike as neither Bombshell want to extract too much energy in hope to reach the final two at the end of the match. Kat tries to get the upper hand by locking hands with Levana, but she pushes her into the ropes and drives knees into the midsection of Kat. She then pushes Kat into the turnbuckles where she delivers several chops to the chest of Kat before setting her up for an Irish Whip. Only to have Kat reverse it and deliver a short arm clothesline that sends Levana down to the canvas. Kat grabs her by the hair and bashes her head into the canvas before executing several elbows to the chest area. She then grabs Levana by the arm and drags her towards the corner as she puts one of Levana's over the top rope in an attempt to get her over the top rope. She gets an elbow to the head as that causes her to stagger backwards in the middle of the ring as Levana grabs her by the head and is about to toss her over the top rope. But Kat manages to grab hold of the ropes and lands on the apron before driving her shoulder into the midsection of Levana as she followed up on her.

The bell rings as Chloe's music hits, we see Kat step back in the ring and drops Levana with a Snap Suplex as Chloe charges towards the ring

Simone: Here comes Chloe!!!

Chloe slides underneath he ring and charges towards Kat who is close to the ropes, Kat sees her coming and executes a Back Body Drop over the top rope as Chloe lands on the outside of the ring

Justin: Chloe Benton is the first to be eliminated!!!

Adams: And there goes Chloe!!!

Kat chuckles as we see a replay of the short arrival and elimination of Chloe while she is heading to the back. Kat turns around and walks straight into a kick in the midsection before Levana hoists her up in the air in a Body Slam stand while walking towards the ropes. There Levana tries to toss Kat over the top rope. But Kat manages to slip out of her grip and lands behind Levana. There she pushes her to the ropes and manages to get her over the top rope partially. Levana has got one leg still in the ring as the other is teetering over the top rope. Kat tries to use all of her strength to toss her over the top rope as the crowd reacts mixed towards the two Bombshells. Levana finally manages to get back in the ring as she had the ropes tight in her grip. She headbutts Kat as that causes her to stagger backwards before Levana grabs her by the head and spins her around before whipping her over the top rope

Simone: Kat is in danger!!!!

But Kat manages to grab hold of the ropes, causing her to land on the ring apron barely as Levana tries to push her to the outside as the clock starts to use the ten count again

The bell goes off and we see the Bella Madison run to the ring, she slides in the ring as we see Kat holding on to Levana by the hair as she is now halfway over the top rope. Bella grabs the leg of Levana that is in the air as she tosses Levana over the top rope with some assistance from Kat.

Justin: Levana Cade has been eliminated!!!

Levana is angry, looking back at Kat and Bella before being forced to the back by Drew Patton and Jacob Summers. Kat rolls back into the rign where Bella grabs her by the arm and pulls her up to her feet. There she lifts one of Kats legs up and tries to push her upper body underneath that of Kat in an attempt to toss her out of the ring. Kat is holdinrg on to the ropes for leverage before she manages to position herself in a position that she slides off the back of Bella back onto the canvas as she maintains a grip on the waist of Bella and rolls her through on the canvas. Bella as being the bit more fresher Bombshell manages to get to her feet and executes a dropkick to the jaw of Kat as that forces her head to snap down hard on the canvas

Adams: Nice counter from Bella, but having someone down on the canvas is not a smart strategy. It makes it more difficult to get them OVER the top rope

Simone: You are absolutely right Jason, the final two bombshells have to beat the other with pinfall or submission.

Bella grabs the legs of Kat as she drags her closer towards the ropes, there she executes a catapult that sends Kat towards the ropes. Only to have Kat somehow manage to grab the top rope and manuevre herself on the apron before rolling back in the ring

Adams: How is she doing this??

Bella gets up and moves towards her as she grabs her by the arm, lifting Kat up to her feet before setting her up for an Irish Whip. Kat comes off the ropes and manages to sidestep a dropkick attempt that surely would have send her over the top ropes, only to drop Bella hard on the canvas because of this. Kat starts to drive series of knees into the midsection of Bella, trying to make it more difficult for her to breathe before grabbing her by the head and lifts her up to her feet. There she whips Bella over the top rope as it is now Bella that holds on to the ropes for leverage. Kat charges in on her and the impact of the blow sends bella to the outside as Kat anticipates another elimination.

Simone: How did she do it??!!!

The camera's see Bella luckily landing on the announce table that does not break. The crowd cheers as they are fully behind Bella as Kat turns around and sees what just happened. Irate she has not been able to eliminate Bella she stands at the nearest side of the ropes in anticipation for Bella's next move. Bella slowly starts to stir as she is in clear pain, feeling that she is not laying on the concrete floor makes her realize that she still has not been eliminated before slowly getting to her feet. Finally when she is on her feet she turns around, causing her to look face to face with Kat who gestures her to come in the ring somehow with a smile.

Simone: I think Bella's biggest opportunity to get back in the ring when someone else enters the match!!!

Bella looks around, looking over the options for her to somehow get back to at least one of the steel ring steps in order for her to get back in the ring before seeing the waiting gaze of Kat. Bella asks for one of the comfortable leather chairs of the colour commentators before asking for Jason to give his to her

Adams: Only if I get it back!!!

Simone: Seriously???

Bella thanks him, gets on the chair and then pushes her leg against the table to push herself towards the ring post and steel steps.

Simone: How inventive!!!

Adams: Yeah, but now she has to get past Kat!!!

Bella is at the bottom of the steps as she stares up towards Kat, who stares down at her. Waiting for Bella to make the next move when we hear another ten count

And the bell goes off again and this time it is Mercedes Vargas that enters the arena, unlike previous competitors she takes her time to get to the ring. staring at Kat inside the ring, who now is dividinjg her attention to both women before finally deciding to turn her attention towards the woman that is the newest. Daring Mercedes to get into the ring while giving Bella the opportunity to get back in the ring. She gets besides Kat, grabs her arm and spins her around. Both Bombshells stare at each other as Kat points at Mercedes who is at ringside, causing both women to then suddenly look towards Mercedes as the crowd erupts.

Simone: These type of matches brings some of the unlikely alliances to get another person eliminated!!

Both women gesture Mercedes to get in the ring, causing her to slowly do so staring at them hesitantly. Mercedes is on the ring apron and sets one foot through the ropes as Kat gestures to Bella to get to Mercedes as Bella anticipates. She grabs Mercedes by the head and is about to pull her inside the ring when suddenly from behind Bella we see Kat charge in

Simone: There goes the alliance!!

Kat grabs Bella Madison from behind and lifts her over Mercedes Vargas and more importantly the top rope as she had grabbed her by the leg. Bella falls to the outside as Kat is moving to a corner to catch a breath while waving to Bella.

Adams: Smart move from Kat, luring in one of her opponents to believe that they have an alliance and then strike.

Justin: Next to be eliminated is Bella Madison!!

Mercedes has now gotten in the ring and smiles towards Kat, applauding her for the cunning move. But then tells her that she is going to be the one that eliminates her next. Kat ndos her head and gestures Mercedes to bring it as the highly decorated veteran chuckles and shakes her head no.

Simone: You have to do better to lure Mercedes into a trap that she probably already has used in her long career.

Adams: Indeed, I bet she has written down every trick in the book!!!

The two ladies circle each other as Mercedes is taunting Kat who isn't answering the taunts willingly. Neither woman want to be the final wrestler to be tossed over the top rope before the final two. Kat is breathing heavily as Mercedes smiles knowing that she has a huge edge over conditioning. She slowly moves towards Kat, who is getting to a corner to prepare to strike the veteran. Who just waits and shakes her head, not wanting to step into the obvious trap from Kat.

Simone: I think Mercedes is waiting for the final entrant!!

Adams: It may be a smart move, but then again I would be making sure that you don't have to focus on two opponents instead of one!!

Kat has the same idea as she slowly moves over towards Mercedes, who circles her. The two can't take their eyes of the other as the excitement is being felt. Mercedes and Kat move into each other at the same time as both women lock arms. Mercedes is clearly stronger as Kat was there since the beginning. Pushing her into the ropes before whipping Kat in the ropes and hits a running dropkick as Kat comes off the ropes. This sends her to the ropes where she is balancing herself to make sure she isn't accidently go over the top rope. This gives Mercedes the opportunity that she was seeking, charging in on Kat and pushes her body underneath hat of Kat in an attempt to push her over the top rope. Kat wraps her arms and across the ropes in an attempt to maintain balanced and making it nearly impossible for Mercedes to throw her out of the ring to the outside. Mercedes takes a few steps back before moving towards Kat again and places a boot against the midsection. Kat is struggling to hold on as Mercedes once again puts her upper body underneath that of Kat and once again uses all of her strength in an attempt to push her out of the ring. Kat leans over and rolls over the back of Mercedes back in the ring as she had raked across the face of Mercedes. Kat slowly gets to her feet before taking advantage of the partially blinded Mercedes as she throws her over the top rope to the outside.

Justin: Next to be eliminated is Mercedes Vargas..... we are now at the final two!! The next to pin or make her opponent submit wins!!

Kat slowly gets up and stares at the entrance ramp, awaiting the last entrant as Crystal Zdunich has already gotten in the ring and executes ad dropkick that sends Kat into the ropes. Crystal grabs her by the arm and whips her to the opposite side of the ring as she sets Kat up for a Hurricanrana. But Kat steps into it and goes for a small package lick variant pin attempt as Jacob Summers slides in the ring for the pin attempt

ONE!

TWO!

But Crystal manages to kick out as Kat is getting more and more exhausted, lasting all the way to the final two as Cyrstal is very fresh. Both get up to their feet at the same time, Kat goes for a clothesline but Crystal ducks it and hits a swinging neck breaker before going for a standing Senton

ONE!

TWO!

THRE...

But Kat kicks out, barely getting her shoulder off the canvas in time as Crystal grabs her by the arm and sets her up for a Body Slam, but Kat uses her height and weight advantage to her momentum and reverses the move to one of her own. Kat goes for the slam, but Crystal holds on to Kat's arm and executes an Armdrag that sends Kat down to the canvas and hits the ring post awkwardly with her ribs. Causing her to grab the painful body part that she had hurt weeks ago. Crystal drags her to the middle of the ring before jumping the top turnbuckle and executes

Adams: Rose Prism Power!!!

Crystal hits the 630 Senton Splash on top of Kat before covering her and hooking the legs for the three count

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

DING DING DING!

Justin: The winner by pinfall and sole survivor!! Crystal Zdunich!!!

Crystal gets her hand raised by Jacob summers as the crowd cheers for her, but also applauds Kat as she has gone all the way and had come close to get the win over Crystal in the end

Simone: Kat has got nothing to be ashamed off, she had come close but Crystal in the end had the edge as she was not as fatigued as Kat!!

Again we are backstage and this time in the closed off area of the Galen Center, away from the media and wardrobe sectors and closer to the medical bay. No, this time we are where the stars can get in one last pre-match workout before their respective matches. As we move in closer, we can hear the tell-tale sound of something being struck hard and quickly.

That something being revealed to be "the White Wolf" Fenris at the boxing bag hanging from the rafters, with his brother Aron standing behind the bag, holding it secure for his brother to be able to land solid shots in against the weighted training bag. Fenris throws rapid fire MMA shots, lefts and rights with his hands enveloped in his favorite pair of MMA gloves. The blows come hard and strike fast, each one knocking Aron back a step.

Fenris then switches out and jumps, landing a high knee strike to the bag that literally almost sends Aron sprawling back and landing on his backside, but the younger brother of the SCW Superstar manages to remain upright. Fenris looks out from behind the bag in an obvious show of concern.

Fenris: Are you okay?

Aron nods, then moves to resume his spot when Fenris's boyfriend David Shepherd steps in. David rests a hand on Aron's shoulder and with a nod from Aron, David takes his place. David braces himself and holds the bag, allowing his man to resume his pre-match ritual...

The cameras cut backstage near the dressing room of Mac Bane, he and Mikah have been discussing strategy as the camera's approach.

Mac Bane: First and foremost, we paid for this time to be after the usual Myra content that puts the audience to sleep, so we hope this helps.

He looks over at Mikah and winks, getting a barely stifled giggle in return.

Mac Bane: Funny thing about social media is that Max and Myra have been so supremely confident. They've obviously come up with a plan, thing is, everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth.

Mikah just rolls her eyes at the thought.

Mikah: Apparently, using what a person posts on Twitter is more important than what they can do in the ring. Or at least, according to Myra, anyways.

She just shrugs her shoulders.

Mikah: Green is not a good color on her. And a plan? I don't think she has a plan unless it is to focus on the fact that I lost my Bombshell Championship to Danielle Weston in 2018. But I'm not sure how that helps her in the long run.

She just smirks at the camera.

Mac Bane: The desperate will do whatever it takes to try to get an edge, even if it's an imagined one. That won't help them tonight.

Mikah: I do not think that anything can help either of them tonight. We were always the favorite to win this tournament, even if nobody wants to openly admit it.

Mikah smirks at the camera.

Mikah: Failure was never an option for either of us. However, it is the only option for the two of them; after all, Myra's the best at failing.

Mac barks a laugh at the statement.

Mac Bane: For some people, that's all they have to cling to, in wrestling and in life.

Justin: The following contest is scheduled for one fall!!!

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

Justin: Making his way toward the ring! Accompanied by Aron Baltasarsson, from Iceland, weighing two hundred and four pounds -- Fenris!

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

Justin: And his opponent...

The lights suddenly drop, and in the silence, Ghost's "Hunter's Moon" to play with its haunting melody. The music builds and lights flash, leading up to the chorus, signaling an arrival.

'The Bogeyman' JC steps out onto the stage, staring out at the audience and wearing a Michael Myers mask over his had, having embraced his new ghoulish persona. He watches the crowd react to him and then begins walking steadily to the ring. He enters the ring and climbs up to the middle rope, before ripping the mask off of his head and staring out at the audience. He then returns to the ring and prepares for his match.

Justin: Standing in at 6'5 and weighing in at 255 pounds!! Hailing from East Rutherford, New Jersey!! JC!!!

DING DING DING!

The two men walk straight up towards each other and engage in an tight grip to get a momentum on each other as JC gets the upper hand on Fenris as he pushes him into the ropes and starts to pound him with forearm shots across the chest area before whipping him out of the ropes and knees him in the midsection. That forces Fenris to bend forwards as that causes JC to grab him by the neck and executes a swinging neck breaker in the middle of the ring before going for the cover

ONE!

TWO!

Fenris manages to get a shoulder off the canvas as JC grabs him by the head as he delivers forearm shots to the face of Fenris who covers his face up with his arms before JC grabs him by the throat and starts to choke him

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

FOUR!

JC lets go before grabbing Fenris by the head and drags him to the corner and pushes him into the turnbuckles, JC sets Fenris up for series of back elbows to the head of Fenris, but Fenris manages to move out of the way as JC moves into the turnbuckles. Fenris grabs JC by the waist from behind and corks his hips and executes a German released Suplex from out of the corner and rolls through as he gets on top of JC and locks JC in a headlock while sitting on top of his chest, trying to cut off the oxygen to the brain of the big man as JC tries to push Fenris off of him who gets to his feet before delivering Muay Thai kicks to the midsection of JC before pushing him in the ropes before setting him up for an Irish Whip, only to be knocked down by a running clothesline from JC as he comes off the ropes.

Adams: These two are truly bringing the heavy artillery against each other.

Simone: Neither men are going to give in on the other, these two have the same mentality.

JC grabs Fenris by the hair and bashes the back of his head hard in the canvas, causing Jacob Summers to warn him to stop it before starting to use the five count

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

FOU...

Fenris lifts his legs underneath the armpits of JC and uses his impressive leg strength to push JC back first onto the canvas before grabbing the legs of JC as he gets to his feet and wraps one leg underneath the other and sets JC up for a Texas Cloverleaf and sits down deep as Jacob Summers drops down to JC to check in on him whether he wants to give in.

Simone: Nice counter from Fenris and now the tide has turned!!

JC screams out a negative reaction to the questions of Jacob Summers as he plants his massive hands on the canvas and pushes his upper body off the canvas. He starts to crawl over towards the ropes as Fenris pulls him back to the middle of the ring and sets himself up to sit back down upon JC. Who places his hands back upon the canvas and grabs the left leg of Fenris and starts to push himself into an angle on his shoulder and head area so that he can elbow in the back of Fenris his knee. This causes Fenris to buckle after a few shots as this forces him to let go off the Cloverleaf. Fenris is on his knees as JC gets to his feet and charges towards the ropes behind Fenris and drops him hard with a big knee to the back as this forces Fenris to drop face first onto the canvas.

Adams: Wow, have you ever seen anyone power out of a move like that from Fenris??

JC grabs the head of Fenris and wraps his arms across his legs and locks his hands around the chin of the former world champion into a Camel Clutch submission hold as he sits down deep. We see the spine of Fenris bend in a way that is not healthy for him to bend as Fenris attempts to pry the fingers loose around his chin but fails. JC maintains that hold for a while, but alters it by letting go off the chin after Fenris attempted to pry them loose for the second time. JC grabs both Fenris his arms as he pulls them back before stomping in the lower of his spine as that causes a whiplash type reaction upon him before JC rolls him over and goes for the cover.

ONE!

TWO!

Somehow Fenris manages to kick out, sitting upwards in order to make sure that JC cannot pin him as he has a painful look on his face. JC grabs him by the nose, pulling his head backwards before driving forearm shots to the face. Causing bruise marks to emerge upon the forehead of Fenris as it slowly starts to bleed as a cut emerges above the eyes. JC stops as he hears Jacob Summers nearly reaches the count of five and turns his attention towards the official in an attempt to intimidate him.

Simone: I have not often seen him manhandled like this, but rest assured he won't give in without a fight!!

Adams: And that's something I can see from JC as well

JC stops the forearm shots as he pulls Fenris up for a slam, but Fenris manages to escape his grip and lands behind JC before executing another German Suplex where JC's back hits the turnbuckles as they are too close to the corner. Jacob quickly checks in on both men as the impact of the blow could be harmful for the neck and back of JC as well as the bloodied forehead of Fenris is bleeding heavy. The blood is flowing before the eyes of Fenris as he slowly gets to his feet and turns his attention to the neck area of JC as he locks him in a Dragon Sleeper and locks it in deep as JC attempts to make breathing for Fenris difficult as he manages to place his hand before the mouth and nose of Fenris. But the White Wolf blasts forearm shots to the chest of JC before locking in deeper the Dragon Sleeper as Jacob checks in on JC if he wants to give in to the hold. But the big man manages to grab hold of Fenris his bloodied face and digs his fingers deep into the cut above the eyes of Fenris as that causes him to let go off the grip because of the pain. JC slowly gets to his feet and blasts him in the head with a big time boot but Fenris manages to remains on his knees while being upright. Forcing JC to run to the ropes and comes off the ropes to nail Fenris with another big boot to the face. But Fenris beats him to the punch by exploding to his feet and levelling JC with a running Muay Thai knee into the midsection before grabbing him by the arm and places JC into a Crossface Chickenwin in combination with bodyscissors submission hold. We can see the eyes of JC going wide as he realizes this is a hold that it is very difficult to get out off since the body scissors are locked in deep. He tries to free himself from the crossface chickenwing area, but the grip is too tight as JC is slowly fading while still resisting the pressure.

Simone: Good grief!! I think Fenris may have him!!

Adams: He is fighting it!! But with his hold the more you resist, the tighter it gets!!!

We see the eyes slowly gaze over by JC as the face slowly starts to loose all blood to the brain. Jacob Summers checks in on JC and realizes that he is out of it and calls for the bell

DING DING DING!

Justin: The winner of the match by submission!!! Fenris!!!!

Fenris his music hits as he finally lets go, resting on his hands and knees while trying to catch his breath while blood drips on the canvas. Jacob grabs his arm to raise it in victory before Fenris rolls out of the ring and heads to the back.

The Galen Center's backstage area was a bustle of frenzied activity as was to be expected in all areas from media where wrestlers were granting interviews to be woven into the show at a later date or due to exclusive online footage, right to the stagehands running to and fro, passing along the directives from the bosses of both Sin City Wrestling as well as Sin City Underground. Nerves are wracked and butterflies were flying around in the tummies of both male and female Superstar alike. But away from this direct chaos and out of the frenzy is one figure in particular who is struggling overtime to overcome his nerves. Away from the backstage halls and dressing rooms, and closer to where production is and the rear parking garage and loading dock is Helluva Bottom Carter, who tonight will challenge for the Underground Championship in an Eight Man Warrior's Brawl event.

Carter is sitting on some steps that lead to an upper balcony over the arena itself, his knees drawn up against his chest with his arms wrapped around his legs. His forehead rests down on his knees and he is drawing in one deep breath after another...

Ariana: THERE you are...!

Carter jumps, despite himself, letting go of his legs and looking up as his two closest friends in the sport, Ariana Angelos and Krystal Wolfe, approach him, Ariana carrying a plate in her hand and Krystal a glass of something...

Krystal: We had to go through about a dozen stagehands before we found someone who knew where you went! Why are you all the way back out here?

Ariana: Are you okay?

Carter nods.

HBCarter: I'm fine. Just trying to calm down and get my head on straight. Last time I was in one of these matches, all hell broke loose when that candy ass took the title by doing nothing! After that, my career seemed finished. I couldn't do anything right!

He rests his chin on his knees.

HBCarter: I have to do this tonight. I have to!

Krystal takes a step forward.

Krystal: You WILL! But you're not helping yourself by skipping the pre-show buffet and worrying everyone. When Holly noticed you missing, she started a search party.

Carter chuckles, knowing full well Mz Holly Wood would have sent a pack of huskies to find him if that's what it took - even though she was one of the eight people in this Warrior's Brawl, and one of Carter's opponents!

Ariana: You need to eat something. I know you haven't eaten since this morning at the hotel.

She offered up a plate with a HUGE slab of chocolate cake from the buffet and Krystal is now seen holding a glass of sparkling cider. Carter smiles his genuine appreciation but shakes his head no.

HBCarter: I can't! Right now I am so nervous, if I eat anything I'm going to put the cleaning crew into overtime. I-I just need some time alone girls... to calm down and get my head on straight or else I may as well throw in the towel before the match even happens.

Ariana: Well, we may not like it but we do understand.

Ariana sets the paper plate with the cake on it beside Carter on the steps and wraps her bestie in her arms.

Ariana: For later, m'kay?

Carter grips her, returning the embrace.

HBCarter: Thanks, Ari.

Krystal then sets the glass down for him and grips his shoulder and winks before she and Ariana leave him to his own as he closes his eyes and draws in a deep breath, returning to his previous position.

Darlyn: The following contest is scheduled for one fall and is a No Disqualifications Match!

The lights go down as the whirring sounds begin to rise. The drums kick in and red lights pulse to them. They get louder as the fourth set kicks in and the curtains flip to the side. Angel of Filth comes crawling through them with her black wings fluttering behind her, covered in a black substance.

Darlyn: On her way to the ring, accompanied by masked members Celeste and Orchid... from Las Vegas, NV, she is "The Seraph of Sleaze"... Angel of Filth!!!

Orchid and Celeste follow out behind her. Her eyes glow white as the lights switch between black and red. She glares down at the ring as she rises to her feet, throwing her wings out to the side as they amast. She waves them slowly as she prances down the ramp to the beat of the music, being followed by Celeste and Orchid. She stops half way and looks from side to side. She has a sickening smile on her face as black oozes from her mouth and she laughs. Celeste and Orchid settle in at ringside. Filth enters the ring and climbs up the first of six turnbuckles. She throws her wings out as the fans boo her. She then drops down and goes to the other corner, doing the same. Once at the far end of the ring, she sheds her wings and kicks them to the outside as she rubs her hands together.

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

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

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

Gena: Celeste and Orchid step up onto the apron to get inside, but Merlot bounces off of the ropes, nailing Celeste and sending her to the ground while careening across the ring to knock Orchid off.

Chad: Filth comes up behind Merlot and nails a Belly-to-Back Suplex, rolling through and coming off the ropes with a Dropkick to Merlot's face. Filth throws Merlot's shoulders down to the mat, but Merlot kicks right out.

Gena: Filth begins choking Merlot, causing her to kick her feet around. Filth begins pounding Merlot's head into the mat before Merlot reaches over and grabs Filth's hair and begins punching Filth in the face.

Chad: Filth lets go of Merlot, and Merlot slips from under her. She goes off the ropes and rams her knee into the back of Filth's head. Filth goes down, and Merlot goes off of the ropes again, but this time, Orchid and Celeste trip her up.

Gena: Filth shakes it off and gets back up. She rams several elbows to the side of Merlot's face. She backs her into the corner and then she whips her across the ring with all of her force, and Merlot bounces off and to the mat with force.

Chad: Filth begins stomping on Merlot. As Celeste and Orchid attempt to get inside of the ring, Filth shakes her head and lets them know that she's got this. She stomps a circle around Merlot before lifting her up.

Gena: Filth nails a hard chop to Merlot's chest. However, Merlot fires back immediately with a chop of her own. Filth fires back with three additional chops, and then ducks a Clothesline. She comes off the ropes and does a Lou Thesz Press with mount punches.

Chad: Filth gets off of Merlot to taunt the crowd as they cheer Merlot's name. Filth gives them all the finger as Merlot does a kip-up to get to her feet.

Gena: Filth turns around to see Merlot on her feet. Merlot starts yelling at Filth, but Filth just laughs in her face as she slaps Merlot yet again.

Chad: Merlot charges at Filth and spears her to the mat. Merlot tries to grab Filth's arm but Filth kicks Merlot off of her. The two get back to their feet.

Gena: Filth goes to slap Merlot in the face again but Merlot grabs on to Filth's arm and holds on to it as she uses Filth's own momentum to drop her to the mat.

Chad: Merlot quickly wraps her legs around the arm. She then grabs onto Filth's head for the Vanguard Killer!!! (Lebell Lock)

Gena: Filth screams in pain but doesn't look as if she will tap out!

Chad: She has no choice as she is stuck in the middle of the ring!

Gena: Maybe you're right as Filth gets her hand up, I think she's going to tap... Merlot lets go of the hold. Filth drops her hand.... Merlot locks the hold in again and locks it in tighter! Filth gets her hand up to tap but Merlot lets go again...

Chad: Merlot has this match won and she knows it. She's now playing with Filth. Toying with her for all she has done. But Celeste and Orchid slip inside of the ring and Orchid nails a kick to the back of Merlot's head, causing her to let go.

Gena: They begin to stomp on Merlot and the crowd boos frantically, but also trying to get behind Merlot. She tries to fight back, but Celeste and... Omasa Tazu is running down the rampway to try to even the score!

Chad: Omasa slides inside of the ring and nails Celeste bokken. She swings at Orchid, and Orchid dodges it, grabbing it, but Omasa twists around and nails her in the hip. She then smacks Orchid with the bokken.

Gena: Celeste comes up behind Omasa and nails her with a hard punch to the back of the head, only to receive a smack with the bokken to her kneecap. Omasa turns and hits Celeste, taking her to the ropes.

Chad: Omasa clotheslines her to the outside. She grabs hold of Orchid and sends her to the outside. This gives Filth enough time to shake it all off, and Merlot has started to rise back up. Merlot holds onto her back while Filth charges her.

Gena: Merlot ducks and hits a Back Body Drop. Merlot lifts Filth up and nails rapid alternating knees to Filth's sides. She grabs onto Filth's head and rams it right into her knee. Filth goes down and Merlot goes for the first cover of the match!

ONE!

TWO!

KICKOUT!

Chad: Filth powers out, much to the surprise and dismay of the crowd. Merlot stomps on her a few good times as Filth goes to the corner. Merlot begins stomping away furiously before catching herself. She lifts Filth up and goes for an Irish Whip.

Gena: But Filth reverses it and follows up with a Bell Clap to Merlot. She grabs onto Merlot and plants her with a DDT. Filth hooks the leg!

ONE!

TWO!

KICKOUT!

Gena: Filth lifts Merlot from the mat and sends her into the corner. She quickly follows up with a Body Avalanche before sending her to the opposite corner, repeating herself. She sends her back across the ring and repeats herself once more before letting Merlot fall down.

Chad: Filth kicks Merlot a few times in the side before climbing up top. She's looking to put this one away with the Defibrillator (Coup De Gras), but Merlot rolls out of the way just in time. Filth braces herself and drops an elbow to Merlot's chest instead.

Gena: The outside has finally settled down with Omasa on one side of the ring, and Orchid and Celeste on the other. Filth comes off the ropes, landing a Rolling Thunder onto Merlot. She hooks the leg!

ONE!

KICKOUT!

Chad: She goes to pick Merlot off the mat. She locks in a Wrist Lock that Merlot ducks under and twists into a Wrist Lock of her own. She takes her free arm and puts it around Filth's neck and drops her down into a Crossface Chickenwing, but with a choke!

Gena: Filth is able to slowly pull herself over to the ropes. She grabs on tightly, but Merlot doesn't let go. Instead, she chokes more tightly. Filth kicks her feet, and flails her arms around, trying to claw at Merlot's grip.

Chad: Orchid and Celeste defy the temporary order by getting back inside of the ring. They stomp wildly on Merlot before Celeste reaches down and begins choking Merlot with her hooded jacket. Omasa rolls back inside and ducks a chop from Orchid.

Gena: She throws a boot right into Orchid's chest, sending her to the outside through the ropes. Celeste ducks under her and outside. Omasa quickly follows after. Filth appears to be out, and Merlot picks her up.

Chad: Filth blasts her with the Black Mist, but Merlot blocks with her arm and nails the Eternal Burning (High Velocity Roundhouse)!!! She goes for the cover!

ONE!

DING DING DING!

Darlyn: Here is your winner and NEW Underground Champion... Merlot Ayanoooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!

Crowd: *SUPER MEGA POP!!!*

Chad: Merlot raises the belt up high above her head in celebration. She's done it! She is our NEW champion, one that we can be proud of! But somebody better tell Celeste and Orchid that this match is over because they're still brawling with Omasa.

Gena: Only now, they've got her on the ground, inside of the ring! They are stomping the shit out of her, and Celeste lands a major kick to the back of her head. And thankfully, not like I thought I'd ever say this, but Javier Gonzalez is coming down to save his tag team partner!

Chad: Javi slides inside of the ring with a microphone at the ready. Celeste and Orchid stop and get into a defensive stance as Merlot closes in on them as well.

Javier: No, no, no, no, no. You don't have to stop. Keep going...

Gena: What? What is he talking about?

Javier: See, mami over there is tough. She can take it. And then, she's gonna turn around on the next show and whoop your asses. She's gonna hurt both of you, very, very... very badly.

Merlot nods her head and cracks her knuckles, ready to move in. Javi smile widely.

Javier: Y'all already done fucked it up tonight. You might as well keep going, make it worth your while, homez. That's right, get another stomp or two in there. Yeah...

Merlot looks confused, and Javi laughs. He holds a hand up, letting Merlot know what he's doing. He also makes it no secret that he's carrying a briefcase with him. Celeste and Orchid get a few more good stomps in there.

Javier: You can do better than that. Pick her up and do some kind of double team move. The fans looooooooooove tag team moves!

Orchid and Celeste lift Omasa up and send her to the ropes. Merlot is about to interject, but Javi grabs onto her shoulder to stop her. A Double Flapjack sees Omasa bounce off of the mat. Merlot moves in, but Javi grabs her and pulls her back. She goes to shrug him off, but he moves forward.

Javier: Niiiiiiiiiiiice! Now, how about we see a finisher or two. Really get in there, mang. Maybe do some off the top ropes shit too. You know, one of those frog splash things. That'll be good for ratings...

Merlot goes after Orchid, but Filth nails Merlot in the back of the head with the Underground Championship. As Merlot goes down, the crowd boos. Filth nails a few more shots with the belt as Celeste nails the Homicidal (A right hook to the temple followed by a European Uppercut, polished off with a Running Bulldog) on Omasa! Javi then slams the briefcase into the referee's arms and drags Omasa over to Merlot, draping her over Merlot.

Javier: Count it, pendejo! It's her contract! She would want to take this opportunity! Do your job!

ONE!

DING DING DING!

Darlyn: ... Here is your NEW Underground Champion... Omasa Tazu...?

Chad: This is total bullshit! Omasa would NOT want this!

Javier: You asked for this, Omasa! You let me get my culo kicked in last week while you was hanging out with Merlot. No Fucks Given...

Javi throws the microphone down to the mat. He drags the title over to Omasa and places it down over her waist. Javi looks over at Celeste and Orchid with a nod. He leaves the ring as Omasa and Merlot are left laid out. Orchid and Celeste usher her out of the ring as medics come out to check on Merlot and Omasa.

The camera shows off the backstage area. Diamond Steele is absolutely furious as she puts on her glittery attire. She shakes her head in utter disgust as the cameras beam in on her face.

Diamond: Bloody fucking hell. Would you get that stupid camera out of my face. This company is really pissing me off. Where is my respect?! I deserve to have my band in the building but sadly I can't have them here because if any of them shows up I will have to give up my championship opportunity. It doesn't matter because at the end of the day I will beat Keira and I will showcase why I am getting back to where I belong in this company.

There are footsteps and it is that of her eleven year old daughter Juliet. Juliet smiles as she nods her head in agreement.

Juliet: Hi mom... I love you so much!!! I am happy to be living with you.

Diamond: I am happy too my pumpkin. You see this company wishes to stack the deck against me but it really doesn't matter because I will have a championship over my shoulders. I will beat Keira and I will become three title Diamond! It really doesn't matter what anybody thinks but I deserve to be here.

Juliet: That's right you didn't cheat or anything. You beat Krystal! You beat Salco!

Diamond: And I even beat Seleana. I don't ask for handouts and I never expect to be handed one. Tonight I not only represent myself but I will make Jet City South proud. I will bring the Roulette Title back to the school and Mikah will win the tournament it's as simple as that. So bring it on Keira because I only see one thing in your future. It's called a Diamond Cutter. See you out there...

With that Diamond and Juliet walk away as we go elsewhere.

The camera switches backstage and the crowd cheer as they see Alex Rush walking through the backstage area. Alex grins as he looks around, but his face is half painted blue, an unusual look for him. His eyes widen as he spots a familiar face.

Alex: Fuzzy lightning bolt!

The camera turns to see a horrified Marissa Henry trying to cover her face but Alex grins.

Alex: You can cover your eyes all you want but I'd know those pins anywhere.

Alex points to her legs as Marissa sighs. She looks closely at him.

Marissa: Why is your face painted?

Alex: Well I'm in the Warriors Brawl match, whatever that is, so I guessed you at to come dressed as a warrior and I decided to be Braveheart...... FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEDOM!

Marissa shakes her head.

Marissa: It doesn't mean you have to come dressed as a warrior. It's just a name Alex.

Alex: It's not a fancy dress as a warrior type of dealy?

Marissa: No, it's a match.

Alex: Well monkey nuts! I shaved me legs for nothing.

The camera pans down to see Alex with his hand behind his back, but wearing a kilt, Marissa rolls her eyes.

Marissa: You didn't need to do that. You just needed to show up.

Alex: I did show up, I'm blinking glad they had the pre show at the same arena as the main show this time, last time, they were across town, I couldn't get here to say hiya to people! Who has a pre show in a different arena? Madness I tell thee!

Alex moves his hand from behind his back and raises it to his head, scratching his messy hair. Marissa raises and eyebrow.

Marissa: And bottles on your fingers?

Alex: Thought I had to clunk them together and chant a bit.

Alex starts knocking the bottles together in a slow methodical style.

Alex: WAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRIORS, COME OUT AND PL-AAAAAY, WAAAAAAAAAAAARRIORS, COME OUT AND PLAAAAAAAA-EH! WARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRIORS.....

Marissa: We get it, we get it!

Alex: So I didn't need to shave me legs, paint me face or put these on me fingers?

Marissa: No.

Alex: Well Roger me senseless.

Marissa: I need to go, you might wanna get that paint off ya face before your match.

Alex: Roger wilko! Ta-rah for a bit!

Marissa walks away and Alex taps his chin with his bottled fingers.

Alex: I wonder what you need to get sharpee off yer face?

Alex shrugs and attempts to pull the bottle off his finger, but quickly discovers they're stuck.

Alex: Well bugger.... Little help?

Alex walks off camera to look for some help as the camera cuts elsewhere.

Justin: The following match is for the Internet Championship!!! Introducing first!!

The lights go down as the angelic sound of a choir begins singing. As the choir sing, a spotlight slowly comes on, revealing the silhouette of a man with his arms held out, forming a cross. The back outline of angel wings flanks him on both sides. The choir goes quiet as the lead vocals come in.

"I'm an angel with a shotgun, shotgun, shotgun. An angel with a shotgun, shotgun, shotgun."

The house lights come up and the man known throughout the wrestling world as "Godly" Ken Davison stands center stage, taking in the reaction of the crowd. As the main verse kicks in, Davison methodically walks down to the ring, ignoring everything else going on around him.

Justin: Making his way to the ring he is the Internet Champion... "Godly" Ken Davison!!!!

Davison gets to the ring side area and jumps onto the ring apron. He wipes his feet and enters the ring between the top and middle ropes as the chorus kicks in. The song continues and Davison removes his vestments, handing them to the ring attendant. Davison circles the ring and as the chorus kicks in again, and Davison stands in the middle of the ring, once again posing with his arms out. As he stands still a red laser circles the arena.The red dot of the laser finally settles on the center of Davison's forehead and the sound of a gunshot echoes throughout the arena as the lights once again go dark. When the lights come back up, Davison is on his knees with his arms still extended.

Justin: And his opponent..

"Wasted" begins, and there is a brief murmuring of fans. As the song picks up, Jack Washington parts the curtain, a look of focus and minor indifference on his face.

Justin: Making his way down the isle.. Jack Washington!!

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.

Justin: And their opponent...

The houselights cut out, a single Raven cries out soon joined by another, then another until the cries of an entire unkindness fill the house sound system, soon broken by "Hell Broke Luce" by Tom Waits cutting through, the house lights coming up to a dull blue as a single white strobe light pulses in time to the song's percussion. Standing in the middle of that pulsing light, back to the ring, stands Matthew Knox adorned in his ring gear and a sleeveless hoodie. Arms outstretched like a bird in flight he pivots on a heel and begins making his way to the ring

Justin: Making his way to the ring.. Matthew "The Raven" Knox!!

After sliding under the bottom rope and picking a corner to charge and leap upon to scream the audience into a frenzy. He takes a lap around the ring, before kneeling in a corner and patiently waiting for the ring to sound.

Justin makes his way out of the ring and the referee after checking all the competitors signals for the bell.

DING DING DING!

The match starts with a stare down between Davison and Knox. Washington not wanting to be outdone charges in and clocks Davison with a stiff elbow shot to the side of the head and knocks him clear out of the ring and Knox just stood there amused for a moment before Washington charges at him. Knox catches him with a belly to belly suplex and mounts him for some stiff forearm shots to the head but is struck from behind with a kick to the back. Rolling off of Washington he is hit with an elbow drop to the sternum by Davison who had returned to the ring. Davison then turns to Washington who had just gotten to his knees and hits him with a stiff kick to the chest. Quickly following with another kick but Washington evades that kick and tries to go for the quick pin rolling up Davison.

ONE!

KICKOUT!

Davison quickly rolls to his feet and charges at Washington who avoids the charge and Davison hits Knox instead with the clothesline and Knox is driven to the corner with the contact. Davison goes to follow up by kicking Knox in the corner but Washington comes in from behind with a splash driving the air out of both Davison and Knox.

Simone: You need eyes in the back of your head at all times in a triple threat match

Adams: Washington just came flying in flattening both Davison and Knox.

Throwing Davison out of the ring Washington grabs Knox and with a bridged German Suplex goes for the pin right away.

ONE!

KICKOUT!

As Washington releases the move Knox has already kipped up to his feet and was ready for him and started on a flurry of kicks and punches showing off his MMA skills and with a vicious gut punch Washington goes to one knee gasping for air. Knox follows it up with a roundhouse kick sending Washington to the mat and follows it up with a springboard leg drop. Going for the quick cover Knox hooks the leg.

ONE!

TW...

KICKOUT!

Washington tries to get up but is yanked back down and covered again but this time kicks out before the referee can get back into position. Knox gets to his feet first and moves out of the way just in time as Davison has come back into the ring and with a hard knee to the temple knocks Washington back down. Davison tries to go for the pin but Knox is behind him already and with a rear naked choke hold brings him down to the mat grapevining his legs around Davison. Just as the referee checks if he is out Washington stomps on Knox's head which breaks the hold.

Simone: Just when you think you got the advantage the third breaks it up..

Adams: Kno

HBCarter: After-after everything... I just keep waiting for this bubble to pop! Or for me to wake up... Everything that I did to get here... teaming with my girl Ari... the Pride tag titles! The TV championship... the Combat title ... I was honestly starting to think that this was never going to happen... but it did. I-I still can't believe it!

Marissa: You look like you're feeling pretty overwhelmed right now!

A laugh escapes Carter as he swallows hard and nods.

HBCarter: I can't even describe the way this feels! Everyone who was there for me, everyone who kept pushing me when I felt like just giving up! Everyone who was there for me... my girls here... you... Gabriel and Odette...

But the rest of his words are drowned out by the experience of his mentor, Gabriel Stevens himself, stepping into the scene. Gabriel reached around the back of his head and neck and simply stared into his eyes, looking over the newest champion of the GO Gym. Gabriel's face was quite serious, until he finally smiled and set his forehead against Carter's own, proud as proud could be as Carter's eyes close and he chokes back a sob of gratitude.

The camera changes to the interview set with Miss Rocky Mountains standing by with the world champion Mac Bane.

Ms. Rocky Mountains: We are here with the current reigning and defending SCW World Champion Mac Bane.

The booing of the crowd is extremely loud for the Supercard as the fans are making sure their collective voices are heard. Mac, completely unphased by it simply smiles.

Mac Bane: Thank you, ma'am, and in spite of their poor taste, thank you to the fans as well.

Ms. Rocky Mountains: it's a pleasure Mac, so the questions have come rolling in due to the high risk involved in this match.

Mac chuckles and motions for her to continue.

Ms. Rocky Mountains: Okay first question, How would losing the world title affect you on a personal level?

Mac Bane: That's actually a really good question, who sent that one in?

She looked down at the card

Ms. Rocky Mountains: Jeff B from Victoria, Texas

He smiles and nods his head

Mac Bane: Of course, it would be a Texan. Let's put it this way if I were to lose the title. Which is possible on any given day. I would take that in the worst way imaginable. I doubt the person who took my title would be able to leave the arena under their own power.

She looks at Mac, her face full of shock.

Ms. Rocky Mountains: that's harsh, Mac.

Mac Bane: that's how life is, I treat that the same way I'd treat someone trying to break into my home. They are there to do you harm and take things that you value.

Mac shrugs his shoulders as if that should all be self-explanatory

Mac Bane: I have time for one more.

Ms. Rocky Mountains: Of course, this one is from England, but it doesn't have a name..."Why would you call out a wrestling legend like Ben Jordan, he'll wreck you

Mac laughs and shakes his head.

Mac Bane: funny thing, wrestling legends...overused and applied to people who don't deserve it. Wrestling legends are a dime a dozen in this business anymore. So many different companies have their own Wolrd Title, so even that is watered down these days. I called Ben out because he is one of the best to ever step foot in a Sin City ring. I didn't do it to be mean, I did it so he'd get off his ass and do something about me. If he can.

With that Mac walks out of the shot and we return to the ring.

Justin: The following is the finals of the Blast from the Past tournament and also on the line is the World Heavyweight championship. This is scheduled for one fall...Introducing first...

Jared James Nichols opening vocals on "Nails In The Coffin" cuts through the silence, as a fog fills the SCW entrance. A light from below reveals Max Burke.

Justin: On his way to the ring, from Dorchester, New Brunswick Canada, standing at 6' and weighing in at 220lb... Max Burke!!!

As the music intensifies, Burke reaches the edge of the squared circle. He turns on his heel, and makes his way to the ring steps. Once on the ringside apron, Burke glides his finger over the top rope as he walks to the center. He turns, his head bowed. Spotlights hit him from all directions as his music reaches a crescendo. Max lifts his head and poses for the fans.

Justin: And his partner, from Miami Florida, she is Myra Rivers

"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.

Adams: Myra and Max are two very tough competitors and I don't think that anyone should count them out for sure. Both are former champions after all.

Simone: That is true Jason but they are facing current champions aren't they?

Adams: That is true, let's go to Justin for their introductions.

Justin: From New York, she is currently one half of the Mixed Tag Team champions...Mikah!!

The arena fades to black before a mash up of Shakin Hands by Nickelback, Dirty Little Girl by Burn Halo, and Bad Bitch by Bebe Rexha feat. Ty $sign begins to play. The song plays a for about ten seconds before the lights start to flash and Mikah soon makes her way out onto the stage, one hand on her hip the other by her side. She stops in the middle of the stage before rolling her hips to the left before continuing her way down the ramp. She jeers at the crowd before rolling her eyes at them and ignoring them. She jogs up the stairs before strutting two steps onto the apron then slowly getting into the ring between the bottom and middle rope, dipping her upper body lower than her lower body to make her butt stick out a bit.

Justin: And her partner, the current World Heavyweight champion...

The opening guitar riffs of "The Enemy" by Godsmack plays as the big man makes his way out. By his side is his manager, "Chronic" Chris Page. The crowd is on them from the first sounds. The booing is almost thunderous. He laughs as they make their way towards the ramp. They only get louder as the pair make their way towards the ring, they walk slowly, jawing with the occasional fan who's decided he's a tough guy. Mac simply laughs and continues down towards the ring. Finally, they reach the ring steps and make their way into the ring. Mac approaches the center of the ring and raises both arms into the air. Then extending the middle fingers on both hands he laughs as the boos reaches a crescendo.

Simone: Well, it looks like the fans have their favorites Jason and now, I have to ask why there isn't a referee in the ring.

Adams: Maybe there will be no rules in this match.

The soft twang of an electric guitar begins to play as "She's Country" blasts out over the arena. A familiar redhead walks out onto the stage of the show dressed in white and black hotpants, matching halter, a pair of lace up wrestling boots that look like cowboy boots where she stops and looks over the crowds who begin to chant her name as Justin brings the microphone to his lips.

Justin: The special referee for this match, 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 plays to the fans, slapping hands and posing with others. Finally she climbs the stairs to the ring apron and lays herself across the middle rope and blows a kiss to the camera and then rolls inside the ring. She moves into the center of the ring and motions for the bell.

DING DING DING!

Simone: Sam Marlowe is the referee for this match and Mikah doesn't look to happy.

Myra stands back as Mikah is arguing with Justin who is leaving the ring. She points at Sam saying that she is going to be punished for being Mark Ward's favorite bombshell because Sam is friends with Max Burke and Myra Rivers. The two share a surprised look as Sam shakes her head and motions calling it down the middle. She motions for the match to begin. Max Burke motions for Myra to leave the ring as he moves towards the center of the ring. Mikah is still arguing as Justin leaves the ring and Sam tells her to get out of the ring. Angrily, she slides between the ropes as Mac Bane meets Max Burke in the middle of the ring. The two begin to circle before lunging to catch each other in a collar and elbow tie up that Bane leverages to push Burke into a neutral corner. Burke holds up his arms as Sam moves to warn Bane to release the hold. He does and backs away to turn towards his corner with a smirk as Max charges off the ropes with a clothesline on the back of Mac Bane's neck sending him to the mat. Sam checks on him as he gets to his hands and feet. Max flips over the body of Bane and ties him up with a quick pin but Bane kicks out with authority.

Adams: Max Burke going for the quick win but he should have known better because Mac Bane is the champion and won't be beaten that easily.

Max Burke gets to his feet and then grabs the arm of Mac Bane and whips him into the ropes and catches him in a sleeperhold that he locks in. Bane windmills his arms in an attempt to grab the ropes but still has the ring presence to back up and slam Burke back first into the corner. The hold weakens slightly to allow a bit of air into the lungs of Bane who once more slams the back of Burke into the turnbuckle and is able to escape the hold as he falls to the mat and begins to crawl to his corner where Mikah has her hand held out into the ring for the tag. Max Burke is about to grab Bane but he tags in Mikah in desperation. Sam counts the tag and motions Mikah into the ring. She climbs inside and gets right in the face of Marlowe who warns her off. Mikah jaws at her telling her to make Max Burke leave the ring and tag in Myra. Sam motions for Max to leave the ring as Mikah smirks. Myra takes the tag and begins to slide into the ring only to be caught by Mikah who had moved to the ring apron. Mikah grabs the head of Myra and tugs her head upward to choke her on the top rope. Marlowe moves to the side of Mikah who is twisting the neck of Rivers. Sam warns her then begins to count Mikah out of the ring. At four, Mikah releases Rivers who falls into the ring clutching at her neck and head. Mikah holds a hand up into the face of Sam who is giving her a warning. Mikah moves to grab the legs of Myra who is quicker and then locking her feet around the lower legs of Mikah, Rivers brings her to the mat face first with a leg lock. Mikah grabs her face and kicks at the canvas as Myra makes her way to her feet. Sam checks on Mikah who is pointing to her face. Myra catches at the kicking legs of Mikah and wraps her up in a cloverleaf hold. Mikah reacts quickly and side crawls to the ropes and catches the bottom one which has Sam telling Myra to let go of Mikah. Releasing her, Myra nods and gets to her feet.

Simone: So far the match has been all Max Burke and Myra Rivers. Is this a sign of the outcome?

Mikah rolls out of the ring and lands on the floor where she uses the ring apron to hobble her way to her corner. Myra drops to the mat and rolls out of the ring to where Mikah is and grabs her intent on whipping her into the steel ringpost. Mikah reverses it and slams Myra back first into the steel. Myra is laying in pain on the floor as Mikah moves around the ringpost and picking her up, rolls her into the ring where she follows and then pins Myra's shoulders to the mat. Sam slaps the canvas for the count and gets a one count as Myra kicks out. Mikah gets to her feet and questions Sam about the one count. Marlowe explains that Myra kicked out. Mikah tells her to count faster next time and turns to see Myra reach up for the tag to Max Burke. Frustrated, Mikah moves towards her own corner and tags in Mac.

Adams: Mikah isn't too happy with the refereeing of Sam Marlowe who is really keeping it straight down the middle.

Simone: She is but from the look of Mikah she doesn't think she is.

Max rushes across the ring only to be met with a dropkick from Bane as he leaps over the top rope and into the match. Burke slams to the mat and rolls away from the corner followed by Mac Bane who drives a knee drop between the shoulder blades of Burke forcing him to arch in pain. Grinding the knee into the back of Burke, Mac Bane slams open palmed hits to the ears and head of Burke. Sam Marlowe moves to warn Bane about the hits but Bane holds up his open hand to show her that he isn't using closed fists. This gives Burke enough time to fight his way to his hands and knees then forces Bane to roll off. Bane rolls quickly to his feet but is taken right back off them by a kick to the midsection from Burke. Bane grabs his middle in pain as Mikah yells at Sam to disqualify Burke.

Simone: Mikah wants the win so badly doesn't she Jason. She is telling Sam how to do her job.

Sam ignores her and moves around as Burke locks on a sleeperhold on Mac again. They are close to the corner where Mikah is and in a desperation move, Mac falls forward to slam the face of Burke into the turnbuckle. Mikah reaches down as Burke has Bane almost out and tags herself in. Sam acknowledges the tag and informs Max that he has to tag in Myra. Max ragdolls Bane slightly as Mikah is moving across the ring and reaching for Myra to pull her into the ring. Sam rushes over and gets between the pair as Max releases Mac and sends him rolling out of the ring. Mikah is forced back by Sam who puts her arms out between Mikah and Myra. Rivers moves backwards as Mikah again lunges at her with Sam between them, half using Marlowe as a shield as she slaps at the head of Rivers. Sam pushes her back which has Mikah raising her hand to hit Sam who looks at her and then points to the logo on her referee's shirt. Mikah angrily moves around her and is attacked by Myra Rivers who uses a top rope headscissors to take Mikah down to the canvas. Mikah is near the ropes and Myra lets her rise slowly before running and using a springboard bulldog to drive Mikah face first into the mat again.

Simone: Mikah better be careful in angering the referee because not only is Sam the referee, she is also a bombshell here in SCW and has beaten Mikah before.

Mikah rolls to her corner and gets to her feet. Myra charges in but Mikah avoids the attack by throwing herself to the side. She tags in Mac and then rolls to the outside. Myra turns to tag in Max but Mikah retags herself in and then rushing over to Myra who hasn't tagged in her partner, she grabs a handful of hair and brings her back into the middle of the ring where she kicks Myra in the midsection and hits a face plant on the canvas. Rolling over, she grabs two handfuls of hair and begins to bash the face of Rivers into the canvas. Sam moves to Mikah and warns her to let go of Myra. Mikah smirks into the face of Sam as she holds the head of Myra up and taunts Marlowe before slamming if a final time into the canvas. Marlowe tells Mikah to let Myra rise. Mikah gets up and into the face of Marlowe taunting her. Myra slowly begins to crawl towards her corner for a tag but Mac Bane drops to the floor and races around the ring to pull Burke off the apron. The men begin fighting at ringside as Mikah moves towards Myra and picks her up. Swaying slightly, Myra takes a kick to the midsection and then is taken down with the Mikahangelo. Rolling Myra over, Mikah motions for Sam to make the count as she lays on the body of Myra who appears to be out. Dropping to the canvas, Sam makes the count.

Simone: It looks like Mikah has this won for her team.

ONE!

Adams: And Sam Marlowe is counting the fall.

TWO!

Adams: And not liking it Belinda.

Simone: I agree. Mikah is rubbing it in too.

THREE!

Adams: That does it...Mikah has won it.

DING DING DING!

Justin: The winners of the match, and Blast from the Past champions for 2022...Mikah and still World Heavyweight champion...Mac Bane!

Mikah rises to her feet and holds out her hand for Sam to raise it but Sam is checking on Myra. Mikah waves her hand at Sam who slowly rises to her feet and raises the hand briefly of Mikah and Mac Bane who has come back into the ring. Myra has rolled to the side of the ring where she is checked on by Max Burke. Sam Marlowe drops the arm of Mikah as if she has been burned and then moves out of the ring to check on Myra again leaving Mac and Mikah to celebrate in the ring.

Adams: That match had it all Belinda and it really was a back and forth match that could have gone any which way.

Simone: Very true Jason and we have crowned this year's Blast from the Past champions. Here are the big questions however...How is Mac going to feel knowing he quite possibly helped Mikah to earn a shot at his wife's title and two, who is the number one contender to Mac Bane's title since he won the tournament? I wonder when we will find out the answer to that huh?

Adams: Hopefully soon Belinda, hopefully soon.

SCW's backstage announcer Pussy Willow is shown smiling as the camera focuses on her.

Pussy: Ladies and Gentlemen, the challenger in the upcoming main event, Roxi Johnson.

Cheers for Roxi as she steps into frame, a serious look on her face. She exhales a big breath, shaking out her arms and legs.

Pussy: Roxi, we're just a short time away from you stepping into the ring against Amber Ryan, Any last-minute thoughts?

Roxi: No, PW, I don't have last minute thoughts, these have been last couple of days thoughts. The fact is, I'm going into this match, an underdog, and it's going to be the toughest fight of my life. Tonight, I have to be literally PERFECT out there. That's how good Amber is. I know from experience.

Roxi pauses, staring into the camera.

Roxi: I've said this before, and you can look into my eyes and you know I'm telling the truth. Tonight, I'm either going to become the Bombshell's champion, or I am going to DIE trying. Because Amber will have to kill me, to beat me.

Roxi shakes her head, and eyes filled with steely determination.

Roxi: Amber Ryan, let's go to war.

Roxi touches Pussy Willow on the shoulder, nodding to her before walking away.

Justin: The following match is scheduled for one fall introducing the first the challenger 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, a huge smile on her face. She soaks in the cheers and treks onward, seemingly greeting every fan, before climbing up on the apron and looking out at the cheering crowd, before entering the ring and climbing the turnbuckle and raising her arms in the air to massive cheers. She jumps down from the top turnbuckle and lands in the ring, turns to the hard camera side and dropping to a knee, and giving the "I love you" in sign language pose. She stands and begins jumping up and down in an exercising manner as the music cuts out.

Justin: And her opponent the champion Amber Ryan!!!

Pulsing, red lights rolls over the crowd like a rising tide to the opening echoing thudding stomp and clap of 'Dust And Bone' by Syd Duran, fluctuating in time with the heavy beat as it continues into the opening vocals.

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.

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.

Drew Patton looks at both competitors as he raises the World Bombshell Championship high into the air. Amber and Roxi both keep their eyes locked on the World Championship before Drew Patton slowly hands the championship over to somebody at ringside. The bell sounds loudly as the start of the match has officially been signaled.

DING DING DING!

Simone: And finally after their epic feud with one another going back to 2020 Amber Ryan and Roxi Johnson are going to have their one on one match.

Adams: And for those who don't remember it was in 2020 where these two won feud of the year. So you know they have a lot of bad blood for one another.

Roxi and Amber both emerge out of their corner as they just take a moment to glare at one another. Nothing is said as they continue engaging in their stare down. Each woman looking to see what the other is going to do to make the first move. Roxi throws the first blow as she reaches back and throws a punch in Amber's direction. To punch connects with Amber's cranium forcing her head to snap back. Ryan however just cracks a wicked grin as she instead just goes into a rage.

Simone: Roxi finally deciding to throw the first blow.

Adams: But look at that smile on Amber. She loves this and with her dirty boxing background that might have been a mistake.

Ryan laughs it off before she quickly turns around nailing Johnson directly in the mouth with a spinning backfist. Roxi is the one to stagger back now but Ryan is now on her prey like a Ryan as she just constantly delivers knee after knee against Roxi's gut. Johnson is forced to just back away into the corner as Ryan keeps up with a bunch of ambidextrous strikes. She elbows her, she knees her. Roxi covers up trying to deliver some counter strikes but Ryan feints and dodging showcasing this is what she is best at. Roxi tries to strike back with a hook but Ryan ducks it and constantly with a vicious elbow to Roxi's face. She connects flush with the mouth, and the superhero now has a bloody lip as the hard elbow drops her in the corner.

Simone: This is not a position that Roxi wants to be in. This is Amber's world right now.

Adams: She needs to get out of there. Amber wants to end this quickly, and if this is the type of match she is getting. It won't be much longer.

Roxi covers up as she reaches for her mouth in pain, and at the same time Amber Ryan is now backing up. She cracks a grin before she sprints at top speed toward her downed opponent. She is looking for a running knee but as she is about to hit the mark with another blow to Roxi's head, the Tampa native is able to roll out of the way causing Amber's knee to bang against the turnbuckle. She yells a loud vulgar comment as Roxi scoops Ryan up into a tight small package. She has it locked on tight as Patton drops down for a count.

ONE!

TWO!

At the last possible moment Ryan is able to kick out of the as she looks at Patton before shifting her eyes over to Roxi.

Simone: Amber has been an amazing champion. She has taken down challenger after challenger but all it will take is three seconds for everything she worked so hard for to end.

Adams: Especially to Roxi Johnson. Johnson has great in ring IQ so she needs to watch out.

Roxi is finally on her feet and Amber doesn't give Roxi anytime to breathe as she comes right at her. She cocks a fist back as she goes for a haymaker but Roxi is able to grab that arm and she wraps her legs around it in the middle of the air as she takes the both of them down to the mat. Roxi now has a Cross-Arm Breaker applied on Amber's arm and she yanks back as far as she can. Amber screams as she tries her best to break free.

Simone: Roxi finally has some offense in and the submission expert has it locked on tightly.

Adams: Not only that but it's on the side of Amber's nagging shoulder injury. She has to be in pain.

Amber is furious as she doesn't want to move too much because she knows that Roxi is just going to clamp down even harder. She doesn't try to move in a different direction as instead she cocks her fist back with her free hand and she just tries to hit Roxi's leg trying her best to force a break. It does nothing though as Roxi doesn't seem affected and she wrenches tighter than before. Amber decides to do something unique as she moves her mouth towards Roxi's calf and instead she clamps down with her teeth biting Roxi has hard as she possibly can. Roxi screams as loud as she can as Ryan has her teeth sunk in. Roxi finally decides to let go but not before the camera spots Amber taking a chunk of Roxi's skin as she begins to spit out some of Roxi's flesh with blood.

Simone: That might have been the most unique way I have seen someone get out of a cross-arm breaker.

Adams: She took flesh with that one and it looks like the cries of a champion who will do whatever it takes to walk away as a winner.

Roxi hobbles a bit as she wipes the blood from her mouth before trying her best to soothe her calf that was bitten. Amber sits up holding her shoulder as a sick smile escapes her lips. She reaches into her pocket and puts something into her mouth before rising up to her feet. Amber has her back to Roxi, and this is when the super hero tries to shake her leg off. She runs in the opposite direction which more than less looks like a fast limp type of sprint. She runs back towards Amber as she has a running bull dog in mind but Amber is able to sense her coming as she bridges backwards for a matrix like dodge. Roxi keeps sprints as she bounces off of the opposite ropes. She holds on tightly to stop herself from running. Amber anticipated to running back as she spits out a green mist that hits nothing.

Simone: Amber was looking for her mist but Roxi manage to stop herself from walking into that trap.

Adams: It's a sign that these two women know one another more than they would care to admit.

Ryan isn't shocked as Roxi's ring IQ as she welcomes more of a challenge. Roxi using those same turnbuckles and she jumps on top of them with her back to Amber. The New Jersey native is quick as she runs towards Roxi in hopes of pushing her outside of the ring but Johnson is able to leap off of the ropes backwards. She grabs a hold of Amber in the middle of the air, and somehow shifts her body a bit to send Ryan down with a modified springboard ddt.

Adams: Ryan is finally down on the mat.

Simone: It didn't look pretty but it was definitely effective. Johnson now has the opening she was looking for.

Roxi keeps her eyes locked on her downed opponent as she instead looking for something to keep Amber down for a longer period of time. She is able to bounce off of the ropes again and this time she nails her Reality Bites (Lionsault) right against Amber's chest. Amber is hurting but Roxi doesn't bother with a pin attempt as she rises up to her feet. Instead she turns Amber around and begins to bend back Ryan's hurting knee from earlier along with trapping that arm with the shoulder injury for a tight STF. Both areas that Ryan has serious pain in is being worked as she is trapped in the middle of the ring.

Simone: Once again Roxi has Ryan trapped in a position in the middle of the ring.

Adams: Amber may have struck first but Roxi is using more of her submission based style instead of her normal high flying one to really break down Amber.

Simone: The question is what will Amber do here. How much can she take?!

Amber screams again as both areas are now being worked in ways she couldn't imagine. Even if she wanted to crawl towards the ropes she knows it's not a feasible option as she knows Roxi will just have worn her down even more, and Ryan doesn't want to spend more unnecessary time in those two submissions. She instead uses her free arm to try to shift her body. It's to no avail but she let's out a howling scream as she uses all of the strength in her good arm to push off of the back. It's enough to send Roxi on her back with Amber on top. Johnson however doesn't let go of the hold but Ryan is officially on top which warrants a pin attempt. Patton sees this and begins to count.

ONE!

TWO!

Roxi realizes what is happening and is forced to let go giving Ryan both her arm, and her knee back. Amber does her best to shake it off as she reaches into her pocket and puts something into her mouth. Roxi is able to get up to her feet and she walks over and tries to help Amber back up but what she gets in return is red mist shot in her face and it's point blank. Roxi staggers blinded as Amber rises up to her feet. Her knees buckle but she doesn't care. She manages to double underhook Roxi's arm and she delivers her double underhook kick-out DDT. Roxi's head is driven into the mat as Amber screams from extending her knee for the ddt. She grabs at her knee in pain as she stares over at Roxi.

Simone: She has managed to hit her Original Sin!

Adams: But she is in too much pain to make a pin.

Simone: She needs to use everything in her to make the attempt.

Amber crawls and she finally throws an arm against Roxi. Patton sees this and begins to make a count.

ONE!

TWO!

THR...NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Roxi is able to throw a shoulder out at the last possible moment and Amber is in shock as she looks to Patton questioning if she really kicked out. Amber just nods her head as Roxi slowly crawls her way over towards the ropes but that's when Amber hobbles back up to her feet. She punches at her own leg in hopes of straightening it out. She spots Roxi on the floor and she double underhook's her arm and flips over her placing her into her Burning The Lot Submission (Cattle Mutilation) she yanks up as hard as she can applying pressure to Roxi.

Simone: Amber is desperate now. She is looking for Roxi to tap out!

Adams: But how much is she putting her own knee in pain by bending it for the submission?! Despite it all Amber wants to win this match.

Ryan has it applied for a while as she screams for Roxi to tap out. However what she gets in return as Roxi reaching her foot backwards. It's enough and Roxi is able to get her foot on the ropes. Patton sees this and immediately calls for the rope break. He begins to count and inform Ryan to let go. She gives the break as she pulls at her own hair and begins to get frustrated. Roxi is slow but uses the ropes to pull herself back up. Ryan however is on the prowl as she walks over to Roxi and grabs her from behind. She twists Roxi's arms getting underneath as she proceeds to lift her up.

Simone: If all else fails she is planning to end it all here with her Sawdust in the Blood.

Adams: Roxi's IQ has helped her get out of the last move but hitting this could end it all!

Ryan lifts up Roxi but Johnson's momentum is able to help her flip out of the move and to the opposite side of Ryan. As soon as Ryan turns around Roxi quickly jumps on her looking for a hurricanrana but Ryan has it scouted. She smiles as she lifts Roxi up looking for a powerbomb. However while Roxi is being sent to the ground with a power bomb she manages to grab a hold of Amber's arm on the way down and she wraps her legs around her. The entire crowd is going nuts as she has a tight triangle choke locked in.

Simone: WHAT A COUNTER!!!!

Adams: ROXI HAS THE JUSTICE LOCK IN TIGHTLY!

Simone: And she has the bad arm trapped as well!

Roxi has Amber trapped in the middle of the ring. Roxi just squeezes tightly as Amber searches for a way to try to fight out of it. She digs into her pocket and is looking for something but Roxi keeps it locked on tighter than before.

Simone: How much can Amber take?!

Adams: I don't know but she is looking in her pocket. She is trying to escape at this point.

Amber's hand searches but as the hold is in deep her attempts become to show less resistance. Her face turns that of a purple. Tapping out isn't an option for her as she fights with everything she has. She tries to reach for anything but nothing is there. She keeps fighting and fight until eventually she begins to go limp. Drew Patton sees this and begins to check her. He lifts her arm up and it falls once. He does it again and it goes back down.

Simone: Could this be?!

Adams: This might be it here!

Patton checks one more time and her hand falls right to the mat. Drew Patton sees this and immediately begins to call for the bell. The crowd is silent however as everybody is in shock. Roxi lays there as Drew Patton calls for the title.

DING DING DING!

Justin: Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of the match AND NEEEEEEW SCW Bombshell World Champion..... ROOOOOOOOOOOOOXIIIIII JOHNNNNNNSON!

Simone: She did it!

Adams: We have a new champion!!!!!!!!! Roxi has dethroned the champion!

Roxi is on the floor as Drew Patton has the title in his hand. He hands it over to Roxi and at first she doesn't take it. She just sits there in shock. She is able to finally process everything and she takes the championship. Meanwhile Patton checks on Amber, and Ryan finally comes to her senses. She pushes Patton aside as she sees Roxi with the championship. Her hands are in her hair as she slowly gets up. Roxi stands up finally holding the title, and it's not too long before Amber makes her way over to Roxi with the title. Amber stares at her for a few moments. The same stare down they had at the beginning of the match is the same one they have now. Although this time Amber offers a hand out. Roxi looks around and takes the hand as they show a sign of mutual respect.

Simone: What a class act.

Adams: Amber has nothing to be ashamed of. She went out on her sword tonight and has been a dominant champion. This match definitely stole the show tonight.

Simone: As it should... It is the main event.

Amber hobbles her way out of the ring with her match wounds leaving Roxi to celebrate. Roxi is given a round of applause as she walks to the corner and raises the title high into the air. Keira runs out and embraces her as people throw streamers into the ring. It's one big happy scene as Roxi breaks into tears.

Simone: It has been two long years since Roxi had this moment.

Adams: But after everything she is finally champion again. This has been an amazing tonight.

Simone: It has been Jason but that is all we have time for. Join us again in two weeks, live from Greece as we kick off the Greece Lightning Tour. For Jason Adams, I'm Belinda Simone saying good night everybody!

The cameras focus on a stunned, but happy Roxi Johnson before fading out.
