The lights dim all throughout the O2 arena in London, England as suddenly things come alive when "Throne" by Bring Me The Horizon begins to blare and the entire place cheers loudly. Miles Kasey steps out with a giant smile as he is greeted with chants and cheers from his home country crowd.
Justin: O2 ARENA PLEASE WELCOME YOUR HOST FOR VIOLENT CONDUCT X, MANCHESTER, ENGLAND'S OWN, MILES KASEY!!!!
When the lyrics get to the chorus, Miles stops and poses with his hands forming his symbol'd W for Wolfslair as the fireworks go off behind him and as it ends he breaks it and pumps his arms and makes his way down the aisle, slapping hands with the fans that have packed the arena for tonight's show. Miles gets to the ring and slides in and immediately gets to the corner and yells out getting the fans even more fired up for tonight.
After a moment he hops down and Justin hands him a microphone and takes his leave as Miles runs circles in the ring and finally he stops in the center and leans back and lets out...
Miles: OI OI, O2 ARENA!!! WELCOME TO VIOLENT CONDUCT X, MATES!
The crowd onhand cheers!
Miles: My GOD it is amazing to be back home. It was amazing when SCW set out on this Royal Pain tour, knowing that the final stop was going to be in my own backyard I knew that I had to be a part of this.
The fans cheer loudly as Miles shrugs his shoulders a bit.
Miles: Sadly while I am not on the card tonight, which sucks so much, you have no idea-
With that it switches out from cheers to boos but Miles holds up his hand
Miles: BUUUUUUUUUUUUUT Violent Conduct is perhaps going to go down in the record books of one of the most brutal shows ever and while I do wanna be out here to give you guys a show myself we do have business to conduct and as your host I feel it's rather obligated as such. So nothing against Simone and Jason but I'm just gonna steal a little bit of your thunder tonight. SO let's run down these matches you are about to see here tonight!
He points to the screen and we see the first of the matches pop up in graphic form.
Miles: We are going to start things off with a Street Fight Match, which means y'all need to be on your toes from the get as they may be coming your way as they beat the piss out of one another. And as a host I'm not really supposed to show favoritism but hell, y'all should already know who I am cheering for from the get, but in that Street Fight we will see Wolfslair mate, Aiden Reynolds is going to battle the "Bulldog" Bill Barnhart.
The screen switches and Miles just smirks because he just cannot help himself.
Miles: Next up, and you know DAMN WELL who we all should be rooting for in this match after the tyranny that the "Queen of SCW" has put people through. From week ONE of this tour Bella Madison has made it KNOW that she is targeting the Queen and with that we get to our first title match of the evening, SCW Bombshell Roulette Champion, Victoria Lyons will defend against an extremely hungry "Belle of the Brawl" Bella Madison.
The graphic switches up as we see Eddie and Justin.
Miles: And because that match may not be Bloody enough, we have our First Blood match as "The Unbreakable" Eddie Lyons, who is quite literally probably one of the most underrated talents in SCW right now, will be taking on a hardcore legend in this crazy world, Justin Smith!
The graphic switches with the next match.
Miles: The Bombshell's are about to put on a clinic in our next match, as Prudence Pierce, Bobbie Dahl and Mercedes Vargas are in a triple threat Submissions Only match. Ok look, a lot of people seem to think Prudence and Mercy have the advantage here but do not count out Bobbie. We know just how amazing she can be when the cards are down.
The fans start chanting "WE WANT TABLES!" as the graphic on the screen has a swirling table to their happiness and we see the graphic for the next match.
Miles: You guys know what's next, eh? Going through tables is never a pleasant feeling but we are about to see 4 women attempt to put the other through them. In a Number One Contenders Match for the Bombshell Roulette Championship, it will be Cassie Wolfe, Seleana Zdunich, Alexandra Calaway and Luna Pasilno in a first ever in SCW, a Tables Elimination match!
The next graphic pops up and Miles stops and stares at it for a moment before scratches the back of his head and paces a bit looking uncomfortable.
Miles: So since this match was announced two weeks ago after my little brother won that main event match, I have declared myself quite literally in the middle and in a way Switzerland. But I cannot help it, I'm going to need a close seat for My heart is in my throat for this match as the SCW Internet Championship is on the line in a Ladder Match, as my better half, Helluva Bottom Carter will look to hold off my little brother, England's own L.J. Kasey.
Much to his chagrin the fans do cheer loudly and the graphic switches up.
Miles: From there we go to the Bombshell Internet Championship match, and we have a Last Woman Standing match as Raine will be facing a woman who I am convinced is a bigger bitch than Kayla Richards and yes I mean that as a compliment, Internet Champion, Julianna DiMaria!
Miles looks up and sees a steel cage hanging above as the graphic switches yet again.
Miles: Speaking of, the SCW Women's World Championship will be on line in one of the most unforgiving matches the Steel Cage as former SCW Internet Champion Tempest will challenge the SCW Women's World Champion, Kayla Richards!
Miles looks up again and just shakes his head as the graphic hits a hard switch and we see the semi-main event.
Miles: We're not done yet everyone, because we still have TWO more matches. In the semi-main, the Men's Roulette Title is on the line in one of the longest standing feuds in SCW AND Jayden is looking for revenge for something that we all wanted to do, but I digress. Alexander Raven's Roulette Championship is on the line as Jayden Harris is on his own and he will be running the Gauntlet against Kevin Carter, J2H and Alexander Raven. ...kid I hope you know what you got yourself into.
Miles takes a big breath as the final graphic for tonight is there and it causes Miles to smirk noticeably.
Miles: AND IN THE MAIN EVENT!!! Man, I feel like I need a cigarette after ALL of these matches but this, this has the potential to go down as the MATCH of the YEAR! The SCW WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP IS ON THE LINE! In a match that has been coming for a long long time as Challenger and Hall of Famer, Kris Ryans will be taking on the man that seems practically unbeatable, Champion and future Hall of Famer in his own right, Finn Whelan and it will be a TWO OUT OF THREE FALLS!!!
The original graphic for tonight pops up and Miles stands there and lets the fans chant whatever they want.
Miles: And there it is folks, Violent Conduct X all lined up and ready to go for you tonight. I want each and everyone of you to enjoy the show, be as loud as you fuckin' want. Show them WHY London, England has the BEST FANS IN THE WORLD! ...But I cannot feel like we are missing something...you know what I mean?
The fans cheer and applaud as Amanda comes out in a classic British aristocratic gown and wig, fanning herself. She prances out to center stage with a microphone in her free hand and the performance begins.
Amanda: You could hear the hoof beats pound as they raced across the ground,
Now Ernie loved a widow, a lady known as Sue,
They called him Ernie, (Ernieeeeeeeeeee)
She said she'd like to bathe in milk, he said, "All right, sweetheart,"
That tickled old Ernie, (Ernieeeeeeeeeee)
Now Ernie had a rival, an evil-looking man,
She nearly swooned at his macaroon and he said, "If you treat me right,
Poor Ernie, (Ernieeeeeeeeeee)
One lunch time Ted saw Ernie's horse and cart outside her door,
Whose name was Trigger, (Triggerrrrrrrr)
Now Ernie rushed out into the street, his gold top in his hand,
Now Ernie dragged him from his van and beneath the blazing sun,
Now Susie ran between them and tried to keep them apart,
Poor Ernie, (Ernieeeeeeeeeee)
Ernie was only 52, he didn't wanna die,
But a woman's needs are many fold and soon she married Ted,
They won't forget Ernie, (Ernieeeeeeeeee)
And the clatter of the wheels as they spun 'round and 'round.
And he galloped into market street, his badge upon his chest,
His name was Ernie, and he drove the fastest milk cart in the west.
She lived all alone in Liddley Lane at number 22.
They said she was too good for him, she was haughty, proud and chic,
But Ernie got his cocoa there three times every week.
And he drove the fastest milk cart in the west.
And when he'd finished work one night he loaded up his cart.
He said, "D'you want it pasturize? 'Cause pasturize is best,"
She says, "Ernie, I'll be happy if it comes up to my chest."
And he drove the fastest milk cart in the west.
Called Two-Ton Ted from Teddington and he drove the baker's van.
He tempted her with his treacle tarts and his tasty wholemeal bread,
And when she seen the size of his hot meat pies it very near turned her head.
You'll have hot rolls every morning and crumpets every night."
He knew once she sampled his layer cake he'd have his wicked way,
And all Ernie had to offer was a pint of milk a day.
And he drove the fastest milk cart in the west.
It drove him mad to find it was still there at half past four.
And as he lept down from his van hot blood through his veins did course,
And he went across to Ernie's cart and didn't half kick his 'orse.
And he pulled the fastest milk cart in the west.
He said, "If you wanna marry Susie you'll fight for her like a man."
"Oh why don't we play cards for her?" he sneeringly replied,
"And just to make it interesting we'll have a shilling on the side."
They stood there face to face, and Ted went for his bun.
But Ernie was too quick, things didn't go the way Ted planned,
And a strawberry-flavoured yogurt sent it spinning from his hand.
And Ernie, he pushed her aside and a rock cake caught him underneath his heart.
And he looked up in pained surprise and the concrete hardened crust,
Of a stale pork pie caught him in the eye and Ernie bit the dust.
And he drove the fastest milk cart in the west.
And now he's gone to make deliveries in that milk round in the sky.
Where the customers are angels and ferocious dogs are banned,
And the milkman's life is full of fun in that fairy, dairy land.
But strange things happened on their wedding night as they lay in their bed.
Was that the trees a-rustling? Or the hinges of the gate?
Or Ernie's ghostly gold tops a-rattling in their crate?
And he drove the fastest milk cart in the west.
The song comes to a close and the crowd here in Canterbury, Kent cheer and applaud Amanda for the classic Benny Hill song. Amanda smiles and blows kisses in all directions before she vanishes behind the curtains.
We get a camera shot of the dressing room where Bill and Bea Barnhart are assigned and we also notice that their friend, Felix Hernandez, is with them in their dressing room. The camera person informs them that they are now live broadcasting so the three sit on the couch and we listen to what they have to say.
Felix: You are fortunate to have several matches in a row Bill. My last match was on August 25, 2024, at Climax Control 402.
Bea: Same with me Felix. My last match was on September 1, 2024, at Climax Control 403.
Bill: Sorry but that is the benefits you receive when you are a top-notch wrestler in Sin City Wrestling. I had matches at Climax Control 401, Climax Control 404, Climax Control 405, and now at Violent Conduct X. Hang in there you two. After Violent Conduct X you two will get assigned to great matches and with more wins you two will start getting shots at Championships like I am getting.
Felix: Thanks for the encouragement Bill. I will, as always, give my best performance in all my matches.
Bea: Same here.
Felix: You had some hard comments for Aiden Reynolds.
Bill: I wanted Aiden to know what he got himself into by accepting this Street Fight match against me. The last thing I want is after he loses to me that he will claim he did not know what he was getting himself into by accepting this match.
Bea: Although I will accompany you for your match once the match starts I will not be able to keep up with you two fighting in the streets. As always you have my support as your wife and Manager.
Bill: Is is an honor to have you as my wife and also serving as my Manager. Felix you are a great friend and we go back many years when we served in the same Wrestling Federation. Enjoy watching my match and watching me destroy Aiden Reynolds.
A backstage attendant arrives at the dressing room to inform Bill that he needs to be at the staging area to be ready for his entrance for his match. Bill and Bea stand up and walk out of the dressing room while Felix remains in the dressing room to watch Bill wrestle on the television in the dressing room.
Justin: This opening contest is a street fight… introducing first hailing from Lawrencevile, Georgia… Bill Barnhart.
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 the ring then walks around the ring playing the crowd before settling into a corner.
Justin: and his opponent… hailing from Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia… Aiden Reynolds.
The opening riff of Parkway Drive's "Vice grip" hits. The high speed gives way to Aiden Reynolds stepping out onto the stage, a fist in the air and a black leather jacket with "The Aussie Wolf" spray painted on the back. He moves his way down to the ring and as the refrain of the song hits he throws his arms out to the side as he and the crowd both chant.
"YEAAAH YEAH YEAH"
He leaps onto the apron and takes a few steps backwards before sling shooting himself into the ring and spinning around, he then stops and drops to one knee slamming his fist into the mat
The ref moves in and indicates for the bell to be rung…
DING DING DING!
Reynolds and Barnhart take a moment before circling the ring, as Reynolds reaches out with Barnhart reacting to his and they touch fingertips before Reynolds backs off and stare at each other before moving in and locking up in the centre of the ring, where they jockey for position, as Barnhart pushes against Reynolds, which Reynolds takes a few steps back but puts a stop on the advancement. He then puts his weight behind the lock up and takes three steps forward, but then Barnhart overpowers Reynolds and pushes back and drives Reynolds backward into the corner.
Simone: They take a moment, as they try and figure each other out, before moving in and locking up. They both look to get the upper hand as they push and shove each other before Barnhart drives Reynolds back into the corner.
Barnhart pins Reynolds in the corner, before Reynolds counters and pins Barnhart in the corner, which Barnhart brings a hand up into Reynolds face as he tries to put him off, although it does, Reynolds releases and back away from Barnhart, as he tells Barnhart to bring it and Barnhart moves away from the corner and speeds up a little and takes a wild swing at Reynolds but Reynolds ducks and grabs Barnhart around the waist, and right away Barnhart grabs at Reynolds hands as he seeks a way out of the move, however, he changes tactic and removes his hand from Reynolds hands and instead throws an elbow back into Reynold's face.
Adams: Once in the corner, Reynolds counters the hold as Barnhart tries to put off Reynolds, but it doesn't work and he backs off. Reynolds then tells at Barnhart to bring it and Barnhart moves away from the corner and then tries for a wild swing but Reynolds ducks and grabs Barnhart around the waist.
Simone: Barnhart grabs at Reynolds hands but instead he find it easier to throw an elbow back and catches Reynolds.
Reynolds releases and holds his face as he moves away from Barnhart and into the corner, Barnhart approaches Reynolds and pushes him upright and hits a chop to the chest. Reynolds grimaces in pain, as Barnhart grabs Reynolds once more and fire in a hard punch and before Reynolds can reel, Barnhart hits another chop to the chest and Reynolds grimaces but then quickly grabs Barnhart around the head but Barnhart quickly pushes Reynolds backwards up against the ropes and Barnhart pushes Reynolds away, who bounces off the ropes opposite and Barnhart goes for a wild swing, but Reynolds ducks and slides through Barnhart's legs and Reynolds makes his way back to his feet, and as Barnhart turns hits a quick single leg dropkick on Barnhart's thigh. Barnhart grabs his thigh, but Reynolds stays down on the mat and throws in a punch and catches Barnhart, Barnhart straightens up and turns to his head towards Reynolds, who slowly makes his way to his feet as Barnhart fires in a tirade of insults.
Adams: Reynolds lets go and checks his face as he moves to the corner away from Barnhart, but Barnhart follows him and begins to punish him some more, as he delivers a chop to the chest and fires in a punch and then another chop, but Reynolds finds himself and grabs Barnhart, but Barnhart quickly pushes Reynolds away into the ropes, as Barnhart goes for a wild swing, which he ducks and slides through Barnhart's legs.
Simone: Reynolds is quickly back to his feet and hits a single leg dropkick and as Barnhart bends forward, Reynolds throws in a punch, which Barnhart isn't impressed with.
Reynolds charges at Barnhart and fire in a couple of shots to Barnhart's head before hitting an high elbow before he turns and looks to rush in but Barnhart get a boot up and catches Reynolds and Reynolds drops down to the mat. Barnhart checks his face before moving back toward Reynolds, who lays on the mat surprised and checks his own face. Barnhart moves over Reynolds and drops to a knee, where he fires in some punches on Reynolds before pinning his head to the mat and he rises back up he stomps on Reynolds head.
Adams: Reynolds doesn't like the insults and makes his way back to his feet and attacks Barnhart, Barnhart stumbles back and Reynolds rushes in and Barnhart catches Reynolds with a boot and Reynolds drop down to the mat.
Simone: Barnhart mounts Reynolds and fires in shots before delivering a stomp.
He quickly shuffles and moves away from Barnhart, but Barnhart moves after him and grabs him and pulls him up and moves him to the centre of the ring, where he delivers a chop to the chest and Reynolds stumbles backwards into the rope and Barnhart rushes in and clotheslines Reynolds out of the ring. Reynolds stumbles backwards and up against the barriers, as Barnhart climbs himself out of the ring and moves towards Reynolds, where he goes to grab him, but Reynolds gives him a shove and Barnhart takes a few steps backwards but rushes in again and Reynolds side steps him and sends him over the barrier and into the crowd.
Adams: Reynolds moves away but Barnhart is back on him and works over him over before sending Reynolds out of the ring.
Simone: Barnhart climbs from the ring and moves after Reynolds and charges but Reynolds dodges him and sends him out of the ring.
Barnhart crawls away and slowly gets to his feet as security moves in to keep the fans away, as Reynolds leaps onto the barriers and then hits a crossbody onto Barnhart, but Barnhart catches him before adjusting Reynolds and hits a body slam onto the hard floor. Reynolds arches his back in pain, as Barnhart then hooks his leg…
ONE!
TWO!
TH-Kick out!
Adams: They are now in with the fans, as Reynolds leaps onto the barriers and hits a crossbody onto Barnhart but Barnhart catches him and then hit a body slam before going for a pin but Reynolds kicks out.
Barnhart shakes his head, as he looks over to his right to see one of many temporary chairs before making his way to his feet, where he grabs one of the empty chairs and folds it up, where he turns his attention back to Reynolds, who is crawling away, and Barnhart lifts the chair up over his head and brings it down across Reynolds back. Reynold holds his back as he cries out in pain, as Barnhart raises the chair once more and does it again and Reynolds screams out in pain before Barnhart drops the chair and this time grabs Reynolds and pulls him up and drags him towards the tier one wall and he throws Reynolds against the wall. Reynold drops to the floor, as Barnhart drags him away and pulls him up once more and goes to ram him against the wall, but Reynolds get a foot up and blocks it and then uses the wall and Barnhart grip to climb up the wall and drops down behind Barnhart and drives him forward into the wall before grabbing him around the head and hits a neckbreaker.
Simone: Barnhart climbs to his feet and grabs a chair and bring it across Reynolds back a couple of times.
Barnhart rolls away holding his head and neck, while Reynolds stays down as he sucks in some air and tries to best to recover the previous chair shots and the being thrown against the wall, as the ref moves in and checks both before moving back.
Simone: The official knows that despite the nature of this event and this match specifically, he still has to have the best interests of both men at heart.
Reynolds slowly sits up but grimaces from the pain, as he continues to check his face for blood, before crawling over to Barnhart and goes for a pin…
ONE!
TWO!
TH-Kick out!
Adams: It takes a lot to keep a good Bulldog down.
Barnhart kicks out and rolls away again, as Reynolds shakes his head, as he makes his way back to his feet and stumbles over to Barnhart and pulls him up to his feet, but Barnhart catches Reynolds off guard and drives a knee into Reynolds stomach before stumbling away and towards the set of stairs that leads up into the corridors of the arena. He moves up the steps, as Reynolds who momentarily dropped to a knee makes his way back to his feet and moves after Barnhart. Reynolds catches up with Barnhart and clubs his back, Barnhart turns and takes a wild swing at Reynolds, which Reynolds ducks and Barnhart quickly turns and continues to move up the stairs and reaches the first set of doors. Reynolds charges up the remaining steps and then charges at Barnhart and drives him backwards against the doors and continues to drive him up against the wall.
Simone: This match is just getting brutal!
Adams: 'Getting' brutal!? It started off that way!
Barnhart grunts as he connects with the wall, as Reynolds roll away for a moment, as fans begins to flood the corridor to watch the action up close, as security also moves in. Reynolds then moves back to his feet and moves to Barnhart, where he grabs him and sits him up against the wall, where he backs off before rushing in and hits a face wash on Barnhart and he slides sideway to the floor. Reynolds grabs Barnhart by the foot and pulls him away before going for a pin…
ONE!
TWO!
TH-Kick out!
Reynolds looks to the ref who indicates that Barnhart kicked out, as Reynolds looks around to see fans gathered around, as he slowly climbs back to his feet, as he stomps on Barnhart before backing up as much as he can before rushing in and looks for a cannon ball but Barnhart dodges and Reynolds splats himself against the hard wall and stays in the cannonball position, as Barnhart crawls away, as he checks his face and continues to move away and gets to the escalator that heads down toward the entrance and takes a moment, as he looks back at Reynolds.
Adams: Bulldog is a veteran of this business and always has something devious in mind that he can do to any given opponent.
Simone: And sometimes I wish my husband looked at me the way Barnhart just looked at the escalator.
He thinks about the escalator, but he turns back to Reynolds, where he drags him towards the escalator, as he contemplates hitting a move, but being metal and moving he opts not to and he places Reynolds on there and watches him go down before he himself steps on and takes the ride down. Barnhart looks around and pretend to check his watch as Reynolds gets to the bottom first and Reynolds crawls off, as Barnhart climbs down to the remain steps and off the escalator and watches as Reynolds continue to crawl through the security gates, but Barnhart follows him and then grabs him, where he pulls him up and grabs him around the waist before driving him backwards and up against the big yellow steel and concrete structural support.
Adams: How is Aiden continuing with Bulldog laying on this much punishment!?
Reynolds grunts for the sudden impact and drops down to the floor, as Barnhart looks around for possible weapons but mainly see decorative trees, lamp posts and restaurant seating. Barnhart moves to the nearest restaurant and grabs an empty chair and drags it where Reynolds is and lifts it up and goes to take a swing at Reynolds, but Reynolds sees it come and dodges and the chair bounces off the concrete and Barnhart releases the chair and shakes his hand. Reynolds moves to the next leg of the steel/concrete structural post and grabs it and pulls himself up but showing the pain on his face and can't take advantage of anything.
Simone: Oh Aiden Reynolds is indeed in a very bad way here.
Barnhart turns his attention back to Reynolds and moves to him, but Reynolds stumbles away and Barnhart charges and clubs the back of Reynolds back and Reynolds stumbles forward and eventually trips up and ends up on his hands and knees. Barnhart moves in and kicks Reynolds in the side and he drops down and Barnhart grabs Reynolds and drags him up and looks for the Bulldog Slam (Angle Slam), but Reynolds blocks it and jabs Barnhart in the side, which forces Barnhart to release and Reynolds grabs Barnhart's hand and hits a short arm clothesline.
Adams: Aiden is making a comeback!
Simone: But will it be enough??
Reynolds drags Barnhart up and then Irish whips him into a decorative lamp post and Barnhart stumbles back and Reynolds spins him around and hits an European uppercut, which Barnhart stumbles backwards and drops to a knee and Reynolds takes a few steps back before rushing in and hits the "Stubby Kick" (Running jump kick to a kneeling opponent) and Reynolds goes for a pin…
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
The barely audible bell rings…
DING DING DING!
Justin: The winner of this match via pinfall… Aiden Reynolds!
The long distance sound of Reynolds music hits over the p.a, as Reynolds takes a second, as the ref moves in and helps him up, as Reynolds looks at Barnhart and shakes his head.
We switch to the backstage area as Miles is walking through the hallway with a smile as everyone is staring at him as Ollie the Cat is paying a visit.
Miles: Ok Ollie, I know you wanted to head to catering for more tuna but mate, I got work to do here as the host. We have this first blood match coming up and this place is already bedlam. I know Eddie has got to be hanging around here somewhere avoiding his cousin. I don't blame the man, she is more of a royal bitch than a royal.
Eddie is found just down the hallway, standing with one foot on the wall when he notices them approach.
Eddie: Hey! Looking for me?
He looks at Ollie.
Eddie: Is that Ollie Dorito?!
Miles: It is. He just popped up and paying a visit to all of us tonight.
Ollie: Me-OW!
Miles: I'm convinced that he is just hanging out because I had tuna in my salad and he seems to think I have more on me but who knows, he may be here as a representative of PWS: Legacy.
Eddie: They're a good crew over there. Cleo Phillips the World Champion is a close friend of mine, and they got my slightly more tolerable cousin there too. I hope the team is well Ollie. Good to see you. Anyway, I heard you needed me before I go beat Justin Smith….again.
Miles: Oh believe me I know. Such amazing talent there, it's why I put in a call for LJ. But that's there, this is here. Mate, it's like a given that you got this, go make the bastard bleed.
Miles offers a fist and Eddie gives it a bump on his own and he even offers it to Ollie who reaches out and gives his own version of a bump. Eddie heads out and Miles yells out.
Miles: Hopefully you can avoid Victoria on the way there.
Miles looks back at Ollie.
Miles: You wanna talk about the biggest bitch in SCW? It's that man's cousin. And no that one wasn't a complement.
Ollie: Me-OW
Miles: I know I shouldn't say that but mate, if you only knew!
By that point the cameras were cutting back to the ringside area for the next scheduled contest of the night. Arena goes dark as the ominous tones of New Year's Day's "Shut up" begins to blare. The entrance lights up as does the video screen that shows climbing up a set of stairs we see with each step taken with a different footwear. Saddle shoes followed by heels followed by Chuck Taylors followed by a pair of wrestling shoes with kick pads.
Justin: The following contest has been decided it would be contested under Barbed Wire Massacre rules. Introducing first the challenger. From New York, New York... BELLA MADISON!
The roar comes over the sound system as we see Bella standing on top of the entrance. She stands wearing her wrestling gear along with a ring jacket with the hood up and starts making her way to the ring. Towards the end of the chorus she hops up on the ring side and climbs to the second rope, drops the hood of the jacket with a smirk and a wink as the song fades out.
Adams: These two women have been engaged in a pretty heated rivalry over the last couple of weeks. Now they're going to battle it out for that Bombshell Roulette Championship.
Simone: Bella is certainly sick and tired of being mocked for her shortcomings. Something that Victoria has continued to remind her of. Tonight, I think we're really going to see Bella at her best!
Bella found herself doing some of her last minute warm ups with her eyes glued to the entrance area. The arena lights dim as "Sweet Dreams" by Vin Jay plays, and Victoria Lyons appears onstage, and makes her slow and haunting walk to the ring.
Justin: And now introducing. From Charlotte, North Carolina. The Bombshell Roulette Champion, VICTORIA LYONS!
She glares at some of the fans, and even bites at a few as she passes by. As she gets in the ring, the lights go back on, as Victoria raises her arms in a V in the middle of the ring, as if looking for worship, and giving the camera a creepy smile. With the song fading out Victora found herself backing into her corner.
Simone: There is just something unsettling about Victoria.
Adams: I'd agree with you there. She's definitely not what the definition of a sane individual would be. That's what makes her so dangerous. Especially in this division.
DING DING DING!
As soon as the bell rang Bella found herself charging across the ring and leaping onto Victoria taking her down with a Lou Thez Press. Right away she sat herself up and began to reign down with a series of forearms right to the jaw of the champion. Victoria tried to protect herself, but Bella was able to land a punishing forearm to the jaw again and again. Simply lighting up the champion with everything she had.
Simone: My goodness! Bella is starting this thing off hot.
Adams: We know these two don't have any loved loss amongst them, but I didn't see it starting off like this!
Simone: And just think they haven't even started introducing the barbwire just yet!
On a final stiff forearm to the jaw. Bella found herself rolling right off of Victoria and then rolling right out of the ring. She wasted no time at all grabbing a piece of plywood that had barbed wire wrapped all around it. Lifting it up, Bella placed it across the barricade and on the ring apron to create a makeshift-like bridge. By the time she was finished she took notice of Victoria coming flying across the ring for a BASEBALL SL-NOOOO! Bella side stepped it causing Victoria to slide out of the ring.
She landed right on her feet, clearly a little confused. Of course she didn't have long to collect her barriers before Bella found herself leaping into the air and landing a DROPKICK square to the chest of Victoria sending her flying back into the steel barricade. A grunt of pain left the champion as she fell down to the floor. Bella then turned and grabbed a hold of the ring apron lifting it up looking under it. Seconds later Bella found herself dragging a Barbed Wire wrapped baseball bat!
Adams: Bella is wasting no time introducing the hardware for this match!
Simone: As much as we love the Roulette Division around here. This is the type of thing that makes me worry. There is so much that can go wrong with barbed wire!
Adams: If I were a betting man Belinda, these two women are betting on things going wrong with this element of the match being added in.
Lifting it into the air for the crowd to see with a smirk on her lips. There was a massive roar from the crowd, but all of the sudden Victoria clubs Bella from behind and forces her to drop the bat. Victoria showing that viscous side of herself. Unloading with clubs to the back of the neck of Bella to keep her down on one knee. Before grabbing a handful of Bella's blonde hair and then yanking her head forward while bringing her knee up and slamming it against Bella's nose. Sending her down the rest of the way onto the mats of the arena floor.
The crowd was starting to show their displeasure with boos aimed right at Victoria. The champion simply ignored the crowd as she grabbed Bella by her head and pulled her up to her feet. Then taking Bella and tossed her into the ring from under the bottom rope. Victoria found herself getting up on the apron as she locked eyes with Bella watching her trying to get up. Bella was still very dazed from having that knee smashed into her nose, but she still found herself standing up. Once she turned around Victoria pulled the ropes down to SPRINGBOARD into the air and drilled Bella with a DROPKICK of her own.
Bella hit the mat harshly and found herself folded up on her own neck, Victoria wasting no time at all to drop down and put Bella on her back to make the cover.
ONE!
TWO!
KICK OUT FROM BELLA!
Simone: Victoria is in firm control right now, but if there's anything we know about Bella is she isn't going to go down without a fight.
Adams: Oh course not. It's not in her nature. It wasn't in her mother's nature either. You are gonna have to make sure Bella is barely breathing to drive the fight out of her.
Simone: Well if there is anyone that could stomp the fight out of her. It's certainly Victoria. We have seen what she's capable of many times over now.
Right away Victoria was snatching the hair of Bella as she began to pull her up to her feet. Taking a look at where that barbed wire covered plywood was. She began to drag Bella over towards the ropes. Victoria stepped through the ropes to the apron and then yanked Bella through as well. With a couple of stiff blows of her forearm to the back of Bella's neck again. She quickly then lifted the contender up with something devious in mind.
Taking just a few steps over, Victoria had Bella in the position for "THE CLEANSI-NO!" Bella landed a couple of elbows to the side of the jaw of Victoria to free herself. Backing up some on the apron once she was out of Victoria's grip. However as soon as Victoria turned around Bella exploded and connected with a YAKUZA KICK straight to the face of Victoria. The force of the kick sent Victoria flying off the apron and landing back first onto the barbed wire platform!
Adams: Down goes Victoria!
Simone: Right onto that barbwire! I can't imagine how that must have felt!
Adams: All I'll say is I'll be surprised if she can get up after that. Every bit of her spine has to be on fire and the cuts she likely has. My goodness!
The state of shock that covered the expression on Victoria's face said it all. She was trying to pull herself up from the barbed wire, but it turned out Bella had other plans. She came running across the apron and then launched herself into the air with a MOONSAULT coming straight down on Victoria driving her into the barbed wire a little more as the plywood snapped in half and sent them tumbling to the floor. The excitement from the crowd could be heard as they cheered on Bella.
Sure enough Bella got to her feet right away as she looked over at Victoria lying there on the arena's floor. Her shoulder blades could be seen leaking with blood. As the shirt she had on started to also stain with blood in the middle of her back. Clearly the damage had been done. She grabbed a hold of the champion and pulled her up to her feet long enough to throw her back in the ring right under the bottom rope. Victoria rolling to the center of it.Right away Bella slid herself right into the ring and backed into the corner. Motioning and even taunting for Victoria to stand herself up. Despite the pain the champion was in, she began to push herself right up. She had no sooner than got to her knees when Bella rushed out of the corner and proceeded to drill Victoria with everything she had on a SHINING WIZARD causing the champion's eyes to roll back while hitting the mat in a prone position. Bella made that cover.
Simone: Bella really put some force on it with that knee of hers!
ONE!
Adams: Payback for the knee Victoria started this match off with if you ask me.
TWO!
Simone: These two really are out here aiming to hurt each other.
KICK OUT FROM VICTORIA!
Adams: Not surprised, this bad blood between the two has spoiled over for quite sometime now.
Simone: And it's going to keep spilling over as Victoria is still very much in this thing.
Bella is not letting Victoria get any kind of leverage by kicking out. She grabbed a hold of the woman and quickly applied a chinlock. Keeping her hands on the chin of Victoria as she pulled back while putting her knee right into the bloody back of the champion. If anything she was trying to drive that fight right out of the woman. About that time Victoria reached up and drove her long fingernails right into the eyes of Bella forcing her to break the hold.
The crowd booed heavily over the antics, but there was nothing Drew could do as it wasnt illegal in this match setting. Bella held her eyes as she stumbled away. Allowing Victoria the chance to get to her feet. Letting out a scream, she charged at Bella for a RUNNING KNEE STRI-NOOOOO! Bella ducked right under the woman's knee as Victoria found herself getting caught up on the top rope before falling to the outside and hitting the mat with force.
Adams: These two are having a hard time keeping this thing in the ring!
Bella found herself starting to walk towards the ropes. She found herself leaning through the middle as she shouted at Victoria to get up and get back in the ring. However, as soon as those words escaped her mouth. Bella was blasted with the BARBED WIRE BASEBALL BAT across the top of her head. She found herself falling back on the mat. Blood was instantly starting to trickle down from the top of her head and down her forehead.
Simone: Wow! Bella is busted wide open!
By that time Victoria had slid into the ring with a devious smirk covering her lips and a baseball bat still in hand. The very dazed and bloody Bella was acting on pure instinct as she fought up to her feet. Once she was up, that was Victoria's chance. She rushed forward and RAMMED that bat right into the skull of Bella for a second time taking the challenger off her feet. Right away she tossed the bat out of her hands and then dropped down to her knees to grab Bella and roll her over. Going for the cover and attempting to retain her championship.
ONE!
Adams: This very well could be it! Those were some major league baseball swings with that bat!
TWO!
Simone: I'm not saying I won't Bella to lose her, but even if she thinks she can fight on. Maybe just take the loss now. Live to fight another day!
TH-NO!
BELLA FORCES HER SHOULDER UP OFF THE MAT!
Adams: That is never going to happen Belinda. That's not the type of competitor Bella is.
Simone: I'm aware of that, but this is going to only get worse. With a wound like that on her head. She could lose a good amount of blood.
Adams: That's the price she's willing to pay to be a champion!
Victoria sat there on her knees with a disgusted look on her face. She reached down and grabbed a hold of Bella's head and lifted it up for the cameras to see. She was donning the crimson mask. Blood was just gushing down her face at that point. Victoria found herself keeping a hold of Bella's head as she got to a vertical stance with her. She landed a kick right to the gut of Bella forcing her to double over. Victoria then turned and went running towards the ropes.
She hit them with force and bounced right off them coming back. Connecting with an AXE KICK right in the middle of Bella's back and taking her right back down. Oddly enough this wasn't good enough for Victoria as she found herself dropping down to roll out of the ring. Dropping down to her knees when she was out of the ring she lifted up the ring apron. Searching under the ring for a couple of seconds before she found herself dragging out a barbed wire wrapped steel chair. Her lips curled into a smirk.
Victoria tossed the chair into the ring before looking under it again. Only for her to pull out what appeared to be loose barbed wire. Right away she began to wrap it around her arm as she rolled right back into the ring. At that point Bella was using the ropes to stand back up on her feet and turned herself around to see Victoria coming for her with that barbed wire wrapped arm. Victoria swinging for a CLOTHESLI-NOOO! Bella ducked right under the arm of the champion. The moment Victoria turned around Bella was right there to land a kick to the gut and took her down with a SPIKE DDT in the center of the ring leaving them both down for the time being.
Simone: Both ladies are down!
Adams: That was a smart DDT from Bella at this moment, but she has to be the first one to her feet.
Simone: A whole lot easier said than done when blood just keeps gushing from a wound.
Adams: Let's not forget Bella isn't the only one that's lost blood tonight.
Simone: No, but Victoria didn't have a baseball bat with barbed wire wrapped around it slammed into her head twice!
Inside the ring Bella rolled over and took notice of the loose barbed wire that came off Victoria's arm when she took her down. She reached out and grabbed a hold of it. Finding herself getting to one knee she took a hold of that barbed wire and began to wrap it tightly around her boot. As she was starting to stand up, Victoria clubbed her from behind and sent her falling into the ropes. Right away Victoria approached her and grabbed the arm of Bella.
Rather quickly she whipped her across the ring with an irish-whip. However, it was something that Bella had scouted as she leaped onto the ropes when she got close and then launched herself backwards connecting with "BEAUTIFUL DISASTER" driving that very boot with barbed wire wrapped around it into the face of the champion and putting Victoria on her back. Bella wasted no time at all in finding herself crawling over to Victoria to make the pin.
ONE!
Adams: My hats off to Bella! That was such an innovative way to use that barbed wire!
TWO!
Simone: You just know Victoria wasn't expecting a kick to the face like that!
THR-NO!
VICTORIA POWERS OUT!
Adams: And despite nearly having her face kicked in! Victoria is still fighting!
Simone: As much as people might not like her antics or the way she carries herself. The one thing that can be said is Victoria is one hell of a fighter.
Adams: Indeed she is. Now if we could convince her she's more of a fighter and not royalty. We might be onto something!
Bella looked a little frustrated that the woman was able to kick out, but she didn't let it consume her. As she was quick to roll out of the ring herself and now it was her time to look under the ring. The first thing she grabbed was a table. Before reaching back under the ring and pulling out a ladder. The crowd grew more excited with whatever Bella had in mind. She grabbed that ladder and lifted it up to slide it into the ring. Only to grab the table and do the exact same thing before sliding herself into the ring. It didn't take long at all for Bella to grab the legs of the table and pull them out.
As she stood up and then flipped the table over upright. However as soon as she flipped it over Victoria cracked her in the back with that BARBED WIRE WRAPPED CHAIR and caused Bella to fall back against the table in pain. Victoria then slammed the chair down in the mat and then grabbed a hold of Bella putting her in the perfect position before driving the challenger head first down onto the barbed wire chair with "THE CLEANSING" leaving Bella seemingly out cold. Victoria just took one look at her before making the cover and once again attempting to retain the championship.
Simone: She doesn't get up from that!
Adams: I do not like counting Bella out, but that was brutal!
ONE!
Adams: The way her head and neck just bounced off that chair!
Simone: Victoria made sure she drove the nail in the coffin!
TWO!
Simone: She did say she was doing whatever it took to leave with the championship! And it looks like that's a point proven.
Adams: Bella performed well, tonight just wasn't her night.
THRE-NOOOOOOOO!
BELLA KICKS OUT AGAIN!
Adams: We spoke too soon!
Simone: How? How is she still in it after that?!
Victoria seemed to have the same mindset. Pure shock covered her face once again, not understanding the fight that Bella had in her. Right away she forced herself up to her feet as she grabbed Bella by her hair and just launched her out of the ring to the floor. Seemingly buying herself some time. Victoria dragged that set up table off to the side. Only to grab a hold of that ladder Bella introduced moments before and started to set it up in the middle of the ring.
Little did she know on the outside of the ring Bella was back to reaching under the ring and searching for something. Back in the ring Victoria had that ladder set up and started to walk towards the ropes on the side of the ring where Bella was. She reached through the ropes and grabbed Bella by the hair, but right away Bella slapped her hand away and then proceeded to slam something over the top of Victoria's head causing Victoria to stumble back in the ring.
That's when it could be seen Bella slammed a barbed wire made crown over the top of the champion's head. To the point it was embedded into her skin and blood began to pour down Victoria's face now.
Simone: Is that a crown made out of barbed wire?!
Adams: It sure is!
Victoria's face becomes drenched in blood in seconds. Bella found herself sliding into the ring and exploding forward with a forearm smash that caused Victoria to fall back against the table. Wasting no time at all Bella grabbed the legs of Victoria and forced her onto the table in a prone position. The bloody Bella found herself pointing towards the ladder as the crowd began to cheer even louder. Rooting the woman on as Bella approached the ladder and began to climb it.
In a matter of seconds she found herself at the top of the ladder as she peered over her shoulder for a brief moment. Seeing that Victoria was still in place and hadn't bothered to move. That's when Bella launched herself from the top of the ladder. Crashing right on top of Victoria for "SECOND GEN" sending her through the table with a loud crunch. The way she just so happened to land on the champion after the table broke. Bella was in a pinning position on Victoria as Drew dropped down to make the count.
ONE!
Adams: We're about to crown a new Bombshell Roulette Champion!
TWO!
Simone: Bella said this year was going to be her year. She's not about to be denied!
THRE-NOOOOO!
VICTORIA KICKS OUT AT THE LAST SECOND!
Adams: She's denied for just a moment longer!
Simone: How does Victoria have it in her?! How was she able to dig that deep to kick out?!
Bella had rolled over out of the rumble of the table and just looked defeated. Her best shot was right then and there, but it wasn't enough. Bloody and all, she slammed her hands down against the mat in frustration before forcing herself back to her feet. She grabbed that very barbed wire wrapped chair that Victoria slammed against her back and picked it up. Taking a couple of steps towards the corner finding herself jamming it between the two turnbuckles.
On the other side of the ring the barbed wire crown wearing bloody Victoria was starting to crawl out from all that broken table mess. She was about to stand all the way up when Bella cut her off with a boot to the side of the head. Knocking Victoria right back down to her knees. She then quickly dropped her knee down across the head of Victoria slamming her face first into the mat. Bella very much making it clear she was going to stay in control at all costs.
Simone: Bella must be really cooking something up here. The planting of that chair and now just making sure she's wearing down Victoria a little more.
Adams: This goes back to what I said at the start of the night. Bella's only legitimate chance is staying on Victoria and not allowing her a moment to breathe.
In the ring Bella now grabbed a hold of the crown that she had beat onto the head of Victoria and yanked it off causing the champion to scream out in agony. As she tossed it out of the ring, she turned and grabbed the blood soaked hair of Victoria and pulled her up. Bella pointed right towards that chair causing the crowd to show excitement. As she began to rush forward with Victoria in her hand. Taking her and then RAMM-NOOO! Victoria counters at the last second and slams Bella head first into the chair.
Bella's head and face met that barbed wire as she fell back down to one knee. More of that blood could be seen leaking down onto the mat. Victoria with that second wind found herself sprinting to a corner and quickly climbing through the ropes to get to the top rope. By the time she perched herself up, Bella was getting back to her feet. Victoria took the chance to strike as she launched herself from the top rope zeroing in on Bella as she came down with "NOVA BURST"! Dropping Bella where she stood.
Victoria despite the pain she was in. Found herself quickly crawling over to Bella to make the cover. Hooking both the legs of the challenger.
Adams: Is that it?! Is that really all she wrote for Bella?!
Simone: With the performance she put on. My heart is saying no!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
DING DING DING!
Justin: Here is your winner and STILL the SCW Bombshell Roulette Champion, VIIIICCCTTTOOORRRIIIAAA LLLYYYYOOOONNNNS!
Once the hand came down for the third time. Victoria let out a scream of pure joy as she rolled over off of Bella and slammed her hands down on the mat.
Simone: Wow. Victoria retains here tonight!
Adams: And of course there is nothing to be ashamed of on Bella's end. She gave it her all tonight, just to fall a little short.
Simone: I don't know if that's how she's going to take it. Bella was really counting on herself to walk away with the win tonight.
Adams: Sometimes these things happen. Victoria has been quite the champion!
By that point Victoria had made it to her feet. Drew was walking over with her championship, as she rudely grabbed it out of his hands and demanded he raise her hand. Drew gripped the woman's wrist as she held the championship with the other hand holding it up. The shot of the blood soaked champion with that deranged smirk spread across her face was all it needed to be. Bella off in the corner looking defeated and riddled in pain. That's when the cameras found themselves cutting to the backstage area.
We switch to the backstage area as Miles is walking through the hallway with a smile as everyone is staring at him as Ollie the Cat is paying a visit.
Miles: Ok Ollie, I know you wanted to head to catering for more tuna but mate, I got work to do here as the host. We have this first blood match coming up and this place is already bedlam. I know Eddie has got to be hanging around here somewhere avoiding his cousin. I don't blame the man, she is more of a royal bitch than a royal.
Eddie is found just down the hallway, standing with one foot on the wall when he notices them approach.
Eddie: Hey! Looking for me?
He looks at Ollie.
Eddie: Is that Ollie Dorito?!
Miles: It is. He just popped up and paying a visit to all of us tonight.
Ollie: Me-OW!
Miles: I'm convinced that he is just hanging out because I had tuna in my salad and he seems to think I have more on me but who knows, he may be here as a representative of PWS: Legacy.
Eddie: They're a good crew over there. Cleo Phillips the World Champion is a close friend of mine, and they got my slightly more tolerable cousin there too. I hope the team is well Ollie. Good to see you. Anyway, I heard you needed me before I go beat Justin Smith….again.
Miles: Oh believe me I know. Such amazing talent there, it's why I put in a call for LJ. But that's there, this is here. Mate, it's like a given that you got this, go make the bastard bleed.
Miles offers a fist and Eddie gives it a bump on his own and he even offers it to Ollie who reaches out and gives his own version of a bump. Eddie heads out and Miles yells out.
Miles: Hopefully you can avoid Victoria on the way there.
Miles looks back at Ollie.
Miles: You wanna talk about the biggest bitch in SCW? It's that man's cousin. And no that one wasn't a complement.
Ollie: Me-OW
Miles: I know I shouldn't say that but mate, if you only knew!
The excitement of the London fans could be heard. A very clear sign they were all enjoying the show so far. With the cameras were right back around the ringside area. In specific they were right there at the commentators table with Belinda and Jason.
Simone: Ladies and gentlemen we're about to see a match that isn't for the light hearted.
Adams: You can say that again. Eddie Lyons and Justin Smith. It will only end when there is one man that is bleeding.
Simone: And... what in the world is that sound?
About that time the sound was a little louder as it sounded like water waves crashing together. Each one being louder than the next. About that time there was a little video being played for the fans in attendance to see.
That message kept flashing for a couple of seconds. The confused looks on the fans' faces could be seen with a small circle of the cameras. Their chatter started to take place amongst themselves, just as the video came to a close. Right away the cameras cut back over to the commentators table.
Adams: Uh, that was strange.
Simone: It sure was, Jason. I swear sometimes they just let all the wrong people in the production trucks outside.
Adams: We've seen some wild things over the years, but it still doesn't kill my curiosity, I wonder what that is all about.
Simone: I am sure when the time comes. We'll find out, but right now we have a match to focus on.
Adams: Indeed we do, let's go back down to the ring.
There was a camera cut from the commentator's table. Heading over towards the ring where the official Jacob Summers was climbing into the ring. Bringing everyone's attention to the next scheduled match of the night.
Justin: Our next match is a First Blood match between Eddie Lyons and Justin Smith. The rules are simple in that the winner is determined by who ends up bleeding first rather than the match being decided by pinfall or submission.
Simone: I have my sights on Justin Smith for the win in this match. With six inched of height over Eddie Lyons and twenty pounds more weight over Eddie he should be able to wear Eddie Lyons down quickly.
Adams: You know the farm saying goes that you should never count your chickens before the eggs hatch.
Justin: First to make his way to the ring, he hails from Baltimore, Maryland, and he stands in at five feet ten inches and two hundred thirty pounds, please give a great London, England, welcome for "UNBREAKABLE" EDDIE LYONS!!!
As CLOUDS by NF begins to play over the speakers a fog fills the entrance area. While the fog is intensifying we see Eddie Lyons appear in the middle, with his hoodie up and his arms folded. Eddie stands on the landing looking down at the ring for a short time. Then Eddie Lyons shoots a fist into the air as the fans favorably respond to his actions. Eddie then pulls his hoodie down and starts his walk down the ramp to the ring while tagging hands of the fans along the way. When Eddie reaches the arena floor he approaches the ring and walks up the steps and steps into the ring. Eddie then extends his arms to both sides and then he drops to a knee and punches the mat. After playing up the crowd Eddie Lyons moves to a corner to await the arrival of Justin Smith.
Adams: That was an exciting and powerful entrance by Eddie Lyons. The fans loved it and so did I.
Simone: *yawn* His entrance put me to sleep.
Justin: Next to make his way to the ring, he hails from Tarrytown, New York, and he stands in at six feet four inches and two hundred fifty pounds, please give a great London, England, welcome for JUSTIN SMITH!!!
The opening riffs of MADNESS by LILIAC hits the speakers as Justin "Tarrytown Tormenter" Smith comes out from the backstage area and onto the landing. He has a smug look on his face and most of the fans in the arena are booing him but Justin does not care what the fans think. Justin stands on the landing for a time to allow the fans to vent on him but he is enjoying their anger as it fuels him. Justin then takes off down the ramp toward the ring. As he makes his way down to the ring he glares at the fans who are disrespecting him. When Justin reaches the arena floor he walks to the wrestling ring and approaches the ring steps. He then walks up the ring steps and when he reaches the ring apron he walks along the ring apron then he ducks through the ropes and takes up a corner opposite of where Eddie Lyons is located while the fans continuing booing him.
Simone: That is how a confident wrestler should be when they make their entrance. They should be confident and brash and they do not care what the fans think of them.
Adams: I guess some wrestlers get a kick out of being disrespected by the fans.
Referee Jacob Summers motions for Eddie and Justin to join him in the center of the ring. He informs the two that this is a First Blood match where the winner is the wrestler who can make their opponent bleed first. Referee Summers further states that pinfalls and submissions and count-outs do not apply in this match. The only way to win is to make your opponent bleed first. He askes Justin and Eddie if they fully understand the rules of their match and both indicate they understand how the match will go. Referee Jacob Summers tells Eddie and Justin to return to their corners and to come out fighting when they hear the bell from the Timekeeper to officially start the match. As soon as both wrestlers have returned to their corners the Timekeeper rings the bell to officially start the match.
DING DING DING!
Adams: This match is officially under. MAKE HIM BLEED EDDIE!!!
Simone: Nice try but I say MAKE HIM BLEED JUSTIN!!!
This match is officially underway and Justin Smith wastes no time in charging at Eddie Lyons and Justin attempts to land several hard punches to the head and face of Eddie to get him to bleed early in the match. Eddie manages to deflect the majority of the punches thrown by Justin and Eddie retaliates by throwing numerous punches at Justin. Although both of them landed several blows neither is bleeding at this point in the match.
Simone: That was a good opening move by Justin Smith to get blows and punches landed on Eddie Lyons early in the match.
Adams: Although it is nice to get the initial volley of blows and punches landed early in the match the fact that Justin was nob able to get Eddie to bleed is a factor. It appears the early blows and punches landed by Smith had some effect but it also resulted with Lyons delivering several hard blows and punches on Smith.
Simone: With Justin Smith having a height advantage over Eddie Lyons of six inches and carrying thirty pounds more weight than Eddie brings to the match should work nicely in favor of Justin.
Adams: You seem to not be taking into consideration that being taller and heavier is not always an advantage for a wrestler over their opponent. I see with Eddie being lighter and shorter that he will have much more quickness around the ring to get things accomplished.
As the two wrestlers continue treading blows and punches they start to maneuver into one of the corners with Justin backed into the corner with Eddie on the attack and landing a lot of blows on Justin. As Eddie is going to land more blows on Justin we watch as Smith spins out of the corner and he is walking along the side of the ropes. Justin then turns to face Eddie who is approaching him and Smith manages to deflect most of the blows being thrown by Lyons. Eddie backs off a few steps and then he charges Justin and hits him with a hard clothesline that flips Justin over the ropes where he lands on the ring apron before landing on the arena floor.
Adams: Being on the outside of the ring will not benefit Justin Smith as I am sure Eddie Lyons will exit the ring and continue his attack on Justin.
Simone: It would be wise for Eddie to remain in the ring as Justin appears to be upset that Eddie flipped him out of the ring onto the arena floor.
Justin is up on his feet and he maneuvers over to the barricades that separate the fans from being too close to ring. Our attention is returned to the ring to see Eddie Lyons has excited the ring and he is headed to where Justin is located. Referee Summers also exits the ring to remain close to the action. While Smith is walking along the barricade he inadvertently bumps into a food vendor who is selling hotdogs and the food vendor lost control of his hotdogs and condiments dropping hot dogs, mustard, and ketchup on the floor. As Eddie Lyons gets closer to Justin Smith we see Justin drop to the arena floor and he picks up several hotdogs with ketchup on them. As Eddie Lyons is about to go on the attack on Justin Smith again Justin leaps to his feet and he slams the ketchup laden hotdogs into side of the head and the face of Eddie. Seeing the ketchup all over the face and head of Eddie we see Justin motioning to Referee Jacob Sommers to make a call on the "BLEEDING" coming from Eddie.
Adams: I have seen some underhanded tactics in my days as a wrestling announcer but claiming your opponent is bleeding in a First Blood match after causing ketchup to splatter on their face and head goes beyond believable.
Simone: It looks like blood to me. Let us see what Referee Summers is going to do.
Referee Summers approaches Eddie Lyons and he looks him over. Since he cannot tell if Lyons is cut and bleeding or not Referee Summers pulls a towel out of his pocket and he wipes the face and head of Eddie Lyons. After Referee Summers has wiped the head and face of Eddie Lyons, and he does not see any cuts or scratches causing what can be called "BLEEDING" Referee Summers tells Justin Smith that Eddie Lyons is not cut and not bleeding so the match will continues. Referee Summers reprimands Justin for trying to get a win by ketchup and then Referee Summers wipes all the ketchup off of Justin Smith so now both wrestlers are free of ketchup. Summers then instructs Eddie ad Justin to return inside the ring and for them to try to remain inside the ring for the remainder of the match. The two start walking toward the ring while Referee Jacob Summers walks behind them following them to the ring.
Simone: I wish the Referee would have called the match with Justin as the winner.
Adams: So let me get this straight. You wanted the Referee to call a first blood loss on Eddie Lyons due to having ketchup on his face instead of staying within the rules? What has gotten into you?
Simone: I am not going to try to explain it to you. Just pay attention to the match.
Eddie Lyons and Justin Smith climb the ring steps and they are standing on the ring apron with Eddie on one side of the ring post and Justin on the other side. Referee Summers steps through the ropes and he tells Lyons and Smith to get into the ring and continue the action in the match. The two enter the ring and face off.
Adams: I hope Eddie will make quick work of Justin and put this match in the record books.
Simone: Keep dreaming Jason.
Referee Summers motions for Eddie and Justin to go at it and they start trading blows again. Both of them are trying to land punches and blows to the face and head of the other as it is likely that blows and punches to that part of their body is likely to produce cuts and bleeding quickly. Neither wrestler is backing down and the blows and punches are flying fast and hard. Justin wraps his arms around the body of Eddie and drives him back into the corner where he releases the hold and starts landing punches again to the face and head of Lyons. Eddie drops to the mat and comes up with his arm to the groin on Justin causing Smith to grab his groin and drop to his knees groaning loudly.
Adams: Every male in the arena and watching on television felt that blow.
Simone: Men are such weaklings when it comes to a blow to the groin. Us women can take a hard shot like that and we keep moving forward.
Referee Jacob Summers continues watching the two wrestlers for the first sign of bleeding. While Justin is struggling to get off his knees we watch Eddie run to the ropes and rebound off landing a running knee kick to the head of Justin. This causes Smith to topple to the side. Eddie drops to his knees and starts landing hard blows and punches to the face and head of Justin while at the same time clawing at the face and head of Justin to get him to start bleeding. Seeing that welts are rising up on the face and head of Justin we see Eddie get to his feet and he drags Justin to his feet. Lyons then places Smith in a hold signifying he is going to execute the Lyons Roar DDT on Justin and he then quickly drops Justin to the mat causing the face of Smith to start bleeding. Referee Jacob Summers steps in, sees that Justin is bleeding, and he calls for the bell.
DING DING DING!
Adams: I told you so Belinda.
Simone: Grrr!!!
Eddie Lyons gets to his feet and he stands next to Referee Summers.
Justin: The official decision of Referee Summers in this match is the winner, by making his opponent bleed first, is UNBREAKABLE EDDIE LYONS!!!
After Referee Summers raises the hand of Eddie Lyons for the win we watch as Eddie walks over to Justin to check if he is okay. Smith states that he is okay and that he will be able to exit the ring on his own. Eddie Lyons then exits the ring and makes his way to to the backstage area receiving much adoration from the crowd. After Lyons is in the backstage area Justin Smith exits the ring and disappears into the backstage area.
Miles makes his way through the gorilla position and you can tell he is pumped up for tonight as he claps his hands loudly.
Miles: It's gonna be a great night, mates! Great fuckin night!
He passes by a few others and greets them along the way before he hears a very loud-
"ME-OW!!!"
That stops Miles in his tracks and he looks over and sees an orange tabby cat with a white face and what can only be described as orange Dorito chip on his nose
Miles: Well I'll be damn, Ollie Dorito! What are you doin' here, bruv?
Miles sits down and offers his hand to Ollie to takes it.
Ollie: Me-OW
Miles: Mate, I hear ya, this seems to be the event not to miss. You here on Legacy business?
Ollie glares but Miles reaches into his shirt pocket and produces a treat and gives it to Ollie.
Ollie: Oowwww
Miles: Hey, I'm happy to help. Tell ya what, you can tag along with me for the majority of the night. I'll be your own personal chauffeur for it? Cool?
Miles offers his hand again, with a treat inside of course, and Ollie bops it with his paw. Miles opens it up and gives it to him and then pats his shoulder and Ollie jumps up.
Miles: Ms. Thang may never forgive me for this but I gotchu, mate.
Ollie: Owww.
Miles: Alright, lets go.
Dawn Barnes stands inside of the ring, ready to officiate the upcoming match at Violent Conduct X!
Justin: The following contest is the Triple Threat Submissions Only match! Introducing first...!
I Wanna Dance With Somebody by Whitney Houston begins to blast all across the speakers and as it does we are able to see Ruby Steele emerging from the curtain. She is clad in a sparkling ruby glow in the dark jacket. She isn't alone as her wife Courtney Pierce emerges through the curtain with her. The jacket shines brightly and she excitedly sprints to the ring slapping the hands of the roaring fans. She does some cartwheels before finishing up with one massive backflip. She giggles before she slowly slides into the ring. She nips up to her feet and blows kisses to the crowd before she bounces about waiting for the match to begin. Meanwhile Courtney stands out of the ring grabbing Ruby's jacket as she waits for her wife to wrestle.
Justin: From London, England! Prudence Pierce!
The open beats to "Happy" by Pharrell Williams starts to play. The line 'Clap along if you know that happiness is the truth' appears on the screen and the fans start to clap along to the music. They clap alone for a few moments, waiting for who they know is about to walk through the curtain.
After the music plays for some time, Bobbie Dahl bursts through the curtains, clapping along with the music and the fans, with the Bombshell Roulette title draped over her shoulder. She is joined by Artie at her side as they both smile and get amped up along with the fans.
Justin: Accompanied to the ring by Artie! Bobbie Dahl!
Bobbie and Artie then start making their way to the ring, high fiving fans along the way. Once to the ring, Artie walks up the steps first, and sits on the second rope, holding it open for his lady. She steps through the ropes then holds the Bombshell Roulette Championship up high, getting the fans to cheer louder for her as she stands in the middle of the ring. Artie exits the ring a few moments later, taking his place on the outside to support his wife.
Justin: And finally...!
Suddenly, the arena lights turn off and the crowd is hyped up for what was in store. As the opening of "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me" by U2 blares across the PA system, the mood of the crowd changes instantly and the arena is under the subtle glowing of the lights. As the lyrics finally kick in, a figure emerges; the highlight of their attire is being under the illusion. Mercedes Vargas stops short of the entrance ramp, hands on waist, and overlooking the crowd.
Justin: Making her way to the ring (or depending on where Mercedes is when the ring announcer begins the introduction, Coming down the aisle, About to enter the ring, or Currently in the ring), from Buenos Aires, Argentina, weighing in at 125 pounds, MERCEEEEEDEEEES VAAAARGAAAAS!
Cheers, boos and catcalls soon greet her. Oblivious and yet satisfied with their reaction for several seconds, she flips her long hair, then makes her way to the ring. As she goes up the steps and walks to the end of the ring apron, she climbs to the turnbuckle, then turns her head back as the camera shows her determined expression-perhaps a message that her opponent will be in for a tough fight. Mercedes vaults into the ring and walks over to the opposite corner where she relaxes along the corner ropes.
Dawn then calls for the bell to begin the match!
DING DING DING!
The bell has rang for this triple threat submission only match between three top Bombshells has begun, the two smaller women in Vargaz and Pierce look at each other before turning their attention towards the more powerful individual in Bobbie Dahl.
Adams: I got to say Belinda, if Vargaz and Pierce wants a shot at winning this one. They got to take out Bobbie
Simone: I think that their chances increase significantly Jason, but I'm sure that Bobbie will have a say in that as well.
The two women spread up, stalking Bobbie from left and right as she is trying to focus on either women before deciding that she will pick one bone to pick before turning towards the other as she storms in on Pierce. Overpowering her as to corner her in a neutral corner with massive forearm shots in the midsection as we see Mercedes jump on her back in an attempt to stop her.
Adams: That didn't work as much as Mercedes was hoping for!!!
We see Mercedes her eyes bulge out, realizing that even though her arm is wrapped tight around the neck of Bobbie as Dahl continues to drive her massive forearm in the midsection of Pierce that drives the oxygen out of her lungs. Bobbie then backs off, grabs hold of the hair of Mercedes and tosses her onto the canvas with force, landing on her backside before eating a running boot in the face by the powerhouse as she then turns her attention towards Pierce once again, who jumps off the turnbuckles with a Double Axhandle but gets caught by Bobbie in a massive bearhug.
Simone: Uh oh!! That's not the place where you want to be in with Bobbie!!!
Adams: Please no!!!
Pierce is squirming in the tight grip from Bobbie, trying to gain some freedom by pushing her arms between the massive arms of Bobbie, but fails as Bobbie starts to swing her from left to right while remaining hanging in the air. This only gets broken up just at the moment that Mercedes manages to execute a Shot Block in the back of Bobbie's knee that causes Bobbie to drop down and releases her tight grip on Pierce.
Simone: This is an opening that both women should take advantage of!!!
And indeed, we see Mercedes grab hold of the leg and starts to kick into the back of her knee while Pierce has her hands wrapped around of the throat of Bobbie in an attempt to choke her out. Bobbie tries to kick Mercedes away by using her massive leg strength, only causes Mercedes to bounce off the ropes and dropkicks the painful knee as Bobbie was too distracted by tossing Pierce off of her.
Adams: Good grief!! These two are just like sharks who have smelled blood!!!
Pierce and Mercedes drag Bobbie towards the ring post, slide out of the ring underneath the bottom rope and wrap both legs around the ring post before Mercedes sets herself up for a Figure Four Leglock that causes Bobbi to sit up in agonizing pain, instinctively trying to reach towards Mercedes in an attempt to break the hold but unfortunately she is out of the reach. In the meantime we see Pierce climb the ring apron near Bobbie, jumps over the top rope and connects with a Leg across the throat that drops Bobbie hard on the canvas before locking Bobbie in a Dragon Sleeper submission hold as now Bobbie is locked in two different submission holds.
Simone: This is amazing!! Both women are trying to make Bobbie submit!!!
Adams: I just wonder Belinda, IF Bobbie decides to submit… who gets the win??
Dawn Barnes cannot do anything except watch the what is transpiring in the ring as he is only there to register someone submitting or passing out to a submission hold. We see Bobbie desperately trying to batter away at the head of Pierce in an attempt to at least get her off of her, but Pierce has the hold locked in tight as we see Bobbie slowly start to fade due to the impact of the two wrestling holds being locked in on her.
We see Mercedes finally letting go off the hold as she gets up to her feet, noticing the fact that Bobbie is being locked in tight by Pierce as she climbs the ropes and starts to jump off the ropes with an Elbow Drop off the top rope on top of Pierce. This causes her to relinquish the Dragon sleeper as Mercedes follows it up by picking her up and whips her into the ropes before going for a Dropkick as Pierce catches both legs, causing Mercedes to drop down to the canvas hard as Pierce spins her around and locks her into a Cloverleaf submission hold in the middle of the ring.
Adams: Pierce got the veteran in the middle of the ring!!!
Simone: Can Mercedes escape the hold?? Or will she submit??!!!
Adams: And will Bobbie able to get back into this one??!!!
Bobbie starts to grab the ropes after taken a few deep breaths and slowly starts to pull her back to her feet. She notices the two women in the middle of the ring as Pierce has her back turned towards her while Mercedes looks up and swallows as she sees Bobbie emerging towards them. Starting to claw away at the canvas, desperately trying to find a way to get out of the predicament as Bobbie drops a leg across the back of Mercedes her neck as that completely levels her. Bobbie then gets up and clotheslines Pierce down, grabs her by the head and then locks her into a Camel Clutch submission hold as she attempts to block out the painful knee that has been the target of Mercedes attack as she is still feeling the pain running through the painful leg.
Dawn is asking whether Pierce wishes to submit to the hold, but Pierce refuses to submit as she digs her nails into the painful knee of Bobbie who as an answer to the desperate method of Pierce answers by pulling the head even further towards her, causing her upper body to arch in a fashion that a human body shouldn't bent as Pierce lets out an painful scream that sounds like music in the ears of Bobbie while believing that she has got the match in the bag.
Adams: Good Lord!! Just tap out!!!
Simone: I know that Pierce is a fighting individual!! But I got to agree with you Jason!! How much more can someone take??!!!
Dawn is asking again and again if Pierce wants to submit, but the youngster is still trrying to fight the pain as she tries to reach for the ropes to no avail. Her hand is slowly lifting towards the massive arms of Bobbie as a sign that she is about to tap out, only to have the hold being broken up by Mercedes Vargaz that had slid back into the ring after grabbing a chair from the outside and blasts it across the painful knee of Bobbie. This causes Bobbie to scream out in agonizing pain while letting go of the Camel Clutch on Pierce. We see Mercedes dispose of Pierce as she dumps her out of the ring and turns her attention back to Bobbie. She then locks both legs in a Figure Four Leg Lock with the focus locked upon the painful knee as Dawn screams at Bobbie whether she wants to submit or not as Bobbie starts to scream in agony while reaching for anything to grab in order to break the hold.
Simone: Bobbie can't last long!!!
Bobbie tries to grab hold of the chair that is beside them, only for Mercedes to push it aside and increases the tightness of the hold on the painful leg, this causes Bobbie to quickly pound her massive arm on the canvas as a sign that she wants to submit. This causes Dawn to call for the bell as Mercedes has won this Submission Only Match
DING DING DING!
Justin: The winner of the match by submission!! Mercedes Vargaz!!!!!!!
Mercedes lets go off the hold, raising her arm in the air as the veteran has overcome two other women in order to walk out victorious.
The scene opens backstage where we see Harper and Cassie chilling out with Josh.
Harper: So, ready for tonight?
Cassie: I'd feel better if it was a straight up Roulette Rules Match but the Elimination Tables Match will be fun at least.
Joshua: My offer to manage you is still there Cass.
Cassie: I know, I just wanna see how tonight goes for me.
Cassie says as she brushes some hair over her shoulder.
Cassie: Especially with Luna and Alexandra serving as two of my opponents, Seleana? She stayed quiet throughout the hype period so I guess she doesn't care?
Joshua: Seems like it, either way we're rooting for you Cass.
Cassie: Thanks.
Cassie walks off to get ready for her match as the scene fades.
The feed cuts back to the ring, where Justin Decent is standing at the center. However, all around him are tables that have been set up for the following contest. Three of the six corners of the ring already have tables propped up against them. The outside of the ring has several tables already set up alongside the aprons. As each woman comes down the aisle to the ring, they will pass several extra tables should they be required, and the fans are all already on their feet waiting for the carnage to begin.
Justin: The following contest is the Fatal-Fourway Elimination Tables match for the #! Contendership to the Bombshell Roulette Championship!
The opening riff of "Wolf Within" hits the speakers and once the lyrics kick in Cassie Wolfe emerges from the back excited to start the match, with her hands on her leather jacket's sides the rookie wrestler turns her back to the crowd.
Justin: Introducing first, from Greenock, South Australia and now residing in Las Vegas, Nevada, "The Rebel Princess" Cassie Wolfe!
When her name is announced Cassie spins around flashing the metal horns sign with her left hand and clapping fans hands with the other, when she reaches the ring Cassie jumps onto the apron before giving her hair a full flip and removing her jacket to give to a stagehand, she then jumps over the top rope and into the ring, rolling to her knees and basking in the moment.
Adams: Cassie Wolfe doesn't look intimidated by the tables, but is she perhaps overconfident?
Simone: Three of these women will be going through at least one table in short order. I don't know if any of them should be confident.
Justin: ….and her first opponent…
The arena fades to black as the screen lights up and we are treated to an old school movie countdown image.
5
4
3
Suddenly the countdown is stopped by claws slashing through the image and a cat's roar sounds through the arena.
Justin: From Los Angeles, California, Seleana Zdunich!!!
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: ….and next….
The lights go down and "Mine" by Halestorm starts to play. The arena is filled with Red and lights and fog. The Silhouette of Alexandra can be seen at the top of the ramp. She poses on the top of the ramp and as the beat drops, she starts to make her way down the ramp, towards the ring. Stopping halfway down the ramp, she stops looking out over the crowd, before continuing on. She smirks seeing some of the signs people made, a cocky smirk crosses her face.
Justin: From DALLAS, TX.. ALEXANDRA CALAWAY!!!!!"
Finishing her walk down the ramp, she climbs onto the ring apron and up onto the turnbuckle. She slips into the ring and poses on the ropes, leaning forward on the ropes, sometimes talking shit with people in front row. She watches up the ramp, messing with her hair as she waits for her final opponent.
Justin: …and finally…
The lights begin to dull, going to almost complete black. The opening chime, a single spotlight appearing above Luna Pasilno.
Justin: …from New Orleans, Louisiana, she is "The Masochist: Luna Pasilno!!!!
With a large smile plastered across her face, hands raising to her sides, palms downwards, hands bent somewhat. "'Cause I'm a King," plays out as blue lights begin to pulse across the arena in time with the music. Her hands thrust down rapidly, striding forth. Rolling her hips heavily with each measured and purposeful step. The crowd roaring with boos and dissent, vitriol flowing from them. She comes to a stop at the base of the ramp, eyes fixed on the three women in the center of the ring.
She bends at the knee slightly, turning side on and throwing her head back. One hand pressing the back of her wrist against her head, hand hanging flaccidly, the other still resting on her hip. "There is a god, and she is me," she bounces up slightly, bringing her hand from her hip up in full flourish and 'shows herself off', taking a few quick steps before swinging one leg up onto the apron. Hooking her hands, she pulls herself up and under, bringing the other leg up in a momentary split as she slides beneath the bottom rope. She sits and turns, pulling herself up with the ropes, and slowly backing into the middle of the ring. Shimmying her jacket off in the process.
Adams: Everyone has arrived for the party! Let the madness begin!
Simone: This one should certainly live up to this Supercard's namesake!
DING DING DING!
Alexandra Calaway jumps before the third bell, and sprints across the ring towards Luna. However, the former champion has it scouted, and leapfrogs her. Alexandra has to slam on the brakes to avoid putting herself through the table leaning against the turnbuckles, but Luna takes off across the ring the moment her feet touch the mat. Seleana and Cassie seem a fraction of a second away from locking up with one another when they are both blindsided by simultaneous single-leg dropkicks. Seleana gets hit in the shoulder, which forces her to fall sideways to the mat, but Cassie gets hit perfectly in the cheekbone causing her to flip in a near full rotation before crashing down hard.
Adams: We have fireworks right from the start! Somebody better check on Cassie.
Simone: Luna shouldn't have taken her eyes off of Alexandra though! She has said this thing between them is personal. The Bombshell Roulette Contendership is a secondary thought at this point.
Luna rolls backwards and starts to get up to her feet, but Alexandra has already closed the gap between them. She catches Luna with a stiff forearm to the back of her head, and when "The Masochist" turns to her, she eats a spin kick to the midsection before Alexandra tries setting her up for a powerbomb.
Adams: Alexandra looking for Apocalypse already?
Alexandra powers her opponent up into the air and onto her shoulders. She adjusts her grip, but that is the opening that Luna needed to rain down a couple of harsh right hands. Alexandra tries to power her up quickly to stop the assault, but her grip slips and Luna is able to land on her feet back-to-back with her adversary. Luna reaches back over her shoulder to lock her arms around Alexandra's neck before dropping down to her knees with a neckbreaker. As Alexandra snaps forward, Seleana leaps into the air and takes her over with a hurricanrana. The momentum sends Alexandra rolling under the bottom rope and out to the floor outside the ring.
Simone: Alexandra went for it all, but ending up on the floor might actually be the safest place for her at the moment.
Adams: The smart play would be letting her opponents all take each other out before cleaning up the scraps at the end.
Simone: Something tells me she wants too big of a piece of Luna for that.
Back in the ring, Seleana doesn't get to celebrate her momentum at all as Luna is back to her feet. She turns her attention to Seleana, and chop-blocks her right knee out from under her causing her to fall back to the mat. When Seleana goes to reach at her leg on the ground, Luna mounts her and hits her with a flurry of lefts and rights before Cassie inadvertently comes to the rescue by using her body as a cannonball to wipe out Luna. The Sin CIty newcomer sees both women down in the ring, but Alexandra picking herself up with the help of the apron outside. With big ideas, Cassie runs to the opposite side of the ring, and rebounds off of the ropes towards Alexandra. She leaps through the middle and bottom rope, and tackles Alexandra to the ground with a suicide dive that brings the entire crowd to their feet.
Adams: Cassie isn't going to let Alexandra catch a break, even for a second.
Simone: It may have been smarter to keep the heat on Luna though, because here she comes again!
Luna seems enraged that her assault on Seleana was interrupted, and not to be outdone by Cassie, as soon as "The Rebel Princess" leaves the ring, Luna gets up and runs the ropes herself. However, instead of diving through the ropes, she leaps, planting one foot on the middle turnbuckle closest to the two women on the outside. She propels herself up onto the top rope she flips backwards, looking to take out the rising Cassie Wolfe and Alexandra Calaway, but at the last possible moment, Alexandra pushes Cassie into it and falls backwards to avoid contact.
Adams: Luna with a huge shooting star to the outside!
Simone: Because of Alexandra's push, Luna may have just squashed Cassie on the outside!
Seleana recovers from the pummeling that she was getting from Luna in enough time to see all of the women down on the outside of the ring. Thinking that it is her turn to fly, she also runs the ropes and when she approaches the side closest to the women, grabs the top rope and flips herself over it, looking for a senton on the outside. Alexandra spots her early on though, and is there to catch her on her shoulders when she slingshots herself over the ropes. She almost loses her balance while she turns, but manages to take two full steps before powering Seleana up into the air and bringing her down through one of the ringside tables on the adjacent side of the ring.
Adams: Apocalypse through the table!
Justin: Seleana Zdunich has been eliminated!
The fans at ringside seemed absolutely shocked by the first elimination of the night, especially after Alexandra had taken turns being everyone's punching bag in the early stages. The former Bombshell Roulette Champion seems like she is done playing around though. She doesn't celebrate the elimination, simply shaking her head at Seleana before turning her attention back to Luna who was throwing strikes with Cassie as the two women attempted to get back to their feet. Luna appears to get the upper hand with slightly more viciousness behind each of her strikes, but Alexandra ends that by taking her back down to the floor with a running forearm smash. Cassie was on the verge of falling back to the ground, but Alexandra helps her stay on her feet by shoving her back into the barricade. As Cassie's back bows from the impact, Alexandra follows-up with a uppercut before irish-whipping her back towards the ring. Cassie rolls under the bottom rope and towards the center of the ring in an attempt to create some space and regain her wits, but luckily Luna is able to give her an assist. As Alexandra attempts to follow Cassie back into the ring, Luna gets up and drives Alexandra's back into the apron with a spear and then follows it up with a second. When Alexandra starts to slump to the floor, Luna throws a series of right hands that land unprotected as the fans shower her with boos. She seems to enjoy their displeasure, and then eyes Cassie attempting to pick herself up in the ring with a kind of sick satisfaction. Luna slides back in with a smug smirk on her face, but Alexandra is able to summon enough strength to reach out and grab her by her ankle as she slides under the bottom rope. Luna tries to kick herself free, but Cassie already has her lined up. The newcomer gets a running start, and returns the gnarly kick that Luna gave her earlier in the night with a soccer-style punt that nearly takes Luna's head off of her shoulders.
Adams: GOOOOOOALLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!
Simone: I bet Luna regrets stopping Alexandra from keeping the pressure on Cassie now!
The fans erupt with cheers that drowned out whatever it was the Adams said in response, but now with all three women down, suspense began to build on who would be able to seize momentum. Cassie falls against the turnbuckles, as surprised as anyone as she looks down at Luna's lifeless body. Alexandra hoists herself up onto the apron with the help of the bottom rope, and slides back into the ring giving "The Rebel Princess" another target. Cassie looks at Luna, and then back to Alexandra, as the fans start to chant "YES!". She nods, and lines Alexandra up for the same kick that leveled Luna, and takes off at a sprint. She extends her leg to kick, but Alexandra narrowly manages to avoid contact. Cassie halts her momentum just short of the table in the corner, causing the second near-miss of the night. However, she still manages to catch an attempted spin kick by Alexandra. Trapping her leg, Cassie takes Alexandra over with a dragon screw before getting quickly back to her feet. She runs the length of the ring for momentum once again, and as Alexandra sits up off of the mat, Cassie falls backwards and extends a kick that hits perfectly this time around.
Adams: The Greenest Wizard!
Cassie gets up triumphantly, and raises a hand to the crowd who give her the biggest ovation of her Sin City tenure for the series of moves that granted her control of this match. However, her attention is quickly brought back to the match as Luna pops up from the ground and sprints to her. She uses the slumped over Alexandra as a launching point, and leaps at "The Rebel Princess". Cassie doesn't have time to react before catching two knees to the chest that drive her backwards. Luna pops her hips to propel Cassie back into the table with a meteora. Luna hits the mat hard, but Cassie crashes through the table, which breaks and folds around her.
Justin: Cassie Wolfe has been eliminated!
Simone: We thought Luna was knocked out from that kick from Cassie, but she is back from the dead and retaking control of this match!
Instead of staying on offense, Luna turns to the one remaining table in the ring, and pulls it free from the turnbuckle. She extends the legs and flips it right side up so that it is parallel to the ring ropes before looking back at the woman she has had several intense battles with. Luna smiles, with bad intentions on her mind as she reaches down and grabs a handful of Alexandra's hair.
Adams: Alexandra said it herself! This match was going to come down to her and Luna, and they are the last two women standing!
Simone: Well… one of them is standing.
Adams: She should be careful what she asks for because here comes Luna!
Alexandra responds to the yanking on her hair by sending a kick at Luna that makes contact with her shoulder and forces her to lose her grip. Alexandra pushes herself up off of the mat and the two women come together, each throwing a flurry of strikes that neither is making any attempt to block. They genuinely seem to be attempting to tear each other apart in the center of the ring, and there is nothing that Jasmine St. John can do about it until one of the two of them goes through a table. The tables turn with Luna opens her hand for one of the strikes, and lands an insulting slap to Alexandra's cheek, which seems to infuriate her even further. Luna makes no attempt to hide her smile, but Alexandra responds by going low with a kick to her kneecap that takes her off-balance. Alexandra whips Luna across the ring, and then sets up with her back to the table that Luna herself set up. When Luna rebounds, Alexandra leans down and flips her opponent into the air, looking for a back body drop. However, instead of breaking through the table, Luna is able to control her body to twist in the air. She plants her feet on the table directly above one set of the legs, and by some miracle it doesn't break.
Simone: That's not something you see everyday!
Adams: There's no way! The tables always break!
The gasp from the fans is audible, especially when paired with the fact that Alexandra was prepared to hear her foe crash and burn. Alexandra turns around to see Luna standing on the table, but has no time to react before "The Masochist" leaps off and plants her knee into Alexandra's chest just as she had done with Cassie Wolfe. Alexandra doesn't go down so easily though. As she showed when she caught Seleana earlier in the match, she has the power to stop that kind of momentum. However, this time she isn't quite so firmly on her feet. She stumbles, and instead of being able to fully turn with Luna's knees in her chest, the duo fall sideways, and both end up crashing through the table.
Simone: Luna was able to drive her down through the table after all!
Adams: Are you crazy? That was a definite reversal by Alexandra!
Jasmine St. John seems just as confused as everyone else in the arena. She appears to replay the events mentally before checking on both women. When she gets back up, it doesn't seem like she is any closer to making a decision, and eventually shrugs her shoulders at the camera. Justin gets up from his seat prepared to make the announcement once the official makes her decision, but Jasmine waves him off. When he pushes for more information, she yells something at him that the cameras don't quite make out. The fans in the arena break into a "LET THEM FIGHT!" making it a whole lot harder for everyone at ringside to hear what is going on but eventually Justin clears everything up.
Justin: As both women went through the table simultaneously, there was no elimination!
The crowd erupts once again, not really in support of either of the women but more for the idea that this match will continue for at least one more table. Jasmine St. John goes to work disposing of the broken bits of table to uncover both of the women. Alexandra is the first to start moving, and moves herself away from the wreckage and towards the center of the ring. Luna unfolds herself, and reaches over to the bottom rope before starting to push herself back to her feet. Jasmine starts dumping some of the bigger bits of the table out the ring, but Luna pulls a piece away from her and uses it to prop herself up and get to her feet. Once she is up, she waits on Alexandra to turn around before swinging the piece of the table like it is a chair. Alexandra gets her arms up in time, and luckily the piece of the table breaks in Luna's hands before it does any real damage. Alexandra sends a straight kick to Luna's midsection that makes her drop both of the broken pieces of table before running forward and driving a knee into the side of her head.
Simone: V-Trigger!
Alexandra is not done though. Luna keeps her hand on the middle rope, and refuses to fall back down to the mat. She smirks defiantly in Alexandra's direction, taunting her that she was going to have to do better than that.
Adams: Hit her again!
In response, Alexandra backs up again and goes for a second one, but this time Luna dips herself under the knee, grabs Alexandra's planted leg, and lifts her with all of the energy that she can summon. She dumps her opponent over the top rope, and with no hope to hold on, Alexandra crashes through the table below and Luna watches.
Justin: Alexandra Calaway has been eliminated!
DING DING DING!
Justin: Here is your winner and NEW #1 Contender to the Bombshell Roulette Championship, Luna Pasilno!!!!!!
Luna pulls herself back up to her feet, looking at the carnage all around the ring. Her opponents are all still down and being attended to by the medical team, but Luna doesn't seem concerned. She seems pleased with how the night has turned out and allows Jasmine St. John to raise her arm in victory before pulling it away viciously and celebrating on her own.
Simone: She did it! Luna managed to hold on and pull out the victory here tonight!
Adams: "The Masochist" once again has the Bombshell Roulette Championship in her sights, and after a match like this, I don't even want to think about what she is willing to do in order to rip that championship away from Victoria's hands.
Simone: Well after her hard fought match earlier in the night, I am sure that the coming battle with Luna is the last thing on her mind.
We head back once again to the backstage area as we see Carter working on his stretching, solidly preparing for his ladder match against his brother-in-law. We hear a quick knock.
Miles: Just your loving husband and a guest.
Carter stands up and looks back.
HBCarter: As long as it's not your brother or Ally, come in I guess.
We hear the door open and Miles steps in with Ollie still on his shoulder.
Miles: You guess? Wow, have we been married for 5 years already and I slept through it?
Carter turns around and is speechless at the sight of his husband hanging out with the orange tabby.
HBCarter: Did you get us another cat?
Miles: Him? Naaah, Ollie is his own owner. Ollie, this is my husband and current SCW Internet Champ, Helluva Bottom Carter. Carter, this is wrestling legend, Ollie Dorito.
HBCarter: Legend?
Miles: Well, in certain terms.
Miles laughs and Carter isn't laughing so Miles looks back at Ollie.
Miles: Mind giving us a mo?
Ollie: ow.
And Ollie jumps off his shoulders to the floor and Miles gives Carter that "What's wrong" look.
Miles: Alright you, spill.
HBCarter: I'm fine, babe. I'm just trying to prepare myself properly.
Miles: Babe, you are ready. You know LJ is going to bring it but you have beaten some amazing people in your time that LJ can only dream about. Listen, I know I told you that I wasn't going to get into the middle of it and that still stands but you know damn well that I believe in you.
HBCarter: I know you do. Just still self-conscious.
Miles: Well stop it, love. These are your people now too.
Carter looks at his husband and tilts his head.
HBCarter: You know, I never thought of it like that.
Miles: Hey, you are married to me. There has to be some benefits besides the ring.
Carter just laughs and smiles.
Miles: THERE we go, that's what I was looking for.
HBCarter: I'm sorry alright! Just trying to be serious.
Miles: Well this is a serious match but hey, no matter what...you got me and yeah I am gonna be worried sick for you both but this is the business we are in. Just please be safe.
HBCarter: I will try.
Miles: Thank you.
Miles kisses his husband and we hear Ollie let out a gag and that catches both of their attentions. Ollie sits there cleaning himself and then gags again.
Miles: Everyone is a critic.
HBCarter: You do realize that Ms. Thang is going to know that you were hanging out with him right?
Miles: So you'll finally be the favorite.
Miles kisses him on the cheek and before he goes to leave he stops.
Miles: Before I forget...how would you feel if I did something extremely out of character and off the cuff tonight.
HBCarter: YOU ARE NOT STRIPPING!!!!
Miles: That was one time and I was drunk!
HBCarter: Not drunk enough to not pick the song you did it too...in public no less.
Miles just sighs.
Miles: Ok fine, no stripping. I will think of something else to send the fans home happy tonight.
HBCarter: Thank you!
The first shot coming up is that of the entrance stage where a large ladder is set up just in front of the curtains. Along the aisle, ladders of varying size are set up along both sides of the entrance aisle and around ringside, more ladders on each side of the ring are both set up and a few are laying on the floor, ready for potential use.
Simone: Fans, we are mere moments away from perhaps one of the more emotionally charged Internet Championship matches that we have had in recent memory!
Adams: Yes! Not only is it a Ladder Match for the championship, but it's between two brothers-in-law!
Simone: And rumors abound that Carter is not overly fond of his brother-in-law. We are going to see if that plays a factor in how this match pans out!
The camera is now back at ringside where Justin Decent stands in the center of the ring, ready to begin the introductions as Drew Patton stands in the corner, here only to declare the winner.
Justin: Ladies and gentlemen! The following contest is a Ladder Match, and it is for the Sin City Wrestling Internet Championship!
The crowd cheers for the chaotic excitement of a ladder match!
Justin: Introducing first, the challenger!
Simone: LJ Kasey admittedly spent much of his career thus far in SCW, just trying to find his niche and that elusive first win.
Adams: Well he picked a heck of a way to get that first win! Winning that Gauntlet match to earn this championship match against Carter!
Justin: And his opponent...!
5 Seconds of Summer's hit "No Shame" erupts over the sound system and the crowd turns to the stage where Helluva Bottom Carter dances out onto the stage amidst the cheers of the SCW Universe! Clad in his favorite Ostrich jacket and sparkling lavender shades over his eyes, Carter bows and sweeps at the waist, blowing a kiss.
Justin: From Seattle, Washington, weighing one hundred and seventy six pounds, he is the reigning and defending Internet Champion! The "Hardcore Bottom" -- Helluva Bottom Carter!
Carter runs toward the ring, slapping hands offered out to him all around the ringside area. He then hops up onto the ring apron in a split and slides beneath the bottom rope. He crawls seductively on all fours until he arrives in his corner. He pulls himself up and removes his shades and jacket, passing them out to the ringside attendant before laying across the top corner.
Simone: Carter has publicly called this his first legit championship defense, even though technically a few weeks ago he did put the gold on the line against Justin Smith.
Adams: Yeah, has anyone figured out yet WHY Justin Smith was handed a title shot??? Was someone drunk? Did the matchmaker get overcome with spicy kebab fumes again?
Simone: My point is, Carter's first 'legit defense' could not be more emotionally problematic than against his own family!
Carter and LJ's eyes stare right into one another, Carter removing the belt from around his waist and passing it over to Drew. Drew holds the gold up for everyone to see, eliciting a number of excited cheers! The official then grabs the ring hung from the cable and attached the Internet title belt. Drew gives a signal and finally Carter and LJ's eyes leave each other to watch as the championship belt rises high above the ring until it stops. The champion and challenger then look back down to one another as Drew steps back and calls for the bell!
DING DING DING!
Carter and LJ emerge from out of their respective corners and circle briefly before they meet in the center of the ring where they quickly lock up, collar and elbow. LJ makes the first move, ducking back behind the champion, wrestling him into a rear waist lock but Carter is able to twist free and return the favor, ducking behind LJ in the very same hold. LJ is able to use his leverage to reach back and grab Carter into a side headlock and he hip tosses him over onto the mat where Carter almost immediately uses his legs to grab LJ into a head scissors. LJ rolls to and fro on the mat until he kips up, breaking the hold and landing on his feet where he squares off against Carter. The crowd applauds politely.
Simone: This bit of chain wrestling is really wetting the appetites of these fans here in London.
Adams: Yeah but what they want to see is the main course! Let's see some ladders!
Carter and LJ circle once again and are about to lock up a second time, but LJ pulls out at the last moment and ducks outside of the ring. He makes for the first ladder and grabs it...
Simone: It looks like maybe the challenger heard you, Jason.
But just as quickly, Carter is also outside of the ring and standing opposite of LJ, both pulling on the same ladder! LJ quickly forgets about it and ducks back inside of the ring and Carter slides back in to intercept him! Both men are up and Carter darts forward and LJ attempts a clothesline but Carter ducks under! The champion comes off the far side of the ring where LJ leaps and connects with a dropkick that sends Carter flying back, head over heels!
Simone: Now that was some impressive height Lyle got on that dropkick!
Adams: And he's the first to strike a real blow against Carter!
LJ is on the move, prying Carter off of the mat with no hesitation and he goes for an Irish whip into the ropes but Carter hangs on and reverses it! LJ comes off the ropes and Carter jumps and catches the challenger with a Hurricanrana! The momentum is enough that it sends LJ clear out of the ring but he manages to stay on his feet! LJ turns around in his haste...!
Adams: Look out!
And Carter runs right up the turnbuckles of the near corner and leaps off, wiping LJ out with a flying body press! Carter immediately grabs the first ladder on the ringside floor and picks it up[, sliding it inside of the ring beneath the bottom rope.
Simone: One disadvantage we have to acknowledge for the champion in this match is Carter is perhaps one of the smallest men on the roster. So some of those ladders are going to be heavy for him to have to keep picking up.
Adams: We also have to say that this lean body of his might not stand up to the type of damage a ladder match can inflict.
Carter climbs up onto the ring apron to step back through the ropes, but LJ is back on his feet and he comes up from behind the champion, tucking his head between Carter's legs and bringing him off of the apron...
Adams: Uhhh ohhh!
LJ hefts Carter over his head, catches him around the waist and brings him up and over with a release German suplex!
Simone: On the floor! A German suplex on the floor!
Adams: If anyone was wondering if they'd go easy on each other...!
LJ grabs an upright ladder and tips it over, allowing it to drop over onto the champion. LJ walks around the ringside area and then turns back around. The challenger gets a running start and jumps onto the steel ring steps and jumps off, landing on the ladder with a frog splash, sandwiching Carter in the process!
Adams: Oh LJ is going all out right off the bat!
Simone: I believe Carter's dismissal of Miles's little brother has lit a fire under him!
Carter's face is a mask of pain, but so is that of LJ who falls over onto the floor, holding his upper body with both arms and kicking his legs! LJ fights through the pain and scrambles to his feet and grabs another ladder and slides it inside of the ring before rolling in, beneath the bottom rope. LJ begins to set up the ladder in the center of the ring, looking up to align it with the championship belt high above. LJ then begins to climb...
Simone: LJ is going for it right away!
Adams: But Carter is right there to stop him!
Indeed the champion is up and back inside of the ring! He manages to grab LJ by the boot and prevent him from going any further! LJ tries to kick him off but Carter catches his other boot and pulls, tipping the ladder over and causing LJ to fall to the mat with a crash! The ladder falls against the ropes as Carter comes racing off of the ropes and baseball slides right into LJ's head with a dropkick that sends the challenger tumbling over! Carter grabs LJ by the legs and turns him around, back facing the ladder. Carter then falls back, launching LJ with a slingshot and LJ crashes head and chest-first into the ladder! LJ staggers back and Carter dropkicks him in the back, sending him careening a second straight time into the ladder and knocking it over to the canvas!
Adams: I guess all familial ties are gone with the championship on the line!
Simone: Indeed as now Carter is using the ladders against LJ like he did to him!
LJ staggers back and Carter jumps on his shoulders for a Poisonrana -- but LJ has enough to grab hold of the ropes and block it, leaving Carter dangling off of his back, upside down! LJ turns around and uses his leverage to throw his body forward and power Carter up and over, sending HIM crashing into the fallen ladder! The crowd gasps in shock!
Simone: Carter has taken so much punishment early on in this Ladder match!
Rather than set the ladder up again and make another attempt for the belt, LJ instead rolls to the outside and grabs another ladder. He slides one end into the ring when Carter dropkicks that end, causing the other end to swing around and strike LJ in the side of the head, knocking him to the floor!
Simone: Quick thinking on the part of the champion!
Adams: I'm surprised he was able to get up in time!
Now Carter pulls the ladder the rest of the way in and he struggles to set it up in the center of the ring!
Adams: Hurry up LJ, or this one is going to be over!
Carter begins to climb - slowly - as he is already feeling the pain from the shots with the ladder. The champion gets 3/4 of the way up when a woozy LJ staggers back into the ring!
Adams: Is LJ -- bleeding???
Simone: It would appear so, from the side of his head!
LJ begins to climb the ladder behind Carter until he is halfway up and he clubs the champion in the back with a forearm, stopping his ascent! LJ throws more forearms and then climbs higher and grabs Carter by the hair and whips his head into the ladder! Carter loses his balance and falls back, but catches his leg in the rails and is hanging upside down!
Simone: Oh if LJ plays this right, this is his chance to become champion!
Carter is struggling in his precarious position and LJ actually begins climbing OVER him to reach the top! Carter grabs at his leg again to keep him from going further and LJ is kicking at him with his free leg! LJ wrestles free from Carter's grasp but this time Carter kips up at the waist and manages to grab LJ around the waist and pulls him off...!
Adams: OH MY GOD!!!
Simone: A GERMAN SUPLEX OFF OF THE LADDER!!!
LJ comes crashing down from fifteen feet while the ladder topples over and Carter comes crashing down as well! The fans are on their collective feet, loving every moment!
Crowd: HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!
The impact and bounce sends LJ rolling clear to the outside and the floor, but Carter is in no shape to follow up himself, clutching at his leg!
Adams: Oh if Carter's leg is hurt, that's going to make it even harder to climb that ladder!
Neither champion nor challenger are moving as both are hurt and exhausted! The London fans are clapping and stomping, rallying behind their chosen favorite! The majority rallying for their hometown boy - LJ himself!
Simone: It is so rare to hear the crowd favor one of Carter's opponents!
LJ staggers to his feet but rather than go for another ladder or re-enter the ring, he ducks down and throws up the ring apron and begins rummaging. He sees movement from out of the corner of his eyes and turns in time to see Carter racing for a suicide dive through the ropes, but LJ grabs the nearest standing ladder and whips it straight into Carter! The impact leaves Carter's 'lifeless' body hanging halfway through the ropes!
Adams: What a SHOT!
LJ then grabs another ladder and slides it inside of the ring, and another! He finally grabs two steel chairs from beneath the ring and throws them inside of the ring as well!
Simone: Now we KNOW Lyle Kasey Junior means business!
LJ slowly rolls back inside of the ring and he grabs one of the ladders and starts to pick it up but a struggling Carter grabs the other end and a tug-of-war ensues!
Adams: And now Carter is busted open!
Simone: That ladder shot really did the trick!
Carter's blonde hair is now stained red at the hairline and crimson trickles down as LJ then changes tactics and pushes forward with the ladder, running the champion back into the corner! LJ then takes the ladder and wedges it into the corner and through the ropes, pinning Carter in the corner!
Adams: You know if he set up a ladder now, he could reach the top!
Simone: It could be done with Carter trapped as he is!
But instead, LJ climbs the ropes with carter trapped and he begins to drill the champion's head with right handed fists as his hometown crowd counts along...!
Crowd: ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE! SIX! SEVEN! EIGHT!...
But Carter's lithe body plays a factor as he drops down and slips from the predicament! Carter then grabs LJ by both feet and pulls, sweeping his feet out from under him and LJ falls and cracks his chin on the ladder! LJ is now hanging off of the ladder by the arms! This gives the champion time to grab the chairs that LJ brought into the match and he sets them up, then takes one of the smaller ladders and sets it across the seats like a bridge! Carter then drags LJ over and throws him back across the bridged ladder.
Adams: What is the champ up to now???
Carter grabs one of the remaining ladders and slowly gets it set up and standing and he starts to climb...
Simone: But that is not in a position to reach the championship belt!
Adams: I don't think that's what Carter is going for!
Carter slowly, carefully, turns around at the top of the ladder... He looks around and even LJ's staunch supporters are cheering for what is about to happen... Carter jumps for a senton ... and LJ moves! CARTER CRASHES ON THE LADDER AND FALLS OFF!!!
Adams: OH MY GOD!!!
Simone: It's over! LJ needs to get to the top of that ladder!
Backstage, Miles McKinney-Kasey and a banged up Alexandra Calaway are watching with obvious concern on the monitor...
LJ throws the ladder aside and kicks the chairs out of the way! He grabs the ladder that Carter had set up and positions it. LJ then grabs another ladder and sticks one end through the middle ropes and the other end, on the rungs of the set ladder.
Simone: Smart move to brace that ladder so it'll be steady for the climb.
Finally set, LJ begins to climb the ladder on the bridged side. It is a slow process given the amount of punishment both men have endured! He gets halfway when a hurt Carter finally staggers to his feet!
Adams: If Carter doesn't do something to stop LJ, his title reign is over!
Carter does the only thing he can - he begins to climb the ladder as well on the other side! Both men are slow, struggling to reach the top! LJ reaches the top first and he begins to extend his arm and his hand grasps the belt...
Adams: He's got it! He has it!
Simone: Not yet he doesn't!
Carter has now reached the top and he reaches for the belt as well! LJ stops and throws a right hand at Carter, knocking him back but the champion holds on! Carter then answers with a fist of his own but LJ also is able to hold on! A punch from LJ, and another from Carter!
Simone: A fist fight at the top of that ladder is NOT a good idea!!!
Carter then grabs a handful of LJ's hair and bashes his face into the top of the ladder! LJ stops his fighting back and Carter slams his head into the ladder a second time - then a third! Now LJ is just hanging there and Carter looks up at the belt and climbs that last step...
Adams: He's got... wait! He's not reaching for the belt!
Simone: What is he... oh no...! No!
Carter stands up and jumps over LJ, grabbing him on the way over for a sunset flip....
Simone: NO!
And Carter brings LJ crashing down into the bridged ladder with a sunset flip from the top of the ladder! Both men crash into the horizontal ladder and bounce off, crashing to the mat!
Crowd: HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!
Backstage, Miles has his hands in his hair, eyes wide and Alexandra's hands are over her mouth in shock!
The entirety of the crowd is on its feet, chanting and cheering as LJ is not moving and Carter is stirring, holding his backside! Carter slowly gets to his hands and knees and forces his way to his feet! Carter stumbles over and he begins to climb the ladder again!
Adams: LJ better hurry up and do something!
Simone: LJ still is not moving! Carter is all alone up there!
It takes a long time but Carter manages to reach the top of the ladder! He stretches - reaching for the belt! He grabs hold of it and SUCCESSFULLY pries it loose!
DING DING DING!
Justin: Here is your winner! And STILL Internet Champion! Helluva! Bottom! CARTER!!
"No Shame" kicks off across the arena as Carter holds the championship belt up high from atop the ladder as officials are now inside of the ring, checking on LJ!
Simone: What a match! My God, it has been a long time since we've seen a Ladder match like THAT!
Adams: These two threw all family connections out the window and brought it and all for the Internet Championship!
The crowd is cheering for the epic Ladder match they just witnessed as LJ is not sitting up, looking up at the top of the ladder and his successful brother-in-law with disappointment etched on his face as the scene closes out...
The environment backstage in the O2 Arena is still chaotic following the Ladder match just witnessed as staff are hurrying to and fro, summoning the men and women from the First Aid stations to ensure both Carter and Lyle Kasey Junior would be alright; if needing patching up or potential trips to the nearest hospitals for further evaluations.
Lyle is sitting in a private area, cordoned off by the curtains surrounding them. One medic is shining a light in his eyes, trying to check for possible signs of a concussion, while another is carefully dabbing where the cut is on the side of his head, ready to check and diagnose if stitches are required. All the while, Alexandra Calaway is standing nearby, arms folded over her upper5 body and watching in stark concern.
That is when the curtains are drawn aside, drawing the attentions of those present...
Paramedic: Excuse me but...
But into the area walks not only LJ's brother Miles, but also his brother-in-law and the equally banged up Carter. Not having even been treated yet, Carter carefully steps over to where LJ is seated and says nothing. He just leans in and wraps an arm around his brother-in-law's shoulder and rests his forehead against the side of LJ's own as Miles and Alexandra look on...
The camera cuts backstage to a room that has been fully taken over and decorated in pastel pink, gold, and cream colors for Mikah and Kris Ryans' newly one year old daughter, Ridley. Mikah walks into the frame, dressed in a simple pair of jeans and a cropped shirt with "Everybody's Favorite Villain" written on it. She looks around, making sure that everything was in place and frowns as the background with the words, "Isn't She Lovely, Isn't she ONEderful," was falling on one side.
Mikah: Lovely. I should never send an idiot to do something that I can do better myself.
She walks over to the sign and reaches up with it and fixes it just as she hears footsteps behind her. She makes sure that the banner/background is secure before turning to see Kris walking into the room. She smirks a little before walking over to him while glancing over to make sure that Ridley was still busy playing with Myles, Lindsay, and KJ.
Mikah: Missing anything this time?
She was alluding back to the previous show where the kids had taken off with his jacket and he had panicked momentarily until it was found.
Kris: According to Finn, the only thing I am missing is the drive, talent, and gas left in the tank to actually win this match.
He sighs, and quickly deflects the conversation away from the main event that he was going to be competing in later on tonight.
Kris: ….but like, physically? No. I think they all know that this one is a little too big to be messing with me. Plus, with Ridley's birthday we don't really have a lot of extra time.
As the words are coming out of his mouth, he seems to trust them less and less. By the time he gets to the end of them, his face is scrunched up, and he appears entirely uncertain if any of them were the actual truth.
Kris: …or maybe that is what they want me to think to lure me into a false sense of security before launching whatever plans they have. There's too many of them now. It's hard to tell when they are actually being nice. I'm outnumbered.
Mikah raises an eyebrow at her husband before looking over at the four kids who were still gathered in a circle.
Mikah: First of all, you have more talent and drive than anybody in this building right now. Finn is just blowing smoke and trying to sound more important than he actually is.
Mikah just waves that thought off.
Mikah: I may have also told them that if they were to mess with anybody, it would be Finn and not you. And that if they did mess with you, there'd be some sort of consequence involving your favorite sea monster.
Mikah winks at him before glancing again at the children, making sure none of them escaped her view.
Mikah: Speaking of the kids, how many more are you going to give me?
She scrunches her nose at him in a teasing manner.
Mikah: But seriously, you really don't have anything to worry about. You're a thousand times better than Finn, even if you lose.
He shakes his head.
Kris: I am not sure that is how that works.
Kris had tried to hide the fact that he felt that this opportunity was happening too fast, and that it hadn't necessarily been part of his plan this time around in Sin City. It was that pressure that was apparently starting to get to him.
Kris: …but it's his job to take my words, twist them, and shove them back in my face. I didn't come back for this, so it isn't going to make or break me either way. I think I have been doing pretty well so far. That's enough, right?
It didn't look like he believed that it was going to be enough to just be kicking around on the opening half of the card, and being used as a stepping stone for people getting the big title shots. He also wasn't sure if Mikah would agree with him, or even if he wanted her to. They were supposed to be the best, and her admitting they could settle for less than that would be a major blow to his confidence. Instead of letting her answer, he blew through it to make a joke instead.
Kris: Plus, if I win, then we all know I would probably become a whole lot less pleasant to be around. I like my life. I'm fine. Really.
Although, he definitely gave the impression of someone that was worried about the result of the match tonight, regardless of the outcome.
Mikah: Well, for what it's worth, I still think you're better than Finn even if you lose.
She gives him a genuine smile, one that he was probably the only one other than their kids that could get one out of her.
Mikah: Well, if you lose how will you feel? That's the big question, isn't it?
She raises an eyebrow at him.
Mikah: I think you've been doing what you've wanted to be doing and I think that is what is important. Not how the outcome of this match is or what anybody else thinks of you. And even if you lose, you're still going to be the best and for what it's worth…
She smirks a little bit before leans up and pecks his cheek with a quick kiss.
Mikah: You're probably the only one that gets infinite chances at returning, so that means essentially you're management's favorite.
She winks at him. His mouth opens several times, but he shakes off each of the first few thoughts that he has wordlessly. He struggles for a few more seconds before looking away from her and over to the decorations for their daughter's birthday party.
Kris: I think the match is something that I can worry about later. We have bigger things going on back here right now.
The arena was filled with a jam-packed audience. Their excitement and buzz could be felt throughout the hold building. About that time there was a shift in the arena's lighting. Replaced with hints of purple, yellow, and white strobe lights. All while the start of "Run Away Girl" by Alice Merton began to pump through the speaker system. This resulted in a little excitement being felt from those in attendance.
Several cheers started to get a little louder. It wasn't but a few seconds later stepping out through the curtain was the one they called Raine. She had a smirk plastered across her lips as she stepped to the center with all eyes on her. Tugging at the ends of her ring jacket while peering out at the cheering crowd. She tossed her hand into the air to pump up the crowd a bit more as she began her journey to the ring.
Justin: The following contest is a Last Woman Standing match for the Bombshell Internet Championship! Introducing first at this time. Making her way to the ring. From Seattle, Washington. The self proclaimed Queen of Self Mutilation, RAINE!
By the time the introduction had finished. Raine was right there at the ringside area. Slapping hands with a couple of fans there at ringside before turning herself towards the ring steps. She jogged right on up them. Taking a small stroll to the middle of the ring apron, Raine then stopped and put her back against the ropes as she peered out at the crowd again.
Her smirk had seemingly only gotten bigger from when she had first walked out. Tossing the hand of hers into the air again to get a reaction. Only for her to swing herself into the ring and quickly head towards the nearest turnbuckle. Climbing it up, she raised that hand into the air and then brought it over to her eyes as if she was creating a shield.
For her to be able to peer out at the people in the audience. This lasted for a few seconds before her theme song started to die down. Raine leaped from the turnbuckle to the ring, slowly starting to remove her ring jacket. Once it was off, she tossed it down in the corner of the ring before bringing her attention up to begin to prepare for the match about to happen.
Adams: Raine won her shot at the championship tonight by going through the proving ground series which was the brainchild of one Mark Ward.
Simone: She did in fact earn that shot. Although the champion herself, Julianna has been very hell-bent on discrediting Raine's win for the last few weeks now.
Adams: I can understand why. Raine's competition in the series wasn't the stiffest, but the fact still remains that she picked up that win. No taking that from her.
Raine stood there in her corner stretching her arms out. A clear sign she was ready for this match to really get underway. Paranoid" hits the speakers as Julianna DiMaria appears on the stage, greeted by some boos from the fans in attendance. She ignores them and heads down to the ring with a confident, focused look on her face.
Justin: And now introducing. All the way from San Diego, California. She is the reigning and defending SCW Bombshell Internet Champion, JULIANNA DiMARIA!
Once she heads inside the ring, she cracks her knuckles, indicating she's ready to fight and afterward does the "talk to the hand" gesture toward all the fans that are booing her, displaying another touch of arrogance to get the fans against her even more.. She heads to her corner and scoffs at the reaction she's getting as the song fades and she waits for what's coming next.
Simone: If there is one thing about Julianna is she is a woman that very much believes in herself and her ability.
Adams: And rightfully so. She had quite the run as the Bombshell World Champion. You can count on one hand how many times she has lost under the Sin City Wrestling umbrella.
Simone: By no means would I ever discredit Julianna or anything she's accomplished. But I also believe in facts and facts are her ego has cost her before. It could cost her again here tonight.
DING DING DING!
Both women found themselves stepping out of their respective corners. Raine starts to circle around the ring causing Julianna to follow suit. The two women trying to get a feel for each other and when the right moment would be to strike. Seemingly at the same time they both had the same idea as they found themselves meeting right up in the middle of the ring for a tight collar and elbow tie up. Right away women were trying to gain control.
Adams: This is truly going to be a match for the ages, Belinda
Simone: Julianna might be a season vet at this point inside the halls of SCW. However, Raine has really started to make a name for herself and she's only been on the roster six weeks.
Adams: I am not convinced we'll see a new champion crowned tonight, but I am convinced we'll see Raine prove that she belongs.
However, being similar in size, it was a little bit of a stand still. That was until Raine broke the tie up apart when she shoved Julianna back. Julianna found herself glaring at Raine for that brief moment before rushing in. Right away Raine side-stepped it and shoved Julianna towards the ropes. She hit the ropes and bounced off them right into a SLEEPER HOLD from Raine. Yet, before she could really get it locked in. Juliannna dropped down onto her backside and drove Raine's jaw into her shoulder.
This caused Raine to break the hold and back up some holding her jaw. Julianna found herself getting right back to her feet as she rushed Raine again. Yet, the moment she got close Raine ducked down and flipped Julianna over her back sending her over the top rope. Julianna grabbed the top rope with both her hands and prevented herself from falling to the floor. Quickly pulling herself up to a standing base on the apron, but as soon as she did. Raine went low with a SUPERKICK to the knee.
Julianna lost her footing and quickly bashed her face off the ring apron before hitting the floor. Jacob was quick to roll out of the ring to start a ten count.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
Julianna had grabbed a hold of the steel barricade at ringside and pulled herself up to her feet. Shaking her head a bit to shake the cobwebs loose. About the time she had turned around to face Raine. The challenger had already hit the ropes and was coming back landing a huge SUICIDE DIVE as she slammed Julianna's body into that barricade taking her back down to a massive reaction from the fans in attendance.
Simone: What a suicide dive by Raine here in the early opening!
Adams: I think that will be her best shot if she wants to try and upset Julianna. Hard hitting unpredictable offense to keep Julianna on her toes!
Simone: You might be right there. After all, you can tell Julianna wasn't ready for that dive just now!
Raine didn't allow Jacob to get going on his ten count after she knocked Julianna down. She quickly grabbed a hold of the woman by her hair and yanked her to her feet. Before charging forward and then whipping Julianna right into the ring post. Her head smacked against it with such force it just rag-dolled her body to the floor of the arena. Raine backed up as Jacob stepped in to start counting.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
FOUR!
FIVE!
Julianna found herself reaching up and grabbing the apron to help pull herself up. Getting her feet out from under her to stop the ten count. Right away Raine found herself leaping onto the apron where Julianna was. Running across it for a PUNT KI-NO! Julianna grabbed the foot of Raine just in time before it could connect with her face. Then she violently whipped Raine's foot backwards causing her to lose her balance and come crashing down on the ring apron face first before rolling to the floor.
Adams: Ooof! That had to hurt. That's the hardest part of the ring!
Simone: Indeed it is, but more importantly than that. It was exactly what Julianna needed to swing the momentum in her favor.
Adams: It sure did and that could be very costly. Once Julianna has that control of a match. It takes a lot to try and get it back away from her.
It didn't take long before Raine was getting up to her feet. Julianna was very much stalking right behind her as she watched Raine stand up. As soon as she did she grabbed a hold of Raine from behind and took a couple steps toward before driving Raine's face right off the top of the commentator's table with a huge FORWARD RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP right into it. Raine crumbled to the floor holding her face with Jacob standing nearby to start another ten count.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
FOUR!
Raine wasn't going to go down without a fight. Using the very table that she had just had her face bashed off it to help get her feet under her to stop that ten count. Julianna grabbed a hold of the woman by her hair and went to slam her face off the table again, but Raine planted her hands against the surface of the commentator's table to save herself. Before landing an elbow to the gut of Julianna forcing her to back up for the time being.
Getting her bearings about herself. Raine pushed away from the table and stood up to turn around. That would be costly as Julianna landed a stiff kick right to the gut forcing Raine to double over. Julianna then without any hesitation charged in and took Raine off her feet with a nasty looking SWINGING NECKBREAKER slamming the challenger down hard into the concrete floor of the venue.
Simone: That nasty sounding thud of Raine's body hitting the O2 Arena's floor!
Adams: You know a lot of people don't understand. There's not a lot of thickness to those mats we put down on the floors. You're pretty much hitting the concrete.
Simone: I believe Raine has a lot more fight in her, but that's certainly going to play into the long game here tonight.
Raine laid there clutching the back of her head and neck where she had been put down into the floor. Jacob stood nearby as he began that count once more.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
FOUR!
FIVE!
By the time Jacob got to a five count. Raine had forced herself to stand right back up, but found herself receiving a knee to the gut from Julianna. Before she grabbed a hold of the rainbow colored hair of the challenger and then tossed her back into the ring from under the bottom rope. Jacob took it upon himself to get back in the ring as well. Julianna on the other hand had something else in mind as she reached for the ring apron and pulled it up for a brief second. Moments later she dragged a light tube out from under the ring as she placed it inside the ring before rolling in herself.
Simone: Wait just a minute! What does Julianna plan to do with that?!
Adams: I think we both know exactly what she plans to do.
Once she was in the ring Julianna picked that light tube up and zeroed in on Raine who was in the corner trying to catch her breath. Looking up she saw Julianna rushing towards her and swinging that light tube for her. Right away the last second Raine ducked under it and avoided contact. Quickly, Raine followed up with a THROAT THRUST causing Julianna to begin gasping for air as she dropped the light tube. Raine reached down and grabbed a hold of it taking a look at it.
Adams: Raine is coming face to face with her old self!
Simone: You got to think Julianna knew what she was doing when she introduced it!
Julianna was down on one knee still gasping from that shot she took to the throat. However, the moment she looked up. Raine struck as she swung that light tube and CRACKED it right over the head of Julianna causing it to shatter into thousands of little glass pieces. She went limp against the mat after that shot. Right away blood could be seen leaking down onto the mat where she laid face first. With Jacob standing right there to count the fallen Julianna.
ONE!
TWO!
Simone: My goodness! Raine swung that light tube with everything she had!
Adams: All those memories had to come rushing back from her death match days!
THREE!
FOUR!
Adams: Julianna is trying to get herself back up, but she's losing a lot of blood very quickly!
Simone: That might be a nastier wound than the one Bella suffered earlier in the night!
FIVE!
SIX!
SEVEN!
In a last ditch effort to make sure she didn't get counted out. Julianna shot herself up to her feet and then fell into the ropes to keep herself up right. As she slowly turned around it could be seen that the blood had not only soaked her blonde hair but had covered her entire face. Raine knew she had to stay in control if she planned on picking up the win. Finding herself rushing in right then and there leaping onto the ropes for an elevated KNEE STRIKE before pulling Julianna by the wrist off the ropes and scooping her onto her shoulders.
As soon as she was on her shoulders. Julianna began to show some life with her fighting back. Landing a couple of elbows to the side of Raine's head allowed herself to slide off her shoulders and landed on her one knee. Using her hands to wipe the blood out of her eyes as she looked up seeing Raine turn around. Julianna shot up from that one knee and connected with a SPEAR that sent both of them tumbling through the ropes and back to the floor on the outside. Julianna did her best to get to her feet in a quick manner. All while Raine had already pulled herself up with the help of the steel barricade at ringside,
Julianna proved to not be done with Raine. She exploded forward a second time and this time she managed to hit a high SHINING WIZARD that caught Raine right in the chin and sent her flying over that barricade and right onto the concrete floor before the fans in attendance. A bloody Julianna got to her feet and fell back against the ring to keep herself upright.
Simone: Julianna has really managed to get herself back in this thing! And not is she back in it, but she is all over Raine right now. Giving her no time to breathe!
Adams: And that's how you do things in these types of matches as I said earlier. Reign down from the start with your best punches and it's going to make a big difference.
Simone: It certainly has Raine down for the count right now.
Jacob had made a few steps over to see where Raine was and she was just laying there face down on the concrete after being sent over the barricade. Forcing the man to begin a ten count once again.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
Raine had started to crawl forward a little bit. Reaching up for the barricade. The count continuing as she struggled to get herself up.
FOUR!
FIVE!
SIX!
Finally, Raine pulled herself up and got those feet up and under herself to stop the count. She then tossed herself right back over the barricade to be at ringside. As soon as she stood up though she was met with a huge FOREARM SMASH to the face by Julianna that knocked her down to one knee. Julianna then grabbed a hold of her by the hair and started to drag her back over to the ring. Aiming to slam her head against the apron of the ring, but Raine blocked it with a shot to the gut forcing Julianna to let go.
From there Raine took Julianna's head and slammed it against the edge of the apron instead leaving a splatter of the woman's blood right there on the apron. Before Raine grabbed her by the head again and just tossed her back in the ring. Raine dropped down to her knee as she lifted up the ring apron and looked under the ring herself. It didn't take long at all before she grabbed a nylon bag and pulled it out before rolling herself into the ring. The moment she was on her feet, she began to untie the bag.
Tossing the tie to the side before flipping the back upside down and began to pour thumbtacks into the middle of the ring. There was a little bit of a gasp from the crowd. Before the excitement began to come out of those fans as they knew what was about to take place.
Adams: Wow. Raine is really digging into those old roots of hers a lot more than I would have imagined!
Simone: Raine has said it herself that she left the deathmatch world behind for a reason. But when you're in this type of environment. I guess it might be hard to fight certain urges.
Adams: And its certainly going to put Julianna at a disadvantage. She introduced that light tube earlier and paid for it. If Raine embeds this woman with those tacts. We might have a new champion after all.
By the time she finished pouring the thumbtacks out. Julianna was coming up behind her with a club to the back bringing Raine down to one knee for a minute. Only for Raine to fire back with another shot to the gut that caused Julianna to double over. Raine stood right up and grabbed a hold of the woman by her head and neck. Taking one look behind her at the tacks before setting her up for a SUPL-NOOO! Julianna countered by using her momentum to swing herself to swing down and land behind Raine.
As soon as she was on her feet. She hooked a hold of both of Raine's arms and turned around before driving Raine straight down face first into those tacts with "DiMARIA CODE"! The tacks could be seen embedded into the cheek and head of Raine, as Julianna got to her feet and backed away. The scene was unsettling as she didn't show any signs of movement. Jacob had no choice but to begin that count.
Simone: That was brutal!
Adams: This is on Raine! She's the one that introduced those thumbtacks!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
Adams: I don't see Raine getting back up. She put up a fight, but that was just as you said brutal!
Simone: You can just see the tacks sticking out of her face and skull!
FOUR!
FIVE!
SIX!
About that time Raine was starting to push herself up. Withered in pain she put one hand down on the mat and then the other.
SEVEN!
EIGHT!
Raine with everything she had pushed herself up to her feet. Tacts still sticking out of her face, but Julianna was right there to give her no room to breathe. Right away kicking her in the gut the moment she stood up. Julianna then hooked her from behind again. With a smirk spread across her face, she looked right at the thumbtacks.
Simone: No! No! Not again!
Julianna found herself sweeping the legs of Raine, driving her head first into those thumbtacks for a second "DiMARIA CODE"! More of Raine's blood began to soak her face and leak onto the mat with her face being driven into those tacks for a second time.
Adams: This woman has no mercy! She's going to do whatever it takes to keep the Bombshell Internet Championship!
Julianna took a few steps backwards, seemingly admiring her work. Again there was Jacob to begin to start that ten count. With the fans booing heavily now, as it seemed they also believed the writing was on the wall for the challenger.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
FOUR!
Raine rolled herself onto her back. A close up shot of the blood and tacks covering her face could be seen. The count still continued as she laid there in a daze.
FIVE!
SIX!
SEVEN!
About that time Raine rolled to her side and started to find the strength to stand up. Julianna just glaring at her, not pleased with what was taking place.
EIGHT!
NINE!
TE-NOOOOOO!
At the very last second Raine shot to her feet and then fell backwards into one of the corners of the ring using the ropes to keep herself up right.
Simone: Raine did it! She made it back to her feet!
Adams: I do not understand how this woman is still standing after that!
Simone: This is just proof of what kind of adrenaline that Raine runs on. There's no other explanation other than it is pure adrenaline at this point.
Julianna had the woman sized up that was having a hard time keeping herself upright in the corner. Sprinting across the ring for a HANDSPRING ELB-NOOO! Raine dodged the elbow in time as Julianna smacked harshly into the turnbuckle pads. She came stumbling out based on force as Raine scooped her right onto the shoulders. No sooner than she had her there. Raine drove her down into the mat with "RAINEY DAYS" leaving them both down and out for the moment. Jacon found himself standing between the two women and began to count out loud.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
FOUR!
FIVE!
Adams: If both of these women get counted out. Julianna will keep the championship by default!
Simone: That would be good for her, but awful for Raine to know she came that close!
Adams: Very much a risk you run into with these types of matches!
SIX!
SEVEN!
EIGHT!
Julianna and Raine found themselves starting to move around to stand themselves up, but still struggling to get to that vertical basis.
NINE!
TE-NOOOOOOOO!
Both Raine and Julianna stood up at the same time finding themselves leaning into each other to actually keep themselves up right on their feet. Raine pushed Julianna off her as she bounced into the ropes and came in with a forearm to the jaw. It rocked Raine backwards for a second before Raine herself came forward and landed a forearm shot of her own. Dazing Julianna as she stumbled back. Raine tried to take control but she was quickly caught off guard by Julianna.
She had grabbed a hold of Raine by her head and neck as she dropped down to one knee. Forcing Raine's jawline to hit against the top of her skull for a JAWBREAKER that sent Raine stumbling back across the ring holding her jaw from the pain she was in. Julianna shot right back to both feet as she charged in for a clothesline, but it was DUCKED by Raine. Julianna looked around confused for that brief moment after missing. She then turned around with a look of concern on her face.
As soon as she turned around. It proved to be a situation where she was a sitting duck with Raine taking her hand and landing a KNOCKOUT PUNCH with that right hand. Julianna's eyes rolled back into her head as she hit the mat out cold. Causing the crowd to come alive for the challenger with those loud cheers! Jacob backed Raine up away from Julianna's prone body before he started the count.
ONE!
Adams: That is one hell of a right hand Raine has on her!
TWO!
Simone: Keep in mind Jason. A few weeks ago Raine knocked Cassie Wolfe out cold and picked up a win!
THREE!
Adams: Could you imagine what this would do to Julianna's ego if she loses her championship after being knocked out cold?!
FOUR!
Simone: Well I'd say it is rightfully deserved with some of the things Julianna had to say about Raine!
FIVE!
Adams: I would say that equally the two of them had some nasty things to say about each other!
SIX!
Inside the ring Raine was just leaning there hoping it was going to be enough, but it was about that time Julianna rolled herself over to her stomach to try and get up.
SEVEN!
EIGHT!
NINE!
Right before ten, Julianna shot up to her feet and fell forward into the ropes but it was enough to keep her up right and stop the count. Frustration all over Raine's face as she forced herself out of the corner and started to approach Julianna. Reaching out and grabbing a hold of her wrist as soon as she did so. Julianna fired back with an elbow right to the jaw that caused Raine to let go of her wrist and stumble back. As Raine turned around Julianna kicked her knee out from under her.
Taking a couple of steps back before coming forward and landing a SHINING WIZARD right the the temple of Raine's head knocking her flush against the mat. However, it didn't appear that she was done just yet with her opponent. Julianna grabbed the challenger by one of her feet and one of her arms starting to drag her across the ring. Dragging her right to the corner she wanted her to be in. Julianna took the chance to turn around.
As she then connected with a STANDING MOONSAULT but making sure to come KNEES FIRST into the chest of Raine. Popping right back up to her feet despite having gone through and leaped over Raine then landing on the second rung of the turnbuckle. Before launching herself backwards to come right back down on top of her for a SOMERSAULT SENTON her entire weight crushing down on Raine's sternum with Julianna rolling away to get back to feet. To watch on with Jacob counting once more.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
FOUR!
FIVE!
Adams: I think Julianna just put an end to this brutal contest.
SIX!
Simone: All those blows right to the chest area of Raine. I could only imagine she's having a heard time breathing right now.
SEVEN!
Adams: I will go on record to say this might end up being one of the most intense Last Woman Standing matches. I have ever seen!
EIGHT!
Simone: I'm going to agree with you on that one. They have been giving it everything they have.
NINE!
Raine had reached out and grabbed the top rope of the ring pulling herself up in just the knick of time as Jacob was a moment away from shouting ten. He waved his hands and pointed to the woman's feet as they were up and under her to keep the match going. Everything in Julianna's expression said what it needed to. By no means at all was she happy with the woman being able to get back to her feet. Raine let go of the ropes and came stumbling to the middle of the ring.
Julianna wasted no time to meet her there. Right away Raine swung her fist but Julianna found herself ducking right under it and forcefully spinning Raine around as she did so. Hooking both of the challenger's arms as she attempted "DiMARIA CO-NOOO!" The third time wasn't landed thanks to Raine throwing her head back and catching the champion on the chin with a headbutt forcing Julianna to let go of her. Raine spun herself around and forcefully grabbed Julianna by the throat.
There was zero hesitation at all. Lifting the champion up in the air and then driving Julianna down with all her might for "RAINEDROP"! Julianna's body hitting the mat heard and bouncing before she found herself rolling over to her side and staying there.
Simone: What a thunderous chokeslam!
Adams: That was some serious display of power from Raine!
Raine found herself getting right back to her feet as she pointed right at Jacob and shook her head no. A sign right there telling the man not to count. Raine found herself marching right towards the corner. At that point she was running off nothing but adrenaline. Stepping through the ropes to climb to the top rope. Wasting no time at all to get to her feet in a perfect perched position. She looked down at Julianna smirking through the blood and the few tacks still embedded in her face.
However all of the sudden Julianna could be seen kicking her foot up against the top rope causing Raine to lose her balance and come crashing forward. Her face bashing off the bottom turnbuckle as her foot was tangled up in the ropes leaving her upside down and tied up. She was in a panic trying to reach behind her and untie herself but she couldn't reach.
Adams: She's caught up in the ropes!
Simone: And she can't reach the ropes to untie herself either!
By now Julianna was on her feet in the corner and laughing as Raine continued to be riddled with panic. Jacob found herself to have no other choice but to start the ten count considering the woman was not on her feet. The booing crowd were letting their voices be heard about the situation, but there wasn't anything they could do either.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
FOUR!
FIVE!
Raine found herself starting to torque her body to grab that rope that was around her foot and tugging on in an attempt to free herself.
Simone: Raine is fighting like hell to get out of the ropes!
Adams: If it ends like this, it'll be disappointing!
SIX!
SEVEN!
EIGHT!
NINE!
Finally, she was able to get that rope off her foot as her body fell the rest of the way in. She quickly grabbed the ropes and started to stand up.
TEN!
DING DING DING!
Raine got both her feet under her, just a split second after Jacob had shouted ten. The woman dropped to her knees in a state of shock. The boos ringing out even louder from the fans in attendance.
Justin: Here is your winner and STILL the Bombshell Internet Champion, JUUUULLLIIIIAAANNNNAAA DiiiiiMAAAARRRIIAAAAA!
By the time her name had been announced Julianna had rolled out of the ring. Snatching her championship away from the timekeeper's table and tossing it over her shoulder. Finding herself limping away from the ring with an arrogant smirk on her lips.
Adams: That's such a bad ending to this incredible match!
Simone: Raine was a split second away from making that ten count.
Adams: She was, and I know people are going to want to gang up on Jacob for the call. But it was the right call to make. She wasn't standing. It's just sad it comes to an end like this.
Simone: I'll agree with that. It could have ended better, but at the end of the day. A win is a win no matter how you slice it.
Julianna had made her way back up that ramp with the same smirk on her lips. Unbothered and unphased by the situation. As the championship was going home with her. Inside the ring Raine was starting to peel the thumb tacks out of her face with Jacob kneeling down beside her to check on her. It resulted in her shouting at him to get away from her. Jacob backed up as he still tried to explain his stance. Raine just stood up and then rolled out of the ring with her middle finger in the air aimed right at Jacob. That's when the cameras cut away from the ring and caught some more action as well.
The camera cuts backstage again to see Mikah walking through the hallways backstage and looking under tables and opening doors to closets. She sighs a little bit as she runs her fingers through her hair.
Mikah: Ridley Ellisyn, you better come out.
It was obvious now that Mikah was looking for her and Kris' one year old daughter. She opens the door to another room and makes a face before closing it and walks down the hallway in the other direction. She turns the corner and runs literally into her husband.
Mikah: Jesus.
She makes a face before giving him a small smile.
Mikah: Hi…again.
She takes a step backwards from him.
Mikah: Any…less nervous?
Kris shrugs, and attempts to blow off the question without taking it seriously.
Kris: Me? Nervous? Have you met me? I am "The Miracle" Kris Ryans. I am like one championship away from being a two-time Grand Slam Champion. I am main eventing this show. I'm… awesome.
None of the words come out believable at all, and it is obvious that Mikah sees straight through them, but he doesn't give her the opportunity to question it.
Kris: The better question is, how are you? What are you doing wandering around the hallways?
His face turns slightly more serious.
Kris: Did the kids do something?
A look passes through Mikah's eyes momentarily before she just shrugs her shoulders a little bit.
Mikah: Me? I don't think it matters how I am. I'm not the one that is competing and closing out the show. That's you, babe.
She scrunches her nose at him again.
Mikah: The kids…they're fine. I think Myles ran off to find Hot Stuff Mark Ward to ask about his most improved award again. And KJ and Lindsay are off trying to find the best hiding places…I think.
She shrugs her shoulders again with a slightly nervous look in her eyes.
Mikah: I was just…bored of being stuck in one room. That's all.
She waves it off.
Mikah: Are you…supposed to be getting ready for your match?
She raises an eyebrow at him.
Mikah: And not wandering the hallway and potentially getting into trouble?
His eyes narrow a little on her as he seems to figure out what she is actually doing out in the hallways.
Kris: I can't help but notice that you mentioned all of the children except for the little one.
Mikah's eyes widen, but she shakes her head. She bites down on her bottom lip and attempts to look innocent without explicitly lying about actively trying to find their lost daughter. Kris folds his arms in front of his chest, and seems about to ask another question when he is sold out by the child. The first few words are nothing but gibberish, but Mikah's face lights up in realization when she hears one keyword.
Ridley: DADA!Mikah reaches out and pulls on Kris' shirt to reveal straps around his shoulders that hold the child to him. She turns him around to see Ridley happily riding along with him like a backpack. Even though the two of them had done their best the child was still half-covered in cake from the party.
Kris: We went for a walk to try and get cleaned up. You didn't think that you lost her, did you?
Mikah raises her eyebrows at him before shrugging her shoulders at him.
Mikah: It was definitely a possibility.
She looks at their one year old's cake covered face before looking back at her husband with a smirk on her face.
Mikah: You never know when our kids are going to try to pull when they're at a show. Pretty soon they'll be teaching her how to get all the attention so that they can try to steal the bigger championships.
They both knew what their children were capable of and the shenanigans that they usually got up to when they were at the shows.
Mikah: She definitely needs a bath. Her hair is more cake than it is cake.
Mikah laughs a little bit before scrunching her nose at him again.
Mikah: You have bigger things to prepare for rather than clean up a toddler. Stop being a parent and go be The Miracle. We don't want you to get injured and I doubt that Mark and Christian want you to get injured because your mind is on Ridley.
She moves to remove Ridley from the device that was holding her on him.
Mikah: Go, go. I'll fix her up.
Mikah leans up and gives him a quick kiss before letting him walk off to prepare for his match.
Simone: It's time for the first of tonight's World Title Matches and this one promises to be Kayla Richards' biggest challenge to date, QUITE LITERALLY, as Tempest challenges her in a Steel Cage Match!
Adams: Tempest outlasted Song, Harper Mason and Bobbie Dahl to get this chance, she's held the Internet gold already but can she claim the World Title?
Simone: One way to find out! Let's take it to Justin!
Justin: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THIS IS A STEEL CAGE MATCH FOR THE WORLD BOMBSHELL CHAMPIONSHIP!
"I will kill your dreams."
Justin: Introducing first, from Norwich, East Anglia, England, she is the reigning and defending World Bombshell Champion, "The Dreamkiller" KAYLA RICHARDS!
The voice of Kayla Richards gives way to the opening guitar riff of Bad Omens "Like a Villian" The lights flash from being on and bright to dark and switching between a dark purple and red. Kayla Richards steps out onto the stage in her gear, a black leather jacket over it, her long hair flowing down as she makes her way to the ring, she runs and slides up and across the apron on one knee before getting into the ring and putting both her hands in the air, one crossed over the other to make a "K" with her fingers before they turn into a double bird and move down to a fingergun pose pointed at the crowd.
Simone: Kayla has been unstoppable since she took the title from Julianna earlier this year!
Adams: In both the singles and mixed tag team ranks! But that could change tonight!
Justin: And introducing the challenger!
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: Coming to the ring! From Honolulu, Hawaii, weighing two hundred and eighteen pounds -- Tempest!
The fans are in awe at the size of Tempest as she wastes no time in power walking straight to the ring, her eyes never straying from her destination and paying no mind to the fans reaching out toward her. A perpetual frown on her face, she arrives at the ringside area where she climbs up onto the ring apron and straight inside of the ring. Tempest stands in the center of the ring, her arms held out and turns full circle before moving to her corner.
Simone: This is Tempest's first crack at the World Bombshell Title and after winning the Internet Championship earlier this year she looks to end the year with the top prize of the division!
Adams: Kayla's strikes vs. Tempest's raw power, who will hold out?
Dawn goes over the rules with both women and hands the title over to a stage hand after signalling for the cage to descend, once it's around the ring she calls for the bell.
DING DING DING!
Simone: And this match is underway!
Adams: And Kayla's going right on the attack!
Indeed, as soon as the bell Kayla launches right at Tempest unloading rights and lefts to the larger woman's head and chest, once the element of surprise wears off Tempest shoves Kayla away but Kayla rolls to her feet and goes right back at it, until she tries to headbutt Tempest at which point Tempest knocks the champion down with a headbutt of her own! Tempest then picks Kayla up from the matt in a front slam position before ramming her back first into the cage wall three times before finishing off with a Powerslam!
Simone: Kayla took the fight right to Tempest but in the end Tempest's strength proved to be too much!
Adams: Kayla's used to defending her title against women a lot closer to her size than Tempest because, well, the only other woman who comes close to Tempest's size is Bobbie and she was one of the women Tempest beat to earn this match!
Tempest goes for a pin!
ONE!
TWO!
And Kayla gets the shoulder up, Tempest shakes her head before picking up Kayla and going for her signature Samoan Drop only for Kayla to rake Tempest's eyes and uses the momentary stun to slip out the back of Tempest's grip before Kayla leaps on Tempest's back, locking in a Sleeper Hold on Tempest, Tempest tries to fight it by ramming Kayla back first into the cage wall a few times but Kayla manages to keep her grip in spite of this and Tempest eventually drops to her knees.
Simone: It took some underhanded tactics and a lot of determination but Kayla has Tempest in that Sleeper Hold!
Adams: I'd question why Kayla isn't transitioning into the Ghostlock but I guess she doesn't want to risk Tempest turning things round mid transition.
Dawn gets into position to check on Tempest as she starts to fade but on the second hand raise Tempest comes to life and stands up with Kayla still on her back! Kayla tries to crank up the pressure on the submission hold but Tempest finally breaks the champ's grip by ramming her into a far corner with a lot of force! Tempest then runs to the opposite side of the ring and charges into Kayla's corner, squashing Kayla in the process.
Simone: I could've sworn I saw the ring move after Tempest broke Kayla's grip!
Adams: And that was before Tempest turned Kayla into a champion pancake!
Tempest follows that up with a military press slam in the middle of the ring before she goes for a pin!
ONE!
TWO!
And Kayla kicks out! Tempest shakes her head before deciding to try to end the match another way, namely by climbing up the cage, she gets about halfway up the cage before Kayla catches Tempest with a leaping kick, stunning Tempest and allowing Kayla to grab the challenger by the legs and hit her with a Running Powerbomb! Kayla then starts ramming forearms into Tempest's head for good measure and goes for the pin!
ONE!
TWO!
AND TEMPEST KICKS OUT WITH FORCE!
Simone: Kayla clearly thought she had the match but Tempest isn't staying down.
Adams: She's learning the same lesson everyone else who has wrestled Tempest has learned, it takes a LOT to keep Tempest down for the three and Kayla's going to have to go all out!
Kayla looks at Dawn in disbelief before she tries the same method Tempest just tried to get out of the cage as the Brit starts climbing the cage wall! However Tempest soon follows her up and drives a hard forearm into Kayla's lower back before Tempest tries to hit Kayla with a German Suplex off the cage wall! However Kayla turns it into a cross body mid-air and both Bombshells come crashing down to the matt! Kayla stays on top of Tempest for another pin.
ONE!
TWO!
And TEMPEST POWERS OUT!
Simone: That move took a lot out of both women but Tempest still isn't staying down no matter what Kayla throws at her.
Adams: I'm not so sure because neither Tempest or Kayla are getting up!
Indeed, both champion and challenger are down and normally at this point Dawn would start a ten count to see who would get up first, if at all, however due to the rules of a Steel Cage Match all she can do is stand back and wait for either Tempest or Kayla to get to their feet! Eventually Kayla gets back to her feet first and stops to catch her breath, which proves to be a big mistake as Tempest grabs Kayla by the hair and yeets her into three of the four sides of the cage wall and finally picks the champ up over her shoulder and launches her into the fourth side with a running start!
Simone: Kayla's face just had a intimate meeting with the cage wall four times over!
Adams: I thought the fourth cage wall was going to fall with the force Tempest put into that throw!
Kayla flips over backwards off the impact on the fourth collision and Tempest goes for a pin!
ONE!
TWO!
And Kayla BARELY kicks out! Tempest outright marches Dawn into a corner demanding to know why that wasn't three but the much smaller woman doesn't back down, insisting that her pinfall was fair even as Tempest leans down to glare at her! Suddenly Kayla leaps off the side of the cage wall and connects with a Sunset Flip on Tempest and holds on for a pin!
ONE!
TWO!
AND TEMPEST REVERSES IT AND HOISTS KAYLA UP FOR THE AMAZON PRIME!
Simone: That Sunset Flip may have caught Tempest off guard but it may also cost Kayla the title if Tempest hits the Amazon Prime!
Adams: She hit that move on Song to earn this chance, will Tempest use it to earn her first World Title?
However Kayla manages to slip out the back of Tempest's finisher, leap to the top rope and hit Tempest with the Dreamkiller! But Tempest is merely stunned by the move so Kayla does it again this time dropping Tempest to her knees!
Simone: TWO DREAMKILLERS AND TEMPEST IS ONLY ON HER KNEES?!
Adams: What are they putting into the water supply at the Go Gym and can I have some? Usually it takes only one Dreamkiller to keep Kayla's opponent down!
Kayla lets out a war cry before she bounces off the ropes three times in a row and uses that momentum to hit a third Dreamkiller finally knocking down Tempest! Kayla goes for a pin!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
DING DING DING!
Justin: HERE IS YOUR WINNER AND STILL WORLD BOMBSHELL CHAMPION, "THE DREAMKILLER" KAYLA RICHARDS!
Simone: Kayla retains in what has to be her toughest defence to date against Tempest!
Adams: Not to mention a MOTY candidate!
Kayla celebrates her win, utterly exhausted, while Dawn checks on Tempest.
By now the cameras had left the backstage area and were settling on the ringside area. Jasmine could be seen walking down the ramp way in order to get ready to officiate the next match up. As she was walking down to the ring behind her the screen let up, starting to flash a message.
The message flashed for a couple seconds more. Before the screen found itself going to black again. There was another slow shot of the crowd in attendance. The fans could be seen discussing amongst themselves with a very puzzled look. One that matched their expressions from earlier in the night. That's when the cameras cut over to the commentator's table.
Simone: ... Are you at peace, Jason?
Adams: I mean I was until I saw that. That's a little unsettling and certainly a way to disturb someone's peace.
Simone: Well speaking of disturbing someone's peace. Our very next match scheduled tonight is the SCW Roulette Championship match. Jayden Harris is taking on the likes of Kevin Carter, J2H, and the champion himself, Alexander Raven in a Roulette Gauntlet Rules match.
Adams: I still think Jayden has lost his mind and this is the first time I've questioned a Mark Ward decision in a long time. This is really putting Jayden in a bad position, but it is what he asked for.
Simone: Indeed it is. And for those that are unfamiliar with the rules. Allow us to remind you once again how this works. Jayden will take on one man at a time in a match stipulation that will change time Jayden wins, should he win.
Adams: It's a very big IF, but if Jayden makes it through all three men. He will be crowned the new SCW Roulette Champion. However at any given point should Jayden take a loss. The match is over and no matter who defeats Jayden. Alexander Raven will remain the champion!
Simone: There is a lot riding on this match as you folks can tell. Let's go ahead and get back down to the ring where Jasmine is ready to officiate this thing.
Right as those words left the mouth of Belinda. The cameras cut back down towards the ring where Jasmine had climbed into the ring by now and she was checking the ropes to make sure they were secure. Fans' excitement started to be heard again as they couldn't wait for the match to begin.
The surge of excitement from the jam packed arena could be felt. Each fan in attendance had high vibes, but little did they know they were about to be brought down. The opening beat to "Bad Man" by Polo G began to play over the building's speakers. That was more than enough to start turning those high vibes into low ones. From the song alone it had the crowd booing pretty heavily. Letting their voices be heard even if it wouldn't change anything as far as the outcome goes.
Cameras found themselves cutting over towards the ring entrance area. Standing right there peering out into the sea of fans with a bit of a sour expression on his face was none other than "The Brat" himself. Jayden's sour expression didn't let up for even a second. Letting the boos being thrown in his direction simply roll off his back. Thumbing over his nose briefly, he began to march towards the ring.
Justin: The following contest is a Roulette Gauntlet Match. Entering match one at this time. From Chicago, Illinois. Weighing in at two hundred and five pounds. The Brat, JAAAAAYYYDEEENNN HAAARRRIIIISSSS!
By that point Jayden had made his way towards the ringside area. Ignoring the rude remarks being tossed in his direction by those fans with the front row seats. He found himself stopping right at the ring steps to peer around the arena with that same soured expression. There was a slight eye roll that escaped the second generation wrestler. Before he began to journey up the steps and walk across the ring apron.
Once Jayden hit the middle of the apron. He swung his left leg over the middle rope and climbed inside the ring. That bombastic side eye on his expression said everything it needed to say. He was not interested in being bothered. Approaching one of the corners of the ring. Leaning chest first into the corner and glaring out at the crowd. Simply waiting for the bell to ring for the scheduled contest.
Adams: Jayden looks focused tonight. Then again he always looks focused, but that's a good thing. He cannot afford to be unfocused for even a second tonight.
Simone: For months now these three men have been making Jayden's life a living hell one way or another. Then they really crossed the line for dumping his father into the sea back at Summer
XTreme. Making the legend meet his demise. Jayden has been out for revenge ever since.Adams: And I have been a supporter of Jayden getting that measure of revenge. I just don't think this is the way to go about it. Way more cons than there are pros.
The venue was filled with an excited crowd. Lots and lots of cheers. As well as chatter could be heard throughout as they were all patiently awaiting the next bit of action to take place. There was a sudden dim of the venue lights. Only to be replaced with the flashes of green and white strobe lights. All while the opening to "The Devil In I" by SlipKnot began to play over the speaker system. Those first couple of notes had the crowd's tune changing. Boos ringing out heavily and for no other reason than they were not the least bit pleased with who was about to make their way out.
Only a few seconds had passed before the camera angle had changed just in time to see the curtain being pushed aside and the man of the hour stepping through said curtain. In an all black zip up hoodie with the hood up was none other than the Entity of Sin City Wrestling, Kevin Carter. He stood there at the top of the makeshift ramp with a glare in his eyes while glaring out at the booing fans. His facial expressions said it all. Feeling a certain amount of disgust in having to be before them, but he just ignored their boos as he began to make his journey down to the ring.
Justin: And now Introducing his opponent for this match! From the most vile part of Los Angeles, California. Weighing in at two hundred and eighteen pounds. He is a true Scumbag. The Entity of Sin City Wrestling, KEVIN CARTER!
By the time the proper introduction had come to an end from Justin, he had reached the ringside area. A short little jog Kevin leaped onto the ring apron planting his right knee pad into the mat and using the ropes to pull himself up to a vertical basis on the ring apron. The boos seemed to have only gotten louder in that few moments he made his way down to the ring. As he stood there the man proceeded to bring both his hands up in the air with a middle finger on each hand. As one would have expected, it didn't do Kevin any favors. Not by a long shot.
All types of comments were starting to be hurled in his direction along with those boos. Kevin smirked with hatred as he lowered his hands and then gripped the top rope with his left hand before swinging one leg over the middle rope. Ducking down under the top rope to finish climbing into the ring. In a true prick fashion, he took what appeared to be a small 'victory' lap around the ring culminating in him stopping in the middle of the ring. Dropping to his knees and flipping his hood back to his jacket before tossing his arms out at his side. The boos continued to ring in from the disapproving crowd as Kevin smirked a little more. Undoing his jacket as he stood up to his feet. The music started to fade out as he retreated to his corner tossing said jacket to the floor.
Simone: A lot of people have said that Kevin is the mastermind behind this trio featuring him, J2H and Alexander Raven. If that's the case. I'm not sure I am going to like what the game plan might end up being for this match.
Adams: I don't think there is one mastermind to these three. I think they're all equally masterminds and evil ones at that. However, you are correct. It's terrifying to think about what they may have cooked up for this gauntlet match.
Simone: This is nerve racking to even get ready to call. This might end up being the match of the night. Match of the year. Hell match of next decade and it's all because of hatred!
Justin: The first match of this gauntlet will be contested in a Strap Match!
DING DING DING!
Jasmine had finished securing the leather strap around both men's wrist when the bell rang. As soon as it was heard Jayden yanked on the strap pulling Carter right towards him as he landed a huge punch that knocked Carter down right away. Jayden wasn't going to give the man a chance to even stand up as grabbed some of the access of that strap, folding it up and starting to whip it across the back of the Scumbag. Carter rises in agony with Jayden continuing to whip that strap across his back.
Adams: Jayden is laying into Carter with that strap here in the early going.
Simone: Indeed he is, and it's all legal. However, I do want to take the time to inform everyone. We just got word from the back this isn't your traditional strap match.
Adams: Nope, in the traditional one. You have to touch all four corners to win.
Simone: But in this variation of a strap match. Pinfalls and submissions are allowed! Along with there being no disqualifications or count outs, obviously.
Adams: This is going to be something special!
By now Jayden had stalked Carter who had crawled over to one of the corners. Using the ropes to help pull himself up, but Jayden quickly took that strap and whipped it across Carter's back causing him to scream out in agony again. From there Jayden walked right up behind Carter and took that extra of the leather strap, starting to wrap it around the man's head and neck. Yet, Carter could sense what was about to happen.
He quickly kicked his leg backwards and caught Jayden with a low blow. As soon as it struck Jayden let go of the extra of the strap and found himself taking a couple of steps backwards holding the crotch area where he had been kicked. Carter turned himself around and then proceeded to drill the second generation superstar with a SHUFFLE SIDE KICK right to the temple, knocking him off his feet. As one might have expected the boos came rolling in from the fans in attendance.
Simone: That dirty s.o.b! Of course he would go low with a kick.
Adams: We knew how this was going to play out Belinda. There's no way these men are going to play fair, especially when the rules don't state that they have to.
Simone: I know that but for once it would be nice for them to either play fair or at the very least admit they're afraid of this man if they're going to keep cutting corners.
Jayden had rolled over to his knees to try and stand up, but it was now Carter's turn to unload. Taking extra of that strap and cracking it across the shoulder blades of the Brat putting him back down. Again, Carter whipped that strap across his shoulders. Now starting to cause Jayden to shout in agony. Carter then found himself stepping over Jayden.
Reaching for the man's legs as he lifted them up and began to wrap some of the strap around the legs of the second generation star. Before pulling up on the strap and using a little more to wrap it around the neck of Jayden. Only to find himself dropping down to his back as he locked the Brat in a modified version of a BOW AND ARROW submission. Tightening up on the strap around Jayden's throat while putting his knees in his back.
Adams: Oh my! You can see the blood rushing to Jayden's face thanks to that strap around his neck.
Simone: Carter is out here trying to cause serious harm to Jasmine. This shouldn't be allowed!
Adams: Again, this is what Jayden asked for and you know how the Roulette Division is. It's designed to really test someone's skill set.
Jayden could be seen trying to dig his fingers in between the strap and his neck to relieve some pressure. All while Jasmine leaned down there to check and see if he was going to tap out or not. All of the sudden Jayden used his momentum to flip over as he landed on top of Carter for a quick cover.
ONE!
Quickly, Carter kicked out as he grabbed that strap while he got to his feet. Jayden was starting to stand up, but as he did so. Carter yanked on that strap as it was still around his neck causing the second generation star to flip upside down and land straight on his head and neck. Jasmine dropped down right away to check on the man, but Carter was right there to move her out of the way. Dropping down to his knees to unwrap the strap from around Jayden's neck as he mounted him to reign down with punches.
After the third punch to Jayden's face. Carter rolled right off him and then got to his feet. Only to reach down and grab a hold of the second generational talent to pull him up some. Shifting to a position where he was now behind Jayden. Carter hooked him by the arm and head before driving him back down on his head and neck this time for "NO MORE MEMORIES"! Jayden spiked onto his head before falling over and leaving himself in a prone position. Carter dropped down to make the cover.
ONE!
TWO!
JAYDEN KICKS OUT!
Simone: Big kick out from Jayden. Kevin has to know by now it's going to take a lot more than that.
Adams: We've seen Jayden go through hell week in and week out with the three men he is facing tonight. He takes their best shots and keeps fighting.
Simone: Speaking of the history amongst them. Let's not forget that Jayden has defeated all three men in some fashion or another. Couple weeks ago he pinned Kevin.
Adams: Back at Summer
Xtreme, he choked J2H into submission.Simone: And even though it ended in disqualification. He also defeated Alexander. These three have to have that in the back of their minds and it has to have them worried.
Carter didn't seem the least bit bothered by Jayden being able to kick out. Instead he got right up to his feet pulling Jayden up with him. Wasting no time at all Carter scooped Jayden right onto his shoulders. But as soon as he did Jayden took his fingers and began to dig them right into the eyes of the Scumbag as it blinded Carter long enough for him to slip down off his shoulders. Jayden spun Carter around as he landed a massive UPPERCUT PUNCH causing the man to go stumbling back into the corner.
Jayden took no time at all to come running forward. Carter had no time to react with the second generation star leaping into the air and catching him on the chin with "EYE ROLL" as he was trapped in the corner. The dazed and confused Carter came stumbling out of the corner after allowing Jayden to hook the man and lift him up before catching him on the chin again but this time with "NEXTGEN" causing Carter to drop to his knees looking out of it. Jayden was right back on his feet as he sprinted forward.
He hit the ropes with all that he had. Bouncing off them and coming right back to a kneeling Carter to deliver a nasty blow to the back of the neck with "THE BEHEADING" sending him face down. Jayden rolled Carter over to be able to make the cover.
Adams: That was one hell of a combo from Jayden!
ONE!
Simone: And what we have learned when it comes to that young man. He hits hard. One of the hardest hitting people we have on the roster.
TWO!
Adams: I have no doubt at all Jayden put Carter through a loop with those strikes! Man has to be seeing stars right now!
T-NOPE!
CARTER KICKS OUT WITH FORCE!
Simone: The two-time Heavyweight Champion said not today!
Adams: Might not like Kevin. I'd go as far as saying I loathe the man, but you cannot deny the type of competitor he is.
Jayden looked more annoyed than anything else at the fact the man had the nerve to keep fighting. He found himself standing right up as he grabbed a hold of Carter by the head and started to pull him up. All of the sudden Carter brought his arm up for another LOW BLO-NOOOO! Jayden quickly caught the hand of Carter to prevent the strike as he shook his head in a menacing manner. He yanked Carter up, but as he did Carter struck with a HEAD BUTT to daze Jayden for the moment.
As soon as he connected with it. Carter had some type of plan as he went to head for the ropes to get out of the ring. However, Jayden quickly grabbed a hold of the strap with both hands to stop Carter in his tracks. Carter looked pissed off as he kept trying to get to the ropes and pull himself free, but Jayden's strength wasn't allowing it. All of the sudden Jayden forcefully pulled on the strap to bring Carter in for a BACK BODY DRO-NOOO!
As he came in Carter wrapped his arms around Jayden's waist as he also trapped the man's head between his legs. That way when Jayden flipped him and the momentum carried him over. Carter was able to flip Jayden in return, connecting with "THE MAIN ATTRACTION"! In the middle of the ring spiking the young man on his head and neck for a third time. The crowd looked around and gasped in shock over what they had just witnessed.
Simone: The Main Attraction?! We haven't seen him utilize that move since two thousand and thirteen!
Adams: Kevin is digging deep-deep into his bag of tricks to make sure this match doesn't go any further than with him!
Simone: That very well might have done it! Not too many people have ever been able to kick out of that move!
The shock had started to wear off for Carter. As he found himself grabbing a hold of the second generation star and rolling him off his stomach to put him on his back. He hooked both of Jayden's legs for the extra cover as he made the pin attempt. Jasmine dropping down to make that count.
ONE!
Adams: This is what I was afraid of. Jayden bit off more than he could chew.
TWO!
Simone: There's not a chance it ends here. I refuse to believe that. It's not in Jayden's nature to go down so easily!
THR-NOOOOO!
JAYDEN KICKS OUT WITH FORCE!
Adams: Oh my! He did it! He kicked out!
Simone: What did I tell you, Jason?!
Adams: That takes some serious strength to kick out a move like that!
The look on Carter's face said it all. He couldn't believe what had just happened. He began to scream at Jasmine but she stood by her decision that the man kicked out in time. Right then Carter got up to his feet in a rage. Only to turn back around and grab ahold of the hair of Jayden pulling him up. Holding him by his hair and face he was shouting at him. Only to take his hand and slam across the face of Jayden with a complete and utter lack of respect for the young man.
That slap seemed to trigger something in Jayden as he fired back with a series of punches right to the face of Carter. Lefts and rights just connected as he backed the scumbag up across the ring. Once he had him up against the ropes. Jayden took some of the extra of that strap and found himself wrapping it around the neck of Carter before grabbing him and then running across the ring THROWING Carter over the top rope and then yanking on the strap causing Carter to dangle over it by the strap.
Simone: Jayden is choking Kevin! He's legitimately choking him!
Adams: Jasmine has to intervene here. This is dangerous on a different level!
Simone: No. You knew the rules. No disqualification. No count outs. No rope break. Just using that strap however to get a win.
Inside the ring Jayden was putting his foot on the middle rope as he pushed against it while yanking even harder on that strap. Carter could be seen starting to turn purple in the face while he attempted to dig his fingers in between the strap and his neck to save himself. However, before he could, the lack of oxygen caught up to Carter as he passed out while being choked. Jasmine quickly took notice as she called for the bell.
DING DING DING!
Justin: Jasmine has ruled Kevin unconscious and unable to continue! Therefore Jayden will move onto the next match!
Jasmine is still doing her job to protect the wrestlers. Gripping at Jayden's hands to force him to let go of the strap as Carter's limp body fell to the floor on the outside. Jayden yanked his wrist free of the strap as he tossed it out of the ring and turned his attention to the stage. Waving on the next man.
Adams: Wow! I did not expect Jayden to win like that!
Simone: The man's buttons have no doubt been pushed. He, just like those three, are going to go to extreme lengths.
Adams: But who is it going to be?! What type of match will it be?!
About that time "Lights Out" by P.O.D could be heard starting to play throughout the arena. This resulted in the crowd finding themselves booing pretty heavily. Jayden still focused on the entrance way expecting the man to come out at any given moment. However little did Jayden know J2H was seen sprinting and hopping over the barricade behind him. He slid right into the ring and blasted Jayden in the back of the head with a forearm to knock him down.
Justin: The second match to this Gauntlet will be contested under Bloody Massacre rules! You can only win the match by pinfall or submission, but only after you have busted your opponent open!
DING DING DING!
The crowd were booing even louder now with J2H mounting the back of Jayden while driving his elbows into the back of the man's head and into his neck to keep him grounded. After another blow J2H found himself standing up and taking a couple of steps backwards. Only for himself to zero in on the head of Jayden. As soon as the second generation star tried to push himself up. It was J2H that came rushing in and delivered a nasty PUNT KICK right to the head of Jayden to put him face down in the mat again.
Simone: From behind?! Why am I not even surprised at this point?!
Adams: Keep in mind Belinda. J2H and Jayden's issues go back to over a year ago. Jayden tried to end J2H's career and even his life by running him over. This is always going to be a deeply rooted issue!
Simone: At least meet the man head on. That's all I am trying to say right now Jason.
Adams: Not how this works when the issues are this real. Jayden would have likely done the same thing if the shoe was on the other foot.
Simone: I don't know if I believe that.
J2H could be seen dropping down on his back and rolling out of the ring. He stormed right over to the time keeper's table and screamed at Justin to move. Right away he did, leading to J2H grabbing the steel chair he was sitting in and turning back towards the ring. He tossed the chair in and then slid himself in. By that point Jayden was using the ropes to help pull himself up to his feet. Letting go of them and turned around right as J2H was swinging that chair CRACKING it over the top of his head.
Simone: Oh my goodness! You could hear that chair shot throughout this entire arena!
Adams: And we got blood! We have blood!
J2H stood over Jayden for a moment as he looked down at him. In a matter of seconds blood had come rushing down from the top of his skull and turning his entire face into a crimson mask. That somehow wasn't good enough for J2H. He grabbed a hold of the chair of Jayden forcing the man to be in a sittion position barely able to stay that way, but he didn't need to stay there long. J2H taking that chair and just SMACKING it against the brat's face for a second time laying him out. Ditching the chair out of the ring J2H then made the cover.
ONE!
TWO!
THR-NOOOOOOO!
JAYDEN POPS THAT SHOULDER UP!
Adams: Jayden isn't out of this thing yet!
Simone: But he is at a severe disadvantage! He's the only one breeding and therefore the only one able to actually lose right now!
This did nothing but drive J2H mad. He found himself mounting Jayden once again, but this time in a front facing position. Taking those fists of his and just drilling Jayden in the head over and over again. Making sure those punches connected with that wound to further open it up. The blood really started to gush all over the mat and his face with those punches. On the last punch, J2H stood himself up and took one look at his fist that was now drenched in blood. A proud smirk crossed the Hall of Famer's lips.
He reached down and grabbed a hold of Jayden's hair starting to drag the blood soaked man across the ring towards one of the corners. Once he was where he needed to be, he pulled Jayden up just a little more only to take him down with a SWINGING NECKBREAKER right there in the corner of the ring. J2H hopped right back to his feet as he found himself starting to step through the ring ropes and onto the ring apron. Fans were letting their voices be heard. They could not stand the man, but it didn't matter.
He loved the hatred they had for him. In a matter of seconds he was standing on the top rope. Taking one look at Jayden before throwing himself from the top and coming down harshly on Jayden with "21ST CENTURY SPLASH" to another uproar of boos from the crowd. Right away J2H hooked the man's leg going for the cover a second time.
Simone: Signature frog splash from J2H!
Adams: This has been a move that has led to a couple impressive victories throughout this legend's career!
ONE!
Adams: Being in one match before this one is really starting to show its ugly head. Going back to what I have been saying. This is the biggest mistake Jayden could make.
Simone: He's still got one man defeated tonight. I think he'll defeat the other two and debunk the theory that it was a mistake but we'll see.
TWO!
Simone: If this man gets past J2H. You'd have to say the worst of it is over.
Adams: I don't know about all of that. Alexander is a problem in his own right.
Simone: But he's done nothing but play back up to these two! He's not really asserted himself to be a true threat.
Adams: Matter of opinion there, Belinda!
THRE-NOOOOO!JAYDEN KICKS OUT AGAIN!
Adams: Again?! He kicked out again?!
Simone: I told you, Jason. Don't count this man out. Jayden very much knows what he's doing!
J2H slammed his hands down against the mat in frustration and found himself quickly getting up as he got in Jasmine's face cornering her. Motioning for her to count faster, but she just pointed to her shirt to remind him who was truly in charge. The frustrated J2H found himself dropping down and rolling out of the ring again. Going right for the chair he had introduced moments ago to split Jayden open. Snatching it up and sliding back in the ring with it.
Gripping the chair even harder this time as he stood up this time. He had every intention of taking Jayden's head off. The way he stood behind the man and stalked him. Daring him to stand up on his own two feet. Using the ropes that were in front of him. The bloody Jayden finally was able to pull himself up. His legs were wobbly as he let go and turned around with J2H swinging that chair with all his might, but this time Jayden DUCKED under the chair shot.
J2H swung wildly and realized he missed. Turning back around with that chair in hand. Jayden was waiting for him as he leaped into the air and connected with "EYE ROLL" driving his fist into the chair and causing it to slam into J2H's face. Both men hitting the mat with force and just lying there seemingly out of it for the time being. There was a close up of J2H's face as it was revealed the chair had busted him open right above the eyebrow.
Simone: James is leaking now! Got him right above the eyebrow with that chair!
Adams: It's truly fair game now, but I think that was Jayden's best and final shot. I don't know that he's going to be able to capitalize here.
Simone: All it takes is that one moment. That one moment to turn everything around and I think this is that moment. I really do!
Adams: And you may end up being wrong, Belinda.
A bloody Jayden lifted his head up briefly and took notice of the blood pooling from J2H's head. That was enough to make him start crawling over towards J2H. Little by little he got closer, just enough to be able to throw his arm across the chest of J2H in hopes that the match would come to an end.
ONE!
TWO!
J2H KICKS OUT RIGHT AWAY!
Boos were heard from the crowd. As they wanted it to be over just as much as Jayden had wanted it to be but clearly that wasn't going to be the case. Jayden slowly rolled himself over as he used his hands to try and clear his face of all that blood that was soaking it. Only to roll over again to his knees and try to push himself up to his feet. At the same time J2H was starting to get up to his feet as well. In a matter of seconds both men shot to their feet.
Jayden fired first with a huge right hand to a loud reaction from the crowd. J2H stumbled back for a brief moment as he then recovered and came back with his own punch. Lots and lots of boos heard the moment he connected. It had Jayden on wobbly legs with that punch, but he quickly found a way to come back with another punch of his own to a loud reaction. J2H displayed a look of anger as he came right back himself with another punch to a negative reaction. This prompted the two of them to start engaging in a full blown hockey style brawl right in the middle of the ring.
Adams: These two are out here just throwing hands now!
Simone: The hatred for one another is boiling over. Especially since there is so much riding on the line here!
Finally, it was Jayden that got the upperhand when he landed a huge EUROPEAN UPPERCUT right under the jaw of J2H to break them apart and send him backwards. Once he recovered Jayden landed a stiff kick right into the man's gut and then came right up behind him. Wrapping both his arms around J2H's neck and locked in "INTO THE LIGHT" while standing in the middle of the ring. Jayden was trying to use his weight to bring the man down with the submission in tight, but J2H was fighting it.
A last ditch effort to break free. J2H rushed forward and used his feet to kick against the turnbuckle as they both went tumbling down to the mat. Jayden kept that submission held tight and did everything he could to choke out his biggest foe. The squeezing causing the blood to flow down J2H's face a little more. However with the way that J2H was able to kick off those ropes in the corner, it caused him to float over the top of Jayden and pin his shoulders down to the match despite the hold he was in.
Simone: J2H has the man trapped!
Adams: Jayden is going to have to let go!
Simone: But he's so close to making J2H tap! You can see it in his face!
Adams: But what is going to come first, the pin or the tap?!
ONE!
TWO!
THR-NOOOO!
JAYDEN LET GO OF THE SUBMISSION KICK OUT!
As soon as J2H was free from the hold he rolled over gasping for air. Jayden rolled over to his knees and then pushed himself up to his feet. He turned around and grabbed a hold of J2H's head to pull him up. Right away J2H was dirty and thumbed Jayden right in the eye to blind him for a moment. Jayden held his eye with both of his hands for a moment. This allowed J2H to come right up behind Jayden and grab a hold of his arm while spinning him around.
Quickly, it was J2H that twisted the arm and dropped down onto his back while driving his foot into the jaw of Jayden for "KISS THIS"! It sent Jayden flying back into the ropes. As J2H got right up to his feet, Jayden rebounded off the ropes and proceeded to drill J2H with everything he had for "THE BROOKLYN KNOCKOUT" causing J2H to fold up in half and land on his neck something fierce. The crowd in a frenzy for the move with Jayden throwing his arm over the chest of the Hall of Famer for the pin.
Adams: Jayden just hit his father's signature move on J2H!
ONE!
Simone: The very move that Michael pinned James with one year ago at Violent Conduct IX!
TWO!
Adams: Is history going to repeat itself?! Is Jayden going to win this match and move on?!
THREE!
Simone: He did it! He did it! Jayden has pinned J2H!
Adams: I cannot believe this! He's made it though Kevin and now J2H!
Simone: All that's left is Alexander. Jayden managed to do that and we got a new SCW Roulette Champion!
DING DING DING!
Justin: Here is your winner and moving onto the final match, JAYDEN HARRIS!
Inside the ring the bloody mess that was Jayden found himself rolling off of J2H and trying to crawl towards the corner. Jasmine started to help roll J2H over to the side of the ring to get him out. By that time "Watch The World Burn" by Falling In Reverse began to play throughout the 02 Arena. At the top of the entrance way a Casket could be seen starting to be walked down the ramp thanks to some of the backstage crew. Fans looked on with concern while Jayden started to pull himself up in the corner.
Justin: The final match of the SCW Roulette Match will be for the SCW Roulette Championship and will be contested in a Casket Match!
Just hearing the official match type didn't seem to settle well with the crowd. Jayden finally stumbled away from the corner as he glared at the casket that was now being put right up against the ring. All of the sudden the door was pushed wide open to reveal ALEXANDER RAVEN laying there in the casket. A wicked smirk crossed the man's lips as he began to stand up and then stepped out onto the apron. Glaring his challenger down with one hand on the rope and one hand behind his back. Jayden just begging him to come into the ring.
Simone: A casket match?! That's the final match?!
Adams: It's the luck of the draw with this division, but I don't think there's a more fitting match!
DING DING DING!
Jasmine was forcing Jayden to back up a little bit to give Raven that chance to get into the ring. The man found himself swinging one leg over the rope and then ducking down to get in. Jayden quickly blew past Jasmine and went on the attack. However it was something Raven had been waiting for as he revealed that he had been holding a metal stake behind his back.
As soon as Jayden grabbed him, he took it and jabbed it right into the open wound on the Brat's head. Dropping Jayden right where he stood as he grabbed his head and began to scream in agony. Raven standing over him laughing like a mad man. Seemingly loving the pain he was already inflicting on the man. Of course it was not what the fans wanted to see.
Adams: Oof! That did not feel good. I guarantee that!
Simone: Of course it didn't Jason! It was a metal stake to an open wound!
As if that wasn't good enough. Raven found himself leaning down and grabbing a handful of Jayden's hair and pulled the man up to where he was on his knees. Holding that stake up in his hand and began to unload with a series of jabs to the head. Not once, not twice, not even three times. No, Raven jabbed that metal stake right into the head of Jayden five separate times. Before throwing the stake and letting go of the bloody Jayden. Raven could be heard laughing once again in a menacing manner.
Jayden briefly lifted his head up and it was once again just covered in blood. The man looked like he had been through a car accident at this point. Once again Raven grabbed a hold of Jayden's hair and began to drag him over towards the side of the ring where the casket was. Once they were in position Raven picked Jayden up and then just threw him through the middle ropes like a piece of trash causing him to fall right into the casket. Then the man stepped out onto the apron and grabbed the lid to the casket.
Simone: I think even I have to finally admit this is it...
Adams: Jayden asked for every bit of this. There's nothing to be ashamed of, but this was just never going to go in his favor.
Raven SLAMMED the lid down, but just before it could close. Jayden REACHED up and grabbed the edge with his hand starting to push up so it couldn't seal shut. Raven became aggressive with it as he tried to use both of his hands and his entire weight to make sure it shut, but Jayden wasn't going down without a fight. With all his might he shoved the lid up as it caught Raven right in the face and sent him tumbling backwards into the ring.
Free from having the casket closing on him. The bloody Jayden forced himself to start crawling out of the casket. Rolling out of it right onto the ring apron. Before reaching up and grabbing the ropes to help stand himself up. Raven was now starting to scramble to get to his feet as the last thing he wanted to do was give Jayden a chance to get into the match. As he stood up, Jayden grabbed the ropes and SPRING into the air. As he was coming down Raven snatched him right out of the air and locked in "THE CONSPIRACY"! Jayden fell right to his knees as it gave Raven a chance to put that choke in a little deeper.
Adams: That signature bulldog choke of Raven is locked in tight!
Simone: The amount of blood Jayden has lost and now that choke. It's wearing him out! He's fading fast!
Adams: Won't lie though. This is very smart on Raven's behalf. If he chokes Jayden out. He's easy pickings to throw in that casket.
Simone: That's what I don't want to see happen! I know I have to be unbiased here, but I am rooting for this kid after all that's happened!
Jayden's eyes were seen getting heavy in a matter of seconds while in that choke. Once those eyes closed his entire body went limp as he was out cold. Raven let go of the man as he flopped down to the mat. Once again there was that wicked smirk across his lips. Allowing Raven to reach down and scoop Jayden off the mat and onto his shoulders. Starting to walk the man over to the casket once again with the crowd booing him heavily. Once he was close to the side of the ring.
Raven just dumped Jayden off his shoulders right back into the casket. The unconscious body just slumped into the casket. Raven found himself then stepping out onto the ring apron and holding his arms out at his side. In a taunting manner aiming to piss the crowd off as they gave the response he was looking for. The man then leaned down and grabbed a hold of the lid to the casket as he was about to close. Jayden reached up and PUNCHED Raven right in the CROTCH causing the man's eyes to go wide as he fell back into the ring.
The crowd was coming alive as Jayden lifted his head up out of the casket and just looked over at where Raven was. There was a look of desperation to survive in the eyes of the second generation talent as he tried to pull himself out of the casket once again.
Simone: After all three of them played dirty tonight. I don't blame Jayden one bit for that low blow!
Adams: It sure sounds like the crowd shares that shame type of statement.
Jayden finally flopped out of the casket and then onto the ring apron. Sliding himself under the bottom rope as he fought to his feet. Across the ring Raven was holding the downstairs business as he fought up to his own feet. As soon as he turned around Jayden caught him with a CLOTHESLINE taking him off his feet. Raven hit the mat as he got right back to his feet and ran right into another CLOTHESLINE from the Brat. Once again though Raven got to his feet and was blasted with a JUMPING FOREARM SMASH to take them both down for the time being.
All of the sudden Jayden could be seen KIPPING right up to his feet. That second wind finally hit the man as he turned that angry gaze to Raven. He grabbed the man by his beard and yanked Raven up to his feet. Before hooking him by the arm and head lifting him up going for "NEXTGE-NOOO"! Raven managed to block the knee with his hands as he then connected with a headbutt to create some space between them. Jayden only stumbled back a little bit but found himself charging forward seconds later.
Raven found himself ducking under the arm of Jayden while wrapping both of his arms around Jayden's waist while ending up behind him. Quickly taking Jayden over head with a GERMAN SUPLEX spiking Jayden's neck into the mat. However, Jayden rolled all the way right to his feet seemingly unphased by the move. Raven got up in a scramble as Jayden lunged forward and blasted the man with "EYE ROLL" right on the chin taking the champion down! The crowd's response was eclectic with Jayden getting back to his feet and throwing his hands in the air to get them behind him more.
Adams: Jayden has never looked more alive than he does right now!
Simone: Everything these men have put him through. Everything they've done to him and his family. It's all coming to a head right now!
The champion once again was fighting to get his feet. Jayden stalked right behind him as he stood up. That's when he reached out and grabbed a hold of Raven, and pulled him back towards him. Yet it was Raven that hit a BACK ELBOW right into the jaw to get Jayden away from him. That was the perfect chance for Raven it seemed as he grabbed the man from behind himself. Finding himself flipping Jayden upside down in an awkward position and holding him against his back.
Raven stepped to the center of the ring for "RAVEN'S SPI-NOOOOOO"! In the knick of time Jayden flipped backwards and managed to land on his feet and avoid the move stumbling back in the corner. By the time Raven turned around he was not ready for what came next. Jayden exploded from the corner and leaped into the air grabbing the man by his head and drove Raven down onto it with "BORN BETTER"! Raven's head spiked off the mat as he got to his feet in a daze.
Lights were on, but there was no one home. Jayden shot to his feet as he rushed to the ropes and hit them with all he had. Bouncing off them and coming to take Raven off his feet again with "THE BROOKLYN KNOCKOUT" folding the man up on his neck similar to what he had done to J2H! He rose to his knees with a confident smirk of his own with the crowd cheering for him.
Simone: That's it! That's gotta be it!
Adams: All he has to do is put Raven in that casket and this match is over!
Simone: We're about to crown ourselves a brand new SCW Roulette Champion!
Adams: The entire landscape of SCW could change with Jayden in control of this division!
Jayden found it in himself to stand up as he grabbed a hold of Raven's limp body. Taking a couple of steps over to the casket, dragging Raven along. He got him right where he needed him to be as he dropped down to his knees and rolled Raven under the bottom rope then into the casket. Jayden shot right back to his feet as he reached through the ropes and grabbed a hold of the lid to the casket. As he started to shut it... KEVN CARTER and J2H slid in behind Jayden clubbing him from behind putting a stop to it. As they continued with their blows they dragged Jayden away from the casket.
Adams: I knew it, I knew it was just a matter of time before they struck!
Simone: Come on Jasmine! Do something here!
Adams: What is she going to do?! This isn't against the rules technically!
Simone: This is a bunch of bull!
Carter found himself trapping the arms of Jayden behind his back. Holding him in place with J2H unloading with punch after punch to the head of the challenger until he got Jayden down on his knees where Carter kept him in position. J2H took a couple of steps backwards and then came running forward with a BOOT TO THE FA-NOOO! Jayden managed to break free as J2H ended up kicking Carter low and dropping the man to his feet. Before J2H even had a chance to turn around Jayden grabbed the man by the back of his head and tossed him out of the ring. His attention turned back to Carter who was trying to get up. He grabbed a hold of him and did the same thing, tossed him right out of the ring.
Simone: That was short lived! Jayden took out the trash with ease!
Adams: I didn't see that coming at all!
Of course the crowd was alive and showing their support for the man. Jayden stood there inviting them back into the ring. Carter and J2H came together as they started to approach the ring again as if they were going to. That's when Raven appeared behind him with a CINDER BLOCK in hands and proceeded to BLAST the second generation star in the back of the head. Jayden was unconscious before he even hit the mat from the blunt force to the back of his head.
Adams: ... Oh no!
Simone: Was that a cinder block?!
Adams: It was... I'm afraid.
The boos that would have normally been heard. There wasn't a single sound coming from the crowd. The sheer shock of what they had just witnessed seemed to cover every one of their faces. Raven stood over Jayden's body dropping the cinder block from his hands as it hit the mat with a thud. Jasmine herself stood there in shock knowing there wasn't anything she could do. J2H and Carter found themselves sliding into the ring at that moment.
With them in the ring Raven, Carter, and J2H all grabbed the deadweight of Jayden's body and lifted it up. Taking a couple of steps over towards the casket at ringside. Dropping his body into it with no regard. The three of them took a second to admire that handy work. A smirk crossed each of their lips as if they were truly proud of what they achieved. Raven reached for the lid and then SLAMMED IT CLOSE for the match to come to an end. Jasmine instantly called for the bell.
DING DING DING!
Justin: Here is your winner and STILL the SCW Roulette Champion, AAALLEEE
AAANNNNDDDERRRRR RAAAAAAVVVVEEEEENNNN!All three men had walked away from the casket as Carter walked over and called for the championship. Right away Justin came running to the side of the ring with it in his hands handing it over. Carter turned back around and began to strap it around the waist of his partner. Jasmine had bailed from the ring as she opened the casket and was starting to scream and wave for the medical team to come out from the back. Seconds later they could be seen sprinting from the back.
Simone: This... this went too far... It went too far, Jason.
Adams: I said it over and over again. Jayden was not thinking smartly when making this challenge. All three of them just made him regret that decision.
Simone: Alexander didn't have to hit him with a damn cinder block!
Adams: No, he didn't have to. But we knew this man was deranged! We knew he was unhinged. We knew he was unpredictable. And he wasn't letting that championship go!
Simone: I don't care about his goals or his championship. This man could have just ended a young man's career for no good reason! No one can change my mind on that!
Two EMTs could be seen placing a board down on the ring apron. Another two of them were seen climbing into the casket to help secure a neck brace around the unconscious Jayden. Off inside the ring Carter and J2H could be seen scooping Alexander up, putting the champion on their shoulders. With all three of them still featuring those sinister smirks as they watched them carefully lift Jayden out of the casket and put him on the board. As they then slid it into the stretcher. The crowd was still watching in silence. That was the last image seen at ringside as the cameras cut away for the time being.
The feed cut to the backstage area to the locker room of "The Miracle" Kris Ryans. The door opens, and out comes Kris, finally changed out of his street clothes and into his ring gear. There are no more party balloons, or kids running around. No more distractions. He passes by the camera wordlessly, and starts heading through the hallways towards the control room. Once there, he would wait behind the curtain for his music to start, and then he would be off to the races. None of the backstage technicians get in his way as he walks down the hallway, and nobody dared to try and speak to him. As he rounded the corner into the control room though, he stops in his tracks and waits as the camera moves around him to see who has stopped him. There is an immediate pop from the crowd in attendance that the duo hear backstage.
Jason: You didn't think that I'd skip out on sending you off, did you?
Kris smiles as a "JET CITY" chant breaks out in the crowd in support of Kris' brother. The duo spent more than a year playing around in the original tag division, and it was fun that the fans remembered their time together fondly. Jason points up at the ceiling, referencing the raucous crowd above them.
Jason: …and you didn't think they'd remember me…
A voice from over Kris' shoulder gets him to spin away, but we have to wait for the camera to locate the source. Sitting behind where Kris walked up, on top of a stack of crates was the youngest of the three brothers, not yet old enough to be doing anything in the ring himself, but definitely enjoying the backstage environment.
Max: You think any of them will remember either of you by the time I am old enough to be on the roster?
Before either of the brothers can respond, Kris' father steps up and fields that question for them
Holdan: I don't think we are all in agreement that is the best path for you kid. Look at these two! They have both clearly taken too many blows to the head. Neither of them are very bright anymore. One of them is even on his way to get slapped around by his replacement in this company.
Kris sighs, and opens his mouth like he is going to defend himself, but Jason claps a hand onto his shoulder and turns him back around.
Jason: Don't listen to him. Don't listen to Mikah or the kids. Definitely don't listen to Finn. Go out there and do what you do. Whatever happens, happens. At the end of the night, you are still going to be Kristopher FUCKING Ryans, you know that right?
Kris nods.
Kris: Yeah.
Jason shrugs as Holdan and Max come up to form a sort of huddle around Kris.
Max: Don't make it easy for him.
Jason: Remember, you're out there to take HIS spot. He can't have yours.
Holdan: Plus, if you fuck it up I'll still make a lot of money on it, and we can spend half the winnings making you feel better.
Jason pushes Holdan away from the other three, and makes sure that he has Kris' attention.
Jason: You can do this. Stay out of your head.
It was now time for the final match at Violent Conduct X, the camera returning to the ringside area and the London fans pressing against the barricade in their excitement for the grand finale. Justin Decent stands in the center of the ring, prepared to begin as Drew Patton climbs through the ropes. He shakes the hand of Justin and then takes his position in the nearby corner...
The lights shut off leaving the entire arena pitch black. The screen at the top of the ramp flashes to life with the words: DO YOU BELIEVE? Knowing what is coming the fans roar to life just as the PA blasts out the opening lyrics to the theme in the most booming fashion.
Two spotlights shine down on the stage as a remixed version of 30 Seconds to Mars "Walk on Water" plays through the PA system. Standing in the middle of the stage where the lights intersect is Kristopher Ryans with the SCW World Heavyweight Championship strapped around his waist, albeit upside down so that when he looks down it faces him.
The fans erupt with applause as he makes his way down the ramp. The white club symbol appears on the screen behind him. As he gets down to the bottom of the ramp, the camera passes him, circling around his side to see the orange letters on his white shorts reading "MIRACLE" down his right leg. We get behind him as he ascends the stairs, seeing that the back of his jacket displays the KR logo in the same shade of orange. He walks one side of the ring before stepping between the ropes before raising both arms up to the cheering crowd.
Simone: The Hall of Famer, Kris Ryans, with a golden opportunity to become a three-time World Heavyweight Champion!
Adams: If ANYONE can unseat Finn Whelan as the champion, Kris Ryans is the one to do it!
Simone: And Kris has publicly expressed his doubts about challenging for the title so soon. I hope that he doesn't psyche himself out of this opportunity.
"DO YOU CROSS YOUR HEART WHEN YOU HOPE TO DIE?"
The lights dim down and cast the arena in a red glow, and for a moment -- only a moment -- the crowd quiets down just a smidge. The drum riff opening that carries into an aggressive rhythm of guitar chords breaks out as "Black Lungs" by Architects blares out over the P.A. System. This brings the crowd to their feet -- both in a positive and negative reaction, completely mixed.
The spotlight doesn't fall upon the stage, instead flowing across the crowd as the lyrics describe more than just a time in the world. Finn Whelan appears not from the curtain, but from one of the visitor entrances with a semi-cocky swagger written into his denim jeans. He stops at the top of the steps for a moment, a slight smirk on his face as he glances down at the people around him, blockaded off by the typical burly security guards. The crowd is not booing, but they're not exactly cheering either. He sets his eyes upon the ring below, and then makes his way down slowly, ignoring the people around him though a few of them clap him on the shoulders as he descends.
At the barrier, he slings himself over and slides immediately underneath the bottom rope and leaps to his feet in the center of the ring. He heads directly for the ropes in front of him, and hops up onto the bottom one, bouncing slightly as he looks back at the crowd, choosing a few choice words to share with them. e drops down from it, and pulls of his vest as he heads to his place against the turnbuckle, leaning into it and looking at his opponent, past his brow as his music fades out.
Adams: Finn Whelan has been one of those most dominant champions we've seen in SCW since J2H and Fenris!
Simone: He certainly has earned respect and all of his recent accolades. And if he gets past Kris Ryans tonight, he will have earned one more.
Both champion and challenger stand in their corners as it is time for the introductions.
Justin: Ladies and gentlemen! The following contest is the MAIN EVENT of Violent Conduct X!
The crowd cheers!
Justin: It is scheduled for the Best Two Out of Three Falls -- and it is for the World Heavyweight Championship!
The cheers only intensify!
Justin: Introducing first - the challenger! From Jet City! KRIS RYYYYAANNNNSSSS!!!!
Kris steps from out of his corner and fist pumps with a loud "WOOO!" much to the crowd's pleasure.
Justin: And his opponent! Residing in New York City! He is the reigning and defending World Heavyweight Champion!!! FINNNNN WHHHHELLLLAAANNNN!!!!
Finn just stands there, stoic and ice cold as he simply stares at his challenger. He draws in a deep breath as he peels the title belt from around his waist and holds it up with a single arm before handing it over to Drew. Drew shows the belt to kris who pats it on the center plate for luck, before he holds the title belt up high for one and all to see!
Simone: The biggest prize for this sport! The World Heavyweight title is up for grabs!
Adams: And one of these guys has to beat the other TWO TIMES to walk away with it!
Drew passes the championship belt out to the time keeper before he looks first to Finn, and then to Kris -- and he calls for the bell!
DING DING DING!
Kris and Finn come from out of their respective corners and slowly circle the perimeter of the ring, staring hard at one another and sizing the other up. The two men then pause briefly before locking up, collar and elbow. Champion and challenger struggle and strain for the upper hand, both men of similar size and weight. They extend their legs and brace their feet, attempting to overpower the other when slowly, Finn manages to - step by step - back Kris up against the ropes. Drew calls for the clean break and when Finn does not budge, the official begins to count...
ONE...
TWO...
THREE...
Finn does indeed break, arms held up, and he nods as he allows his challenger to step off of the ropes with distance between them.
Simone: Say what you will about Finn Whelan's aggressive personality toward his opponents, but the man does show respect when it is warranted.
Adams: Yeah but how long is that going to last for either man?
The two men step closer once again and lock up again, and this time Kris quickly takes control of the situation, grabbing Finn into an extended arm bar with his wrist bent further back. Kris uses his leverage to press Finn down to a single knee, but the champion does not remain in this position for long as he pushes himself back to his feet. Kris twists Finn's arm into an overhead wrist lock, then uses his leg to kick the back of the champion's knee, taking him down to the mat.
Simone: Kris Ryans showing his experience and some excellent technical wrestling expertise.
But Finn is just as gifted technically and he turns into the hold and reverses their fortunes, now with the upper hand and pinning Kris face-down onto the canvas in a hammerlock. Kris pounds the mat with his free hand, a mix of frustration coupled with pain. Kris uses his free arm to reach toward the ropes but Finn jams his arm even further up his back, causing Kris to yell out and strike the canvas again. Finn then stands up, pulling Kris up along with him but maintaining the hammerlock from behind.
Adams: Both of these guys are the same height and only twenty pounds weight difference between them.
Simone: They also both have similar experience inside of the ring with Kris maybe with a few years edge. This is going to be a tough one to maintain any form of advantage.
Kris is able to reach with his free arm behind him and ensnare Finn into a side headlock, breaking the hammerlock and giving his arm a chance to heal. Kris hip tosses the champion over, maintaining the side headlock on the mat - that is until Finn uses his long legs to break the hold, grabbing his challenger into a head scissors. Kris kicks his legs, attempting a kick out to break the hold but Finn maintains the hold tightly, Drew checking for a choke but there is none. Kris then rolls over and manages to get to his hands and knees while in the hold. The challenger then somersaults forward, breaking the hold and right back into the side headlock on the mat.
Adams: For the Main Event of a show revolving around a hardcore theme, this has been amazingly subdued so far.
Simone: Give it time until tempers start to flare.
Finn slowly but surely finds his way back top a standing position in the hold and he uses the ropes to fire Kris off, thus breaking the hold. The two men come off the ropes and collide in a shoulder block but neither moves. Kris then darts into the ropes for a second attempt when Finn catches him with a drop toe hold, taking him to the mat face-first. Finn floats over his challenger, grabbing him into a front face lock and holding him face down on the canvas. Kris slowly pushes his way to his knees, still in the hold and the champion face and chest down on the mat...
Adams: Kris, full on cowgirl!
Simone: Jason!
Kris extends his leg and his boot drapes over the bottom rope and Drew calls for the break, which Finn obliges albeit with reluctance. Both champion and challenger return to their feet and they begin to circle when Finn holds a hand up...
Adams: Is he asking for a test of strength?
Simone: Neither man is really known for being power wrestlers so if so, this should be interesting.
Finn beckons Kris on, and finally the veteran challenger gives in, linking the fingers of their hands. They slowly reach up with their other hands and join fingers there as well. Immediately the test of strength commences, both men struggling. This time it seems to be Kris who takes control slowly, forcing Finn back with his back arched and his head almost touching the canvas....
Simone: Kris Ryans with the upper hand here...
But Finn then begins to power his own way out, rising in the test of strength until both men are vertically bases when Kris kicks his legs out from under him and drops onto his waistline for a forced pin, pushing Finn's shoulders to the canvas...
ONE!
Finn pushes his shoulder up and sllllowlly Kris forces it back down...
ONE!
Finn arches his back, taking his shoulders off of the mat. Kris tries to force them back down but to no avail. Kris then rolls through and drags Finn to his feet but the champion fights him off with a back handed chop to the sternum! The stinging crack sounds like a gunshot going off!
Crowd: WOOOO!!!
Simone: I was wondering if that was going to happen.
But Kris turns and answers back with a forearm shot to the side of the head that sends Finn into a tailspin on his feet!
Adams: And it LOOKS like we are done with the catch as catch can!
Kris immediately follows up with a spinning wheel kick that doubles Finn over, and a European uppercut that sends the champion staggering back against the ropes. Kris drives him face-first into the corner and then another backhand chop. Kris goes for an Irish whip into the far corner but Finn reverses it! Kris jumps onto the middle turnbuckle and goes to leap back for a flying cross body but Finn counters with a Lung blower in midair!
Simone: Oh the tide has definitely turned in this one!
Finn is on one knee, whispering to Kris and taunting his challenger. Finn then grabs Kris by the wrist and drags him to his feet, only to deliver a short-arm clothesline that knocks him right back down. Finn rolls through and pulls him right back to his feet. Finn goes for a second short-arm clothesline when kris suddenly ducks into the hold and scoops Whelan up for a body slam but instead turns it into a Cradle Shock!
Adams: Miracle's End!
Kris hooks Finn's legs which are kicking wildly!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
Adams: Wha-what happened!?
Simone: Kris Ryans just scored the first fall! That is what happened!
Justin: The winner of the first fall -- Kris Ryans!
The crowd cheers!
Simone: Kris Ryans is the first man in almost a year to pin Finn Whelan's shoulders to the mat!
The shock is evident enough on Finn's face as he rolls over on the mat, propped on one elbow. He stares up at Kris and just shakes his head.
Adams: I think Finn is having trouble believing he lost the first fall.
Simone: Understandable! Now his title is in real jeopardy as he has to win two straight falls now to retain!
Both champion and challenger are now on their feet and they walk right up to one another and get chest to chest and nose to nose, harsh words being exchanged! Finn throws a heavy forearm into Kris's head but Kris answers back in kind with a forearm of his own! Finn changes tactics and he delivers a hard head butt, right between Kris's eyes, sending the challenger staggering! Finn sweeps Kris's legs out from under him and steps through, going for the Figure Four when Kris reaches up and drags him over into an inside cradle!
ONE!
TWO!
Finn kicks out!
Finn rolls over to his hands and knees to escape but Kris jumps over him with an Oklahoma roll!
ONE!
TWO!
Finn kicks out again!
Simone: One more fall! That's all Kris Ryans needs to win the World Championship for the third straight time!
Adams: And Finn knows it too!
Finn rolls out onto the apron and uses the ropes to begin to pull himself up to his feet, when Kris sails over the top rope with a sunset flip, attempting to tear Finn off of the ring apron for a sunset power bomb onto the floor but Finn grabs hold of the ropes and holds on! Kris tugs and he pulls but Finn puts on the brakes! Finn then tries to kick Kris but the challenger lets go! Finn tries for a sweeping kick but Kris ducks and turns around - only to have Finn leap from the apron and deliver a missile dropkick to the floor!
Adams: The gloves, they are off!
Finn straddles Kris's waistline and he unloads on kris's skull with a number of mounted punches! Drew is counting...
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
Finn drags Kris up to his feet and Irish whips him hard into the ringside barricade, then wheels around and sends him crashing into the ring steps, Ryans striking them so hard they topple over!
Simone: This is one area where Finn Whelan might indeed have an edge over Kris Ryans - that natural aggressive nature!
FOUR!
FIVE!
SIX!
Finn then drags Kris to his feet and rolls him back inside of the ring before sliding back in himself, beneath the bottom rope!
Adams: Got to hand it to Finn! He could have tried for an easy count out but he wants to get the pin fall over the Hall of Famer!
Finn readies himself as Kris slowly gets to his hands and knees... Finn comes running up and jumps, planting a boot on the back of Ryans' head and delivering a curb stomp!
Simone: Seattle Terror!
Finn with the cover and he hooks the leg!
ONE!
TWO!
TH-Kris kicks out!
The fans cheer!
Simone: No, not quite yet!
Adams: I thought it was all over, myself!
Finn steps back as Kris gets up on wobbly legs! Finn then jumps to deliver a standing Enzugari but Kris ducks and Finn crashes face and chest first onto the canvas! No sooner does Finn fight his way to his feet than does Kris grab him into a front face lock and he kicks off the ropes to deliver a springboard Tornado DDT! Finn's head is planted into the mat!
Adams: He got him! New champion!
Kris with the cover!
ONE!
TWO!
TH-Finn kicks out!
Simone: No!

Adams: Fenian Rising!
Finn hooks Kris's legs tightly!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
The crowd cheers with a few boos thrown in for good measure!
Justin: The winner of the second fall, evening this at one fall apiece! Finn Whelan!
Adams: Whelp! It's all evened up!
Simone: We are just one fall away from declaring a winner! Whoever scores the next fall will walk out of London as the World Heavyweight Champion!
Kris rolls over and slowly sits up, trying to shake the cobwebs but this puts him in prime position for Finn to come careening off of the ropes and he slides right into him with a Shining wizard knee strike right to the head! Finn with the immediate cover!
ONE!
TWO!
Kris kicks out!
Finn throws him back down and covers him again!
ONE!
TWO!
Kris kicks out a second time, resulting in Finn sitting up and slapping his legs.
Adams: Careful champ! Don't get frustrated!
Simone: That has been the catalyst for many a champion losing their championship gold!
Finn stands up and as Kris slowly sits up, Finn strikes hard with a kick to his sternum! The thus of leather against flesh is resounding! Finn kicks him again, and a second time as Kris starts to rise! Kris snarls and yells at him to do it again!
Simone: Kris Ryans is a sadist, a glutton for punishment!
Adams: Well look at who he's married to!
Kris gets to one knee and Finn attempts another kick but this time it's blocked! Kris grabs him around the bended knee and upper body and throws him over with an Exploder suplex!
Adams: Where is this coming from!?
Finn rolls over and pushes himself to his feet when kris suddenly dives onto him with a flying Triangle choke, locking the submission in!
Simone: Sleepy Time! If Finn submits or even passes out, Kris is the champion!
Kris hangs off of Finn as the champion slowly sinks down to one knee! Drew is right there, checking on Finn but the champion refuses to concede and he holds on! Finn tries to rise to his feet but the hold is tightened and Finn now drops to both knees!
Adams: He's fading! Finn Whelan is fading fast!
Drew raises Finn's arm -- and it falls once! The referee raises it a second time and it falls again!
Simone: One more time and it's over!
Drew picks up Finn's hand one more time but before it can fall, Finn grabs a handful of the official's shirt!
Adams: Oh that was SMART!
Finn begins to fight through it once again, and he releases the referee's shirt and slowly fights to a standing potion! Finn then readies himself while still in the hold and he slowly picks Kris up....!
Simone: Some strength on the part of the champion!
And Finn runs forward, plowing Kris right into the corner and breaking the hold! Kris is stunned and Finn falls back on his feet! Finn then turns back around and rushes in but kris spins around and wipes him out with a spinning heel kick! Kris then steps out onto the apron and he begins to climb!

Justin: The winner of the third fall - and match - and STILL World Heavyweight Champion! FINNNNN!!! WHHHEEEELLLLAANNNN!!!!!!
kris rolls out of the ring and stands there, dejected and arguing with Drew Patton but the decision stands!
Adams: Well like it or not, Finn Whelan remains the World Heavyweight Champion!
Simone: But what a match! And with an outcome like that, there very well could be a rematch in the future for Kris Ryans!
Adams: And look who's here!
Tonight's host for Violent Conduct X, Miles McKinney-Kasey, steps inside of the ring with the championship belt in his arms. he walks to Finn with a proud smile on his face and hands the title belt over to the champion! The two Wolfslair members embrace fiercely and once they separate, Miles raises Finn's arm to cheers!
Simone: What a night! And what a Main Event!
Adams: The Royal Pain tour was really something to remember!
Simone: And you know what's coming up next! High Stakes XIII! The Grand Prix of Professional Wrestling!
Finn steps away from Miles and raises both arms in the air, celebrating as Miles applauds from behind!
Simone: On behalf of Jason Adams, I am Belinda Simone! So long everyb-
Suddenly Miles strikes Finn from behind with the Hidden Blade, sending Finn face down onto the mat and the World title belt sliding across the canvas!
Simone: What the hell!?
Adams: Miles just attacked his own teammate!
The crowd is in a hushed silence, everyone in stunned shock as Miles stands over Finn and shakes his head. Miles kneels down beside his teammate, shrugging his shoulders.
Miles: You wanted me to step up, Finn. Well now I am!
Miles stands up and the crowd cheers as he steps away from Finn and exits the ring, dropping to the ringside floor. Finn rolls to his side and stares at Miles who backs up the aisle. The credits roll and the scene fades out, the last scene being the two Wolfslair members in a stare down.
