The crowd is alive with energy inside of the Marriot Grand Ballroom in Lawrenceville, Georgia. The camera scans around the capacity crowd, cheering and waving while holding up signs for their favorites.
A spotlight begins to shine and the crowd cheers as ring announcer Justin Decent steps out onto the stage. The handsome exhibitionist jogs out to the ring, slapping hands to the fans who reach out to him.
He is handed the microphone by Jason Adams as he runs up the ring steps and climbs inside of the six-sided SCW ring and walks around, pumping his fist in the air to the tune of the crowd's chants;
"SCW!"
Justin then hops up onto the corner turnbuckle and smiles, looking out around at all of the fans filling the seats around the arena. He drops back down and takes his place in the center of the ring and brings the microphone up to his lips.
"SCW!"
"SCW!"
Justin: Hello everyone and welcome to the Marriot Grand Ballroom in Lawrenceville, Georgia and welcome to Sin City Wrestling "Climax Control"!
The crowd cheers!
Justin: Now please help me welcome the Hostess With the Mostess for "Climax Control" -- Miss Amanda Hugginkiss!
The crowd cheers as Amanda struts out in a black lace halter top, mini skirt bottom and high heels with heavy makeup and a bee hive wig ala Marge Simpson. Amanda has her microphone up and the song begins.
Amanda: I didn't realize how dead this club would be
I live for truth and beauty but there's room for change
You claim you stole my heart
I swear that I have
Is beauty just skin deep?
And now I finally
F-U-fugly-G-L-fugly-Y
I don't make frequent trips out here to BFE
But you found my weakness:
Drinks for free
I hope nobody sees you leave this place with me
It's shameless but it's true
You're homely but I'll sleep with you
I'm faithful to myself but I could use some strange
And strange is precisely
The term for you
You'll be a two at ten but you're a ten at two
Congratulations, dude
You're homely but I'll sleep with you
There's a crime but it isn't theft
I guess tonight you're Mr. Right
'Cause everyone else has Left
Never been a sellout for an easy score
Unless you count last weekend or the week before
I don't want beer goggles
Those still see
Instead I need a full tequilabotomy
And you should get one too
You're homely but I'll sleep with you
Well, your skin destroys that myth
How much Patron makes me think you're hot?
I'll have to plead the fifth
Understand why hookups all occur at night
It's easier to find a place devoid of light
Don't take it personal
When I ask
Would you please put on this Freddy Krueger mask?
It helps improve my view
You're homely but I'll sleep with you
F-U-fugly-G-fugly oh my
F-U-fugly-G-L-fugly-Y
F-U-fugly-G-fugly oh my
The song comes to an end and Amanda 'curtsies' and blows kisses to the cheering crowd before she heads backstage and vanishes behind the curtains.
Simone: Hello everyone and welcome to Lawrenceville, Georgia for Sin City Wrestling Climax Control! I am Belinda Simone!
Adams: YeeHAW! And I am a genuine, authentic George Cowpoke, Jason Adams!
Simone: A Georgia cowboy from London, England?
Adams: It could happen!
Simone: Riiight! But as the "Going Home" 2020 Tour continues, things pick up as we also build towards the first Supercard of 2020, My Bloody Valentine III. In tonight's opening contest, Marc Cross kicks things of going up against a young man who has not shown us much yet...
Adams: And by much she means 'anything'!
Simone: I was trying to be tactful, Jason. It is Mark Cross versus Link Rexx!
Adams: Then we have a mixed tag team match between two new teams in the division! "Bulldog" Bill teams with the Missus Bea for the first time in SCW, taking on the Trenton Tigers!
Simone: Which I am certain will have ramifications on who will be receiving a future shot at London Underground's mixed tag team titles. Two of the top, young Bombshells are in singles competition next, when Jessie Salco goes up against Andrea Hernandez!
Adams: Fenris is on a collision course with Ben Jordan and the World Championship, but first he has to go up against the man who was the first, and to date, ONLY man ever to make "the White Wolf" bled like a stuck pig -- Jake Raab!
Simone: A rare tag team match pits not just four of the top Bombshells in action against one another, but two teams of wives as the World Champion Roxi Johnson teams up with her wife Keira Fisher-Johnson to take on Christina Rose and her wife, Seleana Zdunich!
Adams: The Roulette Championship is on the line next, as Griffin Hawkins defends his crown against Alex Jones!
Simone: And in the Main Event! Indeed we have a brand new World Champion in Ben Jordan, but the now former champion, Senor Vinnie, has wasted no time at all in cashing in his return match clause! It is Ben Jordan defending the SCW World Heavyweight Championship for the first time against Senor Vinnie! All this and more on SCW Climax Control!
We are taken backstage to the Marriot Grand. Wrestlers, ring techs, producers and the like can be seen milling about. Out of the corner of the shot appears Clive. With greying hair, and 80s moustache and a round build, he is one of the most experienced heads on the road crew.
Behind him, dressed in full uniform are the Lawrenceville High School band.
Clive: Did anyone order a marching band?
The Dragon: Ooh good they made it. CLIVE, RIGHT HERE!
The already out-of-breath roadie runs over in the direction of the raised hand, looking a little red in the face.
Clive: Why do you have a marching band?
The Dragon: Underground champion victory tour. I figure if we're hitting all these different hometowns it's the perfect way to parade the belt around to Sin City's fanbase.
Clive: You're bringing a full band...to celebrate your title on another brand...on a hometown tour...
Ring Tech: Yeah, that's messed up man.
Clive: Plus there's all the red tape, I've gotta check the insurance before they go ringside with you...
The Dragon: Oh don't worry, already checked, insurance doesn't cover them. They're just gonna follow me around backstage.
Clive: They...what?
Ring Tech: ...
The Dragon: Now if you'll excuse me, I have a match to get ready for.
Mark brushes past the pair of them, hitching the Underground title up onto his shoulder as he takes his place at the front of the band. He counts the band in with a finger in the air, and they burst into song, following on a slow walk through the corridor.
The Dragon: The champ is here! Your new Sin City Underground champion is in the building! Make way for the champ!
Simone: It's almost time for tonight's opening match and it promises to be a good one as Mark Cross takes on Link Rexx in singles competition.
Adams: Mark came up short in his quest to defeat Griffin Hawkins and win the Roulette Championship last month and looks to use this match to get back into title contention, Link debuted last week in a losing effort to Maddox Ayers and both men want to bounce back from those losses.
Simone: Enough talk, let's take it to Justin.
Justin: The following contest is your opening match of the evening scheduled for one fall!
The crowd cheers in response before Justin puts the mic back to his lips.
Justin: Introducing first, from Canterbury, England, standing at 6'1" and weighing in at 225lb, he is... Mark "The Dragon" Crrrrrrrrrosssssss!!!
The arena lights dim as the bassline to "Never Again" begins to rumble around the arena. As the guitar riff hits, so does the lights, revealing Mark "The Dragon" Cross standing, one fist aloft, at the top of the aisle. Receiving recognition from the crowd, he strides purposefully to ringside, taking a moment to survey the scene as he reaches the apron.
Justin: And his opponent!
The lights in the arena go out as a blue spotlight shines on the stage. The beat to "Tokyo Ghoul" by Highly Suspect blares as the lyrics kick in.
Justin: From Kansas City, Missouri, weighing in at 235ibs, Link Rexx!
As the music picks up, we see Link Rexx in a prayer position as the fans boo. He stands up smirking as he walks down the ramp taunting the fans. He slides in the ring as the lights come back up.
Simone: Both Link and Mark look ready for action tonight!
Adams: And so, do the fans!
Drew goes over the rules with both Rexx and Cross before calling for the bell.
DING DING DING!
Simone: And tonight's opener is underway.
Adams: This should be a good match!
As soon as the bell rings Mark and Rexx lock up in the middle of the ring before Rexx takes the advantage with a hammerlock but it's short lived as Mark elbows him in the face twice before whipping Rexx off the ropes, Mark goes for a clothesline on the rebound but Rexx ducks under the attempt and nails Mark with a Spear in return! Mark goes down hard and Rexx wastes little time in going for the first pin of the match.
ONE!
TWO!
And Mark kicks out.
Simone: Rexx will learn quickly that you won't beat a wrestler of Mark's caliber that easily!
Adams: Just ask Griffin Hawkins!
Rexx gives Drew an annoyed look but doesn't argue with the ref, instead he drags Mark to the nearest corner where he ascends to the top rope and goes for a Moonsault, unfortunately for Rexx he gets an A for effort and an F for execution as Mark rolls out of the way at the last second causing Rexx to hit nothing but canvas, Rexx doesn't get much of a reprieve either as Mark picks him up and hits the youngster with a Belly to Belly Suplex.
Simone: And just like that, the balls in Mark's court!
Adams: And Rexx is about to get a painful lesson.
Mark doesn't go for a cover right away however instead he picks Rexx back up and hits a Snap Suplex for good measure before floating over into a pin attempt.
ONE!
TWO!
And Rexx gets the shoulder up! Mark picks up Rexx but Rexx rakes Mark's eyes to put a stop to his momentum and swing things around is his favor, this happens right in front of Drew who gives Rexx a stern talking too as Mark backs to the ropes but Rexx ignores the ref before hitting Mark with a Snap Suplex of his own, unlike Mark he doesn't float over into a cover however as Rexx instead ;locks Mark in a Sharpshooter!
Simone: That's a painful submission hold Rexx has locked in there!
Adams: It'll take more than that to put down Mark, but it will wear him down!
Drew gets into position and asks Mark if he wants to submit but the brit refuses to give up before he starts making his way towards the ring ropes and despite Rexx's best efforts to put a stop to this Mark reaches the bottom rope after a few minutes and forces the rookie to break the hold, Rexx doesn't let up however instead dragging Mark back to the middle of the ring and going for a Figure Four Leglock only to get kicked away by Mark sending him chest first into a nearby turnbuckle! Link stumbles backwards into a German Suplex that Mark bridges for the pin.
ONE!
TWO!
Simone: Was that three? No, Rexx kicks out!
Adams: Say what you will about Rexx, but he is giving Mark a hell of a fight!
It soon becomes obvious that the match has taken it's toll on both men as neither Rexx nor Mark are moving following the German Suplex and Drew starts applying the ten count, at the count of seven both men start to stir and at the count of nine they are both back on their feet with Mark being the first to make a move as he goes for a Clothesline only for Rexx to duck under the clothesline and hit Mark with a Superkick to the jaw! Rexx goes for the cover.
ONE!
TWO!
And Mark kicks out! Rexx becomes angry at this point as he gets in Drew's face arguing that that should've been a three count, but Drew isn't budging.
Simone: You'd think wrestlers would know better than to argue with an SCW referee by now! Even if Rexx is a rookie, SCW has been around for years!
Adams: To be fair, there are veterans that make that mistake as well and Mark looks set to make Rexx pay for this mistake!
Before Rexx's argument can continue any further he is spun around by Mark who finally manages to hit the youngster with a clothesline after multiple attempts at the move, Rexx quickly gets back to his feel but doesn't stay up for long as he is sent flying with a Release German Suplex! Rexx quickly rolls out of the ring rather than risk Mark's momentum continuing but this backfires as well as Mark follows Rexx outside the ring.
Simone: Rexx should be glad he's not facing one of SCW's resident highflyers as he would've been hit with a Suicide Dive by now!
Adams: Not sure if facing a power wrestler like Mark is any less painful for him to be honest Belinda!
Mark quickly catches up with Rexx and hits him with some right hands before rolling him back into the ring, Mark follows him in just as Drew catches Rexx fishing some brass knuckles out of his jeans pockets and confiscates them before Rexx can use them on Mark, however Rexx instead uses the distraction to kick the ring ropes as Mark is stepping through them causing Mark to clutch his balls in pain at which point Rexx calls for his finisher.
Simone: Underhanded tactics aside, Rexx is going for the T-Rexx!
Adams: If he hits this, Rexx will win his first SCW match!
Rexx goes for the Suplex but it gets blocked by Mark who instead hits him with the Ketteiteki Desaki!
Simone: That move he does! Rexx is out!
Adams: Stick a fork in Link Rexx, he's done!
Mark goes for the cover.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
DING DING DING!
Justin: Here is your winner, "The Dragon" Mark Cross!
Simone: Mark is back to his winning ways after coming up short against Griffin!
Adams: And he might be back in contention before we know it!
Mark celebrates his win whilst Drew checks on Rexx.
Mikah walks through the hallways of the Marriott Grand Ballroom venue in Lawrenceville, Georgia with her six month old son, Myles Green in her arms. She stops for a moment when she hears a familiar voice off to her right.
Mikah: Oh baby Myles, you're in for a treat.
She kisses the baby's head before walking into the room to see Despy's back to her as he guards the roulette wheel. She smiles and adjusts Myles in her arms before walking up behind Despy and covering his eyes with one hand as she supports Myles with the other.
Mikah: Guess who!
She glances at Myles, who was busy chewing on his fingers before waiting patiently as she keeps Despy's eyes covered. Despayre reacts in typical "Despy fashion,' shrieking in startlement and he jumps, spinning around in circles and finally ends in a Kung Fu crane kick pose -- right before all that spinning around catches up to him and Mikah watches as he tilts backward and slowly falls over.
Despayre: Um, ow!
Over the edge of the table, a slightly disheveled Despayre's head, or at least the top half, rises over the edge with his "Blues Brothers" glasses askew.
Despayre: Mikah? ... Noooo! You can't be Mikah! Mikah would never be in Georgia!
Mikah chuckles before again adjusting the baby in her arms. She tilts her head to the side a little bit to try to see him upright before offering him a free hand to help him up.
Mikah: I am in Georgia. Well, for the night anyways.
She offers him a warm smile before she adjusts her simple 'Bring Back Simon Jones' t-shirt as Myles grabs a handful of her blonde locks and before he can put them in her mouth, she takes her hair away from him.
Mikah: I thought Drake and I would come support Ben in his match tonight since we haven't been around lately.
She gives a sheepish look before looking at her baby.
Mikah: Having a baby changes everything! But I also decided that since I was going to be in attendance, that I'd come see you!
She grins at him. And indeed Despy grins back, absolutely thrilled to get to see "HIS" Mikah, as he hurries round the table to give her the biggest of teddy bear hugs, when he skids to a halt, his eyes firmly on the baby in her arms. He looks at Myles, then at Mikah with wide eyes.
Despayre: Gee! Drake shrank since last time I saw him!
Mikah covers her mouth to cover up a giggle.
Mikah: This isn't Drake, silly. This is Myles....Drake's son. And yes, I know. He looks NOTHING like me at all. Well, except maybe the hair.
She smiles at Despy before looking at Myles, who was alert and looking at Despy.
Mikah: He doesn't bite, you can still hug me. He's pretty friendly. A little wet at the moment but he's nice. Nicer than his Daddy.
Mikah winks at Despy.
Despy inches closer to Mikah, tippy toe by tippy toe, until he's close enough for that all-important hug. Well, except that he did so gingerly and not one of his preferable teddy bear hugs. Gotta be careful you know when little ones are afoot! Being besties with a diminutive teddy bear such as Angel has taught him a lesson or two about such things!
Despayre then takes a step back and clasps his hands behind his back and rocks back and forth on the balls of his fet with the brightest of smiles.
Despayre: So! Is it true?
Mikah raises an eyebrow at Despy.
Mikah: Is...what true?
She wasn't sure where that question could lead. She could only imagine the rumors that flew around backstage.
Mikah: I'm not sure what you've heard....
She gives him a slightly pu
led look. Despayre rolls his eyes, retaining that impish smile, as if Mikah is just being the silliest ever on purpose.Despayre: You know...! The REAL reason you're here! Is it true you are signing up for the Blast From the Past?
Mikah's eyes widen and she looks at Myles before looking at Despy. She opens her mouth to reply but then closes it as she tries to think of what to say.
Mikah: Um...
She looks at Despy and offers a smile.
Mikah: You know tag team wrestling isn't my thing, right?
The words came out slowly from her lips as if she didn't want to hurt his feelings, which she didn't.
Mikah: Because I'm not going to sign up for the Blast From the Past tournament....the one time I did that was disastrous and I don't want a repeat!
She offers a small smile again.
Mikah: But! I did come to see you!
She grins again at him.
Mikah: And so did baby Myles!
Despayre: Well! Angel says that tag team matches and mixed tag team matches are like, SO completely different. Mixed tag team matches are just a bunch of singles matches put together to make things easier on the match writers.
He nods seriously. Mikah frowns but gives Despy a look before looking down at Myles.
Mikah: ....Match writers?
She tilts her head to the side as she looks at Despy.
Mikah: ...Is that one of Mark's new things?
A smirk tugs on the corner of her lips, the old Mikah showing through just a little bit. The pre-mommy Mikah. Despayre sighs.
Despayre: I need a cookie. I think it's time for my cookie break!
He then looks at Myles first, and then at Mikah.
Despayre: Do you want a cookie? Can Myles have a cookie?
Mikah glances down at Myles before looking at Despy.
Mikah: I would love a cookie and I might share it with Myles but it's a lot of sugar for a baby in one cookie. But a bite or two won't hurt him!
Mikah smiles at Despy again.
Mikah: As long as they are chocolate chip cookies, that is.
Despayre: Well I... oh!
Despayre glances 'down,' drawing Mikah's eyes down along with him. There on the table is Angel nin a little French chef uniform, with a tray of chocolate chip cookies on a silver platter in front of him and two tall glasses of cold milk. Despayre looks up at her with a bright smile and wide eyes.
Despayre: Well! Isn't that a happy coincidink?
Mikah scrunches her nose and nods her head.
Mikah: The best kind!
She grabs a cookie and takes a bite before giving Myles a teeny tiny bite.
The giant Tron screen comes to life and we see Bill and Bea Barnhart on the screen somewhere backstage. Both are dressed in their traditional wrestling attire and they are ready for their Tag Team match.
Bill: I am ready for this match. Bea is ready for this match. Iris is ready for a snack.
Bea: We plan on making quick work in defeating Trenton Tigers tonight. We may defeat them so quickly that we may create a sonic boom because of how quickly we do it.
Bill: Unlike other tag teams we are family. We are husband and wife. We work exceptionally well as a team. You will truly be amazed and astonished at our performance against Trenton Tigers.
Bea: Tonight you will see something rarely seen with a husband and wife tag team. Pay particular attention to me as I am the future of the Bombshell Division.
Bill: Ready to get in place for our entrance for our match?
Bea: Hell yeah! We are going to make history tonight!
Bill and Bea turn and start to walk out of camera view and the giant Tron screen goes dark.
Justin:The following mixed tag match is scheduled for one fall...Introducing first...
"My Town" strikes up as orange and grey lights float around the arena. Brandon Sludge and Daniela V. Rodgers step through the curtains as the crowd is going crazy. They walk down the ramp discussing strategies while high-fiving the audience members. Daniela slides into the ring as Brandon steps through the ropes. They pose for the crowd before stepping into the corner.
Justin: From Trenton Florida, Brandon Sludge and Daniela V. Rodgers...The Trenton Tigers.
Adams: Daniela Rodgers and Brandon Sludge, a new tag team in SCW and I have to wonder if they are ready for this match tonight.
Simone: They had better be because here comes their opponents.
Raise Your Glass by Pink hits the speakers and we see Bill Barnhart walk out from the backstage area holding a pink glass chalice in his hand. He is followed by his wife and Manager, Bea Barnhart, who is leading their English Bulldog Iris by a pink leash attached to her pink diamond-studded collar. When the song comes to the lyrics RAISE YOUR GLASS Bill Barnhart raises the chalice into the air. The crowd gives a mixed reaction to Barnhart. The three make their way to the ring where Bill hands the chalice to Bea so she can keep watch on it until the match is over. Bill enters the ring then walks around the ring playing the crowd before settling into a corner.
Adams: Bea and Bill Barnhart are facing Sludge and Rodgers tonight and I am pretty sure that they are going to be one step ahead of their opponents.
Justin: Their opponents from Lawrenceville Georgia, The Barnharts.
Simone: Bill and his wife are ready and this match is about to kick off.
Adams: I can't wait to see what is going to be going on and now we don't have to because there is the bell.
DING DING DING!
Bill slides out of the ring as Bea turns towards the center of the ring and moves towards Jacob Summers slowly. Daniela smiles as she urges Brandon to leave the ring and then she heads to the middle of the ring where Rodgers holds out her hand for a friendly shake. Bea looks down at the outstretched hand then up at Daniela who offers a friendly smile. Shaking her head, Daniela reaches back and smacks Bea's hand with a right hand that rocks Mrs. Barnhart staggering towards the ropes. Daniela brings a hand up to her cheek in surprise as Bea plays to the booing crowd. Turning back to Rodgers, Bea moves to challenge her and both lock up in a collar and elbow tie up that Bea uses leverage to push Daniela into the corner. Screaming at Jacob, Bea motions for him to pull Rodgers off. Bea backs slowly away and offers a clean break but Bea uses the time to charge into the corner with a clothesline that takes Daniela off her feet. Bill is yelling encouragement at Bea who taunts Rodgers to get to her feet. Daniela is slow as she pulls herself up and then charges out of the corner to hit Bea with a dropkick. Bea is launched towards her corner where she is tagged by Bill who slides between the ropes. Daniela is on one knee as she sees the tag then rolls quickly to her own corner where she tags in Brandon Sludge.
Adams: Well the start of this match is pretty much how I expected it to be. But now we are going to see how their significant others will fight.
Sludge slides into the ring after tagging the hand of Daniela. The two men move into the middle of the ring where they begin to circle in the middle of the ring. Finally, they lock up but neither move much as they each try to get the leverage to gain the upper hand. Brandon manages to turn Bill into a headlock that he uses to grind down on Barnhart who is struggling to push Sludge into the ropes. Barnhart recoils off the opposite ropes and the two slam into each other with a hard clothesline that takes both down to the mat. Rolling quickly, they get to their feet. Sludge is surprised as Bill comes from behind and takes down Brandon with a bulldog. Rolling over, Barnhart pins the shoulders of Brandon to the mat. Summers manages a one count before Sludge presses Bill off. Barnhart thumps his hands into the canvas in frustration as Brandon rolls to his hands and knees. Bill gets to his feet and then rushes the ropes and rebounds with an attempt at another bulldog but Sludge plants his feet and pulls Barnhart off his feet and drops him with a side slam to the mat. Bill arches in pain as Sludge rolls to his feet again and then reaches down to pull bill up into a delayed suplex. Walking a few steps, Sludge holds Barnhart up to allow the blood to rush to his head before dropping him on his back. Bill lays on the mat as Sludge rolls to his knees and begins to crawl to pin Barnhart who is able to roll to the side where he tags in Bea once more.
Simone: Both these men are evenly matched it seems and if that is the case, we may see that the first mistake will be the one to decide this match.
Daniela comes into the ring before Bea as Sludge moves towards the corner. Summers moves to stop her and points to the corner warning her that she needs to tag in first as Bea smirks and moves towards her. Daniela goes to slide out of the ring but is sent to the floor by a round kick to the head from Mrs. Barnhart. Summers pushes her back to the opposite side of the ring where she is conferring with Bill as Daniela pulls herself up onto the apron and is tagged in by a concerned Sludge who reaches in to retag himself in but Bea catches the hand of Daniela and whips her into the ropes and catching the rebounding Rodgers, uses an arm drag to take her down to the mat. Pulling Daniela up, Bea uses knee shots into the back of Rodgers who arches in pain. Catching the hair of Rodgers, Bea pulls her up and whips her into the ropes once more but Rodgers rebounds then stops when Bea drops her body to catch her for a back body drop. Daniela pulls Bea up and catching her around the midsection, she hits a belly to belly suplex on Bea who brings a hand to her back in pain as she rolls to her stomach to recover. Daniela rolls to her feet then hits a snapmare before bouncing off the ropes and hitting a basement dropkick that sends Bea into the corner of her husband who holds out his hand for a tag. Bea hits the hand then rolls out of the ring without Daniela seeing the tag. Rushing the ropes, Rodgers rebounds and then launches herself to the outside with a suicide dive to take Bea down as she was slowly rising to her feet.
Adams: Oh my god, Daniela has broken Bea Barnhart.
Simone: Bill is the legal man and good thing because I don't think either woman is ready to get back in that ring that quickly.
Brandon quickly gets into the ring as Bill and Jacob look at the two women on the floor. Turning Bill around, Brandon is able to use a clothesline that rocks Bill into the ropes then off into a running body attack from Sludge who had bounced off the opposite ropes. Bill clutches at his chest as Brandon staggers to the side as the move hurts both men. On the outside, Bea is working her way to her corner as Daniela uses the ring apron to pull herself to her feet. In the ring, Bill has managed to whip Sludge into the ropes and catches coming off them with a sleeper hold. Sludge swings his arms in the air trying to get some leverage to push backwards on Barnhart. Brandon is able to desperately push enough to drive Bill back first into the corner. The hold is broken enough for Sludge to catch his breath slightly but Barnhart again locks in the sleeper. Once more, Sludge is able to slam Bill back first into the turnbuckles which breaks the hold completely allowing Sludge to stagger across the ring where Daniela is bouncing on the ropes. Bill charges out of the corner where he slams a clothesline into the back of Brandon which pushes him towards the corner and into a tag from Daniela.
Simone: I think the just gave Brandon the escape he needed. Could this be the mistake that the Barnharts don't need?
Daniela gets into the ring and charging across, she pulls Bea into the ring by the hair and then whips her into the ropes across the ring. Bea bounces off the ropes as Daniela hits right behind her and then uses a hard running bulldog to bounce the head of Bea off the mat. Getting to her feet, Daniela rushes to the corner and then climbs to the top turnbuckle as Bea rises slowly. Launching herself with a missile dropkick, Rodgers drops Bea once more. Getting to her feet as Brandon roars his approval, Daniela picks up Mrs Barnhart and then hits a flash forward suplex on Bea. Bea is on the mat recovering as Daniela gets to her feet then points to the corner. Pulling Bea towards it, Rodgers climbs the turnbuckles and then hits a diving moonsault on the laid out Bea. Rolling over, Daniela catches the leg of Bea and rolls her up for the pin.
ONE!
Adams: Daniela Rodgers has Bea in a pin and I don't know if she is going to be able to kick out after that moonsault.
TWO!
Adams: Here comes Bill to the rescue but he is stopped by Brandon as Jacob continues to the count.
Simone: You mean finishes the count.
THREE!
Adams: We have a winner tonight in the Trenton Tigers.
DING DING DING!
Justin: The winners of the match, the Trenton Tigers!!!
Daniela gets to her feet and is hoisted into the air by Brandon who hugs her. Bill Barnhart moves to check on his wife and helps her out of the ring as Daniela and Brandon celebrate the win by climbing the turnbuckles as their music plays.
Adams: What a win for the Trenton Tigers Belinda, new tag team in the company and I am thinking they are making a strong statement for all the other tag teams.
Simone: I agree Jason, only a matter of time before these two get the attention of the tag champions if you ask me.
Daniela and Brandon jump down from the turnbuckles and slide out of the ring and heads to the curtain as the fans rush the aisle to receive slaps from the departing team.
The scene opens backstage at Climax Control where we see Jessie Salco walking down the hallway ahead of her match against Andrea Hernandez when she is stopped by Ms. Rocky Mountains.
Jessie: Here to talk about my match against Andrea?
Ms. Rocky Mountains: You got it, any thoughts on what she said on Twitter?
Jessie: Funny how she accuses me of crashing and burning in my match against Mercedes when she is the one who flew to close to the sun in the Six Pack Challenge, tonight will be a match of the high flyers but at the end of the night, I will have started the year off with a win!
Ms. Rocky Mountains: One last thing, last week you appeared on the stage during the main event, what was that about?
Jessie scoffs.
Jessie: All I'm going to say is that I expected better from Sam and time will tell if Candy's reign lasts past the first defense.
Jessie walks off without another word as the scene fades.
Climax Control cuts backstage where a focused and confident Andrea is sitting on a metal crate in the hallway, concentrating quite hard on the match that she has coming up a bit later. Sliding off the crate and beginning to make her way down the hall, she doesn't appear to be bothered by the events of last month's world title match that she fell short in. She walks by interviewer Holly Wood who she doesn't notice initially until she calls out to her.
Holly Wood: Andrea?
Andrea pauses to turn toward her.
Andrea: Hey.
Luckily for Holly, Andrea's not in a bad mood and doesn't appear to mind her presence as she approaches her.
Holly Wood: Mind answering a few questions?
Andrea: Sure. I could use the time. I don't put myself out there enough, so I suppose it wouldn't hurt.
Holly Wood: Great! You're going to be taking on Jessie Salco later but first, let's talk about December 2 Dismember. You weren't considered someone that was likely to qualify for that survival challenge match, much less win it and you didn't do too bad for yourself. Of course, by saying that I want to make it clear that I'm not trying to patronize you. What do you take out of that experience?
Andrea initially responds with a half-smirk and a bit of a small breath before she answers.
Andrea: Obviously disappointed that I didn't win. But at the same time, Roxi did earn it so I can't fault her for coming up big in that spot. Still, it doesn't take away the fact that I've hit the ground running in this division. I know in my heart I've got everything within me to get to that level and that's what I plan on doing. It's going to take some time, sure. It's going to take some more experience in a high level situation like that. Hell, it may even take me a few more tries. But, I know that I'm going to get there eventually. I can't be upset with how far I've come in this company in a short amount of time. It's a good lesson going forward, I'll say that much.
Holly Wood: You cut your teeth against some of the more successful, longer-tenured Bombshells of this company and tonight, you've got another one of those in Jessie Salco. You weren't too nice to her in the week leading up to this match.
Andrea: I wasn't. I'm not saying that Jessie Salco is a terrible wrestler or anything like that, far from it. But the facts are the facts. She's been around as long as Mercedes and Christina and Roxi and the like... but she's never been as successful as they've been. But, she wants to run her mouth. She REALLY has this obsession with the whole "crash and burn" mantra she's got coming into this thing. I get that she wants to make up for what wasn't a great year for her last year. I get that she's still got the drive to be a world champion. But, what December 2 Dismember taught me is that drive alone isn't enough. She wants to make that statement though... and she wants to do it at my expense. I'm not about to let that happen. I'll show the champions of this company that I'm for real, that I'm going to be a mainstay of the division going forward, that I'm going to take on every challenge no matter how big or small and I'm going to make myself better no matter the outcome. I'm not some one-shot flash in the pan. You know how Jessie tried to tell me to "shut the fuck up and take the loss"? Let's just say that for her own sake, I hope she takes her own advice after tonight because she sure as hell doesn't do that on a consistent basis, you know what I mean? After I'm done with her, I've got my sights on another mainstay of this division...
Holly Wood: Really now?
Andrea nods.
Andrea: Yeah. There's someone in this division that is real serious about having a match with me. I don't know what her motivations are but she wants me pretty damn bad in that ring in a one on one affair.
Holly Wood: Who are we talking about here?
Andrea: Well... to make a long rant short... let's just say that if Christina Rose is watching... she better look at this match long and hard and consider if this is something she really wants. I don't back down from a challenge, that's never been my M.O., but she better be careful... I know she's got a reputation for biting off more than she can chew sometimes. It's a match I'd be ready for in a heartbeat... but what about her? Right now though... I've got to silence Jessie Salco and keep her in her place...
Andrea walks off, retaining the confidence she's expressed up to this point, leaving the crowd cheering for her as the scene fades.
Justin: This match is scheduled for one fall introducing first... hailing from Sedona, Arizona... Andrea Hernandez...
"Ultranumb" by Blue Stahli hits the venue's soundwaves. Andrea appears on the stage to some strong cheers from the crowd. She she acknowledges the positive reaction that she's getting as she makes her way toward the ring, completely focused on the task at hand. She gets up to the ring apron and uses the top rope to slingshot herself into it, continuing to soak in the cheers she gets as she leans against the corner, confidently waiting for what comes next.
Justin: And her opponent...
The slow church bells of "Unsainted" by Slipknot are heard throughout the arena before the choir starts singing the words, when Corey Taylor joins in and the drumming picks up the the lights flashing across the arena.
Justin: Introducing, from Miami, Florida, "The Heavy Metal Angel" Jessie Salco!
As the song kicks into high gear with Corey's scream Jessie emerges from the back headbanging along to the song before finishing with the christ pose at the top of the ramp and making her way down to the ring, she slides into the ring and perches herself on the middle turnbuckle waiting for the match to begin.

Everything comes into focus and as it does we are treated to the sight of ringside. A few moments go by and that is when the spotlight hits the curtain as it does the loud sounds of "Forever" by Drake begins to blast across the speakers. The moment it does "The Lyrical One" Teddy emerges from the curtains clad and he is accompanied by his lovely wife Kate. Teddy smiles as he walks arm and arm with both of them. Once they reach ringside Kate walks up the stairs first. She takes a seat on the ropes allowing Todd to enter the ring. He can't help but chuckle as he stands in the middle of the ring. Diamond slowly take his robe off of him. He smiles as he takes in the boos of the crowd. He can't help but chuckle as he hugs his wife as he calls for a microphone.
Simone: Oh God it looks like Teddy Steele has something to say today.
Adams: And from the looks of it he isn't wearing any heels or make up.
Adams was right. Tonight Teddy seemed to be original. He wore his hair into long braids. He couldn't help but crack a wicked grin as he slowly raises the microphone to his lips to the loud sounds of boos.
Teddy: What a fucking dump. Out of all the places we could have gone SCW decides to go o the filthy South. This company decides to go to Georgia and for what purpose exactly?! This is an absolute dump just like all of you who wanted to attend a show like this.
The crowd begins to boo loudly as Diamond snatches the microphone and begins to speak.
Diamond: Everybody needs to show my husband some bloody respect. When he talks that means all of you should shut your bloody mouths and give him some respect!
Teddy: Thank you so much for standing up for me babe but let me be brutally honest. They all should be proud because I basically showed up tonight. That means they came to a great show because I am on it so they already got their fill for the price of admission. Now there are some things I need to get off of my chest. First and foremost fuck the entire Mixed tag team division. I was forced into a match I truly didn't want to be in. I have done everything this company has ever asked of me. I am your most hated person of last year. I became the villain you all not only needed but the one you needed. Yet where was my fucking respect?! Where was everything I deserve for the hard work I put into this company?!
Teddy shakes his head in disgust.
Teddy: The fact is I wasn't even considered. Christian can go fuck himself. I have busted my ass in this company and the least they could have done was put me in one of those World Championship contender matches. Give me a chance to prove my worth, a chance to showcase I should be in the main event and yet did they give me that?! No of course they didn't. I wasn't even considered but when it doesn't matter or as a way to kill my push then they wish to shove a Fenris in my direction or a Senor Vinnie... What the fuck gives?! That isn't how you pay the man who was an awesome Roulette Champion. I don't deserve that type of respect.
Diamond: Yet instead of giving my husband a chance to achieve we get shoved into a Mixed Tag Team match which we didn't want. I thought you would have understood from the first time where we said we didn't want to be in the division yet there we were. How does a woman who basically won a briefcase to shape her entire career who was in the middle of a huge main event and a man who was one of the biggest rising stars in the company resort to being in that position?!
Teddy: It's because this company wants to kill our push. They don't believe in us. Hell nobody really believed in me. Going back to the days of being in Honor Wrestling I was always considered a joke. One unfit to do anything?! In this company I wasn't going to amount to anything. I spent so much time in SCU and when I made it to this roster I started to take off. I became something, and it's a shame SCU fired my best friend T Will. Fuck that company! Fuck it all...
Teddy takes a long deep breath as he continues to speak.
Teddy: You know what?! All of you can shove it because I am on this program and if the company doesn't want to give me my push. I am going to just take it. I am going to make my own moment. Many people want their name out there to be in contention but that's a fucking giving. If you aren't busting your ass out here to reach the top what's the point?! That's like Caleb Storm being too chicken shit to be in the ring with Fenris. Who gives a shit if he beat that ass you get your ass in gear and you do the unthinkable. These past few months I have been quiet but it's because I have been trying my hand at Hollywood. I have tried to do the movie studio thing when I swiped Christina's studio from under her nose but her BITCH somehow took it back and found a way to give it back to Christina. I am so over it!
Teddy smirks as he continues to speak.
Teddy: However there is one man that I want to face. A Hall of Famer. A man who can draw heat and yet he spends his time on a Twitter account running his mouth about others. It also happens to be the husband of my wife's best friend. So J2H Mr. Hall of Famer, Mr. Hollywood are you too good to come back for a match? I want a piece of you. That is how my legacy will be cemented by challenging people like you. So the challenge is out there. No make up, no heels, no bullshit. Just me calling you out, or perhaps I should just continue to draw more heat in every way I can. Peace out Georgia it's been a dump and I definitely don't want to come back.
With that teddy makes out with his wife as he drops the microphone and he slowly walks out as we go elsewhere.
The camera moves backstage to once again see Mikah walking through the hallways with Myles in her arms. She was still wearing her skinny jeans, turquoise converse, and her turquoise 'Bring Back Simon Jones' t-shirt. She was just enjoying the exploring part that came with a new venue and not being booked in a match. She walks past a closed door and almost walks by when she stops and reads the name plate on the door. She smirks to herself before looking down at Myles as he looks up at her, a bit curious.
Mikah: Watch this, Myles.
Mikah pushes the door open and lets it smack the wall on the other side, a smirk playing on her face once more as she just walks into Hot Stuff Mark Ward's and Christian Underwood's office. She sits down in a chair directly in front of Hot Stuff Mark Ward's desk and adjusts Myles so he was sitting on her lap but still comfortably in her arms.
HS: I see you still haven't mastered the art of knocking.
Mikah flashes a smile in his direction.
Mikah: And I see you're still acting like you're working.
She flashes him a smirk as she looks down at Myles as he sits on her lap, looking around the office. She grabs a pen from Mark's desk and hands it to the baby to play with.
HS: Is there something you need? I thought you never left Chicago? Or that husband of yours?
Mikah smirks at him before kissing the top of Myles' head.
Mikah: Oh Drake's here. He's somewhere in the audience. We came to support Ben Jordan in his match tonight.
She flashes him a cocky smirk again as she leans back in the chair and carefully crosses one leg over the other and then lets Myles get situated again as he chews on the pen.
HS: Is there a reason you're in here? My office specifically?
Mikah smirks at him.
Mikah: You mean Christian's office?
She just looks down at Myles for a moment, who was practically Drake's mini me with slightly lighter hair.
Mikah: And when are you going to admit that you miss me around here?
HS: When you admit that you miss us.
Mikah rolls her eyes before grabbing a sharpie marker from his desk and handing it to Myles to play with.
Mikah: You know, all you have to do is admit that I'm your most favorite Bombshell ever and I'd come back. And save your little women's division. It's that simple, Marky Mark.
Mikah rubs the baby's back.
HS: More chance of me liking one of Drake's movies. Therefore, no chance.
Mikah rolls her eyes.
Mikah: You know that I'm your favorite. And just think, you're denying the fans of seeing their favorite Hall of Famer Bombshell in that ring.
She pouts her bottom lip out at him in a faux sadness look. She takes the marker and pen from Myles and puts them back in the pen cup on his desk.
Mikah: Think about it Marky Mark! You know what you have to do to get me back in that ring! But I'm going to go wander around a little more before Benny's match.
Mikah stands back up and adjusts Myles in her arms again before looking at Hot Stuff Mark Ward again. She grins at him.
Mikah: I'm so your favorite.
She turns and walks out of his office, purposely leaving the door wide open.
Justin: The following contest is for one fall, introducing first...
Feuer Frei by Rammstein plays over the sound system as Jake comes out through the curtain and he wears black MMA gloves with MMA German flag coloured shorts with his name on it with white arrows printed on his shorts.
Justin: "From Dusseldorf, Germany, he is The Fiery Target, Jake Raab!"
He high fives the fans as he gets into the ring and he does a hold up on the turnbuckle as he gets down from the turnbuckle and does a bow and arrow pose towards the camera before waiting for the match to start.
Justin: And his opponent...
"If I Had A Heart" by Fever Ray begins to play across the building and the crowd turns with anticipation towards the entrance as "the White Wolf" Fenris emerges from behind the curtains with his younger brother at his side. As Aron looks on, Fenris stands stoically, looking out towards the capacity crowd before dropping to one knee with head bowed. He symbolically crosses his heart and looks 'up' in homage before standing upright and beginning his journey toward the ring with his brother following close behind.
Justin: Making his way toward the ring! Accompanied by Aron Baltasarsson, from Iceland, weighing two hundred and four pounds -- Fenris!
Despite the fans that reach out toward him, Fenris does not reciprocate and his attention is solely on the ring, whereas the smiling Aron good naturedly slaps a hand or two that extends toward him. Fenris climbs the ring steps and walks along the apron, turning towards the fans and extends his arms up and begins the 'Viking Clap.' Slowly but surely, despite any potential misgivings towards the young man, many fans join along with him in the Viking Clap. Aron holds the ropes for his brother, and Fenris steps through and continues the clap from one corner to the next, drawing in the energy of the crowd. Joined by Aron, Fenris returns to his own corner and paces like a wolf stalking his prey, kicking off his slippers to compete barefoot as the claps slowly subside.
Simone: And we're ready to go.
Before the bell can ring...
The opening guitar riff to "Blame it on the Boom Boom" by Black Stone Cherry starts to play. The riff repeats itself once more. A British flag appears on the screen, waving with a gray filter and the lyrics kick in.
Adams: Looks like we're gonna be joined by the SCW World Heavyweight Champion.
Simone: I get the feeling we're gonna be joined by a lot of people tonight.
The familiar face of Ben Jordan appears on the screen. The fans instantly burst in to cheers as a smiling Ben Jordan appears at the top of the ramp, dressed in a silver suit with black shirt, the SCW World Championship over his shoulder. Ben looks around the crowd, his trademark smile on his face. He turns his head to the left, winking at the crowd before slowly walking down the ramp. He moves to the left, running his hand along the fans, high fiving as many as possible, before moving to the right and doing the same. Ben stops in front of a fan with a phone and moves next to them, allowing them to take a selfie with the smiling Englishman
Adams: Hopefully he's heading here.
He stands outside the ring, looking up at Fenris and Jake Raab before moving towards the commentary table
Simone: I think you're right.
The two look towards Ben for a couple of seconds but Jasmine calls for the bell.
DING DING DING!
Both Jake and Fenris circle around each other before locking up, both men in a struggle for the upper hand.
Adams: So what brings you out here Ben?
Ben: Well it was announced that I will be facing Fenris with or without the championship, so thought it'll be an idea to have a butchers at him a little closer.
Fenris tries to push Jake backwards but Jake stands his ground and forces himself around behind Fenris, wrapping his arms around the former World champion. Jake tries to lift Fenris, but Fenris shifts his weight and keeps himself grounded, before throwing two elbows backwards at Jake, the second one catching him on the side of the head. Jake releases the hold and Fenris jumps back with a mule kick catching Jake in the gut and knocking him away. Fenris quickly bounces off the rope and comes flying back at Jake with a running high knee, knocking Jake against the ropes, but Jake hits the ropes and charges forward at Fenris with a flying clothesline, knocking Fenris down.
Simone: Jake Raab isn't looking out of place in the ring with Fenris.
Ben: It's in the blood. I know the Raab's well and although Jake ain't quiet there yet, he will be someday.
Raab moves over to the stunned Fenris, reaching down and picking him up. Raab grabs him by the wrist and throws him harshly in to the corner, the former World Champion's back bouncing off the ring turnbuckles and Raab follows in with a flying clothesline, sending Fenris against the turnbuckle. Raab steps in and starts to kick Fenris with MMA kicks before taking him by the wrist and pulls him out with a short arm clothesline, knocking Fenris to the canvas. Raab drops down to the canvas and locks on a front facelock, and starts to connect with solid punches to Fenris's head..
Simone: Jake is trying to out MMA Fenris.
Ben: Bloody tough ask to do that.
Raab finishes off his assualt on Fenris's head with a final knee to the top of it and pulls him on to his feet. He pulls Fenris towards him and hooks up his head up before dropping him down with a snap DDT, the ring shaking on impact as the Icelandic native is driven in to the mat. Raab spins around on to Fenris and Jasmine drops down to make the count!
ONE!
TWO!
Fenris gets a shoulder up!
Ben: Never gonna beat fish lips like that.
The two quickly return to their feet, but Fenris reacts the quickest by jumping up and catching Jake on the jaw with a jumping heel kick.
Ben: And that's why you have to always be switched on against Fenris.
Jake sits up, looking surprised and Fenris blast him in the back with a kick to the spine, straightening him up. Jake rolls over on to his knees as Fenris stands beside him, lifting his leg and dropping it down across the back of Jake's neck with a switchblade kick.

Jake's head crashes in to the canvas and Fenris sits next to him, lifting his arm up and dropping elbows to the back of Jake's head.
Adams: Both men getting creative tonight.
Fenris moves on to Jake's back in a full mount position and starts to pummel the back of Jake's head, raining down fist after fist. Jasmine warns Fenris who steps up and off of Jake's back. Jake gets to his feet but Fenris grabs him and holds his head in place before hitting him with a knee strike, followed by a second, and third. Jake drops to his knees and Fenris lifts his leg and blasts Jake in the back to the head with a shining wizard from behind, Sending Jake on to his face.

Adams: I think he's trying to put on a show to impress you.
Ben: Mate, he's already impressive. Don't need to show me.
Fenris looks towards Ben but Ben pulls something out of his pocket.
Simone: Is that a chapstick?
Fenris looks curiously at Ben who throws the chapstick towards Fenris, who catches it at looks at it. He shakes his head before popping the top off and putting it on his lips. He kisses his hand and turns around, planting it on his rear!

Adams: Thanks for joining us.
Ben stands up as Fenris raises his arms in celebration, never taking his eyes off the SCW World Heavyweight champion.
The scene opens backstage at Climax Control where we are greeted by the adorable site of Caleb's rescue puppy Lemmy sniffing the camera and even getting a couple of licks in before the camera pans up and shows his owner checking his phone.
Simone: Okay, as cute as Lemmy is, Christian's probably going to complain about dog slobber on that camera.
Adams: Probably?!
Pussy Willow approaches Caleb and does her best to remain professional as the puppy greets her in the usual puppy manner.
Caleb: Wasn't expecting a visit from an interviewer, since I'm not in action tonight and all.
Pussy Willow: Admittedly it was an excuse to meet Lemmy but I have to ask, how are you taking your loss to Travis Levitt last week?
Caleb: It sucked but as the old saying goes, it's not how you start, it's how you finish, I don't know what, if anything, the bosses have in store for me next week but if it's a match then I plan on walking out the winner.
Having gotten her answer Pussy drops all pretenses and crouches down to stroke the puppy who greets her with puppy kisses.
Katie: There's a few jokes I could make about a dog licking a pussy.
Pussy laughs as she stands up.
Pussy Willow: You probably won't be the only one, now if you excuse me, I have to go back in the makeup chair because Rocky was not kidding.
Katie: Like I said last week, been there, done that, got the t-shirt.
Pussy walks off as the scene fades.
We cut ringside to Jason Adams and Belinda Simone
Adams: Ladies and Gentlemen, last week Alicia Lukas, former Bombshells champion was brutally attacked while she was delivering a speech in the ring in her hometown.
Simone: And after Bobbie Dahls attack it seems that Alicia's shoulder which was already hurt is now worse
Adams: And we have Alicia via satellite now to get an update...
We cut to Alicia who is sitting in what looks to be her home all mic'd up, her hair is tied back and her arm is in a sling as she swallows hard and gives a small nod.
Simone: Alicia thanks for joining us.
Adams: So, Alicia,l the damage...what happened?
Alicia chuckles to herself and sighs
Alicia Lukas: Well, what was a small tear that was going to take a few weeks to just feel better has now become a full tear and I have already had surgery to repair it, now I need to heal and rehab. And that should take...maybe...three to six months.
Simone: Wow, that sounds horrible. But are you looking at a three months time frame?..or will there be some trepidation for that?
Alicia Lukas: I'm looking to get back as soon as possible. I know it might be strange and some might wonder about me coming back too soon. Hell Big mouth Bobbie herself said I'll never be back at one hundred percent. But you and I both know that it's not true. When I come back I'll be coming back better than ever.
Adams: When you do return Alicia, what will be your target?. Will you be going after Bobbie and revenge or will you be going after whoever the champion is?
Alicia slowly smiles and clears her throat
Alicia Lukas: There is a chance it could be the same thing, It seems like Bobbie has her eyes set on Roxi and the title. But, if Bobbie fails to win the title which, let's face it, seems to be the direction we all see happening, I will be coming for her. See, she did something that part of me can respect. She saw a wounded lioness and decided to try and put me out, she decided she wanted to take me out back and put me out of me damn misery. But, the other side of me that doesn't respect it...is pissed off. So I hope Bobbie feels real good about herself now...cause in a few months...when I'm ready to come back...she won't see it coming...
She sneers and shakes her head as we cut back to ringside
Simone: Wait, what's going on backstage?
The camera cuts to the backstage area set up at the Marriott Grand Ballroom, to find Fenris leading Jake Raab by the arm, Jake still clearly feeling the after effects of that straight kick to his skull that led to Fenris's victory. Jake staggers, but Fenris does not let him fall and leads him over to the bar in the hotel's lobby, the guests of the hotel as well as the staff are all startled by the appearance of the two half-naked men, both bearing the signs of the conflict they had just been in.
Fenris stops at the bar counter, and Jake slowly sits down as Fenris holds two fingers up to the young woman behind the bar. She quickly fills two tall glasses with the desired beer and sets one down in front of Jake, and the other she hands to Fenris. Fenris holds his up to Jake who picks up his own glass and they clink before they both start drinking deeply.
Adams: Welp! Fenris did make a promise to take Jake out after their fight for a beer and he just delivered!
Simone: Bombshell Tag Team match is up next and we're being joined, again, by a surprise commentator.
Adams: Why does she have to sit next to me?!
Bobbie: Oh relax, Jason, I don't bite. Hard.
Simone: This night just keeps getting better and better.
Justin: Ladies and gentlemen our next contest is scheduled for one fall and it is a Bombshell Tag Team match!!
Crowd: *POP*
Meganerd by YTcracker begins to blast all across the speakers as it does so Christina Rose makes her way from the back curtain. Christina smiles as she blows kisses to the crowd as she makes her way down to the ring. She slaps the outstretched hands of all of the roaring fans.
Justin: Introducing first! Weighing in at one-hundred fifteen pounds! Christina Rose!!
Bobbie: He means Crystal Hilton. Because we all know Christina IS and always will be Crystal Hilton.
Simone: Do you have faith in anyone, Bobbie?
Adams: Stop playing footsie with me!
Bobbie: Damn, I should do this more often. This is fun.
Simone: Please don't.
She quickly slides into the ring and kips up to her feet as she waves her hands in the air getting the crowd behind her. She jumps around a bit as she tosses her eye glasses to a ring crew member, before standing in her corner as her music dies down!
The arena fades to black as the screen lights up and we are treated to an old school movie countdown image.

Justin: And her tag team partner...Weighing in at one hundred twenty-five pounds!! Seleana Zdunich!!
Suddenly the countdown is stopped by claws slashing through the image and a cat's roar sounds through the arena. Janet Jackson's "Black Cat" blasts through the speakers and Seleana Zdunich makes her way through the curtain. She makes her way to the ring, slapping hands along the way as the crowd cheers her on.
Bobbie: Can someone explain to me how those two came to be married? I just don't get it!
Simone: And people don't get how Artie can love such a vile woman like you, but he does.
Adams: Ooh! Burn number one for Belinda!
Bobbie: What can I say? I'm just that good in bed...
Simone: Jason, where is that bucket of yours? I think I'm gonna be sick.
Like a Phoenix" begins to slowly play as the lights go out. Two lights from the stage is seen showing Keira's shadow, raising her arms.
Justin: And their opponents! Introducing first! Weighing in at one hundred twenty pounds! Keira Fisher-Johnson!!
Bobbie: Wake me up when the match starts...
Simone: How about no. I like you better when you're not talking.
Thelights come back on as Keira turns and walks down the ring. She slaps a few fans hands as she slides in. She raises her hand and shouts out, "Like a HERO, BABY!" as she waits for her wife and tag team partner to enter. Keira spots Bobbie sitting at the announce table and glares at the woman who defeated her last month at December 2 Dismember.
Bobbie: Someone is still salty.
Adams: Ooor she's just as confused as us as to why you are here!
Simone: She's here to cause problems. What is so confusing about that?
Bobbie: Problems? No. I just wanted to see this one up close and personal!
The opening keyboard notes of "The Touch" begin on the PA system. Stan Bush's voice rings out and soon the power chords kick in to begin the song. The cameras pan around the arena, and soon, spotted in amongst the fans, is Roxi Johnson slowly making her way through them, slapping the fans five and getting patted on the shoulders as he moves through the swarm of fans.
Justin: And finally! Making her way to the ring! Weighing in at one hundred thirty two pounds! She is the reigning World Bombshell Champion! Roxi Johnson!!
Bobbie: Not for long, Justin.
Simone: Somehow I don't think you'll be the one to stop her.
The fans continuing singing with the song as Roxi continues her journey through them, stopping and singing along with them. She treks onward, seemingly greeting every fan, before she is lifted on top of the fans and they crowd surf her towards the ring, imitating a superhero "flying" motion. She makes it and lands on her feet on the arena floor to which she high fives the closest fan before climbing up on the apron and climbing the turnbuckle and raising her arms in the air to massive cheers. She jumps down from the top turnbuckle and lands in the ring, looking directly to Bobbie at the commentary table. Roxi just shakes her head and rolls her eyes, not paying any attention to Bobbie.
Simone: Looks like your plan isn't going to work.
Bobbie: And you know what I'm planning, how exactly?
Adams: Again...why does she have to be sitting next to me?!
All four women talk it over and decide who will begin the match until Roxi and Seleana step through the ropes and to the ring apron. Keira and Christina turn and face one another as they wait for the bell.
Bobbie: Oh, look! It's Keira's fantasy finally coming true!
Simone: What are you talking about?!
Bobbie: What? Everyone knows she has a lady boner for Christina..or Crystal. Whatever!
Jacob finally calls for the bell!
DING DING DING!
Keira and Christina start circling one another slowly, but neither showing any arrogance. They circle around the ring for a few moments before charging at each other and engaging in front arm lock up, each trying to overpower the other! Christina pushes Keira towards the ropes, then Keira pushes back. The fight for the upperhand is eventually taking over as Christina uses every bit of strength she has and gets Keira against the ropes! Neither wants to break the hold as Jacob begins his count!
Bobbie: Why do they have to play so nice? It's a wrestling match!
Adams: They're all friends! Who cares?!
Simone: And they have respect for one another, that's why.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
FOUR!
Christina then brings her knee up and into Keira's midsection, causing both women to break the hold before the five count!
Bobbie: That's definitely a Crystal tactic.
Christina backs away and a shocked Keira glares at Christina. Christina just shrugs with a friendly smile, and Keira backs away from the ropes. Roxi simply shakes her head and urges Keira to "play nice," as Roxi and Christina start circling one another again. It doesn't last this long this time as Keira charges at Christina, but Christina drops down and Keira leaps over Christina and goes at the ropes!
Simone: Smart move by Christina.
Bobbie: Christina? Smart? Ha!
Christina jumps back to her feet as Keira leaps at the ropes and springboards back with a high knee that just clips Christina's head and she stumbles back, but keeps her footing! Keira, however, keeps on her as she goes after her, grabbing her by her long blue hair and throws her across the ring in a hair toss!
Bobbie: Yes! Rip that horrible blue hair out!
Adams: It's still better than that boxed bleach you've used on your hair!
Simone: Good one, Jason!
Bobbie: Don't make me punch you in your junk, Jason.
Keira runs over to the corner turnbuckle nearest where Christina landed and quickly climbs up! She turns around, looking directly down st Christina for a second before leaping off and trying to hit her with a flying elbow! But Christina rolls out of the way JUST in time, and Keira's elbow crashes into the mat instead! Christina then leaps at Keira, hitting her with an elbow to the head before going for the cover!
Bobbie: If Keira loses it with a botched elbow drop...
ONE!
TWO!
Keira kicks out!
Simone: Looks like she's not as horrible as you think.
Bobbie: No. She still is.
Keira holds her elbow, clearly hurting early on, as Christina jumps up to her feet and heads over to Seleana. She tags her wife in, and Seleana climbs up to the top rope! She waits, however, as Keira begins shaking some feeling back into her elbow and starts getting back to her feet!
Simone: Keira doesn't see Seleana on the turnbuckle!
Adams: And she doesn't hear Roxi's warning!
Bobbie: Big surprise there..
Roxi tries to warn Keira, but Keira spins around anyway and Seleana leaps off the top turnbuckle right at Keira going for a high cross body! Keira ducks and leaps forward and Seleana lands on her feet, but Keira spins around and hits Seleana with a superkick to the back of the head! Seleana stumbles and crashes forward right by Roxi!
Bobbie: Here we go! The superhero of all superheroes is about to be tagged in!
Keira pulls Seleana up to her feet, keeping her trapped in the corner, where she starts delivering a series of right shots to Seleana's temple! The crowd starts counting along with each shot, as Roxi waits to be tagged in!
Simone: Why isn't Keira making the tag?
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
FOUR!
FIVE!
SIX!
Adams: Why isn't Roxi tagging herself in?!
Bobbie: Because they're too good for that stuff!
Christina has had enough and she dashes through the ropes trying to assist her wife! Jacob immediately stops her and Keira turns around, momentarily distracted and without tagging Roxi in! Jacob finally gets Christina back to her own corner, but Seleana had recovered enough that she's looking right at Keira!
Bobbie: Keira really isn't that smart is she?
Simone: WHY are you here right now? Don't we hear enough of your Keira insults on Twitter?!
Bobbie: I had an interest in this match. Duh.
Simone: No, you have an interest in the title that Roxi is holding, which you think you deserve. But no one thinks you do!
Keira turns around, expecting Seleana to still be dazed, but Seleana charges at her and goes for a spear! Keira jumps to the side and spins around to face Roxi, but after not hitting the spear, Seleana had simply rolled forward in a somersault and jumped back to her feet! She quickly rushes at Keira again as Keira goes for the tag!
Adams: So close, yet not close enough.
Bobbie: Face it, Roxi has always been the one to carry Team Hero. It's why she's the one that has held the World Bombshell Championship three times, and Keira hasn't held it once.
Simone: Any one of those women in the ring deserve to be the top champion more than you. You're just a miserable hag.
Bobbie: Hey Belinda...eat me!
Seleana leaps on to Keira's back and brings her down in a backbreaker against her knees, but Seleana's head accidentally bounces off the canvas and she knocks herself silly! Both women are down as the crowd starts going crazy waiting for either women to make the tag! But the "Roxi!" chants make it clear who they really want to see in this match!
Bobbie: These people are stupid. Cheering for a fake!
Simone: And yet they are the ones who buy all of the merchandise. How much have you sold recently versus any of those ladies in the ring?!
Adams: Burn number two, Belinda!
Both Seleana and Keira start to stir and begin crawling towards their corner and their respective wives! Roxi and Christina are both reaching into the ring, waiting to be tagged, but Seleana and Keira are slow moving! Keira is slightly closer to Roxi than Seleana is to Christina and with one great leap, she finally tags Roxi in! The crowd goes nuts!
Simone: Finally! The champion is in the match!
Bobbie: Yay...Go Roxi. Nooooot.
Roxi darts through the ropes and Seleana just isn't close enough! Roxi grabs Seleana's foot and drags her farther back! Seleana rolls over on to her back trying to kick Roxi away, but Roxi has full energy and it doesn't work! Roxi stops and delivers a quick leg drop and hooks the leg!
ONE!
TWO!
Th- No! Seleana gets her shoulder up!
Bobbie: Amateur. Thinking a simple leg drop will end the match.
Simone: She has more experience than you and you're calling her an amateur?!
Roxi gets up to her feet and takes a step back, thinking her next move through. Seleana reaches for the ropes and starts pulling herself up and Roxi runs at the opposite side against the ropes! She charges at Seleana, and Seleana drops down causing Roxi to go over the top rope! But Roxi lands on the ring apron! She reaches over and grabs Seleana but Seleana drops down again, this time causing Roxi's throat to bounce off the top rope! Roxi crashes to the outside, giving Seleana time to recover and Christina is BEGGING to be tagged back in!
Bobbie: Haha! Good one, Seleana!
Simone: God, please let this match end soon. I can't take much more of this woman!
Adams: And I can't take much more of her trying to play footsie with me!
Roxi barely moves on the outside as she tries to catch her breath and her barings. Keira drops down from the apron and goes to check on her wife just as Seleana makes the tag to Christina! Christina quickly climbs to the top turnbuckle, turn towards Roxi and Keira who is now checking on her!
Bobbie: Bye-bye, Team Hero.
Simone: Christina is about to fly!
Christina wastes no time as she leaps off the turnbuckle and crashes against BOTH Roxi and Keira in a double cross body! All three women are down, and Seleana is still recovering in the ring! Christina is the first back to her feet, having had the longest time to recover earlier and she shoves Keira away from Roxi and pulls Roxi up. She slides Roxi back into the ring before pulling herself up to the ring apron!
Bobbie: This match sucks. It needs a little excitement!
Simone: I think it's been..Hey, where are you going?!
Adams: This isn't good..
Christina bides her time and waits for the opportune moment. Roxi gets herself to her hands and knees and Christina launches herself up and over the top rope with a leg drop to the back of Roxi's head! She immediately rolls Roxi onto her back and goes for the cover!
ONE!
TWO!
Thr-NO! Roxi kicks out! And just as Christina is going to pull Roxi back to her feet and work to finish her off, she sees Bobbie Dahl stalking Seleana with a wicked grin on her face! Christina jumps to action and rushes over to the ropes, tipping Seleana off to what is happening! Bobbie backs up, holding her hands up defensively but Christina is having none of that!
Simone: Someone needs to knock her out, please! Give her a taste of her own medicine!
Adams: It's gonna take an army to do that!
Keira, meanwhile, is back to her feet now and she, too, is fending Bobbie off! Seleana has jumped down from the apron and she and Keira slowly walk towards Bobbie, keeping the larger woman at bay! Christina is shouting at Bobbie, and Bobbie seems unphased! Roxi has had more than enough time to recover and she's back to her feet, unbeknownst to Christina! Bobbie eventually points behind her, laughing, and Christina spins around! But Roxi doesn't attack her! She refuses to let Bobbie's distraction give her the upperhand over Christina!
Simone: There's that army, Jason! All four women have their eyes locked on Bobbie!
Jacob has eventually had enough, realizing that none of the women are doing anything but trying to keep Bobbie from interfering! He points to Bobbie, then to the back, ordering her away from ringside and the fans go wild! Bobbie is furious, and Roxi, Keira, Christina and Seleana all clap, pointing to the back! Bobbie has no choice but to obey Jacob's orders but she flips everyone off as she heads to the back! Keira and Seleana return to their corners as Roxi and Christina continue the match!
Simone: Thank you Justin!
Adams: I need to soak my feet as soon as I can. I feel dirty...
Roxi and Christina circle one another, but not for long as Christina charges at Roxi, attempting a quick clothesline! The champ ducks, spins around and hits Christina with a right forearm before grabbing her and whipping her against the ropes! Roxi drops forward going for a back body drop but Christina rolls right over Roxi's back, then pulls her down into an inside cradle!
ONE!
TWO!
Simone: Christina almost outsmarted the champ there!
Roxi quickly kicks out and both women roll back to their feet! Christina lunges at Roxi, attempting to set her up for a quick DDT, but Roxi reverses out and shoves Christina away! She rushes back to the ropes, jumps to the second rope and leaps back, hitting Christina with the Ray of Hope! She immediately goes for the cover!
ONE!
Seleana dashes through the ropes in an attempt to save her wife, and the match but Keira rushes into the ring, too, and charges at her!
TWO!
Keira nails Seleana with a spear!
THREE!
DING DING DING!
Simone: Team Hero does it again!
Adams: Wooo! The Heroes prevail!
Justin: Ladies and gentlemen, your winners via pinfall...Team Hero!!!
Roxi and Keira celebrate as Jacob raises their hands in victory! Seleana and Christina crawl to one another, both trying to recover until Roxi and Keira help them back to their feet! Roxi and Keira then raise Seleana and Christina's hands in a display of solidarity! The fans start booing and they all turn to face the backstage curtain where Bobbie Dahl is standing, grinning at all four of them with a sick smile!
Simone: Bobbie is mistaken if she thinks she can take on the entire bombshell roster herself. This is all going to come back and bite her in the ass.
Adams: But I think Bobbie will cause a little more chaos before that happens!
Simone: Not if Roxi Johnson has anything to say about it.
All four women continue to stare up the ramp at Bobbie, standing together. Bobbie points to Roxi and laughs before she turns and disappears backstage and Roxi, Keira, Seleana and Christina exit the ring together.
The camera cuts to the scene of The Golden Ring Casino, in Las Vegas, Nevada, focusing on the face of Daniel J Morgan, the leader of London Underground.
Daniel: Hello Lawrenceville, Georgia. Sadly we are not there with you tonight, but we have very much been watching all that's been going on. Now I planned on sitting here talking to you about anyone who we might have put on notice last week saying we'll invite them to step up, but seems tonight, no one has opened the mouths to step up to these.
The camera zooms out a little to see Charlotte Elliot and Mackenzie Page standing either side of Daniel with the SCW Mixed Tag Team championships over their shoulder, with Osbourne standing directly behind Daniel.
Daniel: Unless you count someone who hasn't been heard from in the last couple of months have a little bitch fit on Twitter because we said something he didn't like. If you can't figure out who, keep an eye on Twitter when this airs, he'll be the one sub tweeting.
Daniel straightens up his tie.
Daniel: But I ain't too worried about that or his thoughts that you need to have tunnel vision about gold to be successful, because there's other sides of this business that doesn't involve wrestling, but does put money in wrestlers pockets, so it's time to show you this.
The camera zooms out to show the four standing in front of a new store in the Golden Ring Casino, a neon sign above saying "Shop SCW".
Daniel: Ladies and Gentlemen, opening in a couple of weeks in The Golden Ring Casino, a shop for all your SCW merchandise that you can order online, plus something very special. The first Sin City Underground merchandise produced by the people running the company and we will have that person right here to see you all, SCU's very own, Kelli Torres. So join us, and Kelli, and a few surprises too and pick up your SCW and Kelli Torres merchandise directly from the Golden Ring Casino. Enjoy the rest of your night.
Daniel nods as we can back to the arena in Lawrenceville, Georgia.
Bobbie Dahl is seen backstage moments after Team Hero's victory over Christina and Seleana. She had made an appearance at the top of the ramp after, sending a message to Roxi at the end before disappearing backstage, which is where she now is. She's smiling proudly as she walks down the hall until Pussy Willow walks up to her.
Pussy Willow: Looks like your plan didn't work.
Bobbie rolls her eyes and folds her arms before glaring her eyes right at Pussy.
Bobbie: Shows how much you know. I didn't really have a plan. I just did whatever the hell I want. Is that all you wanted to say?
Pussy Willow: You realize that pitting yourself against Roxi is not a smart move, right? She's not as easy to get through as you-
Bobbie holds her hand up in Pussy's face, silencing her.
Bobbie: As I think? That's what you were going to say, right? I'm not an idiot, I know going up against Roxi isn't going to be easy. But I don't WANT it to be. I get she's the champ. I get she's a hall of famer and she had the whole world standing behind her because she's a damn hero! I get it!
Pussy Willow blinks, not risking saying another word. Bobbie just smirks arrogantly.
Bobbie: But that's the best part. Having everyone rooting for their favorite hero, and then listening to their disappointed cries when..she loses. When the villain...
Bobbie points to herself and mouths the word "me."
Bobbie: Wins. And then when I put her out of commission for a very long time, because I CAN and WILL do it!
Pussy Willow: If you're so focused on Roxi, why did you try to go after Seleana tonight? What was the point of doing that to give the distraction to Christina and try and help Roxi get the win?
Bobbie laughs.
Bobbie: Oooh, Pussy. Is THAT what you think I was doing? You all are in for quite the surprise then, aren't you? Because that is absolutely not what I was doing. But pay attention a little more. You might be able to figure out what I'm doing.
Bobbie smiles and winks one last time before she steps around Pussy and continues walking away.
Justin: This match is a Roulette Championship match pitting the Roulette Champion Griffin Hawkins against the challenger Alex Jones. First to make his way to the ring, from Windsor, Ontario, Canada, by way of Los Angeles, California, standing in at six feet two inches and two hundred twenty-seven pounds, he is the current Sin City Wrestling Roulette Champion, GRIFFIN HAWKINS!!!
The lights turn colors from Red to Green to various other colors as "Made In Hell" by Rob Halford begins to fill the air. Fog fills the stage, and emerging from it is none other than Griffin Hawkins! The crowd is cheering as he makes his way down to the ring, slapping hands with the fans as signs that read "Griffin Rox" and "Rock Soldier" are present. He soaks in the positive reaction as he walks up the steps and steps between the ropes. He gets on the turnbuckles and raises the Devil Horns in the air with both hands, pumping the crowd up. He gets down, taking off his leather jacket before getting out of the ring. He sees a young little boy in the front row as he takes off his silver aviator shades. He places his sunglasses on the young fan who looks excited to be here, smiling as he pats him on the head. He rolls back into the ring, and kicks his feet up ropes in the corner of the ring and leans across the turnbuckle like it is a hammock, waiting for the match to begin.
Adams: Griffin Hawkins has been a great Roulette Champion having held the Championship twice.
Simone: The key here is that Hawkins held the Roulette Championship twice. That is because he can be defeated as Teddy Warren proved recently. Now it is time for Alex Jones to show the world he can also defeat Griffin Hawkins for the Roulette Championship.
Justin: The next participant in this match, from Dallas, Texas, standing in at six feet even and two hundred twenty-five pounds, THE BLACK DRAGON ALEX JONES!!!
"Chasing Glory" by Feed Her to the Sharks hits and as the lyrics of the intro cut into the guitar Alex steps out wearing a black and red "wolfslair" t-shirt and his wrestling gear. He makes his way down to the ring with an arrogant sneer before leaping up onto the ring apron. Alex ducks through the ropes and stirs up the crowd before settling into a corner to await the start of the match.
Justin: Here to spin the Roulette Wheel to determine the type of match this will be is Ms. Rocky Mountains!
Rocky Mountains grabs the Roulette Wheel and gives it a hearty spin. As the wheel starts to slow down everyone is waiting to see what type of match this will be. The wheel slows down and stops on the slot marked SUBMISSION ONLY.
Justin: Ladies and gentlemen the Roulette Wheel has landed on SUBMISSION ONLY which means the only way to win this match is by submission.
Adams: Both wrestlers have good submission moves and holds in their arsenal so this match should prove to be interesting and exciting.
Simone: Having good submission moves and holds is one thing but to have great submission moves and holds as Alex Jones does is something else.
Adams: There is no size advantage in this match with Griffin at six feet two inches and 227 pounds and Alex at six feet even and 225 pounds. This match will come down to who can apply their submission moves and holds the best and maintain them for the submission win.
Simone: That is an easy one to answer. Alex Jones.
Referee Drew Patton motions to the Timekeeper to ring the bell to officially start this match.
DING DING DING!
Griffin Hawkins and Alex Jones fly out of their corners and slam into each other in the middle of the ring. They lock up and try to get the advantage over the other. The struggle continues until Alex manages to push Griffin into a corner where he starts punching him Referee Patton steps in the request a break but Jones refuses to stop laying into Hawkins so Drew Patton makes a quick break count on Alex.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
Alex Jones breaks and backs away from Griffin Hawkins. Hawkins is complaining to Referee Patton about the punches and refusal to break when they were in the corner on the part of Jones. Patton informs Griffin that he is in control of the officiating of this match and not the wrestlers involved. On top of that Referee Patton reminds Griffin that a wrestler has until a five count to break. Hawkins has to accept that comment from the Referee even though he disagrees with it.
Adams: Alex Jones better watch what he is doing or he may end up losing this match by being counted out for not breaking when the Referee calls for it.
Simone: I do not believe Referee Patton would do that to either of these wrestlers as this is a Championship match and a Referee usually allows more to take place in Championship matches.
Griffin Hawkins, still upset at the first exchange of the match, charges toward Alex Jones and they again trade blows and then Hawkins kicks the lower legs of Jones then locks in his Painkiller Calf Killer. He has it locked in tightly and Referee Patton steps in to ask Jones if he wants to submit. He yells out NO and the match continues. They are close to the ropes and Alex Jones manages to inch his way to the ropes where he grabs the ropes and Referee Patton calls for a break. Griffin Hawkins obeys the Referee by breaking the hold but he stomps on the lower legs of Alex before walking to the opposite side of the ring.
Adams: First attempt at a submission goes to Griffin Hawkins.
Simone: It does not matter how many attempts at a submission a wrestler attempts. The only one that counts in this type of match is the one that results in a submission victory.
Alex Jones gets to his feet and he leans on the ropes with one hand while massaging his legs with the other hand. Alex maneuvers to a corner where he leans back against the ropes waiting to see what Griffin will do next. As Hawkins approaches Jones we see Alex step out from the corner. Griffin charges Alex and attempts a clothesline but he is hit hard by Jones and then Alex quickly ties Griffin up in his Koji Clutch submission hold. Unfortunately for Alex when they land on the mat the legs of Griffin are close enough to the ropes that he is able to kick his legs up and get his feet on the ropes. This results in Referee Drew Patton ordering Jones to release the hold since Hawkins has his feet on the ropes. Alex is upset but he has to accept the decision by the Referee and he breaks the hold. When released Griffin Hawkins rolls out of the ring to the arena floor to walk around for a bit.
Adams: That was a close call for Griffin Hawkins. Good thing he landed close to the ropes to get a break on the hold.
Simone: That simply means the next time Alex Jones applies a submission hold on Griffin Hawkins he will be sure to do it where Griffin cannot reach the ropes for a break.
Hawkins walks around for a short time before climbing the ring steps then walking along the ring apron. As he is standing on the ring apron Jones runs at Griffin and lands a blow on him. Hawkins is briefly stunned then he pulls on the ropes and dives over the top of Jones dragging him to the mat. He quickly turns Alex around and locks in a Texas Cloverleaf. Referee Patton steps in to ask Jones if he wants to submit and again he loudly states NO so the match continues. Alex reaches out and he is just a few inches from the ropes. He manages to get close enough to the ropes to get a break from the Referee. Griffin releases the hold on Alex but he is not happy he had to do it.
Adams: Both wrestlers are being aggressive and trying to get the submission win but both have allowed the other to be close enough to the ropes to end up getting the break on the hold.
Simone: Something has to give soon.
Both wrestlers are again on their feet and again trading blows. Alex Jones executes a DDT on Griffin Hawkins then he gets up and stomps on the lower back of Hawkins. Alex then maneuvers Griffin up and drops him on his knee on his lower back with a Pendulum Backbreaker Stretch. The pain on Griffin Hawkins is apparent but he refuses to submit when asked by the Referee. With both arms free Hawkins is attempting to use that to his advantage. With his free arm he manages to reach up and rake the eyes of Jones causing Alex to release the hold. Referee Patton warns Griffin of using an eye rake. Hawkins rolls to the side of the ring where he slowly gets to his feet while keeping his eyes on Jones.
Simone: An illegal eye rake. Now who would have expected that?
Adams: I did not expect that from Griffin Hawkins.
Simone: Figures.
Hawkins waits until Jones charges him and he side-steps the blow grabbing the arm of Alex and bringing the arm back in a hammer lock. Griffin cinches up on the hammer lock while delivering blows to the shoulder of Jones. Alex is struggling to get out of the hold so Griffin spins Jones around, keeping the arm of Alex behind his back, and Hawkins picks Jones up and slams him hard into the mat landing him on the already hurting shoulder. Hawkins drags Jones to the center of the ring and quickly locks him into his Whammy Bar Fujiwara Armbar. Griffin has it tightly locked in on Alex and the pain Jones is experiencing is apparent on his face and on the groans he is making. Referee Drew Patton leans in to ask Alex Jones if he wants to submit and once again he tells the Referee HELL NO so Patton lets the match continue. Not satisfied with Jones not submitting Hawkins tightens his grip on the arm of Jones and he leans back causing extreme pain. Alex Jones knows he cannot escape this hold, or get to the ropes for a break, so he taps out. Referee Patton calls for the bell and orders Griffin Hawkins to release the hold and Griffin does so then he gets up and stands off to to the side.
DING DING DING!
Adams: It turned out like you said Belinda that it will come down to the wrestler who can apply a submission hold in the center of the ring to prevent their opponent from getting to the ropes for the break.
Simone: Yes but I was hoping that wrestler was Alex Jones.
Justin: Ladies and gentlemen here is the winner of this match, by submission, and still Sin City Wrestling Roulette Champion GRIFFIN HAWKINS!!!
Referee Drew Patton raises the hand of Griffin Hawkins for the win the the crowd cheers for him. Patton drops the hand of Hawkins and Griffin slides out of the ring and makes his way toward the backstage area shaking hands with fans on his way. Once Hawkins disappears in the backstage area our attention is returned to the ring where Alex Jones is getting out of the ring and massaging his shoulder from the Whammy Bar Fujiwara Armbar. When he gets to the arena floor he slowly hears for the backstage area receiving a mixed reaction from the fans.
The Dragon: Make way for your NEW Underground champion, coming to a locker room in YOUR home town...
The title wagon rolled on, the High School band not missing a step as they followed Mark Cross and his megaphone through the corridors making a mighty racket as ring techs and producers scattered to get out of their path.
As they turn a corner, they almost run into a certain blonde bombshell with a sleeping baby in her arms. But soon, the sleeping baby wasn't asleep anymore instead, was screaming and crying, upset from being woken up from his nap.
Mikah: Seriously!? What is wrong with you idiots?!
Mikah holds a glare on her face as she tries to console her sleeping child. She looks at him and then at the marching band, who almost immediately quiets.
Mikah: I get that you're doing...whatever this is but you don't have to be so fuc--freaking loud!
The last trumpet almost makes a sighing sound as it comes to a halt. The bunch of high schoolers, who'd previously been getting more and more into their role, now shuffled nervously on the spot.
The Dragon: Ohhhhh you have a...sorry if I knew there were going to be babies I'd have...bought a smaller marching band or something...
He turns around to face the band, asking to nobody in particular.
The Dragon: Guess the Underground title celebration ends here then. Thanks guys, you can go!
Confused, the gaggle of musicians start to disband and head back along the corridor.
The Dragon: So hi, I'm Mark. Nice to meet you and little...erm...
Mikah gives him a dirty look as she bounces Myles in her arms as he starts to slowly calm down. Mikah just raises an eyebrow at the man in front of her with an unimpressed look on her face.
Mikah: I'm sure it's all your pleasure, isn't it?
She just looks at Myles again before looking at the man in front of her again. She raises eyebrow at him as she moves Myles in her arms to get a little more comfortable.
Mikah: And don't even act like you don't know who I am because everybody SHOULD know who I am.
She doesn't bother giving out her name or Myles' for that fact.
Mark scratched the back of his head, realising that his little marching band stunt was clearly responsible for the level of attitude he was now receiving. Probably expected.
The Dragon: Yeah, you're probably my future Blast from the Past partner. You're signing up right?
Mikah lets out a laugh and looks him over before looking at Myles, as if she expected him to say something as well.
Mikah: You're kidding me right?
She then sees the serious look on his face before she rolls her eyes at him.
Mikah: I don't do tag team wrestling. And before you ask, I'm a former 3 time Bombshell Champion. I ran the division before Alicia Lukas was even a thing here.
She looks him over before laughing.
Mikah: And for the longest time, I was the one people compared themselves to. And I was apart of the 2019 Hall of Fame class.
She shakes her hair out of her face and then pushes it behind her shoulder.
Mikah: And I'm married to Drake Green, another SCW Hall of Famer.
She looks at him before laughing again.
Mikah: So in short, no. I'm not signing up for the Blast From the Past. I'm here to show my support for Ben Jordan. He's a friend of mine.
The Dragon: Dammit...I don't think I brought a notepad...
Mark pats away at his pockets.
The Dragon: Sorry, could you run those parts about when you used to be relevant past me again? I'm sure I'll remember them all the second time.
She looks at him before laughing. She reaches out and pats his head in a condescending sort of way.
Mikah: It's cute that you think relevancy means anything to me.
She looks down at the baby who had settled back down against her chest, his pacifier in his mouth.
Mikah: There are more important things in my life other than relevancy to a nobody like you.
Mark throws his hands up in the air.
The Dragon: Can everybody STOP with this nobody thing! How many more wins before finally someone says 'oh yeah you're doing alright' it's honestly unbelievable. Mz. Rocky Mountains still runs away from me most of the time. Just can't catch a break...
Mark sighs, slinging the Underground title off his shoulder, looking at it for a second.
Mikah: That sounds like a you problem and not a me problem. I don't have those types of problems.
She just shrugs her shoulders before patting Myles' back.
Mikah: Maybe you should try not being so obnoxious. Maybe people would notice you better.
She then looks him over.
Mikah: But then again...probably not.
The Dragon: Less obnoxious huh? That's kind of my unique selling point...
Mark weighs that idea up in his head for a minute.
The Dragon: Nah, I think I'll probably stick to what I know, but thanks for the tip. Lovely to meet you Mikah, you're a real Blast. From the Past.
Without waiting for a response, the Dragon turns on his heel and strides back down the corridor in the hunt for his marching band.
The camera cuts back to the backstage area just minutes before the main event, where Ben Jordan stands with the SCW World Championship title over his shoulder. Pussy Willow stands next to him.
Pussy Willow: I am standing here with the SCW World Heavyweight Champion, Ben Jordan, just minutes away from your first championship defence. How are you feeling Ben?
Ben: Well you never forget your first Pussy...
Ben frowns as the words fall out of his mouth.
Ben: You know what I mean, you never forget your first defence and frankly, it ain't gonna get much tougher than this. Tonight, I could end up a former champion, a bloke who showed up, shocked the world, only to lose it this soon. To be fair though, for the first few defences against top people, I'm gonna be the underdog champion, I'm gonna be forced to show everyone what I can do, to make them sit up and take notice and this is the perfect chance to do that. I ain't gonna be looked at the same if I go through Vinnie. People can sit there and argue the toss about the fact that in those six way matches, it's all circumstance, it's all a little luck here and there, but one on one, it's more skill. Tonight, I get rid of the doubters about me by taking out a former champion.
Pussy Willow: You've certainly brought out the stars tonight to see your first defence, Mikah's been walking around backstage and Drake Green is in the crowd.
Ben: I'm so glad they could make it, they're world championship royalty, the fact that they flew all this way to see me defend the championship for the first time, the fact they did that for me is special, and I know I gotta put in a big performance to make it worth it for them. I know they were two of the first people to wish me congrats when I won, and I wanted them to be here. 2020 has started off incredible and they're making it extra special.
Ben smiles.
Pussy Willow: Are you already looking towards Fenris?
Ben: Well I gotta one way or the other. Unless that numpty ex of Fenris' and his silly little friend turns up and ballses up us two going one on one again, yes people they robbed you, then it's happening so year, I'm looking forward to it, well towards it anyway. It's like the old boxing rules, protect yourselves at all times and the way you do that is looking at ya opponent a lot and learning.
Pussy Willow: Did you learn anything tonight by watching Fenris up close?
Ben: Yeah, duck a lot faster than Jake Raab did.
Ben smiles as he looks at Pussy.
Pussy Willow: Are you disappointed no one has answered your open challenge?
Ben: Nah, maybe they don't expect me to be champion after tonight or maybe I'm the head of a mature division that don't feel entitled and wants to work for it. Says a lot about the division being work horses and not wanting to take shortcuts to the top.
Pussy Willow: Anyway Ben, your match is up next. Good luck.
Ben: Cheers.
Ben walks away as the camera goes back to ring side.
The camera picks up a shot of SCW senior referee, Jasmine St. John, stepping through the ring ropes.
Adams: Oh boy! There's Jasmine entering the ring! That means it's time for the Main Event!
Simone: Jasmine never passes up the opportunity to referee a world title match, be it for the Bombshell's belt or the Superstar's.
The official takes her lace in the near corner as Justin Decent steps up to begin the introductions.
Justin: Ladies and gentlemen! The following contest is the Main Event of Climax Control! It is scheduled for one fall, and it is for the SCW World Heavyweight Championship!
The crowd is in anticipation of the arrival of the next wrestler as the lights go out and a huge cactus emerges upon the Titan Tron. We hear Epic from Metalachi hit the sound system as a big figure emerges in the dark, he slowly turns around as he stares at the Titan Tron where a large picture of Pete the Cactus emerges. His eyes are fixed on it before turning around and enters the ring.
Justin: Coming down the aisle, standing in at 6'8 and weighing in at 280 pounds!! Hailing from Tijuana, Mexico!! He is the challenger! Senor Vinnie!!!!
The spotlight shines upon the man as he looks up towards the ring, mumbling something while walking towards the ring. There he crawls over towards the center of the ring and stares at the fans at the front row seats. He then slowly walks towards the neutral corner and sits down and ignores the music of the next entrant.
Simone: Not just the challenger but the former champion! Senor Vinnie lost that very championship at December 2 Dismember IV where Ben Jordan walked away with the gold.
Adams: Vinnie had a pretty god run after he won the title with wins over Ty West and Alex Jones.
Simone: And he wasted no time in cashing in his rematch clause, wanting that title back.
Justin: And his opponent...!
The opening guitar riff to "Blame it on the Boom Boom" by Black Stone Cherry starts to play. The riff repeats itself once more. A British flag appears on the screen, waving with a gray filter and the lyrics kick in.
The familiar face of Ben Jordan appears on the screen. The fans instantly burst in to cheers as a smiling Ben Jordan appears at the top of the ramp, dressed in a white shorts with matching knee pads and boots. Ben looks around the crowd, his trademark smile on his face. He turns his head to the left, winking at the crowd before slowly walking down the ramp. He moves to the left, running his hand along the fans, high fiving as many as possible, before moving to the right and doing the same. Ben stops in front of a fan with a phone and moves next to them, allowing them to take a selfie with the smiling Englishman.
Justin: Making his way down the aisle! From London, England, weighing 220 pounds, he is the reigning and defending SCW World Heavyweight Champion -- Ben Jordan!
He stands outside the ring, looking up at ring, before moving to the steps and jumping up them. He ducks down and in to the ring through the middle and top rope and spins in to the corner, climbing on the top rope and raising his hands. He quickly jumps down and moves towards the center of the ring, looking at his opponent.
Simone: Over six years ago Ben Jordan debuted in SCW in a tag team match with Simon Jones as his partner. Since then he has ben a Tag Team Champion and a Roulette Champion, but the World title remained elusive..
Adams: He only had one chance at the title against J2H, and that was years ago! Ben deserves better!
Simone: And he proved that when he outlasted five other men in the Six-Pack Survival match to finally claim the gold for the first time in his storied career.
Ben removes the belt from his grasp and immediately Vinnie walks over and snatches it from Ben's hands! Vinnie holds it up and points to himself and Jasmine has to forcibly pry it from his grasp as the two titans separate! Jasmine holds the championship up high and the crowd cheers!
Simone: Ben won the title, now we will see if he can keep it!
Jasmine passes the gold out to Justin and calls for the bell!
DING DING DING!
Simone: You can already feel the tension in this match between champion and challenger!
Adams: Vinnie hasn't forgiven those men for eliminating him so early in the Six-Pack match and costing him the championship!
Simone: Gosh, you'd almost think that wasn't the point of a championship match
Vinnie and Ben met in the center of the ring and Ben offers his hand as a gesture of good sportsmanship, and Vinnie gladly obliges - right before pulling him right into a hard knee to the midsection, doubling Ben over.
Adams: Well so much for sportsmanship!
Simone: Vinnie took a great deal of pride in being champion and he wants that prestigious position again.
Vinnie goes right to work on the current champion, firing him off into the ropes and sending Ben to the mat with a hard shoulder tackle!
Simone: Ben can not let himself get drawn into a power game against Vinnie who has quite the size advantage over the champion.
Vinnie rushes into the ropes where Ben drops down to the mat and Vinnie runs over him and comes off the far side. Vinnie attempts a running big boot but Ben catches his boot! Vinnie hops around on one boot, waving Ben off and always the gentleman, Ben slowly lowers Vinnie's foot to the mat. Vinnie then tries to take advantage and he swings at Ben but Ben sees that coming from a mile away and he catches the former champion in a flying cross armbar! Vinnie kicks and struggles wildly but Vinnie's long legs allow him to reach the bottom rope and force the break. Vinnie slowly gets up, holding his arm as Ben rises, a smile on his face and holding his thumb and index finger close together.
Simone: Was I the only one who just saw Ben Jordan attempt to use one of Fenris's finishers?
Adams: Those two are scheduled to meet at My Bloody Valentine III. I hope Fenris is watching!
Ben and Vinnie slowly circle before locking up, and Vinnie immediately overpowers Ben, breaking the tie up and trapping the champion in an overhead wristlock. Ben however uses his own technical prowess to counter this, ducking behind Vinnie into a hammerlock. Ben then plants a boot to the back of Vinnie's knee, leveraging him down to the canvas and chain wrestling him into an inverted dragon sleeper while maintaining the hammerlock with his other arm.
Simone: When you see such technical skill, you have to wonder why it took so long for Ben to become the elite of SCW.
Jasmine is right down in the thick of things, asking Vinnie is he wants to submit but Vinnie has too much pride and refuses. He instead again uses his long legs to his advantage, whipping a leg up and connecting with Ben's head, surprising him. Vinnie then reaches up and snapmares Ben over him into a seated position in front of him. Immediately Vinnie starts throwing overhead forearms from behind into Ben's sternum, taking the fight to him! Vinnie then stands up and drags the startled champion to a standing position and he reels him into a short-arm clothesline!
Adams: Vinnie's taken control!
Simone: Wait ... uh oh! Does this answer your question from earlier???
The cameras pick up none other than Fenris walking down to the ringside area!
Adams: We saw Ben at ringside for his match earlier. I guess Fenris wants a closer look himself!
AS some fans reach out, they are all but ignored as "the White Wolf" marches around the ring until he arrives at the broadcast table. He grabs the chair beside Belinda...
Simone: Fenris, welcome to...
But Fenris drags the chair out from behind the desk and sets it right in the corer of the ring, beside the steps and he has a seat on it, staring intently at the competition taking place inside of the ring!
Adams: Wow, rude much?
Vinnie hauls Ben up off of his feet and military presses him high overhead. Vinnie smiles grandly and then drops Ben -- throat-first across the top rope!
Simone: God, the whiplash from such a move!
Ben ricochets backward and Vinnie damn near turns the champion inside out with a discus clothesline! Ben is folded in half and Vinnie immediately jackknifes him for the three count!
ONE!
TWO!
Ben kicks out!
Adams: Ben just won the world title! No way is he going to get beat that easily!
Vinnie stared at Jasmine for a brief moment before he stood up, and he backed up the corner until he sat upon the top turnbuckle. Poised, he waited for Ben to return to his feet and once he did, he jumped for a double axe handle, but Ben caught him and threw him over in a Belly to Ben suplex!
Simone: Belly to Ben?
Adams: Don't look at me! Chris wrote it!
The fans are immediately behind Ben once again, as the "Cockney King" barrels forward and levels Vinnie with a running forearm smash, then doubles back and lays him out once again with a leaping lariat! Ben drags him right up to his feet and Vinnie slams an elbow back into Ben's skull, knocking him back. Vinnie then takes a wild swing and Ben ducks and counters with a bridging German suplex!
ONE!
TWO!
Vinnie gets his shoulder up!
Adams: Close one!
Simone: It's going to take a lot to keep Vinnie away from that World Championship as well!
Ben pops up to his feet and just now realizes that he and Vinnie have company at ringside. He stares out at Fenris, points at his future challenger and salutes him. Fenris simply crosses his arms and stares, watching.
Adams: Hey what happens at My Bloody Valentine if Vinnie regains the title here tonight?
Simone: Then Vinnie either defends against Fenris or both men in a Triple Threat I would imagine.
Ben then turns back around to his downed opponent and grabs his leg, setting him up for the Figure 4. But as Ben turns around, Vinnie plants a bot to his backside and kicks him off so hard that it sends Ben right through the ropes and to the outside! As Ben recovers with Fenris watching less than ten feet away, Vinnie gets to his feet and ignores Jasmine's admonishing as he steps over the top rope and drops to the ringside floor to target the champion in his own environment! Vinnie grabs Ben by the arm and sends him crashing back against the steel guard rail! Ben stumbles forward, holding his back, and Vinnie shoulder blocks him from behind, causing him to crash headlong into the steel steps while the referee's count begins against the fans' wishes!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!...
Adams: The way Vinnie is going, we may have a new champion by the end of the night!
Vinnie then turns to Fenris and runs his hands along his waistline, signifying a new champion soon to be crowned as Jasmine continues her count.
FOUR!
FIVE!
SIX!
SEVEN!...
Vinnie rolls back inside of the ring just long enough to break the count before rolling outside to continue Vinnie drags Ben to his feet and he sets him up for an Irish whip but at the last moment Ben reverses it and ACCIDENTALLY sends Vinnie crashing right into Fenris! "The White Wolf" is wiped out, careening to the ringside floor where his head strikes the barricade with Vinnie sprawled on top of him!
Adams: Oh NO!
Simone: That was clearly an accident! Look at Ben!
Indeed the good natured Ben looks absolutely shocked and horrified at what he had just accidentally done to his friend! Ben hovers over Fenris who is holding his head in pain, but is forced to return to the match, taking Vinnie and rolling him back inside of the ring. One last check up on his friend and Ben climbs back into the ring, and walks right into an End of Days courtesy of the former champion! Vinnie covers him and hooks BOTH legs!
ONE!
TWO!
THR-Kick out by Ben!
Vinnie screams in frustrated rage as Jasmine confirms it was just a two count!
Simone: So close! Vinnie almost became a two-time Heavyweight Champion!
Vinnie stands up and argues with the official, but Jasmine is not intimidated and does not back down! Vinnie then turns back to Ben and drags him up and attempts a belly to back suplex, but Ben lands on his feet and takes Vinnie down to the mat in a Crossface!
Adams: Crossing Jordan! He has it!
Simone: But will Vinnie give in!?
Vinnie fights! He struggles! Jasmine asks him if he wants to submit but he is thus far refusing! Ben pulls him back even further into the hold, worsening the pressure! Vinnie then uses his free arm to drag himself closer toward the ropes and extends his hand to reach it -- but Ben uses his own feet to propel them backward, and right back into the hold in the middle of the ring! Vinnie STILL refuses to submit, despite the fact he raises his hand and is seemingly ready to do so! Vinnie AGAIN attempts to drag himself closer to the ropes when from out of nowhere, Ben scissors his arms, rolling backwards into a surprise Crucifix!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
DING DING DING!
Adams: He did it! He got the pin!
Simone: What a display! What a transition from Crossing Jordan into the Crucifix! And Ben Jordan remains the World Heavyweight Champion!
Jasmine presents Ben with the title belt and hoists his arm in the air!
Justin: Here is your winner, and STILL World Heavyweight Champion -- BEN JORDAN!
The crowd cheers as in his enthusiastic celebration, Ben briefly scoops Jasmine up and swings her around before setting her back on her feet! Ben then starts to mount the corner when he spots Fenris standing on the outside, holding the back of his head and staring intently into the ring -- right at him!
Adams: It was an accident Fenris!
Fenris slowly points right straight at him and Ben holds his arms out, trying to verbally explain...
Simone: Accident or not, when these two men eventually clash, it is going to be even more intense than ay of us believed possible! For Jason Adams, I am Belinda Simone! See you next week in Miami, Florida!
The closing shot as the credits roll is Ben watching as his friend backs up the aisle, their eyes locked!
THANK YOU! To Chris, Mark, Andy, The Lord MK, Jenny, Maggie, Annie, AJ, Mark Cross, Britt, Andrea, Fizz. Also again to Annie for the great match banners and to everyone who roleplayed!
