Mercedes: Violet Amelia Holt. You want a match with me at the super card, now is your chance to cash in on that offer and make a name for yourself. Me, I'm just going to add you to my checklist. Me and you, one-on-one. Ball is in your court.

The show cuts to a backstage area where we see Vinnie sitting down, holding a notebook in his hands while writing something down with a pencil. He stops writing and starts to think about something until he notices the camera crew and smiles.

Senor Vinnie: Welcome amigo's, I am thankful that you have come to listen to me speak. I know I am not booked this week as well as past week, but I have something important to say.

Simone: Good grief, not this guy.

Adams: Shhhh, he has got something to say.

Senor Vinnie: I know that since joining SCW few years ago, I have made more enemies than friends.

Simone: You can say that again.

Senor Vinnie: And I feel bad for all the bad things that I have done, I realized this after losing in the Blast From The Past tournament that Karma is going to bite you in the you know where. And whereas I have lost unfairly, I was taught a wise lesson by our favourite gringo boss Senor Christian... that what comes around, comes around. And I guess that's why people aren't sad about me not advancing in the finals.

Adams: It was unfair though..., but I guess he may have a point there.

Senor Vinnie: I Have made alist of people that I have done wrong, people that I hope that one day I could make it up to. Because let's face it, I am walking around with a lump in my throat and I cannot compete if I know you don't like me. And I want to start today with one person

Simone: I wonder who this is going to be. I bet it's

Senor Vinnie: Senorita Simone.

Simone: Err....,

Senor Vinnie: I know that Pete has haunted you since my debut, I know I have caused him to be more aggressive to get what he wants. And I know that even though he has not been at my side for the past 1,5 year... You still belittle me, you still don't like me and I understand.

Adams: You hear that??? He is a real nice guy!!

Simone: I am not buying it

Senor Vinnie: I want to make things right Senorita Simone, I want to show you that I am just like each and everyone out there. Well maybe better looking and sure as hell a better wrestler than most people, but that's not the situation right here. No, I want to make things right. So I have heard that you like chocolate and music.

Simone: Jason??? What did you tell this guy

Adams: I promised not to tell... err whoops.

Simone: JASON!!!!!

With that we see a stage hand walk towards the announce table with a large box of chocolates from the brand Merci. Along with a gift wrapped in gift paper as he hands it over towards her. She looks into the box of chocolate and smiles before turning her attention to the gift, opening the gift wrapping as we see a CD of Senor Vinnie doing covers of Elvis, The Beatles and the Stones.... The CD is entitled Lo Siento (I am sorry) What causes her to blush due to the camera's fully on her as well as it's a really nice gesture from Vinnie.

Simone: Oh I guess he did his best, I will give him a chance to show that he has changed.

This causes Vinnie to smile as he waves to the camera.

The scene opens backstage moments before the Blast from the Past Semi-Final match between Mark Cross and Ruby Steele and Carrison Reed and Roxi Johnson where we see the Australian Bombshell Krystal Wolfe watching the action on the monitor, she is clearly unhappy that her partner from her brief time in the tournament has a chance to go through with someone she hates.

Krystal: Fucking bullshit! That should be me in the semi-finals!

Krystal grumbles under her breath before shaking her head.

Krystal: At least then I'd have a good idea of what I'm doing at Blaze of Glory, but since I was eliminated, I don't have a fucking clue!

Krystal adds before she walks off apparently unable to watch the match.

Krystal: At least there's always next year! If there's a next year!

Krystal adds as the scene fades.

Simone: Welcome back to Climax Control, coming up next is our first Blast from the Past Semi-Final Match as the reigning SCW Roulette Champion Cassian Reed teams with Roxi Johnson to take on "The Dragon" Mark Cross and the outrageous one Ruby Steele!

Adams: Ruby was originally teamed with Daniel Morgan, but Dan had to pull out and Mark, who was teamed with Krystal Wolfe before being eliminated by Amber Ryan and Despayre, was given a second chance, it's safe to say that he's made the most of it but knowing how much Krystal hates Cassian as well as Ruby it's a safe bet that she hates this match!

Simone: Regardless of Krystal's thoughts on this match, it should be a fantastic one! Let's take it to Justin!

Justin: The following contest is a Semi-Final Blast from the Past Tournament Match scheduled for one fall!

Bad Motherfucker by Machine Gun Kelly and Kid Rock hits the speakers and the crowd turn their attention to the entrance ramp as Cassian comes out first with the Roulette Title slung over his shoulder, he is soon joined by Roxi Johnson as the duo are ready for battle.

Justin: Introducing team number one, Team Hero's Roxi Johnson and the SCW Roulette Champion Cassian Reed!

Cassian holds the title high above his head as he is announced whilst Roxi goes on ahead, it's obvious that Cassian is using this as an excuse to check out Roxi's rear-end but quickly moves to catch up once Roxi catches him, the duo enter the ring where Cassian holds up the title again.

Simone: Say what you will about Cassian, but he has been the workhorse of the team, getting the win over Slappy McGoo in the first round and Senor Vinnie in the second!

Adams: That's not to say that Roxi has had an easy ride either, her opponent in round one was her wife and Team Hero partner Keira Fisher whilst in round two she defeated two time World Bombshell Champion Alicia Lukas in a hard hitting contest!

Justin: And their opponents!

I Wanna Dance with Somebody by Whitney Houston begins to blast across the speakers and as it does, we are able to see Ruby Steele emerging from the curtain with Mark Cross in tow.

Justin: From London, England, the team off "The Dragon" Mark Cross and Ruby Steele!

She is clad in a sparkling ruby glow in the dark jacket. The jacket shines brightly, and she excitedly sprints to the ring slapping the hands of the roaring fans. She does some cartwheels before finishing up with one massive backflip. She giggles before she slowly slides into the ring. She nips up to her feet and blows kisses to the crowd before she bounces about waiting for the match to begin, Mark joins her in the ring as they wait for the match to begin.

Simone: Second chances don't happen often, let alone third, but this is technically Mark's third chance at winning the tournament after his team with Krystal Wolfe was eliminated in round one by Amber Ryan and Despayre!

Adams: And as previously stated, Ruby had London Underground's Daniel Morgan as a partner at first before Dan had to pull out, under that team they eliminated Lincoln Daniels and Bella Madison after Dan pinned Lincoln and in the Quarter Finals, they defeated Lachlan Kaine and Mikah after Mark rolled up Lachlan, it's a tale of two teams where the men did the work to get them this far really!

Once Jacob goes over the rules with both teams, they are told to pick who starts the match, after some brief discussion Mark and Cassian start the match and Jacob calls for the bell.

Simone: We are starting with the current Blast from the Past and Roulette Champion it seems!

Adams: This should be good!

DING DING DING!

Once the bell rings Cassian and Mark lock up in the middle of the ring before Mark overpowers Cassian by powering him into a neutral corner and laying into him with some heavy blows to Cassian's midsection and driving his shoulder into his mid-section before Powerbombing him into the matt, Ruby claps in appreciation whilst Roxi looks on in concern and Mark quickly goes into the first cover of the match and Jacob gets into the position.

ONE!

TWO!

And Cassian kicks out!

Simone: Cassian just took a pounding from the larger and more powerful Mark!

Adams: And whilst she has made her feelings on this match known multiple times, Krystal must be enjoying this!

Mark shakes his head after Jacob confirms that it was just a two count before picking up Cassian only for Cassian to hit him with a Jawbreaker that sends Mark stumbling back into the ring ropes, Cassian is quick on the attack as he delivers some stiff forearms to Mark's face before whipping him off the ropes and Mark goes for a clothesline on the rebound only for Cassian to duck under it and hit a Tiger Suplex! Cassian holds on for the pin and Jacob gets into position again.

ONE!

TWO!

And Mark kicks out! Cassian doesn't let up though as he grabs Mark's legs and locks in a Cloverleaf.

Simone: Mark is in trouble here, that Cloverleaf is one of Cassian's trademark moves.

Adams: He is bigger and stronger than Cassian though, so I doubt he'll be able to keep it locked in for long!

Mark and Cassian's respective partners cheer them on from the ring apron but for different reasons as Roxi is cheering Cassian on and trying to get him to keep it locked in tight and Ruby is trying to get him to either tag her in and force Cassian to tag in Roxi or at the very least go for the Rope Break, in the end though, Mark opts for the rope break and Jacob forces Cassian to break it up but Cassian refuses, this backfires on the Roulette Champion as Mark kicks Cassian away causing him to do a backflip.

Simone: Well, that's one way for Mark to force the break!

Adams: But Cassian is going for the Buckshot Lariat!

Indeed, Cassian has rolled out onto the apron and is waiting for Mark to get back to his feet so he can try for his finisher, when Mark does get back to his feet Cassian goes for the Buckshot Lariat but Mark ducks under the Lariat part of the move and sends Cassian flying with a Belly to Belly Suplex! However, the long match has taken its toll on both men and their partners are ready to be tagged in and start the women's part of the match.

Simone: Somebody check Cassian's air miles after that Suplex from Mark!

Adams: Let's be honest, it's probably the most anyone has flown since the pandemic hit!

Cassian is the closest to his corner and his making some headway towards getting the tag to Roxi first, but Mark manages to get a leaping tag to Ruby at the same time as Cassian's tag to Roxi meaning that both women can go straight on the offensive as Ruby and Roxi start exchanging blows in the middle of the ring, after a few minutes Roxi ducks under a wild right hand and hits Ruby with a dropkick to the face forcing Ruby to roll out of the ring.

Simone: Roxi's experience edge over Ruby just shone through in that exchange!

Adams: Ruby might be undefeated but she's still a rookie, most of the roster has an experience edge over her!

This ends up backfiring on the English rookie as Roxi charges the ropes and hits Ruby with a Suicide Dive to the outside! Jacob's ten count is restarted but it doesn't last long as Roxi rolls Ruby back into the ring and follows her in before going for the pin.

ONE!

TWO!

And Ruby gets the shoulder up! Roxi rolls out onto the apron and waits for Ruby to get back to her feet before going for a Springboard Hurricanrana on Ruby but Ruby ducks out of the way and whilst Roxi lands on her feet Ruby uses this to hit Roxi with a Snap Suplex followed by a Lionsault which Ruby follows up with a pin of her own!

ONE!

TWO!

And Roxi kicks out!

Simone: The action has been fast and furious since the women took over this match!

Adams: And Ruby and Roxi are just getting started!

Ruby pounds the matt in frustration but regains her composure before heading up to the top rope and waiting for Roxi to get back to her feet, when Roxi gets back to her feet Ruby goes for the Meteora but Roxi catches her and reverses it into a Powerbomb! Roxi then executes a sunset flip for another pin attempt!

ONE!

TWO!

And Ruby powers out in the nick of time! Roxi shakes her head before calling for her finisher.

Simone: Roxi is going for the Ray of Hope!

Adams: That move has put many Bombshells away and could Ruby be another victim?

Roxi goes for the move but Ruby ducks under it and hits the Ruby Tuesday!

Simone: Ruby Tuesday! Ruby hits it!

Adams: If you just heard an Australian woman screaming right now, that's probably Krystal screaming in frustration! Either way, stick a fork in Roxi she's done!

Ruby goes for the pin!

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

DING DING DING!

Justin: HERE ARE YOUR WINNERS, RUBY STEELE AND MARK CROSS!

Simone: We have our first finalists for the 2021 edition of Blast from the Past, reigning champion Mark Cross and Ruby Steele advance to meet either Mac Bane and Myra Rivers or Despayre and Amber Ryan!

Adams: And since Amber and Despy where Mark's first round opponents, that would be one heck of a bookend!

Mark and Ruby celebrate their win whilst Cassian shakes his head and leaves Roxi in the ring before heading to the back.

The camera cuts to the back as Pussy Willow is standing next to Mr. Chalmers who has Kiara standing right beside him. Pussy is looking around as he slightly makes her look at him.

Mr. Chalmers: My client will be here. She just doesn't want to talk at the moment.

Pussy looks at him with a cautious look on her face.

Pussy: What are your thoughts about Jessie's challenge to Char?

Mr. Chalmers as a smirk on his face.

Mr. Chalmers: If Ms. Salco wants to act like a tough bitch then my client will be more than happy to oblige her. I just hope she knows what she's getting herself into at Blaze of Glory if it happens.

Pussy looks at him trying to read his face.

Pussy: Jessie has warned Char not to get involved tonight in her title match. How do you think Char is going to respond?

Mr. Chalmers continues to smirk while looking at his other client before turning his eyes right back towards Pussy.

Mr. Chalmers: Ms. Salco can rest assured my client won't get physically involved during the match but she will get a taste of whats to come.

After saying the last bit, he and Kiara walks off leaving Pussy with a confused look on her face.

Pussy: What the hell does that mean?

Pussy scratches her head as the cameras cut away.

The cameras cut to the back as Lincoln Daniels is standing inside his dressing room.

Lincoln: Tonight, I face a coward. You know, I had a lot of respect for Austin James Mercer. That has gone out the window. The guy needs a shot of reality and that is who I am.

Lincoln rubs his chin.

Lincoln: Bill Barnhart, I hope you are watching the monitors closely. Because what I do to Austin pales in comparison to what I got planned for you come Blaze of Glory. It's going to be an incredible thing when I take out a coward and fat bastard in the same month.

Lincoln laughs.

Lincoln: Austin James Mercer, I will hit you hard. Bill Barnhart, I will send your ass home. This is my time to shine and damn it. I'm going to shine brighter than both of you. Let the Impressiveness continue. Mr. Incredible is out.

Lincoln walks out of the shot as the camera cuts away.

The SCW fans are over excited as they are waiting to see what happens next. It isn't long before the loud before we can hear the loud strumming of guitars going off. It is at this moment that two silhouettes appear on the tron. It's that of a female and a male. One is drumming and the other is strumming away on a guitar. The strumming gets even more intense as she begins to sing.

Simone: What is going on?!

Adams: I have no clue but this is something new!

Voice: In a cold winter morning in the time before the light!

They continue to strum away as more music is played louder than before as the voice sings even louder.

Voice: Fighting hard, fighting on for KATE STEELE!!!!!

Moments later we are able to see two figures wearing light up jackets emerge onto the stage in the darkness. They have their backs turned and the words Ignorant appear on the back one, and Discord on the other. One of them is wearing a microphone as they begin speaking into it.

Kate: And introducing to the ring. The most awesome Emo, punk, rock band to ever grace the wrestling world. Sexy Teddy Todd Warren, Kate Steele-Warren. Ladies and gentlemen we are IGNORANT DISCORDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

The lights turn back on and as they do we are able to see Todd Warren with drum sticks in his hands. He slaps them together before he launches them into the audience. Kate begins moshing out on the stage as she jams out to her playing a prerecorded riff she jumps high at the end of it as a set of Pyro explodes. She catches up with Todd and the two of them sprint down to the ring. They both slide into the ring. Kate and Todd take off their Iggy Dis shirts and throw them into the audience as the crowd chants loudly.

Simone: It has been months since we have seen them but Teddy and Kate are right here at Climax Control!

Adams: What an entrance!!!!

The fans roar with excitement as Kate smiles as Teddy nods his head in return. He can't help but smirk as he screams out loudly.

Todd: From the sounds of everything it sounds like you really missed us.

Kate smiles as she showcases her fiery red hair. She flicks it passionately as she nods her head.

Kate: Of course they missed us, but most importantly I would say they missed you a lot! Who wouldn't miss you?! After all you are my Sexy Teddy bear!!!

The crowd chuckles in return as Kate walks over to her husband and hugs him tightly.

Todd: Now I know what all of you are thinking. What are the Warrens doing in the ring right now?! I know we really haven't been involved in anything since High Stakes of last year. It was at that time that my wife lost to Evie Jordan, and I lost to J2H. To be honest those events didn't really go in the way that we wanted but to be honest we were dealing with depression as a family as there were things happening behind the scenes.

Kate: My husband and I were trying for a child. I know we love to stand in front of a camera. Be that Teddy and Diamond that you adore but Kath-Lyn Warren and Todd Warren were trying, and it never went the way we wanted it to go. After High Stakes we came out to the ring and stated we were going to step away for a while to focus on family life.

Todd: If that wasn't enough outside of this company I know my sister Dawn was struggling in PWS. The Warren family just wasn't where it needed to be. However I can say I have very good news.

Kate smiles warmly.

Kate: Great news! The truth is WE ARE PREGNANT!!!

The fans roar excited as Teddy smiles.

Todd: I know what you are thinking... Todd delivered the goods but to be honest as great as that sounds. My sister in law Cindy volunteered to be a surrogate mother. Kate's egg and my juice!!! Well the job got done and I can safely say Cindy is four months pregnant which means that WE WILL BE PARENTS!!!!

Kate smiles in return nodding her head with a grin.

Kate: It's honestly a dream come true, and I know Todd is ready and willing to be a father. It has been his dream for God knows how long. So our family of three with our beautiful adopted daughter Juliet will become a family of FOUR. It's amazing and we were happy. I will admit that seeing people talk about me like Roxi saying she couldn't wait to fight me... I am really honoured. I haven't even thought of being in an SCW ring for a while. I am enjoying being a teacher at Jet City South, and getting ready to tour the world as Diamond when the Gem Stones can do concerts again. However something happened this week.

Todd smiles as he nods his head in agreement.

Todd: We got a call from management about potentially competing at Blaze of Glory. I thought it came out of the blue considering we really haven't competed in SCW in four months but they offered us something we had to think about. Want to tell them baby?!

Kate: Well we got a call stating that they needed somebody to challenge for the SCW Mixed Tag Team Champions. Now I have only been that of a solo act. It has been that way from the beginning. Always have been, and always will be. This wasn't the first time SCW really pushed the issue either. I know we have a match against London Underground and to be honest we no showed it. It was a match we didn't want as we had other things in mind. However SCW called us. There's only four teams in the division, and I know nobody wants to see the same matches OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

Todd: That could get boring very quickly and after consideration we have decided to finally give all of you what you want. The Warrens will team up and at Blaze of Glory we will step in the ring with THE BLACK SHEEP!

Kate smirks.

Kate: It seems weird considering we are all Jet City South but that is what makes this special. Ignorant Discord finally comes to SCW as a unit and in our return match we will do the unthinkable. We will beat Mikah and Coby, and we will bring the titles home.

Todd: We are the Warren family. We are Ignorant Discord and after Blaze of Glory we will be champions!

The two kiss in the middle of the ring as the fans cheer them loudly.

Dawn Barnes enters the ring, stepping through the ropes. She walks across the ring to stand in the far corner, ready to officiate this upcoming contest.

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

"Liar Liar" starts to play as soon as the chorus hits Lucy jumps out from the stage and tosses her cloak off. Lucy looks around and starts to swiftly moves down the ramp. Lucy jumps onto the stairs and climbs over the turnbuckle. She flips herself in and goes to the center. She screams loudly and gets ready to fight.

Justin: From Moscow, Russia! She is "The Angelic Assassin" - Lucy Seraphina!

Lucy raises a fist to the crowd, greeted by cheers with scattered boos as reception.

Simone: Lucy Seraphina has been on a roll, ever since she returned to the SCW Bombshells after a too-lengthy absence.

Adams: You know when she signed back on, every champion in the division sat up and took notice!

Justin: And her opponent...!

The lights go out, a loud sound like a giant heartbeat sounds every second, the lights flash around the arena, then a red spotlight hits the entrance way as Halestorms's Sick I individual hits. The light hits Maki with her back to the audience. She is on her hands and knees, she slowly crawls her way to the ring.

Justin: from Brighton, England - Maki!

She slowly crawls to the ring, with her hair down to her shoulders, her white face paint, with scribbles on her body of 'Help' She crawls to the ring and slides under the bottom rope. She sits in the ring with her head bent back, laughing maniacally, and then flips herself to her feet. Her tongue is sticking out as she whispers Korean to herself.

Adams: This bird still gives me the creeps, even after all this time! She ranks right up there with Brother Grimm!

Simone: Now there would be a team that would have terrorized the mixed tag team division! Maki has that effect on a lot of people. Nobody knows what to expect from her and THAT is the scariest thing about her.

Dawn sends both women back to their respective corners. But the moment Lucy does so and turns around to ready herself, she is greeted by a racing Maki who jumps and strikes before the opening bell with a high knee strike!

Adams: Oh oh! Maki's come out to play!

Simone: This is Maki and that woman is definitely NOT playing!

Lucy goes down like she was shot and Dawn calls for the bell!

DING DING DING!

Maki is all over Lucy from the opening bell, delivering repeated stomps down into Seraphina's body as she tries desperately to shield herself from the onslaught! Dawn is trying to break it up and get Maki to back up but the ghostly goddess of SCW turns and screeches like a banshee at the official, making Dawn jump back. Lucy uses this brief break to scoot back toward the ropes but Maki turns and is right on her again, this time jamming a boot across her throat, choking her out so forcefully that it has Lucy bent backwards halfway out of the ring! Dawn issues her count against her...!

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

FOUR!...

Maki breaks just long enough to stop the count, and then she grabs Lucy by the hair and drags her back inside of the ring and drapes her throat-first across the middle rope with her knee buried into the back of her neck, choking her again with all of her weight and prompting another count from Dawn...!

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

FOUR!

And Maki safely breaks the count again!

Adams: Maki is all over Lucy!

Simone: I spoke of the Bombshells sitting up and taking notice, and it is obvious Maki did just that!

Maki drags Lucy up in the corner with two handfuls of hair and SCREAMS in her face, when from out of nowhere, Lucy slugs her with a right hand to the face!

Simone: What a shot!

Adams: That scream woke Lucy right up!

Lucy suddenly spins Maki around and pins HER in the corner and she begins delivering boot after boot into Maki's body, absolutely pulverizing her! Lucy then climbs the corner and stands on the middle turnbuckle, pinning her in as she unleashes a number of fists to the skull with the SCW Universe counting along...!

Crowd: ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE! SIX! SEVEN!...!

But Maki slips out and drops to her backside in the corner, but Lucy doesn't allow her to escape as she uses her perch to kick up and deliver two swinging knees right into Maki's sternum! Lucy does not even attempt to go for the cover as she pulls Maki up to her feet by the hair and uses her hair as a handle, throwing Maki the length of the ring in a tailspin!

Adams: I said that scream woke Lucy up but I think it right pissed her off even more!

Maki lands across the ring and immediately rolls to the outside of the ring, breaking her opponent's momentum from being built up any further. Lucy does not yield to this tactic, however, and she brushes past a protesting referee and climbs through the ropes and onto the apron. Lucy goes for a wild kick to her opposition, but Maki ducks! Lucy turns around and Maki sweeps her leg out from under her, causing Lucy to fall onto the hardest part of the ring!

Simone: Oh good god! A fall there always has potential for disaster!

Maki grabs Lucy into a front face lock and pulls her halfway off of the apron, horizontal to the floor...

Adams: Speaking of disaster...!

And Maki suddenly brings her down to the floor with a hanging-spinning neck breaker!

Simone: No! God she could have broken Lucy's neck!

Adams: Like Maki cares right now!

Lucy lies in a crumpled heap, motionless on the floor, as Maki sits on the ringside floor with her legs curled up against her; rocking back and forth with her hair in her fingers.

Adams: She's not ... DOING anything! She's just sitting there!

Simone: And if she's not careful, she's going to be the reason we have a double count out!

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!...

Maki smiles as she makes a ghoulish face, but it's as if she hears the broadcaster and she slowly crawls to her knees as Dawn Barnes continues her count from the inside of the ring...

FOUR!

FIVE!

SIX!

SEVEN!...

Maki drags Lucy up and rolls her back inside of the ring, then slithers in like a snake, beneath the bottom rope, breaking the count. She crawls on top of Lucy from the feet up until she straddles her upper body in a creeeepy cover!

ONE!

TWO!

TH-Lucy gets her shoulder up!

Adams: There's still life in Lucy Seraphina!

The crowd cheers Lucy's effort as a disgusted Maki stares down at her, then sllllowly up at Dawn who holds up two fingers.

Simone: Well don't blame the referee! You're the one that wasted all of that time on the outside!

Maki crawls off of her opponent and watches like a fascinated hunter as Lucy rolls over to her hands and knees very slowly, trying to get some fight back in her body. Maki then jumps up and comes off of the ropes with a sliding knee strike, sending Lucy tumbling over! Maki scrambles madly for another cover, this time hooking the inside leg!

ONE!

TWO!

THR-KICK OUT by Lucy!

Adams: How does Lucy keep fighting!?

Simone: It is absolutely unreal!

Maki screams and tears away at her hair, then she wraps both hands around Lucy's throat and chokes her, violently thrashing her from side to side! Dawn counts...

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

FOUR!...

Maki jumps up and gets RIGHT in Dawn's face, backing the poor rookie referee into a near corner!

Adams: That is an SCW official! Don't do anything you might regret!

Simone: I don't think Maki regrets anything that she does!

Maki then turns around - and eats a side kick right to the face courtesy of Lucy!

Adams: Where the hell did THAT come from!?

Lucy collapses as Maki goes down like she was SHOT! Both women are down and seemingly out as Dawn checks on their condition! She then begins her count out against BOTH of them!

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

FOUR!...

Both begin to stir!

FIVE!

SIX!...

Lucy rolls over to her hands and knees as Maki grabs the ropes to start to drag herself back up!

SEVEN!

EIGHT!...

Maki manages to get up first!...

NINE!...

With Lucy right after her! Maki comes up and swings for a fist but Lucy blocks it and delivers a shot of her own to Maki's head! Maki tries again but this time Lucy ducks and doubles her over with a boot to the midsection! Lucy goes for an Irish whip into the corner but Maki reverses it! Maki comes racing in but Lucy greets her with a big boot to the face! Lucy then sits on the top turnbuckle, grabs her in a front face lock and jumps off for a Tornado DDT! Lucy with the cover!

ONE!

TWO!

Maki kicks out with authority!

Simone: It is frightening the amount of fight that Maki always has in her!

Lucy drags her limp body up into suplex position, hooks one of her legs and brings her over with a cradle suplex! Lucy goes to the corner as Maki is ALREADY starting to rise! Lucy jumps onto the middle turnbuckle, then to the top and she leaps off, turning in midair to crash into a rising Maki for a high cross body!

ONE!

TWO!

And ANOTHER kick out by Maki!

Lucy pulls her up by the arm and attempts a short-arm clothesline, but Maki ducks under! Lucy turns around and Maki lashes out with an uppercut palm strike, staggering Seraphina back against the ropes! Maki then runs in and leaps at her, but Lucy catches her and turns around, POWERBOMBING her against the near corner! Maki staggers out, arching her back in pain! Lucy quickly grabs her into a front face lock and cradles he inside leg, falling back....!

Adams: Assassin's Night!

Lucy covers her and hooks one leg with her arm and the other with both legs!

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

DING DING DING!

Justin: Here is your winner -- Lucy Seraphina!

The crowd applauds as Dawn raises Lucy's arm into the air in victory! Lucy turns around - and Maki is back on her feet and she SPEWS a red mist into Lucy's eyes!

Simone: Good grief!

Lucy goes down, clawing at her eyes as they and her face are stained red! Maki stands over her with a sick, twisted smile and she slowly backs out of the ring and rolls through the ropes and to the outside as Dawn tends to a blinded Lucy Seraphina!

Adams: Why do I get the feeling things are not over between these two?

A dimly lit room appears on the screen as Violet Amelia is standing in the middle of the room. Her pink hair is tied up in pigtails as she has her head pointed to the ground.

Violet: Time. That's all we seem to lack these days. The time for my request for a rematch hasn't gained any traction. It's like no one gives a fuck about what I want in this company. Maybe it's because I'm not an ass kisser like Mikah. Could it be that I don't stroke anyone's ego like that c*nt Mercedes Vargas? Is it because my father is a bonafide legend in this business but no one gives him a chance?

Violet takes a quick breath while lifting her eyes up toward the camera. A dark, sinister like gaze is shown in her eyes as her face bares little emotion.

Violet: I'm done. I'm done waiting for my turn. I'm done waiting in line. Alicia Lukas, Jessie Salco and others seem to think they can just jump the fucking line but I have to wait. Well, I'm done waiting. I'm going to send shockwaves through this fucking division. You all think I am a joke but I'm the one who is going to be left laughing. Why? Because I'm going to raise hell. I'm going start taking what I want and that starts with beating the fuck out of Bea Barnhart. Then I will move up from her. Who knows where I'll stop but trust me. Gold will be around my waist before this year is over with. You wanted crazy. You wanted psycho. I just hope you fuckers can handle the monster you have made.

Violet leaves the room as the lights turn on too see a bloody Candy Overton left lying in the corner. The door slowly closes as the scene fades.

The scene cuts in on an exuberant Andrea Hernandez as she's inside of her locker room with a huge celebration atmosphere going on! In the background, there's a large cake and a bunch of desserts and drinks on a table. Everywhere you turn, there's a picture of Andrea Hernandez accomplishing something amazing. Of course, the woman herself is in an incredibly arrogant mood as she begins to speak.

Andrea: Welcome to every single one of you to the grand celebrations of all things Andrea! As you know, I recently celebrated my 27th birthday and so... you are all very fortunate that I have decided to bring this celebration to every single one of you, even though you do NOT deserve it! Today, I look back on my incredible career from its humble beginnings all the way up to now JUST to tell you all exactly how great I am and why someone like SELEANA would ALWAYS be jealous of me! Her little grudge with me comes down to one, simple fact: Seleana is upset with me because deep down inside, she knows I am better than she is! Pure, simple, FACT! So, let me give you the grand tour of the celebration of all things Andrea starting with... well... GCW...

Andrea scoffs to herself in arrogance as she walks over to a wall of pictures from that era of her career.

Andrea: Let's see... there's that time I beat Myra which by the way was GLORIOUS for me personally and still is today because I HATE the bitch... There's that time I won my first ever singles championship as the North American champion. There was that time I beat the hell out of an old rival of mine on their biggest show of the year, putting her out of her misery. There were all the title defenses I had... god, everything here was so damn good! But of course, this was just the foundation for being one of the best women's wrestlers in the world! So... moving on to... well... I gotta say it... my least favorite wrestling company of the three that I've had a significant tenure in...

Andrea narrows her eyes with annoyance as she walks a little further down the wall to her OCW highlights which are definitely significant.

Andrea: I won a couple of titles here and really made a big impact and everything but holy hell was it difficult to get anywhere here. This was a wrestling company stuck in the 90's, rampant sexism all over the place with much of their over the hill wrestlers refusing to grow or evolve in any way. And yet... I overcame that. I overcame sexism! I overcame the 'old boys club' and the idiots that I wrestled with in this company couldn't stand me because I came in and changed the game. Here's me beating this "hall of famer" to retain my OCW Craze title, here's me beating this other "hall of famer" to go to the semifinals of a tournament, it was great putting the eggs on their faces again and again. They never respected me though... sound familiar? Oh right... all of you in this catty locker room couldn't stand me because again, I came here to SCW and changed the game! So... here's where I go to the most important part of this celebration...

Andrea has a scoff as she walks across the room to the pictures of her highlights in Sin City Wrestling so far.

Andrea: Now THIS... is my favorite part: my win at High Stakes 2019 over Bella Madison, making Bobbie Dahl cry like a little bitch on social media, being part of an elimination chamber match, all those wins over she who must not be named... ESPECIALLY winning and defending the world title against her which I STILL take pride in but mark my words, I will TOP THIS because SHE does NOT deserve to be part of the best moment of my career! Once I top this, I will further forget about her existence in my life. Oh... and there's me recently defeating Roxi Johnson which was glorious as hell... and there are all my wins over Keira Fisher and... OH LOOK....

In particular, Andrea grabs a picture from the wall. She laughs as she reveals it's a picture of herself defeating Seleana Zdunich in a street fight a few months back.

Andrea: This has to be the best memory I have of you EVER! I mean...

Voice: Hey, I need to talk to you...

Andrea suddenly becomes angry at the sudden presence of the actress that portrayed "Selamea Zdunich" last week. She's bruised and stitched up, obviously still feeling the effects.

Andrea: Are you fucking hidding me right now?

Selamea: Last week, you went too damn far! It was just supposed to be the parody match! You weren't supposed to do everything else after that.

Andrea: Oops... my bad! I got carried away. But that's just wrestling for you. Look, I'll make it up to you, okay?

Andrea 'makes it up to her' by smacking her in the side of the head with the picture of the parking lot brawl.

Andrea: I'm finishing what I started last week!!!!

Andrea suddenly loses it as she grabs "Selamea" and drags her all the way to the table, dousing her head in a bowl of fruit punch

Andrea: YOU WANT TO INTERRUPT MY CELEBRATION OF ALL THINGS ANDREA, HUH?!?!?!

She drags her head out of the punch bowl and drags her to the large cake, stuffing her face in it.

Andrea: Well, why don't you do me a favor and send the message I am writing right now to the REAL Seleana, you knock off piece of shit!

Andrea grabs a trophy that had an action figure of herself at the top and she breaks it over the spine of "Selamea" before dumping all food and drink that she can find all over her. She pries her out of the cake and drags her to a garbage can, completely stuffing her in it.

Andrea: I'm DONE playing, Seleana! I am DONE with your little games! I'm done with your GIANT PUSSY SHIT!

Andrea wheels the garbage can to the door of the locker room opening it and pushing the garbage can.

Andrea: So why don't you just fight me like a real woman for once instead of blindsiding me with your bullshit!

Andrea gives a hard shove to the garbage can, sending the parody out for a ride until it crashes hard on a metal crate and falls over on its side.

Andrea: Consider this a message sent bitch...

Andrea goes back inside the locker room and slams the door shut, further showcasing that she's done playing around as the scene fades out.

We hear RAISE YOUR GLASS by Pink hit the speakers and Bill and Bea Barnhart walk out from the backstage area and stand on the landing with both holding a mic in their hand. The crowd rises up in a chorus of loud boos. Bill raises his mic to speak first.

Bill: I see Management has me scheduled to wrestle against Lincoln Daniels at Blaze of Glory IX. Seems they feel this is a way to prove which of us is the dominant wrestler in Sin City Wrestling. Now I already know we are going to hear Lincoln brag how he won a match we were both involved in at Climax Control 289. But before he runs his mouth to give you only half the story let me give you the real story. It was Climax Control 289 on January 10, 2021, and it was a Fatal Four Way Roulette Rules match. How Daniels won the match was by slamming Agostino Romano through a table. He didn't throw the other wrestlers in the match through the table. Lincoln Daniels didn't defeat me. He defeated Agostino Romano. Now at Blaze of Glory IX the world is going to see that I am, in fact, the dominant wrestler when I humiliate Lincoln Daniels when I easily defeat him.

Bill drops his arm to his side while Bea raises her mic to speak.

Bea: I don't have a match for Climax Control 295 but I hope I get a match soon as I want to stay active in the ring as a wrestler in addition to serving at Bill's Manager.

Bill: Lincoln I'll be watching your match against Austin James Mercer. Knowing how Mercer operates I expect to see him easily defeat you which will bring me extreme enjoyment.

Bill and Bea turn and start to walk into the backstage area and the crowd rises up in a loud boos until the two disappear behind the curtain.

Justin: Our next match is a Singles Rules match. First to make his way to the ring, from Valdosta, Georgia, at six feet two inches and two hundred forty-one pounds, please give a great welcome for MISTER INCREDIBLE LINCOLN DANIELS!!!

A video starts playing on the giant Tron screen as "Go Hard" blasts through the sound system. Blue and green lights start to float around the arena as Lincoln Daniels steps through the curtain with his wife Zania by his side. Lincoln takes one look at the audience before holding his arms out wide and the crowd gives you a great reaction. Pyros erupt behind them as they slowly make their way down the ramp toward the ring. The two get half way down the ramp when Lincoln takes off toward the ring leaving his wife's side. He slides into the ring then he runs to the far side of the ring to mount the turnbuckle while holding his hands out wide and the crowd again gives him a great reaction. Zania Daniels walks to the corner and she takes her place there as the Manager for Lincoln.

Adams You can't help but like a wrestler like Lincoln Daniels. He is popular and he is a great wrestler.

Simone: First item is that Daniels is up against one of the toughest wrestlers in Sin City Wrestling in Austin James Mercer. Second item is when he loses to Mercer he will be going into Blaze of Glory IX against Bill Barnhart. It is always hard to face off against Bill Barnhart and even more so when you are coming off a loss.

Justin: The next to make their way to the ring, from Manhattan, New York, at six feet six inches and two hundred sixty-five pounds, please give a great welcome for AUSTIN JAMES MERCER!!!

The lights in the arena go off and we are in deep darkness as "A conversation with death" by Khemmis kicks hits the speakers. As the music builds different lights flash around the arena. As the song builds into the refrain and the guitars kick in a spotlight forms on the stage with Austin standing in the middle. The crowd gives Mercer a great reception as he makes his way down to the ring. When he arrives at the ring he walks up the steps, then walks across the ring apron, then he steps through the ropes into the ring. Austin moves to the center of the ring where he poses for the crowd as the music shuts off.

Adams: Well, Belinda, for a wrestler who has won a lot of matches and also lost a lot of matches, I have to say that Mercer is over his head in his match having to face Daniels. With Lincoln Daniels having a match coming up against Bill Barnhart at Blaze of Glory IX he has the incentive to win and I predict he will get the win over Mercer.

Simone: I think we need to test your drinks to see if there are unusual substances in them causing you to hallucinate. Austin isn't going to lose to Lincoln and you need to get used to that concept.

Adams: Here's what we have in this match. Lincoln Daniels is six feet two inches and two hundred forty-one pounds. Austin James Mercer has a small height and weight advantage at six feet six inched and two hundred sixty-five pounds. Advantage goes to Daniels.

Simone: *sigh* I have to straighten you out again! Having a four inch advantage in height and twenty-five pounds of weight is not classified as a small height and weight advantage. Sure glad Management doesn't allow us to place bets with each other on the outcome of matches because if they did I would clean out your wallet with my bet on Austin James Mercer!

Referee Drew Patton walks over to Lincoln Daniels and checks him for foreign objects or prohibited substances. Finding Daniels clean he then looks over at Zania to warn her about interfering in the match and she protests the insinuation. Drew Patton then walks over to Austin James Mercer and checks him over. Finding him also clean of foreign objects or prohibited substances he informs both wrestlers to get into the action when the Timekeeper rings the bell.

DING DING DING!

Lincoln and Austin come out of their corners and meet in the center of the ring. Mercer is smack talking to Daniels and Lincoln just rolls his eyes over it. When Austin stops his smack talking he turns away and we see Lincoln charge him to take advantage of the distraction. Austin was anticipating this as he quickly turns around and executes an arm drag on Daniels. When Lincoln gets to his feet and charges Austin for a second time Mercer again executes an arm drag on Daniels. He then grabs the arm of Lincoln and he then sits on the mat with his feet jammed on the body of Daniels and he pushes with his legs while pulling on his arm. Lincoln groans from the pressure places on his shoulder and arm but when Referee Drew Patton asks him if he wants to submit he yells out NO and the match continues.

Simone: What were you saying about Lincoln Daniels having the advantage over Austin James Mercer in this match?

Adams: Sheesh! We're only a few minutes into the match! Will you please stop!

Simone: No!

Lincoln Daniels maneuvers his body around to where he is able to move his upper body off the match but Austin James Mercer still has a grip on his arms and his feet set against his body. Daniels maneuvers around until he is able to swing his legs and he manages to land a few kicks to the head of Mercer which causes Austin to release the hold he had on Lincoln. Daniels moves to a corner and he massages the arm Mercer had the hold applied to. Austin gets to his feet and the look on his face indicates he isn't happy that Lincoln escaped from the hold. As Mercer approaches Daniels in the corner Lincoln taunts him to come and get him in the corner. When Austin is a short distance from the corner he charges toward Lincoln with what appears to be an attempt at a shoulder block to his body. When Austin gets close to the corner Lincoln leaps up on the top corner ropes and this causes Mercer to smack into the corner ropes and padding. Immediately Daniels dives off the corner ropes grabbing Mercer around the body on the way down. When the tumbling stops it is Austin who is on his back with Lincoln rolling him up for the pin.

Adams: This is it!

ONE!

T...

Mercer powers out of the pin attempt breaking the count before the two could could be delivered. Austin rolls to the side and under the ropes to slide to the arena floor. Lincoln pounds his fists on the mat for missing the pinfall. Referee Drew Patton warns Lincoln Daniels to stay in the ring and to not hinder the process of Austin James Mercer getting back into the ring. After that warning Referee Patton starts the count on Mercer on the outside of the ring.

Simone: So much for your quick pinfall victory concept.

ONE!

Mercer takes advantage of being outside the ring while Daniels is required to stay inside the ring.

TWO!

Austin walks around the ring and when he turns the corner where Zania is located he warns her to not get involved in the match or there will be hell to pay. She waves off his warning with a smile on her face.

THREE!

Mercer gets to the next corner and climbs the ring steps then he steps onto the ring apron and leans on the ropes but doesn't yet make an attempt to return inside the ring.

FOUR!

Austin takes full advantage of the count knowing he has plenty of time to get back into the ring.

FIVE!

Satisfied that Referee Patton is going to keep Lincoln Daniels back we see Austin James Mercer step through the ropes where he then leans on the ropes waiting to see what Lincoln Daniels is going to do.

Adams: Both wrestlers obtained the advantage so far in this match. Not sure what to expect next.

Simone: What you need to expect is Austin James Mercer having his hand raised in victory.

Adams: In your dreams.

Simone: Yeah that is what I call sweet dreams.

Daniels walks up to Mercer and words are exchanged. Without warning Austin swings his arm and slaps Lincoln hard across the face. Daniels grabs the side of his face and massages where he was slapped. Lincoln then raises his index finger in the face of Austin and waves it left and right in a gesture of shame on you. Mercer slaps the hand of Daniels away and then he grabs him and hits a knee to the midsection of Lincoln. Austin quickly executes a DDT on Lincoln driving him hard into the mat. Mercer rolls Daniels onto his back and goes for the pin.

ONE!

TWO!

Lincoln Daniels gets out of the pin stopping the count at two. Both wrestlers get to their feet and they are in a standoff.

Simone: As the match progresses the pin counts get closer to a three count. Should be much longer for Austin to get the win. x

Adams: Closies only count in horseshoes and hand grenades but this is a wrestling match.

There is a sudden uproar in the crowd and when we look up at the entrance area we see Bill Barnhart standing on the landing. Bill quickly makes his way to the announcers table where he takes a seat between Jason Adams and Belinda Simone and he dons a headset.

Adams: What are you doing here?

Simone: Providing guest commentary of course!

Bill: I'm here to cheer on Austin James Mercer, a fellow Alpha wrestler, and to remind Lincoln Daniels that he's not an Alpha but he is at the back of the line. A sacrifice to the Alphas like myself and Mercer.

Austin and Lincoln stop the action to look over at Bill Barnhart doing commentary with Adams and Simone. Bill yells out to the two of them.

Bill: Take him out Austin! Show him that us Alpha wrestlers don't take crap from those at the bottom of the barrel. As for you, Lincoln, at Blaze of Glory IX you get to face me, another Alpha wrestler, and I promise you that I will win that match!

Lincoln and Austin get back into the action. Daniels grabs the arm of Mercer and whips him into the ropes. He goes for a clothesline but Austin ducks it and stops behind Lincoln. Mercer grabs Daniels around the body and hits him with a suplex. Austin gets up and waits for Lincoln to get to his feet. When he is on his feet Austin executes a Pendulum Backbreaker on Lincoln. Instead of going for the pin Mercer stands up then drags Daniels to his feet and executes a Double A Spinebuster. Austin dives on top of Lincoln Daniels for the pin.

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

DING DING DING!

Adams: Bill it figures you would get involved in this match and cause Lincoln Daniels to lose.

Bill: I didn't do anything but provide commentary on the match. Don't blame me for the incompetence of Daniels and the superior wrestling of Mercer.

Justin: Here is your winner of this match, by pinfall, AUSTIN JAMES MERCER!!!

Mercer quickly exits the ring and as he passes the announcers table he yells at Barnhart that he doesn't need his help to defeat any wrestler. Bill replies that he was only giving commentary on the match so he needs to back off of him. Austin heads off to return to the backstage area. Back in the ring Daniels is on his feet and he is slow to exit the ring. When he passes the announcers table he gets in a conversation with Barnhart demanding to know why he interfered in the match. Bill replies he didn't do anything but provide commentary on the match and that his loss to Mercer was his fault alone. Bill reminds Lincoln that they will meet at Blaze of Glory IX and that he will take a loss to him. Daniels turns and heads toward the backstage area with Zania by his side. After Lincoln is in the backstage area Bill stands up from the announcers table and he thanks Jason Adams and Belinda Simone for allowing him to join them doing commentary on the match.

Myra Rivers is standing backstage, holding her SCW Bombshells Internet Championship. She doesn't look unnerved at all, despite knowing the challenge that comes ahead of her. She has her cell phone out and she looks like she's looking through some stuff for a bit. But, once she realizes the cameras are on, she maintains her confidence and she begins to speak.

Myra: Today, I'm going to be doing things a little bit different. I've decided that I am going to open the floor to YOU, the people. You see, I decided that I was going to field some questions from the fans regarding... well... anything really because I wanted to make a little more of an effort to reach out to the audience as I go through this Blast from the Past tournament. So, the first question that I have here is...

"What do you think of Mac and Amber being across the ring from each other? Do you think that's going to create some tension in their relationship?"

Honestly? That's none of my business but considering they're not actually going to be throwing punches at each other, I don't see how this match is going to have any sort of effect on their relationship at all. Mac and I have been an incredible team throughout this tournament, as has Amber and Despayre and they're going to be the toughest competition that we've faced to date. Amber, at the end of the day, isn't Mac's problem. She's mine. She's one of the toughest women in this company and I can't take that away from her. You put us in the ring together ten times, we're going to win five times each, that's how razor thin the margin between Amber and I is.

Myra remains confident, having gotten that question out of the way.

Myra: "Do you consider Amber to be one of your biggest rivals in SCW?"

Oooh... that's a great question.

Aside from say, Kate Steele, I can't really say there's anyone else on the roster that I would consider a 'big rival' of mine here or that I've had a rivalry of any sort with, but Amber does come close. I know that part of her motivation for tonight will be to have some form of retribution for Into the Void when I defeated her, but I'm not factoring in that match as a motivation at all. We've both evolved and grown since then in our own ways and any time you face her, it's going to be a hard match to fight, it's as plain and simple as that. Of course, I want to win this entire tournament but if tonight's the end? Yeah... it's going to suck. I'm not going to lie about that. But what I am confidently going to say is that whether it's through Blast from the Past or not, I know what I am capable of in this company and I'm not going to let a setback stop me from where I ultimately want to go.

Next question...

Myra takes a pause as she scrolls to her next chosen question.

Myra: "There's been a little more heat on you this past week. Maki, Ruby, Amber and Despayre all had a little something to say about you. It wasn't overly harsh, but there definitely has been more criticism toward you for various reasons lately. How do you feel about that and how do you respond to that?"

Myra has a bit of a smirk before she answers the question because she's completely aware of the increased attention she's been getting... even if it's not all positive.

Myra: You know what they say: the higher up the ladder you go, the more people are going to criticize you. That's the nature of the business. I'm not going to dismiss the criticism and say that any of them were wrong in anything they said, but at the same time though? I've been doing this a long time. Thirteen years ago, I would handle criticism horribly. I'm not going to pull an Andrea here and take it all to heart to the point where it destroys me. I'm going to keep doing what I do to the best of my ability, I'm still going to express the purest convictions to my heart that are there, and I'm going to keep rising up the ladder in this company regardless of what anyone has to say. I'll keep doing my thing tonight. I know the nature of this business is to pick at scabs, even if it's over one loss, but that's something I'm used to. Amber can think what she wants about me... but if you recall, the last time she faced me... when her criticisms of me were far harsher by the way, I didn't let them get to me. I showed a resolve that I needed to have in order to win against her. I get it. This Blast from the Past has been an increased microscope for me... but I know I've handled the spotlight well and that's what I'll continue to do. Mac and I have faced some hard odds before, and these may be the toughest yet, but I am confident with every ounce of my ability and every ounce of my heart that tonight, we're going to find a way yet again!

I became part of this tournament to win, as did the other remaining competitors. For me personally? It'll be a tough litmus test... but I know that it's a test I can pass... one way or another...

Myra pockets her phone and remains determined and confident.

Myra: Still... thank you for the questions. They sure gave me a lot to think about.

Myra delivers a confident wink to the camera before she leaves the scene, not showing even a hint of nervousness before the scene fades out.

Backstage, Sam Marlowe is standing looking at the briefcase that is set in front of her as she tries to figure out how to open it. Reaching out, she presses both bolts but nothing happens. She taps at it, her fingers beating a tattoo on the top of it in frustration. She sighs and steps back to cross her arms and glare at the case.

Christian: Having a spot of trouble there, Red?

Onto the scene walks SCW Co-Owner and personal antagonist toward Samantha, Christian Underwood. He pauses and motions toward her. She straightens and uncrosses her arms to smile at him.

Christian: Oh, I'm sorry. It IS alright if I call you 'Red,' isn't it?

Sam's smile fades slightly but she nods.

Sam Marlowe: I guess...

Christian just smirks at 'Little Miss Sunshine,' then nods to the briefcase that she has yet been able to open.

Christian: You know, there's a very plausible reason why you haven't been able to open that yet to find out what you won. It has a combination lock. Right there.

He points at the combination lock by the latch on the briefcase, and smiles at her, shaking his head mockingly. He then raises his eyebrows and holds his hands out.

Christian: May I?

Picking up the case, she holds it out to Christian, her smile brightening again.

Sam Marlowe: Yes please. I have been very curious about what is in it and you know what curiosity does to cats...

Christian takes the briefcase and he begins to do the combination, speaking as he goes.

Christian: Before you see this, I just want you to know I had nothing to do with it. This was all Mark's idea and I only agreed because I thought it would be a sure win for Mercedes.

Sam Marlowe: I am sure that you would have preferred anyone but me to win this. But just knowing that there was something that I could earn with grabbing this briefcase, you could say that I was inspired to do my best.

Christian: Anyway...

He pops the briefcase open, and inside is a single piece of paper - an SCW contract. He takes it out, and passes it over to her hands.

Christian: Here. Thanks to that win, you will now challenge Royal Purple at Blaze of Glory IX for the Roulette Championship.

Sam Marlowe: A Roulette title shot?!? I can't wait! Thank you so much Christian, I won't let this shot get away from me and I won't let you and Mark Ward down.

Christian pats her on her shoulder.

Christian: And good luck, Red. I really, REALLY mean that.

He turns away and rolls his eyes before walking off-camera leaving Sam to read over the contract excitedly.

Simone: It's now time for the second of our Blast From The Past Semi-Finals!

Adams: And we have a special guest at ringside!

Simone: Why did you have to say anything? I wasn't going to.

World Bombshell Champion, Christina Rose Zdunich is seated in a chair just near the commentary table. The Bombshell championship strapped around her waist and a bouquet of roses in her lap!

Justin: Ladies and Gentlemen the following contest is a semi-finals matchup for the Blast From The Past tournament!

The crowd lets out a huge pop!

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

Justin: Introducing first! Accompanied to the ring by Angel and Synn! From Vancouver, British Columbia, weighing 168 pounds -- Despayre!

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

Simone: Never has there been anyone more beloved by the fans and even SCW stars alike than Despayre. How can you not love him?!

Synn climbs up onto the ring apron and holds the ropes open for Despayre to carefully climb through, then the father figure steps inside himself. Despayre holds Angel up high over his head until Synn escorts him over to his respective corner for the start of the match.

Justin: And his tag team partner...

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

Most cheer in anticipation, but there are few who still jeer due to affiliations or just the fickle nature of a wrestling crowd on any given night. Atop the ramp, the lithe silhouette of the Distorted Angel seems to have materialised, soaking up the crowds reaction and energy. Fans reach out for acknowledgement and wave signs in the same way that others lean out over the rail as much as they dare to yell expletives and empty threats- some get a perceptive nod, a sly wink or perhaps even a kiss blown in sarcasm towards the most derisive.

Justin: Making her way to the ring! From Atlantic City, New Jersey! Weighing in at 132 pounds! AMBER RYAN!!!

Fluidly, Amber circles the ring- beelining for a camera person before trying to mess with them or talking some shit down into the camera lens.

Adams: It's amazing the effect Despayre has on even the most intimidating people!

Simone: Indeed! He's managed to even capture the affections of Amber Ryan and show that even she always as dark and intimidating as she normally is.

Slipping under the rope, while Amber normally doesn't call for fanfare nor adulation, instead just making her way to the closest turnbuckle so that she might leisurely perch herself on the top, she instead joins Despayre in their corner as they await their opponents and biggest obstacle standing between them and the finals. Amber caught sight of Christina sitting at ringside, but has chosen to not pay her any mind at the moment, refusing to be tricked into her little game.

Justin: And their opponents!

The opening chords of "Badass" by Saliva begin to echo throughout the arena as Mac Bane makes his way out onto the stage. The crowd gives him a mixed reaction, mostly cheers but a few jeers as well. He nods his head along with the music.

Justin: Introducing first! From Port Arthur, Texas! Weighing in ar 280 pounds! MAC BANE!!!

The chorus picks up as the volume increases and the pyro flares red to either side of the stage. Bane begins his walk towards the ring. Fans reaching out and he exchanges a few fist bumps here and there but the ring is his focus. That's where he conducts his business.

Simone: What an interesting situation Amber and Mac find themselves in on opposite sides of the ring.

Adams: Everyone loves when situations like these happen. It's just begging for an implosion.

Simone: Yes, well in this case, they don't need to worry about actually facing the other.

Mac moves to the ring steps and makes his way up on the apron. Wiping his feet there, he then ducks between the top and middle rope. He stands in the center of the ring, bathed in the red light, he extends his arms straight in the air, momentarily he crosses them in an "X" before he lets fly the "Hook'em" sign with each hand. His music has faded, his duster has been removed along with his cowboy hat. He now paces like a caged animal, while he awaits his tag team partner.

Justin: And his partner!

Come to Life" by Alter Bridge hits the speakers and the crowd lets out a strong reaction of support as Myra Rivers appears on the stage, already looking to take care of business.

Justin: Making her way to the ring! From Miami, Florida! Weighing in at 130 pounds! She is the SCW Bombshell Internet Champion...MYRA RIVERS!!

She heads down the ramp momentarily pausing at the bottom to give a quick smile at anyone nearby that is letting her know that they are behind her. Once the chorus starts, she gets inside of the ring and walks up to the opposite corner, adjacent to the ring announcer. She leans against the corner, focused and determined for her upcoming match, reveling in the continued showering of love the crowd is raining upon her.

Simone: Myra now locking eyes with Christina, almost warning her to not get involved.

Adams: Why would Christina get involved?!

Simone: You really have to ask?

It is decided quickly that Despayre and Mac will start the match as Amber and Myra step through the ropes. Jasmine St. John looks around, making sure everyone is ready before she calls for the bell!

DING DING DING!

Simone: It's showtime!

Adams: Really?! I don't see Drake Green anywhere!!

Despayre and Mac move away from their respective corners after the bell rings with Despayre surprisingly, and somewhat amusingly, mimicking Mac's brooding and intimidating demeanor. Amber and even Myra can't help but chuckle, both completely ignoring Christina's presence at rinside, as Mac and Despayre circle around the ring until Mac finally approaches Despayre, towering over him! Despayre puts his hands on his hips, standing up to his much larger opponent and Mac can't help but as he turns and looks past Despayre right at Amber. This is perhaps his first, and hopefully last, mistake against Despayre.

Simone: Uh oh. Bad move!

Adams: He's about to find out why!

With absolutely no warning, Despayre rears his leg back and kicks Mac hard in the shin! Mac nearly doubles forward as he hops on his other leg, letting out a boisterous and pained howl, and Despayre quickly gets to work in trying to get the upper hand further against his opponent! He slides down just as Mac plants his foot back on the mat and trips his leg out from underneath him, causing Mac to drop to his knees!

Simone: If there is one thing Despayre is good at, it's quickly getting a larger opponent off his feet!

Adams: Somewhere Jake Sullivan is watching this and feeling Mac's pain after that kick to the shin...

Despayre then jumps onto Mac's back, wrapping himself around him and locking in a sleeper hold of which Mac is now fighting to break out of! Despayre holds on for dear life as Mac pushes himself back to his feet, holding on to the ropes, and tries to get Despayre off of him, but nothing seems to work. He's favoring the leg Despayre kicked, still trying to bring one hundred percent feeling back to it and he has to think quickly as the sleeper hold is starting to get the best of him!

Simone: Mac could be in seriously trouble here! Despayre has a way of holding on in situations like this!

Mac begins to sway back and forth as he tries to get Despayre off of him, but Despayre is still holding strong! Mac then reaches his hands up and finally manages to grab Despayre, lurch forward and flip him off of him! Despayre crash lands hard against the mat and with a quick shake of his head, Mac gets back to work! He limps over to Despayre, reaches down and pulls him up to his feet by his hair.

Adams: That had to hurt. As tough as Despayre is, situations like that sometimes happen!

Simone: Indeed but he always does well at fighting through it.

Mac keeps a hold of Despayre but keeps him at arm's length as Despayre swings and kicks at him, trying to get the upper hand again! Eventually Mac takes Despayre and sends him flying into the corner turnbuckle then charges at him and hits him with a strong forearm and elbow shot as he works on just manhandling Despayre as best he can. Despayre slouches down and when Mac tries to pick him back up, he crawls through Mac's legs a bit slower than normal as he shakes off the effects of Mac's offensive strikes.

Simone: Case in point. Mac had used as much power and energy as he can, but Despayre is moving as fast as he can.

Adams: Which is still fast even though it's slower than normal!

Despayre tries to crawl towards Amber but Mac catches his leg and holds him back! Despayre hops on one foot and reaches out towards Amber trying to make the tag and she reaches in the ring towards him but they aren't close enough! Mac starts to drag Despayre away when Despayre spins around on his one foot then hops, nailing Mac with an Enziguri that finally causes the big man to drop his foot! Despayre then spins and launches himself across the ring, making the tag!

Simone: And there's our first tag of the match!

Adams: And Christina's neck appears to be made of rubber! Look at it stretch!

Once Amber and Myra are in the ring, Christina is now much more interested in the match as she sits up higher, paying close attention to both women, but more importantly, Amber! Amber and Myra charge at one another as Mac rolls under the bottom rope and out of the ring. Amber and Myra tie up in the center of the ring trying to overpower the other! Myra pushes Amber, but Amber pushes back even harder, getting her against the ropes, just in front of Christina!

Adams: A little preview of what is to come?

Simone: Oh I think Amber has much more in store for Christina...

Once backed against the ropes, Myra holds her hands up and Jasmine warns Amber to back off. She does, but only for a moment and when she swings at Myra, Myra ducks, charging forward. Amber momentarily locks eyes with Christina, but it's a fleeting moment as she spins and returns her attention back to Myra!

Simone: Whatever Christina is doing out here, her presence clearly isn't having the effect you would think!

Adams: Amber and Myra are smarter than that!

Myra comes charging towards her having rebounded off the opposite set of ropes! Amber leans forward and Myra leapfrogs over the top of her and when Amber stands back up and spins around Myra grabs a hold and takes her down in a neckbreaker before going for the cover!

ONE!

TWO!

Simone: Amber says no!

Amber kicks out!

Christina is clapping at the excitement from the match thus far but everyone does their best to ignore her. Myra attempts to pull Amber back to her feet, but Amber hits her with a stiff right fist, then kips up to her feet as Myra stumbles back!

Adams: Amber says POW! Right to the kisser!

Myra holds her jaw, and Amber begins an onslaught of knee strikes and kicks, trying to bring Myra down to her knees! Myra fights through it, blocking what she can and Amber takes her and whips her across the ring! Myra hits the corner turnbuckle just by Mac and he takes the opportunity to quickly make the tag as his lady love standing across the ring just shakes her head as she stares at him! But she darts out of the way as Despayre dashes through the ropes like lightning and flies towards Mac!

Simone: All is fair in love and war. Amber wasn't finished with Myra, but Mac is fighting just as hard as Amber to advance to the finals.

Both Mac and Despayre have had ample time to recover from their earlier meeting in the ring and Despayre has to be much quicker on his feet this time! Mac attempts a big boot but Despayre ducks, spins around and then kicks Mac's legs out from underneath him! Mac crashes backfirst against the mat and Despayre leaps at the ropes, rebounding off of them with a springboard moonsault, but he stands right back up to continue!

Adams: And again Despayre takes the big man off his feet!

Simone: It's one of his biggest advantages against men Mac's size, or even larger.

Despayre launches himself at the opposite set of ropes and rebounds back this time with a springboard leg drop over Mac's throat before going for the cover!

ONE!

TWO!

Mac kicks out with authority! He sends Despayre flying backwards and Despayre nearly goes flying out of the ring under the bottom rope!

Adams: And that is a disadvantage. Mac just treated Despayre like a ragdoll!

Mac grabs a hold of the second rope and pulls himself back to his feet before heading over towards Despayre, determined to finish him off once and for all!

Simone: Despayre...turn around!

Adams: That might be worse if he does!

Despayre is sitting on the ring apron as Christina watches quietly, confusing everyone. Mac reaches over the top rope and grabs Despayre by his hair pulling him back to his feet! He tries to flip Despayre back into the ring over the top rope, but Despayre reaches up, grabbing Mac's head, then drops down, causing his throat to bounce off the top rope! Mac stumbles forward, holding his throat, and he's close enough to Myra that just as Despayre slides back into the ring, Myra makes the tag!

Adams: Ladies turn again!!

Simone: And apparently Christina wants an even better view because she's on her feet now.

Despayre is disappointed but he slides right back out of the ring and heads back over towards his corner. Mac drops down and rolls out of the ring, still holding his throat as Myra and Amber fight to end this match once and for all and send their team to the finals! Amber is more determined than ever and as Myra unleashes a fury of rights and lefts! But Amber catches her arm after a few strikes, then headbutts Myra goes to set her up for the Original Sin! But Christina has now caught her attention at ringside as she's taking the bouquet of roses over to Mac as he stands on the outside of the ring!

Simone: What on earth is she doing?!

Adams: She wants to give Mac the flowers to make him feel better!

Simone: I do not think that is her plan...

Amber glares at Christina as Christina attempts to hand the roses over to Mac with a smile, all while checking on him. Amber shoves Myra away and walks over towards the ropes where Christina is near Mac and she's now mouthing off a few warning words to her most recent enemy. Despayre has now jumped off the ring apron and as he rushes over to the escalating situation on the outside, Synn tries to stop him! But Despayre runs over to them, yanks the flowers out of Christina's hands and bolts away! Amber grins, but no one notices that Myra is back on her feet in the ring!

Adams: And all hell has broken loose.

Simone: Just another day in Sin City!

Christina chases after Despayre mostly in an attempt to get the flowers back and when Amber spins around, Myra delivers a stiff boot to the gut causing Amber to double over! She then sets Amber up for the Rebel Bomb, before hitting it beautifully! Myra rolls Amber on to her back and goes for the cover!

Simone: Amber and Despayre in trouble here!!

ONE!

Despayre realizes what is happening and goes to slide into the ring.

Adams: He can't touch Myra though!

TWO!

Christina catches his foot and stops him, causing Synn to quickly approach and yank her hand away from him, but it's all too late!

THREE!

DING DING DING!

Justin: Ladies and gentlemen your winners and advancing to the finals...MYRA RIVERS AND MAC BANE!!

Mac slides back into the ring, first going to check on Amber. Despayre is now standing behind Synn, who is glaring at Christina angrily. Despayre takes the roses and smashes them against the ring apron, knowing what Christina had just had a hand in costing him, her own former Blast From The Past partner!

Simone: This was all part of Christina's plan to get to Amber. Nevermind that it cost Despayre a huge opportunity at the same time.

Once Amber starts to come to, Jasmine raises Mac's and Myra's hands in victory as Myra's music plays. Christina begins to retreat backstage as Amber glares at her the entire time, focused solely on taking the World Bombshell Championship from her.

Adams: Amber is seeing red right about now.

Simone: And if I were Christina, I'd be very afraid of what's to come!

---

In the ring a table is set up with Two chairs. Christian Underwood stands at the end of the table holding a microphone in his hands as we see two lines of security standing in between the ropes and the table on each side.

Adams: Oh man, here we go. It's time for a contract signing

Simone: Fenris and Austin are going to be out here, in the ring, within six feet of each other.

Adams: Yeah, that's a lot of combustible elements

Khemmis "A conversation with Death" hits as Austin James Mercer emerges from the back. He wears his gear getting ready for his match against Lincoln Daniels later tonight and a black and red "Lone wolf" t-shirt. He makes his way down to the ring and up the steps before getting in the ring and moving to the far side eyeing off security as he does with a smirk before grabbing the mic off his side of the desk and looking up at Christian..

Simone: If looks could kill!

Austin James Mercer: You're going to need more security....but, you might as well bring Fenris out here...

Austin drops the mic back on the table and snatches the contract and a pen from Christian signing it without even reading it!.

Simone: Whoa, Austin is ready to go...he didn't even wait for Fenris to get out here to sign it

Adams: I think Fenris calling him a coward got under his skin

Austin James Mercer: Get on out here Kristjan...I've already signed, unless you lack the balls...

"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 wastes no time as he power walks straight toward the ring, paying no mind nor attention to the hands reaching out toward him as his brother Aron dutifully follows.

Simone: I ... admit surprise that Fenris is allowing Aron to be anywhere near where Austin James Mercer is!

Aron holds the ropes for his brother, and Fenris steps through and csteps right up to the table, his eyes burning into Austin's own, neither alpha male taking their hateful gaze from the other. Their faces marred with anger, breaths draw deeper and deeper as the SCW Universe gets fully behind what is about to occur. They can sense it!

Crowd: YES! YES! YES!

Fenris then finally looks down to the contract and grabs the pen, signing his name on the dotted line!

Adams: Fenris didn't bother to read the contract either! He barely even looked at it!

Fenris then snatches the house microphone into his own hands and stares down Austin as he bellows into the mic in his native tongue!

Fenris: Þarna! Undirritaði þér því miður rass litla tík! Útför þín!

Fenris slammed the mic back down onto the table and slid the contract over toward Christian. The boss man picks it up and opens it to closely inspect the signatures, when he frowns briefly at something he is seeing, then a sly smirk curls his lips. He turns to Austin and holds the contract up.

Christian: Austin ... did you even look at what you just signed?

Austin slowly looks over at Christian and shakes his head with a small smirk and a growl under his breath.

Austin James Mercer: Why would I need to?

Christian: Just curious.

He draws the clipboard closer and gives it the once over.

Christian: I just never saw anyone willingly sign to face Fenris in a Lion's Den Match before.

The confident smirk on Austin's face slips into that of a frown and he casts a look to the boss and shakes his head.

Austin James Mercer: I didn't sign for a Lion's Den Match...

Christian: Uh, yeah. You did.

He holds out the clipboard for Austin to see, and taps a finger right where the underlined stipulation is, which clearly states "Lion's Den Match Stipulation."

Christian: Right here. Austin James Mercer versus Fenris; Stipulation Lion's Den

Austin stares at the contract in disbelief, then looks at Fenris who is now the one wearing a cocky and confident smirk on his face! Then his gaze turns up to Aron, who is standing behind his brother with his own wisp of a smile. The manager. The one who would have negotiated this contract...

Austin James Mercer: You son of...!

Austin shoots to his feet with such ferocity that it sends his chair rocketing back against the ropes, causing some of the paid security to have to dodge it or else get stuck by an errant steel folding chair!

Austin James Mercer: I am going to...!

As soon as Austin is on his feet, so is Fenris! The two men look like they are ready to start fighting, and Christian signals for the security!

Christian: No! Absolutely not! Not until Blaze of Glory IX!

The security guards are working overtime, trying to keep the two alpha males separated, and Aron steps up to try and calm his brother, but in doing so he takes one step too close and Austin whips his head forward - and delivers a powerful headbutt right to the side of Aron's head!

Adams: No!

Simone: That son of a ...!! He did it again! He attacked Aron again!!

Adams: And this time right IN FRONT of Fenris!

Aron goes down like he was shot! He lies motionless and his eyes are open but glazed over from the trauma to his head! Fenris stares down at his brother in shock, then up to Austin who takes a step back, wearing a smarmy and smug grin on his face! Fenris's face starts darkening into a deep, red complexion and Austin points at the security and then at his rival!

Adams: Oh bloody hell! Here we go...!

Fenris DIVES at Austin but he is quickly intercepted by the security personnel who hold him at bay as Austin calmly exits the ring. Fenris turns and wrenches an arm free from one guard and PUNCHES him! He then grabs a second a lays the poor bastard out with a knee strike! He is ENRAGED when he is about to further his melt down, when the sight of paramedics entering the ring jolts something inside of him! Fenris looks down and sees his brother, eyes open but seemingly out cold! Christian stops any further action from security as Fenris divs to Aron's side as the paramedics begin tending to him...

Adams: I would not want to be Austin James Mercer for all the money in the world right now!

The camera cuts backstage to Hot Stuff Mark Ward's and Christian Underwood's office to see Hot Stuff Mark Ward sitting behind his desk, working on the computer. A second or two later, one half of the mixed tag team championships, Mikah walks into his office a smirk on her face as she looks at him.

Mikah: Sorry I'm late, I got caught up in ... well, that doesn't matter. All that matters is that I'm here!

He raises an eyebrow at her before glancing at the time on his watch.

HS: The shows almost over. And here I thought I was going to get lucky and not--

Mikah: I mean you could still get lucky.

She winks at him after effectively cutting him off. He is quiet for a moment as he looks at her as if she caught him off guard. He shakes his head but can't control the smirk that crosses his face.

HS: ... I...you know what? Let's not elaborate on that.

She smirks before adjust the short skirt of her red dress before walking around the desk and leaning against it, next to him.

Mikah: I mean...we could elaborate on it after the show...

She looks at him, a mischievous look in her eyes as she looks him over.

Mikah: Maybe at the Chandelier bar....

She moves slightly and pushes him gently away from the desk and moves so she is standing over his lap with one leg on each side of him.

Mikah: Or even at the fireside lounge in the Peppermill...

She looks at him and winks at him.

HS: Sounds...

He doesn't get a chance to finish his sentence when she leans down and kisses him. She leans just slightly more into him before pulling away from him a few moments later. She wrinkles her nose at him before messing his hair up.

Mikah: Just let me know.

She doesn't give him a chance to respond before she kisses him once more before leaving his office, leaving him sitting there.

The scene opens backstage at Climax Control where we see the challenger for tonight's World Bombshell Championship Match Jessie Salco warming up ahead of her big match, as per usual there is heavy metal accompanying her workout, namely the Royal Destroyer album by The Crown.

Simone: Jessie looks focussed tonight.

Adams: She's been here before many times, but the World Bombshell Championship is the one title she has yet to win!

As the last track (Absolute Monarchy) ends Jessie picks her iPhone up before starting to look for another track to play, but she is interrupted by Ms. Rocky Mountains.

Jessie: I don't think you need to say why you're here at this point Rocky.

Ms. Rocky Mountains: True enough, Jessie, tonight you are challenging Christina Rose for the World Bombshell Championship, do you have any last minute thoughts?

Jessie shakes her head.

Jessie: Tell me, did you see the little exchange I had with our illustrious champion on Twitter?

Jessie asks with a scoff and Rocky shakes her head.

Ms. Rocky Mountains: I don't have Twitter, but Mark made sure to show me that Twitter convo to prepare me for the interview.

Jessie: Than you know the basics, Christina's reign is coming to an end tonight.

Jessie states simply as she stands up.

Jessie: Oh sure, she has five title reigns with that belt to my none but only after inputting the cheat code for unlimited title shots! And being a one time Roulette Champion doesn't mean shit compared to the four times I've held it!

Ms. Rocky Mountains: What about the claim that she's an undefeated Internet Champion?

Jessie: I think Myra Rivers has something to say about that! Being an undefeated Internet Champion when you don't even hold the title is an oxymoron to the highest degree and coincidently, take out the "oxy" part of that word and you'd describe Christina and her family perfectly!

Ms. Rocky Mountains: A moron?

Jessie: Exactly! Anything else?

Ms. Rocky Mountains: Are you worried about Char Kwan getting involved?

Jessie shakes her head.

Jessie: If Super Nintendo Chalmers knows what's best for his client, he'll tell Char to stay the hell away from this match! Now if you excuse me, I have a title to win.

Jessie walks off as the scene fades.

Justin: The following contest is your main event and is for the SCW Bombshell World Championship!

The crowd cheer.

Justin: Introducing first the challenger....

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.

Justin: And her opponent....

Meganerd by YTcracker begins to blast all across the speakers as it does so Christina Rose makes her way from the back curtain with her fiancee Seleana Zdunich. Christina smiles as she blows kisses to the crowd as she makes her way down to the ring.

Justin: Being accompanied to the ring by Seleana Zdunich, she is the SCW Bombshell World Champion, she is Christina Rose!

She slaps the outstretched hands of all of the roaring fans. She quickly slides into the ring and kips up to her feet as she waves her hands in the air getting the crowd behind her. She jumps around a bit as she tosses her eye glasses to her fiancee. Seleana smiles as she catches them as she claps for her future wife.

Adams: This is gonna be good!

Christina Rose is standing in her corner as Summers is checking her over for any hidden objects. He does the same to Jessie Salco in a different corner. After doing so, he holds the belt out towards both ladies before lifting it high into the air and turning slowly. Once he completes the 360 degree turn, he walks over to the time keeper's area and hands the belt to a ring technician. When the technician takes the belt, Summers steps back into the center of the ring.

He asks both ladies if they were ready to begin. Rose nods her head followed by Salco as he lifts his hand up and shakes his index finger toward the time keeper.

DING DING DING!

Once the ring bell sounds, Salco and Rose step out of their respective corners and begin to circle each other. Right around the fifth rotation, they meet in the center of the ring with a collar elbow tie up. Jessie being the taller of the two, quickly gains the slight advantage as she walks Rose back into the corner. Summers is telling her to get Rose out of the corner. Jessie looks at the referee before slamming her hand across the chest of Rose. She does it repeatedly before stepping backwards. Rose is holding her chest but grabs Jessie by her head and tosses her into the corner. Rose drives the edge of her hand into Jessie's chest repeatedly before running towards the opposite side of the ring.

As she rebounds off the ropes, Jessie comes flying at her and connects with a flying cross chop. The shot knocks Rose down onto the canvas where Jessie follows it up with a standing moonsault. She lands on top of Rose but instead of going for the cover, she decides to drive her fist into Rose's head. Each shot lands flush before Jessie gets back up to a vertical base. Jessie then picks Rose up by her hair and whips her toward the ropes.

Simone: So far, Jessie is the aggressor but how long can she keep this up?

Adams: How long before Christina takes control of the match?

Rose bounces off the ropes right into the waiting arms of Jessie who twirls her around before dropping her back right down across her knee. Jessie holds Rose in this position while pushing down on her chin and pushing down on her knee. Rose grunts before bringing her free knee up and slamming it into Jessie's head. She does it a few more times causing Jessie to stagger a bit. Jessie loses her grip as Rose rolls off her knee and connects with a step up enzuigiri. The tip of her left shoe catches Jessie behind her ear as Jessie falls forward. Rose notices the positioning as she steps onto the back of Jessie. This causes Jessie to lift her head only to have Rose connect with a basement style dropkick.

Rose quickly rolls Salco onto her shoulders while going for a quick cover. Summers slides into position.

ONE!

TW.....

Salco manages to kick her legs out before the count of two. Rose knew it would take more than to keep Salco down as she gets back up to her feet. She picks Jessie up and hooks her in a front facelock. Once doing so, she shoots her hips and tosses Jessie overhead with a snao suplex. Rose floats over and pins Jessie's shoulder down while driving her forearm across the jawline. Summers once again gets into position.

ONE!

TW.....

Jessie still manages to kick out before the count of two. Rose gets back up to her feet but as she bends to pick Jessie up. Jessie catches her in a small package pin of her own.

ONE!

TW.....

Rose kicks out before the count of two as both ladies get back up to a vertical base. The look at each other before locking back up in the center of the ring. This time Rose gains the advantage as she hooks Jessie in a side headlock. She keeps the hold for a few minutes before Jessie slams her forearm into the side of Rose. She repeats this a few more times before shooting Rose off towards the ropes. Rose rebounds off the ropes and catches Jessie with a headscissor takedown. Jessie uses this moment to slip out of the ring.

Simone: Both women are evenly matched. I'm expecting it will take a big mistake from one of them before the other takes full control of this match.

Adams: Did you see how far Jessie got sent from that move by Christina? I thought she had gained more frequent flyer miles.

Jessie is pacing back and forth while trying to get her head right in the match. Not a second later, Rose is seen coming through the ropes while sending Salco back first into the barricade following a picture perfect suicide dive. Rose is slowly getting back up to her feet as Jessie is still on the ground. Rose does get back up and begins to stomp the hell out of Salco. Rose backs away for a second as Jessie does manage to get back up onto her hands and knees. Summers is telling both ladies to get back into the ring.

Rose sees Jessie getting back up as she comes running at her. She is looking for a shining wizard but Jessie counters by lifting Rose up and slamming her back first onto the ring apron. Rose lets out a shriek as Jessie picks her up and rolls her into the ring.

Adams: That had to hurt.

Simone: Nah, ya think.

Jessie rolls right back into the ring and hits a flipping neck snap as Rose was sitting on her knees. Jessie follows it up with a flying knee drop across the back of her head. Jessie lifts Rose up off the canvas and twists her arm around before hooking her in a hammerlock. Jessie then shoots Rose over her head with a hammerlock northern lights suplex. Jessie doesn't bridge up as she lets go. Rose is holding her left arm as Jessie comes running off the ropes. She is looking for a sliding knee but Rose manages to kip herself up to a standing position then connects with a standing dropkick knocking Jessie down to the canvas.

Rose rolls herself onto her knees as Jessie is doing the same thing. Both ladies are back to a vertical base. Rose comes charging at her and manages to connect with a flying forearm. The shot knocks Jessie backward as Rose connects with multiple knife edge chops across the chest. Jessie retaliates with her own back hand chops across Rose's chest. Jessie follows the chops up with a quick belly to belly suplex. Rose lands on her back again as she bows up. Jessie walks over toward her, she uses the ring ropes as a springboard before landing with double knees across the back of Rose. Rose falls flat as Jessie shoots the half and forgets to hook the leg nearest the ring ropes. Summers slides into position.

ONE!

TWO!

THR.....

Rose sticks her leg out and places her foot across the bottom rope. Summers notices it and stops the count. Jessie is livid that it wasn't a three count. She shakes her head while rolling out onto the ring apron. She motions for Rose to get back up to her feet.

Simone: I have a feeling that this is going to be another near fall.

Rose slowly stands up as Jessie springs up onto the ropes before leaping off. She hooks her arms around Rose's neck and drops her with a tornado style ddt.

Adams: CIRCLE PIT!!!! Could this be all she wrote?

Jessie quickly goes for the cover as Summers slides into position.

ONE!

TWO!

THRE......

At the last second, Rose rolls her shoulder up as Jessie can't believe it.

Adams: Rose kicked out of the circle pit. How?

Simone: Let's not forget Jason. Christina wants Amber Ryan and that's who is waiting at Blaze of Glory. I'm pretty Christina will do everything she can to get her hands on Ryan.

Jessie is still shocked as she goes for the cover again.

ONE!

TWO!

THR.....

Rose kicks out again as Jessie sits up while looking over at the referee. She slams the canvas one time before standing back up to a vertical base. As she does, she looks at Rose still on the canvas. Jessie points to the top rope as she steps through the ring ropes. She slowly begins to ascend up toward the top until her eyes notice Rose moving around in the ring. Jessie abandons her plans and gets back down onto the ring apron. She motions for Rose to get back up as she looks to hit her with a second tornado DDT. Rose does manage to push herself back up to a vertical base.

Jessie springs off the ropes looking for a blockbuster but Rose ducks at the last possible second. Jessie manages to land on her feet as she over-rotated in the air. Jessie thinks she outsmarted Rose but as she turns around. Rose connects with a chick kick right across the bridge of her nose.

Simone: Flashing lights!!!!!!

Rose quickly falls into a pin as Summers slides into position.

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

Summers quickly signals toward the time keeper after counting the three.

DING DING DING!

Justin: Here is your winner and still World Bombshell Champion......Christina Rose!!!!!

Christina rolls out of the ring as Summers hands her the championship. She starts to celebrate while looking into the camera an mouthing "I'm coming for you Amber." Christina slowly backs herself up the ramp as Jessie is just coming too.

Simone: What a way to end the night. Christina retains her championship then sends a message to Amber Ryan.

Jessie has finally made it back up to her feet. She sees Christina still on the ramp while giving her a hand gesture that sums up Jessie's championship pursuit.

Adams: I really thought Jessie had it won this time.

Jessie is running her hands through her sweat soaked hair as Christina's eyes widen. Jessie notices the sudden change as Christina points behind her. Right as Jessie turns around, too see Char Kwan springing off the ropes and connecting with a knee to the side of Jessie's head.

Simone: OH MY GOD!!!!! It's CHAR KWAN!

Adams: Mr. Chalmers did say Char would be here. I guess he was right.

Char is looking down at Jessie as a slight smirk comes across her lips. She lifts her eyes to see Christina Rose still standing on the stage. Char then picks Jessie up as Kiara slides a steel chair into the ring. Char turns her attention back to Jessie as she drops her back first onto the steel chair with a vicious sitout spinebuster. Char looks into Jessie's eyes before slipping out of the ring. She begins to chuckle as "Whistle" begins playing over the sound system.

Adams: Char just sent a message to Jessie.

Simone: Oh that falls count anywhere match is going to be brutal.

Char walks up the ramp but stops as she looks at Christina. Christina lifts the World Bombshell Championship high into the air as Char looks into her eyes before lifting her gaze up towards the title. No words were spoken as Char disappears into the back as Christina is left standing confused.

Simone: Did Char just pick her next victim after Jessie?

Adams: Rose vs Kwan would be an interesting match up.

Simone: That's all the time we have for you folks. Be sure to check your local listings as we return to pay per view with Blaze of Glory.

Adams: This year's show is going to be lit.
