The crowd is alive with energy inside of the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, California. The camera scans around the capacity crowd, cheering and waving while holding up signs for their favorites.
A spotlight then begins to shine and the crowd cheers as ring announcer Justin Decent steps out onto the stage. The handsome exhibitionist jogs out to the ring, slapping hands to the fans who reach out to him.
He is handed the microphone by Jason Adams as he runs up the ring steps and climbs inside of the six-sided SCW ring and walks around, pumping his fist in the air to the tune of the crowd's chants;
Crowd: SCW! SCW! SCW!
Justin then hops up onto the corner turnbuckle and smiles, looking out around the fairgrounds at all of the fans filling the grandstand and the rows of seats around the grounds itself. He drops back down and takes his place in the center of the ring and brings the microphone up to his lips.
Justin: Hello everyone and welcome to the Anaheim Convention Center right here in Anaheim, California, and welcome to Sin City Wrestling "Climax Control"!
The crowd stands and roars in approval as Justin beckons them for louder cheers and they oblige!
Crowd: SCW! SCW! SCW!
Justin: Now please welcome the Hostess With the Mostess for "Climax Control" -- Miss Amanda Hugginkiss!
The fans cheer as Amanda walks out with a pair of glasses on and dressed in a tasteful blue business suit for women. She is accompanied by five young, college age men dressed in black lycra and makeup. The music starts and the five men begin to move ala the Robert Palmer women and Amanda's performance begins.
Amanda: All the broken hearts in the world still beat
I'm a little let down but I'm not dead
All the broken hearts in the world still beat
Chase girls, chase boys, chase boys, chase girls
I'm a little bit home but I'm not there yet
All the broken hearts in the world still beat
Chase girls, chase boys, chase boys, chase girls
I got two hands, one beating heart
All the broken hearts in the world still beat
(Oh everything is going to be fine
Ohh, it's all the same thing
Let's not make it harder than it has to be
Ohh, it's all the same thing
Girls chase boys chase girls
Girls chase boys chase girls
There's a little bit more that has to be said
You played me now I play you too
Let's just call it over
Let's not make it harder than it has to be
Ohh, it's all the same thing
Girls chase boys chase girls
Girls chase boys chase girls
It's one to forgive but it's hard to forget
Don't call me, I won't call you too
Let's just call it over
Let's not make it harder than it has to be
Ohh, it's all the same thing
Girls chase boys chase girls
Girls chase boys chase girls
And I'll be alright
I'm gonna be alright
Yeah I got two hands, one beating heart
And I'll be alright
I'm gonna be alright
Let's not make it harder than it has to be
Ohh, it's all the same thing
Girls chase boys chase girls
Girls chase boys chase girls
Oh everybody loves you baby)
All the broken hearts in the world still beat
Let's not make it harder than it has to be
Ohh, it's all the same thing
Girls chase boys chase girls
Girls chase boys chase girls
Girls chase boys chase girls
The song comes to a close and Amanda takes a sweeping bow to the capacity crowd that cheers her on and applauds yet another fun filled performance!
The camera then returns to the broadcasters table at ringside with Belinda Simone and Jason Adams.
Simone: Welcome one and all to the Anaheim Convention Center in downtown Anaheim, California for Sin City Wrestling Climax Control! Hello everyone and on behalf of my colleague Jason Adams...
Jason leans over into the camera to give a big, bright tooth smile.
Simone: I am Belinda Simone! Six matches showcase tonight's evening, including two championship contests!
Adams: Stakes are high as 2022 is coming to a close, but tonight the legend himself "Chronic" Chris Page shows the world there's a lot to live up to where he's concerned when he faces the Troll!
Simone: Two of the biggest and best go at it when former multi-time champions Mac Bane and Senor Vinnie clash in a singles contest!
Adams: The same then could be said in the next match when two Bombshells who have done it all have a first time encounter when Seleana Zdunich faces Roxi Johnson!
Simone: Bella Madison wanted it and whether Crystal Zdunich likes it or not, she is now going to get it! These two have been itching to tear into one another ever since Bella's in-ring return and it happens not under regular rules but this time around in a Streetfight!
Adams: Then we get the rematch from High Stakes XII! Neither Austin James Mercer or the Internet Champion Alexander Raven could get the win, fighting to a double countout! Tonight they have their deciding match inside of a twenty foot high steel cage!
Simone: And then the Main Event for the World Bombshell Championship! Krystal Wolfe dominated the Roulette division with the longest reign in recorded history but tonight she faces a woman who has only lost twice since her SCW career first began - the reigning and defending champion of the World; Masque! All this and more on Climax Control!
We see Senor Vinnie enter the arena, sporting a new t shirt that reads the three wisdoms of Vinnie, with the three wisdoms written down on the back. He notices Pussy Willow stepping out of a taxi and walks over towards her as he notices her having issues with the taxi driver about the payment.
Willow: Hey, what do you mean $30,00? We agreed on $20,00!!!
The taxi driver is about to say something when suddenly Vinnie interferes.
Vinnie: Excuse me Willow, let me take care of this.
He snaps his head towards the taxi driver and shows a smile.
Vinnie: Dear senor, what is the reason you are charging extra??
Taxi driver: This lady has dropped a bottle of water on the sofa and ruined the leather on the sofa. She needs to pay for it!!
Vinnie stares at the stain and notices something weird.
Willow: I didn't....
But Vinnie cuts her off.
Vinnie: I got this Willow, you sir are a liar. That stain is dried up, so it must have been there a long time. You cannot tell me that she is capable of drying up liquids as the sahara does?
The taxi driver looks at him and swallows noticing his physique.
Vinnie: Here is twenty bucks, now go and dont let me see you again chico.
Vinnie smiles as the taxi driver drives off while complaining, Vinnie turns around towards Willow, who is ecstatic.
Willow: Oh Vinnie, you are my hero.
Vinnie glows from pride as Willow kisses him on the cheek before walking off. Vinnie is savoring the moment before he turns around and is nose to nose with his opponent for tonight in Mac Bane, who looks him up and down and shakes his head before walking off and leaves Vinnie second guessing
Vinnie: What?
Justin: The following match is scheduled for one fall.....
Judas hits by Fozzy as the shot turns towards the entrance way where we see Chronic Chris Page enter the arena as he is received by a loud pop from the crowd.
Justin: Standing in at 6'4 and weighing in at 248 pounds!! Hailing from Detroit, Michigan!!! Chronic Chris Page!!!
Page enters the ring and listens to the crowd singing along to the chorus of the song from Fozzy and smiles before turning his attention towards the ring entrance.
Justin: And his opponent....,
Denis Leary's "Im An Asshole" plays and the crowd boos as the rotund and hyperactive "know-it-all" of professional wrestling, the Troll, runs onto the stage as fast as he can (which altogether isn't that fast). He has an annoying, excited look on his face as he pumps his arms, greeted by the boos of the fans.
Justin: From Parts Unknown, weighing 252 pounds - the Troll!
The Troll points into the ring, taking offense at the "lies" about his grandoise weight being made public. He then "jogs" down to the ring, holding his hands out for high-fives but receives none. He struggles up onto the ring apron and climbs through the ropes, catching his shoe on the middle rope and face plants in the ring, much to the laughter of the crowd. The Troll then gets to his feet and pumps his arms again until he is herded back to his corner
DING DING DING!
The bell has rung as the legendary Chris Page stands across the ring of The Troll, The Troll immediately gets into the face of Chris Page and starts to scream at him that he has a much hotter girlfriend than Page's wife is. This causes Page to turn his head towards the crowd with a smirk on his face that tells everyone in the arena (except for the Troll) that something bad is going to happen to him.
Adams: Doesn't this guy ever learn???
Simone: I guess not, I... OH That got to hurt!!!!
Suddenly Chris Page executes a knife edge chop to the chest of The Troll, this causes the chubby guy to stagger into the ropes as Chris Page follows it up by grabbing The Troll by the head before lifting his arm across his neck before executing one of the best Snap Suplexes that the crowd has ever seen. This causes The Troll to sit up while holding onto his lower back and around the region of his funny bone
Adams: Oh no, he may have hurt his funny bone!!!
Simone: No comments....
Belinda Simone attempts to keep herself from bursting out in laughter from the comment of Jason Adams as Chris Page has gotten back to his feet and delivers a stiff kick to the face of the Troll as that sends him bouncing his head on the canvas as if it is a basketball. Chris Page grabs both of The Troll's legs and sets him up for a Sharpshooter.
Simone: I don't think he is going to get the move on the Troll!!!
Adams: Are you suggesting that Chris Page does not know how to execute that move??
Simone: No Einstein, the legs of the Troll are too short and too fat!!!
Chris Page steps through and then tries to cross the legs before rolling the Troll over on his stomach, but indeed just like Belinda Simone had predicted had found himself in struggling to get the legs across before turning him over. But after a few attempts he finally succeeds as Jasmine attempts to ask The Troll whether he wishes to give up when suddenly a sound of something being ripped apart can be heard as both Jasmine and Chris Page look around as where the sound has come from.
Simone: Oh no...,
Suddenly we all realize that the pants from the Troll has ripped open around his lower region, showing a rather large...
Adams: He... he.... He is wearing bloomers??!!!
Simone: I'm speechless....
The shock on both Chris and Jasmine's faces tell the whole story as Chris lets go off the hold that he had attempted to put on the Troll out of sheer shock and surprise. Causing the Troll to try and cover himself up as much as possible while screaming at the multi time world champion in agony. We suddenly hear the crowd react when a woman dressed in a long sleeveless shirt with pepe le pew in front of it while holding a long dress in her hands.
Simone: Can someone please stop this lunatic fan from assaulting Chris Page???
Adams: Uhm, it's The Troll's supposedly girlfriend Kathrine Lytter
Simone: ........
We see the crazed girlfriend jump the ring apron, demand the Troll to get outside and put on the dress. He slithers to the outside, causing his pants to be ripped open even more before trying to put on the dress under a heavy protest near the steel steps. Kathrine Lytter does a failed attempt to use her body to cover her man up from the bird eye view of the entire arena.
Adams: Do you know what I just noticed Belinda??
Simone: I don't want to know.
Adams: Well...
Simone: I SAID I DON'T WANT TO KNOW!!!!
Adams: Err..., Jasmine hasn't even started the ten count on the Troll...
And indeed inside the ring we see Jasmine stand there, trying to keep her hands in front of her eyes as she does not want to see the horror in front of her. Finally The Troll manages to put on the dress in rather surprising rapid time before getting back in the ring and stands nose to nose with the legendary wrestler whose expression on his face is telling us the entire story. This gives The Troll the opportunity to hit Chris Page with an open hand slap across the face. This causes Chris Page to rub his jaw for a bit before showing a meaningful smile towards the camera as we see the Troll celebrate his first offensive move against Page as if he has won the World championship belt. Hitting the Troll with a Judas Effect after he had turned his attention back towards Chris Page. The impact of the blow had caused him to land on the canvas after being knocked inside out, causing the dress to be lift up over his head as the man of misery is now completely blinded by it.
Simone: You hadn't told me that he was wearing bloomers with flower prints Jason, that in some sick way is kinda.... Err never mind.
Chris Page grabs the Troll where he actually assumes where his head is at and executes a Belly to Belly suplex, the impact of the blow causes the dress to finally leave the face of the Troll as he is gasping for oxygen and relieved being freed from his "captivity". Chris Page grabs him by the head and pulls him up to his feet before placing the Troll's head between his legs as he sets him up for a Piledriver. Lifting up the troll in the air as we see the swinging legs from the Troll desperately trying to force something to escape from the move before being dropped on his head by the piledriver that Chris Page had executed on him. Chris is about to cover the Troll when Lytter jumps up on the ring apron and is screaming at the veteran. Who instead of reacting towards her grabs the Troll by the hair and pulls his seemingly lifeless body off the canvas. Pointing towards Katherine Lytter before whipping The Troll towards the ropes that she stands, causing the Troll to bump into her as she falls off the ring apron. The Troll turns around and notices what has happened and raises his hands towards his head in utter shock. He is about to exit the ring to attend his "girlfriend", only to get spun around by Chris Page and hit by his infamous
Adams: Code Breaker!!!!
Chris covers the Troll as Jasmine drops to her knees and starts to administer the three count
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
DING DING DING!
Justin: The winner of the match by pinfall!! Chronic Chris Page!!!!
Adams: The match is over!!!
Simone: Thank goodness!!!
Chris Page celebrates his victory after having his hand being raised in the air by the official, he then stares at the carnage and shrugs before rolling out of the ring and walks towards the back while the camera crew turns their attention back towards the Troll, who slowly rolls out of the ring and attends to the woman that is "his girlfriend"
We cut backstage to see Bill and Bea Barnhart standing with Senor Vinnie in the staging area where Vinnie is ready to make his entrance for his match against Mac Bane and Bea will be attending the match to be in Vinnie's corner as his Manager.
Bill: Bea I wish you the best being in Senor Vinnie's corner as his Manager. You've taken a lot of abuse, false accusations, and threats of harm, and you keep moving ahead. Do you expect any trouble during Vinnie's match?
Bea: Trouble? For what? I'm in Vinnie's corner to serve as his Manager to make sure the Referee officiates the match properly. I'm sick of the false accusations placed on me and tonight the world will see the accusations were false and I was the one being truthful.
Bill: Do you expect distractions and interference from Chris Page to try to help Mac Bane in the match?
Bea: To be honest I know Chris Page does not get involved in matches unless the opponents and their associated start stuff. The job of Chris as Manager for Mac is the same as my job of Manager when you and Vinnie wrestle. We're there to keep the rules in place and to ensure the Referee does a proper job officiating the match.
Bill: Good answer Bea. Before you make your entrance with Senor Vinnie what is your take on what happened at the Birthday celebration Senor Vinnie prepared for me after my match with Finn Whelan last week?
Bea: I've seen enough Three Stooges episodes to know what happened last week was classic Three Stooges material. It was fun throwing pies and cakes at others.
Bill: Yeah it was fun. Well, Bea, you and Vinnie have a great time in the match and of course I'm rooting for Vinnie for the win.
As Bill utters those words Senor Vinnie turns the corner and comes to where Bea is standing. The two greet each other then they wait until their announcement is made so that the two can make their entrance together.
Vinnie is backstage with Bill Barnhart and Pete, Pete is wearing a drink milk t shirt as Vinnie is frantically waving his arms while explaining something when his arm suddenly hits something
Vinnie: Forgive me, I....
Vinnie turns around to look at the person that he had hit to apologize as we see Mac Bane standing there mad as hell as Vinnie had apparently knocked a glass of water out of his hand and all over the former three time world champion. Mac is about to get face to face with Vinnie and to do who knows what to him.
Vinnie: I am sorry senor, it was an accident. I will pay for the dry cleaner and I will make sure that you will get a refill of that. I....
Mac Bane cuts Vinnie off
Mac: be careful Vinnie, you might do something to someone who's less friendly than I am
Mac pats him on the shoulder and smiles.
Vinnie smiles back as he picks up a bottle of milk thar was on the table next to him.
Vinnie: I appreciate your kind words senor, allow me to present you the gift of nature itself, to add some more calcium to your bones.
He extends his hand as Mac stares at it
Vinnie: Or do you prefer chocolate milk??
You can see mac's good will and mood seem to shift.
Mac: I'm not a child, something you should know all too well, considering the number of times I've left you staring at the lights over the ring.
Mac knocks the offered beverage away. This causes Vinnie to stare at Mac Bane before turning towards the swatted hand, then turning back towards Mac Bane.
Vinnie: Senor Mac, age doesnt change the fact that you are behaving like one. Also you have to understand that you cannot drink on the job, what kind of example does that be for the little children watching this?? I take offense of you not accepting a peace offering, so I will not offer you an honorary Vinstar membership, you just wasted a I got milk button.
The two men stare at each other before Vinnie continues
Vinnie: I will see you in the ring
Vinnie walks off as the shot fades to black
Justin: Our next match is a Standard Rules match with the winner decided by pinfall, submission, knock out, or count out. First to make his way to the ring, from Port Arthur, Texas, at six feet six inches and two hundred eighty pounds, please give a great Anaheim, California welcome for MAC BANE!!!
The opening guitar riffs of "The Enemy" by Godsmack play as the big man, Mac Bane, makes his way out of the backstage area with his Manager "Chronic" Chris Page by his side. The two walk to the center of the landing and stop as the crowd erupts in what can be classified as a mixed reaction. Some of the fans are booing loudly while others have a mixed reaction. The reaction from the crowd continues, and gets louder, as Mac and Chris Page walk down the ramp toward the ring. Some of the anti-Mac fans are hurling rude comments and insults and Mac addresses them in return thus putting them in their place. Mac then laughs and continues walking down the ramp to the ringside area. When Mac and Chris Page arrive at the ring the two climb the ring steps and get into the ring. Mac moves to the center of the ring and he raises both arms into the air and then extending the middle fingers on both hands and he laughs at the fans who are booing him.
Adams: I'm not sure why the fans feel they can be disrespectful and insulting to wrestlers just because they paid for their tickets to watch the wrestling event.
Simone: Get off the pity train Jason. Part of the wrestling adventure for both the wrestlers and the fans is the back and forth between them even when it comes to the insults from the fans.
Justin: Next to make his way to the ring, from Tijuana, Mexico, at six feet eight inches and two hundred eighty pounds, please give a great Anaheim, California welcome for SENOR VINNIE!!!
The crowd is in anticipation of the arrival of Senor Vinnie as the lights go out and a band of 6six Mariachi players come out of the backstage area and onto the landing all playing a guitar. They start to play Cancion del Mariachi as all of them start to sing while walking down the ramp way. Halfway down they stop and three walk to the left and the other three to the right as they stand face to face before Senor Vinnie walks out of the backstage area and onto the landing. Vinnie is sporting expensive sunglasses and a sweater around his neck and carrying an atomizer. He sprays some of his cologne in the air and sniffs it up as if not wanting to smell the foul air around him. He stops as we see his Manager, Bea Barnhart, walk out to accompany him to the ring. After paying tribute to his adoring fans Bill and Bea walk down the ramp to the ring. Vinnie and Bea walk up the ring steps and onto the ring apron. Vinnie holds the ropes open for Bea as she steps through the ropes into the ring. Vinnie then steps through the ropes hands Bea the cologne that he carries with him before posing a few moments before waiting for his opponent/staring down his opponent.
Adams: I thought after the perfume incident with Fenris that both Bea and Vinnie were no longer going around carrying perfume or containers that might contain perfume or cologne to avoid any wrong impressions.
Simone: You have eyes Jason. Look what Bea just did with the bottle of cologne! She left the ring and immediately gave the bottle of cologne that Vinnie handed to her to one of the attendants at ringside and they took it into the backstage area. So can we put a stop to the false accusations right here. . .right now. . .please?
While Chris Page and Bea take their rightful places at ringside as Managers for their wrestlers Referee Drew Patton calls Mac and Vinnie to the middle of the ring. Before going over the rules of the match Referee Patton pats down both wrestlers to ensure they do not have foreign objects on them and he also runs his hands over their wrestling attire and their skin to ensure neither has foreign substances on their skin. Referee Patton then goes over the rules that the match can be won by pinfall, submission, knock out, or a count out, and that he will hold them strictly to the rules of wrestling. He asks both if they fully understand how he is going to officiate the match and both indicate they understand. Referee Drew Patton tells Mac and Vinnie to return to their corners and come out and start wrestling once they hear the bell from the Timekeeper. When both wrestlers return to their respective corners Referee Patton motions to the Timekeeper to ring the bell.
DING DING DING!
Adams: There's no apparent advantage in height or weight between Mac and Senor Vinnie so this match is going to come down to who can get the maneuvers, moves, and holds applied successfully and wear down their opponent for the win.
Simone: Wow, Jason, this is a rare time that I actually agree with your comments!
Mac and Vinnie come out of their corners and meet in the center of the ring. They are smack talking to each other until Vinnie gets tired of the conversation and he slaps Mac across the face. Vinnie doesn't have time to gloat over what he did as Mac replies with a slap to the face of Vinnie. While they two stare down each other again we notice Bea stroll over to Mac Bane's corner where she stops and has a conversation with Chris Page.
Adams: Why would Bea want to have a conversation with Chris Page? Is she trying to distract him from serving as Manager for Mac Bane?
Simone: As long as you've been involved in the wrestling world I think you would know that she just wants to talk with Chris to wish him the best for Mac Bane for this match.
While Chris and Bea are having a conversation Mac glances over and sees the two talking. He assumes Bea is up to dirty tricks or trying to take out Chris so he tells Referee Drew Patton that it appears Bea is doing something illegal. Referee Patton looks over and then he tells Mac he doesn't see anything illegal being done by either Bea or Chris but Mac persists in demanding that Drew Patton break it up between Bea and Chris so Referee Patton reluctantly turns away from Mac and Vinnie and walks to the corner to order Bea to return to her corner. While the Referee's back is turned we see Vinnie drop to his knees. Just as Mac is about to land a blow to Vinnie we see Vinnie lift his arm up hard against the crotch of Mac Bane with a low blow that drops Mac to his knees. Chris Page saw the illegal move and he orders Referee Patton to intervene and give a warning or Disqualification to Senor Vinnie. Referee Patton turns around to see Mac on his knees on the mat and Vinnie standing a short distance away from Bane and he then tells Chris Page that since he didn't see anything happen he cannot make a call on it. Chris Page is livid but he realizes he cannot do anything about something the Referee didn't personally see. We see a huge smile on the face of Bea as she walks to return to her side of the ring to work as Vinnie's Manager.
Adams: This is not right! Bea deliberately distracted Chris Page so that Vinnie would perpetrate an illegal low blow!
Simone: The way I see it, Jason, is that Bea went to have a Manager-to-Manager talk and to wish each other the best for their wrestlers and something happened in the ring and apparently nobody saw exactly what happened except for Chris Page claims happened. The way I saw it it was an inadvertent move on the part of Vinnie that just happened to hit Mac in the crotch. Remember the Referee is not able to make any call on an item they didn't personally see happen.
Adams: Drew Patton needs to be focused on Mac and Vinnie and not get distracted by other things.
When Vinnie approaches Mac who is still on his knees Mac lands a very hard punch to the midsection of Vinnie. This stops Vinnie's approach for a moment which is long enough for Mac to lunge and land a head butt the midsection of Vinnie. When Vinnie doubles over from the back-to-back blows to his midsection Mac gets up and grabs the arm of Vinnie and whips him hard into the ropes. Mac follows Vinnie to the ropes and when Vinnie rebounds off the ropes Bane hits a clothesline on Vinnie that causes Vinnie to drop on the mat. Mac leaps onto Vinnie and hooks both of Vinnie's legs and goes for the pin.
ONE!
TWO!
Vinnie gets a shoulder up before Referee Patton can bring his hand down for the third count on the attempted pin and he holds up two fingers to let everyone know it was a two count. Mac slaps the mat as he thought he had the pinfall but he doesn't dwell on it as Vinnie has rolled over and is getting to his feet and Bane doesn't want to give Vinnie any time to make a recovery.
Adams: I thought Mac Bane had the win there. It was so close.
Simone: As the saying goes, Jason, closies only count in Horseshoes and Hand Grenades and this is a wrestling match so closies don't count in wrestling matches.
Mac grabs Vinnie by the hair and pulls Vinnie upright and they he starts laying knees to Vinnie's midsection. Vinnie is doubled over from the blows but he still throws his own blows trying to back Mac off a bit. When that doesn't work Vinnie backs into a corner and when Mac runs at him Vinnie dives out of the corner. When Mac Turns around Vinnie is standing in front of him but at a far enough distance so that Vinnie cannot land blows on him. Mac, being against the ropes and with his leg though the ropes, asks Referee Drew Patton to order Vinnie to stay back until he gets himself out of the ropes. Although Referee Patton does order Vinnie to stay back until Bane comes out of the ropes he also informs Mac that he will only give him a short time to come out of the ropes or he will start a count on him.
Adams: This is what a Referee should do during matches. They need to keep the action of the wrestlers going to give the fans a non-boring match.
Simone: I don't feel this match is boring. Both wrestlers are being careful not to make a mistake what would cost them the match.
As Vinnie approaches Mac we watch as Mac spins out of the corner. He then gets behind Vinnie and executes a Suplex on him driving him hard into the mat. When Vinnie gets to his feet Bane hits Vinnie with a Slingshot Lariat again driving Vinnie into the mat. Mac Bane backs into the corner to wait for Vinnie to try to get up so he can finish him off. What Mac didn't realize is that he backed into Vinnie's corner and that caused Bea, Vinnie's Manager, to jump up on the ring apron and this causes Chris Page to yell out to Mac that Bea is attempting something behind him. Vinnie has gotten to his feet and he sees Mac in the corner but he doesn't see that Bea is standing behind him on the ring apron. As Vinnie launches himself into the corner to land a hard forearm to Mac Bane we see Mac dive out of the corner and this causes Vinnie to fly into the air and land the forearm into Bea knocking her off the ring apron to the arena floor.
Adams: Mac dodged the bullet with that dive out of the corner. Bea doesn't seem to be doing well right now and that has Vinnie concerned.
Simone: As well he should be concerned since he missed the hit on Mac Bane and hit Bea instead.
Vinnie realizes he is not able to exit the ring to assist Bea so he turns around and when he faces Mac we see Bane land a knee to Vinnie's midsection then a few forearm smashes to Vinnie's throat. Bane then turns Vinnie to facing away from him and he locks in a Dragon Sleeper hold. Mac drags Vinnie down to the mat and then wraps his legs around the body of Vinnie with a body scissors. Mac tightens the grip he has on the sleeper hold and Referee Drew Patton steps in to ask Vinnie if he wants to submit. When he doesn't get a response from Vinnie he asks him again and again he doesn't get a response from Vinnie. Referee Patton then calls for the bell to end the match.
DING DING DING!
Adams: That was interesting. Why did Referee Patton call for the bell if Vinnie wasn't responding to his question whether he wanted to submit?
Simone: Referee Patton obviously felt since Vinnie was unable to respond that it was better for him to call the match to avoid any possible injuries.
Referee Drew Patton talks to Justin Decent and then Justin gives the official decision of this match.
Justin: Ladies and gentlemen Referee Drew Patton had determined that since Senor Vinnie was not responding to his questions he decided to end the match to prevent possible serious injury. Therefore the winner of this match, by submission, MAC BANE!!!
Mac's hand is raised in victory and when Referee Patton releases Mac's hand we watch as Bane leaves the ring and hooks up with Chris Page and the two head up the ramp to return to the backstage area. When we return to the ring we see Bea has regained consciousness and Vinnie has also. The two confer with each other and it appears both are not happy with Referee Patton's decision.
Adams: It appears that Vinnie and Bea are not happy with the Referee's decision in this match. Maybe that might lead to them demanding a rematch with Mac Bane.
Simone: Honestly it is better sometimes to walk away from a match and look toward your next match.
Vinnie and Bea slowly walk up the ramp, then across the landing, then they slip into the backstage area.
Justin: Ladies and gentlemen! Please welcome once again - Ms. Amanda Hugginkiss!
The crowd cheers in Anaheim as the spotlight over the stage illuminates a set up reminiscent of a 1950s TV ad, complete with podium setup and a table covered in bottles of various colors and sizes. And there front and center is Amanda dressed ala Lucille Ball.
Amanda: Do you have feelings of inadequacy?
Do you suffer from shyness?
Do you sometimes wish you were more assertive?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist about Tequila.
Tequila is the safe, natural way to feel better and more confident about yourself and your actions.
Tequila can help ease you out of your shyness and let you tell the world that you're ready and willing to do just about anything.
You will notice the benefits of Tequila almost immediately, and with a regimen of regular doses you can overcome any obstacles that prevent you from living the life you want to live.
Shyness and awkwardness will be a thing of the past, (well shyness anyway) and you will discover many talents you never knew you had. Stop hiding and start living, with Tequila.
Tequila may not be right for everyone. Women who are pregnant or nursing should not use Tequila. However, women who wouldn't mind nursing or becoming pregnant are encouraged to try it.
Side effects may include dizziness, nausea, vomiting, incarceration, erotic lustfulness, loss of motor control, loss of clothing, loss of money, loss of virginity, delusions of grandeur, table dancing, headache, dehydration, dry mouth, and a desire to sing Karaoke and play all-night rounds of Strip Poker, Truth Or Dare, and Naked Twister.
Warning! The consumption of alcohol may make you think you're whispering when you're not. Is a major factor in dancing like a r****d. May cause you to tell your friends over and over that you're in love with them. Also may cause you to think you can sing.
Alcohol may lead you to believe that ex-lovers are really dying for you to telephone them at four in the morning.
Alcohol may make you think you can logically converse with members of the opposite sex without spitting.
It may create the illusion that you are tougher, smarter, faster and better looking than most people. And it may lead you to believe that people are laughing WITH you.
Alcohol may cause pregnancy and it also may be a major factor in getting your ass kicked.
So what are you waiting for? Stop hiding and start living with Tequila!
Amanda gives a goofy pose with a bottle and smiles as the spotlight winks out and the crowd laughs and cheers.
There seems to be a murmur in the crowd as a person wearing a hooded sweatshirt begins marching through the crowd towards the commentary area. He is met by security directly behind the desk.
Simone: I'm not sure what's going on right now.
Adams: There is some kind of disruption
The man puts his hands out at his sides, and instead of taking the man out, security actually steps back.
Simone: What the hell is going on?
Adams: It's Go...
Adams isn't given the chance to finish his sentence as the man pulls the headset off of him. The man pulls off the hood revealing himself as "Godly" Ken Davison. He puts the headset on and leans in between Simone and Adams.
Davison: Is this thing on? Good.
"Godly" Ken Davison places his hand on Adams' shoulder.
Davison: Sorry, man. This had to be done, one way or another.
Adams can only put his hands up, knowing full well he can't do anything about it.
Davison: Finn Whelan, you know that I could have stayed home this week. I could have stayed home and spent my time training for this match. Instead, I flew my ass out here to Anaheim because I have something you need to hear.
Davison stands up straight, pointing directly at the camera.
Davison: Your entrance music asks "Do you cross your heart when you hope to die?" I want you to understand that I don't need to cross my heart because I cannot die. I have survived more in this lifetime than any other man on this roster. I was stricken with a widowmaker heart attack three and a half years ago, I waited ten days to go to the hospital. They put me under and opened up my heart, and I was gone. I saw the light. So, what did I do when I walked up to the pearly gates? I bitch slapped God, Himself, and told him that it wasn't my time. If the great and mighty God can't keep me down, what in the bluest of blue hells makes you think you can?
Davison slams his fist on the desk, causing Simone to jump.
Davison: Congratulations, kid. You had your moment. Good on you. Now, you are the point I have to make. I am tired of the disrespect. Chronic Chris Page walks in here to a hero's welcome and immediately gets put into a number one contender's match for MY World Championship. When I walked in, I got a match against Levi, never to be seen in SCW again, Russow. Then, we roll around to the end of the year and it's awards season. My first year here and I captured the Internet and World Championships. Do I get nominated for Rookie of the Year? No. I'm a vet in the business. I get that. Mac Bane wins Man of the Year? With multiple world championships, that's understandable. What isn't understandable is that I wasn't even nominated. I was the Sin City World Champion when the ballots went out and I was nominated for exactly zero awards. That's disrespect/ Handing Chris Page opportunities based on his resume when mine is just as impressive? That's disrespect. Thinking that you are going to beat me once again, Whelan? That's disrespect. I am sick and tired of being disrespected and if I will not be given the respect I deserve, then I am going to show up at next week's Climax Control and I will take it along with the Sin City Wrestling World Championship.
Davison takes the headset off and walks away, leving the commentary team stunned.
Justin: This match is scheduled for one fall... introducing first... she resides in Los Angeles, California... Seleana Zdunich...
The arena fades to black as the screen lights up and we are treated to an old school movie countdown image.

Suddenly the countdown is stopped by claws slashing through the image and a cat's roar sounds through the arena. Janet Jackson's "Black Cat" blasts through the speakers and Seleana Zdunich walks through the entranceway and makes her way to the ring, slapping hands along the way as the crowd cheers her on.
Justin: and her opponent... hailing from Tampa, Florida... Roxi Johnson...
The opening keyboard notes of "The Touch" begin on the PA system. Stan Bush's voice rings out and soon the power chords kick in to begin the song. The cameras pan around the arena, and soon, spotted in amongst the fans, is Roxi Johnson slowly making her way through them, slapping the fans five and getting patted on the shoulders as he moves through the swarm of fans. The fans continuing singing with the song as Roxi continues her journey through them, stopping and singing along with them. She treks onward, seemingly greeting every fan, before she is lifted on top of the fans and they crowd surf her towards the ring, imitating a superhero “flying†motion. She makes it and lands on her feet on the arena floor to which she high fives the closest fan before climbing up on the apron and climbing the turnbuckle and raising her arms in the air to massive cheers. She jumps down from the top turnbuckle and lands in the ring, and begins jumping up and down in an exercising manner as the music cuts out.
The ref moves in and checks both for weapons before indicating for the bell to be rung...
DING DING DING!
Zdunich and Johnson circle the ring and warm up as they contemplate their first moves, as they move in and shake hands before moving back.
They move in and lock up in the centre of the ring and briefly jockey for position before Zdunich breaks and grabs Johnson's arm and quickly transitions into a wristlock, which Johnson drops to a knee as Zdunich tweaks on Johnson's wrist and puts the pressure on. Johnson grimaces in pain, as Zdunich yanks on Johnson's arm, however, Johnson battles through the pain and rises up and then rolls forward before moving into a cartwheel before flipping forward and then pivoting on his heel and kips up and counters the wristlock and turns it around on Zdunich.
Simone: Zdunich and Johnson lock up, but it's Zdunich who strikes first and grabs Johnson's arm and puts her in a wrist lock, where Zdunich works over the wrist, but Johnson fights back with a series of impressive rolls, cartwheels and flips and counters and turns the wrist lock on Zdunich.
Johnson cranks on Zdunich' wrist and before adjusting and gives an extra forceful yank and flips Zdunich onto her back. Johnson bends Zdunich' wrist back and Zdunich kicks her legs about as he seeks a way out of the wrist lock, as he even grabs at Johnson's face, but Johnson isn't put off. She removes her hand and then kicks her legs out for a kip up and once back to her feet, she slaps Johnson's hand away to break the wrist lock before backing away.
Adams: Johnson takes down Zdunich with a wrist lock, which Zdunich quickly seeks a way out of the move, and she does before kipping up and slapping away Johnson's hand before backing away.
Johnson goes to move back in but Selena catches Johnson with a kick to the gut, which Johnson stumbles back and drops to a knee. Selena approaches and delivers a chop across the back of Johnson's neck who pops up and holds the back of her neck and Zdunich quickly follows up with another boot to the stomach before following up with clubs across the back of Johnson's neck. Johnson reels from those shots, as Zdunich pulls her up and hits a forearm shot across the side of her head, as the ref tells Zdunich to move away from the ropes. Zdunich puts her hands up and backs off for a moment.
Simone: Zdunich rocks Johnson with clubbing blow across her neck before sticking in a bot and then some more blows to Johnson's back.
Johnson remains in the corner and reels from all the shots from Zdunich, as Zdunich takes a moment before moving back to Johnson and grabs her and pulls her from the corner and goes for an Irish whip, but Johnson counters and whips Zdunich into the corner instead. Johnson rushes forward, but Zdunich leaps up and rolls off the back of Johnson's back land on her feet before rolling forward again and back to her feet, as Johnson charges forward and Zdunich prepares to hit her, but Johnson stops dead to avoid Zdunich's pending attack.
Adams: The match momentarily speeds up but comes to a grinding halt just as Johnson does, as she avoids Zdunich and a possible punch.
Zdunich smirks, as Johnson lets a couple of heavy breaths as she shrugs and stretches, as she tries to recover from the clubbing blows across her back. Zdunich tries to take advantage of the stalling Roxi, and she charges in, but Johnson gets an elbow up and Zdunich catches it.
Simone: Zdunich tries for an attack on the reeling Johnson, but Johnson catches Zdunich with a high elbow.
Adams: Both are trying to be respectful, but it's just not possible.
Zdunich staggers away holding her face, she then slowly approaches Zdunich, who is leaning against the ropes, Johnson delivers a punch to Zdunich's stomach before following up with a forearm shot.
Simone: Johnson is now on Zdunich, and she delivers a punch to Zdunich' stomach and then a forearm shot.
Zdunich quickly grabs Johnson and throws her up against the ropes and proceeds to hit a couple of forearm shots before following up with a chop to the chest. Johnson drops to a knee holding her chest, while Zdunich takes a moment to before turning and rushing Johnson, but Johnson is ready for her and sends her up and over to the apron outside. Johnson turns and Zdunich goes for a wild swing but Johnson ducks and drives a shoulder into Zdunich' stomach, which Zdunich drops to a knee and Johnson backs away and then runs in and hits a dropkick through the ropes and Zdunich disappears off the apron and onto the mat below.
Adams: Well that punch to the stomach shows little respect and with Johnson sending Zdunich over the ropes before driving a shoulder into Zdunich stomach and then sending her off the apron to the mat, might change things.
Simone: Well you never know.
Zdunich rolls away, as Johnson climbs to her feet and looks down at Zdunich before climbing through the ropes and onto the apron, as she watches Zdunich very carefully. Zdunich grabs the barriers and pulls herself up and as she turns Johnson leaps off the apron with a crossbody, but Zdunich catches her. Zdunich then lifts Johnson onto her shoulders and then dumps her onto the barriers. Zdunich takes a second before grabbing Johnson and pulls her off the barriers before grabbing her by the hair and pulls her up, as she looks up the ref, who has given up demanding the action to be brough back into the ring and has started counting and is up to 4.
Simone: Just as it seems Zdunich is out of this, she catches Johnson, who attempts a crossbody onto her and then dumps her onto the barriers.
Adams: She isn't done, as she pulls Johnson off the barriers and proceeds to hit a running bulldog.
Zdunich grabs Johnson around the head and proceeds to hit a running bulldog onto the mat. Zdunich climbs to her feet.
FIVE!
SIX!
Zdunich moves to Johnson, where she grabs her and rolls her into the ring, where she follows close behind and goes for a pin...
Adams: The ref gets to six, before Zdunich drags Johnson and herself back into the ring.
ONE!
TWO!
Th... kickout...
Zdunich looks to the ref for confirmation before trying again...
Simone: Johnson barely kicks out.
ONE!
TWO!
Kickout!
Zdunich sighs, as she climbs to her feet, as she looks down at Johnson and then turns and goes for a springboard corkscrew moonsault onto Johnson and goes for another pin...
ONE!
TWO!
Thr... kickout!
Adams: Johnson is working hard to stay in this match.
Zdunich slaps the mat, as she moves to her feet once more, where she grabs Johnson and pulls her up, as she then whips Johnson into the ropes and as she comes back, Zdunich swings for the En Kristen Rättighet (A Woman's Right punch), but Johnson ducks and turns and kicks Zdunich in the stomach before grabbing Zdunich and climbs the ropes and hits a tornado DDT. Zdunich rolls away, as Johnson stays down momentarily, before slowly making it back to her feet. She stumbles over to Zdunich and pulls her up. Zdunich shoves her away in desperation, but Johnson moves in as Zdunich tries to kick Johnson in the stomach, but Johnson grabs Zdunich foot and hits a dragon screw.
Simone: Zdunich is getting a little frustrated I think, as the frustration from not getting the pin, Johnson dodges the punch and ends up with Johnson getting a tornado ddt.
Adams: Johnson struggling a little also from Zdunich previous moves, but she is back to her feet and moves to Zdunich, but Zdunich shoves her away. But Johnson isn't put off and she moves to Zdunich, who tries to kick her but Johnson grabs her foot and hits a nice dragon screw.
Zdunich rolls away towards the ropes as she holds her leg, Johnson approaches and Zdunich grabs the ropes for a rope break, as the ref keeps Johnson back. Zdunich uses the ropes and pulls herself up, as Johnson rushes in, but Zdunich sends Johnson up and over the ropes onto the apron. Zdunich turns and is caught with a high knee from Johnson. Zdunich stumbles away holding her face, as Johnson climbs through the ropes and Zdunich turns, Johnson hits the ropes and catches Zdunich with the Ray of Hope (Cody Rhodes Beautiful Disaster).
Adams: And Zdunich reels from the drag screw, she takes a rope break before making her way back to her feet, as Johnson rushes in, but Zdunich sends her over the ropes to the apron.
Simone: Zdunich tries to take advantage, but it fails, and she gets a knee to the face.
Adams: Johnson climbs back into the ring and leaps onto the ropes and hits the Ray of Hope.
Johnson goes for the pin...
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
Simone: And Johnson picks up the win...
DING DING DING!
Justin: Winner of this match via pinfall... Roxi Johnson.
Johnson's music hits over the p.a, as she climbs off Zdunich and she slowly makes her way to her feet, as the ref raises her arms in victory.
The silhouette of four figures can be seen against a white background, with smoke rising from the upper halves, around their heads. No faces can be seen but a familiar voice can be heard with a slight accent.
Familiar Voice: Sometimes, things come out of nowhere, don't they? One minute you're riding high and the next, things feel a bit rudderless. There's a lot of nasty things walking this earth, Covid, economical crisis, people without a penny to scratch their rear ends with and it's heartbreaking.
Smoke rolls across the camera.
Familiar Voice: And just like our old playground, that too, also heartbreaking. To look at SCW, to look at something that we helped grow become what it is today is a bit sad and I'm not alone in thinking just that. Champions not showing up for work, people getting told what they're doing months in advance and just letting it all pass them by, people being expected to send in simple things to sell their matches and coming up with excuses on why they didn't. That's not the SCW that we know.
The camera tightens on the shadows.
Familiar Voice: That's not what we bled for, that's not what we put our bodies on the line for when honestly, we didn't need to, but it is what it's become. It's not the same place we knew, because people used to work to keep it as the number one company in the world, people used to show up for five minutes to earn those notes they put in their pockets and helped to feed their families and now, it's nothing like that.
A puff of smoke can be seen crossing the white background.
Familiar Voice: We're not gonna use that tired old we're coming back to save it rubbish, no. We're not even gonna show you who we used to be, but we are coming back to put you all to shame and show you how to actually work. Every single division, every single champion, every single singles, tag, stable and couple, it's time to show you how to really work, cause we're not coming back to sit on the sidelines.
The camera turns to focus on an ashtray on a table.
Familiar Voice: We're coming back to lead and show you how it's done....
A cigarette can be seen stubbed out in the ashtray before "I'm So Sorry" by Imagine Dragons start to play. The crowd cheer as the camera moves up to see the man behind the voice, Daniel J Morgan, dressed impeccably in a suit, standing with Osbourne behind him, Charlotte Elliot to his left and Mackenzie Page to his right. Daniel smiles at the camera before winking. The camera fades to black on the four members of London Underground.
Love You To Death from Type O Negative hits as we see Melissa walk out to the ring on her own, she is wearing a classy dress with high heels as her hair is tied into a ponytail.
Simone: Last week Melissa told the world, but mostly Jessie Salco that she had a challenge for a final match to end their rivalry
Adams: Both women have been at each other's throats for months, i thought we seen the last of these two at High Stakes but I guess I was wrong
Melissa steps through the middle and bottom rope in an elegant way. She walks over to Justin and gets the microphone handed to her.
Melissa: Hi everyone, I know me and Jessie have gone to war with each other, said some nasty stuff and been at each other's throats, not just because we hate each other but we both feel we are the better wrestler over the other.
She has a cold stare on her face as she waits a moment before continuing
Adams: She scares me
Melissa: But the definition of being better is to be able to step out of your comfort zone and dare to enter the realm of someone's expertise. And I am aware that I have been out of my comfort zone with Jessie since day one, two matches with a winner each. But two matches that she has been feeling more at home than I ever did, but I didn't complain and fought her anyways, because even Jessie would agree that this would make you a better and more allround wrestler. And even though I have lost my last few matches, it will only allow my career to grow into the future, iI still want to end things on my terms this time before both of us go our own way.
She looks at the entrance for a moment, cocks her head sideways before she starts to speak again.
Melissa: I issued a challenge for you to accept Jessie, but before you walk out here there's something I got to say. You see, we have gotten off the wrong foot. I felt disrespected, I sure as hell didn't respect you because of it. But after our match, I look at you in a different way. I respect you as a competitor, I see now why you got nominated to enter the Hall of Fame, something I would one day like to see my name added to as well. But that's not the point right now, because I want to fight you one more time, in order to beat you as well as gaining your respect. I know you. Said you would be here to listen to my challenge, so come on down Jessie.
With thatThe arena cuts to black as the slow guitar intro of "Blood Lightning" by Lutharo is heard over the PA System, right as the song launches into the opening guitar solo the lights start to flash across the arena before a single spotlight shines on Jessie stepping out in her street clothes.
Simone: Jessie went through a brutal Black Friday Brawl last week against Ariana Angelos and whilst she didn't win, she definitely gave Ari a fight!
Adams: She's got a match scheduled for UPRISING in December to boot, against a raw rookie, kinda feel sorry for the rookie to be honest!
Jessie poses at the top of the ramp just as the clean vocals of Krista is heard over the PA before she makes her way down the ramp, Jessie rolls into the ring and poses for the crowd again as the song fades before Jessie takes a mic from a stagehand.
Jessie: So, what part of "I wanted to resolve our issues at High Stakes XII" didn't you understand?
Jessie asks bluntly as she gets in Melissa's face.
Jessie: But no, you had to go and ask for a tie breaker match, what was that about faulty officiating again? Excuse me whilst I take offense to you insulting the integrity of one of SCW's original two referees! Let's get this over with, you said you have a challenge for me, i'll happily take it whatever it is but i've got an idea of my own.
Melissa sighs and shakes her head.
Melissa: I am sorry, does my opinion offend you Jessie? No, don't answer that because I already know the answer. You see, did we really settle it Jessie? I am sure you did, earning a victory in your own match made it sure great doesn't it?
Jessie reacts off camera telling Melissa it did
Melissa: Well it doesn't and deep down inside YOU KNOW IT! And excuse me my dear, it was me that wanted to issue a statement, a challenge of respect. But I guess you just ignored that part didn't you? How convenient of you.
Melissa powers her head to collect her thoughts before snapping it back up again and shows a look of disdain.
Melissa: I have fought YOUR special match and should have won, but I didn't. Now all I want is you step into mine, what's the matter Jessie? Worried I may pull out a distraction to get the better of you? No Jessie, I am not to continue something for another few months, just one more match that would seal the deal who truly is the better wrestler between us. I have fought you under Roulette rules and won, we fought in an extreme match and you won, now who is going to win that I pick a roulette rules Iron woman match, where with every fall a stipulation is selected to compete in. What do you say? You and me a final time?
She's quiet as both women stare each other down.
Melissa: One final match, because I know these people would love to see it. I know that they want to know who is best between the two of us. And I know deep down inside, you can't refuse it. You and me at the next SuperCard. What is your answer?
Jessie: Fitting, considering I've had to endure you for months on end!
Jessie responds before chuckling to herself.
Jessie: Will we top the infamous 12 Labours of Hercules Match? Will Ms. Rocky Mountains' arms fall off by the end of the night? One way to find out, YOU'RE ON!
Melissa smiles as she nods her head.
Melissa: It will be a pleasure to finalize this chapter. I will see you then.
The two stare each other down before Melissa walks off.
Simone: Welcome back to Climax Control! Ever since she was unmasked as the person behind La Rosa Ardiente in a twist that everyone saw coming, Christina Rose has found herself in the crosshairs of several other Bombshells but none have been more vocal than Bella Madison, well tonight the New Yorker is getting her wish! It's Bella Madison vs. Christina Rose in a Street Fight!
Adams: Let's not forget that Christina has sworn up and down that she's done with SCW, we'll see how true that is in the coming weeks, especially after this match!
Simone: This should be a good one! Let's take it to Justin!
Justin: The following contest is scheduled for one fall and is a STREET FIGHT!
The arena goes dark as the ominous tones of New Year's Day's "Shut up" begins to blare. The entrance lights up as does the video screen that shows, climbing up a set of stairs we see with each step taken a different footwear. Saddle shoes followed by heels followed by Chuck Taylors followed by a pair of wrestling shoes with kickpads.
Justin: Introducing first, from New York City, New York, BELLA MADISON!
The roar comes over the sound system as we see Bella standing on top of the entrance. She stands wearing her wrestling gear along with a ring jacket with the hood up and starts making her way to the ring.
Simone: Bella looks focussed on the task at hand tonight!
Adams: She'd better be because say what you will about Christina, she is a Hall of Famer!
Towards the end of the chorus she hops up on the ring side and climbs to the second rope, drops the hood of the jacket with a smirk and a wink as the song fades out.
Justin: And her opponent!
The entire arena fades to black as we are left in nothing but darkness. All of a sudden Crystal's voice can be heard all throughout the speaker systems.
"I'm Coming Out!"
Justin: From Los Angeles, California, Christina Rose!
As soon as that is said explosions can be heard going off as we are treated to some flame pyros. The fans boo loudly in return.
I'm Coming Out by Diana Ross plays across the speakers and it is at that moment when the blue haired red haired "Burning Rose" Crystal Zdunich walks from the curtains. She is accompanied by her manager Todd Williams, and the two of them make their way to the ring. Crystal is focused as she walks to the ring with a purpose. She flips off the crowd who boos in return. She runs up the stairs and walks to the middle of the apron. She flicks her hair before she drops down into a split that gains more boos especially when Todd yells that they would never get her. She slides into the ring and as soon as she is inside she kips up to her feet. She tosses her hoodie towards Todd as she awaits the start of the match. Todd cheers for his client as she seems to be in a trance.
Simone: I doubt there's a more controversial figure in the modern Bombshell Division than Christina!
Adams: Nor is there a list of people who want to beat her up that belongs to any other Bombshell!
Dawn calls the two Bombshells to the middle of the ring to go over the rules with them but Christina rols her eyes before turning her back to Bella as she retrieves something from her top, Bella shakes her head before she spins Christina around only to get her lights knocked out by a single punch to the jaw from Christina as Dawn calls for the bell.
DING DING DING!
Simone: Wow, I didn't think Christina could throw a punch like that!
Adams: Or that Bella Madison was SCW's Glass Joe!
Dawn checks on Bella and we quickly find out why Christina's punch had so much force behind it as she flashes the brass knuckles for the camera.
Simone: Well, that explains it!
Adams: Makes you wonder why Christina hid those in her top but she's going for a pin on Bella!
ONE!
TWO!
And it seems that Christina's taunting for the crowd may have cost her because Bella gets the shoulder up! Christina growls before she mounts the Blonde Bombshell and starts punching Bella in the face with the Brass Knuckles busting open the New Yorker! It only stops when Bella's able to recover enough from the initial assault to reverse the mounted position into a pinning predicament of her own!
ONE!
TWO!
And Christina gets the shoulder up! Christina quickly rolls to the outside of the ring to grab a weapon or two, namely a chair and two trash cans followed by a table! Christina rolls the chair and the first trash can into the ring but takes the time to set up the table on the outside before going for the other trashcan only to get it kicked into her chest by a Baseball Slide Dropkick by Bella! This sends Christina stumbling back towards the announcer's desk at which point Bella launches herself over the top rope ad onto Christina with a Cross Body, SENDING BOTH WOMEN THROUGH THE ANNOUNCER'S TABLE!
Simone: HEY! WE NEED THIS TABLE INTACT YOU KNOW!
Adams: I DON'T THINK THEY ARE LISTENING BELINDA!
Crowd: HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!
Dawn can only watch on due to the rules of the match but it isn't long before Bella is back on her feet and it becomes clear that she isn't done with Christina, she starts by placing the second trash can over Christina's upper body and laying her across the table before she returns to the ring and gets the chair set up next to the ring ropes, Dawn gives Bella a look that screams "are you crazy" but she disregards that before charging up and using the chair as a springboard to get to the top rope and hit a flip dive onto the trash can containing Christina sending both through the table!
Simone: My chest, my back, screw it! Everything hurts after watching what Bella just did to Christina!
Adams: Thing is? This isn't Falls Count Anywhere she needs to get Christina back into the ring!
Crowd: THIS IS AWESOME! THIS IS AWESOME! THIS IS AWESOME! THIS IS AWESOME!
Dawn leaves the ring to check on the participants this time around and even after confirming that both Bella and Christina are (relatively) okay she still can't do much due to the rules of the match! Even after Bella removes he trash can from Christina's upper body (revealing that she too was busted open by that move) and goes for the pin on instinct Dawn has to remind Bella that this isn't a Falls Count Anywhere Match and that she needs to return Christina to the ring before she can go for a pin! Bella is slow to do so after the pain she just inflicted on herself but Bella does indeed return Christina to the ring before going for a pin.
ONE!
TWO!
And Christina kicks out!
Simone: I think the time it took Bella to get Christina back into the ring was what cost her in the end there!
Adams: I can't really argue with that, if this was Falls Count Anywhere Bella would've had the pin there for sure!
Bella shakes her head before deciding on her next move, whilst that's going on Christina notices the trash can that she had rolled into the ring earlier in the match and reaches for it before Bella goes for a Triple Jump Springboard Moonsault only to have it blocked by the trash can! Bella rolls around in pain and Christina goes for a pin!
ONE!
TWO!
And Bella still manages to kick out! But Christina doesn't keep up the offence, instead she rolls out of he ring to retrieve another weapon from underneath the ring whilst Dawn checks on Bella!
Simone: You ever wonder why they keep so many weapons underneath the ring?
Adams: Who knows? But Bella and Christina are taking full advantage of it!
Christina reaches under the ring and retrieves a bag of thumbtacks from underneath the ring and returns to the ring with them before emptying the bag onto the matt! Christina then grabs Bella and goes to Suplex her onto the thumbtacks only for Bella to slip out the back and hit her with a reverse DDT that drops her back first onto the tacks!
Simone: I think it's safe to say that Christina won't be able to sit down comfortably for a while!
Adams: Fitting considering she had something similar in mind for Bella by way of forced acupuncture!
Christina rolls around the matt in agony as she feels the thumbtacks poking into her back, Bella spots the Brass Knuckles that Christina introduced into the match earlier and grabs them before putting them on her hand and measuring up Christina! Once Christina is finally back on her feet Bella hits a MASSIVE right hand using the brass knuckles and Christina goes out like a light dropping to the matt like a sack of potatoes.
Adams: Bella just hit Christina so hard that she developed a whole new personality!
Simone: Okay, I'll admit, I laughed!
Bella quickly discards the brass knuckles and throws them out of the ring and initially goes for the pin, and then changes her mind as she positions the chair in its folded-up state by her feet and picks up Christina's limp form before she gets her in a DDT position.
Bella Madison: THIS IS FOR INJURING CHLOE!
Simone: ASHES TO ASHES! BELLA HITS IT ON THE CHAIR!
Adams: But I don't think she's done!
Bella Madison: THIS IS FOR ALL THE PERSONALITIES YOU'VE DEVELOPED OVER THE YEARS!
BELLA HITS CHRISTINA WITH FIVE ASHES TO ASHES ONTO THE CHAIR!
Simone: This might be overkill by Bella!
Adams: And it couldn't have happened to a nicer girl!
Bella Madison: This is for insulting everyone's intelligence with that La Rose Ardiente crap!
BELLA HITS FOUR MORE ASHES TO ASHES ONTO THE CHAIR!
Bella Madison: And this is for wasting my time!
And with one final Ashes to Ashes onto the chair Dawn doesn't even bother waiting for Bella to go for the pin as she just calls for the bell!
DING DING DING!
Justin: Here is your winner via knockout, BELLA MADISON!
Simone: I don't think we've ever seen a more cathartic end to a match!
Adams: Here come the paramedics to get Christina out of here!
The paramedics rush down and get Christina onto a stretcher and wheel her out of there as Bella celebrates. Bella gets her hand raised in the air one more time to the delight of the fans. She brings her hands down and looks at the brass knuckles and calls for the microphone from Justin, she looks down at Crystal getting loaded onto the gurney by the medical personnel and smirks. She can't help but walk over to the side where they are at and kneel down next to them.
Bella Madison: Well, it isn't every day that I get to be here and watch my opponent being rolled out of here, but damn it, I do love it at this particular moment. Crystal, if you are conscious enough to hear me right now, you brought this on yourself. I warned you about how karma comes around, and did you listen? NOPE!
Bella leans forward just a little bit.
Bella Madison: Just had to do it the hard way, didn't ya? Sorry, not sorry.
She turns on her heels, using the ropes a bit to help her up. She stands a little taller and looks around.
Bella Madison: Speaking of karma...Kayla Richards, the bitch of Norwich...
Simone: Oh no...
Adams: Here we go.
Bella Madison: You know, I have spent the last few weeks since High Stakes, trying to figure out what to say that I hadn't already said. I told Kayla that come hell or high water, that I would not quit. It took me to pass out for her to get her hand raise with that damn Internet Title still in her grasp. But what does she do, instead of celebrating and move on?
Bella stops and looks dead ahead.
Bella Madison: She just had to go and poke the proverbial bear, and I heard it all...but I wasn't the only one that heard it. You got something to say about my family? Perhaps you should say it to my face. You know where to find me, Kayla. I'm sure I'll see you soon enough.
Bella's music hits as she tosses the microphone back to Justin and hops out of the ring, looking over at Crystal still being attended and smiles brightly before heading to the back, soaking in the cheers of the Anaheim crowd.
The opening guitar riff to "In the Middle of the Night" by Within Temptation hits the speakers and the crowd comes unglued as Ariana emerges from the back wearing her street clothes and with her back to the crowd holding her Roulette Championship above her head.
Justin: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the Bombshell Roulette Champion "The Greek Angel" Ariana Angelos!
Simone: Ariana is someone who many thought wouldn't make it past the first defence of that title for one simple reason, she's a sweetheart and nice girls finish last.
Adams: But she's proven that as nice as she is, Ariana can rise to any occasion! She made Seleana tap out in a Submission Match, she took the match's name literally in a Falls Count Anywhere Match against Melissa, her rematch with Seleana was a Spider Web Match which saw her retain the title again and just last week? Jessie gave Ariana her most brutal challenge to date in the annual Black Friday Brawl but she still retained! What will it take for her reign to end?
Ariana spins around right as the song kicks into high gear with the opening lyrics, she poses for the crowd as she makes her way down to the ring before rolling into the ring and taking a mic from a stagehand.
Ariana: I've had one heck of a year, haven't I?
Ariana asks as she looks at the Roulette Title.
Ariana: At the start of the year? My future was uncertain, I was literally fighting for my job in SCU because I DARED to stand up for my best friend HB Carter when management was screwing him over! I got attacked, AGAIN and right when I was set to visit my family's home county of Greece for the first time since I was young I got the news that the battle I fought for my job was a moot point because this year ended up being SCU's final year!
Ariana lets out a deep breath as she runs a hand down her face.
Ariana: When I got the news, I had asked SCW management if I could have a showcase match when SCW stopped by the island of Corfu, also known as the home place of my family line, when I beat Kaiju Rainbow in that match I was faced with a choice: either remain in SCU for the final few months of its existence or sign a contract with SCW, has my SCW career had its ups and downs since I signed that contract? Yeah, I don't see any point in denying that, but these past two months?
Ariana looks at her title again before raising it high above her head.
Ariana: It's made all the crap I went through to get here worth it!
The crowd gives the young champion applause as she puts the title down at her feet.
Ariana: But even then it hasn't been easy, Seleana Zdunich, Melissa, Jessie Salco, those three women all stepped up to challenge me for this title and I turned away all of them! I made Seleana submit and I scaled the Spider Web to retain the title against her, I broke my tie with Melissa whilst taking the name Falls Count Anywhere very literally and just last week I fought someone who made her SCW debut when I was eleven years old, someone who helped shape this division into what you know it to be today!
Simone: Jason, did that last statement make you feel old or is it just me?
Adams: I think it made everyone who's been in this company since the beginning feel old Belinda!
Ariana: Jessie Salco proved my feelings about her to be 100% correct when I faced her last week in the Black Friday Brawl but even though she came into that match with a clear gameplan, I still walked out of that shopping mall with the gold! Aside from that one tag team match against Team Hero , I've been on a roll since that fateful match against Alicia Lukas but I guess Krystal's competitive side has rubbed off on me somewhat because like she did during her reign, I'm asking one simple question.
Ariana picks up the title and holds it above her head.
Ariana: Who's next?!
The crowd cheers Ariana's question before she continues.
Ariana: There's only a handful of Climax Controls left in the year and whilst I fully understand that if and when I defend this title is completely up to the bosses, I wouldn't say no to defending this title at least once more before the year is over! I don't care if it's next week, the week after or heck, even at the Christmas special I'll be there and I'll be ready to defend this title against whoever steps up! And further to that? I don't care how many other women challenge me for the gold! It could be two, it could be three, it could be four, heck it could be five!
Ariana steps right up to the lens of the nearest camera to deliver her final message.
Ariana: They will all bask in the glow of the Greek Angel's light!
Ariana drops the mic as "In The Middle of the Night" by Within Temptation begins to play again and she backs off holding up her title as she makes her way to the ring ropes.
Simone: Strong words from the youngest champion in the company.
Adams: That title has done a lot to boost Ari's confidence, but who will step up to accept her challenge?
Ariana heads up the ramp with her title in hand as the scene cuts to another part of the backstage area.
The camera switches out to the rear parking garage of the Anaheim Convention Center where the staff and stars of Sin City Wrestling arrive at the start of the show. Currently the setting is more subdued as an ambulance is parked near the double steel doors that allow everyone entrance into the backstage area with two security guards stationed there; one on each side. The double doors suddenly swing open and the medical staff on hand for this event are wheeling Crystal Zdunich out on a gurney and toward the back of the ambulance with the paramedics waiting.
As Co-Owners Christian Underwood and "Hot Stuff" Mark Ward watch on, the medics lift the gurney into the back of the ambulance and after a brief moment securing the patient inside, the doors to the ambulance are shut and locked. Only then does Mark casually walk around toward the front of the ambulance on the driver's side and he gives the door a light rap with his closed fist. It is only then that the driver leans out and is revealed to be a smiling Bella Madison!
The crowd cheers as they watch on the SCW-Tron!
Hot Stuff: Take her away!
Bella salutes with a smile.
Bella Madison: You got it!
She moves to sit back in her seat when...
Hot Stuff: Oh and, Bella?
She leans back out the window. Bella Madison: Hm?
Mark passes a hundred over to her fingers and he winks. Hot Stuff: Go by the bumpiest road you can find? Bella smiles and tips her 'paramedic cap' before she flips a switch that turns on the ambulance lights and the siren. Bella Madison: I've always wanted to do that! The engine of the ambulance then starts and she pulls out as the stereo cranks... "Another one bites the dust....!" Simone: Your eyes don't deceive you folks! Our next match usually only comes up when the Roulette Wheel stops on it but due to the heated animosity and draw at High Stakes between the Internet Champion Alexander Raven and his challenger and hated rival Austin James Mercer the bosses made the decision to not only book a rematch between the two men for the gold but make it a Steel Cage Match! Adams: And to think, this whole drama started when Alexander name dropped Austin in a promo for a World Heavyweight Championship Match! One Powerbomb off the stage later and Austin and Raven have been at each other's throats ever since! Only made worse by the fact that Raven won the Internet Championship a few weeks before the event!
Simone: This is going to be a barn burner folks, let's take it to Justin!
Justin: LADIES AND GENTLEMEN THIS IS A STEEL CAGE MATCH WHERE THE ONLY WAY TO WIN IS BY PINFALL, SUBMISSION OR ESCAPE! AND IT IS FOR THE SCW INTERNET CHAMPIONSHIP!
As all the lights dim, blue and red lights begin to flicker on the stage, images of ravens flying appearing on the screen. 'Ladies and Gentlemen' as these words fill the arena a loud bang of pyro is joined with blinding white lights. These flicker rapidly for a few moments, 'because the devil has my throat,' as these words of the song flow out, out steps Alexander Raven into the centre of the stage.
Justin: Introducing first, from Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, weighing in at 215ibs he is the reigning and defending SCW Internet Champion, ALEXANDER RAVEN!
He gazes across the crowd, pulling his cloak tightly around his shoulders, his eyes opened wide a slight smile tugging at his lips. The flashing off the lights stops. 'I am the powers that be!' in sync with these lines he throws his hands up, basking in the reaction of the crowd, beginning to slowly walk down the ramp. He strolls towards the ring leisurely, crossing his arms across his chest, head tilted back, soaking in the world around him. Slowly he begins to ascend the cage and once he is atop it he sits there only looking towards the ring to drop the Internet Title to Jasmine when she tries to tell him to enter the ring.
Simone: Err, Alexander understands that the stagehands had the door open for him, right?
Adams: I think he's got a pian in mind!
Justin: Introducing the challenger!
The lights shut off as "Medusa" by Times of grace kicks in, as it builds different lights flash around the arena. As the song builds into the refrain and the guitars kick in a spotlight forms on the stage with Austin standing in the middle.
Justin: From Manhattan, New York, weighing in at 265ibs, AUSTIN JAMES..........
Justin doesn't even get a chance to finish announcing Austin's name as Alexander leaps off the top of the steel cage and nails his hated rival with a massive Cross Body!
Simone: Well, that answers that question!
Adams: Normally the ref would call for the bell but the rules state that the match can't start until both competitors are in the steel cage!
Jasmine yells at Raven to bring the fight into the ring so she can start the match but the champion isn't listening as he rains down punches onto Austin's face! After a few moments Austin starts to fight back as the element of surprise wears off and his strength advantage pays dividends as he launches Raven back first into the cage wall!
Simone: The match hasn't even started yet and Raven and Austin are going at it like wild dogs!
Adams: Maybe Jasmine can start the match now that Raven's been launched into the cage wall?
Indeed, Austin starts making his way to the steel steps thinking that Raven is out for the moment but Raven recovers and spears Austin into the steel steps! Austin rolls onto his stomach clutching his back in pain and Raven grabs a chain from his robe before he starts choking Austin with it!
Simone: Will either of these man even be in any condition to compete in the steel cage?
Adams: I don't think we'll have to wait long for the answer to that!
Indeed, Austin's size and strength advantage over Raven has proven to be his greatest asset as once he is up he starts piggybacking Raven up the steps to the open door! Once he's through the door Austin unceremoniously dumps Raven into the ring before following him in allowing Jasmine to finally start the match!
DING DING DING!
Simone: It's not often that we see action like THAT before the match starts but things have gotten so heated between Raven and Austin that it was a matter of if, not when that happened!
Adams: And too think, this match was almost a Lumberjack Match before that Twitter Poll decided to make it a Steel Cage!
Raven gets back to his feet with the cable still in his hands and turns around only to get rocked by a right hand by Austin! Raven scrambles back to his feet but Austin is right on him once again delivering a stiff knee to Raven's midsection and then Suplexing Raven into the Cage Wall! Raven drops down in a heap and Austin pulls him away from the cage wall before going for the first pin of the match.
ONE!
TWO!
And Raven gets the shoulder up! Austin shakes his head before he attempts to escape the cage and win the match in record time but Raven has wrapped the chain around his fist and employs it in a rather painful way.
Simone: OHHHHHHHHHHH! Raven just punched Austin's balls with his chain wrapped hand!
Adams: And there was a disturbance in the force, as men all over the world cried out in pain before they were suddenly silenced.
Needless to say, any attempts by Austin to escape the cage have been put on hold by Raven's tactics as he lets go off the cage wall to clutch his balls in pain! Raven takes the opportunity to grab at Austin's legs before executing a Powerbomb off the cage wall and then goes for his first pin of the match as Dawn gets into position.
ONE!
TWO!
And Austin gets the shoulder up! Raven doesn't let up though as he mounts Austin and starts punching him in the face with the chain wrapped hand!
Simone: In case anyone's wondering why Raven isn't being disqualified for using that chain on Austin, remember the rules of a Steel Cage Match folks!
Adams: Only way to win is by pinfall, submission or escape! Everything else is fair game!
Raven's assault has left the Wolfslair member busted open to the point that the champ gets literal blood on his hands but he doesn't get up, that is until Austin catches the fist and locks Raven in a Triangle Choke taking the time to unwrap the chain from around Raven's fist in the process! Dawn gets into position as Austin slides the bloodied chain across the ring and it seems like the Triangle Choke will result in a new champion!
Simone: Raven went to the well one too many times with those chain assisted punches and now Austin is making him pay with that Triangle Choke!
Adams: Austin has it locked in tight, will we see a new champion or will Raven find a way out of this?
Raven is refusing to submit to Austin's submission hold even as Austin is hell bent on choking the life out of the champion! Raven thinks on his feet however and turns his head just enough so that he BITES AUSTIN'S LEG!
Simone: Pardon my French BUT DID RAVEN JUST BITE AUSTIN'S FUCKING LEG?!
Adams: I think we've just seen an early contender for next year's "WTF/Holy Shit Moment of the Year" Award!
Austin quickly releases the hold to put as much distance between himself and Raven as he can without escaping the cage and he has a look on his face that just screams "WTF is wrong with this guy" but upon seeing the chain that Raven brought into the cage earlier Austin grabs it before he starts whipping the champion with the chain! Dawn can only watch on in horror as Austin continues to whip Raven before he starts ramming him face first into the cage wall busting open the champion after a few shots.
Simone: Those two are going at it so hard you'd almost forget that there's a championship at stake!
Adams: Which makes sense when you remember that this feud started after Raven namedropped Austin and his Wolfslair teammates in a promo!
Austin seems satisfied that Raven is down for the count and he starts climbing the cage thinking that he has the match won, however this proves to be premature as Raven hits Austin with a leaping Enziguri and gets an idea as he spots the chain dangling from Austin's hand, he takes it, WRAPS IT AROUND AUSTIN'S NECK AND CLIMBS OVER THE CAGE WALL TO THE OUTSIDE WHERE HE STARTS PULLING, IT TAKES ALL OF RAVEN'S STRENGTH BUT HE MANAGES TO LEVITATE AUSTIN OFF THE GROUND!
Simone: GOOD LORD, RAVEN IS TRYING TO KILL AUSTIN!
Adams: AND IF AUSTIN BREAKS THE HOLD, RAVEN WILL LAND ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE CAGE!
Crowd: YOU SICK FUCK! YOU SICK FUCK! YOU SICK FUCK!
Dawn can only watch on helpless as Austin dangles there but Austin manages to get his foot on the top rope and uses the shift in momentum to unwrap the chain from around his neck and starts pulling Raven back into the cage, Raven tries to resist but Austin's strength advantage is too much as he is pulled back over the cage wall.
Simone: Why didn't Raven just let go off the chain? He could've won the match right there!
Adams: I don't think he even realized what Austin was doing until he was over the cage wall!
Austin drops to his hands and knees due to the toll the match has taken on him and Raven seems exhausted as well as he lies on top of the cage, but it's Raven that gets up first and the champion weighs his options, either attempt an escape or go for a big move, ultimately Raven goes for the latter option as he leaps off the cage and nails Austin with a massive elbow drop to the back leaving both men out!
Simone: Good lord, what will these men do to each other to win or retain the title?!
Adams: I think Austin and Raven have demonstrated that ten times over!
Both men are down once again but due to the rules of the match Dawn can do nothing but wait for either man to stir, eventually the champion makes the first move as Raven rolls Austin onto his back and goes for the pin!
ONE!
TWO!
And AUSTIN KICKS OUT despite everything that the two men have gone through! Raven gets back to his feet and signals for the end before he goes for his signature Double Hammerlock DDT but Austin blocks it before ramming Raven back first into the cage wall and then hitting a Northern Lights Suplex on Raven! Austin holds on for the pin!
ONE!
TWO!
And Raven kicks out! Austin sits up and upon seeing that he is near the cage door he goes over to it and yells for the stagehand to open the door.
Simone: Austin is looking to escape through the door!
Adams: Why not? He'll beat Raven either way and it'll be a lot quicker than trying to escape over the cage wall!
The stagehand complies with Austin's demands as he opens the door but Austin doesn't even get a chance to take a step towards the open door before Raven grabs him from behind and hooks him up for the Raven's Spire!
Simone: Raven's going for the Raven's Spire!
Adams: I don't think Austin can fight out of this!
Austin tries to get out of the Raven's Spire but Raven positions himself so that Austin will land on the chain and without a second's hesitation, HE HITS IT!
Simone: ALEXANDER WITH THE RAVEN'S SPIRE ONTO THE CHAIN!
Adams: AUSTIN IS OUT, STICK A FORK IN HIM, HE'S DONE!
Raven goes for the pin!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
DING DING DING!
Justin: HERE'S YOUR WINNER AND STILL SCW INTERNET CHAMPION, ALEXANDER RAVEN!
Simone: GOOD LORD, THAT WAS A BLOODBATH!
Adams: WE MAY HAVE JUST WITNESSED AN EARLY CONTENDER FOR MATCH OF THE YEAR!
Raven is given his title back and he celebrates as the cage is taken down.
We see Goth backstage as he is talking to Pussy Willow.
Willow: Goth, at the last Super Card you have won a Legend vs. Legend match against Chronic Chris Page. Rumors have it that you are considering retirement one day, can you tell me is there any other dream match that you would like to experience before that day would come??
Goth chuckles as he hears the question from Willow before nodding his head.
Goth: You want to know if there are some dream matches left for me?? Oh sure, there are some of them still left. The question I could ask is if the possible dream matches are willing to step foot in the ring with me after witnessing what I just did to Chris Page a few weeks ago. Because I was DOMINANT AS HELL.... I would almost say that I am more of a champion then our current champion Finn Whelan is, but I am sure that nobody is going to accept these words from a soon to be 46 year old veteran like me. There is nobody out there that I bet would step up against me right........
Goth doesn't finish his sentence as his concentration is distracted by someone as the camera turns around and we see current Roulette champion Bill Barnhart walk into the shot. Both men get nose to nose with each other as there is only silence between them before Bill smirks and walks off.....
Adams: Oh wow......
The scene opens backstage at Climax Control where we see Aussie Bombshell Krystal Wolfe looking at something on her phone, she is the challenger for Masque's World Bombshell Championship in tonight's Main Event but it's clear that she has plenty of other things on her mind.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: Krystal, there you are!
Krystal looks up from her phone to upon hearing the interviewer's voice and sees Ms. Rocky Mountains approaching her.
Krystal: Do I even need to ask why your approaching me? I've got the biggest match of my career lined up for tonight's Main Event!
Ms. Rocky Mountains: That is exactly why I'm here Krystal, but there is one thing I've been wondering, you said on Twitter that your wife is three months pregnant?
Krystal grins a bit before she lets out a sigh.
Krystal: I'm not sure how she did it, either she found a guy willing to do it the old-fashioned way for a lesbian couple, and to be fair she is a beautiful woman so I doubt she would've had any trouble finding a donor willing to do it that way, or through some sciencecy method that I'm not a hundred percent sure on the details off because that's obviously not my area of expertise but yeah, Makayla is pregnant with twin girls.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: She was able to tell that early?
Krystal nods before getting her phone up.
Krystal: Based on what she told me? They were able to tell by the fourteen-week mark thanks to the ultrasound, and both girls seem to be healthy.
Krystal says before showing Rocky the picture she was looking at which is revealed to be an ultrasound.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: So, when's the due date?
Krystal: Late May is looking most likely, though according to Makayla's mom twins tend to be born a bit early so who knows?
Krystal sighs before pocketing her phone.
Krystal: Let's cut to the chase because sitting here gushing over the fact that I'm going to be a mom to three daughters next year won't get me any closer to beating Masque tonight!
Ms. Rocky Mountains: Off course!
Krystal shakes her head as the Aussie thinks back to Masque's promo against her.
Krystal: Why on Earth did Masque say that I'm a Hero Academy Graduate? I know I spend a lot of time there but I was under the impression that the fact that I was a Go Gym Graduate was public knowledge?
Ms. Rocky Mountains: Maybe she get you confused with your cousin Cassie?
Krystal gives the interviewer a long, hard look.
Krystal: Cassie is still in her late teens, I just turned twenty-seven, Cassie is short and petite, I'm above average in height and not petite, and most importantly? Cassie was the first graduate of Hero Academy and Team Hero hadn't even opened a training school when I was a trainee at the Go Gym!
Ms. Rocky Mountains: Good point, not to mention the fact that Cassie works for the other SCW and she's been banned from this SCW.
Krystal: Yep, and I'm still working on getting that ban overturned.
Ms. Rocky Mountains: Even after Cassie insulted The Troll's mom last week?
Krystal: It's a work in progress, but back to our enigmatic champion, she wants to bring my now pregnant wife into this by asking how she feels about me heading into this match? Makayla was one of my main supporters when I made the decision to start my wrestling training and that hasn't changed since then, she knows the risks I undertake every time I step into the ring! Masque, you called me a wolf in sheep's clothing? Fine, but this wolf if going to take your most prized possession and make it her own, namely the World Bombshell Championship and as I turn the page on this chapter of my wrestling career? I'll kick off 2023 as the new World Bombshell Champion!
Krystal walks off as the scene fades.
Justin: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest scheduled for one fall is our main event and it is for the Bombshell Heavyweight championship of the world!!!!
The opening to "Stand My Ground" by Within Temptation hits the speakers and the lights dim, once the music kicks into high gear strobe lights flash around the entrance ramp before a single spotlight stops on Krystal as she kneels on one knee with her head down and hood up.
Justin: Introducing first, hailing from Adelaide, Australia she is "Down Under Thunder" Krystal Wolfe!
Once the lyrics hit Krystal removes her hood and looks out to the crowd before standing up and making her way down to the ring, she hops onto the apron before jumping over the ropes and into the ring where she removes the jacket and waits for her opponent.
Justin: And her opponent....
The arena is plunged into darkness. A single spotlight illuminates the entranceway, as the choral refrain asks, "Will the Circle be Unbroken?" Stepping into the brightness, Masque drops to her knees and with a head tipped upwards, stares into the rafters - arms held outwards. After a few seconds she brings her gloved palms together in an apparent moment of prayer.
Climbing back to her feet, Masque interlocks her fingers and makes her languid way down the ramp, hands pressed together against her chest. Periodically, she stops in front of a gesticulating, whooping member of the audience and offers them her hand. Some shrink back, others grasp it with theirs. All quieten as she turns her eyes on them.
Pausing at the ring steps, she drops to one knee and touches a hand from her heart onto the metalwork, running fingers against scuffed steel. Once she climbs onto the apron Masque raises a long leg up, hovers it just above the top rope and rolls through; using momentum to spin her entire body over and inside in a single fluid twirl. She lands sitting on the mat, hands clasped together again and looking up at the lights.
Justin: Hailing from Parts Unknown!! Standing in at 6'0 and weighing in at 129 pounds!!! She is the reigning Bombshell Heavyweight champion!! Masque!!!
DING DING DING!
The bell has rang as the smaller Krystal Wolfe charges out from the corner in an attempt to surprise the champion, charging in on her and knocking her into her corner with a running dropkick. She quickly manages to get to her feet and jumps the ropes before executing a Tornado DDT out of the corner and plants Masque hard on the canvas as Jacob Summers drops to the canvas to register the three count
ONE!
Masque benchpresses Krystal Wolfe off of her and over the top rope as the former Bombshell Roulette champion manages to land on the ring apron after grabbing the top rope. There she awaits Masque getting back to her feet as she jumps off the top rope and dives off for a Cross Body Block. But this offensive move is being caught by the world champion, who is walking around the ring with Krystal Wolfe in her arms as if she is as light as a feather.
Simone: I think Krystal miscalculated that move a bit
Masque drops Krystal with a Samoan Drop as she slowly sits up and looks around, she grabs the head of Krystal before driving series of punches to the face of the challenger as Jacob Summers starts to use the five count after warning the champion
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
FOUR!
Masque stops as she gets up and stares the official down, who respectfully backs off from the champion due to the imposing presence of the champion before she turns her attention back to Krystal Wolfe. She grabs her by the head and drives series of elbows in the forehead before twisting Krystal's head sideways while holding it in both hands, pushing the head in an unnatural position that forces a lot of pressure on Krystal's neck and shoulder muscles.
Adams: This is a position that you don't want to find yourself in against a powerful and deranged individual like masque.
Simone: Indeed Jason, she is capable of hurting her opponent in so many different ways.
We see Krystal trying to use her hands in order to pry some off the pressure off of her by pulling on the hands from the champion, but is unsuccessful in doing so. Masque quickly yanks the head even further in the painful position as the pain forces Krystal's hands to fall down in the painful reaction. Jacob Summers is keeping a close look on whether the challenger is willing to give in to the pain that the champion is inflicting upon her but refuses to give into the pain. We see the leg of Krystal nervously bouncing up and off the canvas as Masque suddenly releases the grip on the head, only to follow it up with a nerve hold on the trapezius area of her neck and shoulder. Feeling the crowd cheering her on as she is feeling a surge of energy running through her body as she slowly manages to get from a seated position towards a kneeling one. Therefore being able to drive a few elbow shots into the midsection of the champion before Masque yanks Krystal down hard on the canvas as she drops her on her back. She quickly runs to the ropes, executes a handstand before going for a Moonsault on Krystal, but the challenger has managed to roll away as the champion lands stomach first on the canvas.
Adams: Now Krystal needs to capitalize if she wants to have an opportunity to beat the champion!!!
Krystal can be seen on her stomach, trying to catching her breath while staring towards the champion who isn't moving. She slowly pushes herself upwards and quickly jumps towards the champion and hooks both legs as Jacob Summers goes for the three count
ONE!
TWO!
Masque gets her shoulder off the canvas, showing that she has plenty of fight left in her body as Krystal sits up. She quickly gets to her feet and quickly climbs the turnbuckles and executes a 450 splash on top of the champion before hooking a leg
ONE!
TWO!
Thr...
Masque kicks out as this time Krystal has come closer to a three count in comparison to previous attempts. She feels that she has a chance if she keeps up the pressure as she grabs Masque's head and lifts her back to her feet. Pushing the head of the champion between her legs as she sets her up to drop her down for a Piledriver. She tries to pull Masque upwards, but only manages to get her feet a few inches off the ground as the power and weight of the champion is too much for her. Masque reverses the move into a Backdrop. But only to have Krystal to reverse the reverse with a victory roll as she manages to use the champions momentum against her and roll her up in a pinning position
ONE!
TWO!
Thr..
Another kickout, both Masque and Krystal get up to their feet as Masque goes for a clothesline. But Krystal manages to duck underneath it before kicking Masque in the face with a superkick after the champion has come back off the ropes.
Simone: Will this be it???
Krystal goes for the cover, hooking both legs as Jacob Summers start to use the three count.
ONE!
TWO!
Thre....
But just before Jacob is about to hit his hand on the canvas for the third time he stops as he notices the left hand underneath the bottom rope. He points this out towards Krystal, who has gotten up and looked at him with a look of disbelief on her face.
Adams: Such a case of bad luck for Krystal, if Masque had been a bit more to the middle of the ring then perhaps she would have become the new champion!!
Simone: Indeed Jason, that would truly be the biggest upset so far!!!
Krystal shakes her head, trying to talk some confidence as she claps her hands in the air to get the crowd into the match while standing in the corner. There she measures the champion, while waiting for her to slowly get back to her feet as she is preparing for another superkick. Masque can be seen reaching for the ropes, shaking her head as the kick to her head has clearly shaken her. She slowly manages to pull herself up towards her feet before turning around as Krystal charges in on her and prepares herself to execute a second Superkick. Only to have the champion manage to catch the kick before spinning her around and then levels her with a massive clothesline. Masque slowly pushes herself off the canvas while breathing heavily underneath her mask, she grabs her artificial hand and shoves it in the mouth of the challenger for a few seconds before letting go and stares down the official. She quickly grabs the arm of Krystal and lifts her up to her feet once more. She wraps her arms around the body of Krystal Wolfe and delivers series of quick headbutts against the face before whipping Krystal into the corner and then prepares herself in the opposite corner before setting her up to charge in on Krystal and executes a handstand back elbow into the face of Krystal Wolfe. She grabs her by the head and charges out of the corner and sets her up for a Bulldog Headlock as she drives her face first into the canvas before rolling her over on her back and hooks her leg
ONE!
TWO!
Thr...
This time it is Krystal that shows she has the ability to endure a lot of pain as Masque quickly shoves her artificial hand into the mouth of Krystal for her finishing move
Simone: The Rapture!!!!
Krystal lifts her hands up towards the arm of Masque, trying to pull the hand out of her mouth in a futile attempt to withstand the painful hold from the champion. Masque is savagely screaming towards Krystal to surrender to her, but Krystal refuses to give in. Jacob Summers is asking whether she is willing to give in, but the Australian native is refusing to give in to the pain while her eyes are slowly fading to the pressure that she is enduring from the painful grip of the champion.
Adams: I think she is fading!!!
Jacob Summers notices the eyes closing, screaming towards her to see if she would react to him before calling for the bell as she doesn't.
DING DING DING!
Justin: Ladies and gentlemen!! The winner by submission and STILL Bombshell Heavyweight Champion of the World!!! Masque!!!!
Masque's music hits as the champion keeps the mandible claw locked into the mouth of Krystal as Jacob Summers is warning her to let go off the hold or else he would reverse the decision and award the victory towards Krystal Wolfe. This is the moment that Masque lets go and stares down Jacob Summers, demanding him to raise her hand in the air in victory before rolling out of the ring and walk to the back with her championship belt.
Adams: Krystal was so close to becoming the world champion but Masque is a monster!
Simone: I agree Jason! Sadly, that's all we have time for tonight, join us next week for some hard hitting action! For Jason Adams, I'm Belinda Simone saying goodnight everybody!
The scene fades to Masque holding the championship above her head.
THANK YOU! to everyone who wrote for this show!
