MAIN SHOW:

“Psycho in my Head” by Skillet plays as we see a shot of Selena Frost standing on the stage, about to the run to the ring. We then see shots of Bree Lancaster hitting someone with the Rectifier and Datura hanging upside down on the ropes, posing.

Maybe I'm just paranoid
Or maybe I'm just livin' a lie
Can't stop this screamin' voice
Or maybe I'm just sick inside

Shots of Kandis hitting Gratuitous on an opponent, before showing Rated X posing as SCW World Tag Team Champions. Katie Steward is next shown posing, before we see Cassie Wolfe hitting a dive off the top rope and Adam Brock standing on the stage, smiling. Shots of Chance Owens, Simon Lyman and Dancing Bear follow, superimposed over the Breakdown logo

This is the face
I hate the other side of me
Out of this cage
He breaks to take the life from me
Tell me, tell me, tell me
I'm not crazy

Syren is shown hitting Xander Valentine with the Total Makeover before showing Adam Allocco talking to the crowd. Glory Braddock is next shown hitting the London Plunge before we see The One Kirsten Scott proudly holding the SCW Television Championship. WASLEY is next shown as Kimberly Williams is seen smirking. The Breakdown logo flashes on the screen.

There's a psycho in my head
I'm closer to the edge
Makin' me feel like I'm livin' in misery, misery
Insane
These voices in my brain
Starting to feel like it's gonna be the death of me, death of me

Gavin Taylor hitting the Gavin Taylor lariat on an opponent is next, before we see Pro Kinneck attacking Sophie James at ringside. Konrad Raab punching Ace Marshall in a steel cage is shown next, before we see Alexis Quinne hitting a standing shooting star press. Lexy Chapel is then shown showing off Syren. Amy Chastaine posing follows.

There's a psycho in my, there's a psycho in my head

Shots of Selena Frost, Kandis, Adam Allocco, and Syren are shown before the Breakdown logo comes up on the screen.

We then cut to a live shot of the inside of the Scotiabank Saddledome in Calgary, Alberta, Canadea. The crowd cheers as pyro shoots out from the base of the stage. The display continues for a few moments before spotlights circle the arena and the cameras pan across the crowd for a few moments.

Sharper: “Fatal Fortunes, week one, is here as Breakdown rolls into Calgary!”

The cameras pan across the crowd for a moment longer before cutting to ringside and the announce position where Adam Sharper and Jonathan Knots sit.

Sharper: “Welcome to ringside. Adam Sharper here at ringside with Jonathan Knots. And as I mentioned, Fatal Fortunes is here.”

Knots: “Yeah. I’d run down the card, but I don’t have a damn clue what to say. Everything is random. People are going to find out their matches moments before they walk out. They’ll find out the stipulations the same way.”

Sharper: “A lot of chaos here. A lot could change. One thing we know for certain though is we’ll find out what champions will be joining The One Kirsten Scott and the US Champion in her Chamber Trios cash-in. Other than that, sit back and relax.”

Knots: “Time to find out how this begins!”

We cut to the big screen as we see a shot of a wheel of various matches spinning before flashing on matches like steel cage, underground, strap match, and others, before another ring spins showing various configurations: singles, tag, triple threat and so on. They both spin before the screen flashes and shows “Standard Singles Match.” The crowd boos a bit.

Knots: “Going to start off a bit safe here. But who will be in the ring.”

Brittany Lohan vs. La Pequena Luz

“Believe In Tomorrow” by Sunflower’s Garden begins to play as bright white lights begin flickering on and off on the stage in rhythm with the music. La Pequeña Luz skips out onto the stage with the kind of smile that could light up an entire room all on its own plastered to her face, dancing a bit to her theme song and waving her arms in an attempt to get the crowd pumped up, drawing cheers. The SCW Television and World Tag Team Championship belts sit over her shoulders. As she looks down towards the ring, the smile fades as something seems to flicker through her mind, but she’s snapped out of the trance as Amelia Blythe slowly makes her way out, placing a comforting hand on Luz’s shoulder.

Phillips: “The opening contest for Fatal Fortunes is a singles match, scheduled for onefall with a twenty minute time limit. First, on her way to the ring, accompanied by Amelia Blythe, from Tulancingo, Hidalgo, Mexico, she is one half of the SCW World Tag Team Champions, and the SCW Television Champion, La Pequena Luz!”

With a quick kiss to her cheek, Luz’s smile returns as the two proceed to lock hands before heading down to the ring, Amelia trying her best to keep up with Luz’s energetic skipping. Once they reach ringside, Luz pulls Amelia into a brief but passionate kiss before letting her go as she hops up onto the apron, grabbing the top rope before vaulting herself into a somersault into the ring, landing on her feet. Luz begins skipping around the ring, motioning once more for the fans to make some noise as they answer this call while Amelia takes her place in Luz’s corner on the floor, chuckling to herself and shaking her head at Luz’s energy. Luz removes her robe and hands it off to Amelia, who gives some last minute advice and words of encouragement as she does so. Luz also hands off her titles to Amelia.

Sharper: “La Pequena Luz starting off tonight and not with any titles on the line. So this is her random drawing as her in the pot of wrestlers.”

Knots: “Yeah, and with her holding two titles, she’s getting double booked at some point. That’s how this works. She’s going to have to be ready for that.”

Sharper: “So who awaits her…”

“I Am Machine” by Three Days Grace blasts over the loudspeakers as the lights in the arena go out and the fans instantly start to roar when they recognize whose theme song it is. Just a spotlight focuses on the curtains of the entrances the clips once again fades away into the words that read: “Bleeding you is more than just torment.”

The curtains slowly start to part as Brittany Lohan, slips through the curtain like a slithering snake. She looks like everything, but relaxed as her whole body is tensed looking like she’s ready to strike at the drop of a dime like a coiled cobra. Her icy eyes pan around the arena and the fans closest to the ramp and she snarls at a few of them get a little too vocal with her. Glory Braddock follows her to the ring.

Phillips: “Her opponent, accompanied by Glory Braddock, from San Diego, California, she is Brittany Lohan!”

With clenched fists, gritted teeth, and glaring icy eyes, Lohan starts to make her way down to the ring methodically. Lohan is taking slow, calculated, but powerful steps towards the ring. Her icy glare is so fixated on the ring that it would seem to appear that she doesn’t realize that the arena is nearly sold out. The way that she looks right now it might as well be empty for all she cares. As she nears the squared circle, Lohan slows down to a snails pace as she proceeds to walk around the perimeter of the ring with her eyes closed. When she’s satisfied she opens her eyes and reaches up to grab the bottom rope with her right hand and pulls herself up onto the apron only allowing one knee to touch before she rolls into the ring. Glory walks around the ring, going to Lohan’s corner.

With Lohan in the ring she gets on both of her knees, closing her eyes, as she lifts both of her arms up into the air. She holds that position for several seconds before she slows climbs up to her feet, but then as if a switch was flipped somewhere her entire presence changes. It intensifies as she starts to warm up by running off the ropes and doing some stretches as she waits for her victim of the night. Lohan’s video finishes up with the words: “…Just stand there and stare as my world crumbles.”

Sharper: “And talk about Fatal Fortunes delivering right off the bat. Brittany Lohan and Glory Braddock, after beating Statera last week, could they be the favourites to challenge the World Tag Team Champions? Either way, talk about a statement match."

Knots: “After what Lohan did to Datura last week, she put out a statement there. She may be looking to do the same to Luz here!”

The bell sounds as Luz and Lohan look at one another. They then start to circle. Glory looks at Amelia and vice-versa before Luz lunges at Lohan. Lohan goes to grab her, but Luz somersaults under. She hops up and turns and grabs the arm of Lohan as she spins around and ducks under and moves into a side headlock. Lohan grabs her and lifts her up and into the ropes before firing her off. Luz bounces off and Lohan steps up and drills her with a shoulder charge. Luz hits the mat and rolls over. She looks up and starts to get up. Lohan then heads over after her and pushes her back before rearing back and swinging. Luz ducks under and spins around. She backs up and Lohan turns and rushes at her. Luz jumps up and hits a monkey flip. Lohan hits the mat. She gets up and turns as Luz hits an overhead chop and then another before forearming Lohan in the jaw. She then grabs her arm and wrenches it. Lohan steps out and Luz then runs up the corner, but Lohan pulls her off. Luz lands on her feet and rolls through. She gets up and Lohan looks at her and scoffs.

Sharper: “Lohan just jerking Luz off the top rope.”

Knots: “Luz landed on her feet, but just found out that Lohan is going to give her a different type of challenge.”

Sharper: “She’s not going to be fancy. She’s just going to hurt.”

Luz then lunges at Lohan and forearms her in the jaw once and then again and again. Lohan falls to the corner. Luz goes to whip her across, but Lohan spins through and sends Luz in. Luz runs up the corner. She then goes for a moonsault. Lohan lunges forward. Luz lands behind Lohan and spins through. She then turns and Lohan runs at her, but Luz ducks under.

Sharper: “Luz through the air! Through the ropes with a flip dive!”

Knots: “And just on Lohan. Nearly into the crowd!”

Amelia looks on with concern as Luz rolls over. (2) She starts to get up and winces a bit. (3) She turns back and Lohan starts to get up and Luz grabs her and runs her into the ring, rolling her in. (4) Luz climbs onto the apron. She waits as Lohan gets to her feet, staggering forward only to turn around and Luz springboards to the top rope and hits a spinning heel kick to the jaw.

Luz runs after and Lohan scoops her up and spins her around and hits the snake eyes. Luz stumbles out and Lohan turns and runs out and drills her with a clothesline.

Sharper: “Lohan runs out and drills Luz. Just all of that clothesline.”

Knots: “Luz can run all she wants, but Lohan is going to just stop her. Like hitting a brick wall. One that throws bricks at you. At your head.”

Luz rolls over and Lohan clubs her hard in the back. Luz rolls over in pain. She starts to get up and Lohan knees her in the ribs. She then turns and hits a huge hip throw across the ring.

Phillips: “Here is your winner, via pinfall, La Pequena Luz!”

Sharper: “In a partial preview of a Tag Team Championship match that Twisted & Sadistic definitely wants, La Pequena Luz comes out on top of Brittany Lohan!”

Knots: “Glory is disappointed. Brittany will be when she gets up. But Light in the Darkness start us off with a win.”

Luz is handed her titles by Blythe and Blythe raises Luz’s arm. The two stand in the ring before we cut to see Ravyn Taylor watching from the floor by the stage.

Sharper: “And Ravyn Taylor also watching. Dark Fantasy would love to get a rematch.”

Knots: “A lot of eyes, a big target, on the champions!”

Luz and Blythe continue to celebrate before the scene cuts away.

Jessica Winters walks through the backstage area as Deanna Frost is stretching in her locker room. Jessica knocks on the door and peaks inside. She then heads over.

Jessica: “Deanna-“

Deanna stops and smiles.

Deanna: “Hi Jessica, just getting ready. If…when…”

Jessica: “I know. I won’t take much time. Just curious if you’ve seen Selena…”

Deanna sighs.

Deanna: “I know nothing.”

Jessica: “Nothing? Didn’t travel together. We have people looking for the bus.”

Deanna: “Sorry. I had an appearance before and we travelled separately. I’ve not yet seen her. Just…I don’t know…”

Jessica: “Oh…well…sorry to bother you about it. I know it gets under your skin. Just with her impending return-“

Deanna: “No, I understand. I just hope some people won’t be disappointed.”

Jessica: “Me too.”

Jessica nods.

Jessica: “Good luck…if you’re drawn tonight.”

Deanna nods as Jessica heads off.

COMMERCIALS

“This is How a Heart Breaks” plays throughout the arena as the crowd roars. A few moments pass before CHBK walks out from the back in a suit. He looks around and nods before heading down to the ring.

Sharper: “CHBK, the acting COO of SCW, on his way to the ring. Bringing back Fatal Fortunes, and he has to be intrigued by this night.”

Knots: “Yeah, and if the first match is any indication, tonight and next week are going to be lit as the kids say.”

CHBK walks down to the ring and goes up the steel steps. He walks along the apron, wipes his feet, and steps into the ring. He then walks across the ring and goes over to the corner. Phillips hands him a microphone. CHBK turns and walks over to the middle of the ring. His music fades out as he looks around.

CHBK: “Welcome everyone to night one of Fatal Fortunes!”

The crowd cheers. CHBK walks around the ring.

CHBK: “Everyone will compete between tonight and next week. Every stipulation is random. Every championship will be on the line. Everything can change and with the spin of a wheel.”

The crowd cheers a bit more.

CHBK: “It’s just the beginning of how SCW is closing out 2023. And how SCW will be setting the tone for the new year.”

CHBK walks around the ring.

CHBK: “Tonight, next week, Fatal Fortunes. And as usual, the End of the Year Special will see our usual attractions including the Open Invitational where anyone can enter, inside SCW, outside of SCW, and the winner will receive not only $250 000, but a brand new 2024 Aston Martin DB12.”

The crowd roars a bit.

CHBK: “And of course, you, the fans, will determine who will challenge for the SCW World Championship…who will receive their first one on one World Championship shot and the fan vote goes live on Monday, December 11 and we will announce the winner on the final Breakdown of 2023 on December 21.”

CHBK pauses as the crowd cheers. Shots of fans holding posters for Autumn Valentine, Derek Adonis, Sarah Wolf, and Deanna Frost are shown.

CHBK: “But on December 21, we will also see a notable match, another match that could change everything as Kirsten Scott cashes in her Trios Tournament contract to bring the Chamber Match to Breakdown, where she will challenge for the SCW United States Champion against whomever the champion may be…but two other champions will have their titles on the line as well. And that’s not all. To complete our knowledge of this match, and what will be happening, please allow me to welcome at this time…The One, Kirsten Scott!”

The crowd looks on and gives a mixed reaction before the arena goes dark and there the crowd begins to buzz wondering who is coming out. As "Sonne" by Rammstein begins to play, lasers begin to shoot across the arena to the beat, and a spotlight illuminates The Oracle on the entry way, back to the crowd, holding fingers up with the opening count-up.

Eins...

Zwei...

Drei...

Vier...

Fünf...

Sechs...

Sieben...

Acht...

Neun...

As she holds up the ninth finger, the song stops the countdown at its crescendo, and she throws her arms out to the side...

AUS!

Spotlights begin to swirl around the arena as the song continues, and "The One" Kirsten Scott walks out from backstage. Scott heads to the ring, ignoring the fans. She storms to the ring.

Sharper: “Kirsten Scott, the last to cash in, waiting until the last moment.”

Knots: “We’ve heard nothing about the 2024 Trios Tournament yet.”

Sharper: “I’m sure we will soon, but for now, we know on December 21, The One, Kirsten Scott will have a massive match and one that has been more motivated by recent events. Her not being placed in the chamber at Under Attack. Her desire to push out the old guard.”

Scott walks over to the ring and grabs the ropes, pulling herself to the apron. She then steps inside and walks right up to CHBK.

Sharper: “And I don’t think her and CHBK are exactly on good terms because of all that.”

Scott looks at CHBK before taking the microphone from the COO of SCW. She then steps back and walks around the ring.

Scott: “So you want me to fill some blanks in…Happily!”

Scott looks at the crowd.

Scott: “See, I’m…well…some people are going to regret what they’ve been doing as of late. See, I should’ve been in that Chamber match…”

Scott looks at CHBK and glares at him.

Scott: “But fine…here I stand and whether Deanna is across from me or not after Fatal Fortunes, I don’t care. Because I am coming to take the US Championship. And we’ll see three titles on the line and-“

The chords of "People Like Us" by Kelly Clarkson fill the arena. A few moments pass before Deanna Frost walks out from the back, holding her US championship. She heads down the rampway as Scott turns and watches her. Frost reaches the ring and glares at Kirsten Scott before walking around and going over to Jason Phillips and requesting a microphone. He hands her one and Frost takes it before going up the steel steps.

Frost: “Oh, don’t worry, Kirsten. I’ll be across the ring from you.”

The crowd roars.

Scott: “I hope so.”

Frost: “Because I’m ready for whatever comes my way tonight or next week. I will do everything to walk out SCW United States Champion again, not just because I’m proud to hold this title, but because I want to finish this with you!”

Frost looks right at Scott.

Frost: “From breaking my arm back in the Chamber last year, to all of the crap you’ve said about me, about Selena, to then now holding this over my head this year when you just couldn’t get it done at Under Attack!”

The One steps up as she looks at Frost.

Frost: “And despite all of this, you need this show. To put in the Chamber. You need to drag in four others. It could’ve been you and I and we could’ve ended this.”

Scott: “Or I could force the change I’ve been at the forefront of since I got here!”

Scott looks at Frost and looks down at her.

Scott: “Because on December 21…the World and Underground Champions will join you. And you better hope the champions don’t get swept, because if they do, no rematch for any of you. The new guard will be coming. And I’ll announce who will get their shots next week after I see who is still standing after Fatal Fortunes!”

Scott drops the microphone and looks at CHBK before turning back and exiting the ring. “Sonne” by Rammstein plays throughout the arena again. She steps through the ropes and drops down to the floor. She then starts to walk to the back. Deanna Frost looks at her and then to CHBK before CHBK watches The One leave.

Sharper: “Not only the US Champion, but the World and Underground Titles on the line.”

Knots: “Going after James Evans and Asher Hayes! The Old Guard!”

Sharper: “Who will be the new guard? And will the new guard be holding a title? There’s clearly a team aspect too, regarding rematches. The One Kirsten Scott developing a match around the object of her ire as of now with some huge ramifications for SCW into 2024!”

Scott heads to the back as the Fatal Fortunes logo comes up on the screen. We cut to the big screen as we see a shot of a wheel of various matches spinning before flashing on matches like steel cage, underground, strap match, and others, before another ring spins showing various configurations: singles, tag, triple threat and so on. They both spin before the screen flashes and shows “Singles Christmas Street Fight.” The crowd roars a bit.

Sharper: “And we return, a Christmas Street Fight, here in Calgary! And it’s next!”

The scene fades to black.

Jessica Winters stands backstage with the SCW World Champion at the SCW interview area. Hayes stands with the SCW World Championship and shakes his head.

Winters: “Big news to say the least. Asher, we were going to ask you about Fatal Fortunes, but if you survive, you’ll be in the Chamber in the One Kirsten Scott’s Trios cash-in.”

Hayes: “Gotta love all of the people trying to get into my business. Simon Lyman…goodbye. You’re gone. Xander wants a shot. Couldn’t beat me clean. Holly Adams says this is because of her. Nothing outside of me realizing how much better I am than anything you can offer…that’s all you can take for credit. And now Scott saying I’m the old guard. I’m what she wishes she was. To fight for over a decade and a half to get to this point. She’s jealous as she can’t even beat her white whale. Well…”

Hayes turns to Jessica.

Hayes: “Tell her, tell the world, tell Kandis if she can get up off the bed in mourning to understand it…or avoid getting her ass kicked by Konrad Raab long enough, I’m going to get through whoever is put in front of me for this title in Fatal Fortunes. I’m not letting this go. I’m the only thing this pathetic place has. The only thing actually fresh. And the One…well, this is the ONE time you’re going to get this close to me. After this, stay the hell out of my face!”

Hayes turns and heads off.

Winters: “Let’s go to the ring.”

GiGi Aries vs. Jaina Lancaster

Christmas Street Fight

The scene opens at ringside where we see a Christmas tree set up at the end of the entrance way. Presents are all around it.

Sharper: “Tis the season.”

Knots: “Yeah, to beat someone up with presents!”

Sharper: “A Christmas Street Fight chosen, so I’m curious what this is going to be and who will be involved.”

We hear the sound of a door open that rings out over the arena as we then hear the words.

|| WELCOME ||
|| TO ||
|| THE ||
|| HAÜS OF NIRVANA ||

‘Best Friend’ by Saweetie and Doja Cat begins to play as the arena goes dark except for a spotlight as from beneath the stage rises GiGi Aries sitting cross legged dressed in all white tunic and pants combo as he is joined by Sammy Thomas Davies and Brandi Lynn Tucker as they walk out from the back. GiGi sits with his new book 356 Easy Steps To Nirvana prominently displayed in in his hand. Samuel has an 8x10 of Holly Adams in his hand. GiGi smiles and points to the picture as he has an eerie smile upon his face. GiGi Aries jumps to his feet as starts toward the ring with shuffling and snapping to the beat of the song. Sammy Thomas Davies and Brandi Lynn Tucker follow him. The couple hand out Haüs of Nirvana pamphlets to the fans. They do this as they make their way down toward the ring. GiGi Aries makes it to the apron as he swiftly jumps on the apron and faces the crowd. He extends his arms outward holding his book in his hand as Brandi Lynn Tucker and Samuel Davis sit on each side below him. GiGi then yells:

“356 EASY STEPS TO NIRVANA IS AVAILABLE EVERYWHERE”

He then looks at the camera and says “102nd On the New Yorker’s Best Seller List” before he cackles out before flipping into the ring as he takes a seat on the top turnbuckle and begins to meditate before the match. As Brandi Lynn Tucker who takes a swig of her flask and Samuel Davis joined him on each side of the apron with Sammy continuing to hold the 8x10 of Holly Adams. GiGi continues to point at the picture and mouth my best friend..

Phillips: “The following contest is a Christmas Street Fight. First, on his way to the ring, hailing from Black Rick Desert, Nevada, accompanied by the Haüs of Nirvana, he is the Spiritual Advisor of The Holly Adams Brand Trademarked! Giovanni “GiGi” Aries!”

Sharper: “GiGi Aries in the ring. Samuel Davis with him along with Brandi Lynn Tucker.”

Knots: “We’ve not seen GiGi on his own in a while. Someone is going to get a free calming session!”

[You hit me like a lightning strike from the sky
Now everything you do can make me ignite]

"Supercharged" fills the arena as Jaina Lancaster steps out onto the stage and looks around with a smile as the music picks up and the chorus kicks in.

Phillips: “And his opponent, from New Orleans, Louisiana, Jaina Lancaster!”

[Hey now, you can be my breakdown, setting the fire
You're my bizarre, I'm supercharged]

Jaina heads down the ramp, the confident smile still on her face. She stops at the Christmas tree and sees GiGi in the ring. She then looks around as we see Samuel Davis starting to sneak around the ring. Jaina notices this and grabs a present and turns and throws it at Davis. Davis goes down as it catches him in the head. Jaina then grabs presents and starts to throw some of them into the ring. GiGi swats a box down before then doing the same with another box. We then see one thrown at BLT as she runs around. She goes down. Jaina then grabs another “gift,” what is clearly a gift-wrapped steel chair. She then rips the paper off as she heads to the ring. GiGi shakes his head.

Sharper: “Jaina ready for war. Amy Chastaine’s daughter, Jaina, entering the ring.”

Knots: “She’s an interviewer!”

Sharper: “Not for tonight. She’s a trained wrestler too and isn’t going to let the numbers get her!”

GiGi then steps up as Jaina rolls into the ring. She gets up and GiGi grabs the chair and pulls on it. Jaina falls to the mat and rolls over. She gets up and GiGi then throws the chair down before Jaina gets up and forearms him in the jaw once and then again and again before pushing him toward the corner. Jaina turns and runs across the ring, stopping at the corner before running back and GiGi nails her with a chop. Jaina hits the mat. She gets up and GiGi hits a Mongolian chop and then chops her across the chest. GiGi then grabs Jaina and hits a hip throw.

Sharper: “GiGi using his size and strength.”

Knots: “No weapons though. He’s calm. This is to help Jaina work through her demons. And with her family…”

Sharper: “Stop it!”

Jaina rolls over and crawls to the chair and GiGi runs over and steps on the chair. Jaina then turns and nails GiGi in the stomach. Jaina then hits a jawbreaker. GiGi staggers back. Jaina runs into the ropes, but then, Samuel Davis grabs her legs and pulls her to the floor. The crowd boos. Davis then grabs Jaina and goes to throw her into the tree, but instead, Jaina spins through and hip throws Davis not the tree, knocking it over. The crowd roars. Jaina then goes to one of the presents and lifts it up, revealing it to be a bit heavier. She then turns and runs to the ring. GiGi runs over and stomps her in the back as she slides in. He stomps her again and again before pulling her up and then hits a snap suplex. He then sits her up and starts to go for a crossface chickenwing. Jaina, however, fights and tries to get to the ropes. She then hooks the ropes with her feet and pulls herself to the ropes. GiGi lets go and Jaina rolls to the floor. She then turns and Aries heads forward, but Jaina grabs GiGi by the legs and pulls him down. Jaina rolls in, but GiGi sits at the ropes. He gets up and Jaina grabs the box that she brought in and turns and nails GiGi in the shoulder. GiGi goes down before Jaina slams it on his back. Jaina backs up and peels back the paper before holding up a book “To a Better You, the Holly Adams Brand Package B.” The crowd roars as Jaina smirks and throws the book onto GiGi.

Knots: “Hey! I have that!”

Sharper: “And Jaina just passed on the key lessons to GiGi Aries!”

Jaina then looks around and turns to some of the boxes she threw in earlier and then grabs one and shakes it. She then opens it up and turns, dumping out Legos all over the ring. The crowd roars. Jaina turns to the other box and does the same, shaking it first, before then ripping it open and dumping out more Lego. She then turns as GiGi gets up, while BLT tries to help Davis up in the entrance way. Jaina forearms GiGi in the jaw once and then again before turning and grabbing the steel chair. Jaina turns and Aries boots the chair back into her face. Jaina falls over. She then gets up and turns and swings, but Aries hooks her arm under his arm. He then grabs the other arm and hits an arm-trap overhead suplex onto the Lego. Jaina writhes in pain and rolls over.

Sharper: “The suplex into the lego.”

Knots: “We all know how much that sucks. Jaina…this is why you don’t want kids…or an adult kid!”

Jaina rolls over in pain and GiGi gets up and turns and he grabs Jaina and gutwrenches her up and suplexes her again on the Lego. Jaina rolls over in pain. GiGi then looks at Jaina as Jaina then crawls to the ropes. She turns and Aries hits another Mongolian Chop. He then chops her again. Aries grabs the steel chair and unfolds it and places it in the ring. Aries then turns and Aries elbows him in the jaw. She then jumps to the middle rope and dives forward with a spinning heel kick, sending Aries into the chair and backward. The crowd ohs. Aries rolls over as Jaina gets up. Aries slowly gets up and Jaina then grabs his head and runs up the corner spins through with a tornado DDT into the lego.

Sharper: “Aries tastes the lego as Jaina Lancaster risks more pain to do more damage.”

Knots: “That wasn’t kind. He was putting down the chair to talk. Jaina keeps attacking him!”

Jaina rolls over and winces. Davis staggers to the ring and Jaina runs over and hits a dropkick to the face. Davis falls back into BLT. At this point, the crowd roars as Amy Chastaine heads out from the back. She runs down to the ring and grabs the tree that was set up and lifts it up and throws it at Davis and BLT, knocking them down.

Sharper: “Amy Chastaine coming out and helping her daughter. Getting rid of the two on the floor!”

Jaina smiles as Amy looks at her and Jaina turns only for Aries to kick her in the ribs and hit the Third Eye. He then goes for the pin.

1!

2!

Jaina kicks out. GiGi rolls over and turns and goes to the steel chair. He folds it back up and looks around, shaking his head. Jaina rolls over, slowly starting to get to her feet. Aries then turns and holds the chair up and turns to Jaina, but Jaina then lunges and hits a superkick, kicking the chair back into Aries’s face!

Sharper: “Superkick! Chair knocked back into the face of Aries!”

Knots: “He’s just trying to help!”

Sharper: “He was going to hit Jaina!”

Knots: “You don’t know that!”

Aries staggers back and Jaina then runs over to the corner. She looks back and climbs up. She goes for the Blackout, but GiGi moves out of the way. Jaina hits the mat and gets up. Aries grabs her and goes for a German suplex, but Jaina elbows him right in the head as he gets her up and Aries German’s her into the Lego. Aries bridges up, but struggles to get his shoulders up, dazed from the Jaina’s elbow.

1!

2!

3!

The crowd ohs and boos as Amy looks on. Jaina rolls over, down on the mat. Aries remains down. The bell sounds.

Phillips: “Fans, both competitors’ shoulders were pinned to the mat. As a result, this match is a draw!”

Sharper: “Jaina caught Aries under the eye. I don’t know if that stunned him, but both were pinned!”

Knots: “Rejecting his teachings!”

Sharper: “And Jaina survives this.”

Amy heads around the ring and goes over to the ropes. She reaches in and helps Jaina out of the ring. Aries rolls over, wincing a bit. We see a cut across the bridge of GiGi’s nose as he sits up. The crowd boos a bit as the scene cuts away.

We cut backstage to see Matt Hodges arguing to Murad and Rasul, the Feast of the Ascension. The sounds of yelling drown out all else as Hodges then looks at them.

Hodges: “Not ready for this. I’m not letting you ruin everything because you want to rush in.”

Murad yells in Dagestani at Hodges as Hodges turns and shakes his head and fires back.

Hodges: “You wanted me to lead you to greatness. So you’re going to listen to me. I know!”

The yelling continues as we then cut away.

COMMERCIALS

We cut to the big screen as we see a shot of a wheel of various matches spinning before flashing on matches like steel cage, underground, strap match, and others, before another ring spins showing various configurations: singles, tag, triple threat and so on. They both spin before the screen flashes and shows “Fatal Four Way Casket Match.” The crowd cheers.

We then cut to the stage as a wooden casket is shown being moved down from the back.

Sharper: “A four way casket match?!”

Knots: “Well that’s all well and good. Are we stuffing everyone into that one?!”

Sharper: “Well, now the question is whether the randomizer through the crew for a loop.”

The casket continues to make its way to the ring, ring crew members pushing it down.

Katie Steward vs. Syren vs. Alistaire Allocco vs. Derek Adonis

Fatal Four Way Casket Match

Oh, she's sweet but a psycho
A little bit psycho
At night she's screamin'
"I'm-ma-ma-ma out my mind"

The arena lights dim down and pink light shine on the stage. “Sweet but Psycho” by Ava Max plays as The Queen of Queens and Goddess of Desire Katie Steward steps out on the stage. She walks her beautiful white and gold religious ring robe that is popelike and spins around in a circle showing it off the crowd. TJ Johnson walks out onto the stage with Katie and the two nod to on another before Katie continues her walk to the ring with her arms out and his hands at shoulder length.

Phillips: “The following contest is a fatal four way casket match. The rules are as follows. Once a competitor has been placed in a casket and the lid closed, they are eliminated. The last person remaining outside of a casket will be declared the winner. First, on her way to the ring, accompanied by TJ Johnson, from Hollywood, California, she is the Goddess of Desire, Katie Steward!”

Katie walks around the ring and up the ring steps carefully and across the apron. TJ runs up after her and holds open the ropes for her to enter the ring. Katie walks to the center of the ring and she disrobes for the crowd. She shows off her wrestling attire. TJ takes her robe and exits the ring and Katie to her corner.

Sharper: “Katie doesn’t look too thrilled. No title shot. No tag match. And I’m sure she’ll have a problem with this being a casket match.”

Knots: “Are they trying to say that her career is over and it should be dead and buried?”

Sharper: “I’m sure the randomizer took that approach. I mean Skynet and all.”

Knots: “I’m serious!”

Sharper: “Are you?”

Rise!!!!

Look deep into his eyes!

Rise!!!!

Look deep into his eyes, that's where the fire lies!

The spotlights shine forth from the stage, bathing the entire arena in blinding white lights corresponding with a verse of “Eyes Like Fire” by Collision of Innocence. A figure stands in front of the curtains; his arms are extended horizontally, and his legs are spread. His back is turned to the audience. His presence incites a chorus of cheers from the crowd. As the bright lights start to dim, you can tell the man is wearing pure white tights. A blood-red sleeveless coat stretched from his defined torso down to his equally bright white boots. The SCW Adrenaline Championship is around his waist. Pyros explode around the entranceway, timed perfectly for Alistaire Allocco to kick out his leg to turn to face the crowd as the chorus of his theme kicks in:

Descending on a cloud, For all the world to see

Dressed in white with strength and majesty

Robe dripping red with eyes like fire

Sword held up high behold the white horse rider

Cries of the martyrs he has heard your voices

Now the day nears they will pay for their choices

Look up until the day and don't ever be afraid

For vengeance isn't yours, In time they will face their grave

Phillips: “Next, from Rochester, New York, he is Alistaire Allocco!”

He begins to walk down the ramp with his dark eyes staring intently at the ring before him. He marches down with purpose, waving and smiling to the children in the crowd. He stops at the bottom of the ramp for a moment before launching forward, sliding into the ring.

Descending on a cloud, For all the world to see

Dressed in white with strength and majesty

Robe dripping red with eyes like fire

Sword held up high behold the white horse rider

Once in the ring, he discards his coat by tossing it to the referee. He’s in the center of the ring, he hops up and down, switching his weight behind his feet as he stands. As the song begins to fade out, Alistaire stares at his goal.

I can hear it, I can hear it, I can hear it now

I can feel it, I can feel it, I can feel it now

Knots: “Now not even declaring Alistaire Allocco the Adrenaline Champion!”

Sharper: “He’s holding the title, but we still don’t have an official confirmation from CHBK or SCW officials about whether they’ll recognize Alistaire as the champion or if it’s still Adam.”

Knots: “At least we know this isn’t for the title!”

KABLAAAAAAAAAAM!!!

The opening horns of “Weird Al” Yankovic’s “Wanna B Ur Lovr” begin to play out over the crowd, meaning the crowd is about to be graced by the presence of a living love machine – the Man-Mountain known as Derek Adonis!

And there he is! Stepping out amidst spotlights of every colour of the rainbow alongside his new KABLAMpress, Candy Adonis, the man’s outfit radiates light against a few blacklights slipped in, and he is completely oblivious to his detractors, basking in the glow of the spotlight as he begins his sensual stride towards the ring.

Phillips: “Next, from Las Vegas, Nevada, accompanied by Candy Adonis, he is Man Mountain, Derek Adonis!”

If you’re so inclined, you should check out the lyrics to the song that Adonis is entering to, because they really paint their own tapestry almost as well as the man himself is able to, stopping at various points on his walk down towards the ring to hit on some of the more attractive females in the area – without caring about the potential of boyfriends, husbands or security. He’ll take their hand, whisper sweet nothings to them (and, if you’ve seen girls at shows put in this kind of embarrassing situation, these do the same as all of them – and just laugh) and plant his lips ever so gently upon said hand before moving farther down the ramp.

As the chorus comes around, Adonis steps up the ramp, taking each step with added emphasis. He gets onto the apron and after winking at a particularly friendly female (probably the most receptive to advances of earlier), pulls himself through the ropes. He gyrates just a little bit in the ring (it’s better than his twerking – trust me) as his music fades.

Sharper: “Man Mountain out next. A unique collection of competitors here.”

Knots: “We’re definitely going to need more than one casket. Try to stuff two people in one if Adonis is going in there!”

The lights in the arena plunge into darkness. A pulsing sound akin to a heartbeat plays out across the PA system as the fans cheer. The heartbeat gets faster before “Groupie” by Cassie Steele hits the PA system. After a few moments Syren comes through the curtain, accompanied by Lexy Chapel. Syren pauses on the stage, looking out at the fans cheering, as Lexy waves her arms, trying to get them to cheer even louder for her client.

Sinfully Seductive

Captivatingly Corrupt

DARK FANTASY

Syren walks down the ramp. She jumps up onto the apron before climbing the turnbuckles on the outside and waving her hands to get the fans fired up. As the camera gets closer to her, she shouts at the camera before pointing out at the fans. The camera switches to Lexy who yells about her client and the ‘Lexy Nation’ appreciating them.

Phillips: “And finally, being accompanied by Lexy Chapel and representing LexyCorp International, hailing from Los Angeles, California, this is Syren!”

Syren smiles before leaping over the top rope and dropping to her knees in the ring, posing with both her arms outstretched, palms facing up, and holding up the Adrenaline title with her right hand. Lexy rolls into the ring and stands over her, pointing down at her client. She offers both her hands to Syren, pulling her up. Syren takes off her ring jacket and hands that to Lexy. She climbs up on the middle rope, posing for a moment and then jumping back down and standing in her corner with Lexy as her music fades out.

Sharper: “After bringing Autumn Valentine back, it’s Syren who is in the ring with potentially the Adrenaline Champion. But as mentioned, no title on the line in this one.”

Knots: “Lexy is probably losing her mind.”

Sharper: “Right now, she’s focused on Syren. That’s a bit of a difference after she’s been more focused on Autumn.”

The bell sounds as the casket at ringside opens and Derek Adonis looks over into it, only for him to turn as Katie nails him with the Most Beautiful Superkick. The crowd ohs as Adonis goes down. Syren turns and hits Katie with a superkick. The crowd ohs. Alistaire then turns and grabs Syren from behind. He hits a Greco-Roman takeover and then turns and grabs Syren in a front face lock. He hoists her up and hits a single underhook suplex. Syren rolls over as Adonis then runs out and attempts a superkick of his own, only catching Alistaire in the ribs. He stumbles. Adonis then clubs him in the back once and then again before grabbing Alistaire. They fight before Syren and Katie both look at each other and then to Alistaire and Adonis and both throw superkicks at them. The crowd ohs.

Sharper: “And the superkick soiree beginning early!”

Knots: “And everyone getting them. Syren and Katie up though!”

Katie then turns and goes for one on Syren. Syren ducks. They stop and turn and Syren goes for another superkick. Katie ducks and then they run into the ropes, bouncing off and then catch each other with a double clothesline. The crowd ohs. As they roll away, we see crew members moving two more caskets, seemingly having prepared for this eventuality, and starts to move them to the ring.

Sharper: “And there are the other caskets!”

Knots: “Alright! Let’s get them stuffed in there! Who’s dead…metaphorically speaking!”

Katie and Syren stir as Alistaire and Adonis move to the ropes. Adonis gets up and falls into the corner. Katie then grabs Syren and turns and throws her through the ropes into the casket. Syren rolls over as Lexy starts to lose her mind. Syren starts to stir as Katie reaches over and grabs the top and goes to close it, but Syren blocks it. Katie lifts it up and Syren forearms Katie. Katie staggers back and turns to Alistaire who grabs her and hits a side belly to belly suplex. Alistaire gets up and turns as Syren rolls into the ring. Alistaire then grabs her and pulls her up before he hooks her up and hits a vertical suplex. Syren rolls over and Alistaire gets up only for Adonis to run at him and hit a body avalanche, knocking him down.

Sharper: “Adonis running over Allocco.”

Knots: “Well he does do that. The man is bigger than anyone in there.”

Sharper: “Unless we include an ego.”

Knots: “Hey!”

Katie rolls over and moves to the corner. Adonis then gets up and pulls Allocco into the corner. Adonis then stomps him in the chest a couple of times before turning around and running at Syren and clotheslining her down. He then turns and sees Katie who walks over to him. Adonis hoists her up and hits a fall forward slam. Adonis gets up and looks around.

Adonis: “KABLAM!”

The crowd shouts it out too. He then runs at Allocco as he gets up and sandwiches him in the corner. Adonis then grabs him and pushes him through the ropes and into the casket. The crowd roars. Adonis then turns as he grabs Syren, but Syren hits the Golden Blonde. Adonis stumbles back to the ropes. Katie then lunges and hits another superkick. Adonis falls back through the ropes and into the casket. Katie then crawls over and reaches up as Alistaire Allocco, having come out of the casket, closes the casket. The bell sounds.

Phillips: “Derek Adonis has been eliminated!”

Sharper: “Katie was going to close it. Alistaire Allocco instead getting the nod there. He got out of that casket in time.”

Knots: “Katie cracked him though.”

Sharper: “Look out! Look out!”

Syren dropkicks Katie up and over the top rope and she lands on the casket with Adonis inside. Alistaire now starts to move some furniture, moving the casket with Adonis in it and away from against the ring. He pushes it back before turning and grabbing the second casket and moves it into position. He then opens it up, but while this happens, Syren climbs to the top rope and Alistaire turns as Syren dives off with a crossbody, off the top, onto Alistaire, to the floor. The crowd ohs.

Sharper: “Syren! From the top!”

Knots: “Is she nuts!”

Sharper: “Dodging caskets but a direct hit on Alistaire Allocco!”

Knots: “Maybe she’s the Allocco Assassin, not Autumn?!”

Syren rolls off and winces. Alistaire grabs at her. Syren gets up and Alistaire tries to pull himself up. Syren forearms him before Katie steps up on the casket she’s on and hits a praying moonsault, taking both down. The crowd roars. Katie rolls over. We then see Candy opening the casket with Adonis in it, now that Katie is off, and helping him out. Adonis falls to a knee and Candy turns and places her chest in Adonis’s face. Adonis looks up and slowly starts to recover, enough for her to comfort him while leading him to the back.

Sharper: “Adonis being helped out.”

Knots: “I think he’ll be fine.”

Sharper: “While Katie, Syren and Alistaire still fighting it out here.”

Katie gets up and grabs Syren. She then lifts her up and drives her face first into the casket near the ring. Syren pops back and Katie grabs her and throws her into it again. She then turns and runs her shoulder first into the casket that Adonis was in. Katie then turns and grabs Syren starts to lift her up, trying to place her into the casket Adonis had gotten out of. Syren goes up and leans on the edge. She kicks her legs and Katie pushes her in before Alistaire comes up behind Alistaire and grabs Katie and spins her around and runs her to the ring and rolls her in. Alistaire, seemingly unaware that Syren was stuffed into the casket, goes after Katie. He rolls into the ring.

Sharper: “Alistaire going after Katie. I don’t know if he missed Syren being put into that casket.”

Knots: “The lid is up. It just needs to be closed! And Syren could be out!”

Katie gets up as TJ paces on the floor. Alistaire slides in and gets up and runs at Katie. Katie swings, but Alistaire ducks under and grabs her in a waistlock and hits a release German suplex. The crowd ohs. Katie rolls over in pain. Alistaire gets up and grabs Katie and drags her up and hooks her up and hits a release fisherman’s suplex. Alistaire rolls over as the camera catches Syren climbing out of the casket as Lexy is nearby, willing her on. Alistaire turns and grabs Katie as Katie staggers back. Alistaire forearms her and then grabs her and goes to whip her across the ring, but Katie spins through and thumbs his eyes. The crowd ohs. Katie then steps up and hits a Hair-Flip DDT. Katie rolls over. She then grabs Alistaire and drags him over to the ropes. Katie looks at the casket and then grabs Alistaire and slowly lifts him up.

Sharper: “Katie Steward trying to eliminate Alistaire Allocco-“

Knots: “The SCW Adrenaline Champion!”

Sharper: “She’s trying!”

Katie then nails him with a hard forearm and then another and another before running across the ring. She bounces off and goes for the Botox Injection, but Allocco catches her and then throws her overhead with a suplex. Katie goes up and over and lands in the casket. Syren then pushes the casket top closed. The bell sounds.

Phillips: “Katie Steward has been eliminated!”

Syren then staggers back as Alistaire turns and steps through the ropes. He steps onto the casket and then steps forward and hits a crossbody of his own, taking Syren down. The crowd ohs.

Sharper: “Allocco leaving his feet!”

Knots: “A true Adrenaline Champion!”

Alistaire rolls over as TJ runs over to the casket where Katie is inside. Alistaire gets up and winces and grabs Syren. He pulls her up and forearms her in the jaw and then turns and runs her into the nearby casket, the one Adonis had been in. Syren turns and Alistaire then pulls her in and spins around. He glances behind him, and tries to go for a belly-to-belly suplex, but Syren blocks. Allocco tries again, but Syren blocks it again. He then knees her in the ribs and then goes for a hip toss, but Syren spins through and then drop toe holds Alistaire into the side of the casket. Syren moves around him.

Sharper: “Syren counters. Alistaire into the casket.”

Knots: “Oh God. There may be splinters. SCW didn’t spring for the good stuff!”

Alistaire leans against the casket and Syren looks at him and lunges and hits a superkick. Alistaire goes up and over and into the casket. The crowd roars. Syren staggers over, before Lexy closes the casket on her behalf. She then jumps up and down and points at the casket.

Chapel: “Take that Allocco! Take that!”

Syren looks a bit stunned as the bell sounds.

Phillips: “Here is your winner, Syren!”

Sharper: “Syren wins. Lexy Chapel with an assist. I don’t know if Syren expected that. But she has a win.”

Knots: “Has a win and the ten match win streak begins! And against an Allocco! Adam ended it. Against Alistaire, she starts it again! The Allocco Assassin? The Real Allocco Assassin!”

Lexy keeps yelling at the casket before turning and raising Syren’s arm. She looks around as her music plays. Syren then turns and plays to the crowd a bit before the scene cuts away.

The Fatal Fortunes logo comes up on the screen. We cut to the big screen as we see a shot of a wheel of various matches spinning before flashing on matches like steel cage, underground, strap match, and others, before another ring spins showing various configurations: singles, tag, triple threat and so on. They both spin before the screen flashes and shows “Triple Threat House of Fun Match for the SCW United States Championship.” The crowd cheers.

Sharper: “And when we return, the US Championship on the line. And in the House of Fun.”

Knots: “Triple Threat too!”

Sharper: “Will Deanna survive who awaits her to face The One Kirsten Scott in two weeks?”

The scene fades to black.

COMMERCIALS

Breakdown returns as Syren walks through into the locker room of LexyCorp. Autumn stands up and Syren looks at her before they fist pump one another. Lexy steps in, phone already in hand.

Lexy: “I can’t believe it!”

Autumn: “Syren got one over Alistaire. You have to be happy-“

Lexy: “I would, but it was supposed to be YOU facing HIM for the Adrenaline Championship! Not Syren! Not yet! Syren has other plans. And of course, my father messes with this all. And-“

Syren: “Look, I’m happy. I got a win. It was something different and-“

Lexy: “Yes, but not THE win. Autumn is the Allocco Assassin. You know how hard it is to get SCW things right with their trademarks. We have a LOT of money into it. TONNES. Enough to start our own Crypto…oh wait…I can start a crypto. AutumnCoin….SyrenSauce…Oh God…I need to get on that.”

Lexy storms out of the locker room as Syren turns to Autumn. Autumn shakes her head.

Autumn: “Good win out there.”

Syren: “Yeah…”

Autumn: “Look, I-“

Syren: “I know. Lexy’s plans. Just…I’ll be in your corner. Don’t worry there.”

Autumn: “And Ravyn? Where is she? Kinda weird this is how Dark Fantasy gets back together.”

Syren: “I figured she’d be here. She’s trying to be a good soldier for LexyCorp. Destroyed Alex Jr. last week. Turning or using Lexy and all.”

Autumn: “Well just be careful.”

Syren: “It’s Ravyn. She’s not going to hurt me. Nothing like that.”

Autumn looks at bit concerned as Syren turns and heads over to her gear as the scene cuts away.

Deanna Frost vs. Ace Sky vs. Dakon Theron

Clockwork Orange House of Fun

SCW United States Championship

Back in the ring, we see several poles set up at each ring post, connecting chains where various weapons hang. One corner has a steel cage section set up too.

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall and is a triple threat House of Fun match for the SCW United States Championship!”

The SCW United States Championship logo comes across the screen before the chords of "People Like Us" by Kelly Clarkson fill the arena, causing a roar from the audience as bright, fall leaves seem to blow and fly on the LED screens on and around the ramp. From the back curtain, out runs Deanna Frost, wearing the SCW United States Championship, taking in the audience before running to the right side, then the left side, shouting to them in excitement. The 'leaves' follow her as she does. Returning to the middle, Deanna gives a spin on one foot, her arms outstretched, the 'leaves' circling her below her feet. 

Phillips: “First, on her way to the ring, from Manhattan, New York, she is the SCW United States Champion, Deanna Frost!"

Hearing her name, Deanna stops her spin, side facing the ring, and, with one hand over her heart, her free hand arcs around to point forward, the 'leaves' flying down the ramp and 'circling the ring LED barriers. Making her way down to the ring, Deanna high-fives fans along the way until she reaches the ring. Sliding under the ring, the Queen's Guard jumps to her feet, making her way to the middle ropes and leaning over them, one arm raised to the crowd. She does the same to the other sides of the ring. On the last time, Deanna hops back into the ring as the lights return to normal. She hands off the title to the official.

Sharper: “Again, champion out first. This is so the champion can see their opponents come out.”

Knots: “Well we assume that the champion that is defending is in the match defending their championship!”

Sharper: “Meanwhile, for Deanna, it may be a nice change as the rumours and concerns about Selena Frost returning tonight have been rampant. She’s not been drawn yet.”

A rocket drops from the bottom of the big screen to the stage and there is a countdown voice over from 5 which fans count down. “Eye In The Sky” by The Alan Parsons Project play as a pod door opens and Ace Sky walks out in an aviator jacket and his usual in ring attire.

Phillips: “Now the challengers, first, from Houston, Texas, he is Ace Sky!”

He salutes a peace sign and jogs down the aisle way high-fiving as many fans as possible while alternating with gesturing to his forehead. Then he dashes with his trademark slide through the bottom ring apron. He does the Third Eye forehead point taunt again and gets into Bruce Lee style-southpaw martial arts stance.

Sharper: “Ace Sky, returning two weeks ago, and already in a title match.”

Knots: “And this could be interesting. He’s looking around at the weapons hanging. He could be having a blast.”

“Off To War” by Behemoth plays over the sound system with the lights being dark as ever as Konrad, with Ginny behind him in the middle, Ludvig on the left and Dakon on the right-hand sides, looking at the crowd and got heavy boos. When the lights briefly came back on, you see Dakon, Ludvig and Ginny for Konrad waving their Norway, Sweden and German flags. Konrad brings his German mace to the ring with him as he crotches down with the mace in front of him with Ginny behind him, while Ludvig and Dakon are on the left and right-hand side.

Phillips: “And finally, making their way to the ring, accompanied by Ginny Raab, coming from Norway, representing the European Fiery Nation, he is Dakon Theron!"

The lights go out again as Konrad got up from his knees. They walked down to the ring with their flags and stepped on the stairs, and did a hold-up in the middle of the ring as they gave their flags to Ginny, and she left the ring to go to the back, leaving the three men in the ring as Konrad sits down with the Ludvig and Dakon on the side of Raab. When the lights returned, Konrad got up and waited for their opponents to enter the ring.

Sharper: “All three members of the European Fiery Nation out here.”

Knots: “It is a singles match. And I don’t know if they’re going to agree.”

Sharper: “Theron and Eriksson are exclusively a team. So this is new.”

We then see the official telling Eriksson and Raab to leave. They don’t as Deanna looks at them and Ace does too. Eriksson then pulls off a chain, while Theron grabs a steel chair. Deanna backs up and grabs a kendo stick as Ace Sky continues to watch. Raab then exits the ring and smiles. We then see officials and road agents coming to the ring. They start to tell Raab and Eriksson to leave. Eriksson remains in the ring as Theron and Eriksson look at one another and Theron then swings at Deanna. Deanna ducks and spins around and goes to nail Eriksson with the kendo stick. He ducks and then Eriksson swings the chain. Deanna moves out of the way as Theron runs over and drives the end of the chair into the ribs of Deanna. Eriksson goes to move over and this is where Ace then runs across the ring and jumps to the top rope and dives back before hitting a frankensteiner, snapping Eriksson off and sending him out of the ring. Theron nails Deanna again with the end of the chair. Ace rolls over and turns and Theron goes to throw the chair at Ace. Ace ducks.

Sharper: “Ace saving Deanna, but maybe more seeing an opportunity!”

Knots: “For the US Title too!”

Crew members go to Eriksson as CHBK walks out from the back. We then see Ace run at Deanna after dodging Theron and hitting a running high knee. The crowd ohs. Ace turns back and Theron goes for a hip toss, but Ace lands on his feet and hits a fall back pump kick. Theron staggers as Ace gets up. He turns and grabs the kendo stick Deanna had and turns and nails Theron with it. Theron goes down. Ace then does a quick demonstration with it before turning back as Deanna hits a dropkick, knocking him down. He rolls over and Deanna walks over to him and grabs him and the kendo stick. She places it around the throat of Ace before hitting a kendo-stick assisted Russian leg sweep.

Sharper: “And Deanna fighting back and now this match getting going here.”

Knots: “We need to get the psychos out of here. It is no rules, so if they want to get in, no disqualifications!”

Sharper: “Eriksson and Raab being forced away and Raab getting belligerent. So is Eriksson.”

Raab snaps at officials as Eriksson swings at a few. Back in the ring, Deanna gets up and Ace rolls over and Deanna knees him in the ribs once and then again before running him face first into the cage side. Ace falls back. Deanna turns around and Theron lifts her up and hits a release flapjack, driving Deanna into the chair. The crowd ohs. Theron then turns and walks over and grabs a staple gun off the chain. He then smiles before walking over and going to place it against the head of Deanna as she gets up. Deanna, however, resists, bracing Theron’s arm and pushing back as Theron keeps trying to overpower her. Ace then turns and runs over and grabs Theron from behind and snaps him back with the Shaman-plex.

Theron rolls out of it. He rolls over and Ace kicks at him. He turns and kicks Deanna and then runs to the ropes. He jumps to the top rope and backflips back, but Deanna moves out of the way. Ace lands on his feet and Deanna then kicks him in the ribs and hits the Spring Fling DDT. Deanna rolls over and turns and moves to the corner and grabs a cookie sheet from the chains. She turns and nails Theron in the shoulder as he gets up. Theron staggers over. Raab starts to move away as Kandis then comes out from the back. The crowd erupts seeing her. Deanna strikes Theron again and Theron falls to a knee. Deanna then grabs the cookie sheet and places it against Theron’s head and hits a shoot kick, knocking him down. Deanna goes for the pin.

Theron pushes her off and Ace then hits a standing shooting star press onto Deanna. The crowd ohs.

Sharper: “Deanna got Theron down. But Ace recovering in time…”

Knots: “Kandis is here. I thought I smelled sweat and shame!”

Sharper: “She has no shame. That’s for certain and I think Raab has seen her. And now he’s heading to the back.”

Raab starts to storm to the back, crew members around him as Kandis smiles and motions for him to come at her. Kandis then calmly walks to the back as Raab picks up the pace and heads after her. Eriksson looks on and starts to head around the ring before stopping and turning back. Ace then grabs some nunchucks from the chains. He does a little bit of a show before nailing Theron in the head with one and then nailing him in the back of the leg and spinning around a striking him in the ribs. He falls to the ropes. Deanna gets up and Sky spins through and nails her in the jaw with them. The crowd ohs. Ace then turns and swings at Theron, but Theron blocks it before then pulling him in and then scooping him up before turning and hitting a powerslam onto the chair. Ace rolls over in pain. Theron gets up and then grabs the nunchuks and places them around the throat of Ace. He jerks Ace up, choking him with the nunchuks. Ace struggles as Theron keeps pulling back.

Sharper: “Theron now using those nunchuks against Ace Sky.”

Knots: “Well he felt them first hand. Theron is going to use them to make a difference.”

Eriksson looks on as officials try to get him to the back. Theron then turns and grabs Ace and turns and nods at Eriksson and then Theron runs across the ring and throws Ace up and over the top rope Eriksson catches him with a cutter as he comes down. The crowd ohs. Eriksson smiles as he rolls over. Theron then turns and turns around as Deanna then nails him with a trash can lid. Deanna, having pulled two down, has one in each hand. She nails Theron again and then again and again. Theron falls to the ropes. She then takes them and smashes both to the ribs of Theron before sandwiching Theron’s head. The crowd ohs. Deanna then jumps up and hits a dropkick to the head. Theron falls to the mat.

Sharper: “Deanna now working over Theron. She’s looking around.”

Knots: “Oh God…the table…”

Sharper: “She’s thinking table as Eriksson is still standing over Ace Sky.”

Knots: “Still finding a way for teamwork.”

Deanna pulls the table off the chains and turns and unfolds the legs. She then drags it out and places it down on the mat. Deanna turns around as Theron gets up and Deanna nails him with a forearm shot and then another and another before grabbing Theron and placing him on the table. Deanna then turns and nails him with a couple of hard shots before turning around and Eriksson hops onto the apron. Deanna runs at him and nails him with a forearm shot and then another. She turns and grabs the kendo stick as Eriksson reaches up and grabs a trash can, only for Deanna to run and swing, nailing Eriksson in the chest. He drops to the mat. Deanna turns around and Theron kicks her in the ribs. He places her head between his legs, hoists him up and turns and hits a powerbomb through the table.

Sharper: “Theron powerbombed Deanna!”

Knots: “We could see the European Fiery Nation with the US Title!”

Sharper: “Deanna went through like a knife through butter!”

Theron looks down and smiles before Ace Sky slides into the ring and runs past him and jumps to the steel cage siding and then pushes off with a moonsault, taking Theron down. The crowd ohs. Theron rolls over and gets up and Ace then hits a spinning back kick to the jaw.

Theron staggers back and Ace kicks the chair into position before grabbing Theron and pulling him back enough to hit a variation of the Super Nova Slice onto the chair. Ace goes for the pin.

Theron gets his shoulder up. The crowd ohs.

Sharper: “And Ace Sky nearly won the US Title by pinning Theron!”

Knots: “Deanna is still down. And there’s all kinds of weapons!”

Ace Sky rolls off and Theron rolls over. Eriksson stirs on the floor and Ace then then sees Theron get up and hits a running knee. Theron falls back and through the ropes. He then spins around and Deanna, holding a kendo stick, cracks Ace between the eyes with the weapon. Ace staggers and Deanna then runs into the ropes, bouncing off and hits the Burnout! The crowd ohs. Deanna falls on top of Ace and hooks the leg.

The crowd roars and Deanna rolls off and looks up. The bell sounds.

Phillips: “Here is your winner, via pinfall, and still SCW United States Champion, Deanna Frost!”

Sharper: “And Frost retains. That means she will be in the Chamber match. She will face The One Kirsten Scott!”

Knots: “And Scott has to be licking her lips!”

Deanna slowly gets up as Theron slowly gets up on the floor, annoyed. The official hands Deanna the SCW United States Championship. She holds it over her head as the crowd looks on.

Backstage, we hear yelling as officials are in a small area. EMTs start to move in with a stretcher as the camera gets closer and shows Matt Hodges down on the ground, unconscious his face blooded, and blood pooling around his head.

Sharper: “My God…Matt Hodges has been taken out.”

Knots: “We saw him arguing with his team, the Feast of the Ascension. I have two guesses of what happened!”

We see the EMTs moving into position to help Hodges as officials start to move the cameraman back.

COMMERCIALS

Backstage, Kandis is shown standing in the parking lot, where cars have already been set up, as if preparing for a potential parking lot brawl.

Sharper: “Kandis…she’s in the parking.”

Knots: “It’s freezing here, but she’s outside, in her coat, and those cars are set up.”

Sharper: “Parking Lot Brawl is an option at Fatal Fortunes!”

Kandis motions for Konrad as the camera turns to show Konrad Raab trying to get to the cars. Officials are around him, trying to stop him from getting to Kandis.

Kandis: “Let the son of a bitch go! Let’s just settle it here!”

Konrad keeps trying to get forward, held back by officials as the scene cuts away.

We cut to the big screen as we see a shot of a wheel of various matches spinning before flashing on matches like steel cage, underground, strap match, and others, before another ring spins showing various configurations: singles, tag, triple threat and so on. They both spin before the screen flashes and shows “Triple Threat Steel Cage Match.” The crowd cheers. The spotlights turn to the steel cage as it starts to lower to the ring.

Sharper: “And we were wondering. It’s hanging over the ring. And it’s been called into duty.”

Knots: “So what three poor bastards are going to enter this thing?”

Sharper: “So much is luck of a draw. But you know CHBK is watching every match closely. Every match could be a gamechanger.”

Knots: “Yeah. We just saw Dakon Theron and Ace Sky get a title match. Theron’s first singles match. Sky’s second match back. And they got that opportunity. Saw Lohan and Luz go at it. You know he’s gotta be thinking Twisted & Sadistic against Light in the Darkness if LITD survives Fatal Fortunes!”

The cage continues to come down and settles around the ring. Crew members lock the cage into place before one opens the door. Steven Hollinsworth awaits.

Simon Lyman vs. Autumn Valentine vs. Kimberly Williams

Steel Cage Match

A woman’s voice can be heard as the video screens display the words she's saying in unison.

"Lexy Chapel Proudly Presents"

"YOUR FUTURE ADRENALINE CHAMPION"

"AUTUMN VALENTINE"

“Miss Nothing” by The Pretty Reckless hits the PA system as Autumn Valentine walks out onto the stage wearing a black jacket. Across her ring-gear we see the ‘Lexy Chapel Presents’ and ‘Chapel Show’ branding. She pauses on the stage for a moment before being joined by Lexy Chapel who starts pointing at her and yelling at the fans to cheer for her. Around Lexy’s neck we see a lanyard which appears to be a manager’s license.

Phillips: “The following contest is a triple threat steel cage match. You win by pinfall or submission. First, hailing from Los Angeles, California, accompanied, and PROUDLY represented, by Lexy Chapel, this is Autumn Valentine!”

Autumn walks to the ring accompanied by Lexy. She goes to the door and looks in and steps inside. Lexy points to Hollinsworth, snapping at him that this should be banned. Autumn ignores it and climbs onto the corner before sliding off her jacket and letting it fall to the floor. She then runs at the turnbuckles, climbing up and throwing up her arms before looking to the camera confidently. She jumps from the outside of the ropes to inside of the ring, rolling back to her feet before walking the middle of the ring and dropping down into the splits. Lexy keeps talking to the official and now the crew members as Autumn steps up and walks around the ring.

Sharper: “Autumn Valentine returning to the ring here at Fatal Fortunes.”

Knots: “She’s ready. Lexy is trying to stage a protest or something.”

Sharper: “Probably not thrilled this isn’t for the Adrenaline Championship or that it’s a cage match. A dangerous match.”

“Hero” by Skillet starts to play and the crowd erupts before starting to boo. A few moments pass before Simon Lyman walks out from the back in his gear. He then points at the ring and turns back as Lisa Archer walks out and tries to calm him down. Elijah Smith stands, arms crossed. Autumn smirks as she paces around the ring. Simon then turns and says something to Lisa Archer before reluctantly starting to head to the ring.

Phillips: “Next, accompanied by Lisa Archer and Elijah Smith, from Columbus, Ohio, he is Simply Sensational, Simon Lyman!”

Lyman takes a few steps down to the ring and stops. Hollinsworth tells him to come to the ring. Lyman snaps at him. Lisa Archer steps forward and tells Hollinsworth to get back. Elijah Smith stands in front of Simon, defending him. Lyman looks around and some fans get under his skin and Lyman threatens to hit one.

Sharper: “Simon Lyman in this match. And he does not look happy about it.”

Knots: “Not at all. Guess heroes don’t fight in cages…at least anymore!”

Sharper: “And his new team, this ragtag group, standing on his behalf.”

Lyman continues to protest as Archer talks to Hollinsworth. Chapel just yells at him to get into the ring as Autumn paces inside. The lights go out, except for a single spotlight at the top of the stage. The opening chords to “Patient Number 9” by Ozzy Osbourne begins to play.  A haunting voice is heard…

"Is there a way out of here?"
"Hey, how long you been here?"
"I wanna go home"
"Hey, hahaha"
"Hahaha"
"Excuse me, could you tell how to get out of here?"
"Hahaha"
"I want to go home"
"Hahaha"
"Mommy, mommy"

The song begins to rage full bore now. Lyman continues to threaten fans, waiting for Archer to resolve his situation. The lights come back on and Kimberly Williams is standing at the top of the stage to a loud, mostly positive, reaction from the fans.

Phillips: “And finally, from Boston, Massachusetts, she is the Wild Card, Kimberly Williams!”

A sinister smirk is on her face as she ponders what she is about to do tonight. She winks at the fans before pointing towards the ring and making a beeline towards it. She stops as she sees Lyman and Smith. She then walks over and taps Lyman on the shoulder. Lyman turns and gets his hands up. Elijah Smith steps up and immediately, Kim grabs him and throws him into the barricade. Lyman then turns and looks at Kim stunned before Kim turns and kicks him in the ribs. She nails him with a hard right. The crowd roars as Kim grabs Lyman and spins him around and throws him face first into the side of the cage. Lyman staggers and Kim grabs him and turns and throws him into the doorway. Lyman struggles, but Kim pushes him through, pushing on his lower back and ass, stuffing him into the cage. Kim tells Hollinsworth to get in as Archer looks stunned. Kim then follows Hollinsworth in as she pulls the cage door closed.

Sharper: “Lyman stuffed into the cage. Kimberly Williams making sure he enters.”

Knots: “He’s still in his robe. Maybe may protect him some. At least Kim doesn’t have weapons!”

Sharper: “She has a cage.”

Knots: “And that may be worse!”

The bell sounds as Simon staggers up to his feet and turns to Autumn only for Autumn to drill him with a superkick. Simon falls back and rolls into the corner. Autumn then turns as Kim shrugs and lunges. She nails Autumn with a forearm shot and then Autumn fires back. The crowd erupts as the two women fire back and forth with forearm shots and then Autumn rakes the eyes of Kim. She runs into the ropes, bouncing off and Kim swings wildly, but Autumn ducks and bounces off the other side. Kim turns and Autumn jumps up and hits a Lou Thesz press. She then starts to hammer away on Kim with repeated right hands.

Sharper: “Autumn taking the fight to Kim.”

Knots: “Simon! Just stay down. Let these two kill each other!”

Sharper: “He’s down now, still in that damn robe. The 1980s are done Simon. You can get the bejeweled sequin robe out of here!”

Autumn gets up and walks around as Kim rolls over and turns and Autumn forearms her in the jaw. She then whips Kim into the ropes. Kim bounces off. Autumn goes for a back drop, but Kim spins through and lands behind Autumn. Autumn goes for a back elbow, but Kim ducks and then grabs Autumn by the tights and pulls her hard into the cage, driving her face first. Autumn falls back and rolls over. She slowly gets up and Kim steps up and spins her around and throws her face first into the cage side. Autumn falls back and rolls over.

Sharper: “And Kim using the cage as a weapon. Not a surprise there.”

Knots: “Nice and early. Not even going to wait.”

Kim then turns as Autumn stirs and Kim grabs her and hits a back suplex. She goes for the pin.

Autumn kicks out. She rolls over and Kim turns and grabs Autumn. She drags her over to the ropes. She starts to grind her face against the cage, but Autumn blocks it. Autumn yells out as Kim tries to push forward, but Autumn elbows her in the ribs once and then again before Autumn elbows Kim in the jaw. Kim staggers back and Autumn runs out and hits a spinning heel kick. She turns and goes for the pin.

Kim hits the corner and bounces out and Autumn jumps up and hits a frankensteiner. The crowd ohs. Kim rolls over, holding her head. Autumn gets up and turns as Lyman gets up and clotheslines her down. He then takes off his robe.

Sharper: “And Lyman! From behind.”

Knots: “There! He’s getting that robe off!”

Sharper: “And look! Just using it as a weapon now! Choking Autumn!”

Lyman turns and stretches his robe out and wraps it around the neck of Autumn. He pulls back and turns, bending over, with Autumn on his back. Autumn kicks her legs as Lyman keeps choking her. Lexy yells at Lyman to drop her. Lyman just smirks. She then nods to Lexy before running backward and sandwiching Autumn against his body, the ropes and the cage. The crowd ohs as Autumn drops down. Kim gets up and Lyman turns and hits a spinebuster. Lyman then gets up and staggers to the ropes. He looks back and spits at Hollinsworth before starting to climb up the ropes. The crowd boos.

Sharper: “Lyman drops Kim. Now…is he trying to escape?”

Knots: “Well, it is a bold tactic. I mean you can’t be pinned or submitted on the floor.”

Sharper: “You can’t win either!”

Lyman then starts to climb up the ropes and snaps at the crowd. He climbs up the side of the cage as the crowd boos some more. He gets up and looks over the top and snaps at the crowd. Kim however starts to fight to her feet. Autumn rolls over, blood coming down her face. Kim climbs up the ropes as Lyman tries to push up onto the top of the cage. Kim however grabs Lyman. Lyman reaches forward, even overhanging the top. The crowd roars as Kim then reaches up again and pulls on Lyman’s tights. She pulls them down, exposing Lyman’s whole ass. The crowd roars.

Sharper: “It’s a full moon in Calgary!”

Knots: “Well Lyman has been accused of making an ass out of himself!”

Sharper: “He is making an ass of himself. Exposed here in Calgary in this cage!”

Lyman reaches around as Kim keeps grabbing Lyman and then turns and pulls him down and powerbombs him down to the ring. The crowd ohs as the crowd cheers. Kim rolls over. She then gets up and smiles before turning and going to Lyman, but Autumn then runs at Kim and hits a running double high knee.

Sharper: “Simon Lyman planted!”

Knots: “Autumn!”

Sharper: “And Autumn from nowhere! The bloodied visage of Autumn Valentine!”

Autumn turns and dives onto Lyman. She goes for the pin.

Kim kicks out. Kim rolls over as Autumn stirs. Lyman moves to the ropes. Autumn gets up and turns and runs into the ropes. She bounces off and slides under Kim and then pulls on her legs and snaps her back into the cage wall.

Sharper: “Autumn throwing some new offense out there. A snap sunset flip type move.”

Knots: “Kim finding out the cage hurts. I don’t know if that’s good or bad for everyone else.”

Kim rolls over as Autumn turns and grabs at the ropes. Lexy paces as Autumn gets to the top rope. She turns and looks at Kim. She dives off and hits a meteora, taking Kim down. Autumn rolls through. She then turns and grabs Lyman, but Lyman hits a European uppercut. She staggers and spins around and Lyman kicks her in the ribs. He then muscles her up for a powerbomb only to turn and cradle her head. He then throws her overhead with the Adrenaline Shot into Kim as she gets up. Lyman then rolls over and crawls to Autumn. He then pulls her up and hits a package piledriver. The crowd ohs. Lexy looks on stunned. Lyman hooks the leg.

Autumn gets her shoulder up just in time. The crowd ohs.

Sharper: “Lyman now thought he had a chance to win. Autumn spiked, but finding a way to get that shoulder up!”

Knots: “Wasn’t just spiked, but folded up!”

Lyman turns and grabs Autumn as she stirs and just throws her down. Lyman turns to Lexy.

Lyman: “You need to stop with Dark Fantasy. Old and washed up!”

Chapel just laughs as Lyman turns and walks over to Kimberly and grabs her. He nails her with a hard right and then another before grabbing her and turning and going for a beal. Kim however flips through and lands on her feet. Lyman looks stunned as Kim turns and hits the Morrigan’s Wrath. The crowd ohs. Lyman staggers and Kim then grabs him by the head and spins him around and throws him face first into the side of the cage. Lyman staggers back. The crowd cheers. Kim turns and brings her hand to her ear. The crowd cheers. Kim turns and grabs Lyman and runs him again face first into the cage. Lyman stumbles back and Kim again listens to the ground. They chant “one more time!” as Kim grabs Lyman and throws him into the cage again and then grabs him and runs him across the ring to the other side before grabbing him and running him across to another side of the ring and Lyman falls to the mat, rolls over, blood dripping down his face. Kim stands in the ring and looks around as the crowd cheers.

Sharper: “Kim learned that the cage hurts and now she’s the only one in the ring not bleeding!”

Knots: “The crowd turning on Lyman. How could they turn on their hero!”

Sharper: “Oh stop it!”

Kim then turns and sees Lyman. Kim grabs him and then turns and grabs his robe. She walks back and places it around Lyman’s neck.

Sharper: “Autumn Valentine returns to the ring and is victorious. Kim had Simon down, but Autumn recovering to drive her into the mat.”

Knots: “Maybe even sending a message to Datura who also wants the Adrenaline Championship. Going after long time frenemy of hers.”

Sharper: “After last week, I don’t know if Datura and Kim are on speaking terms. Nonetheless, LexyCorp looking good tonight. Syren earlier. Autumn now.”

Autumn exits the cage and moves to the floor. She throws her arms up as the crowd roars. Kim looks up, annoyed as Lexy leads Autumn around the ring, celebrating as the scene fades out.

COMMERCIALS

Simon Lyman is shown walking backstage with Elijah Stone and Lisa Archer. The crowd boos seeing him as Lyman, still bloodied, is still angry from his match, heading to his locker room. He takes a few more steps before he’s stopped by a man standing in his way. Lyman looks up as the camera pans back to reveal Josh Hudson. The crowd erupts.

Hudson: “Simon…”

Lyman: “Josh…get the hell out of my way.”

Elijah steps up as Hudson looks at Simon.

Hudson: “No…I think we should chat.”

Lyman: “And I don’t want to.”

Lyman shoves Hudson down, Elijah shadowing this to act like he helps before Simon storms off with Archer and Stone. Josh slowly gets up and dusts himself off.

Hudson: “Guess everyone makes mistakes....”

Hudson glares at Simon as the scene cuts away.

We cut to the big screen as we see a shot of a wheel of various matches spinning before flashing on matches like steel cage, underground, strap match, and others, before another ring spins showing various configurations: singles, tag, triple threat and so on. They both spin before the screen flashes and shows “Fatal Four Way Dog Collar Match.” The crowd cheers.

Sharper: “Oh my…four individuals. Fatal Fortunes making this not only a matter of fate, but also can you survive a lot of moving parts.”

Knots: “And they’ll be all connected! By the neck!”

Chance Owens vs. Xander Valentine vs. Kelsai Adamson vs. Polly

Dog Collar Match

You like to hunt, your game is fear
I was the one, your souvenir
This is a fight, the one that you've been asking for
You did incite the call for us to go to war

Jagged green lights play across the screen and the stage as a voice that can only belong to the one and only Chris Jericho belts out the words to "Wolves At Bay". Spotlights move around near the entranceway and one of them catches someone's right arm in its beam.

Pushing and pushing
Giving me no choice
Humiliate, intimidate
Until I hit the breaking point

The spotlights are still moving around on the stage as the lights on the screen start forming a pattern. One of the moving spotlights dances across someone's left leg.

Back to the wall
Keeping the wolves at bay
Fight my way out
'Cause it's the only way

The lights on the screen settle into a final configuration spelling out the name "Chance Owens". The person in question comes out to stand on the stage under some of the spotlights. Chance shields his eyes for a moment before.

Phillips: “The following contest is a fatal four way dog collar match. First, on his way to the ring, from Denver, Colorado, Chance Owens!”

Chance nods before heading down the ramp toward the ring, the lights catching the white tape over his hands going up to the second knuckle on each finger. He doesn't respond to the cheers nor does he react to the boos. Once he reaches the ringside area, Chance ascends the steel steps that will take him between the ropes.

Sharper: “Chance Owens returning to the ring after being sidelined for some time. But notice he’s out here alone.”

Knots: “Does that mean that Kelsai or Adam are in this? Maybe this could be a very interesting match.”

Sharper: “We saw Glory Braddock with Brittany Lohan earlier. We saw Amelia Blythe with LA Pequena Luz. And nonetheless, everyone would have about five minutes to be prepared. It’s why everyone is in their gear. You get the call and you go.”

A long church bell rings, once- twice- a third time as the crowd explodes. The lights go out as Xander’s voice echoes out over the sound system, increasing the intensity of the crowd’s roar.

“Never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.”

The few opening keystrokes of “Soul on Fire” by The Last Internationale chimed. A lull before the storm as the crowd seems to calm for only a moment before Delila Paz’s blues dominate the audio.

“Some are born to kill

Others are born to run

Some need to keep on takin'

Till you ain't got none”

A singular light appears before the curtains, on the other side is the outline of a large man. On the screen, we’re shown Xander Valentine holding onto the bars of a prison cell. He starts to bend the bars before the scene blurs.

“But baby, I wasn't built to die

Lay down and be crucified

Nah, no matter how hard they try

To push me down

Still I rise”

“Soul on Fire (Soul, Soul, Soul, Soul)

Soul on Fire (Soul, Soul, Soul, Soul)”

The curtain drops to reveal Xander. A quick salvo of pyros explodes in front of him before he steps through the smoke with an intense look on his face. He goes from one side of the stage to the next, yelling out to the crowd and throwing up his arms. He then stops at the top of the ramp while Artemis steps up from behind him and throws his arm up into the air. Together they start down the ramp, Xander’s gaze affixed on the ring.

Phillips: “Fighting out of Fort Collins, Colorado from Rochester, New York, the Paragon of Violence, the Executioner, Xander Valentine!”

Suffocate me until I am blue

To preserve my bad worldview

Paranoid, All Eyes On Me

Rumours circle, vultures feed

Baby, I wasn't built to die

Lay down and be crucified

Nah, no matter how hard they try

To push me down

Still I rise

Soul on Fire (Soul, Soul, Soul, Soul)

Soul on Fire (Soul, Soul, Soul, Soul)

Soul on Fire (Soul, Soul, Soul, Soul)

Soul on Fire (Soul, Soul, Soul, Soul)

Xander leaps up onto the apron in a single bound. Artemis joins him by slipping below the bottom rope. Xander climbs up over the top rope and marches straight to the far side of the ring. He throws his arms up again, getting a massive pop. He goes to the opposite side and repeats to garner the same response. He hops down from the rope, and jogs into place, waiting for the bell. Artemis leans up and whispers into his ears before departing with a kiss on his neck. Meanwhile, Aaron Demitra stands in the ring, holding two dog collars. Chance watches them as Xander walks over and grabs one, placing it around his neck himself. Chance watches him.

Sharper: “Oh boy.”

Knots: “Okay! You don’t want to be connected to that!”

Sharper: “When you have a monster like that in there, this is where things get very different. And he’s a man, connected to the neck, by a dog collar and chain. He can do some damage!”

The familiar riffs of Nickelback's "Savin Me" begins as Chance Owens smiles. Soon Kelsai Adamson appears at the top of stage. She then looks around before looking in the ring. She then smiles as she starts to head to the ring.

Phillips: “Next, from New Orleans, Louisiana by way of Denver, Colorado, she is Kelsai Adamson!”

Adamson heads down to the ring and runs down and slides in. Immediately, Chance grabs the dog collar not connected to Xander and hands one end to Kelsai. Xander looks at both as Chance places his collar around his neck. Kelsai helps him fasten it before Chance does the same.

Sharper: “And the smile says it all. Not only that, Chance Owens going over to Kelsai Adamson and immediately, they’ll be connected.”

Knots: “That gives them an advantage. They can work together!”

Sharper: “While some one is going to be connected to Xander.”

Knots: “The poor bastard!”

A coin can be heard dropping into a coin slot but then there is complete silence, nothing on the SCW big screen appearing. It is 10 seconds before the beginning of "Prisoner" by Miley Cyrus and Dua Lipa begins to play. Polly emerges from the back, looking down at the ring, already wearing a dog collar. She looks at the ring as the crowd boos. Polly looks around before starting to head to the ring. Her eyes dart around, watching everyone in the ring.

Phillips: “And finally, from Panguitch, Utah, she is Polly!”

Polly then runs to the ring and slides in before stopping and looking at the dog collar in the ring, connected to Xander. Demitra then steps up, holding the collar up as Polly looks at it before touching the collar on her neck. She then turns and lets out a yell and runs at Kelsai and nails her with a hard right and then another before turning to Chance and grabbing him. Chance lifts her up and throws her into the corner. The bell sounds as Owens knees her in the ribs once and then again before Xander grabs Chance and just throws him back.

Sharper: “Poly out here. And she’s had a dog collar thanks to Marissa Swanson. She’s kept wearing it. But she’s been more aggressive as of late.”

Knots: “And looks like this just set her off. And now Xander going over to get her connected!”

Polly then runs at Xander and tries to tackle him down, but Xander blocks it. She keeps trying and Xander lifts her up in a gutwrench and throws her down. He then turns and grabs Polly and places the dog collar connected to him around the throat. Polly struggles a bit as Xander locks her into it. He then gets up and Kelsai and Chance run over, both holding their chain and run at Xander, drilling him in the side of the head, knocking him down with a clothesline-like strike as they run past. Kelsai and Chance turn as Polly gets up and turns and runs at Xander, not realizing he’s been taken down, but Kelsai and Chance drill her in the mouth with the chain.

Sharper: “And Polly’s aggressiveness getting her in trouble. While Owens and Adamson, as we expected, working together.”

Knots: “And they’re going after Xander!”

Xander starts to get up and Owens and Kelsai take their chain and wrap it around his neck. Xander grabs at his neck, trying to get free as Kelsai and Chance start to choke him. Xander struggles as Kelsai and Chance keep pulling back. Xander reaches for the ropes with one hand and tries to pull on the chains with the other. Xander keeps struggling, starting to fade a bit before Polly runs over and nails Kelsai in the back of the head with a forearm shot. She then turns and dropkicks Chance. They go down and Xander drops down. Xander pulls on the chain, getting it off before rolling over. Polly then stomps away repeatedly on Chance.

Sharper: “Polly inadvertently saving Xander.”

Knots: “Would that have counted? Who’d get the win?”

Sharper: “That’s a question for Aaron Demitra who is in the middle of this war.”

Polly steps on Chance’s head, and grinds her boot down, yelling at him as she does. Kelsai then gets up and runs over to Polly, grabbing her from behind and hitting a release German suplex. The crowd ohs. Kelsai turns and checks on Chance. Chance nods as Polly starts to get up and Kelsai walks over and hooks her up and hits a vertical suplex. Kelsai then gets up and runs to the ropes, jumping to the middle rope and hitting a lionsault onto Polly.

Xander grabs her and pulls her up and then hoists her up and throws her back with a deadlift back suplex. Kelsai rolls over as Xander gets up and Chance gets up and grabs Xander from behind and hits a jawbreaker. Chance winces, shaking out his arm.

Sharper: “Jawbreaker on Xander. And I think the dog collar caught him.”

Knots: “That’s instinct or just not thinking. He’s been out of the ring for a bit.”

Sharper: “He’s regretting it, but not stopping.”

Chance nails Xander with a hard right and then another and another. He then grabs him and goes to whip him across. Xander bounces off and Chance steps up, but Kelsai is rolled on the chain and Chance is stopped. Xander then hits a clothesline and Chance turns inside out. Xander walks around and turns and grabs Chance. He then turns and lifts him up and turns and throws him across the ring, but Kelsai rolls toward Chance at the last moment to prevent him from getting choked in the air. Chance crashes to the mat, missing Polly. Polly then gets up and rakes Xander in the eyes. She then takes the chain that she shares with Xander and folds it over before whipping Xander in the stomach once and then again before nailing him in the face. Xander falls to the ropes.

Sharper: “Polly now just whipping Xander Valentine.”

Knots: “I don’t care who you are. That stings. That hurts. And in the face!”

Sharper: “Polly almost fearless in her aggression. We’ve seen it in the Chamber and then in attacking Alexis Quinne and Sarah Wolf!”

Polly then runs and nails him in the head again. She then jumps up to the middle rope and then hits a dropkick. Xander falls to the mat. Polly goes for the pin.

Xander kicks out. Polly rolls off and turns as Kelsai jumps up and grabs Polly’s head and hits a tornado DDT. She turns and hooks the leg.

Polly gets her shoulder up. Kelsai rolls over and turns as Xander starts to get up and Chance Owens gets up with Kelsai and then they head over to Xander and hit a double flapjack. The crowd ohs.

Knots: “Owens and Adamson back to double-teaming. And they just lifted Xander!”

Sharper: “Keep both down. Keep the pressure. Then it’s fine the opening. Do they know who is getting the win though? This is a singles match.”

Polly stirs as Kelsai and Chance get up. Polly then lunges at Chance and Chance hoists her up and hits the Brake Check, but holds her there as Kelsai then jumps to the middle rope and hits a springboard leg drop to the head of Polly. Polly flips back and Chance rolls her over before letting Kelsai go for the pin.

Knots: “There’s our answer!”

Sharper: “Chivalry is not dead, folks.”

Xander pulls on Polly and that causes her to get her shoulder up as Polly is slid across the mat. Xander gets up and Chance nails him with a hard right and then another and another before Kelsai runs over and starts to pummel Xander too. Xander drops to a knee. Owens and Adamson turn and run into the ropes together. They bounce off and Xander steps up and hoists both up and hits a double release spinebuster. The crowd ohs as Owens and Adamson roll over in pain. Xander walks around the ring.

Sharper: “Oh my God! Xander Valentine just powers both Kelsai Adamson and Chance Owens up.”

Knots: “Welp. That’s one way to counter their teamwork!”

Xander walks around the ring as he grabs Adamson and Owens lunges and nails him in the lower leg. He nails him again and Xander turns and grabs Owen and pulls him up and then runs him over and throws him face first into the top turnbuckle. Owens falls to a knee. Xander knees him in the ribs once and then again and again before Polly suddenly runs at Xander and does a somersault in the air. Xander moves out of the way as Polly hits Chance hard. She rolls through and then gets up and Xander grabs Polly and scoops her up and then throws her into Kelsai as she is down, causing Polly to hit a splash onto Kelsai. She stays on him.

Xander pulls on the chain and Polly falls back and rolls over and looks at Xander, glaring at him. Xander turns to her as the crowd roars.

Sharper: “Xander pulling Polly off of Kelsai Adamson after using her as a weapon.”

Knots: “And I don’t think Polly liked that. I have a hint!”

Polly then lunges at Xander and tries to tackle him down again but Xander blocks it. Polly punches him repeatedly in the stomach over and over before Xander throws her down Polly turns and gets up and Xander catches her, but Chance Owens runs out and spears him down. Polly ends up on top of Xander.

Chance breaks it up. He then grabs Polly and turns and nails her with a forearm shot and then another and another before going for the End of the Road, but Polly ducks and then Chance spins through only for Polly to rake his eyes. She kicks him in the ribs and runs into the ropes and then bounces off and goes for the Head Turner, but Chance dodges. Polly stops and turns and Chance turns and throws her over the top rope. Polly spins through and lands on the apron. Chance then turns to her only for Polly to hit a pump kick on the apron. Chance falls back as Xander rolls over and Polly goes to springboard, but Sarah Wolf appears at ringside, having seemingly come from the crowd, uncaught by the camera and grabs Polly’s legs. She then pulls using Xander’s body to choke Polly as she tries to get free.

Sharper: “Wolf at ringside. Sarah Wolf and she’s pulling on Polly! Polly hanging! She’s hanging!”

Knots: “And Xander is down, the counterweight. Wolf is trying to make Polly go out!”

Xander moves to his knees, struggling himself, choking too as Wolf pulls on Polly, looking right at her eyes. Polly struggles as Chance and Kelsai run at Xander and both nail him with repeated blows before running back and then Xander turns and hits a back elbow to Owens. Owens goes down. Kelsai is stopped by Owens going down, and pulling on the chain. She turns and Xander catches her, hoisting her up onto his shoulders and hitting the Valhalla has Fallen on Owens. Xander then turns as Polly is now unconscious from being choked by Wolf. Colleen and Aisling run out from the back. Wolf turns and smirks and exits by going over the barricade. She starts to exit as Aisling heads over to check on Polly and Colleen runs to the barricade. Xander covers Kelsai.

Xander rolls over. The bell sounds. He turns and undoes his dog collar quickly, causing Polly to fall to the mats. She rolls to her side as Aisling checks on her. Xander slowly gets up.

Phillips: “Here is your winner, via pinfall, Xander Valentine!”

Xander then turns and looks over at Polly before getting up. The official raises his arm as Xander looks around. He then looks at Chance and Kelsai and nods before turning and walking to the ropes. He steps over the ropes and down to the floor.

Sharper: “Polly unconscious as Xander uses Kelsai to keep both her and Chance down. Xander through brute force surviving at the end.”

Knots: “That’s a message or two.”

Sharper: “Think Holly was watching.”

Knots: “Why would she?”

Xander Valentine continues to head to the back as Colleen turns back, checking on Polly, joining Aisling.

The Fatal Fortunes logo comes up on the screen.

Sharper: “And from this brawl, what awaits us next!”

We cut to the big screen as we see a shot of a wheel of various matches spinning before flashing on matches like steel cage, underground, strap match, and others, before another ring spins showing various configurations: singles, tag, triple threat and so on. They both spin before the screen flashes and shows “Singles Boiler Room Brawl.” The crowd cheers.

Sharper: “The Boiler Room Brawl. We’ve not seen one in ages. And we’re going to see one when we return. Who will duke it on in the depths of the Scotiabank Saddledome?!”

The scene fades to commercial.

Backstage, we cut to show a shot of the outside of the Calgary Saddledome. The crowd cheers seeing their home arena.

Sharper: “Welcome to Calgary for night one of Fatal Fortunes. We are still waiting to see when and if Selena Frost will return.”

Knots: “Haven’t seen the bus.”

Sharper: “Maybe taking a different tact. That and still to come, multiple titles to be decided, either tonight or next week .Underground, Adrenaline, World Title. So much more to come!”

The Enigma vs. Glory Braddock

Boiler Room Brawl

We open up backstage to see Glory Braddock walking down the hallway with Brittany Lohan a few steps behind. Jennifer Cassidy joins Glory.

Braddock: “So Boiler Room Brawl, huh?”

Cassidy: “Yes. Your opponent is already inside.”

Lohan: “We can make this simple.”

Braddock: “Let’s see who it is.”

Braddock then opens the door and the camera angle changes as Braddock steps inside. She steps forward only for the door to slam shut. Glory turns back.

Braddock: “Nice.”

Glory then steps forward and looks around.

Sharper: “Glory Braddock one of the two individuals in this boiler room brawl. The opponent already in there.”

Knots: “Just turn around and leave. That’s how you win right? You get out of the boiler room?”

Sharper: “That’s true. Maybe Glory is going to be sporting. There is a degree of integrity there.”

Knots: “You want a tag title shot. Don’t risk the injury.”

Glory steps forward before then turning and grabbing a metal pipe, placed on a stack of items. She looks around before the camera turns as we see a black mist billowing in the back. The crowd roars as Glory looks at this and then turns.

Glory: “So…you…”

The Enigma is then heard.

Enigma: “Just the latest lamb to the slaughter. Fate has chosen this. And you will be the perfect message.”

Braddock: “Like hell I will, mate.”

Braddock turns as we then hear something fall in the background. Glory heats this and turns and starts to walk forward. She keeps brandishing the pipe, stepping forward, partially maintaining her ground, but every once and a while, glancing back to the door. Glory steps forward before we hear another item falling to the ground. Glory stops and turns.

Glory: “Stop with the games and fight me!”

Glory looks around.

Glory: “I’ve dealt with people like you before. All parlour tricks and-“

Before Glory can finish, The Enigma appears behind her and grabs her and turns and spins her around and throws her into the wall. Glory falls down and rolls over and then quickly scrambles to her feet. The Enigma is gone. She then looks down as the black smoke billows along the ground.

Glory: “Hit and run?! Really?”

No response as Glory looks around. She runs her arms, suggesting the coldness that has also accompanied The Enigma in the past. She then walks forward and reaches forward for the pipe, but realizes it’s not there. She then gets up and The Enigma suddenly runs at her and clotheslines her down. The camera follows her down before moving back up and then we see The Enigma gone again. Braddock winces and starts to get up and looks around before The Enigma runs across again and clotheslines her down again. The Enigma vanishes into the void this time as Glory looks around. She then gets up, wiping down her arms, as the smoke covers her body. She then gets up and walks forward and sees a chair. She then grabs it and folds it up in anger. She then turns.

Braddock: “Try that again!”

Braddock looks around. The Enigma remains silent as Braddock walks around before suddenly a shelf with various tools, pipes and fitting falls over. Glory jumps back. She then turns and expects the Enigma to come from one direction, only for at the last moment, Glory to turn and The Enigma runs at her, grabbing her, but Glory nails him in the face with the chair. She then nails him in the ribs with the end of the chair. Glory hoists the chair up and slams it in his back. He then drops to the ground. He then doesn’t move. Glory looks at the Enigma, kicking him.

Braddock: “The hell is this guy…”

Sharper: “A series of chair shots. The Enigma down.”

Knots: “Not moving. Don’t tell me it was that easy.”

Braddock then looks at him.

Braddock: “Not giving you the chance to trick me again.”

Braddock then slams the chair into the Enigma’s back again and then again and again. Braddock then looks at The Enigma. She then throws the chair down before starting to back away. She looks at The Enigma before turning and starting to walk away. She takes a few steps before the camera turns and we see the black smoke has completely covered the body. Glory moves to the door and stops. She then glances back. She notices this too.

Knots: “The hell did he go?”

Sharper: “Maybe the smoke has gone over him…just cover him. This is just all mind games…Glory, just leave!”

Braddock: “He’s a man. Just he’s…”

Braddock storms over to where The Enigma was and stomps on it before stomping the ground. She then stops and looks around and shakes her head. She then turns and looks around, over to the side and then back before suddenly, The Enigma grabs her from behind, spinning her around and hoisting her up in a double choke. He looks right in the eyes of Glory as Glory struggles. He then throws her down to the ground. Braddock rolls over in pain and The Enigma grabs her and turns and hip throws her onto the back of the shelf that was knocked over early. Glory hits and rolls over in pain. She then gets up and swings, but The Enigma blocks it and headbutts her and runs her over and into a stack of boxes, causing them to fall over her.

Enigma: “Still acting strong…your will is failing you, Ms. Braddock. You have conquered all, but not this!”

The Enigma grabs Glory and then scoops her up and spins her around and slams her on the ground with the Cryptic Slam. Glory rolls over, coughing from the impact. She reaches forward, trying to find anything. She then starts to move, forcing herself up as The Enigma stands over her. Glory crawls forward and grabs at something. He then grabs her by the head, but Glory grabs a pipe and turns and nails The Enigma in the side. He goes down. Glory then scrambles forward, not looking back. The camera keeps up with her as she reaches the door to the boiler room and gets up and reaches up and turns back, only to then look stunned and then open the door. The camera turns back to again show the Enigma is seemingly not there. Glory then steps into the hallway, slamming the door behind her.

Sharper: “And Glory fight out and gets out!”

Knots: “Where the hell is he? Where did he go?”

The bell sounds.

Phillips: “Here is your winner, Glory Braddock.”

Braddock turns around where Lohan walks over to her. She shakes her head.

Braddock: “What the hell was that?”

Braddock looks down as we then see black smoke billowing under the door. Braddock turns to Lohan. Lohan and her look at the door before Lohan pulls her away.

Lohan: “Ignore it. Focus on what’s ahead.”

Lohan and Braddock leave the scene before we see Crystal Zdunich and Diamond Steele running to the door. They both have some lumber in their hands and have a drill and some screws. They quickly each place pieces of lumber up on the door and then start to screw it in. Jennifer Cassidy tries to get them to stop.

Sharper: “And Zdunich and Steele, both of whom have been targeted by The Enigma are trapping him inside!”

Knots: “Holmes on Homes over here! Need to deal with a dark spirit or something!”

They get the first up before then doing another board and screwing it into place. They then add a couple more screws for good measure. Crystal then grabs the door knob and turns it, trying to open the door, but it doesn’t budge. Crystal nods and backs up.

Crystal: “Deal with that you stupid voodoo jackass.”

Crystal Zdunich backs up as Diamond Steele joins her and the two head off as the scene cuts to commercial.

Breakdown returns as we see crew members gathered around the door to the boiler room. The door is still barricaded as black smoke billows under it. The crew members all look at the door, some with crowbars in hand. A couple of officials come over, including Hiro Tanaka.

Tanaka: “Why aren’t we taking off the wood?”

The crew members look at one another.

Crew member 1: “Do…do we have to?”

Tanaka: “There is someone trapped inside-“

Crew member 1: “Someone? That’s no someone.”

Crew member 2: “Yeah…you want to save him. Do it yourself. I got a bad feeling about this.”

The crew members throw down the crowbars as Tanaka turns and looks at the door and then the smoke and then grabs a crowbar himself. He then looks at the door, reluctant to move forward. He then steps back.

Tanaka: “I’m going to need help.”

Tanaka heads off as the scene cuts away.

We cut to the big screen as we see a shot of a wheel of various matches spinning before flashing on matches like steel cage, underground, strap match, and others, before another ring spins showing various configurations: singles, tag, triple threat and so on. They both spin before the screen flashes and shows “Tag Team Championship Dumpster Match.” The crowd cheers.

We see a dumpster being rolled down to the ring by crew members. The crowd looks on, some buzzing. A few fans take pictures with their phones.

Sharper: “A dumpster match…we’ve not seen one in a while.”

Knots: “We had a casket match earlier and now this.”

Sharper: “And for the SCW World Tag Team Championship.”

The dumpster is placed next to the ring. The crew members make sure the dumpster is put in position.

Cassie Wolfe & Holly Adams vs. The Light in the Darkness

Dumpster Match

SCW World Tag Team Championship

All of a sudden, the lights go out, prompting a surprised pop from the fans. “In the Name of Love” by Arion feat. Cyan Kicks begins to play, the LED screens flickering to life to show a large wisteria tree in front of a starry night sky with a beautiful moon, the stars seeming like they’re slowly shifting and dancing around as petals from the tree fall and gracefully glide through the sky. One spotlight comes to life on the left side of the stage from the camera’s perspective, revealing Amelia Blythe standing underneath it, eyes focused on the ring and a small smile on her lips as her hands are folded in front of her, giving her the look of a proper young lady. A second spotlight comes to life on the right side of the stage, revealing La Pequeña Luz standing underneath it with the kind of grin that could light up a room all on its own as she motions with her hands for the fans to get pumped up, which they immediately proceed to do. They both wear the SCW World Tag Team Championship and Luz has the SCW Television Championship. The two slowly turn their attention to one another and begin closing the distance, their spotlights following them as they stop within arm’s reach of one another, where Amelia extends her hand and Luz takes it before they pull their bodies close, the spotlights merging into one piercing through the darkness.

Phillips: “The following contest is a dumpster match for the SCW World Tag Team Championship! First, the champions, they are the SCW World Tag Team Championship, the team of Amelia Blythe and the SCW Television Champion, La Pequena Luz, The Light in the Darkness!”

When the song goes into the chorus, the two ladies begin to literally waltz their way down to the ring, fast and fluid to keep pace with the song as the spotlight follows their every move, leaving fans mesmerized by their synergy. As the chorus reaches its end and the two find themselves at the bottom of the ramp, they push away from one another as far as their arms will allow without letting go before quickly pointing to the LED screens with their free hands, where the night scene is immediately engulfed in white before transitioning to a video package of the two ladies in action, both together and individually. Slowly, the two release one another, the single spotlight splitting in two again as Amelia makes her way up the steps to walk across the apron on one side, wiping her feet before stepping through the ropes. Luz, meanwhile, hops up onto the apron right in front of her and grabs the top rope before vaulting herself into a somersault into the ring, landing on her feet. She moves to the center of the ring and drops to her knees, cupping her hands together in front of her while Amelia stands right behind her, hands folded before her once again. As Luz lifts her cupped hands upward, the arena lights slowly begin to come back on as Amelia takes her hands and pulls her to her feet, spinning her around one final time into a tight embrace and a soft kiss before the two move to their corner to prepare for battle, with both girls shedding their robes and Amelia also removing her mask. They hand off the titles to the officials on the floor. The SCW World Tag Team Championship logo comes across the screen.

Sharper: “Another unique match for Light in the Darkness. The big other question is what condition Luz is in after competing earlier tonight.”

Knots: “We only have one more match after this, so at least she can stay statistically, she won’t be defending her TV Title tonight.”

Amelia and Luz walk around the ring.

IT'S EXPENSIVE TO BE ME-EH-EH-EH!!

LOOKIN' THIS GOOD DON'T COME FOR FREE-EH-EH-EH!!!

The intro from "W Face," by Kumi Koda quickly fades out as "XXPENSIVE," By Erika Jayne kicks in full force around the arena as the stage comes into focus. Holly Adams steps up onto the stage, spinning into place at the top of the ramp, behind her a gaggle of men in black shirts reading, "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills crew," holding TV cameras come running out capturing everything. Holly poses with her hand on her hip and her other hand high in the air as she pageant waves to the booing crowd. The camera men start directing Holly who continues to pose at the top of the ramp. Amelia and Luz smirk.

Phillips: “The challengers, first, representing the Holly Adams Brand, from Los Angeles, California, she is Holly Adams!”

Holly starts her walk down to the ring, continuing her pageant wave, with a large smile on her face as the crowd continues to jeer, the camera men following closely behind her. She stops halfway down the ramp and puts both hands on her chest thanking a fan for their "adoration," for her. She smiles before continuing down the ramp. She walks to the other side of the ramp, pretending to put her hands out to high five and immediately pulls them away and goes back to pageant waving. Some men from the camera crew can be heard shouting to each other over the music that they'll edit that into a high five in post.

As she comes around the corner, she hops up onto the ring apron. Holly starts to sing along with her theme song, looking directly into the camera closest to her. She gives a million-dollar smile before putting her hand on the camera and pushing it away and she gets into the ring. The Housewives' crew follow behind her from around the ring and start getting various shots of her from every angle.

Holly then grabs the top rope, bends down, and then snaps back quickly, flipping her blonde hair over her head, smiling brightly for the cameras. As she takes her place in the ring, she starts her pageant wave once again as her music dies down, the Housewives Crew taking their place in Holly's corner ready to capture everything.

Knots: “What? In a dumpster match? And with another partner!”

Sharper: “Holly Adams wanted a tag title match a few weeks ago. She’s getting it. I don’t think she’s realized the type of match.”

Knots: “It’s a dumpster match Sharper. That is a woman who should be as far from them as possible!”

Holly Adams continues to play to the crowd. She then turns and motions to the back.

Holly: “GiGi! Cidnay!”

Holly turns before the opening riff of “Wolf Within” hits the speakers and once the lyrics kick in Cassie Wolfe emerges from the back excited to start the match, with her hands on her leather jacket’s sides the rookie wrestler turns her back to the crowd. Holly looks at the back stunned before turning to the official and then turning and seeing the dumpster, her eyes widening.

Phillips: “And her partner, from Greenock, South Australia and now residing in Las Vegas, Nevada, “The Rebel Princess” Cassie Wolfe!”

When her name is announced Cassie spins around flashing the metal horns sign with her left hand and clapping fans hands with the other, when she reaches the ring Cassie jumps onto the apron before giving her hair a full flip and removing her jacket to give to a stagehand, she then jumps over the top rope and into the ring, rolling to her knees and basking in the moment. Holly turns and walks over to her and gets in her face. Cassie Wolfe slowly gets up and turns, LITD standing behind her. Holly looks at them before looking around.

Sharper: “Cassie Wolfe is Holly Adams’s partner and this is an interesting turn of affairs. Wolfe and Light in the Darkness were teammates at Rise to Greatness against the Holly Adams Brand.”

Knots: “Well Wolfe better follow Holly if she wants to have gold! You have Holly Adams as your teammate. Just follow her. Guaranteed title win!”

Holly starts to back up as the bell sounds. Cassie then looks at her. She says if they can be partners. Holly backs up and turns and then stops, looking right at the dumpster. She then turns and points at it and then turns to a crew member.

Holly: “What the hell is this?”

Cassie walks over.

Cassie: “It’s a dumpster.”

Holly: “I don’t go near dumpsters like you and them! I don’t-“

Cassie then grabs Holly and drags her over to the ropes. Holly starts to flail, trying to get away. She then turns and pulls away before running into Light in the Darkness and swinging. Amelia ducks and Holly hits the ropes before Amelia catches her and hits an exploder suplex into Luz who catches her into a sitout powerbomb. The crowd ohs. Holly rolls away as Luz and Amelia get up and Wolfe turns and looks at them and shrugs before running past Luz and forearming Amelia. She then turns and kicks Luz as she gets up and turns and hits a dropkick to Amelia. Amelia falls through the ropes to the apron. Wolfe then turns and forearms Luz in the jaw once and then again and again before Luz spins her into the ropes.

Sharper: “Wolfe going to try and do this maybe herself.”

Knots: “After she tried to send Holly into the dumpster!”

Sharper: “Trying to help her get over her fear.”

Knots: “Hey!”

Luz then backs up and hits a Judo throw, sending Wolfe across the ring. Wolfe rolls through and gets up and turns and Luz jumps up and hits a dropkick. Wolfe rolls over and starts to get up only for Luz to grab her and whip her across the ring. Amelia stands on the apron and Luz tags her in. Amelia enters.

Sharper: “Amelia and Luz tagging. They don’t need to in this format.”

Knots: “So they’re idiots.”

Sharper: “Or they have respect for Wolfe.”

Amelia turns and runs across as Luz runs at Wolfe, but Wolfe gets a boot up. Wolfe steps up and Amelia hits a European uppercut. Wolfe steps back and Amelia grabs her and whips her across the ring. Wolfe bounces off and Amelia hits a powerslam. She rolls over and gets up. She turns and grabs Wolfe and pulls her up before turning and throwing her through the ropes to the apron, right by the dumpster. The open dumpster away as Amelia then turns and nails Wolfe with a forearm shot and then another. She then backs up and goes for a European uppercut, but Wolfe spins through and catches her before pulling her over. Blythe kicks her legs and lands on the apron. She staggers forward. Blythe turns around and Wolfe jumps up and hits a frankensteiner off the apron into the dumpster. The crowd ohs as both go in. Holly then comes up from around and pushes the flaps over, closing the dumpster. Holly throws her arms up in the air.

Sharper: “Wolfe sending herself and Blythe into that dumpster!”

Knots: “Holly won it! She won it! She closed it!”

Sharper: “You have to close both of your opponents in there.”

Knots: “Holly has three opponents!”

Holly jumps up and down.

Holly: “That’s right! New Tag Champion!”

Holly smiles and walks around the entrance way and turns back before Luz runs across the ring and jumps to the top rope before then hitting a flip dive over the dumpster and onto Holly Adams in the entrance way. The crowd erupts in cheers.

Sharper: “La Pequena Luz taking flight!”

Knots: “She just cleared that dumpster!”

Holly rolls over as the dumpster flaps open. Cassie Wolfe slowly sticks her head out and looks around. She then pulls herself up and drops down to the floor. Luz starts to get up and Wolfe turns and heads over and forearms Luz in the jaw. Amelia slowly pulls herself up too. Wolfe nails Luz again and then grabs Luz and runs her over to the ring and rolling her back in. Wolfe rolls in after. Luz rolls over and gets up and Wolfe runs at her and hits the Greenest Wizard. The crowd ohs. Wolfe rolls over. Wolfe then grabs Luz and starts to pull her up as she turns and looks at the Dumpster. She gets Luz up, but Amelia rolls into the ring and then steps up and drills Wolfe with a running European uppercut.

Sharper: “Amelia cutting off Wolfe as Wolfe trying to act quick.”

Knots: “Trying to divide and conquer. Good. Get rid of one so Holly can properly coach you to relevancy!”

Wolfe rolls over and gets up and staggers up only for Amelia to grab her by the head and arm. She spins her around and hits the Cutting Ties. The crowd ohs. Amelia rolls over and Wolfe rolls over, shaking out her arm. She slowly stirs as Amelia grabs Luz and pulls her up. Luz turns and exits to the apron. She then starts to get up as Wolfe slowly gets up to her hands and knees. Blythe heads over to Luz and grabs her and then hits the Spicy Toss onto Wolfe. The crowd ohs. Luz rolls over as Holly then rolls in with one of the World Tag Team Championship belts and gets up and runs at Amelia and nails her with the title, cracking her in the jaw. Amelia goes down. Holly drops the title and staggers forward. She then turns and looks at Luz as she gets up. Holly goes to grab the title, but can’t before changing her mind and hitting the Beauty Killer on Luz.

Sharper: “Light in the Darkness got Wolfe down, but Holly managing to sneak around, grabbing the World Tag Team Championship and using it as a weapon.”

Knots: “All legal. Just using what’s available to her. She’s in a war for her life. Do you want to go into a dumpster?”

Sharper: “Not particularly.”

Knots: “And you know what they are! You eat out of them regularly!”

Holly looks around and then turns and heads over to Wolfe and kicks at her. Holly looks at her before nudging her again.

Holly: “Come on! Time for me to lead you to greatness!”

Wolfe rolls over and looks around and to Holly. Holly turns and motions for her to get up. Wolfe starts to get up and looks at Amelia and Luz. Holly pulls up Luz and moves her into the corner and hits a couple of hard shoot kicks to the chest, over and over. Wolfe forearms Amelia in the jaw once and then again and again. She then jumps up and hits a dropkick. Amelia falls over to the mat. Wolfe then steps back as Holly motions for Wolfe to get into position. She moves to the ropes and Holly then rakes the eyes of Luz for good measure before whipping her across the ring. Luz runs at Cassie and Cassie goes to back drop her up and over to the dumpster, but Luz spins through and lands on her apron. Wolfe turns and Luz hits a guillotine drop. She staggers back and Holly runs at Luz and forearms her with a shot. She forearms her again before Amelia runs up behind Holly and clubs her in the back. She then clubs her again before hoisting her up as if going for a high angle back suplex. She then turns and moves her to Luz. Luz reaches over and guides Holly down, throwing her into the dumpster. The crowd erupts in cheers.

Sharper: “Holly Adams into the dumpster!”

Knots: “No! No! Get her out! Get her out!”

Amelia smiles and turns and Wolfe hits a frankensteiner on her. She then gets up and runs at Luz. Luz forearms her. Luz then pulls Wolfe onto the apron. Wolfe slowly gets up and Luz forearms her once and then again before going for a spinning back fist, but Wolfe ducks and then lifts Luz up, sitting her on the middle rope. Wolfe then kicks her hard in the back. Luz lies on the middle rope.

Sharper: “Wolfe fighting. Holly still in the dumpster, but Luz in a bad place.”

Knots: “Good! Kick her again and harder!”

Wolfe turns and moves to the corner. She then springboards to the top rope. The crowd roars as Luz remains on the middle rope. Wolfe then steadies before diving off with a guillotine leg drop, but Amelia pulls on Luz and Luz goes into the ring. Wolfe misses and goes right into the dumpster. The crowd ohs. Amelia rolls to the floor and stumbles around before grabbing the flaps of the dumpster and turning them over, covering. The crowd roars as the bell sounds.

Sharper: “Wolfe missed! Amelia with the save! And Light in the Darkness retain!”

Knots: “Holly! Oh God! Wolfe probably landed on Holly!”

Sharper: “Most likely!”

Phillips: “Here are your winners, and still SCW World Tag Team Champions, The Light in the Darkness!”

Amelia turns and rolls back into the ring. She slowly gets up as Luz walks over and embraces her. The two get up as they are then handed their titles. They hold them over their heads as the crowd cheers. Amelia looks and the dumpster as we see Cidnay, GiGi Aries and LHS heading to the ring to go to the dumpster.

The Fatal Fortunes logo comes up on the screen. We cut to the big screen as we see a shot of a wheel of various matches spinning before flashing on matches like steel cage, underground, strap match, and others, before another ring spins showing various configurations: singles, tag, triple threat and so on. They both spin before the screen flashes and shows “Singles World Championship.” The crowd cheers.

Sharper: “And that’s what awaits us…the World Title on the line. Asher Hayes get ready.”

Knots: “But who will get the shot?!”

Sharper: “We’ll find out when we return! Our main event, it’s next!”

The scene fades to black.

COMMERCIALS

James Evans vs. Asher Hayes

SCW World Championship

Phillips: “The following contest is the main event of night one of Fatal Fortunes and is scheduled for onefall with a thirty minute time limit and is for the SCW World Championship!”

The SCW World Championship logo comes across the screen before fading to the bottom corner. The opening riff to "Smooth Sailing" by Queens of the Stone Age kicks in. At the 11 second mark, the name "Asher Hayes" blares through the PA system, and Asher appears on the stage, wearing a long leather jacket and sunglasses. The SCW World Championship is around his waist.

“It's all in motion, no stoppin' it now
I got nothing to lose and only one way up
I'm burning bridges, I destroy the mirage
All visions of collisions, fucking bon voyage"

Phillips: “First, on his way to the ring, from Chicago, Illinois, he is the SCW World Champion, Asher Hayes!”

He makes his way down the ramp as the reaction of the crowd rain down upon him. He walks up the ring steps and climbs to the top turnbuckle, lifting both fists into the air, slinging the jacket off his shoulders, simply looking at the crowd before dropping down and running to the opposite side.

“I got bruises and hickies, stitches and scars
Got my own theme music, plays wherever I are
Fear is the hand that pulls your strings
A useless toy, pitiful plaything
I'm in flagrante
In every way
Every day"

He stands, once again, on the top rope. He removes his shades as he looks toward the ceiling, before dropping down, removing his jacket and handing his belongings to the ref.

"It's all smooth sailing
From here on out
I'm gon' do the damage
That needs getting done"

Asher then leans into the corner, waiting for the match to begin. Demitra takes the World Title from him and holds it over his head.

Sharper: “Asher Hayes going to get this out of the way tonight. But could he quickly find himself no longer champion. Who awaits him?”

Knots: “He’s at the top of the mountain. He’s going to hold on for dear life. He’s wanted this for a decade and a half!”

The opening of “Blood Eagle can be heard blaring through the PA system. The camera will pan through the curtain as the face of James Evans appears, igniting a negative reaction from the crowd, as they shower him in jeers. The camera remains on James as he breaks through the curtain. The SCW Underground Championship sits around his waist. The boos intensify as James looks out at the crowd. From the back, follows Pain, Mordred, Harker, and Lues.

Phillips: “His opponent, accompanied by the House of James, he is the SCW Underground Champion, James Evans!”

The House of James slowly makes his way to the ring, as images of James winning various championships and hitting various moves appear on the screen. They reach the ring, surrounding it, before James makes his way up the ring steps, before turning and facing the crowd, who continue to boo. They all stare at the crowd before looking at one another. James then goes to the corner and sits on the top turnbuckle, his back to the crowd, as the screen shows James lifting the SCW World title above his head, as his music comes to an end. Asher Hayes points at the screen, telling them to get that off of it. Evans slides his Underground Championship to the House of James members as Asher turns back. Evans looks at him.

Sharper: “Oh my God. James Evans, the former World Champion, he gets the fateful draw.”

Knots: “And Asher already causing problems. I mean James is just taunting him with that on the screen.”

Sharper: “And imagine if James wins this. To the have the World Title, for his new message of violence, to try and undermine it through its use and just outdueling everyone in it.”

Knots: “Thankfully for Asher, it’s a normal match. So let him try. Take the chair shot like a man, Asher, and you walk out still champion!”

Sharper: “That’s if James goes that route.”

The bell sounds as Asher looks around and then turns to James Evans before starting to say something only for Evans to take him down with a double leg takedown. Evans then rolls through and into a side headlock. Hayes kicks at the mat as Evans pulls on the head, but Asher then moves to the ropes. Evans holds on as Asher gets to the bottom rope.

Hayes: “Come on! Hit me! Do it! Use the violence! Yeah!”

Hayes then closes his eyes.

Sharper: “Hayes is asking the House of James to attack him.”

Knots: “Disqualification, baby!”

Sharper: “Hayes trying to take the easy way out.”

Hayes looks at Mordred again and then closes his eyes.

Hayes: “Aren’t you man enough?!”

Just then, Evans pulls Asher up by the hair and onto the apron. The crowd roars and Evans pulls Asher through the ropes and knees him in the chest once and then again and again before pulling him into the ring. Hayes rolls over in pain. He starts to get up and Evans walks over and shoulders him into the corner. The crowd ohs. Evans rears back and shoulders him again. He then pushes back on him as the official counts.

Sharper: “Hayes just low blowed Evans, but because of the angle, the official couldn’t see it.”

Knots: “Well Demitra, trust Hayes. Hayes tell him what you did!”

Sharper: “He may stay outside for the countout now.”

Hayes then smiles as he then nails Evans with a hard right. (8) Evans falls back and Hayes stomps him before Pain then climbs onto the apron. He climbs to the top rope.

Phillips: “Here is your winner, via pinfall, and still SCW World Champion, Asher Hayes!”

Sharper: “Hayes retains, taking advantage of Kim coming down here.”

Knots: “I don’t know if that was Kim’s plan, but then again, I don’t think she had a plan.”

Sharper: “She’s out here for blood. Maybe just wanted to make sure House of James didn’t get a new member!”

Knots: “If that’s what they were talking about!”

Hayes backs up and moves around the announce table. He then looks at the ring as Kim then swings at Mordred, causing the chair to bend and then she rears back as Datura comes to the ring, grabbing the bat by the end, tearing up her hands and pulling it away.
