MAIN SHOW:
The opening bars of “The Old
Me” by Memphis May Fire play as the Breakdown logo flies across the screen.
I'm thinking about the old me
'Cause I've been feeling empty
I never used to be so dead
inside
Shots of Selena Frost
celebrating with the World Championship start before we see a shot of the
Konrad Raab, bloodied, standing tall in the ring.
Following this is Cid Turner punching CHBK in the concourse. Ace Marshall
hitting the Air Marshall on an opponent follows.
I think I lost my memory
I can't remember carefree
And all my days turn into
fight or flight
Holly Adams standing on Asher
Hayes at Tactical Warfare follows before we see Syren
hitting the Total Makeover on an opponent. Bree Lancaster hitting the
Classifier on Aaron Blackbourne follows before we see
Polly Playtime diving off the top rope and landing on an opponent with a crossbody..
I wanna
get back, tell me how to get back
I wanna
get back, tell me how to get back
Holly Adams throwing Syren into the windshield of a pink convertible follows
before we see Kandis and Tommy Valentine holding the SCW World Tag Team
Championship. Ravyn Taylor standing on the ropes,
looking down at herself, follows before we see Gavin Taylor hitting an opponent
with the Gavin Taylor Lariat. Glory Braddock hitting the London Plunge on a
downed opponents is next before we see Tsunami hitting a running body avalanche
on an opponent in the corner.
Say it again, say it again,
tell me what I wanna hear
Tell me that I'm gonna be fine and there's nothing left to fear
'Cause I've been losing sleep
(losing sleep)
Trying to get back to who I
used to be
Where is the old me?
Autumn Valentine hitting the Blindspot
on a foe follows before we see a shot of Owen Lee and Daisy Lee on their way to
the ring, and then a shot of Kimberly Williams licking a staple gun. The
Breakdown logo comes up on the screen and remains on it for a few moments.
We then cut to a live shot of
the inside of the Scotiabank Saddledome in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The
cameras pan across the crowd for a few moments.
Sharper: “The Road to Rise to
Greatness continues as we return north of the border to one of wrestling’s
great cities in Calgary….Alberta, Canada!”
The cameras continue to pan
across the crowd. After a few moments, the cameras cut to the announce position
where Adam Sharper, Jonathan Knots and Simon Lyman sit.
Sharper: “Welcome to ringside.
I’m Adam Sharper alongside Jonathan Knots and Simon Lyman and folks, big night
tonight. World Tag Team Championship on the line.”
The Breakdown logo comes up on
the screen as we see a shot of Holly Adams and GiGi
Aries vs. The Happy Farmstead Friends for the World Tag Team Championship.”
Lyman: “Big night indeed and
after last week, the Friends were helped by the Brand, we now know what that
contract was that they had them sign. It was for their match tonight. The Brand
could walk out with more gold.”
Sharper: “At a time where Cid
Turner may be less and less inclined to side with them. He left early last
week. Datura then greeted by GiGi to end the show.
What is going on with the Brand?”
The Breakdown logo comes up
again as we see a shot of Selena Frost vs. Owen Lee.
Knots: “Yeah, but what’s going
to be going on with Selena Frost and Owen Lee. Adam Allocco will have a front
row seat. Selena wanted him to watch. Selena’s arrogance has her going up
against Owen Lee. And Lee has all of the arrogance in
the world too. Let’s see them both get a taste of their hubris tonight!”
Sharper: “Big main event and-“
As the spotlights flash across
the stage and the video screens come to life, “Cynics and Critics” by Icon For Hire hits the PA system.
“We’re not cynics; we just
don’t believe a word you say
We’re not critics, we just hate it all anyway”
The crowd roars as we see Lexy
Chapel walk out from the back with Lionel Barkz,
which gets a roar from the crowd. Autumn Valentine walks out too getting more
cheers. Lexy bends over and pets Lionel Barkz, Lawyer
Dog, before starting to head to the ring, on a mission. Autumn follows a few
steps behind them.
Sharper: “And we ended last
week with Autumn Valentine coming out to get her hands on Datura, only for
Alexis Quinne to stop her and then GiGi Aries to come out.”
Lyman: “You have to wonder
what she’s thinking, but while Autumn is coming out, that’s Lexy’s music and
she’s got Lawyer Dog and I think we’ve got some shenanigans coming.”
They reach the ring and Lexy
leads Lionel Barkz up the steel steps and into the
ring. Autumn pulls herself up onto the apron and steps in. Barkz
looks around, his eyes darting from all of the people
in the Saddledome. Autumn walks around the ring as Lexy walks over and demands
a microphone. Jason Phillips hands her one and she takes it before walking to
the middle of the ring.
Chapel: “Fans of SCW, Manager
of the Year, LEXY CHAPEL here and I have a problem!”
The crowd roars as Autumn
walks around the ring.
Chapel: “Last week, we saw the
most OBVIOUS forms of tampering and stealing, and skeeziness
and it’s totally not okay. I mean, clearly Bear was in trouble, hitting on
Holly Adams. He would never hit on Holly. I mean not with me and Autumn right
there and we’re hot. Right?”
Autumn looks confused at
Chapel’s logic and walks over. Chapel stops her.
Chapel: “And after everything,
trying to steal my clients, the World Tag Team Champions, now they have conned
them into a World Tag Team Title match and well, that’s not going to happen
without me having something to say about it and I’ve brought the finest legal
mind we have in Lionel Barkz, Esq. to deliver a brief
and-“
Autumn walks over and grabs
the microphone and places her hand over it. Lexy looks up at Autumn. Lexy nods
as Autumn steps back.
Autumn: “Lexy’s going to still
be angry. And let’s face it, we all know what happened. You took two people
running for their lives and used that against them. Really nice business. Again
– great advertising for the brand.”
Autumn shrugs.
Autumn: “But that seems what
you do. What Holly does, what Giovanni does, what Cid does…take advantage of
people who are at their lowest place-“
Lexy moves in.
Lexy: “NOTHING at all like
what I did. I helped give Autumn confidence and helped her reach her potential
and now we’re in LOVE!”
Lexy turns and looks at Autumn
as the crowd roars. Autumn turns and looks at her.
Autumn: “Yes…and thank you
Lexy.”
Autumn pauses a moment.
Autumn: “But you’re starting
to become more and more of my problem. Because I said if Datura got involved at
Taking Hold of the Flame, she would regret it. I’m not going to just step
aside. Not after everything. Not when two years ago, some of you wouldn’t have
even been able to tell your kids who I was if you saw me at the supermarket.
Yeah, I didn’t give any Effs. Oh, I do now, and I’m not going to just stand
back and watch as people get in our business scot-free. And I don’t even know
where to start.”
Autumn pauses. Lexy holds her
hand up as if to ask a question.
Autumn: “Thanks Lexy, but it
was rhetorical.”
Lexy smiles and lets out a
brief “oh!”
Autumn: “Do I start with
Datura….or the man who helped him up after Cid walked
off again…huh, GiGi? Or do I call out Alexis Quinne who saved Datura just as I was going to do to her
what she’s done to me multiple times…get involved, when she’s not paying
attention, and screwing everything up. Well-“
Opening strum of Rage Against
the Machine's Calm Like a Bomb plays. White house
lights illuminate the ramp.
Feel the funk blast
Feel the funk blast
FEEL THE FUNK BLAST
The song kicks it. The house lights turn blue, red, green, etc. Alexis Quinne walks out through the curtains. The crowd roars.
Autumn turns to the entrance way as Alexis Quinne
walks down from the back, holding a microphone.
Quinne: “We gonna
doing this. Let’s do it!”
The crowd cheers as she
reaches the ring. She hops onto the apron. Autumn goes to step forward, but
Lexy actually stops her. Quinne
steps up.
Quinne: “Yeah, hold her back. Not
going to do anything here.”
Quinne enters the ring and steps up as Autumn looks at
her.
Quinne: “Gotta
problem with me? Just come talk. I aint one to run. I
aint looking to attack from behind either. But no matter
how misguided she is, I aint gonna
let you attack her from behind-“
Autumn: “Then we have a
problem too. Because I should be standing here as Adrenaline Champion.”
Quinne: “Yeah, yeah. I get it. You
know what else I get? You knew it was happened…how about you just be better.”
The crowd ohs. Autumn turns
away before we cut to the entrance way as GiGi Aries
walks out, microphone in his hand. Datura walks out with him. The crowd boos
loudly.
GiGi: “Alexis….Autumn…please
don’t talk about our latest client as if she is something to be fought over.”
The crowd boos. Alexis turns
and looks down, clearly disappointed. Autumn glances at the stage and then to
Alexis before turning back.
GiGi: “See, the Brand, we are just
helping people and Datura already is showing great progress. Cid took her part
of the way…we’ll take her the rest. And if that means we need to make her goal
to defeat you Autumn to shut you up, so be it. But I think you and Lexy should
worry about other things. Accusing us not being truthful in our aims….you two have nothing to speak about.”
Autumn turns to Lexy as Lexy
thinks for a moment before her eyes widen. She steps forward, holding Autumn’s
microphone to her mouth.
Lexy: “You! What lies are you
spreading? You think because you went through my phone?! I knew she was up to
no good and-“
GiGi: “Then stay out of the
Brand’s way tonight in the Tag Title match and you’ll not have to find out what
we know…or don’t. Until then, let the nirvana wash over you. Think positively.
It’s good for everyone.”
“Instant Karma” by John Lennon
plays as GiGi turns to Datura who glances at the
ring. Alexis shakes her head as Autumn turns to Lexy as Lexy turns to Lionel Barkz, kneeling next to him and petting him, asking for
advice. Autumn glances back at Quinne. GiGi and Datura leave the stage, returning to the back.
Sharper: “A lot to unpack
here. Quinne and Valentine at each other’s throats.
Datura coming out with Aries, but what does the Brand know about Lexy Chapel?”
Lyman: “They called her a
liar. What’s on her phone?”
Knots: “Get off it. They’re
just messing with her.”
Sharper: “These are people
that planted a bug to expose Selena Frost. They know something.”
Quinne turns and looks at Autumn as
she exits the ring. She backs up as Autumn watches her and the scene fades to
black.
Backstage, we see Samuel Davis
in his wrestling gear. He takes a deep breath and gets up and turns to Where’s
the Beef? and Holly Adams.
Davis: “Alright. Let’s go-“
Holly: “Oh, honey…look, we’re
not going.”
Davis: “Uh…what?”
Holly: “GiGi
and I need to focus on our Tag Team Championship match. This is an opportunity
to show our new payment plan – goods in lieu of cash. For those who may not
have cash, but can offer other collateral to better
themselves.”
Davis: “But you just saved them-“
Holly: “And would they have
been better off dead?! I don’t want to go down that negativity, Samuel. So
tonight, you’re on your own. Step up and build yourself back up. A lesson in
self-reliance. You can do it!”
Davis: “Uh…but…GiGi was just out there…”
Holly: “Datura isn’t as far
along as you. Don’t know if that will ever be possible. But you….Go! Fly!”
Davis: “Uh…okay…”
Davis looks around and gulps
before exiting the locker room.
Sharper: “Samuel Davis faces
Sarah Wolf, next!”
The scene fades to black.

Breakdown returns as Jessica
Winters stands backstage in the SCW interview area.
Winters: “Welcome back to
Breakdown. Jessica Winters here and I’m pleased to be joined at this time with
SCW Hall of Famer, Christy Matthews. Christy…come join me here.”
Christy walks into the scene.
The crowd cheers.
Winters: “Christy, last week,
you came out and talked about how you wanted to get back to competing for the
US Championship. You also mentioned you had an injury that prevented you from
being in action at Taking Hold of the Flame and two weeks ago. You’ve yet to
return to the ring, but a lot of people are wondering whether that’s all. US
title situation has been clarified. Owen Lee will challenge Josh Hudson. Glory
Braddock, whom you confronted last week, is teaming with Danny Darko tonight in
his debut.”
Christy: “I don’t know what
you’re looking for here to respond there.”
Winters: “Well I think I’ll
ask a question that I’ve had several fans reach out to me to pass on to you.
Since Lucas Knight was attacked and has since not been seen…his brother Jacob
behind it. He left when Lucas left SCW too. You’ve been largely stepping up to
help others. You lost the US Title and seemed to be happy to move on for a
moment. But are you struggling to figure out live after the Order of Chaos
again?”
Christy looks down and nods.
Christy: “I don’t have a good
answer to that Jessica. Lucas and I teaming again was in many ways a shock for us but it felt so right and it was ended just like that. Add
then Lucas getting attacked by his brother, losing the Underground
Championship…I lost the US Championship to Spencer Pryce…can we even mention
him? Is he worth mentioning when he clearly was too immature for his own good. But…I focused on doing the right thing. Helping people
I called friends.”
Winters: “Making up for being
unable to help Lucas?”
Christy bites her lip a bit as
she wanted to say something else.
Christy: “I’m fine, Jessica. I
just felt I’d help friends. And now with them moving on to their own issues, no
longer needing someone to watch their back…or needing an ally for their wars, I
can focus on what I want. Simple as that. And what I want…it’s to get my US
title rematch. So I’m going to do what I can to earn
that opportunity and whether it’s Josh Hudson or Owen Lee, they better be
looking out for me.”
Winters: “Thanks for your
time, Christy.”
Christy nods and heads off.
Winters: “Back to ringside.”
The scene cuts to the ring.
Sarah Wolf vs. Samuel Davis

|| VIP Member ||

“One Shining Moment” by Luther Vandross plays as the crowd roars a bit. A few
moments pass before we see Samuel Davis walking out from the back alone. Davis
looks a bit nervous as he looks around. Samuel Davis then shakes his head and
turns back, leaning on the metal border of the curtain. He takes a moment
before turning around and taking a few deep breaths. He then starts to walk
down to the ring, his eyes darting around.
Phillips: “The following
contest is scheduled for onefall and has a ten minute time limit. First, from the Haüs
of Nirvana, he is Samuel Davis!”
Samuel reaches the ring and
grabs the bottom rope. He then stops and looks around. He then actually gives
the sign of the cross, before pulling himself into the ring. He then walks
around the ring, pacing more than anything.
Sharper: “Samuel Davis out here
alone as the Brand is focusing more on the World Tag Team Championship match
tonight.”
Knots: “I don’t think he’s
going to make it, but he has to. He has
to stand up and do it for himself. He has to
find those self-motivational techniques too!”
Sharper: “You do realize who
he’s facing.”
Knots: “Oh yeah. This is going
to be a slaughter.”
“When I Am Queen” by Jack Off
Jill plays as the lights dim. Davis starts to yell to turn the lights back on.
Davis looks around and then drops down to the floor. He backs up and to the
barricade. He looks around as he backs away from the ring and over to the
corner of the ringside area. He then looks around, but
failing to look behind him as we see Sarah Wolf slowly walking up behind him.
Sharper: “Look behind you Sammy!”
Knots: “Wait! Don’t! If you
don’t see it, she’s not real!”
Lyman: “That’s not how reality
works!”
Phillips: “His opponent, from
Nowhere….she is Sarah Wolf.”
Davis looks around.
Davis: “Why are you announcing
her-“
Wolf then grabs him from
behind by his extensions. She climbs over the barricade and still with her
death grip on him. She smirks before grabbing him and running him face first
into the ringpost. Davis spins off to the floor.
Sharper: “He forget she comes
from the crowd!”
Lyman: “And already into the ringpost goes Davis!”
Davis starts to get up,
reaching out for anything to help. Davis just stalks him before grabbing him
again by the hair. Davis however elbows her in the jaw. He rolls into the ring
and Davis turns, touching her lip. Davis backs up as Wolf slides into the ring.
She slowly gets up. Davis gets up too and referee Jennifer Cassidy calls for
the bell to start the match. The bell sounds.
Davis shakes his head no as drops down to the
floor. Wolf runs after him. Davis backs up and starts to run around the ring.
Wolf starts to run after him. (1) She stops though as Davis keeps running
around, not looking behind him. (2) Wolf watches him and turns as Davis runs
around the ring, doing a full lap. (3) He reaches the side where Wolf is and
Wolf gets a brief running start before just drilling Davis in the chest with a
hard single leg jump kick, both crashing to the mats. The crowd ohs. (4)
Sharper: “And Wolf waited…Davis is so rattled that Wolf just waited and drilled
him!”
Lyman: “Just got a running
start. A high kick to the chest and Davis is down!”
Wolf gets up, wincing a bit
from the impact, as Davis rolls over in pain. (5) Wolf grabs him again and
drags him up. (6) She rolls him into the ring. Davis rolls over as Wolf slides
in. Davis starts to get up and Wolf watches him before kicking him in the ribs,
nailing him with a hard right to the jaw. Davis turns and Wolf then steps up
and hits a back kick to the back of his head. Davis falls to the mat. He crawls
to the ropes and then rolls to the corner. He starts to pull himself up as Wolf
walks over and kicks him in the ribs before grabbing the top rope and starting
to go to town, kicking him over and over in the ribs, as he drops to a seated
position.
Sharper: “Wolf is just
decimating Davis.”
Knots: “This isn’t going to
help his progress. Some on Sarah! Step back. Be better! Be a star!”
Cassidy calls for the break.

Wolf gets one more shot in the
face and Davis’s head snaps back before rolling over. Wolf walks around the
ring. The official reprimands her but Wolf ignores and walks over to Davis and
grabs him by the head and pulls him up. He just drops to the mat through. Wolf
looks down, grabbing him by the hair and jerking him up, but Davis then nails
her with a hard right. Wolf is stunned by it and turns back
and Davis hits a clumsy dropkick, knocking Wolf back. Davis then turns and
moves to the ropes. Wolf gets up and crawls over and grabs his foot. Davis uses
his free foot to kick her in the face and then the chest, but Wolf jerks him
back in. He rolls through and grabs Wolf and attempts an inside cradle.

Wolf kicks out. Both get up
and Wolf drills him with a palm strike. His knees go and he staggers.
Sharper: “Davis tried for a
pin when the opportunity revealed itself-“
Knots: “Should’ve ran!”
Lyman: “And he’s out on his
feet!”
Wolf then steps up and grabs
him by the cheeks and pulls him in for the Exokiss.
Davis tries to get free as Wolf holds it for a few moment
before pulling away. She then looks at Davis before running her hand across her
mouth and then steps up and locks in the Black Hand. The crowd roars as she
pushes back on Davis. Davis falls to the mat, convulsing as Wolf keeps pushing
down. We then see Where’s the Beef jogging down and looking at Wolf. Wolf keeps
pressing down. Davis has his arm up, almost in desperation, but then it drops
as he starts to pass out from the pain. The official checks on Davis before
calling for the bell. The bell sounds.
Phillips: “Here is your
winner, via submission, Sarah Wolf!”
Wolf leans down on Davis for a
bit longer before pulling off and then starting to get up.
Sharper: “Just dominant!”
Knots: “Well if the Farmstead
Friends hoped that Wolf would be slowed by this…uh…try again.”
Davis rolls over as Where’s
the Beef? shows some concern and enters the ring and goes over to him. Wolf
looks around and walks around the ring as her music plays. She then turns and
sees Where’s the Beef? She smirks as Where’s the Beef? looks up at Wolf. She
then looks down and balls her fists before getting up, but before she can even
act, Wolf just nails her with a hard right and then another and another.
Where’s the Beef? staggers back to the corner as Wolf continues to follow up
with hard right hands, Dolled Up. Where’s the Beef? tries to cover up but Wolf
nails her over and over and over again. The bell
sounds again as the official tries to get her to stop.
Sharper: “Wolf saw Where’s the
Beef? Last week she and Davis tried to stop Wolf and Wolf hasn’t forgotten!”
Knots: “Where’s the Beef?
may!”
Lyman: “She’s just bludgeoning
her!”
Wolf gets a few more shots in
as Where’s the Beef? slumps down to the mat. Wolf then finally steps off. She
looks at her fist and then looks at Where’s the Beef? She glances back at Davis
and smirks, satisfied with her show of violence. Wolf then steps over Davis and
exits the ring. The official then checks on Where’s the Beef? Wolf then exits
the ringside area by climbing over the barricade. She walks through the crowd
before the scene cuts backstage.
Backstage, we see Katie
Steward talking to Shaun Cruze.
Katie: “So…as I have now returned, and shown myself to be back at peak condition. I
should have won the Taking Hold of the Flame, but I dispatched Gavin. And I’m
fresh…”
Cruze: “What do you want Katie?”
Katie: “Easy. I mean if people
can con themselves to a Tag Team Championship shot, I just want to remind you
there’s one title I’ve not held….and that’s it.”
Cruze: “And you want me to put the
Stewards there?”
Katie: “Of course. It seems
easy enough and I won’t even have to go through the tactics of some people. Right
TJ?”
TJ Johnson, who stands behind
Katie, nods.
Cruze: “Well Katie…you’ve just come
back and while Holly and GiGi Aries may have used
questionable methods. They have beaten the champions in the past. And the
challengers agreed to it. So either you get them to
agree or you’ll have to earn your shot.”
Katie scoffs.
Katie: “Excuse me…earn my
shot. Do you know who I am?”
Cruze: “I do Katie. And everyone has to earn their shot.”
Cruze turns and heads off as Katie
scoffs and turns to TJ.
Johnson: “Unbelievable. You’ve
already earned everything and more!”
Katie: “It’s fine…we’ll just
have to continue to show everyone that their Goddess is here to take what she
wants.”
Katie smiles as the scene
fades to black.

Chapel: “Of course he’s napping.
I…”
Penguin: “Well at least you’re

Autumn: “Just relax everyone.”
Penguin: “RELAX?!”
Penguin throws his arms up and
walks off as Autumn turns to Lexy.
Autumn: “Lexy, let’s start

Chapel: “Nothing! Nothing to worry

Lexy looks right at the

Lexy: “Nothing to worry about.”
She looks around as Autumn

Ace Sky vs. Deanna Frost
SCW Television Championship
A rocket drops from the top of
the entrance set to the stage and there is a countdown voice over.

“Eye In The
Sky” by The Alan Parsons Project play as Ace Sky walks out in an aviator jacket
and his usual in ring attire. He salutes a peace sign and jogs down the aisle
way high-fiving as many fans as possible on both
sides.
Phillips: “The following
contest is scheduled for onefall and has a fifteen minute time limit and is for the SCW Television
Championship. First, the challenger, from Houston, Texas, he is Ace Sky!”
Ace Sky dashes forward and
leaps upon the apron and flings himself in with a front flip followed by a
series of three front handsprings and a rolling savate
kick. He then looks around as Wolf sizes him up. He backs up to his corner,
taking off his jacket and preparing for battle.
Sharper: “Ace Sky looking to
rebound against a loss to Sarah Wolf. But this would be a hell of a rebound.”
Lyman: “Putting it mildly.
Could walk out with some SCW gold after tonight. He just has
to get through the new TV Champion and defeat her by pinfall or
submission.”
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 "The Queen's Guard" Deanna
Frost, 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. The
SCW Television Championship sits around her waist. Returning to the middle,
Deanna gives a spin on one foot, her arms outstretched, the 'leaves' circling
her below her feet.
Phillips: “His opponent, she is from Manhattan, New York, the SCW Television
Champion, she is 'The Queen's Guard', 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 takes off her TV Championship, handing it to the official, Steve
Hollinsworth. Hollinsworth takes it and holds it over his head. The crowd roars
as the SCW Television Championship logo comes across the screen and to the
bottom corner. Hollinsworth hands off the title.
Sharper: “Deanna Frost making
her first TV Title defense. Last week, she offered a title match to Adam
Allocco. He declined but they fought in non-title action.”
Lyman: “And Adam got past her,
but she has to reset. That could do a lot to mess with
her and Ace Sky is still relatively new here in SCW.”
Knots: “An unknown and that
can always surprise.”
The bell sounds. Ace and
Deanna circle the ring. They lunge and push back on one another. Ace drops down
and spins around her into a side headlock. He pulls back as Deanna gets him
back to the ropes and fires him off. Ace bounces off and steps up and shoulders
Deanna down. Ace turns and runs into the ropes. Deanna rolls toward him. Ace
hops over and bounces off the other side. Deanna rolls across and Ace
cartwheels over. Deanna gets up and Ace goes for a hip toss. Deanna blocks it.
Ace nails her in the stomach and bends her over. Ace then places his leg on the
back of her head and backflips back. He steps back and Deanna goes for a
clothesline. Ace ducks and both run into the ropes. Deanna jumps up and goes
high with a running leapfrog, as Ace somersaults under. Ace keeps going into
the ropes and bounces off as Deanna steps up with a clothesline. She goes for
the pin.

Ace kicks out and rolls over
to the ropes.
Sharper: “Deanna with a hard
clothesline. That got everyone’s attention.”
Lyman: “Just the impact.”
Sharper: “You run hard like Ace and you add the opportunity for greater impact both
ways.”
Ace starts to get up and
Deanna runs over and clubs him in the back and hits a forearm shot. Ace winces
and Deanna grabs him and wrenches the arm before jerking on it. She then pulls
him into a short-arm clothesline. Ace rolls over and starts to get up, moving
to the corner. Deanna follows up and Ace kicks her in the ribs and then leans
back, shoving her back with his boots. Deanna rolls back. Ace runs out and hits
a running European uppercut. Deanna rolls through. Ace then runs at her and
hits a running dropkick. Deanna falls to the corner. Ace gets up and moves over
and climbs up to the middle rope. He hits a hard right and then another and
another. He then backflips back and Deanna suddenly runs at him and hits a
clothesline. The crowd ohs. Ace rolls over and gets up and turns as Deanna
kicks him in the ribs and then hits a knee lift. Ace falls to the ropes.
Sharper: “Ace getting too
flashy there. Deanna just using those strikes to get the advantage back.”
Knots: “Back to the ropes too.
Good place for Ace if he can’t get going.”
Deanna turns and head over to
Ace. Ace hits a back elbow. He then jumps to the middle rope and dives back
with a moonsault. Deanna dodges. Ace lands on his
feet and spins around and Deanna runs at him and hits a dropkick. Ace rolls
through to the ropes. He starts to get up and Deanna snapmares
him over and runs across the ring. She bounces off and nails Ace with a diving
twisting back elbow. The crowd ohs. Deanna goes for the pin.

Ace kicks out. Deanna rolls
off as Ace rolls over. Deanna grabs him and pulls him back and then hits a neckbreaker. Deanna turns and moves to the ropes. She jumps
to the middle rope and dives back with a lionsault,
but Ace gets his knees up. Deanna falls back, holding her ribs. Ace then gets
up and looks at Deanna as she starts to stir and Ace
then runs at her and jumps up and into a flying headscissors,
taking Deanna through the ropes to the floor. Ace remains in the ring.
Sharper: “Deanna sent to the
floor.”
Knots: “There the flashy
offense helps. And he’s got ideas. He’s got hops!”
Ace runs across the ring as
Deanna gets up on the floor. (1) She turns to the ring. (2) Ace bounces off and
dives over the top rope with a somersault plancha to
the floor and onto Deanna. The crowd roars. (1)
Sharper: “Over the top! Flip
dive and right on target!”
Ace Sky rolls over and winces
and starts to get up. (2) He walks over to Deanna and pulls her up and turns
and rolls her into the ring. (3) He then pulls himself onto the apron. Deanna
rolls over and Ace grabs the top rope and slingshots into the ring with an
elbow drop. The crowd ohs. He dives onto Deanna for the pin.

Deanna gets her shoulder up.
Ace rolls off. He turns and looks at Deanna as she starts to get up and Ace
jumps up and hits a jump kick to the jaw. Deanna staggers back and Ace turns
and runs into the ropes. He bounces off and jumps up onto the shoulders of
Deanna, but Deanna falls back and Ace hits the top
rope throat first. He pops back and rolls over. He then staggers up as Deanna
gets up and grabs him only to hit the Spring Fling DDT. Ace lands on the top of
his head and flips through to a seated position only to drop to his side.
Sharper: “Deanna spikes him
with the Spring Fling.”
Lyman: “Right on the top of
the head! Just the impact!”
Sharper: “Deanna made sure to
get all of it and Ace Sky may be out!”
Deanna turns and hooks the
leg.

Ace gets his shoulder up.
Deanna rolls off. She looks around as Ace rolls over, holding his head and
neck. Deanna pulls him up and then hits a swinging neckbreaker.
Deanna turns and pulls herself up to her feet and exits to the apron. She then
climbs up to the top rope. The crowd roars. Deanna steadies herself and then
positions herself, but Ace gets up and runs over and jumps up and hits a frankensteiner, jumping from the mat and hooking Deanna’s
head and taking her over. The crowd ohs. Ace crawls over and hooks the leg.

Deanna gets her shoulder up.
Ace rolls off.
Sharper: “Amazing agility!
Amazing air. But only two!”
Knots: “And he’s got to figure
out something else now.”
Deanna stirs as Ace gets up
and grabs her and clubs her in the back and elbows her in the back of the head.
He hits a shoot kick to her chest and Deanna pops back and falls into the
ropes. Ace turns and runs across the ring. He bounces off and Deanna suddenly
steps out and hits a vicious sweep, causing Ace to flip forward and bounce off
the ropes before dropping to the mat. The crowd ohs. Ace slowly starts to get
up and Deanna walks over to him and grabs him by the head and hooks her own
head before grabbing his leg and spinning Ace Sky down with the Red Sunset. The
crowd ohs as Ace Sky folds up. Deanna dives onto him and presses down on his
legs for the pin.

The crowd roars as the bell
sounds.
Phillips: “Here is your
winner, and still SCW Television Champion, Deanna Frost!”
Sharper: “And Deanna Frost
holds on and defeats Ace Sky to succeed in her first defense!”
Knots: “Just planted him on
his head. That’s one way to do it.”
Lyman: “And a nice rebound for
Deanna from last week.”
Ace Sky rolls over as Deanna
gets up. She gets up and takes a moment before the official comes over with the
SCW Television Championship and hands it to her. Deanna holds it over her head
as the official raises her arm. The crowd looks on cheering her as Deanna takes
a moment to enjoy her successful defense before we cut away.
Backstage, Jaina
Lancaster stands with Beard in the interview area.
Jaina: “Beard, last week – you had
an opportunity to become Adrenaline Champion. You came very close,
but didn’t win. But Cid Turner said something to you before he left
and…we’re curious. What was that?’
Beard: “That’s between him and
me man. It was a bit of a moment. A moment after everything the last few weeks.
To ruining his wedding to making a terrible mistake and well…he told me it
would be okay and well….I wish I was holding the
Adrenaline Title now, but that’s not the way it went.”
Jaina: “Meanwhile, The One also
wasn’t victorious, but she has had eyes on you. We assumed and any thoughts
about that.”
Beard: “Look, I don’t know
what her deal is. I’m just trying to do my thing here. Trying to get by, make
my name, try to set up things to give my family some stability. And just get
better in that ring. I don’t know what her issue is, but she choked out Clammy.
And that’s just not cool. She cost herself a win so she’s not all there and-“
Beard turns and looks off
camera.
Beard: “What’s your problem,
man? Now you’re just eyin’ me.”
The camera pans back as The
One walks into view. The One looks at Beard, clearly
sizing him up. Jaina turns to her.
Jaina: “The One here…and…could we
get a comment or-“
The One grabs the microphone
and takes it away from Jaina. She looks at Beard.
The One: “You think I made a
mistake last week. No…I just showed you your future. As for why? Because you
were chosen.”
The One thrusts the microphone
back at Jaina. Jaina takes
it as The One walks off. Beard looks confused.
Beard: “What the hell does
that mean?! Why me?!”
Beard looks around as

Damron: “It was great. The kid

Anderson: “Tonight, we get it
again. And while I know this is a bit more of a partnership and yes, I will pay
you handsomely. Our agreement, again, in a sign of good faith, will start after
this week. Then we start to go for the Tag Team Championship.”
Damron: “That’s what you want.
Tsunami will help you get there. As for tonight, I make one request.”
Anderson: “Name it. I want to
make sure there’s some trust in this partnership.”
Damron: “When it comes to Glory,

Anderson: “Done. Pleasure

Anderson then pulls out an

Damron: “Same.”
Damron heads off as Jenni smiles.
BELIEVE IT!
The SCW Universe are on their feet as “Kings and Queens” by Ava Max as
plays throughout the arena, snow “falling” along the electronic floor and
screens as, out from the back walks the Snow Queen, Selena Frost, taking in the
crowd of the SCW Universe, the SCW World Championship around her waist.
Sharper: “Later tonight, we
will see Selena Frost facing Owen Lee. But she wants to share some thoughts
with our fans.”
Lyman: “Last week, Deanna
Frost and Adam Allocco had a hell of a contest, but one thing that we saw from
ringside was how Adam intentionally limited his offense.”
Knots: “Yeah. She learned he
has the basics down!”
Selena Frost walks down to the
ring. She high-fives a few young fans hands as she walks over to the steel
steps. She then walks up them and walks along the apron. She looks around
before stepping into the ring. She straightens her title as she turns and goes
over to the corner, asking for a microphone from Jason Phillips. Phillips hands
her one as Selena turns and walks over to the middle of the ring. The music
fades out as the crowd cheers a bit, although some boos come through. Selena
looks around.
Selena: “Well True Believers…I
know you’re expecting me out in this ring later tonight when I face Owen Lee in
our main event…”
The crowd cheers.
Selena: “But I figured I
needed to come out here and get a few things off my chest. Because last week we
saw the number one contender come out here and face my wife in singles action.
She brought her best and yet, Adam Allocco decided to come out here and slap
all of you in face by giving you a limited moveset
and all to prove some point to me.”
Selena chuckles.
Selena: “I’ve been out here
talking about integrity for months now. The integrity of this championship – it
represents the best. Period. Not who can take short-cuts to get there, but who
can compete at the top of their skills and win, consistently. It is a symbol of
excellence and one I try to live up to every day. First by giving the respect
to my opponent across from me by fighting them at my best…and then also giving
all of you, all of the fans of SCW, a match they paid
to see. You paid to see the best wrestlers in the world. And Adam Allocco
slapped you all in the face by coming out here with his four moves of doom.”
Selena shrugs.
Selena: “All to play some mind
games. So here we go again?”
Selena shakes her head.
Selena: “Well Adam, while
you’re doing that, and don’t get me wrong, for you to compete against Deanna
and still win despite your limited moveset…I know
exactly what you’re showing. You’re on top of your game…Well, tonight, I’m
going to give you a full show. I’m going to give these fans one and against one
wrestler who I know will be proving himself because that’s what he’s vowed to
do since returning. See Adam, I don’t need to hide anything. Because you can
watch all of the film, I will still come at you and
find some way to give you something new. I will still find some way to overcome
you. And frankly, all that last week proved is that I was right not to shake
your hand two weeks ago. Because you don’t deserve the respect in this ring,
regardless of what you’re capable of. Because you don’t have integrity. You’re
just like the rest-“
The rough guitar chords of
'Wired' by JJ Wilder strike the sound system. Adam Allocco steps out as Selena
turns to the entrance way. Allocco mockingly claps as he starts to walk down to
the ring in a suit.
Sharper: “Adam Allocco hearing
Selena and deciding to confront her again.”
Knots: “This should be fun.”
Allocco walks down to the ring
and then points his finger at Selena before walking around the ring. He walks
over to Jason Phillips who hands him a microphone. Allocco turns and takes it
walking to the steel steps. He walks up them and along the apron before
stepping into the ring.
Allocco: “Finish your thought,
Selena? Finish your self-righteous rant!”
Selena: “Nah, you know what I
think about you.”
Allocco: “What? That you’re pissed off because I worked smarter, not harder? In fact, I
probably worked harder. Unless you’re going to come out here and say that
Deanna shouldn’t have been in the ring with me? To take on our Television
Champion, in front of the world, and use only a fraction of my movelist to beat her. To know how to deploy it to its
greatest effectiveness.”
Selena just shakes her head,
smirking.
Selena: “Nice try, Adam. I
even said that there’s skill there but-“
Allocco: “But what, Selena? I
won’t preen to these fans out here and give them a show. We’re professional
wrestlers. We win. We lose. And sometimes people cheer for us. And yeah, yeah,
I know…the fans here pay for their tickets. We need to make them happy. Give
them a show. It’s a privilege that we can come into this ring and get paid to
put on a show in combat sport! Remember, Selena, I’ve promoted. I know the
schtick!”
Allocco looks right at Selena.
Allocco: “But while you bitch about integrity, where have I not had it? Two weeks
ago, I came out and called it as it is. I’m an asshole.
I will ALWAYS be an asshole. I’m also a promoter. SCW
can promote my rise from the dead. Great. But I’m a professional wrestler and
one that still has much left to do. All of this is what I said. And I’m coming
for that title. The World Championship. Your championship.”
The crowd roars.
Allocco: “And yeah, it
represents the best in the sport. But you know what else it represents?
History. I can hold the title after my son did. Winning it too at Rise to
Greatness. It’s also $100 000 a month. What? Don’t like that I make it that
straight-forward. It’s $100 000 a month. Money I can use to rebuild my life
after pissing half of it away through addiction. Just
like I’m sure you’re using the money to care for your kids.”
Selena: “Damn right I am. The
difference…the priorities. To me…it’s not just about winning or losing. It’s
about representing something for them.”
Selena points to the fans.
Selena: “And it doesn’t have
to be mutually exclusive.”
Allocco: “Who gives a damn Selena? What? Fine…I’ll make this simple.”
Allocco turns to the crowd.
Allocco: “Screw you all! You
like me. Great. Want to see me succeed? Great! Want me to die in a fire? Fine!
And here’s the best part, Selena…while you talk about giving the fans a show, I
damn sure am. They don’t like the fact that I’m who I
am, that just because I hit rock bottom, I won’t now act like I’ve seen God and
turn over a new leaf? They can now spend their hard earned
money to watch Rise to Greatness hoping you’ll kick my ass!”
The crowd roars.
Allocco: “And if you fail,
they’ll cheer the next challenger and the next and the next. While I roll in
the money. And Selena…best of all, I can play my role by still being the best
in this ring. Being the King of HardStyle…the
Renaissance Man. And being the World Champion. So it’s
not how you’d do it? But tell me where I’ve misled anyone about who the hell I
am, Selena?”
Selena looks at Allocco.
Allocco: “I’m a man who has
come back from hell and is on top of the world. And you’re in my way. You want
to say last week was mind games. No…it was a message. That I will walk out
World Champion. And I’m not giving you any chance to stop that if I can help
it!”
Selena: “Well Adam…I won’t
need the help. I hope you’re still going to join Owen and I at ringside
tonight. Because I’ll show you everything. Because while you’re going to be the
asshole…I’ll just step up and be the bitch that knows
they are that good in the ring. That’s confidence. And all you’ve told me…I
need to make sure you don’t walk out with this. Because you’re no champion I’d
want to see…getting their ass kicked or not.”
Selena pauses and looks down
for a moment before looking up at Adam.
Selena: “You know…I’m not the
biggest sport fan, but I’ve heard people complain about when championship teams
sit players late in the season. Well, that’s you. Not trying to lose, but well,
yeah, you win. Great. You were supposed to, right. But I’m the champions that
play every game to win. And at Rise to Greatness…well…BELIEVE IT!”
Selena flips the microphone
out of her hand. “Kings and Queens” plays as Selena turns and exits the ring.
Adam Allocco just smirks and watches her exit. Selena drops down and heads to
the back.
Sharper: “Two individuals who
have very different views on this sport.”
Knots: “And every week, it’s
just getting more and more personal as they collide at Rise to Greatness XIX!”
Sharper: “Selena Frost will
follow her talk by walking the walk later against Owen Lee. Adam Allocco plans
to watch from ringside. And we’ll see what happens there.”
Selena heads to the back as
Allocco turns and tosses his microphone back to Phillips as the scene cuts
away.

We cut to a shot of Steve Griffin hitting a top rope
decimator on CHBK from Rise to Greatness 2003, before cutting to a shot of Alistaire Allocco proudly holding the SCW World

Wallace, Trinity Street and Lucas Knight standing over Ravyn
Taylor and Kennedy Street at another Rise to Greatness event.
“This is your Rise to Greatness Rewind.”
The scene opens in the ring at Rise to Greatness 2020. We
see Selena Frost in the ring as she and Regan Street face Kandis and Tommy
Valentine. Selena
falls back and into the Frozen Hell corner. Regan grabs at the ropes and pulls
herself up and tags herself in. Tommy and Kandis use this to reset Kandis’ time
in the ring and both grab Regan and drag her through the ropes. Kandis and
Tommy then kick her in the ribs. Selena rolls to the apron. Tommy then places
Regan’s head between his legs and looks around. Kandis turns and moves to the
corner. She pulls herself up to the middle rope. Tommy then looks around and
lifts Regan up for a powerbomb and turns to her his back to Kandis. Kandis
smiles as she stands up and just then, Selena lunges along the apron and nails
Kandis in the side of the head with the Glass Shard! The crowd erupts in
cheers.
Sharper: “Glass Shard! Selena Frost finding the opening
and Kandis sent to the floor.”
Knots: “She’s out!”
Kandis falls over the top rope and down to the floor.
Regan then hits a frankensteiner. Tommy rolls
through. He gets up and Regan slowly gets up and turns and looks at Tommy as
Tommy turns and Regan blasts him with the WTH. Tommy staggers and turns and
toward the ropes where Selena is. Selena then sidesteps before hitting another
Glass Shard, managing to catch Tommy in the jaw.
Sharper: “Freeze! Or! Burn!”
Tommy turns and Regan grabs him and hits the CATastrophe for good measure! The crowd erupts in cheers
and Regan quickly turns and rolls him over and hooks the leg. Selena enters the
ring.

The crowd erupts in cheers as Regan rolls off and moves
to her knees. Selena turns and dives onto her, hugging her from behind.
Phillips: “Here is your winner, via pinfall, and NEW SCW
World Tag Team Champions, Regan Street and Selena Frost, Frozen Hell!”
Sharper: “Frozen Hell have done it! They’re the new World
Tag Team Champions and Regan Street joins Selena Frost and her husband David as
a Supreme Champion!”
Knots: “It looked like the Connection had it. They
divided and were trying to conquer, but Selena held on. She held on and held
on, so Regan could get in there.”
Regan Street and Selena Frost get up and Demitra hands them both the SCW World Tag Team Championship
and Selena her US Championship. He then raises their arms as the crowd cheers.
Regan Street walks around the ring, a tear in her eye, as she yells out “Yes!”
over and over as Selena walks over and hugs her again. Regan then looks around
and holds the title over her head. Kandis starts to get up on the floor as
Tommy rolls over and staggers over to her. Kandis looks in with anger as Tommy,
holds his jaw in pain. Regan and Selena continue to celebrate.
The Rise to Greatness XIX logo comes up on the screen.
The lights around the arena
begin to flicker as "Whoa Is Me" by Down With
Webster starts to play over the arena.
Whoa is me
I'm so whoa
See me decked out from my head to my toe
Whoa is me
I'm so whoa
Everywhere I go I'm a one man show
And the song continues...
The crowd cheers as "All Star" Gavin Taylor steps out from behind the
curtain onto the top of the ramp. As he stands in place, standing in a suit, he
looks out at the crowd. He’s not playing to them as usual. Instead, he
stoically scans the crowd before starting to head to the ring.
Say whoa (whoa)
The more I feel it whoa (whoa)
The more I need it whoa (whoa)
You say whoa
Whoa is me
I'm so whoa
He reaches the ring and walks up the steel steps and stands on the apron. He
takes a moment, walking along it before wiping his feet, and then entering the
ring. He looks around as he walks over to the corner, motioning to Jason
Phillips.
Sharper: “Gavin Taylor joining
us here. We’re not sure why.”
Knots: “Not a good couple of
months for him.”
Lyman: “Lost his tag partner,
lost the tag championship, and he’s on a losing streak. And many thought that
the All-Star was turning a corner after Trios. He and Nicole were on the tip of
everyone’s tongues and things shift. Ravyn Taylor to
blame in part there.”
Phillips hands Gavin a
microphone and Gavin Taylor walks back to the middle of the ring. He looks
around as the music fades out. A “Gavin!” chant begins as Gavin Taylor looks
around. He nods for a few moments, enjoying the reaction.
Gavin: “Thanks for that, but I
don’t think I deserve it.”
Gavin looks around.
Gavin: “I just wanted to come
out here and say a piece before allowing this show to continue. I understand
next is the World Tag Team Championship match and well, there’s some poetic
justice there with that being next when that’s the last title I held and
frankly was one reason I’m standing here.”
Gavin pauses.
Gavin: “I should holding gold.”
Gavin pauses.
Gavin: “Now, now, don’t chalk
that up to me being arrogant. I’m not like some people running around here
demanding title shots or what not. I’m not going to turn to the dark side and
attack a friend to get there, showing the addiction of it. Nothing of the sort.
That’s just a statement I believe. I think I’m pretty good. I mean I’m the
All-Star, the Franchise Player, the Real-World Jedi, Wrestling’s Kwisatz Haderach, the Obscenely
Naturally Talented….the History-Maker….Canada’s…and
Australia’s…favourite wrestler!”
The crowd roars.
Gavin: “At least that’s what I
claimed. Look, losing streaks happen. I get it. We’re human, blah, blah, blah.
But I started this year actually making history….teaming
with someone who is now a friend in Nicole Kinneck,
and having one of the weirdest title runs in wrestling history! And that’s all
gone. I could keep helping Nicole, but she wants to fight her own battle. I
could ask for one more match against Ravyn Taylor…but
I’m not ready for that. She’s in my head. And I stand here…two weeks removed
from helping Syren against Katie Steward. Katie
Steward... and Syren. Actual legends!”
Gavin pauses again as he looks
up.
Gavin: “I’ll tell you exactly
what I was doing. I was helping Syren. Heck…my
Canadian was showing. Lyman out there said maybe I’m just a good guy. And
that’s not something that many people said about me. Me! Gavin Taylor!”
Gavin stops again.
Gavin: “Then I lost to Katie
Steward in her first match back. And after Syren came
to talk to me and yeah…I planned to call out Syren.
What a better way to try and get back to where I think I should be is to just
face one of the best. No…not to use as a stepping stone.
Not try to take them out. Just compete. And face the best…and try to win!”
Gavin leans on the top rope.
Gavin: “That won’t be
happening. I shouldn’t be in the ring with a Hall of Famer. Not right now. I
was the All-Star, the Franchise Player, the Real-World Jedi, Wrestling’s Kwisatz Haderach…But right now,
I’m just Gavin Taylor.”
Gavin stops.
Gavin: “And maybe Gavin Taylor
won’t be competing at Rise to Greatness. And maybe that’s deserved. Maybe
that’s a bit of karma for what I’ve done in the past. Maybe I’ve just coasted.
Maybe, maybe, maybe….Maybe-“
We then see Syren walking down from the back, microphone in her hand.
The crowd roars as Syren walks down to the ring.
Syren: “Maybe you need to stop.”
Gavin turns as the crowd roars
as Syren walks over to the steel steps and then walks
up onto the apron. She walks along it and then steps into the ring.
Gavin: “Syren,
look-“
Syren: “No. I called you out last
week. I wondered if this was just some way to get to Ravyn
through me. And maybe I was wrong. But frankly, too many people have been
coming at me seeing me as nothing more than their ticket to the top. You said
something…last week and again now.”
Syren looks at Gavin.
Syren: “You
said you just wanted to face me. You wanted to face the best and test yourself, because that’s what we do.”
Gavin nods.
Syren: “Well Gavin…while you’re
having your pity party…something I know far too much about because every loss
feels like the end of the world. It’s what great talent does….but
I’m frankly sick of people like Katie, like Ace, like Matt Hodges, like Asher
Hayes…who saw me as someone to be taken out or someone to get them to a title
shot. We all want title shots. I know damn well I want
one. I was this close to having it at Rise to Greatness. See, Gavin…maybe we
have a lot more in common. We both didn’t get exactly what we want.”
Syren shrugs.
Syren: “But I’ll happily take a
match where I can just wrestle and prove how damn good
I am in this ring. And it sounds like closer to what you wanted. So Gavin…I’ll put it this way…you were the All-Star, the
Franchise Player, Canada’s Favourite Wrestler…Be them again. Because Gavin…I’ll
face you at Rise to Greatness. While everyone is looking to send messages, flay
Penguins, take titles, speak on integrity…I feel like wrestling.”
Syren looks at Gavin.
Syren: “And you can wrestle. And I
want you to prove it. To them, to me…and to yourself. Because here’s what I’m
offering Gavin. Find the All-Star. Because I want him for 30 minutes, Ironperson Match!”
The crowd roars. Syren looks at Gavin and extends her hand. Gavin looks at Syren and even says “You sure?” Syren
nods. Gavin then looks at Syren’s hand.
Sharper: “Syren
extending her hand to Gavin Taylor.”
Knots: “We’ve not seen a lot
of respect so far in the run up to Rise to Greatness.”
Lyman: “Gavin’s feeling down,
but Gavin/Syren for thirty minutes could be a
classic!”
Gavin then shakes Syren’s hand. The crowd roars. Syren
leans in and says something to Gavin as Gavin says something back. She then
steps back, letting go as “Groupie” plays throughout the arena. Syren turns and steps through the ropes. She places the
microphone on the apron and drops down to the floor. She then starts to head to
the back as Gavin nods.
Knots: “Well Gavin, you better
find the All-Star. He’s going to be needed at Rise to Greatness!”
Sharper: “Syren’s
going to bring it all. She wants to be World Champion again. But I think she’s
realized something. She’s going to have to take on any and
all and Gavin Taylor is going through similar things she has. Times
where it feels she’s rudderless. And we’re now going to see two very talented
people square off in a match for endurance!”
Gavin looks up at Syren as Syren heads to the back.
She turns around and points at him before turning back and heading to the back.
“The Old Me” plays as the Breakdown logo comes up on the screen. We then see a
still of the Happy Farmstead Friends vs. The Holly Adams Brand, Trademarked for
the World Tag Team Championship.
Sharper: “We go from a match
about wrestling to a match that was conned. The World Tag Team Titles on the
line. The Happy Farmstead Friends defend against Holly Adams and GiGi Aries, next!”

*“For 5 EASY Payments of 29.99!”*
“Boss Bitch” by Doja Cat comes in full force around the arena as The Housewives
of Beverly Hills camera crew back out onto the stage while Holly Adams steps up
onto the stage, spinning into place at the top of the ramp flanked by a smiling
Giovanni “GiGi” Aries dressed in white tunic and
white pants. Datura slowly walks out and looks around. The crowd boos some
more. Holly Adams poses with her hand on her hip and her other hand high in the
air as she pageant waves to the booing crowd. She
starts down the ramp toward the ring with GiGi in
tow, who reaches into his pants pocket to give out business cards to random
fans along the rampway while Datura walks alongside him.
Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall
and has a thirty minute time limit and is for the SCW
World Tag Team Championship! First, the challengers, accompanied by Datura, it
is the team of Holly Adams and GiGi Aries, they are
the Holly Adams Brand, trademarked!”
Holly starts to sing along with her theme song, looking directly into the camera
closest to her. GiGi dances along in the background
as she flashes a million-dollar smile before putting her hand on the camera and
pushing it away and she gets into the ring. GiGi
hands a small stack of business cards to Cookie, who smiles and nods before
starting to hand them out to fans at ringside while GiGi
jumps up on the opposite side of the ring apron from Holly. He extends his arms
outward as he throw more business cards out among the
crowd and yells:
“FOLLOW ME TO A WONDERLAND OF
SALVATION!!!!”
He then looks at the camera and says, “For Only 5 Payments of 29.99,” before he
cackles out then flips back into the ring. Datura walks around the ring. Meanwhile,
Holly grabs the top rope, bends down, and then snaps back quickly, flipping her
blonde hair over her head, smiling brightly for the cameras. GiGi sits on the top turnbuckle while he continues to toss
out business cards. Holly joins them in the corner and looks out to the crowd,
once again pageant waving as the music begins to die down.
Sharper: “Holly Adams and GiGi Aries manipulated the Tag Team Champions to get this
match. And look who is also with them!”
Knots: “Add Datura. No Samuel
Davis. He may no longer be of this earth, but that’s fine. Holly Adams and GiGi Aries care about one thing…winning the titles.”
The crowd roars as jaunty and
generic royalty free music begins to play throughout the arena. On the big
screen, a unicorn gallops across a beautiful, flowery field, leaving petals
exploding into the air underneath its hooves. It gets closer to the camera as
it prepares to fly off, but not before evacuating its bowels, which take the
form of letters in a bubble font, reading:
Lexy Chapel Presents
HAPPY FARMSTEAD FRIENDS
From behind the curtain,
Dancing Bear awkwardly moonwalks out onto the stage. Following close behind is
Hairless Penguin, clad in his mask and a furry black and white coat that runs
all the way to his feet, plus a moderately priced steel string guitar held over
his shoulder. The two make their way to the center of the stage before Lexy
Chapel makes her way out behind them, squeezing in between them to take her
place on center stage. She physically and literally presents them with her arms
at her sides. Hairless Penguin poses stoically while Dancing Bear flosses. After
a moment of fantastical posing, they begin to make their way down the
ramp. They hold their World Tag Team Championship belts.
Phillips: “Their opponents,
accompanied by Lexy Chapel, from the Happy Farmstead, they are the SCW World
Tag Team Champions, the team of the Dancing Bear and the Hairless Penguin, the
Happy Farmstead Friends!”
Lexy barks at Dancing Bear to
keep dancing as he jigs down the ramp with Hairless Penguin playing guitar
along to the royalty free music. Hairless Penguin makes his way up the steps
and into the ring, holding his guitar into the air. Behind him, Dancing Bear
struggles to get into the ring because he's in an oversized suit, but he
eventually gets there. Lexy takes her place on the outside of the ring,
searching for the nearest child to remind them to tell their parents to buy
some Happy Farmstead Friends merchandise. Hairless Penguin hands his furry coat
and guitar off to the timekeeper before taking his place in the corner. Dancing
Bear comes along and puts his arm around Hairless Penguin as their royalty free
music begins to fade. Penguin takes their titles and hands them to the
official, Aaron Demitra. Lexy just scowls at Holly as
Holly holds her hand up and turns and talks to GiGi.
The SCW World Tag Team Championship logo comes across the screen.
Sharper: “And let’s not forget
that we started today with GiGi threatening Lexy over
the contents of her phone. Presumably the Brand did have it when they took it
from her a few weeks ago.”
Lyman: “Just adds another
layer to this tag match. And Sarah Wolf, Kimberly Williams, they’re both here.”
Sharper: “You can already see
Hairless Penguin wanting to start this match quickly.”
Penguin steps up and tells Demitra to hurry as GiGi walks
over to him and tries to tell him to calm down. Penguin looks around, eyes
darting, as Bear gets to the apron. Demitra steps
back and calls for the bell. Aries keeps trying to talk to Penguin who suddenly
nails GiGi with a hard right and then spins around
him into a sloppy school boy.
1!
Aries kicks out. Penguin dives
onto him and pushes him over and into a lateral press.
1!
Aries kicks out again. Both
get up and Penguin nails him in the ribs before then having an idea. He then
drops down and goes for a blatant low blow, but Aries reaches down, blocking
it. Penguin looks up at him. Aries just looks at him as Demitra
warns Penguin. Aries starts to preach as Penguin pleads.
Sharper: “Penguin was going
for the quick DQ!”
Knots: “Yeah. Right now, he’s
not got anyone to protect him if someone wants to flay him. I mean, he’s got
Bear, but let’s face it…Bear’s more than likely to run too!”
Sharper: “Aries blocking it
and Penguin is pleading with him!”
Aries then steps over and
wrenches the arm. Penguin yells out and Aries headbutts him in the shoulder
before nailing him with a hard right. Penguin staggers back and Aries hits a
Mongolian chop, knocking him down. Penguin rolls over and crawls to the ropes.
He starts to get up and Aries hits a big chop. The crowd ohs from the impact
before Aries kicks him in the ribs. He then spins him around and into the Brand
corner.
Sharper: “Aries just slowly
working over Penguin. Clearly they’re happy to use the
fear in their favour.”
Knots: “Unless they take the
easy way out to disqualify themselves!”
Holly tags in and Aries holds
Penguin back. He tries to get free, struggling as Holly enters and kicks him in
the ribs. She then grabs him and Aries does too and
they hit a double snapmare. Penguin ends up on his
back and Holly kicks him hard in the back. The crowd ohs. Holly goes for the
pin.
1!
2!
Penguin kicks out. He rolls
over and Holly gets up and looks at him.
Holly: “Hey dumbass!
We pin you and this is over. You can run and hide!”
Penguin looks up at her as he
looks at Bear. Lexy immediately yells back.
Chapel: “Enough of your mindgames she-devil!”
Holly: “Oh? Want us to blab?”
Chapel’s eyes widen as Datura
looks on as Holly grabs Penguin, but Penguin nails her in the ribs and shoves
her down. He rolls over to the corner and tags in Bear. Bear enters as Penguin
gets up. Holly starts to get up and Bear runs at her. Holly ducks out of the
way, backing away before turning to Penguin who jumps up with a clothesline. He
rolls out of the ring. He nearly runs into Datura, before ducking away and apologizing
and going back to his corner. Holly stirs as Bear turns and runs at her and
jumps up and hits a splash. The crowd ohs. Bear stays on her for the pin.
1!
2!
Holly kicks out and rolls
over, coughing and holding her nose. She turns back. Bear gets up and flosses
briefly as Penguin climbs back onto the apron. He then closes his eyes as Bear
then clubs Holly in the chest with a shot. She hits the mat and rolls over and
gets up, moving to the ropes. Bear grabs her.
Sharper: “Bear just using his
offense. His unique offense.”
Lyman: “We always talk about
how GiGi’s offense is unorthodox. The Farmstead
Friends are completely unorthodox.”
He whips her across the ring.
Holly bounces off and Bear goes for a clothesline, but Holly ducks under and
bounces off the other side and Bear turns only for Holly to hit a dropkick.
Bear falls back. He rolls over as Penguin continues to look around the arena,
clearly awaiting an attack. Holly turns and grabs Bear and stands over him and
nails him with hard punches to the face. He covers up only for Holly to step
off and stomp him over and over and over again in the
chest. She steps back and walks around the ring. Bear rolls over and onto his
hands and knees. Holly runs over and jumps up and lands on his back with a
senton backsplash. She rolls him over and goes for the pin.
1!
2!
Bear kicks out. Holly rolls
off. As she does, we see Cid Turner walking out from the back. He looks down at
the ring and heads down. Holly gets up and walks forward to the ropes.
Sharper: “Cid Turner now
coming out here.”
Knots: “Thought he wanted
nothing to do with this. Walked away from Cookie last week and Datura too!”
Lyman: “He’s out here now. I’d
say second thoughts but even Holly is a bit confused.”
Holly walks to the ropes. Cid
ignores her as Holly snaps at him. GiGi watches him
as he walks around. Holly turns around as Bear and Penguin presumably have
tagged one another and Bear lifts Holly up and Penguin jumps up and hits a
running clothesline for a Hart Attack. Penguin dives for the pin.
1!
2!
Holly gets her shoulder up as
Bear exits the ring. Cid meanwhile heads to Datura. Datura looks at him as Cid
starts to talk to her a bit. GiGi watches before
stepping down to talk to him. Holly rolls over as Penguin grabs Holly and then
looks over at Cid.
Knots: “Hey! Wasn’t Penguin
originally Cid?”
Lyman: “We’ve long debunked
that potential claim.”
Knots: “Well they’re in the
same place. Just for our slower viewers!”
Sharper: “Stop it! Penguin
meanwhile working over Holly as GiGi Aries and Cid
Turner now talking. Datura caught in the middle!”
Penguin sends Holly into the
corner and shoulders her repeatedly. The camera cuts to GiGi,
Cid and Datura.
Cid: “I’m not going to let you
take advantage of her.”
Datura: “I just need help.
Whoever can offer it. You walked off Cid. I-“
GiGi: “She wanted Nirvana. We are
merely offering what you yourself said you couldn’t.”
Cid turns to Datura.
Cid: “I can’t let you stay
with him. With her. You need someone to help you reach your potential and-“
Datura: “And you now will?
What about last week?”
Cid doesn’t respond before we
cut back to the ring. Holly manages to move out of the way from a Penguin
running splash and he staggers out only for Holly to kick him in the ribs and
hits a DDT. Holly turns and looks over at GiGi. Holly
crawls over.
Holly: “GiGi!”
Cid turns to Datura. GiGi turns and climbs up as Holly tags him in. Holly rolls
to the apron as Cid continues to try and convince Datura to go with him. GiGi enters as Penguin starts to get up and Aries runs and
hits a swinging neckbreaker. He rolls over and into a
pin.
1!
2!
Bear enters and pulls him off.
Aries rolls over and Bear looks at him. Aries smiles as Bear then swings. Aries
ducks and turns and headbutts him. Bear staggers. Aries runs into the ropes and
bounces off. Bear goes for a clothesline, but Aries ducks and spins around.
Bear turns and Aries hits a dropkick. Bear falls over. Holly climbs down to the
floor and stands between Cid and Datura.
Holly: “Cid! You’re in no
position to help anyone. Starbucks came here to be with us! We can help. You
know this is a business! Stop pretending you’re against that! Why we cut
Asher!”
Cid turns away as Datura looks
at Holly. Cid then looks up.
Cid: “Her name is Datura…or
Liz…not Starbucks.”
Holly: “Whatever! We can help
her and-“
Datura shoves Holly down as
she turns to Cid. The crowd roars as Aries grabs Penguin in the ring, catching
Penguin’s arms and trapping them before headbutting him repeatedly. Demitra focuses on that as Datura steps over Holly and
turns to Cid. Cid then starts to walk off with Datura. The crowd roars. They
head around the ring. GiGi then shoves Penguin down
before stepping over to the ropes. Cid and Datura reach the ringside area. GiGi leans on the ropes.
Aries: “Are you sure he will
help? There are many paths…I offer a different one….”
Datura stops and turns as Cid
looks at him and then Datura.
Cid: “Liz…you-“
Aries steps to the apron. Just
then, Penguin runs up behind and nails him hard. Aries falls forward and flips
forward, into Cid, as Datura ducks.(1) The crowd ohs.
Penguin falls back and rolls over. He looks around as Bear starts to get up in
the corner. Penguin then gets up and crawls to the corner.(2)
Datura turns and checks on Cid and then on GiGi as
Holly walks over and looks at Datura.(3)
Holly: “What happened?”
Penguin however climbs up to
the top rope. The crowd roars as Penguin stands on the very top and looks down
and then just dives off, arms wide, and lands on all four! The crowd erupts in cheers.(4)
Sharper: “Penguin! From the
top!”
Lyman: “He’s wrestling the
match of his life! He’s trying to do anything to win it faster! And right now,
he saw a way to take everyone out!”
Knots: “Helps that Cid is
distracting them. Worry about your personal problems after Cidnay!”
Penguin looks around as he
stirs and turns and starts to grab not GiGi, the
legal competitor, but Holly Adams.(5) Penguin takes her
and drags her up and moves him to the ring. He then turns and looks at Cid
before turning back and rolling into the ring. (6) He then gets up and grabs
Holly and hits a scoop slam. He dives onto her for the pin. The official
doesn’t count. Penguin looks up, confused as Bear has his arm out. Penguin gets
up as the crowd roars. We then see Sarah Wolf now standing in the crowd. Bear
sees her and points. The crowd roars as Penguin looks up and gulps. Wolf juts
stoically remains in the ground, arms crossed. GiGi
starts to get up on the floor. Cid turns and helps Datura up. GiGi steps between him and Datura and tells him to leave.
Cid looks at Datura as Datura looks at him and then GiGi.
Sharper: “Cid trying to help
Datura. GiGi Aries, the countout
stopped.”
Knots: “Penguin had the wrong
person in there!”
Sharper: “And look who is
here! It’s Sarah Wolf. Just looking in the crowd!”
Lyman: “Penguin’s getting
jumpy.”
Penguin turns and then goes to
run, but trips over Holly. Penguin falls over as the crowd ohs. Bear drops down
to the floor and runs over and goes to help Penguin as we see Wolf now climb
over the barricade.
Sharper: “I think Wolf was
waiting for this match to end, but with Penguin and Bear aware!”
Lyman: “She’s moving, Adam!”
Bear joins Lexy, even nearly
knocking her out of the way as he reaches out, trying to help pull Penguin out.
Holly holds onto Penguin though as Cid sees this. Wolf walks over to the ring
and pulls herself onto the apron. She then enters the ring and starts to walk
forward. Cid sees this and rolls into the ring. He then sees Holly holding onto
Penguin and Bear as the official tells Wolf to leave. Wolf nails him with a
hard right. Demitra goes down. Wolf then runs over
and kicks at Penguin, nailing him over and over. Cid sees this and runs over
and shoves Wolf back before turning to Holly and prying her arms off from
Penguin. Penguin is pulled out by Bear, landing on him in a heap. Wolf turns
and looks at Cid before pulling herself to the floor.
Sharper: “Wolf got some shots
in. She just blasted Demitra!”
Knots: “Cid! What are you
doing?!”
Sharper: “Cid saving Hairless
Penguin!”
Knots: “It’s a bit on the nose
to try to save yourself, Cid!”
Penguin scrambles up and Lexy
looks at Bear. Penguin grabs her and turns her as Bear gets up. The three bolt as they head around the ring.
Sharper: “The Farmstead
Friends are getting out of dodge!”
Knots: “They’ve left the
titles!”
Wolf starts to chase after
them. The three run up the ramp and to the back as the crowd roars. Cid looks
at Holly as Holly looks at him.
Holly: “What the hell is your
problem? We could’ve used this!”
Holly pushes back on Cid and
rolls over. Cid turns to them.
Cid: “I’m not going to let
them get destroyed by her-“
Holly starts to demand a
microphone. GiGi and Datura talk on the floor as Wolf
disappears to the back now at this point. The crowd boos a bit as Demitra gets up, calling for the bell. The bell sounds.
Phillips: “Fans, senior
official Aaron Demitra has thrown this match out.
Therefore, this match is a draw!”
The crowd boos as Holly crawls
over, pushing Cid out of the way and demanding the microphone. Phillips walks
over and hands her one. Holly takes it and turns back.
Holly: “Cid! We needed this! A
clear win to show that the Brand can overcome everything. Especially everything
we’ve been through the last few months, but your selfishness showed.”
Cid gets up and looks at
Holly.
Holly: “Next week, we’re going
to reevaluate your progress in the Brand. And maybe
we’ll need to reevaluate the status of the Positive
State too!”
The crowd ohs as Cid looks at
Holly. Holly throws the microphone down and rolls to the floor, clearly upset.
Cid looks around as he turns to GiGi Aries who is now
leading Datura to the back. Cid watches her and steps forward as the scene
fades out.
COMMERCIALS
Breakdown returns as Penguin,
Bear and Chapel are running down the hallway. Chapel then stops.
Chapel: “The titles!”
Chapel turns to go back, but sees Sarah Wolf heading down the hallway. Chapel
turns back and runs after Penguin and Bear as they quickly run into their
locker room. They go in and slam the door. Wolf, no longer running, just stalks
up to the door and looks at it. She turns and looks around before walking off.
Sharper: “Wolf tracking the
Tag Team Champions to their locker room.”
Knots: “Well that was easy.
She’s stopped by a door! I mean she doesn’t use the entrance. Doors may be too
much for her-“
Sharper: “MY GOD!”
We then see Wolf back,
swinging a fire axe at the door. The crowd ohs. She swings again and this time,
gets it stuck in the door. She starts to pry it out as officials and security
arrive on the scene.
Knots: “She nuts?!”
Lyman: “This is over the top!
She’s taking an axe to their locker room door!”
Wolf tries to keep pulling the
axe out and does. The guards and officials back up as she swings
again, this time, cracking a hole in the door. We hear yells inside as the
officials then again move in and this time, restrain her. Wolf is pulled back.
Shaun Cruze appears on the scene as Wolf keeps
focusing on the room.
Wolf: “I’m not done!”
Wolf tries to struggle but is
overpowered by the group of security as they pull her back.
Cruze: “Get her out of here!”
Cruze points as Wolf is dragged off
by security.
Kimberly Williams vs. Polly
Playtime
A coin can be heard dropping
into a coin slot and then the words “START GAME” show up on SCW’s
Jumbotron. A bunch of girls can be heard giggling before “C’est La Vie” by B*Witched begins to play.
The music plays for quite some time and it is not
until it comes to the first chorus that Polly emerges from the backstage area
wearing a frilly pink skirt and a very cute and fashionable strapless crop top
that has black paw prints on it. She is carrying a personally made microphone,
clearly wanting to make the world wait to see her. Colleen and Aisling walk out
from behind wearing matching pantsuits. Polly heads to the ring as the crowd
boos her. She reaches the ringside area. She walks up the steel steps and into
the ring. Aisling and Collen walk around the ring. Polly hands over her
personalized microphone to Jason Phillips and tells him to announce her using
ONLY that microphone. He looks at her and just shrugs before taking it.
Phillips: “Here she is ladies and gentlemen. From Panguitch,
Utah, she is the girl that just LOVES to play… Polly Playtiiiiime!”
Polly immediately snatches her microphone back away from him and nods, telling
him “Good job,” before she heads to her assigned corner. It’s here that she
begins to warm up for the upcoming matchup. Colleen and Aisling stand in her
corner. Polly then turns around and informs them of what she wants them to do.
Sharper: “Polly Playtime has
been coming out with a new more aggressive approach with her Playgirls. Last
week even defeating Nicole Kinneck.”
Lyman: “She’s got skill. Just
the attitude now…she’s getting purchase. She’s going to think that’s it. But
she was making headway before. Sometimes you just need that break or to put it
all together.”
The opening chords of Paranoid
begin to play. Kimberly Williams steps out onto the stage to a loud, mostly
positive, reaction from the fans. A sinister smirk is on her face as she
ponders what she is about to do tonight. The SCW Underground Championship
is around her waist.
Phillips: “Her opponent, from
Boston, Massachusetts, the SCW Underground Champion, Kimberly Williams!”
She winks at the fans before
pointing towards the ring and making a beeline towards it. She slides
into the ring underneath the bottom rope. Kimberly then poses in the center of
the ring to another loud reaction from the fans. The music slowly dies
down and Kimberly goes to a corner to await the start of the match. She places
her title in her corner.
Sharper: “Kim Williams already
busy tonight. Now she’s going to have some fun.”
Knots: “Does she want to play
a game?”
Sharper: “Always it seems.”
Knots: “Yeah. I don’t know
what to expect here!”
The bell sounds as Kim looks
at Polly. Polly watches her and Kim walks around before the two step up and
lock up in the middle of the ring. Kim turns into an arm wrench. Kim jerks on
it as Polly winces. Kim pulls up on the arm and pushes her into the ropes. She
fires her off. Polly bounces off and Kim scoops her up, but Polly spins through
and hits an arm drag. Kim rolls through to her feet. She turns back as Polly
grabs her by the head and locks in a headlock. Kim reaches around and Polly
then turns and runs forward and uses Kim’s head as a battering ram into the top
turnbuckle. Kim falls to a knee. Polly lets go, turns
and shoves her back. Kim rolls through and Polly hits a dropkick.
Sharper: “We’ve talked a lot
of unorthodox offense tonight. There’s some more.”
Lyman: “Kim a bit discombobulated
from that.”
Polly follows up as Kim gets
up and nails her with a forearm shot. Kim falls to the ropes. Polly kicks her
in the ribs and then pulls her out and snapmares her
down. Polly runs into the ropes, bouncing off and hits a running elbow drop.
She goes for the pin.

up and Polly rakes Kim’s eyes. Kim falls to the ropes. Polly then whips her
across. Kim bounces off and Polly hits a back elbow. Kim hits the mat. Polly
steps on Kim’s face and rakes it with her boot. Kim turns and rolls over. She
starts to get up and Polly grabs her and hooks her up for a vertical suplex. Kim blocks it though and nails her in the ribs once
and then again before lifting her up and throwing her forward with a release
front suplex.
Sharper: “Kim fighting back.
Just stopping Polly and throwing her forward.”
Lyman: “And now she could just
be annoyed. We never know if Kim is actually angry or
more motivated.”
Knots: “How much blood has
been spilled?”
Polly rolls over and Kim
follows up and stomps her in the face and then again. Polly rolls to the ropes.
Kim places her foot on Polly’s face and starts to press down.

Kim steps off as Polly holds
her face. Kim walks around the ring. Polly grabs at the ropes and Kim turns and
runs at her and nails her with a running boot to the face. Polly falls through
the ropes to the apron. The crowd ohs. Kim smiles as she then watches Polly as
she starts to get up and Kim runs along the ropes and nails Polly with a spear.
Polly hits the apron. Kim looks at her and shrugs and runs across the ring. She
bounces off and hits a baseball slide. Polly falls to the mats.
Sharper: “Kim with her unique
offense. Spear through the ropes. That sets up the baseball slide.”
Lyman:” And quickly Polly is
out of the ring and hurting all over.”
Kim turns and rolls to the
floor. (1) She walks over to Polly who grabs at Kim, but Kim forearms her. She
then turns and runs her over and into the steel steps. (2) The crowd cheers.
Kim then looks around as we see Colleen and Aisling walking over to the
Underground Championship belt Kim left under her corner.(3)
Aisling grabs it and looks at it as Kim notices this. She then turns and walks
over to timekeeper and grabs the ring bell and hammer.(4)
She then walks over to Colleen and Aisling and before Colleen can warn her, Kim
holds the ring bell next to Aisling’s head and rings it with the hammer.(5) The
crowd roars. Kim then throws the bell down. Kim then points as Colleen and
Aisling walk off, Aisling holding her ears in pain.(6)
Kim then turns around as Polly, now back in the ring, runs at the ropes and
dives through, taking Kim down with a pescado! Kim
flies back and into the announce table. The crowd ohs. (1)
Sharper: “Polly Playtime who
had gotten back into the ring. Kim distracted by the Playgirls admiring the
title and she just drilled Kim!”
Knots: “Knocked out table back
a bit. I almost had to suck in my gut to avoid terrible injury!”
Kim holds her lower back as
Polly gets up. (2) She then steps up to Kim and smacks her in the jaw a couple
of times. The crowd boos. (3) She then grabs Kim and pulls her up and rolls her
into the ring. Polly climbs up onto the apron. Kim slowly gets up in the ring
and turns as Polly springboards to the top rope and jumps forward into a
twisting hurricanrana into a pin.

her back, creating space, and hitting the superkick!”
Knots: “Polly didn’t even have
a chance to react.”
Lyman: “But now both down. And
Polly’s still moving. Kim’s still sore from going into our table!”
Polly rolls over, holding her
jaw and starts to get up. Kim then gets up and grabs her. Polly hits a back
elbow for good measure and gets a break of her own. She runs into the ropes,
bouncing off, but Kim then runs after her. Polly stops and turns and Kim nails
her with the Shadowblade. The crowd roars. Kim goes

Colleen runs over and just jumps up and hits a hip drop to the chest of Kim.
Kim rolls over in a bit of pain. The bell sounds again as Aisling checks on
Polly.
Sharper: “Kim Williams showing
that decisiveness but now Colleen and Aisling. These two Playgirls.”
Knots: “She asked on social
media why she should be afraid. Here’s why. They may just kick her ass!”
Aisling starts to help Polly
who is in pain and rolls over. Polly points at Kim as Colleen gets up and
stomps away on Kim. The crowd boos loudly. Kim covers up as Colleen gets a few
good shots in. The bell sounds again. Aisling turns and exits to the apron. She
climbs up to the top rope as Colleen pulls Kim up and places her head between
her legs. She then hoists Kim up and plants her with a snap powerbomb. The
crowd ohs. Aisling gets to the top and dives off with a frog splash. She hits
and rolls through. The crowd boos loudly. Colleen then turns and looks at Kim
as Polly gets up and smirks as Aisling turns and helps Polly up. Colleen turns
to Polly as the boos continue.
Sharper: “Polly Playtime may
not be the victor in the books, but she’s standing tall with these two women
standing with her.”
Lyman: “And they just left Kim
laying with a statement of their own. They played their games during the match,
but for keeps after.”
The boos continue as Polly
walks over to the ropes. Aisling and Colleen follow her and exit the ring,
helping her to the floor. Kim rolls over, holding her ribs in pain as the scene
cuts away.
Backstage, Cid Turner is seen
walking through the backstage area and approaching the door of the Lexy Corp
locker room. Cid Turner has the SCW World Tag Team Championship belts in his
hands. He walks over to the door and sees the hole. He knocks on it and then
looks in.
Cid: “Uh…Anyone here?”
Autumn: “What do you want?”
Autumn walks up from across
the way. Cid jumps a bit.
Cid: “You’re not in there-“
Autumn: “No. Turns out when a
sociopath tries to kill your furry friends with an axe, they move you.”
Cid: “Oh, that’s fair.”
Cid extends the Tag Titles.
Autumn looks at them and takes them.
Cid: “They’re theirs. Saw they
were still at ringside after Holly and GiGi stormed
off…with Datura.”
Cid seems a bit disappointed
with that last point.
Autumn: “Thanks…I guess….”
Cid: “Something else.”
Autumn: “What? Going to dance
over the fact you beat me.”
Cid: “No. Just…I asked Cruze about it. Giving you a rematch for the Addy title.
Next week. You can even pick the stipulation.”
Autumn looks confused.
Autumn: “This some trick.”
Cid: “No. Just…something I
need to do.”
Cid turns and heads off as
Autumn looks confused as Cid walks off. Autumn then looks at the Tag Titles in
her hands as the scene fades to black.

Breakdown returns as we see
Kimberly Williams wandering through the backstage area, holding her SCW
Underground Championship.
Kim: “Oh….so they’re going to
attack. They’re going to have fun…”
Kim spins around.
Kim: “Where’s my backup?
Where’s Wasley? Or how about Sarah? I helped you last
week nearly commit murder….or Deanna? I got jumped by
three people. Come on by and flash your integrity! Huh!”
She starts singing almost, as
if this remains a game. Kim spins around again before continuing to wander off.
Kim: “Really? Playgirls?!”
Kim throws her arms up,
causing the Underground Title to flap around a bit before we cut away.
Danny Darko & Glory Braddock
vs. Jenni Anderson & Tsunami
The first chords of "When
Legends Rise" begins to play over the PA system. Glory Braddock steps out
onto the stage, wearing her ring gear consisting of purple spandex pants,
boots, and a purple top. She really does look like a million bucks and grins
from ear to ear, gazing out at the crowd for a moment before making her way down
the entrance ramp.
Phillips: “The following
contest is scheduled for onefall and has a twenty minute time limit. First, on her way to the ring,
from London, England, she is the British Bombshell, Glory Braddock!”
It's burning down, it's burning high
when ashes fall the legends rise
We burned it out oh my oh why
When ashes fall the legends rise
Throat is dry, my vision's fading
I'm paralyzed and left here waiting
Taking time just one step forward
Won't lose my mind, I'm here to stay
The British Bombshell steps up the steel steps and then onto the ring apron.
She poses momentarily on the apron, allowing people to take snapshots before
stepping through the ropes and into the ring. Once in the ring Glory
heads to the center of the ring and poses once more. Then the music dies down
slowly.
Sharper: “Glory Braddock had
other plans last week. They got derailed as Danny Darko, Christy Matthews, and
then Tsunami and Jenni Anderson arrived.”
Lyman: “And Anderson showcased
her new business deal and this is the other part of
the conditions they had. Apparently, the beginning of a tag team hope for Jenni
Anderson.”
The opening chords of
"Guilty All The Same" begin playing throughout the arena while at the
same time every light shuts off.
"Tell us all again
What you think we should be
What the answers are
What it is we can't see
Tell us all again
How to do what you say
How to fall in line
How there's no other way
But oh, we all know”
After that last verse when the chorus kicks in, the next round of heavy
guitars, bass, drums and screaming begin ringing out throughout the arena at
full force while right red flames shoot off from each side of the stage and
Darko slowly saunters down to the ring with a sinister and intense look on his
face.
Phillips: “Her partner, from
Portland, Oregon, he is Devious Danny Darko!”
"You're guilty all the same
Too sick to be ashamed
You want to point your finger
But there's no one else to blame
You're guilty all the same
Too sick to be ashamed
You want to point your finger
But there's no one else to blame
You're guilty all the same"
He nods his head to acknowledge the always raucous responses from the live
crowd. Once he steps into the ring he walks to the middle of the ring and
stands there for a few seconds before bright red flames shoot out from each of
the ringposts. Once the flames are finished, he
climbs each corner of the ring and raises his right fist in the air and yells
out to crowd to pump them up. He then turns and walks over to Glory as they
talk a bit.
Sharper: “Danny Darko making
his debut here in SCW. The veteran has been around. Twenty years. He’s finally
in SCW.”
Knots: “Maybe he’ll do a bit
more. Last week, he seemed a bit unwilling to get involved in the action.
Watching before helping Glory at the end.”
Sharper: “He got lumped in by
association regardless.”
“MONEY
MONEY
MONEY MAKE HER SMILE…”
The chorus line to Bruno Mars’ “Money Make Her Smile” plays out over the crowd
before the introductory organ plays out, leading into the full song. Jenni
Anderson steps out from the back, confidently striding as she stands before the
booing crowd, clad in her ring gear and a long fur coat. She lowers a pair of
obscenely expensive sunglasses. She stops and looks around. Tsunami then
appears on the ramp alongside Damron as “Open Up” by
Korn explodes into the arena. Lester Damron then
begins down the ramp with Tsumani close behind,
ignoring the hostile, booing crowd who already don't like them. Jenni Anderson
smirks as she walks to the ring too.
Phillips: “Their opponents,
accompanied by Lester Damron, they are the team of
Jenni Anderson and Tsunami!”
The crowd boos. Arriving at
the ringside area Tsumani reaches and pulls himself
up along the ropes before stepping over the top rope while Damron
watches in the corner the entire time. Once at the foot of the ring, Jenni
stands and instructs the referee to open the ropes for her, which undoubtedly
happens. Climbing onto the apron, she moves through the ropes and into the
ring. Tsunami looks toward the referee briefly in an intimidating manner
before going to his corner, receiving instruction from Damron
until the match begins. Jenni meanwhiles lowers the coat down her back, looking
out over the crowd as she removes her sunglasses entirely. She then sheds her
entrance attire and passes them gracefully to the timekeeper - if anything ends
up damaged, or one hair ends up out of place, she has the means to seek
recompense for them… a fact she reminds the handler of her property.
Sharper: “Two unique teams.
Both teaming for the first time.”
Lyman: “We know Jenni
eventually wants to be aiming for the tag titles but what about tonight?”
Knots: “Tonight, Tsunami wants
to do more damage to Glory! That’s for sure!”
Glory and Danny talk as
Tsunami steps forward. Jenni stands on the apron as Michael Constantine, the
official starts the match. Tsunami starts to head across as Danny steps up in
front of him. Glory watches him and then reluctantly exits. Tsunami then nails
Danny with a hard right and then another before pushing him into the ropes. He
fires Danny across. Danny bounces off and Tsunami runs at him. Danny ducks a
body avalanche attempt and stops. Tsunami turns and Danny forearms Tsunami in
the jaw once and then a second time before kicking him in the ribs. He goes to
whip him across. Tsunami stops and plants his feet and pulls him in, sending
him into the corner. Tsunami turns and runs at him. Danny gets his boot up.
Tsunami staggers back and Danny jumps up and hits a dropkick, taking the man
off his feet.
Sharper: “Danny looking spry
here. Nice dropkick. Tsunami off his feet.”
Knots: “He’s got some size so
he can hit with some force.”
Sharper: “Danny maybe wanting
to get his feet wet. Glory wants in. She won’t back down from challenges.”
Danny turns and Tsunami gets
up. Danny elbows him in the back of the head and then kicks him in the ribs. He
hooks him up for a vertical suplex. He tries to hoist
him up, but Tsunami blocks it. Danny tries again. Tsunami blocks it again and
then steps up and hoists him up and throws him down with a vertical suplex. Tsunami turns as Danny starts to get up and Tsunami
headbutts him. Darko drops to the mat and gets up and Tsunami shoves him back
hard into the corner where Glory awaits. Glory quickly tags in as Tsunami
smiles. Jenni shakes her head. Glory enters and Tsunami grabs her. Glory ducks
down and crawls through his legs. Tsunami stops forward and turns around and
Glory jumps up and hits a dropkick. Tsunami staggers back and Glory gets up and
runs into the ropes. She runs at him and jumps up for a shoulder tackle,
knocking Tsunami back and to the ropes. Tsunami falls through to the floor. The
crowd roars. (1) Jenni points as Constantine turns to her as Glory rolls to the
floor after.
Sharper: “Glory knocking
Tsunami to the floor!”
Lyman: “She’s already got a
plan.”
Darko looks over as Glory
clubs Tsunami repeatedly in the back. Jenni maintains her distraction as Glory
then turns and grabs one of the cables. The crowd roars as she goes to wrap it
around Tsunami’s arm.
Sharper: “She’s going to tie
him up again. Just like at Holly-Wood of the South!”
Knots: “Why not humiliate him
again?! That’s going to go well. Not like he holds a grudge!”
Sharper: “And Jenni I think
knows as she’s trying to distract referee Michael Constantine!”
Glory moves to another arm,
but Tsunami turns and throws her down. Glory falls back. She rolls over and
gets up as Darko keeps watching on the apron. Glory runs at Tsunami and Tsunami
hoists her up in a military press before throwing her chest first down on the
announce table. The table doesn’t budge as Tsunami rips the cords off of him. Jenni stops with her distraction as Constantine
walks over and starts his count again. (1) Glory stirs on the announce table
and Darko spins around the ringpost, now helping
Glory and stomping Tsunami in the head. He staggers back. (2) Darko then backs
up and dives off with a frog splash crossbody into Tsunami. Tsunami, however,
catches him. He then turns and runs at the ringpost,
driving him back first. Jenni applauds as she stands in the corner. (3)
Sharper: “Tsunami caught
Darko. This time, Darko getting involved and Tsunami caught him and drove him
into the ringpost.”
Knots: “Welcome to SCW!”
Lyman: “Jenni Anderson is just
loving this. Watching from the apron. Outside of a distraction, she’s not done
anything else.”
Tsunami turns and grabs Glory
as she stirs. (4) Tsunami then hoists her onto his shoulders and just throws
her through the ropes back into the ring. Constantine stops his count even
before Tsunami gets in as he grabs the ropes and pulls himself onto the apron
and into the ring. Glory rolls over and gets up and Tsunami runs at her and
hits a body avalanche. Glory drops to the mat. Tsunami looks around as Lester Damron applauds him. Jenni does too. Tsunami then runs into
the ropes, bouncing off and going for a running splash, but Glory rolls out of
the way. Tsunami this the mat. Tsunami winces and starts to get up and then
grabs Glory as she stirs. She drags her up and whips her into the ropes. He
scoops her up for a tilt-a-whirl, but Glory counters into a huge DDT. The crowd
roars.
Sharper: “Glory counters with
a huge DDT. Not giving up. We’ve seen her taking a more relaxed stance, but in
the ring, she’s still as dangerous and skilled as ever.”
Lyman: “Darko may be hurt. He’s
holding his lower back.”
Knots: “Well if you had a three hundred and fifty pound man sandwich you into steel,
you’d be in pain too!”
Darko winces and walks to the
corner, holding his back. He starts to pull himself onto the apron. He then
reaches out as Glory starts to pull herself up. She rolls over and looks
around. She then jumps to the middle rope and dives back with a lionsault. She hooks the leg.

Tsunami kicks out. Glory looks
up and gets up as Darko holds his arm out. Glory looks at him and then turns
and tags him in. Darko climbs up to the top rope as Tsunami starts to get up.
Glory then drops down and goes for a leg lace. Darko dives off with a missile
dropkick. Glory makes sure Tsunami goes down with the leg lace. Darko rolls
through. He then turns and runs jumps up and goes for the pin.

Tsunami kicks out. Glory exits
the ring. Jenni looks on as Darko rolls over. He looks at Tsunami as Tsunami
starts to roll over. Darko looks around and then grabs Tsunami. Darko clubs him
in the back once and then again. Tsunami shoves him back. Darko hits the
corner. Tsunami runs after and nails him with a running splash. The crowd ohs.
Darko staggers out. Tsunami turns and runs across the ring, bouncing off and
Darko hoists him up only for him to hit a variation of the How’s Your Spine,
more as a spinebuster into his knee. Darko rolls over, holding his lower back
and then his knee before crawling over to Glory. Glory extends her arm. Jenni
looks on Tsunami stirs.
Sharper: “Darko hoisting him up
and hitting the How’s Your Spine!”
Knots: “He should be asking
for his. He’s hurt. He’s holding his back. Clutching it repeatedly.”
Sharper: “He needs to get
Glory in there.”
Glory keeps her arm out as
Darko slides over and reaches out, tagging her in. Glory climbs up to the top
rope. She then dives off with the London Plunge. The crowd cheers. Glory goes
for the pin.

Jenni enters and dropkicks
Glory in the side of the head. The crowd ohs as she rolls off in pain. Jenni
smirks as she turns and exits the ring, dusting her hands off.
Sharper: “And Jenni involved.
First time we’ve seen her get involved offensively.”
Lyman: “And with an impact.”
Knots: “Glory could be out
from that. She didn’t miss!”
Glory winces as Darko kneels
in the corner. Tsunami stirs and starts to get up. He winces a bit as he gets
up. Lester encourages him as Glory grabs at the ropes. Tsunami then grabs Glory
and spins her around, pulling her into his arm and hitting a Rock Bottom. The
crowd ohs and boos. Tsunami then gets up and looks around before he grabs Glory
by her head again. He drags her up and places her head between his legs. He
looks around and then hoists her up and goes for the Splash Mountain. He holds
her up by her arms and Glory manages to start to kick her legs and gets free,
dropping down and into a sunset flip.
1!

3!
The crowd roars as Glory rolls
back and rolls to the floor. The bell sounds. Darko drops down too as Tsunami
turns and looks up stunned before starting to throw a tantrum. Lester enters
the ring as Jenni remains back.
Phillips: “Here is your
winner, via pinfall, Glory Braddock and Danny Darko!”
Sharper: “Glory countered and this time used his size against him!”
Lyman: “Turned him over in
such a way, he couldn’t kick out and Lester Damron is
trying to calm him down!”
Sharper: “Darko’s back issue
may not mean anything as Glory found a way. But Jenni Anderson…she just
watched!”
Knots: “She didn’t just watch.
She got involved!”
Sharper: “Yeah, once. So what’s really happening here?!”
Glory has her arm raised by
Darko, who grimaces in pain. Constantine moves to the floor as Lester starts to
calm Tsunami down as he keeps looking right at Glory. Jenni watches from the
floor as we cut away.
COMMERCIALS
Breakdown returns as we see
Lester Damron talking to Jenni Anderson backstage.
Damron: “Now Jenni…if we’re gonna continue, you need to carry your end of things-“
Anderson: “Mr. Damron…I plan to do just that. But I hope you realize that
I followed things in our agreement to the letter. You said to stay out of your
way while Tsunami seeks his revenge against Glory. I’ve given you as you asked.
Now I hope that he can move on…and together, we can reach greater goals.”
Damron turns to Tsunami who looks
around in the background. Lester turns back.
Damron: “Well…I may have misjudged
you and thought you weren’t that perceptive. But I guess we know the matter of
this relationship. Keep the funds comin’ and I’ll
have him ready.”
Anderson: “Excellent!”
Anderson walks off as Lester Damron turns to Tsunami.
Damron: “Let’s go.”
They head off in the opposite
direction.
The scene cuts to another part
of the arena where we see Danny Darko wincing as he walks into the trainer’s
room. Glory helps him over.
Darko: “Thanks, Glory…just…I
can take it from here.”
Braddock: “You sure. You seem
to be hurting.”
Darko: “The mix of taking a
few bumps and the impact of Tsunami…I’ll be fine…”
Braddock: “Alright.”
The door opens as the trainer
steps out. Danny turns to him.
Darko: “Hey doc. Got some time
for me.”
Braddock steps back as Darko
steps forward and into the door. Braddock walks off as Darko glances over and
watches her leave before relaxing a bit and stepping inside, closing the door
behind him.
Ricky James in action
We open up
at ringside to see a man wearing a cowboy hat and chaps. He throws his arms in
the air.
Phillips: “Fans, the following
contest is scheduled for onefall with a ten minute time limit. Already in the ring, from Calgary,
Alberta, Canada, he is The Cowboy Bret Storm!”
The crowd roars as Storm plays
to the crowd a bit. The sound of evil laughter is heard through the arena
speakers, followed by a slowed-down version of “Real American”. The crowd boos
as Rudy Powell emerges from behind the curtain wearing a suit, which already
appears to be quite damp. He dabs his head and looks around before pointing to
the back. He laughs as we then see a man, wearing Ricky James’s old luchador
mask, and wearing otherwise James’s attire, along with an American flag cape.
The new “Ricky James” steps up and puts his hands on his hips.
Sharper: “What the hell is
this?”
Lyman: “I think we now have a
new Ricky James…another one.”
Phillips: “His opponent, from
Miami, Florida, represented by Rudy Powell, he is Ricky James!”
The crowd boos as “Ricky
James” looks around, his bleached blonde hair also a dead give away he’s not
the original Ricky. Ricky then starts to walk down to the ring, with Rudy
Powell waddling next to him.
Sharper: “Clearly that’s not
the original Ricky James. Not unless he’s bleached his hair.”
Knots: “Powell’s made some
adjustments. Now he has a cape, but also apparently even wearing Ricky’s old
mask.”
Lyman: “Just adding to the
disrespect.”
Ricky reaches the ring and
hops onto the apron. He looks in the ring and steps in. He undoes his cape and
twirls it around before placing it down on the ropes. Rudy Powell walks over
and points to the flag and cackles before pulling it down. Powell then dabs
himself with his handkerchief as Ricky James looks at Bret Storm.
Sharper: “Ricky James at least
able to get into the ring.”
Knots: “An improvement over
the last Ricky James. By that I mean Rudy.”
Sharper: “Rudy’s just slowly
developing a puddle under him in corner.”
The bell sounds as Ricky and
Bret circle the ring and Bret runs at Ricky and nails him with a hard right and
then another and another, before pushing him back into the corner and hitting a
huge overhead chop. The crowd woos. Bret then grabs Ricky and whips him across
the ring. He runs after and Ricky steps out of the corner. Bret goes hard chest
first and staggers back as Ricky jumps off the ropes and hits a leg lariat. He
rolls through.
Sharper: “Hard run into the
turnbuckle. Storm looked to end this fast.”
Knots: “But Ricky…I guess, we
have to call him that…he moved out of the way.”
Lyman: “He has some skill.
Just who has Rudy conned to be in this position.”
Ricky turns as Storm gets up
and Ricky rakes the eyes. The crowd boos. He then chops him in the chest,
knocking him back to the corner. Storm leans back and Ricky chops him again and
then hits a hard right before hitting a beal out of
the corner. Storm rolls through. He gets up and Ricky runs at him and jumps up
and hits a flying headscissors. The crowd boos. Storm
rolls through. He gets up and turns and Ricky hits a dropkick. Storm hits the
mat and Ricky goes for the pin.

Storm kicks out. Ricky turns
and grabs Storm and drags him up. He nails him with a hard right and then
another. He goes to whip him across, but Storm spins through. Ricky hits the
ropes and bounces off and Storm drops down and into a rolling single leg crab.
The crowd roars as Ricky quickly crawls to the ropes.
Sharper: “Storm with a quick
hold, but Ricky James not even hesitating.”
Lyman: “While Rudy Powell
threatens the official, repeatedly.”
Powell points at him, yelling
at him.
Powell: “Break it! Break it or
I’ll sue! Sue you for everything you’re worth!”
Storm lets go and steps
forward. James winces, pulling himself up and Storm turns and runs at him, but
James gets a boot up. Storm staggers back as James runs out and hoists Storm up
and right into the Stand Your Ground. The crowd ohs. Storm winces and rolls
over as James starts to get up. Storm rolls over and holds his back. James
grabs him as Rudy keeps cheering him on.
Powell: “Show that you’re the
real one! Show the world!”
Powell smiles as James then
whips Storm into the ropes. Storm bounces off and James catches him into an
abdominal stretch. He then places his hand on his heart and starts to recite
the Pledge of Allegiance. The crowd boos as Powell cackles again.
Sharper: “And the Justice for
All. Hitting Ricky James’s greatest hits when he first came in.”
Knots: “Yeah. You can pretend
to be him all you want. Doesn’t make it true.”
James keeps the hold on as the
official checks on Storm. Storm shakes his head as James then elbows him in the
ribs. Storm stumbles forward and falls over as James steps back. Storm rolls
over in pain and James stomps him in the ribs before grabbing him and pulling
him up. He hoists him up and places him on the top rope. James then winces
before hitting the Hard Right to Storm’s jaw. Storm leans back and James climbs
up to the middle turnbuckle. He grabs Storm and sets him up, hooking his arm
and then his head. He looks around before stepping up and hitting the Art of
the Deal. The crowd ohs.
Sharper: “The Art of the Deal!
That top rope hammerlock DDT!”
Lyman: “Storm is out. He has to be.”
James rolls him over and hooks
the leg.

The crowd boos as the bell
sounds.
Phillips: “Here is your winner….via pinfall, Ricky James.”
Rudy Powell smiles and rubs
his hands as he starts to climb up the steel steps before then shaking his head
and stepping down. He motions to Ricky to come to him as Rudy seems winded now.
Ricky James rolls out of the ring and steps over to Powell. Powell points to
him before walking to the camera.
Powell: “Ricky James is back!
And we will make sure we give the world a hero they can count on!”
The crowd boos as Powell
smiles again as Ricky James turns and starts to walk to the back as Rudy
Powell, still winded, covered in sweat, starts to waddle to the back.
Lyman: “That’s not Ricky James
as we know him. That’s someone being Ricky James because Powell owns the
trademark.”
Sharper: “And this farce
continues.”
James and Powell head to the
back as the crowd boos.
“The Old Me” by Memphis May
Fire plays as the Breakdown logo comes up on the screen. A still of Selena
Frost vs. Owen Lee comes up next.
Sharper: “And from that…we
head to our main event. Selena Frost faces Owen Lee, next!”
Knots: “Don’t forget! Adam
Allocco is invited to watch!”
Lyman: “And Josh Hudson is
also here!”
Sharper: “What’s going to
happen?!”
The scene fades to black.
COMMERCIALS
Selena Frost vs. Owen Lee
The opening rifts to ‘Here we
Go’ by Chris Classic blasts through the PA, as mist fills the entranceway. The
music stops, a huge explosion rocks the entranceway and Owen jumps, seemingly
through the floor and landing on his feet, dropping to one knee and punching
the floor
“I been more than ready
Preppin' heavy
For this day to come”
Owen gets to his feet, and looks left and right at the reaction he is getting,
a look of focus and determination on his face as he takes in the crowd.
Phillips: “The following
contest is scheduled for onefall for TV time
remaining and is your main event of the evening. First, from Miami, Florida, he
is Owen Lee!”
“And so now nothing can stop me
I just grind and work
Yeah yeah, you know the motto
You know we goin' hard cause we might never see
tomorrow”
He begins the walk down to the ring, slapping the hand of anyone who offers,
before sliding in and under the bottom rope, before standing in the middle of
the ring his arms outstretched.
“I keep my eye on the fakes and got real from it
Mastered patience and free will from it
That's the real motivation some people kill for it
I keep reachin' for greatness because I'm built from
it”
Owen points to the turnbuckle and then runs towards it, bouncing on the middle
ropes and back flipping backwards, landing on both feet.
“Here we go
Give it a 100 never nothin' less
Here we go
We comin', you already know the rest
Here we go
We never settle 'cause we know it best
Who wanna test? Who?
Leave you outta breath”
Owen pulls on the top rope a couple of time, applauding the fans as his music
fades.
Sharper: “Owen Lee, the number
one contender to the SCW US Championship. He will face Josh Hudson in a
submission match at Rise to Greatness. That is official.”
Lyman: “He’ll have a tough
contest tonight though against Selena Frost. Long history here. Selena looking
to showcase herself, but Owen will be looking to do the same.”
BELIEVE IT!
The SCW Universe are on their feet as “Kings and
Queens” by Ava Max as plays throughout the arena, snow “falling” along the
electronic floor and screens as, out from the back walks the Snow Queen, Selena
Frost, taking in the crowd of the SCW Universe. The SCW World Championship is
around her waist.
Phillips: “His opponent, from
Nome, Alaska, she the SCW World Champion, the Snow Queen, Selena Frost!”
Slowly, Selena shifts her head, her sapphire eyes locked towards the ring as
she lifts her front hand gracefully, extending it towards the ring, palm
upward, her back arm lifted behind her to the sky. With a lift of her
right foot, she suddenly slams it down into the ground, causing a crack like ice
to form and sprint down the ramp and towards the ring!
Lowering her arms, the Winter’s Knight walks down the ramp, her steps leaving
footprints in the “snow” under her feet. Reaching the ring, Selena goes up the
steps and under the ropes to enter it. Once inside and in the center of the
ring, she lifts her hand up to give a twirl as the lights form to make a
massive snowflake under her. Stopping her spin and lowering her hand back down,
towards the audience, once again palm upright, a smirk graces her lips, her
other arm lifting to the sky once more. With a slam of her foot, Selena
caused the snowflake at her feet to “crack” as the rampway did, the shards of
ice streaking out to all four corners of the ring to shoot out blue sparkles of
light as the lights return to normal. She places her title in the corner.
Sharper: “Selena Frost watched
Adam Allocco here at ringside. Allocco wrestled a bit differently.”
Knots: “And Allocco said it!
He’s wrestling smarter, not harder. He’s going to do what he needs to win. To
get that title he’s never held.”
Sharper: “Selena Frost thought
it was cheap. But integrity playing a role for both and-“
The arena lights shutter off.
A single beam of golden light is cast down onto the center of the stage, accompanied
by a loud bass rumbling from the sound system. A light snowfall of sliver
confetti falls within the pillar of light. The rough guitar chords of 'Wired'
by JJ Wilder strike the sound system. Adam steps out, head hung low, into the
light. He slowly looks up, a blinding flash of light
accompanies him dropping down onto his knee. He raises his arms, almost as if
he's calling out to God.
“Fast cars good life what you waiting for?
Grow up perfect life knocking at your door
I’ve been working for myself since seventeen
Taking orders getting low on self-esteem”
Adam stands up and shoots a pose where he flexes his biceps before kicking his
foot up into the air and swinging towards the ramp. He saunters down slowly,
while he cocks a wily smile toward any nearby cameras. He forms a triangle with
both hands. He looks in the ring as Selena watches him. He walks around the
ring.
Sharper: “And for someone
saying they aren’t playing mind games, the fact that Adam waited to come out
last to watch Selena.”
Knots: “She wanted him to
watch. She wanted him out here. Don’t make excuses for her.”
Lyman: “She did, but clearly
Adam’s doing little things to get into her head.”
Knots: “Or he came out last!”
Adam walks over to the announce position. He stops and talks to the announce
table as the bell sounds in the ring.
Allocco: “Sorry kids. I’m
going to just watch. Give her my undivided attention!”
Allocco pulls the chair set
for him away from the table and sits down as Owen and Selena circle the ring.
Sharper: “Well that answers
one question.”
Knots: “He’s taking it
seriously!”
Owen and Selena step forward
and lock up on one another. They push back on one another and Owen sets Selena
back into the corner. Selena leans back as the crowd looks on. Demitra, the official, counts.

Owen steps back as a clean

around the ring before locking up again. Owen turns and goes for the side
headlock, but Selena slips out and grabs the arm and wrenches it. Owen winces
and flips forward and bridges up before twisting and ducking under and
wrenching Selena’s arm. Selena ducks under and grabs Owen and takes him down
with a headlock takedown. Owen counters with a headscissors.
Selena nips out. Both get up and Owen hits a snap headlock takedown on Selena.
Selena counters with a headscissors. Owen nips out.
Both get up and look at one another, ready to fight, but hesitating. The crowd
cheers. Selena steps back as Owen does too. The two circle the ring.
Sharper: “And a stalemate as
they go back and forth!”
Lyman: “Now they’re both
figuring out what next to try. Both can compete in a variety of different
styles.”
Selena and Owen continue to
circle before Selena lunges at Owen. Owen hops over her and runs into the
ropes. Selena rolls toward him. Owen hops over and bounces off the other side.
Selena gets up and leapfrogs over. Owen ducks under and bounces off and Selena
goes for a hip toss, but Owen spins through and hip tosses Selena. Owen goes to
grab her. Selena shoves him off with her feet. Owen rolls back. Selena gets up.
Owen runs at her and Selena hits an arm drag. Owen rolls through. Both get up
and both go for dropkicks. Both miss. They get up and
Owen pushes Selena back into the corner. He forearms her in the jaw once and
then twice before going for a third one, but Selena blocks it and hits a quick
knee strikes to the jaw. Owen falls back. Selena runs forward and flips through
into a jackknife pin.

Lyman: “The pace picking up

Adam watches as Selena grabs

whip him across the ring and Owen runs across and runs up the corner. Selena
runs after and Owen stops at the top and backflips back. Selena ducks under to
the corner. Owen lands on his feet and Selena runs at him and spins around him
into a school boy of her own.

ring!”

and boots him in the face. He grabs him and throws him into the ropes and
before Owen can react, he just muscles him into the top rope and hooks him in
the ropes. Selena starts to get up and turns and sees this as Owen tries to get
free.

ropes! Hudson using his strength, the fact he’s fresh…”
Knots: “The adrenaline gone
for Owen and now he’s at his whim!”
Lyman: “There’s Selena
though!”

before turning to Owen. Hudson says something to Owen before moving over to

the ring. Hudson is just about to lock it in and Adam boots him in the side of
the head. Hudson rolls away from Selena and to the ropes. Owen looks on as he
keeps trying to get out, now with the help of the official.

love in the Severin Mission on Selena! He was going to make Owen watch!”
Knots: “Adam helped her?!”
Selena rolls over as Allocco
steps forward. Hudson looks at Allocco stunned. Allocco then points to Selena
and then himself. Hudson just looks stunned as Owen is freed. Hudson then rolls
to the floor and backs away as Owen goes to grab at him, stopped only by the
ropes.
Sharper: “Adam Allocco saving
Selena and Hudson is stunned! Is this more mind games?”
Lyman: “He was pointing to
himself. I think he said Selena is his…”
Hudson backs up as Allocco
watches him. Deanna heads out from the back with some other officials. Allocco
then turns and exits the ring as Selena looks up at him, confused. Owen gets up
and turns to Allocco, not trusting him either as the scene fades to black…
