The scene cuts to a panning shot of the inside of the Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The crowd cheers as spotlights circle the arena.

 

“Ladies and gentlemen, your host for the SCW End of the Year Awards, Shawn Winters!”

 

“Oh, oh, ohhhhh, Shawn!”

 

“I’m So Paid” by Akon plays as the crowd roars and Shawn Winters walks out from the back, wearing a tuxedo. He looks around the arena and heads over to the podium and stands behind it. The music plays for a few moments longer before cutting out.

 

Shawn: “Welcome everyone to the yearly tradition where we look at the year that was and I have to come on New Year’s Eve here instead of getting to party back at home.”

 

Shawn sighs.

 

Shawn: “At least Toronto has a decent enough nightlife.”

 

The crowd boos a bit.

 

Shawn: “Hey. I’m just being honest. I was forced to come out here to host this deal since they’re paying me a lot of money and since the pre-show and intermission shows are done, well, apparently, they want me to earn it. So screw it! I’m here! And I get to hand out some trophies.”

 

Shawn shrugs.

 

Shawn: “So without further ado, let’s get this shit started. And tonight, we’re starting the awards portion by crowning the Rookie of the Year. It was a year that saw a lot of new faces make some big impact, but only one can take home this award. The man or woman who in their first year of SCW competition made the biggest impact.”

 

Shawn turns and grabs the envelope for the Rookie of the Year award. He then opens it up. He slides the card out.

 

Shawn: “Well, looks like something runs in the family. Your rookie of 2018…Owen Cruze!”

 

The crowd cheers as Southpaw Swagger’s “It’s Showtime” starts to play. A few moments pass before Owen Cruze walks out from the back, beaming. He looks around as Shawn Winters turns and hands him the 2018 End of the Year Award. Owen looks at it and smiles before walking over to the podium. Shawn turns and walks off, motioning for a drink as he heads through the curtain. Owen’s music fades out.

 

Owen: “This is surreal…the moment I stepped into SCW at the Trios Tournament and looked to follow in my father’s footsteps…a lot of people thought I wouldn’t make it. A lot of people thought that maybe I was in over my head and let’s be clear, I got my ass kicked a lot to start. I quickly found out what I signed up for. But over this year, I’ve grown as a competitor. Facing some of the top people in this year. From lasting over an hour in the Taking Hold of the Flame battle royal, to managing to beat Selena Frost in a match I will always remember, to standing up to Regan Street and Giovanni Aries…and it’s just the start.”

 

Owen pauses.

 

Owen: “Tonight, I’m going to be a part of that End of the Year battle royal and I’m hoping to do what I can to win it all so I can help others. But along with helping others, I’m going to help SCW. On Breakdown, Katya, Dark Fantasy, you crossed several lines. And I don’t care if this puts a target on my back. I’m going to be ready for anything you throw at me and I’m going to keep standing up for what I believe it and no matter what, I’m not going to let you do whatever you want without some consequences!”

 

The crowd roars.

 

Owen: “This says I’m the Rookie for this year…but now I’m grown-up and ready for whatever fresh hell you want to throw at me!”

 

Owen backs up as the crowd roars. “It’s Showtime” plays as Owen looks around and holds the award up. He then backs up and turns as Shawn sticks his head out from the curtain.

 

Shawn: “Apparently I gotta introduce your commentators, so yadda, yadda, yadda, Adam Sharper and Jonathan Knots!”

 

Shawn dips back behind the curtain as we cut to ringside to see Adam Sharper and Jonathan Knots at the announce table.

 

Sharper: “Well, thank you Shawn. And congratulations to Owen Cruze.”

 

Knots: “Yeah, indeed. Kid showed up this year and hard to disagree with that one.”

 

Sharper: “And just the start of night. Many more accolades to come and a lot of action in this ring including the End of the Year Open Invitational.”

 

We cut to see the 2019 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 parked next to the stage.

 

Knots: “There’s one of the prizes. The new Corvette ZR1. Along with that, a quarter of a million dollars too.”

 

Sharper: “And people have been signing up. Owen Cruze making it clear he’ll be a part of it. Who knows who else we’ll see. Along with that, Marie Jones will face Sienna Swann for the World Title.”

 

Knots: “And some grudge matches. Justin Davis will get Josh Hudson, no DQ, no countouts. It’s going to be a fight. But also Kennie and Trinity, they’re going to get their hands on the Trueloves!”


Trinity Street & Kennedy Street vs. Truelove Twins

 

“Just A Dream” by Nelly plays throughout the arena, a gold spotlight with blue flashers begin to circle the entranceway. The Twins, London and Paris Truelove walk out holding hands. They look at each other and pose for the cameras before Laura Steinbeck walks out with LEO and nods, leading the Twins toward the ring…..
 
Phillips: “The following contest is a tag team match scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, accompanied to the ring by Laura Steinbeck and LEO, representing the Beauty Factory, from Johannesburg, South Africa, London and Paris the Truelove Twins!”
 
The Twins then make their way down the aisle interacting with the fans as they both get to the apron at the same time, LEO climbs up first, allowing the Twins to get in the ring, Paris & London, who follows showing off her “assets.” London then holds the ropes for Paris as she slowly gets in the ring shaking her “assets” and winking in the camera. LEO then holds the ropes for Laura as she slowly gets in the ring. They both walk to the turnbuckles, climb to the second ropes and pose for the flashes while Laura stands in the middle of the ring and points to the Truelove Twins. They get down and await the match to start as Laura makes her way to the corner along with LEO.
 
Sharper: “The Truelove Twins have had a good year, but they want to finish it with a huge victory over the Street Legacy and look to get the Tag Team title which escaped them this year in 2019. They will also be ready to watch Sienna Swann try to end the year as World Champion, this could be a great end to a tremendous year to the Beauty factory or a devastating one after the 2018 they have had.”
 
Knots: “Kennedy and Trinity have been looking forward to this match for a long time after Bound by Blood, all I can tell you is they are ready, the Twins better be, we are ringing in the New year right, here.”
 
“Awake & Alive” plays throughout the arena .....
 
The lights go out.....
 
The video package plays on the Tron of Kennedy Street Posing and wrestling, then Trinity in her Monarchy days, posing on the top rope and followed by action in the ring. The two sisters then stand all posing in front of the camera before the chorus plays on the entrance theme, it then starts to play each of them in action performing their finishers on various opponents.
 
Phillips: “Their opponents, hail from Malibu California in the way of Kensington, England. The “Sexy Flawless Diva” Kennedy Street, the “Matriarch of Monarchy” Trinity Street…. The Street Legacy!”
 
A single spotlight shines in the entranceway as both Kennedy and Trinity Street come out to the roar of the fans. The two poses in front of the entranceway looking out to the fans stoically while a chorus of cheers rain down on them. A shower of fireworks streams down behind them before they slowly make their way to the ring, Kennedy clapping hands with fans and taking selfies, Trinity keeping her eye on the ring though taking time to slap a few hands.
 
As they reach the apron. Trinity goes up first and holds the ropes open for Kennedy as she steps in first followed by Trinity. The elder Trinity takes the hood off her coat and climbs the second rope raising her arms in the air while Kennedy does the same with her hood and is on the opposite rope following her older sister.
 
Trinity back flips off, Kennedy jumps down and rolls to her feet as she takes off her coat, Trinity returns the gesture as the two begin to talk strategy and prepare for the Truelove Twins, the referee checks on both tag teams, Trinity and Kennedy decide who is going to start the match when suddenly they are attacked by the Truelove Twins. Kennedy falls out of the ring, leaving Trinity to be double teamed by the Twins. The referee calls for the bell and the start of the match. London grabs Trinity as Paris kicks her a few times in the midsection, whipping her into the turnbuckle and then following with London whipping Paris into her with a hard clothesline, London follows causing Trinity to stumble out of the corner and then double bulldogged, they turn her over and Paris makes the cover…

Trinity kicks out!
 
The referee is trying to get London to the corner. She argues with the referee as Kennedy tries to get back up and, in the ring, LEO though grabs her from behind taking her legs out from under her as she falls flat on the floor. He steps away innocently while the referee was distracted by London who is now in her corner….
 
Sharper: “The Twins attacked the Street Legacy and didn’t give them the chance to get ready! LEO already making his presence known! He isn’t letting her get back int her ring!”
 
Knots: “This is ridiculous, it’s the same thing they did at Bound by Blood, Kennedy and Trinity had a whole team to face! Now LEO isn’t letting her in and Trinity is already getting double teamed!”
 
Paris picks up Trinity by the hair, she snapmares her over, delivering a stiff kick to the middle back, Trinity screams in pain before she runs the opposite way with a basement dropkick, Paris quickly drops for the pin fall cover…
 
1!
 
Trinity forcefully kicks out!
 
Paris grabs Trinity by the ankle and starts to drag her, Kennedy is still on the floor, trying to get her bearings back, slowly getting up, LEO is lurking while Laura looks on. Paris tags in London, they both hold one of Trinity’s legs and fall back making a wish, she rolls in pain, trying to get something going but can’t. London grabs her by the hair, gets Trinity on her feet and tells Paris to hold up her foot, she rams Trinity’s head into the foot as she stumbles back, London finishes it off with a Sling Blade clothesline. The crowd boos as Kennedy is trying to get back in the ring, London sees this and goes to knee her knocking her back down to the floor. She smirks before turning around right into a small package from Trinity and caught by surprise….
 
1!
 
2!
 
Paris Breaks the Pin!
 
She kicks Trinity again as the referee is trying to get her back in the corner. Trinity gets up, London tries to scoop her up, but Trinity falls behind her and hits a German Suplex, the fans roar as Trinity looks at the corner, but Kennedy is just getting up to her corner, still on the floor. London drags herself to tag Paris, she does, just then Kennedy starts to get on the apron, Paris quickly runs at her but Kennedy drops the ropes that causes Paris momentum to carry her over the top rope, Trinity quickly dives and tags as the crowd roars, Kennedy stays on the apron, hopes on the second rope and hits an Asai Moonsault on Paris as the crowd erupt in Toronto…
 
Sharper: “Kennedy Street was able to use Paris momentum and cause her to go over the top rope and was able to make a tag, a beautiful Asai Moonsault on Paris and the Streets are back in this after an early onslaught!’
 
Knots: “Kennedy is back in and she wasn’t going to allow this to continue, I know how bad she wants to end the New Year on a high note and she’s about to do it! Come on Kennie!”
 
The crowd cheers as Kennedy grabs Paris and goes to throw her into the barricade but LEO stops her, standing right in front of them, preventing Kennedy to make the whip, the referee tells him to get back to the corner as he starts the count. (1) Kennedy shrugs her shoulders and throws Paris right into LEO. He catches her, and Kennedy then dropkicks Paris causing LEO to stumble back as the crowd roars. (2) Kennedy then grabs Paris and slams her face into the apron a few times before launching her back into the ring, she rolls in right after her. The count stops, Paris gets up and turns right into the Apple of My Eye, the crowd roars as Kennedy drops for the cover …

3… No Paris gets her shoulder up just as London was trying to come in!
 
Kennedy grabs Paris and picks her up, unloading with a few forearm shots, backing her up, she goes to whip her, Paris reverses, she tries to do a back drop but Kennedy leap frogs, before Paris can do anything Kennedy kicks her in the back of the leg and delivers the Ride of Coventry, she quickly drops for the cover….
 
1!
 
2!
 
London breaks up the count!
 
Kennedy gets up and points at London who screams at her to come, Kennedy then turns around right into a Jawbreaker by Paris, the distraction was enough for Paris to regain some strength but falls right next to Kennedy.
 
Sharper: “The distraction was enough! Kennedy took a vicious shot by Paris and is stunned, the Twins have really knocked the Street Legacy off their game, Kennedy with an outburst but here comes London.”
 
Knots: “They are slick, they have the numbers, Kennedy needs to stay focused on her opponent in the ring, too many distractions here!”
 
Kennedy starts to get up, Paris rolls over when London runs in, the referee stops her just as Trinity come sin to stop her, suddenly he turns his attention to Trinity, London rolls Paris out of the ring and takes her place, acting hurt….
 
Sharper: “The switcharoo by the Twins!”
 
Knots: “Oh come on!”
 
Trinity tries to point it out, but the referee tells her to get back to the corner. She does, then he turns around, Kennedy tries to get up but London now acting like Paris kips up and starts kicking Kennedy a few times, she grabs her by the hair and whips her into the turnbuckle, charging in with a shoulder block, then another and another, hosting Kennedy up to the top turnbuckle, she then climbs to the second rope, she forearms Kenned a few times before finally standing on the top and signaling for a Hurricarana but Kennedy hangs on and London lands flat on her stomach as the crowd cheers. She staggers up and Kennedy hits a missile dropkick sending London to the opposite side of the ring. Kennedy then slowly gets up, London rolls over seeing that she is trying to tag Trinity, she jumps as London dives to grab her, the crowd roars when Trinity is tagged in, she hops in and starts hitting London with left’s, rights, a kick to the gut and a quick stunner, London pops back up and Trinity hits a head scissor take down! London tries to get up and Trinity catches her in a Northern Lights Suplex with a bridge, the crowd explodes as she goes for the cover….
 
1!
 
2!
 
3… No! Paris breaks the fall!
 
Trinity gets up, she punches Paris a few times, the referee gets in between the two, she quickly turns to London and hits The House of Street, savate kick, London drops to the mat as Trinity falls on her for the cover, but the referee is distracted with Paris, trying to get her to the corner. Trinity screams at him to turn around….
 
Knots: “Turn around ref!”
 
Sharper: “The Twins are doing a good job of distracting the official! Trinity has London down!”
 
The referee finally gets Paris to the corner, he turns around and sees the cover, dropping down for the count….
 
1!
 
2!
 
3… No! London Kicks Out!
 
Trinity looks up at the referee, he holds up two fingers. She just shakes her head and gets up, picking up London and placing her in a front face lock before hoisting her up and delivering a snap suplex, rolling over for the cover….
 
1!
 
2!
 
Kick Out By London!
 
Trinity again wastes no time, she picks up London, this time she signals for “Thy Kingdom Come”, she hooks the front face lock, suddenly Paris rushes in with a huge clothesline taking Trinity down, Kennedy tries to get in the ring but the referee stops her, again the Twins switch, this time Paris rolling out London, lying on the mat feigning being hurt….
 
Sharper: “The Twins have made an art out of this and if they continue there is no way the Legacy can compete with this. Every time they get the upper hand, a switch happens or LEO. Trinity and Kennedy at Bound By Blood fought so hard against the entire opposing team with LEO, the odds are still against them.”
 
Knots: “The Beauty Factory seem to have an answer for everything right now but that is quickly going to change, damn it! Kennedy and Trinity are too smart for this!”
 
Trinity tries to get up, suddenly Paris grabs her and delivers a powerful Belly to Belly suplex, she hooks the leg for the cover….
 
1!
 
2!
 
3… No! Trinity Kicks Out!
 
Kennedy jumps up and down on the apron, screaming for her sister to tag her in, she starts to crawl a little, Paris grabs Trinity by the hair, she picks her up and delivers a side suplex, rubbing her forearm across the face of Trinity and screaming at her to stay down, she slams the mat for the referee to make the cover….
 
1!

Trinity Kicks Out!
 
Paris looks over at London who is back on the apron, she nods, throwing Trinity into her as she delivers a smashing elbow, tagging in London, they set up Trinity in the corner, Paris drops to her fours, London runs across the room, leaping off and hitting Trinity with a reverse side kick, she drops to the canvas and London goes for the cover…
 
1!
 
2!
 
3… No! Trinity gets her shoulder up!
 
The crowd roars, they start to chant Trinity who slowly gets to her knees, London leaps over in a Magistral Cradle for the cover….
 
1!
 
2!
 
Kick Out by Trinity!
 
The frustration gets to London who slaps her hands fast and repeatedly for the referee to count faster. Laura yells from the outside as the referee tells her to stop. Kennedy continues to yell at Trinity who is out on her feet, suddenly London drags her up, she runs at Kennedy and hits her off the apron, Kennedy lands on her feet, London then tags Paris, they both stand waiting for Trinity to slowly turn around and hit Double the Pleasure….
 
Sharper: “Trinity is out on her feet, if the Twins hit this stereo superkicks, it’s over!”
 
Knots: “Kennedy needs to stop this, they haven’t allowed her to get into any rhythm!”
 
The Twins go for the superkick but Trinity ducks, they stumble forward, turn around to face her not seeing Kennedy behind them running and delivering a double face smash as the crowd roars. She quickly gets back to the corner, jumping up and down, Trinity makes her way to the corner, Paris and London get up, Trinity dives and makes the tag, the crowd roar, Kennedy gets in, she hits a double dropkick on both Twins, Paris flies out of the ring, London drops to the mats, Kennedy then grabs her and throws her into the ropes, she answers back with a huge back body drop, London gets up quickly and Kennedy rocks her with a huge spear, the crowd roars as she lands on her for the cover….
 
1!
 
2!
 
3… No LEO drags Kennedy off from the outside!
 
Sharper: “LEO saved the match! Kennedy a house of fire and she is in control!”
 
Knots: “Throw him out, now!”
 
Kennedy rolls over and stares at him, she doesn’t see Paris get up and make the blind tag on London, Kennedy turns and then Paris kicks her in the gut, she rolls behind her with a back cracker! Kennedy arches in pain as Paris yells at her that she will always be better. Picking up Kennedy, she screams at London, they pick her up for the Twin Killing….
 
Knots: “No Kennedy!”
 
Sharper: “Twin Killing, the Twins have their number!”
 
They are about to execute the move when Trinity hits London from the side with a vicious knee knocking her to the mats, rolling on the apron almost tot eh floor as Laura checks on her, Paris looks and still tries to do the Twin Killing with her Reverse Flying Sidekick but isn’t able, Kennedy forearms her instead stopping the motion, she stumbles back, LEO hops on the apron and Trinity flies through the ropes and tackles him to the floor as the arena erupts, Paris is in shock, she then turns around and Kennedy kicks her in the gut, she tries to lift her up over her shoulder but Paris falls behind her, she then hooks her around the waist, Kennedy elbows her and reverses it, Paris does the same, breaking the hold, Kennedy stunned, she turns and again Paris goes for the Reverse Flying Sidekick, Kennedy though hits the Touch of Class on Paris while she is in mid air as the crowd explodes and Paris lands on the mats….
 
Sharper: “What was that!? Touch of Class right on the money while she was in midair!?”
 
Knots: “Trinity eliminated London and LEO! Kennie hit all of that, pin her!”
 
Kennedy falls on Paris and hooks the leg for the cover just as London starts to get her bearings, she crawls to the pinfall…
 
1!
 
2!
 
3!
 
The bell rings as London was too late, Kennedy rolls off Paris and screams, stomping the mat as Trinity slides in and jumps on her sister in joy …
 
Sharper: “What a match! The Street Legacy close out the 2018 in victory and wow! They have just given the Truelove Twins their first tag team pinfall loss! Is this a taste of things to come for the Beauty Factory tonight!?”
 
Knots: “They worked too hard for this Sharper, Bound by Blood was etched int heir memory and they were not about to let this one go! This is a taste of things to come for Kennedy and Trinity in 2019! Take nothing from the Twins, they are still one of the premier tag teams here and will eventually get their title shot but tonight, it belonged to the Street Legacy!”
 
Kennedy and Trinity continue to hug in the ring as London drags Paris put of the ring, LEO helps her up, scooping her over his shoulder as the feisty Twin starts to come to and tries to get back in the ring all dazed and confused. Laura stares into the ring right at the Streets as she starts to lead the Twins back….
 
Phillips: “The winners of the match by pinfall…. The Street Legacy!”
 
Awake and Alive” play throughout the arena, Trinity helps up Kennedy as they both hugs again, the referee raising their arms up, Kennedy points at Knots and Sharper and winks…
 
Sharper: “They did it, were able to get a little bit of revenge and stand tall here tonight but this war is far from over, at least for tonight, the Street Legacy end the year on a high note and I look forward to what they do in 2019!”
 
Knots: “Nothing but right to the top, Sharper. Now if you excuse me, the party is starting early!”
 
Sharper: “Get up there Jon and celebrate!”
 
Knots takes off the headset and rolls into the ring, he hugs and kisses his wife, then Trinity as they continue to celebrate in the middle of the ring While Paris, London and Laura look on, LEO carrying Paris and helping London to the back….


We hear the sounds of Christmas and other holiday type music in the background as the camera pans across a series of Christmas ornaments.

 

“Every year as the holidays pass, and you wonder what to do with your Christmas carols and other holiday festivities, wonder what happens with such dusty treasures. Well, the people at KABLAMlabs have come to you with a solution.”

 

More shots of Christmas ornaments are seen before we see them shaking, almost swaying as the tree also starts to sway too.

 

“From the author of the KABLAMA Sutra, the makers of KABLAMaerobics and the KABLAMathon, we give you a Very KABLAM! Christmas!”

 

We then see a shot of Derek Adonis wearing a KABLAM-approved Christmas sweater as he smiles.

 

“You will hear such great classics as…”

 

We then hear someone else singing as Derek Adonis gives us his charm as only he can.

 

“[KABLAM!] Bells, [KABLAM!] Bells, [KABLAM! KABLAM! KABLAM!]”

 

The angle changes.

 

“And, the great…”

 

“Oh [KABLAM!}nnenbaum. Oh[KABLAM!]nnenbaum!”

 

The angle changes again as we see him now with Cookie Dreams.

 

“But of course, Man Mountain developed his own takes on the classics. Like this extended version of one of the songs you just heard.”

 

We then hear, we assume Derek Adonis, singing to the tune of the first verse of Jingle Bells.

 

“KABLAM!ing through the snow, in our special hot-tub, making sure no one sees, the KABLAM!ing all the way!”

 

“Or what about this one?”

 

We cut to see Derek Adonis with Chesty Larue as a song plays to the tune of Grandma Got Run Over by A Reindeer.

 

“Grandma got “KABLAM!” by Man Mountain! She could not stop talking about what they did. You can say there’s no thing as pure pleasure, but as for Grandma, she believes.”

 

Derek then looks at the camera.

 

Adonis: “And you can too with the KABLAMA Sutra. Now in Swahili!”

 

Adonis smiles at the camera.

 

“But that’s not all. Even you can enjoy this pleasurable twist on a classic.”

 

Adonis can be seen as Chesty Larue and Cookie Dream are playing piano together somehow. Adonis leans against it as the tune of Clarence Carter’s Back Door Santa plays.

 

“They call me Back Door Santa

Only with your permission and care

They call me Back Door Santa

Make sure you’re relaxed there

I’ll make you and I both happy

While you beg for more all day!”

 

“And of course, who can forget this classic with Derek giving us his personal addition.”

 

Derek Adonis can be seen standing in a room, listening to the song “The Stocking Song” by Steel Panther.

 

“How about a little eggnog, I got a homemade recipe, You’re gonna get love-drunk on my eggnog, Even though its alcohol-free…”

 

Adonis: “KABLAM!”

 

We cut back to see an opaque shot of  Cookie, Chesty and Derek as the camera pans across to a shot of the front of the album cover.

 

“Order today, and enjoy a Very KABLAM! Christmas, good all year round, but also with the newest edition of the KABLAMA Sutra, six condoms for your protection and hers, and a complementary bottle of Mountain Mango, the newest personal helper for all your KABLAMing needs! Available at participating stores.”

 

We abruptly cut to Derek Adonis again.

 

Adonis: “KABLAM!”

 

The scene fades to black.


We cut backstage to find Liane Forte leaning against the wall just outside of a locker room door that we see has Aaron Blackbourne's nameplate on it, which gets a few cheers from the fans watching out in the arena. Liane's humming to herself as she checks her phone with a smile on her face.

???: “Aw, and here I was hoping I might get a chance to see how far you've come for myself tonight sis.”

Liane quickly lowers her phone and turns towards where the voice comes from, but her eyes widen and her stance softens a bit when she sees whoever it is.

Liane: “Lane!? What are you doing here?”

The camera pans back a bit as a second woman enters the shot, already looking dressed to compete unlike Liane. Judging from the interaction we've had so far, it's safe to assume that this is Lane, a sister of Liane's.

Lane: “What does it look like Liane? I came here to compete! Was kind of hoping I might see you in that invitational later, but... I guess it's one and done for you, huh?”

Liane: “You saw that, huh? Sorry I kind of got into this before you did, given that anything athletic is always your thing. I just couldn't-”

Lane: “Relax Liane, I'm not mad. A little jealous maybe, but I saw the whole thing go down and I don't blame you. It's like we always say...”

Liane and Lane: “When a Forte finds something that means everything to them, we'll defend it tooth and nail.”

There's a small laugh shared between the sisters at reciting their little family mantra at the same time.

Lane: “So? Where's your boyfriend?”

Liane: “He's inside. I'm giving him some space so he can properly 'transform' for the invitational later.”

The sound of that word and what it likely means gets the fans cheering out in the arena at something they haven't been able to see for quite some time.

Lane: “I was hoping to meet him before, but I guess there's always afterwards. Well, I better go finish getting all stretched out. It was good seeing you again Liane... I know it's not said very often, but it's just not the same without you around. And... you did an awesome job last week!”

Liane: “Thanks Lane, that means a lot.”

Lane: “And don't worry about Scarlet... if she didn't take the hint last week, I'll make sure she understands if I see her tonight. Also... tell your boyfriend I'm sorry in advance after I win this thing! Booyah!”

Lane pumps her fist before jogging away as Liane watches her leave, rolling her eyes and chuckling to herself.

Liane: “Still has to be the best at everything... she hasn't changed that much.”

It's at this point that the door to Aaron's locker room is opened a tiny crack, which Liane takes as a sign to enter to see what the fans won't get a chance to see until later, and she slips inside and closes the door again, leaving us to briefly linger on this shot and what Blackbourne has planned for tonight.


We cut back to the stage to see Shawn Winters out at the podium with a tumbler of ice and some amber liquid. He takes a sip and leans into the microphone.

 

Shawn: “Don’t worry. I’m going to be celebrating the end of this year.”

 

The crowd roars.

 

Shawn: “Now we talked about the Rookie of the Year earlier, but next, we’ve got the Star of Tomorrow. The person who is tapped to be the next CHBK, the next Syren, the next Sienna Swann, the next Street, the next Shawn Winters…”

 

Shawn smirks.

 

Shawn: “And there are a lot of big names on this list. So without further ado.”

 

Shawn takes a sip of his drink. He then stops.

 

Shawn: “Oh yeah, the envelope.”

 

Shawn puts the tumbler down. He then turns to envelope and slides out the card. He then smirks.

 

Shawn: “We may HATE this one…Your Star of Tomorrow…Andrew Raynes!”

 

The crowd boos as Shawn Winters grabs his tumbler. He turns as “Through Struggle” by As I Lay Dying plays. A few moments pass before Andrew Raynes saunters out from the back. He looks at Shawn as Shawn lifts his tumbler toward Raynes and then walks off. Raynes just watches him as Raynes turns and walks over to the podium and the End of the Year award that sits on the podium. He grabs it and looks at it. His music fades out.

 

Raynes: “Star of Tomorrow…heh…”

 

Raynes just smirks as he looks out at the crowd who boos him.

 

Raynes: “I’m already a star today. But just the fact that I’m in this list and in the running for this award was a smack in the face as this company continues to prove that it doesn’t respect what I do and wants to keep me down. I held the Adrenaline Championship for damn near the entire year! I ‘m going to be getting back the World Tag Team Champions the moment someone has the balls to do what they know is right.”

 

Raynes looks at the crowd.

 

Raynes: “But that’s fine…Because you know what I think about this…”

 

Raynes looks at the award before dropping it onto the stage and stomping on it. The crowd boos as Raynes then stomps it again, causing it to snap in two.

 

Raynes: “The moment that worthless bitch Amy Chastaine had anything to do with holding this award, it became USELESS! And the fact that I’m already a star shows that it’s not even worth keeping for motivation. SCW…do better…because I don’t need to. I’m already at my own damn level!”

 

Raynes turns and storms off to the back. The crowd boos as the camera focuses on broken award on the stage as the scene slowly fades to black.


“The SCW End of the Year Awards…Feud of 2018…”

 

Giovanni Aries: “JUDAS!”

 

We open up to see a shot of Ace Marshall stepping out of a car in the middle of a desert camp. He looks around.

 

Ace: “Yoo-hoo! I’m huntin’ wabbits! Come out and show me this God damned Wonderland!”

 

We then cut to a shot of Lizard dancers in a strip club, before showing Cassidy Carter and Ace Marshall standing in the ring. Shots of horribly edited fire over the Wonderland theme park follow before showing Giovanni Aries sitting in the backstage area, naked, although with everything cover up enough. We then cut to show Ace getting thrown face first into a car hood before Ace slides down to the dirt as Giovanni Starts to go through his trunk.

 

Giovanni: “Let’s see what you brought as your weapons of war.”

 

We then cut to se Giovanni throwing Ace Marshall over a bonfire, Ace narrowly missing it.

This is followed by a shot of Ace driving a Hitachi Magic Wand into the head of Giovanni, causing it to break. We then cut to a shot of Giovanni Aries looking at Memphis Cade.

 

Giovanni: “Are you the messenger from that JUDAS….”

 

Memphis: “Yeah man. Look, just take this. This is the directions to the location for battle or some shizz. “

 

This is followed by Memphis getting his arm caught in a door as Giovanni grabs him and kicks him in the throat.

 

Giovanni: “Disgusting…now engaging in petty theft. Ruining the innocents in your blood war against the Wonderland!”

Ace: “Lizardesses! The Lizard King wants you to give him a special show.”

This is followed by a shot of the “Lizard King” as Cassidy and Ace have a turtle in their hands, followed by that turtle being shown on a throne. We then cut to show Ace bloodied as Giovanni nails him with a series of hard right hands in the middle of the ring. This is followed by showing Giovanni throwing Ace Marshall into a steel cage before showing Ace collapsing, covered in blood.

 

A quick cut to show the end of their first match at Retribution, where Katie Steward nailing Giovanni Aries with a chair shot before Katie hits the Off with her Head. We then cut to see Ace shoving Giovanni Aries through the hole of the Wonderland platform.

 

Phillips: “Here is your winner of the Wonderland Match…Ace Marshall!”

 

Sharper: “I don’t believe it. With the help not of Cassidy or of Alistaire or of Memphis, but with Katie Steward…Ace Marshall has defeated Giovanni Aries in the Wonderland Match!”

 

Knots: “I don’t believe it. The Goddess returns to take out Giovanni Aries!”

 

Ace can be seen falling to a knee, covered in blood, before we cut a month later to see Cassidy nailing Giovanni with a series of hard chair shots, knocking him down before we see her helping Ace.

Knots: “Does that count?”

 

Sharper: “Does it matter? Ace Marshall is down. Ace Marshall may never be the same and Giovanni Aries, seething, covered in Ace Marshall’s blood, and standing victorious here at Unflawed!”

 

We then cut to see Giovanni Aries looking at a camera, covered in purple liquid.

 

Giovanni: “All of the lizard minions you set free last week Ace….THEY ARE NO MORE…YOU ensured their destruction….and now I come for you and the Lizard Goddess!”

 

We then cut to see Giovanni Aries choking Ace while inside a steel cage. This is followed by a shot of Ace Marshall pushing Giovanni against the steel before we see Cassidy Carter nail him with a chair against the steel.

Sharper: “Oh my God!”

 

Knots: “Giovanni just killed Ace!”

 

We then cut to Giovanni Aries raking Ace Marshall’s face into the barbed wire the circles the top of the cage. Ace falls back, blooded. We then see Memphis Cade starting to run out from the back before Jason Helms comes out before being held back by Cassidy Carter, holding the ring bell hammer. This is followed by Giovanni hitting a dropkick into the cage, knocking Memphis back and through the Spanish announce table. The crowd roars. This is followed by Giovanni hitting the Through the Rabbit Hole onto Ace.

 

Giovanni drops down and rolls him over and hooks his leg.

 

1!

 

2!

 

3!

 

The crowd roars. The bell sounds.

 

Phillips: “Here is your winner, via pinfall, Giovanni Aries!”

 

Sharper: “Giovanni Aries with the dagger through the heart, sending Ace down the rabbit hole here in Saitama!”

 

Giovanni Aries gets up and looks around smiling.

 

Sharper: “A chapter for both ending tonight. Giovanni Aries standing tall!”

 

The scene fades to black.

 

“The Feud of 2018…Giovanni Aries vs. Ace Marshall.”


The scene opens up backstage to see Katya backstage with a couple of referees, in SCW referee attire. CHBK is with her.

 

Katya: “So you’ve both been highly recommended, working your time on the Canadian independent circuit? Your names?”

 

Ref 1: “Gordon Smith.”

 

Ref 2: “Jennifer Kliment.”

 

Katya: “Pleasure.”

 

Katya turns to CHBK.

 

CHBK: “Look good to me.”

 

Katya: “Good. We’ve gone over your paperwork and as you probably have guess, with the attire you have, we’re giving you a trial tonight. We needed some extra officials on hand for the End of the Year battle royal since Steven Hollinsworth couldn’t be trusted to do his job. Understand what you need to do tonight.”

 

Gordon: “All good.”

 

Jennifer: “Great to have the chance.”

 

Katya: “Good.”

 

Katya smiles and shakes their hand. CHBK extends his hand and does the same.

 

CHBK: “Good luck tonight.”

 

Katya turns and heads off as CHBK head off as the two officials smile and we cut away.


We open up to see LEO with Paris backstage as Paris tries to get up and go out. London stops her.

 

Paris: “I’m not letting that be how this ends!”

 

Laura walks into the room and stops her.

 

Laura: “Paris…it’s over.”

 

LEO: “Yeah…they won.”

 

Paris turns and paces as London looks at her. LEO goes over to comfort Paris before we see Memphis Cade walk into the room.

 

Cade: “Twins…your knight in shining armour has returned!”

 

The crowd roars as London turns and LEO turns to him. Paris turns to him too.

 

Cade: “Come on. Come to daddy. I’ll make sure you forget all about tonight.”

 

Laura: “Memphis…You’ve been outclassed.”

 

Memphis: “Please…by Abercrombie here? Or is it Fitch?”

 

LEO steps forward. Memphis steps back, his arms up. London just looks at Memphis as Memphis backs up.

 

Memphis: “No worries…I’ll let you kick him out. You can tell him the truth. No one measures up to me…”

 

Memphis turns and leaves the room as LEO just turns back to Paris as the scene fades out.


Josh Hudson vs. Justin Davis

No Disqualification, No Countouts

 

The arena goes dark and a mist of smoke begins to gather at the top of the ramp as the opening rift of 'Sail" begins to play throughout the arena. The lights starts to flickers as a spotlight shines on top of the ramp. Justin Davis stands at the top of the ramp with his head lowered and a hood covering his head. Davis lifts his head as he takes his hood off and the words "JUSTIN DAVIS" shows on the titantron. The crowd begins to fill the arena with roaring cheers. You can see a smile on Davis' face while nodding his head as he begins to make his way down the ramp.

 

Phillips: Making his way to the ring from Boston, Massachusetts, and weighing in at two hundred and thirty five pounds, JUSTIN DAAAVVVIIIISSSS!"

 

Davis’ smile quickly fades as he reaches the end of the ramp. He looks at the ring then the crowd before turning around and staring at the entrance stage.

 

Sharper: “This next contest is a grudge match if there ever was one. Davis not getting in the ring. Facing the stage.”

 

“Judas” hits throughout the arena as it becomes filled with cheers. Out from the back steps Josh Hudson. He doesn’t look anywhere else, but straight at Justin Davis. Davis and Hudson glare at one another before both men begin charging towards one another, meeting in the middle of the ramp, exchanging blows as the crowd gets riled up. Davis hits a few left hooks then goes for another but Hudson blocks then hooks Davis and plants him with a spinebuster onto the ramp.

 

Knots: “Neither man clearly waiting for the bell to sound.”

 

Hudson drives a knee into Davis’ chest as he grabs him by the hair and begins raining down punches and elbows. Hudson then gets to his feet and looks down at Davis.

 

Hudson: “You wanted this!”

 

Sharper: “Both men coming to blows with Hudson planting Davis with a spinebuster.”

 

Knots: “What do you think Hudson by shouting that Davis wanted this?”

 

Sharper: “Probably referring to Davis’ list, stating he wanted to end Hudson. He has a second chance in the last few months to do so. This is also his last shot at Hudson as Hudson has announced this to be his last match.”

 

Davis slowly stirs, climbing to his feet. Davis looks at Hudson who motions for him to bring it. Davis charges at Hudson and they begin exchanging blows once again. Davis lands three straight left hooks and goes for a fourth, but Hudson blocks it then quickly goes to whip Davis into the apron but Davis reverses sending Hudson back first into the apron. Davis follows it up with a running clothesline. Davis lands a few elbow strikes before whipping Hudson into the ring steps. Hudson slumps to the concrete floor as Davis digs under the ring and pulls out a table.

 

Sharper: “Looks like Davis is going to take advantage of the no disqualification rule.”

 

Davis sets up the table as Hudson is shown getting to his feet. Hudson charges towards Davis only for Davis to kick him in the abdomen then land a few clubbing blows to the back of Hudson’s head. Davis then lifts Hudson up and drops him through the table with a powerbomb.

 

Knots: “Powerbomb through the table.”

 

Davis grabs Hudson and rolls him into the ring. Davis slides under the bottom rope as the ref calls for the bell.

 

Knots: “And finally the match can officially begin!”

 

Davis gets to his feet as Hudson climbs to one knee. Davis runs and connects with a running knee. Davis rolls out of the ring and grabs a chair from underneath. Davis slides back into the ring and gets to his feet, lifting the chair high above his head. Hudson pushes himself to one knee and Davis charges. Davis goes to hit Hudson with the chair, but Hudson rolls out of the way then hits Davis with a low blow. Davis drops the chair as Hudson hooks him and plants Davis with a release German suplex. Hudson gets to his feet and unfolds the chair then he grabs Davis, lifts him up, and drives him back first into the chair.

 

Sharper: “Hudson with a powerbomb of his own, driving him into the steel chair.”

 

Hudson rolls out of the ring and drags a few tables out of underneath as well as a chair. Hudson slides back into the ring and slams the chair onto Davis’ back, followed by another and another.  Davis rolls over onto his back and Hudson slams the chair into Davis’ legs again and again, but driving it into Davis’ sternum. Hudson lifts the chair up once again and goes to drive it into Davis’ sternum once again, but Davis lands a shot to Hudson’s groin. Hudson drops the chair and Davis reaches up, pulling Hudson into an inside cradle.

Davis grabs Hudson, lifting him up from the mat. Davis begins to land body blows before landing elbows to the head and face, staggering Hudson against the ropes. Davis hits a few more body blows before clotheslining Hudson over the top rope.

 

Davis goes to the outside and sets up another table. Davis grabs Hudson and rolls him onto the table. Davis lands a few punches to Hudson’s face before climbing onto the table, lifting Hudson in the process. Davis then drops Hudson with a DDT through the table.

 

Knots: “Something told me when they brought out tables, they weren’t planning a family dinner.”

 

Davis gets to his feet and grabs Hudson before rolling him into the ring. Davis sets up another table on the outside before sliding another into the ring. Davis gets to the inside and begins landing punches and elbows to Hudson who tries to cover up. Davis then grabs Hudson off of the mat, hooks him, and sends him over the top rope with a suplex. Hudson goes over and lands through the other table Davis set up.

 

Sharper: “Davis sending Hudson through a table with a suplex from inside the ring. Hudson is taking quite a bit of punishment.”

 

Knots: “And Davis is destroying all of our furniture.”

 

Sharper: “I believe all he cares about is destroying Hudson.”

 

Davis rolls out of the ring before rolling Hudson back inside. Davis goes for a pin cover.

Knots: “I mean, who wouldn’t be?”

Knots: “At this point, Davis has to be acting on pure adrenaline.”

 

Sharper: “What more do these men have to do to one another to get the win here tonight?”

 

Hudson looks down at Davis stunned for a few moments. He nods before rolling out of the ring. Hudson is shown digging underneath before emerging with a chain. Hudson gets back into the ring as Davis is finally shown stirring slightly.

 

Sharper: “Davis showing signs of life. But Hudson has that chain. No telling what he has in store.”

 

Hudson stomps Davis in the back of the head. Hudson then wraps the chain around Davis’ face and neck before floating over, locking in the Angle.

 

Knots: “Oh my God!”

 

Sharper: “Hudson with a modified version of his submission maneuver the Angle.”

 

Davis is heard yelling and his arms flail, his hands digging at the chain. Hudson pulls the chain tighter, letting out a roar of his own. The ref checks with Davis. Hudson pulls the chain tighter and tighter. Davis continues to yell as the referee checks on him. Hudson twists the chain, pulling it tighter. Davis yells once more before finally tapping. The ref calls for the bell and the crowd explodes. Hudson lets go of the chain and rolls away from Davis.

 

Sharper: “Hudson does it! Winning his final match!”

 

Hudson gets to his feet and the referee goes to raise his hand but Hudson pulls away. Hudson walks over to Davis who is shown pulling the chain off of his neck and face. Hudson is then shown towering over him.

 

Sharper: “What’s going on here? Does Hudson want to inflict more punishment?”

 

Knots: “He won the war. He doesn’t need to do anything else. There’s nothing left to prove.”

 

Davis turns to see Hudson staring down at him. They glare at one another for a few moments before Hudson extends his hand. The crowd begins to cheer louder as Davis looks out at the crowd then at Hudson.

 

Sharper: “Hudson extending his hand? What a turn of events.”

 

Davis looks down for a few moments before locking eyes with Hudson and grabbing his hand. The crowd cheers even louder as Hudson helps Davis to his feet.

 

Knots: “I predict a low blow or something. Hudson did it to Dillusion.”

 

Hudson then pulls Davis into a hug as the crowd’s reaction becomes deafening. Hudson then lifts Davis’ arm in the air as well. Hudson and Davis stare at one another before Davis gives a nod and climbs out of the ring.

 

Hudson stands in the middle of the ring as the crowd continues to cheer and chant.

 

Crowd: “THANK YOU HUDSON! THANK YOU HUDSON!”

 

Hudson climbs to the top rope and lifts his fists in the air as the crowd continues to cheer. Hudson then gets down and climbs out of the ring before heading to the back.

 

Sharper: “A feud that has lasted for over ten years finally ending tonight with a show of respect. Hudson ends his career with this business, with this sport on a high note.”

 

Hudson faces the crowd once more on the stage before giving a slight nod and heading behind the curtain.


“The SCW End of the Year Awards…Shocking Moment of 2018…”

 

The crowd roars. Cassidy falls forward. Blake turns and looks at the referee, holding up two fingers, but the official calls for the bell. The crowd boos.

 

Phillips: “Here is your winner, via pinfall, Cassidy Carter!”

 

Blake just looks down, disappointed as Ace rolls into the ring. He gets up and embraces Cassidy as she gets up. Just then, we see Katya walking out from the back, with some paperwork. She starts to head to the ring and we then see Syren and CHBK running out from behind her. They run past her and slide into the ring.

 

Sharper: “Cassidy wins! She’s the number one contender-“

 

Knots: “What in the hell are they doing? That’s Katya…with Syren and CHBK?!”

 

Sharper: “I thought she saw better…no…”

 

CHBK and Syren slide in and Syren runs over and dropkicks Cassidy in the back. Cassidy goes into Ace and Ace falls out of the ring. Cassidy gets up to her hands and knees and Syren runs in front of her, bounces off the ropes and grabs her and hits the Total Makeover. The crowd boos loudly as Katya reaches the ring. CHBK kicks at Blake, causing him to roll to the apron. CHBK turns back and grabs the official and moves him to Katya. Katya extends the paperwork.

 

Katya: “This is an official match. I’m sanctioning it. Here’s the paperwork. Ring the bell and count the fall!”

 

The official stalls as Katya snaps at him again.

 

Katya: “Do it!”

 

Syren then rolls Cassidy over and covers her. CHBK grabs the arm of the official and motions for the bell. Katya walks around the ring and snaps at the timekeeper who reluctantly does ring the bell. The referee, Steve Hollinsworth, continues to stall before CHBK points to the fall. We then see Sasha running out from the back.

 

Sharper: “I don’t believe this! Katya…she’s working with them. Trying to get Syren…”

 

Knots: “Is this to get her the number one contender?! What’s on that paperwork?!”

 

She then heads to the ring and notices the situation playing out. Katya continues to snap at the official as Sasha turns and looks stunned. Blake meanwhile gets back up and turns and spins CHBK around. He nails him with a hard right and then another before clotheslining him out of the ring. The crowd cheers. Blake turns as the official then starts to count.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Blake then grabs Syren and pulls her off. Syren tries to fight, but Blake turns and throws her through the ropes by CHBK. Ace reaches in and pulls Cassidy out of the ring. Sasha and Katya are face to face. Blake looks around.

 

Katya: “Can’t just let me do what needs to be done?”

 

Sasha: “What are you talking about?!”

 

Katya then shoves her sister over. She steps over Sasha. She then walks over to the rampway. CHBK and Syren get up and CHBK looks at Katya. Katya just nods. She then points to Syren.

 

Katya: “She’s the number one contender. She is. Not her.”

 

Katya then points to Cassidy as Sasha turns and looks at her. Blake then steps up before turning and exiting the ring. He goes to check on Sasha as CHBK, Syren and Katya head to the back. Katya keeps pointing to Syren. Syren just smiles.

 

Syren: “I like this new decision making. I had her beat!”

 

Syren extends her arms as the crowd boos loudly.

 

Sharper: “I don’t believe it…I don’t believe what we just saw.”

 

Knots: “That was the most transparent amount of BS I’ve seen in a long time.”

 

Sharper: “And Mr. D’s own youngest daughter, who he thought he had a better relationship with….she was in on this for…for how long?”

 

Knots: “And what else did she influence?”

 

The crowd continues to boo them as Blake helps Sasha up. Sasha looks at Blake as Sasha then turns to the entrance way. Ace helps Cassidy around the other side of the ring. The scene cuts to the following Breakdown where Katya, Syren, Ravyn Taylor, CHBK and Alexander Crowe stand in the ring.

 

Katya: “You may be wondering about what this all looks like. Well, it’s simple. Tonight, it’s a correction. Actually, Bound by Blood was supposed to be the correction, but we’ll get to that in a moment. See, several months ago, my father listened to a very good idea. One that I happened to share and someone else gave to me…to give those who deserved their shots their rightful opportunities. And that began with Alistaire Allocco. Alexis Quinne had a good moment too. They were former World Champions and they received a rematch for those titles. Months overdue. There was one very big mistake though….”

 

Katya turns and looks at Syren.

 

Katya: “Syren. Arguably the greatest wrestler in SCW today.”

 

The crowd boos.

 

Sharper: “Give me a break. I’d have bought that argument last year. Right now, she’d have to actually compete regularly, not dodge her matches!”

 

Katya: “Even with the champion agreed to the match, no title match. Well, Bound by Blood was to fix that. It didn’t happen. Instead, I will just have to do this.”

 

Katya then holds up the contract in her hand.

 

Katya: “This is an official, notarized SCW Contract. It is for a World Championship shot. Ironically, at the first pay per view of 2019, SCW Making Things Right. Syren…it is yours.”

 

The crowd boos loudly as Katya turns and extends the contract to Syren. Syren takes it and looks at it, admiring it.

 

Sharper: “How does she have the ability to get that?”

 

Knots: “How was she doing anything at Bound by Blood? Then again, even Steve Hollinsworth, the official for Cassidy Carter versus Blake Mason didn’t know what to do.”

 

Katya: “Sorry, dad. But while I can understand that you can be upset about this. I’m just doing what you always claimed SCW to be about…opportunity and I’m righting this for you. I’ve been trying to get you to understand this for six months. You’re stubborn. I always knew that. But I was not going to let you hurt my inheritance just because you made things personal.”

 

Sharper: “Her inheritance?!”

 

Knots: “Meanwhile where is he? He’s not in Little Rock as far as we’ve heard.”

 

Sharper: “We were supposed to open up in Toronto. So there’s a lot we don’t know right now!”

 

The crowd boos as Katya pauses.

 

Katya: “Now, for those wondering, tonight, I will be calling the shots. My father. He’s not in Little Rock. Sorry. My sister…she was supposed to be. But travel can be finicky. And so everyone better understand that I will be making some long-necessary decisions.”

 

The scene fades to black.

 

“The Shocking Moment of 2018…Katya takes over.”


We cut back to the stage and we see Shawn Winters now with two bottles of Sleeman beer in front of him and he’s holding onto the podium, presumably to keep himself upright.

 

Shawn: “Okay, well we got another award and we just saw the shocking moment of the year. And good to know that no one else tried to screw with Mr. D or he’s not gone again…Oh what?”

 

Shawn takes a swig of one of his beers as some in the crowd cheer.

 

Shawn: “So now we got the Tag Team of the Year…and uh…itsh well been a big year for Tag Teams. A lotta champs. And well, let’s fine out who…”

 

Shawn turns and grabs the envelope. He tries to get it open, but struggles before shrugging and grabbing the envelope and biting the top of it and ripping it off. He then spits out the paper and pulls the card out from inside. He looks at it.

 

Shawn: “Your 2018 Tag Team OF the YEAR!....Redemption!”

 

The crowd roars as “Alive” by POD plays. A few moments pass as Shawn Winters grabs his beers and turns to the entrance as Angelica Jones steps out first and James Evans right behind, both holding their SCW World Tag Team Championship belts. Winters hands Angelica one of his two beers and clings the neck of it with his. He then pats James on the back as Angelica looks at James and then Shawn. Shawn heads to the back. Angelica and James head over to the podium as the crowd roars. Angelica looks at James and extends the beer. James waves it off. Angelica shrugs and takes a swig. She looks at it. James smirks as he grabs his award. Angelica grabs hers.

 

James: “Well, uh…”

 

Angelica: “Hey, I got a beer out of this too. This award is bitchin’.”

 

James: “That’s one way to look at it. Just surprised that I’m standing here. After needing to prove myself to stand here, not only as Tag Team Champions, but as Tag Team of the Year, with all of the other great teams that competed in SCW this year…I gotta say it feels good. It feels like I’ve done something right. And I just hope it sticks.”

 

Angelica: “It’s also odd that I never won this title with my sister even though we’ve put our time and sweat into that and tonight, I stand with James Evans, as both of us look to do something special and different…Let’s hope it’s not the last time we’re standing here holding this award and as for these titles…”

 

Angelica smirks.

 

Angelica: “Whoever is next, bring your best.”

 

Angelica steps back and takes another swig of beer as the crowd cheers. “Alive” by POD plays as James holds his award up. He turns and heads to the back as Angelica takes hers and heads off with the beer as well.


End of the Year Open Invitational

 

We cut to the floor where we see Jessica Winters standing next to a 2019 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1.

 

Jessica: “Well Shawn, good to see you’re as professional as ever and congratulations again to the team of Redemption. We’re going to be congratulating another individual shortly as you see me here, standing next to part of this year’s prize, the brand new 2019 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1. A car worth over $125 000 US. And that is on top of the winner’s purse, the quarter of a million dollars.”

 

Jessica turns to the car.

 

Jessica: “A big prize. Some entrants have been publicly mentioning that they’ll donate the winnings to charity. Some will obviously use it to help themselves. Jon, I think I have a hint of what you’d do, and Adam, well, enjoy calling the action of this one.”

 

We cut to ringside to the announce table to see Jonathan Knots and Adam Sharper.

 

Knots: “Well of course. I’d give it to Kennie!”

 

Sharper: “As was likely. Now, ladies and gentlemen, it’s the yearly tradition. It’s an open invitational. Anyone can enter. And the rules are simple.”

 

A graphic comes up on the screen showing the rules.

 

Sharper: “Everyone starts out in the ring at the same time. Everyone will compete at the same time. The action will be all over. All over the building. As we saw, already a couple of new officials brought in to replace Steve Hollinsworth, fired by Katya a few weeks ago.”

 

Knots: “Yeah, well…this is a big moment. They better be ready.”

 

Sharper: “Of course, eliminations are by pinfall or submission. It’s one of the most gruelling matches on the schedule.”

 

Knots: “Add that you don’t know who will be in it. All we know is that there are twenty-four entrants this year. I heard even Santa Claus is in it!”

 

Sharper: “Could be. Last year, we had the White Rabbit!”

 

The bell sounds.

 

Phillips: “The following contest is the End of the Year Open Invitational!”

 

The crowd roars. The opening beats to Southpaw Swagger's “It's Showtime” kicks in over the speaker system, the fans jumping to their feet in acknowledgment of who is about to step out onto the stage. A huge roar greets Owen Cruze as he steps out onto the stage, a massive grin on his face

Phillips: “First, he is Owen Cruze!”

"It's Showtime!"

He brings his arms out to his side, nodding his head. His arms shaking he brings them in, crossing them across his chest

"It's Showtime!"

He drops to one knee and punches the stage, as a huge burst of pyro erupts behind him. Owen getting to his feet and walking to the ring.

Sharper: “Owen Cruze, named the rookie of 2018 earlier tonight. Now he’s looking to end of the year with a big win and a statement win.”

 

Knots: “Yeah and he’s been saying he’ll give up the money to charity. Good on the kid, but he’s young. Keep it in case stuff goes awry!”

 

The entire arena turns into a crimson red color as "Crimson Bow & Arrow" by Epica begins to play. The crowd boos loudly as Anastasia Ivanova and her partner in crime Karina Lysenko step out onto the stage. Both are dressed for action and both have sadistic grins on their faces as they ponder what is about to go down.

 

Phillips: “Next, they are Anastasia Ivanova and Karina Lysenko!”

 

Ivanova playfully and somewhat maniacally skips down to the ring almost like a child while Karina walks with a somewhat more determined stride, not taking her eyes off the ring.

 

Knots: “Here are two smart people. Come in as a team. You can fight as a team. Worry about what to do at the end!”

 

 “Loser” by Beck blares through the sound system. Out from the back steps Mitch Sanders. He doesn’t look at the crowd.

 

Phillips: “Next, he is Mitch Sanders!”

 

He just focuses on the ring as he heads down.

 

Knots: “Oh God.”

 

Sharper: “Mitch Sanders entering again.”

 

Knots: “Got to admire his will to get his ass kicked.”

 

The iconic opening of “Sirius” by The Alan Parsons Project begins to pump out over the PA system as a small display of laser lights creates the ring on the dimmed stage where, after a few moments, we see a figure walk into the center, hands rubbing together in anticipation.

 

Phillips: “Next, she is Lane Forte!”

 

As the lights come back on, the pumped look of Lane Forte greets the fans as she begins jogging down the ramp, ready for the battle ahead.

 

Sharper: “Liane Forte, Aaron Blackbourne’s girlfriend, will be watching from the back as her sister competes.”

 

Knots: “Who knew. Had an itch and a desire to wrestling. Looks like the whole family may be starting to get involved.”

 

“X-Men” by Powerglove plays as the crowd roars as we hear a loud crash before MONGO runs out from the back and looks around before turning and running down to the ring.

 

Phillips: “Next! He is MONGO!”

 

He runs almost right into the camera as he heads to the ring.

 

Knots: “Damn it! We didn’t MONGO-proof ringside!”

 

The lights go down and flash red and purple as "Dark Horse" by Katy Perry starts. Jordan steps out as the beat drops with a long, floor-length jacket on and looks out at the crowd.

 

Phillips: “She is Jordan Majors!”

 

She bobs her head with the music for a moment before the lights slowly fade back to normal and she makes her way to the ring.

 

Sharper: “A new signing for SCW. Looking to get started earlier and a lot of buzz around this one. Jordan Majors making her debut here tonight.”

 

Knots: “And could put everyone on notice really quick!”

 

“Supreme” plays throughout the arena as the stage and video screen goes dark. Gigi Steward’s video plays on the screen and she steps out on to the stage wearing a black leather with tiny metal spikes on it and also a bandana covering her face. Maddy Steward walks out with her wearing a rabbit mask and looking around. They look out at the crowd.

 

Phillips: “Next, they are Maddy Steward and Gigi Steward!”

 

The two then start to head to the ring.

 

Sharper: “Another team. Gigi and Maddy. Always looking to do well. Been fixtures in this match.”

 

Knots: “Yeah and gives some people with a side in the family war too in this.”

 

The opening chords of “Look What You Made Me Do” by Taylor Swift 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.

 

Phillips: “Next, she is Kimberly Williams!”

 

She winks at the fans before pointing towards the ring and making a beeline towards it. 

 

Sharper: “And the music a bit confusing. A version has been used by Sam Raine I believe. Kim Williams could just be messing with people.”

 

Knots: “Well she’s here for this. Hopefully that mean she’s not an option to get involved to help Marie Jones later.”

 

Sharper: “We don’t even know if that’s an option!”

 

The arena lights dim down as the name "Asher Hayes" appears on the screen before kicking into "Straight Out of Line" by Godsmack. As the arena lights return to normal, Asher appears on the stage.

 

Phillips: “Next entrant…he is Asher Hayes!”

 

He makes his way down the ramp as the jeers of the crowd rain down upon him.

 

Sharper: “We haven’t seen Asher Hayes in a long time. Over a year and a half. We figured his health issues were too much. Great to see him back.”

 

Knots: “He doesn’t look happy to be here though.”

 

“Cold as Ice” by M.O.P plays over the sound system. Konrad comes out through the curtain. He looks around the arena as they cheer.

Phillips: “He is The Iceman, Konrad Raab!”

He heads down to the ring and high-fives a few fans.

 

Sharper: “Konrad Raab talked to me earlier. He said he wanted to do this as a challenge. Never saw himself as a good fit for battle royal wrestling.”

 

Knots: “He’s jumping into the deep end tonight.”

 

The lights to the arena cut completely and an eerie silence fills the room before candles light as if by magic down either side of the ramp, starting from the top all the way to the ring. “The Howling” by Within Temptation begins to play. A robed Sourial Slytherin steps out onto the stage and walks to the top of the ramp, throwing his arms out as smoke puffs from either side of the stage before he throws back the hood of his robe and begins to walk down the ramp. 

 

Announcer: “Next, he is Sourial Slytherin!”

 

The camera follows him down to the ring as he looks at the ring.

 

Sharper: “A unique individual.”

 

Knots: “Unique. I heard the guy has a history of hating on Harry Potter or Gandalf or Hobbits. Or something.”

 

Sharper: “The first option was right. An eclectic individual, but very dangerous in the ring.”

 

“Kickstart my Heart” by Motley Crue plays as we see a masked man run out onto the stage, fully covered in a bodysuit. He jumps up and then throws his arms up as he looks around.

 

Phillips: “Next…he is Kiken’na!”

 

The man looks around and listens to the crowd for a moment as a few cheer. He then runs down to the ring.

 

Sharper: “A mystery entrant. I don’t know much about him.”

 

Knots: “So he’s in witness protection.”

 

Sharper: “May be! I don’t know!”

 

Knots: “If you can’t find him, he probably is.”

 

“Nymphetamine (Deva-Fix)” begins to play, and once the guitars kick in the lights dim just enough for red and white lights to stand out as Scarlet Grey and Ruby Amarant sway across the stage. Ruby Amarant is notably on crutches. The crowd boos.

 

Phillips: “Next, accompanied by Ruby Amarant, she is Scarlet Grey!”

 

Grey has a smirk on her lips as she purposely sways her hips, drawing the gaze of every fan in the arena as they are entranced by the mere sight of her walking down the ramp.

 

Sharper: “After how Breakdown ended for them, with Aaron Blackbourne and Liane Forte winning, Scarlet may be smirking, but I assume there’s a lot of anger.”

 

Knots: “We saw some of it. She snapped halfway. She grabbed that gauntlet that she wears on her entrance…She’s not all there.”

 

Familiar music plays and the stage lights flash as Marcus V. Lopez walks out onto the stage with his sister, Mariela. Marcus is wearing his ring gear of black and white tights and matching coat.

 

Phillips: “Accompanied by Mariela, he is Marcus V. Lopez!”

 

He also wears a black and white bear mask on his head untied. He and Mariela pose on the stage before he takes off the mask and tosses it up and behind him. They walk to the ring together for the match.

 

Knots: “Oh no…”

 

Sharper: “MV is here!”

 

Sexually Addictive.Charismatically Gifted

The lyrics of "Lollipop" by Framing Hanley begins to ring out to a chorus of boos from the SCW fans as light blue pyros shoot up in the air. A few moments pass as the song plays then. Memphis Cade slowly strolls out on the stage and does a crucifix pose with his head down. He then quickly jerks his head up as he has a smug smirk on his face and takes in the boos as he chuckles to himself a bit.

 

Phillips: “Next, Memphis Cade!”

 

He makes his way down toward the ring.

 

Sharper: “Memphis Cade, we saw him backstage trying to comfort the Truelove Twins. He’s now trying to win some money and a car.”

 

Knots: “And who knows what else!”

The opening bass of "Baby Got Back" begins and Kandis steps out from the curtain, a sway in her step. The music cuts to a remixed version of the chorus, with added bass, and Kandis turns around to wiggle her bountiful rear end. Some of the males in the crowd cheer as Kandis turns back and starts down the ramp.

 

Phillips: “Kandis!”

 

When Kandis gets to the ring steps, the line skips in the remix:

"My anaconda don't-- my anaconda don't-- my anaconda don't want none unless you got buns, hon!"

Kandis shakes her hips in time to the words, then steps through the ropes and slaps her ass right at the whip sound. The bass line continues as Kandis bounces on her feet a little, shaking all of her assets.

 

Sharper: “Kandis debuted last year at this event and she’s back and it seems like this a permanent situation.”

 

Knots: “Things just got bigger and better around here!”

 

What sounds like “All Around the Stars” by Mercy Drive, although completely backwards, starts to play. We then see Banvel step out from the back and looking stern.

 

Phillips: “Banvel!”

 

We cut to the ring as we see Kandis walking over to Memphis Cade and the two of them talking as Scarlet Grey watches them. We see Asher Hayes pacing a bit as Mitch looks around.

 

Sharper: “Banvel…not Manvel. This is someone completely unrelated.”

 

Knots: “But he’s going to drop the ban hammer! Whatever the hell that is!”

 

“The Encounter” by Yoko Shimomura begins to play as the Tron shows the King of Hearts playing card, then after a moment an X is sliced into it corner-to-corner, causing the card to fall to pieces. From here, clips of the now-Heartless Rupert Adell begin to play as the man himself marches out onto the stage, a look of determined anger in his eyes as he carries the bloodstained ION World Championship along in his right hand.

 

Phillips: “Heartless Rupert Adell!”

 

He pauses on the stage to take a look at it, reminding himself of where he once was and where he wants to be again, before he storms down the ramp.

 

Sharper: “Rupert Adell. A man who is known for the skill in the ring and that bloodstained belt is a symbol of what he is capable of.”

 

Knots: “Well this is SCW.”

 

Sharper: “And that title doesn’t exist anymore. It’s done. As is the promotion. He’s now here. Whether just for tonight or maybe longer. Who knows.

 

The lights around the arena begin to flicker as "Whoa Is Me" by Down With Webster starts to play over the arena. Kandis turns to the entrance and glares. Memphis leans over to her a bit. The crowd boos as "All Star" Gavin Taylor steps out from behind the curtain onto the top of the ramp. As he stands in place, posing with his arms outstretched, the chorus of the song plays.

 

Phillips: “Next, he is Gavin Taylor!”

Gavin begins to walk down the ramp with swagger. He smirks as he gets to the ring.

 

Knots: “Looking to add some starpower in this!”

 

Sharper: “And Kandis and Taylor have a history in EMERGE. Kandis not happy as you can tell.”

 

Knots: “Memphis is interested though.”

 

“Jingle Bells” starts to play as we see Santa Claus walk out from the back, with a sack over his shoulder. He looks around and gives out a jolly ho-ho-ho before starting to the head to the ring.

 

Phillips: “Santa Claus!”

 

The camera follows Santa down to the ring.

 

Knots: “Santa!”

 

Sharper: “Santa Claus is in this. Guess he needs to make some money.”

 

Knots: “Probably the Corvette is more comfortable than his sleigh too!”

 

The lights dim as a voice backed by piano music fill the arena.

{That's the price you pay.... Leave behind your heartache, cast away
Just another product of today.... Rather be the hunter than the prey
And you're standing on the edge, face up... 'cause you're a NATURAL}

As the heavy music of Imagine Dragons kicks in the lights come back up and we see a shot of a what appears to be a mannequin, wearing Bree Lancaster’s wrestling attire, or something similar, with a print out face over the mannequin’s face. A couple of ring crew members start to slowly roll it down to the ring on the platform its on. The camera turns to show a giant present tag that says “From Jason Helms! Ho Ho Hooooooo!”

 

Phillips: “Next…yes, it’s an entrant…The Barbree!”

 

Knots: “Jason Helms is my spirit animal!”

 

Sharper: “Bree Lancaster has to be livid. Jason Helms at home still recovering from his injury and still having fun at her expense!”

 

The Barbree is moved a bit closer to the ring, stopping at the ringside area. All of a sudden, the lights go out, prompting a surprised pop from the fans. After a moment, what sounds like the frigid cold winds of a howling blizzard begins to make itself known through the sound system, accompanied by what sounds like the occasional low growl of some creature that is definitely not human. A heavy cloud of smoke has overtaken the stage at this point as silver and light blue lights illuminate it all, matching the feeling in the air that things have started getting a lot colder in here. On the Tron, we see a nasty blizzard to match the sound we're getting, though a shadowy figure cloaked like the reaper himself seems to be trying to make their way through it. After a few moments the figure raises what looks like a handmade of ice and bone and pulls back the hood, and in an instant a demonic wolf-like howl erupts through everyone's senses.

As the howl begins to die down, the sound is overtaken by the long lost haunting sounds of “10 Inch Nails” by Audiomachine, albeit slightly modified so the roaring blizzard can still be heard right along with it, adding to the distorted vibe. Through the smoke, we see a figure crawling along, almost in rhythm with the pounding music. As he reaches the edge of the stage, he slowly rises from the smoke and reveals himself as the one and only Aaron Blackbourne, returning to his roots to some degree exactly one year to the date of his SCW debut. His tights, knee pads, arm sleeves and wrestling boots with kick pads are all a dark blue in color this time, and not only do they have silver claw marks designed into them there's also signs of ice around the edges as well. As usual with him, his body is painted to mesh with his creative desires for the evening: his body looking it it's been transformed into a terrifying mix of a frozen skeleton and a wicked ice sculpture come to life, with the fierce howling head of a frozen wolf painted onto his back before the frozen tundra where this creature may hunt.

Phillips: “Finally, he is Aaron Blackbourne!”


Almost in an homage to last year's invitational, the demonic-looking Blackbourne slowly and erratically makes his way down the ramp, almost like a zombie that's taking in the shock and awe of the fans around him with silent delight. When he reaches ringside he squats down and takes a moment to glare around ringside before it settles on those already in the ring. In the blink of an eye, he suddenly leaps onto the apron and quickly climbs so that he’s got one foot on the top turnbuckle, arms raised an outstretched as he rears his head back and lets out a wolf howl of his own, white spotlights suddenly coming on and converging on him in this moment. Scarlet Grey can be seen glaring at him. Memphis Cade also notices this. Blackbourne carefully climbs down into the ring as the lights return to normal, crouching down along the ropes and even crawling a bit on all fours to keep some space between himself and the wide array of competitors at the moment, knowing that soon the creature known as Kaldr would be unleashed for them to contend with.

 

Sharper: “The look of death from Scarlet Grey to Aaron Blackbourne as he returns to his roots, a demon unleashed, a symbol of his creativity. The Kaldr, the creature of ice and cold.”

 

Knots: “Maybe like Scarlet’s heart now.”

 

Sharper: “Maybe. Add Lane Forte. Blackbourne’s return to what he hopes is normalcy may not be welcomed.”

 

The bell sounds. Kandis who is draped over Memphis tells him to go and Memphis obliges, running over and catching Gavin Taylor with a hard right hand, knocking him down. Kandis smiles as Memphis then turns and goes to run to nail Aaron Blackbourne as Scarlet smiles. Blackbourne ducks it and Memphis stops at the ropes. Blackbourne jumps up and hits a dropkick, knocking Memphis up and over the top rope. Scarlet goes to go for Blackbourne, but she’s speared back by Lane Forte, into the corner. Kandis meanwhile turns and runs over to Gavin and climbs onto him, nailing him with repeated shots. MONGO meanwhile drops to the floor, runs around the ring and goes to the Barbree and drills it with a vicious, reckless clothesline, causing the head to pop off and the mannequin to collapse into a heap for several pieces.

 

Sharper: “Memphis Cade hoping to impress two women, he’s on the floor.”

 

Knots: “The Barbree is down! The Barbree is down!”

 

Sharper: “MONGO taking her out and look! Mitch Sanders picking up the pieces!”

 

Mitch Sanders dives onto the pile of Barbree, covering it.

 

1!

 

2!

The crowd roars.

 

Phillips: “Barbree has been eliminated.”

 

Gigi and Maddy run after MONGO as he stops at the stage and Gigi kicks MONGO in the ribs and Maddy does too. MONGO goes for a clubbing blow to Maddy, dropping her before swinging wildly at Gigi and missing. She kicks him in the ribs and jumps up and hits the Nirvana on the steel. The crowd roars and Gigi goes for the pin. Aaron Demitra counts the fall.

The crowd roars a bit as back in the ring, we see Heartless going after Raab.

 

Phillips: “MONGO has been eliminated!”

 

Kiken’na battles with Slytherin as Banvel watches the action. MV tries to fight with Ana and Karina, but Ana kicks him in the ribs and Karina hits a jumping up and locking in a guillotine choke. Scarlet covers up as Lane goes after her. Santa starts to look in his bag as Mitch gets up and looks around. Memphis starts to get up and Mitch clubs him in the back. Asher nails Owen with a hard right on the floor as Majors walks over and grabs Kim Williams and throws her into the barricade. She smirks and turns and knees Majors in the ribs. Majors and Kim trade blows as Santa pulls out a baking sheet and throws it into the ring. He then throws a ring of bells and starts to shake them.

 

Sharper: “Kandis still working on Gavin.”

 

Knots: “Santa’s giving out gifts. One’s in the ring and here comes another! Hey Mitch! Merry Christmas!”

 

Santa walks over to Mitch as Mitch looks up and nails him in the face with the Christmas bells. Mitch hits the mats. Memphis stumbles up and Santa nails him with a hard shot with the bells. He turns and looks around before going and nailing Gigi and Maddy as they head back down. Santa looks around and throws his arms up yelling “Ho ho ho!” Mitch is half out of it and we see Kim get free of Majors and then runs over and hits a running kick to the side of Mitch’s head. She goes for the pin.

 

1!

 

2!

 

3!

 

Phillips: “Mitch Sanders has been eliminated!”

 

In the ring, Kandis turns around and sees the baking sheet and shrugs before grabbing it. She then turns and goes over to Gavin, but Banvel sees his moment, sliding into the ring. Kandis looks at him and just smiles, walking over to seduce him, but immediately, Banvel just grabs her arm and takes her down with an armbar takedown. He lets go and turns as Lane runs at him and Banvel takes him down. The crowd roars again and Gavin staggers up and turns and goes to nail Banvel, but Banvel takes him down with a Banbar too! He then starts to pull back, but Ruby hands Scarlett one of her crutches and she immediately turns and nails Banvel in the head with the crutch. The crowd ohs. Scarlet goes for the pin. One of the new officials makes the count.

The crowd boos as Scarlet rolls over and immediately goes for a pin on Gavin.

Gavin kicks out in time.

 

Phillips: “Banvel has been eliminated!”

 

Sharper: “Wait a minute. Those were awful quick counts. These new officials…”

 

Knots: “Maybe they’re nervous. I doubt that. But right now…”

 

Sharper: “We’ll have to keep watching that.”

 

Scarlet turns and then rolls back before smiling at Gavin as he gets up. Blackbourne meanwhile is over by Santa and nails him with a knee to the ribs. He then turns and snapmares him over before rolling forward and turning and hitting a straight kick to Santa’s face. Santa rolls over. Blackbourne then turns around as we see Heartless run over and nail him with a vicious clothesline. Blackbourne hits down with a thud. Konrad Raab is seen starting to get up on the floor as Scarlet leans in to Gavin before whispering something to him. Gavin then points to Kandis who is getting up and Scarlet just nods before turning back to Kandis holding the broken crutch. Gavin smiles as he turns and rolls to the floor. He runs around and watches Heartless as he just moves on to Asher and nails him with a hard right and then a kick to the ribs. Gavin then runs over and stomps away on Blackbourne. Karina and Ana meanwhile walk around and go over to Gigi and Maddy and start to hammer away on them. Scarlet meanwhile ignores Kandis entirely and nails Lane Forte with the crutch, knocking her back down.

 

Sharper: “Scarlet got Gavin to go after Blackbourne. But Scarlet didn’t hold up her end.”

 

Knots: “Kandis was right there. Guess she was threatened by dat ass.”

 

Sharper: “I don’t know, but she made sure to give a good shot to Lane Forte.”

 

Ana grabs Gigi, but Gigi nails her in the ribs with a hard right and then another before Karina throws Maddy into Gigi. Gigi falls over. Ana then lifts Maddy up and hits a back suplex on the rampway. The crowd ohs. Memphis starts to get up as Santa stirs. Owen suddenly is shown jumping to the apron and then twisting into a flip dive onto Kiken’na. Slytherin meanwhile grabs Majors and rolls her into the ring. He slides in after, but Majors hits him with a kick to the ribs. He winces and falls to the middle rope before she turns and hits a vicious kick to the side of the head. Slytherin falls back to the floor. Konrad nails Memphis with a shot as Heartless throws Asher hard into the barricade. Kim meanwhile can be seen starting to go through Santa’s sack as Santa stirs and MV slides into the ring. She goes over to Kandis and clubs her in the back and then again.

 

Sharper: “MV in and has Kandis in a bad way!”

 

Knots: “Does the idiot know its banned?!”

 

MV looks around.

 

MV: “Bonjour!”

 

Kandis however suddenly drops down and low blows him. The crowd ohs and boos. MV staggers back and falls to a knee. Scarlet meanwhile nails Owen with a shot as Kandis gets up and runs into the ropes. She bounces off and hits a jumping hipcheck to the jaw of MV, knocking him down. Back on the stage, Ana and Karina grab Gigi and start to lift her up. They then shrug and go to throw Gigi off, but Gigi elbows Ana in the ribs and then nails Karina with a shot. Karina staggers back before Maddy hits a DDT. She goes for the pin.

Ana breaks it up. We then cut back to see Gigi club Ana in the back. Santa crawls up the rampway as Kim walks over to Santa with the sack.

 

Kim: “What the hell is this? There’s nothing in here I wanted!”

 

Kim then lifts the sack up and slams it into the back of Santa, knocking him back down to the ramp. He rolls over as Kim sits on the sack and smiles.

 

1!

Phillips: “Santa Claus has been eliminated!”

 

The crowd boos a bit as Kim looks around and shrugs. She then lifts up the sack and turns to Memphis who staggers over, fighting with Konrad. Kim looks down.

 

Kim: “Ha! My sack is bigger than yours!”

 

Memphis’ eyes widen and turns around and Konrad hits a European uppercut. Memphis hits the ground. Kim shrugs and then turns and swings the sack into Konrad’s face. Konrad hits the mat. Kandis turns and is caught by Lane Forte who is back up and nails her with a hard forearm and then another. Scarlet meanwhile continues to fight Owen on the floor as Slytherin starts to stir. Majors has since taken over on MV as MV stirs, holding himself and Jordan shakes her head. MV then gets up and holds his hands up and goes to fight and goes for a hard right, but Majors ducks and jumps up and hits the Lights Out. The crowd ohs and MV falls back. Majors goes for the pin.

Phillips: “MV has been eliminated!”

 

Mariela looks on disappointed.

 

Sharper: “MV’s hopes dashed by the newcomer who showed just how quick she can put you down.”

 

Knots: “Didn’t even hesitate and got it perfectly!”

 

Sharper: “Meanwhile, we finally have a dual screen here. We can try and follow more of the action.”

 

On the stage, Gigi grabs Ana and throws her into the entrance set. The crowd roars. Ana stumbles back. Gigi then turns and kicks Karina in the ribs. Gigi nails her with another shot as Maddy starts to get up. She then knees Karina in the ribs and hooks her up. Karina however spins out of it and steps forward and hits a neckbreaker, taking Gigi down. The crowd ohs. Gigi rolls over in pain. Ana then runs over and hits a running elbow drop.

Scarlet drives Owen in the barricade before walking away. Slytherin stirs as Kiken’na grabs at the announce table. He’s pushed away by Heartless who drives Asher into the announce table. He falls onto it before falling back to the mats. On the other side we see Kimberly Williams nailing Gavin with Santa’s sack to the face. Gavin hits the mats. Kim nails him again. She then turns and smiles to Aaron as Aaron grabs at the ring apron. Kim skips around the ring with the sack as Memphis rolls into the ring, wincing in pain. Konrad turns and notices the scene on the stage.

 

 

Phillips: “Gigi Steward has been eliminated!”

 

Sharper: “What the hell? That was a damned fast count and by another one of those newly assigned referees.”

 

Knots: “And this is a bit more obvious! Gigi is clearly with Sasha!”

 

Sharper: “I think there’s something afoot here.”

 

Karina then grabs Maddy as Ana heads over and kicks her too. Konrad heads up toward them with another official following. Konrad then heads over and grabs Karina and pulls her off of Maddy. Maddy covers up as Ana turns and goes to nail Konrad, but Konrad catches her arm and swats it down before hitting her with a back elbow. The crowd roars. Konrad then spins around Karina and takes her down with a Frozen Pin on the top of the stage. The crowd ohs and the second official counts.

The first official watches as Maddy rolls over and Ana looks at Konrad before nailing him with a straight kick to the jaw, knocking her down.

Memphis looks up and immediately gets a boot to the face from Jordan Majors who smirks. Scarlet starts to now help Gavin Taylor up as he winces in pain. Kim meanwhile swings her sack and nails Heartless in the back. Heartless falls to the announce table, but looks out. Kim just looks at him again and swings it again. Heartless absorbs it and falls to a knee before getting up. She then rears back and goes to swing again, but Heartless grabs her by the throat. He then throws her into the ring ropes. She bounces off and Heartless catches her and spins her down into the mats. As she does, we see Kiken’na jump to the apron and dive off with a tornado DDT, finally taking Heartless off his feet. The crowd roars. Kiken’na stirs as Owen rolls into the ring. Scarlet meanwhile keeps flirting with Gavin before turning and drop toe holding him into the steel steps .She looks into the ring and smiles at Kandis who looks over and nods.

 

Phillips: “Karina Lysenko has been eliminated!”

 

Sharper: “Konrad managing to at least get another official up there. One of the two Russian women have been eliminated.”

 

Knots: “As insanity is happening in front of us!”

 

Sharper: “Rupert Adell finally taken down by Kiken’na. First time he’s been off his feet.”

 

Knots: “And he got teabagged twice!”

 

Konrad rolls over and Ana turns and Maddy suddenly rolls her up. The second official counts.

A shot of an overhead shot of a beautiful beach is seen as we then cut to see shots of the blue ocean and palm trees.

 

“London…”

 

We then see a shot of London Truelove posing underneath a palm tree in a bikini, leaning back.

 

“Paris…”

 

A shot of Paris Truelove is then shown in a soccer themed shoot, kicking a ball into the distance while on the beach.

 

“Jennifer…”

 

We see a shot of Jennifer Helms leaning on a railing, looking right at the camera.

 

“Willow…”

 

Willow Wilkes is then seen walking toward the camera, biting on her finger.

 

“Spirit”

 

Spirit Dansby, surprisingly, is also included, as she can be seen leaning in the water, wearing a swimsuit while posing.

 

“Sienna…”

 

Sienna Swann is shown leaning on the beach, seemingly wearing only bottoms, as she looks seductively at the camera. Shots of all of the Twins, Jennifer, Willow, Spirit and Sienna flash on the screen as they pose in various poses on the beach.

 

“This Fantasy will never be your reality…but you can at least dream…”

 

We then cut back to the wide shot of the beach as a camera films overhead.

 

“The Beauty Factory presents their Swim Special…Only on Youtube Red.”

 

We cut to see Sienna Swann winking at the camera as we cut to black.


Backstage, Marie Jones is seen in her wrestling gear. She stretches out a bit and turns as we see Syren and Ravyn standing next to her. Marie turns to them.

 

Syren: “So are you ready?”

 

Marie: “Of course. Been waiting for this all year.”

 

Syren: “Good. As much as I may want to knock Sienna down from her personal mountain, I’d rather fight someone who frankly is more of a champion than she ever could dream of.”

 

Ravyn: “But…Not to suggest this holds any doubt….but if you feel that for whatever reason she gains some advantage and your victory is in doubt, unlike other people who make deals for title shots that are never granted…we’ll agree to one right now. Make it so Sienna Swann will regret her title reign one way or another by the end of the night, by winning the title or well…something else…”

 

Syren: “I’ll happily give you a rematch when I win the title.”

 

Syren extends her hand. Marie looks at it and smiles. She then shakes it as the crowd boos. The scene then fades out.



We cut back to the entrance way and the crowd boos as we see Spirit Dansby walking out from the back. She heads to the podium.

 

Spirit: “Well, there’s been a bit of a change here and well, I guess I’ll be handing out the final couple of awards for the evening.”

 

Spirit pauses.

 

Spirit: “First up, we have the Female of the Year award.”

 

Spirit turns and grabs the envelope. Business-like, especially compared to Shawn, she opens up the envelope. She slides the card out.

 

Spirit: “Also, representing your Stable of the Year, Past, Present, Future, your female of 2018…Sienna Swann!”

 

The crowd roars and boos as “Style” starts to play. The crowd boos more as Spirit turns and smiles, applauding before Laura Steinbeck walks out from the back. She looks out at Spirit and smiles before reaching out and shaking her hand. She then turns and grabs the two awards and looks at them. Laura turns to the microphone on the podium as the music fades out.

 

Steinbeck: “Ladies and gentlemen, I hope you can understand that the World Champion is getting ready right now to send a serious message to a number of individuals and thus, rather than being distracted by this huge, huge honour, she is making sure she’s ready to take out Marie Jones. But as someone who has been by the side of Sienna for the last couple of years and a central part of Past, Present, Future, I am honoured to accept these awards on their behalf. And next year, the Beauty Factory will be gaining even more gold. Until then, enjoy watching Sienna defend her title and proving she’s the best in the world and if you need a further treat, don’t forget to check out on Youtube the special Beauty Network Swim Special and see true beauty in action-“

 

The sound of a Hellcat scratching through the screen is heard as “Who’s Next” starts to play throughout the arena. The crowd roars with a mix of cheers and boos as Steinbeck turns to the entrance and Regan Street walks out from the back by herself. She just walks up to Laura and eyes her before looking at the awards. She then grabs the Stable of the Year award and looks at it. She then turns to Laura, speaking into the microphone.

 

Regan: “You don’t need to accept anything for me. Because if anyone is going to accept the award for Past, Present, Future, it’s going to be someone who was its heart. And it may be dead and other things now in place, I still hold by what that represented…with me as its present. Ravyn Taylor will find that out on the first Breakdown of the new year. Datura will realize that at Making Things Right.”

 

Laura gulps.

 

Regan: “And Laura…if Sienna has a problem with it, she can come talk to me. Or…you can get your Network…and whether you had anything to do with them on Breakdown, I don’t care. They made a big mistake and anyone who stands with them…will fall!”

 

Regan then takes the award and turns and heads to the back. She just walks past Laura and through the curtain. Spirit looks on as Laura watches head leave before we cut to black.


“The SCW End of the Year Awards….Match of 2018…”

 

The scene opens up to Retribution 2018. We see a shot of Sienna Swann walking down to the ring smirking. This is followed by Selena Frost walking out from the back.

The End of the Year Special returns live to the Scotiabank Arena in Toronto as the crowd cheers. Spirit Dansby smiles at the podium.

 

Spirit: “And finally, one more award left here tonight to hand out and that’s for the Male Wrestler of 2018. It’s been another year where there have been a lot of names making well, a name for themselves and someone stood head and shoulders above the others. So, your Male Wrestler of 2018….”

 

Spirit opens up the envelope, sliding the card out. She smiles again.

 

Spirit: “Andrew Raynes!”

 

The crowd boos some more and “Through Struggle” by As I Lay Dying plays as a few moments pass and Andrew Raynes walks out from the back. He just scoffs and shakes his head before he walks out to the podium. He shakes Spirit’s hand as he turns and looks at the award. He then grabs it and looks at the microphone. His music fades out.

 

Andrew: “Well this is just hilarious…”

 

Andrew chuckles.

 

Andrew: “Star of Tomorrow and Male Wrestler of the Year…even more BS. But this award….I’m going to keep it because I don’t need to worry about it being tainted and it at least reflects that in some way SCW at least realizes what the hell I am!”

 

Andrew Raynes steps back as he turns and we then hear “Haunted” by Taylor Swift start to play throughout the arena. The crowd roars and boos as Andrew Raynes turns.


Marie Jones vs. Sienna Swann

SCW World Championship

Marie Annabelle Jones steps through the curtain, wearing her ring gear and her signature black leather jacket. A broad, somewhat condescending grin is on her face as she turns to Andrew Raynes and then walks past her. Andrew watches her for a moment, but just as he then steps toward her, we see SCW security running forward and stopping Andrew. Andrew tries to get past as Marie turns around.

 

Marie: “Enjoy your award. I’m going to enjoy being World Champion!”

 

Andrew goes to lunge at her again, but he’s stopped. Andrew is pulled back as he just looks at Marie. Marie turns and smirks before starting to head to the ring.

 

Sharper: “Andrew Raynes our Male Wrestler of the Year and Marie Jones coming out set him off.”

 

Knots: “Embracing the hate. And that hate is great and all, but Marie could be holding the richest prize in wrestling!”

 

Marie heads to the ring with a determined stride.  Marie hops up onto the ring apron. She strikes a sultry and sexy pose for the audience. Marie turns and leaps over the top rope and into the ring.  She then hops up onto the second turnbuckle of the nearby corner and holds her arms up high into the air, getting more boos from the crowd. 

 

Sharper: “Marie Jones winning the End of the Year Special vote. Most votes for her, according to Sasha, came from before she sided with Katya.”

 

Knots: “Yeah, well she still got it and we know they have plans, but the issue will be how much back up will get involved in this.”

 

A red carpet is rolled out with a few photographers positioned toward the entrance position, the woman by the name of Laura Steinbeck along with the Truelove Twins directs everyone to take their positions just as the arena goes dark…..
 
Suddenly one lone spotlight shines in entrance where smoke begins to come out and surround the stage. “Style" by Taylor Swift begins to play throughout the arena, the Tron plays the Video of her various photo-shoots, training, fighting, swimsuits, lingerie and walking through nightclubs with men gawking over her in skin tight dresses. Sienna Swann walks out with her head down as the crowd gives a mixed reaction. Sienna then extends her arms and reveals the large golden angel wings that are part of her entrance gear. The SCW World Championship is around her waist. She looks around at the crowd and smirks, posing as the camera flashes begin to pepper down on her from the “paparazzi” staged around her, Laura making sure that they take plenty of pics of The Beautiful Angel before making her way to the ring. Laura instructs the Twins to follow her to the ring as she disappears to the back with the photographers. Sienna walks down to the ring, looking around. She looks up to the rafters as a gold spotlight like the light of heaven shines down on her as gold glitter begins to rain down on the entire arena. Sienna smirks and hops into the ring, spreading her arms out and smiling before taking off her wings from help of the Twins, they make their way out of the ring and to the back while Sienna stands, patiently waiting for the start of the match posing and showing off her assets to the crowd as they continue to give a mix reaction to Sienna as she takes her World Championship off and looks across at Marie Jones. Aaron Demitra stands in the middle of the ring.

 

Sharper: “Here we go. Main event. Aaron Demitra the referee. Sienna Swann the defending champion.”

 

Knots: “No Dark Fantasy out here. No Truelove Twins. Just Marie and Sienna.”

 

Phillips: “Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is scheduled for onefall with a sixty minute time limit and is for the SCW World Championship!”

 

The crowd roars as the SCW World Championship logo comes across the screen and fades to the bottom corner.

 

Phillips: “First, the challenger, to my right, she is from Boston, Massachusetts and is the End of the Year Championship Opportunity Winner, she is the Crown Jewel of Professional Wrestling, Marie Jones!”

 

The crowd boos as Marie Jones steps out and poses. She looks around before she steps back to her corner.

 

Phillips: “And her opponent, to my left, she is from Johannesburg, South Africa, she is the reigning and defending SCW World Champion, the IronAngel, Sienna Swann!”

 

Sienna steps up and holds the World Championship over her head. She glances back at Marie before turning and handing off the title to Demitra. Demitra holds the title over his head as Sienna steps back. Demitra turns and shows the title to Marie. Marie looks at it and nods before he steps back and hands it to Jason Phillips, who exits the ring.

 

Sharper: “Sienna Swann ready for this. Marie Jones getting a look at the title.”

 

Knots: “Like she needed more motivation. And after what was said earlier backstage…”

 

Sharper: “Too ominous, but not like the Network can get involved. And if Dark Fantasy comes out, you know that the Trueloves will too. As many others.”

 

Knots: “Ikiro. Hell, even Andrew Raynes after earlier.”

 

Sharper: “Exactly and not just that, but Syren waits in the wings at Making Things Right. Cassidy Carter is watching this closely too.”

 

The bell sounds as the crowd roars. Marie and Sienna then circle around the ring briefly before lunging and locking up in the middle of the ring with a collar-and-elbow tie-up.

 

Sharper: “Here we go. Sienna and Marie. Sienna with the leverage advantage thanks to her height. Marie with the strength advantage.”

 

Knots: “Yeah and maybe experience. Marie watched her mother face Sienna on Breakdown. I doubt she got any notes, but got to see plenty.”

 

Sharper: “Angelica and Marie share a similar wrestling style. Angelica also trained Sienna too.”

 

Sienna starts to push Marie back and into the corner. The crowd roars as the referee starts to call for the break. Marie leans back, extending her arms for the break. Sienna just smirks and nails her with a hard forearm to the jaw. Marie turns and Sienna then chops her. The crowd woos. She grabs Marie and whips her across the ring.
