My heart bleeds adrenaline

But the strong rise under the gun

Legendary

Shots of Derek Adonis and Cookie, Damian Angel, Konrad Raab, Donovan Kayl, Katie Steward, Rachel Tatum Lee, Brittany Lohan, and Twin Magic fly up on the screen before the Rise to Greatness logo comes up on the screen, followed by the Pre-Show logo.

As the bridge of “Legendary” plays in the background, a panning shot of the inside of the American Airlines Center. As part of the shot, we see fans walking through SCW Fanfest, which includes autograph tables and exhibitions, while we also cut to the ring set up.

Sharper: “We are live at Rise to Greatness weekend in Dallas, Texas!”

Cutting to ringside, Adam Sharper and Jonathan Knots are found at the announce table.

Sharper: “Hello everyone. Adam Sharper here with Jonathan Knots at ringside. We are live in the American Airlines Center in Dallas, the home tonight of SCW Fanfest and of the SCW Rise to Greatness pre-show.”

Knots: “And before we head to the big show tomorrow night, we got some matters to figure out tonight. We’re going to find out who is going to the big dance to compete for the Tag Teamm Championship. Four teams, a one-night tournament. Someone is gonna be challenging the Jackass and Big Ass Connection tomorrow night!”

Sharper: “And we’ll also see the TV Title on the line. Kelsai Adamson-Mason getting a huge opportunity. Amy Chastaine will be in her corner. She’ll challenge Peyton Rice. And Jon, it’s time to get started!”

“Just A Dream” by Nelly plays throughout the arena, a gold spotlight with blue flashers begin to circle the entranceway. The two beautiful Twins, London and Paris Truelove walk out holding hands. They look out at the crowd and then to the ring.

Phillips: “The opening contest is scheduled for onefall with a twenty minute time limit and is part of the SCW Tag Team Championship Tournament. First, on their way to the ring, both hailing from Johannesburg, South Africa, they are 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. Paris steps into the ring as London holds the ropes open for her. Paris then holds the ropes open for London. They both walk to the turnbuckles, climb to the second ropes and pose. London looks down and sighs as Paris basks in the moment. She jumps down as London steps down. They then walk over to their corner.

Sharper: “Starting things off here tonight on the pre-show. Tomorrow night, the World Tag Team Championship will be defended. The winner of this tournament will get that opportunity.”

Knots: “Yeah and the Trueloves are the favourites. They’ve got the experience and have been close to winning the titles.”

Sharper: “But you wonder if there’s something in their heads. Kicked out of the Beauty Factory for failing to win the titles at Taking Hold of the Flame. We’ve seen it time and time again. A chip on one’s shoulder could be huge. Can motivate you, but can also make the pressure that much.”

Knots: “Biggest weekend of the year. I think everyone’s got some pressure, Sharper!”

“Scarlet” begins to play as the entire arena in engulfed in red lighting, feeling so much like a thick red veil has overtaken the arena that it's suffocating. Through the smoke that begins to cover the stage, Scarlet Grey and Ruby Amarant slowly saunter out onto the stage hand-in-hand and hips bumping as they walk, drawing the gaze of every fan in the arena as they are entranced by this sight. Scarlet slowly turns to Ruby with a smirk and slowly starts running a hand up and down her body, trying to intentionally shift some of the focus over to her as Ruby just smiles back at her, and when Scarlet rises back to full height the two share a brief but passionate kiss before they begin heading down to the ring.

Phillips: “Their opponents, from parts unknown, they are Ruby Amarant and Scarlet Grey, the Red Empire!”

Scarlet catches the lingering gaze of some of the fans and winking to them as Ruby just keeps her smile, pleased that Scarlet's enjoying herself. As they reach ringside Scarlet slowly walks up the steps before stepping between the top and second ropes, taking her sweet time with it to show off not only her ample display of cleavage but also the greatest ass god himself ever created for a woman. She then spreads her legs as she leans back against the ropes and allows Ruby to slide into the ring between her legs. Ruby slowly twists around and rises as Scarlet approaches, taking Ruby's hands to run them up along her own body as well. This ends with the two of them locking lips again, one leg slowly rising from each of them before they separate. As the lights return to normal, Scarlet saunters over to try and start flirting with the referee as the look on Ruby's face changes, making it clear that at least she's flipped the switch and is ready for war.

Sharper: “Scarlet Grey and Ruby Amarant, the Red Empire, have asked for this match. The Truelove Twins have been dominated in the division for quite some time. At the same time, a lot of people have been wondering when the Red Empire is going to break out.”

Knots: “They wanted to slay the beast and go at them. Good on them. But I think they just set themselves for a hard fall. And that means a lesser payday too!”

Sharper: “Something to think about – not just the World Tag Team Championship, but a winner’s purse and win tonight, win tomorrow, that’s a nice amount of money too to the victors.”

Knots: “Yeah. That’s lighting cigars in celebration money!”

The bell sounds as the Trueloves look across at Scarlet and Ruby. Ruby remains in the ring as Scarlet smirks and steps out to the apron. London and Paris talk to one another before Paris steps forward. The crowd looks on.

Sharper: “Looks like Paris Truelove and Ruby Amarant to start us off. The first two people to clash on Rise to Greatness weekend!”

The crowd roars as Paris and Ruby circle the ring a bit and lunge, locking up in a collar and elbow tie-up. They push on one another and Ruby ducks under and into an arm wrench. She smirks and jerks on the arm. Paris reaches up and Ruby keeps pulling up. Paris then cartwheels out and then spins over Ruby’s arm and then just blasts her with a forearm. Ruby falls to the mat. The crowd roars as Paris just looks at her. Ruby rolls over. Scarlet points to her as the official tells her to stay in the corner. Ruby gets up and nods before stepping out and then going for a hard right, but Paris drops down with a drop toe hold. She rolls through and into a side headlock. She pulls back as Ruby reaches around. Paris slowly gets her legs under her as Ruby does too. Paris holds on and Ruby then steps forward before rolling over, snapping Paris down to the mat, and forcing the break. Paris rolls through and gets up and Ruby gets up as Paris steps forward and Ruby grabs her by the arm and hits an arm drag and holds on.

Sharper: “Ruby with a nice arm drag. Paris was willing to chain wrestle. More the forte of Ruby.”

Knots: “Could be a test. Or could be Paris telling Red Empire they’re feeling good.”

Paris winces as she starts to get up. Ikiro Yoshida is then shown standing in the middle of a crowd of people, a kid just pointing to him as he watches one of the common televisions. Ikiro turns to the kid.

Ikiro: “No. Don’t look at EyeYoshi. Look at twins. EyeYoshi tomorrow!”

The camera remains on him for a moment longer.

Sharper: “Ikiro Yoshida watching this match from the floor in Fanfest.”

Knots: “We have monitors in the back. He’s got fans all around him!”

Sharper: “Ikiro trying to turn their attention to the match, but meanwhile, Paris fighting out here.”

Paris elbows her way out as she runs into the ropes. She bounces off and Ruby goes for a clothesline. She ducks and stops at the ropes as Scarlet steps over. Paris backs up and hits a back elbow to Ruby. Ruby stumbles back and Scarlet snaps at her before Paris nails her with a forearm. Scarlet drops to a knee. Paris turns around and Ruby quickly hits nails her with a forearm shot and then a left forearm shot before hitting a discus forearm shot, knocking Paris to the mat. Paris rolls over and Ruby drags her up and pulls her over to Scarlet. She tags in Scarlet and hits an STO. Ruby rolls out of the way as Scarlet slingshots into the ring with a twisting splash, pressing her chest into Paris’ face.

Paris pushes her off. Scarlet rolls off and Paris rolls over to the ropes. She touches her face and looks up and Scarlet just smirks before Paris reaches out and grabs Scarlet by the hair and knees her in the ribs and sends her into the neutral corner. Paris turns around annoyed and runs at Scarlet, but Scarlet gets both knees up. Paris stumbles back and Scarlet runs out and takes her down with a Lou Thesz press into a pin.

Sharper: “Scarlet getting under the skin of Paris! Takedown! Cover!”

Paris pushes her off again. Scarlet rolls over and turns as Paris gets up and Scarlet drop toe holds her down before jumping up and over to the head of Paris. Paris tries to fight but Scarlet drives her down into the mat face first with her knees. She then hooks her legs under the arms of Paris and lifts her up and down over and over before Paris fights it and manages to get free. Scarlet fights a bit and London leans back, holding the top rope and sticking her feet into the ring over the bottom rope. Paris then lifts Scarlet up and turns, driving her face first into London’s feet.

Sharper: “And London and Paris thinking together with one brain in some way. The moment Paris got free, London was setting up.”

Knots: “And Scarlet hit that with the hard part of her body, not the squishy parts!”

Paris turns and tags in London.

Sharper: “London goes to the top!”

London climbs to the top rope as Scarlet staggers up to her feet, holding her face and London dives off with a crossbody, taking Scarlet down and right into a pin.

Scarlet kicks out. She turns and gets up as London gets up and grabs Scarlet and hooks her up and hits a vertical suplex. London turns and runs into the ropes, bounces off and hits a running frog splash. She hooks the leg.

Scarlet kicks out. London rolls over and gets up as Scarlet stirs. She pulls herself up and falls to the ropes. London heads after her and grabs her, but Scarlet dropkicks her in the knee. London falls to the middle rope and Scarlet rolls over to get the referee’s attention, intentionally pushing her breasts up to draw that attention as Ruby runs over and hits a running boot to the side of London’s head. London rolls over to the middle of the ring. Paris walks along the apron and Scarlet straightens up as she points across. The official heads over. Scarlet claps her hands as Ruby does too and they enter. London stirs and Ruby runs over and nails her with a sliding forearm smash.

Sharper: “Subterfuge and distraction!”

Knots: “Even the blind tag and the referee got an eyeful!”

Sharper: “Scarlet knows how to use her body to get attention and London may be out. Hard forearm.”

Paris walks back and the official turns back to Ruby and sees her covering London.

London gets her shoulder up. Ruby looks up. She then grabs London by the hair and drags her up before kicking her in the ribs and then jumping up and over onto her back and hitting the Ruby Sunrise.

Paris boots Ruby in the face and Ruby falls back and London covers her.

Scarlet enters as Paris nails her with a shot to the jaw. She rolls to the floor. Ruby kicks out though. Paris is then forced out of the ring. London then rolls over as Ruby gets up and turns to see Scarlet down and then turns back to London who hits a jawbreaker. Ruby hits the mat. London rolls over and turns and tags in Paris as she exits. Paris snaps at the official.

Paris: “Now I’m legal!”

The official nods as Ruby gets up and Paris heads over and kicks Ruby in the ribs. She holds her up as London heads over.

Sharper: “Paris fired up here! She’s not happy about the Red Empire bending the rules.”

Knots: “And in the past, it was them doing it!”

Scarlet however starts to enter as London and Paris look at Ruby. Scarlet slides in and gets up and Paris knees Ruby. London heads over to Scarlet and forearms her in the jaw and then again and again. Paris heads over and grabs her and they whip her across the ring. Scarlet bounces off and Paris and London lift her up and hit a huge big back body drop. Scarlet rolls over, holding her back and London turns to Paris as Ruby runs up behind Paris, shoving her into London. London and Paris hit heads and London falls back through the ropes to the floor before Ruby rolls Paris up with a school boy and pulls on the tights!

Sharper: “Wait! Ruby!”

Knots: “They hit heads!”

Sharper: “And a cover!”

The crowd roars and then boos as Ruby lets go and rolls toward Scarlet. Scarlet rolls over on the floor, holding her lower back.

Phillips: “Here are your winners, via pinfall, Ruby Amarant and Scarlet Grey, Red Empire!”

Sharper: “The Red Empire has just defeated the Truelove Twins in the first round!”

Knots: “They had the tights!”

Sharper: “Official didn’t see it, but this has to be seen as an upset! A massive upset! Red Empire is going to face the winner of either Ashes and Embers or Zero You Know Whats to Give tonight!”

Knots: “Paris and London are stunned!”

London looks in, shocked as Paris rolls over, holding her head and then looking around and pulling up her tights. Ruby helps Scarlet up as Scarlet looks at Ruby with a bit of a smile. Ruby smirks back as she raises Scarlet’s arm. Paris gets up and falls into the ropes, wincing. London rolls in as she gets up. The referee drops down to the floor to raise their arms too. The crowd boos.

Sharper: “What a start to Rise to Greatness weekend. A huge upset!”

Knots; “You said it. We’re just getting started!”

Red Empire start to walk around, Scarlet Grey preening a bit as Ruby Amarant watches the Trueloves who walk around the ring, trying to come to terms with what just happened.

The Pre-Show returns with a wide shot of the American Airlines Center in Dallas, and we cut to see Jessica Winters walking through Fanfest.

Jessica: “Welcome back to the Rise to Greatness pre-show. Jessica Winters here, live in Dallas, and as you can see, fans all around us here, taking an opportunity to see their favourite wrestlers, but also get an experience they could never get anywhere else. For example, right over there…”

The camera turns to show a display of the former title belts and their designs dating back to 2003.

Jessica: “You can take a trip down memory lane. Every title that SCW has had, from the XIC Championship, to the original Canadian Championship to every iteration of the SCW World Championship, they are there. You can walk underneath the Thunderdome and get an opportunity to feel what it is like to be inside that structure. We have relics from the past, such as the Mother Canucker entrance attire of CHBK, to one of the masks Jason Zero wore as the Phantom, to even parts that Damian Angel used to pin The Real Speed to the stage years ago. It’s a wrestling fan’s dream. But you also get a chance to talk to some of the people here, get their autograph…”

Jessica then walks over to Donovan Kayl who is standing to the side of some of the autograph tables.

Jessica: “And I am going to just take a moment. Donovan Kayl, your final chapter, the climax to the movie that is your career, it will happen tomorrow. You run the Goddess Gauntlet. All three Stewards up against you.”

Kayl: “Would be a hell of a way to end it, no? Then again, I suppose if I just lay an egg, get pinned, it would be a feather in the cap of any of the Stewards. The problem is that I knew that’s where this was going. Katie is not one to care about anything anyone else does but herself. None of this was about me. It was about her getting her moment. Well, I decided to write my own ending and I may as well do one good thing before I walk out of here. I can only hope to teach Katie some humility.”

Jessica: “Well good luck tomorrow and we look forward to it, as it will be a hell of a way to cap off an amazing career. Congratulations.”

Kayl: “Thanks.”

Jessica: “Let’s go back to the ring.”

“Somethin’ Bad” by Miranda Lambert with Carrie Underwood plays as we see Ember Young and Ash Harte walk out from the back with Woody Hoyt. They look around the arena and the crowd cheers a bit. Ash meanwhile has two rectangular bags hanging off her shoulders. The two look around in their sunglasses before heading to the ring.

Phillips: “The opening contest is scheduled for onefall with a twenty minute time limit and is part of the SCW Tag Team Championship Tournament. First, on their way to the ring, accompanied by Woody Hoyt, they are Ember Young and Ash Harte, Embers and Ashes!”

They head down to the ring and run down and slide in. Ember and Ash get up and look around. Ash puts the bags down in the middle of the ring as Ash heads over to the corner and Ember heads to the opposite corner. Woody points to them. They hop down and all go to the corner and starts to speak as Woody heads over to the bags.

Sharper: “Ember and Ash have brought something with them. They’ve been getting better by the week, but their lack of experience in this division has been a bit of a problem.”

Knots: “They’re hoping to put it all together. But what the hell did they bring? Whatever they did, Woody is guarding it.”

Sharper: “Clearly they have something planned.”

The arenas lights cut completely, plunging the room into darkness for a second or two as the fans quieten in expectation. A woman whispering can be heard across the PA system.

“Don’t bless me father, for I have sinned...”

A snicker is heard in a very Yorkshire accent.

“Who d'ya think encouraged her?”

“Going To Hell” by The Pretty Reckless hits the PA system as the fans erupt in boos and blue and white spotlights flash on and off across the stage. The music plays for a few seconds before Ryan Watson walks out onto the stage, swiftly followed by Autumn Valentine. The couple stand together on the stage for a moment before Ryan throws up his hands and pushes them together, revealing the “P1” symbol on his gloves, while Autumn turns her back to the camera and holds her arms downward, revealing the words “DARK FANTASY” on the back of her ring jacket.

Phillips: “Ladies and gentlemen, making their way to the ring, from Anaheim, California, she is Autumn Valentine! Her partner, from Sheffield, England, he is the Prodigal One, Ryan Watson. Together, they are Zero Clucks to Give!”

Sharper: “There you go. He didn’t say it.”

Knots: “You owe me fifty bucks.”

The duo makes their way to the ring. Autumn walks up the ring steps as Ryan slides into the ring, pausing for a moment to pull up the middle rope and step down on the bottom rope, allowing his wife into the ring. Ryan then walks over to the far corner, throwing up his hands in front of him again as Autumn climbs up on the ropes next to him and leans in toward him, nodding at the camera as it focuses on the symbol on Watson’s gloves. After a few moments both get down from their position and both remove their ring jackets, tossing them into their corner. Autumn stretches out against the ropes as Ryan runs the ropes back and forth for a moment, getting ready for the match. The official grabs the bags and Woody finally relents and tags them and walks over toward the Embers and Ashes corner.

Sharper: “Ryan Watson and Autumn Valentine ready to compete. Winner faces Red Empire.”

Knots: “Still surprised. And I guess Woody is finally moving those bags. Maybe they were for some sort of blood sacrifice. To help them win or something.”

Sharper: “Watson and Valentine better be careful. They’re the favourites. Trueloves were too. Ash and Ember may be newly emboldened!”

The bell sounds. Ryan then turns and walks to the middle of the ring and just then, Ash runs across the ring and nails Autumn through the ropes. Ember reveals the content of one of the bags, a camera, complete with flash, and she sets it off in Ryan’s face. The crowd ohs and some boo as Ryan squints in pain, holding his eyes and Ember throws the camera back to Woody before rolling Ryan up.

Sharper: “Hey! A camera flash!”

Knots: “That’s what was in there. And they had a plan!”

Ryan kicks out. The crowd roars. Ash turns as the official tries to get her out, but Ryan gets up and Ash hits a dropkick. Ryan hits the mat. Ember gets up and hits an elbow drop to Ryan and then gets up and hits a second one. She goes for another pin.

Ryan pushes her off and rolls over. He rubs his eyes and starts to get up, moving to the corner. Ash now exits as Ember gets up and runs over and jumps up and splashes Ryan in the chest. Ryan stumbles out and to a knee.

Sharper: “Ember and Ash all over Ryan Watson.”

Knots: “I wonder if they have anything to give now!”

Autumn gets up and enters and goes to stop Ember. Ember backs up as the official stops her and Ash then enters and Ember and Ash run over and kick Ryan in the ribs and then push him into the corner before they kick away. Autumn yells at the official before being forced back. Ember then exits as Ash remains in.

Sharper: “Ash and Ember had a plan to start this match and Ryan Watson is in trouble!”

Knots: “I think they just switched too!”

Ash grabs Ryan and runs him out with a running facebuster. Ryan rolls over. Ash goes for the pin as Autumn is forced out.

Ryan kicks out. He turns and rolls over and Ash grabs him and clubs him in the back and then again before grabbing his head again. She turns to go for a bulldog, but Ryan hoists her up and manages to spin around before hitting a huge blue thunder bomb. Ash rolls over, holding her head and neck as Ryan rolls over to his back. Ash winces as Ryan holds his chest and turns to Autumn who has her arm out. Ryan crawls over as Ash rolls over and tags in Ember. Ember enters and Ryan tags in Autumn. Autumn enters and nails Ember with a hard right. She runs over and nails Ash as she starts to get out, knocking her through the ropes to the floor. Autumn spins around and kicks Ember in the ribs. She then pushes her into the ropes and fires her off. Ember bounces off and Autumn jumps up and hits a leg lariat. She goes for the pin.

Ember kicks out. Autumn turns and forearms Ember in the face and then again. Ember rolls over and gets up and Autumn follows after and runs her face first into the corner.

Sharper: “Autumn running Ember across. Hard into the top turnbuckle.”

Knots: “Autumn is not pleased about the start to this one. She has plenty of clucks to give! Phillips! You lied!”

Autumn turns and whips Ember out, but Ember stops and pulls her in and jumps up and hits a face to knee strike. The crowd ohs. Autumn rolls over in pain. She winces and Ember grabs her and hoists her up before hooking her by the head and arm and lifting her up and hitting a slingshot suplex, bouncing her off the top rope. Ember rolls through into a pin.

Autumn kicks out. Ember gets up and turns and tags in Ash. Ash climbs up to the top rope. She looks at Autumn as Ember turns and looks at her before nodding and then running to the corner, jumping to the middle turnbuckle. Ember grabs Ash and then throws her off and into Autumn, knocking her down. The crowd ohs.

Sharper: “Embers and Ashes! From the top! Ember just suplexed Ash into Autumn!”

Knots: “Gave her a bit more impact. Right to Autumn’s face!”

Ash scrambles and goes for the pin.

Autumn gets her shoulder up. Ember slowly exits as Ash starts to get up. She stomps Autumn in the chest and then the face. Autumn rolls over. She grabs at the ropes. Ash walks over and Ryan walks around and swipes at her. Ash backs up and snaps at him. The official tells him to get back and Ash grabs Autumn and pulls her up and forearms her in the jaw. Autumn spins off to the ropes and then bounces off and forearms Ash in the jaw. Ash fires back with a forearm of her own before Autumn kicks her in the ribs. She runs into the ropes, bounces off and Ash just tackles Autumn down. Ash rolls through and grabs her arm.

Sharper: “That wasn’t pretty at all.”

Knots: “Was effective and Autumn just taken down. Ash bigger than her just smothered her.”

Ash continues to hold on and reaches back. Ember enters. Autumn tries to get free and Ember runs across the ring, bounces off and jumps up and hits a cartwheel leg drop. The crowd ohs and Ember goes for the pin, hooking the leg. Ryan starts to enter.

Autumn gets her shoulder up. Ember looks at her and Ash exits as Autumn slowly rolls over and Ash then grabs her and snapmares her over. Ash then looks around before Autumn gets to her knees and Ember hits a shoot kick to her chest and then another one before another one and finally a fourth. She looks around and runs into the ropes. She bounces off, but Autumn gets up and shoulders her in the ribs. She hooks her up by the head and hoists her up, and drops her such that Ember’s legs land on the top rope and Autumn drops her with a ropehung neckbreaker. The crowd roars.

Sharper: “Autumn Valentine counters. Takes Ember up and showing a bit of strength and ring awareness. Dropping Ember right down on her head and neck!”

Knots: “And Ryan Watson now wants in and he’s got more clucks now that anyone in this building!”

Sharper: “That’s one way to put it.”

Ryan is pacing a bit as the official watches as Autumn rolls over. Ember slowly starts to stirs as Autumn lunges and tags in Ryan. The crowd cheers a bit, while some boo as Ryan enters the ring and he immediately drops Ember with a European uppercut. Ash enters and runs over and Ryan hits a European uppercut on her too. Ash rolls out of the ring. Ember turns and Ryan hooks her up and hits the Systemic Failure. He rolls through and gets up before looking at Ember and jumping up and hitting the Leap of Fame. The crowd ohs and Ryan rolls her over and hooks the leg.

Ember gets her shoulder up. The crowd ohs. Ryan gets up and grabs Ember. Ryan turns and whips her into the corner. Ryan runs after and hits a running clothesline. Ember falls back and down to the mat. Ryan then looks around before exiting to the apron. He climbs up to the top rope. Ash enters and runs across and jumps to the ropes. Ryan lands hard and rolls into the ring. Ash looks on and then looks relieved before getting up and Autumn runs at her. Ash ducks and steps forward and Autumn jumps to the top rope and dives back with a roundhouse kick. The crowd ohs and Ash falls down to the mat and rolls to the floor.

Sharper: “Ash stopped Ryan. But Autumn with the springboard roundhouse! Ash Harte knocked for a loop and right to the floor!”

Knots: “Autumn admiring it too, but Ember’s up! Maybe she should take a picture! It’ll last longer!”

Autumn turn around and Ember kicks her in the ribs. She hoists her up and goes for the Third Degree Burn. The crowd roars as Autumn struggles a bit and Ryan manages to get up and quickly hits a straight kick to the ribs. Ember drops Autumn and Autumn lands on her feet. She then steps forward and Ryan looks at her. They then look at Ember before Ryan goes low and Autumn goes high and they hit the Wedded Bliss!

Sharper: “Autumn goes high! Ryan goes low!”

Knots: “They just took Ember out. And not just that, that’s awfully similar to the Truelove Twins’ Twin Killing!”

Sharper: “Ember wasn’t just taken out. I think she could be out. Ryan is going for the pin!”

Ash starts to get up on the floor and Autumn kicks through the ropes, knocking her back as Ryan goes for the pin, hooking the leg.

The crowd roars. Ryan rolls off. Autumn backs up. Ryan then gets up as Autumn walks over and the two embrace and kiss in the middle of the ring.

Phillips: “Here are your winners, via pinfall, Autumn Valentine and Ryan Watson, Zero Clucks to Give!”

Sharper: “Watson and Valentine! They get through and the two teams that were allies and even working together as recently as Breakdown, they’ll meet to determine who goes to Rise to Greatness tomorrow night to challenge for the Tag Team Championship!”

Knots: “Ash and Ember had a hell of a start, but Ryan and Autumn, experience helped them get through and they certainly didn’t live up to their name!”

Sharper: “Autumn and Ryan victorious. Close, but not close enough for Embers and Ashes.”

The camera cuts to the camera that Ember had used.

Sharper: “You wonder if they noticed their start too.”

Knots: “They’ll have plenty of time this weekend to think about it!”

Ryan Watson and Autumn Valentine continue to celebrate in the ring, clearly fired up as Woody helps Ash up and Ember rolls to the apron.

The scene cuts to show Jordan Majors seated at one of the autograph booths and just looking up and giving a fake smile as she signs something of a fan. She then gets up and one of the organizers comes over.

Jordan: “I’ll be right back.”

Jordan then heads around her table and walks down one path before we see Jessica Winters coming over to her.

Jessica: “Jordan! Could I get a word before-“

Jordan: “Not now!”

Jordan then steps forward and looks around before letting out an annoyed grunt. She turns back to Jessica.

Jordan: “Way to go. I had planned to speak to someone tonight, but you ruined it. And to give you a little soundbite…unlike you, I don’t plan to ruin anything tomorrow night. I plan to let Abigail have her moment. And then I’m focusing on me!”

Jordan turns and heads back to her table. Jessica watches her leave.

COMMERCIALS

The lights dim to a crimson red color throughout the arena. A high pitched female voice can be heard over the PA speakers…

"I Lost My Miiiiiiind..."

The image of a red dragon appears on the Tron. The dragon is engulfed in flames as it is replaced by a phoenix. Then that too goes up in flames as it is replaced by an image of Angelica Jones. The big screen shows images of Angelica Jones delivering the Hot Shot and the Divine Impact to SCW wrestlers. Angelica then steps out onto the stage. She is dressed in all black, from head to toe, and that includes a black trenchcoat. Her long hair hangs down to shoulder length. She stares menacingly, sadistically down at the ring, pausing before finally beginning to make the long walk to the ring.

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall and has a fifteen minute time limit. First, on her way to the ring, from Boston, Massachusetts, she is Angelica Jones!”

Once at ringside she takes a sharp turn to the right and then ascends the steel steps, making her way up to the ring apron. She strolls slowly to the center before turning towards the audience. She looks out intensely at the crowd before posing with both arms raised high into the air. Angelica steps into the ring and then steps over to the opposite side of the ring where she poses on the second rope. She then jumps off and heads to the center where the music dies down and the lights come back up. She stands, waiting for the match to begin.

Sharper: “Angelica Jones stepping up to help her ally and her cousin Glory Braddock, acting as an obstacle to the man known as Casterillo.”

Knots: “Yeah. Casterillo’s whole purpose since returning seems to be gunning for Glory. With it being such a big night tomorrow, clearly Angelica is looking to stop Casterillo from being a factor.”

The entire arena suddenly goes black and stays that way for about 10 seconds, making the crowd begin to think that nothing is going to happen. That is until one solitary lightning strike strikes on the big screen. This leads right to the beginning of "Seven Devils" by Florence & The Machine. The music plays even though the arena stays dark. It is about 10 more seconds before suddenly the lights turn on, with the dark figure of Casterillo standing right in the center of the ring, with a blank look in his eyes. He immediately springs right into action.

Phillips: “And her opponent, from Wherever He Pleases, Casterillo!”

The crowd boos as Casterillo’s eyes remain on Angelica.

Sharper: “Casterillo appearing and he has one simple plan – to hurt Angelica.”

Knots: “Remove someone from his way and tomorrow night could be a unique one for Glory!”

Casterillo and Angelica remain looking at one another before the bell sounds. The crowd roars as Angelica steps up to Casterillo. The two look at one another before Angelica headbutts Casterillo. Casterillo turns away as the crowd roars. Angelica then nails him with a forearm shot and then another and another. She steps forward to grab him and Casterillo pulls her in before shoving her back. Angelica rolls through. She gets up and Casterillo lunges and goes for a quick clothesline. Angelica ducks. Casterillo turns around and Angelica kicks him in the ribs and then again and again. Casterillo falls to the ropes. Angelica then leans in and grabs him by the hair and nails him with a hard right.

Sharper: “Angelica aggressive in these opening moments!”

Knots: “I don’t know if Casterillo is just letting her tee off or he’s absorbing it all. He’s almost got a smirk on his face.”

Angelica nails him again and Casterillo swings, nailing her with a shot to the jaw. Angelica staggers back and Casterillo push up and lunges and goes for a hard right, nailing Angelica, knocking her down. He shakes out his fist as Angelica gets up and Casterillo knees her in the ribs. He spins her around and into the corner, following up by kneeing her in the ribs and then again and again before grabbing her. He goes for a big beal out of the corner, but Angelica flips through and lands on her feet. Casterillo turns and Angelica backflips back, placing her legs on Casterillo’s shoulder and then headscissoring him down.

Sharper: “The agility of Angelica Jones is always a difference maker and she manages to get the much larger Casterillo down.”

Knots: “They always say control the head and the rest follows. Angelica proved it there. Right into the mat!”

Angelica gets up as Casterillo rolls through and turns and goes for a clothesline. Angelica ducks and runs into the ropes, bounces off and hits a flying headscissors. Casterillo rolls through and gets up and Angelica remains on her back, only to nip up. She goes for a frankensteiner, but Casterillo catches her and holds on. He looks down at her with disdain before hoisting her up and then throwing her down with a vicious Trial by Fire. He remains down for the pin.

Angelica rolls her shoulder up and rolls over.

Sharper: “Casterillo with pure power and just making Angelica regret everything.”

Knots: “Not just that, but probably making her feel the inside of her ribs with the impact. Her heart had to bounce in there.”

Angelica crawls to the ropes, gritting her teeth as she gets up and Casterillo walks over and grabs her by the hair and then throws her face first into the top turnbuckle. She turns and Casterillo hits a back elbow and then steps forward before hitting a vicious back kick. The impact causes Angelica to staggers out in pain and she turns around only for Casterillo to scoop her up and drop her with a backbreaker. He goes for the lateral press.

Angelica kicks out. She rolls over and Casterillo gets up and quickly elbows her in the back of the head. Angelica rolls over wincing. Casterillo drags her up by the hair and pulls her to her feet before drilling her with a vicious clothesline to the back of the head. Angelica goes face first into the mat.

Sharper: “Hard clothesline. Angelica couldn’t see it coming.”

Knots: “Probably for the best. Then she’d know how much it was going to hurt.”

Casterillo then grabs Angelica and drags her up by the hair again and then knees her in the ribs and then again before whipping her across. Angelica bounces off and Casterillo goes for Thunder Run. He hits it and turns and drops down for the pin.

Angelica gets her shoulder up again. She turns and rolls over as Casterillo knees her in the back and then again and again. Casterillo pulls her up again and starts to speak in her face. Angelica then kicks him in the ribs and then again before Casterillo swings and Angelica ducks and Casterillo turns around and Angelica kicks him in the ribs and hits a DDT. The crowd cheers. Angelica turns and hooks the leg.

Casterillo pushes her off. He slowly stirs as Angelica turns to him and then runs into the ropes. She bounces off and as Casterillo gets to a knee and Angelica hits the Stubborn Bitch. The crowd ohs. Angelica goes for the pin again.

Casterillo kicks out again. The crowd boos.

Sharper; “Two counter as Angelica tried to take Casterillo’s head off with that Stubborn Bitch!”

Knots: “Casterillo is getting annoyed. You can see it in his eyes. He’s not appreciating this fight. He wants to end it, but Angelica, the dragon is getting unleashed!”

Casterillo pulls himself up and turns around as Angelica kicks him in the ribs and runs into the ropes. She jumps to the middle rope and backflips back for a reverse DDT, but Casterillo catches her. The crowd roars and boos and Casterillo turns and hits a powerslam. The crowd ohs and Angelica rolls over, holding her lower back. She gets up and Casterillo runs into the ropes, bounces off and drills her with a Thunder Run. The crowd boos and Casterillo rolls her over and covers her.

Angelica shoots her shoulder up. Casterillo looks up and takes a deep breath. He then grabs her and drags her up and knees her in the ribs and then again. He gutwrenches her and hoists her up, but Angelica spins through and grabs Casterillo’s head and manages to drag him down into the mat with a DDT. The crowd roars.

Sharper: “Gutwrench countered into a spike DDT!”

Knots: “Casterillo just found out how that mat felt himself. Angelica’s trying to return some of the favours!”

Casterillo rolls over, shaking off the cobwebs and slowly gets up only for Angelica to kick him in the ribs. She double underhooks him and goes for the Hot Shot, but Casterillo counters with a back drop. Angelica rolls over and gets up and Casterillo grabs her by the throat. He hoists her up and Angelica backflips through, when Casterillo hoists him up and then hits a jumping enziguiri kick. Casterillo falls to a knee and Angelica turns and grabs him, double underhooking him and hitting the Hot Shot. She rolls him over and hooks the leg.

The crowd cheers. The bell sounds.

Phillips: “Here is your winner, via pinfall, Angelica Jones!”

Sharper: “Angelica Jones hit the Hot Shot and gets the victory!”

Knots: “She gets the victory but Casterillo is still there. Angelica Jones said she was going to take him out and obstruct!”

Angelica rolls off and looks back at Casterillo. She then looks around before rolling to the floor. The crowd roars a bit as Angelica turns to the ring and pulls up the ring apron. She looks around before grabbing a steel chair, the weapon of choice for her and Glory as of late. She then turns and looks into the ring as the crowd cheers. Angelica places the chair onto the apron and slides in. She pulls it up as Casterillo stirs. Angelica then turns and hoists it up and goes to nail Casterillo, but the official stops her. Angelica turns and looks at the official with a look of pure anger.

Sharper: “The ref just stopped Angelica from driving that chair into Casterillo!”

Knots: “And now that ref may be about to feel what that chair feels like!”

Angelica continues to glare at him as Casterillo starts to get up, a smirk on his face and Angelica turns around and Casterillo hits a spinning back fist, right to the jaw of Angelica. She drops to the mat. Casterillo then turns and looks at her. Angelica is down on the mat, wincing. Casterillo then leans over.

Casterillo: “You won’t be stopping me!”

Casterillo then calmly looks at the official before backing up and turning and stepping out of the ring. He then starts to walk toward the back calmly and looking right at the curtain. Angelica meanwhile turns and looks at Casterillo and starts to move forward, clearly annoyed.

Sharper: “A vicious spinning back fist and Angelica dropped!”

Knots: “That’s how sudden and how effective he is. You heard him! He’s not going to be stopped!”

Sharper: “Does that look like the face of someone in Angelica who is just now going to get out of his way?”

Knots: “No. That looks like the someone is sleeping on the couch face. And I don’t think Casterillo owns a couch!”

Casterillo continues to head to the back before the scene fades out.

Sharper: “Let’s now go back to Jessica Winters and she’s with someone who knows this event well. Jessica?”

Cutting back to the floor of Fanfest, we see Jessica Winters standing next to Jake Starr, who is at his autograph table.

Jake: “Who’s going to kick Zero…not Jason...but Zero’s ass tomorrow night?”

The crowd roars, the camera turning to show some of them as Jake smirks.

Jessica: “Seems like you’re quite confident tomorrow. Jake, this is an event that you’ve had a very good record at in the past. You’re facing someone who frankly based his entire thought about you from your past and he called you out.”

Jake: “To be fair, I thought he was Jason Zero, which frankly is about as bad of an insult I could give, but well, I guess turnabout is fair play!”

Jake smirks.

Jake: “Okay, okay. So it’s not that bad. But Zero, he wanted to come at me. Doing his justice deal. Great. It’s helped me get back to feeling good out there and I’m going to feel good out there. It’s been a while since I was on that stage. And I’m not just talking about Rise to Greatness. Taking Hold of the Flame is one thing. The stress is limited. I don’t win, so be it. Well I didn’t win. This…this is now the spotlights are on me. The lights are bright. They get hot. And Zero…you better realize that too. I plan to be comfortable out there and give you an asskicking because that’s what I do. You…keep judging me for whatever. You’re just going to hate me more after tomorrow night!”

Jake turns back to the crowd.

Jake: “Now who wants an autograph!”

The crowd roars.

Jake: “Gotta go back to work.”

Jessica: “Thanks Jake.”

Jake: “No problem.”

Jessica: “We’ll be back with more from Dallas! Don’t go anywhere!”

The scene fades to black.

A wide shot of the American Airlines Center greets the viewer as the camera pans down to Adam Sharper and Jonathan Knots at ringside.

Sharper: “It’s been a great weekend thus far here in Dallas, the home of Rise to Greatness XVI.”

Knots: “It has. And Kennie and I have made sure to take a moment to enjoy it before she gets her hands on Chris Cannon tomorrow night.”

Sharper: “She’ll team with Owen Cruze to face Sienna Swann and Chris Cannon. Along with that, some huge matches – Datura and Regan Street for the Adrenaline Championship. Xander Valentine facing Selena Frost.”

Knots: “Giovanni Aries and James Evans. Rachel Tatum Lee and Brittany Lohan. Those are going to be fights.”

Sharper: “But of course, we’ll four new Hall of Famers in action, including our World Champion defending against Glory Braddock and Alistaire Allocco. And last night, we celebrated their careers here in Dallas and entered the Class of 2019 into the SCW Hall of Fame.”

The Rise to Greatness XVI logo comes up on the screen.

The SCW Hall of Fame logo comes up on the screen as we see David Helms up at the podium. This is followed by a shot of Jake Starr ziplining down to the stage from the side. We then see Jake Starr walking over to David Helms.

Starr: “...sorry I’m late.”

David Helms can be seen shaking his head.

Helms: “Ladies and gents, assholes and dudes all across the world, it’s our pleasure to induct Tommy Valentine into the SCW Hall of Fame, class of nineteen! TOMMY VALENTINE!”

We see Tommy Valentine stand on the stage as the crowd cheers. A shot of Kandis can be seen in the crowd before we see Tommy speaking at the podium.

Valentine: “This kid from North Carolina is now a man that is proud to be in the SCW Hall Of Fame and can finally say that ladies and gentlemen… The Hall Of Fame has finally reached that Next Level!”

We then see shots of Damian Angel posing in the ring before seeing him nailing CHBK with a superkick. Damian Angel is then next shown on the stage.

Damian: “I promise you that… this is not the pinnacle of Damian Angel. This is a catalyst to a new tomorrow.”

With that, Damian steps back from the podium, looking up to the heavens above him. He mouths inaudibly but sincerely…

“This is yours, Katherine. This is all yours.”

Without another word, Damian steps away from the stage. Following this is a shot of Ravyn Taylor and Syren posing in the ring before showing Ravyn Taylor hitting Merrick Wiseman with the Evolutionary Synthesis. Christy Matthews’ voice is heard.

Christy: “Ladies and gentlemen, please join me in welcoming the single most unique woman I’ve ever had the privilege of knowing, please welcome to the stage – and to the Hall of Fame – Ravyn Taylor.”

Ravyn Taylor can be seen smirking, pulling the microphone off the stand before looking around. Christy can be seen back on stage with her.

Christy: “Two-time, and longest reigning, SCW Television Champion. Final SCW Women’s Champion. One-time SCW Adrenaline Champion. SCW Supreme Champion. Taking Hold of the Flame winner. Rise to Greatness Main Event winner. Best of the Best runner-up. Female of the Year. Infamous founder. SCW Hall of Famer.”

Ravyn moves the microphone back in front of her own mouth.

Ravyn: “I’d brag, but I don’t need to anymore, because I have this. So now, I’ll just do this…”

She holds her hand up to the camera again to show off the ring.

Ravyn: “Quoth the Ravyn… the Hall of Famer… Forevermore.”

We then see CHBK walking out onto the stage. We then cut to show CHBK holding the ring on his finger, the SCW Hall of Fame ring.

CHBK: “Remember what this represents. Syren represents that. So, with that in mind, it is my distinct honour and privilege to welcome her into the SCW Hall of Fame. Ladies and gentlemen…SYREN!”

Syren is shown standing at the podium, the SCW World Championship placed on the podium. She looks around.

Syren: “Ever since the announcement that I’d be standing up here tonight I’ve been thinking about this moment…”

We cut to see Syren holding up the World Championship is slow motion.

Syren: “I remember, several years ago, hearing that one of the top guys was going home after he lost this title because ‘he’d done everything’, and I laughed, because this is SCW. You can’t EVER do EVERYTHING in this company. There’s always another challenge. There’s always another match. So, if you guys thought this was the end of me, then I’ve got some bad news. I’m not going anywhere.”

We then see Syren kissing the Hall of Fame ring.

Syren: “Be jealous, ok guys?”

Syren smiles as we see the SCW Hall of Fame logo come up on the screen.

We return to Fanfest to see El Lucha Venti walking through with a tray of coffees. El Lucha Grande is walking away from him, with his own tray. Venti speaks in Hungarian, we think, while Grande speaks in Italian, we also think. Venti hands one to a fan as the fan nods and laughs.

Sharper: “We’re even handing out free coffee to our fans here!”

Knots: “Are we okay with that?! Like are they safe?”

Sharper: “Ours were fine.”

Knots: “I didn’t have mine. I gave it to Gord. And you….well, you’d lick lard off the ground!”

Sharper: “You can get a bit of everything here at Fanfest and next, we’re going to get ourselves some number one contenders to the World Tag Team Championship!”

The scene fades to black.

COMMERCIALS

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall, has a thirty minute time limit, and is the finals of the Tag Team Contendership Tournament. First, on their way to the ring, from parts unknown, they are Ruby Amarant and Scarlet Grey, the Red Empire!”

Scarlet catches the lingering gaze of some of the fans and winking to them as Ruby just keeps her smile, pleased that Scarlet's enjoying herself.

REPLAY – EARLIER TONIGHT:

London forearms Scarlet in the jaw and then again and again. Paris heads over and grabs her and they whip her across the ring.

Sharper: “Earlier tonight, an upset to say the least. Red Empire defeating the Truelove Twins, the odds on favourite.”

Knots: “London and Paris had everything figured out. They were going to get rid of Scarlet and then go for Ruby, but Scarlet bought just enough time and Ruby did the one thing she needed to.”

Sharper: “London and Paris hit heads. Paris dazed and then the tights for good measure.”

Scarlet bounces off and Paris and London lift her up and hit a huge big back body drop. Scarlet rolls over, holding her back and London turns to Paris as Ruby runs up behind Paris, shoving her into London. London and Paris hit heads and London falls back through the ropes to the floor before Ruby rolls Paris up with a school boy and pulls on the tights!

The crowd roars and then boos as Ruby lets go and rolls toward Scarlet. Scarlet rolls over on the floor, holding her lower back.

Sharper: “And here we are. Red Empire is one win away from challenging for the World Tag Team Championship on the biggest night in wrestling.”

Knots: “Just gotta go through some former allies? Current allies? It’s not clear, but they’ve been helping each other out as of late. Is it just to get to this point? Or are we going to see them just break out into an orgy of red and something to give?”

Sharper: “What are you on?”

Knots: “Clearly not yet on pay per view if the latter thing happens!”

Phillips: “Their opponents, making their way to the ring, first, from Anaheim, California, she is Autumn Valentine! Her partner, from Sheffield, England, he is the Prodigal One, Ryan Watson. Together, they are Zero Chucks to Give!”

REPLAY – EARLIER TONIGHT:

Ember Young hoists Autumn up and goes for the Third Degree Burn. The crowd roars as Autumn struggles a bit and Ryan manages to get up and quickly hits a straight kick to the ribs. Ember drops Autumn and Autumn lands on her feet. She then steps forward and Ryan looks at her. They then look at Ember before Ryan goes low and Autumn goes high and they hit the Wedded Bliss!

Knots: “No Chucks now?! We’re not getting burgers or a Dependable now!”

Sharper: “In any case, Autumn and Ryan had to fight too to get here. But it capped off with the Wedded Bliss.”

Knots: “And I have to say it – that was damn close to the Twin Killing. I think they wanted to hit it knowing the Trueloves were knocked out. A lot of people wanted to take it to them. And here we are!”

Ash starts to get up on the floor and Autumn kicks through the ropes, knocking her back as Ryan goes for the pin, hooking the leg.

The crowd roars. Ryan rolls off. The Rise to Greatness Pre-Show logo comes up on the screen.

We open up to see Ryan Watson and Autumn Valentine in the ring.

Sharper: “And Zero Effs to Give, they have a unique other layer to this. They win and Ryan has to face someone he’s had a hand in training and mentoring in Kandis.”

Knots: “Plus both teams have a Valentine.”

Sharper: “Well yes.”

Knots: “What? This is the high level analysis most people get from wrestling programs. Gotta make SCW not look that much better! Plus, gotta save the A-stuff for tomorrow!”

Ruby and Scarlet talk a bit as Ryan steps out of the ring. Autumn starts as Ruby does for Red Empire. The crowd makes some noise as the bell sounds. Ruby and Autumn circle the ring and then move in and lock up in the middle of the ring. Autumn and Ruby push back on one another and Ruby ducks down and locks in an arm wrench. Autumn winces and looks around and rolls through. She then flips up and wrenches Ruby’s arm. Ruby winces in pain and grabs at Autumn. She then moves a bit, Autumn trying to figure out what Ruby is thinking before she spins underneath and spins through and into a hammerlock. Autumn grimaces and looks around before reaching up to the head of Ruby, but Ruby shakes her off before reaching over and grabbing the foot of Ruby and pulling it out from under her. Ruby pushes her off with her boot. Autumn runs into the ropes, bounces off and Ruby reaches up and rolls her into an inside cradle.

Autumn kicks out. Both get up and Autumn grabs Ruby by a side headlock. She then takes Ruby over with a takedown.

Sharper: “Autumn and Ruby jockeying back and forth here and Autumn, remember, was close with Ravyn Taylor and many people see a lot of similarities between Ruby and Ravyn.”

Knots: “Yeah. They’re both warped in the head and love to find new ways to show it. But Autumn is trying to just stay ahead of Ruby.”

Ruby rolls to his stomach as Autumn pulls back on her head. Ruby starts to get her feet under her. They get up to their feet. Ruby pulls Autumn back, but moves her toward Red Empire. She reaches out and blind tags Scarlet, before firing Autumn across the ring. Ruby steps forward and Autumn goes to nail her with a forearm. Ruby ducks and Scarlet enters and hits a drop toe hold. Autumn goes throat first into the middle rope. Ruby then turns and kicks her in the ribs. Autumn rolls over into the corner. Scarlet then stomps her in the ribs as Ruby exits. Scarlet stomps her a few more times before kneeing in with her knee.

Scarlet steps off and walks around. Autumn winces and grabs at the ropes. She slowly starts to pull herself up and Ruby nails her in the ribs. Autumn staggers back. She turns around and Scarlet hip tosses her over.

Sharper: “Red Empire just victimizing Autumn in the corner. A series of hard shots.”

Knots: “Ryan can just watch and this isn’t the start he wanted. Autumn Valentine getting bruised here as Scarlet and Ruby want that win.”

Sharper: “Both teams do, but Red Empire may be seeing this as their night. Scarlet surprisingly isn’t trying to get in Ryan’s head so you wonder if there is more here.”

Knots: “At one point, Scarlet was teaming with Kandis, so who knows. This could all just be friendly and the celebration after is going to be mindblowing!”

Scarlet runs into the ropes and bounces off and hits a running elbow drop. She goes for the pin.

Autumn kicks out. She rolls over and Scarlet grabs her, leaning over her, making sure to rub her chest in Autumn’s back before Scarlet knees her in the ribs. She then spins her around and sets up for a hangman’s neckbreaker. Autumn fights it off and gets free before hooking Scarlet’s arms and into a backslide.

Scarlet kicks out. Both get up and Autumn hits a dropkick. Scarlet hits the mat and Autumn turns and tags in Ryan. Autumn turns back to Scarlet and Scarlet goes for a hard right, but Autumn blocks it and then pulls her out into a monkey flip, but Scarlet goes up, and Ryan catches her into a sitout powerbomb!

Sharper: “Out of the monkey flip into a powerbomb!”

Knots: “Scarlet Grey going from red to black and blue from that one!”

Scarlet rolls her shoulder up. Ryan rolls through too and gets up. Scarlet stirs and Ryan hits an overhand chop to the chest. Ryan then whips her across. Scarlet bounces off and Ryan hits a back elbow. He jumps up and hits a big knee drop. Ryan goes for the pin.

Scarlet kicks out again. He gets up as Scarlet rolls over again. Ryan drags her up and turns and throws her into the neutral corner. Ryan walks over and leans in before whipping her across. Ryan turns and runs after and goes for a clothesline, but Scarlet moves out of the way. She runs along the ropes, tags in Ruby as she bounces off and Ryan turns and lifts Scarlet up and into a back drop onto the apron. Autumn runs along and stops her from attacking Ryan, throwing her arm back and nailing her with a forearm shot. Ryan steps up and Ruby hits a running dropkick. Ryan falls back and Ruby turns and nails Autumn with a forearm shot. Both her and Scarlet drop to the floor.

Sharper: “Ruby making it all count. Hard dropkick to Ryan. Forearm to the jaw of Autumn.”

Knots: “Couldn’t help Scarlet though. Ruby trying to protect her but not fast enough.”

Sharper: “Gotta focus on the ring though and Ruby is doing just that. She’s the legal woman for Red Empire!”

Ryan gets up and Ruby moves to the corner and runs out and hits a running bulldog. She rolls him over and hooks the leg.

Ryan kicks out. Both get up and Ruby runs into the ropes. She bounces off and Ryan goes for a clothesline. Ruby ducks and bounces off. Ryan turns and Ruby jumps up and grabs his head, locking in a guillotine choke with a bodyscissors. The crowd roars and boos. Ryan yells out in pain. Ruby keeps leaning back and Autumn looks up and tries to slide in, but Scarlet grabs her leg. Scarlet keeps pulling as Autumn reaches out, trying to get to Ryan, but can’t. Scarlet pulls her back out and forearms her before spinning her around and sending her into the steel steps. Ryan who had fallen to a knee, pushed up and then runs her into the corner before spinning around and counters with a sitout spinebuster.

Ruby kicks out as Scarlet slides into the ring. She gets up and Ryan rolls over and Scarlet then pushes him back into the corner. She just looks in his eyes and leans in, saying something to him. Scarlet leans forward, trying to clearly seduce Ryan, giving him a good look at her cleavage.

Sharper: “And look at Scarlet Grey! Trying to seduce Ryan Watson with Autumn across the ring!”

Knots: “She’s still down. Guess she sees this is her chance!”

Sharper: “She’s done this before. Trying to get into the head of her opponents and taking advantage of her looks!”

Autumn however slides into the ring as the official tries to get Scarlet back. Scarlet turns to him and smiles before Autumn runs over and nails Scarlet in the jaw with a hard right. The crowd roars. Scarlet hits the mat and rolls over. Autumn then turns back to Ryan and suddenly grabs him and pulls him in, giving him a passionate kiss. She then steps back and Ryan looks around before pointing to her and then to me before we see Ruby getting up and nailing Autumn from behind, sending her into Ryan.

Sharper: “Red Empire wanting to win however they can. Crimson Sunset on Autumn Valentine right in front of us!”

Knots: “Autumn is out. Red Empire have this. This may be their night!”

Sharper: “Scarlet Grey and Ruby Amarant doing anything to win tonight. Ryan and Autumn also showing their willingness to do whatever necessary. Ember and Ash showed it too. Even the Trueloves. All of these teams doing anything to walk out tonight the winners and to earn a title shot tomorrow night at Rise to Greatness!”

Scarlet turns back to Ryan and nails him with a forearm and then another and another. Ryan falls to the mat. Scarlet then steps back and hits a splits into a leg drop. The crowd ohs and Scarlet remains down for the pin.

Ryan then runs at her and Scarlet gets her knees up. Ryan staggers back and Scarlet runs over and jumps up and just hits a crossbody from behind, driving Ryan down. She rolls him over and goes for the pin.

Ryan kicks out. Ruby looks at Autumn who is still down. Ryan grabs at the ropes. Scarlet then walks over and grabs the arm. She wrenches it. She then starts to drag him as best as she can, trying to get to Ruby. Ruby extends her arm.

Sharper: “Ryan Watson in trouble.”

Knots: “His advantage right now is that his fat ass is more weight than anyone else. Scarlet has to literally drag him across.”

Sharper: “No longer trying to seduce. Now trying to win!”

Knots: “Well seducing was to win, Sharper. I know you don’t have much luck with the ladies and even Scarlet has standards!”

The crowd cheers for the conclusion as the bell sounds.

Phillips: “Here are your winners, via pinfall, and going on to challenge the SCW World Tag Team Champions tomorrow night, Ryan Watson and Autumn Valentine, Zero Chucks to Give!”

Sharper: “They may not have any chucks, but they have a World Tag Team Championship opportunity!”

Knots: “Watson and Valentine just overwhelming Red Empire at the end and now they face their friends…at least one friend in Kandis. I don’t know how they feel about Tommy.”

Sharper: “I’m sure we’ll find out. But they will have a chance to win some SCW gold. Their weekend is not done yet!”

Ryan gets up and helps Autumn up and they have their arm raised by the official. Autumn turns and leans in on Ryan and the two look around as Ryan smirks before we then see Kandis and Tommy Valentine walking out from the back and standing on the stage. Both hold the SCW World Tag Team Championships. Ryan turns and smirks as Kandis smirks back. Tommy doesn’t smirk, instead, just looking down at both. Autumn looks at Kandis and Tommy.

Sharper: “May find out now! The World Tag Team Champions taking a look at their opponents tomorrow night!”

Knots: “There’s your match folks. The Jackass and Big Ass Connection and Zero-“

Sharper: “You going to say it?”

Knots: “I’m saving it, Sharper! But two teams with swears in their name competing for the Tag Titles. What a time to be alive, in this, 2019, the year of our Lord!”

Sharper: “Good lord…”

Kandis and Tommy remain on the stage looking down as Ryan and Autumn watch them and we cut away.

Getting to the ring, Kelsai jumps from the floor to the ring apron before she steps through the ropes, reveals her simple all white attire, and goes to her corner. She puts on her smile, waving a bit before she gets ready for her match. Amy Chastaine walks around and goes to her corner.

Sharper: “This should be a treat. Two individuals that I think are the future of this company competing to cap off tonight here at SCW fanfest and the SCW Rise to Greatness Pre-show. Peyton wanting to face Kelsai and was able to keep her title until tonight.”

Knots: “Peyton wants to keep fighting for that title and Kelsai, she can focus on what should be a competitive match here. Meanwhile, in her corner is Amy Chastaine who has to be thinking about tomorrow night.”

Sharper: “I’m sure she is.”

The arena goes dark before a lone spotlight shines on the entrance. Suddenly the opening beats to “All The Days" by Mammoth play throughout the arena as Peyton Rice walks out in wrestling gear and jacket, her long dark blonde hair hanging down. The SCW Television Championship is around her waist. She looks around at the crowd before getting to one knee and making a line across the entrance.

The referee takes the SCW Television Championship and sets back and goes to raise it over his head. The SCW Television Championship logo comes across the screen and fades to the bottom corner.

Sharper: “Peyton Rice has been building a hell of a run. You wonder though if she is hurting from Breakdown, when Infamous attacked her.”

Peyton backs up and smiles a bit as Kelsai smiles back. Kelsai then walks out and Amy applauds a bit. The two continue to watch one another.
