“Supreme Championship Wrestling...”

 

A shot of Kelcey Wallace nailing Bree Lancaster with the Perfect Ending, followed by a shot of Steve Griffin hitting the Decimator off the top rope on CHBK at the first Rise to Greatness, before turning a shot of Jake Starr pumping up the crowd on his way to the ring, before turning into a shot of Ravyn Taylor sitting in the corner, waiting for the start of a match. We then see a shot of Katie Steward holding the Women’s Championship before cutting to a shot of Selena Frost hitting Vixen Cain with the Defying Gravity at Supreme Saturday: Just Desserts.

 

“The leading force in sports and entertainment today....”

 


 

 

MAIN SHOW:

 

 

We open up with a shot of the end of the World Championship match at End of the Year Special. Cookie Dreams and Selena Frost are both grabbing the SCW World Championship. Cookie lets go and Selena turns, stumbling with the title and nailing Holly in the face with it. She goes down, the facemask again taking the impact as Selena looks stunned as Holly is stunned. Demitra looks at her and shakes his head and turns and calls for the bell. The crowd boos. The bell sounds.

  

Sharper: “Selena hit Holly with the belt. Cookie let go!”

 

Lyman: “I don’t know if Cookie understands what she did!”

 

Selena looks at Holly as Demitra then turns and raises Holly’s arm.

 

Phillips: “Fans, as a result of a disqualification, here is your winner, Holly Adams! Still your SCW World Champion….Selena Frost!”

 

We then cut to see Holly hitting Selena with the Blonde Ambition. Selena hits the mat as the crowd ohs. Holly drops to her knees and then looks at the World Title. We cut to show her holding the World Title. We then cut to shots of Holly Adams holding the SCW World Championship.

 

Holly: “Ladies and gentlemen…I hope you’re used to this visual. Because this is what it SHOULD be.”

 

We then cut to shots of Selena Frost and Holly Adams fighting on Breakdown.

 

Selena: “You want some truth…the only truth going into Body, Heart and Soul is that you won. As much as that pains me…you won. And that faceplate is a problem. But I will have an answer for it and I will do everything I can to make sure your BRAND doesn’t get the World Championship! BELIEVE IT!”

 

We cut to more shots of Selena Frost fighting before showing shots of both holding the SCW World Championship before fading to black.

 

We cut to see the Body, Heart, and Soul logo come up on the screen.

 

“Supreme Championship Wrestling present…Body, Heart, and Soul 2022!”

 

The logo remains on the screen for a few moments longer before we cut to the inside of the Little Caesars Arena in Detroit, Michigan. The crowd cheers as pyro shoots off from the entrance set. After several seconds of pyro, spotlights circle the arena and the cameras pan across the crowd.

 

Sharper: “Welcome everyone to the first major event of 2022, Body, Heart, and Soul! Five titles on the line tonight, folks!”

 

The cameras continue to show shots of fans cheering and waving their signs, before cutting backstage.

 

Backstage, in the Go Position, we see Shaun Cruze talking to the four SCW officials.

 

Cruze: “Tonight, we’re going to change things up. Tonight, we’re going to start the trend of empowering you. You’re making the calls in the ring. You’re responsible for order and what you say goes. But we’re going to make sure that matches end decisively. If one of you goes down, caught in the moment…we’ll be ready to keep things going so nothing is missed. Aaron, want to add anything?”

 

Demitra: “No, except we’re going to do our best. We’ll miss things in the moment. We’re human, but we’re going to try and maintain order and knowing that we’ll be backed up by you Shaun…it feels good.”

 

Cruze: “We’re not going to be able to deal with every problem. Things are going to be chaotic. That’s the SCW way at times. But we are going to make sure that to the best of our abilities, people earn their wins and losses in SCW. And if people deserve to be disqualified or counted out, they are. Rules are rules for a reason. And to that end, I’ll add…since we’re being broadcast to the world…Tonight, Selena Frost defends against Holly Adams. Aaron, you’ve got that assignment. I will say this now, I’ve heard enough from Holly, and frankly, she has a point. If Selena Frost does something warranting a disqualification, Holly Adams will win the World Championship!”

 

The crowd roars.

 

Demitra: “Understood!”

 

Cruze: “Now let’s have a good night.”

 

The scene then cuts to ringside, where Adam Sharper, Jonathan Knots and Simon Lyman are at the announce table.

 

Sharper: “Well how about that. Shaun Cruze putting his stamp on things as commissioner. A bit more order.”

 

Knots: “Good luck.”

 

Sharper: “We’ll find out. Fans, welcome to ringside. Adam Sharper here with Simon Lyman and Jonathan Knots and big night tonight.”

 

Lyman: “Big night and now the World Championship match has even higher stakes. I’ll be curious what Holly and Selena will have to say. But now if Selena Frost gets disqualified, she’ll lose the World Championship.”

 

Sharper: “Maybe controversial. Meanwhile, as mentioned five titles on the line, including a massive Tag Team Championship shot. Lexy’s Angels face Team SU. And Jordan Majors, Brittany Lohan and Tommy Valentine look for revenge against Cid Turner while the Adrenaline Championship is on the line.”

 

Knots: “Cid…good luck. You may be getting your ass beat tonight!”

 

Owen Lee vs. Kandis

 

The opening of "Whore" by In This Moment fills the arena as red and pink lights swirl around...
 
{I'm the girl you've been thinking about, the one thing you can't live without
I'm the girl you've been waiting for
I'll have you down on your knees, I'll have you begging for more}
 
Along with Tommy Valentine, Kandis appears on the stage, a sultry smirk on her face as the crowd boos. She turns and shows off her notorious rear end, swaying it back and forth...
 
{I can be, I can be your eve... ry... thing}
 
The lights dim as the music seems to pause a moment, then Kandis turns around, arms spread and feet wide apart as vocalist Maria Brink shouts:
 
{I CAN BE YOUR WHORE!}
 
Tommy Valentine joins Kandis. Kandis starts down the ramp as the rest of the chorus continues, the sway in her hips ever present as she smirks at all the boos, even blowing sarcastic kisses to the crowd.
 
{I am the dirt you created
I am your sinner, I am your whore
But let me tell you something, baby
You love me for everything you hate me for}
 
Kandis goes up the ring steps and enters the ring through the second and top rope slowly, making sure to show off her ass. The heavy music fades out as Kandis goes to her corner. Tommy heads to the corner too.
 
Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, accompanied to the ring by Tommy Valentine, she is…Kandis!”
 
The opening rifts to ‘Here we Go’ by Chris Classic blasts through the PA, as mist fills the entranceway. The music stops, a huge explosion rocks the entranceway and Owen jumps, seemingly through the floor and landing on his feet, dropping to one knee and punching the floor
 
“I been more than ready
Preppin' heavy
For this day to come”
 
Owen gets to his feet, and looks left and right at the reaction he is getting, a look of focus and determination on his face as Daisy Lee walk out from the back, and stands behind him
 
“And so now nothing can stop me
I just grind and work
Yeah yeah, you know the motto
You know we goin' hard cause we might never see tomorrow”
 
He begins the walk down to the ring, slapping the hand of anyone who offers, before sliding in and under the bottom rope as Daisy walks around the ring, and walks up the steps, bending through the strands.
 
“I keep my eye on the fakes and got real from it
Mastered patience and free will from it
That's the real motivation some people kill for it
I keep reachin' for greatness because I'm built from it”
 
Owen points to the turnbuckle and then runs towards it, bouncing on the middle ropes and back flipping backwards, landing on both feet.
 
“Here we go
Give it a 100 never nothin' less
Here we go
We comin', you already know the rest
Here we go
We never settle 'cause we know it best
Who wanna test? Who?
Leave you outta breath”
 
Owen pulls on the top rope a couple of time, stretching out as his music fades. He then walks over to Daisy for some last-minute words.
 
Phillips: “And her opponent, accompanied to the ring by Daisy Lee…he is…Owen! Lee!”
 
The ref calls for the bell. Owen and Kandis step out of their corners. They circle one another before Owen attempts to initiate a tie-up.
 
Sharper: “Owen looking to lock up in the opening moments of the match.”
 
Kandis looks like she is going to tie-up before connecting with a forearm, followed by a second, and then a third, staggering Owen.
 
Lyman: “And Kandis showing she’s got no interest in doing so.”
 
Knots: “There’s a lot of bad blood between these two if you haven’t noticed.”
 
Kandis backs Owen into the ropes before whipping him across. Owen bounces of the ropes and Kandis goes for a clothesline, but Owen dunks under. Owen gets back to his feet before taking Kandis down with a dropkick once she turns around. He goes for the cover.
 
1!
 
Kandis kicks out.
 
Sharper: “Owen with a quick count of one.”               
 
Owen pulls Kandis to her feet, only for Kandis to hit a European uppercut before she grabs Owen and connects with a snap suplex. Kandis goes for her own cover.
 
1!
 
2!
 
Owen powers out. Kandis rolls over and locks him into a side headlock.
 
Lyman: “Kandis with a two count, and now, she’s got Owen grounded.”
 
Knots: “I think a lot of people forget about the power Kandis has.”
 
Sharper: “You could be right, partner.”
 
Kandis wrenches down on the headlock, as Owen tries to break the hold. Owen then swings his feet before beginning to push up, taking him and Kandis off the mat. Owen then hooks Kandis and takes her back down to the mat with a belly to back suplex.
 
Kandis hits the mat, but quickly gets to her feet, only for Owen to connect with a spinning heel kick, sending Kandis into the ropes. Kandis bounces off and Owen grabs her before planting Kandis with a lifting inverted DDT. He then goes for another cover.
 
1!
 
2!
 
Kandis kicks out. Owen grabs Kandis only for Kandis to grab him and drop down, driving her head into his chin. Owen staggers back, as Kandis fires away with another forearm, followed by a second, backing him into the ropes. Kandis goes to whip Owen across, but he blocks it then pulls her close, going for a lariat, but Kandis dunks down, and connects with a spear.
 
Kandis picks Owen up and whips him into the corner. She follows up with a running clothesline, before driving her shoulder into his ribs. Kandis takes a step back, lifting her leg, and choking Owen with her foot, earning herself some boos from the crowd. The referee begins the count.
 
Ref: “1….2….3….4….”
 
Kandis breaks the hold and steps back as Owen stumbles out of the corner.
 
Sharper: “Kandis almost getting herself disqualified.”
 
Lyman: “I don’t think she wants to do that, but she’ll bend the rules a little bit, as long as she can hurt Owen.”
 
Kandis clubs Owen in the back before hooking him and hitting Owen with a belly to back suplex. Kandis goes for another cover.
 
1!
 
2!
 
Owen shoots the shoulder up.
 
Knots: “Owen still in this.”
 
Kandis pulls Owen up, and goes to whip him into the corner, but Owen reverses then pulls her into a short arm lariat. Kandis rolls over and gets to her feet, only for Owen to run over and leap up, before taking her down with a hurricanrana. Kandis hits the mat, before pushing herself back up. Owen charges into and off the ropes, leaping into the air, only for Kandis to catch him.
 
Sharper: “Look at the strength of Kandis.”
 
Kandis lets out a yell before connecting with a fall away slam. Kandis then hooks the leg.
 
1!
 
2!
 
3…No! Owen kicks out!
 
Lyman: “I think Kandis has taken everyone by surprise here tonight.”
 
Knots: “She’s fighting on her own, which is a nice change of pace.”
 
Sharper: “Let’s not forget Owen, however. He’s still in this fight.”           
 
Kandis gets to her feet then pulls Owen, who fires away with another European uppercut, then a knife edge chop. Owen then connects with a step up enziguri.
 
Sharper: “Owen changing the momentum, topping it off with the move he calls Rehabilitation.”
 
Kandis sinks into the ropes before bouncing back and going for a clothesline. Owen dunks under, only for Kandis to spin around and connect with a spinning back fist. Kandis goes for another forearm, but Owen dunks under, pulling her down to the mat with an Okana roll. The ref makes the count.
 
1!
 
2!
 
Sharper: “Is Owen going to pull it off?”
 
Kandis manages to reverse the pin attempt into her own roll-up.
 
Lyman: “Kandis reversed just in the nick of time.”
 
1!
 
2!
 
Knots: “But can she keep Owen down…”
 
3!!!
 
Phillips: “Here is your winner via pin fall, Kandis!”
 
“Whore” begins to play as Owen rolls out of the ring and joins Daisy, with Tommy joining Kandis in the ring. Kandis looks at Owen before smirking as she begins to celebrate with Tommy. Owen is shown talking to Daisy before the cameras show more of Kandis’ celebration, and then we cut to the back.

 

Sharper: “Let’s now go backstage to Jessica Winters who is standing by with our challenger for the SCW World Championship tonight.”

 

Jessica Winters stands next to Holly Adams who is smiling smugly outside of the Brand’s locker room. Jessica and Holly are also surrounded by the Real Housewives Camera Crew.

 

Winters: “Thank you Adam. I am here with Holly Adams and Holly, you heard the news. If Selena Frost is disqualified tonight, she will lose not only the match, but you will be named World Champion-“

 

Holly: “Finally! Finally someone has seen through her act. She intentionally hit me with the title, frustrated that I was just that much better than her at End of the Year Special. I said that I would be World Champion and this all but ensures it. There’s no way she can spin this. People are seeing through her act. Heck, even Shaun Cruze can, and he’s a Cruze. Think about that. I mean he thought someone was PERFECT?! And it’s not me? Please!”

 

Holly shakes her head.

 

Holly: “Get ready for tonight. Tonight, no more ways out to weasel out Selena. Holly Adams, World Champion! Get ready!”

 

Winters: “Thank you Holly for your thoughts. I’ll try to catch up with the World Champion later-“

 

Holly: “Oh don’t bother. Everything she says are lies!”

 

Holly turns and returns to the locker room as Winters turns back to the back.

 

Winters: “Back to ringside.”

 

Cassidy Carter vs. Polly Playtime vs. Crystal Zdunich

 

DING! DING! DING!

Phillips:  “The following contest is a triple threat match scheduled for one fall.  Introducing first, from Los Angeles, California, she is The Burning Rose… Crystal Zdunich!”

The entire arena fades completely black.  After a few moment’s Crystal’s voice can be heard loud and clear.

“YOUR SMILE MAKES MY HEART EXPLODE.  THANK YOU FOR WAKING ME UP!”

Flame pyros light up on the stage and an explosion is heard before “Smile Bomb” by 17thekid begins to play.  Crystal comes out alone and just looks stoically at the empty ring in front of her.  She clearly ignores the fans in the audience which garnishes a lot of boos, but she does not seem to care at all.

Sharper:  “What more is there to say?  This is definitely a triple threat match where all three ladies are at a crossroads in their wrestling careers.  We have definitely seen the tenacity and the willingness to go over the edge from Crystal in recent weeks.  She has been looking to make an impact here in SCW, being she has had so much success prior to coming here.”

Knots:  “That’s just it though.  This is the Land of the Supreme and you have to be more than just yourself.  You HAVE to be desperate.  I would know that more than most Adam.”

Sharper:  “I do as well.”

Crystal walks to the ring with much vigor and purpose.  She runs up the stairs and up to the apron before ducking under the middle rope and climbing fully into the ring.  She flicks her hair but does not do her signature split, which gets more boos from the crowd.  Crystal chooses a corner, sheds her hoodie and leaves it laying on the ring apron before just looking down at the canvas, seemingly studying it hard.

A coin can be heard dropping into a coin slot and then the words “START GAME” show up on SCW’s Jumbotron.  A bunch of girls can be heard giggling for a few seconds before they are abruptly cut off.  It’s only a few seconds before the beginning of “How Far I’ll Go” by Auli’i Cravalho begins to play.

The music plays but it is not until it comes to the chorus that Polly emerges from the backstage area wearing a frilly black skirt with a matching black strapless crop top.  She holds on the stage for a bit, looking around quite nervously which gets a mixed reaction from the crowd.  The younger males still cat-call and whistle but that just seems to make her more nervous.  Eventually she shakes it off and turns her attention to the ring. 

The mixed reactions continue as she arrives down at the ringside area.  She walks up the steel steps and into the ring and is very careful to not show off any of her assets.

Phillips:  “And Crystal’s opponents, first, from Panguitch, Utah, she is the girl that LOVES to play… Polly Playtiiiime!!!”

Polly turns to him and is clearly saying “No”.  He looks at her oddly before shrugging his shoulders.  Polly turns away and looks over at a familiar face in Crystal Zdunich.  She nods at Crystal and Crystal sneers back.

Knots:  “Talk about someone that has far more issues than Crystal has.  That’s definitely Polly.  She has had a lot of out-of-ring stuff to deal with and it has clearly gotten to her.  She has had several title opportunities as of late and has fallen short in all of them.”

Sharper:  “That is true.  She has shown the desire, the passion, and that she has the skill set to be big here in SCW, but much like Crystal, she just can’t break through the glass ceiling that she clearly wants to shatter.  Her nerves don’t look too good tonight either.”

Lyman:  “I would like to chime in to say that even though she has fallen short quite a bit, she has had some impressive moments.  She has been taking on the caliber of Jordan Majors and Owen Lee and almost took down both of them.  I know close only counts in horseshoes and whatnot, but it will happen for her one day.”

Sharper:  “You’ve wrestled in that ring.  You should know when promising talent is in there.”

Lyman:  “That I do.”

Polly and Crystal do not take their eyes off one another, definitely due to what happened on the past Breakdown, and the fact that they have faced off in a wrestling ring before in years past.  Polly’s music fades out.

The lights in the arena go dark for a moment, and the crowd hushes in anticipation.  After a few moments, the baseline to "Bad Guy" by Billie Eilish begins thumping through the speakers. The arena fills with a mixture of boos and cheers.  As Billie's voice begins singing, low red lights begin flashing in time with the rhythm.

Phillips:  “And their opponent, from Las Vegas, Nevada… Cassidy Carterrr!!”

White shirt now red, my bloody nose 
Sleeping, you're on your tippy toes 
Creeping around like no one knows 
Think you're so criminal 

Cassidy's face appears on the big screen, blood streaming down her nose as she flashes a sadistic smile before her face disappears and her name flashes across the screen in blood red letters.  The red lights keep flashing. 

Bruises, on both my knees for you 
Don't say thank you or please 
I do what I want when I'm wanting to 
My soul? So cynical

White strobes begin flashing as Cassidy appears in the entryway.  The crowd is louder now, mostly booing Cassidy, but there are a few audible cheers mixed in.  Cassidy is wearing a black hooded sweatshirt with the hood up and "Bad Guy" sprayed on the back in red spray paint,and a pair of mirrored aviator sunglasses.  She pauses, taking a deep breath before she begins walking down the ramp, ignoring the fans.  She looks straight forward as she comes to the end of the ramp and climbs up the stairs.  She moves right to the ropes, ducking under the top rope as she enters the ring and walks straight to one of the two remaining empty corners, passing right by both Polly and Crystal, blatantly ignoring their staring contest.  She leans against the ropes in her corner and just waits. 

The bell rings and all three now look at one another.  Crystal immediately goes towards Polly and Polly looks very accepting of the offer.  The two begin to throw some punches, picking up right where they had left off at the last Breakdown backstage.  Cassidy shrugs her shoulders and smirks, slipping down and out of the ring.  She goes to the crowd barrier and steals a fan’s bucket of popcorn right from out of his hands and begins to eat it.

Back in the ring Polly rears back and throws a punch that has a lot of anger behind it which teeters Crystal.  Polly takes advantage and throws herself forward, putting Crystal down to the mat.  Polly’s nervousness from earlier seems to have washed away as she tees off on Crystal.  The referee goes to try and get Polly off but Polly keeps raining down the punches, clearly having a lot of anger pent up inside her.

The referee starts to go for a five-count but Polly finally does roll off of Crystal once she hears the three.  She then grabs Crystal’s right arm but Crystal, even though she’s down on the mat, is able to cut out Polly’s legs with a leg sweep from the canvas, bringing Polly down to a knee.  Crystal gets up some now and kicks Polly right in the forehead, knocking Polly down flat.  Crystal goes for a cover which Cassidy sees.  She shoves the bucket of popcorn back at the fan and goes to get into the ring to break up the cover.

1!

2!

Polly kicks out before Cassidy can even get there.

Sharper:  “Snacking while competing in a match folks?  Not a good idea.  Cassidy could have had a loss added to her record without even interjecting into the match.”

Knots:  “She would be the one crazy enough to allow that to happen.  Looks like she wants a piece of the action now though.”

Cassidy rolls in and grabs Crystal, tossing her away from Polly.  Cassidy then goes to pull Polly up, but Polly blocks and goes for an armdrag takeover.  She struggles a little but does get Cassidy up and over.  Cassidy lands on her feet behind Polly, but Polly can sense Cassidy coming up from behind her and sidesteps an attempted forearm smash.  Cassidy grunts out loud.  Polly seems to be slowly building confidence.  Cassidy comes at Polly again but Polly calmly takes a charging Cassidy down with a short-arm clothesline.  Cassidy gets right back to her feet and Polly gets her with another one.

Crystal is back up now and looks to be going to grab Polly by the hair for a hair toss but Polly whirls Cassidy around and Crystal gets Cassidy by the hair, tossing Cassidy down to the canvas.  Polly backs up a step and points to her brain.  Crystal scoffs and keeps her attention on Polly.  The two once again go after one another, leaving the third wheel to recover on the canvas.

Crystal reaches out and grabs Polly and attempts to get her up and over with a snapmare, but they are very close to the ropes.  As Crystal gets Polly up in the air, Polly is able to grab a hold of the ropes and hold on.  She is able to get her legs wrapped around Crystal’s head and then fly off with a beautiful headscissors takeover which puts Crystal down on the mat.  Polly’s eyes go wide as she positions herself to go to cover Crystal.  The referee is right on it.

1!

2!

Crystal weakly kicks out.

Sharper:  “That might have just been on instinct alone, kicking out like that.  Polly looked nervous at the beginning due to past happenings, but clearly her nervousness is gone.”

Lyman:  “I have to admit it.  That headscissors takeover was textbook.”

Polly does not give up though or even look at the referee.  She pulls Crystal up and goes to line her up for a Chick Kick but Cassidy is up and hops right in between where Polly is and intercepts Polly’s Chick Kick, grabbing Polly by the right foot.  Cassidy has a weird gleam in her eyes as she pushes hard on Polly.  Polly is off-balance and Cassidy wraps up Polly, taking her down with her patented slingshot DDT.  Polly rolls around on the canvas and Cassidy goes to cover.

Knots:  “Oof!  Caught with The Fall From Grace.”

1!

2!

It’s Polly’s turn to kick out before the count of 3.  Polly groans and rolls away from Cassidy.  Cassidy goes to go after her but Crystal is back in play and gets Cassidy from behind, Irish whipping her to the far side of the ring.  Crystal runs at her after springboarding herself off the side ropes.  She pancakes Cassidy in the corner quite hard.  With Cassidy dazed, Crystal picks her up and puts her on the top of the turnbuckle.  Crystal ascends to the middle rope and begins to punch Cassidy in the gut a few times.  Cassidy returns fire with a few punches of her own.  Crystal goes up to the top rope, which is when Cassidy bares her teeth and fakes an attempt to bite Crystal.  Crystal gets angry with this and simply shoves Cassidy off the top rope and down to the floor, by shoving her right in the face!  The crowd ohs as Cassidy lands on the padded floor outside, back first thankfully.

While Cassidy rolls around on the floor after feeling the impact of her fall, Crystal smirks now, showboating the way she knows how.  Meanwhile Polly has taken this entire time to recover in the far corner.  She has groggily come back to both her feet, but upon seeing Crystal up on the far top rope showboating, she shakes her head, sighing.

Polly quietly heads over to that corner, sneaking up on Crystal as the crowds boos turn to cheers.  Polly yanks Crystal’s legs and brings her down off the ropes, crashing right down to the canvas.  Crystal looks pissed on the mat now, but Polly doesn’t give her the chance to get back up.  She immediately goes to lock in a camel clutch.  Crystal can sense it coming though and blocks it.  She moves around and grabs a hold of the ropes and begins to pull herself up.  Polly lets her pull herself up but as Crystal does Polly hops up onto the nearest middle rope and connects with a somersault, knocking Crystal back down to the mat.

Knots:  “That’s the Downplay.  I think this one’s over guys.”

Polly looks determined as she looks down at Crystal.  She closes her eyes for a brief moment before reopening them and running right at Crystal.  Polly lifts her right foot up and nails Crystal on the top of the head, curb stomping it into the canvas.

Lyman:  “Head Turner!  When you’re right Jon, you’re right.”

Polly gets down and rolls Crystal over.

1!

2!

3!!!

DING! DING! DING!

The referee calls for the bell.  Polly stands up and gets her arm raised.  The crowd does cheer some as Polly is again looking around the entire arena.  She doesn’t seem to find anything bad in her eyes, so she puts out a little bit of a smile before looking down at Crystal.  The referee lets go of Polly’s arm and Polly nods at him before rolling out of the ring.  Cassidy is back up now and looks over at Polly, rolling her eyes.  Polly doesn’t look back though and simply heads for the ramp.  When she gets to the camera stationed near the stage she says only a few words.

Polly:  “How’s that for passion?  Clearly I have more body, heart and soul than you do.  You lost Owen.  I won.”

Seemingly her old playful self for a few moments, she blows a kiss to the camera before heading to the back.

 

Sharper: “Again, let’s go backstage to Jessica Winters who is standing by with the SCW World Champion, Selena Frost!”

 

Backstage, Jessica Winters stands with Selena Frost and Deanna Frost in their locker room.

 

Winters: “Thank you Adam. Selena, you heard the announcement. I’m sure you’ve also heard Holly’s comments-“

 

Selena: “Nothing surprising there.”

 

Winters: “But what was is that Shaun Cruze has apparently met her with a demand we’ve been hearing from her since Breakdown which is that if you get disqualified, you’ll lose the title.”

 

Selena: “I’d be upset normally. That situation at End of the Year Special with Cookie Dreams…Well, that was in the past. Holly Adams can talk a lot. But I have been also saying for all of last year and going into this year…my focus is one thing…the integrity of the SCW World Championship. The title means the best wrestler in the world. Period. And I think I can live up to that mantle. But we’ve had too much controversy. Simply put, I’m not worried because I don’t plan to do anything that will get me disqualified. Trust me…I hate Holly Adams. But I’m able to operate in the limits of a wrestling match to get the victory that matters and that’s beating her in the middle of the ring and retaining my World Championship. Believe it!”

 

Winters: “Thank you Selena. And good luck tonight. Back to ringside.”

 

The scene cuts away.

 

Konrad Raab vs. Lucas Knight

SCW Underground Championship

 

“Violence Fetish” by Disturbed plays over the sound system as Konrad Raab comes out through the curtain, acting erratic with an angry look on his face, wearing red and black face paint on the right side of his face with a red and black suit hoodie over his head he wears with pieces of ice blood designed all over them. He also has a penguin, walrus and a polar bear stitching on the left-hand side of his chest on his gear, stating Stop Climate Change. He also wears black boots along with Red and Black Gloves on his hands before he crouches down on the floor, looking at the ring with evil intentions. He rises up and slowly walks to the ring with a massive amount of boos.

 

Phillips: “The following contest is an Underground Rules match scheduled for onefall and is for the SCW Underground Championship! Introducing first, the challenger, from Cologne, Germany, he is ‘The Ice Blood’ Konrad Raab!”

 

Sharper: “Big opportunity here for Konrad Raab, facing a man he’s had a lot of run ins with over the last several months.”

 

Knots: “Not just a big opportunity, but one he’s been babbling about for years!”

 

Lyman: “Right, Konrad has been waiting for a singles title match for years at this point. He got his chance. Time to see if he’ll seize the moment.”

 

Konrad runs up the steps and goes underneath the ropes. As he's in the ring, Konrad without showing any sign of acknowledgement from the fans sits in the corner of the ring with the crowd booing him, having a nasty look in his eyes, flicking his fists as if he's already ready to fight, waiting for the match to start as he takes his hoodie off from his head while his music slowly fades out.

 

Knots: “Won’t be an easy task facing this man!”

 

Out go the lights with a flick of a switch as all eyes focus onto the stage, just then the screen lights up as the opening to “Alpha King” by Rev Theory begins to play over the P.A. system. Then and only then we see a series of words in italic writing phase in and out on the big screen...

 

.Infamous.

 

.British.

 

.Legendary.

 

Spotlights all start to focus on the stage entrance now changing colours, shades of red, white and blue and during that time a silhouette of a man can be seen walking out onto the stage with a familiar aura of confidence. Just then the final words explode onto the tron causing the crowd to react accordingly as the music hits into full swing...

 

.LUCAS KNIGHT.

 

The crowd's cheers fill the arena as the lights come back on fully to show Lucas Knight standing on the stage looking at the crowd, he wears a black and white military style jacket with the union jack emblazoned on it, his cricket bat resting against his shoulder, and the SCW Underground Championship around his waist. He looks out to the crowd with a smirk and nods. He twirls the cricket bat and begins his walk down to the ring with a confident swagger in his step.

 

Phillips: “And his opponent, from London, England by way of Santa Monica, California, he is the SCW Underground Champion, ‘The Alpha King’ Lucas Knight!”

 

Sharper: “Lucas Knight, cricket bat in hand. Before the Underground Championship even made its surprising return here in SCW, we saw Raab and Knight clash in an Underground Rules match some months ago.”

 

Lyman: “And as you mentioned, Adam, that cricket bat. It came into play in that match with Lucas using it to apply a crossface, making Konrad eventually tap out. Guaranteed, Lucas will be looking to catch him with that once again here tonight.”

 

Knight slides under the bottom rope and quickly scales one corner and looks out to the crowd with another smirk as he now removes his jacket and hangs it over the steep post. He unfastens the Underground Championship and takes it in his hand. He looks out to the crowd and holds up the cricket bat and the belt to a round of cheers. With a smirk, he drops down to the mat. However, right when he turns, Raab rushes at him! Raab goes for a clothesline, but Knight ducks it. Raab crashes into the corner. On the rebound, he turns and gets clobbered in the gut with Knight’s cricket bat! The crowd roars. Raab doubles over and falls to his hands and knees while Knight’s music abruptly cuts out. 

 

Sharper: “Oh, and Raab! He went for a sneak attack!”

 

Lyman: “Backfiring quickly. Lucas was ready.”

 

Knight casually hands the Underground Championship to the referee, who signals for the bell while handing the belt off outside. The crowd continues to cheer as Knight drops down and tries to apply the cricket bat assisted crossface!

 

Sharper: “Now going for the crossface early!”

 

Raab quickly scrambles away. He staggers to his feet while nursing his ribs. Knight gets back to his feet and swings at Raab, but Raab ducks it, ending up behind Knight. Raab throws his leg forward to low blow Knight from behind! The crowd ohs as Knight drops the bat to the mat and falls to his knees, cradling the goods.

 

Knots: “But Konnie with a classic nut shot!”

 

Raab picks Knight up from behind and hooks him with a waistlock. Before he can do anything, Knight throws his leg back, catching Raab right back with a low blow! The crowd ohs once again before cheering as Raab stumbles back, falling on his backside against the ropes. Knight takes a moment to catch his wind while still nursing his groin.

 

Lyman: “And Lucas with one right back at him! Zero time wasted from either man showing the audience that this match has no rules.”

 

Knight gets up and goes after Raab, but Raab rolls to the outside, falling to the mats. The crowd boos. Knight rolls out and sees Raab crawling under the ring. Knight grabs Raab’s leg and begins yanking Raab out from underneath the ring. After some effort, Knight slides Raab out, but Raab suddenly clocks him in the head with an unseen object! The object explodes into a white cloud on impact. The crowd ohs as Knight stumbles back, falling onto the ramp. Raab gets to his feet and raises the object up, revealing a broken glass light tube in his hands. The crowd boos.

 

Knots: “Light tubes are back!”

 

Sharper: “We saw Raab deal with those against Cassidy Carter at the End of the Year Special. It looks like it’s just given him more ideas to use here against Lucas!”

 

Raab throws the light tube down, shattering the rest of it. He goes back under the ring and pulls out a roll of a handful of light tubes bound together by a strip of tape, one obviously missing from the pack. The referee slides out of the ring to follow the action, looking taken aback from the reveal.

 

Knots: “And he’s got a whole bundle of them!”

 

Raab holds them together and wields them not unlike a cricket bat in his hands. Knight slowly gets up, some light fragments of glass and blood on his face. Raab runs at him and swings the tubes, but Knight dodges to the side. Raab turns and immediately gets a right hand to the face. He drops the tube roll, letting it roll down the ramp. Knight hits Raab with another right before catching him and throwing him back with an exploder suplex onto the ramp! Raab almost flips forward from the impact, immediately jolting up and holding his back while wincing.

 

Sharper: “A sharp suplex from Knight, getting back on top here!”

 

Lyman: “And they’re outside now, all of these moves do more damage on something as unforgiving as that ramp. You can even see Lucas feeling it a bit.”

 

Knight holds his back a bit as he gets to his feet. He eyes the light tube roll before seeing Raab slowly stirring. Knight runs forward and boots Raab in the backside, sending him flying headfirst into the barricade. The nearby crowd roars insults towards Raab while cheering on Knight, who walks over and shares a few inaudible words with the nearby audience while he lifts Raab back up. Knight hooks Raab from the side before throwing him back with a Russian legsweep into the barricade! The crowd continues to support Knight as he gets on top of Raab for the cover.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Raab kicks out and rolls away.

 

Sharper: “Only our first pinfall here.”

 

Lyman: “I think both men know that neither will go down easy. It’ll take some good offense. If there’s one thing we’ve learned from this division, it’s that its competitors have a lot of fight.”

 

Knight gets up and spots Raab crawling towards the light tube roll. He jolts over and stomps on Raab’s hand. Raab cries out and rolls away again while holding his fingers. Knight heads for the apron and pulls up the ring skirt, quickly taking out a steel chair. The crowd roars. 

 

Sharper: “Lucas with the chair. Remember how he won that title, battering Kimberly Williams with a chair.”

 

Raab pulls himself up at the nearby ringpost. Knight swings at him, but Raab ducks. The sound of steel on steel rings out as the chair smashes into the post. Knight winces and drops the chair to shake his hands out. Raab turns the corner and stumbles along the ramp. Knight picks the chair back up and goes after him, swinging once again but again coming up empty as Raab hops over the steel steps, resulting in the chair smashing into the steps. Raab stumbles towards the announcer’s desk while Knight turns the corner. As Knight gets closer, Raab suddenly flings off the top of the announcer’s table, successfully catching Knight in the face. Knight stumbles back and Raab charges him, tackling him right into the steel steps! The crowd ohs as Knight crumples to the ground, the chair being tossed to the side. Raab quickly covers Knight.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Knight rolls a shoulder up right after two. He turns onto his front side and grinds his fist into the mats, seemingly in pain. Raab spots the chair and grabs it while getting back to a vertical base. He swings the chair down onto Knight’s back. Knight rolls over and arches his back, only to see the chair coming down once again. He dodges it at the last second, rolling out of the way and returning to his feet. He charges at Raab and hits him with a big boot. Raab stumbles back against the announcer’s table, still maintaining his grip on the chair while dazed.

 

Knots: “Bit too close for comfort here!”

 

Knight runs forward again, but Raab holds the chair out to jab Knight in the ribs! Knight falls to a knee while holding his midsection. Raab tosses the chair to the side and lifts Knight up, drilling him with a European uppercut. Knight almost falls back, but instead Raab holds him up, suddenly grabbing him by the throat. Raab hoists him up and turns in the air, driving Knight through the announcer’s table with The Iceinator! The crowd roars as the announce team scrambles away.

 

Sharper: “Lord, right here in front of us! Raab just drove Knight right through the table with that vicious chokeslam!”

 

Raab crawls over the rubble and covers Knight.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Knight kicks out just in time, rolling off the rubble and into the roller chairs lined up for the announcers. Raab angrily roars before getting up and going towards the ring, once again going underneath it.

 

Sharper: “And Konrad Raab just nearly became a champion!”

 

Lyman: “Still some work to do yet, and he’s right back at it.”

 

Raab pulls out a table and immediately begins setting it up.

 

Knots: “One wasn’t enough apparently!”

 

Knight pulls himself up using a nearby roller chair. Raab finishes setting the table up and turns to grab Knight, dragging him over the table debris. Knight keeps a grip on the roller chair, bringing it with him. 

 

Knots: “My chair, Lucas! That’s my chair!”

 

Raab clubs him in the back to break his grip before hooking him from behind with a waistlock.

 

Sharper: “Maybe looking for The Frozen Pin through the table!”

 

Raab tries to hoist Knight up, but Knight blocks the attempt by planting his leg behind Raab’s. Knight throws an elbow back, catching Raab in the head. Raab stumbles back and leans against the table. Knight steps forward and grabs the nearby roller chair before immediately firing it at Raab! Raab ducks at the last second, sending the chair into the ropes, onto the apron, and tumbling down to the floor.

 

Knots: “My chair!”

 

Raab goes for a right hand, but Lucas blocks it and counters with one of his one. He jolts forward and plows into Raab with a European uppercut. Raab staggers back into the post. He turns the corner and slides into the ring. Knight follows, but doesn’t notice Raab brandishing the cricket bat. Knight gets up, only to get drilled in the head with the bat! The crowd ohs as Knight falls right back down.

 

Sharper: “Finally returning to the ring, but Raab just used Knight’s own weapon against him!”

 

Raab drops down for the cover and barks at the referee, who’s still getting into the ring. They slide over for the count.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Knight kicks out at the last second. The crowd roars as Raab gets up and screams at the referee. Knight rolls over and clutches the bottom rope, resting his body on it. We see blood trickling down his forehead while Raab continues to berate the official.

 

Sharper: “Lucas cut now while Raab letting the referee have it.”

 

Lyman: “Lucas showed some blood from that light tube shot earlier, but more of a gash now. Still not giving up though.

 

Raab storms away from the referee and rolls back outside towards the ramp. He picks up the light tube bundle and rolls right back into the ring. He rips a tube from the bundle and sets the rest up in the corner, standing up against the turnbuckles. He takes the single tube and breaks it in half over his knee, making two broken halves with jagged edges. He tosses one half to the side and slowly walks over to Knight.

 

Knots: “And Konnie’s got murder on the mind!”

 

Sharper: “Coming at Knight with that broken tube!”

 

Raab drags Knight off of the bottom rope, into the middle of the ring. Knight turns over and looks up at Raab, who brings the tube over his head with both hands, the jagged end facing down towards Knight. Just before Raab goes to bring it down on him, Knight throws his leg up, hitting Raab with a low blow! The crowd roars. Raab falls on top of Knight, straddling him and dropping the tube from his hands. Knight reacts quickly and picks the broken tube up before driving it into Konrad’s forehead! Knight reaches up and uses his other arm to grab Raab by the neck and pull him closer, just grinding the tube into Raab’s face! The crowd ohs while Raab cries out in pain.

 

Sharper: “Oh, but Lucas! Lucas turning the tables!”

 

Knight rips the tube out of Raab’s face before smashing it over his head. The tube explodes into dust and Raab falls back, holding his face. Knight rolls on top of him for the cover.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Raab breaks free and scrambles up, quickly pulling himself up using the ropes. He leans against them while wiping his face, revealing blood starting to leak over his face and face paint. Knight pushes himself up and grabs Raab from behind, immediately hooking him in an inverted headlock and transitioning into Hail Britannia! He goes for a quick cover.

 

1!

 

2!

 

Raab once again kicks out, this time only just. Knight wastes no time, getting to his feet and bringing Raab along with him.

 

Sharper: “Another nearfall, not enough to put Raab away, but Knight’s on fire!”

 

Lyman: “On a roll, and you see there, not lingering on the nearfall, just staying all over Raab.”

 

Knight grabs Raab by the head before violently whipping him into the corner, flinging him like a javelin into the bundle of light tubes! The crowd ohs as Raab crashes through them facefirst, leaving behind a pile of glass shards and dust.

 

Sharper: “God, right through that bundle of tubes!”

 

Lyman: “Raab brought those into play, but he might be regretting it now! Beaten, battered, and bloodied by those things!”

 

Raab continues to writhe on the ground before Knight walks over and picks him up, spinning him around and hooking him from behind with a waistlock. He hoists Raab up and throws him back with his own version of The Frozen Pin, bridging up for the cover!

 

1!

 

2!

 

Raab breaks out of the pin just before three. The crowd ohs. Knight gets to his knees and looks up at the referee, holding up three fingers. The referee shakes their head.

 

Lyman: “And Knight continuing to use Raab’s own weapons against him, including his very own moves!”

 

Knots: “Not enough, but we’re moving along in this match. Konnie’s a bit older. Stamina’s going to come into play soon.”

 

Knight nods and gets back to his feet. He eyes the cricket bat and grabs it. Raab crawls towards the ropes, but Knight drops down and traps Raab’s arm before using the cricket bat to apply a crossface! The crowd roars as Raab desperately reaches for the ropes.

 

Sharper: “The crossface! Lucas has the crossface!”

 

Lyman: “Using the cricket bat again, and we’re on the verge of getting a repeat of their last match together!”

 

Raab reaches the ropes and hangs onto the bottom. The referee waves it off. Raab releases the ropes and wails in pain as Knight yanks back even harder.

 

Sharper: “And Raab grabbing the bottom rope, but it means nothing!”

 

Lyman: “Heat of the moment, maybe instincts kicked in, or maybe Konrad’s just panicking. Either way, he’s got to find another way out now!”

 

Raab twists his body, trying to turn to his side. He barely manages to, trying to drag his feet onto the bottom rope. After a brief struggle, he gets them on the rope and uses them to push back, rolling Knight over and landing on top of him for a pin with the hold still locked on!

 

1!

 

2!

 

Knight releases the bat and gets out from underneath Raab before the three. He shakes his head and sets the bat down before slowly stirring to his feet. He grabs Raab and pulls him up. He drills Raab with a European uppercut, sending him flying into a nearby corner. Knight charges the corner and plows into Raab with a hard clothesline. He keeps Raab pressed up before unleashing a flurry of lariats in the corner, the crowd going crazy as Knight continues to lay in the shots. Eventually, he relents. Raab falls in the corner, completely out of it. Knight grabs him by the head and looks just outside the ring, spotting the table set up just below them. Knight bends down before hoisting Raab up to the top turnbuckle in a seated position. Knight slowly begins to climb to the top rope along with Raab.

 

Sharper: “And you saw Lucas looking at that table. Now they’re both up there.”

 

Lyman: “This won’t end well.”

 

Knots: “But it WILL end! For who?! That’s the question!”

 

Knight gets to the top and grabs Raab by the head. Knight places Raab’s head up against his knee and looks down at the table once again.

 

Sharper: “Lucas maybe looking for the Pancake Press to the outside of the ring! This could end the match, or worse!”

 

The crowd buzzes before their reaction turns to one of confusion as we see El Lucho Grande sliding into the ring.

 

Sharper: “What the hell?! Someone just…”

 

Knots: “El Lucho Grande! Knight’s old alter-ego! I’m seeing double!”

 

Sharper: “Who the hell is that?!”

 

El Lucho Grande picks up the cricket bat and goes over to the corner before swinging it up and clocking Knight in the back of the head! The crowd ohs before booing loudly. Knight releases Raab and falls on top of him, Raab unintentionally holding up Knight’s dead weight.

 

Sharper: “And whoever that is, they just hit Lucas with his own weapon! What is this?!”

 

Knots: “They’re not done either!”

 

El Lucho Grande tosses the cricket bat back and reaches up to grab Knight by the tights. They take a moment before heaving Knight off the top rope and sending him plummeting through the table set up on the outside! The crowd roars as Knight is completely laid out in the rubble.

 

Sharper: “That imposter just sent Lucas through the damn table! Lucas is completely out of it! I don’t even know what we’re witnessing right now!”

 

El Lucho Grande exits the ring, slowly making their way up the ramp. Meanwhile, Raab comes to and looks down at Knight buried in the rubble. He slowly comes down from the top turnbuckle and falls to the floor, scrambling over Knight for the cover. 

 

Knots: “Whatever it is, Konnie’s taking advantage!”

 

The referee rolls out, looking conflicted. Raab shouts at the referee before they reluctantly drop down for the count.

 

1!

 

2!

 

3!

 

The crowd boos as the bell sounds. “Violence Fetish” plays while Raab rolls off of Knight, just taking a moment to rest on the floor.

 

Phillips: “Here is your winner, via pinfall, and NEW SCW Underground Champion, Konrad Raab!”

 

The referee hands the Underground Championship to Raab, who clutches it close to his chest as he continues to lay on the floor, blood streaming down his face. We get a good look at Knight, who’s also bleeding but is hardly responsive while the referee checks on him.

 

Sharper: “New Underground Champion…I don’t know what to say.”

 

Lyman: “This could be considered an upset, but Konrad, he finally got his opportunity, and he’s got the spoils to show for it. No matter how it happened, Konrad Raab is now a title holder here in SCW!”

 

Knots: “With the assist going to El Lucho Grande of all people!”

 

Raab gets up and holds the title up into the air. He slides into the ring and slowly climbs to the second rope, clearly showing the effects of the match. He holds the title in the air once again, angrily yelling out towards the booing fans. Meanwhile, we see El Lucho Grande at the top of the ramp now, looking down at the ring. There’s another shot of Lucas on the ground being checked out by the referee. Back at the top of the ramp, El Lucho Grande reaches the curtain but stops when an attractive woman with long brunette hair steps out onto the ramp. She looks at El Lucho Grande before looking down at the ring.

 

Sharper: “And now who the hell is this?! What’s going on here?!”

 

Knots: “Calm down, Adam! Maybe that’s El Lucho Shorty. I don’t know.”

 

The two eventually go through the curtain, leaving together.

 

Lyman: “And it appears we won’t be getting any answers right now.”

 

Sharper: “Well…regardless of all of that, we have a new Underground Champion. Konrad Raab has done it. Question it all you want, the belt is now around Raab’s waist.”

 

We see Lucas just barely coming to, looking a bit lost while in the table rubble. The referee tries to chat with him as he slowly continues to come to. Inside the ring, Raab hops down and clutches the title against his chest once again. He rolls out of the ring and keeps the title close while making his way up the ramp, snapping at nearby fans. He gets to the top of the ramp and raises the title once more before disappearing behind the curtain.

 

We open up to see a shot of a blade of some sort before we see it run against a sharpener, sparks coming off it. The blade is slowly drawn back and run along the sharpener again. We then see the blade being held up and then brought down before another blade is shown, the process continuing again. We cut forward to see another blade getting sharpened and then another one. We then see all of the blades, five in all, come on screen. The camera pans out to show Kimberly Williams looking at Betty White, her bladed glove.

 

Kim: “All ready!”

 

We then hear a door opening as Marie Jones comes in, her face covered in some dirt and a shovel in her hand.

 

Kim: “Did you do the revenge digging thing-“

 

Marie: “You mean the before you go to war, dig two graves?”

 

Kim: “Yeah.”

 

Marie: “Damn sure did. Now to decide who’s going in them.”

 

The scene goes opaque as the Retribution logo comes up on the screen.

 

“SCW presents Retribution on Sunday, March 13, 2022, only on pay per view!”

 

We then cut to see Kim Williams and Marie Jones standing at the end of one of the graves. Kim then jumps in.

 

Kim: “Weeeeeee!”

 

The scene cuts to black.

 

Josh Hudson vs. Justin Davis vs. Alexis Quinne

 

The arena goes dark, and the top of the entrance ramp starts to be covered by smoke. A spotlight shines through the smoke and a dark figure stands in the middle. Once the beat picks up in the song a loud boom goes off as pyro shoots off from the stage. Then the dark figure comes out from the smoke with his hands spread like a cross. The crowd begins to roar as Justin Davis stands proud at the top of the ramp and slowly makes his way down.
 
Announcer: "On his way to the ring, from Boston, Massachusetts, weighing in at TWO-HUNDRED AND THIRTY pounds......JUSTIN! DAVVVVIIISSSS!"
 
The crowd roars once again as Davis approaches the ring. He rushes and slides into the ring, then starts doing laps around the ring before choosing a random corner, standing on the middle rope and lifts his arms up high in the air posing to the hundreds of fans in front of him. He jumps down from the rope and sits in the corner, starting to psych himself up before the match.
 
The eyes all focus on the stage. The lights grow dim. Opening strum of Rage Against the Machine's ‘Calm Like a Bomb’ plays. White house lights illuminate the ramp.
 
Feel the funk blast
Feel the funk blast
FEEL THE FUNK BLAST
 
The song kicks it. The house lights turn blue, red, green, etc. Alexis Quinne walks out through the curtains. The crowd roars. She is dressed in a silver and black sugar skull mask . She also had a silver and black Varsity Jacket with a few badges on the sleeves. She looks out at the arena, turning left and right. She then starts her march down to the ring.
 
Phillips: “Coming down to the ring, from San Francisco, California...This. Is. Alexis Quinne!”
 
Alexis stops mid-way and once again, take the moment to look out at the crowd. The song reaches the bridge. The figure lowers their head, their hands reaching towards the mask. The crowd roars as she removes some strains of hair from her sight so it's clear to everyone. She then looks to both sides of the front row, raising a finger to her ear to provoke a louder reaction. She then tosses her mask to the crowd. Reaching ringside, the camera does the classic rotation that it used to do for her entrances. She gets to the steel steps and then turns back at the fans behind her. She sticks her fist out and soon a legion of fist touch hers.
 
Satisfied, she takes a moment to gather herself before walking up the steps. Resting her head on the top turn post for a few moments, she then climbs up the top turnbuckle. Alexis yells to the crowd. The crowd responds with her. She stands there before jumping inside and then raising a fist in the air, looking at the sky. Shortly after, she takes off her jacket and tosses it to one of the staff members outside. Quinne then retreats to the corner and hoist herself up to sit on the top turnbuckle.
 
"Duality” by Slipknot blares through the PA system. The cameras show the crowd who begin cheering before zooming in at the entrance way, where Josh Hudson steps out. He wears a sleeveless black hoodie as he slowly makes his way down the ramp. He reaches the bottom of the ramp and he looks out to the crowd before making his way up the ring steps, and climbs into the ring.
 
Phillips: “And their opponent, from New York City, New York…he is…Josh! Hudson!”
 
He goes to the bottom right-hand corner, climbing to the top rope, and staring out at the crowd once again, as he lifts both fists into the air, earning more cheers before he climbs down and leans into the turnbuckle, waiting for the match to begin.
 
Sharper: “All three of these individuals have history. It’ll be interesting to see how this plays out.”
 
Lyman: “Indeed it will. Not to mention a perfect mesh of styles.”
 
The bell rings and Davis charges toward Hudson. They begin to exchange right hands.
 
Knots: “Davis and Hudson wasting no time in teeing off.”
 
Alexis charges as well and jumps on both men, throwing elbows and kicks. Davis and Hudson separate. Alexis lands a right hook, on Davis. She turns her attention to Hudson, who kicks her in the abdomen before hooking her and driving her to the mat with an exploder suplex.
 
Davis runs over and clubs Hudson in the back, before hooking him and taking him down with a belly to back suplex. Alexis gets to her feet and charges at Davis, who takes her down with a power slam. He goes for a quick cover.
 
1!
 
Alexis kicks out.
 
Sharper: “Davis with the first pin attempt of the match.”
 
Lyman: “Only getting a one count. Alexis letting him know it’s going to take much more than that to keep her down.”
 
Davis gets to his feet, pulling Alexis up as well. Alexis goes for a right cross, but Davis dunks under, hooking Alexis around her waist. Hudson is shown running over and grabbing Davis, lifting him up for a German suplex. Hudson throws Davis, who throws Alexis. Alexis flies across the ring.
 
Knots: “Alexis getting thrown into next week for crying out loud.”
 
Hudson holds onto Davis, as he climbs to his feet, lifting Davis up for another German. He hits a third suplex, then a fourth, releasing Davis. Davis lands on the mat hard. Hudson goes for a pin.
 
1!
 
2!
 
Alexis breaks it up.  Hudson gets to one knee only for Alexis to connect with a spinning heel kick. Hudson drops to the mat and rolls out of the ring.
 
Sharper: “Hudson with a pin only for Alexis to break it up at 2.”
 
Alexis gets to her feet, and she grabs Davis, pulling him to his. She goes to whip him across the ring, but Davis blocks it, taking her down with a short arm lariat. Davis holds on, pulling Alexis back up, before pulling her into a spinebuster. Davis goes for another pin.
 
1!
 
2!
 
Alexis kicks out, just as Hudson slides into the ring. Davis gets up and stops Hudson with a European uppercut. Hudson fires back with his own. Davis stumbles back and Alexis rolls him up.

Knots: “Hudson, close but no cigar!”
 
Davis pulls Hudson up, hooking him and driving Hudson to the mat with a lifting reverse DDT.
 
Sharper: “Davis with that lifting reverse…
 
Lyman: “Look out from above!”
 
Alexis is shown leaping off the top rope, connecting with a shooting star press.
 
Knots: “Alexis with the Quinnetessential Dream.”
 
Alexis hooks the leg.
 
1!
 
2!
 
Davis breaks it up. He grabs Alexis and whips her into the ropes, before driving her down with a power slam. Alexis rolls over, and gets to one knee, only for Davis to charge and connect with a running knee to the back of the head.
 
Sharper: “And Davis with the One for All.”
 
Davis covers Alexis.
 
1!
 
2!
 
3…NO! Hudson breaks it up. Alexis rolls away as Davis turns his attention to Hudson. They both climb to their feet, exchanging punches.
 
Lyman: “Who’s going to win this war of fisticuffs.”
 
Davis goes for a haymaker, but Hudson dunk under. Davis spins around and Hudson lifts him up to his shoulders, before throwing him and connecting with the knee to the face.
 
Knots: “Hudson with the Kingdom Come!”
 
Davis staggers on his feet before Hudson grabs Davis and lifts him once again.
 
Lyman: “Hudson going for a second?”
 
Hudson connects with the Kingdom Come for a second time. Davis drops to the mat and Hudson goes to move in for the pin, only for Alexis to run up behind him and shove him through the ropes. Hudson crashes on the outside as Alexis is shown hooking Davis’ leg.
 
Knots: “You gotta be kidding me!”
 
Lyman: “Is she going to steal this one?”
 
1!
 
2!
 
3!
 
The ref calls for the bell, as the crowd gives a bit of a mixed reaction at first. Alexis climbs to her feet, and the mixed reaction turns to straight cheers. Hudson is shown on the outside, standing with his hands on his hips, shaking his head. Davis is then shown stirring in the ring, holding his head as Alexis continues to celebrate.
 
Sharper: “Alexis pulling off the win here tonight.”
 
Phillips: “Here is your winner as a result of a pin fall…Alexis! Quinne!”
 
Alexis is shown celebrating a bit more before we cut away.

 

The Body, Heart, and Soul logo comes up on the screen before we see a still of Spencer Pryce vs. Christy Matthews.

 

Sharper: “Folks, we’ve seen one title change hands. Will we see another? SCW United States Champion Christy Matthews defends against Spencer Pryce!”

 

A recap video plays showing the history and growing professional rivalry between Pryce and Matthews.

 

Spencer Pryce vs. Christy Matthews

SCW United States Championship

 

Phillips: “The following match is scheduled for one fall, and is for the SCW United States Championship! Introducing first, the challenger...”

“Shot like a rocket up into the sky, Nothing could stop me tonight!”

The chorus of Skillet's “Invincible” plays as Spencer Pryce runs out through the curtain to the stage. He stops at the top of the ramp, claps his hands together one time, then spreads his arms out wide, taking in the crowd with a smile on his face. Amy Chastaine walks out behind him, drawing cheers.

Phillips: “From Beaumont, Texas and being accompanied by Amy Chastaine.... Spencer Pryce!”

Spencer makes his way down the ramp, Amy following a few steps behind. After going up the ring steps, Spencer 'wipes his feet' on the apron before stepping through the ropes as Amy walks around the ring, staying on the outside. In the center of the ring Spencer does the hand-clap then arms spread motion once more. He then meets Amy at the corner, where Amy has gotten up on the apron. They chat a bit, Spencer looking focused on whatever last-minute advice Amy is giving him as the music fades out.

Sharper: “Second chances can be hard to come by here in SCW, but here Spencer Pryce has one here tonight. Earned a title shot, had the match thrown out by the Jackals interference. The champion herself insisted on doing this again.”

Knots: “Shows you the competitive nature of Christy Matthews. One has to wonder though if it will turn out to be a mistake on her part.”

Lyman: “If Spencer Pryce and Amy Chastaine have their way, it will. Spencer is very determined.”

The opening “King of the World” by Porcelain and the Tramps hits the PA system. The fans cheer as we cut to black. Spotlights highlight areas of the crowd. We cut to an area of the crowd where we see Christy walking through. Her fists are taped and she’s wearing a red ring jacket with red hood pulled up over her head. Around her waist, just visible through the jacket, is the United States Championship around her waist.

...O R D E R O F C H A O S P R E S E N T S...

...C H R I S T Y M A T T H E W S...

Christy pauses, her head down for a moment before extending her arms in the mock crucifix pose. After a moment she starts walking to the ring. When she approaches ringside, she doesn’t even break stride, simply vaulting over the guardrail and toward the ring apron where she jumps up, quickly ascending the turnbuckles and extends her arms again in the mock crucifix pose.

Phillips: “And his opponent, from the City of Angels, representing the Order of Chaos, she is the SCW United States Champion, this is CHRISTY MATTHEWS!”

She steps up onto the top turnbuckle and then jumps down to the ring, taking off her jacket and throwing it into the corner. She then unclips the belt from her waist before dropping to her knees, extending her arms out again with one belt in each hand before collapsing back into a seated position in the corner. The official retrieves the title belt as the music fades.

Knots: “Christy just as calm and collected as ever.”

Sharper: “You know she learned a lot about Spencer in their first bout, she'll be coming in with a game plan.”

Lyman: “She will, but so will Spencer. Amy wouldn't let him walk into this without one.”

Amy gets down from the apron, leaving Spencer in his corner. Christy gets to her feet. The official holds the belt overhead for a few moments. As he lowers it and steps back, the bell rings. Christy offers a handshake to Spencer. He takes it without hesitation. The crowd applauds.

Lyman: “And the handshake.”

Sharper: “Sportsmanship, you love to see it.”

The two competitors circle each other, both contemplating their first move. As they turn so that Spencer is facing Amy, he glances towards her. The momentary lack of focus on Christy gives her an opening, ad she rushes Spencer, pulling him into a lockup. Before he can even struggle Christy pulls a standing switch and immediately throws Spencer back with a German suplex. The crowd oohs in surprise. Spencer lands on his back, but rolls through and gets back to his feet. Christy turns and they face off. Spencer nods as Christy grins.

Sharper: “Christy Matthews making a statement to Spencer, and everyone, about how this match is gonna go.”

Knots: “And that statement is – not easy.”

Spencer waves at Christy in a 'come on' motion. She shrugs a little, and approaches. They lock up again, this time Spencer gets the advantage and twists her around into a hammerlock. He pulls it tight as Christy tries to escape. Spencer wrenches up on Christy's arm, pulling it almost across her back. Christy grits her teeth.

Lyman: “There's that game plan, already working on the shoulder, thinking about the Pryce Check later, that Fujiwara armbar that's made Spencer so successful.”

Sharper: “It's smart wrestling, but Christy is experienced and has to know what he's thinking.”

Knots: “Not only that, if Christy has ever tapped out, I don't remember it. Good luck, kid!”

Christy ducks under and spins around, her quickness causing Spencer to release the hold. She turns and grabs Spencer and sends him across. On the return Christy nails Spencer with a leg lariat. He goes down, but starts to get up right away. Christy grabs him and sends him into the ropes again. This time on the return Spencer ducks a running lariat, and hits the other side. Christy turns and Spencer takes her down with a shoulder tackle. Spencer grabs Christy's arm, trying to get the Pryce Check on. The crowd oohs.

Sharper: “Going for the Pryce Check early!”

Knots: “Someone's been teaching this kid mind games.”

Christy fights out of it before Spencer can get fully into position. They both get to their feet. Christy runs at Spencer and before he can duck or anything, she nails a European uppercut. Spencer steps back from the impact. Christy hits another uppercut, then a spinning back elbow. Spencer stumbles backwards into a corner. Christy runs into the corner and hits a running knee into his ribs. She pulls Spencer out of the corner by the head then drops him with a DDT. She makes a cover.

Spencer kicks out. Both get up, Spencer shaking his head clear. Christy grabs his arm and goes for a short-arm clothesline, but Spencer ducks. He spins around Christy and grabs her from behind, before throwing her up and over with a release German suplex. Christy hits hard, and Spencer turns around... only to see Christy roll through and get back to her feet, exactly as he did at the start of the match. Spencer grins, then runs at Christy, driving her into the corner with a shoulder tackle. The crowd oohs. Spencer backs up then runs at her, landing the Sticker Shock. We see Amy clap on the outside. Christy steps out holding her head. Spencer grabs her and drops her with a sidewalk slam. He makes a cover.

1!

2!

Christy kicks out. Spencer doesn't get up though, instead he grabs Christy from behind on the mat and locks on a rear naked choke. The crowd roars.

Sharper: “Pryce again going for a submission hold, and this time the choke is locked in!”

Lyman: “He's having trouble grapevining his legs though, that's only half a Clincher right there.”

Christy keeps her legs apart, pressing her feet to the mat to prevent Spencer from being able to wrap his legs around her. She uses one leg to push herself to her side, releasing some of the pressure on her neck. Spencer though just pulls harder, and Christy back onto her back. Christy pushes the other direction with her other leg, using the momentum to turn to her other side. She then realizes where they are in the ring, and stretches a leg to the bottom rope. Spencer cringes as the official starts to count. He lets go at 2, then gets to his feet. He walks away, annoyed, as Christy holds her neck a bit, getting up.

Knots: “Not sure if Spencer really thought he was gonna submit Christy there, or he's upset he couldn't fully apply the Clincher.”

Lyman: “He may be chiding himself for not realizing how close they were to the ropes. That's where Christy Matthews' experience comes into play over the rookie.”

Spencer rubs his hand over his face, refocusing. Christy suddenly bounces off the ropes and nails Spencer with a gamengiri. The crowd oohs as he goes down. Christy follows up with a running knee drop. She then hits a standing Little Red Press. She makes a cover, hooking a leg.

Spencer kicks out. Christy shakes her head as she gets up. Spencer gets up, and Christy grabs him, intending to send him into the corner. Spencer though manages to block it, then spins Christy around, locks her arms up then plants her with the Epicplex. The crowd oohs, some cheer. Spencer gets up as Christy grabs at her back. He walks over and pulls her up and sends her across into the ropes. He ducks a little, looking for a shoulder tackle as she rebounds, but Christy grabs the ropes to stop herself. Spencer notices, and just runs at her, looking to clothesline her. Christy though ducks, pulling the top rope down with her. Spencer tumbles over. The crowd oohs, but he grabs the rope and manages to land on the apron. Christy turns, and Spencer hits a roundhouse kick from the apron over the ropes into Christy's head! She goes down as the crowd gasps then cheers. Amy stares in awe.

Sharper: “What a kick there by the challenger! Christy thought she had him out of the ring with that low bridge but he held on and just nailed her.”

Lyman: “Quick thinking there by Spencer.”

Knots: “Even his manager is impressed, and honestly so am I.”

Spencer steps through and goes to Christy. He pulls her away from the ropes then goes down, not for a cover though. Instead he grabs her and tries to apply the Pryce Check. The crowd roars as Christy fights the arm position. Spencer quickly changes his grip and locks in the Clincher instead, this time managing to get his legs around her.

Lyman: “Clincher! He got it this time!”

Sharper: “Legs locked too, and in the middle of the ring!”

We see Amy leaning on the apron watching closely. The official leans in, checking on Christy. We see her shaking her head no. Spencer pulls back harder. Christy wriggles and writhes her body as much as she can, trying to loosen the grip, roll over, anything she can to get loose. The back and forth movement creates momentum and after a few rocks back and forth, Christy manages to roll them both over. Spencer unwraps his legs from around hers but still has the choke hold applied. Christy pushes herself up with her hands, then throws herself sideways, trying to shake Spencer off her back. His grip loosens, and Christy is able to break the hold. She drops and rolls away. Spencer punches the mat in frustration, yelling as he does.

Sharper: “Christy Matthews again showing her experience there, finding a way, any way, to break that hold.”

Lyman: “Spencer had it locked in tight as well, it might have been enough to put someone else away.”

Knots: “But not Christy, she's as tough as they come, there's no quit in her!”

Spencer walks around rubbing his face as Christy recovers near the the ropes. He turns and stares at her, glaring.

Sharper: “I don't think we've ever seen Spencer angry like this.”

Lyman: “I've seen something close to it at BlackOut, an incident I'd rather not go into detail about. But in the ring? Never.”

Knots: “Looks like Amy doesn't like it.”

We see Amy getting up onto the apron. When Spencer turns in her direction, she waves him over. He meets her at the corner, and they speak a moment. Meanwhile Christy has gotten to her feet, still rubbing her throat a bit. Spencer nods at Amy, she pats his shoulder once, then gets off the apron. Spencer turns to face Christy. She steps away from the ropes, ready to go in a fighting stance. Spencer glances down at Amy, she nods. He turns his attention back to Christy and steps up. Christy throws an uppercut. Spencer fires back with a forearm. Christy steps back then hits a spinning elbow. Spencer takes a step back, but then hits another roundhouse kick to the head. Christy goes down to a knee. Spencer backs up and runs at her, looking for a running knee to the head, but Christy sees him coming and blocks it, grabbing his leg. She pulls and Spencer falls to his back. Christy goes for another Little Red Press, but Spencer rolls out of the way. Christy hits the mat hard. The crowd oohs. Spencer gets to the corner and up on the second rope as Christy starts to get up. She turns and Spencer takes her down with a blockbuster. He goes for a pin.

Christy kicks out. Spencer gets to his feet and goes back to the corner, back on the second rope. Christy gets to her feet, looking around.

Sharper: “What is Spencer Pryce doing? He's shown himself to prefer a more grounded, submission based style!”

Lyman: “He does prefer it, but he can fly if need be. See!”

Christy gets to her feet, and Spencer hops to the top rope then launches.

Sharper: “Lonestar! He nailed it!”

Knots: “Christy! Rolls through!”

As Spencer lands on Christy, she grabs him and rolls, taking advantage of the momentum and making a cover.

Spencer gets his shoulder up. The crowd roars.

Sharper: “Spence Pryce won't stay down! Christy asking herself what else she needs to do.”

Lyman: “I told you, he's determined! He wants to be a champion!”

Knots: “He couldn't do it on the ground, can he do it another way?”

Both Spencer and Christy get up slow, the exertion of the match wearing on them both. Spencer holding his back, Christy grabs his free arm and whips him into a corner. She runs in, looking for a running knee. Spencer though spins out at the last second, and Christy hits the turnbuckles, barely stopping herself from hitting the post with her knee. Spencer turns and as Christy turns around, he drills her with a Sticker Shock!

Sharper: “Knee to the head! Second time he's hit that tonight and this time it looked harder.”

Knots: “Spencer definitely had more oomph in it that time.”

Christy goes down to a knee in the corner. Spencer grabs her and pulls her up, then lifts her up before turning and planting her with a sidewalk slam. Wasting no time he goes to the corner and up to the top rope. He looks around, down at Amy for a split second, before he jumps, spins, and lands perfectly across Christy!

Lyman: “Texas Tornado!”

Sharper: “And the cover!”

Spencer hooks the far leg.

1!

3!

The crowd roars as the bell rings. Spencer lets Christy go and looks around, up at the official, unsure if he heard correctly.

Phillips: “Your winner by pinfall... AND NEW SCW United States Champion... Spencer Pryce!”

“Invincible” fills the arena as the crowd cheers. We see Christy sit up as Amy enters the ring. She helps Spencer to his feet as the official hands him the belt. Spencer takes it, looks down at it, then up at Amy. She smiles and nods. Finally, Spencer smiles and holds the belt up with one hand, as the official raises the other.

Sharper: “He did it! The kid did it! Debut after Rise to Greatness, only been pinned once, voted Rookie of the Year for 2021... and now, United States Champion!”

Knots: “I admit I wasn't sure he could do it. Impressive victory over one of the best.”

Lyman: “Spencer came in with a game plan, when the plan didn't work? He changed the plan! Hard fought by both, Christy never makes it easy. But tonight was Spencer's night!”

The official has gone to check on Christy. Amy goes to raise Spencer's arm again, but he pulls away, choosing instead to hold the title belt overhead with both hands. Amy claps as the crowd cheers. Spencer goes to a corner on the second turnbuckle and poses as his music continues a few moments before we cut away.

 

The scene opens up with a shot of a casino. The camera goes down one of the main entrance ways, seeing people filing in and out. The camera turns before we see a ten minute chapel, boarded up. The camera moves forward to get a shot of the information about the establishment, showing Derek Adonis before his conversion. The camera pans off and turns, leading into the main casino, before moving into the slot machines. The camera slowly moves past one row and then another before moving to the third row where we see Katie Steward seated at one of the slot machines. She looks around before putting a coin in. She pulls the level. The camera moves over to film the result, showing first a Rise to Greatness XIX logo, and then another one, before a third one. Bells go off as coins start to come out of the machine.

 

“Rise to Greatness XIX, July 31, 2022, Allegiant Stadium, Las Vegas, Nevada”

 

The symbol remains on the screen for a few moments before we cut back to the slot machines, seeing Jordan Majors, Ace Marshall, Cid Turner, Autumn Valentine, and Shilo Valiant all starting to gamble too as the scene fades to black.

 

Syren vs. Glory Braddock

 

The first chords of "When Legends Rise" begins to play over the PA system...

 

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall and has a thirty minute time limit. First, on her way to the ring, from London, England, she is the British Bombshell, Glory Braddock!”
 
Glory Braddock steps out onto the stage, wearing her ring gear consisting of purple spandex pants, boots, and a purple top. She really does look like a million bucks and grins from ear to ear, gazing out at the crowd for a moment before making her way down the entrance ramp.
 
It's burning down, it's burning high
when ashes fall the legends rise
We burned it out oh my oh why
When ashes fall the legends rise

Throat is dry, my vision's fading
I'm paralyzed and left here waiting
Taking time just one step forward
Won't lose my mind, I'm here to stay

The British Bombshell steps up the steel steps and then onto the ring apron. She poses momentarily on the apron, allowing people to take snapshots before stepping through the ropes and into the ring.  Once in the ring Glory heads to the center of the ring and poses once more. Then the music dies down slowly...

 

Sharper: “Glory Braddock stepping up when Xander Valentine, injured on Breakdown, not cleared tonight, and she is happy to face Syren. Especially with a potential World Championship match in the future.”

 

Knots: “Yeah. Sometimes you get a chance to call your shot. Glory is taking it.”

 

Lyman: “And no matter what, who wins this one, they’ve got to be a favourite to go up against Holly or Selena whomever the World Champion is after tonight!”

 

The lights in the arena plunge into darkness. A pulsing sound plays out across the PA system as the fans cheer. We cut to the backstage area where we see a tour bus with Syren’s logo on the side. Syren walks out in her full ring gear, complete with black ring jacket and pink halter-top/black tights. She begins walking into the arena as we cut back to inside to see the fans reacting. “Groupie” by Cassie Steele then hits as we see one of the doors opening and Syren walking through. She pauses to take in the atmosphere before walking down toward the ring.

 

Sinfully Seductive

Captivatingly Corrupt

DARK FANTASY

 

Syren walks down the walkway to the crowd barricade before walking around and through the timekeeper’s area. She jumps up onto the apron before climbing the turnbuckles on the outside and waving her hands to get the fans fired up. As the camera gets closer to her, she shouts at the camera before pointing out at the fans.

 

Phillips: “Her opponent, hailing from Los Angeles, California, this is Syren!”

 

Syren smiles before leaping over the top rope and posing in the ring with both her arms outstretched. She screams before taking off her ring jacket and throwing it over the top rope toward the timekeeper’s table. She climbs up on the middle rope, posing for a moment before jumping back down and standing in her corner as her music fades out.

 

Sharper: “Syren ready to go. Glory looks good too. And this could be a hell of a match. Two of the greats.”

 

Lyman: “Both synonymous with the World Championship in their careers. Glory more outside of SCW. Syren a former seven-time champion.”

 

Syren looks at Glory as Glory turns back. The two watch one another as the crowd roars. The bell sounds. The roars only grow as Syren and Glory step up and circle the ring.

Lyman: “Did she train that with CHBK back in the day? I don’t know.”

 

Syren keeps trying to move as she shakes her head. Glory keeps the left arm pinned and pulls back on the leg. The official checks on Syren. Syren tells no as She starts to move a bit. Glory tries to hold on and leans back, wincing briefly and leans forward, but Syren takes the opportunity to turn, just enough to then then reach up and clubs Glory in the lower back and then again before Glory let go of the leg, spins through and into a mount. She hammers away on Syren with a couple of shots before Syren gets her legs up, hooking Glory’s right arm and pulling her back into a pin

Glory kicks out. Both get up and Glory gets up and lunges, going for a clothesline. Syren ducks. Glory strikes the official. She looks down and turns and Syren manages to catch Glory, snapping her over with a side belly to belly suplex. Syren then rolls over, clutching her left arm as Glory rolls to her side, holding her ribs and back.

 

Sharper: “My God! The back and forth. And Glory missing Syren. Striking Michael Constantine, our official!”

 

Lyman: “Syren stayed focused. Just threw Glory down, but with the last ounce she had before her body screamed in pain.”

 

Knots: “Come on Shaun. Get your thing going here. You said you were going to change a few things!”

 

Glory winces as Syren starts to get up as we then see Amelia Stone grabbing the hand of SCW official Jennifer Cassidy. Syren starts to get up and turns as Amelia gets to the ring and turns before seeing Syren up. Cassidy slides into the ring as Syren turns and walks over to Glory. Amelia climbs onto the apron, cheering Glory on. Syren ignores her as does Cassidy at first as Syren grabs Glory and then goes for the Total Makeover. Glory shoves her back. Cassidy turns and tells Amelia to get down as Amelia climbs down and Syren turns as Glory grabs her and jumps up for the Shekinah Glory, but Syren lifts her up and powerbombs her. Syren staggers around as Amelia leans on the apron, cheering on Glory. Glory turns to her.

 

Sharper: “Amelia Stone bringing out another official. We know they were right at the Go Position, right by the curtain. Amelia must have been there too.”

 

Knots: “Now Glory has a cheering section!”

 

Sharper: “She’s just noticing it too!”

 

Amelia continues to cheer her on as Glory grabs at the ropes and Amelia then climbs up and even starts to help Glory up, getting caught up in the moment. Glory pulls away and tells her to get down. Cassidy walks over to get Amelia down. Amelia climbs up and cheers on Glory, ignoring both as Glory turns around and Syren lunges and goes for the Bittersweet Ending to Glory. Glory ducks and Syren blasts Amelia. Amelia drops off the mat. Syren briefly turns to her before Glory grabs her from behind, hooking her arms and twisting her down and right into the Glorification!

 

Sharper: “Amelia! Syren hit her! Glory twisting her down!”

 

Lyman: “Syren hesitated for a moment, hitting Syren and Glory, focusing on victory! Glorification!”

 

Sharper: “She’s got Syren down!”

 

Glory rolls Syren over and hooks the leg.

 

1!

 

2!

 

3!

 

The crowd roars. The bell sounds. Glory rolls off. She then sits next to Syren before turning back before turning to Amelia who is down on the floor.

 

Phillips: “Here is your winner, via pinfall, Glory Braddock!”

 

Sharper: “Amelia Stone just trying to keep this match going. And in the process, she did help.”

 

Knots: “She wanted Glory to win but got a superkick to the face. Talk about a Bittersweet Ending!”

 

Sharper: “And Glory defeating Syren here tonight at Body, Heart and Soul. But she looks a bit disappointed.”

 

Knots: “She knows. If Amelia wasn’t there. Would this have happened? She’s a competitor!”

 

Glory then gets up and has her arm raised. She looks out at the crowd as she turns back to Syren and then to Amelia. She then refocuses and holds her arms up as the crowd cheers her. Cassidy checks on Syren as Syren stirs.

 

A recap video showing Cid Turner angering Tommy Valentine, Brittany Lohan and Jordan Majors and how this led to the SCW Adrenaline Championship match at Body, Heart, and Soul.

 

Cid Turner vs. Brittany Lohan vs. Tommy Valentine vs. Jordan Majors

SCW Adrenaline Championship

 

The arena's lights cut out completely, plunging the whole room into darkness for several seconds before the screens light up to display four words.

HEART FILLED WITH HATE

The screens show static for a few seconds before going dark once more. The black screen starts to pulse now like a heartbeat and on each pulse that reverberates round the arena, a shot of Thomas in various poses is shown before reverting to the words on screen until the next pulse that sounds like a bass drum beat with increasing volume until a final shot of him holding the SCW Title aloft after winning the match at Taking Hold Of The Flame is Shown and remains until two green fireworks shoot from the rafters and explode on the ramp. The explosion drifts across the ramp before the beginning chords to "Cut The Cord" by Shinedown, hits.

"FREE-DOM LALALALA FREE-DOM FOLLOW ME!"

As the last word echoes, the lights start to strobe again briefly as the song reverberates throughout the arena now, causing the fans to start jeering, the heat almost palpable in the air. The lights finally flicker back on and Thomas Valentine can now be seen on top of the arena's ramp as he looks out into the audience that are now booing loudly, chanting obscenities in some cases. He stops and smiles a little before spinning around away from the fans and holding his arms outwards with his palms upwards, he then stops and then shakes his head before smirking and shrugging.

 

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall and has a thirty minute time limit and is for the SCW Adrenaline Championship! First, on his way to the ring, one of the challengers, from Los Angeles, California, he is Tommy Valentine!”

 

Fireworks then shoot out at the top of the ramp in a burst before Thomas starts walking down to the ring. As he walks past the barrier he looks out into the crowds and goes to high five a few fans and moves his hand at the last second, instead running it through his hair and chuckling before moving on down the ramp, the smirk still on his face before he slides underneath the ropes and immediately runs to the corner and climbs the turnbuckle, simply nodding before looking at all the fans in the crowd with undisguised disgust. Thomas jumps down and does the same to all the turnbuckles, soaking in the disapproval of the fans before standing still in the centre, cranking his neck. He then stands motionless in the corner, before waiting for his opponents.

 

Sharper: “Tommy Valentine has two objectives tonight. Get his hands on Cid Turner. Turner, in Tommy’s mind, cost him the Trios Tournament. But two, to make history. He wins this match and the title, he joins the annals of history as a Supreme Champion.”

 

Lyman: “He’s had a lot of chances at this. This has been the elusive thing in his career. But you have to wonder what Tommy’s number one goal is – revenge or history and will he have to choose?”

 

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

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

 

Phillips: “Next, from San Diego, California, she is Brittany Lohan!”

With clenched fists, gritted teeth, and glaring icy eyes… Lohan starts to make her way down to the ring methodically. Lohan is taking slow, calculated, but powerful steps towards the ring. Her icy glare is so fixated on the ring that it would seem to appear that she doesn’t realize that the arena is nearly sold out. The way that she looks right now it might as well be empty for all she cares.

As she nears the squared circle, Lohan slows down to a snail’s pace as she proceeds to walk around the perimeter of the ring with her eyes closed. When she’s satisfied she opens her eyes and reaches up to grab the bottom rope with her right hand and pulls herself up onto the apron only allowing one knee to touch before she rolls into the ring. 

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

 

Sharper: “Lohan another individual with the desire to get their hands on Cid Turner, but this is for Kennedy Street.”

 

Knots: “With her non-existent money.”

 

Sharper: “But add Jordan Majors…again, a few wrinkles this this one.”

 

The lights slowly dim down. The crowd buzzes in anticipation, many of them taking their phones out and lighting up the arena with their flashlights. After a few moments of silence, "Dark Child" by Marlon Williams plays as the lights flash back on. The big screen shows several highlights of Cid Turner's career as the song continues to play. The crowd boos as Cid makes his way onto the stage, looking tensely out into the crowd. Cookie Dreams comes skipping out behind him, receiving a mixed reaction from the crowd as she gives Cid an exaggerated thumbs up while he continues looking out into the crowd. Cid takes a moment to let it all soak in before he begins his walk down the ramp with Cookie trailing not far behind.

 

Phillips: “Next, from Denver, Colorado, accompanied by Cookie Dreams, he is Cid Turner!”

 

"My little blonde-haired, blue-eyed boy

One day you'll grow up and be distressed

One day you'll grow up and reject everything

I've set out for you"

 

Cid continues his walk down the ramp and keeps his eye on the ring while continually muttering to himself. Cid reaches the ring as Cookie stays on the outside, making her way around the corner. Cid climbs up the steps, slowly walking across the apron to the corner and pulling himself up onto the second rope, standing on the turnbuckle and looking around the arena while taking a deep breath.

 

"My only dear long wasteful son

One day you'll wonder what you've become"

 

The music begins to fade out as Cid climbs down from the ropes and enters the ring, Tommy and Brittany both step up before turning to one another. Aaron Demitra steps up in front of them as Cid backs up before slowly entering. He remains in his corner as his music fades out.

 

Sharper: “And Lohan and Valentine already thinking about getting their hands on Cid!”

 

Knots: “Why not? The moment the bell rings, chaos can reign!”

 

Lyman: “Demitra is going to have a hard time keeping this all together.”

 

The lights go down and then red lights blink on the stage as “Warrior” by Stitched Up Heart begins to play.

Warrior… Warrior…
I’m… I’m a…
Warrior… Warrior…
I’m… I’m a Warrior!

A spotlight shines on the center of the stage to show Jordan Majors from behind, arms outstretched. The SCW Adrenaline Championship is around her waist. She turns around right as the guitar riffs and pumps a fist with a smile across her face. She looks out at the crowd and nods a few times before she begins walking down the ramp.

Phillips: “And finally, from Chicago, Illinois, she is the SCW Adrenaline Champion, Jordan Majors!”


Jordan keeps her eyes on the ring as she heads down the rampway. She gets to the bottom of the ramp and surveys the crowd once more before running and sliding into the ring. She stays on her stomach. She leans on her elbows and kicks her feet behind her before rolling to her feet.  Jordan runs and jumps up on the nearest corner and puts one arm up as she looks out at the crowd and nods her head. She turns and hands off the title to Demitra. Demitra goes to raise it over his head as Lohan lunges toward Cid. Cid steps through the ropes and Demitra stops Lohan. Majors scans the ring as the SCW Adrenaline Championship logo comes across the screen.

 

Sharper: “Part of this is revenge on Cid. Jordan Majors part of that too. Concerned about Cookie Dreams, her friend, siding with Cid Turner and the Brand.”

 

Lyman: “Yeah, but with the Adrenaline Championship on the line. Needing to meet its obligations for defenses, here we are and so Majors has a lot to lose here.”

 

The bell sounds. Lohan and Tommy both run at Cid, but Cid steps through the ropes. Lohan grabs at the ropes. Cid drops down as Tommy grabs Lohan and clubs her in the back. Majors rolls to the floor as Cid backs away from the ring. Majors walks around the ring before Cid notices her. Cid turns to Cookie as Cookie turns to Jordan. Jordan steps up to her and shakes her head before saying she has to. Cookie tries to convince her to stop as Cid backs up. In the ring, Tommy grabs Brittany and runs her along the ropes, sending her face first into the far corner. Lohan turns. Jordan then steps past Cookie as Cid comes up and nails her with a hard right. Jordan drops. The crowd ohs. Cookie turns to Cid as Cid backs up. Just then, Tommy heads over to the ropes.

 

Sharper: “Tommy and Brittany going at it already. Cid clocking Jordan Majors as Cookie Dreams trying to talk to her friend, former friend, I don’t know.”

 

Lyman: “Clearly still friends as they clearly care for one another.”

 

Knots: “Cid doesn’t care. He clocked Jordan. And now Tommy may be looking to do the same back!”

 

Cid backs up as Tommy glances at Cookie before dropping down. He then runs after Cid as Cid backs up and Tommy grabs him by the arm. Cid quickly kicks him in the ribs. He turns and runs him face first into the top of the Spanish announce table. Tommy staggers back and Cid turns and runs him over into the steel steps. Cid turns and Jordan starts to get up and runs around and Cid sidesteps her as Jordan runs over and hits a running dropkick to Tommy as he’s against the steps. The crowd ohs. Cid rolls into the ring. He then backs up and turns and steps forward as Lohan runs out of the corner and drills him with a pounce. Cid flies and hits the mat and then the ropes before rolling to the apron.

 

Sharper: “Good lord! The impact! Lohan throwing her weight at Cid!”

 

Knots: “I vaguely remember Cid doing something like that back in the day. He certainly forgets now….period!”

 

Lohan gets up as Jordan rolls into the ring. Lohan turns and smirks as Jordan steps up and forearms her in the jaw. She nails him again and Lohan falls to the ropes. Majors grabs her and goes to whip her across. Lohan spins through and sends Majors in. Majors bounces off and Lohan lifts her up and launches her in the air with a huge back body drop. The crowd ohs. Majors rolls over, holding her back. She turns and Lohan clotheslines her down. She then looks around before seeing Cid starting to get up on the floor. Lohan walks over to the ropes, reaching over and placing her hand on the apron before flipping down to her feet. She moves past Cookie as Cookie looks at her and then the ring and then back at Cid before Cid gets up and Lohan blasts him with a forearm.

 

Sharper: “Lohan is the only one so far to get a shot in on Cid!”

 

Knots: “But we may have an answer, at least for now, Lohan is here to get Kennedy’s revenge.”

 

Lyman: “Not snide comment.”

 

Knots: “Well I could say how she can’t do anything herself…and I mean anything…but that seems mean.”

 

Cid stumbles back. Lohan grabs him and forearms him again before turning and rolling him into the ring. Cid rolls over and backs away from the ropes. He glances behind him at Majors and then to Tommy who is up at ringside. Lohan slides in. Cid gets up and Majors runs at Cid and clotheslines him down before catching Lohan with a kick. Lohan falls to the corner. Majors then nails her with a hard forearm and then another before hitting a shoot kick. She turns back as Tommy grabs Cid and pulls him up and runs him into the corner. Cid turns and Tommy just nails him with a series of hard right hands. Cid drops down to a knee and then down to the mat. He grabs at the ropes to get out, and Tommy grabs him first by the waist and then by the legs, trying to pull him away. Majors turns and sees this and she runs over and grabs Cid by his other leg. Majors and Tommy lock eyes briefly before both get a deeper hook, pull hard, causing Cid to get free and then both hoist him up and throw him back with a snap tandem wheelbarrow suplex!

 

Sharper: “Majors and Valentine working together here!”

 

Lyman: “They’d rather know where Cid is. And he’s right now in the middle! Cover attempt by Tommy!”

 

Tommy turns and goes for the pin. Majors then nails him with a hard right before a one can be counted. Majors goes for the pin herself.

Tommy nails her with a shot. Both then get up and Tommy headbutts Majors. Majors staggers and Tommy grabs her again as Lohan then runs out and Majors and Tommy again work together as they lift her up and back drop her.

Majors dives for the pin.

2!

 

Tommy kicks out.

 

Sharper: “Tommy with a nice run there, but again, this is the hazard of these multi-person matches.”

 

Lyman: “Majors got a hell of a kick there though. That just floored Valentine!”

 

Knots: “And Majors may have the right idea. Focus on the title, get your revenge later!”

 

Majors gets up and she stomps Tommy in the head twice before turning as Lohan walks up and knees her in the ribs. Lohan then hoists her up and drops her with a backbreaker. Majors rolls over in pain. Lohan then turns and goes over to Cid as he gets up in the corner. Lohan grabs him and Cid hits a mule kick. Lohan grimaces from the impact as she leans back. Cid looks back and then turns to Lohan before gulping. He then elbows her in the jaw. Cid then climbs up to the top rope. Tommy gets up and grabs Lohan as Cid then dives back with a no-look dive into both. The crowd ohs.

 

Sharper: “Cid Turner maybe realizing that he’ll need to fight.”

 

Lyman: “I think he was going to fight. This is the first chance he’s had to do it!”

 

Knots: “Well he’s also fighting for survival. He knew he screwed up there with Lohan!”

 

Cid then looks at Tommy and Lohan as they stir. Majors holds her back at the ropes. Cid then turns and runs at Majors and hits a baseball slide on her, sending her out of the ring, off the apron and hard to the floor. Cid rolls over as Cookie winces a bit. She quickly is distracted as she turns back to Cid as Cid turns and nails Lohan with a hard right and then nails Tommy with one. He turns back to Lohan striking her again before back elbowing Tommy. Cid then turns and runs past both and grabs both by the head and hits a double facebuster. The crowd ohs. Cid goes for the pin attempt on Lohan.

Cid then stomps her over and over, getting her to move to the ropes before Cid starts to push her out with his foot. Lohan slides to the floor. Cid turns and looks at Tommy and nods.

 

Knots: “Guess he’s decided Tommy is the most beatable.”


Lyman: “Don’t let him hear you say that.”

 

Knots: “He can take it up with Cid. Cid made the decision!”

 

Cid then heads over to Tommy and drags him up. He hooks him up by the chest and hits an STO backbreaker. He pulls him back up and then goes for something, but Tommy elbows his way out of it and Cid spins around before Tommy grabs him and hits a reverse STO before rolling through into a Koji clutch. Tommy pulls back. The crowd roars.

 

Tommy: “Tap your cowardly bitch!”

She gets up and Majors runs over and hits a dropkick to the head of Tommy. Tommy lets go and rolls over. The crowd ohs.

Tommy however turns to the corner where Cid is now on the top rope and Cid dives off, hitting Tommy with the Denver Diving Kick. The crowd ohs as Tommy goes down and, in the process, slamming Lohan!

 

Sharper: “Cid taking out two of the people in this match! Lohan down from the electric chair. Tommy down thanks to Cid!”

 

Lyman: “And Cid having the timing of a God in this one.”

 

Knots: “Ixnay on the Od-gay. He hates Chad Evans…and also he’s got Gleebnips or whatever in him!”

Cid breaks it up with a shooting star press. The crowd ohs as Cid pops up, holding his ribs and falls over. Majors then grabs at the ropes, starting to pull herself up.

 

Sharper: “Lohan got Tommy. She thought she might get Cid. But the allure of the pin was too much!”

 

Lyman: “And Cid Turner again from the top and this time, all of his weight down on Lohan!”

 

Cookie jumps up and down, cheering for Cid, before she stops and notices Majors getting up. Cid turns and Majors hits a shoot kick to Cid’s head. Cid drops to the mat. Majors then falls to her knees when suddenly, someone hops the guardrail.

 

Sharper: “What the hell? Another run-in. What is going on?”

 

Knots: “Is it someone from the Brand?”

 

The camera focuses on their hand, a barbed wire wrapped baseball bat.

 

Sharper: “My God! Look at what they have?”

 

Knots: “Jesus!”

 

Lyman: “Why are they….they’re going after Cookie Dreams!”

 

Cookie turns as the person starts to advance on them. Cookie looks at the woman, a mix of confused and scared as she backs up a bit. The person points the barbed wire bat at Cookie as the crowd buzzes. Majors turns and sees this and walks over and reaches through, but then the person turns and grabbing the top of the bat too, swings, nailing Jordan in the forehead. Jordan falls back, rolling over, a cut opening on her forehead. Majors rolls over, more trying to find the person and looks over as Cookie looks stunned and the figure backs up before removing the mask, revealing it to be Dawn Lohan. The crowd erupts with a mixed of cheers and boos.

 

Sharper: “Dawn Lohan?! Dawn Lohan…she was dating Jordan…she was….”

 

Lyman: “Why Lohan had such a problem with her? And she just nailed Jordan? She threatened Cookie?!”

 

Knots: “Look at Jordan!”

 

Jordan just looks at her and Dawn then throws the bat down and walks around the ring. The crowd looks on, still buzzing as Tommy and Lohan stir. Cid does too. Lohan gets up as Majors just looks down, remaining on her side, trying to come to terms with what she just saw before Tommy grabs Lohan and Lohan grab Tommy. Cid then manages to get up and dropkicks both in the side. They fall through the ropes to the floor. Cid then looks at Cookie and then Majors before seeing Dawn before Cid thinks a moment. Jordan starts to stir, but Cid turns and runs over and takes her down. Before Majors can react, Cid grabs her and locks in the King’s Coup, perhaps intentionally moving to allow Jordan to see Dawn Lohan walking up the rampway. Dawn glances back. We briefly see Brittany looking up from the floor, smiling.

 

Sharper: “Cid has the King’s Coup locked in.”

 

Lyman: “And he’s making Jordan watch Dawn leave!”

 

Cookie keeps looking at Dawn and then the ring as Jordan’s fight just stops and Jordan taps the mat three times with very little care. The bell sounds as Cid lets go. Jordan then drops to the mat, looking down at the ring.

 

Phillips: “Here is your winner, and NEW SCW Adrenaline Champion….Cid Turner!”

 

Cid gets up and throws his arm up. The crowd boos.

 

Sharper: “I don’t believe it. Cid Turner is the Adrenaline Champion. Jordan Majors…she just…”

 

Knots: “Did she give up?”

 

Lyman: “I think her world just shattered.”

 

Sharper: “Cid’s world just added gold. For the first time in his career, he is the SCW Adrenaline Champion!”

 

Knots: “And he avoided the destruction by others!”

 

Cid Turner steps forward as he’s handed the SCW Adrenaline Championship. Cid takes it and calls for Cookie to enter the ring. Cookie climbs up to the apron, looking at Jordan before entering the ring. Tommy just looks at ringside, annoyed. Just then, “Criticize” by Adelita’s Way starts to play. The crowd roars and then boos. Brittany Lohan turns to the stage as Cid turns too. Cookie looks around.

 

Knots: “Oh great!”

 

Sharper: “We’ve not heard that since Under Attack…”

 

Lyman: “I thought she was protesting or something!”

 

Kennedy Street walks out from the back. She stops in the middle of the stage and poses. The crowd boos some more as she looks around. She then turns to the ring. She shakes her head and as she takes a few steps down to the ring, suddenly, the camera angle changes to the ring to see Cid Turner down as the crowd is now cheering as Asher Hayes is on him and hammering away on him with repeated right hands.

 

Sharper: “Wait! The ring! The ring! Asher Hayes! He came from the crowd!”

 

Lyman: “Came from the crowd and is going right after Cid Turner! Guess he’s not happy with his friend!”

 

Hayes gets a few more shots in on Cid as Cookie tries to get Asher off Cid. Cid starts to move, covering up and rolling. Kennedy looks around, snapping at people to focus on her, as back in the ring, Cid moves to the ropes and Cookie leaves the ring, grabbing Cid by the arm and pulling him out of the ring. Asher tries to reach for him as Cid falls over and down to the floor. He starts to crawl away, Cookie grabbing his title. Asher tries to reach for him before backing up and looking at Cid, seething. The crowd cheers Asher as he keeps his eyes on Cid. The crowd continues to cheer for him as the scene fades to black.

 

A recap video plays showing Nicole Kinneck and Gavin Taylor’s relationship, Lexy Chapel and her Angels winning the Tag Titles and how we got to the two teams clashing tonight.

 

Team SU (Nicole Kinneck & Gavin Taylor) vs. LexyCorp (Ace Marshall & Autumn Valentine)

 

A sudden loud boom from a power surge echoes through the arena as the lights and monitors shut off and power goes down. There's a hum of confusion in the arena before we hear a little girl’s voice giggling through the speakers.

 

OOPSYYY..! WRONG BUTTON!

 

As monitors begin to flicker back on, “Hello Kitty” by Avril Lavigne starts to play.

 

Mina sako arigato, k-k-k-kawaii!

 

An explosion of rainbow confetti, smoke and pink glitter pop off at the main entrance as bright pink strobe lights fill the arena. The crowd roars as Ducky Kinneck appears in the smoke wearing a yellow duck onesie and heart shaped sunglasses, frolicking and jumping around as the glitter rains down around her. Gavin Taylor walks out with her, not wearing a onesie, but instead his wrestling attire.

 

K-k-k-kawaii.

 

Ducky spins around and shakes her duck tail at the crowd before skipping and twirling down the ramp, smacking all the hands she could on the way down. At the bottom, she stops and dances with a group of fans who wore foil hats and “SAVE US FROM THE GLEEBNORBS” T-shirts. Gavin Taylor watches her before shaking his head and heading to the ring. He slides in.

 

Phillips: “The following contest is scheduled for onefall and has a sixty minute time limit and is for the SCW World Tag Team Championship. First, the challengers, they are the team of Gavin Taylor and Nicole ‘Ducky’ Kinneck, they are Team SU!”

 

Come come Kitty Kitty

You're so silly silly

 

Ducky makes a goofy face before skipping and hopping onto the apron. She excitedly looked out into the crowd as she pulled back on the top rope then flings her head back, looking upside down at those behind her and mouthed, “Hiii!” She pops her head back up and jumped, trying to fling herself over the top rope but gets caught and crashes down face first in the ring. Gavin runs over to her to help her up, but she gets back up scrunching her nose before suddenly pointing to a group of signs in the audience and falling into a giggle fit. The cameras pan over to that section: “ACE MARSHAL IS A DOODY HEAD!” “ACE HAS A FUNNY LOOKING BUTT!” “ACE THINKS DUCKY IS THE BEST!” “ACE MARSHAL FOR THE HUMAN RACE!” When the cameras switch back to the ring, Ducky shakes her head ‘no’ at the referee and hugs herself tight and yells in a fit as her music starts to fade.

 

“But I wanna wear it! I’m a duck!”

 

Don't go Kitty Kitty

Play with me…

 

Ducky scrunches her nose and slaps her sunglasses into the referee’s hand. Gavin Taylor takes off his entrance attire and shrugs, handing it to the referee too before they get ready for their match.

 

Sharper: “Time for what may be one of the most unpredictable matches in recent SCW history.”

 

Knots: “Unpredictable. How about crazy? Nicole Kinneck is about to wrestle in a duck onesie!”

 

Lyman: “Don’t let the image shock you though. They won the Trios Tournament too. And we heard Gavin and Nicole earlier…they’re doing this for Xander.”

 

Knots: “And I heard Ace and he’s going Duck hunting!”

 

 Icon For Hire” by Cynics and Critics plays as the crowd gives a mixed reaction. A few moments pass as the lights flash in tune with the music. Lexy Chapel walks out from the back and spins around before pointing to the curtain as Ace Marshall walks out wearing a duster and cowboy hat. Autumn Valentine walks out with her SCW Television Championship. Both wear their World Tag Team Championship. Autumn does her AVM hand gesture as Lexy turns around and looks out at the crowd. Ace smirks and walks around the stage as Autumn Valentine heads to the ring, laser-focused. Matt Hodges then saunters out after them. Ducky puts on a mean face at this point.

 

Phillips: “Next, accompanied by Lexy Chapel and Matt Hodges…representing LexyCorp, they are Lexy Chapel Presents Lexy’s Angels, the SCW World Tag Team Champions, Ace Marshall and the SCW Television Champion, Autumn Valentine!”

 

Autumn reaches the ring and looks up. She then pulls herself onto the apron. She wipes her feet and steps inside. Lexy and Ace get to the ring. Lexy turns and snaps at Matt Hodges who stops, holding his hands up as Lexy is lifted onto the apron by Ace. Ace rolls in after. Lexy runs over and holds up Autumn’s arm before turning back as Ace gets up and starts to slide down his entrance attire. Lexy shows him off as Matt Hodges walks around, rolling his eyes. Lexy takes Ace’s entrance attire as Autumn hands her the TV Title. Ace and Autumn then take off their tag team titles as Ducky’s eyes dart around. Steve Hollinsworth takes the titles and raises them over his head. The SCW World Tag Team Championship logo comes across the screen before fading to the bottom corner.

 

Sharper: “Ace Marshall and Autumn Valentine have two managers. Two titles.”

 

Knots: “Will they leave with all of them?”

 

Lyman: “This whole situation with Matt Hodges though. It’s clear he put Allocco up to attacking Xander. Now he’s focusing on Ace. Said as much.”

 

Sharper: “There’s something else going on here. Either way, the focus should be on the Tag Team Championship.”

 

Hollinsworth hands off the title and steps back. Nicole keeps focusing on Hodges as Ace notices this. Autumn stretches as Gavin does too. The bell sounds and Ducky runs at the ropes, trying to reach through to grab at Hodges, while holding her hands up for fisticuffs. Ace runs over and grabs her and throws her back. Ducky gets up and runs at Ace who promptly drops her with a clothesline. The crowd boos. Ace shakes his head and turns as Gavin nails him with a hard right and then a back chop before a hard right. Ace falls back to the ropes and Autumn runs forward and forearms Gavin in the jaw. Gavin staggers back as Nicole rolls to the apron. Ace starts to get up as Autumn forearms Gavin again and then pushes him into the ropes and goes to whip him across, but Gavin spins through and sends Autumn at Ace. Ace lowers his head and back drops Autumn up, but Autumn spins through to the apron. Ace steps up as Gavin runs at him and goes for a clothesline, but Autumn hits a pump kick. Gavin staggers back and Ace grabs him and hits a stunner. He goes for the pin.

 

Sharper: “Ace and Autumn working together. Autumn helping Ace. They’ve become closer over the year.”

 

Knots: “Not like Lexy and Autumn though!”

Hodges sees this and smirks, walking around the ring, telling Ducky to come at him. Ducky turns and exits the ring. She walks around and points at him.

 

Ducky: “No Skittles for you!”

 

Hodges mocks her as Autumn turns and grabs Gavin, but Gavin suddenly lifts her up and throws her into the corner.

 

Sharper: “Ducky in her own way helping.”

 

Lyman: “I have no clue how to describe the tactics here. This is nothing like a normal tag match!”

 

Gavin shoulders Autumn in the ribs and then again. He steps back and pulls her out into a short-arm clothesline. The crowd ohs. Autumn rolls over. Gavin walks around the ring, checking on Ducky. Ducky turns and smiles and waves at him. Autumn turns and reaches out for Ace, but Gavin runs over and grabs her by the head and pulls her away.

Ducky then gets up and runs across the ring and nails Ace with a shot to the throat. The crowd cheers. Ace turns and falls to a knee. Lexy looks at Nicole, stunned. Hodges just chuckles as Ducky turns, wiggling her duck tail before running at Autumn, who suddenly hits a spinning heel kick. The crowd ohs and boos.

 

Sharper: “And this may be the biggest wild card. Ducky’s attention. Autumn with the spinning heel kick.”

 

Lyman: “Not like Autumn can tag though. Ace is still trying to remember how to breathe.”

Knots: “And the heat just got turned up a bit!”

 

Lyman: “That was a bit more aggressive than I figured we’d get in this one.”

The crowd ohs. Ace sits up. He turns and exits to the apron. He looks around and climbs up to the top rope. Hodges is forced away from Nicole as Nicole crawls along the floor. Ace gets to the top rope as we then see Ravyn Taylor, dressed in her casual clothes. She then starts to come down to the ring, dabbing her eye with a Kleenex. She appears to even be crying.

 

Sharper: “What the hell is this now?”

 

Knots: “Ravyn Taylor coming out here….she crying?”

 

Sharper: “Looks like it.”

 

Knots: “She can do that? Like biologically…she’s able to cry?!”

 

Lexy turns and sees Ravyn as Ravyn heads around the ring and then past Hodges. Hodges turns and sees this, trying to make sense of it as Ravyn yells in the ring. Ace looks over at Ravyn.

Gavin gets his shoulder up. Ravyn then turns and looks around before going over to Nicole and helping her up. Nicole turns, immediately, in a fighting stance. Ravyn immediately puts her hands up, pleading with her.

 

Ravyn: “Nicole….please…I need to tell Gavin…our uncle…”

 

Nicole is looking at Ravyn, her demeanour changes to deadly serious.

 

Ravyn: “I know…so much pain…Xander….and now Uncle Roy…just…”

 

Nicole: “I got this…FOR ROY…AND XANDER!”

 

Nicole gets up, now reinvigorated and pulls herself up. Ravyn looks at her, continuing to sniffle and be mournful as Matt Hodges walks over and grabs Ravyn.

 

Hodges: “What the hell are you on?”

 

Ravyn: “My uncle Roy!”

 

Hodges: “You’re not related! Why does it matter-“

 

Nicole: “LEAVE HER ALONE!”

 

Nicole then dives off and tackles Hodges down. The crowd roars as Nicole takes him down. Lexy at this point is even cheering, jumping up and down. Ace then turns and smirks seeing this. Ravyn continues to dab her eyes as she backs up. Ace turns to her and shrugs. Ravyn nods as Ace turns back and grabs Gavin, but Gavin hits a jawbreaker.

 

Sharper: “Ravyn Taylor has derailed this.”

 

Lyman: “Not derailed Nicole. She’s kicking Hodges’s ass and Lexy Chapel even loves it!”

 

Nicole then turns and sees Gavin getting up. Nicole climbs onto the apron.

 

Nicole: “Gavin! We need to do it for Roy! For Roy! Tag me in!”

 

Nicole jumps up and down as Gavin comes over and tags her in.

 

Gavin: “Roy?”

 

Nicole then flips into the ring and runs over at Ace and nails him with a couple of shots before spinning around and running at Autumn. Nicole nails Autumn and spins back as she tells Gavin to come over. They both head over and grab Ace and kick him in the ribs. They whip him across. Ace bounces off and Gavin scoops up Ace and slams him down as Nicole runs into the ropes, diving off and hitting a running splash.

Autumn pushes her off. Gavin then turns and grabs Autumn and Autumn nails him in the ribs with a couple of shots. Ravyn looks on and starts to chant “Gavin! Gavin!” Gavin ignores this as he tries to cover up and Autumn grabs him again the ropes. Hodges starts to get up and looks up and grabs the leg of Autumn. Autumn tries to pull out, but Gavin spins through. Autumn looks down as Gavin then hits a hip toss. Autumn rolls up and turns and Nicole pulls down the top rope and Autumn goes up and over from the momentum. She winces as Ace gets up and nails Nicole in the ribs. He nails her again as the official tries to get Nicole out as Gavin then turns and Nicole scraps a bit, but Ace shoves her down. Ace then backs up and Gavin hoists him up onto his shoulders. The crowd roars before Gavin drops Ace with the Valhalla Has Fallen. Ravyn even cheers this.

 

Sharper: “Shades of Xander Valentine!”

 

Knots: “Guess no longer for Roy…now Xander!”

 

Lyman: “This is just chaos!”

 

Nicole falls to the apron as Gavin goes for the pin. Lexy tries to get Autumn up.

The bell sounds. The crowd roars. Gavin rolls off. Nicole crawls in, stumbling over herself, and grabs Gavin. Ravyn cheers too as she throws her arms up before then bringing her tissue to her eye, almost crying tears of joy. She then waits as Nicole turns to Ravyn. Ravyn looks up and points to the sky as Nicole looks genuinely touched. She then grabs Gavin. Lexy Chapel at this point has stormed over to Matt Hodges, yelling at him. Matt ignores her and walks around before heading to the back.

 

Phillips: “Here are your winners, via pinfall, and NEW SCW World Tag Team Champions, Gavin Taylor and Nicole ‘Ducky’ Kinneck!”

 

Sharper: “Gavin and Nicole are the new tag champs! They’ve pinned Ace Marshall. Autumn Valentine unable to get back in the ring!”

 

Lyman: “Hodges and Chapel at each other’s throats. Ravyn Taylor pointing to the sky. Nicole…”

 

Knots: “You’re trying to make sense of whatever Ravyn is doing! She’s playing on a level no one knows. And it involves the child-like Ducky!”

 

Sharper: “It doesn’t matter, but using Xander Valentine’s finisher, Gavin Taylor and Nicole Kinneck are the SCW World Tag Team Champions!”

 

Ace remains down as Lexy keeps yelling at Hodges, who just heads to the back. She then turns to the ring, angry as Nicole leaves the ring to hug Ravyn. Ravyn pulls away a bit as Gavin now notices that Ravyn is out here and looks around. Nicole turns and takes her title and throws it in the ring and rolls in. She runs over and grabs it, hugging it.

 

Nicole: “FOR XANDY! FOR ROY!”

 

Gavin: “Roy?”

 

Gavin continues to be confused as Ravyn now lets a brief smirks as the scene cuts to the announce position.

 

Sharper: “New Tag Champs. New Adrenaline Champion. New United States Champion.”

 

Knots: “New Underground Champion.”

 

Sharper: “It’s been a wild night. But will we see every title on the line here at Body, Heart, and Soul change hands. Because next. Holly Adams gets her rematch. Selena Frost can’t be disqualified or she loses the title. SCW World Championship on the line!”

 

A recap video plays showing the history of Selena Frost vs. Holly Adams BRAND…trademarked.

SCW World Championship

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

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

Sharper: “Holly Adams down here with everyone including Giovanni Aries.”

 

Knots: “She got one thing she wanted. If Selena gets disqualified, then she loses the title.”

 

Sharper: “Yeah, but Holly has a practical army out here.”

 

BELIEVE IT!

The SCW Universe are on their feet as “Kings and Queens” by Ava Max as plays throughout the arena, snow “falling” along the electronic floor and screens as, out from the back walks the Snow Queen, Selena Frost, taking in the crowd of the SCW Universe. The crowd gives a mixed reaction as Selena glances around the arena, holding the SCW World Championship over her shoulder. She glances back as Deanna Frost walks out with her.

Slowly, Selena shifts her head, her sapphire eyes locked towards the ring as she lifts her front hand gracefully, extending it towards the ring, palm upward, her back arm lifted behind her to the sky. With a lift of her right foot, she suddenly slams it down into the ground, causing a crack like ice to form and sprint down the ramp and towards the ring! Deanna runs with her.

Reaching the ring, Selena slides under the ropes to enter it. She gets up and lifts her hand up to give a twirl as the lights form to make a massive snowflake under her. She holds her World Title over her head as Deanna slides in too. Stopping her spin and lowering her hand back down, towards the audience, once again palm upright, a smirk graces Selena’s lips, her other arm lifting to the sky once more. With a slam of her foot, Selena caused the snowflake at her feet to “crack” as the rampway did, the shards of ice streaking out to all four corners of the ring to shoot out blue sparkles of light as the lights return to normal. She looks around as the crowd roars. She turns to Holly as Jason Phillips steps up and Selena backs up to her corner, joined by Deanna.

 

Sharper: “The World Champion here with her wife.”

 

Knots: “So it’s even!”

 

Lyman: “Not when you have the camera crew out here and just the sheer mass of humanity there.”

 

Phillips stands in the middle of the ring.

 

Phillips: “The following contest is your main event of the evening, scheduled for onefall and has a sixty minute time limit and is for the SCW World Championship!”

 

The crowd cheers.

 

Phillips: “In addition, should Selena Frost be disqualified, she will lose the SCW World Championship!”

 

The crowd boos.

 

Phillips: “First, to my left, accompanied by the Real Housewives Crew and Giovanni Aries, representing the Holly Adams Brand…TRADEMARKED…she is the challenger, from Beverly Hills, California, she is Holly Adams!”

 

The crowd boos as Holly steps up, giving her pageant wave. One cameraman enters the ring and gets a good shot as Holly plays to them before the camera angle changes to Selena.

 

Phillips: “Her opponent, accompanied by Deanna Frost, from Nome, Alaska, by way of New York City, New York, she is the SCW World Champion, the Snow Queen, Selena Frost!”

 

Selena steps up, holding her title over her head. She looks right at Holly as the crowd roars. Selena then turns and hands off the title to Aaron Demitra who holds it over his head. The SCW World Championship logo comes across the screen.

 

Sharper: “Holly Adams ready. Selena Frost ready. Aaron Demitra is your official.”

 

Shaun Cruze then walks down to the ring. He has SCW officials with him and he turns and walks over to Deanna. Holly just smirks as Selena turns to the crowd. Selena, at first, is more disappointed, before a smirk cover over her face. Shaun then turns and walks over to the Real Housewives camera crew, motioning for them to leave.

 

Sharper: “And wait a minute. Shaun Cruze, our commissioner, down here, and I guess he’s making another decision.”

 

Lyman: “Deanna Frost is heading to the back, but looks like everyone else is too!”

 

Cruze motions to the crew and Holly walks over to the ropes.

 

Holly: “They’re here to make sure we have PERFECT footage of my World Title win!”

 

Cruze: “They’re not at ringside. They can get the footage from SCW.”

 

Holly: “They don’t get my good side!”

 

Holly keeps yelling at Cruze as the camera crew walks around, guided by the SCW officials who continue to usher them up the rampway. The crowd cheers as Cruze looks around. Cruze then turns and looks under the ring briefly before walking around the ring. Beard walks with him. Cruze then lifts up another side before motioning. Beard does too. The camera comes around to show Giovanni Aries cross-legged under the ring.

 

Sharper: “Giovanni Aries even caught! He slipped under the ring!”

 

Knots: “Cruze realizing he was out here.”

 

Lyman: “We may have this be one on one!”

 

The crowd cheers as Giovanni starts to meditate. Cruze turns to Phillips, telling him something.

 

Phillips: “Fans, if Giovanni Aries refuses to leave the ringside area, Shaun Cruze will rule that Holly Adams has forfeited this match!”

 

The crowd roars, while some boo. Holly turns back.

 

Holly: “What is wrong with you? You have a perfectly good champion with me here and he’s here to keep me grounded! To help promote the BRAND…trademarked!”

 

Cruze: “Well you can prove it by yourself!”

 

Holly throws her arms up as Selena smirks and walks along the ropes. Cruze looks at Giovanni Aries as Aries slowly rolls over and onto the mats. He slowly gets up and looks at Beard before shaking his head and then turning to Shaun Cruze.

 

Sharper: “And after all of the interference in the last match, clearly Shaun is making sure no more controversy tonight.”

 

Lyman: “Giovanni Aries taking his time here.”

 

Giovanni continues to look at Shaun Cruze. He closes his eyes briefly before then turning and calmly walking around the ring. Beard walks with him. Cruze glances under the ring again, getting a good look before turning and starting to follow Beard and Aries. Cruze turns to Demitra, giving a thumbs up. Demitra turns and calls for the bell. Holly turns to Selena as Selena looks at her. The crowd roars.

 

Sharper: “Cruze giving the a-ok and here we go!”

 

Lyman: “Going to be one on one! World Title on the line!”

 

Selena and Holly then step up to one another, jawing at each other. Holly then says something Selena as Selena says something back and Holly then steps back before turning and going to grab Selena. Selena and Holly lock up in the middle of the ring. Selena turns into a side headlock. She pulls back as Holly yells out as Selena pulls up on her facemask. Holly pulls Selena back into the ropes and fires her off. Selena bounces off and Holly steps up only for Selena to shoulder her down. The crowd roars. Holly looks up as Selena then runs into the ropes. Holly rolls toward her and Selena hops over. She bounces off the other side. Holly gets up and goes for a hip toss, but Selena spins through and takes her down with a hip toss. Holly gets back up and Selena hits another hip toss and Holly rolls to the floor. She looks around as the crowd cheers. (1)

 

Sharper: “And Selena ready to go! Holly to the floor!”

 

Lyman: “Get that distance to slow it down, but Selena came with a purpose!”

 

Knots: “Holly has her purpose. She just forgot to pay hose five easy payments!”

 

Holly paces a bit as Selena steps back and waits. (2) Holly turns to the ring. She then takes a deep breath before turning and hopping onto the apron. Demitra tells her to get into the ring. Holly just glares at him as Selena remains ready. Holly then steps inside. She turns to Demitra before turning and running at Selena. Selena then hits an arm drag. Holly rolls through and gets up and steps to Selena again, only for Selena to hit another arm drag and grab the arm. Holly winces as Selena leans over, driving her forearm into the face of Holly. Holly kicks the mat and Selena pulls on the arm. Holly starts to slowly get her feet under her. Selena waits for her to get up and then grabs the arm and wrenches it. Holly grimaces in pain. Selena jerks on the arm.

 

Lyman: “Working over the arm early and remember, last month at End of the Year Special, the Glass Shard less effective thanks to the facemask.”

 

Sharper: “Focusing on the arm instead. Maybe looking for the Frost’s Bite!”

 

Holly winces. Selena then pushes Holly into the ropes and fires her off. Holly bounces off and Selena jumps up and hits a dropkick. Holly falls back as Selena goes for the pin.

Holly kicks out. Selena gets up and Holly gets up and Selena grabs the left arm again and wrenches it. Holly turns and rakes the eyes. Selena pulls away. The crowd boos as Holly follows up and forearms her in the jaw. She kicks her in the ribs before grabbing Selena and running her face first into the nearby corner. Selena turns back and Holly steps up and forearms her again. Holly then grabs her and whips her across the ring. Holly runs after and Selena jumps up and floats over. Holly stops at the corner and turns around and Selena takes her down again with an arm drag and then hooks the arm.

 

Sharper: “Selena going for the arm again. And it’s a simple strategy!”

 

Knots: “Yeah and for $29.95, I’ll tell Holly how to get out of it!”

 

Lyman: “Shouldn’t I? Being the former wrestler.”

 

Knots: “Then it’s not a grift!”

 

Holly reaches around and Selena pulls back. Holly starts to get up to her feet and Holly grabs at the hair of Selena. Demitra calls for the break as Holly gets Selena back to the ropes and then turns and spins through and hits a hip toss on Selena. Holly goes to grab her. Selena kicks Holly back, pushing off Holly’s face. Holly rolls through. Selena gets up and Holly runs at Selena and Selena lifts her up and back drops her. The crowd cheers. Holly staggers up to her feet and Selena hits another dropkick. She follows up for the pin.

Lyman: “Yeah. She got the win. She pinned Holly Adams, but not again without controversy and this time, thanks to Kimberly Williams!”
