Zion Wrestling Presents: Friday Night Fusion Episode 79!!

[Kai Morgan]

As the opening video closes, the lights to the Hiroshima Green Arena go out, the stage illuminating to the beat of the second half of the second verse!

We looked at the price tag, and it's one we can't afford
We were taught that progression means accumulating more…

Just then, the arena bursts to life, with lights spanning the entire arena as we pan over the crowd packing the stands! We go to the commentary booth where Eddie Red Apples and Amber Westgate are standing by!

Eddie Red Apples: We’re in the final stretch here, as we come as close as we’ve ever been to reaching our Destiny! Welcome everyone…to Friday Night Fusion! I’m Eddie Red Apples, joined as always by Amber Westgate!

Amber Westgate: We’ve got a huge night in store for you, with two huge championship matches! But for now, we start off with the challenger for the World Heavyweight Championship!

“Warrior” by Stitched Up Heart begins and Jordan Majors walks out on the stage in jeans and a Jessi Ozborne t-shirt. She skips past her typical entrance poses and goes straight toward the ring. She grabs a microphone on the outside and begins speaking as she walks up the ring steps.

Jordan Majors: I’ve got something I want to say to our champion.

Jordan paces back and forth in the ring as she stares at the entrance way. The crowd builds in anticipation at the silence. Jordan stops and scans the crowd.

Jordan Majors: Thing is, I don’t even know if ARIA is back there tonight. I wouldn’t blame her for wanting a night off after what she’s dealt with the last month or so. Matter of fact, ARIA, I want to congratulate you on your win over Mai last week, and tell you that my presence at the end of that match wasn’t meant in any sort of disrespect. No, it was just me wanting to stand toe-to-toe with the person I’m about to face at Destiny. You and I, we haven’t really had the opportunity to stand across from each like that, have we? In a lot of ways I think you and I were both robbed of that in January. But I know one thing that you absolutely believe. You knew, if you planned on having a long reign with that championship… you knew there would be a time you had to get past me. Because from the moment I lost that championship on your waist because of a briefcase, I made it perfectly clear that I wasn’t going to stop coming for it until I got the chance to take it back.

The crowd reacts in a loud mix of mostly cheers drowning out a contingent of fans cheering for the champion.

Jordan Majors: You see, ARIA, I envy you. You won the title on an episode of Fusion and you were so celebrated. The people’s champion, and rightfully so. Even I appreciate you. The way you fight. The way they will love you regardless of what you do or say. There’s a perfection to that humility and kindness that we don’t see all that often. You and Razzles are basically one-of-a-kind in your own regards. Me? I can’t hide it when I’m disappointed. I’m not the type that can just shrug off the bad moments and forget about it. I’m the type that will let frustration boil over the top because I can’t keep that lid on. That’s why I took your spot at Wargames. And I paid for it, didn’t I?

That’s really the story of Jordan Majors. I’ve never been perfect. I’ve never been considered the best in the ring or on the mic. Never the fastest or the strongest. I’m 27 years old, I’ve been wrestling for 9 years, and I have one world title. I held it for less than a minute. There was no celebration for me as World Champion. There was a funeral. If I wasn’t someone who was beaten around by their own mother as a child, I’m not sure whether or not I would have been so hellbent to get back up and keep coming back for that championship.

There’s a sort of wicked reaction to those sobering words from Jordan, who paces the ring for a moment and then faces the hard camera again.

Jordan Majors: I envy that you got to win and got to celebrate it. Relish in it. You’ve loved being a champion. I admire the way you’ve defended that title. And I know as we are set to face each other right now, you probably think this is just about me reclaiming what I lost. But what you don’t understand is that I don’t want that title back just because I was robbed of a proper reign. I’m haunted by that championship. Beating Zachary Porter was supposed to be my moment. But instead I did the hard work for someone else. They stole my moment. And then they just left. The remnants of their group continued to screw with me while you celebrated with your new championship. And it was never that you didn’t deserve it. It’s just that I was NEVER going to stop coming for it.

And here we are, right? I’ve conquered my demons. I outlasted most of what this roster has to offer. I’ve passed all the hurdles that this company has placed in front of me to reach this point. But the devil is resting on your waist. At Destiny there can only be one conclusion. I’m sorry that it has to be you. Because I respect you. But this isn’t about you. I have to right this wrong and you are in the wrong place at the wrong time. I have to win back that championship… It’s the only way forward for me. I have to walk out of Destiny as the World Heavyweight Championship because there is no other option for me. You might not have to face me here tonight, but in just a few weeks you will face me on the biggest stage this company has to offer. And you will see me… as the new champion. Take it to the bank, champ. Because…

Jordan Majors and the Crowd: Jordan Majors is money!

Jordan smiles as she tosses the microphone over her left shoulder and then looks up at the tron as her music starts to play. A graphic of the ARIA vs. Jordan match displays with the Championship between them. Jordan climbs the turnbuckle and points to the graphic and then to her waist as she shouts out at the crowd and grins once more.

She pushes the champion down to a knee, causing her to struggle even more! Eventually, Dorsey fights back, pushing her way to her feet before unloading a Stomp right onto Skye’s foot!

Alex Lawson: The winner of this match…and STILL the FIGHTING! SPIRIT! CHAMPION!...DARIA! DORSEY!

Eddie Red Apples: Daria Dorsey retains, once again using someone’s own finisher against them!

Amber Westgate: This new Zenith is an absolute menace, Eddie! I’d put nothing past her by this point!

After Daria was victorious after her match, and presented with the Fighting Spirit Championship, she would raise it above her head and cockily trashed Chelsea Skye after her victory, as she was being booed while she was handed a mic.

Daria Dorsey
"The most relevant defense this title has ever seen, and you people are so ungrateful for it. And you…"

She said, looking down at Chelsea Skye, who seemed to be out of commission after the match.

Daria Dorsey
"For you, this was the highlight of your time in Zion. For me, a real star, this is just another Friday night. Play my theme, I got a little parting gift for you!"

She said, shouting to the crew, as "Still" by Geto Boys began to play, as Daria would start to stomp away at Chelsea, as she would rap her own theme while beating her up.

Daria Dorsey
"Back! Up in yo ass! With the resurrection! It's the group! Harder than an erection! That shows no affection!

They wanna ban us on Capitol Hill! Cause, it's die! Mother! Fuckers! Die! Mother! Fulkerson! Still!"

She shouted, stomping on Chelsea with every exclamation, as she was balling up to try and protect herself. There's a mixed reaction from the crowd to Daria's actions, as we hear “Falling Apart” by zebrahead begin to play, and Robert Kaiden Oakley rushing to the ring to her aid. He goes in to try and stop her with the RKO, but, she shoved him away to make a hasty retreat, and left the mic behind while looking up at him while heading backwards up the ramp. Rob noticed the microphone, and picks it up, beginning to speak.

Robert Kaiden Oakley: ”LEMME TALK TO YA! Snakeman has a few choice words for you, you raging snake bitch!”

Rob would point at Daria, who’s stood on the ramp.

Robert Kaiden Oakley: ”You… you took the thing that gave me everything I earned in Zion… I fought… I scratched… I goddamn clawed my way into EARNING that belt… and you… you trash it? You treat it like it’s less than anything else on this roster? You treat it as if it were The Ball?… I don’t know about everyone here tonight… but I LOVE The Ball!”

Rob looks around at the people cheering for “The Ball” and smiles, as Daria continues to look annoyed.

Robert Kaiden Oakley: ”No. That championship belt you are holding is as important as the person holding it. So if you’re seeing it as something of little value, maybe it’s just because you see little value in yourself… and I mean, considering you have ‘Daria Dorsey aka Tits McGee’ on social media, I think that sorta tracks, don’t you?”

”Lets just cut the shit. I’m still owed a championship rematch, Daria… and we’re slowly building up to Zions biggest show of the year! So… here I am, TELLING you. That at Destiny? The Snakeman is taking back his Fighting Spirit Championship.”

With that, Rob throws the mic down before climbing the turnbuckle, posing for the fans, before pointing to Daria, and signaling he’s coming for his belt. The camera would cut back to Daria, as she mouthed to him inaudibly, "You're on" as she was goaded to a fight with him, while making her exit.

WINNER: DARIA DORSEY (#ANDSTILL)
RESULT: SUBMISSION (SKYE’S THE LIMIT)



Throughout the mansion, multiple wedding planners and other folks are roaming around the space. Dinah is sipping on a glass of wine, dressed in a black dress that clings to her body. There’s a dangerously low v-cut at the chest area and she motions with a hand.

DINAH WOLFE: Can we try the other color, please?

The men moving furniture and other things around nod before swapping out the covers for a different shade. Dinah nods, smiling brightly, seemingly pleased with the sight she’s been blessed with.

DINAH WOLFE: C’est magnifique! Merci.

She smiles softly, making a mental note to pay the men handsomely for the hard work they’ve dedicated to her and Rob for their upcoming wedding. They would be getting married at Dinah’s former family mansion, one she now owned herself. Her attention turns towards the camera finally, nodding curtly.

DINAH WOLFE: I almost forgot you were there. I suppose I should speak about the terrible actions that befell me?

Dinah turns her nose up, clearly still frustrated about how things had turned out the last time she had been seen. Her opponent tonight, Jack Morrison, had lashed out and attacked her after she stuck her claim to Alexis Lemon’s Internet Championship.

DINAH WOLFE: I suppose it is a bit unfortunate that the official failed to recognize where Jack very obviously had a foot on the ropes. But, that is simply no excuse to make an enemy out of someone who was just doing what anyone else would do. But, it’s going to be far more unfortunate for Jack at the end of our match.

Dinah rolls her neck from one side to the next, downing the remains of her wine as she sets the glass aside for now. She moves to stand at the spiral staircase, leaning against the railing as the camera person gets a good view and angle.

DINAH WOLFE: I am tired of people walking all over me as if I am a mere stepping stone. I am over people putting their hands on me when I have done nothing wrong. Jack has pushed a button quite frankly? He should have never pushed to begin with and if he thinks he’s going to stand a chance against someone as cunning as I am?

Dinah chuckles softly, shaking her head as she inhales a deep breath. She reigns in her frustration, clears her throat before starting again.

DINAH WOLFE: I almost felt sorry for you, Jack. Almost, but not quite. As far as I am concerned, you’re a mere roadblock that I will ensure to knock out of my way. I’ve never met a challenge I couldn’t handle and you will be no different. I was not placed into the business of wrestling to just be. I was born to be a star and if that means starting here? Starting over?

Dinah nods, licking over her lips with trepidation. Clearly trying to stay on track and on top of her thoughts.

DINAH WOLFE: I have no problem making an example out of you. Especially after you decided to put your hands on someone you have no fucking clue about. So, I do hope dear sweet Lemon is watching tonight. She’s going to be quite close. But, she’s going to get the show of a lifetime when I’m through with Jacky boy.

Dinah grins brightly, winking at the camera after a moment as the scene slowly fades to black.



MATCH #2: DINAH WOLFE VS JACK “THE RIPPER” MORRISON



Wolfe and Morrison show absolutely no sense of tact in this one, going for each other with strikes immediately after the bell rings! Morrison is able to get the upper hand early, catching Wolfe off guard with a non-telegraphed boot to the midsection, before throwing her into the corner! He runs to the opposite corner, looking to hit her with a Body Splash! But Wolfe gets out of the way, leaving Morrison to collide with the turnbuckles on his own! Wolfe grabs him up from behind, before dropping him with a Snap German Suplex! Morrison immediately rolls back to his knees, with Wolfe hitting the ropes and nailing him with a Running Bicycle Knee Strike! Cover by Wolfe, only getting the two count!

Wolfe pulls Morrison back to his feet, looking to uncork a huge European Uppercut onto him to send him right back down! She goes for the swing, but Morrison dodges, getting Wolfe in position before dropping her a Dragon Suplex! He pulls her back up, getting her in position before dropping her with a Sit Out Powerbomb! He goes for the pin, only getting the two count before Wolfe kicks out! Morrison rolls her to her knees before getting up himself, grabbing her by the arm and pulling her in for a Knee Strike! He keeps a hold of the arm, pulling Wolfe in once again, this time with a Short Arm Lariat! Pin by The Ripper, only getting a two count!

Morrison looks to finish this off, waiting for Wolfe to get up before looking for Stabbing in the Dark! But Wolfe dodges the Superkick, before taking Morrison down with a Backstabber! She looks to fly, taking to the top rope for a move! But Morrison is back up again, knocking Wolfe off balance before setting her up and hitting her with Straight to Hell (Towers of London)! Pin by Morrison, only getting the two count! Morrison backs into the corner, looking to end this one with Dear Boss! He runs for it, but Wolfe dodges, sending him into the ropes! Wolfe rushes up, sending them both over and to the outside with a Cactus Clothesline!

Morrison gets back to his feet first, trying to pull Wolfe up! But Wolfe reverses with a Knee Lift to the midsection! She gives Alexis Lemon a look at ringside, before deciding to be petty by throwing Morrison directly into the Internet Champion! The pulls Morrison back to his feet, with Morrison now beginning to fight back with strikes! Wolfe battens him down with a few of her own, before throwing him back into the ring! Before she can re-enter herself however, Alexis Lemon rushes in, bashing her from behind! The referee sees this and calls for the bell, ending this match in a DQ.



Eddie Red Apples: It seems that chaos has erupted at ringside. Amber!

Amber Westgate: That’s an understatement, Eddie! The champ was not gonna take that disrespect lying down!

Lemon and Wolfe continue to brawl at ringside as Morrison begins to scream at the referee, once again infuriated that he’s lost a match due for backwards reasons! The slides out of the ring and joins the fray, with all three competitors having to be dragged apart by security as we fade!

WINNER: DINAH WOLFE
RESULT: DISQUALIFICATION



The lovely Viral Champion Gianna Rojas is spotted, she's dressed already for her match tonight in sparkly bright colored gear and she smiles as she walks along the back hallway. The match she's got tonight of course is a tag match, almost a strange bedfellows type in that her partner is one of the two people she'll be facing at the pay-per-view for the championship gold currently nestled around her trim waist. Yet if this bothers her a bit, the genuine smile on her face and her happy energy doesn't show it at all, and as she notices the camera following she excitedly waves them closer as she begins to speak while still moving right along.

Gianna Rojas: Hola fans y amigas!Tonight, a much different match than I'm used to, pero no te preocupes!

She nods, a mock serious expression for a moment before she laughs delightedly, gesturing with her words and ending with a finger pointed at the camera for a few seconds.

Gianna Rojas: Creo que la mayoría sentiría que no podría ganar con Tajnia Mustafi como mi pareja... pero.

That finger waves before she drops her hand to rest on her championship belt, nodding a bit as she keeps moving, her expression staying bright, excited.

Gianna Rojas: Puede que no la conozca personalmente, y aunque sé que vendrá después de mi Campeonato Viral... Siento que al igual que yo, ella querrá GANAR. Conozco a otros que entrenaron con Ricky Valero en Valero Fight Club, y bueno ¡TODOS QUIEREN SER GANADORES!

An actual, honest to God fist pump at this, which makes her laugh with delight once more.

Gianna Rojas: Entonces, con eso en mente, estoy dispuesto a confiar en ella de campana a campana. ¡Durante este combate de lucha, seremos un equipo, nos enfrentaremos a The United Elite y haremos todo lo posible para salir victoriosos! Pase lo que pase, haré lo mejor que pueda esta noche. ¡Nos vemos por ahí!

Gianna claps her hands before nodding and then taking off at a more rapid pace, not wanting to be late for her own entrance mere moments away!



MATCH #3: THE UNITED ELITE VS GIANNA ROJAS & TAJNIA MUSTAFI



Elijah Copeland originally looks to start off for his team! However, as soon as he sees Tajnia Mustafi do the same, he decides to immediately tag in Oliver Peters instead! Peters and Mustafi circle the ring around each other before going for a Collar-and-Elbow Tie Up! Peters gets the upper hand with a Top Wristlock before Mustafi pushes back and takes him down with a Arm Drag! Peters rushes towards Mustafi to get the advantage again, only for Mustafi to sidestep him and send him into the ropes! Peters comes back, nailing Mustafi with a Knee Strike before she can take advantage! He gets her position for a German Suplex, but Mustafi pries his arms apart to escape before getting around him and nailing him with a Ripcord Elbow! Pin by Mustafi, only getting a two!

Mustafi decides to tag in Gianna Rojas, before wringing Peters’ arm and waiting for her to come down with a Diving Double Ax Handle! Peters is able to escape however, pulling Mustafi in for a Headbutt before catching Rojas out of midair with a Knee Strike! He drags the Viral Champion to the corner before tagging in Elijah Copeland! Peters gets Rojas in a German Suplex position, with Copeland sending her down with a Superkick! Copeland follows up, hitting the ropes and nailing Rojas with a Basement Dropkick! Pin by Copeland, getting a two count!

He proceeds to beat her down, only being stopped as Gianna Rojas storms the ring with her Viral Championship in hand! Copeland takes off running, leaving Rojas and Mustafi in the ring alone!

Mustafi reaches her feet again, clutching the back of her head! She spots Rojas with the title, giving her the side eye as she seems to believe that she’s behind the post match attack! Rojas tries to explain herself, but Mustafi is hearing none of it, leaving Rojas in the ring without a word as we fade!

WINNERS: THE UNITED ELITE
RESULT: PINFALL (MONEY MAKER)

We cut backstage to find all four members of The Void; the Zion World Tag Team Champions Killer Instinct, Kara “Killer” Carbajal and Miguel Ortiz, Zachary Porter and Eduardo Gutiérrez. Carbajal, Ortiz and Porter are all dressed to compete as Killer Instinct proudly wear their championships over their shoulders while Gutiérrez is dressed in a smart plain dark purple buttoned up shirt and smart plain black pants.

Eduardo Gutiérrez Before Mamacita and mío hermanos say what they gotta say? You wanna keep calling me a little bitch, Ollie? Well mark my words, pendejo… the more you do that? The worse your beating is gonna be at Destiny. See there’s a reason why Mamacita wanted to bring me into The Void… and why Miguel and Zachary allowed that to happen… and that is because I am the future of this business. And I refuse to be embarrassed and humiliated by nothing more than a sideshow freak like you.

The other three nod in agreement and smile as Zach pats Eduardo on the back.

Zachary Porter: Legion. Legion. Legion. Hypocrisy by thy name. You said on Twitter that I wasn’t focused on you, am I right? Then, how do you explain you and your Hive going after the Trios Championships? By the looks of things, your focus hasn’t been one hundred percent on me. Last time I checked, being a champion comes with responsibilities. Being the greatest World Champion Zion has had the privilege of having, I can attest to the weight of being champion. With the likes of Trinity and the other trios floating around, all those teams would have come gunning for you eventually. Nature of things. How were you planning on focusing on me and dealing with an entire Trios Division? Think before you speak next time, doll.

Zachary rolls his eyes.

Zachary Porter: But anyway. Tonight is about vengeance, no-no-no, not my alter ego. I seek vengeance for you being a thorn in my ass. You robbed me of a chance to challenge for the World Championship TWICE. You cost me a match against wrestling’s ultimate Karen, Alexandra Callway, I am TIRED OF YOU TAKING FROM ME! So tonight, I take from you, Legion and your Hive. You experience loss at our hands.

Zachary points to KC and Miguel. Ortiz nodded in agreement as he raised his microphone.

Miguel Ortiz: Time and time again, we have called our shot, and we have accomplished what we said we would do. It hasn’t mattered who it’s been against or what’s been laid out before us. No one else has the tenacity like we do… the want to take wrestling back to what it’s supposed to be about!

Ortiz paused for a second as he looked amongst the group. He smirked as he continued.

Miguel Ortiz: It has never mattered who’s put in front of us as a sacrifice… we’ve overcome them. Facing Legion and her little Hive tonight will be no different. Legion wants to keep interfering in Zach’s business and causing him what is rightfully his? Tonight, she’s going to learn the lesson the hard way. And tonight will be the perfect time for the Deathriders to pay close attention to what happens when you interfere with our business, especially when it doesn’t concern you.

Kara smirks as she places her hand onto Miguel’s shoulder.

Kara "Killer" Carbajal: It seems to be a running pattern here. Somebody sticks their nose into our business… we beat them and take away their gold. It happened to Thotline Miami…

KC points to Ortiz’s title over his shoulder and then points to her own.

Kara "Killer" Carbajal: ...and we won these. The Hive have been sticking their noses in our business… and so tonight? We’ll take the Trios Championships. And The Deathriders? They’ve been sticking their noses in mine and Miguel’s business… so we’re going to take their Tag Team Championships from them as well. Proving without a shadow of a doubt… that The Void are the most dominant force in all of Zion.

Carbajal then puts her closed fist out in front of her as Ortiz and Porter do the same. Gutiérrez looks at the three fists before looking up to his fellow Void family and they all give him a nod and he puts his closed fist next to the others before glaring into the camera.

Eduardo Gutiérrez Get ready, pendejos… for it’s time to Enter the Void.

The scene then fades out before cutting elsewhere.

We fade into a room, the camera centered right upon the sight of Nao Saegusa. A woman who just a few days ago punched a ticket to Destiny II by challenging the former Zion Wrestling Champion, QUEEN Sakamoto, who surprised her by demanding it be a 2 out of 3 falls match. Nao gives a small bow to the camera and once that is done a voice speaks out from off-screen. It is an unfamiliar voice, unless you perhaps watched a single Motor City Wrestling show a month back, sounding quite a lot like a woman that once interviewed Nao there in some ridiculous homage to one of Nao’s shows. The woman asks a simple question.

“How long have you known of QUEEN Sakamoto?”

Nao answers this one easily enough.

“oh, uh, I think I had heard her name a few times before in passing, but I didn’t really know her in any real way before she came through Yūgen. That’s the place we both worked at before Zion.”

“Have you faced QUEEN Sakamoto before?”

A moment passes but Nao nods.

“Yeh, that was the first time I really heard of her. Yūgen had this showcase block of matches on another show or something like that, and I was booked against this independent wrestler to defend the title I had at the time. That was QUEEN.”

“And how did the match go?”

Nao is silent for a moment. The view of her is replaced with video from this match, dated just over two years ago. The Nao of then seems completely certain and confident, a championship around her waist. But even then QUEEN takes up the screen when she’s on it, radiating much the same aura she would show as the Zion Wrestling Champion. And the clips from the match show she had much of the same skill she would showcase on the international stage with Zion, effortlessly taking control of Nao and setting the pace of the match the entire time, beating Nao’s head around. It’s only by luck that Nao managed to get a moment and roll her up for the win. When the view returns to Nao she lowers her head.

“I won, but only by, like, the barest definition. But I was able to put her behind me. We didn’t cross each other’s paths again, not even when we both ended up here in Zion. Until I decided to call her out.”

There is a pause.

“Do you think you are better now than you were then?”

Nao frowns.

“I…don’t know. It’s hard to even remember being the me of then, of being a champion. I don’t know if I’m better, or if I’m…w-well, the opposite of better.”

Another pause.

“Are you better than Faye Brown?”

Nao’s face scrunches up in confusion.

“H-huh? I don’t…”

The voice interrupts her, continuing on.

“Are you better than Diamond Steele?”

Nao starts to try to formulate a response, but the voice continues on.

“Are you better than Minka Carter?”
“Are you better than Razzles Mars?”
“Are you better than Reo Ojima?”
“Are you better than Théa Erzili?”

Nao is silent, seemingly surprised by the turn this is taking, hands balling up.

“While champion, Sakamoto defeated each of them. Do you think you can do what they couldn’t at that point, and then do it again in the same night as well? Are you better than you were before, are you better than those that walked up to Sakamoto? If you can’t say that, then you have just set yourself up for more pain at her hand, haven’t you?”

Nao continues to be silent, closing her eyes for a few moments. When they open she is doing her best.

“It doesn’t matter if I’m better than the people that challenged her before. If I compare myself to every single person in the world I’ll never be happy. I just have to do all I can to be sure I’m ready, and fight. Even against an overwhelming foe, a Hero can’t let that stop her. That’s what’s important to focus on, not who I may or may not be better than!”

There is no reply for a time and when it comes it is focusing on other things.

“Speaking of overwhelming. Morgana Summers.”

Nao grimaces.

“181 days. 10 defenses. Numerically speaking…the greatest champion in Zion history.”

Nao nods.

“Y-yeah, that’s a really…tall order. Her record as a champion speaks for itself, just like QUEEN’s does. But I can’t waver. If I want to make it to Destiny, to even be able to look across the ring at QUEEN Sakamoto and look her in the eye, I have to fight! Even against an overwhelming force, an unclimbable mountain, I still have to climb! So I’ll go out there to Fusion, face down Morgana Summers, and fight with all I have! And at the end of the night…hope that I can be happy with how I did. That’s what will matter most to being ready for the QUEEN.”

At this she gives her best smile, and we fade off to that very match.

MATCH #4: NAO SAEGUSA VS MORGANA SUMMERS



Saegusa is a little tentative with her opponent as we start things off here, not knowing the proper way to approach the former Viral Champion! Summers, however, shows no such hesitation, taking Saegusa down the first chance she has with a Clothesline! She pulls Saegusa up, throwing her into the corner before nailing her with a European Uppercut! She throws back into the center of the ring, with Saegusa getting to her knees before being taken down with a Bicycle Kick from Summers! She goes for the pin, with Saegusa kicking out at two!

Summers tries to get Saegusa back to her feet, only to be shoved into the corner via Shoulder Thrust from the Shining Hero Star! She steps back, looking to run into the corner for another move on Summers! But she reverses, pushing Saegusa over the ropes and onto the apron! She rushes towards Saegusa, catching a Roundhouse Kick over the ropes for her trouble that sends her to the mat! Saegusa capitalizes, dropping onto her with a Slingshot Senton! Pin by Saegusa, only getting the two!

Saegusa looks to wrap this up, taking to the top rope and looking for the Spacium Cut! But Summers is back up to her feet, knocking Saegusa off balance before taking to the top rope with her and tearing her down with a Superplex! She pulls Saegusa up to her feet, before taking her down with Burning Daylight (Delayed Chickenwing Facebuster)! Pin by Summers, with Saegusa kicking out at the last second! Summers looks to end this one, going for the Hexplex! But Saegusa reverses with a few Elbows to the head, before dropping her with a Hip Toss!

Alex Lawson: The winner of this match…Nao! Saegusa!

Eddie Red Apples: An impressive win for Nao Saegusa tonight!

WINNER: NAO SAEGUSA
RESULT: PINFALL (JUSTICE CRASH)

After a short sponsor ad, the cameras return to ringside where the lights dim down, casting darkness on the crowd with a purple hue over the entryway as Dead Star Assembly’s “Send Me An Angel” fills the arena. The crowd goes into a mixed reaction; nobody’s sure where the one of which this music precedes stands lately. She’s spoken of honorable means but has continued to show that she is just as temperamental and unhinged. She signed a contract in her own blood last week, after all. Sure enough, moments into the intro, smoke billows from the entryway and on the first words–

”SEND ME AN ANGEL!

–Zion’s Hardcore Champion, Yukiko Kusanagi steps out in a pair of black, ripped jeans, boots, an old school vintage Queens of Chaos t-shirt and a black hoodie with her “battle vest” handed down from Roni Ozborn over it. In one hand, she clutches the championship belt at her side as she looks out over the crowd. Hood up with her half mask over her face. As the music continues, she approaches the ring, patiently but with a hint of purpose in her step. Yukiko climbs into the ring and stands in the center. She seems to consider climbing a turnbuckle to soak in the crowd for a moment but instead she opts to move across the ring and take a microphone being handed to her from outside. She moves to the center of the ring and lays the Hardcore Title out on the mat in front of her, facing the stage as she plops down on her ass right on the mat, crossing her legs between herself and the belt: her usual sitting position whenever she comes out to speak like this. The music fades and the lights start to turn back to normal but a hand of hers comes up, as if signaling the production crew to keep them how they are. Yukiko sits, surrounded by darkness, basked in violet lighting as she props the elbow of the arm that holds the microphone and angles her head down to speak into the microphone. First in Japanese.

Yukiko Kusanagi: ”If you will all forgive me, I would like to say what I have to say in English. I am not sure the ears that need to hear this understand our language.”

She waits for a moment as a low applause comes from the crowd. Yukiko nods her head and continues.

Yukiko Kusanagi: ”398…180…23…0…”

When she speaks here, she uses English this time. Every word properly and carefully enunciated. Her Japanese accent is less noticeable in favor of that more English European dialect.

Yukiko Kusanagi: ”I am merely shy of 400 days under contract with Zion Wrestling. I am close to half that as Hardcore Champion. We have been over my numbers before. Over a year in this company. Just under half a year as the true Queen of Deathmatch Wrestling. Fitting that I found my family within the Queens of Chaos…innit? 23 opponents. It would be safe to say I have earned my keep here. I have pulled my weight. I have stepped into the ring with 23 of the Zion roster now…and no one… Not a single…fucking…one of you…have been able to survive inside a ring with me. Be you a hardened fighter…a demigoddess…or even a seasoned warrior…who welcomed me into a royal circle with open arms…before she turned her backs on us…”

Yukiko pauses her and lifts her head to the camera, just slightly. In the dark lighting, her face under her hood, over her mask is shadowed yet somehow you can still see the burning rage in her eyes. The crowd murmurs as she holds that glare for a moment. She even lowers her hand with the microphone and tilts her head to the side. Questioningly. She straightens her head and once again tilts it down, lifting the mic back up.

Yukiko Kusanagi: ”It’s Devil to you from now on… I won’t speak your name. You’re not to speak mine. Do you understand?”

Brief pause.

Yukiko Kusanagi: ”Good. Now then…”

The crowd murmurs some more. You can practically cut the tension with a knife. Yukiko remains firm in her resolve as she reaches up and slides her hood back off of her head. As her hand comes down, she pulls her mask down around her neck. Her scowl now visible for all to see under the purple moon like light beaming from above.

Yukiko Kusanagi: ”On with it. I have stepped into this ring…I have stood in the back…talking from the shadows. I feel as if I have begun to sound like a broken record. ‘I am unstoppable. I am unkillable. I am the slasher, you lot in the back are my victims. I am the Devil dragging soul after soul after soul into the fiery pits.’ It gets old, it does. It gets absolutely, fucking old. I extended my respect to Ricky Rodriguez for valor in the ring, last week. That, there, is about all I can afford to offer anyone I step into the ring with. I step into this ring, not immortal by any means. I wrestle with half a bad hand—”

She lifts her other hand up, reminding everyone of the scar, earned from a cage match in 2019 where a spike along the top punctured all the way through her palm and out the back. She flexes her fingers in and out but even then, the ring finger seems to struggle to join the rest all of the way.

Yukiko Kusanagi: ”--and with an ill mind that has the most peculiar effects on my physical body…”

Somewhere in the crowd, scattered fans’ voices call out ”AND YET I SMILE”. Yukiko cracks a grin, her shoulders shaking with a soft laughter as she nods and looks out to the audience.

Yukiko Kusanagi: ”...And yet I smile. I smile…I laugh…I relish in every battle because I have sat here at the top of the Zion Hardcore Division. Murder Queen of the Queens of Chaos. Sat upon the throne of Deathmatch Wrestling. And there is not a single…fucking…thing…any of you, thus far, have been able to do about it!”

Even in her homeland, there are those who understand English and they start getting riled up behind her as she sits up onto a knee and leans forward with her elbow propped against it.

Yukiko Kusanagi: ”So what has it come down to, then? Fate has seen fit to bring the two most unstoppable forces in Zion together. The God…and the Devil. Like you said ISIS…the two most feared names in the entirety of Zion. So much that the fighting champions around us, when given the opportunity to choose their opponents, opt for the smaller fish. They seek sure victories to clutch onto their titles in favor of risking it all to challenge themselves as competitors. To prove that they deserve to sit where they sit. They tremble at what lies beneath them on the rankings list. They fear what lurks in the shadows. They overlook what watches them from the dark because they have that mindset of ‘if I cannot see it, it isn’t real. If I don’t look at it, it cannot hurt me.’ Well, rest assured, Zion. We, yes we, ISIS and I are most certainly here. Gods and Devils are most certainly fucking real. We can and will most certainly FUCKING! HURT YOU!”

At this point, Yukiko grabs up the Hardcore Title from the mat and slings it over her shoulder, pushing to stand up on her feet and look right into the camera. She raises the belt up as she does.

Yukiko Kusanagi: ”This? This is but a testament to what I am inside this ring. I am the Devil of Osaka. I am the demon that casts a silhouette in front of the rising sun of Japan. Now comes a God, into my realm, seeking to challenge me because she thinks of this as some fairy tale where good and light always persevere. No, ISIS. This is not a storybook to read to children at night. This is reality. It is dark. It is horrifying. It is bloody. It is violent. It is where I find the most comfort. I have shown that not just here, but elsewhere as well. I have proven across two companies, among some of the most self proclaimed brutal men and women who spend week after week, flapping their gums—”

She pauses, making sure her title is fixed on her shoulder so it doesn’t fall and makes the yapping motion with her hand.

Yukiko Kusanagi: ”I am someone in this industry - regardless of who you are, regardless of what title you hold, regardless of the most violent battle you have been in - I am someone…that you do. Not. FUCK WITH!”

Yukiko lowers the microphone, grinning wickedly into the camera as the Okayama crowd goes wild around her. She lifts it back up under her mouth.

Yukiko Kusanagi: ”...You have proven the same under the Zion banner, ISIS. Because of that…I smile. I smile because this feels as though it was meant to happen. Call it a prophecy like out of some religious book. A God and a Devil meeting at the pinnacle of battle. I look forward to your challenge, ISIS. I look forward to snuffing out your shining light. We will meet when Destiny brings us together. There, under the dome, the world will know that the Devil is surely real…and that even a God can bleed… And if it bleeds…it can die… Destiny…Tokyo Dome…God vs Devil. Streak vs Streak. You…and me, ISIS. See you…in Hell.”

She drops the microphone to the mat at her feet as Dead Star Assembly’s “Send Me An Angel” starts on the speakers again. Now is when she climbs a turnbuckle and raises the Hardcore Title up to her countrymen just as that first line of the lyrics is called out. Yukiko climbs down and exits the ring. She makes her way back up to the stage, this time, showing a rare side of herself as she reaches one hand out on the way up, touching the hands of the fans in the front row.



The scene opens in the halls of the Momotaro Arena where Interviewer Meliana Rodrigo is standing ready to speak in front of the camera.

Meliana Rodrigo: Please help me welcome at this time….” Top Tier” Cassie Lopez.

As Meliana steps aside a little bit to make room, she waits as Cassie Lopez steps into the frame, looking as classy as ever and commanding the attention. By her side is her entourage, her “Executive Intern” Jessica Anderson and the ever so imposing Cleopatra Ivy, who easily towers over everyone.

Cassie Lopez: Meliana! Sweetie! So good to…. not see you again. My God, why must I always be tested dealing with such lesser beings?

Cassie rolls her eyes while Jessica shakes her head in support of Cassie’s statement. Meanwhile, Cleopatra doesn’t say a word or make any gestures with her face. She just stoically stands there with her arms crossed.

Cassie Lopez: You better make this worth my time. So come on, Meliana! Got any barn burners for me? Huh?

Meliana clears her throat for she’s trying to keep herself together in front of the company that she’s with currently. All while keeping her professionalism intact.

Meliana Rodrigo: Cassie, tonight, you will be facing Ayu Megumi one-on-one. You two have faced each other before, with you getting the victory, of course…

As she mentions the brief recap of the previous match, Cassie gives a smile while giving a flirtatious whip of her hair to the side.

Meliana Rodrigo: …Anyway, is your strategy going to be any different this time around against her tonight?

Cassie realizes that her time was wasted. However, she doesn’t make an issue of it. After taking in a few seconds, she brings her attention towards Meliana.

Cassie Lopez: You’re hopeless. Let me ask YOU a much better question, sweetie. What is the name of the arena that Ayu and I faced each other last January?

Meliana takes a moment to ponder the question that was given to her, much to the chagrin of Cassie who didn’t want to be kept waiting.

Meliana Rodrigo: Uh, The Footprint Center in Phoenix, Arizona.

Cassie Lopez: Congratulations, Captain Obvious! The Footprint Center! Emphasis on the word “Footprint”. If you take a look real close at Ayu, you can see the divine footprint I left on her after I crushed her in our first match. And now they have the audacity to put me in there against her again because she’s probably whining about wanting to get some kind of payback.

It is at this time that Cassie addresses the camera.

Cassie Lopez: Ayu! You’re not even a part of the equation anymore. As far as I’m concerned, you are way in my rear view. But here we are. Maybe this information is too slow to reach you. Lucky for you, I have absolutely no problem delivering the message to you again. I WILL become the next Zion Wrestling World Champion. And if I have to kick your ass again to drive that point home, Ayu, so be it! Tonight, you’re going to be doing a whole lot more than kissing my ring when I’m done with you..Yo….

In a fit of enthusiasm, Jessica steps in, making her point with conviction.

Jessica Anderson: …You’re going to be kissing El Jefe’s feet!

Cassie turns to Jessica, caught off guard a few seconds on the comment, but then acknowledges it by patting Jessica’s head, making Jessica feel rewarded.

Cassie Lopez: Well said.

After speaking to Jessica, she turns back to Meliana.

Cassie Lopez: Now THAT’S “Top Tier” Journalism! Now, you’re excused.

Cassie immediately puts her hand up in front of Meliana and then leaves the area with Jessica and Cleopatra following.

After exiting, Meliana looks a bit perplexed, not knowing what to think about what she just experienced. Within moments, she collects herself and looks at the camera in her usual professional demeanor.

Meliana Rodrigo: Back to you guys.

Within moments, the scene fades to black.



MATCH #5: AYU MEGUMI VS CASSIE LOPEZ

Alex Lawson: The winner of this match…Ayu! Megumi!

Eddie Red Apples: A huge win for Ayu Megumi tonight!

Amber Westgate: And some well earned vengeance on Cassie Lopez!

“Ponytail to Shushu” By AKB48 throughout the arena, Ayu just holds her head in pain after a match with Cassie Lopez, timekeeper just slides the microphone into the ring as Ayu asks for the microphone. As she slowly gets back to her feets and tries to stand on her wobbly legs after a hard fight with “Top Tier” Cassie Lopez. As Ayu holds the microphone up her theme song fades away.

Ayu Megumi: Konbanwa!!! I am very pleased to come here tonight. Everyone here is really great. I feel good coming back to Japan every time. especially traveling in different cities I miss everything about Japan. So that's why coming back to Japan is so precious to me. I missed wrestling in Okinawa, but that's okay, I went home to see my mom and dad. And tonight after a tough fight with Cassie I'm proud to say how delighted everyone here was to see my match. But I'm definitely not stopping here. Next month, Zion will be at the Tokyo Dome. Now I want my Tokyo Dome card, because I always said it was one of my dreams to wrestle at the Tokyo Dome because if it's close to achieving my dreams, then why wouldn't I strive for my dreams? Whoever listens in the background I want to say that I will be happy to fight with you guys at the Tokyo Dome. But it probably wasn't just for my dreams. But to prove that I am one of the three Megumi, I am good enough to call myself a member of this family. And I don't want to make them look down on my family... I want to win ther-...

Just then, “2nd Sucks” by A Day to Remember starts to play, with Jessi Ozborne making her way out from the entry tunnel and towards the ring. Ayu smiles, with a bit of confusion crossing her face all the same as she tries to figure out what’s going on. Eventually, Jessi enters the ring, before grabbing a microphone of her own. A small pause in motion between these two fills the arena with anticipation, until Jessi suddenly approaches Ayu and pulls her in for a hug. The two embrace in the center of the ring, before Jessi lifts up her microphone to speak.

Jessi Ozborne: You have no idea how special this moment is for me. Standing here, with you, in this place that happens to be special to both of us.

Jessi turns to the crowd.

Jessi Ozborne: Let me tell y’all a story about me and the woman I’m sharing the ring with. Months ago, the two of us were sitting in the NFW locker room. Had to be after the thousandth time we had beat each other up. We decided we were tired of it all. Decided to bury the hatchet right then and there. But that wasn’t the end of the conversation, it wasn’t even close. We started talking more and more, started going over our dreams and aspirations. We talked for hours, so much so that the fine folks at the Vlad Blackheart Memorial Coliseum had to kick us out for staying in too late after hours. The point is, when we were sitting in that locker room talking, there was one thing we said, one goal we had in common, that we could not shut up about.

Jessi turns to Ayu again.

Jessi Ozborne: Do you remember what that goal was, Ayu?

Ayu Megumi: Wrestle at Tokyo Dome!

Ayu gave Jessi a bright smile after she heard what Jessi said. Jessi nods.

Jessi Ozborne: We are just four weeks away from the biggest show that Zion Wrestling has to put it on. In the exact place that you and I have always dreamed of wrestling inside. You know…they keep saying that you and I are wrestling soulmates of sorts. That we’re destined to do this forever. Well Ayu, I wanna keep doing this with you…

Jessi points towards the Destiny II sign looming in the background.

Jessi Ozborne: ...At Destiny II!

Ayu was slightly shocked before her expression changed from a wide smile to a small smile on her face. She nodded slightly to Jessi.

Ayu Megumi: Okay since Tokyo Dome is what we both want. Why would I refuse that opportunity, right? I want to fight you again on the day when both of us are most ready looking back at that time we were both considered by everyone to not be top wrestlers. But now I think we're being watched, so Jessi let them know us as a top wrestler. Because I don't want to just live under my sisters shadow. I don’t want to live under their shadow anymore.

Jessi Ozborne: Then it looks like we have ourselves an agreement. Let’s tear the house down at the Tokyo Dome and show them why Jessi Ozborne and Ayu Megumi are two of the greatest of all time.

Jessi extends a hand out to Ayu. Ayu glanced at Jessi's hand before she looked up at Jessi's face before she looked at Jessi's hand again. Ayu thought for a moment before she shook Jessi's hand with a smile before Ayu. will pull Jessi into a hug.

Ayu Megumi(off-mic): See you at Tokyo Dome, Jessi.

Jessi Ozborne(off-mic): Wouldn’t miss it for the world.

The two continue to hug as “Ponytail to Shushu” By AKB48 begins to play again.

Eddie Red Apples: Well it looks as though the challenge has been set. Let’s see if the powers that be make this one official.

Amber Westgate: These two have so much history together, to see it all culminate inside the Tokyo Dome is gonna be epic, Eddie!

Jessi and Ayu speak to each other off mic, unable to be heard over the cheers of the crowd as we fade.

WINNER: AYU MEGUMI
RESULT: PINFALL (STARSTORM)



The hive gathered in the middle of a darkened room. The three women stand in the middle of the room in a triangle formation each holding their belt. Legion in the black cloak looks up first her red eyes piercing the sky as she looked at her girls.

"the Queenslayer" Legion: tonight we gathered to defend our world trios championships against the void. This must come to an end one way or another, Porter. The last few weeks back and forth this game has been played, and each of us have given our best. Tonight we take these belts and you three want to rip these from us and tonight the game is over.

Legion then lifts her title up as does Kass. She looks over at the other two looking behind them.

"the Queenslayer" Legion: Run!

Legion charges at the camera then she vanished into the dark.
