The first chorus of “Throne” by Bring Me the Horizon ends as we fade into a sold out Namihaya Dome! A huge set of pyro goes off to start us off for Mayhem tonight as we cut to Winter Mae and Trick Morrison at the announce desk!
Winter Mae: As March turns to April, we’re just three more shows away from reaching the biggest event of the year! Welcome…to Monday Night Mayhem! I’m Winter Mae, joined as always by Trick Morrison!
Trick Morrison: We are in for a huge show tonight! In the main event, we find out who’s going to represent Zion Wrestling in a showcase match against one of the folks from House of Wrestling! Plus, we start tonight with another chapter in Kasey Kash’s reign of dominance as Undisputed Champion!
The Namihaya Dome of Kadoma, Osaka, Japan, has been sold out with loyal fans to Zion Wrestling, highlighting the promotion's worldwide influences on professional wrestling. The audience dominates the stadium venue, and atmosphere, especially for tonight's episode of Monday Night Mayhem, where the opening contest features the Undisputed Championship to be defended by Kasey Kash tonight in his series of open challenges. His opponent is backstage in the locker room getting changed into her gear, and the camera showcases her activity on the live broadcast.
Serenity Holmes stands up from the bench and puts on her black studded leather jacket along with her signature black studded hat turned backward. She turns around to face the camera with a smile, getting quite a positive reaction from an unfamiliar audience. This is the first time she's ever stepped foot in the promotion against the Undisputed Champion, Kasey Kash. Serenity's confidence and determination can easily be seen written on her face for the opportunity of a lifetime.
Serenity Holmes: It's been a long time coming, but we all know I'm never one to back down from an open challenge. Zion Wrestling's been a promotion I've had my eye on for a while, but I only knew how to instantly impact such a great company once Kasey Kash came up with the perfect answer. So on my debut tonight, I can walk into Zion Wrestling on my first day as the new Zion Wrestling Undisputed Champion!
There's an audible response of praise and support from the Japanese audience. Serenity takes a moment to gather her breath and composure from almost being too excited.
Serenity Holmes: Even with those dreams, I must finish it tonight. I'm in a position far better than nearly half of the roster who have been fighting to be in my current spot. The champion issued an open challenge to anyone in professional wrestling, which means either the competition in Zion Wrestling isn't enough, or he's just a coward believing he would get it easy. Instead, he made one mistake and realized I was waiting around the corner, and now tonight, in Japan, he lost the Undisputed Championship in front of the entire world!
Serenity fluffed strands of hair over her shoulders and placed her hands on her hips.
Serenity Holmes: Kasey Kash! I know you're listening to this, and I know you believe you're untouchable. You play the self-righteous asshole very well, but in the span of your last two matches, you've been pushed to the limit, and when the pressure turns up, you fold and resort to desperate measures. All you've proven is you're an undisputed coward using everything at your disposal to hold onto that Championship, but tonight, your shortcuts end. I will beat you in a manner so embarrassing that you'll be on the spiral trend down to hell. The 22nd Century Girl is finally here in Zion Wrestling, and I've come for blood!
She pushed the camera away from her and left the locker room on the way to the opening contest.

RESULT: PINFALL (NOT HERE TO FUCK SPIDERS)
We open inside the Namihaya Dome, many hours prior to Mayhem. There's no telling exactly what time it is, but the ring is just barely being set up down in the center of the Dome. We zoom in near the top of the stands, where Link Andrews is sitting.
Link Andrews: How's it goin, Zion? Saturday's Second Son here, ready for tonight's battle royal!
He takes his eyes away from the camera for a second, sighing at the look of the ring down below. In just a few short hours, he'd be in the main event where he hoped to win. The biggest match of his career to date.
Link Andrews: I know that some people are looking at me like I'm crazy, right? I know some people are looking at me like I've got no chance in hell when it comes to winning tonight's battle royal. Nine other people are going to be in that ring, nine other people trying their damndest to make it to the end. Those same people that look at me and all they do is doubt, they know that I haven't had the greatest run here in Zion thus far. They know that when it came time to go up against my greatest rival to date here in Zion, I couldn't get the job done. So where does that leave me now? Sitting here in front of you, knowing that I may have made some mistakes since coming here and I may have dropped the ball but I'm also telling you I've learned from those mistakes. I know what I want, and I want to be the last one standing at the end of this thing. I want to be the one that has his hand raised, and I want to be the one to represent Zion against House of Wrestling!
Link stood up, balling his right hand into a fist and hitting it onto his chest.
Link Andrews: I know there's plenty of others in this battle royal tonight that would be upstanding representatives. There's many that have accomplished much more than I have here, plus I haven't been here for very long. I could see how some look down on me for believing I could be the one or Zion Wrestling. That I could be the one to give our company a win. You know, maybe I haven't been here very long, but Zion and XIX gave me a chance when nobody else would. I love and care for my sister, but she broke into the business long before I did. Because of that, some companies looked at me and wondered how I would be an older sibling with no name of my own. Zion Wrestling gave me the chance I needed to not just be Alex Andrews' older brother, but to be LINK Andrews. I know who I am, and I can be the best damn representative for this place. I can do us proud!
He nodded his head up and down, taking a short pause to gather his thoughts.
Link Andrews: Of course, the biggest reason that I may be the BEST pick to go up against HoW, is that I know the enemy. Enemy may be a strong word, but I know that place. My sister has held a contract there since their very first show, and may I add she's done a damn good job continuing her legacy that she's already built. I know what their roster can do, and even if I have to go up against my sister, I'm ready to do so. Nobody is going to stop me from reaching my DESTINY.
With the name drop of the Supershow that he hoped to be wrestling on, Link dropped the microphone. He took a step back, outstretching his arms and allowing the camera to take him all in. You could see the pure fire in his eyes. He wanted this badly, because he knew he needed this. If not, who knew if he'd be able to secure himself a match at Destiny II. This could be his only shot, and you could feel that through the camera.
It was now or never. We fade.
MATCH #2: MAKI MEGUMI VS JAY BRONI
Megumi makes quick work of Jay Broni, as do all people put up against jobbers! She rushes him off the bell, immediately taking him to the mat with a Bicycle Kick! She pulls him up, wailing on him with strikes across the back before pushing him into the corner! She keeps the onslaught going, nailing Broni with stomps in the corner until the referee instructs her to pull him out! She does, before unloading on Jay Broni with Welcome to Darkness (Spinning Backfist)! He;s laid out on the mat, leaving an opening for Megumi to swoop in and put him in Last Scream (The Lockjaw)! Broni taps out vigorously, with Megumi still not letting go until he passes out!
Vivian Blake: The winner of this match…Maki! Megumi!
WINNER: MAKI MEGUMI
RESULT: SUBMISSION (LAST SCREAM)
We see IKEDA standing in front of the camera, pulling off a nice suit jacket and tossing it aside. He starts rolling his sleeves down as he begins to speak.
IKEDA: I bet you think you're a real big shot, don't you, Zara? Calling your shot, relinquishing the Gateway Championship to get a shot at Reo and his National Championship? You think that's the way to go? You think you stand a chance against Reo?
He scoffs and shakes his head.
IKEDA: Please. Trust me when I tell you this. This is a death sentence. Standing up to ONI is a sure fire way to shorten the length of your career. And you know what? I don't really care if I win here or not. It's not about that. It's about making sure you don't enter Destiny at 100 percent. It's about being an obstacle on your path to Reo. To put you through as much pain and agony as possible.When there is something I look forward to. Why do you ask? Because that is an endeavor I'm quite good at. I like hurting sniveling brats who don't know their place. I like dragging it out and imposing my will upon others. So look forward to a work of pain Zara, because that's what you're in for.
He clicks his tongue and lets out an audible sigh before he begins undoing his button down shirt. IKEDA turns around and walks off before we fade to black.
ZARA IVORY VS IKEDA
IKEDA approaches Ivory in an attempt to grapple! But given everything he’s done to her in recent weeks, the Chaotic Nightmare is past that, instead clubbing IKEDA in the jaw with an Uppercut! IKEDA staggers back and through the ropes out of the ring! Ivory gives chase, climbing right out of the ring after him! He takes advantage of this, tripping Ivory once she’s on the outside and sending her face first into the steel steps! He follows up, bashing her head against the ring apron before rolling her back into the ring! Ivory tries to get up, only for IKEDA to swoop in and nail her with a Big Boot! He pins for the two count!
IKEDA pulls Ivory to her feet, pushing her back against the ropes and going for an Irish Whip! He hunches over as he waits for her return, only for Ivory to vault over his back and go for a Sunset Flip Powerbomb! IKEDA is able to maintain his balance, grabbing Ivory by the head and pulling her to her feet! Ivory immediately counters with a Forearm to the side of the head, before hitting the ropes and nailing him with Team of Misfits (Spear)! Pin by Ivory, with IKEDA kicking out right before three!
Ivory takes to the top rope, looking for Violence Causes Silence! But IKEDA gets the knees up, driving them into her sternum! He gets Ivory to her feet, taking her down with Hero’s Pride (Cobra Clutch Suplex)! Pin by IKEDA, with Ivory beating the three count! IKEDA sets up in the corner, looking for Mind’s Eye! But Ivory is able to get out of the way as he goes for it, catching him from behind with In A Daze (Tiger Suplex)! Ivory takes to the top rope again, nailing IKEDA with Violence Causes Silence (Frog Splash)! Pin by Ivory, securing the victory!
Vivian Blake: The winner of this match…Zara! Ivory!
Winter Mae: The #1 Contender for the National Championship, scoring a huge victory tonight!
Trick Morrison: Can’t imagine Reo Ojima would be pleased with something like that!
Ivory has her hand raised by the official, only to be clocked from behind by Reo Ojima, who comes to the ring with Hana Kaneko and batter Ivory to avenge their fallen stablemate! Eventually IKEDA joins in, and it becomes a 3-on-1 assault! This doesn’t last long however, with Kaya and Lilith Parker rushing down to the ring to even the odds! ONI flees at the sight of the Tag Team Champions, with the sisters both helping their fellow up to her feet as we fade!
WINNER: ZARA IVORY
RESULT: PINFALL (VIOLENCE CAUSES SILENCE)
“STARS” Original by Stardom was begin to play and immediately received with cheers from fans inside the Namihaya Dome, Nami Megumi walked out with a mic in her hand. With her hair longer than anyone's used to every time they've seen her, Nami waves to the fans with a cute smile as she slowly heads into the ring. On the way, she shook hands with her fans. Some hugged her fans, especially the ringside kids, before Nami stepped into the ring and walked to the center of the ring, raising her mic to speak as the fans cheered her on. With a sound that erupted throughout the Namihaya Dome.
Nami gave a slight bow to the fans before she raised her head with another smile.
Nami Megumi: Konbanwa! Thank you for your feedback, Namihaya Dome! I don't have a match tonight but I think I have something to say tonight so don't get bored of me! Before I talk about serious matters, I'll take this opportunity to thank everyone who has been supporting me since the day I recovered until today when I was able to wrestle normally. As you all know, in Destiny II at Tokyo Dome, my opponent is my sister. I want everyone here to witness that night. The night I get my revenge on Maki, the night I make Maki know that I can become stronger without being under Maki's shadow and control and that Maki will regret betraying me. Because I will never! There's no going back there again. I already know where I am and everyone here will see my worth. I've made the wrong choice once. I used to turn my back on all the fans here. I think that will make me successful. But I realized that, I didn't succeed because of Maki Megumi, but I succeeded because of myself. I was able to succeed because of the encouragement from everyone here. So I regret what happened. I regret being The Evil Bird. I know I've done a lot of bad things during that time. I know it's irreversible But I will make a new history for myself. I came out here tonight to summon Maki Megumi Come out here Maki I know you're listening. I know you have a match tonight but I want to call you out here right now! I want to speak to you tonight about our upcoming match in the Tokyo Dome. If you're not cowardly, I ask you to come out. But I know I'm going to be disappointed because I already know how cowardly you are!
Nami turned to look at the titantron. She lowered the mic and waited for Maki Megumi to come out. But after a while, Nami felt that Maki wouldn't come out to the ring. She shook her head slightly before walking back. in the middle of the ring to speak again.
“Monster” By Aldious (アルディアス) begin to play throughout the Namihaya Dome but was met with boos from the fans. But Maki slowly walked out of the backstage with a wicked smile and a silly expression on her face. She looked at Nami. With a wicked glint before Maki spat to the ground on his way before Maki slowly headed towards the ring with a mic in her hand, Maki stepped onto the ring before slowly walking around. of Nami and immediately raised her mic to speak.
Maki Megumi: Talk too much, Nami. I don't know why you're disturbing my time tonight. But before you open your stupid mouth and tell me I'm a coward. Now that I've come out to show you, why are you looking at your sister like that, Nami? Oh, looks like my little bird can't still move on from her match with Kasey Kash! What are you going to do? Blame me or not? You can blame me for seeing it as the second time you failed to become world champion. Oh, isn't it a coincidence that it's because of me once again that you're not a world champion? Look at your pathetic Nami, you always blame others but you never blame yourself. Do you really think you can set a good example for Ayu?
When Nami hears Ayu's name, she immediately becomes angry. Nami's expression changes to the one that is clearly angry. Nami walks closer to Maki before Nami picks up the microphone to speak in front of Maki. Maki looked at Nami's face with an evil smile and couldn't predict what Maki was thinking of doing next.
Nami Megumi: You should have kept Ayu's name in your mouth. I never said that I would set a good example for Ayu. I never told Ayu to look at me as an example. So if you don't know anything, you're just silent. What about you, Maki? What you do, do you think you will make Ayu proud of you? Even me, I've never been so proud of you You're such a bad sister Maki Nothing can change the fact that you're a coward Maki Everything you do is a coward you show. Coming out here doesn't mean you're not a coward so don't be arrogant, Maki, you said I only blamed you for losing to Kasey Kash or even Angel Kash last year. I do it because it's true. I can beat them if I'm not disturbed by you. Look before you bother me at how close I am to becoming a world champion. And I know why you did it, Maki, you did it because you envied me for not being on the same level as me. I've had more success here than you, and don't forget Maki, you won the Zion Wrestling Tag Team Champion because of me didn’t because of me turn Meguism into one of the best tag teams here? Look at the stats I put on Meguism while you were the one who made us lose the Maki champion. And everyone here already knows what the answer is. Maki, before you insult me, you should win the championship on your own. You think you carried me when we were Meguism, but in fact, I've always carried your pathetic career. And I don't think my one mistake is the same as the one you failed before we became champions. How many times do we have to lose because of you? I endured it because I believed in you. But now I realize it was my mistake.
Maki yawned slightly as she was listening to Nami's words. Maki continued to look at Nami with her own sister's defiant eyes. Maki smiled slightly after hearing what Nami had said before. Maki moves the mic up to speak again.
Maki Megumi: Nami Nami Nami I don't want to hurt you. But isn't it because of you that you see your own strength? Isn't it because of me that made you become the Zion Wrestling Tag Team Champion, and isn't it because of you that we can't become Zion Wrestling Tag Team Champion again? It's because you're weak. And I don't see how much you can improve yourself. It's not worth my risk with you anymore, Nami, you don't think you're better than me. Everyone here saw how weak you were. You were hurt just because I hurt you. But this time I'm going to do something worse than you think. Maybe in Destiny II I'll just end your career right here, you hear Nami, I'll just end your pathetic career right here. I won't torture you any longer. I hope you learn that every mistake you make is your own… You can't blame me, you know? You're weak and you deserve to be betrayed by me. I'm going to tell you that you're worthless to me, Nami. make you see the other side of yourself I bring out your evil side, that's what you're thanking me for. At least I didn't have two innocent but brainless sisters. Now I don't care what you say anymore, Nami, but here in Destiny II, I'm going to destroy you. Since I can create your offensive identity, I'll be the one to destroy that identity. by myself So I'll make you realize once again how miserable you are. You claim that you are more successful here than me but so what? Do you think I care? No, Nami, I'm your older sister and of course I know you better than anyone. And I know what your weak point is, so you're in my hands. And I will crush you until you beg me to stop.
Nami looks at Maki angrily before Maki slowly approaches her but Nami loses patience she punches Maki in the face until Maki falls to the mat Nami straddles Maki's body before punching Maki. Nami not holding back, but then Maki pushes Nami away from her, Maki gets up quickly as Nami runs towards her, but Maki counters with her own version of Blind or Green Mist! Maki sprays Green Mist into Nami's face causing Nami to grab her face before Maki kicks Nami's leg, causing Nami to kneel before Maki takes Nami over with Nami's own finisher Tsunami! Nails Nami down to the mat!
