The pyro goes off as we go into a jam packed RCA Dome! The people are ready for a show!

Tripp Bennett: Sold out crowd here in Indianapolis, Indiana! All of them are ready to see the most exciting two hours of wrestling on the internet!! Welcome to Wednesday Night Fusion!! I'm Tripp Bennett, joined as always by my broadcast colleague Alivia Takasoto! 

Alivia Takasoto: Summer Bash is drawing closer and tonight we're finally gonna find out our main event! Two semi finals matches taking placce right here tonight! It's gonna be exciting Tripp!

Tripp Bennett: Let's also not forget that Angel Kash takes on RWK here tonight! If she wins, SHE can even be involved in the main event of Summer Bash! An exciting night indeed!

Match #1: Samantha Tolson vs. Legion (w/ Mister J) WHC Tournament Semi-Finals

Alex Lawson: The following match is scheduled for one fall and it is the semi-final in Zion’s World Heavyweight Championship Tournament

Introducing first...from Jefferson City, Missouri...weighing in at 158 lbs...Samantha! Tolson!

And her opponent...representing The Hive...being accompanied to the ring by Mister J...from Aokigahara, Japan...weighing in at 135 lbs...Legion!

Tripp Bennett: After a week to rest on their first round victories, Samantha Tolson and Legion are set to do battle this week. When that second bell rings, one of these two are guaranteed a match for the Zion World Heavyweight Championship!

Alivia Takasoto: Both these two scored empathic wins over their first round opponents, but only one of them can go to Summer Bash in a match for the World Heavyweight Championship!



The bell rings and the two competitors immediately get into a collar and elbow tie up in the center of the ring! Tolson gets the upper hand almost immediately, though, getting headlock on Legion, right into a takedown! Tolson squeezes the head, which only serves to infuriate Legion! She lifts her legs and wraps them around Tolson’s head, bringing her to the mat with a Headscissor. The ref checks the shoulders and they're both down! He counts the pin!

ONE…!

Tolson gets her shoulders up! She keeps a grasp of Legion’s legs, using her strength to get to her feet and place Legion in position for an Alabama Slam. She attempts to throw her to the mat, but Legion gets her legs around Tolson’s head quickly reversing it into a Hurricanrana! Tolson slams to the mat, but is back to her feet instantly with Legion. She runs to Legion and catches her with a Lariat, but Legion ends up catching the arm, managing to wrap Tolson in a Crucifix Pin!

ONE…!

T-

Tolson kicks out and rolls to her feet! Tolson attempts to catch Legion with a Thrust Kick as she returns to her feet, but she evades it! Legion returns to her feet now, attempting to sweep the leg of Tolson, but she leaps over it! She stomps on Legion’s back to keep her bay, before running the ropes and attempting a Basement Dropkick! Legion dodges the move, though, catching Tolson while she’s on her back with a Double Knee Moonsault! Legion pins again!

ONE…!

TW-

Tolson kicks out again! Legion is visibly frustrated now. She lifts Tolson to her feet, possibly looking for another move, but NO! Tolson swats her hands away before jumping up and hitting her with Dropkick that sends Legion stumbling into the corner! Tolson runs to her and hits a Knife Edge Chop in the corner! Legion is in pain, but looks more angry than anything else. Tolson backs away from the corner before making a “bring it on” gesture to Legion. Angered, Legion runs for a confident Tolson, only to be met with a Japanese Arm Drag! Legion doesn’t even have a chance to try to get up before Tolson’s back on her with a Standing Moonsault! Tolson covers!

ONE…!

TWO…!

Legion kicks out, but Sam’s back on the attack! She runs to the ropes and hits a Lionsault to Legion! She bounces to her feet and attempts to hit a Standing Shooting Star Press, but NO! Legion puts the knees, sending Tolson stumbling back in pain! Before she can try to get back into the match though, Legion slaps a Superkick to the face! Tolson goes down! Legion sees her chance and goes for the top rope and attempts to hit Knightfall, but this time Tolson gets the feet up, catching Legion in the face! She’s brought to a knee and Tolson capitalizes with MIND YOUR HEAD!!! Huge Knee Strike from Tolson! She wants to go for a pin, but just then Mister J mounts the apron.

The two get face to face just like most that have crossed Legion. But suddenly, Mister J slips from the apron! We pan over to see who’s responsible and it’s...RWK! RWK seems to be making the save! He lands a few punches to Mister J’s head to keep him at bay! Meanwhile, Legion starts to make it to her feet, but Sam’s on top of it, grabbing her and taking her to the corner! She gets her to the top rope, possibly looking for Victory Drop Omega! She gets on the second rope to get into position, but just then RWK slips a hand behind the right front of Tolson from ringside! She falls to the mat, hitting her head hard on the canvas! Tolson is stunned as RWK begins to make his exit!

Legion comes to on the top rope and sees her opportunity! She turns around and jumps from the top rope to hit KNIGHTFALL on Tolson! She goes for the pin!


ONE…!

TWO…!

THREE!



Alex Lawson: Here is your winner...Legion!

Tripp Bennett: Legion did it! Legion’s going to the finals!

Alivia Takasoto: But we can’t just sit here and not acknowledge that assist from RWK! What the hell was that about?

Tripp Bennett: I have no idea Alivia. But you have to believe that there’s gonna be hell to pay!

Legion celebrates on the shoulder of Mister J as RWK backs up the ramp. Sam doesn’t direct her gaze anywhere near the two Hive members, opting to have her eyes fixed on RWK as we go backstage.



Backstage, we see the upper portion of a bar, as two hands would hold it whilst Daria pulled herself up, working out as she addressed her opponent for the evening.

Daria Dorsey: "So, I've seen that Addison Rayne hasn't been relevant to the conversation since 2019, as it was her last known tweet on social media...

She said, dipping down and pulling herself back up to the camera as she spoke.

Daria Dorsey: So, she thinks that Zion is her saving grace, and she can build herself off of me? That's not happening.

Daria said, dipping down again, this time doing a pair of pull-ups in preparation for her fight.

Daria Dorsey: This world isn't Sunshine and rainbows, Addy. This is real life, with winners and losers. And honey, I'm a winner.

She said, before doing another pull up to psyche herself up.

Daria Dorsey: I am peak physical conditioning, Addison. You've had your time in the sun, and now it's my turn. There isn't a field, court, pool or ring you can beat me in. I am the Zenith of Zion Wrestling, and you might think of yourself as a great wrestler, but, I'm about to give you a crash course in sports education...

Daria said, before letting go and finishing her promotional video there to get on with her day and prep for the fight.

Match #2: Danae (w/ Kass) vs. Jensen Kidd-Belmont (w/ Sara Cross)

Alex Lawson: The following match is scheduled for one fall!

Jensen makes it out on the stage with Sara Cross! The two start to hype each other up for the match ahead before proceeding to go down the ramp!

Introducing first….being accompanied to the ring by Sara Cross...from Miracle World...weighing in at 120 lbs...Jensen! Kidd---

Just then The Wolves of Legion arrive, attacking the two from behind!

Tripp Bennett: The Wolves don’t seem to wanna wait for their match this Saturday to get physical! Here they are attacking their opponents now!

Alivia Takasoto: Oh Tripp, this is definitely not gonna end well for one of these teams!

The Wolves beat down Cross and Kidd-Belmont on the stage! Kass Big Boots Cross away, before both of The Wolves target Jensen. The two start to land savage shits across the body of Kidd-Belmont before Kass helps Danae to lift her into a powerbomb position! The two walk Jensen to the edge of the stage, threatening to throw her off! But Cross intervenes, Superkicking Kass away as Danae casts Jensen to the side.

Cross and Danae start to brawl on the stage one on one. Cross hits a Superkick to Danae’s shin, causing her to drop to a knee. She runs at Danae, looking for another move, but Kass comes back into the fray, hitting Cross with a Lariat. The Wolves begin to double team Cross, but just then we notice Jensen out of the corner of the screen. She’s up in the air, scaling the mini-tron of the stage set, before diving off with a Crossbody to all three women!

Jensen helps Cross back to her feet before they notice Danae starting to stir. They begin to take a stance at each side of their prone adversary, before running at her with dueling Superkicks when she reaches a knee! The Wolves of Legion are both down now!

Tripp Bennett: The Wolves of Legion may have struck first, but it’s Sara Cross and Jensen Kidd-Belmont who come out top tonight!

Alivia Takasoto: It seems as though the match we have scheduled tonight won’t be happening, but looking at the state of Danae, I’d say that’s for the best!

Tripp Bennett: Well, luckily for us, we’ll get a definitive winner to this feud this Saturday at Summer Bash! With moves like that, you have to imagine these two are definitely heavy favorites!

Match #3: The Wiz (w/ Mike Zamboni) vs. Sterling Jamison White

Alex Lawson: The following match is scheduled for one fall!

Introducing first...from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania...weighing in at 168 lbs...Sterling! Jamison! White!

And his opponent...from San Francisco, California...weighing in at 250 lbs...The! Wiz!

Tripp Bennett: Look at the size of the man coming to ring right now!

Alivia Takasoto: Yeah...SJW oughta just run now!



Sterling would enter down the ring, insulting the Wiz's podcast for his entrance, which The Wiz takes offense to that and rushed him from the start to knock him down with a clothesline. Wiz was quick to cancel this SJW as he sets up for a bucklebomb, and quickly finished him off with Risky Wizness, as he covered.

ONE...!

TWO...!

THREE!



Alex Lawson: Here is your winner...The! Wiz!

Tripp Bennett: Well...that was fast!

Alivia Takasoto: Note to the wise, don't talk trash about the man's podcast!

Wiz celebrates as we go to commercial

Match #4: Angel Kash vs. RWK
Alex Lawson: The following match is scheduled for one fall!

Introducing first...from The Hamptons, New York, weighing in at 128 lbs...Angel! Kash!

And her opponent...from Los Angeles, California...weighing in at 23y lbs...Robert William Kendricks...R! W! K!!

Tripp Bennett: Well later tonight we’re gonna find out who Legion will be facing for the Zion World Heavyweight Championship at Summer Bash, but there’s a possibility that this match could change everything!

Alivia Takasoto: Angel Kash took to social media this weekend to vent her frustrations about being put against a debuting Carson Cain last week. After that, Kai Morgan made this match and said that if she can win tonight, she’ll go to the finals with Legion and whoever wins our semi-final tonight!

Tripp Bennett: Yeah, but the only thing is she can’t rely on her old seedy tactics to do it! Steele Matthews is even banned from ringside! She has to beat RWK clean as a whistle if she hopes to contend for The World Heavyweight Championship this weekend!



The bell rings and, desperate, Kash immediately goes for a Running Knee Lift to RWK! He sidesteps it though, sending Kash rib-first into the turnbuckle! He wraps around Kash and goes for a German Suplex, but Kash lands on her fett from it! RWK is back to his knees and turns around, straight into knee from Angel Kash! She goes for the cover!

ONE…!

T-

RWK kicks out, but Kash is already back on the offensive! She pulls RWK’s hair until he’s back to a vertical base! She throws him in the corner turnbuckle and mushes his face with her boot! The ref reprimands this and starts his 5 count! Kash lays off before running to the opposite corner and then straight at RWK, landing a Big Boot across his jaw! He falls to the mat and Angel covers again!

ONE…!

TW-

Kick out again from RWK! Kash starts to get frustrated, but she’s still focused! She starts to land a series of stiff punches to the head of RWK! She begins to stand and starts dropping knees to the side of RWK’s torso! She goes for the pin once more!

ONE…!

Kick out for a third time by RWK! Kash begins to become even more frustrated now. By reflex, she goes to ringside and grabs her bottle of Benevolence! She goes back into the ring, ready to spray RWK with her perfume. The ref intercepts her on the way in though, demanding that he put the bottle down! Kash refuses, and an argument ensues in the ring, giving RWK enough time to recover. He runs in and attempts a Superkick on Kash, but she sees this and yanks the ref in her way! The ref takes the full force of RWK’s boot to the back of his skull!

RWK looks down in awe at what he’s done, but when he brings his focus back to Kash, she sends a huge misty spray of Benevolence into his face! RWK is reeling now as Kash puts the bottle down. He calls her shot and hits The Kash Flow to a recovering RWK! She goes for the pin, but something is amiss! The ref is knocked out, he can’t count the pin! Kash breaks the pin to try and revive the fallen referee. She shakes him violently while shouting obscenities at him!

Eventually, she gives up and returns her attention to RWK. She lifts him up again by his hair, but this sets RWK off! He swats away Kash’s hands and lands a Superkick to Kash’s face! She stumbles, before he hits an Enzuigiri that sends her down to one knee! He kicks her in the chest to get her into position, before running the ropes and hitting King’s Testament! The ref is conscious again, just as RWK covers!

ONE…!

TWO…!

THRE-

Kash kicks out! Kash kicks out of King's Testament! RWK sits beside a laid out Kash, shocked but impressed at her being able to stay in it. He returns to his feet and starts to mount the top rope! He gets to the top and starts to hype up what’s coming next. He goes for the LA Press, but NO! Angel Kash catches it into The Liquidation! She has it locked in tight! RWK struggles, but eventually makes it to his feet with Angel in tow. He hits a Sitout Powerbomb to Kash before rolling under the bottom rope! He slowly mounts the ropes again, before going for The LA Press again! This time he gets it! RWK goes for the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

THREE!


Alex Lawson: Here is your winner...R! W! K!!

Tripp Bennett: RWK gets an exciting win tonight!

Alivia Takasoto: Angel Kash can’t be happy after this. Her chances of becoming World Heavyweight Champion just went up in smoke!

Tripp Bennett: In all fairness, Morgan did say she had to win without cheating to make it. Even if she got the 1-2-3 here tonight, that spray of Benevolence alone would’ve cost her a shot at the gold!

Alivia Takasoto: Well if we know Angel Kash the way we do, then we know she’ll certainly find a way to sneak herself back onto the horse!

RWK celebrates in the ring before rolling under the bottom rope and exiting the ring. He looks up the ramp when he suddenly sees Sam Tolson standing on the stage. The two stare each other down.

Meanwhile, Kash returns to her feet, absolutely furious. The crowd lead an assortment of provoking chants at her and she spirals into a tantrum in the ring as we fade out.



*******PRE-RECORDED*******

We go to a very large Santa Fe style outdoor area, pool with a freaking waterfall coming down from a little hill, a lounge area with large white chaise lounges, which is where Juliana Mendoza sits in a very skimpy purple bikini, a margarita in her hand and a smile on her face.

Juliana Mendoza: Hello Zion Wrestling. Last week you were all gifted with the debut of THE Beautification Movement, and for that, you’re welcome. This week though, you only get to bask in my beautiful body, through the screen. Myself, TAURUS and out other associates have other business to attend to, but we now Kai Morgan is desperate for the ratings bump we provide, so we are here to remind you all to watch Summer Bash and see the Zion in ring debut of THE Beautification Muscle...

TAURUS suddenly comes popping up out of the water, leaping and landing on his feet just a bit behind Juliana, flexing as he stands there in a fairly small and revealing black speedo.

TAURUS: ME!

That’s the only word the big man needs to say as Juliana lays back smirking as he shows off his impressive physique before the fade out.

Match #5: Addison Rayne vs. Daria Dorsey
Alex Lawson: The following match is scheduled for one fall!

Introducing first from Fort Pigeon, Tennessee...weighing in at 119 lbs...Addison! Rayne!

And her opponent...from Rochester, New York...weighing in at 152 lbs...Daria! Dorsey!

Tripp Bennett: Both these competitors are about to square off here ahead of a big ladder match this Saturday at Summer Bash!

Alivia Takasoto: These two are considered heavy favorites to win the match this Saturday and become the inaugural YouTube Champion, but a win here should give these two some much needed momentum!



The two begin to circle each other in the center of the ring. They look like they’re about to come to graps, but Dorsey is uncharacteristically the one to extend a handshake to Rayne. She gives Rayne a friendly stare, until she returns the handshake, but it was a trap! Dorsey pulls Rayne in and hits her with a knee to the gut! Rayne falls to her knees on the mat before Dorsey delivers a Thrust Kick to her jaw! Rayne is down and Dorsey covers, cockily cupping her head in her hands and smiling!

ONE…!

TW-

Rayne kicks out and Dorsey looks down at her annoyed. She lifts Rayne to her feet by the hair and lets her go in time for the refs 5 count. She runs the ropes, jumping off the second one to catch Rayne with a Springboard Uppercut, but no! Rayne dodges the attack, leaving Dorsey to slam to the mat! She takes advantage, running the ropes and hitting a dropkick to a seated Dorsey, laying her out on the mat! Seeing her down, Rayne springs to her feet and hits a Standing Shooting Star Press to Dorsey before she covers!

ONE…!

TW-

Kick out by Dorsey, but Rayne’s prepared! She pops up and attempts a moonsault on the still downed Dorsey! But Dorsey gets the feet up, sending them into the face of Rayne! She staggers back as Dorsey makes it to her feet and runs the ropes. She attempts a Chop Block, but Rayne does a cartwheel to avoid it! Dorsey makes it to a knee before Rayne hits her with a Dropkick to the back of the head!

Dorsey’s in a daze but she’s not down yet. Rayne attempts to pull her to the mat for the pin, but the moment Dorsey’s back hits the mat, she raises her legs and traps Rayne in a Headscissor! Rayne struggles to get out of the hold, eventually moving around on the mat and using her foot to bounce off the bottom rope! The two rotate on the mat, with Rayne getting a hold of Dorsey’s leg and twisting it into an Ankle Lock! Dorsey’s in trouble now, but she’s able to mount a comeback. She rises to her other foot, before using it to push off of Rayne and roll out of the hold! She runs for the ropes now, bouncing off and finally hitting a Springboard Uppercut! Dorsey goes for the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

Kick out from Rayne! Dorsey lifts her to her feet, looking as though she’s ready to end this. She runs the ropes once more and attempts the Firespin DDT, but no! Rayne reverses it into a Back Body Drop! Dorsey gets up and turns around right into THE RAYNE STORM!! Dorsey falls back into the ropes and bounces off. Her energy is down to ounces at this point, but she musters up enough to hit a waiting Rayne with a Discus Clothesline before falling to the mat! Both competitors are down, with Dorsey just barely moving! She crawls over to a prone Rayne and lays one hand on her, going for the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

Rayne gets a shoulder up! Both of them are down again. Rayne’s the first to make it to her feet, going straight for the ropes. She climbs to the top, Dorsey’s still down! She leaps into the air for the Rayne Drop, but Dorsey rolls out of the way! Rayne slams the mat hard, coming up to her knees to reel in pain. Dorsey’s back up now, gauging her opponent before running the ropes, hitting Rayne with the FIRESPIN DDT!! Dorsey covers!

ONE…!

TWO…!

THREE!



Alex Lawson: Here is your winner...Daria! Dorsey!

Alivia Takasoto: And another winner by my favorite here tonight! Mark my words, Tripp: Daria Dorsey is going to be your first YouTube Champion!

Tripp Bennett: With three days until the biggest show of the summer, Daria Dorsey is riding in with a full head of steam! Will she be the one to climb the ladder and become YouTube Champion? Find out Saturday!

Dorsey celebrates in the ring as we go to the next match

Match #6: Eddie Williams (w/ Owie Sharp) vs. Jobber Joe

Alex Lawson: The following match is scheduled for one fall!

Introducing first...from Jobberton Industries...weighing in at 175 lbs...Jobber! Joe!

And his opponent...being accompanied to the ring by “The King of Sportopia” Owie Sharp...from Toronto, Canada...weighing in at 220 lbs…”Flawless”! Eddie! Williams!

Tripp Bennett: One of the people set to take part in the ladder match to decide the first ever YouTube Champion is competing here tonight!

Alivia Takasoto: Two weeks ago, Eddie Williams suffered a loss to Addison Rayne, but he’s looking to turn around his momentum for Summer Bash with an easy win tonight! And with someone like Jobber Joe, a win’s as easy as they come!



Eddie Williams would start the match up, baiting Jobber Joe into a handshake, and then forcing him into a side headlock. He then slammed him face-first into the canvas, before following up with an elbow drop to the back of his spine, and quickly followed up with a single leg Boston crab to put extra pressure on Joe, as he scrambled to the ropes. Joe almost makes it to the ropes, as Eddie would spike his knee into the canvas, which caused the crowds to boo loudly. Williams would pull Joe up by the hair and burn his eyes with the top rope and then propels him to the opposite end to rebound into a Solid Gold Spinebuster, transitioning into Flawless Lock which Joe would make him submit quickly.



Alex Lawson: Here is your winner…”Flawless”! Eddie! Williams!

Tripp Bennett: A quick and dominant win by Eddie Williams to push him forward into this Saturday!

Alivia Takasoto: Tripp, I would dare to say that win was absolutely FLAWLESS!

Eddie Williams and Owie Sharp celebrate together in the ring before Sharp leads Williams out through the second rope! They back up the ramp as they catch a glimpse of the camera. They turn to it, making belt gestures around their waist and saying that Eddie’s gonna be a Flawless YouTube Champion before we fade to commercial!

Main Event: Solomon Graham vs. Pandora Navarro/Winner vs. Carson Cain (WHC Tournament Semi-Finals)

Alex Lawson: The following match is scheduled for one fall and is the first round in Zion’s World Heavyweight Championship Tournament!

Introducing first...from Scarborough, Ontario, Canada...weighing in at 223 lbs…”The Paragon of Professional Wrestling”...Solomon! Graham!

And his opponent...from Phoenix, Arizona...weighing in at 125 lbs...Pandora! Navarro!

Tripp Bennett: Two weeks ago, Solomon Graham beat Pandora Navarro to gain entry into this tournament. But due to some...unforeseen circumstances...she finds herself with another opportunity tonight!

Alivia Takasoto: Just tell it like it is Tripp! Solomon Graham took an extra spot that he didn’t deserve in this tournament! He knowingly entered as Skeleskreem, yet still decided to swoop in and take his spot from Pandora Navarro!



The bell rings and Pandora Navarro immediately goes for Graham with a Bicycle Kick, obviously a receipt from two weeks ago! She scoops Graham up and lifts him to the center of the ring before hitting him with a Michinoku Driver! She rolls back to get to her feet before going for a double stomp to Graham’s head, but he rolls out of the way! Seeing this, Navarro tries to catch up with him, but Graham grabs the leg, tripping her and sending her face first into the mat! He floats over the prone body of Navarro, before flipping her over and applying a Dragon Sleeper! She immediately gets into a panic, trying to find any way out! Graham goes to the mat to get the move applied in earnest. But before he can get his legs wrapped around, Navarro takes advantage, shifting the weight back and flipping over for a pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

Graham gets out of the pin, relieving his grip! Navarro rolls to the side, but Graham is right back on the offensive, getting her in a headlock from behind! Navarro again rushes to get out of his devastating grasp, quickly rising to her feet and grabbing Graham’s head before driving him down with a Stunner! He stumbles back as Navarro holds her neck to recover. She turns around to see Graham with his back turn and she attempts to maneuver her away across him to hit a Hurricanrana! But Graham catches her midway, instead hitting a Sidewalk Slam! Graham goes for the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

Navarro kicks out! Graham puts his hands over his face in disappointment while sitting beside a reeling Navarro, thinking out his next move! He picks her up off the mat before hooking the arms and attempting the Regal Cutter, but Navarro manages to get herself free! She turns around and pushes Graham to the ropes! He comes back prepared, going for a Lariat! It looks like he got all of it, but Navarro catches the arm! She brings her legs up and wraps them around the head of Solomon Graham, all before she drives him down with a CANADIAN DESTROYER!! Graham’s head smacks off the mat and he bounces back to his feet, staggering. Navarro takes advantage, hoisting him on her shoulders and hitting her signature DEATH VALLEY DRIVER!! She goes for the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

THRE-

Graham kicks out and Navarro is in shock! She just came within mere milliseconds of progressing to the semi-finals! Enraged, Navarro lifts Graham to his feet by his hair. She gets Graham in position for The Navarro Drop, but just as she gets the leg up to apply the finishing blow, Graham slips her grip!! He turns around, catching her other leg and lifting her up in the air! He balances himself before bringing her down with a Sit Out Powerbomb! Graham traps her for a pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

THRE-

Navarro kicks out now, but Graham is prepared! He uses the momentum of Navarro’s kick out to flip her onto her stomach, getting her in position for THE TRIFORCE CHOKE!! GRAHAM HAS IT LOCKED IN!! Graham’s holding on for dear life now! Navarro looks around, but they’re in the center of the ring! She has nowhere to go! She attempts to use her free arm to club Graham over the head, but he dodges! She’s too weak to attempt to lift Graham from the mat, and it’s at that point she realizes she has no other option! Navarro taps out and ref rings the bell!



Alex Lawson: Here is your winner...Solomon! Graham!

Tripp Bennett: Solomon Graham is progressing to the semi-final!

Alivia Takasoto: But at what cost? Carson Cain is ready and waiting behind that curtain! And with all the damage sustained to his head, Graham’s like a fish in a barrel!

Pandora Navarro rolls in agony on the mat as Graham scoots away from her before leaning on the ropes. He favors his head, but he’s still gesturing towards the stage, egging Carson Cain to come out and get the match started! The ref, however, is still trying to get Navarro out the ring.

Alex Lawson: Therefore, the following match is scheduled for one fall and is the---

Just then the lights go out.

We hear rumblings emanating from the center of the ring!

Alivia Takasoto: What the hell is going on?

Tripp Bennett: I have no idea!

Just then the lights come back up, and Pandora Navarro is...gone. In her place is a black, velvet masquerade mask. Both Graham and the ref look on in shock. But before they can fully process what just happened, Carson Cain’s music plays.

Alex Lawson: His opponent...from Los Angeles, California...weighing in at 214 lbs…”The Catastrophist”...Carson! Cain!

Cain makes his way down to the ring with a slight swagger in his step. He makes it all the way down the ramp before a fan hops the guard rail and jumps him! The fan beats down Cain before taking an unmarked glass bottle and bashing it over his head, breaking it! The fan takes off their bulky hoodie to reveal that it’s...Angel Kash! She picks up Cain and throws him under the bottom rope into the ring!

Cain is down on the mat as Kash hops on the apron! She starts to scream at the downed Cain and demands for Graham to get up and pin him! Graham makes it to his feet. It looks as though he’s gonna go for a cover, but instead he hits Kash with a Big Boot to send her to the ground at ringside! He turns to Cain, helping him to his feet before shaking his hand. The two want to do this fairly and so they both go to different corners to start the match!



The two lock up in the center of the ring, but Graham gets the upper hand, twisting the arm of Cain! He gives the arm another twist, sending Cain to the mat! But he refuses to stay down, instead kipping up and hopping into a Wheelbarrow position to get Graham into a Victory Roll pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

Graham kicks out, but eager to get another shot in, Cain leaps into the air and hits Graham with a double stomp to his chest! He fumbles to the ground before looking at the downed Graham, then up to the top rope. He returns to his feet and begins to slowly scale the ropes. He gets to the top rope before turning around and going for a Moonsault, but Graham moves out of the way! Cain clutches his chest as he returns to a kneeling position. But before the pain can completely register, Graham levels Cain with a knee to the back of the head! Graham covers!

ONE…!

TWO…!

Cain kicks out! Graham gets up with a certain determination. He’s ready to end this by any means necessary! He grabs Cain and sets him up for Shattered Neck Brilliance, but Cain refuses to let his legs go up! He plants them firmly to the mat, conjuring up the strength to lift Graham over his head for a Back Body Drop! He sees Graham down behind and calls his shot! He runs for the ropes and attempts to hit Calamity to Graham, but he gets caught in a wheelbarrow position! Seeing an opportunity to sneak a win again, Cain counters into another Victory Roll!

ONE…!

TWO…!

Another kick out by Graham, and again Cain wastes no time, attempting the same Double Stomp! But Graham dodges it this time and Cain catches nothing but canvas, tweaking his knee in the process. Still grounded, Graham sees an opening and trips Cain up, making him fall face first to the mat before locking in an Ankle Lock to the injured leg! Cain is reeling in pain, but he’s not giving up! With a final burst of energy, Cain flips forward, causing Graham to be thrusted towards the ropes! He bounces off chest first before being met with a kneeling Carson Cain as his back is turned!

Cain has him on shoulders, but he’s in a kneeling position, on one good knee! How is he gonna manage to do this? He struggles for a bit, but Cain eventually makes it to a vertical base with Graham on his shoulders! On shaky legs he works to get Graham evenly in position, possibly looking for Total Cataclysm! He throws Graham from his shoulders! This could be it.

But Graham lands on his feet! He landed on his feet to escape! Carson Cain is in shock! Before he can respond though, Graham kicks out the injured knee! Cain is sent to a kneeling position now and Graham capitalizes! He gets Cain in position, before hitting SHATTERED NECK BRILLIANCE!! CAIN IS DOWN!! GRAHAM COVERS!!

ONE…!

TWO…!

THREE!



Alex Lawson: Here is your winner...Solomon! Graham!

Tripp Bennett: Solomon Graham has done it! Solomon Graham has done the impossible!

Alivia Takasoto: Solomon Graham just outlasted two of the best that Zion Wrestling had to offer and now he’s going to Summer Bash to fight for the World Heavyweight Championship!

Tripp Bennett: You heard it here first, ladies and gentlemen! We are in for a blockbuster main event this Saturday!

Solomon Graham celebrates weakly in the ring before being met by an equally weak Carson Cain. They meet in the center of the ring before ultimately shaking hands, the two having loads of respect for one another! Cain leaves Graham in the ring alone, but just then Legion’s music hits! She comes down to the ring accompanied by Mister J and the two stand off with Graham!

Alivia Takasoto: Speaking of that blockbuster main event here it is now!

Tripp Bennett: You’re not gonna wanna miss Summer Bash folks! Legion! Solomon Graham! This Saturday, one of them will walk away as the first ever Zion World Heavyweight Champion!

The two continue to stare with one another as we fade to black!
