As we're in the backstage area, Daria is seen speaking about her upcoming match against Austin, as she was prepared for her upcoming match against her.
Daria Dorsey
"Tonight, I'm taking on Austin St. Croix of the Datadames. What's happened to you lately is just business, but your loud obnoxious friend decided to make this personal… Tonight is going to be a lesson for you, to prove why you both aren't meant to be champions!"
During Daria's tangent, the screen would start to flicker as it was hacked by Austin, who didn't want to hear her speak.
Austin St. Croix
"No, Daria. You stabbed me in the back, just because of your own ego. You hated the fact that Sayge and I had finally got the titles while you've been on the downfall ever since Zack Porter beat you. We supported you, and you repayed us by siding with the biggest scumbag on the roster, just because you couldn't handle not having any spotlight on you for once!"
Austin said, feeling betrayed by her, and clearly upset about the whole incident.
Austin St. Croix
"I thought we were friends, Daria… whatever Angelica had done to you shouldn't have made you act like this. Then, you have the nerve to say I'm not worthy of being a champion? Fine, I'm going to kick some sense back into you."
She stated, before the screen would return back to a commercial break, before their bout was set to take place.
OPENING CONTEST: DARIA DORSEY VS AUSTIN ST. CROIX
Darrion Hughes: The following contest…is scheduled for one fall!!
Crowd: ONE FALL!!
Darrion Hughes: Introducing first…representing The DataDames…from Coney Island, New York…weighing in at 133 lbs…Austin! St. Croix!
And her opponent…from Rochester, New York…weighing in at 152 lbs…she is one-half of the Zion Wrestling Undisputed Tag Team Champions…Daria! Dorsey!
Amber Westgate: I’ll tell ya, an Undisputed Tag Team Championship rematch may be on the cards for next week, but I’m kind of afraid of how likely we are to get there after tonight!
Adam LaRue: I understand your concern, Amber! Truth of the matter is there is not a single group of people who want Daria Dorsey’s head on a silver platter than The DataDames right now! And if Austin St. Croix attempts to get it, this might be the shortest episode of Fusion we’ve ever had!
Daria and Austin would circle the ring, as they grappled one another, as Daria's size advantage would come into play, as she grounds Austin with a belly to belly suplex. She worked a quick side headlock in, though, Austin was able to get her legs in to transfer into a headscissor on Daria to counter the hold and forced a break.
Both get to their feet, as Daria tries to close the gap, but meets a thrust kick by St. Croix. She sets up a big kick to the head, and hopped up, baiting Daria to duck, as she swooped in for a legsweep to take her down with those educated feet of her's. Capitalizing while she was down, Austin would strike her with the heel of an axe kick, and a pin attempt.
ONE…!
TWO…!
Daria kicked out, as Austin would go to work her arm with an attempt at a bicep slicer, though a pair of elbows to Austin's face thwarted that. Austin would go for another thrust kick, however, Daria catches it, to trip her up for a single leg Boston crab to work her leg and minimize her offense. She kept Austin in the hold briefly, though, she got to the ropes to force a break.
Daria would get some distance, as she goes for her bicycle knee combo, but Austin does a quick cartwheel to sidestep it, and then connects with a hip toss to send her up and over. She looks to set up the Wonder Wheel on Daria, but she's backed into the ropes and shoved away. With running speed, Daria attempts the Firespin DDT, but is caught on Austin's shoulders and she countered into an Ushigaroshi, as Daria's head lands on her knee while she is crumpled and down near the ropes.
Austin would buckle briefly, as Daria landed on the knee she had been working on, as she was getting to her feet. Meanwhile, outside of the ring, we see Angelica sneak in from underneath and hands Daria the ring she used to win the titles, as Daria puts it on to bait Austin. When she goes to pick her up for the Wonder Wheel, Daria sucker punches her with the ring, and quickly capitalizes on her dazed state and goes for the Firebird Driver and hooks the leg.
ONE…!
TWO…!
THREE!!
Darrion Hughes: The winner of this match…Daria! Dorsey!
Amber Westgate: Dorsey with the cheap win tonight, but can she and Angelica Matthews get the job done with the titles on the line next week?
Adam LaRue: Things like this don’t tend to slow people like Austin St. Croix down! They just make her angrier! Let’s see what that anger manifests next week!
Dorsey stands tall as we fade!

RESULT: PINFALL (PHOENIX DRIVER)
[Devyn Mitchell smiles widely as she's standing alongside Nadia Allen, who's currently rolling her neck around in circles. She is wearing a small smirk on her face when she eyes Devyn.]
Devyn: Welcome back to Fusion. I'm excited to be with Nadia Allen. My friend, I missed you last week!
[Devyn beams. Nadia gives a warm smile.]
Nadia: I missed you too. But my hands were full.
[Nadia's tone was matter of fact.]
Devyn: That is true. We saw you and Hana Kaneko throwing down backstage. I remember peeking through around the corner and it was crazy.
[This is when Nadia faces the camera.]
Nadia: There's a price to pray messing with me. Maybe since you know that I'm coming for all of you in G.O.D. Hana, that you wanted to get a leg up and take me out for your "God." Well you won't be the first matyr to ever die believing in a false God. I'll make sure you're the next.
[Devyn's mouths opens as Nadia glares.]
Devyn: Strong words! Very strong words. But to be expected. Now, to pivot? Can I pivot?
[Nadia nods.]
Nadia: of course.
Devyn: OK great! I know you're raging war against the Genesis of Destruction. Buuuut tonight you're going to have to put that on hold because you have a date with Ayu Megumi. A first time ever match. You two have never shared the ring with one another. Should be fun.
Nadia: Can't wait. Ayu, I know you're the only person Jessi [Ozborne] hasn't been able to beat. I also know my friend Alexis Quinne has been waiting to wrestle for you for a long time. Those two things alone tell the story. And I've seen you wrestle at home and in person. You're resilient. You're athletic. You wrestle with so much joy and energy that is clear how much you love doing this.
[Nadia mulls her words.]
Nadia: I know there's a lot of wrestlers that put out a list of wrestlers they would like to wrestle. I also have a list of names that I want to see staring across the ring from me. It's ten names and it's only for me. but Ayu, you are on that list. Beating you, putting you to the ground, squeezing all that energy out of you gets me one step closer to proving that I am the best. And I know you will bring your best, just like you do wherever you wrestle. Your best has beaten some of the greats. Now I want to prove that my best is better than yours.
[Nadia twists her head to Devyn, who has her smile still plastered on her face.]
Devyn: Nadia, as always it's been a pleasure.
[Nadia gives another nod to Devyn.]
Nadia: You're the best.
[Devyn grins widely as Nadia waves before turning her back and walking away.]
MATCH #2: VLADISLAV VS CORNELIA HOLESON
VLADISLAV watched as Cornelia eyed him as she began attempting to circle him like a dog would do a piece of meat. When she came at him, trying to throw a punch, he dodged the hit with ease before hitting her with a powerful snap German suplex. It took him almost no time to get back to his feet, looking down at his opponent with disdain. He got her back to her feet, throwing her into the corner with a viciousness that she obviously wasn’t quite expecting. VLADISLAV followed after Cornelia, nailing her with a running corner splash that sent her sliding down the ropes until she was sitting on the mat, dazed from the splash. As he leaned down to grab her ankles, she began shaking her head and grabbed onto the ropes. It didn’t last long as he roughly jerked on her legs, essentially pulling her from the corner and causing her to slam down on the mat.
As VLADISLAV went to grab her again, Cornelia moved to kick him, but he was able to catch her foot. He shook his head in her direction before locking her in a sharpshooter, causing her to yell out in pain. She began crawling towards the bottom rope, but just when she’d get close, he’d pull her back away from it. After a minute or two of the little cat and mouse type game that had been going on, he released the submission, looking down at her with a smirk. Ready to end the match and be done with the foolishness of his opponent, he made his way over to her again leaning over once he reached her. Lifting her up, VLADISLAV nailed her with a beautiful Red Scare, slamming her down roughly. As she screamed ”Ow! My hole!”, he shook his head and went for the pin. The referee, having been briefly taken back by Cornelia’s outburst, slid down for the pin attempt.
ONE…!
TWO…!
THREE!!!
Darrion Hughes: The winner of this match…VLADISLAV!!
Amber Westgate: VLADISLAV making the most of his return to Zion Wrestling here tonight!
Adam LaRue: You can expect a new age of dominance out of this man, Amber! He’s absolutely one to look out for!
VLADISLAV stands stoically over his opponent as we fade!
RESULT: PINFALL (RED SCARE)
The camera feed had buzzed on to show Hana Kaneko and Eden Sterling getting ready for their tag team match, with the time of year Hana had gotten Jigsaw-themed gear, fixing her knee pads that both had the red spiral designs on them.
𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐀: “Don't you love this time of the year, Eden? It's my personal favorite. Although I live this kind of life every day of the year, nothing changes for me. I could really dress in my other work clothes and people will think it's a costume.”
Hana had laughed a little bit, her eyes searching around the room but not for too long. She wouldn't say the two of them were super close, but wasn't against being in a team with the other. She reached over to pat her on the shoulder.
𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐀: “You know, I don't blame you for being so quiet. I mean, at least whenever I'm around you never really…jump out to say anything. I understand. I was always like this when I was growing up. I've had to swear to secrecy a few times to plenty of different things. Out of everyone in Genesis of Destruction, I feel like you're the one that I can look at and maybe think that we might not be too different in the end.”
Hana paused, her hand going back to rest on her own knee before her eyes went back to Eden.
𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐀: “What do you think? About everything. Let's talk. Whether it's about Genesis or Destruction, our match tonight, what your favorite scary movie is, doesn't matter to me. Just let your thoughts translate to words.”
Eden simply smiles at Hana and nods at her, adjusting her Freddy Krueger-themed gear for a second before she speaks.
EDEN: "I think you might be right on a few of those points. Like, I'm not overly expressive. I would never call myself outspoken. So, sorry if I come off as distant and standoffish, I just don't believe in speaking if I have nothing to say. You know how that old saying goes "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt."
Eden shrugs her shoulders a bit at that.
EDEN: "And I can agree with you about this being my favorite time of year as well. Just something about the spooky season resonates with me. I haven't exactly ever been one to disappear in a crowd, just being as tall and slim as I am made that unlikely."
Eden shakes her head as her thoughts on that fade, a small smile on her face.
EDEN: "As for how I feel about us and our match tonight? I think this is a perfect opportunity for the both of us to show up and prove others wrong. I'm sure people have said/wondered why the pair of us decided to join up with Isis' cause and that we are just mindless drones. But that couldn't be the farthest thing from the truth. I have my own personal reasons for doing this and I'm sure you do as well. And we are going against one of the top champions of the brand and the leader of the QoC? Yeah, now is the time to prove we are our own people and very capable on our own merits. Sure, we aren't above a little gang warfare, but we are also quite dangerous on our own, don't you think?"
Hana simply nodded along with everything that Eden was saying, while she was already thinking about what she could say in response. She laughed a little when Eden was finished.
𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐀: “Yeah…Gianna Rojas. I'm looking forward to that on a personal standpoint, I guess. It would be nice to be able to prove that I'm not out of the conversation to be a two-time Viral Champion. I would like to see you in those kinds of conversations too, my friend. But Jessi Ozborne is a nice opponent as well. I feel as if QoC tries to act like the heros and the good guys but they are far from that. I see what they really have in their hearts, and it's even darker than midnight. But, we will expose that in the Tag Team match tonight. We'll put them away so that we can assist with showing that Genesis of Destruction is a greater entity than QoC.”
Hana looked down for a moment, sighing softly as she moved a hand through her hair to fix it.
𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐀: “I'm with you on that, though. I'm not with this group just to be a mindless lapdog. I will admit to you, since it's just us here…i'm still very skeptical about this whole…god complex. I don't know, I just don't see it. ISIS is obviously great and everything, but…—. Eh. I don't know, a lot like you I just keep that in my head instead of letting that get in the air. You've seen it personally, I don't like Maki at all. She's just become a mindless walker that doesn't even have her own sense of mind anymore. She just sits and lays on ISIS’ lap. It's awkward to watch sometimes, how she's just so…braindead. Some days I do regret not decapitating her with that locker over there. I don't think I was wrong for that. She went too personal with her words and there's only a few things I won't tolerate being said to me. I won't be convinced that I was in the wrong with all of that.”
𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐀: “But…yeah, I'm sure we will do wonders in the match tonight. Both for us and for the entirety of Genesis of Destruction. Who knows, maybe this won't be the last time we team up together. But we'll have to wait and see about that. I think your style meshes with mine pretty well and we could easily combine some of our moves to surprise Jessi and Gianna. What the future holds is a mystery, but let's make it a Nightmare for them.”

RESULT: PINFALL (DEATH-PLEX)
We head backstage, to the interview stage, where...it has to be said, a bored looking Kaitlin Williams, standing beside a somewhat tentative looking Vinny James. The reigning National Champion is already dressed for action, with her title strapped around her waist unlike other appearances she’s made, and yet? She just...doesn’t look particularly enthusiastic up to this point--something Vinny clearly notices, as he doesn’t waste any time in getting started, so he can get Kaitlin right up out of there.
Vinny James: “Ladies and gentlemen, my guest at this time is the reigning Zion Wrestling National Champion, and she defends that title later tonight against...seemingly, a hand-picked challenger, after last week’s contenders match, in Crystal Caldwell--please welcome, Kaitlin Williams!”
Kate...doesn’t react, even to the accusation; she just smirks a little as a moment of amusement flashes in her eyes.
Vinny James: “And, Kaitlin, I think we have to start back during the battle royal last week; you were on commentary for most of the match, but with Nao Saegusa and Crystal Caldwell on the verge of elimination, you chose to interject yourself into the match and eliminate Nao Saegusa. There’s been a lot of speculation over the last week as to why, so...let’s cut to the chase, what led to that decision?”
Kaitlin Williams: “You want to know the truth, Vinny?”
Kaitlin smiles a little, reaching up to pat Vinny’s cheek a couple times.
Kaitlin Williams: “Because I can. That’s really what it boils down to--I do what I do because I can, because I want to, and because frankly? There’s not a goddamn person that can stop me--but I’ll give you something a little more interesting for this one in particular. Why Nao? Why did I feel the need to go after Nao, specifically? To be totally honest with you, Vinny, it’s because I feel bad for the girl.”
Vinny looks...uncertain about that response, and he’s probably right to, as Kaitlin continues her thought with minimal pause.
Kaitlin Williams: “You were doing that interview with her, a few weeks ago, where she laid out all her trials and tribulations, everyone else that’s done all these terrible things to her...dealing with everything from wannabe monsters to kidnappers to people that wanna play movie star instead of wrestler, and she just sounded...tired, didn’t she? She just sounded like the whole thing was stressing her out--so I did her a favour, back at Invasion, and I kept the burden of being National Champion off her shoulders. I did her a favour, by taking away one of those stresses from her life--but Zion, mate, they can’t leave well enough alone, can they? They had to put her in another match, to get another chance, to try to take on even more problems, even more stress, than she’s already under...”
Kaitlin’s earlier smirk twists into a pitiful frown, as she pushes the hair out of her face.
Kaitlin Williams: “And that just...didn’t feel right to me, so I did her another favour.”
Vinny...doesn’t look convinced. At all. And yet? He seems to understand what Kaitlin’s about, and rather than press her for a more real answer, he just...moves on to the next question.
Vinny James: “Well...tonight, you make that defense you seemed to have set up last week, against Crystal Caldwell, and...”
Kaitlin Williams: “And if there was anyone that should be standing in front of me, right now, bowing and groveling and doing everything in her power to thank me for last week, it’s Crystal fucking Caldwell--I’m curious how many people were even on the roster, the last time she won a match that meant anything here. Best part of an entire calendar year, either sitting at home swinging her feet, or choking opportunity after opportunity away, so when I hand her one on a silver platter, I expect to be thanked for my fucking generosity, Vinny. I expect a little fucking gratitude to come my way, for doing her an even bigger favour than I did for Nao, but instead...heh, oh god, instead? She...actually thinks this is going to be a good match, she actually thinks I gave her an opportunity, Vinny--isn’t that just adorable, that she thinks that’s what this week is?”
Kaitlin shakes her head negatively.
Kaitlin Williams: “I need you to understand something, Crystal--I walked into this place and took this title because I felt like it; I’ve stepped up and told people what I’m going to do to them, and they can’t stop me from doing it; a lot of people say they’re the best at something, but night in and night out, I prove it--I am a level above everybody I’ve stepped in the ring with, and I haven’t slowed down for a second; I have been at the top of this company, at the top of this game, since the moment I walked in the door, and the best you’ve got for me, after I handed you a chance to matter in this company, no matter how fleeting it’s going to be...
Kaitlin Williams: “...is It’S gOnNa Be A tOuGh MaTcH? If that’s the best you can muster up, you might as well not even make the walk down the ramp later on; I might break you in half just for the disrespect.”
Kaitlin scoffs a little bit and shakes her head, pushing the hair out of her face again as her somewhat amused expression fades into that much more familiar arrogant sneer. She clicks her tongue just once, staring off past the camera for a moment.
Kaitlin Williams: “You’re here because I allowed you to be, Crystal--and you’re only here to serve as another message, another warning, another statement...to this entire goddamn show. You’re only here because I decided to do a little more charity work ahead of the holiday season--you get a moment in the spotlight with a champion in this company, but it’s not going to be a ToUgH mAtCh, it’s going to be me driving your head into the mat until your fucking hair dye stains it, permanently. I’m going to give you a chance to matter in Zion, Crystal...and then I’m going to remind everybody on this roster what happens when you step to the Crown...”
Vinny doesn’t even flinch as Kaitlin snatches the mic out of his hand, and steps closer to the camera, to the point that it almost seems to shrink down, looking up at the National Champion as she finishes her line, before turning to leave the scene.
Kaitlin Williams: “You BOW.”
Kaitlin tosses the mic over her shoulder as she leaves; Vinny manages to catch it, but looks...no small bit annoyed at Kaitlin’s antics, as we cut back to ringside.
MATCH #4: JESSI OZBORNE & GIANNA ROJAS VS EDEN STERLING & HANA KANEKO
The two starting the match were Jessi and Eden. Ozborne got control of the match by going after the legs of Eden to compensate for any size difference. She had capitalized on that advantage being temporarily neutralized by tagging in Gianna where the two of them were able to lift up Sterling to connect with a double Suplex. A quick cover, only getting a one count as she transitioned that right into a headlock to keep the taller competition down on the mat. Another tag from there to keep the flow of their team doing, Jessi climbed to the second rope to come down with a double knee drop as Eden was defenseless for the moment. Jessi was in control until she tried to go for one of her signature moves, Bangarang, letting Eden duck under that to connect with a German Suplex. Sterling crawled to the corner where she was able to tag in Hana who ran in without any hesitation, hitting a clothesline on Jessi then ran over to the corner to take out Gianna with a dropkick. She ran back to the body of Osborne who was in a kneeling position, running and sliding to connect with a sliding flatliner, going into a cover which got an early two count. Getting Jessi back to her feet she was able to push off Hana which caused the two of them to get into a striking exchange with the two of them going back and forth with forearms. Hana connected with a big Rolling Elbow, sending the other back into the ropes who threw her entire body at Ozborne with a Rolling Koppo Kick leaving both competitors down on the mat!
Genesis of Destruction remained with the upper hand as Kaneko tagged Eden back into the match and picked up Hana with a bodyslam, but slammed her down on top of the body of Jessi. With her rolling back out of the ring Eden picked up Ozborne and threw her into the corner hard enough to cause her to bounce off and land face first on the mat. Sterling lined up the body of her opponent where she ran towards her to be able to connect with a Dropkick! Eden got back to her feet where she was able to pick up Osborne once again, throwing her into the ropes and went for a clothesline but Jessi slipped under, moving back to her corner where Gianna secretly tagged back in without the knowledge of Sterling. She ran back to Jessi who moved out of the way, running right into a Roundhouse Kick from the apron. Ozborne then grabbed the arm of Eden, throwing her into the corner so that Rojas would be able to get into the ring. Ozborne rushed to the corner, spinning in mid air then connected with a kick, Bangarang in the corner! She Irish Whipped the body of Sterling into the arms of Gianna who was waiting with a Shotgun Knee Strike! She goes into the cover!
ONE...!
TWO...!
Kaneko dove into the ring to break that up, causing Ozborne to throw her out of the ring and chase after her. The two of them brawled on the outside while the action was still going on in the ring, Rojas laying in repeated stomps to the chest of Eden. She picked up the taller competitor trying to lift her for a bodyslam but Sterling used her size to prevent herself from being picked up by slamming her elbow down into the side of the head of Rojas. She threw her into the ropes, connecting with a shoulder tackle to slam her down into the mat. On the outside, Kaneko was able to fight off Jessi long enough to get back on the apron so that she could be tagged in. GoD nodded to each other, Sterling picking up Hana in the position of a Back Suplex but instead threw her feet first into Gianna! After landing on the mat, Sterling threw Kaneko up in the air to hit a Senton onto Rojas. She went for a cover, only getting a two count before Ozborne was recovered enough to jump in to make the save! The two teams brawled, with Hana and Gianna exchanging strikes and Jessi and Eden going back and forth.
With Hana and Rojas being the legal people in the match, they met in the center of the ring by exchanging chops with each other, Gianna getting the upper hand by backing Hana up to the ropes before running to the opposite side to come back with a Kitchen Sink knee to the midsection of her opponent. Gianna with a snapmare immediately following, rushing back to the ropes where she came back with a Shotgun Knee Strike! She went for a cover, Hana able to grab the ropes due to their positioning in the ring. Gianna dragged her body to the center of the ring and went over to tag Jessi back into the match who immediately ran over to slam a boot into the face of Sterling to take her off the apron. She lined up Kaneko who was in the ring, trying for another Bangarang where Hana was able to duck, then landed a 360° Tornado Kick of her own! Jessi stumbled against the ropes but ran back to Kaneko where she came back with a High Knee, followed by a Roaring Elbow! The opponent stumbled back and fell into a seated position in the corner with Ozborne running full speed, connecting with a Human Hand Grenade! She doesn't waste any time to call for the end, when suddenly a figure ran into the ring and dropped Jessi Ozborne with a massive Bicycle Kick! It's ISIS! The match is immediately thrown away due to the interference.
Amber Westgate: We had to have known this would’ve happened!
Adam LaRue: These two can’t keep from making things physical for even a moment!
ISIS yelled to the rest of Genesis of Destruction to get back in the ring where the attack began, the three of them laying down strikes on Jessi and Gianna. With the two of them down on the mat and the trio standing tall, Hana and Eden went over to grab Ozborne and drag her back to her feet and brought her over to ISIS to finish the job like they had planned. The beat down was then interrupted by Nadia Allen! Nadia rushes to the ring, ISIS immediately darting out of the ring which leaves the other members of GoD to deal with Allen. This didn't last long as Nadia was able to fight the two others off, causing both Kaneko and Sterling to retreat before they could be damaged further. The GoD trio looks on from the outside as Nadia, Jessi, and Gianna stand tall in the ring.
RESULT: DISQUALIFICATION
Friday Night meant a few things. It was the end of the work week for some, for others it was work in the form of Friday Night Fusion, but for Shazzah Nasty it was always date night. Accompanied or alone the woman didn’t miss an opportunity to indulge herself.
There was a small table sitting in a lowly lit room, with a soft cream colored table cloth across it, a polished sterling silver candelabra, and a single plate with its accompanying silverware. Sat in the only chair at the table Shazzah Nasty was there, dressed to impress but not perform. As almost always her long legs are made even more so by the pair of heels at the end, sparkling red ones tonight that compliment her off the shoulder ‘little black dress’ worn to tonight’s date.
Fork and knife in hand, Shazz presses the blade down into the several ounces of medium rare cooked meat on her plate causing the blood and juice to flow from the cut. A small portion of that Wagyu steak is cut off and placed between her red lips, the meat in her mouth enough to make Shazz moan in pleasure. She chews, swallows, and picks the napkin up from her lap to softly blot at her chin before finally looking at the camera that has been filming her.
Shazz Nasty: I love a good piece of meat. Now I’m a lady, obviously, so I know about diets and rice cakes and all of that good for you granola garbage, but like a lady I also know that at the end of the day there’s nothing quite like sinking your teeth into a cut of tender, dripping flesh. And there are different cuts of course, we have flank steaks and tenderloin, briskets and rib eyes.
Some people like to go to their local hole in the wall and order the same go-to every evening, and for them that’s fine. But for me, Miss Nasty? I want to taste it all. Even if it’s not for me, or not on my plate.
She smiles and takes another bite before pushing the plate back a few inches and turning her body more towards the eye of the camera.
Shazz Nasty: Now I would have hoped that the other ladies in the locker room would have caught on after what I had to go and do to Erika Crawford but some of you broads are just as thick headed as the boys around here, which is a sad, sad state of affairs. So let me state it as clearly as I can girls, if I want your man I’m going after him.
If I want your title I’m going after it. Whatever I want, I’m going after. At least if it’s just your boo I can guarantee I’ll grow bored in a few days and send him back home to show you a few new tricks. After all, I promise I’m not the type who wants to be screaming “Oh Bart! Yes Bart!” in a marital bed.
Shazzah snickered and lifted a hand from her lap to pick up the glass of champagne she had here to accompany her meal. A slow and savored sip was taken from it, and when she set it back down the softest print of her lipstick was left at the edge.
Shazz Nasty: We all know my name now. We all know just how Nasty I can be, but I would also like to proffer up this food for thought for you. This is the meal you get to share tonight with me at Date Night.
Do you know just how nice I can be? Not in the classical sense of helping old ladies cross the street, but for the right partner I can say please and thank you and do so much more. For the right date I’d even open doors, doors to places you all couldn’t even begin to fathom. I can treat you so, so good. Who wouldn’t want that?
The drink glass was still on the table, but her hand had never let it be after setting it down. The whole time she spoke her fingers lightly caressed the stem of it. Soft and suggestively she stroked and rubbed the stem before cupping the goblet portion of it in her palm. Her hand rolled the glass side to side, and the liquid inside swirled for an extended moment.
Shazz Nasty: Now why don’t you all work on swallowing that? And if you can keep it down you might even just get dessert. Ciao, Nasties!
The platinum blonde woman threw her head back with a deep and throaty chuckle, and then repeated the action but this time finished off her drink of choice with the head toss. Another pleased grunt came from the taste as she rubbed her hands down the curves of her body, returning to enjoying this date night whilst the camera finally faded out.
MATCH #5: MORGANA SUMMERS VS MELODY SLAYTON
In the opening moments of the match, it was Slayton who struck first, landing a quick European Uppercut that staggered Summers. She follows up with a snapmare, taking control of the early exchanges. But Summers, known for her resilience, counters with a textbook vertical suplex, slamming Slayton down to the canvas.
The match continues with a series of fast-paced exchanges. Slayton's scoop slam demonstrates her strength, while Summers counters with a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker that leaves her opponent writhing in pain. Summers was clearly adept at both technical and high-flying moves, as evidenced by her handstand Frankensteiner and diving clothesline.
Slayton's brawling style wasn't to be underestimated, though. She lands a punishing suicide dive that sends Summers crashing into the ringside barrier. With a distinct mix of styles on display, the crowd was treated to a back-and-forth contest that had them on the edge of their seats.
As the match progressed, both wrestlers displayed their athleticism and technical prowess. Summers executes a picture-perfect butterfly backbreaker, while Slayton responds with a well-placed jawbreaker. The tension in the arena continues to build, with each near fall prompting gasps from the audience.
The climax of the match was nothing short of thrilling. Slayton manages to hit the Sonic Rainboom (Poisonrana), on Summers. The crowd erupts as the referee's hand comes inches from the canvas for a three-count. Summers, displaying remarkable resilience, kicks out just in the nick of time.
Seizing the moment, Summers roars back into the match. She traps Slayton in position, before taking her down with the Hex-Plex (Regal Suplex), bridging for the pin. The referee slaps the mat for the final count and Summers emerges victorious.
Darrion Hughes: The winner of this match…Morgana! Summers!
Amber Westgate: A hard-fought battle, but in the end, darkness reigns supreme! What a contest!
Adam LaRue: Melody Slayton came extremely close to getting the win there! I’m somewhat surprised that she didn’t! Either way, both competitors showed why they were two of the best here tonight!
Summers stands tall over Slayton as we fade!
RESULT: PINFALL (HEXPLEX)
We cut backstage to find the manager and mouthpiece for Samuel Lopez, Dr. Castiel Talbot making his way down the corridor. The tap of his walking cane echoing through the empty hallway with every step that he takes before he finally stops at his destination, that being the locker room belonging to World Champion, Jordan Majors. Just as he’s about to knock on the door, it opens as the woman herself almost bumps into the good doctor, but manages to stop herself before doing so.
Dr. Castiel Talbot: Good evening, Miss Majors. I am glad I was able to catch you as I wish to have a moment of your time if I may?
Jordan looks past the doctor and down the hall both ways as if expecting someone else to be there.
Jordan Majors: What do you want? What is this?
Dr. Castiel Talbot: He’s not here. You can trust me. I simply just wish to talk to you. However, if you do not want to talk… or if you are busy with something else, I will not pry and I shall leave at once.
Jordan stares at the doctor for a few seconds before she slowly steps out of his way and holds the door open. She motions for him to come inside and looks toward the floor.
Dr. Castiel Talbot: Thank you, my dear.
Talbot then enters the room as Majors takes one final look up and down the hallway before then closing the door behind her as the camera shifts to the inside of the locker room where the doctor has since taken a seat.
Dr. Castiel Talbot: I understand your trepidation, Miss Majors. After all… I am the Uncle, manager and mouthpiece of the very man who is currently haunting you.
He pushes his glasses from the bridge of his nose up over his eyes with his index finger.
Dr. Castiel Talbot: But rest assured… I do not always agree with his methods. You see, Miss Majors… my dear Samuel is a very troubled individual. He has spent most of his life locked away within the confines of a padded room… and as a result… his social skills are not quite… there. Now, by no means am I asking you to be sympathetic towards him. After all… with everything he has done to you so far… I would find it very difficult myself to offer him sympathy if I were in your shoes.
She puts her hand up as if to stop him from speaking as if she’s heard enough. She stays standing and looks down at him.
Jordan Majors: No, no, no… you don’t get to come in here and play all innocent about this. You see, I’ve spent the last week trying to figure out why the hell this man is terrorizing me specifically. I just sent him and his new wife a wedding gift and a note in apology for not making it to their wedding. And then he honeymoons by pretending to beat my girlfriend half to death or… whatever that was!?
Jordan shakes her head once more and waves her hands.
Jordan Majors: What did you honestly expect to get out of this? There’s no sympathy from me. If he wants to be another challenger for this title, he can step up to me and get his ass dropped at my feet. He can bring ghosts and tricks and frights and take this straight to Halloweentown for all I care. I’ve put up with this for long enough. His creepy ass deserves everything he has coming!
Talbot, with the help of his cane, slowly stands to his feet and looks into Majors’ eyes and nods.
Dr. Castiel Talbot: I understand, Miss Majors… and I do not blame you for it at all. However, I would feel guilty if I did not leave without warning you. And I am sure you have heard this sort of thing plenty of times during your fantastic career, but… Samuel is no ordinary man. He is a monster. He does not feel remorse. Or sympathy. Because he does not know how. And I am afraid that because he has chosen you to be his next victim…
The doctor glances down at the championship over Majors’ shoulder.
Dr. Castiel Talbot: You may have to make the choice of what matters most to you… that championship over your shoulder… or your own physical and mental well being.
Jordan follows the doctor’s eyes to her shoulder and then tightens the grip she has on it. She looks at him and then points toward the door.
Jordan Majors: Doc… I think it’s time for you to leave…
She watches the man as he moves toward the door. It’s clear from her expression that the doctor’s words have shaken her somehow. She swallows hard as she looks down at the ground.
Jordan Majors: One more thing…
The doctor uses his cane to turn towards Jordan and she looks back up at him.
Jordan Majors: Tell Samuel that if he involves my girlfriend or anyone else I love in this again… he’ll find out who the real monster between us is.
Talbot simply nods to the World Champion before leaving the locker room as the camera focuses on the face of Majors as it shows a look of concern and perhaps even doubt as we cut elsewhere.
Dr. Castiel Talbot: Good evening, Miss Majors. I am glad I was able to catch you as I wish to have a moment of your time if I may?
Jordan looks past the doctor and down the hall both ways as if expecting someone else to be there.
Jordan Majors: What do you want? What is this?

Amber Westgate: Kaitlin Williams went on record earlier tonight to say that Crystal Hilton got this opportunity because she let her have it! That everything she does, she does it because she can!
Adam LaRue: Honestly, Amber? That’s not an assessment I’d be inclined to disagree with! Kaitlin Williams has been with Zion Wrestling for five months now and outside of maybe ISIS? She’s the most dominant competitor in the company! Hell, I’d go as far as to say that the two are equals, at this point!
Amber Westgate: Something like that doesn’t fare well for Crystal Hilton, but if her long list of accomplishments are anything to go by, The Burning Rose can always find a way to overcome the odds! Let’s see if she can do so again tonight!
Hilton and Williams circle the ring around one another, looking for a good place to start in this one! They eventually just go for it, locking up in the center of the ring as they struggle for control! Williams gets the initial advantage, roping Hilton right into a Side Headlock! However, Hilton shows that she’s no slouch, slipping out of the hold and transitioning it right into a Hammerlock! Williams struggles as Hilton slides her hand further between her own shoulder blades! Williams attempts to fight back, using her one free arm for an Elbow! But Hilton ducks it, using the arm as the perfect transition into a Hammerlock Suplex! Pin by Hilton!

ONE…!
TWO…!
Kick out one last time by Williams! She rolls up to her feet, immediately nailing a still-seated Hilton with a huge Knee Strike that sends her to the mat fully with a thud! She grabs Hilton by the arms, pulling her up to her knees before thumping the front of her skull again with a Knee Strike! Williams quickly covers, thinking that onslaught was enough to net her the victory!
ONE…!
TWO…!
NO! Williams grapevines the arms, bringing Williams’ shoulders down for a Crucifix Pin!

Kick out by Williams, who came just a hair away from taking her first loss! It’s in that realization that William’s eyes start to widen! Hilton sees the look of shock on her opponent's face as the two make it to their feet, reveling in the fact that she may have put some fear into her! Williams doesn’t take long to go back on the offensive, rushing towards Hilton for a Lariat! Hilton rushes underneath it however, hitting the ropes and coming back to take Williams down with a Running Hurricanrana! Williams scrambles to get back to her feet, with Hilton nailing her with a Dropkick that sends her doubling back into through the ropes and out of the ring! Hilton sees an opportunity to fly now, waiting for Williams to make it to her feet at ringside before hitting the ropes and connecting with a Suicide Tornado DDT! Williams’ head thumps against the ringside floor as Hilton sits up and psyches herself up before the crowd! She pulls Williams to her feet, a difficult task considering she was all but deadweight at this point, before throwing her into the ring! She quickly climbs in after her, going for the cover!
ONE…!

Kick out by Williams! Hilton is in further disbelief, thinking that move had to have been it! She looks to end this one, pulling Williams to her feet before going for a Mysteriorana!

Hilton tries to make her way back to her feet, only for Williams to immediately snatch her into the position and drop her with Krowned! Butterfly Lifting Facebuster connects! Pin by Williams!
ONE…!
TWO…!

Kick out by Hilton! Hilton gets out of it! Williams is in shock now, obviously not expecting this much of a fight out of her challenger! But she presses on, getting Hilton in position for Katastrophe! She goes for that Pumphandle lift, only for Hilton to retaliate, clenching her legs around Williams’ head as she goes up before dropping her with a surprise Canadian Destroyer! Williams gets dropped right on her head, leaving her on shaky foundation as she tries her damnedest to pull herself back to her feet! This proves to be the wrong move for the champion however, who finally pulls herself up only to immediately be met with Flashing Lights! Chick Kick to the champion! Williams goes down like a ton of bricks as Hilton swoops in for the cover!
ONE…!
TWO…!
THREE-
NO! Williams with the foot on the ropes! The referee notices it just an inch before their hand hits the mat! Hilton is in shambles now, thinking that would’ve surely ended the match had they been just a few inches away from the ropes! She doesn’t let up however, doing her due diligence to pull Williams to the center of the ring before climbing to the top rope! She launches off, looking to score the win with the Rose Prism Power! But Williams gets the knees up, driving them right into Hilton’s back as she lands for the 630 Senton! Hilton scrambles hard to get back to her feet, her back in screaming pain, but knowing that staying vertical and ready to fight is crucial right now! This serves as her downfall however, with Williams pushing Hilton from behind into the corner and taking her down with Sacrimony! Rolling Bridging German Suplex to the challenger! Williams isn’t finished however, rolling through and dragging Hilton back to her feet along with her before positioning her and dropping her with Katastrophe! Pumphandle Reverse STO connects with full force! Williams is at the end of her rope here, barely able to roll Hilton on her back before laying on top of her for the pin! She tries to hook the leg, but she can’t even muster the strength!
ONE…!
TWO…!
THREE!!
Darrion Hughes: The winner of this match…and STILL the Zion Wrestling NATIONAL! CHAMPION!...KAITLIN! WILLIAMS!
Amber Westgate: This right here was a war! A battle of who wanted it most! In the end, the answer to that question is once again The Crown Jewel! What a match, and what a win by the National Champion!
Adam LaRue: You said this was a war, but it was a war that Kaitlin Williams has proven time and time again that she is built for! Crystal Hilton gave her all in this match, maybe enough to knock off Williams on any other night! But tonight, the champ brough just a little extra to the ring with her!
Williams is helped to her feet by the official, her hand being raised as she handed the National Championship! But before she could celebrate for too long, "EXCITE" by Daichi Miura began to play over the arena’s speakers! The crowd comes alive, as Nao Saegusa steps through the curtain and down the ramp! The show comes to a close as Saegusa rolls into the ring, getting right into Williams’ face as the referee has to try and separate the two!
CRO1 ONE FALL!!
Darrion Hughes: And it is for the Zion Wrestling NATIONAL! CHAMPIONSHIP!

ONE…!

NO! Williams with the foot on the ropes! The referee notices it just an inch before their hand hits the mat! Hilton is in shambles now, thinking that would’ve surely ended the match had they been just a few inches away from the ropes! She doesn’t let up however, doing her due diligence to pull Williams to the center of the ring before climbing to the top rope! She launches off, looking to score the win with the Rose Prism Power! But Williams gets the knees up, driving them right into Hilton’s back as she lands for the 630 Senton! Hilton scrambles hard to get back to her feet, her back in screaming pain, but knowing that staying vertical and ready to fight is crucial right now! This serves as her downfall however, with Williams pushing Hilton from behind into the corner and taking her down with Sacrimony! Rolling Bridging German Suplex to the challenger! Williams isn’t finished however, rolling through and dragging Hilton back to her feet along with her before positioning her and dropping her with Katastrophe! Pumphandle Reverse STO connects with full force! Williams is at the end of her rope here, barely able to roll Hilton on her back before laying on top of her for the pin! She tries to hook the leg, but she can’t even muster the strength!
ONE…!
TWO…!

Darrion Hughes: The winner of this match…and STILL the Zion Wrestling NATIONAL! CHAMPION!...KAITLIN! WILLIAMS!
Amber Westgate: This right here was a war! A battle of who wanted it most! In the end, the answer to that question is once again The Crown Jewel! What a match, and what a win by the National Champion!
Adam LaRue: You said this was a war, but it was a war that Kaitlin Williams has proven time and time again that she is built for! Crystal Hilton gave her all in this match, maybe enough to knock off Williams on any other night! But tonight, the champ brough just a little extra to the ring with her!
Williams is helped to her feet by the official, her hand being raised as she handed the National Championship! But before she could celebrate for too long, "EXCITE" by Daichi Miura began to play over the arena’s speakers! The crowd comes alive, as Nao Saegusa steps through the curtain and down the ramp! The show comes to a close as Saegusa rolls into the ring, getting right into Williams’ face as the referee has to try and separate the two!
RESULT: PINFALL (KATASTROPHE)
