As the show began the camera went backstage to Oliver Peters office, announcing for us that the Ascension Championship would officially have a champion in two weeks time, with a multi person elimination match taking place to crown the first ever Ascension Champion!
OPENING CONTESTWILLOW vs VLADISLAV
Due to unforeseen circumstances, Willow has been removed from the match and replaced with Mini Dozer.
The fans were disappointed with the last minute match change, but as is always advertised, the card is subject to change after all. Mini had made his way to the ring, and the bell was rang only moments later. Dozer went at Vladislav, looking for a lariat. When he only connected with the bigger man’s abdomen, he looked up at Vlad and immediately began shaking his head, holding his hands up. Vlad grabbed the man in a belly-to-belly suplex and threw him overhead, the crowd wincing at the thud Mini Dozer made as he came back down on the mat. Dozer tried to scramble out of the ring, but Vlad grabbed him, pulling him to his feet before he could only to send him crumpling back down with a big boot straight to the face.
Dozer managed to pull himself over to the ropes, using them to pull himself up in the corner. Vlad ran at the man who had set himself up in the corner and nailed him with a vicious running corner splash that had the crowd sucking their breaths in unison from the sight of how hard Vlad had slammed against Dozer. Vlad backed away from the corner, seemingly giving Dozer a bit of a breather, but he surprised everyone with a running dropkick to the man before pulling him out of the corner only to send him flipping heels over head with Hammer of Warsaw. He got Dozer to his feet once more only to get him up for Red Scare, slamming the man down with quite a bit of power behind the move. With Mini Dozer downed, Vladislav moved to pin him to end the match.
ONE…!
TWO…!!
THREE…!!!

In the offices of Ellie Segrave, we see the blue fauxhawk of Sayge Gonzalez over the headrest of the couch in her office, as she had been going through her own issues as of late. Ever since Daria Dorsey had put Austin St. Croix on the shelf, Sayge has been trying to find herself.
Ellie Seagrave
“Sayge… tell me. I've seen you having problems out there for awhile. Ever since Austin…”
Sayge Gonzalez
“Don't… she was always the one wanting to try for singles gold. Stubborn bitch wanted to beat ISIS… I get how she wanted to prove herself, but we never had our chance to do it together in the tag division yet. And when we finally do, that snake taken it away. She preyed on her friendship, despite all the time I had warning her! And now…”
Sayge had been fighting crying, before she stopped to let some of it out.
Sayge Gonzalez
“Now… now I'm alone. All I ever wanted was to team with the one person I ever trusted. The one real friend I had in an ocean of fake people… I talk with her in rehabilitation. She's healing, but, I seen plenty of people never come back after having their bones cracked in a bicep slicer. There's a reason that move is banned in several places! I just feel so lost without Austin here…”
Ellie Seagrave
“Sayge, I know it's been rough. But, you know she would hate seeing you like this. You gotta be strong for her sake. You're a great fighter, Sayge. You just need to really believe in yourself.”
Sayge Gonzalez
“I know… it's just harder every time.”
Ellie Seagrave
“I understand. Sayge, sometimes the biggest hurdle to success is the mind, itself. Until you truly believe yourself as a winner, you won't be a winner. I'm out of time tonight, but, let's chat some more in the future, and hopefully we can work together to get you over this slump.”
She would offer a card for Sayge, as she reluctantly takes it, and exhaled slowly.
Sayge Gonzalez
“Thanks… I'll sleep on it.”
She said, before tucking it in her pocket and walking out to try and clear her head a bit.
“Symphony No. 5” by Ludwig van Beethoven begins to play as a slow panning shot of Dietrich Kühn standing with his arms behind his back and looking into the camera is shown as we hear a voiceover from Heidi Krauss.
Heidi Krauss (voiceover): Dietrich Kühn… der tapfere Herrscher…
The video then switches to a slow panning shot of Werner Kühn standing with his arms behind his back and looking into the camera.
Heidi Krauss (voiceover): Werner Kühn… der tapfere Verteidiger…
Now the video shows clips of the two brothers in various tag team matches from their time working for other smaller wrestling companies.
Heidi Krauss (voiceover): Brothers who are the epitome of tag team wrestling… who have come to the Wasteland to bring legitimacy to Zion’s tag team division… and to take pleasure in the misfortune of others of course…
A clip of the brothers attacking Thotline Miami after their tag team championship victory is shown before cutting to a close up shot of Krauss with a wicked smirk on her face as she lets out a short, sharp chuckle. The shot then zooms out to show the brothers standing either side of her and looking into the camera.
Heidi Krauss: Lang lebe Schadenfreude.
The Kühn brothers then place their hands behind their backs, almost like they’re standing to attention as we then cut elsewhere.

MATCH TWO: Schadenfreude vs Bill and Bull Dozer
The bell rings as Werner Kuhn starts off the match against Bull Dozer! The two circle the ring, with the elder Kuhn seemingly about to entertain the idea of grappling with this enhancement talent! This turns out to be a trick however, as Werner immediately nails Bull with a boot to the midsection! He follows up, clocking Bull on the back with a fist! He throws Bull into the ring post shoulder first, before grabbing him from behind and tossing him with a German Suplex so huge that Bull makes a 180 rotation before landing face first on the mat! Werner immediately gets back and tags in Dietrich, who cuts off Bull as he tries to make a tag by nailing Bill Dozer off the ropes before he can make it to him! Bull decides to fight back now, nailing Dietrich with an admittedly good looking Uppercut! Dietrich is rocked by shot momentarily, but easily reaffirms control with a Headbutt! Bull goes straight to the mat, with Dietrich running to the ropes and jumping up to connect with a Lionsault! He immediately tags in Werner, with the two working together and taking Bull down with Lang Lebe Schadenfreude! Pin by Werner!

WINNERS: Schadenfreude
The camera shifts backstage, where a purple-clad Melody Slayton is pacing back and forth, occasionally glancing at the camera.
Melody Slayton: I’m gonna do my best to keep this short and sweet, so try to keep up. There’s not much point in rehashing stuff I’ve already said on Twitter - no, I’m not calling it X, fuck Elon Musk - but for the sake of preservation and the fact that the man child is likely to get that site shitcanned literally any day now… allow me to reintroduce myself.
She stops pacing and stares into the camera.
Melody Slayton: My name is Melody Slayton. The Renegade. And I’m done being disrespected.
A beat.
Melody Slayton: I didn’t re-sign with Zion Wrestling to be fed to the hot new flavor of the month and be forgotten. I don’t even remember the name of the last bitch I had to face on her debut over on Fusion, and neither does anybody else because as far as I can tell, she isn’t even here anymore. Know who still is? Even after all the bullshit? Even after not getting a match for over two months?
She angrily points in her own direction.
Melody Slayton: Me.
Another beat.
Melody Slayton: Humility is a boon for the weak. I’m the best damn thing in Zion, and Fusion not being able to see that is their loss. Luckily for Wasteland, Mr. Peters isn’t quite so blind. He sees me for what I am… a needle mover. A ticket seller.
She leans in closer as she continues.
Melody Slayton: I’m the workhorse this company SHOULD have been building itself around since the day I stepped foot in Zion. I’m better than anyone else on Mayhem, Fusion OR Wasteland, and I’m tired of pretending like I’m not just to keep the status quo feeling happy and secure in their own mediocrity.
Melody smirks confidently.
Melody Slayton: Wasteland is in need of a World Champion they can depend on. Someone who can carry this brand and make it the best damn thing going not only in Zion Wrestling, but in our entire business. That’s why I’m here. To fulfill my destiny and give Wednesday Night Wasteland the Champion they deserve.
A pause.
Melody Slayton: And I’m DAMN sure not gonna lose to some nobody in the first round of this tournament. So sorry, not sorry, Kelsey. You pulled the short straw and got matched against the heavy favorite, so don’t get too down on yourself when you’re staring up at the lights tonight for the 1… 2… 3.
Melody gets close to the camera, her expression changing to an almost peaceful lack of emotion.
Melody Slayton: The Renegade is inevitable. I meant it when I said you didn't know the MEANING of the word Savage. Tonight, you belong to me.
Melody continues glaring into the camera as the shot fades to commercial.

Winner: Trey Wilde
The camera cuts backstage where Amy Porter is smiling into the camera and holding up a microphone.
Amy Porter: ”Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome my guests, the first ever Wasteland Tag Team Champions… Thotline Miami!”
The camera zooms back a little as Cindy Collins and Taylor Gibson step into the shot, each with a championship belt draped over a shoulder. Taylor is wearing black cargo pants and a black mesh, short sleeve crop top. Cindy has pink Camo pants and a black, long sleeve crop top. Both girls are newly sporting pink highlights in their blonde hair; the Wasteland colors.
Amy Porter: ”Cindy. Taylor. You went out to the ring last week not even expecting to have a title match, yet here you are now, the inaugural Wasteland Tag Team Champions. What went through your minds during all that?”
Cindy Collins: ”Well first of all, we always go out there ready to put it all on the line and take home the W, title match or not. We were ready for the Williams Dynasty, the impromptu title match doesn't add any pressure for us, we've been to the big dance, we've been champions in Zion before-”
Taylor Gibson: ”A hundred and fifty three days!”
Cindy Collins: ”A hundred and fifty three days, Amy.”
Amy Porter: ”Wow…”
Amy looks at the girls, wide-eyed and in awe.
Taylor Gibson: ”Winning these Wasteland Tag Team titles felt every bit as amazing as when we won the Zion World Tag Team Championship… for about five seconds! Before we got attacked from behind!”
The normally bubbly Taylor is suddenly fuming, her demeanor changing on a dime.
Cindy Collins: ”You know, we kinda get it, we even respect them going after us in the way that they did, kinda, sorta. Werner and Dietrich get that these titles are something worth fighting for, something worth getting your hands dirty for. Buuuut… then they said something afterwards which we DON’T respect them for. Didn't they, Taylor?”
Taylor Gibson scrolls through her phone, looking for a transcript of Schadenfreude’s interview from last week.
Taylor Gibson: ”Blah, blah, blah, blah… something in German… Blah, blah, blah… Thotline Miami are part of that problem and now they are parading around here as Tag Team Champions.”
Taylor’s eyes very slowly glance up into the camera and she shakes her head from side to side in a very Jim Halpert-esque way. Cindy also looks into the camera, with a message specifically for the Kühn brothers.
Cindy Collins: ”Part of what problem exactly? We've worked our asses off to make tag team wrestling a highlight in Zion and in the wrestling world at large and we won't take slander like that.”
Taylor Gibson: ”It's easy to hit us from behind like a pair of cowards, anyone can do that. Others have done it better than you. PLEASE step up to us, face to face. You can bring your manager and you can bring all your dirty tricks, we don't care. You've earned yourselves an ass-kicking and we’re gonna deliver.”
Amy Porter goes to speak, but Cindy tilts the microphone back to herself.
Cindy Collins: ”We’re not backing down from anybody. Resting on our shoulders, these titles are going to be harder to win than even the “undisputed” tag team titles and that's a promise. We don't care if you're Wasteland… we don't care if you're Fusion… we don't care if you're Mayhem… we don't care if you call yourselves the best tag team someplace else… the actual best tag team are waiting for you to step into the Wasteland and that goes DOUBLE for Schadenfreude.”
The two champs stare intensely into the camera before the scene fades out.
Inside the Zion Stadium, Selene Jackson was seen backstage with Lorelei Jackson. The two were in a dimmed area of the arena, choosing to be away from others to a degree. Sure, there were still people walking around, but it wasn’t one of the more high traffic areas of the building as other parts were.
Selene Jackson: Jenna Sharpe…finally someone that I can look forward to facing. Oh don’t get me wrong, taking little Gianna to her limits on Friday was certainly fun, but Jenna is a name that I’ve seen around for a little while.
Selene smirked, looking at her sister who had a smirk of her own spread across her face. Jackson looked back at the camera and shook her head for a moment.
Selene Jackson: You’re about honor and respect, Jenna…and that is something that I, myself, can respect even if I don’t fully agree with it. That’s why my sister will be remaining backstage during our match…I don’t want her to have any temptation to try and get involved if she feels like she needs to.
Lorelei gave Selene a confused look…obviously that was not something that had been planned or discussed ahead of time. Selene gave Lorelei a look that told her not to contradict her, and the younger of the two did not bring it up. Looking back at the camera, Selene licked her lips before she continued.
Selene Jackson: We both want to be the inaugural champion, Jenna, so let’s see who the better woman is. You want honor and respect? Let’s see how well you can achieve it against me.
Selene paused, some of her dual-toned hair falling in her face as she did. Rolling her eyes, she pushed the hair out of her face before continuing.
Selene Jackson: As the runner of the Twitter account asked…does the Rose bloom or wither under the moonlight? Let’s find out, shall we? I’ll see you out there.
With that, Selene pushed passed the camera with Lorelei following behind her, still seemingly unhappy about the fact that her sister had said for her to remain in the back. The scene faded as the pair faded from view of the camera.

Winner: Melody Slayton
The scene cuts to ringside. In the ring sitting on a steel folding chair is ISIS. The lights are out except for a single spotlight that is hovering over ISIS. Predictably the fans are booing the World Champion of Fusion. She maintains a stoic expression throughout the smattering of disapproval.
ISIS:God is dead...
She takes a deep breath, allowing that all to sink in. A rare smile forms on her face.
ISIS:I breathe a sigh of relief uttering those words. You don’t understand how much power that gives me.
Before there was a God of Destruction, ISIS was all that was. Several tragedies happened to me, one after another. Is it not normal in life to find meaning behind your suffering? That’s exactly what I did. I believed Fate molded me to become its God of Destruction. You can’t argue with results. I am still undefeated. I am your World Heavyweight Champion. Life is good... the truth is, not completely. Circumstances brought me, Eden, Hana, Leg-- sorry, Tarja now. And Maki together. I once again believed this was all part of Fate’s masterplan. I had my own Genesis of Destruction, we were supposed to blaze a path through Zion Wrestling. Sometimes you are wrong...
ISIS stands up. She snaps her fingers. All the arena lights come to light now. She runs her free hand through her hair.
ISIS:What makes a God powerful? Believers. I have come to accept that their belief in me wasn’t strong enough. Hana openly tweets she doesn’t see a God when she looks at me. Eden openly tweets G.O.D is a means to an end, I wanted her to become the next God of Destruction. I was wrong to place my faith in a woman who didn’t share the same belief I held in her. Tarja is going through a metamorphosis. I signed a deal with Legion, not Tarja. All this brings me to Maki...
The crowd springs to life cheering the newly liberated Maki Megumi. ISIS scowls in contempt but she maintains her composure enough to get through the rest of her speech.
ISIS:She was the only one who believed in me. Did she really? The entire time she was needy. Co-dependent. Desperate for anyone to love her. The moment anyone else outside G.O.D showed her the smallest bit of affection, she forgot who was the one who saved her career from the abyss after ONI died an uneventful death. Without me no one would remember who she was.
The crowd boos that assessment. ISIS waits for the noise to die down.
ISIS:I own up to my mistakes. I became to trusting of what I believed Fate had in store. I don’t need to be Fate’s God of Destruction anymore. Nietzsche was right, God is dead. So is Genesis of Destruction. Hana and Eden are free to go about their careers as they wish. If they want to stand by my side, fine, we can talk. Not as “God” and “disciples.” I have a feeling they want nothing to do with me now anyway, no real loss.
So what becomes of ISIS now? Well, one thing hasn’t changed. I may not be Fate’s God of Destruction anymore. No one can dispute that I am a Destroyer. That is the nickname my fellow Wolf of Odinn brother Alastair Frost bestowed on me. ISIS, The Destroyer has a nice ring to it. Tonight is my rebirth.
So whoever Peter’s found to face me, , you are in the wrong place at the wrong time. You didn’t come to Wasteland to leave the World Champion, Welcome to Dystopia. It’s hell here. Enjoy your stay. I’ll make it as unpleasant as humanly possible...
ISIS tosses the microphone out the ring. She patiently waits for her opponent to come to the ring.
Match Five: Kali Bates vs ISIS (c)
Zion Wrestling World Championship Match
Bates and ISIS get things started right off the bell, going immediately into a Collar-and-Elbow Tie-Up! The normally calculated ISIS is baited into a less strategic way of offense, not getting a feel for her new adversary as she usually does! This is a mistake that Bates makes her pay for, using her tremendous strength in her own right to back ISIS into the corner! The official tries to go for the five count, but Bates ignores it entirely, causing ISIS to have to push back before she takes this one by disqualification! She pushes Bates back to the center of the ring, only for Bates to immediately hook her with a Knee to the midsection! She gets ISIS in position for a Powerbomb, only for the World Champion to fight back with a Back Body Drop to shake her off! Bates immediately gets back to her feet, running towards ISIS in a bid to keep momentum on her side! But ISIS is quick to counter, nailing Bates with a Big Boot before lifting her up and dropping her with a Back Suplex! Pin by the champion!
ONE…!
TWO…!
Kick out by Bates! ISIS doesn’t let up on her challenger however, pulling Bates up by her arm and nailing her with repeated boots to the head as she gets her up to her feet! She quickly keeps the onslaught going, getting Bates onto her shoulders in a Fireman’s Carry position before dropping her face down on the top turnbuckle! It’s here that ISIS starts to toy with Bates, first nailing her with a Knee Strike across the midsection as she lays across the top rope! She quickly turns Bates over, now nailing her with a Chop straight to her chest! She finishes things off brutally however, stepping up to the bottom rope and using it to slingshot upwards before coming down on Bates with a Double Knee Drop! Bates crashes to the mat, with ISIS rolling her out of the corner going for the pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
Another kick out by Bates! ISIS tries to finish this one off early, getting Bates to her feet and looking for her signature Leg Hook Saito Suplex! But Bates begins to fight back, however, nailing ISIS over the head with a few Elbows straight to the temple! ISIS is able to bounce back however, continuing to fix Bates into position! It’s at this point that Bates switches lanes, bending over and biting ISIS on the top of her head! The World Champion is in shock and disgust over Bates’ actions, immediately backing away to access the damages! Bates stands there and stares at ISIS in return, seemingly in a bid to intimidate her further! What Bates doesn’t realize is that ISIS is a hard woman to intimidate, as she immediately looks to take her down with a Lariat! Bates rushes underneath it however, hitting the ropes before rushing in and dropping ISIS with a Hurricanrana! ISIS pops back to her feet, only for Bates to follow up with a Dropkick! ISIS once again gets to her feet, only for Bates to get her in position and attempt to lift her up! ISIS uses her weight to fight back with all her might, but Bates is able to pull off an unbelievable feat of strength as she drops ISIS with a Falcon Arrow! She hooks the leg for the pin!

Kick out by ISIS! Bates starts tearing at her hair, seemingly getting fired up here! She backs into the corner, waiting for ISIS to get to her feet before rushing in and going for the Broken Spirit! But ISIS is able to counter the Spear attempt, taking Bates straight to the mat with a Bicycle Kick! Bates is nearly out of it now, struggling to get to her feet before ISIS pulls her up and into position on her shoulder! Bates begins to fight back as ISIS drags her to the center of the ring, nailing her with punches to the top of the head! When those don’t work, Bates sticks with what does as she bites on the top of the head again! Even that isn’t enough to stop the inevitable however, as ISIS plants Bates with Welcome to Dystopia! One-Armed Powerbomb to the debuting star! Pin by ISIS!

Winner: ISIS (#ANDSTILL)
Backstage, Jenna Sharpe is prepping for her main event match when she catches sight of the camera and smiles.
Jenna Sharpe: So, one of the questions I’ve gotten since coming to Zion is who exactly is Jenna Sharpe? I told you guys a little bit last week, but obviously Olly wanted to talk about the present and the future, not the past. I’m sure the Canadian fans have heard of Edmonton Sharpe, the best technical wrestler our country ever produced.
Reaching for her phone, she pulls up a black and white photo of a young man comfortably holding another man in a cobra clutch.
Jenna Sharpe: That’s him there, using his favorite hold - the Calgary Clutch. Him and my grandma had twelve kids and a few of them became wrestlers, but it seemed like their generation was cursed. My mom got pregnant young and had to retire early. My uncle Ray and my dad got involved in some shady dealings and they ended up spending more time in jail or on the run than in a ring. And then there was Mike. He had all my grandpa’s talent, he was tall and handsome… and he dropped dead from a heart attack in the middle of a ring eighteen years ago.
As she talks about her family, she swipes through more photos on her phone, stopping on a photo of her uncle, mother, and grandfather together, celebrating a title win of Mike’s.
Jenna Sharpe: Losing my uncle devastated our family in ways that my generation is still coping with. My cousins and I decided that 2020 was gonna be our year to come into the business and do what our parents didn’t. And for the first few months at least, it seemed to work. We all won championships, both singles and tag team, but the cracks started to show. Mikey started using again and ran off. Switch disowned all of us and the family name. A couple of my other cousins tried briefly, but they flamed out pretty quickly.
More memories flicked by, finally landing on Jenna being crowned the winner of the Kings & Queens of Carnage tournament in Valiant Wrestling.
Jenna Sharpe: I’m the last Sharpe standing. I am the last one of us to still carry the weight of our grandfather’s legacy on her shoulders, and I am ready to do what it takes to reach the top of Wasteland, starting tonight with Selene Jackson. I’ve got no ill will toward my opponent - I’ve watched her matches and she’s talented as hell. I respect her, but I am absolutely not letting her get out of this first round. It’s been a year since my last opportunity like this and it took me forever to climb that mountain. Here in Zion, I am not letting that happen again. I am going to teach Selene why you don’t mess around with a Sharpe and why I’m the one that’s destined to win this whole damn thing.
She tucks her phone away and blows a kiss to the camera, heading toward the curtain as she stretches her arms across her chest.
MAIN EVENT: Jenna Sharpe vs Selene Jackson
Jenna and Selene stared at each other for a few moments after the bell rang. Neither made a move to get started, but Jackson surprised Sharpe and everyone else by extending her hand in respect to the other woman. Wary of what could happen, Jenna was cautious to take the woman’s hand at first, but eventually did so…fully expecting for a cheap attack to occur. A collective sigh was heard from the crowd when that didn’t happen, and the two women locked up in the middle of the ring after releasing hands. Jenna caught Selene in a side headlock where she applied pressure for a few moments before she threw her into the ropes, nailing her with a superkick when Jackson came running back at her. The kick from Sharpe sent Jackson to the mat, but she didn’t stay down long enough for Sharpe to capitalize on her. Selene held her jaw as she stood up, a smirk on her face as she stared at the woman across the ring from her. Jackson ran at Sharpe, looking for a lariat, but Jenna ducked under Selene’s arm only to turn around and send her to the mat with a jumping reverse bulldog.
A look of frustration crossed Selene’s face as she pushed herself up, now glaring at Jenna who looked pleased with herself. Jackson ran at the woman again, this time managing to hit her with a running dropkick that sent her stumbling into the corner. From there, Jenna turned herself around just in time to be met with a vicious clothesline that left her reeling for a few moments. Trying to take advantage of the moment, Selene backed herself up only to run at Jenna, looking for Exit Night but no! Sharpe escaped in the nick of time, and Jackson’s shoulder met with the ring post instead! Selene gripped her shoulder, carefully rotating her arm around to assess for damage, letting out a sigh of relief when she found that she could still move everything. However, all of that gave Jenna a chance to recover, leading her to run over to the corner and jump onto it, catching Selene with Sharpe-nado! Instead of releasing Jackson, Sharpe moved into Devil’s Trap! Selene began hissing in pain but didn’t give in at first causing Jenna to add more pressure and torque where she could. Finally, after what seemed like a while, Selene finally tapped out, giving Jenna the win!
