OPENING CONTESTTrey Wilde vs VLADISLAV
Both men had had great showings in the start of the tournament, so the crowd was eager to see this match. Trey sized Vlad up, knowing strength wouldn’t be what got him through the match as he took note of the size difference between himself and his opponent. Wilde went for a running buzzsaw kick to catch Vlad off-guard, and while the kick landed, it didn’t do much to Vlad other than make him take a couple of steps back. Wilde looked stunned and looked around at the crowd before launching himself off of the ropes, looking for a springboard dropkick that made Vlad stumble to the corner a bit. From there, Wilde launched off of the ropes again, this time hitting a springboard spinning kick onto the other man. Vlad gripped his chin where the kick connected, but he didn’t let it take him down like it would have done someone else. Just when it seemed like Trey was going for another move, Vlad grabbed him up in a belly-to-belly suplex.
He turned away from the turnbuckle before throwing the man over his head, slamming him into the mat in the process. Wilde got up and charged at Vlad, determined to use his speed to his advantage, but Vlad grabbed him and tossed him into the corner, his back slamming against the turnbuckles with a ferocity that made him suck his breath in. Vlad went for a running corner splash, but Trey was able to roll out of the way at the last minute causing Vlad to connect with the turnbuckle instead. As Vlad came out of the corner, Wilde went for a running blockbuster, but Vlad was able to counter it into a powerbomb, slamming him down to the mat hard! He waited for Wilde to get up before nailing him with a vicious Hammer of Warsaw, sending him falling to the mat in a slump! Vlad lifted Trey in the air before hitting The Iron Curtain before pinning him.
ONE…!
TWO…!!
THREE…!!!
WINNER: VLADISLAV
MATCH TWOThotline Miami vs The House of Wolves
Cindy Collins and Kassandra start this match for their teams, with each of them locking up immediately off the bell! Collins, being the resident powerhouse of her team, is able to get the upper hand early, sneaking around Kassandra for a Waistlock before lifting her up and slamming her to the mat with a Shoot Throw! She keeps the Waistlock cinched in on the mat! But she quickly fights out of it, pushing herself to her feet and prying Collins’ hands apart before rolling her up with a Victory Roll for a two count! The two women make it to their feet, with Collins looking for a Clothesline to Kassandra! She rushes underneath it however, hitting the ropes and coming back with a Big Boot to Collins! Collins falls back into the ropes, looking to bounce back as she approaches Kassandra again! But Kassandra keeps her at bay, nailing her with another Big Boot! She tags in Danae, before grabbing Collins and Irish Whipping her towards her partner for a Spinebuster! Pin by Danae for another two count!
Danae pulls Collins to her feet, looking for a Body Slam! But Collins reverses, landing on her feet behind Danae before sending her shoulder first into the ringpost! Collins follows up, grabbing Danae from behind and dropping her with a German Suplex! Danae rolls up to her feet, faltering back into the corner until Collins gets up off the move! Just then Danae rushes in, nailing her with a Spear! Both women are down, with Collins crawling towards the corner and getting the tag to Taylor Gibson! Gibson comes like a house of fire, immediately rushing to the Wolves’ corner and nailing Kassandra with a shot that sends her off the apron! Danae looks for a Big Boot, but Gibson rolls underneath it, hitting the ropes before nailing Danae with a Running Dropkick! Danae tumbles out of the ring, landing next to Kassandra at ringside! Gibson hits the ropes, leaping out of the ring and dropping them both with a Tope Con Hilo!

Pin by Danae, with Gibson shooting an arm up at the last possible moment! Danae looks to end this, getting Gibson on her shoulders for the Titan Slam! But Gibson reverses, pushing Danae into the corner before nailing her with a Superkick! Gibson tags in Collins, with the two taking Danae down with Schismatrix! Pin by Collins, securing the victory!
“Call Me” by Blondie is suddenly cut off by “Symphony No. 5” by Ludwig van Beethoven and the Tag Team Champions immediately turn their attention to the stage as Schadenfreude saunter out from behind the curtain and onto the stage with microphones in hand.
Dietrich Kühn: Congratulations on such an impressive victory, Ms. Collins and Ms. Gibson.
The Kühn brothers begin to slowly saunter their way down the ramp as “Symphony No. 5” cuts off.
Dietrich Kühn: Nein, seriously! Mein Bruder und ich are genuinely impressed by the talent you possess.
They reach the bottom of the ramp and then proceed towards the steel steps, meanwhile in the ring, Cindy Collins and Taylor Gibson are readying themselves for anything.
Werner Kühn: Be that as it may…
Schadenfreude wipe their feet on the apron before climbing through the ropes as they come face to face with Thotline Miami.
Werner Kühn: Judging from your words last week… it would appear that you do not quite understand why you two are a problem within this sport.
The Tag Team Champions share a look with one another and roll their eyes before turning their attention back to the two men standing in front of them.
Dietrich Kühn: Your name for starters. It is disgusting. It makes Werner and I physically sick even thinking about it. Professional wrestling has no place for filth like that.
Werner Kühn: The way you two carry yourselves? It is appalling. How you pander to these people? It is an insult to this great sport that Dietrich and I love.
The fans who were already booing from the moment Schadenfreude had shown up are booing even louder now.
Dietrich Kühn: And do not get this twisted, ladies. You two are not the only ones. In fact, a vast majority of this roster are the same. Had the Williams Dynasty emerged victorious on episode one of Wasteland? We would have assaulted them instead of you two.
Werner Kühn: Simply put, ladies. You two… much like the vast majority of this roster… you are not professional wrestlers. You are sports entertainers. It is slowly killing our sport and we… who are actual professional wrestlers… are the cure. That is why we targeted you. Because this new brand here in Zion needs to bring back what professional wrestling is supposed to be… and so it needs Tag Team Champions that reflect that.
While the brothers had been talking Taylor had grabbed a pair of microphones from a ringside technician, one for each of the champs.
Taylor Gibson: Yap, yap, yap. We get the gist. You're a couple of those “the art of pro wrestling” dorks.
The expressions of the brothers Kühn show they clearly don't take kindly to the way Taylor just spoke to them, Dietrich even balling his hand into a fist.
Cindy Collins: So that's really it then, huh? You said it yourself that you’re genuinely impressed by our talent, so it's just that you don't like us because of a name? Because we “pander to the crowd”, whatever that means? Because we don't walk around with sticks up our asses like you boys?
The crowd pops for the champions, but Cindy's comments only further draw the ire of Schadenfreude. Taylor hoists her championship belt up onto her shoulder, with a bit of an exaggerated action, to draw the attention of Dietrich and Werner to the fact that Thotline Miami were champions and they were not.
Taylor Gibson: Sad and cringe. You think our name is disgusting? Well I don't know how to pronounce your team’s name, but I looked up what it meant. “Pleasure derived from someone else’s misfortune”. Huh. Interesting. But two weeks ago you witnessed our good fortune, didn't you? So I guess that gave you the opposite of pleasure?
Cindy Collins: Wait, Taylor, that sort of sounds like you're describing jealousy…
Taylor Gibson: Oh. Are… are you boys jealous? Are you jealous that we’re Wasteland’s number one team and you aren't? Does it make you mad to watch us and know that you couldn't wrestle these titles away from us on your best night?
Cindy Collins: Does it make you mad?
Taylor Gibson: Huh? Does it make you mad?
Cindy Collins: Does it make you mad? Huh?
Taylor Gibson: Huh?
Dietrich then lunges forward only to be stopped by his brother, the younger Kühn yelling at the champions in his native tongue while Werner manages to talk to him and calm him down. Once the elder brother is satisfied that Dietrich has calmed down enough, he turns his attention back to Thotline Miami.
Werner Kühn: Jealousy is such a fickle mindset. We are not jealous. Clearly you weren’t listening to anything we just said… so you leave us with no choice…
Schadenfreude then drop their microphones and go on the attack, however this time, Thotline Miami see it coming and they too drop their microphones and now an all out brawl between the two tag teams begins with Werner and Collins going at it while Dietrich and Gibson trade blows.
As the two teams continue to brawl, Collins and Gibson are able to get the advantage and they deliver dropkicks in stereo to the Kühn brothers which sends them both over the top rope and to the outside. They manage to land on their feet and Dietrich seems ready to go again as he tries to get back into the ring, however Werner thinks better of it and stops him from doing so as Schadenfreude start to back up the ramp while yelling at the champions in German and signaling that they’re coming for the titles while in the ring, Thotline Miami raise their titles high and yell back at their adversaries as we cut elsewhere.
The room is lined with candles as a shadow makes her way through the room. A whisper is heard through the room then a whoosh of wind goes through as the flames and dust settle Kamila is kneeling in the middle of the room with all the candles point at her.
”WOBR” Kamila Rose: People tend to see me and they think. Oh she's just some push over, no one would have taken her seriously. I've worked just as hard as those people and even made some new friends along the way.
She then looks up with her piercing blue eyes smiling softly as she looked at the Cameraman.
”WOBR” Kamila Rose: tonight begins a new chapter in my story and those who stand in my way now know who I am. I am Kamila Rose, the black rose, to those who doubt me remember you brought this on yourself. The witch remembers her journeys and the roads she will take and if you wrong me.
She holds up a hanged man card and her eyes glow a soft green. She then placed it Down.
”WOBR” Kamila Rose: then she will come and take from you what you think you Are owed. This card serves as a final warning, Ember feasts on your soul.
She cackled then threw her hands up the candles go out and last thing heard.
“Run!”
MATCH THREEMarcus Uriah Dunne vs Ehan Cement, The Talented One
MUD and Ehan stood across from one another when Ehan started running his mouth about how he’s better than MUD. MUD rolled his eyes before going after Ehan who managed to dodge him for a minute, smirking and shaking his head as he did. Finally the two locked-up for control of the match, and MUD caught Ehan in a side headlock. He turned the headlock into a wrist lock then whipped Ehan into the ropes, nailing the man with a spinebuster when he came back at him. MUD got him back to his feet again, this time throwing him into the corner before following him. Before he could get a move on him, Ehan managed to nail him with a hard left that caused MUD to take a couple of steps back and turn his head. With a smirk on his face, MUD gripped where Ehan nailed him then looked at the man who had made his way out of the corner. The confidence on Ehan’s face quickly dropped when MUD came at him again, this time nailing him with an extremely vicious MUDslap! Ehan dropped to the mat, and the referee took a look at him before calling the match, raising MUD’s arm in victory.
Winner: MUD (TKO)
The camera panned back to a dark room, the only thing that was visible was a fire that had been burning for a while, but the flames were still at their peak. Eventually footsteps could be heard and Hana Kaneko came into the view, holding a Kitsune like mask in her hands that was specially designed for Genesis of Destruction. Kaneko purposely kept her face exposed this time, wanting the world to see her behind her masks. She just sighed as she looked at the camera.
Hana Kaneko: You know, I always thought that certain things were just known as common sense. I thought certain things, everybody should just know. If you're going to start something, you should be finishing it, regardless of what happens in between. In a puzzle where there's so many different pieces, you shouldn't just give up because you lost one of the pieces. You keep working on that puzzle and worry about the missing piece later. Maybe you find it, maybe you don't, and if you don't, then you just have a puzzle with a missing piece, it's that simple. You don't just throw away that puzzle because you lost one of the pieces.”
Hana paused to shake her head, keeping her eyes on the mask while she then looked over to the fire, the flames glimmering in the reflection of her eyes.
Hana Kaneko: “The point of my ramblings today aren't to be saying any names or to be calling anybody out, I'm really just speaking my mind for the first time in….what seems like months. Especially when people have told you that you aren't allowed to do things like this, because it goes against what you believe in. I can tell you guys, I don't really dip too much into religion. I don't see a God like others do, I really just live my life and keep hoping that I wake up the next day to keep that life going. But, some days I look in the mirror, and I wonder what happened to Hana Kaneko. Where did she go? Hana Kaneko isn't a mindless follower to someone who's playing make believe about being a deity. See, in Japanese culture, there are many gods. That's what I believe in, if you must know. There are around eight million different Kami in Japan.”
Another pause came from Kaneko, keeping her eyes on the burning fire as she leaned against the wall.
Hana Kaneko: “You say that you had to kill your own creation. That you had to get rid of it because of so much disrespect and all of these other reasons. I think the exact wording was something like…the thing that you loved that never loved you back.”
Hana just laughed, shaking her head again as she looked up from the fire, bringing her eyes back to her mask for just a moment.
Hana Kaneko: “That statement becomes funny when you are in the situation that I am in. The situation I'm happy to be in. I am a mother of two children, two amazing girls that I think are very good wrestlers as well. But here's the thing, I wouldn't abandon them if they don't love me back. You see, it should be common sense that respect, love, and obedience is NOT guaranteed. It is earned through how good of a parent you are. Kasumi and Yoko, they love me, they respect me, and they are the best kids I could ask for. Again, I'm not going to say your name, but you expected all of us to immediately respect you and be obedient. Here's the difference. I never beat up my kids. I never abandoned my kids. I never let my kids get kidnapped in the first place. That's why they are loyal to me, because I earned their loyalty. You? No. You beat the people close to you. You've let people get kidnapped, then blamed it on them. Showed zero sympathy.”
Hana paused once more, thinking about her next words as she was fiddling with the mask in her hands.
Hana Kaneko: “As a matter of fact, let me put it this way. When that missing person was returned, they were bruised. They were bloody. They had scars, dried blood, and pain in so many places. Do you know who helped fix that? Me. I don't like this person either. But I helped stitch those scars shut. I treated their bruises. I cleaned the blood off of their body. That person even had dinner with my wife and my children that night. I treated that person like one of my own because I would never want to see someone close to me go through that. While you didn't care, maybe I cared too much. I still maybe care too much, because that person still stays at my house sometimes. I don't know….there's just differences between you and me. You? You're heartless. Careless. The only thing you want is the gold you've always had over your shoulder. Me? I don't care if I have any gold on me, the important thing to me is that I have the love and respect of the people around me. You demand it from people, while I actually earn it from people.”
Hana hummed to herself, looking around the room once again. She smiled now, keeping her eyes on the camera.
Hana Kaneko: “As much as I would love to beat this kind of common sense into you, and take that championship away from you, I'm not going to go asking and begging for a match with you. I'm not going to throw a wrench into any plans that are going on, because I actually have respect for the people that keep this place going. Just know, that I have always, and always will see through your bullshit. You can talk about me all you want, on X, to your sister, whatever you want. Because I know you'll have a lot to say. Just know that I am in fact leaving this up to you. If you want to challenge my words, do things like a leader should. Fight me. When myself and Eden finish walking this road we are going on, you'll realize that we did it without your dictatorship. And for the day we meet in the ring? I hope you still have that around your shoulder. For you, that's something that you can have as a bragging piece to yourself and you can use it to bring other people down. For me, it's something I can show to my children and tell them that if they are as honorable as I am, they can be world champions too. But for now, I will leave you with this quote. Nietzsche. God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. How shall we comfort ourselves, the murderers of all murderers?”
With her final word spoken, Hana Kaneko dropped the mask into the fire, letting it burn into asked before she walked away and let the camera fade along with her.
MATCH FOUR: Octavia Black vs Sterling Jamison White
In the ring, we see Sterling Jamison White with a pointer in his hand, as he would speak to the crowd.
Sterling Jamison White
“Ladies and Gentlemen of the Zion Stadium… I know you all can't stop being glued to your phones to the point of having the attention span of a goldfish…”
He said, before getting some boos from some of the crowd, before he would speak again.
Sterling Jamison White
”But, as you all might know, I am a man of the arts. And when I had heard my opponent, Octavia Black, is an artist… I took it upon myself to see what she can do. Well! I had never been more appalled in my life!”
He said, before the tron would show an image on screen, as Sterling used a laser pointer to gesture to it.
Sterling Jamison White
”Look at this vulgar display! The nudity is so perverse! And not even a bush in sight! So much sin to behold!”
His rant about Octavia's work is cut short with “Unsettling Differences” playing, as we see Octavia making her way to the ring with disgust at the criticisms to her art. Sterling would berate her overuse of makeup, though, most of his rant is drowned out by her theme. She slides in to confront him and gives him a harsh slap that caused him to stagger, while the pointer flies away from his hand. She would then tell the official to start the bell, as the match is underway.
Sterling would re-adjust himself, as Octavia would mock his stature. He goes for a front grapple, as she slipped behind him, and goes to take him to the mat, looking for an early kneebar. She had the move locked in, as he escaped with a desperate kick. Sterling would scramble to the corner, as Octavia would be on her knees with a come hither finger to mock him and bait him to attack her.
Sterling rushed in to attempt the Whitewash on the kneeling Black, before she folds herself backward to cause him to kick over her, as Octavia stands back up. He turned around for a hasty punch, as Black would catch him with a hip toss, and then effortlessly locked in the Gruesome Masterpiece on him while he was down. She gets a pair of stomps in, before White would meekly tap out, humbled by her.

“KARATE” hits the speakers, and Risa Lemon struts out onto the stage, the Queen of Strong Style championship around her waist. She makes a motion to stop her music, and it fades to silence. With the crowd on the edge of their seats, the luchadora lifts her mic to her lips.
Risa Lemon: Kaya, Kaya, Kaya. The traitor. The backstabber. The whiner.
Risa frowns, shaking her head in mock sadness.
Risa Lemon: You and I used to be stable mates. Two women in the greatest wrestling group of all time, the Queens of Chaos.
The crowd reaction is mostly positive, though it's clear there are a few who object to that particular opinion.
Risa Lemon: But that's history, right? Let's talk about the current Kaya. The Poisoned Rose. The Ginger Complained. The Pasty Crybaby.
The crowd laughs as she continues.
Risa Lemon: Ever since this match got announced, all you've done is whine and cry and moan about how it's a title match for your belt, and that it isn't fair it isn't title for title.
She shrugs, and the crowd gets involved.
Crowd: YOU'RE A WHINER. YOU'RE A WHINER.
Risa giggles into her hand.
Risa Lemon: Here's the deal. I've been doing this almost a decade, Kaya. I've fought hard for everything I have. The titles. The fans. The merch deals and the sponsorships. Every single thing. I broke my freaking neck in a title defense.
She starts down the ramp now, slapping hands with the audience as she goes.
Risa Lemon: I didn't book this match. You keep saying I did favors for management to skew things in my favor.
The crowd laughs as Risa circles an ear with her pointer finger and mouths “she's nuts”.
Risa Lemon: But enough about that. See you threatened to rip off my pigtails and kick my head in. Well? As the old saying goes, if you're feeling froggy?
Risa climbs the stairs and enters the ring, unhooking her belt and holding it high.
Risa Lemon: Jump bitch.
She drops the microphone, holding her arms wide as the referee comes to take the QoSS title before the match begins.
Just as she had finished Ruslan had made his way out of the back. No Kaya in tow for the moment, he puts his hand into his pocket then looked into the ring. He smiled softly.
Ruslan Lucic: Your opponent will be out momentarily, as she is just finishing up another quick chat. Now I've heard what you said, and some of it while true… is far from the truth, she is the Poisoned Rose, and that is the Nickname I have to take the credit for. See when she trained with me, she became venomous, aggressive, something you'll see tonight.
Kaya comes out from the back carrying two roses as she stepped out of Ruslan's shadow. She smiled as she threw her cowboy hat off.
”the Poisoned Rose” Kaya Parker: you know mommy once said, if you don't have anything nice to say, then shut up you silly bitch. You know your right Risa I did threaten to rip out your pigtails, and after tonight after I do what to you what I've done to Jessi. You'll be begging me to do it. One last thing to remember is that one spark feeds the
She whispered something to the roses, as they lit up.
”the Poisoned Rose” Kaya Parker: the flames. You've lit it so let's do this.
Kaya throws her jacket and bandana off as she charges down to the ring looking Risa in the face as she holds up her gateway Championship.

The camera shifts backstage, where we find "The Renegade" Melody Slayton standing by, a stronger air of confidence about her and a smirk on her face following her big win one week ago.
Melody Slayton: Last week, Wasteland witnessed a spectacle. The Renegade, yours truly, Melody Slayton, put little Kelsey Savage in her place. It wasn't JUST a win; it was a statement. A statement that I am back… and I’m done fucking around.
She pauses, letting the weight of her words linger in the air.
Melody Slayton: Unacceptable losses and long stretches without even being booked marred my return to Zion last summer. I’m sure many of you fake fans wondered why I even came back in the first place. But last week was a brutal reminder that I am a force to be reckoned with. And tonight, in the semifinals of the Wasteland Championship Tournament, Jenna Sharpe… you're stepping into the lion's den with the hungriest, angriest beast you’ve ever seen.
Melody's eyes narrow, her gaze piercing through the camera.
Melody Slayton: See, I'm not just here for a match. I'm not just here to win a tournament. I'm here to claim what should have been mine a long time ago… Championship gold in Zion Wrestling. Two years ago I signed with this company, and throughout both of my runs here, I haven’t so much as sniffed a title opportunity. That ends tonight, when I leave Jenna in a pool of her own excrement and move on to my destiny. The Wasteland World Championship.
She smirks, a mix of confidence and arrogance in every word.
Melody Slayton: Tonight, the ring will be my canvas, and I will paint a picture of absolute domination. The finals are within my grasp, and nothing, and I mean NOTHING, will stand in my way. Jenna, congratulations on the only spot you deserve… to be a footnote in the history of Melody Slayton's rise to glory.
With a final confident smirk, Melody Slayton walks away, leaving the camera and the audience to absorb the gravity of her words.
After two long years, Melody Slayton has truly arrived in Zion Wrestling. And no one is safe.
Backstage, we see Kelsey Savage, the redesigned former "Hardcore" championship that she has dubbed the "Cutecore" championship around her waist. She began to speak.
"Here I am in Orlando. The tourist capital of Florida. The tourist capital of America, depending on who you ask. Do I have to be here? No, because I am not on the show tonight. Yet I felt like repeating my generosity and up the ratings for this show.
As a former Miami Hurricane, I would much rather the show was in a better city, but that's not the market we are going for apparently. I guess we want the Mickey and Minnie, Hannah Montana crowd. Which isn't too big of a shock with all the penguin talk going around. So, instead of all of this penguin of Madagascar talk, I have done everyone a favor and changed the title to a real title.
The rivalry continues this week on Fusion as Kimberly and I go one on one again. The storyline going in will be a bit different. I know how you play now. Poking your head at my matches, screwing me out of the win. So this time, you will be stuck like your dear penguins. Penguins can't fly, so you can't take that way out. Prepare to be stunned"
