“LIKE IT! LOVE IT!” by Setsuna Yuki hits the arena and the crowd in the arena giving a huge positive reaction for Ayu Megumi who coming out from the backstage but today is different than usual she not have even her smile for today as she walks out from the backstage with her serious expression after three weeks ago she get attacked by Erissa during her match and two weeks ago get attacked by Scylla during her segment with Erissa and that really annoying the amazing girl of Zion Wrestling and one of three Megumi’s sisters in Ayu Megumi who rolls to inside the ring and asking the microphone from the ring announcer in Darrion Hughes before Ayu walks back to the middle of the ring with the microphone in her hand while her theme song slowly die down as the crowd claps their hands for her as Ayu slowly brought the microphone up to her lips.
Ayu Megumi: Sorry tonight I feel not happy enough to smile because just like three weeks ago I meet some cowards name Erissa who claim she is god but I’m enough of this thing since ISIS claim she is god I’m bored! And everyone bored about it! And yeah it’s really pissed me off when someone like Erissa is cost my match against Mai Blackman and just two weeks ago during my segment against her some bitch who want to be just puppet of coward like Erissa attacked me again at first I didn’t even know her name but now I think I know already, Scylla right? Yeah Erissa your plan is working really well and yeah you get in my head and really make me pissed off yeah if that what you want you success but because of stupid cheap tactics and I really hate it! I hate everything about it cheating and attacking like cowards is unacceptable and I know you going to listening to me right now, Erissa! I don’t know where are you right now but I will make my statement here I will taking my revenge from you and make you realize that you are just false god and you are nothing here! I will make you regret when you trying to play with me, Erissa! I will make you see that you messed with the wrong person and when I win I hope that you are nothing but just cowards!

Because I want to revenge you for what you did to me two weeks ago don’t think I will forgot about it, Scylla! When I taking you serious no way to escape for me and I will handing you back to Erissa with your lifeless body next week! See you, Scylla!
Ayu finished her words and approaches Darrion Hughes and handing the microphone back while “LIKE IT! LOVE IT!” by Setsuna Yuki began to plays again before Ayu rolls out of the ring and walks back to the backstage before the scene fading out.
We open to an obviously pre-recorded video, to an irate Kaitlin Williams--however long passed between the end of Mayhem 106, and this video being recorded, it clearly hasn’t settled the Crown Jewel’s rage. She paces back and forth, an almost manic laugh spilling out of her throat before she turns her attention to the camera, a sneer twisting onto her face.
Kaitlin Williams: “I swear to god...”
Starting off well; Kate can barely spit out four words and maintain her composure, pushing a hand through her hair to get it out of her face.
Kaitlin Williams: “I could give some people on this fucking show a literal fucking winning lottery ticket, and you’d find a way to ruin it. I could give some of you everything you ever wanted, and you’d find a reason to throw it away. But Jordan fucking Majors, you might...you might actually, genuinely, be the stupidest cunt I’ve ever had the misfortune of crossing paths with. In no uncertain terms, I gave you the opportunity of a lifetime--no work, no effort on your part, no nothing, just stay the fuck out of my way and use your goddamn head a little bit, and I’ll hand you a chance to get back to the World Championship. I’ll hand you an opportunity to take the goddamn title shot I had in my hands away from me--and what did you do? Huh? What the fuck did you do, instead of doing the smart thing?”
Kaitlin shakes her head, scowling as she starts to pace back and forth again.
Kaitlin Williams: “You sat there...and you thought, nah, I’m gonna be abjectly fucking stupid, and pretend like I didn’t understand the point that was being made. You sat there, and you thought, obviously Kate changed her whole fucking M.O. because...”
She scoffs a little.
Kaitlin Williams: “...because you actually, genuinely think you sound threatening when you talk, I guess. Because you actually, really think you intimidated anyone with that little rabble-rabble speech you gave before that match with Allen. You thought you actually, genuinely scared me into not showing up, but you had to make that extra little statement because you’re a fucking idiot. I handed you gold on a silver platter, and you thought...nah, I’d rather get my ass beaten for nothing, at this point.”
Kaitlin exhales a long breath--seemingly, unloading some of these thoughts into the camera is allowing the Crown Jewel to come down from her anger, as she actually manages to find real, genuine laughter for a second...before it twists into a more sadistic, malevolent tone.
Kaitlin Williams: “I know hearing that’s probably uncomfortable, because you’ve got this fantasy in your mind that you’re gonna come out of Battleborn looking good--I know hearing me say I’m going to beat you bloody probably doesn’t quite sit right, because you have this whole fairy tale in your mind that you’re the all-conquering hero and I’m just the latest villain to be taken down. And I get that...I really do, I get that you have this...this twisted view on reality; you’ve got this fantasy in your mind...that I’m just some fuckin’ nobody, trying to make a name for myself off the back of someone So MuCh BiGgEr ThAn Me, right? And that’s making you think...that this is going to be an easy night for you, that you’re going to...heh, what was it, end me? Put me out of this place for good, huh? You’ve never understood why, exactly, I wanted this match in the first place, but you love to talk like you get it. You’ve never understood why I walked out and interrupted you back in January, you’ve never understood why I held onto this like I did...
Kaitlin Williams: “Except...you do, don’t you? You just don’t want to get it, because you don’t like what it says about you. Let’s go back a couple years, hey? Invasion in London, ring a bell? You get your big, crowning moment...and it gets snatched away, and you feel...what? Neglected? Like you didn’t get what you should’ve? Circumstances be damned, you deserved that opportunity...to prove you should be at the top, right?”
All of a sudden, Kaitlin’s genuinely smiling, as if she were trying to make a connection with Jordan for a moment.
Kaitlin Williams: “So you do what you think will get you that opportunity...everything in your power to get you that title opportunity, but it never comes. It took...eight...months before you finally got what you felt like you deserved...is this all sounding a little more familiar, now? You get it...you understand why I hung onto this kind of spite for you, you just don’t like that it’s coming at your expense. When you were the justified one, when you felt like you had the moral high ground, it was fine to do anything and everything, right? Up to and including wiping someone out of a whole pay per view...but now that someone feels that way about you...”
Kaitlin Williams: “Think back...all that rage, all that anger, it woulda been eased pretty easily, right? One...match...one opportunity to get what you felt like you deserved, that was all it would’ve taken. Ironic, right? Because here we are...all of this, all of this coulda been taken care of eight fucking months ago, if you weren’t suddenly secured in that little bubble you used to complain about, of motherfuckers being protected and given the kind of safety that makes them soft...I don’t even blame you for pretending like you didn’t see the real challengers, because I promise I’m going to show you what would’ve happened if you actually had the guts to give me the title shot I earned last year...”
Kaitlin chuckles a little, letting the thought just dangle there for a moment.
Kaitlin Williams: “You have this...this belief, that I’m just some fuckin’ nobody, nobody that could ever pose a threat; I’m somebody that’s just supposed to be led to slaughter, right? Someone for the all-righteous Jordan fucking Majors to put down so she can keep feeling good about herself. You’ve convinced yourself that I’m somebody who needs the tricks, the sneak attacks and the weapons and whatever else you tell yourself to make Battleborn feel more comfortable for you...but I’ll tell you what’s not gonna happen this time, though, just to...just to put you at ease. Just so we can be crystal fucking clear about everything...
Kaitlin Williams: “There won’t be any fuckin’ music playing as a distraction, as if I would stoop that fucking low.
Kaitlin Williams: “There won’t be anyone HeLpInG me, like you blamed for the last time we were in the ring together.
Kaitlin Williams: “Hell, I’ll walk down the ramp first so you know where I’m at if it’ll put your mind at ease. Because here’s the truth: I don’t need any of it, I don’t need you compromised to do what I’m going to do to you...
Kaitlin Williams: “So I’ll walk down the ramp first. I’ll wait for you in the ring, I’ll give you every opportunity in the world to do whatever you think you’re justified in doing...and then, I’m going to fucking brutalise you. I’m going to batter you from pillar to post, I’m going to stain the mat with your blood, I’m going to beat you...until you’re begging me to put you out for good, until you’re begging me to end this miserable fucking career you think you’ve carved out for yourself. You won’t have any excuses this time, you won’t have any justifications, you won’t have anything...to lean on, to explain away why this...this fuckin’ nobody that you think you’re stepping in the ring with, put you down. All you’ll have is a memory, just before you go black...of the 29th of March, of Battleborn, and of Kaitlin Williams standing over you...knowing you’ve learned just what happens...when you step to the Crown...”
Kaitlin’s sneer twists into a malicious scowl, her eyes practically burning holes in the lens of the camera as she spits out the all too familiar final words, just before the camera cuts to black.
Kaitlin Williams: “YOU...BOW!”
Darrion Hughes: Ladies and gentleman! The following contest is scheduled for ONE! FALL!
The arena goes dark suddenly, as the low, grungy guitar riff of Scroobius Pip's "Let 'Em Come" starts to fill the arena. An array of different colored lights start to swirl through the arena, lighting up different sections of the audience for a moment before moving right along to somewhere else. A few seconds pass, and it's only when the singer speaks up that the curtain is pushed aside, and Kaitlin Williams comes pushing through, immediately spreading her arms out wide, a sly little smile on her face as she glances out into the arena. She holds her spot in the center of the stage, rolling her neck out to either side, only making her way down the ramp when she’s good and ready.
Kaitlin's clearly in no particular hurry, as she more saunters down the ring, occasionally glancing to either side of her to take in the fans at the aisleway. It’s never for more than a moment or two, though, as the most regard the Crown Jewel is willing to give is a little tilt of the head to one fan in particular trying to get her attention--whatever he may have been saying, it didn’t do much to faze her, and she just continues to move on.
Darrion Hughes: Introducing first, from Adelaide, South Australia: weighing in at 156 lbs, she is the self-proclaimed Crown Jewel of Professional Wrestling, KAITLIN WILLIAMS!
The lights go down and then red lights blink on the stage as “Warrior” by Stitched Up Heart begins to play.
Warrior… Warrior…
I’m… I’m a…
Warrior… Warrior…
I’m… I’m a Warrior!
A spotlight shines on the center of the stage to show Jordan Majors from behind, arms outstretched. She turns around right as the guitar riffs and pumps a fist with a smile across her face. She looks out at the crowd and nods a few times before she begins walking down the ramp.
Jordan keeps her eyes on the ring as she heads down the rampway. She gets to the bottom of the ramp and surveys the crowd once more before running and sliding into the ring. She stays on her stomach. She leans on her elbows and kicks her feet behind her before rolling to her feet. Jordan runs and jumps up on the nearest corner and puts one arm up as she looks out at the crowd and nods her head.
Darrion Hughes: Introducing next, from CHICAGO! Weighing in at 135 lbs! JORDAN MAJORS!
Amber Westgate: This has been an extremely personal feud at times, but all physically. These two have sent their message through action instead of words.
Adam LaRue: When the bell rings, I expect fireworks!
Kaitlin charges at Jordan! Majors ducks a forearm and drives an elbow into Kaitlin’s back! Williams turns through the pain and grabs Jordan by the arm and spends her down to the canvas with an arm drag motion, only to kick her in the side of the head! Jordan rolls away, but she’s pounced by Williams who unloads mounted punches on the ground! Majors grabs her and rolls them over to Williams’ back and repays the favor! But Kaitlin pushes her away quickly and they both roll to their feet.
They charge at each other and start delivering rapid fire right hands with the left grabbing each other’s necks! Kaitlin breaks through with a pair that rocks Jordan backwards and then follows up with more as Jordan stumbles into the ropes. Williams runs forward and clotheslines her over the rope and to the floor and then grabs the ropes and lets out a scream as the crowd gives her a strongly mixed reaction.
Williams drops to her back and rolls out of the ring to grab Majors by the hair and swing her back into the ring as the official warns her about being out of the ring and then additionally about grabbing the hair. Williams slides into the ring and jaws back at the official as she Majors gets back up to her feet. Kaitlin pulls Majors close and unloads a European uppercut! Jordan spins around and Kaitlin hits the belly-to-back suplex! She rolls over for the pin!
ONE...!
TWO...!
Majors kicks out and Williams just grins as she pulls Majors back to her feet only to slap her! Jordan stumbles back a step and then turns angry toward her opponent. But an enzugiri catches her and drops her down to her knees! Kaitlin turns her body and then spins into a roundhouse kick to the side of Majors’ head!
Amber Westgate: Kaitlin has waited for a long time to get this match. And she’s making the most of it.
Adam LaRue: She changed this match with one stiff right hand and it’s been all Williams ever since.
Williams pulls Majors up by her arm and then twists the arm around before she unleashes a double knee armbreaker! Jordan stumbles backward holding her arm into the corner. Kaitlin follows her into the corner and unleashes a chop across Majors’ chest! She moves in closer and puts a hand on Jordan’s throat as she comes face-to-face with her and begins to speak between them. The official steps in and Kaitlin relents as she walks away and starts to mock Majors’ signature taunt before her signature running hip attack. Williams dashes into the corner and goes for the DONK BONK! Majors dodges it! Williams crashes into the corner and Jordan turns and hits CHAPTER 11! A DOUBLE KNEE FACEBREAKER OUT OF NOWHERE!?
Williams falls backward into the corner and Majors crawls across the mat to the corner directly across the ring.
Amber Westgate: Time and time again, we see exactly this from Majors. She will find that thing from within to save herself and instantly change the momentum.
Adam LaRue: I think Williams was getting a bit overconfident in the moment. Majors lulled her in for a moment like that.
Jordan gets to her feet and runs across the ropes and drives double knees into Williams! Kaitlin’s head bounces off the middle turnbuckle pad and Majors rolls away and then pulls Kaitlin to her feet before she snap suplexes her away from the corner! Majors stands and angles herself over Williams before she hits a standing moonsault! On the force Majors bounces back to her feet and runs to the ropes and hits a springboard moonsault!
Williams tries to roll away and Majors reaches out and grabs her by the arm to hold her nearby. Majors grabs Kaitlin by the chin and guides her up to her knees as she now returns the favor with light mocking of her own. Majors unleashes shoot kicks into the chest of Williams as the Aussie absorbs the damage. After a fourth kicks, Williams lets out a scream and pushes to her feet. Majors looks at Williams and hits a SUPERKICK! Kaitlin crashes to the mat and Majors hooks the leg!
ONE...!
TWO...!
Williams kicks out! Majors gives a throat slash gesture toward Kaitlin and positions herself as Williams works her way to a vertical base. CASH OUT! NO! Kaitlin shoves her away! Majors runs back and Williams catches her with a powerslam! The impact sends Majors rolling toward the ropes. Williams takes the moment to recover on the ground as Majors pulls herself to the apron. Kaitlin stands and makes her way over to the ropes and climbs through the apron to grab the two-time world champion.
Kaitlin grabs Majors from behind and looks as if she’s going to attempt a belly-to-back suplex on the apron! She lifts Majors up, but Jordan reverses back to her feet. She grabs the hold on her waist! Kaitlin tries to lift again and Majors nails her with a back elbow! Majors looks at Williams and then the ropes. She springboards over the top of Williams into a SUNSET FLIP POWERBOMB! Majors collapses to the ground on the outside and grasps at her knee immediately!
There’s a hush from the crowd as Majors lets out a blood-curdling scream of pain!
Amber Westgate: What a move from Jordan Majors!
Adam LaRue: She might have hurt herself there though. She hasn’t let go of that left knee.
Majors crawls across the ground and pulls herself up the apron before she drags herself into the ring by the bottom rope. The official kneels down to check on her and waves for the ring doctor. Williams looks on from the outside as she gets up. Majors argues with the official and the ring doctor. The official starts to stand up to turn toward the commentators, but Majors grabs him by the ankle and spins him around. She pushes herself to her feet and argues with him.
Williams sneaks under the bottom ropes and turns Majors around into TEMPEST! A TWISTING URANAGE! Kaitlin looks like she’s going to go for the pin, but she stops. Instead she grabs the left leg of Majors and slams it into the mat. Then she grabs Majors and twists her into KALAMITY! WILLIAMS LOCKS IN A CLOVERLEAF AND KNEELS ON MAJORS’ HEAD! Jordan screams out in intense pain as she reaches for the ropes and tries to claw across the mat!
Kaitlin grins and takes it in as the two-time world champion struggles beneath her! Majors’ eyes fill with intensity as she claws them closer to the ropes. She reaches out for the ropes and gets her finger tips just on that bottom rope and then wraps two fingers around it. The official steps in quickly and counts quicker than usual, prompting Williams to break the hold and get into his face. The argument grows intense as Williams accuses him of favorable treatment.
Williams shakes him off and pulls Majors to her feet. Jordan falls to a knee, but Kaitlin tugs her back up for KATASTROPHE! Majors drags the arm through the pumphandle powerbomb and rolls through it for a roll-up in!
ONE...!
TWO...!
THR-
Williams kicks out frantically and rushes to her feet. SUPERKICK! Majors catches her with another superkick and then collapses to the ground!
Amber Westgate: Jordan Majors with everything that see has!
Adam LaRue: On one leg, too! This is why she was the longest reigning World Heavyweight Champion in Zion history.
Majors pounds at the mat for Williams to stand up. Kaitlin groggily pushes herself to her feet and Jordan powers up for CASH OUT! Majors tumbles down to the mat! Her knee fails her as she goes for her patented jumping cutter and she hits the mat. Williams shakes out the cobwebs and grabs Majors into a headlock before she twists into a backbreaker! SILENT WAIL!
Jordan collapses to the ground at Kaitlin’s feet, leaned up against her legs. Williams looks out at the crowd. Kaitlin pulls her up to her feet and hits her with KATATROPHE! She plants Majors and confidently pins her for the win!
ONE...!
TWO...!
THREE-
Majors kicks out! Kaitlin is in disbelief! She shakes her head as she looks down over her opponent. She shakes her head no and her look goes from shocked to determined as she pulls Majors back up to her feet. The former champion starts to collapse, but Williams grabs her tightly for a PUMPHANDLE HALF-NELSON DRIVER! KALAMITY!
Williams drops down to her knees and hooks the leg!
ONE...!
TWO...!
THREE!
Darrion Hughes: The winner of this match, via pinfall! KAITLIN WILLIAMS!
Kaitlin grins as she looks back at her fallen foe as the ring doctor and a trainer rush into the ring to attend to Majors. “Let ‘Em Come” by Scroobius Pip plays as Williams makes her way up the ramp looking elated.
Amber Westgate: What a feeling this must be for Kaitlin Williams. All the months of back and forth leading to this moment.
Adam LaRue: And to leave Majors hurt like that? It must be the cherry on top of a wonderful dessert. She has waited since the summer to get this match. Kaitlin absolutely proved she can hang with the top talent in this company.
As Williams exits through the curtain, the officials help Majors to the ground on the outside and she puts her arms around the doctor and trainer as she limps her way up the ramp, unable to put weight on her left knee.

RESULT: PINFALL (KALAMITY)
We cut back to the ring, as “Heart vs Mind” by I Prevail begins to play, with Fusion General Manager Kai Morgan comes out of the entryway to a massive ovation, closely following him is Mayhem General Manager Katrina Lopez. The two make their way to the ring, where we see two stands with tarps over them. The two make it into the ring, with Morgan grabbing a microphone.
Kai Morgan: How’s it going, Chicago?!
Another ovation from the crowd.
Kai Morgan: Amazing to hear! This week has been one of the biggest in recent memory, as it always is on the path to Destiny! Just like Fusion: BattleBorn is tonight, Mayhem: Clarity this past Monday was a run off success! But given that show’s name, we ironically left off with some things left a lot unclear, and that’s why we’re out here tonight!
Katrina Lopez: Mr. Morgan and I have discussed this at length over the past few days and we are considering what feels like a solid solution for the tag team’s involved in Monday’s draw, and this company as a whole. But before we do anything, we’d like to invite both of the teams from Monday’s Undisputed Tag Team Championship match to join us in the ring.
Katrina and Kai turn towards the entryway expecting the teams to join them in the ring. “Rise” by Divyded interrupts the eerie silence of patience but the audience responds to the heavy metal music with thunderous responses of boos and negative slander. Storming out to the stage is Serenity Holmes followed by Livvie Nelson who tries to calm the young lady on a warpath as she storms down to the ring with intentions to let her voice be heard. Livvie enters into the ring and manages to hold Serenity back from the managerial personnel but Serenity grabs a microphone once her music comes to an end and paces back and forth.
Serenity Holmes: The only solution you need to be saying out of your mouths is that Hungry for Destruction are the new Zion Wrestling Undisputed Tag Team Champions!
The audience continues to boo even louder but Serenity shows no attention to them. She paces aggressively and Livvie is trying her best to calm her down but Serenity shoves her away getting closer to management.
Serenity Holmes: No! There is nothing else you can do other than that! We had them pinned. I pinned Hana Kaneko right there in the center of the ring despite what everyone else said and the referee raised my hand. The referee that was appointed for our championship match raised MY hand!
Serenity doesn’t show any signs of letting up on her tirade. She instead tries to calm down but with Livvie feeling her energy, Hungry for Destruction are ready to fight.
Serenity Holmes: Hungry for Destruction proved on Mayhem: Clarity that we are the best damn tag team in this division. We have beaten the past champions, the current champions and have been the most polarizing tag team to ever step foot in this company. The tag team division is alive because of us but it seems management clearly doesn’t agree because if you did, you would award us the tag team championships right now!
Hana Megumi: Mō damattero! Meiwakuna meinu. {Shut up already! Annoying bitch.}
Before even being able to be seen, Hana Megumi’s voice was heard. She was walking to the ring, surprisingly by herself without her partner Eden Sterling. Clearly not dressed to compete, but she was clearly there with purpose when she slid into the ring, the Tag Team Championship around her waist.
Hana Megumi: Mōmokuna no ka nanina no ka!? Anata wa watashi to onaji bangumi o mite imasendeshita! Watashi mo anata o motte imashita, orokamono!{Are you blind or what!? You weren't watching the same show as me, I had you too!}
Pacing around the ring for a couple seconds, finally done screaming, Hana simply looked over right to Serenity.
Serenity, on the other hand, blinked a couple of times and looked over her right shoulder to Livvie Nelson standing behind her with her arms folded across her chest. Nelson shakes her head and Serenity turns back to look at Hana Megumi but she rolls her eyes and lifts the microphone to speak.
Serenity Holmes: I don’t know what you said but I have something to say to you. I pinned you not once but twice. I pinned you in a singles match and I pinned you to become the tag team champion. That title-
She points to the championship belt around Hana’s waist.
Serenity Holmes: -belongs to us. Better yet, that championship belt should be around my waist but of course, Hungry for Destruction gets screwed out of another championship opportunity. Whether it’s when we faced Rising Star Boulevard or on Clarity, you two always seem to manage to get away when we are fingertips away from becoming tag team champions!
Serenity takes a moment to relax. The emotional distress from the frustration wasn’t helping but she looked at Livvie who consoled before speaking back into Hana’s face.
Serenity Holmes: And you must be pretty stupid to come to this ring alone because the last time we faced, I stomped your face into the mat. Hana, you have no idea how pissed off I am that I am standing here after I pinned you twice and you’re still wearing that championship belt so whether in English or Japanese, understand that if it’s third, fourth, fifth or a hundredth time, the result will be the same, Hungry for Destruction will always beat you!
Hana lets out an exasperated sigh, frustrated because she's clearly not getting through to Serenity. She speaks slow and precise English to her.
Hana Megumi: Your shoulders were down too.
Serenity and Livvie don't let that phase them, rolling their eyes as they go back to yelling at management to make things right.
Eden Sterling: She's not wrong, you know.
And with that, we see Eden Sterling walking to the ring in her gear, herself ready for in ring action as she has her match later in the night, carrying a microphone in one hand and her tag title in the other.
Eden Sterling: You two can bluster until you are blue in the face, but it won't change the fact that YOUR shoulders were down too.
Eden slides into the ring, towering over the other women in the ring, quite clearly agitated at the whole ordeal.
Eden Sterling: And I'm sure you don't realize this because you two only care about what's directly in your faces, but in the event of a draw, the champions retain. It's really as simple as that. It's called the champion’s advantage for a reason. Huff and puff all you want, but the fact of the matter is you have zero claim here because SHE
Eden points directly at Serenity, staring daggers at her.
Eden Sterling: Failed to get her shoulder up as well. I'll admit, you almost had us, but you made that one fatal mistake and it cost you. So do this for once in your lives and just shut the hell up. The grown ups are talking.
Kai Morgan: Alright, alright! Enough!
Kai, who’s been getting increasingly impatient through this entire exchange, cuts in.
Kai Morgan: I have heard enough. Let’s just get on with the verdict.
Kai then turns to Hana and Eden, extending his hand.
Kai Morgan: Hana. Eden. I need you two to hand over those belts now.
Katrina Lopez: Yes, ladies. Please hand over your championships.
Eden and Hana look at each other and the titles in their hands before they start to reluctantly hand them over to the Mayhem general manager. Livvie begins laughing behind Serenity before she leans down and whispers in her ear. Livvie and Serenity smile as they walk toward Katrina expecting the belts to be handed over to them. Kai cuts them off and tilts his head.
Kai Morgan: I’m sorry… did you think these titles were going to be awarded to… you?
There’s a loud ‘ohhh’ reaction from the crowd. Livvie looks shocked and Serenity looks like she’s about to come unglued.
Kai Morgan: Nothing has changed about Monday’s result. The referee called it a draw. And both Ms. Lopez and I agree that the decision is final. But it did open the two of us up to a bigger discussion. And that’s why we decided to make a pretty big change.
Katrina stands between the tarp covered tables with the tag belts on her shoulders as Kai walks over to one of the tables.
 | |
Kai Morgan: As of this moment, Senshi No Akuma are still champions. Going forward, they will have a new look.
Kai pulls a tarp off his table to reveal two new belts. Eden and Hana react accordingly as they walk forward and examine the belts on the uncovered table.
Kai Morgan: Senshi No Akuma is now the World Tag Team Champions. Going forward, these belts will be defended on Friday nights as part of Fusion. Which means…
Katrina Lopez: Which means Mayhem will have it’s own tag team champions as well.
Hungry For Destruction is instantly elated. Livvie grabs Serenity from behind and they jump up and down. Katrina holds up a hand as she shrugs the former belts off and allows them to fall to her feet.
Katrina Lopez: Hold on ladies. Hold on. You are not being awarded with the championships tonight. But…
Katrina pulls the tarp off of her table as Senshi No Akuma ruthlessly mock Hungry For Destruction. Kai steps in to stop any potential issue as Livvie and Serenity change their glance to the new titles.
 | |
Katrina Lopez: At Destiny, we will crown the inaugural Global Tag Team Championships. And Hungry For Destruction will have the opportunity to earn the right to fight for these very belts at that event.
That gets another sour reaction from Serenity and Livvie for the moment, but Katrina again holds up a hand.
Katrina Lopez: Now, I’ve still got time to think about exactly how these belts will be fought over at that event. Mr. Morgan has given me the time to do just that. I will be announcing more details very soon.
Serenity interrupts Katrina with a loud outburst.
Serenity Holmes: ”Earn the right?” What the hell do you mean EARN? No, we EARNED our right months ago when we defeated Rising Star Boulevard! We EARNED our right when I pinned Hana’s shoulders to the mat and the only reason they are tag team champions is because another referee who was too nosy said otherwise?!
She’s about to blow a gasket and yells finally breaking into a tantrum.
Serenity Holmes: THIS IS BULLSHIT! THIS IS CRAP! WE WIN AND WIN AND WIN AND WE GET SCREWED OVER! THEY LOST, THEY REMAIN THE CHAMPIONS! WE WIN AND WE HAVE TO START FROM SCRATCH AGAIN! THIS IS TRASH AND YOU KNOW I’M RIGHT!!!
Katrina makes a throat slashing gesture and Serenity’s mic cuts off. She laughs and looks at Kai.
Katrina Lopez:Don’t make me change my mind on you and your partner. Ok? You’ll hear from me soon. Until then, thank you to this amazing audience and we can’t wait to see these titles fought for at Destiny!
“Heart vs. Mind” plays as Kai and Katrina walk past both teams and Katrina and Serenity share a small stare down as the general managers leave the ring and leave the teams in their state, the tag champs staring at their belts and Hungry for Destruction turning their attention to the tag belts they now have to earn a chance to fight for.
==========[COMMERCIAL BREAK]==========
==========[COMMERCIAL BREAK]==========
Backstage the relative quiet is disturbed by a loud clang followed by a loud crashing sound. The cameras catch up to find none other than “The Woman Scorned” Kimberly Williams. The unsanctioned ZION Hardcore Champion is standing over a young man in a Pizza Hut delivery outfit. The delivery guy is lying in a rubble of broken tables and a dented chair is next to him.
Kimberly Williams: That’s what you get for trying to steal my property!
And then suddenly Mayhem superstar Aubrianna Powers steps into view. The blonde looks genuinely shocked.
Aubrianna Powers: What in the hell did you do?!
Kimberly Williams: Oh him? That’s Ricky. He claimed to be a Pizza delivery guy but I don’t believe him. I think he was trying to beat me for my Hardcore title. I defend it 24/7 don’t ya know!
Aubrianna Powers: How the hell do you know that he wanted your stupid make believe title?
Kimberly Williams: First it’s not make believe. Second, he tried to give me pineapple pizza. Who the hell eats pineapple pizza?! He obviously was up to no good! Also the fact that he jumped me from behind and punched me and kicked me was a good sign too.
Aubrianna Powers: Kim. You’re crazy. No one wants that title…and pineapple pizza is fine…
Kim turns and glares at Powers.
Kimberly Williams: You like pineapple pizza?!
Aubrianna Powers: No…I mean yes…I mean…
Kim decks Aubrey with a violent swing from the deadly penguin named Wasley. Kim pulls her back up and body slams her through another nearby table. Kim smirks.
Kimberly Williams: And stiiiiiiiiiil champion! Kimmmmmy!
? ? ?: Alright, alright! What’s going on here?!
The camera then swings around to see a bearded man in a suit. It’s The Disciplinarian, the head of HR for Zion Wrestling.
The Disciplinarian: Ms. Williams, I’ve been getting countless complaints about your behavior backstage. How you keep wrecking every venue we come to with your “open challenges”. You’re creating an unsafe work environment!
Kimberly Williams: I don’t know what you mean.
With perfect comedic timing, the legs to one of the broken tables give out, causing a chunk of the tabletop to slam to the floor with a thud.
The Disciplinarian: Ms. Williams, are you aware that you’re not officially recognized as Hardcore Champion? That belt has been considered retired for months. It’s considered Zion property. So I need you to hand it over, and stop with these nonsensical backstage antics.
Kimberly Williams: Over my dead body!
Kim scrambles to look around, before retrieving one of the pizza boxes off the ground and throwing the contents in The Disciplinarian’s face. He’s covered in cheese, sauce, and pineapples, leaving the opening for Kim to run off. The head of HR is left fuming as he mutters to him.
The Disciplinarian: That was my pizza…
Darrion Hughes: Ladies and gentlemen, the following match is scheduled for one fall!
Crowd: ONE FALL!
“Unforgettable (Latin Mix)” by French Montana begins to blast across the speakers. As it does Sofia makes her way through the curtains to the loud sounds of boos. She isn't alone as her husband Brayden walks out as well. Brayden is waving a Columbian flag proudly for his wife as she begins to twerk and dance to the music.
Darrion Hughes: Making her way to the ring from Bogota, Columbia…now residing in Detroit Michigan. Being accompanied to the ring by Brayden Hilton…
Sofia stops in the aisle and continues to shake her ass before she runs her hands through her hair and winks at the camera. She receives cat calls from the crowd but she blows them off walking her way to the ring. Brayden however does a marathon around the ring waving that Columbia flag as if he won the Olympics for that country. Sofia slowly enters the ring cracking a wicked grin as she waits patiently for the match to start. Brayden stands at ringside waiting for an opportunity to get
Darrion Hughes: She is “La Coneja”...Sofia Hilton!
The lights dim as the Shieldmaidens motto “Hell is empty and the Maidens are here!” comes over the Tron. The Hall Effect's "Gin & Tonic" plays as Ravenna "Cuervo" Rojas makes her way to the ring in full club colors, ready to rumble.
Darrion Hughes: And her opponent…originating from Bogotá, Colombia, now residing in San Clemente, California. She is…Ravenna “Cuervo” Rojas!!!
The bell sounded, and Ravenna wasted no time in going after Sofia. There was a fire in her eyes that showed she was beyond ready for this match after everything that had happened between the two of them. Sofia dodged Ravenna and dropped her with a drop toe hold, getting back to her feet quickly. Sofia began yelling at Ravenna to get up and bring it on, smirking at the other woman as she got to her feet. Once Rojas was up, Hilton ran towards her, hitting her with a running hurricanrana! Sofia jumped up to her feet, another smirk on her face as she looked at the downed woman. She began showing off to the crowd with Teddy on the outside clapping and cheering her on.
Amber Westgate: Sofia showing her agility early on tonight, and that could be what keeps the match in her favor.
Adam LaRue: That may be true, but never underestimate sheer determination to get revenge. It can be a useful tool too.
Ravenna pulled herself back up, glaring at Sofia as she did. She ran at the woman and nailed her with a running forearm strike straight to back since Hilton was in the middle of showboating. Sofia stumbled forward, caught off-guard by the sudden impact. As she turned around to face Ravenna, she was met with a hard right straight to the jaw! She let out a yelp as she gripped her jaw, looking at Rojas in shock. The shock only lasted for a few moments, however, as Ravenna nailed her with Cabacera out of nowhere! Sofia stumbled back towards the ropes, holding her nose as Teddy yelled at Ravenna to back off. Rojas began stalking Hilton, but she quickly dropped down and rolled out of the ring, shaking her head no at the other woman.
Crowd: KICK HER ASS! KICK HER ASS! KICK HER ASS!
Ravenna watched Sofia for a second before shaking her head. She quickly climbed the turnbuckle and leapt off, looking for a moonsault on the unsuspecting Sofia. Luckily for Hilton, Teddy was paying attention and quickly shoved her out of the way, taking some of the impact for himself! Before Rojas could get back to her feet, Sofia pulled her up and threw her into the barricade. She ran at her, nailing her with a dropkick that slammed her back into the barricade again. She went for a snap suplex, but Ravenna countered it with a few elbows into Sofia’s abdomen. The women didn’t seem to realize the referee had begun their count while they were battling it out.
ONE…
TWO…
THREE…
FOUR…
Ravenna grabbed Sofia by the wrist and flung her towards the ringpost, but Hilton was able to get her hands out just before she hit it! It was clear that Rojas wanted to inflict as much pain as she could to the other woman for what had been going on. When Ravenna went after Sofia again, she was caught with another drop toehold, this time onto the ring apron! Sofia was finally able to hit Ravenna with a snap suplex, slamming her against the ringside floor ferociously. All through this, the referee had continued his count, and Teddy began yelling at Sofia to get back into the ring. She quickly looked between Rojas, who was stirring, and the ring before sliding back in.
SEVEN…
EIGHT…
NINE…
Rojas was back on her feet and quickly slid back into the ring, but she was a split second too late!
TEN…!!!
Ravenna smacked the mat as the bell sounded, frustration clear on her face.
Darrion Hughes: Ladies and gentlemen…here is your winner by count-out…SOFIA HILTON!!!!
Amber Westgate: Love it or hate it, you’ve gotta accept it! Sofia Hilton snuck away with the win here!
Adam LaRue: I’m sure we can easily tell which side of that argument Ravenna Rojas falls on!
Hilton gets away from the ring before Rojas can catch up to her, laughing up the ramp as we fade!

RESULT: COUNT OUT
Very near the gorilla position the camera finds Zion Wrestling’s Viral Champion Gianna Rojas as she seems to be giving herself a pre-match pep talk. But instead, as it approaches it's clear that this is a small prayer. She finishes by crossing herself, a winsome little smile coming to her lips as she then turns and acknowledges the camera. She's wearing a beautiful gold set of gear with a long sweeping cape-like jacket over that, her beloved Viral Championship belt snug around her waist.
However it takes her a moment before she actually speaks, considering her words carefully perhaps? It's impossible to say although her usual bright smile is firmly in place when she does.
Gianna Rojas: Respeto a Nadia Allen. Lo digo sin dudarlo. Trabajan duro, pueden caer pero siempre, siempre se levantan, listos para una nueva pelea.
There is a gravity to her words, lacking some of the cheek that she sometimes displays. As if she knows that facing someone she now consider someone of a friend holds a little more weight. It also has not escaped her that Nadia defeated someone that she herself had been unable to. At least not yet.
Gianna Rojas: Algunos mirarían cuántas defensas he tenido durante el año y además he sido Campeón Viral y sentirían que no había nada de qué preocuparse. Les digo: ¡nunca subestimen el día! Podría ser mi día como suele ser, ¡pero podría ser el día de Nadia! Pronto veremos cuál.
Gianna nods firmly then as if she is making a true promise, a breath taken and released before she continues.
Gianna Rojas: Pase lo que pase, ustedes, fanáticos de Zion, sacarán lo mejor de mí, como siempre les doy. Nos vemos muy pronto! ¡Rápido!
Now comes that higher energy she's known for, dancing in place before she hears her music start and heads out through the heavy velvet curtains to the stage.
Gianna Rojas: Estamos en una misión de Dios.
The house lights dim after her musical voice floats over the PA system, and the opening strains of her theme, Paper Planes by SSSC begin to play. Suddenly, lights begin to chase around the edge of the stage and in pulses start heading down the ramp at the sides, retreating and advancing but never quite getting all the way down to the bottom of the ramp at least not yet. The colors are of course green white and red proudly representing Mexican heritage, and it is at this moment the Zion Wrestling Viral Champion Gianna Rojas appears on stage.
I fly like paper, get high like planes
If you catch me at the border, I got warrants in my name
If you come around here, we workin' all day
Your life gon' pass you in a second if you wait
She moves out to the middle of the stage and holds her arms out as if to embrace all of the fans, spinning in place and bouncing before she begins to take steps down the ramp, the lights pacing her now. Overhead a disco ball drops and a spotlight hits it to send dots of light all over the same crowd.
Just like Jesse James when I'm sittin' on trains
Every step we get, see we're clockin' that game
Dog food for dinner, the world is in flames
Bonafide hustlers making that change
A wide grin appears on her lips as she begins to skip the last few feet of the ramp and then makes her way around the ring slapping hands and smiling, even stopping for a moment to pose for a selfie with a couple of children who are up against the barricade. She then slowly climbs the ring steps and slides into the ring after wiping her boots off on the apron.
All they wanna do is
And a
And take your money
All they wanna do is
And a
And take your money
Now in the ring she unhooks her belt from around her waist holding it up in the air and turning it so that every side of the ring gets a chance to view her with it before she politely hands it over to the referee and steps back towards an empty corner waiting for the match to begin as the cheering and music begin to die down at the same time.
A camera pans open backstage to a hallway, where Nadia Allen is currently resting her head on the brick wall. The crowd cheers. She's dressed in her full gear gear along with the black and magenta leather jacket. Without warning, a guttural roar escapes Nadia's mouth as she slaps the wall fiercely. She lifts up her head with her eyes growing narrowed. Nadia's face was tightened. Soon, she begins her march through the hall. Staff members are passed by. Nadia's eyes remain straight ahead; widening by the second. Passing through the interview area, Nadia storms towards the gorilla position; the lights dimmed.
Coming to a halt, Nadia starts to bounce back and forth. From there, she takes a deep breathe, then exhales. She then prowls a bit, walking in circles as she's inches away from the curtain. Nadia continues to past before "Underground" is hear blaring through the PA system. Another roar from the crowd. Nadia comes to a complete stop, leaning down and running a head through her hair. Nodding, she picks her head up and pushes through the curtain.
I try and get some love from up high
There just ain't enough to go around
The guitar and drums ring out and smoke fills up on the ramp. A figure appears like a silhouette in the smoke and out of it is Nadia Allen. Wearing a black leather hoodie, with a black mouthpiece dangling from her mouth. Nadia turns to her left and right, facing the crowd, before she starts her stroll down the ramp.
Nadia walks purposefully down the ring, occasionally knuckle pounding a few fans in the front row. She turns to each fan as they cheer her as she nods. She circles around the ring, slowly. When she reaches the steel steps, she stretches a bit with her eyes on the ring. Sprinting up the steps, she turns to the crowd. She glares at them, lowering her hood of her jacket and looks around the crowd.
Nadia lets out a yell and balls up her fist as the crowd roars. She then enters the ring, galloping a bit. Eventually, she slips out of her jacket, revealing the QoC armband on her right arm. She hands it the ringside assistant outside. She puts in her mouth guard before sitting on the second turnbuckle with a tightened expression.
The lights in the arena go out, with only two spotlights illuminating over the champion and her challenger.
Darrion Hughes: Introducing first, the challenger…representing The Queens of Chaos…from San Francisco, California…weighing in at 120 lbs…Nadia! Allen!
And her opponent…from Eureka, California…weighing in at 145 lbs…she is the Zion Wrestling VIRAL! CHAMPION!...GIANNA! ROJAS!
Amber Westgate: 393 days! That’s how long Gianna Rojas’ reign as Viral Champion has been! No one in the history of Zion Wrestling has even seen any longer than 300 days, and she’s now on the cusp of 400!
Adam LaRue: Yeah, but to me, the length of the reign doesn’t matter. The real story here is the amount of time she’s defended it. Over a year on top of this division, and Gianna Rojas is now walking into her 19th defense of the title!
Amber Westgate: But Nadia Allen is determined as ever to make sure it’s her last one! This may be the biggest challenge she’s had to date!
Things start off slow between these two, as their technical prowess is on high display here! They go for a Collar-and-Elbow Tie Up, with Rojas getting the upper hand early with a Side Headlock! Allen is able to escape however, slipping her head out of Rojas’ grip and cinching in a Waistlock instead! Rojas isn’t one to let up however, grabbing Allen’s hands and prying them apart before dropping to the mat and rolling her up with a Victory Roll Pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
Allen rolls the pin over, getting Rojas’ shoulders to the mat instead!
ONE…!
TWO…!
Kick out by Rojas! The two get to their feet, with Rojas rushing towards Allen to keep momentum on her side! But Allen reverses, taking Rojas straight to the mat with a Side Headlock Takeover! She keeps the hold locked on whilst on the mat, with Rojas getting her legs up to attempt a Headscissor to escape! But Allen catches this, freeing an arm up to grab the leg to that it doesn’t go around her head! But in doing so, she opens up another opportunity for Rojas to escape, as she grapevines her legs around Allen’s arm and pulls her down for a Crucifix Pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
Kick out by Allen! Rojas is right back on her, immediately getting Rear Chinlock on her before she has a chance to get up! Allen is in trouble now, with Rojas driving all the energy out of her! Allen doesn’t stay in this position for long however, pulling herself up to her feet and driving repeated Elbows into the champion’s sternum before driving her to the mat with a Snapmare! Allen takes a moment to catch her breath, with Rojas getting to her feet and immediately getting back after her! Allen sidesteps whatever she was attempting, but Rojas only continues to use this to her advantage, jumping to the second rope and coming down on the challenger with a Springboard Crossbody! But Allen rolls through, getting to her feet with Rojas in her arms! She pops her up on her shoulders in a Fireman’s Carry position, but before she can have it add up to anything, Rojas dismounts her shoulders, pushing her into the ropes from behind and pulling her back in for an O’Connor Roll Pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
Kick out by Allen again! Rojas keeps trying however, getting Allen in position before attempting a La Magistral Pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
THR-
Kick out by Allen! The two make it to their feet at once, with Rojas looking to put an end to this as she nails Allen with a boot to the gut! She gets her in position, looking for an X-Plex! But Allen reverses, landing on her feet behind Rojas before connecting with a Neckbreaker! She rolls through, getting Rojas to her feet and lifting her up in a Suplex position! Instead of going all the way through with it however, she drops her down, nailing her right in the face with a Knee Lift! Rojas seems on track to falling to the mat, but Allen pulls her back in, dropping her with a Short-Arm Lariat! Pin by Allen!
ONE…!
TWO…!
TH-
Kick out by Rojas! Allen sits beside Rojas, almost as if she’s thinking about what to do to put an end to this one! She pulls herself up to her feet, before pulling Rojas up as well! She looks to position her for her signature Scoop Brainbuster! But Rojas fights back, driving repeated Elbows into Allen’s shoulder to get her to back off! Allen tries to recover a bit, only to be caught with a Shotgun Knee Strike! Gianna nails her signature! She goes for the pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
THREE-
Kick out by Allen! She gets the shoulder up! Rojas is exhausted by this point, thinking that was surely the end of it! She begins to pull Allen to her feet, looking for Terminar Rápida! But Allen fights back now, turning things around to pull off a Franksteiner as Rojas lifts her up! She catches Rojas with the Rana Pin!
ONE…!

Allen isn’t finished however, pulling Rojas to her feet and dropping her with the Death-Plex! Regal Plex connects! Allen comes back in a huge way, leaping onto Rojas for the pin!
ONE…!

She gets Allen in position now, dropping her with Terminar Rápida! Sitout Double Underhook Powerbomb connects! Rojas stays on her for the pin!

Amber Westgate: Oh I knew it! I just knew she wouldn’t let it go!
Adam LaRue: Why should she, Amber?! Nadia Allen cost Maki Megumi the Queen of Strong Style Championship! Now she’s here to cost her the Viral Championship!
Allen looks outside at the ring at Megumi, immediately turning red as she rushes out and attempts to combat her! But Megumi came prepared, immediately striking her in the midsection with a lead pipe before driving the metal into her back! She throws her back into the ring, getting her in position before nailing her with a Skull Brasher! She pulls Rojas on top of Allen, before exiting the ring again and throwing the referee back inside so that they can make the count!

Darrion Hughes: The winner of this match…and STILL the Zion Wrestling VIRAL! CHAMPION!...GIANNA! ROJAS!
Amber Westgate: Well, despite the shenanigans that led up to it, Rojas has done it! She’s retained her title!
Adam LaRue: I don’t even think she knows how she did it, or how much of her victory she now owes to Maki Megumi! But regardless, she got the job done tonight!
Rojas hazily gets back to her feet, with the title being awarded to her! Meanwhile, Maki Megumi escapes through the crowd, smiling as she makes her exit!
Darrion Hughes: Introducing first, the challenger…representing The Queens of Chaos…from San Francisco, California…weighing in at 120 lbs…Nadia! Allen!
And her opponent…from Eureka, California…weighing in at 145 lbs…she is the Zion Wrestling VIRAL! CHAMPION!...GIANNA! ROJAS!
Amber Westgate: 393 days! That’s how long Gianna Rojas’ reign as Viral Champion has been! No one in the history of Zion Wrestling has even seen any longer than 300 days, and she’s now on the cusp of 400!
Adam LaRue: Yeah, but to me, the length of the reign doesn’t matter. The real story here is the amount of time she’s defended it. Over a year on top of this division, and Gianna Rojas is now walking into her 19th defense of the title!
Amber Westgate: But Nadia Allen is determined as ever to make sure it’s her last one! This may be the biggest challenge she’s had to date!
Things start off slow between these two, as their technical prowess is on high display here! They go for a Collar-and-Elbow Tie Up, with Rojas getting the upper hand early with a Side Headlock! Allen is able to escape however, slipping her head out of Rojas’ grip and cinching in a Waistlock instead!

She keeps the hold locked on whilst on the mat, with Rojas getting her legs up to attempt a Headscissor to escape! But Allen catches this, freeing an arm up to grab the leg to that it doesn’t go around her head! But in doing so, she opens up another opportunity for Rojas to escape, as she grapevines her legs around Allen’s arm and pulls her down for a Crucifix Pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
Kick out by Allen! Rojas is right back on her, immediately getting Rear Chinlock on her before she has a chance to get up! Allen is in trouble now, with Rojas driving all the energy out of her! Allen doesn’t stay in this position for long however, pulling herself up to her feet and driving repeated Elbows into the champion’s sternum before driving her to the mat with a Snapmare! Allen takes a moment to catch her breath, with Rojas getting to her feet and immediately getting back after her! Allen sidesteps whatever she was attempting, but Rojas only continues to use this to her advantage, jumping to the second rope and coming down on the challenger with a Springboard Crossbody! But Allen rolls through, getting to her feet with Rojas in her arms!

RESULT: PINFALL (INTERFERENCE)
The lightning cracks in the room as a broken throne stands there. Ruslan and Kaya are standing over it, Kaya lifts her hand and Vines begin to constrict it. She laughed as she looked over at Ruslan.
Ruslan Lucic: Ever since she had left the queens of Chaos in December, Kaya has only grown more powerful. In the first match after the break she took the Gateway Championship, and has defended it on every turn against every queen and every challenger that has stepped into her way. Even with help on the one match, she still holds it. The time is drawing near, the 90 day limit is coming. So what do you do?
Kaya then lets the chair go, picking up one piece, handing it to Ruslan without showing the name on it. She then turns to the camera. She laughed loudly, looking at the cameraman standing by.
”the Poisoned Rose” Kaya Parker: Every turn, I've heard oh she's not good enough, she isn't ready. She really isn't a true friend. I've shown over the last three months that I've been ready for everything that has been thrown at me. It'll be time to make a decision soon, and I've left fate up to decide that. The rock that was picked up has the name of the champion. And next week I'll be cashing it in for whoever is on that rock. It's coming, can you feel the winds of change.
She cackled as she took the rock from Ruslan handing him her Gateway Championship. She turned the rock over and showed the name of Yukiko Kusanagi on it. She laughed, as she had no clue who it was.
”the Poisoned Rose” Kaya Parker: The fates have spoken and next week Yuki, you and I will meet for the Queen of Strong Style Championship. Fitting, because another queen had to rise for one to fall. The Poison Queen is rising, and next week you and I close the book on this story. Then I will become the new Queen of Strong Style Champion and it will be fitting.
She cackled as she put her hand out, and a black rose was given to her. Her eyes lit up green as she whispered to it. Then said the words.
”the Poisoned Rose” Kaya Parker: Dracarys.
The rose burst into a green flame as she laughed, dropping it on the floor. The two walked off as the cameraman watched the rose continue to burn.
There was a camera looking over Daria's shoulder, as she was writing an email that she really didn't want to write. Her company was really struggling thanks to Angelica locking her accounts. She couldn't get material to make clothing, or even pay her workers because of it. You could see a tear welling up in her eye, before she slammed it shut. Daria puts her face in her hands and started to cry, feeling awful about herself. Soon walking into the view is none other than the devil herself Angelica Matthews, who has a wide smile on her face. As she soon spoke in her normal snobby tone.
ANGELICA MATTHEWS
“Well, well looks like someone choked how did I not predict that? You know we could of taken over the world together and you wouldn’t be in this spot, but you thought you could do it your way and what happened?”
Angelica said with a sneer on her face, with a hand on her hip. Daria would sob briefly, as she tried to toughen up to confront her.
Daria Dorsey
“Angelica, this has to stop. Innocent people are going to lose their jobs… This whole thing is between you and me. There's no need to drag them into this.”
She replied, trying to fight back the urge to cry as well as slug Angelica for all the grief she had been causing her. Angelica rolled her eyes as she said.
ANGELICA MATTHEWS
“ The thing is, it could of stopped a long time ago had you listened to me but no instead you tried to play hero you cost me championship gold, and now what? You are sitting here about to lose it all everything you have built up was it worth it?”
Angelica said with a bitchy scoff, as Daria shoots up to get in her face, eyes red as she was genuinely distraught.
Daria Dorsey
“Who gives a flying fuck about your title?! This is between you and me. Nobody else deserves to be dragged into this, you selfish bitch!”
Angelica rolls her eyes, disgusted at the tone from Daria.
ANGELICA MATTHEWS
“Who cares? The world cares you want to talk about selfish look at your actions. You have cost everyone around you and you don’t even care? Again, you have a year to make this right, and I suggest you start planning your next move.”
Daria would get in her face, ready to throw hands with Angelica.
Daria Dorsey
“Unlock the company account now, or I'll beat your ass right here, right now.”
She said, her sadness turning into rage, as Angelica's personal security began to intervene, while she shouted out at her while being blocked away, and dragged off camera while the camera panned to Angelica's smiling face.
Daria Dorsey
“These people can't protect you forever!”
Angelica let out a bitchy, obnixous laugh as she spoke.
ANGELICA MATTHEWS
Protect me? It seems to me I am the one winning this battle, you thought the Zion cup could protect you from your consequences. But, things are getting started, life is quite a funny thing from on top of the world to being locked out of any luck?”
The opening to "Enjoy The Silence" by Lacuna Coil begins to play over the PA system as the arena plunges into darkness. As soon as the guitar and drums kick in, a spotlight appears on the stage to find Samuel Lopez standing there wearing a Jason Voorhees mask, his manager Dr. Castiel Talbot standing beside him with his walking cane. Lopez then begins to slowly make his way down the ramp while Talbot follows.
Darrion Hughes: The following is a Lights Out Steel Cage Match!
Introducing first…being accompanied to the ring by Dr. Castiel Talbot…from Hayesville, North Carolina…weighing in at 240 lbs…Samuel! Lopez!
Once he reaches the ring, Lopez slides under the bottom rope on his front and moves his way to the center of the ring on his closed fists until he reaches the center while Talbot makes his way up the steel steps and climbs through the ropes and into the ring. Lopez then slowly stands upright while slowly removing his mask as the camera zooms in on his wide, blank stare into the camera as Talbot takes the mask from him and "Enjoy The Silence" fades out.
The lights in the arena go out as the piecing alarms of the song blare. The spotlights at the top of the ramp glow red as the music slowly begins to kick in. The lights illuminate the silhouette of a woman.
"Colossus..."
Suddenly a much larger figure steps into the light, becoming illuminated from behind as well.
"ARISE"
The heavy music kicks in as the arena lights come up again, The pair of Katie and Damian Simmons are revealed. Katie wears a devious smirk as she stares into the camera while her husband, towering over her, glares directly at the ring.
"In the image of man...
We breed our demons
On the wide wings of science...
Our abomination of a child flies"
The couple begin walking toward the ring. Damian remains focused on the ring while his wife hangs by the sides of the ramp, taunting the fans as she passes by. Fans shout things at the pair but neither seem affected by it. Damian remains transfixed on his goal and Katie just giggles and waves.
Darrion Hughes: And his opponent…being accompanied to the ring by Katie Simmons…from Sin City…weighing in at 295 lbs…Damian! Simmons!
Finally they make it to ringside. Katie walks around the side while Damian climbs up onto the ring apron and easily steps over the top rope. Katie lays on her side, taunting the fans some more while giving them a show. After a few seconds she crawls in backward on her hands and knees, meeting up with her husband in the middle of the ring where he is standing, towering over her.
"Ask me for your name, my friend
Tell me what I feel like to you
Is it coming to an end?
I don't understand it
COLOSSUS
COLOSSUS ARISE"
Katie winks into the camera before hopping to her feet. She circles around Damian and removes his vest for him while he continues to stare deep into the viewer. Finally, Damian takes to his corner and focuses on the upcoming match as his wife exits the ring. Simmons is seething in his corner, itching to start the fight.
As the cell lowers around these two behemoths, the bell rings and they just… stare at each other from opposite ends of the ring. They then begin to circle one another slowly… their gaze never leaving one another until they come charging at one another, and begin throwing absolute bombs! The two men continue to strike each other across the face with neither one seemingly beginning to slow down! The crowd continues to go buckwild for this as the men continue to lay into one another!
Lopez is able to get the upper hand, however. Striking the taller Simmons with a knife edge chop that echos throughout the arena, followed up by a vicious uppercut that snaps Damian’s head back, and Samuel follows this up by picking up Simmons, looking to hit a Fallaway slam, only for Damian to counter out of it!
Damian now picks up Samuel and just tosses him across the ring with a suplex toss! The crowd is in awe here at this display of power and strength at the colossal Damian Simmons, having never seen Samuel Lopez, who is no small man in his own right, being tossed around as if he was nothing.
Simmons wastes little time, picking up Lopez into another Belly to Belly suplex, tossing him across the ring again! Samuel gets to his feet once more only to be dropped with a German suplex that lands him on the base of his skull! The official goes to check on Sam, only for Damian to shove him aside and hook the leg!
ONE!
TWO-
KICKOUT!
A huge kickout from Samuel! But this early in the match it was expected. Damian picks him up once more and grabs Lopez around the throat, looking to hit him with a chokeslam!
BUT LOPEZ PULLS THE HAND AWAY FROM HIS THROAT!
The crowd cheer on Samuel, who is able to push the absolutely massive hand of Damian Simmons away from him before booting him in the midsection and hitting the ropes, nailing Damian with the “Silent Night”!
BUT DAMIAN DOESNT GO DOWN!
Samuel looks at him and hits a forearm, before taking off towards the ropes once more, hitting him with another “Silent Night” but Simmons doesn’t go down again! Lopez hits the ropes once more, hitting Damian with a third Silent Night that damn near takes his fucking head off and finally he drops him!
Samuel falls into the cover, and the official makes the count!
ONE!
TWO!
KICKOUT!
A kickout at two from Damian! Samuel looks at him before pulling himself up and to his feet. He hits Simmons with a knife edge chop that echoes throughout the arena once more and continues to chop the large man, slowly sending him back into the corner as Lopez continues to unload across his chest with these massive chops that leave Simmons chest red and bleeding, though this does not seem to phase Damian!
Lopez hits him with one final chop across the chest before going to the opposite corner and charging towards Simmons in the corner, nailing him with a massive running splash in the corner, and as Simmons stumbles out of the corner, Samuel is able to pick him up and drop him with a massive fallaway slam that gets the crowd fired up!
Samuel now, riding this wave of adrenaline and the high that it brings, picks up Simmons, looking to nail him with the “Hush” swinging reverse STO… BUT DAMIAN SLIPS OUT OF IT! DAMIAN IS BEHIND SAMUEL AND PICKS HIM UP, NAILING HIM WITH A REVERSE CHOKESLAM THAT SPIKES HIM FACE FIRST ONTO THE CANVAS! Simmons rolls over Lopez and hooks the legs as the official makes the count!
ONE!
TWO!
TH- KICKOUT!
Lopez throws the shoulder up last minute! Simmons is now looking to end the match for certain, picking up Samuel and putting him between his legs, looking to hit the “Sky Burial”!... But as he lifts Lopez up, Samuel is able to get out of it and slip behind Damian, spinning him around and kicking out the giant's knee… AND LOCKS IN “ENJOY THE SILENCE”!
SAMUEL HAS THIS MOVE LOCKED IN TIGHT AND SIMMONS IS FIGHTING FOR HIS LIFE RIGHT NOW, TRYING TO BREAK THIS HOLD THAT KEEPS GETTING TIGHTER AND TIGHTER WITH EACH PASSING MOMENT WITH THE TWO OF THEM ON THE CANVAS!
BUT JUST AS SIMMONS LOOKS LIKE HE’S PASSING OUT HE GETS UP TO HIS FEET, PULLING SAMUEL UP AS HE DOES AND JUST THROWS HIM ACROSS THE RING, SENDING HIM CRASHING INTO THE TURNBUCKLES!
DAMIAN NOW, HE PICKS SAMUELS UP ON HIS SHOULDERS AND POWERBOMBS HIM AGAINST THE CAGE… BUT HE DOESN’T LET GO! AND A SECOND SHOT AGAINST THE CAGE! AND A THIRD TIME!
All the powerbombs against the cage have Samuel on the ropes, and Simmons can tell! He pulls Samuel up once more… BUT HE TURNS, AND RUNS TOWARDS THE OPPOSITE CAGE WALL AND JUMPS OVER THE TOP ROPE, SENDING SAMUEL THROUGH THE CAGE WALL WITH “EVERYBODY DIES”, AND BOTH MEN CRASH TO THE FLOOR!
The crowd goes insane at this as officials rush to ringside, checking on the two men. Damian pulls himself to his feet and pushes the officials out of the way and hooks the leg of Lopez, the official that was in the ring begins to count!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!!!
Darrion Hughes: The winner of this match…Damian! Simmons!
Amber Westgate: There had to have been a million ways this match could’ve ended, and yet this still caught me by surprise!
Adam LaRue: If there was any doubt as to if Damian Simmons could hang, I think it just got erased now! What a monstrous display of power by The Colossus!
Simmons slowly makes it to his feet, with his wife raising his hand at ringside as we fade!

RESULT: PINFALL (EVERYBODY DIES)
BLAZE DARLING: Tonight is quite the night huh? I mean soooooo many good matches and soooooo little time to really enjoy it all and soak it in. It seems a little unfair to me.
Blaze sighs softly and finally sits up as she rests against the back of the couch. She’s still comfortable, yet she has a lot on her mind.
BLAZE DARLING: We’ve got one of my sisters, Jordan Majors, taking on a rival who just cannot stop messing with her, Kaitlin Williams in the opening match. I’m a little biased, but I just know Jordan can do it! There’s only one outcome for this one and it’s Jordan’s time for revenge. We also have another sister of mine, Nadia Allen, in a Viral Championship match against the current champion, Gianna Rojas. Which let’s be honest, Nadia is going to kick all the butt and totally bring home a shiny!
Blaze rests her hands atop her thighs, sliding them until they finally rest on her knees. She finds her gaze staring off into the endless distance before she remembers where she is. A sheepish little grin crossing her lips before she rubs the back of her neck sheepishly.
BLAZE DARLING: Then, we have—
Blaze lowers her voice to a mere whisper as she leans forward to truly look into the camera.
BLAZE DARLING: I can’t let my other sisters hear this, but anyway. We have my favorite sister, Jessi Ozborne, taking on Eden Sterling. Which, I’m sure Jessi is going to stick to her word and dish out the top tier punishment to Eden after everything they’ve been through. Which makes me a little anxious, but this is Jessi we are talking about. Anyway… I just wanna wish all of my sisters the best of luck tonight! … Not that they need it, but I have to show my support, obviously.
Blaze smiles and begins to stand up finally. However, the smile slowly fades and her demeanor turns into something a bit more serious.
BLAZE DARLING: The final match of the night, however, is something I will be keeping an extremely close eye on. While it would be ideal for me to face ISIS at Destiny III… I suppose I wouldn’t mind facing Madi if she happens to win. Either way, I will be facing ISIS… Or Madi, when Destiny III rolls around. Like I said, facing ISIS is ideal for me because I have much to prove against her. But, whoever wins? They better keep an eye out ‘cause I’ll be out there to give them a warm congratulations tonight.
With those final words, Blaze gives a little wave to the camera before placing her headphones atop her head and starting her music again. She’s dancing and singing as she shuffles through the backstage area in a chipper mood as the scene slowly fades.
We cut to Fusion GM Kai Morgan’s office, where we see him and Katrina Lopez still chatting after their Tag Team Championship reveal earlier in the night. Just then they get a knock at the door.
Kai Morgan: Come in!
The door swings open, and into the frame comes The Disciplinarian, his head still covered in grease and sauce stains. Katrina looks at him then back to Kai.
Katrina Lopez: Right, I’ll just leave y’all to it.
With that, Katrina hurriedly shuffled out of the room, with The Disciplinarian seemingly holding back his words until she did so.
Kai Morgan: So…how are things?
The Disciplinarian: You need to wrangle in that hooligan, Kimberly Williams, Mr. Morgan. Her little “open challenges” for that Hardcore Title are getting out of hand!
Kai Morgan: The title that ISIS threw in the trash?
The Disciplinarian: Yes! That one! Ms. Williams dug it out of the trash and now she’s using it to wreak havoc on the locker room!
Kai Morgan: Anthony…
The Disciplinarian: Don’t you call me by that name.
Kai rolls his eyes.
Kai Morgan: “Disciplinarian”…plenty of people “wreck havoc” over the roster every week, and on a much bigger scale. Mind you I’m still dealing with the legal ramifications of someone being put through a car windshield on my show.
The Disciplinarian: Right! And you don’t want any more problems. That’s why you should take that Hardcore Championship away from Kimberly Williams so that she doesn’t make things worse!
Kai gets up from his seat, putting a hand on The Disciplinarian’s shoulder. He quickly pulls it away as he realizes how much grease is on it.
Kai Morgan: I think the only person with a problem here is you. But hey, you’re the head of HR. You figure it out.
Kai then exits, leaving The Disciplinarian frustrated. He looks around, before settling his gaze on the laptop on Kai Morgan’s desk. He looks on screen, and sees the card for the next week’s Fusion on it. He begins to type on the keyboard as we fade.
The lights to the arena go out, as “Kool-Aid" by Bring Me The Horizon begins to build up over the speakers. The fans murmur with intrigue, until the song takes off and lights jump to life.
“We are the children of the devolution
The infamous martyrs, the scars on the sun
Asphyxiating with a smile on your face
While they pull your teeth out, one by one”
Darrion Hughes: The following contest…is scheduled for one fall!
Crowd: ONE FALL!!
Darrion Hughes: Introducing first…representing The Queens of Chaos…from Montreal, Quebec, Canada…weighing in at 121 lbs…Jessi! Ozborne!
Just then, Jessi Ozborne steps out from the entryway, stopping at the center of the stage. She tilts her sunglasses, surveying the crowd in front of her before raising up a “Too Sweet” to a mountain of cheers. Ozborne steps down the ramp as the music continues to blare behind her, mouthing along to all the words as she hands out high fives and “Too Sweets” to the fans in the front row. She makes it to the ring, stepping up the ring steps and to the top rope, and throwing up the “Too Sweet” as the chorus goes off.
” 'Cause you got a taste now, drank the Kool-Aid by the jug
So suffer your fate, oh, come here and give me a hug
Nobody loves you like I love you, oh, my dear
But you should've known that this was gonna end in tears”
Jessi dismounts into the ring off those words, side-stepping around the ring until she finally brings herself to stand still! She quickly steps up to the second rope, throwing up the QoC’s “Too Sweet” gesture as she does. She backs up into the corner, getting ready for the match as the music fades.
"Killer Queen" begins as the lights lower. Two strobe lights flash on the stage area, alternating between red and white. Slowly, Eden Sterling walks out onto the stage. She gazes over the crowd with a smug smirk on her face as she readjusts her wrist gauntlets. She flips back the hood to her best and lets out an almost banshee-like scream before walking calmly to the ring.
Darrion Hughes: And her opponent…representing The Genesis of Destruction…from Austin, Texas…weighing in at 170 lbs…she is one-half of the Zion Wrestling World Tag Team Champions…Eden! Sterling!
As the bell rings Jessi wastes little time, letting out her anger and frustrations as she just charges Eden, nailing her with a flurry of strikes and kicks that push the taller of the two back into the corner before Eden powers Jessi away from her, sending Jessi rolling backwards and ass Jessi gets back to her feet instantly she continues bombarding Sterling with these clubbing blows, fighting like a bat outta hell!
Eden pushes Jessi away again who just counters it, hitting her with a rising knee strike in the corner, followed up with a running bulldog! Eden rolls out of the ring while Jessi gets the crowd fired up! She goes towards the side of the ring where Eden rolled out and goes for a slingshot crossbody, only for Eden to catch her out of midair and slam her down as hard as she can on the floor with a bodyslam! Jessi cries out in pain as Eden catches her bearings some more.
Eden then picks up Jessi, throwing her back into the ring and continuing to focus on the back of Ozborne, dropping a knee to her lower back, before picking Jessi up into a sidewalk slam position, dropping Jessi with backbreaker after backbreaker, before finally pulling Jessi to her feet and hitting her with a nasty STO, hooking the leg after she does!
ONE!
TWO!
KICKOUT!
Jessi throws her shoulder up at two! Eden wastes little time, picking up Jessi up in a vertical suplex position, walking around the ring with her! Just as she goes to drop Jessi with the suplex, Jessi falls behind her and hits a nasty hooking superkick that drops Eden to a knee! Jessi pulls her to her feet and looks for a brainbuster, but the damage done to her back proves too much, with Eden being the one who drops Jessi with a brainbuster!
Eden continues to mount more offense against Jessi, picking her up and onto her shoulders, looking to put the nail in the coffin, looking for the “Killer Instinct”... BUT JESSI SLIPS OUT OF IT!
Eden turns around and Jessi fucking BLASTS her with a roundhouse kick to the side of the head that not only stuns, but rocks Eden to her very core. Jessi now, running off the cheers of the crowd, runs towards the ropes leaping up and hitting Eden with the Star Destroyer! The Springboard Cutter drops Eden, but she gets up and stumbles back into the corner. Jessi is feeling the pain in her back, holding it for a moment before she charges in towards Sterling, leaping and nailing her with the Human Hand Grenade!
Jessi now, having nailed Sterling with two of her best shots looks to put the final nail in the coffin, BUT OUT COMES HANA! Hana hops up on the ring apron and takes a swipe at Ozborne, who ducks out of the way and nails her, sending her off the apron and crashing to the ringside mats… and as Jessi turns around SHE GETS HIT BY A DISCUS LARIAT FROM EDEN THAT SENDS HER INSIDE OUT!
Eden now wastes little time as she hits the ropes before nailing Jessi in the side of the head with the Instant Peril before falling into the cover!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!!!
Darrion Hughes: The winner of this match…Eden! Sterling!
Amber Westgate: Ozborne gave it her all, but it wasn’t enough, especially when the G.O.D. are afoot!
Adam LaRue: And honestly? That’s on her! Absolutely foolish decision to try and go on this “revenge mission” on her own! She should’ve known better!
Amber Westgate: Yeah, well it looks like these two are looking to dispense that lesson to her right now!
Sterling celebrates with Megumi by her side, with Ozborne trying to get up so she can fight back again! This ends up making things worse for her, as Sterling and Megumi begin to stomp repeatedly on Ozborne! The two continue to attack her two on one, with even her best attempts at fighting back being met with even more brutality! The two of them set Ozborne up, looking to drive her down with the Never Wake Up!
Amber Westgate: Jordan Majors is coming out to Ozborne’s defense, but it might be too little too late!
Adam LaRue: Too little is right, Amber! Look at her! She looks like a baby deer learning to walk at this point!
Majors limps her way down to the ring, a steel chair in hand as she slides in and swings at the two! She manages to crack Sterling on the back with the steel, causing her to roll out of the ring! Megumi is able to get the best of her however, kicking out her damaged knee to stop her attack! Megumi looks ready to end this, only for Ozborne to nail her with a Superkick that sends her out of the ring!
Megumi and Sterling retreat over the barricade, with Ozborne and Majors standing the ring alone together. The first time they’d even been seen in a ring together since Madness. Ozborne gives Majors a menacing glare, not unlike the ones she’s been giving her adversaries. Majors reaches out for a handshake, but Ozborne refuses it, shoving past Majors and climbing out of the ring!
Amber Westgate: Oh come on!
Adam LaRue: Old wounds take a while to heal, it seems! If I were Ozborne, I wouldn’t think this is enough to earn forgiveness either!
Ozborne goes up the rampway, leaving Majors alone as she faces away from her. Just like their confrontation from months ago, the two former best friends are left facing away from each other on opposite sides of the arena.
Ozborne pivots however, turning towards the ring and coming towards it with that same scowl on her face. She climbs inside the ring, rushing towards Majors and turning around…
…
…
…
…
…before giving her a hug.
Amber Westgate: YES!!!
Jessi grabs on tightly to Majors, catching her by surprise as she doesn’t know what to do. Eventually, she returns the favor, hugging Ozborne back. The crowd are in a frenzy now as they see the two finally reunited! The two turn to Sterling and Megumi in the crowd, before throwing up the “Too Sweet” gesture together!
Adam LaRue: These are back together, and that may just spell trouble for the World Tag Team Champions!
Amber Westgate: The message is loud and clear, these two may have just gotten more than what they bargained for!
Megumi and Sterling continue to trash talk the duo as we fade!

RESULT: PINFALL (INSTANT PERIL)
As the crowd roars to life with the ending of the match and Eden’s victory, the giant screen fades into view as a camera catches all the action from an unexpected angle. High up in the nosebleeds, peering out over a bald head. A familiar set of black glaves clap in front of the camera.
Disguised voice: Wonderful. Truely marvelous. This is exactly what I was expecting in Zion. The twist, the turns, the cooperation. Jessie Osbourne. It should be no small matter to actually get past you. The skill and ruthlessness in you is on par as usual.
The fans around the camera starting to come to a realization of where the view is from and they start looking behind them to try and find it. Some of them waving to try and find themselves on screen.
Disguised voice: But let's not forget our victor tonight. Eden Sterling. Tall, Smart, and Confident. Everything you would want in a champion. Adn what little you don’t have is brought by your partner, the Flowerblade.
One fan manages to figure out where the camera is and looks astonished.
Man in the audience: Hey, aren;t you…
The black glove produces a Window Call ticket, thumb over the name blocks out everything except for the last three letters. ‘Ima’
Disguised voice: ”Just a member of the audience tonight. Enjoying my work. But don’t worry. I’ll let everyone see my face soon.”
A black glove comes up and turns off the body cam.
==========[COMMERCIAL BREAK]==========
==========[COMMERCIAL BREAK]==========
We come back from commercial break and we see Diamond Steele inside of a ring. She has a huge picture of Razzles Mars along with a casket.
Diamond Steele: Tonight we are here because it is the funeral of Razzles Mars. She at one time might have been a legit talent but lately she doesn’t have the heart to be in this company. She isn’t who all of you think she is. So tonight I will proudly read her Eulogy!
Adam LaRue: I had no idea that Razzles Mars even died!
Amber Westgate: You know damn well what’s going on here, Adam. Stop it!
The crowd begins to boo as Diamond smirks.
Diamond Steele: Razzles was a good friend…. She was good in that she always cried like a little Botch. She left all of you. She lost to Kara and has not been seen since. She was weak in the rumble and it was up to me to be the real star. Tonight I close that chapter behind me.
Diamond walks over to the casket and she shakes her head as she throws a set of flowers on top of the casket.
Diamond Steele: May we finally move on. I will miss you friend the same way I will proudly move on beyond the Queens of Chaos.
With that Diamond places her hand on the casket and it suddenly swings open, revealing that Razzles Mars is actually inside!
Amber Westgate: What the hell?! Razzles Mars is here!
Adam LaRue: Looks like she actually was dead, Amber!
Amber Westgate: She looks alive and well to me…and also pissed!
Razzles grabs a hold of Diamond and begins to fight with her. The crowd cheers loudly for their hero returning. Diamond is having a hard time as Razzles gets the best of her. Diamond tries to crawl away and that is when Razzles enters the ring to the sound of a pop.
Razzles Mars: You want me so much Diamond?! You want a match, you got it!!!!!
The crowd goes into a frenzy once again, as Razzles stands tall in the ring!
Amber Westgate: Razzles Mars is officially back in Zion Wrestling and it’s very clear who she’s back for!
Adam LaRue: What a return and what a night Fusion: BattleBorn has been! But of course, with Fusion: BattleBorn now nearly in the rear view, we are now inching closer to Destiny!
Amber Westgate: Next week’s show sets the foundation for that very well! Last week, Valentina Skye gave Zion management an ultimatum, and they gave her an answer! Next week, kicking off the show her, Xavier Amari, and Nao Saegusa will face off in a Triple Threat Match!
Adam LaRue: As announced this past Monday on Mayhem, the Chance Briefcase is back in play and will be fought for at Destiny III! We have three qualifiers set up now, as Kaitlin Williams will take on Kelsey Savage, Lara Bratton will take on Lukas Baudelaire, and Damian Simmons will go one on one with Daria Dorsey!
Amber Westgate: Well I haven’t been given any notes on this match at the beginning of the night, but it seems we have a last minute match created for next week! Kimberly Williams will be going one-on-one with Nova The Soothsayer!
Adam LaRue: And in the main event, Kaya Parker has sworn that she will cash in her Gateway Championship on Yukiko Kusanagi for the Queen of Strong Style Championship! That match goes down next week, as Parker looks to bring that title back to the Genesis of Destruction! All that and more happens next Friday on Fusion!
The United Center Arena, the home venue of Chicago, Illinois, selected by Zion Wrestling for its blue brand’s special episode event, Fusion: Battleborn. The audience of Chicago has been deemed as one of the most passionate audiences in the professional wrestling industry. However, tonight’s main event features a championship bout with a lot of personal history and ties between the two competitors. To speak more on the situation, the live broadcast of the show transitions to the commentator’s booth moreover to Amber Westgate and Adam LaRue.
Amber Westgate: Welcome back to Fusion: Battleborn! We’ve finally reached the main event of our special episode tonight! The Zion Wrestling World Heavyweight Championship is on the line. Our world champion, ISIS, is defending her championship belt against G.O.D. member and controversial rival at the moment, Madi McNamara!
Adam LaRue: For those who has been glued to the drama between ISIS and Madi, the back and forth happens to be over Madi’s tag team partner and best friend, Lena Galante. ISIS feels Lena can follow in her footsteps and Madi is holding her back but Madi believes ISIS has gone drunk with power.
Amber Westgate: ISIS’ attitude has been questionable at the very least. She granted this world heavyweight championship match out of the kindness of her heart but Mad strongly insists she has what it takes to be a world champion. I know Lena is watching this match from the back and wants to be nowhere when the match happens!
Adam LaRue: Well, Madi McNamara believes she is the one to dethrone ISIS herself. Lena Galante is in full support of her tag team partner and thanks to our audience tonight, I’m sure they are behind Madi tonight and Chicago’s roof will blow off if she can beat one of the most dominant champions in Zion Wrestling history, ISIS.
Inside the arena, the lights fell to a pitch dark and silence filled the air. The big screen lights up with some footage, the sounds of footsteps shattered that silence. Madi McNamara stepped into view and almost instantly she caught sight of something that garnered her attention. She walks towards it, those footsteps steadily echoing as she gets closer and closer. Intrigue showed in her face as she tilted her head to the side. Willa reaches forward and grabs the camera that was filming, picking it up to look at it. A pleased expression flashed across her features. Two words would leave her lips and ring out against the silence.
'Mine now.'
Cutting back to the interior of that arena, “Miss Nothing” by the Pretty Reckless hit with a thunderous effect. Madi McNamara arrived, leaning more toward her Willa Stoneheart persona. She steps out from the back, thick red smoke pouring in all around her. Standing there, basking in it for a moment. As the camera would zoom in closer, she flashed a mischievous smirk, and even winked. Very soon after, she focused her attention down that long ramp and at the ring.
Determination radiated off of her as she began to make her way down the ramp. That ring, square in the middle of the arena, was her sole focus. She heard nothing, no fans, no ring crew, nothing except for that ring. Their reaction, whether they loved or hated her, was drowned out entirely. She stops at the bottom of the ramp, eyes glued to that ring before her. Once more, Willa mouthed those two simple words 'mine now.'
She jolted forward, sliding into the ring and quickly popped up to her feet. She walked around that ring a couple times before coming to a stop in the middle of the ring. The camera focused on the back of that pink leather jacket she wore. Across the top were the words 'Lena X Madi” written over a black star. Beneath the black star, written in gold cursive “Rising Star Boulevard”, mimicking a street sign.
Removing that jacket, she leaned into the ropes, passing it off to a ring attendant. Her intensity was at an all time high and the way she paced showed just how eager she really was to get everything underway.
Amber Westgate: I know every bone in her body is sharpened and her nerves are on high alert. This is Madi’s biggest match of her entire career and she has been training her butt off to become the next World Heavyweight Champion.
The lights go out. 'Bad' by Royal Deluxe begins to play. A single spotlight shines over the entrance. Inside the spotlight Isis has her back turned to the camera. She turns around. Flexes. Holds her pose for a couple of seconds. Then she saunters down to the ring with the spotlights following her. Upon reaching the ring she walks up the ring steps, walks across the apron. She signals for the referee to come over to open the ropes. The ref obliges. She walks to the center of the ring, awaiting her are three full length mirrors. The lights in the arena come alive. Isis turns around to look at herself in the mirror. She flexes to her heart's content admiring what a physical specimen she is. She turns around, drops to the mat, performs push ups in a manner where she is simply showing off. Isis walks over to the turnbuckle, she leans back as she watches people remove the mirrors from the ring. She remains there until the match starts.
Adam LaRue: ISIS, our reigning and defending Zion Wrestling World Heavyweight Champion. She’s been a dominant force in her championship reign but even more in the ring. ISIS tonight is ready to remind everyone why she is the world champion for a reason.
Darrion Hughes: The following contest is our main event of the evening and it is for the Zion Wrestling World Heavyweight Championship!
Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Darrion Hughes: Introducing first, the challenger! Hailing from New York City, New York! At five feet, seven inches tall, weighing in at 127 pounds! She is “Miss” Madi McNamara!
Chicago explodes in full support of Madi being introduced by Darrion. She walks out from her corner and stands in the center posing for the main camera. Madi looks over her right shoulder to ISIS who stands in her corner holding the belt over her right shoulder and rolls her eyes at her opponent. Darrion continues with the introductions as Madi returns back to the corner.
Darrion Hughes: Introducing next, her opponent! Hailing from Chicago, Illinois! At six feet tall, weighing in at 160 pounds! She is the Zion Wrestling World Heavyweight Champion, ISIS!
ISIS struts from her corner and takes center stage in the ring to pose with her arms out for the audience to admire her presence. The Zion Wrestling World Heavyweight Championship belt remains around her waist but the audience are more supportive of Madi despite it being her hometown. In the end, she removes the championship around her waist and hands it to the referee as Darrion leaves the ring and both competitors are in their corners.
Amber Westgate: Madi is bringing it to our world champion with a series of Dropkicks! ISIS is still on her feet especially with her physical prowess but that won’t stop Madi!
ISIS takes a moment to figure out her right arm but Madi leaves the ring and lands a Clubbing Blow from behind making the champion stumble. She stops at the ring post and Madi has the perfect opportunity to grab onto the targeted right arm and slam it against the steel structure. The fans at ringside groan in pain from seeing ISIS’ arm nearly break after Madi shows a more vicious side to her gameplan.
Crowd: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!
Amber Westgate: Madi McNamara has the champion in a very bad predicament! She slammed that right arm into the ring post and that’s a smart game plan to help limit ISIS’ strength!
ISIS holds down on the right arm finally collapsing to her right knee on the ringside mat. Madi sees an opportunity and charges at ringside into her but gets caught in the arms of the world champion who lifts him off the mat and drops her face first on the apron edge! Her body bounces off the structure and she holds onto her chin until eating a Running Clothesline that plants her down on the outside mat!
ISIS and Madi. Two women who have been through an emotional toll on the journey to this very moment in time. Madi McNamara is ready for the action by the way she’s warming up in her corner but ISIS stands there poised and confident in her ability to win. Both women leave their corner simultaneously and take their sweet time to measure each other up before joining together in the center of the ring. Madi looks up to ISIS who stares down and Madi mouths off to ISIS who simply shoves her face away.
Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Adam LaRue: Madi has the confidence and motivation to win the biggest prize on the Fusion brand. However, the champion is someone many wouldn’t even attempt to talk to on their first day.
ISIS spreads her arms out begging Madi to come at her. Madi looks away after getting her face shoved away and then returns back with a Knife Edge Chop that blows the champion in her chest! ISIS takes a step back hugging her chest and Madi steps up to tell her telling she’s going to become the new world champion.
Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
ISIS goes for a right hand but Madi ducks under the strike to run to the ropes and rebound with enough speed to clobber her with a Running Dropkick into the right arm! ISIS remains on her feet but gets hit with another Dropkick into the same arm again! She leans against the ropes on her feet holding onto her right arm and unfortunately, she gets Dropkick again through the ropes where ISIS falls down on the ringside mat but lands on her feet.
Adam LaRue: Oh my God! What a clothesline! ISIS nearly took her entire head off!
The referee leans in between the ropes demanding for both competitors to get back inside the ring as he’s halfway through his count. ISIS picks up Madi off the canvas and rolls her inside the ring before following afterwards. She takes Madi in her grasp and drags her to the corner; Having her there, a strong Back Elbow into her head keeps her opponent at bay until she starts Shoulder Barging with her good shoulder making Madi’s abdomen painful with each shove.
Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Adam LaRue: And this is the worst position for Madi as we speak. ISIS takes a lot of time to be methodical in how she hurts her opponents. Madi needs to get the momentum back on her side!
Madi covers her ribs with her arms until getting launched out of the ring with the pure strength of ISIS. She flies nearly halfway across the ring and lands harshly on the canvas. ISIS doesn’t let up on the offense. Madi crawls to the ropes until getting grabbed from behind with a knee placed on the back of her head to choke her down on the middle rope. The referee counts to four but ISIS releases her knee and strolls around the ring posing for the fans.
Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Amber Westgate: Our champion is enjoying this! All those weeks about being Madi’s friend or doing what’s best for Madi and Lena was complete bullcrap!
Madi crawls over to an unoccupied corner and slowly stands up on her feet using the top rope to help her. She turns around and leans back on the corner turnbuckles. However, ISIS already takes charge and leaps off the canvas for the Corner Splash, crushing her weight down on Madi’s body. Madi falls into ISIS after the attack and ISIS hugs her for a Belly-to-Belly Suplex tossing her over her head into the center of the ring!
Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Adam LaRue: Corner Splash and the Overhead Belly-to-Belly Suplex! ISIS nearly launched her out of the ring and here’s the pin attempt!
ONE...!
TWO...!
Madi kicks out from the pin attempt and ISIS rolls her eyes already annoyed at Madi’s perseverance. She gets back up on her feet and reaches down for Madi, dragging her back up to her feer but Madi breaks the hold and lands a Dropkick into the right arm again! ISIS takes two steps back and Madi gets back up to break off into a run for the STO but ISIS stands her ground. She lifts Madi off the mat instead for a Uranagi!
Crowd: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!
Amber Westgate: Uranagi! Madi’s back nearly exploded from the impact and she’s not done!
To make it worse for Madi, ISIS runs to the ropes and leaps onto the middle before leaping backwards higher for the Springboard Moonsault crushing her weight on top of Madi’s. Chicago groans from the impact and ISIS raises the right leg while posing and smiling to the fans at ringside as the referee drops down for the pin attempt!
Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Adam LaRue: Springboard Moonsault! Our world champion showed that she can do it all! Here is the pin attempt!

Madi kicks out from the pin attempt again! ISIS gets annoyed and stands up again. She slaps Madi down on the canvas and drags her back up to her feet. Hugging her from behind, ISIS lifts her opponent off the mat for a German Suplex!
Amber Westgate: German Suplex!
ISIS has the hold on her and shifts her body weight to easily carry her off the mat while standing back up on her feet. She falls backwards and lands Madi on the canvas with a second German Suplex!
Adam LaRue: Second German Suplex! Are we going to see a third?!
ISIS smirks and rolls her body around to stand both of them up on the canvas. Madi plants her weight fighting against the strength and grabs the right arm of ISIS before almost snapping it over her shoulder causing ISIS to release the hold off of her!
Amber Westgate: Yes! Yes! Yes!
ISIS walks around nursing her right arm until turning back into the center of the ring to eat a Jumping Back Elbow catching her in the chin that puts ISIS down! Chicago is on their feet and enjoying the momentum returning back to Madi! ISIS is up in a corner and Madi charges across the ring for a Running Back Elbow into her face again! The champion falls down into a seated position and the contender runs into the ropes, rebounds and lands the Corner Meteora into the shoulders of ISIS!
Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Adam LaRue: Meteora in the corner! Madi McNamara has the match back in her favor and she’s going all out! She’s realizing she can’t hold back anything!
ISIS is nursing that right shoulder and she crawls into the center of the ring trying to fight against the pain. However, Madi runs to the ropes yet again and rebounds to leap over the body of ISIS and plant her foot down on her head for the signature Curbstomp! ISIS’s face gets planted into the canvas and Madi collapses to her knees and rolls her over onto her back for the pin attempt!
Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! THIS IS AWESOME! THIS IS AWESOME! THIS IS AWESOME!
Adam LaRue: CURB STOMP! CURB STOMP BY MADI MCNAMARA! THE SIGNATURE CURB STOMP AND HERE’S THE PIN!

No! ISIS powers out of the pin attempt by kicking her entire body out from the predicament. Madi’s body flies away for a moment until landing on the canvas. She stands up on her knees knowing she can’t waste time. Lena walks over to the fallen body of ISIS and reaches down to help her up.
Crowd: THIS IS AWESOME! THIS IS AWESOME! THIS IS AWESOME! THIS IS AWESOME!
Amber Westgate: Madi McNamara just needs to end it now! The champion is in a vulnerable position and a good finish will earn her the world heavyweight championship!
Madi tries her best to pick up ISIS in the Shoulder Powerslam but the world champion slips behind her, hugs her and plants her down on the canvas with the third German Suplex! The third German Suplex nearly spikes her opponent on the back of her head and Madi rolls backwards onto her knees almost out of it. ISIS, on the other hand, rebounds from the ropes and leaps in the air landing that Bicycle Kick that blows her head back from the impact! Madi collapses down on the canvas and ISIS falls down on her chest to hook the leg again!
Crowd: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!
Adam LaRue: BICYCLE KICK! BICYCLE KICK! MADI’S FACE NEARLY TURNED INTO MASHED!
ONE...!
TWO…!
THR-
Madi shoots her entire body out of the predicament! Chicago applauds Madi for still being in the fight still and she lays there almost lifeless from the kick to her face. ISIS sits up and shakes her head for a moment until standing back up to her feet. She reaches down for a handful of her hair, yanking Madi back up to her feet then with a simple thrust of her arms, she holds Madi on her right shoulder in position for the One-Arm Powerbomb.
Crowd: NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO!
Amber Westgate: ISIS has had enough and ready to arm the Welcome to Dystopia Powerbomb!

Amber Westgate: YESSSSS! YES! YES! SHE HAS LOCKED IT! THAT WAS THE PERFECT COUNTER!
Adam LaRue: KIMURA! MADI MCNAMARA HAS THE WORLD CHAMPION LOCKED IN THE KIMURA!

The champion is in a very bad position. Madi continues to torque away on the right arm. However, ISIS collapses down to both knees making it worse for her to fight back.

Darrion Hughes: Here is your winner by pinfall and STILL the Zion Wrestling World Heavyweight Champion! ISIS!!!
Amber Westgate: McNamara brought the absolute best of herself tonight, but in the end it wasn’t enough! ISIS is still undefeated, and is still your World Champion!
ISIS stands tall with her title in hand, before approaching McNamara as she tries to recover and offering her hand. Lena Galante now makes her way down to the ring now, and with both her and ISIS watching, McNamara accepts the mutually reluctant handshake. ISIS attempts to leave as quickly as she can, only for Lena to pull her back in and raise her arm, along with McNamara’s.
ISIS takes her leave now, only to be met with the sounds of “Murder on the Dancefloor” by Sophie Ellis-Bextor! Blaze Darling makes her way out onto the stage, with her and ISIS now coming face to face!
Adam LaRue: And now the battle lines have been drawn! These two are headed on a collision course to Dallas!
Amber Westgate: Destiny III is about to be a movie, Adam! And I’m certainly here for it!
Darling and ISIS continue to stare each other down as we fade to black!
Amber Westgate: Welcome back to Fusion: Battleborn! We’ve finally reached the main event of our special episode tonight! The Zion Wrestling World Heavyweight Championship is on the line. Our world champion, ISIS, is defending her championship belt against G.O.D. member and controversial rival at the moment, Madi McNamara!
Adam LaRue: For those who has been glued to the drama between ISIS and Madi, the back and forth happens to be over Madi’s tag team partner and best friend, Lena Galante. ISIS feels Lena can follow in her footsteps and Madi is holding her back but Madi believes ISIS has gone drunk with power.
Amber Westgate: ISIS’ attitude has been questionable at the very least. She granted this world heavyweight championship match out of the kindness of her heart but Mad strongly insists she has what it takes to be a world champion. I know Lena is watching this match from the back and wants to be nowhere when the match happens!
Adam LaRue: Well, Madi McNamara believes she is the one to dethrone ISIS herself. Lena Galante is in full support of her tag team partner and thanks to our audience tonight, I’m sure they are behind Madi tonight and Chicago’s roof will blow off if she can beat one of the most dominant champions in Zion Wrestling history, ISIS.
Inside the arena, the lights fell to a pitch dark and silence filled the air. The big screen lights up with some footage, the sounds of footsteps shattered that silence. Madi McNamara stepped into view and almost instantly she caught sight of something that garnered her attention. She walks towards it, those footsteps steadily echoing as she gets closer and closer. Intrigue showed in her face as she tilted her head to the side. Willa reaches forward and grabs the camera that was filming, picking it up to look at it. A pleased expression flashed across her features. Two words would leave her lips and ring out against the silence.
'Mine now.'
Cutting back to the interior of that arena, “Miss Nothing” by the Pretty Reckless hit with a thunderous effect. Madi McNamara arrived, leaning more toward her Willa Stoneheart persona. She steps out from the back, thick red smoke pouring in all around her. Standing there, basking in it for a moment. As the camera would zoom in closer, she flashed a mischievous smirk, and even winked. Very soon after, she focused her attention down that long ramp and at the ring.
Determination radiated off of her as she began to make her way down the ramp. That ring, square in the middle of the arena, was her sole focus. She heard nothing, no fans, no ring crew, nothing except for that ring. Their reaction, whether they loved or hated her, was drowned out entirely. She stops at the bottom of the ramp, eyes glued to that ring before her. Once more, Willa mouthed those two simple words 'mine now.'
She jolted forward, sliding into the ring and quickly popped up to her feet. She walked around that ring a couple times before coming to a stop in the middle of the ring. The camera focused on the back of that pink leather jacket she wore. Across the top were the words 'Lena X Madi” written over a black star. Beneath the black star, written in gold cursive “Rising Star Boulevard”, mimicking a street sign.
Removing that jacket, she leaned into the ropes, passing it off to a ring attendant. Her intensity was at an all time high and the way she paced showed just how eager she really was to get everything underway.
Amber Westgate: I know every bone in her body is sharpened and her nerves are on high alert. This is Madi’s biggest match of her entire career and she has been training her butt off to become the next World Heavyweight Champion.
The lights go out. 'Bad' by Royal Deluxe begins to play. A single spotlight shines over the entrance. Inside the spotlight Isis has her back turned to the camera. She turns around. Flexes. Holds her pose for a couple of seconds. Then she saunters down to the ring with the spotlights following her. Upon reaching the ring she walks up the ring steps, walks across the apron. She signals for the referee to come over to open the ropes. The ref obliges. She walks to the center of the ring, awaiting her are three full length mirrors. The lights in the arena come alive. Isis turns around to look at herself in the mirror. She flexes to her heart's content admiring what a physical specimen she is. She turns around, drops to the mat, performs push ups in a manner where she is simply showing off. Isis walks over to the turnbuckle, she leans back as she watches people remove the mirrors from the ring. She remains there until the match starts.
Adam LaRue: ISIS, our reigning and defending Zion Wrestling World Heavyweight Champion. She’s been a dominant force in her championship reign but even more in the ring. ISIS tonight is ready to remind everyone why she is the world champion for a reason.
Darrion Hughes: The following contest is our main event of the evening and it is for the Zion Wrestling World Heavyweight Championship!
Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Darrion Hughes: Introducing first, the challenger! Hailing from New York City, New York! At five feet, seven inches tall, weighing in at 127 pounds! She is “Miss” Madi McNamara!
Chicago explodes in full support of Madi being introduced by Darrion. She walks out from her corner and stands in the center posing for the main camera. Madi looks over her right shoulder to ISIS who stands in her corner holding the belt over her right shoulder and rolls her eyes at her opponent. Darrion continues with the introductions as Madi returns back to the corner.
Darrion Hughes: Introducing next, her opponent! Hailing from Chicago, Illinois! At six feet tall, weighing in at 160 pounds! She is the Zion Wrestling World Heavyweight Champion, ISIS!
ISIS struts from her corner and takes center stage in the ring to pose with her arms out for the audience to admire her presence. The Zion Wrestling World Heavyweight Championship belt remains around her waist but the audience are more supportive of Madi despite it being her hometown. In the end, she removes the championship around her waist and hands it to the referee as Darrion leaves the ring and both competitors are in their corners.
Amber Westgate: Madi is bringing it to our world champion with a series of Dropkicks! ISIS is still on her feet especially with her physical prowess but that won’t stop Madi!
ISIS takes a moment to figure out her right arm but Madi leaves the ring and lands a Clubbing Blow from behind making the champion stumble. She stops at the ring post and Madi has the perfect opportunity to grab onto the targeted right arm and slam it against the steel structure. The fans at ringside groan in pain from seeing ISIS’ arm nearly break after Madi shows a more vicious side to her gameplan.
Crowd: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!
Amber Westgate: Madi McNamara has the champion in a very bad predicament! She slammed that right arm into the ring post and that’s a smart game plan to help limit ISIS’ strength!
ISIS holds down on the right arm finally collapsing to her right knee on the ringside mat. Madi sees an opportunity and charges at ringside into her but gets caught in the arms of the world champion who lifts him off the mat and drops her face first on the apron edge! Her body bounces off the structure and she holds onto her chin until eating a Running Clothesline that plants her down on the outside mat!
ISIS and Madi. Two women who have been through an emotional toll on the journey to this very moment in time. Madi McNamara is ready for the action by the way she’s warming up in her corner but ISIS stands there poised and confident in her ability to win. Both women leave their corner simultaneously and take their sweet time to measure each other up before joining together in the center of the ring. Madi looks up to ISIS who stares down and Madi mouths off to ISIS who simply shoves her face away.
Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Adam LaRue: Madi has the confidence and motivation to win the biggest prize on the Fusion brand. However, the champion is someone many wouldn’t even attempt to talk to on their first day.
ISIS spreads her arms out begging Madi to come at her. Madi looks away after getting her face shoved away and then returns back with a Knife Edge Chop that blows the champion in her chest! ISIS takes a step back hugging her chest and Madi steps up to tell her telling she’s going to become the new world champion.
Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
ISIS goes for a right hand but Madi ducks under the strike to run to the ropes and rebound with enough speed to clobber her with a Running Dropkick into the right arm!
