Zion Wrestling Presents...Destiny III Night TWO!!

[Kai Morgan]

And now...Zion Wrestling presents...The Destiny III Kick-Off!

Night One of Destiny III was amazing but night two for Zion Wrestling has sold out the Cotton Bowl Stadium once again. The audience has returned to witness the second night of amazing championship matches and long-awaited rivalries to be put to the test. However, the kick-off show has done an amazing job on keeping the audience interested and aware of the story for each match. However, kicking off things is the Mayhem commentary team is none other than Winter Mae and Kyle Cassidy.

Winter Mae: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the kick-off show of night two for Destiny III! Oh man, we’ve been here with you all night but we’re about to have a match on the kick-off show of Destiny III. That’s right, the inaugural Zion Wrestling Global Tag Team Championships will be meeting it’s first champions tonight in Dallas, Texas!

Kyle Cassidy: Oh yeah! All of our seven tag teams on the Mayhem brand have a chance to make history on the biggest event in Zion Wrestling history! To become the first Global Tag Team Champions would put their names down in the history books but for one tag team, they feel it’s been long overdue.

Winter Mae: And yeah, that tag team is none other than Hungry for Destruction who on the last season episode of Mayhem secured their final spot in the match thanks to Livvie Nelson winning the gauntlet for their team! Hungry for Destruction has been saying the tag team championships are theirs and I think a lot of people would agree.

Kyle Cassidy: Well, I don’t agree at all! Every tag team deserves an opportunity for the championships tonight. Yes, Hungry for Destruction may have pinned the World Tag Team Champions but they pinned themselves too! Serenity Holmes and Livvie Nelson now have to prove they can back up what they say.

Winter Mae: And this is extremely important tonight! Mayhem’s tag team division gets represented on a monumental scale which each tag team having the chance to show what they’re made of. If they can outlast every other team, they become the inaugural Global Tag Team Champions! Before we get to that however, let's turn it over to someone else looking to gain gold tonight!



We come in on the Kingdom locker room where we see Lilith Meadows and Christina Olson, the two of them talking amongst each other, clearly going over some last minute strategy before the gauntlet match for the tag team championships. Lilith is the first to look up, noticing the camera as she flashes a quick smile before she immediately reaches down into the top of her ring gear, pulling out a KitKat. She opens it up, breaking it in two and reaches half out to Chrissy who laughs and shakes her head.

Christina Olson: I’m good, Lil. Thanks though.

Lil shrugs her shoulders, shoving both halves right into her mouth and immediately begins to chew on them, the crunching of the wafers being chewed into clearly heard.

Christina Olson: Lil, tonight we got the chance to once again make history in a company. We got the chance to become the first ever Global Tag Team Champions here in Zion and well, if the people know anything about us, it’s that we love to make history. We got historic title runs, first ever champions, and all that under our belts so we know what it takes and what it means to make history. We gotta outlast six teams, hell realistically we just gotta truly outlast two. And Lil and me, we been down this road many times before. Sayin we’re the best damn tag team today ain’t just a catchphrase, it’s the god damn truth.

Just as Christina says this, Lilith makes a loud, exaggerated swallow as she walks in front of Christina, a massive smile on her face.

Lilith Meadows: It’s been a while since me and Chrissy got the chance to show the world what we can do together. I lost my bestie for a while, failed to keep her from goin into a dark place, heck, I was even in a dark place for a while. It feels good to be back with her, takin on the world together like we promised each other. Lots of things have changed since we had tag team gold in our possession, but it’s like ridin a bike, ya never forget how to accomplish it no matter how long it’s been.

Christina grins, placing both hands on Lilith’s shoulders, looking down at the blonde before looking back up.

Christina Olson: Yeah, I ain’t been the same, confident, cocky me I was before I went down my dark path and came back out on the other side, but one thing I do know, one thing I know I can always count on, it’s that Lil will always have my back and be one of the best fuckin hype women I’ve ever met. We’re ready for the fight, we’re ready for the challenge. We’re ready to go to Valhalla in order to secure these titles and bring them home to the Kingdom where they rightfully belong. Tonight, the Valkyries fly into war once again and we’ll either be victorious or go down as warriors and have our spot in Valhalla secured one way or another. See y’all out there.

Christina grins, grabbing black face paint and drawing two lines under each eye and winking at the camera.

Christina Olson and Lilith Meadows: Skoll!

[Devyn Mitchell stands backstage alongside Nadia Allen, dressed in her ring gear. Sporting a stern expression the red head positions herself in front of the camera.]

Devyn: Devyn Mitchell here, once again with the one and only Nadia Allen!

[Devyn beams with warmth, however, Nadia doesn't return the favor.]

Devyn: I know you're focusing on the big three way match tonight. Another crack at the Viral title. Another crack at Maki Megumi, which I know you've been itching for that. This is your first Destiny! How are you feeling?

[Naddy gives Devyn a subtle nod while her demeanor remains the same.]

Nadia: No more waiting Devyn. I've been a while for this. Waited three years to win another title. Waited almost the last year to wrap my arms around your neck, Maki, and you on the ground. No more waiting.

[Nadia pauses. Devyn brings the mic back towards her.]

Devyn; That's an interesting word you just mentioned because you have waited for all those things as much. You came to Zion for matches like this. For shows like this and Destiny is the biggest show. I'm curious, how do you balance your desire to finally get payback on Maki after all these months of waiting, especially with the war between the Queens and G.O.D, while also focusing on defeating Maki and Giannia Rojos and become the Viral champion?

Nadia: It's difficult because I don't respect Maki and when you wrestle someone you don't respect, you just want to put them out for good. But I have to balance. I have to. I wrestle to be the best. Not to be number two. Being a champion is something not everyone can do. Gianna has held it for a year, which is so tough to do. But I have to win matches like this, on shows like this. Losing isn't an option.

[Devyn nods.]

Devyn: Thank you for this time.

Nadia: No problem.

[Kai Morgan]

The camera transitions from the commentary booth to the inside of the ring showing Vivian Blake dressed to the tee for this event. She receives the cue from a production member at ringside to begin with the match introductions.

Vivian Blake: Ladies and gentlemen, our opening contest is scheduled for one fall and it is a gauntlet match for the Zion Wrestling Global Tag Team Championships!

Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Vivian Blake: The rules of the match are as follows:
Two tag teams will begin the match under standard tag team rules.
Once a tag team eliminated, the next tag team will enter the ring and continue the match.
Eliminations can be by pin falls, submissions, count-outs, disqualifications, referee stoppages.
The last remaining tag team will become the first ever Zion Wrestling Global Tag Team Champions!

“Through The Never” by Metallica begins to play through the PA system as Kara “Killer” Carbajal is first to walk out onto the stage and she stops in the middle as Miguel Ortiz and Eduardo Gutierrez then walk out from either side of the stage to stand on her left and right. The duo leaving Kara behind then begin to make their way down the ramp to the ring with snarls plastered across their faces as they glare at the ring in front of them.

Once they reach the bottom of the ramp, Gutierrez quickly rolls under the bottom rope as Ortiz pulls himself up onto the apron and Ortiz ascends the steel steps before he and Ortiz climb into the ring and take their place on the left and right side of the ring again who is standing in the center of the ring as the two glare into the hard camera and “Through The Never” fades out.

Vivian Blake: Introducing first At a combined weight of 606 pounds, Eduardo Gutiérrez and Miguel Ortiz! They are The Void!

Eduardo and Miguel are in their own designated corner thanks to the official plus standing across from them is one of the newest tag teams, The Silver Brothers who are gushing at the opportunity to strike big.

Vivian Blake: Already in the ring, The Silver Brothers!

Kyle Cassidy: There is something different about crowning a first-time champion or first-time champion. The Kick-Off show is going to be special because we are seconds away from discovering which tag team will be the first Zion Wrestling Global Tag Team Champions!

Winter Mae: The Void and The Silver Brothers are going to be the ones to start this match putting both teams at the biggest disadvantage in the match but if they can survive it, their victory will mean much more. Enough talking, we’re starting the gauntlet to crown the inaugural Zion Wrestling Global Tag Team Champions!



The match officially begins with Eduardo on the apron for The Void but Miguel Ortiz starts out for his partner and the audience boos Eduardo relentlessly. Eric Sigs also begins for his respective team. Both men leave their corners to circle the ring; Miguel is ready for a fight and so is Eric and as they lock up, Eric easily throws him down to the canvas from the overweight power of his brute strength.

Kyle Cassidy: Miguel Ortiz will be meeting tag teams he’s never seen before. The Void better be ready to back up their claims as the most dominant faction in Zion Wrestling history!

Eric demands for Miguel to get back up and test him on strength. Miguel gets back to his feet, he approaches Eric and extends his right hand towards his opponent until a brutal kick into the ribs keeps him at bay. The Void representative pummels him down to the canvas with Clubbing Blows and other strikes from above. Eduardo is clapping on the apron and Quinton on the opposite team, holds onto the tag string wanting to be tagged in the match!

Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Winter Mae: The Void showing why they are one of the most dominant factions on Mayhem. The Silver Brothers may have the strength but they have the experience.

Eduardo reaches down for the head of his opponent and helps him back up to his feet. He lands a Forearm Blow into his head then holds down onto the right arm of Eric to launch him into the ropes. Upon the rebound, Eric immediately leaps into his opponent to tackle him down on the canvas with a great Spear that shocks Eduardo!

Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Kyle Cassidy: Spear! Oh my God! Spear! The Silver Bullet as he calls it and he’s crawling to his brother, Quinton!

The audience watches Eric crawl along the canvas to his corner and his brother has his hand extended as far out over the top rope. Eric is almost fingertips away and with his last strength, he leaps across to get the tag until Miguel pulls Quinton from off the apron letting his head smack against the edge of it. Eric is pissed at Miguel tapping his forehead and then pointing behind him.

Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Winter Mae: That little snake Miguel! I can’t stand him!

Eric stands up on his feet and turns around into a Superkick that leaves him stunned on his feet and dazed. A kick into his ribs leaves him hunched forward and Miguel manages to flip him on top of his head and hoists his body up to launch him forward on the canvas from the finishing Crucifix Powerbomb!

Kyle Cassidy: Crucifix Powerbomb! Crucifix Powerbomb! The finishing blow has put him down and here’s the pin!

ONE...!

TWO...!

THREE!!

Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Eduardo is on the apron for his corner and Miguel stands on his feet before raising his arms to the main camera harboring a war-like scream. The referee checks on Miguel and Eduardo to see if they continue but Miguel shoves him aside and demands for the next team to come out.

Vivian Blake: The Silver Brothers have been eliminated!

“American Venom” plays from the stadium’s surround systems immediately alerting everyone to the stage to see Jane Adler & Sadie Cassidy walking from the backstage area. Miguel Ortiz is begging them to get into the ring and both women march down with every intention to beat down The Void.

Vivian Blake: Introducing next! At a combined weight of 304 pounds, Sadie Adler & Jane Cassidy! Regulators Incorporated!

Winter Mae: Regulators Incorporated have shown up to the fight and are coming down to the ring! These two women have experience in the tag team division for Mayhem and now they’re rushing Miguel!

Regulators Incorporated break into a sprint down to the ring and slide in at the same time. Miguel charges forward attempting to throw a clothesline at Jane but then steps into a Flying Forearm Smash from Sadie that makes him wobbly on his feet. He turns around into Jane who leaps off the mat for the Enzuigiri Kick that clocks him in the head. The two look at each other and nod. They break into the ropes and rebound for a Double Dropkick that takes him down to the mat!

Kyle Cassidy: Regulators Incorporated have taken control of the match in their favor! They’ve taken down Miguel who is currently down from the Double Dropkick which means Eduardo is all that is left!

Eduardo stands on the apron and holds the tag string demanding the referee to keep them away. Luckily for Eduardo, the referee demands for one of Incorporated Regulators to choose a representative for their team. Unfortunately, they don’t get that chance. Miguel is already up behind them and when they turn around, Miguel lands a Roundhouse Kick into the head of Jane!

Winter Mae: Roundhouse Kick!

Jane falls down to the canvas then rolls out of the ring. Sadie attempts to charge into him but gets grabbed by Eduardo on the apron. She breaks the hold off of her and slaps Eduardo in the face sounding off across the stadium!

Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES!

Kyle Cassidy: Everyone in this arena is jealous of Sadie right now! That was the most satisfying slap in Zion Wrestling history!

When Sadie argues with Eduardo, she gets grabbed from behind by Miguel who nods at Eduardo then snaps Sadie down to the canvas on her head from the Half and Half Suplex!

Crowd: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!

Winter Mae: Half and Half Suplex! Miguel Ortiz is pushing everything for this match!

She tries her best to get onto her hands and knees but Miguel shoves her head in between then legs then easily flips her up over her head. Miguel hoists her body above his full extension then launches Sadie across the ring for her body to collapse into the canvas from the finishing Crucifix Powerbomb!

Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Kyle Cassidy: Another finishing Crucifix Powerbomb! The Void is going two for two as Miguel gets the pin attempt!

ONE...!

TWO...!

THREE!!

Miguel stands on his knees as Sadie is helped out of the ring by her partner and other ringside crew members. Eduardo continues to applaud his partner, represent The Void and insult the fans booing him at ringside.

Vivian Blake: Regulators Incorporated has been eliminated!

“Bad Girls” by M.I.A. strikes the surrounding systems garnering a positive reaction from the audience. Although smoke covers the stage, Akira Fujimoto, Lien Kamiya and Hayumi Yamamoto march down to the ring. However, inside the ring, Miguel Ortiz waves his hands and beckons them to come meet him in the ring. Eduardo’s confidence has skyrocketed thus he ushers Hebi No Rengo to get into the ring.

Vivian Blake: Introducing next! At a combined weight of 383 pounds! Liên Kamiya and Akira Fujimoto! Hebi No Rengo!

Winter Mae: Hebi No Rengo! Oh man! These two women are spitfires! In other words, once they are in the ring, they will fight until they die and Miguel Ortiz is about to experience it!

Akira jumps onto the apron letting Lien take lead on this match as she slides into the ring but Miguel charges forward attempting a Lariat. Lien ducks under the thrown right arm and makes an immediate tag having her partner be involved. Both women enter into the ring but Miguel charges into them yet both women trip him into the corner causing him to chest against the turnbuckles chest first!

Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

He slams into the turnbuckles and turns around to lean his back against them. Lien runs across the ring and leaps for the Corner Dropkick planting her feet into Miguel’s chest causing him to sit down in the corner. To make it worse, he has to eat Akira throwing her entire body weight from the Seated Corner Cannonball!

Kyle Cassidy: Corner Dropkick followed by the Corner Seated Cannonball! Miguel is down and they have an opportunity to eliminate The Void!

Miguel crawls into the center of the ring and rises up onto his right knee shaking the cobwebs from his head as he’s dazed from the impact. However, both women see that and side steps across their feet for a Double Superkick! Miguel’s entire body flies back and he slaps Eduardo on the chest as he rolls out of the ring temporarily unable to move. The referee looks at Eduardo and tells him he’s in!

Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES!

Winter Mae: Adjust your screens, record on your DVR’s, screenshot, do whatever to capture this moment because at Destiny III, this is a historical moment to see Eduardo get put on his ass!

Eduardo stands in between Akira and Lien noticing the predicament he’s in. Both women are stalking him - toying with him to be frank and Eduardo begs for them to let him go free. Instead, he tries to throw a cheap shot at Akira who blocks the punch and lands a Forearm Blow into his head that turns him into her partner! Lien catches him and shoves his head in between his grasp while hooking both his arms for the finishing Tiger Driver 91’!

Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Kyle Cassidy: Tiger Driver 91!!! Hebi No Rengo are enjoying this to the maximum and Lien is pointing at her partner to go to the top rope!

Eduardo lies down on the canvas in the center of the ring but Akira starts to climb the corner turnbuckles all the way to the top rope. The audience get off their seats and stand as Akira stands tall on the top rope then leaps forward rotating for her finishing 450 Splash slamming her entire body weight down on Eduardo’s body!

Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES!

Winter Mae: PIN HIM! PIN THAT LITTLE BASTARD!

ONE...!

TWO...!

THREE!!

Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Akira rolls off from the successful pin and the referee has ringside crew members pull Eduardo’s body out of the ring. Unfortunately for Miguel, he gets back into the mix and understands his team has been eliminated. He argues with a few of the officials and ringside crew members then shoves them all away to carry Eduardo over his right shoulder like a hanging dead prey.

Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! NA! NA! NA! NA!
NA! NA! NA! NA!
HEY! HEY! HEY!
GOODBYE!

Vivian Blake: The Void has been eliminated!

“Since You Been Gone” by Rainbow plays next from the surround systems and the audience gives a massive positive reaction knowing who it is. Kelly Kash and Ayumi Kawada exit from the backstage area to center stage staring at Hebi no Rengo awaiting for them to the ring. Kelly and Ayumi look at each before walking down to the ring, interacting with fans on the way down.

Vivian Blake: Introducing next! At a combined weight of 257 pounds, Ayumi Kawada and Kelly Kash! They are Team Big, Tall, and Cute as FUCK!

Kyle Cassidy: Yes! This is my team to win! These two are the fan favorite and have beaten a lot of tag teams on Mayhem! Ayumi Kawada and Kelly Kash are going to be our inaugural Global Tag Team Champions!

Ayumi and Kelly get into the ring and stand in front of Hebi no Rengo. Akira and Lien are standing face to face with their opponents. Instead of brawling, both teams decide who is starting for who. Ayumi stays in the ring meeting Akira as their partners reflect back to their posts on the apron. Ayumi and Akira begin exchanging blows back and forth to try and secure the momentum for their teams!

Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Ayumi ducks under a thrown right arm and turns around to kick Akira in the gut to attempt a Suplex but Akira lands a couple blows to the exposed ribs to stop the attempt. Instead, Ayumi spins out of the hold to lift her opponent across her shoulders for the Death Valley Driver!

Crowd: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!

Winter Mae: Death Valley Driver! Ayumi Kawada with such a devastating move in the center of the ring! Here is the pin attempt!

ONE...!

TWO!

No! Akira kicks out from the pin attempt and Ayumi gets back on her feet. She reaches down for her head and helps her opponent back up before launching her into their team’s corner. Akira’s back becomes glued to the turnbuckles and Ayumi gets the tag! Kelly enters through the ropes and Ayumi launches Akira into the ropes to rebound into Ayumi for a Flapjack but Kelly leaps up to catch Akira’s body for the Double Knee Facebreaker!


Kyle Cassidy: Oh my God! A Flapback/Double Knee Facebreaker combination on Akira Fujimoto!

Kelly doesn’t stop the momentum as she gets into the mount position to reign down strikes from above. However, the referee makes it to four and she gets off from her opponent. Kelly helps Akira back to her feet again and attempts a Suplex but Akira drives her back into the turnbuckles of their corner and Lien reaches over to slap her partner on the back!

Crowd: CUTE AND TALL! CUTE AND TALL! CUTE AND TALL! CUTE AND TALL! CUTE AND TALL! CUTE AND TALL!

Lien clobbers Kelly with a Elbow Blow that releases the hold off her partner. Hebi No Rengo are officially in the ring having Kelly trapped in the corner. Lien holds down onto her right arm to launch her into the ropes and trips her down off the return with a Drop Toe Hold! To complete the signature combination, Akira finishes the sequence with a Standing Moonsault to the back of Kelly Kash!

Crowd: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!

Winter Mae: The Drop Toe Hold to the Standing Moonsault! Hebi No Rengo are busting out all the moves and here is the pin attempt by Lien Kamiya!

ONE...!

TWO!

Kelly kicks out from the pin attempt! Ayumi is holding onto the tag string as Lien decides to sit down on the back of Kelly and apply a Camel Clutch! The pain in her spine is increasing as seconds pass by but Lien continues to lean backwards hoping to bend her in half for a submission! The referee checks on the condition of Kelly who responds telling him she’s still able to compete!

Kyle Cassidy: No! No! No! Don’t tap out! Fight back Kelly!

Kelly doesn’t tap out! She begins to fight against the submission hold by carrying Lien’s weight on her back until flopping down to the canvas to slam her off! Kelly sits up on the mat caressing her lower back and gets back on her feet to tag in Ayumi!

Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Ayumi hops over the top rope and rushes over to Akira knocking her down off the apron to the ringside mat. She nods with Kelly and both women help Akira to her feet. Kelly manages to shove Akira in between her legs then flip her over onto her body for the Orange Crush Bomb completing the Double Pumphandle Orange Crush Bomb!

Winter Mae: Double Pumphandle Orange Crush Bomb!

Positioned near the corner, Kelly gets back onto the apron the moment Ayumi hops over the top rope then springboards off the adjacent top rope for the finishing Double Springboard Split-Legged Moonsault placing her entire body weight to crush Lien on the canvas!

Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Kyle Cassidy: Dangerous Drop! The finishing Moonsault! Here is the pin!

Ayumi removes herself from Lien’s fallen body. Both Team, Big, Tall and Cute AF are standing inside the ring enjoying the fruits of her lab. Although Kelly is feeling it on her back, she tells the referee she’s able to continue. Ayumi assures her and the two women look at the stage waiting for their next opponents.

Vivian Blake: Hebi No Rengo has been eliminated!

“Ride of the Valkyries” by Brothers of Metal plays from the Cotton Bowl Stadium’s surround systems and the fall of snow supplies the stage. Christina Olsen and Lillith Meadows march out from the backstage area and walk down the long narrow pathway to the ring with their eyes on their opponents. Ayumi Kawada and Kelly Kash are warming up in their own corner preparing for another fight of their life.

Vivian Blake: Introducing their next opponents! At a combined weight of 235 pounds! Christina Olsen and Lilith Meadows!

Ayumi tells Kelly to be on the apron to recover. On the other hand, Lilith and Christina are just getting into the ring with the referee getting in between both teams to prevent any issues. Lillith Meadows stands in her corner as Christina remains on the apron holding the tag string.

Winter Mae: Dallas, Texas! These are the last two teams to meet our final team in this gauntlet. You know who is the last team and they have been waiting very patiently. In order to get the best chance, both teams will need to put each other down as soon as possible.

Ayumi steps out from the corner along with Lillith who are circling the ring. Both women meet inside with urgency and lock up but Lillith takes the right arm in her grasp before dragging her down to the canvas to apply a Fujiwara Armbar in the center of the ring! Lilith utilizes her submission prowess to target the arm of Ayumi who is stuck in the center of the ring who is doing her best to get out of the hold!

Crowd: PLEASE DON’T TAP! PLEASE DON’T TAP! PLEASE DON’T TAP! PLEASE DON’T TAP!

Kyle Cassidy: Fujiwara Armbar! Lilith has a specialty in submissions! Her grappling is not to be messed with!

Kelly watches on the outside demanding for her partner to fight back! Lilith pulls back on the right arm and Ayumi has had enough of the pain. Instead, she begins to stand up on her hands and knees to carry Lilith across her shoulders. However, Lilith slides behind him and turns around to eat a Superkick!

Winter Mae: Superkick by Ayumi Kawada!

Lilith gets stunned from the blow and Ayumi tries to end it early with a finishing blow but Lilith sees it coming and sneaks behind her again to land a Reverse DDT! The impact settled her opponent down on the canvas but to make it worse, she tagged in her partner, Christina Olsen, to prepare for their tag team move.

Kyle Cassidy: Ayumi Kawada is in more danger than ever! Christian Olsen got tagged in and they’re looking to work together!

Lilith manages to pull Ayumi to her feet and throw her into their designated corner but she gets dropped into the middle turnbuckle chest first from a Drop Toe Hold by Lilith. Ayumi doesn’t get time to react when Christina charges in to deliver a Running Meteora to her shoulder blades connecting her spine into her back! Ayumi falls down from the turnbuckles, Lilith gets onto the apron and Christina drags her to the center of the ring!

Crowd: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!

Winter Mae: Last of the Valkyries are really pushing their best to face the final team in the gauntlet! Here is the pin attempt!

ONE...!

Ayumi kicks out from the pin attempt and Christina gets back to her feet. She reaches down for her head and helps her back up. Christina launches her into an unoccupied corner and Ayumi’s back gets slammed into the turnbuckles again. She runs into her opponent but Ayumi ducks her body to lift her over the top rope but Christina lands down the apron perfectly. She lands a Forearm Blow to keep her at bay to jump onto the top rope then leaps across the ring for the Springboard Tornado DDT!

Kyle Cassidy: Christina Olsen with the Springboard Tornado DDT! She spiked her right on her head with that signature move and here is the pin attempt!

ONE...!

TWO…!

TH-

No! Ayumi refuses to give up and kicks out her entire body from the pin. Christina looks off to her partner and tells Christina to finish it. Without hesitation, Christina slowly stands up and walks over to the ropes before leaving to the apron to climb the top rope of an unoccupied corner. She stands up and leaps forward for the Shooting Star Splash but Ayumi rolls out of the way letting Christina crash and tags in Kelly in the nick of time!

Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Winter Mae: Ayumi just saved herself and her team from being eliminated after Christina crashed and burned from the Shooting Star Splash! Now she’s made the tag to Kelly Kash who is coming in like a bat out of hell!

She runs past Christina who is still recovering from the crash and lands a Big Boot into Lilith’s head knocking her off the apron. Kelly turns around their opposing team’s corner watching Lilith stand on her right knee prompting Kelly to sprint from the corner and drop her with the Shining Wizard planting her down on the canvas!
Kyle Cassidy: Aussie Knee Party! Aussie Knee Party! Kelly Kash fighting hard for her partner who has gone through hell to make sure she’s okay!

Christina lies down in the center of the ring and Kelly rolls underneath the bottom rope to the apron. She pulls on the top rope to stand up then climbs onto the top rope where Dallas stands up again. She leaps off from the top turnbuckle to rotate backwards in the air and stomp both her feet into Christina’s chest for the Shooting Star Double Foot Stomp!

Crowd: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!

Winter Mae: Shooting Star Double Foot Stomp! The height of that jump and then pressing both her feet into Christina’s chest! She calls it “I’m Not A Vampire” which I still don’t believe but here comes the pin attempt!

ONE...!

TWO...!

THREE!!

The referee points to Ayumi Kawada and Kelly Kash as the surviving team from this battle. The Last of the Valkyries both leave the ring and get escorted to the backstage area by ringside crew members. The audience of Dallas, Texas, are in full support of Ayumi and Kelly eliminating two teams consecutively to reach the final team in the match. Ayumi and Kelly are standing in the center of the ring doing their best to recover knowing who is coming next.

Vivian Blake: The Last of the Valkyries are eliminated!

Ayumi and Kelly meet together to discuss strategy for the final team. Dallas continues to applaud them for their resilience and determination that grows into a standing ovation. Ayumi and Kelly appreciate the gesture but keep their focus on the stage wondering what the pause is.

Kyle Cassidy: Team Big, Tall and Cute as FUCK have all the support in Dallas - the world tonight. They have proven themselves to be a tag team worth watching and are now on the cusp of becoming inaugural Global Tag Team Champions!

“Rise” by Divyded immediately plays from the chorus and the audience goes into chaos mode with the boo’s. Serenity Holmes and Livvie Nelson are standing on the stage after two spotlights shine on them and they look ready. Both women walk down the long ramp to the ring with Serenity mouthing they will become the Global Tag Team Champions but Livvie Nelson has never looked hungrier to kill her prey.

Vivian Blake: Introducing the final team! At a combined weight of 276 pounds! Livvie Nelson, Serenity Holmes! Hungry For Destruction!

Before the women get into the ring, they slowly pause to stare at their opponents. Livvie and Serenity stand on the apron keeping the staredown and their entrance music fades to silence letting the Texan audience take control. Hungry for Destruction steps into the ring to meet with their opposing team. Serenity and Ayumi are locked in a showdown with both women arguing yet Livvie and Kelly are forehead to forehead with a silent stare that says it all.

Winter Mae: This. Is. It. We have reached the tipping point. The Global Tag Team Championships resting on the podium next to us are about to be around the waist of two women crowning their glory moment at the biggest stage of them all, Zion Wrestling!

Kyle Cassidy: Team Big, Tall, Cute As FUCK versus Hungry for Destruction! They scored a victory against Hungry for Destruction on Mayhem but Livvie Nelson secured the spot for them! Now they are here at Destiny III and we are going to find out NOW who will be our inaugural Zion Wrestling Global Tag Team Champions!

Both team members start trading back and forth rallying up the audience to join them gladiator-day like praise. Livvie and Kelly fall down to the canvas brawling around on the canvas but Serenity and Ayumi are fighting in the corner. The referee tries his best to control the chaos but Kelly and Livvie fall out of the ring to brawl on the outside letting Serenity and Ayumi take control of the match as official representatives for their team.

Crowd:
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
THIS IS AWESOME! THIS IS AWESOME! THIS IS AWESOME! THIS IS AWESOME!

Serenity blocks a strike after they return to the center of the ring and clobbers her with a Elbow Blow. Ayumi fires back with a Forearm Blow but Serenity leaps up with Leaping Knee Strike causing Ayumi to fall back into the ropes. Serenity sees an opportunity and Livvie is back on the apron to receive a tag! Livvie gets into the ring and throws Ayumi to the outside letting her join her partner.

Winter Mae: This. Is. It. We have reached the tipping point. The Global Tag Team Championships resting on the podium next to us are about to be around the waist of two women crowning their glory moment at the biggest stage of them all, Zion Wrestling!

Serenity looks at both of their opponents at ringside recovering and Livvie slaps Serenity on the chest. Their own signal for Serenity to run to the ropes and rebound into Livvie who holds her hands out for Serenity to leap on them and using her strength to launch Serenity over the top rope for the Spaceman Heat Seeking Missile colliding her entire body weight into Ayumi and Kelly!

Kyle Cassidy: Heat Nuclear Missile! Did you see how high Livvie Nelson launched her partner? Serenity is still up and she throws Ayumi into the ring telling her to finish it!

Ayumi gets thrown into the ring and rolls into the center. Livvie is already in the corner stalking Ayumi who barely stands onto her right knee until Nelson charges for the finishing Shining Wizard!


Crowd:
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Winter Mae: TOTTENHAMMER! HUNGRY FOR DESTRUCTION ARE GOING TO BECOME CHAMPIONS!

ONE...!

TWO...!

THR-NO!!!

Ayumi powers her right arm off the canvas and Livvie stands on her knees wondering how that can even happen. Serenity hops onto the apron and tells Livvie to kick her in the head just for good measure. Nelson smirks and slaps Ayumi down on the head a couple of times, having Dallas boo her like crazy. Serenity waves them off knowing they are going to win this match.

Kyle Cassidy: SHE KICKED OUT OF THE TOTTENHAMMER! AYUMI KAWADA IS NOT GOING DOWN WITHOUT A FIGHT! THEY’VE COME TOO FAR AND ARE WILLING TO SACRIFICE IT ALL!!!

Livvie backs up to their team's corner and holds onto each side of the top rope. Ayumi, on the other hand, starts to move after the audience starts chanting for her revival. She crawls into the center of the ring and Livvie breaks off for the Punt Kick but Ayumi moves out of the way to hold onto her body then rolls backwards onto her shoulders for the pin attempt!

Winter Mae: TOTTENHAMMER! HUNGRY FOR DESTRUCTION ARE GOING TO BECOME CHAMPIONS!


Crowd:
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

ONE...!

TWO...!

THR-!

No! She kicks out from the pin attempt and Livvie gets up on her feet pissed off from the willpower of Ayumi. Livvie turns around and runs into Ayumi out of pure rage but Ayumi ducks under the thrown arm and turns around for Ayumi to land a Superkick stunning Livvie who falls back into the ropes for Serenity to get a secret tag then she rebounds off eat a Roundhouse Kick into the head dropping her to a knee. Livvie gets put down on the canvas with back-to-back Kawada Kicks then puts her down with a Punt Kick to the head!

Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Kyle Cassidy: AYUMI KAWADA IS GOING TO BE THE MVP OF THIS MATCH! LIVVIE IS DOWN AND OUT OF THE RING BUT SERENITY TAGGED HERSELF IN!

Serenity ducks through the ropes then charges into Ayumi who lets her pass into her corner to be in the grasp of Kelly who grabs her then clobbers her down to the canvas with a One-Hand signature Chokeslam that plants Serenity down on the mat!

Winter Mae: BIG MASSIVE KELLY WITH THE ONE-HAND CHOKESLAM FROM THE APRON!!! THEY’RE CALLING IT AND AYUMI TAGS IN KELLY!

Kelly begins to climb to the top rope and she waves at Ayumi to help Serenity up until picking her up onto the top rope with Kelly. Ayumi also climbs the top rope next to her partner and both women stand on the middle turnbuckle holding Serenity on the top rope before leaping off with Dallas watching to see Serenity get launched into the canvas from the biggest Chokeslam ever!

Crowd: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Kyle Cassidy: YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! YES! YES! YES! THAT IS THE BIGGEST AND HIGHEST CHOKESLAM OF ALL TIME!!! TEAM BIG, TALL AND CUTE AS FUCK ARE GOING TO WIN THE GLOBAL TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIPS!!!

Kyle Cassidy: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

The entire audience gasps in awe and shock as the referee gets dragged out of the ring by Livvie Nelson from outside. The referee falls down to the ringside mat and Kelly looks around until realizing what happened along with Ayumi is absolutely frustrated from that dirty move.

Crowd:
YOU FUCKING SUCK! YOU FUCKING SUCK! YOU FUCKING SUCK! YOU FUCKING SUCK! YOU FUCKING SUCK!

Winter Mae: I ABSOLUTELY CANNOT STAND HUNGRY FOR DESTRUCTION! THEY HAD THAT WON!

Ayumi runs to the ropes behind her and rebound with enough speed attempting for a Suicide Dive but Livvie catchers her in her grasp before falling backwards for an Elevated Slam into the barricades. Unfortunately for Kelly who is standing up yelling at Livvie, Serenity manages to get a little bit of energy to slowly stand on her hands and knees before Low Blowing Kelly!

Crowd:
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Kyle Cassidy: I SWEAR TO GOD IF THEY WIN LIKE THIS, THE TAG TEAM DIVISION BETTER BE READY TO BRING HELL TO THEM!!!

Kelly falls down onto her knees covering her groin from the dirty move. Livvie gets into the ring and is in the opposing corner. Serenity uses both ropes in the following corner to stand up but Nelson yells at the top of her lungs and Serenity does the same. They both break into a sprint shortening the gap to Kelly until they land simultaneous Shining Wizard squishing her between the attack! Serenity just lies down on her and the referee slowly gets into the ring to make the count!

Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Winter Mae: MOVINGHAMMER! MOVINGHAMMER! MOVINGHAMMER!!!

[Kai Morgan]

AND NOW…ZION WRESTLING PRESENTS…DESTINY III!



We cut to a drone shot panning into Cotton Bowl Stadium as pyro begins to go off not just over the stage, but along the walls of the huge venue! All the screens of the stage light up, with a huge crowd taking up most of the noise as we pan across the nearly sold out stadium 80,000+ strong! We go down to the announce table, where we see Winter Mae and Ben Petrie sitting behind it!

Winter Mae: Night one was a hell of a time, but night two promises to be even better! Welcome back to Destiny III! I'm Winter Mae, joined by Wasteland's Ben Petrie!

Ben Petrie: We're starting off the night hot with the Gateway Championship Fight For Infinity Battle Royal!

The lights go out. The haunting ballad of “Lux Aeterna” begins to play. As the song plays the lights don’t come back on, the haunting ballad continues to play.

When the lights come back on in the stadium, Zachary Porter is standing at the top of the stage wearing a Troy Aikman Cowboys jersey, jean shorts and black sneakers. The crowd gives Zach a pretty positive hometown welcome. He stands there soaking in the admiration from the crowd.

He allows the music to fade before bringing the microphone to his lips.

Zachary Porter: Dallas, Texas; having fun?

The crowd cheers indicating that they are enjoying themselves. Night 1 of Destiny was a success. The pre show was fun. Everyone in the stadium appears just as amped up for Night 2 of the proceedings.

Zachary Porter: I can’t imagine missing this experience for the world. When the announcement was made last year about Destiny coming to Dallas, Texas... I marked this date on my calendar. Who doesn’t want to main event the biggest event in their companies calendar in the state they were born in? I wanted to compete in this stadium as a World Champion, when it became clear I wouldn’t have that honor, me and KC talked about running back our epic clash during the first Destiny minus Tits McGee. And minus my demon self. You had no idea how much losing the World Cup broke me. I let myself down. I felt I let The Void down. Main event or bust was the goal. I felt like I had nothing to fight for--

Zach takes a moment to gather himself. With a deep breath he continues.

Zachary Porter: Standing here tonight in front of all of you, reinforces why I began falling in love with this sport. After the initial “I am going to wrestle to cope with a bitch breaking my heart” phase wore off, I doubled my efforts to become one of the best wrestlers in the world. Even I’ll admit, after Ashlynn. After losing the World Championship to Jordan I became bitter.

Most of my life I have had to deal with loss. My mother. My father. My LFL franchise. Women. Paradise Lost became my rallying cry. All I could focus on was the next thing I was going to lose. I also felt the need to remind anyone who would listen that the good times won’t last forever. I realized I can’t continue wallowing in that dark place anymore.

Zach smiles.

Zachary Porter: I am relieved all of you in Texas didn’t abandon me. It brings me joy that the Void hasn’t abandoned me either, I haven’t made it easy on them. Twice I took my ball and went home. Twice they had good reason to say fuck this guy. Contrary to what Nami believes about us being a fake family, a real family doesn’t abandon their own when things aren’t ideal. KC. Ed. Miguel. Thank you for welcoming me back. I love you guys.

Zach holds his hand over his heart. Despite how the fans may feel about The Void, hearing how he regards them does elicit a positive reaction from the crowd. He turns his attention to the camera. Looking straight into it he says.

Zachary Porter: Morgan... what more can I possibly say? Lets put on a goddamn show.

“Lux Aeterna” begins playing. He nods his head. He waves to the crowd before turning around to walk to the back.

[Kai Morgan]

Darrion Hughes: The following is the Fight For Infinity Battle Royal…and it is for the Zion Wrestling GATEWAY! CHAMPIONSHIP!

The first group of five competitors will start in the ring at the same time, which each group of five competitors entering in five minute intervals! This will continue until all five groups, including the mystery 26th competitor, enters the ring! The only way to score an elimination is by throwing your opponent over the top rope, with both feet touching the floor! The last person standing will be the winner and the NEW GATEWAY CHAMPION!

Introducing first, already in the ring…from Tampa Bay, Florida…weighing in at 150 lbs…Mallory Bennett!



The opening beats to "Missile" by Dorothy begins to play as a thin layer of smoke begins to billow onto the stage. The camera shoots up the rampway out of focus, with the blurry haze beginning to subside to a clear view of Jenna Sharpe, arms outstretched at the top of the stage. She slowly paces her way down the ramp as the music continues to blare behind her.

Darrion Hughes: Introducing first…representing The Queens of Chaos…from Calgary, Alberta, Canada…weighing in at 130 lbs…Jenna! Sharpe!

She continues down the ramp, giving nods of acknowledgement to the fans lining the front row. She makes it to the ring, hopping onto the apron and once again outstretching her arms to a massive ovation from the crowd.

She steps through the ropes and into the ring, immediately stepping to the other side of the ring and gesturing to the fans on the other side of the arena as well. She nods her head, backing into the corner as the music begins to fade and she awaits the start of the match.



A single high-pitched scream cues the arena lights to illuminate the stage from darkness as red spotlights. They soon settle and focus on a single subject, Morgana Summers. She makes her way to the ring taking her sweet time, pretty and proud, dark blue pyro going off lining the ramp, her arms out as if she was cuing them herself. She slithers and slides into the ring, blowing a kiss toward her opponent, or the hard cam if out first.

Darrion Hughes: Next…from Danvers, Massachusetts…weighing in at 122 lbs…Morgana! Summers!



The lights are out as the initial piano melody begins, before all lights explode to life with the violins in Escala’s tango-flavoured rendition of “Roxanne”, and point us in the direction of Nova The Soothsayer, stood on the stage with two hand-fans, which she unfolds in time with the music. The lights change in time with each new line of the music and Nova slowly sashays towards the ring accordingly.

Darrion Hughes: Next…from The Realm of Possiblity…weighing in at 120 lbs…Nova! The Soothsayer!

Sliding under the bottom rope, a single spotlight drops on Nova The Soothsayer as she pushes back her hood, removes her face mask and drops to one knee, still holding out her fans in majestic fashion before the lights slowly fade back in, concluding her entrance.



The lights dim as the Shieldmaidens motto “Hell is empty and the Maidens are here!” comes over the Tron. The building drive of Ekhymosis’s “Paz Con Cadenas” starts. As it starts to really drive on, Las Olvidadas accompany Carmen "Turbo" Leija to the ring. Turbo steps in, hopping around, ready to go and face whatever comes at her.

Darrion Hughes: And the last of the first group…representing Las Olvidadas…from New Orleans, Louisiana…weighing in at 120 lbs…Carmen! Turbo! Leija!



The bell rings and the maelstrom of action begins, with Morgana Summers going after Carmen Leija and Nova The Soothsayer going after Jenna Sharpe! Mallory Bennett, intelligently, steps back, letting the field demolish each other! The movements of both pairs of competitors seems to almost mirror each other, with Sharpe fighting back Nova and Summers fighting back Turbo until they’re each backed up into the ropes! Summers and Sharpe step back, before attempting to send their opponents out of the ring with a Clothesline over the ropes! But again, at the same time, Nova and Turbo pull down the ropes sending Sharpe and Summers over! They cling to the top rope however, nailing their respective opponents over the heads with a Forearm as they approach again! They step through the ropes, ensuring everyone is kept out of danger! Turbo comes back to Summers however, looking to once again send her over the ropes! But this backfires, with Summers low bridging the ropes and sending her over and out of the ring for our first elimination!

ELIMINATED: CARMEN LEIJA

Mallory Bennett immediately jumps to attack Summers, realizing the number of people in the ring are now even and she needs to be proactive! They trade strikes back and forth, with Bennett beating Summers back into the corner and nailing her with a European Uppercut to keep her there! She rushes to the opposite corner, coming back and going for a Clothesline in the corner! She then pulls Summers out of the corner, dropping her with a Hangman Neckbreaker! Just then, Jenna Sharpe tries going after her, looking for a Clothesline! But she ducks underneath it, nailing Sharpe with a boot to the midsection before getting her in position for a Vertical Suplex! She goes for the lift, but Sharpe slips off her shoulder, landing behind her! She pushes her from behind, sending right into a Superkick from Nova The Soothsayer! Sharpe grabs Bennett off the Superkick, throwing her over the top rope! But Bennett clings to the top rope, laying out on the apron and refusing to budge as Sharpe attempts to push her off! The countdown timer displays itself on the titantron!

Crowd: FIVE…! FOUR…! THREE…! TWO…! ONE…!





The next group of competitors rush out of the entryway, consisting of Trey Wilde, Kiyoko Miyagawa, Dominic Mac Allister, Lena Galante, & Mai Blackman! Wilde doesn’t waste time in making an impact, running ahead of his group and jumping onto the apron! He jumps off the top rope, dropping both Jenna Sharpe and Nova The Soothsayer with a Springboard Clothesline! He rolls back up to his feet off the move, jumping onto Morgana Summers and dropping her with a Sit Out Facebuster! Wilde gets hyped up in front of the crowd, only to be immediately shut down by The System! Spinning Back Elbow by Mai Blackman! Dominic Mac Allister looks to cut in now, doing for a Blackman with a Bicycle Kick! But Blackman catches the leg, leaving Mac Allister hopping! He retorts however, jumping up and clipping Blackman with an Enziguri! Galante doubles down on this, jumping off the top rope and catching a staggering Blackman with a Dropkick! Galante looks to get up from the attack, only to be caught with a Busaiku Knee from Kiyoko Miyagawa!

Meanwhile, Morgana Summers and Nova The Soothsayer go at it, with Summers catching Nova with a Roundhouse Kick that knocks her loopy! It seems like she’s about to fall to the mat, but Nova comes back, nailing her with a Double Knee Facebreaker that sends Summers faltering back into the corner! Nova looks to push Summers up the turnbuckle to send her out of the ring! But Summers fights back, nailing Nova over the head with repeated strikes to send her away! It eventually works, with Nova staggering back right into a Backstabber from Jenna Sharpe! Sharpe pulls Nova up, looking to send her over the top rope! But Nova fights back, sending Sharpe over the ropes instead! Sharpe stays on the apron, pulling Nova over herself as she approaches! The two trade strikes on the apron, looking to keep themselves out of danger! Eventually, Mallory Bennett rushes in, looking to knock both of them off to score two eliminations at once! But just as she does, Nova hits a particularly stiff shot that sends Sharpe buckling down to the apron, leaving herself as the only one in the path of the Patron Saint of Harm's Way! Bennett clobbers her, sending her off the apron and to the floor!

ELIMINATED: NOVA THE SOOTHSAYER

The countdown timer starts up again, with everyone in the ring now squaring off with one another!

Crowd: FIVE…! FOUR…! THREE…! TWO…! ONE…!





The next group is out, with Risa Lemon, Samuel Lopez, Isabella Rossi, Travis Levitt, and Max Walker all coming down to the ring! While four of them truly enter the ring, Walker doesn’t, opting to stay out and watch the carnage from ringside! And the carnage is quite present the moment Lopez hits the ring, as he immediately takes Kiyoko Miyagawa with a Clothesline From Hell! He then immediately turns his attention to Trey Wilde, who’s in the corner! He clobbers him with a Body Splash, before pulling him in with a Short-Arm Clothesline! He pulls Wilde to his feet, before throwing him over the top rope!

ELIMINATED: TREY WILDE

Lopez isn’t done with his rampage however, catching a Diving Crossbody from Lena Galante before dropping her with a Swinging Side Slam! Lopez attempts to get to his feet, only to be met face to face with Morgana Summers! The two of them stare daggers into each other, as they both slowly rise to their feet before immediately trade strikes! Meanwhile, Risa Lemon goes for a Dropkick to Mallory Bennett! She catches the legs however, sending Lemon back first to the mat! She pulls Lemon up, looking for a Powerbomb! But Lemon reverses, wrapping her legs around Bennett’s head and dropping her over the top rope with a Hurricanrana!

ELIMINATED: MALLORY BENNETT

Lemon smiles from the apron, realizing she scored an elimination! But she doesn’t have long to celebrate, as she’s immediately sent off the apron and to the floor courtesy of Travis Levitt!

ELIMINATED: RISA LEMON

Levitt turns around, immediately trading blows with Mai Blackman! Max Walker continues to watch from ringside with delight as the countdown timer ticks down again!

Crowd: FIVE…! FOUR…! THREE…! TWO…! ONE…!





Out comes the next group, with Kimberley Stark, Kelsey Savage, Savannah Lawrence, Aubrianna Powers, and Lara Bratton! Once again, while five competitors come to the ring, not all five enter right away, with Lara Bratton stopping right next to Max Walker and resting her arm on his shoulder! Walker, not realizing who’s next to him, muses with her over what he’s watching inside the ring! Soon Walker turns to see who’s with him, throwing Bratton’s arm off of him and running into the ring to get away from her! This leaves an opening for Blackman, who fights off Travis Levitt just in time to spike Walker with The System! She grabs him before he can fall to the mat, throwing him out of the ring!

ELIMINATED: MAX WALKER

Meanwhile, Isabella Rossi is busy cleaning house, as he catches a Bicycle Kick attempt from Lena Galante before catching her with a Spinning Heel Kick! Galante staggers back into the ropes, with Rossi clobbering her over with a Clothesline!

But Aubrianna Powers cuts in, dropping Stark with a Spear! Jenna Sharpe comes in now, dropping Powers with a Superkick!

Meanwhile, Kimberley Stark comes back, nailing Powers behind with a Kick that sends her out of the ring through the ropes! The countdown timer ticks down again as everyone continues to fight!

Crowd: FIVE…! FOUR…! THREE…! TWO…! ONE…!





The final full group rushes down to the ring, with Madi McNamara, Crystal Hilton, Selene Jackson, Erik Holland, and Barry MacKenzie rushing down to the ring! Once again, while all five competitors rush down to the ring, not all of them go in right away, with that person this time being Barry MacKenzie, who goes to check on a still laid out Max Walker at ringside! He points to Lara Bratton and Mai Blackman in the ring as the culprits! MacKenzie rushes into the ring, seeing Blackman and Bratton breaking down Travis Levitt and Savannah Lawrence respectively! MacKenzie pulls Bratton away from Lawrence, dropping her with a Uranage Sideslam! MacKenzie goes to the top rope now, leaping onto Bratton with the Big Boi Splash! He gets Bratton up, dumping her over the top rope with ease!

Holland stands near the ropes, watching Mac Allister as he realizes that he’s been eliminated! He lingers just a bit too long however, with Savannah Lawrence jumping in and throwing Holland over as well!

RESULT: LAST WOMAN STANDING

[Kai Morgan]

Cameras find The Purge’s locker room backstage where Meliana Rodrigo is standing at the door. She knocks softly and waits before the door opens and SHIRO comes slipping out, trying to keep the door as closed as possible before closing it behind him.

Meliana Rodrigo: "Shiro! Hello, sir. Sorry to bother you. Meliana Rodrigo, here to–"

SHIRO lifts a hand to stop her.

SHIRO: "I know who you are, miss. If you’re here for Jack, he’s busy getting ready for his match now."

SHIRO starts to turn back towards the door when Meliana speaks up.

Meliana Rodrigo: "Oh…well, perhaps you wouldn’t mind answering some questions then."

SHIRO stops, sags his shoulders and sighs before turning back towards her as he adjusts his flat cap.

SHIRO: "Sure! Not like I’m a busy man myself or anything."

Meliana Rodrigo: "Great! So, Jack Morrison has quite a big match tonight as he seeks to defend his Zion Internet Championship against Melissa Tasman. How’s he feeling tonight?"

The Japanese ring veteran makes a face like he just got a whiff of something foul from the interviewer.

SHIRO: "Back up, you said “seeks to defend his championship”? You high or something? What are the weed laws here in Texas? Hold up."

He turns and cracks the door as he leans towards it.

SHIRO: "YO, CALVIN! What are the drug laws here?"

There’s no intelligible response from inside the locker room; just the guttural roar of Calvin Faye that leaves SHIRO pondering for a second.

SHIRO: "...Good talk! Thanks, Cal!"

He shuts the door and turns back to Meliana who looks like she just heard something unhuman.

SHIRO: "Anyway, as I was saying. “Seeks to defend”? No, no, kiddo. Trust me, you’re talking about the greatest Internet Champion that Zion has ever seen. Only the second two time Internet Champion and let’s be real, he’s a helluva lot more memorable than that fucking fruit basket, Alexis Lemon, who did it before him. Shit, his first reign surpassed hers and he’s already defended it more than she ever did both times. He came close last year to capturing the Internet Championship last year at Destiny II. Dinah Wolfe got in the way Where is she now?"

He pauses as if giving Meliana time to answer but as soon as she opens her mouth, he cuts her off.

SHIRO: "Exactly! I can’t remember anything she did after she lost the title to Ricky fucking Rodriguez, who got cocky and thought he could keep that man in there…"

He thumbs over his shoulder at the door.

SHIRO: "From claiming what was rightfully his. What happened when Jack got robbed by Bianca Page after she let Tater do all the dirty work? Did anyone see Jack fuck off and disappear? No, he came back and reclaimed his property. That’s what he does. The man is a fucking KILLER! Now you have Melissa Tasman, little miss smiles and rainbows who tries to see the positive side of things. Well, look at the positive side of things here, Melissa. Heard you got your family here to see you. That’s wonderful. They’ll be sitting front row to watch you become just another example of why you don’t…fuck…with The Ripper."

SHIRO turns back to Meliana directly now and stares at her until she gets the picture and nods.

Meliana Rodrigo: "Thank you for your time, sir. Best of luc–"

SHIRO: "Bye!"

He turns and steps back through the door to the locker room. We hear another guttural noise, quite possibly from Calvin Faye again.

SHIRO: "Ahhhh shaddap!!"

The door slams shut, leaving Meliana Rodrigo absolutely perplexed as the scene cuts away.

IT ANGELICA’S WORLD

It aint that easy, it aint that easy
it aint that easy, but it aint so hard
It aint that easy, it aint that easy
it aint that easy, but it aint so hard

Superficial by Hiedi Montang hits the public address as the fans boo loudly as a long stretch pink VW beetle arrives by the entrance area, as it stops the driver pops up, and opens and soon exiting the beetle with help is Angelica Matthews who looks at the audience with a look of disgusting on her face. Wearing a bright pink fur robe, with bright pink Hollywood sunglasses covering her eyes, she saunters out as the lights dim and a spotlight follows The Center of the World around. As Angelica takes the time to yell at the fans or try to touch her and tell security to keep their hands away from her. As The Princess makes her way to the ringside steps with both hands out in the talk-to-the-hand motion, she looks around at an attendance with a sneer before finding a stagehand and handing them a pink vile of perfume, demanding they spray down the stairs and apron for her.

Hoppin' out the maserati
All I see is paparazzi
Snapping pictures for the
Front cover of a magazine
So I pose in everything I wear
Love to make the people stare
Always center of attention
Lookin' so bootylicious

Darrion Hughes: The following is a Loser Leaves Match! Introducing first…from her seasonal residence in Zurich, Switzerland…weighing in at 127 lbs…Angelica! Matthews!

The stage hand does what she tells him, and once the New York Native is satisfied, orders the poor sap up the ramp and demands they spray the ring for her arrival, soon the New York Barbie climbs up the steel steps, and soon snaps the “stooge” to attend to hold the ropes open for her as Angelica enters the ring and poses smugly in the center of the ring, yelling toward the audience before taking the time remove her bright pink sunglasses, then her bright robe revealing a diamond-studded pink wrestling gear with a pink top, pink ring shorts, and a pink pair of wrestling boots. She then does a kiss face toward the camera before the wicked sneer returns to her face as she leans in the corner awaiting her opponent, peering at her nails, before demanding a small bright pink pocket mirror brought to her to eye her features.



Amber Westgate:
It's come to this, Angelica Matthews and Daria Dorsey, the loser leaving Fusion. How do you think Angelica is feeling with Daria managing to make this match happen?

Adam LaRue:
I'm sure she's shocked that Daria managed to get a big one over on her. But, if there's anything to know about Angelica Matthews, she'll have a plan for this.

With Angelica in the ring, we have the iconic opening riff of “Still” playing, as we see Daria making her way to the gorilla position with a Dallas Stars inspired Green and White ring gear, as she's played in by Willie D and Scarface of Geto Boys as a brief reunion of sorts for the Houston based rap group, as there's a big pop from the crowd.

Darrion Hughes: And her opponent…from Rochester, New York…weighing in at 152 lbs…Daria! Dorsey!

“Back up in ya ass with the resurrection!
It's the group harder than an erection
That shows more affection!
They wanna ban us on Capitol Hill,
Cut it's die motherfuckers, die motherfuckers, still!

All along, it was the geto! Nothin but the geto
Takin short steps, one foot at a time, and keep my head low
And never let go
Cuz if I let go, then I'll be spineless
I'm goin insaaaaane!”

“I think my mind just goes outta control
And judge your subjects mothafuckas read about
And touch on shit they be leaving out…
I seem this motherfucker with his 9 smoking,
I see this same fool with the 9 die with his eyes open
And what this simply means is
He didn't know every dog had his day, until he seen his!
I bet you motherfuckas will too,
Because it's die motherfucka, die motherfucka still fool!”

We see Daria entering the ring, as she gestured to the crowd briefly. She gestured to them, to lull Angelica to a false sense of security to jump her in the middle of the live performance, which caused them to pause as Daria would jump Angelica, as there was a lot of animosity in this match. The crowd were hungry for blood, as Daria had tackled Angelica, looking to strike her down. She was willing to play dirty, as Angelica had done so to her so many times, while officials would separate the two, moving to the fight.

Amber Westgate:
Looks like this fight can't wait, and it's possibly the last time we'll see one of these two on Fusion!

Adam LaRue:
What a cowardly attack onto Angelica!

Amber Westgate:
There's certainly no love lost between these two tonight…

As the live performance was still going on in the background, officials were starting to separate the two of them, with Angelica goading Daria while the official is in between the two. With things de-escalated, the match finally can get underway.



The opening bell sounded, as Angelica looked a bit concerned in the situation. Daria rushed in to attack again, which has Angelica sliding out of the ropes to avoid contact. The crowd booed her vehemently, as Daria rushed out of the ring to chase her down, before Angelica slides back in under the bottom rope to stomp on Daria while she was down and pursuing her. After a few stomps she grabs Daria by her hair, and slams her face down to the mat a couple of times, the referee breaks it up as Angelica poses a bit soaking up the boos from the crowd.

Amber Westgate:
Angelica Matthews, no stranger to being confident…

Adam LaRue:
And outsmarting Daria in these opening moments. She's keeping her grounded to make sure those strikes aren't going to hit.

Angelics goes back to the offense with shots to the stomach, as the fans rally around Daria, however, Angelica would stomp on her back as she tried to roll away. She would then set up the Trust Fund camel clutch on Daria in the early stages, wrenching her neck and lower back.

Amber Westgate:
Matthews looking like she's beating Daria at her own game, grounding her with a submission early on.

Adam LaRue:
And from this angle, I can see why they have some of their respective nicknames.

Daria would cry out in pain, gritting her teeth, as she would start to ball up her fists to try and draw some energy. She plants her feet flat on the ground to pick up Angelica, before she runs back first into the corner to break up the hold. With Matthews in the corner, she tried to cover her face, as Daria would light her up with some body blows.

Amber Westgate:
Daria's past as a model boxer coming out, look at those strikes!

Adam LaRue:
You can tell the discipline in each shot, as she's focused now.

With Angelica covering up still, Daria changes her offense to sneak in a shoulder thrust into Angelica, before combining into a Northern Light Suplex and a bridge, as she covered her.

Amber Westgate:
Beautiful Northern Lights Suplex out of the corner, and the cover!

ONE…!

TWO…!

Angelica kicked out, as she started to scramble away, trying to think of a new plan of attack.

Adam LaRue:
Almost got her, as momentum has shifted drastically from that explosive move.

Angelica soon made her way out of the ring as the fans booed again as the official ordered her to move back in, but it's clear the Posh Princess wasn’t in a hurry at all. Fluffing her long blonde hair, and ordering the referee to hold back the agitated Daria, as the fans begin a loud you suck chant at the former Zion wre Wrestling Champion. As she turns to the fans who are mouthing off as she says “ Shut up poors.” As she soon begins to scramble around the ring again as Daria rushes out after her.

Amber Westgate:
Angelica desperately wanting out of this fight, here…

Adam LaRue:
No, this is her plan… use Daria's anger against her to make her make a mistake.

Dorsey rushed after Angelica, as she chased her to grab her hair and pulled her back in, before slamming her into the barricade while she was being counted by the official. Daria rolled back under the rope and back out, before she lifted Angelica up and planted her into the apron with a back suplex, as the crowd groaned in anguish.

Amber Westgate:
Good lord, what impact!

Adam LaRue:
Daria's looking to take her out with that one!

Daria had rolled Angelica back under the bottom rope, as she followed her into the ring while Angelica would scamper back, begging for mercy. Daria stalked her into the corner, before Angelica would thumb her in the eye as Daria was picking her up, before delivering a corner flatliner into the second turnbuckle, as she attempted a pin.

ONE…!

TWO…!

Amber Westgate:
Angelica Matthews was moments away from stealing that one!

Angelica would shout at the official that she had the three, but, official Heather Young stands stern in her ruling. She would grab Daria by her hair, as she shouted at her to stay down, before hitting her in the face with a big knee strike. Matthews would gloat to the fans behind Daria, before she grabbed her arms to stand on her hair, as she pulled Daria up to cause her to cry out in pain, before she gives her a punishing curbstomp after a four count in the hold.

Amber Westgate:
Angelica, meticulously punishing Daria ever since she got in control.

Adam LaRue:
That's the way to do it. Wear her down and grind your opponent beneath your heels.

Angelica then moves toward the hair, standing on it and pulling up as Heather Young immediately moves toward her ordering her to let go of the hair, however, its clear the socialite has other things in mind as she stands on her hair, the ref begins their count, as Angelica mockingly counts along with her up to four before breaking the hold, and after a few moments she feigns an apology before going for the same hold again this time, however Daria would catch her arm to pull her in for a Fujiwara armbar. She switched up to a crossfire, wrenching back, as Daria was looking to break her.

Amber Westgate:
Good scouting by Dorsey!

Adam LaRue:
This is a dangerous predicament for Angelica Matthews! She's gotta get out of there!

Angelica would try to reach the ropes, but, she was fingertips away. She keeps reaching, and would grab the bottom rope! Daria heard the official's count, as she thrashed like a shark biting down on their prey, rolling them away from the ropes and planting her down toward the center of the canvas, with the crowd popping for her predicament.

Amber Westgate:
Oh, she is in there deep!

Daria would cry out, bridging herself to try and cause more pain to Angelica, however, Angelica would manage to roll her up and tries to use the tights for leverage.

ONE…!

TWO…!

Daria kicked out, as Angelica gets up faster. She goes for a running penalty kick, though, Daria would dodge this to cause her to stumble forward. Daria would clutch her for an O'Connor roll into a deadlift German Suplex! The bridge!

ONE…!

TWO…!

THR-

Adam LaRue:
What a move! That was pure instinct for Angelica to kick out there.

Amber Westgate:
You said it, but, it looks like that took a bit out of Daria to pull out.

Daria glows with a light sweat, hair sticking to her forehead, as she expected that to take Angelica out. She gets to her feet, delivering Garvin stomps to Angelica's knees and elbows, aiming to wear her down and limit her offense. She goes down to apply a bow & arrow stretch to keep pressure onto Angelica, as she rolled back to direct pain to her spine. Angelica would start to wriggle loose, as she gives Daria a sucker punch to free herself. Both get to their feet, as Daria would go for a big hook, though Angelica kicked her in the stomach to delay her. Angelica grabbed her by the neck and poses before landing a swinging neckbreaker on Daria.

ONE…!

TWO…!

Kickout!

Adam LaRue:
A narrow kickout there, Angelica with a beautiful neckbreaker and right back into neutralizing her offense.

Angelica would grind her forearm into Daria's face. She applied a reverse chin lock to Dorsey, wearing her down. Daria would try to get the crowd behind her, as they stamp and root for her. In rhythm, they give her strength, as Daria forced herself to one knee, though Angelica grabbed her hair to force her into a backbreaker. She would follow up turning her around and planting her with a big Implant DDT.

Amber Westgate:
Buyout connected!

Adam LaRue:
Angelica's got this!

ONE…!

TWO…!

THR--no!

Daria would power out of the move at the last second, while Angelica has a temper tantrum, shouting and berating at the official, though she gets back in her face holding up two fingers defiantly. Angelica would scream at her, before she recklessly stomped at Daria, frustrated at her. She's going for her legs, looking for the 8 Figure Sum, but, Daria would draw her legs in to push Angelica away. She gets up, as Daria fired a big forearm at Angelica, but, they both had the same idea, as both are staggered and stumble backward. Daria would move back to the corner, as Angelica would land on one knee.

Amber Westgate:
That's gotta hurt!

Adam LaRue:
Both look pretty dazed now…

Angelica was the first to recover. She would stand up, as Daria instinctively climb up to the second rope. Angelica gets a running start, as Daria leapt off, and Angelica would leap up, looking for a double knee facebuster.

Amber Westgate:
Angel's Dream Vacation!

Daria would catch her legs in mid air, as she lands on her feet while Angelica lands with a hard thud. She would then tie her legs up to lock in Daria's Inferno, dead center of the ring.

Adam LaRue:
Wait?! Was that a flying nothing?

Amber Westgate:
She baited her! What a move!

Adam LaRue:
Angelica's gotta fight out of it!

Angelica squalled out in pain, as she was stuck in the move. Daria would wrench her legs, as the pain would intensify, forcing Angelica Matthews to tap out.



Darrion Hughes: The winner of this match...Daria! Dorsey!

Amber Westgate:
She's done it! Daria forces Angelica Matthews to tap! She has her business and her contract back!

Adam LaRue:
But, at what cost?! Angelica Matthews is now banished from Fusion.

Amber Westgate:
She was trying to do the same to her. It was what had to be done.

Dorsey celebrates with the crowd as we fade!

WINNER: DARIA DORSEY
RESULT: SUBMISSION (DARIA’S INFERNO)

Darrion Hughes: The following is a Triple Threat Match…scheduled for one fall!

Crowd: ONE FALL!!

Darrion Hughes: And it is for the Zion Wrestling VIRAL! CHAMPIONSHIP!

The lights dim a bit and the opening to "Underground" blares over the PA system.

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.

As the Cotton Bowl Stadium descends into darkness, a sinister atmosphere envelops the crowd, anticipation tinged with dread. Suddenly, the eerie sounds of traditional Japanese instruments echo through the air, setting an ominous tone that sends shivers down the spines of the spectators.
From the shadows emerges Maki Megumi, the embodiment of darkness and deceit, draped in a gothic ensemble infused with Japanese traditional motifs. Her presence exudes an aura of malevolence, eliciting disdainful jeers and boos from the crowd, who despise her with every fiber of their being.

With slow, deliberate steps, Maki moves towards the ring, each footfall echoing like a tolling bell signaling impending doom. The air is heavy with the scent of incense, mingling with the palpable tension that hangs thick in the atmosphere.
As she approaches the ring, eerie shadows dance ominously around her, casting twisted silhouettes upon the canvas. Torches flicker with an ethereal glow, illuminating Maki's sinister visage as she revels in the hatred of the crowd, feeding off their animosity like a dark specter of vengeance.
With a disdainful sneer, Maki ascends the ring steps, her gaze cold and unforgiving as she surveys the arena with contempt. The audience recoils in fear, their collective loathing only serving to fuel the darkness that consumes her.

In this moment, Maki Megumi emerges as a harbinger of despair, a figure of terror and malice whose very presence instills fear in the hearts of all who behold her. The stage is set for Maki to unleash her wickedness upon her opponent, leaving a trail of devastation in her wake.

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. Around her waist polished to a high gleam even in the low lights is the championship belt, and she is wearing a long cape tonight that looks very much like the Mexican national flag on one side and the American flag on the other. It flutters as she takes a run down the ramp towards the ring.

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

The lights pacing her now, moving much faster than usual. Overhead a disco ball drops and a spotlight hits it to send dots of light all over the same crowd. From the rafters little gifts for the fans come raining down, friendship bracelets little pinatas that contain a keychain or a bit of candy, very festive.

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 as she likes to do. She then climbs the ring steps and slides into the ring.

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 gets a microphone from the timekeeper. When her music fades, she brings it up to her lips, the lights are now back to normal strength and they make the glitter and gems on her makeup shimmer and gleam much the way her sequins and crystals do on her championship gear tonight.

Gianna Rojas: Nadia! Maki! ¡Venir! ¡Ven a traerme tu pelea, intenta llevarte mi Campeonato Viral! Intentar.

Her expression goes from relaxed to very intense in the mere seconds that she speaks as she gestures towards the back.

Gianna Rojas: Maki's el gran error fue interferir simplemente porque Maki odia a Nadia. ¿Quizás odio sea una palabra demasiado fuerte? De cualquier manera, fue un error. Al igual que Maki ignorar mis propios logros es un error. Dos errores no hacen un bien, pero créanme, mis queridos fans, no dudaré en quitarle el sabor de la boca a Maki si intentan hacer trampa esta noche. ¡Esto es demasiado importante!

Gianna pauses, pointing at the back again and making the classic come on gesture in a grand fashion.

Gianna Rojas: ¡Vamos damas!.

With that she tosses the microphone back and moves to her corner to wait.

Darrion Hughes:Introducing first, the challenger… representing The Queens Of Chaos…from San Francisco, California… weighing in at 120 lbs… NASTY! NADIA! ALLEN!

Next… representing The Genesis Of Destruction…from Okinawa, Japan… weighing in at 110 lbs… THE ANGEL OF DESTRUCTION! MAKI! MEGUMI!

Winter Mae: The Zion Wrestling Viral Champion are on the line Gianna Rojas defending her title against the two challengers who are rivals to each other for a long time in Nadia Allen and Maki Megumi we will see tonight only one of them will walks away from the Destiny III with the Zion Wrestling Viral Champion!

[Kai Morgan]

The acne cuts backstage to a halfway in the Cotton Bowl stadium, and a shot of ‘The Dragon’ Travis Levitt strolling, swigging from a bottle of water, and a work out towel around his neck. As Travis comes around a corner, he grins when he sees Meliana Rodrigo approaching with a camera and her microphone. Travis pauses as she reaches him, and Melina grins again.

Meliana Rodrigo: Hey Travis. Got a few minutes to talk?

Travis Levitt: Absolutely, Meliana. Whats on your mind?

Meliana Rodrigo: Well, we all saw you make your Zion debut tonight in the Fight for Infinity Battle Royal. How are you feeling about your efforts tonight?

Travis Levitt: Honestly, I had a blast out there. For months now, ever since I came back to the business, I’ve been busting my ass to wrestle as many places and as much as possible. And the one place I kept eyeing up and thinking about trying was Zion. I’ve heard so many good things about the roster, the crowds, the opportunities here….so when Zion reached out to Steven Brody, and I heard about the chance, I jumped. And I’m glad I did.

There’s a momentary pause as Travis wipes some sweat off his face with his towel again, and then shifts to stand close to the microphone once more.

Travis Levitt: Look…..would it have been nice to win tonight? Of course. But I don’t wrestle looking just for wins and losses. I wrestle for a love of the game. And I can already tell that these Zion fans have just as much love of the game as I do…..and I can’t wait to come back and wrestle in front of them again.

Meliana Rodrigo: Come back? What do you mean?

Travis Levitt: Well, I enjoyed myself so much in just the build up, and the hype, and the excitement of the week, that before I even entered the ring tonight, I’d already left a nice present in the Zion offices. A fully signed and officially endorsed full-time contract for Zion Wrestling. So Zion fans, I hope you’re just as excited as I am……because its time to FLAME ON, ZION!

Travis fist pumps the camera and then roars out as a roar can be heard from the crowd. Travis is all smiles as he looks back at Meliana and gives her a big cheesy grin.

Travis Levitt: Now, I need to hit the showers. Its been a long weekend. But I’ll see you around, Mel. You enjoy the rest of Destiny.

And with a simple pat on her shoulder, Travis dashes off and leaves the scene to fade….to……black.

[Kai Morgan]

Vivian Blake: "Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is scheduled for one fall!"

Crowd: "ONE FALL!"

Vivian Blake: "And it is for the Zion Wrestling Internet Championship!"


The music plays. Melissa walks out. She goes down the ramp. Melissa climbs in the ring, climbs the ropes and smiles, putting her hands in the air and pointing to the audience.

Vivian Blake: "Introducing first, the challenger! From El Paso, Texas, weighing in at 141lbs. She is the Tasmellian Devil…MELISSA…TASMAN!"

Winter Mae: "It’s been a long, hard journey to get to this point, for Melissa Tasman. Weeks of fending off attacks from The Purge and dishing it right back at them, all for an opportunity to finally get a fair shot at that sought after Internet Championship."

The lights in the arena go out with a loud, mechanical thud as if a breaker’s being switched off. After a moment of silence, a woman’s voice comes over the speakers. As she speaks an emergency broadcast message appears on the tron.

"This is not a test. This is your emergency broadcast system announcing the commencement of the annual Purge sanctioned by Zion Wrestling. Commencing at the siren, any and all crime, including m̴̢͈͈̳̑́ų̶̦̫͐́̔̓ŗ̸̙͖͕͎͇͍̺͎͉̈́̾́̏́̔͆̕͠d̸̨͎̗̙̏͋̉͊͝ͅe̸̛̤̫̯̦̭͖̿͌͗̒̂̀̉͒r̶̗̭̟̤̞̜͉̠͎̼͌̃, will be legal. Police, fire, and emergency medical services will be unavailable until the Purge concludes. Blessed be Zion Wrestling and America: a nation reborn. May God be with you all…"

The siren sounds, wailing throughout the arena at an almost deafening tone. As it continues, the tron comes to life with a pair of black boots, walking down a dark corridor. A silhouetted figure in a knee length coat, wearing a flashing red neon lightup Purge mask approaches from down the hall. A leisurely pace as they spread their arms out and seem to almost be strutting along to a tune only they can hear. The figure stops in front of the camera, the mask lights blinking rapidly before becoming steady as the figure tilts their head at the camera.



As the music begins, the figure suddenly stabs a knife at the camera, bringing it to static, blood slowly running down the frame. The opening synthesizers to "Sleeps Society" kick in as the stage lights up, not itself, but with more variations of the neon purge masks. There’s all different colors. Blue…yellow…green…pink…orange. It becomes apparent that the masks belong to individuals standing on a line on the stage, staring down at the ring. At the center of the stage, the same red mask from the tron appears with the figure looking down and lifting their head slowly. Just then, Lawrence Taylor belts out.

♫SLEEPS SOCIETY!!!!♫

The guitar drop kicks in and the stage lights up again, revealing the entirety of The Purge on the stage, as the ones wearing the masks. Calvin Faye under the green, The Silver Brothers under the yellow and blue, SHIRO under the orange, and Tala Divata under the pink. Under the red mask, of course, is Jack Morrison, dressed to the T in a “big match white” variation of his gear. Together, The Purge remove their masks as Jack Morrison and SHIRO make their way down to the ring.

Vivian Blake: "Her opponent, from Southampton, England. Weighing in at 222lbs. Representing “The Purge!” He is the Zion Wrestling Internet Champion…JACK…”THE RIPPER”...MORRISON!!!"

Kyle Cassidy: "Jack Morrison has had a stranglehold on the Internet Championship, Winter. Eighty six days in his current reign as champion. He has surpassed his first run of 71 days. In that first run, he tied Ricky Rodriguez for the most defenses at 8. The Ripper already sits with 7 defenses in this run alone. It could be 8 after tonight if he can put away The Tasmelian Devil. Either way you look at it, Melissa Tasman has a hell of a fight on her hands if she wants to fulfill her own Destiny here tonight."

Jack Morrison stalks his way down the ramp at a leisurely pace but a sense of purpose in his step; in no hurry but not wasting any time in getting to ringside. He climbs up the steps and up the turnbuckle, unclasping the Internet Championship from around his waist and hoists it up, watching the crowd with those dark eyes. He climbs down to the mat and moves to the far side of the ring where he paces back and forth. He hands the title off to the referee, never taking his eyes off of Melissa Tasman.



The match begins with Tasman and Morrison coming out of their corners, talking trash at each other. Things get heated to the point of Tasman slapping Morrison across the face in which he responds by simply pie facing her back. Tasman goes to fire back but Morrison explodes into a series of right hands on her, rocking her back into the corner. He ignores the referee’s warning, barely saving himself from a DQ at the count of 4 by sending Tasman crashing into the opposite corner with a hard Irish Whip. Tasman slams into the turnbuckles and Morrison comes right in behind her with a back splash, throwing all of his weight against her, catching her by the head then to follow up with a Running Bulldog. He goes for a cover.

TW–

And pulls her shoulder up off the mat, prompting a boo from the crowd. The referee throws his hands up, asking Morrison what he’s doing. Morrison insists that Tasman kicked out and has a lot of fight in her. He pulls her to her feet and throws on an arm wringer, twisting her arm and occasionally yanking on the shoulder. Tasman tries a few times to reach for his wrists but each time she does, Morrison twists her arm to reaffirm his hold. She goes down to a knee as Morrison starts raining elbow shots down on her arm. Morrison turns to taunt the crowd and that’s when Tasman sees her window and snatches him by the wrist, standing up to reverse the arm wringer. She goes right to giving him a taste of his own medicine, wrenching and hammering on his arm. Tasman even adds more to her counterassault, driving her own shoulder into his. She pushes Morrison into the ropes, whipping him across the ring but misses the lariat she shoots for and Morrison comes back off, shoulder blocking her to the mat. He rolls his shoulder while Tasman catches her breath but goes right back to work, snatching up one of her legs and starts stomping on the inside of the knee. Tasman cries out in pain as Morrison works her leg until he steps over, looking for possibly a Figure Four but she gets her foot on his ass and shoves him into the ropes. As soon as she sits up, he comes off with a Running Boot to the face and drops down for a cover.

This time, Tasman kicks out of her own accord! Morrison laughs as he sits up and stands over Tasman, taunting her with slaps to the face.

Jack "The Ripper" Morrison: "You give up yet, darling? Eh?"

More slaps to the face as Tasman starts slowly getting to her feet, nursing her knee.

Jack "The Ripper" Morrison: "You fucking give up yet?! You think you got what it takes?!"

He slaps her again, going harder this time before grabbing her by the hair and rocking her with a forearm. Tasman knocks his arm away before the referee even finishes warning about the hair and gives Morrison a forearm right back. Morrison grabs his jaw, fuming and knocks her in the jaw again. Tasman stumbles back, stumbling on her leg but she comes back and hits him again! Morrison rolls his jaw and curses, unleashing a barrage of forearms to Tasman over and over and over before coming off the ropes. He jumps in, looking for a “White Chapel Necktie” (Slingblade) but Tasman pops off the mat and knocks him out of the air with a Dropkick! Dallas pops as both wrestlers get to their feet and Morrison rushes in for a short range Clothesline but Tasman ducks, hits the ropes and takes Morrison down with a Tornado DDT! She pops up again, getting some feeling back in her leg and slides in with a Forearm to Morrison’s jaw and hooks the leg!

Morrison kicks out! Tasman goes to lock him right into a Cross Armbar, wrenching back on his shoulder, looking for a submission but Morrison manages to rotate around, trying to get his foot on the ropes. He just barely catches it with his toe and the referee forces the break. Morrison rolls out of the ring, shaking out his arm. He doesn’t see Tasman moving to the corner and climbing the turnbuckles, where she waits for him to turn before coming down with a Diving Moonsault, crashing down and sending them both to the floor! Tasman scrambles to her feet, pulling Morrison up and rolling him back into the ring. She climbs up onto the apron, looking to get back in when Morrison makes it to his feet and catches her with a Running Knee Lift that almost sends her back to the floor but she holds onto the ropes. Morrison steps out onto the apron with her again and pulls her into position, lifting her up for a Powerbomb. The referee, even the crowd beg him not to do it as he steps off the apron and drops Tasman spine first right onto the apron!

Winter Mae: "That could have caused irreparable damage to the spine of Tasman! What the hell is wrong with this man?!"

Kyle Cassidy: "Jack Morrison called Melissa Tasman a blight on the Mayhem brand and said he’ll be the cure! He’s dishing out the vaccine in a lethal dose!"

Jack "The Ripper" Morrison: "Where’s it at, Melissa? Eh? Where’s that bravado now?!"

Morrison slaps Tasman across the back of the head as she lays on the floor. The referee starts to count and Morrison climbs on the apron, considering looking for a countout victory but he sees something or someone in the front row that makes him get that cruel little smile on his face. He climbs back down to the floor.

Referee: ”Jack! Bring the match back in the ring! C’mon!”

Jack "The Ripper" Morrison: "Fuck off!”

Morrison snaps at the official before walking up to a family in the crowd, all wearing Melissa Tasman shirts.

Jack "The Ripper" Morrison: "Well, well, now! What’ve we got here?!”

Winter Mae: "Oh my god, what is he doing?"

Kyle Cassidy: "That’s Melissa Tasman’s family! Her parents, her brother and sisters!"

Jack "The Ripper" Morrison: "C’mere, Mel!"

Morrison reaches down and grabs Tasman, yanking her up to her knees in front of him, facing her family. Tasman cries out in pain as he yanks her head back by the hair.

Jack "The Ripper" Morrison: "Look here, love! The whole bloody family’s here to see you!"

He punches her in the side of the head. Tasman’s parents object to Morrison’s cruel treatment of their daughter. Her brother and youngest sister shout at him to knock it off as the second youngest sister looks on in horror.

Jack "The Ripper" Morrison: "They’re all here! To watch! You! Fail!"

Morrison says this between more punches to the head before he grabs Tasman and violently throws her against the apron.

Referee: "Get it back in the ring! Now!"

Jack "The Ripper" Morrison: "Stuff it up your arse, you barstard!"

Morrison throws two fingers up at the official; the English “middle finger”, before he grabs Tasman up and violently throws her right into the barricade right in front of her family, causing them to jump back. Her sister, Gwen, begins to sob uncontrollably as she leans against their father. Her other sister, Sophitia helps console her, while Tasman’s brother Lucas shouts insults to Morrison. Morrison jerks back his fist, causing Lucas to flinch back.

Jack "The Ripper" Morrison: ”I’ll knock your fucking head off, cunt!”

Morrison grabs Tasman and throws her into the apron again…then into the barricade…then into the apron…then back into the barricade!!

Jack "The Ripper" Morrison: "Look at her now, eh? Eh?! Look at her now!!!"

Morrison pulls Tasman, who can barely stand up onto her knees again and points to her as he taunts her family.

Jack "The Ripper" Morrison: "HAVE A FUCKING LOOK AT YOUR HERO NOW!!!!!"

Winter Mae: "This man is sick!"

Kyle Cassidy: "I have to agree, Winter! Enough is enough!"

Morrison’s not finished yet, as he puts a finger up to Tasman’s family.

Jack "The Ripper" Morrison: "Waitwaitwaitwait…you came here to see wrestling!"

He picks Tasman up and drops her across the barricade before stepping back and lariats her so hard, she almost goes over into their laps. Morrison pulls her back though and hooks her arm over his head before hitting a Snap Suplex right onto the ringside floor, then gets up onto his knee and yells right in the face of Tasman’s family. He hears the referee now, halfway through the count to ten and climbs up onto the apron, about to settle for a countout victory before looking down at his opponent. He shakes his head.

Jack "The Ripper" Morrison: "No no no no no, I’m not gonna give you that. Not another chance to run your mouth. C’mere Mel!"

Winter Mae: "Oh for the love of god, just stop this!"

Kyle Cassidy: "You’ve made your message clear. Stop it!"

Morrison looks to Tasman’s parents and siblings again.

Jack "The Ripper" Morrison: "Watch this!"

He grabs Tasman and gets her back in the ring, sliding in behind her. Morrison posts back in the corner and watches her, waiting, ready to strike. Tasman painfully climbs to her feet and Morrison rushes, stepping in for “Stabbing In The Dark” (Superkick) but Tasman just barely slips under his incoming foot and gets behind him. Morrison spins around right into a “Sitout Facebuster” by Tasman!

T–

Morrison gets the shoulder up again! Tasman climbs the turnbuckle and calls for the “Tasmelian Devil” but as she comes twisting off the apron, Morrison gets his knees up right into her back again! Tasman bounces off his legs and lands hard on the mat, kicking her feet against it in pain as Morrison pulls her back over for a pin attempt!

Tasman throws the shoulder up and pushes Morrison off of her. She rolls away but Morrison’s on her again, pulling her up to her feet. They start trading right hands back and forth with Tasman trying to give it everything she’s got but Morrison’s proving to be resilient as he is wicked. He rocks Tasman with a punch and winds back up for a big final blow but Tasman backs up and hits the ropes, hitting a Flying Forearm that sends Morrison back into the ropes. He bounces off and comes off with “STABBING IN THE DARK” (SUPERKICK) TO TASMAN AND SHE GOES DOWN!! Morrison collapses on top of her.

THR–

TASMAN KICKS OUT!! Morrison looks up at the referee in disbelief, starting to argue with him as Tasman gets up to her feet. She rushes in for another Flying Forearm but Morrison shoves the referee towards her! Tasman has enough instinct to pull her arm back and catch the referee with both of them bumping chest before she shoves him out of the way just as Morrison comes in for another “Stabbing In The Dark” but Tasman catches him by the leg and spins him around, locking him into a Full Nelson Sleeper! Morrison struggles and pushes back, slamming Tasman’s back into the turnbuckles to break her grip on him! He stumbles free, turns and comes running back at her but Tasman throws her legs up and catches him in the face. Morrison’s dazed enough that Tasman climbs up onto the top turnbuckles again but not enough time for her to capitalize as Morrison catches her and runs into the ropes! Tasman falls down onto the turnbuckle and Morrison immediately grabs her, pulling her out with her feet on the turnbuckle, head on his shoulder and he drops down! “STRAIGHT TO HELL” (TOWER OF LONDON)!!! He drags her out to the mat for the pin but he stops, looking down to see she still has some life in her. Morrison’s fuming now as he runs his hands down his face and moves back to the corner, waiting for her to sit up. He hunches down and readies his arm.

Winter Mae: "Oh no, here it comes. He hits this and it’s over!"

Kyle Cassidy: "Melissa Tasman is very familiar with this maneuver! She’s been on the receiving end of it numerous times!"

Morrison comes rushing in as Tasman makes it to her knees. “DEAR BOSS” (HIDDEN BLA—) NO!!!!! TASMAN FALLS BACK, LEANING UNDER THE STRIKE!! Morrison swings past her! Tasman comes up onto her knees again! Morrison rushes in from behind!!! “DEAR BOSS” (HIDDEN BLADE) RIGHT TO THE BACK OF THE— NO?!?! TASMAN FALLS FORWARD UNDER THE ARM AGAIN!! Morrison stumbles past her, back facing the challenger!! Tasman hops to her feet and springs off the mat!! POISONRANA SPIKES MORRISON’S HEAD INTO THE MAT!! Morrison repels up onto his knees, looking starry eyed. Tasman hops to her feet. She sees the champion’s position. Figures fuck it! She runs in with her arm ready! “DEAR BOSS” (HIDDEN BLADE) RIGHT TO THE FACE OF JACK MORRISON!!!! It more than grazes him and it’s not quite a perfect execution but Morrison eats enough of it and goes down!!! Tasman looks around at the roaring crowd and carries herself up the turnbuckle as fast as she can!! She leaps off! “TASMELIAN DEVIL” (CORKSCREW BODY SPLASH) TO THE RIPPER!!! TASMAN COVERS!!

Kyle Cassidy: "SHE DID IT!!!"

Winter Mae: "WE HAVE A NEW CHAMPION!!"

Vivian Blake: "Here is your winner….AAAAAAAAAND NEEEEEEEEEW…ZION WRESTLING INTERNET CHAMPION…MELISSA…TASMAN!!!!"

“I’m Good” by David Guetta and Bebe Rexha fills the arena, almost drowned out by the fans loud cheers as Tasman sits up, almost in disbelief to hear her music as the referee brings the Internet Championship in. Sprawled out on the mat, unsure of what even happened, Morrison weakly reaches for the belt but the referee presents it to Tasman and Shiro helps Morrison out of the ring, trying to help him clear his head as Tasman raises the belt with tears in her eyes. Morrison looks up into the ring with his eyes clouded over and falls back onto the ramp, jaw dropped as he sits and watches. Shiro tries to help him up but it takes the rest of The Purge coming down to help him to his feet and keep him from trying to go back into the ring, telling him the match is over. Tasman stands, looking ready for a possible attack before she sees The Purge helping Morrison to the back and resumes her hard earned celebration, eventually leaving the ring with her new title to go meet her family. She straddles the barricade and throws an arm around her sister, Gwen, hoisting the title up in her other hand as camera lights flash all around.

WINNER: MELISSA TASMAN (#ANDNEW)
RESULT: PINFALL (TASMELIAN DEVIL)

[Kai Morgan]

A few minutes before their title defence, Wasteland Tag Team Champions Thotline Miami are in the backstage area, joined by backstage correspondent Devyn Mitchell. The defending champs are dressed in a white variant of their ring gear with black accents and their championship belts worn proudly around their waists.

Devyn Mitchell:
“Cindy, Taylor, great to see you both here. I'd like to ask some questions for the fans. Schadenfreude have been a thorn in your side for awhile now, but their persistence has made them closer and closer to winning your titles. How do you feel about this match where the belts are on the line?”

She would say, before pointing the microphone at Cindy.

Cindy Collins::
“Well, to tell the truth, we feel great about it. As much as we dislike them, Schadenfreude are a team we’re comfortable being in the ring with. We know how they wrestle and we know we've got the tools to beat ‘em.”

Taylor leans in between Cindy and Devin, adding her two cents before Devyn can ask the next question.

Taylor Gibson::
“Yeah! And we're not concerned about putting the belts up for grabs either. It's Destiny! The whole reason we fought so hard to win them is to defend them on shows like this!”

Devyn Mitchell
“Heidi Krauss is always someone that you have to keep an eye on. Are you worried that she might cause some interference to help Schadenfreude?”

Cindy Collins::
“Of course. She's the biggest variable, she's the reason we need to have eyes in the back of our heads. But, as champions, that's something you have to account for and we have.”

Devyn Mitchell
“Of course, if you manage to beat Schadenfreude, who do you think are going to be the next big hurdle for Thotline Miami?”

Cindy Collins::
“No idea.”

Taylor Gibson::
“You can't look past the opponent that's in front of you, Devyn, that's how you lose championships.”

Cindy Collins::
“Exactly. Whatever’s next is tomorrow's problem, the only team in our sights right now is Schadenfreude.”

Devyn Mitchell
“That's good to hear, very excited to see you out there tonight. Good luck to you both!”

She says with a warm smile to the Wasteland tag team champions.

We cut backstage to find Dietrich and Werner Kühn, Schadenfreude, along with their manager Heidi Krauss standing in front of a German flag backdrop. The brothers are almost standing to attention with their arms behind their backs with Krauss standing in between them as the three of them are focused on the camera in front of them.

Werner Kühn: Tonight… Schadenfreude achieves their destiny… quite fitting given the name of tonight’s special event, ja?

Werner briefly turns his attention to his brother who nods in agreement.

Dietrich Kühn: Ja. As fitting as it was that our opponents for this evening, stooped to the low that so many Americans tend to do when they referenced the war.

Krauss scoffs and shakes her head.

Werner Kühn: And yet we are painted as the villains because we disagree with the way they carry themselves as the champions? At the end of the day though, you two are not the only ones who are proud of where you come from. We, as Germans, are proud of where we came from. We are proud to be representing our great nation at Zion’s biggest event.

Dietrich Kühn: And much like other typical Americans, you happily bring up the negative aspects of other countries… where your country is arguably one of the worst on the planet. Mein Bruder und ich could stand here and list off the many problems your country has, and these are not problems from your past, but problems that exist currently.

Werner Kühn: Indeed. But we are of a higher class than that. We do not lower ourselves to such pettiness.

Dietrich Kühn: So we shall simply say one thing. Tonight? The Wasteland Tag Team Championships will have a new home. In the hands of Werner and Dietrich Kühn.

Krauss then smiles as she places both of her hands on the shoulder of both brothers.

Heidi Krauss: Es lebe die Schadenfreude!

Krauss then begins to walk off camera as Dietrich and Werner follow behind her as we cut elsewhere.

[Kai Morgan]

The lights in the arena go out as the opening to Ludwig van Beethoven's "Symphony No. 5" begins to play and we see the silhouettes of Werner and Dietrich Kühn standing side by side on the stage with their arms behind their backs. After a few moments, the lights return to normal and the Kühn brothers begin to saunter their way down the ramp, looking around at the fans in attendance with looks of disgust on their faces and with raised eyebrows as the camera briefly shifts to ringside where we see their manager, Heidi Krauss with a microphone in hand.

Heidi Krauss: Meine Damen und Herren! Making their way to the ring! Sie sind das größte Tag-Team der Welt! Schadenfreude!

Once the Kühn brothers reach the bottom of the ramp, they make their way up the steel steps and walk along the ring apron before wiping their feet and then they climb through the ropes. Moving towards the center of the ring, they place their arms behind their backs again, almost like they're standing to attention as "Symphony No. 5" fades out.

"Call Me" begins to play through the speakers and Taylor and Cindy walk out onto the stage. Taylor points her arms down the ramp, pointing with finger guns and clicking her thumbs as if to fire. The pair exchange a smile before running down the ramp to the ring. Taylor slides in immediately, as Cindy makes her way around to the side, climbing up to sit on the apron. Taylor gets up and stands on the ropes behind Cindy, posing for the crowd. Taylor runs to a far turnbuckle, climbing to the top and posing again, as Cindy enters the ring and poses in the center.

Crybaby: The following contest is scheduled for one fall!... and is for… the Zion Wrestling Wasteland Tag Team Championships! Introducing first… accompanied to the ring by Heidi Krauss… weighing in tonight at four hundred and forty pounds… Dietrich & Werner Kühn. THEY! ARE! SCHAAAAADENFREUDEEE!

Dietrich and Werner look around at the crowd who are booing, paying them no mind as Crybaby continues her introduction.

Crybaby: And their opponents… coming to us tonight from Miami, Florida… weighing in tonight at two hundred and twenty two pounds… they are the reigning!... and defending! Zion Wrestling Wasteland Tag Team Champions! Taylor Gibson and Cindy Collins… THOTLINE! MIIIIIAMIIIIII!



Thotline takes a moment to pose with their tag titles for the crowd before the official goes over to them and asks for the belts, which they hand over. The official then goes to the center of the ring and raises them high before handing them to Crybaby, and then ringing the bell!

Werner starts us off for Schadenfreude, as Cindy starts for Thotline. The two circle one another before Cindy goes to lock up with Werner who ducks out of the way and kicks Cindy’s leg out from under her, sending her crashing to the mat on her back. Werner then grabs that leg and quickly locks in a kneebar!

Cindy pulls herself towards the ropes, getting within arms reach until Werner pulls her back from the ropes and towards his corner, tagging in Dietrich who instantly gets to work on Cindy’s leg, dropping a knee on the inside of Cindy’s leg, continuing to work on her knee as Werner gets out of the ring.

Cindy is holding onto her knee at this point as Dietrich begins to work on her leg, grabbing it and slamming it to the mat before raining down strikes with his knee to the inside of hers. Cindy cries out in pain as Dietrich continues to work on the knee, as Taylor reaches out, trying to make a tag but Dietrich won’t let her get anywhere close. Pulling her away from Taylor and locking her in a figure four leglock!

Cindy cries out in pain as Dietrich pulls back, keeping the hold on tight as the official asks Cindy if she wants to give up. Cindy tells him she doesn’t and tries to pull herself towards the ropes, attempting to roll over and reverse the pressure of the hold onto Dietrich!

…

AND SHE DOES!

SHE MANAGES TO ROLL OVER AND REVERSE THE PRESSURE ON TO DIETRICH BEFORE LETTING GO OF THE HOLD, AND HOLDING ONTO HER KNEE!

Taylor is getting the crowd fired up now, looking for the hot tag from Cindy!... and as Cindy goes to tag her in, Taylor gets pulled off the ring apron! Werner Kühn pulled her off of the ring apron and threw her into the steel steps at ringside! Cindy looks at Taylor on the floor as she gets grabbed and thrown backwards by Dietrich with a German suplex that stacks her on the back of her head!

The official goes to check on her, as Werner tags himself in, and the two hit her with their Assisted Spinebuster/Penalty Kick combo, and Werner goes for the pin!

ONE!

TWO!

T- NO!

KICKOUT AT TWO!

Cindy throws her arm up at two and Werner wastes little time, grabbing her up and looking to hit the Kraftbomb… but Cindy reverses it, landing on her leg but falling down, clutching her knee! Werner sees this and grabs her leg and drops back, hitting a leg DDT that causes more pain to Cindy’s already hurt leg before tagging out to Dietrich once more. Dietrich now, wasting little time, goes to her and locks in Scharfer Schütze!

Cindy cries out in pain as this hold gets tighter and tighter and Dietrich leans further back, putting more pressure onto the knees and lower back of Collins!

BUT HE LEANS TOO FAR BACK, GIVING CINDY AN OPENING TO SWEEP OUT THE OTHER LEG OF DIETRICH AND BREAK THE HOLD!

Cindy now, sensing this is the opening she needs, begins to crawl towards Taylor… BUT WERNER GRABS HER LEG! Cindy hops up to her feet AND NAILS HIM WITH AN ENZIGURI AND MAKES THE HOT TAG TO TAYLOR!

The crowd goes wild as Taylor gets into the ring, dropping both brothers with repeated clotheslines and kicks, nailing Werner with a dropkick that sends him out of the ring before turning her attention back to Dietrich, nailing him with a SUPERKICK FOLLOWED BY THE VAPORWAVE DDT, BEFORE MAKING THE COVER!

ONE!

TWO!

T- NO! BROKEN UP BY WERNER! Werner goes back out and to the corner before Taylor can get any measure of revenge on him for breaking the pin. She turns back to Dietrich and picks him up, chopping him before dropping him with a dropkick, then picking him up again and shooting him into a neutral corner, working over him with chops and kicks as the crowd gets her fired up!

Taylor pulls him out of the corner… AND DIETRICH NAILS HER WITH A NASTY ELBOW TO THE SIDE OF THE HEAD THAT HAS HER STUMBLING BACK!

…

AND TAYLOR ACCIDENTALLY TAGS CINDY BACK IN!

TAYLOR REALIZES WHAT SHE’S DONE AND TRIES TO PROTEST IT BUT THE OFFICIAL TELLS HER TO GET OUT OF THE RING AS WERNER BLASTS HER IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD WITH A RUNNING EUROPEAN UPPERCUT THAT SENDS HER TO THE MAT! Cindy tries to fight back, hitting Werner with forearms and chops but is taken out from behind by Dietrich with a chop block!

Werner grabs her now, picking her up in a powerbomb position as Dietrich climbs to the middle rope and hits her with a diving european uppercut! Lang Lebe Schadenfreude connects and Dietrich makes the pin!

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!!!!



Crybaby: The winners of this match...and NEW Wasteland Tag Team Champions...Schadefreude!

[Kai Morgan]

Vivian Blake: Ladies and gentlemen, the following match is scheduled for one fall!

Crowd: ONE FALL!!

Vivian Blake: Introducing first, hailing from Chicago, Illinois…

Silver and light purple lights flash throughout the arena as “Unconditionally” begins playing over the sound system. As soon as Katy Perry sings the word “Unconditional”, Teresa Morgan comes out from the back with a huge smile on her face. The crowd erupts in cheers upon seeing her, and she starts making her way down the ramp. As she passes by the fans, she gives as many of them high fives and hugs as she can, taking a couple of pictures with kids that ask her to do so. Once she reaches the ring, Teresa slips between the ropes and throws her fist into the air for a few seconds before going to her corner to wait for the match to get underway.

Vivian Blake: She is…TERESA MORGAN!!

The arena lights went out, leaving the audience in darkness and silence for a moment before the speakers came on with the sound of a radio turning channels until coming to a stop on what sounded to be a news report.

Reporter: "After weeks of unexplained incidents, the ominous unknown woman is still on the rise. After little evidence has been found, a young boy states that he survived one of the suspect's attacks and bravely tells his story."

Boy: "I had a bad dream and I woke up in the middle of the night."

The video tron turned on with flashes of a dark bedroom and an open window. The curtain billowed softly in the breeze.

Boy: "I saw that for some reason the window was open, even though I remember it being closed before I went to bed. I got up and shut it once more. Afterwards, I simply crawled under my covers and tried to get back to sleep. That's when I had a strange feeling, like someone was watching me. I looked up, and nearly jumped out of my bed. There, in the little ray of light, illuminating from between my curtains, were a pair of two eyes. These weren't regular eyes; they were dark, ominous eyes. They were bordered in black and... just plain out terrified me."

The screen became jarred and jerky with flashes of a woman’s eyes; familiar eyes to those who watched Zion regularly. The eyes of a certain Jestress that gleamed with an unhinged sense of glee within them.

Boy: "That's when I saw her mouth. A long, horrendous smile that made every hair on my body stand up. The figure stood there, watching me."

More flashes across the scream focused on her black painted lips, peeling back in a deranged smile as soft, eerie giggling echoed over the rest of the story being told.

Boy: "Finally, after what seemed like forever, she said it. A simple phrase, but said in a way only a madwoman could speak. She said,"

J I N X:: "'Go… To… Sleep…'"

Boy: "I let out a scream, that's what sent her at me. She lunged at me. She jumped on top of my bed. I fought her back; I kicked, I punched, I rolled around, trying to knock her off me. That's when my dad busted in. The girl went for my dad like an animal. Clawing. Biting. She probably would've finished him off, if one of the neighbors hadn't alerted the police."

The screen flashed again with Jinx looming over the camera, shrieking like a madwoman in the darkness.

Boy: "They drove into the parking lot, and ran towards the door. The girl turned and ran down the hallway. I heard a smash, like glass breaking. As I came out of my room, I saw the window that was pointing towards the back of my house was broken. I looked out it to see her vanish into the distance. I can tell you one thing, I will never forget that face. Those cold, evil eyes, and that psychotic smile. They will never leave my head."



The video tron suddenly went black with eerie giggling echoing throughout the arena as the acoustic intro to “Sweet Dreams Are Made Of Screams” began to play. As the song shifted into the piano version, red and blue strobe lights began to flicker across the stage, not unlike police lights. As the song slowly built up, a radio dispatch joined in.

Dispatch: "All units, all units. Be advised, I repeat, be advised. Suspect is at large and considered extremely dangerous. Approach with extreme caution."

As the music began to swell into the main part, a spotlight swept across the stage, mimicking that of a police helicopter as a cloud of smoke covered the stage.

Radio: "Dispatch, this is Eagle Eye. I have eyes on the suspect. Repeat, I have eyes on the suspect."

The music reached it’s main riff as, from within the cloud, Jinx, The Jestress rose into view from a previously prone position on the floor, garbed in a white variation of her gear, trimmed in black. She lifted her hood, black lips peeling back into a maniacal smile as the camera zoomed in on her.

Vivian Blake: "Her opponent…coming from…Anywhere…and Everywhere. Making her way to the ring at this time…Jinx…The Jestress!"

With the helicopter light remaining on her, Jinx made her way towards the ring, almost as if she were dancing with the music. She stepped and twirled in circles as she neared the ring where Teresa Morgan stood until finally reaching the apron. There, she stopped, placing her hands upon it to smile through the ropes at her before slowly stepping towards the stairs and sliding her hand along the edge of the ring. Once she reached the steps, she crawled up them on her hands and feet, watching Teresa the entire time as she crawled like a cat towards the ringpost on the other end. Once she reached that post, she wrapped her fingers along it and pulled herself around to the other side of the apron and leaned in through the middle and bottom ropes as she slowly pulled her hood back, revealing even more of her maniacal grin aimed at Teresa. Jinx crawled through the ropes and to the middle of the ring where she rested on her knees, slapping the mat and throwing her head back with a banshee like shriek that was like her level of calmness went from 1 to about 60 before dropping right back down as she settled down on her hands and knees again. She grinned at Teresa again while she backcrawled to the corner behind her and pulled herself up on the ropes until she was squatting down. Slowly rising, she removed her hoodie and resumed her squatting position. Waiting. Watching. Like a patient killer.



As soon as the bell sounded, Teresa charged at Jinx, looking for a clothesline from Hell. Unfortunately for Teresa, Jinx saw it coming and ducked under the woman’s arm before nailing her with a hard dropkick to the back of her knee, taking her down to one. She caught her with a vicious chop to the back of her neck, causing Morgan to let out a small cry of pain from the impact. Jinx ran at the ropes, launching herself back towards Teresa to try and catch her with a running lariat, but Teresa managed to make herself small in order to avoid the move. Morgan got back to her feet as Jinx stopped herself in her tracks just barely behind the other woman, turning back to face her just to be met with a headbutt that left her stunned.

Winter Mae: Neither of these women are going to back down. Teresa has been waiting to get her hands on Jinx again.

Kyle Cassidy: Now that she has, she’s not going to let up if she can help it.

Jinx shook her head and smirked as she looked at Teresa with an eerie smile on her face. The look on the woman’s face unnerved Teresa a bit, but she shook it off, keeping a close eye on her opponent. Jinx stalked around Teresa, the eerie smile never leaving her face even as she charged at the woman, hitting her with a belly-to-belly suplex, sending her flying across the ring! Teresa got to her feet slowly, her eyes narrowing in Jinx’s direction. Teresa ran towards Jinx, hitting a beautiful, running DDT on her. She spiked the woman down hard then quickly climbed the ropes in the corner. Teresa leapt off and in Jinx’s direction, connecting with a brutal shooting star press!

Crowd: THIS IS AWESOME! THIS IS AWESOME! THIS IS AWESOME!

Teresa climbed back to her feet, a satisfied smirk on her face as she did so. At least, until she saw Jinx moving around and…laughing! Morgan made her way over to Jinx and pulled her up before throwing her into the corner. Jinx slammed against the turnbuckles hard, and Teresa ran after her, nailing her with a Kaio kick. Teresa lifted Jinx onto the turnbuckle before climbing the ropes, looking for a superplex. Just as she got the move set-up, Jinx jabbed her thumb into Teresa’s eye. The other woman cried out before Jinx shoved her off of the ropes, causing her to slam back against the mat. Jinx grinned as she stood up on the top turnbuckle before leaping off, hitting Teresa with a diving moonsault! She quickly pinned Morgan with a smirk on her face.

ONE…

T-

A brief look of frustration passed over Jinx’s face though it disappeared almost as quickly as it appeared. The woman got back to her feet with a fistful of Teresa’s hair. She pulled the other woman up, ignoring the referee’s warning about the hair as she did. Keeping the handful of Teresa’s hair, Jinx smashed the woman’s face into her knee with a sickening thud. She repeated the action not just a second time but a third and fourth before finally releasing Teresa’s hair, leaving the woman stumbling from the repeated knee shots. Teresa shook her head but was quickly met with a springboard clothesline across the throat that forced her down to the mat. She coughed as she slowly pulled herself up, but Jinx wasn’t done with her yet! Jinx grabbed Teresa and nailed her with a vicious Curtain Jerk! She swiftly hooked one of Morgan’s legs and pinned her.

ONE…

TWO…

THR-

Winter Mae: Close call for Teresa there!

Kyle Cassidy: Jinx almost stole this one!

Both women got back to their feet, Teresa a little slower than Jinx in the process. Both were breathing somewhat heavily from the duration of the match though Teresa seemed to be breathing harder than Jinx was. Jinx and Teresa circled each other for a few moments, neither of them taking their eyes off of one another. Morgan suddenly charged at Jinx, looking to grab her for a spinebuster. Jinx managed to wiggle out of Teresa’s grasp and nailed her with a roundhouse kick to the abdomen. She grabbed Teresa and went for a devastating DDT, but the other woman managed to counter it into a reverse DDT, forcing her down hard. Teresa backed up into the corner, waiting for Jinx to get up before charging at her, hitting a vicious 1997 CT01 that dropped Jinx to the mat! Teresa quickly pinned the woman, and the referee slid down to the mat to make the count.

ONE…

TWO…

THREE…!!



Vivian Blake: Ladies and gentlemen, here is your winner…TERESA MORGAN!!

Morgan celebrates as we fade out!

WINNER: TERESA MORGAN
RESULT: PINFALL (1997 CT01)

[Kai Morgan]

♫I'VE BEEN SEARCHING FOR AN EXIT♫
♫BUT I’M LOST INSIDE MY HEAD♫
♫WHERE I SPENT EVERY WAKING MOMENT♫
♫WISHING I WAS DEAD!♫

The lights go out, shrouding the arena in darkness as the opening riff to "Pittsburgh" tears through the speakers. As soon as the guitar riff starts, the video wall comes to life with the "BEHOLD THE KINGDOM" banner while the back wall screen comes to life with a combined static and barbed wire design.

♫For a few minutes get me away from here!♫
♫For a few minutes wipe away my tears!♫
♫For I am lost right now as the ocean deep!♫
♫I am low my friend and how my heart does sink!♫
♫Yeah I am lost right now as the ocean deep!♫
♫I AM LOW MY FRIEND AND HOW MY HEART DOES SINK!♫

The cameras find Morgan Payne walking - no, storming through the backstage section, fired up and ready for a fight. Hair pinned back into tight braids. Hands taped. She looks ready to kick some ass as she moves down the hall of the arena, approaching Gorilla position.

♫It's like there's cancer in my blood!♫
♫It's like there's water in my lungs!♫
♫And I can't take another step!♫
♫Please tell me I am not undone!♫

♫It's like there's fire in my skin!♫
♫And I'm drowning from within!♫
♫I can't take another breath!♫
♫Please tell me I am not undone!♫

The camera follows her as she reaches the steps to the entrance area. Rolling her shoulders to stay loose, she steps through the tunnel and out onto the stage to a loud pop from the crowd, revealing a black t-shirt that reads #FUCKFILLMORE. She soaks in the reception as she opens out her arms and strikes The Kingdom pose before approaching the ring with a wolfish grin on her lips.

Vivian Blake: "The following contest is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, representing The Kingdom! From The Burgh…this is…MORGAN PAYNE!!"

♫I've been searching for an exit!♫
♫But I'm lost inside my head!♫
♫Where I spend every waking moment!♫
♫Wishing this would end!♫
♫I can't take another step!♫
♫I cannot live inside my mind!♫
♫I can't face another day!♫
♫I am so fucking tired!♫

♫For I am lost right now as the ocean deep!♫
♫I am low my friend and how my heart does sink!♫
♫Yeah I am lost right now as the ocean deep!♫
♫I am low my friend and how my heart does sink!♫

Once she reaches ringside, Morgan takes a running jump up onto the apron. She stands to face the crowd for a moment, looking over the masses with that same smirk on her lips. Morgan steps into the ring and climbs a turnbuckle, throwing her hood back and strikes her pose once more. She drops down and backs into her corner, and proceeds to pull on the ropes then kick a leg up onto the top turnbuckle to stay loose as she waits.



The lights go out. The haunting ballad of “Lux Aeterna” begins to play. As the song plays the lights don’t come back on, the haunting ballad continues to play. Finally the fans are given relief as the lights in the arena come back to life.

Standing at the top of the stage wearing a Dallas Cowboys Troy Aiken jersey is Zachary Porter.
“Welcome Home” chants break out. Him “pandering” to the home state crowd does more than enough to get more cheers on Zach’s side. He stands there to soak in the moment. He urges the crowd to cheer louder. They do. He walks down the long ramp way with extra pep in his step. Once he reaches the steel steps, he takes off the jersey. He hands it to a little kid in the front. We notice his wrestling trunks are Cowboys navy, silver and white inspired. The Cowboys logo is on the front of his trunks. His last name in the back. Zach rushes up the ring steps, enters the ring. He climbs the middle rope, motioning to the crowd to cheer more. They follow his lead. He beats his chest before hopping off the middle rope. He leans in the corner waiting for the match to start.

Vivian Blake: "Her opponent, representing The Void! From Laredo, Texas, weighing in at 190 pounds! This is…ZACHARY PORTER!!"

Dallas gives a roar for the home state competitor as Zach and Morgan stare each other down from their corners, waiting for the bell. It’s at this moment, Zach notices Morgan’s t-shirt and his look of focus washes away as he can’t help but break into a laugh and he nods, clapping a little at his opponent. Morgan cracks her sly little grin before removing her t-shirt and tosses it to a fan in the front row as she and Zach wait for the bell.



Kyle Cassidy: "Winter, we’ve been waiting a long time for a match of this caliber between The Void and The Kingdom and what better stage to have it on that right here at Destiny?!"

Winter Mae: "Kyle, these two have both said it isn’t about their factions. This isn’t even about their personal issues. This is about the sport. It’s two of the best wrestlers in Zion - arguably two of the best in the world - squaring up to see who’s better tonight!"

Kyle Cassidy: "Yeah, but you know both sides are gonna be watching."

Winter Mae: "Well, of course, why wouldn’t they be?"

Morgan and Zach meet in the middle of the ring, as face to face as they can, height difference factored in of course. They don’t move on each other just yet. They don’t even go for a lockup. They just…stand there…surrounded by the roaring fans of Dallas as everyone takes in the visual of two of wrestling’s best, staring each other down in the ring. As the crowd’s voices soar, Morgan and Zach look out at the crowd on opposite sides. They look to the other side, their gazes briefly passing over each other before looking across the rest of the crowd. Finally, they turn and make eye contact again. Not a single strike has been thrown and the crowd’s already losing it.

Crowd: "THIS IS AWESOME!
Clap-clap-clapclapclap
THIS IS AWESOME!
Clap-clap-clapclapclap
THIS IS AWESOME!
Clap-clap-clapclapclap
THIS IS AWESOME!
Clap-clap-clapclapclap"

Kyle Cassidy: "Listen to this crowd!"

Winter Mae: "They’re as ready for this as we are!"

Morgan and Zach nod at each other, ready to give the crowd what they want. Morgan slaps Zach in the chest, almost like a little hype shove, sending him back a step and the two step right in, meeting in a collar & elbow tieup. They jockey for position. The referee makes sure there’s no illegal handling going on as they try to push against each other. Morgan reaches across with one arm in the lockup, digging her forearm into the side of Zach’s face. Not a dirty or illegal maneuver but definitely not a comfortable part of locking up with her as it’s part of her usual arsenal. It’s enough that Zach is pushed off balance and they go back into the ropes where the referee demands they break. He starts counting and both Zach and Morgan break on three with Morgan reaching out and giving Zach a double pat on the shoulder.

Crowd: "Oooooooooh."

Zach looks at Morgan a little miffed at the gesture but he shakes it off and nods. He steps away from the ropes and he and Morgan lock up again! This time, Zach puts some momentum into his initial lunge and he catches Morgan before she can push back, forcing her back against the other side of the ropes. Again, the referee makes them break it up, starting to count. Both of them raise their hands to break and Zach cocks back like he’s about to go for a cheap punch…but he stops himself. Him and Morgan stare each other down, with the latter ready to defend herself if she needs to. Zach looks like he wants to knock her fucking teeth in but he fights against that urge and lowers his fist. Instead, he manages a smile and reaches out to pat Morgan’s face softly with his hand, answering her taunt earlier in his own way. Morgan’s jaw tightens but she shakes it off, nodding as if to say she deserved that.

Crowd: "Oooooooooh!!!"

Winter Mae: "This is already insane and we’re barely into the thick of it!"

Kyle Cassidy: "You can cut the tension of the past between these two with a knife."

Winter Mae: "Absolutely! They both agreed on a respectful match but they still can’t help but take those jabs at each other!"

Zach calls Morgan out into the center again and the two lock up for a third time!. This time, Morgan snatches Zach’s wrist, twists around and bends it behind him in a Hammerlock! Morgan wrenches hard on that arm, controlling Zach around the ring some, until he’s able to reverse out of it, and slap on his own Hammerlock! Morgan’s turn to yell out in pain now as she slaps at her shoulder as Zach torques her arm behind her. Eventually, she grabs Zach’s head onto her shoulder and swiftly sits out onto the mat. Not a Stunner, but getting herself into position to where she goes into a shoulder to shoulder side roll and pops back up, reversing into an Arm Wringer. Morgan wrenches hard on the wrist a couple times as Zach tries to loosen her grip before he drops into a forward and backward quarter roll, popping up and throws his own Arm Wringer on! Morgan yells in pain again, grabbing at her arm. A moment into it, she goes into her own double quarter roll but instead of mirroring Zach’s counter, she comes up onto a knee, slips a leg behind one of his and grabs onto his other ankle, sweeping his legs out from under him. Zach hits the mat and Morgan’s got his ankle now where she drops right down into a Front Heel Hook. Zach hisses in pain as Morgan tugs back on his leg but he’s able to reach the bottom rope, forcing the break. Morgan releases and rolls back with both coming up to a knee and pausing for a staredown. Dallas applauds the athleticism of both of them as they rise up and step in again.

Crowd: "THIS IS WRESTLING!
Clap-clap-clapclapclap
THIS IS WRESTLING!
Clap-clap-clapclapclap
THIS IS WRESTLING!
Clap-clap-clapclapclap
THIS IS WRESTLING!
Clap-clap-clapclapclap"

Zach shoots in and slips behind Morgan now, catching her in a Rear Waistlock. He gets it on tight and tries to manhandle her around the ring but she widens out her stances and shoves his arms down around her hips, sliding her thumbs in and popping her hips out to break they old. Morgan drops down onto her ass and rolls back, bringing her legs up under Zach’s arms and pulls him down into an Sunset Cradle!

ONE!

TWO!

KICKOUT BY ZACH!

He rolls back and stacks Morgan up!

ONE!

TWO!

KICKOUT BY MORGAN!

She thrusts her hips forward and sends him stumbling into the ropes! Morgan rolls back to her feet and comes rushing at Zach! He drops down at her feet but she hops over him. Zach pops up as Morgan comes back and leapfrogs over her. He lands like a cat on his feet as Morgan comes back behind him and NAILS HER WITH A PELE KICK! Morgan stumbles back into the ropes and Zach rolls backwards, up to her, catches her arm and sends her over in front of him with a Latigo Arm Whip. Morgan rolls into a situp and Zach repels back off the ropes in front of her with a Basement Dropkick! Cover again!

ONE!

TWO!

KICKOUT BY MORGAN!

Zach hops to his feet, pulls Morgan with him and goes for an Irish Whip. She reverses, but he latches onto her wrist and reverses it on his own right back and sends her through the ropes before turning to the crowd, feeling fired up. He doesn’t realize that Morgan’s caught herself on the apron until he sees her hopping back into the ring so he rushes at her for a lariat but Morgan kicks high, nailing him in the forearm. Zach stumbles back and Morgan steps in, grabbing him around the waist from the side, before hooking an arm under his legs and scoops him up, spinning out into a Sitout Blue Thunder Bomb!! Holds the leg for a cover!

ONE!

TWO!

KICKOUT BY ZACH!

Morgan makes it to her feet and pulls Zach up, shoving him back into the corner where she lifts him up onto the turnbuckle. Zach starts to fight back against it, punching her in the ribs to soften her up but Morgan fights right back, clobbering him in the head with her own punches. Zach grabs her under the legs, suddenly, looking for an Avalanche Powerbomb but Morgan ups the ante on the head punches and Zach’s forced to sit back down on the turnbuckle where Morgan steadies herself before pulling him up to stand with her and the crowd’s jaws drop as she hits a Frankensteiner, sending them both crashing to the mat!

Kyle Cassidy: "I’ve never seen Morgan Payne do that in her entire career!!!"

Zach’s quick to get up, using the momentum in his body from the Frankensteiner but he stumbles into the opposite corner. Morgan comes rushing in, wasting no time with a Running Backhand Chop, throws him to the canvas then launches herself across the ring, off the ropes and back for a Hesitating Dropkick! “YOI YOI DOUBLE YOI!” Zach goes rolling out onto the floor and leans back against the barricade. Morgan’s like a woman on speed as she gets back to her feet, bounds off the ropes and comes diving through with a Suicide Dive, crashing into Zach and sending that portion of the barricade buckling in as they crumble to the floor! The referee rushes out to check on them for no injury before sliding back in and begins counting.

Winter Mae: "Listen to this crowd, Kyle! They’re electric!"

Kyle Cassidy: "This absolutely phenomenal Winter!"

Morgan pulls herself to her feet and helps Zach up, rolling him back into the ring before getting ready in the corner. She waits for him to get up, slapping her boot and stomps it to the mat once to get the crowd riled up more. Zach fights his way to his feet and turns towards Morgan as she comes charging in! “TASTES LIKE A TIMBALAND BOOT, BITCH” but Zach refuses to be served and catches her by the foot! He spins her out into a full 360, kicking her in the midsection when she’s facing him again and serves her up something of his own! “PORTER’S HOUSE (SITOUT FACEBUSTER)!!!!” He hooks the leg!

ONE!

TWO!

TH–

MORGAN BARELY KICKS OUT!

Zach slaps the mat in frustration but gathers himself and quickly moves to the corner, climbing up to the top as he calls for it. He comes leaping off, looking for “PARADISE LOST” but Morgan rolls inward! Zach lands on his feet and it looks like one of his legs buckles and he staggers, cursing in pain! He catches himself on the turnbuckle and turns! MORGAN COMES LAUNCHING IN WITH “TASTES LIKE A TIMBALAND BOOT, BITCH (BROGUE/HELLUVA KICK)” IN THE CORNER!!!! Zach falls limp against the turnbuckles and Morgan throws him out towards the center of the mat! She drops down for a cover!

ONE!

TWO!

THREE—

SHOULDER UP BY ZACH AT 2.9!!!!!

The crowd explodes as Morgan rolls over onto her back, staring up at the lights in disbelief. Both competitors lie sprawled out on the mat, breathless and sweat beading off their skin. The cheers of appreciation turn to boos, leading to confusion for a moment before the cameras catch Eduardo Gutiérrez running down to the ring. He starts to climb onto the apron and the referee catches him, stepping up to argue him off as Morgan and Zach start trying to find some life in their bodies. Morgan starts crawling towards the ropes on the opposite side but Zach sees the referee arguing with Eduardo on the apron. A flash of annoyance comes across his face as he stands to his feet and comes up beside the referee.

Zachary Porter: "Ed! What are you doing? Get outta here!"

Eduardo Gutiérrez "Zach, no! I gotchu dawg!"

Zachary Porter: "I don’t want any help! Get outta here!"

Eduardo Gutiérrez "But…!!"

Zachary Porter: "Please, man! Go!"

Zach turns back towards Morgan just in time to see her charging in with rage on her face as she comes flying in. Zach dives out of the way and Morgan catches Ed with “KHAO LOI (LEAPING MUAY THAI KNEE)” and he goes flying from the apron, down to the floor!! Zach watches him go down, looking torn between concern and almost a sort of “wouldn’t have happened if you hadn’t come down here” look. He steps back to the center of the ring as Morgan turns towards him, fuming now and starts walking towards him.

Morgan Payne: "Couldn’t help it, huh?!"

Zachary Porter: "Morgan, chill. It isn’t what it looked like."

Morgan Payne: "Oh, it ain’t what it looks like! We agreed on nobody else aht here!"

And she shoves Zach angrily. Zach’s temper flares and he shoves her right back.

Zachary Porter: "”I told them to stay in the back!"

Morgan stumbles back and her trademark temper boils over as she blasts Zach in the jaw with a stiff as hell right hand. Zach’s rocked but he fires one right back at her! Morgan eats it and gives one right back! Zach answers and the two start firing off at each other on all cylinders.

Kyle Cassidy: "Well that escalated quickly!"

Winter Mae: "This match was going so well until Eduardo Gutiérrez decided to poke his nose out here!"

Kyle Cassidy: "Now look at them! This has turned into a fight!"

Morgan and Zach are just trading vicious blows back and forth with Zach backing Morgan into a corner with his shots until Morgan catches one arm and reverses, throwing him back into the corner and starts alternating backhand chops and hard jabs to the jaw. Jab! Chop! Jab! Chop! Jab! Chop! Jab! Chop! Jab! Chop! Jab! Chop! Jab! Chop!

Crowd: "WHOOP DAT TRICK!!
WHOOP DAT TRICK!!
WHOOP DAT TRICK!!
WHOOP DAT TRICK!!"

Morgan winds back for a big finishing strike but Zach dodges out of the way, causing her to stumble into the turnbuckle. She turns around she her catches her with a CCS Enzuigiri! Morgan falls back against the turnbuckles as Zach gets up and starts running around the perimeter of the ring! He comes back around and comes flying in with his foot out! “COWBOY UP (KAIO KICK)” BUT MORGAN ROLLS OUT OF THE WAY AND ZACH GETS HUNG UP ON THE MIDDLE ROPE!!! Morgan comes off the ropes and rushes in!! SLIDING GERMAN SUPLEX TO ZACH!!!! Morgan hops to her feet and slaps the mat, yelling. A mix between anger at the situation she perceives and just being fired up. She sees Zach struggling on the mat and considers her options before climbing onto the apron and starts climbing to the top turnbuckle.

Kyle Cassidy: "She going up top?!"

Winter Mae: "She’s done it before."

Morgan starts motioning for Zach to stand up, probably looking for her usual Missile Dropkick but Zach lifts his eyes while up on one knee to see her posted and when he does rise, it’s in a sudden rush up to the top turnbuckle where he catches Morgan around the neck and shoulders with an arm. He flips back off the top and takes her into a front flip with him!!!

Winter Mae: "ZACH PORTER?!?!?!"

Kyle Cassidy: "HOLY SHIT!!!!!"

Crowd: "OHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!"

Zach and Morgan go crashing to the mat from a jaw dropping Spanish Fly!!!

Winter Mae: "Kyle, you said you’d never seen Morgan Payne do such a move earlier! I’ll say the same about what Zach Porter just did!!!"

Crowd: "HOLY SHIT!
HOLY SHIT!
HOLY SHIT!
HOLY SHIT!"

Zach picks himself up again and starts climbing up to the turnbuckle again but Morgan reaches out and catches him by the boot then into a Waist Lock on the middle turnbuckle. Zach tries to fight her off but she headbutts him right in the back between the shoulders, slowing him down before she steps up onto the top turnbuckle and shoots off with a big Avalanche German Suplex! Both go flying but Zach lands on his feet!! Morgan starts getting up and Zach runs in, turning into her, pulling her down into a backslide!!!

ONE!

TWO!

THRE—NO!

MORGAN KICKS OUT!

She rolls up to her feet and runs in for a Yakuza Kick but Zach rolls under her leg, pops to his feet and runs off the ropes!! Takes Morgan down with a Slingblade!! Morgan hits the mat but she pops up with a fired up roar!! She runs off the ropes and leans into her charge for “Faugh Ballagh (Impact Spear)” but Zach leap frogs her! He lands and turns around but here comes Morgan again, this time NAILING HIM WITH “THE FADED LINE (PUMPING BOMBER LARIAT)!!!!!” She drops down for a cover!!

ONE!

TWO!

NO! ZACH KICKS OUT AGAIN!

Morgan wastes no time in getting emotional as she stands up and pulls Zach with her. She scoops him across her shoulders into an Inverted Fireman’s Carry!

Winter Mae: "Oh this is it!!"

Kyle Cassidy: "Nighty night, Zach Porter!"

“DAHNTAHN AFTER DAHK (BURNING HAMMER)”....BUT ZACH ROTATES THROUGH AND LANDS ON HIS FEET! MORGAN TURNS TOWARDS HIM!! ANOTHER “PORTER’S HOUSE”!!!! Morgan’s face bounces off the mat and it propels her to her feet but she staggers back into the corner, seeing stars. Zach sees his opening and he doesn’t waste time. He comes running around! ”COWBOY UP” AND THIS TIME HE NAILS IT!!!!! Morgan’s head snaps to the side. Spit goes flying. She collapses backwards onto the mat! Zach climbs to the top! He poses just for a second!! ”PARADISE LOST (DIVING DOUBLE FOOT STOMP)!!!!” Zach covers again!!!!

Vivian Blake: "Here is your winner…ZACHARY PORTER!!!!!!"

Winter Mae: "Zachary Porter has done it!! He has seized his Destiny moment in putting an age old rivalry to bed!"

Kyle Cassidy: "And he did it all by himself, Winter!!"

Winter Mae: "Yes he did! That much can be said!"

As “Lux Aeterna” plays, Zach celebrates his victory for a minute before looking to see Morgan sitting in the corner with her hand on the back of her neck, head down. He slowly walks over to her and drops down to his knees in front of her. Morgan looks up from the mat at him. The two stare back at each other for a minute and Zach slowly offers out his fist. Morgan stares at the fist for a moment…looks up at Zach…and reaches out, pressing her own fist to his, much to the joy of the crowd. Zach opens that hand out and clasps it with Morgans’ as he pulls her to her feet and the two share a warrior’s embrace, sending the crowd into a louder pop. When the embrace breaks, Morgan grabs Zach by the wrist and raises his arm to the crowd. The two nod at each other as Morgan then backs out of the ring, wincing in pain as she walks back up the ramp but still able to hold her head high.

Winter Mae: "One of the finest matches I’ve ever had the pleasure of calling, ladies and gentlemen!"

Kyle Cassidy: "Didn’t even need a title on the line! Just pure competition! Goddamn it, I love professional wrestling!!"

WINNER: ZACHARY PORTER
RESULT: PINFALL (PARADISE LOST)

[Kai Morgan]

The lights in the arena dim as the first beats of "Whatever It Takes" by Hollywood Undead start ringing out across the sound system.

I do whatever it takes to make it
Break through anything I'm face to face with
It's true, you gon' make me lose my patience
'Cause victory is mine and I'mma take it

Melody Slayton steps out from behind the curtain, a cocky smirk on her face as the crowd begins to boo. She points out toward the crowd, then drops to one knee and poses, bringing her hands together to make a heart - before making a retching noise and standing up, making rude motions to the crowd.

So put your hands up high
Now wave them side to side
Now when I pull out the nine
You better wave bye bye

Melody then makes her way down toward the ring, mocking any young fans who put their hands out and laughing.

So take a page from my book
Roll it up and get cooked
Watch these ladies get hooked
While all these haters get shook

Melody reaches ringside and climbs up the nearest set of stairs. She steps onto the ring apron, leans forward, and stretches her arms outward, basking in the negative reaction from the fans in attendance.

We gonna rise up to the top
We've been through it all
Been to fucking hell and back
Our backs against the wall
Got the dove and grenade flag on display
And every fucking critic's gonna listen when we say

As the song winds down, Melody slips into the ring through the middle ropes. She makes her way to the nearest corner and leans against the turnbuckles, idly awaiting the start of the match.

As Melody paces around the ring and waits for VLADISLAV to make his entrance… the lights in the arena shut off. The crowd murmurs with anticipation as they wait for something to happen… It feels like an eternity passes before we finally get something as a spotlight hits the stage and we can see a full Orchestra is on the stage.




That’s when it begins. The sound of the drum beating as the choir begins to sing a live rendition of “O Fortuna”. At this point, VLADISLAV has slowly made his way out to the stage. Wasteland Championship around his waist. He looks around at the crowd before he slowly begins the march down to the ring.

Semper crescis
Aut decrescis
Vita detestabilis
Nunc obdurat
Et tunc curat
Ludo mentis aciem,
Egestatem,
Potestatem
Dissolvit ut glaciem.

He has reached the bottom of the ramp at this point as the Choir continues to sing and the orchestra continues to play, giving him the true aura that he strives for… The Final Boss has arrived. At this point, VLADISLAV looks around before his eyes settle on Melody. At that moment, the song really kicks in and pyro begins to go off behind VLADISLAV as he begins to make his way up the stairs and into the ring. He takes his belt off and walks towards Melody, standing tall in front of her and raising his championship high in the air as the song begins to end, and the crowd anticipation is at an all time high!

VLADISLAV gets told to back into the corner and he does, as Crybaby enters the ring and begins her announcements.

Crybaby: The following contest is scheduled for one fall… and is for the Zion Wrestling Wasteland Championship!

At this point, the lights in the arena dim and two spotlights hit both Melody and VLADISLAV. Crybaby looks over at Melody and begins her introductions.

Crybaby: Introducing first… from Milwaukee, Wisconsin… weighing in tonight at one hundred and eight pounds… she is “The Renegade”... SHE IS! MELODY! SLAAAAAAYTON!

The crowd goes crazy for Melody. Melody takes a moment to look around at the crowd before settling her gaze on VLADISLAV.

Crybaby: And introducing her opponent… from Warsaw, Poland… standing at Six feet, Eight Inches tall… and weighing in tonight at three hundred and fifty pounds… he is “Professional Wrestling’s Final Boss”... THIS! IS! VLAAAAAADISLAAAAV!

VLADISLAV takes a step out of the corner and raises his championship high into the sky, walking over to Melody Slayton once more to continue to try and play mind games with her… though it seems to not phase Melody in the slightest. The official backs VLADISLAV into his corner and asks him to hand over the Wasteland Championship, which he does while his gaze never breaks… staring a hole through Melody.

The referee goes over to Melody and shows her the championship, before returning to the center of the ring and raising the belt high for the audience, before handing the title to Crybaby and signaling for the bell to ring!



AND AS THE BELL RINGS, VLADISLAV CATCHES MELODY CHARGING AT HIM WITH A BIG BOOT THAT TURNS HER INSIDE OUT! He then picks her up by the back of her neck and nearly takes her head off with the Hammer of Warsaw! The burning lariat turns Melody inside out and VLADISLAV makes the pin!

ONE!

TW- KICKOUT!

Melody throws the shoulder up! VLADISLAV is frustrated. Picking up Melody and hitting her with ANOTHER Hammer of Warsaw! Melody falls and he makes the cover again!

ONE!

TW- KICKOUT!

ANOTHER KICKOUT FROM MELODY! VLADISLAV is growing more and more frustrated here. He picks Melody up again and begins to yell in her face.

VLADISLAV: You are not worthy of carrying this brand, Melody! Give up now!

He then rears back and chops her across the chest as hard as he can, sending her flying back into the corner! The sound of the chop echoes throughout the arena. Vlad goes over to her and picks her up, chopping her across the chest once more!

VLADISLAV is just having fun toying with Melody here, grabbing her and throwing her across the ring with an overhead belly to belly suplex! Melody crashes to the mat in a heap and VLADISLAV just slowly walks over to her. He then picks her up by the hair as the official tells him off, and goes to throw her across the ring again but Melody counters out of it! Nailing VLADISLAV with a headbutt that catches him flush! Vlad stumbles back and Melody catches him with a leaping knee that catches Vlad on the jaw!

VLADISLAV is stunned here, on one knee as Melody hits the ropes and comes charging in, nailing him with a Coldfire Strike that drops the big man, as Melody falls into the cover!

ONE

T- KICKOUT!

VLAD KICKS OUT AT ONE! Melody almost can’t believe it as the champion defiantly kicked out of her attempt, and kicking out of her V Trigger like that. Melody gets to her feet and begins to stop on the side of the big mans head, trying to kick his fucking head in! She lets out a defiant roar after stomping on the side of his head at least twenty times, before backing up into the corner and calling for him to get up.

Vlad slowly pulls himself to his knees, holding the side of his head as he does and Melody comes charging in, looking for another Coldfire Strike… BUT HE MOVES OUT THE WAY AND LOCKS IN A SLEEPER HOLD! Melody tries to desperately reach for the ropes but VLADISLAV ragdolls her away from the ropes, before slamming her back with a Sleeper Suplex that stacks her on her neck! She rolls away holding the back of her head as VLADISLAV seems to shake the cobwebs off.

He then goes towards her as she uses the ropes to try and pull herself to her feet and kicks her in the side of the face, calling for her to try and fight back. Melody pulls herself up to her feet and Vlad just rears back and kicks her across the chest with a sickening thud! Melody crumples but Vlad is quick to pick her up as he chops her across the chest again!

BUT MELODY FIRES BACK RIGHT AWAY WITH AN OPEN HAND SLAP ACROSS THE FACE OF VLADISLAV! Vlad does not like this and goes to swing at her but she ducks the like and hits him with her own chop that echoes throughout the arena, and then she connects with a third before she shoots off the ropes, looking to nail VLADISLAV with a Coldfire Strike… BUT VLADISLAV CATCHES HER OUT OF MID AIR WITH THE KOWALSKI KO! THE ROLLING ELBOW CATCHES MELODY FLUSH AND VLAD LOOKS LIKE HE HAS THE MATCH WON!

Vlad then grabs Melody up, calling for the end as he PLANTS her in the center of the ring with the Red Scare! Melody slams down against the canvas and VLADISLAV makes the cover, thinking the match won!

ONE!

TWO!

TH- NO!

KICKOUT FROM MELODY!

VLADISLAV can’t believe it! In fact, he goes to make the cover again!

ONE!

TWO!

TH- NO! ANOTHER KICKOUT!

Melody throws the shoulder up again! Vlad grabs her by the hair and pulls her to her feet, he slaps her across the face twice before screaming in her face.

VLADISLAV:YOU ARE NOT WORTHY, MELODY! YOU DO NOT HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO CARRY MY BRAND!

At that point he picks her up on his shoulders, looking for The Iron Curtain!...

BUT MELODY COUNTERS OUT OF IT! MELODY REVERSES THE MOMENTUM AND SPIKES VLADISLAV ON HIS HEAD WITH THE MIND SPIKE!

VLADISLAV IS ON THE ROPES AFTER THAT POISONRANA! Melody out of nowhere is able to connect with the mind spike and the crowd is fully invested in this match and behind her! She goes to make the cover on Vlad!

ONE!

TWO!

T- KICKOUT AT TWO!

VLAD GETS THE SHOULDER UP! Melody wastes little time now, knowing that Vlad is not one hundred percent, pulling herself up before then grabbing VLADISLAV by the head and pulling him up and throwing his arm over her head, and looking to pick up The Final Boss of Professional Wrestling! She tries once, then twice, and then on the third time it almost looks like she’s going to get him up for a brainbuster! She tries again and again but Vlad is able to counter it, nailing her again with a Red Scare! He hooks the legs deep as he feels like the match is done!

ONE!

TWO!

…

…

THR-

NO! MELODY KICKS OUT AGAIN!

VLADISLAV CAN’T BELIEVE IT! He pulls her up by her hair and goes for another Hammer of Warsaw…

BUT MELODY MOVES OUT OF THE WAY, HITTING THE ROPES AND NAILING VLADISLAV WITH A COLDFIRE STRIKE! THE V TRIGGER DROPS THE BIG MAN TO A KNEE! Melody sees this and hits the ropes once more, nailing him with ANOTHER COLDFIRE STRIKE! Vlad falls forward, catching himself before he falls but he is on both knees here. Melody backs up into the corner and looks around at the crowd…

AND SHE STARTS TUNING UP THE BAND!

The crowd clap along as she does, each stomp on the mat seemingly wakes her up, getting so fired up that when Vlad pulls himself up she almost kicks her foot through his face as she absolutely NAILS VLADISLAV WITH THE FULL EFFECT V2! VLADISLAV FALLS BACKWARDS AND MELODY MAKES THE COVER!

ONE!

TWO!

…

…

THRE-

NO!

VLADISLAV KICKS OUT!

Melody can’t believe it, but The Final Boss throws his shoulder up at the last possible moment! Melody goes into the corner but VLADISLAV is pulling himself up to his feet already! Melody can’t believe it! She realizes how close she is to the corner and climbs up to the middle turnbuckle, before making sure Vlad is in position and leaps…

AND NAILS HIM WITH THE MISERY BUSINESS! THE PANAMA SUNRISE STACKS VLADISLAV ON THE TOP OF HIS HEAD AND HE FALLS BACKWARDS!

Melody pulls herself back and onto the ring apron as the crowd begins to go crazy, and it looks like VLADISLAV is out of it! She notices this and looks at the turnbuckles. She then slowly begins to pull herself up to her feet and up the turnbuckles, making it to the top rope. She looks down at VLADISLAV, who has not moved an inch since the Panama Sunrise moments ago, then around at the crowd surrounding her…

AND SHE LEAPS!

…

…

AND CONNECTS WITH THE 630 SENTON! SHE LANDS PERFECTLY IN THE CENTER OF VLADISLAV! MELODY NOW MAKES THE COVER!

ONE!

TWO!

…

THREEEEEEE!!!!



Crybaby: Here is your winner!... and the NEW Zion Wrestling Wasteland Champion… “The Renegade”... MELODY! SLAAAAAAAAAYTON!

“Whatever It Takes” begins to play throughout the arena, as the official hands Melody the Wasteland Championship and she pulls herself to her feet and gets her hand raised high, holding the Wasteland Championship proudly above her head as the moment of realization sets in. She goes to one of the corners and pulls herself up, raising the belt high as VLADISLAV begins to stir, pulling himself to his feet as Melody hops down from the corner. He walks towards her, holding his midsection.

The two exchange words as VLADISLAV extends his hand towards her, and the pair share a moment of respect before he rolls out of the ring, allowing Melody her moment. She raises the championship she has just won high above her head again as the scene fades from ringside.

WINNER: MELODY SLAYTON (#ANDNEW)
RESULT: PINFALL (630 SENTON)
