Instead of walking out to her own music, Jenna Sharpe comes out to the Wasteland theme with the Gateway Championship around her waist. She takes a moment to pose with the belt at the top of the ramp, then makes her way down to the ring while giving high fives and stopping for selfies with a few young fans. When she gets to the ring, she unbuckles her championship belt and raises it high above her head, showing it off to cheers from the crowd.
Jenna Sharpe: Welcome back to Wednesday Night Wasteland! How’s everyone doing tonight?
The crowd cheers again and Jenna smiles, basking in the sound.
Jenna Sharpe: That’s what I like to hear! A few short months ago, Ollie Peters introduced me to Zion Wrestling as the very first talent exclusively signed to Wasteland from outside the company, and it’s been my honor to represent the pink brand ever since. And now, after Destiny III, I can finally stand face to face with Ollie and with all of you, holding tangible proof of your belief in me.
She takes a deep breath and composes herself, letting the belt rest on her shoulder as she continues talking.
Jenna Sharpe: And I can assure you all, I’m going to be a fighting Gateway Champion. You all saw how I fought in the tournament to crown the inaugural Wasteland Champion. You saw how I fought in the Zion World Cup. When it comes to representing Wednesday nights, there is no one out here who puts her heart and soul on the line in every match the way I do. And yes, that includes our current Wasteland Champion, Melody Slayton. When I get to my 90th day, Melody - or whoever happens to be Wasteland Champion at the time - better know that I’m coming for that title.
Jenna grins, looking directly into that camera to make sure that everyone knows that they’re officially on notice.
Jenna Sharpe: Until then, though? I’m ready to defend this title anytime, anywhere. Whether it’s here on Wasteland, on Mayhem, on Fusion, or hell, even in another company - you want me? Come find me.
She holds her arms out, showing that she’s ready for anyone that decides they want to try and take her title away from her.
Jenna Sharpe: It’s no secret that these last few months have been hard for me, for quite a few reasons. But I want to thank you guys for sticking by me and continuing to believe in me. I’m happy to report that things are a lot better now, though. Not only am I a champion, after four very long years without a singles title, but I also have the love of my life back. For all of you who’ve asked on Twitter and other socials, I’m happy to report that Kasey is recovering well and you’ll be seeing him back in a ring very soon. As for when he’s coming back to Zion? That, I don’t have an answer for. All I can tell you is to keep watching.
Her face lights up as she talks about Kasey, and she winks when she tells the crowd to keep watching.
Jenna Sharpe: We have an amazing show planned for you guys tonight, so I’m gonna head to the back and watch it. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do. Long live the Wasteland!
Raising her title above her head, Jenna drops her mic and exits the ring, making her way around the ring to greet the fans before heading back up the ramp.
“LIKE IT! LOVE IT!” by Setsuna Yuki rang out before Ayu Megumi appeared. Fans erupted in cheers throughout Zion Stadium. Ayu appeared with a wide smile on her face and waved hello to the fans. As other fans cheered and called her name, Ayu couldn't hold back her tears. Tears appeared in her eyes, tears of joy to have so many Wasteland fans welcome her as Ayu headed towards the ring, shaking hands with fans along the way before she slid into the ring. Ayu walked closer to the ropes and asked the timekeeper for a microphone before she walked back to the center of the ring before her theme faded as she raised the microphone to her mouth level.
Ayu Megumi: Thank you! Thank you so much for welcoming me so well. I was shocked because this was my first time appearing in Wasteland. The fans here were amazing and it made me feel right at home. And I'm very pleased that I was chosen to come here. I feel like Wasteland's history with Zion Wrestling is about to begin after I've been following Wasteland since day one. I've been so impressed with the quality of matches that everyone here has produced that I've become a part of Wasteland today. I am so pleased that everyone here welcomed me so warmly. Everyone's cheers here were amazing and it made me feel so happy. Coming here will be my development. Of course I am excited to meet everyone here. It will be a good memory for me. From today I will do my best. I will try to impress everyone here. My goal is to make my mark on the history of Zion. I know I'm only starting out but the quality of everyone here shows that Wasteland has the quality to take the next step. Going to be Zion's best show ever. I was impressed from the moment I walked in and saw how welcoming everyone was. It's really impressive. And I want to thank you again. I must say that from now on, let's fight together. I will do everything possible to bring myself to the top of Wasteland. Of course, I don't want to disappoint my fans. I came to Wasteland to start over and I will make history. myself here as well Because of today's cheers, I will keep it as my motivation to fight with everyone at Wasteland to be number one here.
Ayu Megumi lowered her microphone a bit and took the time to look around as the fans in Zion Stadium were applauding her and Ayu was looking at them with a smile before she raised her microphone again. As she was thinking of saying something again.
Ayu Megumi: Lastly, before I go back, I really want to thank everyone once again. I don't have much more to say except that from now on, come follow and keep fighting with me. Because I too will do my best to make my career at Zion better, Wasteland gave me this opportunity. I won't waste this opportunity. I won't let anyone here down. I have come to be at the forefront of Wasteland today. There is no need to believe my words. But this is my promise that I intend to fulfill in Wasteland. I have everyone's support here and let's see how far I can go here. I don't know what my path in Wasteland will take, but I'm really excited about starting over here. Wasteland will definitely be my place and I'll take myself to the top of it. I want everyone here to repeat after me!
Ayu Megumi: Believe today, shine tomorrow!
Ayu Megumi finished speaking as she dropped the microphone into the ring before “LIKE IT! LOVE IT!” by Setsuna Yuki was played again to the cheers of the fans, with Ayu waving to the fans before she left the ring. Then head backstage before the scene fade away.
OPENING CONTEST: Yuka Suzuki vs Jessica Carter
Suzuki is quick to gain a measure of dominance in this one, rushing over and taking Carter’s arm with a Wristlock! She quickly follows up, immediately transitioning into a Hammerlock to keep Carter on her toes! Carter tries to escape, only for Suzuki to once again think ahead of her, sweeping her leg and sending her face first to the mat! Suzuki floats over Carter, going for a Grounded Front Facelock! Carter gradually makes it back to her feet, twisting the pair around and going for a Backslide Pin! This, like most things Carter attempts to do, doesn’t end well, with Suzuki refusing to budge as Carter tries to take her down! Suzuki eventually escapes Carter’s grasp, turning and nailing her with a Bell Clap! She quickly grabs Carter from behind, dropping her with a Straightjacket German Suplex! Carter attempts to get to her feet, with Suzuki running the ropes and catching her with a Penalty Kick!
Suzuki looks to finish this off, running towards Carter as she gets up! Carter ducks underneath whatever Suzuki was attempting, but this looks to be a swerve, as Suzuki hits the ropes and comes back to Carter even faster with a Spear! Suzuki goes to the top rope now, leaping off and connecting with GFYS!! Double Foot Stomp straight to Carter’s sternum! Suzuki goes for the pin and secures the easy three count!
WINNER: Yuka Suzuki
The cameras start up backstage where we can see the Wasteland General Manager, Oliver Peters, sat behind his office desk. He looks up into the cameras and begins to speak.
Oliver Peters: How's it going, Wasteland? I promise, I won't be keeping you here for long... I just wanted to take some time out of the show to give you all a huge announcement that is fresh and hot off the presses. Over the course of the next few weeks, Wednesday Night Wasteland will be hosting a tag team tournament to crown the next contender for Schadenfreude and their Wasteland Tag Team Championships! The teams in the tournament will be as follows...
He picks his glasses up from his desk and puts them on, before beginning to read out the names.
Oliver Peters: MUD & Filth, Hebi no Rengo, Thotline Miami, The Gemstones, The Last of The Valkyries, and finally, Las Olvidadas. The teams will be in two brackets. Those brackets are as follows. MUD & Filth, Thotline Miami and The Gemstones in group A, and Hebi no Rengo, Las Olvidadas and The Last of The Valkyries in group B. Each team in each bracket will face each other once, and the best team from each bracket will face off against one another to crown the new number one contenders. Now... with that out of the way, I hope you all enjoy the rest of the show!
With that, Oliver puts the papers away as the scene fades from his office.
MATCH TWO: VLADISLAV vs Big Doze Dozer
VLADISLAV comes face to face with Big Doze Dozer, easily one of the biggest members of Zion Wrestling’s enhancement talent roster! This doesn’t seem to phase him however, nor does it even amuse him. VLADISLAV seems disgusted by his presence. Almost slighted that he would have to entertain this joke of a man so soon after being a top champion at the biggest show of the year! He lets his feelings be known right out of the gate, rushing over to Dozer’s corner and nailing him with a Dropkick right into it! He collides with the turnbuckle so hard it looks like it’s about to pop right off! VLADISLAV doesn’t let up on him however, grabbing him by the collar of his tie-dyed shirt, doing what we can only assume to be cursing out the jobber in his native language before pulling him up and dropping him with a Short-Armed Clothesline!
VLADISLAV keeps a hold on Dozer’s arm, giving it a tug as he remains on the mat! Dozer doesn’t budge, however, with VLADISLAV letting up on the attempt! He tries it again, this time yanking the big man off the mat and swiping him down with a Chop! The crowd let out a collective, audible gasp as VLADISLAV struts around the ring following his big showing of strength! He pulls Dozer off the mat, slamming him down with the Iron Curtain! Burning Hammer to Dozer! VLADISLAV covers, getting the three count for the win!
WINNER: VLADISLAV
Matt Mears: And yet another dominant performance from the former Wasteland World Champion, VLADISLAV.
Ben Petrie: He just put Wasteland on notice with that performance that despite no longer being the champion, he’s still a force to be reckoned with.
As “O Fortuna” by Carl Orff continues to play over the sound system and VLADISLAV soaks in his victory, all of a sudden the lights start to flicker slightly and “O Fortuna” begins to cut in and out.
Matt Mears: What’s going on? Are we having a power outage?
The screen now begins to glitch out as “O Fortuna” also glitches out, slowing down every now and then to then speeding up which now grabs the attention of VLADISLAV.
Ben Petrie: That’s no power outage, Matt.
Now the titantron flickers to life as we see the silhouette of a man with long hair and beard wearing a top hat, who we discovered the previous week via X is simply known as “Father”, surrounded in a blue hue as smoke dances around him.
₣₳₮ⱧɆⱤ: ₳₦ ɆӾɆ₥₱Ⱡ₳ⱤɎ ₱ɆⱤ₣ØⱤ₥₳₦₵Ɇ, ₥Ɽ. VⱠ₳Đł₴Ⱡ₳V.
He says in a distorted voice as his gloved hands slowly clap.
₣₳₮ⱧɆⱤ: ₩Ɇ Ⱨ₳VɆ ฿ɆɆ₦ ₩₳₮₵Ⱨł₦₲ ɎØɄ ₣ⱤØ₥ ₳₣₳Ɽ.
VLADISLAV immediately calls for a microphone of his own, clearly not intimidated by the man simply known as “Father”.
VLADISLAV: You say you have been watching me from afar, have you? Well why don’t you come out here? Come on. Be a man not a coward.
₣₳₮ⱧɆⱤ: VɆⱤɎ ₩ɆⱠⱠ.
The titantron then goes static and the lights in the arena go out except for a dark blue spotlight focused on the stage and we see “Father” slowly walking out onto the stage. After several eerie moments, “Father” raises his arms up and as he does so, the lights come back on and we see that VLADISLAV is no longer alone in the ring.
Matt Mears: What the--
Ben Petrie: The Hell is going on?!
Standing in front of VLADISLAV is a diminutive brunette woman with a hood up and a face mask, she slowly removes the hood and face mask to reveal herself to be…
Matt Mears: SYLVIA LOPEZ?!?!
Ben Petrie: Sylvia Lopez is back in Zion! And look! She’s not alone!
Unbeknownst to VLADISLAV, standing behind him is a tall, muscular man, also with a hood up and wearing a face mask. The man removes the hood to reveal the short blonde hair and then takes off the face mask to reveal himself to be none other than one of the Wasteland draft picks and Sylvia Lopez’s older brother, Samuel Lopez.
Matt Mears: It’s Samuel Lopez! All those cryptic posts on X saying “he is coming” and “she is coming” were pertaining to Sylvia and Samuel Lopez!
Ben Petrie: And VLADISLAV still has no idea that Samuel is in the ring with them too!
Sylvia then grins widely at her brother and waves vigorously at him, which of course gets VLADISLAV’s attention as he turns around… and right into Enjoy The Silence!
Matt Mears: Enjoy The Silence! Samuel has Enjoy The Silence locked in on VLADISLAV!
Ben Petrie: The Lopez siblings and whoever “Father” is are sending a message right now to not just VLADISLAV… but the entire Wasteland roster!
Sylvia bounces up and down on the spot and claps with glee as she watches as VLADISLAV fades in the arms of her brother. Back up on stage, “Father” raises his right hand and then clicks his fingers causing the lights to go out again.
Matt Mears: Now what?!
Ben Petrie: Beats me.
After a few moments, the lights come back on to find that “Father”, Sylvia and Samuel Lopez have all disappeared while an unconscious VLADISLAV remains in the ring alone as we cut elsewhere.

After a few moments, the lights come back on to find that “Father”, Sylvia and Samuel Lopez have all disappeared while an unconscious VLADISLAV remains in the ring alone as we cut elsewhere.
We cut to a shot in the forest where we see a fire burning in a clearing. Around the fire, we see a couple of logs, one with a redhead sporting a pair of black, birdlike wings that are tucked into her back. Across from her is a blonde girl, looking smaller than her compatriot and a pouch sitting on her hip. As we get a look at their faces, we see that it's Christina Olson and Lilith Meadows.
Christina Olson: Wasteland, a place of desolation and ruin. A wasteland means devastation for all in the area. Tonight, Lil and me, we step into the Wasteland of Zion, ready to begin a new journey.
Lilith Meadows: Tonight we get to fight alongside our best friend. Tonight we get to take on a new chapter in our time here in Zion. We're so ready to make an impact and climb the ranks in the tag team division here and get the gold.
Christina stands up, a big smile on her face as she walks around the fire and stands behind Lilith, putting a hand on her shoulder. Lilith reaches into the pouch at her hip and pulls out a massive Reese's Cup. She breaks it in half, reaching up to offer half to Christina. The redhead rolls her eyes and chuckles, pushing the hand away. The blonde shrugs her shoulders and just begins to eat the piece of candy.
Christina Olson: We gotta be focused tonight, Lil. We only got one chance to make a first impression and tonight is that chance. We gotta show the entire Wasteland Tag Division that we ain't a team that they can look past. Tonight we put the division on notice and begin making our mark here.
Lilith looks up and behind at Christina, a big grin on her face and her face covered in chocolate with the massive Reese's Cup now totally gone.
Lilith Meadows: We’re gonna get back on track out there tonight, Chrissy. We're confident in that. Tonight we fight like the warriors we are and tonight we begin our march to the top of the mountain.
Lilith smiles, reaching back into her pouch, this time pulling out something different and tossing a glittery pile into the fire, causing it to grow and cover their faces and as it dies down, the two of them are gone.
MATCH THREE: The Last of The Valkyries vs Yoel Michael Carl Anderson and Just Greg
As we cut from commercial break,, we see Y.M.C.A. getting the crowd to work along with his entrance, however, his tag partner is not as keen. Instead, he busts out the G.R.E.G. to get some laughs from the crowd, but a discouraged look on Y.M.C.A.’s face. His theme is interrupted by the Wasteland Debut of The Last of The Valkyries. As both teams get settled in the ring, the bell rings!
Our match opens up with Lilith squaring up to Y.M.C.A. Both get in an intense collar and elbow, which Yoel gets Lilith with a side headlock takedown, but, she would slip out and try to sneak an early win with an Oklahoma Roll pin attempt.
1..
2..
Y.M.C.A. kicked out, as he gets to his feet and was greeted with a standing dropkick for his trouble. Just Greg mocked him on the outside briefly, as Lilith would pull Y.M.C.A. up to plant him with a swinging neckbreaker. She dragged him to the Valkyries’ corner to tag in Christina, as they hit a double back suplex on Yoel. Christina would do a standing moonsault on Yoel, and goes for a vertical suplex, however Yoel lands on his feet to attempt an O'Connor Roll pin.

Christina kicked out, as Y.M.C.A. lunged to Greg and tagged him in. Greg tries to deny it, but, official Young demands him to get in. Just Greg would rush at Christina attempting a clothesline, but, she ducked and propelled him over with a big back body drop. As Greg gets to his feet, Christina would catch him with a Death Valley Driver. She tagged Lilith in, as the two hit Road to Valhalla, with Lilith securing the pin and Christina play defense.

WINNERS: The Last of The Valkyries
The cameras panned backstage to a silhouette of a figure holding a baseball bat. The figure soon walked into visibility, a small smile on her face once she looked at the camera. She held up her bat to the camera, showing that it was bright purple wrapped in barbed wire. Tapping it against the camera a few times, the mysterious woman spoke.
? ? ?:
Heeeellooooo~. I see you all watching. Whether you're in the crowd, sitting at home, or even if you're from the many circles of hell. I can sense the amount of eyes on my little self right now…
A small laugh came from the unknown woman, pacing around back and forth a few times before letting out a long sigh. Her eyes soon moved back to the camera with the same grin she had before.
? ? ?:
Ah! Yes, yes, yes…I almost forgot to introduce myself! That would've made all of this pointless now, wouldn't it~? Mhmm…I am Usagi Takemoto. The Mythical Rabbit. Rabbits like to hop around and enjoy their lives, I guess you could say the same about me…just enjoying myself here. All by myself~.
A pause came from Takemoto, only a momentary pause.
Usagi Takemoto:
For now! Only for now…everyone is alone for just a little while, but you have to find that perfect one that…becomes the ying to your yang…and I! Have! Found! That!
Giggling came from Usagi, looking up at the ceiling for a moment then looked back to the camera with a more serious look on her face.
Usagi Takemoto:
Soon! Soon, you'll see the arrival of my client. Such a smart man he is…rather handsome too. The way he dissects the human body and makes people scream by the simple way of Joint Manipulation is just…ahhhh~. Music to your ears! I promise, he'll be arriving soon. He doesn't talk much though, so you'll be getting a package deal! How lucky you are~.
Another smile came from Takemoto, taking a couple more seconds to pace around where she used her free hand to brush her hair back before looking back at the camera.
Usagi Takemoto:
It'll be such a fuuuuuuuun time…for us, at least. For whoever has the unfortunate time of having to be in the ring with my client? Well…good luck! You're going to need it. The world is going to burn to the ground while we watch from the distance. I have one more warning for you all! Batter Up!
With another laugh from Usagi, she full force swung the bat right at the camera as the feed cut off immediately. Static for a few seconds until cutting back to the main feed of the show.
The scene opens up backstage to Logan Traeger standing in front of a Wasteland signature backdrop, pacing back and forth.
Logan Traeger: Three objectives: Make an impact, leave an impression, and secure victory. Zion simply has no clue what has arrived at their doorstep. You… you are more than equipped mentally, physically, and executionally. So, where’s your head at right now?
Logan stops, looking to Evelin Delgado, who will be participating in her second match against Kamila Rose. Evelin seems much more relaxed than her partner, watching him pace with her arms crossed over her chest and an amused smile on her face.
Evelin Delgado: Lobo, cálmate. I have this, I know that I do. Kamila, she’s good, but she’s not me. The things I fight for, she does not fight for. And this is what we train for after Destiny - to show Zion fans they will love us.
He takes a deep breath and nods, smiling afterward.
Logan Traeger: I know, I know. Just back in the States kind of nerves I’m working through here. Managerial role for me tonight, it’s my job to hype and coach. I know you’re ready, and more than confident. I just want to personally make everyone regret they didn’t have us doing weekly, what you will be doing tonight, since we stepped foot in here the first time.
Evelin Delgado: We came very close to Destiny. Now, we have an opportunity. One that I am not wasting, I promise. When you and I are back in the ring, they will realize what they have in us. We are not just good, we are great. Tonight, I show them. Next week, your turn. And I will be in your corner like you are in mine. No need for nerves tonight, Lobo. We have each other, so we have everything. It will all be good.
He rubs his hands together just after stroking his beard.
Logan Traeger: And with everything on our side to fight for, we become unstoppable. Momentum is in our favor. Allow us to reintroduce ourselves…
Logan wraps his arm around Evelin and the two walk off slowly, smiling at the upcoming events of the night.
MATCH FOUR: Evelin Delgado vs Kamila Rose
As soon as the bell sounded, Kamila immediately went into a handspring, leaving Evelin to look at her like she had two heads. What Delgado wasn’t expecting was to be met with a back elbow as Rose came out of the handspring. Evelin’s hand instantly shot up to her mouth where Kamila’s elbow had connected, drawing it back to check for any blood. When she didn’t see any, she went to grab Kamila to make her pay, but Rose evaded the grab. She latched onto Evelin’s arm, hitting a beautiful arm drag that left Delgado on the mat, a little stunned at the other woman’s swiftness. Evelin was quick back to her feet, shaking her head as she nailed an oncoming Kamila with a big boot that rocked her from the power behind it. That allowed Evelin to grab Kamila before sending her flying with an exploder suplex.
Evelin stalked Kamila as the other woman steadily got back to her feet. There was a smirk on Delgado’s face as she motioned for Rose to bring it on which only seemed to anger the other woman. Kamila, now fully back on her feet, caught Evelin by surprise with a discus elbow smash straight to the woman’s chest! The air was knocked out of Evelin, and she gasped a little before taking a couple of deep breaths. Before she fully had the chance to catch her breath, Rose grabbed Delgado and sent her crashing back with a vicious belly-to-belly suplex. Evelin surprised everyone when she got back to her feet quickly, a smirk on her face again despite her breathing having gotten a touch heavier. Kamila ran at Evelin again, but Delago managed to grab Rose, hitting Reggaeton Drop before lifting her opponent to her feet again, this time hitting Jefa Perra before going for the pin.
ONE…!
TWO…!
THREE…!!!
WINNER: Evelin Delgado
The camera finds the members of Las Olvidadas, lurking outside under a streetlight in what looks like a dark parking lot.
Gabriela “Taza” Carbajal: ¡Malparido…
Sangre shrugs at her cousin.
Essentia “Sangre” Carbajal: Calmate…calmate…
Carmen Lucia “Turbo” Leija: My future sister-in-law is not pleased that we are standing here instead of in a ring but as that is not our choice..
Taza shakes her head.
Gabriela “Taza” Carbajal: ¡We are ready to show the world we are a great team just like you are ready to show the world what you can do!
She pauses and looks to face the camera.
Gabriela “Taza” Carbajal: ¡We are here and we will remind you all!
Sangre nods in agreement.
Essentia “Sangre” Carbajal: It is time.
Turbo nods pointedly.
Carmen Lucia “Turbo” Leija: Give it the gas, we will run any race. There will be no stopping us.
Zion cameras find Marcus Uriah Dunne, better known among the industry as “MUD” strolling through the halls with a sense of purpose to his step. He comes to a door reading “YENNEFER FILTH” on the nameplate and wraps his knuckles against the door.
Marcus Uriah Dunne:: ”Yo Yenn! You in there? It’s me!”
Yennefer Filth: COME ON IN!
Yenn’s voice calls from inside, so low and distant it’s almost easy to not even hear it. Whenever Marcus does walk into the locker room, he follows the sound of Yenn’s voice to the bathroom stall where he’s met with the sound of a low grunt.
MUD takes one step into the entry of the bathroom and immediately steps back behind the wall.
Marcus Uriah Dunne: ”Fuck’s sake! Ya know, if you need a few minutes, I can come back.”
Yennefer Filth: Nah man what’s up?
She lets out another grunt.
MUD covers his nose and makes a face under his hand, rolling his eyes.
Marcus Uriah Dunne: ”Well, I just wanted to hit you up and ask; you heard Olly Peters’ announcement earlier, right?”
Another low groan and grunt comes from inside the bathroom followed by a tiny fart.
Yennefer Filth: Ungh…fucker. Announcement? What–oh!! Oh yeah! The tag tournament!
MUD grimaces under his hand and shimmies a couple steps along the wall, further away from the entrance to the bathroom.
Marcus Uriah Dunne: ”Yeah, that. I was thinking with Wasteland moving more into being its own thing apart from Mayhem and Fusion, there ain’t exactly a lot of tag teams here, but you and me, we did pretty solid during Wrestle League, ya know?”
Yennefer Filth: Ugh. Oh man, don’t say solid right now. Jesus fuck… C’mon you!
There’s a solid thump on the wall. Most likely Yenn pounding her fist against the wall from where she is.
Marcus Uriah Dunne: ”Man, look…”
He shakes his head in, we’re not sure if it’s disbelief…possibly disgust.
Marcus Uriah Dunne: ”What I’m getting at is we kicked some ass each on our own. We even put on a banger when we matched up against each other, so I figured what the hell? Why don’t you and me go talk to the man and see about entering that tournament ourselves? You and me.”
Another pounding is heard on the wall.
Yennefer Filth: This fucking thing’s kicking my ass right now! Motherf—
Before Marcus can say anything back Yenn lets out a long, loud roar. Almost as if she’s about to go Super Saiyan right out of a DBZ episode. There’s a louder, more pronounced flatulent sound and the roaring stops. A moment later it’s followed by the sound of a camera shutter clicking.
Yennefer Filth: HAH! Niceeeeeee.
Next comes the sound of the toilet flushing and the sink running for a moment before Yennefer Filth finally comes into view of the camera, running the back of her hand across her forehead.
Yennefer Filth: Whew! Damn I’m glad that’s taken care of!
She smiles up at Marcus and gives him an upnod.
Yennefer Filth: Sup bruh?
MUD just stares at her in sheer confoundment and looks towards the bathroom before back to her.
Marcus Uriah Dunne: ”...You good?”
Yennefer Filth: Huh? Oh!
She looks behind her at the bathroom and smiles back at him, thumbing over her shoulder.
Yennefer Filth: Pssh! Yeah no problem at all! So what’s up? Tag Team Tournament? You and me?
MUD brings his hand down from over his mouth and nose and nods.
Marcus Uriah Dunne: ”I mean, yeah. Fuck it, why not? You down? Kick the hell outta some of these motherfuckers and see if we can’t take them straps off of Schnitzelfrauds or whatever the hell they call themselves.”
Yenn smiles big and nods in agreement.
Yennefer Filth: Fuckin’ A dude! Let’s do it! I never liked those guys anyway.
She offers a fist pound to Marcus with a big grin.
MUD bumps her fist with his and makes a face.
Marcus Uriah Dunne: ”Yeah, me neither. So yeah, c’mon let’s go talk to Peters and let him know we’re in.”
Yennefer Filth: Fuck yeah let’s go! Wait before we do. Real quick. Check that out!
She brings up her phone to show Marcus the screen with her grin growing wider.
MUD takes one look at the phone and his eyes almost pop out of his head before he makes another face and puts his hand over the screen to push it away from him.
Marcus Uriah Dunne: ”What the fuck, Yenn! How did you…? Know what, I don’t even wanna know. Let’s just go talk to Peters.”
MUD turns and walks right out of the locker room, shaking his head.
Yenn tucks her phone away and goes to follow after him as the shot starts to fade out.
Yennefer Filth: That’s fuckin’ wild ain’t it?! Hey you know we should come up with a tag team name or somethin’...

WINNER: TATER
Backstage at the Zion Stadium
Bea Carter: So many places before. So many opportunities. So many ascensions.
But Im here now. Zion and tge Wasteland lay before me. A desolate field plagued by conflict. A grand display of the struggles past and present.
And I understand my opponent is quite colorful and sweet. I dont smear this quality. In another life it could have been me also. But Razzles must fall for my ascension here to begin.
The first round pick for Wasteland and deserved from my understanding. That does not give me pause. Because Razzles must fall for my ascension here to begin.
It bears repeating because I must. I want this day, this moment remembered, when the Mystery of Mortality debuted and took the Wasteland for herself. I must ascend.
Accept your helplessness.
Crybaby: Ladies and gentlemen, at this time, please welcome…
Crybaby pauses as she reaches into her pocket and pulls out a sheet of paper. Curiously, some confetti and glitter falls out of it as she unfolds it.
Crybaby: Ahem… she is the daughter of two cities - both the pride and joy of the Brew City, MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN… and RIGHT HERE IN ORLANDO, FLORIDA, where she lettered as an editor of her high school paper and insists that this is just as good as lettering in a physical sport!
This gets a laugh out of the crowd, along with a pop alongside the hometown mention.
Crybaby: She is the second of her bloodline, furthering the legacy of her mother, Jen Corlen, and her father, the man who founded the Blazenwing Wrestling Federation, David Blazenwing!
Another cheap pop for fans of the old federation.
Crybaby: Finally, and perhaps most importantly, after a dramatic victory at Destiny III last month, she is your NNNNNEEEEEWWWWW REIGNING AND DEFENDING ZION WASTELAND CHAMPION…
A pause for dramatic effect.
Crybaby: …THE SECOND GENERATION SUUUUUUUUUUPERNOVA… MELODY SLAYYYYYYYYYYTONNNNNNNNNN!!!
The lights in the arena darken as the opening tones of “The Final Countdown” by Europe begin resonating throughout the arena. The stage fills with fog as the crowd, predictably, eats it all up.
Matt Mears: Does this seem a little over the top to you?
Ben Petrie: Over the top? More like befitting of a CHAMPION, Matt!
Right as the drums kick in, a figure rises up through the fog, her back turned to the crowd. The Zion Wasteland Championship gleams off the stage lights, the strap resting over the figure’s shoulder and down her back. As the lyrics to the song kick in, the figure turns to face the crowd and the lights pop to life.
Melody Slayton has arrived on Wednesday Night Wasteland.
Matt Mears: And our new Champion making, well, an impressive entrance here tonight on Wasteland. Even if it is a bit much for my tastes.
Ben Petrie: I can’t say I blame her. Melody has been waiting years to make this entrance in Zion Wrestling. I say let her have her moment! She’s earned it!
Melody makes her way down to the ring, grinning from ear to ear. She fist bumps a few fans along the way before hopping up the steps leading into the squared circle. She climbs the nearest corner and, right as the song reaches the chorus, throws her arms up in the air, holding the Wasteland Championship as high as she can. At that moment, pyro goes off on the stage. The crowd sings along:
♫ IT’S THE FINAAAAALLLLL COUNTDOOOOWWWWNNNNN ♫
After a quick victory lap around the ring, the lights return to normal and the music fades out. The crowd cheers, appreciating the spectacle if nothing else, as Melody is handed a mic from ringside.
Melody Slayton: …okay, you gotta admit, that was pretty cool.
She chuckles as the crowd cheers again.
Melody Slayton: Don’t worry, Orlando. I won’t keep you too long. I know we got a main event to get to, and no doubt my entrance already put us in overrun, haha.
A pause.
Melody Slayton: I’ve spent the last month thinking about what I would say when this moment finally came. Me… in a Zion Wrestling ring… with the Wasteland Championship… and a live mic.
She grins.
Melody Slayton: I could run down my history again and talk about why this title and my win at Destiny means so much to me, but you’ve all heard that story before. Three years, I left, I came back, I struggled, started from the bottom, now we’re - no, hang on, maybe not the best idea to quote Drake right now. ANYWAY. You get it.
The crowd laughs.
Melody Slayton: First… VLADISLAV.
The crowd starts to boo, but Melody intervenes.
Melody Slayton: No, no, no. I’ve gone to war with him twice now, and believe me when I say, that man deserves all the flowers. I was all set to be a bratty little indignant so-and-so going into our fight at Destiny, but he reminded me about the importance of respect in our business. He never talked down to me, he never made me feel lesser even when he swore victory, and he reminded me that you don’t need to be a giant gaping asshole - pardon my French - on this business in order to show toughness.
Melody pauses as she turns to the camera.
Melody Slayton: VLADISLAV, you reminded me just who the hell I am. You were every bit deserving of this Championship, and I have no doubt you’ll hold it again. Anytime you want a rematch, I’m game. And beyond that - and I’m being deadly serious here - if you EVER need someone to stand by your side and go to war… just say the word and I’m there. All the respect in the world, big man. Thank you for my moment… and I absolutely hope we get to make more in the future.
The crowd finally relents and cheers.
Matt Mears: Well, her entrance was anything but, but Melody showing a lot of humility in victory here tonight.
Ben Petrie: And if anybody deserves the respect, it’s VLADISLAV, our first-ever Wasteland Champion!
Melody Slayton: Now, if I may change gears… I want to discuss this show. Wednesday Night Wasteland. See, it feels like our brand has something of an image problem. And I’m looking to fix that.
Matt Mears: What do you think that means?
Melody Slayton: I feel like when people think Zion Wrestling, they think Mayhem and Fusion, but they don’t think Wasteland. It’s easy to say that’s because we’re the “new” show, but I think it’s deeper than that. It’s like…
She pauses for a moment, looking for the right words.
Melody Slayton: …Wasteland is Zion’s “Island of Misfit Toys”, y’know? We’re the dregs. The remnants. The leftovers that Mayhem and Fusion didn’t want.
Ben Petrie: I’m not exactly sure where our Champion is going with this, but it doesn’t sound like she’s very confident in our brand.
Matt Mears: You’re not wrong, this all sounds a bit overly negative. Totally not where I thought this was going when she came out here, I gotta be honest.
Melody Slayton: Look at me, right? I flopped on Mayhem. Flopped on Fusion. Show up on Wasteland, and now I’m the brand’s Champion. Hell, I’m the poster child for broken and unwanted toys here in Zion.
A beat as the crowd buzzes, unsure what to make of this promo.
Melody Slayton: But I think it’s time the misfit toys fight back! It’s time to shift the power here in Zion Wrestling! And most importantly, it’s time to make sure that when people hear the name Zion, they think WASTELAND!
The crowd cheers softly, still warily waiting to see where this all goes.
Melody Slayton: Let the same old faces run Mayhem and Fusion! Let them have the same matches, the same main events, the same feuds, over and over and over again! Wasteland? This is a land of untapped potential! A brand of endless possibilities!
Louder cheers from the Orlando faithful.
Melody Slayton: If you want the FUTURE of this company, you aren’t gonna find it on Mayhem, and you’re sure as hell not gonna find it on Fusion. You’re right where you goddamn need to be to experience the REVOLUTION firsthand!
A dramatic pause.
Melody Slayton: THIS IS THE WASTELAND OF OPPORTUNITY, PEOPLE, AND WE’RE GOING STRAIGHT TO THE MOTHERFUCKING TOP OF ZION WRESTLING!
The cheers from the crowd reach their apex.
Melody Slayton: And don’t think for a moment that I’m just gonna sit back and rest on my laurels as the rest of this fine roster of upstanding misfits does all the work. See… this Championship means everything to me. It should, considering I waited three years to even get a SHOT at a title in Zion.
She smirks.
Melody Slayton: As part of this new change on Wednesday nights, I want to make sure that as many people as possible get the shots that I waited ages for. That’s why, as of tonight, I am officially announcing the WASTELAND OF OPPORTUNITY OPEN CHALLENGE for this very title! I want anyone and everyone on our brand to step up and show me their very best! Prove to me you want this title more than I do, and you just might get it. But, I gotta warn you…
Melody leans in and grins wickedly.
Melody Slayton: I ain’t letting this Championship go easily. I won’t say ever, because this is pro wrestling and I hate when people say they’re gonna be Champion forever. But the Champ makes the belt, not the other way around - and I’m ready to do my part and make the Wasteland Championship THE premiere title in this company!
A final pause.
Melody Slayton: After all, if we’re gonna be the A-show… we’d better have the A-belt AND the A-champion as well. WASTELANDERS! RISE UP WITH ME AND STORM THE CASTLE THAT IS ZION WRESTLING! LET’S MAKE WEDNESDAY NIGHTS MUST-SEE TV! And as for the other shows?
Melody smirks.
Melody Slayton: You can catch the highlights on YouTube.
She laughs and drops the mic as “The Final Countdown” begins playing over the sound system once more. Melody poses with the Championship as the crowd roars.
Matt Mears: So, uh… did our Champion just declare war on the rest of Zion Wrestling on behalf of the rest of the roster?
Ben Petrie: It sure seems that way, Matt.
Matt Mears: Tell me she at least cleared that with Mr. Peters first!
Ben Petrie: Your guess is as good as mine. If nothing else, I’m sure this will go down as a memorable first appearance as Wasteland Champion for Melody Slayton. It definitely got me fired up!
MAIN EVENT: Razzles Mars vs Bea Carter
Mars and Carter shuffle the ring around one another, eventually meeting in the middle as Mars extends a hand out to Carter. Carter takes it, with the two exchanging a show of respect before they truly take off in this one. They eventually get things fully going with a Collar-and-Elbow Tie-Up, with Carter getting the initial upper hand with a Wristlock! Mars seems to be in trouble here, but it’s not a spot she hasn’t been in before! She rolls forward to unwring her arm, before twisting Carter into a Wristlock of her own! Carter is now in a struggle, trying her damnedest to escape! But as she struggles, she feels something hit her hand. It was a high five. Mars just gave her a high five. Carter looks up at the former World Champion, utterly confused. This confusion makes way for even more pain, as Mars transitions seamlessly into a Side Headlock, before getting her down for a Takeover! Carter immediately knows how to get out of this one, getting her legs around Mars’ head for a Headscissor that takes her shoulders to the mat!
ONE…!
Kick out by Mars! The two get to their feet, with Carter looking for a swing to Mars to try and regain control! But she rushes underneath it, going for the ropes before jumping off for a Springboard Crossbody! She gets it, but Carter is able to roll through, getting to her feet with Mars in her arms! She props Mars up onto her shoulders, before dropping her with a Death Valley Driver! She follows up now, hitting the ropes before dropping onto her with a Senton! Pin by Carter!
ONE…!
TWO…!
Kick out by Mars! Carter pulls her to her feet, getting her in position for Suplex! She lifts, but Mars is able to escape, landing on her feet behind Carter and pushing her from behind into the ropes! Carter knows better at this point, holding onto the ropes to stall her momentum! But Mars is right on top of her, rushing over to the ropes next to her and dropping her with Konpeitō Torpedo! Tiger Feint Armdrag catches Carter off guard and sends her to the mat! Carter tries to pull herself to her feet, only for Mars to rush in with a Shining Wizard! She covers!
ONE…!
TWO…!
Kick out by Carter! Mars looks to seal the deal here as she goes to the top rope! She waits for Carter to make some headway in getting to her feet, before launching off the Mars Rover! Carter counters the Diving Somersault Leg Drop in one of the most unexpected ways however, catching Mars out of midair and planting her with a Powerbomb! The crowd is going insane at this point, as Carter shows she still has much left in the tank! She rolls Mars back to her feet, before snapping right on her with a Headbutt! Mars stumbles, turning around as Carter gets her in position and drops her with a Tiger Suplex! Mars stacks it right onto the top of her back for a second time! Carter bridges for the pin! This one is over!
ONE…!
TWO…!
THREE-
Kick out by Mars! She’s still in this! Carter looks utterly confused, not knowing what it’s gonna take to put this one away! She backs into the corner, thinking over her next move carefully! She finally figures out what she has to do, but with Mars beginning to make it back to her feet, it could be too late! NO! Carter is able to get a hold of her, looking to seal the deal with Mystery of Mayhem! She attempts to lift Mars for the Inverted Brainbuster, but she’s too far recovered! She won’t budge! The struggle continues, before Mars is eventually able to twist out of position and drop Carter with the Everlasting Gobstopper! Split-Legged Jawbreaker connects! She isn’t finished however, getting to the top rope before planting herself on Carter with the Peppermint Twist! Sky Twister connects! Mars with the pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
THREE!!
