We open up to the middle of a field in St. Louis, Missouri! The usual bright lights and big stands and stages are replaced with simple bleachers with a crowd of locals in attendance, all sitting behind a set of Cattle Gates!
Tripp Bennett: We’re here live and we’re doing it all for charity! Welcome...to Fusion: Field of Screams! I’m Tripp Bennett, joined as always by my broadcast colleague Alivia Takasoto!
Alivia Takasoto: This is definitely an interesting change of scenery for us, Tripp! Makes me feel like we should have class outside more often! But just because we’re in a different place, doesn’t mean we aren’t still bringing you the exciting action that the blue brand is known for! Let’s begin!
The pre recorded scene opens up at Lambert-St. Louis International Airport. There is a white private jet on the runway. The side door to the jet opens. Mobile stairs are wheeled to the door so Zachary Porter, clad in a white suit, can walk down the stairs. He notices a camera crew is there to film whatever is on his mind.
Zachary Porter: “Not everyday a camera crew comes to greet you fresh off an exhausting plane ride. I can imagine what all of you are saying right now, exiting a private jet doesn’t scream broken man who has lost everything. Hey, I still have a few perks from my ownership of the San Antonio Cowgirls. Take advantage of the luxury while I still can right? Life is too short to worry about things like money.”
Zach offers a smile.
Zachary Porter: “You didn’t come here to listen to me talk about a goddamn jet. I’m with you. I don’t want to talk about what little I have either. Due to the unique circumstances surrounding the Field of Screams show I can’t brood in the rafters to address my competition. St. Louis International Airport will have to do. Tonight's six person tag team match is a means to an end, nothing more. I heard Sadie Cassidy is the heroic type, she might play ball. Ana from what I can tell hasn’t come across like an outright bitch, I suppose my partners will be on the up and up.”
Zach tucks his hands into his pockets.
Zachary Porter: “Hello Brooke...”
Zach winks.
Zachary Porter: “People like you exist in a bubble of their own creation, that is the reason why I targetted you to begin with. To shatter the bubble you exist in for your own self development. When you tweeted the other day that if somehow won at Hardwired the spotlight would all of a sudden be on you... Brooke... you could not be so wrong. If by some miracle you overcome the odds at Hardwired, I am still the guy who invaded another wrestling company during their memorial show to open the eyes of the wrestling world to how powerful Zion Wrestling can be. Tell me Brooke, what are your so-called A-List powers doing for this company? Nothing. In your mindscape you created a fiction that has no roots in reality. Don’t worry, I am dedicated to opening your eyes. See you soon.”
And with that, Zachary Porter walks off as the scene fades to black.
The cameras shift right to Gorilla position where Meliana Rodrigo stands, at the ready, clutching her microphone. We can already see a figure approaching from the distance with a fire to their step.
Meliana Rodrigo: Good evening, everyone! Meliana Rodrigo here. We are moments away from our opening contest and I’m just trying to get a quick word with one of th--oh! Here she is! Mai! Mai! Mai! One second, please!
The figure, who turns out to be a woman, which turns out to be Mai Blackman on her way to the ring, stops abruptly and turns right towards Meliana, bowing up on the woman.
Mai Blackman: “My, my my!” You think you’re funny? What do you want?
Meliana’s mouth opens but she stammers.
Meliana Rodrigo: I-I’m sorry, no. I wasn’t making fun--
Meliana jumps a bit as Mai’s hand shoots up like she wants to strike her or grab her but the hand just hovers near her head before closing into a fist.
Mai Blackman: What. The fuck. Do you want?
Mai lowers her hand and steps back, giving Meliana some personal space so she can focus on the task at hand.
Meliana Rodrigo: Mai, you’ve got your third match coming up for the Viral Championship Tournament. Needless to say, you are 0 and 1, currently. Not the best start. You need a win tonight. Where’s your head at, right now?
Mai’s eyebrows lift and she looks Meliana over, sizing her up. Almost as if she’s saying “you got some guts, huh?”
Mai Blackman: If it’s needless to say, then why did you even say it? Congratulations, you just played yourself. I know I’m 0 and 1. Can I still win this? Maybe. I haven’t sat down to do the mat. I need to get wins and I need others to lose tonight. Not gonna look over my shoulder and back talk my previous opponent. Jordan did her thing. Big fucking whoop. Most people in my situation would run off crying like little bitches, feeling like it’s the end for them but that’s quitting and I’ve never quit in my fucking life. Most of these people here don’t know what real struggle is. Get knocked down, get your ass up and dust off. I said I was gonna be a champion here in Zion and there isn’t a damn thing that’s gonna stop me.
Getting fired up, Mai reaches into her waistband and pulls out her mouthguard as Meliana nods and poses another question.
Meliana Rodrigo: Sounds like the words of a warrior to me--
Mai Blackman: You’re goddamn, fucking right.
Meliana Rodrigo: Mai, do you have any words for your opponent here, tonight, Celeste Ciel?
Mai chuckles a bit as she sticks her mouthguard in. She doesn’t say a word. She just leans into the camera and gives a wicked smile, bearing her mouthguard and the words “BORN TO KILL” decaled on it. Out in the arena, the sound of Voodoo Johnson’s “United Divided” can be heard starting up as Mai pulls her hair out of the bun she usually keeps it in and throws her towel over the lens of the camera. Meliana pulls the towel off, leaving the shot with a final view of Mai storming through the curtain and out to the ring.
Tripp Bennett: Here we go, folks!
Alivia Takasoto: Whoo, she looks fired up! I like it!!
Match #1: Mai Blackman vs Celeste Ciel
Viral Championship Tournament Match

And her opponent, from New Orleans, Louisiana...weighing in at 128 lbs...Celeste! Ciel!
Tripp Bennett: Celeste Ciel is 1-0 in this tournament at the expense of the former adversary of her opponent tonight! How do you think Mai Blackman will fare knowing this?
Alivia Takasoto: Mai Blackman is focused on the destruction of Celeste Ciel here tonight! She will not leave with anything less than a win here!
The bell rings and Ciel and Blackman get in for a collar and elbow tie up! Ciel gets control early on managing to push Blackman back into the corner! The referee tries to break it up, threatening to start a five count, but Blackman gives him no need, giving herself enough room to pick the ankle! Ciel hits the mat backfirst, before Blackman swoops in with a Guillotine Choke! Despite being close to the ropes, Ciel refuses to break the move, even going so far as to put her hands up to show how easily she can make the reach! Blackman’s confusion begins to grow as she starts to feel a slight shake under her arm! Ciel is...laughing?
Blackman wrenches the Guillotine in more, but all it does is drive Ciel’s laughter further, with her even throwing a moan in! This sets Blackman off, as she releases the hold, yanks Ciel off the mat, and starts laying into her! She holds Ciel up by her hair, kneeing her in the midsection repeatedly! The referee starts his five count, prompting Blackman to toss her away! This proves to be a mistake, however, with the craving for pain driving Ciel to make a move immediately! She quickly gets to her feet, darting at Blackman as she turns around and smacking her with a Kick across the midsection that sends her doubling into the corner! Ciel capitalizes, running to the corner and hitting her with a Knee Lift! She rolls back and runs to Blackman again, this time with a European Uppercut! Blackman slumps down as Ciel goes for the pin!
ONE…!
TWO...!
Kick out by Blackman straight into a Scissorhold Headlock by Blackman! Ciel begins her laughter once more, however she’s quickly fading and knows it! She tries to escape to no avail, eventually settling her shoulders on the mat, prompting the referee to start a three count!
ONE…!
TWO…!
Ciel gets her shoulder up, and is now filled with a bit more energy, as she works her way up to her feet! She gets to a vertical base with Blackman in tow, managing to transition her into a Wheelbarrow position! She lifts Blackman up with the Wheelbarrow, before driving her down to a lifted knee to the stomach! Blackman rolls off the attack, being dumped backfirst onto the mat by Ciel! She sits up, hoping to recover, but Ciel capitalizes, sending a stiff knee to the back of Blackman’s head! Ciel with the cover now!
ONE…!
TWO…!
TH-
Kick out by Blackman! Ciel decides that she’s done playing with her food, lifting Blackman to her feet, before going for a Snapmare! But she’s unable to hit the kick to finish off her signature maneuver, with Blackman grabbing hold of the leg and tripping her forward before applying an Inverted Kneebar! You would think that Ciel would be completely done for, but the laughter just continues! Blackman has had enough of this, breaking the hold to smack Ciel on the back of the head with a Kick! She gets Ciel to her feet to perform another move, but Ciel has it scouted, pushing her towards the ropes! Blackman returns to an ARM TRAP RELEASE GERMAN SUPLEX!! Ciel bridges for the pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
THRE-
Kick out by Blackman! Ciel is seemingly excited with this prolonging the match, as she’s now ready to finish Blackman off! She rushes to the corner and waits for Blackman to reach her feet, seemingly looking for Se Ruiner! Blackman gets up, her back turned to her opposition. Ciel runs to her, but NO! Blackman catches her with the CHICAGO KISS, before immediately following with THE SYSTEM!! The two heavy shots send Ciel to the mat, but Blackman’s not taking any chances, grabbing a fist full of tights as she goes for the pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
THREE!
Alex Lawson: The winner of this match...Mai! Blackman!
Tripp Bennett: Mai Blackman evens the odds in this tournament here at the expense of Celeste Ciel!
Alivia Takasoto: You know that Celeste Ciel isn’t gonna walk away from this even slightly satisfied...in any sense of the word!
Blackman rolls out of the ring and looks towards the display of the Viral Championship. Ciel rolls to her knees, almost in a rage as we fade out.
WINNER: MAI BLACKMAN (VIA PINFALL)

Ana Evans takes the ring for her team and Delilah happily hops into the ring to meet her.

King nods to the crowd as he walks to the middle of the ring and then sprints in with a boot to the chest! Ana drops to the mat and avoids it! She rolls into the corner and dives and tags in Sadie!
Sadie sprints into the ring and dives with a flying forearm and smashes Jayden in the back. She kicks at his knees over and over and then wraps her arms around from behind and goes for a back suplex! She struggles to get the massive frame of King up, but eventually she does and drops him hard on the back of his neck! King tries to roll to his corner, but Sadie grabs his leg and pulls him back toward her. She stomps at him and then runs to the apron. Right when Jayden stands she hits the buckshot lariat! She hooks the leg!
ONE…
TWO…
Brooke Cartwright stomps on the back of Sadie to break up the pin. Zachary Porter runs into the ring and brawls with Cartwright. Both throw rights and lefts before the official gets involved. Brooke heads to the outside and the distraction allows Jayden to gouge Sadie’s eyes and tag in Cartwright. Porter protests, but Cartwright just grins as she walks over to Sadie and takes advantage of the distraction by pulling her hair and stomping at the back of her head.
The leading lady helps Sadie to her feet and then hits a springboard roundhouse kick! The crowd boos and she asks for more and relishes in it. She hauls Sadie up and shoves her in the corner and chokes her with her foot. She checks her nails while the official counts.
ONE!

Brooke releases her foot and lets Sadie fall. Porter screams at the official who comes over and argues with him. Cartwright stands on Sadie’s throat until the official turns around and she walks around Sadie and mocks her. Sadie reaches for the ropes and Brooke stands on her back and stomps on her neck multiple times as the official gets after her. Brooke laughs as she goes to pick Sadie up. Sadie rolls her into a pin!

Brooke kicks out and Sadie rolls to the corner and tags in Porter! Brooke runs to her corner and tags in a surprised Delilah. Porter runs in and grabs Delilah and suplexes her hard to the mat! Delilah stands up and eats a slingblade right back to the mat. Zachary points at Cartwright and dares her to come in. She waves him away.

The official is getting after her, but Porter landed on his feet on the outside. He slides into the ring and hits a shotgun dropkick that drops Brooke off the apron and she lands face first on it!

Tripp Bennett: Big win by these three here tonight...even if one of them isn’t around to celebrate!
Alivia Takasoto: Yeah, Tripp, this battle may be over, but it seems the war between Cartwright and Porter has just begun!
The two remaining members of the babyface team as we fade out!
The camera cuts to Celeste Ciel sitting on the ground leaned against a wall between a concession stand and a trash can. The camera gets closer to her face as she begins speaking.
Celeste Ciel: Mai Blackman, tonight, you got the best of me and while any other opponent would question why you chose to win in that manner, I am one who can appreciate your opportunistic strategy. I am only upset and angry that I didn't do that to you before you did it to me! Mai, you finally gave me the challenge I was looking for from Fusion's roster, and I'm sure we will share the experience again in the future. I'm not here to talk about you, though, Mai. I could talk about respecting you, but you're a smart woman, I'm sure you already had it figured.
Celeste closes her eyes a moment and bites her bottom lip.
Celeste Ciel: Jordan Majors, I tried to not wait for you by coming for you last week, but someone higher up doesn't want us playing just yet. I am fine waiting now that I've had a taste of real competition and ferociousness. A taste that was delivered by Mai tonigh--
Celeste shakes her head while seemingly trying to shake an image out. Her voice changes to sounding more shaky. Not shaky as in fear, but from her heart beat speeding up. Her lips also appear fuller than usual.
Celeste Ciel: Mai, you obviously made a bigger impact with me tonight that I was expecting. We twisted each other and beat each other and....
Celeste's face becomes flush and she tries to compose herself fighting back a pleasure-filled moan that eventually escapes her lips.
Celeste Ciel: Jordan, I am hoping you can do to me what Mai did to me as far as standing toe to toe. I don't want to wait all of this time to have my taste of you be bitter. I want you to feed my addiction completely, but you will not pull a victory out of it like Mai tonight. I am going to indulge myself and my personal desires with you soon because you're next in my path in the tournament. I am wanting you in the ring with me so badly, anyone who would ATTEMPT to interrupt the match would not live to actually follow through. You told me before you were going to have me go to sleep in your arms. As nice as being in your arms sounds, that will not be happening. I want to enjoy every moment I have with you and, just as I begged you to come to Zion and face me, I'm now begging you to not forget about my initial attack and turn your full vengeance against me. I want to face a Jordan Majors that nobody else has faced before. If you are able, beat me down to where I am barely able to survive, but do me a favor and let me survive so I may enjoy the pain you have inflicted on my body. I will do the same back to you and SHOULD you get the opportunity to defeat me in that ring.... You will have to BREAK ME to beat me. Give me a little something to remember you by and enjoy until I am able to come back for you and deal it back. As delightful as that sounds, as EROTIC as that sounds, I may have to deny myself that pleasure and instead gain victory. Edge me to the limit and break me to send me over or I will indulge myself in moderation and pull the victory. Yes, that second option is sounding a lot more enticing. After all, what is more erotic than getting what I want from you and denying you what you want from me? I've crawled on floors wanting your touch, to feel you bending my body so badly, but was denied. It's time you feel the pain of denied desires that I've been feeling this whole time for you. Come face me, Jordan, come face me and let's see how what I set in motion from your very premier in Zion plays out. Touche moi maintenant!
Celeste bites her bottom lip again and gets to her feet. She saunters away seductively while the camera fades out, but picks up Celeste humming "Warrior" to herself.
We cut backstage. There's a screeching sound that is heard - the kind of something dragging across the tile floor. With a little heave, Razzles pulls a table, already on its legs, towards herself. It is positioned in front of a monitor that is mounted on the wall backstage. Razzles' pink hair secured in a high ponytail out of her face. In a lavender Jan tee, tied off in the back, and a pair of white denim shorts and purple sneakers. She speaks, while walking out of the frame of the camera.
Razzles Mars: I know what you must be thinkin'... Razzles?
Both arms are full with a metal pot. Placing it onto the table top. There is a large pipe ascending from the pot with rounding spouts. A few alterations being made to the arrangement without even missing a beat.
Razzles Mars: Isn't all this a bit much, mate? And to that I say... not at all.
She smiled, opening a bag of candy melts, placing it into the basin.
Razzles Mars: Tonight's main event is a huge one! And that is worthy of a chocolate waterfall if I ever heard of a reason to be. And by actin' early, I got the best seat in the house that isn't in the crowd.
Razzles plugged in the appliance and flipped it on, beginning to organize a spread of sweets to dip into the chocolate: berries, (handmade) marshmallows, graham crackers, more chocolate. All the best. Lining them up on a paper towel and finally setting a chair behind the table.
Razzles Mars: I've been keeping tabs on Eddie and the Backyardigans for a few weeks now. From saving Cass Bummer... in a decision that I've come to regret more and more as she reveals her true, muddy colours... to throwing down my challenge and seeing his corwardice on display once again. Tonight, it's different. It is a no-lose situation for me. As I've said. I truly consider myself next in line for an opportunity to become Youtube Champion. I answered the open challenge that Eddie was too frightened to accept...
She presses her lips together, a little shrug following.
Razzles Mars: I didn't know I was so scary... sorry about that, mate...
Razzles stuck a marshmallow onto a metal skewer, watching a little less than patiently as the chocolate melted.
Razzles Mars: So the options for me are either finally getting my hands on Eddie and prying the Youtube Championship away from him and onto the shoulder of someone who will actually reign as a fighting champion... or Victoria Salinas, who I know would be a fighting champion. She is incredibly accomplished and being in the ring with her would make me a better competitor. She and I would tear the house down! It's a win-win for me, regardless of who leaves with the championship tonight, because it'll either be an ace fight with Victoria, or Eddie no longer being able to delay the inevitable.
The chocolate has started to pour, falling from one platform to the other. Razzles dunks her marshmallow into the chocolate, coating it thoroughly, her green eyes turning to the screen eagerly.
Razzles Mars: And regardless of what some hack journalist with all of the charisma and likability of the after-effect of sugar-free gummy bears may think? I'm next in line. All that's left to be seen is if I'm the next Youtube Champion... or the next-NEXT Youtube Champion. I can't wait to see who I meet in the ring.
She smiled, taking a bite out of her large, square marshmallow. Giving her legs an excited little kick as she watches the show, preparing for the upcoming main event. We transition away from this backstage segment.
Match #3: Jordan Majors vs Lass Haliday
Viral Championship Tournament Match
Written by TAURUS
Alex Lawson: The following contest...is scheduled for one fall...
Crowd: ONE FALL!
Alex Lawson: And is a Viral Championship Tournament Match
Introducing first...from Los Angeles, California...weighing in at 130 lbs...Jordan! Majors!
And her opponent...from Osmk, Russia...weighing in at 195 lbs…”The Oncoming Storm”...Lass! Haliday!
Tripp Bennett: We again stumble into the same scenario as before! Celeste Ciel came up short earlier against Mai Blackman, and if Majors doesn’t come out with a win tonight all four competitors on Side A of this tournament will be tied 1-1!
Alivia Takasoto: This is a huge moment for Majors! She could score a huge advantage here by staying undefeated and remaining ahead of the pack! All she has to do is stay focused on her opposition here! The Oncoming Storm is no one to sleep on!
The bell rings and the ladies circle before exchanging a quick handshake. They circle off and Jordan Majors moves in for the lock up. Lass locks up, pushes Jordan back a few steps and then shoves her off. Jordan rolls through, pops up and looks at Lass for a second. The stern faced Lass just gives a bit of a shrug and welcomes Jordan to go again. Jordan does go in for the lock up once more, or at least she makes Lass think that’s what she’s doing. Jordan slips behind Lass, and takes the left arm of her larger opponent. Jordan wrenches the arm and looks to transition into a hammerlock, but Lass uses her power pulls Jordan forward and hits a forearm. Lass now slips behind Jordan and powers her up and over for a German Suplex. Lass stays on the attack as she brings Jordan up and decides to play to the crowd a little bit with a delayed vertical suplex. The suplex party wasn’t stopping there though. Lass took Jordan on a trip to see the Northern lights. Lass bridges into the pin off the picture perfect suplex and gets a close 2 count. Lass brings Jordan back to her feet and powers the smaller woman up for a belly to back attempt that gets countered with a cross body. Jordan rolls off, hits the ropes and comes back with a dropkick. Lass is staggered and Jordan continues her quick attacks with a huricanrana that sends the Oncoming storm thundering into the corner. Jordan charges in with a corner splash, quickly follows it with a bulldog, and finishes with a beautiful springboard moonsault for a super close near fall. Lass rolls to the ropes and slowly gets to her feet just in time to catch Jordan as looks for Chapter 11. Lass manages to shove Jordan off and she rolls through again. Jordan ducks a big clothesline attempt, stops and delivers a vicious superkick that sends Lass into the corner in perfect position. Jordan rushes to the other side, charges in and Jordan hits Donk Bonk. Lass stumbles out of the corner and falls allowing Jordan to cover
ONE…
TWO…
THR- KICK OUT!
Jordan looks up at the ref a little bit surprised, but she nods and gets herself set, circling around Lass a bit as she waits for her to get up. As Jordan moves towards the ropes when Lass gets to a knee, she gets an idea. As Lass is almost up, Jordan jumps to the middle rope and looks for the Cash Out, but Lass levels her with a clothesline right in the back. Lass shakes the cobwebs and lets Jordan slowly get to her feet before she starts in with some quick punches. Lass mixes up head, body, head, body,lefts and rights, just peppering Jordan with shots until she hits a spinning backfist and then the Cold Snap to completely turn things around. Lass makes the cover and she may have this
ONE…
TWO…
THRE - FINGERS ON THE ROPE!
Lass looks up at the ref, then over to Jordan far arm. Lass slams her fist on the mat, gets up at kicks the rope as she seems frustrated almost more at herself for not pulling Jordan’s arm in when she made the pin. Lass pulls Jordan up off the mat and catches a forearm right to the temple. Lass is a bit rocked and staggers back. Jordan notices, hits the ropes and delivers a big European uppercut. Lass steps back a bit and gets caught with a hard spinning sole butt to the midsection. Lass goes down to a knee as Jordan hits the ropes and delivers a headscissors DDT. Jordan is rolling along as she goes up to the top rope and flies off with an incredible cross body that wipes Lass off, taking The Oncoming Storm off her feet. Jordan rolls off the cross body, hits the ropes and as Lass is just to her feet, Jordan jumps up and hits Chapter 11. Jordan quickly makes the cover
ONE…
TWO…
THRE- KICK OUT!
Both women lay on the mat looking exhausted. They each take some time to catch their breath, just letting the ref count. Jordan is up first at seven and Lass is up soon after. Jordan goes to her quick kicks attacking the legs of Lass, looking to chop the tree. Lass almost buckles when Jordan kicks her in the left knee, and Majors takes notes targeting the knees until Lass falls to a knee. Jordan hits a low superkick to rock Lass before she hits the ropes and comes in with a running shotgun-style dropkick that sends Lass to her back. Jordan goes to the top rope, climbing a little slow, Jordan is up top, looks down at Lass, then out to “the fans” before she flies off the top rope with a Phoenix Splash, crashing down onto the kness of Lass Haliday. Again both women are down, Jordan clutching her ribs while Lass clutches her left knee. Both women slowly get to their feet and Lass is the first to attack with a massive lariat, swinging wildly and connecting with their air as Jordan ducks under it, runs to the ropes and comes back with a flying clothesline only to once again gets taken out of mid-air, this time courtesy of Drago’s Revenge. Jordan drops down to the mat, but Lass decides to make sure Jordan is done for, so she lifts her up and delivers The Solstice. After spiking Jordan, Lass pulls her towards the middle of the ring, tucks her arms in and hooks both legs.
ONE…
TWO…
THREE!
Alex Lawson: The winner of this match...Lass! Haliday!
Tripp Bennett: Lass Haliday gets the win, but she also just made this side of things all the more complicated!
Alivia Takasoto: With that win, all four Side A competitors in this tournament are now tied at 1-1, meaning that there will almost certainly have to be a tiebreaker match no matter how you slice it!
WINNER: LASS HALIDAY (VIA PINFALL)
Tripp Bennett: We’re here live and we’re doing it all for charity! Welcome...to Fusion: Field of Screams! I’m Tripp Bennett, joined as always by my broadcast colleague Alivia Takasoto!
Alivia Takasoto: This is definitely an interesting change of scenery for us, Tripp! Makes me feel like we should have class outside more often! But just because we’re in a different place, doesn’t mean we aren’t still bringing you the exciting action that the blue brand is known for! Let’s begin!
The pre recorded scene opens up at Lambert-St. Louis International Airport. There is a white private jet on the runway. The side door to the jet opens. Mobile stairs are wheeled to the door so Zachary Porter, clad in a white suit, can walk down the stairs. He notices a camera crew is there to film whatever is on his mind.
Zachary Porter: “Not everyday a camera crew comes to greet you fresh off an exhausting plane ride. I can imagine what all of you are saying right now, exiting a private jet doesn’t scream broken man who has lost everything. Hey, I still have a few perks from my ownership of the San Antonio Cowgirls. Take advantage of the luxury while I still can right? Life is too short to worry about things like money.”
Zach offers a smile.
Zachary Porter: “You didn’t come here to listen to me talk about a goddamn jet. I’m with you. I don’t want to talk about what little I have either. Due to the unique circumstances surrounding the Field of Screams show I can’t brood in the rafters to address my competition. St. Louis International Airport will have to do. Tonight's six person tag team match is a means to an end, nothing more. I heard Sadie Cassidy is the heroic type, she might play ball. Ana from what I can tell hasn’t come across like an outright bitch, I suppose my partners will be on the up and up.”
Zach tucks his hands into his pockets.
Zachary Porter: “Hello Brooke...”
Zach winks.
Zachary Porter: “People like you exist in a bubble of their own creation, that is the reason why I targetted you to begin with. To shatter the bubble you exist in for your own self development. When you tweeted the other day that if somehow won at Hardwired the spotlight would all of a sudden be on you... Brooke... you could not be so wrong. If by some miracle you overcome the odds at Hardwired, I am still the guy who invaded another wrestling company during their memorial show to open the eyes of the wrestling world to how powerful Zion Wrestling can be. Tell me Brooke, what are your so-called A-List powers doing for this company? Nothing. In your mindscape you created a fiction that has no roots in reality. Don’t worry, I am dedicated to opening your eyes. See you soon.”
And with that, Zachary Porter walks off as the scene fades to black.
The cameras shift right to Gorilla position where Meliana Rodrigo stands, at the ready, clutching her microphone. We can already see a figure approaching from the distance with a fire to their step.
Meliana Rodrigo: Good evening, everyone! Meliana Rodrigo here. We are moments away from our opening contest and I’m just trying to get a quick word with one of th--oh! Here she is! Mai! Mai! Mai! One second, please!
The figure, who turns out to be a woman, which turns out to be Mai Blackman on her way to the ring, stops abruptly and turns right towards Meliana, bowing up on the woman.
Mai Blackman: “My, my my!” You think you’re funny? What do you want?
Meliana’s mouth opens but she stammers.
Meliana Rodrigo: I-I’m sorry, no. I wasn’t making fun--
Meliana jumps a bit as Mai’s hand shoots up like she wants to strike her or grab her but the hand just hovers near her head before closing into a fist.
Mai Blackman: What. The fuck. Do you want?
Mai lowers her hand and steps back, giving Meliana some personal space so she can focus on the task at hand.
Meliana Rodrigo: Mai, you’ve got your third match coming up for the Viral Championship Tournament. Needless to say, you are 0 and 1, currently. Not the best start. You need a win tonight. Where’s your head at, right now?
Mai’s eyebrows lift and she looks Meliana over, sizing her up. Almost as if she’s saying “you got some guts, huh?”
Mai Blackman: If it’s needless to say, then why did you even say it? Congratulations, you just played yourself. I know I’m 0 and 1. Can I still win this? Maybe. I haven’t sat down to do the mat. I need to get wins and I need others to lose tonight. Not gonna look over my shoulder and back talk my previous opponent. Jordan did her thing. Big fucking whoop. Most people in my situation would run off crying like little bitches, feeling like it’s the end for them but that’s quitting and I’ve never quit in my fucking life. Most of these people here don’t know what real struggle is. Get knocked down, get your ass up and dust off. I said I was gonna be a champion here in Zion and there isn’t a damn thing that’s gonna stop me.
Getting fired up, Mai reaches into her waistband and pulls out her mouthguard as Meliana nods and poses another question.
Meliana Rodrigo: Sounds like the words of a warrior to me--
Mai Blackman: You’re goddamn, fucking right.
Meliana Rodrigo: Mai, do you have any words for your opponent here, tonight, Celeste Ciel?
Mai chuckles a bit as she sticks her mouthguard in. She doesn’t say a word. She just leans into the camera and gives a wicked smile, bearing her mouthguard and the words “BORN TO KILL” decaled on it. Out in the arena, the sound of Voodoo Johnson’s “United Divided” can be heard starting up as Mai pulls her hair out of the bun she usually keeps it in and throws her towel over the lens of the camera. Meliana pulls the towel off, leaving the shot with a final view of Mai storming through the curtain and out to the ring.
Tripp Bennett: Here we go, folks!
Alivia Takasoto: Whoo, she looks fired up! I like it!!

Alivia Takasoto: Mai Blackman is focused on the destruction of Celeste Ciel here tonight! She will not leave with anything less than a win here!
The bell rings and Ciel and Blackman get in for a collar and elbow tie up! Ciel gets control early on managing to push Blackman back into the corner! The referee tries to break it up, threatening to start a five count, but Blackman gives him no need, giving herself enough room to pick the ankle! Ciel hits the mat backfirst, before Blackman swoops in with a Guillotine Choke! Despite being close to the ropes, Ciel refuses to break the move, even going so far as to put her hands up to show how easily she can make the reach! Blackman’s confusion begins to grow as she starts to feel a slight shake under her arm! Ciel is...laughing?
Blackman wrenches the Guillotine in more, but all it does is drive Ciel’s laughter further, with her even throwing a moan in! This sets Blackman off, as she releases the hold, yanks Ciel off the mat, and starts laying into her! She holds Ciel up by her hair, kneeing her in the midsection repeatedly! The referee starts his five count, prompting Blackman to toss her away! This proves to be a mistake, however, with the craving for pain driving Ciel to make a move immediately! She quickly gets to her feet, darting at Blackman as she turns around and smacking her with a Kick across the midsection that sends her doubling into the corner! Ciel capitalizes, running to the corner and hitting her with a Knee Lift! She rolls back and runs to Blackman again, this time with a European Uppercut! Blackman slumps down as Ciel goes for the pin!

ONE…!
TWO…!
Ciel gets her shoulder up, and is now filled with a bit more energy, as she works her way up to her feet! She gets to a vertical base with Blackman in tow, managing to transition her into a Wheelbarrow position! She lifts Blackman up with the Wheelbarrow, before driving her down to a lifted knee to the stomach! Blackman rolls off the attack, being dumped backfirst onto the mat by Ciel! She sits up, hoping to recover, but Ciel capitalizes, sending a stiff knee to the back of Blackman’s head! Ciel with the cover now!
ONE…!
TWO…!
TH-
Kick out by Blackman! Ciel decides that she’s done playing with her food, lifting Blackman to her feet, before going for a Snapmare! But she’s unable to hit the kick to finish off her signature maneuver, with Blackman grabbing hold of the leg and tripping her forward before applying an Inverted Kneebar! You would think that Ciel would be completely done for, but the laughter just continues! Blackman has had enough of this, breaking the hold to smack Ciel on the back of the head with a Kick! She gets Ciel to her feet to perform another move, but Ciel has it scouted, pushing her towards the ropes! Blackman returns to an ARM TRAP RELEASE GERMAN SUPLEX!! Ciel bridges for the pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
THRE-
Kick out by Blackman! Ciel is seemingly excited with this prolonging the match, as she’s now ready to finish Blackman off! She rushes to the corner and waits for Blackman to reach her feet, seemingly looking for Se Ruiner! Blackman gets up, her back turned to her opposition. Ciel runs to her, but NO! Blackman catches her with the CHICAGO KISS, before immediately following with THE SYSTEM!! The two heavy shots send Ciel to the mat, but Blackman’s not taking any chances, grabbing a fist full of tights as she goes for the pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
THREE!
Alex Lawson: The winner of this match...Mai! Blackman!
Tripp Bennett: Mai Blackman evens the odds in this tournament here at the expense of Celeste Ciel!
Alivia Takasoto: You know that Celeste Ciel isn’t gonna walk away from this even slightly satisfied...in any sense of the word!
Blackman rolls out of the ring and looks towards the display of the Viral Championship. Ciel rolls to her knees, almost in a rage as we fade out.
WINNER: MAI BLACKMAN (VIA PINFALL)

Brooke Cartwright stomps on the back of Sadie to break up the pin. Zachary Porter runs into the ring and brawls with Cartwright. Both throw rights and lefts before the official gets involved. Brooke heads to the outside and the distraction allows Jayden to gouge Sadie’s eyes and tag in Cartwright. Porter protests, but Cartwright just grins as she walks over to Sadie and takes advantage of the distraction by pulling her hair and stomping at the back of her head.
The leading lady helps Sadie to her feet and then hits a springboard roundhouse kick! The crowd boos and she asks for more and relishes in it. She hauls Sadie up and shoves her in the corner and chokes her with her foot. She checks her nails while the official counts.

Alivia Takasoto: Yeah, Tripp, this battle may be over, but it seems the war between Cartwright and Porter has just begun!
The two remaining members of the babyface team as we fade out!
The camera cuts to Celeste Ciel sitting on the ground leaned against a wall between a concession stand and a trash can. The camera gets closer to her face as she begins speaking.
Celeste Ciel: Mai Blackman, tonight, you got the best of me and while any other opponent would question why you chose to win in that manner, I am one who can appreciate your opportunistic strategy. I am only upset and angry that I didn't do that to you before you did it to me! Mai, you finally gave me the challenge I was looking for from Fusion's roster, and I'm sure we will share the experience again in the future. I'm not here to talk about you, though, Mai. I could talk about respecting you, but you're a smart woman, I'm sure you already had it figured.
Celeste closes her eyes a moment and bites her bottom lip.
Celeste Ciel: Jordan Majors, I tried to not wait for you by coming for you last week, but someone higher up doesn't want us playing just yet. I am fine waiting now that I've had a taste of real competition and ferociousness. A taste that was delivered by Mai tonigh--
Celeste shakes her head while seemingly trying to shake an image out. Her voice changes to sounding more shaky. Not shaky as in fear, but from her heart beat speeding up. Her lips also appear fuller than usual.
Celeste Ciel: Mai, you obviously made a bigger impact with me tonight that I was expecting. We twisted each other and beat each other and....
Celeste's face becomes flush and she tries to compose herself fighting back a pleasure-filled moan that eventually escapes her lips.
Celeste Ciel: Jordan, I am hoping you can do to me what Mai did to me as far as standing toe to toe. I don't want to wait all of this time to have my taste of you be bitter. I want you to feed my addiction completely, but you will not pull a victory out of it like Mai tonight. I am going to indulge myself and my personal desires with you soon because you're next in my path in the tournament. I am wanting you in the ring with me so badly, anyone who would ATTEMPT to interrupt the match would not live to actually follow through. You told me before you were going to have me go to sleep in your arms. As nice as being in your arms sounds, that will not be happening. I want to enjoy every moment I have with you and, just as I begged you to come to Zion and face me, I'm now begging you to not forget about my initial attack and turn your full vengeance against me. I want to face a Jordan Majors that nobody else has faced before. If you are able, beat me down to where I am barely able to survive, but do me a favor and let me survive so I may enjoy the pain you have inflicted on my body. I will do the same back to you and SHOULD you get the opportunity to defeat me in that ring.... You will have to BREAK ME to beat me. Give me a little something to remember you by and enjoy until I am able to come back for you and deal it back. As delightful as that sounds, as EROTIC as that sounds, I may have to deny myself that pleasure and instead gain victory. Edge me to the limit and break me to send me over or I will indulge myself in moderation and pull the victory. Yes, that second option is sounding a lot more enticing. After all, what is more erotic than getting what I want from you and denying you what you want from me? I've crawled on floors wanting your touch, to feel you bending my body so badly, but was denied. It's time you feel the pain of denied desires that I've been feeling this whole time for you. Come face me, Jordan, come face me and let's see how what I set in motion from your very premier in Zion plays out. Touche moi maintenant!
Celeste bites her bottom lip again and gets to her feet. She saunters away seductively while the camera fades out, but picks up Celeste humming "Warrior" to herself.
We cut backstage. There's a screeching sound that is heard - the kind of something dragging across the tile floor. With a little heave, Razzles pulls a table, already on its legs, towards herself. It is positioned in front of a monitor that is mounted on the wall backstage. Razzles' pink hair secured in a high ponytail out of her face. In a lavender Jan tee, tied off in the back, and a pair of white denim shorts and purple sneakers. She speaks, while walking out of the frame of the camera.
Razzles Mars: I know what you must be thinkin'... Razzles?
Both arms are full with a metal pot. Placing it onto the table top. There is a large pipe ascending from the pot with rounding spouts. A few alterations being made to the arrangement without even missing a beat.
Razzles Mars: Isn't all this a bit much, mate? And to that I say... not at all.
She smiled, opening a bag of candy melts, placing it into the basin.
Razzles Mars: Tonight's main event is a huge one! And that is worthy of a chocolate waterfall if I ever heard of a reason to be. And by actin' early, I got the best seat in the house that isn't in the crowd.
Razzles plugged in the appliance and flipped it on, beginning to organize a spread of sweets to dip into the chocolate: berries, (handmade) marshmallows, graham crackers, more chocolate. All the best. Lining them up on a paper towel and finally setting a chair behind the table.
Razzles Mars: I've been keeping tabs on Eddie and the Backyardigans for a few weeks now. From saving Cass Bummer... in a decision that I've come to regret more and more as she reveals her true, muddy colours... to throwing down my challenge and seeing his corwardice on display once again. Tonight, it's different. It is a no-lose situation for me. As I've said. I truly consider myself next in line for an opportunity to become Youtube Champion. I answered the open challenge that Eddie was too frightened to accept...
She presses her lips together, a little shrug following.
Razzles Mars: I didn't know I was so scary... sorry about that, mate...
Razzles stuck a marshmallow onto a metal skewer, watching a little less than patiently as the chocolate melted.
Razzles Mars: So the options for me are either finally getting my hands on Eddie and prying the Youtube Championship away from him and onto the shoulder of someone who will actually reign as a fighting champion... or Victoria Salinas, who I know would be a fighting champion. She is incredibly accomplished and being in the ring with her would make me a better competitor. She and I would tear the house down! It's a win-win for me, regardless of who leaves with the championship tonight, because it'll either be an ace fight with Victoria, or Eddie no longer being able to delay the inevitable.
The chocolate has started to pour, falling from one platform to the other. Razzles dunks her marshmallow into the chocolate, coating it thoroughly, her green eyes turning to the screen eagerly.
Razzles Mars: And regardless of what some hack journalist with all of the charisma and likability of the after-effect of sugar-free gummy bears may think? I'm next in line. All that's left to be seen is if I'm the next Youtube Champion... or the next-NEXT Youtube Champion. I can't wait to see who I meet in the ring.
She smiled, taking a bite out of her large, square marshmallow. Giving her legs an excited little kick as she watches the show, preparing for the upcoming main event. We transition away from this backstage segment.
Match #3: Jordan Majors vs Lass Haliday
Viral Championship Tournament Match
Written by TAURUS
Alex Lawson: The following contest...is scheduled for one fall...
Crowd: ONE FALL!
Alex Lawson: And is a Viral Championship Tournament Match
Introducing first...from Los Angeles, California...weighing in at 130 lbs...Jordan! Majors!
And her opponent...from Osmk, Russia...weighing in at 195 lbs…”The Oncoming Storm”...Lass! Haliday!
Tripp Bennett: We again stumble into the same scenario as before! Celeste Ciel came up short earlier against Mai Blackman, and if Majors doesn’t come out with a win tonight all four competitors on Side A of this tournament will be tied 1-1!
Alivia Takasoto: This is a huge moment for Majors! She could score a huge advantage here by staying undefeated and remaining ahead of the pack! All she has to do is stay focused on her opposition here! The Oncoming Storm is no one to sleep on!
The bell rings and the ladies circle before exchanging a quick handshake. They circle off and Jordan Majors moves in for the lock up. Lass locks up, pushes Jordan back a few steps and then shoves her off. Jordan rolls through, pops up and looks at Lass for a second. The stern faced Lass just gives a bit of a shrug and welcomes Jordan to go again. Jordan does go in for the lock up once more, or at least she makes Lass think that’s what she’s doing. Jordan slips behind Lass, and takes the left arm of her larger opponent. Jordan wrenches the arm and looks to transition into a hammerlock, but Lass uses her power pulls Jordan forward and hits a forearm. Lass now slips behind Jordan and powers her up and over for a German Suplex. Lass stays on the attack as she brings Jordan up and decides to play to the crowd a little bit with a delayed vertical suplex. The suplex party wasn’t stopping there though. Lass took Jordan on a trip to see the Northern lights. Lass bridges into the pin off the picture perfect suplex and gets a close 2 count. Lass brings Jordan back to her feet and powers the smaller woman up for a belly to back attempt that gets countered with a cross body. Jordan rolls off, hits the ropes and comes back with a dropkick. Lass is staggered and Jordan continues her quick attacks with a huricanrana that sends the Oncoming storm thundering into the corner. Jordan charges in with a corner splash, quickly follows it with a bulldog, and finishes with a beautiful springboard moonsault for a super close near fall. Lass rolls to the ropes and slowly gets to her feet just in time to catch Jordan as looks for Chapter 11. Lass manages to shove Jordan off and she rolls through again. Jordan ducks a big clothesline attempt, stops and delivers a vicious superkick that sends Lass into the corner in perfect position. Jordan rushes to the other side, charges in and Jordan hits Donk Bonk. Lass stumbles out of the corner and falls allowing Jordan to cover
ONE…
TWO…
THR- KICK OUT!
Jordan looks up at the ref a little bit surprised, but she nods and gets herself set, circling around Lass a bit as she waits for her to get up. As Jordan moves towards the ropes when Lass gets to a knee, she gets an idea. As Lass is almost up, Jordan jumps to the middle rope and looks for the Cash Out, but Lass levels her with a clothesline right in the back. Lass shakes the cobwebs and lets Jordan slowly get to her feet before she starts in with some quick punches. Lass mixes up head, body, head, body,lefts and rights, just peppering Jordan with shots until she hits a spinning backfist and then the Cold Snap to completely turn things around. Lass makes the cover and she may have this
ONE…
TWO…
THRE - FINGERS ON THE ROPE!
Lass looks up at the ref, then over to Jordan far arm. Lass slams her fist on the mat, gets up at kicks the rope as she seems frustrated almost more at herself for not pulling Jordan’s arm in when she made the pin. Lass pulls Jordan up off the mat and catches a forearm right to the temple. Lass is a bit rocked and staggers back. Jordan notices, hits the ropes and delivers a big European uppercut. Lass steps back a bit and gets caught with a hard spinning sole butt to the midsection. Lass goes down to a knee as Jordan hits the ropes and delivers a headscissors DDT. Jordan is rolling along as she goes up to the top rope and flies off with an incredible cross body that wipes Lass off, taking The Oncoming Storm off her feet. Jordan rolls off the cross body, hits the ropes and as Lass is just to her feet, Jordan jumps up and hits Chapter 11. Jordan quickly makes the cover
ONE…
TWO…
THRE- KICK OUT!
Both women lay on the mat looking exhausted. They each take some time to catch their breath, just letting the ref count. Jordan is up first at seven and Lass is up soon after. Jordan goes to her quick kicks attacking the legs of Lass, looking to chop the tree. Lass almost buckles when Jordan kicks her in the left knee, and Majors takes notes targeting the knees until Lass falls to a knee. Jordan hits a low superkick to rock Lass before she hits the ropes and comes in with a running shotgun-style dropkick that sends Lass to her back. Jordan goes to the top rope, climbing a little slow, Jordan is up top, looks down at Lass, then out to “the fans” before she flies off the top rope with a Phoenix Splash, crashing down onto the kness of Lass Haliday. Again both women are down, Jordan clutching her ribs while Lass clutches her left knee. Both women slowly get to their feet and Lass is the first to attack with a massive lariat, swinging wildly and connecting with their air as Jordan ducks under it, runs to the ropes and comes back with a flying clothesline only to once again gets taken out of mid-air, this time courtesy of Drago’s Revenge. Jordan drops down to the mat, but Lass decides to make sure Jordan is done for, so she lifts her up and delivers The Solstice. After spiking Jordan, Lass pulls her towards the middle of the ring, tucks her arms in and hooks both legs.
ONE…
TWO…
THREE!
Alex Lawson: The winner of this match...Lass! Haliday!
Tripp Bennett: Lass Haliday gets the win, but she also just made this side of things all the more complicated!
Alivia Takasoto: With that win, all four Side A competitors in this tournament are now tied at 1-1, meaning that there will almost certainly have to be a tiebreaker match no matter how you slice it!
WINNER: LASS HALIDAY (VIA PINFALL)
