Match #1: Helena Handbasket vs Jordan Majors©
Viral Championship Match
Writer: Jordan

Alex Lawson: The following contest...is scheduled for one fall…

Crowd: ONE FALL!

Alex Lawson: And is for the Zion Wrestling Viral Championship!



Come Baby Come by K7 hits and Helena comes sliding out from behind the curtain, with her trusty golf club held over her shoulder in one hand. She skips to a stop and starts dancing along, doing what can only be called a rather hip gyrating 'crotch centric' dance. Looking every bit like a high school boy at the moment and not a female wrestler. She skips down the entrance ramp, doing crotch thrusts to the line 'Do you love me?' in the song. She stops in the middle of the ramp to swing the golf club like a baseball bat.



The lights go down and then red lights blink on the stage as “Warrior” by Stitched Up Heart begins to play.

Warrior… Warrior…
I’m… I’m a…
Warrior… Warrior…
I’m… I’m a Warrior!

A spotlight shines on the center of the stage to show Jordan Majors from behind, arms outstretched. She turns around right as the guitar riffs and pumps a fist with a smile across her face. She looks out at the crowd and nods a few times before she begins walking down the ramp.

Jordan keeps her eyes on the ring as she heads down the rampway. She gets to the bottom of the ramp and surveys the crowd once more before running and sliding into the ring. She stays on her stomach. She leans on her elbows and kicks her feet behind her before rolling to her feet. Jordan runs and jumps up on the nearest corner and puts one arm up as she looks out at the crowd and nods her head.

The lights go down, with the usual spotlights shining over the champion and challenger.

Alex Lawson: Introducing the challenger...from Boston, Massachusetts...weighing in at 130 lbs...HELENA! HANDBASKET!

And her opponent...from Los Angeles, California...weighing in at 130 lbs...she is the Zion Wrestling VIRAL CHAMPION...JORDAN! MAJORS!

The official takes the title from Majors after she raises it in the air, before showing it off to the crowd! He hands it off to the timekeeper as both competitors ready themselves in their corners!



Jordan gets in position to lock up with Helena, but Handbasket takes a step to the middle of the ring and offers a hand. Jordan looks at the crowd and it lightly cheers. She takes a step forward and reaches for the hand. Helena pulls it back! Majors puts her hands on her hips looking annoyed. Helena smirks wide and then flips off Jordan. Majors smacks her hand away and then punches Helena square in the jaw!

Helena stumbles backwards into the ropes and then sprints toward Jordan! Majors drops to the mat and Handbasket hops over. Jordan stands and goes for a short arm clothesline! Helena ducks that and rebounds from the other side. Helena leaps up and hits a hurricanrana on Jordan! Majors stumbles into the corner surprised. Handbasket rushes to the corner and jumps on to Jordan and then flips her out of the corner with a monkey flip! Handbasket scrambles across the ring for a pin!

ONE…

Jordan kicks out and pushes Helena away as she scrambles back to her feet. Handbasket looks amused as she stands back up. Jordan approaches her slowly and dives at Helena’s legs. She eats a knee and stumbles to the ground. Handbasket drops double knees on Jordan’s back! The champ rolls away from Helena and grabs the bottom rope. Helena pulls her back away, but Jordan delivers a kick and gets to her feet. Helena grabs her quickly and hits an exploder suplex!

Handbasket relishes in her momentum by grabbing Jordan’s legs and turning over in a Boston crab! Jordan sits in position for a moment as Helena puts on the pressure. Majors looks for a quick way out as she pushes herself up on her forearms. Then her hands! Now she rolls them forward and jumps up and double stomps on Helena’s mid-section! Both fighters seem surprised by that counter as Jordan pulls Helena back to her feet and delivers a back suplex!

Jordan looks around as Handbasket holds her neck and moves to the nearby apron. She waits for Helena to start to get up. Slingshot clothesline! Superkick! Helena levels her right out of the air! Jordan collapsed to the mat in a heap and then held her face! Helena caught her flush with that. Helena looks to the corner and runs over. She climbs up to the top and looks for a big move! Jordan starts to stand as Handbasket dives off for a crossbody! Chapter 11! Jordan with the double knee facebreaker on the counter! She rolls Helena over and goes for the pin!

ONE…

TWO…

Helena kicks out! Jordan looks shocked after such a high impact move! She checks with the official for confirmation and shakes her head as she goes to pull Helena to her feet. Handbasket collapses to the mat. Jordan tries again and Helena falls like dead weight. Jordan grabs her and drags her to the corner and pulls her up and positions her against the turnbuckle. Helena falls through the rope and to the apron. Jordan looks confused now, but she climbs up to the top. She jumps off and puts a double stomp on Helena and they both tumble off the side of the apron.

Majors grabs at her knee from the outside and pulls herself up just to limp around the outside. The referee begins his count as she leans against the apron.

ONE…

TWO…

THREE…

FOUR…

Jordan pulls herself into the ring and stands up. Helena is right behind her and drills her with a chop block! Majors grasping at her leg and screaming. The official looks to check, but Helena pulls her up and shoves her into the corner. Helena sprints to the other corner and then turns around and runs back for Chaos Box! A high knee that drops Jordan! Majors tries to stand up. Blurred Line! A bronco buster!

Helena pulls Jordan out of the corner and to her feet. She goes on the run again! Helena goes for the Lone Digger! She swings around Jordan’s body and tries to lock in a Black Widow submission. Helena seems confused though! She’s grasping at Jordan and Majors swings her up on her shoulders! Her knee gives out! Jordan falls forward and Helena spills to the canvas! Majors grabs her knee and slaps at it!

Handbasket grabs her legs, kicks her, and then locks in a figure four leglock! Jordan grabs at her own hair and her eyes go wide! She tries her hardest not to lay flat on her back. She leans forward and punches at Helena’s legs, but Handbasket has this locked in! Jordan tries to rock them back and forth! She gets the leverage! They turn over and now she reverses the pressure. Jordan still in pain from her knee! But Helena has to grab the ropes! The official gets them untangled and Jordan pulls herself into the nearby corner.

Helena gets to her feet and runs for Jordan. Majors trips her in the corner! Handbasket goes face first into the turnbuckle! Jordan stands and hits a european uppercut and then whips Helena across the ring. Jordan goes for the superkick, but plants on the bad leg. She doesn’t get all of it as Handbasket tumbles back to the corner. Jordan from a few feet away sprints and does a half version of the donk bonk! She tosses Helena toward the middle of the ring and looks out at the crowd as it comes alive.

Jordan climbs to the top rope and positions herself. She comes off for the Money Drop! Helena rolls away! Jordan misses the Moonsault double stomp and lands on her feet. She stumbles backwards into the ropes and then down to a knee! Screw U! Helena lands the spinning knee and drops Majors! She goes for the pin to become Viral Champion!

ONE…

TWO…

THRE-

Majors kicks out at the last second! Helena leaps to her feet and celebrates her win. She jumps up and down as the official tries to explain that the match isn’t over. Jordan is up to her hands and knees and trying to get up to her feet. Handbasket can’t believe it as she scrambles. She runs to the ropes and rebounds off. She goes for a monkey flip! Jordan grabs her and tosses her into the air! Cash Out! Jordan digs down deep for the jumping cutter and plants Helena face first in the mat! She crawls over and pins her!

ONE…

TWO…

THREE!



Alex Lawson: The winner of this match...and STILL… Zion Wrestling Viral Champion… JORDAN! MAJORS!

Tripp Bennett: A closer match than some might have expected tonight. Helena almost caught Jordan a few times! What a performance from both.

Alivia Takasoto: She was smart to try to take advantage of the knee injury, but Jordan fought through the pain like a champion and delivered in this match. Can’t wait to see more from both of these competitors!

Jordan sits on her knees looking down over Helena. She smiles and shakes her head as she leans down and says something. She stands up and grabs her belt from the official and holds both hands up! She winces in pain and reaches down to grab her knee, then shrugs and grins to the crowd as she celebrates.

She gets to her feet, only to be clocked from behind by someone who slid into the ring! It’s...it’s…

Tripp Bennett: That’s Maki Megumi!

Alivia Takasoto: She’s the sister to Mayhem talent Nami Megumi! Though from the looks of things, she doesn’t seem quite as cordial with the champ as her sibling would!

Megumi stomps repeatedly on the midsection of Majors, before directing her attacks to her injured knee! She sits Majors up, smacking her hand with green tea powder and preparing to go for the Mandible Claw! But just then, “The Gun Show” by In This Moment hits, signalling the arrival of Killer Carter!

Tripp Bennett: Oh shit! Here we go!

Alivia Takasoto: Business just picked up, Tripp!

Carter bursts out onto the stage and begins to storm down the ramp, glaring at Megumi, when suddenly Cass Baumer rushes out and grabs the behemoth’s arm and spins her around, and the two women begin arguing with each other.

Tripp Bennett: What the hell is Baumer doing out here?!

Alivia Takasoto: Well, she has been pretty vocal about how much she disagrees with Carter’s role as the enforcer of Fusion.

As the two women continue arguing, KC then flips Baumer off before turning her attention back to the ring. However, the Kiwi spins the larger woman around again and punches her square in the jaw!

Tripp Bennett: Ooooh shit…

Alivia Takasoto: Something tells me Baumer is gonna regret that soon.

KC slowly turns her head to face Baumer, and she’s absolutely seething. Before the Kiwi has any time to react, Carter levels her with another right hand, and the two begin brawling with one another up the ramp.

Tripp Bennett: Can’t say I’m surprised that this is happening, Alivia!

Alivia Takasoto: Not at all, Tripp!

Baumer and Carter continue trading blows with each other as they reach the stage and then disappear to the back as we cut elsewhere.

WINNER: JORDAN MAJORS (VIA PINFALL)
CHAMPIONSHIP RETAINED



Razzles is found backstage. The Youtube Champion carefully, but quickly, weaving her hair into a long, fishtail braid that hangs down to the shoulder blade. Securing it with a clear elastic and a little hum following.

Razzles Mars: How exciting. Tonight is my first outing as the Youtube Champion. It feels like October 23rd was FOREVER ago! I missed Zion a lot! But, tonight... I'm back. The Youtube Championship gets its opportunity to be defended, proudly, for the first time in such a long time, and Winnipeg is in for the sweetest treat of all!

Throwing the completed braid over her shoulder, a few reflective sparkling bits woven into the braid glimmer and gleam. Grabbing hold of the Youtube Championship that was sitting on her pink bag, the camera pans out and gets a good glimpse at the champion's new ring gear: only too appropriate for the Iceplex. Razzles is wearing a powder blue singlet with some white, frosted lace as a cape/train, hanging from her shoulder. White boots are on her feet, and she is a candy-coated image of Disney's ice queen, Elsa.

Razzles Mars: A competitive match. Now, every time I've been in between those ropes under the Zion banner? I have brought it. It is not in me, not to put it all on the line whenever I step in between those ropes! You've watched me grind my way through the gauntlet and come this close to winnin' The Chance briefcase.

Her fingers pinch, only the most minute area of space between them.

Razzles Mars: You've watched me be tormented by the most callous, cruel person for weeks... and it didn't break me. It built me. And now? I've got this.

Razzles gives a loving hug to the Youtube Championship.

Razzles Mars: And the first challenger for my Youtube Championship in Ana Evans. Now, if you've been following me on social... ohmygosh, thank you, first of all. But, second, you'd know that I quite like Ana Evans. I see a lot of upside to her! It's almost refreshing, considering the just... visceral, sour, bitterness that my last outing in a Zion ring went. To have someone who I can say I respect and admire standing across from me, who's being given an opportunity to showcase herself on the highest level that this championship brings out in the people who challenge for it? That is exciting to me! I'm honored to be the champion, and to elevate this championship but tonight is historic. I've never wrestled in Canada. To get that first time, as the reigning, defending Youtube Champion? That's a fairytale that practically writes itself, innit?

She asked, giving a little flouncy to her Elsa-inspired cape.

Razzles Mars: I love the heart and spirit ya' got, Ana. But tonight is too important to me. I don't plan on going out as a footnote champion. I worked too hard to get here, I waited too long to earn this. Six hundred and fifty days, mate. If you want this from me? You're not gettin' it without a fight. I know you're keen to give one! So, let's go out there, tear the house down, and then we can celebrate with some Timbits.

She grinned, though it's unknown if Razzles is more excited about the big fight feel, or the classically Canadian doughnut holes. Hoisting her title up on her shoulder, the Brit allows the camera to pan out.



Match #2: Kasey Kash vs Emerald McAdams
Written by: K

Alex Lawson: The following contest...is scheduled for one fall!

Crowd: ONE FALL!

Alex Lawson: Introducing first...representing The Gemstones...from Glasgow, Scotland...weighing in at 130 lbs...Emerald! McAdams!

And her opponent...being accompanied to the ring by Jah Jah and Beau Haste...from Canberra, Australia...weighing in at 165 lbs...Kasey! Kash!

Tripp Bennett: Kasey Kash making his first in-ring appearance as Fusion competitor in nearly 3 months, and what an opponent to come back to!

Alivia Takasoto: Emerald McAdams no doubt looking to get a measure of vengeance on Kash for his attack at Hardwired! Though, I’m not sure if this is the brightest idea by the drummer of the Gemstones!



The crowd showers Kash in boos. as he cockily flips off the fans. He and Emerald meet in the middle of the ring. Kasey makes a bit of a spectacle as he put his hands behind his back, leaning over and egging in McAdams. She lays into him with a stiff forearm. Kasey’s about to to laugh it off but Emerald follows up with more strikes, the crowd rallying behind her now, louder at each blow that lands. She buries clinch kness strikes into Kasey, even downing him onto the mat. Cover from McAdams!

ONE!

Kasey casually lifts the shoulder up.

Emerald is quick to attack again with a double knee drop. Another cover!

ONE!
TWO!
Kasey kicks out again.

Emerald pulls Kasey up for a snap German, but Kasey lands on his feet. He strikes hard and fast with a Bicycle pump kick dropping his opponent to one knee, Kasey’s right back on the attack with a step up axe kick. Kasey gloats to the booing crowd. He’s done playing nice. He ducks as Emerald comes in with a clothesline and counters with a snap dragon suplex, dropping her right down on her head. Emerald has taken three rough blows to the head in quick succession. Oh no! An arm-trapped spike piledriver! That can not have made it any easier for Emerald. She’s crumpled on the mat.

Kasey refuses to even try to pin her, loving the hatred of the fans. He just shrugs and waits for Emerald to get to her feet. He shuffles his feet in and out of range, mocking McAdams as her attempted strikes completely miss. The crowd is booing relentlessly. Finally, he gets behind her and sets her up for Fuck You and All Your Friends!it hits flush! Kasey taunts the crowd, arms outstretched and middle fingers up. Emerald is essentially dead weight, slumped and held up only by Kasey standing right there. Kasey has a sadistic smile as he goes to bounce off the ropes. He could be Going The Di-

Oh god, Emerald fell right away face down. She fell unconscious!

The ref has to step in.



Alex Lawson: The winner of this match...as a result of a referee’s decision...Kasey! Kash!

Alivia Takasoto: Uhhh...is Emerald gonna be okay after that? He knocked her around pretty good!

Kasey Kash gets his hand raised in victory.

There is a stumned, concerned silence as medical staff rush the ring to tend to the Scottish Gemstone. Kasey is just about to head out of the ring as he sees that two members of the medical team take an arm each, trying to help Emerald up to her feet. Kasey hesitates, putting up one finger, mouthing “one more thing”. He put the finger to his lips. GOING THE DISTANCE.

There was no need for that. That was completely unnecessary. Kasey Kash is a despicable human being.

Kasey? He just…smiles.

WINNER: KASEY KASH (VIA STOPPAGE)



The scene opens backstage, more specifically, the steps leading down into the boiler room. Zach is sitting on them. He is wearing his trademark leather jacket and black trunks. He smirks as he begins to speak.

Zachary Porter: “If you told me I would be in a position to challenge for the World Heavyweight Championship, I’d tell you... nope, not going to happen.”

“Up until June of this year I didn’t have any designs of signing a contract with any wrestling company. I was just a man who decided getting involved with another man’s wife was a bright idea. I have no regrets about the situation in case you’re wondering. Not going to regret being the best friend I could be to Rayola. Xander returned. She ran back to him without a second thought, leaving me to pick up the pieces. So I can’t say I had long term plans of becoming a Heavyweight Champion of the World; my only goal was to piece my life back together.”

“With Ashlyn Cassidy in my life--

Zach smiles.

Zachary Porter: “-- I would say my life is in a good place. Ash is an inspiration. She is an ambitious woman who isn’t afraid to take on the stiffest of challenges. Week in and week out she builds on her legacy. She managed to become Zion Wrestling Champion being a good person, a role model for each and every single one of you. Not humility that allows me to say I am not a role model. You saw it. At Hardwired I unleashed a darker side of myself on Brooke Cartwright. Some would argue that was me showing desperation. I disagree. There is darkness inside me. I don’t consider that darkness an achilles heel. No, my darkness is my weapon. A weapon I will use to complete this unlikely journey.”

“Solomon Graham, this isn’t personal. You are in this position for a reason, I refuse to underestimate you. Fate isn’t on your side. The World Championship gives me a chance to expand on the message I have preached for since the day I stepped foot into eyes. It is time for the world to open their eyes to the truth. I am the messenger, no amount of shooting is going to kill my message.”

-- STATIC--

We cut backstage to find Killer Carter and Cass Baumer who are still fighting!

Tripp Bennett: These two are still going at it?!

Alivia Takasoto: This is insane!

Baumer delivers a knee to Carter’s gut before slamming her head off of a nearby table, and the behemoth is on wobbly legs as she staggers further down the corridor with Baumer hot on her heels.

Tripp Bennett: Someone needs to stop this!

Alivia Takasoto: Who do you think has the balls to step between these two, Tripp?!

Baumer grabs KC by the hair, but the larger woman suddenly clocks her with a headbutt, sending the Kiwi crashing to the ground.

Tripp Bennett: What a headbutt from Carter.

Alivia Takasoto: That’s gotta feel like a chair shot to the head!

Speaking of chair shots to the head, a dazed Baumer grabs a nearby steel chair and swings it at the behemoth and connects with her head as we cut elsewhere!

Match #2: RWK vs Katie Powell
YouTube Championship #1 Contenders Match
Writer: Jordan

Alex Lawson: The following contest...is scheduled for one fall...

And his opponent...from wherever her car takes her...weighing in at 145 lbs...Katie! Powell!

Tripp Bennett: Two weeks ago, Katie Powell took on a tough challenger in Killer Carter! She almost had her dead to rights, but RWK cost her!

Alivia Takasoto: What better way to get her revenge than to beat him and secure her spot as #1 Contender to the YouTube Belt, Tripp?



Katie wastes no time grabbing RWK and transitioning behind him. She tries to pick him up and he counters back to the ground. Robert reaches back and grabs Katie and tries to pull her over his shoulder, but she cinches in her hold around his waist. RWK pulls them to the ropes and grabs the top rope and Powell lets go. Robert turns around and Katie clotheslines him over the top rope! He grabs the ropes and falls to the apron.

Robert seethes in pain as Katie pulls him up again and then hits him with a sit out powerbomb! Katie holds it for the pin!

ONE…

TWO…

RWK kicks out and Katie just stares a hole into him. She pulls him back to his feet and Robert hits a quick elbow to the gut. She goes to grab him and takes another one that bends her over. RWK clubs her in the back to keep her there. Robert grabs her by the head from that position and hits a picture perfect DDT! Katie rolls over and starts to get up as RWK runs to the nearby middle rope and springboards off the second rope into a dropkick!

Katie tumbles across the ring and looks surprised as she tries to stand. RWK grabs her by the legs for a double leg takedown and then puts on the sharpshooter! Robert going for an early match submission. Powell reaches for the ropes and looks more annoyed than in any kind of pain. She pounds at the mat and then pulls them both to the ropes and grabs it to break the submission.

RWK releases the hold and Katie uses the ropes to stand up. Robert grabs her quickly with a Russian leg sweep to put her right back down! Katie looks pissed as she stands back up and RWK hits a snap suplex to put her down. He looks to the outside and slips between the ropes to the apron and waits for Powell to start to get back up. RWK comes in with the flying forearm! Powerslam! Katie grabs him out of the air and slams him in the middle of the ring! Powell for the pin!

ONE…

Robert drives his shoulder off the mat and Katie goes to her knees. She slaps at RWK before pulling him to his feet and putting him through a Michinoku driver! Powell slowly gets up and pulls RWK between her legs for another move. Untimely Departure! A Canadian destroyer! Robert rolls away after the move and back to his feet against the ropes! Katie looks shocked as he hits her with a superkick! She stumbles on her feet as he hits the enzuigiri! Powell falls down and then tries to get to her knees. RWK kicks her in the chest as soon as she reaches her knees. RWK off the ropes and hits the King’s Testament! A V Trigger devastates Katie! Robert goes for the pin!

ONE…

TWO...

Katie kicks out, but she still looks out of it. RWK thinks about a calf crusher, but then looks to the corner. The crowd cheers as he points at the corner and then goes up top. He looks out at the crowd for a moment and then leaps off the top rope, The LA Press! No! Powell gets her knees up! A shooting star press from RWK, but Katie had her knees up and Robert landed flush on his stomach! Katie just won’t give up! RWK in serious pain as he rolls away.

Both competitors stir slowly to their feet. Robert still presses to get something going as he stands and throws a punch. Katie steps toward him with a roaring elbow! Then a spinning front roundhouse kick! Robert falls to a knee and then stumbles back up for a spinning back elbow. RWK holds his jaw as he works back to his feet. Katie with a brutal lariat that flips RWK head over heels onto the mat!

Powell gets to her feet quickly and pulls RWK back up to a vertical base before flipping him over in a cradle tombstone piledriver position. She hits Sleep Paralysis and then motions wiping the dust off her hands as she hooks the leg for the pin.

ONE…

TWO…

THREE!



Alex Lawson: The winner of this match...and the #1 Contender of the Zion Wrestling YouTube! Championship...Katie! Powell!

Tripp Bennett: Katie Powell has done it! Katie Powell is going on to fight for the YouTube! Championship at War Games!

Alex Lawson: The following contest...is scheduled for one fall…

Crowd: ONE FALL!

Alex Lawson: And is for the Zion Wrestling YouTube! Championship!



A pulsing beat of light flickers the stage and the fans in hues of pink. It flashes, before the howling starting notes of "Strawberry Shake" by POP LEVI reverberate through the PA system.

AWOOOOOOOOOOOO!

The beat increases, as "Strawberry Shake" gets into its energetic beat. Razzles Mars excitedly rushes out past the velvet lined curtains, a lollipop's stick seen prodding from between her lips. She bounces on the stage, hands clapping in time with the beat, hyping up the crowd.

She calls out excitedly from outside of the ring, undoing the attachments of her entrance jacket and skirt. She collects a few high fives from the fans in attendance, before excitedly climbing the stairs. Taking a moment to pose for pictures before bending into the ring through the ropes, rebounding herself off the bottom rope to catapult herself into the center of the ring with a very flouncy twirl. Striking a pose with her arms voguing, her chin placed on her bridged fingers before "Strawberry Shake" began to fade in the distance.



She walks onto the stage. She walks to one side and puts her hand on her forehead, looking at the crowd. She does the same thing when she walks to the other side. She then puts her head down, then she points upwards with both of her hands, and moves her head upwards as well. She then proceeds to walk to the ring, giving some high fives to a few fans on the way. When she gets to the steel steps, she steps onto them, and looks at the crowd again. She then goes onto the ring apron and jumps over the ropes into the ring. She goes to the middle turnbuckle and points up to the sky again, then she points at a fan holding a sign supporting her. She then jumps down from the turnbuckle and walks around the ring, warming up.

The lights go down, with the usual spotlights shining over the champion and challenger.

Alex Lawson: Introducing the challenger...from Boston, Massachusetts...weighing in at 136 lbs…”Full of Heart”...Ana! Evans!

And her opponent...from The Candy Kingdom...weighing in at 13,607.771 sugar packets...she is the Zion Wrestling YouTube! Champion...RAZZLES! MARS!

The official takes the title from Majors after she raises it in the air, before showing it off to the crowd! He hands it off to the timekeeper as both competitors ready themselves in their corners!



Mars and Evans draw closer to one another as the crowd whips into a fever pitch, eager to see these two compete! They carefully measure their stances as their right hands lock together! They go for the left, with a bit of trepidation from both sides, and eventually both their hands are locked. They immediately get into a Test of Strength, the two struggling for control! Things seem even at first, but eventually Mars begins to get the upper hand, pushing Evans back! She tries to keep herself upright the best that she can, but Mars is prepared, taking her all the way down to the mat with Leg Sweep! Evans can’t be kept down, however, freeing her left hand from Mars before kipping right up and wrenching her arm! Mars initially yelps out in pain, but she’s able to come back from this, slipping under Evans arm before pinning the hand behind her! Evans tries reaching out for the ropes with her free arm, but she’s in the center of the ring! Eventually, Evans opts to reach behind her back, taking Mars to the mat with a Snapmare to escape!

Mars rolls back up to her feet, running straight for her challenger! She ducks underneath a Lariat attempt from Evans, hitting the ropes and going for a Satellite DDT! She’s caught by surprise however, as Evans pushes her away before she can drive her to the mat! Mars shakes off the rebuked attack, rushing back to Evans again! Evans is better equipped to counter this time, however, catching Mars on the side of the head with a Dropkick! She follows up immediately, hitting Mars with a Standing Shooting Star Press! Evans with the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

Kick out by Mars! Evans immediately shows off her agility, however, rolling forward off of Mars’ prone body, before getting to her feet and jumping up to nail her with Moonsault! But Mars gets the knees up, driving them into the midsection of Evans! She jumps up to her feet in recoil, prompting Mars to get up and capitalize with a Running Hurricanrana! She follows up immediately, jumping up and catching a prone Evans with a Double Foot Stomp! Evans sits up, clutching her stomach in agony! Mars takes advantage of this again, hitting the ropes and hitting Evans with a Running Dropkick! She goes for the pin now!

ONE…!

TWO…!

Kick out by Evans! She’s still in this! Evans, noticing her position near the ropes, slowly rolls out of the ring! Mars sees this, and decides to go high-risk! She hits the ropes, diving out of the ring as Evans gets to her feet with Suicide Dive! Evans counters however, drilling her with a Superkick out of mid-air! The champ crashes to the ground on the outside from the shot, giving Evans an opening to attack! She slides into the ring under the bottom rope and runs to the ropes, before catching Mars with a HANDSPRING MOONSAULT PLANCHA!! Mars is brought down to the ground once again! Evans gets the deadweight of Mars off the ground before throwing her back into the ring and going for the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

THR-

Kick out by Mars at two and a half! Evans is in shock, not able to believe that the seemingly concussion-inducing attack couldn’t keep the champion down! She gets herself back up before lifting Mars to her feet as well! She props her onto her shoulders, looking for Heartbroken! Evans drops her down, but when she goes for the Roundhouse Kick to cap it off, Mars ducks underneath! The missed shot turns Evans all the way around, leaving Mars an opening to push her to the ropes before going for the O’Connor Roll!

ONE…!

TWO…!

T-

Kick out by Evans! Mars runs the ropes, hoping to capitalize on her attack! But when she returns, Evans catches her with a European Uppercut! She capitalizes, looking to throw Mars into the ropes! But she escapes, jumping between the ropes and landing on the apron! Evans tries to charge at her, but she quickly gets caught off guard with shoulder block to the midsection, before Mars leaps over the ropes with the MARSIPAN KA-BLAM!! She rolls Evans to the center of the ring, before scrambling to go for the top rope and launching off to hit her with the PEPPERMINT TWIST!! Mars with the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

THREE!



Alex Lawson: The winner of this match...and STILL Zion Wrestling YouTube! Champion...RAZZLES! MARS!

Tripp Bennett: Razzles Mars retains over a huge challenge in Ana Evans! What a match put on by these two!

Alivia Takasoto: Evans put the champ’s reign in some serious jeopardy tonight, but Razzles Mars stands tall! But now she has the looming challenge of Katie Powell to worry about! Will she be able to stay champion after November 27th?

Mars celebrates with the crowd and her title as we fade out!

WINNER: RAZZLES MARS (VIA PINFALL)
CHAMPIONSHIP RETAINED



We cut backstage and Killer Carter and Cass Baumer are STILL going at it!

Tripp Bennett: Seriously?!

Alivia Takasoto: There is a LOT of bad blood between these two for sure!

Both women are breathing heavily and looking pretty battered and bruised, Baumer looking the worst out of the two. She’s got a prominent black eye with her lid almost swollen shut. Despite the pain, the Fusion Report hostess seems to be in control as she swings a baseball bat into the mid-section of the behemoth with all her might!

Tripp Bennett: What a home run!

Alivia Takasoto: Did you really just say that?

Clutching her stomach, Carter stumbles over to one of the doors that leads to the outside of the arena. Baumer approaches her, but KC snatches the bat before grabbing her by the head and slamming it into the door.

Tripp Bennett: And Baumer goes face first into the door!

Alivia Takasoto: And what’s worse than having to deal with Carter? Having to deal with Carter with a weapon!

The behemoth begins to walk away from Baumer who is slumped against the door.

Cass Baumer: You’re… still a frickin’ Kai simp...

Cass defiantly smirks as Carter stops in her tracks. The larger woman looks down at the bat in her hand before dropping it and then suddenly roars before turning around and charging towards the Kiwi and SPEARS her right through the glass door!

Tripp Bennett: Holy shit! Carter just speared Baumer through a freakin’ door!

Alivia Takasoto: It’s gotta be over now!

Carter slowly stands back up to her feet clutching her stomach and breathing heavily as she looks down at Baumer. She’s bloody from the shards with cuts all along her arms, but Cass is in a much worse state laying in the wreckage.

Killer Carter: Stay… out of my… fucking business, bitch!

KC then turns around and makes her way back into the arena as we cut elsewhere.



CLANG!

CLANG!

CLANG!

With the screen in black, the sound of lead pipes rhythmically banging together fills the soundtrack. Before long, and the pipes continues to collide, a familiar female voice speaks out…nearly in a signing tone…

Come Out And Plaaaaaay!!!!!

Come Out And Plaaaaaay!!!!!

It is then that the camera fades into the sight of the Zion World Tag Team Championship belt swinging side to side, with the voice continuing to sing out….

Come Out And Plaaaaaay!!!!!

Come Out And Plaaaaaay!!!!!

The camera pulls out to reveal that the woman behind the voice and the swinging of the championship belt is Ravyn Nightshade, who is sitting on a box in a dimly lit, undisclosed location. Also revealed is Olivia Nightshade, who is making the music with the lead pipes and has her belt held over her shoulder. With both women wearing black hoodies and camouflage cargo pants, they look at the camera with purpose.

Ravyn: There is a saying. “We are what we do. Chaos, therefore, is not an act, but a habit.” You damn right it’s a bloody good habit to have. And that’s the kind of habit that we crave because through that very thing, we get what we want.

The British femme fatale places her championship belt comfortably over her shoulder; her demeanor filled of confidence and intimidating directness as she continues to speak.

Ravyn: I’m not going to sit here and say, “We told you so.” But my sister and I cannot help but laugh at all of you for thinking that we just blowing hot air when it came to us saying that we were going to make an impact in Fusion. And as time went on since we first arrived here, we have made our case stronger. We know what we are worth. And we know we can crush any one to expand our worth. We do not expect you to understand it; much less force us to explain it further. But the eyes do not lie. And last week, your eyes didn’t deceive you. What you see here is all the evidence you need to know as to who the alphas on this brand are.

Ravyn takes a moment to look away to collect her thoughts, while tossing her hair to the side. Seconds later, her sister takes over as Ravyn while she refocuses her attention onto the camera.

Olivia: We put the entire Fusion tag team division on notice and planted ourselves as the focal point. And as tough as the competition was in that tournament, which we will acknowledge. What happened last week was nothing short of an exhausting, pain-driven war. But no matter how hard the teams we’ve faced tried to fight it, the inevitability of the reality was always there and, on that night, it got them all; the reality that, right now, is standing here exactly where they belong.

Olivia pats on the plate of her championship belt while still staring intently at the camera, driving her point across.

Olivia: ….and this is only the beginning. We busted our asses to get these and gave nothing but painful nightmares to everyone who stepped up to face us. Can you imagine what we are planning on doing to keep these? Because you DAMN SURE better believe that these titles are NEVER leaving our hands, MUCH LESS NEVER releasing our control of the tag team division. That’s right, bitches! The division is now on LOCKDOWN!

It is at this moment that Olivia grabs the camera and holds it close, allowing it to see the rage in their faces.

Rayvn: …and you’re looking at the wardens that’s fucking running it!

Olivia then drops the camera, which falls and leaves it focused on the girls looking down at it, although from a canted angle.

Ravyn & Olivia: Come play with us!

The sisters then give the camera a vicious stare before stomping their combat booted feet down on the camera causing it to go to static.



Match #5: Shadow Council vs Los Ding Dongs

Alex Lawson: The following tag team contest...is scheduled for one fall!

Crowd: ONE FALL!

Alex Lawson: Introducing first...at a combined weight of 368 lbs...Ding Dong Uno and Ding Dong Dos...Los Ding! Dongs!

And their opponents...at a combined weight of 325 lbs...Kade Morrison and Dragon...The Shadow Council!

Tripp Bennett: The Shadow Council are coming to the ring here with a bit more determination than usual after last week!

Alivia Takasoto: Why wouldn’t they? They came so close to becoming the World Tag Team Champions last week when they made it to finals of the Unity Tournament! They need to get right back on the grind if they wanna make it that close again!



Ding Dong Dos and Kade Morrison start off for their respective teams! Morrison offers Dos a handshake, to which Dos refuses to accept! Morrison responds with a simple shrug before pulling him in as he turns around and driving him to the mat with Dragon Suplex! He runs to the ropes, before bouncing off and hitting him with the Springboard Moonsault! He tags in Dragon, before the two go for a Double DDT! Dragon now looms over Ding Dong Dos before driving him to the mat with a Double Underhook DDT! She goes for the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

Kick out by Ding Dong Dos! Dragon lifts him to his feet, but he gets some distance with a shove, before running at Dragon, looking for a Hurricanrana! But Dragon reverses, pushing him off and getting him up for the POISON KISS!! She tags in Morrison, before they both hit SIREN SONG!! They both go for the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

THREE!



Alex Lawson: The winners of this match...The Shadow! Council!

Tripp Bennett: A dominant win by Dragon and Kade Morrison here tonight!

Alivia Takasoto: Sure hope Cass Baumer can keep her gig going with The Shadow Council taking Los Ding Dongs out of commission like that!

Morrison talks directly to the camera, stating The Council’s intention of going after the Tag Titles as we fade out.

WINNERS: SHADOW COUNCIL (VIA PINFALL)



Opening up backstage, we catch sight of Scott Dunn on his debut night with the company. The big man is already in his gear, with a questionably sized “Fusion” shirt over it. Meliana Rodrigo steps into view, microphone ready.

“Scott, firstly, welcome to Zion Wrestling. Wha-”

The poor girl can’t even finish her though before he grabs the mic and steps into the middle of the shot, with her left standing just behind him.

“Alright, fuckos?”

Can he say that? He doesn’t care.

“It’s your good pal Scotty Dunn, here and in living colour. Now I’ve been asked a few times by my many fans, they say…’Scotty, why did you sign for that Zion place?’ It’s a good question, it is.”

He runs his hand through his beard. His immaculately groomed beard.

“Was it the chance to work Fridays? Nah, I’ll fight on any day. The money? Titles? Glory? Fame? ...good one. So why? Why, eh?”

The man paces a little and Meliana ends up not even in view anymore.

“It’s easy, I signed up because there are a bunch of idiots back there in that locker room that need their asses kicking. There ain’t nothing fancy about it, there ain’t nothing complex going on, it’s really that simple. And that’s exactly why I’m here right now, fists taped, knee pads on, ready to take on whichever dumbass the management have decided to feed me for my debut. I don’t even know who I’m facing and I ain’t out there complaining.”

He shrugs.

“Well, actually, you’ll be-”

He cuts her off again.

“See, no matter who it is, it won’t matter because the end result will be the same. I’ll go out there, kick their heads so hard they crap out their teeth, then take my chiseled self home with satisfaction in my heart. So whoever it is, I hope you’re ready.”

Meliana can’t get a word in again, before he’s gone. She sighs.

“I was trying to tell him who he’s facing. It’s-”

The feed cuts and we transition to the next match.





Alex Lawson: The following is a Hardcore Match...scheduled for one fall!

Crowd: ONE FALL!

Alex Lawson: First...introducing the special guest referee for this match...Academy Award winning actor...Nicolas! Cage!

Alivia Takasoto: The fuck is Nic Cage doing refereeing this match?!

Tripp Bennett: Your guess is as good as mine, Alivia Takasoto!

Alex Lawson: Introducing first...from Madison, Wisconsin...weighing in at 141 lbs...Ozzy! Stoll!

And his opponent...from Fukuoka, Japan...weighing in at 123 lbs...The Mad Toymaker...Akako! “Dandelion”! Ogawa!

Tripp Bennett: Well after their match on the Hardwired pre-show fell apart, the powers that be decided to take the rules away so that Ozzy Stoll and Akako Ogawa can definitively settle their differences!

Alivia Takasoto: This is the blue brand's first ever Hardcore Match, and given the combatants in it, this is should be a hell of a fight!



Ogawa and Stoll launch themselves towards one another at the sound of the bell, wasting no time in getting things started! Ogawa ducks under a Lariat attempt from Stoll, clocking him with an Uppercut when he turns around! He falls to the mat, leaving Ogawa with an opening to roll out of the ring and introduce the first weapons of this match! She reaches under the ring, throwing whatever she grabs into the ring with glee! She throws in a table, a couple of full burlap sacks and a glass pane, albeit very carefully! She jumps back into the ring, only to be immediately met with a recovered Stoll, who begins stomping on her back! He gets her up to her feet, only for her to attempt a swing at him! He ducks underneath, however, getting her in position before laying her out with a German Suplex right next to one of the burlap sacks!

Stoll rolls out of the ring now, grabbing a few things from the other side of the ring! He throws in a couple of familiar looking gift boxes into the ring, as well as a third burlap sack and a baseball bat! He rolls back into the ring, seemingly satisfied with the variety of weapons now scattered across the mat! He walks up to a prone Ogawa, looking to lift her to her feet, but she was playing possum! She pops up into Stoll’s face, smacking him right across the temple with the buldgiest of the burlap sacks! She opens up the bag and looks inside, cracking a smile at what she sees! She pours the contents of the sack onto the mat, revealing it to be a mountain of thumbtacks! She lifts Stoll to his feet, but he shoves her away, knowing exactly what’s coming next! He comes back at Ogawa with a Big Boot, but she catches it, before slamming Stoll onto the tacks with a Leg Whip!

Stoll writhes around in pain as his back is revealed to resemble a huge, fleshy pin cushion! The fans, commentary team, and Nic Cage look on in horror! Ogawa goes for the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

Kick out by Stoll, much to the surprise of Ogawa! She gets Stoll to his feet, getting him in position for a Belly-To-Back Suplex! But Stoll drives her away with a few elbows to the side of the head! She staggers back before Stoll grabs her back in and drives her into the tacks with a Snap Suplex! He looks to be going for the pin, but thinks better of it, instead going for one of the gift boxes on the other side of the mat! He opens up the box, unveiling the contents to be the Pumpkin Spice Tamale he brought for Ogawa as a gift the other week! The “treat” is two weeks old and has been left unrefrigerated since the Hardwired pre-show, so the tupperware container it resides in is riddled with mold! He cracks open the container as Ogawa gets to her feet, the smell overwhelming the fans in the row and even himself. She gets to her feet and Stoll goes to throw the disgusting mess at her! But she ducks it, leaving the slop to be thrown in the face on Nic Cage!

The two look on in horror as the actor stands still in disgust at the terrible, rotten food he’s now covered in! Stoll apologizes profusely to the man with Ogawa uses the opening to roll him up! Nic Cage, surprisingly not quitting on the spot, counts the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

Kick out by Stoll! He rolls back to his knees, prompting Ogawa to attempt to capitalize! But Stoll catches her with a Forearm shot to the midsection! He takes a hold of Ogawa’s head, before running her into the corner and bringing her to the mat with a Tornado DDT! Stoll looks around the ring for another weapon to use, his eyes landing on another one of the burlap sacks! He opens it up and looks inside, nearly exploding with excitement! He reaches in before pulling out a handful of Skewers and raising them in the air for a huge pop! He stands over Ogawa, raising her head up before driving a skewer into her head! She reels in pain as he sticks in another, then ANOTHER!! He stops the torment, getting Owaga to her feet, before getting her in position for a Piledriver! But Ogawa reverses with a Back Body Drop before collapsing to the mat!

Suddenly, her eyes are drawn to the second gift box, grabs her attention. Given what was inside the other one, Owaga knows exactly what she expects to pull out of this one! She opens it up to find her Barbed Wire Stuffed Bunny! She clings to the toy that she’s been reunited with before proceeding to swing at a prone Stoll with it! She lashes on him repeatedly, before standing over him, lifting his head, and grating his forehead with the razor sharp barbs on the bunny! Both combatants are now drenched with blood Ogawa drops the bunny onto Stoll! She now gets hold of the table, setting it up in the middle of the ring! She sees Stoll starting to stir, reaching for the final burlap sack! But she cuts him off though, lifting him up and bringing him right back to the ground with a RUNNING CROSSBODY! Ogawa with the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

THRE-

Kick out by Stoll! Ogawa remains in shock, not sure what else can put him away! She runs the ropes, looking for the Concrete Breaker, but she’s stopped in her tracks by a shot with the Baseball Bat by Stoll! He gets to his feet, grabbing the final burlap sack and dumping out it’s contents to reveal that it’s more barbed wire! He grabs it, wraps it around the Bat and goes to town on Ogawa with it! He unloads shot after shot to the back of Ogawa! He eventually yields, getting her up and taking her to the mat with a PILEDRIVER!! Stoll with the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

THRE-

Kick out by Ogawa, but Stoll is not deterred! He gets Ogawa to her feet and props her up onto the table, before climbing to the top rope! He launches off going for the Otter Pop, but Ogawa dodges it, leaving him to crash through the table!! Both competitors are down, as the crowd breaks out into “Holy shit!” chants, with Nic Cage even joining in on the fun! Ogawa is eventually the first to get up, getting her hands on the glass pane, the only weapon not used so far! She sets it up in the corner, before grabbing Stoll to his feet, lifting him up and rushing him towards the pane of glass! But he reverses, getting both feet onto the glass before jumping off with another Tornado DDT to Ogawa! He gets her up, dragging her into the corner before hitting the KILLING JOKE INTO THE GLASS! The pane shatters with both competitors laying the mess of shards! Eventually, Stoll gets a hand up and places it over the chest of Ogawa!

ONE…!

TWO…!

THREE!



Alex Lawson: The winner of this match...Ozzy! Stoll!

Tripp Bennett: Ozzy Stoll gets the win here in this brutal match!

Alivia Takasoto: Brutal match, Tripp? We just saw a blood waged war take place here! I just hope these two are alright!

Nic Cage pokes Stoll with his foot, checking to see if he’s even still alive! The Wisconsin native awakens, slowly getting to his feet as the actor lifts his hand in victory!

WINNER: OZZY STOLL (VIA PINFALL)

[Intern]

Alex Lawson: The following contest...is scheduled for one fall...

Crowd: ONE FALL!

Alex Lawson: And is a #1 Contender’s match for the Zion Wrestling World Heavyweight Championship!

Introducing first...from Scarborough, Ontario, Canada...weighing in at 223 lbs…He is “The Wired King”...Solomon! Graham!

And his opponent...from Laredo, Texas...weighing in at 190 lbs...Zachary! Porter!

Tripp Bennett: We're in for a treat with two giants of the blue brand squaring off to see who will be the #1 Contender for the World Heavyweight Championship!

Alivia Takasoto: What a match this is gonna be Tripp! These two have been putting on Match of the Year contenders ever since they’ve come to Zion Wrestling! This match right here should be a good addition to their already huge list of bangers!



Porter and Graham are off to the races, as the two start to slowly approach each other. They draw closer, looking as though they’re about to lock up! Just then, however, Graham offers a hand to Porter, which he hesitantly accepts! The two immediately pull away, focusing on the match at hand! They slowly approach each other once more. Before simultaneously jolting to life, lunging at each other in unison! Graham, the more well-versed grappler of the two, shows off his technical prowess, going low and wrapping up Porter with a Waistlock! Porter struggles to escape Graham's grasp, but is eventually able to pry his arms apart! He quickly turns the tables, getting Graham into a Waistlock of his own, before going for a German Suplex! He bridges for a pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

Kick out by Graham! The two get to their feet in unison with Porter being the first to strike, going for a Slingblade! But Graham reverses, pushing Porter off of him and sending him towards the ropes! He bounces off, returning to Graham only to be met with a Big Boot! He capitalizes, running the ropes to go for a Knee Drop! But Porter moves out of the way, leaving Graham to fall to take the full impact to his left knee as he hits the mat! Graham gets to his feet, favoring the left knee! Porter takes advantage, running up and hitting a Chop Block straight to the left leg of Graham, sending him to his knees on the mat, before approaching him once more and going for a Knife Edge Chop! The shot sends Graham standing up in recoil, and Porter goes a second Knife Edge Chop! He’s taken aback, however, when Graham returns the favor with a Knife Edge Chop of his own! Porter takes his turn, hitting Graham with another Chop! Then Graham! Then Porter! Eventually the two contenders are in battle of Chops, the skin on their chest glowing as they inblazen each other in red! Eventually, Graham gets the better of Porter, feigning another Chop, before catching him off guard with a Knee Strike to his head! Porter staggers now, as Graham now goes for Knee Strike after Knee Strike to the head! He relieves the bevy of strikes, opting to run the ropes and drive Porter to the mat with a Knee Trembler! Porter’s down, and Graham goes for the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

Kick out by Porter! Graham is ready to attack again, however, getting Porter to his feet in position for a Regal Cutter! But Porter reverses, being able to turn forward once again and pushing Graham towards the ropes! He bounces off, with Porter quickly following and doing the same! Not seeing Porter, Graham stops in his tracks in the center of the ring to find him, only to turn around into a Slingblade! Graham slowly reaches his feet once again, and Porter’s already there to greet him! He gets Graham in position before hitting a Suplex! He’s not through however, rolling through and getting Graham up to his feet again, before hitting a Backbreaker! Porter with the pin now!


ONE…!

TWO…!

T-

Kick out by Graham! Porter is really to finish this, however, eager to get his shot at the gold! He gets Graham to his feet, before dragging him into the corner! He walks across the ring to get into position before running at Graham in the other corner to hit the Cowboy Up! But Graham dodges it, leaving Porter’s foot hanging on the top rope! He takes advantage of the positioning, nailing Porter with a Knee to the hanging leg! He brings his foot the mat, now reeling at the damage done, before Graham runs to him and delivers a Regal Cutter! Now seeing Porter on the mat, Graham realizes his opening! He snatches the damaged leg of Porter, getting him into a Single Leg Boston Crab! Porter is in trouble now as he tries reaching for the ropes! The referee asks if he’s ready to submit, but Porter answers no! He crawls towards the ropes, making it mere fingertips away, but Graham drags him back to the center of the ring to continue the hold! This would prove to be a mistake however, as Porter is able to slip the grip of Graham and escape in the process, kicking him off with his free leg!

Porter goes straight for Graham after getting up, but he gets hit with an Elbow by his opponent! Then another, then ANOTHER!! Graham goes for the Court of Miracles on Porter as the crowd counts along! The count finally reaches nine as Graham spins around with great gusto and delivers the TENTH ELBOW TO PORTER!! Graham goes for the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

THR-

Kick out by Porter! Graham seems undeterred however, getting Porter to his feet and position for Shattered Neck Brilliance! But Porter reverses, dropping down between Graham’s legs, crawling up behind him, and popping up to bring his shoulders to the mat with a Backslide Pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

THRE-

Kick out by Graham! He gets back to his feet, sending a Knee right into a kneeling Porter’s head! This has the opposite of the desired effect however, with Porter popping back to his feet, a glimmer of anger in his eye! Graham runs towards him to keep his advantage, but Porter reverses with a Knee to the midsection before driving his head into the mat with PORTER’S HOUSE!! Porter isn’t done however, limping his way towards the corner on his hurt leg, before slowly hopping to the top rope turnbuckle by turnbuckle! He looms over Graham, looking for Paradise Lost! But Graham notices this and shakes off the cobwebs, popping up and rushing towards the ropes to trip up Porter almost out of instinct! Graham climbs to middle rope to meet his opponent, before using the last of his energy reserves to bring Porter to the mat with a SUPERPLEX!! The two land awkwardly, with each of their arms covering each other’s chest! But with both of their shoulder’s down, the referee makes the count anyway!

ONE…!

TWO…!

THREE!



Alivia Takasoto: Wha-wait a minute? What the hell?

Tripp Bennett: It seems as though Zachary Porter and Solomon Graham have pin each other at the same time! This is unprecedented!

Alivia Takasoto: Yeah, but it also leaves the question of who the hell just won this match!

Graham and Porter slowly approach their feet, both harboring a load of questions for the official! The two are absolutely perplexed as to the finish of the match and who gets the title shot, but the ref offers very little as far as answers. Graham gives up the ghost, storming off to the back to get his answers as Porter stands in the ring alone.

Suddenly, “Yoo-Hoo” by Imperial Teen blares into the arena, taking away Porter’s attention and drawing it towards the stage, showing no ounce of surprise as to who’s coming out, as is the crowd as they begin to soundly boo. His instincts are correct as Brooke Cartwright comes out and stands upon the stage, wearing a beige luxe wrap designer jumpsuit and knee-high merlot colored leather boots, her hands firmly on her hips, and looking furiously at Porter.

Tripp Bennett: Things have definitely picked up here. We haven’t seen Brooke since Hardwired in her match with Porter. And from the looks of things, I don’t think she hasn’t gotten over how it turned out.

Alivia Takasoto: Zachary defeated her convincingly, Tripp! And though it’s in the record books, it’s unclear as to what she’s doing here now.

Porter sees Brooke and gives her a smile, which frustrates her further. Brooke makes her way down the ramp to the ring, but stops halfway there, still keeping her eyes focused on Porter, who is now inviting her to come in the ring, ready for confrontation.
Suddenly, two assailants, wearing all black, attack Porter from behind, beating him down to the mat with forearms and stomps. Just then, Brooke’s anger quickly becomes a look of devilish satisfaction as she continues her walk down the ramp and enters the ring.

Meanwhile in the ring, Brooke directs traffic of the attack as the assailants have their way with Porter. Brooke then screams at the assailants to pick him up, which they do. After Brooke fires herself up, the assailants whip Porter towards Brooke, who then nails him with a picture perfect, and incredibly brutal, brogue kick to the face!

The assailants praise Brooke for the strike and then stand on each side of her, with all of them boldly putting their foot on Porter’s chest in a humiliating victory pose while the crowd continues to let them have it. Brooke says a few words to the assailants and almost quickly, they unmask themselves to be….

Delilah Hill & Valentina Skye!!!!

Alivia Takasoto: Holy shit! What the fuck?!

Tripp Bennett: That’s Delilah Hill...and Mayhem’s Valentina Skye! What the hell are they both doing here?

Meanwhile the ladies are still in the ring, with Porter still under their feet. They are celebrating their handiwork while Brooke is taking selfies of the occasion. However, it was short lived as “The Gun Show” by In This Moment, blares into the area, causing the crowd to cheer loudly.

They see Killer Carter storm into the ring and they immediately exit. Just as Porter was coming to, Carter is staring a hole into the three women on the ramp, who is talking trash to Carter as they leave the area.

Tripp Bennett: Well ladies and gentlemen...we were awaiting this match to determine who the #1 Contender for the title would be, but it seems we’ve been left with more questions than answers at this point!

NO CONTEST (DOUBLE PINFALL)

Match #8: Scott Dunn vs Benito Wallace
Written by Scarlet

Alex Lawson: The following contest...is scheduled for one fall!

Crowd: ONE FALL!

Alex Lawson: Introducing first...from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada...weighing in at 178 lbs...Benito! Wallace!

And his opponent...from Manchester, England...weighing in at 255 lbs…”Savage”! Scott! Dunn!



Scott Dunn and Benito Wallace meet in the ring, as Benito opened with a chop to Dunn's chest, which he winced, but Wallace would shake his hand as Dunn was all muscle. Scott returned the favor and chopped him hard enough to knock Wallace to the mat. Dunn would then begin to repeatedly stomp on Benito, before picking him up off his feet for a military press that wowed the crowd.

Alivia Takasoto: "Fuck! This guy's a monster!"

She said, as Scott Dunn walked Benito over to the turnbuckle and dropped him belly first onto the corner, almost as if he was doing a Mortal Kombat fatality. The crowd groaned from the vicious move, as Dunn would taunt to the crowd, posing, as Benito hangs on. Wallace would get to the top turnbuckle, as he takes off his gawdy band shirt, and shouts "woop woop!" Dunn turns around, as Wallace attempted a diving seated senton on him, but, Scott caught him in mid-air, and drives him down into a powerbomb lungblower, before going for the one finger pin on the motionless Benito.

1..
2..
3..



Alex Lawson: The winner of this match...Scott! Dunn!

Tripp Bennett: "Bloody hell, I guess you can call this match done and dusted."

Dunn stands over Wallace as we fade out!

WINNER: SCOTT DUNN (VIA PINFALL)



Backstage, we see Daria Dorsey sporting a New York Rangers jersey, knowing it would draw the ire of the Canadian crowd, as she spoke about the absence of Salem Cartier from the card.

Daria Dorsey: "Oh? Were you expecting someone else? A certain witch that was green with envy? Your girl thought she could walk into my locker room, into my ring with all the fanfare, hotdogging and grand-standing like she was still as big of a deal now as she was three years ago... nuh-uh! Not on my watch!"

She said, as Daria was being booed from the crowd as she smirked a bit from the response.

Daria Dorsey: "Nah, Salem learned quickly that she's not going to last going against the Zenith of Zion Wrestling. Salem managed to snatch a victory against me, but like Canada and their pursuit for the Stanley Cup, it will be about thirty years before it happens again!"

Daria said, as she was booed heavily by the Canadian crowd, soaking in some of that cheap heat.

Daria Dorsey: "Likewise, when I plucked that witch out of the skies and brought her back down to Earth, and back to reality... I'm going to give people on Fusion a bit of a reality check as well. Because unlike that gawdy debazzled carry-on, my baggage is a one-way trip to the top, where I will prove that I am the top athlete in this company, and your future champion."

Daria said, raising her chance briefcase and smirking wickedly for the camera, as we fade to black.



Match #9: THORA vs Lily Lopez
Written by K

Alex Lawson: The following contest...is scheduled for one fall!

Crowd: ONE FALL!

Alex Lawson: Introducing first...being accompanied to the ring by Jessica Anderson...from Seattle, Washington...weighing in at 110 lbs...Lily! Lopez!

“Light Up The Sky” begins to play, with the fans coming unglued! The reception of this competitor far outweighs that of anyone competing on the night!

And her opponent...from Fairbanks, Alaska...weighing in at 137 lbs…”The Mighty”! THORA!

Tripp Bennett: THORA is set to make her debut in a Zion ring here tonight, but it seems as though the Winnipeg fans have already made their mind up as to how much they enjoy her!

Alivia Takasoto: THORA is probably one of the biggest acquisitions that Zion Wrestling has had yet! It would be a tall task to get a reaction from her that isn’t this!



We catch a glimpse of fans in the front row bowing, both hands in the air. We cut bacj to the ring, THORA beams with pride.

“WE’RE NOT WOR-THY!
WE’RE NOT WOR-THY!

MIGH-TY THO-RA!
MIGH-TY THO-RA!”

It was safe to say the fans were ecstatic at the arrival of The Queen of Thunder. Lily Lopez tries to initiate a lockup. The more experienced veteran easily transitioned to a wristlock, twisting back Lily’s arm and bending her wrist back. Lily winces, walking around to get to the ropes to force a break. Once she gets there though, THORA backs her into the ropes into an Irish whip, Lily rebounds into a spinning side slam. THORA with a casual cover.

ONE!
Shoulder up from Lopez!

THORA gets up and creates space between the two. She has a cocky smile on her face, just daring Lily to charge. Lily does, but THORA evades the attack. When Lily comes back around she gets dropped by a rolling elbow. She pops up and gets hit with another. She’s up again and this time THORA connects with a sling blade! The Wings of Asgard goes to the top turnbuckle, waiting for Lily to get to her feet. Jessica Anderson gets up on the apron to disrupt the momentum of The Lightning Thief, lily rolled away, out of range. THORA drops off the top abd lands on her feet, straight into Echoes of Thunder!

The crowd is as loud as ever in pure adoration, and THORA soaks it in. Jessica Anderson is at ringside and snatches a “< 3 THORA< 3” fanmade sign. She has a marker in her boot. She makes sure THORA can see as she writes over the T with a W!

This infuriates THORA who slides out of the ring to get into a screaming match with Anderson. She’s just about to slap Anderson when Lopez launches herself in a suicide dive, knocking THORA to the floor. Lopez rolls THORA back into the ring. Jessica is pressing her protege to capitalize, Lopez glances at her mentor to say she understood. Lopez leaps into a crossbo-SIGARD STRIKE! THORA with a vicious forearm catching Liky in midair! Lopez looks to be out. Just to make sure, THORA pulled her opponent to her feet, pumphandle… SHOCK THERAPY!

ONE!
TWO!
THREE!



Alex Lawson: The winner of this match…”The Mighty”! THORA!

["Light Up The Sky" continues to blare over the loudspeakers as the camera shows a breathless THORA leaning against the ropes with a smile gracing her face over her debut win on Fusion. Slowly, THORA pushes herself off the ropes and moves towards the other side of the ring, asking for a mic; which she is handed. She lets out one last breath before putting the Mic to her lips as her theme dies down.]

THORA: Ya knoweth... All father at each moment hath said your first matcheth in a company either puts thee on the path of success or on the path for failure and I believeth this one just putteth me on a valorous path but even but right now this isn't mine own priority at the moment.

[THORA looks out at the FUSION crowd chanting 'Zion' and 'Mighty'. Another smile appears on her face.]

THORA: Nay. Mine own priority right now is a person who I believeth I did rub the wrong way and that is Mai Blackman.

[The some of the crowd begin to boo at the mention of Mai.]

THORA: After lasteth week, meeting in the hallway, I did wanted to do mine own researcheth on mine own welcoming party. And knave, what I hath found out about you was something else. Seeth, you have been having some problems in this ringeth. You square and square and after each bout, thee continueth to faileth. Many feuds you has't hadst, You cameth up short. Hel, you even failed on capturing the viral championship 'gainst Lass Haliday. After finding all this out, this madeth me bethink, wherefore wouldst you receiveth in mine own visage; a mistress you have not met yet and act liketh I am nothing?

[THORA leads back on the ropes]

THORA: Is't because you knoweth deep down that anon someone of mine own wrestling status has graced the fusion brand, you'll be pushed backeth to the endeth of the line. Tell me, Are you so insecure of thy owneth arts to tryeth to cometh across a bigger threat that you truly are??

[THORA shakes her head in annoyance]

THORA: Mai. I desire thee were watching mine own debut and continueth to gaze mine own matches on FUSION because this is how a real mistress fights. And trusteth me at which hour I sayeth I shall not stand ho until I'm on top of this brand. Calleth me prideful. Calleth me a wench. Calleth me everything in the booketh. Liketh it 'r not, I am here to stayeth, Mai; and there isn't anything in thy arsenal that can changeth this....The Mighty is here to stayeth.

[With that, "Light up The Sky" begins to play out the loudspeakers as she places the mic down on the mat before sliding out of the ring and heading up the ramp towards the backstage area]



Alex Lawson: The following contest...is scheduled for one fall...

Crowd: ONE FALL!

Alex Lawson: And is for The Zion Wrestling World Heavyweight Championship!



The lights are set to a green hue while "Coming Thru The Stereo" plays throughout the arena. Right after the guitar kicks in, the crowd cheers, with The Fallen Prophet Serena Riot making her way down. She raises her hands and does a quick spin.

Alex Lawson: Introducing first...from Cleveland, Ohio...weighing in at 150 lbs...she is the Zion Wrestling World Heavyweight Champion...Serena! Riot!

Tripp Bennett: Serena Riot set to make her first defense here against a mystery opponent!

Alivia Takasoto: I’m so excited, Tripp! I wonder who it could be!

After staring at the crowd for a moment, she makes a slow crawl to the ring. Once inside, She jumps up on the bottom right turnbuckle, with pyro going off on the other 3 corners.

Alex Lawson: And her opponent...



Tripp Bennett: WOW!

Alivia Takasoto: Things just picked up here!

The lights dim and smoke starts to fill up the entry way as "Underneath" kicks in. Quinn steps out from the back, spinning around and flexing one arm with her head turned over her shoulder with a smile.

Alex Lawson:...from Austin, Texas...weighing in at 150 lbs...Quinn! Costa!

Tripp Bennett: One month ago, Quinn Costa was taken out of in ring action following an injury picked up during her match with TAURUS! And now she’s back and better than ever!

Alivia Takasoto: I don’t think anyone would’ve thought that we’d see Quinn Costa back in a Zion ring anytime soon, let alone in a match for The World Heavyweight Championship!

Quinn spins around, heading down the ramp before walking to the side of the ring, jumping up on the apron and stepping between the ropes. Quinn steps to the middle of the ring, flexing both arms with a wink at the camera before heading to her corner.



Riot and Costa both approach each other from either side of the ring, a bit of trepidation showing from both of them for varying reasons! Eventually, the two attempt to grapple, but Riot is quickly caught off guard as Costa goes and slips behind her with a Waistlock! She runs Riot into the corner of the ring, going for the Quinnplex! But Riot flips out of the final, fatal German Suplex, before sending a Kick to the side of Costa’s head! Costa staggers to her feet, before Riot sends a boot to her gut and runs the ropes! She jumps up, looking to hit her challenger with Wicked Ways, but Costa gets the head up just in time, sending Riot flying in the air before she eventually catches her and drives her to the mat with a Saito Suplex! Costa with the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

Kick out by Riot! The champion looks up in shock-horror, unable to fathom just how close she came to her title reign coming to an end! From that point, she knows not to underestimate her opposition! She gets to her feet with Costa, before attempting to get technical by looking for a collar-and-elbow tie up to try and wear the powerful Costa down! She fails at this however, with Costa immediately being able to shove her away and into the corner! Seeing Riot in the corner, Costa spots an opportunity! She guns for the champion, going for a Hip Attack in the corner! But Riot has it well scouted, using the ropes to pop herself up and above Costa, before coming back down to contort herself around the challenger’s frame, bringing her to the mat with a Victory Roll!

ONE…!

TWO…!

Kick out by Costa! Riot attempts to stay on her, however, stomping on the formerly injured midsection of her opponent before locking in the Boston Crab! Costa is in trouble now, being in the center of the ring with nowhere to go! She reaches for the ropes, but Riot has the hold locked in tight, giving her zero room to move! Costa eventually resolves to power out of the move, using her immense strength to push Riot off of her legs! It eventually works with Riot being planted onto the mat face-first! Costa immediately goes on the prowl, getting a Waistlock on Riot, who is now on her hands and knees, and lifting her up for a German Suplex! She’s not done however, rolling through it and hitting Riot with a second German Suplex, this time into the corner! Riot is nearly defenseless as Costa swoops in and catches her with a Back Elbow, before rolling out of the corner and coming back at Riot with a Hip Attack! She staggers out of the corner now as Costa takes advantage again, lifting her up and dropping her with a Sidewalk Slam! Costa covers!

ONE…!

TWO…!

Kick out by Riot! Costa is shocked at the result that combination achieved for her, but she remains focused on her goal, getting to her feet before dragging Riot to hers as well! She lifts Riot up in a Powerbomb position, before running towards the corner, looking for her signature Buckle Bomb! But Riot slips her grip, making it over her head and onto her back before turning her own momentum against her with a Sunset Flip Pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

TH-

Kick out by Costa! She rolls to her feet, before attempting to send a boot into the head of a seated Riot! But she lies back to duck underneath, catching the right foot of Costa and bringing her to the mat for ANOTHER Boston Crab! This time she has the move cinched in even tighter, getting a solid torque on the back of a now anguished Costa! She’s just fingertips away from the ropes, yet the very little distance she has feels like a mile! She raises her hand, seemingly about to tap, but instead she takes one last chance, making a huge reach, inching a bit more forward, and grabbing hold of the bottom! The referee informs Riot that she has to let go of the hold, an instruction that she follows, albeit reluctantly! She gets Costa to her feet once again, getting in Knee Strike after Knee Strike to the head of her opponent! She eventually relieves the barrage of knees, opting instead to jump up and go for a Dropkick! But Costa swats away the oncoming Fallen Prophet like a fly almost, before bringing her down with a Running Lariat as she gets up! Riot gets up once again, flying at Costa! But she catches the champion, bringing her to the mat with a Belly-To-Belly Suplex! She waits as Riot slowly makes it to her feet, before hitting a BRIDGING NORTHERN LIGHTS SUPLEX!! She has the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

THR-

Kick out by Riot! Costa looks up to the referee, halfway in desperation, hoping the nearfall was actually the three count she wanted! She directs her attention back to Riot, lifting her to her feet and once again, going for the Quinnplex! But Riot hooks her arms into the corner, keeping herself upright enough to push Costa away! The challenger rolls herself back up to her feet, before charging straight for the champion! Riot quickly puts whatever Costa was going for to a stop with a kick to the gut, before dragging her into the center of the ring and hitting her HEADSTRONG!! THE PILEDRIVER CONNECTS!! She goes for the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

THR-

Kick out by Costa! Riot is shocked now! She hardly hesitates however, climbing to the top rope, before launching off with The Demon Drop! But Costa rolls out of the way, leaving Riot to crash to the mat! Riot lands on her feet however, keeping herself stable and preventing herself from crashing! She hardly has time to recover before Costa goes for the Costalock! She almost has the devastating hold on tight, but Riot slips her grip once more, going to the mat and crawling back between Costa’s legs, before tripping her forward! She runs the ropes as Costa attempts to get up, catching her with WICKED WAYS!! THE CURBSTOMP CONNECTS!! Riot with the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

THREE!



Alex Lawson: The winner of this match...and STILL Zion Wrestling World Heavyweight Champion...SERENA! RIOT!

Tripp Bennett: What a match and what a defense by the new champion!

Alivia Takasoto: This is one hell of a way to not just start off the Reign of Riot, but this new era of Fusion as a whole! Quinn Costa may not have gotten the win tonight! But that performance will surely cement her as top tier talent for a long time to come!

Riot celebrates with the title, raising it in the air for a massive pop! Just then, Costa gets up and comes face to face with Riot. She offers a hand off to her, to which Riot accepts! The show cuts to black as Riot raises Costa’s hand with her title!

WINNER: SERENA RIOT
