[Intern]

The opening video for Fusion ends as we cut to a sold out State Farm Arena! The Atlanta fans are ranting and raving, clearly ready for a show!

Tripp Bennett: We’re nearly a week away from one of the biggest matches of the year! But for now, it’s time for the Most Exciting Two Hours of Wrestling on the Internet! Welcome everyone…to Friday Night Fusion! I’m Tripp Bennett, joined as always by my broadcast colleague, Alivia Takasoto!

Alivia Takasoto: Tonight’s gonna be a good one, Tripp! We’ve got a huge World Heavyweight Championship match, as well as an exciting YouTube Title match to boot! Let’s begin!

Match #1: Penelope vs Lily Lopez



Penelope and Lopez start off by locking up, with the former getting the upper hand to open! Penelope gets in a Wristlock, one that is surprisingly reversed by Lopez! She locks the hand of Penelope, taking her over to the corner of the ring before climbing up to the top rope and leaping off to deliver a Hurricanrana! Penelope pops back up to her feet, looking to regain control with a Clothesline! But Lopez ducks underneath, hitting the ropes before returning to Penelope, looking for a Satellite DDT! Penelope reverses however, pushing Lopez away before catching her with a Low Dropkick to her legs when she returns! Lopez falls forward, getting to her hands and knees before being completely leveled by a Running Knee Strike from Penelope! She goes for the pin, leaning back on Lopez!

ONE…!

Lopez grapevines the pin attempt, lowering Penelope’s shoulders to the mat for a Crucifix Pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

THREE-

Kick out by Penelope, just barely escaping a very surprising nearfall! The two competitors get back to their feet, with Penelope being the first to strike, once again going for a Lariat! But Lopez ducks underneath, going towards the ropes and popping up, before diving onto Penelope for a Springboard Crossbody! Penelope catches this however, rolling through with Lopez in hand, before swinging her around for a Uranage Side Slam! Lopez reverses now, however, using the momentum of Penelope’s swing against her and hitting a DDT! Penelope pops up to her feet, likely unable to tell where she is staggering into the corner! Lopez looks for the advantage, going for a Shoulder Thrust to Penelope in the corner! She misses however, with Penelope throwing her legs up and hooking them under Lopez’s arms to deliver a Sunset Flip Powerbomb! She goes for the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

Kick out by Lopez! Penelope is ready to finish things off now, getting Lopez in position for Sudden Death! But Lopez reverses, snatching Penelope off the second rope with an Arm Drag! Penelope tries to get back into things now, but she quickly gets caught with a Flying Forearm from Lopez! She pops back to her feet, only to be caught with a second Flying Forearm! Penelope gets up once more, being hit with a Spinning Heel Kick that sends her into the corner! Lopez catches up with her, getting her in position before taking her to the mat with a Tornado DDT! Lopez takes to the top rope now, waiting for Penelope to get to her feet before hitting her with a TOP ROPE CROSSBODY!! Lopez goes for the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!


THR-

Kick out by Penelope! Lopez is ready to end this now, taking to the top rope, before launching off for the Lily Pad Splash! But Penelope gets the knees up, jamming them into Lopez’s ribs! She keeps a hold on Lopez’s arms however, getting to her feet, before pulling her in for LEUCOTOMY!! Penelope goes for the pin!

ONE…!

Alex Lawson: The winner of this match…Penelope!

Tripp Bennett: Another impressive win by Penelope here tonight!

Alivia Takasoto: This girl is on a roll and I love it! She’s definitely my favorite to win the Madness Rumble next Saturday!

Penelope celebrates as we fade to the next scene

WINNER: PENELOPE (VIA PINFALL)



The scene starts with Trinity members Brooke Cartwright and Valentina Skye, dressed in their new ring attire along with Delilah Hill, who looks fabulous in her attire. All of them are on their custom made chairs that make them look like REAL Queens. The cameras roll on Valentina, who looks pissed off.

Valentina Skye:: For the past couple of weeks, Zion has made US, the most dominant stable in this company and the most POWERFUL ladies in this locker room, look like damn fools and honestly, I am sick and freaking tired of it!

She eyes the camera with a serious look on her face.

Valentina Skye:: What the hell is everyone’s problem with us? Are you seriously preventing us from becoming on top of the mountain? WHAT IS IT ZION!?

She eyes her girls before looking back at the camera

Valentina Skye:: You know what? You won’t like us when we are angry and tonight, this will be EXAMPLE as Queen Brooke and I will be teaming up to take out TWO peasants that are BENEATH US!

Valentina’s rage begins to show more, but Delilah manages to calm her down. Before long, Brooke begins to speak.

Brooke Cartwright:: The three of us are the best thing you have in Zion Wrestling, and for damn sure something as miniscule as Fusion. We are the ones who can take this company to places they can only dream about and you….YOU…want to throw it all the way. And for what? To hang your hope on a bunch of mediocre underlisters who are either too proud or too stupid…

Brooke eyes the girls before looking back at the camera.

Brooke Cartwright::….definitely banking on the latter, to know what’s best for them? Take Zachary Porter for instance. That’s right “old friend”, you know that I was going to be talking about you. Your “victory” over my sister Delilah last week is as pointless as your “crusade” in eradicating us. I thought you were a lot smarter than this. You’re no different than anyone else of these dumb idiots who need to be forced to know their places; obliging to what WE want. And we can be dangerous bitches if we don’t get what we want, which YOU WILL find out when we eventually crush you and your quest, just like everyone else who’s foolish enough to defy us and what we’re trying to do for the GREATER GOOD of Fusion.

Delilah & Valentina nod their heads in agreement as Brooke continues.

Brooke Cartwright:: Code Black, there’s not one woman in this room that doesn’t respect what you’re doing in Fusion. Your undefeated record and your long run as World Tag Team Champions speaks volumes. In fact, we respect you girls more than respect anyone in the back. Another thing we’re not going to undermine is this influence of fear that you have over everyone in Fusion, like female Gullivers presiding over Lilliputians. Well tonight, “Wicked Bitches” you’re going to be facing a pair of brobdingnagians. If you don’t know the word? Look it up, filthy scalawags! But you don’t have to. Just concentrate on how many seconds it will take for me and Valentina’s foot to come down on you two when we squash you peasants like the bugs that you are, sending a message that even the most notorious scoundrels across the pond will never measure up to this divine greatness.

Delilah takes the stand next.

Delilah Hill: The embarrassment, the mistreatment and the humiliation of Trinity ends TONIGHT! Us three ladies should be treated with respect, honor and class! That is why tonight, Brooke and Valentina will go into this match up, with their heads up high and looking classy in defeating Code Black! You two will learn WHY Trinity is the elite group in this company when both of these lovely ladies defeat you in the ring!

All Three members of Trinity stand up as Valentina looks into the camera with a evil scowl on her face.

Valentina Skye:: Hac nocte, omnes sciunt, qui Trinitas VERE est! Tempus inclinare!
(Tonight, everyone will KNOW who Trinity REALLY is! Time to BOW down! )

All of them walk out of the locker room to their match. Revenge is on their minds.



Match #2: Brooke Cartwright & Valentina Skye vs Code Black



Brooke Cartwright and Ravyn Nightshade start off for their respective teams! Cartwright makes the intelligent play right off the bat, going for the legs of Ravyn in order to cut off her more dynamic moveset! She gets a hold of Ravyn’s right leg, leaving her off-balance! She goes for an Enziguri to Cartwright to keep her away, but Cartwright ducks underneath, sending her to the mat! Cartwright keeps a hold on Ravyn’s leg, driving it into the mat knee first to cause massive damage! She drags Ravyn into the corner, sliding underneath the bottom rope and out of the ring! Cartwright sets up, looking for the Figure Four Leglock in the ringpost! But Ravyn reverses, using her legs to pull Cartwright into the steel post head first! Cartwright staggers, leaning on the ringpost for support! But Ravyn uses this to her advantage, climbing to the apron and running over to deliver a Meteora right into Cartwright’s head and into the steel post! The shot seems to affect both of them, as Ravyn begins to favor the knees that she drove into the steel! Nevertheless, Ravyn capitalizes, throwing Cartwright back into the ring and going for the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

Kick out by Cartwright! Ravyn goes to get her to her feet, getting her in position before throwing her with a Fallaway Slam! But fantastically enough, Cartwright avoids hitting the mat, catching herself horizontally between the top and middle ropes and leaning across nonchalantly! She gives Ravyn a cocky stare, prompting her to attempt an attack! Cartwright avoids her however, slipping onto the apron and catching Ravyn with a Kick! The World Tag Champion staggers back, leaving an opening for Cartwright to get to the top rope and nail her with a Falling Ax Handle! She wrenches the arm now, taking her to her corner and tagging in Valentina Skye! She gets into the ring, stepping back before unloading a vicious Bicycle Kick to the side of Ravyn’s head! She capitalizes, getting Ravyn in position before attempting to throw her to the mat with a Suplex! Ravyn reverses however, instead pulling Skye down to the mat with a Straight Jacket Mat Slam! Ravyn quickly recovers now, tagging in Olivia Nightshade!

Olivia enters the ring, immediately getting her sister up in the air in position for an Inverted Scoop Powerslam! She hovers over Skye, content on sending Ravyn down onto her for a double team maneuver, but just then, Brooke Cartwright tries to intervene! Olivia pivots now, throwing Ravyn into an approaching Cartwright and sending them both out of the ring, before catching Skye as she gets back to her feet with a Forearm! She follows up with a Spinning Backfist, before finishing off with a Discus Lariat that turns her inside out! She goes for the pin now!

ONE…!

TWO…!

Kick out by Skye! Olivia is looking to end this one however, running over as she gets up and looking for Taste That Leather, B*tch! But Skye moves out of the way, catching Olivia out of nowhere with LA LIGHTS!! DIAMOND CUTTER CONNECTS!! Skye with the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

THRE-

Kick out by Olivia! Skye grabs Olivia by the throat, getting her to her feet to set up for Skye’s out! But she’s caught completely off guard, as Olivia retorts with a hand to the throat of her own, eventually weakening Skye down for a Chokeslam! Skye gets to her feet, with Olivia scooping her up and throwing her down to the mat with DARK SILENCE!! JOKER DRIVER CONNECTS!! Olivia with the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

THREE!



Alex Lawson: The winner of this match…Code! Black!

Tripp Bennett: The Nightshade Sisters cop their ninth straight win in a row, tying the record for most consecutive wins in Zion Wrestling history!

Alivia Takasoto: The only question that remains to be answered is can the Valkyries snap the undefeated record of Code Black? And if not, who can?

Ravyn and Olivia celebrate as we fade out.

WINNER: CODE BLACK (VIA PINFALL)



Tonight’s main event challenger Cass Baumer sits against the wall with her legs extended beside a humming steam boiler water tank. Sweat drips down her arms and off her neck in the hot basement. Exposed pipes line the beige walls running to various spots of the State Farm Arena upstairs.

Cass Baumer: Y’all seen Empire Strikes Back, yeah? Space smuggler Han Solo flies the Millennium Falcon headlong through the asteroid field with a whole lotta TIE Fighters at his back. C-3PO tries to tell ‘em about his low chance of survival when Han shouts back, “never tell me the odds!”

Baumer’s black with white trim sports bra has dark stains along the cleavage, while shorts showcase a stylized eight stitched at the front of her right leg, imitating a soccer uniform. Stockings covering shin pads reach right below the knee with scuffed, dirty white sneakers wrapped in black athletic tape at the end of her legs.

Cass Baumer: I shoulda followed Solo’s example.

The Fusion Report hostess chuckles softly. Before she can wrap her left hand with the athletic tape beside her in a travel bag, though, the camera zooms in on a faint tiny scar from the time she needed a temporary metal plate to stabilize her wrist after a distal radius fracture.

Cass Baumer: When I checked the sportsbooks this afternoon, my odds of beating Daria Dorsey tonight stood at around +525 to -750.

The same kind of black athletic tape that wrapped around her sneakers now supported her previously injured wrist, too.

Cass Baumer: In laymen’s terms, according to these betting ‘experts,’ if Daria and I fought 100 times on 100 different nights, I’d lose 70 frickin’ times! Given the data set on offer, it makes sense, though. Dorsey’s beaten me before at Friday Night Fusion episode 24. She’s trained with some of the best teachers around. She’s capitalised on that Chance Briefcase opportunity. Hell, she’s in two Match Of The Year 2021 candidates — even if one of them is the night she lost that Summer Bash YouTube Championship Ladder Match to the dude that Reina Mendoza eradicated from the company whose name I can’t seem to remember! Yeah, Zion Wrestling’s been open for five months. Still, Daria’s already established herself as one to watch here even before that YouTube Invasion: New York gauntlet eliminator match that made her famous.

Baumer nods, her blue eyes sprinkled with green specks at the edges pointed forward with a matter-a-fact glimmer.

Cass Baumer: And what have I done here worth a damn? I fought for the YouTube Championship in a losing effort against Razzles Mars and another guy I ain’t supposed to mention. I’ve taken control of the Fusion Report show when Kai Morgan decided to abandon it like he abandons tag team partners. And through all that, here I am as Daria’s first (and last) defence ‘cause I dared to criticise the champion with one word in a five-minute episode of Fusion Report.

One side of her mouth tilts up into a smirk as the hum of the boiler room continues to buzz in the background. Then, she starts to climb to her feet with her good arm as support before she starts to pace with her focus on the camera.

Cass Baumer: That’s right! Even after all she’s accomplished, Daria was so bothered by what I had to say in one single frickin’ word that she went into a social media tailspin that kicked this all off. The pressure of the Zion Wrestling World Heavyweight Championship must have gotten to her already. Or she kept thinkin’ about when New Frontier Wrestling’s Adrianna Salvatore speared her outta her boots at the end of Fusion: First Of The Year. She ain’t used to this level of disrespect and scrutiny, so when I hit that target painted on her back, she lashed out from atop her great ivory tower like the elitist asshole she is!

As The Headliner shouts, her Kiwi accented voice reverberates throughout the big near-empty space.

Cass Baumer: Not all of us are fit for the spotlight. She’ll get used to it eventually. Or she’ll collapse from the radiation.

She nods as if too proud of what she had to say.

Cass Baumer: Daria Dorsey’s proven she’s one of the best wrestlers on not just the Fusion roster but all of Zion Wrestling. There’s no dispute. But if she and I fought 100 times on 100 different nights, I’d win 30 frickin’ times! And all I’ve gotta do is beat her once to become World Heavyweight Champ. Then I’m takin’ the title back with me to Chicago.

Baumer cheekily blows the camera a kiss as Fusion continues.



Match #3: Kara Carbajal vs Helena Handbasket



At the bell, Helena sprints at Kara and hits her with a clothesline! Kara stays on her feet and Helena kicks at her midsection and then tosses a back elbow! Kara takes a step back and holds her face and Helena launches into a superkick! Kara grabs the leg and pulls Helena in close, popping her up onto her shoulders and into a Samoan drop! Helena rolls away as Kara goes to her knees and stares straight ahead.

Kara looks over at Helena and then marches over and pulls her to her feet. She tosses her with a belly-to-belly suplex! She picks her right back up and hits her with another! Kara doesn’t relent as she pulls her back to her feet again and hits her with another belly-to-belly suplex! Kara lets out a primal scream and hits her chest before she looks down at Helena. Kara stalks Helena as she tries to crawl to the ropes and pulls her to her feet. Kara goes for a suplex, but Helena starts kicking at her shin!

Kara takes a step back and Helena uses the opening to leap at Kara and lock in a sleeper hold! Kara reaches back for her and can’t get ahold of her. Kara goes down to a knee and tries to grab Helena and pry her off, but Helena tightens the hold! Kara works her way back to her feet and Helena leaps and wraps her legs around Kara! Kara takes a step forward and jumps, forcing herself to land back first on top of Helena! She turns around and hooks her leg!


ONE…

TWO…

Helena kicks out and Kara goes right back on the offensive, reaching down to grab her by the hair. Helena swings around from the ground with a haymaker of a left hook! Kara lets go and takes a step back. Kara touches her lip and then looks at Helena, who runs in with a forearm that catches Kara by surprise! Kara backwards as Helena runs to the corner. Kara chases right behind and goes for a SPEAR! Helena jumps over the top rope and Kara slams into the post!

Kara turns around in the corner as Helena gets back in and runs in for CHAOS BOX! The high knee hits Kara and staggers her! Helena’s eyes go wide and she runs to the other side and comes back for BLURRED LINES! The Bronco Buster! Helena pulls Kara out of the corner and then scrambles down to the mat for the pin!

ONE…

Kara kicks out almost before the official can hit one with his count! Helena shows the shock as she stands up and puts her hands on her hips. Helena shakes her head and takes a step back and beckons Kara to her feet. Kara takes a moment as she stirs on the ground. Kara stands and turns into SCREW U! SPINNING KNEE from Helena! Kara ducks it! She grabs Helena with both hands and choke bombs her into the mat!

Kara stumbles back a few steps into the corner and watches Helena as she slowly recovers from the move. Kara moves to another corner as Helena stands and then runs at her with a STIFF LARIAT! Helena flips around and lands on the mat! Kara grins as she picks her up. JACKHAMMER! Kara looks at Helena and thinks about the pin, but her grin grows wider!

Kara pulls Helena to her feet and then goes behind her. REAR NAKED CHOKE! Helena is barely there, but she manages to put up a small fight as Kara locks it in! Kara wraps her legs around for the bodyscissors and they fall to the mat! Helena reaches out for the ropes from the middle of the ring, but she looks out of it. Kara tightens the hold as the official checks on Helena. She’s unconscious!

Kara holds on to the hold for a few seconds after the bell. She relents at the officials begging and tosses her opponent away.



Alex Lawson: The winner of this match via submission…Kara! Carbajal!

Tripp Bennett: What a vicious display by Kara Carbajal here tonight!

AT1Alivia Takasoto: If anything she’s just shown Helena Handbasket, as well as all of Zion, that she’s not fucking around anymore!

Carbajal stands over Handbasket as we fade out!

WINNER: KARA CARBAJAL (VIA SUBMISSION)



We open with Solomon Graham standing in his studio (formerly the FWA promo studio in Toronto, Canada). He paces back and forth, looking up and down as he does so, before turning to face the camera.

:::SOLOMON GRAHAM:::
Y’know… I’ve had a bit of time to think about it and… after doing just that, I’ve realized something…

He pauses. It seems he’s trying to find the right words.

:::SOLOMON GRAHAM:::
My entire tenure here in Zion… has been awful.

He pauses once again.

:::SOLOMON GRAHAM:::
I went from being one of the first two to ever compete for the Zion World Heavyweight championship, to being cheated out of a win by some… harlot… who was in denial over the fact that she doesn’t even belong in this sport, to now… where I’ve lost everything.

He stops again. It seems that thinking about this is causing him some distress.

:::SOLOMON GRAHAM:::
FWA is gone, being shut down due to the hostile takeover of Justin Trudeau. I abandoned a place that I’d been part of for over two years as a means of dealing with this fact, and I’ve done nothing but lose in Zion. I’ve done nothing except let the fans down each and every single time I’ve stepped up to fight the good fight. And… to put it bluntly, I’ve been feeling pretty down and out. About all of it.

He pauses, looking down at the ground.

:::SOLOMON GRAHAM:::
But…

He holds up one finger.

:::SOLOMON GRAHAM:::
Maybe… it doesn’t have to be like that. Maybe… there’s still a way that I can redeem myself in the eyes of the Zion fans. Maybe… and maybe the way to do that is to abandon who I was… in favour of more focus. Maybe I’ve been focusing on the wrong things. Maybe… in calling myself a Paragon, and in believing that I am a Paragon… I’ve lost touch with the fact that there’s always someone out there who’s better than you.

He cracks his neck before continuing on.

:::SOLOMON GRAHAM:::
Well… not anymore. From now on, you can consider “The Paragon Of Professional Wrestling” and “The Wired King” dead. In his place, you will find me. Solomon Graham. A man who’s nothing more and nothing less than dangerous to anyone and everyone who steps up. Always willing to go the distance, never willing to back down.

He smirks…

:::SOLOMON GRAHAM:::
Or maybe…

The smirk slowly fades.

:::SOLOMON GRAHAM:::
Or maybe… I need to leave. I don’t know, folks. I honestly don’t know. My head… it’s all over the place as of late. I’m trying to find some semblance of focus… but I can’t seem to find it. Not now, at least. Maybe…

From there… he walks off screen and we go to our next segment.



Match #4: Las Olvidadas vs The Gemstones



Sangre and Ruby Steele start things off for their respective teams! The two go for a Collar and Elbow Tie Up, with Sangre initially gaining the upper hand with a Side Headlock! Steele eventually finds an escape route, pushing back against Sangre and sending her into the ropes! She bounces her off, but doesn’t give her a chance to rush across the ring, instead driving her straight down to the mat with an Arm Drag! She keeps on Sangre, hyper-extending the arm to weaken that limb! Sangre eventually gets back into it, getting her feet and rolling forward to free her arm before catching her with a Side Headlock right off of it! She takes Steele down to the mat with a Leg Sweep that sends her falling forward! Sangre quickly transitions, going for a Grounded Front Facelock!

CHAMPIONSHIP RETAINED



We see a desk and a similar intro to the Colbert Report, before Daria kicked through the greenscreen as she has her title around her waist and began to speak about her opponent.

Daria Dorsey: "I was about to do this whole song and dance to parody Cass Baumer's little show, do her thing better than her... but, then I realized that isn't me."

She said, folding her arms across her chest.

Daria Dorsey: "I'm not the champ because I stir the pot. Oh, no, no. I won this title by beating Serena Riot in a hellacious match and making her tap out in the center of the ring. And Cass Baumer is about to learn what happens when someone tries to take this belt from my waist, and money out of my pocket."

She said with a sassy tone, as Daria puts her hands on her hips.

Daria Dorsey: "Cass wants to rep NFW, the people who sabotaged my moment and my home, and take this away from me? It ain't happening. She wants to go toe to toe with me, Cass is in for a world of hurt. I'm coming into that ring like a bulldozer with a wrecking ball attached. I'll leave a ring around her eye and treadmarks on her back! This belt is staying here with me, and that is a promise."

Daria said firmly, as the camera would cut to the next segment.



Match #6: Floyd Nelson vs Kyle Valentine



Floyd Nelson bursts right out of the gate on the younger Valentine with quickfire boxing offense to the body, to the face, wherever he can land punches. Kyle shelters himself with his arms, moving to try to soften Floyd’s attacks on him. He’s not quite gast enough as the veteran is able to change levels on him. A few shots to the body and head land flush. In Kyle’s defensive efforts, he finds himself back into a corner. Floyd winds up for a big haymaker but Kyle evades in time. Now it’s Valentine’s turn to throw hands and Nelson’s turn to try to cover up. The young Valentine does a bit of a flashy flip to create space. He takes the opportunity to be a bit of a showman, smiling at the crowd and smirking at Nelson. Nelson takes exception to this, charging forward. Kyle ducks under, bouncing off the ropes and connecting with a backfist. He bounces off the ropes again to hit a rolling wheel kick. Down goes the Milwaukee native! Kyle certainly likes this fast pace. Floyd rolls his way onto the floor.

Kyle Valentine has always been very open about being a rookie, and a will to always expand his game. He rallies the crowd, wanting to go for something big. He charges, going for a suicide dive, that’s new! OH NO! He catches his leg in the rope and crashes hard. Like a shark, “The Inevitable Heartlessness” goes straight on the attack. Huge powerbomb on the outside! A zoomed in camera angle catches a crazed look in the debuting gentleman’s eyes. He urges Valentine to his feet as he gets in the ring. The crowd pops as Nelson flies through the ropes like a missile, pushing Valentine into the announce desk at ringside. Floyd beats his chest, yelling about how “that’s how it’s done!” As Valentine lays on his side against the desk, Floyd stomps a mudhole into and through Kyle’s face. The crowd is in a frenzy, loving Nelson's unhinged violent attitude.

“HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT!”

Nelson rolls Valentine back into the ring, rubbing his forearm across the face of Valentine. Three times before he settles into a pin.

ONE!
TWO!

Kyle gets a shoulder up.

Floyd looks to keep his foot on the gas, deadlifting Valentine and tossing him with a dragon suplex. He deadlifts again, half-nelson style. Kyle blocks it! A snapmare creates space and Kyle hits a leg-feed enziguri. With his opponent staggered, Kyle hits a snap suplex. He hangs on and transitions to a Northern Lights! As Floyd gets up he reaches for his aching back. A trifecta now as Kyle capitalizes with a tiger suplex. The kid’s young, but is a suplex beast in his own right. Finally a cover attempt!

ONE!
TWO!

No! Floyd kicks out.

Kyle is looking annoyed, he slaps the mat twice before getting to his feet and getting Floyd up to his as well. He would push Floyd back before whipping him to the corner with all his might, as Nelson hits the post and slumped into a seated position. Valentine looks to knock his opponent silly with a running double knee smash, but a drop toehold sends him face first into the middle turnbuckle!

As Kyle groggily gets out of the corner he’s pushed right back into it by a shotgun dropkick! Floyd looks to follow up, he calls his lawn dart “Silent Majority". He hits it! Kyle falls onto the floor right in front of the announce table. Floyd can’t help himself. He wanted to make an impression. He clears the announce desk. He bashes Kyle’s head into it a couple times. He gets up on the table and brings Kyle with him. Double underhook! There could be a Corpsemaker on the way. No! Kyle fights out of it! He slides off the table, cutting at the knee sending Floyd to crash hard, laying across the table. The Cameron youngster thinks for a moment, looking between the table, the ring and everything in between. What could he be thinking? He glances out at the fans and takes a deep breath.

“OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD!”

“ZION WREST-LING! *clap clap clap clap clap* ZION WREST-LING!”

Iconoclasm off the table to the floor!

Both men are laid out, needing a few counts by the ref before stirring.

6!
7!
8!
9!


Both Nelson and Valentine slide under the bottom rope just in time!

Kyle looks to be in better shape as he’s able to get Nelson up for Monster Mash, the cradle suplex sit out spinebuster! It connects! But not all of it, and Kyle even rolls out of a potential cover! The Heartless Milwaukee man raked Kyle’s eyes on the way down!

Both men are wobbly as they syart to exchange strikes. Floyd with a shoot kick! Kyle with a punch, forearm to the face from Nelson, a dropkick from Valentine! Down goes Nelson!

ONE!
TWO!
THR-


No! It’s not over!

Kyle is incredibly frustrated as he looks to gather himself, facing the corner. He looks to be set to hit the Black Meteor springboard kick-NOBODY HOME! He crashes into the mat below. He stays bent over as he struggles to stand. Unfortunately for him but fortunately for Mr. Nelson, he’s in perfect position for a vicious running knee known as End Your Sentence!

Kyle’s out cold, but Floyd wants to leave nothing to chance. He pulls the deadweight that is his opponent and hooks both arms.

CORPSEMAKER!

ONE!
TWO!
THREE!




Alex Lawson: The winner of this match…Floyd! Nelson!

Tripp Bennett: What a win by the newcomer Floyd Nelson!

Alivia Takasoto: With moves like that, this dude’s got a huge career in store for him!

Nelson stands over Valentine as we fade out!

WINNER: FLOYD NELSON (VIA PINFALL)

Match #7: Serena Riot vs Solomon Graham



Riot comes out of the gate with full steam, catching Graham right out of the bell with a Dropkick that sends him into the corner! Riot continues the attack in the corner, looking for a set of lethal Knee Strikes and Uppercuts in the corner, before stepping back and going for a Shoulder Thrust! She misses however, with Graham jumping up and catching her with a Schoolboy Roll Up Pin!

ONE…!


TWO…!

Kick out by Riot, but Graham isn’t finished with her, catching her with Kick to the side of the head as she tries to get to her feet! She staggers back up now, and Graham takes advantage, hitting the ropes to hit her with a Big Boot! But Riot reverses, scooping Graham up off the move and dropping him with a Sit Out Powerbomb! Riot with the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

Kick out by Graham! Riot is finished with him already getting him in position right out of the pin for Psychosis! But Graham reverses, throwing Riot to the mat with a Back Body Drop! Before going for the Court of Miracles! Graham leathers Riot with a set of stiff Elbows to the side of the head! He goes for the all-important tenth spinning Elbow! But Riot blocks it, catching Graham with a Big Boot that sends him to the mat! She takes the top rope, launching off and hitting Graham with HEADSTRONG!! DIVING HEADBUTT CONNECTS!! Riot with the pin!

She’s hunched over, leaving her open for Graham to take her down with SHATTERED NECK BRILLIANCE!! PILEDRIVER CONNECTS!! Graham with the pin!

ONE…!

Alex Lawson: The winner of this match…Solomon! Graham!

Graham rolls out of the ring, taken completely by surprise at the idea that he just pinned a former World Champion! He backs up the ramp as we go to commercial break for a final time!

WINNER: SOLOMON GRAHAM (VIA PINFALL)

[Intern]

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

Crowd: ONE FALL!

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



After a moment, Queens Of The Stone Age's "Smooth Sailing vocals make the crowd stand to their feet in anticipation. The shot slowly descends, gradually revealing a confident Cass Baumer in a blue sleeveless moto jacket showing off her small tribal shoulder tattoo, sports bra, and soccer-inspired gear with checker patterned running sneakers. Instead of her typical jovial demeanor, she paces down the aisle while the Zion Wrestling audience continue to show their appreciation. Once she makes it to ringside, she slides into the ring. The palpable cheers grow in intensity as she bounces back to her feet and mounts the ropes, raising the fist with pride as she answers the visceral reaction of the crowd with a guttural shout of her own!



The opening notes would play as Daria came out with a green and white boxing robe, as she turned around which revealed her last name. She would then pose briefly, before turning around to reveal the belt around her waist as she shadowboxed on the way to the ramp and raised both of her arms up. Daria would slap the hands of fans on the way to the ring, as the champ enters under the bottom rope, before rolling in and readying to fight.

Alex Lawson: Introducing first…the challenger…from Wellington, New Zealand…weighing in at 141 lbs…”The Headliner”...Cass! Baumer!

And her opponent…from Rochester, New York…weighing in at 152 lbs…she is the Zenith of Zion…and the Zion Wrestling World! Heavyweight! Champion…Daria! Dorsey!



Baumer and Dorsey approach one another in the center of the ring, with the two locking hand in hand to start things off! They go to lock their other free hands with a bit of trepidation, but either out of awareness of her opponents grappling prowess or just plain impatience, Baumer doesn’t wait around! She instead wrenches Dorsey’s arm, getting in a firmly applied Wristlock! But Dorsey is able to escape, rolling forward to untwist her arm, before getting Baumer into a Wristlock of her own! She quickly transitions into a Side Headlock, but this only seems to give Baumer a route of escape! She pushes back against Dorsey, pushing her into the ropes and attempting to bounce towards the other side of the ring. This strategy fails however, with Dorsey sliding to the mat to stall their momentum, before quickly transitioning into a Guillotine Hold to further weaken Baumer! The challenger is struggling at the offset, unable to pry the well applied hold from around her head! Eventually, however, Baumer is able to get some motion going, pushing back against Dorsey in order to make it her feet. She gets a slight lift on Dorsey, bringing her feet inches off the ground before pushing her off, removing her grip as if she were taking off a necklace!

Dorsey charges at Baumer now, with the Headliner being well prepared by sidestepping the champion and pushing her into the ropes! This seems to help to Dorsey’s benefit, however, as The Zenith jumps onto the middle rope and looks for a Springboard Uppercut! Baumer is able to avoid this, however, catching Dorsey out of mid air into a Waistlock, before taking her to the mat with a Belly-To-Back Facebuster! She quickly transitions, sliding over Dorsey’s back and applying a Grounded Front Facelock! Dorsey tries to push up against the force of Baumer in order to escape, but her opponent has it scouted! Baumer flops to the mat with Dorsey in tow, giving her zero room to try and make an escape! Dorsey is in trouble now, but eventually finds a way to escape! She rolls over onto her back with Baumer still having a good hold on her head! With both their backs to the mat, Dorsey begins to arch her back, working Baumer’s shoulders to the mat for the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

Baumer gets the shoulder up, inadvertently releasing the hold, Dorsey is able to gain control now, immediately snatching her into a Side Headlock! Baumer is in trouble now, immediately shifting herself over to the ropes and managing to just barely get the tip of her foot onto the bottom rope! The referee breaks up the hold, allowing Baumer to get a bit of breathing room away from Dorsey! Dorsey isn’t giving in just yet, however, getting Baumer to her feet and looking for a Spike Piledriver to take her to the mat with! But Baumer reverses, getting Dorsey off her feet yet again, before backing into the ropes and sending her crashing to the outside with a Back Body Drop! Baumer catches her breath for a bit, turning around and seemingly realizing what she had just done! Baumer wastes no time, already noticing Dorsey starting to stir as she gears herself up! Baumer hits the ropes, before running to the other side of the ring and…hitting the ropes again? Baumer bounces back to the opposite side of the ring once more now, with it becoming evident that she’s trying to build up as much momentum as possible! She makes her way over to Dorsey’s side of the ring now with the speed of a bullet train, launching herself out to hit the champion with a Tope Suicida! But Dorsey reverses it, catching Baumer clean out of midair with a Thrust Kick! Baumer hits the ground at ringside with a thud, with her eyes immediately beginning to sport a glassy, dazed expression! She begins to scramble to her feet against the barricade, seemingly more out of primal instinct than the fact that she’s actually recovered from the shot!

Dorsey gets Baumer to her feet, going for an Irish Whip to the ring post in order to capitalize on the damage done to the mat! But Baumer leaps around the metal post, before catching Dorsey full-on with a Big Boot when she tries to approach! Baumer gets a hold on Dorsey’s arm, pulling her into the ring post and smacking her head into it! She goes for it a second time, then a third! Before long Dorsey begins to fight back, leaping out and catching Baumer in the head with a Forearm! She tries to capitalize with Short-Arm Lariat, but Baumer ducks underneath, getting Dorsey into a Straightjacket position before pulling her back first into the post with a quasi-German Suplex! She throws Dorsey back into the ring, going for the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

Kick out by Dorsey! Baumer is undeterred however, getting back to her feet and waiting for the champion in the corner! Dorsey starts to make her way back to a vertical base, and Baumer calls her shot! She runs towards Dorsey, looking for the Bleeding Edge! But Dorsey ducks underneath the dangerous swinging leg, catching it to trip her forwards to the mat, before going for a Heel Hook! Baumer is in trouble now, but to her fortunate circumstance, the two are positioned a bit closer to the ropes than Dorsey would’ve hoped! Baumer uses this to her advantage, immediately getting a hold on the ropes in order to escape! This doesn’t stop Dorsey, however, who in a rage milks every last second of the referee’s five count before relieving her of the hold!

Dorsey is finished with Baumer now, with her now being the one waiting for the challenger to make it to her feet! When she does, Dorsey goes to finish her off, hitting the ropes and looking for the Firespin DDT! But Baumer reverses, stopping her momentum in mid air and pushing her away into the corner! Baumer immediately bursts into action here, going for a European Uppercut to keep Dorsey at bay! Baumer props Dorsey up on the top rope, looking for something devastating here! She gets Dorsey in position, looking to boost her up for a Superplex! But the champion isn’t budging, with Dorsey sending a few shots to Baumer’s midsection in order to ward her off! Baumer stumbles off the turnbuckle, returning to the mat now as Dorsey prepares herself on the top rope! Baumer gets back to her feet, just in time to catch a Diving Meteora from Dorsey! That dazed look begins to permeate Baumer’s face again, showing she’s clearly out of it as Dorsey goes for the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

TH-

Kick out by Baumer! Dorsey doesn’t let up on her however, getting Baumer to her feet and taking her back down to the mat headfirst with a Spike Piledriver! Another pin by Dorsey!

ONE…!

TWO…!
THR-

Kick out by Baumer again! Dorsey begins to up the ante now, getting Baumer up and taking her down with a second Spike Piledriver! She isn’t done, however, rolling through to take Baumer down with a third Spike Piledriver! She does the same again, going for a FOURTH one now! Dorsey with the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

THREE-

Kick out by Baumer! Dorsey is conflicted now, having no idea how to put away her opponent! She eventually takes to the corner, waiting for Baumer to reach her feet! When she does, Dorsey springs into action, going for a Bicycle Knee Lift! But Baumer moves out of the way, catching Dorsey out of nowhere with a German Suplex! Dorsey tries to make it to her feet, but Baumer immediately follows it up, catching her with the BLEEDING EDGE!! PENALTY KICK CONNECTS!! Baumer with the pin!

ONE…!

TWO…!

THREE-

Kick out by Dorsey! We nearly had a new World Champion there! Baumer gets Dorsey to her feet, looking to finish things off with the Fact Check! But Dorsey reverses, catching her with a Half Nelson Slam that sends her to the mat! She begins to tear into the damaged head of Baumer, sending vicious stomp after stomp to her dome! Each one seemingly brings her glossy expression back little-by-little! Dorsey doubles down on her attack now, getting a hold on Baumer’s arms and forcing her boot right into her face to make sure she’s completely battened down! Dorsey wastes no time from there, transitioning right into DARIA’S INFERNO!! EDGEACATOR IS IN!! Baumer still has a bit more fight left in her, reaching for the ropes! But that fire is completely washed out by Dorsey, who sends a few more stomps to her head to keep her out of motion! The damage to her head and the pain being dealt to her back and legs finally catch up to Baumer, with her eyes slowly closing and her body going completely limp! The referee tries to see if she’s still with us, but she isn’t responding in the slightest! The referee calls for the bell! This one’s over!



Alex Lawson: The winner of this match via submission…and STILL Zion Wrestling World Heavyweight Champion…Daria! Dorsey!

Tripp Bennett: What a match from Daria Dorsey, defending her title against a gamed competitor like Cass Baumer in her first defense!

Alivia Takasoto: Cass Baumer may not have walked away with the belt, but she gave a champion’s effort Tripp!

Tripp Bennett: With that said, I’m Tripp Bennett! Wishing you all a fantastic ni–

Alivia Takasoto: Wait a minute, Tripp! The fuck’s going on here?

Dorsey raises her belt in the air, standing over Baumer as she still tries to shake off the cobwebs from that match! Out of the corner of her eye, however, she notices the presence of another person in the ring…in fact, she notices a couple of other people…

Daria turns her head, locking eyes with Ravyn Nightshade, who’s standing on the ring apron. She quickly looks around, seeing that the ring is completely surrounded. She switches her look over to the next side of the ring, spotting Maki Megumi…then the next side, spotting Olivia Nightshade, who gives her a playful, condescending wave back…she finally locks her eyes towards the last side of the ring, spotting Mai Blackman! The former marine looks right back at her, immediately bobbing her head back to signal Dorsey to leave. Dorsey heeds Blackman’s gesture, sliding underneath the bottom rope and clutching her World Heavyweight Title as she backs up the ramp. Just then, she backs into Kai Morgan, who’s made his way onto the entrance ramp just in time to catch her. He whispers in her ear, seemingly handing her instructions, before giving her a tap on the back as she steps through the curtain once again with determination.

Meanwhile, all four competitors make their way into the ring, just in time for Baumer to take notice. She knows exactly how this movie ends, and decides to flip the script, immediately going for Blackman with a Forearm! This triggers the other three to start attacking with a barrage of swings! The Nightshade sisters prey on Baumer with a set of ground punches, while Megumi is content on destroying Baumer’s spine with some shots from her boot! Code Black gets Baumer to her feet, pinning her arms back as Megumi begins looking for the Green Mist! But Baumer is able to escape, pulling Ravyn Nightshade right into the line of fire and letting her take a big cloud of green mist to her face! She recoils in horror, giving Baumer a chance to push her into Megumi, knocking them both over! They roll out of the ring, with Baumer ducking underneath a Short-Arm Clothesline from Olivia Nightshade and throwing her to the mat with a Straight Jacket German Suplex! Olivia rolls out of the ring now, leaving an opening for Baumer to go for a Suicide Dive! She runs towards the mass of humanity outside the ring, but gets caught stone dead with a DIAMOND CUTTER!! The hooded assailant from Mayhem has returned, taking out Baumer!

Kai Morgan finally makes his way into the ring, coming up to the hooded assailant! The two share a look at one another, before Morgan rips back to hood to reveal…IT’S DIAMOND STEELE!! DIAMOND STEELE WAS THE ONE UNDER THE HOOD THE ENTIRE TIME!! The two of them share a laugh together, as Morgan goes to grab a microphone.

Kai Morgan: Ho, boy! Cass, Cass, Cass, Cass, Cass…you didn’t really think I’d let you walk away empty handed did you?

Morgan thinks before choosing his next words.

Kai Morgan: From the very moment you put pen to paper here in Zion, you’ve done nothing but try to get your pound of flesh around here at MY expense! Did you seriously think I wasn’t gonna do anything about it?

Morgan now begins to crouch over the prone Baumer as he continues.

Kai Morgan: See…I knew VERY WELL that some of the people shared between us and the other side would get a real kick out of the whole tribalism thing. “Ooo, who’s gonna pick Zion?! Who’s gonna pick NFW?! The suspense! The drama!” But, you…I had no doubt where you were going. The thing that burns me up the most, however, is that you use MY time, MY network, MY programming to spew your propaganda to these people…and I’m sick of it!

Morgan gets back to his feet, wrapping an arm around the shoulder of Diamond Steele as all the other competitors get back into the ring and surround Baumer!

Kai Morgan: Diamond here already picked her side…and she picked the RIGHT side. So let this be a message NFW, because I know for a fact you’ve been watching, hoping ya girl brings the gold home for ya…You send another motherfucker like this into our house…we send ‘em back BROKEN!

Kai steps away from Baumer, allowing Diamond Steele and Maki Megumi to get her up to her feet! They pin her arms behind her back, with Mai Blackman running the ropes and catching Baumer over the head with THE SYSTEM!! SPINNING BACK ELBOW CONNECTS!! Meanwhile, Ravyn and Olivia Nightshade work together to clear both the announce tables, before dragging Baumer out of the ring and onto a table, getting her in position for Black Moon Falling! Before they complete the move however, Morgan approaches Baumer once more, holding up his microphone.

Kai Morgan: Oh yeah…and Baumer? I want whatever part of your brain that’s still functioning to listen very carefully…YOU’RE FIRED!

And with that, The Nightshade Sisters send Baumer crashing into the announcer’s desk with BLACK MOON FALLING!! DOUBLE MOONSAULT SIDESLAM THROUGH THE TABLE!! Morgan approaches Diamond Steele, giving her one last handshake as we go off the air!

WINNER: DARIA DORSEY (VIA SUBMISSION)
CHAMPIONSHIP RETAINED
