The opening video for Fusion ends as we cut to a sold out Barnhill Arena! The Fayetteville fans are ranting and raving, clearly ready for a show, as we cut to the announcers desk!
Sean Brady: Even a goddamned explosion can’t stop us from bringing you the most exciting two hours of wrestling on the internet! So much so that we brought you THREE hours of it this week! Welcome…to Fusion: Arrival V! I’m Sean Brady, joined by absolutely no one out of fear for more attacks like last week! But I ain’t afraid and I’m gonna bring you all the scoop for this week!
Match #1: Booty Call vs The Last of the Valkyries
World Tag Team Championship Match
Alex Lawson: The following tag team contest…is scheduled for one fall…
Crowd: ONE FALL!
Alex Lawson: And it is for the Zion Wrestling…WORLD! TAG TEAM! CHAMPIONSHIPS!
"Thot Shit" begins to play over the PA system. Cambrie Marie steps out from behind the curtain, small but imposing, a hand pressed to her brow bone as she eyes the crowd that's roaring with approval... and probably other complicated emotions. Cambrie mimes a hand to her ear, encouraging the crowd to give a larger reaction. Orchestrating the crowd, when their cheers are finally satisfactory, Cambrie looks over her shoulder. Curling her finger and beckoning upon her girls. Stepping out from the curtain is a curvaceous Latina, proud and coy, turning posing for the crowd. Another finger curl brings out a very tall, lean, muscular woman that towers over the both of them. While like her contemporaries, her gear is a bit on the revealing side, it's also practical, her fists taped and her dark hair secured out of her face in a high ponytail.
The girls link hands with one another, led by Cambrie Marie. The strut is a seductive, slow one with plenty of hip sways to allow their team name to truly be exemplified. Saraia and Yoon lift the very petite Cambrie onto the apron, allowing her to enter the ring and stand behind them as they get onto the apron. She disrobes them of their entrance jackets as the two bend into the ring between the top and middle ropes. Striking a pose in the center of the ring before the girls hold the ropes open for Cambrie to leave and take a spot at ringside.
As "Ride of The Valkyries” by Brothers of Metal begins to play, the arena goes dark except for a few spotlights on the stage as “snow” begins to fall on the staging area. Out walk Christina Olson and Lilith Meadows, stepping into the spotlights. They both have on Viking Warrior style outfits as they look at each other and they smash their forearms together. The redhead takes the lead down the ramp as Lilith, with her half masquerade mask on, follows behind, a sadistic, yet focused look on her face as they head straight towards the ring.
The two of them step into the ring and get into the middle as Christina drops to her knees and Lilith stands behind her, hands clasped on her shoulders. The two of them let out a battle scream before Christina gets up to her feet and begins to get the crowd to join them in a “Skol” chant before removing their garb and getting ready for the match.
Alex Lawson: Introducing first, the challengers…being accompanied to the ring by Cambrie Marie…at a combined weight of 263 lbs…Yoon Song and Saraia Diaz…Booty Call!
And their opponents…representing The Kingdom…from the Halls of Valhalla…at a combined weight of 235 lbs…they are the Zion Wrestling WORLD! TAG TEAM! CHAMPIONS…THE LAST! OF THE VALKYRIES!!
Christina Olson and Saraia Diaz start the match for their respective teams! The two circle the ring around each other, before coming to the center of the ring with a Collar-and-Elbow Tie-Up! Olson gets the advantage right away, going for Side Headlock! Diaz escapes however, slipping her head out of Olson’s grasp, transitioning behind Olson by pinning her arm behind her back! Olson is in trouble now, attempting to swing an arm back to Diaz in order to escape! But Diaz dodges it, hooking an arm around her head and dropping Olson with a Legsweep! Olson gets to her hands and knees in an attempt to get up, but Diaz quickly cuts her off with a Grounded Front Facelock! Olson continues to struggle as Diaz increases the pressure around her head! She eventually wills her way out of it, rising up before twisting around and bringing Diaz’s shoulders to the mat with a Backslide!

Kick out by Diaz! She rolls to her feet, right as Olson gets up as well! She gets into a Wheelbarrow position, looking for a Bulldog, but Olson pushes her away before getting the drop on her with a Backstabber! Diaz recoils on the ground, favoring her back as Olson goes for a Standing Moonsault! Diaz rolls out of the way, forcing Olson to land on her feet and try a second one to catch up with her! This time though, Diaz gets the knees up, with each of them being planted right into Olson’s chest! She staggers to her feet, leaving an opening for Diaz to run up and bring her to the mat with a Tilt-A-Whirl Headscissors Takedown! She keeps the legs wrapped up around Olson’s head, squeezing every last drop of tension out of it as Olson’s face becomes beet red! She struggles for a bit, before slowly lowering her shoulders to the mat to alleviate the stress! The referee checks closely for the mat contact, before counting the pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
Shoulder up by Olson! She gets a grasp on Diaz’s legs now, slowly prying her hands from around her head! But Diaz doubles down on her attack, wrapping her legs around Olson’s head even tighter! Olson kicks around eventually landing a foot on the bottom rope! The referee urges Diaz to release the hold, threatening to start his five count if she doesn’t! She keeps the hold on, waiting for the count of four to let go in a huff! She gets Olson to her feet, wrenching her arm before taking her over to her corner and tagging in Yoon Song! She enters the ring, immediately wrenching the other arm of Olson and working with Diaz to pull her in for a Double Shoulder Block! They’re not done however, with the two keeping a grasp on her arms in order to pull her back up! Olson takes them both by surprise, however, popping up and getting an arm around Song’s head! She swings around, kicking Diaz full on in the head en route to a Tornado DDT on Song!
Olson reaches up, looking for her corner as Song tries to recover! Lilith Meadows stands on the apron, reaching as far into the ring as she can to await the tag! Olson crawls over, just fingertips away from her partner, but Song is up and back on Olson! She pulls her in, wrapping her arms around Olson and picking her off the mat and right back down with a Deadlift German Suplex! She gets Olson up and throws her into the corner, throwing a Knife Edge Chop into her chest before laying into her with a set of strikes to the chest and midsection! She throws Olson out of the corner with a Biel, leaving her to crawl over and stand in the opposite corner for stability! She runs over to the corner, looking to attack, but Olson dodges, jumping up and dropping down behind Song to catch her with a Schoolboy Rollup Pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
Kick out by Song, who rolls to her knees! Olson takes advantage of this, rolling over off the pin to hit her with a Kick to the head! Song is stunned now, staggering back into the corner and leaving an opening for Olson to attack with a Body Splash! She pulls Song out of the corner, rushing over to the ropes before jumping to the second one and flying off with a Crossbody! She gets to her feet, waiting for Song to try to get to hers! Song gets to knee, only to be caught with a Shining Wizard from Olson! She goes for the pin now!
ONE…!
TWO…!
Kick out by Song! Olson looks over to see Meadows reach out for her, walking towards the corner! Song tries one last time to prevent the tag, but Olson kicks her way before tagging in Lilith Meadows! Meadows rushes into the ring, immediately catching an intervening Diaz over the head with a Discus Forearm! Song is up now, turning Meadows around so she can attack! Meadows immediately responds to this however, smacking Song upside the head with a Headbutt before hitting the ropes and attacking with a Chop Block! Song is sent to a knee now, leaving an opening for Meadows to catch her with a Kick to the side of the head that sends her to the mat in earnest! She hits the ropes landing a Running Senton on Song before going for the pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
Kick out by Song! Meadows is ready to finish things off now, waiting for Song to get to her feet! When she does, Meadows gets in position, looking for The Dreaming! The Implant DDT fails to connect however, with Song gaining control on the small Faerie in midair and throwing her over the top rope and to the concrete floor at ringside! Just then Saraia Diaz hops back onto the apron, looking for the tag! Song gives it to her, before standing by the ropes! Diaz hits the ropes on the opposite of the ring before reuniting with Song who sits on the ropes and leaves them open so that Diaz can land a Suicide Dive on Meadows! She throws Meadows back into the ring and goes for the pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
THRE-

WINNERS: THE LAST OF THE VALKYRIES (VIA PINFALL)
CHAMPIONSHIPS RETAINED
The scene comes up backstage at Fusion, and there you can see Chris Matthews preparing for his match against Zachary Porter. Chris saw Zach's performance, and it was nothing sort of incredible. Chris knows that Zach is going to put up a fight, but Chris also knows that he's ready also.
Chris is wearing his ring gear. Chris has his eyes set on winning against Porter, who has done amazing so far.
Chris Matthews: "Zach, I have to say that it's an honor to fight you. I want everything to go smoothly, but that may not be possible as there could be NFW superstars in the arena. But I'm sure you already know that considering they want our heads on a platter. But you better believe that I'm going to stand my ground against them, and I won't back down."
"Until that time, I'm going to be bringing a hard-hitting fight against you and prove that I'm better. I have never been the type of man to back down, and you better believe that it won't be happening anytime soon."
He grabs his black jacket and puts it on. He aligns it on his body to keep it comfortable. He looks back at the camera and gives off a slight little smirk.
Chris Matthews: "A warrior never back down and tonight I'm going to prove that. If somehow any NFW superstars attack us during our match, you better believe that I'm going to be standing there with you to fight them off. That's a promise I'm making right now."
He balled his hand into a fist and put it against his heart, and nodded.
Chris Matthews: "And a warrior like me never breaks a promise."
He lowered his hand and continued.
Chris Matthews: "But don't take my kindness for weakness because I'm far from it. I'm the type of man that will break you down and hurt you. So tonight, be ready. If you're not, then I'm going to hurt you and make you know your place around me. See you out there, Zach."
He smiles as he walks away as the scene fades to the next match.
Match #2: Melody Slayton vs Kyle Valentine
Alex Lawson: The following contest…is scheduled for one fall!
Crowd: ONE FALL!
Alex Lawson: Introducing first…from Cameron, North Carolina…weighing in at 238 lbs…Kyle! Valentine!

Sean Brady: Melody Slayton making her Zion Wrestling in-ring debut here tonight! A 17-year old prodigy of the sport! She’s a little on the young side but she’s here to prove that she can GO! Let’s she what she’s got!
Slayton and Valentine make their way to the center of the ring, with the latter of the two inviting the rookie in for a Test of Strength! Slayton agrees, locking her right hand into Valentines! This turns out to be a trick however, with Valentine twisting her wrist immediately after she goes in for the grapple! Slayton struggles for a moment with the initial sting of the twist, but quickly reorients herself, pulling Valentine in and throwing him to the mat with an Arm Drag! Valentine scrambles back to his feet immediately engaging Slayton with a Collar-and-Elbow Tie Up! Valentine is able to overpower his smaller opponent from that offset, pushing her over to the ropes and holding her there to keep the pressure on her! The referee takes exception to this beginning with his five count! It isn’t until the four count that Valentine transitions, going for an Irish Whip to Slayton! She reverses it however, sending Valentine across the ring with an Irish Whip of her own! Valentine hits the ropes, returning straight to a Dropkick by Slayton! Valentine falls to the mat, rolling back up to his feet and backing into the corner!
Slayton sees an opening, running over to Valentine’s corner and laying into him with a Knife Edge Chop! She goes for the Irish Whip to Valentine, hoping to send him to the opposite corner! But he reverses, sending Slayton over the corner instead! Valentine runs after Slayton, hoping to mow her down in the corner! But she’s able to escape danger, using the ropes to boost herself over Valentine’s head and going for the ropes, hitting the ropes as he turns around! Slayton returns to him, catching him with a European Uppercut that sends him falling out of the ring through the middle rope! Slayton looks down at the fallen Valentine at ringside, deciding to call her shot! She hits the ropes, launching through the middle rope as Valentine gets to his feet to hit him with a Suicide Dive! Valentine hits the concrete floor outside of the ring, with Slayton popping back up to her feet, getting fired up along with the crowd! She gets Valentine back to his feet, before throwing him back into the ring! Slayton waits for Valentine to make it back to his feet, before jumping up onto his shoulders from behind, looking for the Sonic Rainboom! Valentine reverses the Poisonrana however, instead getting a hold on Slayton’s legs and taking her down with an Inverted Alabama Slam! He goes for the pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
Kick out by Slayton! Valentine gets her to her feet, pulling her in for a huge Lariat that flattens her to the mat! He keeps a hold on the arm, pulling her back up and hitting her with a second Lariat! He pulls her back up once more, before hitting her upside the head with a Spinning Backfist! She falls back into the corner, giving Valentine an opening to hit her with a Yakuza Kick! He immediately capitalizes, slamming her to the mat with a Belly-To-Belly Suplex out of the corner! He takes to the top rope now, raising his hands over his head before coming down on Slayton with an Elbow Drop! Valentine with the pin!

Kick out by Slayton! Valentine looks to finish now, getting Slayton to her feet and in a Wheelbarrow position, looking for the Requiem!

Valentine gets to his feet, running into another Clothesline from Slayton! Valentine gets to his feet once again, this time being caught with a Running DDT! Valentine bounces off the mat, landing in a seated position as Slayton hits the ropes! She returns, hitting Valentine with THIS MAGIC MOMENT!! V TRIGGER CONNECTS!!

Alex Lawson: The winner of this match…Melody! Slayton!
Sean Brady: A big debut win tonight for the young Melody Slayton! With a performance like that, she’s bound to do one of the best in the Viral Division!
Slayton celebrates as we fade out!
WINNER: MELODY SLAYTON (VIA PINFALL)
Eli Buchanan and his wife, Charlotte O'Neal walk into the arena through the backdoor. The two of them are arguing as they walk along in hushed tones.
Charlotte: I'm just saying, maybe you shouldn't be wrestling tonight. You've clearly not in the best frame of mind as of late, I'm getting concerned about you.
Eli waves her off.
Eli: I told you already, I'm fine.
Charlotte: So that little display you made on Twitter a few nights ago, that was being fine? You've been sob...
She notices that camera on them and subtly points it on to her husband. Eli finally sees it and lets out a sigh.
Eli: (to Charlotte) We'll finish this later, I promise, and you've got a few things to fess up about as well.
Charlotte nods and turns away for a moment as Eli addresses the camera.
Eli: Yeah, what do you want?
Cameraman: Ummm, I just wanted to get comments from you about what happened Madness Rumble.
Eli: At the Madness Rumble? I went out there and I proved to the world that I'm back and just as good as ever. And yeah, I didn't win the match, but you might as well call me Tony Stark because of was the Iron Man of the Rumble, lasting longer than any other competitor in there. As for what happened at the end with Penelope and Rebekah, or Leytrix, or whatever that gremlin wants to call herself...
He looks over at his wife, but she refuses to meet his eyes.
Eli: I'll worry about that later. For tonight though, it's my first match since the Rumble and I need to go out there and make a statement to the world that it's time I start putting the whole roster on notice that I'm playing for keeps now and want championship gold back around my waist once again. That starts with you Anastasia. I know you're a hell of a competitor and it's clear to anyone with two good eyes that you've got a hell of a chip on your shoulder. Well so do I. So why don't you come down to the ring and try and knock mine off. Be warned though, if you miss, I'll make you pay for it with knee strikes and suplexes. I am not someone you want to mess around with, not right now, not anymore.
He walks off without another word. Charlotte watches him go, before hurrying after him.
Charlotte: Eli, wait, we need to talk about this more.
Before the camera pans away, it lingers on the wall which Eli and Charlotte were standing in front of just a minute earlier. Their shadows are still on the wall. They appear to look at one another for a minute before one follows after Eli and Charlotte, while the other goes off in the opposite direction.
Cameraman: What the... I think I'm seeing things.
Match #3: Diamond Steele vs Zoey Styles
Alex Lawson: The following contest…is scheduled for one fall!
Crowd: ONE FALL!
Alex Lawson: Introducing first…from London, England…weighing in at 110 lbs…”The Siren”...Diamond! Steele!
And her opponent…from Chicago, Illinois…weighing in at 136 lbs…Zoey! Styles!
Sean Brady: Zoey Styles may be looking to get herself back on track following a loss to Rebekah Stevenson on last week’s Fusion. But will she be able to do it against someone as vicious as Diamond Steele? I guess we’ll have to see!
The bell rings and these two competitors approach one another in the center of the ring! Styles goes in, looking for a Collar-And-Elbow Tie Up! But Steele gets out of the way, attacking Styles from behind with a Kick to the calf! Styles is sent down to a knee as Steele relishes in the damage she caused!

She immediately takes advantage, getting Styles back up to a seated position before getting her into a Rear Chinlock! Styles struggles now, looking for a route of escape! She eventually decides to bring herself straight up, looking for a Reverse Jawbreaker to instantly escape the hold! But Steele is again having none of it, immediately slamming Styles back down to the mat before delivering a stomp to her chest! She takes a lap around the ring before taking a condescending bow to the fans in the arena! They all react negatively, showering her with boos as she goes to pick up Styles! She gets her in position, looking for a Brainbuster! But just as she goes to lift, Styles slips her grip, landing behind her and pushing her into the ropes! Steele returns right into a SUPER WOMAN PUNCH FROM STYLES!! She goes for the pin!
ONE…!

THRE-
Kick out by Steele! Styles isn’t finished however, waiting for her to get to her feet before running the ropes, looking for Seeing Stars! The elbow fails to connect however, with Steele ducking underneath it before throwing Styles to the mat with a German Suplex! Styles tries to make it to her feet, only leaving her open for Steele to hit her with FLOATOVER DDT!! Steele sits beside a prone Styles, laughing at her misery, before getting her locked into SHIPWRECKED!! THE SEATED FUJIWARA ARMBAR IS IN!! Styles is in trouble now, with the pain being too much for her! She makes an unsuccessful reach for the ropes before tapping out!
Alex Lawson: The winner of this match…via submission…Diamond! Steele!
Sean Brady: Diamond Steele with a pretty commanding win over Zoey Styles! It’ll be interesting to see what the defector from that scumbag company NFW does next, seeing as she’s on the greener side of the grass!
Steele stands over Styles, having her hand raised by the official as we fade out!
WINNER: DIAMOND STEELE (VIA SUBMISSION)
A camera fixes on Jordan Majors sitting backward on a chair. She leans against the top of the chair and looks into the camera.
Jordan Majors: Tonight, at Fusion: Arrival V, I defend the Viral Championship for the first time against someone that's not on the Zion roster. And if... and when I retain it against Jenn Drew, I will take it on the road for the first time this weekened against Eden Sterling at XIX Wrestling's XIX vs. The World. I WILL make this company proud tonight against Jenn. And then I'll do the same in London on Sunday. And then, next weekend, I will represent this company against NFW at Invasion and show the world exactly what it means to be a champion for our company.
Jordan holds the Viral Championship in her hands in view of the camera and then places it back down in front of her.
Jordan Majors: I know I've been quiet recently. I've let my performance in the ring do my talking. This last month, it hasn't been easy for me. I left one company I'd been at for the last few years. I made an appearance for a new one and lost in the main event. I've had a lot of time to think about this business and what it means to me.
Jordan nods to herself and then looks into the camera.
Jordan Majors: Wrestling is my life. When I was a kid I grew up in a single parent household with a mother that cared far more about whatever drug she could put in her system than she ever did about me. But that experience made me stronger. It molded me into something else. You watch one match of mine in this company and you will recognize that Jordan Majors is a survivor. I've been through a lot of bad, hard shit in my life. Who hasn't though, right? You either learn from those bad times and you grow, or you fold right then and there and you define yourself as someone who isn't meant for anything. Well I learned a long time ago that I had to go all-in on myself.
Jordan stands out of the chair and pulls the title with her as the camera follows her.
Jordan Majors: That's exactly what I did when I signed with this company. I saw an opportunity and I pushed the chips into the middle. I saw a new beginning for my career and I wasn't about to let that slip. I've lost two matches in Zion. Two. The rest? Everyone in this company and outside of it has seen the will of a fighter and a survivor. I will fight anyone and I will give every match every single ounce of what I have. That's why I was the first Viral Champion and that's why I'm still the Viral Champion and that's why, this time next week, I plan on still being YOUR Viral Champion. Up and down this roster people have called their shots when I told them to. They've stepped up and they've walked away admitting that I was the real deal. They saw me as easy prey, fodder on their journey to gold. And they failed. Now, other companies will find out exactly why I'm one of the longest tenured champions in this company's history. They will learn that this is not a fluke.
Jordan sits back down as the camera pans in closer.
Jordan Majors: People look at me and they laugh. They believe this title reign is some kind of a fraud. Like I'm out here just picking off the bottom of the roster. Nobodies. I've defeated some of the biggest rising stars this company has to offer. Some of the same people that will prove Zion is the superior brand at Invasion. You can think whatever you want about the Viral Championship. But climb into the ring with me. I'll change your mind.
Jordan smirks and holds the title up.
Jordan Majors: Everyone is trying to decide when my time will end. Tonight? Sunday? Nah. I'm not done yet. The world hasn't aknowledged one of the best titles in wrestling yet. But when I AM done. They won't be able to deny it.
Jordan winks and then blows a kiss and keeps her smile as the video fades out.
Match #4: Eli Buchanan vs Anastasia
Alex Lawson: The following contest…is scheduled for one fall!
Crowd: ONE FALL!
Alex Lawson: Introducing first…from Athens, Greece…weighing in at 114 lbs…Anastasia!
And her opponent…being accompanied to the ring by Charlotte O’Neal…from The Hotel California…weighing in at 235 lbs…”Tiger Red”...Eli! Buchanan!
Sean Brady: Ever since two weeks ago at Madness a change seems to have sparked in Eli Buchanan! He doesn’t seem to be the same since then! Let’s see if that shows here tonight!
The bell rings and these two start off by locking up! Buchanan gets the strength advantage early on, backing Anastasia into the corner! The official steps in now, trying to get some distance between the two! Buchanan starts to back up, but Anastasia decides to go dirty, throwing a slap across his face as he tries to back away! Buchanan immediately takes exception to the cheap shot, with the referee having to drive an even further wedge between them! Buchanan and Anastasia circle the ring around each other once again, looking to lock up! Buchanan goes in to grapple, but Anastasia gets out of dodge, ducking underneath his attempts and catching him with a Kick to the thigh as she gets behind him. The shot sends him to a knee, allowing Anastasia to run the ropes and nail him with a Soccer Kick! She goes for the pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
Kick out by Buchanan! Anastasia drags him back up to his feet, licking the palm of her hand before going for a slap to Buchanan! Buchanan catches the right hand, however, telling Anastasia off a bit before pulling her in and slamming her to the mat with an Exploder Suplex! He waits for Anastasia to make it to her feet, before running over and hitting her with a Lariat! Anastasia pops back up to her feet, being caught with another Lariat by Buchanan! She gets up again, this time trying to get the jump on Buchanan with a Lariat of her own! Buchanan ducks underneath, getting his arms around her waists and dropping her to the mat with a German Suplex! He bridges for the pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
Kick out by Anastasia! Buchanan tries to pull her back to her feet, but before he can go for anything, Anastasia pushes him away! She winds up a slap, only for it to be caught by Buchanan again! With no other methods in her back pocket, Anastasia decides to take a step further, spitting straight into Buchanan’s face! From there, Buchanan turns beet red, before pulling Anastasia in and throwing her to the mat with a Belly-To-Belly Suplex! He approaches the prone Anastasia near the ropes, sending stomp after stomp to her before the referee pulls him away! Buchanan backs off, seemingly getting angrier as he does! Anastasia gets to her feet again, with Buchanan running up and hitting THUNDERSTRUCK!! KINSHASA CONNECTS!! But Buchanan isn’t done, waiting for Anastasia to get up again before hitting a SECOND THUNDERSTRUCK!! He waits even longer for Anastasia to try getting up again, his face turning redder and redder as he does! He runs across the ring again, hitting Anastasia with a THIRD THUNDERSTRUCK!! Before he can reach Anastasia again, the referee puts a stop to things, checking on a now unconscious Anastasia before calling for the match's end!
Alex Lawson: Your winner…via referee’s stoppage…Eli! Buchanan!
Sean Brady: Guys…I have no idea what just happened with Eli Buchanan there! The guy just went out of control!
Buchanan stands over Anastasia, his face still red as Charlotte O’Neal takes to the ring to join him. She talks to him face-to-face, getting Buchanan to calm down as we fade to a commercial break!
WINNER: ELI BUCHANAN (VIA STOPPAGE)
