We fade into a packed Wells Fargo Center! The Philadelphia crowd is buzzing as the small packed arena is ready for a show! We cut over to the commentary table, where we see Eddie Red Apples and Amber Westgate!
Eddie Red Apples: With just a little over a week away from the Show of Shows, we’re onto our final weekly show! And how fitting is it that we’re sending things off with the most exciting two hours of wrestling on the internet?! Welcome everyone…to Friday Night Fusion! I’m Eddie Red Apples, joined as always by Amber Westgate!
Amber Westgate: It is exciting to be here for our final Fusion before Destiny, just mere miles away from the venue it’ll be taking place in itself! I can’t wait for a week from now, but for now we’re here to sign off on the Blue Brand in a big way! Let’s begin!
The show opens with a recap of last week’s Main Event match between Aubrianna Powers & Mai Blackman for the Viral Championship….
Kick out by Powers, but she’s not out of the woods yet, with Blackman rolling through and looking for a German Suplex! Powers lands on her feet once again however, waiting for Blackman to quickly attempt to regain a vertical bae before laying her out with the MVK!! MOST VALUABLE KICK!! REVERSE ROUNDHOUSE GETS BLACKMAN!! Powers is on the cusp of a title win here, approaching the ropes and looking for Simply The Best Moonsault! But just then, she comes face to face with The Second City Riot Squad! Powers looks as though she’s seen a ghost as Leah Aguero, Jed Coffey, and Layla Diaz start to fill the bottom of the entry ramp! She decides to ditch her efforts for the Moonsault, knowing that if she takes flight and leaves SCRS out of her view, something is bound to go wrong! This seems to be the case anyway, as Blackman rushes up and gets hold of Powers, cinching in BLACKMAN’S BOUNTY!! TRIANGLE CHOKEHOLD IS IN!! Powers tries desperately to escape, but Blackman’s got the hold on tight in the center of the ring! She decides to live to fight another day, and taps out!
Alex Lawson: The winner of this match, via submission…and STILL Zion Wrestling VIRAL! CHAMPION!...MAI! BLACKMAN!
Eddie Red Apples: Well this certainly wasn’t the way that Aubrianna Powers was wanting this to go!
Amber Westgate: Well when you mess with a group that goes by the credo of “By any means necessary”, losing out on a title is probably the tamest thing they could do! Aubrey, and the rest of Trinity for that matter, should just be lucky that they don’t do worse!
Blackman celebrates with her title as Aguero, Diaz, and Coffey all jump onto the ring apron, each brandishing a steel chair! Blackman sees the scene, reads the room, and most importantly sees the look on SCRS’ faces, deciding to leave Powers for dead and let the Trios Champions do their thing!
Eddie Red Apples: I guess this is what “worse” is.
Amber Westgate: Verily.
The three loom over Powers, looking to avenge the assault they suffered on Monday night! But just then, the rest of Trinity show up, looking to take the Trios Champions on! Valentina Skye hops onto the apron, immediately getting whacked over the head with a chair for her troubles! Skye tumbles to the ground as all hell breaks loose, with the two factions beginning to fight! SCRS gains the upper hand, with Diaz landing the CT-Knee on Brooke Cartwright and Jed Coffey landing Schmucks Up, Schmucks Down on Aubrianna Powers! Leah Aguero saves the worst for Delilah Hill, sending her to her hands and knees before hitting The Endgame! The Punt Kick connects flush, but The War Queen doesn’t think it’s enough! She drags Hill over to the ring post, draping her legs against the steel as she leaves the ring, she lines up her shot, placing Hill’s knee directly next to the steel post before loading on it with a steel chair! Hill is writhing in agony now as Aguero looks on in delight!
Eddie Red Apples: OUCH! Sickeningly sadistic move by the War Queen!
Amber Westgate: A smart one too! Taking Delilah Hill out of the equation makes things three-on-three! Aguero’s evening the odds here!
The Trios Champions stand amongst the wreckage, holding their titles high with their vengeance fulfilled….
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The video dissolves to a shot of Trinity standing in front of the camera looking down at it as the camera was positioned lower to the ladies, giving the indication that the cameraman is on bended knee before these women.
The ladies were dressed to kill, as always. Brooke Cartwright, who’s standing in the center, is sporting a Burgundy sweetheart short-sleeved, neck-fitted top and a charcoal gray long skirt. Aubrianna Powers, who’s standing at Brooke’s right, is wearing a short black sleeveless cocktail dress, while Valentina, who’s standing at Brooke’s left, is wearing a Denim Jean one piece set. Conspicuous by her absence is Delilah Hill, who’s currently not with her sisters.
Trinity always brings the attraction when they’re in front of the camera with their flawless looks and their Alpha Female aura. But the mood of the ladies right now is far from being attractive, which is evidenced by the furious and intense demeanors the ladies sport as the bore their eyes down on the camera.
Brooke Cartwright: I bet you’re happy. You must be having a blast, still having one even. It’s one thing to simply ignore our diatribes of our superiority and your insignificance, pretending that it doesn’t apply to you when we damn well know that you all own every inch of the latter that we branded you on, much less take likely the plans we made for ourselves to better Fusion with OUR influence. We get it. But to actually go out there and disrupt our plans? We will ABSOLUTELY not stand!
Brooke takes a moment to calm herself down, for she is feeling the rage within beginning to rise. Meanwhile, Aubrianna & Valentina continued to stare down the camera with stone-faced demeanors. Before long, “The Leading Lady Of Zion” gets back her faculties and brings her attention back to the camera.
Brooke Cartwright: Second City Riot Squad! You FUCKING insects! No, that would be an insult to even their kind! But that doesn’t change the way you’ve been carrying yourselves since you came to Zion Wrestling…both uninvited and unwanted! But what you did last week to us…..you may want to believe that you’re untouchable after the damage you’ve done to whatever you set your mind to. But what you don’t realize, you detestable ruffian scum, is the consequences that will make ANY of your “invincibility” scorched Earth. Because of you, our Queen Delilah is not here with us right now because she’s currently mending her injury. And our MVP Queen Aubrianna was DENIED the opportunity to seize the Viral Championship from Mai Blackman, which you DAMN WELL KNEW she was going to get!
I can’t believe I’m actually going to say this but we actually applaud you three. There’s a little part in each of us that actually believes in that sewerage you speak night in and night out about how badass you are. The only reason why we didn’t go all in on your bullshit is based on the majority of it being stupidity because despite all the “carnage” you’ve done to us last week….we’re STILL here. And now…we’re fucking PISSED off! And we can be SERIOUSLY MALICIOUS bitches when we’re pissed off!
Valentina shakes her head, with a look of disgust on her face.
Valentina Skye: I cannot believe this nonsense. Trinity is supposed to be the team of teams out there and we are sick and tired of being treated like an “AFTERTHOUGHT”! How many times do we have to be pushed aside right when we lose? WE SHOULD BE THE TRIOS CHAMPIONS, WE SHOULD BE HOLDING THE GOLD, BUT NO!
Valentina holds her breath in, collecting her thoughts before she continues to speak.
Valentina Skye: Seriously, do we have to go to OTHER PROMOTIONS to get the respect WE need?! You would love that would you? Watch us walk away while rejoicing about how you get a wee bit of justification that we’re incapable of backing up our claims. Well newsflash! We’re not going anywhere! Us Queens NEVER back down and NEVER walk away and NEVER…
Aubrianna is clearly about to explode, evidenced by her face contorted in rage.
Aubrianna Powers: I had Mai beaten! She was dead to rights! I should be a champion right now but I’m not because I was screwed over! My Most Valuable Fans are still rioting in the streets over this injustice!
The MVP shakes her head as Brooke & Valentina continues to aim their evil stares at the camera.
Aubrianna Powers: But we will not take this lying down. Trinity will have the last laugh and I will…ALL OF US WILL…have gold. We will have championship gold, we will dominate this place, and all of you who ever stood against us can just learn to love it, bitches!
Brooke Cartwright: All of Zion has thrown the gauntlet down at us. And we’re going to do a whole lot more than step over it, we’re going to rampage all over it! All Four of us strong in power and making plenty of examples along the way, soiling the soles of our boots of the scum that are beneath us; Second City Riot Squad, Las Olividadas tonight, and everyone up and down the damn roster. And then you will have NO CHOICE but to acknowledge how strong and superior we are, acknowledge that you will NEVER stop us…and MOST of all…
Then on cue, Brooke, Valentina, & Aubrianna point their fingers down on the floor while keeping their eyes down on the camera, minus the defiant smirks they usually have. They want everyone to know how serious they are.
Brooke Cartwright: …acknowledge your damn place!
Then, while the ladies continue to stand in position, the ladies simultaneously lift their other hands to snap their fingers, forcing the camera to go to black.
Match #1: Yukiko Kusanagi vs Zara Ivory
Alex Lawson: The following contest…is scheduled for one fall!
Crowd: ONE FALL!
Alex Lawson: Introducing first…from Osaka, Japan…weighing in at 125 lbs…she is the Slaughterhouse Wrestling AMERICAN! HORROR! CHAMPION…Yukiko! Kusanagi!
And her opponent…being accompanied to the ring by Marley Divata…from Richmond, Virginia…weighing in at 131 lbs…Zara! Ivory!
Eddie Red Apples: Zara Ivory looking to impress tonight against Yukiko Kusanagi!
Amber Westgate: Ivory’s been on the downslope recently, but a win over the undefeated Kusanagi will do wonders for her momentum!
Ivory and Kusanagi start things off slow here, with the two going for a Collar-and-Elbow Tie Up! The bigger Ivory has the size advantage going for her early on, pushing Kusanagi back into the corner as the referee gives her until a count of five to relieve the hold! They eventually separate, before the two go back to shuffle the canvas around each other! Kusanagi shows a look of realization now, deciding to take a different approach as she raises her hand to Ivory to initiate a Test of Strength! Ivory takes her by the right hand, tentatively raising her left as Kusanagi does the same! This, of course, ends up being a trick, with Kusanagi rolling forward with Ivory’s right arm in tow and wrapping her with a Wristlock! Ivory is in a bit of pain here as the initial sting of the arm wrench sets in! But Ivory isn’t intent on being a pushover, getting a frontflip to unwrench her arm before getting a Wristlock of her own! She transitions seamlessly into a Side Headlock, seeming to have the Osaka Devil in trouble! But Kusanagi works towards an escape, pushing Ivory towards the ropes, bouncing her off and across the ring! Kusanagi looks to catch Ivory off guard going for a Drop Down upon her return! Ivory doesn’t go for it however, instead leaping over Kusanagi and immediately going for Handspring off the ropes! She looks to catch Kusanagi off guard with a Back Elbow off of this, but her opponent sees this coming, with Ivory eating a German Suplex as a result! Ivory lands on the bridge of her neck! She continues to clutch it as Kusanagi goes for the pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
Kick out by Ivory! Kusanagi stays on her, however, getting a now seated Ivory up for a Rear Chinlock! She digs into her a bit, hitting her with a few Elbow Strikes to the shoulder and the side of her neck in order to exacerbate the obvious pain there! Ivory doesn’t take this for long however, eventually shifting her weight to the side and getting a few Elbow Strikes into Kusanagi’s midsection to get her to relieve the hold! Kusanagi eventually backs down, hunched over as Ivory rushes towards her and grabs her by the head! She jumps up to the top rope with Kusanagi in tow, spiking her headfirst into the mat with a Tornado DDT! Kusanagi almost stands on her head off the hard knock, before falling to the mat backfirst behind Ivory! She takes advantage of this however, rolling back and over Kusanagi before smoothly transitioning into position and nailing Kusanagi with a Suplex! She rolls through it, setting up and hitting Kusanagi with another Suplex! She rolls through again, getting Kusanagi back up and hitting her with a third suplex for the Three Amigos!
Ivory takes a bold approach afterwards however, trying her luck by rolling through and going for a fourth Suplex! This backfires on her however, with Kusanagi planting her feet to the mat and refusing to budge for yet another Suplex! She reverses the attempt, taking Ivory down with a Scoop Slam! Kusanagi gets a bit flashy now, performing a handstand front flip next to the prone body of Ivory! She uses one of her hands to nip Ivory up into a seated position in the process, leaving her wide open for a Bicycle Knee Strike from Kusanagi! She attempts to follow up, running over for a Shooting Star Press! But Ivory gets the knees up, plunging them straight into Kusanagi’s chest! She recoils, backing into the corner and immediately being charged with a Lariat by Ivory! She looks to capitalize, going for an Irish Whip to the opposite corner, but Kusanagi reverses with an Irish Whip of her own! Ivory finds a way out however, climbing to the top rope and getting a backflip, sailing over Kusanagi’s head! She hits the ropes now, with Kusanagi in hot pursuit, going for Lariat as she rebounds! Ivory ducks underneath this however, making her way to the opposite side of the ring as she jumps to the middle rope and lands a Springboard Moonsault! She waits for Kusanagi to make it to her feet, before running over for a Hurricanrana! But Kusanagi is able to flip out of it and land on her feet! This hardly presses Ivory, who without missing a beat, lands a Side Kick to Kusanagi’s midsection that hunches her over! She hits the ropes now, landing a Curbstomp on Kusanagi! Ivory with the pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
Kick out by Kusanagi! Ivory looks for the finish line now, waiting once more for Kusanagi to make it to her feet before looking for Team of Misfits! Kusanagi blocks off the Spear attempt however, catching Ivory with a Drop Toe Hold that sends Ivory’s head draping onto the middle rope! Kusanagi sees an opportunity now, hopping over the top rope and onto the apron before connecting with a DRAPING BIG BOOT!! Ivory falls back into the ring, with Kusanagi wasting no time in going for a pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
THRE-
Kick out by Ivory! Kusanagi shows a bit of frustration now at her resilient opponent, getting her to her feet before looking for Kuro Gishiki! Ivory reverses out of this however, shifting her weight back midlift and landing on her feet behind Kusanagi before she can spike her head to the mat! Ivory takes immediate advantage of her newfound freedom, hitting the ropes and clashing with Kusanagi with the TEAM OF MISFITS!! SPEAR TURNS HER INSIDE OUT!! Ivory with the pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
THREE-
Kick out by Kusanagi! Ivory remains determined, taking to the top rope in hopes of finishing this one! She launches off, looking for Violence Causes Silence! But she misses the Frog Splash, with Kusanagi just rolling out of reach! She plants face first to the canvas with Kusanagi rolling right back onto her for 50 SHADES OF PAIN!! INVERTED STF IS IN!! Ivory is trapped in the center of the ring! Still in a daze from the missed high flying maneuver and with no apparent escape route in sight, Ivory decides to cut her losses and tap out!
Alex Lawson: The winner of this match…Yukiko! Kusanagi!
Eddie Red Apples: What a match! And what a win by Yukiko Kusanagi!
Amber Westgate: Take nothing away from Zara Ivory, however! That girl gave Kusanagi a run for her money! But in the end, The Osaka Devil once again stands tall!
WINNER: YUKIKO KUSANAGI (VIA SUBMISSION)
“BxMxC” plays as Yukiko celebrates to the booing crowd. She calls for a microphone then and walks right over to where Zara Ivory lays on the mat. Arrogant as all hell, Yukiko plops down right across Zara’s back, using her like a seat as she taps the microphone with her hand to make sure it’s on.
Yukiko Kusanagi: Tanoshikatta, Zara-chan? Watashi wa yatta koto o shitte imasu.
Did you enjoy that, Zara-chan? I know I did.
Yukiko reaches down and pets Zara’s green hair, almost creepily with an eerie smile on her lips before she continues.
Yukiko Kusanagi: Shikashi, watashi wa koko de taikutsu shite imasu. Let me say in English: I…am getting…BORED!
She shouts the last word as she pushes up to her feet and nudges Zara with her boot to usher her out of the ring. Then, Yukiko continues, leaning against the ropes, panting into the mic.
Yukiko Kusanagi: I came here…because I wanted a fight. I came here to Zion because there’s a part of me that has a little bit of a deathwish.
She motions with her thumb and forefinger to indicate “just a little.”
Yukiko Kusanagi: I want to see how long I have left. I want to see how much further I can go. After all…
She moves to her designated corner for when the match was going on and picks up the championship belt she carries with her. It’s the Slaughterhouse Wrestling American Horror Championship. Yukiko holds it up for the crowd to see.
Yukiko Kusanagi: I have carried this title…I have defended it…I have bled for it…I have been through hell and back to keep it within my possession. Slaughterhouse sleeps…but the American Horror from Osaka still reigns. The Osaka Devil…still…SOARS!!!
Despite the boos, the crowd clearly starts feeling Yukiko’s passion and conviction as she lowers the title on her shoulder and turns towards the stage.
Yukiko Kusanagi: And she wants blood…she wants violence. I want blood. I...want…VIOLENCE!!!! As it stands, I know of one back there…
She points with her belt hand.
Yukiko Kusanagi: Who owes me a pint…or two…
An eerie grin slowly spreads across her lips again as she hangs the belt on the top rope and holds onto it.
Yukiko Kusanagi: …Cherry…Addams….
The crowd starts to get loud, excited even at the name and who’s calling it.
Yukiko Kusanagi: We have such…history…you and I… I told you we would find each other again. Now, here we are…and here is my offer. Find me…at Destiny…and let’s see if yours…is to be that Final Girl…
Yukiko holds the American Horror Championship up beside her, smiling as she drops the mic. “BxMxC” kicks on again, leaving the commentary team baffled and astonished as Yukiko exits the ring and hangs the title over her shoulder, down her back. The camera follows behind her as she makes her way back through the curtain.
Eddie Red Apples: Did…did Yukiko Kusanagi just put her ShW title on the line for a match in Zion?!
Amber Westgate: She did, Eddie! Oh shit, this is gonna be LIT!
The camera fades in to show The Mighty THORA sitting alone on a moving crate. Her head is low, hair hiding her face from the camera's view
THORA: Since day one...thee warrior Mai Blackman has beneath a Thorn in thy side. Is she envious of I? Envious that when I graced into FUSION and becameth a STAR overnight? I do no understand what I have done but Mai Blackman has messed with thee wrong God.
THORA shakes her head slowly before she looks up at the camera finally, moving her hair out of her face. A proud smile gracing her lips.
THORA: You dare call out against I, Mai? You wanteth a battle against The Lightning Thief?
A Smile laugh leaves the lips of the Asgarden
THORA: Well, alright. If that is what you want, Mai then I shall give in to you....but on oneth condition....I want thee battlefield to be under one rule...A LAST WARRIOR STANDING match. That is it. I want to endeth this rivalry betweeneth us once and for all. I will drag you to Hal if I must, Mai.
Her eyes stare daggers at the camera.
THORA: Aye, Hal is the only domain you will see after this battle....no gates of Valhalla will open for you, Thy shalt make sure of that.
THORA hops down from the moving crate.
THORA: Till then, thy shalt be waiting for your answer, Mai...see you sooneth.
With one last smile flashing at the camera, THORA leaves the view of the camera. Once out of the view of the camera, it fades to black. Ending the scene.
Danae and Kassandra happen to be walking backstage together discussing their strategy, as they pass random people as they go. Danae taps Kassandra on the shoulder when she sees The Crown hyping themselves up before their match off in the distance. Kassandra nods as they move over to them smiling as she tapped Ashlynn on the shoulder.
Ashlynn grinned as she turned toward them.
Ashlynn Cassidy: When we said we wanted mementos from Mayhem, we weren’t expecting a whole tag team. We haven’t done or said much, but we promise, there’s gonna be no ring rust by Destiny.
Kassandra laughed, then Danae stepped forward after looking at Ashlynn. Kassandra put her hand back on Danae, watching between the two of them. Danae continued to watch her, as Kassandra stepped between them.
”the Blue-Eyed Wolf” Kassandra: We’ve been fighting each week, and as we showed last week, there is still tenacity in us. Did you watch Mayhem on Monday, the House showed them. We just wanted to see our friends before they headed out to the ring. Don't worry about Danae, she won’t bite unless you provoke her.
Eden chuckles as she looks over at Danae and then at Kassandra.
Eden Sterling: We have been watching. Don't you worry about that. Just because we got thrown for a loop doesn't mean we haven't been paying attention. We have watched the goings on, both here in Fusion and back on Mayhem. And I'm sure you wondered why we chose to use that moment to make our grand return, hmm?
Kassandra looked at her as Danae looked right over at Eden. Danae then smiled softly, as she looked at the two of them. Danae then motions for Kassandra to move, Kassandra moved off to her side, still looking at both women.
”the Silver-Eyed Wolf” Danae: Use the moments before your match to make a return? Shocking. We just wanted to come over and wish you two luck, because for now let’s play nicely, then when it comes to Destiny, the four of us can rip each other apart.
Ashlynn Cassidy: That sounds fair to us. Play nice tonight, but come Destiny, the kid gloves come off.
Kassandra and Danae both nod extending their hands out. Looking at both eden and Ashlynn, figuring this would be their last moment before Destiny. The two teams shook hands and went their separate ways from each other. There are small metal pieces now in the hands of Danae and Kassandra. They’re silver bullets. Both had a name and a word engraved. “Kassandra” and “Good”, “Danae” and “Luck” As they headed to the ring, The Crown held up two fingers each. Two being the number of wins the pair had over The Wolves. Could they really be the pair’s kryptonite?
Match #2: The DataDames vs The Crown
Alex Lawson: The following tag team contest…is scheduled for one fall!
Crowd: ONE FALL!
Alex Lawson: Introducing first…at a combined weight of 297 lbs…the team of Ashlynn Cassidy and Eden Sterling…The! Crown!
And their opponents…from Coney Island, New York…at a combined weight of 299 lbs…the team of Austin St. Croix and Sayge Gonzalez…The! DataDames!
Eddie Red Apples: The Crown are here making their Fusion debut against a team that’s looking to prove themselves!
Amber Westgate: The Dames have been looking to get back on track since losing out on a chance at the previously vacant World Tag Team Championships last month at BattleBorn! What better way for the two to get back into the scene, than to take down two former tag champions here?!
Ashlynn Cassidy and Austin St. Croix start off for their respective teams! The two start off in Cassidy’s territory, with the two going at with a Collar-and-Elbow Tie Up! St. Croix is initially subdued by the more experienced grappler in Cassidy, who takes her to a kneeling position on the mat with a Top Wristlock! St. Croix struggles, with her troubles only escalating as Cassidy sweeps her kneeling leg, sending her backfirst to the mat! Cassidy has firm control on things by this point, wearing down a now prone St. Croix! However, St. Croix eventually wills through it, kipping up in order to regain a vertical base, before reversing with a Wristlock of her own! She quickly transitions, getting around Cassidy and wrapping her arms around her for a Wristlock! St. Croix has been able to turn things around on her, but Cassidy’s not willing to surrender control just yet, backing the New Yorker into her corner! This proves to be a mistake by Cassidy, who seems to be unaware of which corner she just backed herself into as Sayge Gonzalez makes the tag on St. Croix’s shoulder! The Powerhouse of the Dames enters the ring as St. Croix releases the Waistlock and pushes Cassidy into her waiting arms! Gonzalez has her in the Fireman’s Carry position, with St. Croix running the ropes and hitting a Jumping Neckbreaker to complete the G9! Gonzalez with the pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
Kick out by Cassidy! Gonzalez refuses to let up however, getting the former Zion Wrestling Champion into a Grounded Side Headlock to wear her down! Cassidy is in a bit of trouble now, with the distance between her and her partner seeming a lot more extensive! She eventually finds a way to escape, using her foot to push Gonzalez off of her, ending with her facedown on the mat! This gives Cassidy a chance to capitalize, getting on top of Gonzalez for a Grounded Front Facelock! Gonzalez has a bit of a struggle initially, but her raw power outmatches that of Cassidy’s, a fact she puts on full display as she’s able to slowly make her way back up to a vertical base! Cassidy tries to make the most of this, getting Gonzalez right in position for a Suplex as she gets back up! But she refuses to be lifted, eventually reversing Cassidy’s attempts by launching her across the ring using a Suplex Powerslam! Cassidy staggers back up to her feet, this time taking a Lariat for her trouble! She gets back up again, being taken down with another Lariat! Cassidy slowly makes her way back up to her feet, this time with Gonzalez hitting the ropes as she makes it up for Running Shoulder Tackle! Cassidy flies across the ring, trying her damnedest to crawl across to Eden Sterling! Gonzalez tries to cut her off, but by this point it’s too late, with Cassidy kicking her away and getting the tag to Sterling!
Sterling rushes into the ring, immediately clobbering Gonzalez with a Running Forearm! Gonzalez gets back to her feet, only to be taken off of them again with a Dropkick from Sterling! Gonzalez tries to get the jump on her again, going for a Clothesline! But Sterling ducks underneath it, getting Gonzalez in position before hitting her with a Pumphandle Slam! Sterling looks to finish her off, jumping off the ropes in hopes of hitting the Queen Cutter! But Gonzalez snatches her out of midair before she can complete the Springboard Cutter, catching her perfect position to hit her with a SIDE SLEEPER SUPLEX!! Gonzalez with the pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
Kick out by Sterling! Gonzalez gets her to her feet, dragging her to her corner and tagging in Austin St. Croix! The two get Sterling in position, looking for Glitch in the System! But Ashlynn Cassidy intervenes now, catching Sterling in a Wheelbarrow position as she soars through the air! She lifts Sterling up from there, launching her towards Gonzalez in order to execute a Hurricanrana! St. Croix goes for Cassidy, but she reverses with Kick to the knee that sends her kneeling! This leaves an opening for Sterling, who hits the ropes and catches her with INSTANT PERIL!! SHINING WIZARD CONNECTS!! Sterling with the pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
THREE!!
Alex Lawson: The winners of this match…The! Crown!
Eddie Red Apples: Excellent win by The Crown tonight!
Amber Westgate: Yeah, but will the former tag champs be able to pull off a repeat against the House of Wolves next Saturday? We’ll have to see!
Sterling and Cassidy celebrate as we fade out!
WINNERS: THE CROWN (VIA PINFALL)
The Zion logo flashes across the screen and the shot finds VIRAL Champion, Mai Blackman standing backstage somewhere with her title over her shoulder.
Mai Blackman: Thora! Thora, Thora, Thora. You wanna sit there and call me envious? Envious of what? I’m the one standing here with the fucking strap. What’s worse is you wanna say I’ve been a thorn in your side? Bitch, you have been a Royal Asgardian pain in my fucking ASS!
Fired up, practically pissed off and annoyed, Mai starts knife handing at the camera with her free hand.
Mai Blackman: You wanna send me to Hel? I’m no expert on your faith but one thing I know is that Hel ain’t for people like me. Shit, I’ll even give you credit, it ain’t for people like you. You should know that Hel is where the sickly and the cowards go. No, see believe me, if I’m going anywhere, I know damn sure, given my track record during and even before getting into a ring, there’s a seat reserved for me at your Valhalla’s table.
Mai pushes her hair out of her face and adjusts the VIRAL title on her shoulder.
Mai Blackman: As far as Destiny is concerned, though? I ain’t planning on walking through those gates just yet but I will gladly, I will GLADLY send your ass there in a body bag. Last Warrior Standing, huh? No rules. Just a straight up fight.
Mai nods, running her hand down her mouth with a thoughtful expression on her face.
Mai Blackman: Yeah, I can dig that. Just send a raven ahead of you so they know to make sure to get a pyre ready because if you’re coming for me? You’re coming for what’s mine?
She thumbs to herself, then slaps the face plate of her title before snapping her fingers right in the camera lens.
Mai Blackman: Challenge accepted. I’m gonna light your ass up like the Highway of Death, thunder cunt. OO-RAH!!!
Mai palms the camera and shoves it back, causing it to fall and go to static before the shot cuts away.
Match #3: Las Olvidadas vs Trinity
Tornado Trios Match
Alex Lawson: The following contest…is a Tornado Trios Match…scheduled for one fall!
Crowd: ONE FALL!
Alex Lawson: Introducing first…representing the Shieldmaidens…at a combined weight of 392 lbs…Las! Olvidadas!
And their opponents…representing Trinity…at a combined weight of 378 lbs…the team of Brooke Cartwright, Valentina Skye, and Aubrianna! Powers!
Eddie Red Apples: Trinity’s making their way down to the ring with the absence of Delilah Hill going up against Las Olvidadas tonight! It’ll be interesting to see how they perform with their newest acquisition in Aubrianna Powers!
Amber Westgate: Whether they like it or not, this is the way it’ll have to be for a while! The Second City Riot Squad’s nasty attack on Trinity last Friday Night has left Skye, Cartwright, and Powers as the the only members of this group left to fight in what can only be described as a gang war between the factions of Mayhem and Fusion!
The three teams start this match, as usual, with a three-on-three frenzy, with each member of each team squaring off with their own dance partner! Sangre and Valentina Skye go at it on one side of the ring, with the Shieldmaiden making quick work of her using a barrage of Kicks to the side of her midsection and thighs, before unloading with a Stiff Spinning Backfist! She hits the ropes now, looking for a Bicycle Pump Kick! But Skye ducks underneath it, leaving Sangre to be hit with a Superkick by an intercepting Aubrianna Powers! The kick makes Sangre turn around right into an attempted Hangman Backbreaker! Much to her shock however, the moment she turns around to position Sangre for the move, Taza cuts in, leathering her with a Bicycle Knee that causes her to release her grip! Sangre immediately takes advantage of her newfound freedom, taking Powers to the mat with a Discus Clothesline!
Meanwhile, Brooke Cartwright and Turbo are brawling outside of the ring! Turbo catches Cartwright with a right hand! Cartwright retorts, hitting Turbo with Forearm! Turbo clubs Cartwright again with a Punch! But Cartwright fires back, a lot more dominantly this time, hitting Turbo with a Forearm before laying into her with multiple kicks to the side of her midsection! The kicks start to pick up steam, with Cartwright landing a few Forearms into the combo to keep Turbo guessing on her next move! Cartwright eventually slips up however, looking to cap off her attack with a Legsweep that Turbo is able to hop over! She takes advantage of the high ground she has over Cartwright, hitting her with a Pump Kick that sends her to the floor at ringside in earnest! Turbo doesn’t look to be finished with Cartwright however, getting her to her feet and throwing her towards the barricade with an Irish Whip! Cartwright takes advantage of this however, jumping up to the top of the barrier instead of colliding with it straight on, launching off with a pseudo-Springboard Roundhouse Kick! While this innovation keeps Turbo on her toes, it does very little to take her off her feet, with the Shieldmaiden ducking underneath the swinging leg of Cartwright! She catches her in a Wheelbarrow position, looking to send her to the floor with a Suplex! But Cartwright reverses, pulling Turbo down midlift for a Victory Roll before immediately transitioning into a Double Foot Stomp! Exhaustion catches up with Cartwright a bit, and two end up laid out at ringside!
Meanwhile, in the ring, Powers and Skye are pushing back against Sangre and Taza! Sangre goes for a Bicycle Kick to Skye, but she manages to catch the leg, ducking underneath her attempt to escape with an Enziguri and getting her into a Wheelbarrow position! She lifts her up, right into a Double Knee Facebuster by Powers! The two quickly get to their feet as Taza tries to intervene, catching a Double Superkick for her troubles from the pair! Powers then instructs Skye to take to the top rope on the opposite side of the ring as she scales up the ropes herself! Turbo makes it to her feet by this point, attempting to get back into the ring to intervene! But Cartwright is up too, pulling Turbo away and leaving her unable to prevent a 450 Splash from Powers to Taza! Turbo fights back against Cartwright however, Shoulder Thrusting her into the barricade and re-entering the ring just in time to catch Valentina Skye out of top rope moonsault, hitting her with a Superkick as she’s upside down! Skye crashes the mat out cold before rolling out of the ring! Powers tries to intervene, going for a Spear to Turbo, but she LeapFrogs over it! Powers rushes right between Turbo’s legs, running straight into a Knee Strike from Sangre! The shot turns her around and hunches her over, leaving an opening for Taza to hit BOOM BOOM!! AX AND SMASH CONNECTS!! She goes for the pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
THRE-
NO! Cartwright returns, breaking up the pin! Sangre cuts in now, hitting the Leading Lady with CABACERA!! SOCCER KICK CONNECTS!! Turbo takes to the top rope now, looking to hit the Turbo Charger! With Skye and Powers out of commission, it looks as though this may be it.
But just then, the lights go out…nothing can be seen, however some struggles and thuds can be heard inside the ring. Everyone in the arena is left in awe and confusion.
When the lights come back up, all seven of the people in the ring, referee included, are laid out! Standing over them are…the IMMORTAL ATROCITIES!! Penelope, Mary Jane, and Eli Buchanan stand over a chaotic scene in the ring!
Eddie Red Apples: What the hell are the Immortal Atrocities doing here?!
Amber Westgate: Looks like they’ve had enough of being left out of the fun!
The three stand over the chaos, looking down at all six of the competitors of this match before the lights go down again! When the lights go back up, the three are gone, along with the official for the match!
Eddie Red Apples: Well happens now?!
Amber Westgate: I have no idea!
Everyone continues to be laid out as we fade to a commercial break.
WINNER: NO CONTEST
