As the opening video closes, the lights to OVO Hydro go out, the stage illuminating to the beat of the second half of the second verse!
We looked at the price tag, and it's one we can't afford
We were taught that progression means accumulating more…
Just then, the arena bursts to life, with lights spanning the entire arena as we cut to the commentary booth!
Eddie Red Apples: Coming to you live from a sold out OVO Hydro in Glasgow, Zion Wrestling brings you Friday Night Fusion! I’m Eddie Red Apples joined as always by my broadcast colleague, Amber Westgate!
Amber Westgate: We are just one week away from the horror show that should be Fusion’s next special, Bloodsport 2! Let’s see if the Blue Crew can get some blood boiling in each other before the event!
Friday Night Fusion kicks off with the World Tag Team Champions; Thotline Miami in the backstage area. Cindy is dressed in a very unique variant of her ring gear, covering up more of her body and resembling a light leather armour. She's gone the extra mile for Halloween week, but her partner Taylor is dressed very casually, even more so than normal.
Taylor Gibson: I can't tell what you're meant to be.
Cindy Collins: I'm a Witcher, duh.
Taylor Gibson: From uhhhh… the Netflix show?
Cindy Collins: Well, not really, but kinda, I guess?
Taylor stares at Cindy. It wouldn't be worth explaining it to her, about the only game she plays is Double Dragon.
Cindy Collins: At least I made the effort to dress up, plain Jane.
Taylor Gibson: I'm dressed as a psychopath. They look just like everyone else.
Cue an eye roll from Cindy.
Taylor Gibson: Why a Witcher, huh? I picked you as one to dress as something more… I don't know. Slutty.
Cindy scoffs, though Taylor definitely has a point.
Cindy Collins: Well, it makes sense doesn't it? Tonight I'm hunting a wicked, silver-eyed wolf. One which has been running around unchecked for too long.
Taylor Gibson: Oooh! Yeah! You totally look like you'd kick Danae's ass, Cindy!
Cindy Collins: That's exactly what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna beat her ass all over the ring. Danae thinks she's the big, bad wolf? Well I'm the one who's gonna huff and puff and blow the House of Wolves down!
Taylor grins and gives her partner a high five as the scene fades out.
The storm outside had just began to settle as Danae had been watching from a seat beside her home window. She turned to the camera she had set up sitting next to her looking into it laughing a bit, as the silver lightning cracked behind her.
“the Silver-Eyed Wolf” Danae: Tonight is a chance to prove I am something more than a tag team wrestler. I’ve shown before that without Kassandra with me I am more deadly. Last week Kassandra didn’t need me to put away that girl, Tonight I plan to prove the same thing. While the Queen and the Blue Wolf are in the main event. I am going to show ½ of the tag team champions what it means to be part of the house.
Danae stands up looking around her home, then sees the door appear. She tilts her head to the side, as she goes over and opens it, revealing the wolves locker room. She steps through pulling some tape from her home in the process. She begins to wrap her wrists. She sits down on a chair looking around.
“the Silver-Eyed Wolf” Danae: Tonight Cindy Collins, you are going to learn what your tag team partner knows already. Never back a wolf into a corner, as she might be the most terrifying thing you see. Don’t worry you won’t have to worry about my tag team partner as she will be with the Queen getting ready for their match.
She laughs as she picked up a jacket off the back of a chair. She turned and her eyes flashed silver then returned to their normal color. She then pulled her jacket on, and then smiled softly beginning to take a step.
“the Silver-Eyed Wolf” Danae: See you out there young one. Maybe after this we’ll prove worthy and finally get a shot at those tag titles.
She turned walking out of their locker room, the camera returns to ringside.
OPENING MATCH: DANAE VS CINDY COLLINS
Alex Lawson: The following contest…is scheduled for one fall!
Crowd: ONE FALL!
Alex Lawson: Introducing first…representing The Hive…from Las Vegas, Nevada…weighing in at 170 lbs…”The Silver-Eyed Wolf”...Danae!
And her opponent…representing Thotline Miami…from Miami, Florida…weighing in at 112 lbs…she is one half of the Zion Wrestling World Tag Team Champions…”The Vice City Vixen”...Cindy! Collins!
Eddie Red Apples: Cindy Collins looking to get Thotline Miami back in the winner’s seat against their aggressive new challengers in The House of Wolves after Taylor Gibson had a win stolen away from her last week by Kassandra!
Amber Westgate: And you gotta imagine the champ is just a little weary going into this match! After seeing what lows the Wolves are willing to go to last week, Collins has hopefully realized that she needs eyes in the back of her head when dealing with them!
Danae and Collins circle the ring around one another to start this match, eventually meeting up with a Collar-and-Elbow Tie Up! Collins gets the upper hand with a Wristlock to start off, looking to transition it straight into a Short-Arm Clothesline! But Danae ducks underneath, instead wrapping her arms around Collins’ waist for a Waistlock! She lifts for the Shoot Throw but Collins reverses with a Snapmare! Danae tries to rush Collins to regain momentum, only to be caught with an Arm Drag now! She capitalizes, wrenching in a Rear Chinlock on Danae off the move! She begins to extend the arm of Danae to wear her down now, before raining on her with a set of Hammer-and-Anvil Elbows to the chest! These hardly seem to phase The Silver-Eyed Wolf however, who twists out of position and clobbers Collins with a Strike to the midsection that sends her to her hands and knees! Danae follows up, nailing her with a Double Ax Handle right across the back of the neck, before jumping up for a Knee Drop and going for the pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
Kick out by Collins! Danae pulls her to her feet, looking for a Falcon Arrow! She goes down for the move, only for Collins to catch her by surprise with a Stundog Millionaire! Danae falls back into the ropes, with Collins sending her over and to the outside with a Lariat! Collins sees the opportunity to fly now, hitting the ropes before launching herself outside to Danae with a Suicide Dive! She throws Danae back into the ring, immediately coming face-to-face with Kassandra at ringside! The two are eventually broken up as Taylor Gibson takes to the top rope and nailing Kassandra with a Crossbody to take her out! Collins climbs to the apron, only to be caught with a Shoulder Block by a recovered Danae! She pulls Collins over the top rope, sending her to the mat with a Suplex before floating over for the pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
Kick out by Collins! Danae looks to finish this one off, waiting for Collins to make it to her feet so she can hit the Big Boot! But Collins catches her as she runs towards her with Superkick before collapsing to the mat! She crawls over to Danae, going for the cover!
ONE…!
TWO…!
Kick out by Danae! Collins gets her to her feet, looking for her signature Fisherman’s Neckbreaker! But Danae reverses it, turning her around before dropping her with the GERMAN SUPLEX!! Danae bridges for the pin!
ONE…!
TWO…!
THRE-
Kick out by Collins! Danae gets her up, looking for the Titan Slam! But Collins reverses the Running Powerslam, instead sending Danae shoulder first into the ringpost! She pulls Danae back to the center of the ring, nailing her with the SOUTH BEACH STILETTO!! EAT DEFEAT!! Pin by Collins!
ONE…!
TWO…!
Kassandra slides under the bottom rope to try and stop the pin, but Taylor Gibson grabs at the ankle to prevent it!
THREE!!
Alex Lawson: The winner of this match…Cin—
Before Lawson can finish his announcement, Kassandra releases herself from Gibson’s grip, rushing in and nailing Collins from behind with a strike! Danae recovers for the match, assisting her partner in the beatdown on the champion! Gibson tries to help, but The Wolves lay her out as well, getting her to the feet before hitting the TITAN’S END!!
Eddie Red Apples: Disgusting behavior by The House of Wolves!
Amber Westgate: And I bet they don’r regret it either!
Kassandra and Danae make their way up the ramp, leaving the World Tag Champions laid out as we fade.
WINNER: CINDY COLLINS
RESULT: PINFALL
Tajnia Mustafi is seated backstage. Her attention is laser-focused on her hand, splayed flat on a table top. She is careful, dragging a pipette along the skin, disposing some ornate, delicate strokes of henna along her skin, covering her fingers and the back of her hand in delicate strokes.
TAJNIA MUSTAFI: Fusion in Glasgow was a bit of a disappointment, all things considered...
Tajnia reflects, her full lips pushing out and blowing a few stands of dark hair out of her face in disappointment.
TAJNIA MUSTAFI: It would be so easy for me as a pragmatic person to say I've never acted recklessly, given into the senselessness of hatred to the point where it caused me to lose a championship. I am very grateful and very lucky that this is still a job for me, and not an all-consuming obsession with the elimination of two human beings like it was for Jordan. I can sulk. I can pine. I can yearn. But, I cannot change how things went down. Code Black got the better of us, Jordan is off, preparing for her nuptials, and the only one left to pick up the pieces... is me.
Tajnia said, mindful of dabbing at a design on the back of her hand. The mehndi is dry, and she is comfortable putting it with her other in her lap, putting her focus on the camera in front of her.
TAJNIA MUSTAFI: Precisely how I like it.
She smiled.
TAJNIA MUSTAFI: I wasn't going for the cheap pops when I said that I've dreamed of competing in the OVO Hydro Arena. This is one of the busiest arenas on the planet! To be here means everything to me. It's a personal bucketlist item ticked off, and it's an honour I get to share with Hayumi Yamamoto...
Tajnia's smile is warm.
TAJNIA MUSTAFI: She and I are two different beasts of a very similar cloth. While it's easy for people to misconstrue the soft-spoken gypsy girl as a non-threat... Hayumi is misrepresented in her presentation. I've seen countless competitors discount her as the pretty girl with little else to offer... and it's really not a surprise to me when they wind up with egg on their faces and asleep on the mat, as a result of Hayumi's Kiyohime's Embrace. I have watched this woman bring assassin's to their peak. That's not incidental. But... I saw something in Hayumi. Something that I feel is a bit indicative of the cracks between the petals of the Venus Fly Trap, desperate to devour me as her prey... and it's the fact that Hayumi wants to be seen as more than just a motivator. She wants us to believe she's an intellectual. But, I see through it. She's a saleswoman. She'll string together words, and speak them with conviction... whether they're true or not? She believes them. And if a pliable ear hears it? They will believe it, too.
Tajnia tucks a stray strand of her dark hair behind her ear.
TAJNIA MUSTAFI: I can't say I'm not impressed. That would be a lie. But, in showing your hand, Hayumi? You showed your weakness. You showed your flaw, and you opened up every single door that I need to claim your arm and victimize a beast trainer. I've not deluded myself into thinking it'll be some easy feat, in fact the momentum? Easily not on my own side... but, that's the thing about momentum... it swings. And that is a fact. So tonight, Hayumi? I'm willing to do whatever it takes to get momentum back on my side, in what is in my opinion the greatest sports venue in the world! And you... you're lacking your beasts, you're lacking security - mentally and physically, and you're lacking the drive that I've got to get the tides back in my favour, and you will need more than a Bokken to stop me.
Tajnia closed her special-event painted fists and giving a few practice swings at the camera. It's here that we fade back elsewhere.
The scene opens up in a dark room. There is a faint, flickering orange light shining somewhere off camera. The shot pans over to a figure sitting cross-legged in the center of two candles, dressed in a white hoodie with the hood pulled up, black leggings and yellow converse sneakers. In front of the figure sits an old opened book.The hooded figure begins whispering. She’s chanting something that isn’t English nor any known language. She holds out her hand and as she does, purple wisps begin dancing around her palm. She extends her arm and slowly moves it horizontally and when she does, something materializes on the floor under where her arm moves. The item is soon revealed to be…
The Internet championship.
Once the title appears in its entirety, the figure retracts their hand. She slowly lifts her head and moves her hands up to pull her hood down, revealing Alexis Lemon, the Internet champion. She has a smile on her face that she’s clearly trying to keep from looking too excited but is not succeeding.
Alexis Lemon: I can’t believe that worked…
She giggles and leans down to blow out her candles as the room’s overhead lights come on.
Alexis Lemon: Glasgow! The queen welcomes you to Avatar Country!
Lexi carefully picks up the book and holds it up to show the camera.
Alexis Lemon: Hey, this is the last Fusion before Halloween. I figure this was a good time to show off my witch status on screen. Alexis the teenage witch!
She giggles and twirls her fingers, pretending to do a magic pose. Except little sparks do emit from her fingertips. She shows off for a few moments before straightening up and letting her expression fall to more neutral.
Alexis Lemon: Okay, but for real. Let’s talk turkey now. So, Lexi’s Internet Championship Adventures-
She leans in and whispers:
Alexis Lemon:- trademark-
She straightens up.
Alexis Lemon: -have been sort of derailed lately. But that’s okay. Because now I get a chance to right some of those wrongs. And at the same time, Aria gets to do the exact same thing. So my opponent just a couple weeks ago is now my ally, and we get to take out Legion and one of her little lackeys. We all know that Legion relies on Kassandra and the rest of ‘em to group up on her opponents, but when the odds are even, like I’ve said before, the whole Hive crumbles. So with Aria and I, and the Queens waiting to even things up if need be, So now they don’t have the advantage. It’s time to see how The Hive reacts and adapts. Can you figure out how to get the upper hand or are you gonna continue to rest on what brought you success before? I guess we’re going to see.
Lexi looks down at her title, and it once again brings a smile to her face. But when she looks up, she’s serious again.
Alexis Lemon: But Aria, I need you to know that, while I’m ready to team with you tonight, I know you're still coming after this-
She places a hand on the belt in front of her.
Alexis Lemon: I’m ready to team with you to defeat a common enemy, but I’m not going to let my guard down around you for any reason when it comes time for your rematch. It isn’t personal, but my trainer taught me you need to have eyes in the back of your head when you’re a champion. You have no idea who is going to come for you, be it friend or enemy. I like to consider us as friends, but that doesn’t mean anything when a title is on the line.
Lexi gets to her feet and grabs up the belt, putting it on her shoulder.
Alexis Lemon: Tonight is going to be kinda tense. My teammate is someone who’s gunning for me. And its possible that the only thing stopping Aria from going after me is the common enemies we have standing across from us. And we all know those two are no easy W either. So it’s going to be a tough night for Lil’ Lemon. But Cthulhu knows I’m ready to take on the tough fight. Because I’m not ready to let this baby disappear right out from under me.
Lemon closes her eyes and begins chanting again, in the same unknown language from before. She raises her free hand, which is again being covered by the purple wisps. She swipes her hand down the belt, causing it to vanish off her shoulder again. She grins and looks back up to the camera, suddenly a little flustered.
Alexis Lemon: Well… unless it’s by my own hand, of course.
She looks around, a bit awkwardly and rubs the back of her head
Alexis Lemon: Ah… look, I’ll see you guys out there. Bye!
Lexi takes exaggerated sneaking steps out of shot as the scene fades out.
MATCH #2: HANA KANEKO VS JESSICA ANDERSON
Kaneko wastes zero time on Anderson, nailing her with a Thrust Kick right off the bell! She pulls her to feet, immediately taking her down with the Bladestopper (Rainmaker)! She pulls Anderson up again, hitting her with a second Bladestopper before getting her up and hitting Life’s Pledge (Pepsi Plunge Knee Strike)! She goes for the pin, only a scoring a two count before pulling Anderson off the mat herself! She decides to finish this one violently, cinching in an Armbar that wrenches Anderson’s arm all the way back! Anderson vigorously taps, giving the win to Kaneko!
Alex Lawson: The winner of this match…Hana! Kaneko!
Kaneko stands over Anderson as we fade.
WINNER: HANA KANEKO
RESULT: SUBMISSION
Eddie Red Apples: Well that was a hell of a performance by the former Viral Champion! And speaking of the Viral Championship, next week the current champion Morgana Summers defends—
ZION Wrestling FUSION’s scheduled programming is suddenly interrupted by a rather haunting refrain. “All we hear is Radio Gaga” plays on an extended loop over loudspeakers at the OVO Hydro in Glasgow, Scotland. All broadcasting cameras pan to the entrance ramp where NFW Collision’s Azurine Vebbins holds a steel chair. Based on its craftsmanship, the steel chair appears to be custom-smelted. “Da Hardheaded Housewife” extends her free right hand like she’s wanting to catch a baseball or can of beer. She then thinks better of it and pulls out her personalized microphone. Shockingly, the condensed communication device is hotwired to the stadium’s sound system. After the initial wave of adulation crescendos, Azurine addresses the audience.
Azurine Vebbins: Gregarious greetin’s, Glaswegians! You’re probably ponderin’ why I’ve annexed ZION Wrestlin’ FUSION airtime, aye? Well, it involves someone to cross off my often-referenced about Dream Dance List. More specifically, it’s your current, reignin’, and defendin’ Viral Champion…“Da Pretentious Pagan” and “Da Bland? She Wishes” Morgana Summers. We’ve follow one anoder on Twitter, but have yet to go twirlin’ toe-to-toe in a sin’-les competitive capacity. I’m sure we’ve had odd-er opportunities in da past, but to my recollection bookin’ instability prevented it. I’ve been chosen by New Frontier Wrestlin’...
A cacophony of boos ring out throughout the arena.
Azurine Vebbins: A-line, hem and haw, deyr’s no way to skirt dis issue…I’ve been chosen by da Collison brand to challenge for what could very well be my next waist halo. Plus, when you tabulate talent as bein’ a “viral sensation,” do you go wid da dame who has a palindrome of one-hundred and twenty-one followers? Rarely. Influence doesn’t develop until at least five hundred people.My social media cache as well as sway’s over one-dousand. Could “kayfabe” it, but I’ll leave dat to da affordable, accomodatin’ Airline I flew over here on. Notion dis should be enough to spark negotiations. I’ll drop Summers on da dancefloor whenever’s most convenient and I’ll send dat witchy wailer to da nearest neighborhood of nirvana dat needs her. In da interim, however, since I didn’t view Morgana booked for dis particular dance card, I’m gonna need a proxy…
Vebbins holds up the chair to reveal “MORGANA SUMMERS” spray painted on the back portion. She repeatedly smashes said chair against the ramp until Robert Marino tells her to leave the premises.
We open in a cemetery somewhere in the countryside of Scotland. Horrendous bagpipe music is heard playing in the background. The sound of this terrible playing is quite loud and only gets louder, indicating that whoever is playing is getting closer and closer to the camera. And sure enough we spot “The Woman Scorned” Kimberly Williams entering the scene from the right. She is dressed in black boots, a traditional red Scottish kilt, a white t-shirt which reads “Death Match Queen” on the front in crimson red lettering, and a black leather jacket. And yes, The Woman Scorned is the one playing the bagpipes. Bringing up the rear is her animatronic friend Velociraptor Blue.
Velociraptor Blue: Stop it! You’re killing me!
Williams ceases the bagpipe playing for a moment, only to shout at the top of her lungs the next moment…
Kimberly Williams: MAMA I’M COMIN’ HOOOOOME!
Velociraptor Blue: The song is GOING HOME! It’s supposed to be a traditional Scottish tune.
Kimberly Williams: What was I singing?
Velociraptor Blue: Ozzy Osbourne!
Williams shrugs her shoulders. She lifts the bagpipes up and places them on Blue’s back.
Kimberly Williams: Can’t fault a girl for trying, right? Here hold this…
Velociraptor Blue: I should shove it up yer ass!
The Woman Scorned and reigning SCW Underground, HKW Bloodlust, and Unsanctioned Champion turns back to face the camera. A sadistic grin is etched across her lovely features.
Kimberly Williams: Daria, Daria, Daria…are you by any chance named after that chick from the Beavis and Butthead show? I’d love your autograph! I mean, after the match and all, and you can even sign it in your own blood and shit because trust me, babe, you and I are both gonna spill some blood. At least if I have any say in the matter!
She claps her hands excitedly, looking forward to the mayhem that will ensue. She then pats herself on the chest.
Kimberly Williams: You want to put moi in a submission or two? How sweet! I mean, I suppose we could do the old submission song and dance if ya wanted. I am just as good a submission artist as I am a Death Match Queen. But there’s just something special about maiming your opponent, seeing their blood spill all over the canvas.
Williams throws her head back and cackles nastily.
Kimberly Williams: If you want to try and outwrestle me then have at it. It is your funeral. You will learn very quickly that I am not a one trick pony. You will learn that I am capable of so much more than just mayhem and destruction. Such is the nature of chaos, isn’t it? You have to expect the unexpected when it comes to chaos. Chaos isn’t limited to simply influencing the hardcore division. Chaos can influence anything and everything in this business, from backdoor deals, the idiots in catering, and yes, even a straight up wrestling match. This business is built upon the principle of chaos and Daria, sweetie, I embrace chaos. I love it. I crave it. More importantly, I THRIVE in it.
She shakes her head.
Kimberly Williams: So expect the unexpected, Daria. In fact, you may very well be the one tapping out when everything is said and done. You could tap out to Homage to the Queen…or Scorned…
Williams pats her knee.
Kimberly Williams: Or I could just knock you out with Shadowblade! So many chaotic options for me to choose from!
She playfully waves at the camera.
Kimberly Williams: See you tonight!
MATCH #3: TAJNIA MUSTAFI VS HAYUMI YAMAMOTO
Mustafi starts off with the upper hand in this match, with the more experienced grappler getting the better of Yamamoto in a lock up exchange! She gets a Waistlock in on the Daimyo of Violence, who quickly turns the tables with a few quick Elbows to the side of the head! She throw Mustafi away with a Hip Toss before rushing her with a Lariat as she returns to her feet! She continues the onslaught, catching a grounded Mustafi with a Running Senton before pinning for the two!
Yamamoto gets Mustafi to her feet, nailing a few stiff strikes that send her into the corner! She looks to send Mustafi across the ring with an Irish Whip, but it gets reversed, with Yamamoto being tossed to the opposite corner instead! Mustafi immediately catches up with Clothesline in the corner, before pulling Yamamoto out and tossing her to the mat with an Exploder Suplex! Yamamoto tries to get to her feet, only to be met with a Bicycle Kick! Mustafi goes for the pin, only scoring a two!
Mustafi looks to finish this one off, rushing over to hit a Curbstomp to a recovering Yamamoto! But she pushes Mustafi away, before ducking underneath a follow-up Lariat attempt and getting in a Waistlock! She sees the referee perfectly aligned with them, pushing Mustafi into them and causing the two to both fall to the mat! Yamamoto sees her opportunity, reaching towards the corner for her signature Bokken! But just then, another set of hands grab for it! It’s Aubrianna Powers, looking for retribution for what happened on Mondays Mayhem! The two have a tug of war over the wooden sword, with Powers winning and nailing Yamamoto with a huge shot to midsection using it. Powers makes her leave as Yamamoto and Mustafi get up in unison! Yamamoto goes for a swing, but her midsection is too banged up to follow through on it, leaving her open to the Dragon's Bite (Skull Kick) by Mustafi! She pins, getting the three!
Alex Lawson: The winner of this match…Tajnia! Mustafi!
Eddie Red Apples: Retribution for Aubrianna Powers spells victory for the Lady Genius tonight!
Amber Westgate: A win over a name like Hayumi Yamamoto isn’t to be taken lightly! Hopefully she can continue this upwards—WHOA!
Mustafi backs up the ramp in celebration of her victory, only to be attacked from behind by Christina Olson! The crowd are aghast at this seemingly random attack, with a Banshee laying into Mustafi with a set of Stomps before throwing her shoulder first into the ring post! A sea of referees come in to break up the two, with Olson being rushed away as we fade.
WINNER: TAJNIA MUSTAFI
RESULT: PINFALL
Earle
The scene opens with a woman walking across the St. Andrews Suspension Bridge at Glasgow Greens. The woman was none other than Cassie Lopez. She walks alone, obviously in thought as she surrounds herself in the wonderous atmosphere of the park…that to which she takes no time to admire.
Her focus now is on the camera in front of her as it follows her movement.
Cassie Lopez: It’s funny how things go. It’s very close to the end of 2022 and everything is in disarray. The Privileged Elite has been in a downslide. So much that most of my friends is taking time off to regroup. They keep getting screwed over repeatedly. And what makes this even worse is that each and every one of you are loving every minute of it, basking in our misery.
And then there’s me. I knew that I made the right decision when I put my name on the dotted line to compete in Zion Wrestling. I knew that with my talents that I would be the best almost immediately. But things haven’t been going my way either. This frustrates me to no end, but like my friends, you all couldn’t be happier.
As Cassie stops walking, she takes a moment to calm herself down, for she is beginning to feel heated after the last comment. After a while in doing so, she refocuses on the camera, who hasn’t lost its position as it keeps its focus on her.
Cassie Lopez: It’s things like this that make it a holiday for you insignificant cretins that’s so used to mediocrity and inferiority; loving to see people like me and my friends suffer. But there’s something you seem to forget about us, or just too damn stupid to understand. When things get tough, people like us, we buckle down harder and move forward. When we set our sights on something, we go after it….at ANY cost. We never give a damn with the consequences are, much less give a damn to what people think of us. This is the very thing that made us who we are today. This is what makes us Gods with infinite wealth and prestige and you people peasants divulging in table scraps. The thing that makes us giants in everything we do and you…. nothing more but ants at our feet. And this is the very thing that will empower us into not stopping until we get what we want. The bottom line, this setback that we’re on is only going to make us stronger and more ruthless. And you can bet your ass we WILL be that and then some when we stand together again, CRUSHING everyone in our path to elevate our desire. It’s not a matter of if, but when. And you all better pray that “when” never comes.
After delivering a light giggle under her breath, takes a moment to collect her thoughts before continuing her focus on the camera.
Cassie Lopez: Kara (Carbajal), I know very well what I’m getting into with you. You may think I’m in the wrong place at the wrong time, but I think your ego is growing past your brain, which shouldn’t be that hard since your brain is the size of a pea. But the one thing I know for sure is that you are a killing machine in that ring…. extremely dangerous from head to toe feeding upon those who fear you. Well, “Gargantubitch”, tonight’s going to be your unlucky night. Because the most dangerous person in the world is the one who has laid dormant, just waiting to strike. And you will be staring that person down.
Cassie tosses her hair to the side then begins walk again, addressing the camera.
Cassie Lopez: You better believe it doesn't get any more real than this, Kara. Oh, yes. The chance for you to elevate your legacy by adding yet another casualty in your wake....and so is the superior rich bitch who wants to officially begin hers once again. And if nothing else, I hope you realize that you are going to be the one who will be the central piece of my rise in Fusion and what I will deliver tenfold!
Cassie puts a little “sass” in that comment with her facial expressions, however the tone was of one who is serious.
Cassie Lopez: You bring all your fight, Kara. I’ll accept nothing less. I’ll just bring your execution. And there will be plenty of it for me to give. We will bring the house down with our match. But make no mistake “Killer,” it will be YOU that goes down.
Then, Cassie stops and steps closer to the camera, allowing only to capture her neck and face...and an ice-cold merciless demeanor.
Cassie Lopez: So, you tell me, Kara, who’s REALLY in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Cassie continues to stare down the camera for a few seconds more before walking away, allowing the camera to focus on the landscape before fading to black.
The opening to “The Gun Show” by In This Moment begins to play through the PA system and as soon as Maria Brink’s vocals kick in, Kara “Killer” Carbajal storms out onto the stage followed by Miguel Ortiz, the latter dressed to the nines in a black suit. Carbajal turns her back to the camera and outstretches her arms showing the devil’s horns and then flexes before giving Ortiz a fist bump before she swiftly turns around and begins to march down the ramp to the ring.
Eddie Red Apples: Well here comes Kara Carbajal flanked by her childhood friend and fellow Fusion roster member, Miguel Ortiz.
Amber Westgate: It appears that ever since Ortiz arrived on the scene here, wherever either of these two go… the other isn’t too far behind.
Once they reach the ring, Carbajal wastes little time in rolling under the bottom rope and makes her way to the center of the ring, outstretching her arms again. While this is happening, Ortiz has grabbed a microphone from a stagehand and makes his way up the steel steps and climbs through the ropes. He hands the microphone over to Carbajal and stands side by side next to Carbajal as “The Gun Show” fades out.
Kara "Killer" Carbajal: “Top Tier” Cassie Lopez…
Carbajal tosses her head back in laughter and Ortiz joins her in said laughter.
Kara "Killer" Carbajal: The only thing that’s gonna be “top tier” tonight is the beating I’m gonna inflict upon you, Lopez!
KC’s demeanor has turned serious now.
Kara "Killer" Carbajal: You see… it’s people such as yourself that I hate with a passion! Rich, arrogant pieces of crap who value money and materialistic things more than the things that truly matter!
Ortiz shakes his head.
Kara "Killer" Carbajal: Don’t get me wrong! I came from a rich family too! And the less said about them, the better! And I KNOW I can be an arrogant bitch as well! But I actually value things that are important! Like family… and when I say family… I mean my REAL family! Like Miguel here and my Shieldmaiden sisters!
Ortiz is now nodding his head, applauding the words of the Shieldmaiden.
Kara "Killer" Carbajal: I’m going to enjoy tearing you apart tonight, Lopez! And as far as you’re concerned, Dorsey?! You better pay close attention! Because this is what’s coming your way at Bloodsport!
KC then tosses the microphone out of the ring before removing her kutte as she turns her attention to the stage awaiting the arrival of her opponent as Ortiz massages her shoulders and gives her a pep talk.
Eddie Red Apples: Well here comes Kara Carbajal flanked by her childhood friend and fellow Fusion roster member, Miguel Ortiz.
Amber Westgate: It appears that ever since Ortiz arrived on the scene here, wherever either of these two go… the other isn’t too far behind.
Once they reach the ring, Carbajal wastes little time in rolling under the bottom rope and makes her way to the center of the ring, outstretching her arms again. While this is happening, Ortiz has grabbed a microphone from a stagehand and makes his way up the steel steps and climbs through the ropes. He hands the microphone over to Carbajal and stands side by side next to Carbajal as “The Gun Show” fades out.
Kara "Killer" Carbajal: “Top Tier” Cassie Lopez…
Carbajal tosses her head back in laughter and Ortiz joins her in said laughter.
Kara "Killer" Carbajal: The only thing that’s gonna be “top tier” tonight is the beating I’m gonna inflict upon you, Lopez!
KC’s demeanor has turned serious now.
Kara "Killer" Carbajal: You see… it’s people such as yourself that I hate with a passion! Rich, arrogant pieces of crap who value money and materialistic things more than the things that truly matter!
Ortiz shakes his head.
Kara "Killer" Carbajal: Don’t get me wrong! I came from a rich family too! And the less said about them, the better! And I KNOW I can be an arrogant bitch as well! But I actually value things that are important! Like family… and when I say family… I mean my REAL family! Like Miguel here and my Shieldmaiden sisters!
Ortiz is now nodding his head, applauding the words of the Shieldmaiden.
Kara "Killer" Carbajal: I’m going to enjoy tearing you apart tonight, Lopez! And as far as you’re concerned, Dorsey?! You better pay close attention! Because this is what’s coming your way at Bloodsport!
KC then tosses the microphone out of the ring before removing her kutte as she turns her attention to the stage awaiting the arrival of her opponent as Ortiz massages her shoulders and gives her a pep talk.
MATCH #4: KARA CARBAJAL VS CASSIE LOPEZ
Carbajal laughs in the general direction of Lopez at the start of this match, not thinking much of the outgoing former Fusion roster member! She rushes across the ring, looking to start with a Lariat! But the smarter Lopez ducks underneath, nailing Carbajal with a few kicks to the thigh before hitting the ropes for another move! Carbajal catches her by the throat however, looking to lift her up for Chokeslam! Lopez reverses now, escaping Carbajal’s grip in midair and landing behind her before pushing her toward the ropes for an O’Connor Roll Pin! Carbajal kicks out at two!
Lopez immediately pops to her feet, laying into Carbajal with a set of Stomps! One manages to be caught by Killer however, who gets to her feet with Lopez’s foot in head! She gets full purchase around Lopez’s throat, picking her up and dropping her with the Two-Handed Chokebomb! She pops to her feet, inviting Lopez to do the same! Lopez rushes to Carbajal, being taken down with a Belly-To-Belly Suplex! She gets up, taking a second Belly-To-Belly! Carbajal lifts for a third, only for Lopez to pop up with Dropkick instead! She takes to the second rope now, launching herself at Carbajal with a Crossbody! Carbajal rolls through however, getting up with Lopez in hand before dropping her with a Fallaway Slam! She invites Lopez to get up again, nailing her with her signature Spear! Carbajal pins, only getting a close two!
Carbajal lifts Lopez off the mat, looking for a Jackhammer! But Lopez manages to get out of it, sending Carbajal to a knee with a kick behind the leg before hitting the ropes for the Curbstomp! Carbajal dodges however, getting Lopez right into a Rear Naked Choke! Lopez is in the center of the ring with nowhere to go, eventually succumbing to the hold as she taps out!
Alex Lawson: The winner of this match, via submission…Kara! Carbajal!
Eddie Red Apples: Carbajal looking to send a message to Daria Dorsey ahead of their Bloodsport Match next week!
Amber Westgate: Well then I’d consider that a message sent! Killer looks unstoppable right now!
Carbajal celebrates as we fade.
WINNER: KARA CARBJAL
RESULT: SUBMISSION
Fable Rowen: Would you believe it's been 171 days since we've been drafted to Fusion? And that we've been booked precisely zero times in that 171 days on Fusion?
Fable Rowen asked, the sight of her backstage bringing a pop to the crowd in Glasgow. She wears a Celtic Football club tanktop, fitted to her figure, with black joggers and sneakers. The camera pans over, showing the sight of the other half of BFG: Kenzie Garrett, wearing the MWE Intercontinental Championship on her shoulder. She has the other old firm football team for Glasgow covered, wearing a Rangers F.C. jersey style top over black beat up jeans and sneakers. Her lips purse, a hand on her hip as she glances, accusingly, at Fable.
Kenzie Garrett: And what have we learned in that time away?
Fable grins.
Fable Rowen: That I miss gold too.
Kenzie Garrett: Not what I was going for, but fair enough...
Fable Rowen: Don't get me wrong. Getting paid for sitting at home is hardly the worst thing. But, how are we going to fix this problem? The "Me, not having gold," issue and the last thing that people remember of us is being subjected to making some dumpster divers seem more important than they are? Two very big problems and not exactly how I wanna spend the sunset era of my career.
Kenzie pauses. Tapping her chin, pensive in thought.
Kenzie Garrett: Climb the ranks? Make people remember that we're one of the best tag teams on the planet today?
Fable Rowen: Not a bad suggestion. So how about this... an open tag team challenge? I'm aware we're stepping back in to the limelight, but as you can tell, it's not exactly like we've been sitting on our hands during our time away.
Kenzie nodded, giving her title a pat.
Fable Rowen: Shake the rust off, and let 'em know that contrary to the past 171 days, we're not the team to be slept on.
Kenzie Garrett: I like it. Fuck a few people up, hit a few victory shuffles, make my other shoulder 100% less naked sooner, rather than later? Let's make it happen.
The brunette bumps fists with her blonde counterpart. The camera fades back to ringside, with the open challenge lingering in the air.
Daria is backstage, once again looking over the tape of Kara Carbajal devastating her at the cage match which had shelved her for several months. Daria would notice the crew approaching her, as she speaks to them.
Daria Dorsey:
"I keep seeing this almost every night. It's burned in my mind, the night that Kara had taken my time in the ring away from me... on November 4th, I have one of the biggest fights in my career against her. The first ever Bloodsport match, and tonight begins preparation for it. Tonight, I take on the so-called Queen of the Deathmatch."
Daria stated, as she was one on one with Kimberly Williams, and potentially a velociraptor?
Daria Dorsey:
"In my mind, nothing is going to be a better warm up for that fight than taking on our resident hardcore nutcase! Kim, I know you've got a bit of a doofy personality going on, but, I know you can give me exactly what I need. You can give me the fight I crave. You can give me the challenge I desire, and most importantly, Kimberly, you can give me the obstacle I can overcome. Because when I get you in that ring, and the Queen of the Deathmatch squares up with every little trick up her sleeve... I'm going to have an answer for whatever you have to throw at me. Happy Halloween, Kimberly... because, I'm going to be the scariest thing you see tonight."
MATCH #5: DARIA DORSEY VS KIMBERLY WILLIAMS
Williams and Dorsey start off decently matched in this contest, keeping up with one another hold for hold at the start! This all begins to change with a Waistlock by Dorsey! She pushes Williams towards the ropes, looking to pull her in for an O’Connor Roll! But Williams hooks her arms on the ropes, sending Dorsey back to the mat on her own! She capitalizes, catching a seated Dorsey with a Penalty Kick! Dorsey attempts to make it to her feet, with Williams catching her short with a Scissors Kick for the pin! Dorsey kicks out at two!
Williams pulls Dorsey to her feet, looking for a Vertical Suplex! But Dorsey slips her grip and lands behind her, folding her in an O’Connor Roll that gets a two! She continues on however, tossing Williams across the ring with a German Suplex right off the pin! She jumps to the ropes now, looking for a Springboard Uppercut! But Williams catches her in a Ripcord position before attempting to pull her in! Dorsey reverses with a Kick to the midsection, before taking Williams down with a Piledriver! Dorsey rolls through, nailing Williams with a second Piledriver before going for the pin and only getting the two!
Dorsey looks to finish this off, rushing over and looking for her signature Bicycle Knee Lift/Back Suplex combo! She hits the Knee Lift, but Williams flips out of the Back Suplex, jumping up and nailing Dorsey with a Double Foot Stomp! Williams sees her opportunity, taking to the top rope and looking for the Chaos Theory! But Dorsey rolls out of the way of the Phoenix Splash, with Williams crashing and burning! She tries to recover, but it’s two late, with Dorsey pulling her up and hitting the Phoenix Driver (Takeo Driver)! She pins, getting the three!
Alex Lawson: The winner of this match…Daria! Dorsey!
Eddie Red Apples: Another win by Daria Dorsey! Time will tell if this momentum can be kept up with a looming Kara Carbajal coming for her next Friday!
Amber Westgate: If anyone could handle the pressure, the Zenith can!
Dorsey celebrates as we fade.
WINNER: DARIA DORSEY
RESULT:PINFALL
Kassandra and Legion are shown getting ready in their locker room, as Legion had been brushing her hair. Legion heard the outer door opening, figuring Danae had returned from her battle. Kassandra thought otherwise, and went over to the door pulling the cameraman through the door. Legion looked down shaking her head at him, she smiled as she put the brush down looking at Kassandra.
“the Queen” Legion: You know it’s men like this, that cause our issues, so what should we do with him young wolf?
“the Blue-Eyed Wolf” Kassandra: Entertain him my queen, obviously he comes here for a purpose. He knows better than to come here uninvited.
The cameraman nods, as Legion gets three chairs set up for them in the far side of the locker room. Kassandra escorted him over and sat him down, Legion sitting in front of him, Kassandra to her left. Legion then smirks, as she looked at him.
“the Queen” Legion: For 26 days we have been without our Internet Championship. And for those 26 days we have thought to ourselves, when we would get our hands once again on the young Lemon. Tonight is that chance, giving us a shot to show her that the rematch we want will be the one we get. Aria you are just a casualty, that should not have been involved in the first place. We want her on our own, you are just getting in the way, claiming you didn’t have a fair shot. You did, we just had to remind you that we are the one who is first in line when it comes to the Internet Championship.
The cameraman turns away from Legion, looking over at Kassandra.
“the Blue-Eyed Wolf” Kassandra: Tonight is about helping the Queen get her revenge on those that have wronged her. Aria, the queen is right, you are just a casualty because you jumped the line with her. You should not do that makes life a lot harder for you. See I’m a strong tag team competitor, but the Queen also knows when push comes to shove, I am the one who can handle myself. Tonight ladies, you are getting the full Hive experience, and when it is all said and done. You will…
Legion turned the camera to her, she had put on her jacket by this point. She cackled slightly as she then got serious.
“the Queen” Legion: Memento Mori…
Legion tosses Kassandra her jacket then she gets up the two begin their walk out as the cameraman followed them. Legion scoffed, and the scene faded out.
