((“Hardwire” by Metallica blares over the PA system as a video package begins to play, showing the highlights from Episode Twelve of Anarchy. The video shows Gavin Grimes and Xavier Young teaming up and picking up a victory, ending with Grimes hitting The Crowning but as soon as that part is done showing, the video feed cuts away and the arena goes black.))
KV: What’s going on?
SG: I don’t know? I wanted to watch that video!
KV: It looks like it got cut short though.
((The lights in the arena fade out as the big screen comes alive. Two taped fists appear on opposite sides of the screen, one glowing red with fire around it, the other a pulsating blue with an electrical current running over it. The two fists then crash into each other with an explosion revealing the name Tyson Gregory in their aftermath. "Dangerous" by Shaman's Harvest starts playing throughout the arena as a bright spotlight shines at the top of the ramp. The FSociety Champion, Tyson Gregory then steps out through the curtain in baggy jeans, a black "Yes, I Am Tyson Gregory" shirt and the FSociety Championship belt draped over his shoulder. He steps into the stage and cups his ear to the fans that give a harsh boo and jeer towards him.))
SG: Well this is better than a video package! We get to start the show with the #FSociety Champion!
KV: I guess we can’t complain! The fans here at the Key Arena in Seattle sure are enjoying it. Well, some of them it is.
SG: Those boos are really cheers! Come on, Khristina! It’s Opposite Day!
KV: I think that day was a few months ago.
((He laughs and gives them a sarcastic thumbs up as he makes his way down the ramp completely ignoring the fans the rest of the way. Once at the ring he pulls himself up on the apron where he leaps over the top rope and into the ring. Tyson gets to the middle of the ring and raises the FSociety Championship high above his head causing the fans to boo some more. He makes his way to the corner of the ring and gets a microphone, that he taps the top of a few times causing a thudding throughout the arena.))
Tyson Gregory: Okay okay... If my adoring fans would stop cheering me for a moment, I have an announcement.
((The fans boo once again. This time Tyson cups his ear again and plays up that he can't hear them. This only makes the boos louder.))
Tyson Gregory: Man this is a horrible crowd here tonight, no wonder the SuperSonics got out of town as fast as they could.
((The arena loudly boos again.))
Tyson Gregory: Come on! Get loud Seattle! Maybe if you did the Seahawks would have choked in the Super Bowl again instead of at home against the Packers.
((The boos and jeers get much louder this time.))
Tyson Gregory: Now that I have your attention... I had a meeting with, The boss, Robb Hardy today. You see, I am the greatest FSociety Champion in history. I have done what no one else has ever and that's defended it successfully and won it twice. So when I tell Robb that I have an idea for what kind of match I want at Cold Dawn against Aurora Graves... He gives it to me.
((Tyson chuckles a bit as the crowd boos some more.))
Tyson Gregory: So what did I want? A steel cage match? A ladder match? Lumberjack match? Puddin' on a pole match? No as fun as the last one sounds... I'm going to give Aurora the one match she truly deserves...
((Tyson takes a moment and smirks to the camera.))
Tyson Gregory: A standard singles match.
((The fans boo Tyson's choice.))
Tyson Gregory: Why boo me? Boo Aurora Graves! She's the one that came out here after I beat Dirk Bentley and rained on my parade by trying to stake her claim of my FSociety Championship. So I'm going to give Aurora exactly what she's worth to me... To this company. You get nothing special because you are nothing special, Aurora. I don't need some kind of specialty match to beat you and I'm not sharing my spotlight with you anymore than I have to. So there you have it Aurora... A match as special as you are.
((The fans boo loudly once again as Tyson just smirks to them and shrugs his shoulders before leaving the ring as "Dangerous" starts to play again.))
KV: Wow… Some choice words by the champion.
SG: He does not like Aurora at all.
KV: It’s going to be interesting to see how their match plays out at Cold Dawn.
SG: Tyson has been a wrecking machine since he lost to Adrien Cochrane a few months ago. Nothing is going to be able to stop him.
KV: Indeed. Well, it’s now time to get to our first match!
Match One: Fans Bring The Weapons Match
Anarchy Championship
Xavier Young versus Allyson Morrow
Jennifer Taylor: This match is scheduled for one for and it’s a Fans Bring The Weapons match for the Anarchy Championship! Coming to the ring first is the challenger… Weighing in at 210 pounds and hailing from Skittle Kingdom… He is the General of the Skittle Army… XAVIERRRR YOUNG!
(("The Skittles Song" by Stereo Witness sounds throughout the #FSociety arena as Xavier Young appears onto the entrance way with matching Skittle-colored attire. Xavier walks down the ramp when he notices Seattle Seahawks great, Marshawn Lynch. Xavier stops and him and Marshawn give each other a high five.'))
SG: It’s Marshawn Lynch!
KV: The only person who might loves Skittles more than Xavier might be Marshawn Lynch.
SG: Marshawn is the real Skittles King!!
((Marshawn Lynch pulls out a bag of Skittles and begins to pour them into Xavier’s mouth and the fans go nuts. Xavier then runs down to the ring and slides in, clearly pumped up from the moment.))
SG: That was the greatest moment of Xavier’s life. Too bad he’s about to experience the worst moment when Ally kills him.
KV: Don’t say that!
SG: What? It’s true!
Jennifer Taylor: His opponent… Weighing in at 120 pounds from Essex, England... She is the reigning ANARCHY CHAMPION…. ALLYSON GRACE MORROW!!!
((The arena in plunged into darkness as “”Big Bad Wolf” by In This Moment hits the speakers. A single yellow spotlight travels up the ramp, as it hits the stage, gold pyros go off and the lights come up to Ally Morrow standing on the stage with the Anarchy Championship strapped onto her shoulder. Her hand is on her hip as she’s staring out at the crowd with a smirk on her face. Allyson walks down the ramp occasionally pausing to smirk over her shoulder at the booing fans, she then climbs the steel steps and walks to the middle of the ropes, leaning her arms across the top rope, she sits on the middle rope like a throne and poses on it for a moment before pushing up and flipping over the top rope into the ring she lands on her feet and flips her long blonde hair back with a grin.))
KV: Ally has a darkness in her eyes that I haven’t seen since…
SG: Since Ashleigh Jericho was wrestling?
KV: Basically.
((Ally walks across the ring and calls for her music to be cut, taking a microphone from the official she steps up to Xavier and looks him up and down slowly with a small smirk on her lips. The pair square off for a moment before she takes a step back and turns instead to address the fans.))
Ally Morrow: You know.. It occurred to me tonight that Xavier Young has done absolutely NOTHING to earn his spot here tonight and yet, I am still expected to put MY Anarchy Championship on the line… That is completely and utter horse shit.
((Ally looks at Xavier with a small smile.))
Ally Morrow: Now, don’t go getting all flattered Young, it’s not that I don’t think I can retain against you… It’s just that, I think fair is fair and if I am putting something on the line in this match, then so should you… But the question is, what do I want?
((She walks over to Xavier and pinches his hair between her thumb and forefinger, before Xavier slaps her hand away and she half laughs before wiping her hand off on her shorts, clearly grossed out.))
Ally Morrow: When I beat you Xavier, you are going to shave off that vile.. Greasy… mop of hair on your head… Deal?
SG: She’s going to take his hair off when she wins! YES!
KV: Don’t do it Xavier!
((Xavier laughs and nods his head, holding out a hand to shake on it. Ally tosses the mic out of the ring and turns to shake Xavier's hand, but instead nails him with hard kick to the stomach followed up by a knee to the face, the crowd erupts into boos as the bell is rung and the match gets under-way.))
KV: What a cheapshot!
SG: I love it!
((As Ally leans over Xavier to pull him up, he kicks up and firmly plants both his feet into her chest, causing her to stumble back and gasp for breath, she shakes her head as she shakes the impact off and Xavier gets to his feet, Ally holds her hand out with the ‘bring it’ motion but Young shakes his head at her, knowing better than to charge her, Ally then shrugs and drops to the mat, rolling to the outside. Xavier follows suit and they both start to stalk the barrier on their respective sides of the ring.))
KV: What’s about to happen?
SG: I don’t know know but I’m excited! Come on Ally! Go after that Skittle idiot and kill him!
((Ally turns and takes a baseball bat from just behind the barrier, it’s all painted up with the names of people she has used the bat on in matches before and it’s obvious that the weapon was not a fans but was something she had planted, she stares across the space at Xavier before rolling into the ring, She taps the bat against the soles of her boots as she waits for him to join her in the ring again.))
KV: Ally is patiently waiting for Xavier to get in the ring.
((With a grin Young pulls a heavy chain up from behind the barrier, the chain has been painted rainbow colours and appears to even have glitter on it. Ally rolls her eyes and shouts out ‘oh come on’ before making a face at Xavier.))
SG: Xavier has a chain!
KV: Evening the odds I see.
((As he moves to get in the ring she swings the bat aiming for his head, but he ducks and she gets his shoulder instead, still enough impact to cause him to stumble a little and Ally grabs him by the hair, flipping him over the top rope to land in the ring, the chain dropped to the outside. Ally pulls the bat up and places it against Xavier’s throat, she bares down and leans into the bat, choking him with it as she leans over him.))
KV: This is brutal!
SG: She’s going to choke the life out of him!
((Young bring a leg up and kicks Ally in the gut, she is forced to back off a little and he is able to get a hand under the bat and slams it upwards, smashing the end of Ally’s own bat into her face, she immediately drops the bat and backs off, turning away from Xavier to cradle her mouth. Young comes up from behind her and grabs her shoulders, spinning her to face him, as he does Ally spits her blood in his face, similar in the way to which she usually spits her mist. Young yells in disgust and Morrow wipes her mouth, clearing away the blood that had started to run down her chin.))
KV: Ally just spit blood in Xavier’s face! Gross!
SG: Even worse… I think she just lost a tooth! This is a travesty! Her dentist is all the way in Vegas and we’re stuck in stupid Seattle!
((As Xavier wipes her blood from his face Ally runs the ropes, bouncing off of them into a leaping crossbody, slamming them both to the mat. Young nails her with an elbow to her already injured mouth and she rolls back onto her heels, sitting up before she slides across the canvas on her side and kicks Xavier square between the legs with a toe punt. The entire arena groans as Xavier looks green in the face and rolls onto his side, cradling his family jewels.))
KV: Low blow!
SG: Yes! Ruin is tiny Skittles!
((Ally sits back against the ropes and checks her mouth, as she opens her mouth she has to lean through the ropes and spit another mouthful of blood onto the outside, the official tries to check on her and she angrily shoves him away, the distraction enough for Xavier To have gotten to his feet and he hits Ally with a jumping dropkick to the chest. Ally cradles her chest and rolls out under the bottom rope. Xavier rolls to his feet and begins to stalk the ring.))
KV: Xavier gets the upperhand now.
SG: Ally is going under the ring!
((In her usual style, Ally disappears under the ring and after a few paces up and down, Xavier can’t help himself and rolls to the outside to start circling the ring trying to figure out where she will come out from. As he passes the announce table, Ally jumps up onto it, chair in hand and runs with a leaping show, nailing Xavier in his back with the chair and driving him face first into the barrier.))
KV: OUCH!
SG: That was brutal!
((She gets to her feet and turns the chair sideways, slamming it into Xavier’s nose several times, the final impact coming with a crunch to the nose. As she pulls the chair back and throws it away, we can see Xavier’s nose has exploded from the shot and blood starts to trickle down his face. Ally smiles and blood smile down at Xavier and holds up a hand as though she is asking for him to wait right there.))
KV: Xavier’s nose is busted!
SG: This is all kinds of bad. This is Anarchy!
((Ally then kicks him square in the face for good measure, leaving him propped sitting up against the barrier she turns and walks over towards the ring apron, throwing it up she pulls out a familiar looking container, she shakes it and it makes the same rattle it did when she pulled it out for Gray and Jan… She turns and starts to stalk Xavier, her smile bloodied and seemingly missing a tooth on her bottom left side she drops to her knees in front of him and grabs a handful of his hair, yanking his head back she tips the container to drop the contents in his open mouth.))
KV: What is that? Is it pins like she did with Gray?
SG: NO! IT’S WORSE! IT’S M&M’s!!!
KV: Oh no!!!
((Instead of pins, the container is filled with M&Ms! Xavier tries to fight her but she bounces his head off the barrier and then shoves her hand over his mouth, ensuring that she has forced the candy in his mouth, she then back up some, throwing the container into the crowd she takes a running charge into a dropkick right in Xavier’s face, but he manages to move at the last moment,one of her feet still catch his face and he spits out the M&M’s as her other foot smashes into the barrier.))
KV: Xavier tried to move but Ally caught the kick anyway.
SG: She is relentless. Xavier has woken a monster.
((Ally pulls back sitting up she cradles her ankle for a moment, it’s obvious she’s hurt it some on the impact as Xavier rolls onto his side, she forces herself up and leans over Xavier, kicking him in the chest and stomach and using the barrier for support. Young hooks her legs and yanks back, causing Ally to slam face first into the barrier! As she hits the mats she rolls onto her back, before she can protect her face, Young places his boot on her face and then jumps up, driving the sole of his boot into Ally’s face, busting up her mouth again.))
KV: This is a different side of Xavier Young!
SG: He’s probably learned all of this from Gavin.
KV: What? He was Gavin’s trainer!
SG: Bullcrap! I refuse to believe it.
((Something ignites in Ally and she grabs his leg, pulling and twisting up she knocks him off balance and pops to her feet, the lower half of her face a bloody mess she wraps her hands into Xavier’s hair and tosses him into the steel steps! She walks away for a moment and grabs the rainbow painted chains, returning to Xavier she wraps the chain around his wrist and the ring post, folding and wrapping the chains until Xavier’s hands are chained to the post and he dangles down the steel steps, barely looking with it.))
KV: this is not a position anyone wants to be in with Ally Morrow.
SG: You’ve got that right… Well.. Unless it were in the bedroom.
KV: SAMUEL!
SG: I’m just saying!!
((She then walks up and down the barrier for a moment as though choosing her weapon, she pauses in front of a fan with a grin and pulls a dark oak cane from behind the barrier, she swings it in her hand as she struts over to Xavier, rounding on him she slams the cane down on his head, she does so with such force the cane shatters on the bounce off from Xavier’s head as it hits the post.))
KV: This is a s good as over. Morrow needs to just end it!
SG: I think she is!
((Young’s head reverberates off the post and Ally jumps forward, ripping the chains away she lifts the almost dead weight of Xavier and rolls him under the bottom ropes before she rolls in behind him, hooking the leg and pinning him.))
1…
2…
3!!!
DING! DING! DING!
Jennifer Taylor: Your winner and STILL Anarchy Champion… ALLY MORROW!!!
((The official moves in to raise Ally’s hand and she shoves him away, rolling back out of the ring she moves behind the announcers and reappears with some battery operated hair clippers in her hand, she rolls back into the ring and grabs Xavier by the arms, she drags him into the corner, propping him up against the ringpost, she uses the ropes to support his arms. She takes a moment to wipe the blood from her own mouth and clean her hands off on Xavier’s chest, before flicking the clippers on.))
SG: Xavier is about to lose his hair! He’s lucky it isn’t his life!
KV: Poor Xavier...
((As she runs the clippers down the middle of his head, shaving his hair off, the fans boos turn to cheers and Ally gets to her feet, turning just in time to see Gavin slide into the ring, he starts yelling at Ally, grabbing the clippers from her hand he throws them to the floor outside and shakes his head. Ally gets back in his face and laughs slightly, mocking Gavin who clearly feels his mentor is being disrespected.))
KV: Gavin is here to save his mentor from embarrassment.
SG: The embarrassment is already done. Gavin needs to let her shave the rest of that hair off. Might as well since she just shaved it down the middle.
((Ally points at Xavier and then looks back at Gavin with a shrug, she half pouts her busted up lip at him and steps aside as though she is going to let Gavin check on Xavier, but then she changes her mind and steps back in his way, bitch slapping him so hard across the face that the echo carries through the crowd.))
SG: Ally just slapped the crap out of Gavin!
KV: This is about to get heated!!!
((Within a second Gavin charges Ally and the pair are trading blow for blow against the mat. Gavin gets on top of Ally and grinds his elbow into her mouth, Ally kicks up and manages to throw the weight over and gets on top of Gavin as she headbutts him hard, sitting back seeing stars a little herself, security arrive and break them up. Gavin is pulled from the ring and Ally kept inside in, but shoved into one corner as the pair yell at one another and medical staff are finally able to check on Xavier Young.))
KV: These two want to kill each other. Luckily they were pulled away.
SG: I don’t know how these two are going to be able to wait until Cold Dawn to get their hands on each other.
KV: Indeed. Well, let’s cut backstage!
((The scene cuts backstage to find Amber Richards, arms folded in Robb Hardy's makeshift office. Robb looks up at her and down at some papers before letting out a deep sigh.))
Robb Hardy: You're sure?...I mean I'll sign off cause it seems like it'll sell but he's your friend.
((Amber scoffs and unfolds her arms stepping forward putting her hands flat on his desk.))
Amber Richards: Aurora is my friend Robb. Friends don't talk shit. Friends don't disrespect you. Damon did both. So if I lose to Tyson tonight… I want him in a match...
Robb Hardy: Ok… sounds like a plan. I thought you hated those.
((Amber sighs and shakes her head.))
Amber Richards: No one likes a smart ass Robb...
((Amber shoots him a smile and backs up as Robb laughs to himself.))
Robb Hardy: I thought it was funny…
((Hardy shrugs his shoulders as the scene cuts.))
((The camera shoots to the back where Daniela Cabello stands with a microphone in hand.))
Daniela Cabello: Amazing #FSociety action thus far! But right now I am joined by the woman with more nicknames than Ally has wins, President Trump's #1 Princess, Sarah Selena Lacklan.
((The short woman in a massive black and red robe, her hood pulled up to hide most of her face, walks into the seen, a long black umbrella in her hand.))
Daniela Cabello: Thank you for joining me, Sarah.
Sarah Selena Lacklan: The pleasure is all yours, of course.
Daniela Cabello: Er...well...anyway...I am still waiting for a thank you from you.
((Sarah raises a perfectly shaped eyebrow.))
Sarah Selena Lacklan: Pardon?
Daniela Cabello: For making your debut match into a tag in the first place! The Blood Reavers are amazing!
((Sarah sighs and rolls her eyes.))
Sarah Selena Lacklan: I shall hold onto my offer of thanks until after she and I are the #FSociety Tag Team Champions. Which after tonight, shall be quite soon.
Daniela Cabello: You two seem to be somewhat on the same page. Was it easy for you two to be a team?
((Sarah’s ruby lips curl up into a smirk.))
Sarah Selena Lacklan: Hardly. But we have an accord, and our eyes are focused on what matters: She has the opportunity for gold...and I for my revolution. Rydell and Silver simply do not measure up. And I will raise the colors, unfurl the banner, unleash the black and red. Together...we are unstoppable.
((Daniela points down at the umbrella.))
Daniela Cabello: Nice to see you were prepared for the storm outside.
((Sarah raises the umbrella.))
Sarah Selena Lacklan: This? Oh...well...
((She studies it, her red eyes blazing.))
Sarah Selena Lacklan: This...calls out to me. Something about...piques...my interest.
((She smirks.))
Sarah Selena Lacklan: Sometimes the world says that what you feel is...wrong...but I say...burn that to ash. Burn the naysayers to ash. Burn them all...to ash.
((She looks back at Daniela.))
Sarah Selena Lacklan: Mind the flames.
((The scene cuts away and we go back to ringside.))
Match Two: Singles Match
Parker Wayde versus Adam Sanders
KV: Next up we have Parker versus Adam Sanders. Parker is coming off of a loss and Adam is coming off of a win. Does Adam have momentum?
SG: Absolutely not! Parker fought a killer in Zooey West-Jaa… Adam went up against an Ass!
KV: Whatever the case may be, I’m sure Parker has some added motivation tonight.
Jennifer Taylor: Coming to the ring first… Hailing from Winston-Salem, North Carolina and weighing in at 254 pounds… He IS the “Instant Impact”.... PARKER WAYDEEEEEEEE!
((All the lights in the arena go out, save one green spotlight aimed down at the middle of the stage. “Let’s Go” by Travis Barker begins to blare over the PA system and Parker Wayde rips the curtain to the side and steps out onto the stage. He stops for a moment in the spotlight and surveys the audience and their reaction to his presence. ))
SG: I’m putting my money on this guy! Look how big he is!
KV: Don’t ever count out the underdog though!
SG: I just did!
KV: Guess so.
Jennifer Taylor: His opponent… Hailing from Grand Rapids Michigan and weighing in at 210 pounds… ADAM SANDERS!!!”
(("Say Anything (Else)" by Cartel blares over the PA system and out walks Adam Sanders with a confident look on his face. The fans cheer him on, clearly they know who he is thanks to his associations with Kenzie and Adrien. Adam walks down the ramp and slaps hands with the fans before sliding into the ring.))
KV: Adam looks ready for business. The daunting task of fighting a man of Parker’s stature doesn’t seem to faze him.
SG: Well it should because Parker is as strong as an ox!
KV: I don’t deny Parker is strong but Adam makes up for that in his quickness and speed I’m sure.
SG: Every little fast person gets caught eventually and that will happen to Adam, mark my words.
DING! DING! DING!!!
((The match begins as Parker charges forward for Adam. Sanders is able to sidestep Wayde as he brings Parker down with a drop toe hold, sending Parker’s face flying into the top turnbuckle. Adam grabs Parker from behind and nails him with a powerful leaping neckbreaker. Adam stands up to his feet and plays off to the fans.))
SG: This Adam guy sucks!
KV: He’s having a good start here against Parker, I bet his friend Adrien helped him scout this one.
SG: I don’t care what Cochrane helped him with!
((Adam reaches down lifting Parker up, but Wayde pushes Adam back. Parker throws Adam back with a European Uppercut. Sanders stumbles back towards the ropes. Parker grabs Adam and whips him into the corner hard and Adam collides into it with a thud. Parker charges and spears Adam into the turnbuckle and Adam crashes to the ground.))
KV: Wow! What a powerhouse this Parker Wayde guy is!
SG: Some guy? Parker is a legend! You show him some respect!
KV: I know who he is, Samuel!
SG: Sure you do! Sure! I call bullshit!
((Adam is down face first on the mat as Parker gets back up. Adam slowly pushes up to his knees, and then his feet. Once up, he turns around to face Parker and just as he does, Parker takes him down with a bicycle kick.))
SG: Paydirt! That’s it!
KV: Adam might be in trouble!
1…
2…
KV: Kickout by Adam!
SG: Damn it! Give up kid!
((Kickout by Adam Sanders as he over exerts to push Parker off of him. Adam rolls to his side and grabs Parker in a side headlock. Parker tries to fight it, but he can’t get out of it until he uses his legs and bridges up, pressing Adam's shoulders down to the mat for a pin.))
1…
2…
KV: Adam releases his hold, thus breaking the pin Parker had on him!
SG: He almost made a rookie mistake. Color me surprised!
((Adam releases the side headlock and it breaks the pin attempt. Adam rolls over and pushes back up to his feet. Parker slowly gets up, and by the time he is upright, Adam Sanders hits a huge standing dropkick sending Wayde down to the mat. Adam, back to his feet, stands over Parker and raises his hands in the air to hype the crowd. Adam then does a standing shooting star press and pins Parker.))
1…
2....
SG: Parker kicks out!
KV: What a move by Adam though!
SG: It was okay!
KV: He did a shooting star press without using the top ropes!
SG: I’ve seen it before!
((Adam exhales deeply as he tries to remain focused. He pushes back up to his feet and slowly heads up the corner to the top turnbuckle. He looks down at Parker, steadying himself, and jumps off looking for a top rope shooting star press now but Parker manages to roll out of the way. Adam crashes down hard on the mat.))
KV: Adam crashed down hard but can Parker take advantage!
SG: I’m not sure, both of these guys look pretty spent right now and neither are getting up.
((Both men are down on the mat as the referee makes the ten count.))
ONE
TWO
THREE
FOUR
KV: Parker is beginning to stir!
((Parker is slowly up to his feet.))
FIVE
SIX
SG: Looks like Adam is getting up too.
((Parker goes to clothesline Adam but Adam ducks it. Adam shoots him off into the ropes as Adam charges forward with a flying clothesline, taking Wayde down to the mat.))
KV: Adam is back in control!
SG: Boo! Come on Parker!!
((Parker gets back up to his feet and Adam goes for a superkick but Parker ducks under it. Parker drives a knee into Adam’s gut which causes him to keel over. Parker then grabs Adam and nails him with a Cross-legged fisherman driver before going for the pin.))
SG: Critical Mass! That’s it!
KV: Adam put up a fight but the veteran Parker looks to be too much! He’s going for the pin!
1…
2…
3!!!
DING! DING! DING!!!
Jennifer Taylor: Here is your winner… PARKER WAYDE!!!!
((“Let’s Go” blares over the PA system and the referee raises Parker’s hand in the air in victory.))
SG: Parker recovers from his loss last week. What a night for him.
KV: Adam put up one hell of a fight but he just came up short!
SG: That’s because he is short! ZING!
KV: You’re ridiculous.
((The scene cuts to a video as the opening bars of “Surprise! You're Dead!” by Revocation begins to play. Snippets of random match footage of a strange looking man taking on several different Japanese and Mexican competitors on a recent tour are flashing by in rhythm with the music.))
~~SURPRISE! YOU'RE DEAD!~~
((The man points to the crowd in the video, mouthing the phrase and they respond by chiming in with the 'YOU'RE DEAD!' parts. It's quite popular in Japan. There is even a section of the audience who are holding up the letters to make up the phrase on oversized pieces of paper.))
~~AH-HAHA!!~~
((The man is backstage, laughing while leaning against a brick wall. The producer of the video package has synced it up perfectly!))
~~OPEN YOUR EYES!!~~
((The clip changes to the strange man poking a masked opponent in the eyes and then delivering a HARD jumping outside crescent kick.))
Strange Man: I suppose you're wondering who I am and why you're seeing all of this…
((The clip shows the crowd on its feet as the man picks up a steel chair and executes a picture perfect running shooting star press while clutching the chair. The whole clip slows down to super slow motion as it captures the arc of the aerial move and the true beauty of it being executed, no launching arms required. His strength appears to be almost entirely within his legs!))
Strange Man: Well allow me to introduce myself...
((Same clip, regular speed. You get to hear the loud CLANG of the steel chair as it smashes into the skull of the prone Mexican wrestler taking this move.))
Commentator in video: OH MY GOD WULF ERIKSON WITH HIS SILVER BULLET SPECIAL!!!
Wulf Erikson: I'm Wulf Erikson. I'm new here, and it is my prime objective to blow every single possible misconception that you ever had about the smaller breed of wrestler to smithereens.
((A series of clips where Wulf executes his 'At Wit's End' finisher on several different opponents for the cover.))
Wulf Erikson: As you can see, I've been more than successful lately...
((An array of Wulf Erikson's famed cartwheel enziguri kicks are shown.))
Commentator in video: Nobody can hit an enziguri kick as hard or as seamlessly as this man! Easily the most devastating in the business!
((More clips play as Wulf continues to talk... this time displaying his obvious aerial prowess with moonsaults, suicide dives, hurricanranas and other likely suspects.))
Wulf Erikson: But don't let that be your evidence that a new era in junior heavyweight dominance is upon us. Come and see for yourself. I'm sure that I can bring you to your feet as opponent...
((A clip of some poor sap receiving an At Wit's End onto a steel chair is seen.))
Wulf Erikson: After opponent...
((Another Silver Bullet Special.))
Wulf Erikso: After opponent…
((Finally a clip of Wulf Erikson clutching a chair as he takes a running start, springboards off the top rope and hits a spinning Fosberry flop suicide dive to four other guys in a 5-Way contest is shown. Amazingly, Wulf swings and he nails one of them with the chair on the way down!))
Wulf Erikson: Falls prey to this junior heavyweight juggernaut from hell!
((The clips cease, the scene fades to black, and then opens up on the strange image of a sloppily worn tuxedoed Wulf Erikson sitting at an otherwise empty poker table in a downtown casino holding a flaming King of Clubs, lighting a cigar from it.))
Wulf Erikson: Because at the end of the day... this guy has the skill, and is just enough of that maddening lateral thinking quasi-genius to MAKE IT HAPPEN. Hold on tight, #FSociety faithful... you're in for one mother[BLEEP!] of a ride!!
((With that, Wulf throws the flaming card on the table and walks away. The scene fades out on the poker table felt surface catching alight.))
KV: Time for our Four Way Elimination match!
SG: Four debuting guys going against one another. Should be fun!
((The soft guitar riffs of Trivium's "Down From the Sky" echo softly throughout the arena. As the song picks up pace, Luke Moore steps out from the backstage area with a simple black fedora hat adorning his head and a pair of baggy black pants held up by a black belt with silver rings decorating it. He pauses momentarily to soak in the moment and the reaction from the fans before bouncing on his toes and sprinting the rest of the way to ringside. Once there he slides on his stomach into the ring and pops up to his feet, arms spread wide as he spins in a quick circle before pulling both arms in with his thumbs pointing at his chest before making a slashing motion across his throat with his right hand, scowling at the front row of fans before him. After a few moments of scowling at the pass, he makes his way to his own corner where he begins to go through his warm up.))
KV: Lucas Moore is the first one out.
SG: Next up is Leon Black!
((Lucas Moore reaches the ring as Leon Black’s music hits, as Black steps out on stage, there is a commotion in the crowd, the camera spin around to show a figure dressed all in black in a clown mask jumping the barrier. Before Moore has time to react the figure slides into the ring, a flash of bronze on their hand as they swing a hard right, clocking Moore on the jaw with some brass knucks, Moore is knocked clean off his feet and the masked assailant is quick to take their boots to him.))
KV: Clowns appearance! What the hell?
SG: This is awesome! I love the clowns!
((Leon Black looks down at the ring and appears to shake his head, as though he is refusing to go down to the ring whilst one of the Clown Masked attackers is taking it to Moore, all of a sudden there is a huge pop from the crowd and Tyson Gregory runs out onto the stage, he smiles at Leon Black, before suddenly charging him, a hard shoulder to the gut precedes Gregory tossing Black off the stage and through a production table between the stage and the barrier!))
KV: Tyson Gregory just killed Leon Black! Is he working with Chris Night and the clowns? What the hell?
SG: I don’t know but this is insane! I love it! Tyson is awesome! All hail the champ!
((Tyson then stands on the stage and folds his arms over his chest as the camera pans back down to the ring where the ‘Clown’ is pulling Lucas up, only to toss him between the top and middle ropes and colliding him with the barrier before he hits the floor. The masked attacker then turns and leans through the ropes to snatch a mic from a production assistant, turning on their heels to stand in the middle of the ring.))
KV: Who could this be?
SG: They’re tall but they have the build if a wo-
((Before Samuel finishes his line. The clown reaches up and rips off their mask to reveal Ally Morrow who starts to laugh as the crowd boos aggressively, she mocks them a little, wringing her hands under her eyes pretending to cry, before raising the mic to her lips with a smirk.))
Ally Morrow: Oh don’t go getting any ideas… If I was the mystery masked assailant don’t you think at least a handful of you bumbling morons would have noticed these?
((She runs a hand under her chest, clearly showing off her boobs with a small laugh as she shakes her head.))
Ally Morrow: I’m not Night’s secret mercenary and Tyson isn’t turning his back on his dear old buddy Robb Hardy…
((Ally waggles her finger ‘no’ with another laugh.))
Ally Morrow: In fact, it doesn’t fucking matter if you’re TeamNight, TeamHardy or just too damn ignorant to have any idea what in the hell is going on - because the only thing any of you, both the fans and the morons in back, should be concerned about is YOUR FSociety Champion… and ME.
((She points at herself with a smirk, turning to look up the ramp at Tyson now she winks at him and he smirks, winking back.))
Ally Morrow: We are the single most dominant force in FSociety, we have proven it time and time again; Championship defenses, tag matches, awards… You name it we have taken, beaten, won and clean swept every single thing put before us and you best fucking believe that isn’t going to change any time soon!
((Ally walks to the ropes, leaning on them slightly as she keeps her eyes on Tyson now.))
Ally Morrow: When I joined the company, I did so with one simple message and that was, either you’re Team TYSON or you’re fucked and well… Most of you have been outright dumb enough to choose the latter option… What happened here tonight? That is just a taster of things to come… Playtime is officially over, the circus is leaving town… This is OUR fucking ring and not a single person back there, can do a damn thing to change that.
((Ally tosses the mic to the mat and slips out of the ring, she skips up the ramp mocking the fans, when she reaches the stage, she jumps into Tyson’s arms and the pair embrace, sharing a passionate, drawn out kiss before they then turn and look down at Black with a laugh and then, hand in hand, disappear behind the curtain.))
KV: Well.. That was interesting.
SG: It was…. I think our four way just turned into a singles match.
KV: I believe that you’re right.
Match Three: Singles Match
Benjamin Haskell versus Aaron “Big” Diehl
KV: Well… Looks like we have Benjamin hasell versus Aaron Diehl.
SG: This should be interesting! Probably not as interesting as Ally and Tyson just were but interesting!
Jennifer Taylor: Coming to the ring first… Hailing from Morrison Hotel and weighing in at 216 pounds… BENJAMIN HASKELLLL!!!!!
((Barely a few seconds had passed once “Five to One” played throughout the venue and Ben Haskell had emerged from the back. With a huge grin planted on his face, he proceeds to make his way down the ramp, slapping hands with as many fans as possible. Sliding into the ring, he immediately climbs the turnbuckle, soaking up the reaction and twisting his moustache some, before hopping down and waiting for the match to begin.))
KV: The debuting Benjamin Haskell looks ready for this one.
SG: I like this guy’s look.
KV: He does have a cool mustache.
SG: Cool? It’s glorious, Khristina! Come on!
Jennifer Taylor: His opponent… Hailing from Bloomington, Idaho and weighing in at 265 pounds… AARON “BIG” DIEHL!!!!
((After the opening chords to his theme play Aaron comes onto the stage. He puts his hands on his hips and nods approvingly at the crowd. He then strides to the ring, slapping any outstretched hands along the way. When he reaches the ring apron he will pull himself up by the second rope, and then slingshot himself off the bottom over the top. After patting himself on the back Barry Horowitz style for such a display of agility Diehl will make a circuit around the ring looking out and pointing to the fans before moving to his corner where he will do some last minute stretches.))
KV: This guy is big!
SG: That’s what she said!
KV: You would…
SG: I’m just sayin’, I hear that all the time.
KV: Anyone who brags about it is obviously small!
SG: What the? You know I’m black, right?
DING! DING! DING!!!
((The bell sounds and Haskell attacks Aaron right away, the smaller man throwing fists with all his might surprising the crowd with his willingness to get down and dirty. Many in the crowd warming to him right away with his plucky nature. He hits a few hard rights backing the much bigger man into the corner. He gets pushed back by the referee after a count of four. The crowd chanting “let them fight” loudly at the referee who seems to ignore them))
KV: Man this was a fast start.
SG: No kidding, this Ben Haskell has balls.
KV: You don’t just go up to a 6’5 man and punch him in the mouth when you’re 5’11…
SG: He does….
((Aaron comes out pushing the referee out of the way going for a clothesline. Haskell ducks it and hits the ropes leaping in the air hitting a european uppercut taking Aaron down who shakes it off and tries to get up, Haskell runs in grabbing Aarons head drilling him with a DDT, he goes for the pin.))
1...
2…
KV: THR-NO! Aaron kicks out!
SG: Boring! Just lose!
((Aaron kicks out and throws Haskell off. He gets up to a vertical base and stumbles to the corner. Haskell runs in and hits a arcing kick to the face of Aaron sending him stumbling across the ring holding the ropes, as nhe gets to another corner Haskell hits the light my fire double palm strikes.))
SG: Oh, right in the breadbasket!
KV: That shot to the stomach must have hurt…
SG: This Haskell guy is awesome…
((Aaron stumbled out holding his stomach right into a spinning backfist that seems to drop him to a knee, Haskell spins and hits the number 27 rolling elbow, Aaron goes down and Haskell pins.))
1…
2...
3!!!
DING! DING! DING!!!
Jennifer Taylor: Here is your winner… BENJAMIN HASKELL!!!!
((“Five to One” blares over the PA system and Benjamin has his hand raised in the air.))
KV: Great debut by Benjamin!
SG: It’s too bad this four way didn’t happen but hey, Benjamin would’ve pinned those others guys as well I’m sure!
KV: Guess we’ll never know!
((The scene shifts to the locker room of Damon Graves, where the former Tag Team Champion can be seen in his ring gear, pacing back and forth with an annoyed look on his face. He looks up, notices the camera, and stares stone-faced into the lens.))
Damon: Grapple Connection, you’ve been awful quiet ever since this match was signed. Whether that’s due to your ego or it’s due to fear, I couldn’t care less. To me, it’s a blatant show of disrespect, and if you want to be that fucking stupid, then I’ll take that as an invitation to knock your teeth through the back of your skulls!
Will I let Abigail Vorhees have her fun tonight?
((Damon ponders this for a moment.))
Damon: Don’t see why I can’t share in the fun. After all, she happens to be on the right side of the equation, at least for the time being, so she gets a pass. Cooper, Skinner, neither of you are going to be that lucky.
((Damon steps forward until his face fills the screen.))
Damon: Tonight is a turning point. You won’t be seeing the smart-mouthed fool in that ring. You’ll be seeing a determined, relentless hellion out there. And the rest of #FSociety had best pay attention…
((Damon places his hand over the camera lens and gives a hearty shove before leaving. The scene shifts back to ringside.))
((The scene cuts to El Hijo Senor del Ass checking out the catering table. As he examines up and down the table, he shakes his head.))
El Hijo: What’s a guy gotta do to get horchata around here?
((A voice is heard from behind.))
Voice: I’ve got something you can taste.
((El Hijo turns around and is met by a chairshot to the skull. El Hijo collapses to the ground and it’s Dean Judas standing over him. Dean slams the chair over El Hijo’s chest before picking him up and then powerbombing him through the table. Dean stands over Ass and points at him.))
Dean Judas: This ends in two weeks. You and me… Cold Dawn… And I’m sending you straight to hell.
((Dean begins to walk away before turning back and smirking.))
Dean Judas: Oh… And good luck with your match tonight.
((Dean whistles as he walks away from the scene and it cuts away.))
Match Four: Tag Team Match
Damon Graves/Abagail Vorhees versus The Grapple Connection (Austin Cooper/Bart Skinner)
KV: Time for a tag match!
SG: TAG MATCH PLAYA!
KV: The unlikely pairing of Damon Graves and Abagail Vorhees taking on The Grapple Connection!
SG: Should be exciting... NOT! SNOOZE FEST!
KV: Why?
SG: Because it's the Grapple Connection. LAME!
Jennifer Taylor: Coming to the ring... weighing in at 218 pounds from Inglewood, California.... DAMON GRAVESSSS!!!
((As "Dirty Angel" by Voodoo Johnson begins to play over the sound system, Damon Graves steps out onto the stage holding onto his #FSociety Tag Team Championship. The camera pulls in tight on his face, where he cocks his head to the left, raises his right eyebrow, and brings his fists together, knuckles out, so that the letters tattooed on his fingers are prominently display: STAY DOWN. Bringing his hands down, he takes his time getting to the ring. Once he gets there he wraps his arm around the ring post, with his elbow resting on the bottom turnbuckle. After scanning the crowd, he rolls under the bottom rope to enter the ring.))
SG: Love this guy! He’s looking to rebound from a loss two weeks ago while Aurora gets a much deserved night off.
LV: It’s going to be weird seeing Damon team with someone else.
SG: True but he’ll do fine! He’s Damon Graves!
Jennifer Taylor: Coming to the ring... weighing in at 165 pounds from The Other Side of Reality... ABAGAIL "THE BLACKHEART" VORHEES!!!
(("My Leftovers" by Porcelain and The Tramps starts playing as strobe lights flash on the stage and red circles roam over the crowd. "The Blackheart" Abagail Vorhees walks out, a look of determination on her face. She starts the slow march to the ring and hops up on the apron, does a slow bend over the middle rope and then steps into the ring. She walks to a corner and climbs the turnbuckle and stares at the crowd with a smirk as the build up to the chorus plays.))
SG: Abagail is also looking to rebound from a loss. She looks confident though.
KV: Yeah she does. The Grapple Connection have a rough night ahead I feel like.
SG: You’re right about that!
Jennifer: Their opponents… They are Adam Cooper and Bart Skinner… THE GRAPPLE CONNECTIONNNNN!
(("Threshhold" plays and out walks the Grapple Connection, led to the ring the lovely "Luscious" Lisa. They walk to the ring, where Lisa holds open the ropes for them, they enter, climb opposite turnbuckles and taunt the fans.))
SG: These guys look like they not only lost their last couple matches but they lost their marbles!
KV: Don’t be so mean! But it looks like the match is about to start!
DING! DING! DING!!!
((Abagail starts the match as Damon just shrugs and gets on the apron. Bart does the same as Austin rolls his wrists in his hands. He laughs looking at Abagail and her smaller frame before putting his hand up for a roman knuckle lock to make fun of her height, Abagail goes to grab it but realises what he’s doing and stomps on Austin's foot he bends down and Abagail unleashes a flurry of forearm shots sending Austin back into the ropes, she whips him across the ring but Austin reverses it sending abagail into the ropes. She stops as Austin ducks for a back body drop and kicks him in the chest, Austin stands up and Abagail grabs his shoulders hitting a snap hurricanrana sending Austin across the ring, as he rolls to his feet Abagail comes in with an enzuigiri sending him down ))
KV: Man this was a fast start.
SG: No kidding, what a kick from Abagail
KV: She’s one tough cookie
SG: Agreed, but can she keep it up?
((Abagail pops up and calls for Austin to get to his feet, he then tags in Bart, Abagail shakes her head and mouths the word “pussy” before Damon reaches over and tags himself in. Abagail sighs and just shrugs. Bart runs at Damon with a clothesline, he ducks and unloads with some hard shots to the ribs, Bart tries to cover up as he gets to the corner, Damon slams in a few hard side knees before grabbing the top rope and stomping Bart down, Damon hits the opposite ropes and comes in with a facewash kick.))
KV: What a kick by Damon!
SG: He seriously means business.
KV: He does seem like he has something to prove.
((Damon steps out of the corner and turns blasting Austin Cooper in the face Bart walks right into a hard european uppercut and Damon tags Abagail back in, they hit a double suplex before Abagail goes for the pin.))
1…
2...
((Bart kicks out. Abagail then hits a standing side kick to a kneeling bart, he lays back and as Abagail goes in for the kill he grabs her and pulls her into the turnbuckle before tagging in Austin.))
SG: Bart made the tag.
KV: Abagail hit the middle turnbuckle face first.
SG: She’s up though and stumbling to Damon!
((She tags in Damon who gets in the ring and blocks a right hand from Austin hitting one of his own, he fights Austin into the corner and stomps him down before running over and hitting bart off the apron. Damon turns and pulls Austin into a reverse STO, he pops to his feet and locks in the Luck Runs Out, as Austin struggles in the hold Bart tries to get in, Abagail comes flying across with a hard knee to Bart's face just as Austin taps.))
KV: They win by submission!
SG: YESS! DAMON WINS IT!
DING! DING! DING!!!
Jennifer Taylor: Yours winner by submission… DAMON GRAVES AND ABAGAIL VOORHEES!!!
((The referee raises the two competitors hands in the air and the two give each other a nod of respect.))
KV: What a match! Let’s cut backstage!
SG: Good idea!
((The scene cuts backstage as Anastasia Hayden makes her way towards the entrance area. Ana is cut off by Cass Baumer who has a microphone in hand.))
Cass Baumer: Anastasia! Before your match, I’m just wondering if you saw what happened between Dean Judas and El Hijo? Have you heard anything on his condition?
((Ana has a serious look on her face as she shrugs her shoulders.))
Anastasia Hayden: I’m not worried about his condition or what happened between him and Dean Judas earlier. All I care about is going out there and putting the rest of #FSociety on notice. It doesn’t matter to me if Juan is 100% or not… Simply put, I’m going to make an example out of him.
((Cass is surprised by what Ana is saying.))
Cass Baumer: Really? It doesn’t matter to you if El Hijo is hurt? Are you saying you want to hurt him even more?
Anastasia Hayden: What the fuck do you think I’m saying? I’ll end his career to prove a point if I have to. Now excuse me, I’ve got a match.
((Ana shoulder checks Cass and walks away. Cass holds her shoulder as she watches Ana leave.))
Cass Baumer: Well that was rude.
Match Five: Non-Title Singles Match
Anastasia Hayden versus El Hijo Senor del Ass
KV: Ana looked pretty serious.
SG: She doesn’t give a damn what happened to Ass! I dig it!
KV: She really means business.
Jennifer Taylor: Coming to the ring first… weighing in at 128 pounds from Steele, North Dakota… the #FSOCIETY HIGH ROLLER CHAMPION... ANASTASIA HAYDENNN!!!
((The distorted and glitched opening of "Dad’s Garage" by Nuclear Moms starts playing. The guitar builds up and once the drums hit, Anastasia Hayden steps out from the curtains, her mouth guard hanging from her mouth and the High Roller Championship over her shoulder. The boos begin and Ana isn’t bothered as she stands at the top of the entrance for a few seconds before she pops the mouth guard back in and starts making her way down to the ring. Ana leaps up to the ring apron and climbs through the ropes, heading over to a free corner and resting against it. She pops her mouth guard back out, chewing on it in the process, and waits for the match to begin.))
Jennifer Taylor: Her Opponent... from Cimarron New Mexico, weighing in at 180lbs… El Hijo del Senor Ass!!!
((A familiar beat begins to blare over the PA system, consisting of the unlikely combination of an 808 drum and a violin. A whisper is then heard in the background: “hay hay…hay hay…” and is then immediately followed by the voice of Juvenile.))
~~Cash Money takin’ ova fo’ the ’99-2000!~~
((With this kick-in for “Back That Azz Up,” none other than El Hijo del Senor Ass comes out from behind the curtain looking pretty beat up. He limps his way down the ring but tries to look as strong as he can the entire time.))
KV: El Hijo doesn’t look right.
SG: Of course not! He just took a beating from Dean Judas!
KV: And now he’s gotta fight this match against Ana.
SG: And you can just see Ana is licking her chops.
((El Hijo gingerly slides into the ring and gets into his corner as the High Roller Champion glares at him from across the ring.))
KV: This one is about to start!
SG: And I have a feeling that it’s going to end quicker than it started.
DING! DING! DING!!!
((Ana charges at El Hijo and goes for a clothesline but he sidesteps out of the way. Ana turns around and El Hijo catches her with a superkick.))
KV: Woah!
SG: A surprisingly lucky superkick.
((El Hijo goes for the cover.))
1…
2…
KV: THR-NO! Ana kicks!
SG: Of course she does! She’s the champ!
((El Hijo picks Anastasia up from the mat and sets her up for a suplex. He goes to lift her up but he doesn’t have enough strength from the beating her took earlier in the night. Ana shoves El Hijo off and steps back. El Hijo charges her and Ana drops him with a dropkick.))
SG: Anastasia has taken control! Yes!
KV: El Hijo just didn’t have the strength to hit that suplex, he’s too hurt.
((El Hijo slowly gets to his feet but Ana takes him down with a charging bicycle kick. El Hijo falls to his knees and is dazed. Ana steps back and then charges him again, nailing a hurricanrana driver. She goes for the cover.))
1…
2…
KV: THR-NO!!! El Hijo somehow kicks out!
SG: He needs to give it up!
KV: He’s a fighter, what do you expect?
((Ana stays focused as she gets up and steps back into the corner. She waits for El Hijo to start getting up. As El Hijo gets to his knees, Ana charges him and nails a sliding forearm smash.))
KV: HUMAN TARGET PRACTICE!
SG: And that’s all she wrote.
KV: Damn that echoed throughout the arena.
((Ana goes for the cover.))
1…
2…
3!!!
DING! DING! DING!
Jennifer Taylor: Here is your winner… Anastasia Hayden!!!
((“Dad’s Garage blares over the PA system as the referee hands Anastasia her title. She rolls out of the ring and holds up her belt with a grin on her face as she walks backwards up the ramp.))
SG: What a win by Anastasia Hayden! She showed her superiority!
KV: To be fair, Ass wasn’t 100%!
SG: Who cares! He came out for the match and he got his ass kicked!
KV: I guess. Let’s cut backstage.
((Once the action of the last exciting match slowed to a crawl, the camera cut to something different. This camera's quality wasn't as high definition as people were used to, but needless to say, it steadily scanned the backstage halls with a purpose. The sound of wrestling boots clicking and clacking followed in its footsteps and as it finally settled on a single door with a gold plaque that read 'Chris Night' in the center, things were starting to make a little more sense.))
((With a flick of the wrist, the camera phone turned and now Kenzie Rydell stood in front of that door with a serious expression adorning her soft features.))
Kenzie Rydell: Let's skip the crap and get right to the point, guys.
((With that, Kenzie reached out and grabbed the silver knob leading to Chris Night's office. She shook it up and down a couple times. No luck. It wouldn't budge.))
Kenzie Rydell: I have a match tonight. It's an important match. Shelley Silver and I versus Melissa Reeves and Sarah Lacklan for the spot as the new tag team number one contenders. Can you take a guess as to who made that match? Huh?
((She shook her head back and forth, almost like she was responding to the audience's guess.))
Kenzie Rydell: It wasn't Chris Night, I can tell you that much, ladies and gentleman. The man who gave me a second chance and the man who signed me to this company won't even let me into his office anymore just so we could have a civil talk, much less give me a number one contendership match. No. He'd rather lock me out.
((There were no jokes. There were no smiles. This was a different side of Kenzie, and as she gave the people watching yet another example, she blatantly knocked on the door in hopes of a response. Nothing. In the silence, a voice that we could only assume to be Chris Night could be heard semi-audibly through the door in a muffled tone, more than likely talking to someone on the phone.))
Kenzie Rydell: He obviously hears me. He knows enough to understand that I'm the one on the other side of the door waiting for answers about why he decided to dress up in a damn clown getup and attack someone he considers family. He knows I openly challenged his wife Mikayla Night to a match after she threatened to 'shut me up.' Of course, he doesn't take me seriously. Not yet.
((She knocked at the door a little louder.))
Kenzie Rydell: If I have to beat Melissa and Lacklan, become one-half of the tag team champions, and then take down his wife in a match just to get him to tell me the truth? I will.
((She stepped away from the door, casually leaning against the opposite wall with her hazel eyes focused on the camera lens while the fluorescent lights beamed down on her.))
Kenzie Rydell: Sure, I get that some of you might repeat his phrase. You might say I don't deserve to know why, or you might say that it doesn't really matter. Maybe I should just ignore it, be like everybody else until he finally decides to take it a step too far.
((Sarcasm dripped from her lips.))
Kenzie Rydell: Maybe I should just let him make #FSociety his playground. Yeah! That'd be good, right? It'd be absolutely terrific when he starts sticking his goons on every single person in the locker room he dislikes without even saying a reason, wouldn't it? One after one, victim after victim falls and the next thing you know, without one good person who decides to actually stand up and do something before things get out of control...
((She looks down at her boots and then back at the camera.))
Kenzie Rydell: #FSociety Anarchy will descend into a constant state of— Well, you know.
((With that, she spots Shelley Silver strolling down the hallway. Chasing her with the phone still in hand, the camera cuts off as Kenzie greets her tag team partner for the night with a casual smile.))
((The scene cuts backstage to Gavin Grimes sitting down in his locker room and he’s putting on his in-ring gloves. Gavin looks up at the camera and has a serious look on his eyes.))
Gavin Grimes: A lot of back and forth was said between Zooey and I this last week. The time for talk is over and I know that she’s going to give me the fight of her life. I know that if I make one wrong move, she could take my head off and end my streak. I know that with one kick, I could be done for.
((Gavin stands up and stares into the camera.))
Gavin Grimes: But I also know that nobody fights harder than I do. I know that I never, ever give up. I know that I’m fighting to prove a point tonight.
((He sighs and shakes his head.))
Gavin Grimes: Ally Morrow, keep an eye on my match with Zooey tonight. Just like I’m going to beat her, I’m going to beat you at Cold Dawn in two weeks and take that Anarchy Championship away from you. I’m going to make you pay for what you did to Xavier tonight. I’m going to make you pay for making false threats towards my sister. But tonight… Tonight I focus on Zooey. Tonight I show the world why I’m still one of the best to lace up my shoes and step into that ring. Tonight, I dedicate this match to you, Allyson.
((He grins as he pauses and stares into the camera.))
Gavin Grimes: Why? Because it’s going to be a taste of what you’re in for.
((He nods and the scene cuts away.
Match Six: Tag Match
Winners Receive Tag Titles Shot
Kenzie Rydell/Shelley Silver versus Melissa Reeves/Sarah Selena Lacklan
Jennifer Taylor: Coming to the ring first… weighing in at 136 pounds and hailing from San Jose, California… KENZIEEEEE RYDELLLL!!!
((Once distorted noises hit the PA system, the lights flicker. Darkness envelops the arena aside for a few rogue spotlights cast over the enthusiastic crowd. Every pair of eyes gaze towards the stage while the heavy guitar of "Break Out" by The Letter Black underscores the emotion throughout the building. Once the inspirational voices finally join the rhythmic drum beats and the shredding guitar, the crowd erupts as Kenzie Rydell walks out onto the stage with a wistful smile on her face.))
KV: Here comes Kenzie Rydell!
SG: Boo!
KV: What?
SG: I don’t know, I just have the urge to boo whenever I see Kenzie.
KV: You’re so rude.
((Standing on the stage wearing an open bomber jacket over her ring gear, she takes a few short moments to bask in the atmosphere. Fixing her stance, she straightens her back and swings her hips to the side. With a simple smirk, she exudes as much confidence as she can, bright hazel hues scanning across all the people in attendance tonight. Visage set towards the ring ahead, she walks forward, her stride strong as ever. Looking to her side, she points towards the cheap seats, letting their cheers rain down as she nears the ring with every step.))
((A brief weary expression crosses her features once she stops in her tracks, standing at the bottom of the aisle. With a deep breath, she takes her time walking towards the steel steps. One after the other, she shoots the crowd another proud grin, listening to them making their voices heard as she reaches the top of the steps. The young Muay Thai specialist walks across the apron, her palm clutching the top rope until she gets to the middle. Turning to face the crowd towards the stage, she spreads her arms like a phoenix and rests her elbows on the top rope, the sides of her mouth curling upward yet again as she hears the crowd's reaction intensify. Turning around, she climbs over the second rope and enters the ring, spinning a couple of times in one graceful movement before lifting her arms for the crowd's approval. Heading towards her corner, she takes off her jacket and gives it to someone outside the ring. Back in her corner, she bounces back and forth on the heels of her boots, preparing herself while the song fades into audio obscurity.))
KV: Kenzie looks ready for this one! You can see it in her eyes. She wants to prove a point.
SG: I can’t see anything because I’m looking at my phone. But yeah, whatever.
(("I Am the Fire" by Halestorm blares over the PA system and Shelley Silver walks out onto the stage with her manager, Sloane Cameron, by her side. She grins with a nod before the ring announcer introduces her to the audience.))
Jennifer Taylor: And her partner, from Seattle, Washington. She is the leader of the Raindrops… Shelley Silver!
((She makes her way down to the ring, stopping to take selfies and high-five fans. After making her way around the ring, she walks up the stairs and wipes her boots off before climbing between the bottom and middle rope. Once in the ring she bounces off the ropes a bit and loosens herself up as she prepares herself for the match.))
SG: I’m watching now because Shelley Silver is HAWT!
KV: Of course…
SG: She’s pretty experienced in the ring too! I’d look out for her tonight.
Jennifer Taylor: And their opponents… weighing in at 130 pounds from Sydney, Australia… MELISSA REEVESSS!!!
((As the opening to Killswitch Engage's “No End in Sight” plays, Melissa Reeves appears from behind the curtain. Pausing to look out at her fans, she raises her hands up and down, motioning to the fans to get pumped. She moves down the few steps and then heads toward the ring, slapping her hands against those held out by the fans in attendance. Melissa reaches the ring steps and climbs, taking hold of the ring post. She stops and looks out to the crowd, waving her arms up and down again. Entering the ring between the top and second rope, the young lady moves to the nearest corner, which she leans her back against.))
SG: Speaking of hot…
KV: Mel is also quite capable in the ring. She’s formed an unlikely alliance with Sarah Lackland.
SG: It’s a forced alliance! But they’ve managed to work well together.
Jennifer Taylor: And her partner… weighing in at 140 pounds from Lacklanland… “THE BLOOD PRINCESS”… SARAH SELENA LACKLANNN!!!
((The lights go out as a red spotlight flashes down on the entrance area. Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata begins to play over the PA system and Sarah Selena Lacklan steps out wearing a hooded robe. When she comes to the ring, she climbs the top rope, throws back her hood, and spews Red Mist into the air. She then looks around the arena, hands off her robe, and waits for the match to begin.))
SG: Lacklan is weird! But a hot weird! I can’t explain it!
KV: What do you mean?
SG: I just said I can’t explain it! Damn it, don’t you ever listen?
KV: It looks like two friends, Kenzie Rydell and Melissa Reeves, are going to be starting this one off.
SG: Should be an interesting start then.
((The match begins as Kenzie and Melissa get into a classic collar and elbow lock up. Melissa Reeves manages to whip around the back of Kenzie and grabs her into a sleeper hold. Kenzie fights through it and reaches back grabbing the hair of Melissa and yanks her down. Melissa is down into a seated position now and Kenzie runs towards the ropes and bounces off of them. She comes back and hits Melissa with a shining wizard. Kenzie goes for the quick cover.))
1...
KV: Melissa kicks out before the two count.
SG: Way too early to go for a pinfall.
KV: Those Shining Wizard moves can be brutal but Melissa powered through after one anyway, so you’re right about that.
((Melissa powers out of the pin and throws Rydell off of her. Reeves kips up to her feet and quickly sends a kick to the gut of Rydell. Mel then grabs the head of Kenzie and hits a flowing DDT. Melissa quickly drops to her knees and hooks one leg of Kenzie for the cover.))
1…
2…
SG: THR-NO! Kenzie kicks out!
KV: What a counter and then flowing DDT by Melissa though!
SG: She probably knows a lot about Kenzie from their friendship, so it’s no surprise that she countered her.
((Melissa heads up to her feet, and pulls Kenzie up with her. Kenzie manages to push off and hits a step up enziguri. This causes Reeves to stumble back and Kenzie charges again, nailing a savate kick. She wastes little time as she goes for another cover.))
1…
2…
SG: NOPE! Reeves kicks out.
KV: What a back and forth match so far.
SG: I bet these two need to get a tag in soon to their fresh partners.
((Kenzie picks Reeves up off of the canvas and goes to set her up for a suplex. Reeves shoves Kenzie off before throwing a hard elbow into her face. Kenzie shakes off the cobwebs and as Reeves goes to elbow Kenzie in the face again, Kenzie ducks under it. Kenzie then flips back and nails a Pele kick. Melissa stumbles back and Kenzie hits the ropes. Kenzie leaps up and goes for a crossbody splash but Mel catches her. Mel then nails an exploder suplex on Kenzie and the two women lie down on the mat in exhaustion.))
SG: What a counter by Reeves!
KV: Both of these women have given their all so far! They are both down and the referee is beginning to count.
ONE
TWO
THREE
KV: Both Kenzie and Melissa are crawling towards their corners.
FOUR
FIVE
SIX
SG: Almost there for Reeves!
SEVEN
KV: Same for Kenzie!!
EIGHT
((Reeves tags in Lacklan and Kenzie tags in Shelley.))
KV: HERE WE GO!
((Shelley and Sarah meet in the center of the ring and start delivering punches to each other. Eventually Shelley gets the advantage with a knee to Lacklan’s gut. Shelley then grabs Lacklan by the head, spins her around and nails a neckbreaker. Shelley goes for the cover.))
1…
2…
KV: Nope! Lacklan kicks!
SG: Too early for a pin on Sarah.
((Shelley gets up and stalks Lacklan. As Lacklan gets to her knees, Shelley charges her and leaps up, wrapping her legs around Sarah’s neck and driving her head into the mat, nailing a Hurricanrana Driver. Shelley goes for the cover.))
1…
2…
KV: Another kickout by Lacklan!
SG: What a move by Shelley though! That hurricanrana driver is brutal.
KV: Lacklan didn’t want to stay down though.
((Shelley drags Lacklan into her corner and tags Kenzie back in. The two pick Lacklan up and deliver a double suplex to her. Shelley retreats back into her corner and Kenzie goes for the cover.))
1…
2…
SG: Reeves breaks it up!
KV: She just saved the match!
((The referee instructs Melissa to get back into her corner and she obliges. Kenzie steps back into an empty corner and begins to line Lacklan up for her finishing move. As Lacklan gets to her feet, Kenzie charges. As Kenzie goes for her special kick, Lacklan ducks under it and as Kenzie turns around, Sarah nails her with a snap kick. Sarah grabs Kenzie from behind by the head and tucks her under her arm. Sarah lifts Kenzie up and nails a Reverse Brainbuster. Both women then lie incapacitated on the mat.))
SG: That’s Sarah’s father's finisher.
KV: She’s taken too much damage to get the pin though!
SG: Looks like they’re both out.
((Sarah crawls to her corner towards Reeves who’s cheering her on but Kenzie is crawling behind Sarah. As Sarah is about to reach Melissa, Kenzie grabs her foot. Sarah is bouncing on one foot now and she leaps up and hits Kenzie with a leaping side kick. Sarah then leaps towards Reeves and tags her in.))
SG: And here comes the hot tag!
KV: This isn’t good for team Kenzie and Shelley!
((Melissa gets in the ring and clotheslines Kenzie down. Shelley gets in the ring and Melissa drops her with a dropkick. Melissa turns her attention back to Kenzie who's up and she knees her in the gut. Melissa sets Kenzie up for a DDT but Shelley slams both forearms into Melissa’s back. Kenzie and Shelley hit Melissa with a double DDT and the referee then yells at Shelley to get out of the ring and she obliges.))
SG: Reeves could be in trouble after that double DDT.
KV: That had some impact on it, it’ll be interesting to see if she can survive this.
((Kenzie goes for the cover.))
1…
2…
KV: Lacklan breaks it up!
SG: Here comes Shelley!
((Shelley charges into the ring and she tackles Sarah down. The two scuffle until they both roll to the outside and continue to brawl out there.))
KV: Shelley and Sarah are straight up brawling!
SG: This is nuts!
((Shelley and Sarah charge each other on the outside and they take each other out with a clothesline.))
KV: Shelley and Sarah are out!
SG: They just took each others heads off!
((Kenzie is back up and she backs up into the corner and yells for Reeves to get up. It’s clear Kenzie is looking to finish the match.))
KV: Kenzie is looking to end this.
SG: WOAH! LOOK! IT’S BULLY MCCARRON!!
KV: Not just Bully! Orleans is on the other side of the arena!
((Throughout each side of the crowd in the arena the camera sees Bully on one side and Orleans on the other. The fans boos catch Kenzie’s attention and she sees Bully hop the barricade. Bully steps up to the ring as Orleans hops over the barricade on the other side.))
KV: What’s this about?
SG: It’s about Kenzie opening her big stupid mouth! She wanted to call out Chris Night? Then this is what happens!
((Kenzie walks up to the side Bully is on and begins to yell at him to leave. Bully laughs and points to the other side of the ring and Orleans is up on the apron. Kenzie turns around and sees him and she full on charges him and dropkicks him down off of the apron.))
SG: Kenzie just took out Orleans!
KV: Here comes Bully!
((Bully is up on the apron now and Kenzie charges him and nails him with an enziguri, sending him outside of the ring. Kenzie gets up and when she turns around, she’s met by Melissa Reeves who nails her with a codebreaker.))
KV: Facial Reconstruction!
SG: You idiot! It’s called Facial Deconstructor! Get it right!
KV: Well.. They’re similiar.
SG: Whatever! Reeves took advantage of the I-10’s appearance and she’s going for the pin!
((Reeves hooks Kenzie’s leg and the referee begins the count.))
1…
2…
3!!!
DING! DING! DING!
Jennifer Taylor: Here is your winners… MELISSA REEVES AND SARAH SELENA LACKLAN!!!
((The referee raises Melissa’s hand in the air when the I-10 Connection slide back into the ring. The both walk up towards Reeves and it looks like they have her cornered when Sarah and Shelley now slide back into the ring and their standing behind I-10 and the fans go absolutely nuts. I-10 turn around and see Sarah and Shelley standing there. They then turn back towards Reeves and Kenzie is standing next to her.))
SG: This numbers game is unfair! Someone help I-10!
KV: They interfere in this one and now they’re going to pay the price! It looks like these four women are about to form an alliance right now.
((Shelley dropkicks Orleans in the back and it sends him flying towards Kenzie who takes him out with a superkick. Orleans rolls out of the ring holding his face and now it’s just Bully. Bully goes to charge Reeves but she hits him with an elbow strike. He stumbles back and Lacklan grabs his head and nails a reverse DDT on him. Shelley picks Bully up and throws him out of the ring and the fans are going absolutely nuts.))
KV: Finally some justice against Chris Night’s henchmen!
SG: This is a travesty! The numbers game isn’t fair!
KV: Please! Bully and Orleans have been using the numbers games for months!
((Sarah and Melissa are in one corner and Kenzie and Shelley are in another and the two teams staredown at each other. Kenzie gives the other team a nod of respect when Shelley yells ‘this isn’t over.’ And the two roll out of the ring as Sarah grabs Melissa’s hand and raises it in the air, which catches Reeves by surprise.))
KV: It looks like Reeves and Lacklan are the new number one contenders for the tag titles.
SG: I’m not sure how happy Reeves is about that. I think she likes fighting on her own.
KV: Lacklan seems pleased at least.
SG: At least the Princess is happy!
KV: Indeed! Now let’s cut backstage to well… The tag champs!
((Tim Anderson is standing by in the backstage interview area with the #FSociety Tag Team Champions, Locke and Keyes. He holds the microphone up and starts out with his questions.))
Tim Anderson: Ladies, we just witnessed the team of Sarah Selena Lacklan and Melissa Reeves earn a title shot against you. Thoughts on the match we just witnessed?
Locke: Honestly, Tim. We respect all of the people that just fought. And when the day comes, two weeks from now at Cold Dawn, or whenever, we’ll get to that. Tonight, it isn’t about matches that are coming down the road.
Keyes: Yeah. We want to talk about the match we have tonight and then someday we can talk about all of the other great teams out there coming after us and the belts.
Tim Anderson: So tell me your thoughts on tonight’s matchup with the team of Hutch Lanahan and Adrien Cochrane.
Locke: We talked about the history we’ve had with these two guys at length this past week. We’ve had some great highs here in #FSociety but these two have also been part of some of our tougher losses.
Keyes: We’re not being held down by things that didn’t go well for us. We’re focused on turning things around and taking the next steps towards greatness and dominance in our careers.
Locke: We respect Hutch and Adrien. We know that has been reciprocated. We know the respect that they share for each other as well. But Adrien said it well last week. From bell to bell, respect goes out the window. It’s about winning. It’s about doing what it takes for yourself.
Tim Anderson: Do you feel like you’ve learned from some of the losses that you talked about in regards to Hutch and Adrien?
Keyes: Of course. You have to learn from anything. The good and the bad. Improve your strengths and improve your weaknesses. Study, learn, practice, react, try, fight.
Locke: We’ve been hit with the best of the best. Lanahan Lariat’s. Adrien Cutter’s. You name it, we’ve felt it. But we’re still standing.
Keyes: And we will still be standing after tonight.
Locke: Still the Tag Team Champions.
Keyes: And ready for whatever comes our way.
Tim Anderson: Thank you ladies, and enjoy your match tonight.
Locke: Thanks, Tim.
Keyes: Yep. Thanks.
((The two women bump their forearms together and walk off together.))
Match Seven: Singles Match
Gavin Grimes versus Zooey West-Jaa
((The opening beat to "Throne" begins to blare over the PA system and flashing white lights illuminate the arena, going along with the beat of the song and it causes the fans to cheer. Gavin Grimes is now standing at the top of the entrance way, a black hoodie on with the hoodie up on his head, while also wearing a pair of black jeans, black gloves with the fingertips cut off and a pair of white high-top Jordan's. Gavin's has his hands crossed as he looks down at the ground under him, his head nodding up and down to the beat of the music.))
~~Remember the moment you left me alone and
Broke every promise you ever made
I was an ocean, lost in the open
Nothing could take the pain away
So you can throw me to the wolves
Tomorrow I will come back
Leader of the whole pack
Beat me black and blue
Every wound will shape me
Every scar will build my
THRONE~~
Jennifer Taylor: Coming to the ring... Weighing in at 180 pounds and residing in Las Vegas, Nevada... GAVINNN GRIMESSSS!
((As the word throne begins to blare over the PA system, Gavin pulls off the hoodie from his head and begins to walk confidently down the ramp. Once he makes it to the ring, Gavin slides through the ropes. Gavin now takes off his pullover jacket and throws it into the crowd and it now reveals that he was wearing a white tank top under the pullover. Gavin then walks up to the ropes and stands up on the bottom rope while raising up one hand to the crowd as they cheer him on.))
Jennifer Taylor: And his opponent… Hailing from Phuket, Thailand and weighing in at 120 pounds… ZOEEEEY WEST-JAAAAAA!
((“Sit Still, Look Pretty” by Daya hits over the speakers as Zooey West-Jaa steps out onto the stage in a pair of long black wrestling tights and a Royal blue silk boxers robe, the hood up over her head and just down over her face. She rubs her taped hands together, cracking her knuckles as she walks down the ramp. Reaching up for the middle ropes she pulls herself onto the apron before pulling back with both hands on the top rope and jumping over the top to land in the ring with a small bounce on her toes. She continues to bounce back and forth on her toes a little as she sheds her robe and turns to face the corner that Gavin is standing in.))
((The referee calls for the bell and Gavin and Zooey are now standing in their respective corners of the ring and they stare each other down and the fans are going wild. Both Gavin and Zooey both glare at each other before they both peer out to the crowd that is completely hyped.))
KV: This Seattle crowd is loving this.
SG: No doubt! This match has been super hyped all week! Everyone wants to see these two throw down!
((Gavin starts to bounce around in the ring, trying to hype himself up, knowing he’s got a tough task ahead of him.))
KV: It looks like Gavin is trying to hype himself up some.
SG: He knows that Zooey West-Jaa is on a mission here tonight.
KV: These two are charging at each other!
((The two competitors rush towards each other at full speed and Zooey goes for a clothesline but Gavin is able to duck under it and he bounces off of the ropes. As Zooey turns around, she is met by a flying dropkick to her chest from Gavin that sends her flying to the mat. Zooey gets back up quickly and she charges at Gavin who then drops her with a drop toe hold.))
KV: Gavin has really been looking in top form lately.
SG: He has but he hasn’t fought anyone of Zooey’s caliber in #FSociety yet.
KV: That’s a valid point.
((Zooey gets back up to her feet and charges at Gavin. They lock up quickly, but Zooey realizes she won’t be on the better end of this deal and so she quickly squirms away before swinging for the fences with a hard right hand that nails Gavin right in the jaw and he stumbles back a few feet.))
SG: What a punch!!
KV: Gavin is lucky that it wasn’t a kick, those are even deadlier coming from Zooey.
SG: He can’t believe he took a punch that hard though! Look at his eyes!
((Gavin shakes off the cobwebs and charges towards Zooey but but she delivers a high kick to his head and he falls to the ground. Zooey now goes for the cover.))
1…
2…
KV: THR-NO! Gavin kicks out!
SG: Barely. Zooey nailed him with quite the kick! She’s already showing off her Muay Thai arsenal here tonight.
KV: This could be a long night for Gavin.
SG: Or a short one if Zooey connects with the right kick!
((Zooey picks Gavin up off the mat and whips him towards the turnbuckle and instead of bracing himself and crashing into it with his back, he ends up colliding with the turnbuckle chest first before collapsing on the ground.))
SG: Gavin’s so out of it that he didn’t even brace himself heading into that turnbuckle.
KV: Yeah, he crashed chest first and that definitely doesn’t feel good, I’m sure.
SG: Got anything else to say that’s obvious?
KV: Nope, I think that’s it.
((With Gavin lying down on his back, Zooey climbs the turnbuckle and looks down at him.))
KV: What’s she doing up there?
SG: Whatever it is, she’s probably going to use those lethal feet of hers! Gavin is in trouble!
((Zooey leaps off the turnbuckle as Gavin starts to get up. Gavin turns and is met by a diving knee strike straight to his head. He stumbles around the ring before collapsing down onto the mat.))
SG: What a diving knee strike!
KV: Zooey is pulling out new moves that we haven’t seen from her. You can tell she really wants this.
1…
2...
KV: THR-NOPE! Gavin’s foot is on the bottom rope! He just saved the match!
SG: Great ring awareness by the guy who hasn’t been beaten in over a year.
KV: There’s a reason he hasn’t lost during that time!
((Zooey pulls Gavin up by the shirt and synched in a headlock before wrapping her arms around Gavin’s stomach and lifting him up for a German suplex. Gavin clutches his back on impact and Zooey is quick to continue going to work on him. Zooey lands a few hard stomps right to the back of Grimes before picking him up and leaning him down on the middle rope. Gavin hangs there as Zooey leaps up in the air and drives both of her knees into Gavin’s back and he howls out in pain.))
KV: This has pretty much been a one sided affair.
SG: It seems to me that Gavin awoke a monster that had been hiding in Zooey. He said she can’t hang with him but she’s showing it’s quite the opposite.
KV: I have to agree with you there.
((Gavin drops down to the mat and Zooey goes for another cover.))
1…
2...
KV: Grimes kicks out at two!
SG: He’s kicking out of pure instinct now.
KV: He mentioned something about how he tends to do that.
SG: Yeah, well one of these days it’s going to get him killed and Zooey? She’s got the lethal weapons to do it.
((Zooey slaps the mat in frustration before standing up and it looks as if she’s stalking him with one of her fists cocked back, looking ready to strike at the perfect moment. After a few seconds, Gavin begins to stir and he stands up on his feet. He turns around and Zooey goes for a crooked arm lariat but Gavin ducks under it at the last minute. Zooey’s momentum has her leaning forward which gives Gavin the chance to wrap his arms around her head before driving her down head first into the mat with a headlock driver.))
KV: Zooey went for a crooked arm lariat and missed and Gavin just nailed her with The Crowning!
SG: He pulled it off again!! I can’t believe it!
KV: That literally came from out of nowhere.
SG: Desperation even but he’s gotta get that pin!
((Gavin crawls over Zooey and hooks a leg, going for the cover.))
1…
2...
SG: THR-NOOOO! ZOOEY KICKED OUT! OH MY GOD!
KV: Holy crap!
SG: How? That’s insane!!
((The fans are chanting “This is awesome” due to Zooey’s resiliency from kicking out of The Crowning. Gavin stumbles to his feet before he pulls Zooey up to her feet and Gavin tries to nail a left punch but Zooey counters and knees Gavin hard in the gut. Zooey tries to whip Gavin to the ropes but he stands his ground by keeping his feet planted on the ground. Gavin then counters and lands elbow after elbow before finally breaking free from Zooey’s grip. Gavin grabs Zooey by the head, and drops down, connecting with a sitout jawbreaker that sends the Zooey stumbling back a few feet. Gavin charges Zooey with all his might and he connects with a thunderous spear. Gavin then bounces off of the ropes and throws himself into the air, going for a running shooting star press but Zooey gets her knees up just in time and Gavin’s rips come crashing down onto Zooey’s knees.))
KV: So far, it seems that Zooey has just been one step ahead of Gavin.
SG: As she should be, Gavin has taken more damage than she has so far.
KV: Zooey is just so good at using those legs of hers as a weapon.
SG: If she lands the right kick, it’ll be over for Gavin.
((Gavin gets to his knees while clutching his ribs and Zooey blows Gavin a kiss before she delivers a thunderous buzzsaw kick to Gavin’s temple.))
SG: Was that?
KV: It was! The Long Kiss Goodnight, Ashleigh Grimes finisher!
SG: Zooey just used it and it looked brutal.
KV: Maybe even better than Ashleigh’s!
SG: Hey! You watch your mouth!
((Zooey goes for the cover.))
1…
2…
KV: Thr-NO! Another kickout by Grimes! How!? HOW?!
SG: Zooey is legitimately going to have to kill Gavin to win this one.
KV: This is unreal.
((Zooey wastes no time going back to work on Gavin after he kicked out. Zooey sets Gavin up for a suplex, but once she lifts him up, Gavin lands back on down on his feet. He then kicks Zooey’s leg and sends her to her knees. Gavin then connects with the Sac-Town Kick right into the back of Zooey West-Jaa’s head. Gavin immediately collapses after the move, grabbing his sore back and head, while Zooey is incapacitated in the middle of the ring.))
KV: Gavin countered but it seems like he can’t capitalize on it.
SG: He’s taken way too much damage.
KV: At least he’s dealing some out to even the odds though.
SG: Yeah but probably not enough.
((Gavin pulls himself up on the ropes and looks out at the crowd that’s going nuts. He blinks a few times, shaking the cobwebs from the beating he’s been taking. On the other side of the ring, Zooey is somehow beginning to stir even though Gavin nailed her with the Sac-Town Kick. Zooey is up on her knees when Gavin charges at her and leaps towards Zooey, wrapping his legs around her neck and driver her head in the mat, nailing a perfect hurricanrana driver. Gavin then goes for the pin.))
1…
2...
SG: Kickout! Zooey holds on!
KV: What an innovator move by Gavin Grimes but it still wasn’t enough to keep the talented Zooey West-Jaa down.
SG: Gavin is going to have to pull out all of the stops if he wants to win this one.
KV: Both of them are! This match is insane!
((Gavin rolls off of Zooey gingerly before standing up. Gavin holds onto the ropes, trying to catch his breath as Zooey starts to get up as well. Gavin delivers a hard closed left fist to Zooey’s face and she stumbles back before nailing Gavin with a right of her own. The two then trade punches and go back and forth before Gavin gives up on the punch battle and he drives his knee right into Zooey’s gut. He then grabs her by the head and executes a DDT.))
SG: What a back and forth contest!
KV: I don’t know how these two are still standing.
SG: Neither do I!
((Gavin climbs up the turnbuckle and looks at Zooey to make sure that she’s down. Gavin then leaps off and nails the Phoenix Splash. He then goes for the cover.))
1…
2…
KV:THR-NO!!!!
SG: Zooey West-Jaa survives again! She survived The King’s Splash!
KV: It’s like Zooey has gained a new level compared to before
SG: The spirit of her dad is fighting within her I’m sure. What a story!
KV: I agree with that. He might be gone but him and his legacy lives within his daughter and it’s showing here tonight.
((Gavin rolls off of Zooey slowly and both competitors are breathing heavily in the middle of the ring.))
SG: Gavin can’t believe Zooey kicked out of that one.
KV: None of us can.
SG: It’s going to take a miracle for either of them to win. We’re going to be here all night!
((They each get to their feet and Gavin knees Zooey in the gut before wrapping his arms around Zooey’s head. Gavin looks as if he’s about to hit Zooey with The Crowning once again but Zooey counters by elbowing Gavin in the gut several times before shoving him towards the ropes. Gavin bounces off of the ropes and he goes for a flying clothesline on Zooey but Zooey ducks under it. Gavin then turns around and before he knows it, Zooey is leaping back and nails Gavin with a Pele Kick. Gavin drops to his knees and Zooey charges him before nailing a Shining Wizard and Gavin drops to the mat.))
KV: WOW!
SG: Zooey’s got this! She just knocked his lights out!
((The referee begins the count.))
1…
2...
KV: NO!!! GAVIN KICKS OUT!!
SG: I seriously can’t believe this and neither can Zooey!
KV: Gavin is every bit the fighter that he claims to be.
SG: Why won’t this guy stay down? It must be from all the brain damage he’s taken, especially tonight!
((Zooey places both of her hands on her head in disbelief. She looks down at Gavin who’s no longer moving and she stalks over him. Gavin begins to stir and when he gets to his feet, Zooey nails him with a Crane Kick and Gavin goes crashing down to the mat.))
KV: Did you hear that echo through the ring?
SG: Grimes is finished!
KV: There’s no way he can continue after this.
SG: Your head can only take so much damage before you’re knocked out and Zooey has kicked him a million times already.
((Zooey hops on top of Gavin and the referee starts the count.))
1…
2...
KV: ANOTHER KICK OUT! WHAT IS GOING ON!.
SG: Gavin’s pain threshold is either impressive or borderline stupid and I think I’m going with the latter right now. This is just too much, even for him.
((Zooey sighs as she looks down at Gavin and shakes her head. She then looks up at the turnbuckle and nods as she keeps her gaze on the turnbuckle. Zooey walks over to it and starts to climb up the turnbuckle.))
KV: It looks like she’s going for something big.
SG: Whatever it is, she’s going to hit it because Gavin isn’t moving.
KV: If he’s on the ground, Zooey could be going for a double foot stomp to the chest and that would definitely end it.
SG: I’d have to agree.
((As Zooey gets to the top of the turnbuckle, Gavin is up on his feet and he uses a burst of adrenaline to run up the turnbuckle and him and Zooey are both standing on top of it as they begin to trade blows.))
KV: This is getting dangerous!!
SG: Somebody is going to die!!
((Gavin delivers an elbow shot to Zooey’s temple while they stand on top of the turnbuckle and it’s enough to incapacitate her. Gavin wraps his arms around Zooey’s head and the fans start to go nuts with Gavin’s eyes widening like a crazed man.))
KV: He’s not… Is he!?
SG: He’s going to go for The Crowning on the top rope!!!
((With Zooey’s head still wrapped in between Gavin’s arms, he leaps off of the turnbuckle and he drives Zooey West-Jaa’s head straight into the mat and it lands with a thud that can be heard throughout the arena.))
KV: Gavin just killed Zooey West-Jaa! What the hell!?
((Gavin goes for the cover and the referee begins the count.))
1…
2…
3!!!
DING! DING! DING!!!
KV: Gavin Grimes did it! Zooey West-Jaa gave him EVERYTHING that he could handle but he somehow pulled this one out to the surprise of everyone.
SG: Zooey West-Jaa controlled this entire match and she has nothing to be ashamed off, she fought like a champion and took Gavin Grimes to his limits.
((“Throne” by Bring Me The Horizon blares over the PA system as the fans go absolutely nuts at the match that they just witnessed. Gavin can barely stand up on his two feet when the referee grabs his hand and lifts it in the air in victory. After a few seconds, Zooey West-Jaa manages to get up to her feet and walks up to Gavin.))
SG: Here we go! These two aren’t done! Zooey is going to kill him!
KV: Not so fast! Look!
((Zooey grabs Gavin’s hand and raises it up in the air herself and the fans go absolutely nuts.))
SG: EW! Sportsmanship!
KV: I love it!
((Zooey nods before going to walk away but Gavin grabs her arm. Zooey turns and looks at him and the camera catches Gavin saying ‘Sorry about your dad.’ He then wraps his arms around Zooey and gives her a quick hug which catches her by surprise. He breaks the hug and nods and Zooey then exits the ring and Gavin continues to gingerly celebrate in the ring.))
KV: What a story! What a match!
SG: I’m sickened by this ending.
KV: I’m not! The two showed respect for each other after putting each other through hell.
SG: Whatever! I’m done with this crap!
((Zooey disappears backstage as Gavin continues to raise his hand in the middle of the ring. Ally Morrow comes running down the ramp, she slides into the ring as Gavin turns to meet her, the two get up close, noses touching as Ally starts yelling in Gavin’s face. The two start to get heated as the incident from earlier still has them both on edge, Ally shoves Gavin knocking him back a step and he smirks, before turning and back handing her clean across the face.))
KV:WOAH!
SG: Things are about to explode right now! Here we go!
KV: This isn’t going to end well, I can feel it.
((Ally takes a step back and turns away holding her mouth, the crowd cheers as Gavin mocks her, waving for her to leave his ring, security begin to flood the ramp as Ally turns and takes a step towards the ropes, still holding her mouth. At the last moment she turns back to Gavin and spits black mist in his face.))
KV: The mist! Ally got him with the mist!
SG: That’s not fair! What a cheater!
((Gavin stumbles back wiping at his face, but before Ally can capitalize she is yanked from the ring by several security guards through the ropes, they get between her and the ring and she starts laughing, as they force her to back up the ramp, she looks up at Gavin and blows him a kiss from her black stained lips.))
KV: This might be done for now but it’s going to explode at Cold Dawn.
SG: Gavin and Ally are going to destroy each other at Cold Dawn. If people thought Gavin went through a lot against Zooey West-Jaa, just wait until he gets in the ring with Ally Morrow. She’s nuts! I love it!
KV: I don’t think someone who’s nuts is as calculated as Ally Morrow. Anyway, it’s time to cut backstage!
((The scene switches backstage to Adrien Cochrane standing in front of an #FSociety camera. He smiles at the camera for a moment before he begins to speak.))
Adrien Cochrane: Good evening, ladies and gentlemen! Welcome to our humble little abode for the evening here in the great city of Seattle, Washington!
((The voice of the Dropkick King doesn’t even wait for the camera to completely focus in on him in the backstage area. But as the fans finally get a clear view of the former champion standing in front of the #FSociety banner with a microphone in hand and a hoodie with the logo of Washington-area band named Nirvana keeping him warm. The fans go ballistic once they realize who exactly is addressing them.))
Adrien Cochrane: So, we’re moments away from a huge match between me and my newest friendly rival, Hutch Lanahan against the glorious champions of the tag team realm, Locke and Keyes. So, I stand before you to address one specific person in this match.
((The fans cheer loudly, expecting Adrien to go on a tangent about his future opponent, Hutch Lanahan.))
Adrien Cochrane: I speak directly to you, Sarah Keyes. I actually had no idea that you took the result of our last match so hard. And don’t get me wrong, the fact you took the loss so hard is not an indictment of you, your skill, or anything like that. It tells me one big important thing about the person you are, Sarah: you care. And honestly, that’s really important when it comes to being in our line of work. You need to have passion about what you do. You need to give a damn when things go well or doesn’t go your way.
Sarah, let me explain one thing to you about our last match. There is no shame in what happened. That is not something you should be blaming yourself over what happened. You shouldn’t be letting that haunt you after all this time. You and Daisy did something incredible just a few weeks later. You should be celebrating your success, not worrying yourself over a minor match that happened a little earlier. In fact, I think that loss helped you win that title! Allow me to explain…
In the match against me and Aurora, you got a very good feel to how Aurora attacks her opponents and works with her partners. Sure, you didn’t win that match, but you took the knowledge you learned from Aurora and you turned it into something you could use for the match that actually mattered, with the belts on the line. If you had to lose one of those two matches, which of the two would you have preferred to lose?
I’m proud of you girls. You have grown so much since you first joined the company. You were part of the log jam that was trying to figure out how to get over Rebel Ink. But in the end, you were able to separate yourselves from the pack and overcome all that adversity to get to where you are now, #FSociety Tag Team Champions.
Now, I’m a man on the mission. I’m out to prove that I am the top competitor in this locker room. I’m out to prove that I still deserve top billing in this company. I’m out to silence anyone who doubts my ability and thinks that I was some sort of flash in the pan. I also have to prove to Mr. Lanahan that the leader of our locker room is Adrien Cochrane and how I can lead this locker room. Unfortunately, that means I will be aiming for a second victory over you. Don’t apologize for the titles not being on the line. Hutch and I are not in this so much to be the new hot tag team in the company, we are doing this in the name of competition between us and between everyone else who doubts both of us. I’ve actually never had a reliable full-time tag team partner in my career...keyword being reliable for those remembering my debut in wrestling with Dean Hobkirk...so I’ve never had a tag title, but I don’t think I should be worrying about that until I find a person in which I click with in a manner where I feel like we could be a top tag team. Until then, I’m focused on my singles career.
But, my singles career hinges on how I handle every match thrown at me. This includes this tag team match which is less than an hour away, Sarah...and I guess you too, Daisy. While Hutch and I try to hash out what we’re trying to hash out, we both will be absolutely needing this victory. And when this happens, I expect both of you to dust yourselves off and be the best damn tag team in our company. You’re capable and I believe in you both! So I’ll close with something simple: good luck, ladies.
((Adrien Cochrane flashes a grin in front of the camera before walking off camera.))
((Zooey West-Jaa comes through the curtain post match, she grabs up a towel and runs it across the back of her neck, as she turns to walk down the hallway towards the locker rooms, Cass Baumer steps in front of her mic in hand, Zooey rolls her eyes slightly, not a fan of an interviews before she plasters a fake smile on her face and looks at Cass.))
Zooey West-Jaa: Yes, Cass?
((Cass smiles and waves the camera a little closer before she angles her body to face Zooey and holds her microphone between them both.))
Cass Baumer: I was hoping to get a few words from you regarding your match?
Zooey West-Jaa: What’s there to say? The best man on the night won. I’ve had nothing but respect for Gavin from day one and that doesn’t change now. I’ve hit bigger obstacles than this in my short time at FSociety and I don’t intend to let this be the one that breaks me.
((Zooey shrugs slightly and goes to walk away but Cass prompts her with another question forcing her to turn back.))
Cass Baumer: You raised Gavin’s hand in the ring tonight, that’s a fairly unusual occurrence around here… why exactly did you do that?
Zooey West-Jaa: Uh, it’s a sign of respect ain’t it? Last I checked that’s what you do when ya have a good match and wanna respect the victor… Where I come from when ya have a solid match and are proud of what ya did, ya wanna celebrate that, win or lose.
((Zooey pauses for a moment before she takes the mic from Cass with a smile, she straightens full and addresses the camera directly.))
Zooey West-Jaa: I am proud of what I did here tonight; it ain't always about the winning, sometimes ya just wanna grow and tonight I did, I learned and I grew as a fighter and whether he admits it or not - I know I pushed Gavin to his limit and maybe, just maybe he learned something from me too…))
((Zooey looks at Cass and hands her the microphone back with a smile.))
Zooey West-Jaa: I hope that answers your questions?
((With a nod, Zooey then turns and walks down the hallway towards the locker rooms.))
Match Eight: Non-Title Tag Match
Hutch Lanahan and Adrien Cochrane versus Locke & Keyes
KV: This night of great tag team wrestling continues with two men looking to push their selves into the #FSociety Championship picture up again the current Tag Team Champions.
SG: Hutch and Adrien both have something to prove tonight. I’m going with them.
KV: Locke and Keyes were in singles action at our last Anarchy and they are looking forward to teaming up again tonight.
Jennifer Taylor: Coming to the ring first, weighing in at 190 pounds and hailing from New Orleans, Louisana… He is “The Dropkick King”... ADRIENNNNNN COCHRANNNNEEEEE!
((The lights cut off. The fans sit in silence. The opening guitar for "Last One Standing" by Simple Plan starts echoing throughout the arena and once the rest of the band kicks in, a set of two flames on opposite ends of the stage flare as the Dropkick King appears on the ramp. The arena explodes with cheers from the fan favorite wrestler.))
~~How many times are you gonna try to shut me out?
I told you once, told you twice, I ain't gonna turn back around
You can say whatever, try to mess with me
I don't care, I'm not scared
You don't have to say your sorry, save your sympathy
With a friend like you, I don't need an enemy
I would give you time if you were worth it
But guess what, you're not worth it~~
((Adrien Cochrane starts running down the ramp, slapping hands from the fans on his way down. He hops on the apron, hops over the ropes, climbs a corner as he holds his arms up in the air.))
~~Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, I'm always gonna be the last one standing
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, 'cause I'm never gonna give up trying
And now I'm ready to go, I'm here, I'm waiting for you
And I'm gonna be the last one standing
The last one standing~~
((He drops down and looks ready for the match to begin.))
KV: Adrien has made it clear he wants that #FSociety Championship back.
SG: But he also knows his partner tonight might stand in his way of ever getting that shot.
KV: Robb Hardy always knows how to put people together in interesting scenarios like these.
Jennifer Taylor : And his partner... from Mevagissey, Cornwall and weighing in at 222 pounds... HUTCH LANAHANNNN!!!
((“Hero" by Nas begins to play as Hutch Lanahan makes his way out to the stage. Hutch looks around the arena for a moment before walking down to the ring with a serious look across his face. He climbs into the ring and heads towards Adrien in their corner. The two men give each other a nod and wait side by side for their opponents.))
KV: We saw a sign of respect between these two at the last Anarchy.
SG: They better do their best to keep that mutual respect going tonight.
KV: A win against the Tag Team Champions helps both of these men in their long term plans to get back into the #FSociety Title picture.
SG: Which, when I think about it, if I was one of these two maybe I’d set the other guy up to fail and let them take the pin.
KV: That seems like a cheap way to try and make yourself look better.
SG: Still, it might just work.
KV: I think both of these guys want to prove themselves by winning and not by trying to make the other look bad.
SG: Their mistake.
Jennifer Taylor: And their opponents... at a combined weight of 254 pounds and from London, Ohio... the #FSociety Tag Team Champions… they are LOCKE AND KEYES!!!
((“Iodine” by Icon for Hire hits over the PA system. Sarah Keyes comes spinning out from the back, proudly holding up her #FSociety Tag Team Title. She knees down at the center of the stage as her partner Daisy Locke comes out and stands over her. Daisy leans over, draping her arms over her partner and whispers something into her ear. They both then stand up and play to the crowd as they head down to the ring. They slide into the ring together, with Keyes spinning around a little with her arms still out. Keyes pops her head through the ropes with her arms out and Locke comes up from behind her and stands over her with her arms in the air. They head to the opposite side of the ring and repeat this process for the other side of the crowd. They take a moment staring at their belts and then hand them over to the referee. The two ladies stand together and whisper back and forth as they wait for the match to start.))
KV: The champs are here.
SG: I can’t stand these two goody-goods.
KV: The fans don’t agree.
SG: The fans are stupid sometimes.
KV: This is a tough challenge for the champions.
SG: They’re just lucky the titles aren’t on the line.
KV: Speaking of that, they will be on the line in two weeks at Cold Dawn against Sarah Selena Lacklan and Melissa Reeves.
((Daisy Locke stays in the ring and nods with approval as Hutch Lanahan stays in to face off with her. They both circle around each other as the referee calls for the bell.))
DING! DING! DING!!!
KV: These two had a tough fight last week that Hutch came out on top of.
((Hutch and Locke come together in a classic collar and elbow. They fight for positioning, with Hutch backing Daisy into one of the corners. He then shoots down lower and starts drilling her with shoulder thrusts to the midsection. After four shoulders into her gut, Hutch pulls her out of the corner and looks for a high arm drag toss. Daisy blocks it and counters with an arm drag takedown of her own. Locke pulls Hutch up into a hammerlock. Hutch is able to quickly spin out of that and then drops his shoulder low before throwing him over with a Northern Lights suplex. Hutch drops down onto Locke and tries to keep her pressed down with a side headlock. Daisy starts working her way up to her feet but remains in the hold. Daisy counters into another hammerlock and then throws him back with a hammerlock belly to back suplex. Lanahan gets up and falls back towards the corner. Daisy rushes in and connects with a clothesline. She pulls him out of the corner and looks for another arm drag. Hutch is the one to block the arm drag this time and follows up with a punch to the midsection. He then lifts her up and powerslams her down near his corner. Hutch stands up and tags Adrien in.))
KV: Some great back and forth here.
SG: What’s Adrien up to?
KV: He’s heading to the top already.
((Adrien is quick to escalate to the top rope and leaps off looking for a senton bomb. He jumps off but Daisy rolls out of the way. Adrien rolls through the move and gets back up to his feet at the same time as Locke does. They come back at each other and Locke connects with a discus clothesline. Her momentum carries her forward and she tags her partner in.))
KV: Adrien misses with Flight One Eight Two.
SG: It didn’t look like it hurt him, though.
KV: I think that clothesline did.
SG: Maybe.
KV: And here comes Sarah Keyes.
((Keyes springboards off the top rope and hits Cochrane with a flying kick to the chest. Adrien stays on his feet but falls back into the corner. Keyes charges in and hits him with a jumping forearm to the face. She then hooks him around the head, pulls him out of the corner, and drops him with a bulldog takedown. Cochrane starts to get up his feet and Keyes charges towards the ropes. She springboards off the middle rope and goes for a flying axe kick to the back of his head, but Adrien sees it coming and avoids the shot. She gets back to her feet and turns around into a drop toe hold down onto the ropes. Keyes slowly gets up and Adrien pulls her back and then down with a side Russian leg sweep.))
KV: Cochrane has her rocked.
SG: I can’t believe I’m rooting for Adrien Cochrane right now.
KV: The man is a complete wrestler.
((Cochrane waits for Keyes to get up and lines up for a dropkick that sends her back into the corner. He charges in and hits a running corner dropkick. Not allowing her to fall to the mat, Adrien lifts Sarah up onto his shoulders and then plants her in the middle of the ring with a DVD.))
KV: The Dream Breaker.
SG: He dropped her.
KV: Cochrane going for the pin.
1…
2…
KV: Kickout!
SG: Stay down.
KV: Sarah Keyes has no quit in her. We’ve got a long way to go.
((Cochrane tags Hutch back into the match. The two men work together and sends Keyes into the ropes. They work together to look for a double clothesline. Keyes ducks under their shot and jumps onto the ropes. She comes back at them both for a springboard crossbody. Adrien and Hutch catch her and then work together to toss her back with a double fallaway slam. Adrien rolls out of the ring and Hutch pulls Keyes back up to her feet.))
KV: A little teamwork from the new duo of Hutch and Adrien.
SG: These guys are hungry. I love it.
KV: Daisy Locke wants back in this one badly.
((Hutch grabs Keyes around the head and hits her with a big forearm shot to the face. Keyes stays on her feet, falls back into the ropes, and rebounds with a lunge kick to the chest. Hutch fires back with a punch and once again knocks Sarah back into the ropes. She comes back at him with another kick that sends him back into the ropes this time. Hutch charges back at Keyes with a lariat attempt. She dodges it and leaps up onto Hutch’s back, taking him down into a crucifix pin attempt.))
KV: Hutch narrowly misses The Lanahan Lariat.
1…
2…
KV: Kickout!
SG: Too close.
KV: They both scramble up.
((Hutch regains the upper hand with a running shoulder tackle that takes the smaller opponent down. She sits up and Hutch hits the ropes before connecting with a soccer kick to her chin.))
KV: The Cheeky Chip.
SG: I love it. Do it again.
KV: That one hurt her.
((Hutch pulls Keyes up and holds her around the head. He reaches back and tags Adrien Cochrane back in. Cochrane comes in and kicks Keyes in the midsection and she falls back into the corner. Adrien lines her up and then charges in with running double knees into the corner. Adrien rolls back up to his feet while Keyes stumbles out of the corner. Adrien looks for a superkick but Keyes dips under the shot. She then charges into the corner, springboards off the middle turnbuckle, and takes Adrien down with a moonsault. She stays down on top of him and lays there for a cover.))
1…
2…
KV: Adrien tosses her off.
((Keyes rolls over and reaches up to tag Daisy Locke back in. She rushes in and staggers Cochrane with a big European uppercut. She backs him into the ropes with another uppercut and then sends him across the ring with an Irish whip. Cochrane comes back at her and she throws him down with a spinning spinebuster slam. She then lifts him up into a delayed brainbuster. She doesn’t stop there and pulls Adrien up again and holds his arm behind his back. She hook him around the waist and connects with a belly to belly hammerlock suplex.))
KV: Daisy Locke is on a roll.
SG: She’s just throwing Adrien at will around this ring.
KV: She’s not done yet.
SG: Adrien needs to get out of there.
KV: This could be The Great Deduction.
((Locke pulls Adrien up for an inverted hammerlock DDT. Adrien spins out of the hold and drops her with a cutter in the middle of the ring.))
KV: Adrien Cutter!
SG: From out of nowhere!
KV: That was impressive. What a counter.
((It takes him a moment but Adrien finally turns her over and goes for a cover.))
1…
2…
KV: Thr… No! Sarah Keyes with the save!
((Keyes dives in and breaks up the pin at the last second. She starts dropping some shots down on Adrien’s back while Adrien tries to stand up. Adrien hooks Keyes around the head and plants her with another Adrien Cutter.))
KV: Another one!
SG: She’s done.
KV: Adrien Cochrane just changed the game with consecutive Adrien Cutters to Locke and Keyes.
((Adrien pushes Keyes out of the ring and to the apron. He turns back around and gets kicked in the stomach by Locke. She puts him in a hammerlock again, lifts him up for a suplex, and drops him down with a sitout hammerlock suplex. She stays on top of him and goes for a cover.))
1…
2…
((Hutch dives in and makes the save this time.))
KV: Another close one!
SG: I love Hutch! This guys is a winner.
KV: Daisy Locke just took out Cochrane with a Seven Percent Solution but Lanahan saved the day.
((Hutch pulls Locke off of Adrien and starts drilling her with forearm shots. He hits the ropes and looks for another running lariat but Locke ducks down, lifts him up into the air, and drops him down neck first on the top rope. She then changes her position and holds him up by his legs so that he’s propped up by his upperbody on the top rope. Keyes gets back into the ring, runs up behind Locke, leapfrogs over her partner, and drops a legdrop down onto Hutch’s back. Locke turns her attention back to Adrien and she lifts him up again in position for a hammerlock inverted DDT. Keyes climbs up to the top rope at the same time.))
KV: This could be it. A Study in Scarlet.
((Adrien spins out of the hold again and looks for another Adrien Cutter. Locke blocks it this time and pushes him forward towards the corner. Keyes leaps off the top rope over Adrien and avoids him. Locke and Keyes end up standing next to each other when Adrien comes back at them and takes them both down with a split legged dropkick. On her way down, Keyes bumps into the referee and takes him down, leaving everyone in the ring down on the mat.))
KV: This isn’t good.
SG: It’s the perfect time for someone to bring a chair in or something like that and finish this one off.
KV: Come on. None of these guys are going to let it go down like that.
SG: And that’s what separates the champions from the wannabes.
KV: Wait… something is going on in the crowd.
((The crowd is turned around looking in different directions as Bully McCarron and Orleans come towards the ring from different sides of the arena and jump the rail.))
KV: What are these two doing back here again? Haven’t they caused enough chaos?
SG: Chris Night always has a plan.
KV: This is just unnecessary.
((Bully pulls Locke out of the ring and roughly throws her into the barricade. Orleans pulls Keyes out of the ring on the other side and tosses her into the steel stairs. McCarron rushes in with a big knee to Locke and then throws her back into the ring. Orleans comes over and the two men jump the barricade and disappear through the crowd together again before a few security members can get to them. Locke slowly stumbles up to her feet and Hutch hits the ropes. He comes back at her and levels her with a lariat.))
KV: Lanahan’s Lariat! He didn’t see what just happened to Locke and Keyes but he is doing what he needs to do to finish this one.
SG: Finish it!
KV: Locke is out on her feet, with Hutch pulling her back up.
((Cochrane is on the apron and jumps up onto the top rope. He leaps off and takes Locke down with flying double knees.))
KV: The Crescent City Connection!
SG: Call it.
KV: Adrien is going for the pin.
((The referee gets back in the picture and Hutch makes sure Keyes can’t get back into the ring.))
1…
2…
3!!!
DING! DING! DING!!!
Jennifer Taylor: Here are your winners… ADRIEN COCHRANE and HUTCH LANAHAN!!!
((“Last One Standing" hits and Adrien Cochrane and Hutch Lanahan get their arms raised slowly by the referee. Locke and Keyes end up huddled together outside the ring in pain. Inside the ring, Hutch and Adrien share a few words. They end up shaking hands but the conversation continues and it ends up being a somewhat tense looking chat. After the elongated handshake, they finally let go and head off in separate directions to celebrate the victory.))
KV: A great win for Adrien and Hutch, despite some of the shenanigans for the second time tonight from Chris Night’s goons.
SG: Hutch got the job done when it mattered and carried Adrien to that one.
KV: I thought Locke and Keyes were close to victory but Adrien’s resiliency kept hi team in this one.
SG: That’s another way to think of it. It’s wrong, but sure.
KV: Who knows how this plays out if Bully and Orleans stay out of this one, but you can’t take it away from Adrien and Hutch. They gave the tag champs a fight and they were victorious.
((The cameras move to backstage where Ally Morrow is still being restrained by security just behind the curtain, she is up in the face of one of the Security guards, yelling at them to back off, but they keep her detained in a small area with a wall behind her just off from the prep area for going out to the ring. After a few moments Tyson Gregory arrives, he shakes his head slightly with a smrik when Ally spots him and throws her hands up at the line of ‘Security’ refusing to let her leave.))
Ally Morrow: Will you tell Bubba here and his redneck brothers to let me go?
((Tyson laughs again but walks over to the situation, already dressed in his ring gear as next up, he faces Amber Richards for the FSociety Championship that sits on his left shoulder. He looks her up and down with a smile.))
Tyson Gregory: Do you promise to be a good girl?
((Ally frowns at him and he just laughs again, she pushes against one of the security guards and growls slightly, before she nods her head.))
Ally Morrow: Fine, fuck! I promise not to murder Grimes tonight…
((She looks up at the security guards and takes a step back, holding her hands up in the air she offers them a quick shrug.))
Ally Morrow: I’m good, I’m chill.. Now buggar off!
((The guards finally disperse and Ally walks over to Tyson with a smirk on her face, she runs a hand down his bare chest with an appreciative sound before she meets his eyes with hers. Her hand travels up his chest to run over the face plate of his Championship.))
Tyson Gregory: Be good… You promised.
((A twisted smile crosses her lips as she tilts her head up slightly, her lips almost touching his as she whispers her words.))
Ally Morrow: I did… But come Cold Dawn, win or lose…. That little shit is getting stretchered out of the arena, I promise you that.
((She kisses him softly and he smiles, as she turns to walk away he slaps her ass and she glances back over her shoulder at him.))
Ally Morrow: Are you just gonna watch me walk away or what?
((With a light chuckle he jogs a few steps to catch up with her and turns her back to face him, they share another kiss and he jabs a finger into her chest gently, arching a brow.))
Tyson Gregory: Let's get through tonight first, no more spitting in peoples faces… Deal?
Ally Morrow: Fiiiine, Deal….
((She turns away and starts walking down the hall, before she turns the corner she grabs the wall and leans back to look at Tyson with a smile.))
Ally Morrow: Oh yeah… Good luck and stuff.
((He laughs as she winks at him before disappearing around the corner and he returns to the curtain area, getting ready to go out for his match.))
((The scene cuts backstage to Robb Hardy sitting behind his desk. He has a smile on his face as he stares into the camera.))
Robb Hardy: Ladies and gentleman, we are two weeks away from Cold Dawn. That being said, there's a few matches that need to be established. The first order of business is that Allyson Morrow has requested that her match with Gavin Grimes be a Monster's Ball match. The key premise of the match is that all Allyson and Gavin are sequestered alone in a locked room without light, food or water for twenty-four hours before the match. With how these two have been constantly fighting with each other... I have no other choice but to grant Ally her wish and give her the match. This is the only way that Allyson and Gavin will end their issues with each other.
((He nods confidently before continuing on.))
Robb Hardy: Dean Judas and El Hijo Senor del Ass will settle their differences finally in a no DQ match. These two have also had their issues over the last two months and it's time to put an end to it. As for Hutch Lanahan and Adrien Cochrane and their successful partnership... I think it's time to see what these two can do when pitted against each other. So at Cold Dawn, Hutch Lanahan will take on Adrien Cochrane for the #1 Contendership for the #FSociety Championship.
((A pop can be heard through the arena even though Robb is in his office.))
Robb Hardy: As for who Anastasia Hayden defends her High Roller Championship against, I'm going to review the show and make my decision on who impressed me enough to get that shot. Lastly, the tag titles. Melissa Reeves and Sarah Lacklan, while an unlikely pairing, showed once again how great they are together by pulling off another victory. They've earned themselves a shot at the tag champions...
((The video becomes distorted for a moment before it comes back but it's not Robb Hardy on the screen anymore. Now it's Chris Night standing next to someone in a clown mask. A smirk is over Chris' face as he slowly claps.))
Chris Night: Great matches, Robb, seriously, bravo. While I agree with most of them, I think the tag titles match needs a little more... Traffic in it. Maybe even a connection. Actually, that gives me an idea... The I-10 Connection are being added to that tag titles match of yours and it's going to be a three way tag match and that's final. I-10 Connection deserve those belts better than anyone, especially since they easily disposed of Locke and Keyes so many weeks ago.
((Chris smiles and nods.))
Chris Night: Anyway, enjoy the rest of the show.
((The feed cuts away.))
Main Event: Singles Match
#FSociety Championship
Amber Richards versus Tyson Gregory
SG: Well that was interesting.
KV: It was! Chris Night just cut Robb off!
SG: I love it! Chris Night needs to just take over damn it!
KV: He put Robb in charge though! Six months ago he said he wasn't going to undermine him!
SG: Oh well!
KV: Ugh... Well, it’s time for Tyson Gregory to defend his #FSociety Championship!
SG: I love this guy! I love me some Amber Richards too though!
KV: She’s ready to put up a fight here.
Jennifer Taylor: Coming to the ring... weighing in at 140 pounds from Norwich, England... "The Gypsy Rose"... AMBER RICHARDS!!!
(("Everything That Could of Been" by Kittie blasts on the PA system, the lyrics rolling out. As the song explodes after the first verse Amber Richards makes her way out with her black hair flowing down as she throws her head back and lets out a laugh. Amber makes her way down to the ring. She runs and slides on her knee across the apron before resting her body against the ropes as the music fades out.))
KV: Amber looks focused and intense.
SG: Indeed she does. But probably not as much as the champ!
Jennifer Taylor: Coming to the ring next… weighing in at 221 pounds… He is the pride of London, England and he is your REIGNING and DEFENDING #FSOCIETY CHAMPIONNNNN… TYSONNNNNN GREGORYYYY!!!!
((The lights in the arena fade out as the big screen comes alive. Two taped fists appear on opposite sides of the screen, one glowing red with fire around it, the other a pulsating blue with an electrical current running over it. The two fists then crash into each other with an explosion revealing the name Tyson Gregory in their aftermath. "Dangerous” by Shaman’s Harvest starts playing throughout the arena as a bright spotlight shines at the top of the ramp. Tyson Gregory then steps out through the curtain with his head lowered and covered in a black hooded, sleeveless zip up hoodie and the #FSociety Championship strapped to his waist. Tyson flips his head up and the hood drops off his head as he makes his way down the ramp completely ignoring the fans. Once at the ring he pulls himself up on the apron where he leaps over the top rope and into the ring. He paces for a moment before settling in his corner where he takes off the hoodie and waits for the match to begin.))
KV: This one is about to get under way!
SG: Good! I been waiting for this all night!
DING! DING! DING!
((Tyson and Amber lock hands as the bell rings; Tyson immediately takes the advantage over Amber, forcing her down onto one knee he brings his own up to connect with her jaw, as Amber pulls back and rolls away Tyson smirks and stalks her up and down the ring, Amber rolls back up onto the balls of her feet and Tyson turns with a kick, all but taking her head off. Amber rolls to the outside and hits the mat hard, obviously hoping to catch her breath back.))
KV: Tyson looking to have the upper hand here and frustrating Amber.
SG: She’s just taking a break! Leave her be!
((Tyson doesn’t let up though and he follows her to the outside, wasting no time in yanking her up by her hair and rolling her back into the ring. Amber pulls back and sits up on her knees. As Tyson jumps up onto the apron, Amber charges and hits a modified spear to his spine, crashing through the ropes as she knocks him off the apron and they both hit the floor on the outside.))
KV: WHAT A MOVE BY AMBER!
SG: She just broke the champions back!
KV: She took a spill on the outside too though. I don’t know who’s hurt more.
((Tyson is somehow first to his feet and he walks over to Amber, standing in front of her as she tries to shake the cobwebs, she reaches up and grabs his trunks to pull herself up. Tyson appears to laugh for a moment before he brings his knee up into her face, as she falls back he gets down in her face and shakes his head no at her and gesturing down at his trunks. He then turns on his heels and slides into the ring as the official begins a count.))
KV: Tyson is having a little fun obviously.
ONE
TWO
THREE
SG: Amber needs to get up!
((Amber gets to her feet by pulling on the barrier, after taking a moment to catch her breath she is back with it, she looks up at the ring where Tyson is walking up and down the ropes, calling for her to get back in the ring and mocking her.))
KV: She’s up and Tyson is mocking her.
SG: What a guy!
FOUR
FIVE
SIX
SG: Well if Tyson moved back then Amber could get in the ring!
SEVEN
((The official makes Tyson move back from the ropes as Amber reaches the apron, he backs off and she rolls under the bottom rope, pulling up to her knees again as Tyson slips around the official and pulls Amber up into a snap suplex, they both bounce off the canvas and Tyson is first to his feet again.))
SG: Tyson took advantage of the high ground basically and now he has control.
KV: Amber could be in trouble here.
((Amber sits back on her heels and seems to rock slightly, as she does, Tyson bounces off the rope, running them for a moment before charging at Amber and, taking a page from Julian’s book, nails her in the face with a groin thrust.))
SG: Groin thrust!!!
KV: That was a mistake!
SG: What do you mean?
((Amber however appears ready for it and slams her head forwards, headbutting Tyson just below his abdomen and he drops to his knees with a pained expression.))
SG: Ohhh….
KV: Yep. Tyson’s in pain.
SG: His poor tiny champions!
KV: His what?
SG: YOU HEARD ME!
((Amber moves to capitalize on Tyson’s drop to his knees, rolling up onto her shoulders she flips him with a sitting head scissors, sitting back into a bridging indian deathlock, but they are right next to the ropes and Tyson is able to grab them almost immediately.))
SG: Tyson breaks the hold with a rope break.
KV: Too easy.
((As she drops the hold Tyson wraps his arms around her midsection and uses his weight throws himself over to smash her face into the canvas before standing up, his arms still locked around her in makeshift bear hug, pulling her to her feet with him.))
KV: Tyson has Amber in a bearhug!
SG: He’s squeezing the life out of her.
KV: Now he’s turning it into something else!
((He then converts the hold into a snap spinebuster! Slamming Amber into the ring he pops straight to his feet, turning to the ropes he bounces off of them, toe punting Amber in the face and keeping the rope run going, on the bounce he then kicks her to the back of the head, completing the chain with a final rope run before a diving double stomp to the face. He turns up onto his knees behind Amber who now lies on her back in the ring.))
KV: Things are looking bad for Amber.
SG: Tyson has full control of this one still.
((Tyson drops down for a pin.))
1…
KV: Kickout after one!
((Tyson pulls Amber up by the hair, yanking her head back he looks her dead in the eyes and shakes his head, before popping up to is feet and stepping on her chest, moving over and past her to sit back in the corner and wait for her to get up. The crowd is a mix of cheers and boos as he leans back against the post and stamps his foot, calling for her to get up.))
SG: Tyson is gearing up for something.
KV: Amber is about to be in a world of hurt if Tyson connects.
((Amber rolls over onto her stomach and pulls up, leaning back on the ropes she uses them to hold herself up, Tyson springboards across the ring and at the last second Amber grabs the top rope and drops down, sending Tyson over the top, as he its the outside he gets to his feet quickly but Amber wastes no time in throwing herself over the top rope into a crossbody suicide dive, crashing them both into the barrier with a bang.))
KV: What a counter by Amber!
SG: She just put her body on the line and I don’t know if it paid off! They’re both out!
((The official begins a count as Tyson and Amber both begin to stir, the crowd going nuts as neither one appears ready to make it to their feet just yet.))
ONE
TWO
THREE
SG: They’re both beginning to stir now.
((Tyson grabs the barrier and pulls himself up, spotting Amber he pulls himself up onto the barrier and with a diving senton he flips off the barrier and down on top of Amberr who hand just made it to her feet, sprawling them both out on the outside once more.))
KV: And they’re both back down again.
FOUR
FIVE
FIX
((Amber appears out completely as Tyson makes his way over to the apron, he reaches up and starts to pull himself up, the impact of the move has clearly taken a lot out of both of them as Amber now just begins to stir.))
SEVEN
EIGHT
SG: This could end in a double countout!
KV: That would be a shame!
NINE
((At the last second, Tyson rolls into the ring and back out to restart the count. He then slides back into the ring. Tyson sits back, his arms resting on his knees as he takes a couple of counts to get his breath back, a small smirk on his lips as he watches Amber struggle to get up.))
SG: Doesn’t didn’t want the match to end in countout.
KV: Can’t blame him.
ONE
TWO
((Tyson slides under the bottom rope with a baseball slide to Amber’s face. As his feet hit her in the nose she pulls back and yelps, as it still isn’t quite set from the match with Ally and a trickle of blood begins to run down and over her lips. Gregory doesn’t miss a beat though and barrel rolls her back into the ring before rolling back inside himself.))
KV: Amber’s nose is messed up!
SG: What a kick by Tyson!
((The official makes Tyson back off so he can check on Amber, who insists she is fine to continue. As she gets to her feet the official moves out of the way because of Tyson charging. Tyson leaps in the air and grabs Amber’s neck, going for a neckbreaker but Amber slips her head away. Tyson turns towards Amber and she nails him with a superkick. Tyson falls to the mat and Amber goes for the cover.))

2…
KV: Kickout!
SG: That was close! What a counter by Amber but I don’t know if she has much left.
KV: Her nose won’t stop bleeding. She looks out of it and the superkick was out of desperation.
((Amber picks Tyson up slowly and she tries to whip him into the ropes but he counters and knees her in the gut. Tyson then grabs Amber by the head and puts her into a sleeper hold, his forearm choking across her throat as he yanks back, pulling her up to her knees with a tightening effect, continuing to choke her out in the hold.))
KV: This isn’t looking good!
SG: Amber is probably lightheaded from losing blood already! I think this one is as good as done!
((The official drops down and lifts Amber’s arm to check on her, as he does so though, Tyson releases Amber from the hold.))
SG: Tyson let go of the hold!
KV: I don’t get why?
SG: Don’t question the champ!
((Tyson kneels in the middle of the ring, catching his breath before he rolls up onto his feet and throws himself off the ropes, with a jump he nails a double stomp to Amber’s face, busting her nose wide open and knocking her out cold, after already bringing her to the brink with the sleeper hold, to the mat as her head jars back with a whiplash effect.))
KV: THAT WAS UNCALLED FOR!
SG: I’m pretty sure Tyson wanted to prove a point and he did just that.
((He then casually drapes himself over Amber’s body and hooks her leg.))

DING! DING! DING!
Jennifer Taylor: Your winner and STILL #FSociety Champion… TYSON GREGORY!!!
((Tyson isn’t done as he begins to lift Amber up off of the mat. Aurora Graves now runs down the ramp and Tyson sees her coming.))
KV: Aurora is coming down to make the save!
SG: Tyson is going to do to her what he just did to Amber!
((Aurora slides into the ring and Tyson goes to clothesline her but she ducks under it. Aurora bounces off of the ropes and then comes back and nails Tyson with a flying crossbody. She’s on top of him and begins to throw punches at him. Tyson counters and rolls over onto Aurora and begins to throw punches of his own.))
KV: Somebody needs to stop this!
SG: Why? Let them fight!
((The two keep fighting and they spill out of the ring. They continue to trade blows until Robb Hardy walks out to the top of the entrance way. He’s calling for help from the back, motioning for people to run down and stop the fight. A team of security come down and they begin to pull Tyson and Aurora apart. Tyson drops two security guards and Aurora drops two herself and the two meet up and begin to exchange blows again.))
KV: They’re taking out security!
SG: They want to fight now!
((Finally enough security is there to pull the two apart. They have a shouting match as they are kept away from each other.))
KV: What a show! All we have left is Cold Dawn!
SG: And what a way to end Anarchy heading into Cold Dawn! I am excited to see how everything plays out!
KV: So am I! We’ll see you all at Cold Dawn in Portland, Oregon!
((The feed cuts away.))
