WELCOME TO FUTURE STARS OF WRESTLING!!
"Undead" by Hollywood Undead blasts in the arena as the show starts off with video footage detailing historic events that have taken place on Future Stars, From past champions like Jason Hunter, Dixie Dubois, Amis Shelton & Otaki before switching to new stars Sebastian Conner, Joshua Aquin, Donnie Deco, Elijah Easton & Kyle Gautier to established stars Hatchet Gully, James Larson, Jack Nomad, Criss Cassidy, Matt Angel & Xavier Reid to the former champion herself Otaki and then to The Future Lexi Glass, Lancer, Ian Icon, Kristian Bane and Stephan Kingston and then to the current FSW champion Maggie Lockheart standing in the ring with the FSW Championship around her waist.
The opening pyros hit and here we go.
The camera pans around showing the excited crowd jumping for joy in anticipation for the beginning of the show.
The camera then pans out showing a full scale view of the jam packed arena and zooms in on some crazy fans holding up their signs.
"Take me Maggie"
"I'm a Nomad too"
"Bastard Volando is best Volando"
FUTURE STARS!
FUTURE STARS!
FUTURE STARS!
FUTURE STARS!
FUTURE STARS!
Franklin: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Future Stars of Wrestling! I am the voice of FSW, Franklin Wright, and along side me is the dapper don, ol Dick Shelby. Dicky boy, tonight we've got a HUGE main event, with one of the inaugural Tournament of Power winners facing the former and longest reigning FSW champion.
Dick: Xavier Reid...Otaki....they're gonna blow the roof off the place. We also have the reigning FSW champion in action against another of her Future members, as Maggie Lockheart will take on Stephen Kingston.
Franklin: Not to mention a hoss matchup where one of the most violent men FSW's ever seen takes on the big man of the Future. Jack Nomad will look to keep his streak going against Kristian Bane, whom more than held his own against Maggie last week in his championship match.
Dick: That match will not be for the faint of heart, believe me. That being said, let's get to...
The sound of static overtakes the sound system as the lights in the arena suddenly begin to flicker with the rumbling of a bass beat. The chorus of “Hey Man, Nice Shot” by Filter begins to play as a few pyros shoot towards the entrance as Sebastian Conner makes his way through the curtain. Looking at all the fans with mixed reactions. In between static and the lights flickering he begins his strut to the ring.
Franklin Wright: Ladies and gentlemen, this is Sebastian Conner, who made quite an impact by choosing to enter the battle royal at Wrestlefest as his first appearance in EWC in which he walked out with the victory.
Dick Shelby: We'll see how he does against someone with some talent.
He carries a smirk on his face as he soaks in the crowd. He runs and slides in the ring and with the momentum he runs and hops to the middle rope of the corner turnbuckle. He throws his hands in the air to another mixed crowd before hoping back to the ring.
SEBASTIAN CONNER!
WHO IS THIS?!
SEBASTIAN CONNER!
WHO IS THIS!
WHO IS THIS?!
SEBASTIAN CONNER!
WHO IS THIS!
Sebastian Conner: “I am sure a lot of you don’t know who I am, and many of you probably don’t care. I promise you, if you’re thinking about getting up to get a drink or use the restroom, you might want to hold it. I’m not out here to bored you with a story or explain who I am. You will get to know me over time. What I will tell you is, Maggie Lockheart and the rest of her group have been out-smarting James Tyson at every turn. Sure, you can pit them against each other week after week. What will that prove? Even if one of her own members defeat her, it will still be a win for the Future. So, please explain that logic.”
He walks over to a ring post and climbs it to sit on the top turnpost.
Dick Shelby: Who does he think he is, doesn't he realize we have a show going on?!
Franklin Wright: He has just as much right to talk as the next person.
Sebastian Conner: “So, as far as I am concerned you need to look into an alternative solution, and that alternative is me. I have already shown and will continue to show that I am going to push forward and prove myself as I already said I would. I am not on anybody’s side, and I have tremendous respect for Maggie. She has proven herself time and time again, and has shown she is not one to be outdone. Truth is, if you’re looking for a deterrent then look no further. ”
Franklin Wright: Did he just tell our GM that he is the one to stop Maggie Lockheart and The Future?
Dick Shelby: See, I told you he is as dumb as he looks.
Franklin Wright: It takes a special type to come out and call out the champion, even more so when that champion is Magdalena Lockheart.
Sebastian Conner: “And Maggie, please understand that it’s nothing personal. As I look at you competing on the other brands, I have to question your role here. You and The Future had a short gain and may have a grip on our brand, but even you have to admit the idea to climb to the next brand, and take a new crown is something even I know you want. You have this Princess of FSW thing going for you and I have no disagreements with that. However, which member of the future would you trust to carry your ideology? So Mags, the way I see it, is the FSW and it's "Future" has a new heir to the throne. And that heir, is me.”
Franklin Wright: I am not sure if that was a challenge or if he was saying he should take her place as the leader of The Future.
Dick Shelby: I am sure he isn't being dumb enough to challenge her, and she is defiantly not dumb enough to let him run anything.
Franklin Wright: There is still so many questions I have.
“Hey Man, Nice Shot” begins playing again, as Sebastian tosses the mic to the ring and makes his exit.
OPENER
Joshua Acquin Vs Donnie Deco
The sold out Galen Center was pumped up for the opening match between the debuting FSW stars. As the match started each man played fast and loose with the rules drawing the warning from the referee. As one moment the FSW fans thought they were about to see the first clean break of the night after Joshua Acquin took a step back from Donnie Deco who he had pushed into the corner only to have Donnie slap Joshua across the face as Joshua put his hands up for the break.
From there it was an all out war with each man trying to have their very own highlight reel. It started with Joshua leg kicks that worked his way up Donnie’s body and sending Donnie bouncing back into the ropes with a spinning back elbow and followed him into the ropes with a high knee smash to the face. He goes for the pin but Donnie is able to kick out at 2 to the excitement of the fans.
Joshua continued to stay on the offensive but Donnie was able to duck under a running clothesline, Joshua turns and takes a kick to the stomach and is spiked down to the mat with a picture perfect DDT. Donnie makes an attempt to ground the match when he locks in a sleeper hold and then transitions that into an ankle lock. The fans come to their feet as Joshua reaches out for the ropes trying not to give in. Just as he looks like he’s going to tap he reaches out and by his fingertips reaches the ropes for the break.
Both men make it back up to their feet and bring the crowd to their feet as the meet in the center of the ring and unload with right hands on their opponents face
Joshua takes the upper hand with a huge uppercut that rocks Donnie back and Joshua lights up the chest of Donnie Deco with a thunderous chop and hooks him in an abdominal stretch. Joshua rocks back and forth trying to really work over the midsection but Donnie starts to break free and he grabs the ropes but Joshua refuses to break the hold, he pulls Donnie away from the ropes and spins the abdominal stretch into The Hit, Joshua drops Donnie straight down on his face and rolls into into a cover and the 1..2..3!!! Joshua celebrates, but Deco comes to and slides out of the ring, pulls a lead pipe from under the ring, and CRACK!! He lays out Aquin with the pipe and stands over him.
We open upon Jack standing before a rolling camera in some unknown part of the Arena. Naturally, he sports an old Son's of Anarchy T-shirt, brown cargo pants and work boots, and seems to be in the middle of taping his fists at this particular moment.
Jack: My current opponent, Krisitian Bane, has some backup in the form of a little group called The Future. Comprised of Lexie Glass, Stephen Kingston, Ian Icon, some douche bagel named Lancer, and lead by the talented Maggie Lockheart.
He was slow and meticulous as he wrapped his wrist and hand in white tape, as if it were a ritual. He never looked up from his work.
Two things.... One, I have no intention of joining your little club if offered. I don't play well with others and tend to demand the obedience and respect of any crew I'm part of. In short, I play second fiddle to nobody. So Maggie, save your breath for something like blowing gently in my ear before a little hard coitus. I don't follow, I either lead or I do shit on my own. Unlike you, I don't need anyone's help to secure the things I want in life.
Two, if I see anyone wearing a Future T-shirt or that has sworn allegiance to Maggie Lockheart cross my ropes and enter my ring or even attempt to lay hands on me at any point while I'm at ringside and their name isn't Kristian Bane, consider it open season on you and your entire crew, Maggie. The outcome of the match won't matter at that point. I don't care about your championship or what you and your cronies do at present, but the absolute moment you fuck with me will mark your final days as FSW Champion as well as the Future being a cohesive, functioning unit.
Finally, Jack looked up from his hand tape at the camera, finished with the work. He gives his palm a hard test smack that echoes across the mostly empty backlot he stands in.
My last opponent learned the most important rule in all of EWC.... Don't Fuck with Jack Nomad. I'd much rather be able to appreciate your beauty, Magdalena, rather than be the one that destroys it. As I'd rather fuck you than kill you, I've decided to issue you the rarest of warnings. I'm content where I'm at, so, do not give me an excuse to pluck your pedals, end what could be a fantastic championship run, and cripple you and your crew for life....
And with that, Jackie Boy steps out of frame, the scene cutting back to ringside.
MATCH 2
Lexie Glass Vs Brown Eyed Huntress Vs Rhonda Knight
Lexie Glass came out like a house of fire, looking to get back into the win column against a familiar foe in BEH and a newcomer in Rhonda Knight. Neither woman could get out of the gate with too much momentum as Lexie was the whole show, hiting back and forth, taking it to both women with reckless abandon, apparently looking to prove something as there were Glass Breakers all around as Lexie got a dominating victory.
The camera cuts backstage to where Destiny Fairchild stands, there is a huge pop from the Galen Center FSW fans, she smiles and winks into the camera for the reaction she receives
Destiny Fairchild: Please welcome my guest at this time, one half of tonight's Main Event Xavier Reid!!!
To a bit of a surprise there is a mixed reaction as Xavier Reid walks into the shot sporting a #AllMistAce Black and White t-shirt from StableWars, Destiny looks at the shirt and just shakes her head with a small smile.
Destiny Fairchild: Xavier, tonight in the Main Event…
But Xavier reaches out and covers Destiny’s microphone with his hand and stops her mid-sentence, he then lifts the hand and holds it up at Destiny Fairchild.
Xavier Reid: Sorry, I’m going to stop you right there, I know you mean well and have been told to help ‘sell’ this match but if we have to sell this match here tonight then we should have never opened the doors today. These fans out there in those seats...they know what they are about to see here tonight…
The camera cuts away from Destiny and Xavier and back out ringside where the FSW fans are going crazy…
Xavier Reid: See there is a reason the Galen Center sold out in hours and the line was around the building for standing room only here tonight and while I’m not going to take sole credit for tonight’s success tonight does have that...well BIG FIGHT FEEL!!!!
The fans continue to go crazy...some cheering while others booing
Xavier Reid: I can’t tell you how long I have waited for this match...to get the chance to go one on one with Miss FSW herself...and I know, there were champions before Otaki and there is another now wearing that FSW Championship but NOBODY has done more for this company than Otaki…
And with that the entire FSW crowd cheers
Xavier Reid: Rumble in the Bronx winner...she took and put the FSW in the Main Event of WrestleFest and even though it didn’t go her way there were moments in that match were the suits got a little tight in the back door with the idea of the EWC Undisputed Championship being held up at a FSW show...she went on to win the FSW Championship and held that belt for a record 205 days...a record run that might never be seen around here again...she cleaned this place out and it wasn’t until a few new faces came in and well mixed things up...she had stars on the ‘Main Brand’ come down to lonely poor developmental...champions with belts that we here in the FSW are not eligible to win let alone wrestle for and what did she do...she sent them packing with L’s on their records...nobody had a hotter close to the year than Otaki and yes she SHOULD have been in that Main Event at WrestleFest but it’s behind us now...it’s a new year...a what could be her LAST year in the EWC so she is all about making the most of her time...and that brings her face to face against me here tonight in Los Angeles…
There is a mix reaction from the fans
Xavier Reid: People come to this town in hopes of making it big...becoming the stars the rest of the world never forgets...they come here with nothing but the clothes on their backs for just that one chance...well this is MY ONE CHANCE!!!! I’m the extra with one line hoping to upstage to marquee star of the FSW and become the talk of the town…
This draws a few more boos from the FSW audience
Xavier Reid: Yeah yeah I know...nobody wants to see the star of the show replaced but that’s the funny thing about this town...you love someone one second and the next moment some fresh new pretty thing makes you forget about the old tired once was...Hollywood...Wrestling...we really aren’t that different when you look at it...we have top stars doing whatever they can to hold onto their ‘spots’ in this company and hungry wolves willing to do whatever it takes to move up that ladder...tonight I get my shot at one of the very best not only the FSW has to offer BUT THE EWC HAS TO OFFER!!! I get the chance to walk into that ring here tonight and see where I rank...how I measure up to a top star around here...it’s what brought me back to the EWC...Otaki is what brought me to the FSW...I wanted to test myself against the very best and as much as some people around here put blinders on to that fact Otaki IS one of the very best the EWC has to offer.
The fans clap for this statement
Xavier Reid: I have put my cards on the table...shown my hand...so all that’s left is to walk that aisle...climb into that ring...and wait for the bell to ring...as see where I truly stand around here...Otaki wonders what effort I will bring to that ring here tonight...wonders if I will bring my very best…
The camera zooms in on Xavier Reid
Xavier Reid: I am willing to leave a piece of myself in that ring here tonight...win or lose...Otaki is going to know she has been in a fight...a war...and yeah she doesn’t see me as a threat...as someone on the level of the ‘champions’ she has already faced by nights end...once that bell rings and all you people out there are on your feet giving us a standing ovation she and the rest of you will respect the fact that Xavier Reid is ready to pick up the baton and become one of the pillars here in FSW...one of the people that will change the way the ‘main brands’ look at ‘developmental...in 2016 the FSW shocked the world...in 2017 the FSW backed it up and in 2018...the FSW shakes the entire business up...and that shake up starts tonight as on the eve of Brawl 500...FSW#53 will be what people are talking about all next week...Otaki and I will steal the show and be the match that everyone is talking about…
The fans start to chant FSW!!! FSW!!! FSW!!!
Xavier Reid: So sit back...and enjoy the show!!!!
Xavier smiles at Destiny as he walks off camera...

MATCH 3
Sebastian Conner Vs Kyle Gautier
Sebastian Conner starts with quick with a Running Knee, then takes control with a series of closed fists toe face and body of Kyle Gautier. He follows this barrage up with a Powerbomb and attempts to the match quickly but Kyle kicks out of the pinfall. Conner goes for another Powerbomb, but Kyle breaks free and connects with a series of chops to the chest followed by a European Uppercut then a hard elbow to the sternum, finishing the combo with a DDT. Kyle goes for the pin, but Conner has more fight left in him. Kyle Gautier follows up by putting Conner in a sleeper, but Conner breaks out by ramming Gautier into the corner a few times. Conner slams Gautier to the mat with a Spinebuster. Then goes for the Duly Noted, attempting to lock in a Texas Cloverleaf, mimicking Gautier’s finisher but Gautier kicks him off before he can lock it in. Gautier connects with HAHA, Whoops and goes for a pinfall but again Conner kicks out. Gautier then goes for The End, but Conner kicks him off as Gautier did when Conner tried to mimic the finisher. Conner then connects with Honorable Deeds, and the ref makes the 3 count for the win. Both men stand up and face each other after the bell. Kyle reaches out to shake Sebastian's hand...and after a short pause to catch his breath, Sebastian takes Kyle hand nad shakes it...then gives him a quick jerk, pulling him in, staring him down for a second, before walking away.
We return from commercial with Destiny Fairchild and a fresh from his match Kyle Gautier. He is favoring his right shoulder.
Fairchild: Please welcome my guest at this time, Kyle Gautier. Kyle, how do you feel after your defeat at the hands of Sebastian Conner?
Gautier: Honestly, Destiny, he was the better man. We went out and tried to put our best out there and for me, it wasn't enough this time. But I can tell you this, when you see me in the future, you will see a new Kyle Gautier. More focused than ever, and if I cross paths with Sebastian again, perhaps the ending will be different.
Gautier steps out of frame.
Fairchild: You heard it here first, ladies and gentlemen. Kyle Gautier is the newest member of The Future. Back to yo--
He steps back into frame.
Gautier: Um, pardon?
Fairchild: Huh?
Gautier: I'm sorry, it just sounded like you said I just joining the Future and that is categorically untrue.
Fairchild: You just said when we see you in The Future...
Gautier: Yes, when you see me in the future...
Fairchild: The Future.
Gautier: It sounds like you're saying the Future. And what I'm saying is the future.
Fairchild: What you're saying and what I'm hearing are the same thing.
Gautier: Hrm... okay. When you see me in what will be the present plus time...
Fairchild: Oh, the future... why didn't you say so?
There is a few seconds of head tilting and unsure starting between the two.
Gautier: O...kay... sounds like we're on the same page. Thank you for taking the time to talk with me and clarify.
He leaves the frame again.
Fairchild: So a rare retraction, everyone. Kyle Gautier will not be joining the Future. Don't worry, though. He wasted my time as well. No wonder he has no friends.
Gautier: (offscreen) What the hell, Destiny?
Fade out.
MATCH 4
Ian Icon/Matt Angel VS James Larson/Criss Cassidy
The Future's tag specialist and the high flying Angel taking on two established FSW mainstays....it started with Angel and Larson trading blows early, getting into it all over the ring, not giving an inch, then some swift tags brought Cassidy and Icon into the fray...and that's where it all changed. It seemed like either Cassidy had something extra in his ste or Icon was off, but Icon and Angel could never recapture that early momentum, as after taking the Christening, Larson finished up the job with the Chain Breaker to get the pin and win.
Stephen Kingston is walking the halls of the Galen Center with his usual arrogant swagger while dressed to the nines in a purple button-up, black blazer, and matching dress pants. He stops, and the mixture of arrogance and disgust drops from his face and is quickly replaced with a look of glee.
Stephen Kingston: Ah, there you are! Just the gal I wanted to speak to.
The camera pulls back, revealing the FSW Champ complete with title belt around her waist. Stephen huffs some hot breath onto the cuff of his shirt and uses it to buff the center plate of the belt.
Stephen Kingston: You know something, that title's awfully gorgeous. It's a shame it won't be on the line tonight.
Magdalena smiles, standing perfectly still with her hands on her hips as she waits for Kingston to finish polishing the championship belt.
Magdalena Lockheart: Getting a little close there, aren’t we, Mister Kingston?
Kingston’s grin is unaffected. He backs away and fixes his cuffs.
Magdalena Lockheart: Thank you, by the way. Yes, I do agree that it’s a shame that the title isn’t on the line tonight. I could have two defenses in as many shows since WrestleFest. Surely that would speak to the legacy and prestige that this title brings.
Stephen Kingston: You're absolutely right, Maggie. It would bolster the weight that belt would carry when you walk into a room. That's why I don't understand why you wouldn't have that idiotic troglodyte of a general manager put it on the line. Win or lose, it would stay with us.
Magdalena Lockheart: Look, I may be the champion, but understand that I don’t make the matches. You know who does. From what I've gathered this is all a tactic. Giving Bane the shot and not you smell just a bit fishy, right? If you really want to know what this is- Look around you. James Tyson is many things, but an imbecile he is not.
Stephen Kingston: Are you sure about that? He's booking this show as effectively as Rocky Dennis looks like a person, which is "not at all".
Magdalena shakes her head and places her forehead in her palm. It doesn't seem like she and Kingston are sharing the same page on this.
Magdalena Lockheart: You know, just as well as I do, that Tyson’s only seeking to fabricate a certain tension between us.
Stephen Kingston: This isn't about the tension he's trying to stir up. We're strong. I know that and you know that. This is about that championship and how old Jimmy's been ducking me ever since that first match-up - which, by the way was a deck stacked in everybody's favor but mine - all those months ago.
Magdalena Lockheart: Hey, if you want JT to win this war- that’s fine. I’m not looking to hold you down or hold you back. Look at me... that's not my style. All I can say is that we go out there and give it our best tonight. If you beat me, well, your name gets skyrocketed to the forefront of all of the challengers. Tyson won’t be able to ignore you any longer.
Stephen says not a single word for the first time in his tenure in EWC. In fact, the smile on his face had faded away. His eyes simply navigate from Maggie to the belt, and then back again. His gaze is stern and unwavering.
Magdalena Lockheart: Ignoring you… Hmm… isn’t that why you agreed to join the Future in the first place? Stephen- we’re all in this to get what we want. Just make sure… and I mean one-hundred percent sure… that you know what you want before you try to take this championship away from me…
Magdalena steps forward and glares a hole right through Stephen’s eyes.
Magdalena Lockheart: Because you have no idea how much I want to keep it.
Stephen Kingston: Don't you worry about me, sister. I know what I want, and what I want belongs to you... for now.
Stephen walks off, regaining his arrogant demeanor for any of the bystanders he may pass along the way. The camera turns towards Magdalena, who cannot hide the snarl forming from her pursed lips.
Magdalena Lockheart: So be it...
MATCH 5
Stephen Kingston VS Magdalena Lockheart
Maggie, the champion and leader of the Future. Stephen, the presumed consigliere. Both looking to prove something, maybe to the world, or more specifically to each other. They move in slow after the bell rings, feeling each other out within this new lay of the land, making moves, countering and pressuring each other. Both got near falls, hit each other with secondary moves, and Stephen managed to kick out of Maggie's Eclipsis Lunae. He even hit Maggie with Close to Glory, and was thisclose...but not close enough. A counter of Stephen's 15 Minutes showed the difference between the two, and the LaCrimosa was the game ender. The champion wins in what was a helluva showcase for her second in command.
The camera cuts to the back where ‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love leads Prime star Killjoy Ito into the Galen Center.
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: I’m telling you, Criss Cassidy and Donnie Deco get it, they work on Prime and FSW and sure it has to be hell flying all over this world but those two magical words make it all worth it
He looks at Killjoy and with a smile on his face says
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: TWO PAYCHECKS!!!
Tommy laughs and slaps Killjoy on the back as a FSW Staff Member walks up to them.
FSW Staff Member: Um excuse me, gentlemen…
Tommy looks from Killjoy to the FSW Staff Member.
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: Oh perfect just the person I wanted to see…
The FSW Staff Member looks a bit confused with this statement since he has never met ‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’
FSW Staff Member: Can I help you guys with something? You know this isn’t FSW right?
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: Yes, yes we are aware that this is a FSW Show as we are aware that this, ALL OF THIS is the EWC where the doors are always open to fellow EWC stars and I am here is a EWC Star, Killjoy Ito.
Tommy Love points to the man standing next to him.
FSW Staff Member: I am aware of who he is, who you are and yes, the FSW doors are always open to anyone in the EWC.
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: Well thank you for your warm welcome, now if you could please direct me to Miss Quid we would be internally grateful
FSW Staff Member: Miss Quid? Does she work in HR?
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: I certainly hope not, wow could you imagine her in charge of human resources around here, dear lord it would be like giving the keys to the CVS Pharmacy to a drug dealer.
FSW Staff Member: I’m not sure who you are talking about, Miss Quid…
And then the light bulb goes off inside the head of the FSW Staff Member
FSW Staff Member: Wait Miss Quid, are you talking about Ashley Quid?
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: That’s the very one!!!
A look of fear and shock comes over the face of the FSW Staff Member.
FSW Staff Member: Listen I know you are new around here so let me give you a free piece of advice, STAY AS FAR AWAY AS POSSIBLE FROM ASHLEY QUID AND HATCHET GULLY!!! They are not two people someone goes looking for, do you understand me? For your own good please tell me you understand me?
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love looks at the staff member and then smiles.
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: It’s ok really, we had a lovely back and forth a dew days ago, she really is a pleasant little thing and I just wanted to say hello, so where might the two of them be?
FSW Staff Member: Seriously, listen to me…
But Tommy Love walks away from the FSW Staff Member when he sees Destiny Fairchild.
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: Perfect, the person I REALLY wanted to see, the all knowing Destiny Fairchild, nothing happens back here without you knowing about it, I was wondering if you could help me out
Tommy walks towards Destiny, who looks a little confused by what’s going on but smile as Tommy Love and Killjoy Ito walk up to her.
Destiny Fairchild: Hello there, what is it that I can do for you?
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: We are looking for Ashley Quid and her main man Hatchet Gully
The smile vanishes from Destiny’s face and she begins to shake her head no
Destiny Fairchild: No, no no no, you don’t want to go looking for them, we leave them alone.
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: Oh I know, they are the resident gangsta’s of the FSW and everyone treads lightly around them…
Destiny Fairchild: As we should, they have put bounties on people around here…
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: Because they are unable or unwilling to get their own hands dirty, listen I have been in this business for a long time and have seen my fair share of the Ashley Quid’s and Hatchet Gully’s in this business and I like to adapt the prison approach when walking into a new place and that is to find the biggest whack jobs and take a swing, it’s how you gain respect in wrestling.
Destiny Fairchild: Well lucky for you they are not here today and that will give the two of you time to rethink this suicide mission of yours. You are just getting started here in the EWC and have a promising Prime career ahead of you so I beg you to reconsider this crazy notion of wanting to pick a fight with Ashley Quid and Hatchet Gully.
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: Thanks for the free advice and concern but we are going with Plan A and YOU are going to let them know that ‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love and Killjoy Ito were here looking for their ‘punk asses’ and we are calling them out with no fear in our voices.
Destiny Fairchild: Well if that’s what you really want then, it was nice know you two!!!
Destiny pats Tommy Love on the arm as she walks away. Tommy smiles and looks at Killjoy.
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: This is going to be fun kid, now let’s go enjoy the rest of the show.
MATCH 6
Jack Nomad VS Kristian Bane
These two hosses did not disappoint at all in this hard hitting matchup. Bane and Nomad showed why they're tow of the baddest in FSW as they went at each other with everything they had. Each man took their best shots at each other, but in the end, the Nomad train kept rolling, with multiple escapes from the Bane Effect turning into a major Spine Jacker for the win.
Xavier Reid Vs Otaki
Franklin: Well, we're finally here at the end of the night, and after all the action we've seen, this is a fitting way to finish it. Tow of the best dueling it out.
Dick: Yes indeed.
Deneen: Our main event of the evening is set for one fall. Introducing first...Otaki!

A rev of a guitar causes all the lights in the arena to drop out into darkness.

ON THE ROAD TO VIRIDIAN CITY
With that yell the lights suddenly burst into life, which reveals a woman in a purple cloak standing on the stage. While only her eyes and mouth could be seen from her hood. Her milky white skin and purple hair making it rather obvious that this person is Otaki. Her cloak doesn't cover the front of her attire, a purple one-piece outfit with no sleeves or coverage for the legs, a belt around her waist with PokéBalls on them and a pair of blue boots, as Otaki starts to go down the ramp-way. Once arriving the bottom of the ramp a smile appears on Otaki's face as she raises her hood up and off, revealing not only her face but also a red gem that is on her forehead. Once she reveals her face The Emo Princess moves up the steps and gets onto the apron before bending over the middle rope to enter the ring. Once inside the ring Otaki proceeds to take off her cloak, revealing the back of her outfit to any potential man in the crowd tonight as she neatly folds her cloak up and places it on the ropes nearest her. Right afterwards she bounces over to the ropes opposite, stepping one foot on the bottom rope while stepping the other on the middle rope and takes her Pokéball off before lifting it up in the air.
Deneen: And her opponent, now residing in New York City, Xavier Reid!
The lights inside the arena go out as Cochise starts up to a now mixed reaction from the fans. A single strobe light flashes in the direction of the stage. As the lyrics come in Xavier walks out from behind the curtain and onto the stage. He paces back and forth across the stage before walking to the edge of the ramp and raising his arms into the air, crossing his forearms into a X over his head. He walks down to the ring, eyes glued on the ring and ignores the fans he passes.
Dick: These fans are slowly warming up to Mr. Reid here. You still hear the boos...
Franklin: Yeah...but you also hear some folks that appreciate Xavier Reid and his talent. One wonders if he's noticed...
Xavier marches up the steps and jumps into the ring. He heads right to the corner and climbs up to the middle rope and once again raises his arms into the air and crossed his forearms into a X.
Franklin: Alright now...here we go!
DING DING DING
The bell rings, and Xavier and Otaki look around the arena. Both, as if on cue, get the same idea, and lock up in the ring. Xavier gets the upper hand, pushing Otaki back into the corner. The ref calls for Xavier to release Otaki, but he gets a cheap chop into her chest, causing her to double over in pain. Xavier pulls her up, and chops her again. The fans react with a Wooooo! He grabs Otaki's wrist, and whips her across the ring. Otaki puts the breaks on in the middle of the ring, and reverses it, sending Xavier into the corner back first. She follows in with a clothesline. Otaki unleashes a flurry of rights and lefts to the face of Xavier. He finally blocks one, and grabs Otaki's head, and throws her into the corner instead. He then unleashes his rights and lefts, and finally turns around and nails Otaki in the face with a reverse elbow. Xavier then pulls Otaki out of the corner by her hair to the center of the ring. He then locks in a side head lock, and drops to one knee, jarring Otaki's neck.
Dick: Reid playing no games early, trying to wear down the purple princess.
Franklin: He's gonna have his work cut out. Otaki has this reservoir of energy she can tap into...God only knows where she gets it from.
Otaki gets to her feet, and Xavier pushes her off, and into the ropes. Otaki comes back, and Xavier stands tall, but she hits him with a shoulder block, sending him to the canvas. Otaki runs at the ropes on the other side, and Xavier rolls over, allowing Otaki to leap over him and into the ropes yet again. As she is coming back, Xavier hops up, catches Otaki, and sends her over with a hip toss. Both are up quickly, but Xavier hits Otaki with a short arm lariat, sending her to the canvas. He goes for the first cover..

...and Otaki Kicks out!
Franklin: First pinfall attempt, and Otaki still has a lot left.
Dick: Reid gotta do a lil more here. He's nowhere near done.
Xavier pulls Otaki up by her chin and pushes her into the ropes. He grabs Otaki's wrist, and goes to whip her to the other side of the ring, but she reverses it, and sends Xavier into the ropes. Otaki goes for a standing drop kick, but Xavier grabs the ropes, and Otaki falls to the mat. Xavier runs over, grabs Otaki's legs, and pulls them up. He then turns himself to where his back is facing a turnbuckle, and he falls backwards, pulling Otaki up with him, and catapulting him into the turnbuckle. Otaki staggers back, and Xavier grabs her by the shoulders, bringing her down hard to the mat. He then goes for the cover.

He runs at the ropes on the other side, and runs back toward her, but Otaki sidesteps Xavier as he baseball slides out to the floor.
