They say we wanted attention
Those five words of “Ignite” by Noisestorm, None Like Joshua & Veela, along with a momentary flash of bright light, immediately caused an incredibly loud, and mostly positive, response from the tonight's audience as red petals rain down from the ceiling of the arena. Shortly afterward the purple-haired lady, in her alluring red dress, Robina Hood appears on stage with the FSW Championship securely around her waist, the FSW Money in the Bank briefcase in her left hand and a microphone in her right as it doesn't take long for her theme song to die down.
Hood: I know that you're already going to see me later tonight but I really want to get something off my chest...
The Englishwoman starts and gives the crowd a couple seconds to cheer for her some more before patting the front of FSW Championship.
Hood: A couple of years ago I signed to FSW with the idea of improving myself and whatever legacy I could leave behind. A few months into my career I became the first and only member of FSW, as well as second ever woman, to win Rumble in the Bronx and ended the year sharing the ring with both Xplode and Ashton Drake. Last year I won the FSW Championship and not only managed to hold it longer than anyone else but also this show and made everyone forget the concept of Future Stars of Wrestling being a 'development show'. And right now I stand before you as the only two time FSW Champion, like I declared I would at the first FSW episode of the year, but also managed to achieve my dream of main eventing a pay-per-view in my homeland of England.
The Emo Princess gives off a soft smile as the people of Daly City chants her name for a bit before appearing to tear up a bit as she points to the crowd.
Hood: But I know that I couldn't have done this without all of you. So, from the bottom of my heart, thank you...
The milky skinned woman produces a sniffle an covers her face with her free hand as the support her loyal fans are loudly, and proudly, giving her.
Hood: Thank you so very, very, much...
Sniffles out before removing her hand and revealing a perfectly fine face with a smirk etched across it.
Hood: For being such useful puppets.
What did she just say!?! Now members the crowd looks puzzled as the Englishwoman smiles so smugly.
Hood: What? You expect me to be praising you people? You people who only pretend to like me because I'm the Champ. But hey, if you think I'm wrong then where was all your support when I was on an eight month losing streak? Where was all your support when a bounty got put on my head? Where was all your support when I had to spend nine months scratching and clawing my way back to a Championship I should've had a rematch for straight away? Where was your support when my dream got turned into a night when most my team revealed they don't even know what the word 'teamwork' meant? Or better yet...if you lot really like me, really want to support me, then where the fuck was any of you when my little Sarah was taken from me?
Accusingly and bitterly departs the lady in red's lips as she doesn't even allow the fans any time to respond.
Hood: I've made a lot of mistakes in my life, I know that, but one of the worst I've ever committed was ever letting myself remotely believe in any of you.
The bitterness in her voice only increases with each word as she now points at the people she has turned on, allowing them to boo her this time as she chuckles.
Hood: You think some boos are going to do anything? Please, why should The Greatest Showman - as well as the only person Ashton Drake couldn't beat - care about what a bunch of background characters think? Spoiler alert, I don't. Now onto some berk called Robbie Rayder, the guy who called me a joke...the very same guy I made relevant by making the mistake of choosing him as a teammate.
The Champion arrogantly says as she rubs the surface of her Championship.
Hood: Do you think you're cool, Robbie? Do you think that you're cool for calling me a cancer? Well guess what? Last year, while you were busy being nothing more than Candy's slave, I was warning people of an 'infection'...an 'infestation'...a 'plague' that was coming. Guess what? I am that plague and I am finally free from these chains known as pretending to care about people like you and those in attendance.
She glances towards the now hateful audience.
Hood: If any of you people actually think that Robbie has a chance tonight then you clearly need a cat scan. The only way Rayder can ever be anywhere close to my league, let alone fluke his way to a victory, is if I was blown up to a million pieces...and still then it'll take him years to finally get an upper hand.
Her attendance returns to a camera that is currently broadcasting her on television.
Hood: What was that Robbie? You think you can prove me wrong tonight? Feel free to try, kid, for nothing will give me more joy then seeing the dread, of realising how screwed you are, consume you. Hell, I may even play with you a little to send a message to anyone who thinks that they can just come and take my belt before finally breaking you for the victory. For it is stupid little people like you Robbie that has ruined the FSW I built. It is also because of stupid little puppets like you why, earlier today, I've called Mac and told him to extend my contract for the FSW in front of me isn't the same, awe-inspiring, one I created...this FSW is an abomination that should be put down so it can be reborn into something much better. And so I, MISS FSW HERSELF, am going to be the one who saved FSW by destroying this shitty parody of it...
The Greatest Showman grows out resentfully as her expression sharpens and darkens a little at the same time.
Hood: You wanted a cancer, Robbie? Now you've got one...and you're going to be the first casualty of it.
Coldly leaves Miss Hood's lips as she drops the microphone on the floor, not caring at all about the loud buzzing noise it made or the heavy amount of boos now targeting the woman who has just turned her back on her fans as she calmly turns and head back through the black curtain to disappear from sight.

V/O: Who will remain on top when Wrestlefest XVI is all said and done?! Dominic Sanders takes on the Undisputed World Champion Candy, this December at Wrestlefest XVI!
The final scene is a side by side of Candy and Sanders with all the pertinent information for the PPV.
Jackson: Now let’s get right into action, with a debuting Brenna Gordon facing James Larson.
Hunter: I expect big things from Ms. Gordon!
Calloway: I expect NOTHING from James Larson.
SHOW OPENER
Larson tried to crawl towards the ropes but Brenna pounded and beat on his exposed knee thus impeding any progress. But Brenna underestimated Larson’s abilities in this match. He has a long time FSW veteran and began to prove such when at the cusp of submitting, he found a second breath. He slowly but surely rolled over Brenna reversing the roles in this figure four. Brenna, trapped in her device, had no choice to release. Both competitors were slow back to their feet but Larson continued his momentum and smashed into Brenna with a Knee of Fate for a two count.
He started to feel that victory was within grasp and that the chains were truly off. Larson hit the Chain Breaker for the sure victory but the referee saw otherwise. Gordon’s foot was just over the bottom rope. It’s when he tried for the Chain Breaker again that Gordon reversed it into a powerbomb and then as he stumbled to his feet, Brenna capitalized with the Rip Tide for the one, two, three.
Hunter: Brenna was very impressive in her debut. She will do big things here.
Jackson: When we come back, Cottoneye Joe takes on Bob!
The cameras cut backstage to show Xavier Reid’s cousin Tlatoani Volando on the phone as Nikki Dupree stands next to him...
Tlatoani Volando: Yeah I know your dad wanted El Pablo to be left in a wheelchair at Prime but it wasn’t his call Perdido and I could care less how mad he is Abando...we did it Xavier’s way so Uncle Villano is just going to have to accept it…
He looks at Nikki who nods encouragement to the young member of the Volando Family…
Tlatoani Volando: Xavier wants El Pablo upright when they finally face off so his declaration that El Pablo won’t be touched by ANY member of the Volando Family will be honored and if any member of our family goes against it…
Tlatoani looks at Nikki who nods and mouths ‘say it’...
Tlatoani Volando: Will answer to Xavier Reid…
Tlatoani holds the phone away from his ear as both his cousins begin to yell into the other end and Tlatoani holds out the phone towards Nikki Dupree who waves it off, not wanting to deal with the family drama…
Tlatoani Volando: Listen, I don’t have time for this...if either of you or Uncle Villano have a problem with it Xavier will be back at La Mazmorra tomorrow night...take it up with...OH MY GOD!!!!
Nikki looks at Tlatoani Volando who covers his mouth with his hand and then points behind her...she turns and see a man she doesn’t recognize and shrugs her shoulders
Nikki Dupree: What?
Tlatoani keeps point at the man…
Nikki Dupree: You can point all you want and it’s not going to help matters...I don’t know who he is…
Tlatoani Volando: Guys...you are never going to believe who is here...Malcolm Myers!!!! Backyard wrestling isn’t lame you idiots...he’s a legend…
Not wanting to listen to Tlatoani go on about his views on backyard wrestling his cousins hang up on the other end and he looks at the dead phone and then at Nikki…
Nikki Dupree: Don’t look at me for support...I’m with your cousins on this one…
She shakes her head and walks away leaving Tlatoani Volando alone...he looks around the area and sees a chair and grabs it…
Tlatoani Volando: Hey...Malcolm...Malcolm Myers…
Malcolm Myers looks towards Tlatoani Volando as he grabs the chair and a black sharpie and walks in a rather rush towards the newest member of the FSW roster…
Tlatoani Volando: Hey man...I’m a HUGE fan...I’m Xavier Reid’s cousin and I was wondering if I could get a autograph and maybe a picture for Twitter…
Tlatoani holds out the chair, Malcolm Myers looks at the chair for a moment with a bit of a sideways glance at first but then shrugs his shoulders as he takes it from one of his fans along with the Sharpie marker.
Malcolm Myers: This is actually not the oddest thing I’ve ever had to sign, so why the hell not?
With a stroke of the marker, as it appears he has done hundreds of times before in practice, Myers signs the chair. But just as he’s about give the chair back to Tlatoani, he pauses as he runs something back through his mind.
Malcolm Myers: Did you say you were Xavier Reid’s cousin?
Tlatoani nods to that one as he watches Myers sign the chair.
Malcolm Myers: Tell you what, why don’t we pose with the chair for the photo? That outta make your timeline a little bit more interesting.
With Tlatoani on one side of the chair and Malcolm on the other side of the chair the two stand there for a moment as Nikki gets her phone ready to take the shot. As she’s fumbling around to find the camera Tlatoani leans over towards Myers.
Tlatoani Volando: Do you still do that bit your hand pretending to be possessed by the devil?
Myers’ eyes slide to the side without him ever moving his head. He thinks about it for a moment as Nikki finally gets the shot right and the two smile for the picture. Just as she puts the camera down Myers answers Tlatonai’s question.
Malcolm Myers: No. No, I don’t do that anymore.
Tlatoani Volando looks a little bit bummed out by the response.
Tlatoani Volando: Aww man, that was some funny stuff. Great bit, absolutely great. Best thing I’ve seen from a backyard fed in a long time.
Tlatoani and Malcolm shake hands and just as Tlatoani goes to take the chair back Malcolm doesn’t seem to want to let go. Slowly, the fake smile fades from his lips and a devilish snear takes its place on Myers’ lips. Tlatoani looks shocked as Myers rips the chair from his grip and in a sudden motion unloads with a…
THAWWWWACK!
Nailing Tlatoani upside the face with the steel chair! The unsuspecting Tlatoani drops to the floor as Myers stands over him and points towards Nikki with the camera in her hands.
Malcolm Myers: Hey you, why don’t you take a picture of this? And then once you do that, make sure you send it directly to Xavier Reid so when that jailbird knows who it was that did this to his cousin.
Myers drops the chair and just as he’s about to walk off he stops and holds up his left hand as if it were a puppet. He turns his head slowly towards his own hand and a smirk appears on his face. His left hand begins to flap, but Myers’ provides the voice albeit a little bit more gruff and from the side of his mouth.
Puppet Hand: I can’t believe he called me a bit.
Myers agrees.
Malcolm Myers: I know. Crazy around here.
Myers then begins to walk off as he continues to have a conversation with his own hand, complete with a couple of good laughs as staff begin to attend to Tlatoani on the ground. We head back to ringside.
Jackson: Malcolm Myers just took out Tlatolani Volando!
Calloway: Who?!
Jackson: He's... nevermind. Well, this next one should be a good one.
Hunter: These two have been all over Fighter Talk with each other, Cottoneye Joe more than anyone else.
Calloway: What the heck is Fighter Talk, and why am I not on it?!
Bob was able to roll out of the way, however, and nailed Cottoneye Joe with a pele kick when Joe turned around. In the end, it was the Bobigo that did Cottoneye Joe in, earning Bob the victory.
Hunter: Bob sends Joe home winless since joining the Future Stars of Wrestling.
Jackson: He just can't seem to find his footing here in the EWC. Folks, we will be right back with Tag Team action!
Jackson: Welcome back! This next match-up features some promising tag teams.
Hunter: The Syndicate is a veteran pair in the EWC, but the Volsung Death Squad is a very well oiled machine.
Calloway: Worked out well for them on Brawl, didn't it? They got beat by those fruit-lovers The Melon Club.
Then something happened. Stephen Kingston pulled both men out of the ring and while they were counted out, Kingston spoke to them quietly. They nodded and returned before the 10 count. What happened next is two men isolating Lexie Glass from Bane with power move after power move. Lovecraft would hit a powerslam, get a two count and tag in Bull who then leveled Glass with huge belly to belly suplex for another two count. Quick attacks, quick tags. They refused to let Bane in to even the score. After nearly five minutes of torture, Lexie Glass countered a double chokeslam attempt by kicking Bull Masterson in the knee cap and ducking under a clothesline attempt by Lovecraft and hitting a reverse neckbreaker.
Glass tagged in Bane who came in like bat out of hell. He showed his power game as well and managed to get a two count after a chokeslam of his own on Lovecraft. However, the bearded duo’s thirst to avenge their debut shortfall was too much and they put away Bane with the Decapitator to get back on the right side of the win column.
Hunter: The Volsung Death Squad gets back on the right track after that loss on Monday Night.
Jackson: That they do! When we return, an intense rivalry is renewed when Stitches takes on Frankie Romono! That's coming up next!
The cameras cut backstage to show Nikki Dupree running down the hallway toward the locker rooms...
Nikki Dupree: Xavier...Xavier...XAVIER!!!!
She pushes open the doors and looks at Xavier who is putting his boots on...his face still showing the signs of this street fight against Happy from Monday’s nights Brawl…turns to look at Nikki with great effort as he holds his neck...
Xavier Reid: What in the hell…
Nikki Dupree: It’s Tlatoani...he’s been attacked…
Xavier Reid: Happy…
Blocking out the pain and with a new found adrenaline rushing over him Xavier jumps to his feet…
Nikki Dupree: No not happy...Malcolm...Malcolm Myers…
Xavier looks at Nikki and the tilts his head a little…
Xavier Reid: Who…
Nikki Dupree: Malcolm Myers...new signee for the FSW...he’s the backyard guy from what Tlatoani was saying...anyways Tlatoani went over to him to get a picture and an autograph and the guy turn on him...hit him in the face with the chair he asked him to sign and wanted me to make sure you heard about it…
Xavier Reid: How bad is Tlatoani…
Nikki Dupree: I’m not sure...the emt’s were getting to him...he looked like he was bleeding from the head but kept asking if someone got the pic…
Xavier sits back down…
Xavier Reid: He’ll be fine...I don’t have time to deal with it right now…
Nikki Dupree: Didn’t you just tear apart a airport because Happy disrespected Tlatoani…
Xavier Reid: Yeah but Happy is the X-Division Champion and this guy...well Tlatoani is a fan of him so I doubt he’d be much value to me or even worth my time…
Nikki Dupree: But…
Xavier Reid: Nikki I just choked out the X-Division Champion...a man the majority in the EWC sees as a violent man not to be crossed and I choked him out in a parking lot...every wannabe hard ass is going to be coming at me trying to make a name for themselves at my expense...I’m not going to worry about some new addition to this roster looking to skyrocket his worth by attacking my idiot cousin because he has poor taste in who he admires...do you remember that when he downloaded every Sharknado to your computer because he said...and I quote: ‘It’s the best movie series ever made’...
Nikki Dupree: He really is a moron isn’t he...but he’s our moron Xavier and something has to be done about this…
Xavier Reid: Yeah...maybe but not tonight...tonight I arrive back to the FSW a conquering hero and in 90% of wrestling companies a win over a champion gets you a title shot but here all it gets you is tossed into a match with five other people for a shot...A SHOT at the TV Title...they should be rolling out the red carpet for me tonight but no...I’m tossed into a match with five people who have no business contending for the TV Title...what have any of them done...have they been the FSW Champion...NO...have they beat the X-Division Champion…
Nikki Dupree: Sarah Roberts did at StableWars…
Xavier Reid: Is she 3-0 when going up against the X-Division Champion...NO...yet here I stand...having to fight for something that should be mine...but…
Xavier stands back up…
Xavier Reid: But lucky for these fans here tonight all the fight isn’t out of me from Monday night...I tasted blood against Happy and Nikki...I want more...I’m like an animal that can’t quench its thirst and I want to hurt someone Nikki...I want to choke the life out of them and send a message to everyone in the EWC...that Xavier Reid is the new prize fighter of the EWC...and he’s the only one that can bring that TV Championship here to FSW...so line them up...each one of them and I’ll choke them out one by one...The Mercenary will find this hunt just too tough for him...Maurice Yensman will realize that Movember is coming to a close...Faith River will see her time is still a long time away...Sarah Roberts will choke away another big opportunity and Melody Malone...will understand one good night does not make a career...they are all playing for second place tonight and can line up and thank me...when I bring the TV Championship to the FSW…
Xavier cracks his knuckles and grabs the roll of white tape and begins to tap up his hands…
Nikki Dupree: Ok then...I’ll go check on Tlatoani and leave you to getting ready but Xavier...don’t miss tonight…
He looks at her as she exits the locker room and smiles... We go to commercial.
Jackson: We are back with more Uprising! This next match should be a full-on Brawl!
Hunter: These two men do not like each other.
Calloway: Oh and clowns don't scare YOU?
Stitches managed to secure a ropebreak and as if sensing the danger he was, ducked under a running high knee from the Blackheart of EWC. Frankie hit the ropes hard and that is when the meticulous TV champion went to work. He began to bend Frankie’s knee back in unnatural ways and while Frankie tried to remain silent from the main, small yelps of pain escaped his lips and each time Stitches heard one, he smiled a toothy grin. After playing with his victim, he locked in The Chesire Smile and fish hooked both sides of Frankie’s mouth.
The submission stopped abruptly when Frankie bit down on Stitches’ fingers. Out of nowhere, Frankie hit a RomonoBomb. Only for a two count. He went for it again. Stitches fought out of it and reintroduced Frankie to the Sounds of Silence. For only a two count.
Deep into this match, both men stood inches away from each other. Sweaty and disheveled. And in Stitches’ case, his face paint was cracked and smeared - making him look even more scary than he already was. Their glare was wordless and they both sprung into action. Hammering each other with rapid punches and kicks. Gouging at each other eyes. Just trying to hurt one another as the Cow Palace Crowd relished in the violence. Stitches battled Frankie into the corner and managed to get him secured on the top turnbuckle. Stitches lifted Frankie into the air for the Crimson Arrow and got a knee to the temple. Out of sheer desperation, Frankie sacrificed his own body and managed a spectacular top rope Air Crash Raid.
He slung one arm over Stitches chest and managed to get the three count before collapsing from exhaustion himself.
Hunter: Frankie and Stitches have been so evenly matched in all of their fights. It's only appropriate that Frankie came away with the victory over the Television Champion after losing their last match.
Jackson: We could watch these two fight many, many more matches. We will be right back with the FSW Champion!
The camera cuts backstage to show Lisa Goldrush standing next to a stack of boxes looking down at her phone when something catches her eyes, she does a bit of a double take and then…
Lisa Goldrush: Excuse me but what in the world are YOU doing here?
The camera fades back to show the smiling face of ‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love as he looks at Lisa…
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: Oh perfect an intern, could you please point me in the direction of your General Manager Brandon Carter Banks’ office please.
Lisa Goldrush: You know damn well I’m not an intern.
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: Oh I’m sorry, secretary?
Clearly annoyed with Tommy Lisa exhales loudly…
Lisa Goldrush: What are you doing here Tommy, Prime is on break and you’re supposed to be on vacation...per your Twitter account.
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: We are on vacation and our first stop was San Francisco to see The Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz Island, Fisherman’s Wharf…
Lisa Goldsmith: Yeah something does smell fishy…
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: And then I remembered this is where the 4th best brand in the EWC has there show…
Tommy laughs as Lisa is about to say something in defense of the FSW…
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: Oh calm down honey, just a little post StableWars humor, I know you tried your best and nobody will remember y’all were the first brand eliminated next week but I figure why not drop in while I was in town and have a little chat with your GM…
Lisa Goldrush: And what makes you think Mr. Banks would want to talk to a loud mouth like you?
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: Lisa, I think you have the wrong impression of me, I’m here with a great opportunity for Mr. Banks and the FSW...one I don’t think he can pass up…
Lisa Goldrush: I don’t think anyone here wants to buy what you’re selling Tommy…
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: I wouldn’t be so quick to show me the door Lisa, the FSW has a bit of a WrestleFest problem…
Lisa Goldrush: A Wrestle...what
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: A WrestleFest problem Lisa, as you know the EWC’s last ppv of the year is coming up on December 17th and the card looks amazing so far...Prime’s very own Candy is defending the EWC Undisputed Championship against the 2018 Rumble in the Bronx winner Dominic Sanders…
Lisa Goldrush: Yeah I’m aware…
But Tommy cuts her off and continues…
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: And last Monday night of Brawl Kenneth Williams won the right to face International Champion Griffin Hawkins, the X-Division Championship match was also locked as Happy will defend against Rob Garcia and in a tag team showdown NSFW defends against Prime’s favorite tag team the Melon Club…
Lisa Goldrush: The Melon Club are coming to FSW in 2019 but I still don’t under…
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: And this Friday night on Rampage in the Main Event we find out who will challenge Ace King for the US Championship which leaves two matches open…
Lisa Goldrush: I’m aware that…
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: Now I know tonight six Future Stars will enter the ring to fight for the right to face Prime’s very own Stitches for the TV Championship but there is one name oddly left without a clear opponent for WrestleFest…
Lisa Goldrush: Prime’s Indy Champio…
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: The FSW Champion Megan Treamon and I’m here tonight to offer Brandon Carter Banks a helping hand, to let him know that due to FSW’s little problem…
Lisa Goldrush: Now wait one min, the FSW doesn’t have a little problem and we sure as hell don’t need your help…
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: Oh but you do little one, you do. See Megan Treamon has no clear opponent for WrestleFest, there is no number one contender match set up here tonight like they did for the TV Title match...or like Brawl and Rampage did, no she is booked in a singles match against Robbie ‘Aire’ Rayder…
Lisa Goldrush: Who with a win could put himself right in line for a title match at WrestFe…
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: If...IF and that’s a big if Lisa and IF he loses then what? Put someone from that DIDN’T win the right to face the TV Champion...what’s that say about your very own Championship, that it’s LESS than the TV Championship, oh no, that will not do Lisa so I’m here to SAVE the FSW and offer my services...well Killjoy Ito’s to be more specific.
Lisa Goldrush: You think for one sec…
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: Killjoy Ito beat the FSW Champion Megan Treamon last Sunday night in New York, he is the clear cut choice to face your champion at WrestleFest even IF Candy’s lesser half somehow lucks his way into a cheap win tonight...Killjoy beat her when she was rested and not coming off of two losses and a trip back from South Africa…
Lisa Goldrush: Wait just one se…
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: Killjoy Ito is the ONLY choice the FSW has…
A low chuckle hangs in the air before a familiar face resurfaces from the shadows. With a Bud Light tall boy in his right hand Smokey Jones walks into view.
Smokey Jones: Killjoy who is the only option the FSW has you say?
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: That's the greatest talent from the Prime Roster known as 'The Future Ace' Killjoy Ito.
Smokey Jones: Oh yeah I remember him now, you're talking about that client of yours that I demolished in the middle of the ring when he came to my show looking for competition.
Smokey takes a sip from his tall boy before placing the can in the open hand of Tommy Love.
Smokey Jones: Hold that for a second.
Smokey throws his left arm across the shoulders of Tommy Love and pulls him in close.
Smokey Jones: Now listen up, just in case you didn't know this already, let me make it perfectly clear for you. That victory you're client has over Megan Treamon doesn't mean a damn thing when it comes to Megan Treamon and the FSW Championship.
Tommy Love steps back removing Smokey's arm from around his shoulders and creating space between himself and Smokey Jones in the process. He quickly regains his composure and brushes his shirt off before pushing his glasses back into place before responding.
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: and just why the hell not?
Smokey Jones: Well, the answer to that is because Megan Treamon, the FSW Championship and myself have some dire unfinished business we need to settle and three's already a crowd. So with that being said, my personal advice is for you two to enjoy the rest of your vacation and take your asses back to Prime before you have a problem on your hands.
Tommy Love gets all flustered and shouts out to Smokey.
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: Take your damn beer can back i'm not the janitor here.
Smokey pulls a six pack off the nearest table and holds it up for Tommy Love to see.
Smokey Jones: Naw, you can keep it I have a fresh six pack right here.
Smokey walks off screen leaving Tommy and Lisa to themselves. Cut back to ringside.
Jackson: Well, I don't know what is going on with that situation, but we are back at ringside with the FSW Champion!
Hunter: She's already in the ring and she looks determined to take down Robbie Rayder.
Calloway: Who HASN'T taken down Robbie Rayder?
Robina spun Robbie around and then moved away from the corner, running and delivering a hard dropkick sending him to his rear. For the second time this week, Robina Hood delivered a stinkface to her opponent. She got Robbie up out of the corner to set him up for the Grand Finale, but Robbie was able to slip out of it.
Moments later, Robbie was able to hit Robina with a belly-to-back suplex, leaving the champ dazed. Robbie nailed Robina with the Shock & Awe, sending her to the mat. Rayder proceeded to climb up to the top turnbuckle and leap off, nailing Robina with Aire Rayde V.1 for the upset victory!
Hunter: What a victory for Robbie Rayder!
Jackson: He defeats the FSW Champion in the season finale! You better believe he is setting himself up for a shot at that Championship belt!
Hunter: When we come back from the commercial break, we've got our Main Event for the evening!
ELIMINATION MATCH
WINNER FACES STITCHES AT WRESTLEFEST FOR THE TELEVISION CHAMPIONSHIP
SARAH ROBERTS
VS MELODY MALONE
VS FAITH RIVERS
VS MAURICE YENSMAN
VS XAVIER REID
VS MERCENARY
Gordon: The following is our main event of the evening!
Jackson: Welcome back FSW faithful, and as you just heard from Stan Gordon, we are all set for our main event. Six FSW superstars will step foot into the ring in order to determine the number one contender for the Television Championship.
Calloway: Five. Look.
We cut to the outside of the Cow Palace where we see Maurice Yensman with a bunch of firefighters surrounding him. Maurice's arm is stuck in the sewage drain. Lisa Goldrush is standing by.
Goldrush: Maurice. What is going on here?
Yensman: Well, lady. My goddamn arm got stuck in the sewer. What in the hell else does it look like?
Goldrush: But... why?
Yensman: Look. A pack of smokes is $7 and change out here! When you drop it into the sewer you don't NOT go after it. That Television belt thingamajig will be there later. This pack of smokes has precisely two more hours of survival before it's no longer smokable. Now. Do you mind?!
Goldrush: Ooookay. Back to you guys.
We cut back to the ring.
Hunter: That's fine. That guy weirds me out anyway. Probably better off to not have him out here.
Gordon: The Mercenary has been eliminated!
With four competitors remaining, this one went back and forth for awhile. Sarah Roberts and Faith Rivers squared off in one corner while Xavier Reid duked it out with Melody Malone. Melody, who has been on a hot streak as of late, reversed an Irish-whip attempt from Reid and sent the lone male crashing into Faith Rivers in the opposite corner. Sarah Roberts ran at Melody and leveled her with a running uppercut, knocking Melody out of the ring.
Faith Rivers took the brunt of the blow from Xavier crashing into her. But she was able to fight back. She nailed Xavier with a dropkick. However, upon returning to her feet, Xavier nailed her with an X-Ecution. Reid then locked in the X'ed Out on Rivers, who struggled valiantly but had no choice but to tap out.
Gordon: Faith Rivers has been eliminated!
With Melody still outside of the ring, Sarah went straight to work on Xavier Reid. She dropped an elbow on his sternum before he could even release the X'ed Out on Faith Rivers. Sarah pulled Reid to his feet and went for the Lights Out, but Reid dodged the attempt and hit her with a knee to the side of the head. Sarah reeled backwards but was able to dodge a roundhouse kick from the former FSW Champion. As Xavier spun back around, Melody Malone tripped him up from outside the ring, causing him to fall flat on his face.
Melody slid back into the ring and her and Sarah went to work on Reid, double-teaming him. They set him up onto the top turnbuckle and delivers a double-suplex to him right in the middle of the ring. Reid attempted to fight back with some kicks to the ladies' legs, but the Deerfield Destroyer managed to hit him with the Lights Out and Malone followed it up with Nightmare Fuel to put the former champ away.
Gordon: Xavier Reid has been eliminated!
The two ladies squared off in the ring. They stood a few feet apart, sizing each other up. Malone has been hot as of late, but Roberts is always dangerous. They locked up in the middle of the ring. Roberts put Malone in a hammerlock, but Malone quickly reversed it into an attempt at Requiem. Roberts was able to escape the move, however, and Malone landed on her feet. Roberts turned around and delivered a swift kick to the temple of Melody Malone. While down on the ground, Roberts locked in the Highlight of the Night!
Malone clawed her way towards the ropes, just barely being able to reach out and cause the hold to be broken. Roberts dragged Malone back to the middle of the ring and looked to lock it in again, but Malone was able to shift her weight and lean back into Roberts, whose shoulders hit the ground. After a long two and a half count, Roberts kicked out.
The two got back to their feet and Malone went to kick Roberts in the stomach. Roberts caught her foot, leading to en enziguri from Malone. Malone, trying to seize the opportunity, went up to the top rope to go for the leg drop. She leapt and Roberts moved out of the way, causing Malone to crash onto her rear hard.
Roberts got up to her feet and pulled Malone up to hers, as well. Roberts was able to nail Malone with the Lights Out and cover her opponent for the three count and earn the opportunity for the Television Championship!
Hunter: And Sarah Roberts will go on to WrestleFest to face Stitches for the Television Championship! What a match that will be!
Jackson: What a night this was! What a season it was! For Ruthann Hunter and Todd Calloway, I'm Tom Jackson!
Hunter: Goodnight everybody!
Those five words of “Ignite” by Noisestorm, None Like Joshua & Veela, along with a momentary flash of bright light, immediately caused an incredibly loud, and mostly positive, response from the tonight's audience as red petals rain down from the ceiling of the arena. Shortly afterward the purple-haired lady, in her alluring red dress, Robina Hood appears on stage with the FSW Championship securely around her waist, the FSW Money in the Bank briefcase in her left hand and a microphone in her right as it doesn't take long for her theme song to die down.
Hood: I know that you're already going to see me later tonight but I really want to get something off my chest...
The Englishwoman starts and gives the crowd a couple seconds to cheer for her some more before patting the front of FSW Championship.
Hood: A couple of years ago I signed to FSW with the idea of improving myself and whatever legacy I could leave behind. A few months into my career I became the first and only member of FSW, as well as second ever woman, to win Rumble in the Bronx and ended the year sharing the ring with both Xplode and Ashton Drake. Last year I won the FSW Championship and not only managed to hold it longer than anyone else but also this show and made everyone forget the concept of Future Stars of Wrestling being a 'development show'. And right now I stand before you as the only two time FSW Champion, like I declared I would at the first FSW episode of the year, but also managed to achieve my dream of main eventing a pay-per-view in my homeland of England.
The Emo Princess gives off a soft smile as the people of Daly City chants her name for a bit before appearing to tear up a bit as she points to the crowd.
Hood: But I know that I couldn't have done this without all of you. So, from the bottom of my heart, thank you...
The milky skinned woman produces a sniffle an covers her face with her free hand as the support her loyal fans are loudly, and proudly, giving her.
Hood: Thank you so very, very, much...
Sniffles out before removing her hand and revealing a perfectly fine face with a smirk etched across it.
Hood: For being such useful puppets.
What did she just say!?! Now members the crowd looks puzzled as the Englishwoman smiles so smugly.
Hood: What? You expect me to be praising you people? You people who only pretend to like me because I'm the Champ. But hey, if you think I'm wrong then where was all your support when I was on an eight month losing streak? Where was all your support when a bounty got put on my head? Where was all your support when I had to spend nine months scratching and clawing my way back to a Championship I should've had a rematch for straight away? Where was your support when my dream got turned into a night when most my team revealed they don't even know what the word 'teamwork' meant? Or better yet...if you lot really like me, really want to support me, then where the fuck was any of you when my little Sarah was taken from me?
Accusingly and bitterly departs the lady in red's lips as she doesn't even allow the fans any time to respond.
Hood: I've made a lot of mistakes in my life, I know that, but one of the worst I've ever committed was ever letting myself remotely believe in any of you.
The bitterness in her voice only increases with each word as she now points at the people she has turned on, allowing them to boo her this time as she chuckles.
Hood: You think some boos are going to do anything? Please, why should The Greatest Showman - as well as the only person Ashton Drake couldn't beat - care about what a bunch of background characters think? Spoiler alert, I don't. Now onto some berk called Robbie Rayder, the guy who called me a joke...the very same guy I made relevant by making the mistake of choosing him as a teammate.
The Champion arrogantly says as she rubs the surface of her Championship.
Hood: Do you think you're cool, Robbie? Do you think that you're cool for calling me a cancer? Well guess what? Last year, while you were busy being nothing more than Candy's slave, I was warning people of an 'infection'...an 'infestation'...a 'plague' that was coming. Guess what? I am that plague and I am finally free from these chains known as pretending to care about people like you and those in attendance.
She glances towards the now hateful audience.
Hood: If any of you people actually think that Robbie has a chance tonight then you clearly need a cat scan. The only way Rayder can ever be anywhere close to my league, let alone fluke his way to a victory, is if I was blown up to a million pieces...and still then it'll take him years to finally get an upper hand.
Her attendance returns to a camera that is currently broadcasting her on television.
Hood: What was that Robbie? You think you can prove me wrong tonight? Feel free to try, kid, for nothing will give me more joy then seeing the dread, of realising how screwed you are, consume you. Hell, I may even play with you a little to send a message to anyone who thinks that they can just come and take my belt before finally breaking you for the victory. For it is stupid little people like you Robbie that has ruined the FSW I built. It is also because of stupid little puppets like you why, earlier today, I've called Mac and told him to extend my contract for the FSW in front of me isn't the same, awe-inspiring, one I created...this FSW is an abomination that should be put down so it can be reborn into something much better. And so I, MISS FSW HERSELF, am going to be the one who saved FSW by destroying this shitty parody of it...
The Greatest Showman grows out resentfully as her expression sharpens and darkens a little at the same time.
Hood: You wanted a cancer, Robbie? Now you've got one...and you're going to be the first casualty of it.
Coldly leaves Miss Hood's lips as she drops the microphone on the floor, not caring at all about the loud buzzing noise it made or the heavy amount of boos now targeting the woman who has just turned her back on her fans as she calmly turns and head back through the black curtain to disappear from sight.

SHOW OPENER
BRENNA GORDON
VS JAMES LARSON
DING DING DING
Tonight’s opener featured the returning James Larson and the enigmatic Brenna Gordon. Larson tried to shake off the ring rust early on but Gordon proved to be rather slippery. Larson early was just a moment away in turning the tides of this bout with a Death Drop but Gordan rolled through and tripped Larson up. She began to torture Larson with various submissions targeted at The Man on Chains’ knees. As soon as Larson managed to secure a rope break from a kneebar, the deceptively strong Brenna dragged him into the middle of the ring for the old school but ever effective figure four leg lock.Larson tried to crawl towards the ropes but Brenna pounded and beat on his exposed knee thus impeding any progress. But Brenna underestimated Larson’s abilities in this match. He has a long time FSW veteran and began to prove such when at the cusp of submitting, he found a second breath. He slowly but surely rolled over Brenna reversing the roles in this figure four. Brenna, trapped in her device, had no choice to release. Both competitors were slow back to their feet but Larson continued his momentum and smashed into Brenna with a Knee of Fate for a two count.
He started to feel that victory was within grasp and that the chains were truly off. Larson hit the Chain Breaker for the sure victory but the referee saw otherwise. Gordon’s foot was just over the bottom rope. It’s when he tried for the Chain Breaker again that Gordon reversed it into a powerbomb and then as he stumbled to his feet, Brenna capitalized with the Rip Tide for the one, two, three.
DING DING DING
Gordon: Your winner….Brennaaaaa Gooooordon!Hunter: Brenna was very impressive in her debut. She will do big things here.
Jackson: When we come back, Cottoneye Joe takes on Bob!
The cameras cut backstage to show Xavier Reid’s cousin Tlatoani Volando on the phone as Nikki Dupree stands next to him...
Tlatoani Volando: Yeah I know your dad wanted El Pablo to be left in a wheelchair at Prime but it wasn’t his call Perdido and I could care less how mad he is Abando...we did it Xavier’s way so Uncle Villano is just going to have to accept it…
He looks at Nikki who nods encouragement to the young member of the Volando Family…
Tlatoani Volando: Xavier wants El Pablo upright when they finally face off so his declaration that El Pablo won’t be touched by ANY member of the Volando Family will be honored and if any member of our family goes against it…
Tlatoani looks at Nikki who nods and mouths ‘say it’...
Tlatoani Volando: Will answer to Xavier Reid…
Tlatoani holds the phone away from his ear as both his cousins begin to yell into the other end and Tlatoani holds out the phone towards Nikki Dupree who waves it off, not wanting to deal with the family drama…
Tlatoani Volando: Listen, I don’t have time for this...if either of you or Uncle Villano have a problem with it Xavier will be back at La Mazmorra tomorrow night...take it up with...OH MY GOD!!!!
Nikki looks at Tlatoani Volando who covers his mouth with his hand and then points behind her...she turns and see a man she doesn’t recognize and shrugs her shoulders
Nikki Dupree: What?
Tlatoani keeps point at the man…
Nikki Dupree: You can point all you want and it’s not going to help matters...I don’t know who he is…
Tlatoani Volando: Guys...you are never going to believe who is here...Malcolm Myers!!!! Backyard wrestling isn’t lame you idiots...he’s a legend…
Not wanting to listen to Tlatoani go on about his views on backyard wrestling his cousins hang up on the other end and he looks at the dead phone and then at Nikki…
Nikki Dupree: Don’t look at me for support...I’m with your cousins on this one…
She shakes her head and walks away leaving Tlatoani Volando alone...he looks around the area and sees a chair and grabs it…
Tlatoani Volando: Hey...Malcolm...Malcolm Myers…
Malcolm Myers looks towards Tlatoani Volando as he grabs the chair and a black sharpie and walks in a rather rush towards the newest member of the FSW roster…
Tlatoani Volando: Hey man...I’m a HUGE fan...I’m Xavier Reid’s cousin and I was wondering if I could get a autograph and maybe a picture for Twitter…
Tlatoani holds out the chair, Malcolm Myers looks at the chair for a moment with a bit of a sideways glance at first but then shrugs his shoulders as he takes it from one of his fans along with the Sharpie marker.
Malcolm Myers: This is actually not the oddest thing I’ve ever had to sign, so why the hell not?
With a stroke of the marker, as it appears he has done hundreds of times before in practice, Myers signs the chair. But just as he’s about give the chair back to Tlatoani, he pauses as he runs something back through his mind.
Malcolm Myers: Did you say you were Xavier Reid’s cousin?
Tlatoani nods to that one as he watches Myers sign the chair.
Malcolm Myers: Tell you what, why don’t we pose with the chair for the photo? That outta make your timeline a little bit more interesting.
With Tlatoani on one side of the chair and Malcolm on the other side of the chair the two stand there for a moment as Nikki gets her phone ready to take the shot. As she’s fumbling around to find the camera Tlatoani leans over towards Myers.
Tlatoani Volando: Do you still do that bit your hand pretending to be possessed by the devil?
Myers’ eyes slide to the side without him ever moving his head. He thinks about it for a moment as Nikki finally gets the shot right and the two smile for the picture. Just as she puts the camera down Myers answers Tlatonai’s question.
Malcolm Myers: No. No, I don’t do that anymore.
Tlatoani Volando looks a little bit bummed out by the response.
Tlatoani Volando: Aww man, that was some funny stuff. Great bit, absolutely great. Best thing I’ve seen from a backyard fed in a long time.
Tlatoani and Malcolm shake hands and just as Tlatoani goes to take the chair back Malcolm doesn’t seem to want to let go. Slowly, the fake smile fades from his lips and a devilish snear takes its place on Myers’ lips. Tlatoani looks shocked as Myers rips the chair from his grip and in a sudden motion unloads with a…
THAWWWWACK!
Nailing Tlatoani upside the face with the steel chair! The unsuspecting Tlatoani drops to the floor as Myers stands over him and points towards Nikki with the camera in her hands.
Malcolm Myers: Hey you, why don’t you take a picture of this? And then once you do that, make sure you send it directly to Xavier Reid so when that jailbird knows who it was that did this to his cousin.
Myers drops the chair and just as he’s about to walk off he stops and holds up his left hand as if it were a puppet. He turns his head slowly towards his own hand and a smirk appears on his face. His left hand begins to flap, but Myers’ provides the voice albeit a little bit more gruff and from the side of his mouth.
Puppet Hand: I can’t believe he called me a bit.
Myers agrees.
Malcolm Myers: I know. Crazy around here.
Myers then begins to walk off as he continues to have a conversation with his own hand, complete with a couple of good laughs as staff begin to attend to Tlatoani on the ground. We head back to ringside.
Jackson: Malcolm Myers just took out Tlatolani Volando!
Calloway: Who?!
Jackson: He's... nevermind. Well, this next one should be a good one.
Hunter: These two have been all over Fighter Talk with each other, Cottoneye Joe more than anyone else.
Calloway: What the heck is Fighter Talk, and why am I not on it?!
COTTONEYE JOE
VS BOB
DING DING DING
These two fought back and forth in an even battle from the beginning. Cottoneye Joe gained a clear advantage when he hit Bob with a low blow while the referee was not looking. He nailed Bob with a Prince of Pain, but was only to get a two and a half count. After some jawing with the referee about a slow count, Cottoneye Joe hit Bob with a slingblade and decided that was the end. He ascended to the top turnbuckle and leapt off, looking for the Hail Mary. Bob was able to roll out of the way, however, and nailed Cottoneye Joe with a pele kick when Joe turned around. In the end, it was the Bobigo that did Cottoneye Joe in, earning Bob the victory.
DING DING DING
Gordon: Your winner….BOB!Hunter: Bob sends Joe home winless since joining the Future Stars of Wrestling.
Jackson: He just can't seem to find his footing here in the EWC. Folks, we will be right back with Tag Team action!
Jackson: Welcome back! This next match-up features some promising tag teams.
Hunter: The Syndicate is a veteran pair in the EWC, but the Volsung Death Squad is a very well oiled machine.
Calloway: Worked out well for them on Brawl, didn't it? They got beat by those fruit-lovers The Melon Club.
VOLSUNG DEATH SQUAD
VS THE SYNDICATE
DING DING DING
The Völsung Death Squad looked to rebound from their tag team debut defeat on Monday Night Brawl. But Bull Masterson and Tim Lovecraft had a great challenge ahead of them. The Syndicate, EWC’s longest tenured tag team, were looking to make a statement of their own in 2018. At first, Kristian Bane and Lexie Glass managed to channel VSD’s anger against them. That’s Baneful nearly surprised Tim Lovecraft for a three count.Then something happened. Stephen Kingston pulled both men out of the ring and while they were counted out, Kingston spoke to them quietly. They nodded and returned before the 10 count. What happened next is two men isolating Lexie Glass from Bane with power move after power move. Lovecraft would hit a powerslam, get a two count and tag in Bull who then leveled Glass with huge belly to belly suplex for another two count. Quick attacks, quick tags. They refused to let Bane in to even the score. After nearly five minutes of torture, Lexie Glass countered a double chokeslam attempt by kicking Bull Masterson in the knee cap and ducking under a clothesline attempt by Lovecraft and hitting a reverse neckbreaker.
Glass tagged in Bane who came in like bat out of hell. He showed his power game as well and managed to get a two count after a chokeslam of his own on Lovecraft. However, the bearded duo’s thirst to avenge their debut shortfall was too much and they put away Bane with the Decapitator to get back on the right side of the win column.
DING DING DING
Gordon: Your winners….Volsung Death Squad!Hunter: The Volsung Death Squad gets back on the right track after that loss on Monday Night.
Jackson: That they do! When we return, an intense rivalry is renewed when Stitches takes on Frankie Romono! That's coming up next!
The cameras cut backstage to show Nikki Dupree running down the hallway toward the locker rooms...
Nikki Dupree: Xavier...Xavier...XAVIER!!!!
She pushes open the doors and looks at Xavier who is putting his boots on...his face still showing the signs of this street fight against Happy from Monday’s nights Brawl…turns to look at Nikki with great effort as he holds his neck...
Xavier Reid: What in the hell…
Nikki Dupree: It’s Tlatoani...he’s been attacked…
Xavier Reid: Happy…
Blocking out the pain and with a new found adrenaline rushing over him Xavier jumps to his feet…
Nikki Dupree: No not happy...Malcolm...Malcolm Myers…
Xavier looks at Nikki and the tilts his head a little…
Xavier Reid: Who…
Nikki Dupree: Malcolm Myers...new signee for the FSW...he’s the backyard guy from what Tlatoani was saying...anyways Tlatoani went over to him to get a picture and an autograph and the guy turn on him...hit him in the face with the chair he asked him to sign and wanted me to make sure you heard about it…
Xavier Reid: How bad is Tlatoani…
Nikki Dupree: I’m not sure...the emt’s were getting to him...he looked like he was bleeding from the head but kept asking if someone got the pic…
Xavier sits back down…
Xavier Reid: He’ll be fine...I don’t have time to deal with it right now…
Nikki Dupree: Didn’t you just tear apart a airport because Happy disrespected Tlatoani…
Xavier Reid: Yeah but Happy is the X-Division Champion and this guy...well Tlatoani is a fan of him so I doubt he’d be much value to me or even worth my time…
Nikki Dupree: But…
Xavier Reid: Nikki I just choked out the X-Division Champion...a man the majority in the EWC sees as a violent man not to be crossed and I choked him out in a parking lot...every wannabe hard ass is going to be coming at me trying to make a name for themselves at my expense...I’m not going to worry about some new addition to this roster looking to skyrocket his worth by attacking my idiot cousin because he has poor taste in who he admires...do you remember that when he downloaded every Sharknado to your computer because he said...and I quote: ‘It’s the best movie series ever made’...
Nikki Dupree: He really is a moron isn’t he...but he’s our moron Xavier and something has to be done about this…
Xavier Reid: Yeah...maybe but not tonight...tonight I arrive back to the FSW a conquering hero and in 90% of wrestling companies a win over a champion gets you a title shot but here all it gets you is tossed into a match with five other people for a shot...A SHOT at the TV Title...they should be rolling out the red carpet for me tonight but no...I’m tossed into a match with five people who have no business contending for the TV Title...what have any of them done...have they been the FSW Champion...NO...have they beat the X-Division Champion…
Nikki Dupree: Sarah Roberts did at StableWars…
Xavier Reid: Is she 3-0 when going up against the X-Division Champion...NO...yet here I stand...having to fight for something that should be mine...but…
Xavier stands back up…
Xavier Reid: But lucky for these fans here tonight all the fight isn’t out of me from Monday night...I tasted blood against Happy and Nikki...I want more...I’m like an animal that can’t quench its thirst and I want to hurt someone Nikki...I want to choke the life out of them and send a message to everyone in the EWC...that Xavier Reid is the new prize fighter of the EWC...and he’s the only one that can bring that TV Championship here to FSW...so line them up...each one of them and I’ll choke them out one by one...The Mercenary will find this hunt just too tough for him...Maurice Yensman will realize that Movember is coming to a close...Faith River will see her time is still a long time away...Sarah Roberts will choke away another big opportunity and Melody Malone...will understand one good night does not make a career...they are all playing for second place tonight and can line up and thank me...when I bring the TV Championship to the FSW…
Xavier cracks his knuckles and grabs the roll of white tape and begins to tap up his hands…
Nikki Dupree: Ok then...I’ll go check on Tlatoani and leave you to getting ready but Xavier...don’t miss tonight…
He looks at her as she exits the locker room and smiles... We go to commercial.
Jackson: We are back with more Uprising! This next match should be a full-on Brawl!
Hunter: These two men do not like each other.
Calloway: Oh and clowns don't scare YOU?
STITCHES
VS FRANKIE ROMONO
DING DING DING
This match between Frankie and Stitches was full circle for these two. Stitches in their last match sent Frankie into a seemingly endless downward spiral. Stitches meanwhile was prominent in his role as Television Champion. This match wasn’t about gold. This match was about Frankie showing this wicked clown exactly what he had learned since their last encounter. Frankie early on seemed to have a counter for anything Stitches tried to do. Frankie reversed all of the momentum from Stitches’ Lethal Lariat into a reverse fujiwara armbar. The look in Frankie’s face as he wrenched back on the clown’s arm was nearly psychotic. Stitches managed to secure a ropebreak and as if sensing the danger he was, ducked under a running high knee from the Blackheart of EWC. Frankie hit the ropes hard and that is when the meticulous TV champion went to work. He began to bend Frankie’s knee back in unnatural ways and while Frankie tried to remain silent from the main, small yelps of pain escaped his lips and each time Stitches heard one, he smiled a toothy grin. After playing with his victim, he locked in The Chesire Smile and fish hooked both sides of Frankie’s mouth.
The submission stopped abruptly when Frankie bit down on Stitches’ fingers. Out of nowhere, Frankie hit a RomonoBomb. Only for a two count. He went for it again. Stitches fought out of it and reintroduced Frankie to the Sounds of Silence. For only a two count.
Deep into this match, both men stood inches away from each other. Sweaty and disheveled. And in Stitches’ case, his face paint was cracked and smeared - making him look even more scary than he already was. Their glare was wordless and they both sprung into action. Hammering each other with rapid punches and kicks. Gouging at each other eyes. Just trying to hurt one another as the Cow Palace Crowd relished in the violence. Stitches battled Frankie into the corner and managed to get him secured on the top turnbuckle. Stitches lifted Frankie into the air for the Crimson Arrow and got a knee to the temple. Out of sheer desperation, Frankie sacrificed his own body and managed a spectacular top rope Air Crash Raid.
He slung one arm over Stitches chest and managed to get the three count before collapsing from exhaustion himself.
DING DING DING
Gordon: Your winner….FRAAAANKIIIIE ROMONOOOO!Hunter: Frankie and Stitches have been so evenly matched in all of their fights. It's only appropriate that Frankie came away with the victory over the Television Champion after losing their last match.
Jackson: We could watch these two fight many, many more matches. We will be right back with the FSW Champion!
The camera cuts backstage to show Lisa Goldrush standing next to a stack of boxes looking down at her phone when something catches her eyes, she does a bit of a double take and then…
Lisa Goldrush: Excuse me but what in the world are YOU doing here?
The camera fades back to show the smiling face of ‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love as he looks at Lisa…
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: Oh perfect an intern, could you please point me in the direction of your General Manager Brandon Carter Banks’ office please.
Lisa Goldrush: You know damn well I’m not an intern.
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: Oh I’m sorry, secretary?
Clearly annoyed with Tommy Lisa exhales loudly…
Lisa Goldrush: What are you doing here Tommy, Prime is on break and you’re supposed to be on vacation...per your Twitter account.
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: We are on vacation and our first stop was San Francisco to see The Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz Island, Fisherman’s Wharf…
Lisa Goldsmith: Yeah something does smell fishy…
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: And then I remembered this is where the 4th best brand in the EWC has there show…
Tommy laughs as Lisa is about to say something in defense of the FSW…
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: Oh calm down honey, just a little post StableWars humor, I know you tried your best and nobody will remember y’all were the first brand eliminated next week but I figure why not drop in while I was in town and have a little chat with your GM…
Lisa Goldrush: And what makes you think Mr. Banks would want to talk to a loud mouth like you?
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: Lisa, I think you have the wrong impression of me, I’m here with a great opportunity for Mr. Banks and the FSW...one I don’t think he can pass up…
Lisa Goldrush: I don’t think anyone here wants to buy what you’re selling Tommy…
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: I wouldn’t be so quick to show me the door Lisa, the FSW has a bit of a WrestleFest problem…
Lisa Goldrush: A Wrestle...what
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: A WrestleFest problem Lisa, as you know the EWC’s last ppv of the year is coming up on December 17th and the card looks amazing so far...Prime’s very own Candy is defending the EWC Undisputed Championship against the 2018 Rumble in the Bronx winner Dominic Sanders…
Lisa Goldrush: Yeah I’m aware…
But Tommy cuts her off and continues…
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: And last Monday night of Brawl Kenneth Williams won the right to face International Champion Griffin Hawkins, the X-Division Championship match was also locked as Happy will defend against Rob Garcia and in a tag team showdown NSFW defends against Prime’s favorite tag team the Melon Club…
Lisa Goldrush: The Melon Club are coming to FSW in 2019 but I still don’t under…
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: And this Friday night on Rampage in the Main Event we find out who will challenge Ace King for the US Championship which leaves two matches open…
Lisa Goldrush: I’m aware that…
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: Now I know tonight six Future Stars will enter the ring to fight for the right to face Prime’s very own Stitches for the TV Championship but there is one name oddly left without a clear opponent for WrestleFest…
Lisa Goldrush: Prime’s Indy Champio…
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: The FSW Champion Megan Treamon and I’m here tonight to offer Brandon Carter Banks a helping hand, to let him know that due to FSW’s little problem…
Lisa Goldrush: Now wait one min, the FSW doesn’t have a little problem and we sure as hell don’t need your help…
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: Oh but you do little one, you do. See Megan Treamon has no clear opponent for WrestleFest, there is no number one contender match set up here tonight like they did for the TV Title match...or like Brawl and Rampage did, no she is booked in a singles match against Robbie ‘Aire’ Rayder…
Lisa Goldrush: Who with a win could put himself right in line for a title match at WrestFe…
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: If...IF and that’s a big if Lisa and IF he loses then what? Put someone from that DIDN’T win the right to face the TV Champion...what’s that say about your very own Championship, that it’s LESS than the TV Championship, oh no, that will not do Lisa so I’m here to SAVE the FSW and offer my services...well Killjoy Ito’s to be more specific.
Lisa Goldrush: You think for one sec…
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: Killjoy Ito beat the FSW Champion Megan Treamon last Sunday night in New York, he is the clear cut choice to face your champion at WrestleFest even IF Candy’s lesser half somehow lucks his way into a cheap win tonight...Killjoy beat her when she was rested and not coming off of two losses and a trip back from South Africa…
Lisa Goldrush: Wait just one se…
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: Killjoy Ito is the ONLY choice the FSW has…
A low chuckle hangs in the air before a familiar face resurfaces from the shadows. With a Bud Light tall boy in his right hand Smokey Jones walks into view.
Smokey Jones: Killjoy who is the only option the FSW has you say?
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: That's the greatest talent from the Prime Roster known as 'The Future Ace' Killjoy Ito.
Smokey Jones: Oh yeah I remember him now, you're talking about that client of yours that I demolished in the middle of the ring when he came to my show looking for competition.
Smokey takes a sip from his tall boy before placing the can in the open hand of Tommy Love.
Smokey Jones: Hold that for a second.
Smokey throws his left arm across the shoulders of Tommy Love and pulls him in close.
Smokey Jones: Now listen up, just in case you didn't know this already, let me make it perfectly clear for you. That victory you're client has over Megan Treamon doesn't mean a damn thing when it comes to Megan Treamon and the FSW Championship.
Tommy Love steps back removing Smokey's arm from around his shoulders and creating space between himself and Smokey Jones in the process. He quickly regains his composure and brushes his shirt off before pushing his glasses back into place before responding.
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: and just why the hell not?
Smokey Jones: Well, the answer to that is because Megan Treamon, the FSW Championship and myself have some dire unfinished business we need to settle and three's already a crowd. So with that being said, my personal advice is for you two to enjoy the rest of your vacation and take your asses back to Prime before you have a problem on your hands.
Tommy Love gets all flustered and shouts out to Smokey.
‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love: Take your damn beer can back i'm not the janitor here.
Smokey pulls a six pack off the nearest table and holds it up for Tommy Love to see.
Smokey Jones: Naw, you can keep it I have a fresh six pack right here.
Smokey walks off screen leaving Tommy and Lisa to themselves. Cut back to ringside.
Jackson: Well, I don't know what is going on with that situation, but we are back at ringside with the FSW Champion!
Hunter: She's already in the ring and she looks determined to take down Robbie Rayder.
Calloway: Who HASN'T taken down Robbie Rayder?
ROBBIE RAYDER
VS ROBINA HOOD
DING DING DING
This match promised to be an instant classic. The FSW Champion took her time locking up with Rayder, as if she were playing mind games with him. Finally, the two locked up in the middle of the ring. It was the stronger Rayder who gained the advantage with a hip toss that sent the champ flying. When she arrived to her feet, she was knocked right back down with a clothesline from Robbie. Robbie Irish-whipped her into the corner. Upon charging at her, she moved out of the way and Rayder hit chest first. Robina spun Robbie around and then moved away from the corner, running and delivering a hard dropkick sending him to his rear. For the second time this week, Robina Hood delivered a stinkface to her opponent. She got Robbie up out of the corner to set him up for the Grand Finale, but Robbie was able to slip out of it.
Moments later, Robbie was able to hit Robina with a belly-to-back suplex, leaving the champ dazed. Robbie nailed Robina with the Shock & Awe, sending her to the mat. Rayder proceeded to climb up to the top turnbuckle and leap off, nailing Robina with Aire Rayde V.1 for the upset victory!
DING DING DING
Gordon: Your winner….Rooooobbiiiiie Raaaaaydeeer!Hunter: What a victory for Robbie Rayder!
Jackson: He defeats the FSW Champion in the season finale! You better believe he is setting himself up for a shot at that Championship belt!
Hunter: When we come back from the commercial break, we've got our Main Event for the evening!
ELIMINATION MATCH
WINNER FACES STITCHES AT WRESTLEFEST FOR THE TELEVISION CHAMPIONSHIP
SARAH ROBERTS
VS MELODY MALONE
VS FAITH RIVERS
VS MAURICE YENSMAN
VS XAVIER REID
VS MERCENARY
Gordon: The following is our main event of the evening!
Jackson: Welcome back FSW faithful, and as you just heard from Stan Gordon, we are all set for our main event. Six FSW superstars will step foot into the ring in order to determine the number one contender for the Television Championship.
Calloway: Five. Look.
We cut to the outside of the Cow Palace where we see Maurice Yensman with a bunch of firefighters surrounding him. Maurice's arm is stuck in the sewage drain. Lisa Goldrush is standing by.
Goldrush: Maurice. What is going on here?
Yensman: Well, lady. My goddamn arm got stuck in the sewer. What in the hell else does it look like?
Goldrush: But... why?
Yensman: Look. A pack of smokes is $7 and change out here! When you drop it into the sewer you don't NOT go after it. That Television belt thingamajig will be there later. This pack of smokes has precisely two more hours of survival before it's no longer smokable. Now. Do you mind?!
Goldrush: Ooookay. Back to you guys.
We cut back to the ring.
Hunter: That's fine. That guy weirds me out anyway. Probably better off to not have him out here.
DING DING DING
The Mercenary barely got out of the gate in this one. It's like he was not even a fragment of what he has shown here on Uprising. Being the biggest competitor in the match, the entire group of four other superstars (minus Maurice Yensman, of course) ganged up on the Mercenary for a few minutes to wear the big man down. It wasn't until Faith Rivers hit Faithful on him and covered him to eliminate him from the match.Gordon: The Mercenary has been eliminated!
With four competitors remaining, this one went back and forth for awhile. Sarah Roberts and Faith Rivers squared off in one corner while Xavier Reid duked it out with Melody Malone. Melody, who has been on a hot streak as of late, reversed an Irish-whip attempt from Reid and sent the lone male crashing into Faith Rivers in the opposite corner. Sarah Roberts ran at Melody and leveled her with a running uppercut, knocking Melody out of the ring.
Faith Rivers took the brunt of the blow from Xavier crashing into her. But she was able to fight back. She nailed Xavier with a dropkick. However, upon returning to her feet, Xavier nailed her with an X-Ecution. Reid then locked in the X'ed Out on Rivers, who struggled valiantly but had no choice but to tap out.
Gordon: Faith Rivers has been eliminated!
With Melody still outside of the ring, Sarah went straight to work on Xavier Reid. She dropped an elbow on his sternum before he could even release the X'ed Out on Faith Rivers. Sarah pulled Reid to his feet and went for the Lights Out, but Reid dodged the attempt and hit her with a knee to the side of the head. Sarah reeled backwards but was able to dodge a roundhouse kick from the former FSW Champion. As Xavier spun back around, Melody Malone tripped him up from outside the ring, causing him to fall flat on his face.
Melody slid back into the ring and her and Sarah went to work on Reid, double-teaming him. They set him up onto the top turnbuckle and delivers a double-suplex to him right in the middle of the ring. Reid attempted to fight back with some kicks to the ladies' legs, but the Deerfield Destroyer managed to hit him with the Lights Out and Malone followed it up with Nightmare Fuel to put the former champ away.
Gordon: Xavier Reid has been eliminated!
The two ladies squared off in the ring. They stood a few feet apart, sizing each other up. Malone has been hot as of late, but Roberts is always dangerous. They locked up in the middle of the ring. Roberts put Malone in a hammerlock, but Malone quickly reversed it into an attempt at Requiem. Roberts was able to escape the move, however, and Malone landed on her feet. Roberts turned around and delivered a swift kick to the temple of Melody Malone. While down on the ground, Roberts locked in the Highlight of the Night!
Malone clawed her way towards the ropes, just barely being able to reach out and cause the hold to be broken. Roberts dragged Malone back to the middle of the ring and looked to lock it in again, but Malone was able to shift her weight and lean back into Roberts, whose shoulders hit the ground. After a long two and a half count, Roberts kicked out.
The two got back to their feet and Malone went to kick Roberts in the stomach. Roberts caught her foot, leading to en enziguri from Malone. Malone, trying to seize the opportunity, went up to the top rope to go for the leg drop. She leapt and Roberts moved out of the way, causing Malone to crash onto her rear hard.
Roberts got up to her feet and pulled Malone up to hers, as well. Roberts was able to nail Malone with the Lights Out and cover her opponent for the three count and earn the opportunity for the Television Championship!
