Then a cut to another, equally explosive show on the inside!

On the MacTron, this episode of FSW begins with its opening video montage detailing many of the historic events that have taken place in the five-year history of Future Stars of Wrestling. From past champions like Jason Hunter, Dixie Dubois, Amis Shelton, Magdalena Lockheart, and Otaki all standing underneath an old FSW logo to the more current Future Stars Champions like Xavier Reid, Cletus Franklin, Robina Hood, Robbie Rayder, and Stitches tearing down that mold...
As more pyro goes off the the FSW logo appears and flashes of the roster appear on the screen such as Killjoy Ito, Mercenary, Jason Rayne, Wes Walker and finally Sebastian Conner. Then, the camera cuts to a shot from FSW 100 of Ezio DeLuca winning the North American championship before fading into a shot of Candy standing tall over Stitches after Carnival Carnage, the FSW title in the air...
The camera pans around the loud and out of control audience. As the fireworks continue to explode, the fans chant and cheer! The atmosphere inside the Cow Palace seemed to be charged with that ten million volts of electricity as described in the song. Cameras pan around the arena to catch some of the signage that many fans have brought to the Cow Palace with them here tonight. The FSW fan-base is as adamant about having their voices heard now as ever:
"THE BEST BRAND IN EWC: FRIDAY NIGHT RAMPAGE"
"ORANGE IS THE NEW BLUE"
"EZIO: CALL ME CUTIE!"
"I WANT CANDY"
"I CAME TO SEE THE LOVE CLUB!"
"F-S-DUB!!!"
"F-S-DUB!!!"
"F-S-DUB!!!"
"F-S-DUB!!!"
"F-S-DUB!!!"
"F-S-DUB!!!"
"F-S-DUB!!!"
The lights come back to full and the fans offer one last rousing cheer at the opening festivities. Tonight's announcers are on standby and ready for the show to begin.
Watson: WE ARE BACK IN BEAUTIFUL DALY CITY, CALIFORNIA! Welcome to FSW number One Hundred and One! We are starting off the second centennial of FSW with a band tonight folks! I am Tim Watson, and with me as always is Cid Sydney.
Sydney: It's great to be back with another episode of FSW! A bit of news before we get started, I am being told by our production truck that after the events of the altercation between David Gospel and Marcu$ $t. John on Gambit earlier this evening, Chris Brock is booking them one on one for FSW 102! That should be a banger of a match Tim!
Watson: Indeed, We have one hell of a card for you tonight, starting with -
Watson pauses and places his ear to his headset for a moment
Watson: Wait a second Cid, I’m being told there is some kind of commotion going on in the back. Can we get a camera back there?
A camera person pushes back through the curtain into the gorilla position where Mercenary is having a shouting match with one of the producers.
Producer: You’re not scheduled for a segment right now. We’re opening the show.
Mercenary: Son, I’m only gonna tell ya once. You best hand me that microphone and get the hell out of my way cause I’m either gonna go past you or through you, but either way I’m going out to that damn ring.
The producer hands him the microphone and Mercenary stalks past him and storms down the ramp with no entrance music, climbing angrily into the ring.
Sydney: It seems like Mercenary has something important to say and he is in no mood to wait.
Watson: He bullied his way into this segment. He’s not supposed to be out here right now.
Sydney: You go tell him that Tim. Go ahead. Tell him.
Mercenary waits for the crowd to quiet down before he starts to growl into the stolen microphone.
Mercenary: WES WALKER! Congratulations golden boy. You BEAT ME AGAIN! Yeah. Yeah. You sure did.
He chuckles to himself, but has to bite his lower lip to keep himself under control.
Mercenary: You know one of the really funny things about this business is that friends are hard to find. Everybody has their own agenda in that ring and it’s hard to tell who can be trusted and who is just setting you up to fail. For instance Wes, after you stole that opportunity from me, how many people in the back came up to congratulate you? How many people were right there to tell you just how good you did and to tell you that you deserve it? And how many of those people were lying right to your face? Most of those other wrestlers in the back would rather spit in your eye than let you see another title shot. Most of them are just hoping that you blow this chance and embarrass yourself enough that you might just burn out and fade away. When everyone around you wants your spot who can you really trust to tell you the truth?
You can trust ME of course! Because I LOVE the truth. The truth hurts. The truth is mean. The truth can break your will even as it sets you free and the truth is that you don’t deserve to get another opportunity. Let’s face true facts here Wes. Let’s let these people and everyone at home know. YOU didn’t win that damn match, not really. The only thing you did was wait in the weeds for the better man to let his guard down and the SECOND my back was turned you came from behind and took advantage of my blind side. I mean what did you DO to win this match? Who did you eliminate? Who did you really beat? Kendrick Kross? I’m the one who took him out of that match. Anybody who watched the show knows that Kross was already half dead after I brained his ass with a beer-bottle board and left him a bloody mess and easy pickings. You didn’t even choke him out, he was already blacking out from loss of blood when you got hold of him. ANYBODY in that ring could have eliminated him at that moment, you were just the closest carrion to the corpse.
I eliminated more people at Parabellum than ANYONE else, and that includes Captain Killjoy in the main event. MAYBE if Team FSW had included more than just a laundry list of three former failed champions and one rusty legend the Orange brand might be celebrating a win this week instead of making excuses for why we lost to a team that was being led by a guy who blew us off for greener pastures and a woman who made her bones right here in a Daly City ring before she realized that she might make more money if she took her two best talents and her one best asset on up to the main roster where the swingin’ dicks in charge could get a better look at the goods.
But let’s go back and take a look at my hit list. On that night I took out: Justin Paird, Allen Anderson, The legend Carlos Ruiz, and the star pupil himself, DIO. And let me see… who am I forgetting? Oh yeah, I also ELIMINATED WES WALKER! Play it.
The Mactron comes to life with a scene from Parabellum:
Mercenary turns and punches Wes who shakes it off and grabs Mercenary in a collar and elbow tie up, Dio jumps high and hits a double standing dropkick that floors both men. While Dio rolls to his feet he finds the prosthetic leg and picks it up. He holds it up to the crowd and smiles, he turns around and receives a huge boot to the face from Mercenary, sending him flying through the middle ropes and the prosthetic leg flying into the third row! Wes grabs Mercenary’s shoulder and spins him around but he receives a boot for his troubles! 1...2..3!
No! The referee says Wes got his shoulder up just in time!
No! The referee says Wes got his shoulder up just in time!
The camera cuts back to the ring where Mercenary is staring at the big screen with a disgusted look on his face.
Mercenary: Did you see it? Did ya? The Ref counted three. HE COUNTED THREE! I should’ve had my hand raised and left Phuket with nothing but a future title shot in front of me, but for some reason the official had other ideas. This kind of shit is starting to feel waaay too familiar.
He paces over to the opposite side of the ring, leaning on the ropes and glaring towards the announce table.
Mercenary: YOU know what I’m talkin’ about don’t ya Sydney?
Behind the Mercenary the Mactron shows a scene from FSW 98. Robbie Rayder has Mercenary trapped in The Blackout. As he wrenches in the hold Mercenary appears to tap out, but when the submission is shown from a different angle it appears as if he might have been reaching for the ropes. Over commentary Cid Sydney can be heard yelling:
Sydney: I don’t think Mercenary tapped out! He was screwed, where’s Brock!?
The camera cuts again to Mercenary’s growing disdain.
Mercenary: You see? Even Cid saw it. I was reaching for the bottom rope and my hand slipped off and hit the mat. I didn’t tap out, no matter how clear weak sauce Watson seemed to think it was. This kinda crap goes back to my very first title opportunity at The Rumble in Texas:
Gautier tries to keep Mercenary down, but he gets to a knee. Kyle tries to place a foot in the back of Mercenary but Mercenary shrugs it off and gets up to his feet. Mercenary backs Kyle up to the corner. Kyle lets go but Mercenary tries for a right hand. Kyle ducks under and lands a series of kicks. Mercenary catches the leg then shoves Kyle down to the mat with a modified uranage suplex. Kyle hits his head on the mat. Mercenary slowly climbs up to the second rope, favoring his back. He nearly slips as he sets for a second rope leg drop. Kyle quickly gets to his feet, grabs the neck of Mercenary and falls backwards, driving his knee into the chest of Mercenary with the Port City Drop. The crowd pops as Kyle gets the three count, just as Mercenary kicks out a second later.
Dobrev: And your winner, via Pinfall… and STILL North American Champion KYLE GAUTIER!
Aiello: One little slip by the challenger and Gautier found that opening he was needing.
Sydney: Wasn’t perfect or pretty but quick thinking and a little luck and the Champ takes home the title once again.
Amsler: I think Kyle knows he got away with this one. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Mercenary with the North American Title next time they meet.
Dobrev: And your winner, via Pinfall… and STILL North American Champion KYLE GAUTIER!
Aiello: One little slip by the challenger and Gautier found that opening he was needing.
Sydney: Wasn’t perfect or pretty but quick thinking and a little luck and the Champ takes home the title once again.
Amsler: I think Kyle knows he got away with this one. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Mercenary with the North American Title next time they meet.
Mercenary: I think that EVERYONE watching knew that he got away with one. Watch it back a thousand times, can you really say that the kickout came a second after the three count came down or was it a second before? It’s pretty damn hard to tell if you ask me. It’s like this, time and time again I'll be winning my match and then at the last minute something weird happens that robs me of my victory. It’s almost like someone doesn’t want to see me succeed. It’s like SOMEONE just can’t stand the idea of The Mercenary walking away with a title.
You know clean cut, gold standard, types like Walker, Rayder, DeLuca and Candy… they look good when you put’em on a poster. They’re easy to sell and they take direction really well. And maybe that’s what the promoters want. After all, they finally managed to get rid of the last real wild card champion, the joker in the deck, and when Stitches dropped that gold to another pretty face I can only imagine what the powers-that-be were thinking. They finally had a champion they knew how to market. They finally had a product that they could put a public face on. So why would they ever want another wild card in their deck? Maybe The Office knows that if Merc ever did get his hands on one of those shiny gold belts that he wouldn’t be giving it up that easily. Maybe people like Chris Brock know that if I finally got what I’ve worked so hard for, that I would carry the belt MY way and maybe they don’t like so much how that would look when FSW goes global and becomes a main roster brand.
He shrugs his shoulders and makes a face.
Mercenary: At the end of the day it’s like this: If you kick a dog once, then that dog will hang its head and wonder what it did wrong. When it comes back around it will do anything to make you happy.
And when you kick that dog a second time it will show you its teeth. It’ll snarl and growl and let you know that it doesn’t like the feeling of being beat on.
But when you kick that dog for a third time, well, that’s when even the most trained pup in the pound will bite ya. It’ll latch on with an iron jaw and rip and tear until it gets a piece of you. After that last time, when you finally make it bite, you will never be able to tame that dog ever again.
This company has kicked me one too many times in the past few years and I’m damn tired of acting tame. You think you can keep me in my place? You think you can elevate people like Ezio DeLuca and Wes Walker above me while I sit and stay like a good boy? You think I’ll take my whuppin’ and I won’t bite back?
He pauses, scowling out into the crowd before pointing at a piece of merch being held aloft by a teenage fan who is clearly a glutton for punishment. As he recites the words, surprisingly, many echo the sentiment aloud:
YOU. DON’T. KNOW. SHIT!
Mercenary: I don’t give a damn who I have to go through to help you people understand. If you don’t want to push me, then you best well believe that I’ll be the one pushing you! I’ll push you down. I’ll push you over. I’ll push you the hell out of my way. I’m done playin’ by your rules. I think it’s time that you all start livin’ by mine.
So Kurioki, I caught your little candid bar show you put on there in Sapporo. It was trending on line. Some drunk jackass grabbin' on your girl's goods like a big money donor at a Trump fundraiser and even though we didn't get to see the end of the fight I think we got to see enough. Two men went in the bathroom for a fight and one guy came out with more than a little bit of blood on him and the other dude came out later on a stretcher.
Mercenary offered a one man ovation. A few in the crowd added their own applause.
Mercenary: Yeah. That's right. That dude deserved everything he got and more. I may be one big bastard but I don't hold with that kind of insufferable shit. I heard second-hand that the fella you stomped was singin' my praises and I'd like to be the first... well, I guess the second, to tell him to go F himself. I'm not lookin' for fans in the first place and I'm CERTAINLY not lookin' for the good graces of a piece of trash like that. You're one bad dude Kurioki, I'll give you that. It's just a shame that I'm gonna have to put a black mark on your perfect record. TONIGHT you're bad luck life continues down that dark and lonesome road. Because you may be a badass and you may have had a little luck on Gambit and on Prime, but THIS is FSW! THIS is your bad day. I'll see you in the ring.
Mercenary drops the microphone. It hits the mat with a loud pop.
Sydney: I think it’s safe to say that what the man just said left nothing in question. Mercenary is mad and he’s looking for someone to take it out on.
Watson: I think I can say that nothing is safe when that guy’s around Cid.
Sydney: You may have a point there Tim, you may just have a very good point.
Watson: Our first match of the night will be coming up right after this quick message from EWCTV. Don't go anywhere .. FSW action will be back in exactly 1 minute.
The camera quickly cuts backstage as we see FSW General Manager Chris Brock watching what just went down in the ring.
Brock: Now THAT is the Mercenary I've been waiting to show up for months!
He walks off as we fade to commercial

SINGLES MATCH
Xavier Fraizer
VS Stevie Von Wilde
As we return from commercial, instead of our commentary team, the following image is seen on the screen for almost 30 seconds...
Watson: Welcome back to FSW folks! We are now ready to get the show started with our first match of the evening! Xavier Frazier is set to take on newcomer Stevie Von Wilde, who was impressive in his match against Kurioki at FSW Gambit in Japan
Sydney: Von Wilde can bounce around, but Fraizer is a mat technician. If he can ground the daredevil, this match may not last very long Tim.
Watson: We shall see, Lets get down to the ring to Isabella Starr for the introducitions.
Starr: The following contest is scheduled for one fall and is our opening match of the night! Introducing first, from Ventura, California weighing in at 190 pounds... “The Chiropractor” Xavier…. FFFFFFRRRRRRRRRAIZER!
The arena becomes completely dark. Mortal Kombat by the Immortals begins to play on the PA. system as Xavier Frazier comes down to the ring. He enters the middle of the ring and raises his fist in the air.
Starr: And his opponent, Making his way to the ring, from Los Angeles California by way of Portsmouth, England. He is the Prince of the Party, the Portsmouth Punk, this is Stevie Von Wilde!
Yungbluds "Die for the Hype" begins playing and the signature combination of pink and black lights comes over the stage. As the song builds up Stevie Von Wilde wanders onto the stage. Swaggering and dancing his way across the stage he approaches the crowd on one side of the stage. As the song drops into the chorus, SVW turns his back to the crowd, throws his arms into the air and falls into the crowd. SVW crowd surfs his way towards ringside singing and dancing in the arms of the crowd. Once he gets put down he struts his way into the ring. He climbs up the corner of the ring and gives the crowd the double bullhorns as he sings along with the song.
DING DING DING
Xavier goes to lock up with SVW, but Stevie is having none of it and quickly hits a running knee that stuns Fraizer. SCW follows it up with a step up Enziguri, which has Xavier reeling, but SVW isn’t done yet and jumps at his opponent, landing a tilt a whirl head scissor takedown that throws Frazier to the other side of the ring. The fans are buzzing at the fast paces offense here as Fraizer regroups in the corner. Frazier shakes it off as he goes to re-engage SVW. Instead of going for another lock up, Xavier looks to shoot the left on the mimble Brit, but SVW shakes him off. Xavier is quick to recover though and spins around, jumping, and landing a hurricanrana that has the crowd cheering once again! SVW is quick to get back to his feet and we have a stand off now between the two!
Watson: Frazier took a page out of Stevie Von Wilde’s book there by going high risk.
Sydney: Ok… Now I really want to see the end of the match. This one should be good.
SVW runs at Frazier, but Xavier is quick to duck out of the way with a drop toe hold that sends Stevie to the mat. Fraizer is quick to follow up with an armbar submission that has SVW searching for a way out. He freaks out for a moment, before calming him self down, looking around the ring for his way out and then starting to stand. He gets to a knee before he is able to roll over, sending Frazier over in a take down that breaks the submission. SVW is quick to move away, moving his arm around trying to shake off the damage that was done to it. Frazier gets to one knee, facing away from his opponent, as SVW sees the window of opportunity and connects with a running bulldog! Stevie goes for the cover, but only gets a two count before Fraizer kicks out, sending SVW into the corner. SVW is sitting now, as Fraizer runs, jumps and lands a bronco buster on Stevie! Referee Matt Mercer begins his five count and gets to four before Frazier breaks it up and stands back for Matt Mercer to check on SVW. Happy that Stevie is OK to continue, Mercer signals for the match to continue. Xavier is quick to engage by running to the opposite corner, then barreling down at Stevie and connecting with a running senton cannonball! Stevie looks lifeless on the mat and Xavier drags him to the center of the ring, quickly covering…
ONE…
TWO…
THR-Kickout!
Xavier bangs his fist on the mat in frustration, believing that he had SVW beat. SVW gets to his feet and runs at Fraizer, just barely connecting with a lariat that does not take Xavier down, but sends him into the corner. Stevie sees this and takes the opportunity to run and hits a running drop kick. He quickly runs back across the ring and charges again, hitting another dropkick, and then another, and then one more. It’s Lit City for SVW!
Sydney: Lit City baby! Things just picked up in Daly City.
After the last dropkick, Frazier falls to the mat near the center of the ring. Stevie runs to the the corner, jumps to the top rope and positions himself and then leaps off hitting a shooting star press he calls Carpe Diem! Stevie with the cover…
ONE…
TWO…
THREE!!!
DING DING DING
Starr: The winner of this match by way of pinfall…. STEVIE...VONNNNN….. WILDE!!!!!
Watson: Well, SVW did it! He seized the day and picked up the win!
Sydney: Well that’s one way to kick off a show! Hot damn!
The moment cameras go to ringside, “I Want Candy” by Aaron Carter begins to blare throughout the Cow Palace bringing the fans to their feet for their champion. They are cheering loudly as Candy walks out in her street clothes with the FSW Championship over her shoulder.
Starr: Ladies and gentlemen, please give a sweet welcome for your reigning FSW Champion...CAAANDYYYY!
Sydney: I still have no idea how she retained in Japan.
Watson: It’s all about heart...and Candy has got plenty of it to go around!
Sydney: Yeah, yeah.
Fans get even a little louder as Candy tags their hands on her way down the aisle. Once in the ring, Candy retrieves a mic and moves to the center of the ring. She waits a few moments for things to settle before raising it to speak.
Candy: When are people going to learn never to count me out of a fight? Just because Killjoy was going home, he thought he had this one in the bag. That everything was going to go exactly like it should in front of his family and friends. But I proved different inside the Sun Dome. Now I’ll give credit where credit is due. Killjoy gave me quite the fight and I respect him for it. It just wasn’t meant to be. As I am STILL your FSW Champion!
Sydney: Killjoy will get another opportunity one day.
Watson: I think Candy already knows that. But in the meantime, she has other matters to tend to.
She lifts the title from her shoulder and holds it up in air with fans cheering their approval. After returning it to her shoulder, Candy continues on.
Candy: Though it wouldn’t surprise me if all the singles champions were hoping to see Killjoy standing here right now. This way they wouldn’t have to deal with me in the Power Struggle. As the only winner in this group, they already know I have a good shot. Even Scorpio. Not like he’ll ever admit that though.
She shrugs.
Candy: Either way, now that I earned my way into this Power Struggle, I will do whatever I can to reclaim the Undisputed Championship.
Sydney: Do you really think she can win it all again?
Watson: Anything’s possible. All I know is, none of the champions better not count her out or it could come back to bite them!
Candy: But no matter the outcome in the Coca-Cola Arena, I still have Stitches waiting for his rematch at the Rumble. He acted like I should be afraid of what lies ahead. Like I didn’t see it coming already. Truth is, this was inevitable. I was just waiting for him to make his move. So I could make mine. At Uprising, everyone saw me step into his world. So how about at the Rumble, Stitches steps into mine? How about a match through….the Candy Castle? I look forward to hearing his answer! Hopefully it’s a sweet one.
Sydney: The CANDY CASTLE?! Does that even exist?
Watson: Guess we’ll find out if Stitches accepts her challenge!
As “I Want Candy” by Aaron Carter plays out again, Candy drops the mic and heads to the back with the crowd cheering her on. As Candy approaches the entrance curtain there is an audible static sound as a video begins to play on the MacTron above her head. As the scene begins to come into focus we see the carnival clown, his face far too close to the screen staring down at Candy, as if he were aware that she was standing right underneath the MacTron.
Stitches: The Candy Castle, for years now I have chipped away at the foundations of that structure, waiting for the moment when it would finally crumble to the ground... and at WrestleFest it did because for the first time in a long time I left you lying inside that ring defeated at my hands. The mystique that was Candy had been shattered and all that remained was a defeated, broken woman. For a time you stood around the broken remains of that kingdom, wondering how you could put the pieces back together and, foolishly, I gave you the opportunity to put those pieces back together at Uprising. I became careless, I was reckless and I allowed you to slip between the cracks, quite literally in regards to those shattered mirrors, and you rode off into the sunset with my FSW Championship'.
The carnival clown pauses for a moment to lick his dry, cracked, red-painted lips, rolling his tongue along the upper lip and then the lower before it retreats back into his mouth.
Stitches: Now, you invite me inside the Candy Castle walls, those same walls I have climbed over and crawled under in order to bring them crashing to the ground. You invite me to the Candy Castle with the intention of having the upper hand over our encounter at the Rumble. This is your realm, this is your advantage, but unlike Carnival Carnage, I know everything about the Candy Castle, you knew nothing about Carnival Carnage. And if you were able to walk out of Carnival Carnage with the FSW Championship thrown over your shoulder, just imagine what I am capable within those castle walls within an environment that, besides yourself, I know better than any other. So, as far as your challenge is concerned, I accept. Because just like last year, a Rayder may have walked out of Uprising with the carnival clown's championship, but the carnival clown has the last laugh in the end when he takes back what is rightfully his at the very first opportunity'.
A conniving smirk crosses the face of the carnival clown.
Stitches: Be sure to tidy the place up before I arrive. No one likes a terrible host'.
The loud, cacophonous sound of static is heard once again as the video starts to cut away before abruptly the MacTron turns to black and then back to the normal graphics and animation. Candy stands still for a moment before shaking her head with a devil-may-care attitude and disappearing behind the entrance curtains.
Watson: Well, you heard it here first, folks. First, Candy laid out the challenge for a match within the confines of the Candy Castle and then Stitches was quick to accept.
Sydney: The time is ticking on Candy's championship reign. Soon, Stitches will reclaim championship gold within Candy's domain; the Candy Castle.
Watson: I wouldn't be so sure of that, Sydney.
Sydney: You heard the man; the Rayder's win at Uprising but, eventually, the carnival clown has the last laugh.
Watson: We will find out at the Rumble. For now though, there is still plenty more show to go. We'll be right back
The camera cuts backstage to Lisa Goldrush who is standing by with a special guest.
Goldrush: Please welcome at this time, the EWC Tag Team Champions The Southern Express and Bunny Love!
The camera pulls back to show Bobby Rose, Jimmy Lane and Bunny Love standing next to Lisa Goldrush
Goldrush: Tonight…
But Bunny reaches out and takes the microphone away from Lisa.
Love: That will do Lisa, now run along...you are no longer needed…
Bobby and Jimmy smile as Bunny looks into the camera
Love: Tonight here inside The Cow Palace history will be made as for the first time in pro wrestling history the EWC Tag Team Champions will face the WWH Tag Team Champions when The Dynamic Duo of Jocelyn Sky and Serenity Scorpio face these two men…
Bunny looks over at Bobby and then Jimmy
Love: The Southern Express and tonight this is MUCH MORE than just another match, this is our chance to knock off another promotions Tag Team Champions, a chance for us to show that The Southern Express isn’t just the best tag team in the EWC but also the best tag team in WWH...because when we beat their tag team champions we dismiss their chances moving forward to saying ‘our tag team champions are the best in the business’ right, how can they be the best in the business when they are losing to the EWC’s Tag Team Champions?
Bunny smiles
Love: Furthermore, how can Jocelyn and Serenity be the best tag team in this business when they can’t even find footing here in the EWC because let’s face it The Dynamic Duo has been anything but ‘Dynamic’ since Stephanie Matsuda was able to sweet talk the EWC into bringing them here...they were a NON-FACTOR in the Brawl #555 Tag Team Championship Tournament, yes they faced the team that went on to win the entire tournament in the first round but let’s face it...them being named the 7th seed was a complete joke...the now fired Porter Company had a better resume here in the EWC...as did The Journeymen...they were gifted that spot, Ace and Dominic should have been the higher seed an showed why…
Bunny shakes her head
Love: You blinked and they were gone, at FSW’s Uprising they fell flat on their face in six man tag team action against another one of the EWC’s tag teams in Lunch Time...they looked so damn bad that Chris Brock cancelled their match at FSW #096 against Chris Maverick and Ben Superior out of fear the viewers would turn off the TV…
From off screen Lisa Goldrush yells out
Goldrush: That’s not true…
Bunny looks off camera
Love: SHUT IT LISA, I have it under good authority that’s exactly what happened...but lucky for them they are facing the EWC Tag Team Champions here tonight at FSW #101 so their match will make air tonight...but unfortunately for them the world will be watching as they get boat raced by the tag team champions…
Bobby smiles and leans in
Rose: Tonight we make our first appearance in a EWC ring as the reigning EWC Tag Team Champions and looking to send a message to the rest of the tag teams in the EWC that The Southern Express are fighting champions...they our singles aspirations aren’t going to have us abandon the tag team division for weeks and months on end…
Lane: That’s right Bobby, tonight we are giving The Dynamic Duo the opportunity to walk out to that ring and see how they measure up against the EWC Tag Team Champions...to settle the debate which tag team champions are the BEST…
Love: Tonight is our first opportunity to set the bar as the EWC Tag Team Champions and show Jocelyn and Serenity what it means to be the TRUE Tag Team Champions of the World!!!
Bunny tosses the microphone back to Lisa as the trio walk off camera
TAG TEAM SHOWCASE
The Dynamic Duo
VS The Southern Express
Watson: Up next, a special attraction, ladies and gents, as the EWC Tag Team Champions, The Southern Express, fresh of their big tag title win at Parabellum, go head-to-head with the Dynamic Duo, the team of Jocelyn Sky and Serenity Scorpio!
Sydney:It’s non-title, you forgot to mention that, Tim...
Watson: I was getting there...
Sydney: Sure you were. Not sure how a match can be anything “special” if there’s absolutely zero at stake, but whatever pays the bills, that’s what we’re overse... er I mean, selling around here. Right, Tim?
Watson: Cid, gold on the line or not, these are two of the very best tag team specialists on the planet and they’re being showcased HERE! At FSW 101! There’s bragging rights, pride and contendership on the line! We’re not overselling anything.
Sydney: Dear lord, Watson, are you a schill...
Starr: The following tag team contest is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, at a total combined weight of 241 lbs... Jocelyn Sky! Serenity Scorpio! The Dynamic Duo!!!
Multi-colored flashing lights hit as "How It's Done" by Kash Doll begins to play as Serenity and Jocelyn run out to the stage, raising their fists to the adoring crowd. After a creative handshake exchange, they hurry down the ramp, giving high-fives to the front row audience. They hop onto the apron and pose for the crowd before jumping over the ropes and preparing for their match.
Starr: And their opponents, accompanied to the ring by their manager, Bunny Love...
The electric guitar kicks in to 'Stranglehold' as the crowd gets to their feet, some of the older females in the crowd start to scream like they did when they were younger as Bunny Love walks out onto the stage and is quickly followed by Bobby Rose and Jimmy Lane
Starr:From Nashville, Tennessee, at a total combined weight of 445 pounds, they are the EWC Tag Team Champions...Bobby Rose! Jimmy Lane! THE SOUTHERN EXPRESS!!!
Bunny leads the way as the pair reach out and high five with the fans as the walk to the ring, Bunny marches up the steps and steps through the ropes as Bobby and Jimmy climb up onto the apron and step through the ropes and head to opposite corners, climbing up to the middle turnbuckle to toss out bandannas to the crowd as Bunny stands in the middle of the ring pointing to both Bobby and Jimmy
DING! DING! DING!
Bobby Rose and Joceyln Sky start things off with a little circling followed by a traditional collar and elbow tie up. Sky gets the standing switch as Rose sprawls. Rose gets wrist control, ducks under and secures a hammerlock. A few seconds later, Sky’s gives Rose the slip and secures a hammerlock of her own. Feeling Rose trying to counter, Sky grabs a headlock. Rose grabs behind the hip and pushes Rose to the ropes, hits and... WHAM! SHOULDER BLOCK! Sky is put flat on her back. Sky nips up, but as she does Rose turns and hits the ropes himself. Off the ropes goes Rose, Sky with the leapfrog, Rose off the other side, goes for the clothesline but misses. Rose turns and… WHAM! DROP KICK BY SKY! Rose is quick to his feet, turns and… WHAM! He eats another Sky dropkick! Rose rolls out of the ring to recover. Jimmy Lane meets him on the floor to regroup.
Watson: The vivacious Joceyln Sky, very tactical thus far, fairing pretty well against one half of the tag champs, Bobby Rose. She’s looking spry in there and seemingly one step ahead of the veteran.
Sydney: Someone ought to give Rose a Boniva or a Humira or something. Dude is lookin’ old... he needs his meds!
After a little R&R on the floor with his partner, Rose rolls back in and quickly reengages Sky. They tie up, this time Rose pushes Sky into the far corner, the Express corner. Rose makes the tag, Rose and Lane each grab an arm and whip Sky to the far corner where she hits the turnbuckles hard… DOUBLE ARM HIP TOSS BY THE EXPRESS! The two take turns dropping legs across the chest of Sky before the ref forces Rose back to the apron. Lane picks up Sky and nails a few elbow strikes before hitting her with a bodyslam. Lane marches and makes a tag, readying for more tandem offense. Rose stays on the apron, Lane back over to Sky. Head between the thighs, lifts her up, Sky on Lane’s shoulders, charging the corner... SMASH HIT! Rose climbs to the top and follows the Smash Hit with a big splash! The cover...
1...2... TWOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! Sky kicks out, but Serenity Scorpio was there just in case. Matt Mercer hustles Scorpio back to her corner.
Watson: The tide has turned for sure, as the EWC champs, The Southern Express, are firmly in the driver seats.
Sydney: As opposed to wheelchairs… Old farts.
Watson: Meanwhile, Serenity Scorpio is beside herself. She has yet to see the inside of the ring in this one. The Express have pretty much isolated Sky since they took control.
Rose picks Sky to her feet and hits a snap suplex. Rose with another tag. Sky seated on the ground, Lane with one arm, Rose with the other... IN YOUR FACE! Lane with the cover...
1... 2… TWO!!!!! Another near fall.
Lane to his feet, pulls Sky to her’s. He whips her, Sky off the ropes, Rose looks for a back body drop but Sky leap frogs. Rose for the clothesline, but he misses again. Sky off the other side… CRUCIFIX WITH A PIN!
1… 2… NO! Lane quick to his feet, turns… WHAM!
Watson: Jocelyn Sky with a clutch Pele kick! Both competitors are down!
Sky and Rose are desperately crawling for the tag...
Sydney: Old man Lane’s got this… er maybe not? Who’s it going to be?
Watson: It’s... JOCELYN SKY! SKY GETS THE TAG! Here comes Serenity Scorpio! FINALLY!
Sydney: SERENITY NOW! SERENITY NOW!
Lane makes his tag thereafter, but Scorpio comes in with guns blazing… WHAM! CRESCENT KICK TO ROSE! Charges the other way toward Lane… HEAD SCISSORS! Lane’s on the outs as Scorpio turns and nails Rose with two hard right hands. Irish whip by Scorpio, but it’s reversed! Rose charges… LEAP FROG! Waist, lifts… ELECTRIC CHAIR DROP BY SCORPIO! Rose teeters around holding his tailbone, Sky and Scorpio together now… LOW/HIGH ROAD! Rather than go for the pin, both women head to the apron seemingly for the Dynamic Finish.
Watson: TCould be time for the Dynamic Finish, folks! What turn of events here...
As Sky heads to the top, Lane reappears on the apron and disrupts the flow of the finish. Scorpio looks to dispose of Lane with a superkick from the apron... MISSES! Lane somehow manages to catch it! He pulls Scorpio to the floor! Sky’s distracted. She hops down from the top to tend to her partner, but she does so inside the ring. From behind, Rose with a rollup...
1...2...3!
DING! DING! DING!
Starr: And your winners, via pinfall… BOBBY ROSE! JIMMY LANE! THE SOUTHERN EXPRESS!
Watson: Man, a close one for the EWC tag champs tonight… Bobby & Jimmy juuuust able to fend off the late rally by the Dynamic Duo.
Sydney: Yeah, good for them. Now they can celebrate with a couple blankets and some Chamomile tea...
Watson: And with that, I think it's time for another brea-
“War Machine” begins blaring throughout the Cow Palace.
Watson: Well I guess we are NOT going to commercial...
Sydney: YES!
Watson: What in the world is this all about?
Sydney: THE FRANCHISE IS HERE!
Dominic Sanders and Cora Whittaker step out from the back. Dominic is in his grey suit, while Cora has on a shiny black dress.
The two make their way down to the ring as the crowd boos them loudly. Sanders helps Cora up the steps and into the ring as he climbs through the ropes after her. They soak in the boos as Sanders smirks and walks over to the ropes. He grabs a microphone from Isabella Starr as “War Machine” slowly fades out.
Sanders: You people need to shut your damn mouths for a second so I can speak.
The crowd boos louder. A chant begins to echo throughout the Cow Palace.
Sanders: Ah, no. That would be Gabi Vee…
Sanders smirks.
Sanders: So, for those of you who didn’t pay any attention, you might have missed something that I did last night outside of the Cow Palace. Let’s take a look.
Sanders turns his focus on the MacTron inside of the building. Video shows him with a can of navy blue spray paint spraying a straight, horizontal line across the eyes of the Otaki statue. As the video ends, Sanders is in the ring smiling.
Sanders: Oh, Dominic. Why the fuck did you do that?
Sanders mockingly quirks a brow while he asks the crowd.
Sanders: Because I have revenge on my mind. You see, at Parabellum I was supposed to win that match! It was only right. I’d survived at StableWars in 2018 and I was destined to survive that night on Phuket Island. But that purple-haired broad, Otaki… she ruined my moment. She took what was mine and now it’s my turn to extract some revenge.
Watson: What on earth is he talking about?
Sydney: Revenge, Watson!
Sanders: So, I am not here to call Otaki out. I don’t need her dumbass to come out here. The deal has already been done. I get shit done. I went to all the GMs and I told them that this is what I wanted, and that damned purple haired brit was dumb enough to sign on the dotted line... SO… at Night of Champions, for the FIRST TIME EVER… you will see Dominic Sanders versus Otaki!
The crowd erupts in cheers.
Watson: WHAT?!
Sydney: I can’t believe it, mate! That’s incredible!
Sanders: Otaki, you’re going to regret the day that you ever took anything from me. You can bet on that!
Sanders drops the microphone as “War Machine” begins to play. He and Cora begin to exit the ring as we move back to the announce table.
Watson: Well I guess we are NOT going to commercial...
Sydney: YES!
Watson: What in the world is this all about?

SINGLES MATCH
Mercenary
VS Kuroiki
As we come back from commercial, the following image is on the screen for about 10 seconds before we see Watson and Sydney
"2020 Brand WarFare Champions"
Watson: Welcome back, folks, to episode 101 of FSW! The third match of the night which - arguably - could very well steal the show is about to begin.
Sydney: Kuroiki has definitely been impressive. No doubts about that. But he's soon going to brawl against a no doubt pissed off Mercenary, who suffered a devastating loss in the Championship Scramble at ParaBellum. By our own Wes Walker, no less.
Watson: The fact it was down to him and Wes certainly didn't help. That's probably true. Still, Kuroiki has proven to have an almost unnatural ability with fighting. That plus his adaptability may help him get the W. No matter the outcome, though, I definitely can't wait to see how this plays out.
Sydney: Nor can I. So we'll go to the lovely Ms. Starr to get this fight going!
Starr: The following match is scheduled for one fall! Making his way to the ring, standing at 6 foot tall and weighing 230 pounds. He is The Black Tree Of Sapporo, KUROIKI!
"Immortals" by Two Steps From Hell sounds off over the loud speakers. Kuroiki emerges from gorilla. He walks directly to the ring, ignoring everyone. He rolls into the ring, slides to his corner and remains seated, awaiting the bell.
Starr: And his opponent, from from West Oakland, California, weighing in at 365 pounds... THE MERCENARY!
Mercenary walks into the flashing red light. His face is hidden behind a hard plastic tactical mask decorated with The Punisher's skull logo. He is stiff... hard... Frankenstein's deadly creation come to life. He crosses both arms, gloved fists clenched, across his chest under his chin. The pose resembles a skull and crossbones. To either side of him the stage explodes in motes of smoke and flame. Removing the mask he stalks towards the ring at a steady pace filled with menace and a deadly purpose. Stepping between the ropes he walks to the corner and throws a few shadow punch combos at the turnbuckle before turning with his back to the corner, his arms crossed across his chest to glower in his opponent's direction and wait for the bell to give him the sign to come out swinging.
DING DING DING
Kuroiki wastes little time, seeming to know exactly what he wanted to do for this match. He charges forward and 'greets' Mercenary with a massive headbutt! The EWC Outlaw staggers back slightly from the force, allowing The Black Tree to follow up with a forearm smash aimed for Mercenary's temple.
Mercenary narrows his eyes, looking less than pleased on how this fight is starting out for him. He's not quite busted open; something The Street Dog is able to quickly confirm by brushing his hand along his head. But it's definitely in its own world of pain, also evidenced by Merc not immediately making a move.
Kuroiki attempts to give The EWC Outlaw a few more seconds, but refuses to make it simple for him. Before he can deliver a second headbutt, Mercenary counters! He slams a boot straight into the Black Tree's jaw, and then swiftly follows up with an Alabama Slam, placing Kuroiki atop the canvas!
Mercenary even attempts to cover and end the match, but doesn't the referee get past one before Kuroiki shoves his opponent off.
The crowd cheers, seeming relieved the fight isn't yet done.
Watson: If I didn't know better, they want more. Unfortunately for Merc, I do too.
Sydney: If he lets his temper continue getting the best of him, that by aid in Mercenary losing this match. He needs to calm down long enough to turn the tables around in his favor.
By now, Kuroiki has gotten back up to his feet. He briefly rubs his jaw before shoving the pain away. The Black Tree of Sapporo then proceeds to take Mercenary back down with a Flapjack! He leans down to make Mercenary stand up, but the Outlaw isn't having any of that!
Instead, Mercenary sneaks behind Kuroiki, yanks his right arm tightly behind his back, and lifts him up, taking his turn to slam The Black Tree down yet again. This time, he uses a Hammerlock DDT!
But ... he doesn't let go of the hold! He keeps it very tightly locked in! Kuroiki is wincing in pain.
The referee leans down, asking if Kuroiki wants to submit. The Black Tree swiftly shakes his head, refusing to tap! Kuroiki first attempts to simply power out, but every effort is met with Mercenary strengthening his own grip.
Kuroiki nods, as if silently telling himself that was something he should have expected. So he goes through with something that wasn't as easy to predict.
Mustering every ounce of strength he can, he rolls, forcing Mercenary onto his back! He then slams an elbow against the side of Merc's head! Thankfully, it was the opposite side Kuroiki had started beating on.
Unfortunately, the surprise move is more than enough to make The EWC Outlaw let go of the makeshift hold. The crowd pops as both men get back up to their feet, slowly circling one another.
Watson: Brilliant thinking from Kuroiki!
Sydney: Don't count Merc out just yet. He kept Kuroiki's arm trapped for quite a while, after all. Hell, he's got a hundred or so pounds over The Black Tree. Those strikes are probably doing a lot of damage despite Kuroiki acting and looking mostly fine.
This time, Mercenary tries charging forward, hoping to get an attack delivered. Kuroiki counters with a kick to his midsection ... but it doesn't knock The EWC Outlaw down! Stumble a few steps back at worst, but he stands his ground.
Kuroiki nods, impressed at the display. He saunters forward, going for a Headlock, but Mercenary is more prepared this time! Merc hoists Kuroiki up into The Doom Shadow (Elevated Running Release-Crucifix Powerbomb), throwing him hard against the nearest set of turnbuckles!
Kuroiki arches his back, agony surging through every nerve in his body.
Mercenary looks to take advantage and hooks both of The Black Tree's legs!
ONE!
TWO!!
TH --- NO!!!
A combination of stubbornness and sheer will power helps Kuroiki from eating his first L tonight; at least for now. Suffice to say, Mercenary looks less than pleased at having been so close to securing a win.
While Merc tries to figure out what to follow up with, Kuroiki knows exactly what he wants. He uses every ounce of strength to hoist The EWC Outlaw up into Peaceful Passing (Delayed Suplex Into Powerbomb)! Merc tries his damnedest to power out, but Kuroiki keeps him firmly held, ensuring his finisher can be completely executed!
The Black Tree then goes for the cover!
ONE!
TWO!!
THR - NOOO!!
Kuroiki looks genuinely shocked as Mercenary kicks out. That moment of awe is all Merc needs to capitalize. He's a bit shaky in his movements, but he forces himself to follow through with his next actions, even if they're on an auto-pilot type of mode.
His arms wrap tightly around Kuroiki's waist as he starts using The Gravedigger Drop! Kuroiki struggles during every step of the manuever, but just like with the Hammerlock, he keeps The Black Tree firmly held.
Merc finally slams Kuroiki down via the Sit-Down Powerbomb portion of his move and goes for the pin!
ONE!
TWO!!
THREE!!!
DING DING DING
Starr: And your winner, via pinfall... MERCENARY!
Mercenary smugly grins as his hand is raised by the referee.
Kuroiki very cautiously and slowly manages to get back up to his feet. He waits for Mercenary to turn back to him, then offers the Outlaw a handshake. Merc narrows his eyes, unsure of what to think about the gesture. Kuroiki keeps his hand outstretched ... and finally, Mercenary accepts the gesture, causing the crowd to pop.
Whether it's simply because he won or genuinely appreciates the sportsmanship is anyone's guess. Regardless, the crowd is loving what they're seeing, and so is Kuroiki, who grins, bows his head after the shake is done, and exits the ring.
Watson: Woo, man. What a match from start to finish we just witnessed!
Sydney: For sure! I was already pumped for the main event, but this fight alone has got me even more eager to watch Jason Hunter and Killjoy Ito brawl!
Watson: Until then ... don't go anywhere too far away, EWC fans! Next up is our main event! Jason Hunter versus Killjoy Ito! You definitely won't wanna miss our last fight for the night!
Shortly after the match between Kuroiki and Mercenary has concluded the entrance curtains brush to one side and Kuroiki enters back into the gorilla position, sweat dripping from his brow after a vicious encounter. Kuroiki brushes passed the production crew and heads down a hallway nearby. Halfway down the hallway Kuroiki is stopped by Lisa Goldrush who has a microphone at the ready to ask Kuroiki a few questions.
Goldrush: Kuroiki, about your match out there tonight...
Before Lisa Goldrush can finish asking her question Kuroiki is blind-sided from behind. Kuroiki stumbles to one side as Lisa Goldrush, using impressive reflexes, backs out of the situation. Kuroiki starts to regain is composure but he is met once again by a blind-sided attack. The perpetrator of the assault is revealed; by a figure dressed all in black; a dark hooded jumper, dark pants and the most striking feature of all, the mask covering the figure's face.
Simple in design, the mask is a pallid white, stained with dirt and various smudges of paint. The eyebrows have been painted on above the hollowed and blackened eyes, the painting dripping from the eye sockets. Kuroiki stumbles into the nearby wall where the figure meets Kuroiki, laying in strike after strike before grabbing Kuroiki by the temples and slamming the back of his head into the concrete wall behind him.
Goldrush: Help! HELP! Someone HELP!
Kuroiki manages to muster up a little strength to shove the mysterious figure away a few feet, this gives him the opportunity to charge at the figure and tackle him into a pile of production equipment laying nearby. Kuroiki mounts the hooded figure and starts to driving the tip of his elbow into the figures masked face. Unbeknownst to Kuroiki, the figure reaches his arms out and manages to grab a hold of a steel pipe, the figure clenches the pipe in one hand and smashes it across the head of Kuroiki. Kuroiki crumbled into a heap. The figure gets back to his feet, steel pipe in hand, and starts driving the steel pipe hard into the side of the helpless Kuroiki, working over his ribs.
'Stop right there!'
Before the onslaught of pipe shots can really get underway a bunch of production crew members, referees and managerial figures emerge from the gorilla position, having heard the commotion nearby. The scuttling of feet encourages the hooded figure to abruptly stop their attack and disappear down the hallway before they can be apprehended. The help that had arrived tend to Kuroiki who lies unconscious in the pile of production equipment. Medical personnel attend to Kuroiki as the shows continues to move forward and we return to the action.

The camera cuts backstage and inside the locker room of Killjoy Ito, ‘The Prodigal Son’ Buddy Love looks up into the camera and smiles
Love: Jason Hunter...The ‘PRINCE’ that was promised to the wrestling world...the offspring of TWO EWC Hall of Famers...the pride and joy of Jaden and Ruthann Hunter…
Buddy pauses and then smirks
Love: Well ONCE the pride and joy because let’s face it they want as much to do with you as Gabi wants to do with my father these days...I mean heck, people told me all my life that a disappoint I was to my father but Jason you make me look like a productive member of the family…
Buddy laughs
Love: I mean the sky was the limit for you, once the FSW Champion, you were no doubt going to be the next big thing in the EWC and how could you not be...you were Xplode’s son...you were marked for greatness and maybe that’s why he wants nothing to do with you now...why he’s moved on to another ‘can’t miss prospect’ in Bosa because he came to the stark reality that his own son was a BUST!!!!
Buddy makes a awe face
Love: I know...it must hurt having both of your parents think you are a complete waste of space and knowing deep down your father wishes he would have pulled out and made you a stain on the bed sheets...but sadly for him you came into this world and up until recently walked around this world with his last name...I’m sure he was super excited when you dropped the Hunter and he can pretend you aren’t his flesh and blood because let’s face it Jason, you returning to the EWC has been an embarencement for your family and for you…
Buddy gets all serious
Love: It’s never a good look when a former champion comes back for one last run and then can’t cut it inside the ring with the new generation...your loss to Robbie Rayder should have sounded the alarms inside your head Jason that this time around you weren’t going to have the same success you had here your first go around but to be the first one eliminated at Thunder V...well Jason that should have shown you that your time inside the ring has come to an end...yes we targeted you, we went after you and were determined to eliminate you first and there wasn’t anything you could do to stop us...Killjoy and The Southern Express made short work of you...heck I last longer the first time I was with a woman than you did in that match…
Buddy shrugs
Love: Yet here you stand, right before us in tonight’s Main Event and Killjoy gets the chance to once and for all END Jason Hunter and I know people will see Killjoy as an ingrate...they will ask ‘how can Killjoy do this to a man that has done so much for him’ and I will point out he’s doing this to a man that’s made way too much off Killjoy’s back...see yes, you, Jun and Chris...you gave Killjoy a platform, a chance if you will to show what he could do but it was Killjoy that got to where he is today...he did so despite you holding him back...in your perfect world Killjoy Ito would still be back in The Club...fighting in that underground club in matches the three of you set up...you three would have robbed the wrestling world of his greatness and denied them the return of The Love’s to the wrestling business...do you realize what a travesty that would have been to all our fans...I mean I know for a fact that father’s sit down with their son’s on their laps to watch the Love Family promos…
Buddy looks into the camera and breaks the fourth wall by mouthing ‘I’m looking at you Mac’ and then winks
Love: You held Killjoy back and now and jealous of all his success...you tried everything in your power to derail that success at Thunder IV with Luna and when she failed you were willing to roll up your sleeves and try your best but the fact is Jason you can’t...you can’t stop this train and tonight Killjoy ends this once and for all, he will go out to that ring here inside the Cow Palace and end this once and for all...we will rid ourselves of Jason Hunter, Jun Yao, Chris whatever his name is and the entire Club as a whole and we will never look back while you sit there and go over in over in your heads about ‘what could have been’....Killjoy has made his choice...he’s all in LOVE and tonight this HUNTER that stands before us...he becomes our pray….
Buddy smirks at the play on words
Love: We have wasted enough time on you Jason, you have held Killjoy back, taken his mind off things that matter in this business and have for too long been an anchor around him pulling him down to your level...well that ends here tonight...we end Jason Hunter and set our sights on to bigger and better things here in the FSW and in the EWC as a whole...so enjoy for last few moments of fame because those 15 mins are just about up...you will no longer be able to ride the Killjoy and Love name after tonight….
Buddy smiles and waves goodbye as the camera fades away
Love: Jason Hunter...The ‘PRINCE’ that was promised to the wrestling world...the offspring of TWO EWC Hall of Famers...the pride and joy of Jaden and Ruthann Hunter…
Buddy pauses and then smirks
Love: Well ONCE the pride and joy because let’s face it they want as much to do with you as Gabi wants to do with my father these days...I mean heck, people told me all my life that a disappoint I was to my father but Jason you make me look like a productive member of the family…
Buddy laughs

Love: It’s never a good look when a former champion comes back for one last run and then can’t cut it inside the ring with the new generation...your loss to Robbie Rayder should have sounded the alarms inside your head Jason that this time around you weren’t going to have the same success you had here your first go around but to be the first one eliminated at Thunder V...well Jason that should have shown you that your time inside the ring has come to an end...yes we targeted you, we went after you and were determined to eliminate you first and there wasn’t anything you could do to stop us...Killjoy and The Southern Express made short work of you...heck I last longer the first time I was with a woman than you did in that match…
Buddy shrugs
Love: Yet here you stand, right before us in tonight’s Main Event and Killjoy gets the chance to once and for all END Jason Hunter and I know people will see Killjoy as an ingrate...they will ask ‘how can Killjoy do this to a man that has done so much for him’ and I will point out he’s doing this to a man that’s made way too much off Killjoy’s back...see yes, you, Jun and Chris...you gave Killjoy a platform, a chance if you will to show what he could do but it was Killjoy that got to where he is today...he did so despite you holding him back...in your perfect world Killjoy Ito would still be back in The Club...fighting in that underground club in matches the three of you set up...you three would have robbed the wrestling world of his greatness and denied them the return of The Love’s to the wrestling business...do you realize what a travesty that would have been to all our fans...I mean I know for a fact that father’s sit down with their son’s on their laps to watch the Love Family promos…
Buddy looks into the camera and breaks the fourth wall by mouthing ‘I’m looking at you Mac’ and then winks
Love: You held Killjoy back and now and jealous of all his success...you tried everything in your power to derail that success at Thunder IV with Luna and when she failed you were willing to roll up your sleeves and try your best but the fact is Jason you can’t...you can’t stop this train and tonight Killjoy ends this once and for all, he will go out to that ring here inside the Cow Palace and end this once and for all...we will rid ourselves of Jason Hunter, Jun Yao, Chris whatever his name is and the entire Club as a whole and we will never look back while you sit there and go over in over in your heads about ‘what could have been’....Killjoy has made his choice...he’s all in LOVE and tonight this HUNTER that stands before us...he becomes our pray….
Buddy smirks at the play on words
Love: We have wasted enough time on you Jason, you have held Killjoy back, taken his mind off things that matter in this business and have for too long been an anchor around him pulling him down to your level...well that ends here tonight...we end Jason Hunter and set our sights on to bigger and better things here in the FSW and in the EWC as a whole...so enjoy for last few moments of fame because those 15 mins are just about up...you will no longer be able to ride the Killjoy and Love name after tonight….
Buddy smiles and waves goodbye as the camera fades away
SINGLES MATCH
Jason Hunter
VS Killjoy Ito
Watson: Main event time, and I cannot wait.
Sydney: It could be entertaining Tim, but it could also be the shits...
Watson: LANGUAGE Cid! In any event, this match is a LONG time in the making. Killjoy, brought into the business by The Club, essentially thrown away to be managed by Tommy Love, has gone on to be more successful than many every thought he could and now the past of FSW is back to reclaim what was once his, and that road takes us right up to this match tonight. Jason Hunter versus Killjoy Ito.. One on One.. For the very first time ONLY on FSW!
Sydney: Now we got to Starr with the entrances.
Starr: The following match is scheduled for one fall, from Tokyo, Japan, weighing in at 235 pounds... KILLJOY ITO!
‘The Prodigal Son’ Buddy Love walks out onto the stage and raises his arms into the air and lowers them as the lights also fade out, he jumps up and down all excited as ‘Deeper Deeper’ begins to play. A strobe light circles around the stage as a single white spotlight hits the stage where Killjoy Ito is standing, his back facing the ring, his arms stretched out and his head down. He swings around to face the camera and the ring as Buddy Love runs up and stands by his side. Buddy motions to towards the ring and the pair begin to walk down the aisle to the mix reaction of cheers and boos from the fans. Buddy climbs up the steps first and holds the ropes open for Killjoy and then Buddy walks up to the referee and offers them a few dollars to ‘keep it fair’ but then laughs and shoves the singles back into his pocket as Killjoy walks to the center of the ring with his arms outstretched and tilts his head back and soaks it all in. Buddy helps Killjoy take off his robe and exits the ring.
Starr: And his opponent, also from Tokyo Japan, weighing in at 170 pounds... JASON HUNTER!
The arena is quiet as the lights are lower a bit as End of my Rope come blasting over the speakers. Jason coming out first just with his hood over his head and hands are tape up.
He stand on the top of the ramp as he just glares around at everyone with no type of emotion as Jun and Chris try to get him to show it a bit of something as he ignored them. They took back as he got down to one knee on the top of the ramp and slam his fist into it as he stood back up with a bit of a smirk while he start walking down to the ramp as Chris and Jun still play to the crowd a bit. He smirks as he then climbs inside of the ring looking out towards the crowd once more as he stands on the outside of the ring with Jun on his right on the floor and Chris on his left. Jun and Chris place up a fist together but Jason just stood there slowly remove his hood off his head. He climbs inside of the ring stand in the middle taking off his wrestling hood as Jun and Chris they stand on the outside as Jason is in the corner just cracking his neck as he get low glaring looking up the ramp waiting on the person not showing emotion

DING DING DING
Starr: And your winner, via pinfall... KILLJOY ITO!
Watson: Big win for Ito here in the main event.
Sydney: Jason Hunter nearly pulled it off but in the end, Ito was just plain better.
The camera follows Jason Hunter, Jun and Chris up the ramp and onto the stage, they have kept their eyes locked on Killjoy and Buddy Love who remain in the ring, their eyes have also not left the members of The Club.
Watson: Killjoy Ito and Jason Hunter have had a storied past and tonight it was a pleasure to watch this come to a close.
Sydney: These things never come to a close Tim, that resentment of not finishing it off on your terms stays with you, it eats away at you until you get the chance to right that wrong.
Watson: Well until that time comes we can marvel in the fact that we got to watch these two give it their all here tonight at FSW #101 and look forward to what’s next for both men moving…
But before Tim Watson can finish that sentence ‘Sweet but Psycho ‘ plays out inside the Cow Palace as Bunny Love walks out onto the stage.
Watson: What the hell is Bunny Love doing out here?
Sydney: Furthermore why is she doing turning her back towards Jason, Jun and Chris, after everything that went down between these groups…
But before Cid can finish Bunny slowly backs up until she’s right in front of Jason as Jun and Chris step forward and flank either side of Bunny Love, they slowly open their jackets to show their The (Love) Club t-shirts…
Watson: WHAT THE HELL
Buddy looks on in shock as his sister waves to her brother and blows him a kiss as Jun and Chris offer their arms to Bunny and escort her off the stage as Jason smiles and mouths ‘I’ll be seeing you soon’ to both Buddy and Killjoy who look on in shock.
