The opening pyros hit and here we go.

The energy in West Sussex is breathtaking as the crowd is absolutely electrifying in their uproar of cheers.

Spotlights circle around the arena as the thousands of fans in attendance are shown in a wide angle shot. The camera then pans back out showing a full-scale view of the jam-packed arena and zooms in on some crazy fans. The crowd is rowdy, chanting the company's namesake at such a loud volume that it's a wonder that the music can be heard at all.

Fireworks emit outside the building and then all around the ring while a fog machine covers the arena in a gold haze! Fans stand up, pumping their fists and raising signs as the camera feed pans to each one of them. One last round of fireworks blast out now, and we turn our attention to Mystery Man, FBI and Colin Hanks.

Mystery Man: Hello ladies and gentlemen and welcome to EWC StableWars 2018! We have one hell of an event planned tonight. Just three matches, but boy are they STACKED!

FBI: Lot of overrated losers participating tonight, apparently the EWC will let just about anyone compete on PPV nowadays.

Hanks: C’mon FBI, cheer up.. It’s StableWars!

FBI: Meh

Mystery Man: That’s alright Colin, I’m sure he’ll come around before the end of the night.. But let’s start at the top of the show, the match kicking off this historic PPV is a seven vs seven, heels vs faces, tag-team elimination match and it just might steal the show folks.

Hanks: On team face we have “The Golden Boy” Joe Doe, “The Living Highlight Reel” Kenneth Williams. Iggy Swango is in the building tonight! Then there’s the newcomer SUPERSTAR Maddox Ayres, “The King of the Streets” Jamal Jackson, the former EWC World Tag Team Champion Grizzly Duggan and from the Völsung Death Squad it's Tim Lovecraft!

Mystery Man: Quite a stacked team there Colin. And standing opposed to them is…

FBI: Standing opposed to the goody-goody shiteaters. It’s The Ever Beautiful and Very Dangerous Emma Louise, PRIME’s Jason Lawrence, Bruce Rage, Killer Instinct Scott Grayse, “The Queen” Kennedy Matthews, former EWC World Tag Team Champion and the best thing ever Rob Garcia and the man with the best mustache ever.. Maurice Yensman!

Mystery Man: Quite an impressive line-up there as well. I am especially interested and seeing what goes down between Rob Garcia and Grizzly Duggan given the feud that has been rumbling with them for a while now.

Hanks: Iggy Swango beat Emma on the last BRAWL, will Emma see to it that Iggy’s time is cut short in this match?

FBI: I don’t have any questions because I don’t care. Team Heel all day.

Mystery Man: So we have FBI’s pick, who do you have Colin?

Hanks: I don’t want to jinx them, but I have Team Face. I think they’ll be able to get along better than Team Heel and that’s what matters most here.

FBI: How can someone who doesn’t matter possible say what might matter?

Mystery Man: Moving on.. It’s NSFW in their third title defense taking on the Eternal Circle’s Vagn Dahl and Legion. The build up for this match has been heating up on Twitter and both teams are ready to tear into each other. Will it be the defending champions who leave England with the gold, or with the chaotic nature of Discord be too much? Find out tonight!

FBI: I just hope someone smacks Mike around, just a little bit.

Hanks: You know who else would like that? Mike McGuire! The more she’s hurt the more she fights.

FBI: Kinky bitch that one, I bet…

Mystery Man: AND moving on to the monstrous main event. It’s BRAWL vs RAMPAGE vs UPRISING vs PRIME, Brand supremacy on the line.

FBI: Rob Garcia and Dominic Sanders are on BRAWL so BRAWL is clearly the best.. But Mike is also on BRAWL. Shit.

Mystery Man: Speaking of Dominic Sanders.. Team BRAWL, as Captained by The International Champion Griffin Hawkins, consists of the RITB 2018 winner Dominic Sanders, multiple time EWC Champion Nostalgia, current X-Division Champion Happy, and the former Television Champion Kendrick Kross! Hawkins has build up quite a team here folks.

FBI: Only thing he’s ever done right in his life was picking Dominic Sanders to represent BRAWL!

Mystery Man: Hell of a choice for sure FBI. You want to call FN’R Colin?

Hanks: Certainly. Underneath the leadership of The United States Champion Ace King, Team Rampage consists of Ace, “The King of the Hunt” Sebastian Connor, The REAL Rebel Child Georgie Nickles, “The Future” Maggie Lockheart, and the multiple time EWC Champion Shelley Silver. Damn that’s a team!

FBI: No one going to point out Shelley literally slept with the captain to get her spot?

Mystery Man: Now that was uncalled for.

FBI: Meh.

Mystery Man: Moving on, flying under the FSW Uprising Banner, following their Captain, The FSW Champion Robina Hood it’s the former FSW Champ Xavier Reid, “The Deerfield Destroyer” Sarah Roberts, “The Siren of Scorn” Melody Malone, and Robbie “Aire” Rayder!

FBI: Robbie slept with the EWC Undisputed Champion for his spot.

Hanks: Why haven’t we fired you yet?

FBI: Meh

Hanks: Moving on.. It’s Team PRIME! Following the ONLY EWC dual Champion, Candy, It’s the two time Indy Champ and current Television Champion Stitches, “The Future Ace” Killjoy Ito, “The Technicolour Tecnico” El Pablo, and the “BlackHeart” Frankie Romono!

Mystery Man: All of those teams are immensely stacked. Match will be far too close to call!

Hanks: I wouldn’t want to be that ref for anything!

Mystery Man: Indeed! All that and more tonight, on EWC StableWars 2018! We will be back with our first match of the night right after this message from EWCTV.

The fans continue to chant and cheer as we fade out

TAG TEAM ELIMINATION MATCH

---

Nina Dobrev: Ladies and Gentlemen, the following is a 7 on 7 elimination match pitting Team Face against Team Heel. Introducing first, Team Face!

Joe Doe and Kenneth Williams emerge from behind the curtain and walk towards the ring, following them Iggy Swango and Maddox Ayres, following them Jamal Jackson, Grizzly Duggan and Tim Lovecraft. The team slaps hands with fans, takes photos, and each of them wear some sort of smile.

Mystery Man: Team Face is looking FIRED UP!

FBI: Is this over yet?

Nina Dobrev: And their opponents, Team Heel!

Jeff Noon walks out onto the ramp to a roar of boos. Jeff lifts his fist to the sky as Rob Garcia sprints out from the back and rushes towards the ring. Jeff Noon turns and walks back towards the back as the rest of Team Heel walks out. Emma Louise, Jason Lawrence, Bruce Rage, Scott Grayse, Kennedy Matthews, Maurice Yensman all walk to the ring, ignoring the booes directed at them. They enter the ring, taunt team face with some questionable sign language before the ref begins checking everyone.

Mystery Man: Team Heel looks ready to go folks. This match could be a war!

FBI: Rob Garcia looks great!

Hanks: And here we go!

DING DING DING

Grizzly Duggan and Bruce Rage start this one out for their teams. Bruce rushes at Duggan and lands a flurry of punches. Bruce yells in Duggan’s face giving the big man enough time to slam his balled fist into Bruce’s jaw with a sickening thud, stumbling the man and leaving him open to a Duggan bigboot, finishing his signature maneuver. Bruce falls limp on the second rope, and Grizzly grabs his arm and slings Bruce into the face corner with a nasty Irish Whip followed by a brutal corner avalanche. Joe Doe tags himself in as Grizzly yanks Bruce into a snap-mare, Joe is rebounding off the ropes, big dropkick to the side of Bruce’s head! Joe makes the cover!


ONE!

TWO!!

Nina Dobrev: Bruce Rage has been eliminated by Joe Doe! Team Heel is down to six members.

Scott Grayse rushes into the ring, right towards Joe as he tries to stand back up. Grayse connects to the back of Joe’s head with a bigboot before looking at Duggan and taunting him. Joe is starting to stand but is dropped again following a dropkick from Grayse to the back of his head! Scott goes for the cover but doesn’t even get a one count. Scott whips Joe into the ropes, Joe does a punch, rebounds and spear! Joe bounces up and stumbles back to his corner, where Maddox Ayres tags in and then climbs the turnbuckle… Maddox leaps and lands the Fallen Angel! The crowd goes wild, Maddox instantly turns it into a cover!


ONE!

TWO!!

Nina Dobrev: Scott Grayse has been eliminated by Maddox Ayres! Team Heel is down to five members.

Mystery Man: Team Face is taking control early on!

Hanks: Yea!

Maddox pops up as Jason Lawrence rushes at him, Maddox catches Lawrence right under the chin with a superkick that stumbles the PRIME star. Maddox rushes into Jason with a stiff lariat that turns Lawrence inside out. Lawrence is back up, Maddox goes for another superkick, it’s ducked, Lawrence spins Maddox around and hits a deeps standing armdrag, Maddox is back up, this time a hip toss. Lawrence drags Maddox back up to his feet, but Maddox hits a surprise forearm smash that rocks Lawrence and sends him stumbling into enemy territory. Maddox rushes into Lawrence with a second lariat, this one into the corner, as Jamal Jackson tags in. Maddox and Jamal both grab one of Lawrence’s arms and yank him into a double shoulder block! Jamal drags Lawrence up into a headlock and walks him into the middle of the ring before letting him drop.

Mystery Man: Jamal Jackson has full control of Jason Lawrence!

FBI: Come on kid! Tag in Rob Garcia!

Jamal waits for Lawrence to begin to stand before leveling him with a huge jaw-jacking right hook. Jamal then mounts Jason and begins landing a flurry of vicious jabs and punches to Jason’s head. Jamal drags Jason up, before smiling at Team Heel and lifting Jason up while spinning him into a Feel the Thunda’! Jamal covers!


ONE!

Emma Louise enters in an attempt to stop the pinfall.

Nina Dobrev: Jason Lawrence has been eliminated by Jamal Jackson, Teem Heel is down to four members!

Emma Louise explodes into Jamal, stomping on his head with a fury we hadn’t yet seen from her. Jamal gets to his knees, DDT from Emma! She goes for the cover.


ONE!

.
.
KICKOUT BY JAMAL!


Emma slaps the mat before getting to her feet and dragging Jamal into a side-headlock… but before she can do anything Jamal lifts her up and turns it into a Tilt-A-Whirl backbreaker! Emma writhes around in pain on the canvas while Jamal slowly crawls towards his corner. Joe Doe is tagged in! Joe rushes in towards Emma.

Mystery Man: Joe is looking for his second elimination of the night!

Joe’s dreams are ultimately stopped short when Emma stops him with a headbutt to the gut followed by stiff, gunshot sounding, slap right to the face. Joe stumbles back, Emma presses forward and has him in Snap-mare position, and spiked hard on his head! Girl Crush!, Emma doesn’t stop with her finishing move, she leaps at the ropes in-front of her and moonsaults off the middle rope and crashes hard into Joe, and there’s a cover! Rob Garcia and Maurice Yensmen rush into the ring and knock down Team Face and stand guard for the pin!


ONE!

.
.
.

TWO!!

.
.

THREE!!!


Nina Dobrev: Joe Doe has been eliminated by Emma Louise, Team Face is down to six members!

FBI: Rob’s catching up boys!

Tim Lovecraft quickly slides into the ring and floors a retreating Rob with a bigboot. Emma comes from behind Tim and tries to roll him up but The Executioner drags her around and biels her towards a neutral corner. Emma starts to stand as Tim levels her with a bigtime body-avalanche in the corner. Emma collapses to the mat but Tim scoops her up into a suplex position, and then he holds the suplex! Finally after a few seconds, the delay is over and Tim drops Emma hard with the vertical suplex. Tim goes for the cover, but Maurice breaks it up… pissing Tim off in the process. Tim stands to approach Maurice but is caught off-guard by Rob Garcia hitting a chop block, dropping Tim to his knees.

Hanks: Team Heel is surprisingly working well together.

The ref starts to count, but Maurice and Rob are able to hit a double-team vertical suplex onto Tim, giving Emma enough time to tag in Kennedy. The Queen rushes towards the fallen Tim and attempts a cover.


ONE!

.
.
.

BIG KICKOUT BY TIM LOVECRAFT


Mystery Man: Going to take more to keep him down!

Kennedy slaps the mat and argues with the ref that he did a slow count. Tim begins crawling towards his corner where Maddox Ayres awaits. Tim is almost there, but Kennedy has his foot! The Queen is trying to drag Tim to the center of the ring… Grizzly Duggan steps over the top rope and rushes towards Kennedy! Grizzly hits a stiff shoulder block that sends Kennedy into a neutral corner, and then he rushes towards the Heel Corner and levels Rob with a clothesline before Maurice yanks him over the top rope with a huge suplex! Tim tags in Maddox!

Hanks: This match is getting crazy!

Maddox rushes for Kennedy, but she moves just in time… Kennedy leaps to her corner but only Emma is there and she’s still refreshing! Kennedy tags in Emma anyways, and then tosses her into the ring. Emma looks at Kennedy in disbelief as Maddox rushes over and drags her up… but Emma turns it into a small package!


ONE!

.

TWO!!

EMMA WITH A HANDFUL OF TIGHTS!
.
.

THREE!!!


Nina Dobrev: Maddox Ayres has been eliminated by Emma Louise, Team Face is down to five members!

FBI: We are almost caught up now!

Emma uses the ropes to stand, and then she gives Kennedy an evil look. The two begin to exchange words as Tim rolls back into the ring and rushes at Emma with incredible speed, he hits it! THE LOOMING DARKNESS! Emma is flipped inside out and lands on her head hard. Tim does a deep cover.


ONE!

.
.
.

TWO!!

.
.
.

THREE!!!


Nina Dobrev: Emma Louise has been eliminated by Tim Lovecraft, Team Heel is down to three members!

Tim stands up, huffing for breath. Kennedy just stands on the apron, not willing to enter, the Ref begins to count her out. In the face corner Iggy is begging for a tag, to which Tim gives her! Kennedy doesn’t get a chance to enter as Iggy rushes over and hip-tosses her into the ring!

Mystery Man: Iggy has entered this match for the first time and she’s fired up!

Kennedy starts to stand but is instantly dropped by a spinning roundhouse kick! Iggy doesn’t give the Queen a chance to recover, dragging her to her knees and hitting a snap DDT… Iggy lifts Kennedy again, into a headbutt! Both are stunned, Iggy takes a few steps back, just as Maurice leaps from the turnbuckle hitting a big punch to the back of her head, Iggy stumbles forward and gets her knee kicked by Kennedy, causing her to fall… but Iggy rolls to her corner and tags in Jamal!

Hanks: Go Jamal!

Jamal rushes towards Maurice but Maurice ducks his punch, Jamal turns around and Liberty Spear!, from Maurice that almost take’s Jamal out of his boots. Maurice drags Jamal up and throws him at Kennedy, who kicks his knee and hits God Save The Queen!... Cover!


ONE!

.
.

TWO!!

THR… GRIZZLY DUGGAN BREAKS IT UP!


FBI: That fucking cheater!

Rob grabs Grizzly’s leg and pulls him back out before sending him into the barricade! Maurice distracts the ref while Rob slides a chair into the ring, Kennedy happily takes it and looks ready to smash Jamal’s head in. Kennedy begins dragging Jamal up, then she cocks back ready to hit him… but then she hits the mat?

Mystery Man: What is she doing?

Kennedy hits the mat a second time before tossing the chair to Jamal and falling limp… the ref turns around and is furious with Jamal… he’s talking about a DQ, Jamal is pleading with him, but NO! Jamal is DQed!

Nina Dobrev: Jamal Jackson has been eliminated via DQ… Team Face is down to Four members.

Iggy Swango rushes into the ring as Kennedy starts to stand and floors her with a dropkick to the corner. On the outside Kenneth Williams has taken out Maurice Yensmen! Iggy rushes to the opposite corner, and then sprints at Kennedy hitting her with a running hip-attack! Iggy drags Kennedy up and into position for the Non-Zero Possibility, and she hits it! Cover!


ONE!

TWO!!

THREE!!!


Nina Dobrev: Kennedy Matthews has been eliminated by Iggy Swango, Team Heel is down to TWO members!

Rob slides into the ring and hits a surprise dropkick to Iggy dragging her up and hitting a belly-to-belly suplex! Rob goes for the pin but it’s broken up pretty fast by Kenneth Williams. Kenneth helps Iggy to their corner and she tag’s in Tim, Rob tags in Maurice, Maurice tags back in Rob, Rob tags back in Maurice… Tim say’s to fuck with it and charges at both of them! Before being flattened Maurice tagged in Rob who managed to narrowly get out of the way.

FBI: Rob is so damn smart!

The ref is checking on Maurice, giving Rob enough time to come from behind him and kick him in the groin! Tim drops to his knees before getting a kendo stick broken over his head! Rob tosses the pieces out and calls for the ref. He covers!

Mystery Man: Congrats on the win Team Face! What a match!

FBI: BOO!

Hanks: Don’t worry FBI, NSFW’s third title defense is NEXT!

FBI: Why cruel world! WHY!

Mystery Man: Actually I have received word Xavier Reid is backstage. Let's go there now.

---

The cameras cut backstage as Xavier Reid walks down the hallway with Nikki Dupree.

Nikki Dupree: Are you sure this is the best path to prove your point Xavier?

Xavier Reid: Yes...I am not someone that puts my blind trust in someone.

Nikki Dupree: I understand that, but you are declaring open rebellion on the FSW.

The camera cuts back further to show Xavier wearing a FSW t-shirt with the logo upside down.

Xavier Reid: Does that scare you, Nikki?

Nikki Dupree: No, but I have seen what happens when you challenge powerful men.

Xavier Reid: Brandon Carter Banks is not a powerful man. He’s the world’s luckiest man. The FSW was dropped into his lap...MY FSW...and I get that every GM in this business wants to put their own twist to the brand, but not at my expense.

Tlatoani Volando: Hey, we are right here.

Xavier looks down the hallway to where his cousin is standing outside the locker room of Team FSW.

Xavier Reid: No, this is for Team FSW. I’m Team Xavier Reid.

Nikki Dupree: It’s going to look bad Xavier, you not being with them.

Xavier Reid: I could care less. They can help me tonight. Megan is the only one with experience in this type of match. Robbie, Sarah and Melody...they are worthless to me, filler on Team FSW and a sad twist to the term ‘Future Stars of Wrestling’.

Nikki Dupree: And yet one of them could walk out of here as the sole survivor. It could happen. Look at Candy at Night of Champions. Nobody thought that was possible either yet look...she is still the champion. It may have been best to declare this independence AFTER StableWars.

Xavier Reid: No...I want my intentions clear. Tonight, I fight for me and me only. My success will not be the success of the FSW, they will be mine and mine alone. I know where I stand in the FSW. I know I’m being pushed aside for others, and tonight I will show Brandon Carter Banks he bet on the wrong people. So this locker room...that’s for the stars he wants. I will use another.

Xavier walks past Team FSW locker room.

Tlatoani Volando: Well I think I saw a broom closet around the corner. I’m sure you can change in there.

The cameras cut elsewhere.

[FN'R]

Backstage, Bishop Church and Mike McGuire are standing in front of the StableWars backdrop with Ace Heart. Ace Heart is about to say something when Mike snatches the microphone from him.

McGuire: We’re pioneers! We’re explorers! We’re humans …

Mike gets uncomfortably close to the camera.

McGuire: And we’re coming!

The camera retreats to frame the Tag Champs back in the shot. Bishop watches on as Ace backs away, eyes wide.

McGuire: We’re animated! We’re alive and our hearts’re big and there’s hot blood going through them fast!

The camera gets too close and she grabs it and pulls it in!

McGuire: We’re here!

She points at herself and Church collectively.

McGuire: These are humans! This is what we look like! This is what we act like! This is what we are!

Trying to back away, she just follows. Bishop does as well at a distance.

McGuire: We’re setting fires everywhere! And humans are turning on everywhere! Eternal Circle, we’re gonna get our metaphysical hands around your stinking necks, parasites!

Finally, she just walks off set - presumably, hopefully, for their match. Church looks at the camera directly.

Church: What she said.

And he follows her.

TAG TEAM

CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH

ETERNAL CIRCLE

VS NSFW

---

FBI: What the hell was she going on about?

Hanks: Beats me. But it sounded cool!

Mystery Man: It will take more than words to defeat the Eternal Circle. That’s right, next up, we have the world tag team championships on the line. NSFW defends against the Eternal Circle. Now, Legion has been rather dismissive of Mike McGuire and Bishop Church. There have been a few exchanges here and there on social media, but the time for talking is over.

Dobrev: The following match is scheduled for one fall and is for the EWC World Tag Team Championships!

The whistling intro of “Engel” plays over the PA system, setting the crowd off in a chorus of boos as the Eternal Circle make their way to the stage, a grin on Legion's face as he surveys the crowd.

Dobrev: First, the challengers, representing the Eternal Circle, at a combined weight of 550 pounds...the General of Chaos, Vagn Dahl, and the Head Disciple, Legion!

They approach the ring, where Legion slides in as Dahl steps over the top rope. Legion mocks the crowd with another grin on his face as Crowne and Mysti take their place at ringside.

FBI: Look at this! Look at all of these folks. Look at that mountain of a man in Vagn Dahl. NSFW does not stand a chance!

Mystery Man: Hold on, I don’t have much info for you but I can tell you that the two on the outside are Thomas Crown and Mysti. Two more loyal subordinates of Xander Azula. They’re looking to cause some chaos so to speak.

Hanks: So this is going to end up being a 4 on 2 beatdown. How predictable.

Disturbed's cover of Land of Confusion begins to play and the house lights flash along with the beat of the song.

Mike McGuire and Bishop Church step out onto the stage. Mike points out for Bishop various fan signs for them. Side by side, they make their way down to the ring.

Dobrev: And their opponents, now on their way to the ring, at a combined weight of 400 pounds, Mike McGuire and Bishop Church, the reigning and defending EWC WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS, N ...S ...F ...W!

Mike is in the ring bouncing back and forth to either side of the ring multiple times before John finally climbs up the ring steps. They meet in the middle of the ring and look to the crowd. With Bishop two steps behind, they both pose by standing on the second rope each with a title raised in the air.


Mystery Man: Here we go! Oh, there seems to some commotion …

As Crown and Mysti stalk the outside - perhaps looking for an opportunity to join Dahl and Azula - John Dean whispers something to Nina Dobrev before pointing at the two.

Dobrev: Official John Dean has just banned all of members of the Eternal Circle not competing in this match! They will vacate ringside immediately or Eternal Circle will forfeit this match!


FBI: This is bullshit!

Hanks: Is it really? This is a CHAMPIONSHIP BOUT. Do we really need a repeat of what happened with America’s Most Hated on last Monday’s Brawl?

FBI: Yes!

Mystery Man: Alright, now that the odds are evened…

Legion looks to his General and nods. He turns to Thomas and Mysti and calmly waves to the back. The fight leaves them and they disperse with no resistance.

Referee Dean retrieves the title belts from NSFW. He shows them to Legion and Dahl. They stare at them hungrily before Dean goes to the middle and raises them in the air.

Mystery Man: Tag team titles on the line! Let’s go! Ring that bell!

DING DING DING

The camera focuses on the Head Disciple, who measures up his opposition with a calculating gleam in his eyes. After a brief moment’s thought, Legion gestures to Dahl, indicating that he begin the bout for the Eternal Circle.

Upon seeing this, Mike begins bouncing up and down, looking to her own partner almost pleadingly, chomping at the bit to get a piece of the bigger man. Church obliges her with a slight smile and an equally slight nod, and the Bronx Brawler slips quickly through the ropes, bouncing from foot to foot with her fists up.

Mystery Man: Mike McGuire is no stranger to the land of giants. Dahl is a big bad man, but remember it was Mike McGuire who has knocked out Grizzly Duggan not once but twice en route to capturing these tag team championships.

FBI: Don’t remind me! Dahl is 3 times smarter than that soup slurping fool.

Hanks: Duggan isn’t even in this match. He’s on a roll and he’s living rent free in your head, FBI.

Mystery Man: The point I was making is that McGuire relishes in the opportunity to stand toe to toe with a monster like Vagn Dahl. And by the looks of Dahl, he looks like he wants to break her in half.

The two starting combatants go toe to toe, the red-headed spitfire talking no small amount of trash to the General. Dahl seems almost amused at the far smaller McGuire’s antics- until she hauls back with a left and cracks him in the jaw, knocking him back several steps.

Eyes flashing, Dahl rubs his mouth, and then gives an uproarious laugh before striding back over and answering back with a crack across the face that sends McGuire halfway backwards across the ring before she falls to the canvas! She’s up like a shot, though, and rushes the big man again, hitting him with a forearm that sends him back into the ropes. Unfortunately for her, he rebounds off the ropes like a massive pinball, tilting on a heel before flooring his feisty foe with a discus lariat.

Not giving McGuire any time to regroup, Dahl grabs a huge handful of red hair and practically throws his adversary into a neutral corner, closing the gap with a crushing body splash.

Mystery Man: Xander Azula has to be very happy to see his right hand man decimating Mike McGuire early on.

FBI: Aren’t we all?

Hanks: I know I’m not.

FBI: Nobody cares what you think.

Mystery Man: I highly doubt that. And I highly doubt that Mike is down and out. She has to get her partner in right now. She may have bitten off way too much here against what some would consider a desperate Eternal Circle.

Mike starts to slump to the canvas from the impact, but Dahl doesn’t let her hit the mat, seizing her by the straps of her tank top and throwing her into his own corner as if she were a sack of trash. Giving a vile sort of smile over his shoulder to Bishop, the General looms toward McGuire with bad intentions when out of nowhere, Legion darts an arm forward, slapping his partner on the back and tagging himself in.

Mystery Man: Looks like Legion has seen enough. He’s ready to make a statement for the Eternal Circle tonight. They try to leave behind the war against Georgie Nickles to bring the tag team division into a reign of chaos.

FBI: That sounds alright with me.

Hanks: I don’t even get the whole discord thing to be honest.

FBI: That’s because you’re not cool.

Whatever intentions the Head Disciple may have, McGuire doesn’t want any part of them- she swings a fist wildly, almost desperately, towards his head, a punch Legion sees coming a mile away and dodges, countering with a scoop slam that he quickly maneuvers into his trademark Fuerza Special. Mike cries out as her wrist and ankle are twisted, but bites it short to avoid giving Azula the satisfaction. John Dean crouches down, asking Mike if she’s had enough- he gets a snarl and an emphatic head shake in response.

Looking to apply more pressure, Legion sits back a bit more in the hold, but McGuire seems to have been waiting for this as she shifts her weight and rolls the Discordian up in a quick schoolboy.

Rolling backwards, Azula escapes the pin quickly, rising to his knees but getting caught by an ugly but effective front kick by McGuire! She seems to have spent her adrenaline burst, though, as she drops to her hands and knees, panting and crawling for the corner. Mike reaches for Church’s outstretched hand, but Vagn Dahl bursts in, looking to drop an elbow on the New Yorker’s back. However, she has the wherewithal to dodge, lunging forward and smacking her hand against her partner’s, sending Bishop Church into the ring with a pop from the crowd.

Mystery Man: This has already been a rollercoaster of a match! Mike gets Church into this match after taking and dishing out a hell of a beating from the Eternal Circle.

FBI: Bishop Church is about as exciting as the teacup ride.

Hanks: Should I show the world the pictures of you throwing up on that very ride earlier this week?

FBI: Don’t you dare!

Church is in. He flies under a right hand from Legion and clotheslines Dahl over the top rope. The big man tumbles over and surprisingly manages to land on his feet. Church ducks under a clothesline attempt from Xander Azula, hits the ropes and on the rebound shoulder tackles the follower of Discord. He criss crosses the ropes and Legion is up and nearly uses Church’s momentum against him with a huge hip toss before Church keeps latched on and surprises Legion with an arm drag reversal. Both men are back up. Church cuts off Legion with a knee lift to the midsection and goes off the ropes again - however Dahl is back on the apron with a receipt. He clubs Bishop over the back with both of his fists, and the bigger half of NSFW stumbles forward into a drop toehold from Legion.

Mike tries to get in the ring and answer Dahl’s interference, but is cut off by John Dean.

Hanks: I had hopes for this referee. He’s so worried about Mike that he doesn’t see all of the times that Eternal Circle has snuck into this match.

FBI: Eternal Circle is a world traveled tag team. They know all of the tricks!

Mystery Man: That’s right, unfortunately. Referee can only call what he can see, and so far Legion and Dahl seem to be hiding out in his blind spots.

Legion drops an elbow on the small of Church’s back before getting up to his feet and tagging in the General with a slap to the chest. Dahl leaps onto Church’s back with a big splash before shooting a half to roll him over. He hooks Bishop’s inside leg…

Church rolls a shoulder up. Still plenty of energy left. Vagn Dahl forces Bishop Church to his feet by the straps of his singlet. He clubs him over the back right into a front facelock. Church slips out from a vertical suplex and lands on his feet - right into a reverse waistlock. He goes for a huge German suplex, but the big man from somewhere in Iceland grounds himself and staggers Bishop with an elbow to the side of the head. The hold loosens and Dahl breaks it away completely by ripping Church’s hands apart with ease. Dahl puts Church across his shoulders with a fireman’s carry. Bishop tries to fight out of it but the elbows to the temple seemingly have no effect before Dahl sends Church Into Hel!

Dahl rolls to his feet and tags in Legion. Legion scrambles up top and dives off with an elbow drop right into the sternum! Right into a lateral press. The crowd boos intensely at the possibility…

Church’s shoulder goes up before the three count, but this time with less gusto.

Mystery Man: Xander has to be pleased with himself. He was less than a second away from capturing the tag team championships! We saw a glimpse of this tenacity when he tore into Georgie Nickles in that steel cage.

FBI: NSFW is out of their league and this time no luck in the world is going to matter.

Hanks: Oh come on, you know to never count ANYONE out here in the EWC.

Legion ferociously latches on Church’s arm and pulls him up, wrenching the arm in unnatural positions before grinding the point of his elbow into the tag champ’s. It drives him to a knee and Legion reaches out and tags in Dahl. Dahl is in and takes up the armbar from Legion and with an incredible show of strength lifts him into the arm and tosses him through the air almost as easily as he did Mike!

Mystery Man: Very quick and unpredictable tags from the Eternal Circle! As soon as there is even a whiff of resistance, they get the fresh man in. Very admirable strategy thus far.

Vagn goes to flatten Church like a pancake with a running senton splash but Church rolls out of the way! He reaches out towards Mike. The referee is distracted as Dahl grabs his lower back, eliciting pure agony on his face. This allows Legion to sneak in and grab Church by a boot to drag him back to the middle of the ring. Miraculously, Dahl is just fine and he lands the senton this time, driving the air out of Church’s lungs. The bearded big man stays on the attack with vicious elbows to Church’s skull before to double underhook crossface!

Mystery Man: Vagn Dahl calls that Cú Chulainn’s Wrath and that is very fitting. NSFW spent a lot of time mocking their collective wrath over the last week.

FBI: Maybe after all of this, they’ll learn to not talk shit.

Hanks: Really? You’re buying into this whole Greek Goddess thing?

FBI: What? At least they’re not Scientologists.

John Dean listens for the submission. With both arms trapped, Bishop has no way to tap out and Dahl seems to like it like that as he wrenches back on the hold looking to a tear and rip muscles. Legion laughs maniacally.

Mike tries once again to get involved and Dean quickly turns her way. She yells profanities as Legion gets into the ring and lays boots into Church’s head as Dahl torques back on the crossface. Church has fought to maneuver himself towards the ropes and manages to put a toe over the bottom rope …

But the referee doesn’t see it! Mike begrudgingly goes back to her corner and sees no evidence of the rope break as Legion has kicked the foot off the ropes!

For a moment, Dahl readjusts the crossface to move him closer to the ring -- that little opening allows Church to roll Vagn onto his shoulders!

Dahl is forced to break his own submission to avoid defeat!

Mystery Man: Bishop Church almost caught Dahl sleeping there!

FBI: Not hard to fall asleep to Bishop Church.

Hanks: I’ll be honest, NSFW doesn’t look like they have too much left here.

Legion is in with a blind tag. He cuts off Church’s retreat with a boot to the head Up to his feet, twists him around with a neckbreaker. Church fights out out with a shot to the ribs. Legion fires back with rapid knee lifts. Front face lock…

Church powers out of the DDT attempt and shoulders him into NSFW’s turnbuckle!!

Mike tags in!! Fresh and rejuvenated. She takes over as Church collapses and rolls out onto the apron. She lays into Xander Azula with rights and lefts with no intended target. Midsection, chest, face, his ears - Mike wails on the Disciple of Chaos with malicious intentions. John Dean gets in between the two and before Legion can do anything, Mike reaches over and out of the sight of Dean and jabs Legion in the eye with her thumb. She backs away. Dean steps away, satisfied that they’re out of the corner. Mike closes the distance with a kick to the gut and then a Rubbernecker that shakes the ring from the impact! She floats over the cover!

Legion kicks out and Mike replies with a forearm right to Legion’s jaw. She slaps the mat with frustration and then looks to Church. She mouths something to him unheard. He shakes off the cobwebs and gets into the ring …

Mystery Man: Big time neckbreaker from McGuire but this is for the gold. She is calling for something big here. Maybe Bishop takes Queen?

That’s exactly what they seem to have in mind! Bracing herself, Mike takes the hard shove from her partner and is promptly catapulted with a rather demented looking grin towards her target- but is snatched harshly out of the air by her throat, and slammed down onto Legion’s waiting knee hard for the Knightfall! Tumbling onto the canvas, Azula quickly covers the redhead.

Realizing his error, Church all but spins on his heel and lunges forward, shoving Legion hard off of his partner to break up the pin. Dahl gets involved then, clotheslining Church over the top rope. Acting with a speed belying his size, he drags Azula over to their territory and tags himself in, making himself the legal man.

FBI: Turnabout is fair play! That was payback for earlier.

Hanks: The Eternal Circle is being true to form- they’ve been playing dirtier than pigs in mud this entire match.

FBI: It’s not dirty, it’s chaotic! Don’t disparage their religion, what kind of an American are you?

Mystery Man: We’re in England…

Dahl bearhugs Mike, lifting her up into the air, her head popping up over her shoulder, giving Legion a blazing red target for his diving neckbreaker!

FBI: Welcome to Discordia, you ginger bitch!

Hanks: You’re stealing Bennett’s lines now? You’re absolutely shameless.

Mystery Man: This looks very bad for NSFW.

1





Church darts into the ring, snatching up Legion into a belly-to-belly suplex and dumping him onto the outside.






2





He moves quickly to his partner, looking to knee Dahl in the head and break up the pin…




...and he makes it just in the nick of time, kneeing the bearded big man in the temple not a moment too soon! Growling in pain, Dahl rolls off of Mike, holding his head. Reaching down, Church helps Mike to her feet, the two of them glancing at the recovering Discordian, then at each other, nodding as if silently agreeing on a course of action.

Before any more time passes for Dahl to get a second wind, Bishop slams a knee into the man’s other temple, sending him reeling to the side right into Mike’s fist as she Knocks him for Six, sending him collapsing to the canvas.

Hanks: Batter Up, Motherf--

FBI: Shut your filthy mouth! It’s not over yet, kid, look at Dahl.

Indeed, before NSFW can capitalize on their combination, the beastly Irishman begins to rise, cackling wickedly. Not wasting any time, NSFW tries again, changing positions, Church’s crushing knee again sending Dahl’s head into Mike’s waiting knockout punch, and again the General falls prone to the mat.

Mystery Man: That has GOT to be it.

FBI: HA! It isn’t, though. Eris is giving Dahl superhuman durability!

Hanks: Do you know how stupid you sound?

Dahl is rising again, sure enough, but significantly slower this time. He isn’t laughing but is grinning like a madman, though there’s a somewhat dazed look in his eyes. NSFW look at each other with a significant amount of alarm, and at a quick suggestion of ‘do it again!’ from Mike, they execute their Batter Up, MFer combo one last time. One more knee to the head. One more punch. Church quickly breaks away and shoves a recovering Legion hard off the apron as Mike hooks Dahl’s leg, pressing the far bigger man down to the mat for all she’s worth…

DING DING DING 

Dobrev: Your winners, and STILL EWC Tag Team Champions, Mike McGuire, Bishop Church, NSFW!

Hanks: After a herculean effort to put Vagn Dahl down, NSFW has once again managed to retain their titles, continuing to set a shining example for the whole division.

Mystery Man: The Eternal Circle has nothing to be ashamed of, though. They dominated the champions through this entire match, and it took four knees and three knockout punches to put the beast that is Vagn Dahl away.

FBI: They still lost. I told you all that Eris stuff was a bunch of crap.

Checking on each other’s well being first, NSFW hold up their titles to a great cheer from the crowd. Dahl rolls out of the ring and helps the Head Disciple up, the two looking rather sour as they head to the back.

Mystery Man: NSFW turns away the powerful Eternal Circle this time to hold on as tag team championships - but folks, we’ve our main event next. Settle in. 4 hand picked teams from each of EWC’s brands will battle for supremacy - right here on Stable Wars!

---

Ace Heart beckons his cameraman to follow him through the backstage area; after hastily navigating a pair of hallways, he arrives at the Friday Night Rampage locker room, where the large, black door is closed over. Heart listens in briefly as there are voices coming from the other side of the door; after a few seconds, he gives the door a knock.

Ace Heart: Excuse me, Team Rampage?

The voices fall silent as Heart waits patiently. After a few seconds, the crowd cheers as Rampage captain and United States Champion Ace King steps out of the room with his arms crossed, immediately sighing once he sees his interviewing namesake.

Ace Heart: Would I be able to trouble you for a quick comment ahead of tonight’s Four-Brand Elimination Match?

King looks skyward briefly, pondering the question before a small smirk crosses his face; he then puts his arm around Heart’s shoulders.

Ace King: You know, there was a wise being who, long ago, said the very prophetic words… It’s not easy being green.

The United States Champion relaxes his other arm, revealing the full design of the Team Rampage t-shirt for StableWars.


Heart raises an eyebrow at King, whose abnormally whimsical smirk remains as he continues.

Ace King: Sometimes, it just seems like you blend in with so many other ordinary things and get passed over… Who knows? It might be nicer being red, orange, blue, or something more colourful…

Then, King gets significantly more serious as he stares straight into the camera, pointing to the door behind him.

Ace King: But let me tell you something: Every last one of the people in that locker room right now… We EMBRACE being green. We EMBRACE the challenge of trying to stand out. Damnit, WE EMBRACE WHAT WE ARE!

After a deep breath, King maintains his serious expression, though there’s a brief twinkle in his eye as he puffs his chest out a bit so the camera can get a good look at the t-shirt design.

Ace King: If the other brands want to underestimate us… Well? That’s none of our business… We’ll be content taking care of ours in the ring tonight, because not only do we embrace being green, WE WILL BLEED GREEN, BECAUSE WE ARE… Rampage.

With that, King retreats back into the Friday Night Rampage locker room.

[FN'R]

As camera go backstage, the first thing you can see is a close-up of the EWC Undisputed Championship and a Prime logo t-shirt. Once the scene begins to pan out, Candy is seen standing in her locker room, surrounded by goodies. Over her shoulder is the Indy Championship and in her hand is a giant lollipop.

Candy: Still enjoying the perks of having the show on an Amusement Park. As I said before, this is right up my alley!

Candy giggles and momentarily sucks on it.

Candy: All kidding aside, in just a short time from now, I will lead team Prime into battle against the other 3 brands.

She pauses slightly. 

Candy: I know I’ve gotten a lot of flak from other competitors over who I’ve chosen to be my teammates. But when you think about it, they’re in no better position, so they might want to zip it!

She gives the camera a stern look.

Candy: The fact is, we’re all walking into this match with our heads on a swivel. Because none of us can really be sure who’s going to strike first. Our opponents or our partners. It’s anyone’s guess as to how this is going to go. That’s what makes this exciting and keeps us on our toes!

Candy nods with a little shrug.

Candy: But I can’t say I’m all that worried about it. Because if anything, I know how badly my partners want this win. To prove that we don’t have to be on the bigger shows to be considered the best. Not that we don’t already know that. However, after StableWars, the rest of you will know it too.

She sucks on her lollipop again before licking her lips.

Candy: It’s going to be a sweet moment when Prime is presented that trophy. But until then, I’ll prepare myself for it with the rest of these treats. Keeping things extra sweet!

Candy winks and turns away from the camera. As she examines her choices, the scene begins to fade.

Mystery Man: And now, ladies and gentleman, for the war for brand supremacy! This match could go literally any way--

FBI: No it couldn’t, Mystery Man. We all know that RAMPAGE is gonna choke.

Hanks: Actually, I beg to differ. I don’t think RAMPAGE is going to choke. I don’t think ANYONE is going to choke. There isn’t a single person in this match that isn’t driven to succeed, be it for brand pride or their own ambitions.

Mystery Man: I couldn’t agree more. Nina, take it away!

Dobrev: Ladies and gentlemen, it is time for our main event of the evening which is an elimination match for brand supremacy! Joining us now is a very special guest. Here to play out all of the teams in the main event is international superstar… MARSHMELLO!

The crowd is silent in anticipation as the overhead lights dim, the entire arena going black. That darkness remains until a reverberating bass note hits, the sound bringing the fans to their feet with cheers as a rainbow of lights flood the arena with color. Atop the MacTron itself, a DJ booth has been erected… and standing within it is none other than Marshmello himself, smiling mask gleaming in the light.

Gesturing out in greeting to the crowd, the world-famous DJ and remix artist launches into an energetic mini-mix of some of his greatest solo hits, ‘Happy’ being the song that he goes into last… and as that last note hits, the lights once again go dark, cheers filling the darkness.

Hanks: That was awesome! Mac really outdid himself on this one, didn’t he?

FBI: I just hope that Marshmallow--

Hanks: Mello, FBI. Marshmello.

FBI: Whoever he is, I hope he doesn’t fall. That’d be the last thing we need… a lawsuit because some DJ I’ve never heard of HAD to be a show-off.

Red lights flare into life along the edges of the rampway, stage, and the Mactron all alike… the light display joined by an absolutely rocking remix of -’Thunderstruck’ by AC/DC and ‘Made in Hell’ by Rob Halford hits the sound system. It is into this fittingly crimson scene that Team BRAWL emerges from the back, all five members decked out in the t-shirts that serve as the uniform to unite them all. Griffin Hawkins, International Championship around his waist, pauses at the top of the ramp, grinning at the crowd while Dominic Sanders barely manages to hide his contempt for the masses that turned on him once he revealed the truth. Happy looks… well, happy to get some licks in on whatever poor bastard gets in his way as he shifts the X-Division Championship on his shoulder. The apparently reborn Nostalgia looks out over the crowd as if he’s never seen a group of people this large in one place before, and Kendrick Kross is playing to the crowd with the same fervor as always.

Dobrev: Weighing in at a combined total of twelve hundred and forty-six pounds, they are X-Division Champion Happy, Nostalgia, Kendrick Kross, Dominic Sanders, and International Champion Griffin Hawkins… TEAM BRAWL!

Looking to his left then his right, Griffin can be heard screaming “LET’S ROCK!” as he motions for his teammates to join him, the quintet representing BRAWL heading down the ramp, most of the men slapping hands except for Sanders who settles for jaw-jacking at a couple fans that make the mistake of trying to reach for him. Getting into the ring, all five wrestlers take a moment to stand in the middle of the ring, thrusting a fist skyward in a display of team unity that further earns an ovation. As the mash-up fades, Team BRAWL move to their designated corner to begin readying themselves for the match to come.

Mystery Man: On the surface, Team BRAWL looks cohesive… but that cohesion is fragile, and everyone knows it.

FBI: Of course it is! If anyone should be leading BRAWL, it’s the ACTUAL best man on the roster in Dominic Sanders!

Hanks: And that’s saying nothing about the tension between other members of the team, though I’ve noticed something. Is it just me, or does Nostalgia look a little confused?

FBI: Hah, doesn’t he always?!

Up in his booth, Marshmello can be seen swapping around vinyls before the trademark hue of RAMPAGE comes into view, vivid green lights taking up where the red ones left off to almost dye the air the color of the team that is about to emerge. ‘Come As You Are ’ by Nirvana and ‘Ace of Spades’ by Motorhead are merged into one, same as the goals of the five competitors that emerge from the back have merged into proving that RAMPAGE is the true flagship show of the EWC. Ace King all but explodes from behind the curtain, US Championship around his waist as he plays to the crowd… and he’s not at it alone for long, since Georgie Nickles and Shelley Silver both are hot on his heels to do much the same. Sebastian O’Conner is next to emerge, his expression one of total focus as he looks down the ramp at Team BRAWL. Magdalena Lockheart is the last to emerge, moving to where she can make eye-contact with her teammates before all five share a nod that’s as in-sync as their matching green t-shirts.

Dobrev: Weighing in at a combined total of seven hundred and eighty-six pounds, they are Georgie Nickles, Shelley Silver, Sebastian O’Conner, Magdalena Lockheart, and United States Champion Ace King… TEAM RAMPAGE!

Ace doesn’t have to say anything to let his team know that it’s time to move out; they all begin their way down the ramp in unison, the fans occasionally getting a hand slapped… but it’s clear that all five wrestlers are focused on ending BRAWL’s dominance over Stable Wars at any cost and taking their place as the flagship brand of the EWC. This is a team that is unified solidly in their goal, and that cohesion is obvious as the quintet enter the ring and, rather than taking any time to showboat? They all head to their corner to begin discussing strategy, murmuring amongst themselves as the music fades.

Mystery Man: While BRAWL might have cracks that can be seen from a mile away, there is no denying that RAMPAGE is united in their goal to escape BRAWL’s shadow.

FBI: A shadow that Magdalena Lockheart put them in to begin with! Honestly, they should just leave her alone to clean up the mess SHE caused.

Hanks: Good thing they know to ignore you, huh? If only we could…

Mystery Man: Despite my broadcast partner’s vitriol, the reality of the matter is that Ace King has shown great strategy in assembling his team. It’s clear he’s not willing to accept failure this time around.

There’s another flourish from Marshmallo before orange becomes the color of the moment, the lights all flashing to the beat of the remix that combines ‘Rise’ by Something Clever and ‘Viridian City’ by Jonathan Young and 331Erock. The warmth of the hue is matched by the energy that Robina Hood brings to bear as she barrels out from behind the curtain, stopping at the top of the ramp with a bit of a skid before she stops, her title shifting a bit on her shoulder before she re-adjusts it back into place. Xavier Reid seems less than amused by the antics of FSW’s reigning champion as he emerges next, though Melody Malone is quick to join her captain in surveying the crowd with a confident smile on her lips. Robbie Rayder is next to come out, taking his place on Robina’s other side to take it all in while Sarah Roberts is the last to come out, bouncing to and fro on the tips of her toes in clear anticipation of the fight to come.

Dobrev: Weighing in at a combined total of eight hundred and fifty-one pounds, they are Xavier Reid, Sarah Roberts, Robbie Rayder, Melody Malone, and FSW Champion Robina Hood… TEAM FSW!

With an enthusiastic shout of ‘C’mon, guys!’, Robina leads the charge down the ramp, moving quickly toward the ring. After looking at one another and sharing a shrug, Melody and Robbie both take off after their captain, with Sarah jogging her way after the pack. Xavier can be seen sighing to himself before he too sets off, albeit at a more reasonable speed. Such means he’s the last to enter the ring, but he gets there just in time to join the rest of the orange-clad members of Team FSW in posing together in the center of the ring, the crowd cheering them all. As their mix fades, they head to their corner.

Mystery Man: Robina Hood is definitely raring to go tonight, as is the rest of her team!

FBI: Clearly, Xavier Reid should be the one leading the charge here. Robina might be a monster, but there’s far bigger ones in this match than the last one she took down!

Hanks: Can ANY of the teams do anything right in your opinion? Actually, no… don’t answer that question. I know the answer.

FBI: Why you little--

Yellow and blue are the last colors to take over the arena’s lights, a mash-up of ‘Could’ve Been Me’ by the Struts merged with ‘I Want Candy’ by Aaron Carter filling the air as Marshmello works his brand of magic for the last time. With both shoulders occupied by EWC Championship gold, Candy is the first to emerge from behind the curtain with a bounce in her step and a smile on her lips. Stitches is also grinning as he comes out with the TV Title slung over his shoulder, though his is decidedly not nearly as friendly… and it only grows wider as Frankie Romono comes out next. The former Blackheart makes a point of ignoring that bit of non-verbal jabbing, choosing instead to join Candy at the top of the ramp. El Pablo takes up his spot between the clown and Romono, the Technicolor Technico masked in the same yellow as the t-shirts every member of the team is wearing. Even Killjoy Ito has donned the sunny-colored cotton, even if he’s emerging with the same serious and focused expression as always. Motioning to her teammates, Candy cajoles everyone into joining her at the top of the ramp.

Dobrev: Weighing in at a combined total of one thousand and three pounds, they are Television Champion Stitches, Killjoy Ito, Frankie Romono, El Pablo, and Undisputed and Indy Champion Candy… TEAM PRIME!

“Put your hands in!” It takes more than that to convince Stitches especially, but eventually all five members of Team PRIME put their hands in before Candy’s exuberantly moving hers skyward, bringing the rest along with hers. With that out of the way, Team PRIME makes their way down to the ring as a relatively united front, mostly thanks to how Frankie Romono and Stitches are on opposite ends of the quintet even as they all enter the ring. Much like RAMPAGE, there is no real playing to the crowd… not when the tension between all twenty competitors gathered in the ring is so intense. Wisely, Candy instead chooses to lead her team right to their corner, their music fading soonafter.

Mystery Man: Considering the championship gold that lies in PRIME’s hands, I have to admit that gold is a fitting color for the indy brand.

FBI: Just wait until Wrestlefest when Sanders knocks the sweet tooth right out of Candy’s mouth. Then, that belt will be where it belongs!

Hanks: What, around the waist of a two-faced slimebag that has to have back-up to get anything done on his own?

FBI: How dare you besmirch the future champion’s good name like that!

Mystery Man: Anyway, with all our competitors in the ring, it looks like the referee’s about to get our main event of the evening underway!

DING DING DING

As the bell rings, the crowd is absolutely buzzing. Before any of the action even happens, the crowd’s chant is deafening.

THIS IS AWESOME!
THIS IS AWESOME!
THIS IS AWESOME!
THIS IS AWESOME!

All twenty members of the match are still in the ring. Head referees Paul Turner (Brawl), John Dean (Rampage), Matt Mercer (Uprising), and Niklaus Forbes (Prime) are all present for this match. They stand in the middle of the ring trying to get their respective teams in order, telling them that one person for their team must start the match. After a few moments of jawing at each other from across the ring, sixteen wrestlers begin to head out onto the ring apron. The four left in the ring are Griffin Hawkins, Ace King, Robina Hood, and Candy.

Mystery Man: It appears the team captains are going to take charge and start this one off!

Hanks: I have goosebumps!

FBI: Quit getting your panties all twisted, Hanks!

Mystery Man: And due to Candy being the Undisputed Champion of the EWC, it will be Prime’s head referee Niklaus Forbes who will remain in the ring. The other three officials will take post outside of the ring.

As Turner, Dean, and Mercer exit the ring, the four champions look at each other from their corners. The crowd has calmed down a bit, but suddenly a small roar comes from the Brawl side of the ring as Kendrick Kross reaches over the top rope and tags himself in.

Hanks: Well… maybe there’s a change of plans in the red corner.

FBI: I don’t think this was a plan, you goon. It looks like Kross is going to ruin things for the eminent Brawl domination tonight.

Kross hops over the top rope and into the ring. Hawkins, shaking his head exits the ring and, oddly, stands on the ring apron next to Dominic Sanders. Sanders rolls his eyes and looks into the ring as they wait for the action to begin. The antsy Ace King sprints at Kross and shoves a shoulder right into his midsection, pushing him back into the Brawl corner. Robina Hood sprints at Candy, looking to attack the Undisputed Champion. Candy sidesteps Hood and sends her into the ropes. Hood bounces back and is met by a back-body drop from Candy. King has pulled Kross out from the corner to keep the Brawl team from performing any shenanigans. King, instead, drags Kross to the Rampage corner and tags in his fiancee Shelley Silver.

FBI: Shocking. Playing favorites to his woman.

Hanks: That’s his teammate. He’s allowed to tag her.

FBI: But he could’ve tagged anyone else. Instead, he tags Shelley.

Shelley gets into the ring and grabs ahold of Kendrick Kross with King. The two of them lift Kross up and deliver a textbook double-suplex to Agent K2, King exits the ring shortly after. On the other side of the ring, Candy has Robina Hood underneath her arm and she runs and delivers a bulldog to the FSW Champion. Candy gets up off of the ground realizing she is in the FSW corner. She looks over at her husband and gives him a smile and a wink.

Mystery Man: Mind games, guys?

Hanks: I mean, she loves her husband.

FBI: Cut it out, Hanks. You’re making me sick.

As Candy turns around, Shelley Silver sprints at her looking to clothesline her head off. Candy ducks the attempt and finds herself face-to-face with Kendrick Kross. The two best friends smile at each other and lock arms and run and deliver a double-clothesline to Robina. They keep their grip and look to deliver a double-clothesline to Silver, but Silver ducks the attempt. Silver sprints at them and knocks Candy through the ropes and out of the ring with a jumping knee to the lower back. Kross swings wildly at Silver, but Silver ducks it and drives a forearm underneath his chin. Candy clutches her lower back and slowly walks around the ring. In the ring, Silver hits Kross with a hurricanrana. She pops up to her feet and stands next to Kross, facing away from him. She flips and hits a standing moonsault for our first pinning attempt of the match.

Kross kicks out.

Candy slips into the ring and sees Robina Hood beginning to get to her feet. She grabs Robina by the head and drags her to the Prime corner, tagging in Frankie Romono.

Hanks: Here comes the Blackheart!

Romono gets into the ring and drives a double-axe handle into the shoulder of Robina Hood. The camera pans around the ring, looking at all of the faces of the competitors. It stops on Nostalgia, who has a very perplexed and studious look on his face.

FBI: Helloooo. Anybody home? Nostalgia looks like he doesn’t know where he is.

Mystery Man: Well… he kind of doesn’t.

Romono goes to work on the shoulder of Robina Hood, putting her in a hammerlock. She reaches down between her legs, trying to grab his foot. Romono dodges the attempt and spins Hood around. He drives a knee up into her face with a knee lift. Meanwhile, Silver has Kross in the Rampage corner and she is driving knees into his stomach. Lockheart grabs Kross’ left arm and Conner grabs his right arm. They hold him in the corner as Silver backs up into the center of the ring. She sprints at Kross and nails him with the Silver Bullet! Kross falls limp to the mat. Silver rolls him over and covers him.

Dobrev: Kendrick Kross has been eliminated!



Mystery Man: And Team Brawl is down one!

Hanks: Great chemistry between Team Rampage, there.

FBI: That was cheating! Not chemistry!

Hanks: But don’t look now! Here comes Nostalgia!

FBI: This is a bad move on his part!

Hanks: Why’s that?

FBI: That man doesn’t know what the hell he is doing in there! He’s not the same Nostalgia, nor is he Leviathan. He’s just a man.

Nostalgia comes into the ring and sprints at Romono. He delivers a hard clothlesline. He knees Robina in the face. He looks at Silver and leaps up, bringing her down with a hurricanrana!

Mystery Man: What a move!

Hanks: It’s like… it’s like he’s been watching this match and is just emulating the moves he’s seen.

Mystery Man: You know, I think that’s exactly what he’s doing.

FBI: You’re telling me this guy doesn’t know what the hell he’s doing, but just by watching he’s managed to perfect these moves?

Hanks: It’s like riding a bike…

FBI: Don’t give me that bullshit, Hanks.

Nostalgia grabs Robina Hood and shoves her into the Brawl corner. He backs up and sprints at her, nailing her with a Silver Bullet!

FBI: That’s gimmick infringement!

Hood falls to the mat and Nostalgia covers her.

Xavier Reid steps through the ropes to break up the pin, but he is too late!

3!

Dobrev: Robina Hood has been eliminated!



Mystery Man: Holy cow! FSW’s captain is gone! I don’t believe it!

Hanks: That was certainly a shocker, guys!

Mystery Man: And Xavier Reid tried to break it up, but he was a hair too late.

FBI: Because we all know he’s the true team captain! That’s what he does for his teammates!

Reid stays in the ring and stomps on Nostalgia’s head immediately following the three-count. Romono and Silver are up to their feet and trading blows on one side of the ring. Reid grabs Nostalgia and picks him up off of the mat. He grabs ahold of the big man and locks in the X’ed Out!

Mystery Man: This could be it for Nostalgia!

FBI: Spoke too soon!

Dominic Sanders steps through the ropes and drives a shin right across the bridge of Reid’s nose, making him release the hold. He drags Nostalgia to the Brawl corner and steps back through the ropes to the ring apron.

Hanks: That was interesting for Dominic Sanders to do. He doesn’t care about anyone but himself!

FBI: He’s a team player!

Griffin Hawkins reaches down over the top rope and tags himself in to the delight of the crowd. Hawkins steps through the ropes and stomps on Reid, whose nose has been cut and is bleeding. Silver has gained the upper hand on Romono. She has him backed into the Rampage corner and delivers a hard knife-edge chop to the Blackheart. A second chop is even louder, inciting a “WOO!” from the folks in attendance. After a few moments of way-laying Xavier Reid, Hawkins grabs Reid and Irish-whips him into the ropes. Hawkins goes for the Shot in the Dark, but Reid grabs the top rope and hangs on. As Griffin’s feet land back on the mat, Reid puts Hawkins in a rear waistlock and German suplexes him over the top rope and to the floor! Reid sprints across the ring and bounces off the ropes. On the return, he does a cartwheel into a back-hand round off over the top rope corkscrew dive on Hawkins!

Mystery Man: X-Treme Air!

FBI: X-TREMELY DUMB!

Hanks: What are you talking about? That was a heck of a move.

FBI: And he hurt himself in the process.

Reid and Hawkins lay on the floor outside the ring. FSW referee Matt Mercer begins a ten count to allow Forbes to focus on Romono and Silver. Silver goes for a deep hip toss on Romono, but Romono athletically lands on his feet. He runs and bounces off of the ropes and Killjoy Ito tags himself in. Romono lands a running discus forearm right to Silver’s jaw, knocking her to her knees. Ito gets into the ring and runs at Silver, delivering the Kettei-da! He covers Silver.

Broken up by Ace King!

Hanks: That was about to be it for Shelley Silver. Ace King saved his teammate!

FBI: His lady.

Mystery Man: Don’t be short-sighted. This is all about teamwork!

Outside the ring, Mercer’s count is at six as Reid is up to his feet. He rolls Hawkins into the ring and gets up onto the ring apron. He waits as Hawkins slowly gets to his feet. Reid springboards off of the top rope and nails Hawkins with a Superman Punch! He covers Hawkins.

Kickout by Hawkins.

Reid gets up frustrated and decides it’s over for Hawkins. He picks Hawkins up off of the ground and puts Hawkins’ head between his legs. He lifts Hawkins up and sprints towards the FSW corner, nailing him with a buckle-bomb, springboarding off of the middle rope, and finishing the X-Tinction! He covers Hawkins again.

3!

Dobrev: Griffin Hawkins has been eliminated.



Hanks: And now Brawl is down their captain!

Mystery Man: More importantly, Team Brawl is down two people in the first three eliminations!

Hanks: This is turning out to be a short night for Team Brawl!

FBI: There’s a LOT of wrestling left to go.

Killjoy Ito has Shelley Silver in the Prime corner and is striking her with elbows and knees. Silver manages to duck a forearm attempt and spins out of the corner. She now has Ito in the corner and delivers a hard dropkick, knocking him down into a seated position in the corner. She sprints across the ring and then runs at Ito, looking for a broncobuster. Ito’s teammate El Pablo grabs him and yanks him out of the way, causing Silver to miss and hit the corner hard. Happy is now in the ring for Brawl and he sprints over and grabs Silver out of the corner. Xavier Reid comes over and he and Happy deliver a double-hanging brain buster to Silver.

Mystery Man: Odd teamwork by the Brawl and FSW superstars.

Hanks: Reid knows better than to cross Happy.

FBI: Or they both just want to eliminate Silver…… or each other!

Reid and Happy get to their feet and Reid runs at Happy with a clothesline, Happy ole’s Reid and sends him through the ropes to the outside. Happy lifts Silver up off of the mat and picks her up. He nails her with The Demon Awaits and into the jackhammer for the pinning attempt!

Ace King back into the ring to break it up.

He’s cut off by Nostalgia, who nails a clothesline on Ace King.

Dobrev: Shelley Silver has been eliminated!



Hanks: And now Rampage is down one!

Mystery Man: Right now, Prime is the only team that is fully intact!

Nostalgia exits the ring and Ace King stays in. Ito and Reid both roll back in under the bottom rope. Ito tags Romono back in, who runs over and starts trading blows with Happy.

Hanks: We’ve seen these two go at it before! This one is about to explode!

Happy gains the upper hand and nails Romono with a DDT. He walks over to his corner and tags in Nostalgia. King crawls over to his corner and tags in Magdalena Lockheart. Reid has taken advantage of the situation and sits on top of Romono and drives right fists into the skull of Romono. Lockheart and Nostalgia enter the ring and the crowd goes nuts as they stare at each other in the middle of the ring. Lockheart lunges at Nostalgia and nails him with the discus elbow and then a spinning back elbow, something she calls the Event Horizon. Nostalgia is dazed and Lockheart springboards off of the ropes looking for The Black Star. Nostalgia catches her in mid-air and thinks back to earlier in the match. He puts her down and into a rear waistlock and delivers a heavy German Suplex to Lockheart. He goes for a cover.

Kickout by Lockheart.

FBI: For just watching the action, Nostalgia sure is doing alright for himself.

Reid sprints over and jumps, driving a knee into the side of Nostalgia’s face. Nostalgia falls to the mat on his hands and knees. Romono is up and sprints and spears Reid through the ropes and the two fall to the floor. He begins some payback by slugging into Reid’s bloody nose with his right fist. Lockheart is up to her feet. She sees the downed Nostalgia and bounces off of the ropes. She runs at him and nails him with the Lacrimosa! She covers Nostalgia!

Happy steps through the ropes.




3!

Happy stomps on Lockheart, but he is too late to save Nostalgia from elimination.

Dobrev: Nostalgia has been eliminated!



Mystery Man: ANOTHER one down for Brawl!

Hanks: For those keeping count, we have all five from Prime... Magdalena Lockheart, Ace King, Sebastian Conner, and Georgie Nickles for Rampage... Xavier Reid, Melody Malone, Robbie Rayder, and Sarah Roberts for FSW… and only Happy and Dominic Sanders remain for Brawl!

FBI: Okay, now I’m a bit nervous for Team Brawl.

Hanks: And, in the ring right now, we have Happy for Brawl, Xavier Reid for FSW, Frankie Romono for Prime, and Magdalena Lockheart for Rampage.

Romono rolls off of Reid and slides into the ring. Happy goes back and forth between stomping on Lockheart’s head and Romono’s head, trying to keep Brawl’s hopes alive. Reid is up to his feet on the outside. He slowly walks around the ring as Matt Mercer counts him at five. He reaches up and slaps the leg of Sarah Roberts.

Mystery Man: I guess that’s a tag?

Hanks: Matt Mercer says it is.

FBI: That’s so smart of Xavier Reid. Not even risking getting into the ring to tag. Why would he? Just slap Roberts’ leg and tell her to get her ass in there.

Roberts steps through the ropes and runs at Happy, laying him to the mat with a clothesline. Happy pops up to his feet, but Roberts quickly headbutts Happy, busting him open with the Lights Out! She covers Happy!

Sanders into the ring breaks up the pin, saving his only teammate from elimination!

Mystery Man: Dominic Sanders breaks it up. He was almost the only Brawl member left!

FBI: Happy would’ve kicked out from that sissy headbutt. He’s one of the toughest men in this company.

Hanks: I don’t know. We’ve see Sarah put many people down with that headbutt.

Lockheart crawls over and tags Sebastian Conner into the match. He sprints over and kicks Romono in the stomach. He sets him up for a powerbomb, but Romono reverses it into a back-body drop. Roberts pulls Happy over towards her corner, his blood rolling onto the wrestling surface. She turns Happy over and locks him into the Highlight of the Night! Sanders steps through the ropes again to break it up, but Robbie Rayder and Melody Malone are in and they cut him off with a double clothesline over the top rope!

Hanks: There’s no way Happy taps out, right?

FBI: Not a chance!

Romono grabs Conner and lifts him off of the ground and up, laying him down with a Sicilian Drop. Happy’s face starts to fade as the blood runs down onto Roberts’ hands. Sanders walks around the ring to try and avoid Rayder and Malone, but they play defense inside the ring. Sanders, realizing he must work quicker, sprints around the ring this time. Ace King drops off of the apron to stop Sanders. Sanders reaches King and goes for a spear to try and run through King. King side-steps it and delivers a drop-toe hold to Sanders. Sanders smacks his forehead on the ring steps!

Mystery Man: Sanders is down!

Hanks: Ooooh… and he is busted open!

Sanders’ forehead is sliced from the edge of the steps and now he is also bleeding. In the ring, Romono sprints at Malone and Rayder, clotheslining both in the back of the head and knocks them through the ropes. Happy’s eyes are closed. Forbes checks the arm.

Happy’s arm drops once. Forbes grabs his wrist again.







2



Happy’s arm drops again.

Hanks: Happy may not pass out, but he’s about to be eliminated.



Forbes grabs the wrist one more time…










3!

Dobrev: Happy has been eliminated!



FBI: Oh shit.

Mystery Man: I think what my colleague is saying is that Dominic Sanders now remains as the ONLY Brawl member left. And he’s in there with five Prime superstars, four FSW superstars, and four Rampage superstars.

Hanks: AND he’s busted open and being looked at by referee Paul Turner from Brawl.

Mystery Man: Still think Brawl has this in the bag, FBI?

FBI: …

Mystery Man: I’ll take that as a ‘no.’

Sebastian Conner is up and grabs Roberts, laying her out with a spinebuster. Romono is up on the top turnbuckle. He leaps at Conner, who ducks a flying crossbody attempt from Romono. Conner walks over to Romono and puts him in a sleeperhold. Roberts slowly crawls towards the FSW corner. Paul Turner gives Forbes the thumbs up, indicating that Dominic Sanders is okay. Sanders still lays on the outside grabbing his forehead.


“ONE!”


Forbes begins to count Dominic Sanders out since he’s been given the go-ahead.

Mystery Man: And now Brawl is officially in danger of being completely eliminated!

FBI: Come on, Sanders. Don’t lose this for me!

Hanks: What, do you have a bet?

FBI: No. But I have a prediction! I don’t like to be wrong!

Melody Malone reaches out her hand for Sarah Roberts. Before Roberts can tag her, Xavier Reid reaches down and smacks Roberts’ back.

Hanks: Well, I guess Xavier Reid was ready to get back in.

Mystery Man: When it’s convenient for him.

FBI: He’s the true leader of that team. He wants to be in there!

Reid runs in and drives a knee to Conner’s back, breaking up the sleeperhold. Romono crawls over to his corner and slaps Stitches on the shoulder hard, tagging him in. Stitches stares at Romono and steps through the ropes. They stand nose-to-nose with each other now, both with fire in their eyes.

Mystery Man: Guys. Prime looks ready to implode, here!

Candy gets into the ring and steps between the two of them. Killjoy stands on the apron reaching over and trying to hold Romono back. El Pablo does the same to Stitches. As the five members of Prime work things out, Reid is working on the lower back of Sebastian Conner.


“SIX!”

Forbes’ count is at six for Dominic Sanders, who has pulls himself up to his knees. He rests his bleeding forehead on the ring apron of the empty Brawl corner, trying to pull himself together. Xavier Reid sprints to the ropes and leaps up, looking to nail Conner with the X-Ecution! Conner catches Reid and powerbombs him hard to the mat. He covers. Rampage referee John Dean slips into the ring.

Kickout by Xavier Reid.

Hanks: I will say one thing. Right now the best team in the ring isn’t from Brawl, Rampage, FSW, or Prime. It’s these officials. They are right on top of the action and helping each other out when necessary.

Mystery Man: You do bring up a good point.

FBI: First for everything, Hanks.

“EIGHT!”

Sanders has both feet in the ground now on the outside of the ring. He grabs ahold of the middle rope and slowly begins to pull himself up onto the apron.



“NINE!”

Sanders gets up and rolls under the bottom rope into the ring.

Mystery Man: Brawl is still in this… for the moment.

Hanks: But it doesn’t look good for him.

Conner picks Reid up to his feet and kicks Reid in the midsection. Conner hooks him up. The Prime team has restored order and Stitches runs over and kicks Sanders in the face. Conner lifts Reid up and hangs him in the air. He brings him down hard with Honorable Deeds! He stays on for the cover and Forbes hits the deck.

3!

Dobrev: Xavier Reid has been eliminated!



Mystery Man: And there goes another for Team FSW! The two ‘favorites’ according to many, Robina Hood and Xavier Reid, are gone!

Hanks: This match has been pretty much all Team Rampage and Team Prime!

Robbie Rayder steps through the ropes and delivers a running hurricanrana to Sebastian Conner, sending him bouncing towards the Rampage corner. Magdalena Lockheart reaches over and tags herself in. She and Rayder meet in the middle of the ring and lock up. Stitches, meanwhile has Dominic Sanders in a Boston Crab!

Hanks: This could be it! If Sanders taps out, Team Brawl is completely eliminated!

FBI: Not happening! No way!

Rayder spins Lockheart around and delivers a belly-to-back suplex to The Future! Sanders is beginning to fade. The referee grabs Sanders’ wrist and lifts it up.







1!

The arm drops once!

Hanks: We saw Sarah Roberts put Dominic’s teammate out in the same manner. There is no quit in these Brawl guys, but they have had a bad night, tonight!







2!

The crowd goes nuts as Sanders is about to be eliminated. Forbes grabs Sanders by the wrist once more and drops it. Just before hitting the mat, Sanders lifts it back up into the air!

FBI: He’s still in it! He’s still in it!

Hanks: So close! We almost saw the end of Monday Night Brawl at StableWars!

As Robbie Rayder works on Lockheart in the FSW corner, Sanders slowly starts pushing his palms into the ground to attempt to break Stitches’ hold. He pushes up and off of the ground… he uses his leg strength and flips Stitches over, sitting on top in a pinning attempt!










1

Stitches kicks out and the hold is broken!

Hanks: Where did Dominic Sanders find the strength to do that?!

FBI: Because he is the man! He’s told everyone in this match that he will win. He said to bet on that and I did!

Hanks: I thought you said…

FBI: Shut up, Hanks!

Sanders crawls over slowly to the empty Brawl corner, but Stitches is quickly up to his feet. He runs over and begins stomping Sanders in the chest. Lockheart fights her way out of the corner and nails Rayder with a spinning heel kick. The two lay in the ring for a moment before both are able to get to their feet. Lockheart goes for a roundhouse kick, but Rayder ducks it. Rayder fires back and begins hitting Lockheart with kicks, completing the Shock & Awe with the sick kick! He covers Lockheart.

Ace King onces again saves his teammate!

Hanks: Ace King refuses to lose this match, or anymore teammates!

FBI: And now that his fiancee is gone, he’s got to step it up.

Rayder gets to his feet and walks over to the FSW corner. He climbs up the tuckbuckles and turns around. He waits for Lockheart to get to her feet. She turns around and is nailed by Aire Rayder V.2! Robbie goes for the cover.

Ace King back into the ring, but so is Sarah Roberts.

Roberts leaps over the pin attempt and drives an elbow into King’s chest, knocking him back into the Rampage corner.




3!

Dobrev: Magdalena Lockheart has been eliminated!



Mystery Man: And there’s another gone for Rampage!

Roberts exits the ring and Rayder sprints at Ace King in the Rampage corner and drives his shoulder into King’s stomach.

Hanks: And for those who have been tracking this, there have been three people who have not yet officially been in this match. El Pablo, Georgie Nickles, and Melody Malone.

Mystery Man: We’ve seen some wild action.

FBI: We have. And those three are smart! If you aren’t tagged in, you can’t be eliminated!

Hanks: And Stitches is still pummeling Dominic Sanders. Sanders is in bad shape, guys.

Sanders lays on the mat as Stitches has his foot across Sanders’ throat. The referee counts to four as Stitches gets off of him with a sadistic smile. Robbie Rayder is driving knees into Ace King’s ribcage in the center of the ring now. He lifts King up and drives him down with a gutwrench powerbomb! Suddenly, Stitches runs over at Rayder and nails him with the Lethal Lariat! He pulls Rayder off of the mat and puts him back down with the Sound of Silence! The Television Champion covers!

3!

Dobrev: Robbie Rayder has been eliminated!



Mystery Man: FSW is down to two, Sarah Roberts and Melody Malone!

Hanks: And don’t forget about Dominic Sanders. He’s all by himself on Brawl!

FBI: Looks like everyone has forgotten about him.

Sanders sits in the empty Brawl corner watching as Sarah Roberts sprints into the ring attacking Stitches. She and Ace King are on their feet as the Television Champion is on his hands and knees taking the blows. Roberts turns to King and delivers an elbow under his chin. He fires back with a kick to the stomach and then a High Roller! He covers Roberts.

Malone is into the ring and breaks up the count! Malone stays in and drives a knee into the side of King’s head. Robbie Rayder and Magdalena Lockheart have caused a stir at ringside. Lockheart gets in Rayder’s face. This draws the attention of Turner, Mercer, and Dean. Stitches crawls over and tags Killjoy Ito into the match. Ito runs in and picks Roberts up off of the ground. Forbes has Melody Malone backed into the corner trying to get her out of the ring. Ace King is slowly up to his feet and stands behind Forbes, pointing to the ring apron at Melody Malone. Stitches is still in the ring, though, and he comes up behind Ace King and nails him with a vicious low blow!

FBI: Ooooh! Shelley won’t like that!

Hanks: That one stings to watch.

King drops to the mat like a sack of potatoes as Stitches walks over and exits the ring in the Prime corner. The referees are able to get Lockheart and Rayder to leave. Malone finally gets back onto the ring apron, as well. Ito positions Roberts and nails her with the last ride powerbomb and into the sit-down powerbomb for good measure.

The Deerfield Destroyer kicks out!

Mystery Man: I don’t know where that kickout came from. Sarah Roberts dug deep for that one.

Hanks: She’s got a lot of hard and guts, guys.

FBI: Not much for brains or looks, though.

Hanks: That’s not very nice.

Ito stands back in the Prime corner and waits for Roberts to get to her knees. As she does, Ito sprints at her and nails her with Kettei-da! He covers Sarah Roberts.











1











2











3!

Dobrev: Sarah Roberts has been eliminated!



FBI: And it’s down to Melody Malone. I told you FSW had no chance!

Hanks: It certainly looks bleak for FSW and for Brawl. Both teams are down to one member while Rampage has three and Prime… well, Prime is still fully functional!

Mystery Man: You’ve got to give it to Prime. They’re putting on one hell of a showing after the type of year they’ve had!

Malone steps through the ropes, not backing down. She runs at Ito and jumps up onto his shoulders, driving him down with a DDT! She covers Ito.

Kickout.

As she gets off of Ito, Dominic Sanders is up to his feet. He grabs Malone by the hair and throws her right into Ace King, who is just starting to get up from the low blow from Stitches. King takes the brunt of the blow and it knocks him backwards towards Rampage’s corner. Georgie Nickles slaps King on the chest and tags herself in for the first time in the match! Nickles hops up onto the top turnbuckle and lays Dominic Sanders out with a missile dropkick! She runs over to Melody Malone and dropkicks her in the back of the head. Malone slumps in the corner and Nickles sets her up on the top turnbuckle. Meanwhile, Killjoy Ito reaches up and makes the tag to El Pablo! El Pablo sees Sanders getting up off of the ground and springboards off of the top rope, nailing Sanders in the back of the head with the Furry Ninja Strike! Sanders falls forward and stumbles through the ropes and to the floor.

Mystery Man: El Pablo and Georgie Nickles came in hot!

Hanks: Well, they were the last two to get a piece of the action here tonight. They’re fresh!

Georgie Nickles climbs up on the turnbuckle behind Malone. She jumps up and delivers a reverse Frankensteiner! She rolls over into a cover.

Kickout by Malone!

El Pablo runs over and grabs Nickles by the head and delivers a bulldog to the Real Rebel Child! El Pablo goes over to the Prime corner and jumps up to the top turnbuckle. Unknowingly, Stitches smacks El Pablo’s foot. El Pablo leaps off and connects with the Rainbowlutions Per Minute, aka the R.P.M! He covers Nickles, but Forbes doesn’t count. He informs El Pablo that Stitches tagged himself in.

Mystery Man: El Pablo had no clue Stitches tagged himself in.

Hanks: Yeah, I don’t know why he did that. El Pablo had the fall in the bag.

El Pablo looks over at Stitches and shakes his head. Stitches stands in the corner and smirks as El Pablo reluctantly exits the ring. Stitches doesn’t take his eyes off of El Pablo.

Hanks: Prime, although intact, seems to be losing cohesion here tonight.

FBI: Have they ever been cohesive? Let’s be real, Hanks.

Nickles crawls over slowly and tags her captain into the ring! Ace King enters and grabs Stitches from behind, nailing him with the Blackjack Bomb! He covers!

3!

Dobrev: Stitches has been eliminated!



Mystery Man: The first member of Prime is gone, but you can’t say he didn’t have it coming to him.

Hanks: He stole El Pablo’s thunder and paid for it.

FBI: Paid for it? He tagged himself in. Since when can you not do that?!

El Pablo jumps back into the ring and looks at Ace King.

Mystery Man: Now, these two are the best of friends. Will we see them go at it?

Hanks: You know they’re not afraid to.

Melody Malone is to her feet. She looks at Ace King and El Pablo, who appear to be willing to work together. She stands alone as the only FSW member left in the fight. Dominic Sanders has rolled back into the ring. He looks over at Ace and El Pablo, then at Melody Malone. Sanders slowly walks over to Melody Malone, dried blood caked on his face. He says something to her, which incites a nod from the young lady from Omaha. Malone and Sanders then sprint across the ring and start duking it out with El Pablo and Ace King! The crowd goes nuts!

Hanks: Look at this! The two survivors from Brawl and FSW are working together!

FBI: Smart. Very smart. Because they know they can’t go the distance by themselves. So they band together to take the rest out! Now they have a legal tag team advantage since they’re both legal participants!

Mystery Man: I’d have to agree with you! Very good move on their part, as both of their teams have been eliminated.

Malone hits El Pablo with a forearm to the face. Sanders nails King with a short-arm clothesline. El Pablo fires back with a punch of his own. King keeps ahold of Sanders’ arm and yanks him down to the mat, locking Sanders in the 21!

Hanks: Ace King has it locked in! Sanders is locked into the 21!

Sanders is fighting the hold, trying to get to his feet. He gets up to one knee and then to his second. He can’t get to his feet, but he puts all of his weight forward into King. King’s shoulders are on the mat!

King breaks the hold and rolls out of it.

Mystery Man: Dominic Sanders almost reversed the 21 into a pinfall!

King gets off of the mat and stomps Sanders in the back of the head. He reaches over and tags in Sebastian Conner.

Hanks: Here we go. Conner is about to get his payback for Dominic Sanders eliminating him from the Rumble in the Bronx!

FBI: Different day, same story! Sanders will put him down again!

Conner enters the ring and begins wailing on Sanders. Meanwhile, El Pablo delivers a snap suplex to Melody Malone, putting her on the mat. He lifts her back up and hooks both arms. He jumps into the air and delivers a double-arm DDT! He covers Malone.

She kicks out!

Sebastian Conner lifts Sanders up and drops him down with a spinebuster. He grabs ahold of Sanders’ legs and drops backwards, slingshotting Sanders into the empty Brawl corner. Sanders’ head smacks off of the ring post and the blood begins to pour again. He stumbles back into the center of the ring. Conner kicks Sanders in the gut and hooks him up.

Mystery Man: He’s going for the Honorable Deeds! He put Xavier Reid away earlier with this maneuver!

El Pablo runs over towards Conner… TASTE THE RAINBOW! He covers Conner…

Dobrev: Sebastian Conner has been eliminated!



Hanks: Wow! That came out of nowhere!

Mystery Man: And we are down to eight! Dominic Sanders for Brawl... Melody Malone for FSW... Ace King and Georgie Nickles for Rampage... and Candy, Frankie Romono, Killjoy Ito, and El Pablo for Prime! Prime is dominating this match!

Georgie Nickles steps through the ropes and runs straight for Dominic Sanders. She dropkicks him in the back of the head as he tries to get up to his feet. She gets up quickly and stomps on the back of his knee. She pulls Sanders up to his feet and drives him down with a body slam. Nickles goes over to the corner and climbs up to the top. She leaps off, looking to hit the Revolutionary Revolution! Sanders gets the knees up and drives them right into her stomach! He rolls over on top for the cover.

Ace King breaks it up!

El Pablo has Melody Malone in The Tijuana Crabcake, but she won’t submit. Frankie Romono and Killjoy Ito run into the ring and take a run at Ace King. They shove him into the corner and start to double him up with kicks to the midsection. All hell is breaking loose. Georgie Nickles is up to her feet and runs and drives a knee to the lower back of Frankie Romono. Dominic Sanders is up to his feet. He turns and looks across the ring, right into the eyes of… Candy!

FBI: HEEEEERE WE GO!

Hanks: I’ve been waiting for this.

Mystery Man: These two will square off at WrestleFest for the EWC Undisputed Championship, but we may not need to wait until then!

Candy steps towards the center of the ring. Dominic does likewise. The crowd is on their feet! Sanders has a few choice words for Candy, who just cocks her head and smirks at him. Just before they are about to come to blows, El Pablo releases The Tijuana Crabcake and sprints at Sanders, nailing him with The Facepainter! Skittles spread throughout the ring. All four referees are in and trying to bring it back to order. They’re able to get Killjoy and Romono back into their corner. Candy slowly exits the ring. Ace King has been ushered out. The legal participants are Dominic Sanders, Melody Malone, Georgie Nickles, and El Pablo. Nickles grabs Sanders from behind and pins his arms back. El Pablo loads his palm back up with more Skittles. He swings, looking for a second Facepainter! Sanders ducks and El Pablo nails Nickles instead! Sanders delivers a big boot to El Pablo’s face. This spins him around, right into Melody Malone. She lifts him up and drives him down hard with Nightmare Fuel! She covers El Pablo.

Dobrev: Killjoy Ito has been eliminated!



Mystery Man: And in a matter of moments Prime is down to two!

Hanks: El Pablo and Killjoy Ito were eliminated faster than anything I can remember.

FBI: How about faster than the Brits were eliminated from the Third Anglo-Afghan War?

Hanks: First of all, leave these people alone. And second of all, what?

FBI: Oh, I’m not allowed to be intellectual? Just go eat your Lunchable, Hanks!

Candy steps through the ropes to join the action. She goes right for Dominic Sanders, finally giving the fans the match-up they’ve waited on. She backs Sanders up into the corner and grabs him by the wrist. She Irish-whips Sanders across the ring and follows him up with a hard clothesline in the corner. Melody Malone has taken a moment to catch her breath in the corner. Nickles has recovered and walks over to her corner to tag in Ace King. King steps through the ropes and goes over to Malone. Candy leaps up and drives both feet into Sanders’ stomach, leans back, and executes a monkey flip. She steps through the ropes to the outside and begins to climb the turnbuckles. King lifts Malone up into a hanging vertical suplex. Candy leaps off of the top rope looking for the Sugar High on Sanders! Sanders rolls out of the way. King finishes the suplex. Candy hits the move on Malone! In disbelief, she sits up off of Malone and puts both hands over her mouth.

FBI: She can’t believe how lucky she got not to whiff completely! You want to know who the luckiest person in 2018 was? Candy.

Hanks: I don’t call it all luck, FBI.

FBI: No. It’s all luck. There’s no reason someone like her should be holding two championships AND get THAT lucky!

Realizing what has happened, Candy finally covers Malone.

THR-Kickout!

Mystery Man: Candy took way too much time! Melody Malone was able to kick out!

Sanders gets up off of the mat and is trading right hooks with Ace King. Candy picks Malone up off of the mat and tags Frankie Romono in. Romono steps into the ring and delivers a twisting spinebuster to Malone. He reaches back over and delivers a tag to Candy.

Hanks: Quick tags by Candy and Romono. I must say, these two are working together fairly well.

FBI: Until Frankie turns on her and steals the Indy Championship! HA!

Candy is back into the ring. She sees Dominic Sanders stomping on King in the corner. She runs behind him, jumps on his back and puts him in a sleeper hold! Sanders backs up into the middle of the ring with the lighter competitor on his back. He runs and goes to splash King in the corner with the added weight of Candy. King ducks out of the way and Sanders hits turnbuckle. Candy drops off of Sanders and turns right into a High Roller attempt by Ace King! Candy blocks the attempt. She grabs King by the head and runs towards the corner. She runs up Sanders’ back in the corner and connects with the Candy Crusher! She rolls on top of King.

Dobrev: Ace King has been eliminated!



Mystery Man: Rampage is down to one, and it’s not the captain!

Hanks: Candy just put Ace King out of this match. Unbelievable!

Candy gets up off of King and to her feet. She starts walking towards Melody Malone, but Dominic Sanders runs up behind her and rolls her up!

Sanders has a handful of Candy’s tights!

Dobrev: Candy has been eliminated!



Mystery Man: Dominic Sanders just pinned the champ, although he had the tights!

Hanks: How is he even still in this thing? He’s been the only Brawl member for like thirty minutes!

FBI: Because he’s the best. I told you once before and I’ll tell you again. He’s winning this match just like he did at Rumble in the Bronx. Then he’s going to beat Candy at WrestleFest just like he did moments ago!

Candy is in disbelief. Sanders backs away into the corner on his butt while smirking at the Champ. Candy locks eyes with Sanders and is very upset. Frankie Romono sprints into the ring and drives a knee right into the face of Dominic Sanders. Georgie Nickles, the only remaining Rampage superstar, is in the ring. She whips Malone around and drives her down with a DDT. She walks over to the corner and leaps up to the top turnbuckle. She jumps off of the top and connects with a moonsault to Malone. She stays on for the cover.

Kickout by Malone.

Hanks: How many times has Melody Malone kicked out of a move tonight?

Mystery Man: I don’t know, but she’s one tough cookie and she’s showing the heart of FSW here tonight!

Nickles drags Malone to her feet. She Irish-whips Malone to the ropes. She ducks down for a back-body drop, but Malone kicks her in the face. Malone kicks Nickles in the stomach, but Nickles catches her foot. Enziguri by Malone! Malone grabs Nickles off of the mat and pulls her to her feet. She rests Nickles’ chin on her own shoulder and flips up and over, nailing her with Requiem! No! Nickles reverses it into an atomic drop, driving her knee into Malone’s tailbone! Nickles kicks Malone in the back of the knee, dropping her down to said knee. Nickles bounces off of the ropes and sprints at Malone… SHINING ANARCHY! Nickles covers Malone.

Dobrev: Melody Malone has been eliminated!



Hanks: FSW is the first team done here tonight!

Mystery Man: Just when you thought it might be Brawl! They had four people eliminated in the first six!

Romono has spent the last few moments working on the left shoulder of Sanders with a version of a Fujiwara armbar. Sanders refuses to quit, so Romono changes course. Frankie Romono lifts Sanders up for a suplex and drives him down. Nickles walks over and she and Romono grab Sanders and lift him up off of the mat. Romono picks Sanders up and sets him up on the top turnbuckle. Romono and Nickles start to climb the turnbuckle until they both reach the top. They hook Sanders up and double-superplex Sanders to the canvas. Romono goes over to Sanders’ right leg and Nickles grabs ahold of his left leg.

Mystery Man: Make a wish!

FBI: I wish they wouldn’t do this!

WISHBONE! Sanders rolls around the ring in pain.

Hanks: Georgie Nickles and Frankie Romono are doing a great job working together on Dominic Sanders.

FBI: It’s not fair. Whatever happened to Prime vs Brawl vs Rampage?

Mystery Man: Well, to be honest, not many people like Dominic Sanders these days. I can imagine they’re doing it out of disdain for Sanders.

Nickles lifts Sanders up and shoves him into the corner. She drives a knee into his stomach before Irish-whipping him towards Frankie Romono, who lifts Sanders up and delivers a Sicilian Drop. He covers Sanders.

Kickout by Sanders.

Hanks: Sanders is still in it!

FBI: Damn right he is!

Mystery Man: He’s definitely in the worst shape right now. He’s been busted open. And he’s been alone for who knows how long.

Romono pulls Sanders off of the ground and shoves him into Nickles, who kicks him in the gut and bounces off of the ropes. She comes back and nails Sanders with the Ego Breaker! She cov… no! Romono grabs Nickles. ROMONOBOMB!

KICKOUT!

FBI: Took too much time. This match is all but over.

Hanks: With Romono winning, right? Sanders is in bad, bad shape. And Romono doesn’t have to watch his back. There’s nobody else left!

FBI: No. Dominic Sanders is pulling this one out. I promise you!

Mystery Man: That remains to be seen.

Romono grabs Sanders and Irish-whips him hard into the corner. Sanders collapses forward onto his face. Romono pulls Sanders out to the center of the ring and locks him into the Sicilian Stretch!

Mystery Man: There’s nowhere to go for Sanders!

Hanks: Sanders is going to tap out!

FBI: Not a chance!

Referee Niklaus Forbes gets down to Sanders’ level.

Forbes: Dominic.. do you give up?

Sanders: HELL NO!

Romono: Yous betta quit now ‘fore I break yous arms!

Romono cinches the hold in tighter! Sanders screams in pain, but shakes his head “no.” He reaches back with his foot, trying to get to the rope. But he’s an inch away. Sanders is squirming, continously telling the referee “no.” Sanders reaches back again, tapping the rope with his toe. Romono sees this and breaks the hold, pulling Sanders back to the center of the ring. Romono then proceeds to lock in the Sicilian Stretch again! Sanders is screaming in pain as he refuses to quit.

Mystery Man: When does enough become enough?!

FBI: When Sanders quits, and that ain’t happenin’!

Sanders drives his left foot into the ground and pushes off, rolling Romono on his back.

Kickout by Romono!

FBI: That’s THREE TIMES, now. Three times that Sanders has been able to escape a submission move with a pinfall attempt. You still doubting me?

Hanks: Until it’s over, I won’t say a word. Frankie Romono is much fresher than Dominic Sanders right now.

Romono gets up off of the mat and stomps on the forehead of the busted open Dominic Sanders. Bleeding had slowed down prior to that stomp, but it’s flowing again now.

Hanks: I just don’t know how much more he can take or how much longer this can go on. Dominic Sanders has lost an insane amount of blood!

Sanders slowly gets to his hands and knees, but Romono kicks him in the ribs, knocking him back down onto his back. Sanders rolls out of the ring and to the floor outside. The referee begins his count as Romono chases after. Sanders is backing up towards the steel steps on his butt as Romono stalks him. Romono gets in close to grab Sanders, but Sanders grabs Romono by the front of the tights and pulls him face-first into the steel corner ring post. Romono’s cheek bounces off with a thud. Sanders gets up off of the ground and hears that the count is at four. He slides under the bottom rope and then back out of the ring to break the count. Sanders grabs Romono by the neck and walks him over to the announcers’ table. He smacks Romono’s face off of the table. The referees come over to issue a warning to Sanders. Sanders puts his hands up in the air and grabs Romono, rolling him back into the ring. Sanders climbs up onto the ring apron and starts climbing to the top.

Hanks: He’s going for Titletown!

Romono is on his feet. Sanders leaps off. Romono catches him mid-air and turns it into a powerbomb! He covers Sanders.

Kickout by Sanders!

Romono can’t believe it. He lays on his back in the middle of the ring with both hands on top of his head. Sanders lays nearly motionless on the mat. Romono, frustrated, rolls over and covers Sanders again, this time hooking a leg.

Kickout again by Sanders!

Hanks: Frankie Romono cannot figure out what to do to put Dominic Sanders away!

FBI: And he’s not going to!

Romono gets up off of the mat and signals for the end, to the crowd’s delight. Romono grabs Sanders by the bloody hair and pulls him slowly up to his feet. He looks Sanders in the eyes and says something to him. He shoves Sanders’ head down and goes for the RomonoBomb! He lifts Sanders up… Sanders sunset-flips Romono! Instead of staying in the pin, Sanders gets up to his feet. TEXAS BLUEBONNET!

Hanks: He’s got Romono locked into the Texas Bluebonnet dead in the middle of the ring!

FBI: He tapped! I saw it!

Mystery Man: He did not!

Romono slowly tries to claw his way towards the ropes. Sanders is exhausted and weakened from the blood loss, so he has trouble keeping Romono in the center of the ring. Romono reaches out and grabs the bottom rope. Sanders releases the hold and sits on one knee for a moment, catching his breath. Romono slowly gets up to his knees. The two look at each other. Both men get up to their feet, Romono with a slight hobble. They stare each other in the eyes, both mouthing off to the other. Romono strikes first with a right haymaker. Sanders reciprocates. Then Romono. Then Sanders. They go back and forth until Romono gains the upper hand. He Irish-whips Sanders into the ropes. Sanders goes for a clothesline. Romono ducks and bounces off of the ropes himself. He returns and both go for a crossbody, meeting in mid-air and collapsing to the mat.

Hanks: Both men are down! What a match!

Mystery Man: These fans seem to think so. They’re at it again.

THIS IS AWESOME!
THIS IS AWESOME!
THIS IS AWESOME!
THIS IS AWESOME!

FBI: Come on Sanders! Get up! Put him away!

Romono is the first to his feet. Sanders is up to a knee. He drives a forearm into Romono’s stomach. And another. Romono drives an elbow into the top of Sanders’ head. He lifts Sanders up and puts him in the tree of woe in the corner. Romono backs up into the opposite corner. He sprints at Sanders… BASEBALL SLIDE!

Mystery Man: My God! Romono just nailed Sanders right in the face with that baseball slide!

Hanks: I really don’t know how much more Sanders can take!

Romono gets up to his feet and unties Sanders from the tree of woe. Romono covers Sanders.

THR-NO! Referee Niklaus Forbes sees that one of Dominic’s legs is under the bottom rope!

Mystery Man: Lucky break for Dominic Sanders, if he even knows it!

Hanks: I’m not sure that he does!

A frustrated Romono grabs Sanders by the arm. He drags him to the center of the ring and covers him again.

Kickout by Sanders!

Romono slaps the canvas hard in frustration. He gets up to his feet. He pulls his knee pad down over his shin and slaps his knee. He pulls Sanders up to his feet, who looks out of it.

Hanks: Looks like Romono is going to end it with the Running High Knee!

Romono bounces off the ropes. When he returns, he notices that Sanders just falls to the ground.

Mystery Man: The referee might need to call this one. If Sanders takes one more hit he may be out for awhile. He looks absolutely done.

FBI: No way! Come on Sanders!

Romono grabs ahold of Sanders’ head and pulls him up to his feet. He slaps Sanders across the face as he yells at him.

Romono: Yous stay up!

Romono lets go of a reeling Sanders. He runs and bounces off of the ropes again but, again, Sanders drops to a knee. Romono walks back over to Sanders.

Romono: I said! Yous s…

Sanders rolls Romono up into a small package!

DING DING DING

Dobrev: Here is your winning team… by way of Dominic Sanders being the sole survivor… Team Brawl!

Marshmello strikes up the ‘Thunderstruck’ and ‘Made in Hell’ mash-up once more. Romono sits there with his head in his hands. Sanders reaches up to the top rope with a large smile on his face and pulls himself up to his feet. Referee Paul Turner from Brawl slides into the ring and raises Sanders’ hand in victory. Unlike the reception he received two months ago after Rumble in the Bronx, the crowd in West Sussex is raining boos into the ring. Sanders just looks out over the crowd and laughs.

Mystery Man: I don’t believe it! Dominic Sanders has done it again!

Hanks: What a year for the EWC rookie, huh?

FBI: I told you guys! I told you!

Mystery Man: First, he outlasts thirty-nine others to win Rumble in the Bronx and now he’s the sole survivor in what might be the biggest StableWars match we’ve ever had.

Sanders walks over to the ropes where Nina Dobrev is standing. He reaches over the top rope and asks for a microphone. She grabs one, as well as a towel, and hands both objects to him. Sanders dabs at the blood on his face for a moment with the towel before the music fades and Sanders stands with the microphone in his hand.

Sanders: When I said that I was going to win Rumble in the Bronx… you sons of bitches doubted me. Then what did I do? I went out and outlasted thirty-nine superstars, whether they’re bottom-feeders or champions, and I won that mother fucker!

The crowd boos at Sanders in the ring.

Sanders: And when I said that I was going to be the sole survivor and the brightest light left shining here at StableWars… you sons of bitches doubted me. Then what did I do? I went out and outlast nineteen of the absolute best that this company has to offer and I won this mother fucker!

Again, more boos… this time possibly louder than the first.

Sanders: So, listen up and listen good… because Mr. Pay-Per-View isn’t going to tell you guys again. I WILL walk into WrestleFest as the challenger for the EWC Undisputed Champion… and, when I walk out, I am walking out with that title strapped around my waist… you can bet on that!

Sanders drops the microphone. ‘I Want Candy’ by Aaron Carter begins blasting throughout the Butlins Bognor Regis. The crowd erupts as the EWC Undisputed and Indy Champion, Candy, emerges from the back. She walks out and stands at the top of the ramp. She looks into the ring at Dominic Sanders and the two lock eyes. She holds the EWC Undisputed Championship high into the air as Sanders smirks at her.

Mystery Man: What a night it has been here in West Sussex! These two are on course to collide on December 17th at WrestleFest!

Hanks: What a night that will be!

FBI: Sanders is the next Champ! You heard it here!

Mystery Man: We will find out in four weeks! For all of us here at the Extreme Wrestling Corporation, we thank you West Sussex! We thank you EWC Universe! And the three of us will see you December 17th! Goodnight, everybody!

The camera focuses on Candy holding up the Undisputed Championship at the top of the ramp as it fades to black.
