The opening pyros hit and here we go.
The energy in Barcelona is breathtaking as the crowd is absolutely electrifying in their uproar of cheers.

The camera then pans back out showing a full-scale view of the jam-packed stadium 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.

Outside of Camp Nou, Faith Rivers is seen standing among her Faithful Army as she signs some autographs. She continues to mingle with her until she notices the camera coming around. After another moment, Faith turns her attention to it with a smile.
Faith: It’s the most wonderful time of the yyeeaarrrrr…
Her smile quickly fades and she makes a face.
Faith: Alright, alright. My voice isn’t that great. So it’s a good thing I plan on sticking to my day job.
She nods as everyone around her chuckles.
Faith: I hope Melody and Cletus are ready for what’s about to come their way. I know they think they are, but I’m not so sure. They’re counting me of this fight as it is. Well, that’s about to come back to bite them in the behind. Because this is my first WrestleFest experience and I plan on making it a very Faithful one.
Her smile is back.
Faith: We are only minutes away from when I march into Camp Nou with the rest of my Faithful Army and make that FSW Contendership mine! Be seeing you both very soon.
Faith winks and turns away from the camera to sign more autographs as the feed heads back to Mystery Man, FBI and Colin Hanks.
Mystery Man: Well that was Faith Rivers we just heard from and she seems pretty confident and focused on her upcoming Triple Threat ..
FBI: It's going to be an interesting match to say the least .. Rivers, Malone and Franklin .. you don't know what in the holy [censored for free-view/preview] is going to happen in this match .. especially with someone like Cletus who is a unknown factor in this [censored for free-view/preview] triple threat
Hanks: It looks like we have some more action backstage .. lets head back and see what Nevaeh who will be battling it out with 20 others in the Battle Royal later tonight in the Free-view / Preview portion of WrestleFest XVI
As Nevaeh steps out in front of the camera, she is already dressed in her ring attire and has Heaven’s Helper propped up against her shoulder.
Nevaeh: As promised, I’m dressed and ready to do some damage.
Nev looks a little dangerous as she smirks at the camera.
Nevaeh: Stop me if you can. But I wouldn’t get my hopes up on that if I were you. Otherwise, you are all going to be seriously disappointed once I win this Battle Royal.
With that, Nev walks off looking as confident as ever.
PRE-SHOW / FREE SHOW FSW MATCH
WINNER BECOMES #1 CONTENDER TO FSW CHAMPIONSHIP
Faith Rivers
Vs Melody Malone
Vs Cletus Franklin
Mystery Man: There you have it folks .. Nevaeh is ready .. I know that everyone here is super excited and ready to get the action started tonight, so we’re going to kick off our Wrestlefest Pre-show with an FSW triple-threat match with a huge opportunity on the line.
Hanks: That’s right Mystery Man, because the winner of this match will become the new number one contender for the FSW Championship.
FBI: Even though they are our developmental brand, there’s always a lot of drama and excitement surrounding Future Stars. By the end of tonight 2019 could look a lot differently for them.
Hanks: Well, you have former FSW Champion Cletus Franklin soon to compete against The Leader of the Faithful Army Faith Rivers and a very hungry and determined Melody Malone.
Mystery Man: Not only that but the winner will face either FSW Champion Robina Hood or possibly Robbie Rayder if he happens to defeat Robina later on tonight in the big show.
Due to the time constraints of such a packed show, the Malone, Ribers, and Franklin are already in the ring, having performed their entrances moments ago while fans still file into their seats. The referee gets the signal from the producers to start the match, so he steps out of their way and calls for the opening bell.
DING DING DING
The match starts with all three competitors trading blows until Melody Malone backs out to allow Cletus Franklin and Faith Rivers to beat on each other. Franklin uses his size and strength to get the early advantage over Rivers, but she fights back with technique and speed. Rivers ducks a Franklin lariat and downs the Messiah of Dilligaf with a Side Russian Leg Sweep. Yet the moment she slides over Franklin for the cover she is stomped in the back of the head by Malone.
Hanks: Oh what a cheap shot there by Melody Malone!
FBI: I’ve been working with you long enough to realize that you honestly believe that saving the match for yourself is in any way cheap. If you ask me Melody Malone has been fighting smartly this entire contest so far.
Hanks: She’s barely fought at all!
FBI: Exactly.
Malone pulls Rivers up to her feet and tries to hit her with a Nightmare Fuel DDT but Rivers counters with a Northern Lights Suplex that only gets two after the bridge. By the time Rivers is back to her feet she is leveled by Franklin with a Smokey Dreams knee strike. Franklin only gets two on the pin when Melody Malone once again breaks it up, this time with a top rope legdrop. Malone cracks Franklin with an Armageddon Clock and goes for a cover, but her pin attempt is broken up by Rivers who yanks her off of Franklin by her feet. Rivers pulls Malone right into The River’s Current, and spins her around so that she smacks headfirst into Cletus Franklin’s skull as he tries to get up. The crowd applauds the innovative offense, but as Rivers pins Franklin she only gets a two.
Mystery Man: Faith almost picked up a big win there, not only for herself, but for the Faithful Army.
FBI: If she would worry more about herself and less about her fan following, she could go places. She needs to be more like Melody Malone, who wants her name to be known at all costs. Or Cletus Franklin who has adopted the teachings of the book of dilligaf.
Hanks: There’s nothing wrong with using the fans as a motivating factor. At the end of the day its whatever it takes to make sure that you are the one standing tall above everyone else, and for each future star that could be different.
Mystery Man: Right now it’s going to be whoever has the best opportunity to score a win. These triple threat matches can always end in ways that nobody expects.
Rivers is the first back to her feet and she charges at Malone but Malone pulls the top rope down and Faith spills to the outside. Malone pulls Cletus Franklin up to his feet looking for the Nightmare Fuel DDT but Franklin spins out of it and looks to hit Malone with the Corrosion instead, but she impressively counters with the Nightmare Fuel DDT. Malone goes for the cover but Rivers flies off of the top with a big moonsault, connecting just before the three. Except Malone had the wherewithal to move out of the way, and Rivers only catches Franklin with the move. Malone grabs Rivers by her hair and tosses her out of the ring. She then slides over to Franklin for the cover and hooks the leg and picks up the three.
DING DING DING
Dobrev: The winner of this match via pinfall, Melody Malone!
Hanks: Wow, what a huge win by Melody Malone, getting one step closer to making her name well-known in FSW. She now has a date with either Robbie Rayder or Robina Hood in her future, which is starting to look a lot brighter now.
FBI: It’s a huge win for her, yes. But what I’m more impressed with is how she manipulated the match and her opponents to work in her favor. Even though Faith Rivers and Cletus Franklin showed that they were just as capable of winning this match here tonight through their efforts, it was Malone who picked her spots and picked up the win for herself.
Hanks: I’ll agree. All three really wanted to win this match tonight and proved it through their effort. They all deserve a round of applause.
Mystery Man: Which they are getting from these fans. FSW is looking bright if this is the kind of competition we can come to expect from them in 2019.
Melody Malone continues to celebrate as we move toward the next match in the WrestleFest Pre-show.
Cameras shift away from the ring to a backstage area where Ace Heart stands at the ready, a broad smile beaming from beneath his well-groomed mustache. Taking a couple seconds, Ace sweeps his fingers along the whiskery length before an off-screen cue has him zeroing in on the lens in front of him.
Ace Heart: Wow, what a match we just saw! It’s been an absolutely action packed WrestleFest, but who expected any less after the roller-coaster season that was 2018. The crowd is hot here in Barcelona, and things are just heating up! Before the next contest kicks off, I’d like to grab some feedback from some of our roster members, and with me now is recently resigned Rampage mainstay, Billy Mitch—”
Billy Mitchell: “They know who I am.”
The abrupt cut off causes the camera man to hesitate a bit before pulling back to reveal ‘The Outlaw’ standing beside Ace. Still in his street clothes, Mitchell stands with his arms folded tight across his chest, wearing a ragged trucker’s hat and a pair of tinted glasses. Yet to be tied, his hair hangs loose and long over his shoulders. A decent cheer ripples through the crowd at the sight of him, but burns out quickly.
Ace Heart: “Uh, yes, it sounds like they do. Ok, we’ll go ahead and skip the formalities, then. First off, Billy, let me congratulate you on the contract extension. It’s good to have you aboard for the coming season, and I’m sure we’ll see big things from you.”
Mitchell doesn’t respond. He simply continues to peer down at Ace through the shades, prompting some obvious discomfort from the seasoned journalist, who stumbles a bit as he continues.
Ace Heart: “Is there, maybe, anything specific we should be on the look out for?”
Though unseen, there’s a hint of rolling eyes from behind the dark lenses.
Billy Mitchell: “Oh, this is gonna’ be a crackerjack of a talk, Ace. Already with the hard hitting questions.”
Derision all but drips from Mitchell’s tone as he scoffs out a chuckle and shakes his head.
Billy Mitchell: “What you’ll see is a lot of dust and blood. What you’ll see is a six-foot five, two-hundred and fifty pound man who’s sick of bein’ kicked around. What you’ll see is a lot of broken bodies pilin’ up behind me. Starting right here tonight. I’m not gonna’ go on some rant ‘cause I’ve said my piece, and I meant what I said. But let me go ahead and add one thing – Billy Mitchell is a name everyone should start etchin’ into their mind. I don’t care if you’re Prime, FSW, Brawl or sittin’ in that Rampage locker room with me. Carve it into your skulls, because you’re gonna’ be hearin’ it A LOT come 2019!”
Ace Heart: “In any particular context, or just in general?”
The question earned Ace another unseen glare, followed by a cock of the head as Mitchell just stared at him, a smirk slowly twisting into place on his lips.
Billy Mitchell: “Really? That’s all you have to come back with? Fine. I’ll humor you. Yeah. In a couple of ‘particular’ contexts, Ace. Starting with the United States Championship hangin’ off my shoulder first chance I get. And what I mean by ‘first chance’ is just as soon as I find out who I’m takin’ it off of. Doesn’t matter if it’s Ace or Georgie. Whoever drags their sorry ass out of that ring with the belt tonight, I’ll be waiting.”
The statement sparks a divided response from the crowd, along with scattered chants for both ‘The Gambler’ and the ‘Rabble Rouser’. Faintly, one or two calls for Mitchell himself arise, but soon fade.
Ace Heart: “A lofty goal, Mr. Mitchell, given Ace King’s absolute dominance this past season. And one you’ve fallen short of before, since both he and Ms. Nickles currently hold wins over you as is. What makes you so certain the next time would be different?”
Billy Mitchell: “’cause I don’t fuckin’ give a shit anymore, Ace, that’s why.”
Unlike the televised shows, there’s no swift bleep to hide the venomous filth here.
Billy Mitchell: “I spent the last six months playin’ the hero. Playin’ the Lone Ranger on my white horse, and I’ve done nothin’ but eat shit for it. Week in. Week out. Time after time after goddamned time!”
Reaching up, Mitchell snatched the sunglasses away, revealing a burning smolder in his eyes as he stared hard into Ace’s face. As his speaks, his tone falls low, taking on a guttural rumble.
Billy Mitchell: “I said I was done. And you best believe I meant it, boy. Done taking the high road. Done haulin’ my ass up and shakin’ hands with whoever beat me down. I tried it, and it just ain’t my style. It ain’t how I was raised. Ain’t how I live my life. And these people know it.”
His free hand comes up, pointing a finger out into the unseen crowd, who respond with a small pop.
Billy Mitchell: “You walk out into that crowd, and you find me one, just one guy who has his jaw jacked, then stands up as says ‘thank you’. If you do, make sure he ain’t a fuckin’ Canuck, ‘cause they don’t count. I’m talkin’ someone real. Red blooded. Blue collared. Hell, I’ll spare you the goose chase, ‘cause they don’t exist! So why should they shell out their hard earned cash to come here and sit on some plastic chair surrounded by a bunch of basement-dwelling smart marks just to watch a guy like me swallow shit? They shouldn’t. And they won’t be. Not anymore. These people came here to see someone get the livin’ hell kicked out of ‘em, and I’m set to oblige on one hell of a damned scale.”
Another pop, larger this time, along with a few chants of Mitchell’s name – though an underlying chorus of jeers and boos echoes just beneath. Mitchell simply replaces the sunglasses and leans back out of Ace’s face. Heart offers a slow exhale of relief, before looking to regain control of the interview.
Ace Heart: “All that being said, well, um. In the past couple months, we’ve seen an influx of new talent signing with the EWC across all our brands, along with a couple guests looking to make an appearance at one of the rumored super shows this off season. You’ve already, I guess we’ll say ‘introduced yourself’ to a couple of them via our FighterTalk services, but, are there any words of wisdom or advice you’d like to pass on to anyone?”
Mitchell couldn’t stop the grin that split his face from ear to ear.
Billy Mitchell: “You talkin’ ‘bout old Reggie?”
A sardonic humor heightened ‘The Outlaw’s’ voice a bit at the jab to Reginald Dampshaw, as he adopted a cruelly bad British accent.
Billy Mitchell: “I’m just havin’ a bit of a piss with the old sod. Reggie can be a bit of a prig, but he knows he's a right proper chum, he is.”
Scattered laughter trickled through the crowd as Mitchell glanced to the camera, and peered into it over the top of the sunglasses – before slowly pushing them back up via his middle finger. All at once, the smile faded, and his expression melted back into the stone-carved scowl it had been before.
Billy Mitchell: “Tell ‘em all to either knuckle up or shut up. I been here less than a year, and I’ve already had my fill of flappin’ gums and waggin’ tongues. Either they stay out of my way, or I’ll shoot ‘em where they stand and wipe my damned boots off on the body. Think that’s a clear enough message for ‘em?”
Ace Heart: “I’m going to go with yes. That was pretty hard to misunderstand.”
Billy Mitchell: “Good. That mean we’re done? Or you still got a couple more cookie cutter questions shoved up your ass?”
Ace Heart: “Just one.”
Whether the response came from instinct or a lack of caring for Mitchell’s ill-temper, Ace managed to play it off with a straight enough face that even Billy couldn’t help but smile – at least for a split second.
Billy Mitchell: “Well, wipe it off and let’s have it, then.”
Ace Heart: “Being a part of WrestleFest is a special occasion. A chance to put the cap on a banner year, or make one last statement leading into the next season. Not everyone gets the chance to appear on the biggest card of them all – what does it mean to Billy Mitchell to be standing here right now?”
For once, Mitchell’s body language softened a bit, with his arms unfolding to fall at his sides. Leaning back out of Ace’s space, ‘The Outlaw’ took a second to think, reaching up to palm and stroke his beard.
Billy Mitchell: “Honestly? Makes me wish I’d pulled my head outta’ my ass sooner. Maybe I’d be the one standin’ in that ring watching Sanders come chicken-walkin’ down the ramp instead of Candy – no disrespect to the girl. She’s tough. She’s earned her spot. But I want it. And I aim to get it. The United States Championship is just somethin’ to cut my teeth on. Somethin’ to prove my point with. Like you said, Ace has been one of the most dominant forces in this business. He’s the only that’s walkin’ out of this year still holdin’ the belt he came in with. Assuming Georgie doesn’t have anythin’ to say about that, but we all know she will. Woman’s always got somethin’ to say. But as far as what I’m thinkin’ standin’ here? I’m thinkin’ Billy Mitchell is about to walk out into that ring, stand in the center and raise a middle finger to everyone who thinks they have what it takes to put me down. Tonight. Tomorrow. Whenever.”
Leaving it at that, Mitchell turned and walked out of the shot, leaving the camera to close back in on Ace who seems uncertain how to feel about the whole exchange. Eventually, he turns his attention back to the lens and brings up the mic.
Ace Heart: “Ladies and Gentlemen, that was Billy Mitchell. Rampage’s resident outlaw and, from what it seems, ready to ride into the new season with a full head of steam. Good luck to him out there tonight, and good luck in the 2019 season! Back to you, boys!”
Ace continues to smile into the camera as the feed cuts back to the main announce table at ringside.
PRE-SHOW / FREE SHOW SINGLES MATCH
Jeff Noon
Vs Shelley Silver
Mystery Man: That was Billy Mitchell ladies and gentlemen who of course will be competing a little later on in our Free-View Preview portion of WrestleFest XVI .. and now WrestleFest rolls on and if that amazing Triple Threat wasn’t enough to entice you to shell out your well earned bucks, we have ourselves a special attraction.
Hanks: The death of Jeff Noon.
FBI: Shelley Silver wishes. We are about to see the man behind the genius of Rob Garcia. Jeff Noon is gonna destroy Silver.
Hanks: Are you serious? Jeff Noon is a pudgy little man and Shelley Silver is 2-time US champ. There is no comparison here. And it's a street fight. Noon is going to regret the day he screwed her out of that Last Man Standing match.
Mystery Man: Rob Garcia has his shot for the X-Division gold, so it’s possible that Noon is going solo. We’ll just have to see what he can do.
But Mystery Man spoke too soon. Jeff Noon, dressed in Garcia’s hometown Kings hockey goalie’s uniform, is flanked by the ever dangerous tag team The Limit. Jeff slices through the air with his hockey stick like a sword. The Detroit City brawlers pay no mind to his antics. However, they’re chomping at the bit to beat some ass.
FBI: Like I said. Noon is going to destroy this broad.
Shelley Silver stepped onto the stage to a monstrous applause but she stopped short. She weighed her options. Three versus one. A beating of a lifetime most likely. Or perhaps she knew. An individual stepped out beside her. And then from all four corners of the barricade - five more. Seven women.
FBI: Who the hell are these idiots? SECURITY! Do your job.
Hanks: Oh my. Mac just opened the gate for guests to appear and well, these folks just blew the door off the hinges.
Mystery Man: Well, I recognize Shelley’s manager Sloane Cameron but …
A young Japanese woman with blonde hair - a steel eyed focus on the three people in the ring. She digs in the pocket of her leather jacket and produces a pair of brass knuckles and slips them on.
Hanks: That’s Angel Kusanagi. She’d fit right into this match. Jeff Noon does not want on her bad side. Although to be fair, I’m not sure if she has a good side.
A pale woman with long red hair. She is perched on the barricade as if she would leap off with no moment’s notice. Another brunette stands beside her, ready to fight.
Hanks: And Erin Mercer. I think our resident rock and roller Griffin Hawkins would like this woman. She calls herself the Red Queen of Rock and Roll! And that’s Alex Brody.
A young brunette. She shoots a look at Shelley that is one of respect.
Hanks: Adrianna Salvatore. The reigning and defending NFW Women’s champion. Shelley and her go way back.
The odds keep piling up against America’s Most Hated as a familiar blonde steps forward from her corner…
Hanks: Lara Blackhart! She’s Shelley’s tag team partner over in NFW. Maybe these two would give NSFW a run for their money!
And finally, a stunning Asian brunette has her eyes narrowed at her perspective victims …
Hanks: Mia Hayashi. Well this makes sense. Mia, Adrianna, and Angel are a crew together.
FBI: This is goddamned ridiculous! Who let all of these freaks in!
Mystery Man: The Limit are tough guys from this has effectively turned to 8 on 2. Dominic and Rob are off preparing for the biggest matches of their lives. And The Limit…
The Limit cut bait and haul off. They exit the ring and are immediately swarmed by everyone except Shelley Silver. The Limit get their shots in but Angel knocks DJ Frank over the barricade with a nasty right hand shot with the brass knuckles and Ethan is forced to join him. The NFW guests have ran off Jeff Noon’s help.
So now … as it should be - it’s Shelley Silver and Jeff Noon, protective pads or not, and the queen of Ace cracked her knuckles in anticipation.
DING DING DING
She snapped the stick over his back and then shoved him into the turnbuckle corner. From there, she tore off the helmet protecting his head.
Noon fell to his knees.
Noon: You wouldn’t punch a man wearing glasses!
Silver: The hell I won’t!
She hauled back but didn’t see that Noon pulled a puck out from his pants and slung it right into her pelvis. From there, Jeff Noon took his gloves off and did something amazing.
A wrestling move. He managed - somehow, someway to body slam Shelley Silver.
He did a victory lap right around the ring.
The celebration was cut off as Silver collided into with suicide dive and then systematically picked apart the manager to Rob Garcia. From there, it was elementary. Shelley beat Noon pillar to post and there was no one in sight to save him. There were moments where he fought valiantly. It could have been spasm from the impact of the headscissors DDT, but Noon kicked out of Shelley’s Silver Sunset.
The Barcelona crowd was shocked!
Shelley tried to put away Noon with the Sunset but in the fireman’s carry, Noon jabbed a thumb in her eye and fell behind her.
And rolled her up for a nearfall!
Noon ripped off his elbow pad and clocked Shelley with it. He set up in the corner … and went for a bastardized Lights Out for Harambe! Shelley sidestepped and immediately capitalized as Noon retreated to a corner.
Emphatically, Noon was put to rest with a Silver Bullet.
DING DING DING
Dobrev: The winner of this match via pinfall, Shelley Silver!
Hanks: I honestly didn’t expect Noon to last as long as he did. But Shelley Silver maybe has laid out a bad omen for America’s Most Hated. Jeff Noon was pinned just like that. Will we see the same happen to Garcia and Sanders?
FBI: Do you know how dumb you sound? Noon isn’t even a wrestler. Wow, what a great win for this headcase. And she had enlist a bunch of airheads to get it done.
Hanks: Not even going to argue with your dumb ass.
Mystery Man: Colin has a point. AMH starts out 0-1 tonight at WrestleFest.
All of Shelley’s friends join her back in the ring and they celebrate a hell of a victory as poor Jeff Noon is stretchered out. The camera fades to commercial as the crowd boos when Jeff gives a thumbs up to signal he’s okay.
Mystery Man: Next up, we have the huge Battle Royal! Stay tuned! For now .. we go backstage where Ace Heart is standing by ..
The camera cuts backstage as we see the EWC's own Ace Heart. Gabrielle Visconty walks into the scene and smiles warmly at Ace.
Ace Heart: I'm backstage with one of EWC's newest Superstars .. Gabrielle Visconty. First off, Gabrielle its nice to meet you.
Gabrielle leans in and hugs Ace. A slight startled look crosses his expression for a brief second. He composes himself quickly as Gabrielle lets go of him.
Gabrielle: Please, call me Gabi. It's an absolute honor to be standing here talking to you, Mr. Heart.
Ace Heart: For all the future Visconty fans out there .. what can we expect from you?
Gabi: 110%, Mr. Heart. I am going to do my damnedest to make sure every fan, everyone on the EWC roster remembers my name.
Ace Heart: Out of all the new Wrestlers who have signed recently, and with the ever growing FSW stable of Superstars, what sets you out as different?
Gabi: My butt.
Gabi replies quickly and then giggles at Ace's reaction. Once again Ace Heart appears to have been caught off guard.
Gabi: Just kidding. Really, my aerial skill and determination, Mr. Heart. I've been called a risk taker, a high flier, even crazy by people that have watched my matches. At two years into my career, and to be standing right here with you, right now, I would say that speaks for itself.
Ace Heart: Lastly, what is your immediate goal for Uprising and the EWC as a whole?
Gabi: You know what? I am going to let my actions speak for me, Mr. Heart. The next time we talk you won't have to use the generic 'new wrestler’ question format. I am sure the next time we talk you will have plenty to ask.
Ace Heart: Well, it was an absolute pleasure meeting you Gabri, uh, Gabi .. I wish you all the success in the world here in the EWC.
As Ace turns to address the camera, Gabi giggles slightly as she gives him 'bunny ears'.
Ace Heart: Back to you Mystery Man.
Ace turns to see what Gabi is giggling about and she quickly waves to the camera, grinning innocently.
The beat to “Redbone” by Childish Gambino begins to play throughout the stadium. A sea of silence washes over the crowd.
“NOW STAY WOKE”
The crowd explodes as the former X-Division and Television Champion Nostalgia bursts onto the stage, ear to ear grin on his face, right fist high in the air, bobbing his head. He stops, turns to his left, then Ashley Brizzie skips out onto the stage, wrapping her arm in his. Seemingly the entire Camp Nou Arena is on their feet as Nostalgia and DreamWeaver wave then begin to make their way down the ramp. They alternate between barricades, exchanging High-Fives and Fist Bumps with fans. They do the same as they split up and make their way around the ring. They hop onto the apron in unison, Nostalgia holds the ropes open for Dreamweaver to slide through, then Nostalgia leaps over the ropes and into the ring. He makes his way to the top of each turnbuckle, raising his right fist, eliciting huge pops from the crowd. As he descends the last turnbuckle, his fiance, Ashley Brizzie, hands him the mic. The fans cheers are too loud for him to continue, so he puts his fist in the air, and they begin to quiet down.
Nostalgia: SENTIMENTALISTS! It has been way too long.
Deafening Hoots and hollers fill the arena. Nostalgia pulls the mic down, taking time to enjoy the love from the fans he missed over the last few months.
Nostalgia: Thank You! Thank you all for not giving up on me. I cannot even describe how much that means after the Hell I put you all through. I would have accepted if I lost some Sentimentalists when that Leviathan took over, or so I hear. As you could tell at StableWars, I was not myself. I still did not really have any memories back. Not making any excuses, I stepped in the ring, I should have done better, but I apologize for my poor performance on Team Brawl’s behalf. After that match, Ashley and I spent the week going to specialist after specialist, but it wasn’t until we met some radical individuals was I able to retrieve my memories, well it’s kinda like Jason Bourne style. I don’t remember everything, and when I do, it hurts.
Nostalgia pauses, and take a deep breath. He looks over at his fiancee and cracks a smile before continuing.
Nostalgia: Now, I owe some more apologies. NSFW, Mike Mcguire, especially, I am so sorry for the damage I caused. Ashley informed me you do not want any monetary reimbursement. So all I can do is plead for forgiveness. To Freaks and Geeks, I am sorry for the assaults and betrayal. And of course, my main man, Carlos Ruiz. You are the best friend a guy could have. Last and definitely not least; “Dream Weaver” Ashley Brizzie, I am sorry you had to go through all that pain and grief for me. It must have been agonizing. Thank you for not giving up on me and helping ensure the Sentimentalists did either.
We Love Nostalgia
We Love Nostalgia
We Love Nostalgia
Nostalgia: And I love you all too. Hopefully I was able to entertain and inspire. I love this business, and it was an honor being apart of EWC. Now if you noticed, I said WAS.
A general hush falls over the crowd, except for the whispers between friends.
Nostalgia: It comes with a heavy heart that I announce my retirement here tonight. But after this supernaturally challenging ordeal, I have decided it is time to hang up the boots.
A collective gasp takes the air out of the room.
Nostalgia: I have been through a whole lot here in my EWC run. As much triumph as tribulation. More friends than enemies, and well apparently, I have a brother. Yes, and he is the most hated man in EWC, Draco Lazarus
These gasps are even more empathetic. The crowd is shocked.
Nostalgia:Don’t worry, Draco is not here with me tonight. I actually have no idea where he is. But with this revelation, along with some other life lessons learned, I need to move on from wrestling world. When purpose comes calling, I answer. For the last 4 years, that focal point has been the squared circle. Now, well let’s just say Ash and I will spending a lot of time in abandoned buildings and the other creepiest of places. Ash, do you want to say anything?
She waves him off, letting him have his last moment with the Sentimentalists.
Nostalgia: Alright, well then I guess that is all I got is thank those who helped me reach the top of the EWC. My opponents. Everyone from Ace King to Candy to Rob Garcia. Facing the greatest competition in the world made me a better wrestler than I ever imagined. While I failed to win the Undisputed Title, had this Leviathan bit not happened, I feel confident I would hoisted that belt with pride one day. I stated when I arrived that I wanted to go down as he Biggest Baddest Greatest Jobber of All Time. A TV Title, X-Divison Title, Undefeated Rampage Season, and arguably best Brawl season later, I feel I have accomplished that goal. But I promise, if the urge to wrestle ever comes back, I will return home.
Nostalgia
Nostalgia
Nostalgia
Nostalgia: I promised myself I wouldn’t cry, so I am gonna stop before I break that promise. Remember, STAY WOKE, and follow your dreams. Don’t let anyone or any system hold you back. Thank you for all the great times.
Stay Woke begins to play again, the fans give Nostalgia a standing ovation as he again heads to each side of the ring to acknowledge the endearing fans. Ashley takes his hand and hoists them in the air, getting one more huge pop before they exit the ring, and make their way up the ramp, and onto their next chapter.
Mystery Man: Well this was certainly a surprise but what a beautiful closing moment here for Nostaliga. He certainly made a big impression not just on the fans, but on the roster and front office. Nostalgia will certainly be missed by us all and hope he does indeed leave that door open for a return .. I know Mac will certainly be open to signing him back on

FBI: C’mon CottonEye Joe!
Hanks: Of COURSE, you would cheer him on!
DING DING DING
With that bell almost everyone found an opponent to get a tie-up with, on one side of the ring Romeo Don Juan and Liam Mason were double teaming Neveah with a series of lefts and rights, Neveah fell back on the ropes, leaving enough space for Los Amates to hook on a double suplex and try to lift her over the ropes! But she battles out of it, and rocked both men with a forearm to the jaw, which lead to Billy Mitchell sprinting away from his tie-up with the Bullfrog Jeremiah Kelsey to slam into BOTH men with a double 3:10 to yuma that sent them both flung over the rope rope and crashing to the ground!
Nina Dobrev: Ladies and gentlemen, Romeo Don Juan and Liam “The Rascal” Mason have both been eliminated… we are down to 19 competitors!
Mystery Man: Billy Mitchell has seen a dramatic change as of late and it seems to be paying off so far in this one!
One the other side of the ring, Big Mama Pump was manhandling Anthony Grunge, but her power game was cut short when she attempted to toss him over and he used the ropes as leverage to flip her out! Malcolm Myers attempted to then fling Grunge over but was met with by a dropkick from Greg Samuel that sent him soaring out of the ring and to the ground. Greg attempted to knock off Grunge but AOP aka Arsenal had different plans and slammed Samuel with a huge German suplex! Grunge was sliding back into the ring but was scooped up by AOP and tossed out via powerbomb!
Nina Dobrev: Ladies and gentlemen, Big Mama Pump, Malcolm Myers and Anthony Grunge have been eliminated. We are down to 16 competitors!
FBI: Joe you can do it!
Joe however was currently fighting for his life as he attempted a pickup line on Gabrielle that resulted in a deafening slap from Gabrielle, followed by Grayse attempting to push him out! But a few feet away Greg Samuel was back up and battling it out with AOP. AOP ducked a punch and went for his patented Punchmaker but Samuel ducked it and landed a neckbreaker. Dirk left his position and sprinted over, laying into Greg with a forearm that knocked him backwards into AOP who used Greg’s momentum to stand and roll into a German Suplex that sent Greg soaring over the top rope! But AOP didn’t get a break as Dirk instantly hooked his leg and flipped him over as well! On the outside of the ring Jeremiah was fighting off Neveah and Aeon, but Aeon abandoned that effort when he saw Dirk catching a breather… Aeon quickly rolled out of the ring and snuck around to Dirk and yanked him out over the top!
Hanks: What?
Mystery Man: Aeon rolled out, he didn’t go over the top rope!
FBI: HAHA, nice!
Nina Dobrev: Ladies and gentlemen, Greg Samuel, AOP aka Arsenal and Dirk Buchanan have been eliminated! We are down to 13 competitors!
What followed was a succession of rapid fire eliminations when Chris Maverick pulled Aeon in and tossed him out, followed by Gabrielle tossing Chris out, followed by Kendrick Kross tossing Gabrielle out. Joe saw Gabrielle hit the floor and looked like he wanted to cry, as he went over Kross. Joe didn’t get far as Grayse and Larson double-teamed Kross and tossed him over. Joe settled with tossing over Larson while Maddox Arys rushed in to get rid of Grayse!
Nina Dobrev: Ladies and gentlemen, Aeon Khronos, Chris Maverick, Gabrielle Visconty, Kendrick Kross, Scott Grayse and James Larson have all been eliminated! We are down to 7!
Hanks: The bottom 7!
Joe was broken-hearted over Gabrielle and it lead to quick elimination at the hands of El Pablo, while Sebastian Connor hit Maddox Ayres with a flurry of punches capped off with a devastating uppercut that sent the high flyer flying over the top rope! Jeremiah swooped in behind El Pablo and Neveah swooped in behind Sebastian and both men were eliminated!
Nina Dobrev: ladies and gentlemen, Cottoneye Joe Hustle, Maddox Ayres, El Pablo and Sebastian Connor have all be eliminated… we are down to 3!
Mystery Man: The final 3! Billy Mitchell, Neveah and Jeremiah Kelsey!
Jeremiah and Neveah locked into a tie-up, jockeying for position, but Billy Mitchell would knock them both down with his power advantage. Billy attempted a suplex on Jeremiah but the bullfrog landed on his feet and slam into Mitchell with a roundhouse kick! Neveah took the opportunity to rush Kelsey but he leaped into a hurricanrana and send Neveah flying onto the outside. Jeremiah stood to go over Mitchell but was met with a huge right hand to gut, followed by a stiff punch to the jaw, followed by getting tossed over! Mitchell wins! Mitchell wins!
Nina Dobrev: Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of this match… Billy Mitchell!
DING DING DING!!!
Mystery Man: What a win for Billy Mitchell who is really coming into his own as of late!
FBI: I told you, Billy Mitchell always wins big at WrestleFest… last year he beat Grizzly Duggan and this year he won a Battle Royal! This kid is going places!

Rob Garcia, just moments from away from his X-Division Championship match, makes his way back from the medical trainer after Noon's beatdown at the hands of Shelley Silver. A look of concern is wiped away, aware of being filmed perhaps, to that smug grin. Two opposing figures step in his way but Garcia's expression doesn't change. After all, its America's Most Hated's heavies - The Limit.
Frank: Sanders thought you could use a hand.
Alexander: Or two.
The Detroit bruisers share an evil little chuckle. Rob shakes his head.
Garcia: I'm good. Crappy won't know what hit him.
The Limit, not known for restraint, stifle a possibly rude reaction. Ethan puts a hand on Garcia's shoulder.
Alexander: Garcia, let's go. All three of us versus some broken down biker. He doesn't stand a chance.
Rob politely removes the man's hand.
Garcia: Thanks, but no thanks. I gotta do this for myself.
The ReMnant pushes past The Limit, steeled determination replaces his normally abrasive disposition. Rob tunes out Frank's ominous parting statement.
Frank: Your funeral, kid.
