Commentators: Micah Everett and Sandra Amsler
Announcer: Damon Reid
Senior Referee: Niklaus Forbes
Backstage Interviewer: Jenna Salvatore
While 'Could've Been Me' by The Struts blares over the loudspeakers at every locations, golden fireworks light up the sky in a display that shines brightly regardless of it is day or night. Brilliant blue spotlights swirl over the cheering crowds, whipping them up into a near-frenzy of excitement at the show to come.
Cameras flash all around the arena as the X-Tron cycles through Prime's roster. Jordan Freaking Sharpe, Dio, Lorenzo, Nevaeh, Faith Rivers, The Southern Express, Cade, Emma Louise, Lavender, Scorpio, Narumi Tsutsumi, Yaya Banana, Jamie Love, Mark Keaton, Kendrick Kross and S.I.N are all featured.
After one final pan over the crowd...
The camera centers on ringside at the Kaiser Permanente Arena, where Micah Everett and Sandra Amsler sit. As soon as they notice the camera, both commentators smile.
Micah Everett: Welcome to Prime! It's night two of the G1 but who is California dreaming of those two points?
Sandra Amsler: We have a lot on the show tonight including the new Showtime Television Champion, Faith Rivers and a Wrestle Fest rematch when Jordan Sharpe defends his Indy Title against Jamie Love all as part of the G1.
Everett: Aw damnit! Not those two! I avoided Wrestle Fest like plague just to avoid them.
Amsler: Well that brightens my day.

Jenna Salvatore is seen standing backstage with the Problematic Paradox himself, Michael Cade. The cheers of the crowd can be heard coming from inside of the arena. Smiling Jenna begins to talk as she eyes one of PRIME’s newest superstars.
Jenna Salvatore: Welcome again to PRIME where you face off against one half of the Young Lions. I heard you have a few things that you would like to address regarding your opponent tonight.
Cade: Yeah, Jenna this kid seemed to be overly upset about me labeling him as the Second Fiddle. He went of a rant about how him and Jamie are a fifty fifty team. He then suggested that I was more concerned with his partners match with Jordan Sharpe than I was on him and our match.
Cade begins laughing.
Cade: Listen kid. If that’s what you took from my promo then I’d suggest going down to your local grade school and enroll in a few kindergarten classes.
I didn’t take you as the sniffling whine bag that you’ve turned into since we’ve been booked to face each other. I didn’t realize that your one of those snowflake kids. You’d probably complain if some cop came up to you asking questions too. Wouldn’t you?
This business wasn’t built on the backs of kids who complained and bemoans their deserving because I said so comments. It was built by men who spilled blood and sweat. It was built by men who paved the way so kids like you can pretend you really matter in the grand scheme of things.
Lorenzo let’s clear the air so to speak. I was trying to be respectful and give you what credit that I could. Regardless that you’ve never accomplished anything in this business. Inside or outside of the EWC you’re nothing. You’ll always be nothing.
I’m new to the world of EWC but I’ve built a name in this business once and I’ll do it once again. With time I’ll be considered the best while you’re still floundering in the open card. You’ll still be living off the coat tails of your childhood BFF as you like to say.
You realize that you sound just like my teenage daughter with your little crushes and BFF’s. I heard recently that a legend of this business called today’s wrestler’s soft. I’m not gonna lie kid. When I look at you I can’t argue his sentiments. I’m going to go as far as to through some more adjectives into that though. Weak. Puny. Whimpy.
See you in that ring kid… I’ll try not to make you cry to much. I’ll try not to hurt your fragile ego and crush your dreams in your opening singles match.
Cade winks at Jenna before walking away.
MATCH #1

Cade
Vs Lorenzo
--------------------
Cade
Vs Lorenzo
--------------------
Everett: What a match this opener promises to be
Amsler: Exactly. Both are at the start of their Prime careers and both would love to get a win here tonight.
Everett: I know who I'm rooting for. Cade. I'm not a big fan of Lorenzo. Or Jamie Love. I'd like to see them lose every match they are in.
Amsler: Really? I'll hold you to that.
Reid: The following match is set for one fall. Joining us first, residing in Paradise, California , weighing in tonight at 221 pounds ... CADE!
'I Want it All' by Queen begins to play as soon as the beginning lyrics trail off into the opening riffs Michael Cade walks out from behind the curtain. The lights begin to flash in dues of whites and purples as he stops center stage placing his hands on his hips as he looks out towards the crowd. With a few passing moments he begins to walk down the entrance ramp making sure to reach out towards any kids reaching out in anticipation of high fiving the superstar.
Once he reaches the ringside area he places his foot on the first steel step as he reaches up and grabs the steel ring post as he walks up onto the ring apron. Cade turns while standing on the apron cupping his hands to his mouth as he screams out towards the crowd.
"WOOOO"
The echos of the chant reverberate from the audience as he turns and steps between the ropes. He walks over and pats the referee on the shoulder as he backs away into his corner of the ring. He begins to bounce from one foot to the other in a sorts of a shuffle ala Muhammad Ali style.
Reid: And the opponent, hailing from South Los Angeles, weighing in at 185 pounds ... LORENZO!
Livin La Vida Loca hits the PA system and Lorenzo walks out onto the stage rotating his hips a bit. On his right Maria Love is absentmindedly swiveling her own hips in time to the music. They both walk to the ring with Lorenzo rolling under the ropes and leaning against the ring ropes talking to Maria as he waits for
DING DING DING
Lorenzo runs at Cade who ducks causing Lorenzo to run off the ropes. Lorenzo dives at Cade with a Running Cross Body but, again, Cade ducks and Lorenzo hits canvas. Lorenzo is largely unfazed and hits Cade with a Hip Toss. Lorenzo tries to apply an Armbar but Cade slips out. Cade tries to hit an Elbow drop to Lorenzo's Spine, Lorenzo moves and Cade hits canvas. Lorenzo dives on top for a cover but Cade moves and Lorenzo hits canvas. This time, Cade does hit an Elbow Drop to Lorenzo's spine. Cade lifts Lorenzo up and dumps him in the corner where he lights up Lorenzo's chest with chops that echo across the Kaiser Permanente Arena before grabbing Lorenzo with a Snapmare followed by a kick to the lower spine. Cade lifts Lorenzo to his feet and cracks him with an Elbow to the skull and a Swinging Neckbreaker. Cade lifts Lorenzo to his feet again but this time Lorenzo lashes out with forearms before a running Clothesline knocks Cade over the top rope to the floor. Lorenzo dives through the ropes hitting a Tope Suicida but a second one is caught by Cade who dumps Lorenzo back inside the ring. Cade gets to the ring apron and throws himself over the top rope hitting Lorenzo with a Cross Body.
Everett: Cade starting out well I like it.
Amsler: Lorenzo is still in this right now. I wouldn't be against him mounting a comeback.
Both men are on their feet. Cade lashes out with a Right Hand that Lorenzo ducks allowing him to hit Cade with a DDT. Lorenzo follows this up with a low Dropkick to the side of the head followed with a Standing Dropkick when Cade returns to his feet that sends him stumbling into the corner. Lorenzo hits ten punches in the corner followed by a Monkey Flip that sends Cade flying across the ring. Lorenzo charges at Cade but eats a Back Elbow. Cade hits Lorenzo with a German Suplex with such force that Lorenzo rolls into the corner. Cade runs looking for a Redux Splash but at the last second, Lorenzo moves. Cade just manages to stop before going chest first into the corner. Lorenzo runs at Cade but he's scooped up as Cade hits a Paradise Slam. He hooks the leg.

DING DING DING
Reid: And your winner, via pinfal LORENZO!Lorenzo lies face first in the mat for a moment as the emotion of his victory hits him. He stands up leaning against the ropes. He holds up an arm in victory and falls through the ropes. He lands on his feet and continues his celebration.
Everett: Sadly Lorenzo gets the win. However, Cade came close. There were times in this match that I thought Cade was going to walk away with the win
Amsler: As did I but Cade went to that proverbial well one time to many and it cost him.
Everett: If it was a wishing well, Lorenzo probably threw his entire month's pay in it.
Amsler: It clearly worked. But who else was making friends with the wishing well? We will find out in a few moments as it's the G1 next!
Backstage we go where a camera is trailing Jenna Salvatore through the corridors. After a brief journey she rounds a corner and stops in her tracks. The camera steps around to reveal Silas Isaac Naberius pacing back and forth down the hallway while talking on the phone.
Naberius: And I'm telling you that the damn orphanage has been scheduled to be demolished for six months now.
He stops, looks up at the ceiling.
Naberius: I don't care they have no bloody homes. That's your problem, not mine.
He emphatically presses the end call button – about as much as one can – and finally notices the cameras and stares, wide-eyed.
Naberius: ... How long have you been there?
Salvatore wastes no time in closing the distance with her microphone in hand.
Salvatore: Silas, it's been nearly a year since you were last seen in the EWC – what's happened in that time?
Naberius stares at the microphone, the camera, then at Salvatore.
Naberius: Peace and quiet, that's what.
Salvatore: I couldn't help but notice that your opponent for this week, Narumi Tsutsumi, mentioned your dislike of Dominic Sanders which was your target last we saw you. Now that he's retired... where does S.I.N. go from here?
Naberius: About twenty feet away from you if you'd give him chance.
He steps to the side but Salvatore follows, microphone still in Naberius' face.
Naberius: But... beyond such far-fetched hopes and dreams... the next steps for S.I.N. are as follows: tonight, beat Tsutsumi and later pray that Mark Keaton beats Faith Rivers; next week, beat Keaton for the Showtime Broadcast title; after that, beat Keaton and, perhaps, Rivers too in necessary, then beat whoever won the other block. Then, go to Stranglemania and win the Indy Championship as well.
Salvatore: That's... less certain than I expected from you.
Naberius: You live life with a little hope, Jenna. If you don't, you end up retiring before you see things through. I choose to live in the moment and not dwell on such worries – maybe you'd do well to learn from that and forget the past.
He promptly turns on his heel and exits, beginning to fiddle with his phone once again.
MATCH #2
»G1 BLOCK TWO«
Narumi Tsutsumi
Vs S.I.N
--------------------
Narumi Tsutsumi
Vs S.I.N
--------------------
Everett: Well this is an interesting match for the G1.
Amsler: In the opening round of the G1, Narumi Tsutsumi tasted defeat and thus currently sits on no points. Her opponent SHOULD be Victor Jarvis who also sits on zero points having lost last show to Faith Rivers in a result that also cost him the Prime TV Title.
Everett: However, in that loss he suffered an injury that has eliminated him from the G1 and he's been replaced by S.I.N.
Amsler: Both need those points as it's going to be really difficult to progress in the G1 without them.
Reid: The following match, set for one fall, is part of the G1. Making her way to the ring, weighing in at 115 pounds, from Shinjuku Japan.......she is the Onihime……..Narumi Tsutsumi!!!!!!
Stage spotlights shine down in the dark as "The Baddest" by Raon Lee begins to play with the oni princess skipping onto the scene in a pink oni mask. Narumi waves at the fans as the spotlight follows her. As she makes her to the ring apron, she turns to the camera to take off her mask and blows a kiss as the lights turn back on in the arena. She enters the ring to skip around and wave at the crowd.
Reid: And the opponent, Making his way to the ring, residing in Whitechapel, London, England, weighing 167 lbs ... SILAS ISAAC NABERIUS!
The lights suddenly go out, plunging the arena into darkness. 'Sympathy for the Devil' by The Rolling Stones begins to play and, after a short wait, a spotlight reveals Silas Isaac Naberius with his Pet following close behind. He tilts his hat and twirls his cane as he makes his way down to the ring. He climbs the ring steps, places his hat on the post and cane on the turnbuckle, and enters the ring. He scans the crowd and settles into his corner.
DING DING DING
Both charge each other but S.I.N strikes first with a knee to the gut that doubles Narumi over followed by clubbing forearms to her shoulder blades. S.I.N sends Narumi of the ropes before hitting a Back Body Drop. S.I.N is able to quickly mount Narumi and unload with a series of right hands before the referee has to step in and drag S.I.N off. This gives Narumi time to get to her feet and she catches S.I.N with a roundhouse kick to the gut once he escapes the official. Narumi follows up with forearms to his chest before S.I.N attempts a clothesline. Narumi ducks it and chops S.I.N hard across the chest. Narumi sends S.I.N off the ropes and hits him with a Rear View. She makes a cover.

Kick out.
S.I.N easily gets a shoulder up and quickly gets to his feet before knocking down Narumi with a still looking Lariat. As Narumi picks herself up off the mat, S.I.N boots her hard in the ribs with a Soccer kick. S.I.N stands in the corner lining up a second attempt. He runs. Somehow, Narumi is able to leap to her feet knocking S.I.N down with a Superman Punch out of almost nowhere.
Everett: Where in earth did that come from?
Amsler: That, for me, shows how much both want and need the G1 points in this match.
Both make their way to the centre of the ring. Narumi clutching her ribs. S.I.N lashes out with a Right Hand. Narumi responds with one of her own. They exchange rights for a few moments before S.I.N ducks one and catches Narumi with a Knife For Your Back. He makes a cover.

Everett: Both coming close. Those points really are valuable.
Amsler: If they want to leave here with maximum points, someone needs to get the win.
S.I.N is on his feet first and he tries to lift Narumi off the canvas but she rams her shoulder into his gut before hitting S.I.N with a stinging hop to the chest. Narumi runs off the ropes and catches S.I.N with a Clothesline. It doesn't knock him down so S.I.N Chops Narumi before hitting a Silas Ladder.

Reid: And your winner, via pinfal SILAS ISAAC NABERIUS!S.I.N gets to his feet and scowls at the referee before leaving the ring. As he heads up the isle, he holds a triumphant hand in the air.
Everett: What a result. Two valuable points heading in the direction of Sin.
Amsler: Narumi gave it her all but on this night it wasn't enough.
Everett: I'll give her credit where it's due, she gave Sin a fight.
Amsler: Speaking of getting physical, Dio is up next as part of the G1 when he faces of with Kendrick Kross.
Camera cuts to ...
Everett: Folks I’m hearing we’re heading backstage where Jenna is tracking down the newest member of the PRIME roster, Scorpio…
We go backstage and the fans give a op as Jenna Salvatore is roaming the backstage corridors with a camera following her. As she rounds a corner we spot the silhouette of Scorpio and Crème de la Crème ahead and the crowd begin to boo loudly.
Salvatore: Scorpio! Scorpio! Can I grab a few words?
He outright ignores her. Salvatore reaches Scorpio and taps him on the shoulder causing The Prime Minister to spin around with a scowl on his face.
Scorpio: NOBODY GAVE YOU PERMISSION TO TOUCH GREATNESS HOW DARE YOU?!
Salvatore recoils in horror as Crème lays a calming hand on Scorpio’s arm. The Prime Minister rolls his eyes before he takes a deep breath.
Scorpio: Fine, you want some words, here you go – if you ever put me on fucking GAMBIT again I will burn this brand to the ground and trample on the ashes. Remember when I trashed this place last season just to send a message? Child’s play in comparison to the horror I’ll unleash the second you try and make me wrestle a house show. Got it?
He doesn’t even wait for a response before strutting off down the hallway, his and Crème’s heeled boots click-clacking into the distance.
Amsler: I don’t know about you but I’m getting the impression that maybe Scorpio’s a bit angry at being relegated to the house show for his big return? It’s not clear…
MATCH #3
»G1 BLOCK 1«
Dio
Vs Kendrick Kross
--------------------
Dio
Vs Kendrick Kross
--------------------
Everett: This should be a cracker and there's a lot of points on the board.
Amsler: Dio versus Kendrick Kross in the G1. Kendrick suffered a loss last time out to Jamie Love and as such is bottom of Block One.
Everett: Dio fared slightly better. He and Jordan Sharpe were both unable to answer a ten count and the match was ruled a draw giving Dio a big one point. Both need to win here to keep any hope of progressing alive.
Amsler: Did you say big one? It got hazy after that.
It Goes A One Two Three are the lyrics that start the song off as the arena goes dark. The next line starts as a white spotlight turns on and shines down on Kendrick who is standing there with his black jeans and black and white Kross T-Shirt and leather jacket. Kendrick walks down, the spotlight gone with the arena lights red and others flashing silver.
Reid: The following match set for one fall is a G1 Match. Joining us first, from Chelsea London, weighing at 215 Pounds....KENDRICK KROSS!
Kendrick slowly continues his descent down the ramp ignoring any fans that try to touch him. He just shakes his head at signs that read 'Kendrick Sucks' and other various signs. He reaches the bottom of the ramp and stops as he lets a small smirk out and he takes a breath. He closes his eyes before opening them and walking forward taking a left towards the steps. He hops over the top rope and onto the second turnbuckle looking out into the crowd before jumping down and walking to his corner.
Reid: The opponent, residing in Seattle, Washington and weighing in at 205 pounds. He is Your Crux... DIO!
The lights dim down, and a voice comes over the PA system.
”I am your Crux.”
The phrase kicks off the sounds of “Change (in the house of flies)” by the Deftones as Dio emerges from the curtain and stands atop the stage. He surveys the crowd, tugging at the collar of his leather jacket before heading down toward the ring.
DING DING DING
Kross runs at Dio for a running Dropkick but Dio swats it away. Dio throws Kross off the ropes looking for a Backdrop that Kross manages to counter into a Sunset Flip. Dio manages to stay on his feet before leaping into the air for a Legdrop. Kross moves and Dio hits canvas. Kross grabs Dio's leg looking for a Knee Bar but Dio kicks Kross in the face before rolling up Kross for a School Boy. The referee isn't even able to move before Kross rolls right out of it and Dropkicks Dio in the face. Kross presses Dio against the ropes and chops him. Kross sends Dio off the ropes but Dio hits a Sling Blade. Kross staggers back into the corner and Dio charges him. Kross counters managing to lift Dio onto the top turnbuckle. Dio dives at Kross for a... ahem Cross Body but Kross catches Dio hitting a Powerslam that Dio turns into a Small Package.

Dio runs at Kross looking for a Clothesline. Kross ducks and follows up with a DDT. Dio staggers into the corner where Kross runs at him. Dio gets his feet up to block but Kross grabs them and carries Dio to the middle of the ring looking for a Powerbomb. Dio slips out and kicks Kross in the gut and tries to apply a Tranquility. Kross Back Drops Dio but Dio is able to land on his feet. Before Dio has an opportunity for any follow up, Kross hits a Pele Kick knocking Dio down. The cover

Everett: A big result there for Dio. He needed that after last week.
Amsler: That he did. Both did. Take nothing away from Kross he came close but, much like when I passed Dio in the coridoor, not close enough.
Everett: What? Still at least we have a top match coming up next. Anything to stop you drooling on the console.

G1 BLOCK 1 MATCH FOR THE INDY CHAMPIONSHIP
G1 BLOCK 1 MATCH FOR THE INDY CHAMPIONSHIP
Jamie Love
Vs Jordan Sharpe
Vs Jordan Sharpe
Everett: It's got to be done I suppose. Jordan Sharpe versus Jamie Love.
Amsler: Jordan was only able to get a point for a draw in his last time round. Yet, Jamie Love got a win and the maximum two points when he beat Kendrick Jamie can take maximum points here tonight, he will walk away with a good place in the G1 and the Indy Championship
Everett: Hope he doesn't. Then I also don't want Sharpe to win. A draw gives them a point and I don't want that either. Can Dominic Sanders get the points?
Amsler: Hang on and I'll check the rules, no.
Reid: The following match set for one fall is a G1 Match and it is for the Indy Championship! Joining us first, residing in South Los Angeles , weighing just 120pounds ... JAMIE LOVE!
As the music waits to play Jamie steps out onto the stage with Lorenzo and Maria off to the side. As Jamie stands there he touches his wrists together in the shape of an X. As the music starts the name Love comes down from the ceiling in giant spinning pyro as more pyro ignites on both sides of the ramp and follows him as he walks down to the ring. The fans boo Jamie as he walks silently to the ring with both Maria and Lorenzo at his side. Once he gets to the ring he stands in the corner and listens to some last minute advice from his best friend and his manager.
Reid: And the opponent, residing in New Brunswick, Canada and weighing in at 230 pounds he is the Indy Champion ... JORDAN FREAKIN' SHARPE!
Jordan Sharpe comes out, wearing the newest JFS Officially Licensed T-Shirt. Accompanied by Carley California, He heads down the ramp with gusto, with plenty of merch to pass out for the fans whether it be hats, shirts, tumblers, pop sockets. He hands them out to any kids, neckbeards or people he thinks are cool beans. As he makes it to the ring, the fans chant 'NO!' after each 'You ain't ready' in his entrance music as he poses against the ropes or up on the turnbuckle.
DING DING DING
Jordan lashes out at Jamie with a Clothesline but Jamie ducks and hits Jordan with a Superkick. Jamie follows with a series of Forearm Smashes. Jamie tries to whip Jordan off the ropes but Jordan reverses it sending Jamie off the ropes. Jordan Back Drops Jamie only for Jamie to counter it with a DDT that drops Jordan head first onto the canvas. Jordan sits up and eats a Low Dropkick before Jamie runs off the ropes hitting a Senton. He runs off the opposite side but this time, Jordan drops him with a Spinebuster. Both get to their feet and Jordan knees Jamie in the gut before hitting a European Uppercutt. Jordan sends Jamie off the ropes but Jamie knocks Jordan down with a Flying Forearm.
Everett: He pulled that one out of the bag.
Amsler: He had to but, can he keep himself in this?
Both get to their feet and Jordan hits Jamie with a European Uppercut that sends Jamie flying into the corner. Jordan charges looking for the Freakin' Boot. at the last second, Jamie ducks and Jordan gets his foot caught on the top turnbuckle. Jamie rolls out the ring and onto the apron. From there Jamie slingshots back into the ring hitting Jordan with something that looks a mix of Splash and Cross Body. Jamie gets to his feet and runs at Jordan who blasts Jamie with a Clothesline before hitting an Ode to Milo.

Everett: I may not like him but he just scored two big points here tonight.
Amsler: There were moments I thought Jamie Love might steal this, Jordan Sharpe proved why he was the champion here tonight.
Everett: I still say that if Dominic Sanders was in this he'd be leading the block with six points by now.
Amsler: He is clearly playing the video game at this point folks. Either that or his urine needs tested. For those in the real world we have Faith Rivers defending the Showtime Network Championship up next against Mark Keaton.
Camera cuts to ...
As the crowd settles down “Rule Britannia” begins to play and the fans boo loudly knowing just who is about to come out. The lights go red, white, and blue as Crème de la Crème steps out in a somewhat demure and down-played navy blue gown. She raises a microphone with a smile on her face.
Crème: Ladies, gentlemen, and everyone in between… please be upstanding for The Prime Minister…
The music changes to Madonna’s “Iconic” as Scorpio emerges from the back standing tall and proud atop his custom Louboutins. He struts down the ramp ignoring the abuse hurled at him from the fans before Crème skips ahead to climb onto the apron and open the ropes. Scorpio enters the ring and is handed a microphone as the music fades.
Scorpio: Ok now I’m on Prime you need to learn one thing – YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP AND LISTEN WHEN I’M SPEAKING.
Everett: How to make friends and influence people the S-Factor way…
Obviously this only infuriates the fans more as Scorpio rolls his eyes and paces the ring waiting for the noise to die down.
Scorpio: Yet again this godforsaken company has tried to suppress me by putting me on a pathetic house show, and yet again I’ve proven my worth and my mettle but not letting it phase me and coming out here anyway. Now I am a kind and generous man who only looks to improve the life experiences of the EWC fans, and as an independent wrestler I have every legal right to appear on Prime and there’s not a thing Daniel Mac and his band of cronies can do about it, so here I am, exercising my right to vastly improve the overall talent levels of this gutter-trash show.
More boos and Scorpio shares a knowing glance with Crème.
Scorpio: You may not appreciate me now but one day you’ll look back on this and realise just how ignorant you’re all being. I am the best damn thing to come to this company, I am the reason why the Undisputed Championship isn’t a pass the parcel game between King, Malone, and Black. I MADE THIS PLACE GREAT AGAIN. Alas… I am not as fickle as you… I like to show appreciation for those who have done good for me… Crème take a look at the X-Tron…
Amsler: What is this?
He gestures to the screen and the crowd seem a little confused as it bursts into life. Scorpio places a hand on Crème’s shoulder and smiles as the tron video opens with “Thank You” and shows Scorpio and Crème stood side by side on his inauguration as the 46th President of The United States. It flashes through multiple shots of Crème introducing Scorpio, singing the national anthem during his entrances, and standing by his side during promos. It then shows us shots of Crème interfering on Scorpio’s behalf in matches – we see her throwing him the hairdryer that got him a win over then-Undisputed Champion Cyrus Black, we see her putting Scorpio’s boots on the ropes to score the first fall in the win over Ace King for the United States Championship, and we even see her taking a superkick off the Hell In A Cell from Melody Malone at last year’s Stranglemania. We then see WrestleFest XVIII as Crème de la Crème tries to interfere in the President vs. President match but is taken out by Georgie Nickles; the final shot is of Scorpio begging for his job and shouting for Crème to help him, and the drag queen saying “I’m Sorry” before walking out on Scorpio. The crowd fall quiet as the smile disappears from Scorpio’s face and his hand tightens on Crème’s shoulder.
Scorpio: That was my moment of greatest need and you walked out on me…
Crème slowly turns to her friend as Scorpio’s emerald eyes narrow.
Scorpio: When the whole world was against me, when Daniel had turned them all, I always knew I could count on you. Except for then.
Crème de la Crème begins to shake her head and starts to plead her case as Scorpio takes a deep breath.
Scorpio: I don’t tolerate treason.
And without another word he drops the microphone and lands a hard right forearm to Crème’s face! The drag queen’s wig flies off as Scorpio kicks her legs out and drops her into the position for the 28th Amendment. He grabs both of Crème’s arms and hauls her up. She screams out begging for mercy – BEFORE SCORPIO STOMPS HIS OWN MANAGER’S HEAD INTO THE MAT! The crowd are stunned as Crème goes limp and Scorpio falls to his knees staring at his friend’s unconscious form.
Everett: I don’t believe it! Scorpio just delivered the 28th Amendment to his own manager!
Amsler: Crème betrayed him and walked out at WrestleFest… she had it coming…
In an almost tender and caring moment Scorpio places Crème’s wig back on her head before he picks up the microphone. Still knelt on the mat staring down at his manager he continues to speak.
Scorpio: But as I said I’m a kind and generous man, and I am a far better leader than any of those in this fucking company, which is why I am willing to forgive those who have wronged me once they have been punished. Crème… I forgive you…
Amsler: What an upstanding man!
Everett: I mean he did stamp Crème’s head into the mat and left her unconscious before declaring he forgives her I’m not sure that’s the same…
Scorpio looks up from his downed manager.
Scorpio: But there are those who have wronged me on this brand who have not been punished.
He gets to his feet and stares around the crowd.
Scorpio: Remember when they enacted the screwjob to take my United States Championship and Lavender took advantage of one of my lowest moments to insult me and try and weasel her way unto an Undisputed Championship opportunity. Because I remember. And whilst I may have ended her measly challenge without stepping between the ropes she hasn’t yet paid for her desperate attempt to one-up me. It’s coming Lav.
The Prime Minister smirks to himself as the crowd are unsure how to react.
Scorpio: Or what about Nevaeh, the woman who cost me the Undisputed Championship. The bitch who got herself pinned in a match she frankly had no right competing in in the first place. You’re yet to pay for that fuck-up Nev, but you will. Oh my dear with me on Prime you will pay.
He takes a deep breath before his eyes fall on the camera lens.
Scorpio: Or indeed you, Jordan. You cheated yourself to a win the last time I came to Prime, and then you cheated your way to the awards I was owed. Wrestler of The Year? Get to fuck. You got lucky over a second-rate Undisputed Champion once and pushed a broken old man off a train. Wrestler of the fucking Year what a joke. Sweetie this might be your brand in the eyes of the cretins in the stands and the morons in the board rooms but by the time I’m done this will be my kingdom and you’re going to be nothing but a distant memory, an embarrassment for Prime, a long forgotten piece of the past. You had a meteoric rise and I will make your fall come even faster.
He throws the microphone aside as “Iconic” hits the speakers. Scorpio climbs from the ring before reaching in and pulling Crème’s unconscious body from it and onto his shoulders. He heads up the ramp with his curb-stomped manager in his clutches before disappearing to the back.
Everett: Well Scorpio has laid out his plans for Prime – he has no intentions of going back to Gambit and there are three members of the Prime roster he sees as targets.
Amsler: Scorpio is cashing cheques and he wants Nev, Lavender, and Sharpe to pay!
»G1 BLOCK TWO MATCH«
SHOWTIME BROADCAST CHAMPIONSHIP
MARK KEATON
Vs FAITH RIVERS
Everett: It's time for our main event! Last time out, Mark Keaton beat Narumi Tsutsumi in the G1. Faith Rivers also gained a two point win when she beat Kendrick Kross.
Amsler: In doing so Faith also won the Showtime Network Championship. Tonight they will battle out for Block Two supremacy and for the Showtime Network Championship.
Everett: My money is on Faith Rivers. She won the title last time and she's on a wave of momentum
Amsler: Well I'll take Mark Keaton. I think his win last time out was just the tip of the iceberg. I can't say I'm a fan of his but I'll give him his credit where it's due.
Reid: The following match, set for one fall, is part of the G1 and it is for the Showtime Network Championship. Introducing first, from Toronto Ontario Canada, coming to the ring accompanied by his manager, Astonishing Kevin Fisher..weighing in at 229 pounds ... REMARKABLE MARK KEATON!
Mark Keaton walks out on to the stage, he's wearing a thick, black leather jacket with studs and sunglasses. Mark is smoking a cigarette and sneering. He stops his swagger at the top of the ramp to play some excellent air guitar for a moment. Astonishing Kevin Fisher walks out behind him, he gives Mark a tap on the back of the shoulder. Mark does one final riff then makes a throwing motion, tossing his air guitar into the crowds. He removes his cigarette and flicks it at the camera, he starts walking to the ring while banging his head to his entrance music. He removes his sunglasses and jacket then runs, he slides in the ring then runs to the top turnbuckle. He's yelling at the crowds now and flexing his biceps. He jumps down then runs to another turnbuckle, this time he flexes his chest and points to his abs.
As "Legendary" by Skillet begins to play, the opening lyrics can be heard throughout the arena.
Legendary
Oh!
Legendary
Oh!
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh!
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh
By now, Faith Rivers has made her way out from the back with the (championship name) around her waist and is pumping up the crowd to her song as she makes her way down the aisle.
Reid: And the opponent, making her way to the ring from Miami, Florida... give it up for the Showtime Network Champion ... FAAAITH RIIIVERSSS!
After sliding in under the bottom rope, Faith gets to her feet and continues to work the crowd as she walks to the center of the ring where she spins in a circle before unfastening the championship from her waist and holding it up for all to see. As she does this, pyros go off in each corner. From there, Faith hands the title over to the referee and retreats to her side of the ring as waits for the match to begin.
DING DING DING
Faith charges at Keaton but he grabs her and hits her with a Backbreaker. Keaton sends Faith off the ropes and attempts a Clothesline but Faith ducks it and responds with Forearm Smashes that send Keaton into the corner. Faith Irish Whips Keaton into the opposite corner and attempts a Handspring Elbow only for Keaton to catch her mid spring and hit a German Suplex. Keaton lifts Faith to her feet and punches her in the gut before running off the ropes and hitting a boot to her face. Keaton lifts Faith for a Stalling Suplex but spends too long giving the crowd a one armed gun show that Faith is able to slip out and push Keaton off the ropes where Faith drops him with a Drop Toe Hold. Faith walks up Keaton. Faith lifts Keaton to his feet and hits a couple of Forearm Smashes before running off the ropes. She looks for a form of Hurricanrana but Keaton is able to counter it into a Tilt a Whirl Sitout Gordbuster.
Keaton bounces off the ropes before dropping onto Faith with a Splash. He hooks a leg.

Faith again easily gets a shoulder up. Getting frustrated, Keaton grabs Faith and shoves her into the corner. He lashes out with a Right Hand that Faith is able to duck before hitting Keaton with an Atomic Drop. As the vibration runs up his spine, Faith runs hitting a Bulldog. With Keaton down, Faith runs off the ropes, dives over Keaton for what can best be described as a Handstand before pushing herself back and dropping on Keaton with a Splash of her own. She hooks the leg.

Everett: Some unique offense there. Shows how uch the G1 and or the Blue Belt means to these competitors when they are reaching deap into their arsenal.
Amsler: That it does but in order to get the points and the title, they nee to keep the opponent grounded.
Both are on their feet. Faith lashes out with a Superkick that Keaton catches only for Faith to transition it into an Enziguri. Faith stands in the corner and waits for Keaton to slowly get to his feet before dropping him with The Halo. The cover.

Kick Out!
Everett: As you said earlier they need to keep their opponent down. That said, we might not be able to keep these two down if we nailed their ring attire to the canvas.
Amsler: Good point and a bizzare mental image.
Keaton rolls out of the ring yelling abuse at anything within earshot. He grabs a chair and the Showtime Championship from the timekeeper. He sits the championship in the corner of the ring and slides the chair and himself into the ring. Faith stands on the chair preventing Keaton from using it. He gets to his feet but Faith hits him with Roundhouse Kick to the ribs followed by Right Hands that send him back into the corner. She Irish Whips Keaton but he reverses it sending Faith into the corner. Keaton charges but he eats a Superkick that sends him flying backwards to the corner the championship is in. Keaton grabs the championship and runs at Faith. She ducks and Keaton hits nothing but air. Faith spins Keaton around before hitting Faithful

Reid: And your winner, via pinfall and STILL the Showtime Network Champion, FAITH RIVERS!Faith grabs her championship in her hand and holds it as she yells something at the fallen Keaton. She then holds the championship in the air with one hand and shows her four fingers of her other hand to the crowd to indicate the four points she now has in the G1
Everett: I told you she'd win! If there's one thing I know it's wrestling.
Amsler: May be the only thing you know.
Everett: What?
Amsler: It was a tough battle here but only one could win. Question is who will win next time as we head to Australia for the final round of matches in the G1. We're out of time here so be sure to join us next time on Prime.
