LIVE! from The SEC Centre in Glasgow, Scotland

EWC PRIME PRESENTS: WORLD WIDE III
General Manager: Victor Price
Commentators: Marshall Evans and Hayley Kushnir
Announcer: Damon Reid
Senior Referee: Niklaus Forbes
Other Referees: Stefan Elliot & Jessika Smalls
Backstage Interviewer: Jenna Salvatore

While 'RISE UP!' by Skillet blares over the loudspeakers at every location, a multi colored lightshow lights up the sky in a display that gets the fans screaming the EWC PRIME namesake. 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. Lavender, Aeon Khronos, Dio, Mark Keaton, Jordan Sharpe, Nevaeh, Lorenzo, Narumi Tsutsumi, Faith Rivers, Saidie Sharpe, Silas Isaac Naberius, Dalilah Ashe, Megumi, Aiya, Scorpio, Jamie Love, Sarahe Gemini, Zander Zak Keaton, Ethan Turner, Eddie Dozier, Erica Marie, KU and HAYAHIKO are all featured.

We also get some extra footage of the current Champions on PRIME as we see Aiya with the Showtime Broadcast Championship and then Dio holding the Indy Championship over his head.

After one final pan over the crowd, we get some shots of a few of the signs being held up by the fans ..

SCORPIO LOOKS FAT IN THOSE PANTS

DIO CLIMBS FASTER WITH THREE LEGS

CHRIS BROCK IS A PUNK ASS BITCH

NARUMI CAN TSUT-SUE ME

LET'S GO SAIDIE!

PRIME > PARAMOUNT

The camera centers on ringside at the SEC Centre, fans stand up, pumping their fists and cheering. One last round of fireworks blast out now, and we turn our attention to Marshall Evans and Hayley Kushnir ..

Evans: Hello, everyone! And welcome to World Wide Three! I am Marshall Evans...

Kushnir: And I am Hayley Kushnir. It feels great to be back in Scotland for another World Wide event! This year we do not have a Crazy Train match, but there is SO much that we are looking forward to that can, and will, likely top the extravaganza that was World Wide Two!

Evans: In our Main Event tonight, Dio will step into the ring for the first time since Prime 79, when he defeated Nevaeh in the only match that he has had since winning the Indy Championship at StrangleMania. And he will defend the Indy Championship against Silas Isaac Naberius, also known as S.I.N.

Kushnir: And the Indy Championship will be high above the ring with the only way to win the match being to climb the ladder and capture the Championship! It's a good old fashioned Ladder Match!

Evans: But that is only one of three Championship matches! We will also see the EWC Tag Team Champions, The Southern Express, put their titles on the line in a STEEL CAGE!

Kushnir: But the provision is that there will be no escape from the cage allowed. If The Young Lions want to walk away as the Tag Team Champions, they will have to pin or submit Jimmy Lane or Bobby Rose!

Evans: And, Hayley. The Southern Express are closing in on history. A win tonight will give them more successful defenses of any time in modern EWC history. And it will get them one step closer to a full year as Champions, something no other team has been able to do in recent history.

Kushnir: Very exciting stuff. In our third Championship match, the "Headhuntress" Aiya will take on Remarkable Mark Keaton, defending her Showtime Broadcast Championship for the third time. 

Evans: Remarkable Mark showed his Remarkability at the last Prime when he defeated the dynamic Lavender. Surely, that catapulted him into this match.

Kushnir: Very likely. But Aiya took down Megumi to keep the Showtime Broadcast Championship. If she wants to remain as Champion, she will have to do so on the big stage at World Wide!

Evans: In a blood feud that has been building for months, KU and Saidie Sharpe will do battle inside of the Castlebridge Colliery Mine. This one may be both terrific and horrific at the same time!

Kushnir: You've got that right. Saidie Sharpe has proven to have a bit of a vicious side. We cannot count her out of this, but KU is on another level. This one should be very good.

Evans: Oh, and let's not forget... it's a Last Person Standing Match! In order to win, your opponent must be unable to answer a ten count!

Kushnir: Speaking of feuds, things have absolutely boiled over between Nevaeh and Sarahe Gemini. We saw both of them find involvement in each other's matches two weeks ago! This one will be settled once and for all as they go head-to-head in a No Disqualification Match!

Evans: We will also have a little more tag team action! On one side of the ring, you've got an established team who have been together for literally forever. The Texas Angels hope to bounce back from some not-so-favorable losses as of late.

Kushnir: But it will not be easy, Marshall. Their opponents may not be a tag team by any means, but they are both insane and sadistic. Former EWC Undisputed Champion, United States Champion, and Tag Team Champion Scorpio will team up with one of the lowest scums of the earth in Eddie Dozier!

Evans: And finally, probably the match I have most been waiting for. We will begin this evening with the return of the PRIMETime Briefcase! It's a fourway ladder match between "Miss America" Erica Marie, Ethan "ET" Turner, Lavender, and Narumi Tsutsumi!

Kushnir: And the person who secures the briefcase will have a contract for an instant Indy Championship Match at any point for the rest of the 22nd Season!

Evans: We've got a TON of action here tonight! We've got to take a quick break for a word from EWCTV and when we come back... it's PRIMETime!

The camera once again pans the sold-out crowd here in Glasgow as we transition to the parking-lot before the usual EWCTV commercial.

Cutting to the front of the arena, stern-faced Narumi Tsutsumi and Megumi are shown taking standing dojo bows towards the arena. They then take standing bows towards each other before speaking.

Megumi: GANBARU! (Translation: Persist/Persevere)

Narumi: OSS! (Translation: Confirmation/Yes)

Both girls break out in adorable smiles and Megumi pats Narumi on the back as Narumi runs excitedly into the arena.

Megumi lingers for a moment before taking a large bite of her patented onigiri rice balls. Gripping her wooden katana tightly, she runs off after Narumi. We then cut to the EWCTV commercial.

PRIMETIME BRIEFCASE LADDER MATCH
"Miss America" Erica Marie
Vs Ethan "ET" Turner
Vs Lavender
Vs Narumi Tsutsumi
WINNER WILL BE ABLE TO CASH IN THE PRIMETIME BRIEFCASE AT ANY POINT IN SEASON 22 FOR AN INDY CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH
Match Writer: @daviddunham

We return to ringside where commentary is standing by.

Evans: Well folks, we're in for a wild night from the start as four competitors look to climb the ladder to success! We've seen this match precisely one time in the past, and here's hoping whoever wins this can make better use of the prize!

Reid: The following contest is a ladder match, and it is for the PRIMETime Briefcase! Joining us first, from Orlando, Florida, weighing in at 115-pounds ... She is Miss America ... ERICA MARIE!

"American Girl" by Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers starts to play and Erica Marie heads on down to the ring. She's full of energy and enthusiasm, warming up the fans as she makes her way to the squared circle. She poses for the audience before heading to her corner to await the start of the match.

Reid: And her opponent, from Indianapolis, Indiana, weighing in at 180-pounds ... ETHAN TURNER!

"What Would You Say" hits the PA, then we see Ethan walking out from the back. A big smile crosses his face as he walks down the ramp, giving high-fives to fans before sliding into the ring and getting ready for the match.

Reid: And their opponent, weighing 132-pounds ... LAVENDER!

The lights go out as 'Imaginary' by Evanescence begins to play. The lights flash in time to the guitar riff. The song kicks into its first verse as smoke billows from behind the curtains and a spotlight shined down upon the center of the stage. When the chorus kicks in the lights come back on and out walks Lavender. She looks out across the crowd as the crowd erupts into cheer. A smile creeps across her face as she embraces their warm welcome. Lavender begins to make her way down to the ring. As Lavender reaches ringside she walks over to the steel steps, walks up them and enters the ring before climbing the nearest turnbuckle and holding her arms up high in the air. Lavender steps down from the turnbuckle and waits for the match to commence.

Reid: And their opponent, from Shinjuku, Japan, weighing 115-pounds ... 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.

Evans: Here we go folks, we're in for a treat!

DING DING DING

As evidenced by the looks on their faces, these four competitors know what's at stake. Ladders are set up all around ringside and it looks like our match is set to begin! As soon as the bell sounds, all four break off into pairs and the action is underway. Erica Marie heads straight for Ethan Turner, attempting to catch him off-guard with a Running Crossbody, but E.T. catches her and throws her to the mat with a Scoop Slam. Lavender and Narumi trade Knife Edge Chops back and forth, but Lavender slips in a knee to Narumi's abdomen. DDT by Lavender. Lavender hurries to her feet and turns in time to get met with a Flying Headscissors Takedown by E.T. Erica Marie's back on her feet, and it's a Drop Toe Hold on a charging Ethan Turner!

Narumi with a Roundhouse Kick on Erica! Lavender now going for a Suplex on Narumi, but the latter slides off and lands behind her. Narumi spins Lavender around and goes to work with a series of strikes, hitting hard and fast. A devastating right hand causes Lavender to spin around, clenching her jaw... as Erica pulls her to the mat with a Hip Toss. Narumi grabs Erica from behind. German Suplex! Ethan charges over to Tsutsumi, but she ducks beneath his outstretched arm. She runs and rebounds off the ropes... Superman Punch from Narumi! Ethan crashes to the mat and rolls out of the ring. Narumi rolls out as well, now looking to grab a ladder to bring inside the ring.

Evans: The chaos is already evident here tonight, and it looks like Narumi's the first one with a ladder on her mind!

Kushnir: Things are gonna get real violent real quick when that ladder comes into play!

Erica Marie and Lavender are locked up inside the ring. Lavender with an impressive Michinoku Driver! Erica rolls over to the edge of the ring and rests beneath the ropes as Lavender slides out and grabs the ladder Narumi was working on closing and slipping into the ring. The two women seem to be having a bit of a disagreement as to who should do it. They go back and forth pushing the ladder into each other, then attempting to pull it away. Ethan recollects himself and heads over to join the women. He pushes Lavender out of the way and grabs the ladder from Narumi. Narumi lets go as Ethan gives the ladder an extra-strong yank, and Ethan goes stumbling back, ladder in possession.

Meanwhile Erica's rebounded off the ropes and running toward them... She soars through the middle and top ropes and collides into Narumi Tsutsumi on the outside with a Suicide Dive! The fans give Erica a pop. Ethan shoves the ladder in the ring and rolls in after it, but Lavender has him by the ankle. She pulls Ethan out of the ring and connects with a Back Body Slam! Lavender in the ring now, alone, and she starts setting up the ladder in the middle, directly underneath the PRIMETime Briefcase. Erica Marie hurries in just as Lavender starts to climb up. Erica climbs up the opposite side of the ladder and soon both ladies are trading hands back and forth, high up above the ring, trying to knock each other off! Narumi and Ethan are quick to involve themselves, briefly working together to shove the ladder over. Lavender and Erica are sent crashing to the mat!

Evans: Oh no! Lavender and Erica look completely out of it after that crash landing!

Kushnir: And it looks like Narumi and Turner are going right back at it!

Narumi and E.T. go back to squaring off. Tsutsumi with a flurry of strikes, causing Ethan to stagger. Wait! Leg Lariat from Ethan causes Narumi to go down. Ethan's getting powered up! Rolling Thunder on Narumi before she can get back to her feet. Ethan grabs the ladder and starts setting it up again as Lavender and Erica work on pulling themselves up and getting back to it. Ethan, seeing all three competitors returning to their feet, abandons the ladder and grabs a hold of Lavender by the arm. He whips her into the ropes, but she reverses! E.T. grabs the top rope and catapults himself onto the ring apron. Lavender charges at him, trying to knock him off, but Ethan hops off the apron. Lavender grabs the ropes and balances herself. She tells Ethan to stay out of the ring... As Erica, who has climbed up the turnbuckle, sends herself flying through the air, connecting with a God Bless America on Ethan at ringside! They both tumble to the floor as the fans explode into cheers and a chant that 'This is awe-some!' begins.

Lavender turns around in time to get a knee to the midsection from Narumi! Lavender gets whipped into the corner. Corner Splash from Narumi! Lavender sinks into a sitting position as Narumi quickly speeds up the ladder toward the briefcase. Erica is just barely recovering from her recent flight through the air, but it doesn't look like she'll be up in time to stop Narumi! But it's okay, because Lavender's back to her feet now! She's climbing up the ladder behind Narumi! Narumi tries to shove Lavender off the ladder with her boot, but Lavender connects with a few hard hits to Narumi's back. Lavender is now standing directly behind Narumi near the top of the ladder. Oh my! No! Don't do it, Lavender! German Suplex! German Suplex by Lavender and Narumi almost lands on her freakin' head! The fans are chanting 'holy shit!' Holy shit indeed! That was unbelievable!

Evans: Narumi very nearly in a bad way there, in what's been a crazy bout thus far!

Kushnir: All four of these competitors have been through the ringer tonight, but it looks like Lavender's starting to get some momentum!

Lavender's pulling herself up with the help of the ropes as Erica rolls into the ring. Narumi isn't moving much at the moment, but it looks like she's breathing at least! That really was one hell of a German Suplex, from off the ladder! We see another replay of it as Lavender and Erica slowly make their way up the ladder on either side. Ethan's starting to stir on the outside of the ring. Narumi rolls over onto her stomach and pushes herself up off the mat. Erica and Lavender are trading punches back and forth, both looking groggy and almost like they could fall off the ladder at any time.

Narumi's climbing up the ladder underneath Lavender. She's positioning herself to give Lavender a Powerbomb! No doubt this is payback for what Lavender did just a little while ago! Ethan rolls into the ring and climbs up behind Erica! He grabs a hold of her, positioning her on top of his shoulders... And he falls back! Erica and Ethan go crashing to the mat as Narumi Powerbombs Lavender off the ladder! The roof inside The SEC Centre could blow right off at any time if the fans aren't careful!

Evans: Oh my, look at that impact! That powerbomb was the exclamation point on a statement of violence, and now everyone is completely spent!

Kushnir: This has been an insane way to kick off World Wide III, to say the least!

All four athletes are laid out on the mat, exhausted and beat up. It may be whoever's able to get to their feet first that's gonna climb the ladder and pull down the briefcase. We might have a winner here soon, but who's it going to be? It's obvious that all four of these awesome athletes have been willing to do whatever it takes thus far! Slowly but surely, we see two come to their feet...Narumi and Ethan. The wear and tear evident on their bodies as we see Ethan reset the ladder that's still in the ring.

The two trade blows, with Ethan getting the upper hand as he sends Narumi to the corner before making his way up the ladder. What Ethan doesn't catch is Narumi quickly making her way up the other side, fighting the pain she's in to stay ahead of the curve as she starts trading punches with Ethan at the top! Ethan starts to get the advantage power wise, but all it takes is one more well-timed punch from Narumi to send Ethan crashing to the canvas. With Lavender and Erica still down, Narumi gets the opportunity to carefully pull the PRIMEtime Briefcase off the hook, bringing an end to this insane match!

DING DING DING

Reid: Here is your winner, earning a future title shot with the PRIMEtime Briefcase ... NARUMI TSUTSUMI!!!

Narumi barely has the energy to celebrate however, falling to the canvas with the briefcase in her hand. Eventually, the ref raises her hand in victory as we cut back to commentary.

Evans: What a wild ride we just went on, Hayley! All four competitors really gave it their all for that prize, but now we have a winner in Narumi Tsutsumi who now has an opportunity in her back pocket so to speak!

Kushnir: Congrats to Narumi and kudos to everyone else in this match, I think people are gonna be talking about this for a while!

Evans: And this night has only begun! In just a moment we'll be seeing Scorpio teaming up with Eddie Dozier to take on the Texas Angels!

Camera cuts to backstage, where you can tell just by the noise that Tommy Love is somewhere close by...

The scene cuts backstage where Xavier Reid is seen walking down the hallway with ‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love, who is all smiles.

Love: It’s nice to be back where it all started, here at Prime where the EWC got to know good old Tommy Love, I took Killjoy to the top of this place and these guys should be rolling out the red carpet for me tonight, if Prime had their own Hall of Fame ‘The Memphis Mouthpiece’ Tommy Love would be a first ballot Hall of Famer…

Tommy smiles even wider as he looks at Xavier who nods, not really interested in what his manager is saying. He looks down a side hallway as they pass, as if he’s looking for someone but as he turns his head back it seems someone has found them, Prime’s Jenna Salvatore.

Salvatore: Gentlemen, you seem lost?

Tommy laughs at her

Love: Why, because we are ‘Brawl’ guys, you realize I also manage Samantha Hamilton, wouldn’t that also make me a ‘Rampage’ guy...add to that The Xtreme Ravagers are an official tag team and aren’t tag teams apart of ALL the brands?

Tommy looks at Jenna as if he’s ‘got her’ but she shakes her head

Salvatore: No, seriously you two look lost, can I help you find something?

She looks more at Xavier, who just shakes his head no

Reid: We are fine Jenna, just taking a look around...for Samantha…

Clearly that wasn’t true, Tommy looks over at him

Love: She’s on the phone, we just left…

Xavier looks at him and he get it and shuts his mouth quickly

Reid: Seems like that clears things up, she’s on the phone…

Jenna however isn’t buying it

Salvatore: Ok then, well as we saw on the World Wide III Freeshow The Xtreme Ravagers are here in Glasgow, Scotland to ‘scout’ the Texas Angels and…

Reid: To support our fellow Love Club members here tonight in the Tag Team Championship match…

Love: And put the winning team on notice that The Xtreme Ravagers will be coming for them…

Salvatore: And maybe...just maybe to get inside the head of one Jamie Love…

Xavier slowly smiles as Tommy tries and deflect that claim

Love: Wait right there, now listen we aren’t here to mess with anyone. I know Bobby and Jimmy don’t want this match tainted in any way, win or lose. They want this match to be fair and called right down the middle and we...WE ALL respect that. We will not get involved in any way tonight that could take away this historic night for whichever team wins…

Salvatore: You know Jamie is doing all this just so you...his father notices him right?

Tommy smiles and shakes his head

Love: I’m not taking sides out there tonight, listen Jamie is my son and I wish him the best tonight but he’s facing his half sister, Bunny and I am wishing the best for her as well, PLUS Bobby and Jimmy are two of my best friends, they are trying to break a EWC record tonight, they have come so far in this past year...I can’t root against them, or for them as it seems. Jenna, I'm an innocent bystander here tonight at World Wide III…

Jenna nods and looks at Xavier

Salvatore: And what about you Xavier…

Xavier smiles

Reid: I’m staying out of it...but if Jamie is watching, good luck kid...break a leg out there…

Xavier chuckles as he walks away from Jenna as Tommy looks at him and then at Jenna

Salvatore: You might not want to let him out of your sight Tommy...something tells me he’s not going to be a bystander here tonight…

Love: He’s fine...we’re fine...The Love Club is fine!!!

But something on Tommy’s face tells us things aren’t fine as he runs after Xavier

TAG TEAM MATCH
Eddie Dozier & Scorpio
Vs Texas Angels
Match Writer: Dominic Sanders

Evans: Well that was strange .. It's time to march on, Hayley. We've got possibly the most random tag team match I've ever seen on Prime coming up.

Kushnir: And that's saying a lot. We've had some weird ones.

Evans: But Eddie Dozier and Scorpio teaming up to take on the father-daughter duo of the Texas Angels? Well, we know Eddie Dozier's thoughts on that.

Kushnir: I do not like Eddie Dozier, but he did make some interesting revelations earlier in the week.

Evans: But that's not what we are here for. Our job is not to speculate, but to spectate and commentate.

Kushnir: You done, sweetheart?

Evans: I am only just getting started! Let's go to Damon Reid in the ring!

Reid: The following tag team contest is scheduled for one fall!

"Folsom Prison Blues" by Home Free blares over the sound system as Alexander Samson and Orion Wentworth makes their way out onto the stage. They lift their arms into the air before marching down the ramp.

Reid: Introducing first... weighing in at a combined 386 pounds... Alexander Samson and Orion Wentworth... the TEXAS ANGELS!

They slide into the ring and pose on the turnbuckles while singing along with the song.

Evans: These two haven't had the amount of success that they had hoped for since returning from a year away.

Kushnir: And it's not going to get easier. Eddie Dozier is a jerk, but he's a dangerous jerk. And Scorpio is a former Undisputed Champion. We saw both of them win on Prime two weeks ago. Texas Angels have to be on their A game to steal a win tonight.

Images of rain falling on cement are seen on the X-Tron as "Raining Blood" by Slayer begins to play. When the guitar riffs begin, the lights in the arena turn yellow. Eddie Dozier steps out from the back to a loud chorus of boos. Dozier has a look of disgust on his face as he bends down and starts rocking back and forth.

As Dozier stretches out his arms and wipes down his vest, he calmly walks down to the ring, ignoring all of the haters.

Reid: Their opponents, first from Louisville, Kentucky! Weighing in at 255 pounds... He is the Bad Boy of Prime... EDDIE DOZIER!

Dozier smirks at the rowdy boos when his name is announced. He climbs up onto the apron and enters the ring through the ropes. He walks around the ring and yells out into the crowd as they boo louder. With a smirk, he steps into the corner to wait for his partner.

Kushnir: I really cannot stand this guy. He's detestable. I can't stand his face or his attitude.

Evans: Harsh words, Hayl! Cool the engines a bit, babe. Eddie isn't THAT bad. I mean, you're the one who signed his contract when he came back last month.

Kushnir: It was YOUR idea to bring him back.

Evans: Regardless, he's put the Texas Angels on notice that tonight they will be picked apart and ended. Let's see if he and his partner can back those words up.

'Rule Britannia' hits the speakers as red, white, and blue lighting flashes around the arena. The crowd begin to boo loudly as the imagine of a waving Union Jack is displayed on the X-Tron. Superimposed on this is the message "Please be upstanding for your Prime Minister". After a little while the orchestral music fades down...

Reid: And his partner .. please welcome, from London, England, weighing in at 205 lbs... 'The People's Camp', 'The Baddest Bitch On The Planet', 'The Prime Minister'... 'THE S-FACTOR' SCORPIO!

'Iconic' - Madonna feat. Chance The Rapper hits the speakers as the house lights go down, switching to a spotlight focused on the curtain. It parts, revealing 'The S-Factor' Scorpio stood behind, a hand on his hip cutting a beautiful silhouette. He sashays forward, a long coat dripping in jewels swaying with every step. Behind him steps Crème de la Crème, Scorpio's drag queen confidant and manager. The two look to one another and nod, before Scorpio opens his coat and drops it to the floor, revealing another stunning outfit. He steps down the ramp with a confident strut, emulating that of the catwalk models of Paris and Milan, before reaching the ring. Scorpio climbs up one set of steps as Crème climbs the other, parting the ropes to allow 'The S-Factor'' in. Stepping into the middle of the ring Scorpio raises one arm, and blows a kiss with the other, a smile forming on his beautifully made-up face.

DING DING DING

Dozier and Wentworth start the match off. Wentworth immediately slaps Dozier in the face. Dozier takes exception and charges her. She ducks underneath him and he turns around right into a spinning heel kick. He drops to the mat. She lunges down at him and drills him in the temple with a hard forearm. She covers him.

ONE!
.
.
.
Kickout by Dozier.

Evans: It's going to take a lot more than that to win this match, Hayley.

Kushnir: I hope she smothers him all match long. You heard the stuff Dozier said to her and her dad.

Wentworth gets up and grabs Dozier by the chin, lifting him to his knees. She lines him up and drills him in the jaw with a swift kick. She reaches over and tags in Alexander Samson. Samson leaps over the top rope and smoothly into a bulldog on Dozier. He gets up to his feet and runs, bouncing off of the ropes. He drills Dozier in the side of the head with a baseball slide. Dozier's body rolls and he falls out of the ring and to the floor. Scorpio rolls his eyes over on the ring apron as the referee begins to count. Samson exits the ring and goes immediately after Dozier. Wentworth drops off of the apron and Samson holds Dozier's arms back behind his back. Wentworth goes in to smack Dozier right in the cheek again, but Dozier kicks Wentworth in the stomach. He breaks Samson's grip and hip-tosses him onto the floor. The referee's count is now up to four. Dozier grabs Wentworth by the hair and tosses her hard into the ring post. Dozier rolls underneath the bottom rope and gets up to his feet. The referee breaks his count and gets in Dozier's face. Dozier scoffs at him and backs into his corner, reaching out and tagging Scorpio into the match.

Evans: Here comes the S-Factor! And he has been in one bad mood, as of late.

Scorpio walks over to the corner and begins to climb the ropes. He reaches the top turnbuckle and stretches his arms out wide. His gear shimmers and sparkles in the lights. Half of the crowd boos and the other half oohs. As Alexander Samson gets to his feet, Scorpio leaps off with a high cross-body! He crashes down hard on Samson on the outside. The crowd gives an appreciative clap to Scorpio as he looks at them disdainfully. He gets up to his feet and reaches down, grabbing Samson and rolling him back into the ring. Scorpio hops up onto the apron. He steps through the ropes and then sticks the heel of his Louboutin boot right on Samson's cheek. The referee counts and gets to four before Scorpio lightens up and removes his boot. Scorpio slinks down into a casual cover.

ONE!
.
.
.
TWO!!
.
.
Kickout.

Scorpio shoots the referee a look before returning his attention to Samson. Scorpio pushes Samson back into the ropes and goes to Irish-whip him across the ring. Orion blind-tags Samson. Scorpio didn't see it. Samson goes across the ring. He hooks himself onto the top rope with both elbows. Scorpio is surprised by a Cosmo Smash to the back of the head by Wentworth! Wentworth covers!

ONE!
.
.
.
TWO!!
.
.
.
Broken up by Eddie Dozier!

Evans: That was EXTREMELY close!

Kushnir: Very close, indeed!

All four are in the ring, now. Dozier and Samson are going at it. Wentworth has Scorpio, the legal participants, up to his feet. She is looking for the Nerd Down. She lives Scorpio up, but Scorpio anchors down. He shoves Orion off of him and then drills her with a superkick in the chin. Samson has Dozier in the corner and is perched up top, drilling Eddie with a 10 count of punches. Scorpio turns his attention to Samson. He waits for Samson to hop off of the turnbuckles. Scorpio springboards into a DDT! "You're Going Down-ing Street!" Scorpio sees Wentworth beginning to stir. He bounces off of the ropes and drills her with the Brexit Means Brexit! He covers Orion!

ONE!
.
.
.
TWO!!
.
.
.
THRE-NO! KICKOUT BY WENTWORTH!

Evans: That was one of the closest three counts that I have seen in my entire life!

Kushnir: Me too, Marshall!

Scorpio, very frustrated, gets off of Wentworth. He reaches over and tags Dozier, who is now on the apron, back into the match. Dozier gets into the ring and grabs Samson. He lifts him up into a delayed piledriver. Scorpio grabs Samson's legs and spikes him into the mat. Dozier kicks Samson under the bottom rope and to the floor. He walks over to Wentworth, who tries to punch him in the stomach. Dozier lifts Wentworth up into the air onto his shoulders... THE END! Scorpio smirks, extends his arm out and stomps his foot demanding to be tagged back in. Dozier shakes his head debating making the cover, but finally gives in after the foot stomping gets overly aggressive and loud and agrees to tag Scorpio in. Scorpio pulls Orion up and AGR!!! Scorpio covers Orion with a massive smile on his face.

ONE!
.
.
.
TWO!!
.
.
.
THREE!!!

DING DING DING

Reid: Here are your winners... the team of EDDIE DOZIER & SCORPIO!

Evans: Big win for Dozier and Scorpio, Hayley. Those two could make for a very dangerous Tag Team.

Kushnir: I hate seeing Eddie Dozier win stuff. Texas Angels fought hard. I would have liked to have seen them win that match. I'm sure the Texas Angels will be primed for another opportunity to prove they belong in the tag team division. 

Evans: Don't look now but it might appear that Scorpio got his groove back. He looked as fierce as ever tonight. Dozier certainly impressed also. 

Kushnir: It looks like we have Dio standing by backstage, lets see what our Indy Champion has to say. 

The scene transitions over to the backstage area where our Indy Champion is standing by.

The crowd is still buzzing from the previous match between the Texas Angels and the unlikely pairing of Eddie Dozier and Scorpio, but the buzz soon turns to a roar as the camera focuses on the current Indy champion. Dio stands backstage in the dark as an almost eerie calm settles over him.

Dio: So tonight is the night. Where philosophy meets SIN, in the age old debate of who is right. How long have the debates raged on between philosophy and religion? How many centuries have seen blood shed all across not just Europe…. But the entire world in the name of proving which theory is superior? Men have been exiled, and women killed, for far less.

His voice sounds humble, and as the camera pans back a hair… the shadow of a ladder now casts itself over the warrior poet.

Dio: Tonight, the war between philosophy and sin ends. Once upon a time we thought we may be able to coexist, its become very clear over the past few weeks that S.I.N has no intentions of existing alongside the philosopher… He wants to do what every other religious zealot does, to conquer anything that questions this authority and to ascend onto the golden throne. But Silas… that’s not Prime’s destiny.

He turns his back to the camera, hands grasped on either side of the ladder frame. As he speaks, the lights seem to catch little more than the growing whiteness of his knuckles.

Dio: You want to talk about destiny? Destiny was watching Nevaeh walk out of last World Wide with my Television championship because I wasn’t prepared enough to keep hold of it. Destiny was losing the championship scramble at Parabellum because fate knew I wasn’t ready to take on the mantle of champion again. And at Stranglemania I made my own destiny. I didn’t sit back and wait for fate to take the wheel, to guide me to the place it wanted me to be. I didn’t sit back and be patient because eventually destiny would grace me with the championship I wanted. That’s what the Age of Enlightenment is all about, and if you’re going to sit back and just casually assume destiny is in your favor tonight? Then allow me to enlighten you, because sitting back and waiting in the Age of Enlightenment? Is only going to leave you sitting around on Prime and picking at new tag team partners every couple of weeks, while I stand tall

He slams the two sides of the ladder closed, the metal clanging and echoing through the room before he pointedly finishes his sentence.

Dio: Atop the ladder.

The ladder somehow manages to remain upright while closed, as the cameras fade to black and we return ringside for the upcoming No Disqualifications match between Nevaeh and Sarahe Gemini.

NO DISQUALIFICATION MATCH
Nevaeh
Vs Sarahe Gemini
Match Writer: Samantha "Titaness" Hamilton

We return to ringside where the ring is being prepared for the No Disqualification match. The referees are doing one last look over as we cut to the commentary table.

Evans: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to World Wide Three! We just finished watching Eddie Dozier and Scorpio team up to face The Texas Angels. We're now about to see a No Disqualification Match between Nevaeh and Sarahe Gemini play out. Anyone with young children may wanna keep them from watching this, it is gonna very likely get bloody and brutal. Reid! Take us away to introductions!

Once "Gasoline" by Porcelain and the Tramps is heard, Nevaeh comes walking out from the back to a chorus of boos. But judging by the smile on her face she doesn't seem to mind. As she makes her way down the aisle, Nevaeh does her best not to let anyone touch her along the way.

Reid: The following match is a singles No Disqualification Match! Coming to the ring at this time from Las Vegas, Nevada, this is ... NEEEEAVEAHHHHHH!

After walking up on the ring apron, Nevaeh strikes a pose and give her backside a little shake before stepping between the ropes. Once inside, she mouths off to the fans and paces the ring a bit as she waits for the match to begin.

Guitars echo throughout the arena as red spotlights flood the stage.A figure with hair as black as night steps onto the stage. The rest of the arena is darkened as the main song cuts in.

Reid: Making her way to the ring...she currently resides in the seventh circle of Hell...the Red Queen SARAHE GEMINI!

Pyros hit and "Scream" by New Years' Day begins to play, as Sarahe cocks her head up just enough to flash her brown eyes. Stepping down the ramp, staring at the ring, the cries to her are ignored while she adjusts the black and white tape on her wrists. Rolling slowly into the ring, she looks around the arena before pulling her mask off quickly, letting out a scream and leaning against the ropes before the music dies down.

Evans: These two have been wanting to kick each others' asses! Now they're gonna get that opportunity! Time to see who kicks harder!

DING DING DING

Both women barely wait for the third bell. But they do, and when it rings, they charge straight for each other. Sarahe smacks Nevaeh's face with a Yakuza kick while Nevaeh closes the gap between them and lunges forward, Spearing right into Gemini. Both are now down and exchanging punches towards each other. When they see that this isn't giving them the best possible advantage, both women move away from each other, panting and glaring daggers at one another.

Sarahe goes for a Straight Right Hand Punch to Nevaeh's face, but she's not having any of that. She grabs the right arm and pulls Gemini into a Seated Fujiwara Armbar! Gemini is screaming and wincing in pain, which only fuels Nevaeh on to keep her grip tight. A full minute just barely ticks by before the ref insists Nevaeh has to let go. She demands to be given a damn good reason, and the ref points back!

Through sheer will and determination, Gemini just barely managed to get her foot on one of the ropes.

The sight makes Nevaeh click her tongue and, reluctantly, let go.

Right as Sarahe gets up, she hits Nevaeh with a Scissor Kick, screaming profanities while simultaneously standing proudly, showing that despite the damage done, she is nowhere close to giving up.

Evans: Gemini showing the fight she has going into this, she's looking to make a big statement in this no disqualification match!

Kushnir: Right, and speaking of...it looks like we're seeing that come into play sooner rather than later!

The two merely nod at each other, seeming to silently agree that now is the time for weapons. Sarahe begins untying the cover from the turnbuckle near her to expose it. Nevaeh, meanwhile, digs underneath the ring. The crowd cheers and sure enough, we see she has Heaven's Helper in her hands!

Nevaeh doesn't wait for Sarahe to finish getting the turnbuckle exposed; she runs forward, seeming hellbent on smashing her head in right then and there! Gemini grimaces, but lets go and jumps away from where she was working.

Somewhat thankfully for her, Heaven's Helper helps remove the last bits of padding for her. Gemini smirks as she notices this and turns her full attention to the sledgehammer-wielding woman.

Gemini moves in a slow, cautious circle, trying to find an opening or way to attack Nevaeh without getting hit by Heaven's Helper. Suffice to say, it's a much easier said than done task to achieve, particularly when everytime she almost finds her cue, Nevaeh rushes forward.

To make matters worse, on the third swing, Nevaeh does succeed in hitting Sarahe with her weapon. Nevaeh's target she aimed for? Sarahe's right shoulder.

Nevaeh drops the sledgehammer, feeling confident enough she can finish the rest of this match without her trusted weapon. She slips behind Gemini and throws her over with a German Suplex, adding a bridge pin afterwards.

ONE!

TWO!!

Gemini manages to kick out. Nevaeh shakes her head, smirking smugly towards Sarahe.

Evans: Wow, that took a lot out of Sarahe but she's still got grit!

Kushnir: I'm really starting to think this can go either way!

Sarahe goes for yet another Straight Right Hand Punch. Nevaeh raises an eyebrow, as if asking what the hell Gemini thinks she's doing. The answer comes at literally the last second ... it was a feint! She shifts to her left and sneaks a Chin Check (Spinning Back Fist) technique in!

The move dazes Nevaeh long enough for Gemini to follow up with Reconstruction (Roundhouse Kick)! Sarahe grabs Nevaeh by the hair, making her lay on the apron. She, herself, stands on it mere paces away, only to eventually run forward ....

Penalty Kick on the apron!

Even with her right shoulder having been hit by Heaven's Helper, Sarahe is refusing to let Nevaeh literally push her around. Gemini is screaming down at Nevaeh, chuckling all the while as she stares down at her opponent.

As Gemini finds Heaven's Helper, she nods, seeming to know what she wants to do next. She saunters over towards it. Right as she grabs the handle, though, Nevaeh's hand lands on top of her own.

After a slight back and forth battle over who wins possession of the sledgehammer, it slips out of both womens' hands, landing outside the ring.

Nevaeh seems fine enough with this, though Gemini looks irked her plan got ruined. Nevaeh gets up, albeit somewhat shakily, and takes Sarahe down with a Snap Suplex! Neither women are refusing to give up, and the audience is loving what they're seeing so far!

Evans: These women are digging in deep to get the advantage now, what will it take for one of them to outlast the other?

Kushnir: We may soon find out, look!

Sarahe hurries out of the ring. Nevaeh laughs, thinking she's running away and allowing herself to get counted out. We soon see, though, that's not at all what Gemini is doing. If anything, she's getting her own weapon - her mask! Nevaeh rolls her eyes, not seeming to believe it can be even the least bit useful.

Sarahe smirks at her reply as she gets back in the ring. She swings her mask at Nevaeh's face ... and pushes hard against it! Some of the spikes do indeed break skin, causing Nevaeh to scream as she begins to bleed from the spikes.

Nevaeh frantically kicks Gemini away, but the mask is still embedded in her flesh. Not all the way, thankfully, but far enough that pulling it out is going to be painful. She grips on her lower lip, mentally preparing herself for the worst, and yanks it out.

Fortunately, the mask was more so in her cheek area as opposed to near the eyes.

Still, Nevaeh is not happy with what Gemini just did to her. She reaches into her pocket, retrieving the railroad spike and charges for Sarahe. Sarahe tries to avoid the enraged Nevaeh, but she isn't allowing Gemini to get away. Nevaeh angrily grabs onto Sarahe's left shoulder while slamming the spike right into Sarahe's right shoulder!

Now it's Nevaeh's turn to grin while her opponent is screaming in pain and agony.

Evans: Nevaeh looking like she's fully in control now!

Kushnir: This could end very badly for Sarahe if she's not careful!

Like a shark smelling blood, Nevaeh can sense the end is near, and is more than eager to end this fight. She slams Sarahe onto the canvas. She then rolls Gemini onto her stomach while keeping a firm grip on her legs. Gemini understands what's happening, and fights against it. But eventually, Nevaeh locks it in! Exile (PTO)!

Sarahe squirms and struggles, but each attempt results in more blood flowing from her shoulder. Her eyes begin to flutter and eventually, she goes still. The referee raises her arms once .... twice ... three times. It never raises up, so he calls for the bell, putting an end to the match.

DING DING DING

Reid: And your winner, via knockout submission ... NEEEEAVEAHHHHHH!!!

Nevaeh laughs as she lets go of Sarahe, allowing her to collapse onto the canvas. She soaks in the glory from her win, but not for as long as usual. She exits the ring, first grabbing the spike out of Sarahe's shoulder, then Heaven's Helper. She saunters backstage, likely to get patched up herself. Medical staff hurry out and begin checking up on a still unconscious Sarahe Gemini as we cut back to commentary.

Evans: Holy cow! We knew it would be brutal and bloody, but I'm not sure if anyone was expecting these exact degrees.

Kushnir: Sarahe really gave it her all, but in the end, our one and only Nevaeh emerged victorious. No doubt Nevaeh is happy to regain some momentum after her recent loss to Saidie Sharpe.

Evans: Shhh, don't let her hear you reminding her about that. Nevaeh is still probably very sour about that. Regardless, up next we have the first championship bout of the evening as Remarkable Mark Keaton takes on the Headhuntress herself, as Aiya defends the Showtime Broadcast Championship!

Camera cuts to backstage where it looks like S.I.N is standing by.

Attention turns backstage where Silas Isaac Naberius is talking to Pet. She has a clipboard in hand and is furiously writing as he dictates to her.

S.I.N: And there really needs to be elephants. I want elephants.

Pet: I'm not sure it'll be possib-

S.I.N: You'll find a way.

Jenna Salvatore shuffles nervously into view with a microphone in hand. She announces her presence by clearing her throat, causing Silas to jump. He turns with a scowl, causing her to back up, but he swiftly turns it into an uneasy smile.

S.I.N: No need for that now, Ms Savlon.

Salvatore: It's Salvatore and, sorry, but last time I saw that look on your face you nearly beat me and my production team because you were unhappy.

Silas looks up to the rafters for a moment before apparently remembering. He smiles fondly.

S.I.N: Ah yes, the dark times when the now-demoted Marshall Evans was running things. Back when I wasn't rightfully proclaimed the number one contender. It was a rough time for us all, Jemma, we all suffered.

Salvatore: It's Jenna.

S.I.N: I'm sorry to hear that.

She pauses, frowns, then turns back to him.

Salvatore: I was hoping to hear your thoughts as you head into this huge match with Dio tonight. You've promised so much, claimed this is your destiny, and now it all rests on this; how do you feel?

S.I.N: That's an awful lot to digest, Jimmy, but I'll do what I can with it...

Jenna frowns again as Silas begins, completely unaware.

S.I.N: The only promises I've given are those tied with that which is my destiny. I don't deal with frivolous claims, Ms Sammartino. I told you all over a year ago I would rule PRIME. StrangleMania was the rightful beginning of my reign but tonight will be my coronation.

He turns to her.

S.I.N: So how do I feel? I'm confident. I know that tonight will be the moment I've told you all about for so long now – why else would I be here? I'm dealing with a man who shows so little care for this brand he'd rather not take the time to represent it. When I finally take what is mine then PRIME will flourish under my rule.

He looks into the camera.

S.I.N: This brand is overlooked by the rest of the EWC despite its clear potential. Only under me will it rise up and take its place as the flagship of this company. For the entirety of PRIME this is either your chance to join me as I lead you towards a brighter tomorrow... or stand against me and perish.

He turns on his heel and leaves as Jenna Salvatore is left speechless as we cut back to ringside.

SHOWTIME BROADCAST CHAMPIONSHIP
Remarkable Mark Keaton
Vs "Headhuntress" Aiya
Match Writer: Emma Louise

---

Evans: Some bold statements made by Silas backstage, but now we turn our attention to the ring as Mark Keaton takes on Aiya for the Showtime Broadcast Championship! Can the Remarkable one take down the Headhuntress?

Reid: The following match, set for one fall, is for the Showtime Broadcast Championship! Joining us 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.

Reid: And the opponent, from Kyoto, Japan, weighing in at 137 pounds she is the Showtime Broadcast Champion ... HEADHUNTRESS AIYA!

As “Killer” by JJ Lin plays over the PA system, a fog appears near the curtains. As it slowly fades away, we see the form of “Headhuntress” Aiya standing at the top of the ramp. Over her right shoulder is the Showtime Broadcast Championship. She saunters down, entering the ring through the middle and top ropes. Aiya then leans against the ring, already looking as if she’s making a game plan in her head whilst waiting for for the bell to ring.

Evans: The champ looks focused and ready, but the challenger looks equally prepared for a fight!

DING DING DING

Aiya slaps Keaton hard across the face and kicks him in the gut. Aiya follows up with Forearm and Elbow Strikes that send Keaton staggering to the ropes. Aiya whips Keaton off the ropes. Keaton ducks a Clothesline before bouncing off the opposite ropes. Aiya attempts a Back Drop but Keaton slips over her and hits a couple of Snap Jabs that daze Aiya enough for Keaton to hit a Backbreaker. With Aiya on the mat, Keaton Fist Drops down on her before running off the ropes and hitting a Splash. He hooks the leg.

ONE...


TWO...


TH.....Kick Out.

Aiya gets a shoulder up breaking the count. Keaton grabs Aiya and drags her to her feet before throwing Aiya into the corner. Keaton unloads with Chops and Forearms to the chest of his opponent before dragging her face along the top rope and hitting her face into the top turnbuckle of the next corner. Keaton Irish Whips Aiya into the opposite corner with such force she ricochets out of it and knocks Keaton down with a Clothesline.

Evans: The champ taking it to the Remarkable one early!

Kushnir: Keaton's gonna need to hit a different gear to counteract that one!

Aiya is on her feet first and she hits out at Keaton with Right Hands. He absorbs a couple and blocks another before hitting Aiya with one of his own before running off the ropes. Aiya catches him with a Spinebuster. She grabs a leg and rolls onto Keaton making a cover

ONE...


TWO...


TH... Kick Out.

Keaton gets a shoulder up. Both are on their feet. Keaton lifts Aiya for a Bodyslam but, instead of slamming her down, he hits her head off the top turnbuckle and then a Powerslam. Keaton leans against the ropes and 'springs' forward dropping an Elbow. He hits the mat and nothing else as Aiya rolled out of the way. Keaton gets to his feet holding his elbow as Aiya runs at him hitting a Double Foot Stomp that sends Keaton crashing into the corner. Aiya charges but eats a Back Elbow before Keaton hits Aiya with a German Suplex that sends her smashing into the turnbuckles.

Evans: And here we go, Keaton showing some fire as he pays the champ back in spades.

Kushnir: We could very well have a new champion here!

Keaton lifts Aiya to her feet and double underhooks her arms before lifting her for a Piledriver. Aiya manages to wrap her legs around Keaton's head and Hurricanranas him into the corner. Aiya charges, again, this time Keaton moves his leg catching Aiya in the shoulder with his boot. He rolls out of the corner and runs at Aiya for a Bulldog but she pushes him out of it and off the ropes. Aiya runs at him hitting a Spear. She hooks the leg for the

ONE...


TWO...


TH..... Kick Out.

Keaton rolls onto his front breaking the count.

Evans: Wow, close one by the Headhuntress!

Kushnir: Yeah, but Keaton's still in this one!

Aiya lifts Keaton to his feet and attempts a Suplex, Keaton blocks and lifts Aiya for one but transitions it into a Falcon Arrow. As Aiya pics herself off the mat, Keaton walks toward her hitting Aiya with a Walking Big Boot with such force she ends up aginst the ropes and upside down. Keaton pulls her from the ropes and makes the cover.

ONE...


TWO...


TH..NO! KICK OUT!

Aiya just gets a shoulder off the canvas. Keaton responds with a series of Right Hands. He drags Aiya to her feet and goes for another punch. Aiya blocks it and attempts a Superkick that Keaton catches. That may be the intention as Aiya jumps hitting Keaton with an Enziguri. He slumps to the mat.

ONE...


TWO...


TH... NO! KICK OUT!

Keaton barely gets a shoulder up.

Evans: Keaton looks worn down after that last Enziguri, now showing some real tenacity!

Kushnir: How much more can he take, though?

Aiya lifts Keaton to his feet but he smashes a forearm into her gut doubling her over. Keaton uses this opportunity to lift Aiya for a Piledriver. Keaton stands for a minute looking down at his opponent. He then raises the middle finger to her and then the devil horns to the Glasgow crowd as he is ready to rock out. Keaton plays air guitar, then bounces off of the ropes, stops above his opponent, plays a few more riffs then jumps high for a big Leg Drop. He hits nothing but canvas as Aiya rolled to avoid. She rolls up Keaton before Jacknifing the cover

ONE...


TWO...


THREE!

DING DING DING

Reid: And your winner, via pinfall and STILL the Showtime Broadcast Champion ... HEADHUNTESS AIYA!!!

The referee hands Aiya the championship as confetti falls from the SECC roof. Aiya holds the championship aloft before bowing respectfully to all four sides of the ring and the fans watching from them. Behind her referees and EMTs tend to Keaton who is pointing at his left hip

Evans: What a match! Keaton took it to the champ, but Aiya manages to persevere to retain!

Kushnir: You can't help but wonder if Keaton's gonna be alright, but he definitely showed the champ he can handle the pressure!

Aiya stares down at the prone, and now very defeated, 'Remarkable' Mark Keaton. Her eyes narrow slightly as she rests her left hand on her hip. Her teeth grip slightly onto her lower lip. She nods and beckons for a mic. Her hand moves faster the longer it takes for a staff member to comply and give her what she wants. She raises the mic to her lips, letting out a disappointed sigh.

"Headhuntress" Aiya: I'm just going to keep it short and sweet. Whoever is put up against me? Do me a favor. Don't pull the same shit he did. I may have defeated Narumi to obtain this title, then defended it against Scorpio and Megumi. But you know what they all had that this prick didn't? A way better and more serious attitude towards me and their careers. So please ... whoever is next. Don't be the baka he was to me.

A sly grin spreads over her lips.

"Headhuntress" Aiya: Not unless you wanna end up in his spot. Then by all means ... tell me, and I can see about arranging something. But otherwise, no. Just no.

Aiya makes sure the Showtime Broadcast Championship stays firmly over her shoulder as she exits the arena, though not before sneaking one last glance towards 'Remarkable' Mark Keaton.

Evans: Aiya with some pointed words for the Remarkable one! Folks, in just a moment we'll be taking a look at what's happening in the Castlebridge Colliery Mine as Saidie Sharpe looks to settle a score with KU in a Last Person Standing match! But first, it seems we have an announcement coming in...

Camera cuts to the backstage area where Victor Price is standing by

As we transition to backstage, we see Victor Price standing in a custom suit, ready to address the camera

Price: I hope everyone is enjoying World Wide Three thus far, and while I hate to take away from the action in the ring, I just got confirmation on something really big, and I wanted to share it with you all right now, before that sack of monkey shit, Chris Cock goes and leaks the information again ..

Price smirks, roles his eyes and then continues

Price: June twentieth, Topsportcentrum in Rotterdam, Holland .. PRIME is going to put on a Supershow. I'm calling it MAXIMUM CARNAGE! Why? Because everyone will be fighting tooth and nail to be crowned PRIME's number one contender to the EWC Undisputed Championship. You heard that right folks, the EWC Undisputed Championship. Every person booked at PRIME number eighty-three, will be competing for the right to be our very own number one.

Price points to the dollar sign behind him

Price: Like I always say, the Price is always right! It's time for PRIME to be thrust into the spotlight. We are coming for that number one spot!

Price smirks as he walks off towards his office and our camera feed takes us to the Castlebridge Colliery. While everyone in attendance watches via the X-Tron, the viewers at home get a direct feed to the Last Person Standing Match between KU and Saidie Sharpe.

LAST PERSON STANDING MATCH
KU
Vs Saidie Sharpe
MATCH TAKES PLACE AT THE CASTLEBRIDGE COLLIERY MINE
Match Writer FN'R

It was already dark at the Castlebridge Colliery Mine when a Ford Bronco pulls up. The driver side door opens and out pops Saidie Sharpe. She eye-balls the intimidating mineshaft before grabbing a baseball bat and shutting the door. Saidie doesn’t get long to react though, as KU comes from out of the darkness and dropkicks her into the car! KU drags Saidie up by her hair and slams her head into the window, shattering it. Some payback from a few PRIME’s ago. KU drags Saidie up to her knees and knees her in the jaw before pulling her up and slamming her head on the hood of the Jeep. KU grabs a fistful of Saidie’s hair and starts dragging her into the Mineshaft.

They passed by the entrance, Saidie still fighting and kicking to be free but KU has a good hold on her hair. In her fumbling around Saidie finds a large rock and she throws it at KU’s head to knock him down. Saidie gets to her feet and advances on KU with an enziguri! KU stumbles backwards and trips over some railroad tracks, presumably for a mining cart. Saidie rushes over to KU and mounts him. She begins to rain down punches, left right, left right, left right. Over and over. KU shoves Saidie off and throws some dirt and small rocks in her face. He starts to run down the tracks. Saidie composes herself and runs after.

Saidie followed the tracks into a large open chamber, she looked around for KU but he was able to double back behind her and he brought a large shovel against the back of her head. The audible thunk as the metal met skull was awful. KU drags Saidie up by her hair and gives a stiff forearm into the base of her skull. KU keeps a grab on Saidie’s hair and he swings her around into the rock wall of the mineshaft. Saidie’s forehead gets busted open! KU spins Saidie around and keeps forearming her, over and over into the jaw. Her blood splattered onto KU’s face and flung onto the walls with every hit.

Saidie spits in KU’s face, KU gives her a forearm chop to the throat as punishment. Saidie chokes for air. KU picks up the shovel and smashes it into Saidie’s back. Saidie falls and KU turns the shovel and brings it down like an ax but Saidie moves just in time. The shovel sticks-fast into the ground while Saidie crawls away. KU laughs and makes his way over to her, grabbing her ankle and turning her around to stomp on her face.. But this time it was Saidie Sharpe who threw rocks and dirt into KU’s face! KU stumbles backwards into the wall, Saidie gets to her feet and throws herself into KU with a dropkick! KU hits the wall and then stumbles forward, where Saidie grabs on a front face-lock and kicks off the wall into a nice tornado DDT.

Saidie drags KU up and Irish-whips him face first into the wall. KU’s head meets stone and he falls backwards. Saidie hits a second enziguri onto the falling KU. Saidie looks over and sees on the tracks a mining cart sits waiting. She smiles and tells Ku he’s going for a ride as she kicks him in the head three times and then drags him up over to the cart. Saidie flips KU into the cart and then kicks it to get it rolling. The cart speeds away and there is a loud crash a few moments later. Saidie picks up the shovel and makes her way down the tracks.

Saidie gets to the crashed cart, it had made it’s abrupt stop smashing into a brick wall. There was no KU to be found, but there is a trail of blood leading deeper into the mine. Saidie follows the trail while whistling. She comes to another large circular room. There are sledgehammers, and barbed wire wrapped tables, and ladders and… she didn’t get longer to look around as KU smashes a chair against her head from the side. Saidie falls down and KU begins to smash the chair down on Saidie’s back. KU drags Saidie up and hits a big European uppercut that knocks her backwards. KU goes to smash the chair into Saidie’s crimson face but Saidie rolls under and grabs the shovel. She quickly spins around and uses the shovel to slice KU’s back open. KU lets out a grunt of pain as the dull shovel cuts his flesh. KU turns to face Saidie but Saidie rushes him and lands a big SaidTO! KU’s head snaps onto the ground. He rolls over onto his belly and you can see his wound is now full of dirt and rocks, and still bleeding heavily.

Saidie drags KU by his ankle to one of the tables, she lifts him up and grabs on a bear-hug before lifting KU further and throwing him through the table with a spinebuster! The barbed wire tears into KU, he yells out in pain. Saidie mounts him, getting cut by barbed wire herself. She begins to punch down on KU over and over and over. KU spits blood into Saidie’s eyes and she stumbles backwards. KU pulls himself up, a rush of adrenaline helping him ignore his wounds. He grabs Saidie’s hair and slams into her with a lariat! Sacred Nightmares! KU drags Saidie up into a powerbomb position and quickly stunguns her backwards through a barbed wire wrapped table! Saidie pulls herself up, pulling barbed wire from her face, neck and arms. She gets to her feet, screaming in pain as KU forearms her in the base of the skull and she falls limp. KU drags Saidie up by her hair and grabs on a chokehold. He whispers into her ear this is it but Saidie headbutts backwards and catches KU’s nose.

KU’s nose begins to gush blood as KU stumbles backwards and releases the hold. Saidie turns and hits her trademark BSPT right into KU’s possibly broken nose. KU falls down to his butt, Saidie rushes in and her knee connects against the side of KU’s head. SPARKLING WITCH! Saidie drags KU up to his knees and slaps him in the face, sending blood flying. Saidie pulls KU up and throws him down with a spinebuster! Saidie mounts KU and starts to slap him in the face over and over. KU desperately reaches out for a weapon and he finds one… a sledgehammer! KU brings the hammer handle crashing against Saidie’s face to get her off him. Saidie gets to her feet and KU breaks the handle over her head! Saidie falls to her knees and KU grabs her and PILEDRIVER! RUDE EXIT!

KU drags Saidie up by her hair while forearming her over and over. Saidie isn’t even standing. KU is holding her up by her hair. KU hits a European uppercut followed by a strong forearm. KU goes for one more sacred nightmares but Saidie falls to her knees and KU misses. KU had enough force off it he threw himself a good five feet forward. Saidie drags herself up and turns to face KU as he stands. Saidie rushes KU and jumps into a dropkick that sends KU flying backwards into a wall. KU lets out a painful cry as he falls forward, the impact sent KU into a steel pipe that stabbed KU about 3 inches deep! Saidie looks down at KU’s unmoving body and kicks him in the head.

Saidie: I won!

Saidie turns and heads to the exit, walking past all the carnage they had endured. Saidie gets to the entrance, and sighs.

Saidie: If he wants to off himself that bad, he can do it himself.

She turns around and limps back through the mineshaft to retrieve KU, but when she gets back to the small room KU is gone. Saidie looks around, confused as hell and kind of creeped out. She quickly exits the mineshaft to accept her victory. She gets into her car and drives off.

Dobrev: And your winner, Saidie Sharpe!

The feed transitions away from the Colliery Mine and over to the backstage area of the SEC Centre in Glasgow, Scotland

The camera cuts backstage to Prime’s Jenna Salvatore, who is all smiles as she looks into the camera

Salvatore: Ladies and gentlemen it’s my honor and privilege to welcome back to Prime the EWC Tag Team Champions, Bobby Rose and Jimmy Lane, THE SOUTHERN EXPRESS!!! Along with Bunny Love!!!

The camera pulls back to show the trio standing next to Jenna

Salvatore: I’ve missed you guys, even you Bunny, and we are seeing you for the first time in a Prime ring since the Season Finale of 2020 at Prime #075 when you successfully defended those tag team championships against The Fateful Heros, your 2nd successful title defense and here tonight at World Wide III you are on the cusp of history as you look for your record breaking 6th successful title defense against Prime’s very own Jamie Love and Lorenzo of The Young Lions!!!

Bobby and Jimmy nod along with Jenna

Rose: Well I know we upset a lot of Prime fans when we made Paramount our new home base to start off 2021 but…

Lane: Chris Brock paid us a butt load of money to make the jump…

Love: And the hefty signing bonus…

Rose: Yeah we can’t forget about that, see we 100% Steve Miller Band it…

Bobby pauses as him and Jimmy look at Jenna, who looks a bit confused

Lane: You know, ‘go on take the money and run’...

Jenna goes ‘oh’ and nods

Rose: But we didn’t leave Prime empty handed, The Young Lions have filled the void we left when we ‘sold out’ for the bags and bags of cash CB backed up at our doorsteps…

Salvatore: We get it, Chris Brock is paying you three a lot of money but we miss you around here, you brought a certain light that I for one miss...I even miss Jimmy asking me out every week...the answer is still no by the way, before you ask…

Jimmy shrugs as Bobby pats him on the back

Rose: Well the fans of Prime will be happy to know that Jimmy and I have offered up our services for Prime #082 in Tallahassee, Florida

Lane: Yeah June is going to be a busy month for the old guys of The Southern Express…

Love: Let’s get crazy!!!

Bobby nods at Jimmy and Bunny

Rose: But tonight is about history, can The Young Lions make their own history and take these championship off of ending our run and winning EWC gold for the first time for Jamie and Lorenzo OR…

Lane: Will we surpass NSFW and DSR Vol 2 and re-write the record books with our 6th successful championship defense…

Jenna nods

Salvatore: With a win here tonight you will be at day number 301 as the tag team champions, only the 6th champion to see a reign of 300 days and you would pass Jordan Sharpe’s 302 days as Indy Champion and move into 5th place in longest championship regions before you made it back to the US but first you have to get by The Young Lions inside a Steel Cage here tonight…

Rose: And it’s not going to be an easy task, I know Jamie is feeling down in the dumps, he’s asking himself ‘can I beat The Southern Express’ and as we found out he’s fighting for more than gold here tonight…

Lane: He’s fighting for his old man’s attention…

Love: Which if he really wanted all he would need to do is buy him a hooker and some blow...I mean he did say that was the BEST Father’s Day present he’s ever gotten…

Bobby and Jimmy looks at Bunny to see if shes serious because come on...it’s The Love’s and total plausible she got him that as a gift

Rose: And as much as we would love to see Tommy and Jamie have that ‘moment’ inside the ring we can’t focus on that, not when we are this close to history…

Lane: Exactly, you love you boys but this could very well be our last run in this business...you guys have your entire career ahead of you but Bobby and I are on the back nine of not only our careers but life itself…

Rose: And we aren’t ready to hand these championships off to the next team, not even to you boys so tonight we fight...as friends sometimes have to do when both want the same thing...we’ve been in this spot before, with Chico and Eddie, with Chico and his brother, with Xavier and Samantha and tonight we add Jamie and Lorenzo to the list of friends we had to rough up…

Lane: Will we feel bad about busting you boys open and spilling your blood yes..tomorrow but tonight it’s about showing the wrestling world that The Southern Express are still the best damn tag team in this business…

Love: And opening the eyes of those fools over at Under Armor!!!

Bobby smiles as Bunny gives the camera a dirty look

Rose: Jamie and Lorenzo best of luck but know once that bell rings we will do anything and everything in order to keep those championships…

Lane: And we mean anything and everything…

Rose: But after the dust settles we will go out tonight for beers and lap dances...winners , deal?

Bobby looks into the camera and smiles and Jimmy and Bunny both nod as if it’s a GREAT idea

Salvatore: Well best of luck to you guys as you chase history here in just a couple minutes at World Wide III

The scene transitions back to ringside where we prepare for our EWC World Tag Team Championship match.

EWC WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP
STEEL CAGE | NO ESCAPE CLAUSE - MUST WIN BY PINFALL OR SUBMISSON
The Young Lions
Vs The Southern Express
Match Writer: MNB

We return to ringside where final preparations are being made for the upcoming steel cage match before we cut to commentary.

Evans: Well folks, it's been a wild night so far and after that insane encounter at the Castlebridge Colliery Mine, we now focus our attention on what looks to be a thrilling match between the Young Lions and the Southern Express, with the Tag Team Championship on the line! It's time to once again see the Love Club come to blows, will there be any peace here when it's all said and done?

Reid: The following match is being contested inside a steel cage, and it is for the EWC Tag Team Championship! In this match, there is no escape clause, and the only way to win is via pinfall or submission! Joining us first, from South Los Angeles, at a combined weight of 305 pounds, Jamie Love and Lorenzo ... THE YOUNG LIONS!

Jamie and Lorenzo step out onto the stage smiling and talking shit to each other as Maria stand in between them rolling her eyes. After a few seconds she shoves them both down the ramp as they continue to talk shit...but, noticeably, the smack talk subsides once they reach the cage. They enter through the door, heading into the center of the ring as they get ready for the upcoming challenge as we see Maria standing outside, a look of concern on her face.

Reid: And their opponents...

The electric guitar kicks in to 'Stranglehold' as the crowd gets to their feet, some of the older females in the crowd start to scream like they did when they were younger as Bunny Love walks out onto the stage and is quickly followed by Bobby Rose and Jimmy Lane.

Reid: Being accompanied to the ring by Bunny Love, from Nashville, Tennessee, They are the EWC Tag Team Champions of the World...Bobby Rose and Jimmy Lane... THE SOUTHERN EXPRESS!

Bunny leads the way as the pair reach out and high five with the fans as the walk to the cage. Bunny menters first, stepping through the ropes as Bobby and Jimmy follow, taking off the titles to hand them to the ref. With the crowd cheering, the ref raises the titles to signify the prize before handing them to someone at ringside, who leaves the cage before it gets locked.

Evans: Here we go, folks! Love Club against Love Club once again, and the Young Lions look hungry for gold!

DING DING DING

With all four men in the ring at once the match quickly breaks down into chaos with the Southern Express taking control, laying into the Young Lions with some heavy punches and kicks. Bobby looks to lock up Lorenzo, who is having none of that as he actively avoids the tie-up attempts. He chooses instead to target the legs, hoping to cut Bobby down to size, bringing him to one knee before looking for a quick DDT...but Bobby blocks it, grabbing him by the ankle to bring him to the canvas!

Jimmy meanwhile drops Jamie with a clothesline before joining Bobby, as the two elder statesmen of the industry gang up on Lorenzo with some hard punches before sending him to the ropes looking for a double clothesline...but Lorenzo ducks under, and bounces back with a cross body on both men!

This gives the Young Lions an opening they quickly take advantage of, targeting Jimmy first with a flurry of double-team offense that sends him toward the ropes. Lorenzo launches himself at Jimmy...but gets thrown into the side of the cage for his troubles! Jamie doesn't stand for this, dropping Jimmy to the canvas with a dropkick and the cover!



...1!



KICK OUT!

Evans: Wow, what a close one! Southern Express showing some fire early on, but the Young Lions taking the fight to the tag champs!

Kushnir: If they keep this up they could very well pull this off, Marshall!

Jimmy gets back to his feet as the match boils back down to chaos with all four men brawling, before the Express take Jamie down with a double back body drop. Lorenzo goes to help but is sent to the corner as the champs turn their attention back to the Love Child...who sends Jimmy face first into the cage wall with a drop toe hold! Jamie's back to his feet, a man possessed as he gives Bobby everything he's got to drive him back to the ropes...BUT BOBBY DROPS HIM WITH A LARIAT! Jamie looks out of it as Bobby goes for the cover!



...1!



...2!



NO! Lorenzo stops the pin in the nick of time!

Evans: Lorenzo doing to save this match for the Lions, but Jamie still looks out of it!

Kushnir: Here's hoping he can recover quickly!

Jamie slowly comes to as Lorenzo lays into Bobby with some stomps. Soon, Jamie follows suit before Lorenzo directs him to climb the turnbuckle...but Jimmy is right there waiting, dropping the Love Child with a boot to the midsection that sends him down hard. Jimmy goes after Lorenzo next, but he has the Southern Expresser scouted and dodges a right hand before connecting with an enziguri! Lorenzo looks like he's gonna take a chance here, hoping for the upset as he goes for the cover!



...1!



NO! This time it's Bobby who makes the save, breaking up the pinfall attempt!

Evans: Wow! The champs really letting their challengers know that they're ready to retain tonight, and you gotta wonder what it's gonna take for one of these teams to keep the other down!

Kushnir: Well, when you're inside that cage things can go south real quick!

Jimmy is able to get to his feet fairly quickly as they go right back to work on Lorenzo, this time wearing him down in the hopes of ending this match for good and retaining the titles. They set the Lion up before dropping him with a double super kick! MIC DROP! They turn to go after Jaime, but the Love Child has other ideas as he sends Bobby into the cage with a dropkick! Jimmy, on the other hand, goes for a solo super kick to try and bring Jamie's momentum to a screeching halt...but Jamie ducks it! Wait a minute, it's a backslide! Oldest trick in the book, and Jamie's going for a pin here!



...1!



...2!



...JIMMY KICKS OUT!

Evans: So, SO close with that one, but it's gonna take a lot more than that to take down the champs tonight!

Kushnir: Agreed! The Young Lions have been really going hard but...wait a minute...

Jimmy is back to his feet, trading punches with Jamie...but the focus now is on Bobby, who seems to be struggling to get to his feet. Jimmy throws Jamie into the corner, but notices what's happening with Bobby and goes to check on him. Bobby waves him off as though to say he'll be alright, but suddenly clutches his shoulder. This draws the attention of Lorenzo, who goes to check on his Love Club stablemate. Bunny and Maria are both getting worried now as they rush over...but Bobby grabs Lorenzo in a small package! Jamie runs to break the pin up but is cut off by a clothesline by Jimmy as the ref makes the count!



...1!



...2!



...3!

DING DING DING

Reid: And your winner, via pinfall, and STILL Tag Team Champions ... THE SOUTHERN EXPRESS!!!

The cage door is opened as the ref is given the championships to present to the Southern Express, but Maria and Bunny interrupt the celebration with both visibly upset at the champions, who try to calm the ladies down as we cut back to commentary.

Evans: What in the world!? After all that, Bobby had the gall to fake being injured just to lure the Lions in for the win? That is disgusting!

Kushnir: I figured this match between folks that know each other wouldn't stoop to such a low, but here we are. Still, the Young Lions showed that they had what it takes to go after the tag titles tonight, and you have to respect that!

Evans: Hopefully things don't boil over for the Love Club after the way this match went down! 

The Young Lions join in on the confrontation with the champions, looking for answers from Bobby and Jimmy as the camera cuts to Victor Price, hard at work in his backstage office. 

We open backstage where Victor Price can be seen in his office. He has his cell phone on speaker.

Voice: Hello?

Price: Saidie, it's Victor Price. How are you feeling after that match with KU?

Saidie: Better now that's it's done with.

Price: (laughing) .. listen .. I'm really impressed with your win tonight. For someone without them, you showed allot of balls in securing that 'w'

Saidie: I did what I had to do. KU brought that upon himself. Surprising to get a phone call from the GM just for that though?

Price: I'm doing things differently. More professionally than you might have been used to. This isn't some Mickey Mouse, Chris Brock, poorly run shit show over on here on PRIME. But look .. we all know Paramount is trash .. this call isn't just to congratulate you on the win .. you took some hits tonight .. got banged up a bit .. you think you'll be healed and good to go in two weeks?

Saidie: Of course I will be. What kind of question is that. I can be at the arena and have a match tonight if you'll let me!!

Price: (laughing) Good. Get yourself right, because in two weeks .. in Tallahassee, Florida .. you are going to compete for the Showtime Broadcast Championship. So if you didn't catch the Showtime Broadcast Championship match earlier tonight, I suggest you go watch it .. you'll be facing Aiya. 

Saidie: FINALLY!! ALL I NEED IS A SHOT! THANK YOU! I will make sure to go and check out that match, I didn't get a chance to see it as I was preparing for my fight.

Price: Excellent, look, I'm a big believer in rewarding those who put in the effort. I see how hard you've been working, and like I said, tonight's win impressed me. Heal up, you have a big time opportunity in two weeks.

Saidie: Appreciate the opportunity. I will NOT waste it. Thanks again, Mr. Price.

Price ends the call and nods his head with a smirk on his face as we head back to ringside and tonight's Main Event.

INDY CHAMPIONSHIP
LADDER MATCH
S.I.N
Vs Dio
Match Writer: Emma Louise

---

We return to ringside where Evans is ready for the Main Event

Evans: Well there you go folks, Saidie Sharpe gets her opportunity in two weeks, but while that's exciting, we are in the here and the now, which is the PRIME Indy Championship! It's Main Event time. The moment we've all been waiting for. Will Dio walk out Champion? Or is it time for some S.I.N? Either way .. this match is going to be AWEsome!

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 floods the entrance way revealing Silas Isaac Naberius. He slowly turns around, raises his head head and tilts the brim of his Panama hat up as he scans the arena as his Pet slips into view behind him. He begins to twirl his cane and makes his way down the ramp.

He climbs the ring steps and takes a moment to look over the crowd, his gaze passing over the front rows before him. He takes off his hat and places it on the ring post and places his cane on the top turnbuckle. He steps between the ropes and walks around the ring, still inspecting the crowd, before finally settling into his corner.

Evans: The look on the challenger's face tells the story here, he is ready to claim what he feels is rightfully his.

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.

Reid: The following match is a Ladder Match and it is for the Indy Chamionship! In the corner to my right, the challenger, residing in Whitechapel, London, England, weighing 167 lbs, Silas Isaac Naberius! ... SILAS ISAAC NABERIUS!

Reid: And the opponent, residing in Seattle, Washington and weighing in at 205 pounds: he is Indy Champion. Your Crux ... DIO!

Evans: And here we go, folks! Main event action underway!

DING DING DING

S.I.N lunges at Dio with a Right Hand but Dio ducks it hitting S.I.N with Right Hands of his own before Irish Whipping S.I.N off the ropes. Dio ducks looking for a Back Drop but S.I.N is able to slow his momentum and hit Dio with a Swinging Neckbreaker. S.I.N mounts on top of Dio unleashing a barrage of Right Hands before grabbing Dio and throwing him into the corner and Clotheslining Dio back down to the canvas. S.I.N takes a few steps back before running at Dio and booting Dio in the ribs with a Soccer Kick followed by one to the face and head. S.I.N lifts Dio up off the cavnas and then up in the air for a Suplex before dropping Dio, gut first, over the top rope. S.I.N then hits Dio with a low Superkick to the back of the head before rolling out of the ring to fetch a ladder.

S.I.N folds up the ladder and turns back to the ring as Dio throws himself over the top rope crashing in to both the ladder and S.I.N with a Tope Con Hilo. Dio is on his feet first. Dio slides the ladder into the ring before lashing out at a downed S.I.N with punches, kicks and a knee to the head before pulling S.I.N to his feet and throwing him, face first, into the ring post. Dio slides into the ring and sets up the ladder. He starts to climb it slowly moving up the rungs. Just as Dio touches the Indy Championship with his fingertips, S.I.N appears from almost nowhere and stops Dio in his tracks with a low blow. Dio crumples from the top of the ladder to the canvas below as S.I.N shakes his arm such was the blow so forceful.

Evans: Oh man, that impact was tough to watch at the outset. Dio looks like he could be out cold already!

Kushnir: Perhaps, but the challenger isn't banking on that by the looks of things!

S.I.N dumps Dio into the corner and unloads with a series of stomps, kicks and punches before throwing Dio into the ladder. Dio smacks into the ladder which, in a way, holds Dio on his feet. S.I.N runs at Dio with a flying.... something but Dio quickly moves and S.I.N finds himself halfway up the ladder. S.I.N throws himself at Dio again but Dio manages to counter it into a DDT in mid air. Dio lifts S.I.N to his feet and tries to heave S.I.N over the top rope. Somehow, S.I.N manages to counter the move sending Dio to the outside. S.I.N takes the opportunity to climb the ladder. Just as S.I.N is about to touch the championship, Dio leaps from the ring apron taking S.I.N down with a Bulldog.

Both are on their feet. Dio swipes at S.I.N with a Right Hand before lifting Dio and hitting a Side Suplex into the ladder. The ladder buckles and falls leaning against the top rope. Dio slides down to the mat. S.I.N lifts Dio to his feet but Dio punches his way free before running off the ropes at S.I.N with a Laertius Effect. S.I.N is able to quickly counter it into a Powerbomb onto the ladder. The spring from the ropes sends Dio, S.I.N and the ladder all crashing to the canvas. S.I.N grabs Dio repeatedly smashing his face into the ladder. S.I.N gets to his feet dragging Dio to his. Dio manages to quickly counter S.I.N dropping him with a White Noise onto the ladder.

Evans: Wow! The champ taking the fight right back to his challenger, but both men are damaged badly from that!

Kushnir: Oh no, look at Dio's face!

Blood is pouring from somewhere on Dio's face as he lifts S.I.N and dumps him into the corner. Dio then leans the ladder against S.I.N before walking to the opposite corner and running at S.I.N Dropkicking the ladder. The ladder falls to the canvas before S.I.N Flair flops onto it. Dio climbs to the top turnbuckle and leaps at S.I.N with a top rope Splash. S.I.N moves at the last second and Dio splashes on nothing but the ladder. S.I.N kicks Dio under the ropes to the ringside floor before setting up the ladder. Slowly he climbs the ladder. Just as S.I.N reaches for the championship, a chair flies through the air, crashing into S.I.N and knocking him to the mat.

Dio takes the chair he threw into the ring and whals on S.I.N with it. Dio adjusts the ladder and begins his climb. Just as Dio nears the top, S.I.N from his position on the mat pushes the ladder over dropping it onto the top rope and Dio crashing to the ringside mat. S.I.N gets to his feet, looks down at Dio at ringside and drops the chair onto him. S.I.N then adjusts the ladder and begins his climb. He is at the top of the ladder. S.I.N's hand touches the championship but before he can unhook it, Dio comes flying in from seemingly nowhere with a springboard Slingblade.

Evans: Dio just manages to maintain hopes of retaining with that Slingblade!

Kushnir: Silas was just fingertips...FINGERTIPS away, Marshall!

S.I.N rolls to the outside of the ring as Dio slowly uses the ropes to pull himself to his feet. Dio starts a climb up the ladder but only makes it a few rungs up before S.I.N is back in the ring and smacks Dio with a table. Dio falls to the canvas while S.I.N sets up the table at the side of the ladder. S.I.N climbs the ladder. Dio climbs the other side. At the top both exchange right hands before Dio grabs S.I.N hitting a Tranquiity.

Both crash to the mat. Dio is on his feet. He drags his way up the ladder. As he reaches for the championship, S.I.N grabs at Dio's ankle. S.I.N pulls with all his might trying to stop Dio reaching the top of the ladder. Sin pulls his way up Dio before jerking him off the ladder with A Knife For Your Back. Both crash to the ground. Well S.I.N does. Dio lands with S.I.N's knees in his back. Both men are down.

Evans: Both men are in a bad way right now, you gotta wonder who's gonna dig down deep to get that title!

Kushnir: Right, they're moving slowly but surely toward that ladder now!

Both men crawl to the ladder. Each man going up a different side. At the top of the ladder a fist fight breaks out with both men exchanging punches. Dio hits S.I.N with a punch to the gut that doubles him over leaving him easy prey for a Deconstruction through the table below sending wood, metal and splinters everywhere. S.I.N slumps to the outside as Dio climbs the ladder. There is nothing at the top stopping him. Nothing. Dio even glances down at S.I.N to make sure before he unhooks the Indy Championship and holds it in the air

DING DING DING

Reid: And your winner, and STILL Indy Champion ... DIO!!!

Dio holds the championship in the air as he makes his way down the ladder. The referee holds his arm in the air as Dio falls to his knees holding the championship in the air.

Evans: What a match, what a main event! Both champ and challenger giving it all they had in that ring, fighting tooth and nail to make that climb...but in the end, Dio ascends to a key victory to retain the Indy Championship!

Kushnir: And what a close effort it was by the challenger, too! Man, did he take a lot out of Dio in this match .. and boy, did Dio dish it right back! Congratulations to Dio on retaining the title tonight!

Evans: Folks, it has been an absolutely wild night here in Glasgow! The best and brightest of PRIME really stepped their game up to show what this brand is all about, and I for one am glad to have been a part of it! And with recent news, we now know that even bigger things are on the way for the stars of the blue brand! Folks, that's gonna do it for us tonight. I've been Marshall Evans alongside my lovely wife Hayley Kushnir, thank you for joining us for World Wide Three! We'll see you in two weeks when PRIME comes to you live from the Al Lawson Center in Tallahassee, Florida. Good night everyone!

The last shot is of Dio continue to celebrate his win despite his exhaustion, as medical staff start to check on the challenger. Dio looks over to his opponent with a slight smirk, realizing just what he had to go through to retain as the show comes to a close.
