While 'Courtesy Call' by Thousand Foot Krutch 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.

The camera centers on ringside at the Zenith de Strasbourg, 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: Bienvenue à tous sur Prime ! Je m'appelle Marshall!
Kushnir: Good to see you remembered something from your school days.
Evans: Probably the only thing. What matters is tonight and what a show it is! We have Scorpio defending the Showtime Broadcast Championship against Amber Lisa Hall. Eddie Dozier and Snoop Solano in X-Division Rules and Marcu$ $t John taking on a Prime newcomer in Alex Blade.
Kushnir: We will also have Lorenzo battle the Headhuntress Aiya in an X-Division war, Dio go non-title with Nina Samson while Narumi Tsutsumi will no doubt be watching. And our main event will be Patrick James and Dalilah Ashe in a rookie showcase to give us a flavor for Youngblood
Evans: I usually use some basil and bay leaves with some turmeric when I want flavor
Kushnir: You don't cook, you order the food on phone apps!
Evans: Anywhoo, It's looking like a great show on tap here tonight!
Kushnir: It is an unmissable show but in the event you DO miss any of it, you can easily catch up using EWCTV

X-DIVISION RULES MATCH
Eddie Dozier
Vs Snoop Solano
Match Writer: prime
Eddie Dozier
Vs Snoop Solano
Match Writer: prime
We return to ringside where we see Marshall Evans.
Evans: We open tonight with an X-Division war as Snoop Solano battles with Eddie Dozier
Reid: The following match, set for one fall, is an X-Division Rules Match. Joining us first, from Cali, Columbia and weighing in at 214 pounds ... SNOOP SOLANO!
Snoop Solano marches down the ramp through a smoke screen of apparent dry ice, his white vest showing his cut chest and abdomen. He gives a shout of “Come On” stepping into the ring giving his vest to the stage hand as Thief’s Theme begins to fade in the background.
Images of rain falling on cement are seen on the big screen 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: Ladies and gentlemen. It is the EWC's privilege to bring back to you the EWC's Nightmare! Weighing in at two hundred and fifty-five pounds. Louisville, Kentucky's finest. 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 the bell.
DING DING DING
Solano hits out with Right Hands that back Dozier into the corner. Solano Irish Whips Dozier to the opposite corner but Dozier slides under the ropes, round the ring post and back into the ring, charging at Solano with a Clothesline that Solano ducks before catching Dozier with a Chop to the chest. Solano follows up with a European Uppercutt and a Roundhouse Kick to the side of the head. Dozier leans forward and Solano Snapmares him. Solano runs off the ropes looking for a Penalty Kick but Dozier leans back to avoid it before getting to his feet and pushing Solano off the ropes. Dozier then pops Solano into the air before bringing him down to the mat with a powerslam
ONE...
TWO...
THR... NO! KICK OUT!
Dozier rolls out of the ring before reaching under it to pull out a trashbag that he slides into the ring before following it. He reaches into the bag and pulls out a garland of fake French onions and starts choking Solano with it. Solano stuggles to break free lashing out with his hands and legs before catching Dozier on the temple with a knee. Dozier staggers as Solano pulls of the garland and whacks Dozier with it. Solano then reaches into the bag and pulls out a kendo stick. Solano cracks Dozier across the skull with it before a shot to the gut. Solano throws the kendo stick down and runs at Dozier hitting a High Knee that staggers Dozier but doesn't knock him down. He then runs of the ropes catching Dozier with a Spinning Heel Kick that does knock him to the mat
ONE...
TWO...
THR... NO! KICK OUT!
Evans: I'll need more than that to keep these two down at this stage
Kushnir: In an X-Division rules match I'm almost scared to ask what it will take.
To answer that, Solano rolls out of the ring and pulls a wooden door from under the ring. He slides it into the ring before walking over to the announce table. Before he can get there, Dozier cracks him across the back with the kendo stick dropping him to the ground Dozier climbs the steps as Solano gets to his feet. Dozier leaps bringing the kendo stick down on Solano's skull. Dozier rolls Solano into the ring before grabbing the chairs from under Damon Reid and the timekeeper and taking them into the ring as he slides back in himself. He gets in the ring to find Solano on his feet. Solano bounces off the ropes and over Dozier before hitting a Castle Sand onto one of the chairs.
ONE...
TWO...
THR... NO! KICK OUT!
Dozier rolls onto his side to break the count. Solano pulls the chair from under Dozier and hits him with it. Solano waits for Dozier to drag himself to his feet before trying to jab Dozier in the gut with the chair. Dozier blocks by grabbing hold of the chair. He pulls it out of Solano's hands before throwing it at Solano's skull. Solano staggers leaving him open for a Sacrifice.
ONE...
TWO...
THR... NO! KICK OUT!
Evans: Chairs, Sand Castles and Sacrifices!
Kushnir: Oh my. And still you can not keep them down.
Dozier waits for Solano to get to his feet. Dozier runs at him looking for a Spear but Solano throws a chair at Dozier who crumples to the mat. Solano sets up the wooden door like a table held up by the two chairs before lifting Dozier to the top turnbuckle. Solano attempts a Superplex but Dozier blocks. Dozier lifts Solano up and twists in mid air as he Superplexes Solano onto the door. Solano crashes down hard onto the door but the hard wood doesn't break. Solano crumples to the mat. Dozier lifts him to his feet hitting The End
ONE...
TWO...
THREE!
DING DING DING
Reid: And your winner, via pinfall ... EDDIE DOZIER!!!
Evans: That door didn't break but Snoop Solano sure did!
Kushnir: The door was knocked and the bell was rung. That's not a welcome mat Solano's laid out on. Credit to him, he did push Eddie Dozier tonight, I don't need the blood oozing down Eddie's head to say that. But tonight was Dozier's night.
Dozier grabs the onion garland and throws it over his neck like a laurel wreath before holding his arms in the air in victory.
Evans: I'm being told now we have footage of an arrival to the arena jus before we went on air this evening
Kushnir: Let's go to that now
The camera cuts to ...
Backstage, we find Jenna Salvatore going over some notes in a backstage corridor. Suddenly, a familiar pair of partially-covered hands reaches in from behind her, fingers wrapping around her face to cover her eyes.
??: Guess who!?
Jenna Salvatore: God, those are sticky.
Wrenching herself free from the fingers, Jenna turns to find El Pablo standing there, a big beaming Technicolour grin on his masked face.
El Pablo: Nope! It's me! El Pablo!
Jenna Salvatore: Are you sure? It's not Xavier Reid under there in disguise again?
El Pablo: Ha! Good one; I'm not Xavier...I think…
As confusion threatens to take hold, Jenna's journalistic instinct swoops in to save the Tecnico from himself.
Jenna Salvatore: So what brings you back to these shores so soon?
A smirk spreads across EP's face, his gaze drifting briefly towards the X-Division Championship belt that hangs proudly around his waist.
El Pablo: Well, as you know, Youngblood's just around the corner...and, as chaos would have it, the three contenders that'll be vying for a shot at this at WrestleFest are all in action here tonight! So, you know, I figured it'd be a good idea to do a little scouting; get a good idea of what I'm likely to be up against.
Jenna Salvatore: That's remarkably proactive of you.
El Pablo: Thanks; it was mostly Cristal's idea.
Jenna Salvatore: I assumed as much.
El Pablo: Borderline tackled me onto the plane.
Jenna Salvatore: So, I know this is the question that every champion hates yet somehow still always gets asked...but is there any of the three you'd prefer to face?
EP tosses a handful of pocket Skittles into his mouth as he mulls the question over for a moment.
El Pablo: No - which I know is the obvious answer but...you know. Honestly, any of the three would present an exceptional challenge; we've seen Snoop Solano show what he can do against an opponent the caliber of Ace King over on Rampage, and obviously Amber Lisa Hall's got the opportunity to make herself the ultimate 'gold standard' later on tonight. That being said…there is another who's captured my attention.
Jenna Salvatore: Lemme guess...the Headhuntress?
EP nods.
El Pablo: The Headhuntress. She's the one who answered my call, after all; dialled into Paramount in Monterrey and let me know her head was well and truly above the parapet. I respect her candour; her capabilities as a competitor even moreso. She's good...real good. Good enough to take this though?
EP flashes another glance at his title belt.
El Pablo: Guess we don't have too long to find out.
The Tecnico then turns to stare directly down the camera lens.
El Pablo: Like I said, Aiya...you have my attention. I understand how long you've had your eye on this X-Division belt, and I think I've got a pretty good idea of the lengths to which you'll be willing to go in order to get your hands on it. The question you have to ask yourself is...to what lengths am I gonna be willing to go to keep it?
Hopefully we can both get some answers before too long...but you know what they say; don't count your Skittles before they hatch.
Jenna Salvatore: Do they say that?
El Pablo: They do - and their point is, having waited so long and worked so hard to create this moment...you don't wanna fumble it at the final hurdle. So I hope you stick the landing at Youngblood, Aiya, I really do...and then, at WrestleFest, we'll see what really happens when the Headhuntress...meets the Facepainter.
Viva la Rainbowlution.
EP smirks again as the camera cuts away.

Marcu$ $t John
Vs Alex Blade
Match Writer: prime
Evans: While El Pablo makes himself comfortable, we have a match coming up with at least one Prime Debut so let's go to the ring.
Reid: The following match is set for one fall. Joining us first, coming to the ring at 6'1" and weighing 210 lbs, it's The Young Mogul, ... MARCU$ $T JOHN!
"Fast Lane" blasts through the arena by Bad Meets Evil. A Maybach drives up through the entrance ramp. A chauffeur gets out of the vehicle and opens the back door. Marcu$ $t. John gets out on the entrance stage and money starts falling down from the sky with his face on 100 dollar bills as green laser lights illuminate the arena. As the money shower stops, Marcu$ walks down the ramp with a confident look on his face.
He stops right before he gets to the ring and listens as he hears mostly boos and a few cheers that he is getting from the crowd. He walks around the ring and high fives people who are cheering and stares a hole in the head of people who boo. He jumps up on the apron and wipes his feet before he enters the ring and poses in the middle of the squared circle as a light shines a hundred dollar bill in the center of the ring with his face on it.
Reid: And the opponent, from Austin, Texas and weighing in at 260 pounds ... ALEX BLADE!
As Time has come begins to play the crowd cheers loudly as Alex steps out from behind the curtain with his sister Kelly.t They both make there way towards the ring as Kelly smiles and waves to the crowd while Alex is focused in getting into the ring. Once inside the ring, She talks him up to get him ready for the match
DING DING DING
Blade lashes out with a Right Hand but Marcu$ ducks it hitting right hands of his own. Marcu$ attempts a Superkick but Blade blocks it before shoving Marcu$ off the ropes. Macus comes back hitting blade with a Meteora. Marcu$ attempts a second Superkick and again it is blocked. Blade grabs Marcu$' leg and pulls him toward him before lashing out with a series of Palm Strikes. Marcu$ attempts a Right Hand but Blade ducks it before hitting a Uranage. Blade grabs Marcu$' left arm and pulls it into an Armbar. Marcu$ screams in pain as he pulls himself to the ropes forcing a break. Blade catches Marcu$ on the side of the head with a Hook Kick before running off the ropes and catching Marcu$ in the ribs with a Khao Chiang. Blade whips Marcu$ off the ropes and attempts a Back Fist that Marcu$ ducks before hitting Blade with a DDT.
Evans: Both starting well.
Kushnir: Well but easy. Both will need to fight a lot harder if they're going to win this.
Marcu$ lifts Blade hitting a Suplex. He stands over Blade for a second too long. Blade stretches his legs grabbing Marcu$' head between his ankles and he pulls at Marcu$' head while applying an Ankle Lock at the same time. Marcu$ screams in pain as he stretches in an attempt to pull himself to the ropes. Finally he gets a finger to them breaking the hold. Marcu$ uses the ropes to help him to his feet but Blade knocks him back down hitting The Deadly Combo of a Kick to the knee, a Side Kick to the chest and a Roundhouse Kick to the head. He makes a cover
ONE...
TWO...
THR... NO! KICK OUT!
Marcu$ just, and I mean just, rolls onto his side breaking the count. Again Marcu$ uses the ropes to drag himself to his feet. Blade runs at Marcu$ but Marcu$ manages to lift Blade and hit him with a Death Valley Driver out of almost desperation. He reaches an arm across Blade's chest.
ONE...
TWO...
THR... NO! KICK OUT!
Evans: From the jaws of near defeat, Marcu$ almost grabbed a victory!
Kushnir: This match is still anyone's
Blade gets to his feet and pulls Marcu$ to his. Blade huts Marcu$ with an Uppercutt that staggers him back into the corner. Blade whips Marcu$ to opposite corner but pulls his arm back toward Blade applying a Shot Lock. Marcu$ stomps at Blade's knee forcing him to break the hold. Marcu$ grabs Blade quickly hitting a Bankrupt
ONE...
TWO...
THREE!
DING DING DING
Reid: And your winner, via pinfall ... Marcu$ $T JOHN!!!
Evans: I don't know how he did it. I just know THAT he did it.
Kushnir: Alex Blade came so close here tonight to the point that when he applied that Kimura I thought was all over. Only one that didn't was Marcu$ $t John.
Marcu$ kneels in the ring leaning over the middle rope looking out at the cheering crowd. He rolls out of the ring and raises his arms in victory before walking up the ramp with a slight limp
Evans: A big win here for Marcu$.
Kushnir: SBu who will be in the money when the Showtime Broadcast Championship is on the line next!

Amber Lisa Hall
Vs Scorpio
Match Writer: prime
We return to ringside where Marshall Evans stands in front of a Union Jack.
Evans: Peasants of Prime, it's time to address YOUR Prime Minister as Scorpio defends his Showtime Broadcast Championship against Amber Lisa Hall.
Reid: The following match, set for one fall, is for the EWC Showtime Broadcast Championship! Joining us first, from Brooklyn, New York and weighing in at 135 pounds ... AMBER LISA HALL!
Run It came blasting over the speakers as Amber stood on the top of the ramp with her leather jacket on with a smirk across her face. She comes out playing to the crowd a bit before she climbs inside of the ring. She takes off her jacket with a smile looking over at the opponents with a grin ready to start
'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: Please welcome, from London, England, weighing in at 205 lbs... he is the EWC Showtime Broadcast Champion... '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
Scorpio leans against the corner sneering at his opponent. He pushes off the corner and steps to the middle of the ring where Hall runs at hi catching Scorpio with a Spinning Backfist. Hall continues her atack with Forearm Smashes. Hall hits a Backhand Chop to Scorpio's chest that spins him around leaving him open for Hall to hit a German Suplex. Scorpio gets to his feet as Hall runs hitting a Swinging Neckbreaker. Hall climbs to the middle turnbuckle as Scorpio gets to his feet again. He walks right into a Flying Clothesline. Hall lifts Scorpio to his feet but he pushes her away with elbows to the gut before taking her down o the mat with an armdrag. Scorpio applies an Armbar but Hall quickly takes him over with a Headscissors. Both get to their feet and Scorpio hits a Dropkick that staggers Hall. Scorpio then his a Roundhouse Kick before running at Hall with a Tornado DDT
ONE...
TWO...
THR... NO! KICK OUT!
Hall rolls Scorpio's poor pin attempt up in a Crucifix.
ONE...
TWO...
THR... NO! KICK OUT!
Evans: Very close to a new champion there
Kushnir: I'm not sure. It's still early in the match. That said, Amber is showing that she's not here to be an easy defence for Scorpio
Both get to their feet and Scorpio lashes out with a Superkick. Hall catches his foot and spins him around before lifting him and hitting a Powerslam
ONE...
NO! KICK OUT!
Scorpio quickly gets to his feet. As does Hall walking right into a Superkick.
ONE...
NO! KICK OUT!
Hall rolls onto her side breaking the count. Slowly she gets to her feet as Scorpio runs off the ropes hitting Brexit Means Brexit
ONE...
TWO...
THR... NO! KICK OUT!
Hall just manages to get a shoulder off the mat. Scorpio takes a few steps back before running at Hall for a 28th Amendment. At the last second, she moves and Scorpio stomps on nothing but canvas. Scorpio looks at the small hole he's left in the ring as Hall grabs him in a Fatback
ONE...
TWO...
THR... NO! KICK OUT!
Scorpio rolls onto his front breaking the count. Both lay face down on the canvas.
Evans: Scorpio may have broken he ring but his reign as champion almost broke too
Kushnir: If that's what it did to the ring, I'm scared to think what he could have done to Amber's skull
Both get to their feet and Hall slaps Scorpio hard with two Backhand Chops quickly followed by a Sidewalk Slam. She lifts Scorpio to his feet looking for a DDT. Scorpio grabs her arm and twists before hitting a Heel Turn.
ONE...
TWO...
THREE!
DING DING DING
Reid: And your winner, by pinfall and STILL the EWC Showtime Broadcast Champion ... SCORPIO!!!
Evans: What a contest!
Kushnir: Amber pushed him and almost won this but in the end it's Scorpio that takes the win
Scorpio stand in the middle of the ring and holds his championship in the air. He slowly turns showing all sides of the arena the championship he retained.
Evans: That's It! I'm going to stand and show our Prime Minister the respect he deserves.
Kushnir: While he does that, we need to go to a break but do come back and join us as Lorenzo and Headhuntress Aiya go to war next
The camera cuts to ...
X-DIVISION MATCH TYPE
'Headhuntress' Aiya
Vs Lorenzo
Match Writer: prime
'Headhuntress' Aiya
Vs Lorenzo
Match Writer: prime
We return to ringside where we see commentary wearing hard hats.
Evans: I feel we may need these as we have an X-Division war between Lorenzo and the Headhuntress coming up for you.
Reid: The following match, set for one fall, is an X-Division Rules Match. Joining us first, from South Los Angeles and weighing in tonight 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 walk to the ring with Lorenzo rolling under the ropes and leaning against the ring ropes talking to Maria as he waits for his opponent.
Reid: And the opponent, from Kyoto, Japan and weighing in at 137 pounds ... '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. 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 her opponent to enter the ring.
DING DING DING
Lorenzo runs at Aiya knocking her back with a Right Hand. He continues with Right Hands and kicks knocking her down to the mat. As she leans against the turnbuckle pad, Lorenzo reaches into his trunks and pulls out a bar of soap. Lorenzo tries to force the soap into Aiya's mouth. He steps back as Aiya spits out soap in the corner. Lorenzo grabs Aiya dragging her to her fee before he rams her into another corner. Lorenzo whips Aiya to the opposite corner and then hits Aiya with a DDT. With Aiya down, Lorenzo walks to the corner and reaches his hand to Maria who hands him a staple gun. Lorenzo holds it in the air for the arena to see before stapling Aiya's gear to the canvas. Again he reaches to Maria who hands him a chair. Lorenzo places the chair on Aiya's face and climbs the turnbuckles. He leaps hitting a Legdrop onto the chair.
ONE...
TWO...
THR... NO! KICK OUT!
Aiya rolls onto her side tearing the staple from the ring. Lorenzo fetches the chair as Aiya tries to prize the other staple from the mat. Lorenzo raises the chair as Aiya kicks out at his knee. Lorenzo drops to one knee as Aiya pulls her top from the canvas tearing a small hole in her gear. Aiya grabs the stapler and then Lorenzo before firing a staple into his forehead. Lorenzo gets to his feet holding his head in pain. Aiya fires a staple into his ass. Aiya runs at Lorenzo hitting him with a Spear before he rolls out of the ring. Lorenzo looks for help from Maria but Aiya rolls out of the ring with the chair in hand and cracks it across the back of Lorenzo, not once, but twice. Aiya raises the chair for a third crack but Lorenzo grabs her hitting a desperation Spinebuster that has both crashing through the commentary table
Evans: My God the table! Lorenzo just blasted the Headhuntress through our commentary and it has imploded!
Kushnir: There are bodies, monitors and a shit ton of rubble at our feet! We'll try to stay with you but there's a lot of people and a lot of cable in a short space. But first and foremost, can these two continue?
Maria helps Lorenzo to his feet and he boots Aiya in the ribs before throwing her back into the ring. Lorenzo reaches under the ring for something and rolls back into the ring. Once in the ring, Lorenzo holds up a bag of thumbtacks. Before he can do anything with them, Aiya runs at him hitting an SOS knocking him down and sending the tacks flying into the corner. She pulls him away from the tacks and covers him
ONE...
TWO...
THR... NO! KICK OUT!
Lorenzo just gets a shoulder up. Aiya lifts him to his feet and slaps him hard across the jaw. Aiya grabs Lorenzo dropping him to the mat with a Neckbreaker. Lorenzo gets to his feet and Aiya his him wih a Snap Suplex before running off the ropes. It leaves her open for Lorenzo to hit a Standing Spanish Fly
ONE...
TWO...
THR... NO! KICK OUT!
Evans: I thought that was it!
Kushnir: Our table is in bits. Those two athletes are in bits also and yet this match is somehow still in progress
Lorenzo tries to lift Aiya off the mat but an elbow to the gut sends him staggering back into the corner. Aiya lifts Lorenzo to the top rung. Aiya climbs to the second rung and lifts Lorenzo onto her back before dropping to the canvas with a White Noise that brings Lorenzo down onto the thumbtacks. Lorenzo rolls around in pain but is quickly stopped by Aiya when she blasts him with an Out To Kill
ONE...
TWO...
THREE!
DING DING DING
Reid: And your winner, via pinfall ... 'HEADHUNRESS AIYA!!!
Evans: Through tables, staples, chairs, tacks and soap these two waged war tonight. Aiya is the winner here tonight. I don't even like him but after that I even have to give Lorenzo his due. This result could easily have gone his way tonight.
Kushnir: Exactly. What an absolute war we just had. My monitor still doesn't work. And yet Aiya and Lorenzo kept on going until only one remained conscious
Aiya clutches her ribs as the referee holds her hand up in victory. She walks over to the still down Lorenzo and drops a handful of tacks onto him before rolling out of the ring and using the barrier to aid her up the ramp
Evans: We just witnessed a hell of a fight and as we ready for another one it seems we have some guests arriving just in time.
Kushnir: Let's have a look and see who it is.
The camera cuts to ...
Narumi: Megumi-chan, tapping into our edgy side had me thinking there was more to be done. Part of the dark grittiness people enjoy is the deep intellectualism of these dark tropes that make audiences know how smart the brooding characters are.
Narumi pops her jacket collar, turns her back to the camera, revealing an oni skull, and turns her face so she’s doing the typical Dio graphics pose while trying not to laugh.
Narumi: As the aspiring Crux replacement, the hopeful next EWC Indy Champion, I like the soon to be last champion know the great philosophers! Like Confucius...who tells us that “we should feel sorrow, but not sink under its oppression.”
Narumi places her index fingers on the sides of her head while jokingly mumbling “big brain!” and accidentally does a little skip with a smile on her face in fun. While Megumi, who covertly sat down to munch on onigiri riceballs and sweets, catches Narumi, trying not to laugh, she tries to make Narumi stay edgy.
Megumi: Narumi-chan, skipping isn’t edgy! We should have that line explained more instead.
Narumi catches herself and frowns while speaking in an overtly depressed tone as she lowers her back.
Narumi: Well, the Southern Express streak ended as they lost the belts right before our Paramount match. How could those two do that to us? This means it’s much less likely we’ll have a shot at the Tag Team Championships by the end of the season, even if we beat the Express. Which also means defeating Dio will likely be my last chance to get back to being the front runner in the rising talents in the EWC. I was the first young blood to win a title this year, but there’s been so many of them who have become champions since then…...
Megumi: The not sinking part!
Narumi straightens her back and becomes as gritty determined as a badass in a noir flick.
Narumi: By the time we return to Prime, we’ll have battled the Southern Express, a being from the Clouds of Despair, and Mr Age of Enlightenment himself! We know the challenges to come are steep, but we will not succumb to the dread of any pressure!
Megumi nods, and then Narumi almost notices her eating sweets, but Megumi gulps it down and stands up stone-faced again.
Megumi: There’s nothing wrong with the “antiquated” ways where people have honour.
Narumi: Indeed. “Virtue is not left to stand alone. He who practices it will have neighbours.”
Megumi: Oh, that’s another one, isn’t it!? Leave the explanation to me this time. It’s why we attracted each other and why the fans of the EWC treat us warmly! They know that virtue is not weakness. People see smiles and hear bushido, and start acting like samurai didn’t carry and USE swords.
Narumi: We may be the Best Girls of Prime, but we’re also the two girl Triad as the Dyad! Behind what some think is pure fun and cuddles is the blade. Dio I've had the etiquette of a hime setting up our date to represent Prime properly, but when all the presentation is over, you'll see the Oni!
Narumi makes a spooky "boo" noise as the Senshi of the Blade smile and take off their jackets to return to being the normal Senshi of the Blade as the scene ends with Narumi flashing the PRIMETime Briefcase.

Nina Samson
Vs Dio
Match Writer: prime
We return to ringside where we see Hayley.
Kushnir: As Senshi Of The Blade sit prepare to take notes, Ladies and gentlemen, our Indy Champion, Dio, is in action now as he takes on Nina Samson.
Reid: following match is set for one fall. Joining us first, from Dallas, Texas and weighing in at 122 pounds ... NINA SAMSON!
The lights inside the arena change to a bluish purple color as "More Than You Think I Am" begins to play over the sound system. The crowd is slowly starting to cheer as Nina Samson walks out onto the stage. Her eyes shift from side to side before she descends down the ramp. She high fives a few people in the front row before sliding into the ring. She walks around the inside for one full rotation before standing onto the closest turnbuckle. She smacks the top pad a few times before slipping both her arms out wide as the crowd is chanting her name. She proceeds to do a backflip before standing in the corner and waiting.
Reid: And the opponent, residing in Seattle, Washington and weighing in at 205 pounds the EWC Indy Champion, 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.

Nina rolls to the apron before throwing herself back into the ring hitting Dio with a Slingshot Body Press.

Reid: And your winner, via pinfall ... DIO!!!
Evans: Sometimes in life you only get one opportunity. Tonight Dio was able to use his and he walks away with the win.
Kushnir: As Dio takes the win all the way to Youngblood, I have to feel for Nina Samson here. If a moment or two had gone her way tonight, we could be watching Nina celebrating a huge win right now.
Dio holds his championship in the air and motions to the camera 'Narumi, you want it, come take it. I dare you'
Evans: Seems the champion is ready for his next challenger
Kushnir: I know I'm ready. But who else is ready for our main event as it's coming up next
The camera cuts to ...
SINGLES MATCH
ROOKIE SHOWCASE
PATRICK JAMES
Vs DALILAH ASHE
Match Writer: prime
We return to ringside where we see Hayley with a cloth over her face.
Evans: Don't mind her, she's recovering from the last match. She'll be fine in a moment as it's time for our Main Event!
Reid: The following match, set for one fall, is your main event of the evening. Joining us first, hailing from Orlando, Florida and weighing in tonight at 220 pounds ... PATRICK JAMES!
Patrick comes out as Another Brick in the Wall plays. He has a smile and has his head down looking at his phone for a few moments before raising it and waving to fans. He raises his head up and looks out at the crowd with a small smile now ignoring his phone as he walks down the rest of the ramp. Going around the ring he takes a final look at his phone and types a couple things before setting it on the table and climbing in the ring.
Reid: And the opponent, from out of the Darkness of your Desires, she is the most Beautiful of Tragedies, the Sweetest of the Deadly Sins and the Last Temptation that you will ever need. She is the Vicious Mistress:
DALILAH ASHE
Committed by One-Eyed Doll begins to play and a purple glow illuminates the arena and a violet mist rises from the stage bringing with it the smell dying roses.
Just Another Mental Patient
How I wish this Room Was Vacant
Can't Seem To Break Through These Padded Walls
How I wish this Room Was Vacant
Can't Seem To Break Through These Padded Walls
The curtain parts as Dalilah Ashe appears wearing a crown of black roses and thorns which prick her pale brow bringing small drops of dark red blood. She opens her arms to hold the crowd in the long cold embrace of her contempt.

Locked Up in this Nuthouse Crying
All these Drugs My Brain is Frying
Doctor Says the Lunatic Needs More
Cocking her head to one side and holding her arms stiff at her sides she begins a long zombie walk to the ring, followed closely by her handler Lacey Savage. Climbing stiffly up onto the apron she looms over the audience like some ancient goddess of lust and death. She smiles down at them, slowly wetting her painted lips with the tip of her tongue before throwing her head back with a mocking laugh. She slides between the ropes with an evil expression to stare down her opponent with a wicked grin and nothing but bad intentions.
Strap Me Down they Must Sedate Me
Poke Me, Prod Me, Irritate Me
No Choice but to be the Needle's Whore
DING DING DING
They meet in the middle of the ring and Ashe puts her hand on James' chest. She runs a finger down his torso until reaching his waist.

Ashe gets to her feet and James boots her in the gut and underhooks her arms for an Inside Info. Ashe wriggles free and looks at James with fear in her eyes. She pus her hand on his chest again and slowly moves closer to him. Ashe stands right in front of him and kisses him on the cheek. She runs her hand across James as she walks around him kissing his shoulders and back. She pulls his head back and kisses him again. A Kiss Before Dying. She drives him to the canvas and makes the cover.

Evans: James came close to victory here tonight but Ashe was able to pick up the win here tonight. Although, I'd never fall for anything that obvious.
Kushnir: You look sexier than usual tonight. How about you and me in the hotel room in half an hour?
Evans: I do? Right, this was great and all. See you in New Zealand next time on Prime!
