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

EWC

Fireworks emit outside Allianz Stadium and then all around the ring while a fog machine covers the venue in a red, green, orange and blue haze! Fans stand up, pumping their fists and raising signs as the camera feed pans to each one of them.

One last round of fireworks blast out now, and we turn our attention to Marcus Woo and Valentina Gomez.

Woo: Ladies and gentlemen, we are here at capacity here inside Allianz Stadium in Turin, Italy for one of EWC’s most beloved new Pay-Per-Views, this is the third YoungBlood, an event that celebrates, showcases and puts the entire focus on the newer talent in the EWC! As always, next to me is the ever so wonderful, Valentina Gomez, and I am Marcus Woo, thank you for joining us!

Gomez: It's so very rare these days that newer Superstars are showcased in this way, so I'm excited for tonight. The EWC has a lot of newer talent that might not yet be recognized names, but after tonight, there might be some new posters going up on some walls.

Woo: That's right Valentina, we've learned from the previous two YoungBlood Pay-per-views that you can make one heck of an impact here with the entire world watching! And what a card we have lined up for these amazing Italian fans tonight! Rampage and Paramount are going to go to war with Tommy Burton taking on Isabella with brand pride on the line, and we're going to revisit an old feud when Roozilla takes on Adriana Aquilla!

Gomez: Those should both be fierce match-ups! We've got tag-team action as well here tonight, Xander Wolfe teams up with Josh Gavin to take on Marcus St John and Paramount's newest Broadcast Champion, James Keaton. And speaking of Paramount, it's Paramount versus Brawl in singles competition as Tenjitsu goes up against Hazel Overton.

Woo: But we're not stopping there! Lorenzo is going to go one-on-one with newcomer Austin Allen in a Prime Vs. Paramount match, and we've got a big Prime vs Rampage match as well with Megumi stepping across the ring from Tane Sua!

Gomez: Then things are going to get really extreme, as we do 'Three The Hard Way' to see who ends up with an X Division Championship match at WrestleFest, it's gonna be "Headhuntress" Aiya, Amber Lisa Hall and Snoop Solano! That match is sure to be brutal! Then we'll have the newly formed three member Southern Express, as they just added Jamie Love to their ranks, in a six man tag-team match against Sabotage, that's Tyler Bradford and Eddie Dozier and their new ally Gideon Gage! And all of that leads to our main event!

Woo: That's right, our main event tonight is a huge EWC Indy Championship LADDER MATCH! Dio will defend his championship live here tonight against Narumi Tstusumi who is cashing in her PrimeTime briefcase for a title match! That match is going to be absolutely unbelievable! But before we get going, what's happening on the stage?

"Coming Undone" by Korn begins to blast over the speakers in the stadium and the fans of Italy begin to chant and cheer

Woo: Here we go .. our President .. Danny Mac .. is going to share some words with the fans here tonight and the millions watching around the world!

President Mac makes his way down to the ring

Gomez: We saw him make some huge announcements at the EWC Rumble, I wonder what he's got in store for us here tonight!?

Mac: Ciao a tutti. Benvenuto in YOUNGBLOOD. Grazie per averci. Ti amo moltissimo.

The largely Italian crowd erupts in cheers, chanting Mac and EWC simultaneously

Mac: We love being here in Italy, we strive to make it here every season. You're all such wonderful hosts. I want to personally thank each and every one of you for being here tonight, and for all those who are watching via EWCTV, the EWC Network and whatever other provider you are using. YOUNGBLOOD is a relatively new event for us, this is our third one, and the fact you have all embraced it as much as you have, means so much to me, the crew and all the newer Superstars we have in the EWC right now.

The crowd cheers and chants once again

Mac: In the EWC we support and celebrate our newer Superstars. We know how hard it is to break into this industry, to become a household name, to land on the walls of our fans as posters, or other memorabilia. So it was important to me, to find a way to constantly give opportunity after opportunity for our newer stars to be seen, to be showcased and to shine. This night is for them. This night is for you. Thank you for the support, I hope you enjoy the show!

Mac smiles as the fans continue to chant and cheer

Woo: Nobody gets the EWC fans pumped and ready for another awesome pay-per-view like the boss, President Mac!

Gomez: Let's get this action underway, I can't wait any longer! We'll be back after we hear from EWC TV!

The fans continue to chant and cheer as we fade to a brief word from EWCTV.

We come back from the EWCTV advert to a reprise of the intro from World Wide III, in which The Senshi of the Blade are shown taking bows towards the SEC Centre.

As they rise, it transitions to them rising in real-time in front of the Allianz Stadium, showing their backs. Megumi is now blonde in a yukata and Narumi wields the PRIMETime Briefcase with a snake-themed kimono.

Narumi: It’s the big night Megumi-chan, you’re getting to fight on this PPV all on your own!

Megumi: And you’re in the main event!

It shows their smiling faces. Both are excited for the big night and happy over how much has changed just within these number of months. Megumi takes a bite into her snacks, and Narumi’s eyes gleam with contacts that resemble the Nure-onna snake yokai as she sees herself on a nearby poster.

Narumi: Who would have thought? Our training and efforts have paid off to bring us all the way here. I feel like we can become supernovas.

Megumi: This is the battlefield where rookies can make a name for themselves by showcasing their talents. Tonight, we show the EWC our strength.

Narumi: The ritual chant served me well at World Wide, may you open with it again? For both of us this time.

Megumi nods. The best girls, best training buddies, best friends take a bow towards each other.

Megumi: GANBARU! (Translation: Persist/Persevere)

Narumi: OSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! (Translation: Confirmation/Yes, extended to ‘s’ to mimic a snake.)

Megumi grips her wooden katana, and Narumi, in turn, grips her briefcase. This time, both women pat the other on the back, and they dash forward together towards the arena as we cut back to ringside.

SINGLES MATCH

RAMPAGE VS PARAMOUNT
"The Inmate" Tommy Burton
Vs "La Belicista" Isabella

MATCH WRITER: Grace Holt

We return to ringside where Matt Glover is standing inside the ring. He is testing all the turnbuckle pads making sure everything is secure.

Woo: Here we go folks, it's time for the action to pick up and we have good one for you tonight. This is also a chance for Paramount to get a little redemption from Parabellum as we have Rampage versus Paramount.

Gomez: You said it Marcus. You have two individuals known for their mixed martial arts style so this should be filled with all kinds of strikes and throws.

Dobrev: The following match is scheduled for one fall, joining us first, from Tijuana, Mexico, weighing in at 164 pounds ... "LA BELICISTA" ISABELLA

As "War" by Sick Puppies blasts over the PA, a large red plume of smoke conceals the top of the ramp. The Mexican flag appears on the X-Tron as a shadow appears in the lingering fog. Red pyros shoot off into the air as we see “La Belicista” Isabella’s silhouette. Moments later, another figure appears. As the smoke begins to clear away, we see Isabella's manager, Alejandro De La Rosa, standing beside her.

Isabella strides confidently down towards the ramp with Alejandro in tow, giving high-fives to the fans and audience along the way. When “La Belicista” Isabella arrives in front of the ring, Alejandro pulls the middle and uppermost set of ropes, allowing "La Belicista" to slip through them.

Isabella then stands atop the same ropes she slid through. She clenches her right fist and raises it high up in the air. Her left, meanwhile, raises as she salutes to the EWC audience. After soaking in the reaction and atmosphere, “La Belicista” jumps off the ropes, lands gracefully on her feet, and turns to wait against the turnbuckle whilst waiting for her opponent to arrive.

Dobrev: And her opponent, from New Brunswick, Canada, weighing in at 209 pounds ... TOMMY "THE INMATE" BURTON

The drum beat. The scream of the guitar… The unmistakable sound of Nirvana.

As the lights dim slightly, the orange strobe of the lower stage lights strobe over the hooded man walking out. His hardened jaw. His mouthguard. His taped hands clenched hard as he makes his way down to the ring.

As "Scentless Apprentice" plays, and the lights come up, we see Tommy Burton pull back his hood and remove his Club jacket. His eyes wide… crazy looking. His young body looking battle ready, and somehow already battle worn at the same time. He’s looking at nothing it seems, as always just… staring. In moments he knows, and the fans are about to know… his eyes will fill with determination, and even deeper behind that… rage. Controlled rage. Barely controlled rage.

As the music starts to lower, and Tommy removes his hoodie and drops it to the mat, he clenches his hands together… the words “let’s fuckin do this” is barely heard behind his mouth guard…

DING DING DING

Isabella doesn't get much time to strategize as Tommy Burton come flying at her and connects with a Stinger splash. Isabella slumps in the corner as Tommy begins to connect with kick after kick to her chest. Each kick lands with precision as Isabella is trying to cover up. Tommy backs up a bit before charging at her again. He leaves his feet with hopes of landing another stinger splash. However Isabella has other plans as she catches him out of the air before dropping right down with a vicious uranage. Tommy bows his back as Isabella fires off a few stomps of her own. She goes to pick him up but he counters with a very quick belly to belly suplex.

Isabella flies across the ring as Tommy quickly kips up to his feet. He bounces off the ropes while connecting with a sliding knee to the lower half of Isabella's back. Isabella lets out a grunt as Tommy latches his arms around her waist while applying a lot of pressure onto her lower back. Isabella is writhing in pain as she works her way back up to a vertical base. She tries to break the strong grip of Burton but nothing seems to be working. That is until she runs toward the turnbuckle, ducks her head as Tommy's head smacks off the turnbuckle. The shot causes him to loosen his grip as she takes control over one of his arms before flipping him over her back then connecting with an immediate leg drop across his throat.

Woo: The Inmate tried to catch Isabella by surprise, but La Belicista bounced right back and adjusted well to bring the fight right back to Tommy Burton and we are very evenly matched here in the early goings!

Gomez: This just shows you how talented both of these fighters are, Marcus. It takes a special sixth sense to be that aware of your surroundings!

Isabella is already back up to a vertical base as she wraps her arms around Tommy's waist. She lifts Tommy up off the canvas before twisting him around in the air before dropping back down in a seated powerbomb. The back of Tommy's head bounces off the canvas as Isabella quickly goes for a quick cover. Just Matt gets into position, Tommy throws his arm out as Isabella grabs it before driving her knee right down onto it. Tommy grabs his arm as Isabella grabs it again and slams it repeatedly into the canvas. Isabella is holding the arm in her hand while stepping one leg over it before dropping all of her weight right down on top of it.

Tommy grunts while grabbing his arm as Isabella goes to pull him up off the canvas. She looks to send him off toward the ropes but Tommy counters by pulling her into a spinning back elbow. The tip of his elbow catches her flush against her nose as Tommy follows up with another elbow in the exact same spot. Isabella goes to check her nose as Tommy slips behind her while wrapping his arms around her waist. Right as he does, he pops his hips before sending her overhead with a picture perfect German suplex. Tommy doesn't release his hands as he twirls his legs and gets right back up into a vertical base. He manages to move to the side of Isabella while moving his hands up into a full nelson type hold. Right as he does, he leaps forward while driving Isabella face first into the canvas with a full nelson bulldog. He immediately places his forearm across her jaw while pinning her shoulders to the canvas.

ONE...

Isabella shoots her arm up after the count of one. Tommy shakes his head while trying to transition into a cross armbreaker.

Woo: Smart move there by Tommy Burton. Making Isabella expend more energy to kick out by putting more pressure on her upper body.

Gomez: He's not done, either! Tommy is looking to transition from the pinning attempt with an arm breaker!

Isabella is doing everything she can to keep Tommy from locking in the armbreaker. Tommy has his legs wrapped around her arm but Isabella manages to roll herself up to where her body is off the ground. Tommy maintains his legs around her arm as Isabella uses a lot of her strength to hoist him up before dropping right back down onto his head. Tommy's head whiplashes off the canvas as Isabella proceeds to drive multiple rights into his sternum. The fifth right catches him flush in the ribs as he quickly lets go of the arm. Isabella is trying to shake life back into her arm as Tommy catches her with a spinning roundhouse to the side of the head. Isabella drops to the canvas as Tommy quickly picks her back up. He whips her off toward the corner where she hits the turnbuckles hard with her back.

Tommy comes charging looking to drive his knee through her but she manages to get her boot up at the last second. Tommy's head snaps back as he eats the boot full force. Isabella climbs herself up to the second rope before leaping off them and wrapping her legs around Tommy's neck before throwing him across the ring. Isabella gets back up to her feet and cracks her neck. Tommy is slowly getting back up to his feet as well.

Woo: He just went flying across the ring!

Gomez: Not by choice either. I'd be getting up slowly too after that.

Tommy cracks his neck before sprinting towards Isabella who catches him with a quick powerslam. Isabella follows it up with a quick elbow drop before going for another cover.

ONE...

TWO...

Tommy kicks his legs out as Isabella gets back up to her feet. She runs toward the ropes. Right as she rebounds off them, Tommy Burton catches her with a quick spinning back elbow. The shot causes Isabella to stagger a little as Tommy hoists her up onto his shoulders. He lifts her up off his shoulders before driving his knee through the side of her head. Isabella falls to the ground as Tommy motions that it's over.

Woo: This one could be done, folks!

Gomez: Tommy Burton seems to think it is!

Tommy picks Isabella up off the canvas looking for something big but he gets hit with a quick knee to the gut. Isabella gives him a quick smile before striking with a sudden SNAFU. Tommy drops to the canvas as Isabella quickly goes for the cover.

ONE...

TWO...

THREE!!!

DING DING DING

Dobrev: And your winner, via pinfall... "LA BELICISTA" ISABELLA

Isabelle smirks while getting back up to her feet. She raises her hand as Tommy slips out of the ring.

Woo: What a match we just witnessed! Every one will have to follow this match up. Tommy tried his best but Isabella got the better of him tonight.

Gomez: Tommy Burton is truly one hell of an athlete but Isabella is truly one of the best. I see championship gold in both of their futures.

Woo: Great contest here, and now we get ready for our next match as Roozilla takes on Addy Aquilla

Gomez: Before we get there however, it's come to our attention that there's some commotion up in the skybox!

With that, we cut away from ringside to see what all the hubbub is about ...

As Isabella continues to celebrate in the ring, the feed cuts to one of Allianz Stadium’s skyboxes, and the crowd cheers as Ace King takes a seat, the Undisputed Championship on one side of him and his newly-won Tag Team Championship on the other.

Ace King: You’re only as old as you feel, right?

The double Champion offers a smirk and a shrug as he leans back in his seat, the fans perhaps still a bit surprised to see him.

Ace King: Now, obviously, I’ve been around just a bit too long to be eligible for YoungBlood as a competitor, but I feel like it’s important for me to still be here.

Ace offers a withering glance out toward the ring from his box, still taking in the approval from the crowd as he leans over the rail of his box.

Ace King: Though the roles are obviously reversed now, it takes me back to being a ‘rookie’ myself all those years ago. Coming into EWC, YoungBlood wasn’t around, so it was about watching the standard-bearers of the time like Luke Wolfe… Like Drake… Like Xplode, God rest the souls of the latter two…

The double Champion pauses briefly in silent contemplation before clearing his throat.

Ace King: But it’s also a reminder that, even though it may not seem obvious at the time, there’s always something special happening within the EWC walls, and you’re seeing the future before your very eyes. The original YoungBlood, as an example. Need I remind you of Melody Malone and Scorpio?

The crowd boos both competitors vehemently as the double Champion pauses to let the fans have their say.

Ace King: Love them or hate them, they stole the show that night. Within five months, both had become the Undisputed Champion, which makes this show almost more important than some others: This is where the future icons of EWC are truly born…

‘The Gambler’ slowly rises from his seat, raising both his championships high to the delight of the Azzurri fans.

Ace King: ...But make no mistake, I’m still the here and now, and I’m not planning on relinquishing that place any time soon, so let’s see who’s ready to try and raise the bar here in EWC.

The fans get excited as Ace puts his hands on the skybox rail, then launches himself over the top, landing on a platform a few feet below amidst a sea of fans, content to watch the rest of the show within the stadium itself as we go back to ringside!

SINGLES MATCH

A HEATED FEUD REVISTED

Roozilla

Vs Adriana Aquilla

MATCH WRITER: Ace King

We open on the announce desk where Marcus Woo smiled down the camera ..

Woo: Well, folks, this may not be the Thrilla in Manila, but a fantastic night of action is about to continue with Roozilla against Aquilla!

Gomez: Really, they should have fought in a villa, with the soundtrack of ‘Hava Nagila’.

Woo: These two certainly have their history with one another, and I know I’m curious to see who will emerge victorious.

“Meet Me in the Dark” by Otherwise begins to play as the lights dim to a dark hue of purples mixed with blue. Roozilla stands at the entrance ramp with his back turned to the ring. He stands quietly with his arms down to his side as he takes his heavy breaths before turning his torso backwards towards the audience and the ring.

Dobrev: The following contest is scheduled FOR ONE FALL! Making his way to the ring, FROM Rule Breaker University, weighing in AT 239 pounds… ‘The Roozy One’... ROOOOOZILLLAAAAAAA!!!

He turns and looks out into the crowd surveying his surroundings before rearing backwards arching his shoulders as his arms raise as he howls like a bewildered beast. With his motions loud growls by Godzilla are heard over his entrance theme.

Directly after his beat roar both his manager and valet Babyface Badley and Jules Cassidy walk up to his side as they begin walking towards the ring.

Woo: It’s been a little while since we’ve seen Roozilla in action, but if there’s one thing we’ve learned about The Roozy One, it’s that he’s always got a trick up his sleeve.

Gomez: He can be ruthless, there's no doubt about it.

The jeers of the crowd entices him to mock fans as he walks down the aisle. He steps onto the steps and then the ring apron. He turns with his back to the ropes and again makes mocking gestures towards the audience. He turns, placing both hands onto the top rope and springs into the ring. His manager and valet both stay on the outside of the ring as his music ends with him acting as though he's going to backhand the referee and then laughs as he backs away towards his corner.

After a brief silence, the crowd’s reaction turns decidedly positive as the opening riff to "Iron" by Within Temptation hits the speakers and the crowd comes to their feet as the lights flash around the arena before finally, Adriana comes out from the back ready for her big match.

Dobrev: And his opponent, FROM San Antonio, Texas, weighing in AT 120 pounds… She is "Lo Divino" Adriana Aquilla!

Adriana makes her way down to the ring mouthing the lyrics to her theme song along the way, as she enters the ring she removes her jacket before yelling out "THE WAR IS COMING" in time with her song before jumping over the top rope and rolling into the ring before posing on one knee with her arms outstretched at her sides.

Woo: Meanwhile, Lo Divino comes into Italy after a dominant win over Tenjitsu on Paramount 13, and she’ll look to keep her momentum going here!

Gomez: But this is entirely different, Marcus; Addy is fully aware of how she’s failed to step up on these kinds of stages, so if she’s going to take the next step, coming away from here with a win will be crucial.

Aquilla immediately locks in on Roozilla as they draw closer to the middle of the ring, but Roo’s ready to go, using the referee as a decoy to throw salt directly into Addy’s eyes! The crowd boos vehemently as Roo begins an early onslaught before the bell rings, raining shots down before the referee can finally pull him off! The Roozy One just laughs as he’s pushed back to his corner while Aquilla gets to one knee.

Woo: Just a disgusting display from Roozilla, and we’re not even underway yet.

Gomez: He’s from Rule Breaker University, do you really think he cares?

Once Aquilla catches her breath and has her vertical base again, the referee throws it to the timekeeper, and this one’s officially underway!

DING DING DING

There’s certainly no love lost between these two as Aquilla immediately takes the offensive to Roozilla, backing him into the ropes with a flurry of punches and kicks! The Roozy One tries to beg off, even ducking his upper body between the top and middle ropes to try and get the referee to initiate a break while Aquilla keeps pushing forward. However, as the referee intervenes, a smirk crosses Roozilla’s face, reaching around and jabbing a thumb into Addy’s throat! Aquilla starts coughing and turns away; Roozilla puts his hands up when the referee questions him about it, yelling “SHE’S CHOKING ON ANOTHER PAY-PER-VIEW!”

Woo: Far from a sporting display there from Roozilla, though it’s gotten him an early advantage here.

Gomez: You don’t exactly expect a sporting display from someone who literally has Garfield in his name.

As Aquilla again gets her breath, The Roozy One is as remorseless as it gets, his arms outstretched as he steps forth with a rather cocky stride in his step. The referee brings the match back in, and a more traditional restart follows, with Aquilla and Roozilla locking up in the middle of the ring. Roozilla initially uses his bigger body to get the advantage and drop Aquilla to a knee, but Addy rolls out of the predicament, sweeping a leg from behind to send Roozilla stumbling!

Having put him off balance, Aquilla quickly pops back to her feet, then launches into a beautifully-executed Dropkick that sends Roozilla into the ropes! Aquilla tries to pull off a Snap Suplex on the rebound, but Roozilla counters into a Neckbreaker, flooring Aquilla as Roozilla drags her into a pinning predicament, putting his feet up on the ropes for extra leverage!

Woo: Roozilla’s trying to end this one early!

Gomez: It would be rather rudimentary if he did.

ONE...

TWO-NOOOOOOOOO

The referee notices Roozilla’s feet on the ropes and immediately stops the count, much to the delight of the crowd and Roozilla’s dismay. The Roozy One immediately gestures to his leg, trying to convince the referee that he needed the extra leverage because of a knee issue, but Aquilla takes the opportunity to slip outside the ring and launch herself onto the top rope before bouncing off to connect with a Springboard Clothesline on Roozilla! The crowd is firmly behind Addy as she somersaults to one knee on the follow-through, though as she gets to her feet, Jules gets up on the ring apron to get in her face. This allows Roozilla to sneak up from behind and rake Addy’s face off the top rope! Aquilla clutches at her face as Roozilla again soaks in the boos from the Turin crowd.

The Roozy One throws his arms out to further incite the crowd, but Aquilla has her wits about her once again, and the hunched over Roozilla turns and eats a Superkick from Addy! With Roozilla down, Aquilla sprints toward the nearest ropes and again launches off the top… MEXICAN DESTROYER! The crowd marvels at the speed of the move while Roozilla flails in the ring! Aquilla scrambles into a quick cover…

ONE…

TWO…

TH-NOOOOOOOO!

The crowd voices its disapproval as Roozilla gets his foot on the bottom rope to deny the pinfall, then quickly pushes Addy off of him, trying to scramble into a Boston Crab, though Aquilla grabs the bottom rope to break it, but not before Roozilla holds it to the brink of the five-count, again inciting the fans in the process.

Woo: You’d think Roozilla was wearing an Inter Milan kit the way these fans are going at him tonight.

Gomez: Roozy makes me wanna get boozy.

Woo: You know we’re in the middle of the show, right?

Gomez: People lapped that stuff up two decades ago!

However, Roozilla isn’t long getting back to work on Aquilla, looking to lock in an Abdominal Stretch! Aquilla doesn’t let him lock it in, though, stomping on The Roozy One’s foot to break free and get herself into an advantageous position. Aquilla spins Roozilla around and quickly hits a Snap Suplex, then sizes up Roozilla as he’s slow to get up. The crowd roars as she signals for Divine Judgement, laboriously working to get Roozilla on her shoulders!

Woo: What strength here from Addy Aquilla! She’s more known for speed and agility, but that’s nearly twice her body weight she’s lifting!

Gomez: The biggest moments are reserved for the biggest stages, and this could be Aquilla’s time!

However, as Aquilla goes to execute, Roozilla gets an arm free and executes Rule No. 1 with the eye rake unseen by the referee, making Aquilla’s knee buckle with the lack of concentration! Roozilla then quickly grabs Aquilla’s arm to cinch in the Legendary Wrist Lock!

Woo: And just like that, Roozilla may have quite literally taken the match into his hands.

Gomez: How long have you been sitting on that one?

Roozilla twists around on Aquilla’s arm with the Legendary Wrist Lock still in place, the Italian crowd showing its displeasure. After another pull on Aquilla’s arm, Roozillla whips her into the ropes, though Aquilla slides out under the bottom rope! Slightly puzzled, Roozilla goes toward the ropes, but Aquilla doesn’t waste any time getting back up onto the apron… AND CONNECTING WITH THE HOJA DE HONDA! The crowd roars its approval as Aquilla drives Roozilla into the canvas with her one good arm while trying to shake out the other.

Woo: This might be just the break Addy’s needed!

Gomez: YOU GO, GIRL!

Aquilla doesn’t waste any time, sizing Roozilla up as he gets back to his feet… THEN IMMEDIATELY CHARGES IN FOR A DIRECT HIT WITH THE DIVINE WIZARD! Roozilla is again flattened, to the approval of the Turin crowd! Aquilla quickly rolls back to her feet, then scrambles to turn Roozilla over onto his stomach before twisting his legs around and locking in Divination right in the middle of the ring!

Woo: Wow, even with just the one good arm, Addy’s got that locked in TIGHT!

Gomez: They know how to tie things up just right in Texas, no doubt.

Tucking Roozilla’s legs underneath her good arm, Aquilla wrenches back on them even more to provide further compression on Roozilla’s lower back! The Roozy One screams in agony, but he’s got nowhere to go… AND HE TAPS OUT!

DING DING DING

Dobrev: Here is your winner, by submission… ‘LO DIVINO’... ADRIANA AQUILLAAAAAA!!!

Woo: She’s done it! Addy’s broken the goose egg on her pay-per-view record!

Gomez: She definitely got the job done, but Roozilla’s efforts here tonight aren’t to be discounted. Addy had to work hard and dig deeper into her arsenal for that win, and I’m sure it makes it that much sweeter.

‘Iron’ by Within Temptation plays once again as Aquilla finally lets go of the hold, allowing the referee to raise her arm! Addy catches her breath and nods along to the music, showing her appreciation for the crowd as the feed cuts backstage…

In the locker room backstage, Josh Gavin is preparing for the Tag Team Showcase match when he is approached by a backstage agent.

Agent: Mr. Gavin, can I have a moment of your time?

Gavin stops and peers back at them, squinting.

Gavin: You've known me for close to a year, Frank. No need for formalities, sheesh. Do I look like a ye 'ol grandpappy to you?

Frank: My apologies. With the next season of the EWC in place, management's been talking about the future with the General Managers, and I thought you'd like to see this!

Frank wheels in a veiled cart.

Frank: Josh, you are officially on the new promotional banners for Rampage!

Frank dramatically pulls off the veil to reveal the new Rampage banner. Gavin squints.

Gavin: ... Where am I exactly?

Frank points to the far left.

Frank: You're right there!

Gavin blinks a few times.

Gavin: I uh... Frank? Do you see anything strange about this banner?

Frank: No, why?

Gavin: Frank, let me be frank with you.

Frank: When did you become Frank?

Gavin: This morning. Anyway, look very closely at that banner. THAT my friend... Is famous movie star Chris Hemsworth. Do I look like Chris Hemsworth to you?

Frank: There is a resemblance there.

Gavin: Thanks, I get that a lot. But uh...

Gavin unties the braid on his long, blonde hair and lets it fall.

Gavin: Do you see it now?

Frank: No, not really. That looks just like you on the banner.

Gavin stares at Frank, and eventually lets out a long, exasperated sigh.

Gavin: Yup, you're right. It looks great, thank you Frank. I need to get ready so uh... See ya.

Frank happily wheels the cart out and Gavin promptly facepalms.

Gavin: Maybe I'll just get a haircut or somethi-nah, my wife will kill me.

He peers at the camera.

Gavin: Anyway. I'll make this short and sweet. Tonight, I team with a man I don't know at all, against a Champion and a guy who's sooner or later going to be one. Quite frank-ly, on paper it looks like 'ol Josh Gavin is up shit's creek and I have no fuckin' idea where the paddle is. But Josh Gavin sees those odds, and he sees one thing... Opportunity. The biggest difference between these two young lions and myself is hunger. They've already tasted that success, but Josh Gavin? Josh Gavin's not satisfied. I said it before, I'll say it again, I want to be a PILLAR for RAMPAGE, a pillar for this COMPANY! And I'm not going to pull that off if I'm cowering in fear because the odds are stacked against me and my back's against the well! No, I see these odds as an opportunity to show the WHOLE DAMN WORLD what Josh Gavin's capable of. And it's about time I got Melody Malone to sit her ass off her throne and see the fire breathing dragon that's about to break down her damn castle. So they can bring these odds, and they can stick 'em. Because Josh Gavin thrives the most when everyone's countin' him out.

Gavin wags his finger.

Gavin: So don't go writing me off just yet. It's high time to make the most of this opportunity, and then when I face off with Melody Malone for the US Title? It's time I got me some bread of my own.

With that final statement, we cut back to ringside!

TAG TEAM SHOWCASE

Xander Wolfe & Josh Gavin

Vs Marcu$ $t John & James Keaton

MATCH WRITER: @cyrusblack

Returning to ringside, we cut to Marcus Woo and Valentina Gomez at commentary!

Woo: Let’s continue with the action, next up we’ve got an intriguing tag team match up! It’s going to be Xander Wolfe and Josh Gavin teaming up against Marcu$ $t. John and the CW broadcast champion James Keaton!!!

Gomez: I’m looking forward to this one, I want to see how these four men can co-exist in a high pressure tag team fight on the big stage! Matches like these always have break out stars. I’m hearing through the grapevine that the paramount pair of Keaton and Marcu$ $t. John are the firm favorites but you can’t write off Gavin and Wolfe… they’ll be desperate to take the win home for their respective brands!

Woo: Well let me ask you this, will the fact that Marcu$ and Keaton are on the same brand and Keaton is carrying a championship that Marcu$ may one day have his sights set on, will that play a part in this match tonight? I mean Gavin and Wolfe are on separate brands, they don’t have to worry about looking over their shoulder at one another. Keaton being a champion means he’s got a permanent target painted on his back and you just know he’s watching Marcu$ at every turn.

Gomez: I have no idea what’s going to happen but I can’t wait to find out! It’s Paramount versus Prime and Rampage, let’s get it on!

Dobrev: The following match is a tag team showcase bout… Joining us first, weighing in at 225 pounds and representing PRIME ...

The lights cut out as the NWO Wolfpac theme starts, after the howl "Of wolf and man" by Metallica hits, Xander Wolfe comes out onto the stage. 'Fuel' by Metallica then blasts over the PA system as Josh Gavin makes his way out to the ramp. They both exchange a nod of the head before making there way down to the ring together.

”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. Then The arena lights begin to flash in tune to the drums as "The Wicked and The Cursed" by The Cold Stares plays throughout the arena. As the guitar rhythm plays, James Keaton makes his presence known by appearing at the top of the entrance ramp, the CW Broadcast championship around his waist.

Marcu$ and Keaton glance at each other before Marcu$ casts his eyes down towards Keatons championship belt. He smiles and pats Keaton on the back before making his way down to the ring, Keaton slowly follows with one hand on his title belt.

DING DING DING

Gavin starts the match off for his team, on the other side of the ring Marcu$ elects himself to kick things off for his team but as soon as the bell rings Keaton leans across the ropes and slaps Marcu$ on the shoulder, tagging himself in. Keaton doesn’t even look at Marcu$ as he gets into the ring. Marcu$ eyeballs him for a second before smiling and exiting the ring.

Woo: Oh did you see that? Keaton tagging himself in right away. Is he trying to show Marcu$ who’s boss perhaps?

Gomez: I like that, that’s why James Keaton is a champion! He’s showing his dominance early on.

Keaton and Gavin lock up, both of them trying to out strength each other. Gavin clocks Keaton in the face with a headbutt and Keaton responds with a strong uppercut. He then spins around Gavin, locking his arms around his waist and tries to lift him back for a German suplex but Gavin throws an elbow back which catches Keaton on the jaw causing him to stumble back towards the ropes. Then as Keaton comes back at him Gavin spins around and floors Keaton with a roundhouse kick.

Gavin picks Keaton up and takes him towards his corner, he tags in Wolfe and the two grab a side of Keaton each and lift him up, keeping him high in the air for a minute but dropping him on the mat with a double vertical suplex.

Woo: Nice teamwork early on by Wolfe and Gavin!

Wolfe picks Keaton up and whips him off the ropes, as Keaton comes back at him Wolfe catches him with a big boot. With Keaton in the mat again Wolfe makes the pin…

Wolfe picks Keaton up to his feet again and before turning and running off of the ropes, he comes back at Keaton with a clothesline but Keaton dodges the move and spins around Wolfe, grabbing him from behind he throws him backwards for a release German suplex! Keaton then picks Wolfe up and hits a perfect northern lights suplex with a bridging pin on him..

Gavin gets into the ring and kicks Keaton in the head breaking up the pin. As the referee gets Gavin back to his corner Keaton rolls over to his corner, standing up he stares Marcu$ out for a moment before tagging him in.

Marcu$ gets to his feet and suddenly pounces towards Wolfe in the corner, catching him with a super kick that sends him flying off the apron and crashing into the side of the announce table.

Marcu$ moves over to his corner and tags Keaton in. Gavin is crawling to his corner as Keaton runs across, jumping over Gavin and hitting Wolfe with an elbow strike to the face and which again sends Wolfe crashing to the outside. Keaton then stamps his foot down on Gavins hand which causes him to let out a loud painful roar. Keaton picks Gavin up, using all his strength he lifts Gavin and plants him back on the mat with a gut wrench powerbomb.

Woo: The power of the CW broadcast champion there was very impressive!

Keaton picks Gavin up again and whips him off the ropes, as Gavin comes back at him he suddenly lunges forward and catches Keaton with his claymore finisher that he calls the Dragelix Kick. Gavin makes pin…

ONE...

THR-the pin is broken up as Gavin is yanked out of the ring by Marcu$!!!

Gomez: It’s Marcu$’s turn to make the match winning save! I thought it was all over there.

Marcu$ whips Gavin into the steel steps before rolling him back into the ring. As the ref is leaning over the ropes and shouting at Marcu$, Wolfe gets into the ring and rushes towards Keaton, hitting him with his On the Hunt spear move! Wolfe rolls out of the ring as the ref turns around and sees both Gavin and Keaton out on the mat.

Gavin eventually throws an arm across Keaton for the pin but Marcu$ sees it coming and tries to get into the ring so the ref tries to stop him and missed the pin. Gavin slowly gets to his feet, an angry look across his face as he pulls Marcu$ into the ring. Keaton is now starting to get to his feet as Marcu$ and Gavin trade blows.

Wolfe gets back into the ring and rushes towards Keaton, he spins around and goes for his spin kick finisher he calls the ending but Keaton ducks and Wolfe catches Gavin in the back of the head with the kick, before Wolfe has time to react Keaton bounces off the ropes and hits his Psycho Crusher finisher on him.

Dobrev: And your winners, via pinfall MARCU$ $T JOHN and JAMES KEATON!!!

As the ref checks on both Wolfe and Gavin, Marcu$ quickly slides out of the ring and grabs the CW Broadcast championship, he gets back into the ring and as he gets to his feet Keaton gets in his face. Marcu$ looks down at the championship in his hands before smiling and handing it to Keaton who never takes his gaze off of Marcu$. Marcu$ winks at Keaton before leaving the ring. Keaton throws the title over his shoulder and continues to stare at Marcu$ as he makes his way up the ramp.

Woo: What a chaotic matchup this was! Congrats to Marcu$ and Keaton but something tells me we haven’t seen the last of those two in a ring together!

Gomez: Definitely not, did you see the way Keaton looked at Marcu$ at the end there, you do not put your hands on another man’s championship! Especially one as dangerous as James Keaton. I’d personally love to see those two square off.

Woo: Who knows what the future will hold. We will be back with more Youngblood action in just a moment, but it seems as though we'll be hearing from Hazel Overton backstage!

With that, we cut away to go backstage!

Cameras cut to the backstage area where Hazel Overton and her publicist Amy Jonas are making their way towards the gorilla position. They are talking over strategy when Pepper Montana walks to them. Hazel sees him as a look of disgust comes over her face.

Hazel Overton: What in the hell do you want Pepper?

Pepper Montana: Do you have a minute to talk about your match?

Hazel rolls her eyes as Amy steps in front of her.

Amy Jonas: Ms. Overton has already spoken her piece on this match. She knows Tenjitsu won't be leaving Italy under his own power.

Pepper Montana: So what is next for you Hazel?

Hazel looks at him with fire in her eyes.

Hazel Overton: And the reward for the stupidest question goes to you. Congratulations, you've made the top one hundred list of complete morons. After I leave that religious bastard searching for his head, my sights will be on championship gold. Tonight, I make a statement when I leave Italy in A HAZE.

Hazel brushes past Pepper as she continues toward the ring...

Let's find out, as we cut to the parking lot!

A dark pink, '85 Corvette pulls into the parking lot. It parks next to other much newer, expensive looking vehicles. Remarkable Mark Keaton exits the drivers side, he runs his hand through his blonde hair and sneers. His eye-patched manager, Astonishing Kevin Fisher exits the passenger side with a cigar in his mouth.

Mark: Here we are dude, Youngblood Six, or Seven. Whatever number they're on. Can't have Youngblood without the youngest and sexiest blood on the roster, Mr. Blonde Dynamo himself, me!

Kevin: Hey, about that. I think we should talk about how the booking department and the head brass works in EWC, Mark. Listen to me for a second.

Mark: Shut it, man! Give me a smoke!

Kevin: We ran out an hour ago.

Mark: Great! The hell am I gonna do now?! You totally know I need my pre match smoke, Kevin! Come on! That's why I hired you! Let's go see who I'm fighting in the main event tonight. Probably some roided out dirtbag like Ace King no doubt. Or Tickles the Clown, whatever the hell his name is.

Mark and Kevin make their way into the backstage area. Mark rudely grabs a chart off of a nearby staff member and looks at the card.

Mark: Kev, you're not gonna believe this dude.

Kevin Fisher shakes his head and covers his good eye.

Mark: They totally gave me the night off! YEEEES! About time they recognized the hardest working EWC star in the company! Come on, let's go buy some beer and watch this shitshow in the stands. Oh, and the beers are on you.

Fisher just shakes his head as they make their exit, before we cut back to ringside!

SINGLES MATCH

Lorenzo
Vs Austin Allen

MATCH WRITER: Grace Holt

We return to ringside where Nina Dobrev is standing inside the ring getting ready for the next contest.

Woo: Here we go, two of our brightest stars collide next. Lorenzo from Prime and Austin Allen from Paramount are going to be doing battle.

Gomez: Can Lorenzo actually pull off a win tonight? Head to head, Paramount has proven to have Prime's number.

Dobrev: The following match is scheduled for one fall, Joining us first, from South Los Angeles, California, weighing in at 185 pounds ... LORENZO

Livin La Vida Loca hits the PA system and Lorenzo walks out onto the stage rotating his hips a bit. On his left Jamie is rolling his eyes while on his right Maria Love is absentmindedly swiveling her own hips in time to the music. They all walk to the ring with Lorenzo rolling under the ropes and leaning against the ring ropes talking to Jamie as he waits for his opponents

Dobrev: And his opponent, from Salt Lake City, Utah, weighing in at 210 pounds ... AUSTIN ALLEN

The lights dim as the intro to "Tear Away" by Drowning Pool is playing. The stage is shining a spotlight in the center of the stage, awaiting the presence of Austin Allen to arrive.

"I'm tearing away...
Pieces are falling, I can't seem to make them stay...
YOUUUUU RUN AWAY!
FASTER AND FASTER YOU CAN'T SEEM TO MAKE THEM STAY..."

The spotlight goes away for a brief moment.

"BREAAAAAAKK!"

The lights flash with the spotlight re-appearing on the stage once again; this time, with Austin Allen standing in the spotlight with his arms spread open, smiling and accepting the love and hate from the audience with open arms. He chuckles and looks around, setting his arms down. He proceeds to blow a kiss to the crowd, waving at them as all eyes are on him. He adjusts his jacket and walks down to the ring, spreading his arms open again, radiating the energy the crowd brings to him.

He laughs all the way down the ramp and walks up the steps when he reaches ringside. He climbs up on the ropes slowly, looks around the audience and lets out a big laugh as he spreads his arms open while the lyrics proceed to sing:

"I don't care about anyone else but me; I don't care about anyone!"

He jumps down from the ropes and circles the ring with his arms still spread open. He stops in the center of the ring with his arms still spread, looks up and takes a deep breath in while he smiles; raiding that "everyone loves me!" energy in the ring. He takes off his jacket, hands it kindly to the referee for them to fold it nicely for him and to discard it out of the ring without any damage whatsoever to the expensive item. He adjusts his glove and kneepads and gets ready for action inside of the ring.

Woo: Both men look extremely focused here tonight and only time will tell who will come out on top.

DING DING DING

The match is underway as Austin and Lorenzo step out of their respective corners. They begin to circle each other as the live Italian crowd is split down the middle. On the third rotation, the two men meet in the center with a collar elbow tie up. Both men jockey for position as neither man seem to have a clear advantage. Austin breaks the stalemate with a clear forearm shot across the face. Lorenzo rubs his jaw as he comes back with a forearm of his own. Both men begin to trade forearm shots until Lorenzo manages to gain the upper hand by striking with a wicked body blow with his left hand. Austin bends slightly as Lorenzo wraps his arms around Austin's head and begins to drive his knees into the man's skull. Each blow lands with such precision as Lorenzo follows the knee strikes with a judo style hip toss. Lorenzo smirks a little while patting himself on the back. Austin is beginning to get back up to his feet as Lorenzo runs toward him, places his foot on his back, leaps up while twisting in the air and landing with his elbow directly across Austin's back.

The crowd is in awe of the sequence as Lorenzo quickly shoots the half and slams his forearm across Austin's face repeatedly. He gets back up to a vertical base, sprints toward the ropes but as he rebounds off them. Austin drops down in front of him which causes Lorenzo to step over him while sprinting towards the other side. Austin pushes himself back up to a vertical base. As Lorenzo is coming towards him, Austin leaps in the air while connecting his right heel to side of Lorenzo's face. Lorenzo falls to canvas as Austin follows the heel kick with a sliding knee to the side of Lorenzo's head. Lorenzo is holding his head as Austin picks up off the canvas. He drags him over towards the turnbuckles and begins to smack Lorenzo's face into the canvas. Each time he does it, the crowd is counting out loud.

Woo: Crowd getting behind Austin.

Gomez: Six, Seven, Eight...

Austin continues to slam Lorenzo's face into the turnbuckle as the crowd has gotten louder. Austin looks to do it one more time but Lorenzo sticks his leg up onto the turnbuckle. He slams his elbow into Austin's ribs, grabs Austin by the head and slams him face first into the same turnbuckle. Austin staggers as Lorenzo uses the middle rope as a springboard to wrap his legs around Austin's head and throws him across the ring with a hurricanrana. Austin bounces on his back before popping back up to his feet. He is standing groggily as Lorenzo comes sprinting at him. He doesn't quite get out of the way as Lorenzo connects with a shotgun dropkick which sends Austin back first into the turnbuckles. Austin smacks hard as Lorenzo is back up to his feet. He begins to stomp Austin in the corner as Linda Vine, the referee, is telling him to get Austin out of the corner. Lorenzo gives Linda the middle finger while stepping back a bit.

He grabs a hold of Austin's legs and pulls him up into the air. Lorenzo is looking to just slam Austin on his back but Austin lands right on his feet. As soon as he lands on his feet, he leaps back up while catching Lorenzo with an enzuigiri to the temple. The kick catches Lorenzo flush as he rolls out of the ring. He is holding his head while slowly getting up to his feet. Austin grips the top rope and uses them to fling himself out of the ring. On the way down, he does catch Lorenzo with a vicious forearm shot. Lorenzo drops back down as Austin gets up to his feet. He places his hands on the apron while repeatedly driving his boots into the sternum of Lorenzo.

Linda is telling both men to get back in the ring. Austin ignores her while picking Lorenzo up off the arena floor. He looks Lorenzo in the face, drapes his arm over his shoulder before picking Lorenzo up and dropping him chest first onto the side of the ring. Lorenzo let's out a loud gasp as Austin quickly rolls into the ring then he rolls right back out to the floor.

Woo: I felt that in my chest

Gomez: Where in the hell is Austin going? Take the count out win.

Linda is still yelling at the two men while starting her count over. Austin shrugs his shoulders while going to pull Lorenzo up to his feet. As he is doing so, Lorenzo strikes with something small to the side of Austin's head. Austin immediately grabs his head as Lorenzo discards the item before getting back up to his feet. Austin is still staggering as Lorenzo grabs him by the neck and rams him face first into the steel ring post. Austin's head bounces off the ring post as Lorenzo grabs him by the hair and goes to throw him into the ring. Austin counters with a quick elbow to Lorenzo's sternum before grabbing Lorenzo's arm and slams it down onto the ring apron.

Lorenzo is holding his arm as Austin starts throwing rights into the bicep and tricep area. Lorenzo tries to use his good arm to shove Austin off. He does manage to get some separation before Austin takes Lorenzo by the neck. He goes to shove Lorenzo into the ring post but Lorenzo has other ideas as he counters with vicious back elbows with his injured arm.

Woo: Desperation move by Lorenzo there.

Gomez: Smart move by Austin though. Forcing Lorenzo to use the weakened arm.

Lorenzo takes the moment to roll back into the ring while trying to shake some feeling back into his arm. Austin follows Lorenzo back into the ring but gets met with a vicious kick to the gut. Austin is holding his stomach as Lorenzo continues to lay boots into the midsection. Lorenzo backs away as Austin works his way up to his knees. At that moment, Lorenzo comes back with a flying side kick to the side of Austin's head. Lorenzo is all smiles as he mounts Austin and begins to fire rights and lefts down onto him.

Austin is doing his best to cover up as Lorenzo gets back up to his feet before firing off another stomp to the chest. Lorenzo picks Austin up off the canvas and looks to shoot him off towards the ropes. Austin counters the Irish whip with one of his own. Lorenzo ducks under a clothesline attempt but gets caught with a slingblade. The back of Lorenzo's head smacks hard against the canvas as Austin goes for a quick cover.

1!
2!!

Lorenzo just does roll his shoulder up before Linda's hand struck the canvas for a third time. Austin gets back up to his feet and stands in the corner. He slaps his leg one time before stomping it repeatedly on the canvas. As he is doing this, Lorenzo is slowly getting back up to his feet. Austin comes out of the corner looking to take Lorenzo's head off but Lorenzo ducks at the last second. Austin staggers forward before turning around into the waiting arms of Lorenzo who grabs Austin around his waist before flipping backwards and landing directly on top of Austin. The crowd is shocked that Lorenzo was able to hit the Spanish Fly seemingly out of nowhere. Lorenzo quickly reaches back and grabs Austin's leg for a cover of his own.

1!

2!!

Linda's hand is inches away from the canvas as Austin just does get his shoulder up.

Woo: I thought that was it!

Gomez: That was two and seven and a half eighths. Any closer and Linda Vine's hand is touching canvas and that bell is ringing.

Lorenzo is glaring at Linda before getting back up to his feet. He does a cutthroat type of taunt before getting into position while waiting for Austin to get back up to his feet. Austin slowly begins to stir as Lorenzo is ready to come unglued. Austin slowly turns around as Lorenzo kicks him right into the gut before spiking his head directly into the canvas. Lorenzo quickly pops back up to his feet, leaps up onto the top rope and come right back down with the Spanish Star. Lorenzo quickly hooks the far leg of Austin as Linda slides into position.

1!

2!!

3!!!

DING DING DING

Dobrev: And your winner, via pinfall... LORENZO

Lorenzo's music blares as he makes it back up to his feet. He throws his arm into the air as Austin rolls himself out of the ring. Lorenzo continues to celebrate as Austin slowly makes his way back up the ramp.

Woo: Lorenzo finally got a win under his belt. Now let's see if this will propel him into something bigger. Austin has nothing to be ashamed about for his performance. This match could have gone either way.

Gomez: I totally agree with you. Lorenzo impressed the hell out of me tonight and that's not easy to do. Austin will be a champion here in EWC. I just hope we get a round two with these two very soon.

Woo: SWhat a match that was! They will be talking about this one online for some time to come.

Gomez: Speaking of talking for some time to come, our own Ace Heart is backstage. Let's see what he has for us.

With that, we cut backstage!

We open up with Ace Heart walking through the Allianz Stadium. He stops in front of a door and knocks on it. As it opens, we see "Headhuntress" Aiya, looking right into Ace's eyes.

Ace Heart: So, Aiya, how are you feeling? Got any last words for your opponents before you step through the ropes?

Aiya smirks as she hears the questions asked to her.

"Headhuntress" Aiya: I'm just going to leave it at this. By the end of that fight? I'll be standing over them both with an 'I told you so' look in my eyes. Because they aren't even remotely close to being ready for this opportunity. And they sure as hell do not want this more than me. I don't care which of them eats the pin, but it will not be me. That's a promise. Oh, and El Pablo? I'll see you soon. Now then ...

She waves bye to Ace before gently closing the door. Ace Heart blinks then walks away, looking for someone else to speak to as we cut back to ringside!

PRIME VS RAMPAGE REVISITED

Megumi
Vs Tane Sua

MATCH WRITER: Samantha "Titaness" Hamilton

We return to ringside where the fight between Lorenzo and Austin Allen has just ended. Although the pay-per-view is about halfway over, the remaining matches, including the one about to begin, are causing the audience to cheer in excitement. We cut to commentary as the ring finishes getting set up.

Woo: Good evening, folks, and welcome back to our third Young Blood Pay-Per-View! We just finished up watching Prime’s Lorenzo face off against one of Paramount’s newest members, Austin Allen! We’re now about to witness Megumi - also from Prime - face off against the massive Tane Sua.

Gomez: Tane has been having a tough time, and will no doubt look to turn the tables in his favor. Megumi definitely has a huge challenge ahead of her, but will her senshi spirit help her find a way that leads to victory? Or will the Clouds of Despair conquer Megumi? Take us away so we can find out, Dobrev!

Dobrev: The following match is for one fall! Joining us first, from Tokyo, Japan weighing in at 130 pounds ... MEGUMI!

Kagerou by ReaL hits and out walks Megumi. She stands at the top of the walkway and throws her arms out. Blue and white streamers pour down on her. Megumi shakes free before making her way down the ramp with a smile on her face.

Dobrev: And her opponent, from The Clouds Of Despair, weighing in at 256 pounds ... TANE SUA!

Tane Sua, is walking from the side of the guerilla position a towel upon his head and his hands taped up as his Music or Primal call echoes throughout the building the crowd on their feet with emotion as they chant for him to wreck everyone. He, leaps into the squared circle before lifting the towel and then eying everyone with a smirk before then standing in a neutralized corner.

Woo: Time for a modern-day, albeit slightly altered, David vs. Goliath fight. Let’s see who wins this time!

DING DING DING

Megumi tries to be a bit more cautious this time around, namely because this is easily one of - if not the - heaviest opponent she’s faced. She knows moves need to be decided upon and calculated carefully. Tane, unfortunately, is not in an overly patient mood. He takes the initiative and charges forward!

… Or maybe this was exactly what Megumi wanted?

Either way, as he charges forward, Megumi attempts to catch him off guard with a Spinning Heel Kick. Tane can’t stop in time to avoid or dodge the attack, but it doesn’t seem like he cares. If anything, he grabs Megumi's leg and lifts her up. Sua tosses Megumi aside easily, like a rag doll. This specific doll, however, is able to move and, as such, rolls to avoid taking too much damage.

Eventually, Megumi is back up on her feet. Seeing as Tane isn’t going to allow her many opportunities to be careful, she decides to throw caution to the wind. Now Megumi runs forward. Tane matches her, attempting to rendezvous half way.

And sure enough … THEY COLLIDE! Each went for a strike in their own rights; Megumi with an Open Handed one and Tane Sua with a Palm Strike! They hit each other and quickly move away! Tane easily deals more damage, but we can still see that despite the height and weight difference, Megumi made quite an impact herself!

Woo: That's a whole lot of man colliding with Megumi there!

Gomez: Don't count Megumi out! She hits like a train apparently.

Tane decides to not only forbid Megumi from taking precautions, but also regaining breath and energy. He reaches down and pulls her forward by the arm, lifting her up and tossing her with an Elevated Judo Throw! Right before Megumi can move away, he attempts to behead her with a Discus Lariat!

Tane goes for an early cover,

ONE...

TW- Megumi gets the shoulder up!

Tane looks visibly frustrated. This time, however, he’s stopped in his attempts to attack Megumi! How? She first kicks hard on his patella, making him move his hand away from Megumi as it grips onto his knee. While he’s holding his aching kneecap, Megumi h hurries over to the ropes. She leaps off with a Meteora and it lands flush!

Megumi hooks the legs. Is this it?!

ONE...

TWO...

Tane Sua kicks out!

Woo: These two warriors are putting on a display here tonight!

Gomez: Tane Sua is pulling out everything he can here, but Megumi seems to have an answer for it all!

Both wrestlers gaze at one another, trying to determine what it’ll take to keep the other down. After they believe they have an idea, they charge forward. Megumi gracefully ducks under Tane’s arm, slipping behind him. He turns around in time to be greeted by a boot to his midsection that does actually make him stumble backwards! The crowd cheers at the impressive display from Megumi!

Sua, meanwhile, looks anything but pleased. He saunters towards Megumi, closing the gap between them. When he’s in reach, he grabs a fistful of Megumi’s hair then headbutts her once … twice … three times!

And then … he unceremoniously drops Megumi.

The camera zooms in and reveals Megumi is indeed busted open. Feeling confident at the display, he hooks the legs!

ONE...

TWO...

TH - NOOOO!

He glares a hole at Megumi who simply stares back in defiance! Sua attempts to reach down to grab Megumi, but she slaps his hand away, then jumps back gracefully to land on her feet and gain distance from her opponent.

Woo: Smart move from Megumi here. She's getting some time to think now

Gomez: Tane looks to be getting just a little frustrated here. What's it going to take for him to win this match?

Megumi hurries forward, going on the offensive. She starts up a barrage of elbow and knee strikes, aiming for anywhere she can hit! Chest! Sternum! Legs! Arms! Now she’s taking a page from Tane’s book and refusing to give him chances to stop her, let alone recover!

Tane takes at least five hard hits before attempting to block some of them. Alas, some is the keyword, and anytime he does block, Megumi simply shifts where she’s attacking.

Knowing he’s gotta resort to other measures, he moves his arms away and gives Megumi a Stiff Elbow to her already bleeding head!

But she remains on her feet! The cries of the audience get louder, encouraging her to keep fighting and hanging on! This alone seems to help fuel her on and heed their words as she goes for the ropes! She leaps off … but this time, Tane catches her!

Primal One (Gutwrench Tiger Driver)!

He covers!

ONE...

TWO...

TH - NOOOOO!

Much to Sua’s frustration, Megumi gets a shoulder up! She’s down, but clearly not out!

Woo: Oh man, Tane cannot believe that Megumi kicked out there!

Gomez: He may have met his match here tonight!

Tane begins lifting Megumi up, going for another attack, but Megumi isn’t have any of it this time! She throws elbows back hard into Sua’s sternum! He tries to keep his hold, but after the fourth elbow, is forced to let go from the pain! Megumi throws an extra kick to his side, just to keep him occupied long enough to head back over to the ropes. She climbs up, looking to leap off once more! Mousou Express (Top Rope Springboard Kick)!

She hooks the legs!

ONE...

TWO...

THREE!!!

DING DING DING

Dobrev: And your winner, via pinfall, MEGUMI!

Megumi holds her forehead with one hand while raising the other happily in the air! Tane shakes his head in disappointment at himself before quietly leaving the ring, heading backstage. We cut to commentary to hear their thoughts.

Woo: What a huge victory for Megumi! Despite the advantages Sua had, she found ways to use them against him and emerge with the win!

Gomez: The Clouds of Despair certainly seemed to hover over Megumi for a bit, but they weren’t strong enough to keep her down.

Woo: Kudos to Megumi for really sticking in there and coming out with the win! Now, in just a moment we're in for X-Division action as Aiya, Amber Lisa Hall, and Snoop Solano face off!

Gomez: Right, but before we get there, I have word that Ace Heart is standing by with the champ himself!

From here, we cut backstage...

Backstage, we find Ace Heart standing by in the interview area with a microphone in hand.

Ace Heart: Members of the EWC Universe, please welcome at this time a very special guest; the current reigning Tag Team and X-Division Champion, El Pablo.

A thunderous ovation breaks out among the fans inside the Allianz Stadium as the Technicolour Tecnico strides into shot, the Tag Team title belt around his waist and the X-Division Championship over his shoulder.

Ace Heart: Pablo, we’ve obviously seen, over the past few weeks, a bit of “back and forth” between you and ‘Headhuntress’ Aiya; tonight we find whether she can earn herself a spot in that X-Division Championship match at WrestleFest XIX - or, indeed, whether Snoop Solano or Amber Lisa Hall can punch their own ticket instead. As the man currently holding that belt, how are you feeling? Any words you’d like to offer - of encouragement or otherwise - for the young blood in action here tonight?

EP chuckles at the pun as he pulls a packet of Skittles out of his pocket. He tears it open and empties a handful of shells into his palm before tossing them into his mouth, pausing to chew for a moment as he contemplates his response.

El Pablo: Make your moments count. That’s all I can say. Opportunities like this don’t come along every day - I should know, I had to wait over a thousand of them between losing the Indy Championship and taking hold of this one right here. So, whatever happens out there tonight...whether you’re out there for thirty seconds or thirty minutes...if an opportunity presents itself, you’d better take it.

Ace Heart: Any predictions you’d care to share with us?

A wry smirk spreads across EP’s face.

El Pablo: I’ll leave the gambling to the other Ace, if it’s all the same to you. Look, I know Aiya and I have traded a few playful jabs heading into tonight, but I don’t want anybody to think that means I’m overlooking Snoop or Amber. The fact of the matter is, anybody who walks out of here tonight with a victory to their name will have proven themselves a worthy contender, so I’m hoping for a hellacious confrontation; no holds barred, no punches pulled!

This is your moment, folks...your future...and if you give it your all...if you play your cards right and fight that good fight...your future could well feature an extremely tantalising, technicolour, table-topping Taste...of the Rainbow.

EP smirks, tossing a final fistful of Skittles into his mouth before winking down the camera lens.

El Pablo: Viva la Rainbowlution.

With that, EP bounds past Heart and out of shot, leaving the interviewer alone with his thoughts for a moment before the camera cuts.

THREE THE HARD WAY

X-DIVISION MATCH

WINNER MOVES ON TO FACE THE EWC X-DIVISION CHAMPION AT WRESTLEFEST

"The Headhuntress" Aiya

Vs Amber Lisa Hall

Vs Snoop Solano

MATCH WRITER: @cyrusblack

Woo: Hold onto your hats folks because up next up it’s time to get X-rated.

Gomez: Oh Marcus, you know that kind of talk just tickles my little pickle. I love me some X-Division action.

Woo: This isn’t just any old X-Divison match, the tagline reads… three is the hard way…

Gomez: Just the way I like it.

Woo:…"Headhuntress" Aiya is about to go to war with fellow Prime superstar ALH herself Amber Lisa Hall… and throw into the mix the second most famous Snoop ever… Rampages own Snoop Solanooooo and you’ve got yourself a ménage à trois of extreme proportions!

Gomez: I don’t think anyone calls Amber Hall ALH but nevertheless this match has a big fight feel too it and the stakes are high! Whoever wins this battle will go on to challenge for the X-Division championship at WrestleFest!

Dobrev: The following is an X-Division rules match… Joining us first, from Kyoto, Japan, weighing in at 137 pounds ... “Headhuntress” AIYAAAAAA!!!!

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.

Dobrev: And her opponent, from Brooklyn.. New York, 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 Aiya with a grin ready to start.

Dobrev: Making his way to the ring, from Cali… Colombia, weighing in at 214 pounds… SNOOP SOLANOOOOO!!!

’Thief's Theme' by Nas blasts over the PA system as Snoop Solano marches down the ramp with a steel cane in hand, he moves through a smoke screen of apparent dry ice, his white vest showing his cut chest and abdomen. Before Snoop can get to the ring, Aiya rushes Amber from behind catching her in the back of the head with a stiff elbow shot.

Woo: The match hasn’t even begun yet, Snoop isn’t even in the ring but Aiya has caught Amber off guard!

Aiya then spins Amber around and Irish whips her, as Amber bounces off of the far away ropes Aiya rushes towards her and lunges with a spear but Amber expertly leap frogs over her causing Aiya to stumble through the middle ropes to the outside. Amber managed to dodge the spear but her momentum takes her straight into Solano who catches her with his signature move the conflict strike!

Woo: One hundred miles per hour to describe this match is a an understatement!!! Amber manages to evade the spear but no-one saw Solano quietly slide into the ring and he’s nearly took Ambers head off with that wicked looking lariat he calls conflict strike!

DING DING DING

As the ref finally calls for the bell to start the match Solano rushes towards the other side of the ring and leaps through the middle ropes hoping to catch Aiya on the outside with his skim air signature move but Aiya catches both his legs in mid air and he’s left dangling with his hands on the ropes for a split second before Aiya yanks him hard causing him to lose his grip of the ropes, the back of his head takes a nasty bump on the ring apron as he falls to the outside.

Aiya lifts the ring apron up and pulls out a table for underneath. After setting the table up on the outside she grabs a steel chair from the time keepers area, folds it up and smashes it across Solanos back multiple times. Aiya then lifts Solano up and places him on top of the table.

Woo: I have a feeling that Aiya has some bad intentions here!

Gomez: Let’s hope so!

Aiya places the steel chair over the chest of Solano who’s still laying flat out on the table, she then rolls into the ring and rushes over to Amber who’s just getting to her feet, she jumps up and catches Amber perfectly with her version of an Enzuigiri that she calls lights out. Aiya then moves to the corner and climbs up to the top turnbuckle and faces Solano on the outside.

Woo: Aiya is dominating this match so far but now she’s up that top rope and I have a very bad feeling about this!

Aiya takes a moment to look around the sold out crowd before she leaps from the top rope landing with the coupe de grace directly onto the steel chair thats situated on Solano’s chest which takes the two of them crashing through the table. The crowd is on there feet now, some are shocked, others are cheering.

Woo: Holy crap!!! That’s taking the phrase high risk offensive to a whole new level!

Gomez: This is what the X-Division is all about!

Aiya leans with her back against the announce table as she holds her leg, a grin across her face as she watches the referee check on Solano who is holding his chest in pain in amongst the rubble of the broken table.

Aiya slowly rolls into the ring and as she gets to her feet Amber suddenly sprints towards her, smashing into Aiya and knocking her off her feet with her Running High-impact Shoulder Block thats she calls Run By! Amber then climbs to the top rope and jumps off, landing on Aiya with a diving headbutt. Amber makes the pin…

ONE...

TWO...

THR-Kickout by Aiya!

Gomez: I thought Amber had snatched the victory right there! Aiya kicking out in the nick of time.

Amber grabs a fist full of Aiyas hair and pulls her to her feet, as she does Aiya smashes her with an elbow to the face and then catches her with a disrespectful slap that echoes around the arena. Ambers face contorts with anger as she starts to pummel Aiya with stiff punches to the face, Aiya responds with some punches of her own.

As both women trade back and forth strikes neither notices Solano slip into the ring with his steel cane in hand. His chest is red raw and he looks to be struggling to breathe, but that doesn’t stop him from pouncing forward and catching Amber in the back of the knee with the cane. Before Aiya can react Solano cracks the cane over her skull which immediately bursts open. Aiya collapses to the mat with blood pouring down her face as Solano turns his attentions back towards Amber who makes a desperate attempt to grab the cane from him. He brings the cane down on Ambers shoulder before spinning it around and smashing it across her back twice. Solano raises the cane in the air and lets out a loud roar as the crowd cheer.

Solano straddles across Ambers back and places the cane across her throat as he pulls tight with all his strength and begins to choke the life out of her.

Woo: This is uncomfortable to watch.

Gomez: It’s not suppose to be! If you can’t handle the pain and suffering that comes with these types of matches then you’ve no business being in the hunt for the X-Division championship.

Solano let’s go if his grip on the cane and an unconscious Amber slumps to the floor. Aiya uses the ropes to pull herself to her feet, her face is caked in blood as she rushes towards Solano. Solano swings the cane towards her but she rolls underneath it and comes up behind Solano. As he turns Aiya reaches out a hand and grabs Solano by the crotch, squeezing her hand as tight as possible. Solano let’s out a painful gasp as Aiya springs up and catches him on the chin with an uppercut. As Solano stumbles back holding his nether regions Aiya runs at him and takes him down with a leaping big boot to the face.

Woo: Solano’s child bearing days might be behind him after this match!

Aiya rolls out of the ring, disappearing from the cameras view for a second before she appears again on the ring apron with her barbed wire bat in one hand and a small sack in the other. Aiya climbs into the ring and places the sack on the mat before she raises the bat and brings it down on the back of Solano who cries out in pain as the barbed wire sticks to his body. Aiya then makes her way over to Amber who is only just starting to gain consciousness. Aiya drops to her knees and rakes the barbed wire bat across Ambers forehead which immediately begins to bleed. Amber kicks Aiya off of her before rolling across the ring while holding her bloodied head in agony.

Aiya seems pleased with herself as she picks up the small sack and opens it, pouring it’s contents across the mat. The thumb tacks scatter across the middle of the ring as the blood thirsty crowd cheer.

Woo: Business has officially just picked up in this match!

Gomez: Shits about to get real.

Aiya pulls Solano to his feet by the hair, as she does he leaps into the air and catches her with a knee to the face. Aiya is stunned as Solano turns and jumps onto the middle ropes before spring boarding backwards and catching Aiya, bringing both of them down on the thumb tacks with his signature Castle sand move. Aiya’s back is now covered in thumb tacks as Solano throws an arm across her chest for the pin…

ONE...

TWO...Amber breaks the pin by landing onto top of them both with her signature moonsault from the middle rope the big drop!

Amber collects a steel chair from the outside and unleashes a barrage of shots to both Aiya and Solano. She then takes turns at smashing Solano with his steel cane and then messing up Aiya’s back with the barbed wire bat. The fans are getting behind Amber now as she starts to climb to the top turnbuckle, at the same time Solano springs to life, leaping onto the top rope and then onto the shoulders of Amber he brings them both crashing to the outside with his Abismo Perfecto move!

Solano rolls Amber into the ring before doing the same but as he’s getting to his feet Aiya comes from nowhere and strikes him with her finisher the OTK! Aiya then picks Amber up onto her shoulders and drops her onto the thumb tacks with her burning hammer finisher Beat In! Aiya makes the pin….

ONE...

TWO...

THREE!!!

DING DING DING

Dobrev: And your winner, via pinfall Headhuntress… AIYAAA…

Aiya rolls out of the ring and celebrates as she slowly walks up the ramp. Solano is in the corner shaking his head in frustration and anger as the referee checks on Amber.

Woo: This was nothing short of a bloody war tonight and at the end of it all it’s Aiya that prevails!

Gomez: That’s right, Aiya will go on to WrestleFest to challenge for the X-Division championship and going by her performance tonight I think she would make a great champ.

Woo: Solano and Amber played there part in this instant classic and I’m sure they’ll be back in the hunt for the X-Division title real soon.

Gomez: We need to take a breather after that battle but in just a moment we have six-man tag action between Sabotage and the Love Club!!

Before we get much of said breather, we cut to a special word from our former tag team champions on the X-Tron...

Have Hemorrhoids made your life unbearable to deal with…

The camera cuts to Bobby Rose

Rose: Yes they have!!!

Do flare-ups strike out of nowhere, when you least expect it…

Jimmy Lane jumps onto the screen and gives a thumbs up

Lane: They sure do…

Then try Preparation H for fast acting relief for even the most annoying Hemorrhoid problem, just apply the cream like so…

Rose: Directly to the pains...in my ass…

Right onto the flare-ups in the bunghole…

Lane: You mean right on the Hemorrhoids themselves?

Yeah, a little dab of cream directly on each of the Hemorrhoids…

For immediate relief from even the most annoying Hemorrhoids and watch...as they disappear…

Rose: HOLY CRAP!!! Look how quickly they shrink and disappear…

Lane: And my ass feels great!!!

Bobby and Jimmy give a double thumbs up

Rose: So, when Hemorrhoids come out of nowhere and sneak attack your ass grab some Preparation H and SABOTAGE those annoying little lumps…

Lane: Preparation H, it’s the official Hemorrhoid Cream of The Southern Express!!!

Bobby and Jimmy hold up a tube of Preparation H and smile

This has been a paid promotional video by The Southern Express and Preparation H

The camera cuts backstage inside The Love Club locker room where Bobby Rose, Jimmy Lane, Bunny Love and the newest member of the Express Jamie Love are all watching their paid promotion commercial play out on the X-Tron inside the Allianz Stadium. The do a four-way high five, enjoying their rib and hoping that the Hemorrhoids of Sabotage were watching but Jamie quickly smartens up

Jamie Love: But is it really the BEST idea to piss these guys off right before our match?

He shrugs as Bunny nods

Bunny Love: I used to ask the same question but these two love pissing their opponents off before the match…

Bobby and Jimmy smile

Rose: What are we supposed to do, respect the Hemorrhoids that keep attacking us from behind?

Lane: Yeah, they don’t respect us so we will make fun of them…

Rose: We heard their little crack about us being ‘YoungBloods’...wow, another ‘old’ joke...how original…”

Jamie smiles

Jamie Love: Well you guys did make more Hemorrhoid jokes…

Bobby and Jimmy both nod

Rose: Yeah well that’s because they are Hemorrhoids and not Heroes and besides…

Lane: Preparation H paid us a lot of money to make that commercial and be the official spokesman of their hemorrhoid cream…

Rose: But tonight it’s about getting a little bit of revenge against Dozier, Bradford and Gage...a chance to kick their teeth in for what they’ve done to us…

Jamie looks away from Bobby and Jimmy and at Bunny

Jamie Love: Yeah, it sucks when someone sneaks around behind your back and hurts you…

Bunny looks at her brother oddly

Bunny Love: Why are you looking at me?

Jamie smiles

Jamie Love: No reason, just that these three have hurt you also...by attacking Bobby and Jimmy and I know how much you care about them...and would never do anything to hurt them, would never HIDE anything from them…

Bobby and Jimmy look at Jamie

Rose: Nope, Bunny is a straight shooter…

Lane: We trust her with our lives Jamie, your sister is one of the good ones…

Jamie smiles

Jamie Love: Yeah…

But Bunny quickie jumps in

Bunny Love: Enough about me, this isn’t about me...this is about the three of you going out there and tearing Eddie Dozier, Tyler Bradford and Gideon Gage a new one, it’s about ending this jealousy they have for us and it’s about showing the EWC that The Southern Express and The Love Club is still the most dominate unit in the EWC...so let’s go kick their asses!!!

Bobby and Jimmy nod and head out the door but Jamie grabs his sister by the arm and pulls her back, away from Bobby and Jimmy. She looks at her brother who has a serious look on his face

Bunny Love: What the hell...

Jamie Love: Hey, you and I need to talk…

But Bunny wiggles free

Bunny Love: We have a MATCH Jamie, we can talk later...NOTHING is more important at this moment than this match...GOT IT!!!

Bunny runs off to join Bobby and Jimmy and Jamie looks on as we cut back to ringside!

SIX MAN TAG TEAM

Sabotage (Eddie Dozier, Tyler Bradford & Gideon Gage)
Vs The Southern Express & Jamie Love

MATCH WRITER: Dominic Sanders

We return to ringside where we prepare for the rare, but exciting, six-person tag match!

Woo: Well, this next one should be a real fun one, Valentina.

Gomez: I suppose... if you are into old guys, midgets, and assholes.

Woo: This is not the time or place to discuss our love lives. But no, I am talking about The Southern Express and Jamie Love taking on Eddie Dozier, Tyler Bradford, and Gideon Gage, also known as Sabotage.

Gomez: The Southern Express managed to beat Sabotage at the Rumble in one of their many successful Tag Team Championship defenses.

Woo: However, Sabotage quickly unleashed their new muscle in the form of Gage and he has really added value to their dynamic. Let's take it to Nina Dobrev in the ring!

Dobrev: The following match is a Six-Man Tag Team Match! Joining us first, representing The Love Club, weighing in at a combined 565 pounds ... JAMIE LOVE AND THE SOUTHERN EXPRESS!

"The Resistance" by Skillet begins to play. 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, Jimmy Lane, and Jamie Love. Bunny leads the way as The Southern Express reach out and high five with the fans as they walk to the ring. Jamie keeps his gaze focused on the ring. Bunny marches up the steps and climbs through the ropes as Bobby and Jimmy climb up onto the apron and step through the ropes. Jamie slides under the bottom rope and into the ring. All three head to their own corners. Jimmy climbs up to the middle turnbuckle and Bobby stands in his corner. Both men toss out bandannas to the crowd as Jamie keeps his focus on the match at hand. Bunny stands in the middle of the ring as the crowd cheers.

Dobrev: And their opponents, representing Sabotage, weighing in at a combined 751 pounds ... GIDEON GAGE, TYLER BRADFORD, AND EDDIE DOZIER!

"Sabotage" by the Beastie Boys begins to play and the three men step out from the back. Eddie and Tyler are in their typical tear-away suits as Gideon stands behind them in his ring gear with his arms crossed over his chest. Eddie and Tyler tear away their suits and toss them into the crowd as they receive a huge ovation of boos. Eddie and Tyler shake their heads and the three men begin to walk down the ramp towards the ring. The three hop up onto the ring apron in unison and climb through the ropes. They soak in the boos as they stare at the three men across the ring. Their music fades as the referee checks all competitors for foreign objects.

Woo: This one is going to be very intense! These two teams hate each other. It's been brewing for quite awhile and, surely, we will get some closure to this feud tonight.

Gomez: I wouldn't count on it. They hate each other THAT much, Marcus.

DING DING DING

Gideon stays in the ring while Eddie and Tyler step to the apron. Jamie looks at Bobby and Jimmy and nods his head. The Southern Express exit the ring as Jamie Love sprints at Gage. He jumps in the air and Gideon catches him. Jamie drives fist after fist in Gideon's face, causing Gideon to drop Jamie. Jamie stomps hard on Gideon's right foot. Gideon hops on his left foot for a second and limps across the ring. Jamie runs at Gideon and leaps up onto his back, putting him in a sleeper hold. Gideon reaches up and grabs Jamie, flipping him over and onto his back in the middle of the ring. Gideon tees off and kicks Jamie in the upper back. Jamie winces and arches his back as Gideon reaches down and grabs him by the hair. He tosses Jamie halfway across the ring and into Jamie's own corner. Jimmy Lane reaches over the top rope and tags himself in. Jimmy hops over the top rope and into the ring. He squares Gideon up and locks up with the much bigger man. Gideon pushes Jimmy back into the Sabotage corner and puts both hands around Jimmy's neck, choking him in the corner. The referee counts to four and Gideon backs off, arguing with the referee. Eddie grabs the tag rope and drapes it over Jimmy's neck, choking him more.

As the referee turns around, Eddie drops the rope and puts his hands up in the air as if he was doing nothing. Gideon reaches out his hand and tags Tyler into the match. Tyler enters the ring and goes to drive a knee in Jimmy's stomach in the corner. However, Jimmy slithers out of the way and Tyler drives his knee into the middle turnbuckle. Tyler whips around quickly but is met by a hurricanrana by Jimmy! Jimmy floats over into a cover.

ONE...

TWO...

Easy kickout by Tyler Bradford.

Jimmy gets up to his feet and pulls Tyler over to his corner. He tags Bobby into the match and puts him into a twisted wrist lock. Bobby jumps over the top rope and brings down and double axe handle on Tyler's shoulder. Tyler walks away and shakes his shoulder out as Bobby follows him. Tyler reaches up and pokes Bobby in the eye. The referee gets onto Tyler about a disqualification as Bobby grabs his eye and leans against the ropes.

Woo: A cheap eye poke from Tyler Bradford temporarily blinds Bobby Rose!

Gomez: As if you would expect something different from these bastards.

Tyler walks over and grabs Bobby by the hair. He spins him around and drops him with a snap suplex near the Sabotage corner. He reaches up and tags Eddie Dozier into the match. Eddie climbs through the ropes and grabs Bobby. Eddie lifts Bobby high into the air and drives him into the mat with a spine buster! He drops into a casual cover.

ONE...

TWO...

Jamie Love runs into the ring and stomps on the back of Eddie's head. This triggers Gideon and Tyler to get back into the ring. Jimmy gets in himself and all six are now in the ring! They all pair off and brawl with each other in separate corners. Eddie punches Bobby Rose in the chin as Tyler drives a leaping knee into Jimmy's cheek. Gideon is manhandling Jamie in their corner with rights and lefts to the midsection. All three members of Sabotage grab their opponents by the wrists and go to Irish-whip them into the middle of the ring into each other. The Love Club members all reverse the whips and the three members of Sabotage collide in the middle of the ring. The three members of Sabotage roll out of the ring under the bottom rope and gather at the bottom of the ramp. Inside the ring, The Southern Express duo has Jamie Love lifted high into the air. They run towards the ropes and toss Jamie Love out of the ring and on top of Sabotage, bringing all three men to the ground!

Woo: WOW! The Southern Express just used their own partner as a weapon as they catapulted him onto their opponents!

Gomez: Even the littlest amount of weight can be dangerous when coming at you at high speeds!

The Southern Express exits the ring and the three members of The Love Club grab Gideon Gage and pull him to his feet. The Southern Express hooks Gage up and lift him into the air, driving him down onto the steel ramp with a brain buster suplex!

Woo: My God, Valentina! Did you hear that impact?!

Gomez: Gideon Gage's skull smacked the metal hard! It was like music to my ears!

Tyler and Eddie are up to their feet. As The Southern Express was doing that to Gideon, they have dragged Jamie up to the top of the ramp and onto the stage. Jamie throws wild fists, trying to fight his way out of it. However, Eddie has Jamie hooked up for the Kentucky Deluxe! Tyler sprints at them and leaps with the knee, catapulting Jamie up and over with the High Money on the stage! The Southern Express sprints up the ramp and start brawling with Eddie and Tyler as Jamie lays in pain on the stage. The referee has lost all control of this match as he checks on Gideon, then moving up the stage to check on Jamie Love. The Southern Express and Sabotage are brawling close to the edge of the stage.

Woo: This is becoming dangerous! We've already seen two of these competitors taken out of this match. And now the rest of them are fighting really close to the edge of that stage!

Jimmy and Bobby both drive right hands into their opponents' faces. Eddie and Tyler teeter on the edge of the stage. Suddenly, out of nowhere, Gideon Gage is there. He runs and spears both members of The Southern Express! But the momentum takes all three of them crashing into Eddie and Tyler and all five men fly off of the stage and crashing through a row of tables down below, shattering the tables upon impact! The referee leaves Jamie Love's side, who hasn't yet moved, and drops off of the stage to check on Gage, Bradford, Lane, Dozier, and Rose. He looks at all of the motionless men and signals down towards ringside.

DING DING DING

Dobrev: Ladies and gentlemen... the referee has deemed that all six competitors are unable to continue. Therefore, the referee has declared this match a DRAW!

Medics come out to check on all six competitors. Bunny Love stands nearby with a concerned look on her face. We cut back to the announce table on Marcus Woo and Valentina Gomez.

Woo: Wow, Valentina. What a match. And what an ending! Gideon Gage just wiped out The Southern Express AND his own teammates, taking himself out in the process. All men will be evaluated by our amazing training staff, but there will surely be some lingering damage to many of these competitors. In the end, I just hope that all of them are okay.

Gomez: Or some of them. I'm okay with Sabotage being a bit banged up.

Woo: See still have our MASSIVE main even to come! Did and Narumi! Ladder match!

Gomez: For the Indy Championship! Don't go anywhere!

Despite Valentina's request we do have somewhere to go, as we cut backstage...

We open up backstage. At first, we just see a pair of boots walking along the floor. As the camera lifts up, a pop is heard as we see Samantha ‘The Titaness’ Hamilton standing in the halls of the Allianz Stadium. Beside her is her husband, Joseph ‘Orion’ Hunter.

Hamilton: It feels just like yesterday I was performing in this pay-per-view. Young Blood definitely holds a lot of special fights and memories for me. But, I’m not simply here for nostalgia. I have other reasons.

She starts to elaborate on what those are, but another voice interrupts her.

?: What, you didn’t come here to reminisce on the greatest match in EWC history?

The camera pans to show Darius is also here, with Elissa Bradley by his side. Sam flashes Darius a coy grin before nodding to the FX Championship over his shoulders.

Hamilton: Like I said, it’s not the only reason, no. But I’m not gonna say I haven’t been thinking about our Blood Bath match, either.

Sam smirks as she nods approvingly, looking directly at the FX Championship over Darius’s shoulders.

Hamilton: I am legitimately glad you beat Bradford’s pathetic, rich ass. That belt deserves better and … you certainly qualify. Congratulations.

Darius: Yeah, that prick definitely had it coming … I think he has some sort of death wish though. You of all people know facing me in any sort of match that let’s me utilize whatever I need to win … Not a fun time. I’m not the only one doing well here though; you’ve had a hell of a run since our match. Definitely keep it up, champ. Maybe one day we can have ourselves another one on one. It’ll be much different next time around … Promise.

Sam nods quickly in agreement.

Hamilton: How right you are. Because truthfully? My match against El Pablo will be one of the last ones I have in Brawl for a while, so .. you’re probably gonna have to head back over to Rampage. Don’t worry though; I intend to keep this run going. In fact, you answered your own question on why else I’m here.

Tommy Burton is my next opponent. Even if he wins, I got a few thoughts tucked away.

Take care and make sure to bury Bradford away for good, will ya?

Darius and Samantha give one another a respectful nod before walking their separate ways as we cut back to ringside for our main event!

INDY CHAMPIONSHIP
LADDER MATCH
Narumi Tsutsumi
Vs Dio

MATCH WRITER: Samantha "Titaness" Hamilton

We return to ringside where the six man tag team match has just ended. We cut to commentary while the ring is getting set up for the main event of the night!

Woo: Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen! This is it! Our main event for the evening! Will we see a new Indy Champion, or will Dio prevail?

Gomez: No matter what happens tonight, we can be certain this will be a match that will be remembered for a long while. Take us away, Dobrev!

Dobrev: The following match is a Ladder Match, and it is for the EWC Indy Championship! Making her way to the ring, weighing in at 125 pounds, from Shinjuku, Japan … she is the Onihime ... NARUMI TSUTSUMI!

Stage spotlights shine down in the dark as "The Baddest" by Raon Lee begins to play with the oni princess skipping onto the scene in a pink oni mask. Narumi waves at the fans as the spotlight follows her. As she makes her way 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.

Dobrev: And her opponent, from Seattle, Washington, weighing in at 205 pounds ... 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.

Woo: Who’s going to climb that ladder and unhook the Indy Championship from above? We’re about to find out whether we’ll hear AND NEW or AND STILL!

DING DING DING

Both wrestlers take a moment to look away from each other, then stare up at the Indy Championship hanging above. After staring at the prize for a few brief seconds, they turn their attention back to each other and slowly circle one another.

They meet in the center and lock up. Despite Dio having the height and weight advantages, Narumi is still giving it her all and fighting back. She starts feeling, however, this isn’t going to end in her favor if she continues trying to beat Dio by just pure strength. So, she improvises and throws a kick at Dio’s shin. He winces and hisses in pain, but those few seconds allow Tsutsumi to push him back!

Narumi keeps holding onto Dio’s hands before finally swinging her leg, trying to catch Dio with a Leg Sweep! His balance falters, but not enough for him to lose balance!

He tugs Narumi forward, pulling her into a Swinging Neckbreaker!

The two wrestlers finally let go of each other’s hands as Narumi collapses onto the floor, holding her neck and rubbing it. Dio saunters towards Narumi, yanking her up by gripping her hair. Tsutsumi clenches her fists tightly, slamming them against Dio’s chest as she begins delivering punches to the champion.

Her fists unclench after he refuses to let go and shifts to a Knife Edge Chop.

Dio grimaces, clearly in pain, but still has a hold of Narumi. Dio gets her in position for a Torture Rack and begins applying the hold! Narumi uses her head to headbutt Dio!

Finally, Dio lets go and the two stumble down onto the canvas.

Woo: Some nice escape work there from the challenger!

Gomez: Dio was looking to exert the power on Narumi, but he got denied!

Dio rolls out of the ring, grabbing a ladder and setting it up on the outside. He turns around in time to see Narumi running forward, attempting to knock him into the ladder. Dio flashes a sly smirk before moving out of the way just in time.

Narumi, unfortunately, can’t grab the ropes or anything to slow herself. She collides into the ladder, chest and face first! Dio grabs onto Narumi’s hair once again, bringing her forehead down and slamming it against the ladder!

But right before he can make Tsutsumi’s face meet the unforgiving steel, she manages to put her hands out and grab onto the rungs!

Narumi throws her legs back, trying to find and connect with Dio’s lower body! She manages to kick his kneecap, and that’s enough to make the Champion let go and back away from the challenger!

Tsutsumi uses the ladder to stand back up, then turns to look at Dio. Both are already panting a bit, clearly in pain and agony, but neither refusing to back down or give up.

Narumi nods, seeming to silently reassure herself somehow, before grabbing Dio’s arm and tugging him forward! Now Dio is pulled into the ladder! But Narumi isn’t done with the champion! She picks it up and traps Dio’s legs between the ladder steps.

She opens the ladder up wide, as if it were an alligator’s mouth. And then … SLAM!

It slams down right onto Dio’s legs, causing him to scream and cradle them!

Sensing an opportunity, Narumi grabs a new ladder and slides it into the ring!

Woo: And here comes the ladder!

Gomez: Now business is about to pick up!

Narumi has already climbed about half-way up. One time she glances down, she sees Dio shakily getting back into the ring. His legs are trembling, hinting the ladder definitely did its job in wounding him. But he’s refusing to let the injuries keep him away that easily.

Narumi’s fingertips are mere inches away from touching the Indy Championship when … the ladder is toppled! She tries to hold on, but falls off! Her head slams into the nearest guard rail as she lets go completely of the ladder!

Dio pulls the ladder back up to a standing position and slowly begins ascending the rungs. The sounds of the audience cheering make him look down and, sure enough, Narumi has somehow recovered enough to begin climbing up with him!

Narumi reaches around, forcing Dio to turn so his back is against the ladder. She leaps off, taking herself and the champion down to the canvas with a Shiranui! Suffice to say, they both land a bit awkwardly, but it also appears that since Narumi stayed on the opposite side, she might be a bit worse for wear than Dio!

The two stay on their backs, seeming content to take a few moments to regain their energy and breath!

Woo: GOOD GOD! What an impact!

Gomez: Both fighters are down, but can either one get up?!

Dio crawls towards Tsutsumi, ignoring his legs protesting and screaming at him to stay put. He decides to pay the challenger back with some Karma and places her so Narumi’s stomach is underneath the ladder.

He slams it shut, catching the challenger in the same way Tsutsumi did to his legs. The camera zooms in and shows the ladder is actually bent a bit! Enough for Dio to discard it and move out of the ring to grab a new ladder.

He slides it in, but doesn’t quite get to finish setting it up before Narumi sneaks behind him, using the ropes to launch herself with a Springboard Forearm Smash to the back of Dio’s head!

Tsutsumi then tries to throw Dio out of the ring! Unfortunately, he still has ample arm strength to grab onto the ropes and hold on! Narumi remedies this by kicking him in the face with a boot, causing him to fall out of the ring and collapse onto the floor!

Narumi begins her ascension up the ladder! She’s going for the Indy Championship!

Woo: Narumi is going for it! Did is down on the outside and Narumi is taking her shot!

Gomez: SHE BETTER NOT MISS! DIO WILL NOT LET HER GET ANOTHER ONE!!!

Narumi’s fingers are brushing against the Indy Championship! She sighs, looking frustrated at knowing she needs to climb up at least one more rung! But as she moves her body, she feels weight! And sure enough, Dio is back on the ladder with her!

Narumi takes a leap of faith! She grabs the Indy Championship, falling back down to the floor with it in her hands! It’s over!

DING DING DING

Dobrev: And your winner, via retrieval, AND THE NEW EWC INDY CHAMPION, NARUMI TSUTSUMI!

Megumi runs out from behind the curtain at the ramp and dashes in the ring! She hugs and gently helps Narumi up to her feet, helping her friend celebrate! Dio quietly stares at the two senshi before eventually leaving himself.

The crowd is going wild as both Senshi Of The Blade stand proudly in the center of the ring, celebrating the crowning of a new Indy Champion!

Woo: What a match! We just saw ladders used not only as a means to secure a victory, but to batter and attempt to incapacitate one another!

Gomez: Both really gave it all they got, but in the end, it was Narumi’s night. Congratulations to our new Indy Champion!

Megumi rushes the ring to celebrate with her tag team partner as Narumi Tsutsumi thrusts the Indy Championship in the air and lets out a yell in celebration! Fireworks erupt through the arena as the camera pans to a shot of Dio on the outside, looking in at the action, visibly frustrated. The camera jumps back to Megumi and Narumi celebrating.

Woo: Folks, what a night it was! We have a new Indy Champion and we are totally out of time! What an incredible showcase this was for all of our newer EWC Superstars. As Mac said earlier tonight, this was a celebration, for those who are in their first and second seasons, this was their moment, a moment for them to become household names, and they did not disappoint here tonight. Friends, thank you so much for watching, as always .. I'm Marcus Woo, for Valentina Gomez saying good night and we will see you all at WrestleFest in December, but stay tuned as Monday Night Brawl episode Five hundred and seventy six comes to you live next week at the Arena Coliseo in Mexico City, Mexico. Good night everyone!!!

The camera fades with one final shot of Narumi with the Indy championship, celebrating in the middle of the ring as fireworks shoot off all around the stadium.
