Backstage Interviewer: Jenna Salvatore
While 'Courtesy Call' by Thousand Foot Krutch blares over the loudspeakers at every location, a multi colored lightshow lights up the sky in a display that gets the fans screaming the EWC PRIME namesake. Brilliant blue spotlights swirl over the cheering crowds, whipping them up into a near-frenzy of excitement at the show to come.
Cameras flash all around the arena as the X-Tron cycles through Prime's roster. Nina Samson, El Pablo, Dio, Xander Wolfe, Saidie Sharpe, Nevaeh, Lorenzo, Narumi Tsutsumi, Carrie Samson, Iggy Swango, Snoop Solano, Dalilah Ashe, Megumi, 'Headhuntress' Aiya, Scorpio, Ace King, David Miller, Eddie Dozier and Mark Keaton are all also featured.
We also get some extra footage of the current Champions on PRIME as we see Scorpio with the Showtime Broadcast Championship and then Narumi Tsutsumi holding the Indy Championship over her head.
After one final pan over the crowd, we get some shots of a few of the signs being held up by the fans ..
I WANT A PIZZA SAIDIE
AIYA HUNTS DIO'S HEAD
IS EDDIE READY FOR SCORPIO?
I BOUGHT THESE TICKETS INSTEAD OF PRESENTS
NO STITCHES V NEVAEH?
The camera centers on ringside at the Manhattan Centre, fans stand up, pumping their fists and cheering. One last round of fireworks blast out now, and we turn our attention to Marshall Evans and Hayley Kushnir ..
Evans: Welcome everyone to the Prime Season Finale! Tonight we are brought to you in part by Wingstop and their Brooklyn branch were kind enough to send us a big load of wings, flavors, dips and drinks.
Kushnir: Wingstop may be where flavor gets it's wings but who will be flying high after tonight and who will be feeling low.
Evans: We have David Miller, Snoop Solano and Lorenzo in an X-Division Falls Count Anywhere fight. We have the hot sauce that is Dalilah Ashe going one on one with Xander Wolfe and we have Remarkable Mark Keaton versus Saidie Sharpe in a Little Caesars where the winner will need ice and a slice.
Kushnir: We then have Iggy Swango in a non title clash with Indy Champion, Narumi Tsutsumi. The Halo Syndicate want to show the Tag Team Champions, Rushin' Roulette they have what it takes in a non title tag clash. Tis the season for submissions when Dio and The Headuntress try to make the other tap out. And in out main event, Eddie Dozier looks to bring down the finale curtain on Scorpio's title reign when they clash for the Showtime Broadcast Championship!
Evans: It's a hot show in the cold town tonight as we go out of Season 22 with a BANG!
Kushnir: If it's hotter than that mango habanero I just ate, we're all going to melt. Jesus!
Evans: Have some milk you'll be fine.
Kushnir: Just remember if you enjoy tonight's event, episodes are going up one by one by one on EWCTV. Tonight's will be can't miss!
Marshall and Hayley share a kiss as we fade to the EWCTV commercial

Dalilah Ashe
Vs Xander Wolfe
Match Writer: emma louise
We return to ringside where Marshall Evans holds a chicken wing as a microphone.
Evans: We open with Delilah Ashe looking to get back on a winning track as she faces off with Xander Wolfe.
Reid: The following match is set for one fall. Joining us first, from Parts Unknown and weighing in at 225 pounds ... XANDER WOLFE!
The lights cut out as the NWO Wolfpac theme starts, after the howl "Of wolf and man" by Metallica hits and the arena goes blue as Xander Wolfe slowly walks out from the back and makes his way to the ring
Reid: And the opponent, from out of the Darkness of your Desires, she is the most Beautiful of Tragedies, the Sweetest of the Deadly Sins and the Last Temptation that you will ever need. She is the Vicious Mistress:
DALILAH ASHE
Committed by One-Eyed Doll begins to play and a purple glow illuminates the arena and a violet mist rises from the stage bringing with it the smell dying roses.
Just Another Mental Patient
How I wish this Room Was Vacant
Can't Seem To Break Through These Padded Walls
How I wish this Room Was Vacant
Can't Seem To Break Through These Padded Walls
The curtain parts as Dalilah Ashe appears wearing a crown of black roses and thorns which prick her pale brow bringing small drops of dark red blood. She opens her arms to hold the crowd in the long cold embrace of her contempt.
Locked Up in this Nuthouse Crying
All these Drugs My Brain is Frying
Doctor Says the Lunatic Needs More
Cocking her head to one side and holding her arms stiff at her sides she begins a long zombie walk to the ring, followed closely by her handler Lacey Savage. Climbing stiffly up onto the apron she looms over the audience like some ancient goddess of lust and death. She smiles down at them, slowly wetting her painted lips with the tip of her tongue before throwing her head back with a mocking laugh. She slides between the ropes with an evil expression to stare down her opponent with a wicked grin and nothing but bad intentions.
Strap Me Down they Must Sedate Me
Poke Me, Prod Me, Irritate Me
No Choice but to be the Needle's Whore
DING DING DING
Wolfe immediately hits Ashe in the face with a Big Boot dropping her to the mat. Wolfe drags her up and whips her off the ropes. He pushes her up into the air before bringing her crashing to the canvas with a Powerslam. Again Wolfe drags Ashe to her feet. He lifts her for a Suplex before walking from the middle of the ring to the corner, still holding up Ashe, and climbs to the bottom turnbuckle before throwing himself back hitting a, sorta, Superplex. The impact ricochets Ashe to her feet but Wolfe strikes with a right to the gut that doubles Ashe over allowing Wolfe to continue his assault with Forearm Smashes to the back and shoulders. Wolfe leads Ashe to the middle of the ring but Ashe headbutts him hard in the chest. She attempts a second but misses. Purposely. Ashe rolls forward cracking him on the head with the heel of her boot. Wolfe drops to the mat as Ashe runs off the ropes hitting a low Dropkick and a Legdrop. Ashe runs off the ropes hitting a Rolling Thunder. Wolfe pulls himself to the ropes where Ashe charges hitting a V-Trigger Knee.
Evans: Hashtag triggered. Eh?
Kushnir: Her knee to his face was a better crack than your joke was
Ashe pulls Wolfe into position and climbs the turnbuckles. She leaps for a Double Stomp but Wolfe moves at the last second and Ashe hits nothing but canvas and has to forward roll to keep her balance. She runs at Wolfe who lifts her for another Pop-Up Powerslam but Ashe counters hitting a DDT. Ashe grabs Wolfe's left arm quickly applying an Armbar. Ashe wrenches on it pulling Wolfe's shoulder as hard as she can. Wolfe manages to Hip Toss her away. Ashe gets to her feet in time as Wolfe runs through her with On The Hunt.
ONE...
TWO...
THR... NO! KICK OUT!
Ashe punches at Wolfe's injured shoulder breaking the count. Wolfe clutches at the pain in his shoulder as Ashe pulls herself to her feet. She stomps on the bad shoulder causing him to thrash around the ring in pain. From out of almost nowhere, Ashe comes flying in hitting a Falling Angel.
ONE...
TWO...
THR... NO! KICK OUT!
Evans: He got his right shoulder up but his left is still causing him pain.
Kushnir: Doesn't matter how big you are, it's tough to lift opponents with a bad arm.
Ashe grabs said bad arm and uses it to drag Wolfe to his feet. Only for him to punch Ashe in the face with his good arm. He lifts Ashe for a Side Suplex but Ashe slips out of it and runs off the ropes. Wolfe Back Drops Ashe but she lands on her feet and pulls him to the mat with a Brutus Blade. Ashe wrenches back as Wolfe tries to pull himself to the ropes. Ashe releases the hold long enough to grab his injured arm, trap it between her thighs and reapply the hold. Either the pain is too much or he choses to fight another day but Wolfe taps.
DING DING DING
Reid: And your winner, via submission ... DALILAH ASHE!!!
Evans: I didn't think I'd see that here tonight.
Kushnir: It's possible he chose to do so to save his shoulder. Xander Wolfe gave it all he could tonight but Dalilah Ashe and that shoulder got the better of him tonight.
Ashe sits cross legged in the ring before rising to her feet. She rolls her left shoulder to show SHE can before rolling back over the top rope to the outside of the ring.
Evans: A big win for Dalilah Ashe here at the Prime Finale
Kushnir: But who will be tasting victory in our next contest when Said....what is wrong with the tron?
The X-Tron flickers on, revealing a fairly cryptic message from our Mistress of Time Itself...
IGGY SWANGO
THE STARS HAVE ALIGNED THEMSELVES
FOR AN EPIC ENCOUNTER AT WRESTLEFEST
BUT THERE IS YET ANOTHER TO JOIN US!
SINCERELY,
THE STARS HAVE ALIGNED THEMSELVES
FOR AN EPIC ENCOUNTER AT WRESTLEFEST
BUT THERE IS YET ANOTHER TO JOIN US!
SINCERELY,
And just as quickly as the message appears, the X-Tron fades to black.

HOT-N-READY
BATTLE IN LITTLE CAESARS
Saidie Sharpe
Vs Remarkable Mark Keaton
Match Writer: Jordan Sharpe
We return to ringside where we see Marshal Evans.
Evans: We head now from time traveling to a traveling different location now as Saidie Sharpe battles the remarkable Mark Keaton in a Little Caesars restaurant not far from here.
‘Money for Nothing’ by Dire Straits plays over the radio in the Little Caesars as Remarkable Mark Keaton makes his way through the front door, wearing some killer leather pants, a sweet leather jacket and even a leather t-shirt. The referee directs him to a corner of the lobby as the radio switches to ‘The Greatest’ by Sia and Saidie Sharpe emerges from behind the front counter, her hair tied into a ponytail and her hands wrapped as the referee motions to her to take a corner of the lobby.
A bell somehow rings deep in the heart of the pizza joint and RMK immediately picks up one of the chairs and throws it straight at Saidie! She ducks as it slams hard into the wall, leaving a dent. Keaton wastes no time going after Saidie, as he goes to grab her but she’s too quick. She gives Keaton a quick kick to the leg, and makes her way back to the kitchen area behind the counter. Keaton follows suit, but Saidie is quicker as Keaton limps slightly from the kick. He makes his way behind the counter but Saidie’s grabbed two cans of Coke from the pop fridge and shakes them up, spraying it all over Mark as he lets out a frustrated grunt about his wicked sweet jacket being sticky!
He throws it off, and he and Saidie trade punches back and forth at the counter. Saidie goes for a backhand to the face, but Mark grabs her hand, smacks it onto the counter, and then does the same to her head! She doubles it over and he follows that up with a kick to the ribs! Keaton notices a huge stack of pizza boxes so he chuckles, and karate kicks them all over on top of the fallen Saidie! He digs through them and covers!
ONE...
TWO...
THR... NO! KICK OUT!
Saidie kicks out, and then throws a punch straight to Keaton’s gut. It knocks the wind out of him so he stumbles backwards. The two are at the oven area now, and Saidie picks up the huge metal paddle that you put the pizzas in the oven with. She starts swinging it like a sword at Keaton who’s dodging left and right! She swings it hard, and gets it stuck in the counter top as Mark just laughs and punches it away. So Saidie picks up a pizza slicer, and Keaton’s eyes go wide. Saidie just throws it and hits him point blank between those eyes as he curses and tells the referee she should be disqualified.
Saidie launches herself at Keaton, who grabs her in a headlock. He hits her with a couple of punches, and pushes her face down towards the hot pizza oven! Her face is inches away from the hot conveyor belts, but she musters up the strength to elbow RMK in the ribs! Keaton stumbles back a bit, and Saidie looks to her right at a pepperoni pizza sitting on the cutting counter, Hot ‘n Fresh! She picks it up, opens the box, and slams it into Keaton’s face as he screams, the delicious meaty pepperoni and hot cheese burning up his beefcake face! He drops to a knee, and Saidie takes her shot, hitting him with a big Sparkling Witch right in the kitchen! She covers!
ONE...
TWO...
THREE!
Reid: And your winner, via pinfall ... SAIDIE SHARPE!!!
Her music plays over the radio again as the referee raises her hand. She wipes some pizza sauce off of her shirt as the camera pans over to Keaton. His pants are ripped straight down the middle. Total bummer.
Evans: Pepperoni and cheese. Nice on a pizza, not on the face
Kushnir: David Miller is in the back right now preparing to.. . FACE Snoop Solano and Lorenzo in just a moment. I hear we can go to him now.
The camera cuts to ...
The feed cuts to a remote unit backstage, catching up to David Miller just as he stuffs the last of his street clothes into a battered duffel. At his side, the North American Championship rests on the wooden bench beside his phone, which vibrates with an incoming call. Zooming in, the shot just manages to pull focus on the caller ID – Felicia Matthews – before Miller snatches the phone away. Glaring at the camera, he looks back to the screen. And declines the call. Stiffly tossing the phone in the bag, he zips it up and shoves it aside. Before slowly turning back to the cameraman with a glare.
Miller: You get your shot, asshole?
A knock at the door seems to spare the unseen employee from having to save himself. But Miller continues to stare him down for a minute longer. The knock comes again. More insistent. Tearing himself away, Miller reaches out to take hold of the knob and tug the door open, revealing the stoic face of the "Headhuntress", Aiya, waiting on the other side. A silent moment passes between them, before Miller’s eyes narrow at the sight of Prime’s Sadistic Sakura. Eventually, he shrugs impatiently.
Miller: What?
Aiya literally waves the blunt tone coming from Miller’s voice off as she leans against the door.
“Headhuntress” Aiya: No need to be like that with me. Last I checked, I haven’t done anything to you. On the contrary, I wanted to see if you’d wanna do something for me. Not because I’m unable to, but Price has put me against Dio. You’re about to face this specific individual, so it’s easier to ask you.
Aiya purposely pauses for a more dramatic effect before tilting her head up and looking straight into Miller’s eyes.
“Headhuntress” Aiya: It’s simple, really. Annihilate Snoop Solano for me. I know he’s not the only opponent you’re gonna face, but I’m sure you can get some shots with some extra ‘oomph’ added in against him. It’s a win-win, don’t you think?. I’m fed up with him trying to come to my brand and this will allow you to get rid of whatever frustrations are clearly bothering you. Sound reasonable enough?
Another pause … before a sly smirk appears on Aiya’s lips.
“Headhuntress” Aiya: Or … would that be too much to ask from ‘the toughest bastard in the business’?
He scoffed. Though, despite himself, did smirk a bit at her forwardness.
Miller: You really think one more concussion is gonna’ mean a fucking thing to him? I checked him out. And wrote him off. Immediately. Solano’s a fucking joke, lady. Let him show up whenever he wants. Nothing wrong with a free win. ‘specially if you can get the stupid son of a bitch to play your little X games with you. Not that I’m against putting a little extra hurt on someone, but you’re asking me to do something for you. Where’s the part about what I’m getting back? Or is this one of those ‘simp’ situations where a pretty face and a tight ass says jump and I ask how high?
His eyes shifted. Back towards the bag. Teeth clenched, he muttered through them.
Miller: Because if it is.
His eyes turned back to her. Hardened. Darkened.
Miller: Been there. Done that. Save it and fuck off.
The smirk immediately disappeared as a visible grimace appeared on her face. Her head shook in disdain as Aiya clicked her tongue.
“Headhuntress” Aiya: Disappointing. Who the fuck do you think I am, hmm? If I wanted to use those tactics, I would have done so way sooner. I thought you were smarter than that. There were literally zero strings attached. It’s literally a matter of I can’t be in two matches at once, otherwise I’d fucking do it my damn self. As for what you’d get in return? I thought you’d have a bit of fun taking that sorta task up, but apparently not. It seems something - or someone - has made you soft.
Hidden from view, Miller’s fingers tightened on the doorframe at that last cut. Knuckles whitening.
“Headhuntress” Aiya: But point made. You don’t wanna do it? Fine. Just fucking say so. But never assume I’m that kind of woman again. Or next time, you’ll be missing something, be it a few teeth or worse.
Aiya pivots, turning to head out, prompting a callous chuckle from behind. Still watching from the open doorway, Miller’s eyes hardened, darkened, to match the emotionless smile settling into place.
Miller: Lot of people tried drilling a lot of shit into my head. None of it stuck. Save one thing. There’s always a fucking string. Call it a silver platter if you want, but I won’t bite. You want something. You offer something. That’s how this shit works. But lucky for you. I know what I want. And I think I’ll go ahead and take it. You go play with Dio. I know you want to. Just look out for Swango while you’re down there. But once you’re done with him? You’re gonna’ come find me. And we’re gonna’ talk about this little pipe dream you have about me and my teeth. Unless you’ll need to go get someone else to handle that fight for you, too.
When Aiya heard the implication of Miller knowing what he wanted echoed in Aiya’s ears, she quickly stopped and looked back over at him. She stayed quiet as he spoke … and then smirked upon hearing the answer.
“Headhuntress” Aiya: Not necessarily ‘handle’ it, per se. But do know … that’s probably gonna have to wait till next season. Both of our WrestleFest fights have all but been decided. I doubt we’ll be double booked. However … if that’s really what you want? Okay then. I’ll see you next season. Luckily for you, I had full intentions of dropping into Paramount next year also.
Aiya gives Miller something in between a wave and salute as she leaves the locker room, offering some last parting words before completely vanishing from view.
“Headhuntress” Aiya: Ja ne … yaro.
Miller: Itsu demo, meinu.
Turning from the door, Miller’s eyes immediately locked back on the cameraman. And held fast.
Miller: Didn’t I ask you a question earlier?
The feed quickly cut to black.
'Some Like It Hot!!' by Raon Lee hits as the crowd cheers, while the arena goes dark and a large number of figures in samurai outfits dawning yokai masks come walking down the mat and surround the ring. Then Narumi and Megumi arrive in yukatas with sheathed weapons strapped to themselves.
Evans: Wow, what’s the Indy Champion and Megumi got going on here? Narumi said something about Prime being an island of oni now, is that what this is?
Kushnir: Onigashima is what she said. And the ring is the Senshi’s dojo. Our eccentric champion is taking lots of liberties now with this mysticism, Dio’s enlightened thinking might take exception to what she’s allowing on the brand now that she’s the champion!
The Senshi of the Blade are the only ones to enter the ring as they’re passed microphones. The Senshi hear the crowd and smile.
Megumi: It is our honour to serve the way of the blade before all of you people! We will do our best against Halo Syndicate and Sabotage’s Eddie Dozier and Callie Clark at Wrestlefest!
Narumi: I guess Tyler is busy. It’ll be nice to see Callie again after it’s been so long since our canoe trip together. And I wonder what the Syndicate will say this time, since calling us bimbos from Japan multiple times is what they do when they’re trying to be respectful. Sabotage may insult joshi culture, but at least Eddie can reluctantly acknowledge my role as Indy Champion, the Syndicate is next level ignorant to what respect even means.
Megumi: If respect is not given peacefully, it shall be handed over by the blade Narumi-chan.
Narumi: Indeed Megumi-chan, but they’re not the only ones. Dio spent much of the last few months questioning the worth of our honour. He took his battle with Aiya and dragged the rest of the land of the rising sun into his jokes. Dio must also taste the blade.
The samurai at ringside lift up their sheathed weapons as Narumi nods.
Narumi: Dio, I figured since you have tonight tailored after you with your lover facing me and you facing Aiya in your specialized match, it was fitting for Wrestlefest to be the opposite! As you face me in Kendo stick match!
The Senshi of the Blade and the yokai at ringside unsheath their weapons to reveal kendo sticks. Narumi has a pink kendo stick as she points it to the camera for Dio to see.
Narumi: This time I will pin or submit you in the middle of the ring.
Megumi and Narumi hold their kendo blades to the air to touch together in comadery as 'Some Like It Hot!!' by Raon Lee hits and they make their leave.

TRIPLE THREAT
FALLS COUNT ANYWHERE
David Miller
Vs Snoop Solano
Vs Lorenzo
Match Writer: emma louise
We return to ringside where Marshall and Hayley have a pen/sword fight.
Evans: We move now from pink kendo sticks to what should be an absolute fight. It's a Triple Threat X-Division clash between Snoop Solano, David Miller and Lorenzo.
Reid: The following match, set for one fall, is a Falls Count Anywhere, Triple Threat X-Division Match. Joining us first, from Cali, Columbia and weighing in at 214 pounds ... SNOOP SOLANO!
Snoop Solano marches down the ramp through a smoke screen of apparent dry ice, his white vest showing his cut chest and abdomen. He gives a shout of “Come On” stepping into the ring giving his vest to the stage hand as Thief’s Theme begins to fade in the background.
Reid: And the opponents, fist from South Los Angeles , weighing in at 185 pounds ... LORENZO!
Livin La Vida Loca hits the PA system and Lorenzo walks out onto the stage rotating his hips a bit. On his left Cousin Enrique . 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 Maria as he waits for his opponent
Reid: And from Long Beach, California and weighing in at 235 pounds the North American Champion... DAVID MILLER!
As the aggressive cadence of Damnation Plan's “Judgement Day” rips through the speakers, the lights shift to rapid strobes as David Miller marches out from behind the curtain, head bowed and fists clenched. A sudden twist cracks the bones in his neck as he starts down towards the ring, paying no attention to the mixed reaction of the crowd. Reaching the floor, he climbs the ring steps and ducks between the ropes, silently pacing the inside of the ring while peeling off his jacket. Tossing it aside he moves to his corner and turns, locking his eyes on his opponents as he awaits the bell.
DING DING DING
Lorenzo runs throwing himself at Solano and unloads with a series of Right Hands. Miller cracks him from behind with a Forearm to the back of the skull and an uppercut before sending Lorenzo off the ropes. Miller ducks Lorenzo and Solano grabs him dropping Lorenzo onto Miller's back with what may be a literal Spinebuster. Solano grabs Lorenzo and rams him head first into the corner. Solano charges. Lorenzo gets his feet up but Solano pushes Lorenzo over the top rope to the apron. Solano runs at Lorenzo who leans through the ropes jamming a shoulder into Solano's midsection before slingshotting back into the ring, rolling over Solano's back and off the ropes. Solano exits the ring to the apron, grabs a rebounding Lorenzo and drops his throat on the top rope as Solano drops to ringside. Enrique punches Solano hard in the kidney. Solano staggers forward as Lorenzo comes flying over the top rope with a Tope Con Hilo. From behind Miller shoves Lorenzo into the ringside steps. Miller then Snap Suplexes Solano onto the commentary table before leaping from the steps and Elbow Dropping Solano from the table to the floor. Miller contemplates his next move when he's blasted from behind with a chair. Enrique continues his attack with two more chair shots. Enrique drops the chair on the heap that is Miller before grabbing a handful of chicken wings from the commentary table.
Lorenzo gets to his feet and runs. He leaps over the steps and crashes down on Miller with a 450 Splash. He covers Miller.

Solano grabs Lorenzo and rolls him up.

Miller breaks it up by diving at both men. He covers Solano
ONE...

Evans: Can you believe it? This match almost ended on a Roll Up.
Kushnir: After those chair shots, I'm surprised this match is still in progress.
Miller pulls a table from under the ring. It has a Baseball bat on it. He throws the bat to the side and slides the table into the ring followed by himself. As Miller sets the table up in the middle of the ring, Solano slides into the ring and runs at Miller. He grabs Solano and crashes him through the table with a Spinning Spinebuster.
ONE...
TWO...
THR... NO! KICK OUT!
Lorenzo flies in hitting Miller with the bat to break the count. Miller gets to his feet clutching his shoulder. He charges at Lorenzo who ducks. Miller spins on the balls of his feet and charges again. Lorenzo spins Miller hitting a Standing Spanish Fly.

Solano cracks Lorenzo with a piece of table breaking the count. Miller rolls out of the ring as Solano and Lorenzo get to their feet. Snoop jumps rolling Lorenzo in a Columbia Roll.

Evans: Rolled him up like a pretzel and he still kicked out.
Kushnir: It's the finale, everyone is finding a little more strength
ONE...
TWO...
THREE!
DING DING DING
Reid: And your winner, via pinfall ... DAVID MILLER!!!
Evans: That there is why he's a champion. He came here, went through a war and still manages to leave with a win.
Kushnir: Your fanboying again. That said, Lorenzo and Snoop did give him a fight. He may be leaving here as the winner but he had to go through a hell of a fight for it.
Miller rolls out of the ring and holds his championship in the air in victory as he heads up the ramp clutching his ribs as he goes.
Evans: So what we got next?
Kushnir: Next, I'm being told, we're catching up with Rushin' Roulette as they travel to the Manhattan Center
The camera cuts to ...
The camera cuts to what we assume is footage from earlier in the day, as we apparently find ourselves upon the Great Plains of Northern America. EWC Tag Team Champions Rushin' Roulette are sat atop a wooden horse-drawn carriage, being piloted with surprising proficiency by Ace King who surveys the landscape around them with a smile.
Ace King: I wonder where the Old Town Road is...
The Gambler chuckles, though El Pablo appears strangely unenthused by their present situation.
El Pablo: Yeah, I'm still not entirely comfortable with this...you know my people are always the bad guys in these things.
Ace King: At least I’m not screwed if we end up in some kind of regionally-neutral standoff… Besides, aren’t you English?
El Pablo: I dunno; it's hard to keep track.
Ace King: It can be, yes, but I don’t think we have to worry too much about firepower if something does go down.
El Pablo: That is true...I'm always packing.
EP dips into his pocket and pulls out a fistful of Skittles, which he tosses into his mouth. As the two continue talking, the setting strangely begins to flicker behind them.
Voice: CUT!
After a few more seconds of flickering, everything disappears, revealing Rushin’ Roulette to be in front of a green screen, sitting on standard grade-school chairs. With the jig clearly up, Ace and El Pablo simply shrug their shoulders.
Ace King: Well, the wheels really came off fast, didn’t they?
El Pablo: Sure hope that's not prophetic.
Ace King: I think we’re probably fine for now. We didn’t need tricks to become the Tag Team Champions, and we won’t need them against the Halo Syndicate, either.
El Pablo: That's true; Samson Squared said in the build-up to tonight that they're gonna use the two of us as their personal messaging service; well, I can tell you right now how that broadcast's gonna go: Hey, look - Skittles! Zzzzzzz… What happened?
Ace King: Profound.
El Pablo: Hey, just you wait; in a few weeks, half the roster's gonna be singing it!
Ace King: They may well be singing a different tune; given what we’ve got and where we are, I feel like we’ve basically got a stampede on our hands from now through WrestleFest.
El Pablo: Whoever said "it's lonely at the top" clearly never held a title in the EWC.
Ace King: Helps to have a Day One by your side, no doubt.
El Pablo: Amen to that.
The two take their Tag Title belts from off their respective shoulders and tap them together in a toast.
El Pablo: We wouldn't have it any other way though, right?
Ace King: It just wouldn’t be right otherwise.
El Pablo: So, whaddya say? Two shows left to make a statement…
Ace King: More than enough, because we’re not just here to take part.
El Pablo: We're not just here to play games.
Ace King: ...We’re here to take over, and we’re going to show what tag team wrestling means to us.
As he finishes talking, there’s a commotion from off-camera; realizing what’s going on, Ace and El Pablo scurry off the set as the feed cuts to…

Evans: The action tonight has been hotter than that bland as shit wing I just ate. And there's no sign that letting up next as Iggy Swango takes on our Indy Champion, Narumi Tsutsumi.
The guitar strums of "Moonage Daydream" echo through the arena as the lights dim low. Strobe lights begin to flash on stage. Soon, Iggy Swango walks from behind the curtain as smog engulfs her. She pauses, adjusts her sun glasses, before making her way down the ramp
Its a slow deliberate walk, as she is clearly vibing to the music. After entering the ring, She looks up to the ceiling, and throws her hands up in a classic rock and roll pose
Reid: The following match is set for one fall. Joining us first, standing at five feet eight inches tall, weighing in at one hundred and forty-five pounds, from San Francisco, California, representing DSR VOL II and America's Most Hated, Iggy Swango!!!
Iggy starts bouncing on the stage and rocking out with an air bass playing along with the music before making her way down the ramp. Iggy rolls under the bottom rope and pops up on her knees in the middle of the ring. She slowly stands her to her feet before raising her hands into the air once more.
Reid: And the opponent, making her way to the ring, weighing in at 125 pounds, from Shinjuku Japan. The EWC Indy Champion.......she is the Onihime……..NARUMI TSUTSUMI!
Stage spotlights shine down in the dark as "The Baddest" by Raon Lee begins to play with the oni princess skipping onto the scene in a pink oni mask. Narumi waves at the fans as the spotlight follows her. As she makes her to the ring apron, she turns to the camera to take off her mask and blows a kiss as the lights turn back on in the arena. She enters the ring to skip around and wave at the crowd.

Reid: And your winner, via pinfall... NARUMI TSUTSUMI!!!
Evans: A big win for the Indy Champion heading into Wrestle Fest!
Kushnir: Iggy came close to a win as well. That shouldn't go unsaid. If the Disco Hades or the Noise Pollution connected, we could easily be discussing an Iggy victory here tonight.
Narumi holds the Indy Championship aloft before bowing respectfully to the four sides of the ring before holding the championship aloft once more as she heads up the ramp
Evans: With Wrestle Fest on the horizon, you gotta believe Narumi will be watching Dio's match with 'Headhuntress' Aiya later tonight
Kushnir: Speaking off Aiya, I'm told we can catch up with her right now.
The camera cuts to ...
The cameras fire up backstage at the locker room door of "Headhuntress" Aiya, where she’s watching the rest of the show play live when she’s interrupted by a very slow clap. She looks up to see King Flip.
"Headhuntress" Aiya: … And what the hell do you want, exactly?
The King puts his hands up with a smile.
King Flip: Wa-hey now, Aiya. No need to be so curt with me, lady. I only wanted to come back here tonight to congratulate you on representing your brand for the second time this year as you move forward to the… Jesus, what are we calling it? Fantastic Five-way? Whatever they label it, Headhuntress, I just wanted to look you in the eye and say it. Congratulations.
Aiya raises an eyebrow as she quietly studies King Flip … clearly doubting him. Simultaneously, she can’t detect any definite proof he’s lying. She also notes he at least hasn’t tried anything foolish or hasty. So, for now, she nods … seeming to accept his words.
"Headhuntress" Aiya: Alright. If that’s really what you came for, thank you. Since you seem to be genuine enough at the moment, I’ll return that back so … congrats for you also earning the right to fight at WrestleFest for the X-Division Championship.
Aiya smirks as she adds onto that last sentence. Flip is about to retort when Aiya tacks on another remark.
"Headhuntress" Aiya: Just don’t expect me to play nice. I’m not very good at it.
The King gives her a nod and extends his right hand to her.
King Flip: Oh, I saw exactly how you ‘play’ back at Parabellum. I saw the way you work when everyone’s out for themselves and… I’ve gotta be honest, Aiya. I respect that. Y’see, a lot of people are going to look at your stature and say to themselves ‘what the hell is a little girl doing in such a hostile environment?’ But not me, no. I’ve seen you work. And I look forward to the end cap of the year with a smile. The only question I have for you, Headhuntress, is are you ready?
Aiya merely nods as she takes Flip’s hand and accepts the shake.
"Headhuntress" Aiya:If I were ever not ready or prepared in any form or fashion? Let me just put it this way … I wouldn’t be here to start with. I never would have found the EWC. My old life? If you were ever caught off guard …
She snaps her fingers.
"Headhuntress" Aiya: I’m sure you can understand well enough where I’m going with that, yeah?
You can tell he doesn’t.
King Flip: I’ve seen Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. I smell what you’re stepping in. I just hope that Dio doesn’t hurt you out there in the submission match tonight. I’d hate to have something I could so easily take advantage of to win the belt I’ve been seething for all season. Good luck out there, Aiya. Make ‘em tap.
Flip backs away, firing finger guns at Aiya.

Match Writer: emma louise

Evans: While Aiya prepares for Dio later tonight, his Wrestle Fest opponent, Narumi Tsutsumi, is in tag team now as her Senshi Of The Blade team grapples with the Halo Syndicate.
Reid: The following match is a tag team contest and it is set for one fall. Joining us first, at a total combined weight of 247 pounds, Carrie and Nina Samson ... HALO SYNDICATE!

Kushnir: HI'm being told that Jenna Salvatore is in the back on the trail of another story. Jenna what've you got?
The camera cuts to ...
We cut backstage to Jenna Salvatore who walks with a cameraman looking to find any sort of scoop. She walks right into Iggy Swango.
Jenna stops Iggy's walking and raises the microphone.
Jenna: Iggy, Iggy. Pleasure running into you here on PRIME. I was curious if you had any reply to Aeon Khronos? And have you seen the WrestleFest card?
Iggy removes her sunglasses and slides on her jacket before sliding one of the arms of her glasses into her breast pocket. She gives Jenna a friendly smile that masks a sense of annoyance she feels.
Iggy: I answered the star's message a long time ago. I don't know what Aeon wants with me, but I've got some pent up frustrations and I'm fine with imagining both Aeon and Emma Louise as AC Delaney. I will show them what the stars taught me, and then in 2022 I will have my best season yet.
With that Iggy Swango walks off out of camera shot.

'Headhuntress' Aiya
Vs Dio
Match Writer: emma louise
We return to ringside where we see Hayley Kushnir.
Kushnir: Time to see who has the stamina and the high pain threshold as tis the season for a Submissive erm Submission Match as Dio and 'Headhuntress' Aiya battle it out to see who taps out first.
Reid: The following match is a Submission Match where the only way to win is by Submission. Joining us first, from Kyoto, Japan and weighing in at 137 pounds ... 'HEADHUNTRESS' AIYA!
As “Killer” by JJ Lin plays over the PA system, a fog appears near the curtains. As it slowly fades away, we see the form of “Headhuntress” Aiya standing at the top of the ramp. She saunters down, entering the ring through the middle and top ropes. Aiya then leans against the ring, already looking as if she’s making a game plan in her head whilst waiting for her opponent to enter the ring.
Reid: And the opponent, residing in Seattle, Washington and weighing in at 205 pounds, he is your crux ... DIO!
The lights dim down, and a voice comes over the PA system.
”I am your Crux.”
The phrase kicks off the sounds of “Change (in the house of flies)” by the Deftones as Dio emerges from the curtain and stands atop the stage. He surveys the crowd, tugging at the collar of his leather jacket before heading down toward the ring.
DING DING DING
Aiya slaps Dio hard on the jaw before attacking with forearms. Aiya whips Dio off the ropes and Hip Tosses Dio. Aiya quickly applies an Armbar that Dio just as quickly slips out off. Dio gets to his feet and runs at Aiya who Dropkicks Dio's knee sending him crashing to the canvas where Aiya applies an Ankle Lock. Again, Dio quickly escapes the hold. Dio and Aiya circle each other before Dio hits Aiya in the left shoulder with a Standing Dropkick. Aiya clutches her arm in pain but Dio grabs it and elbows it repeatedly driving Aiya to the mat. Dio Legdrops down onto the injured shoulder. Aiya clutches her shoulder screaming in pain. Dio Irish Whips Aiya but pulls on her arm instead of releasing her wrenching her shoulder. Dio pulls Aiya to the mat and applies an Armbar. Dio wrenches it as hard as he can but Aiya is able to kick Dio in the head breaking the hold. Aiya dives at the back of Dio's left knee wit a Chop Block. Aiya climbs to the middle turnbuckle and comes down on Dio's knee with a Coup De Grace. Dio thrashes about in pain even pushing the ref away. Dio drags his way to the corner and pulls himself to his feet. Aiya charges but Dio, instinctivly, gets his feet up to block. Aiya catches Dio's left leg and pulls him out of the corner before Dragon Screwing him to the canvas.
Evans: Smart strategy here. Pick a body part and weaken it.
Kushnir: Aiya's shoulder and Dio's knee which one will weaken to the point of a submission first?
Both are on their feet. Aiya kicks at Dio's bad knee but Dio tries to fend her off by lashing out with a Right Hand. Aiya ducks and hits Dio with a Side Suplex. Aiya grabs Dio's leg and leaps over him wrenching the knee further. Dio again thrashes around in pain as Aiya rolls out of the ring grabbing a chair. Aiya smacks Dio's knee with the chair before stabbing it down onto Dio's knee. Aiya raises the chair but Dio uses his good leg to kick the chair out of Aiya's grip. Both try to grab the chair and Aiya gets to it first. She tosses it at Dio then kicks it into his face with an SOS. Dio falls out of the ring.
Aiya goes out of the ring after him but Dio grabs her and pulls Aiya shoulder first into the barrier. Dio pulls himself to his feet and grabs Aiya throwing her back into the ring. Dio slides into the ring after her and quickly applies a Cross Armbreaker. Aiya screams in pain. She stretches her arms and legs trying to reach the ropes. She can't but she can, and does, punch at Dio's knee until the pain forces him to break the hold. Both get to their feet before Dio grabs Aiya hitting Inevitable.
Evans: He hit it but can he capitalise on it?
Kushnir: Can anyone?
DING DING DING
Reid: And your winner, via submission ... 'HEADHUNTRESS' AIYA!!!
Evans: A HUGE win here tonight. This result will go far for Aiya leading to Wrestle Fest and possibly into next season.
Kushnir: Dio gave it all he could but I do question if he had more in him or if he gave up to save himself for Wrestle Fest. Personally, I believe the former and I hope both heal up in time for Wrestle Fest in a few weeks.
Aiya holds her right arm in the air in victory before grabbing the bad left arm. Aiya clutches it as she makes her way up the ramp.
Evans: That result shocks me, I was not expecting that.
Kushnir: I wanna go see if he's OK. While I do, I'm told we can go to Scorpio as he prepares for out main event,
The camera cuts to ...
We cut to backstage and boos rain down from the fans watching on the X-Tron as the Showtime Broadcast Champion fills the screen. Scorpio is sat in front of the mirror in his dressing room and is carefully applying mascara as we join him. The sound of the dressing room door shutting behind him fills the air and he grins slightly.
Scorpio: What’s the word on the street, Créme? Is Dozier desperately praying for the match to be cancelled yet?
He switches to the next eye as no answer comes from Créme.
Scorpio: He’s a good wrestler I’ll grant him that, but it’s going to take more than a temper tantrum and some strong forearm strikes to separate me from my darling title…
The Prime Minister glances to the Showtime Broadcast Championship sat on the table next to him. Still no answer comes.
Scorpio: Créme?
Nothing.
Scorpio: Créme will you fucking answer me?!
He spins around in his chair and recoils immediately. The camera pans around to show Dalilah Ashe sitting in a makeup chair directly across from him. Her airy stare is both vacant and unnerving. Scorpio’s mouth curls into an uncertain smile as his left hand reaches for his nearby hairdryer - the bejewelled weapon known as Vidal.
Scorpio: If this is some sort of vengeance for the beating I gave you on the last Prime…
Evans: Scorpio and Dalilah went at it over the Showtime Broadcast Championship on Prime 89… who knows what Ashe has planned for him this week?!
She smiles at him with a little giggle, stretching her arms and legs before going for a quick spin in the chair like a little girl on a merry-go-round. Scorpio pulls Vidal closer to his chest and looks around hoping that Crème would get her ass back from wherever she'd gone. When Dalilah comes back around to face him again she leans forward, slowly reaching into her pocket causing Scorpio to tense his body to brace against her intended attack.
From her pocket she produces a fat black Sharpie marker and a square of clean white paper which she offers to him with what looks like a trembling hand. Scorpio is thoroughly perplexed by this strange display; he is even more taken aback by the question that follows.
Dalilah: I was... just wondering... if... I could have your autograph?
Kushnir: Autograph?!
Evans: Did Dalilah Ashe just say she wants the Prime Minister’s autograph?!
Scorpio sits and waits for the other Louboutin to drop. Surely this must be some kind of trick?! But Dalilah just sits there wide-eyed and hopeful until he very carefully takes the marker and quickly scrawls his signature across the paper in her hand. Delighted she snatches it to her chest with girlish glee, holding it close like a cherished prize. Breathlessly she struggles to say something that all comes out in a rush of shy excitement.
Dalilah: Oh thank you! I was so afraid that after all the mean things I said about you before our match that you might be mad at me. I mean I called you ugly... YOU.... UGLY. I'm so sorry, but I was just trying to do my best because I want to be like you. I want to be a beautiful STAR! Just. Like. You. Are.
Scorpio nods. At this point he is positive that someone has slipped something into his Evian because this had to be some kind of Alice in Wonderland level hallucination. He blinks his eyes hard but every time they open Dalilah is still sitting there smiling at him with crazy eyes and a grin that would make the Cheshire cat question her sanity. For one of the first times in his life he is at a total loss for words, not to mention being a little afraid for his safety.
The tension is finally broken by the sound of Crème talking loudly as she finally returns to the room. Hearing him come in Dalilah seems to grow nervous and she stands up suddenly, making Scorpio pull back a bit in his chair.
Dalilah: Oh I'm sorry! Stupid, stupid, I forgot you were getting ready for a match. I really shouldn't be bothering you. And thank you again for this.
She holds out his autograph with pride like someone might show off their prize blue ribbon for pie baking at the county fair. As Crème grows closer Scorpio turns to demand that she do something about all this but when he turns back Dalilah has disappeared. It was like she had never even been there and again Scorpio thinks for a moment that he might have dreamed her up. Crème enters the room with a beaming smile, however as she spots the confusion on Scorpio’s face her own expression softens.
Crème: Everything ok?
Scorpio: That… that odd Ashe woman… you saw what she had in her hand?
Crème: Why would I have seen her hand?
Scorpio: You just passed her in the corridor.
Crème: Only person I passed was that hot new runner for the set department… might see if he fancies getting to know the business a little more… if you know what I mean?
She jiggles her fake breasts however Scorpio remains stone-faced, now paling slightly. Scorpio sits himself down in the chair he was in earlier and stares blankly ahead.
Scorpio: … she was right here… I signed a fucking autograph for her…what the fucking fuck?!
Crème: Ashe?!
Scorpio: … odd woman… very odd woman…
He turns back and reaches for his mascara before realising it has gone. His eyes dart to the door realising Ashe must have taken it before the scene fades.
Evans: Well that was… unusual…
Kushnir: Dalilah Ashe is a woman who goes on a frenzy in the ring, but tonight she looked like… a fan of Scorpio?!
Evans: Well there’s a lot to be a fan of I suppose! We’ll see if Dalilah Ashe’s man of interest can keep that title for fourth time in our main event NEXT!

SINGLES MATCH
SHOWTIME BROADCAST CHAMPIONSHIP
Vs SCORPIO
Match Writer: emma louise
We return to ringside where Marshal Evans stares at a near empty basket of chicken.
Evans: There's something in these sauces. I'm seeing ghosts now. Still not to worry. While I check to see if Ghostbusters really are listed in the New York area, we have a massive clash now as Eddie Dozier seeks to bring down the finale curtain on Scorpio's Broadcast Championship reign.
Images of rain falling on cement are seen on the big screen as "Raining Blood" by Slayer begins to play. When the guitar riffs begin, the lights in the arena turn yellow. Eddie Dozier steps out from the back to a loud chorus of boos. Dozier has a look of disgust on his face as he bends down and starts rocking back and forth.
As Dozier stretches out his arms and wipes down his vest, he calmly walks down to the ring, ignoring all of the haters.
Reid: The following match is set for one fall and it is for the Showtime Broadcast Championship and is your main event of the evening. Ladies and gentlemen. It is the EWC's privilege to bring back to you the EWC's Nightmare! Weighing in at two hundred and fifty-five pounds. Louisville, Kentucky's finest. EDDIE DOZIER!
Dozier smirks at the rowdy boos when his name is announced. He climbs up onto the apron and enters the ring through the ropes. He walks around the ring and yells out into the crowd as they boo louder. With a smirk, he steps into the corner to wait for his opponent.
'Rule Britannia' hits the speakers as red, white, and blue lighting flashes around the arena. The crowd begin to boo loudly as the imagine of a waving Union Jack is displayed on the X-Tron. Superimposed on this is the message "Please be upstanding for your Prime Minister". After a little while the orchestral music fades down...
Reid: And the opponent, Please welcome, from London, England, weighing in at 205 lbs, the Showtime Broadcast Champion... 'The People's Camp', 'The Baddest Bitch On The Planet', 'The Prime Minister'... 'THE S-FACTOR' SCORPIO!
'Iconic' - Madonna feat. Chance The Rapper hits the speakers as the house lights go down, switching to a spotlight focused on the curtain. It parts, revealing 'The S-Factor' Scorpio stood behind, a hand on his hip cutting a beautiful silhouette. He sashays forward, a long coat dripping in jewels swaying with every step. Behind him steps Crème de la Crème, Scorpio's drag queen confidant and manager. The two look to one another and nod, before Scorpio opens his coat and drops it to the floor, revealing another stunning outfit. He steps down the ramp with a confident strut, emulating that of the catwalk models of Paris and Milan, before reaching the ring. Scorpio climbs up one set of steps as Crème climbs the other, parting the ropes to allow 'The S-Factor'' in. Stepping into the middle of the ring Scorpio raises one arm, and blows a kiss with the other, a smile forming on his beautifully made-up face.
DING DING DING
Scorpio runs at Dozier who catches him with a dropping Spinebuster. Dozier hits out with Right Hands to Scorpio before grabbing Scorpio and dumping him into the corner. Dozier rams his knees into Scorpio's midsection before Irish Whipping Scorpio to the opposite corner. Scorpio manages to jump to the middle turnbuckle and crash down onto Dozier with a Flying Clothesline. Scorpio runs at Dozier leaping for a Hurricanrana but Dozier counters it into a Bucklebomb he follows up with a Spear. As Scorpio clutches his ribs, Dozier grabs him in an Armbar and rams elbows into the face of Scorpio. Dozier lifts Scorpio up hitting a Powerbomb and makes a cover.

THR.... NO! KICK OUT!
Scorpio gets a hand under the bottom rope to break the count. Dozier gets to his feet and reaches for Scorpio who shoves Dozier through the ropes to the floor.
Evans: Smart move creating distance.
Kushnir: Exactly. If not, this may be over soon.
Dozier slides right back into the ring and walks right into a Superkick. Dozer gets back to his feet only t get cracked on the side of the head with a Roundhouse Kick before dropping Dozier down to the mat with a Corkscrew Neckbreaker. Dozier gets back to his feet and is grabbed by Scorpio who hits a Snap Suplex quickly followed by a Standing Moonsault. He hooks the leg.
ONE....

THR.... NO! KICK OUT!
Evans: Now we have a match!
Kushnir: Scorpio started this slow but with that barrage, he is right back in it.

Scorpio runs for a second Tornado DDT but Dozier counters with a Tilt-a-whirl Backbreaker. Dozier charges at Scorpio who fires a Superkick at Dozier. Dozier catches Scorpio's boot but Scorpio quickly transitions it into an Enziguri. Dozier stumbles around the ring but blasts Scorpio with a huge clothesline. Dozier lifts Scorpio onto the top turnbuckle facing out to the crowd. Dozier climbs to the top turnbuckle himself and lifts Scorpio for a huge Powerbomb. In mid air, Scorpio counters with a Hurrcanrana and both men fall to the canvas below.
Evans: OH MY GOD!
Kushnir: Both men crashed and burned here.
Both men lay in the ring for a moment before slowly dragging themselves to their feet. Scorpio staggers to the middle of the ring where Dozier grabs him hitting a Sacrifice.
ONE....
TWO....
THR.... NO! KICK OUT!
Scorpio rolls onto his side breaking the count. Both men pull themselves to their feet almost leaning on each other to do so. Scorpio falls forward. It's a ruse as he rolls up Dozier with a Fuck You Europe
ONE....
TWO....
THR.... NO! KICK OUT!
Evans: Both men almost winning and both men barely kicking out. Just rolling onto their sides not a lot of strength left.
Kushnir: It may come down to who can hit the move to end this first.
ONE....
TWO....
THREE!
DING DING DING
Reid: And your winner, via pinfall and STILL the Showtime Broadcast Champion ... SCORPIO!!!Scorpio stands as the referee hands him his championship. He raises it to the heavens in celebration but drops to the mat. Crème de la Crème reaches into the ring and drags Scorpio out of the ring and helps him up the ramp.
Evans: Both men gave it their all. Both men had little strength left at the end of this and both men came through a war. However on this night it's Scorpio that comes out on top.
Kushnir: Eddie Dozier fought a hell of a fight here. My hat goes off to him. This could easily have been a victory for him. I'm sure they will cross paths again and I can't wait to be there when they do.
Evans: It's been a great night here tonight but we are out of time and out of hot wings. Season 22 has been a hell of a season and as a now-former GM I want to take the time to say goodnight and thank you all for watching on behalf of myself, Hayley and everyone involved with Prime over the season.
