---------------

Fog spreads throughout the arena, covering the screaming fans as the sound of chainsaws revving up begins to shoot through the arena. The Crowd goes insane as they know this song...




"Tell me why cry?

Tell me why

CHAINSAW BLOOD!!!"

The fans scream for delight people run out on the ramp juggling chainsaws. Followed by an explosion of pyro.





The camera pans around the arena as fans scream for delight and begin their chants of CHAINSAW BLOOD and raise their signs high into the air. 

{日本は傭兵を求めています!}

{混乱を見せてください！}

{ページをめくって、新しい時代を始めましょう!}

{私はラベンダー色です！}

{アンドレア、自分を信じて！}

{モクシーと結婚して！}







暴れろ！

暴れろ！

暴れろ！

暴れろ！

The camera flashes back to the Xtreme-Tron which shows the current FN'R roster... "The Love Child" Jamie Love, Ace King, Andrea Hernandez, Autumn Raven, Cassie Wolfe, Chris Page, Cosmo Goldworthy, Darna Dare, Declan O'Connor, Dickie Watson, Emiko Okita, James Warren, Jason Anderson, Kendrick Kross, Lavender, Luke Saito, Mercenary, Morgan Payne, Moxie, Phoenix Winterborn, Queen Melody Malone, Samantha Hamilton, The Mechanical Animals, Vespertine and Vin Havoc.. We cut back to Chris Page who holds his HBO Broadcast Championship close to his chest, then Lavender holds up her United States Championship. she yells in pride as feed bleeds back into a look at the roster. There's another round of pyro.




And then the camera cuts over to the commentary desk, where Koala Duggan stands with a smile. Polar Duggan stands, bows to the camera and then sits back down. Koala sits down, takes a drink from his water bottle and starts.

KD: Hello ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to EWC Rampage Presents Scars & Stripes 2023! We've got a great show for you tonight, with some of the best hardcore wrestling you'll ever see + B.O.R.T III Finals! 

P-DUG: For once, I am actually looking forward to calling a show. This should be proper insane.    

KD: You got that right. Starting from the top of the card. It's old tag partners turned rivals, Autumn Raven takes on Phoenix Winterborn again.

P-DUG: As you mentioned, these two just have so much history with each other. That's a hard one to call. They've split their wins/losses pretty evenly. But I think in this one, I might take Autumn Raven getting one of her first Pay-Per-View victories on Friday Nights. 

KD: I like it! And then in our second match, Cassie Wolfe Vs Cosmo Goldworthy Vs Jason Anderson. This will be a pretty wild triple threat match. No stakes on the line, but winning on a Pay-Per-View, especially over two others, that will get you to those stakes!  

P-DUG: I think Jason Anderson takes this one. He's got the experience, he's got the hunger. And speaking of hunger, in our next match we've got Andrea Hernandez taking on Moxie. Whoever wins this match is HBO Broadcast Champion at the end of the night. 

KD: Andrea definitely has that hunger, and she might pull off the biggest upset of her career here tonight! And then in our main event. It's The Mercenary Vs Vin Havoc Vs Chris Page Vs Lavender. What this entire tour has been building to, it's the B.O.R.T III Finals. And it's going to be explosive!    

P-DUG: Literally. Grizzly Duggan might be trying to kill these poor bastards. 

KD: All this and more, tonight on Scars & Stripes! And a special shout-out to our sponsor for the tour, Master Detective Archives: RAIN CODE. If you're seeing this promo, it's already out and playable on Nintendo Switch!

The crowd in the arena was quiet but then the lights in the arena as the lights start to change into the color of red. Then you see up on the Xtreme-Tron in big letters “Ruthless Aggression” as Papa Roach” Last Resort” came blasting over the speakers. A song we having hear in a while from the one and only Ruthless Agreession as she is standing on the top of the ramp moving her head wearing a mask moving her head to the music as she the crowd was on their feet as they start singing “Cut my life into pieces ......” as the lights in the arena start to flash like crazy in the color of red.

KD: RUTHLESSSS AGGGRESSSION is here at Scars and Strips!

P-Dug: I can’t even hear myself around here....

The crowd was going nuts as the Ruthless old theme was blasting and some of them was singing it on the top of their lungs. She would sing along with them as she was walking down the ramp but she then turn her back for the camera to get what on her leather jacket spreading her arms like an angel. “Shi no tensh” while some of the fans starts to chant out loud..

Older Generation: “Shi no tensh”i ! CLAP CLAP

She kept walking down the aisle climbing inside of the ring got on the turnbuckle as she scream out “ CAN GO OON living.. Life this... ....” along with the crowd. She jump down off the top rope looking around as some was chanting “Ruthless Aggression” as the older generation fans was chanting “Shi no tenshi” in japanese. She held back some tears as she spoke into the microphone with a bit of a smirk.

Ruthless Aggression: “また家に戻れてよかった…(It good to be back home again...) Many don’t know this is where Ruthless Aggression was born. Right here on this land better know as to some back then as Shi.. No... Tenshi”..... In a little underground off wrestling company that was different and unique. There I met my mentor "Kokushibyō....”

The crowd start to give her hand out of respect to "Kokushibyō” (Black Death) Ruthann looks around a bit.

Ruthless Aggression: There she told me when you put on this mask.. It doesn’t matter if you male or female outside in that ring. All that matter you bring the blood... and as “Shi no tenshi” I did just that...many people felt down at the feet bloody head from toe from me. I either would take a sharp blade and move it back and forth across their forehead and then throw salt in it just to for them to whimp out in pain before I take them and give them my Rude Awaken... I even one time took a crowbar and beat a person over and over again in a Falls counts anywhere... to show I will be the woman standing there. There is a reason back then they call me the Angel of Death and I believe it time to show to the fans who she was...

Ruthless Aggression looks around at everyone.

Ruthless Aggression: In 11 days Brawl is coming over to Rampage to start a war they truly might believe they can win. They are going to be stepping inside of the ring trying to take down Rampage one.. By one.. one in matches. Rampage for the last two War of the Brand Beaten Prime twice in a roll and we are not ready to give up on Ruling these things. So, who will be facing me that night....

Ruthless Aggression looks like she was to say as she shook her head.

Ruthless Aggression: I do not know. It could be Sitiches and Rebel... but they haven’t told me nothing... but whoever it will be I will not be facing them alone. 

The lights in the arena goes black as the crowd was wondering what was going on as they heard a wolf howling as “Lone Wolves” came across the X Tron as an image of a black and white Wolves appears as Sam Tinnesz X KAZZE “Wolves” comes blasting over the speakers. The arena look like everyone could be at a night club. The wolves on the X tron now turn into a image of both Jason and Luke standing there wearing their best suit with a bit of a smirk on their face as it look like they were coming out of the screen right on the ramp.

Luke have his hands inside of his pockets with his white wolf mask up on the top of his head while Jason was wearing his and start to play to the crowd while they were walking down the ramp to the ring. Luke smirks while he start playing out to the crowd. Once Jason get on the top of the apron he looks around at the crowd with a bit of a smirk while he tosses his mask out to the crowd for someone to catch. Luke climb inside of the ring while Ruthann hand over the microphone over to Jason. He smile over at his mother while he point over to her.

Jason Anderson: I have been wanting the world of Extreme Wrestling to have a taste of what Shi no tenshi can do inside of this ring. The things as a child I saw has been burn into my skull and it time for everyone around to display the beauty of how blood can be spilled inside of this ring.

Luke Saito: I have heard stories of Shi no tensh”i from many while I was training. To actually be inside of the ring when that happen will be good but people might believe Lone Wolves wouldn’t be up for that type of “fun.”

Jason Anderson: You see they will be all in for shocked when Shi no tenshi and Lone Wolves become one united force for one night. That night in our match against whoever it could be.... We are ready to show our teeth and sink our fangs into whoever step inside of the ring with us.

Luke Saito: You see I have been graving something lately. It isn’t gold either. It is blood. It is pain. It is every thing you wish that wasn’t going in inside of this mind. Out of these two I still have something to prove to everyone around here. I step inside of that ring over at Paramount want to show I would be able to take the things I have learn here to show why Rampage is the best and I fail in that mission but I am not going to do that twice because this time this isn’t my own mission.

Jason Anderson: That like for tonight in my match against two young upcoming stars of Rampage Cosmo “Money Mo” Goldworthly and Cassie The Rebel Princess. Cosmo mention he feel for me because of the near-impossible expectations that he believe I have to live up too when he don’t need to feel for me because those things isn’t impossible for me because I am paved my own path to expectation. You wish you can live up too. I have set the bar high on myself for ones to reach to the level of Win lose or draw... you can be still be the name that is talk about. You have to understand I don’t base my carrer on wins. I don’t base my carrer on sccesss. I base my carrer just doing what I do best.. And that wrestling and Princess Rebel... you are about to meet a Prince but I am not there to be your Prince Charmer that will take you off into the sunset but push you to become someone down the line can see is a great wrestler...

Luke Saito: I have been stepping inside of this and every time I have so far having picking up wins. People might believe and feel that means I do not have what it takes but don’t let that fool you Brawl Wrestlers. I have what it takes to be inside of that ring. It always matter how you bounce back. I am still standing here ready to take a bite out of anyone who be across me inside of this ring. I am ready to taste some blood!

Ruthless Aggression: You see Lone Wolves and I will be stepping inside of this ring ready to defend our home. Brawl wrestlers I want you to look at me as this wash up wrestler who is here only to live in glory days but in 11 days you will realized this bitch still got it! She is ready to do what she does...

Jason and Luke: LETTTTTTTTT THE BLOOOD FLOW!

Ruthless smirks as mix of “LAst Resort” and Wolves” came blasting over the speakers as they play out to the crowd we fade to...

Back in the parking lot, a limousine is seen pulling up to Nissan Stadium. The driver gets out of the vehicle and walks to the back door. He opens the back door and after a few seconds, 'The Elite' Chris Page steps out with his duffle bag in tow. He slings the HBO Broadcast Championship up over his shoulder and starts walking to the locker room area with a smirk on his face.

As he walks, he hears a voice.

Voice: Excuse me, Mr. Page. A moment please?

Page stops walking and looks over to see Ace Heart walking towards him. Page shakes his head and lets out a huff of breath. 

Page: What do you want, Heart? You still work here?

Hart: Uh, yes sir. I do.

Page: Ain't you been here for like a decade?

Hart: I do believe I am one of the longest-tenured employees here, yes.

Page: Well not for me. You're fired from ever interviewing me. Get out of my face.

Hart sighs and begins to walk away. The camera turns away but Page stops him.

Page: Hold up. Not you. You stay. I've got some stuff to say. I want to clear some things up. For the last few days, I've fielded phone calls and text messages left and right about some of the stupidest shit. First off, there were some people who saw me on a bus and word travels quickly. Then it turns into, "but Chris! If you're so rich, why were you on a public bus in Yokohama?" It's real simple. Number one, who gives a fuck how I travel? Some days it's via a bus and some days I take a limousine. I do it because I can. I have that luxury. Sometimes when you're in a limousine you can't think as straight as you want to. The silence is too loud. So I hopped on a bus. I was able to clear my thoughts because I was around common folk who were on their way to their simple day jobs and I knew that those people weren't going to be ones to bother me. Limousines attract attention and attention wasn't what I wanted at the time. I wanted clear and utter silence. It's ironic, really. The bus was loud but I didn't hear a damn thing. 

Then it was "but Chris! You don't need to be hanging out in grubby, empty warehouses!" There's a reason for that. I wanted a place where I could set the stage for tonight. Because I was "born with a silver spoon", as Lavender said, I have unlimited funds at my disposal. A ring, barbed wire, weapons, tables, what-have-you. I did it because I can. I'm not relegated to a paper and pen lost in my lonesome thoughts like some peasant townie. I did it because I wanted to show the world a preview about what they are about to see tonight. What I showed everyone was a mere flash of the carnage, violence, and chaos that will take place. That's the reason I did it.

You know what is most annoying to me, though? Every single one of those dingleberries ran their mouth about how I "needed" King Flip to help me win the HBO Broadcast Championship. I didn't "NEED" a fucking thing! I didn't ask that half-brained window-licker to interject himself in my match with Moxie. That son-of-a-bitch did it on his own. I said before my match with Moxie that I wasn't about to lose to him a second time and I had no plans on doing so. Fuck King Flip's stupid ass. His interference didn't guarantee that I would win that match because I already had it won when the fucking bell rang.

You three all made big mistakes thinking that I'm only here because I am a Hall-of-Famer's cousin or because I was born with money. I may have had a comfortable upbringing, but there's one thing my old man taught me and it was to always work for everything you earn. I EARNED this goddamn HBO Broadcast Championship, just like I am going to EARN the United States Championship later tonight. It doesn't matter if I have to kick Lavender in the fucking ovaries, shove the Mercenary's testicles down his throat, or chop the head off of that snake Vin Havoc. I'm going to get the job done and prove to everybody that I'm here on my own merit, not anyone else's!

Page storms off towards the locker room. The camera flips back to ringside.

MATCH #1
Autumn Raven Vs Phoenix Winterborn
No DQ - Singles Match
Referee: Mike Michaelson

We return to ringside where Chriqui head into the ring.

KD: Big opening statements from Ruthann, Jason and Luke, and then we heard from Chris Page ahead of tonight's Main Event. And now we've got our first match of the night. It's an old rivalry with a new spark. 

P-Dug: And this should be a good one. 

Chriqui: The following match is a no DQ singles match. Introducing first from Los Angeles, California & weighing in at 125 pounds... AUTUMN RAVEN!!!

The tron plays a scene of the hollywood walk of fame going by slowly, the shadow of a raven seen over each and every star that’s there. As you hear the lyrics ‘Your stars burned out for good, somewhere in Hollywood’, the shadow flies into the one star without a name, writing out Autumn’s name on it, the star turning to a dingy, grungy picture with graffiti written all over it.

As the first part of the song starts up, Autumn appears from backstage, slowly walking out, coming to a stop at the top of the ramp as she surveys the crowd with a cold smirk on her face. She stands there for a minute before making her way down the ramp slowly, walking once around the ring before sliding under the bottom rope and hopping to her feet, making her way to the corner to climb to the top ringpost. She flings her arms out to the side, laughing at the crowd.

KD: Autumn Raven hasn't had a Pay-Per-View singles match in quite some time, this could be her chance to really break out of a slump she's had this year and propel herself forward!

P-Dug: Beating a former champion is always a good place to start. 

Chriqui: And her opponent from Chicago, Illinois & weighing in at 223 pounds... PHOENIX WINTERBORN!!!

Red spotlights hit the stage, as Phoenix's video comes up on the tron

The chorus of the song kicks in, as Phoenix throws back the hood of his sleeveless jacket, pointing out towards the crowd, who is in the midst of racous cheers for him. Marissa Davidson appears by his side, resting a hand on his shoulder, her other hand running through her hair as the duo make their way towards the ring, interacting with the fans scattered along the rampway. As Phoenix hops up onto the apron, he waits for Marissa to climb the ringside steps before sitting on the middle rope to let her in, before rolling in himself and running towards the opposite turnbuckle, throwing him arms out for the crowd while his music dies down.

KD: But beating Winterborn is easier said than done, he's not had a stellar year himself but he's still a former champion for a reason.

P-Dug: That's quite right, even the worst EWC Champion in history, is better than the best freelance champion you can find!

DING DING DING

With the sound of the bell, Raven and Winterborn make their way to the center of the ring. Autumn Raven fires a paint-brush slap into Winterborn's face. Winterborn answers back with his own back-hand. Autumn Raven fires in two slaps, a forearm to the jaw, and then she backs to go for Claw Of The Night earlier, but Winterborn ducks the leg and hoists her up and down into a powerbomb. Autumn rolls out of the ring to catch some breath and rub her back. 

KD: Methodical pace to this one currently, that's smart wrestling. 

P-Dug: In a no DQ environment, you need to play it smart or you'll lose the match, and maybe your career. 

Autumn Raven goes under the apron and gets to chairs. She slides them both into the ring, the first right at Winterborn's feet. Winterborn picks up the chair and looks the strike, but Autumn doesn't raise hers. She sets it up and takes a seat. Phoenix Winterborn smiles and does the same. They then begin to take turns slapping the other while seated. Winterborn slap, Autumn slap, Winterborn slap, Autumn slap, Winterborn slap, Autumn slap, Winterborn slap, Autumn punch! Autumn punch! Autumn European uppercut sending both out of their chairs! Autumn quickly gets to her feet and grabs Winterborn's overturned chair, as Winterborn tries to stand she brings it down into the back of his head! Winterborn hits the canvas face first, and then rolls out of the ring. Autumn hits the ropes and soars between the middle and top rope into a suicide dive, while holding the chair! Winterborn's face slams into the chair and he's knocked inside-out, while Autumn eats shit into the barricade because she wasn't able to brace impact holding the chair. 

P-Dug: Autumn throwing caution to the wind, her own body into the barricade to try and win this one. 

KD: High risk, high reward!

Autumn Raven drags herself up the barricade and lets out a yell at the crowd. She holds her arm at her side, appearing to have hurt it, but advances on Winterborn to begin stomping a mudhole in him. Raven starts to extend her arm, and she pumps it a few times to get the blood flowing. She heads under the apron and brings out a table. Autumn Raven sets up the table, and then she drags Winterborn up by his face, and then she throws his face down into the table, through the table! From the crowd someone throws a flathead screwdriver at Autumn's feet, Autumn grabs the screwdriver, grabs Winterborn's hair, and then uses the sharpened tip as a razorblade to slice open Winterborn's head! Autumn then stabs down into Winterborn's head, and then she licks the knife!

YOU SICK FUCK, YOU SICK FUCK, YOU SICK FUCK

KD: I might have to agree with the crowd here!

P-Dug: Winterborn has been busted the fuck open!

Blood begins to pour down Winterborn's face, into his eyes, into his mouth. He yells out in pain as the iron stings his eyes and temporarily blinds him. Autumn Raven pulls Winterborn up and slams his head into the apron before rolling him into the ring... COVER!

ONE!... KICKOUT BY WINTERBORN!

P-Dug: Phoenix Winterborn just kicked out at one! He's got more in the tank!

KD: Wow!

HOLY SHIT, HOLY SHIT, HOLY SHIT

Autumn Raven looks at Winterborn in shock, as he jumps up to his feet and begins to slap himself in the head. Autumn rushes at Winterborn into a lariat, Winterborn doesn't flinch, he starts shaking his head violently. Autumn Raven rushes the ropes and comes in, Winterborn grabs her and hoists her up and down into a falcon arrow! Winterborn drags Autumn up by her head and sends her into the ropes, rebound, SHOTGUN dropkick from Winterborn! Autumn Raven leaves her feet and flies backwards into the corner. Winterborn rushes, jumps off Autumn's still standing chair and lands a Hardyiac Arrest! Winterborn drags Autumn into the center of the ring, into a full-nelson, into a Snap dragon suplex with a cover!

ONE!
.
.
.
TW... KICKOUT BY RAVEN!

Winterborn drops the cover, and then heads to the corner. Winterborn scales up the top turnbuckle, and then poses at the top for the crowd to pop. Then he jumps forward, twisting himself into a beautiful 450, landing with a NO! Autumn Raven moves! Winterborn crashes into the canvas, the impact sends him off his stomach onto his back. Autumn Raven rushes towards the ropes, jumping down into to a handspring that uses the ropes to propel her back onto her feet, into a spin, down into a fist drop... NO! Winterborn sits up, causing Autumn Raven to punch the canvas instead! Winterborn wags his finger no.

KD: Wow! Winterborn is still in this one!

P-Dug: You can say that again.

Winterborn pulls himself up, and yells out in triumph. He drags Autumn Raven up by her hair and spins around into a back-fist. Autumn is knocked loopy and stumbles back. Winterborn goes for another back-fist, Autumn ducks this one and pulls Winterborn down into a neckbreaker! Autumn turns and crawls to the chair, she drags it up and as Winterborn stands, crashes it down into the back of his head. Autumn Raven brings the chair down again, and again, and again. Into Winterborn's head, his back, his legs. Autumn wont's top, Winterborn's stopped protecting himself. Mike Michaelson calls for the bell!  

DING DING DING

Chriqui: And your winner, via referee stoppage ... AUTUMN RAVEN!!!

Autumn Raven brings down the chair once more, and then she goes for it again but Mike Michaelson backs her off. Autumn looks around, realizing she lost control. She throws the chair down. Autumn yells at Winterborn, tells him he shouldn't have stopped defending himself, she wasn't done. She raises her arms and yells at the crowd who boo her. 

KD: Autumn Raven may have a few screws loose, but she's just picked up a victory on Pay-Per-View, and that's going to do great things for her. 

P-Dug: Mike Michaelson threw in the towel for Winterborn, so I am sure he'll have something to say about that.  

KD: Naturally as wrestlers always do. Well don't go anywhere folks, this is a Pay-Per-View, meaning we are right into the next! 

Camera cuts to ...

A bright lemonade stand is shown backstage with drinks, the Prime Minister Necklace, and the Undisputed Championship while to the sounds of cheers Narumi Tsutsumi is shown dancing around the stand as if she was intoxicated. Brian Spade is there having arrived to meet her with all smiles.

Spade: No invasion, no sneaking in to cause a panic, this year you’re an honoured guest we’re glad to have as Undisputed Champion. Welcome to Scars & Stripes. What brings you here?

Narumi: Seeing as it is in my home of Japan and this is the event Shinijoshi technically made its first appearance last year, I felt I should pay a visit. You should have a drink and pass me a few dimes, if you listen to a certain cold hearted king, you’d think me maybe me saying I was scouting last year was interpreted to mean Shinijoshi were literally being nice little lemonade selling girl scouts.

Spade picks up at the jab at King Flip, but takes a look at some of the “lemonade” that is quite clear in colour. He takes a sip and is surprised, while Narumi breaks out in a snicker.

Spade: Is this sake?

Narumi: Live a little Spade! This is Scars and Stripes, the lively American-themed PPV right around the 4th of July!

Narumi takes a drink to enjoy the festivities.

Narumi: I don’t agree with 3pAC often, they even came to World Wide with Xavier….thinking they might be able to party with Xavier’s brother winning the Undisputed Championship from me; BUT those two were right to say the BORT shows Grizzly is the chess master of all the GMs, because the tournament that gets Rampage a shot at this championship every year. And seeing as I’m the current Undisputed Champion and have a rematch clause, I’m thinking I have a solid chance of meeting the winner of the main event this year!

Narumi tips her glass.

Narumi: And what a main event it will be! You have the fearsome battle tested scarred warrior Mercenary, a guy who I admittedly have mixed feelings over since questioned the love I had for my tag partner behind my back, but many in the locker room are pulling for him to finally get his due. There is the abrasive vet, rising EWC star, Vic Havoc, who had quite the wild brawl with my kouhai earlier in the season. And then there’s the cousin of a legend, mentored and bred to be elite, Chris Page in so little time is already a champion! And of course, you have Lavender, the silent princess, the US Champion that can give me a rubber match to settle our score. Whatever happens, the fans are going to have a spectacular show and I’m likely going to have a great opponent.

Spade: Well said. However, I’ve been in this business a long time as an interviewer, I can tell you’ve come to this event with much more on your mind than promoting our evening due faction’s pasr debut here. Especially you, you always have a purpose beyond simple sentimentality. I gather you want to correct the record over what King Flip has been saying about you and Shinijoshi.

Narumi smiles

Narumi: I’m sure he’ll catch wind of this, he’s likely either paying attention or going to be causing trouble since Moxie is competing tonight and we all know Flip likes keeping himself busy getting into fights all around the EWC.

Spade: Very busy, he has valiantly assembled a unit that might put a stop to the House laying wayside to all the EWC. You Shinijoshi have gone to war against the House before, do you think Flip’s group can succeed against an even more viscous version of that faction you faced?

Narumi: I don’t know. You can never count out a group with the arguable GOAT Ace King and people like Stitches and Dio, on top of an admittedly dangerous King Flip himself. All I’ll say to Flip is to not let that make him underestimate the House, they’re a pack of wolves that seem to get hungrier and more sinister by the day and they can rip any divided team apart. Flip doesn’t seem to realize that Jack and I’s oni monikers aren’t a coincidence, Jackass earned it by fighting me to a draw once. I only hope Flip doesn’t get himself hurt before we get to face, barring any more title defences I might have. He and I may not see eye to eye, but with our talents I know we’d put on an entertaining match for the fans and settle our differences in the ring.

Spade: What about you and the Shinijoshi? Don't you think you might be giving Flip ammunition that Shinijoshi lost your original meaning now that not only are you Shinijoshi not assisting him in his war against the House, but you don’t seem to be cheering him on either?

The Onihime stops drinking for a moment to look at Spade and points her drink at him as if to make him ponder her words.

Narumi: Is King Flip any better than the House? He goes on madman ramblings about how Shinijoshi lost our original message lately, despite the fact he doesn’t even watch Prime, and somehow judges me because I congratulate my friends more than I celebrate Callie of all people…as if I should be getting pom poms out for House members for some reason. As for Marcu$, we've said nice things to each other on Fighter Talk frequently. Gabi? She's friends with honorary Shinijoshi Saidie, I credit Gabi for teaching me on my first night in the EWC, and I give her props on social media from time to time...she knows I respect her, even if we aren't close or anything. I’m not the one who goes around injuring wrestlers on purpose in the manner Flip and the House do, so why should I play nice cheerleader for any of them? I’ve never claimed to be joshi Jesus turning the other cheek when people slap me in the face, I’m the ONI princess. And our other main members are an ex gang member feared as a Headhuntress, an Abnormal biker, and a Battleship that loves physicality, what about that screamed quiet perfect angels? I for one know, well behaved women who allow themselves to be doormats rarely make history, that’s why I strike back harder when people try to take a bite out of me….that is why I don’t shy away from entertaining my fans with my bright loud nature! I refuse to tone myself down in complete modesty to make men like Flip comfortable. But unlike Flip, you’ll never find me putting the innocent on the shelf and having Marcu$ coming back to kick my ass at Stranglemania for my crimes.

Narumi shakes her head.

Narumi: Besides, it is a misconception that Shinijoshi’s formation had anything to do with the House. We were the faction first and we simply fought back when the House became our archenemy by trying to take us out. And when we owed Xavier for helping me save Sonya from another House attack, we lived up to our own personal code by showing up to help stop them from screwing Xavier over in return. That’s all there is to it. With that moment passed, we look forward to the trio's tournament and we continue the original purpose of Shinijoshi.

Narumi stands up and strikes the Shinijoshi double deuces pose.

Narumi: We are a unit originated to upset the status quo in the EWC and showcase the many great styles of joshi puroresu! Doing so while enjoying and bettering ourselves, as a family! But we didn’t show up here last year selling cookies and lemonade, we were here to declare our intention to showcase our talents towards the top of the EWC as four female shinigami! On my end, I was the G1 winner and number contender for the Undisputed Championship…..my path has been difficult, but I’d say I kept track of my original mission.

Narumi tilts her head towards her belt, indicating she captured the Undisputed Championship she sought after this time last year. Narumi then makes a fist and points it at the camera.

Narumi: Now I do get that I often promote discipline, but that is not to dictate to others what they should do or should not do with their lives! Rather it is to shine a light on what discipline has done for me and therefore can do for everyone. Growing up I always had a knack for martial arts, but I thought training could be a bore and I did slack off from doing what I could. It wasn’t until I connected with Megumi that I learned training could be fun and the discipline I picked up did wonders for my career. Shinijoshi began as an evolution of Senshi of the Blade, as I convinced Sonya to join the EWC and finally got Aiya to agree to join up with us. Along the way Megumi gave us a kouhai in Emi. We even have Saidie and the joshi legend Cloud as honorary members. Why did we open our doors? Because the senshi soul is beyond rigid credos and national origins, it’s about the spirit of honing your craft like great joshi do, be that to gain mastery in fist and/or weaponry!

Narumi makes a welcoming smile.

Narumi: If anyone wants to train with us Shinijoshi, they’re free to come and ask. And if they’re the right fit, who knows, they can even become part of our family someday. Just know, you will have to train hard to show you have the spirit to be one of us, but once you do you’ll have a bond that lasts the test of time.

??: I may very well take you up on that offer.

The crowd pops as the camera pans over and reveals Samantha “The Titaness” Hamilton emerge from around a nearby corner and steps forward. Narumi almost drops her drink in shock. Brian starts to open his mouth, but Samantha quickly raises a finger as a pensive look appears on her face.

Samantha “The Titaness” Hamilton: Hold up, hold up. Lemme do this more properly, so … allow me to back up.

Sam flashes a coy smile as she literally takes a few steps back before smirking .. and then clearing her throat, replacing some of the smug expression with a more genuinely happy look.

Samantha “The Titaness” Hamilton: So … I know you’ve at least hinted you’ve seen me on my social media. Face to face though? We never got the chance to meet before I had to leave for maternity leave, so … Narumi-san. Very nice to meet you in person. I’m Samantha. You can just call me Sam for short, either works.

Sam taps her chin, contemplating how to proceed with speaking. After gathering her thoughts, she nods and continues.

Samantha “The Titaness” Hamilton: Like I said, we never met in the ring before. But I made it very clear when I left that I was going to watch the EWC very carefully. Some people don’t realize I wasn’t simply referring to Rampage. Of course, this isn’t to say I wasn’t watching my home brand. Far from it — however, I also kept my eye on the other brands and members of each respective roster. And frankly? You caught my eye even before Shinijoshi became a thing. But now that it’s been an official faction for a while … and you seem to have a good friend of mine in the form of Cloud as at least an honorary member of sorts…

Sam nods firmly.

Samantha “The Titaness” Hamilton: You’ve absolutely got my attention.

Before Narumi can speak up, Brian sees an opportunity and chimes in.

Brian Spade: Does this mean you’re giving up your affiliation with The Love Club?

Sam tilts her head, her hand following suit as it moves from side to side in the air.

Samantha “The Titaness” Hamilton: I’d like to think of this as me walking further down my own, new path. That said, I’m by no means abandoning Xavier Reid. We will return as the Xtreme Ravagers – it just won’t likely be this season. I at least spoke to him about that much away from cameras, and he hinted he wants to focus on his singles career. That’s perfectly fair and it’s probably for the best that I do the same now that I’m back. But … I won’t deny there are some people still in there that I’m not exactly keen on being near anymore. Nor that I even view as ‘members’ in any capacity.

Sam gives a sly wink to Brian.

Samantha “The Titaness” Hamilton: That will be elaborated on later. Right now, I really did come here for two reasons; to watch my home brand’s exclusive pay-per-view and, just as importantly, to meet Narumi face to face. That said … now I’ll repeat my first words, as they do hold truth. I just figured it’d make sense to backtrack and explain why I felt that way. So, if you really wouldn’t mind having me … I’ll happily accept your offer.

Narumi blinks, taking it all in, and then smiles a wide grin.

Narumi "The Grade One Yokai" Tsutsumi: It was on social media, but you were nice to me even during my early days in the EWC. And anyone who can make friends with someone as surly as Cloud has to be tough, not to mention you being a multi time champion. I’d be a fool to not let such a gladiator train with us, you’ll have to meet the others but I have a good feeling about it.

Narumi extends her fist for a fist bump which Sam answers in kind with her fist and the show continues on.

Up on the Extreme Tron, Grizzly Duggan smiles at the Yokohama audience.

Grizzly: こんにちは横浜! What a great opening match that was! We’ve got more action to come here tonight, including our BORT final, but first, I want to introduce to you our Guest of Honor tonight, never before seen in the EWC… Yokohama’s own, legendary deathmatch wrestler Nakashima Takashi!

Takashi: ​​ありがとうグリズリー・ダガン！ありがとうEWC！Let’s get extreme!

The crowd cheers as Takashi shakes Grizzly’s hand.

Grizzly: This man, he’s an icon to death match wrestling. The first man in Japanese wrestling to take a piledriver off a balcony through a pane of glass, and he still won that match! This man was hanged off a second story balcony with a noose of barbed wire, and he’s here today before your very eyes. We aren’t worthy!

The crowd goes nuts, and everyone gives Takashi a round of applause.

Grizzly: He will be a special guest bell-man for Andrea Vs Moxie later on in tonight’s show, just don’t get too close, or he might cave your head in with it!

Takashi starts to knock violently on his head while laughing. The two men shake hands and the crowd gives another pop.

Cut to the back as we see a large, barrel-chested security guard with his arms crossed over his chest. Protecting a door that says ‘EWC Personnel Only’, he looks to be some cross between Chuck Norris and The Mountain from Game of Thrones. Dressed in your stereotypical ‘Security’ black shirt and jeans, his eyes gaze over everyone as they pass by.

ALEXANDER UMBRA: I’m telling you Cilan, there is no way in hell that that Taxi Driver was a real person. I SWEAR I saw him glitch out for a second. My brain is just continuing to find new ways to fuck around with me.

The scene pans out and we see Alexander Umbra and his Psychologist friend Cilan Wolfgang Humphries walk in from the left side of the screen. Cilan is decked out in a fresh looking blue suit, while Alex just sports a pair of khaki shorts and a red shirt with white letters that read ‘Kneel before the Mad King’ on it.

CILAN: Whatever you say, Alexander. What are we doing here anyway? This isn’t Brawl, it’s a Rampage sponsored pay-per-view.

ALEXANDER UMBRA: Exactly. And I want to be ready for whatever this twisted little world throws at me, so I want to check out some of the competition here. Don’t need to be surprised by going from Doug and Zack, to some REAL competition.

Alexander goes to walk past the guard into the ‘EWC Personnel’ door, but the guard instantly puts his arm out and blocks him from even getting close to the door.

GUARD: No fan boys allowed. You can wait until after the show for any autographs.

ALEXANDER UMBRA: Well if you excuse me, I am a roster member of the EWC.

The guard smirks and lets out a small chuckle.

GUARD: Sure, kid. I ain’t ever seen ya. So bug off and go buy a better t-shirt than that garbage you got on.

Alexander scoffs as he steps back and looks down at his shirt.

ALEXANDER UMBRA: I need you to apologize, good sir. You shall not talk shite upon the good and holy name of King Flip!

CILAN: Alex, why are you talking like that?

Cilan steps in between Alexander and the guard, a polite smile on his face.

CILAN: Many apologies, my friend. We will be going.

ALEXANDER UMBRA: The hell we will!

Alexander pushes Cilan out of the way and stands face-to-pecs with the guard.

ALEXANDER UMBRA: I am a member of the Brawl brand and I ask for your forgiveness in besmirching the name of King Flip!!!

GUARD: Get lost.

ALEXANDER UMBRA: Fine. If you want to play it like that.

Alexander turns his back to the guard, before whipping back around and trying to run towards the door. But years of the same antics by crazy fans have taught the guard to be ready and he catches Alexander before he can get to the door again.

GUARD: I’m not going to ask ag-

POP!

The guard stops his sentence abruptly as Alexander lands a right hook to the guard’s jaw. But…the guard didn’t even move an inch. The look on the guard's face goes from annoyed to angered.

CILAN: What in God’s holy name, did you just do?

The guard uses both hands to grab Alexander by the collar and lift him off his feet.

ALEXANDER UMBRA: Oh...I’m sorry, Mr. Security Man. How silly of me to try and confront you on my own.

GUARD: You done fucked u-

CRACK!

Once again the guard is interrupted by a right hook by Alexander, but this time the guard’s head snaps to the side and a tooth goes flying out as if in slow-motion. Alexander is dropped to his feet as the guard lets go and drops to a knee of his own.

ALEXANDER UMBRA: Meet Daydream!

Alexander holds up his right fist to show he is now wearing his brass knuckles.

ALEXANDER UMBRA: Although Daydream does make a point. Maybe it is better to watch from the crowd. Gets a real authentic feel of this Rampage group.

The guard slowly turns his head to look at Alexander, his face has gone from angered to enraged. Alexander slowly takes a step back to stand side-by-side with Cilan.

ALEXANDER UMBRA: Daydream also makes another good point.

CILAN: What’s that?

ALEXANDER UMBRA: RUN BITCH, RUN!!!

Leaving Cilan behind as the guard wearily gets to his feet, Alexander takes off running in the opposite direction. Not wanting to stick around for when the guard is able to react, Cilan takes off running in the opposite direction as well.

MATCH #2
Cassie Wolfe Vs Cosmo Goldworthy Vs Jason Anderson
No DQ - Triple Threat
Referee: Pierce Patterson

We return to ringside and cut over to the commentary booth where KD and P-Dug are laughing. 

KD: Well it seems one of BRAWL's newest signees has gotten himself into a world of trouble on Friday Night's already. But speaking of trouble, this upcoming triple threat should be a ton of it!

P-Dug: you're not kidding pal, phew momma. 

Chriqui: The following match is a no DQ Triple Threat match. Introducing first from Reno, Nevada & weighing in at 118 pounds... THE REBEL PRINCESS, CASSIE WOLFE!!!

The opening riff of “Wolf Within” hits the speakers and once the lyrics kick in Cassie Wolfe emerges from the back excited to start the match, with her hands on her leather jacket’s sides the rookie wrestler turns her back to the crowd.

When her name is announced Cassie spins around flashing the metal horns sign with her left hand and clapping fans hands with the other, when she reaches the ring Cassie jumps onto the apron before giving her hair a full flip and removing her jacket to give to a stagehand, she then jumps over the top rope and into the ring, rolling to her knees and basking in the moment.

KD: Cassie Wolfe makes her proper EWC debut tonight in this triple threat. Winning big on PPV, that would skyrocket her up!

P-Dug: I think that's the best possible debut you can ask for. 

Chriqui: And her opponent from The Golden State & weighing in at 201 pounds... COSMO GOLDWORTHY!!!

Gold and white lights strobe around the arena as 'Mo Money Mo Problems' blares through the PA boxes. Cosmo Goldworthy swaggers out with a smug grin on his face. He stops at the start of the ramp, extending his arms out. "Enjoy it while 'ya got it, baby!" He shouts out, chuckling to himself as he continues to walk down the ramp. Cosmo looks at the fans reaching out and sneers at them. He slides up the apron and enters the ring, proceeding to march over to the top rope and raise his arms up one more time. Cosmo nods his head to the tune of his theme song, dropping off the top rope. He shimmies his shoulders, removing his Louis Vuitton® sponsored entrance gear before the match begins.

KD: And speaking of debuts, Cosmo Goldworthy is making his Pay-Per-View debut here tonight. He won this Rampage debut last episode. 

P-Dug: A win here, he might even find himself start to be in United States Championship talks!

Chriqui: And their opponent from San Francisco & weighing in at 215 pounds... THE BOSS, JASON ANDERSON!!!

The arena lights start to flash on and off as NF- No Excuses came over the speakers as smoke appears on the Extreme Tron in big letters with his picture Jason Anderson “The Boss”. Jason appears on the stage wearing his hood over his head standing on his right is David wearing a suit and all over his fingers is rings and on his left is Diana wearing all leather black with her shades on her face and blow pop in her mouth. Jason play to the crowd a bit as David and Diana walked on his side walking with him down to the ring.

As he walk down the ramp he stop and turn around point to the back of his hoodie that has his name, his mom and Angel name all in a black heart on the line “Treat my temper like my family, I ain't tryna lose it” He kept walking down to the ramp keeping the hood over his head while the David and Diana play to the crowd.

They stand on the outside as Jason climb inside of the ring as he lean over the rope point overing to Angel. Angel start to jump and down for her father as he winks over at her. He turn back looking over at the person he facing taking off his jacket smirking as a grin come over his face.

KD: Jason Anderson, he's held EWC Gold and he's wrestled under the brightest lights. He's got the experience in this match, I'd imagine he's the odds on favorite to win here. 

P-Dug: And they are called odds for a reason. 

DING DING DING

At the start of the bell, all three competitors check each other out, and then slowly make their way into the center of the ring. Jason Anderson raises up both his hands, looking for a tie-up, Cosmo does the same. Cassie raises up her hands. They engage in a three-way tie-up, but seemingly having the same idea Jason and Cassie drop their hands and send Cosmo into the ropes, on the rebound they both floor him with a double shoulder block, and Cosmo is sent to his back, rolling out of the ring under the bottom rope. Jason and Cassie face each other, this time locking into a proper tie-up, Jason gets the advantage and pulls Cassie around into a waist-lock. Jason transitions from the waist-lock into a full-nelson. Jason uses his height and weight to drag Cassie off her feet and up into the full-nelson, but she midair twists around into a side-headlock. Cassie swings her legs and uses the momentum to bring Jason down into a DDT. Outside Cosmo is on his feet, Cassie kips up and then rushes the ropes outside into a suicide dive, whipping out Cosmo! 

KD: Cassie Wolfe with an early lead in this one so it seems. 

P-Dug: She's using that speed and quickness like she said she could. 

Cassie drags Cosmo up by his arm and sends him into the steel steps with an Irish-whip. Cassie jumps up onto the apron, jumps up onto the top rope and then spins around before springing off into a moonsault on Jason Anderson. Cassie drags Jason up and sends him into the ropes, rebound into a dropkick! The momentum sends Jason backwards into the corner. Cassie rushes Jason, leaping into a clothesline, but Jason grabs her midair by the throat and uses her momentum to throw her over the top rope down into Cosmo! Jason grabs the top rope and jumps over onto the apron, and then steps onto the middle rope and Jason's Score Moonsault down into Cassie and Cosmo! 

P-Dug: A comeback seems to have started for Jason Anderson. 

KD: As always with these matches, a lot of to and from. Give and take. 

Jason Anderson drags Cassie Wolfe up and sends her into the ring. He goes for the cover. 

ONE... KICKOUT BY WOLFE. 

Jason drags Cassie up by her wrist and sends her into the rope, on the rebound he catches her with a lifted knee that grounds her. Jason turns around, and Cosmo Goldworthy is there! Cosmo jumps up, and brings his feet down into Jason's chest, dropping him down, spiking him on the back of his head, with a Cash Cow! Cosmo drags Jason up by his head, lariat! Cosmo mounts Jason, and he starts a barrage of various punches, hooks and jabs, backhanded slaps too. Cassie gets to her feet and spins Cosmo towards her, she jumps up, putting her legs around Cosmo's head and then pulling him off his feet into a hurricanrana. Cosmo rolls through to his feet, but he gets taken off those feet with a dropkick from Cassie. Cosmo grabs the middle rope and pulls himself up, but Cassie comes up and superkicks him in the back of the head, sending him to the outside. Cassie turns and eats a superkick of her own from Jason Anderson. Cassie stumbles into the ropes, and then bounces off into a superkick on Jason Anderson. Jason stumbles backwards into the ropes and then rebounds into a superkick on Cassie Wolfe. The two fall over and the crowd goes wild. 

KD: The Japanese faithful love this type of fighting spirit!

P-Dug: It's what Strong Style was built on!

Cassie and Jason pull themselves up, and meet in the middle. Cassie throws a punch, Jason fires back, Cas... Cosmo Goldworthy rolls in from behind and smashes a chair across Cassie's back, and then slams it into Jason's face! Cosmo throws the chair down into Cassie and then heads out of the ring. Cosmo goes under the apron and brings out another chair, he slides it into the ring. Cosmo then grabs a table and he slides that into the ring. Cosmo sets the table up in the corner, and then he drags Cassie up by her hair, into a waist-lock, into a German suplex through the table in the corner! Cassie rolls out of the ring, writhing in pain and screaming as the wood and metal cut into her back. Cosmo smirks and then turns his attention to the now bloodied Jason Anderson. Cosmo stomps down into Jason's midsection and the crowd boos. Cosmo drags Jason up by his ear, and then WHAMs him down with another lariat. Cosmo drags Jason up by his other ear, and then Exploder Suplex right on top of a chair! Jason hits the chair, and something fires him up. He rolls through to his feet. Jason slaps the taste out of Cosmo's mouth, and then rakes at his eyes. Jason shoves Cosmo back into the ropes, and on the rebound lands a superkick! Cosmo is sent backwards into the ropes, and on the rebound he ducks another superkick to take-a-back and rip Jason backwards into a German suplex. Jason rolls through and drags Cosmo into a German suplex. Cosmo rolls through and drags Jason into a German suplex. Jason rolls through and rushes to hit a lifted knee into the back of Cosmo's head! They both go down next to each other. And they both raise their middle finger into the other's face. 

P-Dug: Jason Anderson and Cosmo Goldworthy giving everything they've got, and then some!

DING DING DING

Chriqui: And your winner, via pinfall ... COSMO GOLDWORTHY!!!

Pierce Patterson helps Cosmo up to his feet, Cosmo shoves him off and falls to a knee, but he pulls himself up and yells out "I DID IT, I TOLD YOU", Cosmo looks at the hard-cam and cracks a smile. He starts saying stuff, but the ring camera doesn't quite pick up what he said. Jason Anderson rolls out of the ring and looks in at Cosmo. "You didn't pin me, so what did you prove??" Jason says as he heads to the back. Cassie lays there, looking up the ceiling. Clearly disappointed and frustrated. Cassie sits up "I had that. I had that won". Cosmo shoots her a shrug and rolls out of the ring. He limps to the back using a broken piece of table as a makeshift crutch. 

KD: Cosmo Goldworthy did what he said he'd do, and he has won here tonight in his EWC Pay-Per-View debut! That's pretty huge. 

P-Dug: It is, but lets not discredit Cassie. She is factually right. She had this one won, and then Jason cost her. But sometimes that's just how these things go. 

KD: I'd certainly love to see this one ran back in any combo of a singles match. 

Camera cuts to ...

Cameras pan the ring, Chriqri ready to call the next match on the card. A cameraman gets awkwardly close to her, inches from her face before she turns and shrieks when she realizes they're right next to her. She chuckles and apologizes, but her cute nature disappears as she recognizes the man alongside the Japanese fans. He places the camera down and turns to the crowd withcm that half smirk as he reveals himself, removing a hat, a pair of sunglasses, and a much longer much faker beard. It's King Flip! And if he were anywhere else on the planet not Brawl he'd be getting jeers. Japan, however, appreciates in their own way as The Mad King enters the ring and calmly requests Chriqui's microphone. She obliges, still obviously unsettled even as Flip sits on the second rope to ease her exit. He gives her a thumbs up before lifting the microphone and turning toward the EXT. His thumb turns into a middle finger to Rampage in general. A murmur of interest floats through the arena.

The Mad King: Grizzly Duggan, this ends tonight. We tried to be cool about it, man, truly. In earnest. But the outrage of kicking Brawl's toughest superstar will not go unnoticed as the Imvasion show, and Parabellum, loom just around the corner. GRIZZLY!

Flip points toward the EXT.

The Mad King: How long does this shenanigan need to continue, hm? Chris Brock got the fucking point after ONE title decision last made. By. ME. To get the fucking picture. GRIZZLY! I will not be ignored and, truly, if this wasn't about the health and wellness of Mercenary -- and I don't think it is -- then you'd better storm your bearded fucking ass out here.

Japan does not appreciate this attitude. Flip, caught in his own emotions per usual, takes note of this and takes a deep breath.

The Mad King: Dominic Sanders not sending me the obligatory fruit basket is fine. I mean, even Tommy sent the fucking fruit basket and his boy Reidy's title wasn't even on the line. But this isn't about baskets, fruit, this is about Gravy Do-Good disrespecting The Mad King. I mean really, Grizzly? Must I cost Moxie a second television championship? Or would you prefer I gave Mercenary the Saint John Special? Hm?

Grizzly Duggan heads out from the back. A clear look of anger on his face. He stops on the stage and raises up his hand to Flip.

Duggan: You son of a bitch. You just won't stop pressing my damn buttons. But you've caught me on a good day, it's a great day. It's Scars & Stripes day baby! And so, I'll make you a deal. You want unbanned from Friday Night Rampage? You want to finish this? I'll give you a match to prove yourself. You'll face Kendrick Kross, right here, right now. And if you beat him, your ban is lifted.

Chriqri procures another microphone

KD: WHOA! Another impromptu King Flip match on Pay Per View!

P-Dug: I hope Kendrick ends him.

Chriqui: The following match is a singles contest scheduled for one fall. Should King Flip win the bout, his suspension from Friday night Rampage will be lifted! Introducing first, already in the ring--

Chanel: Oh uh uh, girl...

Japan appreciates hearing and then seeing Chanel as she walks out onto the stage. She eyeball humps Grizzly Duggan who looks a little uncomfortable with her doing so.

Chanel: Ya know... we could make us a cute lil' Half-Black Doogan... any time.

Grizzly looks a little shocked as he looks from Chanel to Flip to Japan as Chanel runs a single finger down her chest. He then removes said finger with a wag of his own. Chanel rolls her eyes.

Chanel: Boring. Anyways. HAILING. From THE LAAAAAAAAAAND!

Chanel yells this in Grizzly's face. He pretty much looks like he expects this treatment, looking over to Flip again with a 'really bro' feeling in his eyes.

Chanel: WEIGHING IN. At 220 pounds of Undisputed greatness. He is... THREE TIMES, THRICE DEFENDED ... THE BENCHMARK OF BRAWL ... put yo MOTHAFUKIN' HANDS TOGETHER for "UNTOUCHABLE" KIIING FLIP!

A small amount of appreciation is given toward The Mad King as he Miss America waves out to all of them with a smile on his face.

Chriqui: And his opponent from Los Angeles, California, & weighing in at 215 pounds... join me in truly welcoming back KENDRICK KROSS!!!

Part of the beginning instrumental plays as the lights dim with a bit of red lighting with it, The first line “Undo these chains my friend. Let me show you the rage I’ve hidden. Plays as Kendrick steps out from white smoke that had slowly started to rise. The music pauses for a few seconds before it jumps to the words. “Step inside...see the devil in I.”

Kendrick looks around slowly before he slowly begins his decent down the ramp as he holds his barbed wire bat in his right hand. He sings some of the lyrics to the chorus before stopping in the middle. He mouths “I’m not your devil anymore.” After he mouths that he continues his decent down the ramp.

He gets to the end of the ramp as that finishes and stops before a smirk crosses his face and he walks towards the steps which he uses the bat to help himself up the steps and into the ring.

KD: King Flip is the only professional wrestler in Extreme Wrestling who has been on every single Pay Per View this season. He may have experienced loss in many of them; however, after a victory over Kruel Masters alongside his newest tag team partner, the twisted jester Stitches, as Crimson Masquerade, just last Monday night on Brawl? King Flip looks to continue turning all that around tonight in this impromptu match!

P-Dug: Well, then you've got Kendrick Kross. And while he may not have gotten the job done the way he wanted against Moxie, just look at him. He looks ready and willing to take "The Mad King" -- whatever the hell that even is -- to task. I hope Kendrick Kross keeps King Flip off Friday nights if I'm being honest with you.

DING DING DING

Flip doesn't move at all. He just starts talking to Kendrick from his position in the center of the ring. Kross, who isn't into being disrespected, reacts negatively with a flurry of elbows to King's face. Chanel slowly makes her way down the ramp as Kross gets Flip to the ropes. He whips King and gets reversed, Flip now Irish whipping Kendrick across the ring. King leaps into a roundhouse kick that Kross evades with a roll. Kendrick, quickly back to his feet, catches Flipster unawares. PELE KICK! Kendrick rocks Flip's socks with a signature kick to the unsuspecting face. Duggan nods in approval as Kendrick keeps the pressure up. A few low kicks, forearm strikes, and a particularly beautiful dropkick take King to the corner. Kendrick sets Flip in the seated on top of the turnbuckle. Kendrick continues brawling Flip into servitude here as he positions himself on the second turnbuckle. He grapples the King and looks to be setting up for his super finisher. Japan appreciates as both men struggle for control from here.

KD: Japanese fans love fighting spirit, and moments into this one it's already on display. 

P-Dug: Well I'd love to see Kendrick Kross break King Flip's knee, and then I'd also love to see Chanel later on in my locker room.

KD: I think there's a clash of interest there brother. 

Flip gets a gnarly headbutt in and shoves himself and Kendrick to the canvas with an overhead neckbreaker! Japan appreciates further as Flip goes for the quick pin.

ONE!
.
.
.
TWO!!

.
.
NO!!!

Kross kicks out with authority. King smiles as he sets himself up on one knee, still just talking to Kendrick. He slaps Kross in the back of the head as they shuffle about on the canvas. It takes two more cheap and theatrical pops to the dome before Kross fires ups. He tackles King into the corner and brawls him into a seated position on the canvas. Kross shows his aggression with a knee to the throat, choking Flip against the rope until the referee gets to the count of four. He taunts Japan, who does not appreciate, before beginning to pick Flip up. Small package! No! Kendrick reverses into his own pinning predicament. No! Flip powers Kendrick's shoulders back to the canvas and shoots his hand out to the bottom rope when the referee slides into a counting position.

ONE!
.
.
.
TWO!!
.
.
.
THR-NO!!!

Kross barely powers out that time. King still smiles at him as they both pull themselves out of opposite sides of the same corner of the ring. Kross turns, a little shaky at best trying to clear the cobwebs, and almost bumps into Chanel. She waves right in front of his face as she takes one large step back. Kendrick begins trying to spit game at Chanel and gets himself shoved face first into metal guardrails when King Flip comes raging around the corner. Flip boots down Kendrick as he gets beaten into a seated position against the guardrail, exposing that slamming his head directly against metal has opened his eyebrow pretty bad. Flip drags his boot against the bleeding to add insult to injury before chuckling and rolling back into the ring. He waits for his opponent, resting up in a far corner as the referee begins the count out. Kross either lets the count get to nine or he can't get the energy to move until then; either way, Kross fires up at the very last instant, hops over a Chanel boot meant to trip him, and slides into the ring.

P-Dug: Kendrick Kross is fired up, and he might be looking to end this one.

KD: I think the end could very well be in sight!

Kross with another powerful dropkick into the corner. He gets up and whips Flip to the opposite corner, running just behind him for a vicious splash followed by a bulldog to the canvas. Kross signals to Japan and they appreciate as he ascends to the closest top turnbuckle. POST MORTEM! The massive coup de grace signature stomp from the top blasts the air painfully from the King. Kross isn't finished, however, as he taunts for Japan. They somewhat appreciate as they realize what he's setting up for. He rushes in again as King gets on all fours. TRAMP STAMP! No! Kross goes for the curb stomp but Flip yanks away. Kross stomps his foot awkwardly onto the canvas. Flip leaps into a chop block as Kross tries to shake the pain in his foot. School boy? No, Flip rolls Kross onto his back and immediately lets it go. Kendrick rolls onto his stomach and Flip cackles at his perfect set up. He ass slams Kendrick in the lower back, having jumped in the air to lock them both into position directly in the center of the ring. KNEEL! The signature camel clutch is locked in. Kross does everything to get out of it. He tries loosening King's grip to no avail. He tries to crawl but King keeps him down with another ass slam. King has Kross in the submission maneuver for nearly two minutes of struggle before Kross finally taps out.

DING DING DING

Chriqui: And your winner, via submission, and unbanned from Friday Night Rampage ... KING FLIP!!!!

King Flip lets the Rampage ref raise his arm, but then he snatches it away to raise both his arms himself. Flip smirks up the ramp, as if to smirk through the wall right at Grizzly Duggan. 

KD: King Flip picks up his win, and now he's been unbanned from Friday Night Rampage. 

P-Dug: It's a shame Kendrick Kross didn't break his back, but if these two face off I'm sure Kross would leave Flip out on his ass. 

KD: I'd certainly like to see this ran back when both have had more time to prep! And now we cut back...

Camera cuts to ...

Jason was inside of his locker room getting dress after his match when he noticed the camera with a bit of a smirk coming across his face. Diana and Dave was standing near by him wearing while he look into the camera with a bit of a smirks.

Jason Anderson: Tonight I did what I do best no matter what I always bring it inside of the ring. Comos and Cassie were two good wrestlers I face tonight. They place it on all the line and show to me why they are on the best damn brand around the company. Comos I have a feeling this fight between you and I isn’t over. You see you might gain my respect inside of that ring but it doesn’t mean I have to like you outside of the ring. You and I will continue our little story after I take care of things that is more important then you. I will be stepping inside of the ring on Brawl Vs Rampage with my mother and cousin defend the honor of my this brand but it will not only be there I be doing just that...

He smirks.

Jason Anderson: I was told by our General Manager once again I will be stepping inside of that ring at Parabellum representing Rampage with four other people. Does that make me the Captain? No I don’t see myself as one and whoever the other four want to take the role I am more then happy to let you have it. I just want to do one thing and one thing only. I need to fix the wrong that happen last Parabellum. The only way it will happen if I make sure I see eye to eye with whoever I am stepping inside of that ring because the one goal we all have is show why we Rampage is #1.

He place his hands inside of his pants pocket looking at the camera.

Jason Anderson: Yes The Love Club will be representing like crazy at Parabellum. You have my little sister Gabi wearing the blues color and is on the same side as her nemesis Scorpio on the same team. Now should I be afraid of stepping inside of the ring with a future Hall of Famer. I am not because of the fact I faced Queen Melody and Ace King inside of the ring. I know what Gabi is capable of doing inside of that ring. We worked along with each other outside of this ring so she already know I am not scare of anything. Scorpio thought I believe he want me to be shaking in my boots and will admit maybe a tiny bit of me is but what over cloud that thought that enter my head.

Jason Anderson: Is the fact I know who I am. I know what I can do inside of that ring. After he felt he done some great things I understand why he when over to Prime. To do the same thing he does best. Which is win. Which is bring the fans to their feet but he isn’t the only wrestlers inside of that ring that does that. I do that every time when I STEP INSIDE OF THE RING OF A RAMPAGE RING! You see Rampage is my home now. I left from home and they welcome me back home like the father did towards his Prodigal Son. Till the day I die... I will be waving that the flag for Rampage because they save me. So it time for me to return the favor. It doesn’t matter if I am inside of that ring with Stitches who the biggest best mind player or Rebel who has the fight of a warrior. If you believe I am wrong to think or feel like this. 11 days is Brawl vs Rampage... This is towards anyone from the other teams... come and tell me to my face.. If not... I just wait to Parabellum and just kick your ass.

He smirks as Dave grin with Diana grabbing his stuff while they walk out of the locker room.

MATCH #4
Andrea Hernandez Vs Moxie
DON'T LET ME DROP!
Referee: Toyo Yasahiro

We return to ringside where ring crew begin to work.

KD: That's right, we've just heard from Jason Anderson he's on Team Rampage at Parabellum. Joining him will also be Cosmo Goldworthy. The entire team will be announced at the end of the show in the credits package that plays. But now, we've got a major major match. Andrea Hernandez, Moxie. They are both to destroy each other for the sake of the HBO Broadcast Championship. 

P-Dug: A title I dare say may be the most prestigious in wrestling. 

Chriqui: The following match is a Don't Let Me Drop match. Whoever wins this match will be the HBO Broadcast Champion following the main event. Introducing first from Paradise Valley, Arizona & weighing in at 125 pounds... ANDREA HERNANDEZ!!!

"Ultranumb" by Blue Stahli hits the venue’s soundwaves. Andrea appears on the stage to some strong cheers from the crowd. Andrea acknowledges the crowd and completely focused on the task at hand. She gets up to the ring apron and uses the top rope to slingshot herself into it, acknowledging the crowd even further as she leans against the corner, confidently waiting for what comes next.

KD: For Andrea, it all comes down to this. It's make it or break it for her, and I think she's going to try and break Moxie's back!

P-Dug: I think of the two, she's the most hungry. 

Chriqui: And her opponent from London, England & weighing in at 202 pounds... MOXIE!!!

The Gracious Few's 'Honest Man' hits the speakers, prompting the lights to dance around the arena with an ominous red glow. Moxie emerges from behind the curtain, with Amis Shelton following closely behind. He marches to the end of the stage and glares at the capacity crowd surrounding him. Raising his fist to his jaw, Moxie lets out a roar and walks down the aisle, ignoring the paying spectators.

He slides underneath the bottom rope and rises to his feet in the middle of the ring. Moxie faces the crowd before snapping back to face the camera, emphatically raising both clenched fists high above his head before slowly descending them in stereo to both sides of his jaw.

KD: But that hunger factor may purely be because Moxie's already been to this mention twice, Moxie's already what the internet calls 'the GOAT HBO Broadcast Champion'

P-Dug: He certainly knows how to get it done, and he doesn't give a rat's ass about how hungry Andrea is that's for sure. 

DING DING DING

With the ring of the bell, the wrestling ring is slowly lifted fifteen feet into the air. Under the ring, crew work fast to set up triple stacked tables all over the place. Moxie leans back onto the ropes and cracks his back over them a few times, the ring starts to sway to & fro. Moxie smiles at this, but Andrea isn't laughing. Moxie's smile turns to a straight face, and he progresses to the center of the ring. Moxie raises up his hands, looking for a shoulder/collar tie-up. Andrea does the same, but Moxie drops his hold and paint brushes her across the face with a slap, before dragging her into a side-headlock.

KD: That's a veteran move from Moxie, he's been listening to Amis well. 

P-Dug: Stun them with a slap, and then choke the life out of them with a headlock. It's good work. 

Andrea punches Moxie in his stomach, but Moxie doesn't drop the side-headlock. Instead he rushes forward and drops Andrea down into a running bulldog. Andrea gets up to her feet, rubbing her jaw. Moxie grabs her hand and sends her into the corner with an Irish-whip. Moxie rushes and catches Andrea with a European Uppercut into the corner. Moxie drags Andrea out by her hair, grabs on a waist-lock and then rips Andrea backwards into a German suplex. Andrea rolls through to her feet, but gets taken right off them as Moxie blasts her with a lariat. 

P-Dug: So far this match is entirely Moxie, he's relentless!

KD: Andrea needs to wake up and get into this one!

Andrea gets up to her feet, Moxie jumps into an enziuguri, Andrea ducks the kick and rips him backwards into a German suplex of her own. Moxie rolls through, and pulls Andrea into another German, but Andrea lands it on her feet! Andrea rushes to the now seated Moxie, and hits a busaiku knee right into the back of his head. Andrea heads to the ropes, steps up onto the second one and then springs off them into a moonsault on Moxie. Andrea jumps up to her feet, and then spins around and jumps into a standing moonsault on Moxie. Andrea drags Moxie up going for an Irish-whip, but Moxie grabs her hand and POP, pulls the index and middle fingers away from each other unnaturally, before ripping Andrea into a giant short-arm lariat that almost takes her head off. Moxie drops down into the corner, holding his rips and catching his breath. 

KD: Andrea did some damage to Moxie, his ribs are clearly on fire from those moonsaults. But Moxie was still able to keep the advantage in this one. 

P-Dug: Luckily for Andrea, I don't think dislocated fingers will hinder her moveset much, but if she does more work to Moxie's ribs, she's taken out a lot of his offense. 

Andrea sits up, in pain looking at her dislocated fingers. Andrea pops her middle finger back in, her face goes white as snow from pain. Moxie rushes in, and goes for a European uppercut. Andrea rolls out of the way, and Moxie grabs his ribs as hitting nothing jars them. Moxie gets to his feet, from behind him Andrea jumps up and wraps her legs around his head, and then pulls him backwards to spike him on the top of his head with a poisonrana! The momentum rolls Moxie off his head to his feet, backwards into the ropes where he lands. Andrea advances and starts to wail on Moxie with forearm strikes. The crowd is going nuts! Andrea grabs Moxie's wrist and sends him into the ropes, on the rebound she flips him up and over and down into her signature Tilt-o-whirl backbreaker, The Phoenix Backbreaker! Moxie grabs at his back, grabs at his rips, clearly in a ton of pain. Andrea drags him up by his hair and sends him into the ropes. Moxie reaches into his pants as he runs, on the rebound Andrea goes for a float over DDT, but Moxie shrugs her off and then CLOCKS her right in the jaw with a brass knuckle covered right hook! That's what he was getting out of his tights! Andrea falls like a sack of puppies, and she might be out!

P-Dug: Good ol knuckle dusters. This is a no DQ match, so that's entirely legal, and entirely smart. 

KD: And may have just secured the win for Moxie, I don't know if ever Andrea's fighting spirit can get out of that one. 

Moxie drags Andrea up by her hair into a pumphandle position, he then lifts that and drops Andrea into a reverse STO, right on her face. Moxie's Endgame! Moxie rolls Andrea off her face onto her back, and gives her a slap on the cheek before dragging her back up by her hair to the corner. Moxie grabs on a side-headlock, and then he backs up onto the second rope, then the third rope. Moxie drags Andrea up into a vertical suplex hold, and then flings her forward out of the ring! Andrea uses her remaining energy to fight this, try and survive, and she is able to get thrown onto the apron, it still hurts, but she's still in this one! Andrea drags herself to her feet on the apron, using the ropes to help. Moxie jumps down into the ring, he hits the opposite ropes and comes flying in and FUCKING SPEAR!!! Moxie jumps through the ropes, into a spear on Andrea sending them both crashing down into the triple stacked tables below! Dear God!  

DING DING DING

Chriqui: And your winner, uh... I don't really know!

Ring crew rush over to the bodies, and start to throw away the debris of 9 broken tables to get Andrea and Moxie out. Both wrestlers are bloodied, both are motionless. Toyo Yasahiro watches something on a monitor. It's a slow-mo look at the fall. They fell about five feet, with Andrea falling first, but after about six feet Andrea grabs Moxie close into a side-headlock, and then positions his head beneath her, and DROPS HIM WITH A DDT! The top of Moxie's head just barely breaks the plane of the first table before Andrea's body!

Chriqui: And your winner, and new to be crowned HBO Broadcast Champion, ANDREA HERNANDEZ!!!

KD: Some incredible quick thinking there from Andrea, and now she's the HBO Broadcast Champion. Hungry breeds results and Andrea got what she needed her tonight. 

P-Dug: But if you look at these two, Andrea is more bloodied, Andrea has a dislocated finger, Andrea is more broken. She may have won the match, but Moxie won the war. And if these two have a rematch, I have a feeling we could see Moxie get that 3x HBO marked next to his name. 

KD: That's quite possible! I definitely want to see this ran back. Don't go anywhere folks, we've got a quick word from Master Detectives Archives: RAIN CODE, now playable on the Nintendo Switch, who have sponsored this entire tournament. 

The camera cuts up into the crowd, amongst the many fans, somewhere on the second level of the Nissan Stadium. Nondescript Rampage-iacs cheer loudly for their ho-hum favorite wrestlers as the camera focuses in on Alexander Umbra and Cilan Humphries walking down the staircase, looking at their tickets.

CILAN: These were the best tickets they had left?

ALEXANDER UMBRA: Be happy we even found them. The ticket agent said they were sold out and that dude in the trench coat was nice enough to sell me his.

CILAN: How are you going to see anything? Hell, we’ve missed most of the show already. All that is left is the Main Event.

ALEXANDER UMBRA: Yes, but what a hell of a Main Event is going to be. All that carnage! All that destruction! Daydream and I are very excited! Plus whomever is standing in the end, gets all that pretty gold to wear around.

CILAN: Who knows, keep it up and you might have a title of your own one day.

ALEXANDER UMBRA: I doubt that, Cilan. You see, my mind isn’t nice enough to me to give me a title…even if this little world is some sort of self-delusional construct, keeping me imprisoned like a rat in a cage. Knowing how my mind works, and I think I do, it will present me with the opportunity and RIP it out from under me at the last second.

CILAN: Like with Jamie?

Alexander stops walking as the half-smirk on his face fades away and his gaze almost looks as if is looking out past the ticket.

ALEXANDER UMBRA: Jamie…Doc…I asked you not to mention her.

CILAN: But Alex, sooner or later you’re going to have to talk about her.

ALEXANDER UMBRA: Doc…I…I can’t. I...don’t want…

Almost as if he snaps back, the far away gaze fades as the smile appears on Alexander’s face again.

ALEXANDER UMBRA: Oh look, the man in the trench coat came to help us to our seats!

We cut to the staircase in front of them and standing there is a man in a trench coat and a pair of sunglasses. He removes the sunglasses to reveal a large bruise.

CILAN: You bought the tickets from HIM? ALEX, THAT’S THE GUARD YOU HIT EARLIER!!!

The guard throws off the trench coat to reveal his large form as he starts running up the stairs towards them.

ALEXANDER UMBRA: HOLY SHIT! HE MR. SMITH-ED ME AND TOOK OVER THAT GUYS BODY! RUN!!!

Alexander and Cilan turn and take off up the stairs, the guy in the coat quickly following after them.

MAIN EVENT | MATCH #5


The Mercenary Vs Vin Havoc Vs Chris Page (C) Vs Lavender (C)
BOUT OF RAGING TURMOIL!
Referee: Toyo Yasahiro

The steel structure is lowered down around the double rings, and ring crew are starting to fill it up with weapons. There's tables, tables with barbed wire, tables with light-tubes stacked on top. There's chairs, there's a mysterious bag and there is kendo sticks. 

KD: This is what we've been waiting for. This is it. This is the B.O.R.T Final. This is for all the marbles. 

P-Dug: Whoever wins here, they walk out B.O.R.T III Winner, US Champion, HBO Champion and face the Undisputed Champion at UNCENSORED!

Chriqui: The following match is a Bout Of Raging Turmoil. It is the first of its kind, and it will maim and destroy all who cross it. It's also the B.O.R.T III Finals. Introducing first from hotel rooms across the world & weighing in at 365 pounds... THE MERCENARY!!!

The Mercenary

Black Label Society's Fire It Up starts to play as Mercenary rolls out onto the top of the stage astride his custom Harley Davidson. Pausing he salutes the fans with a raised fist before taking off his signature shades and tossing them out to a lucky fan.

Revving the engine while holding the brake Mercenary burns out before rolling down the ramp in a cloud of smoke. Parking the bike at ringside he stomps up the steps, steps through the door and again salutes the audience before throwing some shadow punches and preparing for a fight.

KD: Quite the entrance from The Mercenary. He looks all business heading into this one. 

P-Dug: That is a man on a mission. 

The crowd buzzes with barely contained energy as the Extreme Tron displays… a countdown…?

KD: What could this be?

And then…

The crowd ERUPTS as Vin Havoc, dressed in all-white and wearing a classic boxing robe, comes storming out of the entranceway, the legend Nakashima Takashi not too far behind, accompanying him to the ring!

Chriqui: Ladies and gentlemen, this is your Scars & Stripes MAIN EVENT and it is the FINALS of the third annual Best of Rampage Tournament for both the United States Championship AND the HBO Broadcast Championship, and it will be contested as a BOUT OF RAGING TURMOIL! The only way to win will be to accumulate as many falls as possible within the sixty minute time limit. Introducing first, from Brooklyn, New York, and weighing in at 240 pounds... He is the WILD THING, VIN FUCKING HAVOC!!!

As Vin reaches the cage, he stops and does a silent prayer, holding the cross in hanging from his neck. Takashi pulls a metal object out of his pocket and hands it off to Vin just before he enters the ring. As he steps into the cage, Vin holds the metal FORK up high and shouts out the Havocmaniacs in the audience as he’s serenaded by the Japanese crowd’s best English:

IT'S THE FINAL COUNTDOWN!!!

KD: What an entrance from Vin Havoc! I've got goose bumps!

P-Dug: This moment, he knows what it means and he's ready to do everything in his power to make it a reality.

Chriqui: And their opponent from Zzyzx, California & weighing in at 227 pounds, he is the HBO Broadcast Champion... CHRIS PAGE!!!

"Stepped On" by Hurricane Chris begins to blare over the speakers throughout the arena. The crowd bursts into boos as "The Elite" Chris Page steps out onto the stage. Page wears his signature yellow and red tights while Sanders is in a sharp navy blue suit. Chris Page looks around in disgust at the crowd who, clearly, does not appreciate greatness. Page chuckles and then begins to make his way down the ramp.

Page enters through the door and stands up to his feet. Page puts his arms out to the side and plays to the booing crowd. He brushes them off and walks over to the cage wall, and yells something at a fan.

KD: Chris Page, he ends Moxie's reign to get that HBO Broadcast Championship, and now he's looking to end Lavender's reign too.

P-Dug: And between his raw ability, and Dominic Sander's coaching. I think he might take it!

Chriqui: And their opponent from Seattle, Washington & weighing in at 132 pounds, she is the United States Champion... LAVENDER!!!

The lights go out as 'Challenge' by Cellar Darling begins to play. The lights flash in time to the intro until the first vocals hit. As the vocals hit smoke billows from behind the curtains and a spotlight shines down upon the center of the stage. The lights come back on shortly afterward and out walks Lavender. She looks out across the crowd as the crowd erupts into cheer. A smile creeps across her face as she embraces their warm welcome.

Lavender begins to make her way down to the ring with a calm and cheerful demeanor. As Lavender reaches the bottom of the ramp she walks over to the steel steps, walks up the steel stairs, and enters the ring through the door. Lavender then climbs the nearest turnbuckle and holds her arms up high in the air to accept the warm adulation from the crowd. She grabs the cage wall and gives it a shake, see how sturdy it is. Lavender steps down from the turnbuckle and waits for the match to commence.

KD: Lavender may be the new Queen Of Friday Night Rampage. She's been high unstoppable this year. And now she might win her second B.O.R.T, the first to win back to back tournaments. 

P-Dug: If anyone can do it, it's definitely this woman right here. She's the smallest person in this match, but arguably has the most fight. 

DING DING DING

With the sound of the bell, all four competitors look around at the hellacious structure they find themselves in. Vin Havoc grabs two light-tubes and then makes his way over to Lavender, who grabs two herself. They smirk at each other, and then Vin swings wildly, crashing the tube into Lavenders head. Lavender returns fire and crashes a tube against Vin's chest. Vin stumbles back, Lavender crashes her second one against his throat. Vin falls to a knee, Lavender snatches the second tube from his hand and smashes it down over his head. Vin's bleeding, Lavender's bleeding. We are only a minute into this one!!! Vin jumps to his feet and wraps a meaty hand around Lavender's throat, Vin pushes Lavender backwards, grabs a light-tube and then crashes it against the side of Lavender's head, swinging like a damn baseball bat! Vin lunges at Lavender and stabs her in the shoulder with the broken glass. Lavender screams out and stomps down on Vin's leg, locking his knee and stumbling him into a seated position. Lavender knees Vin between his eyes, and then she brings another tube down on his face. Vin yells out as glass gets into his eyes, as blood gets into his eyes. He rolls onto his stomach, Lavender stomps down on the back of his head, sending his face into more glass. Lavender drags Vin up to his knees, and then hits a reverse DDT, sending the back of his head into more glass. Lavender drags Vin back up, and goes for another, but Vin pulls her up onto his shoulder and drops her with a powerslam through the table, sending them both through five more light-tubes! On the other side of the ring, Mercenary and Chris Page lock-up in a shoulder/collar tie-up. Mercenary brings Chris into a side-headlock and starts to pound on his face with punches. Vin slips the hold and grabs a waist-lock, ripping Merc backwards into a German suplex. Merc rolls to his feet and sends a left jab into Chris Page's mouth, Page returns fire with a two piece combo. Page and Merc start laying in haymakers! Page stomps down into Merc's foot, with enough force Merc may have a broken toe! Merc stumbles back, Page kicks him in the stomach and sends him backwards into the west wall. EXPLOSION! Merc flies about three feet away from the wall, his back charred and bloody. Chris Page rolls him onto his back, and cover!

KD: Chris Page has started this one off HOT. Scoring three pinfalls in ten minutes!

P-Dug: He's got this match won, if he can just make sure no one is pinned or submitted for fifty minutes!

FIFTY MINUTES REMAIN. With the sound of the 50 minute buzzer, Chris Page grabs a light-tube from a different table and smashes it against the back of Vin Havoc's head. Page then drags Vin up by his head about five inches off the ground and starts to smash Vin's face down into the glass over and over. Once, twice, three times, four, no five, SIX TIMES! Chris Page rolls Vin over onto his back and then stomps down into his face. Vin Havoc grabs some barbed wire off the canvas and starts to wrap it around Vin's head, two loops, with each loop going into Vin's mouth on the wrap! Chris Page starts to twist and pull on the wire, slicing into Vin's mouth, into his cheeks, into the back of his head, into his ears. Chris Page gives a sadistic smile. Vin Havoc grabs Chris Page and pulls him in close, into a a hug. Vin pulls both men up and then RUSHES into the east wall with a bear-hug, sending both himself and Chris Page into an explosion! Both men fly away from the wall, charred and bloodied. While this was happening, Lavender crawled over to Merc and pulled herself up with the aid of a chair. Lavender drags Merc up and gives him a slap to jolt him into reality. Merc returns the favor with a slap. Lavender slap, Merc slap, Lavender slap, Merc slap. Mercenary grabs Lavender's torso and lifts her up and down into a spinebuster. Mercenary grabs Lavender's hand and pulls her up for a short-arm lariat, but Lavender catches Mercenary's body and lifts him up and down with a backbody drop! Merc hits the canvas hard but gets up to his feet. Merc grabs Lavender into a side-headlock and pulls her up and down into a brainbuster suplex. Lavender rolls her her stomach, slaps the canvas and does the same to Merc! They both roll up to their feet, the surge of energy. Merc punches Lavender in the mouth, Lavender uses the momentum to spin around into a back-fist. Merc swings, Lavender ducks and kicks Merc's knee. Merc stumbles back, Lavender jumps up and pulls his head down into a DDT. Merc shifts his weight and rolls up out of the DDT and spins around lift Lavender up and down into a pumphandle slam. Merc stumbles backwards. Lavender jumps to her feet and yells at the top of her lunges in defiance. She rushes at Merc, and he scoops her up and then spins with her momentum into a Deadpool Drop Black Hole Slam right into the west wall! There's no explosion this time, but Lavender is electrocuted!!! She falls forward onto her face and Mercenary covers!

P-Dug: Mercenary has joined Chris Page on the board. This match has been some of the most brutal twenty minutes I have ever seen. 

KD: And there's still forty to go!!!

FORTY MINUTES REMAINING. Mercenary grabs two closed tables off the ground, and he sets them up, one in front of the other. Mercenary lights the one to the north on fire with the help of some lighter fluid and a lighter duct taped to it, kind of like his Andrea match, and the other is already wrapped in a delightful layer of sickening barbed wire. Mercenary turns his attention to Lavender, but Lavender hits a drop-toe hold that sends Merc's face right into the west-wall. Merc is electrocuted! Merc stumbles back and Lavender grabs his legs and pulls him into a flash pin, with the back of Merc's head hitting a stray light-tube.

POINTS: MERCENARY 1, VIN HAVOC 0, CHRIS PAGE 3, LAVENDER 1

Vin Havoc pushes himself up to his knees, and then he grabs a broken light-tube and throws it at Chris Page's head. Vin crawls towards something shiny on the ground, its the fork! Vin grabs the fork and pulls himself up and then he limps over to Chris Page. Vin drags Chris up to his knees, and jabs the fork down into his forehead. Vin Havoc really twists the fork, really turns it. Vin then starts to stop Page in the head, the fork doesn't stab deep, but blood is pouring down info Page's face and mouth. Vin licks Page's forehead, and then the sick fuck bites it! Chris Page yells out in pain, Vin drags Page up and then he knees him in the forehead and then pulls him straight up to start headbutting Chris Page. Vin hits one, two, three headbutts! Page's blood is just pouring! Vin sweeps Page's leg and goes for a cover.

POINTS: MERCENARY 1, VIN HAVOC 1, CHRIS PAGE 3, LAVENDER 1

KD: Mercenary, Vin Havoc and Lavender are all on the board, but Vin Havoc is still currently the winner of this match if they don't get a move on!

P-Dug: With thirty minutes left in this one, and how much damage that fork job did. Chris Page's lead may be slipping away!

THIRTY MINUTES REMAINING. Vin Havoc pulls himself up and stumbles over to Mercenary. Vin drags Merc up and shoves him backwards into the cage. The pain wakes Merc back up and Merc comes into Vin and swings hard with a haymaker. Vin takes it right on the mouth and smiles through blood as he fires one back. Merc punches the holy hell out of Vin and Vin stumbles back, looking like he might fall. Vin straightens out and yells in Merc's face. Merc pops him on the nose, Vin ignores it and throws a chop into Merc's chest. Merc grabs Vin's head and pulls him forward into some raised knee strikes. Merc drops the hold and then punches Vin in the ear, Vin falls to a knee. Merc advances, Vin jumps up and drags Merc up and down on the back of his head with an uranage. Vin wraps both hands around Merc's throat and drags him up into a headbutt, followed by a chop to the throat, followed by a chop to the chest. Merc lunges into a lariat that knocks Vin Havoc back. Vin Havoc advances and Merc hoists him up and down with an Alabama slam. Merc grabs Vin by the wrist and rips him up onto his feet, and then smashes him out of existence with an insane lariat. Mercenary drags Vin up by his head, and then spins around into a rolling elbow! The elbow spins Vin around and lands him on his knees. Merc turns his back to Vin, back facing back, and then drags Vin up by his shoulders into the air. Merc takes a few steps, sees his target and then YEETs Vin Havoc forward into the two tables! Vin's going To Hell The Hard Way! Merc grabs Vin's leg and drags him out of the wreckage, and then he covers.

While this is happening, Lavender has made her way over to Chris Page and she picks up a light-tube to smash it down on the back of his head. Lavender drags Page up and spikes him with a DDT. Lavender drags Page up, looking for another but Page hoists her up and down into a spinebuster. Page mounts Lavender and starts to punch down, but Lavender throws some glass shards into his eyes. Chris Page stumbles backwards into a corner post. Lavender gets to her feet and rushes, hitting Page with a corner clothesline. Lavender drags Page out by his ear, into a side-headlock into a vertical suplex brainbuster right into some glass. Lavender gets to her feet, and signals it. She drags Page up and goes for her spineb... Page headbutts Lavender and then takes-a-back. Chris Page grabs a hold of Lavender and then T-Bone Suplexes her right into the south wall, EXPLOSION! Lavender went to Funky Town! Chris Page drags Lavender away from the walls, but Mercenary comes up from behind and kicks him in the groin. "That's for Moxie!" Merc yells before pulling Chris down into a flash-pin.

P-Dug: With just twenty minutes left in this one, Mercenary has taken the lead at four points. We might be looking at our next United States Champion.

KD: So much can happen in the next twenty minutes, I might puke from anxiety! 

TWENTY MINUTES REMANING. Mercenary pulls himself up and looks at Chris Page and Lavender who are both out of it, but a piece of table hits him in the back of his head. Mercenary turns around to find a very very bloody Vin Havoc, whose white attire is completely red now, standing on his feet and flipping Merc off. Mercenary laughs and then rushes into Page. Merc lands a big boot, Chris Page lands a big chop. Merc throws a punch, Vin lands a chop and then a lariat. Merc throws a lariat. Vin throws a lariat. They both throw a lariat at the same time and stumble back. Merc goes for the boot, Vin snatches him up and throws him down with a sit-out powerbomb! Cover!

Vin Havoc flips Merc away from him, and then he gets up to his feet. Vin grabs a bag and empties it out, thousands of thumbtacks rain onto the canvas. Vin looks down, and then smiles at Merc, you can see fear wash over the usual stoic man's eyes. Vin grabs Merc's leg and drags him towards him, and then Vin tries to smash Merc's face down into the tacks. Vin's laughing out like a maniac, and Merc's fighting for his life.. Merc manages to push up and grab Vin into a side-headlock. Merc drops down with a headlock driver and smashes the top of Vin's head down into the tacks! Lavender comes from up from behind and smashes a chair into the back of Merc's head. Lavender covers Vin!

Chris Page comes up from behind Lavender, and he rips her backwards into another Funky Town T-Bone Suplex! Lavender hits the canvas hard, but rolls up through bloody glass and yells out in commanding defiance before smashing her forearm into the side of Page's jaw. Page stumbles back but then fires his own forearm into Lavender and now the two are just throwing bombs at each other! Forearm after forearm, both refusing to give an inch, refusing to sell the pain they feel, as they go for what feels like three full minutes of forearms!

FIGHT FOREVER! FIGHT FOREVER! FIGHT FOREVER!

KD: I wish this match could go on forever! But there's just ten minutes left in this one!

P-Dug: This is going to kill me!

Vin Havoc pulls himself up out of the thumbtacks and rushes into Lavender and Chris Page with a double lariat. Chris Page falls flat, and Lavender goes back about three feet. Mercenary spins Vin Havoc around and punches him in the mouth, stumbling Vin. Page sits up to his knees and punches Mercenary in the dick. Merc stumbles backwards holding himself. Lavender comes flying in and dropkicks Chris Page in the side of his head. Vin Havoc comes up from the side of Mercenary and slams into him with a lariat, taking Merc off his feet. Lavender comes flying into Vin Havoc with her own mighty lariat that backs the bigger man up. Chris Page grabs Lavender and goes for one more Funky Town, but this time she spins around mid-air and pulls Page down into a spike-DDT. Vin Havoc comes up from behind and wraps his chain from earlier around Lavender's throat. Vin pulls Lavender close and strangles the life out of her with the chain. Vin backs up into the corner, drags Lavender into him, up and DOWN into a piledriver from the top of the post. Super Havoc Driver! Cover!

Page falls down to his knees. Vin picks up the third tube and points it at Page's head. Page raises up both his middle fingers and yells "GO FUCK YOURSELF", Vin swings the light-tube like a baseball bat and shatters the entire thing over Chris Page's head. Page falls numb, knocked out. Vin stomps down on his throat for a cover.

Mercenary crawls over to the south wall and uses a kendo stick to stand. Vin Havoc rushes without thinking, slamming his body into Mercenary with a spear, they both explode into the south wall and the combined weight plus the explosion just completely destroys the wall and sends both men falling outside to the padded concrete flooring. Both men are down, both men on their backs, both men knocked out. But Merc's hand is on Vin, and Vin's arm is on Merc. One ref sees one, one ref sees the other. They both count!

DING DING DING

Chriqui: And your winner, once again I have no fucking idea!!!

POINTS: MERCENARY 5, VIN HAVOC 5, CHRIS PAGE 3, LAVENDER 3

Everyone looks up in confusion at the scoreboard. Mercenary & Vin have the same amount of points for first place, and Chris Page & Lavender have the same amount of points for second place. 

KD: What does this mean? I didn't expect this to happen??

P-Dug: What the fuck??

Grizzly Duggan comes walking out from backstage. He looks furious.

Duggan: Can you sons of bitches stop making so many logistical nightmares for me! Fuck. 

Duggan looks at the carnage. And shakes his head thinking. The broken cage starts to be raised up from around the ring. Medical staff check on all four wrestlers and use smelling salts to bring them back. 

Duggan: Here's what is going to happen. For the first time in the EWC since March 2018 with Dominic Sanders and Ruthann Hunter, we will have CO CHAMPIONS! Mercenary, Vin Havoc. Since neither of you were champion heading into this match, neither of you have champions advantage. And therefore, you are BOTH EWC United States Champion, and you will both participate in Insanity Cage. At Rampage Meltdown In Mexico II, you two will face each other in a match where a draw is IMPOSSIBLE, and one will be crowned the sole EWC United States Champion. Whoever wins that match, will also be crowned the B.O.R.T III winner and get an Undisputed Championship Match at EWC UNCENSORED In October! At EWC Rumble following Meltdown, whoever is champion will face either Chris Page or Lavender, in a singles match. At UNCENSORED there will be a #1 contenders match, and then at WrestleFest, it will be Champion Vs #1 Contender Vs Chris Page or Lavender, whichever didn't get the Rumble Match. And that's how we're going to handle this!

The crowd lets out a big cheer.

KD: CO CHAMPIONS? SEVERAL TITLE MATCHES SET? OH MY GOD!

P-Dug: Wow, I don't think anyone expected that at all heading into this one! This is crazy!

Back in the ring, Chris Page pulls himself up and glares out at Vin Havoc and Mercenary with anger in his eyes. He looks around at the destruction before them, and he smiles knowing he did this. He smiles knowing the HBO Broadcast Championship won't be his last title in the EWC. He is aided to the back, that shit-eating grin not leaving his face for a second. Lavender pushes the medical staff away from her and falls to her knees. She can't believe it. Lavender looks over at the US Championship, and then clenches some glass into a balled up fist. She seems to make a promise under her breath as she is then aided to the back. Vin Havoc is handed the HBO Broadcast Championship and the EWC United States Championship. He holds them both in the air, and he screams out "I FUCKING DID IT MA! I FUCKING DID IT!" Vin Havoc falls to his knees, he kisses both belts, tears swell up in his eyes. Toyo gently takes both belts from Vin who just sits there on his knees, lost in thought. Toyo takes them over to Mercenary. Mercenary's best friend Jay Steele has jumped the barricade and used a bottle of water to wash the blood from Merc's face. Merc grabs both belts and then limps over to his family. Merc gives his brother a high-five, Merc drapes the US Championship over his nephews shoulder. Merc raises up his nephew with title in one arm, and HBO Broadcast Championship with the other arm and poses for a picture with his family. The EWC Outlaw has finally became a champion. Vin Havoc stumbles over to Merc's family and claps a hand on Merc's back. Vin grabs the beer from Merc's brother's hand and chugs it. "Let's get going huh, co-champ", Vin's words have both respect and venom dripping from them. Merc lowers his nephew, and the two aid each other to the back as Scars & Stripes fades to black...
