 An Xcellent OpeningThe exceptionally loud sounds of “Stand Your Ground” by CAVO are playing throughout the PA system, with the fans in attendance challenged to match the same level of noise. They are certainly a very close second, as the liveliness of their cheers are evident. The noise levels for Visionaries of Wrestling seem to rise with each event. The appreciation for the work put into making it the most entertaining Wrestling company around is obvious.
Axel Reid: Hello and welcome ladies and gentlemen to our final Breakthrough edition before Heatstroke 2015! I'm Axel Reid alongside my controversial yet ravishing broadcast partner, Ruby Parvati!
Ruby Parvati: Aw shucks! But you can't get in my pants that easy, Axel! What a show we have tonight, Seth Iser versus Valquist unfortunately will not be happening due to Seth Iser being unable to make it tonight but that'll be all solved since our NEW main event and the REAL main event is between World Visionary Champion, Ziu Zhong and-
“CHECK IT!”
Ruby Parvati: THE XCELLENT CHAMPION! This is how you kick off a show!
The familiar opening chords to the Beastie Boys’ “Fight For Your Right (To Party)“ blast over the loudspeaker, as the camera circles the Steve Yzerman Arena to a chorus of booing fans. They know it can only mean one thing: #TeamXcellent and their ever-growing entourage. Out of the curtain steps VoW’s Xcellent Champion, the radical Ryder Blade, accompanied by Bambi.
Behind them walks the Phenomenal one himself, Steve Herring, wearing his white Phenom t-shirt, the back of which is scrawled in black sharpie: #CONSPIRACYVICTIM. They’re all accompanied by Herring’s attorney and business partner, Francis Ferrari, and the same two mysterious men in masks from last week.
Axel Reid: The fans are really letting this rag-tag bunch have it.
Ruby Parvati: They can moan all they want. The fact is, you’re looking at the reigning Xcellent Champion, and the team that took down Stacy Jones, Reya Serra and Katie Moicelle last week.
Axel Reid: Oh, please. That’s the Xcel Championship, Ruby. I respect that belt, and that joker Blade just uses it as another prop.
Ruby Parvati: Real champions make their mark, Axel!
As the group approaches the ring, Ryder sits on the second rope and lowers it. The small, chubby, sweaty man known as Francis Ferrari tries to walk in first. Steve smacks him on the back of the head, and motions as Bambi steps through. The men then all enter, with Ryder raising his belt high in the air and Steve pointing to his back, as the boo birds only get louder.
Axel Reid: We’ve heard these two going on about some sort of conspiracy on social media, and it looks like Herring is now gesturing for a microphone to address the crowd.
Steve Herring: You know, in this world-- [Steve pauses as the boos intensify.] I can wait.
The crowd’s ire grows to a fever pitch before briefly dying down.
Steve Herring: As I was saying: In this world, there is justice, and there is injustice. Ryder Blade winning the Xcellent Championship from Stacy Jones, that was justice. Team Xcellent coming out victorious in last week’s main event-- Justice.
The two men nod at each other in agreement, then look out to the crowd, which does not share their opinion.
Steve Herring: But, as every Yin has a Yang, there has been a substantial amount of injustice lately. Take, for example, our stunning win last week. First, some midcard match featuring Valium or Valerie or whoever, was hyped as some sort of meeting of the superpowers. By the time Team Xcellent took to the ring, the VoW brass was cutting to commercial in the middle of an Xcellent Beatdown. By the way, fans, if you want to livetweet this right now, the hashtag #XcellentBeatdown works. That’s Xcellent, with an X.
The fans loudly pan Steve’s idea, clearly not in a hashtagging mood.
Steve Herring: Tonight, ladies and gentlemen of Ontario, there are even more shenanigans at play. You see, you are looking at two Xcellent Conspiracy Victims.
Steve hands the mic over to Ryder Blade, who has to wait as the crowd lets them know what they think of him. Surprisingly, the Xcellent Champion does not seem in any way put out by the negative reaction, instead nodding in seeming agreement with it.
Axel Reid: Seems Blade knows exactly why he's getting this reaction...
After a moment, however, the announcer's words are proven wrong, as Ryder takes to the mic:
Ryder Blade: That's right! That's right! These fans here in the Xcellent Arena in Xcellent Ontario, Canada, know what's up!
Axel Reid: That's not the name of the arena!!
Ruby Parvati: Would you let the kid speak? Geez!
And speak Ryder does, raising his voice over the growing chorus of boos:
Ryder Blade: The fans here at the Xcellent Arena know that last week, VoW robbed the Xcellent fans at home of an Xcellent Main Event by going to commercial in the middle of it! And the commercial wasn't even for Sprintex, the only energy drink that's Xcellent Champion Approved!
Ryder motions to one of the masked men, who hands him a Sprintex shake. The Xcellent Champion holds the drink up to the booing crowd before chugging it.
Axel Reid: I wasn't aware we'd cut to commercial...
Ruby Parvati: Would you knock it off already?
His thirst quenched – as well as Bambi's, with Herring politely declining – the Xcellent Champion continues:
Ryder Blade: That is totally not righteous. Team Xcellent totally earned their spot in the Main Event. Team Xcellent have proven themselves to be the new face of VoW, and the choice of a new generation!
More boos follow the usage of the outdated slogan, which Ryder shakes off as he continues:
Ryder Blade: But even though there are no other dudes on the roster as Xcellent as the Xcellent Champion and his buddy Stevo...VoW doesn't give them the respect they deserve. No, VoW are trying to KEEP TEAM XCELLENT DOWN!
Herring points at the inscription on the back of his shirt once more, as the arena nearly becomes unglued with disapproval for the two opportunists.
Axel Reid: What a load of tripe!
Ruby Parvati: I think they're making perfect sense...
Ryder Blade: That's right. Instead of featuring their most Xcellent team, VoW prefers to push a bunch of totally square old dudes....
Here, Herring picks up where his friend left off, and begins to list the names of said 'square old dudes':
Steve Herring: ...y'know, like Old Man Valium, Seth 'I-Sure-Am-Old', CasanOLDa English, CamerOLD BehrinGERIATRIC...those guys.
The fans intensify their boos once again, not about to stand for Herring insulting some of their favourites. Once again, however, Ryder spins the heat in their favour, as he once again picks up the mic:
Ryder Blade: This Xcellent crowd agrees with you, Stevo!
The two men share a fist-bump before Ryder resumes:
Ryder Blade: That's right. Those guys. And if the Xcellent Champion had to guess, the Xcellent Champion would say it's because the old dudes don't make waves. They just do whatever they're told. They don't fight the power. They don't fight for their right to par-tay. They don't STICK IT TO THE MAN, MAAAAAN!
Axel Reid: Oh, please!
Ruby Parvati: What?! Ryder is spreading a positive message! He's encouraging self-expression and individuality and independent thought! If you don't see that, Axel, you're part of the problem!
Axel Reid: Then it appears all these fans are part of the problem, too. They don't seem to get it either!
In fact, the boos for Team Xcellent have now reached fever pitch, as Ryder once again passes the mic to his new best friend, who wants to say a few more words.
Steve Herring: So this week, instead of giving Team Xcellent its due, and putting us once again in the main event, I got bumped back down to the front of the card. And the Xcellent Champion himself, the dude that each and every one of you look up to--
Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Steve Herring: --he wasn’t even given the true respect he deserved. That’s right, despite being a champion, fighting anotherchampion, it took a freak accident to even get him into the main event tonight. It’s obvious, even to each and every one of you dunskys, that Team Xcellent is being held back. But tonight, we’re here to say we will not stand for it. This oppression from the brass here at VoW will not stand, and the champ and I are going to show the entire world that there is no stopping pure XCELLENCE!
Herring drops the mic as the Beastie Boys play once again. The group lifts their hands in the air, basking in the crowd’s (negative) reaction.
Axel Reid: You’ve got to be kidding me with these guys. As if that’s evidence of some kind of conspiracy. What a joke!
Ruby Parvati: Is it, Axel? Or are you just in on the scheme?! The VoW’s own Illuminati is obviously trying to throw a monkey wrench into the rapid ascension of Team Xcellent!
Axel Reid: Oh, would you give it a rest! There’s no scheme, no plot to keep these two imbeciles down. They think the world owe them something, they think VoW owes them something, but the reality is, they still need to earn it!

Quest for The Case Qualifying Match
Sophia Halter vs Zakk Morris
Axel Reid: Anyway... now that Team uh 'Xcellent' is on their way out of the ring... we can get down to business. Particularly the first match of the night...Ruby Parvati: And perhaps a strong start right off the bat. They may be newer talents to VoW, but I've heard good things about both superstars. Well, particularly the fine piece of man-meat...Axel Reid: ...you think that about ALL men.Ruby Parvati: Only those with the proper personality to go along with the chiseled jaw.Axel Reid: You mean arrogant assholes.Ruby Parvati: Actually, I thought it was you who had an interest in 'assholes'...Axel Reid: Was... was that a gay joke? Seriously Ruby? Ruby Parvati: ....oh look, Jerry is prepared to announce our competitors!Jerry Heisenberg: Welcome to tonight's opening match, a qualifier for the Quest for the Case! In a bout scheduled for one-fall, our first competitor is from -He pauses and reads the paper in his hand- ...a place with no windows. Uh... she stands at 5'7 and weighs in at 148lbs... the Doll, SOPHIA HALTER!!!“Kiss My Eyes” starts up as the crowd begins to stir. All eyes on a dark entrance until spotlights flash on revealing Sophia Halter. They begin to flash rapidly like strobes while she slowly walks forward like a flickering ghost. There is nothing particularly special about how she stands at the top of the ramp.Kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep...The lights stop flickering and Sophia keeps the same slow pace making her way down the way occasionally reaching out to touch the handsextended towards her. Sophia's pace quickens, charging towards the ring she stops herself by running into the apron. One fist slams against the apron before Sophia climbs up. Both hands grab the middle rope with piercing eyes staring ahead. Her head is dipped but gaze is forward giving an almost insane appearance as her head tilts to the side. Calmly the brunette goes through the middles ofthe ropes to stand in the middle of the ring rising her arms up into the air. They drop and she backs into the corner rubbing her wrist with the opposite hand. Ruby Parvati: Oh great, another crazy person to add to VoW's arsenal...Axel Reid: It's rather rude to assume mental disability immediately equals a disorder.Ruby Parvati: ...her paperwork says she's FROM a place without windows...Axel Reid: The basement you filmed your smut in didn't have windows either. Doesn't make you crazy.Ruby Parvati: .........The fans are sitting on the edge of their seats waiting for the next bit of action to take place. That being said the arena lights find themselves dimming down at that moment. As the opening up Allstar Weekend's "Sorry. . ." began hitting the arena's speakers. After a few seconds the curtain is pushed to the side and a young man comes strutting out on the steel stage. He is rocking a pink hair band - giving off that 80s Rock Band and happens to be wearing a jean jacket. He looks out at the crowd with a smirk and starts to shout out loud "If you aren't crushing on me yet. You will be before the end of the night!" That being said he runs his hands through his hair briefly and throws them out to the side taunting the crowd. Seeing these antics, some of the boos from men get louder, but some of the cheers from women do as well. That's when Zach begins to make his way down the ramp with a strut in his step.Jerry Heisenberg: ...and Sophia's opponent.... standing at 6'2 and weighing 235lbs... he hails from Hollywood, California.... the Heart-throb ZACH MORRIS!!!By the time he has been introduced. Zakk is right there at ringside. He makes a short little jog towards the ring as he leaps up onto the ring apron and thanks to his knee pad. He is able to spin around smoothly and look out at the crowd. Pointing to a few ladies in the front row Zakk gives them a little wink before standing up. That's when he places his left leg over the middle rope and ducks down climbing into the ring. Zakk is quick to turn towards the nearest turnbuckle and starts climbing into the second rope. He runs his hand through his hair again and then tosses them out at the side for his taunting motion. Grabbing a hold of his head band, he tosses it out into the crowd. Turning around and leaping down from the turnbuckle. Zakk begins to take off his jean jacket as his music fades out.Ruby Parvati: Now take it off a little slower......Axel Reid: ...really, Ruby?Ruby Parvati: What?! He IS Everyone's Man Crush!As Ruby is saying this, in the ring we see Sophia quietly eyeing her opponent. Zach shoots her a wink as well, which she seems to be unaffected by. Shrugging it off, Morris smirks as the bell tolls, signalling the start of the match.DING DING DING!!!WHAM!Axel Reid: WHOA! Right away we have Zach driving his knee into her abdomen! He's already knocked the breath out of his opponent!!Ruby Parvati: I've read that he likes to keep his matches fast paced. While that would certainly wear down larger opponents, at the very least he can simply keep Sophia under control with this tactic!As Sophia doubles over, we see Morris go to pick her up in a suplex, but she keeps a tight grip around his neck as well, falling back and countering it into a sloppy but strong neckbreaker!! The fans are impressed by the show of unexpected strength from the smaller woman!Axel Reid: Though it was a difficult counter to do considering her size, Sophia did an excellent job getting out of that predicament! She might just be in control of this match now! And we've only just begun!Halter returns to her feet, backing up a bit as Zach shakes off the pain and gets back up himself. The Doll seems to be watching her opponent thoughtfully, as though hesitating, before she takes a step forward.... but Morris wants to keep things going fast, as he runs over and throws out a punch!! Sophia frantically dodges it... and another... and one more! Zach is backing her into a corner, and Halter glances back, then returns the gaze to her oncoming opponent and suddenly pops out a rough kick to stall him! Morris stumbles backwards as Sophia gets up on the middle rope and pauses, watching him a moment as he recovers... before bounding off for a tornado DDT! The fans cheer her on as she goes for a pin attempt......but the count doesn't even get to one when he practically throws her off of him! Moving slowly to his hands a knees, Morris grimaces in pain as we see a frustrated Sophia roll back up herself. Ruby Parvati: This has gotten pretty intense...Axel Reid: There's no slowing these two down!With Morris slowly starting to get to his feet, the Doll takes this chance to quickly bolt forward and leap up for a leg drop bulldog! But the Heartthrob catches his opponent.... and quickly reverses it into a powerbomb!!! Axel Reid: What a counter!!! And he's going for a pin attempt here!!!1 . . .2 . . .-NO!!!Ruby Parvati: Wow, she got up. I'm surprised. Axel Reid: I'm not. Sophia isn't one to be taken lightly. And I think Morris knows that.We see Zach push himself to his feet, a hand to his head. He brushes it off as best as he can, before dragging his foe to her feet. He throws her toward the nearest ropes, and as she comes off he goes for a clothesline! But a still dazed Sophia manages to duck under it! She stumbles slightly, but catches her footing and turns around... only to get a right hand to the face!!! The crowd can't help but boo at such an attack, as Zach seems to have a slightly arrogant look painted on his face.Axel Reid: Here we go again! Zach is going to grab her... but Sophia just stopped him with a bicycle kick! He's stumbling back and she continues forward with a jumping thesz press!Ruby Parvati: A perfect use of momentum and balance there, Axel. Even I can admit that!As Morris falls onto his back, Sophia keeps atop him and starts pounding away with mounted punches!! A few connect at first, startling the larger man, but eventually he starts blocking them. After swaying to avoid a hit, he manages to shove her off of him and backs up and away, scrambling to his feet as he's shaking off the assault. Sophia also stands, her fists still tightened as though ready to continue the barrage. She heads over, and instead of using her fists, Halter goes for another kick... but Zach catches it this time! Before he can do a thing, Sophia jumps up, using the opportunity to hit an enziguri! This forces the larger man to let go as he stumbles slightly. The Doll falls to the mat, rolls away from her foe, then pushes herself back up.Axel Reid: Both competitors seem a bit out of it after a well fought match, but only one can come out on top here tonight...... don't even say it, Ruby.Ruby Parvati: Aww. But I--Axel Reid: Sophia seems to be favoring her back and that now bruised cheek, but on the flip side we have Zach favoring his head! When the Doll gets a hit in, she hits HARD.As Axel is saying this, we see Sophia shake off the cobwebs, looking worn out but... there seems to be a slight bit of hysteria in her eyes. As she rubs her cheek, Morris is seen heading over again. But the Doll is faster, bursting forward and suddenly diving low at the last minute!!Ruby Parvati: UH OH...Axel Reid: SOPHIA JUST TOOK ZACK's LEGS OUT!We see Halter roll back up and come off the nearest ropes, heading right back at pained Zach, who is now on a knee as he attempts to get back up. The crowd can't help but cheer now as Sophia hits a BRUTAL DRIVE-BY KICK!!!Ruby Parvati: ...AND THERE IT IS! THE FINAL BREAK!!!Axel Reid: Sophia has knocked her opponent for a loop with such a brutal attack! And she's going for the pin!!!1 . . .2 . . .3!!!DING DING DING!!!Axel Reid: Sophia has done it! She has not only won her first match here in VoW... but she has also earned a huge opportunity at the pay-per-view!!! Congratulations!Jerry Heisenberg: The winner, via pinfall, and moving on to the Quest for the Case match at Heatstroke... SOPHIA HALTER!!!Seeming semi-happy about her victory, Sophia smiles slightly at the fans' respectful cheering, raising her arms triumphantly. After a couple of minutes, she heads out of the ring as a coming to Morris eventually does the same... |

Life Hacks
Axel Reid: What a match put on for the “Quest for the Case” tournament. Things are heating up going into Heatstroke. I am sure everyone can remember the man who won that iconic first Quest for the Case, he is now our World Visionary Champion only a year later. ZIU ZHONG! Like a reoccurring nightmare Axel is cut off with the voice of a Manson Family member. "yeah, I remember her saying:I'm already dead... I'm already dead... I'm already dead..."Ruby Parvati: Finally this show is about to get entertaining. The lights flicker revealing Casanova English on the stage the crowd boos loudly as the voice continues."You're going to get up and scream. I'm already dead... I'm already dead... I'm already dead..."You're going to get up and-Burn an x in your head."Axel Reid: I bet he feels a little naked without that championship. It's nice that he doesn't have it here to rub in the face of these loyal VOW fans.Ruby Parvati:At Heatstroke he will reclaim what is his Axel. Pyro blasts off and the lights turn back on as Casanova English takes a long drag off his already lit cigarette. English is dressed in a suit tonight minus the jacket. He walks slowly to the edge of the stage microphone in hand over looking the crowd. Casanova takes a long haul and blows smoke into the air. Some of the Quebec crowd cheers for their Canadian brother, but mostly the attitude is hostile. He's not only a heel, he lost the championship on his home soil. The music fades out as English pulls the microphone to his lips. English: You really think this is a brilliant plan? This is what you wanted from the start isn't it Frei? You wanted a match like this to determine your champion. I just held this company hostage and I demanded my shot. I know that you believe this truly determines who the best in VOW is, but I believe I proved that a long time ago. What is this crowd going to think when the new WORLD Champion falls to a second tier champion. . . I will tell you. They are going to realize that this whole landscape is fictional. I will continue to bring the reality into this corporation when I take back what was stolen from me. When I hold up that World Visionary Championship. I promise this at Heatstroke a member of the new breed, a member of the revolution. . . an Orphan will leave with the World Visionary Championship. Whether it is me or Carson, the truth is we have transcended. Ruby Parvati: They have done it night in and night out, they have showed us their dominance Axel. English is speaking the truth. He slipped up in his match with Ziu, but he will correct that mistake. Axel Reid: English has never pinned Mr. Seflie to the mat Ruby, and there is a reason. He is better, he is better and people like you are delusional. English: Tonight I want to officially introduce you all to another member of The Orphanage. I tell you all this is bigger than wrestling. I have expanded my stretch to you! To people who might be in this audience. The Orphanage is growing, and in that I am looking for a plethora of skills. Not skills that are just suitable for this ring, but skills that can be used to help destroy those that oppress us. Skills like hacking an entire arena. I would like to introduce all of you to the newest member of The Orphanage 'The Glitch in the System” StuFish.pif!Axel Ried: This idiots just keep sprouting up.Ruby Parvati: Another piece added to The Revolution. As per usual, the arena goes black. The high pitched sound of what looks like the outline of a bomb flickers and fades in and out 4 times in time. Once the actual chiptune kicks in, the lights flash in time with the kick-in, and on the second kick in, StuFish.pif appears with his keyboard in right hand. He stops on the stage and looks on at the crowd for a few seconds before snapping his head in the direction of English. He slowly tilts his head and smiles wide walking over to receive the microphone from English. Casanova whispers in his new comrades ear, slaps him on the back and exits leaving him the stage.
StuFish: In case you don't know my name, it's Stu, and I'm the reason your favorite rookie isn't here tonight. I'm the reason you should turn off your phone, and I'm probably the reason why your heroes are a little less wealthy.
The crowd quiets down in confusion from that last line, as it didn't quite make sense, but Stu did seem off his meds, as usual.
StuFish: You see, I'm the only unpaid wrestler in this company, so I hack into everybody's bank accounts and take about 15 dollars from their savings, but obviously not my new Orphanage friends' accounts. Whoever said that 'hacking couldn't get you anywhere in life' is dead...ly mistaken. Yeah, my parents said that, and they're kind of dead, have been for several years. It's really sad, but not my kind of story. I like history. History like this past Breakthrough, where like ol' Cass said, I hacked an entire arena.
The crowd catches on, remembering what exactly happened and so Stu recieves every single jeer littering the arena.
StuFish: I won't bore you with details, even though most of them would go over every last one of your thick skulls, but the end result was that target one on my mental list was deleted. The target's name? Poor little Katie Moicelle. I hope she's watching from whatever crapsack hotel in Jeebus-Knows, Ontario she's trapped in, because I could hack into that from here.
Stu pulls out a smart-tablet, a Samsung Galaxy Note, and almost immediately, he hacks into the TitanTron, showing the moment when Stu threw Katie over the barricade into a few empty chairs. He lets that play from the official VoW angle, and a couple of bootleg angles he stole from fans.
StuFish: Remember me now? If not, you will at Heatstroke.
Stu places the mic down as his chiptune starts and he walks off the stage to his locker room. |

#CONSPIRACYVICTIM Axel Reid: Our next match tonight features one half of the self-described Team Xcellent, and-- well, the match hasn't started yet but here comes Herring's new so-called attorney, Mr. Francis Ferrari.Down the aisle, to a chorus of boos, comes Francis Ferrari, affectionately known as Frank. He's wearing an ill-fitting brown suit, his top button undone and his tie loosened around his neck. The short, stocky, bald, and noticeably sweaty waddles to the ring, and approaches ring announcer Jerry Heisenberg.Ruby Parvati: I've heard good things about this guy, Axel. He's a big-shot New York lawyer.Axel Reid: If this guy has his law license, my name is John Grisham.Frank grabs the microphone from Jerry, and stands in the center of the ring.Francis Ferrari: Ladies and, uh, gentlemen: Tonight, this match is, whattyacallit, scheduled for one fall. Axel Reid: You've got to be kidding me.Francis Ferrari: Introducing first--The drums to Nirvana's "Scentless Apprentice" kick in, and as the opening riff hits, "Phenomenal" Steve Herring walks backwards through the curtain, showing off the message on the back of his shirt: #CONSPIRACYVICTIM".Francis Ferrari: --he weighs in at a lean, mean and cut 220 and one-quarta pounds! He stands at a towerin' six-foot-two and-a-half! He is part a' Team Xcellent, and hails from the mean streets of Chicago, Illi-noise! This is da Phenomenal One himself! Da future holder of the Case! Da one! Da only! STEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVE HERRIIIIIIIIIIING!!Herring slides into the ring, basking in what can only be described as contempt from the Ottawa fans. He takes off his shirt and holds it high above his head, turning it from the #CONSPIRACYVICTIM message to the PHENOM logo on the front before tossing it into the crowd. The fan who catches it tosses it back, and Herring tosses it in the crowd again. The back-and-forth game of catch with the t-shirt goes on for a few moments before a visibly annoyed Steve Herring tosses the shirt to the timekeeper, screaming "DON'T LOSE IT!"Axel Reid: This guy is such a blowhard. It's hard to take anything he says or does seriously.Ruby Parvati: Speak for yourself, Axel. That was one of the most breathtaking entrances I've ever seen. Look at this, I've got goosebumps!Axel Reid: Don't be absurd. Finally the music is dying down. Maybe we can finally get this match started.Announcer Jerry Heisenberg heads over to Francis Ferrari to get his microphone back, but Herring leans over and whispers something into Frank's ear. Ferrari holds on to the mic another moment and addresses the crowd once again.Francis Ferrari: Mistah Herring has just asked me to inform youse all that this match is bein' wrestled under, whattyacallit, protest, until the conspiracy against Team Xcellent comes to an end.Frank hands the mic back to Jerry Heisenberg as the angry crowd directs obscenities towards the ring.Axel Reid: What in the world is this jerk talking about?Ruby Parvati: It means they'll be filing an official complaint for review with the head office, Axel! Read your handbook!Axel Reid: Oh, come off it! This isn't Major League Baseball! There's no playing under "protest," and there's nothing here to review! More stupid conspiracy nonsense from Steve Herring.Frank leaves the ring as Herring stands waiting for his opponent. |

Steve Herring vs Tyler Storm The arena turns pitch black as the low beat and twang of "Country Song" by Seether begins to play. An upward stream of smoke, visible by a small bit of light under it, comes from the middle of the stage. Tyler slowly walks up to the smoke stream, his head facing the ground as a spotlight follows him. Tyler stands over the smoke, remaining motionless as the smoke stream becomes stronger and faster.
Jerry Heisenberg: The following contest is a singles match scheduled for one fall! Already in the ring, STEEEVVVE HERRRRRINNGG!
We momentarily cut to Herring who glares over at Jerry for introducing him once more but none the less he throws up those 2 fingers and mouths the words "TOO GOOD"
Jerry Heisenberg: And his opponent, making his way to the ring, standing in at 6 foot and 4 inches, weighing in at 178 pounds...From Tuscaloosa, Alabama..."The Southern Striker", "The Hybrid"...TYYYLLLEERR STOOORRRMMM!
As the song kicks in at about 50 seconds, the smoke and spotlight both shut off for a quick second, followed instantaneously by a quick loud boom and the lights coming on fully with flashes of blue and white light going along with the beat of the song. Tyler goes into full energetic mode, jumping from the stage to the beginning of the ramp and jogging down to the ring giving fans high-fives.
Axel Reid: Much to the dismay of Tyler's opponent this is match number 2 for the night and it's a clash between two men who will meet in the Quest for The Case ladder match at Heatstroke. The same match that was first won by our current World Visionary Champion, Ziu Zhong
Ruby Parvati: Normally whenever you mention that Karate Kid I almost barf but in that instance I can't deny it...winning that case led him to a damn stubborn run with that Zero Gravity Championship which led management to give him his current championship practically on a silver platter...
Axel Reid: However you look at it, this could be a step into momentum for either one of these men.
As Tyler reaches the end of the ramp, he pauses for a second to again look around at the crowd, then makes a quick slide into the ring. There he gets down on one knee in the middle of the ring, quickly looks around again, then punches the ground and while jumping up lets out a yell. Tyler then walks over to his corner and waits for the opening bell. Both men get checked for any foreign object before the referee rings the opening bell.
DING! DING! DING!
Axel Reid: And we're under way!
Both men begin to circle the ring slowly as the crowd claps in order to get behind Tyler Storm, they both slowly come to the middle and lock up in the center of the ring with a collar and elbow tie up. Tyler uses his slight height advantage to power Herring into a headlock, Storm wrenches it in before taking Herring to the mat with a headlock takeover. Herring immediately realises he may be in trouble and reverses the mat headlock by rolling Tyler over and onto his shoulders...
1...
Storm releases the headlock to escape the sly pin attempt and both men make it to their feet in quick time. Herring goes for kick to the gut but Storm catches his foot, drops it and delivers a huge chop to the chest of Steve! He proceeds to grab the wrist of the Phenom and wrenches at it. Herring escapes out of it by dropping to the mat and rolling backwards onto his feet before leaping up and tossing Tyler to the mat with a Japanese style arm drag! Tyler scrambles to his feet and as Steve charges and gets hit with a Jumping Knee Strike right under his chin that sends him staggering back!
Ruby Parvati: The feeling out process is slowly vanishing into an all out striking match.
Axel Reid: Indeed it is, Tyler hits the ropes and charges back connecting with a beautiful leaping back elbow smash!
Storm dives onto Herring and hooks his leg for a cover...
1...
2..- KICKOUT BY HERRING!
The crowd is slowly getting behind Tyler all the way as he rises to his feet and pulls Herring up with him. Storm whips Herring off into a corner and follows right behind him before connecting with a jumping double knee strike right to his chest! He lands back on his feet and scoops Herring up before hanging him in a Tree of Woe position in the corner before charging into the opposite corner, slamming into it and charging back before leaping high into the air and landing an arrow like Hesitation Dropkick!
Axel Reid: Tyler is showing Steve Herring exactly why he's known as the Southern Striker!
Ruby Parvati: Couple of knees and kicks, don't earn you that nickname.
Herring is still dangling there as Storm rolls backwards and onto his feet before delivering another drop kick to his face! Steve is STILL dangling there so Tyler once more rolls backwards onto his feet before unleashing a vicious kick right to the chest of Steve! Herring drops onto his neck in agony as Tyler hooks in a wheelbarrow onto Herring, hoisting him up and out of the corner. Storm creatively transitions the wheelbarrow into a regular waistlock before arching backwards and dropping Herring on the back of his head with a beautifully executed German Suplex with a bridge!
1...
2...-KICKOUT BY HERRING!
Ruby Parvati: It's going to take a lot more than a little old German Suplex to put away The Phenom.
Axel Reid: Although it was a damn good German Suplex, to be fair...
Herring sits up, clutching the back of his head as Storm is up onto his feet as well. He rolls Herring onto his feet and delivers a big boot right to his gut before connecting right under his chin with a European uppercut! Herring staggers back and Tyler follows him before hitting him with a perfectly executed rolling elbow! Herring shakes it off for a moment before returning it with and elbow of his own. Storm realises that Herring is trying to build some sort of a comeback and surprises him with a kick to the gut again but Herring charges into Tyler, lifting him off his feet and powering him into the corner before delivering heavy shoulder thrusts into the abdomen of The Hybrid!
Ruby Parvati: That's how you do it, baby!
Herring sets Tyler straight before hitting him with a vicious chest chop that has Storm reeling in the corner. Herring charges to the opposite corner before darting back and diving onto Storm with the Phenom Splash before once again zipping over to that same opposing corner. He is quick to give the crowd the international symbol for "It's over!" before charging down...
Axel Reid: El Steve-O-Bota! NO! Tyler shifts his head to the side, Steve's foot misses and sits on Storm's shoulder! Storm hosits him up...LOOK AT THIS STRENGTH FROM TYLER STORM! SITOUT POWERBOMB! COVER!
1...
2- STEVE HERRING STILL KICKS OUT!
Herring somehow rolls out of the sitout and onto his feet and Tyler rolls backwards onto his feet to follow. Herring is ready and waiting however and as Tyler is rising Steve applies a front facelock before dropping Storm on his head with a DDT! BOTH MEN ARE DOWN!
Axel Reid: Both of these men are proving why they are going to be serious contenders for not only that Quest for The Case but potentially whatever title opportunity may come their way!
Tyler is slowly stirring as Herring is rolled onto is knees and is pulling himself up to his feet. Storm rolls onto his stomach, rattling his head in an attempt to shake off the cobwebs. Herring picks Storm up from the mat with a front facelock. He lifts Tyler up to a veritcal and hooks his arm over for an attempt at an Exploder Suplex but Tyler is fighting it off, delivering elbows to the back of his head before transitioning it into an arm lock but Herring rolls through to escape. He pops up and spins around to duck the rolling elbow attempt from Tyler, catching his arm, hoisting him up and dropping him on the back of his head and shoulders with a powerful Exploder Suplex! He floats over and hooks the leg for a pin attempt!
1...
2...
3- NO! TYLER KICKS OUT!
Axel Reid: Exploder Suplex nearly got Herring there but Storm is far too persistent on winning this match.
Herring hooks Tyler's head for a headlock once again, going back to slowing down the pace.
Ruby Parvati: This is a genius move, rest up while draining the life out of your damn opponent.
Tyler is trying to fight out of it though, rolling onto his hands and knee and pushing himself up to his feet. Herring maintains the headlock though but Storm is persistent on getting out, delivering elbows right to his abdomen. Tyler finally elbows Herring off of him, Steve charges in just to get a boot to his gut, Storm hoists him up looking for that Crucifix Cutter he likes using...
Axel Reid: Wait a minute...What the hell is he doing out here? He has a damn main event tonight!
Ryder Blade can be seen charging down to the ring and he hops up onto the apron trying to distract Tyler. Storm drops Herring from the Crucifix, confused as to why Ryder is out here.
Ruby Parvati: Yes! Ryder do something!
Axel Reid: What the hell is this? Referee get him out of here!
Storm and Ryder trade some words, Tyler says something that clearly annoys Blade who merely replies with "WHERE'S THAT HOT BABE OF YOURS TO SAVE YOU NOW?". Storm shakes his head at his comment before dropping the Xcellent Champion with a right hand! The crowd erupts but from behind Steve nails Tyler with a European uppercut! Storm drops to one knee and Herring grabs him by his hair and slams his head against the top turnbuckle! He places Tyler in the corner before quickly bursting into action.
Axel Reid: Ryder made a crude comment towards Tyler's wife and now Herring has capitalised and he's got Storm in the corner...PHENOM SPLASH! He's heading back to the opposing corner...running in and EL STEVE-O-BOTA CONNECTS!
Storm drops to the mat as Herring realises he has an open opportunity to escape with the win here. He hops up onto the second rope and flips off the crowd who jeer him back in return before yelling out "KISS MY ASS, TYLER STORM!" before leaping off and...missing the leg drop! Herring flails around in agony after landing on his tail bone! Storm scrambles to his feet and grabs hold of Steve!
Ruby Parvati: No, no, no, no...
Axel Reid: Tyler going for a swinging neckbreaker...no, he's holding it at the inverted headlock...He pushes out AND ABSOLUTELY STICKS STEVE WITH A ROLLING ELBOW TO THE BACK OF HIS HEAD! HYBRID STRIKE!
Ruby Parvati: Steve is out on his feet...Ryder get up and do something!
Storm tucks his head inbetween the legs of Herring and hoists him up in an electric chair position before tucking his head down and DRIVING HERRING INTO THE MAT WITH EYE OF THE STORM! Ryder hops onto the apron but Tyler is staring him down as the referee drops to count.
Axel Reid: That's the Eye of The Storm!
1...
2...
3...?
3...!
DING! DING! DING!
"Country Song" by Seether plays as the crowd erupt with cheers. Ryder clutches at his jaw as Storm rises to his feet in celebration!
Jerry Heisenberg: The winner of the match, via pinfall...TYYLLLEEERRR STOOORRRMM!!
Axel Reid: Whoa whoa!
Suddenly from out of nowhere Ryder jumps Storm from behind, stomping on him over and over as Herring is trying to figure out where he is. He slowly comes to and finds Ryder stomping on the man that just pinned him. He rises to his feet and joins Ryder in pounding on Storm!
Axel Reid: What the hell is this about? What a bunch of sore losers these two are?! This is abslolute madness!
Ruby Parvati: Team Xcellent are making a statement, Axel. They are going to dominate VoW in the next few months...
DING! DING! DING! DING! DING!
Suddenly..."Red Flag" by Billy Talent blares throughout the arena...There's a moment of confusion before OWEN GONSALVES BURSTS OUT FROM BEHIND THE CURTAIN, CHAIR IN HAND! Owen charges down the ramp and slides in the ring with his equaliser as Herring and Ryder both high tail it out of the ring! The crowd is on their feet as Owen throws the chair out, aiming for Steve Herring's head but falls short!
Axel Reid: Owen Gonsalves has returned! We haven't seen Owen since his I Quit Match with Seth Iser at Fate of The Gods! He's back and in the knick of time, who would've known what these two idiots would've done to Tyler?
Ruby Parvati: This isn't Owen's business...
Axel Reid: Owen and Tyler are long time best friends, Ruby...Owen came out to aid his best friend from being mauled by the pack of hyenas known as Team Xcellent.
Ryder and Steve back up the ramp, both shouting things like "Mondo lame" and "Totally not your business, bro!" at Owen as Gonsalves checks up on his friend.
Axel Reid: Tyler and Steve will meet in Quest for The Case, Owen has returned and Ryder Blade will face Ziu Zhong in our main event! We'll be right back!

Via Satellite
Axel Reid: Well folks, what a show we’ve had so far and there’s still plenty more action left to come...Ruby Parvati: Indeed, including a champion versus champion Main Event where we’ll see World Visionary Champion, Ziu Zhong go one on one in a non-title contest against the Xcellent Champion, Ryder Blade...Axel Reid: However up next, we’re hoping to go live to the hotel room belonging to Stacy Jones to get an update on her condition after undergoing eye surgery...The titantron flickers to life as we see Stacy Jones sitting down, looking into the camera with a smile on her face as the fans cheer wildly. She is dressed in a pair of black leather high heeled boots, a pair of skin tight black leather trousers, a black Nightwish Imaginearum T-shirt, a black leather jacket and a black eye patch over her right eye.Axel Reid: Hello Stacy, Axel Reid here, can you hear me?After a few brief moments of delay, Jones can be seen nodding.Stacy Jones: I can hear you loud and clear Axel...Axel Reid: Great, well thanks for joining us here this evening...Stacy Jones: It’s my pleasure...Axel Reid: So I’m going to get straight too it, you were forced to miss this final edition of Breakthrough due to needing eye surgery, can you tell us how your recovery is going and whether you will be able to make it to Heatstroke?Stacy Jones: In all honesty Axel, I’m already medically cleared to wrestle right now, I was just taking my doctors advice by taking this week off just as a precaution. So yeah, I will definitely be ready for Heatstroke...Axel Reid: That’s great news, has the fact that you’re involved in your first ever World title match sunk in yet?Jones lets out a small chuckle and shakes her head.Stacy Jones: No it hasn’t, I find myself constantly contacting Ryan and asking him if I am actually involved in this match. Ever since I started training to become a wrestler, I’ve always dreamed of one day becoming a World Champion. I finally have that opportunity at Heatstroke, it’s going to be extremely tough, I’m facing five top wrestlers in this match, but I’m going to give it my all...Axel Reid: Do you have anything to say to Seth Iser in regards to what he said about you at the last edition of Breakthrough?Once again, Jones chuckles.Stacy Jones: Oh, I have plenty to say to Iser, along with my other four opponents...but that’s for another time...Ruby Parvati: Stacy, Ruby Parvati here...I don’t really care about this whole thing but your idiot fans do so I’m going to ask this on behalf of them. With you being the special guest referee for the match between Katie Moicelle and Tayla Williams, where if Williams loses, you won’t be able see or train Moicelle ever again, however if Moicelle wins, Williams will leave VoW and your relationship will be over. Many of these fans of yours are wondering if you will call the match down the middle?Jones smirks, shaking her head.Stacy Jones: First of all Ruby, my fans are not idiots...and how dare you call them idiots! You know, I’ve heard the constant abuse you hurl at me, my family, my friends and my fans and you know what Ruby? The only reason why I haven’t caved your face in with my boot already is because one, I don’t want to lose my job and two, I respect Ryan and Stefan too much to give them a headache by trying to find a replacement commentator for your sorry ass!The fans cheer wildly at the comments directed towards Parvati.Stacy Jones: But to answer your question, yes, I will be calling the match down the middle. It’s no secret I’m here in a predicament that I didn’t want to be involved in, and I honestly don’t want either of them to win the match because I don’t want my relationship with Tayla to end and I don’t want to stop training Katie. The best case scenario for me would be a double disqualification or a double count-out...however if the time does come where either Katie or Tayla look as if they’re going to win, I will do my job...Axel Reid: Well Stacy, thank you for joining us and we’ll look forward to seeing you at Heatstroke...Stacy Jones: Thanks Axel...The feed then cuts off and the camera cuts back to Reid and Parvati.Axel Reid: Well there you have it folks, especially all you fans of Stacy Jones, she will be at Heatstroke...Ruby Parvati: I hope she gets destroyed in that cage...Axel Reid: Well you may hope that Ruby, but I can guarantee that all of her fans out there, will be hoping she walks out of that cage as the brand new VoW World Visionary Champion... |

Andrew Charles Evans vs Scarlet Flint
Ruby Parvati: ...nonetheless, let's move on to our next bout, hmm?Axel Reid: Right. This one will be a good one, I'm counting on it.Ruby Parvati: By good you mean a bloodbath, right? Considering who is apart of this match, I'm awaiting the moment when the mat is painted red.Axel Reid: Let's not hope it gets too gruesome...Jerry Heisenberg: Our next fight is a singles match scheduled for one fall! First to the ring, she weighs in at a mere 95lbs and stands at 5'2... hailing from New York City... the Lil Red Reaper... SCARLET FLINT!!!The lights dim as “Ground Slayer” by Benea Reach begins to play. After 45 seconds or so, Scarlet slowly walks out from behind the curtains, dressed in a Red jacket. She looks down at the ground for another 10 seconds. As the song’s drums kick in, Scarlet lift’s her head and a wicked smirk on her face. She starts to slowly make her way to the ring. As she reaches the ring, she wipes her boots and then hops onto the ring-apron. She hops over the ropes, heads to the nearest corner, and takes a seat on the mat (leaning against the bottom and middle turnbuckles). She then waits for her opponent...Ruby Parvati: I still can't get over how small she is.Axel Reid: Considering she's not only in the Quest for the Case match at Heatstroke, but also is so far undefeated, obviously means that size doesn't always matter...Ruby Parvati: Do you tell yourself that often, Axel?Axel Reid: .....Jerry Heisenberg: ...And Scarlet's opponent tonight... he weighs in at 237lbs and stands at 6'3... hailing from the uh, Underworld... he is ANDREW CHARLES EVANS!!!Once "Would You Be Impressed" by Streetlight Manifesto hits, ACE appears wearing his black leather fedora and his leather trench coat. He walks down the ramp whilst shuffling a deck of playing cards. He occasionally acknowledges the crowd but shrugs themoff and sneers at them. Before he climbs into the ring he finishes shuffling and takes out of the deck a single Ace of Hearts, with the rest of the cards he throws over at a member of the audience, agitating them as the rest of the crowd boos. He then rolls in the ring and stands on the rope, raising the Ace of Hearts against his face directly into the camera as it does a close up. We pan out as ACE then looks over at Scarlet with an arrogant look. Flint returns the look with a hostile one of her own, as the bell tolls.DING DING DING!!!Axel Reid: And the match has begun!Ruby Parvati: And as we know, Scarlet tends to enjoy inflicting pain on her opponents more than anything... so of course she's the first to head over!Flint bolts toward ACE, ducking a forearm he goes for. She comes off the ropes and returns with a swift running single leg dropkick! It connects, sending her opponent backward. He easily catches himself, but doesn't have time to react when Scarlet keeps forward and hits an ace crusher!!!Axel Reid: A beautifully executed ace crusher...Ruby Parvati: Ha! ACE crusher. Love it!Scarlet rolls back up to her feet and moves quickly to the nearest turnbuckle. She climbs atop and waits for her foe to slowly stand. He turns around and Flint immediately flies off for a missile dropkick! But ACE suddenly drops to the mat, stomach first! He balances in a push-up position as his foe crashes and burns, before pushing himself to his feet!!!The crowd gives a mixed reaction, mostly boos, as Flint rolls on the mat after landing hard on it. Andrew nonchalantly saunters over and yanks her up. He smiles at her in a rather cocky way, before chopping her! The much smaller woman literally stumbles back, with multiple chops continuing! ACE stops suddenly, before flinging her toward the nearest ropes! She comes back, only for him to catch her and hit a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker!!! Axel Reid: My god, that's painful...Ruby Parvati: Well I certainly wouldn't want to be Scarlet right now...As Flint rolls on the ground, ACE taunts the fans a bit. He then starts to drop for the pin attempt... but Scarlet rolls out of the way!! She continues rolling until she's out of the ring, and the ref starts the count as she moves along the outside, favoring her back. Evans is shouting out at her, pointing, a smirk on his face. Flint just stares, cold and calculating, before finally getting back up on the apron.She grabs the ropes and uses them to leap from, and as ACE prepares to catch her, Scarlet simply uses his shoulders to flip over him! She lands behind him and turns around to jump up and catch him off guard with a backstabber!! It does enough damage to keep him down for a few seconds, and she takes that moment to catch her breath, grimacing from the pain in her back. But she shakes it off as Andrew is recovering and starting to get up. He's on his knees as Flint swiftly runs to the nearest ropes. Coming off them, she returns with a brutal somersault cutter!!Axel Reid: WOW! What a move!!!Ruby Parvati: I'm impressed.Axel Reid: As is the crowd!! Listen to them roar!Ruby Parvati: And here is the pin attempt...1 . . .2-NO!!ACE comes to and bench presses his foe off of him! Scarlet does NOT seem happy, as she rolls back to her feet and flinches again.Axel Reid: It looks like Scarlet's still feeling that backbreaker. She's been handling it well during this match, but that might change...Ruby Parvati: And I think ACE has noticed that... Andrew gets up and they circle one another now. This time ACE lurches forward for a simple kick! Flint easily dodges, moving to go for her own... but her foe catches her leg! He grins at her again, the fans boos becoming louder, as he then throws her leg out, causing her to spin around. He grabs hold of her from behind at the opportune moment, before hitting a releasing German suplex!! We hear her cry out as she lands on her back!ACE hurriedly rolls to his feet and runs over to her again. He yanks her upward, grabbing her and then hitting a vertical suplex!!! As she's laid out there, Andrew taunts the fans once more, before leaning down and picking his foe up under her arms. He then situates himself properly and hits yet another German suplex!!! The trio of suplexes has Scarlet in agony! And ACE drops for the pin attempt!1 . . .2 . . .3-BAM!!!!!Axel Reid: ACE's head was a little too close to Flint's when he was holding her down!! She just HEADBUTTED HIM!!! That was a close one!!Ruby Parvati: She was in a lot of pain from her back, but she used her head... literally! But how much time did that award her...?We see Scarlet slowly roll away from a grimacing Andrew, who rubs the side of his head. He moves to stand and watches Scarlet roll all the way to the other side of the ring. She uses the ropes to carefully pull herself up to her feet, favoring her back, as her gaze trails to ACE. He's starting to stroll over, and seems to say something to her as he does. The pained look morphs into one of focused anger, and she seems to lock in on him, even as he grabs her and Irish whips her into the furthest corner...Ruby Parvati: It amazes me that she is still standing...Axel Reid: Well as we know, her time in Japan, among other things, has made her able to take a bit more punishment than normal.ACE stops heading over again when he notices Scarlet now moving forward. She shakes her head and dodges a right hand from her foe, who turns around and goes to grab her. But Flint quickly snaps up a palm strike! It connects with his nose, and Andrew is too startled to react as the smaller woman continues the assault with multiple, swift palm strikes to that same area!! Soon enough we see blood starting to flow, and Scarlet pauses for a mere second... but long enough for ACE to come back with a hand of his own!!! His fist flies right into her mouth, and she stumbles back, but seems barely phased, the adrenaline almost visibly rushing through her!Axel Reid: ... these two are starting to look more like wild animals than wrestlers. The looks in both of their eyes are frightening...Ruby Parvati: And naturally, the sadistic crowd is enjoying every second of it...Licking the slight bit of blood from her lower lip, Flint backs up a bit as ACE has a hand to his nose. He glowers at her, as his anger levels start rising. But Scarlet ignores the look, and the excited fans, as she starts running toward him again! This time Andrew catches her and flapjacks her into the air! But as she comes down, the Lil Red Reaper follows through with a falling hurricanrana!!!Axel Reid: What a counter!!! Ruby Parvati: And with ACE trying to get up again... we already know what's going to happen!BOOM!Axel Reid: THERE IT IS! Her Killshot Knee... DEATH NOTE! That's GOT to hurt!Ruby Parvati: And Andrew is down. As anyone would be at this point...We watch as Scarlet wipes the blood from her mouth and stares wildly down at her foe, before the look fades and she seems to calm down momentarily... enough to drop for the pin attempt...DING DING DING!!!Axel Reid: Scarlet has done it! After a brutal, hard fought match... she has pulled out the victory!Ruby Parvati: Indeed. A job well done to both competitors... now both of you please seek help. Holy sh-bleep-...Jerry Heisenberg: The winner via pinfall... SCARLET FLINT!!!Scarlet, despite hearing the bell, moves to stand... before proceeding to stomp away at Andrew violently. As staff personnel hurry forward to get her away from ACE, she abruptly stops and slowly drops down to a knee, the adrenaline finally wearing off as she's holding her back. EMTs are rushing down as we momentarily cut to commercial. |

A Euology
We come back from commercial and the ring canvas is black and in all four corners, a bouquet of white roses are attached to the turnbuckles. In the ring sits a casket along with a large portrait photograph of Theodore Thompson and there is also a wooden podium. Standing behind the podium, dressed in a pair of black polished leather shoes, a pair of black smart trousers and a long sleeved black smart buttoned up shirt is member of The Orphanage, “The Punisher” Matthew Robinson.Axel Reid: What the Hell is this all about? Why is this guy already out of prison?Ruby Parvati: Be quiet Axel!Robinson clears his throat and adjusts the microphone attached to the podium.Matthew Robinson: Thanks to Casanova English’s good friend, Mr Bryan Combs, I was bailed out of prison so I could be here this evening to pay my respects and give a farewell, to Theodore Thompson...The fans boo heavily, however Robinson just ignores them.Matthew Robinson: I deeply regret what I did to Mr Thompson at the last edition of Breakthrough...I regret not doing it sooner!The booing increases and Robinson smirks.Matthew Robinson: This man was nothing but a slimy, disgusting, obese grease ball who went as far as turning his back on his own flesh and blood to become the advocate for Seifer Black! How could you possibly cheer for someone who would turn on his own nephew? And why did he turn on his nephew? It’s simple...money...The fans continue to boo.Matthew Robinson: He knew that because Seifer Black is one of your heroes, that he would get more merchandise sales than his nephew, Edward Myers...he knew that more of you sheep would come to these shows to see him over Myers, so he turned his back on own flesh and blood just so he could earn himself more money, but that’s no real surprise is it, after all, Theodore Thompson is a corrupt businessman, just like every other top businessman in the world today...Robinson then walks over to the casket and opens it up to reveal Thompson laying there inside of it before he heads back over to the podium.Matthew Robinson: So Teddy, all I have left to say to you is...good riddance! May you rot in Hell!The fans boo heavily yet again as Robinson just chuckles sadistically.Axel Reid: This man is so cold-hearted it’s unbelievable...Ruby Parvati: Why? Because he tells the truth?Suddenly the lights start to flicker and a red substance begins to rain down onto Robinson.Axel Reid: What the Hell? Is that...blood?Ruby Parvati: I have no idea...A spotlight then appears in the rafters of the arena above the titantron and we see Seifer Black attached to a zip wire with a large pair of black angel wings strapped to his back as the fans cheer wildly.Axel Reid: It’s Seifer Black!Ruby Parvati: What in the world is he doing up there?Black then begins to descend diagonally as Robinson stares at him perplexed.Axel Reid: This is surreal...Ruby Parvati: This is unnecessary...As Black continues to descend towards the ring, suddenly, Thompson sits up in the casket and instantly puts his finger up to his lips making sure the fans don’t give anything away.Axel Reid: What the? How is this man even here?!?!Ruby Parvati: I don’t know, but I wish he wasn’t...Thompson then climbs out of the casket and walks up behind Robinson and as soon as Black’s feet touch the canvas, Thompson delivers a swift low blow to Robinson.Axel Reid: A measure of revenge from Thompson right there!Ruby Parvati: Poor Matt!Black then detaches himself from the zip wire and the angel wings and then hoists Robinson up onto his shoulders and drops him with the “Fade To Black” sending the fans into a frenzy.Axel Reid: And the Fade To Black connects!Ruby Parvati: That was uncalled for!Black then trashes the set up in the ring before climbing the turnbuckle and raising his arms high above his head as “Firestarter” by Sepultura blasts out of the PA system.Axel Reid: Ladies and gentlemen, if anyone doubted if Seifer Black was ready for his match with Robinson at Heatstroke, then surely that doubt has now been diminished...Ruby Parvati: Mind games and sneak attacks won’t help him win the match at Heatstroke, Robinson is a much better wrestler and Black has no chance...Black then climbs down off the turnbuckle and leaves the ring along with Thompson and the two head up the ramp slapping fans hands before disappearing to the back as we cut to commercial. |

Gears
We fade back in to see the Baddest Bitch herself, Cera, stalking the backstage area. Her eyes are narrowed slightly, as though deep in wicked thought... which is interrupted by the familiar high pitched voice of her manager Jen Ryette.Jen Ryette: CERA BURR! --She jumps on her back-- Where ya goin?!Cera: Get off of me, you moron.Cera growls this, before throwing Jen into the nearest wall. The small Asian squeaks in pain, jumping away from her "friend"/client. She brushes herself off and glowers at Cera, who actually answers her question...Cera: I'm on my way to find Judas. I just spoke with the higher ups a little bit ago. Things have been set in motion...Jen Ryette: Ya mean Dathyn? He ain't Judy-kun anymore, silly burr. He's da spooky Dafyn who's come ta send real obvious messages at ya... and steal yer boats and hoes.Cera: Oh no, not my boats...She rolls her eyes, continuing to make her way down the hall. She turns a corner, then walks diagonally toward a specific dressing room. She pauses at it and glances coolly over at her manager...Cera: Perhaps the gears that have begun to turn will lead to HIS Merciless Demise... hm?Jen Ryette: Hmmm... I ain't really sure what you're aimin' at there, Cera...Cera: And that just pisses you off, doesn't it?Cera grins rather mischievously, before knocking swiftly on the door, six repetitive knocks. As she does this, she murmurs more to herself than anything...Cera: Brett and those Japs can wait. I have to keep the clock ticking, dammit...There's some shuffling from within the room, but no one comes to the door. We see Cera's left eye twitch slightly, and she raps on that door again, speaking in a clear tone...Cera: Calm... Efficient... Relentless... Assault. I'm about to lay that on your f-bleep!-ing ass if you don't open this damn door right NOW!Her scowl suddenly turns to a rather startled expression when the door quietly slides open. Inside is too dark to see, and suddenly the Baddest Bitch is yanked forward and inside the room in a violent manner! The door slams before Jen can run in too, and she steps back, bewildered. Ryette looks around, then jiggles the door handle. But it's obviously been locked, and possibly even jammed shut. The usually excitable look dissipates into a much darker one, as she steps back... then turns and starts to walk away, pulling out her phone. The last thing we hear, as the scene fades out, is Jen's icy voice...Jen Ryette: I MADE those gears... making them turn ain't your job..... |

Quest for The Case Qualifer- LAST SPOT!
Keisha Britely vs Ace Watson vs Chris Mosh
Ruby Parvati: We're back and... that was an, uh, interesting turn of events...Axel Reid: Let's hope we find out if things went alright later on. But for now, we have to stay focused for this next fight!Jerry Heisenberg: The following bout is a Quest for the Case Qualifier match scheduled for one fall! First to the ring, he weighs in at 190lbs and stands at 5'10... hailing from Norwich, England... the Five Star Phenomenon... ACE WATSON!!!"Liebe Ist Fuer Alle Da" by Rammstein (Instrumental) begins to play, and Ace Watson steps out from behind the curtain. A spotlight fixes onto Watson as he steps out from behind the curtain at a quick, determined pace, wearing his wrestling attire with a black hooded jacket on top, the hood up over his head. He stops at the top of the ramp and looks up at the ring, a stern, focused look on his face. As the beat in the music slows down a little, he begins to walk down the ramp, again at a fast pace, he walks round to the corner of the ring and walk up the steel steps. Ace stops for a moment stood next to the ring post and knocks the hood off of his head.Watson steps onto the ring apron and enters the ring under the top rope. He stands in the center of the ring for a moment as the lights steadily go back to their original brightness, and he takes in the noise from the crowd. “The Five Star Phenomenon” then walks over to the far ring post and climbs to the top rope, where he gives the crowd an almost disapproving look, then takes his jacket off and throws it ringside. Stepping down and back into the ring his attention turns to the entrance ramp, waiting for his opponents to come out.Jerry Heisenberg: Next to the ring, weighing in at 122lbs and standing at 5'3... she hails from Miami, Florida... KEISHA BRITELY!!!'Never Say Never' begins playing as Keisha Britely makes her way to the top of the entranceway with a smile across her face. Keisha begins walking to the ring, walking to the right side barricades to embrace the fans, then cutting over to the left barricades to embrace those fans as well. When she's 100 feet away from the ring, she begins a light sprint, sliding under the bottom rope and into the ring ready to compete.Ruby Parvati: Please tell me I'm not the only one who wants to kick her in the face...Axel Reid: I don't know, Ace looks plenty willing...Ruby Parvati: ... now if only he was willing to do something else. Particularly with, or to, me...Axel Reid: NEXT COMPETITOR!Jerry Heisenberg: And last to the ring, weighing in at 195lbs whilst standing at 6'3... hailing from Las Vegas, Nevada... the Party Boy CHRIS MOSH!!!“Watch Me” by Zendaya and Bella Thorne hits as Chris Mosh slow comes out behind the curtain with a purple hoody on that says Mosh on the back in pink and the hood over his head as he is bobbing his head to the beat of the music.Mosh stops at the top of the Ramp still bobbing his head. Then he looks around from the top of the ramp and starts to walk down theramp giving fives to people at ringside. He walks around the ring giving fives to everyone at ringside. Once he goes around the whole ring he goes to the steps and walks up them and stands on the apron as he then jumps over the ropes and spins into the middle of the ring. He then takes of the hood as he smirks at the camera, before turning toward his two opponents...Ruby Parvati: Are we prepared for this?Axel Reid: For what?Ruby Parvati: This absolute clusterf-bleep- that is about to unfold.....DING DING DING!!!The bell sounds off to signal the start of the match, and immediately Ace is bursting forward, right toward Keisha! She ducks away from him, stumbling back, only for Mosh to come from behind and German suplex her out of nowhere! She lands hard on the mat, and Watson turns back to face the other man in the match.Chris grins at his foe, gesturing for him to come over. The fans cheer Mosh on, and Watson shrugs before heading over. He goes for a swift clothesline, which Mosh easily dodges. But Ace smirks and suddenly whirls around with a roundhouse kick before the other man can even react! The crowd turns to boos, as we see Watson then calmly pull Mosh back up and start hitting him with a chain of punches. They're fast and repetitive, and are starting to knock Chris backward. Axel Reid: Ace has already garnered control here. His fast chain of punches seem to be doing their work, wearing Mosh down. Ruby Parvati: Indeed. And meanwhile, it looks as though Keisha is up, but she seems like she's simply watching the men go at it...Axel Reid: That might be the best course of action for someone as green as she is...As Chris is backs up into a corner, he glances around, only to see Keisha looking over curiously. He gives her a look, and she nods and comes running over with a dropkick! But Ace suddenly spins himself out of the way, making Britely make brutal contact with Mosh!!! The fans boo, mostly at Ace's tactic, as Keisha turns toward her foe in frustration.Watson goes to strike HER with a punch now, but Keisha ducks away from it! The fans do a 180 and start cheering, as the smaller woman looks surprised herself at what she just did. Ace, however, simply continues forward... this time with a forearm attempt. But this proves useless as Keisha dodges that as well! She runs around her opponent, watching his movements, before quickly popping up a dropkick! It sends Ace backwards, and Keisha keeps forward, jumping up with a spinning heel kick!Ruby Parvati: What just happened?!Axel Reid: Keisha has got momentum going. She's obviously been studying and training since the last time we've seen her, and it's showing!Britely moves outside the nearby ropes and waits a second for Ace to recover, then utilizes them to jump off for a springboard tornado DDT!! The crowd is going wild at the move!!! And Keisha goes to cover her foe!1 . . .2-NO!!!Ruby Parvati: Well of course Ace got a shoulder up. He wouldn't lose that easily!Axel Reid: Yeah, but Keisha's on a roll right now!Rolling back up, Keisha moves quickly to the nearest turnbuckle and climbs atop. Balancing there a moment, she notices the fans starting to chant her name. She waves at them, then starts pumping them up a bit with a big smile. As she's doing this, though, Chris Mosh has recovered and is slithering over! He knocks her down so that her legs are balancing on the ropes, and he holds her there, before hitting a rope-hung DDT!The crowd isn't sure whether to cheer or boo at this turn of events, but Ace, who is now standing, doesn't really seem to care at this point. He heads right over to Mosh, who notices this before he drops for the cover on Keisha. Chris hurriedly goes to catch Watson, but the other man simply whips out a brutal European uppercut that has Mosh seeing stars!Ruby Parvati: Uh oh. Looks like Ace means business...Mosh has stumbled back, dazed, and Ace is moving forward again... but Chris shakes off the cobwebs and scrambles away from the predicament! He falls back, still trying to brush off the attack from his foe, as Watson simply turns around and glances at the stirring Keisha, then back at Chris. Without much thought to it, Mosh swiftly bursts forward and chop blocks the other man! Ace falls to the mat, and the Party Boy rolls back up to his feet, looking quite proud of himself!Axel Reid: Wow! All three of these competitors are working to win this chance!Ruby Parvati: Indeed. But only one can be the victor.As Ruby says this, Keisha, having recovered, suddenly comes out of nowhere and pops a strong kick right into the stomach of Mosh! As the startled man is doubled over, Britely runs to the ropes, comes off them, and returns with a jumping kick to the back of her foe's head!! The fans give a slightly mixed reaction, though mostly cheers, at South Beach Slice!!! However, before she can move to cover the Party Boy, Watson has recovered from earlier and comes bursting out of nowhere with a powerful clothesline that sends Keisha to the mat! As the young woman is momentarily laid out, Ace then drags a dizzy but stirring Mosh back to his feet and moves behind him. He ignores the negativity from the fans and locks his foe's arms, looking around a moment with a confident smirk, before expertly hitting a brutal spinning impaler!!!Axel Reid: ACE OF BLADES!!! And beautifully executed at that! There's the cover!!!1 . . .Ruby Parvati: It looks like Keisha's back in the action! She's climbing to the nearest top rope!2 . . .Axel Reid: She's jumped off of the turnbuckle!!!3!!!BAM!!!DING DING DING!!!Axel Reid: Keisha landed atop both men and broke it up a MOMENT TOO LATE!! Ruby Parvati: You snooze, you lose, Axel. And Ace proved to be the most awake in this match!Axel Reid: A hard fought bout from all three competitors, but it looks like Five Star Phenomenon edged out the victory! Congratulations!Jerry Heisenberg: The winner, moving on to the Quest for the Case Qualifier match at Heatstroke.... ACE WATSON!!! |

Boiling Pot of Noodles
“I Won’t Back Down” by Burn Halo fills the arena. Immediately, Jones strides out from the back. He has a microphone in his hand and forgoes his normal theatrics on the way to the ring.Axel Reid: Patrick does not look like he is in a good mood. The normally jovial wrestler must have something on his mind.Ruby Parvati: The fact he lost the Zero Gravity title without even one successful defense can’t help. Maybe he’ll actually be entertaining when he’s pissed off.Jones runs up the steps and ducks quickly under the top rope. He quickly raises the microphone to his lips and opens his mouth to speak but pauses with his mouth open before dropping the mic and re-closing his mouth. He takes a deep breath and looks around as the music fades.
Axel Reid: Now he seems a bit hesitant. Maybe he is re-thinking whatever he was going to say.Ruby Parvati: I bet he’s just going to pus…Patrick Jones: I cannot believe what happened on Breakthrough 28! I cannot believe that Visionaries of Wrestling is okay with what happened! This company is founded on integrity, and they now have a champion who is supposed to represent the future of this company yet clearly has no integrity!Jones pauses his diatribe without lowering the microphone. The camera pans over to a somewhat shocked Ruby and Axel. Ruby’s mouth is still open since she had been cut off mid-word. The view cuts back to PJ in the ring, and he has moved from the center of the ring to lean on the ropes near the fans. He looks to have calmed down a bit, having gotten those things off his chest.Patrick Jones: Look, Lexi won. She beat me. I am not asking for the referee to overturn his decision. I don’t even want Ryan Omega to discipline the ref or change the ruling of the match. It’s just disconcerting to me that nothing has really even been said about the match’s ending. I love the ideals that VoW represents. I just want to see those ideals upheld.Patrick takes a deep breath as some fans applaud.Patrick Jones: But ya know what, maybe it’s time that someone really steps up. Management HAS done a fairly good job of controlling the roster, but we still have The Orphanage running wild, the new Zero Gravity champ taking liberty with genitals, and everybody else like Carson, Cera, and Behringer. Yeah…this place is screwed up. Welcome to wrestling, right? This is no comic book. Honesty and the good ol’ American spirit don’t always win.PJ pushes up from the ropes, turning to walk a quarter-circle around the ring to look down at the announce table.Patrick Jones: You probably hate this, don’t you, Ruby? Integrity bores you, doesn’t it? You’d rather seem someone like Carson parade around how he is God’s gift to wrestling, wouldn’t you? You always hated guys like myself and Slater.Jones stops for a second to laugh at the comparison.Patrick Jones: Okay, so I have not ever won a World title or been on top of the wrestling world as a whole or anything else great like Slater. I did main event VoW’s biggest PPV to date though, and I won a title while doing it too. So that was cool. Does that entertain you, Ruby?The camera pans around behind Jones and looks over his shoulder at the announce table. Axel looks like he is enjoying this more than a bit. Ruby is glaring up at PJ, but she surprisingly bites her tongue, most likely since the people in the arena would not be able to hear her anyway.Patrick Jones: My un-Slater-like accomplishments in the ring aside, we tended to agree on how things should be done. He just happened to actually get them done while I struggled with little major success. So why not keep up the struggle? Why not fight the one fight I know that I cannot win? Because it’s the right thing to do. That’s enough for me. Why throw myself out here as a target? Because I have never been scared of having a target on my back, front, or anywhere else. I just wish that I had seen that my crotch had a target on them while I fought Lexi.The joke brings some laughter from the crowd while PJ looks a bit pained and perturbed, shifting uncomfortably in the ring.Patrick Jones: But speaking of Slater has brought me to one man who I can’t believe I missed earlier. Seth Iser. I had a bit of a meeting with Mr. Iser prior to my match with Zhong. He did not seem too confident in my abilities to win the match or to handle the event correctly. He proved to be underestimating me then. Yet, he’s the one always saying how we must respect him because of his history in this business. Seth, that’s great, but as I said, I respect your work in the ring, but you are one of the leading problems outside of it. You want to talk about the greatness of the business we work in and are going after Stacy Jones for a stupid comment she made in the spur of the moment. So why can’t you just get your sh-- together? Why can’t YOU respect this business enough to do things the right way?“Define ‘right’ then Patrick.”The familiar rasp from one man is enough to get a decent chunk of the audience to boo. Soon enough, dressed immaculately in a black and blue suit limps out Seth Iser and even every movement he makes is very labored. It’s obvious he’s still favoring the ribs that could be cracked, bruised or even broken after the warhammer shot. He has a microphone in his hand but every motion again...makes it obvious that even his master poker face can’t hide every bit of pain he’s enduring. The type of pain that even made him...unable to compete this evening. But he’s still projecting his usual brand of intimidation even through his wounds.Seth Iser: At ease. I’m in no...condition to fight nor can anyone fight me when I’m not cleared for that matter...but if you’re going to speak my name...I’d rather you say it to me directly. Besides, I do have a question. Define right. Right to you, anyhow.Iser winces as he crosses his arms on the stage, content to just stay where he’s at. Jones calmly acknowledges the man he had called out.Patrick Jones: Seth, it’s simple. The ‘right’ thing is acting with integrity and honesty. It’s about not manipulating people or using underhanded tactics to win. It is about standing toe-to-toe with your opponent and settling your issues in the ring without running away.
Iser raises his eyebrow for a minute before he just sneers at a particular audience member shouting verbal abuse in his direction that would have to be...bleeped out.Seth Iser: Then I did the right thing by your definition in airing my grievances for how Stacy’s failed to prioritize what it means to be a champion. No manipulation. No sneak attacks. Just giving people what they deserve.The audience boos Iser’s answer to Patrick’s definition but this doesn’t phase the larger man. In fact he’s just eerily calm throughout all of this.Seth Iser: Pat whether you realize it or not I don’t have Slater’s laundry list of accomplishments even if we’re often compared...but I do know what the hell it means to have a chance and hold the World Heavyweight Title before. And this has nothing to do with her ability in the ring but when you’re about to wrestle a match against someone who has busted his ass for ten long years in this industry...wouldn’t it be disrespectful to the trainers that broke you in...to everyone who came before you and to those who uphold the traditions of wrestling...to focus more on getting drunk on your birthday and not represent the championship she was wearing at the time? And then...to prove that her apology was B.S. get herself involved in this love triangle affair when she should’ve been focusing more on her task at hand? That’s the biggest reason why I was upset at her inclusion. And I don’t apologize for what’s in my heart and in my gut because...if you don’t follow what goes on in your own brain...then that would violate...my definition of right. And that’s doing what you have to do to uphold and protect what’s dear to you while providing for yourself. You can only look after you after all.Patrick Jones: Seth, we’re still people. You know that as well as anyone. You aren’t as invincible as you used to be. Would I suggest going out partying so close to a big match? No, but I’m the boring guy according to certain personalities on this show. And ya know what? People screw up. I am no advocate for being perfect. So what if Stacy made some in her personal life? You aren’t the judge, jury, and executioner. Hell, by your definition of right, Stacy did nothing wrong. If it is all tied to personal intuition, what if drinking away your problems is someone’s idea of therapy? Who are you to judge her on her persona opinion of right?Seth Iser: And who are you to judge mine when she’s clearly wrong for being responsible for being another reason why people outside our great sport mock us and rob us of our prestige when those type of actions effect every one of us with-in the industry and everybody who buys a damn ticket? Her actions constantly have been damaging. That affects ALL of us, Patrick. Not just me. Not just her. Not just you. Everyone. From Frei down to the poor men who do the grunt work setting up the ring. Being in this industry is a privilege not a right...and she doesn’t know that with how she taints the shield. And seven years ago, if I looked at my past self I would’ve said the same thing to him. So why would you reward someone who time and time again has given fuel to our biggest critics and smear all of our names through the damn mud?Iser lets out a grunt of obvious pain, wincing just moving and talking. It’s taking much of his energy to speak even.
Seth Iser: I know damn well that many times in my own past...I haven’t done the right thing by this industry. And if it means me being forced out in a violent way to pay for my actions Patrick...then so be it. If not being able to compete for the World Visionary Championship...something I’d long to achieve...then that’s my penance. But as long as I’m here...I’m going to help this company and this industry in any way I can. And one way I can help in part...is making sure that woman doesn’t win a championship she doesn’t deserve because she’ll continue to taint the industry going down her path especially in a day and age where social media covers every damn thing.Jones tilts his head a bit and looks at Iser skeptically.Patrick Jones: Maybe this will be a definition you can appreciate: what would a child think of my actions? No, little kids do not understand complex topics, but they do have an incredible sense of right and wrong, don’t they? But…are you trying to apologize?The idea that Seth Iser is apologizing or even getting close to doing so seems to have totally disarmed Jones. He looks stunned and confused while still clearly suspicious.Even with the pain that’s obvious on Iser’s face...it’s almost impossible to entirely tell what he’s thinking through his often seen poker face. It doesn’t lighten up any nor does he commit one way or another.Seth Iser: Part of being right...my definition of right, is accepting the consequences of your actions. These are mine. No more, no less. Once kids get to a certain age, this is a concept most will understand and my daughter does know it. There’s consequences to everything you do. Stacy’s going to get hers just like I’ve gotten mine. Hell, I don’t even think English has started to get his for attempting to endanger every single one of us when he made his short sighted attempt to just be handed the World Visionary Title. Now, everything you ever do...comes back around to you...and the Orphanage as a whole should be aware of that since I have little doubt...they came up with the idea to take me out of the picture.Iser’s face darkens slightly while mentioning that.Seth Iser: But so be it. I’ll deal with what happened there as I deem fit. But you do what you deem is right considering you did get kicked between the legs and lost your championship before you could enjoy it...and I’ll do what I deem is right in regards to both what just happened to me...what others have done in the company and my own championship aspirations. After all...as you’ve already indirectly pointed out and what we’ve proven...what’s right...is subjective. But I’ve said my piece. You’ve probably said yours. It wouldn’t be right to continue this conversation at the expense of the wrestling so I’m taking my leave since...well I’m not cleared to wrestle.Iser mouths off an obvious grunt of pain moving...even the adrenaline rush of speaking to the live audience here is causing his rib injury to flare up. Every movement is painful as he takes a couple steps toward the curtain without taking his eyes off of PJ. Jones just shakes his head slightly.Patrick Jones: That’s fine, Seth. Do what you think is right, but listen to your own words. And try not to slink away from justice if it comes your way like you did the one time we went one-on-one.Patrick tosses his microphone away, focusing his eyes on the curtain as if Iser is not even there, already focused in on his upcoming match with Big Boss Hogg. |

Big Boss Hogg vs Patrick Jones
As Patrick is still in the ring, we see Jerry preparing to announce his opponent...Jerry Heisenberg: Next is a man standing at 6'7 and weighing in tonight at 308lbs... he hails from Blackwell, Texas... BIG BOSS HOGG!!!The opening chords to "The Bomber" echo through the PA system. The curtain parts as the large figure of Big Boss Hogg moves through the curtain. He flips his long hair up over his bandana and pats on his leather vest with numerous faded patches.Big Boss Hogg walks towards the ring at a medium pace, cracking his knuckles by tightening his fists. When reaching the ring he grabs onto the top rope, pulling himself onto the apron. Big Boss Hogg pushes the top rope down with both hands to step one leg over, then brings the other in. Big Boss Hogg paces the ring, stopping in the middle to face the hard camera and raise his fists high into the air along with nodding silently while looking dead ahead. As his music dies down, he moves into the corner to remove his bandana and leather vest, taking great care with each as he hands them to an attendant outside of the ring. Ruby Parvati: Well this will certainly be, uh, interesting...Axel Reid: You don't sound too sure.Ruby Parvati: It's hard to use the word 'interesting' in reference to Patrick Jones. Big Boss will squash the poor man.Axel Reid: I firmly believe our ex-champ can hold his own!DING DING DING!!!The bell suddenly tolls to signal the start of the match! Immediately Hogg goes for a right hand, but Patrick easily dodges! He then whirls around for a roundhouse kick, sending Big Boss stumbling! But Hogg catches himself, shakes it off, and turns back toward his foe.Patrick now bolts over for a running knee strike, which connects, but as Hogg is doubling over, he grabs the smaller man and suddenly headbutts him!!! The fans start booing, a few gasps heard, as Big Boss then goes to belly to belly suplex the now dizzy Patrick!Ruby Parvati: Like a bug.Axel Reid: The match has only just started, Ruby. And it's already a bit back and forth...As PJ lands on his back after the suplex, we see Hogg drag him back up, before holding his neck!! He lifts the other man up for a chokeslam, but before he can execute it, Patrick struggles out of it, landing on the mat before swiftly hitting an enziguri in retort!! The fans now start cheering, as PJ backs away, rubbing his neck.Hogg recovers from the attack right as Patrick has come off the ropes and is heading back! He bounds up for a jumping DDT! The execution is flawless, and Big Boss is on the mat!!!Axel Reid: The fans seem happy about this turn of events! This match may just be in Patrick's favor now!!We see Jones go up to the turnbuckle, and he pauses there, pandering to the fans a bit. The crowd loves it, and he grins, then jumps off the turnbuckle for his diving elbow drop! But Big Boss rolls over at the last minute!! PJ mostly makes contact with the mat, barely nicking his foe!!!Ruby Parvati: And THAT has GOT to hurt...Axel Reid: Luckily a small part of Hogg broke his fall.Ruby Parvati: Small and Hogg do not belong in the same sentence....We see Patrick rolling, feeling the effects of the botched elbow drop. Meanwhile Hogg slowly moves to his feet, still feeling that DDT. He shakes off the cobwebs though and leans down to grab his opponent, dragging him up and slinging him into the nearest corner! Big Boss then starts heading over...But PJ makes one last attempt at gaining control, going for a spinning back kick... and it connects! However the way Hogg stumbles makes him fall right into the referee! As soon as this happens, with both of them distracted, Hogg checking on the ref... in comes someone that has the fans booing! Beck Ramsey moves quickly, rolling into the ring with a steel pipe in hand! He swiftly whips it into a startled Patrick's head!! Blood already starts to ooze out of the wound as Ramsey hops out of the ring right as the ref recovers. Both him and Hogg stare at the downed PJ in bewilderment, as Beck keeps out of sight, and the Big Boss decides to take advantage of this situation nonetheless. He gets up on the middle rope, the crowd's boos only growing, before he hits his splash, the BOSS BOMB!!!DING DING DING!!!Ruby Parvati: Looks like the Boss has done it!Axel Reid: Not on his own accord... and he hasn't even realized who's behind this, either!Ruby Parvati: Nonetheless, the victory is still his! Congratulations!Jerry Heisenberg: The winner via pinfall... BIG BOSS HOGG!!! |

Hogg's Kryptonite
As the referee raises Big Boss Hogg’s hand up in victory, unbeknownst to Hogg, Beck Ramsey is standing outside the ring with a microphone in hand. He has a rather amused grin on his face as he speaks.Beck Ramsey: Such dominance by such a mammoth of a man. Draw me impressed. You’re welcome by the way.His voice draws Big Boss Hogg’s attention as The Master of the Macabre motions toward Patrick Jones’ prone, bloodied body. Hogg’s eyes turn toward his opponent to look at him before glaring back at Beck Ramsey on the outside who has a devious grin on his face. Beck Ramsey: You don’t seem to be too happy that you now realize that you needed my help to put an end to that former paper champion. I get the feeling that you want to… rip me apart, don’t you? Someone give this man a microphone! I want to hear what he has to say.As the referee helps Patrick Jones out of the ring, one of the techies walks up beside the ring with a microphone and hands it in to Big Boss Hogg.Beck Ramsey: If you lift it to your mouth, puppet, it projects your voice throughout the arena. Go ahead. Give it a try.Big Boss Hogg just stares at the microphone being held out towards him. Beck Ramsey: You can try to beat people down all day long, but when it comes time to say something into the microphone, you just can’t do it. I guess I have found your Kryptonite, Superman. Oh, scratch that about beating people down. As I recall, a little 95-pounder brought the beat down to you, didn’t she?At this point, Big Boss Hogg raises the microphone to his lips and goes to speak, but when he does, the sound doesn’t project throughout the arena so his words are completely inaudible. Meanwhile, on the outside, Beck Ramsey is laughing his ass off at his nemesis.Beck Ramsey: Well, isn’t that just unfortunate? Just remember, after I am finished with you, big buddy, you will be wearing a mask just like Ace Watson does now except yours will crimson and be created from your very own blood.With that, Ramsey drops the microphone and begins walking around the ring to exit, but Big Boss Hogg hustles out of the ring to cut him off at the pass. The two men begin going toe-to-toe. At first, Big Boss Hogg gains the upperhand, but Ramsey catches him with a thumb to the eye then begins backing Hogg off with shots of his own.As the two men take turns trading shots, the VoW security guards spill out onto the scene; pulling the two men apart. Each team of security guards takes a couple of casualties at the hands of both men as they attempt to claw their way through the sea of security guards to get back to one another, but no such thing happens as security backs Big Boss Hogg up the ramp screaming and yelling at the security to let him go so he can finish the job. Meanwhile, Beck Ramsey seems rather subdued already as he lifts his hands, showing the security that he doesn’t intend to cause anymore harm. That is, until, he seems one of the security guards he knocked out rising to his feet. He suddenly sprints off in the opposite direction and catches the security guard perfectly on the jaw with a HorrorShow Highlight Heel! This time security guards tackle him down and begin to restrain him with whatever they may have. In this case, a set of zip-ties. The whole time, The Master of the Macabre is just laughing his head off as the scene cuts to a commercial break... |

Cameron Behringer vs Dathyn
The arena goes black as a single spotlight cascades down onto the ramp. The lights stay off as Emma Browning's "Sweet Dreams” plays throughout the arena. Jerry Heisenberg: The following match is scheduled for one fall, and introducing first,About thirty seconds into the song, Dathyn walks out, wearing a sweatshirt with the hood up and a Bo staff on his back. Jerry Heisenberg: From a land long forgotten, weighing in at 195lbs and standing at six foot, two inches tall, “The Kakhard”… Dathyn!Dathyn continues towards the ring, paying very little attention to the fans. When the 'screaming' in the music occurs, the lights begin frantically flashing, but then default after. Dathyn walks up the steps and jumps over the ropes before standing on the ring ropes and taking off his hood, staring into the distance. He then takes a coin out of his pocket and flips it before cracking a grin and taking a knee.The lights throughout the arena begin to flash as the sound of static and high pitched beeping overtakes the calm arena. On the screen, an empty asylum room comes into focus in black and white. The camera zooms in toward the vacant bed as a whiny scream and pounding drums replace the harsh sounds. “I’m not a monster. I’m just a sick man who would give anything to have his soul back.”The lyrics, shrieking over the dissonant chords and the repetitive pounding, repeat as Cameron Behringer steps through the speakers and makes his way onto the stage. On the screen, the empty room has been replaced with visions of rubble; The post-apocalyptic scenery changes and fades with the music. Cameron’s head swivels to look at both sides of the crowd, his eyes are half-shut as if in a haze. “I feel it in my blood now. It’s turned me. It’s turning me.”This buildup continues in this fashion as Cameron stalks down ramp. His gait is slow and methodical, but his balance seems offset. The buildup reaches its climax as the vocalist screams.
“It’s turning me!”All of the lights go off simultaneously. A breakdown begins as scenes of graves and bones violently flash upon the screen. “You better lock the doors and run.You better lock the doors and run.”When the lights return to the arena, Cameron stands upon the apron, wide eyed and staring directly into the ring. Jerry Heisenberg: And his opponent, from Tampa, Florida, weighing in at exactly 200lbs and standing six foot and two inches tall, Cameron Behringerrrr!Cameron tilts his head to the side, his expression one of madness. He steps between the ropes and glare sat the referee.Axel Reid: I’m excited for this one, two very exciting competitors in the ring!Ruby Parvati: More weirdo’s more like. The referee finished laying down the rules of the match with the two men in the ring, before signalling for the bell to be rung.DING DING DING!Behringer and Dathyn step away from their respective corners, moving closer to each other and circling the ring. They close the gap between them completely when they lock up in the centre of the ring.
Axel Reid: These are two very evenly matched wrestlers physically, it will be interesting to see who takes the upper hand here.Behringer hits Dathyn with a knee to the mid-section, then follows that up with a forearm to the side of the Kakhard’s head. Dathyn stumbles back briefly and responds with a punch of his own which Cameron blocks and uses the opening to clothesline Dathyn, sending him down to the mat hard. Axel Reid: Looks like Cameron Behringer is the one who will be controlling this match for the time being!Ruby Parvati: Shame he can’t control his hair, have you seen the state of it?!?Dathyn begins to get back to his feet before Behringer can launch his next attack, but not quick enough to get himself stood up straight and ready to fend off Behringer’s kick to the stomach and proceeding Irish whip sending him into the corner.
Cameron charges shoulder first at Dathyn, who was less than a second too late to realise and Behringer connects. Axel Reid: If Dathyn had looked up just a moment before, he could have avoided that spear and we could have seen the tables turn completely.Behringer takes a step back for a second from the downed Dathyn. He cracks his neck and then goes back for his opponent. Grabbing Dathyn by the head, he pulls the man to his feet. Dathyn catches Behringer with the element of surprise and throws a few quick punches at Cameron, who slightly startled takes a few steps back to try and avoid the strikes. Dathyn hits a quick DDT to Behringer whose head collides with the mat at a force. Axel Reid: There’s the switch in momentum I was talking about!Ruby Parvati: Can you see into the future or something?Dathyn makes his way back to his feet and drags Behringer up too, before sending him back down with a belly to belly suplex. Dathyn covers!1…
2…!Kickout!Axel Reid: I think it’s going to take a little more than that to keep Behringer down. Behringer sits up as Dathyn locks in a headlock. Behringer reaches out his arm for the ropes but he is too far away, instead he tries fighting the grip against his neck and pull Dathyn’s arm free. Which almost works until Dathyn tightens the hold. Axel Reid: Behringer trying to wriggle his way out of the hold, but Dathyn is having none of it!Cameron starts to try and work his way back to his feet, but before he can get himself into a position where he can work an offense, Dathyn switches up the hold and goes to hit his opponent with a German suplex, Behringer realising he’s in trouble leans forward and pulls Dathyn up and across his shoulder. Both men get up to their feet quickly and turn to face each other. Circling the ring briefly once again they then meet in the centre and lock up. Ruby Parvati: And we’re back to square one again…Dathyn pushes Behringer into the corner, and the referee breaks up the lock. Dathyn takes a few steps back and raises his hands as if to appear innocent. Behringer uses this to his advantage and launches himself towards his opponent and hits a double forearm smash to the head of Dathyn, who goes down to the mat hard.Behringer covers!1…2…Kickout!Axel Reid: Close from Behringer!Behringer, slightly frustratingly gets up and pulls Dathyn up too. Cameron throws a forearm at Dathyn who blocks it and pushes Behringer back to get a bit of distance between them momentarily before charging forward and hitting a strong clothesline. Behringer gets back up quickly but is met with a snapmare from Dathyn, who quickly covers once again!1…2…3? Kickout!Axel Reid: Even closer this time from Dathyn! Behringer is going to need to really step up if he wants to win this!Dathyn pulls Cameron up to his feet and hits him with a knife edge chop to the chest, prompting an audible reaction from the crowd. After three chops he kicks Behringer in the mid section and hits a double arm lock DDT. Dathyn takes a few moments longer before attempting to cover the downed Behringer this time, who quickly reverses the pin attempt with a roll up of his own!Axel Reid: Behringer with the pin out of nowhere!!1…!2…!3???NO!KICKOUT!Both competitors quickly get to their feet, Behringer swings a right hook at Dathyn who ducks under, goes behind Cameron and rolls him up for his own surprise pin!Axel Reid: Again! From nothing!1!!!2!!!3??KICKOUT!Ruby Parvati: It’s Behringer’s turn now, right?Dathyn and Cameron get up quickly, and almost instantly Behringer hits Dathyn with a solid clothesline. Just as he’s about to go for another pin attempt, he spots Lexi Pearl walking down the ramp carrying the Zero Gravity Championship on her shoulder. Ruby Parvati: It’s Lexi Pearl!Axel Reid: It looks like she wants to get a good view of her next opponent, Cameron Behringer who will be facing her for the championship at Heatstroke!Ruby Parvati: Actually, I think she wants Behringer to get a good look at her…Lexi Pearl is now pulling seductive poses outside the ring, staring directly at Behringer, who seems un-amused. By this point, Dathyn is groggy, but almost standing. Behringer quickly turns back to him and hits him with a release belly to belly suplex sending Dathyn into the turnbuckles and tumbling down to the mat, landing hard. Behringer pulls Dathyn away from the corner and covers,1!!!2!!!3???KICKOUT!!!!Axel Reid: It looked certain that Behringer had him there!!Ruby Parvati: Lexi needs to work on her distraction techniques.Behringer sits up, shocked. It is then that he sees Lexi Pearl, stood on the ring apron opposite him. She is holding the Zero Gravity Championship in her hand, and she starts raising it slowly and tauntingly above her head. This time Pearl has got Cameron’s attention. He stands up quickly and starts heading over to her, before Dathyn gets back to his feet and grabs hold of Behringer’s arms, spinning round and executing the Lazarus Bullet!!!Dathyn covers!1!!!2!!!3!!! DING DING DING!!!!Ruby Parvati: He’s done it!Jerry Heisenberg: The winner of this match, “the Kakhard,” Dathyn!!!A very smug and amused smile creeps on Lexi Pearls face as Dathyn’s hand is raised while Behringer lays flat out still on the mat.Axel Reid: Lexi Pearl with the distraction cost Behringer the match!!Ruby Parvati: I told you she needed to work on her distraction technique, she must have heard me.Axel: Well we look forward to seeing Behringer face Lexi Pearl at Heatstroke, but tonight Dathyn is victorious! |

A Coin Jams The Gears
The scene pans back into Dathyn's locker room. For a new comer, his locker room is rather well lit and filled with bags. However, there are only two people in his locker room, Dathyn and Cera. Dathyn is standing in his ring gear, bo staff in hand pacing around Cera who has her hands tied up while sitting on a steel chair
Dathyn: Well, Ms. Cera, you have found yourself in quite the sticky situation, I'd say. Believe me, of all the times I've thought of you tied up, it's never been under these circumstances. However, I'm glad you decoded my fairly simple message last week.
Cera: There wasn't much to decode. Thanks for turning on the lights, by the way. It was almost as dark as your sense of humor in here while you were gone.
Cera smirks slightly, eyes never leaving the man who'd tied her up.
Cera: How'd the match go, kid?
A smile crawls across Dathyn's face as he looks down at his old adversary. At this point, he is behind her, looking down before continuing to speak
Dathyn: Victoriously, unsurprisingly. You could say his demise was...I don't know, merciless?
Cera rolls her eyes and stares off into the distance.
Cera: You do realize how lame that is, don't you?
Dathyn: Well, we all can't have the dazzling sense of humor as you. I figured that was the best way to get your attention, however.
Cera: Attention gotten, as you wanted...
She scowls back at him, squirming slightly in her restraints.
Cera: And now I'm getting what I want at Heatstroke. Though I'm not sure our desires coincide...
Dathyn begins to pace around Cera until he circles her once and is by her face. He takes a knee and looks into her eyes
Dathyn: Cera, you look a tad bit uncomfortable. Not as uncomfortable as me, however. You see, that's the interesting thing. I heard about this Heatstroke nonsenese, and I'm not sure if it's the greatest idea. You see, Cera, we both wear masks, and we both have secrets. We are both two birds of the same feather. I don't want to fight you, Cera, I truly don't. I like you. I want you to join me. This fed needs to be cleansed, and no matter how many times I hit the shake weight, I will never be strong enough to carry this place on my back alone.
Cera: You've got a funny way of showing all that, Dathyn...
She lifts an eyebrow, then glances at the chair as though to point out her restraints.
Dathyn: Well, you see, I had to take precautions. You're what they call a "flight risk." Couldn't risk losing you. Plus, it's pretty funny seeing you all tied up.
Dathyn paces around the room chuckling to himself
Cera: Yep. Hysterical. Now untie me so we can talk like two, ah... adults.
Dathyn: All you had to do was ask, Cera. Despite not hearing the magic word, I'll bite.
Instead of undoing the knot, Dathyn takes out a pocket knife and cuts through the rope. As he does this, he pats Cera on the back who shudders and rolls her eyes, repulsed by his touch. Cera quickly hops to her feet and goes to pull out her own blade... only to find it isn't in the sheath she always has at her side. She tenses and looks around, before glowering over at the man in front of her.
Cera: Dathyn... you test my patience.
Dathyn holds Cera's blade in his hand before smiling and handing it back to her
Dathyn: Clearly, I also test your intellect, because why else would you still be here? You know, minus the fact that I tied you up. You are an extreme person, Cera, and I think that you will find my methods of persuasion are extreme as well. I can either be a blessing, or a curse.
Cera: You don't frighten me. You've dealt with Jen enough to know how she is. And what she has and can do. However, both you and her don't seem to realize what I'M capable of. I'm not some puppet for you two to mindf-bleep!-.
Dathyn: I know I don't frighten you, and I shouldn't. How could I ever expect to frighten you? I just want you to know that there are still things for me to take away from you. I'm trying to appeal to your reasonability. If you join me, who will be able to stop us? No one.
Cera: I agree, to an extent. But there's nothing with much value that you can take from me, to use against me if I refuse.
She eyes her knife calmly, before almost lovingly placing it back into it's sheath. After a moment, her cold eyes pierce Dathyn's...
Cera: You know me. I like games. If you show me you can play... perhaps I'll consider your offer.
Dathyn's eyes move from Cera's feet to her eyes before locking. Instead of a cold response, Dathyn smiles and scratches his chin before moving towards the door
Dathyn: Well, as exemplified by this whole experience, I too enjoy games. You're making a grave mistake, and I don't want to have to harm you. But perhaps this is what it will take in order for you to see what must be done. Soon, you will have lived your last day in ignorance and will join me. And then, you will thank me.
Cera now starts toward the door as well, keeping a good foot between herself and Dathyn.
Cera: Mm... well, I'll just have to use any tactic I can to ah... win... this game, now won't I?
She smirks as Dathyn opens the door... only to see an impatient Jen to be standing there with a frown, tapping her cellphone against her hip repeatedly. Dathyn glances over to Jen before sauntering over to her and putting his hand on her face behind her ear. He pulls a coin out and mouths the word: "Magic" before pressing it in Jen's hand, his finger lingering in her palm. Dathyn glances over at Cera and smiles
Dathyn: As will I
The bewildered Jen is seen staring down at the coin, and Cera moves forward and suddenly snatches it out of her palm. She keeps it clenched tightly in her fist as she swiftly heads out of the room, her manager on her tail, as the scene fades on Dathyn watching them leave...
