We open to the VoW newsroom where we see both Joey Nitro and Zelda Lawson sitting behind the news desk, they both look into the camera with smiles on their faces as graphics displaying their names appear below them.
Joey Nitro
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Armed & Dangerous Pay-Per-View special edition of the Nitro/Lawson Report, with me, Joey Nitro and...I am pleased to announce that my co-anchor, the beautiful Zelda Lawson is back alongside me once again...
Nitro looks over to Lawson, smiling and pointing towards her.
Joey Nitro
Let me be the first to welcome you back Zelda, I can already see the rating for this show going back up now that the VoW faithful have a pretty face to look at once again...
Lawson smiles as she looks over to Nitro, her arm in a sling being noticeable among her scratches on her face.
Zelda Lawson
Maybe not as pretty as I once was, but the wounds should all be healed in no time. It's definitely good to be back at this desk with you Joey, I can't tell you how much I missed doing this while laying at home recovering. And by the way, because I haven't told you yet, thank you Joey for the visit at the hospital, it was very much appreciated by both me and Tyler...
Joey Nitro
You’re more than welcome Zelda, I consider you more than just my co-anchor and it’s great to see you doing so well. So, before we get into the report, for the VoW faithful watching at home, can we get an update on the condition of yourself and your child?
You’re more than welcome Zelda, I consider you more than just my co-anchor and it’s great to see you doing so well. So, before we get into the report, for the VoW faithful watching at home, can we get an update on the condition of yourself and your child?
Zelda Lawson
Well for starters, definitely still dealing with the broken arm, that is beginning to heal up nicely along with the broken ribs, which have been stabilized as to not cause any issues with the baby. Also still a bit scratched up, but those are healing up great. And from my last appointment, my baby is doing fantastically, I guess I had a big hand from the man upstairs on my uterus during the attack that helped keep the baby safe, which I apologize I wasn't here last show when Tyler was also on so we could formally announce it to the VoW audience. But to let you all know at the moment, currently nine weeks into the pregnancy so as you can imagine, the excitement and fear is at maximum at the moment for me.
Joey Nitro
Indeed, I have two children myself as you know so I am well aware of what you are going through as my wife went through the same thing on two occasions. But, I am pleased to hear that it’s good news all round from you and no need to apologize for your absence as it was perfectly understandable...
He nods, smiling at Lawson before the camera cuts to Nitro as he looks up into the camera and a graphic depicting Casanova English with the World Visionary Championship raised high above his head.
Joey Nitro
Moving onto the news from Armed & Dangerous 2015 and we start with a historical moment when leader of The Orphanage, Casanova English captured the World Visionary Championship from Valquist to become the first ever two-time World Visionary Champion. The match was one that no member of the VoW faithful will ever forget as it was an extraordinary back and forth battle between two gladiators who thoroughly deserved to be involved in what was an amazing Main Event. Unfortunately, we at VoW would like to apologize to our VoW faithful for the issues we had with the airing of the match, we are working as hard as we can to fix it as quickly as possible so you may all get to watch it eventually, because trust me, even though the winner is already out of the bag, it’s still an unmissable match to say the very least...
The camera moves over to Lawson as the graphic changes to one of Scarlet Flint sitting with her back against the Wall of Woe with the I4NI Championship laying in her lap.
Zelda Lawson
Definitely hope we can get that problem with the recording fixed, that was a match nobody should be unable to see. And speaking of Main Events, the other Main Event of this huge Armed and Dangerous Pay-Per-View was the incredibly dangerous Wall of Woe match, as the...ever destructive "sweetheart", Scarlet Flint took on my always valiant knight, Tyler Storm for the I4NI Championship. To say this match was brutal is the understatement of the century, as these two competitors waged war on each other throughout this match, Scarlet with a full intent to rid the company of Tyler, while Tyler had revenge on his mind following the events that occurred at the Breakthrough before the Pay-Per-View involving Ms. Flint and...myself. But, after a hard fought match, Scarlet Flint managed to stand on top in the end as she came out victorious, and of course no one was surprised to see her take things too far in trying to win by cutting away the cord that powered the titantron to retrieve the title, and then of course the unnecessary post match attack she delivered to my husband afterwards...
Lawson breathes in for a moment, calming her nerves, before looking on one more time.
Zelda Lawson
But just to end this news I want to say personally to my husband, because I know he is watching, you fought so great in that match for me and for yourself, you did whatever you could and even through defeat I still am so proud of you and love you very much Tyler. And Scarlet...well, I'd hold up something to show what I want to say to you, but unlike yourself, I like to keep professional at my job.
Lawson delivers that last line with a very uncomfortable to look at smile as she darts a look over to Nitro as the camera cuts back to him and the graphic changes and this time it displays former GPW wrestler, Artemis Kaiser.
Joey Nitro
He indeed put up one Hell of a fight and I’m sure you’re not the only one who was impressed with the fight he gave for you and his Witnesses. Moving on however to something arguably as big as both our Main Events combined...after the unfortunate collapse of one of our affiliations, GPW, we ended up being introduced to one of the companies biggest stars, Artemis Kaiser. It’s amazing to see VoW continue to grow and grow daily and with the recent signing of the former West Coast Champion, this is sure to change the face of VoW in such a huge way, and I cannot wait to see her in action...
The camera cuts back to Lawson, the graphic now showing the VoW logo over the UK flag.
Zelda Lawson
And what an incredible time to be introduced to such a huge star in VoW, because another big thing that happened at Armed & Dangerous was the announcement of VoW participating in it's first ever European Tour, although it's a bit more of a United Kingdom tour, but I digress. VoW will be across the pond starting with Breakthrough 34 in Belfast, Northern Ireland on October 12th, and then a couple more Breakthrough stops in Cardiff, Wales and Edinburgh, Scotland before we arrive in Sheffield, England to end our tour with the Darkest Hour Pay-Per-View on November 23rd. And, to add to my excitement, I get to stay with some of my friends at mine and Tyler's summer home in London for a couple of months. I'm looking forward to being a part of this big moment for the Visionaries of Wrestling.
Cutting back to Nitro, he nods in agreement as the graphic changes to Ryder Blade clutching onto the Xcel title.
Joey Nitro
It’s certainly a testament on how huge this company has become an I cannot wait for this European Tour to begin. Back to the action now and in what was a highly anticipated match where many members of the VoW faithful expected to see a new champion crowned. After an amazing back and forth contest in a Submissions match for the Xcel title between challenger, Stacy Jones and champion, Ryder Blade, it was the champion who would come out on top, still Xcel Champion and still continuing his unbeaten streak. Love him or hate him, Ryder Blade proved that night that he is a deserving champion by managing to defeat a wrestler who has had years of submission experience compared to his few weeks of experience, and on top of that, he defeated her fairly as well...
The graphic shows Tyron Bickerton standing tall with the Zero Gravity Championship as the camera moves back to Lawson.
Zelda Lawson
It's a testament to how much Ryder has evolved, even I'll admit I was impressed by his showing, and you already know how I feel about Mr. Blade, Joey. And to go to another title match that occurred in the night, the fight that caught many people off guard following the injuries to both Brett Carson and Cameron Behringer. The VoW faithful were treated to an incredible contest between Tyron Bickerton and Zakk Morris with the vacant Zero Gravity Championship on the line. And the fans were very happy to see the uprising Tyron Bickerton come up through it all and stand up at the end of that match as our new 0G Champ, so big congrats to a good friend of mine and Tyler's. I expect Mr. Bickerton to be in some other title races in the near future.
The camera cuts back to Nitro and he nods in agreement as the graphic changes displaying an image of Matt Slater with his arm raised by the referee.
Joey Nitro
Indeed, he is certainly one to look at in the near future, that’s for sure. Next up, we saw the in ring return of Matt Slater who would go one on one with Calvin Harris in a fantastic back and forth contest that could have gone either way. Ever since his debut, Harris had demanded to be given a challenge, that he felt that everyone he had faced thus far were not worthy of his time and so VoW answered his challenge by throwing him into the ring with the VoW veteran. It was great to see Slater back in action once again here in VoW and it seems as if his time away hasn’t given him any ring rust, so it should be interesting to see how he fairs against the other talent that have come into VoW since the last time we saw him...
Cutting back to Lawson, the graphic now shows Cera and Dathyn holding up the Twin City titles, and Shay McClure is shown backstage in a rough state.
Zelda Lawson
So happy to see the return of Matt Slater, maybe this revival will last for a while for him. And to now move to our tag title bout, we saw Cera and Dathyn, otherwise known as The Cutthroat Corps, taking on a partnerless Shay McClure in a handicap match due to the strange disappearance of the other Gang Star member, Jermaine Brown. Shay McClure showed up looking to defend those titles and he almost did, but at the end, the numbers were just too much for him as we now have new Twin City Champions in Cera and Dathyn. But the thing that caught me really off guard was what happened moments later during the show backstage when Shay was found brutally assaulted. I'm sure there is currently some kind of investigation going on as to who attacked the now former two-time tag champ, but we hope Shay has a quick recovery from the injuries he sustained.
Cutting back to Nitro, he nods as the graphic changes to one showing Seifer Black kneeling over Crystal Haize, surrounded by medics as Matthew Robinson looks on from the ramp way with a sick grin on his face.
Joey Nitro
A quick recovery we hope for indeed, and now we move onto another disturbing event that transpired upon the ending of the highly anticipated I Quit match between Matthew Robinson and Seifer Black. It was a match that was back and forth, that even saw both men hit one another with each other’s finishing manoeuvres. But when Robinson proceeded to handcuff Black to the ropes and prepare to beat him senseless with his precious Melissa, for those who are unaware, that’s the name he’s given his sledgehammer. Black’s manager and girlfriend, Crystal Haize had seen enough and ran down to try and aid her boyfriend, however Robinson seized the opportunity and threatened to take her out with the Black Out Kick unless Black quit. As expected, to save his girlfriend from disaster, Black would indeed utter the words I Quit...unfortunately for both of them however...Robinson proceeded to take her out with the move anyway and since then, we have no idea on her condition, nor do we know where Black is as he hasn’t been seen since. Let’s hope that both of them are okay and we see them back in VoW soon...
The graphic now shows Seth Iser and Patrick Jones as the camera goes back to Lawson
Zelda Lawson
I certainly hope so, and something tells me we will have a good discussion with Mr. Robinson about this in our interview with him momentarily. But now we move on to the Seth Iser and Patrick Jones match, as these two squared off in an incredibly fantastic to watch old fashion wrestling match, a bit of a different tone from the rest of the night but it's exactly the kind of match you expect from these two men. And following his victory, a victory that was surprisingly clean, Mr. Iser showed a lot more what I would assume as kindness than he usually has shown. Could we be seeing a new Seth Iser in VoW now Joey? Or is this just one of those moments between two competitors with some company history together?
Going back to Nitro, the graphic changes to one displaying Winter Pine standing over a fallen Owen Gonsalves.
Joey Nitro
Who knows Zelda, perhaps it’s just simply down to how much respect Iser has for Jones but you can never know in these situations. Now moving onto our next piece of news and for weeks and weeks, VoW’s Twitter feed was inhabited by an unknown person who announced they would indeed be debuting in VoW at this Pay-Per-View, but what nobody expected was that person to reveal themselves by attacking Owen Gonsalves after his victory over Ace Watson. The match itself, was a pleasant, well fought classic between two talented performers, and then after the final bell tolled, in enters Winter Pine, the woman behind the unknown Twitter account. And I believe that Ms Pine has a storied history with you and your husband, Zelda...
The graphic now shows the Armed and Dangerous logo as Lawson looks on with a bit of an irky look on her face.
Zelda Lawson
To just keep myself calm, let's just say she is an old high school friend of Tyler's who was romantically involved in high school and professionally involved in a tag team with his ex-wife, and she also has connections with me due to a relationship with my sister. I'm not exactly fond of her, but she is around now and I can't do much about that. But to move on to a couple of final stories, at Armed and Dangerous we also saw Alec Rose defeat StuFish in a very good back and forth match and Kincaid defeated Heath Williams, Slick Williams, and Duncan McAllister in the pre-show fatal four way. Kincaid and Alec Rose, along with Heath Williams, have continued to look very impressive in their short time being in VoW so far. I expect some great things from these new talents arriving in VoW, and that’s including the former GPW members that now grace our roster.
The camera then shifts back to showing both Nitro and Lawson.
Joey Nitro
And that’s all for the big news stories from Armed & Dangerous and now we are pleased to announce that we are being joined by former five-time NWA World Heavyweight Champion, three-time Hall of Famer, “The Punisher”...Matthew Robinson...
The camera pans out a little to reveal Matthew Robinson sitting adjacent to Nitro dressed in a pair of black boots, a pair of dark blue denim jeans and his black “Breaking Necks, Ending Careers” T-shirt.
Joey Nitro
Thanks for joining us this evening Matt, and I want to begin this interview off with something that has been on the lips of the VoW faithful ever since it happened. You successfully forced Seifer Black to say the words, I Quit, after you threatened to kick his manager and girlfriend, Crystal Haize in the side of her head whilst he was handcuffed to the ring ropes. However, even though he quit, you proceeded to go ahead and do it anyway and so my question is this, why did you do what you did?
Robinson chuckles a little as he sits back in his chair, folding his arms.
Matthew Robinson
Joey, everyone here in VoW knows what I am like...everyone knows that there are only three people in this company that I give a damn about and those people are my Orphanage brothers. I mean c’mon, I ended the careers of Captain Cosmo, Ollie the Magic Bum and a VoW official. I nearly ended the career of Theodore Thompson, I could have potentially ended the career of Cameron Behringer and Hell...I threatened to put one of Seifer’s idiot fans in the hospital! Crystal knew all about that...and she also knew that the I Quit match with Seifer had nothing to do with her...
Smirking, he takes a sip from the bottle of water on the desk in front of him.
Matthew Robinson
At the end of the day, I was simply just giving Crystal what she deserved, people can say whatever the Hell they want to say, but the bottom line is simple, what happened to Crystal...it was her own damn fault!
Zelda Lawson
Do you not fear for any further repercussions for what you did to Crystal though? I mean, with how General Manager, Sky Sangue reacted to what Scarlet Flint did to...well, me, she is beginning to go for big with punishing people big for doing the kinds of things that you have done constantly in VoW. I mean, is there a sense you might begin losing job security if you don't straighten up your act sooner rather than later?
Robinson tosses his head back and laughs as he focuses his attention on Lawson.
Matthew Robinson
You’re obviously not very familiar with who I am Zel, you see, the difference between someone like Scarlet Flint or anyone else for that matter doing something like taking you, a none wrestler out compared to someone like myself doing the same kind of thing, I am essentially immune because I am the biggest, best, most successful wrestler this company has! I’m a record five-time NWA World Heavyweight Champion, I was the first ever NWA Grand Slam Champion, I’m a three-time Hall of Famer...altogether over my seven year career, I’ve had thirteen championship reigns. VoW wouldn’t want to risk getting rid of me because they know they would lose way too much money and essentially put themselves out of business...
Lawson rolls her eyes at the cocky nature of Robinson’s response, which Robinson chuckles about.
Joey Nitro
Speaking of championships, you have recently taken to Twitter, claiming that the new Zero Gravity Champion, Tyron Bickerton owes you...and you made reference to receiving a shot at his title, where has all this come from exactly?
Matthew Robinson
Where the Hell do you think it came from Joey? Everyone knows the only reason why Tyron Bickerton is the Zero Gravity Champion, is because of me! I took Cameron Behringer, the THEN Zero Gravity Champion, out, forcing him to relinquish the title. Due to Brett Carson’s unfortunate injury, Tyron wasn’t even going to BE at Armed & Dangerous...UNTIL...I took out Behringer. I’m the reason why he’s the champion now, so he owes me, and so I want a shot at his title...
Zelda Lawson
Well sad to say Mr. Robinson, but currently that title shot is reserved for the winner of the Alec Rose/Kincaid match at Breakthrough 34, plus again I'm sure the things you have done to certain people while a part of this roster has made Ms. Sangue skeptical of allowing you any sort of title shot until you straighten up your attitude. But I digress, bringing up Brett Carson, do you happen to have any sort of opinions on the state of The Orphanage? I mean with Cera turning away from the group, Brett getting injured, and from what I've been hearing via sources StuFish could be taking a hiatus from competition, that pretty much leaves you and Casanova English as the only standing members. Is there concern this is the beginning of the end for you guys, or is there current discussion among you and Casanova about possible new recruits that could help revitalize the vicious stable?
Matthew Robinson
Brett’s injury and Stu’s hiatus is certainly a blow...but this isn’t the end of The Orphanage, far from it. In terms of possible new recruits, Cass and I have yet to talk about the possibility, and even if we had, I wouldn’t be discussing it here. But I can guarantee that this is certainly NOT the end of The Orphanage...
Joey Nitro
Well we have just enough time for a couple more questions, and I’m wanting to shift to the upcoming edition of Breakthrough that will see you go one on one in a rematch from Breakthrough 30 against your ex-wife, Stacy Jones. When you first debuted here in VoW, you attempted to take her out but were thwarted by her brother, Seifer Black. And at Breakthrough 30, you again, attempted to take her out but again, thanks to Seifer, you failed in your attempt again. So my question is, will you once again attempt to potentially end the career of the former two-time Xcel Champion?
Matthew Robinson
Well, it all depends on how I feel at the time Joey. I did what I did when I debuted to show where my alignment was...and at Breakthrough 30, I wanted to send a message to Seifer. This time around, I have no reason to try and take her out...but the thing with me is...I do what I want, when I want...so if I fancy taking her out, I’ll go ahead and do it. But what I can guarantee for certain however, is that we won’t be seeing a repeat of what happened at Breakthrough 30, this time around, I will walk out with the win. I don’t know what the Hell is going on with Stacy outside of the ring, quite frankly I couldn’t give a damn, but she’s failing miserably inside the ring. Perhaps I should take her out, do her a favour, she’s said herself that she’s thought about quitting...maybe she should, and I can make sure that she doesn’t have a choice...
Lawson angrily glares at Robinson as she responds.
Zelda Lawson
To be completely honest Matthew, the only thing you should worry about doing is wrestling a clean fight. Stacy is going through a rough time, but she has a lot of people around her helping her, and you are certainly of no help in this situation at all. Just keep that in mind before you do something that you regret, after all it would only take a soulless human being to do that kind of thing to someone who played an important part of your life, no matter the ups and downs...but, anyway, Joey if it is all right with you, I don't have any further questions with Mr. Robinson, but if you would like to ask one last thing to the "illustrious" man right here go right on ahead.
Joey Nitro
There isn’t anything I can think of to ask you Matt, so thanks for your time...
Nitro outstretches his arm for a handshake which Robinson accepts before he then extends the handshake himself towards Lawson, who just sits there, looking away from him with her arms folded. Robinson just chuckles before retracting his hand and the camera focuses back on both Nitro and Lawson.
Joey Nitro
And that’s all we have time for tonight on the Nitro/Lawson Report, make sure to tune in next time for the Breakthrough 34 edition where we’ll be delving into everything that took place on the show as well as interviewing arguably VoW’s most established veteran ever, Seth Iser...
Lawson adjusts herself as she looks into the camera.
Zelda Lawson
Indeed Joey, next week should feature some great moments and a great interview with Mr. Iser. But until then, I'm Zelda Lawson...
Joey Nitro
And I’m Joey Nitro, you’ve been watching the Nitro/Lawson Report and until next time, good night...
The camera then pans away from the news reporters and they chat away with one another as we fade.
