In a match that many believed could be higher up the card, the vile Sickle met Dark Tiger in singles action, and the pair waged war for mere minutes before the legend Sickle was able to topple Dark Tiger and pick up the win.
Winner by Pinfall: SICKLE
In what some believe should have been the main event, the future of the SCW Alternative Championship was decided, as Paige Lewis forced Brian Kennedy to defend her championship…against two of his own Stablemates, in Dario and Mr. Creed. Dario had the upper hand for most of the match, surprising everyone, including his own teammates. At one point, Mr. Creed and Kennedy began double teaming Dario, but he held his own against the pair. Mr. Creed was able to subdue Dario just long enough for a pin, but it was Brian Kennedy who got the pin after tossing Mr. Creed out of the ring and then pinning Dario.
Winner by Pinfall: Brian Kennedy
NEW INTERIM SCW ALTERNATIVE CHAMPION
The main event was a match that could have been a PPV main event. The new SCW North American Heavyweight Champion vs Emily Desmond, a woman whom many have pegged as the number two athlete in SCW behind Paige Lewis. The pair went at it with everything they had. SCW General Manager had decreed at the start of the show that anyone who interferes in ANY of the matches would be fired and arrested on the spot, so both Cross and Desmond were going to truly fight one on one. They traded blows, slams, and even submissions.
Towards the end, Desmond had Cross in a submission, and he was fighting it, and looked like he’d make it out, when the referee called for the bell ending the match. It turned out that Neela Shizeguma had enacted a little known SCW competition rule, which stated that no match, including the main event, may go on for more than 30 minutes without preauthorization. As a result, the match ended in a no contest. After the bell, Desmond and Cross stood and stared each other down before shaking hands.

The Empire are seen rolling into the parking lot as Medics and Police are everywhere. The fire department is running around as a SCW staff member walks up to Brian.
Brian: What in the hell is going on?
He looks around as the parking lot is full of the SCW locker room and it’s fans.
Staff member: Mr. Kennedy, I hate to tell you this, but it seems as if your locker room was blown up. The SWAT team and police are sweeping the building to make sure no more explosives are in the building. Also, this arrived for you today.
He hands Brian a letter and Brian opens it.
Brian smirks as he crumbles the paper and tosses it.
Brian: Well, wait till he finds out who I’ve been talking to.
The Battle Royale had four competitors, Dario, Mr. Creed, Scott Stonewall, and Sickle. As it began, Sickle began beating down on Mr. Creed while Sickle did the same to Dario. After only a few minutes, Dario and Mr. Creed were both tossed over the top rope at the same time. Sickle and Stonewall then turned to each other and began battling. After nearly twenty minutes of action, Sickle tossed Stonewall over the top rope, winning the match.

Brian is seen in the backroom in Jessica’s dressing room, which she had given him for the night after the incident with his own. He has the SCW Tag Title on the bench beside him. He looks up at the camera with a serious look on his face.
Brian: You know something, Paige? This is the last showdown between two giants in SCW right now. At this point you seem to be unbeatable, you seem to be untouchable. Tonight we will find out if I can achieve something that only one other person this company has been able to achieve, and that is defeating you Paige. I’ve been training for this match, I’ve been working harder than I’ve ever worked before and in the end the only thing that matters is me taking the SCW world title off your waist. I am more focused, I’m in the best shape of my life, and I am ready for whatever you want to bring to this match.
Brian stands up now, taping his wrists.
Brian: I just hope that you realize what you signed up for when you asked for this type of match because not only am I bringing everything I have in my arsenal, I’m bringing some new tricks too. I’ve been asked what’s next for Brian if I’m not able to take this title off your waist. Well there’s other single titles that I can go for but if you manage to pull this one off Paige I will still be coming for you. I might not be getting another shot at the world title as long as you hold it, but that doesn’t mean I can’t be a demon in your nightmare. And I can be making you look over your back every waking moment.
The challenger adjusted his elbow pads before continuing.
Brian: But, what comes next isn’t relevant for me. The only thing that matters is what is at hand and what is at hand is me defeating you for the world title and becoming the top dog in scw once again which I will do. So when the music hits and I come down to the ring realize it’s not your normal average Brian Kennedy I am the mother fucking beast and I’m coming for my next meal. I’ll let my actions speak for themselves. Now get this damn camera out of my face.
The scene closes with Brian getting ready for his upcoming match.
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls of ALL ages…the following contest is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, weighing in at one hundred fifteen pounds, making her way from Busthead, Virginia, The Wiccan Wonder, Hex Girl!
Hex Girl by The Hex Girls hit the PA system as Hex Girl danced out onto the stage, where she pointed an imaginary wand at the crowd and began gesturing as if casting spells on her way to the ring. Inside the ring, Hex girl continued casting spells at the crowd until her music died down.
Anne Carpenter: And her opponent, weighing in at two hundred and twenty pounds this morning, from Cincinnati, Ohio…Dangerous Dean Tyler!!
The song Unscripted Violence by Violent Idols starts to blast over the PA system. The man who is known as ” Dangerous” Dean Tyler starts to come on out being accompanied to the ring by his brother, ” Sadistic” Sami Tyler. Dean’s seen carrying a switchblade with him. He gets in the ring and goes to trash talk about what he wants to do to his opponent from across the ring. After the referee calls for the opening bell, Dean charges Hexgirl, but she is able to dodge and counter a few strikes to Dean’s head. He grabs her and throws her into the corner opposite, charging her and crushing her on the return. He then throws the turnbuckle pad off to expose the steel ring underneath and tries to force Hexgirl’s head into it by grabbing her by the hair.
Allie Queen: Dean immediately taking the low road in this match.
Wayne Miller: You can expect no less from a match here in SCW. Dean has a point to prove!
Allie Queen: Indeed, Hexgirl signed up for this! She may regret it!
Hexgirl rakes Dean’s eyes and hits a drop toehold, sending Dean’s forehead into the exposed turnbuckle ring busting him open above the eye. She then rolls him up to attempt a quick School Boy Pin 1……..2…… Dean powers out.
Wayne Miller: Dean’s nasty plan backfired!
Allie Queen: That injury looks serious, the referee may call the match.
Wayne Miller: This is not being called on the count of a little blood. This is SCW!
Dean is enraged and again grabs Hexgirl, this time planting her with a Suplex to the mid ring area as the crowd boos. He then walks over to the ropes jumping to the top. The blood is running down into his eyes. He wipes it away and jumps off with a elbow drop.
Allie Queen: Tyler jumps, oh great landing on Hexgirl!
Wayne Miller: Hexgirl needs to get back into this match.
Allie Queen: And quick I might add.
He picks up Hexgirl and hits another suplex. He taunts the crowd and this gives Hexgirl the time needed to get back to her feet. He turns to face her and she kicks him hard in the gut following it up with a DDT. She gives Dean no break as she mounts him and lands a series of blows to Dean’s already bloody forehead. The crowd gets behind her and counts. 7….8…9…10!!! She stops as the ref warns her.
Wayne Miller: The fans are really getting behind Hexgirl tonight with a countdown.
Allie Queen: It would mean a lot for her reputation if she pulls off the win tonight.
Wayne Miller: The question is can she pull off the upset?
The crowd roars as Hexgirl gets to her feet as Dean gets to his. He runs toward her and she hits a drop toe hold on Dean causing him to hit his head off the exposed turnbuckle knocking him out cold. Hexgirl notices Dean’s motionless body and goes for the quick cover once more.
1…2…3!!!
Allie Queen: Dean tried to do some underhanded tactics and they backfired on him twice tonight allowing Hexgirl to pick up a huge win here tonight.
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, here is your winner…The Wiccan Wonder, Hex Girl!
Winner: Hexgirl
Backstage, in the largest and most well furnished dressing room, Paige Lewis is found holding her baby boy. Jessica Tendonin is seated next to her, smiling at the small boy while her own children stand near, watching the baby smile at his mother, the SCW World Heavyweight Champion.
Paige: Tonight, I will complete SCW’s first ever world title trilogy. I’ve beaten the biggest names in SCW. I’ve held this title longer than anyone has held any other title in SCW history. Tonight, Brian Kennedy has to learn, for the third and final time, that I am better than him. I’ve always been better than him, and I will always BE better than him. Tonight, I will leave no doubt in anyone’s mind that I am better, stronger, and far smarter than Brian Kennedy. People have asked me what I’m gonna do if I lose, how will I explain the loss after I puffed my chest out so far going into tonight? Well, like Tyler Cross said…I don’t need excuses, because I don’t lose. That is all I have left to say.
Wayne Miller: This next match was originally slated as a singles match, but Tyler Cross was added after mixing it up and defeating Fathi at Overdrive 53.
Allie Queen: The North American Heavyweight Championship, in name, is the newest belt here in SCW, but it has the oldest active lineage, being a direct continuation of the old North American Championship originally held by Jesse Owusu. These three are about to step into some big shoes.
Anne Carpenter: The following contest is scheduled for one fall, and it will be contested under Extreme Rules, and it is for the vacant SCW North American Heavyweight Championship! Introducing first, from Cameron, North Carolina, weighing in at two hundred and twelve pounds…The Extremist…TYLER CROSS!!!
“Unforgiven II” by Metallica blares over the PA system as Tyler Cross walks out onto the ramp smoking a cigarette he raises his hands into a X symbol then carries on down the rampway smoking, he enters the ring and flicks the end of his cigarette at the crowd.
Wayne Miller: After the General Manager had The Empire relieve Priest of the championship, it was decided initially that Fathi and Dark Tiger would actually compete for the belt instead of a shot at it, and then Tyler Cross was added. This match should not be overlooked.
Allie Queen: Indeed, we have that insane main event coming, but this match is sure to be exciting and lead us into it.
Anne Carpenter: Next, please welcome The Rabid Curr, Fathi!!!
The area near the rampway darkens. Red lights strobe on the right of the entrance and blue on the left. Seconds later we hear a siren followed by the opening words over the pa system:
No surrender, no…surrender
As the lyrics begin saying no surrender a video begins on the tron showing caution tape and someone facing away from the camera crying. As the lyrics kick in at 15 seconds Fathi emerges from the otherside of the tape on the video smiling. The word: FATHI appears in Arabic under his face ( فتحي )
As the word Fathi appears under the face of Fathi the man himself emerges at the top of the rampway wearing black boots, dark Southpole jeans and a black hoodie with a murderous rage in his eyes. Unzipping the black hoodie he reveals a black plain t-shirt. Tossing the hoodie to the side, Fathi baseball slides into the ring.
Anne Carpenter: And the final opponent, from Richmond, Virginia, standing over seven feet tall…DARK TIGER!!!
The lights go out and Miseria Cantare starts to play and Dark Tiger comes to the ramp. Right before Danny Havok starts to sing it transitions into the Animal by Disturbed and a purple spotlight shines on him. The crowd goes nuts for him.
Wayne Miller: Dark Tiger has the size advantage going into this match, but we’ve seen plenty of giantslayers in SCW over the years.
Allie Queen: One has to wonder if it will prove to be a factor in the decision, for sure. I’d say Dark Tiger is the underdog going into this match, Tyler Cross has the most hype. Fathi can’t be counted out, though. He can definitely handle his business, as Cross and Tiger will soon find out.
With all three in the ring, the referee checked them all for weapons. After being satisfied, he held the SCW North American Championship up in the air before calling for the opening bell. Fathi and Cross immediately went after Dark Tiger, pinning him in the corner and pummeling him.
Wayne Miller: Little bit of team work right out the gate there!
Allie Queen: It’s a good strategy, neutralize the obvious threat, deal with each other later.
Cross backed away as Fathi continued laying into Dark Tiger. Cross grabbed a steel chair from under the ring and came back inside with it. Gesturing to Fathi to lift Dark Tiger, Cross pointed at his chair. Reading it, Fathi pulled Dark Tiger to his feet and held him for Cross, who ran across the ring and smashed the chair across Fathi’s face sending him to the mat.
Wayne Miller: Alliances do not last long with SCW gold on the line!!!
Allie Queen: Cross has to deal with Dark Tiger alone now!!!
Cross charged at Dark Tiger, but he was caught by the throat and lifted into the air for a Chokeslam. Cross countered with a kick to the groin and he was dropped. With Dark Tiger doubled over, Cross saw his chance and went all in nailing his finisher, Suicidal Tendencies. The crowd popped seeing a finisher so early.
Wayne Miller: TYLER CROSS WANTS TO END THIS RIGHT NOW!!!
Allie Queen: Fathi is out, Dark Tiger is out, all Cross has to do is pin one of them!!!
Cross covered Dark Tiger for a pin, but Fathi yanked him off, having recovered from the chair shot. Fathi and Cross began trading blows now. While they were focused on each other, Dark Tiger slowly got to his feet and stomped towards both of them, taking both down with a huge Clothesline. Looking at his handiwork, Dark Tiger went for Fathi, yanking him to his feet and then into the ropes.
Wayne Miller: Dark Tiger using his size and power to his advantage here!
Allie Queen: Fathi whipped into the ropes as Dark Tiger gets going here!
Dark Tiger took Fathi out with a Big Boot and then turned to Tyler Cross who was on one knee. The two clashed and Cross forced the big man into the corner and began kicking him in the gut. After a moment, Cross whipped Dark Tiger into the opposite corner before chasing after him. Dark Tiger countered a Shoulder Thrust by lifting his knee sharply. Tyler Cross stumbled backwards as blood flowed from his nose.
Wayne Miller: Tyler Cross busted open here in the first few minutes.
Allie Queen: Dark Tiger is looking good against these two, but we’re still very early in the match.
Fathi had rolled out of the ring and grabbed another steel chair, and when he rolled back in, Dark Tiger and Tyler Cross were still going at it. Cross shoved the big man away. Fathi charged at Dark Tiger, but was spotted at the last second just as he swung the chair. The chair bounced off the top rope and smacked Fathi in the head, dazing him. Dark Tiger capitalized by lifting him onto his shoulders before driving him to the mat with his finisher, a variation of the Tower of London.
Wayne Miller: Etched in Stone! Dark Tiger nails his finisher on Fathi!
Allie Queen: He better watch his back, though, Tyler Cross is waiting in the wings!
Indeed, Dark Tiger got back up and was smacked with a steel chair by Tyler Cross before he executed his own finisher, Suicidal Tendencies, laying the big man out. Cross covered Dark Tiger and the referee began the count.
1…2…3!!!
Wayne Miller: It’s over! Tyler Cross has pinned Dark Tiger!
Allie Queen: Tyler Cross is the new SCW North American Heavyweight Champion!!!
Wayne Miller: This match was over in a flash, but we do indeed have a new champion!
Allie Queen: Dark Tiger had several moments where he looked to be in control, but in the end, Tyler Cross saw an opening, and he took it!
Tyler Cross was handed the SCW North American Championship by the referee before having his hand raised in victory.
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, your winner by pinfall, and the NEW SCW NORTH AMERICAN HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION…….TYLER CROSS!!!
Cross grinned cockily as he exited the ring with his new belt. With one hand, he spelled out EMPIRE in the air.
Wayne Miller: As Tyler Cross leaves with the gold, we know one thing…Empire leaves with at least one new championship. Brian is up next, and we will see if tonight is a good night for the Empire or a great night.
Allie Queen: Let’s not forget, Paige Lewis originally won the North American Championship in short order before leaving Spring Meltdown with the world title. Tyler Cross has big shoes to fill with that title, but if we’ve seen an indication here tonight, he might just be up for the challenge!
Winner: Tyler Cross NEW SCW NORTH AMERICAN HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION

The camera opens and we’re in a condo in New York City. Outside one can see the lights of Central Park, lights that remind one of the darken sky above. Sitting on a luxurious leather chair is Emily Desmond dressed in a pink shirt and jeans, her auburn hair allowed to hang down. One can tell that Emily is not happy about something. Finally she looks up, but the dark mood continues.
Emily: Tonight is Domination and I’m not there.I was booked against Paige Lewis in a match to regain the Alternative Title, a title I fought hard to win and fought harder to keep it. I do want to let Paige know that I’m behind you, cheering you on to beat Brian Kennedy, a man who seems to be going backwards instead of forward. You might think you’re going to walk away with the World title. Guess what, only in your dreams. The Paige you think you know is far from the Paige that is the SCW World and Alternative champion.
As I said I wish I was there tonight, but this shit going around is no fun. Yes I got the vaccine, yes I’ve worn masks when going outside of home, but I still got it, no symptoms except for a bit of nagging cough and a few sniffles. Sean didn’t even have that but because he was exposed he had to quarantine. To those in the locker room, to the reporters, commentators and so forth know this won’t stop me. In fact it’s made me better, stronger. When you’re sitting around twiddling our thumbs you start thinking.
Emily adjusts herself, tucking one long leg underneath her, and brushes her hair back from her face.
Emily: A lot of time of thinking, of watching what others have to say and prove that you are indeed smarter than a trained chimp. But there are a few people, who have stood out thus far. At first I thought it was one person who’s dumber than rocks, but so far I’ve found two.
Two people who couldn’t use that few brain cells they do have to bother and do….you know, like some actual research, find out who they are truly facing and what the others, people they don’t know, are capable of.
I thought it was just you Dario but this Mr Creed seems to be like your best buddy cause BOTH of you are stupid…..
Dumb, dumb, dumb
Yes Dario and Creed. See I thought Dario just was some ass whose book didn’t come with pictures. I’ll ask them to print a few. One for you and one for Creed and then I’ll have a few to hand out to anyone like you. Hell the janitors should be wrestling instead of you. At least they like….have a reason to not know who wrestles for SCW, and is part of the….gang. I don’t mean gangs like the 1014 people who are part of the Empire. I’m talking about the commentators, whose names are Allie and Wayne. Anne, Sean and let’s even make the jump to the next category. You called out everyone in the building except your buddy Kennedy and Paige Lewis. Tell me guys why you think I was going to be in this match of yours. Until this shit going around decided I needed to share in its fun, I HAD A MATCH. Can I ask? Did you even bother to read the rules? Anyone not booked in a match could be in the battle royale. So tell me why would I bother to wrestle twice? While I would love to have two titles, as Paige does for the moment, beating people that my dog can out wrestle is not my style.
Emily takes a drink of water from the bottle on the table next to her. She replaces the lid, and seems to stare out to space, but it’s more like Emily is trying to keep her temper under control.
Emily: Dario and Creed…and whatever dumb friends you have. As I said, you two are two of the dumbest people I’ve ever seen. Did you even look to see who, you know, wrestles for SCW. Well let me enlighten you, in a manner you did, and that is you took the page from the website and saw all the names of who WORKS for SCW, not wrestlers for SCW. Hell if you want I would be glad to fax you the information so you might be better prepared. But then I’m surprised you even know how a computer turns on, let alone works. I’ve seen apes with way more brains. But since you didn’t take the trouble to do your own research, and I can only watch Paige’s matches so many times I see them in my sleep, Let me do this for you. And this is for you,and anyone as dumb as you guys.
First, in case Creed youre as dumb as Dario. Time for a bit of a history lesson. The Alternative title has a past that has stood the test of time. It got its name because it’s the champion’s choice of the type of match they want to have when they defend the title. You could be in a ladder match, a scaffold match, first blood, you name it. It was also created to be a stepping stone to the world title. Oh I do have a small thing I wish you quit doing, and this goes to others out there. We get it, you all worked, were partners, faced each other in another company. Ok we get it so I’m asking on behalf of those with SCW that wasn’t in the “other” company, try to focus, it’s behind you, it’s the past. I…..
Emily lets out a sigh and takes another drink of water.
Emily: As I said we’ll go over this step by step because that seems to be how you function and tell yourself that hey it sounds intelligent. Tyler Cross, yes you apparently know him and I presume he knows you. And you’re so certain you’re going to win that you seem to give Cross a pass and afterwards go out for a drink. Scott Stonewell, he knows I don’t like him, but it’s not personal. I just think he’s been over-hyped a bit but if it came down to you or him, I’d pick him. If he just came back down to earth and concentrated, he could win. Priest a few years ago was indeed a man to be afraid of because he was very talented but these days, no one has seen him. Which makes sense as to why he’s not signed with SCW. His contract ran out a few years ago, so seeing him in this match, given his current situation, will be impressive….if you believe in ghosts.
Emily gets up and stretches then walks over to a large glass window, one that goes from the loor to the ceiling.She opens the door and steps out to a balcony that would put a normal room to shame with its massive size. She leans on the edge of the balcony, looking down at the street and sees the cars going by. However she is so far up that the noise of a city that never sleeps doesn’t disturb her at all. She turns around, the wind whipping her hair slightly.
Emily: I’ll say her name may not be Hell Kat, and I get what you said about her but all she is in my book is a copycat. If you ask why, look up my mom….Wildcat Lynn Brewster who retired a few years ago. She was in wrestling since she was 16 and was 42 when she retired. To me Hell Kat wants to ride the coattails of a truly great wrestling. She was breaking down the barriers in a time where doing so cost her a great deal on a personal level. So….
Emily stops, and it is obvious that now it’s about to get extremely intense, for this is where Dario had crossed a few lines.
Emily: Lucius Tendonin…this is where I seriously questioned your mind. Dude, you know Kennedy, you’re one of ….1021 people who say they’re with Empire or DEA or such and you have NO clue who Lucius is? You dumb….I feel bad for you because you will find out that his WIFE Jessica….you getting a picture here? You just insulted your own team of merry munchkins. I never thought I’d see someone that stupid that you don’t even know who or who isn’t part of the group. Then you mention Allie, Anne, Wayne, and even my boyfriend Sean. They do not wrestle at all, not in SCW, not anywhere. Again THEY DO NOT WRESTLE. How much simpler can I say that?
Emily smirks as if this couldn’t get any worse but knows it will.
Emily: You dumb son of a bitch. Neela Shizeguma is the General Manager of SCW. She was once the World champion of SCW. In fact she was the very FIRST World champion that SCW had. She was brought in after the disappearance of Mr. Walker. You even dared to say Mr. Walker would come out for this match. Again, he’s missing. He hasn’t been seen in years. Then you seem dismiss all the others, which given I know some of the names. You do seem to know who Dean Tyler is but in my book he’s not that impressive. I mean he won his first match in SCW, and it was with me, but then he pissed off Adatu Urakih and she tore him to bits while defending the International Heavyweight Championship.
Emily shrugs and walks back inside and sits down where she had been earlier.
Emily: I’m not sure I should be flattered or not since you’ve heard of me. Given I’ve wrestled SCW nearly exclusively my whole career, with a fleeting moment in ….in SWAT, that unless it was there you’re full of the brown stuff. I’m a former Alternative champion, you should look at past videos of my matches. I lived up to what the Alternative title describes. Casket match, Ladder match, Submission only….and it continues from there.
Emily turns around again and looks at something, something far in the distance that it seems only she can see.
Emily: The only two people neither of you mentioned, at least not as opponents, are the wanna-be-champion Brian Kennedy, who hasn’t been close since he was beaten by my cousin, and the world champion Paige Lewis. Look Paige and I may not be best friends but I have a sneaking feeling that right now she’d probably agree with me a lot. So boys, and I use that term loosely. I know….before I come back I’ll see if I can find you both really….cool sounding names of rocks. Then you’ll fit the image perfectly!!
Emily actually smiles at this as she thinks that she’ll do exactly that.
Emily: Time for me to turn on the show and see how it goes. Know Dario, Creed and anyone else all the way up to Paige, I wish I could be there. But until I’m “medically cleared”, meaning they think I won’t infect people, I will be watching every move that people make tonight. I’ll be watching for mistakes, watching for ways to counter. I have some people I want to meet in that ring, and I’ll be in touch with Neela to express my wishes. I have a feeling she will be more than happy to give me those matches, knowing my background and abilities. Why would they do that? If I was to speak for either of them, it would be teach those dumb a……
Emily stops, not wanting to insult poor animals that have never hurt her.
Emily: To teach your sorry butts that next time do your homework before you open your mouths and sound so pathetic. You’re almost a disgrace to this business, but I’m pretty sure the fans will laugh at both of you, and cheer me on. See I’ve been here for quite awhile and I’m not planning on going anywhere.
Oh….Dario, you may go. Mr Creed I have a few words for you. You seem to be thinking the ladies of SCW are all a bunch of prim, weak women who are afraid to break a nail if they get in the ring. Far from it. I know Jessica, Paige, Urakih to name just a few will agree with me when I say don’t underestimate us. You may think we look like beauty queens, but we’re some of the most badass female athletes on this planet.
Guys, enjoy your chance for fleeting fame because it doesn’t matter who it is, you will run into one of us, and that day will be the day we show not just how dumb but how weak you are.
Camera fades to black.
Wayne Miller: Strong words from Emily Desmond, for Brian Kennedy and indeed all of SCW!
Allie Queen: Emily Desmond and Paige Lewis were set to be opponents here tonight, but Desmond is having to quarantine, and we wish her a speedy recovery. But how crazy is it to hear she’s in Paige’s corner tonight? Don’t forget, there WILL be a rematch between them at some point.
Wayne Miller: Brian Kennedy has few friends in SCW, so it’s not all that surprising. You know, I heard Paige Lewis contemplated putting the Alternative Championship on the line as well tonight against Brian.
Allie Queen: I heard the same rumor, and that she decided not to, out of respect for Emily Desmond, that way, even if she loses to Brian tonight, Emily still gets the match she is owed.
Wayne Miller: This main event will leave one person with a broken heart, and the other with the biggest prize in the world.
Allie Queen: Brian has waited a long time for this moment, a shot at Paige Lewis and her coveted SCW World Heavyweight Championship, a prize that she has been able to hold onto for most of its existence. Only Jessica Tendonin has managed to briefly pry it from her clutch, and in doing so is also the only person to ever defeat Paige Lewis. A while back, we were saying Paige Lewis undefeatable. Now, we say only Jessica can do it. Tonight, Brian Kennedy looks to make history in a big way.
Wayne Miller: Paige Lewis will absolutely go down in history as one of our most dominant champions in history, and as the first two time world champion. Tonight, she has to defend against a man whom she has defeated twice already in non-title matches. Can she do it for a third and final time?
Allie Queen: As we saw earlier, the General Manager of SCW, Neela Shizeguma, has declared that if Brian Kennedy cannot defeat Paige Lewis here tonight, he moves to the back of the line and will not get another shot unless he earns it the hard way.
Wayne Miller: That added pressure may just be what Brian needs in order to get it done here tonight. Paige Lewis had some words for us all before the match, and she sounded more than ready, and we heard from Brian Kennedy as well. Tonight is a make or break night for both of them.
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls of ALL ages…the following contest is your MAIN EVENT of the evening, and it is for the SCW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP, and it will be contested in SCW’s first ever Seven Circles of Hell match. The first competitor to win 4 rounds will be declared the SCW World Heavyweight Champion! Introducing first, he is one half of the SCW Tag Team Champions, The Living Legend, Brian Kennedy!!
As the rhythm picks up after around a minute of music plays and the words start to work its way through the arena the lights cut out and a spot light shines at the top of the ramp. Brian is seen standing there with a smile, in his hand is a 20lb sledge hammer. He has the SCW Tag Title around his waist.
He had alot to say.
He had alot of nothing to say.
(We’ll miss him. 2x)
He had alot to say.
He had alot of nothing to say.
(We’ll miss him. 2x)
(We’re gonna miss him. 2x)
So loooooong!
Fire shoots out from the stage. Smoke rises from the stage as he starts to walk toward the ring. He stops about halfway to the ring as he flexes in front of the camera kissing his sledge hammer. He smirks in to the camera yelling snide remarks.
We wish you well.
You told us how you weren’t afraid to die.
Well so looooooong.
Don’t cryyyyy.
Or feel too down.
Not all martyrs see divinity.
But at least you tried.
He climbs up the steps and turns toward the crowd and taunts them by flipping them off and girls scream his name. He stops and turns his back towards the crowd and jumps over the top rope and stands in the middle of the ring dropping the SCW Tag Title, he looks around and drops the sledge hammer and flexes as the flashes flow throughout the arena.
Standing above the crowd
he had a voice that was strong and loud.
(We’ll miss him. 2x)
Ranting and pointing his finger
at everything but his heart.
(We’ll miss him. 2x)
(We’re gonna miss him. 2x)
No wayyyyyy
to recall
what it was that you had said to me,
like I care at alll.
But he was sooo louuud.
You sure could yell.
You took a stand on every little thing
and soooo louuuuuuuuud.
You, could be, the one, who saves, me from, my own, existence.
He climbs all the turnbuckles yet again doing a pose with his arms spread out wide from each one as the music fades. He walks over and grabs a mic. He stands there looking at Tyler.
Anne Carpenter: And his opponent! She weighed in at one hundred and sixty nine pounds this morning, and hails from London, England. She is the SCW Alternative Champion, and she is the REIGNING AND DEFENDING SCW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION…THE UNSTOPPABLE PAIGE LEWIS!!!
I’m crossing out names
And no one is safe (Hey!)
I’ll leave a rose on your grave
It’s the dove and grenade
The crowd roared as they awaited the arrival of the champion. They only had to wait a few seconds. Paige Lewis walked out onto the stage, the arena lights glimmering off of the SCW Alternative Championship on her left shoulder and the SCW World Heavyweight Championship around her waist.
Here we go again, coming straight from the top
From the belly of the beast ’cause we’re straight off the block
Got ice in my veins and I’m never gonna stop
Body-bag, toe tag, yeah, everybody drop
Wayne Miller: And there she is, but she’s not alone!
Lewis was joined by two more women, Candice Kingston on her left, and the SCW International Heavyweight Champion, Adatu Urakih on her right. In the ring, Brian Kennedy is stretching, pulling on the ropes. After a few seconds of conversation, Paige left her associates on the ramp and continued her way down the ramp, high fiving fans.
Allie Queen: What about that bombshell that Paige dropped on us? During the hiatus, she had a baby!? One has to wonder what form she’ll be in, but she says she can get this done, so we will see. Brian is also confident that he’s finally found the right combination to defeat the champion.
Yeah, some people got it, and some people don’t
Somebody wins, and somebody won’t
Ice Nine, P. Roach, Undead, that’s all she wrote
And everybody else, well, welcome to the show
Paige went to the barricade and leaned over, hugging her parents, who were in the front row, while her uncle was backstage with her son and her brother, looking after them. Climbing into the ring now, Paige climbed the turnbuckle and held both championships up.
Yeah, compare me to none
‘Cause I got the heart of a champion
Allie Queen: No matter who wins here tonight, history will be made. This is, if I’m not mistaken, SCW’s first and thus far only World Heavyweight Trilogy. Wayne, who does a win here mean more to, in regards to their career?
Wayne Miller: Obviously both competitors would like to leave with a win, because that means they leave as the World Heavyweight Champion. Paige Lewis is a future SCW Hall of Famer, no question asked. Her story is one of inspiration, one of perseverance. She has done everything she said she would do, and she has ruled over the SCW Roster for the last several years as an unstoppable force. Winning here tonight, for her, though, is just bragging rights.
Allie Queen: And for Kennedy?
Wayne Miller: It’s do or die time for Kennedy. Like you said a moment ago, Neela has decreed that if Kennedy does not defeat Lewis here tonight, he has to fight his way back to another shot. For Kennedy, defeating Paige Lewis here tonight is about validation. Paige has called out that he doesn’t win singles matches often, a win here tonight would hush that up.Kennedy was SCW Champion years ago, he has made it his primary goal to become the SCW World Heavyweight Champion. If he can do it, he’ll become the only person to hold both of SCW’s world titles, and become the second person to be a two time world champion here. Brian Kennedy NEEDS to win this match.
Allie Queen: Wayne, you’re an asshole sometimes, but you’ve just laid it all very nicely. This match promises to be a classic.
In the ring, the referee was checking both competitors for weapons. This took a few minutes as Brian demanded Paige be checked twice. Then, the referee took the SCW World Heavyweight Championship from Paige Lewis and held it up in the center of the ring. As soon as the bell rang, the two charged at each other. Paige ducked a clothesline from Brian, but she was not ready for the backhand that stunned her.
Wayne Miller: The strategy for both of them should be to end these first two rounds quickly, maybe even the third, as the sixth and seventh rounds, if needed, will come down to outlasting your opponent.
Allie Queen: We heard Paige say it already, she intends to make Brian Kennedy “tap out like a bitch.”
In the ring, Brian grabbed Paige by the hair, yanking her head down toward his knee, but Paige blocked his knee and then hit him with a low blow. Brian dropped to his knees in pain while looking at the referee, who sort of shrugged.
Wayne Miller: Oh, I think we’re seeing what she meant.
Allie Queen: That’s right, Paige said the rules of the match were very specific, and a round can only end under the rules it’s contested up.
Paige grabbed Brian by the arm, stretching it out and then flattening it on the mat and doing a handstand before dropping her knees right onto the outstretched arm. Brian writhed in pain as he rolled away. Paige stomped on the arm as she stalked Brian.
Wayne Miller: That Handstand Knee Drop Armbreaker is a real blast from the past!
Allie Queen: Indeed it is! And looked like it wa-what’s this!?
In the ring, and Paige advanced on Brian, he suddenly lunged forward on the mat, yanking her into a small package rollup.
1…2…3!!!
The crowd absolutely erupted in shock! Paige Lewis kicked out too late and as she got back to her feet she stomped angrily.
Wayne Miller: BRIAN KENNEDY JUST PINNED PAIGE LEWIS! I CAN’T BELIEVE IT!!!
Allie Queen: IF THIS WAS A NORMAL MATCH, BRIAN KENNEDY WOULD BE THE SCW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION RIGHT NOW!
Anne Carpenter: Brian Kennedy has pinned Paige Lewis, and won the first round. The next round will be contested as a submission match, ending when only one of the opponents taps out or cannot answer the referees call. The round will begin in sixty seconds.
Wayne Miller: That’s going to put a lot of wind in Brian’s sails, that’s for sure.
Allie Queen: It’s just the first round, but both superstars have to realize just how fast a fall can happen.
As soon as the bell rang, Brian charged at Paige, stopping just short of her to deliver a devastating right hand that sent her stumbling backwards. Brian stayed on the attack, delivering another big right hand that took the champion down to her knees.
Wayne Miller: Brian is wasting no time here, he’s taking out all of his frustration on Paige and she has no answer for him as he begins pummelling her!
Allie Queen: One has to wonder, if one of them get busted open before the next round, how does that work for the scoring?
Brian had mounted Paige now and was hammering away. Paige managed to reach out and grab the ropes, and the referee forced Brian off of her. When Paige got to her feet, Brian charged her, clotheslining her over the top rope.
Wayne Miller: They’re heading out of the ring now, but the submission must happen IN the ring.
Allie Queen: Correct, we haven’t reached the Falls Count Anywhere round yet.
Brian got to his feet and whipped Paige into the ring apron, making her groan in pain. As she tried to regroup, Brian grabbed the steel steps and tossed them inside the ring. Grabbing Paige, Brian dragged her over to the ring post and rammed her into it. Paige groaned again but Brian rolled her into the ring.
Wayne Miller: Brian seems to be fully in control for the moment, but he has to make Paige tap out to win the round.
Allie Queen: Paige has vowed that she would win the submission round, so Brian has his work cut out for him.
Brian grabbed Paige and began striking her in the face. Paige got her guard up after the third strike and maintained it until Brian grabbed her quickly and delivered a DDT onto the ring steps. The crowd booed as Brian got to his feet and laughed as he admired his work. Paige had a fresh cut on her forehead and her blood was running down her face.
Wayne Miller: The champion has been busted open!
Allie Queen: If Brian is going for the tap out, he needs to do it now while she’s stunned!!!
As Brian advanced on Paige, the PA system came to life playing Waiting For The Kill by Queensryche. The crowd erupted, recognizing the music in an instant. Brian seemed to recognize it too, as he whipped around to the stage area looking shocked.
Wayne Miller: HEY! THAT’S BRIAN BREWSTER’S MUSIC!!! IS THE FINAL SCW CHAMPION HERE TONIGHT???
Allie Queen: I DON’T KNOW, BUT BRIAN KENNEDY HAD BETTER WATCH HIS BACK!
Indeed, while Brian Kennedy was looking for Brian Brewster, Paige had gotten to her feet and was laying in wait for Kennedy. When he turned around, Paige nearly took his head off with a Super Kick that sent him stumbling backwards into the ropes. As he rebounded, Paige ducked and then grabbed him around the middle before planting his spine on the pine with a massive Spinebuster as the PA system went silent. As the crowd roared, Paige rolled Brian over and locked in the Crossface.
Wayne Miller: I THINK THAT WAS A PLOY BY PAIGE! BRIAN BREWSTER IS NOT HERE!!!
Allie Queen: CROSSFACE LOCKED IN!!! WILL BRIAN TAPOUT?!
Brian was struggling, but Paige had the Crossface locked in. The stronger challenger began crawling towards the ropes. Paige released the hold and then dragged Brian back to the center of the ring before performing another Handstand Knee Drop Armbreaker and transitioning back into the Crossface.
Wayne Miller: If Brian is gonna get out of this, he needs to think of something, fast!
Allie Queen: Paige said she was going to make him tap out, and right now, it’s looking like Kennedy might have to do just that to survive to later rounds in this match.
Brian was turning red as Paige applied even more pressure. The referee was on his knees, asking Brian if he wanted to give in, but the challenger refused. Paige leaned back further, threatening to break Brian’s neck. The challenger began tapping and the referee forced Paige off of him.
Anne Carpenter: Brian Kennedy has submitted to the Crossface, and Paige Lewis has won this round. The next round was to be the First Blood round, however, Paige Lewis is already bleeding. Therefore, Brian Kennedy has automatically been awarded the round, and we will move directly to the Falls Count Anywhere round after a 2 minute rest period.
Wayne Miller: I never thought I’d be calling this, but Brian Kennedy is currently in the lead!
Allie Queen: Brian has a huge grin on his face as he sits in his corner. He knows he only needs to win two more rounds, and then he will join a VERY exclusive club, the “I beat Paige Lewis Club.”
After the 2 minute break, the bell rang and Paige and Brian met in the center. Paige slapped Brian making him chuckle as he returned the strike. Paige stumbled backwards and Brian rushed her, grabbing her by the hair and driving her face straight down into the mat. The cut in her face that had begun to dry over was reopened and the champion’s face was beginning to run red.
Wayne Miller: Brian has drawn more blood from the champion!
Allie Queen: Brian taking control here and hoping to pick up another quick round victory.
Brian released Paige and slid out of the ring, grabbing a sledgehammer. As he came back into the ring, the referee tried to grab it from him, but Brian struck him in the head and the crowd roared with disapproval.
Wayne Miller: BRIAN JUST TOOK OUT THE REFEREE!!!
Allie Queen: WHAT IS HE THINKING!?
Brian then turned back to Paige and began advancing on her as she was on one knee. Suddenly, she lashed out and flash was seen as she caught his jaw.
Wayne Miller: I think…I think Paige Lewis just used the Brass Knuckles!!
Allie Queen: This match is descending into chaos, quickly. The referee is out, Brian is out, and Paige can barely stand. Hey wait, what the hell?!
A man had jumped out of the stands and slid into the ring behind Paige Lewis. It was Tyler Cross!
Wayne Miller: What the hell is the new North American champ doing out here??!!
Allie Queen: I think we’re about to find out!!!
Tyler put one leg on Paige’s back and then nailed her with his finisher, Suicidal Tendencies, laying her out. He then laid Brian on top of her before grinning as he got out of the ring and ran up the ramp. The crowd was incensed and several fans had jumped the barricade and tried to chase Cross, but SCW Security were able to intervene.
Wayne Miller: Oh my, these fans are not happy about that!
Allie Queen: We’ve seen the signs in the crowd saying “If Paige loses, we riot,” I think we might just see a riot here tonight!
In the madness of SCW security trying to maintain control of the fans, the referee had begun stirring. Brian and Paige were still out. The referee saw the cover and began counting, reaching three. The crowd didn’t notice.
Anne Carpenter: Brian Kennedy has pinned Paige Lewis in the Falls Count Anywhere round, and the score is now 3 to 1, Kennedy. The No Disqualifications round will begin in 2 minutes.
Wayne Miller: Allison, I can’t believe what I’m witnessing here tonight. Brian Kennedy is actually besting Paige Lewis, albeit with an assist from Tyler Cross. If he wins just ONE more round, we’ll have a new champion!
Allie Queen: I think we should start preparing for the very real, and at this point likely, possibility that Brian Kennedy leaves here tonight as the new SCW World Heavyweight Champion! Paige has to win all three remaining rounds if she wants to leave as the champion, and I must say, they are the most brutal.
In the ring, Brian had begun stirring first, and when he saw the scoreboard and realized he was just one round away from winning, he picked Paige up and lined up and executed the War Cry before covering her for the pin.
Wayne Miller: This could be it! We might have a new champion in a few seconds!
Allie Queen: Kennedy can TASTE the twenty pounds of gold!!!
1………2………KICKOUT!!!
A shocked gasp spread through the crowd as Paige Lewis kicked out. Brian couldn’t believe it. He picked her up and hit his finisher again and covered her.
1………2………KICKOUT!!!
The arena shook as the fans realized Paige Lewis had kicked out a second time.
Wayne Miller: I DON’T BELIEVE IT! PAIGE LEWIS HAS KICKED OUT OF THE WAR CRY TWICE!!!
Allie Queen: BRIAN KENNEDY CAN’T BELIEVE IT EITHER!!!
In utter shock, Brian backed away from the unmoving Paige Lewis. Just then, he spotted his forgotten sledgehammer and grabbed it. As he raised it above his head, another man slid into the ring and grabbed him from behind, yanking him around. The crowd screamed as they recognized Brian Brewster. Brewster gave Kennedy two middle fingers before kicking him in the gut and nailing his finisher, the Next Generation. Brewster got to his feet quickly and grinned as he exited the ring and walked up the ramp.
Wayne Miller: BRIAN BREWSTER IS HERE, AND HE JUST LAID OUT BRIAN KENNEDY
Allie Queen: FIRST TYLER CROSS, AND NOW BRIAN BREWSTER!! THIS MATCH IS INSANE!
Brian Brewster had reached the stage when he stopped, seeming to have an idea, and began making his way back down to the ring. Sliding back in, he looked at both competitors, and then at the referee. The fans were in an all out frenzy as Brewster grabbed Paige and dragged her on top of Kennedy and then rolled out of the ring as the referee began counting.
Wayne Miller: OH MY GOD, I GUESS THIS IS PAYBACK FOR TYLER CROSS! PAIGE IS ABOUT TO WIN THE ROUND, AND SHE’S NOT EVEN CONSCIOUS!!
1………2……..3!!!!!!!!!
The score was now 3-2, still in Kennedy’s favor, but the fans were roaring as if it was over.
Wayne Miller: I’m speechless, Allie. Brian Kennedy is one round away from taking home the big one. Paige has to somehow win two more rounds, and it looks like her tank is nearing empty. The question now is, can she put Kennedy away without using her finisher?
Allie Queen: I have to agree with you, Paige is looking worn out in there, while Brian has for the most part been doing most of the damage. We’re not seeing the match we thought we’d see.
Anne Carpenter: Brian Kennedy has been pinned by Paige Lewis in the No Disqualifications round, and the score is now 3 to 2, Kennedy. The No Finishers round will begin in 2 minutes. During this round, you may not use your finisher on your opponent. Using your finisher is an automatic loss of the round.
Wayne Miller: SCW trainers are helping both competitors into their corner for their rest period, but let’s talk about the rules here. Anne said “you may not use your finisher,” now does that mean they can slip around that rule by using someone else finisher?
Allie Queen: That’s a good question, Wayne. I wonder if that’s what Paige had in mind.
After two minutes, the bell rang and both competitors came out of their corners. On the stage, several SCW superstars came out to watch. Paige and Brian locked up in the center of the ring. Brian began shoving Paige, but she ducked out of his grip and he stumbled over the steel ring steps that had been forgotten until then.
Wayne Miller: Good ring awareness there by Paige.
Allie Queen: That looked like a bad fall by the challenger, hopefully he isn’t too hurt.
Paige grabbed Brian by the trunks and wrapped her arms around his head, going for a Sleeper, but Brian fought her off and shoved her into the ropes. As she rebounded, Brian took her down with a Scoop Slam. Paige quickly got to her feet, but Brian laid her out with a huge Flying Knee to her face, busting her open again.
Wayne Miller: Brian Kennedy is not giving Paige Lewis even a moment to breathe. THIS is how to control the unstoppable Paige Lewis.
Allie Queen: I agree, so far, Brian Kennedy is making good on his promise to dominate Paige Lewis.
Paige was covering her mouth as Brian advanced on her again. When he grabbed her, she shoved him backwards and then spat a black mist into his face. Brian stumbled backwards as the crowd popped. Paige then attacked, grabbing Brian’s arm, turning, and a few seconds later, she had him up in the air.
Wayne Miller: WAIT A DAMN MINUTE! THAT’S NOT HER FINISHER!!!
Allie Queen: NO, BUT IT BELONGS TO THE ONLY PERSON TO DEFEAT HER!
The arena shook as Paige took Brian to the mat with a thunderous Paraguayan Imprint. On the stage, most of the SCW roster was watching, and at the front of the group, Jessica Tendonin was standing there with her husband, holding his arm as she grinned seeing Paige nail her partner with her finisher.
Wayne Miller: CAN SHE DO THAT?!
Allie Queen: I ASSUME SO, THE REFEREE ISN’T CALLING IT!
The crowd began chanting “EXPOSE HIM” as Paige stood over Brian. When he began moving, Paige grabbed him by the trunks, locked her arms around his waist, and hit a German Suplex. Just as the referee was about to call the round, she rolled and landed a second. As she hit the third, the crowd realized she’d just stolen Brian’s own finisher.
Wayne Miller: PAIGE LEWIS IS A FINISHER STEALING MACHINE! WHAT IS SHE THINKING!?
Allie Queen: I think we now understand, finisher stealing was encouraged in this round. Brian caught on too late. I think this round might be over for him.
Paige went for the cover on Brian as the entire SCW roster was out on stage watching now.
1……..2…….KICKOUT!!!
Wayne Miller: HOW IN THE HELL DID HE KICK OUT OF ALL OF THAT???
Allie Queen: BECAUSE HE WANTS TO LEAVE AS THE SCW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION!!! HE IS REACHING DOWN INTO THE WELL!!
Paige got to her feet and began stomping away at Brian. When she stopped, she picked him up only to be shoved backwards. Brian then went for a Super Kick, Paige’s finisher, but Paige ducked, got behind him, and locked in a Rear Naked Choke.
Wayne Miller: Paige looking for another submission point, Brian needs to find the ropes, FAST!
Allie Queen: BECAUSE HE WANTS TO LEAVE AS THE SCW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION!!! HE IS REACHING DOWN INTO THE WELL!!
In the ring, Brian struggled his way forward, and after nearly a minute, he reached the ropes and Paige broke the hold. On the stage, some of the SCW staff members, such as interviewers, had even come out to watch. The crowd was roaring with excitement as the main event pressed on. The score was 3-2 in Kennedy’s favor with two rounds left to be decided, and SCW fans knew better than to call a winner just yet.
Wayne Miller: Allie, I know a lot of people were protesting Brian Kennedy getting this match tonight, feeling he didn’t deserve a shot at Paige’s championship after she’d defeated him twice already, but now, in the sixth round, I have to say, Brian is in rare form, and faring much better than he had previously.
Allie Queen: I think a lot of people counted him out early because of his previous losses against her, but tonight, Paige, and indeed all of us watching, is seeing a totally different side of Brian. I don’t think I’ve seen Paige pushed like this in a long time.
Brian was back on his feet and Paige was peering at him from the corner. The two met in the center for a test of strength. Just as they were about to lock up, Paige dropped to one knee, taking Brian down with a Fireman’s Carry and immediately locking in another Rear Naked Choke. The arena shook as the crowd cheered when Paige tucked her hand and then pulled Brian backwards into a Grapevine so that he couldn’t crawl to the ropes.
Wayne Miller: PAIGE IS GOING FOR ANOTHER SUBMISSION!!!
Allie Queen: SHE’S GOT THAT THING LOCKED UP LIKE THE FEDERAL RESERVE AND BRIAN HAS NOWHERE TO GO!!
Indeed, Brian seemed to sense he was not getting out of the submission anytime soon, and instead of wasting energy fighting it, he began tapping out. The point buzzer rang, but was not heard over the fans, and it was several moments before Anne could make the announcement.
Anne Carpenter: Brian Kennedy has submitted via Rear Naked Choke. As a result, the round has been awarded to Paige Lewis. The score is now 3 to 3, and the final round, Last Man Standing, will decided the SCW World Heavyweight Championship after a 5 minute rest period.
Wayne Miller: We’ve got a tied game!!! Whoever takes the following round, they leave with the twenty pounds of gold!
Allie Queen: Brian made the smart decision by tapping out there, but you have to wonder if he will be able to save his bid now. He cannot afford to let Paige Lewis win this next round.
Paige had exited the ring and walked up the ramp, and as she approached, camera in tow, the SCW roster parted to allow her through. Going behind the curtain, she quickly made her way to her dressing room, which was one of the closest to the entrance area. There, she found her uncle and her son. Without a word, she picked the boy up and held him, kissing his forehead.
Paige: I’ll bring it back, my baby. I’ll bring it back for you. I love you, sweet baby. I’ll bring it back to you. Uncle.
Wayne Miller: I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone do that, leave a match, albeit during a rest period, to go backstage to hold their infant.
Allie Queen: Who is gonna stop her?
The brief moment was over and Paige handed her son to her uncle and left the dressing room. Making her way back out onto the stage, Paige was met by Jessica Tendonin, who stood in her way. Paige looked around her, at Brian in the ring, who was grinning. Paige looked back up at Jessica, and raised an eyebrow. The standoff came to an end when Jessica grabbed Paige and shoved her behind her. Princess Kiya had walked out onto the stage behind Paige.
Wayne Miller: PRINCESS KIYA IS HERE!!!
Allie Queen: WE KNOW SHE STILL WANTS TO GET HER CLAWS BACK INTO PAIGE LEWIS, AFTER HAVING GUIDED HER TO THE SCW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP AND THEN LOSING HER CONTROL OVER THE LONDONER! Do you think she would DARE get involved here tonight, right now?
Wayne Miller: I think Jessica will have plenty to say about it if she tries!!!
Without taking her eyes off of the Egyptian, Jessica told Paige to go back to the ring, and the champion did so, as the five minute timer was coming to an end. As Jessica and Kiya continued sizing each other up on the ramp, Paige entered the ring just as the buzzer sounded. Brian charged at her, his grin gone. Paige dodged the attack and Brian ran into the ropes, and Paige nailed him with a Pele Kick when he rebounded. Stumbling back to his feet, Brian charged at Paige again, this time finding his target.
Wayne Miller: Last Man Standing. These two have now moved on to the most dangerous match. You have to do whatever it takes to keep your opponent from answering a count of 10.
Allie Queen: I’m not sure who this round is going to favor, as both of these stars have been giving it their all. It’s been over an hour, and Brian held control for most of the match, but we know Paige tends to get a second wind during these longer sessions.
Brian dragged Paige to a turnbuckle, ramming her shoulder first into the post. Paige groaned in pain as she was rammed a second and third time. Brian turned her around and began laying into her. One of his punches landed with devastating effect, breaking the champions nose.
Wayne Miller: Brian just put Paige’s nose in a new zip code!!!
Allie Queen: That is going to hurt in the morning!
On the stage, the confrontation between Kiya and Jessica seemed to have ended, as the Egyptian was gone and the Paraguayan had turned her attention back to the main event. Brian lifted Paige above his head in the Gorilla Press position before dropping her onto the steel steps. As the champion writhed in pain, Brian rolled out of the ring and rummaged around under the ring for a table.
Wayne Miller: Now what has he got planned here?!
Allie Queen: I’m not sure but it can’t be a fun time for Paige if he succeeds. Brian is willing to do whatever it takes to leave with the championship.
Pushing the table into the ring, Brian set it up and then positioned the steel steps under it. Turning his attention to Paige, he went to grab her by the hair, but she struck him with a low blow that brought him to his knees. She then grabbed his head, shoving it between her thighs before lifting him up for a Powerbomb. The fans screamed as she grabbed his tights and lifted him even higher before driving the challenger straight down through the table and into the stairs.
Wayne Miller: What an amazing display of strength!
Allie Queen: Elevated Powerbomb from the champion! I don’t think we’ve ever seen that from her!!!
Leaning against the ropes for support, Paige watched as the referee began counting.
1….2…3…
Brian began stirring at the three count and very slowly got to his feet. Paige mowed him down with his own sledgehammer, busting him open.
Wayne Miller: It’s like we said earlier, Paige gets a second wind after a while, and this is where she can be dangerous.
Allie Queen: Absolutely. We’ve only seen one person beat her at the long game, and that’s Jessica Tendonin. Brian Kennedy needs to neutralize Paige Lewis before it gets to that point.
Paige had dropped the sledgehammer and mounted Brian and was pounding away at his face as the crowd began her chant of “EXPOSE HIM” again. By the time Paige stopped, Brian’s face was a bloody mess and her fists were dripping with his blood. She left the ring and grabbed a steel chair from under it before returning to the ring. Brian was on one knee when Paige smacked him in the face with the chair.
Wayne Miller: Chair to the freaking face!
Allie Queen: I can’t imagine the pain either of them are in at this point.
When Brian got up again, he charged at the champion, taking her down with a clothesline. Picking her up quickly, he then delivered a DDT that seemed to daze her. Brian then took the chair and put it around Paige’s arm. With a sickening grin, he climbed the turnbuckle and as the crowd began booing, he jumped off the top and stomped on the chair. A hush went through the arena and a sickening snap was heard.
Wayne Miller: HE JUST BROKE HER FUCKING ARM!!!
Allie Queen: BRIAN KENNEDY HAS JUST BROKEN PAIGE LEWIS’ FUCKING ARM!!!
But the shock of the announcers was nothing compared to the crowd. An all out riot erupted as fans now swarmed over the barricades and rushed the ring trying to get at Brian Kennedy. Brian had nowhere to go, as the ring was surrounded. While he was focused on the fans surrounding the ring, he didn’t notice Paige pointing a rifle at him. She pulled the trigger and he was struck in the back.
Wayne Miller: WHERE DID SHE GET A GUN?!
Allie Queen: I HAVE NO IDEA!!!
Brian stumbled a bit before collapsing to the mat. Paige tossed the rifle and leaned on the ropes, favoring her arm as SCW security and local police regained control of the crowd, all while the referee began counting.
1…2…3…4…5…6…7…8…9…10!!!
It was over, Brian was still down when the ten count ended. Paige dropped to her knees, exhausted. The crowd went into a frenzy as they realized she had gone the distance and won.
Wayne Miller: It’s over! Allie, if I didn’t know any better, I’d say Paige used a tranquilizer on Brian!
Allie Queen: I believe it, but where did she get it from?
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, Brian Kennedy has failed to answer the referee’s 10 count and has lost the round. The score is now 4-3, in Paige Lewis’ favor. As a result, the winner of this match…and STILL the SCW World Heavyweight Champion…..The Unstoppable Paige Lewis!!!
As the referee presented Paige with her belts, Jessica Tendonin and company began walking down the ramp as Heart of a Champion hit the PA system. Entering the ring, Jessica helped Paige to her feet. Paige’s parents were invited to the ring as well and Urakih held the ropes open for them. They rushed to Paige and hugged her and showered her with kisses and concern over her arm.
Wayne Miller: I’m watching the instant replay here from camera 5, and it looks like Paige took the hunting rifle from inside the ringpost! She must have had it stashed there for the whole match!
Allie Queen: On paper, this match favored Kennedy, but Paige was playing chess and seems to have planned for everything. The assist from Brewster, the rules in the no finisher round, and then the tranquilizer in the final round. Paige’s plan all along was to pick up 3 points by the final round, and then use the rifle, I think.
Wayne Miller: How do you defeat someone who plans ahead like that?
Allie Queen: Wayne, as we’ve just seen…you don’t. Tonight, Brian had a chance to prove that Jessica defeating Paige wasn’t a fluke. He failed. Tonight, I think the entire world has come to terms, yet again, with one simple fact; Paige Lewis is the face of the SCW. Paige Lewis is the real deal.
The show closed with Jessica raising Paige’s hand, and her parents holding up her belts. Domination was over.
Winner: Paige Lewis

Feed fades in to show the SCW commentary team of Allie Queen and Wayne Miller.
Allie Queen: Welcome to Overdrive ladies and gentlemen, tonight we have a championship match for you! One of SCW’s newest signees will find himself locked inside of a cage with a chance to leave with the International Heavyweight Championship!
Wayne Miller: Yeah, and can you imagine if he actually succeeds? But even bigger than that, the main event pits Fathi against Tyler Cross! I can’t wait to see THAT match!
After the commercial break, James Roads was already in the ring, waiting for his partner. Hex Girl by the Hex Girls blasts over the PA. After a few moments Hex Girl runs out and down to the ring. She slides into the ring, popping up and hits James Roads with a spinning heel kick to the midsection causing him to double over. She then grabs his head and drives her knee up into his face. Not letting go of his head she changes her grip and position and drives him to the mat with a bulldog DDT laying him out on the mat. She then gets up and walks to the corner asking for a microphone. One is handed to her and she addresses the audience.
Hex Girl: I see a lot of confused faces in the crowd. (She gives a wicked grin.) I know y’all were expecting to see a tag team match right now. But someone decided to be a disappointment and not show up. That’s why I’m here. I believe fans should get what they pay for.
The crowd gives a small pop in agreement with her.
Hex Girl: Y’all paid to see someone get their ass whooped. AM I RIGHT!?
The crowd shouts in response.
Hex Girl: You call that an answer? Try that again. AM I RIGHT!?
The crowd cheers and shouts louder in response.
Hex Girl: I think you LA fans can do better than that. Come on one more time. AM. I. RIGHT!?
This time the crowd response is absolutely thunderous and she’s grinning like a Cheshire cat.
Hex Girl: There ya go I knew ya had it in ya. (She looks down at Roads.) Roads I’m sure you came out here with the full intent of stompin a mudhole in Creed and Knight but that wasn’t in the cards for you I’m afraid. Instead you became my sacrifice. (She then looks towards the stage.) To those backstage who know me from NCW I made an announcement at the last show we had. I said I wanted to revive The Sorority, I intend to continue with that goal here in SCW. Ladies if you wish to join let me know if you don’t…well that’s your choice and your pain.
She drops the microphone on top of James Roads and leaves the ring.
Allie Queen: Hex Girl has come to SCW, and she has just put everyone on notice that she is bringing in The Sorority!
Wayne Miller: The what? Whatever, we have another commercial break.
Dark Tiger is seen standing in the ring as The Empire starts making their ways through the crowd. Dario looks at Dark Tiger and hits him with a huge clothesline. Brian, Tyler, Mr. Creed, and Stalker get in the ring, Brian grabs Dark Tiger and hits The War Cry and Mr. Creed picks him up, tossing him out of the ring. They all smirk as Stalker hands Dario his Empire T.Shirt.
Brian: You know, Dario joining The Empire was something that should have been done sooner. I mean shit, this man was on a roll in NCW and was about to be offered a spot in The Foundation. But, Dario this is something much more. The Legacy of The Empire has been built on the blood, sweat and tears of every victim. The monster we have been seeing needs to be unleashed each and every time you step in the ring.
He pauses and looks around for a moment. Nodding his head he smiles.
Brian: Speaking of victims Hex Girl took care of all the light work for Stalker and Creed. This leaves Tyler. We all know what I’m talking about. Well, Fathi, you’ve been like a brother to me. And while you keep talking about your Title runs in NCW. While you might have won the Pinnacle Title at Genocide. Let’s not forget. I am the ONLY undisputed Tag Team Champion from NCW. Why? Because NO ONE could take it from around my waist once I got my hands on it. While I was the one who walked away from Thug Revolution. I also took the NCW Tag Titles with me. And all this talk. Yea you got a win over me. That was because Demarcus Jones and Grant Lewis beat the shit out of me after I earned the shot at the World Title after we first formed Thug Revolution in GFW. Did you forget? Ever since that day you have only had One Chance at facing off against me. You come out to that arena that night. You could have come for Mr. Creed and myself to reclaim the Tag Titles and what did you do? You turned around and left Hex Girl hanging.
The crowd starts chanting: Where did you go?
Brian: So the fact that you know that one win you hold as some sort of claim to fame is shut down. Because when Business needed to be handled you turned and walked away. Fathi you know that win was a fluke. You know that on another night it would have been my hand raised. I AM THE IRON MAN OF NCW. I set the record for the longest time in that match in NCW history. Mr. Creed has the record for most eliminations in that match. And Fathi, what do you have? A run as Tag Champion because of me. Cause you know. I’m the man when it comes to that Tag Division. A Pinnacle Title that you won and never defended and the BAMF and Pride of the people. While you might have held some weight with your name in NCW and other companies around this business. You’re in SCW now brother. Everything you have done before here doesn’t count for shit. Just like me. The difference here is, I am one half of the SCW Undisputed Tag Team Champions for about 3 years now. I am a former World Champion and looking for my 2nd time now. Fathi, unless you wanna find a partner and come for my gold, or wanna go another round then I am asking this one time politely. Keep my name out of your fuckin mouth. Cause brother. Family fights. Because the facts are these right here, you got that fluke and the only other chance you had to prove it wasn’t a fluke you chose to turn around and walk away. With that being said. DARIO IS FUCKING EMPIRE and the locker room has been put on notice. We are not stopping here. Don’t take it personally, we are just doing what’s good for business. And from the looks of it.
He pauses and looks around the group.
Brian: (The crowd says with him) Business is really damn good.
He drops the mic.

Wayne Miller: This next match has had fans buzzing for weeks, Allie. We haven’t seen Adatu Urakih in action since the night she won the SCW International Heavyweight Championship. As we both remember, on that night, she suffered the same fate as her mentor, Jessica Tendonin, a broken arm at the hands of Larissa. Urakih, however, managed to leave the match with the belt.
Allie Queen: And at our last event, she interrupted the celebration of Dean Tyler who was successful in his SCW debut. The pair were likely on the edge of trading blows before Neela stepped in.
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is scheduled to be contested under Steel Cage rules, and it is for the SCW International Heavyweight Championship!!! Introducing first…DANGEROUS DEAN TYLER.
The song Unscripted Violence by Violent Idols starts to blast over the PA system. The man who is known as ” Dangerous” Dean Tyler starts to come on out being accompanied to the ring by his brother, ” Sadistic” Sami Tyler. Dean’s seen carrying a switchblade with him. He gets in the ring and goes to trash talk about what he wants to do to his opponent while having a great smile on his face as his music fades out.
Wayne Miller: In one of her first matches in SCW, Urakih actually made someone quit on national TV.
Allie Queen: I remember. This Urakih is unlike any other person to lace them up in an SCW ring. Dean Tyler has an opportunity to send a message, though. Imagine the look on the faces of the Order of the Dragon if Urakih isn’t victorious here tonight?
The titantron came to life now, and the audience turned to see it. The view was from a helicopter, and the camera-person was focusing on three vehicles that appeared to be speeding.
Wayne Miller: What the hell is this?
Allie Queen: I have no idea…wait! They’re heading for the arena!!!
The three vehicles were indeed arriving at the arena. In the parking garage, Cassie Mason is seen running towards the entrance just as the three vehicles cruised inside. The first vehicle sat low and wide, and the engine roared so loud that the ground shook. A custom built Dodge Demon, black with a fearsome dragon vinyl on the hood.
Allie Queen: Oh, I think I know who that is!!! I wondered if we’d be seeing her!
The second vehicle was a Nissan GT-R NISMO, in a bright yellow color with dual black stripes down the middle. The third vehicle was an SUV, and painted a bright red color.
Wayne Miller: Is that a damn Lambo Rambo?!?!
Cassie Mason stayed ready with her mic as the three vehicles powered down and the doors opened. Unsurprisingly, the mopar expelled Jessica Tendonin, SCW’s only grand slam champion. The Japanese car affectionately called Godzilla was driven by the 4th and Beloved of Alcatelia, the Japanese Dragon, the Machine from Musashino, the Daughter of Hell…Adatu Urakih.
Wayne Miller: There’s the champion and her mentor, so who’s in the lambo??
As if answering his question, the driver of the LM002 stepped out, her wavy blonde hair seeming to be caught in a breeze.
Wayne Miller: Jessica’s lieutenant, Candice, being here must mean they expect trouble! And just think, we still have no word on…her!
Cassie ran over to Urakih as she was removing the championship from the passenger seat and began to speak, but Jessica held up a hand to stop her.
Jessica: No, you will not be conducting an interview right now. You want to speak to the International Heavyweight Champion, you contact my second in command and schedule it. You don’t ambush Uri right before the biggest match yet during SCW’s return. On me, ladies.
And with that, the three Dragon’s marched off in the direction of the ring.
Anne Carpenter: And his opponent, representing The Order of The Dragon, hailing from Musashino, Tokyo, Japan…she weighed in at one hundred and sixty-seven pounds this morning…she is the REIGNING AND DEFENDING…S…C…W…INTERNATIONAL HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION!!! ADATU URAKIH!!!
The arena was dimmed now and Some Bodies Gonna Get It by Three 6 Mafia began playing. The crowd began screaming and chanting the lyrics.
Allie Queen: Think we’re gonna hear her chant tonight?
Wayne Miller: Ooooh, you just KNOW they are gon-
Wayne was drowned out now as Urakih walked out onto the stage, the SCW International Heavyweight Championship strapped around her waist. The crowd began screaming even louder now, and Urakih beamed as Jessica and Candice flanked her and the trio began walking down to the ring. Dean watched the three of them, looking back and forth to the steel cage suspended above the ring. Urakih reached the foot of the ring and turned to Jessica and Candice who had slowed their pace.The camera angle changed, and the champion was seen signing “I will bring this back to you, master” as she tapped the championship.
Allie Queen: If Dean Tyler can somehow defeat Urakih for the championship here tonight, he is walking into SCW with two massive upsets, and the distinction of being the only person to defeat Emily Desmond AND Adatu Urakih. Imagine what that will do for his reputation around here!
Wayne Miller: It’s do or die time for the new SCW star. A win here catapults him into the history books. A loss, well…
Urakih climbed inside the ring now, and unstrapped the championship, staring at it for a moment before passing it to the referee. A second referee had already checked Dean for weapons and she came over to check Urakih.
Allie Queen: This is actually Urakih’s first defense since winning the championship off of Larissa a few years ago, and as far as we know, she has not competed since that night.
Wayne Miller: Obviously her arm is no longer broken, but you have to wonder if there’s any ring rust. I hear she had another kid during the hiatus, as well, a little girl.
In the ring, both competitors were checked and cleared. The inside referee held the SCW International Heavyweight Championship up in the air before passing it to the timekeeper and signalling for the cage to be lowered.
Allie Queen: She could have had a hundred kids, and I still would not want to be locked in that cage with her, especially given she has vowed to make Dean Tyler tap out here tonight.
Wayne Miller: I think her exact words were that she was going to break Dean down to an atomic level until all he can do is tap out. And dammit, I can’t wait for this match to start! Dean Tyler could take it home tonight! Remember, this is the guy who defeated Emily Desmond on his first night! Desmond was unstoppable, and the only person before this who was able to topple her was Paige Lewis, our dual champion!
The bell rang as the cage was secured to the ring. The crowd was still loud and buzzing. Dean’s brother was in his corner on the outside, While Jessica and Candice stood opposite. Dean Tyler stormed towards Urakih and attempted a clothesline, but Urakih sidestepped him, caught his arm and put him in a half nelson, and with an impressive display of strength, she lifted him into the air before driving him down into her waiting knee.
Allie Queen: There was no rust in that half nelson backbreaker, my gosh!!!
Wayne Miller: None at all, but Dean Tyler still has plenty of fighter left in him.
Dean is back on his feet after a few seconds, and he and Urakih begin trading blows. Dean, bigger and stronger, was tanking Urakih’s lefts and rights while overpowering her with his own. Urakih stumbled backwards as he caught her chin, and the crowd gasped as she was knocked out. Dean looked around in shock before going for the cover.
Allie Queen: IS THIS FUCKING REAL?! DEAN TYLER JUST KNOCKED OUT ADATU URAKIH!!!
Wayne Miller: WE ARE GOING TO HAVE A NEW INTERNATIONAL CHAMPION!!!
The referee drops to the mat to begin the count as the crowd screams in anger. A collective scream of relief rippled through the crowd as Urakih got her shoulder up on the count of 2. Dean is stunned as he rolls away from the champion.
Allie Queen: This match was very nearly over in a heartbeat, just like Dean’s debut, and with a massive upset.
Wayne Miller: Still, how many people can say they’ve knocked out the Japanese Dragon?
Back on her feet, Urakih was still clearly dazed, and Dean took advantage of this by mowing her over with a shoulder block. He grabbed her by the hair and pulled her to her feet before driving his knee into her midsection. Urakih clasped her fingers to block the knee strike, and then wrapped her arms around his waist. Planting her feet and steeling her stance, Urakih lifted Dean off the mat in a bearhug. Dean began struggling and raining blows upon her back and shoulders.
Allie Queen: Urakih said she was going to make him tap out, and a bearhug is a good start in that direction.
Wayne Miller: Submissions have never been Urakih’s preferred way to end a match, which could work to Dean’s advantage. Urakih likes to beat the hell out of her opponents and then pin them.
Dean managed to slither out of the hold, but Urakih grabbed his arm and whipped him into a corner and ran after him. Dean turned and drove his elbow backwards and into Urakih’s face, busting her open. The champion staggered back, but Dean stayed on the offensive, taking her down with a clothesline. On the outside, his brother was cheering him on, while Jessica was watching intently, silently, whereas Candice was scanning the arena.
Allie Queen: If Urakih wins here tonight, we have to wonder who will challenge her for the championship at the Pay Per View.
Wayne Miller: A question for later, right now Urakih needs to focus on the fact that she’s not totally running through Dean Tyler.
Urakih was on her feet guarding her head from punches from Dean. Dean drove his knee into her midsection, sending her to her knees. The referee came over to check on the bleeding champion, but Urakih shoved the masked woman away before tackling Dean to the mat. Dean got his hands up, but not before Urakih managed to bust his lip. The referee pulled Urakih off of Dean and forced her into a corner, separating the pair.
Allie Queen: Both of them have been busted open now, we’ll see how Dean fares with blood loss, Urakih’s has been moving a bit slower.
Wayne Miller: Let’s not forget, we don’t know what the status is on Paige Lewis, so we may well be seeing the winner of this match in the main event of the pay per view.
Dean got to his feet and wiped his mouth, smiling at the blood. Across the ring, Urakih smiled as well. The referee stepped back and in an instant, Champion and Challenger collided in the center of the ring, their heads bouncing off of each other. Both grinned before smashing into each other again. Both had fresh bleeding gashes in their foreheads a moment later. Urakih was a bit wobbly on her feet, and Dean capitalized, pulling her into an Underhook.
Allie Queen: Dean is looking for that Arrow of his!
Wayne Miller: And if he manages to nail it, I have to believe he is leaving as the new champion!!!
Dean drove Urakih into the mat head first and the crowd roared with disapproval as he stood and smiled. Dean turned and taunted Jessica Tendonin and Candice Karicia Kingston. Jessica said something and this enraged him and he began climbing out of the cage. Halfway to the top, someone grabbed his foot! Urakih was up and she had crossed the ring while Dean had his back turned.
Allie Queen: Dean was seconds away from possibly securing some SCW gold!
Wayne Miller: What is Urakih doing! Wait, that’s not her finisher!
In the ring, Urakih had yanked Dean off the cage wall, and a few seconds later, she had taken one of his arms and tilted him into the air, ready to nail him with her mentor’s finisher, the Paraguayan Imprint. Dean wiggled out of it, but Urakih swept his legs out from under him. Dean rolled to his feet and threw a heavy right before Urakih could block it, and her nose seemed to move 6 inches in the opposite direction.
Allie Queen: First he knocks her out, and now he has broken her nose! Dean Tyler is punishing Urakih and manhandling her in a way that we’ve never seen before!
Wayne Miller: No shit, we might have counted him out too early!
Clutching at her face, Urakih is almost caught with a Diamond Cutter, but she shoves Dean Tyler off. She then dropped to her knees and let out a feral scream. The crowd reacted with a thunderous cheer before chanting.
“URAKIH IS GONNA KILL YOU!”
Allie Queen: I think we’re about to see a huge turning point in this match.
Wayne Miller: Just cause they’re chanting her warcry, that doesn’t mean it is over. So far, Dean Tyler is handling himself very well against the undefeated champion.
“URAKIH IS GONNA KILL YOU!”
Dean grabbed Urakih by the hair even as the crowd continued chanting, and sent her down to the mat with another Dean’s Arrow. Dean got to his feet and Urakih rolled over cackling. When she was on her feet, Dean looked at her shocked, before he lined up a third Arrow. The crowd continued their chant and after a moment, Urakih began cackling again as she struggled to her knees.
“URAKIH IS GONNA KILL YOU!”
Allie Queen: Three of his Finishers and Urakih is LITERALLY laughing them off!
Wayne Miller: This match has been fast paced and bloody, and I think we’re coming upon the end of it here.
“URAKIH IS GONNA KILL YOU!”
Dean charged at Urakih, and she kicked him in the face, sending him staging backwards. Urakih slipped under Dean and lifted him into a Fireman Carry position, and then turned him upside down in the Piledriver position.
Allie Queen: She’s sending him to the river!
Wayne Miller: KANDA RIVER PLUNGE!!!
Urakih took several steps while holding Dean before suddenly leaping and driving his head into the mat. The crowd roared with approval as the Champion knelt while grinning from a blood covered face.
Allie Queen: Urakih needs to cover Dean NOW!!!
Wayne Miller: I don’t believe it, Dean is moving!!!
Urakih got to her feet and pulled Dean up and began wailing on him. She managed to land a heavy right on his chin, stunning him. She rushed him and then sent him to the mat with an O-Goshi, a judo throw. Urakih then circled around to Dean’s feet and grabbed them, and a few seconds later, she had locked in the Sharpshooter. Dean began struggling, but they were in the center of the ring.
Allie Queen: She’s got that Sharpshooter locked in tight! Dean has nowhere to go!!!
Wayne Miller: She said she was going to make him tap out, and we just may see that happen!
Urakih beamed as the crowd became deafening as she leaned back to increase the pressure on Dean’s spine. The crowd began chanting even louder.
“KILL HIM! KILL HIM! KILL HIM!”
Allie Queen: This crowd is becoming belligerent! If this match isn’t over soon, we may have a problem!
Wayne Miller: Oh nonsense!
Urakih leaned back further and with a blood curdling scream Dean began tapping out. The crowd erupted as the bell rang and Urakih released the hold.
Allie Queen: IT’S OVER!!! URAKIH WINS!!!
Wayne Miller: DEAN TYLER TAPPED OUT!!! URAKIH IS LEAVING WITH THE INTERNATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP!!!
The championship was passed to the female referee inside the cage and then handed to Urakih as Anne began making the announcement.
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of this match, by submission, and STILL YOUR SCW INTERNATIONAL HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION…ADATU URAKIH!!!
Urakih beamed as she held the championship above her head. For a moment she celebrated, and smiled to her fellow Dragon’s outside the cage. Then, she turned around and the referee kicked her in the gut before delivering a Hammerlock DDT.
Allie Queen: WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING!!!???
Wayne Miller: THE REFEREE JUST ATTACKED THE CHAMPION, WHAT IN THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE!?!?
As Jessica and Candice began trying to bust open the door to the cage, the referee removed her N95 mask.
Allie Queen: WAYNE!!! THAT’S JENSEN KIDD! WHAT IS SHE DOING HERE?!
Wayne Miller: I DON’T KNOW, BUT SHE BETTER MAKE HERSELF SCARCE BECAUSE THIS CROWD IS OUT OF CONTROL NOW!
Indeed, several fans had jumped over the barricade. As Jessica and Candice began scaling the cage, Kidd reached for a rope that had been lowered into the ring. As Jessica reached the top of the cage, Kidd was raised into the air. Jessica leapt forward, but missed her and crashed and burned on the mat below. By the time Jessica got to her feet, Kidd was gone and Urakih was stirring.
Allie Queen: Urakih defends the International strap amid controversy after the finish.
Wayne Miller: I think Urakih wants to say something, she’s gesturing for a mic now that the cage is being raised.
Urakih was gasping for breath for a few seconds before she spoke. Adjusting her championship on her shoulder, she roared into the microphone.
Adatu Urakih: First of fucking all, get this loser out of my ring!!! Dangerous my ass!!! Second, I don’t know how things are done in whatever backwater federations Jensen Kidd is used to, but we don’t do that shit here in SCW. Disguising herself as a referee and then attacking me after the match? Tell you what, bitch. You want a piece of me? Then come fight me straight up. Don’t jump me after a match. I’ll beat your ass in any kind of match there is! I’ll even let you pick the match and rules! Nobody sneak attacks me and gets away with it!
Urakih slammed the microphone and stormed out of the ring, Jessica and Candice in tow.
Allie Queen: I think Urakih just laid down the challenge to Jensen Kidd!!
Wayne Miller: It sure looks that way! We’ve got a quick commercial break, and then it’s time for our main event!
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is your main event of the evening, and it is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, FATHI!!!
The area near the rampway darkens. Red lights strobe on the right of the entrance and blue on the left. Seconds later we hear a siren followed by the opening words over the pa system:
No surrender, no…surrender
As the lyrics begin saying no surrender a video begins on the tron showing caution tape and someone facing away from the camera crying. As the lyrics kick in at 15 seconds Fathi emerges from the otherside of the tape on the video smiling. The word: FATHI appears in Arabic under his face ( فتحي )
As the word Fathi appears under the face of Fathi the man himself emerges at the top of the rampway wearing black boots, dark Southpole jeans and a black hoodie with a murderous rage in his eyes. Unzipping the black hoodie he reveals a black plain t-shirt. Tossing the hoodie to the side Fathi baseball slides into the ring.
Anne Carpenter: And his opponent, from Cameron, North Carolina, The Extremist Tyler Cross!!
“Unforgiven II” by Metallica blares over the PA system as Tyler Cross walks out onto the ramp with Brian Kennedy at his side, smoking a cigarette he raises his hands into a X symbol then carries on down the rampway smoking, he enters the ring and flicks the end of his cigarette at his opponent.
Allie Queen: We’re just about ready for this main event here, and after that Cage Match, and the controversy after it, this has become a crazy night.
Wayne Miller: And there is the bell!
As soon as the bell rang, Fathi came flying out of the traps charging Cross down, taking him down to the mat with a spear. He continues his assault by mounting Cross where he lays into him with some heavy punches.
Allie Queen: Fathi going after Cross after those comments leading up to this match!
Wayne Miller: And rightly so because he has everything to lose if this match goes badly.
Fathi finishes his assault on Cross leaving the former NCW BAMF champ in corner. Fathi then starts walking around the ring shouting to the crowd while leaving Cross not knowing what to do, or whats coming next. Fathi takes out a blackjack
Allie Queen: Fathi is pumped up! Look he has the blackjack!
Fathi hits Cross across his head as he stands up, splitting Tyler’s forehead open. Brian takes the blackjack as Fathi tosses it away. He leans down talking trash to Tyler.
Wayne Miller: And I don’t think Cross knew what just hit him!
Cross pulls himself up and gets back to his feet, Fathi watching his every move. Tyler composes himself then walks into the middle of the ring. Staring at Fathi dead in his eyes, blood streaming down his face. Not one to back down Fathi meets his challenger face to face. He starts mouthing off to Cross who has a few words to say himself.
Allie Queen: This is heating up fast!
The two of them exchange words when all of a sudden Tyler slaps Fathi across the face which makes the crowd gasp. Fathi isn’t having any of it and pushes Cross in retaliation, the crowd reacting with another gasp. Tyler laughs at Fathi then pushes him down with a shoulder thrust which his drives the Rabid Curr back into the nearest turnbuckle. He keeps on the pressure with more shoulders thrusts, pasting Fathi in the corner. Tyler lets up then backs away from Fathi giving him some space. Then he runs in driving his knee hard into the jaw of Fathi.
Wayne Miller: You can feel the tension in the air can’t you guys.
Allie Queen: Imagine what’s gonna happen next!
Both men step towards the center of the ring. Fathi looks to take advantage of the situation by trying to catch Cross off guard with a cheeky right hook. But Tyler reads the play and ducks out of harms way, coming up behind Fathi. Tyler grabs the Rabid Curr and looks for a quick back drop. Fathi has other ideas and manages to flip out of the move, landing on his feet.
Allie Queen: Nice agility from Fathi to get out of that move.
Cross hasn’t noticed Fathi allowing him to nail Cross from behind with a nice standing drop kick. Tyler looses his footing and lands on the ropes where he try’s to steady himself but ends up toppling over the ropes to the outside.
Wayne Miller: Cross sent over the top rope and he’s not happy about it! He landed right beside Brian.
Allie Queen: Look! Brian just slipped Tyler the blackjack! I wondered why he grabbed it.
Cross manages to get to his feet as Brian is giving a few pointers to Tyler. He looks back to the ring to see Fathi is calling for him to come and get him.
Allie Queen: The Rabid Curr is taunting Tyler. Brian seems like he is laying out some plans. After the earlier comments I wonder if he is gonna get involved in this match. There is no DQ and so far it’s been one on one.
Wayne Miller: I wonder if Fathi is talking to Tyler or to the both of them! The Empire is here in full force!
Tyler and Fathi are now standing face to face. This is where the two of them start to brawl, this really starts to get the crowd going.
Allie Queen: Both men slugging it out for the upper hand!
Both men go back and forth with big punches until Cross manages to block an incoming jab from Fathi, giving him the breakthrough he’s been looking for. Tyler fights Fathi to the ropes with everything he’s got. Soon Fathi is helpless and stuck on the ropes. Cross takes a step back then lunges in, taking Fathi off his feet and over the top
Wayne Miller: Fathi sent for a ride over the top rope!
Like Cross, Fathi falls to where Brian is. It takes him a second to recover. He looks back in the ring to see Tyler standing tall. Instead of rushing back into the ring like Cross did, Fathi cautiously steps on to the apron. Looking back and forth between Brian and Tyler. At first it looks like Cross might give Fathi the space it enter the ring but as Fathi steps through the ropes Tyler jumps him.
Allie Queen: Cross not showing Fathi the same courtesy he was shown by his opponent.
Wayne Miller: Maybe so but it’s a smart move on his behalf.
Cross is beating Fathi with a double axe handle before scooping him and plants him with a DDT before quickly hooking the leg.
Allie Queen: Cover by Cross!
1…
2…
Wayne Miller: Only a two from Tyler Cross!
Trying to keep the pressure on Tyler puts Fathi in a cross face. Fathi sees the danger and starts scrambling to the ropes, Tyler doing his best to lock in the move. Near the ropes Cross finally locks in the cross face but Fathi is able to get his hand on the bottom rope.
Allie Queen: Tyler looking to end it with a cross face but Fathi managed to get to the ropes.
Wayne Miller: Fathi showed his years of experience here. He got out of it and it seems like Tyler isn’t too happy.
Allie Queen: Yea, that’s true but Tyler isn’t letting go. It’s a no DQ!
Wayne Miller: The ref is checking Fathi! It seems like he is out. The ref is raising Fathi’s hand.
1…
2…
2.9…
At the last second Fathi keeps his hand up, Tyler breaks the hold but the damage has been done. He is quickly back to his feet where he nails Fathi with a couple of kicks for good measure. That’s when he sees his chance to head to the top rope.
Allie Queen: Tyler is going up top!
Wayne Miller: This match is really getting into its stride.
Cross takes to the top rope. He looks down on Fathi who laid out, struggling to recover or so you think. Suddenly then the Rabid Curr springs to life and charges up the turnbuckle where he grabs Tyler around the waist looking for a belly to belly of the top rope.
Allie Queen: Fathi is going for the belly to belly suplex off the top rope and this could end Tyler’s night before it’s even started!
Fathi gives it his all, doing his best to nail Cross with the belly to belly but Tyler fights him all the way. Tyler then catches Fathi with a head butt forcing him to release his hold on Tyler. Fathi loses his footing allowing Cross to simply pushes him off the top rope and down to the mat below.
Wayne Miller: Cross putting Fathi in his place!
Fathi is laid out and Tyler sees an opening. He picks himself up and stands on the top rope, the crowd watching to see what he will do next. Cross composes himself then leaps off the top rope. Camera flashes go off around the arena as Cross looks for the diving head butt. it looks as if he is going to connect but at the last second Fathi rolls out of harms way.
Allie Queen: Tyler Cross is looking for the diving head butt but all he finds is canvas!
Wayne Miller: Both men are down!
Allie Queen: Wait Fathi is taking advantage of Tyler’s mistake!
Wayne Miller: Cover!

Allie Queen: Tyler gets the shoulder up!
Fathi is starting to feel strain but is first to his feet, Cross on the other hand is slower to recover. Fathi stands over the down Cross waiting for him to get up, taking his time not to rush or use up extra energy.
Wayne Miller: Fathi is stalking Cross here!
Allie Queen: He’s got that look in his eye, he’s up to something.
Cross finally makes it to his feet but doesn’t have time to shake off the cob webs because Fathi is straight on him. Fathi puts him in a normal sleeper then attempts to grab him by the chin with his fingers.
Wayne Miller: Fathi going for a sleeper hold! This might be it for Tyler!
Allie Queen: Tyler is fighting hard to keep him at bay!
Tyler shakes his head violently preventing Fathi from fully executing the hold, he also tries to shake Fathi off he is going nowhere. The sleeper on its own is starting to affect Tyler, so thinking fast he drops to the mat managing to hit Fathi with a stunner.
Wayne Miller: Tyler countering the sleeper with a stunner!
Fathi flies backwards where he is caught by the turnbuckle. But that only bounces him back towards Tyler. At first Cross doesn’t seem to notice Fathi. It’s only when Fathi stumbles into him he reacts. Even though Fathi isn’t posing a threat Tyler puts him down with a well-timed Strike. He follows the Strike up by rolling the Rabid Curr over and covering him.
Allie Queen: Cover by Tyler.

Tyler doesn’t let the failed pin affect him as he forces Fathi to his feet where he positions him for a suplex. He lifts Fathi up and holds him in the air for the crowd to marvel at.
Wayne Miller: Impressive strength shown by Tyler Cross here ladies and gentlemen.
Camera flashes go off around the arena but before Tyler can drop Fathi, he shifts his weight. This puts off Cross, preventing him from hitting a move on Fathi. Instead Fathi is able to wiggle free and land on his feet, with both him and Cross still locked in a tie up. Fathi then powers Cross off, lifting him into the air before dropping him down with perfect suplex.
Allie Queen: Fathi showing how powerful he is with a nice reversal and suplex!
Wayne Miller: Fathi following up with a cover.

2.4…
Allie Queen: Nowhere near enough to keep Cross down!
Wayne Miller: Fathi is the first to show signs of frustration.
Allie Queen: He must be mad if he thought he was going to put Cross away with a suplex!
Fathi takes a few deep breaths, getting his head in the right place. He then forces Tyler up off the mat giving him no time to recover. Fathi lands a few punches on Tyler to soften him up as he drags him into the nearest corner. Once he has Cross where he wants him Fathi scoops him up onto the top rope before mounting the turnbuckle himself.
Wayne Miller: Fathi is going up top!
Allie Queen: Lets hope this doesn’t backfire like it did earlier.
Fathi hooks Cross by the head as he gets ready to attempt a DDT
Wayne Miller: I think Fathi is going to try for that top rope DDT.
Allie Queen: But Cross is holding on.
Tyler holds onto the top rope, holding on for dear life. Fathi tries his hardest to take Tyler down.
Wayne Miller: One wrong move and Fathi will take himself off the turnbuckle!
Fathi is right on the edge by Tyler won’t budge. Fathi lets up for a second to refocus is efforts but as he does so this allows Cross to thumb Fathi in the eye. Fathi releases his grip on Tyler who pushes him off the top turnbuckle for the second time. But this time Fathi hits the mat hard.
Allie Queen: Tyler Cross with the thumb to the eye!
Wayne Miller: Fathi hit the mat hard that time!
Allie Queen: He also failed while on the top rope for a second time!
Tyler looks down on Fathi finding himself looking over the Rabid Curr again. He stands up, perching himself on the top rope before taking to the air looking for a swanton bomb. But again Fathi sees the incoming threat and rolls over trying to escape harms way. Tyler hits him just as Fathi tries to escape.
Wayne Miller: Tyler lands it! OMG!!!
Allie Queen: Fathi failed twice with a top rope move, now Tyler hits a swanton from the top rope! Who’d have thought it!
Fathi rolls in pain as Tyler gets to his feet. Brian slides a few chairs in the ring.
Wayne Miller: This is what Brian was waiting for. Tyler to get the edge on Fathi.
Tyler sets up a chair in the middle of the ring. Then one in the corner. Fathi is getting to his feet as Brian tries to warn him. Fathi gets a chair in his hand. As Tyler goes to turn around Fathi lands a huge blow to Tyler in his head. Fathi, wasting no time, points the chair at Brian and goes to hit Tyler again as he gets to his feet. Fathi swings for the stars as Cross ducks the swing and clotheslines Fathi hard to the mat. He picks him up then hits a Irish whip on Fathi into the chair that was set in the corner. Tyler takes out the Blackjack running he uses the chair to leap high in the air as camera flashes flow around the arena as Tyler lands hitting Fathi with his own blackjack. He goes for the pin..
Allie Queen: Cover!

Wayne Miller: KICK OUT!
Allie Queen: How the hell did Fathi kick out of that?
Cross rolls on to his back and clutches his face, he can’t believe it and neither can the crowd who begin to chant *SCW-SCW-SCW*.
Wayne Miller: What a match!
Tyler looks at Brian who gives him a nod. Tyler smirks as he takes out lighter fluid from his pocket. Fathi is laying on the canvas as he pours it on him. Fathi tries to fight back but Tyler has already done to much damage to the Rabid Curr as Tyler lights him on fire. Fathi is burning in flames as Tyler hits him hard across the head with the blackjack a second time. This time Fathi falls to the mat as he is knocked out from the blow.
Allie Queen: And a title isn’t even on the line!
Tyler goes to the top rope and hits another swanton bomb going for the pin!

Allie Queen: He got it! TYLER WINS Tyler Cross just brought a huge win home home The Empire!
Wayne Miller: Fathi gets the shoulder up but it’s too late!
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, Here is your winner, Tyler Cross!!!
Brian gets in the ring with Tyler as the rest of the Empire comes out to celebrate with their team mate. Tyler and Brian are greeting Stalker and Creed as Fathi is on the outside looking at them with hate in his eyes as he walks up the ramp. Brian asks for a microphone.
Brian: Hey, we’re not done here tonight. As you all see, The Empire is about our business, but so am I. A while back, I was promised something, and it still hasn’t been delivered. I don’t know if she’s back there or not, or if she is even watching, but I’m calling on Paige Lewis! I want my shot at the World Heavyweight Championship of SCW! This match was supposed to have happened already, but you’re ass went and got abducted right before the pay per view.
Allie Queen: We haven’t seen head nor tails of Paige Lewis since we returned to the air, we have no clue where the world champion is, and Brian is trying to call her out?
Wayne Miller: She’s already beaten him twice though, what makes Brian think he can beat her now?
Brian: I am not leaving this ring until I get an answer I like, I want Paige Lewis vs Brian Kennedy, with the World Heavyweight Championship on the lin-
Before Brian could finish, the PA system came to life as Heart of a Champion by Hollywood Undead began playing.
Allie Queen: Wait, whose music is that? Brian won’t be happy about this interruption!
Wayne Miller: I have no clue!
At the fifty second mark, a woman walked out onto the stage, both of her shoulders laden with gold, and the arena erupted in applause.
Allie Queen: SHE’S HERE!!! THE CHAMPION IS HERE!!!
Wayne Miller: PAIGE LEWIS HAS ARRIVED!!! BRIAN MIGHT GET WHAT HE ASKED FOR AFTER ALL!!!
With the SCW Alternative Championship on one shoulder and SCW World Heavyweight Championship on the other, Paige Lewis stood on the stage looking around the arena for a moment, smiling. Paige then began making her way down the ramp, stopping a few times to pose for photos with fans. Reaching the ring, Paige quickly ascended the stairs and climbed through the ropes. Someone handed her a mic as her music died down.
Paige Lewis: Brian Kennedy, the man who swears he is at the top of SCW. In case you need a reminder…the man at the top of SCW…is ME! I have beaten anyone who was anyone to beat in SCW for the last few years. Jessica Tendonin, Priest, Alzy Hawkshaw, Larissa, Emily Desmond, hell…I even beat you twice. So, for you to come out here with your mates and demand I defend this championship against you just because a previous match never happened, it’s laughable.
Brian: Don’t tell me you’re afraid? Listen, I understand. You’re standing here alone, and I’m here with the Empire. You can have anyone you want in your corner, you can even pick the match. But I want my shot.
Paige Lewis: Mate, I do not give a single solitary individual fuck about you having to be surrounded by your boys to get the courage to call me out. I’ll beat them and you right here and right now!
The rest of the Empire stepped forward as if planning to take Paige up on her threat. Paige smiled at them and stood her ground before Brian jeld up his hand, calling them off.
Allie Queen: Gotta respect the bravery of Paige coming out here alone.
Wayne Miller: I don’t think these fans would allow her to get jumped, if that’s what you’re worried about. Paige Lewis is quite possibly the most popular wrestler in SCW right now, and there would be a riot if she was harmed.
Brian: What’s it gonna be, girl?
Paige Lewis: I am nearly 30 years old, don’t cheek me by calling me girl. You want me, Brian? You want this SCW World Heavyweight Championship that I have held for over three years? You are going to have to earn it. I accept your challenge. The match is Seven Circles of Hell.
Allie Queen: Seven circles of hell??? I’ve never heard of that!
Wayne Miller: I don’t think Brian has either, but if he wants a shot at the gold, that is what he will have to agree to.
Brian: I don’t care what the match is. I’ll see you at Domination!
Paige Lewis and Brian Kennedy got in each other’s face now and stared each down as the scene faded to nothing, and the SCW logo flashed.
As My Name Is Human by Highly Suspect begins to play through the arena, a video montage is shown. Previous SCW stars are briefly shown, followed by current stars.

Feed fades in to show the SCW commentary team of Allie Queen and Wayne Miller.
Allie Queen: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to SCW! We are so pleased to be back, and we have been waiting for this for a while! Tonight is our return!
Wayne Miller: Yeah, yeah…we know you’re excited, Allie. I just wanna know who fucked up and couldn’t get an appearance booked for ANY of our singles champions. We return to television after 2 years, and the only person we can get booked is Brian Kennedy?
Allie Queen: What’s wrong with Brian Kennedy?
Wayne Miller: Nothing, but come on…he’s the only one booked, and we couldn’t even get anyone else to APPEAR?
Allie Queen: Well, you never know what will happen. But let’s dive right into our first match here tonight!
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and Gentlemen our opening contest is scheduled for one fall and is a SCW North American Heavyweight Championship Number One Contender Series match. On their way to the way first, from Roanoke, Virginia…
Bite Me by Razakel plays over the speakers as the lights dim. A red light comes on near the entrance. On the tron a video plays showing a woman in a hooded robe walking a dimly lit street in a ghetto before she turns around to face the camera. A spiked black mask sits over her mouth and nose. The words: ‘Hell Kat’ appear in bloody letters under her face.
Just as the words ‘Hell Kat’ appear on the video she comes out at the top of the ramp and makes her way to the ring. She climbs the stairs into the ring, takes off her hooded robe revealing black slacks and a black shirt.
Anne Carpenter: She stands at 5 feet 6 inches tall, and weighing in at 230 lbs, ladies and gentlemen…Hell Kat.
Hell Kat removes her black spiked mask. She faces the entrance waiting for her opponent.
Just then ” into the Animal by Disturbed “The lights go out and Miseria Cantare starts to play and Dark Tiger comes to.the ramp. Right before Danny Havok starts to sing it transitions into the Animal by Disturbed and a purple spotlight shines on him. some in the crowd start chanting his name..Dark Tiger…Dark Tiger…
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, from Richmond, Virginia. He stands seven feet one inch and weighs in at two hundred ninety two pounds. He is the Beast of Darkness. He is the legendary Dark Tiger!!!!
Dark Tiger comes in the ring and makes a pose and purple pyro comes from the turnbuckles.”
Allie Queen: Wow, well it seems both Hell Kat and Dark Tiger sure do know how to put on a good entrance, don’t you think Wayne?
Wayne Miller: Yeah they’re both nice, but i’d give the edge to Dark Tiger there. plus we could hear that some people actually know his name.
Allie Queen: What did you try and ask Hell Kat out or something?
Wayne scoffs as the bell rings. The much taller and with the longer reach Dark Tiger grabs Hell Kat by the hair and pulls her to him the referee steps in and warns him to let her go. Hell Kat takes this opportunity to stomps on his foot catching the big man off of his attack and uses this opening to her advantage by hitting him with a chop to his chest .she follows it up with a right to the jaw. she goes to grab him by the neck to set him up for a ddt but he powers out by pushing her away and delivering a big boot to her face. He follows it up with a keylock suplex.
Allie Queen: Oh wow.. Dark Tiger is really taking it to Hell Kat here wayne
Wayne Miller: No kidding. Just shows you short cuts won’t get you anywhere. stomping on a man’s foot is a bit underhanded but Dark Tiger turned it around here.
Dark Tiger goes to grab Hell Kat for a powerbomb but she slips out and hits him in the back with some straight punches followed up with some kicks to his back.
Allie Queen: The much smaller Hell Kat is being forced to do what she can to keep the bigger person down.
Wayne Miller: No kidding. At 7ft 1 he’s one of scw’s taller stars here. They say if a man can’t stand, he can’t fight. Let’s see if her attacking his back will have more effect.
Hell Kat bounces herself off of the ropes and delivers a dropkick to his lower back.
Allie Queen: That has to hurt folks.
Wayne Miller: Hurts me just looking at it.
She does so again but this time tiger rolls to his left and underneath the ropes. As his left leg touches the floor Hell Kat goes to grab him. But Dark Tiger grabs her with his long arms and yanks her out of the ring to the outside. The referee then starts his count.
1…2…
Dark Tiger gets some payback by kicking Hell Kat on her side and rolls her to her stomach where he stomps on her back.
3…4…
Allie Queen: Well it looks like Hell Kat’s aggressiveness caught up to her.
Wayne Miller: Looks like he caught the Kat by the tail and well, you know what they say paybacks a bitch!
Allie Queen: Hey now, you’re not wrong.
5…6…
Dark tight then grabs Hell Kat and rolls her into the ring. he then slides in after her. he grabs her but Hell Kat hits him with a knife edge chops it surprises him and takes him back half a step. Hell Kat goes for it again but he grabs her arm and hits his elbow to her’s. he turns her arms to her back for an armbar. he grabs her other arm and hoists her up into the air. The referee counts.
1…2…3…
He drops Hell Kat and hits her with a reverse chokeslam. He goes for the pin.
1…2…
He then pulls her up.
Allie Queen: Dark Tiger is just playing with Hell Kat now
Wayne Miller: wow. very deductive reasoning there sherlock. he knows because he is bigger and stronger, he’s hurt her. he has her right where he wants her.
Allie Queen: Hopefully it doesn’t come back to bite him.
as he picks her up. she grabs on his neck and pulls him down and hits him with a gut check. and then another one. she grabs him by the side headlock but Dark Tiger stand up and uses it to hit her with a back body drop.
he turns himself over and gets to a vertical base first. he grabs Hell Kat and powerslams her into the mat. he grabs her by her hair and hits her with a powerbomb, not one but two.
Wayne Miller: wow he’s really working her over. you’d think she stole his lunch money or something.
Allie Queen: i was thinking something similar
Dark Tiger picks her up yet again and hits her with his Eye of Darkness .
Wayne Miller: was that a reverse toture rack into a blackhole slam?
Allie Queen: yes it was and it’s called Eye Of Darkness
Dark Tiger goes for the pin.
1..2..3!!!
Anne Carpenter: The winner of this match and moving on in the north american championship number one contender series…Dark Tiger!!
Fans chant the name Dark Tiger over and over as he gets up looks at his handywork and smirks. He leaves the ring leaving the referees and medics to tend to Hell Kat.
A video begins on the tron. First there is a clip of Chaldean Town in Detroit, it transitions to a clip of Orange Mount in Memphis and then begins transitioning to more ghettos and hoods mixing with run down trailers in the country, and trailer parks before finally the transitions slow down to a red brick building, presumably a project comes on the screen with crime scene tape and chalk outlines. Five shadows emerge from behind the tape. Suddenly all five become visible (from left to right: Elizabeth Cain, James Roads, and Fathi as the words: The 3rd Estate come on the screen in a goldish font on a banner like image with the red building behind it.
Simultaneously, while the transitions are picking up speed, Are You Ready by Disturbed begins playing
The lights go out as Stalker (Master’s Solemn Hour) hits the P.A. system. Smoke fills the arena as lightning flashes and thunder cascades throughout the building. Red lights engulf the arena as the man emerges from the back. We hear a loud cracking sound, when the lights come back on Stalker is standing in the ring, he awaits his opponent. The area near the rampway darkens. Red lights strobe on the right of the entrance and blue on the left. Seconds later we hear a siren followed by the opening words over the pa system:
“No surrender, no…surrender…”
As the lyrics begin saying no surrender a video begins on the tron showing caution tape and someone facing away from the camera crying. As the lyrics kick in at 15 seconds Fathi emerges from the other side of the tape on the video smiling. The word: FATHI appears in Arabic under his face ( فتحي ).
As the word Fathi appears under the face of Fathi the man himself emerges at the top of the rampway wearing black boots, dark Southpole jeans and a black hoodie with a murderous rage in his eyes. Unzipping the black hoodie he reveals a black plain t-shirt. Tossing the hoodie to the side, Fathi baseball slides into the ring.
The referee asks if both competitors are ready as Fathi paces around the ring like a man on a mission. The referee signals for the bell and immediately Fathi goes after Stalker as Stalker tries to block his offense by covering up. Fathi is fueled by revenge and hatred after his former best friend, and tag team partner Brian Kennedy formed an alliance with Stalker and Mr. Creed taking the NCW Tag Team Titles from the now broken Thug Revolution. Fathi manages to get Stalker to the corner before Stalker ducks underneath and yells at the official to get the Rabid Curr away from him. Fathi puts his hands up, while he is doing that Stalker hits a huge clothesline knocking Fathi down.
Wayne Miller: Not sure where Anne was, but it’s time for a match that has had all of SCW buzzing for weeks. This match has generated more buzz than the main event, even.
Allie Queen: Fathi and Stalker Knight, this could have easily been the main event.
Fathi bounces right back up and asks him for a tie up. Stalker obliges as they go for the tie up. Being a ring technician, Stalker easily transitions the lockup to a headlock, squeezing the air out of the hothead. He sneaks in a couple of shots to Fathi’s forehead as he tries to get out of the hold. Fathi then goes for a back body drop, but counters it to a headlock take down, still having the submission on lock, Stalker then smoothly transitions the headlock to a front chancery. Fathi is struggling to get to his feet as Stalker knees him repeatedly while still having Fathi on the front chancery. Fathi tries to roll out of the submission, but Stalker rolls with him and has the front chancery still locked in! This time Fathi uses a different tactic as he starts clubbing blows on Stalker back, hoping that would let Stalker release the hold. Stalker does so as he lets go of the submission and goes for an armbar. But Fathi squirms away before Stalker can apply the hold properly. They quickly get up and the crowd cheers for both of them as they stare down.
Allie Queen: And now we have a standoff.
Wayne Miller: These two men know each other very well, they must dig deep into their arsenals and pull something out they haven’t in years to get over on the other. This battle started with The Apocalypse gunning for Thug Revolution in NCW, they have studied each other for a while now.
Fathi spits in Stalker’s face and stares him down. Stalker slaps the taste out of Fathi’s mouth. The crowd reacts to the slap before Fathi angrily tackles Stalker to the ground. Fathi starts punching the shit out of the Stalker and the referee tries to pull him away from him. Finally the referee warns Fathi that he will disqualify him. Fathi starts arguing with the referee, telling him to stop bothering him. Fathi focuses his attention back on Stalker and Stalker sneaks in an eye rake on Fathi! The crowd booed loudly at Stalker’s cheap tactics, but he doesn’t give a damn, turns and hits Fathi with a spear! Stalker goes for the cover…
1…2…
Allie Queen: Here it comes! STALKERS is about to win!
Fathi gets the shoulder in time. Stalker quickly gets up and starts stomping on his enemy at every limb of his body. Stalker finished his onslaught with a hard stomp on Fathi’s sternum. Stalker then casually walks on Fathi’s stomach as if he was a carpet. Stalker then raises his hands up high and taunts the crowd as they booed him loudly. Stalker just smirks at their reaction before focusing his attention back on his opponent. Stalker then helps Fathi to his feet and Irish whips him to the turnbuckle with such fierce force that Fathi bounced off the turnbuckle and fell down. Stalker shakes his head as Fathi gasps in pain and attempts to use the ropes to get himself up. Suddenly Stalker knocks him to the corner with a shoulder thrust. Stalker then starts stomping a mudhole on Fathi repeatedly. After he finished stomping, Stalker flips the birds on him before backing away from the corner. Suddenly Stalker runs and hits Fathi with a running facewash! Damn, Stalker is looking good here tonight. Stalker drags Fathi away from the ropes and goes for the cover without hooking the legs…
1…2…
Fathi kicks out! This time Stalker hooks the legs…
1…2…
Fathi gets his shoulder up in time. Stalker glares at the referee without saying a word. Stalker then gets Fathi to his feet and gets him in a powerbomb position. Stalker is motioning that he is going to powerbomb Fathi onto the turnbuckle. As Stalker lifts him up, Fathi instantly sticks a thumb on Stalker’s right eye. Payback from what Stalker did to him earlier! Fathi lands behind and has Stalker in a Full Nelson position. Stalker struggles to get out of the submission, but Fathi is not letting go. Uh oh, here it comes. A Picture perfect Dragon Suplex! This might be the opening he needs as he collects his breath and wits while Stalker is still down and out by the move. Fathi slowly gets up and so does Stalker. Stalker is the first to throw a haymaker at Fathi, but he quickly responds with a haymaker of his own. They then start trading shots with the crowd reacting to each punch being thrown. However, Stalker uses his brilliance and unexpectedly rakes Fathi in the eyes. Stalker listens to the chorus of boos raining on him but he doesn’t care as he slams Fathi with a running DDT! Stalker goes for the pin again…
1…2…
Fathi kicks out! He just never quits! This time Stalker is getting a bit pissed off. He starts screaming at Fathi and yelling at why he can’t stay down, while punching the snot out of him. Stalker then stops because of the warning by the official. Stalker pretends to punch the referee and the referee flinches as Stalker laughs. He picks up Fathi and slams him down with a gutwrench suplex! Instead of going for the cover, Stalker heads to the top rope. He looks around then leaps off, looking for the diving splash. Wait nobody home! Fathi rolled out in time and Stalker collided with the mat. The crowd starts to get behind the Rabid Curr as he tries to get on his feet. Fathi gets on his feet and so does Stalker who momentarily clutches his stomach in pain. Once again they are trading blows. This time Fathi gets the upper hand as he keeps smashing Stalker with forearm shots. Stalker throws a wild punch, but Fathi ducks and hits Stalker with a swinging reverse STO! Fathi goes for the cover…
1…2…
Stalker gets his shoulder up in time. Fathi can’t believe that Stalker kicked out and gets back to his feet taking Stalker up with him. Stalker pushes Fathi away causing Fathi to stumble a bit. Fathi turns around quickly and goes for a clothesline but Stalker ducks it and gets behind Fathi. Stalker tries to go for a belly-2-back suplex but Fathi blocks it and then mule kicks Stalker without the referee noticing. Stalker hunches over in pain and Fathi swings around, hitting a huge Blackjack. Fathi hooks Stalker’s leg and the referee counts…
1…2…3!!!
Fathi gets up and can’t believe he beat Stalker…
Wayne Miller: Holy shit what a twist. Fathi comes out and wins in a shocking end!
Allie Queen: I didn’t see that coming at all! Seriously fast! I see Anne is back…
Anne Carpenter: Here is your winner by pinfall The Rabid Curr, Fathi!!!
Fathi slowly gets to his feet as his music hits. His celebration is short as he rolls out of the ring and walks backwards up the ramp, grinning.
Wayne Miller: Gotta respect Fathi coming out here and getting the win, and he did it alone.
Allie Queen: Good way to make a debut, and he moves forward in the hunt for the SCW North American Heavyweight Championship.
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is set for one fall…introducing first, making his SCW Debut…DANGEROUS DEAN TYLER.
The song Unscripted Violence by Violent Idols start to blast over the PA system. The man who is known as ” Dangerous” Dean Tyler starts to come on out being accompanied to the ring by his brother, ” Sadistic” Sami Tyler. Dean’s seen carrying a switchblade with him. He gets in the ring and goes to trash talk about what he wants to do to his opponent while having a great smile on his face as his music fades out.
Anne Carpenter: And his opponent, weighing in a one hundred eighty five pounds from New York City, New York, she is Emily Desmond!!!
“I’m Just A Girl” by No Doubt plays and Emily Desmond appears on the stage. She stood there for a moment before continuing down the ramp.
Wayne Miller: Emily Desmond once held the distinction of being the longest reigning SCW Alternative Champion, but that came to a screeching halt when she met Paige Lewis.
Allie Queen: Oh I remember. That was the night that a lot of people went home in absolute awe. We know Emily is going to want her rematch sooner rather than later.
The bell rang and the two locked up in the center of the ring. Dean shoved Emily back a few steps, and she countered by taking him down with a shoulder block. Dean rolled back to his feet, but Emily took him back down with a Clothesline. Dean rolled away and got to his feet by the turnbuckle. Emily darted towards him and Dean ducked behind her and delivered a German Suplex. Dean then began stomping away at the former champion.
Wayne Miller: Dean Tyler is holding his own so far against Emily Desmond. A win here tonight could catch the attention of the right people.
Allie Queen: Referee pulling Dean away now, giving Emily a few precious seconds to breath.
Dean charged at Emily, who threw a Clothesline. Dean dropped to his knees and rolled Emily up, catching her totally off-guard.
Wayne Miller: Oh come on, you’re not catching the former SCW Alternative Champion with a damn rollup 3 minutes into the match. Who does this buster think he’s in the ring with?!
1…2…3!!!
Allie Queen: HOLY SHIT! IT’S OVER! DEAN TYLER WINS!
As the referee forced Emily out of the ring, Anne began making the announcement as Dean’s music began. Emily was fuming as she tried to keep fighting.
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, here is you’re winner…DEAN TYLER!
A moment passed as Emily left and Dean continued celebrated. Suddenly, his music stopped.
Wayne Miller: What’s going on here? Tech issues already?
Allie Queen: It was clearly turned off, Wayne.
Some Bodies Gonna Get It by Three 6 Mafia began playing, and crowd looked towards the stage, confused.
Wayne Miller: Wait, whose music is that?
Allie Queen: I have no clue! One of the other new signings?
After about 30 seconds, someone walked out onto the stage, and a shimmer of gold was seen as the crown descended into madness.
Wayne Miller: IS THAT WHO I THINK IT IS?!
Allie Queen: YOU KNOW DAMN WELL IT IS! THE CHAMPION HAS ARRIVED!
Wayne Miller: WE DON’T KNOW IF ANYONE ELSE IS HERE TONIGHT, SO SHE’S THE HIGHEST RANKING CHAMPION IN THE BUILDING!!
A moment later, Dean Tyler was looking across the ring at the 4 and Beloved, the Japanese Machine…The SCW International Heavyweight Champion, Adatu Urakih. The championship glimmered in the light as it hung around her waist, one of her hands resting on it. It was a few more minutes before the crowd relaxed enough for her to raise the mic she was handed.
Urakih: Well, who do we have here? I was in the back, drinking my sake and laughing, happy to be back and them I heard Anne introducing someone calling themselves “Dangerous.” Did I hear that right? Surely she didn’t mean yo-
Dean Tyler: Who the hell do you think you are?
Urakih: First of all, if you EVER interrupt me again, I’ll break your fucking face in half.
The crowd gasped, knowing this could break down fast.
Urakih: So what makes you so tough, eh? What makes you…dangerous? You don’t look like much more than any of these other basic bitch white boys I’ve been beating the shit out of for over a decade.
Dean Tyler: You wanna find out?
Now, Urakih stepped forward and got in Dean’s face.
Urakih: As a matter of fact…I fucking do.
The Japanese champion was grinning sinisterly, and Dean was looking ready to fight again too.
Wayne Miller: We don’t know much about Dean Tyler yet here in SCW, but know a whole hell of a lot about Urakih, and I don’t know if there is anyone I’d bet on against her.
Allie Queen: Yeah, no shit. She is undefeated in SCW. She speared Veronica Rodriguez out of a second story window, and then limped back inside the building to compete in the VERY NEXT MATCH, where she picked up the Alternative Championship. Hell, she won THAT Championship literally 2 minutes after Larissa broke her arm. This is not a good idea for Dean Tyler. He needs to back away before he gets hurt.
Just then, the titantron came to life, and Neela, the SCW General Manager appeared.
Neela: If I have to come down there, there will be a problem, now both of you get out of my ring. Actually, wait. Since you both want to fight so bad, you have a match at Overdrive 53…against each other. And Urakih…you better eat your wheaties…because that shiny belt of yours…will be on the line.
Allie Queen: You have got to be kidding me! Neela says we’re gonna have a championship match on the next card!!!
Wayne Miller: We know one thing, both of these superstars are happy about this news.
Urakih rolled out of the ring with a grinned as she walked backwards up the ramp. Dean nodded as he watched her leave as the feed faded to a commercial break.
Brian is seen walking into The Empire dressing room. Stalker and Creed are in there talking. Scott is holding a letter from SCW General Manager Neela. Scott hands the letter and Brian reads it.
Brian Kennedy and Empire members,
Brian, I know we have had our differences, but you always do what is good for business and I need someone to learn the importance of being a Champion here in SCW. I know you have like minded thoughts. Priest needs to learn that business is business. Show him what that means. Payment will be discussed when the championship is returned to me.
Neela
Brian looks up with a sly smile on his face.
Brian: Guys, we have some business to take care of. Make sure you guys are ready next week.
Scott: You trust her? I mean you two always been at odds.
Brian: She always does what’s good for business and so do we. This time we have the same objective and it works out. Priest is finished.
The scene fades with them making plans for Priest demise.
Anne Carpenter: Introducing first, he is making his first SCW in ring appearance. He is The Extremist Tyler Cross!!!
“Unforgiven II” by Metallica blares over the PA system as Tyler Cross walks out onto the ramp smoking a cigarette he raises his hands into a X symbol then carries on down the rampway smoking, he enters the ring and flicks the end of his cigarette at the camera.
Anne Carpenter: Introducing his opponent, He is one half of the SCW Tag Team Champions, The Living Legend, Brian Kennedy!!
As the rhythm picks up after around a minute of music plays and the words start to work its way through the arena the lights cut out and a spot light shines at the top of the ramp. Brian is seen standing there with a smile, in his hand is a 20lb sledge hammer. He has the NCW over his shoulder and SCW Tag Title around his waist.
He had alot to say.
He had alot of nothing to say.
(We’ll miss him. 2x)
He had alot to say.
He had alot of nothing to say.
(We’ll miss him. 2x)
(We’re gonna miss him. 2x)
So loooooong!
Fire shoots out from the stage. Smoke rises from the stage as he starts to walk toward the ring. He stops about Half way to the ring as he flexes in front of the camera kissing his sledge hammer. He smirks in to the camera yelling snide remarks.
We wish you well.
You told us how you weren’t afraid to die.
Well so looooooong.
Don’t cryyyyy.
Or feel too down.
Not all martyrs see divinity.
But at least you tried.
He climbs up the steps and turns toward the crowd and taunts them by flipping them off and girls scream his name. He stops and turns his back towards the crowd and jumps over the top rope and stands in the middle of the ring dropping the NCW Tag Title, he looks around and drops the sledge hammer and flexes as the flashes flow through out the arena.
Standing above the crowd
he had a voice that was strong and loud.
(We’ll miss him. 2x)
Ranting and pointing his finger
at everything but his heart.
(We’ll miss him. 2x)
(We’re gonna miss him. 2x)
No wayyyyyy
to recall
what it was that you had said to me,
like I care at alll.
But he was sooo louuud.
You sure could yell.
You took a stand on every little thing
and soooo louuuuuuuuud.
You, could be, the one, who saves, me from, my own, existence.
He climbs all the turnbuckles yet again doing a pose with his arms spread out wide from each one as the music fades. He walks over and grabs a mic. He stands there looking at Tyler.
Brian Kennedy: You know I have surprises for the first Overdrive of 2021. You are all in for a treat tonight.
Brian smirks as Mr. Creed and Stalker Knight walks out towards the ring. Creed has a bag tossed over his right shoulder. Tyler looks over his shoulder watching Brian and the two monsters coming to the ring.
Allie Queen: Brian is up to something. What’s he got these two coming out here for?
Wayne Miller: We’ll those guys where forming a faction called The Foundation over in NCW. Tyler was gunning for all the former Thug Revolution. Maybe it’s gonna continue here. I think Brian has some unfinished business here with Tyler, he was the one who put Brian out of the major PPV for the top belt of NCW. Creed and Stalker enter the ring as Tyler and Brian hug. The 4 of them exchange various handshakes and hugs greeting the 3 of them.
Brian Kennedy: Tyler, your being brought into a Legacy. One that’s been built over years of blood sweat and tears. Stalker and Creed are coming out because ladies and gentlemen. Boys and Girls of all ages. The Rebirth of The Empire has arrived.
Brian grabs a bag from Creed as he takes out The Empire t-shirts. They have the same logo on the left, but with each name on the right side. He hands one to each of the men in the ring. Brian turns towards the camera now. The smirk on his face says it all.
Brian Kennedy: When Requiem and Frostbite started The Empire with me, we knew we would build a Legacy that when your apart of this Family. Not only is it for Life. We will do whatever it takes to remain on top. There isn’t any other men I’d like to Rebuild The Empire with than the 3 of you. DEA is strongest alliance in the business today. We have proven that time and time again. We hold almost all the Titles this company has to offer. And soon enough those will be ours again. Just a matter of time.
He winks towards the camera.
Brian Kennedy: So, that speaks for itself and we are the key players in SCW and fellas. It’s so damn lovely being on top. We do what we want. When we want. Business is about to pick up and business is damn good. So with that being said, Gentlemen welcome to The Empire.
Wayne Miller: There you have it. The Empire has been rebuilt and by 4 dangerous men.
Allie Queen: What’s going to happen at the next Overdrive? Will they have more surprises, tune in next time. SCW is Reborn and thriving. 2021 is going to be one hell of a year for us.
Brian smirks as The Empire music hits as the scene fades to a SCW logo as the 4 of them celebrating in the ring..
SCW Interviewer Sean was at the Orlando International Airport, earlier that day.
Sean: Ladies and gentlemen, I had it on good authority that several people competing here tonight at Survival would be flying into Orlando, instead of driving up from Miami. I can confirm that just moments ago, Jessica Tendonin’s Gulfstream G650 jet has landed! I did not see who was onboard, as the jet taxied to a private hangar, but hopefully soon, I’ll have that- wait!
Sean got excited now, pointing towards the hangar where Jessica’s jet was. The massive doors were opening. Escorted by half a dozen Orlando police officers on motorcycles, and another half dozen in Interceptors, 2 Mercedes Maybach S600 Pullman’s slided out of the hangar.
Sean: And they are on their way, with an escort!
As the procession made their way smoothly towards the exit, two more cars appeared out of the garage. The first was the same Nissan GTR seen weeks ago when Urakih returned. The other, however, could only be described as a spaceship on wheels. The GTR was fast, but the other car flew ahead of it to the head of the procession.
Sean: Wait, is that a goddamned Regera?! That’s gotta be Jessica herself, and Urakih in the Nissan! Then, who is in the other cars?
After exiting the airport, the group sped passed Sean and his cameraman, presumably on their way to the arena.
Sean: Wait, is that a goddamned Regera?! That’s gotta be Jessica herself, and Urakih in the Nissan! Then, who is in the other cars? And here comes another!
A red Ford Mustang roared out of the hangar now, and quickly moved to the front of the group. As it passed him, Sean caught a glimpse of long, curly blonde hair.
Sean: THAT’S PAIGE LEWIS! THE SCW HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION IS HERE! BUT WHY IS SHE FLYING IN WITH JESSICA!? WE’LL FIND OUT SOON, BECAUSE THEY ARE ON THEIR WAY PRESUMABLY TO THE ARENA RIGHT NOW! SCW SURVIVAL 2 IS TONIGHT!
As My Name Is Human by Highly Suspect begins to play through the arena, a video montage is shown. Previous SCW stars are briefly shown, followed by current stars.

In what would be Cash Allan’s first match in SCW, he came out on top, and has earned himself a shot at the championship at Summer Meltdown.
*****
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest will be contested as a Falls Count Anywhere match, and it is for the Interim SCW North American Heavyweight Championship! Introducing first, from Houston, Texas, weighing in at three hundred and twenty eight pounds, he is the first challenger…Priest!
Passive by A Perfect Circle hits the PA system. As Priest steps onto the stage, the crowd gives him a mixed reaction. Stopping in the middle of the ramp, Priest glares into the crowd with a sinister smile. As the opening guitar riffs start to kick in, the lights in the arena flicker on and off as flaming pyro’s go off. After a couple seconds, Priest twist his neck to crack his spine and heads down the ramp.
Once he gets to the ring, he removes his black sunglasses and taunts tossing them into the crowd, but doesn’t. He sees a child walks over to him, and acts like he’s going to give it to him. But instead of giving them to the child, he drops them to the floor and stomps on them. The challenger laughs now as he climbs into the ring.
Anne Carpenter: And his opponent, from Parts Unknown, the Masked Avenger!
The intro to Sucker Punch by Korn blasts over air waves as The Masked Avenger comes out on stage and then taunts the fans. They boo the Avenger as the being walks down to the ring and then rolls into the ring and runs over to the ropes and then taunts the crowd on the ropes then The Avenger jumps down from the ropes and looks across the ring at his opponent. As the bell rang, the fans cheered.
Priest attempts to tie up with Masked Avenger, but The Avenger is quick to avoid and shoulder barges him down to the mat. The Avenger then runs into the ropes as Preist tries to get to his feet. The Avenger drops an elbow on Priest’s chest.
Wayne Miller: The Avenger quick to get to work and hoping to score and upset here tonight.
The Avenger throws a few stiff lefts and rights at Priest before grabbing him by his hair and forcing him to his feet again. The two men then exchange blows in the ring with The Avenger using his strength advantage to get on top, grab Priest by the right arm and whip him into the corner and follow up by crashing into him with a shoulder barge against the ring post.
Wayne Miller: The Avenger is on top of this match early on, using his sheer size and power to his advantage.
Allie Queen: He knows that’s the key to success in this match.
Wayne Miller: If he can continue to stay on top like this there’s no reason, he can’t score that upset tonight.
The Avenger attempts to then hit Priest with a forearm to the chest, but Priest is able to counter, grab The Avengers arms and whip him into the corner opposite, The Avenger tries to immediately turn around and charge Priest, but Priest is too quick and takes him down with a classic drop toe hold.
Allie Queen: Priest using his quickness and cunning to get out of that very awkward situation there.
Wayne Miller: The Avenger will be very disappointed he wasn’t able to capitalize on that.
Allie Queen: He’s still in this match though.
Priest stomps on The Avengers back while has grounded, and then forces him up to his feet and hits him with a Backbreaker and attempts the quick cover.
1………2………KICKOUT!!
The Avenger powers out, much to Priests frustration.
Wayne Miller: The Avenger uses his sheer strength to throw Priests pin attempt off of him there.
Allie Queen: The question is, how can you pin that?
Wayne Miller: It won’t be an easy task that’s for sure.
Priest gets back to his feet and again stomps on The Avenger back, The Avenger manages to get to his feet and the two men exchange blows once more. The Avenger again starts using his strength advantage to get on top of the braw despite his weakening back and gets on top of the fight.
Wayne Miller: The Avenger showed some signs of slowing but he’s fighting through the pain he wants to win this match that bad.
Allie Queen: He’s been impressive again thus far, it’s a shame that big win has alluded him for the past few months.
Wayne Miller: I think it’s only a matter of time before The Avenger gets that win though.
The Avenger grabs Priest and hits him with an impressive Pump Handle Slam down onto the mat and covers him.
1………2………KICKOUT!!
Preist gets the shoulder up. The Avenger is this time annoyed with not being able to get the cover, he gets to his feet slowly and Priest also starts making his way up.
Wayne Miller: The Avenger again able to make a bad situation work to his favor there.
Allie Queen: He pulled that out of nowhere really.
Wayne Miller: The Avenger is a veteran of the ring, he knows what he is doing in there.
Priest bursts with energy charging The Avenger hitting him with a Spinning Neck breaker which earns a roar of appreciation from the crowd. The Avenger attempts to get to his feet quickly but isn’t able to as Priest hits him with furious lefts and rights powering him back into the corner.
Allie Queen: Priest is really starting to bring a game to the table here tonight.
Wayne Miller: The Avenger is going to be left feeling pretty rough from that one.
Allie Queen: He’s going to wonder if his back will last the match.
Priest charges The Avenger, The Avenger ducks and Priest ends up in the corner, The Avenger goes for a Mongolian Chop but misses allow Priest to hit The Avenger with a Reverse DDT and covers him.
1………2………KICKOUT!!
The Avenger gets the shoulder up. Priest gets the crowd behind him.
Wayne Miller: Priest is showing that he’s still in this match, the he’s showing the heart of a champion and that counts for a lot in this business.
Allie Queen: SCW has really benefitted from his return and hard work for the company again that’s for sure as we look to stabilize moving on.
Wayne Miller: Indeed, nobody can fault The Avenger effort here in SCW. He’s a true gentleman outside of the ring and I have a lot of time for him.
Priest cannot believe he was not able to finish The Avenger as he gets to his feet and much to everyone’s surprise The Avenger his up to his knees. The Avenger gets to his feet as Priest makes his way to the corner opposite, as The Avenger stalks him with a fierce look in his eyes. Priest is quick enough to climb the turnbuckle and hit The Avenger with a Missile Dropkick from the top rope.
Allie Queen: Missile Dropkick from the top rope! What an impressive move from the multi-time former world champion!
Wayne Miller: Priest really has done it all over the world, the question is can he come full circle and be the top dog in SCW again.
Allie Queen: Tonight, suggests that maybe he can.
Priest again attempts the cover.
1………2………KICKOUT!!
The Avenger again powers out, Priest tries to force The Avenger to his feet quick, The Avenger elbows Priest in the face and grabs him hitting him with an impressive Powerslam that sends both me crashing down into the mid ring area.
Wayne Miller: Incredible Powerslam from the behemoth that is The Avenger right there!
Allie Queen: I can’t see Priest getting out of this…
Wayne Miller: The Avenger is going for the cover!
The Avenger climbs onto Preist, going for the pin.
1………2………KICKOUT!!
Priest kicks out as the crowd roars. The Avenger again gets to his feet, stomps three times on Priest back before attempting to force him up, which he does successfully. Priest throws a few punches and the fight opens up once more. Just then Brian Kennedy walks out on stage. He makes his way to the ring side where the ref warns him.
Allie Queen: Priest is back in this, he’s fighting for his life in there.
Wayne Miller: I have not seen him so determined in an SCW ring for years.
Allie Queen: The Avenger is going to have to get back in this quick if he is to recover the match.
The Avenger misses one of his punches; Priest seizes the initiative and hits him with the Preist Driver and covers immediately.
1………2………3!!
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, here is your winner by pinfall, and the NEW Interim SCW North American Heavyweight Champion…Priest!
The bell rings and Anne Carpenter makes the announcement. Brian slides into the ring. He grabs The Masked Avenger and hits him with the War Cry. Priest looks on. Brian nods at Priest as he picks up The Masked Avenger and tosses him out of the ring. Brian walks up to Priest.
Wayne Miller: That’s it! Priest is the Interim SCW North American Heavyweight Champion! Oh, but look at these two!
Allie Queen: If you think back to when SCW closed the last time. Priest was going to join The Empire.
Wayne Miller: What do you think is going down now?
Brian holds out his hand and he shakes Priest’s hand. He motions for a Mic. The referee handed Priest the Interim SCW North American Heavyweight Championship, and this one had a black strap instead of dark red.
Brian Kennedy: So, here we are at Survival. For far too long now I have been sitting in the shadows. I have watched men holding Titles that they never should have gotten. Watching men who couldn’t hold a candle stick to my jock strap thinking that they are untouchable. So, with that being said tonight I am going to make an announcement that is going to shock the hell out of several of you. Go cry to management thinking that you’re going to be a special case and not face me. But Emily, I am talking to you girl. You have kept my name in your mouth for far too long. It hasn’t mattered who you were in the match against. At some point during the weeks leading up to that match you brought my name out of your mouth. Let me take you to the history books lil girl. My only claim to fame here in SCW is the Tag Titles?
He laughs for a few moments before regaining his composure and begins to speak again as the crowd is chanting DEA.
Brian Kennedy: You mean the same Tag Team Titles that I have held for so long that DEA is about to go down in the History books as the longest reigning Champions of SCW? The same Titles that you have chased after for so long that it has become a joke to even face you and whoever you bring to the ring with you? Yea, I think that is one hell of a claim to fame if you ask me. But, lets add that I was the World Champion in this company when I beat Neela two times to take the Title. And before you can open your trap. Yea, Brian did beat me. While you want to sit there talking all that shit. I have a Titles rematch clause that I haven’t cashed in yet. Don’t forget. But that’s what brought me down to the ring here tonight.
He pauses for a few moments as DEA chants echo through the arena and he motions for the crowd to calm down.
Brian Kennedy: Em, I have made my choice as to which Championship I am going to cash in my rematch for. Because SCW closed and then reopened, I made the request to Mr. Walker if I could use it for any Title. He granted me that request way back when SCW reopened. I’m sure you can remember that. If not go back and rematch the shows. The Mega Cup victory was for a Title match. That Title I want is The SCW Alternative Title, but Emily. That isn’t all I want. Because I want you. Since you haven’t been able to keep my name out of your mouth for almost a year now. Each and every time you were on Camera Brian Kennedy has come out of your mouth. Beating you repeatedly for the Tag Titles didn’t teach you a lesson. Maybe this will. Because win or lose. This is what I am calling you out for. Since you think I am nowhere near the Singles Title picture, since I will never become a singles champion in SCW ever again. Why don’t you be the person to stop me, quit kissing Paige’s ass. You step up. If you win tonight, I want my match to be cashed in for the Alternative Title. If you lose. Your rematch clause for mine. Put up or keep my name out of your mouth. Because you done put a target on your back little girl and your about to learn what Brian Fucking Kennedy can do.
The crowd pops as Brian keeps talking.
Brian Kennedy: You see, Emily, I have been sitting back in the shadows for a year. Waiting for my time to strike. That time is now. Brian Kennedy will be the SCW Alternative Champion. Just sit back and see. I’m coming, The challenge has been issued. And if you turn into a scared little bitch, I am coming anyways. I will beat the shit out of anyone who steps in my way from stopping me from crushing the last bit of dreams that you have of being a main pillar here in SCW. That’s a long list and your name isn’t anywhere on it. Best believe Brian is. So, Emily since you spent 2018 saying my name. I have finally chosen to answer your call. Here I am, now come out and play.
He pauses.
Brian Kennedy:I want you to take this personal, fuck business.
DEA’s music hits as Priest and Brian celebrate in the ring for a few moments before leaving the ring.
WINNER: PRIEST
NEW INTERIM SCW NORTH AMERICAN HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION
The scene changes to backstage, in the dressing room of Adatu Urakih. As the camera pans, she’s not along. Jessica Tendonin, Ashley Wallace, Candice Kingston, and even the SCW world Heavyweight Champion, Paige Lewis, are with her, as well as a dozen or so other people. Jessica is speaking.
Jessica: …and it’s like I always say. Always have a back up plan. Brute strength will only get you so far. You’ve gotta be able to plan and strategize. I know, I’ve been trying to drill this into some of you for over a decade. In this room, and around the world, I have assembled one of the greatest factions in our industry. I look at each of you, and I know you can get the job done when I give you a directive.
The redhead pulled Urakih into a hug, clapping her on the back.
Jessica: Some of you know this…but I often keep Urakih on a VERY tight leash. Truth is, Urakih is dangerous. I know it sounds cliche. The crazy unstable Asian chick. That’s not even the half of it. I keep Urakih under wraps because if I let her go all out, all the time, we’d constantly be wading in the blood of her victims, and I really mean that.
Urakih beamed at this description. She even blushed a bit. Jessica grinned and rolled her eyes as she handed her the microphone.
Urakih: Thank you, master, for that most wonderful description. I have my orders, and I will fulfill them. Make no mistake, people. My goal is to win the SCW International Championship, but my mission? My mission is to beat Larissa to within an inch of her life, and make sure sure that after Paige here competes against Emily Desmond, she doesn’t have much work to do.
I know everyone thinks my master just gives me these cute nicknames just because. War Dragon, Death Dragon, the Dragon of Danger, and all the others. Truth is, if Jessica didn’t hold me back, there would be a much large pile of broken bodies behind me. Sadly, my master chooses to muzzle me most of the time. But tonight, Jessica says do what I have to do. What I have to do?
Let me tell all of you what I have to do…I have to teach that runt a lesson about fucking with the Order of the Dragon. Jessica is angry. Do you know how angry she has to be to have me in to clean something up? And then, to tell me to do whatever I want? Larissa has made big mistakes. First, she intentionally injured my master. And then, she taunted her. You do NOT taunt the Dragon. So, tonight, I’m going to break Larissa. I’m going to introduce her to planes of pain that she couldn’t have imagined in her worst nightmares. I’m going to redefine her understanding of the word suffering.
Tonight, I am going to teach Larissa, and indeed everyone else, what happens when you get on Jessica’s bad side. For too long, Jessica has taken it easy on people, and instructed me to do the same. But tonight, I’m going to Larissa a broken heap of flesh for Paige to toss in the back of the ambulance. Tonight, Larissa has to pay for what she did. Tonight, when we leave the building, we will have at least 2 singles Championships. Tonight…nobody survives the Order of the Dragon. Now…on me.
With a smile, Urakih looked around the room before making her way for the exit, Candice Kingston behind her.
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest will be contested as a Tables, Ladders, and Chairs match, and it is for the SCW International Heavyweight Championship! Introducing first, hailing from Shanghai, China, she is the reigning and defending SCW International Heavyweight Champion, weight in at one hundred and ten pounds…LARISSA!!!
The Chinese National Anthem sounded now, and a few seconds later, Larissa confidently walked out onto the stage. With her nose in the air, the champion adjusted the belt around her waist before strutting towards the ring.
Allie Queen: Larissa is very confident in herself, and if she were facing anyone else, I’d say that confidence is well placed. But you cannot get ahead of yourself when facing an opponent like Adatu Urakih.
Wayne Miller: This match was over the moment Neela accepted Urakih as the alternate.
Sliding into the ring, Larissa sneered around the arena as she removed her belt and raised it in the air. The referee took the belt from her and began attaching it to the hook. The crowd was booing loudly as Larissa strutted around the ring.
Anne Carpenter: And her opponent, weighing in at one hundred and fifty five pounds, from Musashino, Tokyo, Japan, she is the 4th and Beloved, the Japanese Machine, ADATU URAKIH!
Behemoth by SVDDEN DEATH spun up over the PA system and the crowd began cheering. As everyone turned towards the entrance area. When Urakih didn’t appear, Larissa shook her head in the ring, and the fans in the arena looked confused. And the, the camera panned. Urakih was coming through the crowd.
Allie Queen: Urakih opting for the fan entrance tonight.
Wayne Miller: I think I see several pits forming! Imagine headbanging and then becoming a champion.
Allie Queen: Urakih might not have to!
Urakih had stopped to interact with several fans. Someone pushed her into an opening where several fans were already forming a pit. Instead of looking for who pushed her, Urakih joined. Whipping her head back and forth, the Japanese Dragon had fun as the crowd began dancing along. After a moment, Candice pulled her out and pointed to the ring. Urakih nodded and continued to the ring.
Wayne Miller: There will be plenty of time for moshing after the match.
Allie Queen: You know, I bet Larissa still isn’t quite taking Urakih serious. We’ve talked about how dangerous Urakih is, but to be honest, we’ve only seen a tame Urakih.
Wayne Miller: That’s correct, and tonight, Jessica has told Urakih to do whatever she wants.
Urakih climbed over the barricade and began vibing to the music again. This time, since she had space, she became more animated with her movements. After a moment, she climbed into the ring and moved to the center. As her music died down, the crowd was chanting “Urakih’s Gonna Kill You!” repeatedly. The Japanese woman had a wide grin on her face as she turned to Larissa.
Wayne Miller: Larissa simply doesn’t stand a chance. Her goal needs to be surviving, not winning.
Allie Queen: But that is a tall order when facing Urakih.
The two competitors went to their corners and a moment later, the bell rang. Larissa began strutting toward Urakih. Urakih bolted out of the corner and nailed Larissa with a spear that turned the champion inside out. The crowd roared with approval.
Wayne Miller: RIGHT OUT OF THE GATE WITH A SPEAR!!
Allie Queen: Larissa needs to watch herself! Urakih is here to fight!
Larissa groaned in pain as Urakih picked her up and whipped her into the ropes. As Larissa rebounded, Urakih crouched, and then popped up, shoving Larissa upwards for a Back Body Drop that sent the champion over the top rope and out of the ring.
Wayne Miller: Larissa is airborne!!!
Allie Queen: And she lands in a heap outside the ring! What a display of strength by Urakih.
Urakih slid out of the ring just as Larissa was getting up, and drove one of her knees into the champions face, busting her open. The challenger then picked up Larissa and drilled her into the floor with a DDT. Urakih then got back to her feet and pulled a table from under the ring, setting it up between the ring apron and the barricade. Setting up a pair of chairs under the table, Urakih turned back to Larissa and grabbed her by the hair.
Wayne Miller: What’s she planning with the table and chairs there?
Allie Queen: I have a feeling Larissa isn’t going to like it!
Pushing Larissa into the ring, Urakih rolled in after her and threw her into the corner. After several lefts and rights, Urakih’s hands were covered in Larissa’s blood. Larissa went limp in the corner, and Urakih thrust her onto the top of the turnbuckle. Urakih leapt upwards onto Larissa’s shoulders. Larissa countered by Powerbombing the challenger through the table and the chairs below.
Wayne Miller: Larissa gets in her first bit of offense by putting Urakih through a table!
Allie Queen: And there goes Larissa!
Larissa had launched herself at Urakih, in similar fashion to when she took Jessica out, sans the chair. Urakih rolled out of the way, and Larissa crashed and burned. Larissa groaned as she got to her feet. She began trading lefts and rights with the challenger now. Urakih, instead of continuing to throw fists, kicked Larissa in the side of her knee. Larissa dropped to her hands and knees in pain.
Wayne Miller: Larissa is trying to get back into this match, but Urakih has had control since the bell.
Allie Queen: This event is called survival, and that needs to be Larissa’s game plan.
Urakih grabbed Larissa by the hair, and pulled her to her feet. The challenger Irish Whipped the champion into the turnbuckle, and when she tumbled away, Urakih grabbed her from behind and nailed a German Suplex through the broken table. Getting to her feet, Urakih went to the corner of the ring area, getting a ladder, bringing it back near where Larissa was still laid out. Then, she began rummaging around under the ring, pulling out half a dozen chairs.
Wayne Miller: That’s a lot of chairs, I wonder what she has planned.
Allie Queen: And there goes another table.
Larissa was stirring now, and Urakih hadn’t noticed as she was setting the table up with the chairs on top of it and under it. Larissa reached into her tights and pulled out a set of brass knuckles. When Urakih turned around, Larissa struck her across the face and the challenger was knocked out. The crowd thundered with a mix of shock and anger. Larissa stomped on Urakih’s face several times, busting her open.
Wayne Miller: Larissa is cheating!
Allie Queen: If this was a normal match, sure! I doubt the referee will do anything here! This might be Larissa’s only chance of escaping this match as champion! She needs to get a ladder inside the ring right now!
Larissa seemed to have the same idea, and she grabbed a second ladder and pushed it into the ring. After sliding in and setting it up, the champion began climbing. Urakih was dragging herself onto the apron a moment later, and Larissa saw her. Larissa jumped off the ladder instead of continuing to the top.
Wayne Miller: Rookie mistake by Larissa.
Allie Queen: Urakih looks angry now, and that isn’t a good sign.
Larissa charged at Urakih, and the challenger crouched, and then popped up under Larissa before driving her into the mat with a Spinebuster. Urakih then rolled away and to her feet.
Wayne Miller: That Spinebuster would make most rethink continuing in this match.
Allie Queen: Larissa might be out of it after that.
Urakih moved to the corner and began fiddling with the ropes. After a moment, she released all three of them, creating an opening. Now, the Challenger turned as the champion was getting to her feet. Urakih charged at Larissa, but the champion sidestepped her, grabbing her from behind, and somehow taking Urakih down with an Armbar. The crowd thundered now in shock.
Wayne Miller: She said she was going to break someone’s arm! Will this be it?
Allie Queen: HOLY SHIT!
Urakih screamed out in pain as her arm snapped. The crowd went silent now, completely shocked. Larissa released the hold and got to her feet. Larissa cockily bowed to the fans while gesturing to Urakih, who was stomping on the mat in pain. Larissa turned to her, grabbing the challenger by her hair, picking her up.
Wayne Miller: My god…nobody gave her a chance against Jessica, and she won. We knew for sure she was going to lose in epic fashion to Urakih, but we’re about to see history repeat itself.
Allie Queen: If Larissa wins this, we will be witnessing the impossible. Can Larissa take down the most dangerous member of the Order of the Dragon?
Urakih dropkicked Larissa backwards, and quickly got back to her feet. Larissa charged at her, but Urakih kicked her in the gut and then in the face. With just one hand, Urakih bent Larissa into the air for a bastardized version of the Paraguayan Imprint.
Wayne Miller: She’s got her up for the Imprint! If she can manage this, she might have a chance after all!
Allie Queen: And now she’s walking across the ring!
”URAKIH’S GONNA KILL YOU!!!
Urakih carried Larissa to the side of the ring where she had opened the ropes, and where her table and chairs were. With no hesitation, Urakih jumped from the ring, driving Larissa into the pile of table and chairs below. The arena shook as the fans roared with excitement now. Both women seemed to be out of it.
Wayne Miller: SHE DID! SHE NAILED THE PARAGUAYAN IMPRINT, HER MENTORS OWN FINISHER! BUT CAN SHE CAPITALIZE!?
Allie Queen: Whoever gets up first, they are walking out of this arena as the SCW International Heavyweight Champion!
It was several minutes before either wrestler moved. Urakih was on her feet, but Larissa still wasn’t moving. Dragging herself into the ring, Urakih repositioned the ladder and ascended quickly. Larissa still wasn’t moving. Looking around the arena, Urakih reached up with one hand, and removed the SCW International Heavyweight Championship.The bell sounded, but it was barely heard over the sound of the erupting fans.
Wayne Miller: WE’VE GOT A NEW CHAMPION!!! ADATU URAKIH HAS RETURNED TO SCW, AND IN HER FIRST MATCH BACK, SHE LEAVES WITH A BROKEN ARM, BUT ALSO WITH THE SCW INTERNATIONAL HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP!!!
Allie Queen: I can’t believe it! With a broken arm, Urakih has just defeated Larissa and reclaimed the SCW International Heavyweight Championship for the Order of the Dragon!
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, here is your winner, and the NEW SCW International Heavyweight Champion…ADATU URAKIH!!!
As Behemoth by SVDDEN DEATH began, Candice jumped over the barricade and rolled into the ring, helping Urakih off the ladder. With one hand, Larissa raised her championship above her head. After a moment, the pair exited the ring. Larissa began stirring as they reached the top of the stage. When she got to her feet and saw the belt was gone, and that Urakih had it, she began slamming her fists on the apron.
Wayne Miller: She’d better head back and prepare for her next match, and put that frustration to better use.
Allie Queen: I don’t know how she is supposed to contend with Paige Lewis after this match.
Wayne Miller: Yeah, but Paige is gonna be in another match, as well, so she won’t be fresh. And to the point, Paige is taking on Emily Desmond. I’ll tell you one thing, we’ve seen one heartbreak tonight. No matter who wins the next two matches, there will be more heartbreak.
Allie Queen: This is surreal. Larissa kept her word on breaking another arm here tonight, but not even that was enough to stop the 4th and Beloved, Adatu Urakih. The whole point of Jessica sending in Urakih was to punish Larissa for breaking her own arm. You can bet that Jessica, while pleased to see the championship change hands, is pissed about Urakih getting her arm broken.
WINNER: ADATU URAKIH
NEW SCW INTERNATIONAL HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION
The camera opens inside a dark room. There is only one light shining in the room and you can barely make out the form of a person. The Man begins to speak.
Curtis: “Time has passed since I have come to this company. For this time, I have been watching and looking and learning the people of this company. Looking for all the weak links that holds the Titles in this company. Well, I notice that the North American Heavyweight title has had a list of jokes for Champions. The only noteworthy champion would be Jessica. We all know she is great and always stands on top. But this isn’t about Jessica. This is about you Rich Anderson, you sit there and claim that you hate people like Brian Kennedy and those who have greed for power. Well, I am the kind of person who will bring huge amounts of pain to those who oppose me. To those who doesn’t give me what I want. I want your title. I am coming for it and I will win. You see, I am the prince of darkness. I am chaos.
The scene fades to black with Curtis’s laughing hysterically.
Anne Carpenter: This match is a Casket match and is for the SCW Alternative Championship. The only way to win is to stuff your opponent in the casket and close the lid. First, weighing in at one hundred, fifty five pounds from London, England, she is the SCW World Heavyweight Champion…the Black Princess, Paige Lewis!!!
Swan Song by Dua Lipa began playing. The crowd cheered loudly. After a few seconds, the SCW World Heavyweight Champion walked out onto the stage, the belt around her waist. She makes her way down to the ring, stopping to check out the casket that is ringside. She gives it a thorough inspection, nods, then climbs in the ring.
Anne Carpenter: And her opponent, weighing in a one hundred eighty five pounds from New York City, New York, and accompanied by Chris Desmond, this is SCW Alternative champion…..Emily Desmond.
“I’m Just A Girl” by No Doubt plays and Emily Desmond appears, dressed in rights that have green and purple flames, and a purple shirt. She has the Alternative title around her waist, and right behind her is Chris Desmond, dressed in a dark purple suit, and a light purple button down shirt. They both wait for a moment then proceed down to the ring, stopping to check out the casket at ringside. She climbs in the ring, keeping an eye on Paige. Chris jumps up and says something to Emily as she removes the title belt. She nods her head, and he jumps down and Emily hands the belt to the referee.
The match begins, and as we saw both women inspecting the casket that is ring side. Paige and Emily meet in the middle of the ring, nose to nose. Both have been champions for awhile now, with Emily being the one who has reigned consecutive for over a year and half. Emily won hers June 11, 2017 and no one can deny that hasn’t been impressive as Emily also delivers every time she has stepped in the ring to defend it.
Allie Queen: Would you believe that we have the two powerhouses of SCW in the ring finally? This has been a long time coming and Emily is very proud of that title.
Wayne Miller: I agree, being champion that long means alot to the company, showing your unstoppable, and while is there was a slight lapse in her reign, Paige has also shown that she is just as tough as Emily.
In the ring Emily walks away from Paige back to her corner where Chris is standing, nodding. Emily turns and charges hitting Paige with a spear, one that seem to come from nowhere. Emily gets on top of Paige and starts delivering blow after blow and seems demented right now.
Allie Queen: Emily gets up and backs off, giving a Paige a chance to get up. I wonder what Emily is thinking.
Wayne Miller: Maybe Emily was showing Paige that she can’t be underestimated.
Allie Queen: I doubt Paige needs to be reminded of that.
Wayne Miller: Good point, just seems that Emily and Chris planned out how this match will play out.
Paige sits up and wipes at a runny nose, not bloody just yet, and as she gets up she meets a big boot to the side of her face. Paige rolls over and tries to get up yet again, but this time Emily hits a dropkick that seems to come from nowhere. Emily picks Paige up and heads to the ringside that has the casket. Paige starts to fight back but Emily sets up Paige for a DDT and nails it, and continues her task of getting Paige near the casket. Emily gets closer and Paige comes around and realizes where Emily is headed, and Paige starts to struggle and squirm, getting away. Paige tries to shake the cobwebs from the mean looking DDT. Paige gets to her feet and gets in Emily’s face. Paige slaps the taste out of Emily’s mouth. Emily is pissed off for sure now, and Emily hits a kick to the hamstrings which Paige does wince in pain. But Emily falls for what Paige is doing, and Paige waits for Emily to face her….and lands a chest to Emily’s chest. Emily goes down but Paige continues to follow Emily and delivers a couple more blows, and then delivers a blasting kick to the head, dropping Emily.
Allie Queen: Paige is standing up from all the abuse yelling at Emily.
Emily throws a punch but Paige blocks the punch and Paige is now delivering her own punches and a chop to the best Ric Flair style, and another chop, and then a third chop and Emily is stunned. Paige kicks Emily in the gut and then Paige lifts Emily up and delivers a piledriver, and rolls Emily towards the the side with the casket and it doesn’t appear that Emily knows where she is in that ring. Paige taunts the crowd a bit and it’s just enough time to let Emily get a breath, and figure out where she is. Emily realizes in horror that she is way closer to the casket than she wants to be. Emily rolls out of the ring, and Chris comes around to talk to her. Whatever he’s saying, Emily is shaking her head no.
Paige waits for a few moments for Emily and Chris to break up their little meeting. Paige rolls to the outside, grabs Emily, and sends her ramming into the steel stairs with authority, and it’s obvious that it hurts. If it could get worse, it does as Paige is relentless and grabs a chair and waits on Emily. Emily rolls back in the ring, and Paige goes to hit Emily with the chair, but Emily gets both feet up to block the move. The move makes the chair nearly bounce back and hit Paige, but she manages to grab control the situation quickly. She drops the chair and charges at Emily, but Emily is thinking and steps out of the way. Paige nearly goes through the ropes but does stop herself as Emily dodges to the other side of the ring. Emily rolls out of the ring and is looking for something. Not finding what she wants immediately she gets back in the ring as Paige stalks her from the other side. Emily decides it’s better to fight htan run, and she turns on Paige and nails a standing dropkick out of nowhere! Emily picks up the chair Paige had before and manages to turn and catch Paige with it, causing the world champion to take a step back. Emily takes this as her chance to quickly end the match and goes outside the ring and opens the casket. Paige comes at Emily, but Emily neatly sidesteps Paige, and clubs Paige across the back, sending her to the canvas, stunned. Emily pulls Paige over to the corner and goes up on top rope. She sets up….and goes for a 450 splash! Emily is the first to come to her senses, and rolls Paige to the edge of the mat, then hoists Paige into the casket, but before Emily can get the lid anywhere near closed Paige kicks out and stops the momentum. Emily lands a few punches that stun Paige and Emily again goes to the top of the turnbuckle. She looks at Paige in the casket and then sets up….and hits a 450 splash onto Paige!
Allie Queen: Oh my……she might have actually just killed Paige.
Wayne Miller: But Emily has to get that lid close to win this match. And she’s not moving very quick.
Emily rolls off Page and onto the ground, but she’s feeling the full effect of two back to back splashes, and she’s holding her ribs as she tries to catch her breath. She gets to her feet and starts to get the lid down but when she still has about five inches to go….the lid is forced open the full way by Paige kicking out. She grabs Emily and bounces Emily’s head off the casket edge a couple times, sending Emily to the ground, totally dazed. Paige crawls out of the casket and looks up to see Chris Desmond directly in front of her, with Emily in between. He stops where he’s at as Paige pulls Emily up. She grabs Emily’s arm and sends her crashing into the mat edge, and then waits patiently until Emily finally turns around….to a superkick!
Allie Queen: How the hell did Paige do that?
Paige pulls Emily up and manages to get Emily in the casket. Emily tries to sit up, but Paige lands a couple very solid shots to Emily, and Emily is reeling. Paige reaches up and goes to close the lid but Emily gets a leg out, and her leg takes the effect of the casket lid slamming down. A yell of anguish can be heard, and Chris Desmond is trying to stay his distance, but the yell wasn’t normal.
Wayne Miller: I hope that didn’t injure Emily.
Allie Queen: I have to agree on that. It certainly hurt Emily.
Paige stalks around the ring at Chris Desmond but instead she should be watching Emily, as Emily has managed to get the lid back open and is slowly crawling out of the casket. She puts her uninjured leg down first, then puts down the one caught, and she winces as she puts weight on it. But she sees Paige, and goes after her. She comes up behind Paige, who is focused on Chris. Paige turns around….and Emily hits her with a stiff right that sends Paige back a couple steps. Chris moves forward to help, but Emily shakes her head no, and grabs at Paige. She rolls Paige into the ring, perhaps the smartest move as it’s also the quickest way to the casket. She pulls Paige up and goes for a clothesline but Paige is coherent enough and lands a kick to the injured leg that sends Emily down in pain. She doesnt yell out, but it’s obvious that there is a bit of injury to it. Paige comes off the ropes and catches a stiff dropkick to the upper back that sends Emily forward, and stuns her. Paige pulls Emily up and Emily wobbles on her feet when Paige backs up to the ropes and charges with a clothesline to Emily that nearly takes her head off and Emily is down and not moving. Paige rolls Emily over to the edge…..
Wayne Miller: Could this be it?
Allie Queen: I don’t want to look.
Paige pulls a still wobbly Emily out of the ring and gets her over to the casket. She lands a stiff right to Emily that would have dropped her to the floor if Paige has not been holding her. Paige gets under Emily’s weight and lifts her, putting Emily in the casket. Emily isn’t fighting back and Chris is edging closer to Paige. Paige gets all of Emily in the casket and reaches up…..
Wayne Miller: NO! She cant lose this way!
Allie Queen: Emily picked it for a reason, and it looks like she was right.
Paige pulls the lid down, closer and closer……and it closes! Emily Desmond is trapped inside the casket!
DING! DING! DING!
Anne Carpenter: Your winner…..and NEW SCW Alternative champion….Paige Lewis!
Wayne Miller, nearly in tears: NO! Emily………
Chris Desmond seems moved to tears to as he goes and opens the casket to get Emily out. The referee is handing the Alternative title to Paige, who isn’t too cocky about it. Chris pulls Emily out of the casket, and Emily is unsteady in her feet and may not be certain she’s lost. Chris backs up with Emily, and while Emily doesn’t say much Chris is screaming at Paige.
Chris: She’ll get it back you bitch! That title is Emily’s!
Allie Queen: We just saw…..a…..
Wayne Miller: Miracle would suffice.
Paige raises the Alternative title in the air, and the crowd is shocked at the sudden end of the nearly two year reign of Emily Desmond. Over the roaring of the crowd,
Allie Queen: This match was nasty and fast, and both are walking away with scars.
Wayne Miller: It wasn’t supposed to be pretty. I’ll tell you what, though, you have to admire the confidence of our SCW World Heavyweight Champion, and new SCW Alternative Champion, coming out here alone.
Allie Queen: Wow. I’m still shocked. Hang on, what the hell?
Two masked people jumped out of the crowd and tossed Emily and Chris into the ring as Paige’s music stopped. Paige charged at Chris, taking him down with a Spear that nearly cut him in half. When Emily struggled to her feet, Paige turned to her, kicked her in the gut, grabbed her arm and twisted her into the air.
Wayne Miller: What the hell is going on?! Oh shit, Paige has Emily set up for the Imprint, but that’s Jessica’s finisher!!!
Paige drives Emily into the mat hard and rolls away to her knees. After a few seconds, she stands and demands a microphone. Chris got to his feet, however, and charged at her. She sidestepped him, and then grabbed his arm before delivering another Imprint, driving him head first into the mat. She stood up and picked her mic up.
Paige Lewis: Now…in case anyone has forgotten, or is simply mistaken…let me make something clear. THIS is MY ring, and there is not a damn thing anybody can do about it. Larissa…YOU’RE NEXT!
The two masked men removed their masks, revealing The Ryders! The crowd exploded now, having not seen the former SCW Tag Team Champions in quite some time. They both picked up Paige’s belts and handed them to her, before holding the ropes open for her to exit the ring. Swan Song by Dua Lipa began playing again as the trio walked up the ramp.
Allie Queen: Paige Lewis just put the entire roster on notice, and laid Hellfire out single handedly!
Wayne Miller: Larissa had better hope she can stand after this match tonight. She has already been brutalized by Urakih. Paige clearly is here to prove something, especially after the first Survival. Now, Paige will get a 15 minute break before she comes out again to defend the SCW World Heavyweight Championship against Larissa.
Allie Queen: Tonight is insane. We’ll be right back, ladies and gentlemen, as we prepare for the main event.
WINNER: PAIGE LEWIS
NEW SCW ALTERNATIVE CHAMPION
Cameras are backstage at Survival and are coming up on a dressing room where it sounds like it’s being dismantled. Sean Foster motions the camera over.
Sean: Be prepared for anything and be ready to run. She’s not in a good mood.
Sean steps in and Emily is sitting as her dad is trying to get her to keep an ice pack on her knee. Besides the chair she’s sitting in, the rest of the chairs, and the bench in the room have either been overturned or thrown in the corner. It seems the legendary Brewster temper does exist in Emily. Sean carefully comes closer. She sees the mic and frowns at him and her dad, but her dad nods towards Emily. She nods and he kneels beside her, looking at Chris a bit worried.
Sean: Emily, how are you doing?
Emily: How am I doing? I LOST MY BELT!!! That bitch not only beat me, but she tried to injured me! Dropping a casket lid on my leg? And then she attacked us!
Sean: How….is the leg?
Emily: You should know. You’ve been conspiring with my dad to go to the hospital.
Emily stands up, standing on the injured leg. She winces but she stands up steady.
Emily: But since you’re here I’m going to say some things that honestly I dont give a shit if the fans like it or not. This evening out there, Paige Lewis, who has NO business going after my title given she’s also the world champion, took my title. I’m going to Neela Shizeguma as soon as I can, and not only will I schedule a rematch but Paige…I’m coming for YOUR title. Oh I know you haven’t had your match tonight but if you get beat? Then you never deserved to be world champion, and certainly don’t belong as Alternative champion tonight. In fact your actions prove to me that you’ll pull all kind of shady shit to get ahead, and hold it all. Is that the legacy you want Paige, holding all the gold? Because you’re halfway there. But don’t worry. Soon Neela will be calling you and telling you that I am getting my title back and just so it’s fair….just you and me, if you want to put up the world title at the same time, well honestly I prefer you wait. One title at a time. That way there’s no question. And no “oh you have another match first” or whatever you beg Neela to do. Although being a former champion of this company……and now the GM, Neela will be fair and see things my way. Honestly right now I hope your little bitch ass gets beat, but we can’t have your fans seeing that, now can we?
Emily picks up the chair she had been sitting in, and Chris backs up out of the picture, worried. Sean sees him, and sees Emily, and is thinking like Chris. But Emily isn’t quite done.
Emily: I AM the best champ…….I AM the BEST WRESTLER in SCW and it’s a matter of time Paige before you are beaten down at my feet. I know I can’t pick my next match type, but I know what it would be, I would take a page out of my mom’s playbook. If you or our GM want to know, give me a call. I’ll be happy to tell your bitch ass what it is, and it will make your blood run cold, because it is truly a life and death type of match. Accept the match….and your life is in your hands. Now….GET OUT!!!!
Emily throws the chair at the general direction of Sean and the cameraman as both make hasty retreats out of the locker room running into Chris outside. Sean looks back at the door that is closed, although destruction can still be heard. He looks at Chris.
Sean: What type of match is she talking about?
Chris: Your guess is as good as mine. Right now? She has even me scared.
************
Backstage, Jenna Carson is standing in the dressroom of Paige Lewis. The blonde champion looks exhausted but excited. On one shoulder, she held the SCW World Heavyweight Championship, and on the other, she held the SCW Alternative Championship.
Jenna: Ladies and gentlemen, I’m standing here with a woman who is redefining SCW, one match at a time. I’m talking about Paige Lewis, the SCW World Heavyweight Champion, and the NEW SCW Alternative Champion. Miss Lewis, how are you feeling right now?
Paige Lewis: Jenna, I’ve done this before. Stood here, holding two singles championships. But, I wonder if this moment might be bigger. Back then, I was a rookie who had walked into Spring Meltdown as the North American Champion and somehow left with it and the World Heavyweight Championship. Now, I’m two years in, and I’m mere days away from having held the world title for a year, and now, I have just defeated Emily Desmond to become the SCW Alternative Champion. How do I feel? I feel amaz-
Suddenly, Princess Kiya stepped into the frame, and Paige stepped back.
Jenna: Hey, we have an interview going here! You can’t ju-
Princess Kiya made a gesture towards Jenna, and the young woman collapsed on the spot. Then, she turned her attention back to Paige Lewis. She smiled briefly before speaking.
Princess Kiya: Paige, my pupil. I am delighted to see your success continue.
Paige Lewis: I am no longer your pupil, Kiya. And I’m not afraid of you anymore.
The Egyptian woman grinned amusedly.
Princess Kiya: You should be. You think you’re safe with the Dragon? You think she will protect you? From me, even? Surely you are not this foolish, my dear, to think she cares for you?.
Paige’s stance stiffened now, as she got upset.
Paige Lewis: You? When I was held in the desert, being beaten, starved, and sexually assaulted, did YOU come and rescue me, Kiya?! No! It was Jessica and her team. Did you deliver me safely to my mother on the runway at Heathrow? No, it was Jessica. And did you do all of this while recovering from a broken arm, Kiya? No, again, that was Jessica. So don’t you dare try to tell me that you are better for me than Jessica. You abandoned me, and she rescued me.
Princess Kiya: I searched for ages, child. You were well hidden from me.
Paige Lewis: YOU ABANDONED ME! YOU BROKE YOUR PROMISE! I DID EVERYTHING YOU ASKED! AND YOU STILL ABANDONED ME!
The young blonde was screaming now as tears streamed down her face. Princess Kiya looked like she was going to speak, but instead she withdrew, and the door closed behind her with a gentle click. A few seconds later, Jenna awakened and struggled to her feet and found Paige sobbing.
Jenna: Paige? What’s going on? Are you alright?
As the scene faded, Jenna pulled Paige into a hug, trying to console her. The feed switched to the commentary team, Allie and Wayne.
Allie Queen: Ladies and gentlemen, what we’ve just witnessed is very shocking. For the first time, Paige Lewis has spoken of what she endured during the time she was abducted. And in the first major display of emotion from the young champion, she even burst into tears as she was confronted by her former mentor, Princess Kiya.
Wayne Miller: And we’ve suspected for quite some time that it was Jessica who rescued Paige Lewis, now we’ve got confirmation. This explains why they’ve been thick as thieves lately. I get the feeling Princess Kiya isn’t ready to let Paige go yet, though.
Allie Queen: We still have a few minutes before Paige is due back out here for her next match. She seemed really worked up after her interaction with Princess Kiya.
Wayne Miller: I’m sure she’ll be able to get herself together. The SCW World Heavyweight Championship is on the line. If we’ve learned anything, it’s that Paige will do whatever it takes to leave with that championship around her waist.
Allie Queen: She just competed in an absolutely grueling match against Emily Desmond, and even though she came out victorious, you know she wants to get her next match over with.
Wayne Miller: I still can’t believe she demanded she compete in back to back matches.
Allie Queen: Paige Lewis has spent nearly every minute of her career proving a point. Tonight, she can once again prove that she is the real deal.
Wayne Miller: Sometimes, it is hard to believe that this is the same young woman who, merely two years ago, burst onto the scene and began her rise to the top of SCW.
Allie Queen: She is definitely going to go down in our history books as one of the fastest rising stars. Tonight is another chapter of her excellence, and the example she is setting for the rest of the organization.
Wayne Miller: Tonight has already been amazing. We saw Priest claim the Interim SCW North American Heavyweight Championship in very short order. And then, Larissa suffered a massive beatdown at the hands of Adatu Urakih, losing the SCW International Heavyweight Championship, but not before breaking the arm of the new champion.
Allie Queen: Mr. Walker actually told me once that this Pay Per View was originally about Paige Lewis. The idea was, could Paige Lewis ‘survive’ her encounter with Jessica Tendonin. We all know how that went down.
Wayne Miller: Every opponent she has faced since then has brought it up, but here is the thing. She has lost ONE match in her entire career. She lost that match to Jessica Tendonin. There is only one Jessica Tendonin.
Allie laughed now.
Allie Queen: Technically, there are two now.
Wayne Miller: You know what I mean. Everyone seems to think that proves that everyone can suddenly defeat this unstoppable woman. All it proves was that Jessica could beat her. Tonight, two get the chance to try. One has already failed. Eventually…we just have to say it.
Allie Queen: Say what, exactly, Wayne?
Wayne Miller: If Paige keeps things up the way she has…she could just build one hell of a legacy for herself.
Allie Queen: Unless Emily Desmond gets her way.
Wayne Miller: I’m getting word that it’s time for the main event. Larissa should be out here shortly, and they are already backing the ambulance out here.
When the ambulance was parked, Anne stood in the ring.
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is your main event of the evening, and it is for the SCW World Heavyweight Championship! It will be contested under Ambulance Match rules, and the only way to win is to lock your opponent in the back of the ambulance. Introducing first, the challenger, hailing from Shanghai, China, she is the former SCW International Heavyweight Champion, weighing in at one hundred and ten pounds…LARISSA!!!
The Chinese National Anthem sounded now, and a few seconds later, Larissa confidently walked out onto the stage. With her nose in the air, the challenger began strutting towards the ring. Larissa walked with a noticeable limp, and her face was bruised up, but she still looked confident as she climbed into the ring.
Anne Carpenter: And her opponent, weighing in at one hundred, fifty five pounds from London, England, she is the SCW World Heavyweight Champion and the new SCW Alternative Champion…the Black Princess, Paige Lewis!!!
Swan Song by Dua Lipa began playing. The crowd cheered loudly. After a few seconds, the Champion walked out onto the stage, the belts around her waist. She makes her way down to the ring, moving slowly as she eyes Larissa.
Allie Queen: Tonight, Paige Lewis will be leaving with at least 1 championship, but if she can defeated the already battered Larissa, she leaves with 2.
Wayne Miller: Paige made a very clear statement after winning the Alternative Championship here tonight, and she seemed to get a bit emotional with Princess Kiya, but if she can hold it together, she will set yet another precedent here in SCW. Or, Larissa could slip through the cracks and find herself the SCW World Heavyweight Champion.
Paige Lewis paused on the ramp, looking around the arena, smiling. As she continued, she stopped at ringside, where her parents were. Usually, she would simply wave or kiss them. Now, she climbed over the barricade and pulled both of them into a massive hug. The crowd cheered at this.
Allie Queen: I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone consistently bring their parents to events like Paige does, and she always shows them the greatest affection. She clearly has a lot of love and respect for them, and her fans love it.
Wayne Miller: Tonight, Paige has repeated history already. Paige Lewis is the first of only two people to ever hold two singles championships concurrently in SCW, and the only person to have done it twice. Jessica Tendonin is the other. Tonight, if Paige can stop Larissa and toss her in an ambulance, she will finally achieve her goal of being SCW World Heavyweight Champion for a year. She has taken on every challenge put in front of her. In a feat that rivaled her decimation of Jessica Tendonin, tonight Paige has captured the coveted SCW Alternative Championship, a prize that has been the envy of many.
Paige had signed a couple of autographs and took some pictures after hugging her parents. Now, she was climbing back over the barricade.The dual champion pulled herself up onto the apron and launched herself over the top rope. After handing over her belts, she was checked for weapons. A moment later, the bell rang.
Allie Queen: And we are underway, in what has the potential to be a career ending or career making match for Larissa. Can you imagine if we all wake up tomorrow to the fact that Larissa is SCW World Heavyweight Champion?
Wayne Miller: I try not to think about my nightmares.
Larissa and Paige clashed in the center of the ring. Larissa went down a clothesline, but Paige ducked it and sent her into the ropes with a Dropkick to the back. Larissa sprung out of the ropes into a massive Spinebuster that dripped her into the mat. Paige them mounted the challenger and began wailing on her. By the time the referee managed to pull Paige off of Larissa, the challengers face had be smashed open.
Allie Queen: We know Paige has been getting boxing training, and she already knew how to use her hands. I don’t think Larissa is going to want too many more of those shots.
Wayne Miller: Yeah, but the goal isn’t just to beat the other person up. You’ve gotta incapacitate them and lock them in the ambulance.
Larissa struggled to her feet, and Paige charged at her, driving the pair tumbling out of the ring. Paige was back on her feet quickly, and grabbed Larissa by the hair, slamming her into the ground, face first. Paige reached under the ring, pulling out a steel chair. Opening it, she placed it in the open and picked up Larissa.
Allie Queen: What’s she got planned here?
Wayne Miller: I don’t know, but it can’t be good for Larissa.
Paige picked Larissa up by the hair and drove her knee into her gut a few times. Larissa blocked the last one, and then took control of Paige, and slammed her face into the seat of the chair several times. The champion was busted open now. The crowd reeled in shock. Larissa whipped Paige into the steel steps and the champion tumbled over them.
Allie Queen: Larissa taking control here. We know momentum can swing like pendulum.
Wayne Miller: Paige can take a great deal of punishment, though, we’ve learned that time and time again.
Paige was getting to her feet when Larissa kicked her in the face, making her recoil and fall to the ground. Larissa picked the champion up and began striking her in the midsection. Paige instinctively put her hands up, guarding her head. Larissa got several good shots in before Paige lashed out, catching her chin. With Larissa out cold, Paige began walking towards the ambulance.
Allie Queen: Larissa is out cold!
Wayne Miller: Those boxing lessons have been paying off!
Paige reached the ambulance and opened the rear doors. Pulling out the stretcher, she checked it to make sure it was stable. As she turned to the ring with it, Larissa was struggling to her feet. Paige shoved the stretcher down the ramp and a few seconds later it collided with Larissa.
Allie Queen: Oh my gosh, right in the face!
Wayne Miller: Ever since Paige came back, we’ve seen a more destructive side to her. A real meanstreak, if you will, and honestly, I’m loving it. Paige has always been too nice and docile, and I’m liking seeing her take charge and remind everyone just who the hell she is.
Paige padded down the ramp and began stomping away at Larissa before picked her up. Between shots to her midsection, Paige spoke to Larissa.
Paige Lewis: So, you like breaking arms, bitch? I’m gonna break your whole damn body!
Allie Queen: And I think we’re seeing Paige snap!
Wayne Miller: Oh my, there she goes!
Paige suddenly took Larissa into the air and then drove her through the chair with the Imprint. Larissa went limp again as Paige stood. Looking around the arena, Paige began smiling. Picking Larissa up, the champion rolled the challenger onto the stretcher and strapped her onto it.
Allie Queen: Oh here it is! We’re in the endgame now!
Wayne Miller: It’s not over yet!
Paige gestured towards the stage area, and a moment later, the Ryders came out, carrying a ladder that hand to be 50 feet long. The crowd exploded as the twins brought the ladder to the ring and began setting it up inside of the ring.
Allie Queen: That is the biggest ladder I’ve ever seen! Wait, is she gonna climb it?!
Wayne Miller: She said she was gonna break Larissa’s body, but this just might break both of their bodies!
When the ladder was set up, Paige rolled into the ring and began climbing it while the Ryders held it stead. Reaching the top, the champion steadied herself before looking down at Larissa. By now, Larissa had come around and was screaming as she looked up and saw Paige. Paige held up both middle fingers and then jumped. With flips and revolutions, the young champion seemed to fall in slow motion, even though it only took a split second.
Allie Queen: OH MY GOD!!!
Wayne Miller: That looked like a Corkscrew Swanton, and from that height, Larissa has to be done for!
Paige came crashing down on Larissa like an avalanche. The stretcher collapsed to the ground as Paige nearly split the challenger in half. Paige was in pain, but she only too a moment to get back to her feet. The stretcher was destroyed, so she grabbed one of the straps and began dragging it to the ambulance.
Allie Queen: Paige Lewis has this one in the bag!
Wayne Miller: I have to agree with you now. There is no way Larissa can come back from this.
Paige reached the ambulance and climbed in, yanking the stretcher halfway inside. Climbing out, Paige shoved the stretcher the rest of the way inside before slamming the door shut. As the bell rang and her music began, she collapsed to her hands and knees. Anne began making the announcement.
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, here is your winner, and STILL SCW World Heavyweight Champion…PAIGE LEWIS!!!
Allie Queen: PAIGE LEWIS HAS RETAINED THE SCW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP!!!
Wayne Miller: They said she couldn’t do it again. But tonight, Paige has proven she can still compete in two matches in one night. And what’s more, she did it back to back. At this point, Paige Lewis has done the impossible.
As Paige was still on all fours, Jessica Tendonin walked out onto the stage. Paige looked up at her and jumped to her feet, pulling the Paraguayan into a close embrace. When they stepped back, Jessica pointed to the ring, and they began walking down the ramp. The crowd exploded seeing the pair together. When they reached the ring and got to the apron, the Ryders held the ropes open for them.
Allie Queen: Paige and Jessica, united once again. I have to say, this is a dangerous thing for everyone looking to come at either of them.
Wayne Miller: The idea behind the first Survival was asking if Paige could Survive Jessica. Now, seeing Jessica escort Paige back to the ring at the second edition of this event, there is something poetic. Tonight, Paige didn’t just survive; she thrived.
The referee handed Paige her belts and she smiled as she held them in the air. The Ryders lifted her onto their shoulders and confetti began falling from the ceiling. A moment later, Urakih, the new SCW International Heavyweight Champion walked out onto the stage, her arm in a cast, the championship around her waist. As she got to the ring, Jessica held the ropes open. The Ryders put Paige down and Urakih looked at both of them, and then smiled at one, pulling him into a kiss. Kennedy ran a hand through her hair as he pulled her closer.
Allie Queen: Urakih and Kennedy have finally been reunited! Remember, The Ryders were also under Princess Kiya’s control!
Wayne Miller: That’s our show, ladies and gentlemen. Tonight has been insane! Thank you for watching!
The Pay Per View ended with a shot of the five wrestlers standing in the ring.
WINNER: PAIGE LEWIS

Emily Desmond and Alzy Hawkshaw are backstage at Overdrive 51, and they seem to be looking for something, or someone. Emily knocks on a door, opens it.
Emily: Anyone in here?
Nothing but silence so the pair continue down the hallway till there is a door on Alzy’s side. He knocks and opens the door…and gets yelled at by one of SCW’s divas to shut the door.
Alzy: Not there either.
Finally we see Sean Foster training behind them, and he looks puzzled. After a couple more doors he finally has to ask……
Sean: Are you two looking for someone?
Emily stops and looks at Sean and shakes her head as if he’s the most confused person.
Emily: You want to know what or who I’m looking for? It’s simple. I’m looking for my mom! Apparently she snuck back into SCW without me looking. Or at least Cam, which I would love to team with him.
Alzy: It seems that a certain person, who for the moment we won’t expose them yet, feels that there are people on the roster, or …..I don’t know. I think he’s hit his head once too often.
Sean, along with the cameraman, follow Emily and Alzy, who are still looking. Finally Sean can’t hold it in any longer.
Sean: Who are you looking for?
Emily: Well we’re thinking…..it seems Brian Kennedy knows stuff we don’t. For example, he seems to think that my mom is lurking around here somewhere.
Alzy: We watched what he said to Mills and wow…..I think he’s been enjoying his “recreation” a bit too much. See he said that Mills needs to up his game, which I’m not sure Brian should be taking Johnathan so calmly, but I hope it leads to his downfall. But he told Mills that he could ….
Emily looks at Alzy.
Emily: How did he put it? You know the whole “bandwagon” thing?
Alzy: Ah yes, the whole that Mills needs to either get with it or join the bandwagon that Herrera is part of OR that “Brewster and her clan”. Um Emily I know we’re family and all, and it’s just one of the millions of reasons we’re tag partners, but when did your mom return to SCW? I mean….she’s rather busy these days, but I would think she’d tell US that she was coming back to SCW before anyone else.
Emily: Oh definitely. Leaving SCW wasn’t an easy decision for her, and now and then I think she ….contemplates returning, but her life needs to settle down a bit.
Emily and Alzy continue down the hall, checking doors that open up, and finally Emily stops in the middle of the hall backstage and yells.
Emily: MOM!! WHERE ARE YOU HIDING?
Alzy stops moving upon hearing this, and they both wait for an answer. Of course there is no response and Emily and Alzy exchange a “I told you so” look.
Emily: See Kennedy? No Lynn Brewster in SCW. Hell she’s so busy right now that even making it to see me wrestle is a bit of a challenge and then she’s out there in the front row, she’s bought a ticket, and has a legit reason to be where she is. But if you think you’ve been seeing her backstage, you need to get glasses then. Or lay off ……other things.
Alzy: And then Kennedy the name of our team is Hellfire. Not “Brewster Hell Fire”. You can’t even get your previous opponents’ team names right, but that’s probably why you don’t recognize who we are. You’re looking for Lynn! Or you’re still suffering from when Brian Brewster, the only other person named Brewster who’s been in SCW, beat the living shit out of you. Sorry but I’m not going to sugar coat something for an idiot who can’t even remember who he has faced or will face. Try and keep up, ok?
Emily: As for the whole “winning and claiming the top” is a hoot to hear YOU say. Why? Because um…..who didn’t beat Paige not once, not twice, not EVER for the SCW World Heavyweight title? Now I’ve yet to have the privilege to face Paige, and it’s a match that I know I will be facing at Survival, but Kennedy that should have been a walk in the park because you are so great. But Brian, come here….
Emily wiggles her index finger to have the cameraman move in closer, as if about to share a great secret.
Emily: You didn’t beat Paige, she beat you. By the way, you may have been champion in the old SCW, but that ended when Mr. Walker reopened SCW, when Lynn and Cam, along with Brian and Neela, they made a group decision to walk away. I think all this confusion on who it is that you keep facing is coming from a nagging thing.
Emily walks away and catches up with Alzy, who hasn’t made it very far.
Alzy: That nagging thing is that Brian Brewster beat the oh so great….
Alzy rolls his eyes at saying this.
Emily: Oh so great Brian Kennedy. Well Kennedy you ain’t shit, and you know it. I’ve proven I can beat you, in fact I’ve beat a great number of people in SCW as they come and go, but I’ve remained stationed here, ruling a federation that attracts all kinds of people and YOU are one of the has beens. Now I have a feeling you will beat Mills, which sucks but it happens. I faced Mills, and he’s not as tough to beat as one would think.
Alzy: Now….we come to the next of our …issues with you. That is …you seem SO determined to beat someone who isn’t here, you’re now acting like they just refuse to talk. Nope! You never faced Cam Davitt, NEVER! I’ve done my research, I looked back clear until 2004 and never….never ever you even faced him. So why this obsession with him being in SCW? I mean….he did train the lady who holds the Alternative title.
Alzy holds his hand out to present Emily, who takes a bow.
Alzy: But Cam left with Lynn, Brian and Neela. Now I know there are times Emily might wish he was around now and then to ask for his advice, but I’ve faced Cam, which is the other reason I know you never faced him. You would never forget is you had. I’ve faced him….for 45 minutes we took each other to the limit and then even further. So while him and I have come to be….well try not to kill each other, I can say with certainty that he’s not around. Plus Kennedy, do you remember what happened at the LAST Megacup? Oh yeah, you got beat by ME. Now I won’t deny that things didn’t go my way, but I gave everything and earned my opponents’ respect, not run my mouth about them,
I have a question.
The camera turns around 180 degrees to see Chris Desmond, impeccably dressed as usual, straightening the of his jacket, and sees the camera is waiting on him.
Chris: Now please forgive my interruption while my colleagues continue the search to prove Anna Lynn, Cam, Santa Claus, you name whoever you want is hiding, although they aren’t even HERE, but I thought you were part of Empire, or do you just pull out names willy nilly? Hell in that case we’re changing our name to Feral Destruction…Yeah, no we are not. Feral Destruction is led by Lynn Brewster and Cam Davitt. Hellfire is Emily Desmond and Alzy Hawkshaw. Now do I need to get Ancestry.com to do their DNA test to prove that who you are talking about are not anywhere around.
Emily: HEY!
The cameraman turns to face Emily, who has made her way down the hall at an impressive speed.
Emily: Promise you this Kennedy, if we find Lynn or Cam, or even both, we’ll be sure to pass along your concern for their well being. I’m sure they would love to show you why you need to figure out who the hell you want to face in that ring. So keep talking….and see how long it takes to bring it down upon you.
Camera fades to black.
The Titantron lit up, showing a silver Nissan GTR cruising down the interstate. After a few seconds, the feed stopped.
Wayne Miller: That was odd…
Allie Queen: Oh, don’t worry about that! We’ve got a match right now!
Anne Carpenter: The following contest is a first round match of the SCW Mega Cup! Introducing first, from Chicago Heights, making his SCW debut…CASH ALLAN!!!
“Kill Tomorrow” by Mushroomhead hits the pa system with static… As the track hits the lights begin to flash on and off. As this happens smoke fills the entrance area. Then as the lyrics begin Cash walks out onto the entrance stage. He looks to his left and then right before slowly walking down toward the ring as the second verse begins and the lights flash more heavily at this time. Cash then makes it to the ring and jumps up onto the ring apron and enters the ring as the chorus hits. He walks to the near corner and climbs the ropes and looks out onto the crowd and puts his arms out to his sides as he closes his eyes and takes in the boos and cheers. Cash then jumps down off the ropes as “Kill Tomorrow” slowly fades.
Allie: Cash Allan is making his SCW debut tonight, but he’s got a huge test ahead of him in the monster Priest.
Wayne: Priest returned at TLC, and we all made the mistake of counting out his opponent. I’m sure Priest will be looking to pick a victory here and put himself back in the hunt.
Anne Carpenter: And his opponent…Priest!
Passive by A Perfect Circle hits the PA system. As Priest steps onto the stage, the crowd gives him a mixed reaction. Stopping in the middle of the ramp, Priest glares into the crowd with a sinister smile. As the opening guitar riffs start to kick in, the lights in the arena flicker on and off as flaming pyro’s go off. After a couple seconds, Priest twist his neck to crack his spine and heads down the ramp. Once he gets to the ring, he removes his black sunglasses and taunts tossing them into the crowd, but doesn’t. He sees a child walks over to him, and acts like he’s going to give it to him. But instead of giving them to the child, he drops them to the floor and stomps on them. The challenger laughs now as he climbs into the ring.
Allie: Last year, Alzy Hawkshaw managed to gather two championship matches out of this series, and one of these men could be picking up a shot at gold ver soon!
Wayne: The winner of this match will move on the the second round, and you know both of them are looking for that quick ride to the top.
The bell rang and the two men met in the center. As they shook hands, out of nowhere, Masked Avenger appeared, sliding into the ring and running both of them over. The referee signaled for the bell as Masked Avenger began attacking both men, breaking the match up.
Allie: Oh lord! Why? Why is Masked Avenger doing this? He lost, but was getting a second chance! Why would he interrupt this match and ruin the Mega Cup like this?!
Wayne: I swear to God these newbies are on crack!
After a moment, SCW Security stormed the ring and managed to pull Masked Avenger out of the ring and subdue him. The crowd was in an uproar, angry about the match falling apart.
Allie: I can’t believe this!!!
Wayne: He’s lucky Mr. Walker isn’t here! His ass would be fired on the spot!
The feed cut to an ad, showing an upcoming movie.
“I’m Just A Girl” by No Doubt plays and Emily Desmond appears, dressed in blue jeans and a tshirt, over which she is wearing a black leather jacket. The Alternative title is over one shoulder, and Emily has a grip on it as well. With her is her father, Chris Desmond, and he says something to her and they make their way down to the ring. Once they are ringside Emily climbs in the ring and gets a mic, while Chris chooses to stay simply at ringside.
Emily: Ok, ok let’s quiet this down.
Allie: Seems Emily is a bit …..testy tonight.
Wayne: I actually liked her little thing about Kennedy.
Emily: Ok this evening I called into question the mental capabilities of a certain Brian Kennedy, a man who is a lot of talk but seems to have trouble always following through. Case and point, he’s oh so great, then why is it Paige Lewis is the SCW World Heavyweight champion and not you? Oh….I know, its cause you couldn’t beat her! I’ve looked at your record and with the exception of when you’re in a tag team, you seem to have some issues. Wait…..I see it now, you can’t do it on your own!
The crowd cheers at this, as they are far from being Brian Kennedy’s fans.
Emily: But right now I’m here to announce something, and I would love the woman who is involved to please come out here so I can say it directly to her, and she knows that i did indeed say it. So Paige, if you please, would you join me in the ring?
Spotlight by Hot Tag Media Works began playing. The crowd cheered loudly. After a few seconds, the SCW World Heavyweight Champion walked out onto the stage, the belt around her waist. She watches Chris, who is acting like he has no other care in the world except to nod at her, and she goes up the ring steps and climbs in the ring, now trying to keep an eye on Chris Desmond AND Emily Desmond.
Emily: Paige, I wanted you to be out here tonight because I want to ….clear the air, and make sure there are no misunderstandings about what happens after tonight.
Paige looks at Emily, a bit confused but she sticks with the Alternative champion.
Emily: First off Paige, know that while I may not LIKE you, I do respect you. Not many people have earned my respect, but you are one of them for the simple fact that you aren’t afraid to defend your title, you aren’t afraid to step in the ring, and you aren’t afraid to speak your mind. Those are all qualities that I can admire because I feel I’m the same way, and I’m sure no one can say we aren’t the top of SCW, including the lady who thinks she’s going to defeat you, Larissa. So I’d like to offer my hand…..in a show of respect.
Emily holds out her right hand and Paige looks from Emily’s face to her hand, and back to Emily’s face. Paige looks around the crowd who are yelling to not do it, but Paige reaches out and Emily grasps Paige’s hand and shakes it.
Emily: Paige you are a hell of a competitor, one who knows precisely what she wants, or what she’ll say when she talks, unlike others in this company who can’t even keep it straight who are in the company….
Wayne: Uh oh….Emily needs to be careful here.
Emily: Now Paige, the second reason I wanted you out here this evening is pretty simple. See at Survival in a few weeks we will finally have the meeting of the minds, so to speak. You and I will climb in this ring and face off against each other and you have a chance to….well make history by taking the Alternative title from me. Well know that I don’t intend on losing, as I have a goal for myself as to how long I will hold it. Oh I know they are saying someone new should hold it, but Paige can we at least agree that beyond you and me….there really isn’t anyone better than you and me to hold this title?
Paige nods in agreement.
Emily: So that being said, as you know or will know, I’ve been allowed to pick my match type, and I will admit that now that I’m looking at soon 600 days as champion, I’ve had to get extremely creative and for Survival it….it was like I got hit with thunderwave from Pikachu! So Paige, I have picked what the match will be…a Casket match!
Allie: Oh my God! No!
The crowd actually starts to cheer at this, as it definitely is not something one would expect of Emily, but as she said, she’s having to get creative. She waits for the crowd to settle down some before she continues.
Emily: It’s simple, first person to get the other IN the casket, and get the lid CLOSED all the way wins.
Paige: A Casket match. I’ve waited months to get this match. A casket match. I must say, I was not expecting that. When I threw my name into the hat to get this shot, all those months ago, my goal was very clear. I know the rules of the Alternative Championship. You’ve met all the requirements to be allowed to trade it for a shot at me. Mr. Walker told me that you couldn’t do it until you’d put down all pending challengers.
I want to make something very clear, Desmond. I’m neither afraid of you or this match. Fear holds you back in this busy. The last two years of my life have been…exciting. SCW Gave me a way to reinvent myself. When I won the North American Championship, people began taking notice. But, then, I managed to put Drew Stevenson down, and people realized…I’m legit.
I’ve watched you, and I’ve seen your ascension, as well. Jessica v Paige was one for the ages. Emily v Paige will be as well. You’ve been a great Alternative Champion. But, this cloud has been hanging over me for too long. I cannot allow you to leave SCW Survival as the SCW Alternative Champion. And I will do whatever it takes to make sure you do not.
With that, Paige dropped her mic and backed away, exiting the ring. Her music began playing again as she turned her back and began trekking up the ramp.
Wayne Miller: I don’t think anyone else could get away with turning their back on the Alternative Champion!
Allie Queen: That’s the SCW World Heavyweight Champion. Paige Lewis has proven, time and time again, she can hold her own.
The titantron came to life again, showing the same car from earlier, the Nissan GTR. This time, it was smoothly gliding into the garage backstage. The windows were all tinted, so there was no way to identify the driver. Pulling in behind it was a red Dodge Challenger Hellcat. Both cars parked. The driver of the HEMI rolled down their window, and Jessica’s smiling face appeared. She wasn’t just smiling, though. The Paraguayan was grinning so wide that it threatened to split her face. She said nothing as she rolled the window back up.
Wayne Miller: Jessica’s is here, and she seems to have brought a friend!
Allie Queen: I don’t like how she was grinning. She’s got something deep up her sleeve. But it’s time for our main event, and this will be interesting, as both men aqre partners of Jessica’s!
Anne Carpenter: The following contest is a first round match of the SCW Mega Cup, and it is the main event of the evening! Introducing first, weighing in at one hundred and fifty five pounds, Johnathan Mills!!!
“Storm” by Devin Townsend plays as Johnathan Mills makes his way to the ring. He has a burst of speed as he gets closer to the ring and he slides in, then climbs up the turnbuckle, listening to the crowd. Finally he hops down.
Wayne Miller: Mills so far in SCW has had a couple of matches, and overall, he’s really doing good. He recently challenged Emily Desmond for Alternative Championship, even.
Allie Queen: I don’t know what it’s going to take for someone to take the Alternative Championship off of Desmond, but when it happens, they’re going to have bring everything they’ve got. Mills came this close to taking the belt home. Tonight, he could put himself on the path to the Alternative Champion, or more!
Anne Carpenter: And his opponent, from Canton, Ohio, he is one of the SCW World Tag Team Champions…Brian Kennedy!!!
As the rhythm picks up after around a minute of music plays and the words start to work its way through the arena the lights cut out and a spot light shines at the top of the ramp. Brian is seen standing there with a smile, in his hand is a 20 lb sledge hammer.
He had alot to say.
He had alot of nothing to say.
(We’ll miss him. 2x)
He had alot to say.
He had alot of nothing to say.
(We’ll miss him. 2x)
(We’re gonna miss him. 2x)
So loooooong!
Fire shoots out from the stage. Smoke rises from the stage as he starts to walk toward the ring. He stops about Halfway to the ring as he flexes in front of the camera kissing his sledge hammer. He smirks in to the camera yelling snide remarks.
We wish you well.
You told us how you weren’t afraid to die.
Well so looooooong.
Don’t cryyyyy.
Or feel too down.
Not all martyrs see divinity.
But at least you tried.
He climbs up the steps and turns toward the crowd and taunts them by flipping them off and girls scream his name. He stops and turns back towards the crowd and jumps over the top rope and stands in the middle of the ring, he looks around and drops the sledge hammer and flexes as the flashes flow throughout the arena.
Standing above the crowd
he had a voice that was strong and loud.
(We’ll miss him. 2x)
Ranting and pointing his finger
at everything but his heart.
(We’ll miss him. 2x)
(We’re gonna miss him. 2x)
No wayyyyyy
to recall
what it was that you had said to me,
like I care at alll.
But he was sooo louuud.
You sure could yell.
You took a stand on every little thing
and soooo louuuuuuuuud.
You, could be, the one, who saves, me from, my own, existence.
He climbs all the turnbuckles yet again doing a pose with his arms spread out wide from each one as the music fades.
Wayne Miller: And here we go. The final match of the first round. Still no idea on what is going to happen after the first match of the evening was broken up.
Allie Queen: I’m sure Neela will address that as soon as possible.
As the referee checked both men for weapons, Kennedy passed his championship out of the ring. And then the bell rang. The two men met in the center. Kennedy put his hand out, and Mills went for a cheap shot. Kennedy stagger backwards before charging at the much smaller man.
Wayne Miller: I don’t think that was a smart decision by Mills!
Allie Queen: Mills is no fool. I’m sure he’s trying to throw Kennedy off just enough to capitalize.
Kennedy took Mills down but Mills rolled to his feet quickly. A round of right hands from Kennedy forced Mills into a corner quickly. Kennedy began unloading lefts and rights on Mills with no reprieve.
Wayne Miller: Kennedy is really laying into Mills.
Allie Queen: He’s got something to prove, and he wants to make sure everyone understand.
When Kennedy finally backed off, he turned and posed, pointing at Mills. Mills climbed the turnbuckle and launched himself, taking Kennedy down with a Reverse Neckbreaker. The crowd popped now as Kennedy rolled to one knee, holding his neck. Mills hit him with a Dropkick right to the neck, taking Kennedy down again.
Wayne Miller: Mills turned this match around in an instant.
Allie Queen: He knows what is at stake here. A win here almost guarantees a title shot at Spring Meltdown.
A huge Knee Drop to the face of Kennedy busted him open. Mills began stomping away on Kennedy, and the Tag Team Champion was barely able to slide out of the ring and catch a breather.
Wayne Miller: Mills wants that WIN!!!
Allie Queen: Kennedy antagonized Mills leading up to this match, and I’m sure he’s starting to regret it!
Mills rebounded off the ropes and launched himself out of the ring. The crowd roared with excitement when Kennedy caught him in midair before driving him through the barricade. The front row of fans only just managed to vacate their seats.
Wayne Miller: Pulling out all the stops!
Allie Queen: These two are not messing around, and THAT is why they are in the main event!
Kennedy was first to his feet. He dragged Mills back into the ring and threw him into a corner. When Kennedy went for a Shoulder Thrust, Mills countered with a Sunset Flip. Kennedy turned around and Mills charged at him. Kennedy sidestepped him and Mills was in the corner again. Kennedy grabbed Mills and sent him over with a Belly to Belly Suplex. Mills crashed into the mat and groaned.
Wayne Miller: Kennedy is working his way back into this thing!
Allie Queen: These two are back and forth! I can’t predict who will come out on top.
Kennedy advanced on Mills as he got to his feet. Mills charged at Kennedy and Kennedy ducked, grabbed Mills from behind, and nailed a German Suplex, and then another.
Wayne Miller: Kennedy is going for the close!
Allie Queen: He hit the money on two of them, will he get a third!?
Kennedy nailed the third German Suplex and held on, going for the pin.
Wayne Miller: That’s it! He hit the triple!
Allie Queen: Wait! The referee is about to count, but it looks like both of their shoulders are down!
The referee began the count with the crowd cheering loudly.
1……………2……………3!!!
Wayne Miller: That’s three! This is over!
Allie Queen: But who won?!
The referee leaned over the ropes, talking to Anne Carpenter. After a moment, she spoke.
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, the referee would like me to announce that both Brian Kennedy and Johnathan Mills had their shoulders on the mat when the pin began. However, just before the referee struck three, Brian Kennedy got his shoulder up. Therefore, the winner of this match, and moving on to the final match of the Mega Cup…Brian Kennedy!
The crowd erupted in cheered and and Kennedy celebrated as Mills slipped out of the ring.
Wayne Miller: Once again, Kennedy has made it to the final match of the Mega Cup!
Allie Queen: It’s not over for Mills yet, though! He still has a chance to get to the final match!
As the commercial break ended, Mustang Nismo by Brian Tyler hit the PA system and the fans cheered as the SCW General Manager, Neela Shizeguma walked out onto the stage. Carrying a briefcase, she walked briskly toward the ring.
Wayne Miller: And we know what time it is! Contract signing time!
Allie Queen: I’m glad to see Neela staying on top of things, after we’ve learned that she will be the General Manager indefinitely.
Climbing into the ring, Neela signaled for her music to stop as she opened the briefcase and began laying paperwork out. After finishing, she produced a microphone.
Neela Shizeguma: I will be honoring one of Mr. Walker’s last decisions, and that is for the winner of the updated main event of TLC to challenge for the SCW World Heavyweight Championship. So, Larissa, Paige Lewis, let me have you both come out here. No music, just come on out.
A moment later, Larissa happily skipped out onto the stage before making her way to the rong. She proudly wore the SCW International Heavyweight Championship around her waist and gestured to it as she climbed into the ring.
Wayne Miller: There is the new International champ, but where is Paige?
As Larissa settled in the ring, Spotlight by Hot Tag Media Works began playing, and the crowd popped. After a few seconds, Paige Lewis, the SCW World Heavyweight Champion, and Jessica Tendonin, walked out onto the stage. Paige wore the belt around her waist as they emerged and looked out around the crowd. The pair began making their way to the ring. Larissa and Neela stared at them but said nothing. As they entered the ring, someone passed them a pair of microphones.
Neela Shizeguma: Thank you for joining us, ladies, though I don’t remember asking for you yet, Jessica. It’s good you’re out here, though. Paige, Larissa, you both know why you’re out here. I’ve got your contracts laid out. If you could both sign for the World Heavyweight Championship match at Survival, WITHOUT issue…that will be appreciated.
Wayne Miller: $20 says they get into a fight instead of signing.
Allie Queen: You know what, I’ll take that action.
Amazingly, Paige and Larissa signed their contracts without issue. Neela turned to Jessica. Wayne passed $20 to Allie.
Neela Shizeguma: Jessica Tendonin. I remember you as being a mainstay of the Alternative Division, having held the belt twice. I always thought that one day, you and I would go at it, Champion vs Champion. Alas, it did not happen. We both wound up leaving this company, and made ourselves even bigger stars. I’ve got a lot of respect for you, and what you mean to this company. However, I’ve determined, on the advice of a team of doctors and lawyers, that I cannot let you compete at SCW Survival. Not even with a waiver. You have a broken arm, and it will not heal quick enough. I will allow you to choose someone to fight in your stead, however. You can pick anyone you want. Me? Wayne Miller? Hell, even your husband.
Wayne Miller: Pick me, Jessica!!!
Allie Queen: I’d pay to see that.
Paige Lewis looked around at the arena with a huge grin. Neela lifted her mic again.
Neela Shizeguma: Paige is not permitted to compete in this match. She’s already defending her own belt against Larissa, and before that, she’s going to be attempting to wrest the Alternative Championship away from Emily Desmond.
Jessica grinned as well before speaking.
Jessica Tendonin: She’s not grinning because of that. You see, I had a feeling something like this would happen. It’s true, my arm is broken. It’s also true that it will still be healing when SCW Survival happens. I’m no fool. I spoke to my own lawyers and doctors and came to the same conclusion. So, with that in mind, I knew the only thing that would make sense would be to put in an alternate. I was even praying you’d let me pick the replacement, too. She was coming back to SCW anyway, but we’ve moved up the schedule. We’ve been dropping hints since TLC. Before I jumped on my jet to head down here…I made a little phone call, and told her to be here tonight! With that being said…I would like to introduce the undefeated former SCW Alternative Champion, my replacement, facing Larissa for MY SCW International Heavyweight Championship!!!
Wayne Miller: Who is she talking about!?
Allie Queen: Hang on, does she mean-
MTBD by CL hit the PA system and filled the arena, joined by thunderous stomping and cheering by the audience.
Allie Queen: Oh my god!!!
Adatu Urakih slowly walked out onto the stage and somehow, the noise in the arena doubled. The Japanese Machine began strutting to the ring, a wide grin on her face. Halfway down the ramp, she stopped, looking at a sign in the crowd. Urakih rolled into the ring under the bottom rope and bowed to Jessica.
Wayne Miller: IT’S ADATU URAKIH!!! URAKIH IS BACK IN SCW!!!
Allie Queen: THE UNDEFEATED JAPANESE DRAGON HAS RETURNED!!!
After several minutes, the arena calmed down and Neela was able to speak.
Neela Shizeguma: Adatu Urakih. Welcome back to SCW. Do you accept the role as Jessica’s replacement?
Jessica handed Urakih her microphone.
Adatu Urakih: YES!
The crowd roared loudly as Urakih answered.
Wayne Miller: I am still in shock!!! Remember when she speared Fury out of a damn window?!
Allie Queen: And then, she literally walked back inside the arena to win the Alternative Championship!
Neela Shizeguma: Very well. At SCW Survival…Larissa will defend the SCW International Heavyweight Champion ship against Adatu Urakih! Ladies, if you will sign the set of contracts here.
Again, contracts were signed without any confrontation. Larissa lifted her mic to speak. Urakih stepped forward and raised her hand, signaling the crowd.
“URAKIH’S GONNA KILL YOU!!!”
Wayne Miller: Even with a broken arm, the odds were still in Jessica’s favor to retake the championship!
Allie Queen: But Larissa’s chances of retaining just plummeted, now that she has to defend against the monstrous Urakih! We’re out of time, but SCW Survival is going to be a must see! See you all in 2019!
Overdrive 51 went off the air with Jessica Tendonin, Paige Lewis, and Adatu Urakih grinning at Larissa, and Neela Shizeguma poised to jump between them if needed.

The SCW Commentary Team is shown now, Allie Queen and Wayne Miller.
Wayne: TLC WAS INSANE! If you missed it, you missed some insanity! The main event got changed!
Allie: Larissa somehow defeated Jessica Tendonin, and broke her arm! Let’s get this night started now! I need answers!
The camera finds Emily Desmond warming up before her match as Alzy is talking to her.
Alzy: I’m saying that I …..I’m willing to experience what happen before if we need to.
Emily:We’ll see. One step at a time. Which isn’t it time for your match?
Alzy nods and heads towards the entrance and Emily watches him for a moment before turning back to warming up. That’s when she sees the camera crew. Sean Foster is nowhere to be seen, which makes Emily a bit nervous as she knows that Sean will gently ask those questions that might be hard. But she finally smiles at the young lady holding the mic.
Emily: What can I do for you? Ane who are you?
Cassidy: I’m one of the new people Mr. Walker hired me because there seem to be a lack of people around.
Ok a subtle jab at Sean Foster, who has become Emily’s exclusive reporter backstage (well and her boyfriend).
Emily: Fair enough. Now did you do your history on my match or do I have to explain it to you?
Cassidy: I know its against Larissa, and she beat Jessica at TLC for the International title, and won. She also broke Jessica’s arm. Now knowing all of that do you have any….misgivings about this match?
Emily stops her stretching and looks at Cassidy like “are you kidding me?” Emily straightens up and she is about four inches taller than the newbie. Emily is losing her patience when suddenly a male voice is heard. He comes up, takes her mic, and makes a motion to shoo her away. He looks at Emily who is grateful to see him but also mad because he’s late and she had to put up with that creature.
Sean: Where we’re we?
Emily: She asked me if I had…..how did she put it? Misgivings about my match.
Sean: Ok, your thoughts on that?
Emily: Well it’s simple. People have been saying I need to be afraid of Larissa for that match at TLC, but if you think the fact that this match could turn into a hardcore match real quick doesn’t bother me one bit. Even if it doesn’t I’m still not afraid. If I had been afraid I would still be the Alternative title. So tell Laredo…..Larissa…..whichever one is her name that if she thinks she can scare me, she needs to keep thinking. Plus this match is a regular match, not hardcore in any way. Believe me, I double….triple checked that fact.
Sean: Larissa believes she can beat you.
Emily: Of course! If I was coming off a win as big as hers I would feel the same way. But I’m not letting my guard down. The minute I do that she’ll use it against me, try injuring me, or some other crap.
Sean: I know its something you’ve been waiting.
Emily: Paige;s title? You can put good money of that cause I do want it very, very badly.
Sean: And what do you think about Larissa being in the main event?
Emily: She should be pleased. You know why she’s in it don’t you?
Sean looks at her, definitely perplexed.
Emily: Simple….she’s facing me! She’s facing the best of SCW. l
Sean: Emily technically…..
Emily: Look it up Sean! They have updated the top 5 of SCW and I’M NUMBER ONE!
Emily stops and breathes, knowing if she’s not carefully that she’ll give herself away.
Emily: I’m the top of the company as we speak, and that should say something. I’m not sure who I’ll face at Overdrive 51, but I know this….I need to worry about Overdrive 50. I need to focus on it mostly because then I’ll show Miss Larissa she’s making issues she doesn’t want to start. Tell her I’ll see her in the ring and give her a taste of just who she’s facing.
Sean: There is a chance you could lose to her thought. You barely pulled la win at TLC.[/color[
Emily stares at Sean like he’s lost his mind. He finally realizes what he’s said and he cringes a bit. But Emily proves her composure in this matter.
Emily: I will win this match one way or another. If I have to break Larissa leg, or maybe give her a taste of what she did to Jessica and break an arm. Larisa decided she wanted the beast and then she poked the beast. Well Larissa I hope you’re ready because I’m comin for you. Next time….be careful what you see and be careful who you open your mouth to talk about.[/color[
Emily pushes by the cameraman and away from Sean Foster, leaving him to wonder what she means.
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, our opening bout of the evening is scheduled for a single fall, and it is a first round match for the SCW Mega Cup! Introducing first, from London, Ontario, Canada, he is the No Limits Phenomenon, Alzy Hawkshaw!
Raining Blood by Slayer plays as the lights start flashing red. Alzy Hawkshaw walks out onto the stage, and paused before making his way to the ring.
Allie Queen: I expect great things from Alzy again here in the Mega Cup. Last year, he managed to pick up an astonishing two title shots in the Mega Cup.
Wayne Miller: Yes, and those were the SCW Alternative Championship and the SCW World Heavyweight Championship. Both of them at Spring Meltdown, and a lot of people thought he would be leaving with one, if not both, championships. Emily Desmond, his partner, managed to hold him off and retain her championship, as did Paige Lewis.
Alzy circled the ring as his music died down.
Allie Queen: And here comes the Masked Avenger!
Anne Carpenter: And his opponent, from Parts Unknown, the Masked Avenger!
The intro to Sucker Punch by Korn blasts over air waves as The Masked Avenger comes out on stage and then taunts the fans. They boo the Avenger as the being walks down to the ring and then rolls into the ring and runs over to the ropes and then taunts the crowd on the ropes then The Avenger jumps down from the ropes and looks across the ring at his opponent. As the bell rang, the fans cheered.
Allie Queen: It’s Mega Cup time!
Wayne Miller: Hell yeah!
Alzy and Avenger met in the center of the ring. Alzy offered a handshake, but Avenger knocked his hand away and smacked him across the face.
Allie Queen: Oh, that’s a bold move!
Wayne Miller: And disrespectful…I like it.
Alzy responded by shoving Avenger and the pair began brawling. Alzy threw lefts and rights like a machine and it was all Avenger could do to defend himself. Then, Avenger kicked Alzy and made him stumble. With Alzy losing his footing, Avenger took him to the ropes with an Irish Whip. Alzy rebounded and floored Avenger with a Clothesline.
Allie Queen: Wow, lots of back and forth already.
Wayne Miller: Nice Clothesline there by Alzy. And you know, he has to be very motivated to win here, and replicate his success from last year. Could you imagine?!
Both men were on their feet again and Alzy whipped Avenger away, held on, and yanked him back. Alzy sent Avenger up and over with a Belly to Belly Suplex. Avenger groaned and rolled to his feet as fans cheered. Alzy went for a kick, but Avenger blocked up and shoved him backwards. Avenger got to his feet and Alzy took him down with a Shoulder Block.
Allie Queen: You know, after this, we’ve got two more matches!
Wayne Miller: Yeah, and I’m sure they’ll be working hard to follow this as these two get going.
Alzy picked Avenger up and drove a knee into his midsection. Alzy then planted Avenger with a DDT. Alzy got to his feet and dragged Avenger towards the corner. Climbing the turnbuckle, Alzy lined Avenger up.
Allie Queen: Alzy going to the top rope, and will show us how he earned his numerous nicknames!
Wayne Miller: High rent district!
Alzy launched himself, going for a knee drop. Avenger rolled out of the way at the last second and Alzy crashed into the mat. Avenger got to his feet and picked Alzy up, locking him into a Sleeper. Alzy began struggling, and after a few he managed to power out of it. Avenger charged at him, but Alzy kicked him in the gut.
Allie Queen: Alzy is one of SCW’s foremost submission experts! Why did Avenger think that would work?
Wayne Miller: I don’t know, but Alzy is looking to drive this baby home, right damn now! There goes the Whiplash!!!
With a double underhook, Alzy drove Avenger into his knee. Alzy then hooked Avengers leg and the referee began counting.
1…..2….3!!
Allie Queen: That’s it! It’s over!
Wayne Miller: Alzy Hawkshaw is going to SCW Survival in the Mega Cup!!!
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, here is your winner, and moving on to the final match of the SCW Mega Cup, Alzy Hawkshaw!
WINNER: ALZY HAWKSHAW
Terel Walker was walking briskly, talking on his phone. The owner of the SCW was flanked by his security. Someone ran up and shoved a microphone in his face.
Reporter: Mr. Walker, do you have any updated information on Paige Lewis?
Mr. Walker: Please, not now!
Reporter: Please, sir! We know you’ve been working with federal agencies, have they-
Mr: Walker: Fine!!! I can tell you this, and nothing more. I do not know where Paige Lewis is. However, and this has been confirmed by the NSA and MI6…Paige Lewis has been recovered, alive. Last I heard, her rescue team had successfully extracted her and were en route to a waiting C5 Galaxy. I do not know if they made it, or where they were going after that. I can assure you, that is –
Gun fire was heard and the camera fell to the ground.
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is scheduled for one fall, and it is a first round match for the second annual SCW Mega Cup Series!! Introducing first, from San Diego, California, weighing in at 180lbs, she is The Wrath of the Desert…FURY!!!
The intro to “Zombie” hits as the fans stand in anticipation. A pyro shoots up from the entrance ramp as Vero walks out to the ramp with a scowl on her face. She begins her slow descent down the ramp with her still not acknowledging the crowd nor making any contact. Once she reaches the end of the entrance ramp, she looks at the crowd around her, surveying her surroundings before running towards the ring and sliding under the ropes.
She heads straight for the upper left turnbuckle and climbs it surveying the crowd without any taunt, like an animal stalking their prey. She then heads towards the opposite turnbuckle and does the same. She descends the top right turnbuckle and does stretches using the ropes as she waits for the bell to ring or for her opponent to arrive.
Allie Queen: Fury has had a rough start here in SCW, but tonight, that could change!
Wayne Miller: A win here could set her up for amazing things here in SCW. Last year, this Mega Cup series produced some amazing matches at Spring Meltdown, and I expect the same thing to happen here.
Anne Carpenter: And her opponent, hailing from Ancient Egypt…Princess Kiya!!!
The arena plunged into darkness, with only several spotlights providing a dim illumination. We Can Be Saved by Jeff Beal began playing over the PA system. Fog pumped into the arena as a hush dropped over the crowd. After a moment, she walked out onto the stage.
Allie Queen: We’ve only recently learned this woman’s name, and now, we will see her in action for the first time.
Wayne Miller: We know she is Paige Lewis’ mentor, but can she work is the question. Whoever wins here moves on to the final round of the Mega Cup Series.
Princess Kiya began making her way to the ring, walking slowly. As she reached the ring, she pulled herself up onto the apron. Slowly, the woman climbed into the ring and stood in a corner.
Allie Queen: We don’t have any official stats on her, but I’d say she about 6 foot tall, maybe 175 in weight.
Wayne Miller: Sounds about right to me. But can she wrestle!?
The bell rang and the two women met in the center of the ring. Fury threw the first punch. It landed perfectly on Princess Kiya’s face. Fury recoiled in pain, grasping her fist. Princess Kiya moved in and shoved a fist into Fury’s midsection. Fury dropped to one knee, gasping for air.
Allie Queen: What the hell!
Wayne Miller: She just brought Fury to her knees with one hit!!!
Princess Kiya grabbed Fury by the hair, and yanked her to her feet. The raggedy woman shoved Fury’s head between her legs and then set her up for a Powerbomb, driving her into the mat. Princess Kiya held onto Fury and then picked her up again and transitioned into a Fireman’s Carry. Fury was then driven into the mat again with a Fireman’s Carry Sidewalk Slam.
Allie Queen: You were asking if she can wrestle! Clearly, she can, and she’s got some impressive strength!
Wayne Miller: I am in awe! She’s going for the pin!!!
Princess Kiya covered Fury and the referee dropped to his knees to count.
1…..2….3!!
The arena erupted as the bell rang and Princess Kiya spun to her feet. The referee raised her hand in victory as We Can Be Saved by Jeff Beal began playing.
Allie Queen: My god…no wonder Paige Lewis is so unstoppable! This is her mentor!
Wayne Miller: I’ve never seen anything like that before! We KNOW Fury is as tough as they come, but this woman just walked in here and treated her like a rank rookie! What the hell is going on?!
Allie Queen: Fury literally got no offense in! Princess Kiya literally put down a legend in minutes, without taking any offense!
Wayne Miller: I shudder to think what this means for the future of SCW if this woman stays on the active roster.
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of this match, and moving on to the final match of the SCW Mega Cup Series…PRINCESS KIYA!!!
WINNER: PRINCESS KIYA
Backstage, the garage door is opening, and from outside, the sound of an approaching vehicle is heard. Then, with a roar, a two tone light blue to black Mazda RX8 drifted sideways into the garage. Straightening out, the car sped towards the cameraman, and arched into a tight donut around him as the camera turned to keep up. This kept going for several loops before the driver sped off elsewhere in the garage.
Allie Queen: What the hell was that about?!
Wayne Miller: I don’t know, but I swear I’ve seen that car before! I wonder…
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, the following non-title, champion versus champion match is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, from Shangai, she is the NEW SCW International Heavyweight Champion…Larissa!!!
As the Chinese National Anthem began playing, Larissa came out on stage and stepped onto a pedestal, wearing the SCW International Heavyweight Championship around her waist. It began rotating slowly while she held her hands up in the air. After a few revolutions, it slowed to a stop and Larissa stepped off and began making her way to the ring. Coming down the ramp, she removed a compact mirror and began admiring herself. After climbing into the ring, Larissa put the mirror away and stood in the corner.
Anne Carpenter: And her opponent she is the SCW Alternative champion. Weighing in at one hundred, ninety five pounds from New York City, New York…..she is Emily Desmond!
Lights go out as I’m Just A Girl by No Doubt begins to play. Also smoke fills the ramp, lit by red and green lights. Emily Desmond appears, carrying the SCW Alternative Championship in one hand, her dark hair pulled back in a loose ponytail and dressed with tights that are a mix of green and purple on black, a shirt that is either solid green or purple or green, and a black leather coat.
Allie Queen: Emily Desmond is a record setting Alternative Champion, having surpassed both Priest and Jessica Tendonin, and has even surpassed Jessica in total days as champion!
Wayne Miller: A very impressive accolade for this young lady. But we both know that one day, perhaps soon, she’s going to want the big one.
Allie Queen: If she manages to fend off Paige Lewis, she just might get her chance!
Wayne Miller: Alzy Hawkshaw, Emily Desmond’s tag team partner, earlier tonight qualified for the final match of the SCW Mega Cup, and we both now what happened last year! He wound up facing Emily AND Paige!
The bell rang as both belts were passed out of the ring. Immediately, both women charged at each other. Emily, the larger of the two, tackled Larissa to the mat and began laying into her. The crowd roared with excitement as the beatdown continued even as the referee began counting, threatening to disqualify Emily. Finally, Emily backed off and Larissa rolled to her feet, angry.
Wayne Miller: Think Emily is in a mood to get to the action, fast!
Allie Queen: Emily Desmond is one of the most dangerous people in SCW, and for good reason! Larissa had better hope she can back up all the trash she talked before this!
Larissa charged at Emily, but Emily sidestepped her, and Larissa rebounded off the ropes into a Northern Lights Suplex. Emily got to her feet quickly and began stomping away on Larissa. Larissa grabbed the ropes, forcing the referee to make Emily stop her attack. As Larissa got up, Emily began yelling something at her.Larissa charged at her, and the referee got caught in the crosshairs. All three of them tumbled out of the ring.
Wayne Miller: Well damn, I guess Larissa is with the action, too!
Allie Queen: Larissa to her feet first!
Larissa grabbed Emily by the hair and pulled her to her feet. The pair traded words before Larissa drove Emily face first into the ringpost, busting her open. The crowd popped, having not expected either woman to get any color in this match.
Wayne Miller: Holy shit! The new International Champ means business!!!
Allie Queen: I like this energy!
Dazed, Emily couldn’t defend against the myriad of attacks from Larissa now. Larissa whipped Emily into the barricade and drove her knee into her back. Emily groan in pain. Looking towards the referee, Larissa saw he was still out of it. Larissa whipped Emily towards the ring and rolled her into it. When Larissa joined Emily, Emily drove her into the mat with an STO. The crowd roared as the bloodied champion got to her feet and turned her back to Larissa.
Wayne Miller: Mr. Walker made a good call saving this for the main event! This is even more exciting than when Princess Kiya basically brutalized Fury moments ago!
Allie Queen: I’m still in shock from that match, and now these two are starting world war 3!!
Emily jumped in the air, and did a standing moonsault, but Larissa rolled out of the way. Back on her feet, Larissa stomped Emily’s face into the mat repeatedly. Emily stopped moving, having been knocked out. Larissa dropped to her knees and rolled Emily over, pinning her. But the referee was still out!
Wayne Miller: She’s gonna need a referee if she wants to win this match!
Allie Queen: And there he is! He’s struggling back into the ring!
Larissa got to her feet and dashed across the ring, dragging the referee into the ring and pointing behind her. When she turned around, Emily came flying through the air, taking her down. Out of nowhere, Emily had an Armbar locked in.
Wayne Miller: That is! It’s a fucking wrap!!!
Allie Queen: If Larissa doesn’t tap, her arm is gonna break, just like she broke Jessica’s arm!
Larissa tried to fight it, but after almost a minute, she gave in and began tapping. The referee signaled for the bell.
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, here is your winner by submission, the SCW Alternative Champion, Emily Desmond!!!
WINNER: EMILY DESMOND
Wayne Miller: For a minute, Larissa was holding her own against Emily, but that damn Armbar will stop anyone in their tracks!!
Allie Queen: And Emily making a quick exit to get medical attention.
Indeed, Emily had grabbed her belt and left. Larissa got to her feet and demanded a mic.
Larissa: Emily Desmond. I liked that. You talked all that crap to me, and you barely escaped! But dammit, I will get some respect in this company! I am the SCW International Heavyweight Champion! I beat Jessica freaking Tendonin to win this belt! I’m the number one contender for the SCW World Heavyweight Championship! I am unstoppable! This loss here will not matter soon. I am-
Party Monster by The Weeknd began playing through the arena audio system as the crowd exploded.
“I’m Good, I’m Good, I’m Great!”
After a few seconds, Jessica Tendonin walked out onto the stage, her left arm in a cast. She stood there for a moment,looking around the arena. Jessica then began walking down the ramp slowly as the fans roared, having not expected her. In the ring, Larissa was in shock.
Wayne Miller: THE DRAGON HAS ARRIVED!!!
Allie Queen: Would you calm the hell down?!
Walking up the steps into the ring, Jessica slowly climbing between the ropes. Then, she walked right up to Larissa and yanked the mic out of her hand as her music faded.
Jessica: First of all, shut the fuck up you little imp! You broke my goddamn arm!
Someone tossed Larissa a new mic.
Larissa: and what are you going to do about it, cripple?
Jessica: Even with one arm, I will still beat your ass right here, and right now. Say the word and I will fuck you up so bad that they call it a hate crime. I’ll hate crime your ass with no hesitation! Give me a reason.
As Larissa raised her mic to say something, the PA system came to life, and the arena shook as the fans roared to life. Spotlight by Hot Tag Media Works began playing.
“And still…it’s all…about…me!”
After a few seconds, the SCW World Heavyweight Champion walked out onto the stage, the belt around her waist. She was bruised, and was limping as she began making her way to the ring.
Wayne Miller: Oh my god, this thing is about to blow like a powder keg! These three women absolutely can’t stand one another!
Allie Queen: I got a funny feeling about all of this…
Paige Lewis climbed into the ring after grabbing a mic offered to her. She signalled for her music to be cut.
Paige: So let me get this straight, you disrespect Jessica by breaking her arm, and now, you think you’re going to run your mouth to her? Not on my watch. You see, I know you’re my next challenger, and I’m not worried about you. Let me tell you how Survival is going to go, Larissa. First, Jessica is going to stomp you out, and retake her championship. Then, as you crawl your scrawny ass to the ring to face me, I’m going to teach you why I am the unstoppable force of the SCW. I have lost one match in my entire career, and it is to this woman right here. How dare you speak to her in this manner. Get on your knees and apologize.
The crowd buzzed with excitement at this exchange. Larissa seemed shocked as well, looking back and forth between the two women. Larissa did not get on her knees. Paige snapped.
Paige: I SAID GET ON YOUR FUCKING KNEES! I WILL NOT ASK YOU AGAIN! MY ARM ISN’T BROKEN, YOU SCRAWNY LITTLE RUNT, AND I WILL STOMP YOU INTO A PUDDLE OF BLOOD!!
Allie Queen: I don’t know what’s going on here, but this is surreal. I’ve never seen Paige speak like this. And are her and Jessica suddenly best friends? Why is she going so hard for Jessica?
Wayne Miller: That car from earlier is still bothering me. It’s not Jessica’s style, and Paige drives a Mustang.
Larissa, realizing Paige meant business, began kneeling. Then, Mustang Nismo hit the PA system and all hell broke loose.
Wayne Miller: OH MY GOD!!! I KNEW IT!!! I GODDAMN KNEW IT!!!
Allie Queen: IS THIS REAL LIFE!!??
The first SCW Hall of Famer, and the first SCW Champion calmly walked out onto the stage. She looked around the arena, smiling as the fans all cheered. Making her way to the ring, she high fived several fans. Climbing into the ring, she quickly stood between Larissa and the other two women. She took the microphone from Larissa while her music faded and spoke.
Neela Shizeguma: Jessica. Paige. Back up.
Neither Jessica nor Paige moved. Neela smiled while nodding.
Neela Shizeguma: Very well. Larissa, get up, you are not a dog.
Larissa stood and she and Neela backed up. Neela pointed at the belt around Paige’s waist.
Neela Shizeguma: That’s cute. I had the first one.
Paige: You did not, actually. I know who you are. Only Jessica and I have held this belt. That championship you held is not related to this. You were the SCW Champion…but I’m the SCW World Heavyweight Champion.
Neela Shizeguma: Do not ever address me like that again. Second, I said I had the first one, meaning the first championship. Now shut up. As I’m sure all of you here in the arena and at home are wondering why I’m here, let me get to it. As we learned earlier tonight, someone took a shot at Mr. Walker. We do not know if he was hit or not. He has not been seen since that TMZ video, nor has he checked into any emergency rooms. As such, the SCW Board of Directors felt the need to put someone in charge until Mr. Walker returned.
They wanted someone who knew SCW inside and out. Someone who could hold things together. Someone who would have the respect of the locker room and the fans alike. Someone…like me. So, I got the call and was on the next flight out. Red-eye to LAX, and then, I picked up my car, and high tailed it all the way here. So…from this moment forward, until either the SCW Board of Directors or Mr. Walker decide otherwise…I am the new General Manager of SCW.
Wayne Miller: WHAT!? SCW Hall of Famer Neela Shizeguma has returned to be the new General Manager!
Allie Queen: I shudder to think what might have happened to Larissa had Neela not came out here when she did.
Neela Shizeguma: We only have a few minutes left, so let me address something. Larissa you WILL defend your championship at Survival. Jessica, if you would like to have your rematch at that time, then next Overdrive, I will have a waiver available for you to sign. Larissa, as Mr. Walker promised, you will also be challenging for the SCW World Heavyweight Championship. Paige, I’m going to let you pick the match type. Now, if you all don’t might, that’s all our time.
SCW cameras are outside as a limo pulls up. The door opens and Chris Desmond steps out, dressed in a dark grey suit, light grey silk shirt, hair pulled back, and looking calm and at ease. He steps aside and holds the door open. First Alzy Hawkshaw, dressed in light blue shirt and dark pants, looking extremely serious, followed by Sean Foster, dressed in jeans and nice dark blue shirt and he holds out a hand. A hand comes out and Emily Desmond steps out, lowers her sunglasses looking up at the stadium, then looks at Sean and nods. Sean sees the camera and whistles. Magically a mic appears, apparently out of thin air, and Sean holds it for Emily. She removes her sunglasses, carefully holding them, but she has a look of determination. Given she’s in two very intense matches this evening it’s understandable, but that’s not all that’s on her mind, and she looks at Sean, who moves to stand between her and Alzy, not because they are mad at each other, but instead they both have a few things on their minds.
Emily: You know tonight I have a chance to walk into the arena, in a match I picked, and make history by walking out the Alternative champion. Nearly 500 days, and I’ve taken on some of the best that have come through SCW and tonight is no different. I had the chance last show to take on Johnathan Mills in a tag match so with that knowledge and the videos I have found online and I’m ready for him but before I do that we will step in the ring with DEA and try to capture something that seems to keep slipping through our fingers. But DEA you sure had a lot to say a few days ago and you know, it’s taken us both time to cool off a bit so that you understand what we’re going to say.
Alzy: See you guys……must be living in a time warp because you made a great deal of accusations, said that WE said a lot of things and after we watched what we said, you had us both scratching our heads, wondering if the ….recreational side of your life was killing a few too many brain cells. First let’s start off with the fact Brian can’t seem to pronounce my name. It’s not Azly….its Alzy. Just like it sounds, it’s not that foreign of a name unless you suddenly forgot how to speak….and sound like you’re from this planet. So BriAN get it right. You start off talking about how I lost this match or that but um…..well that has what to do with the our tag match? I’m curious because I’m just not sure what the hell your malfunction is.
Emily: As for us bringing up the “freebird” rule you said you didn’t say a word about it. Did I say YOU said it? Ask dear old Jessica about it, she brought it up the last time when we faced her and Johnathan, talking about we seem to think we were the only ones who could use it and it’s how we are the only ones who can use it yada yada yada. Well as we said, we never claimed that. I didn’t know I had to get a presidential proclamation saying Hellfire of Chris and Emily Desmond broke up and Hellfire is now Emily Desmond and Alzy Hawkshaw. Next time I’ll make sure it’s a nice clear day and have a plane sky write it. I didn’t know we needed your f…..
Chris clears his throat as he’s sure Mr. Walker doesn’t want to test whether or not FCC rules apply when its live from London. Emily takes a deep breath but Alzy knows where she’s going with this.
Alzy: I didn’t know I needed the almighty word of Brian Kennedy to say “oh sure, you guys want to switch things up, let Chris step out of the ring on a more permanent basis and we’re going to team. I didn’t know that Jessica Tendonin needed to sign the contract.
Emily: She wasn’t the stupid one talking.
Alzy: You’d think she’d get a smarter partner.
Emily: Hell you didn’t ask us if we approved of Requiem taking time off and you chose a new member. Hell at least our team kept the same name. Your team name? Isn’t even the same! Empire won the tag titles…..and yet DEA is defending them. So just because your dumb ass is whining about what you said, you know Brian you seem to be forgetting you’re in a TEAM. This isn’t DEA is Brian Kennedy. DEA has TWO people in it. Put down the weed for a minute and focus dude. Let the cobwebs clear out. Hell we even wished Requiem the best of luck, hope it all works out, all that stuff. And guess what?
Alzy: We meant it! Requiem is a hell of a wrestler, and an upstanding guy. We get it, even in our business sometimes life takes a huge precedence over getting in that ring. We want things to go well and life turns out good for him and let him take all the time he needs. Somehow you assholes…..
Emily: Jessica isn’t the asshole.
Alzy: Very good point. My apologies Jessica, at least for the moment. Kennedy you are an asshole, and if you would have tried to pay attention you would have got that pretty clear. Kennedy, we had family who nearly had to promise their first born son, part water like it was the Red Sea, and more to get a chance for them to get a rematch, yes a bit on their terms. Their terms were that the rightful team defended. But Cam and Lynn didn’t say “Hey um….you know Cam and Brian were Feral Destruction and we’re now the Flying Burrito Brothers.”
Chris, who has been standing just behind Emily’s left shoulder actually laughs, and hopefully it’s not lost on all of SCW’s fans. Alzy calmly waits for Chris to regain his usual composure, then continues.
Alzy: I think you get my drift real clear. You shouldn’t have been allowed to blatantly get a new partner, but whatever. Tonight we’ll take you on, we’re not afraid of the match you have set up. Barefoot? Ok. Ladder? Was that supposed to be a challenge? Carpet tacks on the ladder? Ok that is a bit of….well more endurance of pain than anything. Thumb tacks? Again, those are supposed to be a challenge? And finally rubbing alcohol. Ok like the carpet tacks going to sting a bit. But for me? Don’t you realize that I live for shit like this? And we’ve been toughening up the feet as they’ll take some punishment.
Emily: Shall we talk about how “oh we’re training three days a week.” Was that supposed to be impressive? Because…..I’m not impressed. I would think that every DAY would have been better. I’ve always thought of Jessica as a top athlete, or is it that you couldn’t be bothered to go stay in Ohio with her so you could really prepare for this match. But nope, like you’re in some day cooking competition, you do three day weekends. And from what I hear from your inner circle, you’re really not spending as much time as you are trying to make us believe that you train. Really? A couple hours a day? Brian…..you expect that type of thing to help you?
Alzy nudges Emily and she looks at him.
Alzy: Didn’t you just love how he bitched about us mentioning the Ryders and yet he brings up our family?
Emily rolls her eyes, trying to keep stern but the smile that is forming.
Alzy: But then Kennedy, sounds like you’re still suffering from the ass kicking Brian gave you. But then you say you shouldn’t give us another chance, well don’t throw stones in a glass house. Meaning? Paige didn’t have to give you another chance. Think about how you would have one match, one that you’re likely to lose? But nope, dear Paige, the sweetheart she is, said she’d let you try again. We…..
Emily shakes her head no.
Alzy: Ok I’m the one who bet she beats you and leaves you a bloody mess, that is if whatever posse is out to kick your ass doesn’t interfere. Hell if they try, I’ll stop them. Why? Because I want Paige to teach you a lesson dumbass, that’s why. THEN I’ll let those good old boys do what they want.
Emily: Jessica, why didn’t you just let Kennedy keep digging his hole bigger. You know the one that Paige will bury his ass in. But nope, you just couldn’t that and …..it’s sad to see. You say we’re stuck in the past, well isn’t the past relevant? I mean Jessica seriously I looked and I didn’t utter the name FTWO at all. In both what I said to Johnathan and to the two of you. So I don’t get the whole us naming dropping and all that. But …
Alzy snaps his fingers, as if remembering something.
Alzy: I know! It was when we faced Jessica and Johnathan. Remember?
Emily looks at him, like she doesn’t have a clue. But then it dawns on her.
Emily: Oh yes. We were talking about Johnathan being called Firestorm. So we uttered it once in a year and that’s all the time. And it was relevant as hell. WE asked how he could pick that name. Wow. I’m……
Alzy: I know. And wasn’t it someone you faced who commented or asked…..how did it feel knowing that I once held the title? And that was how long ago they did ask? In fact…..
Emily: In fact, look who’s living in the past Kennedy. But Jessica you disappointed me. I would have thought that you would appreciate that I’ve been a champion that you would say that you were proud of. Which btw the way THIS…….I will never disrespect.
Emily holds up the SCW Alternative title and then puts it over her shoulder.
Emily: I have defended it. I have thought of match types I want, I write them down, and I have a list of them still. Hell tonight I face your buddy Johnathan and look what I did. I put weapons IN THE CAGE!! I’m handing him the weapons he needs to beat me! But I don’t plan on losing, and I plan on beating him to a pulp. He dared to cross my path, and I will prove that just because you two got a lucky win against us, he will NOT walk out with MY title. But see Jessica, unlike you, who had the North American title and decided to rename it the International title, I would never think of doing that with this title. I know its lineage, I know how far back it goes, beyond the SCW history if we’re to split hairs here, its FTWO history as well, and there have been some greats. But we’re on the verge of 500 days that I’ve held this title, and I’ve defended it against some of the greats out there, and I’m still standing. I think we could both agree that whoever does take it will be accomplishing a great feat, a feat that your buddy there couldn’t do. So he didn’t beat me, so far he’s been defeated by Paige twice, going on a third time.
Alzy: You guys say we whine, we always talk about FTWO, and …..did I miss anything?
Emily: Nope, not at all. But I’m done talking.
Emily nods at Alzy, slips her sunglasses back on, and heads in as does Alzy. Sean looks after them and looks at Chris, and Sean gulps. Chris steps up to him smiling.
Chris: I think….they’ve said what they needed to. Time for talking is over now, and it’s time to get in that ring and get some wins. Tonight will be a blood one, that’s for sure. Look at what is happening tonight. Jessica and Rich are in the tame matches tonight and that’s saying something. I hope the emergency rooms in England are up to par, I don’t want my stars catching some infection. And they’re right….Alzy and Emily. Time for talk is done, it’s time for some action.

The SCW Commentary Team is shown now, Allie Queen and Wayne Miller.
Allie: Welcome to TLC, live from London!
Wayne: The card is absolutely insane tonight, but let’s get right into it!
Anne Carpenter: The following contest is for the SCW World Tag Team Championship! First from New York, accompanied by Chris Desmond, weighing at 415 pounds, the challengers, SCW Alternative champion Emily Desmond and Alzy Hawkshaw…..Hellfire!
Lights go out as “King Nothing” by Metallic comes up. Lights slowly come up at 30 seconds to show Alzy on one side, and Emily on the other, with Chris Desmond, dressed impeccably in a dark blue suit. Alzy and Emily are both wearing long black tights with flames of different shades of green and purple on them. Emily wears a solid green shirt and they both have black trench coats.
Alzy wears his hair down, like he normally does when wrestling, where Emily has hers in a ponytail. At 40 seconds they start making their way to the ring, ignoring the boos from the fans. As they reach the ring the circle round it once going different sides. If their opponents aren’t in the ring, at 1:14 they climb in. If their opponents are in the ring, they remove their jackets outside the ring and stare down their opponents before suddenly charging the ring at 1:40.
Allie Queen:This match, as we all know, was proposed by the champions themselves, and to be honest, I have to wonder if it was a smart decision. Brian Kennedy is taking on Paige Lewis tonight, in the main event for the SCW World Heavyweight Championship, and Jessica will be defending the SCW International Championship against newcomer Larissa.
Wayne Miller: Are you kidding? They know what they are doing! DEA is leaving with 3 championships tonight. I know Paige has been unstoppable so far, but I think tonight could be the night Brian Kennedy finally gets back on top of SCW!
Emily and Alzy slide into the ring. Looking around, the pair shook their head at the nonsense of a match they were being forced to take part in.
Allie Queen: And let’s not forget these insane stipulations!
Wayne Miller: There’s like five gallons on rubbing alcohol that is about to be just dumped everywhere!
Anne Carpenter: And their opponents, being accompanied to the ring by Lucius Tendonin, from Ohio, Brian Kennedy and the SCW International Heavyweight Champion, Jessica Tendonin, the SCW World Tag Team Champions…DEA!!!
The Red by Chevelle hit the PA system and a few seconds later, three members of the DEA walked out onto the stage. Brian Kennedy carried his half of the SCW World Tag Team Championship in his right hand. Jessica Tendonin wore both the SCW World Tag Team Championship and the SCW International Heavyweight Championship around her waist.
Allie Queen: A lot of people think tonight is Hellfire’s night, but others don’t think they can overcome the combination of a highly motivated Brian Kennedy and Jessica Tendonin.
Wayne Miller: Hell, if it was Hellfire versus Jessica in a handicap match, I couldn’t even give one side the advantage.
Lucius stayed on stage while Brian and Jessica began making their way to the ring. Jessica went up the steps first, and then held the ropes open for her partner, who then did the same. After posing for a moment, the four belts were handed to the referee, Jessica’s International title, Emily’s Alternative title, and the tag team titles. The referee then instructed both teams to remove their boots. As this was done, the alcohol was opened and dumped around the ring and in it.
Allie Queen: I expect they will regret this very soon.
Wayne Miller: I’d be surprised if this match doesn’t lead to some infections.
As everything was prepared, the two teams glared at each other. With the belts being raised above the ring, the match was ready to start. The bell rang and the two teams collided. Alzy and Brian met in the center and traded punches. Jessica took Emily down with a Lariat. Emily quickly got to her feet and grabbed Jessica by the hair, ramming her face first into the turnbuckle. Emily stepped on some thumbtacks and grunted in pain.
Allie Queen: That is already going to hurt, but when she steps in some of the alcohol? It’s gonna burn!
Wayne Miller: Psychological warfare. Jessica and Brian knew what they were doing when they set this match up.
Alzy took Brian down with a body slam, into a pile of thumbtacks. Brian groaned in pain as he was then dragged through a puddle of alcohol. Emily was on the verge of kicking a hole in Jessica’s midsection, having pulled her out of the corner. Jessica backed away and stepped on some thumbtacks. Emily charged at her, but Jessica threw a right hook, which Emily only JUST managed to avoid.
Allie Queen: Good reflexes there by Emily, dodging that hook.
Wayne Miller: Yeah, we know Jessica’s a pretty skilled boxer.
Brian was back on his feet and took a few punches to the body from Alzy before whipping the smaller man into the ropes. On the return trip, Alzy was picked up and driven into the mat with a huge Spinebuster. The thumbtacks under him broke his fall. Brian began stomping on Alzy, who grabbed a carpet strip, scrapping it on Brian’s leg. Brian staggered back, and Alzy got to his feet.
Allie Queen: So far this match is woman on woman and man on man, but I’m sure it won’t stay that way.
Wayne Miller: I have heard a rumor that Jessica has been looking to get Emily Desmond in some one on one action, to really get a closer look at who many are calling the future of the Alternative Division. This is her second time being in the ring with current champion, and still a tag team match.
Allie Queen: Yes, but we saw what happened then; Jessica and Johnathan, who hadn’t teamed together in years, came in and defeated Hellfire.
Wayne Miller: Now that I think about it…have Jessica and Brian actually teamed together before?
Jessica had Emily against the ropes, throwing punches into her body with impressive speed. Emily guarded her chin well and Jessica couldn’t find an opening. Unable to strike her from the sides, Jessica went for an uppercut, but Emily quickly lifted her chin out of the way. Jessica curved a left hook and caught Emily’s chin. Emily staggered back, very obviously dazed, but the lights were still on.
Allie Queen: Oh my god! How is she still standing! Even though Jessica is right handed, that left hook looked devastating.
Wayne Miller: I’ve gotta agree, although Jessica is ambidextrous, she clearly favors her right. Oh, there she goes again!
Jessica began firing away on Emily’s midsection again. Emily kept her guard up, but Jessica easily broke through it with a huge right that sent Emily to the mat. With Emily down, Jessica turned to Alzy, who had gained the advantage over Brian and was kicking him in the back. Jessica crouched, waiting for Alzy to turn around. The crowd popped as he did and Jessica ran across the ring. Alzy shoved Brian in front him, and it was too late for Jessica to stop.
Allie Queen: Not her own partner!!!
Brian hit the deck in the blink of an eye, and Jessica was jumping into the air, and managed to connect with the Spear. Alzy was standing near the ropes and nearly got cut in half as he and Jessica crashed to the outside.
Allie Queen: Holy crap!
Wayne Miller: THAT JUST HAPPENED!!!
The crowd roared with approval as Brian got to his feet and looked to his partner, who had landed in a pile of unfortunately placed thumb tacks, that were in a puddle of alcohol. Across the ring, Emily was stirring from the assault by Jessica, and Brian charged at her, avoiding the thumb tacks in his path. Emily countered with a Drop Toe Hold that sent Brian face first into a few carpet strips. Brian groaned in pain but Emily kept the assault up with an Elbow drop that landed on the back of his neck.
Allie Queen: This match is already insane, and it has only been going for a few minutes!
Wayne Miller: There is a lot of frustration both teams want to work out, and I’d say they are making pretty good time!
Outside the ring, Alzy and Jessica were trading punches. Alzy not only knew to protect his face, but he also had a reach similar to, if not better than, Jessica’s, and could force her in too close if she wanted a good strike. Alzy countered a Knee Strike and caught Jessica square on the chin with a right. Jessica reeled back, but when Alzy went in for the kill shot, Jessica weaved. Alzy hit her chin again, this time with his left. Jessica staggered backwards against the barricade.
Allie Queen: I didn’t know Alzy could box! He’s giving Jessica a run for her money!
Wayne Miller: Reach and technique. Jessica had reach on Emily, but not so much on Alzy. She’s taken two direct hits on her chin, though, and stayed vertical. I’m impressed.
Jessica was on the defensive as Alzy moved in and began smashing away at her midsection. Several times, he aimed for her face, but Jessica’s guard was like iron. Jessica ventured for a right of her own, but Alzy was already swinging a left hook. For the third time, Alzy hit her chin. Jessica dropped to her knees, dazed. Alzy punted her head, knocking her out.
Allie Queen: Jessica’s out! Alzy has just literally gone hand to hand with Jessica and came out on top!
Wayne Miller: Look how much it took, though!
Alzy slid into the ring and helped Emily plant Brian into a pile of thumbtacks. Emily rolled out of the ring and grabbed a ladder, sliding it into the ring. As she turned to pick up a bag of thumbtacks, she looked into the crowd, and stopped. It was Jessica. But Jessica was still knocked out 10 feet away from her where Alzy had put her down!
Allie Queen: Oh, I think Emily has just met one of Jessica’s doppelgangers!
Wayne Miller: Yeah, but which one!? We know there are three of them! I suppose we could rule out Ashley, as she’s barely able to walk.
As Emily looked back and forth between the two women, Brian nailed Alzy with the War Cry. Emily slid back into the ring, but was met with a huge Clothesline. She got back to her feet quickly, but Brian took her down again. Jessica slid into the ring as Emily got up dodged a third Clothesline. Jessica turned Emily around and took her down with Side Kick. Alzy was on his feet, and Jessica ducked under him and had him set up for the F5.
Allie Queen: Oh, This has been back and forth, but I think DEA has taken control yet again!
Wayne Miller: Wait, what is she doing?
Jessica hadn’t driven Alzy into the mat yet. Instead, she was signalling something to Brian. Her partner picked up Emily as Jessica crouched, still holding Alzy on her shoulders. Brian tossed Emily on top of Alzy.
Allie Queen: No, she can’t! That’s over 400 pounds!
Wayne Miller: Watch her!
Jessica pushed herself into a standing position and took several steps before saying something to Brian. Brian went for the ladder. Jessica slowly twisted, winding the motion up, before turning the other way quickly, and drilling Alzy and Emily into the mat.
Allie Queen: HOW!!!???
Wayne Miller: Ladies and Gentlemen, the Double T5!!!
Alzy caught most of it, and landed on thumbtacks. By the time Brian was climbing the ladder, Emily was back on her feet. Jessica was standing at the foot of the ladder, like a sentry, daring Emily or her partner to get past her. Emily charged at Jessica, but the Dragon caught her by the throat. The crowd popped at Jessica took Emily into the air and then slammed her to the mat. As Jessica got up, Alzy drove a knee into her back, and took her down with a Reverse DDT.
Allie Queen: Alzy has Jessica down, but Brian has one belt in hand already! He needs to remove both to win the match! This might be over!
Wayne Miller: Alzy isn’t even paying attention to Brian!
Jessica was back on her feet. Alzy threw a left that she parried before moving in with a right. Alzy parried the right from Jessica. The pair began boxing again. Jessica wasn’t protecting her chin. Alzy went for a massive left, and it landed just as the bell rang. Jessica collapsed to the mat, smiling.
Allie Queen: Alzy’s just knocked Jessica out again in this match, but Brian has just removed the second belt! This match is over!
Wayne Miller: My god! I told you, I freaking said it, DEA came in with a plan!
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, the winners of this match, representing the Dragon Empire Agents, and STILL the SCW World Tag Team Champions, Brian Kennedy and Jessica Tendonin!
Atop the ladder, Brian held both belts up. Emily and Alzy angrily rolled out of the ring. By the time Brian descended the ladder, Jessica was on one knee and an EMT was checking on her. The referee handed her the International Heavyweight Championship as she stood. She was a bit dizzy on her feet, but she held herself up.
Allie Queen: This match was not nearly as brutal as I thought it would be.
Wayne Miller: I agree. Wait, what’s that?
Hellfire had turned around on the ramp and were looking at DEA in the ring. Jessica was tapping her head, grinning.
Allie Queen: What is that supposed to mean?
Wayne Miller: I think we know what Jessica said to Brian a few minutes ago. She must have told him to get the belts no matter what, and that she’d hold them off! And dammit, she did it!
Jessica tapped the side of her jaw and leaned over the ropes as someone handed her a microphone.
Jessica Tendonin: It was bait! Did you really think you could knock me out twice!? This match? This was a courtesy. You were not owed it, in any way, shape, or form. Next time…you’re going to have to earn it! Now get the fuck out of my sight!
Hellfire looked like they’d heard enough and they started making their way back toward the ring. And then, they stopped. The ramp in front of them was suddenly filled by a dozen or so women. At the head of the group was the tall Swedish blonde, Candice Karicia Kingston. On her left and right were Jessica Wallace and Izzy Lopez, Jessica’s cousins, who looked just like their leader. In the ring, Jessica had her arms crossed, looking amused. Brian looked impressed.
Allie Queen: I think the wise thing to do here is to leave, for Hellfire. There is no way they are making it through Kingston alone, let alone that entire group, not after this insane match!
Wayne Miller: Yeah, that’s Jessica’s personal guard. Jessica is running her mouth, and could probably back it up, even now, but she’s got another match tonight! She needs to save it for Larissa!
Emily and Alzy looked at each other and back at Candice before retreating. The members of the Order turned to the ring and bowed before climbing back into the crowd and vanishing.
WINNERS: DEA
STILL SCW WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS
Curtis is seen backstage where he is standing in front of a camera with a mic in his hand.
Curtis: You know, I have been standing here thinking. Why don’t I assert myself more? Why am I just focusing on The DEA when there are other wrestlers in this company that just needs to learn their place when it comes to me and my guys.
He pauses for a moment.
Curtis:Rich Anderson I am talking about none other than you. You are just like Brian in so many ways that it isn’t funny and before your head can get much bigger let me inform you of something. I have talked to the Brass here in SCW and after tonight you’re looking at your next opponent.
He laughs.
Curtis:I’ll let that sink in.
He continues to laugh as the scene fades to black.
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest will be contested as a Table match, and it is for the SCW North American Heavyweight Championship! Introducing first, from Houston, Texas, weighing in at three hundred and twenty eight pounds, he is the challenger…Priest!
Passive by A Perfect Circle hits the PA system. As Priest steps onto the stage, the crowd gives him a mixed reaction. Stopping in the middle of the ramp, Priest glares into the crowd with a sinister smile. As the opening guitar riffs start to kick in, the lights in the arena flicker on and off as flaming pyro’s go off. After a couple seconds, Priest twist his neck to crack his spine and heads down the ramp.
Once he gets to the ring, he removes his black sunglasses and taunts tossing them into the crowd, but doesn’t. He sees a child walks over to him, and acts like he’s going to give it to him. But instead of giving them to the child, he drops them to the floor and stomps on them. The challenger laughs now as he climbs into the ring.
Allie Queen: Priest is making his return to SCW, and Rich Anderson has his hands full with the two time Alternative Champion.
Wayne Miller: This match could be a huge boost for both of them, but at the end of the day, the goal for both should be leaving with the championship. Only way to do that, is put the other man through a table.
Anne Carpenter: And his opponent, from Dallas, Texas, weighing in at one hundred and sixty five pounds, he is the SCW North American Heavyweight Champion…Rich Anderson!
Big Gun by AC/DC hit the PA system and the crowd cheered. A few seconds later, the SCW North American Heavyweight Champion emerged onstage. He wore the belt around his waist, visible under his glowing jacket. As the crowd applauded, he began making his way to the ring, not taking his eyes off of Priest. Priest sneered in the ring.
Allie Queen: And Rich looks like he is ready for action!
Wayne Miller: Priest is twice Rich’s size, and will definitely use that to his advantage, but we can’t count Rich out so easily.
Sliding into the ring, Rich unstrapped the championship and walked right up to Priest, getting in his face. The referee managed to separate them for just long enough to ring the bell.
Allie Queen: And this one starts with a bang!
Wayne Miller: Rich is fired the hell up!
Rich was sending shots into Priest’s midsection left and right without pause. Priest kept his guard up, protecting his face. A moment later, Priest shoved Rich away and then charged at him, going for a Big Boot kick, but Rich caught his foot and countered with a Spinning Wheel Kick, taking the challenger down. The crowd cheered as Rich ran to the ropes, rebounded off and literally threw himself at Priest as he was getting up.
Allie Queen: Rich is taking out all of his frustration from the last several weeks, and I gotta say, I’m loving it!
Wayne Miller: Champion is really throwing himself into this fight!
As the tangle of bodies separated, Priest and Rich both got to their feet. Priest tossed a huge right that stunned Rich.The challenger went for another, but Rich ducked it, and slipped behind Priest, and then took him up and slammed him with a Back Suplex, shocking the fans in attendance.
Allie Queen: RICH ANDERSON MEANS BUSINESS!!!
Wayne Miller: I AM SHOCKED! SCW NORTH AMERICAN HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION IS REALLY TAKING IT TO THE CHALLENGER!
Priest rolled to one knee, blocked and kick, parried a right hand, and ducked a spinkick before getting back to a vertical base. Priest grabbed Rich by the tights and literally tossed him into a corner. Priest then ran into the corner like a freight train, slamming into Rich. The fans cheered as the action continued and Priest whipped Rich into the opposite corner. Priest then charged at Rich again, but Rich ducked out of the corner and onto the apron. Priest stopped himself, but Rich grabbed his head and then jumped off the apron, spiking the challenger over the ropes.
Allie Queen: The fans are completely shocked by how this is playing out, and I can’t say I blame them!
Wayne Miller: I think Rich is ready to introduce a table!
Indeed, Rich was sliding a table into the ring. Priest was on one knee favoring his neck with his back turned. Rich slid into the ring and picked the table up over his head before bringing it crashing down over Priest’s head.
Allie Queen: Oh my god! Priest might have a concussion after that!
Wayne Miller: That is a testament to the rage Rich has been feeling this past few weeks after Priest attacked him!
Priest groaned in pain as Rich picked up the table and leaned it against the turnbuckle. Rich turned to Priest now as the bigger man was getting up. Rich leaned on the ropes and launched himself at Priest for a Shoulder Block, but the challenger shrugged it off and Rich landed on the mat. Priest grabbed him by the hair, pulling him to his feet, and with seemingly no effort, Priest tossed Rich into the table in the corner and shattered it.
Allie Queen: Oh my god, is that it?! Is this match over?!
Wayne Miller: No, the table has to be set up! This ain’t over, but Rich is definitely going to be feeling that!
Rich was still reeling from the attack as Priest yanked him to his feet and then whipped him across the ring into the ropes. As Rich rebounded, Priest caught him up in a huge Spinebuster that almost looked as if it would break the champion in half. Priest got to his feet and began stomping away on the champion, not letting up on the assault.
Allie Queen: We are just minutes into this match, and it already looks as if it could be over at any second.
Wayne Miller: The pace of this match is not what I could have predicted!
Priest backed away and rolled out of the ring, going for a table. As he picked it up, he turned around in time to look up and see Rich flying over the top rope with a running moonsault. The crowd roared at Rich collided with Priest and the pair tumbled to the arena floor. The fans in the front row were leaning over the barricade trying to get a better view.
Allie Queen: Rich is throwing everything he’s got at Priest, including literally his own body.
Wayne Miller: Only thing missing is the kitchen sink!
Rich was first to his feet, but Priest got to one knee and wrapped a huge hand around Rich’s throat as he pulled himself to his feet. With seemingly superhuman strength, the challenger tossed the champion several feet away. The crowd roared at Priest advanced on Rich, who was already on one knee.
Allie Queen: I have to believe Mr. Walker is watching this backstage, keeping a close eye on the returning Priest and how Rich performs in his first defense of this new championship.
Wayne Miller: I think it’s safe to say Priest has awakened something in Rich, and it might not have been a good idea.
Priest was upon Rich now as the champion stood. Rich turned and the pair began trading punches. Priest, with more mass and a better reach, easily busted Rich open. Rich staggered backwards, and Priest began advancing on him again, when out of nowhere, Rich nailed him with a Superkick. The crowd snapped as Priest fell backwards.
Allie Queen: OH MY GOD! RICH HITS THE SUPERKICK!
Wayne Miller: No, that’s the Phack Off, dammit!!
Rich grabbed the nearest table and dragged it over to where Priest was. Taking a few seconds to catch his breath, Rich began setting the table up. When finished, however, his breather had cost him. He turned around and received a huge hand around his throat. Priest thrust Rich into the air, about to end it all.
Allie Queen: This is it! We’re gonna have a new champion!!!
Wayne Miller: No! Oh! It’s over!
Rich countered into a Hurricanrana, and swung priest forward, through the table while he rolled clear of the carnage. The bell rang over the applause as the referee handed the SCW North American Heavyweight Championship to Rich Anderson and raised his arm in victory. Big Gun by AC/DC began playing as the announcement was made.
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, here is your winner, and still the SCW North American Heavyweight Champion…Rich Anderson!
WINNER: RICH ANDERSON
STILL SCW NORTH AMERICAN HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, this match is ….weapons in a cage. First weighing in at one hundred and fifty five pounds he is Johnathan “Firestorm” Mills!
“Storm” by Devin Townsend plays as Johnathan Mills makes his way to the ring. He has a burst of speed as he gets closer to the ring and he slides in, then climbs up the turnbuckle, listening to the crowd. Finally he hops down.
Anne Carpenter: And his opponent she is the SCW Alternative champion. Weighing in at one hundred, ninety five pounds from New York City, New York…..she is Emily Desmond!
Lights go out as song begins to play. Also smoke fills the ramp, lit by red and green lights. Emily Desmond appears, her dark hair pulled back in a loose ponytail and dressed with tights that are a mix of green and purple on black, a shirt that is either solid green or purple or green, and a black leather coat. She seems focus on the ring and crawls in, keeping an eye on Johnathan. The cage door shuts and the referee calls for the bell.
Allie: Now it’s time for a match that has people talking.
Wayne: Many are wondering if Johnathan has what it takes to defeat Emily and win the title.
Allie: She’s held the Alternative title nearly 500 days. That is an incredible feat.
Wayne: Until you take another look at who trained her. Cam had incredible staying power as a champion.
Johnathan takes off his shirt and throws it into the corner as he starts to walk towards Emily as the bell rings with no emotion on his face. Emily immediately goes on the offense by driving forward, aiming a vicious kick to Johnathan’s right knee. Johnathan drops down to one knee and Emily aims another kick at Johnathan, this to his face. But he grabs her leg and uses his rising momentum to trap her. He tries to lift her up but she is able to easily escape. However Johnathan does get hold of her and throws her across the ring with all his power. Immediately after doing so, he follows and with his momentum drives her face first into the cage. Emily slides down but Johnathan stays with her and pulls Emily to her feet and throws her into a turnbuckle with amazing power from him. She hits the corner and rebounds back towards him.
Allie: Johnathan is going on the offense early it seems. That is his true advantage here, he can burst out with amazing speed.
Johnathan attempts a quick spinebuster but as he’s beginning to lift, Emily launches a knee into his groin, breaking his hold on her. Johnathan holds his groin in pain, stunned. She capitalizes on the opportunity, running back and hit the ropes. She comes bounding off and gives Johnathan a vicious dropkick to the temple of Johnathan. The force of the shot moves him from the center of the ring to the ropes on the other side. Jonathan turns, using the ropes to hold himself up momentarily to regain his composure. Emily runs back, hitting the ropes again and rushes at Johnathan full speed. Emily leaps, driving Johnathan’s face into the cage with a shoulder block. He bounces off the cage and falls to the ground. Emily looks up at the cage and grabs a steel chair that has razor wire wrapped around it. She turns and gets ready to swing at Johnathan but he sees what she’s grabbed and he grabs hold of the ring ropes as Emily swings. But with nothing to connect with the momentum spins Emily in a circle and the chair bounces off the ropes and hits Emily in the face. The razor wire cuts her on the cheek, and she lowers the chair and wipes at her face. She sees the blood, and looks up at Johnathan, who has a smile on his face, loving how Emily’s idea backfired on her. Emily drops the chair and rushes at Johnathan, forcing him into the ropes. As he comes off them she grabs his head and drives it into the chair in the middle of the ring, cutting Johnathan on the forehead. He rolls over, wipes his forehead, and sees that he’s also bleeding now.
Allie: Wow! Did anyone expect this? Emily already has Johnathan bleeding.
Wayne: If this was a first blood match, Emily would have won, but unfortunately this only the beginning.
Emily comes from behind but a blind swinging clothesline by Johnathan connects and sends her down to the mat. He gets to his feet, blood running down his face. He begins to kick maniacally at Emily, shoving his boot into her ribs. Emily tries to defend herself, but the strength that Johnathan is able to get in his kicks breaks through Emily’s defense.
Wayne: Looks like Emily might be in trouble.
Johnathan suddenly stops, looking at Emily sadistically. He looks up at the cage and pulls down a baseball bat, the favorite weapon of Emily’s mom. He takes a swing but Emily is able to move slightly, but does get hit in the knee. Emily screams in pain as Johnathan swings again, and he goes for the knee again, but Emily kicks out and catches him with a kick from her other leg and into his knee. Johnathan drops the bat, but as Emily gets up Johnathan wraps his hand through Emily’s hair, bringing her to her feet. She punches him square in the jaw in return the moment she’s up to her feet. Johnathan yells with rage as he releases her hair, grabbing her by the throat and throws Emily into the cage. She bounces off and becomes entangled in the ropes.
Johnathan turns away, and begin to climb the nearest turnbuckle, ascending to the top of the cage. He gets to the top and glances down at Emily who is still struggling with the ropes. He grins, then decides to climb down the cage, dropping to the mat and pulls down a table and he begins to set it up. As he does, the crowd begins to cheer extremely loudly. Johnathan assumes it’s for him, but they cheer for Emily, who has freed herself from the trap of ropes and is quickly scaling the cage hoping to jump and land on Johnathan, taking him out.
Allie: What in the hell is Emily doing?
Wayne: Ok now she’s taking risks that I’m not sure she should try.
Allie: Well Emily is becoming known for extreme and hardcore stuff….oh tell me she isn’t.
Emily gets to the top, watching Johnathan like a hawk. Johnathan finally gets the table set up and begins to walk in front of the table. Emily sees her moment, and jumps high into the air! Emily turns herself as Johnathan looks up to see her coming down. She connects with a HUGE cross body splash, sending them both through the table with a sickening smash, both competitors bouncing off the mat like rubber balls.
Wayne: Holy shit!!
They both lay motionless for a moment as EMT’s stand at the ready to assist either of them if needed. Johnathan is the first to come to his senses and he gets up, clearing out the cobwebs. Emily is still down and doesn’t seem to be moving any time soon. Johnathan climbs up the cage, and then down the outside of it and is looking for a weapon under the ring, one that is apparently not hanging in the ring. As he’s searching Emily comes to and sits up. She pushes loose hair out of her eyes and sees Johnathan outside the ring. Emily looks up and the climbs to the nearest turnbuckle and pulls herself up and then she starts climbing up the cage. She gets to the top and watches Johnathan, who seems to have found the weapon he wanted. He straightens up and realizes Emily is no longer lying in the ring. He looks up and Emily jumps, landing right on him and sends them both to the concrete. The EMT’s get closer and Emily rolls off Johnathan, holding one knee and in pain. Johnathan is slowly coming to and the EMT’s help him up, but he shakes them off. The EMT’s don’t even reach Emily, as she comes charging through the group, driving Johnathan into the security barrier. She starts laying into Johnathan with punch after punch. Johnathan glares, and manages to lift her up into a bear hug and runs into the corner of the cage, slamming Emily’s back to the metal. Johnathan doesn’t stop there as he grabs another chair with razor wire and slides it across Emily’s back, causing her back to tear open and bleed profusely. Johnathan then slams the chair down on her back and tosses the chair aside. He pulls Emily up by her hair. Johnathan gets her up and slams her down into the concrete floor with a solid thud.
Allie: I think I’m going to be sick to my stomach.
Wayne: I need to start drinking. Know anyone who might share?
Johnathan looks around for a moment, not realizing that Emily has grabbed a bat that she saw next to her and as he bends down towards her, Emily lets him have it. Johnathan tries to dodge but his legs are heavy from the abuse so the blow hits him full force in the stomach. As he drops down to his knees. Emily is rolling away getting herself to her knees. The bat comes down like a lumberjack splitting wood onto Johnathan’s back, the sickening thud hushes the entire crowd as Johnathan to the floor.
Allie: Than heaven, looks like Emily is finding her next wind.
Wayne: Yeah, with some help.
Allie: She needs all the help she can get!
Emily forces herself to her feet with the help of the bat. She wastes no time in setting Johnathan into a sharpshooter. The pain brings him back to consciousness as he yells out in agony. He claws at a garbage can lid and with determination he manages to get hold of it. Johnathan swings back, clocking Emily in the back of the head and breaking the hold. She stumbles forward and clings to the cage to keep herself on her feet. She looks back and sees that Johnathan is making his way to his feet so she begins to climb the cage.
Allie: I think Emily as the right idea. INSIDE the cage is probably her safest spot right now.
Emily is stopped suddenly as Johnathan grabs her foot and yanks her down off the cage. A hard push puts her into the security barrier and Johnathan is on her in one instant, lifting her up and setting her legs onto the barrier. He drops down, sending her headfirst into the concrete floor.
Wayne: Ouch! That will leave a mark.
He then nonchalantly grabs a chair and steps onto the apron of the ring where the cage door is located and kicks hard, sending the door flying on its hinges. Johnathan sits down in the chair that was once in the ring, just waiting for Emily to get back up. And get back up is just what she does, looking at Johnathan as she grabs the ladder, throwing it into the ring and grabbing the bat before she enters the cage.
Allie: People said this would be vicious, I think that’s an understatement.
Wayne: He’s stalking his prey, and she’s going to play right into his hands.
She goes for another swing but a quick kick to her gut hunches her over. Johnathan grabs the bat, yanking it from her grasp and throwing it aside. He picks Emily up for a suplex but she swings her body weight while in the air, causing Johnathan to lose control and she swings forward into a DDT right onto the leg of a ladder that came to rest in the middle of the ring. She cringes in pain at the damage the ladder causes her already tortured body. Johnathan twists away from the ladder with hands to his face, blood pouring through his fingers like a faucet that had been turn on as his face had connected with the ladder. Johnathan manages to make his way to the turnbuckle and uses it to keep his feet under him.
Meanwhile Emily begins to set up the ladder as Johnathan bends down and grabs his shirt from earlier, tearing a long strip and wrapping it around his head to keep the blood out of his eyes. He quickly sidesteps the flying dropkick that Emily tried to place off the ladder. Johnathan reaches down and picks Emily up by the neck and tosses her toward the ring ropes.
Allie: No!
Wayne: I’m going to need something pretty strong to drink.
As Johnathan walks over to Emily gets back up and they trade blow after blow in the middle of the ring. After receiving five hits to the face Johnathan goes for a clothesline but Emily ducks underneath it and hits the back of Johnathan’s legs with a dropkick. She quickly gets up and sees him teetering while getting up, holding the ropes to regain his footing and balance.
Allie: You know, amazingly Emily has managed to keep up with the speed of Johnathan. Did anyone expect her to?
Wayne: What do you mean? Emily’s proven she can stay in there.
Allie: Would you please pick a side.
Wayne: Meaning?
Allie: Who are you rooting for…….wait have you been betting on Emily or Johnathan?
Wayne: …..(dead silence)
Emily sees her opportunity and charges full blast, hitting Johnathan with a shoulder charge with such force that he breaks through the cage door and tumbles to the floor below in a heap of blood and metal. Emily sees him stir so she drags herself to the farthest turnbuckle and begins to slowly climb to the top of the cage once again, determined to end things once and for all.
Allie: Emily has lost her mind! This could end it for her!
Johnathan manages to get the broken piece of cage off him and sees that Emily is climbing, but instead of going after her directly he begins to climb the cage himself. They both reach the top of about the same time, both struggling to keep their balance from the height and loss of blood. Emily walks towards Johnathan and once again they begin to trade blows, both of them almost to the point of falling every time one of them swings.
Wayne: Ok, now they are both losing their minds. They fall from up there, we’ll need a shovel to pick up the pieces.
Johnathan takes a punch and quickly lunges towards Emily, once again clamping in a bear hug and she screams as he crushes the air out of her lungs. In desperation, Emily slams down with both of her fists into the face of Johnathan. Again and again she slams down until Johnathan begins to lose his grasp. In a suicidal decision Johnathan pushes away from the cage instead of letting o. They both tumble down, crashing through the announcer’s table as everybody scrambles to get out of the way.
Both Emily and Johnathan lay in a heap of wood and electronic equipment, blood pouring out of both of them. Johnathan coughs suddenly, splitting out blood as his body convulses to keep itself alive. He grabs Emily’s lifeless form and begins to slowly drag her towards the ring steps. Inching himself forward, he pulls her up to the steps and props her up, her head laying silently on one of the steps as her body sits limp next to the steps.
Dead silence from the commentators for a minute.
Johnathan staggers and tumbles to the ground, with grim determination he makes his way to the apron and pulls out a sledgehammer. He pulls himself up and makes his way back to the steps, dragging his left leg and the hammer behind him. Finally he positions himself, nobody daring to stop Johnathan in his insane plan. He heaves the sledgehammer over his head and prepares to swing for the fences.
Allie: No!
A strange look crosses Johnathan’s face as he looks down at Emily, so decimated by their match she lays there, only her shallow breathing convincing the world that she is still alive. Suddenly he yells and pulls back, the entire crowd gasping as he swings the sledgehammer with all his might.
Allie: Thank heaven, he missed.
Wayne: Yeah but will he miss again? I think he’s trying to scare her more than anything.
Allie: Or kill her.
Wayne: Mills wouldn’t do that.
Johnathan is ready to go for a third try…..but Emily has been playing him! While lying there she’s been getting her wits about her again and she lands a kick first to his knee and when he lowers the sledgehammer, she goes for the groin. Johnathan crumples to the ground. Emily looks to be going for a pin, then picks Johnathan up and hits him with a solid suplex onto the concrete floor. Johnathan seems to be knocked out, or at least not in his mind, and Emily grabs him by the feet and begins dragging Johnathan to the steps and INTO the cage. It takes a few minutes, and a few kicks to the stomach but she gets him in there. She pulls him up to his feet and throws him into the ropes, ready to nail him with a dropkick when he comes off the ropes….
But he knew what was going on and uses the ropes to stop his momentum! Emily drops to the canvas and realizes what has happened. She gets to her feet and looks around, seeing the chair with razor wire. She rushes at it, picks it up….and nails Johnathan across the chest with it as he charges at her! Johnathan falls back to the canvas and finally, for the first time in this match…..
1…..2….3!!
Allie: I don’t believe it. Emily’s done it!
Wayne: She’s still champion!
Anne Carpenter: Your winner and STILL SCW Alternative champion…..Emily Desmond!
Emily gets to her feet and falls back into the turnbuckle as the referee gets the belt and hands it to Emily. She gets up and raises it into the air. Johnathan is getting to his feet, disappointed that he couldn’t stop Emily’s reign. However showing there are no hard feelings (really? they just tried killing each other) he offers his hand to congratulate her. Emily cautiously extends her hand and he shakes it, and raises her arm. He lets go of her hand and applauds with the crowd. Johnathan gets to the cage door just as Chris Desmond, who was backstage (at Emily’s request) wants to climb in. Johnathan gets out and Chris climbs in, looking like the proud daddy as he goes up to his daughter and raises her hand. She hugs her dad with one arm while the other holds onto the Alternative title belt.
WINNER: EMILY DESMOND
STILL SCW ALTERNATIVE CHAMPION
Backstage, in the dressing room of Paige Lewis, Mr. Walker is on his folder, upset.
Mr. Walker: WHAT DO YOU MEAN NOBODY HAS SEEN HER IN TWO WEEKS!? WHERE THE HELL IS SHE?! SHE WAS SEEN LEAVING THE COUNTRY A WEEK AGO!!
After a few seconds, Mr. Walker spoke again.
Mr. Walker: Get me the-
He paused again. This time, it was a few minutes before he spoke again. He swore.
Mr. Walker: You’re telling me the CIA, the NSA, SIS AND the SAS cannot find this one woman!? This is insane! Where the hell could she be?
Another pause.
Mr. Walker: Very well, sir.
A moment later, Mr. Walker was putting his phone away. He looked around the dressing room, which was empty of person effects, then he turned to the camera.
Mr. Walker: Due to unforeseen circumstances, the SCW World Heavyweight Championship match will not be taking place tonight. As such, the SCW International Heavyweight Championship match is our new main event. I’ll hopefully have more information soon.
The scene faded back to Allie and Wayne.
Wayne Miller: What the hell is going on? Was he talking about PAige Lewis? Is she the one missing?
Allie Queen: I don’t know, but whoever it is, they’d better pray to every god they know of. CIA, NSA, SIS, and SAS can’t find you, and you are truly missing! It looks like our next match has just been upgraded top main event!
Wayne Miller: This one is going to be good.
Allie Queen: A lot of people are expecting this to be a totally one sided match. We’ve got the rookie Larissa, taking on Jessica Tendonin, arguably the biggest star in SCW…ever.
Wayne Miller: Stranger things have happened, so we’ll just have to wait and see!
Allie Queen: And it’s go time!
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is the main event of the evening, and it is scheduled as a Tables, Ladders, and Chairs match, and it is for the SCW International Heavyweight Championship! Introducing first, the challenger, from Shanghai, China…Larissa!
As the Chinese National Anthem began playing, Larissa came out on stage and stepped onto a pedestal. It began rotating slowly while she held her hands up in the air. After a few revolutions, it slowed to a stop and Larissa stepped off and began making her way to the ring. Coming down the ramp, she removed a compact mirror and began admiring herself. After climbing into the ring, Larissa put the mirror away and stood in the corner.
Wayne Miller: Larissa is about to compete in the biggest match of her career so far, and one can only imagine what is on her mind.
Allie Queen: Only one thing matters to her right now…winning.
Anne Carpenter: And her opponent, she is the reigning and defending SCW International Heavyweight Champion…hailing from Shaker Heights, Ohio, she weighed in at 191lbs this morning, she is the Paraguayan Sensation…please welcome…JESSICA TENDONIN!!
Imaginary (Synthesis Version) by Evanescence began playing through the arena audio system as the crowd exploded, getting excited to hear the classic theme.
“I Linger In The Doorway!”
Allie: Oh, we’re using this theme again!
Wayne: She used this theme on the night she ascended to the SCW World Heavyweight Championship! Will she retain tonight using this song?
After a few seconds, Jessica Tendonin walked out onto the stage, the SCW International Championship around her waist. She stood there for a moment, raising both arms above her head, posing for the fans who cheered her. Jessica then began walking down the ramp, slowly lowering her arms.
Jessica reached the ring and stood for a moment, looking around at the arena. Basking in the cheers, Jessica smiled as she climbed into the ring. She walked to the nearest turnbuckle and climbed it, posing for the crowd. Jessica unhooked the belt from her waist and held it in the air.
Jessica jumped down from the second rope, stretching in the corner.
Allie: Larissa and Jessica will fight to the end over the SCW International Heavyweight Champion, that Jessica has spent over a year polishing.
Wayne: The bookies have it ten thousand to one that Jessica leaves with the championship! I’m putting a hundred down on her! That’s…that is a million dollars when she wins! Holy shit!
The referee took the championship from Jessica and held it up in the air as the crowd cheered loudly. After a moment, the referee gestured for the hook to be lowered so he could put the belt on it. As the championship rose above the ring, the bell rang and the main event began.
Allie: And we are ready to get going here in this main event!
Wayne: I still want to know what happened, but Mr. Walker isn’t talking much about it.
Larissa and Jessica met in the center of the ring, and Jessica held her hand out. Larissa slapped it away. Jessica grinned as she swung the hand back, striking Larissa across the face and making her stagger back a bit.
Allie: Cheapshot from the Champion!
Wayne: Cheapshot my ass! That is the International Heavyweight Champion!!! She may do as she pleases!
Larissa dove at Jessica, but Jessica held up an elbow, and Larissa crashed into it at her temple. On her knees, Larissa struggled to get up, but Jessica grabbed her by the hair and drove her face first into the mat. Larissa lifted her head up from the mat, and Jessica put her foot on the back of the challengers head, and stomped, driving her into the mat again. Larissa didn’t move this time.
Allie: What the hell! Brutal!
Wayne: God damn, I think Larissa is knocked out!
Observing the unmoving Larissa for a moment, Jessica turned to crowd and bowed extravagantly with a wicked grin. Then, the International Champion went to a corner and climbed then sat on the turnbuckle. Elbows on her knees and face in her hands, the champion waited.
Allie: What the hell is she doing?
Wayne: I think she wants to drag this one out a bit.
After a couple of minutes, which Jessica spent making funny faces at the crowd, Larisa began moving again. Jessica hopped off the turnbuckle and stalked Larissa from behind. The challenger was bleeding as she got to her feet. Dazed, Larissa turned around to a Belly to Belly Suplex from Jessica, sending her flying across the ring.
Allie: Larissa is busted open, but Jessica is not letting up!
Wayne: Why the hell would she?! The SCW International Heavyweight Championship is on the line, and this is the new main event of TLC!
Larissa got to her feet just in time to take one of Jessica’s powerful knees in her midsection, making her double over. Jessica leaned on the ropes for momentum and went for a scissor kick, but Larissa shoved her backwards, sending the champion tumbling through the ropes to the outside.
Allie: This is the first bit of offense Larissa has gotten in for this whole match so far! She needs to keep it going if she wants to walk out as the new champion!
Wayne: I love a good underdog story, but think about what you’re saying! That’s Jessica freaking Tendonin! That’s Miss SCW herself! This rookie has no chance!
Larissa launched herself over the top rope, diving into Jessica, and both crashed to the floor. Larissa was on her feet first and she quickly grabbed a chair and slammed it over Jessica’s back. The champion groaned in pain, but Larissa hit her with the chair again and again until it was bent and useless. With the champion down, the challenger set up a table between the apron and the barricade.
Allie: Larissa taking control here, and working strategically.
Wayne: Strategically? She beat her with one chair!
Jessica was on one knee when Larissa turned to her. Jessica lunged but Larissa was ready and flipped her up and over, sending the champion crashing through the table. The crowd cheered in excitement as the first table of the match was smashed. Larissa picked Jessica and rammed her into a ringpost, dazing the champion. Another ram into the ringpost and Jessica was busted open.
Allie: Oh my god!
Wayne: Hold on! I’m getting word that Mr. Walker has just decreed that the winner of this match will face Paige Lewis for the SCW World Heavyweight Championship!
Allie: WHAT?!
Wayne: I swear that is what I’m being told! This just got higher stakes put on it!
Larissa and Jessica began trading fists. Jessica, taller, stronger, bigger, and with more reach, took control and easily punched Larissa against the apron. Larissa, instead of covering her face or blocking her chin, tried to block individual hits. Jessica, using her knowledge of boxing, used this to her advantage and after a flurry of punches to her opponents midsection, caught her chin with a heavy right. Larissa stiffened up as she fell to the floor.
Allie: Larissa is out! Jessica has knocked Larissa out for the second time in this match!
Wayne: I told you! Larissa really has her work cut out for her! At this point, she just better pray she doesn’t have to be taken out on a stretcher! Larissa is not leaving this arena with the SCW International Heavyweight Championship!
Jessica looked at Larissa, grinning before turning to move towards a ladder. Breaking it down and sliding the ladder into the ring, the champion rolled into the ring as well. Jessica pointed up at the championship and crowd roared. With a pleased nod, she set up the ladder under the championship.
Allie: Larissa is still out, and this match could be over in seconds!
Wayne: I’m telling you, Jessica has this in the bag.
Jessica began slowly climbing the ladder, taking her time. When she was halfway up, the ladder was knocked over by Larissa. The crowd roared as Jessica flew off the ladder and bounced off the top rope and flew out of the ring and into the front row seating area at ringside. The crowd began chanting Holy Shit as they crowded around where Jessica landed.
Allie: Larissa saves the match but holy shit!
Wayne: I have to believe Jessica could be seriously hurt after that!
Larissa rolled out of the ring and grabbed a chair. Jumping to the barricade, Larissa tossed the chair to where Jessica was before throwing herself at her opponent. A bloodcurdling scream came from the crowd. Larissa jumped to her feet looking pleased with herself. She then picked Jessica up and threw her over the barricade to the floor, and now the scream was understood.
Allie: OH MY GOD! THAT’S FUCKING TERRIBLE!!!
Wayne: THAT HAS TO HURT LIKE A BITCH!!!
Jessica’s left arm, halfway up the forearm, was not in the correct anatomic state. Her arm was broken. Larissa picked the champion up and rolled her into the ring before following her. Both women got to their feet, and Larissa went for a kick to the midsection, but Jessica parried with her knee, turning Larissa and then driving her right elbow into the small of her back.
Allie: How is she still going!? We need to get medical staff out here! This match is over! Jessica simply can’t continue!
Wayne: Oh no, Jessica won’t let anyone look at that til this match is over.
Larissa turned around groaning, and Jessica put her right hand around Larissa’s throat, and crowd popped.
Allie: Impossible!
Wayne: Jessica’s gonna go for the Chokeslam with one broken arm!
Larissa kicked Jessica in the gut, making her release the challenger. Jessica staggered backwards and Larissa charged at her. Jessica crouched and leaned into Larissa and then stood up with the challenger on her shoulders. With one good arm, she managed to nail the F5, sending Larissa to the mat.
Allie: WHAT THE HELL?! HOW!
Wayne: With a broken arm, Jessica Tendonin is still giving Larissa a hell of a contest! This needs to end fast, so that that broken arm can be properly set! That was an incredible T5, however!
With Larissa down, Jessica took a few seconds to catch her breath before moving for the ladder. There was a sense of urgency about her movement now, none of the cocky bravada from earlier in the match. Setting the ladder up quickly, Jessica wasted no time as she began climbing toward the SCW International Heavyweight Championship. The fans in the arena were screaming at the top of their lungs as she reached the top. Jessica took a few seconds to catch her breath. That was a mistake.
Allie: Larissa is up! Larissa is up!
Wayne: Grab the damn belt!!! End this now!
Larissa climbed the other side of the ladder with amazing speed. A struggle ensued at the top. Larissa with two good arms and Jessica with one good arm seemed even at first. And then, Larissa had Jessica set up in a Hammerlock.
Allie: The Shanghai Noon! She’s setting it up!
Wayne: Oh god, no! Not off the ladder!!!
Larissa drove Jessica into the mat below with the Hammerlock DDT. Jessica wasn’t moving. Larissa was back on her feet in seconds, and moving for the ladder. The arena erupted into a massive uproar of mixed reactions.
Allie: We’re going to have a new champion!
Wayne: I can’t believe what I’m seeing!
Larissa quickly climbed the ladder, and when she reached the top, Jessica still wasn’t moving. Larissa reached up and unhooked the SCW International Heavyweight Championship. The bell rang as the fans went into a frenzy. Larissa herself even looked shocked as she stared at the championship.
Allie: WE HAVE A NEW INTERNATIONAL CHAMPION!!!
Wayne: GOD DAMNIT!!!
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of this match, and the new SCW INTERNATIONAL HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION…LARISSA!!!
EMTs began flooding the ring to check on Jessica as Larissa climbed down the ladder. A pair attended to the new champion as she got on her knees to look at the belt, still not believing she’d done it. TLC went off the air with this image.
WINNER:LARISSA

Allie: I’ve just gotten word that Jacina missed her flight and will not be competing tonight! Our opening match has just become a one on one match!
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
The camera catches up as Emily Desmond is having a talk with her father just outside her locker room. She looks at it, then looks past it. Quickly Sean Foster appears in the picture, mic in hand.
Sean Foster: Emily we’re now weeks away from TLC and at TLC you defend the SCW Alternative title against one of your competitors tonight, Johnathan Mills. You’ve been known for having intense matches, will TLC be different?
Emily looks at Sean with a bit of amusement.
Emily: I’ve done ladder matches, no disqualifications, but at TLC I’m going to bring a different level of intensity to the title when I defend it in…..a cage match.
Sean looks at Emily, puzzled.
Emily: But not just any cage, this cage will have weapons in it!
Sean pales at this but keeps his composure.
Sean: Weapons?
Emily looks at Sean, a bit exasperated that he asked this question like he’s never heard of the idea.
Emily: Yes weapons in the cage, hanging from the sides. We’re talking ball bats, chairs, anything that can be used to attack your opponent. I chose this because I feel that Mills will be one of my tougher opponents and I want to make sure that when the bell rings and I’m declared the winner, that there Is NO doubt that I’m the greatest Alternative champion.
Sean is staring at Emily as if he’s seeing a new person. She certainly doesn’t act, or hasn’t acted this way at home.
Emily: Everyone has been wrong about me so far. I beat Priest for this title and I’ve taken on all comers, and Mills is the latest. I would think he could look and see who I’ve been up against and realize that I’m not some withering wall flower but I’m a true competitor, that I’m not afraid.
Sean: But…given the match you decided on, he could be the one that is victorious and then your reign ends.
Emily: Do you think I didn’t think of that? But I also don’t want Mills, or Paige, or whoever, to think I haven’t defended this title.
Sean: I doubt anyone has thought this.
Emily: Plus I hope that my reign as champion, that my abilities are no longer questioned and then I hope to get a shot at……
Emily looks at Sean to see if he can figure out what she’s going to say. He doesn’t say a word so she sighs and continues.
Emily: I know that Paige Lewis holds a title shot for my belt. Well two can play at that game…..I want a shot at the SCW World title. I think given my record I’ve more than earned it. Now if you’ll excuse me.
Chris opens Emily’s door to her locker room and she goes in, and Alzy can be heard saying “have you lost your mind?” The door closes and Sean looks at Chris Desmond, who adjusts his jacket.
Chris: People didn’t believe Emily could win, then every time she’s defended it they doubted she could keep it. I think wanting a shot at Paige…..was been well earned.
Chris goes in the locker room and the door closes as the camera goes back to ring side.

In the ring, Mr. Walker was standing at a table, holding a microphone. The crowd was popping with excitement as he gestured for them to calm down. After a moment, he began speaking.
Mr. Walker: Ladies and gentlemen, you know we usually do this later in the evening, but tonight is a bit different. At Overdrive 48, I made it official. Brian Kennedy will challenge Paige Lewis for the SCW World Heavyweight Championship! First, I’d like to have both of them come on out here now. Brian Kennedy!
Eulogy by Tool hit the PA system and a moment later, Brian Kennedy walked out onto the stage, carrying his half of the SCW World Tag Team Championship. He quickly made his way to the ring, where he shook hands with Mr. Walker. Holding the championship up, he posed drawing a response from the crowd.
Mr. Walker: And the premier of SCW, the SCW World Heavyweight Champion…PAIGE LEWIS!
Spotlight by Hot Tag Media Works rang out from the PA system and the crowd roared to life. After about 30 seconds, Paige Lewis walked out onto the stage, the SCW World Heavyweight Championship around her waist.
Allie Queen: And there is our champion! I can’t wait til we see what happens between these two at TLC!
Wayne Miller: I want to know what kind of match they’re competing in! Last year, Paige defended against Priest at TLC, in an extreme rules TLC match, and that match was easily a future classic!
Lewis began making her way down the ramp. Near the bottom, she pointed at a sign held up by a young girl that read “Paige vs Brian, 3-0!” Leaning over to hug the young girl and take a few pictures, the champion basked in the adoration of the fans before ascending to the apron.
Allie Queen: Paige Lewis always makes time to respond to her adoring fans.
With both competitors in the ring now, Mr. Walker raised his mic.
Mr. Walker: Alright, now that everyone is here, we’ve got some business to take care of. First of all, you are both great competitors, and regardless of what happens at TLC, you both have set a precedent in this company. Brian, I’m going to have you sign first.
With no hesitation, Brian Kennedy picked up his contract and signed his name. Dropping the clipboard on the table, he turned to Paige Lewis.
Mr. Walker: And your turn, champ.
Paige Lewis picked up the contract meant for her, and began signing it. Finishing, she picked up a microphone.
Paige Lewis: Mr. Walker, I have a proposition. I know you were planning on having me defend the championship against Brian Kennedy in a TLC match. But, I’ve done that already. I propose something…different.
Before Mr. Walker could respond, Brian Kennedy spoke up, having grabbed a mic of his own.
Brian Kennedy: You know what, you let her pick whatever match type she thinks she has a chance of beating me-
Paige Lewis: Done it twice.
Brian Kennedy: You won’t do it again!-
Mr. Walker: Well, since you both feel so strongly about it, I concede. Paige, how would you like to defend the championship?
Paige Lewis: People seem to overlook the fact that I’ve gotten hardcore a few times. I don’t care what I have to break, climb, bend, or rip. I do what I have to do. To that end, I have decided to defend the SCW World Heavyweight Championship in…the Ultimate Joke’s On You Match!
Mr. Walker: Alright, consider it done.
Brian Kennedy: Wait a minute, dammit! What the hell is a Ultimate Joke’s On You Match?!-
Paige Lewis: The match I’m going to beat you in at TLC.
Kennedy charged at Lewis, but before he got across the ring, the raggedy woman, Princess Kiya, slid into the ring, standing at Paige’s side. Kennedy looked as if he was still going to assault the champion, but Mr. Walker hustled him out of the ring as the crowd popped. The scene then cut to commercial.

Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, the following non title contest is scheduled for one fall, and it is to determine the number one contender for the SCW International Heavyweight Championship! Introducing first, from San Diego, California, weighing in at 180lbs, she is The Wrath of the Desert…FURY!!!
The intro to “Zombie” hits as the fans stand in anticipation. A pyro shoots up from the entrance ramp as Vero walks out to the ramp with a scowl on her face. She begins her slow descent down the ramp with her still not acknowledging the crowd nor making any contact. Once she reaches the end of the entrance ramp, she looks at the crowd around her, surveying her surroundings before running towards the ring and sliding under the ropes.
She heads straight for the upper left turnbuckle and climbs it surveying the crowd without any taunt, like an animal stalking their prey. She then heads towards the opposite turnbuckle and does the same. She descends the top right turnbuckle and does stretches using the ropes as she waits for the bell to ring or for her opponent to arrive.
Allie Queen: As we saw a few minutes ago as we came on the air, Jacina missed her flight and has been removed from this match! This is now one on one, Fury vs Larissa!
Wayne Miller: The winner goes on the challenge Jessica for the SCW International Heavyweight Championship! Either of them facing Jessica and coming out on top would be one hell of a shocker! My money is on Fury taking it home tonight, and leaving TLC with SCW gold!
Anne Carpenter: And her opponent, from Shanghai, Larissa!
As the Chinese National Anthem began playing, Larissa came out on stage and stepped onto a pedestal. It began rotating slowly while she held her hands up in the air. After a few revolutions, it slowed to a stop and Larissa stepped off and began making her way to the ring. Coming down the ramp, she removed a compact mirror and began admiring herself. After climbing into the ring, Larissa put the mirror away and stood in the corner.
Allie Queen: Larissa chances have increased in this match, with Jacina being removed.
Wayne Miller: Nah, Fury is taking this one home!
The bell rang and the two women charged at each other. Fury took Larissa down with a Lariat, but both women got back to their feet quickly. Larissa sent a dropkick Fury’s way, but it was dodged. Larissa got up and took a kick to the gut. Fury then went for a kick to the head,, but Larissa dodged it and dropkicked Fury into the ropes.
Allie Queen: Good back and forth here in the very beginning. You have to wonder, who really wants it the most, though, and who will be able to capitalize.
Wayne Miller: Oh, I think…wait, what is she doing out here?!
On the stage, the SCW International Heavyweight Champion, Jessica Tendonin, had appeared, carrying the championship over her shoulder. The fans popped as she made her way down the ramp, stopping halfway. Larissa and Fury both turned to look her way briefly.
Allie Queen: Getting a closer look at her next challenger, I expect.
Wayne Miller: I hope that’s all. We know how she gets sometimes.
Larissa turned to Fury and took her down with a Snapmare, driving her head first into the mat. Larissa went for a knee drop, and Fury rolled out of the way. Larissa got back to her feet as Fury went for a clothesline. Larissa countered into an armbar. They were in the center of the ring, and Fury had nowhere to go. Amazingly, Fury broke out of the hold.
Allie Queen: I can’t believe it!
Wayne Miller: Fury using her immense strength to simply yank her arm out of the armbar!
Allie Queen: Right back into the frying pan! Larissa’s got the Hammerlock!
Larissa indeed was executing another move. One arm pulled around Fury’s back, Larissa hooked her head, and then drove her into the mat with a Hammerlock DDT, driving the crowd wild. Larissa quickly rolled into a cover.
1……………2……………3!!!
The bell rang as the crowd exploded, having not expected the sudden finish. The Chinese National Anthem began playing.
Wayne Miller: OH MY GOD!!! IT IS OVER! LARISSA HAS JUST KNOCKED OFF FURY!
Allie Queen: I CAN’T BELIEVE IT! THE FANS CAN’T BELIEVE IT! LARISSA CAN BELIEVE IT, BUT THIS JUST HAPPENED!
In the ring, Larissa is looking around, mouth open and eyes wide, still in shock.
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, here is your winner, and the new number one contender for the SCW International Heavyweight Championship…Larissa!
Jessica Tendonin made her way to the ring, applauding Larissa as she entered. Jessica was handed a microphone and Larissa’s music died down.
Jessica Tendonin: I’ve gotta say, I’m shocked. Here I’ve been preparing to face Fury again, and you’ve completely thrown a wrench into my preparation. Congratulations, Larissa. I’m looking forward to our match at TLC even more now.
Wayne Miller: I think this is going to be an interesting match.
Allie Queen: This night has started off with a huge upset.
Jessica looked around the arena before continuing.
Jessica Tendonin: Mr. Walker has given me carte blanche as it pertains to our match at TLC. And so…I’ve decided to go old school. Larissa, you and I will battle over this International Heavyweight Championship…in a TLC Match. Tables, Ladders, and Chairs, all fair game. Good luck, Larissa.
Allie Queen: TLC Match!
With that, Jessica exited the ring and walked up the ramp, the crowd cheering for her and Larissa.
WINNER: LARISSA
NUMBER ONE CONTENDER FOR SCW INTERNATIONAL HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Backstage, Brian Kennedy, Lucius Tendonin, and Jessica Tendonin are standing in front of the DEA logo. Brian and Lucius are holding the SCW World Tag Team Championships, while Jessica holds the SCW International Championship. Brian begins speaking.
Brian Kennedy: You know what…I’m getting tired of all the talking and whining. All this talk about what people deserve, or favoritism, and just overall bullshit from people who don’t know what the fuck they’re talking about. I think it’s amazing how the people who have the most to say, know the least about what they’re talking about.
Lucius Tendonin: The DEA has never ran or ducked a challenge, from anybody, ever. So, when we hear people flapping their gums with our name in their mouth, we take that shit personal.
Brian Kennedy: Call me crazy. Call me a glutton for punishment. Call me whatever. Just don’t call me or my crew cowards. Hellfire, you’ve been talking shit for months now, and it has finally gotten to me. You clowns talk a big game, but you’ve had multiple chances, and you failed each time.
Lucius shook his head before speaking.
Lucius Tendonin: But…the Dragon Empire Agents are, if nothing else, ready for anything and anyone. Can you say the same, Hellfire? Well, we’re going to find out soon. Because at TLC, we’re giving you clowns another chance. But…it won’t be in a match you’ve ever seen before. You see, we’ve concocted a special match for you. Tell them about it, Brian.
Brian Kennedy: We’re calling it the BLACT Match. Now, get your mind out of the gutter and ignore the similarity to the name of that porn company that makes interracial porn. This is gonna be all hardcore. Mind out of the gutter again.
Lucius Tendonin: I’m certain we could have gone about that differently, but oh well. Hellfire, you’ve run your mouth for too long. Now, it’s time to shut you up again. It’s going to be a rough match for all involved, but I guarantee DEA will come out on top. And how, you might ask, am I gonna do that? Well…if there is one thing that everyone should have learned by now since SCW reopened…there are three people here who have been damn near untouchable since the Reunion.
No, I’m not saying it’s us, the DEA. Well, not totally. Paige Lewis has been smoking everyone she comes across. My guy Brian Kennedy is gonna put her down at TLC, though. Then, there is you, Emily Desmond. You’ve done pretty good with that Alternative Championship, and are one of the three I’m talking about. Oh, but the third…I’ve had the pleasure of watching her perform for nearly two decades.
So, when I say I guarantee the DEA will successfully defend the SCW World Tag Team Championship…well…
Lucius smiled as he handed his tag team belt to his wife, and the redhead batted her eyes while kissing his cheek. Jessica smiled, turned back to the camera now. The three of them began to laugh as the scene faded.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Cassie Mason: Ladies and gentlemen, the following singles contest is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, from parts unknown…the Masked Avenger!
The intro to Sucker Punch by Korn blasts over air waves as The Masked Avenger comes out on stage and then taunts the fans. They boo the Avenger as the being walks down to the ring and then rolls into the ring and runs over to the ropes and then taunts the crowd on the ropes then The Avenger jumps down from the ropes and then waits for his opponent.
Cassie Mason: And his opponent, hailing from Canton, Ohio, he is part of the SCW World Tag Team Champions, and the number one contender for the SCW World Heavyweight Championship…Brian Kennedy!
As the rhythm picks up after around a minute of music plays and the words start to work its way through the arena the lights cut out and a spot light shines at the top of the ramp. Brian is seen standing there with a smile, in his hand is a 20 lb sledge hammer.
He had alot to say.
He had alot of nothing to say.
(We’ll miss him. 2x)
He had alot to say.
He had alot of nothing to say.
(We’ll miss him. 2x)
(We’re gonna miss him. 2x)
So loooooong!
Fire shoots out from the stage. Smoke rises from the stage as he starts to walk toward the ring. He stops about Half way to the ring as he flexes in front of the camera kissing his sledge hammer. He smirks in to the camera yelling snide remarks.
We wish you well.
You told us how you weren’t afraid to die.
Well so looooooong.
Don’t cryyyyy.
Or feel too down.
Not all martyrs see divinity.
But at least you tried.
He climbs up the steps and turns toward the crowd and taunts them by flipping them off and girls scream his name. He stops and turns back towards the crowd and jumps over the top rope and stands in the middle of the ring, he looks around and drops the sledge hammer and flexes as the flashes flow through out the arena.
Standing above the crowd
he had a voice that was strong and loud.
(We’ll miss him. 2x)
Ranting and pointing his finger
at everything but his heart.
(We’ll miss him. 2x)
(We’re gonna miss him. 2x)
No wayyyyyy
to recall
what it was that you had said to me,
like I care at alll.
But he was sooo louuud.
You sure could yell.
You took a stand on every little thing
and soooo louuuuuuuuud.
You, could be, the one, who saves, me from, my own, existence.
He climbs all the turnbuckles yet again doing a pose with his arms spread out wide from each one as the music fades.
Allie Queen: Kennedy is really ahead of the 8 ball right now. He is two matches away from making history here in SCW.
Wayne Miller: Yeah, TLC is going to be amazing! I still don’t know what an Ultimate Joke’s On You Match is!
The bell rang and both men charged at each other. Masked Avenger dodged a clothesline, and grabbed Kennedy by the hair, yanking backwards and driving their opponent into the mat. Kennedy clutched his head in pain as he got to his feet, but was knocked down again as Masked Avenger took him down with a leg sweep.
Allie Queen: Wow, Masked Avenger with multiple takedowns early on in this match.
Wayne Miller: We still don’t know much about him or her as it stands, and you have to wonder how that will work against Kennedy.
Kennedy was quickly on his feet, and this time, when Masked Avenger went for a take down, Kennedy blocked the attack and shoved his opponent backwards. Masked Avenger charged forward, and Kennedy took them down with a huge elbow to the face that stunned Masked Avenger. As Kennedy advanced on Masked Avenger, suddenly, the lights went out.
Allie Queen: What the hell?!
Wayne Miller: Who is messing with the lights?! We’ve got a match going on, dammit!
Movement was heard in the ring, and a moment later, when the lights came back on, Kennedy was laid out and Masked Avenger was covering him for a pin attempt.
1……………2……………3!!!
Allie Queen: What the hell just happened here?
Wayne Miller: This shit has to stop! We can’t go one damn event with some shit happening to Kennedy now!
Cassie Mason: Ladies and gentlemen, here is your winner, Masked Avenger!
WINNER: MASKED AVENGER
Anne Carpenter: The following contest is the main event! First from New York, accompanied by Chris Desmond, weighing at 415 pounds, this is SCW Alternative champion Emily Desmond and Alzy Hawkshaw…..Hellfire!
Lights go out as “King Nothing” by Metallic comes up. Lights slowly come up at 30 seconds to show Alzy on one side, and Emily on the other, with Chris Desmond, dressed impeccably in a dark blue suit. Alzy and Emily are both wearing long black tights with flames of different shades of green and purple on them. Emily wears a solid green shirt and they both have black trench coats. Alzy wears his hair down, like he normally does when wrestling, where Emily has hers in a ponytail. At 40 seconds they start making their way to the ring, ignoring the boos from the fans. As they reach the ring the circle round it once going different sides. If their opponents aren’t in the ring, at 1:14 they climb in. If their opponents are in the ring, they remove their jackets outside the ring and stare down their opponents before suddenly charging the ring at 1:40.
Allie:Hellfire has been trying for some time to win the tag team titles. A few months ago Chris and Emily brought in Alzy.
Wayne: That hasn’t been going the way they hoped. Alzy has had ups and downs in SCW.
Emily and Alzy slide into the ring.
Anne Carpenter: And their opponents, the number one contender for the SCW Alternative Championship, and the current SCW International Heavyweight Champion, Johnathan Mills and Jessica Tendonin!
Party Monster by The Weeknd began playing through the arena audio system as the crowd exploded.
“I’m Good, I’m Good, I’m Great!”
After a few seconds, Jessica Tendonin walked out onto the stage, Johnathan Mills at her side, the SCW International Heavyweight Championship around her waist. She stood there for a moment, raising both arms above her head, posing for the fans who cheered her. Jessica then began walking down the ramp, slowly lowering her arms. Mills walked beside her, high fiving fans along the way.
Jessica reached the ring and stood for a moment, looking around at the arena. Basking in the cheers, Jessica smiled as she climbed into the ring while Mills held the ropes open for her. Then, Jessica held the ropes open for Mills.. She walked to the nearest turnbuckle and climbed it, posing for the crowd. Jessica unhooked the belt from her waist and held it in the air.
Jessica jumped down from the second rope, fistbumping Mills
Allie:These people are indeed ready to tear into each other. Emily and Alzy could get a huge win tonight. And think about it, we have a former Alternative champion, the current one, and the current challenger.
Wayne: And then there’s Alzy.
Each team debates who will start as the referee looks on. A few moments later, Johnathan and Emily step through the ropes as Jessica and Alzy step forward. The ref looks them over, arms outstretched to keep them apart. He then brings his arms together before signaling for the bell. Jessica and Alzy step forward to lock up. Even though Alzy might be the slightly bigger competitor they seem evenly matched. Alzy is able to power Jessica into a neutral corner. The referee orders the two to separate. Alzy backs off, hands in the air to signify compliance (something Jessica has been doing since being pushed into the corner). However before Jessica is back on her guard, Alzy slaps her across the face.
Allie:What the hell? What is Alzy doing?
Wayne: Signing his own death warrant.
Alzy back stepped to the middle of the ring, laughing arrogantly as Jessica raised a hand to her face slowly, amazed that Alzy had the gall to perform such a disrespectful action. However, after the shock dies down she smiles.
Allie:Why is Jessica smiling?
Jessica is still smiling slightly as she comes slowly out of the corner. Cautiously she raises her hands up, asking for another grapple. Alzy raises his arms as well, looking to oblige her. However Alzy lunges into Jessica’s stomach with a toe kick…but Jessica was looking for it and blocks it!
Jessica smirks at Alzy, who looks partly impressed, but mostly frustrated, that Jessica figured him out so quickly. Alzy hangs out helplessly until Jessica shoves his foot back down into the mat. Alzy then tries to sucker punch her while she’s not looking, but Jessica blocks this as well, ducking it and getting behind Alzy. Alzy whirls around, but is met with a big right hand from Jessica. Jessica connects with a second, then a third right hand, sending Alzy reeling into the ropes. Jessica comes after him and Irish whips him into the opposite corner. She then charges at the rebounding Alzy with a diving shoulder block. Alzy is knocked down and Jessica pops up, posing for the cheering crowd.
Wayne: Jessica is really handing it to Alzy.
Allie:It looks like she wants to end this quickly.
Jessica quickly moves to Alzy’s legs and picks them up, clearly going for a Sharpshooter. However Alzy resists and distracts Jessica long enough for Emily to storm into the ring and hit a clubbing blow to Jessica’s neck, knocking her down and freeing her partner. She then retreats quickly back to their corner and grabs the tag rope.
Allie:What the hell? What….why….
Wayne: I think we’re going to see Emily’s true colors come out tonight.
Allie: But what did Jessica ever do to her?
Wayne: Be liked more by the fans?
Alzy gets to his feet as Jessica crawls towards the ropes, intending to use them to help her stand. However Alzy sets up and hits a big kick to the ribs. This action is loudly denounced by the fans as Jessica is flipped over onto her back. It’s effective in that Jessica is now rolling slowly back and forth in the ring, unable to do anything more than groan and hold her stomach. Alzy smirks as he grabs Jessica by the ankle and drags her over to his corner. He then takes one hand off to tag in Emily. Alzy restrains Jessica while Emily comes in and stomps on Jessica’s chest and stomach. Emily makes a stomp to Jessica’s Ankle and leg as the ref gets Alzy out of the ring. This assault to Jessica’s legs continues with Emily place more stomps on Jessica’s ankles and thighs.
Allie: I….can’t….
Wayne: She’s not the perfect girl you thought her to be?
Allie: She’s trying to keep Jessica down. This isn’t like Emily.
Wayne: She is Chris Desmond’s daughter.
Emily eventually relents, posing for the crowd as they boo her. Emily shrugs this off however, as she turns back to Jessica as she gets to her knees. Emily winds back and plows into Jessica with a right hand that sends Jessica reeling. However she comes back with a right hand of her own, striking Emily squarely in the stomach. Emily raises an eyebrow, then strikes Jessica again as she is on one knee. Jessica is forced back, but is on both feet again as she comes back with a right hand to Emily’s face. Emily returns with a third blow, and Jessica reciprocates. The two exchange several more right hands, with neither giving any ground. The exchange appears to be moving in Jessica’s favor, but Emily quickly hits a high knee to stop Jessica’s momentum dead. Emily looks around, smirking to the crowd that disapproves of her so as she drags Jessica over to the corner and tags Alzy in. Emily then holds Jessica up with a weak full Nelson.
Allie:The only good thing I can say about Hellfire is they are working extremely well as a team.
Wayne: Indeed. This is a side of this team that has been needed.
Allie:But why do they have to do this to Jessica?
Wayne: We agree on that at least.
The camera cuts to Johnathan chomping at the bit to get into the match before showing Alzy hit a strong right hand on the defenseless Jessica, knocking her to her knees once more but Jessica hits a right hand, trying to fight back. But its obvious how well Hellfire’s strategy is working. Alzy hits a kick to Jessica, knocking her over, but Jessica seems to have heard Allie and Wayne as she popped right back up. She met a right hand but she returned it. Alzy hits a knife edge chop to Jessica’s chest, but she throws another right hand. Alzy hits another punch, but Jessica has gotten a second wind and starts throwing repeated right hands, eventually sending Alzy into the ropes.
Allie:Jessica is definitely ready to fight back.
Jessica Irish whips Alzy into the opposite ropes, then hits a standing dropkick on Alzy, knocking him off his feet. However this maneuver takes Jessica off her feet as well. She begins crawling over towards her corner, where Johnathan is stretching out as far as he can. Jessica is almost there. But Emily leaps into the ring, intending to intercept Jessica. Emily never makes it out of her corner, but her job is done, as Johnathan is tagged in while the referee’s back is turned. Johnathan storms into the ring to attack Alzy, but Emily retreats to her corner and ref sees Mills in the ring. Since he never saw the tag, he rules Mills back to his corner!
Allie:Oh come on! He’s the one tagged in!
Eventually Mills is subdued and wrestled back to his corner as Alzy gets up and smirks at the crowd. He then nails Jessica with another chest chop, sending her back stepping into a neutral corner. Alzy then raises Jessica up and sitting her on the top rope. He then follows after her, clearly intending to his a Frankensteiner. However Jessica fights back with some right hands to Alzy’s stomach.
Wayne: Here comes Jessica we know.
Allie, muttering: About time.
Alzy is reeling from the blows, but remains on the top rope, even after several punches to the face. Finally however Jessica hits Alzy with a mean head butt and knocks him down to the mat. Alzy stumbles back up relatively quickly, but is met with a top rope tornado DDT for her trouble, laying both wrestlers out on the mat, each in between the other and his/her tag team partner.
Allie:Jessica finally has Alzy down.
Wayne: She needs to get up like….now.
The camera is showing the two legal wrestlers lying on the mat, each trying to come to their senses. Jessica quickly begins her trek over to Mills as Alzy tries to get to his feet. As soon as he does, he sees Jessica get almost within reach of her partner, but Alzy quickly grabs her by the ankle, holding her back. The crowd groans as one, then boos.
Allie:Jessica was so close.
Alzy smirks at Jessica as she struggles to free herself. Suddenly Jessica plunges towards Mills in one last, desperate attempt to tag. Alzy pulls Jessica quickly, causing Jessica to get a faceful of mat. But her hand nicks Mills! Mills is legal and comes running in!
Wayne: Finally! The fresh man storms into the ring!
That Mills does, clotheslining Alzy quickly. Alzy pops back up, but is met with another clothesline. Suddenly Mills changes gears and charges towards Hellfire’s corner, and for good reason—he clotheslines the would be sneak attack right of out Emily’s mind. Mills turns back to Alzy, clotheslines him a third time, and then turns to the crowd, posing quickly and energetically as he gets the fans fired up. Mills turns to Alzy (who is starting to get slowly up to his feet), grabs him in an inverted waistlock as he turns around and throws Alzy in an overhead belly to belly suplex.
Allie:Mills is going to town here. He’s working over Alzy’s back now.
Alzy rolls around on the mat a bit, holding his back as he does so. Mills watches him carefully, then runs against the tops and hits a dropkick to Alzy just as his back is exposed. Alzy holds his back some more as he rolls out of the ring. The ref tries to get Mills to back up. But as the ref is distracted with Mills, Chris runs around the ring, looking to sneak attack Jessica. But Jessica has been keeping an eye on Chris and turns to face him. Chris backs up, his hands in the air like he was only checking on Alzy.
Allie:You know, Chris has been keeping his nose out of this match.
Wayne: Yeah usually by now he’s done something to help his team.
Alzy rolls back into the ring only to be met with a kick to the back. Mills picks Alzy up and drags him to the middle of the ring where he executed a picture perfect snap suples. He then turned around to Alzy’s upper body, sits him up, and executes a surfboard stretch, driving the knee into (and continuing the focus on) Alzy’s back.
Allie:Mills sure is doing a number on Alzy’s back.
Wayne: It’s a good strategy really. If you beat down on the back you ground the man and it very hard to wrestling in the high flying style.
Alzy is clearly in pain as the referee checks him, but he’s nowhere near submission, even as Mills wrenches harder on the back. Alzy appears subdued for a time, but he begins to get a second wind and begins inching his way to his feet. He gets to his knees first, then to one knee. Then just as he has regained his vertical base, Mills switches gears on him, grabbing him under a shoulder and hits a belly to back suplex.
Desmond is shown on the outside of the ring, trying to get the crowd behind Hellfire, but the boos him instead. Mean while Mills is picking up Alzy and whipping him into Jessica’s corner. He makes the tag to the refreshed Jessica, then brings Alzy out to the middle of the ropes, waiting for Jessica to come over and grab Alzy’s other arm. They then throw him into the opposite ropes and charge as one towards him, hitting him with a double spear that lands Alzy hard on his back, working it over even more. The ref then gets Mills out of the ring, but Jessica begins to get confident. Jessica smirks at the crowd, then picks Alzy up into a military press. She tosses Alzy up and sends him sailing to the mat, back first. He arches his back and cringes, but does not cry out in pain. A sharp breath is noticeable, but no screaming. Yet, anyway, as Jessica moves towards Alzy’s legs again, intending to try the sharpshooter aga9in. Alzy fails around, knowing that this will come to no good, but Jessica stands strong, hunched over and stance staggered to keep steady. Suddenly Alzy reaches up and grabs Jessica’s upper body and rolls her into an inside cradle. The referee gets down quickly to count the pinfall.
1……………2……………BREAK!!!
Jessica kicks Alzy off and pops right up to her feet, while Alzy gets to his feet more slowly.
Allie:That was near fall of the match.
Wayne: I think Alzy took her by surprise…she wasn’t expecting a quick roll up in the midst of all that failing around.
‘Apparently not as Jessica was looking at Alzy with a most perplexed and amazed expression. This didn’t last long however as her gaze became angry and she charged at the battered Alzy. Alzy then ducks and hits a drop toe hold on her before hopping over to her upper body and grabbing her in a side headlocks. Jessica quickly gets to her feet from this headlock, backs against the ropes, and pushes Alzy against the opposite ropes. Alzy comes back and runs into a tilt a whirl that might have been an improvised set up for ….Paraguayan Imprint. But Alzy rolled through (after hooking Jessica’s head with his legs) and hits a big spinning head scissor. Alzy gets up at around the same time Jessica gets up to her feet, and he hits a spinning back kick on Jessica, causing her to stop and bend over slightly. Alzy then reaches up, grabs Jessica’s head, and snap mares her over onto the ground. He quickly pops up, then back down with a standing leg drop across Jessica’s throat. He then twists around into the bout’s second pinfall.
1……………2……………KICKOUT!!!
Wayne: Another near fall from Alzy!
Alzy gets to his feet, but it is clear that he is winded from that quick combo. However he’s in a better state than Jessica, who is struggling to get back to her feet. Soon she figures it’s better to crawl over to Mills and tag him in. Alzy intercepts her, grabbing her and dragging her back to the center of the ring. He then picks up one leg, grapevines it with his legs, and sits down in a leg lock.
Allie:It looks like Alzy is trying soften Jessica up for Emily’s finisher.
Alzy pulls and wrenches at Jessica’s leg, causing her to scream in pain. However she does not submit. Eventually Mills gets fed up and rushes into the ring, kicking Alzy off. However Emily comes in to intercept Mills, which results in a brawl in the ring as the referee loses control. Alzy gets up and attacks Mills from behind, resulting in a double team on Mills while Jessica recovers. Emily and Alzy beat down on Mills and eventually double clothesline him out of the ring. They then turn their attention to the ref, who is trying to get Emily out of the ring (but to no avail). Emily grabs Jessica from behind as Alzy moves to a corner and begins climbing it from inside the ring. Emily then jumps from behind, takes her knees, and drives them into Jessica’s back as she pulls her back in a lung blower, holding her there as Alzy reaches the top rope. Alzy then jumps off in a moonsault, hitting Jessica squarely with it and enhancing the damage because of Emily’s back cracker.
Allie:Wow…that’s a double-team maneuver to be proud of.
Emily smirks and rolls out of the ring to attack Mills as Alzy hooks a leg and covers Jessica.
Wayne: This could be over right here!
1……………2……………BREAK!!!
The referee is grabbed by the ankle and pulled outside the ring. Mills looks like he’s having a few words for the referee about how Jessica is being treated when Chris charges, looking to get a sneak attack on Mills. Instead the referee is pushed into the barricade, knocking him clear out. Suddenly as if all four competitors have a sixth sense as to when the ref is knocked out, they all get more sinister looks on their faces (some more than others). Jessica stumbles to her feet as Alzy smirks and rolls out of the ring and towards the announce table. Meanwhile Emily and Mills are brawling on the outside, exchanging right hands on the foot of the ramp.
Allie:Oh my…this match has just lost all order!
Wayne: You know what time it is, don’t you Allie?
Allie:What time is it?
Wayne: Its time for the blood to be spilled.
As Wayne sways this, Alzy takes a steel chair from the timekeeper and slides it into the ring (and him after it). Mills then Irish whips Emily into the steel steps, slamming into them hard, shoulder first. In the ring Alzy picks up the steel chair and raises it high about his head, having evil intentions with it. However Jessica springs into him with a superkick, causing him to drop the chair as he falls to the mat. Jessica then picks it up herself. On the outside, Emily is getting as Mills stalks behind her. Emily stands up and Mills grabs her in a waist lock before throwing her over his shoulder with a German suplex, sending Emily’s back and neck into the hard, stiff floor. Back inside the ring Jessica bangs the chair down on the mat as she waits for Alzy to stumble back to his feet. Alzy gets to his feet, staggers around a bit, then turns groggily around into a vicious chair shot from Jessica.
Allie:That was a chair shot and a half from Jessica!
Jessica just smirks down at the prone figure of Alzy, who appears to have a slight laceration in his forehead.
Wayne: Look blood!
Allie:You’re weird.
Emily is struggling to her feet as Allie says this, but Mills grabs her head and slams it into the ring apron. Emily recoils, leaning against the ring but Mills grabs her and whips her into the ring post face first. Mills grins as Chris starts towards, then stops thinking it’s not a smart idea while keeping an eye on the ref. However he seems even frailer than most as he is still not stirring.
Allie: Damnit we need a new referee out here.
Emily crawls over to the barrier and tries to pull herself up as Mills stalks over to her. Mills slams her head into the barricade, causing Emily to stumble back into the ring apron. The camera shows that Emily is now bleeding from the forehead as well. The scene then cuts to in the ring, where Jessica has picked up Alzy and deposited him in the corner with Alzy’s back to the ring. Jessica then puts the chair down on the mat a few strides away from Alzy before going over to him and grabbing his head as if to snap mare him. She then runs forward onto the turnbuckles, pushing off of them into the air and turning to fall into the steel chair, driving Alzy’s already bleeding face into it.
Wayne: Oh that won’t feet good in the morning.
Mills goes to hit Emily in the face, but Emily blocks and punches Mills, fighting back. She hits a second, then a third. She then Irish whips Mills shoulder first into a set of steel steps of her own. She glances over at the prone figure of the ref (who is being watched closely for signs of life by Chris), then digs under the ring for something.
Allie:This can’t be good.
Wayne: What is Emily doing?
As they ponder what Emily is searching for, Jessica picks up the lifeless form of Alzy up and picks him up as if for a fallaway slam, positioning herself near the chair. She then seems to be trying to his the Paraguayan Imprint onto the chair. But Alzy springs to life and reverses into an Aero Cutter onto the chair! Now both legal wrestlers are down for the count. On the outside Emily finds what she was searching for…a spike!
Allie:What the hell is she going to do with that?
Wayne: I feel like we’re seeing an even darker, more deranged Emily than ever here.
Emily grins sadistically at Mills as he begins to stand up. She then goes over to Mills and hits him with a left hand (she’s holding the spike with her right hand). Mills reels, leaning back over the steels steps. Emily hits a left hander knife edge chop, sending Mills leaning once more. However when Mills returns to his upright position this time, his forehead meets the point of that spike Emily jams into his forehead. The whole crowd boos (and cringes) at this.
Allie:Oh my god! Now Johnathan is bleeding, for sure…and probably profusely!
Sure enough the camera shows Johnathan Mills bleeding from his forehead, drops trickling down his face even faster before he collapses down to the floor. Emily, who is not exactly clean faced, grins evilly, Chris Desmond wants in on this and grabs a chair then seeing Emily has things under control backs off, putting the chair down. Emily gives her dad a look that says she has it. Emily starts to go back to Mills but he feels a presence behind her. She turns around and sees the referee begin to stir. Nodding slightly to herself through her crimson mask, she hides her spike back under the mat.
As the referred begins crawling slowly into the ring, Mills has got back to his feet. Emily had gone over to her dad to talk to him, and Mills sneaks up and when Emily turns around Mills land a solid right hand. Chris pushes Mills back, ready to get in on the action but the referee is yelling at him to not do it. Chris backs off but not happy about it. The referee turns back to the ring and goes towards the two prone figures in the ring and try to moderate this violet situation. The two figures of Jessica and Alzy began struggling to find their vertical bases. Alzy is the first to find it, and he uses this advantage to raise a hand to his face to see if he is bleeding. Jessica is up shortly thereafter and conducts the same test (finding the same results). The two of them look at each other through the blood and smirk evilly at each other. Suddenly Jessica springs up and forward with a superkick!
Allie:Jessica is going to take Alzy’s head off!
But Alzy ducks it! He then grabs Jessica for an Aero Cutter. However Jessica pushes Alzy around, sending him sailing into the ropes. On his way back Jessica hits a big powerslam! The ref crawls over to where Jessica has covered Alzy and makes a slow count.
1……………2……………KICKOUT!!!
Allie:How did he kick out of that?
Wayne: I don’t know but what is Jessica going to do?
Jessica staggers up to her feet then yells at Alzy through her bloody facemask “Get up!”. Alzy seems to listen, as he begins stirring and pulling himself up using the ropes. He holds on to the ropes, even after getting to both feet. Tentatively he legs go and turns around, right into a modified sidewalk slam position. Jessica quickly twirls Alzy around, hitting the move perfect despite the fatigue that must surely be racking her body. She quickly falls onto Alzy, unable to hook a leg.
1……………2……………3!!!
Emily had tried to get to the ring to break the cover, but Johnathan grabbed her leg, pulling her away.
Anne: Here are your winners…..Jessica Tendonin and Johnathan Mills!
As Mills and Tendonin got to their feet, Mills pulled Jessica into an excited hug, and kissed her on the lips. A shocked rustle went through the arena, and then, a few seconds later, Carry Me by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds hit the PA system. The audience popped as Jessica’s husband, Lucius, ran down the ramp. Sliding into the ring, he said “Not again, Mills!” but was hardly heard. The scene looked volatile until the trio left the ring together a moment later.
WINNERS: JESSICA TENDONIN AND JOHNATHAN MILLS
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Big Gun by AC/DC hit the PA system and the crowd cheered. A few seconds later, the SCW North American Heavyweight Champion emerged onstage. He wore the belt around his waist, visible under his glowing jacket. As the crowd applauded, he began making his way to the ring. Sliding into the ring, he caught a mic that was tossed to him and signaled for his music to be cut.
Rich Anderson: I know we’re about to go off the air here, but I’m about to freaking pop! I can’t take it anymore. I demand that whoever attacked me several weeks ago come out here and explain themselves!
Allie Queen: We still don’t have any idea who is responsible! Maybe we’ll get some answers here!
Wayne Miller: He accused Jessica Tendonin a few weeks, but she swore she wasn’t behind it. Wait, what the?
The Titantron came to life with text on it.
SCW North American Heavyweight Championship…Defend it…against me!
Allie Queen: What…?
Wayne Miller: Oh, don’t fall for it, Rich…you don’t know who it is! It could be anyone!
Rich Anderson: Stop this nonsense and come ask me face to face!
The words on the Titantron changed.
Accept my challenge, and I will reveal myself…
Rich Anderson: NO! YOU COME OUT HERE RIGHT NOW!
Accept my challenge.
Allie Queen: My gosh, who is it?!
Wayne Miller: Wait a minute! No way! I am getting reports from my backstage people and they claim they saw P-
The crowd was cheering in excitement and suspense, waiting to see what would happen. Rich then swore.
Rich Anderson: GOD DAMMIT! I ACCEPT! I ACCEPT, OKAY?! NOW BRING YOUR ASS OUT HERE RIGHT NOW, DAMMIT! SHOW ME WHO YOU ARE SO I CAN PUT YOUR ASS THROUGH A TABLE AT TLC!
Wayne Miller: No! Don’t do it, Rich! It’s him! He’s back!
Passive by A Perfect Circle began playing over the PA system, and the crowd snapped into an uproar of excitement as they remembered the music. Fog filled the stage area and the lights went out, to be replaced by white and blue spotlights over the stage. A large figure then appeared in the fog, and the fans reached up trying to touch him.
Allie Queen: WAIT A MINUTE!!! IS THAT-
Wayne Miller: IT IS! IT’S HIM! DAMMIT, HE’S BACK!!!
The fog began thinning and after a moment, the figure was clearly seen. A man who hadn’t been seen in SCW in nearly a year. Former SCW Alternative Champion, Priest, stood on the stage, a wide grin on his face as he stared down to the ring at Rich Anderson who was still looking angry.
Allie Queen: PRIEST HAS RETURNED TO SCW!!!
Wayne Miller: AND HE’S GOING TO TLC TO CHALLENGE FOR THE SCW NORTH AMERICAN HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP!
Allie Queen: MY GOD, NOBODY SAW THIS COMING!!!
Wayne Miller: TLC IS GOING TO BE INSANE! THAT’S ALL THE TIME WE HAVE TONIGHT, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN! SEE YOU IN LONDON AT THE WEMBLEY STADIUM!!!
The feed faded to the SCW logo, and then to nothing.

The SCW Commentary Team is shown now, Allie Queen and Wayne Miller.
Wayne: Live from the Prudential Center, this is Overdrive 47! And we’ve got an awesome show tonight!
Allie: Paige Lewis in action for the first time since defeating Alzy Hawkshaw at Spring Meltdown, over three months ago!
Wayne: And against the Wrath of the Desert, Fury!
Allie: And in the main event, we have Brian Kennedy facing Jonathan Mills, who debuted here in SCW with a shot at the SCW Alternative Championship!
Wayne: Wait, we’ve got someone coming out now!
Big Gun by AC/DC hit the PA system and the crowd cheered. A few seconds later, the SCW North American Heavyweight Champion emerged onstage. He wore the belt around his waist, visible under his glowing jacket. As the crowd applauded, he began making his way to the ring. Sliding into the ring, he caught a mic that was tossed to him and signaled for his music to be cut.
Rich Anderson: So, here we are, in Newark, New Jersey for SCW Overdrive 48. SCW Physicians have told me I should be at home, resting up. But I can’t do that. No. I want to know who had the gall to attack me from behind a few weeks ago. So, which one of you cowards in the back was it? Come on out, and face me, face to face!
The crowd rustles, but the stage remains empty.
Allie Queen: The way it should be, face to face!
Wayne Miller: Rich not taking this lying down, and I respect it.
Rich Anderson: It figures, you can attack me from behind, but can face me straight up. I’ve done a bit of research, and I have an idea of who it was. This person has a pending shot at this championship. Perhaps instead of waiting their turn, they wanted to take me out, so that this championship would be held up. Jessica Tendonin! Come out here and tell me to my face why you attacked me from behind at Overdrive 47!
The crowd popped with shock at the accusation.
Allie Queen: What is he talking about?! Jessica Tendonin isn’t even scheduled to be here tonight.
Wayne Miller: She does have a pending shot at the belt, though. Makes you wonder. I’ve gotta say, calling out the International Heavyweight Champion takes balls, though!
Rich Anderson: It figures, you stay back there like a cowa-
Party Monster by The Weeknd began playing through the arena audio system as the crowd exploded..
“I’m Good, I’m Good, I’m Great!”
After a few seconds, Jessica Tendonin walked out onto the stage, the SCW International Heavyweight Championship around her waist. She stood there for a moment, raising both arms above her head, posing for the fans who cheered her. Jessica then began walking down the ramp, slowly lowering her arms.
Jessica reached the ring and stood for a moment, looking around at the arena. Basking in the cheers, Jessica smiled as she climbed into the ring. She walked to the nearest turnbuckle and climbed it, posing for the crowd. Jessica unhooked the belt from her waist and held it in the air.
Jessica jumped down from the second rope, and turned to Rich Anderson as her music died down. Someone handed her a mic.
Jessica Tendonin: Rich Anderson…SCW North American Champion. First of all, I don’t think I formally congratulated you on your win. Congratulations.
Rich Anderson: Thank you!
Jessica looked at Rich sharply before continuing.
Jessica Tendonin: Now, let’s get down to bidness. While it’s true that I have a shot at that championship, you’re forgetting something very important.
Rich Anderson: And what would that be?
The North American Champion took a step toward the International Champion.
Allie Queen: Rich looks ready to go here, and if these two start going at it, I don’t think even Mr. Walker could pull them apart.
Wayne Miller: Man’s gotta do what he’s gotta do!
Jessica Tendonin: I have been, the SCW World Heavyweight Champion, International Heavyweight Champion, North American Heavyweight Champion, and the SCW Alternative Champion. They call me the most decorated woman in this company’s history, that’s an understatement. The fact is, I’m the most decorated person in this company period, male or female. The the nearest competitor is my husband, with three championship reigns. I have held every singles championship in this company.
If I wanted to kick your ass, I wouldn’t need to attack you from behind. If I wanted your championship right now, I would not need to attack you from behind. I did not attack you a few weeks ago. In fact, I wasn’t even in the building. I was at home with my family. So, I don’t appreciate this accusation.
Rich Anderson: And what if I say I don’t believe you?
Jessica stepped closer to Rich, and looked down at him, right in the eyes.
Jessica Tendonin: Then, I’d say I really don’t give a flying-
“Fuck Being On Some Chill Shit!”
0 to 100 by Drake hit the PA system and the crowd popped. A moment later, Terel Walker came out on stage, holding a mic. He wore a dark blue suit with a gray tie as he looked around the arena. Then, he began walking down the ramp. Reaching the ring, he climbed in quickly and signaled for his music to be cut.
Mr. Walker: Okay, okay, okay. Let’s slow this all down. First off, let’s get some breathing room; both of you, take a few steps back, close your eyes, and take a deep breath. Alright? Yeah….woosa…
The pair of champions looked at each other, and then at the man who signs their paychecks and stepped back.
Mr. Walker: Alright. So, first things first. Welcome to the show, both of you. Haven’t seen you two in months. As for this attack on Rich Anderson, Mr. Anderson, have you got any proof of who attacked you, be it Jessica or anyone else?
Rich Anderson: No, I don’t, but-
Mr. Walker held up a hand.
Mr. Walker: Then, I can’t have you harassing people. We have a philosophy in this country. Innocent until proven guilty. I’ll have to insist that this accusation against the International Heavyweight Champion be rescinded until such a time that proof to the contrary arises.
The pair locked eyes for a moment. Then, Rich nodded.
Rich Anderson: I’m sorry, Jessica. But don’t get too excited, because if I find any evidence-
Mr. Walker: You will bring it directly to me, and I will deal with the guilty party accordingly.
Rich Anderson: Yeah…whatever…
Allie Queen: Mr. Walker putting his foot down, and Rich doesn’t look happy about it.
Wayne Miller: This ain’t the hill to die on.
With that, the SCW North American Heavyweight Champion dropped his mic and rolled out of the ring, walked up the ramp, and went back stage. Mr. Walker turned to Jessica.
Mr. Walker: Jessica.
Jessica Tendonin: Terel.
Mr. Walker raised an eyebrow at the International Heavyweight Champion.
Allie Queen: Calling the boss by his first name. Brave!
Wayne Miller: These two go back like a punch.
Mr. Walker: Bring your wrestling gear next show.
The crowd roared now with excitement.
Allie Queen: Jessica Tendonin in action at Overdrive 49!
Wayne Miller: But against who?!
Jessica began laughing as she dropped her microphone and exited the ring. The laughing continued up the ramp. In the ring, Mr. Walker began laughing as well as the scene went to commercial.
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, our opening bout of the evening is scheduled for a single fall. Introducing first, from London, Ontario, Canada, he is the No Limits Phenomenon, Alzy Hawkshaw!
Raining Blood by Slayer plays as the lights start flashing red. Alzy Hawkshaw walks out onto the stage, and paused before making his way to the ring.
Allie Queen: Alzy Hawkshaw takes on SCW newcomer Larissa tonight, and he’s definitely going to be looking for a win, after being bested by Brian Kennedy at the last show.
Wayne Miller: Brian Kennedy was given a challenge by Mr. Walker to impress him, if he wanted a shot at Paige Lewis and the gold. Beating Alzy Hawkshaw was impressive. Tonight, he has another chance to impress the boss.
Alzy circled the ring as his music died down.
Anne Carpenter: And his opponent, from Shanghai, Larissa!
Larissa came out on stage and stepped onto a pedestal. It began rotating slowly while she held her hands up in the air. After a few revolutions, it slowed to a stop and Larissa stepped off and began making her way to the ring. Coming down the ramp, she removed a compact mirror and began admiring herself.
Allie Queen: Larissa seems to be a big fan of Larissa.
Wayne Miller: She’d better get serious quick. Once that bell rings, Alzy means business! We’re talking about the man who took Paige Lewis to the absolute limit back at Spring Meltdown. So many times, it seems like he had her finished!
The bell rang and the pair met in the center. Alzy threw the first punch, catching Larissa off guard. She staggered backwards, and then ducked a clothesline.
Allie Queen: Alzy fires the first shot, and it connects! Oh, and a miss!
Wayne Miller: And the legsweep.
Larissa had taken Alzy down with a Leg Sweep, but the Canadian quickly rolled back to his knees. Alzy then dodged a kick, and stood up. Grabbing Larissa by the hair, he yanked her backwards, sending her to the mat. Alzy followed up with an elbow drop, but Larissa rolled out of the way.
Allie Queen: We talked about matches these two have been involved in recently, but who knows what the future holds. We know Hellfire is still angling for a shot at the Tag Team Championship. Where would you say Larissa has her sights set?
Wayne Miller: Hard to say as we’ve only recently met her. Maybe she has her sights set on the Alternative Championship. Perhaps the International Championship. It’s really up in the air right now.
Both wrestlers were back on their feet now, and Larissa caught Alzy in the midsection with a kick. A kick to the side of the head sent Alzy to the mat, where Larissa tried to apply an armbar, but Alzy broke it up.
Allie Queen: Early submission attempt from Larissa, but Alzy easily fights it off.
Wayne Miller: Alzy doesn’t look happy about that armbar!
Larissa got to her feet and when Alzy was standing, he took her down with a Clothesline. Alzy the dropped to his knees and rolled Larissa up.
Allie Queen: Pin by Alzy!
Wayne Miller: Wait! He’s holding her tights! Ref doesn’t see it!
The referee got down on the mat and began counting.
1……………2……………3!!!
Allie Queen: It’s over, Alzy Hawkshaw steal a win here tonight!
Wayne Miller: The ref didn’t see him holding onto her tights, the count is official!
As Alzy slid out of the ring, Larissa argued with the referee, trying to tell him that Alzy was holding her tights. The referee kept pointing to his three held up fingers.
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of this match, Alzy Hawkshaw!
Alzy sneered as he walked backwards up the ramp.
WINNER: ALZY HAWKSHAW
Backstage, Jenna Carson is standing by with one of SCW’s newest signees, Miranda Jones.
Jenna: Miranda Jones, thank you for joining me here. At Overdrive 47, you picked up a win over Larissa, starting off here in SCW with a win. You’re not booking to compete tonight, but there are surely lots looking forward to your next match.
Miranda: It was exciting to compete in my first SCW match. Toppling Larissa in my first match was exciting. This is all just…exciting!
Jenna: As we just saw, Larissa has just fallen to Alzy Hawkshaw. There was a possibility that you may have been booked against her again tonight, but Mr. Walker put Alzy in action instead. How would you have felt about facing her again?
Miranda paused for a moment before replying.
Miranda: If that was how it happened, I think it would have been interesting to face her again. See what we could learn from each other this time. Who knows, I may have come up short.
Jenna: What are your goals here in SCW?
Miranda: I want to earn myself a shot at the North American Heavyweight Championship. I will work hard to earn it, though. I don’t want it handed to me. I know it will be hard work, and I’m prepared for that.
Before Miranda could continue, SCW Hall of Famer, and SCW International Heavyweight Champion, Jessica Tendonin walked into the frame, the championship over her shoulder.
Jessica: Miranda…nice to see you again.
Jenna: Wait…you two know each other?
Miranda: Jessica and I both worked for EWC at the same time.
Jessica: I saw your match at the last Overdrive. You’ve been training, I see. Congratulations on your first win.
Miranda: Why thank you, ma’am!
Jenna: Miranda, I guess I don’t need to introduce you two, then. Jessica is an SCW Legend, and has won every singles championship in SCW.
Jessica: I’m also tag team champion by association.
The three women laughed for a moment.
Jessica: I believe I heard you say you were looking to get after the North American Heavyweight Championship?
Miranda: Yes, eventually.
Jessica: I have no doubt you’ll earn a shot eventually. Hard work pays off around here, and is rewarded. If you ever want to spar, or even meet for coffee, call me.
Miranda: I will!
Jessica tousled Miranda’s hair with a smile before walking away. Miranda giggled briefly.
Jenna: Allie, Wayne, back to you!
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, the following non title contest is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, from San Diego, California, weighing in at 180lbs, she is The Wrath of the Desert…FURY!!!
The intro to “Zombie” hits as the fans stand in anticipation. A pyro shoots up from the entrance ramp as Vero walks out to the ramp with a scowl on her face. She begins her slow descent down the ramp with her still not acknowledging the crowd nor making any contact. Once she reaches the end of the entrance ramp, she looks at the crowd around her, surveying her surroundings before running towards the ring and sliding under the ropes.
She heads straight for the upper left turnbuckle and climbs it surveying the crowd without any taunt, like an animal stalking their prey. She then heads towards the opposite turnbuckle and does the same. She descends the top right turnbuckle and does stretches using the ropes as she waits for the bell to ring or for her opponent to arrive.
Allie Queen: Fury missed a step a few weeks back, but in a strange turn of events, she’s taking on the SCW World Heavyweight Champion here tonight!
Wayne Miller: Can you imagine what happens if Fury manages to knock off the World Heavyweight Champion? Only one person has ever done it!
The crowd began rustling excitedly. Anna lifted her microphone.
Anne Carpenter: And her opponent…standing five feet and eight inches tall, weighing one hundred and fifty five pounds, she is a former SCW North American Champion, the only two time world champion in SCW history, hailing from London, England, the Black Princess of London…she is the SCW World Heavyweight Champion, the Dragon Slayer…PAIGE LEWIS!
The crowd exploded as Spotlight by Hot Tag – Media Works hit the PA system. After about ten seconds, Lewis walked out onto the stage, not wearing her signature greatcoat. The SCW World Heavyweight Championship was around her waist as she beamed to the crowd. Lewis turned her back to the ring, swaying her hips a bit before spinning on her heel to face the ring. The woman continued down the ramp.
Allie Queen: The Champion has her work cut out for her, as she takes on Veronica Rodriguez.
Wayne Miller: This match is set to be main event caliber, I tell you. A bonafide legend in the industry taking on a future Hall of Famer.
Halfway down the ramp, Paige stopped and looked on either side of the ramp. A young girl was holding up a sign that said “Hug Me, Paige!” The champion smiled, seeing this and walked over to her, and hugged the girl, making her turn red. The crowd popped as Paige made her way to the ring, and began walking up the steps.
Allie Queen: Paige and her fans have a unique connection. There seems to always be an exchange of affection.
Wayne Miller: Well, she did kinda show up out of nowhere, and shoot to the top. And the people love her.
In the ring, Paige stood in the center of the ring and danced a bit to her music, moving her head, hips, and clapping her hands. The referee was checking Fury for weapons as Paige’s music died down, and then came over to check the champion.
Allie Queen: I don’t envy the referee in this encounter.
Wayne Miller: We’ve seen a vicious streak out of Paige as of late, but we know Fury is a bit twisted as well.
The bell rang and the pair of women stared at each other for a second before charging at each other. Both stood five foot eight inches, but Fury had almost thirty pounds on the champion. Whereas Fury charged all the way to the center of the ring, Paige literally threw herself at Fury, taking her down.
Allie Queen: The Champion gets the first take down!
Wayne Miller: Off the cuff moves like that will keep any opponent on their toes.
Paige was back on her feet first, but Fury was not far behind. Paige took an elbow strike to the face, staggering her backwards. Fury then tackled the champion to the mat and began slamming her head into the mat until the referee got to a count of 4.
Allie Queen: Fury knows that getting disqualified here is not the way to go.
Wayne Miller: Obviously, the power and experience edge go to Fury, but we’ve seen Paige overcome amazing odds in the past.
Paige got to her feet and Fury charged at her, going for a Clothesline, but Paige countered, hooking her outstretched arm with her own, and then catching Fury’s other arm with her legs for a Crucifix takedown.
Allie Queen: Nice crucifix by the champion!
Wayne Miller: Everchanging repertoire of moves by Paige will make her a truly versatile champion for some time to come.
Paige got to her feet quickly and grabbed Fury by the hair, yanking her up. Paige jumped up vertically, and landed on Fury’s shoulders, and leaned backwards, going for a Hurricanranna, but Fury kept her footing.
Allie Queen: Fury with a counter there, and this is not the position Paige wants to be in.
Wayne Miller: No, it’s not and – oh shit!
In the ring, Fury drove Paige head first into the mat, and held onto her, and repeated the action a second time, followed by a third. The crowd roared with disapproval as Fury released Paige. Fury went to apron as the dazed champion struggled to her hands and knees. Fury launched herself to the top rope, and then into the ring. Fury nailed Paige with perfect precision, driving her face into the mat, busting her open.
Allie Queen: Fury is really taking it to champion! Paige has been busted open by Fury.
Fury picked the dazed Paige up, and shoved her head between her thighs. Fury then picked Paige up in the Powerbomb position, and drove her downward, sticking her knee out, and sending Paige into it.
Allie Queen: That’s hard to watch. My god.
Wayne Miller: Ladies and gentlemen, if you’re just joining us, what you’re seeing, along with us here in the arena, is something that we’ve never seen before. Paige Lewis is being completely and methodically taken apart by Fury!
Fury rolled Paige onto her back and covered her.
1………2………KICKOUT!!!
The crowd popped as Paige kicked out, but Fury stayed on the attack. The veteran dragged the champion across the ring to a corner, and began stomping her upper body. The referee began his count and Fury backed off at 4 again. Fury yanked Paige up out of the corner and whipped her across the ring. Paige tripped and fell to the mat, halfway across the ring.
Allie Queen: Fury is absolutely decimating our World Heavyweight Champion!
Wayne Miller: If you’re backstage watching this, you’re thinking to yourself, Fury has arrived in SCW, and even Paige Lewis is having trouble.
Allie Queen: If fury is beating Paige Lewis down like this, what chance does anyone else stand against her?
Wayne Miller: I can think of a very select few who wouldn’t be in this position against Fury right now.
Fury stalked Paige from behind as the champion struggled to get to her hands and knees. When she got to her feet a moment later, Fury grabbed her head from behind and drove her downward to the mat.
Allie Queen: WRATH OF THE DESERT!
Wayne Miller: Paige Lewis’ perfect record for 2018 is in danger right now!
Fury quickly hooked Paige’s leg and pinned her. The referee hit the deck and began counting.
1……………2……………KICKOUT!!!
The audience roared with excitement as the referee held up two fingers.
Allie Queen: SHE KICKED OUT! PAIGE LEWIS KICKED OUT!
Wayne Miller: Calm down before you have a heart attack!
Fury stood up, and pulled Paige to her knees. Then, Paige reached up and grabbed Fury’s hair, yanking the veteran onto her shoulders. Then, Paige took Fury to the mat with a Fireman Carry Takedown, and floated over her to hook her leg for a pin. The crowd cheered as the referee began counting.
Allie Queen: Paige is about to steal one!
Wayne Miller: There’s the count!
1……………2……………KICKOUT!!!
Allie Queen: Fury kicks out!
Wayne Miller: This was a mere heartbeat from being over, ladies and gentlemen!
Allie Queen: Split second reactions like that are what have made Paige Lewis so versatile. But Fury has still put a beating on the champion here, this match is still very much in her favor!
Paige got to her feet, and was a bit shaky, but she pulled Fury up to her feet and then ducked behind her. Paige wrapped her arms around Fury and went for a German Suplex. Fury locked her legs around Paige’s legs and blocked the move. Paige released Fury, and when she turned around, Paige took her down with a Dropkick.
Wayne Miller: Paige was setting Fury up, but the larger, more experienced woman was able to easily block the German Suplex.
Allie Queen: And it’s good for her that she was able to. We’ve seen Paige do amazing things after a few German Suplex.
Both women are on their feet now. Fury swings. Paige parries. Paige moves in with a kick. Fursy sidestepped her. Paige turned around and took a punch to the face. Paige staggered backwards and and Fury charged at her. Paige dodged and rammed Fury into the ring post.
Wayne Miller: Paige is trying to mount a stable comeback.
Allie Queen: Imagine if these two were going at it for the World Heavyweight Championship?
As Fury staggered out of the corner, Paige moved in and caught her around the middle. This time, Fury couldn’t block the German Suplex. As Fury slammed into the mat, Paige rolled into a corner and stopped in a crouched position. The crowd popped, knowing what was coming next.
Wayne Miller: Paige is in position, and if Fury doesn’t see this coming, it could be the beginning of the end!
Allie Queen: Win or lose, Fury has sent a very clear message to the rest of the locker room! “I can hang with the World Heavyweight Champion!”
Fury got to her feet, back turned to Paige. When Fury turned, Paige shot out of the corner like a cannonball, and collided with fury in the center of the ring. The arena shook as the fans cheered for the World Heavyweight Champion.
Wayne Miller: SPEAR! PAIGE CAUGHT FURY WITH A SPEAR!
Allie Queen: SHE’S GOING UPSTAIRS NOW!
Indeed, Paige was gingerly climbing the turnbuckle. At the top, she gauged the distance before jumping. The Shooting Star Press was a work of art as the Londoner soared through the air. The crowd cheered, sensing the end was near. Paige slammed into the mat as Fury rolled out of the way.
Wayne Miller: At the last damn second!
Allie Queen: Ladies and gentlemen, this was almost over, right there!
Fury crawled over to Paige, and within a few seconds, had her locked up in the Koji Clutch. Paige began struggling, but Fury had it locked in.
Wayne Miller: KOJI CLUTCH!
Allie Queen: And it’s applied masterfully! There is no escape!
Fury had the hold locked in, but Paige was fighting to get out of it. Paige used her legs to leverage herself and rolled over. She was still not close enough to the ropes for a break, and was on her back.
Wayne Miller: That Koji clutch is tighter than a pigs anus! She’d better get to the ropes!
Allie Queen: How the fuck do you know how tight a pigs asshole is?!
Wayne Miller: My cousin grew up on a farm!
Allie Queen: Oh my God, stop talking!
Paige lifted her hips, managing to roll Fury back enough to get both shoulders on the mat. The referee couldn’t see it yet.
Allie Queen: I think Paige is trying to leverage herself into a cover! Smart thinking! Fury will be forced to either be pinned or release the hold!
Finally, the referee saw what was happening and began counting.
1……………2……………KICKOUT!!!
The crowd popped as Fury released the hold and got her shoulder up just before the three count.
Wayne Miller: Paige Lewis forces Fury to release the Koji Clutch!
Allie Queen: What innovation! I have to believe we were seconds away fro Fury putting Paige down for the count!
Fury was back on his feet first. She stalked Paige, and then charged at her when she got up. Paige sidestepped the charging Fury, and when the latter turned, Paige hit her with a Super Kick. Paige quickly covered Fury.
Allie Queen: The British Power! Paige nailed the British Power!
1……………2……………KICKOUT!!!
A roar of excited went up from the crowd as the match continued after Fury kicked out.
Wayne Miller: This a main event quality match, ladies and gentlemen! Both of these women are showing they are at the top of their craft!
Allie Queen: I can’t believe Fury kicked out of the British Power.
Paige got to her feet and dragged Fury towards a corner before picking her up. Fury went for Clothesline, but Paige ducked it and nailed Fury with a German Suplex. The crowd popped as Fury hit the mat. Paige dragged herself to the corner, and to the top rope. The front of her attire was covered in blood, as was most of her face.
Wayne Miller: She’s going for it again!
Allie Queen: Fury dodged it once already, but Paige is determined!
Paige stood atop the turnbuckle, and put her left index finger over her lips, and a hush settled over the arena. And then, the SCW World Heavyweight Champion launched herself into the air.
Wayne Miller: BLACK STAR FALLING!!!
Allie Queen: There she goes!
Instead of flipping once, Paige flipped twice in the air before hurtling toward the mat where Fury was waiting, still dazed. Flesh met flesh and a groan was heard. Paige hooked Fury’s leg, and the referee dropped to his knees to begin the count.
1……………2……………3!!!
The bell rang as the crowd went crazy.
Wayne Miller: That’s it! This one is over!
Allie Queen: Paige Lewis has just defeated The Wrath of the Desert, Fury! Paige Lewis Wins!
Paige rolled away from Fury and lay on her back as Anne began making the announcement.
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, here is your winner, the SCW World Heavyweight Champion…PAIGE LEWIS!!
WINNER: PAIGE LEWIS
As The SCW World Heavyweight Championship was laid next to Paige, she remained laying down. The Arena then went dark as We Can Be Saved by Jeff Beal began playing.
Wayne Miller: Hey! Is that…
Allie Queen: That’s Princess Kiya’s music! We haven’t seen her in ages!
After about thirty seconds, the lights slowly came on, dimly. Then, a figure walked out onto the stage and began walking towards the ring. It was the raggedly woman, now known as Princess Kiya, Paige Lewis’ mentor. The tall woman climbed into the ring upon reaching it. Fury was on her feet now, and the two women locked eyes.
Wayne Miller: Oh no…
Allie Queen: I’d hate to see this go down!
And then, Fury wasn’t alone. The SCW International Heavyweight Champion slid into the ring and stood at her side, staring at Princess Kiya. Fury turned and looked at Jessica Tendonin, shocked to see her.
Wayne Miller: Holy Shit! Jessica Tendonin is the only person to ever defeat Paige Lewis, and she did it after competing in another match earlier the same night. As for Fury, there is no love lost between those two women, either, with issues between their families going back years.
Allie Queen: This smells fishy! What if they all jump Fury right here and now?
Princess Kiya helped Paige to her feet, and handed her the SCW World Heavyweight Championship, and the pair exited the ring, eyeing the two hispanic women in the ring. When they were gone, Fury and Jessica turned to each other. Jessica grinned before backing away and exiting the ring, going back into the crowd.
Wayne Miller: What was that about?!
Allie Queen: I don’t know, but one thing is for sure, they both want what Paige has…the SCW World Heavyweight Championship.
The Cameras fade back in from commercial break when suddenly Sucker Punch by Korn featuring Skrillex blasts over the PA systems and no one has any idea who it is. The Being walks down down the ramp wearing an Mask and a Black hoodie with Black Jeans that go down all the way to the black leather wrestling boots. The being gets in to ring and then signals for a mic and then speaks into the mic testing testing testing. But the voice you can’t tell that if this being is mail nor female the voice sounds almost robotic. But speaks anyways.
????????????: For those of you who don’t know who I am My name is Masked Avenger. For those who want to know who I am it is for me to know and you to find out if and when I am ready to reveal myself. Til then all you in the SCW crowd will bow to me your superior and watch as I slay all my foes and all your so called heroes in the art of wrestling. You can love me hate me hate me I don’t care I am here to do one thing and one thing only and that is cleanse this roster of pretenders. Champions who do not deserve championships. Contenders that think they are the greatest thing in the world when one could simply not comprehend what I am capable of. I have wrestled around the globe and have never got treated with the respect I deserve. That brings me to SCW and this is where I will take no for an answer everyone in the back and most of all you people sitting in the seats will respect me I demand it. And that which I demand will be returned with better matches than you have ever seen here in SCW History.
The Masked Avenger pauses for a moment.
The Masked Avenger: All your minds are corrupt and I am here to Avenge myself and my credibility as a Wrestler and performer. My Message has been set but not yet delivered my intentions will be clear very soon. Until the wait till I make my in ring debut at Overdrive 49. See Ya there!!!
The Masked Avenger drops the mic and Sucker Punch by Korn featuring Skrillex blasts over The PA systems as the crowd boos and Masked Avenger left the ring and walked through the crowd.
Allie Queen: That was bizarre to say the least.
Wayne Miller: SCW is full of characters, I tell you.
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is our main event of the evening, and it is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, he is the number one contender for the SCW Alternative Championship…Jonathan Mills!
Storm by Devin Townsend began playing through the arena sound system, and a few seconds later, Jonathan Mills came out on stage. Rubbing his hands together, he made her way down the ramp. Reaching the ring, he climbed in and nodded as he looked around the arena.
Allie Queen: Mills in his second match here in SCW, after debuting just one show ago, where he won a shot at the Alternative Championship!
Wayne Miller: Yes, and tonight, he has a chance to keep the momentum going. But Brian Kennedy is riding high after taking Alzy Hawkshaw down.
Mills paced as his music faded.
Anne Carpenter: And his opponent, from Canton, Ohio, he is one half of the SCW World Tag Team Champions…Brian Kennedy!
As the rhythm picks up after around a minute of music plays and the words start to work its way through the arena the lights cut out and a spot light shines at the top of the ramp. Brian is seen standing there with a smile, in his hand is a 20 lb sledge hammer.
He had alot to say.
He had alot of nothing to say.
(We’ll miss him. 2x)
He had alot to say.
He had alot of nothing to say.
(We’ll miss him. 2x)
(We’re gonna miss him. 2x)
So loooooong!
Fire shoots out from the stage. Smoke rises from the stage as he starts to walk toward the ring. He stops about Half way to the ring as he flexes in front of the camera kissing his sledge hammer. He smirks in to the camera yelling snide remarks.
We wish you well.
You told us how you weren’t afraid to die.
Well so looooooong.
Don’t cryyyyy.
Or feel too down.
Not all martyrs see divinity.
But at least you tried.
He climbs up the steps and turns toward the crowd and taunts them by flipping them off and girls scream his name. He stops and turns back towards the crowd and jumps over the top rope and stands in the middle of the ring, he looks around and drops the sledge hammer and flexes as the flashes flow throughout the arena.
Standing above the crowd
he had a voice that was strong and loud.
(We’ll miss him. 2x)
Ranting and pointing his finger
at everything but his heart.
(We’ll miss him. 2x)
(We’re gonna miss him. 2x)
No wayyyyyy
to recall
what it was that you had said to me,
like I care at alll.
But he was sooo louuud.
You sure could yell.
You took a stand on every little thing
and soooo louuuuuuuuud.
You, could be, the one, who saves, me from, my own, existence.
He climbs all the turnbuckles yet again doing a pose with his arms spread out wide from each one as the music fades.
Allie Queen: We’re about ready to get this thing going here, and we know two people in the back who should be watching closely.
Wayne Miller: Oh yeah, Emily Desmond, who is set to defend the Alternative Championship against Mills, and Paige Lewis, who knows she could very well wind up defending the SCW World Heavyweight Championship against Brian Kennedy!
As the bell rang and the SCW World Tag Team Championship was handed to the timekeeper, Kennedy and Mills met in the center. Mills threw the first punch, but Kennedy shrugged it off. The second and third, however, carried a bit more weight and Kennedy staggered backwards.
Allie Queen: Mills firing hard out the gate!
Wayne Miller: Oh calm down.
In the ring, Kennedy fired a few shots back, staggering Mills. Being the smaller of the two, Mills took the hits harder and doubled over after one to the midsection. Kennedy hit Mills from behind with a Double Axe Handle, sending him to his knees. Then, as Kennedy moved to stand in front of Mills, he was struck dangerously low in the gut.
Allie Queen: Mills better watch it! Another shot like that and the referee might get the wrong idea!
Wayne Miller: I’m gonna have to agree there.
Mills took Kennedy down with a DDT, and followed it up with several stomps. Kennedy got to his knees, and blocked a kick from Mills. Back on his feet, Kennedy whipped Mills across the ring. As Mills connected with the rope, he held on. Kennedy grunted before charging across the ring. Mills pulled the ropes down, and Kennedy went tumbling to the floor getting a pop from the crowd.
Allie Queen: Smart thinking there by Mills, as he can buy a moment of breathing.
Wayne Miller: Not if he does that!
Mills had launched himself over the top rope, and struck Kennedy with an Elbow. The pair both hit the floor again in a heap of flesh. As the referee began counting, Mills was stirring.
Allie Queen: If they don’t get moving, and back into the ring, this main event will be over!
Wayne Miller: Ballsy move by Mills, but perhaps not the best time for it.
Mills was back to his feet first, and he rolled into the ring under the bottom rope, and then back out, restarting the count. By now, Kennedy had recovered, and he rammed Mills into the ring post. Mills staggered off the ring post into a belly to belly suplex.
Allie Queen: I bet Mills is regretting taking it to the outside now.
Wayne Miller: Can’t win it from the outside.
Kennedy dragged Mills back into the ring, stopping the refs count at seven. A knee drop to the head of Mills, followed by an Elbow drop kept the SCW newcomer grounded. Kennedy got to his feet and began beating on his check with a roar.
Allie Queen: Kennedy signaling for the end!
Wayne Miller: Mills better watch out!
Mills staggered to his feet, his back turned to Kennedy. The former SCW Champion pounced, moving in like a flash. His hands around Mills’ midsection, Kennedy torqed his opponent into the air, and then back down to the mat. Then, he followed with a second German Suplex, and a third.
Allie Queen: That’s the War Cry!
Wayne Miller: We know what’s coming next!
Mills staggered to his feet, and Kennedy yanked his head to his side, put one of Mills’ arms over his neck. Then, Kennedy lifted Mills vertically into the air. Kennedy took a few steps before turning and slamming Mills to the mat. Kennedy covered Mills and the crowd began counting with the referee.
1……………2……………3!!!
Allie Queen: Kennedy wins!
Wayne Miller: Kennedy looked damn good tonight, I can’t deny it!
Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, here is your winner, Brian Kennedy!
Eulogy by Tool began playing as Kennedy stood and had his hand raised. His SCW World Tag Team Championship was passed to him and he held it in the air. Mills sulked off into the crowd.
WINNER: BRIAN KENNEDY
All of a sudden, the lights go out, after a few seconds they flash several times and in the ring is Curtis with two other masked men. They are beating Brian with massive blows from sledge hammers each of them holds. The two pick Brian up and Curtis comes in with a huge blow to his face splitting Brian open. As his blood flows down his face he spits in Curtis’ face as he is leaning down talking trash.
Allie Queen: What the hell! Every fucking show this shit is happening now!
Wayne Miller:They are beating him like he stole something!
“I’m Good, I’m Good, I’m Great!”
The crowd pops as Party Monster by The Weeknd plays and Jessica and Lucius run down the ramp coming to the aid of Brian.
Allie Queen: Look and here comes Jessica and LT! Brian isn’t as alone as some of the back stage has thought!
Wayne Miller: OH MY GOD IT’S KRONIK!
Allie Queen: Kronik hasn’t been seen in a SCW Ring in Years!
Kronik jumped out of the crowd and hits the ring coming in with a huge spear on Curtis. Jessica came in and hits the first man with her International title knocking that man completely out. LT give a massive Big boot to the second masked man and then picks him up sending him to the outside. The impact can be heard throughout the arena. Kronik and LT checks on Brian as Curtis starts to stir.
Wayne Miller: DEA and Kronik manage to stop this attack, and now, Curtis has gotta be thinking about how bad of an idea this was!
Allie Queen: I think Jessica’s got something for Curtis!
Jessica is stalking Curtis as he gets to his feet she grabs him by the throat, and pumped him into the air, and then slammed him to the mat with a huge One Arm Chokeslam. Brian is getting to his feet and thanks LT and Kronik. Jessica gets Brian’s attention showing him Curtis ripe for the picking. He walks over to Curtis and picks him up. He gives the signal for the War Cry, he hits him with the first two German Suplexes, when he goes for the last he sends Curtis to the outside with the two masked men who are watching with their anger apparent.
The crowd exploded as Spotlight by Hot Tag – Media Works hit the PA system. After about ten seconds, Lewis walked out onto the stage, not wearing her signature greatcoat. The SCW World Heavyweight Championship was around her waist as she beamed to the crowd. Lewis lifted a microphone, and started with a chuckle.
Paige Lewis: Well, isn’t that nice. Kennedy getting his arse kicked yet again. Seriously, what is this, your 5th time getting jumped this year, Kennedy? And you think you’re suddenly somehow ready to face me again? Wake up, and snap out of that dream! Because if you think for one minu-
The titantron came to life, showing Mr. Walker.
Allie Queen: The Champion came out here to tease Kennedy, but it looks like the boss has something to say as well!
Wayne Miller: Oh, I think Paige is about to realize her foot is in her mouth!
Paige turned to look up at the titantron, and frowned. Mr. Walker began speaking.
Mr. Walker: Paige, champ…I’m glad you’re out there, because this announcement concerns you, as well. Now, Brian Kennedy…I told you to impress me. And…you’ve done that. So, at the next pay per view, it will be…Paige Lewis…defending the SCW World Heavyweight Championship…against Brian Kennedy!
The arena went into a frenzy as the announcement was made. Paige looked annoyed, but in the ring, Brian Kennedy was overjoyed.
Allie Queen: After years away, Kennedy is going to compete for the highest honor in SCW again!
Wayne Miller: But the question is, can he get it done!? Lewis has already bested him twice! That’s all for us, folks! Thanks for watching!
Overdrive went off the air with a split-screen of Paige Lewis and Brian Kennedy staring at each other.
