ReAction -- Primetime 8-9-13

[Xion Zeros]

This week's Topics:

• Katie Matthews is revealed as the newest addition to the MisFits prior to Amanda Cortez's "formal" thrashing of Chanel Rodriguez and her allies of INked. What does the Queen Bee Mafia have to say about this turn of events? Speaking of which, where has Tia Brooks been throughout tonight's broadcast?
• Genesis repaid the embarrassment dealt to him by the Straight-Edge Society and evened the score in the Best of Three series between himself and Dean Maddoxxx. CM Punk has vowed that Maddoxxx will bring his A-game for the last round. What does the King of Controversy have to say in response to Punk's message, as well as the events that transpired between himself and Sapphire during tonight's broadcast?
• Sapphire won the Bra and Panties Match between herself and Taryn Terrell, but it were the male GZWA fans who were the real winners tonight when both Divas were stripped down to their undergarments. Where does this rivalry go from here?
• Lise Starr showed AJ Lee first hand what she thought of her public apology with hard slap to the face followed by a Starrstruck super kick, thus shattering their friendship for good. With Lise Starr clearly wanting nothing to do with her, what will be AJ Lee's next move?
• Tyler Storm continues his winning streak with another win over the members of INked. This week he defeated Keri Cruz. Tonight has not been a great night for the members of INked at all. What does the team have to say about the events that transpired here tonight?
• After brutal contest that ended in a draw due to ring-out, Laura Jackson and Paige still have unfinished business. What lengths are these two Divas willing to go to settle the score and prove which of them are the best?
• Raven and Amber Torres' heated rivalry has come to a head now that Raven cheated her way into the Women's Championship #1 Contender Tournament Finals. What does Amber have to say about Raven's actions here tonight?
• Despite the absence of her mentor, Tennel Blade managed to defeat Candy Cane to advance into the Women's Championship #1 Contender Tournament Finals. Was Tennel Blade able to find her mentor to help her celebrate in style after tonight's broadcast?
• After Justice's impromptu tweak to tonight's match that removed Carnage from competing, both Mike Bradley and Danielle Bradley were forced to face Victor Phillips, Leon Torres, and The Enigma in a 2 on 3 Handicap Match. Despite giving the match their all and putting their sibling rivalry on hold for the night, the numbers game allowed their opponents to pick up the win. Many Superstars backstage are under the impression that Leon Torres had no gripes about hitting The Statement on accident during the match. What does The Statement have to say about this turn of events?
• In tonight's main event, both AJ Styles and Mei Long assisted Hano Eiyu in defeating El Arrendajo Ardiente after Christopher Daniels attempted to bullying Referee Earl Hebner into playing into their favor. What is it going to take for Daniels and El AA to stop harassing Styles and Mei Long for good?

(Remember this topic is NOT just limited to these points, newcomers feel free to "react" on the events of this most recent GZWA program and/or introduce your characters in-character if you're a debuting Superstar/Diva and didn't appear in the most recent show results.)

[❤Rose❤]

After her match against Chanel Casey, Laura and Rosé help Amanda back to her locker room. With her injured feet she really almost can't walk anymore and she wines a bit. Each step hurts and she bites her teeth. Damn, being so cocky really brought her in trouble again, but at least she could take the win and so it's ok for her. Now they reach the locker rom and she sits down on a couch. She tucks up her legs and growls a bit. Now Casey, her sister and personal trainer takes her feet in her lap and check them whether they are really bad injured or not. She looks at Amanda and shakes her head.

"Next time you better wear steel capped boots. But you had luck, nothing is broken, just a few bad bruises, but next week it should be ok again."

Amanda feels a bit better as she hears this, but then she shakes her head.

"No way that I wear boots. It's my trademark that my opponents have to kiss my toes and I won't change it. Haha ..."

Casey looks at her and shakes her head, but she knows how stubborn she is and so she doesn't protest. Arguing with Amanda really doesn't make sense. Now Amanda lights a cigarette while Casey starts to massage her feet gently. From time to time she whines a bit.

"But at least I took the win against this stupid bimbo, even if I was injured. I told you that this fucking chick wouldn't be a problem for me and she wasn't. Damn, I hope she learned her lesson now and better stays away from me and the Misfits or her career will end earlier than anybody expects it. The next time I won't be so gentle to her. Next time I'll fuck her up completely."'

Casey shrugs in her cool way.

"You should have done it this time. Would have saved you the time to face her again."

Now Amanda growls. That's really not what she wanted to hear.

"You're right, but I'm honest, I underestimated her a bit. I really thought that it would be easier to defeat such a fucking bimbo. Who could guess that she injures me right at the beginning of a match. But you see, I even can take the win against such people when I can't walk properly. And I also can win without all these jumping moves. So hopefully now everybody knows what it means to mess with the Misfits."

Now Casey holds an ice pack on Amanda's hurting feet and the dark haired girl shrieks.

"Fuck, that's fucking cold ..."

"But it helps you, so you can fight again next week. Don't be such a wimp."

Amanda growls. You can say everything about her, but not that she's a wimp.

"I am no fucking wimp, I think I have proved this in the past and also today at my match. If someone thinks that that he or she can mess with me without getting their asses kicked, then there wrong. Haha, I don't give a fuck even if it's the stupid wannabe champion or any other friend of my stupid sister. I will destroy them all.
Well, now some of these morons might think that this terror should end now and that someone should stop us, but that won't happen. Nobody stops the Misfits and I'm the one who decides when this terror ends."

Amanda laughs in a dirty way and her sister does the same, then the scene fades to black.

[Brandon]

Backstage, Genesis was in a happy and more cheerful mood than he had been. Coming off his payback victory over Dean Maddoxxx. For the fist time since his Television Championship loss, things appear to be looking up for The King of Controversy!

THAT is how you take care of business ladies & gentlemen. What you saw tonight between me and Dean Maddoxxx was a crystal clear message to CM Punk. When you knock Genesis down, you better be sure to knock my ass out cold. Otherwise, I'm going to get back up, dust myself off and knock your ass out cold. Tonight, I flat-lined the Parental Advisory. Watching Dean tap out like Sammy Davis Jr. was a thing of beauty. Now, can you imagine if I were to finish CM Punk off with his own submission hold? Ohhhh! How humiliating will that be for the Straight Edge messiah? haha! 

I look forward to our little pre one-on-one debate before the final battle at Slammiversary, "Phil". Next week, I'm going to finish off your right hand man, Dean Maddoxxx. Then I'm going to finish you off for good and drop the "Pipebomb" of a lifetime. Matter of fact, suffice to say. I've been holding a LOT of things back. Stuff that I've been dying to say and want to do, and I'm holding it all back just for you. See you next week, Punk. ;)

Genesis walks off out of sight, out of mind as the ReAction crew switches to the next superstar and/or diva.

[DΔShΞR]

Amber is showed backstage pacing the floor and knocking things over. Visually upset she sees the reaction crew and tries to calm down.

"My reaction? You guys want a fucking reaction? Nether of those bitches in the finals deserve to be there. I have worked my ass off six years now. Six freaking years, blood sweat tears. sidelined with injuries and a child. This was supposed to be my moment to shine. and this petty bitch just has to come and fuck everything up. From my marriage at home to my well being in this company, bringing up my fathers past actions. Is there no line you wont cross? You took my dream away from me. To finally get what I worked so hard for all these years. My dream of finally standing at the top. But thats ok. I have a new dream now and it involves you and your aspirations here Rae. Watch your back bitch because It isn't I that has anything to lose this time around. It's you."

Amber chuckles and walks away as the scene fades.

[♡☈ɑ√əη]

*It was at the end of Primetime and Raven was seen leaving her lockerroom, cleaned up from her fight and match with Amber earlier. With her bruises covered by make-up and her hair back in its proper place, Raven kindly looked at the ReAction crew sideways as they approached her*

raven| Yeeees?

react| Raven, congratulations on advancing in the #1 contender tournament for the Women's Championship.

*Raven patted herself on the shoulder, flashing arrogant, devilish smile admiring her win and how she did it......no shame in her game*

react| There's been talk on the way you won and how unfai-*Raven immediately cut him off, holding a finger up to his face*

raven| I won. Amber lost. Leave it at that.

*Seeing the cold glare given by Raven and the sternness in her voice, the interviewer cleared his throat and continued.*

react| There has also been talk about the personal information you shared about her life. The line you crossed just to gain an upper hand.

*Raven scoffed*

raven| Again, I'm the villain in this situation? I was telling Amber the truth about her life. Instead of keeping her in the dark like a bastard step child with lies of "Daddy Do Right", I like a true friend shared the truth with her, unlike her own flesh & blood, knowing she could take it like a big girl. Her reaction was just ungrateful. More disrespect on top of what she's given me. But, hey, I'll be the bigger person and forgive her......especially now that I'm one step closer to gold.

*Yep, putting out the delusion of she's right like always, but she knows that her tactics are lower than low and exactly what they're gaining for her and taking away from Amber. This is Rae we're talking about.....she has no problem going lower than dirt for her benefit then sleeping like a baby afterwards.*

raven| She did put up quite a fight, I'll say. And kudos to Morgan for being a good girl staying in her seat. I can't imagine her delight of watching Moi gain a victory up close.

*Raven smiled*

react| Well good luck in your match against Tennel Blade on the next Primetime. Also, your run in with Mei Long the other week....Would you care to share what that was about?

raven| Oh, sweetie. It's not my place to share the personal bidness others. That's just wrong.

*Raven blew a kiss to the camera and giggled as she walked away ending this interview. The camera watches her strut as it fades to black*

[Victor Phillips]

"Before The Night Out"

The scene begins with a shot of Victor Phillips’ locker room door. Not long after, Victor Phillips comes walking out dressed in some “formal-ish” clothing. As he makes his way towards the exit of the arena, he is stopped in his tracks by a GZWA interviewer.

!-Interviewer-!
Victor, thoughts on tonight?

Victor Phillips smiles as he is obviously pleased with the night.

!-Victor Phillips-!
Not much to say about tonight other than, it was a success. I got back into the swing of things tonight and grabbed a victory over the Bradley’s. But the big event of the night was my Rae-baby, moving onto the finals of her tournament. She’s been on a role lately and it’s only going to continue.

Victor makes the motion of a championship belt, seemingly saying he believes Raven will soon be champion.

!-Interviewer-!
Well congratulations to both of you and I do have some questions about both of your matches from tonight. But before that, where exactly is Raven?

Victor Phillips checks the watch on his wrist.

!-Victor Phillips-!
Well I spoke to her a little while after my match and I know she had somethings to handle but after we both wrap up here, we’re meeting up for a little celebration.

The interviewer looks a bit confused as to why the two would be celebrating.

!-Interviewer-!
A celebration? Don’t you think you two are jumping the gun a bit? I mean Raven still has another match in the tournament that she has to win before she can even think about getting a title shot.

Victor shakes his head at the misunderstanding from the interviewer.

!-Victor Phillips-!
My man, you’ve got it all wrong. Raven and I both understand that she still has a few hurdles to jump before she gets to where she needs to go. I just want to keep my Raven’s eyes on the prize. I know she’s been trying to be the honest friend to Amber but it seems like Rae’s honesty is striking a cord with Amber.....

!-Interviewer-!
You don’t honestly believe Rae has been doing what she’s done to Amber out of friendship, do you?

Victor Phillips nods his head

!-Victor Phillips-!
Of course I do, that’s what Raven told me last week and I’ll always trust her word. But back to what I was saying, Raven dealt with the whole Amber situation after beating her to advance tonight. So now we’re going to go and get ready for her match against Tennel Blade. Raven and I both understand that all of these distractions can’t get in the way of our final goal.

!-Interviewer-!
Speaking of you, you also had a match tonight originally against Carnage, Mike and Danielle Bradley. But Carnage was pulled by Justice and it ended up being yourself, The Enigma and Leon Torres against the two Bradley’s. Your thoughts on that?

Victor shrugs his shoulders

!-Victor Phillips-!
It changed nothing about the match, except that it created a built in excuse for those who wanted to see Mike and Danielle pull off a win. I go out there in compete whether the odds are in my favor or not. I mean, I wouldn’t have minded if one of my partners got pulled.

Victor Phillips chuckles as that was clearly directed towards someone

!-Interviewer-!
Well its interesting you’d mention your partners because as I said one of them was Leon Torres. As we just discussed there’s been an issue between you two and your girlfriends. Any uneasiness in teaming with him tonight.

!-Victor Phillips-!
Absolutely not, it doesn’t matter who I team with, I’m going out there trying to win. If his intention was to go out there and get over on me, then that’s his issue. I’m in this for two things, my fans and for gold and I think I sent both Mike Bradley and my fans a message i’m proud of tonight.

Victor rubs his head a bit.

!-Victor Phillips-!
As for that Dashing By, I received....it didn’t bother me. It may or may not have been meant for me, and he may have even enjoyed kneeing my in the face. But my focus is somewhere else right now. But i’ll leave you with this before I have to go....Victor Phillips always makes the Final Statement.

With that said, Victor Phillips rushes out of the arena to meet up with Raven. His focus is clearly on moving back up the ranks here in GZWA. But the simmering issues between Leon Torres and him, clearly are still on his mind.

[Victor Phillips]

"Voicemail To Raven"

We join the scene as Victor Phillips is walking into the parking lot where his limo driver is supposed to be. As he begins walking through the lot, attempting to find his vehicle, he hopes to himself that the driver doesn't make him late. As he continues his search, he places his phone to his face, as he prepares to make a call.

*This is Raven, leave a message after the tone*

Hey Rae, was hoping I’d get you but I guess you’re not by your cell. Sorry that i’m running a little late, but i’ve got a reason. I got caught up with an interview and you know that once I get talking, it’s hard to stop. But I know you had some promo work to do, so hopefully i’m not too late. But we’ll meet up soon, I think i’m about 15 or 20 minutes away, okay. I made some reservations at that place you like, not sure what i’m going to get yet. Afterwards we can go wherever you’d like. We’re going to live it up tonight.

Victor Phillips chuckles to himself

I just wanted to make sure you knew that I was proud of you. You did what you had to do to get the win tonight. I know you’ve been a little pre-occupied with the whole Amber situation but once again you didn’t let it distract you. We already talked about you helping your friend, so you know i’m on board with whatever you have to do. Just remember what we talked about though, remember my little cheesy line, “Our Goal is Gold”...*laughing*. I know I sound like a motivational speaker but that’s my job. We’ve got to keep each other focused, especially because it seems like you’ve got people coming out of the woodworks trying to make you public enemy number one...*cough* Morgan *cough*

But i’ve got your back back, little lady. By the time Slammiversary has come and gone, we’ll be strapping a beautiful belt around your waist. Then you know what, I’m going to make it my business to take that Television belt off of whoever walks out with it. We’re going straight to the top Rae, me and you. But i’m going to let you go, i’ll be there soon...and you know what, I think I know what i’m going to have now. Later

As Victor Phillips hangs up the phone, he finally locates his vehicle. He is greeted by the driver, who opens the door for Victor so that he can get into the car. But as Victor goes to enter the vehicle, he is caught by surprise by......

--To Be Continued--

[Laura Jackson]

The camera came up on Laura Jackson as she played with her phone. She looked up and shrugged.

Laura Jackson
I will give Paige credit  she is a glutton for punishment. I seriously thought no one would be able to take all that but she did however there is one thing that need to be address I wasn't spent when the ten count happened! See unseen by all was that bitch Mariah holding me down to stop me standing up. See she realises that her sister is better and she can't stand it so she decided to screw a member of her group! At the end of the day I won that match and I'm done with Paige! It's time for me to move on so that's what I'll do. Pure and simple! Now piss off I'm done with you.

With that Laura walked off as she played with her phone once more!

[The Bradley Clan]

Mike returns to his locker room, where Christy Hemme and the ReAction crew are waiting for him. He hangs and shakes his head in a mix of emotions.

"Mike, I imagine you're upset with the result of tonight's match. Can you elaborate on what went wrong?"

"Ugh... that fucking bitch Justice... What's she trying to do here? I can't tell if she's trying to help or hurt Carnage, if she's trying to insert herself into the Triple Threat match, if she's trying to sabotage me AGAIN... This is too much to handle. I can't continue this interview..."

Mike heads into the locker room and closes the door slowly.

[Deleted]

In the backstage of the GZWA arena, the reaction crew catch up to AJ Lee, seen walking around in a strange manner while holding her nose, blood dripping from it due to being kicked in the face by her former best friend Lise Starr. Noticing the attention on her, AJ slides her hand across her upper lip and wipes the blood from it, before licking her wrist to taste it. Smirking, she looks to the camera.

"Hey there… I’m guessing you want my opinion and how I feel about me and Lise breaking up. Well then, lemme tell ya. In fact no, let me show you me telling her."

Putting her hand in her pocket, AJ swipes out her cell phone and dials a few numbers on it before putting it up to her ear and waiting some seconds so she can send her message.

"Hey Lise’s voicemail, send this one to Lise for me. Lise...I hate you and I’m going to make your life a living hell. I am going to be around you all the time to the point where you won’t even be able to think about something without worrying about my fist BREAKING YOUR FACE FROM BEHIND! TTFN."

Hanging up after her morbid message, AJ throws her phone to the ground and proceeds to stomp on it, breaking it into little pieces.

"That’s what I think about Lise Starr. She had her chance at being the best with me and she screwed it up. We...were...PERFECT! We could have been on top of the world and she thought it’d be better to just be tied to the wrestling version of George Clooney’s bed! Now I’m alone in my own blood and she has no idea that she’s being made to look like the stupid, pathetic idiot she always was."

With her voice rising in pitch and anger, she slows herself down and straightens her hair back before continuing, with a much calmer tone.

"But that’s okay...I realise now I was never her friend, she was just using me to get what she wanted along, now that she has that, I’ve just been thrown to the side. She’s just the same as all the rest, using me and throwing me away, like I’m Cinderella’s slipper. I should give her a high-five really. In the face. With a chair. Peace out, see you guys in hell…"

Putting on a grey hoodie, AJ pulls the zip and her hood up to cover herself before sliding her hands into her pockets and leaving the area, facing the ground in depressed rage.

[Kayda Erikson]

Tonight had been a busy night for The Crown Jewel, and her mind was all over the place with a mix of emotions. Sapphire was standing by backstage, about to turn on a monitor, when she's interrupted by the ReAction crew.

Sapphire, tonight you finally confronted Genesis and beat Taryn in a Bra and Panties match. With so many things going right, what's next for The Crown Jewel?

Sapphire smiled, flipping her hair behind her shoulder before turning around to face the camera..

Well, I also posted a pretty groundbreaking Tweet if you want to check that out @sapphire613. Other than that, I'm going to go and try to sort out the events that took place between Genesis and myself and go from there. I wasn't planning on having to --

All of a sudden, the monitor off the side turns on, flickering momentarily as it goes to static, getting the attention of both the interviewer and The Crown Jewel and causing the camera to focus on it. After several seconds of the static, three slot machine reels appear, still spinning.



After several seconds, the first reel stops slowly showing a red 7. Not too much longer, the second reel stops, another red 7 appearing. The third reel spins for a little longer than the previous two, but eventually a third red 7 completes the line. Almost immediately, the reels disappear leaving the three red 7s, on the white screen with a woman's laughter being heard in the background briefly before she speaks.

For most people, sieben -- the number seven -- is a lucky number. For anyone in GZWA...

Suddenly, the red sevens slowly become black as if someone had poured black paint over the top of them.

...They will soon fear it. After all, sieben ist meine zahl. Seven is MY number!

She continues laughing, as the now blackened sevens slowly begin to crack from the inside out and fall apart. When the final piece falls, the screen returns to static before the monitor completely turns off. The camera now returning to Sapphire, who had been watching the feed.

Looks like I got someones attention.

She smiles a slightly evil smile, walking away as the camera zooms in on the monitor remaining off leaving those to wonder about the meaning behind what they just saw.

[Heartbreaker]

Backstage, leaning against a wall in the hallways was Lise Starr who had been looking through messages on her phone. Her eyebrow rose when the phone had alerted her of a new message from AJ Lee. She played the voice message on loud speaker and the words of her crazed former best friend played.

"Hey Lise’s voicemail, send this one to Lise for me. Lise...I hate you and I’m going to make your life a living hell. I am going to be around you all the time to the point where you won’t even be able to think about something without worrying about my fist BREAKING YOUR FACE FROM BEHIND! TTFN."

As the message ended, Lise briefly shook her head and placed the phone into one of the pockets of her jeans. Then she started to laugh as she picked up her bag which was placed on the floor. The Primetime crew approached her and she simply shrugged her shoulders.

“It’s sad to see how little Miss April Jeanette lost her mind but what can you do? There are just some people that you can’t help, you know? I don’t care about her anymore, I could say she’s out of my life but AJ wants to make my life hell or in better words – become my stalking, overly attached ex-best friend. Well, bring it on. Throughout my career I have dealt with worse things so I’m not scared of a love-crazed, tantrum throwing school girl. She could pull a Patrick Bateman by getting an axe but not even that would scare me.“

She began to walk down the halls as the cameras followed her and she sighed.

“It sucks that I’ve lost another friend, I have to admit. I mean, we had a lot in common and together we talked about personal things, especially things I have been through in my 25 and a half years of life. You know what? Forget I said anything… She humiliated, violated and hurt me. I can’t let her get away with it all.”

“One thing Lise, I know this is about AJ Lee but what about the Straight Edge Society? Has CM Punk said anything to you? Has he said anything about AJ?”

Lise looked at the camera man who asked the very random question and shot a glare at him.

“Shut up.”

Rolling her eyes, Lise Starr continued to walk and made her way to the car park.

[The Bradley Clan]

Thomas Morning is waiting outside Danielle Bradley's locker room for a post-show interview, but as she approaches, she's in a very bad mood.

"Danielle, your thoughts on-"

"I don't need to talk to you people. This is all you're getting out of me: Justice needs to stay out of my shit, and my brother needs to pick up his game after a performance like that if he has any hopes of keeping that title from me!"

"But what about Carnage not being able to compete tonight? Did that-"

WHAM! Danielle takes the microphone out of Thomas's hand and clubs him over the head with it.

"That just makes my job at Slammiversary that much easier."

She throws the microphone down the hall with all her might and slams her locker room shut.

[❀ℋine 'ea❀]

Suddenly, there is a light knock on the door, catching Mariah's attention.

Standing at the doorway in Mariah's office is the only QBM member that Mariah has left. The Georgia Peach, sporting the same dress and stilettos that she wore during Primetime show. One arm overlapping the other, while her hands grasps onto her elbows. Her look is positive and friendly. A surprising take from her usual expressions on the show whether she is being the typical heel. Her hand leaning closer to her shoulder.

“Hey, girl. How are you?”

Mariah looks up from her paperwork, running her hands through her brunette hair in frustration at all that has transpired over the last few weeks, especially tonight's latest dilemmas.

"I just don't know... I feel like everything is falling apart around me. First, Tia gets herself hurt out there last month, last week we lost Katie without even putting up a fight to get her back from my deranged sister - only for her to align herself with the MisFits. And we still don't know where Tia disappeared to tonight. She's not answering her cell nor returning any of our calls. I feel like they are picking us off one by one and there's nothing I can do. I'm starting to think that this position of power in the company is merely holding me back. What good am I to the rest of you if I'm stuck behind a desk?"

"Girl, stop."

Morgan quickly interrupted with a raising hand. She strolled around office, glancing at the paper rubbish in front of her.

"Girl, I know you've been busy. Looking at you right now, I can see that you are."

Morgan took a pause, leaving her time to sit down in the closest, softest seat she could find, which was easily at the opposite end of Mariah. She slouched her back onto the wood polished splat behind her. One long leg crossing over the other. Her eye contact shifted to her dirty nails, taking out any dirt tucked inside of it. She thought immediately about needing a manicure at one of New York's best nail shops she could find. The thought was simply put on hold to focus more onto the matter at hand.

"I knew they were goin' to change their ways one day. First Tia is in the same cab as Philly Cheesesteak. Now Kat isn't in her right mind, as if she ever had one in the first place. I was too focused trying to defend your little sister lately that I didn't keep our team together. I never noticed how much it was falling until now. The problem was me not regulating that sad ass bullshit sooner."

Mariah sighed heavily, knowing that Morgan was right.

"You shouldn't take all of that blame on yourself. I'm to blame as well. I knew something was off about Katie lately and I didn't look into it when I should have. As for Tia, I still don't know what's going on between her and Phillysteak as you put it, but I'll admit she is making great progress with Tennel Blade. She turned that girl's career around. Who would have thought that she would have wind up in the tournament finals?"

Her voice trails off for a moment before continuing.

"I know it doesn't mean much, but I appreciate that you looked out for Amber out there. Things between her and Raven have gotten a bit too extreme for my taste. I'm scared that she's going to do something rash like Katie too... Amanda has always been a loose cannon, so I have come to grips with her behavior, but I don't want to see Amber go down that path, not that she has a family to for.

Morgan... I just don't know what to do anymore."

"You know what? You go back to keeping your desk together. I'll handle Tia and Kat personally. They certainly need some tough love around here. As for your sister, she is really trying her luck. Testing your power. This has been on more than one occasion since I've been here. When I said I was loyal, I was not trying to be Eddie Murphy and play jokes and shit. I keep my word in tact. I don't care if it's your sister or not, but that bitch needs to know who is boss around here. Apparently, she fails to acknowledge that, SO I'll make sure personally that she gets that shit straight and engraved in her damn brain!"

Morgan gives her body a push with her arms planted on the end of the chair, proceeding to exit in a hasty fashion, nearly stomping in quick speed, but....

Morgan, wait...

Mariah's interruption causes Morgan to stop at her tracks and turn to her friend in confusion.

We'll do this together. Like you once told me, they are my friends too. As for Amanda, I'm just going to show her some tough love like I always have to do one way or another since she never listens to reason.

Morgan smiles back at Mariah, pleased that Mariah uses action to illustrate her position in the federation.

"Yas! That's what I'm saying, too, girl. I wouldn't even care if it's my momma, if she's not doing right, someone needs to talk to her about it. Even if it's her own flesh and blood. Now your sister is doing too much, and she needs to sit her ass down somewhere, and if it takes going against her lesbo club to do it, then so be it. I'm not that type of bitch that's gonna run and shit. I don't care if it's using fists, chairs, or bottles, I'm making sure that the heffa falls like a muthafuckin' tree."

Mariah laughs loudly as Morgan's "unique" choice of words definitely lightened her mood.

"It's always been like this... It's like I'm Charlie Murphy and Amanda is Rick James. We're good until Amanda goes over that line, and I have to check her - with physical force. Apparently, we're going to have to introduce Katie to that concept if I can't talk any sense into her."

"Absolutely. I know everything needs to change right damn now, and trust and believe that it will."

As the two make their way out of Mariah's office, they soon find Kat hanging onto a wall with her parkour athleticism, almost like a spider, staring at her former friends beneath her. She chuckles before leaping to ground level and crosses her arms.

“Well, look who it is...What do you two want, you gonna try and “save” me? Turn me back into a pathetic little girl?”

Mariah steps forward first to confront her, silently insisting that Morgan stays out of this for the time being.

“You were never pathetic, Katie. If there was something wrong, the only thing you needed to do was come to your friends and talk about it. I can’t believe that you looked for the answers that you needed from my misguided sister of all places… Katie, let me help you. It’s not too late.”

Kat takes a step back, almost shielding herself before looking straight into Mariah’s eyes and speaking in a voice almost a tint raspier than her normal one.

“HELP ME? You mean like when I told you about my problems, then when I ran away and broke down, who was there to help me? You? Morgan? Both of you just stared at me and then you were nowhere to be found when Amanda fucking stole me!”

Mariah looked her directly in the eyes, clearly not afraid of this change in her.

“It wasn’t like that, Katie, and you know it. You ran away from me before like you didn’t want my help. I have told you countless times. I’m always here for you when you need it. Don’t be afraid to ask. I… We are your friends. That’s why we started this group in first place, remember?”

Kat rolls her eyes and puts her hands in her pockets, turning around and pacing from side to side while gritting her teeth. Morgan holding her cool over Kat’s rather repulsive attitude.

“First of all, stop calling me Katie. She doesn’t exist anymore. She died when her heart was torn apart too many times. And you can’t be there for her anymore because I don’t need any of you. I don’t need anyone or anything.”

Mariah closes her eyes and clenched her fists tightly at Kat’s words, while Morgan stands there confused, as if she thought that the contract said that her name was Katie.

“It was my fault that Katrina broke your heart… And you can blame me for letting you get caught up in Kristine’s emotional roller coaster that wind up with you getting your heart shattered into pieces again… But if this is about US -- you and me, then you have my most sincere apology. Yes, I’ve known that you have had a crush on me, but I just never thought much of it as I figured it would pass like puppy love. I’m sorry that I couldn’t return those feelings to you that you hold for me - KATIE.”

She empathized saying her name, hoping to reach her within. She added, “You may not ‘need’ us anymore, but the only person you’re lying to is yourself. Everyone needs friends, whether they like it or not.”

Letting out a soft snicker, Kat turns around, avoiding eye contact with Mariah while laughing, hiding a small tear dripping down her cheek. Her voice becomes deeper as she speaks.

“You know...Things could have been great for you, I might have agreed with what you’re saying. Except for one thing…”

Kat turns her head back, looking similar as she once did before her turn to insanity, when she had broken down in front of Mariah. She moves closer, until her forehead touches Mariah’s, where her facial expression changes into a homicidal smirk.

“My world does not revolve around you or getting you to “love” me. I only want one thing from you and your “friends”. To bathe in your blood...”

Morgan takes a step forward ready to land a fist onto Kat’s face, but Mariah holds her back, before sighing again and speaking.

“Did my sacrifice mean nothing to you? Did getting my ribs cracked by that vicious assault from Cheeka that was clearly meant for you mean nothing to you? If you wanted my blood then you should have asked for it when I was coughing it up every morning and night while I recovered after my selfless act. I would have gladly given it to you. Tell me… what is it going to take to bring you back to us?”

Kat licks her lips and retains her grin as she stares intently at Mariah.

“What do you think it’ll take to “bring me back”?”

Mariah looks back to Morgan briefly before sighing heavily and starting to unbutton her top. Morgan showing repulsion over Mariah’s actions. What is she thinking?

“What the f--”

Shouting Morgan is interrupted by Mariah.

“Fine, I’ll give you what you want…”

Kat looks at Mariah’s chest for a moment and turns her head, chuckling before looking back at her face and putting her hand on it, stroking her cheek.

“How cute.”

Mariah removes Kat’s hand from her face, but still firmly grasps her friend’s hand.

“That was just to get your attention. Stop this before we’re all forced to do something that we will regret later.”

Kat leans close, as though she is about to kiss Mariah, only to surprise her by quickly reeling back and slamming her head forward, headbutting her in the face and knocking her to the ground.

“Looks like I just did something I’m gonna really regret, huh?”

Morgan motions to get involved once again, but Mariah holds up a hand to her that she’s fine. She blinked a few times as the blow took her by surprise, but she laughed as she stood back up.

“I have to be honest… I was hoping you would take it this far. I wanted to kick your ass the second you walked into my wrestling school like you owned the place with that goth bitch attitude.”

Kat cracks her knuckles with her hands and smirks.

“You asking me on a date? Oh Mariah, that’s the most attractive offer I’ve ever had. Beating me up’s a tough task though, you won’t be getting that easy.”

Mariah winds up for a punch and Morgan races over to stop her. Her voice delivering in a rather soft tone.

“Hold it! As much as I would like for you to be kicking her ass right now, let’s not forget what position of power you have. Hitting a wrestler will get you demoted, or worse, fired.”

Mariah grits her teeth as she wants to slap some sense into Kat physically and it takes all of her willpower to stop her fist in motion. Morgan grinning back at her with a head shake.

“You don’t have to do that, Mariah.”

Still at a grin, Morgan shifts her focus to Kat standing in front of her. Suddenly, the smile transitions to anger.

“Let me!”

To Mariah’s surprise, Morgan delivers the blow herself, sending Kat to the floor with a right hook to the jaw, adding “Bitch!” in Southern dialect with the impact.

“Good one Peachy...I almost felt it. Shame you had to be the stooge, I would much rather Mariah fought her own battles rather than getting the former stripper to do her shit. You gonna have her throw all your punches, commish?”

“I sure the fuck will!”

Morgan lifts her elbow back, preparing for another jab, but Mariah interrupts, narrowing her eyes and glaring at Kat.

“Fine, I can’t beat the sense into you then I’ll gladly allow Morgan to do it on the next Primetime.”

Morgan feeling satisfied over Mariah arranging a match against for backstabbing ex-friend. Kat rolls her eyes and kips up with little to no effort, rubbing her loosened jaw.

“Weak. But whatever, I’ll take out your lapdog, then I’ll live up to that promise I said last time my boss that I looked up to turned on me, except this time it’ll be on you…I’ll see you two later...”

Putting her hands behind her back, Kat begins to walks away before stopping and turning back.

“You might need a new nosejob by the way, MiMi. It looks kinda off center...”

She chuckles as she finally leaves, leaping across the walls.

Morgan shapes her hand into a fist as the other hand pushes its knuckles, giving them a slight crack.

“It’s on now, bitch.”

[Tyler Storm]

As match the reaction crew catches up with Tyler Storm to get his thoughts.
ReCrew:Tyler can we get your reaction to your win and the after match attack from INked?

TS:INked is nothing more than cowards and sore losers,and they will get what the deserve.Heck it already started with Amanda and Kat laying them out at the start of the show.

Don't you think that it was an unfair attack on INked?With the Vets beating on newbies?

Well considering i am a "Newbie" I don't think it was unfair at all.As a matter of fact I can't wait till I get my hands on them again.They wont be smiling when i lay them both out.I wouldn't mind watching Amanda and Kat beat on them some more.

Why would you want that to happen again?

Well besides them beating the hell out of me a few moments ago,Have you seen how smokin hot Kat is?I could watch her beat on INked for hours.

Tyler smiles and takes a drink of water before continuing.

And besides maybe if they get beat down enough they will come to realize that they wont ever be as awesome as they think they are.You see that it takes TWO of them to take me down.Heck even when its a girl and two guys they still get their butts handed to them.My advice?Go home,get some more tats and try to man up.Because next time you two gangster wanabes attack me from behind like that again I wont be so forgiving.

The scene fades with Tyler pushing the camera out of his face.

What kind of match was that? thought Taryn after fighing tonight in a stupid bra and pantie match.Not to mention her opponent Sapphire was wearing a sumo attire on top of things.She rolls her eyes That was NOT what i signed up to do.Im NOT a eye candy diva. She thinks to herself.But in reality she is one of those divas as nobody has taken her seriously just yet...well at least someone cared about her "The Anti-Diva" Paige.Which she was still surprised that someone was nice enough to talk to her.She shook her headI bet Paige was just trying to be nice to me.Nobody cares about me....I haven't won a single damn match since coming here.Why am i still here?. She wonders to herself,which was the truth.Why is she here?She has nothing to prove.Maybe she should leave

Taryn...

begins to say the reaction crew.Taryn sighs folding her arms across her chest and stares at them.This is all what im good for,for 15 minutes of fame and once again im back to losing dumb crappy matches.What is the point of all of this? she thinks to her self.Before sighing deeply and looks back up at the camera crew

What do you want?

We were hoping you could give us your thoughts about what happened tonight?Things didn't go according to plan for you or your match

Your right guys,it didn't.That match wasn't supposed to happen period.I never requested that match to begin with.I am a athlete NOT a eye candy diva.But it seems the message is not getting through to anybody in this company.What is the point of me coming here in the first place?

You wanted a better start Taryn.Everybody has a rocky start in a new company.Im sure things will turn around for you soon

Thanks for the pep talk guys...but im having second thoughts about this...

she says turning around and was about to walk away but the lights came out when they came back on the camera crew turned around spotted Taryn knocked out



Taryn?C-Can you hear me?We need help

No...what you need is a wake up call....

says a voice but the camera crew couldn't find who it was as we see Taryn slowly groaning in pain as it fades
