[Xion Zeros]

Official GZWA Primetime Theme: I Want It All / We Will Rock You [Mash-Up] - Queen (feat. Armageddon)
Recorded Date: March 21, 2014
Air Date: April 2, 2014

---

Prof. X: Welcome to another edition of GZWA Primetime, ladies and gentlemen. We have a stellar show lined up for you folks tonight…
Francine: Woah, what’s up with the lights?
The Carter: I think Mr. Zeros forgot to pay the electric bill...

To the dismay of the live audience attending tonight’s Primetime broadcast, tonight’s show opens with the arena enveloped in a blanket of darkness as a spotlight focuses on the empty ring.

A familiar theme fills the arena as a hooded figure exits the ring curtain followed by several druids carrying a coffin.



Prof. X: My goodness… You don’t think that ‘he’ has returned to GZWA?
The Carter: If you’re referring to The Undertaker, then I think you’ve hit jackpot there, Professor.
Francine: It’s not WrestleMania season here in GZWA, so what do you think would want here? I don’t think we should be jumping to conclusions yet…

After the druids rest the coffin in front of the ring and surround the ring, The Undertaker enters the ring and removes his hood…



Much to the surprise of the GZWA Nation, it was the GZWA Chairman Xion Zeros underneath the garb the entire time. Mocking The Undertaker, kneels towards the coffin as the druids took the opportunity to open the coffin. Inside the coffin, it was revealed that a corpse nor a body was present. Instead, there was several pieces of Straight-Edge Society and CM Punk memorabilia inside the coffin.

Zoey Valentine handed a microphone to the GZWA Chairman before he gestured towards the open casket.

Xion Zeros: “I would like to formally welcome all of you to the funeral of our dearly departed friends of the Straight-Edge Society, but most importantly, the end of CM Punk.

You see, CM Punk and Lise Starr have been formally disposed of last week after the masterful combination of my genius and sheer brilliance to rid Ground Zero Wrestling Association of their presence once and for all.

You won’t see CM Punk in another wrestling company after his future endeavors from GZWA, especially after he already turned his back on the wrestling world once before. I’m not the bad guy here - I’m merely taking out the trash that should have been thrown out months ago.

As for Lise Starr, I’m doing her a favor as well. I’m putting her out of her misery prematurely - one, from the pain and torment of trying to put up with CM Punk as her boyfriend and second, I spared her from the anguish of whatever sick things up AJ Lee’s sleeve if their grudge went any farther. Who knows what could have happened next, maybe AJ could have tied Lise to the ceiling, carved her stomach open like a Thanksgiving turkey and took a shower with Lise’s blood like it was a reenactment of Hostel 2.

CM Punk carried himself around GZWA like he was some messiah, promising change and a revolution. The type of change he wanted in this business was delusional, just like every single one of his fans and his so-called followers. How can your false gods bring change when the deity you look up to - in this case, being CM Punk, is flawed? CM Punk isn’t a messiah that will lead the world of professional wrestling to the Promised Land. No, CM Punk’s best gift to this business is as a martyr - showing the stars of today and tomorrow of exactly how NOT to carry yourself in this business.

You want to believe in something, then believe in justice… And I don’t mean GZWA’s overly-inflated co-owner...”

Just as the GZWA Owner was going to continue his gloating to the dismay of the live audience, the sound of “Cult of Personality” by Living Colour blasts through the arena to interrupt as CM Punk appears on the stage, microphone in hand.

CM Punk: “Wait, wait, WAIT! Hold the presses everyone. I want a front row seat to this, especially since it’s MY funeral after all...”



Xion Zeros: “What the hell is going on here? Why hasn’t security thrown this skinny ‘former’ employee out of my arena? CM Punk doesn’t work here anymore!!”

CM Punk slowly strides to the side of the stage, playing to the crowd. Meanwhile, back in the ring, the majority owner is less than impressed.

Xion Zeros: “How about you do these people a favor and do what you did in that other company and take your ball home and disappear FOREVER? No one wants you here in GZWA!”

CM Punk: “I stood backstage and listened to your little rant about my departure a moment ago and you know what, Xion, you are absolutely right.

When I, as you put it, ‘took my ball and went home’ while I was in that other company, you folks at home know what it’s called… (Crowd chants “WWE” to Xion Zeros’ dismay) Yeah, that’s the one. (Punk waves at the camera) Hey, Vince!

…The truth of the matter is this: It got to the point where I honestly didn’t want to be in that environment anymore - the politics, most of the people there, and especially the chimps in the back who thought they could tell me who I am supposed to be. So, I left. It may not have been the most sensible thing to do, but I reached my breaking point. To my fans and supporters, I want to apologize and say that I’m sorry for disappointing them at that stage of my career.

This thing between us, Xion, is much, MUCH different. I want to be here, not just for Lise Starr, but all of the men and women in the back in the locker room who bust their asses in this arena week-in and week-out, but all of these fans in this arena and watching around the world. I’m going to stay here and keep overcoming every cheap little obstacle you throw in my way until I back you into a corner, with nowhere to go, helpless and afraid of the worst beating you’re going to experience in your life.

I’m going to get what I want and that starts tonight." 

CM Punk drops his mic and starts marching towards the ramp. He stops suddenly when his feet become submerged in pink smoke. The smoke slowly covers the stage and the ramp down to the ring. Punk is looking worriedly at all the smoke and backs towards where he was standing. A chorus of young girls’ voices can be heard speaking in tandem.

“As I lay me down to sleep…
I pray my soul is mine to keep…
And never step outside this bed…
Into aaaaall evil, now back from the dead…

*man’s voice* Are you scared?
*chorus* She’s here….



The lights go out and some screams and cheers can be heard from the audience. With a blast, the music starts and strobe lights flash while pink and lime green lasers shoot in all directions, creating a rave effect. A small figure emerges from backstage wearing a hooded robe similar to the ones the Druids are wearing, only in pink. The figure slowly raises its arms and tosses the hood back. On cue, the music stops and the lights return to normal. The robe slowly slides off the “Voluptuous Vixen’s” shoulders to the ground around her feet. With her eyes locked on the man in the ring, Justice extends her right hand and a nearby stage hand puts a microphone in it.



Justice: Mate, if there is one bloke on this entire planet that is aware of how “inflated” I am, it would be you. Although, things would be much more interesting if you were inclined to play with something else periodically…

Xion Zeros: It's not my fault that particular someone decided to become everyone's favorite bi---

Justice closes her eyes and raises her free hand to stop him.

Justice: Mate, I am not here for that. It would appear that your life choices of late have been… less than wise. Since Brooklyn has returned to your life, everything has gone south. All that remains is this whining pre-preschooler that I see before me. This is not the bloke that has run two successful companies. This is not the bloke that has inspired millions of fans. This is not the bloke…

Justice’s voice softens.

Justice: This is not the bloke who was able to tame me.

In the ring, Xion shakes his head and chuckles. With a dismissive wave, the co-owner turns his back on Justice. The Vixen’s face falls and she tilts her head forward slightly. After a quick moment, Justice puts her game face back on and continues.

Justice: Obviously, the soft approach has failed miserably. Now is the time for some tough love. Mate, you may own and rule the Board with an iron fist, but that ring you are standing in is mine! I intend to remind you, Mr. Punk, the rest of the locker room and the entirety of the GZWA Universe that there is no justice but this Justice! The Board may think of me as some mewling slattern, but they will come to regret that opinion in short order.

Justice turns to face CM Punk.

Justice: Mr. Punk. Would you kindly approach me please.

CM Punk looks around at the audience. Chants of “Don’t do it!” and “Do it!” echo throughout the arena. Punk shrugs and picks up his microphone before cautiously approaching the Vixen. As he gets near to her, Justice reaches into her cleavage and pulls out a rolled up stack of papers. Punk’s eyes go wide at the sight. Justice unfurls the papers and presents them to CM Punk.

Justice: This is a new contract. I trust you will find this more than generous as it is similar to your previous contract with higher performance bonuses. There is one of these for each member of the Straight Edge Society sitting in my office for such time as they choose to claim them.

CM Punk looks all over the arena with an over exaggerated look of shock on his face. Xion for his part is furious. Xion is about to speak when Punk beats him to the punch.

CM Punk: Oh my GAWD! Is it my birthday? Did Christmas come early? What do you guys think? Should I sign it?



The crowd responds with a resounding “YES!” while in the ring, Xion is waving his hands around hysterically, screaming “NO!”

CM Punk: Well, I’d like to but I don’t seem to have a pen on me…

CM Punk looks around a moment and his eyes settle on the hiding place that the contract was nestled. Justice’s eyes go wide as she deduces too late what Punk’s intentions are. The “Best in the World” rams his hand down Justice’s cleavage and rummages around, looking for a pen. After a few moments, Justice puts her hands on her hips and gives Punk a death stare.

Justice: MISTER Punk! You have had a firm grip on my pen for a time now…

Punk just smirks at the Vixen and pulls the pen out. He looks around again for a place to sign the contract but seemingly can’t find one. He places the contract on top of Justice’s assets and signs the contract. Justice looks up at the rafters full of rage. After finishing, CM Punk holds the contract up high in the air cheering while he snakes his other arm low around Justice’s waist with his hand settling on the Vixen’s hip. Justice tries to pull away but Punk pulls her back in.

CM Punk: You don't have to be boob about it, Justice... 

Justice gives Punk another death stare while he obliviously plays to the crowd. In the ring, Xion is seething. Even at the commentary table, Carter is frowning.

CM Punk: Isn’t this the greatest co-owner of all time? And talk about a “treasure chest”! What else do you have hiding in there Justice? The lost city of Atlantis? Or maybe some front row tickets to WrestleMania 30, not like anyone wants to attend that crummy show anyway...

Punk moves to look down Justice’s cleavage again but Justice pushes him back. One of the Chimbos appears behind the pair. While looking at Xion in the ring, Justice snatches the contract and pen from Punk and hands it behind to the spandex-clad man who disappears backstage with them. Justice then lifts the mic to her mouth.

Justice: Now that my obligation to the Board is complete, it is time to reinforce what I stated earlier. As the Slammiversary posters state, this is MY world. Since you seem to have this delusion that while you have your enforcers present, you are untouchable, I am making a match here and now that WILL be a part of the Tag Team Tournament between your enforcers and Mr. Punk here with a partner of his choosing. Do you have a partner in mind?

CM Punk: Well, Lise isn’t here and Dean-o is still in the hospital, no thanks to your “mate’s” goon squad, but I’m positive I can find a suitable partner to help me get the job done tonight. 

Xion smirks, “You’re welcome to try, Punk, but according to AJ Lee, she notes that you have made quite the reputation of not getting the job done and leaving people unsatisfied.”

Punk shrugs, “What does she know? Everyone knows she’s crazy anyway. How did you two have a conversation? Did she spell it for you in her bowl of Cheerios or did your daughter have to do the translating? We all know there’s only one of you with a functioning brain between the three of you. It’s obviously not Cray-Jay and it will be a cold day in hell before you have any brain cells between those ears.”

Xion glares at CM Punk silently before raising the microphone once more, “Real cute, Punk, but I don’t have time for your cheap wisecracks. This is your funeral after all, so how about I do you a favor and help you get back to the morgue?”

CM Punk: “If that’s a threat, I’m more than ready to skip to the main course, go straight to dessert, and knock that smile right off your face…”

Suddenly, two of the druids turn to face Justice and Punk. The druids removed their hoods to reveal their identities as Dequan Wallace and G-Money Briggs. CM Punk drops his mic and removes his hand from Justice’s waist. Justice marches forward with murder in her eyes.

Justice: Boys, don’t even suppose…

All trace of Justice’s accent is gone. Wallace and Briggs look at each other for a moment and continue up the ramp. When the four are close to colliding, Xion calls the Enforcers back.

ZX: He's not worth it. Save his slaughter for later tonight. I'm personally going to guarantee that you regret signing that contract...

The Enforcers begrudgingly do as they are told and back off. Cautiously, CM Punk and Justice retreat back to the stage. When the Enforcers assume their positions at ringside, CM Punk decides to take one final glance at the owner.

Without warning, Justice rams her knee into the groin of the unsuspecting Punk. In reaction, CM Punk goes up on his toes and bends forward, burying his face in Justice’s assets. Justice looks up to the rafters again with a look that screams “Why me?” as Punk slides to his knees, dragging his face down the front of Justice’s torso. Punk is on his knees with his face in a place it really shouldn't be when Justice bends forward and gently lifts his face from her groin by his chin. When she speaks, Justice’s accent has returned.

Justice: By the by mate, welcome to GZWA. We hope you enjoy your stay.

Two Chimbos emerge from backstage and pick up Punk by his arms and drag him backstage while Justice follows leaving Xion alone in the ring shouting after them.

Prof. X: That was truly something else there. Who would have guessed that CM Punk would be rehired right on the spot at the start of this broadcast?
Francine: I hate to be one to say it, but I told you so. CM Punk is a man who can’t be taken lightly. Carter, I hope you’re not still jealous over there that Punk got more contact with Justice than you could ever hope to have in your entire life.
The Carter: Lucky bastard… What’s next, is he going to kick Lisey to the curb and start dating Justice instead?
Francine: Punk doesn’t do airheads.
The Carter: That explains why he didn’t last long with Maria Kanellis…
Francine: For the record, she has more brain cells than you, Carter.
Prof. X: We’re going to change gears and start with some GZWA action with the debuts of two new Superstars.

** Singles Match **
Drew Blood (debut) vs. “The Preacher of Darkness” Travis Century (debut)

Both Superstars stare down after the opening bell, but all eyes focus on the masked man at ringside watching the match.



Prof. X: Anyone know who is this guy?
The Carter: No idea, Professor. I got nuthin’.
Francine: We finally get to see Hano Eiyu and Rocky Romero to remove their masks, yet GZWA keeps attracting these masked weirdos…

To Drew Blood’s surprise, Travis Century drops to his knees and prays. Drew Blood falls for this tactic, only to receive a Throat Thrust as his just desserts at the start of this contest. Travis Century continues his offense with a Suplex Backbreaker, leaving Drew Blood writhing in pain on the canvas. As the young rookie clutched his spine, Travis Century applied a Single Leg Boston Crab. With the hold applied, Travis Century looks up to the heavens to honor his savior as he applies more pressure.

Francine: What is this guy, a Jehovah’s witness? If so, I’m not buying whatever he’s selling.
The Carter: That’s because you would explode into flames if you touched a Holy Bible, Franny.
Francine: Please, Carter. You’ve committed so many crimes of adultery with yourself that the Vatican aren’t able to cleanse your spirit.

The masked man at ringside continues to watch the match transpire in complete silence. Travis Century releases the hold prematurely and walks over towards the ropes to acknowledge their visitor. The stranger merely stares blankly before Travis Century grew impatient with his lack of action and turned his attention back towards the grounded Drew Blood. Travis Century motioned to apply the Single Leg Boston Crab again, but Drew Blood stopped playing possum long enough to stop Travis Century in his tracks with a Leg Feed Enzuigiri. With the infamous Preacher of Darkness stunned, Drew Blood sent his foe flying across the ring with Overhead Belly to Belly. Travis Century wisely choose to roll out of the ring and onto the ring apron after impacting onto the canvas. Drew Blood pursued his prey and looked to knock Travis off the ring apron with a Running Shoulder Tackle but Knee Lift to the face stopped Drew in his tracks long enough for Travis to return back into the ring with a Diving Tornado DDT from the top rope. After Drew’s skull bounces off of the canvas, Travis took the opportunity to kiss the canvas before looking above to the heavens before covering Drew Blood.

One…
Two…
NO!!!

Travis Century argues the count with Referee Jimmy Korderas before turning his attention back towards Drew Blood. He elevates Drew onto his shoulders for a Death Valley Driver, but Drew impedes his journey towards victory with several elbows to the side of Travis’ head. Drew Blood slides off Travis’ shoulders safely and Irish whips Travis Century into the ropes. Travis rebounds from the ropes and into a Scoop Powerslam. Drew Blood dusts his hands off with Travis Century at his feet before climbing the turnbuckle and taking flight with a Diving Leg Drop. Travis Century rolls out of the way at the last instant, causing Drew Blood to crash and burn.

The Carter: You would think with a name like Drew Blood he would be starring in one of those Twilight movies...
Francine: Oh Carter, you can’t fool me. I know how much you love all of those films.
The Carter: Okay, I’ll admit I went to see all of them in the theater since I was hoping I could pick up chicks afterwards…
Francine: You are such a big loser, Carter.

With Drew Blood in a seated position, Travis Century struck him with a kick to the face before looking to end this with the Darkness Driver (Pumphandle Reverse Piledriver). Drew Blood shows that he’s not out of this yet as he slides down Travis’ spine and shoves the Preacher of Darkness into the corner post. Travis Century spun around in a daze only to receive a DDT to the canvas. After Travis Century’s skull bounced off the canvas, Drew Blood hit the ropes and returned with the Blood Driver (Busaiku Knee). With the Preacher of Darkness down for the count, Drew Blood covered him for the win.

One…
Two…
Three!!!



The masked Superstar continues to watch Drew Blood celebrate his win in his GZWA debut as Primetime takes a commercial break.

Prof. X: The Marvelette had an impressive victory in her debut match, defeating Nikki Bella. I’m anxious to see how this former MMA fighter does against the Canadian Firecracker.
Francine: This would definitely be a change of pace for Lauren Riley as I’m sure she’s not accustomed to people jumping around and flying everywhere in MMA.

** Singles Match **
"The Marvelette" Lauren Riley vs. "The Canadian Firecracker" Ruby Cooper

After the opening bell, the match starts up with a standard lock-up. Ruby Cooper gains the upper hand and transitions into a side headlock, but The Marvellette counters by shoving her into the ropes. The Canadian Firecracker responds with a Springboard Back Elbow, which Lauren Riley ducks underneath with ease and capitalizes with a Michinoku Driver. She hooks Ruby Cooper’s leg into a pin upon impact as Referee Slick Johnson makes the count.

One…
Two…
WAIT!!

Ruby Cooper reverse the pin attempt with a Sunset Flip.

One…
Two…
NO!!

Lauren Riley powers out with a roll through of her own into a Wrist Clutch Exploder Suplex into a seamless transition into a STF.

Prof. X: Lauren Riley’s MMA roots are showing clear as day right now.
Francine: This isn’t looking pretty at all for Ruby Cooper. No pun intended.
The Carter: Hey, ALL of the GZWA Divas are pretty to me!

Ruby Cooper manages to grip the nearby ropes firmly to force a rope break. Lauren Riley takes a moment to run her fingers to through blonde hair before forcefully yanking the Canadian Firecracker off the ropes by the foot. Hopping on one foot, Ruby Cooper responds with a Dragon Whip. The blow knocks the Marvelette to her knees which left her ripe for the pending Shining Wizard from the Firecracker. Ruby Cooper then took the opportunity to nurse her ailing spine

Francine: Ruby should be trying to win this instead of taking a break!
Prof. X: I agree with you but Lauren Riley has been systematically wearing her down.

Ruby Cooper’s break came to an end as she sprung from the nearby ropes with a Somersault Leg Drop. The Marvelette rolls out of the way and counters with a Peruvian Necktie. Ruby Cooper squirms in the hold wildly as she resisted and refused to give up here. Once again, the fates have sided with Ruby Cooper as Slick Johnson orders another rope break after noticing her leg draped underneath the bottom rope.

The Carter: You can’t help but respect that ring awareness from the Firecracker.

After the break, Ruby Cooper attempts to roll out of the ring for a breather, but Lauren Riley has other plans. The Marvelette grabs her from between the ropes to drag her back into the ring by force. Fortunately, Ruby Cooper manages to free herself with a rope-assisted Jawbreaker. With the Marvelette stunned by the blow, Ruby Cooper took the opportunity to climb the top rope and strike with the Ginger Snap (Flipping Neckbreaker). The Canadian Firecracker took the opportunity to cover the Marvelette with great haste.

One…
Two…
Thr--WAIT!!

Lauren Riley rolls through out of the pin with an application of the Ankle Lock. Ruby Cooper desperately attempts to crawl towards the ropes, but the Marvelette wasn’t going to allow Ruby to delay the inevitable with another rope break and dragged her to the center of the ring.

Prof. X: This isn’t looking good for Ruby Cooper…
Francine: She’s trapped in an uncompromising position with no clear route of escape in sight… Sounds like a date with Carter.
The Carter: HEY!

Ruby Cooper hops on one foot and struck with an Enzuigiri with her free leg, but Lauren releases the hold in time to allow the blow narrowly miss its mark, but Ruby inadvertently takes out Referee Slick Johnson with the blow. During the confusion, the Marvelette capitalized with a Dragon Suplex on the Firecracker, bridging her to the canvas in a pin.

The Carter: Looks like Lauren didn’t notice that poor Slick took that blow that was meant for her from Ruby!

The live crowd counts, “ONE! TWO!! THREE!!”

Lauren Riley releases the cover and pounds the canvas out of frustration. She shakes Slick Johnson to an attempt to revive him to no avail. Ruby Cooper took advantage of this opening in the Marvelette’s offense to connect with a Running Bulldog as Lauren rose back to a vertical base. Ruby Cooper helps Slick to his feet before climbing the nearby turnbuckle to finish Lauren Riley off with a Diving Moonsault, but her ascension to the top is slow.

Prof. X: This match has paid it’s toll on Ruby Cooper’s body.
Francine: It’s no surprise. Lauren Riley has been tearing off her limbs like some sort of masochist from the start.
The Carter: Lauren’s more than welcome to bend me into some unorthodox positions…
Prof. X: Speaking of the Marvelette, she’s not out of this yet.

Just as Ruby Cooper motions to perform the Moonsault, Lauren Riley springs up to the top of the turnbuckle and applies a Rear Naked Choke. Ruby Cooper squirms to get free from the hold, but only manages to cause her and Lauren to lose their footing as they crash onto the canvas below. The Marvelette still has the hold applied while the Canadian Firecracker laid on top of her body.

Slick Johnson signals for the bell after Ruby Cooper submits to the pain. Referee Jacqueline Moore rushes out to the ring and discusses the result with Slick, pointing out that the Marvelette’s shoulders were pinned to the mat before the Firecracker submitted. The duo reach an agreement.

Zoey Valentine: “Due to the nature of the finish to this match, both referees have agreed that this match has resulted in a draw.”



Prof. X: (Whistles) That was truly something else. Ruby Cooper and Lauren Riley put on a wrestling clinic in there.
Francine: I’ve said it plenty of times, Professor. GZWA Divas aren’t pushovers. They are just as formidable in that ring as the boys, some of them even better.
The Carter: They aren’t bad on the eyes either...

Primetime is in full swing tonight, as the crowd is on their feet ready to see what happens as the night unfolds. Typically, this would the time that the feed would cut to a commercial break, but instead of the feed cutting out, the cameras remain focused on the arena. The GZWA Nation awaits the next match, but instead the arena turns purple and blue. The TitanTron turns on and a male voiceover begins.

Wrestling is known to be a brutal sport. Men and woman alike have competed all over the world for championships and opportunities to showcase their skills to show that they have what it takes to be the best. In the case of women's wrestling, it's not just about beauty, but about brutality. It's about making a career out of victories where your opponents have failed...and at Final Encounter, one woman will forever change the face of Ground Zero Wrestling Association.



After the video package ends, the TitanTron goes black momentarily before ""Lovefurypassionenergy" by Boy Hits Car begins to play through the arena and Lita's entrance video appears. At this point, the GZWA Nation is on their feet cheering wildly in anticipation of Lita's return to professional wrestling which has now been announced for Final Encounter.

---

The Carter: I’m shocked to hear that Lita’s coming to GZWA. I can’t wait!
Prof. X: Well, she was here for Slammiversary as one of the many ghosts of CM Punk’s past.
Francine: I’m more interested in finding out what Lise Starr thinks of this turn of events.
Prof. X: Up next, we have the first second round match in the Tag Team Tournament on the Winner’s Bracket between The Fallen and INked. Remember that The Fallen won the right to choose the stipulation for their match tonight.

***Tag Team Tournament Second Round***
The Fallen ("The Emo Warrior" Jimmy Jacobs & "The Anti-Diva" Paige) vs. INked (Greg Ramirez & Keri Cruz w/ Chanel Rodriguez)



Zoey Valentine: Due to their win during the Tag Team Turmoil match during the last episode of Primetime, The Fallen have decreed to make this match be contested under Hardcore rules.

Prof. X: Well, you heard it from the lovely Miss Valentine, GZWA fans. This match will be a hardcore tornado tag team match.
Francine: Both of these teams have looked strong in the opening round, but I feel like INked put the additional stress onto their shoulders when they decreed that they would walk out of this tournament as the first ever GZWA Tag Team Champions.
The Carter: Chanel Rodriguez has a lot of faith in her boys, so that’s more than enough to make me a firm believer in what they are capable of.

The match starts off with Jimmy Jacobs making a pass at Chanel Rodriguez at ringside only to be attacked from behind by Greg Ramirez. Meanwhile in the ring, Paige squares off with Keri Cruz, who sends her into the corner. The Anti-Diva hits the breaks at the corner and delivers a Drop Toe Hold onto the incoming Keri Cruz to drop him face-first into the turnbuckle. Paige then takes the opportunity to lock in the Tarantula (Rope Hung Boston Crab).

Prof. X: Please keep in mind that since this is a Hardcore Match, the Anti-Diva can keep that applied as long as she wants.
The Carter: That is until the lovely Chanel has a problem with it…

Chanel Rodriguez introduces the first weapon in this match by striking Paige with a kendo stick to force her to release Keri Cruz out of the illegal hold. Chanel motioned to strike Paige again as she stood on the ring apron, but the Anti-Diva caught the kendo stick in motion and headbutted Chanel down to the floor in one smooth motion. Unfortunately for the Anti-Diva, that break in offense was the opening that Keri Cruz needed to turn things around. He used the very same kendo stick that Paige took from Chanel and used it to perform a White Russian Leg Sweep (Kendo Stick-assisted Russian Leg Sweep) to slam her to the canvas. Cruz follows up with a standing Moonsault before hooking Paige’s leg in a pin.

Jimmy Jacobs attempts to make the save, but Ramirez knocks Jacobs’ legs from underneath him, causing The Emo Warrior to taste the ring apron before hitting the floor.

One…
Two…
NO!!

The Anti-Diva manages to roll her shoulder off the canvas, but that doesn’t stop Keri Cruz as he applies the Texas Cloverleaf. At ringside, Jacobs attempts to pull himself by using the ring apron but Greg Ramirez closes in with a Spear. Jacobs leapfrogs over Ramirez and allows him to crash into the steel steps. Once in the ring, the Emo Warrior breaks the hold with a well-placed Running Arched Big Boot to the jaw of Keri Cruz.

Jimmy Jacobs then does the gentleman like thing and helps Paige to her feet only for her to shove him in the chest. Jacobs looks confused at his partner before she blurts it out in her heavy English accent, “GET THE TABLES!!”

Francine: Talk about giving a guy a hint…
The Carter laughs, “The Dudley Boys, those two are not!”

The Fallen exit the ring together and set up a series of tables, two stacked up at ringside while one in the corner in the ring. Paige stomps on the waking Keri Cruz repeatedly before inviting Jacobs to take a shot. The Emo Warrior charges in and struck with a Spear as Keri Cruz rose to his feet. Unfortunately, Cruz moved out of harm’s way and caused Jacobs to Spear Paige through the table in the corner.

The Carter: Well, that’s one way to give a girl some ‘wood’...
Prof. X: I’m sure that’s definitely NOT what neither Paige nor Jimmy Jacobs had in mind there, partner.

Jimmy Jacobs pulled at his hair, cursing himself for his mistake before Keri Cruz and the returning Greg Ramirez took advantage of the situation with the Murda-Ville Suite (Russian Leg Sweep/Bicycle Yakuza Kick combination). While Paige rolled out of the ring in pain, Chanel Rodriguez cheers frantically from ringside as Ramirez makes the pin.

One…
Two…
Thre---NO!!!

Somehow Jimmy Jacobs finds the strength to kick out of the pin to the disbelief of the members of INked. Chanel pounded on the ring apron, urging INked to keep up with the offense to close this match out for good. Ramirez and Cruz climbed up the turnbuckle in unison as they signaled for Double Diving Elbow Drops to the prone Emo Warrior. Just as Cruz is about to go airborne, Paige hammers a steel chair over his spine. Ramirez races across the ring apron to assist Cruz doubled over on top of the turnbuckle, but Jimmy Jacobs connects with a Super Kick. The blow sends Ramirez flying off the ring apron and crashing through the two stacked tables below at ringside. Chanel Rodriguez’s concern immediately goes towards her boyfriend as he laid among the debris. Paige took control of the match from here and delivered an Avalanche Fisherman Buster on Keri Cruz from the top rope. Paige and Jacobs covered Cruz in unison.

One…
Two…
Three!!!




Prof. X: This unorthodox team of Paige and Jimmy Jacobs keeps impressing me throughout this tournament.
Francine: Agreed. At this rate, they are strong favorites to win this thing.
The Carter: Don’t forget The Bradleys and the Ladies of Doom. Besides, INked aren’t out of this tournament yet. They could still come back and win it after surviving the Losers Bracket.

The lights dim in the arena, as "Das Schwarze Meer" by Subway to Sally blasts through the arena. Kayda Erikson wastes no time is appearing on stage, microphone in hand and walks down the ramp.



As she reaches the bottom, she begins speaking and continues as she enters the ring.

Last week on Primetime, everything that I thought I knew my life to be was completely turned around. What I thought was the truth, what I thought I knew for almost 29 years has all been nothing but a bunch of sheiße! At first, I thought it was another one of Genesis' cruel tricks to try and get under my skin. To somehow drive me out of GZWA to make up for what I did to his precious wife, Sapphire, when I kicked her ass and sent her packing into retirement.

Now in the ring, Kayda lowers the microphone for a second, taking a deep breath, before raising the mic back up and continuing to speak.

I'm not going to apologize for what I did to her. She deserved it for everything she had put me through even before I had debuted here. Now, the issues continue between Genesis and I. This time, though, it's way more personal. What was revealed to me last Primetime, was something so disgusting, so vile, and so completely disturbing that I can never let it be seen. I had seen a piece of the puzzle in the past, and unfortunately, it took this long for the bigger picture to be revealed.

A disappointed look is on her face, as she truly is ashamed of what she now knew. She lowers the microphone again not wanting to speak of this and shaking her head, but decided to go on without taking too long of a break.

Regardless of this new found information, I --

Just as The Unholy Angel had raised the mic, a familiar entrance theme sounds through the speaks, causing Kayda to roll her eyes and cross her arms in front of her chest, while the audience started a chorus of boos. 



*What Kayda/Genna began to hear were the familiar sounds of Avenged Sevenfold's "Hail to the King", which could only mean one man was about to come out and make his presence known to the world. Much to the dismay of Miss Erikson, Genesis steps out from behind the curtain.*



*Genesis is shown stepping out with a smile on his face. In his left hand was a bag. What the contents of this bag was, we (the audience) have no clue at this juncture. By the look on Genny's face we aren't too far away from finding out. Whatever it was, it can't be good for GZWA's "Unholy Angel". This bitter rivalry has been brewing and building up for a while now. Ever since we saw the demise of Genesis' wife and now former GZWA Diva "The Crowned Jewel" Sapphire at the hands of Kayda Erikson, Genesis vowed to destroy Kayda's life out of revenge for everything she had done to his wife. Not only have things gotten so bitter and personal, now, things have taken a twisted, more sinister turn. One that Genesis knows that he has power and control over her as long as this puppet-master continues to pull the strings. Last week, he showed her a small piece of the puzzle. This week wasn't about reveals, but about 'rebirth' and 'resurrection'. But for whom? Genesis or Kayda??

Genesis steps through the ropes. Kayda bored a hole through Genesis with her eyes as he stood across from her with a tight grip on this bag. He was handed a microphone from ring announcer Zoey Valentine. His theme music faded away, as he lifted the microphone up to his lips. However, before he could speak, Kayda cuts him off*

What the hell do you want? Don't you think you've caused enough trouble around here?

The smile on Genesis' face answered her question, as she diverted her eyes to the bag in his hand.

Anything else that I should know about in there?

*Genesis relinquishes the bag and drops it on the ring mat next to him. His smile turned into a seemingly sincere look of remorse, maybe even regret. Like a child who had been scolded for snacking before dinner and felt ashamed.*

Genesis: "On the contrary. To be honest with you.... *sighs* I know I've crossed the line and said some things that I shouldn't have said. Did things that hurt you, and drove you over the edge. Truth be told, I said and did all these things out of my own anger & rage. I was blinded by my emotions, and I was upset about everything that had gone down between you and Kristine (Sapphire). So much so that all I could think about was how I could hurt you and make you pay for everything you've done to her. What I have in this bag are things that mean the world to you. Stuff that you treasure in your everyday life. To me, they're just mindless, materialistic garbage. To you, this is a big piece of your life. A part of me of wants to take each and every one of these items and trash them in front of your face one by one. However, there's another part of me that... well..."

*Genesis lowers the microphone, then tilts his head down facing the ring mat. He then glances around the arena, looking confused and bothered. He then regains his composure and begins to speak to Kayda once more.*

Genesis: "I don't expect you to believe me or anything, but, I just wanted to say that I'm sorry... ya know... for everything. Making fun of you, your quote unquote "boyfriend" Eric, your deceased friends, everything! I'm not so good about expressing myself or my feelings, so you'll just have to bare with me. Look, I'm not going to beat around the bush any longer with you, Kayda. I want you to have these back, okay?"

*Genesis reaches down into the bag and starts pulling one item after the other. Her "Subway to Sally" CD collection, an 'autographed' poster of Eric Fish with his 'signature' written and personalized to Kayda. He also pulls out a group picture of Kayda and her deceased friends from high school that was taken weeks before the tragic accident that left Kayda scarred for life (literately). Genesis lays each and every one of these items in front of him, to where they lay between he and Kayda. As if a 'line' had been formed out of her belongings, and Genesis & Kayda were standing across from each other with these items being the 'center' of this whole issue.*

Genesis: "But... before I can give these back to you. There is one more thing you need to do."

Regardless of his seemingly legitimate apology, The Unholy Angel can feel her blood boiling as he pulls her personal belongings from the bag. As they're laid on the mat between them, Kayda balls her fists with her face nearly matching her hair color with how livid she is.

Nein! Das sind meine und du hast kein Recht nehmen sie von mir haben! (No! These are mine and you have no right to take them from me!)

She glares at Genesis, taking a step forward wanting to attack, but she forces herself to remain where she is. She sighs heavily, glancing down at her things once more. She's torn between her complete hatred and loathing of Genesis, and wanting to beat him within an inch of his life and knowing that everything that means anything to her is right there in front of her. In essence, Genesis was protecting himself, knowing that Kayda wouldn't do anything with everything she loved at risk. She looks up at Genesis, shaking her head in frustration!

I want my things back right now, or I swear to everything holy that I'll make you wish you were never born!

*Genesis is a bit surprised by her reaction to his apology. Nevertheless, in a way he could understand her feelings of hatred towards him. Ironically, the way she feels towards him reflect the feelings he had towards the likes of AJ Styles and CM Punk in the past. He can sympathize and relate to how she's feeling inside right now. Nevertheless, Genesis reaches down and picks up two Subway to Sally CD's, all of which are mint conditioned and well taken care of*

Genesis: "Fine... have it your way then. So much for modesty and gratitude."

*Genesis extends his hand out, as he holds both albums. Kayda reaches in to retrieve them from Genesis, only for Genesis to pull his hand back*

Genesis: "Like I said.... there is something you must do for me first before you can have these back. I want you to tell me your name -- your REAL name!"

*The crowd begins to boo, as they see that something is up and this is turning into another 'game' right before their very eyes.*

Genesis: "Tell the WORLD who you really are, 'Kayda', or else..."

Well, it looks like Eric already knows what YOU really are!

Kayda motions to one of the CDs that Genesis is holding, as he looks down to notice the album is called "Bastard".

My real name doesn't matter, when I'm in this ring, I'm Kayda Erikson, just like you're Genesis. Of course, those aren't our real names. Everyone knows that!

Kayda notices that Genesis is distracted looking at the CD, as she makes another attempt to grab at them.

*Genesis quickly pulls his hand back again. Then waves his finger in front of her going "nuh uh!" Genesis glances back down at the CD she was referring to and replies*

Genesis: "You have no idea how much of one I can truly be."

*Genesis chuckles*

Genesis: "I implore you to be on your best behavior and play by the rules of our little game. Now, be a good girl and answer the question. What is your name? The name that is on your driver's license. The name that is on your passport. The name that is on your birth certificate. The name that defines who you really are."

Frustrated, Kayda decides that she's had enough of Genesis and bites her tongue to avoid verbally lashing out.

I hate my name. There are too many horrible things attached to it, but if that's what you want? Fine, I'll say it. My name...

Just before she says it, a thought crosses her mind and at the same time, a smile slowly forms on her face. She quickly looks away before Genesis notices, and continues speaking.

My name is Genevieve Hecht...There, I said it. Are you happy?

She looks up at Genesis momentarily and then returns her eyes to her belongs displayed in the middle of the ring, specifically the poster of Eric. 

*Genesis starts clapping as he replies*

Genesis: "See? That wasn't so bad, now was it? Now... I want you to say it again... but SIEBEN (seven) times over!"

*Genesis said with a devilish smile*

Genesis: "Sieben is your number, is it not?"

Kayda keeps her head down, but moves her eyes from Eric up to Genesis as she returns his demonic smile, in a way only The Unholy Angel herself could, and rather than a frustrated tone as before, she speaks calmly and almost in an eerie way.

Ja, Sieben ist meine Zahl. (Yes, seven is my number.) What you fail to realize, Brandon is that a name is anything you want it to be. Your name can be anything you tell someone it is.

She kneels down in front of the poster of Eric, and rubs her fingers gently over his face a couple of times. When finished, she lifts her head up locking eyes with Genesis and tilting her head slightly, like a cat does when debating whether an object is worthy of becoming a target.

For example, you come out here and wrestle under the name of Genesis. That's not your real name, of course. And we're all okay with that. My name is Kayda Erikson, and no, that's not what is on legal documents, but it's the name I'm comfortable with. The name people know me by. The name I tell people is my real name, but it's not.

At this point, Kayda stands up, and takes a step over her belongings closer to Genesis, symbolically crossing the line and in a way challenging him. She lowers her voice, bringing the microphone nearly touching her lips.

Do you want to know my name? My real name? Like I said before, a name is anything you want it to be. My real last name isn't Hecht, that's Eric's last name that I adopted as my own.

A big smile forms on Kayda's face, as she knows that she's completely infuriated Genesis with her lies, but she doesn't care as it felt good to make him feel like the asshole he's been.

*The look of infuriation quickly changed to a devilish smile, as Genny replied*

Genesis: "Did you really think I was going to fall for that? See, this isn't about 'me' wanting to know what your name really is, I already know who you truly are. You know who you really are. This is about the masses -- the people! Them!"

*Genesis points to the crowd around the arena*

Genesis: "Along with those watching around the world. See, not only are you a psycho, but you have now proven to the world that you're a pathological liar! How does a liar like you expect to gain ANY sympathy? You referred to me earlier as a "bastard", right? I guess if you don't want to play by the rules and become a rebel without a cause, there is only one thing left for me to do to you. I'm a lot of things to many people, but a "lair" I am not.... but I am a proud fucking asshole!"

*Genesis reaches into the bag and pulls out two more items that he neglected to pull out among all of her belongings.*

Genesis: "Remember this? (the picture). This is a crucial piece to your existence. This picture can tear your entire world upside down, "Kayda". Matter of fact, not just this picture... but the other item I am holding can 'seal the deal' (pun intended). You see, in this envelope is a document that backs up everything you see in this one picture. Pure, 100% evidence! Evidence that I can take out of this envelope, read, and show to the world right now. Between these two items, the world will NEVER look at you the same way again! You will NEVER be able to show yourself in public again! The people will turn their backs on you. "Eric" will hate you forever! 

Now, you have one FINAL chance to play by our rules, or I swear on all things 'holy', that I will destroy your life and career right here, right now!"

*The crowd begins to boo loudly, as Genesis continues on with one sicking request that he knew would tear this woman apart limb from limb on the inside*

Genesis: "In addition to telling the world what your true name really is, I want you to pick up each and every one of these disgusting albums and destroy them one by damned one!"

*Kayda looks hesitant and reluctant, so Genesis decides to be 'nice' and give her an example*

Genesis:"Here, you look confused. Why don't I give you a visual aide, sweetheart."




*Genesis picks up the "Bastard" and "Nord Nord Ost" albums from Subway to Sally and proceeds to crush and destroy them in front of her. Pieces of the case and the discs themselves began to shatter and crumble to the mat one by one, as Kayda can only stand there in shock at what he had just done.*

Genesis: "There.... now, do it to the rest of them and then we'll proceed to the final act. If you think this is bad, this is NOTHING in comparison to what I will have you do next!"

*As Genesis lowers the microphone, he mouths off to Kayda: "I own you!" as he awaits for her to proceed with his demands.... or else risking further humiliation. This was quickly turning into a lose, lose situation for her "The Unholy Angel".*

Kayda is still at a loss for words at what Genesis had just done. The look on her face was as if someone had just turned down a lottery jackpot, as she gulps slowly as the disbelief slowly transitions to anger, and she speaks into the microphone quietly. As can be expected, her words are in German and given what had just taken place, were better left without a translation. As her voice increases volume, she switches to English.

Do you want to know my real name? The name I was given at birth? Is that going to somehow make everything better for you, Genesis? It won't give you a championship, and it sure as hell won't bring your precious little Kristine back to GZWA...But I'll say it. My name...is Genevieve Scheitlin.

Genesis looks satisfied, as he hands over several Subway to Sally CDs, continuing to wait for her to proceed with the second part of his request. Kayda hesitates before taking them, and looking down again towards her prized possessions. She looks over at the picture of her and her friends, and closes her eyes as she remembers that exact moment they took the picture. She remembered later that day going to the store and all of them bought "Bastard" which at the time was the newest Subway to Sally CD. They made her pay first and then go get the car since they had parked farther away. When she picked them up, they each gave her their bag, and in each bag was a few CDs each, making up the entire Subway to Sally CD collection to that point. Immediately, she snapped back to present where she was now being forced to destroy the exact CDs that her friends had given her, and the ones that she had been forced to purchase alone since then. Two of the CDs were already shattered, and her eyes fall to the mat where pieces of the CDs and cases had fallen. Kayda then takes each CD given to her and without emotion breaks it in half, dropping it in a pile at her feet. When all of the CDs are in pieces on the floor, Kayda sits on the mat amongst the broken CD pieces. She looks toward the poster of Eric, and puts the microphone down.

Eric, I-I'm sorry.

She immediately looks away completely ashamed for him to be seeing her after what she had just been forced to do.

*Genesis kneels down before Kayda. Putting his hand on her shoulder, he says*

Genesis: "There, there. This is nothing compared to what hell I will put you through next, little girl. I must ask you, "Genevieve", how does my version of the 'low blow' feel? HURTS doesn't it!? Did you really think you was going to 1-up me? Nobody... and I mean NOBODY, fucks with the puppet-master. I pull the strings and watch you dance. Then, when I am done with you, I cut your chords and watch you fall to the floor. Never to be seen or heard from again."

*Kayda shakes Genesis' hand off her shoulder, as she sat and glanced at the mat not wanting to look up at him. Genesis then stands up, then kicks the broken CD pieces out of his way. Once again showing complete disrespect and disregard for everything this woman stood for in her life. He made his way over and snatched the poster of Eric off the ground. Kayda looks back and dives to try and grab it, but to no avail as Genny kicked her hand away. He stands over The Unholy Angel, holding the poster in front of her face.*

Erik, mein Engel.

A half smile forms on her face, as her eyes meet his before her eyes continue to travel further up causing her smile to turn into a death glare as she locked eyes with Genesis.

I swear to God, that if you hurt him, I will make sure that your career, if not your life ends in this ring tonight.

*He laughs at her face and says*

Genesis: "I should just rip your entire world in half right now. But, I just can't do it... I've done enough to you, Genna. Have you learned your lesson?"

*Kayda can only nod, and look up at him with a look of desperation that anyone would be able to tell what she's thinking.*

Genesis: "You want Eric back?"

Er ist meine Welt, Genesis. Kannst du das gesehen? (He is my world, Genesis. Can't you see that?) 

Her voice begins to quiver and shake as she is truly concerned for Eric's well being and what Genesis plans to do.

Genesis: "Here... you can have him.... but on one condition."

*Genesis walks over and kneels down in front of Kayda, handing her the poster back, smiles and replies*

Genesis: "I want you to stand up, look right at the hard camera and TEAR this ugly piece of shit into shreds!"

*Gen. lowers the mic*

Upon receiving Eric back safe in her arms, she holds the poster close with both arms as if she was really hugging Eric after he had escaped danger. Upon hearing what Genesis was asking her to do, Kayda stands up still clinging to Eric's picture. She's in complete shock at what was just demanded of her and her voice cracked as she began to speak.

What? I-I can't. I won't.

She continues holding Eric close to her, as her voice is full of sorrow and pain.

I had to break all of the CDs that my friends had got for me, and I told everyone my name like you wanted. Please...please, Genny, don't make me do this.

Genesis: "...Fine!"

*Genesis walks over to the rest of her belongings, then contines*

Genesis: "Here's the deal, firecrotch"

*Genesis picks up the 'evidence' he has over Kayda, along with the group of Kayda and her deceased friends from long ago with a match. Genesis strikes the match and replies*

Genesis: "If you tear up the poster of Eric, I will burn all the 'evidence' I hold over you -- everything! I'll set you free and leave you and your little boy-toy alone. This is your last and only chance to do as I tell you."

Kayda squeezed her eyes shut tightly, holding Eric close to her. She started feeling sick as she felt Genesis glaring at her, waiting for her next move. Eric had meant everything to her in more ways than one. She and Katrin both bought posters that night at the concert, and because they had gotten VIP tickets, they got to go backstage and have them signed. After Kayda found out that her friends didn't survive the accident, she made sure that Katrin was buried with her poster, and in the hospital, Kayda made sure that hers was hanging at all times. As she began to recover, Eric was encouragement and motivation to her when she didn't have any. He was the smile that she needed to help her carry on and as she continued recovery, she began to talk to him and open up about her emotions. And at this very moment in time, Genesis was asking her to destroy the one person who meant the most to her at the reward of keeping their secret buried forever. And if she didn't, one more memory of her and her close friends would be gone forever. Genesis was making her choose between her friends and Eric, and Kayda couldn't take the emotions anymore. She felt a tear starting to burn in her eyes, as she felt Genesis growing impatient with her delay as the match burns down. Kayda Erikson was not one to cry, but after what had happened tonight, the overwhelming emotions had become too much. She opened her eyes, looking at the icy glare from Genesis, and simply nodded as her way to acknowledge his words.

She loosens her grip on the poster, holding it out in front of her. Her fingers started to tremble as she gripped the top of the paper, and slowly started to pull her left hand down causing a small tear at the top, and continuing to pull down until she held a piece in each hand. At the sound of the paper tearing, Kayda couldn't hold back anymore and streams of tears flooded her eyes. She put the two halves of the poster together on top of one another, and desperately looked at Genesis, who had extinguished the match. He nodded and whispered "Keep going, Genna" with a big cheshire cat grin on his face, as she continued to tear the poster up until the pieces were too small to be torn further. At this point, Kayda turns away from Genesis, focusing her eyes down and not caring at this point what else he makes her do.

*Genesis drops the evidence to the mat and walks over to Kayda, clapping his hands together as tells her*

Genesis: "What's the matter? I thought 'Unholy Angels' like you never cried? Wipe your tears away and grow the hell up! There is one more thing you need to do... and that's watch what I do to the memory of your beloved "Eric" and your deadbeat friends!"

*Kayda keeps her back turned, as Genesis walks over and grabs one more item out of the bag.*



Genesis: "Lucky for me, I brought 'back up', so to speak."

*Genesis cackled, as he walks over and picks up the 'evidence'. This catches the attention of The Unholy Angel, as she watches to see what he does. However, instead of living up to his word.... he tucks the picture and the envelope into his tights. He then picks up the picture of Kayda and her friends, then looks over at her, watching the tears drop to the mat like a running faucet.*

Genesis: "Far as I'm concerned, you and your friends... along with the 'remains' of that fat, German bastard.... can go straight to HELL!"

*Genesis sets the picture of Kayda & her pals on fire, then drops the picture into the remaining scraps of the poster of Eric that Kayda had torn to shreds. Everything Kayda ever known that was near and dear to her heart was literately going up in flames!*

The Unholy Angel lets out a ear piercing, blood curdling scream that would make the likes of Daffney and Madison Rayne jealous, as she watches her belongings burn. Her hands ball up into tight fists, her knuckles already starting to turn white from anger. She drops to her knees in front of the burning pile, as she continues screaming and her emotions run in a mixture of depression and beyond being furious. She turns her head to the left slightly, her eyes watching Genesis out of the corner. She stops screaming and glares at him, with a look on her face that you can just tell she's about to have a breakdown -- of which kind, no one knows.

Genesis: "I'm doing this for your own good. You can hate me now, but later on you will come to thank me for setting you free."

*Genesis exits the ring and leaves Kayda by herself to soak in everything that has happened to her tonight. This is by the far the LOWEST act Genesis has betrayed to date in the GZWA! He took everything away from this woman and destroyed it right in front of her face with no remorse and no regret. He smiled and chuckled to himself, as he walked up the rampway. He looked up at the titantron and smiled as he saw Kayda distrought and beyond any level of anger a 'normal' human being would feel for another. When he reaches the top of the stage, he looks back down at ringside and tells the world watching at home.*

Genesis: "The 'truth' shall set you free..."

*Genesis extends his arms out and smiles to the heavens above, then exits to the backstage area as Kayda screams at him in German from the ropes.*

Prof. X: Up next, we have the in-ring debut of Stacie Sanchez-Torres, a newly signed addition to the GZWA Divas division.
Francine: No relation to Amber and Leon Torres… to my knowledge anyway.
The Carter: I wonder if she’s single?

** Singles Match **
“Sexy Senorita” Stacie Sanchez-Torres (debut) vs. Tennel Blade

Tennel Blade extends a hand towards Stacie Sanchez-Torres out of good sportsmanship. Stacie looks quizzically at Tennel’s gesture before looking back up at her. To Tennel’s surprise, Stacie accepts the gesture before walking off and posing seductively against the ropes. Tennel makes the first move with a Running Clothesline, only to fall victim to Stacie’s pending Capture Suplex to send Tennel across the ring. Tennel Blade crawls on all fours, slowly trying to regain her composure, but the Sexy Senorita sends Tennel back to the canvas with a Running Knee Strike. Stacie wastes no time covering Tennel Blade.

One…
NO!!

Stacie whips her raven black hair over her shoulder before sitting on Tennel’s chest and delivering a series of mounted punches before Referee Jacqueline Moore separated the two Divas. Stacie maneuvers around Jacqueline and Irish whips Tennel Blade into the corner. Stacie Sanchez-Torres followed her prey into the corner and continued her offense with a series of rapid kicks to the chest. She planted her foot firmly over Tennel’s throat after the final blow as Jacqueline gave the illegal hold count.

1…
2…
3…
4…

Stacie releases the hold before backing off briefly only to charge in with a strong right hook to Tennel’s jaw just as she gasped for air. Tennel Blade staggered out of the corner and fell face-first into the canvas. Stacie took a moment to pose seductively over the ropes and winked towards Carter at the commentary table.

The Carter: I think I’m in love…
Francine rolls her eyes, “There’s not a Diva on the roster that you don’t fall madly in love with when they come out here…”
Prof. X: She does have a point there, partner.
The Carter: I like having a lot of options.
Francine: And all of those Divas like having options that don’t include you…

Stacie sets her attention back towards the grounded Tennel Blade and rolled her over to apply the Liontamer. Tennel Blade kicks Stacie into corner post and kips back up to her feet. Tennel Blade charges towards the corner and impacts into the Sexy Senorita with a Stinger Splash. Tennel hits the ropes and returns with another before Stacie Sanchez-Torres staggers out of the corner. She walks right into the pending Military Press from Tennel Blade. Tennel Blade shows an impressive display of power as she benches Stacie overhead with no effort at all while she walks around the ring. The fun and games are over just as Tennel drops Stacie over her knee in a modified Gutbuster. As Stacie writhes in pain holding her abdomen, Tennel delivers a Cartwheel Elbow Drop (Jillian Hall-style) before hooking the Sexy Senorita’s leg in a pin.

One…
Two…
Th---NO!!

Stacie manages to roll her shoulder off the canvas, but Tennel Blade doesn’t lose her determination to win for an instant. She continues her offense with a Wheelbarrow Facebuster, but a well-placed reversal slams Tennel face-first into the canvas. Tennel sat up slowly from the canvas, only for Stacie to connect with the Sanchize (Super Kick to kneeling/seated opponent).

Francine cringes, “I felt that blow from here… Talk about a face lift.”
Prof. X: Stacie would be wise to go for the win here.

Before Stacie could make the cover, Tennel wisely rolled out of the ring to recuperate. The Sexy Senorita wasn’t going to sit idly by while being so close to victory, so she hit the ropes and dove through the ropes with a suicide dive. Tennel Blade caught her in motion with a Very European Uppercut (Antonio Cesaro-style) that knocked Stacie to the canvas before she could even exit the ring. With the Sexy Senorita down on all-fours, attempting to regain her bearings from Tennel Blade’s mind-jarring blow, Tennel Blade climbed the corner post and took to the skies with a Diving Clothesline. Stacie Sanchez-Torres shook off the cobwebs and looked up to see Tennel Blade coming down at that instant. Fortunately, she managed to sidestep out of harm’s way and capitalized with the Stace Replace (Inverted facelock transitioned into double knee backbreaker/Angelina Love’s Break A Bitch). The Sexy Senorita makes the cover.

One…
Two…
Three!!



Francine: Tennel Blade put up a good fight, but Stacie Sanchez-Torres definitely put the Divas division on notice here tonight.
The Carter: These Diva matches keep getting better and better tonight!
Prof. X: If that’s any indication of what we are to expect when AJ Lee and Raven step into this ring later tonight, then I’m definitely anxious to see what those two bring to the table tonight.

*** END OF PART ONE ***

[Xion Zeros]

---

As the camera came up it showed Laura Jackson walking in the back of the arena muttering to herself angrily as she did this.

Laura Jackson: Mother fucking piece of shit, tell me I'm booked and then I'm not waste my time!

Laura then turned the corner and as she did she was smashed with a cup of coffee. The contain of which went on her t-shirt Laura looked up and saw that the coffee was being held by Alexis McCarthy! Laura looked at the blonde as she pulled the cup back.

Alexis McCarthy: Sorry I didn't mean to hit you with coffee it's just well you came around the corner at the same time and I...
Laura looked at her and then said.

Laura Jackson: Can I have the cup please?

Alexis passed the cup to Laura who looked at it and nodded. It still had a little coffee in the cup.

Laura Jackson: Thank you!

With that Laura threw the coffee right into the eyes of Alexis the blonde screamed in pain as the hot coffee blinded her. Laura however didn't seem to care as she grabbed Alexis by the words and throw her into a nearby wall. Laura then went over and drove foot into the chest of Alexis. Alexis started to cough from the shot but Laura wasn't done as she put the boots to Alexis tried to escape the beating Laura was putting on her. Laura finally grabbed her and picked her up once more.

She then held Alexis by the hair and got right in the face as she spoke to her.

Laura Jackson: This is what you for spilling coffee on my shirt!

With that Laura throw Alexis through a glass window that was nearby. The glass exploded as Alexis body smashed it apart and her body was cut to shreds by it. Laura then smirked as she saw the damage she had done to Alexis. Laura then looked at her shirt and sigh before she walked away from the carnage she had just created.

***Tag Team Tournament Second Round***
The Bradleys (GZWA Television Champion "Meta" Mike Bradley & Danielle Bradley) vs. Ladies of Doom ("The E.N.D." Endee Leights & "Lady So Divine" Delta Madison)
Special Guest Commentary: "Hardcore Harlot" Amanda Cortez

Primetime returns from commercial break with the next match already in progress as the cameras show the special guest joining the team on commentary, "Hardcore Harlot" Amanda Cortez.



Prof. X: My, Miss Cortez, you sure are dressed for the occasion…We’re pleased to have you join us here tonight.
Amanda Cortez: Why thank you, Professor. The pleasure is mine, as this is my first time having an opportunity to do something like this for GZWA.
Francine: Who knew you could clean up nice?
Amanda: Who knew you were such a bitch, Francine? Oh wait, everyone knows that...
The Carter’s jaw hangs open.
Amanda: Carter, keep your eyes up here and do me a favor. Don’t fucking touch me…
Francine grins, “I could learn to get along with you.”
Amanda merely shrugged.
Prof. X: I’m sure that you’re going to be scouting your competition at Final Encounter when you challenge Mike Bradley for the Television Championship?
Amanda: You could say that, but why should I worry about him? He’s the one afraid of ME. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be investing so much time and energy in this Tag Team Tournament. Eventually The Bradleys are going to face Laura and Casey in that ring and once that happens, let’s just say that won’t be a happy ending for The Bradleys.
Francine: So much for that insurance policy that The Bradleys have to make sure to have gold after this all said and done.
Amanda: Exactly.
Prof. X: Do you have any favorites to win this match, Mrs. Cortez?
Amanda: I don’t like neither of those losers. The MisFits are the only team that matters in this tournament.

With the match already in progress, the cameras show Delta Madison cradling the Television Champion’s skull in a side headlock before he elevated her overhead and dropped her onto the canvas with backdrop to counter. The Meta One took the opportunity to strut before continuing his offense, which allowed Endee Leights to intervene with Diving Hurracanrana.

Amanda: Watch the monkey dance for the approval of these fans. Everything that The MisFits and I do are for our own behalf and no one else’s.
Francine: What about your truce with your sister and the Queen Bee Mafia? That seems to be a little strange…
Amanda rolls her eyes, “I don’t know what you’re talking about…”
Suddenly, she then spun around and punched Carter hard in the stomach then remarks, “Next time you put your hand on my thigh, I’m going to find a rusty pipe and shove it so hard up your ass that you’re going to be pissing pennies!! Keep your hands to yourself.”
Carter groans, “Yes, ma’am.”
Prof. X: Carter is always saying that he’s a hands-on type of learner.

Endee motioned to help the Lady So Divine to her feet, but she was driven face-first into the canvas with a Running Bulldog from Danielle Bradley. Unlike her brother, she wastes no time showing off and goes for the pin.

One…
Two…
NO!!

Delta Madison breaks the pin with Double Axe Handle to the spine of Danielle.

Amanda: Cutting it a bit close there…
Francine: Just like how you ALMOST won the GZWA World Heavyweight title a few years ago against Carnage and Alkatraz?
Amanda: I’m the baddest bitch in this company - in AND out of the ring, and SOOO much better than you even on your best and worst day, Francine. Just ask Carnage… those boys were lucky I didn’t walk away champ that night.
Prof. X: Speaking of Carnage, who do you think will win tonight’s main event between Justice and Carnage?
Amanda laughs, “Carnage is going to cut that bimbo’s tits off and choke her with them. Justice has that beating coming to her for a LONG time now.”

The Ladies of Doom deliver a Double Enzuigiri to the waking Danielle then Irish whips the dazed eldest Bradley sibling into the corner. Delta Madison drops on all fours and Endee jumps off her cousin’s spine with a Poetry in Motion. The Meta One catches Endee midair with a Spinebuster, dropping her over the Lady So Divine’s spine. Danielle shook off the cobwebs and performed a split-legged Moonsault to both members of the Ladies of Doom to cover them in a pin while Mike goes to grab his title since he arrogantly consider this match a wrap from here.

One…
Two…
Thr---NO!!

Mike sarcastically waves at Amanda as he passes by but she merely flips him off before asking, “Hey Mike, how much did you pay that bitch you call your wife to marry you?” That comment ends up being the straw that breaks the camel’s back as Mike spun around to fire back a few colorful remarks that Amanda responded with smug smile. The Meta One got the last laugh as he took one of the cups of water sitting on top of the commentary table and threw its contents into Amanda’s face. Amanda threw off her headset and got in Mike’s face as the crowd urged them both to make a move. Amanda’s tightened fists were visibly shaking from her anger reaching a boiling point, but struggled to keep her composure as she knew unleashing that anger on Mike Bradley here would give The Bradleys the win and put them one step closer to coming out of the Tag Team Tournament as the winners.

Back in the ring, Danielle struck with a Discus Clothesline to the waking Endee Leights, but the agile Diva avoids the blow with a baseball slide between Danielle’s legs. Danielle spun around to face Endee and Delta took the opportunity to leapfrog over Danielle’s spine and suicide dives out of the ring into Mike Bradley at ringside, who was still preoccupied with Amanda. Amanda applauded and sat on the edge of the commentary table while Endee hit the Enduree (Jumping Tornado DDT) on Danielle in the ring among this confusion and went for the win.

One…
Two…
Thre---NO!!

Endee pulls at her brightly blue-tinted hair in disbelief after Danielle kicks out. Mike Bradley races to assist Danielle in the ring as Delta Madison motions to return to the ring. Amanda slides off the edge of the table and takes matters into the her own hands, charging with the Fade to Black (The Gore) to the Meta One. Mike leapfrogs over the incoming Hardcore Harlot, but curses himself instantly as Amanda takes out the Lady So Divine instead. Slick Johnson notices what has transpired at ringside and instantly rewards the win for this match to the Ladies of Doom via disqualification.



Prof. X: After that altercation between the Hardcore Harlot and the Meta One, this match went sour fast.
Francine: It’s a shame that this match ended the way it did, I was enjoying seeing both of these teams in action tonight. Fortunately, best part of the match was Carter’s hands-on lesson. Doin’ alright over there, slugger?
The Carter: She wasn’t even wearing brass knuckles and it still hurts...

After the match, Danielle is shown arguing with Mike about allowing his temper to get the best of him as Primetime takes a commercial break.

Inside of the locker room, the Queen Bee Mafia sit and wait for Tia’s match against Amber Torres and Mei Long. Patiently, however, was not the description of one of the members, who was still in casual clothing and sitting on the bench with her legs crossed. She was already preparing to ask a question to her fellow Latina friend.

Morgan Davis: “So when is this match coming up, Mariah? I love my girl, Tia, but this has been the second time I haven’t had a match. I need more fun.”

Sitting next to Morgan Davis, Mariah was dressed rather casually as she was in the same predicament as the Georgia Peach since the next round bracket of the Tag Team Tournament wasn’t booked for tonight’s show. This left the Showstoppin’ Senorita and Georgia Peach with a lot of free time on their hands tonight.

Mariah looked at her watch, “It should be up soon. I just hope that Amber doesn’t take out her frustrations out on Tia after our little talk last week. If Amanda and I can be mature about our differences, she could learn to do the same…”

Mariah smirks mischievously, “You know… we have some free time tonight and I wanted to ask if you knew that Brooklyn just officially signed a contract to join the active roster? I figured you would be interested in the news since we both have some history with her, one way or another.”

“Hell, I’m down with what I saw last Primetime. Can’t stand Xion’s ass at this point. I haven’t forgotten that bullshit he pulled during that Slammiversary Rematch. Why not have someone who is actually worthy of being in the Queen Bee Mafia, unlike a few failed ones.”

“Well, Brooklyn does fit the mold for our sisterhood… but do I sense a bit of favoritism from you, Morgan? I know how ‘close’ you both were back then…”

“Mariah…” Morgan interrupts with a glance, “Brooklyn is an acquaintance of mine who actually brought me here. We’re not as….mutual...as you are with her.”

“Mmmmhmmm,” Mariah replies with her arms folded and eyebrow raised. “Okay, then… but explain this.” Mariah pulls out her iPhone from her purse and shows her a photo from a few years ago, revealing both Morgan and clearly Brooklyn in a compromising position.

She adds, “I’m surprised no one hasn’t used these on you to counter the HAM…If I were to guess, this was quite a few years ago as Brooklyn’s hair isn’t that short anymore.”

Morgan gave out a loud gasp.

Mariah folds her arms again, “C’mon out with it. We agreed on no more secrets between us. I told you both about my relationship with Cheeka… Like ALL of it, the good, bad, and the flat out O-M-G craziness.”

Tia sighs as she sits down between Mariah and Morgan, “Yall already know my dirt. Damn near felt like I was in a holding cell. But it is good to let it all out. We are practically sisters now, so we should be able to trust one another. Speaking of sisters, I sure hope I can get to yours, MiMi. I hope that Amber doesn’t take it the wrong way. I’m gonna do my best to open up her eyes and show her that she needs to stop being distracted and stand up for herself.”

Mariah looks towards Tia, who looks battle ready for tonight’s triple threat match, “Just be careful. I’m afraid that fiery Latina temper seems to be a family trait. And one more thing, Tia. Promise me that you’re not going to take it easy on her just because she’s my little sister.”

“You’ve seen how I have helped many women in this business, Tennel being the latest one, but I will do my best. It’s not that I’m gonna take it easy on her, it is just time for a wake up call. I hate seeing women who bring themselves to self destruction, when all they need is a friend or their own sister to talk to and get back on track. You tried to help her by giving her tough love. Maybe she does need to hear it from someone who is a complete stranger.”

“Like who?”, Morgan asks.

“I’m referring to Tia, of course since she has the match against her tonight. Besides, stop dodging my question, Morgan. What exactly happened between you and Brooklyn in the past? If you’re serious about wanting to bring her into this group, then we’re all going to have to be on the same page.”

Morgan rolls her eyes at Mariah’s suggestion, “Well, let’s just say I was a stripper, and I was drunk. That’s all you’re going to get.”

“Nope, I want more than that ‘Exotica’...” Mariah smirks.

“No really. I don’t even remember what happened, but as you can see, I’m as shocked as you are.”

Mariah pouts, “That’s no fun. And here I was more than ready for a good story…”

“Well, me laid up with her is more than enough tea. I was one of ya’ll hoes.”

“WAS? You still are, bestie.”

“Girl, whatever,” Morgan added with a chuckle.

Prof. X: Up next, we have the highly anticipated bout between Big E Langston and Joe Black to finally decide who will walk away from this encounter with their winning streaks in tact.
The Carter: If I were a betting man, I’d put my money on The Black Dahlia.
Francine: Funny, I wasn’t sure if you were a man at all, Carter...

** Singles Match **
- Undefeated Streaks On The Line -
"The Black Dahlia" Joe Black vs. "Five Count Fiend" Big E Langston

The match starts off with Joe Black inviting Big E Langston to a test of strength. Big E takes the bait and finds himself hitting the canvas after Black sweeps out his legs from underneath him. Joe Black looks to win this quickly by securing Big E’s shoulders to the canvas in a pin attempt.

One…
WAIT!!

Big E rolls to his feet with Joe Black in tow and delivers a Falling Powerslam (World Strongest Slam).

One…
Two…
NO!!

Joe Black manages to roll his shoulder off the canvas, but Big E continues his offense and hits the ropes. He rebounds with a Big Splash, but Big E misses the mark as the Black Dahlia moves out of harms’ way. Joe Black jumps onto Big E’s shoulders as the Five Count Fiend rose back to a vertical base and applied a Sleeper Hold with a Body Scissors.

Prof. X: Wise strategy by The Black Dahlia. He can’t continue to attempt to play the lottery against Big E’s power game. It’s much more sensible to wear him down like this.
Francine: Of course. That strategy worked wonders for Stacie Sanchez-Torres during her debut earlier tonight.
The Carter: She’s already bragging about it backstage. Consider me a fan of her already.

Big E began to weaken in the hold, but he attempts to scrape off the nuisance from his spine by ramming full speed into the corner. He slammed Joe Black into the corner upon impact, only for Black to maintain his grip with the hold. Big E repeats his effort three more times, with Joe Black hanging on with the Sleeper still applied firmly. Big E then drops to his knees.

The Carter: All of that running around is finally taking it’s toll on Big E.
Francine: Looks like Joe Black is bringing Big E down to ‘your’ level, Carter…

Big E summons the willpower to stand up once more and performs a Backpack Stunner to remove Joe Black from his back. Both Superstars are down and out on the canvas as Referee Jimmy Korderas makes the double knockout count.

Francine: Well, that’s one way to get a monkey off your back…
Prof. X: Unfortunately, that took everything Big E had left and neither of these Superstars can capitalize here.

1…

2…

3…

4…

5…

6…

7…

8…

Both Superstars stagger to their feet. Big E makes the first move, charging in with the E Train (Running Shoulder Block) as Joe Black stood on jelly legs. Somehow, Joe Black is able to react in time and counter with The Black Dahlia (Jumping Double Knee Facebuster). Black crawls over Big E and drapes his body over the Five Count Fiend in a pin.

One…
Two…
Th---NO!!

Joe Black looks on in disbelief as he argues the count with Referee Jimmy Korderas. Black quickly regains his composure and beckons Big E to his feet. Joe Black unloads with a Super Kick to the waking Big E Langston, only for Big E to answer with Belly to Belly Suplex. Big E beats on his chest repeatedly before removing the straps of his singlet, hyping up the crowd in anticipation of The Big Ending. Big E wastes no time to lift onto his shoulder and drive Joe Black into the canvas with The Big Ending. Big E makes the cover.

One…
Two…
Three!!!



Prof. X: The winning streak of The Black Dahlia ends here tonight while the ongoing legend of Big E Langston’s streak continues.

After Primetime returns from commercial break, the cameras show reigning GZWA Women’s Champion “The Ultimate Vixen” Raven watching the Divas make their way to the ring on the backstage flatscreen monitor before switching back to the commentary team at ringside.

Prof. X: With Final Encounter right around corner, several Divas have been looking to impress GZWA Management that they are ready to step up to challenge our reigning Women’s Champion.
Francine: AJ Lee has been campaigning her case a lot lately. While I get where she’s coming from, but I suppose she didn’t get the memo about the former champion having a rematch clause.
The Carter: Hey, just because AJ has been tormenting Lise Starr for the last few months doesn’t mean that she should be left out of consideration for a title shot.
Francine: I’m not saying that. If you can process anything in that empty space between your ears that’s called your brain. I’m only saying that there is a ladder to climb and she will get what she deserves in due time.
Prof. X: This match isn’t about AJ Lee, but you do have a point, Francine. Imagine at the tension between these three Divas. If either Amber or Tia Brooks manage to defeat Mei Long, I’m sure GZWA Management would be more likely to consider them a suitable contender to challenge for the title. On the other hand, Mei Long could definitely use this momentum to boost her own confidence on the road to Final Encounter.

*** Triple Threat Match ***
"The Beautiful Dragon" Mei Long (w/ “The Cuban Hooligan” Rocky Romero) vs. Amber Torres vs. "Straight-Edge Vixen" Tia Brooks

After the opening bell, all three Divas watch each other cautiously before Amber Torres and Tia Brooks look towards the former Women’s Champion. Amber Torres and Tia Brooks charge towards Mei Long with a Double Clothesline, but the Beautiful Dragon evades with a baseball slide before springing from the ropes with an Asai Moonsault to pin both Divas to the canvas. Referee Jacqueline Moore makes the count.

One…
NO!!

Amber and Tia kick out in unison and return to their feet as Mei Long races to strike first. Both Divas send her over the top rope with a Double Suplex. The Beautiful Dragon manages to land on the ring apron but before she could take action, Amber and Tia send her flying into the ringside barricade with a Double Dropkick. Rocky Romero races to Mei Long’s side and fans her to help her recuperate to the dismay of the live crowd.

Prof. X: Well, that’s one way to take the former Women’s Champion out of the equation.
Francine: Gotta love a man who stands by his woman…
The Carter: I’m standing next you, Franny.
Francine: I am NOT, nor will I EVER be, YOUR woman, Carter. Get that fantasy out of your mind now and forever as it’s not happening.

Back inside the ring, Amber Torres and Tia Brooks share a high five before staring down. Amber makes the first move in the form of a kick to the midsection before executing a Stunner. Tia Brooks counters with a Straight Jacket Neckbreaker. Tia Brooks rolls Amber over and applies a Surfboard Stretch to the young Cruz sister as Mei Long shook off the cobwebs at ringside. Amber’s screams of pain fill the air before Mei Long silences her with a Slingshot Somersault Senton, landing on both Amber and Tia Brooks in the process. Mei Long mocks Amber with an Eddie Guerrero-style dance before hitting the ropes and rebounding with a Tilt-a-whirl Headscissor to the waking Tia Brooks. To Tia’s surprise, Mei Long transitions into an application of an Octopus Stretch.

Prof. X: She’s definitely sending a message to AJ Lee… There’s no coincidence about that.
Francine: Where’s the harm in that? She’s only showing AJ that she’s not the only one who can utilize that hold. If she takes offense to that, then that’s her problem.
The Carter: Franny, you’re missing the point. It’s VERY disrespectful to use another wrestler’s signature move.
Francine: Did she invent that move? I think not. It’s fair game for use here just like a clothesline or a sleeper hold.

Tia Brooks drops to one knee as she succumbs to the pain of the hold. Before she could submit, Amber struck Mei Long over the back of the head with a 540 Kick. The blow left the Beautiful Dragon stunned long enough for the Straight-Edge Vixen to retaliate with a Standing Moonsault Side Slam into a cover.

One…
Two…
NO!!

Amber breaks the pin with a Handstand Leg Drop to the grounded Divas before hitting the ropes and returning with a Rebound Clothesline to the rising Tia Brooks. Tia ducks the swing and responds with a Blindside Kick (French TKO), but Amber evades and pins the Straight-Edge Vixen to the canvas with a backslide pin.

Francine: Maybe that ‘tough love’ that Mariah gave her last week was exactly what the doctor ordered to put an end to Amber’s string of losses as of late.

One…
Two…
WAIT!!

Tia reverses the pin with a Ranhei, but Amber wisely chooses to release her backslide pin. Tia commando rolls back to her feet -- right into the pending ATLien Assault (Jumping Implant DDT)

Prof. X: You could be right, Francine. Amber is about to walk away with a win here.

One…
Two…
Thre---NO!!

Just as Jacqueline's hand comes down for the three, Tia gets her shoulder up last second, breaking Amber’s pin. An irate Amber glares at Jacqueline and can be seen mouthing “WTF” her way. Amber turns around picking Tia up by her hair when suddenly the Titantron cues to a live feed from backstage as the GZWA Women's Champion is seen walking down the hall in one of her more tighter number with legs out for the God’s! She stops as she approaches and walks in Leon Torres’ lockerroom only to find his son, Dash. Putting on a smiling face, Raven greets the little guy warmly.

“Hey there, cutie. You remember me, right?”

“Yeah. You’re the lady from my birthday party. I don’t know your name, but my mommy just calls you ‘Daddys Whore’, whatever that means.”

“That bitch.”

*Raven didn’t think twice about saying that with Dash next to her*

“Look, hun. You might have noticed that your parents are fighting a lot more right?”

“Dash nods*

“I’ve seen that before in my parents and I think you need to know that truth instead of being kept in the dark. Your parents are getting a divorce and it’s ALL your mothers fault. She has a problem with your father and I being friends and instead of working things out she wants to submit you to the life of only seeing your dad on the weekends, random ‘uncles’ running in & out of the house and being mad at the world because of your unstable household. Poor thing.”

*Raven kisses Dash on the forehead, as if the talk helped, before he runs off to the back of the thought of his parents not being together. Raven giggles in the sick satisfaction in making the kid cry and putting the blame on Amber. Her entire tones changes Leon walk in the room immediately seeing red as he spots Raven. The Ultimate Vixen Oscar worthy skills come in as she puts on a sad face walking up to Leon*

“What the hell are you doing in here, Raven? Where’s my son?”

“Leon, I hate the way I spoke to you last time about something so serious. I try to put up this front like I don’t care and treated the situation like it was nothing but I hate myself for getting the operation without telling you and I-I-I hate that it had to come to this between us & I’m sorry.”

*Done with rambling on, Raven ran up to Leon throwing her arms around his neck for a hug. She lets the fake, but believable, water works flow while burying her face in Leon’s neck. He tries to remain mad at Raven but sighs as he soon gives in embracing her into a tighter hug before closing the lockerroom door, cutting the feed from the camera*

Amber’s mouth drops as she can't believe what has just happened in front of her. Amber is suddenly rolled up from behind by Mei. Still in shock Amber is unable to kick out in time.

One…
Two…
Three!!



Jacqueline quickly holds up Mei Long's left arm announcing her the winner.

After the match, Tia Brooks quickly grabs a mic.

"Amber, hold up, I need to talk to you. I know that you haven't been in the best of moods, especially now, but just hear me out. I have been in your position before, not exactly to the tea, but a similar situation. I totally know what you are going through. I've talked to Mariah and since you wont listen to her, how about someone who doesn't really know you? You need to stop being so distracted, that is why things are going the way they are. You are not staying focused. Don't let Raven get in your head, that is what she wants. Believe me! All I am doing is trying to help you."

Amber still stunned at her lost simply sits, ignoring Tia and then stands up face to face with her. Amber can be heard on Tia's mic.

"Help me? Help me? Who the hell do you think you are? Just because Mariah sent you to babysit me you think you can tell me what to do?"

Tia raises the microphone to reply but Amber pie faces Tia and then follows it up with a hard slap sending a shocked Tia down to the mat. Tia sits briefly and then gives chase to Amber who quickly scatters from the ring. Amber can be seen mouthing "I’m sorry" as she slowly backs up the ramp headed towards the back.

** Singles Match **
"The Unholy Angel" Kayda Erikson vs. "King of Controversy" Genesis

After what had happened earlier in the night between Kayda Erikson and Genesis, there are no words to describe the tension and emotions running high as the bell rings to signal the beginning of the match. The second the bell is rung, Erikson flies across the ring and spears Genesis. The King of Controversy stumbles a few steps and clutches his stomach, but doesn't fall as Kayda immediately recovers and follows up with a drop kick, which succeeds in knocking Genesis off his feet. Kayda attempts to lock in a crucifix armbar, but Genesis headbutts her, and is able to rise to his feet. As he does, he kicks The Unholy Angel in the stomach, knocking the wind out of her as she tries to grab at the rope for support.

Genesis backs a few steps up in preparation for Boom...Headshot, but Erikson gets her wits about her last minute and is able to avoid the maneuver. They both are on their feet now, as Kayda doesn't waste a second attempting another attack, running towards Genesis in an attempted crossbody attack but he catches her and violently throws her across the ring with a T-bone suplex. The King of Controversy smiles as she crashes onto the mat, and he plays to the crowd extending his arms out in Kayda's "Sieben" taunt making a mockery of her. Meanwhile, The Unholy Angel lies motionless, as Genesis laughs before dropping his hands making his way over to Kayda and covering her for the pin.

ONE...
TWO...
NO!

Genesis lifts Kayda's shoulder off the mat, before the three count can be made. It becomes obvious in that second, that this match isn't about a victory. It's about getting the upper hand and humiliating Kayda even more than he already has if that's even possible. Kayda starts to show signs of life, as Genesis pulls her to her feet by her hair. Kayda tries to free herself from his grasp, as he attempts to start a trio of suplexes, but Kayda kicks him in the gut, causing him to double over and take a step back allowing her a few seconds to get her brain back in the match. Genesis recovers quickly, but Kayda leans back into the ropes and springs off them connecting with a sick flip neckbreaker slam. With Genesis grounded, Kayda goes for Die Siebente Sünde, but is unable to lock it in successfully. She immediately applies her secondary finisher, Subway 7 (Dragon Sleeper with Body Scissors). Almost immediately, Genesis shoots his hand out for the ropes, grabbing the bottom one. Even though, his free hand is gripping the rope, Kayda continues to keep the move applied. The ref begins a five count, but Kayda doesn't care continuing to wrench Genny's neck.

ONE...
TWO...
THREE...
FOUR...
FIVE...

RING THE BELL!

Count to seven and I'll break it. Kayda demands with a smile, continuing to keep Subway 7 locked in. The ref is slightly hesitant, but continues the count.

SIX...
SEVEN...

Das ist nicht gut genug! (That is not good enough!) Start over...and do it in German this time!

The ref has had enough as he motions for the disqualification. The bell rings and "Hail to the King" by Avenged Sevenfold pumps through the speakers signifying the DQ win by Genesis. Immediately, Kayda released her finisher and gets in the ref's face screaming about getting disqualified. The sound of Genesis laughing causes Kayda to turn her attention back to him, as he's using the ropes to pull himself back up. Obviously, The Unholy Angel has snapped tonight after everything that Genesis had forced her to do. Kayda kicks Genesis in the stomach as hard as she can, and grabbing his hair follows up with Sieben Mal, smashing his head into the turnbuckle, counting in German every time his head bounces off. She gets to three before several referees slide into the ring attempting to restrain the raging redhead while Genesis shakes it off again smiling a sick Cheshire cat grin. Erikson screams at the refs begging them to let her go, but they continue to confine her the turnbuckle area. Genesis, seeing this, takes a few steps towards her and waves the photograph in her face. She looks away screaming and cursing at him in German as he continues to laugh, exiting the ring. The refs expand out a bit to all The Unholy Angel a little more room as Genesis heads back up the ramp with both the photograph and envelope in his hands. Kayda races to the ropes, continuing to scream at him and attempting to exit the ring, but is held back by security as we go to a commercial break.

*Backstage, the camera shows Raven now seated on Leon’s lap giggling as he whispers in her ear*

“Stop it. You know I’m with Victor. Plus if I do and your son walks out on us, YOU’RE gonna have to explain why my mouth is full with daddy's d-”

*Raven gets cut off by Amber barging in as pissed off as can be.*

"I'm only gonna say this once. Leon Dashon Torres, get your hands off that heffer!"

"Ooooh, the middle name. I think she's really mad this time."

*Leon throws his hands up immediately as Amber looks at him with anger in her eyes.

"It's bad enough week after week I have to come out here and deal with all of your interactions with my husband. But now you have the balls to step out and touch my son? To come into our locker room and fill his head with your lies. Raven you really are a tramp. You really are nothing but trash. I'm so fed up with you Raven. No matter what I do you always seem to be there, with that bitch face and sarcastic smile of yours."

*Amber start shaking her head*

"Am I not good enough for you Leon? Have I not been faithfully yours the last seven years?"

*Amber turns back towards the door.*

"Raven you might be wrong about a lot of things but you just had to be right about one thing."

*Amber turns back around fighting her tears as she looks at Raven still in Leon's lap grinning ear to ear.*

"I'm leaving you and I'm taking our son with me. You'll hear from my lawyers in the morning goodbye. Enjoy your little toy."

*Amber looks at Raven and Leon with disgust and then walks out. Leon in shock cant believe what has happened. Raven rolls her eyes and then puts her arms back around Leon's Neck*

"Wow .. Check out Betty Whine."

"Kat..."

"Hurt Cobain?"

"Look at what you've done! Do you not care you just broke my family up? Jesus Christ Raven, get off me!"

*Leon pushes Raven off him onto the floor. Raven got back up to her noticing the change in Leon's change in tone from just earlier ago.*

"Words I've never heard you say when we were together. But what's changed? You're marriage was clearly never an issue for us before so why now, Papi?"

*Condescending as ever as she approaches Leon with a smirk on her face.*

"I got to go get my wife back. Bye."

*Leon stands up and runs out the door. The camera fades out on a shot of Raven shrugging and rolling her eyes in an “Oh well.” manner.*

*** END OF PART TWO ***

[Xion Zeros]

---

Backstage before her match we spot Nikki Bella who was getting warmed up from her match, who should be trying to think of a way out of this.

"What the hell am I going to do?" she thought to herself.

Feeling the nerves beginning to get her, she knows there is no way out in this. Maybe there way a small possible way I could win this?

She thought, "No,stop it Nikki..."

She says beginning to pace back and forth trying to control herself, she hears something.

"I-Is anybody there?"

She asked looking around some more, thinking its just her imagination. But once again heard the same noise and turns around.

"Anybody there? Look, I'm not in the mood..."

Nikki turned back around and bumped into Samuel Shaw.



"Hello, Nikki. I hear you have quite the dilemma on your hands. Your 'partner' left you all alone to suffer all alone in the Tag Team Tournament... while your 'other' partner wouldn't even bat an eye to help you... since she's so caught up shouting 'YES!' in a variety of inappropriate situations and environments."

He caressed her cheeks with a gloved hand before continuing, "You're in luck. My 'partner' and I recently separated and I'm looking to take up a new interest in my life. Would you like to be that one who fills that void in my chest?" He pets at her hair before grabbing a few locks and savors her aroma while he awaits her answer.

Nikki looks at this new...Superstar? She was a little weird, okay a lot weird, just by staring a few feet away from him. She tries to back away leaning back on one of the equipment boxes. She looks behind her before realized, she was backing up into him and gasps a bit.

"S-sorry about that..."

Nikki knows she doesn't want to fight in that match alone but know she can do a hell of a lot better than him as her partner.

"How do I let him down easy?" she asked herself.

As from what she seen with Christy Hemme she doesn't want to turn him wrong or say something she'll regret later. She takes a deep breath trying to form this in the nicest way possible.

"U-uh, t-thanks for the offer Samuel...was it? I-I know I'm in a rut, but I don't..." She began to utter as she tried to find a way out of his sight as she backs away slowly.

"I don't think you're a kind of 'partner'. I need for this tournament....thank you for the offer but I-I'm gonna go. My match is coming up next and I need to go get ready," she says before walking away to the nearest exit. 

Samuel Shaw watches her hastily make her exit, he smirks, "I'll be touch... if you happen to change your mind."

Once out the door, Nikki broke out into a sprint down the hall.

He notices her hair brush on the counter and takes a strand of her hair. Holding it up to his face, he savors his prize and adds, "I'm going to be MUCH closer than you think, my dear."

***Tag Team Tournament Preliminary Round***
Extreme Juggalos ("Straight-Edge Juggalo" Ryan Kendrick & "High Flying Extremis" Enigma) vs. Nikki Bella & ??

Prof. X: I can’t believe that Nikki Bella is going through with this without a partner.
Francine: She should have asked Summer Rae for help. Hell, she had Samuel Shaw come flat out and offer his help earlier tonight.
The Carter: Shaw? He’s a creepy bastard… Too bad Nikki couldn’t have arranged to have some twin magic in GZWA!
Francine: Carter. I honestly don’t see the difference between you and him…

The returning Ryan Kendrick and The Enigma both stand in the ring talking with the referee as Nikki Bella walks down to the ring slowly. She steps into the ring cautiously and alone as the Extreme Juggalos throw their hands up in disbelief.

Francine: Why are they complaining? Any other team would kill for an easy win into the next round of this tournament.

Both Kendrick and Enigma turn their backs to Nikki as they complain to Referee Slick Johnson. Nikki Bella grew annoyed that these two Superstars wouldn’t treat her as an equal in the ring and delivered a Dropkick to the spine of Kendrick and rolled up Enigma into the School Boy pin before they both knew what was going on. Slick shrugged his shoulders and made the count.

One…
Two…
T---NO!!!

Prof. X: Boy, that would have been the biggest upset in GZWA history if Nikki managed to pull that off.
The Carter: Nikki can roll me up like that ANYTIME she wants.

The Enigma kicks out as Nikki Bella smirks confidently. Ryan Kendrick and The Enigma look at each other silently and agree that the kid gloves are off. Kendrick shrugs and steps out onto the ring apron as decreed by Referee Slick Johnson. The Enigma makes the first move with a Spinning Heel Kick, but Nikki ducks the blow and hits the ropes. She rebounds with a Flying Clothesline only for The Enigma to respond with an inverted Atomic Drop before positioning her for the Zero Connection (Twist of Fate). Nikki surprises the live crowd as she counters with the Rack Attack (Backbreaker Rack Drop), but Ryan Kendrick intervenes with Chop Block to cause her drop The Enigma prematurely on top of her in another pin.

One…
Two…
WAIT!!



All eyes turn towards the entrance ramp as Samuel Shaw is shown walking down the entrance ramp.



Nikki Bella backs away towards the corner. Both of the Extreme Juggalos lean against the ropes blocking his way into the ring. That doesn’t stop Shaw as he strides around the ring, studying Nikki Bella as he tightened his gloves. Shaw motioned to slide into the ring, but his advances are halted by the music blasting through the speakers.



John Cena races through the crowd and hops over the security barricade to tackle Samuel Shaw to the floor as the crowd goes wild.



Prof. X: John Cena is here tonight? Who would have guessed that he would show up here tonight?
Francine: Honestly? He was my 3rd guess…
The Carter: I guess I don’t have to put on my ring gear and head out there to help Nikki…
Francine: Please, you weren’t going to do a DAMN thing, Carter.

Cena hurls Shaw into the steel steps and unhinges them upon impact. Cena hoists the steps over his head, ready to strike, but Shaw flees into the ring. The Extreme Juggalos greet Shaw with a Double Clothesline, but Shaw expertly evades and heads straight towards Nikki Bella. Nikki surprises Shaw by holding her ground and kicking him directly in the groin. Shaw drops to his knees in pain as Nikki backs away. He held her in place by grabbing onto her wrist firmly with one hand. The Extreme Juggalos readied up a Double Super Kick combination as Cena slid into the ring to Nikki’s aid. Shaw wisely pulled Nikki into the crosshairs as both Nikki and Cena were hit by the stereo Super Kicks while Samuel Shaw rolled out the ring and fled to safety.

Ryan Kendrick and The Enigma merely shrugged their shoulders at this mishap and cover both Nikki and Cena.

One…
Two…
Three!!!

After the match, CM Punk is shown backstage chatting with Big E Langston, who is coming off his big win earlier tonight.

CM Punk: “I know you’ve already went through hell and back tonight, but I need a huge favor and I was wondering if …”

Big E cuts Punk off, “I know what you’re going to ask, and you can count me in. You’re actually doing me a favor. I have been dying to get into that Tag Team Tournament anyway but couldn’t find the right… how did you put it? Oh that’s right… Dancing partner for it. I’m no Summer Rae, but I’m game if you are ready to Fandango.”

CM Punk smirks, “Funny, but I haven’t faded into obscurity. You can ask Lise. I’m like the Energizer Bunny - I keep going and going and going and…”

Big E: “TMI, but I get it - you’re good. And I’m DAMN good in that ring as well.”

The scene closes with Punk and Big E shaking hands before fading out for the commercial break.

*** Main Event (1 out of 2): Non-Title Match ***
"The People's Champion" Hano Eiyu vs. GZWA World Heavyweight Champion "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles

Prof. X: I have to admit, I LOVE seeing these two Superstars square off against each other. Ever since winning last year’s Riot Match at Riot Control, Hano Eiyu has stepped up his game to a new level.
Francine: That’s a very true statement, Professor. It’s only a matter of time before he’s holding championship gold.
The Carter: Ain’t that the damn truth, but one thing’s certain - AJ Styles isn’t going to give up that title without a fight.

The match starts after The Phenomenal One and People’s Champion exchange pleasantries in the form of a handshake out of respect. Styles starts things off with a Discus Clothesline. Hano Eiyu responds by ducking underneath the incoming blow and hits the ropes before rebounding with a Springboard Back Elbow. Styles catches Hano Eiyu out of the air and counters with a German Suplex followed by a Belly-to-Back Wheelbarrow Facebuster. Styles rolls the People’s Champ over into a pin.

One…
Two…
NO!!!

Hano Eiyu kicks Styles away and kips back up to his feet. Hano Eiyu then delivers a Running Dropkick to the waking Styles, but the Phenomenal One has other plans in mind. Styles answers with a Styles Clash to counter. Hano Eiyu flips Styles overhead and capitalizes with Fisherman Buster. The People’s Champ climbed the nearby turnbuckle and motioned for the Mikadzuki (Shooting Star Press). Styles kipped up to his feet and struck with a Springboard Enzuigiri before Hano Eiyu had the opportunity to take flight. Styles drills the People’s Champ to the canvas with an Avalanche Brainbuster.

Chants of “Holy Shit!” fill the air as Hano Eiyu looks completely out of it while AJ Styles takes the opportunity to catch his breath.

Prof. X: This match could be over right here…
Francine: There’s no need to drag this out. AJ Styles and Hano Eiyu are no strangers to each other in that ring. I wouldn’t be surprised if they don’t already have the ‘download’ on each other.
The Carter: The download? Don’t tell me they have been pirating music on PirateBay!?
Francine: No, stupid. Download as in they know their respective fighting styles and habits.
Prof. X: That could be true, Francine, but Styles hasn’t been champion for this long without knowing how to adapt to the situation. I wouldn’t put it out of Hano Eiyu’s character to learn to do so as well.

Styles took the opportunity to step out onto the ring apron and returns with a Springboard 450 Splash to the grounded Hano Eiyu. Styles goes for the win with a cover.

One…
Two…
Thr--WAIT!!

Hano Eiyu reverses the pin with a La Magistral pin of his own.

One…
Two...
WAIT!!

Styles rolls to his feet with Hano Eiyu positioned on his shoulders in a Backbreaker Rack. He then performs a Rack Bomb (Backbreaker Rack to Sitout Powerbomb). Hano Eiyu dropkicks Styles in the face before he could go for the cover. Hano Eiyu then hits the ropes and rebounds with an Asai Moonsault to the waking Phenomenal One. Styles runs underneath and hits the ropes while Hano Eiyu landed safely behind him. Styles rebounded with a Springboard Flying Forearm Smash, in which Hano Eiyu countered with a Shinjuku Incident (Ura-Nage) to leave the Phenomenal One flat on his back in the center of the ring. The People’s Champ looked to the cheering fans before pointing to turnbuckle. The People’s Champ motioned for the Nexus Polaris (Shooting Star Leg Drop), but he’s shoved off the turnbuckle by the “King of Controversy” Genesis, who crawled out from underneath the ramp and hid from the Referee Earl Hebner’s field of vision. Hano Eiyu fell in front of the waking AJ Styles, who capitalized with a Styles Clash and rolled Hano Eiyu into a pin upon impact.

One…
Two…
Three!!!



Genesis gave Styles a thumbs up from ringside while Earl Hebner raised his arm in victory.

Francine: I think someone is trying to get some brownie points before Final Encounter…

---

After the match, the Primetime cameras quickly switch to the scene backstage where a bloodied and bruised Big E Langston is shown being assaulted backstage. G-Money Briggs powerbombs Big E against the lockers before driving the Five Count Fiend to the unprotected floor. The Enforcers shove the cameraman out of their way, uttering the words, “Looks like someone should've bought some 'Oops!' insurance for Punk's buddy!”

Prof. X: “Oh man, Big E doesn’t look like he’s in any condition to help Punk later tonight.”

*** Non-Title Match ***
"The Black Widow" AJ Lee vs. GZWA Women's Champion "The Ultimate Vixen" Raven

Prof. X: It’s the moment that GZWA Diva fans have been waiting for, the Black Widow squaring off against the reigning GZWA Women’s Champion.
Francine: Don’t forget that this is a non-title match. Mr. Zeros was kind enough to give her this match period.
The Carter: Franny, you can’t deny that AJ has been slowly skipping her way closer towards being considered a threat for the title. She’s already skipped her way into my heart.
Francine: I’m sure she’s not going to break into your house, tie you up, and violate you with foreign objects as eagerly as she was with Lise Starr.
The Carter: I should start calling you, Dream-Smasher, Franny…

AJ Lee is already in the ring and eagerly awaiting the arrival of the GZWA Women’s Champion. To AJ’s dismay, The Ultimate Vixen is taking her sweet time walking to the ring. Raven motions to climb into the ring, but she shook her head and strode around the ring at ringside to chorus of boos from the live crowd. Eventually, AJ Lee grew impatient from Raven’s lollygagging at ringside before she allows her temper to get the best of her as she pursed the champion at ringside from behind. Raven spun around and smashed AJ over the face with the Women’s Championship.

Francine: Well, at least now AJ can’t say that she never experienced championship gold…
The Carter: Enough with that, Franny. This isn’t funny, I don’t want to see this match end like this.

Raven bows unceremoniously to the dismay of this live crowd, who boo even louder after this turn of events. Raven drags AJ into the ring and skips around her prone body before covering her.

Prof. X: Is this even necessary? It’s so downright disrespectful on the behalf of the Women’s Champion.

One…
Two…
Thre---NO!!!

Raven rolls her eyes at AJ’s shoulder getting off the canvas. Raven stood back up and motioned for the Bitch Kick (Chick Kick) as the Black Widow begins to stir on the canvas. Raven beckoned AJ to her feet before going for a swing but getting a miss as AJ evades the kick, hits the ropes, and rebounds with Tilt-a-Whirl DDT to drive The Ultimate Vixen face-first into the canvas. AJ mocks the champ by skipping around the ring.

The Carter: Now the shoe is on the other foot! It’s AJ’s turn to showboat! I’m loving this!
Francine: Oh please, Carter. You would be entertained if the girls were out here playing pattycake.

Raven stopped AJ’s theatrics with an Elbow Smash to AJ’s spine before slamming her to the canvas with a Inverted Samoan Drop. AJ crawled on all-fours after hitting the canvas. Raven shows her disdain for the Black Widow by kicking her in the ribs to send her rolling across the ring. AJ uses the nearby ropes to pull herself up to her feet as Raven loomed closer to strike. AJ stopped her advance with a well-placed Drop Toe Hold which dropped The Ultimate Vixen onto the ropes. AJ exited the ring and licked the palm of her hand before slapping Raven across the face. The Black Widow hopped back onto the ring apron and delivered a Running Facewash to Raven. Raven’s face bounces off the corner post and leaves her prone on her back.

Francine: I’m sure that’s not the first time that Raven has been in that position tonight…

A wicked grin washes over AJ’s face as she revels in The Ultimate Vixen’s pain. She adds to that pain with a Slingshot Mule Kick directed to The Ultimate Vixen’s shoulder. An audible gasp of pain escapes Raven’s lips upon impact while AJ goes for the cover.

One…
Two…
Thr---NO!!!

Raven barely manages to get her ailing shoulder off the canvas, but AJ takes control by applying a Fujiwara Armbar in a smooth transition. Raven tries to reach for the ropes with her free arm, but AJ pushes them away from the ropes towards the center of the ring.

Prof. X: I’m The Ultimate Vixen didn’t think that this match would wind up like this when she came out here tonight. If the Women’s Championship were on the line, she would be in danger of losing the gold.
Francine: The harsh reality of the matter is that the gold is NOT on the line tonight, Professor. Try all she might, this little spider is going to get washed down the drain. I guarantee it.
The Carter: You sure are high on The Ultimate Vixen, Franny.
Francine: And you have to be high if you think that Raven is going to falter to a challenge like this.

Raven’s arm is shaking as Jacqueline watches her closely for any signs to show that she is ready to submit. Raven slams her hand on the canvas and cartwheels back to her feet. She counters with the Scheiße (Side Effect). Raven takes a bow, instead of going for a pin and receives a kick to the face from the Black Widow. Raven reels holding her face as AJ returns to her feet and capitalizes with a Sliced Bread #2 (Shiranui). Somehow, The Ultimate Vixen manages to counter with a Cobra Clutch Backbreaker. With AJ writhing in pain from the vicious Backbreaker, Raven applies the Ask For More (Haas of Pain/Modified Inverted Figure Four Leglock) to the Black Widow.

Prof. X: The human body isn’t supposed to bend that way!
The Carter: AJ sure is flexible if she hasn’t managed to submit to this hold already!
Francine: Who knows, maybe she’s had a lot of practice in that position? You know with her unique history and all…
The Carter: I hope that’s not another cheap crack at AJ, Franny.
Francine: Of course not, sunshine.

AJ still resists the hold while Raven continues to contort her spine in angles not meant to bent, but the Black Widow manages to grab onto the ropes with both hands. The Ultimate Vixen refuses to release the hold as Referee Jacqueline Moore starts the illegal hold count.

One…

Two...

Three…

Four…

Five!!!

Jacqueline signals for the bell while AJ hasn’t let go of the ropes while Raven continues to keep the hold applied. As a result, AJ is rewarded the victory after Raven’s refusal to break the hold.



*After the multiple bell ringing and the ref eventually giving the victory to AJ, Raven still refuses to release the hold. By now, she’s holding AJ’s foot with one hand while reaching back, pulling AJ’s hair with the other wrenching the hold as much as she can. The ref is finally able to yank Raven off the hold, but she swings her leg back, low blowing him. She drops back down re-applying the hold once more, this time using the ropes to her advantage. More officials rus from the back to finally drag Raven off of AJ Lee once more. Raven only smiles as she orders one of them to get fetch her title. She snatches her gold, holding it in the air as that’s all she needs to celebrate her victory. Looking down at AJ’s body, she smiles before grabbing a mic from ringside, catching her breath before she speaks.*

“Are you happy now, April? All your talk of taking MY title title, ripping my throat out and shutting me up & you finally got your match to prove yourself. But after all your bullshit & disrespect, how gracious is your Women’s Champion to see fit to give you a win? But I’m sure you’ll spin this in a way to lessen my generosity, when, in fact, you should be damn grateful I even stepped through those ropes to look you in the face!”

*Raven looks away from AJ to address the crowd*

“You people should also be thanking me! Katie Kaboom finally had a chance to match her bite to her pint sized bark and I showed you people AND her why you shouldn’t even be a THOUGHT when it comes to this title!

Sweetie, you’re cute for the whole ‘I’m a crazy stalker’ bit but that shit runs dry after a while when there’s only one name on your victim list from the past two years. You talk about Moi living in the past, but really you’re the one stuck in the past with this lesbian obsession with Lise. She doesn’t want anything to do do with you. She doesn’t love you. She doesn’t even LIKE you. She doesn’t want you in her life anymore, but what do you do? You persist and push to rekindle something from the PAST!

Or is it not your past friendship with Lise you want back, but your past relationship with Punk? Sure, when a friend finds someone they can love forever you’re suppose to be happy for them, but you? Oh, no. You miss the days when it was you on top of Punk, crying out for him to call you Lita. I don’t know what-”

*Raven stops mid sentence dropping her title and mic to the mat and AJ charges towards her full of rage. In one swift motion, Raven knocks her block the hell off with a dead-on punch to the face. AJ drops to the mat and Raven picks up the mic to continue*

“I don’t know what complex you have to make you THINK that you're in my league for an instant title shot, but you need to snap out of that delusion quick, fast and in a damn hurry. Talking about taking what’s MINE will get you nowhere when you don’t even have the guts to step up to my face about it.”

*Raven grabs her title as she drops to her knees down to AJ’s level. Raven pushes the title in AJ’s face, violently rubbing it in*

“Listen and listen well, April. As long as I’m champion, and you can bet your pictures of Lise with the mouth cut out that it will be a long time, this is as close as you will ever get to this title. You will forever remain an afterthought! Ya dig? So get as many clips and photos of this moment because you will never have another like it again. Bet on it.”

*Raven tosses the mic against AJ’s skull, causing a static feedback to echo the arena before noticing AJ Lee beginning to stir again. Raven backs up to the corner getting ready to Flatline (Punt Kick) AJ skull across the field, but the Black Widow rolls out of harm’s way and knocks Raven’s feet from underneath her with a low dropkick. The Black Widow then connects with a Shining Wizard to the face of the Ultimate Vixen.

AJ Lee slides under the ropes and poses at ringside, gesturing a “championship” symbol to her waist. She begins to skip then stops to pose more, however her celebration ends when a fan wearing a black CM Punk hoodie, a NYC cap and baggy jeans jumps over the barricade and elbows AJ in the head from behind. The fan puts their hoodie down to reveal an infuriated Lise Starr who throws away the cap and heading towards AJ. AJ looks up to see Lise and her eyes grow wide before she tries to crawl away only for Lise to pounce on top of her and throw hard fists into her face. AJ begins to fights back, throwing her own punches until Lise grabs a handful of her hair and throwing her into the barricade, back first, making AJ roar in pain.

In a rapid movement, Lise walks towards the ring apron and lifts up the cover, taking out a steel chair. “I’M NOT FINISHED WITH YOU” is screamed by Lise who runs to the grounded AJ and smacks the steel chair onto her back. AJ drops forward on the ground, punching the concrete while gritting her teeth. Lise continues to smack chair shots into AJ’s back, then throws the chair away, clearly showing she has other plans. Grabbing AJ up by the hair, Lise drags her towards the steel steps and smashes her face into it repeatedly. AJ cries out in agony as Lise starts to grind her face onto the steel steps then grabbing AJ by the face and screaming more insults at her former best friend.

The dazed AJ’s eyes appear glazed over for a moment before she turns them to look at Lise, and in act of desperation, she spits blood from her internal bleeding in her face, using Lise’s blindness to escape from her grip and crawl away, where she uses the barricade to return to her feet. Unfortunately for her, Lise is able to dry her eyes quickly and chases after the now running AJ, where she dropkicks her from the side. The impact of the dropkick sends AJ towards the barricade, even making her flip over it and smack face first into the floor on the other side.

Grinning, Lise Starr jumps over the barricade looking down at AJ and raising her foot back, then delivering a hard kick to the ribs of her. Lise looks around quickly, then notices a nearby male fan with a cup in their hand. She takes out a ten dollar note from her pocket and offers it to the fan in exchange for the drink. The fan instantly nods, taking the money and giving his drink to Lise. “Oh hey, it’s lemonade! Here’s some sugar, bitch!” Lise yells at AJ before she spits in the cup and pours it all over AJ’s face. AJ turns herself around and begins retching on the ground as Lise once again grabs her by the now wet hair.

Lise drags AJ further into the crowd, occasionally throwing punches into her face while now going up the stairs, as AJ can only cough. She looks at the steel rail placed in the middle of the stairs which causes a sick smile to slowly grow on her face. Striking AJ in the head with a final punch, Lise lifts up AJ and throws her throat first onto the rail. Lise poses by raising her left fist into the air, before quickly making her way out of the crowd and presumably making her way out of the arena while AJ lies with her throat still on the rail, wheezing loudly while coughing up blood and the spit-lemonade cocktail drips from her forehead as she barely remains conscious.

Raven looks on at the brawl as she exits the ring with a Cheshire smile. Mocking AJ Lee by twirling her hair and skipping up the ramp in Mickie James/Christy Hemme fashion, she hold the GZWA Women’s title high in the air before disappearing behind the curtain.

*** Main Event (2 out of 2): Steel Cage Match ***
Pinfall/Submission/Escape to Win
"Voluptuous Vixen" Justice vs. "The Hardcore Monster" Carnage

Prof. X: I can’t believe that Justice is going through with this.
Francine: Like Amanda said earlier tonight, she’s been dodging Carnage for long enough. It’s well past the expiration date for that pending beating from Carnage.
The Carter: Beating? From the mood that Carnage is in, he looks like he’s ready to slaughter her once that cage door is locked shut.

Referee Earl Hebner signals for the door to be closed to start the match but Justice’s Chimbos storm the ring and attack Carnage from all angles, while Justice leans back against the ropes in the corner and enjoys the sight in front of her.

Prof. X: This isn’t right! Someone stop this, dammit!!
Francine: It was wise for our co-owner to have a plan going into this match. Otherwise, it would have been career suicide to walk out here without one.
The Carter: Thank goodness.

The Chimbos assault Carnage and dogpile on top of him to cease his resistance. With Carnage defeated, they drag him to his feet and hold him in place in the center of the ring. Justice strode towards Carnage and slapped him against the face. Carnage struggles to get free, but the Chimbos hold him at bay. Justice leans in to mock Carnage by kissing him on the forehead like a well-behaved child, but the Hardcore Monster headbutts the Voluptuous Vixen in the nose.

The Carter: No, not the face! Carnage may have broken Justice’s beautiful nose!

While holds her face in pain, Carnage powers out of the grasp of the Chimbos. They race to regain their control but Carnage greets them with an explosive fury of a Double Clothesline to the incoming pair and slamming the next pair of Chimbos with a Double Chokeslam.

Prof. X: The Chimbos didn’t come prepared for this type of punishment from the Hardcore Monster.
Francine: I hope their health insurance is all paid up. Carnage is going to send all of them out of here in a few ambulances tonight.
The Carter: Someone needs to get Justice out of there!

Two Chimbos are left, with one tending to Justice while the other is scrambling to get the keys from Hebner to unlock the door. As soon as the Chimbo manages to get the keys, Carnage lifts him onto his shoulders and drives the poor unfortunate soul to the canvas with the Burning Hammer (Reverse Death Valley Driver). Justice slaps the remaining Chimbo over the side of his head to urge him into action while she climbs the side of the cage. The Hardcore Monster disposes of the last Chimbo with ease with a Spinning Side Slam. Carnage then reaches up the side of the cage and yanks Justice down in one smooth motion by her blonde ponytail.

Francine: This would be a perfect job for Superman, but Cena was already out here earlier tonight to save Nikki.
Prof. X: In either case, this is going to end ugly…

Carnage taunts Justice with the keys by waving them in her face before throwing them outside of the cage. Justice has no choice but to fight now with all of her Chimbos out cold and scattered around the ring.

The Carter starts up a “Fight!” chant to rile up the rest of the live crowd.

She starts off with an Inverted Jawbreaker to release his grip on her ponytail and sprints towards the ropes. The Voluptuous Vixen rebounds from the ropes with a Springboard Dropkick to send Carnage reeling. This isn’t enough to knock the Hardcore Monster off his feet. With the Monster teetering, Justice climbed the turnbuckle and delivered a Diving Double Axe Handle, followed by another. Then another - until Carnage caught her out of the air with hand firmly grasped around her throat for a Chokeslam. Just as the Hardcore Monster slammed her to the canvas, Justice lands the Blind Justice (Eat Defeat) simultaneously, thus rendering Carnage dazed in the corner from the blow and Justice writhing on the canvas. Slowly, Justice returns to her feet and struck Carnage in the corner with a Clothesline and continued her offense with a Bulldog from the corner. Carnage shoved her away and into the ropes. Justice hit the ropes, only to fall victim of the pending Powerslam to the canvas. Carnage follows up with a standing fist drop to the face before going for the cover.

One…
Two…
Thre---NO!!

Carnage lifts Justice’s shoulder off the canvas to break the pin as Referee Earl Hebner looks confused. Carnage dragged Justice closer to the corner before the Hardcore Monster revealed his true intentions. He climbed up the turnbuckle and signaled for a Flying Splash.

Prof. X: She’s a woman, dammit!!
Francine: Hey, she knew what she was getting into when she signed up to be a wrestler and even more so before she stepped into that cage tonight.
The Carter: (Covers eyes) I can’t watch...

Justice kipped up to her feet and stopped Carnage with a Jumping Enzuigiri to the face, causing the Hardcore Monster to double over on the top rope. Justice then climbs the turnbuckle and uses his body as a stepping stool to position herself closer to the top of the cage. Carnage shook off the cobwebs and motioned to stop the Voluptuous Vixen from escaping. Justice looked below and reacted with a Corner Hurracanrana to the Hardcore Monster. Justice wasn’t able to flip Carnage down to the canvas as Carnage hoisted her back up and countered with an Avalanche Powerbomb to the canvas.

Once again, Carnage doesn’t go for the win, but instead the Hardcore Monster is dead set on inflicting as much pain to the Voluptuous Vixen as possible. A sinister smile washes over Carnage’s face as he watched Justice lay helpless on the canvas.

Francine: Carter, where are you going?

Carter grabs keys that are tossed out of the cage by Carnage and climbs the cage himself. Once inside, Carter tries to stop Carnage by standing in front of the ailing Justice.

Prof. X: Carter must have a deathwish tonight.
Francine: Say what you want, but I’m enjoying this. I have been dying to see Carter get the holy hell beat out of him.

Carter stood in front of Carnage completely terrified as the Hardcore Monster drew closer. He dug into his wallet and presented Carnage with a $10 bill. Carnage slapped the money away and chokeslams him to the canvas while Justice scrambles up the side of the cage and Earl Hebner pockets the discarded money.

Prof. X: Quit laughing, Francine. We’re watching Carter die out there!
Francine laughs, “Carnage might have spared him if Carter wasn’t such a damn cheapskate!”

Carnage grabs Carter off the canvas with his hand around his throat and readies him for a powerbomb when he notices Justice almost over the top of the steel cage. Carnage uses Carter like a battering ram as he sends the color commentary crew member soaring through the air with a Running Release Powerbomb into the side of the cage. The sheer force of the blow knocks down the side of the cage, causing both Carter and Justice to inadvertently fall down to the floor. Earl Hebner signals for the bell and quickly races out of the ring before Carnage took out his frustrations on him.

Prof. X: Justice may have picked up the win, but Carnage easily won this as far as I’m concerned. Good God Almighty, look at the destruction that this one Superstar has made of the cage and Justice’s bodyguards!
Francine: And exactly why does Justice keep picking fights with this guy? In either case, Christmas came early this year for me, thanks to Carnage disposing of Carter like yesterday’s garbage.

Backstage, CM Punk is shown on the phone wrapping up a conversation.

CM Punk: “Dean-o’s still in the hospital and most of the guys in the back here are too afraid to cross the boss after what his goons did to Big E. I hate to quote the Stinger, but it’s almost showtime and I still don’t have a partner for this thing tonight.”

Punk listens to his caller.

“Yeah, yeah, yeah. I’m not going to put you through all of my drama. You have enough authority figures digging up your ass after that ordeal you had to put up with at New Orleans last Sunday. By the way, congratulations with all of that and the wedding coming up. Lisey and I are going to try to make an incognito appearance. I don’t want her getting any ideas about that anytime soon.”

Punk looks off camera and sees an individual sitting in the shadows off to himself.

“Hey, lemme call you back. I think I just found what I was looking for…” Punk hung up his phone and continues, “I didn’t think I would find you back here. Care to help me out with my rat problem tonight?”

??: “I didn’t think I would be wearing this mask ever again either. I don’t have anything left anymore. No reason to keep fighting, no reason to be here… but I’ll fight your battle tonight. When do we get this show on the road?”

CM Punk: “All in due time, my newfound friend. All in due time.”

---

---

Prof. X: I wonder who CM Punk was talking to earlier?
Francine: I guess we’re going to find out in a moment, Professor.
The Carter holds an ice pack to his forehead and back, “Franny, I want you to do me a favor. The next time I decide to do something heroic, shoot me in both legs for I can stay right here.”
Francine: Sure, Carter, but don’t be surprised if I hit something other than your legs. I don’t have good aim...

*** Tag Team Tournament - Preliminary Round ***
The Enforcers (Dequan Wallace & G-Money Briggs) vs. “Best in the World” CM Punk & ??

CM Punk: "Tonight’s been an emotional roller coaster, huh guys? Justice rehires me, then kicks me in the groin, just because she can… The Enforcers thought it was cute to beat up my partner for this match before it could even start so I had to go on the search for yet another star attraction to team up with the Best in the World. Oh and last but not least, we saw Lise Starr come back to GZWA and beat the holy hell out of AJ Lee… I’m sure AJ will be skipping with a limp after Lise gets done with her.

Don’t worry guys I’m not going to drag this out… It’s the moment you’ve been waiting for. Who is CM Punk’s partner tonight?" 

CM Punk looks towards the Titantron as The Enforcers stand in the ring waiting patiently.



Prof. X: It’s Suicide in GZWA!!! But how did Punk know he was here in the arena tonight?
Francine: I guess CM Punk must have a lot of luck on his side tonight. I wasn’t even aware that Suicide even signed a contract with GZWA.

Suicide and CM Punk slide into the ring together as Referee Earl Hebner signals for the opening bell. The match starts with Punk, Suicide, and The Enforcers staring down in the ring. CM Punk steps forward beckoning The Enforcers to make the first move while Suicide holds his ground.

Prof. X: What the hell!!

The live crowd and commentary teamall gasp in unison when Suicide removes his mask and it’s the GZWA Chairman himself, Xion Zeros. Xion attacks Punk from behind to knock him down on all fours, leaving him ripe for The Enforcers to stomp on the Best in the World repeatedly.

Prof. X: NO, NOT THIS WAY, DAMMIT!!
Francine: So much for CM Punk’s grand return back to GZWA… Seems more like another good-bye party to me. The Enforcers are going to put Punk on the shelf permanently.

All three men assault Punk until Suicide’s theme hits again as the REAL Suicide swings down to the ring on a zipline to Punk’s aid. Suicide lets go of the zipline and falls into the arms of Briggs and Wallace with a Diving Cross Body. Unfortunately for the Dark Savior, he’s dropped onto The Enforcer’s knees in Double Gutbuster to counter.

Xion Zeros is directing traffic, calls for The Bullet (The Pounce) on the waking CM Punk. Punk moves out of the way, causing Dequan Wallace to hit the GZWA Chairman instead. Dequan curses himself for the mistake. G-Money shoves him for his mistake inadvertently into CM Punk, who hoists him onto his shoulders for the Go To Sleep. G-Money races to his aid but Suicide stopped him in his tracks with a Running Double High Knee. Suicide then transitions into a Double Knee Facebuster while Punk simultaneously drops Dequan to the canvas with a GTS. The duo goes for double pins while the crowd counts in unison.

ONE…
TWO…
THREE!!!



Prof. X: There you have it, folks. CM Punk and Suicide take advantage of the confusion to pick up the win to close out tonight’s Primetime. Stay tuned for ReAction.
