ReAction -- Primetime 4-25-14

[Xion Zeros]

This Episode's Topics:

• Tonight's opening contest saw Samuel Shaw defeat John Cena after terrorizing Nikki Bella. Christy Hemme ceased Shaw's post-match attack and gave herself willingly to Shaw. Was is this arrangement that she agreed to with him?
  
  
• "The Marvelette" Lauren Riley, "The Canadian Firecracker" Ruby Cooper, "Sexy Senorita" Stacie Sanchez-Torres, and Tennel Blade put the Divas division on notice with another amazing contest tonight, but it was ended prematurely by the interference of The MisFits' own Casey Cortez and Laura Jackson laying waste to all of the competition. What emotions are going through these Divas' minds after this vicious assault?
  
  
• Lita appeared on tonight's broadcast and announced would be debuting on the GZWA roster in the near future. What do the other members of the Divas roster have to say about the Queen of Extreme's upcoming debut?
  
  
• Ladies of Doom's "The E.N.D." Endee Leights (w/ "Lady So Divine" Delta Madison) defeated The Fallen's "Anti-Diva" Paige (w/ "The Emo Warrior" Jimmy Jacobs) in singles competition tonight. What choice words does these two teams have for each other when they face each other at Final Encounter in the Winners' Bracket Semi-Finals of the Tag Team Tournament?
  
  
• "The King of Controversy" Genesis revealed that he was the brother of "The Unholy Angel" Kayda Erikson and she is his mentally disturbed sister. Genesis mindgames allowed him to cost Kayda and Hano Eiyu their match in the Tag Team Tournament, but later backfired when Serena Dent named Kayda Erikson the special guest referee to the recently announced triple threat main event for Final Encounter for the GZWA World Heavyweight Championship. What is going through the minds of "The Phenomenal One" AJ Styles, "The People's Champion" Hano Eiyu, Genesis, and Kayda Erikson after this turn of events?
  
  
• The Queen Bee Mafia's own "Showstoppin' Senorita" Mariah and "Georgia Peach" Morgan Davis put up a strong effort, but ultimately were eliminated from the Tag Team Tournament, thanks to The MisFits' own "Queen of Submission" Casey Cortez and "Tattooed Beauty" Laura Jackson. What does the Hardcore Harlot have to say about Laura and Casey disobeying her orders on not inflicting harm to her sister, Mariah?
  
  
• Why did Amber Torres attack "Straight-Edge Vixen" Tia Brooks in tonight's main event and left Leon Torres alone to be fed to the wolves known as The Enforcers? 
  
  
• The Bradleys reigned supreme against the combined efforts of The MisFits (Casey Cortez, Rose Cortez, Laura Jackson, and "Hardcore Harlot" Amanda Cortez) and "The Hardcore Monster" Carnage, but is "The Next Level" Mike Bradley ready for the challenge of defending his Television Championship against both Amanda and Carnage at Final Encounter?
  
  
• Tyler Storm won and advanced in the Tag Team Tournament without a partner in his corner, defeating Norm Fernum and Dewey Barnes. Will Tyler continue to go it alone in the tournament or will he sought out a partner?
  
  
• "The Ultimate Vixen" Raven and "The Statement" Victor Phillips defeated "The Best in the World" CM Punk and "The Dark Savior" Suicide, thanks to some foul play and noteworthy help from The Enforcers. What is going through the Best in the World's mind after yet another setback?
  
  
• After being fed to the slaughter of the combined efforts of the seemingly reunited Heartbusters ("Heartbreaker" Lise Starr and "The Black Widow" AJ Lee), "The Beautiful Dragon" Mei Long had Raven's number. Is the Women's Championship coming back home to the Beautiful Dragon or does the Ultimate Vixen have a few more aces up her sleeve in her bag of tricks for their rematch at Final Encounter?
  
  
• Tonight's broadcast ended with The Heartbusters' partnership dissolving immediately following their win in tonight's main event. With both Divas seeming evenly matched, who is going to come out on top at Final Encounter?

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

After the show is over and Amanda has lost her match she's back in her locker room and really pissed. The whole match was a chaos and at the end she got disqualified because Casey has knocked out Bradley's sister Danielle. Now the whole team sots there and argues and eventually Amanda shuts them up. She glares at her younger stepsister.

“What the fuck have you done this time? It's good to interfere, but only when the referee doesn't see it. You're really too stupid. It seems all these steroids have destroyed your brain.”

Now it's Casey's turn to be a bit offended. She glares at Amanda.

“You really shouldn't talk to me like this, I'm your sis. And I saved you. If I wouldn’t have interfered, you would have been hurt really bad. By the way, you have no reason to be pisses, at least you were the one who knocked me and Laura out, instead of these damn Bradley's. So you better keep quiet.”

But it's not so easy to stop Amanda when she's angry.

“Ok, that may be true, but don't forget that you also didn't obey to my orders and tried to injure Mariah.”

Casey raises a hand.

“Fuck Mariah ….who cares about this stupid bitch.”

“I do, she's my sis too and we had a deal.”

The arguing goes on for a bit longer and slowly they both don't know anymore what to say, but then Rosé gets involved too.

“Hey, now stop the troubling. Ok, that match was crap, but who cares? It wasn't for the title, so it doesn't matter who won it. The only thing that counts is that Mandy wins her next match and that Casey and Laura are in the next round of that tournament. And now both of you shut up.”

Before Amanda or Casey can say anything, she steps between them and shoves Amanda on a chair. Amanda is a bit taken by surprise and she wants to protest, but she loves Rosé and she's happy too that the trouble with her aggressive younger sister is stopped.

“Maybe you're right. It makes no sense to argue any longer. So let's forget the whole thing and talk like friends again. It seems that Rosé is right and that we should listen to her. All that counts is that we showed that we are a strong team and that we stick together.”

Now also Casey calms down. She bends forward and kisses Amanda on the cheek.

“That's true and pretty soon we will have all these titles. Then everything is good.”

Then the scene fades to black.

[Heartbreaker]

Directly after the end of the show, at the backstage of the arena, we see AJ Lee running and constantly looking back, before turning a corner and looking in both directions to see if Lise Starr is chasing her, finding that she is nowhere to be seen. AJ lets out a sigh of relief and slides into a sitting position on the wall, covering her mouth with her hands as she laughs loudly at humiliating Lise in the ring earlier, until she suddenly is knocked to the floor, with Lise on top of her, holding AJ down by her wrists with her hands and leaning her knees on AJ’s legs, keeping her on the floor. She still has large parts of AJ’s phlegm dripping from her face and a terrifying expression of vengeance on her face as she stares down at AJ.

Lise spits back into AJ’s face and gets off of her, giving AJ a kick in the ribs as she does this. AJ groans in pain while also shaking her head, unable to resist the disgusting spit coating her face. Not wasting time, Lise pulls up AJ by the hair and throws her back first against the wall, as AJ releases a squeal of pain. “Hey bitch, we got a match coming up very soon. We haven’t decided on the stipulation yet, have we?” Lise says, cracking her knuckles. Coughing and holding her ribs, AJ looks up at Lise with rage in her eyes. “You’ll be lucky if we decide on one that leaves you still standing, sis…” Suddenly, a sick grin grows onto the face of Lise. “...Congratulations on deciding your own demise. Last Woman Standing it is.”

Suddenly, Lise runs up to AJ and goes to plant a punch in her jaw. Reeling back from Lise’s fist hitting her, AJ leaps forward and smacks her head into her while also jumping on top of her, putting her hands on her throat. “You’re on, pal! Good luck surviving that, because I’m going to make sure that you stay down not just for a ten count, but the rest of your LIFE!” She continues choking Lise while her eyes grow madly. Lise tries to remove AJ’s hands from her throat while stumbling. She manages to bump back into the wall, causing herself and AJ to fall to the ground. After hitting the floor, both women get to their knees and start throwing punches, elbows and claws at each other.

As their fight continues to escalate, they are soon torn apart from each other by backstage personnel, with several people holding them apart at once while they desperately reach to kill each other. “THIS ISN’T OVER, LISE! I WILL KILL YOU!” Lise laughs in a manner that seems to be between mocking and hysterical. “Ha! It’ll be over once Final Encounter comes, enjoy your last few weeks obsessing over me!” Despite appearing to be less serious, Lise still has the look of murder in her eyes, trying to get through the people blocking her. AJ shows less subtlety, screaming like a banshee and trying to force her way past the blockade of people despite being held up by more than one person, being forcibly dragged away.

Backstage, Genesis is shown dressed back into his street clothing. As he proceeds to put his ring gear into his bag. As he puts the last remaining articles of clothing into his bag, he speaks to the ReAction camera crew.

Genesis: "I'm going to keep this short and sweet, because I'm going to have more than PLENTY to talk about at Final Encounter. What you saw tonight at Prime-Time was a blessing in disguise. You would think that I would be 'upset' with all the changes happening to the main event. Instead? I couldn't more HAPPIER! See, not only will I get the golden opportunity of humiliating AJ Styles and Hano Eiyu all in one match, but I also get to do this in front of my family! How sweet is that? After three long and frustrating years, it's come down this match. This... THIS is make it or break it time. At Final Encounter, I plan to BREAK alot of bones and MAKE history! No one.... and I mean NO ONE is going to stop me from achieving my dream. Not AJ Styles. Not Hano Eiyu. Not Xion Zeros. Not any other Authority Figure. And certainly, not my sister, 'Genna'."

*Genesis zips up his bag, flings it over his shoulder and says*

Genesis: "See you all at Final Encounter. Trust me, you are NOT going to want to miss this!"

*Genesis says with a wink and a smile, as he walks off.*

[The Bradley Clan]

Mike and Danielle Bradley make their way back to their locker room after standing tall over Carnage and the MisFits on Primetime. They're more upbeat than they have been in recent weeks, but Mike is furiously rubbing his face in his hands.

"Mike, calm down dude, I know you got thrown into Carnage's crotch, but it was accidental..."

"Yeah, but I don't want to give Cortez any fuel for her obsession over questioning  my sexual orientation. Fucking bitch... I swear, when we get in the locker room, I'm taking a shower and using all the soap in the world on my face."

Christy Hemme approaches the Bradleys before they can head in.

"Mike, Danielle, you really turned things around this week after a couple of shows where the MisFits got the best of you. Is this the momentum you need to take down the Tag Team Tournament and, in Mike's case, retain the TV Title?"

"Honestly, we got tired of getting pushed around by a pack of butch lesbians. We know we're tougher than that, and we decided we're not going to stand for it anymore. Carnage thought he could join the party, but he got dispatched just as easily tonight. It's only a sign of things to come for all of them at Final Encounter."

"But we're still taking no chances in the TV Title match. I'm going to be armed with The Great Equalizer to make sure not one of Cortez's pussy posse tries to steal the title that rightfully belongs to my brother."

"The Great Equalizer?"

"It's our nickname for Mike's kendo stick."

"Ah, I see. Well, Mike, best of luck to-"

Mike puts a hand up to Christy's face.

"Christy, as has been established between my sister and I before... luck is for losers."

Mike and Danielle go into their locker room, with Danielle patting Christy on the shoulder on the way in. All of a sudden, Mike peeks his head out of the door.

"Oh, and Amanda, as long as we're spreading vile rumors about people's sexual orientation... don't act like you and your girlfriends want this. You can't have this, but you can look at it all you want. And while you're distracted, I'm going to choke you out and retain my GZWA Television Title!"

And if you don't know... now you know!

Then Mike finally closes the door.

[Chris Matthews]

Scene comes ups backstage and we see Jimmy Jacobs sitting on a chair. He knows that when something bad happens that means something good follows right by it. He gets up from the chair and he looks at the camera.

*Jimmy Jacobs*

"I will admit the LOD is a tough team, but you see the Fallen is so much better. LOD is just another team that is going to realize that they may have won is singles matches, but when it comes to Tag team that the Fallen is the best here. Ladies, coming final encounter you are going to be in for a disappointment. You are going to realize that you don't have what it takes to be better then us. Me and Paige are the best in the tourny, you two are just the stepping stone that we need to make it to the top."

He smirks.

*Jimmy Jacobs*

"You two ladies are going to see what a true team is like. Everyone fan out there knows that we are the top pick of the team, this week you got lucky, but at Final Encounter, you tag team dream will come to a complete stop, cause at the end of this tournament the Fallen will be the new tag team champions. We will see you there Ladies."

He then walks off as the scene fades to black.

[Xion Zeros]

The scene opens with Mariah getting up from laying across the table in the on-site doctor's office backstage.

Doctor: Good news, there's nothing wrong with you from what I can tell, just that you're going to be pretty sore in the morning. Try to take it easy over the next few days while I review your X-rays to make sure.

Mariah breathes a sigh of relief, "Thank goodness. Amanda's lesbian Legion of Doom were trying to kill me out there."

Without knocking, Tia Brooks barges in holding her head with a look of frustration, "Doc, I need you to check my head. I can't believe that backstabbing...."

Tia stops and looks over at Mariah. "Well look who it is!"

Doctor checks Tia's responses and checks her nose, "Much like Miss Cruz here, nothing is broken and no signs of a concussion either..."

Tia takes a sigh of relief that she isn't seriously injured. "Thanks Doc."

Mariah frowns, "Look Tia, I'm sorry. I wouldn't hold anything against you if you're upset that Amber lost it out there... It should've been me taking that abuse from her." 

Tia turns her attention back to Mariah.

"MiMi, you don't have to apologize, your sister does. I can't believe I trusted her and taken her word. I thought everything was mended like sunshines and rainbows, but obviously a dark cloud came over her head. Nobody should have to take abuse from her but little miss Raven who is the cause of her to act the way that she is."

Mariah shook her head, "I'm not completely convinced that she's sold her soul to that little devil. I refuse to believe my innocent little sister is capable of that. There has to be something else going on here."

Tia raises her eyebrow, "Well whatever it is, I'm going to get down to the bottom of it, because at Final Encounter, I'm going to face Amber one on one. Don't worry, I wont bang her up too much, just enough to knock some scene into her head and for what she did to me tonight. Trust me MiMi, I am concerned about your sister like she is my own since you are a Queen Bee."

Mariah hands Tia an ice pack for her head, "Do what you have to do, Tia. I know I wouldn't take that sitting down either. First, I caused Katie to leave us, then I turned Paige against us, and now look, I'm leading Amber down the wrong path too. I dunno if I'm cracked up for this leadership role or being a Queen Bee of anything anymore.."

Tia's eyes grow big, "What did you just say? Mariah, you are an incredible leader. Don't let a few bad apples let you think any different. We all have to sacrifice things or even people we love just to do the right thing, trust me, I know this from experience. But I am not going to relive that because we need to remember to let go of the past and keep moving forward to the future. The Queen Bee Mafia is one of the best things that has happened to my in my whole wrestling career besides winning championships of course."

Mariah shrugs, "I just don't know, Tia. Just look at what happened tonight. It was my fault that QBM are out of the Tag Team Tournament and you got hurt because I pushed Amber too hard. We're supposed to be setting the bar for the rest of the girls in the company and I'm just leading us to failure at every turn. It was easy to look after my own skin for all of these years, but now it's different. I don't want to get you and Morgan hurt because of my mistakes. You're both like family to me."

Tia nods her head, "I understand and I'm gonna let you have time to think it through, but just know that I am here for you whenever you need to talk. As for QBM, we are a group of strong women and usually can handle any challenge that comes in our way win or lose. But mostly win." Tia giggles, "We are gonna be family for life no matter what happens. They say that being a relative doesn't mean you are family, it is the positive people that you keep around that really cares."

Tia hugs Mariah.

Mariah hugs her back, "Thanks, Tia. I just need to clear my head. I'm going to head out. I'll call you and Morgan later."

"Speak to you later MiMi." Mariah leaves the Doctor's office as Tia waves bye.

[Xion Zeros]

OOC: Two additional ReActions I almost forgot to post before the PPV.

Earlier tonight, we saw Samuel Shaw's vicious assault on John Cena. Cena found himself in Shaw's cross hairs while trying to protect Nikki Bella from Shaw's wrath after she wasn't showing any interest in Shaw's advances. Before Shaw could inflict further harm to the unconscious Cena, who fell victim to Shaw's Kata-gatame, Christy Hemme raced into the ring and urged Shaw to stop as she agreed to "give him what he wanted..."



While the GZWA Nation were left to wonder why Christy Hemme chose to play the part of the martyr to save others for the duration of the broadcast, the ReAction cameras continued to follow Shaw and Hemme from a rather safe distance.

Samuel followed Christy Hemme silently into the parking garage towards her car, until he broke the silence between them and pinned her against the nearby support pillar.



The Creepy Bastard | Samuel Shaw: "I'm sick of waiting, Christy. You're not the negoiator anymore. You promised to give me what I want..." He took a moment to caress her cheek. "You promised to give me what I desire..."

Rockin' Redhead | Christy Hemme: "All in due time, Samuel. Just be patient..."

"I'm THROUGH being patient. I'm not going to let you ignore me like Nicole, Christy."

"I'm not ignoring you, Samuel! I'm right here!"

"That's not good enough. I need you closer... much, MUCH closer."

Christy Hemme turns her head away from him as Shaw pressed his body against hers and leaned intimately closer. An audible groan escapes his lips as his eyes drift downward after feeling the impact firsthand from Christy Hemme kneeing him firmly in the groin. As Samuel Shaw backs away from her involuntarily and falls to his knees, Christy Hemme placed her arm over his shoulders.



"There's something I have been meaning to tell you, Samuel. I'm THROUGH being a victim. I'm not afraid of you anymore. Unfortunately, this is where our tale ends. I wasn't lying when I said I was going to give you what you wanted. I'm giving you exactly what you want, Samuel -- someone to hold and embrace you. Sadly, it won't be me. You'll be embracing YOURSELF... right after you get secure into that fancy new jacket my friends have for you."

Several psychiatric nurses restrain Samuel Shaw in a straight jacket and drag him into a nearby van.  Christy Hemme looks back and smiles at Samuel Shaw's cries of anguish as they strap him down in the van before driving away.

GZWA Commissioner Serena Dent is shown entering her office after tonight's broadcast has come to an end. She maneuvers around her desk towards her chair and stops in her tracks as a gloved hand covers her mouth and held her in place. Her eyes go wide with shock from this attack from her mysterious assailant only to have her eyes dart back towards the door as a figure steps out of the shadows of behind the door. He shuts and locks it in one smooth motion.



Best in the World | CM Punk: "You can let her go. She's not going to cave. It's not her style."

Dark Savior | Suicide: "Are you sure? She does work for our enemy."

"Quit the melodrama and let her go."

"Fine, you're the boss."

Suicide releases Serena Dent who spun around and slapped him across the face in one smooth motion.

"Careful, he might grow to like that."

Serena sat down in her chair as Suicide held his face while CM Punk stepped forward.



GZWA Commissoner | Serena Dent: "What's this all about, Mr. Brooks? I thought you were satisfied with your renewed contracts for you and Miss Lucia."

Punk rolls his eyes, "You know what this is about. The only reason why I wanted back into this dump. It's about your boss - Xion. You know his buddies in The Enforcers are going to pull every dirty trick out of the book at Final Encounter. I want insurance that we're not going to get a repeat of Slammiversary. No, I want your word. You're the only big wig around here I actually trust. I never liked Xion and I don't think anyone likes his air-head of an ex-girlfriend, other than those foreign objects on her chest, so you're all I got right now."

"Bold words, there. While I'm flattered that you actually trust me, but do know that I'm not on anyone's side in this petty feud between you and Mr. Zeros. I'm just a representative of the Board of Directors to make sure that our investments in this company are being put to good use."

"Don't give me that, Serena. You're just mad that you're not one of the League of Evil Exes."

Serena sighs loudly, "First of all, no thank you. I wouldn't want to touch you even if you paid me to. For your information, I'm happily married. You should try that sometime. Y'know, stick with someone for the long haul instead of bailing at the first sign of commitment..." 

"Punk doesn't like the 'C' word."

"Stay of this, Spider-Man."

"Fine, shutting up. Sheesh. You two bicker like you've dated or something."

Serena sighs again out of disgust before continuing, "Secondly, don't forget who is the authority figure in this room..."

CM Punk mumbles, "God, that sounds eerily familiar..."

"I have the power to fire you just as promptly as Mr. Zeros... BUT I could persuaded to reconsider your request if you were to ask me nicely."

"Serena, could you help me out here... PLEASE." 

Serena smirked, "Could you repeat that last part? I didn't quite hear you."

"PLEASE!"

"That's a good boy. You have my word, Mr. Brooks. I'll do everything in my power to make sure the match is fair. I can do that much for you, but you're on your own to beat The Enforcers."

"We're not worried. Spider-Man and I got our own plan for that match. We're going Marvel vs. Capcom-style on them at Final Encounter. Just wait and see."

"Good luck, boys."

As Suicide and CM Punk motion to exit Serena's office, Punk stops and says, "Thanks."
