[Chris Matthews]

Chris was walking backstage, after his match where Jaser had the balls to attack him. Chris is holding the back of his head. He wasn’t really in the mood to talk to anyone after that match.

REACTION | CREW

“Chris, can we get a word from you about what happened at there and why Jaser Cruz attack you?”

Chris furious right now looks at them

CHRIS MATTHEWS

“You want to know what happened at there, well lets me tell you exactly what happened. Jaser Cruz, is what I always said he was a coward, a lil numbskull. Jaser Cruz, is nothing more then brat. I beat him and I beat Mike Bradley, these two are nothing more then a couple of guys who claims they are the best. Even after he attacked me, I came out as the winner, and sooner or later Mike Bradley title will be win. Bradley can make all the claims and threats he wants, but we all know that in reality that I am better then him. Tonight he saw nothing, but if and when I face him for his television championship, then he will know that I’m the real deal and that they aren't in my league.”

He then walks off as the scene fades to black.

[Chris Matthews]

Jimmy Jacobs was backstage sitting on a crate and he is looking at his spike. He gets a small smirk on face as he looks up at the crew getting ready to ask him some questions.

REACTION | CREW
“First of all, congratulations on winning the match tonight and becoming the number one contender for the GZWA heavyweight championship. Now question for you Jimmy and that is, how will you walk out at devil may cry with that title, knowing the authorities will play in this part for carnage?"

Jimmy gets up from the crate.

JIMMY JACOBS
“The Authorities are nothing more than a bunch of sissys. Last time we meet i lost my title to him, because of CM Punk, this time it is a one on one with Carnage and this time, he will not walk out at Devil may Cry with that title, that title will be mine again, and this time, I have a lil challenge for Carnage if he wants to show that he is a monster then at Devil May Cry I challenge him to a Hell in a Cell match. He thinks he is a monster then he will have no trouble in accepting that match. And also for me those damn authorities will not be able to interfere. This way he can show his “monster” side and the idiots gets locked out.”

He smirks once again as the scene fades to black.

[❤Rose❤]

After her loss at the last Primetime show Casey is a bit frustrated, but it’s not too bad. At least it hasn’t been her fault that she has lost that match and so it’s ok for her. But what’s even more important for the strong young woman is the fact that she has reached her goal. With her provoking promo she has reached that she got a match against one of the strongest wrestlers of GZWA, against Brock Lesnar. This will be a great chance to show how strong she is and also to show what a woman can do in the ring.

Now she's back in her locker room and sits down on a chair. With a cold smile in her face she looks at the urn, that she found a few weeks ago.

“Ok, you said that me and Laura don’t care much for tag matches, but that’s not true. We do care and when we have to defend our titles then you all will see how much I care. I just don’t like it to get people in my team whom I don’t know. I need and I want partners whom I can trust, and Laura I do trust. But anyway.”

Again she looks at the urn and smiles.

“And now to that new match you threw me in. You thought that you could punish me by putting me in a match against Lesnar, but it’s no punishment, no, you did me a huge favor. Prolly you hope that he will destroy me, but there I have to disappoint you. Exactly this won’t happen. Eventually I can show what a woman can do in the ring and that we can be as strong as all these guys.
So after I’m done with this idiot you all will respect me. I will show that a real diva doesn’t know fear and that we can fight even better than most of the guys and what is better to prove this than destroying GZWA’s strongest wrestler?”

She winks into the direction of the camera and then she continues.

“And now one last thing. Don’t tell me that you have a strong women’s league at GZWA, cuz that’s not true. Ok, we have pretty many of them here, but these women are no wrestlers, they are stupid bimbos who have nothing better to do than to show their asses and tits. It’s a disgrace for the whole women’s wrestling and it’s a shame that these sluts are here in this company. They belong into a whore house and not into a wrestling ring.”

Now she stands up and puts the urn into her bag. Gently she caresses it and smiles.

“Oh …Lesnar …I have another little surprise for you ….”

Then she leaves her locker room and the scene fades to black.

[joanna]

The scene opens with Joanna Tarzanna, fresh off her victory over Veda Scott in the Queen of Queens tournament when she notices a camera crew in front of her. The Tarzan Girl stops and looks at the cameraman with a smile on her face.The ccamera pans up to Joanna's face "so, Joanna Tarzanna, how do you feel picking up the victory over Veda Scott and the authority?" The cameraman asks GZWA's resident amazon "I felt good, I wasn't happy about Veda Scott and her making fun of me, but I was happy that my friends Ashleigh Cash and Alice Shadow came out and encouraged Veda to enter the ring."

[The Legendary Doombringer]

The scene opens with Brock Lesnar raging backstage. Paul Heyman was trying the best that he could to calm his client down. Lesnar was throwing everyone he came across either into a wall or directly to the floor. He was obviously upset with the outcome of his match against The Undertaker. As the made his way down the end of the hallway, he seen Casey Cortez making her way to the parking out. Lesnar followed her out to the parking lot, waiting for the moment to strike.

He waited for her to get to her limousine before he quickly grabbed her and smashed her head into the side of the vehicle. Lesnar immediately went to pick Casey up off the ground, with her trying to fight back only for Lesnar knock her right back down. He quickly started to pound away at her before yanking her up off the ground before sending her right back down with a german suplex. He then snatched her up, putting her over his shoulders. He sent her crashing down with a huge F-5 onto the hood of her car. Heyman looked upon an unconscious Casey Cortez before yelling "Surprise!" followed by a laughter. She claimed that she had a surprise for them, but now it was looking to be the other way around. With a smile on Heyman's face, they left. With the camera's fading to black, the scene ended.

[The Bradley Clan]

Mike Bradley is backstage in the trainer's room getting ice on his head after his match with Chris Matthews on Primetime. Christy Hemme enters the room with the ReAction crew in tow.

"Mike, after your match with Chris Matthews tonight, has the thought of him possibly being added to your title match with Jaser Cruz entered the back of your mind?"

Mike shoots Christy a nasty glare.

"Well, his boot certainly entered the back of my mind tonight... but that's not the point. At this point, I won't be surprised one bit if he is added to the match. I never know what to expect with the bookers these days. I've seen enough twists and turns in my matches, even right before the bell is about to ring, to know that nothing is set in stone. But when I think about it, it doesn't matter. I've won two triple threat matches for the title before, and I should have won a third. If this does end up being a three-way dance, I might as well end up licking my chops, because then that means I get to tear them both apart at the same time!"

Mike winces as he raises his voice and holds his head.

"Shit... look, the point is, whether I face Cruz, Matthews, or both, I've got one job, and that's to walk out of Devils May Cry the same way I walk in - as GZWA Television Champion!"

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

Mike tosses the ice pack aside and hops off the trainer's table to go to his locker room, much to the shock of both Christy and the trainer.

[DΔShΞR]

The scene opens up backstage GZWA Primetime following Ravens match vs Ashley Wonder. Amber is backstage getting checked on by the med staff when her mother is rolled up suddenly Next her.

Amber†Torres OMG! Mom! Are you ok? What happened to you?

Ambers mom stirs a little bit and faintly lets out "Raven". As the word leaves her lips, Ambers heart drops. Her whole world seemingly stops as her fear turns to rage in a hot millie sec.

Amber†Torres Raven? You say Raven did this to you? I don't believe you. She loves you and would never. I swear Mariah has you wrapped around her fingers just like she did when we were growing up. Raven is my best friend and would never do something like this on purpose. You're no better than Mariah and I bet yall planned for something like this. I am done with this family.

Amber trows her bag of ice down and walks away as her mother looks on worried as the scene fades out.

[♡☈ɑ√əη]

Backstage on her phone, Raven was seen twirling her hair around her finger and smiling up a storm. Attacking a mother just days before Mother's Day and this devil in Prada was continuing with her day as if it didn't phase her. In fact, it really didn't bother her. Just knowing that she has got yet another one over Mariah was worth it.....as long as she was winning, casualties be damned.

raven. I'm guessing she'll be fine. I heard the ambulance leaving and whatever, yada, yada. ----------- I don't care. All I know is my priorities were in perfect order tonight. Marisol THINKS she can take what's mine and that's exactly what it's gonna stay: a damn thought. And if you really think about it, it's her own damn fault. SHE was the one who ducked. Her mother wouldn't even be in this position if Marisol didn't try to 'step up' and tell my division that she was better for them than Moi. ------------- Oh she's fine. We're actually going to go see the new Avengers tomorrow night.

Raven continues her conversation until....

morgan. Well well. If it isn't the scarlet.......bitch! Still grasping desperately for controversy.

Morgan Davis stands right behind Raven with her arms folded. After tonight's events, it's no mystery that Morgan was disgusted over Raven, as usual.

morgan. Of course your little dysfunctional relationship with your own momma would reflect you not even giving a damn about the wellbeing of someone else's.

Raven dips her head letting out a deep sigh before making a slow turn to meet eye-to-eye with Morgan.

raven. My mother and I have a great relationship. If you're referring to my step-mother, you can do what I've been wanting her to do for years....kick rocks and get the hell out of my face.

Turning her back to Ms. Davis, Rae went back to her phone call.

raven. Every damn time, her and her beady beads try to get all up in my bid-ness.

That comment from Raven left Morgan with her mouth open in shock, with a deadly glare and grunt afterwards.

raven. She's lucky I don't pluck her ass again right now.

Morgan has another way to interrupt Raven's phone call and gather her attention, and with that thought, she takes a quick turn from anger to tranquility, with one curious question to ask Raven.

morgan. Uh....who are you talkin to?

A rather puzzling approach after how direct Morgan always is. Raven abruptly ends her call making a full turn to face Morgan. These two mouthy Vixen's have never had a moment of peace together and this time looked to be no different.

raven. Don't you have somewhere to be? Like looking out for the ass beating you so rightfully deserve from Amber? What kind of trash-ass partner are you? To leave your teammate, your friends sister, hanging like that? HUH?!

A lesson in morals from Raven? HA!

Morgan strikes a sarcastic smile to Raven.

morgan. Me? I'm the last one she should be worried about or else she'll get her miniature ass handed to her. Again. You should be the one since you attacked her own mother in the middle of the ring for people to see. Made her and the rest of the Cruz family look like a laughing stock and shit. If I know Amber, she probably won't do anything because of how tight her and your clitoris are to each other.

raven. Always gotta say something out the pocket, ya nasty. Amber said it herself: if Marisol hadn't ducked, their mother wouldn't have gotten smacked in the kisser. I'm, like always, innocent in this. But, see, this is also another lesson for Marisol. She needs to learn her place in my division....literally 'ground zero'. You might not wanna step out of line either because you know sho'nuff you can get that ass clocked as well. Don't try it.

morgan. And what?! You are gonna bribe your ex-boyfriend again? Well, let me tell you this, you bleached blonde!

Morgan takes one step closer to where both women are face-to-face with each other.

morgan. You may be able to pull that hot ass mess on someone as selfless and giving as Mariah, or someone as dimwitted and delusional as Amber, but me?

Morgan adds in a chuckle before continuing with her statement.

morgan. This bitch isn't down with that, and as I've always said, I WILL ALWAYS CONFRONT YOU on it. Hell, ask your "ex-boyfriend" to bring another wrestler. I don't give a damn, because that won't stop me from getting to you. The next time you try that again to Mariah, or even myself and Tia, I will drag you by your black roots, and I'll snatch your belt in the process. Let that be a promise, heffa!

Raven adjusted the title on her shoulder and leaned back in an attempt to inch it away from Morgan. Raven may be a lot of things, but when it comes to the Vixen Title she plays no games....well, maybe some to make sure it stays clutched in her hands.

raven. Excuse the hell outta you?! Well how about this? Since I've already sent Tia back the doctor in need of a new spine, and I'll be making short work on stomping out the Flaming Chica's fire, how bout I teach you a thing or two? Yeah, that's what I'll do. Swat all you damn bees out the nest in my backyard.

morgan. You know that was cute, especially since the Queen of Queens tournament is still going on...and take a guess at who is still standing.

Morgan dramatizes the moment by scanning her eyes across the area, until she goes right back to Raven.

morgan. Umm..me! Juwanna Mann got knocked off the bracket by me, so what makes you think I won't do the same to "po' lil skinny ass" Amber? What even makes it worse for both you and Amber is that the very person you hired as your bodyguard is now too preoccupied to focus on what ya'll are doing. The moment ya'll try to call, or in Amber's case, "whine" for her, Juwanna will be paying ya'll dust once Casey gets a hold of her ass backstage. Now sip on that tea!

raven. You're just lucky that I didn't enter the tournament. I mean, let's be real..it IS named after Moi. Would've sent your ass packing faster than O.J. trying to catch a flight.

Morgan bursts out into loud laughter.

morgan. Bitch, keep your head out of your ass, because "let's be real". You are just pressed and depressed because...I might actually have a chance at winning this tournament. Also the tournament doesn't involve you waltzing your ass into it and controlling it like you do everything else. And you know what I'm aiming for when I win...

Morgan lowers her eyes to the championship belt on Raven's shoulders before looking back at Raven with a brief grin on her face.

Again, Raven leaned her shoulder back, covering the face of the Vixen Title....always protective of her baby. Giving Morgan a look that could kill three times over, Raven begins to walk off, damn near growling her last words at Morgan through clenched teeth.

raven. This is mine!

As Raven walks away, Morgan chuckles in satisfaction. Satisfaction that she got a rise out of Raven once again.

morgan. It won't be for long...

Morgan turns the opposite direction, exiting the camera view with three concluding words.

".. spoiled ass brat."

[Xion Zeros]

Tears run down the Showstoppin' Senorita's face as her mother opens her eyes at the local medical facility.

"Thank God that you're alright... I dunno what I would have done if I lost you, Mom."

"Marisol, dry your tears. It's going to take more than a bop on the head to take me out. I've outlived your devil of a father and I beat that silly little disease that the doctors thought was going kill me by the time you turned 20. Look, I'm still here and still going strong. One bump on the head isn't going to stop me."

Mariah nods, "But..."

"No but me, young lady. NO ONE tells Esmeralda Amarita Sophia Vega-Cruz what to do!"

Mariah held her head down, "Yes ma'am."

"Don't give me that... Look me in the eye when I'm talking to you. Where's your sisters and brother?"

Mariah stutters, "Amber had to attend to some... business with Jaser. At least Amanda cared enough to keep calling to check in."

"I remember Amber coming by briefly, but that child is as stubborn as her pig-headed father... Is she still following behind that jezebel that hit me?"

"Unfortunately, Amber thinks that we're still against her and holding her back in her career."

Esmeralda sat up in the bed, "Aye dios mio. Where the devil she got that idea from? I warned you both about keeping your legs closed but we've seen where that's gotten you and Amanda. How the devil she has a 16 year old son at her age is a mystery to me. I only pray for that child and ask the Lord to give me strength for dealing with the whole lot of you..."

"Raven... the same one that struck you, mother. I'm hoping after I beat Raven at the upcoming PPV, I can end this foolishness for good. Without the puppetmaster filling her head with lies, I'm hoping and praying that Amber comes back to her senses."

"That sounds like you have good intentions, Marisol, but I hate to inform you but Amber's had a dark side for quite some time now... It's something that came out after you left from home after high school - chasing that boy into this wrestling mess. You weren't around anymore and she just went into a dark place -- we argued a lot, but when she got old enough that she could follow you, she mellowed out a bit since she was excited to renew that bond you two had when you were kids. It seems like those emotions that she just brushed underneath the rug are back out full force and she wants to blame us for her failures and shortcomings."

"In a crazy way, I kinda knew that about her. I just wanted Amber to stay being my innocent little sister forever, you know? Then she got knocked up by Leon and had Dash so we can't say she's innocent anymore. Coupled with the fact that her and Jaser have so much pressure on their shoulders to live up to the Cruz family reputation of fame and success..."

"Fame? You know that I'm still not too fond of what you're all doing on your bodies in this sport, but respect your dedication and success that you have acquired. I don't want to see Jaser and Amber posing nude and doing fetish freak shows like Amanda just to impress people. My children are so much better than that. I raised you better than that. Tell Amanda if I see her walking around half-naked or naked again on TV, I'm going to hit her so hard that she'll turn into a nun... I want ALL of my children to be successful because it's something they want to and don't have to be ashamed to tell me about."

Mariah laughs, "Mom, I hate to tell you, but Amanda might like spankings..."

"I DON'T CARE! I'LL FIND SOMETHING THAT WOULD MAKE HER REGRET PISSING ME THE HELL OFF!!!"

"Mom, don't get so worked up or you might have a relapse... The doctor said you narrowly avoided a concussion."

"I didn't ask you for your medical expertise, Marisol. When are you going to shuddup and kick the ass of the bitch who put me in here?"

Mariah smirks, "Soon... VERY soon."

"That's my girl."
